Thank you very much. Buck. 16 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 1: It's an honor. So let's just get right to it. 17 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:31,759 Speaker 1: We saw the numbers today, and we knew the numbers 18 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 1: on the unemployment. We're going to be bad, sir, and 19 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:36,959 Speaker 1: people are really concerned. I'm here in New York, you're 20 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,839 Speaker 1: a fellow New Yorker, but all across the country people 21 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 1: are worried about jobs. What do you want to say 22 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 1: to the folks who are just beginning to see that 23 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 1: the country is reopening, Well, it really is. It's starting, 24 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: and it's going to start, and I think it's going 25 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 1: to get really you know, I've been calling it. You 26 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 1: actually wrote it once, and I do watch you, and 27 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,280 Speaker 1: I think you're terrific. Book. I have to say, hence 28 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: I talk to you. But I think that you're going 29 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 1: to see a transition to greatness. And the transition is 30 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: going to begin pretty much now. It's already started. If 31 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 1: your look at the stock exchanges when you're twenty five 32 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 1: thousand plus and we just went through the worst pandemic 33 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 1: since nineteen seventeen, over one hundred years, it's pretty amazing. 34 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:15,919 Speaker 1: But I think you're going to see some very good 35 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 1: numbers coming into the third quarter, and I think the 36 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:20,799 Speaker 1: fourth quarter is going to be terrific. And I think 37 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 1: next year is going to be a great year. We 38 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 1: have a lot of stimulus out there, we have a 39 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: lot of potential to do things, and I just think 40 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 1: you're going to see some really good numbers in I 41 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 1: think you're starting to see that right now. And with 42 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 1: the governors that are saying that they're going to need 43 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: additional funding. They're calling for bailouts. I know that you 44 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: had a meeting with Governor Cuomo recently. How should that 45 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 1: be handled? What's your position on what should go on 46 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,920 Speaker 1: here with the states that do have big budget shortfalls 47 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 1: because of the lockdown. Well, there's a big difference if 48 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 1: you're talking about then of the pandemic, that's one thing, 49 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,519 Speaker 1: or if you're talking about twenty five years of bad management, 50 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 1: which is really something that some of them are doing. 51 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:03,639 Speaker 1: You know, you look at some and we won't use 52 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 1: the names of the states, but if you look at 53 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,959 Speaker 1: some of what's going on, they want to have a bailout, 54 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 1: and a lot of Republicans aren't wanting to do a bailout. 55 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 1: Now if it's to help over this terrible pandemic released 56 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 1: and came right out of China that should have been 57 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: stopped by China. They could have stopped that, They should 58 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,839 Speaker 1: have stopped it, that's a different thing. But so we're 59 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 1: negotiating and we'll see we're going to take care of 60 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: this country, but they are. You do have a group 61 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 1: of people they want to solve and take care of 62 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 1: problems that we're not caused by the pandemic, and that's 63 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: a different story for anyone joining us in progress. We're 64 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: talking to the President of the United States, Donald Trump. 65 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 1: Mister President. I also wanted to ask about the possibility 66 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 1: here of a second way of something you and I 67 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 1: spoke about briefly. And there's a lot of concern out 68 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: there for businesses, for the markets, for people who want 69 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 1: to know if they get their job back or they 70 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 1: get a new job, they don't want to have to 71 00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: shut it down again or lose that lose another job. 72 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: So what is your position on what we're facing right now? 73 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 1: How are we preparing for the winter, you know, the 74 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: fall winter flu season. From your perspective, well, the numbers 75 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: are going down, or we've done everything right. We've done 76 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 1: We did the ban on China. We just we then 77 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 1: did a ban on Europe last night, as you know, 78 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:22,840 Speaker 1: we did a ban on Brazil. Brazil's being hit very, 79 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:26,279 Speaker 1: very hard, but we will not be closing the country. 80 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 1: We've we've done the right thing. We've gotten to know 81 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:34,039 Speaker 1: what we're dealing with, and it's it's very brutal. It's 82 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 1: a nasty, horrible disease and it's a shame we have 83 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: to be doing this. It's a horrible thing that we've 84 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,359 Speaker 1: lost so many people, but the world has lost so 85 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 1: many people. You know, we're one hundred eighty eight one 86 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 1: hundred and eighty six or eighty eight countries right now, 87 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 1: all fighting it and fighting it, you know, strong. But 88 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 1: it's a terrible thing. But we will. You know. I 89 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 1: think what we might see as embers, you might see flames, 90 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 1: you might see something, and we'll get it out one 91 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,600 Speaker 1: way the other. We'll get it out, we'll stop it. 92 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 1: But the country's going forward. We're going forward, and that's 93 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 1: the way it is. We have. Really I consider it 94 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,279 Speaker 1: even no choice. We have to do it, because you 95 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 1: break a country, you break it by doing too much. 96 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: Of what we did. We did the right thing. If 97 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 1: you I'll give you an example. If we didn't do it, 98 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: I think you would have lost a million and a 99 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 1: half to two and a half million people. So that 100 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: would be fifteen times the number that we lost. It 101 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: would not have been sustainable acceptable as a leader. It 102 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,479 Speaker 1: would not have been acceptable. People would have said, what 103 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:40,040 Speaker 1: is wrong with him? So we're at one hundred thousand. 104 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:43,799 Speaker 1: That was the lower end, and one life is too many. 105 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: I have to say buck. One life is too many. 106 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,479 Speaker 1: This should never have happened. But that's at the lower 107 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: end of the lower models. And you know, it's a 108 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,480 Speaker 1: terrible thing. But we could have lost one and a 109 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: half to two and a half million people. So take 110 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 1: all of the death you've seen and now multiply at 111 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 1: times ten, fifteen or twenty or more, and it would 112 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: not have been sustainable. You would not have been I 113 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,159 Speaker 1: think you would have had you would have had riots 114 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 1: in the street. Mister President. We've in recent weeks had 115 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 1: more information about the targeting of General Flynn, about the 116 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 1: lies and the conspiracy around the Russia Gate or Obama 117 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: Gate and these different versions of essentially the Russia Russia conspiracy. 118 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 1: I wanted to know what we should be expecting going forward. 119 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: Are there more revelations? I mean, Director of National Intelligence 120 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 1: acting now departed, Richard Grennell did a fantastic job from 121 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: a transparency perspective. Are we going to get more transparency 122 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,839 Speaker 1: because the American people deserve to know what was done 123 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 1: to you and what happened to your administration before we 124 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:57,279 Speaker 1: go in and look at the next possible election. It 125 00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: should never be allowed to happen again. But what happened 126 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 1: to this administration, what happened to General Flynn, what happened 127 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 1: to others that are going through it still it should 128 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: never It was an attempted coup. It was an attempted 129 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 1: take down of a duly elected president. Happened to be me, 130 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: could have been anybody, but you would think we're not 131 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: a third world country. This was a coup and they 132 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: got caught, and they've been caught. I think John Ratcliffe 133 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 1: is going to do a fantastic job. Bill Barr is 134 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 1: doing a terrific job. And I specifically as you know, 135 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 1: I mean, you know it, probably better than anybody. I 136 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 1: would absolutely have the right to totally get involved. I've 137 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,559 Speaker 1: chosen not to because I think it's better that if 138 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: I didn't. I could and I could have, but I've 139 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 1: chosen not to. Bill Barr's handling it. Other people are 140 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 1: handling it. John Ratcliffe now is fantastic. He'll be involved. 141 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 1: But I will say this, I believe you're going to 142 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: see things that will shock the minds even of the 143 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 1: people that were most skeptical. It is an incredible it's 144 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 1: I think it's the greatest scandal in the political scandal, 145 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: certainly in the history of our country. This makes Watergate 146 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 1: what they did to us many of us, but what 147 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: they did to this country makes Watergate look like small potatus. 148 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 1: We're speaking to President United States Donald Trump. Mister President, 149 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 1: you signed an executive order today having to do with 150 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 1: social media platforms and essentially declaring that they cannot have 151 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 1: certain protection if they're going to be politically biased, as 152 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 1: we saw with the Twitter notification on a recent tweet 153 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,839 Speaker 1: of yours. First off, I just want to know what 154 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 1: would you what do you want to see from these 155 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 1: these platforms going forward? Well, I signed, and this has 156 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 1: to do with two thirty, but it's it's really more 157 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:59,559 Speaker 1: than that. It's really it's a level of power, whether 158 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,800 Speaker 1: you could almost say it's monopolistic power, but it's very 159 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 1: dangerous for our country where you have a few people, 160 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:09,080 Speaker 1: where you have an individual, where you have a company 161 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 1: that literally is going to call the got of our elections, 162 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 1: and they treat us very, very unfairly. You know that 163 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:19,839 Speaker 1: from a conservative standpoint, from a Republican standpoint, they treat 164 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 1: us so horribly. There are those that say it's an 165 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 1: incredible miracle, the miracle of twenty sixteen, because they were 166 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 1: very much against us. But now they're insane. They've gone insane, 167 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,559 Speaker 1: and you look at what's going on, along with some 168 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 1: others an all fairness, working with the Democrats, and they're 169 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 1: very well aligned with the Democrats, as is the media 170 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 1: aligned with the Democrats, with the exception of a small amount. 171 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: One of the reasons I do call is like this 172 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,199 Speaker 1: is we have to get our word out and if 173 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 1: we didn't, we wouldn't have a chance. But the media 174 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: the fake I call it the fake news media. As 175 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:59,319 Speaker 1: you very well know, the media is disgraceful. They're so dishonest. 176 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 1: Not all it. There are some great people, great journalists 177 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: that I know and I respect, but tremendous amounts of 178 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 1: vast majority of the media people have no idea how 179 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: bad the New York Times is, how bad, how evil, 180 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 1: how corrupt. In my opinion, the New York Times is 181 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 1: they'll take something that's good and make it sound horrible. 182 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: The Washington Post, I quote the Amazon Washington Post is 183 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 1: just horrible. And you know the interesting thing, if you're 184 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 1: a person, you're driving a cab, you're you're a bricklay 185 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 1: or a carpenter executive, you read a story, you don't 186 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 1: know what's going on. I know what happened. And then 187 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 1: I'll read a story and it bears no relationship to 188 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,680 Speaker 1: the story and they know it. They have phony sources, 189 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 1: people that don't exist usually as people. They make them up. 190 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: It's not like OG. The source wasn't quoted accurately, there 191 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 1: was no source. It's phony, phony sources. So I think, 192 00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 1: you know, this may be better than most buck, but 193 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 1: it is incredibly dishonest. So we need an honest media, 194 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:08,080 Speaker 1: and we have to call out these platforms, these horrible 195 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 1: platforms that have been so biased. I mean on the 196 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:13,680 Speaker 1: front page today have the New York Post. They have 197 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: a man named Yoel Roth and he's the king, I 198 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:23,120 Speaker 1: guess of Twitter. He's the judge of what goes on Twitter. 