1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of The Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:09,120 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome back in our number two Monday 3 00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:11,640 Speaker 1: edition of the program. I am Clay Travis, he is 4 00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:14,960 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton. This is the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show. 5 00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:18,479 Speaker 1: You missed the first hour. We talked a lot about 6 00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:25,119 Speaker 1: the COVID vaccine battles and the ridiculousness of the border. 7 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:28,240 Speaker 1: We were just talking about in terms of how you 8 00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:32,599 Speaker 1: cannot go into Canada because of COVID and it'll be 9 00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:37,320 Speaker 1: policed aggressively, But meanwhile on the southern border it's wide open. 10 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,600 Speaker 1: People are coming across with COVID all the time, which 11 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:43,720 Speaker 1: flies directly in the face of arguing that COVID is 12 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 1: a major issue. And as you look around the country, 13 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:53,360 Speaker 1: one of the continuing biggest issues outside of the border 14 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 1: and outside of COVID is the massive increase of crime, 15 00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 1: which many of you, no matter what part of the 16 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 1: country you live in, are experiencing and seeing on a 17 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 1: level that frankly, we have not seen an over a 18 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:13,039 Speaker 1: generation in American life. The murder rate is up unlike 19 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:19,960 Speaker 1: ever before, and all of it is continuing to spiral. 20 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 1: And the fact of the matter is buck Sexton. A 21 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,800 Speaker 1: lot of the people who would be traditional allies of 22 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: the Democratic Party are completely repudiating and rejecting the demonization 23 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,680 Speaker 1: of police which has become such a massive part of 24 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:41,080 Speaker 1: the overall Democratic brand. And it's really wild to see 25 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 1: when you actually look at the data of what's going on. Well, 26 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,039 Speaker 1: there's data that shows what people want, and then there's 27 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: also people in law enforcement that are speaking out and 28 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 1: saying that that enough is enough, and that there is 29 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 1: There has been a sea change in the way that 30 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 1: law enforcement is host to be interacting with not just 31 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 1: the general community, but suspects people who are breaking laws. 32 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 1: This is a result, as we all know, of the 33 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 1: anti comp BLM narrative that went into effect thirteen months 34 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 1: ago after the killing of George Floyd BLM two point zero. 35 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:21,080 Speaker 1: Here is the police chief in DC who's making an 36 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: argument about coddling violent criminals. But I'm gonna tell you 37 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 1: the truth. The real issue is we have a vicious 38 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 1: cycle of bad actors who do things no accountability and 39 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 1: they end up back in community. And the police officers 40 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: not guarantee you when we lock up whoever did this, 41 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 1: there will be no stranger to us. I promise you that, 42 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 1: but it's been happening communities all across our city, and 43 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 1: I'm saying to you, enough is enough. I've been a 44 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: police officer in this city for over thirty years. I've 45 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 1: been born and raised right here in this started my 46 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,920 Speaker 1: patrol career right here in this district. And the way 47 00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 1: that we're going and the things that we're trying to do. 48 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 1: We want to help you, well, yes we should, but 49 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 1: you cannot coddle voling criminals. You cannot. You cannot treat 50 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:10,359 Speaker 1: violent criminals who are out here making communities hunsafe for you, 51 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,079 Speaker 1: for your loved ones, for me, for my loved ones. 52 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 1: I mean Clay, it's does he listen to the Clay 53 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 1: and Buck Show because we could, we could just make 54 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 1: him the featured guests on completely agree with them. And 55 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: you know, that's one thing I'll say about local law 56 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,800 Speaker 1: enforcement that gets overlooked. The Libs love the FBI because 57 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: they view the FBI now as the praetorian guard that 58 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:34,279 Speaker 1: they can send after the white nationalist January sixth insurrections. 59 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 1: So you don't hear a lot of FBI criticism. They 60 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 1: also spied on Trump. That's a whole other thing. Local 61 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: law enforcement, Clay. It comes from the community. They police. 62 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: They're trying to keep their cities, their towns, their neighborhoods safe. 63 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 1: And whenever you talk to at the actual police level, 64 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 1: whether we're discussing New York, LA, Baltimore, Chicago, they're appalled 65 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 1: by the narrative about about at the national level that 66 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: Democrats completely pandered too. And the fact that you're looking 67 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 1: at another year here. We had a huge spike nationwide 68 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 1: and murders and cities last year, and we're looking to 69 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: have another record level of murders nationwide and shootings this year, 70 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 1: and they're still talking about police reform. Democrats think that 71 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: that's Oh, if only the cops were a little more polite, 72 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: so many other people that aren't cops would stop shooting 73 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 1: each other. This is madness, it is. And to your point, 74 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,919 Speaker 1: I know because I hear from some of these guys 75 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 1: on a regular basis. There are right now police officers 76 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 1: in all fifty states listening to our show nodding along 77 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,480 Speaker 1: because they see it on the ground day in and 78 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 1: day out. How would it feel if you busted your 79 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,839 Speaker 1: ass as a police officer to catch and arrest someone 80 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,040 Speaker 1: who was a clear and present danger to your community. 