Speaker 1: This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. Follow Buck on Facebook,
Speaker 1: Instagram and Twitter. Team Welcome. We've got breaking news to
Speaker 1: get to and a whole bunch of stories that continue
Speaker 1: on today. Terror attack at Cobbel Airport. A suicide bomb
Speaker 1: has detonated as I speak to you now. We're still
Speaker 1: finding out the number of casualties. There are American soldiers
Speaker 1: who have at least been wounded. There are Afghan civilians
Speaker 1: who have been killed. And this is all happening at
Speaker 1: a time when the security situation is deteriorating. There are
Speaker 1: threats of more attacks like this, and time is running
Speaker 1: short for the evacuation of over a thousand US personnel
Speaker 1: plus on the COVID front. We've got mass mandates for
Speaker 1: kids in schools spreading all across the country. Delta Airlines
Speaker 1: is going to take two hundred dollars a month from
Speaker 1: employees who don't get vaccinated. And is the fighting Irish
Speaker 1: mascot of Notre Dame offensive? Does anybody really believe that
Speaker 1: we'll dive into this and more? But born from the
Speaker 1: tragedy of nine eleven, the Tunnel of the Towers Foundation
Speaker 1: carries forward a legacy of courage and heroism to mark
Speaker 1: twenty years. Tunnels to Towers is gifting America's heroes and
Speaker 1: their families with two hundred mortgage free homes. This is
Speaker 1: an incredible organization that really cares about keeping our sacred
Speaker 1: obligation to those who made the ultimate sacrifice in the
Speaker 1: War on Terror for this country. To honor the fallen,
Speaker 1: Chairman and CEO, Frank Siller, walks more than five hundred
Speaker 1: miles through six states and forty two days from the
Speaker 1: Pentagon to Shanksville, culminating at ground zero on nine eleven,
Speaker 1: Towers of Light returned to the Pentagon and shanks for memorials.
Speaker 1: In remembrance for the first time, those we lost to
Speaker 1: nine eleven related illnesses are being honored at a ceremony
Speaker 1: on September twelfth, on Veterans Day. Another first, the soldiers
Speaker 1: we lost in the War on Terror are having their
Speaker 1: names read aloud the words never forget, require action, do good,
Speaker 1: and take action Now. Donate eleven dollars a month at
Speaker 1: T two T dot org. That's t the number two
Speaker 1: T dot org. We have a suicide bombing at the
Speaker 1: airport in Afghanistan. I'm going to be following very closely
Speaker 1: and if I get updates even during this podcast. I'll
Speaker 1: tell you where we are. But this was something I
Speaker 1: talked about yesterday on the radio show, that you have
Speaker 1: what was just such a large soft target here, thousands
Speaker 1: and thousands of people who are packed together, who are
Speaker 1: in tremendous dress to begin with, because they're all jostling
Speaker 1: to get to the front of these masses of humanity
Speaker 1: to try to get inside the perimeter of Kabbal International Airport.
Speaker 1: And we knew that it was just a matter of
Speaker 1: time before a group like ISIS k or ISIS Chorussan branch,
Speaker 1: so this is the Islamic State faction in Afghanistan was
Speaker 1: going to engage in an attack like this. I am
Speaker 1: hopeful that there are no Americans KIA. There are American
Speaker 1: soldiers who, as I look at the latest reporting, have
Speaker 1: been wounded. We'll have to be updating this as we
Speaker 1: go along, but this is more evidence, as if we
Speaker 1: needed it, of what a chaotic mess this situation is
Speaker 1: and how high the risks are that we're running. At
Speaker 1: this point, the Biden administration just completely drop the football.
Speaker 1: I mean, this is unbelievable, and we've seen this for
Speaker 1: days and it continues to play out in a way
Speaker 1: where it becomes even more clear that it would be
Speaker 1: hard for them to botch this more than they have.
Speaker 1: It's almost so incompetent that you feel like it could
Speaker 1: have been intentional. I'm not saying it is, but it
Speaker 1: would be hard to do a much worse job in
Speaker 1: terms of planning and preparation for this. You know, it
Speaker 1: looks like, yeah, sure they want to get the Americans out,
Speaker 1: but they just through it all together at the last
Speaker 1: second because they had absolutely no idea that this was coming.
