Buck Sexton Team, Welcome to the 11 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 1: Freedom Hunt Free Style Friday is honest. We're in hype 12 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 1: of the holiday season right now. Last minute gift preparations 13 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,399 Speaker 1: going on. People going to check out the Big Tree 14 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: here in New York City at Rockfeller Center and do 15 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 1: whatever other Christmas stuff they like to do. And I 16 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,560 Speaker 1: got some news for you, those who care about these 17 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:17,720 Speaker 1: things that I'm willing to bet a lot of you do. 18 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:23,480 Speaker 1: Taxes are going down in this country. The latest and 19 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: most breaking of news today just can't just hit the airwaves. 20 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: Uh hit the airwaves just before I came on air, 21 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:37,759 Speaker 1: and that is that the GOP is well gup. Has 22 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 1: the votes, right, I mean, they they still could mess 23 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 1: it up, but they're probably not going to. It looks 24 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 1: like it is happening. It would be a one point 25 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 1: five trillion dollar tax cut over the next decade. It 26 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 1: would have some pretty important impacts on the US economy, 27 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: could spur a whole lot of hiring and investment and 28 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 1: good thing. In fact, you even had Bob Corker, who 29 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: for those of you who care, which I'm assuming it's 30 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 1: probably very few of you, but Bob Corker came along 31 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 1: for this one. He was initially a no. Maybe he 32 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 1: just wanted to get a little attention. He was initially 33 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 1: a no. But he has said, Bob Corker Tennessee that 34 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 1: he will come on board here. And Senator Marco Rubio 35 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 1: also known as Little Marco, which Tyron and I were discussing, 36 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: probably doesn't like to be called Little Marco. I've just 37 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 1: you know it. You know, they're the nicknames like Bush 38 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: would give people nicknames the White House that they liked, 39 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,639 Speaker 1: you know, you know, be like you know, you're you're 40 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 1: you're You're my pal. I'm gonna call you pal, you 41 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 1: know what I mean. But Little Marco, I don't know 42 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 1: about that. I think maybe maybe I should drop that 43 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 1: one from the description. Yeah, I think so, Yeah, that's it. Yes, okay, fine, 44 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: fair enough. Well the little Marco got I mean, pardon me, 45 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 1: Senator Rubio got his way. He is in fact Yese 46 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,360 Speaker 1: now it's stuck in my head. He got his way. 47 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 1: They made the child tax credit higher. Um, it will 48 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 1: now instead of being eleven, he wanted two thousand from 49 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 1: one thousand, with even that refundable. I'm sorry, it already 50 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 1: did that. Rubio wanted the amount of refundability to be 51 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: fourteen hundred dollars, and looks like he got it. It 52 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 1: made some adjustments here and there, but more or less, 53 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 1: it is a done deal. Um. So there you go. 54 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 1: You have taxes. Uh, you have taxes. It's gonna be 55 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,839 Speaker 1: better for the economy than what we have right now. 56 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: It's gonna be better for the economy than the current 57 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 1: tax regime. So it looks like I can't keep making 58 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 1: fun of Republicans for not getting anything done. It looks 59 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 1: to me like there will be something for them to 60 00:03:54,920 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: celebrate going into the new year. So the biggest things 61 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 1: here though, really have to do with the corporate tax rate. 62 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 1: As you know, Uh, it ended up being dropped from 63 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 1: thirty five. Big multinationals are gonna be getting a special 64 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 1: one time tax on money that they repatriate from overseas, 65 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: which is a good thing. And yeah, there's some other 66 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 1: stuff they did for s corporations and partnerships. I mean, 67 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 1: now I sound like a tax guy, like I work 68 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 1: at you know, H and R Block are one of 69 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 1: those places. But and I don't otherwise I know more 70 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 1: about this stuff. But yeah, a lot of taxes going down. 71 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 1: It is a big tax. Rick Trump said that it 72 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 1: would be a Christmas present, right, there will be a 73 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: Christmas present for America. It looks like that is going 74 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,359 Speaker 1: going to happen. Oh on Tyrone reminded me that there 75 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: are now seven brackets down from how many were there before. 76 00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:57,479 Speaker 1: I mean, as seven seems like a lot to me. 77 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: Ten twelve percent, twent two, thirty five, and thirty seven. 78 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 1: So there you have it. Um. Oh, and there's an 79 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 1: exemption on the state tax. So now it's more than 80 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: eleven million per person, So if you only if you're 81 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 1: more than eleven million dollars in terms of inheritance, does 82 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 1: the death tax apply. So there you go. So this 83 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:25,720 Speaker 1: could be great. I Look, the economy is already in 84 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 1: a lot of ways doing very very well. Uh, the 85 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 1: economy is strong right now, and I think this will 86 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: make it stronger. Um. The only people that get, uh 87 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: kind of a rough end of the deal here are 88 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 1: those who live in high tax states who lose the 89 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: ability to fully deduct state and local taxes. They're gonna 90 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 1: be paying a little more in that, but a lot 91 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 1: of other folks are gonna be getting a getting less, 92 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 1: getting less in terms of taxation. So there you go. 93 00:05:55,440 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 1: All right, Republicans, you got some stuff. You're man edged 94 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: to get something done. And uh, I have to stop 95 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:07,160 Speaker 1: making fun of the Congress. Well, I were celebrating a 96 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,119 Speaker 1: little early, and as a general rule, I hate celebrating early. 97 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:13,159 Speaker 1: But at this point, I don't know how they could 98 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: backtrack on it. Speaking of backtracking, do we know yet 99 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,600 Speaker 1: when frankin stepping down? Because I said he's got to 100 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: step down and you agree with me time. But it 101 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,599 Speaker 1: was supposed to be January all along. It was always 102 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,119 Speaker 1: gonna be January, okay, because people were calling me, you remember, 103 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 1: they were skeptical. I'm like, come on, he can't not 104 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 1: step down. But I I still I stamped with my 105 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 1: initial analysis, there's no way he can't step down. But 106 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 1: every time I see a report that he hasn't given 107 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 1: a date yet, I'm like, uh, maybe there's maybe that 108 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 1: would be a problem. So we'll see. Okay, other things 109 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 1: we're gonna get into this. I can't spend that much 110 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 1: more time talking about taxes. Just want to tell you guys, 111 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:54,719 Speaker 1: uh corkers in. Rubio is in and they got fifty 112 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 1: two votes as of now in the Senate. It's going 113 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,919 Speaker 1: to clearly pass in the House. Should happen Monday or Tuesday. 114 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: A Merry Christmas, everybody. Uncle Sam is gonna take less 115 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 1: of your private property away from you. That's that's what 116 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: we're celebrating here. Yea. I mean, I guess it's a 117 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 1: good thing. But there you have it. Well, we've got 118 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 1: some new stuff on the Russia investigation we'll talk about 119 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 1: this hour. Also the uh sexual harassment stories and the 120 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 1: the the political movement, and that's there's some new stuff 121 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 1: there that I want to talk to you about. I 122 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 1: think we might have finally started to see that this 123 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 1: is this is now becoming. We're gonna need to rain 124 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 1: this in a little bit. You know, there's a lot 125 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 1: a lot of bad people. There was a lot that 126 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 1: need to be cleared out right. The the sexual harassment 127 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: swamp had to be drained. I think a lot of it. 128 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: I think a lot of that's been done. And now, 129 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: at least in the very high profile cases, I know 130 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 1: sexual harassment is gonna be It's gonna be a problem forever. 131 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 1: By the way, I mean, this is not anything that 132 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 1: anyone's figured out how to stop. But now we're starting 133 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: to see cases that are a little more well, at 134 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 1: least people are saying one and they didn't do it. 135 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 1: So you gotta start with that, as opposed to a 136 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: lot of the other stuff we've seen the accuser saying no, 137 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 1: I didn't do it, and then also some of what's 138 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 1: being reported as a story that should go along with 139 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: all these others. Um I find myself as trying to 140 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 1: be a very honest and thoughtful, impartial observer of this. 141 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: I'm saying, I'm not sure this is this is this 142 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: is not in the same category. This doesn't go in 143 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: the same column as like the Weinstein spacey cosby all 144 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: that stuff doesn't go in the same same place. So 145 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 1: we'll get into a bit of that in the next 146 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 1: and ESPN has gotten dragged into this now, the very 147 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: public ESPN spat underway right now, so we'll talk. We'll 148 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 1: talk about that with Tyrone and and oh, I mean 149 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 1: it's Friday and it's the holiday season, so we're all 150 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: in a good mood, right, Let's do some action movie 151 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 1: quotes to hit it.

Buck? Hey? 190 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 1: Before I get to my quote, I've got a question 191 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,679 Speaker 1: for you. I was watching, uh, Patriot Games the other day, 192 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: which one. Oh I'm sorry Patrioch if not the Patriot Yeah, 193 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:22,719 Speaker 1: the Harrison Ford movie. Yes, yeah, no, I don't do 194 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 1: NFL we're boycotting. But anyway, Yeah, so with Harrison Ford 195 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 1: and there's Buck the Anna Les's somewhere in that building 196 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 1: and uh, my question is that? And then of course 197 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:35,960 Speaker 1: following with the Enemy of the State and so forth. 198 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: Uh was the technology that good back then? Really? What 199 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 1: they were showing us bits and pieces? Was it that good? 200 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 1: Or even better? Oh? You mean back in Patriot Games, 201 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 1: like when they saw the the feed of when they 202 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:54,679 Speaker 1: go into the satellites and uh, you know, I don't know, man, 203 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: I mean I was alive in the eighties and I 204 00:11:56,600 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 1: just kind of remember, like dost dis was like, yeah, okay, 205 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 1: maybe it was really ninties, but I remember, you know, 206 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 1: a CD then was like whoa, you know, it was 207 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,199 Speaker 1: like Caveman discovering fire. When you had a CD in 208 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 1: your hand. So I doubt that all this stuff. I 209 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: can't remember everything that's in there, but I doubt that 210 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:18,960 Speaker 1: it's it was an accurate depiction of what the technology 211 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 1: available was at the time. I mean, as you know 212 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:23,840 Speaker 1: everything that My favorite thing in movies is whenever somebody 213 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: has to hack something, it looks like they're in the 214 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 1: matrix and there's all these big cool screens and they're 215 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 1: just like typing away furiously on a computer, and I'm like, 216 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,079 Speaker 1: that's that's not what it That's actually not what it 217 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 1: looks like. That's they're like sitting there going through code 218 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 1: and it's really painstaking. And you know, it is not, 219 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 1: in fact the situation where you get to be like, uh, 220 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 1: you know, standing up and doing a dance routine and 221 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 1: you're hacking into the Pentagon. That's not how it works 222 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 1: from what I understand. Uh. I had my phone tap 223 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 1: back in the nineties by the f d I, and 224 00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,319 Speaker 1: I just wondered if it was that good. But that 225 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,959 Speaker 1: was another story. Apparently that's another story. Is that is 226 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 1: that is that family safer?

No, that's a good scene. James 265 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 1: Earl Jones was great as the well, he was an admiral, right, yeah, yeah, 266 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 1: he's the admiral and Admiral Greer I think was his name. Yeah, 267 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 1: I believe so did you ever read a Debt of Honor? Oh? Yeah, 268 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:43,440 Speaker 1: I did about about Mr Clark and how he's got 269 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 1: the the lady that he saves from like the human 270 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 1: trafficking prostitution ring. I was very young when I read that. 271 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 1: I was like, what is this? Do you remember how? Oh? No, no, 272 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 1: that's not Debt of Honor. I'm sorry. I'm thinking of 273 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 1: a different Clancy novel which was a Debt of Honor. 274 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: Is the one where he drives a into the White 275 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:02,880 Speaker 1: House in the joint session of Congress at the end, 276 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 1: right with the Japanese. Yeah, I was on a different way. 277 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 1: What's interesting about that is that Debt of Honor came 278 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 1: out in like nineties three oh yeah, before I know, 279 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 1: before planes were being weaponized. That it happened. Then people 280 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 1: were like, who could have ever thought this could happen? 281 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:21,160 Speaker 1: I immediately was like, Tom Clancy, this could happen apparently, 282 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:23,840 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, I know, he wrote all about it. Yeah. 283 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 1: For those who don't know Debt of Honor, it's a 284 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 1: joint it's well, it's a movie where the Japanese essentially 285 00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 1: orchestrate a way to retake their laws, some of their 286 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 1: lost territories from what they initially token and World War 287 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 1: two and including Guam, and then they basically said, look, 288 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 1: we took this stuff, we don't want to fight anymore. 289 00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 1: We've got nukes now. But this other guy, well, I 290 00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 1: guess we've already kind of spoil it. But they end 291 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 1: up running a plane into a joint session of Congress 292 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 1: and just basically taken out the entire US government. So yeah, 293 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 1: and there's a there's a part in the book where 294 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 1: CNN is actually helping the U. S military and they go, well, 295 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 1: we're in a mary can broadcast company, so we want 296 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,440 Speaker 1: to help the American military. Can you imagine that ever 297 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 1: happening in the universe we live in, um but that 298 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:11,359 Speaker 1: CNN would take sides and try to help our military. No. 299 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,920 Speaker 1: In fact, I I worry sometimes, and thank you for 300 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 1: calling in, John Shields Hide podcast listener, I worry sometimes 301 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:19,880 Speaker 1: that the meat I mean, I think the media does 302 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:25,359 Speaker 1: actually take the side of not our country. Sometimes the 303 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,920 Speaker 1: media decides that they will do things that they should 304 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 1: not and that are harmful, harmful to us so not 305 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 1: never mind, do they not necessarily help out the United 306 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:39,879 Speaker 1: States government. I think they actually sometimes are willing to 307 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,080 Speaker 1: hurt the United States government. And now I'm trying to 308 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: find the Tom Clancy novel that I was thinking of 309 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,960 Speaker 1: where Mr Clark is I remember I read in like 310 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 1: the fifth grade. I just picked it up somewhere and 311 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 1: now I can't find it. The Debt of Honor is 312 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 1: a great one though, that's one of his most famous ones. 313 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,160 Speaker 1: Highly recommend. This is actually good for me to start 314 00:17:58,200 --> 00:17:59,879 Speaker 1: thinking about this because as I'm going to be on 315 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:05,399 Speaker 1: vacation after the Christmas break, uh, there will be a 316 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:07,879 Speaker 1: good opportunity to finally read some books that are just like, 317 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:11,880 Speaker 1: read some novels for fun, something I don't usually something 318 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 1: I don't usually get an opportunity to do. So there 319 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 1: is that um alright eight four four n eight to 320 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:24,920 Speaker 1: five eight four four nine buck. By the way you 321 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 1: go through Tom Clancy's novelist, it's insane that guy wrote 322 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 1: so much and did it's it's incredible anyway.

We'll talk 327 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: about the latest on that and now, as if it 328 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,960 Speaker 1: wasn't clear enough, this is all just a partisan exercise 329 00:18:55,000 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 1: and nonsense.

But you know they were thinking about making 366 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,360 Speaker 1: that remaking that movie, and then they bailed and then 367 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,720 Speaker 1: because yeah, because I don't think you could make it anymore. 368 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 1: I think that movie would have would offend people today 369 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:02,159 Speaker 1: if you made it today, which is drive a lot 370 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:05,640 Speaker 1: of movies.

Hold Tyrone, could 372 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:13,160 Speaker 1: you make Mrs doubtfire today? I say no, on numerous levels. 373 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:15,679 Speaker 1: I don't think you could have a man dressing up 374 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 1: that way. I mean that's one of I think it's 375 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:20,639 Speaker 1: Robin Williams. I mean it's up there with certainly his 376 00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:24,159 Speaker 1: like top five most financially successful. It might be number one. 377 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 1: It was a big box. He's number one. At one 378 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 1: time it was top three grossing, highest grossing comedies in 379 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:32,680 Speaker 1: the history of Hollywood. Yeah. I don't think you could 380 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 1: do a man dressed up as a woman like that anymore. 381 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 1: And I also don't think even a lot of he 382 00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 1: does a lot of different accents of different ethnicities and 383 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 1: stuff over the court. Nope, no way, no no way. 384 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 1: I just like on on the TV side, you could 385 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:51,159 Speaker 1: not do All in the Family today, no way. The 386 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:52,920 Speaker 1: seventies you can get, you could not do All in 387 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,879 Speaker 1: the Family Archie Bunker to Jefferson's. You could not do 388 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 1: that anything. I got one that's even more, you could 389 00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:00,160 Speaker 1: not well not even more. But but also up there 390 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 1: with uh, the not being able to Missus Doltfire and 391 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 1: it will say the parodies of Mrs Doubtfire where they 392 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,600 Speaker 1: make it a horror movie on YouTube is actually pretty funny. 393 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 1: If you haven't seen that, I would recommend you check 394 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 1: that out. But there's something about Mary. No way you 395 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 1: could make that movie now, no way. I actually like, 396 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:19,919 Speaker 1: I wonder when it comes on I'm like, do they 397 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:25,360 Speaker 1: get complaints about this because it's it's it's uh, there's 398 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 1: some not just raunchy stuff. There's some like edgy stuff 399 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 1: in there. And that's the most current. That's late nineties, 400 00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:34,160 Speaker 1: isn't it. Yeah, but we think it was twenty years ago. 401 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:37,000 Speaker 1: Now it's a twenty year isn't that crazy thing? I 402 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,600 Speaker 1: hold where it's a twenty year old movie. But that 403 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 1: movie there's stuff in there that I'm like, oh no, 404 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 1: that would not that would not any of your Look 405 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:46,920 Speaker 1: if you haven't seen it, or you did see it, 406 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:48,719 Speaker 1: go back and watch it again.

I mean, 413 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 1: that is the book that I was thinking of. It 414 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:20,360 Speaker 1: came out in ninety three, so I was like thirteen 415 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 1: or twelve when I read that. I was younger. I 416 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 1: read that there's some stuff in that book. I was like, whoa, 417 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 1: it's a it's a great novel, is it. It's a 418 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 1: very well it's very well done. I mean, look, Tom 419 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 1: Clancy was was the master of that genre. I don't 420 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:37,560 Speaker 1: think anybody else has ever reached quite the same. You know. 421 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 1: He is the uh, the Michael Jordans, the the undisputed 422 00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:46,080 Speaker 1: king of the espionage international affairs thriller at least I 423 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:49,160 Speaker 1: think so, oh yes, it'd be one that I would 424 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 1: love to see a movie of. Oh yeah, actually they 425 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:53,719 Speaker 1: never made a movie of that one.

It was Without Remorse, which was 428 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: one of the first Tom Clancy novels I've ever read. Actually, 429 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:06,520 Speaker 1: I think it might have been the first, uh John 430 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 1: in Tennessee. Yes, John, Welcome the Hut. Hello Buck, thank 431 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 1: you for inviting me to the Freedom Hunt. Thank you 432 00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: for calling. Great to have you.