81 00:04:54,640 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 1: And then an idiot judge or an idiot DA puts 82 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 1: them right back on the street, and next thing you know, 83 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:08,600 Speaker 1: they've committed another crime, they have another victim. It's infuriating 84 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 1: to these guys because you're telling them the job that 85 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: they're doing, we're not going to support your efforts to 86 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:19,279 Speaker 1: make your community safer. And these guys see it all 87 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: day long, every day, and then they hear it from 88 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: the community that surrounds them, and then they turn on 89 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,159 Speaker 1: the news or they pick up a newspaper, and they 90 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: are the most hated people America. I mean, I still 91 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 1: remember they canceled the television show Cops. Yep, it was. 92 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: It was because it was too positive in its reflection 93 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 1: of police office, shameful pandering to the anti cop narrative 94 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,839 Speaker 1: that happened last year. It was. It was awful, and 95 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 1: there were some Republicans who went along with it. Oh yeah, 96 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:51,280 Speaker 1: some people aren't gonna want to hear this, But there 97 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: were some people in the Trump White House who also 98 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 1: went along with it. Not Trump himself, but there were 99 00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 1: people around him who were, oh yeah, let's push that 100 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 1: a police reform bill. Just absolutely making the whole situation worse. 101 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 1: But let's get down to the actual data that we 102 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 1: can use on this. Okay, So murders are up, shootings 103 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,279 Speaker 1: are up. We all know that, and it's in every 104 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: major city across the country pretty much. I'm sure we 105 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 1: could find a couple of outliers, but pretty much. And 106 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 1: I remember, we really should be looking at where we 107 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: are now versus where we are pre pandemic. I mean 108 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:24,920 Speaker 1: to get a sense of what the numbers actually looked 109 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 1: like then. But by a nine to one margin. This 110 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:34,919 Speaker 1: was a USA Today, Suffolk University Detroit Free Press poll 111 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,479 Speaker 1: that just came out over the weekend. Clay nine to 112 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 1: one the residence of Detroit say they would feel safer 113 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: with more cops on the street. Nine to one. Okay, 114 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 1: you look at numbers. You can't get nine to one 115 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: to agree on a whole lot in this country. And 116 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 1: it's worth noting that Detroit, which has unfortunately year and 117 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 1: a year out a pretty high per capita homicide rate, 118 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,920 Speaker 1: is a city that has also experienced bad numbers in 119 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 1: that regard during COVID. It's about eighty percent African American, 120 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 1: so ninety percent of a city overall, which happens to 121 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: be an eighty percent African American majority city are saying 122 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 1: more cops would make us feel safer. You know who 123 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 1: pushes BLM. Cowards who make millions of dollars a year 124 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 1: to live in gated communities or on the Upper West 125 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: Side of Manhattan or wherever. Who work at CNN. They 126 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 1: love BLM narratives. I'm reading from the Wall Street Journal 127 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 1: over the weekend. I believe this article went up building 128 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: on what we were just talking about. Again, this is 129 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: the actual data. In seventy cities and countings accounties that 130 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 1: account for a fifth of the US population, the murder 131 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: rate rose there by thirty five percent. That's a monster number, 132 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 1: all right, but it's gonna blow your mind this data here. 133 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 1: The largest previous increase on record from one year to 134 00:07:56,640 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: the next was thirteen percent in nineteen sixty eight. Think 135 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 1: about that for a minute. We have never seen the 136 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: murder rate skyrocket like it did in twenty twenty and oh, 137 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 1: by the way, it's continued to grow in many places. 138 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:16,559 Speaker 1: In twenty twenty one, a thirty five percent increase, more 139 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: by nearly triple than the largest previous increase on record, 140 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 1: which was thirteen percent in nineteen sixty eight. I don't 141 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,559 Speaker 1: know how you can hear that and in any way 142 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:35,720 Speaker 1: support anything other than funding more police we need. I think, 143 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: what was the back of the day, we need like 144 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 1: one hundred thousand more cops. Wasn't that the number back 145 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 1: in the nineties that they put on the streets? And it, 146 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: not surprisingly, crime decreased almost immediately because everybody got sick 147 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 1: of it, and we reached a point as a society 148 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 1: where there you get shouted down for the anti cop garbage, 149 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 1: you know, early nineties. You know, God blessed them here 150 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,080 Speaker 1: in New York City. A lot of a lot of 151 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 1: black pastors spoke out in the early nineties in support 152 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: of the Giuliani I'm sorry, not the early nineties, you know, 153 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: but when Juliana took over mid nineties, I can't remember 154 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,599 Speaker 1: the exact year right now, but took in support of 155 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 1: the Giuliani crime policies when he was mayor. That bottom line, 156 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 1: they actually were saying, well and Bloomberg, And then of 157 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,560 Speaker 1: a by the time Bloomberg came along, it was kind 158 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 1: of like, do we want a safe, clean city in 159 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: New York or do we want something else? You know 