Speaker 1: Here's Senator Tom Cotton, who, as you'd, served in Afghanistan
Speaker 1: with the Army play seven, and his White House seems
Speaker 1: to be treating this like it's just a bad news
Speaker 1: story after a gaff on the campaign trail, and they
Speaker 1: can grit it out and turn the page and the
Speaker 1: headlines will change in a few days. And the headlines
Speaker 1: they wanted back in the news is what Nancy Pelosi
Speaker 1: was talking about this week. They're reckless, throw in a
Speaker 1: half trillion dollars taxing and spending bill. But when our
Speaker 1: troops are gone Tuesday, if we stick to that deadline,
Speaker 1: and there are hundreds, if not thousands, of not only
Speaker 1: American citizens, but Green card holders, and who only knows
Speaker 1: how many Afghans who risked their life to fight alongside us,
Speaker 1: who have been approved by our government, vetted for security
Speaker 1: reasons to get a visa and come here. It's not
Speaker 1: going to be a bad news story that you can
Speaker 1: just walk away from. It's going to be an ongoing catastrophe.
Speaker 1: There are going to be Afghans who are left behind.
Speaker 1: That's guaranteed. At this point. I am hopeful that there
Speaker 1: will be no Americans left behind, although it's going to
Speaker 1: be close. There were reports of military and CIA operations
Speaker 1: going on to try to airlift people out from different
Speaker 1: points around Cobble, finally bringing helicopter assets to bear. That
Speaker 1: should have been going on, you would think for days.
Speaker 1: But there were reports daily mail and other places last
Speaker 1: night about that. But now this is the eleventh hour.
Speaker 1: I mean, this is you've got to get it done.
Speaker 1: There were also some reports saying that they could be
Speaker 1: closing up shop early, essentially saying no more civilian evacuations.
Speaker 1: Now we have to focus on pulling out the military.
Speaker 1: We know that some of our NATO, our European NATO
Speaker 1: allies are not are actually doing that they're not going
Speaker 1: to go to the full deadline of August thirty. First.
Speaker 1: They're trying to get out now, and they have stopped
Speaker 1: their own evacuation operations. But the chances of us being
Speaker 1: able to get everybody out, it's just looking slimmer and slimmer.
Speaker 1: Here's a Democratic Representative, Chrissy Hulahan, Play three. But I
Speaker 1: do think that it is worrisome, as we talked about
Speaker 1: just now, that we probably won't be able to accomplish
Speaker 1: the mission of leaving no one behind with the timelines
Speaker 1: that we have. And so I think that the atmosphere
Speaker 1: in the mood within the meeting was bipartisan only one
Speaker 1: of encouraging the President to reconsider that date won't be
Speaker 1: able to accomplish the mission of leaving no one behind. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it doesn't look like that's going to be able to
Speaker 1: happen here. You know what the scariest part of this is,
Speaker 1: we're entirely in the Taliband's hands with this right now.
Speaker 1: If the Taliband decided that no more Americans were going
Speaker 1: to get through period, and there have been reports that
Speaker 1: they're turning away as I speak to you, even people
Speaker 1: with American passports, even people who are US citizens or
Speaker 1: Green card holders, doesn't matter. They're turning them back. That's
Speaker 1: what's been reported. It's chaotic. Look, there's different, there's updates,
Speaker 1: but the Taliban is calling the shots here. If they
Speaker 1: decided to shut it all down, there's very little we
Speaker 1: could do other than ask them right now because the
Speaker 1: Biden administration does not what the what was it that
Speaker 1: Joe Biden says he carries a big stick. The Biden
Speaker 1: Administration's stick is not scaring the Taliban. Here's Pentagon spokesman
Speaker 1: John Kirby saying that this is the situation. The Taliban
Speaker 1: is in control, and we'll save what we can do
Speaker 1: play for. Outside of that, the Taliban have set up checkpoints.
Speaker 1: We've talked about this before, and we are in daily
Speaker 1: communication with Taliban commanders about who we want to see
Speaker 1: get in and what the credentials are, what they look like,
Speaker 1: what's valid, and that that communication happens literally every day.
Speaker 1: We have been nothing but open with the Taliban about
Speaker 1: who we expect them to let in. Again, fully recognize
Speaker 1: that it's that that not every step of this process
Speaker 1: is in our firm control. It's in the taliban's control.