What are you some 436 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 1: kind of special forces guy or something? No, just a cook, 437 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:36,960 Speaker 1: just a lowly, lowly cook under siege. Oh my god, 438 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 1: we're gonna die. Absolutely Stephen Steven's finest work. When I 439 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:45,920 Speaker 1: was in New Orleans, I actually drove past a house 440 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 1: that he rented for a while and was living in 441 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 1: while he did the show Lawman.

Merry Christmas time, Merry Christmas to you. Okay, 457 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:51,879 Speaker 1: a couple of things. First action movie quote for you. 458 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:55,359 Speaker 1: All right, let's do it here we do. Hey, you 459 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,919 Speaker 1: want to be a farmer, Here's a couple of acres 460 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 1: and hit the buzzer. I don't know. It's actually a 461 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 1: little funny. It's a Last Action Hero right before it 462 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:13,200 Speaker 1: kicked somebody in the junk. I have seen Last Action Hero. 463 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 1: That does count as an action movie, clearly. I'm not 464 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 1: sure that is the most uh timeless line from what 465 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 1: was Remember that that movie was trashed by their critics. 466 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 1: I didn't think it was that bad. I mean, it's 467 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 1: a little hokey, and oh it came out at the 468 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:34,920 Speaker 1: same time as Jurassic Park, so it got annihilated. Then 469 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:36,679 Speaker 1: I didn't it's the same weekend. Yeah, I went up 470 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:40,119 Speaker 1: against Jurassic Park. That was not smart. Um, But oh 471 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:42,520 Speaker 1: you got something on corporate tax rates as well, Chris, 472 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:46,200 Speaker 1: let's talk some policy. Let's do. I was just curious 473 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:48,200 Speaker 1: and I've been listening to you for a number of 474 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 1: years now, and it's always been a big proponent of 475 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:53,879 Speaker 1: text cuts. But it seems like you're pretty held up 476 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 1: with this corporate tax rate cut. Maybe that's only in 477 00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:01,000 Speaker 1: contrast to the individual income tax rax, but it just 478 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 1: seems to be harping on it quite a bit, like 479 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 1: why are we focusing so much attention on lowering the 480 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:08,119 Speaker 1: corporate tax rate? Well, yeah, thing, it's a good thing 481 00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 1: for everybody. I'm not sure what your hang up is. Well, 482 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 1: my my hang up has been that they keep talking 483 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 1: about So here's the thing. They're selling it as a 484 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,359 Speaker 1: middle class tax cut, but it is not actually a 485 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,120 Speaker 1: middle class meaning that they're selling this whole tax cut 486 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:26,159 Speaker 1: as a general proposition. You go back, you listen to 487 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 1: what they've been saying, Oh, the middle class needs help, 488 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:30,639 Speaker 1: the middle class needs help. We're gonna cut the corporate 489 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 1: tax rate. Now. I understand that there will be benefits 490 00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 1: for middle class working families that come from the corporate rate, 491 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:41,639 Speaker 1: but it's just to me from a purely political angle, 492 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 1: never mind the economics for a second. I think it 493 00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:49,640 Speaker 1: sends a weird message when the overall focus and you're 494 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:52,480 Speaker 1: saying that when the overall focus is supposed to be 495 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:55,080 Speaker 1: on middle class families, you're saying, at some middle class families, 496 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:56,920 Speaker 1: but it is actually on the corporate tax rate. You 497 00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:59,440 Speaker 1: see what I'm saying. There's a disconnect there, and it 498 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:03,119 Speaker 1: also makes me a little bit. I just I'm on guard. 499 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 1: I have been on guard for the reality of the 500 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:09,639 Speaker 1: donor class, which is very still has a lot of leverage, 501 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 1: very important and powerful in the Republican Party, and how 502 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 1: they're kind of getting you know, people say, oh, it 503 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:18,840 Speaker 1: helps everybody, and corporations don't pay taxes people to write. 504 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:21,440 Speaker 1: Trust me, a lot of very big, wealthy corporations want 505 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 1: to corporate tax cut and they're going to feel the 506 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:26,159 Speaker 1: effects of that long before people who were showing up 507 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:29,280 Speaker 1: and making uh, you know, an an hourly wage at 508 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,399 Speaker 1: a at a you know, the local general store. So 509 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 1: we need to stay with in reality here. There's only 510 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 1: so much quoting of Reagan and Reagan's economic advisors we 511 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 1: can do before it's a problem. I think from the 512 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 1: optics of how the tax. But look, I think it's good. 513 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 1: I've just been saying I don't think it's as good 514 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 1: as it well, because I remember when I said this yesterday, Chris. 515 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 1: We were told flat tax, we were told tax on 516 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: one page. We have the House, we have the Senate, 517 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 1: we have the presidency. Why can't we do that. This 518 00:28:58,000 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 1: is not what we were promised, right, we can at 519 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 1: least do on that. I'm sorry because I don't recall 520 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:06,479 Speaker 1: Donald Trump specifically stating that he was going to get 521 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:08,800 Speaker 1: into OPS into a flat tax. I recall him saying 522 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 1: he was going to get into aftin reduced tax rates 523 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:14,440 Speaker 1: for everybody, including the corporate tax rate. But you made 524 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 1: a point that I think is extremely worth looking at, 525 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 1: and that is the politics of the optics of it. 526 00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 1: That is the only reason liberals ever when anything is 527 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 1: because the optics of it. Being conservative is hard. It's 528 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,600 Speaker 1: easy to be a liberal. Yeah, always going to be. 529 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 1: But that's but optics. But optics do matter, right, And 530 00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 1: so when you the average American who is who is 531 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:38,320 Speaker 1: a persuadable voter, sees Republican members of Congress going on 532 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,640 Speaker 1: TV saying we're gonna we're gonna help the middle class 533 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 1: with their tax cuts, and yeah, they're they're doing a 534 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 1: little bit here and there, the child tax credit, which 535 00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:48,280 Speaker 1: is really actually the way they've structured it, it's kind 536 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 1: of like the people aren't paying any taxes, so it's 537 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 1: not a welfare payment, but it is redistributive. It is 538 00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:57,880 Speaker 1: just the government sending you a check now because you're 539 00:29:57,880 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 1: not paying any income tax. You're just getting a check 540 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 1: the government. But people that are, you know, if you 541 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:05,000 Speaker 1: were paying, I mean I saw what the brackets were 542 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:08,080 Speaker 1: a second ago in this this latest version of the bill. 543 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 1: You know, if you're paying right now or you're not 544 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,960 Speaker 1: really paying a lot less. And in fact, some people 545 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 1: that own at homes will be paying more, and those 546 00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 1: are middle class working families. So when they see Republicans saying, oh, 547 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 1: we're helping the middle class, but we're gonna cut the 548 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:25,960 Speaker 1: corporate tax rate dramatically, by the way, and oh, we're 549 00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:30,160 Speaker 1: gonna shift around some deductions that individuals take in order 550 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,120 Speaker 1: to make it budget neutral so we can get it 551 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 1: through without it having to go through sixty vote process, 552 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:39,560 Speaker 1: right because they only need fifty through reconciliation. So it 553 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:42,360 Speaker 1: doesn't look good and not looking good. You could say, oh, 554 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter because growth, growth, growth, will their Democrats 555 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:46,880 Speaker 1: win the House or the Senate next year. Guess what, 556 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,440 Speaker 1: it matters a lot because now you're never getting those 557 00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 1: great tax cuts for the middle class, or the flat 558 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:53,600 Speaker 1: tax or anything else you said you want. So that's 559 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:55,960 Speaker 1: why you have to get that's you have to get 560 00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 1: through what you can when you can. Though, if we 561 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 1: simply don't do anything because politically it might hurt us, 562 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 1: well that's everything. And we come out and we say 563 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 1: we're gonna put forward this tax bill, and the let's 564 00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:10,800 Speaker 1: says it's literally the end of the world. I believe 565 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 1: that's a Nanci Pelosi clust you know, I know well 566 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 1: she would say that about I mean, they could cut 567 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 1: the corporate rate from thirty five to thirty four, and 568 00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:17,720 Speaker 1: she would say that it was the end of the world. 569 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:19,239 Speaker 1: I mean, so we could I think we can all 570 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 1: safely agree to ignore Nancy Pelosi. And look, I've never 571 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 1: I mean Chris to Chris, to be fair, I've never 572 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 1: said this is a fisty discussion about taxes. I've never 573 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 1: said I don't want the tax cutter. I've just said 574 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 1: I feel like it could be better. It could be 575 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 1: better politically for sure, and I also think it could 576 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 1: be better on an individual rate because they could cut spending. Chris, 577 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 1: That's the reality here, is that they won't touch spending, 578 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 1: which is why they create the artificial constraint of we 579 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 1: have to spend this money automatically. We're the Congress. We 580 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 1: have to spend this money automatically. So we're only operating 581 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,240 Speaker 1: in this little subset of spending and we're gonna shift 582 00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 1: it around that way and give you a tax cut there. 583 00:31:57,760 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 1: But the reality is that most of the money is 584 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 1: on autopilot, and that's why we have all these budgetary constraints, right, 585 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:06,000 Speaker 1: So they can't Are they going to get sixty votes 586 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,160 Speaker 1: to cut spending. If they're not going to get sixty 587 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 1: votes to cut spending, then they can't cut the spending. 588 00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:13,959 Speaker 1: They have to work within the cost. You need sixty 589 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:17,040 Speaker 1: votes to raise spending. You do not need sixty votes 590 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:20,560 Speaker 1: to cut spending. That's what I'm saying to you, that 591 00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:22,840 Speaker 1: they will not cut They will not. They're not dealing 592 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:24,560 Speaker 1: with the other side of the balloon here. We're just 593 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 1: squeezing one side of the bloom. We're not talking about 594 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 1: the other side. Of the bloom, which is spending. We're 595 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 1: spending too much money, Chris as a country, so telling 596 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 1: us all how great this tax cut is is all 597 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:34,920 Speaker 1: well and good, but at some point the music is 598 00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 1: gonna stop. We are heading towards that, and in the meantime, 599 00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:41,280 Speaker 1: corporations get their cut. I mean, we'll see. Look, I 600 00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 1: would love to, you know, call me back in well, 601 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 1: call any time you're welcome, but call me back in 602 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:46,960 Speaker 1: like a year and tell me has this is this 603 00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:48,800 Speaker 1: better for you? Or do you feel like you're getting 604 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 1: Are your wages going up? Or I don't know where 605 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 1: you work or what you do, but I think a 606 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:56,000 Speaker 1: lot of Chris. No, I actually I would love to 607 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 1: continue with that, but we have literally seven phone calls 608 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:00,160 Speaker 1: or seven lines that are all going at on. So 609 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 1: I gotta I gotta move on. And in Virginia, welcome. 610 00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 1: Good evening, Mr Sexton, Good evening, Miss Anne Um.

I don't remember that movie very well. 615 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:27,760 Speaker 1: It's very good it's there's a lot of racist things, 616 00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 1: but because the black person wins in the end, I 617 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 1: think they allow it to happen. Okay, I don't remember 618 00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:33,480 Speaker 1: the movie at all. I saw it. I was like, 619 00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:39,120 Speaker 1: I think they let him say it as long as 620 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 1: the black guy's gonna win. Tyre Tyrone is later on 621 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:45,960 Speaker 1: this one and I you're you're kind of weight on hold. 622 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:47,479 Speaker 1: I'm sorry.

Having talked about Russia collusion FBI, we 626 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:56,040 Speaker 1: will do that. Stay with me. Look, one of the 627 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:58,600 Speaker 1: great things that Trump accomplished his first year, as we know, 628 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 1: is appointing Neil Gorst to the Supreme Court. And he's 629 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:08,239 Speaker 1: got a lot of other excellent constitutionalists and conservative uh 630 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 1: conservative minds that are up on the bench now and 631 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 1: and in process of putting more.

One of Trump's nominees to the Circuit Court, 635 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:23,759 Speaker 1: this would be the U. S. District Court for the 636 00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 1: District of Columbia. He did not have the best day ever. 637 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:32,520 Speaker 1: He did not have a stellar performance when asked by 638 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:37,000 Speaker 1: a Republican. Remember as the Republican asking the questions on 639 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:40,439 Speaker 1: the Judiciary Committee, and the Republican is trying to figure out, 640 00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:45,400 Speaker 1: you know, uh, Senator John Kennedy is trying to figure out, Okay, 641 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 1: does this guy Peterson does he know the stuff you'd 642 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:51,840 Speaker 1: want somebody to know if they're going to be a 643 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:57,239 Speaker 1: federal judge, which is a thing that matters. And this 644 00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:00,040 Speaker 1: went viral today, so I'll let you listen to it. 645 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:03,400 Speaker 1: It's enjoy.