160 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 1: what I mean? Do we want clean, safe, streets or 161 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 1: do we want so, Yeah, the miracle had already happened 162 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 1: in a sense, but there were leaders in the black 163 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 1: community who spoke out in defense of what we all 164 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: know everybody wants, which is safer, better streets for all 165 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 1: of us and you know, communities for all of us 166 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 1: to be living in. And it's just so frustrating, because Clay, 167 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 1: some things are complicated. We could open up the lines 168 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 1: here and have really in depth, multi tier discussions about 169 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:52,080 Speaker 1: decisions made when it comes to the war on terror, 170 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 1: you know, Afghanistan Iraq war, how do we deal with 171 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 1: the illegal immigrant community in this country that's been here 172 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:02,319 Speaker 1: for twenty years. There are things that can be really nuanced, 173 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 1: and there's a lot of when you have an open 174 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 1: border be by choice, and when you have an anti 175 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 1: police narrative by choice and have a disaster at the 176 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 1: border and a disaster with crime increases. This is right 177 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,200 Speaker 1: at the feet of the Democrat Party. These are decisions 178 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 1: that they made and we are suffering the obvious consequences 179 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,440 Speaker 1: of them. And everyone needs to know that because the 180 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 1: only corrective here is for the Democrats to suffer, suffer 181 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 1: when it comes to their power as a result and 182 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,439 Speaker 1: let's just go back into that number again. For the 183 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 1: increase thirty five percent murder, eight largest since nineteen sixty 184 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 1: eight when it went up thirteen percent in a year 185 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 1: over year basis, who are the people that are bearing 186 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 1: the brunt of the massive increase in murder. If BLM 187 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 1: is true, then black lives are being sacrificed at the 188 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:56,319 Speaker 1: altar of defund the police, because over half of all 189 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,680 Speaker 1: murder victims in the United States are black, even though 190 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:02,960 Speaker 1: black people represent only around twelve and a half percent 191 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:07,320 Speaker 1: of the overall population. So the unfortunate irony here is 192 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: the people who bear the brunt of the increase in 193 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 1: crime at the absolute worst level of crime you can have, 194 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 1: which is murder, are black. And that is the group 195 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 1: overwhelmingly in Detroit that is saying we need more cops 196 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 1: on our street to protect us. And that is not 197 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 1: a unique to Detroit perspective. Vast majorities of Americans, White, Black, 198 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: Asian and Hispanic all over this country want more, not 199 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 1: less police. We're gonna come back into more on this 200 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 1: discussion of law enforcement, but also the fixation on the 201 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:45,440 Speaker 1: January six commission. Clay and I have some theories about 202 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:49,559 Speaker 1: why this is still such an important story for the Democrats. 203 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 1: I mean, it feels like CNN is the COVID January 204 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:55,840 Speaker 1: sixth channel will explain, you know, two different that's pretty 205 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:57,439 Speaker 1: much all they got. That's all, that's all they want 206 00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 1: to talk about, which is also why the ratings are, 207 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 1: you know, in the toilet, which is where they should 208 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 1: be anyway. But we'll come back to that in a minute. 209 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 1: You know, it's obvious that inflation is rising, and I 210 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 1: just spoke to a brilliant financial mind last night at 211 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 1: dinner with a friend of mine who said, inflation's gonna 212 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 1: get a whole lot worse. That's for sure, it's gonna 213 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 1: get He told me. He thinks we're gonna head to 214 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 1: double digits by the end of Biden's first term. Inflation, 215 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 1: which is really bad, really bad stuff, folks. Okay, so 216 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 1: what can you do to protect your savings and your 217 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 1: retirement accounts. One way to do it is to diversify 218 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 1: right now by buying real gold and silver from the 219 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 1: Oxford Gold Group, not gold and silver stocks, actual gold 220 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,839 Speaker 1: and silver you can hold in your hands. I buy 221 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 1: my gold and silver from the Oxford Gold Group. These 222 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 1: are people I trust. I've spoken to the CEO many 223 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:42,319 Speaker 1: times myself. I've had conversations with him about long term 224 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 1: strategy of precious metals and why it's important to take 225 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,839 Speaker 1: these actions. Now, give Oxford Gold to call eight three 226 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 1: three four zero four Gold. They'll answer all your questions 227 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 1: and they'll send you their investment guide. Whether you're looking 228 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:56,439 Speaker 1: to have real gold and silver just sent to you 229 00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 1: right at home discreetly, or have real gold then silver 230 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 1: in your eye rare four to one k. The Oxford 231 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 1: Gold Group can help. Called the Oxford Gold Group at 232 00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: a three three four zero four gold that's a three 233 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 1: three four zero four g o l D. Before the 234 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:24,520 Speaker 1: dollars in your pocket become less valuable. They're not interested 235 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 1: in allowing the truth to be presented to the American people. 