Speaker 1: That's what he's saying, this is what he's telling you,
Speaker 1: the greatest superpower in the history of the planet, and
Speaker 1: we're asking a bunch of medieval thugs walking around. I
Speaker 1: was going to say with aks and sandals, but actually
Speaker 1: it's stolen USM fours now and new new gear, new
Speaker 1: plate vests, the whole thing, courtesy of the US taxpayer.
Speaker 1: What a disaster this is. And I understand what the
Speaker 1: narrative is going to be, and you should be prepared
Speaker 1: for this. Two. The Biden administration is going to claim
Speaker 1: victory on this if they can basically get out almost
Speaker 1: all of the Americans, even there are a lot of
Speaker 1: Afghans left behind. They're gonna say it was a tough choice,
Speaker 1: it was a tough situation, but you know, we made
Speaker 1: the right call. And they'll hope that everyone forgets about
Speaker 1: what a complete mess this whole process was, how much
Speaker 1: more chaotic and stressful and risky it was than it
Speaker 1: should have been. And now that's assuming they're able to
Speaker 1: get out basically all of the Americans. If they don't,
Speaker 1: what we're going to have as a Bide administration in
Speaker 1: ongoing talks with the Taliban, and that then we have
Speaker 1: a full on hostage situation, right, and they don't have
Speaker 1: to have many of them. Taliban doesn't have to have
Speaker 1: many US hostages for there to be a lot of
Speaker 1: leverage that they'll bring to bear. And you've got to
Speaker 1: think about it this way. Do a mirror imaging of
Speaker 1: the enemy here. If you're a mullabarator, the head of
Speaker 1: the Taliban, you're sitting down at the chessboard, so to speak,
Speaker 1: what are the things that you would do? How would
Speaker 1: you maneuver the pieces here? Sure you show the international
Speaker 1: community that you're willing to be oh so cooperative after
Speaker 1: your stunning defeat of the US backed Afghan national government
Speaker 1: lightning speed, I mean faster than even the German blitzkrieg,
Speaker 1: absolutely insane. What has gone on here? And now we're
Speaker 1: in a situation. We're in a circumstance where they are
Speaker 1: dictating terms to us. But that's actually where they want
Speaker 1: to be because what will happen here is that they're
Speaker 1: going to use this as leverage to try to get
Speaker 1: more international legitimacy, to try to get more traction with
Speaker 1: other nations, and then whatever Americans are left behind. There
Speaker 1: are a lot of ways that they can play this.
Speaker 1: They could say what Americans, we don't have any Americans,
Speaker 1: and then in back channels say we'll look for them.
Speaker 1: Meanwhile they're keeping them in some dank cell somewhere, right.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of ways this can play out, where
Speaker 1: they do what other terror regimes will do, places like Iran, Oh,
Speaker 1: do we have your guy? I don't know. Maybe we
Speaker 1: have your guy. Let's talk about it. What will you
Speaker 1: give us? Don't come at us publicly about this, because
Speaker 1: then you'll never see your guy or gal again. But
Speaker 1: this is where we are, and this could have been avoided.
Speaker 1: Interestingly enough, you know, the Biden administration is now claiming
Speaker 1: that they told everybody to evacuate. They told everybody to
Speaker 1: evacuate back in what was it May or June? So
Speaker 1: did they know that this was going to happen or not.
Speaker 1: They can't seem to get their stories straight on that.
Speaker 1: They can't seem to figure out whether they had foresight
Speaker 1: here and an understanding of where all this was going,
Speaker 1: or they were completely blindsided by it all. I think
Speaker 1: it matters. I think it's important that they're able to
Speaker 1: make a well, that they're over to come to a
Speaker 1: final conclusion and share that with the American people about this,
Speaker 1: but for right now, what matters to them is the
Speaker 1: optics and trying to avoid political catastrophe. Also another note,
Speaker 1: the Afghans think about this, who are being told to
Speaker 1: go through these checkpoint lines that are saying, oh, here's
Speaker 1: my paperwork. How do you think some of these Afghans
Speaker 1: are gonna be treated by the talent ban? You think
Speaker 1: they're gonna just wave them all through, or you think
Speaker 1: some of them might be told We've got a special
Speaker 1: place to take you. And that's it. This is the situation.