How many depositions? 655 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:50,280 Speaker 1: I would um, I'd be struggling to to remember messing 656 00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:58,279 Speaker 1: ten probably somewhere you ever tried to take a deposition 657 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 1: by yourself? I believe. No. Have you ever argued emotion 658 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 1: in state court? I have not. Have you ever argued 659 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 1: emotion in federal court? No? Uh, when's the last time 660 00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:22,280 Speaker 1: you read the Federal rules of civil procedure? The Federal 661 00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:27,960 Speaker 1: Rules of Civil procedure? Um? I have in my current position, 662 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:34,839 Speaker 1: I obviously don't need to stay as um um. By 663 00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:37,880 Speaker 1: the way, he hadn't answer more specific and pointed legal questions, 664 00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:41,600 Speaker 1: to which the answers were No, I don't know. I 665 00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:43,400 Speaker 1: don't have it for you right now. I mean, it 666 00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:46,319 Speaker 1: was a pretty brutal session there. I mean, this would 667 00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:49,920 Speaker 1: be the equivalent of me, I'm just gonna say, me 668 00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:53,440 Speaker 1: sitting there up for some post at NASA and they're like, so, 669 00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 1: what are your credentials? Like, well, I I got like 670 00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:03,719 Speaker 1: a C minus in trigonometry and yeah. This guy was 671 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:08,359 Speaker 1: not blowing anyone's socks off with his answers to these 672 00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:11,120 Speaker 1: legal questions, and it just went viral today. It was 673 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:13,040 Speaker 1: kind of funny, have you ever tried a case in court? No? 674 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:15,279 Speaker 1: Have you've done this? No? Have you done that? No, 675 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,279 Speaker 1: this guy's gonna be a federal judge. Everybody. I look, 676 00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:20,400 Speaker 1: you know, they can't all be winners. They can't all 677 00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:24,920 Speaker 1: be gorcerches. So this one was not. But it'll all 678 00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:28,920 Speaker 1: be okay. Russia, Russia, Russia got that coming up. FBI 679 00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:33,280 Speaker 1: is well, it was in Hillary's pocket. We'll talk about it. Stay, women, 680 00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna rebuild the FBI. It'll be bigger and better 681 00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:38,080 Speaker 1: than ever. But it is very sad when you look 682 00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:41,959 Speaker 1: at those documents and how they've done that is really 683 00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:44,680 Speaker 1: really disgraceful, and you have a lot of very angry 684 00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:47,440 Speaker 1: people that are seeing it. It's a very sad thing 685 00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:50,080 Speaker 1: to watch. I will tell you that. And I'm going 686 00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:54,320 Speaker 1: today on behalf of the FBI their new building. And 687 00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:57,279 Speaker 1: you know, but when I when everybody, not me, when 688 00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 1: everybody the level of anger as I safe and with 689 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:03,799 Speaker 1: this thing with respect to the FBI is certainly very sad. 690 00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:08,160 Speaker 1: Trump calling out the FBI, at least the part of 691 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:11,400 Speaker 1: the FBI that has been involved, those individuals at the 692 00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 1: bureau who have had a hand in the Russia collusion investigation, 693 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 1: the Muller probe and all of that stuff. It was 694 00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:25,200 Speaker 1: a very bad week for the Muller probe for anybody 695 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:28,279 Speaker 1: who is being honest about what's out there and what 696 00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:33,000 Speaker 1: we found out, And increasingly I think it's going to 697 00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:38,319 Speaker 1: be difficult for the left to continue this unless they 698 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:42,200 Speaker 1: have some real new information they can bring to light. 699 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:45,359 Speaker 1: And I don't believe they do or because if they did, 700 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:48,239 Speaker 1: we already know. But I also wanted to say that 701 00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:54,880 Speaker 1: it isn't it interesting This entire Russia Trump collusion narrative 702 00:38:55,800 --> 00:39:00,120 Speaker 1: is based on and people in the press remember as 703 00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:04,680 Speaker 1: a government and many Americans believe it to be true. 704 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:06,839 Speaker 1: Hasn't yet been proven, but they believe it to be true. 705 00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:11,400 Speaker 1: It would require an international conspiracy to throw an election 706 00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:18,399 Speaker 1: involving Russian secret intelligence and cyber hacking, and somehow they've 707 00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:22,800 Speaker 1: kept the conspiracy quiet up to this point. They'll believe that, 708 00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:27,279 Speaker 1: but they don't believe. They won't believe it is a 709 00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 1: conspiracy that is completely beyond the pale. When you say, well, 710 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:38,719 Speaker 1: hold on a second, maybe some pro Hillary d o 711 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:45,880 Speaker 1: J and FBI officials saw an opening to investigate the 712 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:49,120 Speaker 1: Trump campaign and to create problems with the Trump campaign, 713 00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:52,400 Speaker 1: and they went where they went for it, and they 714 00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:53,920 Speaker 1: had the power to do it, and they did it. 715 00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:59,839 Speaker 1: Why is that crazy? What about that doesn't add up? 716 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:01,719 Speaker 1: You know, you think about this. You look at people 717 00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:03,520 Speaker 1: that look at you if you bring this up with them, 718 00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:06,240 Speaker 1: like you're crazy because you don't believe that the Kremlin 719 00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:10,239 Speaker 1: was working with Trump to beat Hillary, which even if 720 00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:12,800 Speaker 1: Trump wanted to do that, how that would work is 721 00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:16,600 Speaker 1: think about the risk reward there too. All right, we're 722 00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:19,360 Speaker 1: going back to basics here. Trump is going to collude 723 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:23,120 Speaker 1: with Russia to throw an election that a multibillion dollar 724 00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:27,080 Speaker 1: US media complex can't figure out how to, you know, 725 00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:29,840 Speaker 1: make it go one way or the other. Come on, 726 00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:33,439 Speaker 1: it just doesn't make any sense. But what we're seeing 727 00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:38,520 Speaker 1: now with Strock and Lisa Page and McCabe and all 728 00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:42,160 Speaker 1: these other senior d o J officials and FBI officials 729 00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:44,560 Speaker 1: and that stuff right at FBI is within the d 730 00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:47,319 Speaker 1: o J, so it can kind of use them somewhat interchangeably, 731 00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:52,200 Speaker 1: is that there were people who hated Trump, I mean 732 00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:56,040 Speaker 1: really hated him. And the Democrats are scrambling right now 733 00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:58,880 Speaker 1: for a way to explain this to fair minded Americans, 734 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:00,840 Speaker 1: you know, right, people that are looking at this and 735 00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:04,840 Speaker 1: saying themselves, a hold on a second, we're supposed to 736 00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:07,160 Speaker 1: believe that this just all happened that this is some 737 00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:12,880 Speaker 1: big coincidence that you had the person who was exonerating Hillary, 738 00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:15,680 Speaker 1: and as we know now, they just bailed Hillary out. Okay, 739 00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:18,840 Speaker 1: Hillary broke the law. Hillary is a federal There should 740 00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:24,880 Speaker 1: be a federal convict should be legitimately, that's not an overstatement. 741 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:27,400 Speaker 1: That's now what she have gone to prison. She probably 742 00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:29,400 Speaker 1: would have taken a plea deal and you know what 743 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:31,680 Speaker 1: it would have been. They would have let it scale 744 00:41:31,719 --> 00:41:35,279 Speaker 1: down to a misdemeanor, I would guess. But anybody who's 745 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:37,040 Speaker 1: not Hillary Clinton to do what she did would be 746 00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:39,839 Speaker 1: facing charges of some kind full stop. Okay, And that's 747 00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:47,680 Speaker 1: just any discussion otherwise is is nonsense. So they bailed 748 00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:51,080 Speaker 1: Hillary out, and somebody who was at the helm, all right, 749 00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:55,760 Speaker 1: who's basically driving the car to bail out Hillary, also 750 00:41:56,280 --> 00:42:00,560 Speaker 1: was involved in the Mueller probe and also talked about 751 00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:04,759 Speaker 1: an insurance policy in case Trump one. That's a weird 752 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:07,080 Speaker 1: thing to say, right, weird thing to say if you're 753 00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:12,200 Speaker 1: in the acting FBI director's office for sure, right, very 754 00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:14,000 Speaker 1: very strange. And as I've been saying, do you have 755 00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:16,120 Speaker 1: to remember the full context here? These are people who 756 00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:19,000 Speaker 1: thought they'd be working for Hillary. They all want to 757 00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 1: get millions of dollars for their memoirs, probably after after 758 00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:25,839 Speaker 1: the Hillary administration is done. They they had a very 759 00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:33,000 Speaker 1: clear motive for trying to help Hillary and then even 760 00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:37,560 Speaker 1: to perhaps undo the Trump presidency afterwards, at least for 761 00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:42,040 Speaker 1: spite for vengeance, if not for some personal gain. And 762 00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:45,040 Speaker 1: there's no good response to this. They say, oh, Bernie, 763 00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:47,320 Speaker 1: they said mean things about Bernie Sanders too. Yeah, but 764 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:50,040 Speaker 1: there's not there's not all the other stuff with Bernie Sanders. 765 00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:54,640 Speaker 1: That's that's irrelevant. This only matters in the context of 766 00:42:54,840 --> 00:43:00,080 Speaker 1: an endless and completely open investigation that was start it 767 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:02,239 Speaker 1: based on nonsense. And oh we find out the people 768 00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:04,719 Speaker 1: who started it also happened to hate Trump. That they 769 00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:07,399 Speaker 1: hate other people doesn't matter because they didn't start huge 770 00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:11,839 Speaker 1: investigations of those other politicians. But it's just distraction from 771 00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:14,000 Speaker 1: the media. It's look at the shiny object over here. 772 00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:17,719 Speaker 1: Don't get close to the truth. Don't believe what you 773 00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:22,040 Speaker 1: already know. Believe us fake news. We'll tell you the truth. 774 00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 1: You have Democrats actually going after Rod Rosenstein. Now, I mean, 775 00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:30,000 Speaker 1: this is this is astonishing. You got you gotta hear 776 00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:34,240 Speaker 1: some of this that the Department of Justice itself. Not Mueller, 777 00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:37,400 Speaker 1: not his team, but the Department of Justice, the formal 778 00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:42,720 Speaker 1: Public Affairs channel had actually orchestrated this dump of text 779 00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:46,239 Speaker 1: messages that were revealed in the course of an ongoing 780 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:50,200 Speaker 1: Department of Justice investigation. That strikes me, it's very odd 781 00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:52,319 Speaker 1: that there are people in the Department of Justice who 782 00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:59,200 Speaker 1: apparently are cooperating with this effort to undermine the integrity 783 00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:03,839 Speaker 1: and the strength of the Special Council investigation. Is an 784 00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:08,799 Speaker 1: irrelevant distraction. What you have there is a Democrat member 785 00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:12,399 Speaker 1: of Congress who's now claiming that they are basically deep 786 00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:16,200 Speaker 1: state pro Trump elements at the FBI. Now we've been 787 00:44:16,239 --> 00:44:20,080 Speaker 1: hearing all along that go ahead, Tyrone. That particular democrat 788 00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:22,399 Speaker 1: was the one who just made up a crazy number 789 00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:24,759 Speaker 1: for the number of mass shootings. There's been nine d 790 00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:27,200 Speaker 1: shootings with ten or more people this year, according to 791 00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:32,360 Speaker 1: that was the same guy last week. But this is 792 00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:35,880 Speaker 1: what you're hearing. Oh, you know, how could they release 793 00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:39,280 Speaker 1: these texts? They were on government They're they're using government 794 00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:42,280 Speaker 1: property as in their phones, their devices. Those are official devices, 795 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:47,160 Speaker 1: those are official records. These senior FBI people must think 796 00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:50,000 Speaker 1: they're really untouchable. To be using official records and talking 797 00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:53,680 Speaker 1: all kinds of stuff about the president or soon to 798 00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 1: be president. Not smart, by the way. Like I worked 799 00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:00,680 Speaker 1: in the federal government, I never would have dreamed of 800 00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:04,360 Speaker 1: sending an email or a text message on government property 801 00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:07,120 Speaker 1: that was like the commander in chief is an idiot, 802 00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:09,080 Speaker 1: a moron, or you know whatever. All the stuff that 803 00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:13,279 Speaker 1: was being said, it's just you know, because you never know, 804 00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:15,640 Speaker 1: and that stuff's gonna get called the new an investigation. 805 00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:17,440 Speaker 1: We all this is all one oh one. This is 806 00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:19,360 Speaker 1: not surprising at all, but others in the media have 807 00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:21,560 Speaker 1: been trying this too. Oh. I feel bad for the 808 00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:25,279 Speaker 1: FBI agents whose privacy has been violated. Here. No one 809 00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:27,520 Speaker 1: set up a camera in their bedroom. This is on 810 00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:32,600 Speaker 1: their official work computers, smartphones, whatever it may be. And 811 00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:34,560 Speaker 1: it's relevant, and you know the FBI, you know, you 812 00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:36,319 Speaker 1: don't get to play that game. And the FBI wants 813 00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:39,640 Speaker 1: your records. Let me have it be known. If they're 814 00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:43,240 Speaker 1: doing investigation and they think that whatever you've got is relevant, 815 00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:47,280 Speaker 1: it's theirs. They gotta play by the same rules, folks. 816 00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:50,560 Speaker 1: I've gotta play by the same rules. And you can 817 00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:53,040 Speaker 1: just tell there's a desperation right now. Oh yeah, as 818 00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:56,680 Speaker 1: I said, the Bernie Sanders thing, there are text messages 819 00:45:56,719 --> 00:46:00,759 Speaker 1: about other politicians irrelevant. That doesn't mean anything. Because we're 820 00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:03,560 Speaker 1: working backwards from there's a huge, massive investigation that never 821 00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:07,520 Speaker 1: should have been started. And the juxtaposition of the Hillary 822 00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:10,759 Speaker 1: case versus the Hillary investigation versus Trump investigation is just 823 00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:18,719 Speaker 1: appalling and how clear the politicization is. And you know 824 00:46:18,800 --> 00:46:21,080 Speaker 1: not you got Adam Schiff who's now whining about Oh, 825 00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:23,200 Speaker 1: they might try to shut this down. Yeah, because they 826 00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:26,160 Speaker 1: want to continue this forever. This is the hashtag resistance. 827 00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:31,120 Speaker 1: This is it Russia collusion nonsense. That's what they're trying 828 00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:32,680 Speaker 1: to go for here. That's what they think will be 829 00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:36,759 Speaker 1: the difference maker. It might not stop the administration, it'll 830 00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:39,680 Speaker 1: slow it down enough to make it ineffective. They want 831 00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:41,600 Speaker 1: to make sure that Trump can make America great again. 832 00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:44,960 Speaker 1: That's what the investigation is all about. I gonna find 833 00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:51,239 Speaker 1: any Russian collusion anyway. It's Oh but Schiff here is 834 00:46:51,320 --> 00:46:53,880 Speaker 1: telling us all that. I'll let him say. This is 835 00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:56,600 Speaker 1: the Democrat who who people believe is also the source 836 00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:59,600 Speaker 1: of a lot of interesting information for the press that 837 00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:01,800 Speaker 1: is anti Trump that is not supposed to be getting 838 00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:05,360 Speaker 1: out there. When you look at the context of the 839 00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:08,880 Speaker 1: allegations that the d o J Inspector generals investigating, they 840 00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:11,840 Speaker 1: were very selective in what they released. There were multiple 841 00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:16,880 Speaker 1: reports last year that the FBI was heavily predisposed against 842 00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:20,719 Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton and in favor of Donald Trump. If there 843 00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:23,640 Speaker 1: are text messages that run in the other direction, why 844 00:47:23,719 --> 00:47:27,000 Speaker 1: have they not also been released? Once they have been released, 845 00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:29,560 Speaker 1: are very anti Trump? The ones that they've released are all, 846 00:47:29,920 --> 00:47:32,000 Speaker 1: to the degree they bear at all, as far as 847 00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:34,719 Speaker 1: I can tell, are anti Trump. Um. Does that mean 848 00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:38,560 Speaker 1: they're not investigating the same allegation running in the opposite direction? 849 00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:44,840 Speaker 1: What's the allegation the opposite direction? What Democrat Committee membership 850 00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:48,560 Speaker 1: is saying doesn't make any sense. What's he saying that 851 00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:52,640 Speaker 1: that people that they are anti anti Hillary people started 852 00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:57,080 Speaker 1: the Russia investigation against Trump. It's irrelevant. Hillary got bailed out, 853 00:47:57,560 --> 00:48:01,959 Speaker 1: Hillary got got the sweet deal one. Trump's the one 854 00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:04,880 Speaker 1: that's getting all those people dragged through the mud and 855 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:08,719 Speaker 1: the nonsense of this Mueller probe, which is feted by 856 00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:15,000 Speaker 1: the way it is putrid, rotten to the core. But well, 857 00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:17,359 Speaker 1: we're gonna find anti Hillary text. I mean, they don't 858 00:48:17,360 --> 00:48:21,080 Speaker 1: even have coherent arguments if they found some FBI. First 859 00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:23,719 Speaker 1: of all the people that are at the top of 860 00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:30,799 Speaker 1: these investigations, McCabe, Muller, comey struck. All Hillary partisans. What's 861 00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:33,240 Speaker 1: her name? The one who was the acting Attorney general? 862 00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:36,160 Speaker 1: Uh d o J. I can't remember name off that 863 00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:38,440 Speaker 1: may head, but you know I'm talking about member. She 864 00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:40,000 Speaker 1: was the one that wouldn't do the job with the 865 00:48:42,440 --> 00:48:44,920 Speaker 1: the travel band, you know what I mean. I'm forgetting name, 866 00:48:45,080 --> 00:48:48,600 Speaker 1: Sally Ate. Sally Ate. There we go. These are all 867 00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:51,480 Speaker 1: Hillary partisans, and they're all the ones that have their 868 00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:55,120 Speaker 1: fingerprints all over the email investigation, the Russia collusion, the 869 00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:59,560 Speaker 1: Muller probe, Hillary partisans. Who's gonna w when are we 870 00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:01,759 Speaker 1: gonna see the anti Hillary text? You're not gonna see 871 00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:05,400 Speaker 1: the anti Hillary text, you idiot, because they're all Hillary partisans. 872 00:49:06,960 --> 00:49:09,759 Speaker 1: So that's why they don't have anti Hillary text. You know, 873 00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:15,040 Speaker 1: figure it out. Guy's an idiot. But I mean he 874 00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:16,800 Speaker 1: doesn't have a good argument to make. That's that's a 875 00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:18,440 Speaker 1: part of this too. Maybe he's not dumb, he just 876 00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:20,319 Speaker 1: has nothing else to say, because what's he gonna say? 877 00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:24,120 Speaker 1: People are figuring this out? You're really gonna tell me, 878 00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:27,279 Speaker 1: this is a coincidence, you really? I mean, I was 879 00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:29,360 Speaker 1: on Fox News. I was getting yelled over earlier in 880 00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:31,520 Speaker 1: the week by somebody who doesn't know anything, who was 881 00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:33,400 Speaker 1: trying to tell me that, well, the Russia collusion has 882 00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:35,800 Speaker 1: already been proven because of the meeting with Donald Trump Jr. 883 00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:39,520 Speaker 1: And I'm like, we're back to that now. That's pathetic. 884 00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:44,040 Speaker 1: And also, yeah, he kept saying Wikipedia instead of Wiki 885 00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:47,799 Speaker 1: leaks pretty different things. By the way, colluding with Wikipedia 886 00:49:47,840 --> 00:49:51,280 Speaker 1: wouldn't get you very far unless you had an interest 887 00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:57,000 Speaker 1: in random things and knowledge. But you didn't even have 888 00:49:57,040 --> 00:50:00,520 Speaker 1: an argument to make. I'm I'm here looking at Fusion EPs. 889 00:50:01,080 --> 00:50:05,560 Speaker 1: You have a Fusion GPS researcher married to a top 890 00:50:05,760 --> 00:50:09,560 Speaker 1: Muller probe guy who got demoted from the Mueller probe 891 00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:13,960 Speaker 1: because he was trying to work Fusion GPS stuff into 892 00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:18,120 Speaker 1: what the FBI was doing. This is a coincidence. Come on, 893 00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:24,920 Speaker 1: this stuff is now. This is now bright red Neon 894 00:50:25,360 --> 00:50:28,920 Speaker 1: signs uh. And the media is in a bit of 895 00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:31,520 Speaker 1: a panic, but that the Christmas holiday can't come soon 896 00:50:31,640 --> 00:50:33,880 Speaker 1: enough for most of the mainstream because they need to 897 00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:36,600 Speaker 1: regroup after this. This week has been terrible for them. 898 00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:40,480 Speaker 1: I mean, the Republicans have been more focused on tax reform. 899 00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:45,640 Speaker 1: But this has been a very, very damaging, a few 900 00:50:45,760 --> 00:50:48,400 Speaker 1: days damaging series of news cycles for the whole Russia 901 00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:52,160 Speaker 1: collusion thing, and Trump knows it. Trump was smacking them 902 00:50:52,160 --> 00:50:54,120 Speaker 1: around to on that one. Alright, eight four or four 903 00:50:55,040 --> 00:50:57,560 Speaker 1: to five. We'll take some calls.

And it made me think of 962 00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:42,719 Speaker 1: the shooting in Air in Las Vegas and how it 963 00:54:42,840 --> 00:54:48,160 Speaker 1: would be relatively inexpensive for a casino to keep a 964 00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:52,160 Speaker 1: guy around who was, you know, a loner who had 965 00:54:52,239 --> 00:54:56,480 Speaker 1: guns and throw him in wherever there would be a 966 00:54:56,600 --> 00:55:01,360 Speaker 1: possibility of actual Uh no, we're done, We're done.

Uh yeah, Democrat woman accused of sexual harassment. 991 00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:22,279 Speaker 1: I'm talking with this new This is in Kansas.