236 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:34,679 Speaker 1: The House Republicans have become the cover of Caucus. Certainly 237 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: Liz Cheney has taken a different approach. She's not putting 238 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 1: forth the big lie. She's going to defend the rule 239 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 1: of law. That's what the Democratic members of the Select 240 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 1: Committee are going to do. And we'll see what happens 241 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,720 Speaker 1: over the next few days in terms of Pelosi decides 242 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,680 Speaker 1: to make any additional appointments. Welcome back to the Clay 243 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 1: and Buck show. I'm Buck, he's Clay. And that was 244 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:07,319 Speaker 1: Representative Jeffreys praising Republican Republican Liz Cheney and Republican of 245 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 1: course Adam kinzingerre also coming in for a lot of 246 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:13,719 Speaker 1: praise from Democrats these days for being those those Republicans 247 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:16,080 Speaker 1: who get a pat on the head from the Democrats 248 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 1: for helping go along with this commission. That to me, 249 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 1: it couldn't be any more obvious Clay the Biden administration, 250 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 1: especially given this COVID moment of panic that they're going 251 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 1: through right now in mid July, after the mass vaccination 252 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 1: campaign for many, many months, they have no victory to celebrate. 253 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 1: There's nothing they can point to and say, oh, look 254 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 1: what an amazing job we've done. I mean, yeah, more 255 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 1: people are vaccinated, COVID has gotten but that was already 256 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 1: in process of happening when they took over. It's not 257 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 1: as good as they said it would be. So what 258 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 1: do they want to do? They want to have Pelosi 259 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 1: having this handpick January six Insurrection commission to try to 260 00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 1: distract folks. That's what's going on. Well, I think there's 261 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 1: a subtle desperation and we haven't talked about this, but 262 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 1: you and I were texting with the show crew. The 263 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 1: overall goodwill optimism has declined twenty percent in this country 264 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 1: over the past couple of months. Why is that, I 265 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: think because the Biden administration came in and what was 266 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 1: their number one thing. They told all of us buck, 267 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 1: We're gonna fix COVID, even if it wasn't true, and 268 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 1: even if the vaccine was already rolling out under Trump 269 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 1: and everything else. Their idea was, hey, by July fourth, 270 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 1: if you listen to us everything, I'll be fine. And 271 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 1: by the way, we basically hit Joe Biden's goal of 272 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 1: seventy percent of adults eighteen and up to get at 273 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 1: least one shot of COVID. I don't know what percentage, 274 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 1: sixty eight percent or whatever we are at eighteen and ups. 275 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 1: And when you actually look at that, what I think 276 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 1: the Democrats are desperate as they are looking at all 277 00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 1: the data is they're saying, oh my god, we are 278 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:06,240 Speaker 1: rolling wing back potentially two more COVID related craziness. And 279 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 1: that's all they have to rely on. The borders, a mess, murders, 280 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 1: or skyrocketing inflation, as you said, going to break starting 281 00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 1: to rise as well. This infrastructure deal is crap, as 282 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 1: anyone with a functional brain can see the budget's gonna 283 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 1: blow out and make inflation worse. Joe Biden is Jimmy 284 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 1: Carter two point zero, and COVID is his sort of 285 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 1: it's the weight that's going to continue to pull him 286 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 1: down because his number one goal, in addition to the 287 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 1: bipartisan joke, right, I'm gonna make America bipartisan again and 288 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: people are gonna get along, and I'm gonna restore the 289 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 1: soul of the nation or whatever he tried to sell 290 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 1: us on. All of that is not true. And his 291 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 1: one big thing was I'm gonna fix COVID. I'm gonna 292 00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 1: listen to the experts and everything else, and guess what 293 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 1: we're headed for. I think another spike in the fall. 294 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 1: COVID's here to stay. Biden didn't do anything to get 295 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:05,119 Speaker 1: rid of it, and yet the media wants you to 296 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:09,680 Speaker 1: think that somehow you can't see what's going on and 297 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:12,359 Speaker 1: come to your own conclusions. It's all so much better 298 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:15,680 Speaker 1: because Joe Biden is in charge. This was always a 299 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,159 Speaker 1: laughable proposition. But there's another proposition the Clay and I 300 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 1: want to discuss with you, and that is if you're 301 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 1: really woke. Shouldn't you be willing to make sacrifices if 302 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 1: you really believe in systemic racism, if you really believe 303 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 1: b LM not just something you put on, you know, 304 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 1: your dating profile or on your Instagram page, but you 305 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:45,240 Speaker 1: really care. Shouldn't you talk the talk and walk the walk. 306 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:47,679 Speaker 1: Shouldn't you be able to actually take some steps here 307 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 1: to show your support for a left wing causes against 308 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 1: systemic racism. Some flyers hand it out in Dallas and 309 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:56,400 Speaker 1: we got another Dallas story for you to clay. I'm 310 00:17:56,400 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 1: excited to set this one up for everybody. Double Dallas insanity. 311 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 1: If you're a Texan, get ready grab your hats. This 312 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:07,679 Speaker 1: is this is, as they like to say in Texas. 313 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:11,400 Speaker 1: These two stories all hat, no cattle. In the meantime, 314 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 1: how much equity do you have in your home? Fifty 315 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 1: thousand dollars, one hundred thousand, maybe more. Cybercrime experts are 316 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,920 Speaker 1: alerting homeowners the more equity you have in your house, 317 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,359 Speaker 1: the greater the chance foreign and domestic criminals will come 318 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 1: after your home.