199 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 1: And he's a super lefty that will We're just you know, 200 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,959 Speaker 1: like to your administration and say he's a site Integrity 201 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 1: Chief I believe is his title, whatever that means. And 202 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:38,079 Speaker 1: you look at his past statements and tweets and you 203 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: take a look at what he said on social media 204 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: and it's terrible. And that goes for Facebook. They had 205 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 1: the woman who was so atrocious that hearing six months ago. 206 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,320 Speaker 1: If you remember her, I said, isn't that that same 207 00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 1: woman called out my son, who's a young He's a 208 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 1: very young guy. He's just turned fourteen years old and 209 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:01,680 Speaker 1: this was a year a year ago, right, and he 210 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 1: is he is just horrendous. And the two other people 211 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:09,360 Speaker 1: that facebook a plain, these are horrendous people and there's 212 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 1: no fairness with them. So we have to do it 213 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 1: the hard way. And that's what I do. I mean, 214 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 1: I fight, and I fight for what I know is 215 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,839 Speaker 1: best for the country. And I want to get your thoughts, 216 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 1: mister President, on what's going on right now in Minneapolis. 217 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 1: I saw that there's at least reporting of additional not 218 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 1: just protests, but additional looting and violence on the streets there, 219 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 1: and the mayor is calling for calm. The National Guard 220 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 1: has been called in. What are your thoughts on that 221 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 1: situation and how does the federal government play a role 222 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:43,840 Speaker 1: in calming things down and also achieving justice. It is very, 223 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 1: very sad, and we've notified everybody in our in our side. 224 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 1: On the federal side, we're very much engaged and working 225 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,319 Speaker 1: with local law enforcement. That goes from Bill bar the 226 00:12:56,400 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: Attorney General, to the FBI, and we're very much involved 227 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 1: with that. We want to get to the bottom was 228 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:05,959 Speaker 1: a terrible scene. I watched it like everybody else did. 229 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,959 Speaker 1: That was a horrible thing that I watched. Horrible And 230 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:10,839 Speaker 1: I want to also ask before we let you get 231 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 1: back to running the country and leading the free world, sir, 232 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:18,200 Speaker 1: what you think your chances are right now going up 233 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:22,080 Speaker 1: against Joe Biden, who now wears a mask a lot 234 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 1: of the time all over the place and his Twitter avatar, 235 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 1: and he's certainly making a thing of it. How do 236 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: you think your competition is shaping up so far? And 237 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: what are going to be some of the ways that 238 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 1: you want to make sure the American people remember why 239 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 1: a Trump presidency part two would be very different from 240 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 1: a Biden presidency. Well, I think we're going to do 241 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 1: very well over the next number of months. You're starting 242 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,440 Speaker 1: to see the numbers really do well, and he's not 243 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 1: for jobs, so you look at what they've done over 244 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 1: then look, I'm only here because of Joe Biden and 245 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,839 Speaker 1: his partner. I'm only here for that reason. Without them, 246 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be here. I became president because people were 247 00:13:55,600 --> 00:14:01,080 Speaker 1: very unhappy China walked away with us. We're doing We're 248 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 1: very strong on China and it's had the worst year 249 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 1: before the epidemic. Before the pandemic, China had the worst 250 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 1: year that they've had in sixty seven years, approximately sixty 251 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 1: seven years, because we were being strong for the people 252 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 1: of this country with respect to China. But I think this, 253 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 1: I think Biden is surrounded by smart people. I think 254 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: Biden himself is not at all smart. I don't think 255 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 1: he knows what's going on. I see tweets come out 256 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 1: where they analyze this thing or that thing, or fifteen 257 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 1: different events that took place, and they analyze them very brilliantly. 258 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 1: But that's not put out by Joe Biden. It's put 259 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 1: out by people that are surrounding him wanting to get 260 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 1: him into office. He's turned very left, But again I 261 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 1: don't even think he's started left. I think it's just 262 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 1: that he doesn't know where he is. He's lost. He's 263 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 1: a lost sheep. And I see him, I hear him, 264 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: and I don't know how this man can be president. 265 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 1: He's just he just couldn't do it. And then you 266 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 1: look at the sun walking away with a billion and 267 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 1: a half dollars of money to invest. Enna doesn't do that. 268 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 1: They don't do that for the top people. Or you 269 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 1: look at what happened with Ukraine with the sun where 270 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 1: he ends up making a fortune. This again, I didn't 271 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 1: have a job, got thrown out of the services and 272 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 1: didn't have a job for a long time, and then 273 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 1: he's making millions of dollars a year. You can't have 274 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 1: that as your president. I mean, it's just a very 275 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 1: sad situation. But you just can't now whether or not 276 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,640 Speaker 1: it all goes. The Democrats are very powerful. We have 277 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 1: some very bad rhinos in our party, and frankly, some 278 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 1: of the rhinos, some of the never trumpers, are worse 279 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 1: than the Democrats. And you know we've appointed you know 280 00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 1: this very well. We've appointed two hundred, close to two 281 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 1: hundred and seventy five federal judges, including Appello judges, two 282 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 1: great Supreme Court judges. It's you know, we're shattering records 283 00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,880 Speaker 1: on judges. You look at that. We've rebuilt the mill, 284 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 1: We've cut taxes. We've gotten more regulation cuts than any 285 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 1: president in history. And that's done in three and a 286 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: half years, and some of them went eight years, or 287 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 1: in one case more than eight years. Nobody's come close 288 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 1: to regulation cuts. I'm protecting the Second Amendment. Joe Biden, 289 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 1: you're gonna lose your Second Amendment one hundred percent. We 290 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 1: got veterans choice. We took care of our military. But 291 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 1: when we rebuilt our military and we took care of 292 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 1: veterans choice and also veterans accountability, we're able now to 293 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 1: take care of We can fire people in the VA 294 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 1: who treat our veterans badly. We can fire them. You 295 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 1: couldn't do that because of frankly, the unions and civil service. 296 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 1: You couldn't do it. I mean, we've done so much, 297 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 1: I don't think and a lot of people nobody dispused 298 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,480 Speaker 1: me in this probably more in three years than just 299 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 1: about any other president in the first three years. So 300 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 1: we've done a lot. Hopefully that's going to be good 301 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 1: enough because we need the four more years to seed 302 00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 1: religious liberty, so many other things that we've done that 303 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 1: nobody else would do. A thing, all right, to try 304 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 1: where somebody who's terminally ill wasn't able to get a 305 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:07,639 Speaker 1: drug that looked like it work, you know works, but 306 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 1: it wasn't fully tested yet. But they're terminally ill, they're 307 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 1: going to die. They've been trying to get it past 308 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 1: for forty five years. They couldn't do it. I got 309 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 1: it past and by the way, and miracles are taking place. 310 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 1: Incredible things are happening. So we've done a lot, Buck, 311 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 1: and we have some great support, and we really appreciate 312 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:28,360 Speaker 1: your viewpoint is very important to me, very very important. 313 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,120 Speaker 1: That's how we got to know each other as the president. 314 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 1: It's an honor, sir. Thank you so much for calling in. 315 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:36,200 Speaker 1: And just can I get you to give some words 316 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:37,880 Speaker 1: of support. You're a New Yorker, I'm a New Yorker. 317 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 1: You're speaking a lot of New Yorkers right now. We've 318 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 1: gone through a tough one. Can you just give us 319 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:45,159 Speaker 1: at your closing thoughts on that and then we'll let 320 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 1: you get back to running in government. Absolutely. Buck, Look, 321 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 1: I'm very sad with what I see in New York. 322 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: I've known New York. That's where I grew up. That's 323 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 1: a place I just love. And when I look at 324 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 1: those streets, it looks like they have barren and you've 325 00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 1: got to open it up. You've got to get going. 326 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,360 Speaker 1: You've got to just Oh, if you're going to break 327 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,480 Speaker 1: this city. People are leaving, they're leaving for Florida, they're 328 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 1: leaving for other places. The city is going to be broken. 329 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 1: It's got to start having signs of life. It's very 330 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:13,879 Speaker 1: very sad what they're doing, and they've got to do 331 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 1: it really, really quickly and safely. But they have to 332 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 1: do something. They can't let this go on because you're 333 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,400 Speaker 1: going to break the city, mister President. Thank you so much, sir, 334 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 1: stay in the fight. We appreciate it. I will thank 335 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 1: you very much. Buck, great honor.

It's very kind of 340 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:43,920 Speaker 1: him to say that he values my opinion.

Trump 351 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:22,199 Speaker 1: issues threats after raging Minneapolis protests. That's the front page. 352 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,640 Speaker 1: That's the top of the New York Times right now. 353 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 1: The issue you see, according to the most prominent liberal 354 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 1: paper in the in the country, the ultimate left wing 355 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:42,159 Speaker 1: opinion maker, if you will, the problem isn't over a 356 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:47,479 Speaker 1: hundred businesses ransacked, looted, many of them lit on fire, 357 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:53,720 Speaker 1: burned to the ground. The problem isn't the violence, the 358 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:58,600 Speaker 1: hatred against the police. It's not that there are people 359 00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:02,399 Speaker 1: yelling shoot white people last night, as was played on 360 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 1: Tucker Carlson's show on Fox. That's not the problem. The problem, 361 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 1: according to The New York Times, the mainstream media and 362 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:17,119 Speaker 1: all the rest, is Trump and racism. Of course, but 363 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 1: those things go hand in hand. In their mind, Trump 364 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 1: is the ultimate symbol of racism to the left. As 365 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:26,959 Speaker 1: insane as that is, that's how they view it. They 366 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:32,879 Speaker 1: refer to widening demonstrations. This is I have to tell you, 367 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,280 Speaker 1: this is one of these moments where something happened in 368 00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 1: the news cycle that I will remember forever. This is 369 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:42,560 Speaker 1: going to be one that really sticks out. You add 370 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 1: MSNBC's Ali velshiet and it's better if you see the video. 371 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:50,879 Speaker 1: But I'll just I want to play the audio for 372 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:54,399 Speaker 1: you so you can understand how crazy this is. You 373 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 1: have an MSN MSNBC reporter who is standing in front 374 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,240 Speaker 1: of a blaze, I mean, standing in front of a 375 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:08,399 Speaker 1: building that is completely engulfed in flames, and what he 376 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:13,120 Speaker 1: decides to say about it is well the following play 377 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:16,399 Speaker 1: clip four. I want to be clear and how I 378 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:20,960 Speaker 1: characterize this. This is mostly a protest. It is not. 379 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 1: It is not generally speaking unruly what fires have been started. 380 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 1: It is mostly a protest. He is standing in front 381 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:35,520 Speaker 1: of a massive fire, burning down a private business after 382 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 1: it had been looted, over a hundred businesses, destroyed, looted, ransacked, 383 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 1: people smashing atm machines and cash registers with hammers, running 384 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 1: out of stores, arms full of PlayStations and whatever else. 385 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 1: But it's a mostly peaceful protest. This is like saying 386 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 1: the Lincoln assassination was mostly a theatrical production, or that 387 00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:09,440 Speaker 1: the Chernobol meltdown was mostly a peaceful collision with sub 388 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 1: atomic particles, or perhaps the Bay of Pigs invasion was 389 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 1: a mostly sunny day on Cuba's lovely beaches. These people 390 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 1: in the left wing media are absurd, They're disgusting, and 391 00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 1: they are damaging. You know. They often say that Trump 392 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 1: is a threat, that Trump is They are damaging the 393 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:34,920 Speaker 1: country with what they do and what they say. And 394 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:37,639 Speaker 1: there are a few things more cynical and condescending. Let 395 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 1: me just say this right now, then, millionaire CNN and 396 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:46,400 Speaker 1: MSNBC anchors who live in Calorama mansions or Upper West 397 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 1: Side duplexes, pretending that hundreds of businesses burned and looted 398 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 1: in Minneapolis is in any way an understandable expression of 399 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:05,920 Speaker 1: iCal discontent. It's just it's just grotesque, it really is. 400 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 1: Oh yes, this is a this is an expression of outrage. No, no, no, 401 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:14,959 Speaker 1: looting and rioting is not an not an expression of outrage. 