Play some Christmas music and all that. 997 00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:38,160 Speaker 1: Today we're just gonna talk about the news and some 998 00:56:38,239 --> 00:56:41,680 Speaker 1: other things. Sexual harassment stories coming up after the break, 999 00:56:41,719 --> 00:56:45,000 Speaker 1: you want to hear him. Here's a story that you 1000 00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:47,880 Speaker 1: won't see the media spend a lot of time on. 1001 00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:52,880 Speaker 1: You've got some of the A couple of the women 1002 00:56:53,040 --> 00:56:55,960 Speaker 1: that were making that we're considering making sexual miss conduct 1003 00:56:55,960 --> 00:56:59,320 Speaker 1: allegations against Donald Trump in the final months of the 1004 00:57:00,040 --> 00:57:05,120 Speaker 1: presidential race had their lawyer California California lawyer Lisa Bloom 1005 00:57:06,080 --> 00:57:09,439 Speaker 1: making efforts to get them a whole lot of money, 1006 00:57:11,040 --> 00:57:14,200 Speaker 1: including one woman being offered as much as seven hundred 1007 00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:21,080 Speaker 1: and fifty thousand dollars. Now that leaves a whole lot 1008 00:57:21,160 --> 00:57:24,680 Speaker 1: of unanswered questions, doesn't it. I should note that any 1009 00:57:24,760 --> 00:57:29,680 Speaker 1: time in recent history a Republican has been acute, Donald 1010 00:57:29,680 --> 00:57:32,120 Speaker 1: Trump most specifically, has been accused of any kind of 1011 00:57:32,200 --> 00:57:36,080 Speaker 1: sexual misconduct. And someone raised the possibility of anyone coming 1012 00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:39,320 Speaker 1: out and saying this not just for political reasons but 1013 00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:43,120 Speaker 1: also for payment, that has been slapped down right away. 1014 00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:48,760 Speaker 1: That's uh, that's a slander, completely untrue. Would never happen. 1015 00:57:48,960 --> 00:57:52,720 Speaker 1: Women need to be believed no woman would ever do that. Well, 1016 00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:55,320 Speaker 1: now we have a report that two women were very 1017 00:57:55,400 --> 00:58:01,160 Speaker 1: close to doing that, getting paid to say that Donald true. 1018 00:58:01,200 --> 00:58:03,600 Speaker 1: Now you could say that what there was gonna they 1019 00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:06,280 Speaker 1: were gonna tell the truth. But I should note, whether 1020 00:58:06,280 --> 00:58:09,400 Speaker 1: you believe that or not, that for an encounter that 1021 00:58:09,600 --> 00:58:14,560 Speaker 1: may have been in a gray area where Trump thought 1022 00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:17,520 Speaker 1: that he had full consent to touch or grab or 1023 00:58:17,560 --> 00:58:20,080 Speaker 1: whatever it may have been, and a woman did not 1024 00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:25,160 Speaker 1: feel that way, the economic incentive to add to the 1025 00:58:25,280 --> 00:58:27,880 Speaker 1: story is certainly there, right The economics said up to 1026 00:58:27,920 --> 00:58:29,920 Speaker 1: make it sound even worse. You're talking about seven dred 1027 00:58:29,920 --> 00:58:35,440 Speaker 1: and fifty thousand dollars substantial if you were giving testimony 1028 00:58:35,480 --> 00:58:38,680 Speaker 1: in a court and somebody said, well, there you know, 1029 00:58:40,120 --> 00:58:41,680 Speaker 1: are you? Are you swear to tell the whole truth, 1030 00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:44,000 Speaker 1: nothing but the truth. Did someone pay you seven or 1031 00:58:44,120 --> 00:58:46,600 Speaker 1: fifty grand to say this? And you said yes, that 1032 00:58:46,680 --> 00:58:51,280 Speaker 1: would look bad. That would look bad. So I would 1033 00:58:51,320 --> 00:58:55,080 Speaker 1: just note that we've gotten used to brushing all that 1034 00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:57,720 Speaker 1: aside right away out of hand. Oh no, No, no 1035 00:58:57,920 --> 00:59:01,360 Speaker 1: woman would ever level allegation against Donald Trump, against the 1036 00:59:01,360 --> 00:59:06,120 Speaker 1: president of sexual misconduct because somebody paid them to say 1037 00:59:06,240 --> 00:59:09,640 Speaker 1: such a thing as a disgrace, except it looks like 1038 00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:15,360 Speaker 1: it was, if not true, very close to being true. Um. 1039 00:59:15,720 --> 00:59:19,120 Speaker 1: The Hill dot Com broke the story today, and well 1040 00:59:19,240 --> 00:59:23,080 Speaker 1: done in doing so, So I think that that's not worthy. 1041 00:59:23,120 --> 00:59:25,240 Speaker 1: A couple of other things here, because there's a lot 1042 00:59:25,320 --> 00:59:29,520 Speaker 1: of this sexual harassment stuff, sexual miss I think sexual 1043 00:59:29,560 --> 00:59:32,320 Speaker 1: misconduct is probably a better term because it's more all inclusive. 1044 00:59:32,360 --> 00:59:34,520 Speaker 1: But we'll talk about what should be included and what shouldn't. 1045 00:59:35,080 --> 00:59:39,040 Speaker 1: Matt Damon got in some trouble with that. I mentioned 1046 00:59:39,080 --> 00:59:43,760 Speaker 1: this before. There is a woman who is the first 1047 00:59:44,040 --> 00:59:49,000 Speaker 1: high profile female politician, or maybe she's not high profile, 1048 00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:54,080 Speaker 1: but Kansas Democrat Andrea Ramsey has been accused of sexual 1049 00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:58,720 Speaker 1: harassment and is dropping out of a congressional race US 1050 00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:02,720 Speaker 1: House race. They have a woman who it is said 1051 01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:07,400 Speaker 1: was harassing and retaliated against a male subordinate who rejected 1052 01:00:07,440 --> 01:00:13,440 Speaker 1: her advances. This is still overwhelmingly going to be a 1053 01:00:13,600 --> 01:00:17,840 Speaker 1: problem where men are the aggressors. But I did think 1054 01:00:17,880 --> 01:00:20,400 Speaker 1: it was noteworthy that we did have one case here 1055 01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:24,000 Speaker 1: that has become something of a national news story where 1056 01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:26,880 Speaker 1: a woman will no longer run for Congress because she 1057 01:00:27,960 --> 01:00:30,520 Speaker 1: It's a power dynamic thing, right, If a woman is 1058 01:00:30,560 --> 01:00:32,440 Speaker 1: in a place where she holds a man's job in 1059 01:00:32,560 --> 01:00:37,960 Speaker 1: her hands, Uh, that could influence the you know, the 1060 01:00:38,080 --> 01:00:41,960 Speaker 1: the that and that would influence the sexual dynamic very strongly. 1061 01:00:42,960 --> 01:00:45,440 Speaker 1: And a man could feel coerce not fit. It's different, 1062 01:00:45,480 --> 01:00:48,200 Speaker 1: not physically coerce. We're not talking about the criminal kind 1063 01:00:48,280 --> 01:00:53,440 Speaker 1: of sexual coersion, but professional co sexual harassment, professional coercion 1064 01:00:53,600 --> 01:00:57,040 Speaker 1: that absolutely can and and has happened, so as we 1065 01:00:57,120 --> 01:00:59,240 Speaker 1: see from this story, just want to put that in there. 1066 01:01:00,600 --> 01:01:03,919 Speaker 1: And then we get into the Matt Damon thing, which 1067 01:01:04,840 --> 01:01:07,320 Speaker 1: I mean, I've always thought Matt Damon was very overrated. 1068 01:01:07,360 --> 01:01:08,880 Speaker 1: I know some of you've already written to me in 1069 01:01:08,880 --> 01:01:10,240 Speaker 1: the past and said you disagree with me on that. 1070 01:01:10,360 --> 01:01:13,160 Speaker 1: That's fine. I don't know why the guy. I feel 1071 01:01:13,200 --> 01:01:14,840 Speaker 1: like I could walk through any mall in America and 1072 01:01:14,920 --> 01:01:16,440 Speaker 1: find a better guy to play a lot of roles 1073 01:01:16,480 --> 01:01:20,480 Speaker 1: than Matt Damon. But anyway, that's neither here nor there. 1074 01:01:20,640 --> 01:01:22,439 Speaker 1: I just like to hate on Matt Damon for some reason, 1075 01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:26,720 Speaker 1: for a lot of reasons. Matt Damon sat down for 1076 01:01:26,720 --> 01:01:28,800 Speaker 1: an interview with Variety or one of these was a 1077 01:01:28,920 --> 01:01:31,520 Speaker 1: Variety of one of these publications, and he said a 1078 01:01:31,520 --> 01:01:33,080 Speaker 1: lot of things, and they were asking kind of do 1079 01:01:33,120 --> 01:01:35,400 Speaker 1: you believe do you not believe about individual cases? And 1080 01:01:35,960 --> 01:01:38,680 Speaker 1: I don't really I don't have you know, that's he 1081 01:01:38,760 --> 01:01:40,440 Speaker 1: can say what he wants to say about that, right, 1082 01:01:40,440 --> 01:01:41,800 Speaker 1: he can say I do believe it, don't believe, and 1083 01:01:41,880 --> 01:01:45,120 Speaker 1: that's on him. But he also tried to make a 1084 01:01:45,200 --> 01:01:48,120 Speaker 1: point about how we are in this habit right now 1085 01:01:49,280 --> 01:01:52,360 Speaker 1: of and I've been warning you about this four weeks now. 1086 01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:56,560 Speaker 1: Those you listen to the show, no where anything that 1087 01:01:56,840 --> 01:02:01,280 Speaker 1: is in the sexual harassment category is spoken about in 1088 01:02:01,360 --> 01:02:09,200 Speaker 1: the same general, vain, same general context as grotesque, predatory, 1089 01:02:09,320 --> 01:02:13,320 Speaker 1: criminal stuff. Because of this movement right now that me too, 1090 01:02:13,400 --> 01:02:16,280 Speaker 1: women are to be believed no more sexual harassment movement 1091 01:02:16,320 --> 01:02:20,280 Speaker 1: that's going on in the country, and that's going to 1092 01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:22,479 Speaker 1: create problems. I think it already is create We're seeing 1093 01:02:22,520 --> 01:02:24,600 Speaker 1: it happening right now. It's beginning to be an issue. 1094 01:02:25,320 --> 01:02:28,160 Speaker 1: I mentioned Matt Lowry yesterday again because I like to 1095 01:02:28,200 --> 01:02:30,240 Speaker 1: hate on Matt lower I'm usually a very nice and 1096 01:02:30,320 --> 01:02:33,040 Speaker 1: generous person, especially about other people, but there's some people 1097 01:02:33,080 --> 01:02:35,640 Speaker 1: that need to be cut down a few sizes. Uh. 1098 01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:38,280 Speaker 1: But Matt lower I just had a piece come out 1099 01:02:38,320 --> 01:02:42,080 Speaker 1: where a woman who was twenty four had a consensual 1100 01:02:42,160 --> 01:02:45,160 Speaker 1: affair with him. Right, affairs are bad, shouldn't do it, 1101 01:02:45,280 --> 01:02:48,640 Speaker 1: but she did it, and she this whole long story 1102 01:02:48,680 --> 01:02:51,280 Speaker 1: about how he was the power dynamic, and she was 1103 01:02:51,360 --> 01:02:54,840 Speaker 1: so taken in by him and he was so compelling 1104 01:02:54,920 --> 01:02:57,000 Speaker 1: and everything else. That's like, look, you know, you got 1105 01:02:57,080 --> 01:03:01,160 Speaker 1: involved with the merried guy and it didn't well and 1106 01:03:01,280 --> 01:03:04,920 Speaker 1: you were mostly traumatized by it. But that's not that's 1107 01:03:04,960 --> 01:03:07,440 Speaker 1: not a Weinstein like situation. That's just a you made 1108 01:03:07,480 --> 01:03:09,800 Speaker 1: a bad choice in Matt Lower's a creep situation. But 1109 01:03:09,880 --> 01:03:13,360 Speaker 1: that's not the same thing. There was no force, there 1110 01:03:13,400 --> 01:03:16,880 Speaker 1: were no threats, there was no coercion, and people are 1111 01:03:16,880 --> 01:03:19,560 Speaker 1: speaking about it like, Okay, well, this is all very similar, 1112 01:03:19,600 --> 01:03:21,720 Speaker 1: and we need to be very clear. The biggest distinction 1113 01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:25,480 Speaker 1: is are we talking civil or criminal? Right, civil is 1114 01:03:25,600 --> 01:03:27,240 Speaker 1: go out on a date with me or you're fired. 1115 01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:30,000 Speaker 1: That person should the person who does that should be 1116 01:03:30,080 --> 01:03:32,760 Speaker 1: fired and they should be sued for a lot of money. Right. 1117 01:03:33,520 --> 01:03:36,240 Speaker 1: What the criminal side would be the Weinstein of come 1118 01:03:36,280 --> 01:03:37,960 Speaker 1: back to my hotel and to talk about the role, 1119 01:03:38,280 --> 01:03:40,680 Speaker 1: and then Weinstein like grabs and doesn't take no for 1120 01:03:40,720 --> 01:03:44,000 Speaker 1: an answer and is molesting and all that stuff. But 1121 01:03:44,680 --> 01:03:47,040 Speaker 1: this is a distinction in law that should also be 1122 01:03:47,160 --> 01:03:50,200 Speaker 1: reflected in our discussions about all this. Matt Damon in 1123 01:03:50,280 --> 01:03:53,200 Speaker 1: this interview was trying to say this trying to make 1124 01:03:53,280 --> 01:03:56,440 Speaker 1: that point, of course, not as precisely or eloquently as 1125 01:03:56,480 --> 01:04:01,120 Speaker 1: I just have. He's Matt Damon. But people were piling on. 1126 01:04:01,320 --> 01:04:03,600 Speaker 1: I mean, they are all over Matt Damon on this one. 1127 01:04:03,640 --> 01:04:06,320 Speaker 1: Oh how could you? And it just goes to show 1128 01:04:06,480 --> 01:04:11,600 Speaker 1: that the political winds are blowing so strongly behind this 1129 01:04:11,760 --> 01:04:14,520 Speaker 1: whole movement right now that anyone who stands up, even 1130 01:04:14,560 --> 01:04:16,120 Speaker 1: for a moment, it says, hold on a second, Maybe 1131 01:04:16,200 --> 01:04:19,120 Speaker 1: this one we should we should think a little bit 1132 01:04:19,160 --> 01:04:22,960 Speaker 1: more about her. Maybe we shouldn't rush to judgment on 1133 01:04:23,320 --> 01:04:26,320 Speaker 1: every case as though they're all the same case. That 1134 01:04:26,480 --> 01:04:28,280 Speaker 1: person is not part of the problem. This is what's 1135 01:04:28,320 --> 01:04:33,440 Speaker 1: that issue with movements. Movements rely on the mentality of 1136 01:04:33,520 --> 01:04:36,560 Speaker 1: a mob. Now, movements can be good, but movements can 1137 01:04:36,640 --> 01:04:39,480 Speaker 1: also be bad, and good movements can turn bad quickly 1138 01:04:39,560 --> 01:04:43,960 Speaker 1: because the mentality of a group, the psychology of a mass, 1139 01:04:44,280 --> 01:04:50,680 Speaker 1: is different and has different moral tendencies and traits than 1140 01:04:50,760 --> 01:04:54,040 Speaker 1: that of an individual. And that's my concern right now, 1141 01:04:54,240 --> 01:04:56,040 Speaker 1: is all this is and has been my concern is 1142 01:04:56,040 --> 01:04:58,960 Speaker 1: all this is happening. So Matt Damon just got on 1143 01:04:59,040 --> 01:05:01,960 Speaker 1: the hot seat for this one. Uh. And then there's 1144 01:05:01,960 --> 01:05:06,120 Speaker 1: the ESPN as a whole mess over there MSNBC with 1145 01:05:06,200 --> 01:05:09,720 Speaker 1: Sports All Center as ESPN is having some trouble and 1146 01:05:10,160 --> 01:05:12,520 Speaker 1: I don't know that much about it because I'm focused 1147 01:05:12,560 --> 01:05:14,280 Speaker 1: on some of the other things here. Tyrone does know 1148 01:05:14,320 --> 01:05:16,440 Speaker 1: about it, Tyrone, what the heck is going on ESPN? 1149 01:05:16,480 --> 01:05:18,520 Speaker 1: There's people, there's a lot of stuff going on. Well, 1150 01:05:18,560 --> 01:05:22,560 Speaker 1: it was um Adrian Lawrence, a former ESPN staffers. She 1151 01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:25,240 Speaker 1: was on Sports Center different different shows, went to the 1152 01:05:25,320 --> 01:05:28,600 Speaker 1: Boston Globe and told her story, and from that other 1153 01:05:28,840 --> 01:05:33,040 Speaker 1: people sort of were asked about the culture they're ESPN, 1154 01:05:33,120 --> 01:05:36,560 Speaker 1: and this particular culture isn't just sexual harassment like some 1155 01:05:36,600 --> 01:05:40,360 Speaker 1: of the other places. It's sort of also a boys club, 1156 01:05:41,000 --> 01:05:43,040 Speaker 1: I think would be the best way to describe it. 1157 01:05:43,520 --> 01:05:47,520 Speaker 1: And while ESPN has made a lot of strides compare, 1158 01:05:47,600 --> 01:05:49,840 Speaker 1: you know, as far as a lot of they made 1159 01:05:49,880 --> 01:05:51,800 Speaker 1: a lot of strides with women being you know, for 1160 01:05:52,120 --> 01:05:54,600 Speaker 1: you know, front and center, but they still have ways 1161 01:05:54,640 --> 01:05:56,600 Speaker 1: to go if you believe what's come out in the 1162 01:05:56,680 --> 01:05:59,560 Speaker 1: Boston Globe article. So what what was in what was 1163 01:05:59,680 --> 01:06:02,240 Speaker 1: some of what's in the article? Well, well, first let's 1164 01:06:02,280 --> 01:06:04,040 Speaker 1: take the boys club part of it. There was a 1165 01:06:04,120 --> 01:06:07,400 Speaker 1: woman Sarah Walsh. Waxley was a big fan of and 1166 01:06:07,800 --> 01:06:09,480 Speaker 1: she was having her and her husband were having a 1167 01:06:09,560 --> 01:06:14,560 Speaker 1: lot of trouble having a baby, multiple miscarriages, and it 1168 01:06:14,720 --> 01:06:17,680 Speaker 1: was kind of she kind of was told according to 1169 01:06:18,120 --> 01:06:20,680 Speaker 1: other people because she refused to speak on it, but 1170 01:06:20,800 --> 01:06:23,840 Speaker 1: she has kind through social media. She came to work 1171 01:06:24,000 --> 01:06:27,600 Speaker 1: the day she had a miscarriage and was literally bleeding 1172 01:06:27,680 --> 01:06:32,160 Speaker 1: on set in Alabama for college game day because she's 1173 01:06:32,200 --> 01:06:35,320 Speaker 1: not supposed to miss work, but men could miss work 1174 01:06:35,400 --> 01:06:38,919 Speaker 1: for much less. So if you're a woman there, you're 1175 01:06:39,120 --> 01:06:41,400 Speaker 1: asked to do things that men, at least that's what 1176 01:06:41,480 --> 01:06:43,760 Speaker 1: the story says, and people have corroborated. You're asked to 1177 01:06:43,800 --> 01:06:47,240 Speaker 1: do things that men aren't asked to do. It isn't 1178 01:06:47,240 --> 01:06:50,440 Speaker 1: an interesting that assuming that that is an accurate reflection 1179 01:06:50,480 --> 01:06:53,520 Speaker 1: of the culture there, that that is apparently what's going 1180 01:06:53,560 --> 01:06:57,080 Speaker 1: on ESPN in terms of male female relations. And meanwhile, 1181 01:06:57,320 --> 01:07:00,440 Speaker 1: ESPN is like very progressive, left wing, anti gone all 1182 01:07:00,480 --> 01:07:05,720 Speaker 1: that stuff. Yes, that but that that's more complicated. That's 1183 01:07:05,720 --> 01:07:08,240 Speaker 1: a lawger playing, that's more complicated. I'm just saying that 1184 01:07:08,480 --> 01:07:11,040 Speaker 1: you got a lot of liberals over the ESPN, and 1185 01:07:11,080 --> 01:07:13,960 Speaker 1: I think you have a lot of city people and 1186 01:07:14,120 --> 01:07:18,600 Speaker 1: cities tend to be more liberal. They cover teams locally, 1187 01:07:18,800 --> 01:07:21,160 Speaker 1: they end up ESPN nationally and they take their politics 1188 01:07:21,240 --> 01:07:24,560 Speaker 1: with them. But there isn't there also a highlight like 1189 01:07:24,680 --> 01:07:27,760 Speaker 1: an anchor and a former employee, and there's text messages. 1190 01:07:28,000 --> 01:07:30,440 Speaker 1: That's the that's the that's the sexual harassment part. Adrian 1191 01:07:30,520 --> 01:07:33,640 Speaker 1: Lawrence claims that John Bucharage, who has been there for 1192 01:07:33,720 --> 01:07:36,120 Speaker 1: a long time, and he's I think he's a solid guy, 1193 01:07:36,840 --> 01:07:40,360 Speaker 1: he claimed. She claimed that he's sexually harassed her. He 1194 01:07:40,520 --> 01:07:42,840 Speaker 1: came out and said, listen, if she thought that, I'm sorry. 1195 01:07:42,960 --> 01:07:45,480 Speaker 1: I thought we were friends. But he went to step further. 1196 01:07:46,120 --> 01:07:48,600 Speaker 1: He went to his bosses when those allegations came out 1197 01:07:49,200 --> 01:07:52,920 Speaker 1: and showed his bosses all the text messages. And they 1198 01:07:53,040 --> 01:07:57,520 Speaker 1: have since published those text messages and I read them 1199 01:07:57,880 --> 01:08:00,000 Speaker 1: and it sounds like Adrian Lawrence. This is the first 1200 01:08:00,080 --> 01:08:02,760 Speaker 1: time because I've actually always side. I tend to side 1201 01:08:02,800 --> 01:08:04,400 Speaker 1: with the women because I think they have a lot 1202 01:08:04,480 --> 01:08:07,040 Speaker 1: to lose when they come forward on this one. I 1203 01:08:07,160 --> 01:08:10,200 Speaker 1: have to side with the with the man, she said, 1204 01:08:10,240 --> 01:08:12,440 Speaker 1: he said things like corner long legs. Well, they went 1205 01:08:12,520 --> 01:08:14,960 Speaker 1: to dinner together and he was talking about adjusting the 1206 01:08:15,040 --> 01:08:19,439 Speaker 1: seat in the car for her long legs, So that's 1207 01:08:19,479 --> 01:08:22,439 Speaker 1: not him really referring to her legs in a This 1208 01:08:22,680 --> 01:08:25,599 Speaker 1: is this where, this is the beginning. This is why 1209 01:08:25,600 --> 01:08:26,840 Speaker 1: I want to ask you about it because I've been 1210 01:08:26,880 --> 01:08:29,360 Speaker 1: worried that this is where we're heading now. People are 1211 01:08:29,400 --> 01:08:32,040 Speaker 1: seeing this as it's leverage. It's a way to get 1212 01:08:32,080 --> 01:08:34,479 Speaker 1: a payday. You know, little things are gonna be the 1213 01:08:34,479 --> 01:08:37,000 Speaker 1: people are gonna try to magnify them for their own purposes, 1214 01:08:37,040 --> 01:08:40,400 Speaker 1: for their own advancement, right. And I will say most 1215 01:08:40,439 --> 01:08:43,800 Speaker 1: of the current ESPN staffers have been supportive of her 1216 01:08:43,880 --> 01:08:46,600 Speaker 1: she's no longer there, and think that they need to 1217 01:08:46,680 --> 01:08:50,080 Speaker 1: make changes. But all of them have said ESPN is 1218 01:08:50,160 --> 01:08:55,439 Speaker 1: better with this particular issue than other workplaces, So they're saying, 1219 01:08:55,520 --> 01:08:59,880 Speaker 1: maybe her complaints with this individual are true, but compared 1220 01:09:00,000 --> 01:09:02,600 Speaker 1: all the places they worked, this place is awesome. And 1221 01:09:02,800 --> 01:09:05,400 Speaker 1: looking at the text messages, I just don't see a case. 1222 01:09:06,080 --> 01:09:08,639 Speaker 1: He tried to show around the area for people who 1223 01:09:08,680 --> 01:09:10,560 Speaker 1: don't know, you go to Bristol, Connecticut, that is not 1224 01:09:10,840 --> 01:09:14,479 Speaker 1: a a metro as, not a as a not a 1225 01:09:14,560 --> 01:09:18,400 Speaker 1: diverse urban metropolitan ecosystem. No, so if you and you 1226 01:09:18,680 --> 01:09:20,720 Speaker 1: kind of have to move there, and you're moving over 1227 01:09:20,760 --> 01:09:24,840 Speaker 1: again from Boston, from Miami, from Colorado, different cities where 1228 01:09:24,840 --> 01:09:26,240 Speaker 1: you get picked up. Now you you kind of get 1229 01:09:26,280 --> 01:09:28,040 Speaker 1: to the big time. The big time is the middle 1230 01:09:28,040 --> 01:09:32,599 Speaker 1: of nowhere. He offered to show around, she accepted. She said, hey, 1231 01:09:33,040 --> 01:09:34,960 Speaker 1: when are you available? Hey, I'm only on the campus 1232 01:09:35,000 --> 01:09:36,679 Speaker 1: because they set up a whole campus for the staff. 1233 01:09:36,960 --> 01:09:39,400 Speaker 1: They went out to different dinners. It just seems like 1234 01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:42,840 Speaker 1: maybe he said something out of line along the way, 1235 01:09:43,280 --> 01:09:45,760 Speaker 1: but it seems like buying lards. This was a friendship 1236 01:09:46,520 --> 01:09:48,479 Speaker 1: where he may have thought he could say something and 1237 01:09:48,520 --> 01:09:50,960 Speaker 1: maybe she was offended, but he definitely was not a 1238 01:09:51,160 --> 01:09:54,599 Speaker 1: predator who had power over her. Yeah, well, the power 1239 01:09:54,680 --> 01:09:57,520 Speaker 1: dynamic is also very important. A period of peer relationships 1240 01:09:57,560 --> 01:10:01,040 Speaker 1: in the workplace should be treated very dead friendly. Then 1241 01:10:01,160 --> 01:10:04,400 Speaker 1: when somebody has power over your future, you're firing or 1242 01:10:04,479 --> 01:10:06,400 Speaker 1: hiring or any of that kind of stuff. Well, before 1243 01:10:06,439 --> 01:10:08,799 Speaker 1: we run in a break here, Tyrone. The Russell Simmons 1244 01:10:08,880 --> 01:10:13,160 Speaker 1: thing I saw three accusers was four accusing, four accusers, 1245 01:10:13,240 --> 01:10:16,040 Speaker 1: now kind of saying out flat out rape. So, I 1246 01:10:16,080 --> 01:10:18,519 Speaker 1: mean he's he's like a billionaire right or close to it. 1247 01:10:18,560 --> 01:10:22,440 Speaker 1: I mean, he's an incredibly wealthy hip hop and persorio 1248 01:10:22,760 --> 01:10:25,519 Speaker 1: and really important to the black community in that a 1249 01:10:25,600 --> 01:10:28,240 Speaker 1: lot of the comedians that we know, Martin Lawrence, Chris Tucker, 1250 01:10:28,720 --> 01:10:32,240 Speaker 1: Kevin Hart came he with Deaf Comedy Jam, which he created, 1251 01:10:32,320 --> 01:10:36,719 Speaker 1: and without him, there's no them. So he's really important. 1252 01:10:36,800 --> 01:10:38,920 Speaker 1: And not to mention everything like with the music run DMC, 1253 01:10:39,160 --> 01:10:41,960 Speaker 1: L cool J, on and on and on. He's flat 1254 01:10:42,000 --> 01:10:43,960 Speaker 1: out there night. He's the first person in one of 1255 01:10:44,000 --> 01:10:46,759 Speaker 1: these major cases where came out and flat out said nope, 1256 01:10:47,040 --> 01:10:50,960 Speaker 1: no way, didn't happen. I didn't do it. But it's 1257 01:10:51,120 --> 01:10:53,160 Speaker 1: a lot of tests, right yep. And it's no longer 1258 01:10:53,240 --> 01:10:56,479 Speaker 1: Deaf Comedy Jam though it's now like you know, it's 1259 01:10:56,520 --> 01:10:59,559 Speaker 1: no longer Russell Simmons Deaf Comedy Jam. It's just deaf 1260 01:10:59,720 --> 01:11:03,599 Speaker 1: jam comedy. Oh so they already it's the Kevin Spacey 1261 01:11:03,640 --> 01:11:05,280 Speaker 1: thing now where they you know, they erased h They 1262 01:11:05,360 --> 01:11:08,800 Speaker 1: literally erased his face from a movie in post production, right, 1263 01:11:08,880 --> 01:11:11,720 Speaker 1: so yes, and and now they're saying, oh, well, him 1264 01:11:11,800 --> 01:11:14,160 Speaker 1: bettering himself now he does a lot of yoga and meditation. 1265 01:11:14,479 --> 01:11:17,280 Speaker 1: This is him running away from his past. When he's saying, no, 1266 01:11:17,360 --> 01:11:19,879 Speaker 1: I'm just trying to live longer. So it's like everything 1267 01:11:19,960 --> 01:11:22,160 Speaker 1: he does now is under a tremendous amount of scrutiny. 1268 01:11:22,320 --> 01:11:24,479 Speaker 1: But he is flat out that night. He's the first 1269 01:11:24,520 --> 01:11:28,000 Speaker 1: person to come out this strongly into this is here 1270 01:11:28,080 --> 01:11:30,679 Speaker 1: we are. You're getting minor things that are being inflated 1271 01:11:30,720 --> 01:11:33,080 Speaker 1: in the case of this ESPN situation, and we've got 1272 01:11:33,200 --> 01:11:35,200 Speaker 1: to keep an eye out for that. And you also 1273 01:11:35,439 --> 01:11:37,840 Speaker 1: have now the first really high profile case of somebody 1274 01:11:37,840 --> 01:11:41,200 Speaker 1: who's like, Nope, this is this is not me, right, 1275 01:11:41,240 --> 01:11:42,919 Speaker 1: that's what he said.