They search for hundreds of 323 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:41,199 Speaker 1: public databases for high equity homes. Next, they pull your 324 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:44,880 Speaker 1: online title, forge your signature, state you sold your home, 325 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:47,720 Speaker 1: and take out loans using your equity. You're not covered 326 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:51,000 Speaker 1: by insurance, your bank or common identity theft programs.

Welcome back to the Clay Travis and 337 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:36,160 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show. I'm Buck and with me is play 338 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:40,680 Speaker 1: and we gotta ask a question. It's one you should 339 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:45,400 Speaker 1: probably ask your smug liberal neighbor or colleague at work, 340 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 1: although this will probably lead to a fight. If you 341 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:53,680 Speaker 1: really care about social justice, if you really care about 342 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: tackling institutional racism, is it enough, lib? Whoever this lib 343 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,879 Speaker 1: may be. Is it enough to merely put a black 344 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 1: square on your Instagram for BLM, or to announce your 345 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:10,199 Speaker 1: pronouns when nobody's asking, Nobody's like, I'm curious what your 346 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 1: pronouns are. You just announce them to show everybody who 347 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 1: you are. Is it enough, though, to tackle injustice in 348 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: society and specifically systemic racism, just to say the right things? 349 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 1: Don't actions matter more than words? I feel like we 350 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 1: all know that as kids, Clay, Right, I mean, if 351 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 1: you're really dedicated to something, you've got to actually do 352 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:36,639 Speaker 1: something about it. Well, there's a group in Dallas now, 353 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 1: I will say, Clay and I have been going back 354 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 1: and forth on you know, this is a it's a 355 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 1: new social justice organization. It's called Dallas Justice. I went 356 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 1: to their website. It seems like this is because we 357 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:49,959 Speaker 1: thought maybe this was parody initially, Right, Clay, I mean 358 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:54,879 Speaker 1: the Internet in general, there is so much absurdity that 359 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 1: we've passed the point of satire, particularly as it comes 360 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 1: to issues of race. We've talked about Theocratic Party's entire 361 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:05,919 Speaker 1: baseline argument now is everything is racist. And so when 362 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 1: I saw this circulating on social media, my thought was, 363 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:14,600 Speaker 1: is this possibly real? Because it's so absurdly ridiculous, But 364 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,639 Speaker 1: it does appear to be real. And the fact that 365 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:20,119 Speaker 1: we've reached the point where we can't even tell what's 366 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 1: real and not, I think also helps to make the 367 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,640 Speaker 1: point here. But what are they demanding? Oh, it's amazing. 368 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 1: So Dallas Justice Now is the organization, and they have 369 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 1: passed this out. This made the way on social media, 370 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:34,919 Speaker 1: and again it all looks it all looks legit and real. 371 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:36,440 Speaker 1: And I'll just say it right now, if this is 372 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 1: some kind of effort at proving what a farce some 373 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,960 Speaker 1: of these social justice efforts are, it still makes It 374 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 1: still makes the point because I think this is great. 375 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:50,879 Speaker 1: I think that this is what should happen. If you 376 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:55,680 Speaker 1: are a wealthy white lib you should sign on for 377 00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 1: this right now. You should have the courage of your convictions. 378 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 1: And actually, here's what they say. It's called the College Pledge. 379 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 1: We are writing to inform you. I won't use the 380 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 1: name but they actually they drop this off for a person. 381 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 1: We are writing to inform you that we understand you 382 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:14,119 Speaker 1: are white and live within the Highland Park Independent School District. 383 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:16,679 Speaker 1: This is in the Dallas area, and thus benefit from 384 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 1: a normous, enormous privilege taken to the expense of communities 385 00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 1: of color. You live in the whitest and wealthiest neighborhood 386 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 1: in Dallas. Whether you know it or not, you earned 387 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:31,080 Speaker 1: or inherited your money through oppressing people of color. However, 388 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 1: it is also our understanding that you are a Democrat 389 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:37,320 Speaker 1: and a supporter of the Black Lives Matter movement, which 390 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: makes you one of our white allies and puts you 391 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 1: in a position to help correct these cruel injustices. We 392 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 1: need you to step up and back up your words 393 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,920 Speaker 1: with action and truly sacrifice to make our segregated city 394 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 1: more just. And here's the ask, Clay. Here we go. 395 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,440 Speaker 1: We are asking you to pledge that your children will 396 00:22:55,520 --> 00:23:01,439 Speaker 1: not apply or attend any Ivy League school or US 397 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:06,640 Speaker 1: News and World Report Top fifty school. And they say 398 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:10,200 Speaker 1: it's because they obviously want to make sure that white 399 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 1: privileged families don't continue to have this privilege. Your quote 400 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 1: taking spaces away from students of color who really need 401 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 1: the opportunities, education, and influence these schools provide. Clay, I 402 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:28,040 Speaker 1: will want. I want to ask all the sanctimonious CNN, MSNBC, 403 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:32,440 Speaker 1: watching New York Times subscribing white libs out there, is 404 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 1: this too much to ask? There are so many other 405 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 1: good schools. This is the rubber meets the road moment. 