402 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:19,159 Speaker 1: It's looting and rioting. They lit a police station, the 403 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 1: third Precinct in Minneapolis. They lit on fire and the mayor, 404 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,800 Speaker 1: who I mean this is This is another moment in Tommy, 405 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:32,920 Speaker 1: you realize what what bad leadership really means. You know, 406 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 1: what it means to have people in charge who are 407 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 1: just who are just moronic. The mayor abandoned the site. 408 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 1: Oh he spoke about it. We can hear him play 409 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:51,400 Speaker 1: clip five. Please. After receiving real time information from our 410 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 1: Chief Ordondo, and after having numerous phone calls with him 411 00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 1: regarding the evolving situation at the Third Precinct, it became 412 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:11,199 Speaker 1: clear that there were imminent threats to both officers and public, 413 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:20,159 Speaker 1: and the danger was The danger became necessary, and I 414 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 1: made the decision to evacuate the Third Precinct. The symbolism 415 00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 1: of a building cannot outweigh the importance of life of 416 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 1: our officers or the public. We could not risk serious 417 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:43,399 Speaker 1: injury to anyone, and we will continue to patrol the 418 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:49,640 Speaker 1: Third Precinct entirely. We will continue to do our jobs 419 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 1: in that area. Burning a police precinct to the ground 420 00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 1: without a fight, that's what happened in Minneapolis. And I'm 421 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:09,560 Speaker 1: so sorry for our our wonderful listeners up in Minneapolis. 422 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:13,399 Speaker 1: You know KTLK has has put us on in Minneapolis, 423 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,200 Speaker 1: Saint Paul, and I know a lot of you listening 424 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 1: to this right now, You've got to be thinking what 425 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 1: comes next, What comes next, what's going to happen to 426 00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:27,359 Speaker 1: this this city, What's going to happen if the people 427 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:32,399 Speaker 1: who have a monopoly on violence in the state are 428 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:34,879 Speaker 1: supposed to have a monopoli and violence, refuse to use 429 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 1: it to protect law, order, property and safety. They run away. 430 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:45,000 Speaker 1: They don't want to upset the loaders too much. Minneapolis. Unfortunately, KTLK, 431 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 1: you're you're finding out right now during these riots. What 432 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,119 Speaker 1: New York has also learned during the COVID lockdown that 433 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 1: when there's a crisis that requires leadership with resolve, courage, 434 00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 1: and good judgment, week utterly ineffectual far left wing mayor 435 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 1: is a huge liability that gets people hurt and destroys things. 436 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 1: Your mayor was not the same way that mayor build 437 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: the Blasio in New York was not up for the 438 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:21,200 Speaker 1: onslaught of COVID nineteen and the institution of these lockdowns 439 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:26,719 Speaker 1: and his tyrannical, stupid rules. Your mayor for the up 440 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:30,200 Speaker 1: for the last here at all. There's probably going to 441 00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 1: be more protests. There were other cities across the country 442 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 1: that had violent protests. Here in New York there are 443 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 1: over seventy people arrested. Not too far from where I'm 444 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 1: doing this show right now, there were protests over George 445 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 1: Floyd's death, and I would wonder, at what point are 446 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:51,000 Speaker 1: we allowed to ask even for those who are protesting 447 00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:56,679 Speaker 1: and not us who are rioting, or rioters who are looting. 448 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:04,880 Speaker 1: What do they want if it's just to express rage? Okay, well, 449 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:08,639 Speaker 1: what are the outer limits of that? Do they just 450 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:12,440 Speaker 1: get to set the boundary as they see fit. Is 451 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:16,880 Speaker 1: there something that they want that's a change in the system. 452 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 1: Are they really going to pretend that there's a tremendous 453 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:26,680 Speaker 1: risk of death from law enforcement in the United States 454 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 1: for anyone, including African American males, because the data shows, 455 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:39,440 Speaker 1: without any question, that's just not true. Not true. In 456 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:45,280 Speaker 1: any given year in the United States, you have under 457 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:52,440 Speaker 1: a hundred local law enforcement involved shootings that are under 458 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 1: any kind of a suspicious or questionable circumstances when you 459 00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 1: start to dig into the data, and in some years 460 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 1: it's more like forty or fifty. We're a country of 461 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 1: three hundred and twenty million people. There are literally millions 462 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 1: and millions of interactions between civilians and police every year. Now, 463 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:18,879 Speaker 1: when something bad happens, it should be punished. And this 464 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:23,280 Speaker 1: looks like an egregious abuse of police power. And that 465 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:26,720 Speaker 1: has been as close to the consensus opinion on this 466 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 1: issue as you could find on anything. I have not 467 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:34,200 Speaker 1: heard a single person of reputation, a single person with 468 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:37,120 Speaker 1: any kind of voice in public affairs who has expressed 469 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 1: anything other than horror at George Floyd's death. They've already 470 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 1: fired these officers. They are going to be facing charges. 471 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 1: We do have a system in place. What is really 472 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 1: the expectation that there will never be with the seven 473 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 1: or eight hundred thousand cops that are on the job 474 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 1: across the country, no one is going to exceed their 475 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 1: their lawful authority, that no one's going to engage in 476 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: lethal force now, Rember. There's also there are more granted 477 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 1: when you add it up on a per capita basis, 478 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:14,160 Speaker 1: that changes the story a bit. But there are more 479 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:17,480 Speaker 1: people who are white who are killed by law enforcement 480 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:21,200 Speaker 1: every year than any other race. So you have more 481 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 1: white people who are shot by cops every year than 482 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 1: any other race in the aggregate. Now, of course, the 483 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 1: African American community is only about thirteen percent overall of 484 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 1: the population, but and has a disproportionate share of lethal 485 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 1: encounters with law enforcement. And look, the FBI statistics bring 486 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 1: up a whole host of other issues about law enforcement 487 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 1: and disproportionate contact between certain communities and cops, and what 488 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 1: do we do about all of this. But let's just 489 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 1: understand with complete clarity across all racial lines, law enforcement 490 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 1: is not an imminent lethal threat to people in the 491 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:09,000 Speaker 1: United States, and not even close. Now does that mean 492 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 1: that bad things never happened and people never get killed? 493 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 1: Of course not. I told you about the article that 494 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:16,520 Speaker 1: I wrote. Well, I got a lot of conservative criticism, 495 00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 1: although they were wrong. I was right, so I don't 496 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 1: really care. But conservatives, some of them, the smart ones, 497 00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:26,920 Speaker 1: didn't criticize me over the Officer Brailsford shooting in Arizona, 498 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 1: which was just to me, it was just a murder 499 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:32,880 Speaker 1: caught on camera, and that was some you know, terrified, 500 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 1: young young white guy who just got got blown away 501 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:39,440 Speaker 1: by two cops where they are fifteens in a hallway 502 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:42,120 Speaker 1: and because they were on a power trip. Right, I mean, 503 00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:45,880 Speaker 1: so bad things happen, We get that. But what is 504 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 1: the point of pretending that what's going on in Minneapolis 505 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:54,400 Speaker 1: is anything other than a cynical excuse for rage from 506 00:30:55,000 --> 00:31:00,160 Speaker 1: groups of people who are very, very angry and you're 507 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 1: responsible and in many cases hateful, right, Antifa is on 508 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:09,320 Speaker 1: the scene, pretend I'm sure they think this is somehow 509 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,640 Speaker 1: a Trump thing. Right. But you know Antifa, which is 510 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 1: largely you know, white suburban liberals wearing you know, black 511 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 1: face bandanas and masks and things like this and running 512 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 1: around causing mayhem. And there are locals, many of whom 513 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 1: you can see from the videos that are circulating, who 514 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 1: are African American, who are destroying things and looting things. 515 00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 1: And you know, so there are a whole bunch of 516 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:39,600 Speaker 1: bad actors at work here. But we should all be 517 00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 1: united in just the condemnation of this. And yet Don Lemon, 518 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 1: who is you know, a guy that really understands, you know, 519 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 1: the sense of things on the street anywhere, never mind 520 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:55,160 Speaker 1: the street in Minneapolis. Yeah, he's really in He's really 521 00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 1: in touch with what it's like for struggling, struggling folks 522 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:01,480 Speaker 1: out there. Lives in a multimillion dollar mansion on the 523 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:05,680 Speaker 1: Upper West Side, has a mansion in Bridge I think 524 00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 1: it's Bridgehampton or sag Harbor. Very very fancy in a 525 00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 1: multimillion dollar home there. Yeah, really tough for him. You know, 526 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 1: he's really in the he's in the struggle. You know, 527 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:21,640 Speaker 1: Don Lemon understands the economic and financial struggles of folks 528 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,720 Speaker 1: and he but he wants to tell you why people 529 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 1: are rioting. Let's go to Don Lemon and CNN seeing 530 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:32,040 Speaker 1: it in such a trash heat play sixteen. If you 531 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:35,120 Speaker 1: read some of what people are saying, and if you 532 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 1: watch some of conservative media, you would think people are 533 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 1: mourning a target when you look at the pictures and 534 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 1: what they are focusing on. Okay, so people should not 535 00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:49,800 Speaker 1: be rioting. Do you understand what is behind that rioting? 536 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 1: People should not be looting? Do you understand what's behind 537 00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 1: that looting? Do you have as much outrage for that 538 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,680 Speaker 1: or for a man on the ground with a police 539 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 1: officer with his knee on his neck for eight nine minutes? 540 00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 1: What are you more outraged by? What matters? More? As 541 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 1: you said, a highly insured store. No one wants to 542 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:14,880 Speaker 1: lose their business. Don't get me wrong, and don't twist 543 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:17,960 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. There's all there's nuance, and I know 544 00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:21,160 Speaker 1: people will say, oh, well, don't say that I'm encouraging riding. 545 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 1: I'm not encouraging riding. I'm trying to explain to you 546 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:28,280 Speaker 1: what is going on there. Only sounds like he's looking 547 00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 1: for some rationalization for it. Do I understand what? What 548 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 1: you know? Maybe we could interview some of the rioters 549 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:39,920 Speaker 1: and the looters. Why are you doing this because we're upset? 550 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:41,720 Speaker 1: What about this store? What does the store do to you? 551 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:45,640 Speaker 1: What do the AutoZone do to you? What do this 552 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 1: sporting goods store or the Target or whatever it is 553 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 1: that you're loo What does that place do to you? 554 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 1: And why do you think breaking the windows, the doors 555 00:33:56,840 --> 00:34:01,200 Speaker 1: and stealing private property? Why do you think that's in 556 00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 1: any way helpful or even symbolic in a way that 557 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:09,440 Speaker 1: is useful? Did you any want to ask them that question? 558 00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:10,960 Speaker 1: Didn't want to try to come up with an answer? Then, 559 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:13,440 Speaker 1: of course, what is the rage behind all this? Is 560 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 1: Minneapolis such a horrible place, so oppressive, no one can 561 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 1: go outside. You know, we've been through real tyranny from 562 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:25,759 Speaker 1: law enforcement here for months and there's been not really, 563 00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:28,239 Speaker 1: you know, all that much outrage about it. I mean, 564 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 1: you know, people telling you you can't leave your home. 565 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:35,279 Speaker 1: That actually feels like tyranny. So those who suffer, specifically 566 00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:38,759 Speaker 1: from an incident like George Floyd, I can understand, Yeah, 567 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:42,239 Speaker 1: that's it's horrific that cop, based on what we've seen, 568 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 1: should go to prison for a very long time. Everyone's 569 00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:46,879 Speaker 1: saying that, But other people just get to say, well, 570 00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 1: I'm angry too, I'm gonna go break things. Nope, it's unacceptable. 571 00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:57,600 Speaker 1: You're in the freedom hunt. This is the Buck Sexton 572 00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:06,440 Speaker 1: Show podcast.

Weakness is pointing your finger at somebody else 574 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:16,280 Speaker 1: during a time of crisis. Donald Trump knows nothing about 575 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:20,560 Speaker 1: the strength of Minneapolis. We are strong as hell. Is 576 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:23,360 Speaker 1: this a difficult time period, yes, but you'd better be 577 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:27,960 Speaker 1: damned sure that we're gonna get through this. Uh.

He called off his 580 00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:37,880 Speaker 1: law enforcement officers. He called off his cops from defending 581 00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:41,000 Speaker 1: their precinct.

Oh, the worst really, 625 00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:02,840 Speaker 1: really and so many ways is the absolute worst host 626 00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:06,279 Speaker 1: on certainly the worst host at CNN. I don't know 627 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:10,000 Speaker 1: if we could say all Cable News. Um. So so 628 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:15,439 Speaker 1: there's that, uh, there is that indeed.