Here in a few moments, we have someone 1323 01:14:43,280 --> 01:14:45,920 Speaker 1: from the Justic Vaughan from the Center for Immigration Studies 1324 01:14:45,920 --> 01:14:48,200 Speaker 1: talking about immigration year in review and also what we 1325 01:14:48,240 --> 01:14:50,480 Speaker 1: can look forward to next year with the Trump administration, 1326 01:14:50,640 --> 01:14:54,520 Speaker 1: So stay with me for that and more terrorists substruct 1327 01:14:55,280 --> 01:14:58,000 Speaker 1: in the streets and subways of New York City twice. 1328 01:14:58,880 --> 01:15:02,680 Speaker 1: It's in a few months. Both terrorists came to our 1329 01:15:02,760 --> 01:15:07,360 Speaker 1: country through the dysfunctional immigration system that we are correcting 1330 01:15:08,120 --> 01:15:15,640 Speaker 1: and rapidly, and one came through chain migration, chain migration 1331 01:15:15,760 --> 01:15:19,720 Speaker 1: to the other visa lottery. They have a lottery, you 1332 01:15:19,800 --> 01:15:23,559 Speaker 1: pick people. Do you think the country has given us 1333 01:15:23,600 --> 01:15:27,000 Speaker 1: their best people? Know? What kind of a system is 1334 01:15:27,080 --> 01:15:30,360 Speaker 1: that they come in by a lottery? They give us 1335 01:15:30,400 --> 01:15:33,640 Speaker 1: their worst people. They put them in a bin. But 1336 01:15:33,800 --> 01:15:35,880 Speaker 1: in his hand when he's picking him, is the really 1337 01:15:35,960 --> 01:15:39,240 Speaker 1: the worst of the worst. Congratulations you're going to the 1338 01:15:39,360 --> 01:15:46,519 Speaker 1: United States? Okay, water system, lottery system. We're calling for 1339 01:15:46,680 --> 01:15:51,760 Speaker 1: Congress to end chain migration and to end the visa 1340 01:15:51,880 --> 01:15:56,400 Speaker 1: lottery system and replace it with a merit based system 1341 01:15:56,600 --> 01:16:00,519 Speaker 1: of immigration. That was President Trump earlier today talking about 1342 01:16:00,600 --> 01:16:04,000 Speaker 1: where he stands on immigration. Nothing's really happened on it 1343 01:16:04,560 --> 01:16:08,559 Speaker 1: in seen. In fact, there's been some reporting that there 1344 01:16:08,600 --> 01:16:12,799 Speaker 1: are more illegals now at the border than in previous quarters, 1345 01:16:12,920 --> 01:16:15,479 Speaker 1: or more have been captured. What is going on here? 1346 01:16:15,600 --> 01:16:18,160 Speaker 1: What can we expect in or can we at least 1347 01:16:18,200 --> 01:16:21,400 Speaker 1: hope for in? We have Jessica Vaughan with us now. 1348 01:16:21,520 --> 01:16:24,640 Speaker 1: She is Director of Policy Studies at the Center for 1349 01:16:24,680 --> 01:16:27,920 Speaker 1: Immigration Studies. Jessica, thanks for making the time, glad to 1350 01:16:27,960 --> 01:16:30,559 Speaker 1: be with you all Right, First, before I get into 1351 01:16:30,720 --> 01:16:32,720 Speaker 1: the absolute latest news here, I just want to know 1352 01:16:33,680 --> 01:16:37,280 Speaker 1: what could we say about the Trump administration on immigration 1353 01:16:37,640 --> 01:16:40,160 Speaker 1: year one, you know, the the good, the bad, and 1354 01:16:40,240 --> 01:16:45,640 Speaker 1: the man Well, I they've accomplished a lot, really and 1355 01:16:46,040 --> 01:16:49,959 Speaker 1: and clearly immigration has been one of the most important 1356 01:16:50,040 --> 01:16:52,960 Speaker 1: issues that this administration wants to tackle, and they have 1357 01:16:53,040 --> 01:16:55,599 Speaker 1: a lot of clean up to do after eight years 1358 01:16:55,680 --> 01:17:00,880 Speaker 1: of the Obama administration, not only dismantling in the relation enforcement, 1359 01:17:01,040 --> 01:17:06,880 Speaker 1: but also opening up and creating programs that that we're uh, 1360 01:17:07,000 --> 01:17:09,719 Speaker 1: you know, illegal for them to create because only Congress 1361 01:17:09,800 --> 01:17:11,960 Speaker 1: can do that. So they're doing a lot of cleanup. 1362 01:17:12,000 --> 01:17:18,480 Speaker 1: But Interior enforcement is up um almost over the Obama administration. 1363 01:17:19,320 --> 01:17:23,599 Speaker 1: We saw an initial drop historic laws of apprehensions at 1364 01:17:23,640 --> 01:17:28,040 Speaker 1: the border, but there's the courts have imposed a catch 1365 01:17:28,120 --> 01:17:32,639 Speaker 1: and relief policy for unaccompanied miners and families who come 1366 01:17:32,680 --> 01:17:35,360 Speaker 1: from Central America, so their hands are kind of tied there. 1367 01:17:35,880 --> 01:17:40,080 Speaker 1: But they've also cleaned up the legal system by reinstituting 1368 01:17:40,720 --> 01:17:44,479 Speaker 1: programs to correct fraud. They are holding you know, they're 1369 01:17:44,560 --> 01:17:48,240 Speaker 1: arresting people for crimes like identity fraud and immigration fraud 1370 01:17:48,320 --> 01:17:52,000 Speaker 1: that we're ignored by the Obama administration. So the returning 1371 01:17:52,080 --> 01:17:56,280 Speaker 1: integrity to our immigration system and tightening up loopholes as 1372 01:17:56,320 --> 01:17:59,560 Speaker 1: they find them. But really with the President can't do 1373 01:17:59,680 --> 01:18:03,080 Speaker 1: it all all by himself. There are things that Congress 1374 01:18:03,160 --> 01:18:06,760 Speaker 1: has to do, and those are the things like UH 1375 01:18:07,120 --> 01:18:13,040 Speaker 1: ending chain migration, UM, it's doing something about sanctuary cities, UM, 1376 01:18:13,280 --> 01:18:17,080 Speaker 1: ending the visa lottery, and a number of other areas 1377 01:18:17,200 --> 01:18:21,200 Speaker 1: like you know, UM superseding the courts on this issue 1378 01:18:21,240 --> 01:18:24,960 Speaker 1: of catch and release, fixing our asylum system that's so 1379 01:18:25,960 --> 01:18:31,160 Speaker 1: abused by people now and by immigration lawyers. So it 1380 01:18:31,280 --> 01:18:33,559 Speaker 1: really has to be a team effort, and I think 1381 01:18:33,640 --> 01:18:36,559 Speaker 1: the President has made really great progress. He's set out 1382 01:18:36,600 --> 01:18:39,880 Speaker 1: an agenda, he's starting to accomplish things, but at a 1383 01:18:39,960 --> 01:18:44,280 Speaker 1: certain point he needs resources from Congress and also a 1384 01:18:44,360 --> 01:18:46,760 Speaker 1: few tweaks to the law from Congress, and of course 1385 01:18:46,840 --> 01:18:50,920 Speaker 1: only Congress, as I said, can be the major reforms 1386 01:18:51,000 --> 01:18:55,240 Speaker 1: to our legal immigration system, so that are immigration system 1387 01:18:55,320 --> 01:18:59,080 Speaker 1: works for Americans and for the United States of America, 1388 01:18:59,560 --> 01:19:01,439 Speaker 1: not us for the people who want to come here. 1389 01:19:01,760 --> 01:19:03,760 Speaker 1: Jessica what can you tell me about this piece in 1390 01:19:03,800 --> 01:19:08,160 Speaker 1: the Washington Examiner that says Trump administration rolls out global 1391 01:19:08,320 --> 01:19:12,400 Speaker 1: campaign to combat those who overstay their visas in the US. 1392 01:19:13,479 --> 01:19:16,519 Speaker 1: But this is a huge problem. In the last couple 1393 01:19:16,560 --> 01:19:19,960 Speaker 1: of years, the Department of Homeland Security has estimated that 1394 01:19:20,560 --> 01:19:23,560 Speaker 1: more than half a million people who came in on 1395 01:19:23,760 --> 01:19:28,280 Speaker 1: visitor visas or other types of temporary non immigrant visas 1396 01:19:28,640 --> 01:19:31,000 Speaker 1: did not leave when it was time for them to 1397 01:19:31,080 --> 01:19:35,560 Speaker 1: do so, and they stayed on and make up a 1398 01:19:36,080 --> 01:19:39,920 Speaker 1: very large share of the illegal immigrant population in the 1399 01:19:40,040 --> 01:19:44,000 Speaker 1: United States. And part of it is because there has 1400 01:19:44,040 --> 01:19:46,880 Speaker 1: been some little interior enforcement in the country, so they 1401 01:19:46,920 --> 01:19:50,040 Speaker 1: don't fear getting caught or feel getting deported. But the 1402 01:19:50,120 --> 01:19:52,360 Speaker 1: other part of it is that the state Department has 1403 01:19:52,439 --> 01:19:56,599 Speaker 1: had has been, you know, really too lenient and who 1404 01:19:56,840 --> 01:20:00,839 Speaker 1: qualifies for these visas to come here. So the approaching 1405 01:20:00,920 --> 01:20:04,559 Speaker 1: it from both angles to try to address this problem. 1406 01:20:05,040 --> 01:20:07,080 Speaker 1: But you know, it's something that the wall that it fits. 1407 01:20:08,080 --> 01:20:13,080 Speaker 1: Speaking of a wall, we had Kirsten Nielsen just earlier 1408 01:20:13,160 --> 01:20:17,439 Speaker 1: this week say the following we're gonna have a law, 1409 01:20:17,560 --> 01:20:20,040 Speaker 1: we're gonna have border security, and we're gonna protect homeland 1410 01:20:20,040 --> 01:20:21,760 Speaker 1: and would the President, tell you when we've got the job. 1411 01:20:21,840 --> 01:20:25,240 Speaker 1: What did you say from me, build a wall attacked 1412 01:20:25,280 --> 01:20:28,559 Speaker 1: our country? You support the men and women. You see 1413 01:20:28,560 --> 01:20:31,040 Speaker 1: the reality of this wall and how effective it is 1414 01:20:31,120 --> 01:20:34,760 Speaker 1: as a bother when people in Washington or playing politics 1415 01:20:35,200 --> 01:20:38,519 Speaker 1: when it comes to the implementation of the technology needed 1416 01:20:38,560 --> 01:20:40,960 Speaker 1: to be successful. Of course it does, because this is 1417 01:20:41,080 --> 01:20:43,880 Speaker 1: key to our security of our of our homeland. I 1418 01:20:43,920 --> 01:20:45,920 Speaker 1: also find it very confusing. Is as you know, in 1419 01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:49,400 Speaker 1: two thousand six, we had a bill, the Secure Fence Act, 1420 01:20:49,479 --> 01:20:52,439 Speaker 1: that was largely bipartisan that would have done just this. 1421 01:20:53,200 --> 01:20:55,559 Speaker 1: So it is politics. It's easy for fix in Washington 1422 01:20:55,760 --> 01:20:57,639 Speaker 1: talk about the benefits of the law and not a wall. 1423 01:20:58,000 --> 01:21:00,400 Speaker 1: They're not working here, they're not facing the threat sentence 1424 01:21:00,479 --> 01:21:03,360 Speaker 1: of surfacing every day. All right, Jessica, that's the DHS, 1425 01:21:03,479 --> 01:21:06,880 Speaker 1: newly installed DHS chief saying that there's gonna be a wall. 1426 01:21:06,960 --> 01:21:10,280 Speaker 1: We need a wall. Walls great, But are we actually 1427 01:21:10,280 --> 01:21:12,200 Speaker 1: gonna get a wall? If all I want for Christmas 1428 01:21:12,280 --> 01:21:13,719 Speaker 1: is a border wall? Am I going to be happy 1429 01:21:13,800 --> 01:21:18,639 Speaker 1: next year? Um? You will be if Congress does its 1430 01:21:18,760 --> 01:21:21,800 Speaker 1: job and passes a spending bill like they're supposed to 1431 01:21:21,880 --> 01:21:25,479 Speaker 1: do every year, with the resources that the president is 1432 01:21:25,479 --> 01:21:29,439 Speaker 1: asked for to get this done. Um, Secretary Neilson is right. 1433 01:21:29,520 --> 01:21:32,439 Speaker 1: Congress asked for this back in two thousand six, and 1434 01:21:32,640 --> 01:21:35,479 Speaker 1: here eleven years later, it's still not finished. And we 1435 01:21:35,600 --> 01:21:39,400 Speaker 1: need it now more than ever because of the continued 1436 01:21:39,520 --> 01:21:42,840 Speaker 1: influx of people trying to get here over our southwest border, 1437 01:21:43,160 --> 01:21:47,439 Speaker 1: but also because of the drugs and other amiss it 1438 01:21:47,960 --> 01:21:51,639 Speaker 1: smuggling that is going on over the border. Um. It's 1439 01:21:51,680 --> 01:21:54,280 Speaker 1: so most of the illegal drugs that come into this 1440 01:21:54,400 --> 01:21:57,680 Speaker 1: country come over the border. So that's the other thing 1441 01:21:57,760 --> 01:22:02,240 Speaker 1: that the wall would help address. So but you know, again, Um, 1442 01:22:03,160 --> 01:22:04,960 Speaker 1: you're saying, it's Congress and there's only so much. It 1443 01:22:05,000 --> 01:22:08,240 Speaker 1: sounds like from what I'm gathering here, Jessica, that the 1444 01:22:08,520 --> 01:22:11,879 Speaker 1: Trump administration, the executive branch, has been good on immigration 1445 01:22:11,960 --> 01:22:14,360 Speaker 1: this year. Actually, the Trump has been keeping promises to 1446 01:22:14,400 --> 01:22:17,200 Speaker 1: degree that it's in his power to a Congress needs 1447 01:22:17,200 --> 01:22:20,599 Speaker 1: to get its button gear. That's right, and they need 1448 01:22:20,680 --> 01:22:23,519 Speaker 1: to remember why Trump was elected that in part it 1449 01:22:23,640 --> 01:22:27,280 Speaker 1: was because of the promises to address the immigration problems. 1450 01:22:27,720 --> 01:22:29,960 Speaker 1: And some of these can only be done that you know. 1451 01:22:30,080 --> 01:22:32,559 Speaker 1: They they's got a lot on their plate right now, 1452 01:22:32,640 --> 01:22:35,479 Speaker 1: and I don't expect to see any immigration legislation before 1453 01:22:35,560 --> 01:22:38,320 Speaker 1: the end of the year, but it better be at 1454 01:22:38,360 --> 01:22:43,040 Speaker 1: the top of the list for early in eighteen, because, uh, 1455 01:22:43,360 --> 01:22:45,840 Speaker 1: you know, these problems are festering and they need to 1456 01:22:45,880 --> 01:22:49,320 Speaker 1: be resolved, and we don't you want to go through uh, 1457 01:22:49,760 --> 01:22:55,160 Speaker 1: you know, another terrorist attack or more another influx of 1458 01:22:56,080 --> 01:22:59,880 Speaker 1: people from Central America or people of using the asylumces 1459 01:23:00,000 --> 01:23:01,800 Speaker 1: them before this gets fixed.