Speaker 1: This is what is happening right now in a country
Speaker 1: that it looks like it is going to turn into
Speaker 1: just the jihottest hell hole perhaps that many of us
Speaker 1: have been worried about. We'll see, we'll see. Maybe it
Speaker 1: turns into Saudi Arabia without the oil. That's what some
Speaker 1: people have been saying. Maybe they just want control within Afghanistan,
Speaker 1: they won't play official host to international terrorists. When I say,
Speaker 1: maybe you know, I can't give you the odds on this.
Speaker 1: Who knows? What does the intelligence community know? What do
Speaker 1: our military intelligence arms know about Afghanistan? Really if they
Speaker 1: couldn't know, and I have to put this out there
Speaker 1: for you. If they couldn't know how quickly the entire
Speaker 1: three hundred thousand plus Afghan National Secure forces would not
Speaker 1: even collapse. They just disintegrated. It's like they were never
Speaker 1: even there. If they couldn't know that, how can we
Speaker 1: actually know what the reality is of terror tized and
Speaker 1: the true strategic intention of the Taliban. Yeah, we know
Speaker 1: their savages, We know they have this this insane, ultra
Speaker 1: fundamentalist Islamic approach. We get it. But beyond that, anybody
Speaker 1: who tells you that they have a clear picture of
Speaker 1: where this is heading is just making it up. They
Speaker 1: don't know because there are no Americans right now. There
Speaker 1: is no American insight into this that you could entirely
Speaker 1: trust in terms of where this is all heading, because
Speaker 1: all the information we've been getting is filtered through a
Speaker 1: government that's entirely incompetent and intelligence community that just had
Speaker 1: a massive failure. All Right, we'll talk COVID in a second. Here.

Speaker 1: I'm on it now. It's time to cancel cancel culture
Speaker 1: play eight really. Starting November the first, we're going to
Speaker 1: implement an insurance searcharge such that if you're not vaccinated
Speaker 1: at that point, we're going to add a two hundred
Speaker 1: dollars monthly premium searcharge onto your health insurance costs because
Speaker 1: this is not just costing lives, this is costing us
Speaker 1: financial resources as well. So they're now going to find
Speaker 1: you if you don't get this vac at Delta Airlines,
Speaker 1: other companies are taking even stronger action. They're saying, if
Speaker 1: you don't get the shot, you get fired. City governments,
Speaker 1: police departments, get the shot or get fired. This is
Speaker 1: what we're this is what we're heading for. Now, how
Speaker 1: are we going to stop this? They're they're taking a
Speaker 1: patchwork approach, the lockdown Fauciites are taking a you will
Speaker 1: do what we say, will find a way to make
Speaker 1: you do it approach. As you know here in New
Speaker 1: York City, they've basically they've overrun the battlefield. Get the shot,
Speaker 1: or you might lose your job. But if it's not
Speaker 1: even about your job. You can't go into a restaurant,
Speaker 1: you can't go into certain stores, you can't go into venues,
Speaker 1: you can't go into movie theaters, whatever, can't go to
Speaker 1: a bar see your friends, get the shot or else.
Speaker 1: That's where we are. The Biden administration has been explicitly
Speaker 1: and clearly pushing for this. Now, let's remember, friends, the
Speaker 1: federal government isn't just something that has an opinion about stuff. Sometimes,
Speaker 1: the federal government, especially we're talking about certain businesses, has
Speaker 1: a tremendous amount of leverage and pressure that it can
Speaker 1: bring to bear, especially if you're saying, oh, a hospital system,
Speaker 1: right if you're involved in something that's already heavily federally regulated.
Speaker 1: So this is the plant. They're going to find a way.