406 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 1: And this is that. For instance, why I thought the 407 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:47,160 Speaker 1: Rachel Nichols ESPN story that we talked about her response 408 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:52,160 Speaker 1: to being replaced by a black woman was, oh, that's fine, 409 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:55,879 Speaker 1: I understand that there's diversity and inclusion issues, but don't 410 00:23:56,000 --> 00:24:00,679 Speaker 1: take my thing away, right. And this is why ultimately 411 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:05,400 Speaker 1: all of the white allies out there, people who are 412 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 1: white people with the BLM signs out in their front 413 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 1: yards and you know, their share their blacking out their 414 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 1: Instagram pictures or whatever it was during that protest and 415 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 1: all of these ridiculous cosmetic theater movements on social media. 416 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 1: What you really need to do is give up your 417 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: white privilege, if you truly believe it exists, and give 418 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 1: something else to a minority to replace you, right. And 419 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: what often happens is you really see how much of 420 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,600 Speaker 1: now this is such a ridiculous request. But it's the 421 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 1: kind of thing that if you truly believed America was 422 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 1: a systemic racist place, you have to give up your 423 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 1: own privilege, and moreover, your kids have to give up 424 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:58,360 Speaker 1: their own privilege. And let me just defend Highland Park 425 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:00,399 Speaker 1: for a minute. Here, by the way, great part of 426 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:04,879 Speaker 1: Dallas been there, have friends there, many people, And this 427 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:08,479 Speaker 1: is what's lost on the BLM community and people who 428 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:10,760 Speaker 1: are making arguments such as the one you just read. 429 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 1: A huge percentage of people that live in Highland Park 430 00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 1: are there because they busted their asses to get there, 431 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 1: not because they inherited some massive amount of wealth. Right. 432 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 1: I don't know clad I feel. I feel all these 433 00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:29,680 Speaker 1: microaggressions piling up. I feel the white privilege exuding right now. 434 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:33,159 Speaker 1: I say about hard work and capitalism and the and 435 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:37,440 Speaker 1: the American dream head getting good test scores. How dare you, sir? 436 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 1: I mean, can I can I just add it? Because 437 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:40,959 Speaker 1: first of all, I mean when you said that it's 438 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 1: it's a ridiculous request. I mean I agree with you 439 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 1: insofar as the whole thing is absurd. I also don't 440 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:48,200 Speaker 1: believe in systemic racism the way that that BLM talks 441 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:51,399 Speaker 1: about it and all the rest. But you do have 442 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:54,680 Speaker 1: affirmative action in schools. That's a very very powerful tool 443 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 1: at these elite universities. In particular, it is making its 444 00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 1: way through the Supreme Court right now. You may in 445 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,879 Speaker 1: fact have the because remember it was what was a 446 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 1: gruttervy Bollinger in twenty five years, we won't need this. 447 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 1: We're about fifteen years since that decision and case went 448 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,880 Speaker 1: through I believe in like two thousand and three ish 449 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 1: was if I remember the year, right, I was in 450 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 1: law school when that's when that affirmative action case was decided. 451 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 1: And now we've got a brand new Supreme Court and 452 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:23,640 Speaker 1: that in that case, as you well point out, although 453 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:25,800 Speaker 1: it isn't discussed much, they say in twenty to twenty 454 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 1: five years, it won't be necessary. A firm of action 455 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,440 Speaker 1: is unconstitutional. But you know, we'll see if they actually 456 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,359 Speaker 1: have the courage to to say in college admissions that 457 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 1: it is. And anybody who doesn't understand how it's so 458 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 1: obviously unconstitutional should speak to the Asian Americans who are 459 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,719 Speaker 1: applying to Harvard, who are saying, well, what where's our 460 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,440 Speaker 1: what's our privilege here? Right? Anyway, that's that's all. That's 461 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 1: a real good discussion we should have at some point. 462 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 1: But the back to the college pledge from this Dallas 463 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 1: Justice organization, they wrote this, and this is why I 464 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,480 Speaker 1: love it quote. We know that this sounds like a 465 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:56,920 Speaker 1: tough commitment, as in, don't let your kid go to 466 00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,920 Speaker 1: an elite school, elite university, but it is a true 467 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:03,359 Speaker 1: It is truly disheartening to see wealthy white folks sending 468 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:07,920 Speaker 1: charitable donations, posting hashtag black Lives Matter on social media, 469 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,159 Speaker 1: and putting up yard signs as if to say that 470 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:13,720 Speaker 1: minimal effort is all they're prepared to do in the 471 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:18,320 Speaker 1: fight for racial justice. The quest for justice requires commitment 472 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:24,840 Speaker 1: from our white allies. I absolutely agree white libs, give 473 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 1: up your kids