She 1490 01:24:39,960 --> 01:24:42,640 Speaker 1: is a writer for the Daily Wire. Trick out what 1491 01:24:42,840 --> 01:24:45,559 Speaker 1: she's got up there at the Daily wire dot com. 1492 01:24:45,880 --> 01:24:48,800 Speaker 1: Mrs Nati, good to have you, Thanks for having me 1493 01:24:48,960 --> 01:24:53,400 Speaker 1: all right, let's talk first about how Los Angeles wants 1494 01:24:53,479 --> 01:24:57,200 Speaker 1: to put shelter animals on a vegan diet. I think 1495 01:24:57,360 --> 01:25:00,839 Speaker 1: feeding dogs vegan food is a former of animal cruelty. 1496 01:25:02,000 --> 01:25:06,240 Speaker 1: It basically is dogs need protein. They can't manufacture their 1497 01:25:06,240 --> 01:25:10,280 Speaker 1: own vitamin D. They have so many dietary requirements that 1498 01:25:10,479 --> 01:25:14,080 Speaker 1: it really is basically animal abuse to put them on 1499 01:25:14,280 --> 01:25:17,519 Speaker 1: a vegan diet. But apparently l A wants to leave 1500 01:25:17,640 --> 01:25:21,040 Speaker 1: the nation in being progressive in their pet treatment, So 1501 01:25:21,160 --> 01:25:24,040 Speaker 1: they're asking all of their shelters to ditch the regular 1502 01:25:24,160 --> 01:25:27,599 Speaker 1: kibble and put everybody on it all vegan diet because 1503 01:25:27,920 --> 01:25:31,320 Speaker 1: animals eating animals just isn't right? Are They just gonna 1504 01:25:31,400 --> 01:25:34,680 Speaker 1: blast NPR podcast into the kennel and also make all 1505 01:25:34,760 --> 01:25:38,920 Speaker 1: the dogs meet with their life coaches, right like they're 1506 01:25:38,920 --> 01:25:41,360 Speaker 1: all going to be assessed for their cultural appropriation on 1507 01:25:41,439 --> 01:25:43,600 Speaker 1: the way in their way out. They all need to 1508 01:25:43,680 --> 01:25:47,080 Speaker 1: hear cereal, you know, like I was gonna say, what's 1509 01:25:47,120 --> 01:25:48,320 Speaker 1: the other one? I was gonna say, the other one 1510 01:25:48,360 --> 01:25:51,280 Speaker 1: with that guy is not doing NPR anymore anyway, um, 1511 01:25:51,920 --> 01:25:53,519 Speaker 1: and I would also know that you know, I this 1512 01:25:53,680 --> 01:25:56,240 Speaker 1: is a complete random note, but it's the third hour 1513 01:25:56,320 --> 01:25:57,680 Speaker 1: at least, I feel like we can say whatever we 1514 01:25:57,720 --> 01:26:02,160 Speaker 1: want here. I did some reach search into a fox 1515 01:26:02,320 --> 01:26:04,479 Speaker 1: as a pet because there's a really cool do you 1516 01:26:04,560 --> 01:26:09,360 Speaker 1: know this Instagram account Juniper Fox? Yes, I am familiar. Oh, 1517 01:26:09,520 --> 01:26:11,640 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm all about Juniper Fox. And I'm like, 1518 01:26:11,720 --> 01:26:13,760 Speaker 1: this is amazing because foxes are so cute and it's 1519 01:26:13,840 --> 01:26:15,400 Speaker 1: kind of like a cross between a cat and a 1520 01:26:15,479 --> 01:26:19,320 Speaker 1: dog because foxes have retractable claws, and plus they just 1521 01:26:19,400 --> 01:26:24,200 Speaker 1: look really cute. Turns out they mark all their territory 1522 01:26:24,439 --> 01:26:26,960 Speaker 1: and it smells like skunk and you can't get them 1523 01:26:27,000 --> 01:26:29,320 Speaker 1: to stop doing it. And oh, by the way, there's 1524 01:26:29,320 --> 01:26:32,160 Speaker 1: a certain chemical I forget what it is, something that's 1525 01:26:32,200 --> 01:26:33,680 Speaker 1: in a certain kind of food that you have to 1526 01:26:33,720 --> 01:26:35,680 Speaker 1: give them or else they'll go blind and die and 1527 01:26:35,720 --> 01:26:37,320 Speaker 1: you have to be very rigorous about it. And I 1528 01:26:37,479 --> 01:26:39,720 Speaker 1: was like, that doesn't sound like a good pet for 1529 01:26:39,800 --> 01:26:43,280 Speaker 1: me to have. Some of these exotic animals turn out 1530 01:26:43,320 --> 01:26:45,040 Speaker 1: to be a lot more work. Like I I have 1531 01:26:45,120 --> 01:26:47,479 Speaker 1: a friend who wanted for years to have a wallaby, 1532 01:26:48,120 --> 01:26:51,200 Speaker 1: and now she has sounds amazing. I want a wallaby? 1533 01:26:51,240 --> 01:26:52,840 Speaker 1: Who's your from with the wallaby? Does she have an 1534 01:26:52,840 --> 01:26:58,880 Speaker 1: Instagram account? The wallaby I'm legitimately writing this down right now, 1535 01:26:59,040 --> 01:27:01,120 Speaker 1: and I want to follow, Well, be the wallaby. That 1536 01:27:01,160 --> 01:27:05,400 Speaker 1: sounds amazing. How's it working out for It's working out okay, 1537 01:27:05,520 --> 01:27:10,000 Speaker 1: but's basically I adopted a baby kangaroo and now I 1538 01:27:10,160 --> 01:27:13,760 Speaker 1: just have a baby kangaroo. Like it didn't turn out 1539 01:27:13,800 --> 01:27:16,080 Speaker 1: as wonderful as she had hoped, but I think it 1540 01:27:16,160 --> 01:27:21,000 Speaker 1: turned out as adorable as she had hoped. That is amazing, Okay. 1541 01:27:21,240 --> 01:27:24,320 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm excited about this. And another day we'll 1542 01:27:24,360 --> 01:27:26,599 Speaker 1: talk about how one day I hope to adopt a wombat. 1543 01:27:26,680 --> 01:27:30,360 Speaker 1: But that's a whole separate discussion. So l a vegan diet. 1544 01:27:30,439 --> 01:27:33,200 Speaker 1: We got that on our list here. Oh what is 1545 01:27:33,240 --> 01:27:36,920 Speaker 1: this about? So you're a Chicago in right, Chicago right? 1546 01:27:36,960 --> 01:27:39,040 Speaker 1: Because I and I actually got to see you in Chicago, 1547 01:27:39,120 --> 01:27:41,240 Speaker 1: and event was that was exciting. I actually saw Emily 1548 01:27:41,720 --> 01:27:45,559 Speaker 1: live and in person. And uh Ram Emmanuel, though has 1549 01:27:45,560 --> 01:27:48,719 Speaker 1: declared Chicago at Trump Free city. I feel like there's 1550 01:27:48,720 --> 01:27:51,200 Speaker 1: a I feel like there's a you know, a separation 1551 01:27:51,280 --> 01:27:53,960 Speaker 1: of powers issues here, or or like the mayor can't 1552 01:27:54,000 --> 01:27:57,479 Speaker 1: just banned an American citizen, particularly the president. No, no, 1553 01:27:57,720 --> 01:28:00,800 Speaker 1: he can't actually just say that. Donald can't spend a 1554 01:28:00,920 --> 01:28:03,080 Speaker 1: night like in his own hotel because we actually have 1555 01:28:03,120 --> 01:28:06,800 Speaker 1: a Trump tower in Chicago. Trump on the size, it's 1556 01:28:06,960 --> 01:28:11,360 Speaker 1: very prominent, but he mayor und Emmanuel went on Colbert's 1557 01:28:11,400 --> 01:28:14,720 Speaker 1: show and was like, oh, we have Chicago is the 1558 01:28:14,800 --> 01:28:17,320 Speaker 1: first Trump free city, as though this was going to 1559 01:28:17,400 --> 01:28:19,439 Speaker 1: be some sort of selling point for living in Chicago. 1560 01:28:19,960 --> 01:28:22,680 Speaker 1: It's the first Trump free city. We're banning him from 1561 01:28:22,720 --> 01:28:27,360 Speaker 1: our city limits. No, I mean, alright, fine, but it's 1562 01:28:27,400 --> 01:28:30,960 Speaker 1: not exactly like all of Chicago's problems are solved. We 1563 01:28:31,040 --> 01:28:36,680 Speaker 1: have a billion dollar budget crisis, we have a where 1564 01:28:36,720 --> 01:28:40,840 Speaker 1: the number one city for losing population, so we have 1565 01:28:40,920 --> 01:28:44,320 Speaker 1: six hundred homicides. Like I think, we've got bigger things 1566 01:28:44,320 --> 01:28:46,519 Speaker 1: to worry about than whether Donald Trump fronts the hotel 1567 01:28:46,600 --> 01:28:51,960 Speaker 1: room in Chicago. Trump mentioned in his speech here. He 1568 01:28:52,040 --> 01:28:55,439 Speaker 1: mentioned Chicago in the speech play that please Tyrone. Now 1569 01:28:56,040 --> 01:29:00,400 Speaker 1: more than ever, we must support the men and women 1570 01:29:00,720 --> 01:29:03,920 Speaker 1: in blue. In the last two years, America has seen 1571 01:29:03,960 --> 01:29:09,000 Speaker 1: a tragic rise in violent crime. In two thousand and 1572 01:29:09,120 --> 01:29:14,640 Speaker 1: fifteen and two thousand and sixteen, we witnessed the steepest 1573 01:29:14,680 --> 01:29:19,800 Speaker 1: two year consecutive increase in murders in nearly half a 1574 01:29:19,960 --> 01:29:24,559 Speaker 1: century and you look at what's going on in Chicago. 1575 01:29:25,080 --> 01:29:28,439 Speaker 1: What the hell is going on in Chicago? What the 1576 01:29:28,560 --> 01:29:32,960 Speaker 1: hell is happening there? Uh so, what is going on there? Emily, 1577 01:29:33,000 --> 01:29:36,600 Speaker 1: you're there, you're a journalist. He's not wrong. In the 1578 01:29:36,800 --> 01:29:39,240 Speaker 1: Times and prom Emmanuel has been mayor, which is just 1579 01:29:39,520 --> 01:29:42,439 Speaker 1: a little over four years, we have actually doubled our 1580 01:29:42,520 --> 01:29:46,200 Speaker 1: homicide rate and astonishing. So this is it's astonishing and 1581 01:29:46,280 --> 01:29:48,960 Speaker 1: it's mostly from game warfare on the South and West sides, 1582 01:29:49,479 --> 01:29:52,639 Speaker 1: but we just can't control it. In fact, the actual 1583 01:29:52,960 --> 01:29:56,439 Speaker 1: chief of the Police Union went to the White House 1584 01:29:56,640 --> 01:29:59,439 Speaker 1: asking for the White House to interfere to do something, 1585 01:29:59,520 --> 01:30:03,040 Speaker 1: to offer some sort of federal aid, and Chicago refused it. 1586 01:30:03,520 --> 01:30:08,519 Speaker 1: So we're looking at a more than six hundred homicide year. 1587 01:30:08,680 --> 01:30:11,040 Speaker 1: Last year, we ended the year with just a little 1588 01:30:11,120 --> 01:30:14,200 Speaker 1: over five hundred, So this is a big jump from 1589 01:30:14,640 --> 01:30:18,000 Speaker 1: seventeen and something's got to give here soon. We got 1590 01:30:18,040 --> 01:30:20,080 Speaker 1: Emily's Nati in the line of the Daily Wire or 1591 01:30:20,200 --> 01:30:24,600 Speaker 1: she Chicago Bay. So speaking of all things Chicago and 1592 01:30:24,760 --> 01:30:28,240 Speaker 1: Rama Manuel and and his terrible nous. Uh he is 1593 01:30:28,320 --> 01:30:31,920 Speaker 1: going to give out I Chicago I d s for 1594 01:30:32,120 --> 01:30:36,000 Speaker 1: the quote undocumented and those on the sidelines. What is 1595 01:30:36,080 --> 01:30:40,200 Speaker 1: that This is a weird plan on the part of 1596 01:30:40,320 --> 01:30:43,800 Speaker 1: Chicago to try to recognize the illegal immigrants who live 1597 01:30:43,880 --> 01:30:46,760 Speaker 1: within the city. It's not just enough, apparently that we're 1598 01:30:46,800 --> 01:30:49,960 Speaker 1: a sanctuary city that we can take in everybody and 1599 01:30:50,200 --> 01:30:53,519 Speaker 1: ICE is not able to ask them their immigration status 1600 01:30:53,680 --> 01:30:57,080 Speaker 1: when they're applying for a job or when an ICE 1601 01:30:57,320 --> 01:31:00,360 Speaker 1: person knocks on their door. Now we're actually going to 1602 01:31:00,439 --> 01:31:03,680 Speaker 1: give them packs I D numbers so they can pay 1603 01:31:03,760 --> 01:31:07,920 Speaker 1: city and state and federal taxes and also receive benefits. 1604 01:31:07,960 --> 01:31:10,120 Speaker 1: So of course this is going over very well with 1605 01:31:10,200 --> 01:31:13,679 Speaker 1: people in Chicago, considering that the city is dead broke 1606 01:31:14,040 --> 01:31:16,879 Speaker 1: and not able to pay for its actual school system. 1607 01:31:17,240 --> 01:31:21,120 Speaker 1: Now we're talking about potentially extending benefits to people who 1608 01:31:21,240 --> 01:31:24,160 Speaker 1: do not have legal status. But I mean, we don't 1609 01:31:24,200 --> 01:31:28,280 Speaker 1: want Trump, so obviously that's that's something I guess. So 1610 01:31:28,720 --> 01:31:30,519 Speaker 1: all right, so it's Trump free city, but he's given 1611 01:31:30,560 --> 01:31:33,360 Speaker 1: out free ideas for all the illegals. One more thing 1612 01:31:33,560 --> 01:31:35,519 Speaker 1: I wanted to touch on here because I know you've 1613 01:31:35,560 --> 01:31:40,160 Speaker 1: probably got exciting holiday plans in the in the Zanati household. 1614 01:31:40,240 --> 01:31:41,679 Speaker 1: Come up, you gotta do you have a last minute 1615 01:31:41,720 --> 01:31:45,320 Speaker 1: shopping You've got to get to I have finished my shopping, 1616 01:31:45,680 --> 01:31:47,880 Speaker 1: but I'm sure that there's going to be somebody I forgot, 1617 01:31:47,960 --> 01:31:50,639 Speaker 1: so I definitely have some last minute shopping. I got 1618 01:31:50,720 --> 01:31:53,799 Speaker 1: you all right. Well, one more thing though, just update 1619 01:31:53,920 --> 01:31:57,840 Speaker 1: me on Blake Fahrenholt. We didn't get to talk about 1620 01:31:57,920 --> 01:31:59,679 Speaker 1: him earlier. We've been talking about some of the sketchy 1621 01:32:00,200 --> 01:32:03,760 Speaker 1: and bad dudes out there, uh, and the allegations and 1622 01:32:03,760 --> 01:32:06,160 Speaker 1: all that stuff. But what's going on Blake Farrenhold, another 1623 01:32:06,200 --> 01:32:09,360 Speaker 1: guy in Congress is in some trouble. Yeah, So Blake 1624 01:32:09,439 --> 01:32:14,200 Speaker 1: Farrenhold ended up having to announce his retirement earlier this week. 1625 01:32:14,600 --> 01:32:17,400 Speaker 1: He was the subject of an eighty four thousand dollar 1626 01:32:17,520 --> 01:32:21,440 Speaker 1: lawsuit that Congress settled on his behalf. It's not necessarily 1627 01:32:21,560 --> 01:32:25,920 Speaker 1: sexual harassment. What it really is is a unsafe and 1628 01:32:26,080 --> 01:32:30,679 Speaker 1: intimidating work environment. So he's been accused of making dirty jokes, 1629 01:32:31,360 --> 01:32:35,400 Speaker 1: of making his employees feel kind of achy when they're 1630 01:32:35,439 --> 01:32:38,840 Speaker 1: in his office, making things very difficult for them, and 1631 01:32:39,120 --> 01:32:44,639 Speaker 1: one employee actually approached Congress, threatened to sue, and settled 1632 01:32:44,720 --> 01:32:48,840 Speaker 1: for eighty four thousand dollars. This past week, another employee, 1633 01:32:49,040 --> 01:32:53,599 Speaker 1: former communications director at Farenhold's office, approached the House House 1634 01:32:53,720 --> 01:32:57,599 Speaker 1: Ethics Committee and said that he was in an unsafe 1635 01:32:57,640 --> 01:33:00,799 Speaker 1: for environment, that he wanted to make a four normal complaint. 1636 01:33:01,120 --> 01:33:03,400 Speaker 1: And it was at that point that Fahrenholt just said, 1637 01:33:03,520 --> 01:33:06,519 Speaker 1: I think probably more is coming down the line, so 1638 01:33:06,640 --> 01:33:09,640 Speaker 1: I'm going to step aside. And he's the first Republican 1639 01:33:09,760 --> 01:33:13,960 Speaker 1: we've had, aside from Trent Frank's who also had some 1640 01:33:14,439 --> 01:33:19,880 Speaker 1: issues with his staff, to take l Frankins sort of 1641 01:33:20,040 --> 01:33:24,000 Speaker 1: lead and leave Congress. So we're looking at perhaps another 1642 01:33:24,240 --> 01:33:27,200 Speaker 1: dozen or so accusations like this, so he could only 1643 01:33:27,280 --> 01:33:30,640 Speaker 1: be the first of many. Emily's Naughty is at the 1644 01:33:30,720 --> 01:33:32,960 Speaker 1: Daily Wire. She's a writer. Check out the Daily wire 1645 01:33:33,120 --> 01:33:36,400 Speaker 1: dot com. Emily having Mary Christmas in a happy New Year. 1646 01:33:36,400 --> 01:33:39,920 Speaker 1: We're excited to talk to you. Get sounds good, Happy, 1647 01:33:40,160 --> 01:33:43,240 Speaker 1: Happy Christmas. Happy Christmas to you. All right, team, We're 1648 01:33:43,280 --> 01:33:45,479 Speaker 1: going to roll into a break. We'll be back in 1649 01:33:46,320 --> 01:33:48,240 Speaker 1: just a few minutes. Here, I'm going to talk to 1650 01:33:48,320 --> 01:33:51,639 Speaker 1: you about I'm gonna talk to you about great white 1651 01:33:51,640 --> 01:33:54,760 Speaker 1: sharks and killer whales. But it's gonna make sense, trust me. 1652 01:33:55,280 --> 01:33:57,400 Speaker 1: That's coming up. So I want to share a totally 1653 01:33:57,520 --> 01:33:59,880 Speaker 1: random story with you for a few minutes. If I can. 1654 01:34:00,040 --> 01:34:04,120 Speaker 1: And my little brother is traveling the world right now. 1655 01:34:04,240 --> 01:34:08,160 Speaker 1: He's down in on vacation in South Africa, and he's 1656 01:34:08,200 --> 01:34:14,360 Speaker 1: just posting all of these incredible photos. South Africa's I've 1657 01:34:14,400 --> 01:34:16,559 Speaker 1: heard it's an amazing place. I've never been, but he's 1658 01:34:16,600 --> 01:34:18,920 Speaker 1: he's having a great time. He's posting all these photos 1659 01:34:19,000 --> 01:34:22,320 Speaker 1: and he's, you know, seeing baby cheetahs in the wild, 1660 01:34:22,720 --> 01:34:25,720 Speaker 1: lions and I was gonna say tigers and bears, but 1661 01:34:25,760 --> 01:34:28,479 Speaker 1: that's actually not true. He's seeing neither tigers nor bears 1662 01:34:28,520 --> 01:34:32,040 Speaker 1: where he is, but lions and giraffes and gazelles and 1663 01:34:32,120 --> 01:34:35,200 Speaker 1: all that stuff that you would think, um, you know 1664 01:34:35,320 --> 01:34:38,880 Speaker 1: ward Hog, Like, was Pumba Tim own Amy the ward Hog? 1665 01:34:39,040 --> 01:34:42,280 Speaker 1: Do we know Tim the lion King? Come on? One 1666 01:34:42,280 --> 01:34:45,360 Speaker 1: of them was oh gosh, yeah, you this is your generation. 1667 01:34:45,400 --> 01:34:46,840 Speaker 1: You're supposed to know this one. All right. I'll let 1668 01:34:46,840 --> 01:34:49,280 Speaker 1: I'll let it slide this time. But anyway, there's a 1669 01:34:49,439 --> 01:34:52,000 Speaker 1: there's a ward that she's sent ward Hog photos. And 1670 01:34:53,000 --> 01:34:54,840 Speaker 1: but I'm one thing that I thought, and my little 1671 01:34:54,880 --> 01:34:59,840 Speaker 1: brother is a very intrepid fellow. I've always wanted to 1672 01:34:59,880 --> 01:35:02,120 Speaker 1: do that thing where you get into a cage. I 1673 01:35:02,200 --> 01:35:04,160 Speaker 1: know there's some people like, that's so dumb, buck, what's 1674 01:35:04,200 --> 01:35:06,439 Speaker 1: wrong with you? But I think it sounds cool to 1675 01:35:06,520 --> 01:35:10,320 Speaker 1: get into one of those cages where you have the 1676 01:35:10,400 --> 01:35:14,160 Speaker 1: great white sharks that come up close to the cage, Like, 1677 01:35:14,280 --> 01:35:16,280 Speaker 1: I just figure that looks pretty cool, right, What is 1678 01:35:17,000 --> 01:35:19,240 Speaker 1: you think of? And people will say to car carroden 1679 01:35:19,320 --> 01:35:23,599 Speaker 1: carcarious Latin name for the great white sharks, scientific name, uh, 1680 01:35:24,160 --> 01:35:27,360 Speaker 1: it's the apex predator, like nothing could ever match the 1681 01:35:28,520 --> 01:35:31,160 Speaker 1: the might and fury in the sea of of the 1682 01:35:31,280 --> 01:35:35,400 Speaker 1: great white. And it turns out that's not true, and 1683 01:35:35,520 --> 01:35:39,679 Speaker 1: that actually affects whether or not you can go see 1684 01:35:39,760 --> 01:35:42,240 Speaker 1: great whites anymore in South Africa. So so the biggest 1685 01:35:42,680 --> 01:35:45,559 Speaker 1: whites they call them white pointers, I believe, in either 1686 01:35:45,640 --> 01:35:48,439 Speaker 1: South Africa or Australia, but the biggest ones tend to 1687 01:35:48,560 --> 01:35:52,719 Speaker 1: be off of Australia and also actually off the coast 1688 01:35:52,760 --> 01:35:55,680 Speaker 1: of California, some really big great white sharks out there. 1689 01:35:55,720 --> 01:35:57,160 Speaker 1: I have a little sister, by the way, who's like 1690 01:35:57,160 --> 01:36:00,439 Speaker 1: an amateur shark expert, a lawyer, yes, but also an 1691 01:36:00,479 --> 01:36:05,160 Speaker 1: amateur shark expert. And the great whites off South Africa 1692 01:36:05,240 --> 01:36:08,600 Speaker 1: tend to be more aerial and acrobatic, and there was 1693 01:36:08,640 --> 01:36:12,000 Speaker 1: a very well established population of them, and people could 1694 01:36:12,040 --> 01:36:13,960 Speaker 1: get in those in the dive cage. You do any 1695 01:36:14,080 --> 01:36:15,640 Speaker 1: much experience, he basically just had to be able to 1696 01:36:15,720 --> 01:36:18,080 Speaker 1: breathe through the apparatus. You get in there, you're in 1697 01:36:18,120 --> 01:36:20,040 Speaker 1: a big steel cage, and you see the white sharks, right, 1698 01:36:20,080 --> 01:36:22,599 Speaker 1: and it sounds really cool. But but my brother can't 1699 01:36:22,680 --> 01:36:25,640 Speaker 1: do it. And he he thought about doing it. But 1700 01:36:25,800 --> 01:36:28,800 Speaker 1: it turns out that the whole notion of the great 1701 01:36:28,840 --> 01:36:31,960 Speaker 1: white shark as the absolute apex predator of the seed 1702 01:36:32,040 --> 01:36:36,040 Speaker 1: is not true. In fact, there's a big problem right 1703 01:36:36,120 --> 01:36:40,400 Speaker 1: now off of South Africa because as crazy as this is, 1704 01:36:40,920 --> 01:36:45,639 Speaker 1: white sharks are being killed off. White sharks are being 1705 01:36:45,840 --> 01:36:50,360 Speaker 1: killed off by killer whales, and in fact, not only 1706 01:36:50,479 --> 01:36:55,040 Speaker 1: are the killer whales uh killing the gray white sharks, 1707 01:36:55,680 --> 01:36:59,920 Speaker 1: they are almost with it's been described as with surge 1708 01:37:00,040 --> 01:37:04,960 Speaker 1: in like precision, removing the shark's liver because that is 1709 01:37:05,040 --> 01:37:09,439 Speaker 1: the most nutrient dense part of the shark. People have 1710 01:37:09,560 --> 01:37:11,080 Speaker 1: been saying that that, you know, there have been some 1711 01:37:11,200 --> 01:37:16,040 Speaker 1: researchers that are are seeing this and they've never seen 1712 01:37:16,080 --> 01:37:17,800 Speaker 1: anything like this before. I mean that The New York 1713 01:37:17,840 --> 01:37:21,360 Speaker 1: Post describe some of the theories of how this is 1714 01:37:22,360 --> 01:37:24,439 Speaker 1: how this has happening. Where they find the bodies, they 1715 01:37:24,520 --> 01:37:27,599 Speaker 1: find the washed up carcasses, and it's clearly the only 1716 01:37:27,680 --> 01:37:30,160 Speaker 1: thing that could be doing this, and it's also different 1717 01:37:30,479 --> 01:37:33,599 Speaker 1: bite marks, and uh, you know, they they have ways, 1718 01:37:33,760 --> 01:37:37,120 Speaker 1: you know, hashtag science, right, They've got ways through marine 1719 01:37:37,160 --> 01:37:40,000 Speaker 1: biology stuff of figuring this out. But here's the theory. 1720 01:37:40,280 --> 01:37:41,760 Speaker 1: This from the New York Post a couple of days ago. 1721 01:37:42,040 --> 01:37:45,679 Speaker 1: One theory is that Orca's shut down all communication, sneak 1722 01:37:45,800 --> 01:37:48,639 Speaker 1: up and stun the shark by slapping it with its massive, 1723 01:37:48,720 --> 01:37:51,840 Speaker 1: powerful tail. Then it flips the shark on its back, 1724 01:37:52,280 --> 01:37:56,240 Speaker 1: causing momentary paralysis, and pushes the shark through the water 1725 01:37:56,360 --> 01:37:59,920 Speaker 1: until it suffocates. The orca finishes off the attack by 1726 01:38:00,120 --> 01:38:03,080 Speaker 1: carefully tearing open a hole in the shark to remove 1727 01:38:03,240 --> 01:38:08,080 Speaker 1: the liver, the largest and most nutrient rich oregan. Uh 1728 01:38:08,200 --> 01:38:09,640 Speaker 1: So they've only had a hand that's the end of 1729 01:38:09,640 --> 01:38:11,280 Speaker 1: the quote there. But they've only had a few white 1730 01:38:11,320 --> 01:38:14,200 Speaker 1: sharks wash up on the beach with the liver removed 1731 01:38:14,240 --> 01:38:16,479 Speaker 1: in this way. But they can't they're not seeing as 1732 01:38:16,520 --> 01:38:19,000 Speaker 1: many sharks out there, which means that white shark tourism 1733 01:38:19,120 --> 01:38:22,680 Speaker 1: is way down too. And it's because they think that 1734 01:38:23,400 --> 01:38:25,479 Speaker 1: there's like a pot of killer whales out there that 1735 01:38:25,600 --> 01:38:28,120 Speaker 1: just the the baddest dudes in the ocean, and they're 1736 01:38:28,200 --> 01:38:30,960 Speaker 1: just killing white sharks, which is pretty incredible when you 1737 01:38:31,040 --> 01:38:33,519 Speaker 1: think about it. Um. I will note that there was 1738 01:38:33,520 --> 01:38:37,160 Speaker 1: actually a really really bad horror movie that I saw 1739 01:38:38,040 --> 01:38:39,960 Speaker 1: here in New York on like the local I think 1740 01:38:39,960 --> 01:38:41,800 Speaker 1: it was w P I X eleven, which used to 1741 01:38:41,840 --> 01:38:46,000 Speaker 1: have all these uh kind of B level movies that 1742 01:38:46,040 --> 01:38:47,680 Speaker 1: would run all the time, and I would watch them, 1743 01:38:48,400 --> 01:38:51,439 Speaker 1: and the Orca. The movie was called Orca, and it 1744 01:38:51,520 --> 01:38:54,439 Speaker 1: was about a killer whale that goes rogue and and 1745 01:38:54,479 --> 01:38:56,040 Speaker 1: it's eating It's sort of like Jaws, but with a 1746 01:38:56,120 --> 01:38:59,960 Speaker 1: killer whale. And what's that that doesn't happen really? I mean, 1747 01:39:00,040 --> 01:39:01,880 Speaker 1: there have been some incidents with people in whales, but 1748 01:39:02,080 --> 01:39:04,840 Speaker 1: when they're in captivity, and that's a whole other discussion. 1749 01:39:05,920 --> 01:39:07,880 Speaker 1: But what you find out when you actually do a 1750 01:39:07,920 --> 01:39:11,000 Speaker 1: little research on these guys is that they're a lot bigger, heavier, 1751 01:39:11,080 --> 01:39:14,240 Speaker 1: and more powerful than sharks and a whole lot smarter. 1752 01:39:15,080 --> 01:39:17,080 Speaker 1: And that's pretty crazy. So anyway, my little brother is 1753 01:39:17,120 --> 01:39:19,960 Speaker 1: not diving with white sharks because they in South Africa 1754 01:39:20,080 --> 01:39:26,439 Speaker 1: can't find them because killer whales are like snipers in 1755 01:39:26,520 --> 01:39:30,200 Speaker 1: the ocean, knocking them out and taking their livers. That's 1756 01:39:30,240 --> 01:39:33,000 Speaker 1: pretty intent stuff I know has nothing to do with Christmas. 1757 01:39:33,080 --> 01:39:35,280 Speaker 1: And you're like, Buck, what is this story? I just 1758 01:39:35,360 --> 01:39:38,960 Speaker 1: thought it was really interesting. I still think it's really interesting. Man. 1759 01:39:39,680 --> 01:39:41,760 Speaker 1: I guess I won't get a chance to swim with 1760 01:39:41,920 --> 01:39:43,920 Speaker 1: white sharks anytime soon. If I go down to South 1761 01:39:43,960 --> 01:39:48,960 Speaker 1: Africa anyway. They travel sweeter, that's what we call them. 1762 01:39:49,280 --> 01:39:52,200 Speaker 1: And Uh, I'll be back with some team, Buck speaks 1763 01:39:52,360 --> 01:39:54,840 Speaker 1: in just a few minutes. Stay with me. Well, Team, 1764 01:39:54,920 --> 01:39:57,840 Speaker 1: it's a snowy night here in New York City, so 1765 01:39:58,000 --> 01:40:01,000 Speaker 1: I'm getting ready to close up shop in the Freedom 1766 01:40:01,080 --> 01:40:07,040 Speaker 1: Hut and trudge through the accumulation of UH sludge that 1767 01:40:07,040 --> 01:40:08,840 Speaker 1: will be on the streets, no doubt waiting for me. 1768 01:40:08,960 --> 01:40:12,320 Speaker 1: Tyrone and I were talking Amy too. We didn't see 1769 01:40:12,360 --> 01:40:15,680 Speaker 1: this one coming. I usually when there's major weather that's 1770 01:40:15,680 --> 01:40:17,720 Speaker 1: gonna hit the East Coast, the media is like, oh 1771 01:40:17,840 --> 01:40:22,719 Speaker 1: my gosh, there's gotta be weather. But this time around, 1772 01:40:22,760 --> 01:40:25,400 Speaker 1: there was no. I didn't see any warning on anything. 1773 01:40:25,680 --> 01:40:28,680 Speaker 1: I guess there was enough actual news to fill the 1774 01:40:28,760 --> 01:40:31,880 Speaker 1: news cycle this week, so I was caught surprised. Anyway, 1775 01:40:31,920 --> 01:40:34,800 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a nice weekend to be snowed in. 1776 01:40:35,600 --> 01:40:37,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get into some team buck speaks in just 1777 01:40:37,880 --> 01:40:40,320 Speaker 1: a moment here. I wanted to tell you though, that 1778 01:40:40,840 --> 01:40:43,880 Speaker 1: we have been putting in motion some pieces on the 1779 01:40:43,960 --> 01:40:49,599 Speaker 1: History podcast.