Speaker 1: Wherever you are in the country right now, they're looking
Speaker 1: to find a way to make you get the shot,
Speaker 1: even though it just came out. You know that they're
Speaker 1: they're saying that every six months. Actually it was eight
Speaker 1: months two weeks ago. Now it's six months. You're gonna
Speaker 1: need a booster I think about this. You know you've
Speaker 1: got family vacation plans or something. You're gonna go somewhere. Oh,
Speaker 1: I don't know. Do you have your paperwork for that
Speaker 1: booster shot? You're a month out of date. Sorry, can't
Speaker 1: have you killing grandma. This is the society that they're
Speaker 1: now demanding, and once they have vaccine passports in place,
Speaker 1: think about all the other ways. I mean, they're essentially
Speaker 1: creating a massive database of Americans, their health, their movements,
Speaker 1: their travel, everything. They're creating the basic infrastructure for a
Speaker 1: total surveillance state. I mean, we already have that from
Speaker 1: the private sector thanks to the Internet, but now we're
Speaker 1: getting it from the government side as well. These people
Speaker 1: are obsessed with control. They're never contrite. You'll notice this.
Speaker 1: The people that have been pushing you to do more,
Speaker 1: to get the shot and all this, they never say, wow,
Speaker 1: we went too far, sorry about that. No, it's never enough.
Speaker 1: They don't apologize because it's not about what's right. It's
Speaker 1: not about keeping you safe. It's about because they said so.
Speaker 1: That's really the justification for all of this now because
Speaker 1: they said so. And here we are looking at this,
Speaker 1: seeing how this plays out across the country in places
Speaker 1: like Jared Poulis of Colorado is trying to take shots.
Speaker 1: What's the favorite thing to do. Take a shot at
Speaker 1: Governor Ron de Santis for how he's handling COVID. They
Speaker 1: have to defeat the Desantists strategy or else. They know
Speaker 1: they're ruined going into the mid terms. They know this, right,
Speaker 1: they know the Democrat Party brand has been battered as
Speaker 1: Cuomo resigns in disgrace, as Newsom is facing recall, those
Speaker 1: are the top two Democrat governors handling this whole thing.
Speaker 1: Play clip nine. I would hope that people are considering
Speaker 1: moving important meetings to Colorado from Florida and Texas and
Speaker 1: other higher risk areas. And of course, we encourage all
Speaker 1: conferences to be able to take the steps necessary to
Speaker 1: implement best practices with regard to COVID nineteen. Those often
Speaker 1: include supporting indoor mass wearing at times, they include testing
Speaker 1: at times, they include vaccination requirements. There's a variety of
Speaker 1: ways to do it, but Colorado is looking like a
Speaker 1: better and better place to do business relative to Texas
Speaker 1: and Florida every day. I mean, yeah, take a snapshot
Speaker 1: of where things are this week. We'll see where things
Speaker 1: are this winter, and we'll see where things are when
Speaker 1: we actually look at the per capita hospitalization and mortality data. Remember,
Speaker 1: they did all these things in California, New York, New Jersey, Michigan, Illinois,
Speaker 1: and states that didn't do these things, like Texas and
Speaker 1: Florida have basically the same and they say, haha, see
Speaker 1: we might have had you know, one percent or three
Speaker 1: percent less cases or whatever it may be. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: it was supposed to be a whole lot more than that.
Speaker 1: You guys were there were all wrong, their lockdowns, the
Speaker 1: whole thing, they were all wrong. And with kids in schools,
Speaker 1: the UK has gotten rid of masks for children in schools.
Speaker 1: Are they full of hatred for their own children? Because
Speaker 1: they say that Rhonda Santists wants kids to die because
Speaker 1: he won't push the mask mandates. Right, this is the
Speaker 1: line you get from the Libs, this is the line
Speaker 1: the Democrats will use. Rhonda Santists doesn't care if kids die.
Speaker 1: So is the entire United Kingdom looking to have a
Speaker 1: mass extermination of its own children in schools? Or is
Speaker 1: that idiotic? Is that a cheap shot? And is it
Speaker 1: clear that if you actually take a moment to think
Speaker 1: and look and read, you'll see that masking in schools
Speaker 1: is a waste, It's wrong. It's actually worse than it's
Speaker 1: worse than worthless. It is wrong to do. It is
Speaker 1: punishing children and for really for the anxiety and the
Speaker 1: political political preening of adults. That's why Governor Rhonda Santis
Speaker 1: is fighting back about against this. And I'm glad he
Speaker 1: has played thirteen. But just understand what they are doing.
Speaker 1: I mean, they are thumbing their nose at the rights
Speaker 1: of parents. Some of these districts had left parents, had
Speaker 1: honored the ability of the parents, and then they're taking
Speaker 1: it back after, you know, being able to do it.