elite spots in university, otherwise you're a 474 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:30,720 Speaker 1: bunch of phonies. I love what they're doing here. I 475 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 1: think it's even funnier if they specifically targeted with these 476 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 1: letters people who had Black Lives Matter, you know, sort 477 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:42,680 Speaker 1: of signs in their yards, right, and if they targeted 478 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 1: based on donations and everything else. Because one of the 479 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:49,400 Speaker 1: things you learn and maybe these super white liberals who 480 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:53,480 Speaker 1: are uberwoke are recognizing this too. It doesn't end and 481 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 1: you can never do enough, right, That's ultimately what this 482 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 1: demand is. The demands just keep growing. It's analogous to 483 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 1: me for mascots, right, this idea that you're suddenly going 484 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 1: to change the Cleveland Indians name and people are gonna 485 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:10,200 Speaker 1: be like, oh, okay, well now we're all good. No, 486 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:13,440 Speaker 1: it's the tip of the progressive spear. They have to 487 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 1: demand more. I'm on the entire purpose. I'm also a 488 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 1: little traumatized right now by the fact that you just 489 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:23,360 Speaker 1: said that on radio, Clay, it's the Cleveland Guardians, as 490 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 1: you know, it has been, it has been adjusted accordingly. 491 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 1: It is now the cleand we're gonna have to go 492 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:31,760 Speaker 1: back and retroactively beep every time Clay brings up I 493 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:36,199 Speaker 1: dare say the Cleveland the eye word, you know. And anyway, well, 494 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:37,920 Speaker 1: we'll come back into more of this in a second 495 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:40,440 Speaker 1: with another story out of Dallas that Clay is going 496 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 1: to lead us into. You know, if you thought that, 497 00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:46,080 Speaker 1: let's fallen apart point, if you thought that that British 498 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 1: soldiers in the trenches in World War One had it 499 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 1: rough these Texas democrats from the state House who have 500 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 1: had to you know, fly to DC and oh my gosh, 501 00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 1: what they're being put through right now. It's amazing. They've 502 00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 1: gotten to love this. But you're supposed to help them. Well, Clay, 503 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what when we come back in a second. Well, 504 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 1: if it's one thing we all know for sure, it's 505 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 1: that for your health, there's nothing quite as important as 506 00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,479 Speaker 1: a powerful immune system. And with that in mind, over 507 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 1: twenty years ago, naturopathic doctor Dennis Black of Texas invented 508 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:22,160 Speaker 1: Texas Superfood. This is the original super food. I've known 509 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 1: doctor Black for years and he's hook me up with 510 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 1: Texas Superfood and I just feel like it helps my digestion, 511 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 1: my energy.

Welcome back in. 527 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 1: I am Clay Travis, he is Buck Sexton. We are 528 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 1: the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show. The city of 529 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:38,960 Speaker 1: Dallas has lost its mind. First up, you have the 530 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 1: Progressive Coalition demanding that BLM white supporters not send their 531 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 1: kids to top fifty institutions. Meanwhile, you may well recall 532 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: that we had and still have the Texas Democrats who 533 00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:59,440 Speaker 1: have felt fled the state to avoid any sort of 534 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 1: change to the overall voting bills in the state of Texas. 535 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:10,680 Speaker 1: And they are they are struggling. They are mightily, mightily 536 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:17,200 Speaker 1: struggling in their relatively high end Dallas. Uh, They've departed 537 00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 1: Dallas and they are now in their high end Washington, 538 00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:22,960 Speaker 1: DC hotels. And I swear to God this is true. 539 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:27,720 Speaker 1: This is not made up. The Dallas Democratic Party is 540 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:34,520 Speaker 1: requesting that their constituents send care packages to them. So 541 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:36,480 Speaker 1: in case you're listening out there, and by the way, 542 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:38,520 Speaker 1: I think we could put some really funny things in 543 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:46,840 Speaker 1: these care packages. Yeah, before five o'clock on Tuesday, they 544 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 1: are requesting doctor pepper. This is real, salsa, hard candy, hairspray, 545 00:31:54,920 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 1: travel toiletries, hand sanitizers, sewing kits, first aid, and or 546 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 1: money to pay for shipping. Now, I went to college 547 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 1: in Washington, DC. You lived there for a while, Buck, 548 00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 1: I don't remember it being that hard in the city 549 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 1: to buy whatever you needed in order to get on 550 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,160 Speaker 1: with your day to day exists. I'm pretty sure from 551 00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 1: my six years or so of living in Washington, DC 552 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 1: that they still because I know when I lived there 553 00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 1: you could. You can still buy hairspray and yes, even salsa. 