So uh, let's get into Oh wait, no, 1805 01:42:05,360 --> 01:42:07,719 Speaker 1: one more thing. I have a house guest this weekend. 1806 01:42:08,320 --> 01:42:11,040 Speaker 1: A friend of Ms Molly's is staying with us, a 1807 01:42:11,200 --> 01:42:14,080 Speaker 1: friend of hers from for many, many years ago, and 1808 01:42:14,680 --> 01:42:19,280 Speaker 1: I am uh looking forward to it. I yeah, right, 1809 01:42:19,360 --> 01:42:21,800 Speaker 1: you gotta be just the one thing. I never liked 1810 01:42:21,920 --> 01:42:25,280 Speaker 1: being a house guest. This is just a weird idiosyncrasy 1811 01:42:25,360 --> 01:42:29,240 Speaker 1: about me. I've never been comfortable really staying in other 1812 01:42:29,280 --> 01:42:32,599 Speaker 1: people's homes, no matter how nice they are, no matter 1813 01:42:33,479 --> 01:42:35,919 Speaker 1: what they try to do to make me feel comfortable. 1814 01:42:36,400 --> 01:42:40,000 Speaker 1: I'm always polite and I try to be a good 1815 01:42:40,080 --> 01:42:42,720 Speaker 1: house guest. But I just I just always I like 1816 01:42:42,840 --> 01:42:45,280 Speaker 1: to be in my own space, or i'd like to 1817 01:42:45,320 --> 01:42:47,599 Speaker 1: be in my space or paying people for the space. 1818 01:42:47,680 --> 01:42:49,920 Speaker 1: I mean, I I don't generally like to be a 1819 01:42:50,800 --> 01:42:53,400 Speaker 1: house guest. It's just not something that some people love it. 1820 01:42:53,439 --> 01:42:55,360 Speaker 1: You know, they want to crash with their buddies. I've 1821 01:42:55,400 --> 01:42:58,519 Speaker 1: got friends my age thirty five, and over the holidays 1822 01:42:58,520 --> 01:43:02,120 Speaker 1: they'll still go crash out on somebody's couch somewhere and 1823 01:43:02,320 --> 01:43:07,280 Speaker 1: they love that. They like that, you know, adult sleep over, Netflix, 1824 01:43:07,520 --> 01:43:10,280 Speaker 1: binge vibe you get from just staying at your buddy's 1825 01:43:10,280 --> 01:43:13,000 Speaker 1: place out in the living room. I don't like to 1826 01:43:13,320 --> 01:43:15,560 Speaker 1: even with a guest bedroom, even if I have a 1827 01:43:16,560 --> 01:43:19,639 Speaker 1: guest shellet waiting for me or a little guest cottage, 1828 01:43:19,880 --> 01:43:22,880 Speaker 1: whatever fancy terms are the people used for this stuff. 1829 01:43:23,400 --> 01:43:25,880 Speaker 1: Um still, I don't know being a house guest. And 1830 01:43:25,920 --> 01:43:27,640 Speaker 1: I agree, what's that? What's the old thing about how 1831 01:43:27,760 --> 01:43:31,800 Speaker 1: house guests are like fish? They start to stink after 1832 01:43:31,960 --> 01:43:34,000 Speaker 1: is it three days or four days? I think it's 1833 01:43:34,080 --> 01:43:36,759 Speaker 1: three days, but that sounds about right to me. Amy, 1834 01:43:36,800 --> 01:43:39,760 Speaker 1: it's a three days. You've never heard this my old 1835 01:43:39,840 --> 01:43:42,200 Speaker 1: man wisdom really just because it's like a generational she 1836 01:43:42,280 --> 01:43:44,360 Speaker 1: doesn't want to say it. There's a generational gap here, 1837 01:43:44,400 --> 01:43:46,760 Speaker 1: so I know, you know, I use words like an 1838 01:43:46,760 --> 01:43:50,240 Speaker 1: income poop, and that's just not part of the jargon 1839 01:43:50,320 --> 01:43:52,680 Speaker 1: of of Amy's part of the younger generation. So that 1840 01:43:52,760 --> 01:43:55,760 Speaker 1: doesn't really doesn't really happy much. Sometimes I do have 1841 01:43:55,880 --> 01:43:57,920 Speaker 1: to yell get off my lawn in here, just to 1842 01:43:57,960 --> 01:44:04,280 Speaker 1: remind everybody that you know, I'm technically but I feel 1843 01:44:04,320 --> 01:44:06,680 Speaker 1: I feel sixty. Sometimes Tyrone and I are about the 1844 01:44:06,720 --> 01:44:09,680 Speaker 1: same age though, so Tyrone, but Tyrone's wisdom comes through 1845 01:44:09,720 --> 01:44:11,840 Speaker 1: all the time, so that's not surprising to any of you. 1846 01:44:12,280 --> 01:44:14,880 Speaker 1: All Right, here we go. Um, we got some team 1847 01:44:14,920 --> 01:44:18,559 Speaker 1: Buck speaks coming in. Michael with the following, you've never 1848 01:44:18,640 --> 01:44:21,000 Speaker 1: been skiing, I think you do live under a rock 1849 01:44:21,160 --> 01:44:24,599 Speaker 1: in the Bronx Zoo. You want a real workout, try 1850 01:44:24,760 --> 01:44:27,960 Speaker 1: cross country skiing. You want to learn it, go to 1851 01:44:28,120 --> 01:44:32,920 Speaker 1: the Waterville Valley Resort in New Hampshire. Uh, my son 1852 01:44:33,320 --> 01:44:35,439 Speaker 1: is there. He runs the Nordic Center and he'll hook 1853 01:44:35,439 --> 01:44:38,040 Speaker 1: it up. Other than perhaps a pulled muscler to you're 1854 01:44:38,080 --> 01:44:40,800 Speaker 1: way less likely to get hurt doing Nordic alpine. You 1855 01:44:40,880 --> 01:44:44,840 Speaker 1: can actually get seriously hurt. Yeah, I will tell you that. 1856 01:44:45,800 --> 01:44:46,920 Speaker 1: For those of you who are like, oh, have you've 1857 01:44:46,960 --> 01:44:49,840 Speaker 1: never been skiing? I saw because I grew up in 1858 01:44:50,000 --> 01:44:51,760 Speaker 1: New York, and I think it was a bigger thing 1859 01:44:51,920 --> 01:44:55,479 Speaker 1: in my youth for people from Manhattan to go skiing. 1860 01:44:55,640 --> 01:44:58,640 Speaker 1: I I don't know. I don't see it as much now. Um, 1861 01:44:59,000 --> 01:45:02,120 Speaker 1: I don't see as people around me. I don't know. 1862 01:45:02,160 --> 01:45:03,879 Speaker 1: Maybe it's because I don't ski. I don't know skiers. 1863 01:45:04,520 --> 01:45:06,600 Speaker 1: But I saw so many people that would have a 1864 01:45:06,680 --> 01:45:08,960 Speaker 1: giant cast on their leg when they come back from 1865 01:45:09,080 --> 01:45:13,400 Speaker 1: vacation from a skiing accident. So maybe cross country is 1866 01:45:13,479 --> 01:45:15,519 Speaker 1: the way to go. I'd be willing to check that out. 1867 01:45:16,240 --> 01:45:18,920 Speaker 1: I have been doing. You know, one thing that I've 1868 01:45:19,000 --> 01:45:21,679 Speaker 1: worked into my routine that people say is so good 1869 01:45:21,960 --> 01:45:24,920 Speaker 1: and I'm I kind of don't buy it yet, but 1870 01:45:25,160 --> 01:45:27,400 Speaker 1: they say it's is kettle bell swings. Do you ever 1871 01:45:27,479 --> 01:45:30,280 Speaker 1: do your kettle bell swings? They say, it's uh, from 1872 01:45:30,360 --> 01:45:34,640 Speaker 1: a from a metabolic perspective, it's almost as good as 1873 01:45:34,720 --> 01:45:37,639 Speaker 1: doing wind sprints, and with wind sprints is basically number one. 1874 01:45:37,960 --> 01:45:41,320 Speaker 1: The kettle bells is like right below jump rope. And 1875 01:45:41,360 --> 01:45:43,639 Speaker 1: I mean in terms of your metabolic. It's really good. Yeah, 1876 01:45:43,680 --> 01:45:46,080 Speaker 1: Tyrone's giving me the thumbs up on that one. It's hard, 1877 01:45:46,479 --> 01:45:48,439 Speaker 1: but I just kind of feel like, I don't know 1878 01:45:48,520 --> 01:45:50,719 Speaker 1: how could this. I gotta do it more. I gotta 1879 01:45:50,760 --> 01:45:52,640 Speaker 1: do it more, all right, So maybe I'll add some 1880 01:45:52,880 --> 01:45:56,120 Speaker 1: cross country skiing into the mix, or what about snowshoeing. 1881 01:45:57,160 --> 01:45:59,400 Speaker 1: There we go to note that some of you took 1882 01:45:59,439 --> 01:46:02,240 Speaker 1: my advice and saw a wind River and liked it 1883 01:46:02,360 --> 01:46:04,280 Speaker 1: very much. I got those notes as well. Wind River 1884 01:46:04,520 --> 01:46:07,720 Speaker 1: very good movie. Intense and disturbing, but very very good. 1885 01:46:07,800 --> 01:46:10,719 Speaker 1: I think well done for what it is. Uh, let's 1886 01:46:11,040 --> 01:46:14,479 Speaker 1: get to the latest, Stanton. Right, So if you come 1887 01:46:14,520 --> 01:46:16,599 Speaker 1: to Utah, I'll teach you how to snowboard buck.