Speaker 1: So you know, parents clearly are on the best position
Speaker 1: to be able to do this. That's what state law says,
Speaker 1: and I think that that's the way to go. But
Speaker 1: you know, nobody is above the law, and you can't
Speaker 1: go above the law and take away people's rights. And
Speaker 1: that's what they're doing. They're taking away parents' rights and
Speaker 1: there will be consequences. Who will stand up against this?
Speaker 1: Rhonda Sentis is taking action. Who else will stand up
Speaker 1: against this? On the radio show today, I'm having a
Speaker 1: conversation with Christy Nome, the governor of South Dakota. I
Speaker 1: think if you go back and see what g Nome
Speaker 1: did on the transgender bill that she said she'd sign
Speaker 1: and then refused to sign, I think she cave to
Speaker 1: corporate pressure. That's what I think happened. She also said
Speaker 1: it was a style and form revision she requested and
Speaker 1: then she was going to do. Yeah, did that ever happen, folks.
Speaker 1: Was there some big effort to come back with a
Speaker 1: better bill? Really? Yeah? And now here we are. And
Speaker 1: I understand people. People want to like a female, an
Speaker 1: appealing female governor in a very red state at a
Speaker 1: time when we could use some new blood, so to speak,
Speaker 1: at the top of the Republican Party. And I understand that.
Speaker 1: And I'm not trying, you know, I don't like to
Speaker 1: tear down conservatives. I'm not trying to pull down our
Speaker 1: own side. But I also think it's important to have honesty,
Speaker 1: and I think that we can't be strong as a party.
Speaker 1: I mean, let's be clear about this. We're losing right
Speaker 1: now across the country. We are losing the battle against
Speaker 1: vaccine mandates. All right, it's the battle is already lost.
Speaker 1: In New York City where I am, it's gone. If
Speaker 1: they're gonna make everybody get the shot here, it's it's
Speaker 1: already happening. They're just gonna make life impossible. So you
Speaker 1: could say, oh, you can leave at some level that
Speaker 1: seems like that lets the crazy Fauciites win, But even
Speaker 1: beyond that, okay, and go where hopefully you're not gonna
Speaker 1: have to fly, because by this winter I think they're
Speaker 1: going to start saying, you need a vaccine passport for
Speaker 1: interstate airline travel. And so Christy Nome had an opportunity
Speaker 1: from the South Dakota State legislature to sign something that
Speaker 1: would ban vaccine mandates for employers. Now, I understand people
Speaker 1: are gonna say there's an argument here, and I know
Speaker 1: what her argument is going to be. Without even talking,
Speaker 1: you were saying, Oh, I'm not into big government. I
Speaker 1: want to let govern I want to let businesses choose themselves. Okay,
Speaker 1: there are a lot of ways that this can go,
Speaker 1: but let's just let's just look at one of them.
Speaker 1: Why not take a stand in favor of protecting Why
Speaker 1: not take a stand in favor of individual rights, freedom
Speaker 1: of conscience? Put this under an antidiscrimination framework. Right, people
Speaker 1: have a right of conscience not to have a shot
Speaker 1: injected into their bodies. And private there are a lot
Speaker 1: of things private businesses are not allowed to do at
Speaker 1: the state and federal level. There are tons of regulations already.
Speaker 1: So oh, let's not regulate to protect an individual freedom right.
Speaker 1: Why you can say, oh, buck, it's up to the business. Really,
Speaker 1: can the business to decline, decline to serve somebody because
Speaker 1: of a protected characteristic of that individual. Can the business
Speaker 1: decline to hire somebody or fire somebody for any of
Speaker 1: those reasons? Now, I know you can say, well, Buck,
Speaker 1: I wish that businesses could do whatever they want. You know,
Speaker 1: if you want to take this extreme libertarian view, Okay,
Speaker 1: that's not the country we live in right now, though,
Speaker 1: that's not the framework of the law as it stands today.
Speaker 1: So why not actually do something, set a standard, go
Speaker 1: on offense. I'll ask her these questions, and I think
Speaker 1: I'm likely to get a lot of double speak about
Speaker 1: you know, a small government and constitution. By the way,
Speaker 1: constitution is not the issue here. Plenary powers the state.