554 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 1: In fact, there's some thoughts of PC where they make 555 00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:35,880 Speaker 1: very good homematee salsa. This is I mean, if you've 556 00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 1: got kids right now, it's summer camp season. So we 557 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:42,160 Speaker 1: had kids, two of ours were at an overnight week 558 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:45,480 Speaker 1: long camp, and so we packed a care package for 559 00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:47,720 Speaker 1: them and they think it's fun to hear from you know, 560 00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:49,800 Speaker 1: mom and dad and get some candy to be able 561 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 1: to share around. Whoever came up with this idea, did 562 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:57,000 Speaker 1: the Dallas Democratic Party fire them? I mean, it's so 563 00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:00,640 Speaker 1: insanely tone deaf. First of all, well, shouldn't we be 564 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:02,840 Speaker 1: sending them what is it to michelob light or something 565 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 1: they had on the close enough? I mean, it's one 566 00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 1: thing when you know, you send care packages to troops 567 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 1: down range in Kandaharror, Yes, who you know could use 568 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 1: some some decent quality coffee and some you know other 569 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 1: you know, whatever it is you want to send them 570 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:22,959 Speaker 1: some goodies because they around on the front line. Taste 571 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,920 Speaker 1: of home. They actually away from home, they don't have 572 00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 1: all that stuff. It turns out that Washington, d C. 573 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 1: Even for the Texans listening right now, they may think, 574 00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, DC, I would never want to go there. True, however, 575 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 1: they also have Walmart, and they have stores and even 576 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:48,600 Speaker 1: Amazon every corner, even Amazon, if you're not happy with 577 00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 1: your local retail establishments. It's just such a tone deaf 578 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:57,880 Speaker 1: thing to send out, particularly because there are so many 579 00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:01,440 Speaker 1: people that are still struggling to a large extent because 580 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 1: of democratic lockdowns that led to millions of lost jobs, 581 00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:10,360 Speaker 1: and these guys, voluntarily on the taxpayer dime, have bolted 582 00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:13,320 Speaker 1: and they are staying in the luxury hotel in Washington, 583 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,319 Speaker 1: d C. I also think this is and I believe 584 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:17,719 Speaker 1: this in the very beginning, this whole thing from a 585 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:21,719 Speaker 1: pr perspective for the messaging, the narrative the Democrats are 586 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 1: going for here, this is backfiring. I mean, everyone can see, 587 00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 1: you know, the sad little salad selfies of look at 588 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 1: what I'm having to put up with. Oh gosh, you know, 589 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,680 Speaker 1: like you know, these guys are taking photos of themselves. 590 00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:37,200 Speaker 1: We're standing here for voting rights and all this stuff. 591 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:39,839 Speaker 1: You know. Governor Abbott's just like, can you guys stop 592 00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 1: being a bunch of clowns come back into your jobs please. 593 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:44,960 Speaker 1: I mean, who ends up looking like the adults in 594 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:48,200 Speaker 1: this process who are serious about governance, Clay, and who 595 00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:53,080 Speaker 1: look like the little activist cry babies who refused to 596 00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:54,800 Speaker 1: get when they can't get their way, refused to do 597 00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 1: their jobs, and are actually the ones blocking democracy, the 598 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:01,000 Speaker 1: democratic process of the state of Texas and all of this. 599 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:03,320 Speaker 1: So we can see what's really happening here. So in 600 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 1: a sense. I'm I'm pleased with the fact that there's 601 00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 1: so tone deaf that everyone can see what a stupid 602 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:12,520 Speaker 1: stunt this is. But we've also got to make sure 603 00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 1: those Texas bills get passed. You know, we can't lose 604 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:19,400 Speaker 1: sight of the voting rights issues, the voting integrity issues 605 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:22,280 Speaker 1: that are at stake. Yeah, and we should mention Governor 606 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:26,160 Speaker 1: Greg Abbott literally as we're talking about this, tweeted, I 607 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:30,480 Speaker 1: will keep calling special sessions until we address every emergency 608 00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:34,880 Speaker 1: item funding for foster care, property tax relief, bail reform. 609 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:38,960 Speaker 1: By the way, Also, the University of Texas is moving 610 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:43,080 Speaker 1: to potentially the SEC for football. I know you're not 611 00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:45,840 Speaker 1: a sports guy, but this is involved now in the 612 00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:50,760 Speaker 1: Texas legislator. Maybe the thing that brings them back from 613 00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:53,919 Speaker 1: DC is something that unites kind of the whole state 614 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:55,839 Speaker 1: of Texas, which is football. I will tell you one 615 00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:57,600 Speaker 1: fun thing about doing the show now, Clay, is that 616 00:35:57,719 --> 00:35:59,439 Speaker 1: I see I see people out there in the world. 617 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:02,160 Speaker 1: I talk to a friend this weekend and I was like, yeah, 618 00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:03,960 Speaker 1: you know, I had the Big ten commissioner on, you know, 619 00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,520 Speaker 1: real interesting. I just I just threw in Big ten 620 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:09,280 Speaker 1: blah blah a bunch of things I learned from that interview, 621 00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:11,080 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, it's like I pass for 622 00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:13,440 Speaker 1: a normal American who likes college sports. You know what 623 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:17,320 Speaker 1: I mean. I'm fully world for you, so world like 624 00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:20,480 Speaker 1: the Potawan here is listening to open wand on the sports, 625 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:22,840 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, I'm throwing the lightsaber around. 626 00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 1: We have got a lot to get into.

All that more coming 632 00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:48,879 Speaker 1: your way back. I think we should open up lines 633 00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,520 Speaker 1: to everybody.