The one 1890 01:46:24,720 --> 01:46:28,920 Speaker 1: place I've been in the United States where it felt like, wow, 1891 01:46:29,520 --> 01:46:34,800 Speaker 1: there's a whole lot of consolidated, congregated team buck with 1892 01:46:34,880 --> 01:46:37,719 Speaker 1: Salt Lake City, Utah. I was like walking around the streets, 1893 01:46:37,720 --> 01:46:40,160 Speaker 1: people like back and I was like, hey, they're like back. 1894 01:46:40,280 --> 01:46:42,400 Speaker 1: I was like, what's going on? You know? That was 1895 01:46:42,560 --> 01:46:46,360 Speaker 1: that was fun because obviously working at the blaze uh 1896 01:46:46,479 --> 01:46:50,240 Speaker 1: and with Glenn there with Glenn as the the guy. Uh. 1897 01:46:50,840 --> 01:46:54,599 Speaker 1: Salt Lake City was a very friendly venue for us. 1898 01:46:54,600 --> 01:46:56,720 Speaker 1: I remember went out there for the Man on the 1899 01:46:56,760 --> 01:46:58,400 Speaker 1: Moon event and I was in. I would just go 1900 01:46:58,520 --> 01:47:00,479 Speaker 1: to like a little random cafe or something to get 1901 01:47:00,520 --> 01:47:03,479 Speaker 1: a coffee and they're nice ladies, like hello, and I 1902 01:47:03,560 --> 01:47:05,840 Speaker 1: was like, oh, hello, nice ladies and we're having a 1903 01:47:05,920 --> 01:47:08,320 Speaker 1: good time. All right. Anyway, Yeah, I'd love to come 1904 01:47:08,320 --> 01:47:10,320 Speaker 1: out to Utah at some point, but I'm going to 1905 01:47:10,360 --> 01:47:12,200 Speaker 1: the beach in a few weeks, so that's good. I'm 1906 01:47:12,200 --> 01:47:16,040 Speaker 1: gonna be off the grid at the beach reading history 1907 01:47:16,080 --> 01:47:18,320 Speaker 1: books so that I can do my history podcast really well. 1908 01:47:18,400 --> 01:47:23,080 Speaker 1: All right, Uh, here we have Alan writing in. You 1909 01:47:23,120 --> 01:47:25,400 Speaker 1: were saying that Today's shows ratings were up, and I 1910 01:47:25,439 --> 01:47:28,680 Speaker 1: think it's because everyone loves a train wreck. Now at 1911 01:47:28,720 --> 01:47:30,560 Speaker 1: the ratings stay up, then you'll have a point. But 1912 01:47:30,720 --> 01:47:33,280 Speaker 1: right now, I think it's too early to tell. Uh. 1913 01:47:34,600 --> 01:47:37,720 Speaker 1: And I will say Tyrone yesterday made the same point. 1914 01:47:37,760 --> 01:47:40,120 Speaker 1: I think you guys are probably right at this. Right now, 1915 01:47:40,200 --> 01:47:41,760 Speaker 1: it's kind of like, oh wow, the Today's show is 1916 01:47:41,800 --> 01:47:43,680 Speaker 1: it gonna fall apart? And so people tune in to 1917 01:47:43,720 --> 01:47:46,439 Speaker 1: see if it's gonna fall apart when Laur leaves. But 1918 01:47:46,479 --> 01:47:49,400 Speaker 1: I still guy's not worth twenty five million dollars. Maybe 1919 01:47:49,439 --> 01:47:51,400 Speaker 1: he's worth five million dollars. He's not worth twenty five 1920 01:47:51,439 --> 01:47:54,920 Speaker 1: million dollars. That's just nonsense. Um.

You were talking on spices on the 1944 01:49:04,720 --> 01:49:07,559 Speaker 1: show I was listening to this morning. I recently discovered 1945 01:49:07,600 --> 01:49:13,360 Speaker 1: a new one Weaver's Dutch Country Farm dust seasoning. Okay, 1946 01:49:14,080 --> 01:49:16,679 Speaker 1: thank you, Jeffrey.

Uh, 1948 01:49:21,920 --> 01:49:26,280 Speaker 1: let's see we got here next. One Bow, Bow and Buck. 1949 01:49:26,520 --> 01:49:28,840 Speaker 1: Sounds like a sounds like a show where we get 1950 01:49:28,880 --> 01:49:32,200 Speaker 1: out there and hang out in America. Do some bass fishing? 1951 01:49:32,520 --> 01:49:34,240 Speaker 1: I did. I will tell you I did a lot 1952 01:49:34,280 --> 01:49:37,280 Speaker 1: of bass fishing growing up. My dad used to take 1953 01:49:37,600 --> 01:49:40,360 Speaker 1: me and my brothers and we would go out and 1954 01:49:41,160 --> 01:49:44,360 Speaker 1: just hit little ponds all around upstate New York and 1955 01:49:44,520 --> 01:49:47,040 Speaker 1: bass was like that was the exciting fish. Usually it 1956 01:49:47,280 --> 01:49:51,400 Speaker 1: was uh, perch and bluegill and you know, a little 1957 01:49:51,840 --> 01:49:53,960 Speaker 1: and a little kind of junk fish. But they're fun too. 1958 01:49:53,960 --> 01:49:55,360 Speaker 1: When you're a little kid, man, you get it. You 1959 01:49:55,400 --> 01:49:58,360 Speaker 1: get like a a quarter pound perch on that on 1960 01:49:58,439 --> 01:50:01,040 Speaker 1: your little rod, and you're like, oh man, it's amazing. 1961 01:50:01,160 --> 01:50:03,120 Speaker 1: You know you're fighting that thing. I'm talking like when 1962 01:50:03,120 --> 01:50:05,439 Speaker 1: you're seven eight years old. I could post some photos 1963 01:50:05,479 --> 01:50:07,599 Speaker 1: of this. We still have photos of us all going 1964 01:50:07,680 --> 01:50:10,320 Speaker 1: fishing with these these tiny little fish. But occasion my 1965 01:50:10,400 --> 01:50:12,479 Speaker 1: dad would pull up like a four or five pound, 1966 01:50:13,120 --> 01:50:15,960 Speaker 1: you know, small mouth bass or something, and that was 1967 01:50:16,040 --> 01:50:17,920 Speaker 1: like a monster. I was like, is it gonna eat me? 1968 01:50:18,240 --> 01:50:20,080 Speaker 1: It was like so big to me, because you know, 1969 01:50:20,280 --> 01:50:23,640 Speaker 1: that's yeah, is the opposite effect of what happened when 1970 01:50:23,680 --> 01:50:27,040 Speaker 1: I went as alligator not hunting, but alligator sit seeing 1971 01:50:27,120 --> 01:50:29,400 Speaker 1: with Molly, and I was like, that's the that's the alligator. 1972 01:50:29,479 --> 01:50:31,840 Speaker 1: I I feel like I could pick it up and 1973 01:50:31,880 --> 01:50:33,400 Speaker 1: put it in a put it in my bathtub at 1974 01:50:33,439 --> 01:50:34,800 Speaker 1: home and it would have plenty of room. I was 1975 01:50:34,880 --> 01:50:40,000 Speaker 1: expecting something a little more dinosaur like. Anyway, Bow, Bow, 1976 01:50:40,080 --> 01:50:43,040 Speaker 1: and Buck pardon me for the digression. Bow, I'm with you, Buck. 1977 01:50:43,120 --> 01:50:46,000 Speaker 1: I never like laur or Kuric either, for that matter. 1978 01:50:46,360 --> 01:50:49,519 Speaker 1: They're both disingenuous phonies. And the reason I haven't watched 1979 01:50:49,600 --> 01:50:52,760 Speaker 1: any so called morning news program in years. Thanks for 1980 01:50:52,880 --> 01:50:56,200 Speaker 1: keeping it real Shields high well bow. Clearly you are correct, 1981 01:50:56,680 --> 01:51:01,560 Speaker 1: and clearly they are disingenuous phonies, and I I have 1982 01:51:01,680 --> 01:51:04,360 Speaker 1: it on good authority not nice as well, which I 1983 01:51:04,439 --> 01:51:08,919 Speaker 1: always think is such a yeah, such a an important 1984 01:51:08,960 --> 01:51:12,240 Speaker 1: indicator of everything. Is somebody really nice or not a 1985 01:51:12,320 --> 01:51:14,920 Speaker 1: lot of people say that there are folks in media 1986 01:51:15,000 --> 01:51:16,720 Speaker 1: they dealt with or nice, But you got to really 1987 01:51:16,760 --> 01:51:18,479 Speaker 1: spend time around them, you know, can't just be all 1988 01:51:18,520 --> 01:51:21,200 Speaker 1: I met them once in the green room for two seconds. Uh. 1989 01:51:21,360 --> 01:51:23,880 Speaker 1: You know, there's one day maybe I'll tell you. I 1990 01:51:23,920 --> 01:51:27,760 Speaker 1: wouldn't tell you who's mean in media necessarily, though maybe 1991 01:51:27,760 --> 01:51:29,240 Speaker 1: I would, but I would definitely tell you who's like 1992 01:51:29,439 --> 01:51:32,719 Speaker 1: really really nice, like a truly there's some really truly 1993 01:51:32,800 --> 01:51:37,880 Speaker 1: decent people in the world of media. So maybe one day, 1994 01:51:38,000 --> 01:51:39,639 Speaker 1: maybe it's like a little Christmas thing.