Uh um, 634 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 1: But let's let's talk about because you know Zucker Selter, 635 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:43,399 Speaker 1: they're they're ruining CNN. I mean, Selter's just a little 636 00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:46,719 Speaker 1: little hatchet man. But Jeff Zucker has has destroyed the 637 00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:50,800 Speaker 1: reputation whatever it was, of the the cable news network. 638 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:53,279 Speaker 1: You know, I listened to the old days from back 639 00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:54,560 Speaker 1: in the old days, and I think they brought it 640 00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:57,440 Speaker 1: back where they had James Earl Jones, one of the greatest. 641 00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:59,600 Speaker 1: And I'm somebody who really spends a lot of time 642 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:03,239 Speaker 1: thinking about voices because I think it matters. You know, 643 00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:04,480 Speaker 1: if you're gonna spend a lot of time, you know, 644 00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:08,000 Speaker 1: let's end it literally high terrible voice, you're yelling on it. 645 00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:09,840 Speaker 1: That's no fun, right, you don't want to do that. 646 00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:13,440 Speaker 1: Why would you do that? That's that's brutalizing your ears. 647 00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:16,160 Speaker 1: To listen to radio hosts who sound like that. So 648 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:21,440 Speaker 1: I'm somebody who cares about one's voice when you're listening, 649 00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:23,680 Speaker 1: and James Earl Jones has one of the greatest voices 650 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:25,360 Speaker 1: of all time, and he does that. This is I 651 00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:27,279 Speaker 1: can't even I'm not even gonna pretend to do it, 652 00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:29,480 Speaker 1: because it's his version is so much better than anyone 653 00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:32,160 Speaker 1: that I could do. But this is CNN. You know, 654 00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:36,040 Speaker 1: it did. It was always liberal, but it used to 655 00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:40,560 Speaker 1: be an organization that at least felt some obligation to 656 00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:46,480 Speaker 1: pretend it could show respect or at least platform the 657 00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 1: other side a little bit into me. And now that's 658 00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:52,279 Speaker 1: that's all gone, and that's all just a complete joke. 659 00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:54,600 Speaker 1: And that's why I mean the focus here from Stelter 660 00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:58,840 Speaker 1: that a Trump is so slowly the process that a 661 00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:02,959 Speaker 1: Trump is it, Hold on a second, how is Donald 662 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:07,239 Speaker 1: Trump slow? I just had the president interview and and 663 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:10,000 Speaker 1: we we talked about this and he's like, it's a 664 00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:12,040 Speaker 1: horrible situation. And by the way, I'll agree with you. 665 00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:14,160 Speaker 1: You know why I can't do Trump impressions because I 666 00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:18,439 Speaker 1: have too much respect for the man. And that's it's 667 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:20,840 Speaker 1: just it's my heart's not in it. That's the problem. 668 00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:23,000 Speaker 1: My heart's not because everyone else I've been able to 669 00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:24,919 Speaker 1: get a look at my Cuomo that's come out of nowhere. 670 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:28,239 Speaker 1: People love the Cuomo in presidentation. Why why? It is 671 00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:30,840 Speaker 1: a little bit like Christopher Walkin. But it's it's like 672 00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:33,239 Speaker 1: if Christopher Walkin was kind of more thuggish and dumb. 673 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:37,920 Speaker 1: Oh thuggish, you're you're not allowed to say. And by 674 00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:39,520 Speaker 1: the way, I don't I think chrisoph walking is probably 675 00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:42,759 Speaker 1: a nice guy. But you can't say thug. We've seen 676 00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:45,920 Speaker 1: that again from Stelton. Are the president fash thugs? We're 677 00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:48,920 Speaker 1: gonna do this again. We're gonna do this again. We're 678 00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:51,160 Speaker 1: gonna pretend that there are words that we can't use 679 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 1: to describe. If if someone who is a white ANTIFA 680 00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:01,640 Speaker 1: member runs up to US store and breaks in the 681 00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:05,319 Speaker 1: window and throws in a Moltiv cocktail, that person can 682 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:10,799 Speaker 1: be accurately described as a thug. If an African American 683 00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:15,320 Speaker 1: runs into a store with you know, a bandana on 684 00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:19,520 Speaker 1: his face or around his face and steals something after 685 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,319 Speaker 1: breaking the window, that person can be referred to as 686 00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:27,160 Speaker 1: a thug. A thug is a reference irrespective of one's 687 00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:31,239 Speaker 1: ethnic background, or religion or anything else. It's it's a 688 00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:36,399 Speaker 1: reference to bad conduct and it is applicable across the board. 689 00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:38,120 Speaker 1: And this is also where for those of you, in 690 00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:41,960 Speaker 1: case you do not know, the word thug has a 691 00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:46,040 Speaker 1: very interesting derivation. It comes from the period of British 692 00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:50,080 Speaker 1: colonial rule in India. So if anyone should be upset 693 00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:52,279 Speaker 1: about the usage of the term thug, you would think 694 00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:55,960 Speaker 1: it would be Indians, and I mean that in the 695 00:41:56,280 --> 00:42:00,800 Speaker 1: proper sense of people from South Asia, Indians who have 696 00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:06,960 Speaker 1: had this term appropriated from the original Hindu thugi and 697 00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:10,239 Speaker 1: it referred to a death cult. And for those of 698 00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:13,400 Speaker 1: you that are wondering, what do we know about this 699 00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:15,600 Speaker 1: death cauld And though the word initially meant one who 700 00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:19,279 Speaker 1: was a one who engaged in deception, and they were 701 00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:24,400 Speaker 1: a strangulation cult during the period of the British of 702 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:28,880 Speaker 1: the British control of India, and the Brits actually got 703 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:30,840 Speaker 1: rid of them in the in the nineteenth century. The 704 00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:35,279 Speaker 1: Brits tracked them down and they they worshiped a god 705 00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:37,960 Speaker 1: of death. I believe, I actually don't remember the name 706 00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:40,640 Speaker 1: of the god of death. But if you've seen Indiana 707 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:45,920 Speaker 1: Jones and the Temple of Doom, that group that does 708 00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:48,719 Speaker 1: the you know, we must drink the blood of the 709 00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:50,759 Speaker 1: Kalima and all that stuff, right, and the guy like 710 00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:52,920 Speaker 1: rips the heart out of the chest, and the flame 711 00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:55,799 Speaker 1: pit and all that. The lava pit not well flames lava. 712 00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:59,040 Speaker 1: Indiana Jones. The Temple of Doom, I think is clearly 713 00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:02,600 Speaker 1: the worst of the Indiana Jones. There's only three movies 714 00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:05,239 Speaker 1: in the trilogy. If you tell me Shia La buff 715 00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:09,000 Speaker 1: was in an Indiana Jones movie, you have you have 716 00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:11,359 Speaker 1: made a mistake. We just we just wave our hand 717 00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:14,200 Speaker 1: and say, no, there was no Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. 718 00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:16,680 Speaker 1: Do you agree with me, Producer Mark, that the Temple 719 00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:19,279 Speaker 1: of Doom is the worst of the three? Oh? Yes, 720 00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:21,640 Speaker 1: I do agree with that. See, I like what I 721 00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:23,520 Speaker 1: can get Producer Mark to actually agree with me on things. 722 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:26,840 Speaker 1: I won't ask you if if Raiders of Last Ark 723 00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:29,440 Speaker 1: or Last Crusade is the best, because I think that's 724 00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:32,480 Speaker 1: a tough call. I think it's a little bit like saying, 725 00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:36,640 Speaker 1: you know who who wins in a fight? Uh, you know, 726 00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:40,239 Speaker 1: Wolverine or the Incredible Hulk. Call, I guess probably the 727 00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:45,080 Speaker 1: Incredible Hulk, right, The Hulk wins that one? Right? Yeah, Yeah, 728 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:46,880 Speaker 1: this is some of the I'm just this is a 729 00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:49,399 Speaker 1: total digression, but it's Friday, so I feel like I'm 730 00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:56,520 Speaker 1: allowed to have digressions. Some of the Avengers, I feel 731 00:43:56,520 --> 00:43:58,520 Speaker 1: like they're true superheroes, and some of them, I'm like, 732 00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:02,040 Speaker 1: why is this person that's superhero? You know, there's like 733 00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:06,080 Speaker 1: a there's a guy who's got like a metal wings 734 00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:07,960 Speaker 1: he flies around with him on or whatever. I'm like, 735 00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:10,479 Speaker 1: you're a superhero. You're a guy that has really cool 736 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,200 Speaker 1: military equipment. I don't know if that makes you and 737 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:15,279 Speaker 1: the other guy who's really good with the bow and arrow. 738 00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:18,759 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I've I've actually fired many many a bow 739 00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:22,880 Speaker 1: and arrow, and you'd much rather have a gun. I 740 00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:26,800 Speaker 1: can tell you that, right, I don't really have guns 741 00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:29,680 Speaker 1: in the in the Marvel Cinematic universe. Well, you know, 742 00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:33,120 Speaker 1: a laser then or something like that. And the reason 743 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:35,440 Speaker 1: I think you're referring to iron Man with the wings 744 00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:37,520 Speaker 1: and no, no, no, no, no, no, iron Man's cool, 745 00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:39,920 Speaker 1: Tony Stark is a great iron Man would literally be 746 00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 1: the definition of somebody who doesn't technically have superhowers. He 747 00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:47,359 Speaker 1: built it, but his suit is really cool. I'm talking 748 00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:49,840 Speaker 1: about the guy. I think his name is Falcon. No, 749 00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:53,759 Speaker 1: his name's Escaping Men's and not Falcon. No, it's not 750 00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 1: a producer. Nick might weigh in here, but it's anyway, 751 00:44:58,120 --> 00:45:00,880 Speaker 1: he's I saw him and went to Soldiers See producer. 752 00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:02,560 Speaker 1: Mark convinced me to actually watch some of these movies. 753 00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:07,320 Speaker 1: I watched win Her Soldier's Hawkeye Hawkeye hawk Eye. Oh no, 754 00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:09,239 Speaker 1: that's the bow and arrow guy. Yeah, Falcon is the 755 00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:11,120 Speaker 1: guy with the wings. I'm right, Falcon is the guy 756 00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:12,480 Speaker 1: with the wings, hawk eyes, the guy with the bow 757 00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:14,920 Speaker 1: hawk eyes, the guy couldn't remember. Yeah, I mean, come on, 758 00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:18,200 Speaker 1: you run around with a bow. You got like monster 759 00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:21,279 Speaker 1: alien people that are blowing up worlds in space, and 760 00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:22,960 Speaker 1: you're gonna send the dude after them with a bow 761 00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 1: and arrow. I mean, is he gonna like crawl up 762 00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:27,719 Speaker 1: a tree, stand first, and you know, put out some 763 00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:30,239 Speaker 1: make sure he's got the right camo on. I mean, 764 00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:32,520 Speaker 1: this is a surch I mean, it's like extreme bone arrow. 765 00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:36,120 Speaker 1: It's like bone arrow with superpowers. Yeah. I don't know 766 00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:38,920 Speaker 1: about that. And it's it's supposed to not be realistic. 