Speaker 1: The state can actually do this. But I don't want
Speaker 1: to give too much of this away in case her
Speaker 1: very annoying comms team is listening to my podcast to
Speaker 1: get some which they're probably doing right now if if
Speaker 1: they're smart, they're doing that before we have our our
Speaker 1: conversation today. But it's frustrating because now we don't. We
Speaker 1: don't have time for phonies right now, we don't have
Speaker 1: time for half measures. We are losing against the lockdowners,
Speaker 1: and we need people who will stand up and do

Speaker 1: that we can build a college fund for Little Mark,
Speaker 1: little producer Mark Junior, you know stuff like that. So
Speaker 1: let's now get into the fighting Irish mascot. Actually, producer, Mark,
Speaker 1: let me, let me, let me bring you in on
Speaker 1: this one. You're you know, more about sports. Have you
Speaker 1: ever heard of human being say the fighting Irish mascot
Speaker 1: is offensive? No, not even once? Right, It's an iconic mascot.
Speaker 1: It's been what a hundred years that Notre Dame has
Speaker 1: been using that. Probably nobody loves a fighting Irish mascot
Speaker 1: and it's not supposed to even be an Irish person.
Speaker 1: I mean, not that that would even really matter to
Speaker 1: my mind. It's a lepre con. It's like we have
Speaker 1: a unicorn or a pegasus or something as a mascot.
Speaker 1: It is a mystical being that is associated with the
Speaker 1: folklore of Ireland. And now there's a there's a survey out.
Speaker 1: I mean, you can't make this stuff up. Survey out
Speaker 1: that says that it is now considered an offensive. It
Speaker 1: is now considered offensive. And I just wonder, you know
Speaker 1: how I've been saying the New York Post reporting on this,
Speaker 1: I've been saying for a while, Mark, give it time, they'll,
Speaker 1: they'll they'll really is that the Vikings did not state
Speaker 1: their pronouns and were not progressive enough because they actually
Speaker 1: were enslaving people and like, you know, loot, rape, pillage.
Speaker 1: They were pretty pretty rough society. I'm of the Vikings
Speaker 1: might have to change their name. They might have to
Speaker 1: become the Sea Slugs or something, the Sea Slugs. Why
Speaker 1: the Sea slugs, because how could that be offensive? You're right,
Speaker 1: you know a good point. I've got something. What do
Speaker 1: you think is the next mascot name that's actually going
Speaker 1: to go down in flame? I'm not mascot, you know?
Speaker 1: Team name? Is there one that you think you're like,
Speaker 1: that's not gonna last. I'm just off the top of
Speaker 1: my head, I would say the Atlanta Braves have caught
Speaker 1: flak in the past just because they do the tomahawk
Speaker 1: chop and stuff like that, and they do have I
Speaker 1: think an Indian person logo of some sort. I don't
Speaker 1: know at the top of my head that one is
Speaker 1: the only one. Oh. Maybe the Chicago Blackhawks has been
Speaker 1: in the news in the past, but both organizations, for
Speaker 1: the record, have said absolutely not. We're not changing our name.
Speaker 1: That's ridiculous. But it's a big it's a big move
Speaker 1: that change the name. You know, this is why Yale
Speaker 1: University if it became you know, the Associated University of
Speaker 1: Eastern Newhaven or something, people wouldn't be as excited to
Speaker 1: go there because, you know, Yale is name for a
Speaker 1: slave trader. Producer Mark Ellie who Yale? Oh? I didn't
Speaker 1: know that. Yes, yes, a slave trader. Think about that
Speaker 1: guy was involved. You know, his business was the business
Speaker 1: of trading slaves. Anyway, So is the Notre Dame mascot
Speaker 1: gonna actually change? I don't think so. But this is
Speaker 1: the This is the quick takeaway. If people want to
Speaker 1: be offended folks, they'll always always find a way, find
Speaker 1: a reason, So just tell them cry more lib Listen
Speaker 1: to Bucks Extent podcast. That's it for today, Folks. Back tomorrow.
Speaker 1: Send in some thoughts for Roll Call. We'll get to
Speaker 1: it with producer Mark hanging out with us. Talk to
Speaker 1: you tomorrow. Shields Time