767 00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:43,560 Speaker 1: It's a superhero movie. I just I just hope that 768 00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:46,560 Speaker 1: the uh, the Motor City Madman doesn't hear me talking 769 00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:50,000 Speaker 1: smack about bow and arrows. For superheroes. He's gonna be 770 00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:51,360 Speaker 1: like Buck, I'll show you we can do with a 771 00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:56,760 Speaker 1: bow and arrow. Um. Anyway, so where I completely derailed 772 00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:58,719 Speaker 1: us here for a second. Oh so I'm making fun 773 00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:02,120 Speaker 1: of Brian Stelterer thug cult Indiana Jones Temple of Doom 774 00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:03,960 Speaker 1: if you didn't know, that's where that's believed to where 775 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:07,200 Speaker 1: it comes from. Yeah, they used to strangle people travelers 776 00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:08,759 Speaker 1: in the side of the road and they believe that 777 00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:14,120 Speaker 1: it was for their their god of death, and it was. 778 00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:16,600 Speaker 1: They're really a bad bunch. Some estimates where they killed 779 00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:19,000 Speaker 1: up to I think it was a million people over 780 00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:23,680 Speaker 1: the course of the nineteenth century, So bad stuff. Anyway, 781 00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:26,960 Speaker 1: Thug is not a racist term, and they're going to 782 00:46:27,040 --> 00:46:29,359 Speaker 1: say that, They're going to pretend that this is now 783 00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:33,719 Speaker 1: just because they want to. Look. The media benefits, The 784 00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:39,840 Speaker 1: left wing Democrat media benefits from narratives of racial division 785 00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:43,640 Speaker 1: because they position themselves the people who have the platforms, 786 00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:46,719 Speaker 1: who work for the legacy media outlets, They position themselves 787 00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:51,200 Speaker 1: as the truth tellers. They positioned themselves as the not 788 00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 1: racist people, of course, and they are also by all 789 00:46:56,080 --> 00:47:02,439 Speaker 1: of their acts of you know, on air penance they're 790 00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:05,920 Speaker 1: addressing their their own For the ones who are white, 791 00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:09,399 Speaker 1: they're addressing their white privilege in real time on TV. 792 00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:13,480 Speaker 1: This is you know the problem with with so much 793 00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:15,239 Speaker 1: of this is that I can assure you this will 794 00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:18,760 Speaker 1: all lead to nothing but destruction and angst and misery, 795 00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:23,200 Speaker 1: and then we'll be forgotten. It's just a question now 796 00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:28,040 Speaker 1: of how large the toll is, what the cost really 797 00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:31,640 Speaker 1: ends up being, and hopefully no one loses their lives 798 00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:36,760 Speaker 1: in the protest that will come. But this expression of rage, 799 00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:40,040 Speaker 1: as they're calling it, does not result in better policies, 800 00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:44,840 Speaker 1: does not result in the police doing their jobs differently, 801 00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:49,640 Speaker 1: because there's always going to be the possibility of one 802 00:47:50,320 --> 00:47:54,440 Speaker 1: bad officer. There's always going to be someone who is 803 00:47:54,560 --> 00:47:57,880 Speaker 1: evil who in any organization. They're evil people in media, 804 00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:01,880 Speaker 1: I guess start naming some names people. Now, they haven't 805 00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:04,440 Speaker 1: killed anybody that I know of. Well, let me think 806 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:07,320 Speaker 1: about that. Well, yeah, they haven't killed anybody that I 807 00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:13,120 Speaker 1: know of. But they're bad human beings and that's never 808 00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:16,480 Speaker 1: going to change. So if you have this expression of 809 00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:21,680 Speaker 1: outrage and you don't have some ask or request or 810 00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:24,320 Speaker 1: demand or however you want to phrase it, you know, 811 00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:26,640 Speaker 1: what do you want to go differently. Here, this guy 812 00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:31,320 Speaker 1: is facing charges. He will likely spend the rest of 813 00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:36,279 Speaker 1: his life or close to it in a cell. No 814 00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:38,600 Speaker 1: cop that I've heard talking about this has said anything 815 00:48:38,640 --> 00:48:42,839 Speaker 1: other than this is terrible and awful. And a lot 816 00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:47,880 Speaker 1: of us watching that video of George Floyd, we're thinking, 817 00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:51,359 Speaker 1: if only I could have been there, maybe I could 818 00:48:51,400 --> 00:48:54,399 Speaker 1: have convinced the officer in time, or maybe I could 819 00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:57,440 Speaker 1: have even thrown myself into the scene and push the 820 00:48:57,560 --> 00:48:59,239 Speaker 1: officer off him, just to get him en off air, 821 00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:01,680 Speaker 1: to keep him alive. You get arrested for that, obviously, 822 00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:03,960 Speaker 1: but it would have been that would have been the 823 00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:07,200 Speaker 1: moral thing to do in those circumstances. That would have 824 00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:13,400 Speaker 1: been righteous and courageous. That's that's how evil that action 825 00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:16,160 Speaker 1: by that law enforcement officer was. You breaking the law 826 00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:20,160 Speaker 1: to stop him would have been the righteous thing. But 827 00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:24,720 Speaker 1: burning down the buildings of innocent people, the businesses, destroying property, 828 00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:28,640 Speaker 1: throwing rocks and assaulting police officers who are just doing 829 00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:32,840 Speaker 1: their jobs, throwing mollets off cocktails at them, that's unjust. 830 00:49:32,920 --> 00:49:35,919 Speaker 1: It's immoral, and the media should speak with one voice 831 00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:38,200 Speaker 1: and the condemnation of this and not do this whole 832 00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:42,719 Speaker 1: game of well, sure, riots and looting is bad, but 833 00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:45,480 Speaker 1: I can kind of understand why this is happening. And 834 00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:48,160 Speaker 1: then oh, let's talk about the history of racism in 835 00:49:48,200 --> 00:49:53,440 Speaker 1: the context and calling racism a public health emergency? What 836 00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:56,799 Speaker 1: does that even mean? This is what libs have been doing. Now, 837 00:49:56,840 --> 00:49:59,040 Speaker 1: what is that supposed to mean? It It doesn't even 838 00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:02,480 Speaker 1: make It doesn't even make sense. How do we address 839 00:50:02,520 --> 00:50:06,560 Speaker 1: that as a health emergency? This is something that people 840 00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:09,680 Speaker 1: say because they believe it sounds good, but have put 841 00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:14,560 Speaker 1: no thought into it beyond that initial impulse to virtue, 842 00:50:14,719 --> 00:50:19,160 Speaker 1: virtue signal and of course to bash your perceived political opponents. 843 00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:23,480 Speaker 1: That's what's going on here. No good will come of this. 844 00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:29,720 Speaker 1: You're in the freedom Hunt. This is the Buck Sexton 845 00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:37,160 Speaker 1: Show podcast. I can't leave this out. There's something that 846 00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:40,680 Speaker 1: came up last night in the midst of all of 847 00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:46,960 Speaker 1: this just noise and the mess and everything we're seeing 848 00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:54,480 Speaker 1: in Minneapolis, something was said that I think raised a 849 00:50:54,560 --> 00:50:59,120 Speaker 1: lot of eyebrows. You have the Hennepin County Attorney Michael Freeman, 850 00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:02,319 Speaker 1: who was talking about the George Floyd video. Now, now 851 00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:05,840 Speaker 1: up to this point, one aspect of this crisis, and 852 00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:08,000 Speaker 1: it is a crisis when you have over a hundred 853 00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:12,400 Speaker 1: businesses destroyed, burned down. You've got police letting a police precinct, 854 00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:15,440 Speaker 1: and think about the message that sends to bad guys 855 00:51:15,480 --> 00:51:17,759 Speaker 1: all over the country. Right the police preescinct gets burned 856 00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:23,480 Speaker 1: down to the grounds. There's obvious, an obvious crisis happening here. 857 00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:29,000 Speaker 1: But all along we've been thinking this will be dealt 858 00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:31,279 Speaker 1: with by the judicial system in a way where there 859 00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:36,200 Speaker 1: will be punishment for those who killed George Floyd. Here's 860 00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:40,000 Speaker 1: something I can't really imagine what, but here is what 861 00:51:40,160 --> 00:51:44,480 Speaker 1: the Hennepin County Attorney Michael Freeman said of the video 862 00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:50,640 Speaker 1: and some other unspecified stuff Place six. I think part 863 00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:52,880 Speaker 1: of the problem is, Sir, the dal goes on for 864 00:51:53,000 --> 00:51:56,600 Speaker 1: seven minutes. He is clearly struggling to breathe during that time. 865 00:51:57,400 --> 00:51:59,360 Speaker 1: And I think people will be hard for us to 866 00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:04,239 Speaker 1: understand how you can't bring charges, at least against the 867 00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:09,959 Speaker 1: officer who had his knee on that man's neck. It's 868 00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:15,880 Speaker 1: a violation of my ethics to talk and evaluate evidence 869 00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:19,360 Speaker 1: before we announce our charging decision, and I will not 870 00:52:19,520 --> 00:52:23,800 Speaker 1: do that. I will say this that that video is 871 00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:27,920 Speaker 1: graphic and horrific and terrible, and no person should do that. 872 00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:31,360 Speaker 1: But my job in the end is to prove that 873 00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:34,840 Speaker 1: he violated a criminal statute. And there is other evidence 874 00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:38,480 Speaker 1: that does not support a criminal charge. We need to 875 00:52:38,600 --> 00:52:41,320 Speaker 1: wait through all of that evidence to come through a 876 00:52:41,360 --> 00:52:45,120 Speaker 1: immediate meaningful determination, and we are doing that to the 877 00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:49,440 Speaker 1: best of our ability. You heard it, and this was 878 00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:52,880 Speaker 1: I mean, if this becomes what it sounds like, it 879 00:52:52,960 --> 00:52:55,440 Speaker 1: could be where there's a real debate over the possible 880 00:52:55,480 --> 00:52:58,959 Speaker 1: criminality of the officer here, I'm not saying we're there. 881 00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:02,520 Speaker 1: Do not consumer misunderstand what I'm saying. But if we 882 00:53:02,680 --> 00:53:05,800 Speaker 1: get to that. You know, with Eric Garner, for example, 883 00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:12,000 Speaker 1: he had a heart condition. The takedown itself, you know, 884 00:53:12,080 --> 00:53:14,080 Speaker 1: they didn't see he didn't sit there and strangle him 885 00:53:14,120 --> 00:53:16,160 Speaker 1: for eight minutes. The guy took him down around the neck. 886 00:53:16,239 --> 00:53:20,960 Speaker 1: And then Garner, as he was arrested, had had cardiac arrest. 887 00:53:22,040 --> 00:53:25,440 Speaker 1: That's not the same thing as as strangling somebody over 888 00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:28,160 Speaker 1: a course of minutes as they're screaming that you know 889 00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:32,080 Speaker 1: that they aren't able to breathe. It's not the same, right, 890 00:53:32,280 --> 00:53:34,759 Speaker 1: But what is he referring to here with evidence that 891 00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:37,759 Speaker 1: does not support a criminal charge. I don't know. The 892 00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:41,960 Speaker 1: only speculation I could have here, and this is speculation. 893 00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:44,800 Speaker 1: I do not have any evidence of this would be 894 00:53:45,040 --> 00:53:49,400 Speaker 1: perhaps there was an underlying medical condition that was exacerbated 895 00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:54,440 Speaker 1: by the knee on the neck. However, even in that circumstance, 896 00:53:54,480 --> 00:53:56,360 Speaker 1: it would seem to me that a knee on the 897 00:53:56,520 --> 00:54:01,120 Speaker 1: neck is excessive force, and if that excessive force continuously 898 00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:04,719 Speaker 1: in this context leads to death, it's still manslaughter. But 899 00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:10,279 Speaker 1: I'm wondering what this county attorney is referring to with 900 00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:12,279 Speaker 1: evidence that does not support Maybe he just meant that 901 00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:14,000 Speaker 1: in a very generic you know, we have to look 902 00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:16,600 Speaker 1: at all the evidence and maybe evidence, but it sounded 903 00:54:16,640 --> 00:54:18,359 Speaker 1: to me like he was suggesting there might be something 904 00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:20,719 Speaker 1: else we'll have to see. But if that's the case, 905 00:54:20,880 --> 00:54:24,520 Speaker 1: this thing is going to get really intense.

All right, everybody, we are joined by Congressman 909 00:54:37,560 --> 00:54:41,439 Speaker 1: Matt Gates from down in Florida. He's also the host 910 00:54:41,520 --> 00:54:45,399 Speaker 1: of the Hot Takes podcast with Matt Gates. Congressman, great 911 00:54:45,400 --> 00:54:48,719 Speaker 1: to have you on the show, sir, Oh thanks so much, Buck, 912 00:54:48,800 --> 00:54:51,400 Speaker 1: and I think The last time I saw you in person, 913 00:54:51,960 --> 00:54:56,399 Speaker 1: you were hosting the television show Rising here in Washington, DC. 914 00:54:56,960 --> 00:55:01,480 Speaker 1: It was like December eighteenth, twenty eighteen. Democrats had just 915 00:55:01,680 --> 00:55:04,239 Speaker 1: taken power. You asked me on the show what I 916 00:55:04,320 --> 00:55:08,040 Speaker 1: thought would be the principle objective during the during their 917 00:55:08,120 --> 00:55:11,280 Speaker 1: time and control of the House of Representatives. I predicted, 918 00:55:11,480 --> 00:55:15,280 Speaker 1: regardless of the facts, regardless of the rationale or basis, 919 00:55:15,520 --> 00:55:18,960 Speaker 1: that the real agenda of Democrats would be impeachment. And 920 00:55:19,280 --> 00:55:21,120 Speaker 1: we made all kinds of news back then, Buck, We 921 00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:23,239 Speaker 1: got all kind of news stories written up about that 922 00:55:23,320 --> 00:55:27,480 Speaker 1: interview that a Republican was predicting impeachment that early. Unfortunately, 923 00:55:27,560 --> 00:55:29,840 Speaker 1: that turned out to be correct in that it was 924 00:55:29,920 --> 00:55:33,680 Speaker 1: just a totally delegitimizing effort from start to finish. But 925 00:55:34,200 --> 00:55:36,040 Speaker 1: it's good to be back with you. Hopefully we'll break 926 00:55:36,040 --> 00:55:39,160 Speaker 1: some more news, absolutely, man, and I recall this so 927 00:55:39,440 --> 00:55:42,800 Speaker 1: good for you on being right. And fortunately the president 928 00:55:42,880 --> 00:55:48,280 Speaker 1: weathered the storm of that sham impeachment quite well. But nonetheless, 929 00:55:48,360 --> 00:55:52,200 Speaker 1: now we're in the midst of this coronavirus epidemic and 930 00:55:52,840 --> 00:55:55,760 Speaker 1: really the response epidemic too. I mean, what the government 931 00:55:56,040 --> 00:55:58,960 Speaker 1: has done in some places, you know, I want to 932 00:55:59,200 --> 00:56:01,120 Speaker 1: you said, you're taking victory lab. It feels for a 933 00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:02,839 Speaker 1: lot of us. I'm up here in New York City, 934 00:56:03,360 --> 00:56:06,440 Speaker 1: like Florida gets to take, and the governor there and 935 00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:08,360 Speaker 1: the folks in charge get to take a bit of 936 00:56:08,360 --> 00:56:10,920 Speaker 1: a victory lab too, in terms of being really the 937 00:56:11,080 --> 00:56:13,800 Speaker 1: model for how to handle this and how to reopen 938 00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:16,200 Speaker 1: I just want to know, what have you seen in 939 00:56:16,360 --> 00:56:18,600 Speaker 1: your home state? Why did it work out so well? 940 00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:23,440 Speaker 1: Relatively speaking, of course, Yeah, the biggest difference is that 941 00:56:23,600 --> 00:56:27,480 Speaker 1: some governors followed the news cycle and other governors followed 942 00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:31,080 Speaker 1: the evidence. Ron de Santis made a series of really 943 00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:34,120 Speaker 1: good choices as the governor of Florida that resulted in 944 00:56:34,320 --> 00:56:38,880 Speaker 1: a lower intubation rate, the hospitalization rate, and death rate. Meanwhile, 945 00:56:39,200 --> 00:56:42,120 Speaker 1: the actual choices made by folks like Governor Cuomo in 946 00:56:42,200 --> 00:56:45,640 Speaker 1: New York really put vulnerable people at risk. You're in Florida. 947 00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:50,040 Speaker 1: We didn't discharge people from the hospital with potential coronavirus 948 00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:54,000 Speaker 1: back into nursing homes and long term care facilities. I mean, 949 00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:56,640 Speaker 1: we've got a lot of senior citizens in Florida. We're 950 00:56:56,640 --> 00:56:59,640 Speaker 1: sort of God's waiting room down in the Sunshine State, 951 00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:04,480 Speaker 1: and it has helped our people to not be so 952 00:57:04,920 --> 00:57:10,360 Speaker 1: I guess overly just you know, responsive to the calls 953 00:57:10,400 --> 00:57:14,520 Speaker 1: for eighty thousand ventilators and entirely new hospitals built. There's 954 00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:17,320 Speaker 1: also some specific things we're doing in Florida that are 955 00:57:17,400 --> 00:57:20,800 Speaker 1: helping us snuff out some of these hotspots. We're doing 956 00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:24,840 Speaker 1: sentinel testing, we're doing surveillance testing, or instead of just 957 00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:29,800 Speaker 1: waiting around for a problem to emerge, we're actually trying 958 00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:32,160 Speaker 1: to figure out, you know, as it's happening, where we 959 00:57:32,240 --> 00:57:35,440 Speaker 1: can deploy the most resources. So our governor stopped flights 960 00:57:35,480 --> 00:57:37,680 Speaker 1: in from New York. He stopped some of those throw 961 00:57:37,760 --> 00:57:40,560 Speaker 1: folks from Louisiana from coming over and going to the 962 00:57:40,640 --> 00:57:43,320 Speaker 1: beach in my beautiful district for a while. I think 963 00:57:43,400 --> 00:57:46,680 Speaker 1: that that type of an evidence based approach has been 964 00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:50,080 Speaker 1: more effective than you know, like the daily press conferences, 965 00:57:50,160 --> 00:57:54,200 Speaker 1: but also rapidly rising daily death tolls in places like 966 00:57:54,320 --> 00:57:57,040 Speaker 1: New York. Speaking of Congress in Matt and Gates, a 967 00:57:57,120 --> 00:58:01,520 Speaker 1: Florida also a host of the Hot Takes podcast, Congressman, 968 00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:04,680 Speaker 1: what do you think about the stages that we're in 969 00:58:04,880 --> 00:58:08,320 Speaker 1: right now for the reopening and what needs to happen 970 00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:11,440 Speaker 1: at the congressional level. I mean, you know, Congress has passed, 971 00:58:11,720 --> 00:58:13,600 Speaker 1: There's been a lot of spending going on. Some of 972 00:58:13,680 --> 00:58:16,080 Speaker 1: it understandable, some of it seems a little more suspect. 973 00:58:16,640 --> 00:58:18,840 Speaker 1: What needs to happen to get the economy back into 974 00:58:18,880 --> 00:58:21,760 Speaker 1: You know that the President just spoke to me earlier 975 00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:24,280 Speaker 1: about the transition to greatness. You know, we had him 976 00:58:24,320 --> 00:58:27,960 Speaker 1: on the show. So how do how do we get there? 977 00:58:28,040 --> 00:58:30,480 Speaker 1: And what's Congress's role in that given where we are 978 00:58:30,600 --> 00:58:34,560 Speaker 1: right now. Well, first, I'll say it is quite something. 979 00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:36,880 Speaker 1: How much as a fan of yours, the president is 980 00:58:37,040 --> 00:58:39,240 Speaker 1: sometimes I'll just wake up and it'll be like thirty 981 00:58:39,320 --> 00:58:43,280 Speaker 1: four Buck Sexton retweets from the President, So obviously you're 982 00:58:43,600 --> 00:58:46,040 Speaker 1: making an impact, and he's a big fan of the show. 983 00:58:46,880 --> 00:58:50,560 Speaker 1: I will say that when you pour nine trillion dollars 984 00:58:50,640 --> 00:58:53,880 Speaker 1: on into the economy, as we've done through appropriating funds 985 00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:58,000 Speaker 1: and FED policy, that is a shock to any system, 986 00:58:58,120 --> 00:59:00,439 Speaker 1: right and we hope it sort of shocks us back 987 00:59:00,640 --> 00:59:04,800 Speaker 1: into a vibrant economy like we had prior to this 988 00:59:05,280 --> 00:59:09,600 Speaker 1: terrible coronavirus. The expectation I have is that it will 989 00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:13,040 Speaker 1: take some time to get that properly deployed I don't 990 00:59:13,120 --> 00:59:15,680 Speaker 1: think that we just, you know, immediately snap back. I 991 00:59:15,760 --> 00:59:18,640 Speaker 1: think that there's going to be that transitionary period, and 992 00:59:18,640 --> 00:59:20,200 Speaker 1: I think one of the most important things we can 993 00:59:20,240 --> 00:59:23,560 Speaker 1: do is past sensible liability reforms. You know, right now, 994 00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:26,800 Speaker 1: there are some businesses who are concerned about the cadre 995 00:59:26,920 --> 00:59:32,919 Speaker 1: of lawyers assembling to feed off of this novel circumstance 996 00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:35,200 Speaker 1: that none of us have ever encountered before, and so 997 00:59:35,400 --> 00:59:38,360 Speaker 1: by having some reasonable liability reform, I think that helps 998 00:59:38,440 --> 00:59:41,920 Speaker 1: us get open and rolling again. And ultimately, if there 999 00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:45,360 Speaker 1: is no amount of fit policy or spending from the government, 1000 00:59:45,760 --> 00:59:49,760 Speaker 1: that can in and of itself restore consumer confidence. If 1001 00:59:49,800 --> 00:59:51,720 Speaker 1: you think about it Againting of the Trump presidency, what 1002 00:59:51,880 --> 00:59:56,800 Speaker 1: really was the touchstone of this energized economy was rising 1003 00:59:56,840 --> 01:00:00,280 Speaker 1: investor confidence, rising consumer confidence, the belief that it if 1004 01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:03,200 Speaker 1: people made these investments, that ultimately they would see a 1005 01:00:03,240 --> 01:00:06,280 Speaker 1: return on those investments. And I think that that that 1006 01:00:06,480 --> 01:00:09,480 Speaker 1: just is going to be somewhat of a gradual process 1007 01:00:09,880 --> 01:00:12,840 Speaker 1: before we get to a vaccine now. Also, the President 1008 01:00:13,000 --> 01:00:17,040 Speaker 1: signed an executive order having to do with social media 1009 01:00:17,120 --> 01:00:23,840 Speaker 1: platforms and saying essentially, if they don't act as neutral platforms, 1010 01:00:23,880 --> 01:00:27,120 Speaker 1: that they're going to engage in speech policing, there will 1011 01:00:27,160 --> 01:00:31,640 Speaker 1: be consequences, and people are now learning Congressman Gates about 1012 01:00:32,080 --> 01:00:38,120 Speaker 1: this section two thirty and publisher versus platform and laws 1013 01:00:38,200 --> 01:00:41,040 Speaker 1: that affect whether or not you're liable for what's posted 1014 01:00:41,080 --> 01:00:42,720 Speaker 1: on your side. Can you just give us I mean, 1015 01:00:42,920 --> 01:00:45,760 Speaker 1: you sit on the Antitrust committee in Congress. Okay, can 1016 01:00:45,840 --> 01:00:48,120 Speaker 1: you tell us what's really going on here? I mean, 1017 01:00:48,360 --> 01:00:50,720 Speaker 1: what's at the heart of this fight over Twitter and 1018 01:00:50,880 --> 01:00:54,360 Speaker 1: Facebook and the bias and the pushback against it. We 1019 01:00:54,480 --> 01:00:56,680 Speaker 1: know there's bias, So what's going on with the fight 1020 01:00:56,720 --> 01:01:01,080 Speaker 1: against it. Yeah, let's start with two truths. Big tech 1021 01:01:01,840 --> 01:01:05,800 Speaker 1: is biased against conservatives. I think that's been well evidence. Second, 1022 01:01:06,080 --> 01:01:09,080 Speaker 1: big tech buys off Congress. I mean they've got multiple 1023 01:01:09,160 --> 01:01:12,360 Speaker 1: tech lobbyists for every member of the United States Senate. 1024 01:01:12,480 --> 01:01:15,640 Speaker 1: And as a consequence of the outsized power that they 1025 01:01:15,720 --> 01:01:18,560 Speaker 1: have with the Congress, do their donations if I don't 1026 01:01:18,600 --> 01:01:20,640 Speaker 1: take and by the way, I don't take any federal 1027 01:01:20,720 --> 01:01:23,480 Speaker 1: pack donations. I find the whole thing a bit unseemly. 1028 01:01:23,760 --> 01:01:25,440 Speaker 1: But what big tech is done is they've carved out 1029 01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:28,880 Speaker 1: a special protection in the law that the Buck Sexton 1030 01:01:28,920 --> 01:01:31,960 Speaker 1: Show doesn't get. That CNN and Fox News don't get 1031 01:01:32,000 --> 01:01:34,720 Speaker 1: that my post task hot Takes with my Gates doesn't get, 1032 01:01:34,880 --> 01:01:39,400 Speaker 1: and that protection allows them to hold themselves out as 1033 01:01:39,440 --> 01:01:42,920 Speaker 1: a neutral, unbiased platform and then not be liable for 1034 01:01:43,160 --> 01:01:46,480 Speaker 1: the content, or the meteor ring or the suppression of 1035 01:01:46,720 --> 01:01:50,800 Speaker 1: people's views. And I believe that if technology companies want 1036 01:01:50,960 --> 01:01:54,160 Speaker 1: that special benefit provided by the government, it has to 1037 01:01:54,200 --> 01:01:58,000 Speaker 1: be lashed to some transparency. You like, we should not 1038 01:01:58,200 --> 01:02:01,600 Speaker 1: just accept as an article of faith that Twitter is fair, 1039 01:02:01,800 --> 01:02:04,880 Speaker 1: or Facebook or really any other platform right. They should 1040 01:02:04,920 --> 01:02:06,760 Speaker 1: have to prove it. They should have to open the 1041 01:02:06,840 --> 01:02:10,240 Speaker 1: kimono a little bit and demonstrate that there isn't suppression 1042 01:02:10,280 --> 01:02:13,240 Speaker 1: or viewpoint. And for all of the libertarian think goes 1043 01:02:13,240 --> 01:02:15,400 Speaker 1: out there, who would say, well, that's regulating a private 1044 01:02:15,440 --> 01:02:19,080 Speaker 1: company that my answer would be that we as the government, 1045 01:02:19,120 --> 01:02:22,200 Speaker 1: when we create a special carve out, we depart from 1046 01:02:22,280 --> 01:02:25,840 Speaker 1: the type of free market practices that ought to animate 1047 01:02:26,120 --> 01:02:29,040 Speaker 1: our First Amendment values. So I'm glad that the President 1048 01:02:29,200 --> 01:02:33,240 Speaker 1: is going right at the specific immunities that allow big 1049 01:02:33,320 --> 01:02:37,640 Speaker 1: tech to suppress conservatives. But we also need the Department 1050 01:02:37,720 --> 01:02:41,480 Speaker 1: of Justice to get engaged by enforcing our anti trust laws. 1051 01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:45,960 Speaker 1: And I would suggest we need the Federal Election Commission engaged. Today, 1052 01:02:46,240 --> 01:02:51,080 Speaker 1: I'm filing a Federal Election Commission complaint against Twitter because 1053 01:02:51,160 --> 01:02:53,959 Speaker 1: of the way that they've treated President Trump, and any 1054 01:02:54,080 --> 01:02:56,520 Speaker 1: voter can do that. I would encourage others to do 1055 01:02:56,680 --> 01:03:01,040 Speaker 1: that because when they disadvantage the president is a corporate 1056 01:03:01,200 --> 01:03:05,960 Speaker 1: contribution to a campaign, and that's illegal, and it would 1057 01:03:05,960 --> 01:03:08,520 Speaker 1: be a contribution that exceeds the limits when you look 1058 01:03:08,560 --> 01:03:11,680 Speaker 1: at the value that the Twitter platform provides. Do you 1059 01:03:11,800 --> 01:03:15,960 Speaker 1: think that some of these mega companies in social media, 1060 01:03:16,520 --> 01:03:19,920 Speaker 1: Congressman Gates, do you think that they should be broken up? 1061 01:03:20,080 --> 01:03:23,400 Speaker 1: I mean, are they monopolies? You're a guy who knows antitrust. 1062 01:03:26,360 --> 01:03:28,080 Speaker 1: I don't think you can paint them all at the 1063 01:03:28,160 --> 01:03:31,200 Speaker 1: same brush. I am very concerned about some of the 1064 01:03:31,280 --> 01:03:35,440 Speaker 1: information we found in our bipartisan investigation of Amazon that 1065 01:03:35,560 --> 01:03:39,200 Speaker 1: they like, well literally on board some small business selling 1066 01:03:39,240 --> 01:03:42,120 Speaker 1: the widget onto their platform. Then they'll steal the ip, 1067 01:03:42,640 --> 01:03:44,920 Speaker 1: send it off to China and get the same widget 1068 01:03:45,040 --> 01:03:48,400 Speaker 1: replicated at a lower price to put perhaps an American 1069 01:03:48,440 --> 01:03:50,960 Speaker 1: small business out of business. That would be the very 1070 01:03:51,040 --> 01:03:55,840 Speaker 1: definition of using your market size and power to try 1071 01:03:55,920 --> 01:03:57,800 Speaker 1: to hurt people. And so if there's stuff like that 1072 01:03:58,000 --> 01:04:00,360 Speaker 1: going on, then yes, I do believe that there are 1073 01:04:00,400 --> 01:04:03,919 Speaker 1: antitrust tools in the law that allow us to break 1074 01:04:04,040 --> 01:04:07,360 Speaker 1: up a company like Amazon. If in fact that is evidence, 1075 01:04:07,400 --> 01:04:10,480 Speaker 1: then if in fact there's due process provided when it 1076 01:04:10,560 --> 01:04:14,720 Speaker 1: comes to the digital online platforms and the speech and communication. 1077 01:04:15,120 --> 01:04:17,160 Speaker 1: You know, I'm not entirely sure that we have to 1078 01:04:17,240 --> 01:04:19,760 Speaker 1: go as far as breaking them up, but I certainly 1079 01:04:19,840 --> 01:04:21,760 Speaker 1: think we can use the tools and the law to 1080 01:04:21,880 --> 01:04:25,400 Speaker 1: require transparency and then to punish them when they do 1081 01:04:25,560 --> 01:04:28,360 Speaker 1: things like shadow band Republicans in Congress. I mean, you'll 1082 01:04:28,360 --> 01:04:31,760 Speaker 1: remember a buck. There were four Republicans shadow band during 1083 01:04:31,800 --> 01:04:35,800 Speaker 1: the Russia hoax, Devin Nudez, Mark Meadows, Jim Jordan, and 1084 01:04:35,920 --> 01:04:38,480 Speaker 1: Matt Gates, and like Twitter said, well that was just 1085 01:04:38,600 --> 01:04:40,720 Speaker 1: a bug in their system, Well it's one hell of 1086 01:04:40,800 --> 01:04:43,880 Speaker 1: a buck. There always seems to fight the conservative Republicans 1087 01:04:43,960 --> 01:04:48,240 Speaker 1: who backed the president. So when there are those events 1088 01:04:48,360 --> 01:04:52,320 Speaker 1: that reveal themselves, we ought to have tough consequences. Well, 1089 01:04:52,360 --> 01:04:55,120 Speaker 1: what are the tech liaisons that you deal with in 1090 01:04:55,240 --> 01:04:57,160 Speaker 1: Capitol Hill? I mean, you know, the people that represent 1091 01:04:57,280 --> 01:04:59,880 Speaker 1: these big companies when they're presented with this, how much 1092 01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:02,280 Speaker 1: we get a Congressman Matt Gates you should check out 1093 01:05:02,280 --> 01:05:05,320 Speaker 1: his podcast Hot Takes. Would you listen to whatever podcasts 1094 01:05:05,480 --> 01:05:08,600 Speaker 1: wherever you get your podcasts? Congressman, what do they say? 1095 01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:12,000 Speaker 1: And it seems so apparent because there's never a prominent 1096 01:05:12,080 --> 01:05:15,640 Speaker 1: you know, Ilhan Omar has never been banned from Twitter 1097 01:05:15,920 --> 01:05:18,160 Speaker 1: or you know AOC or you know other people who 1098 01:05:18,240 --> 01:05:22,240 Speaker 1: are often pushing controversial points of view and are clearly 1099 01:05:22,440 --> 01:05:26,160 Speaker 1: highly political. It only happens on the right. Does Twitter 1100 01:05:26,280 --> 01:05:28,880 Speaker 1: or Facebook do they have some explanation that they offer 1101 01:05:29,000 --> 01:05:31,200 Speaker 1: up for this or is it just it's a coincidence. 1102 01:05:33,000 --> 01:05:36,400 Speaker 1: I found that it's very hard to shame the shameless book. 1103 01:05:36,760 --> 01:05:40,240 Speaker 1: We recently had one of those very Facebook liaisons before 1104 01:05:40,280 --> 01:05:43,080 Speaker 1: the House Judiciary Committee, and as you know, they were, 1105 01:05:43,240 --> 01:05:45,760 Speaker 1: they were talking about how fair and equal and just 1106 01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:48,680 Speaker 1: to their platform was, but they couldn't seem to answer 1107 01:05:48,800 --> 01:05:53,600 Speaker 1: my questions about why an account called like Milkshakes against 1108 01:05:53,720 --> 01:05:56,760 Speaker 1: Republicans was able to post that they wanted to see 1109 01:05:57,120 --> 01:06:01,080 Speaker 1: more Republicans shot during baseball practice as a consequence of 1110 01:06:01,120 --> 01:06:04,800 Speaker 1: our political views. I complained about that. I went to 1111 01:06:04,880 --> 01:06:07,680 Speaker 1: Twitter's headquarters and showed it to them, and it took 1112 01:06:07,720 --> 01:06:11,520 Speaker 1: them months to take down that post. And then I 1113 01:06:11,600 --> 01:06:15,320 Speaker 1: don't believe they ever even d platforms the account that 1114 01:06:15,480 --> 01:06:18,880 Speaker 1: said that Republicans should be shot at baseball practice. And 1115 01:06:19,080 --> 01:06:22,320 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, that's not like esoteric, that's not hypothetical. 1116 01:06:22,520 --> 01:06:24,760 Speaker 1: My friend and one of my mentors, Steep Scalie, was 1117 01:06:24,800 --> 01:06:27,480 Speaker 1: shot at baseball practice. And so I think that double 1118 01:06:27,520 --> 01:06:29,720 Speaker 1: standard is something that we have to continue to highlight 1119 01:06:29,800 --> 01:06:32,360 Speaker 1: in evidence. It's why I'm hopeful that the White House 1120 01:06:32,600 --> 01:06:34,400 Speaker 1: that the reports are true, that the White House is 1121 01:06:34,440 --> 01:06:39,000 Speaker 1: going to establish a commission to review specific instances of 1122 01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:42,880 Speaker 1: unfair bias against really against any political groups. I mean, 1123 01:06:42,920 --> 01:06:44,560 Speaker 1: I think we need to have a system in place 1124 01:06:44,640 --> 01:06:51,760 Speaker 1: that allows ideas to be criticized and evaluated, whether they're 1125 01:06:51,880 --> 01:06:54,880 Speaker 1: right wing, left wing, in the middle or whatever. And 1126 01:06:55,040 --> 01:06:57,280 Speaker 1: I think right now we just have a situation where, like, 1127 01:06:57,600 --> 01:06:59,440 Speaker 1: you know, I don't want Washington run in my life, 1128 01:06:59,480 --> 01:07:01,280 Speaker 1: but I showed us I don't want to Silicon Valley run. 1129 01:07:02,000 --> 01:07:04,760 Speaker 1: Congressmen Matt Gates of Florida.

Wait, wait, hold on, you mean 1151 01:08:07,640 --> 01:08:12,200 Speaker 1: you don't have a bunch of hyper nervous, anxious libs 1152 01:08:12,360 --> 01:08:16,160 Speaker 1: walking around with masks like their life depends on the 1153 01:08:16,800 --> 01:08:21,040 Speaker 1: constant possession of that mask on their face all the time. 1154 01:08:21,400 --> 01:08:24,439 Speaker 1: And if you so much as get within fifty yards 1155 01:08:24,479 --> 01:08:28,759 Speaker 1: of them without a mask, you're you're a mass murderer. 1156 01:08:28,960 --> 01:08:32,880 Speaker 1: Without your mask, you don't have that. You know what 1157 01:08:33,040 --> 01:08:35,240 Speaker 1: we do out here in Texas. If you go to 1158 01:08:35,400 --> 01:08:39,240 Speaker 1: downtown Houston, so I work in downtown, almost everybody will 1159 01:08:39,240 --> 01:08:41,439 Speaker 1: be wearing a mask. However, to this day of not 1160 01:08:41,520 --> 01:08:43,960 Speaker 1: seeing a single person yell at another person for not 1161 01:08:44,080 --> 01:08:45,720 Speaker 1: wearing one, I've never been yelled at, and I don't 1162 01:08:45,760 --> 01:08:48,040 Speaker 1: wear one ever. But if you go to the suburbs, 1163 01:08:48,240 --> 01:08:50,479 Speaker 1: you can't find anyone with one. It's like five percent 1164 01:08:50,520 --> 01:08:52,839 Speaker 1: of the population will have a mask. On the different 1165 01:08:52,960 --> 01:08:55,600 Speaker 1: worlds between Texas and New York City. And you know, 1166 01:08:55,680 --> 01:08:58,040 Speaker 1: I love New York City. It's just it is. It's 1167 01:08:58,040 --> 01:09:03,400 Speaker 1: a stark difference. It is, indeed, sir. It's also I'm 1168 01:09:03,479 --> 01:09:07,280 Speaker 1: so angry that there's no movement in this city against 1169 01:09:07,960 --> 01:09:10,200 Speaker 1: the fact that we have really just a bunch of 1170 01:09:10,320 --> 01:09:13,280 Speaker 1: dumb asses in charge here, people that have been wrong 1171 01:09:13,360 --> 01:09:17,280 Speaker 1: at every step of this every stage. And I don't 1172 01:09:17,320 --> 01:09:19,639 Speaker 1: I don't know how how much longer. People that see 1173 01:09:19,680 --> 01:09:24,360 Speaker 1: the world with clear eyes. Mostly conservative, not entirely here, 1174 01:09:24,400 --> 01:09:26,960 Speaker 1: but mostly the conservatives that are in New York City. 1175 01:09:26,960 --> 01:09:28,360 Speaker 1: I don't know how they how they stay, but all right, 1176 01:09:28,600 --> 01:09:30,320 Speaker 1: let me let me get past that for I'm just 1177 01:09:30,400 --> 01:09:34,120 Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna try to breathe, let it go that. 1178 01:09:34,200 --> 01:09:36,400 Speaker 1: You know, Jesse is gonna be out on the lake 1179 01:09:36,520 --> 01:09:39,080 Speaker 1: on a jet ski. I'm sure eating a tea bone 1180 01:09:39,200 --> 01:09:42,559 Speaker 1: steak without a mask across his face. I'm getting told 1181 01:09:42,600 --> 01:09:45,720 Speaker 1: that when my gym opens in about a month, I'm 1182 01:09:45,720 --> 01:09:48,800 Speaker 1: gonna have to wear a mask while working out. Just 1183 01:09:48,920 --> 01:09:52,880 Speaker 1: wait till someone that's the new rule. Someone is going 1184 01:09:53,000 --> 01:09:56,719 Speaker 1: to die of a heart attack on a treadmill because 1185 01:09:56,760 --> 01:09:59,679 Speaker 1: they were running with a mask. And idiot libs won't 1186 01:09:59,680 --> 01:10:01,760 Speaker 1: even be like, maybe we should rethink this, will say 1187 01:10:02,200 --> 01:10:04,200 Speaker 1: price you gotta pay to keep us safe with masks. 1188 01:10:04,400 --> 01:10:07,960 Speaker 1: That's how crazy they are. The mask has become this 1189 01:10:08,640 --> 01:10:11,000 Speaker 1: It's so much more than anything a mask actually does. 1190 01:10:11,080 --> 01:10:13,880 Speaker 1: It's become this symbol in people's minds where it's a 1191 01:10:13,960 --> 01:10:16,240 Speaker 1: symbol that you are listening to the doctors. It's a 1192 01:10:16,320 --> 01:10:18,920 Speaker 1: symbol you're keeping yourself safe. It's a symbol that you're 1193 01:10:19,000 --> 01:10:22,000 Speaker 1: keeping everyone else safe and nobody. Now we've we've way 1194 01:10:22,120 --> 01:10:24,800 Speaker 1: past this point where anybody is able to stop and 1195 01:10:24,920 --> 01:10:27,880 Speaker 1: actually think if it does any of that, or even 1196 01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:30,240 Speaker 1: listen to any of the other medical experts who say 1197 01:10:30,280 --> 01:10:31,920 Speaker 1: it doesn't at all. And I'm not saying whether it 1198 01:10:31,960 --> 01:10:34,280 Speaker 1: does or not. I'm not a doctor, but people do 1199 01:10:34,479 --> 01:10:37,280 Speaker 1: realize there are just as many doctors that say wearing 1200 01:10:37,320 --> 01:10:39,640 Speaker 1: the mask is ridiculous. Right, just because the all of 1201 01:10:39,760 --> 01:10:42,240 Speaker 1: society has decided that's the only way you can go, 1202 01:10:43,160 --> 01:10:45,920 Speaker 1: that doesn't mean it's the truth. And Jesse, I don't know. 1203 01:10:45,920 --> 01:10:47,400 Speaker 1: I don't want to hold you up before you reackons it. 1204 01:10:47,479 --> 01:10:50,360 Speaker 1: Just we got about a minute. How is Texas doing 1205 01:10:50,479 --> 01:10:53,000 Speaker 1: now that you guys are reopened? Yeah, honestly, Black it's 1206 01:10:53,040 --> 01:10:56,000 Speaker 1: really really tough because we're not open all the way yet. 1207 01:10:56,320 --> 01:10:59,919 Speaker 1: But even though parts of it are some long established 1208 01:11:00,280 --> 01:11:02,880 Speaker 1: here in the Houston area, especially restaurants, I'm talking things 1209 01:11:02,920 --> 01:11:05,240 Speaker 1: that have been here for forty fifty years, they're closing 1210 01:11:05,280 --> 01:11:07,760 Speaker 1: their doors forever. And what's amazing as you see all 1211 01:11:07,800 --> 01:11:09,840 Speaker 1: these local news pun ins getting on news at night 1212 01:11:09,840 --> 01:11:12,840 Speaker 1: and saying I can't believe this, this is shocking. What 1213 01:11:13,080 --> 01:11:15,599 Speaker 1: did all you idiots think was going to happen when 1214 01:11:15,640 --> 01:11:17,760 Speaker 1: you forced them to close their doors for two months. 1215 01:11:17,800 --> 01:11:21,040 Speaker 1: Do you think restaurants just run on goodwill? Yes, we're 1216 01:11:21,120 --> 01:11:23,680 Speaker 1: losing people permanently, and now you're going to hear a 1217 01:11:23,720 --> 01:11:26,000 Speaker 1: lot of that. I'm shocked about this. You shouldn't be. 1218 01:11:26,080 --> 01:11:28,519 Speaker 1: I told you from the beginning, so did you. Buck. Yeah. Man, 1219 01:11:28,640 --> 01:11:30,640 Speaker 1: We've been saying it, and now people are seeing it. 1220 01:11:30,720 --> 01:11:34,760 Speaker 1: Hopefully we can all recover from this insanity in due time. 1221 01:11:34,960 --> 01:11:38,599 Speaker 1: Jesse Kelly of Pluto TV's I'm Right with Jesse Kelly 1222 01:11:38,640 --> 01:11:42,200 Speaker 1: also down on KPRC Houston, the best talk radio station 1223 01:11:42,240 --> 01:11:44,320 Speaker 1: in the Houston area, because Jesse Kelly and Buck Sexton 1224 01:11:44,360 --> 01:11:46,439 Speaker 1: are both on it.

Thank you 1226 01:11:47,960 --> 01:11:51,400 Speaker 1: for staying with us, dear brother. Thanks for listening to 1227 01:11:51,439 --> 01:11:55,760 Speaker 1: The Bus Sesson Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple Podcasts, 1228 01:11:55,920 --> 01:12:00,400 Speaker 1: the iHeartRadio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. I 1229 01:12:00,560 --> 01:12:03,960 Speaker 1: feel like I'm living in a crazy world here in 1230 01:12:04,080 --> 01:12:06,599 Speaker 1: New York, and it's true in a lot of places 1231 01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:09,880 Speaker 1: across the country. Now there's some consensus that has formed 1232 01:12:09,880 --> 01:12:12,560 Speaker 1: around certain issues that we're told they're rooted in the 1233 01:12:12,640 --> 01:12:16,240 Speaker 1: science and the facts, and it's just not true, just 1234 01:12:16,520 --> 01:12:19,759 Speaker 1: not the case. And to some of you, maybe, although 1235 01:12:19,760 --> 01:12:21,280 Speaker 1: I don't think many of you, I might have sounded 1236 01:12:21,280 --> 01:12:24,679 Speaker 1: a bit like a mask truther recently, like masks don't work. 1237 01:12:25,560 --> 01:12:30,519 Speaker 1: They work in certain contexts for certain things, and at 1238 01:12:30,520 --> 01:12:33,559 Speaker 1: a certain level. That is not the same thing as 1239 01:12:33,600 --> 01:12:38,440 Speaker 1: saying it is worth the hassle, the annoyance, the imposition 1240 01:12:39,080 --> 01:12:43,800 Speaker 1: of masking all places, all times outside your own home, right, 1241 01:12:43,960 --> 01:12:48,080 Speaker 1: that's not the same thing. And we know this because 1242 01:12:48,280 --> 01:12:51,160 Speaker 1: until now, and I mean until the last few weeks, 1243 01:12:52,000 --> 01:12:54,640 Speaker 1: nobody thought that in the midst of a pandemic you 1244 01:12:54,640 --> 01:12:58,120 Speaker 1: would have everybody going around walking wearing masks in this country. 1245 01:12:58,160 --> 01:13:00,600 Speaker 1: In other countries they've been doing it, and guess what, 1246 01:13:00,640 --> 01:13:04,400 Speaker 1: they've still have outbreaks of the disease. But in case 1247 01:13:04,479 --> 01:13:06,680 Speaker 1: you think that I'm just coming up with this and oh, 1248 01:13:07,040 --> 01:13:08,360 Speaker 1: you know, buck, what have you? All they do is 1249 01:13:08,400 --> 01:13:10,439 Speaker 1: read all day long. Basically, I read all day long. 1250 01:13:10,520 --> 01:13:12,880 Speaker 1: Producer marcs to like text me to remind me that, 1251 01:13:13,040 --> 01:13:14,240 Speaker 1: you know, I got to get up and actually do 1252 01:13:14,280 --> 01:13:16,760 Speaker 1: a show, and then I just keep reading and trying 1253 01:13:16,760 --> 01:13:19,200 Speaker 1: to do more research so I'm fortunate and that I 1254 01:13:19,280 --> 01:13:22,280 Speaker 1: can just deep dive into things every day however I want, 1255 01:13:22,320 --> 01:13:24,760 Speaker 1: whenever I want, and bring you the best information I 1256 01:13:24,880 --> 01:13:27,320 Speaker 1: can on everything. And a lot of the people that 1257 01:13:27,439 --> 01:13:30,200 Speaker 1: say science follow the science. Not only do they not 1258 01:13:30,320 --> 01:13:33,040 Speaker 1: know science, they don't read, they don't know anything, but 1259 01:13:33,160 --> 01:13:37,120 Speaker 1: they're just like to talk about the science. I do 1260 01:13:37,240 --> 01:13:39,400 Speaker 1: read a lot. I'm not a scientist. And one thing 1261 01:13:39,439 --> 01:13:42,120 Speaker 1: that I've noticed is that if you look for science 1262 01:13:42,600 --> 01:13:45,400 Speaker 1: on the issue of masks and the benefits of masking, 1263 01:13:45,640 --> 01:13:49,880 Speaker 1: you find very quickly that there really isn't a scientific 1264 01:13:49,960 --> 01:13:53,519 Speaker 1: consensus out there on the civilian population wearing masks as 1265 01:13:53,560 --> 01:13:58,000 Speaker 1: a means of preventing the transmission of an upper respiratory virus. 1266 01:13:59,280 --> 01:14:04,240 Speaker 1: And here we have, for example, a video put out 1267 01:14:05,240 --> 01:14:08,000 Speaker 1: what was this in February. This is now making the rounds, 1268 01:14:08,240 --> 01:14:11,760 Speaker 1: a video put out by the World Health Organization. So 1269 01:14:11,880 --> 01:14:13,800 Speaker 1: this was the if there is such a thing as 1270 01:14:13,840 --> 01:14:17,880 Speaker 1: a global medical consensus, which there really isn't. But if 1271 01:14:17,920 --> 01:14:20,320 Speaker 1: there was such a thing, one would think that the 1272 01:14:20,640 --> 01:14:28,360 Speaker 1: who would be representative of that consensus. And here's what 1273 01:14:28,640 --> 01:14:34,519 Speaker 1: they have as there directive for the public on the 1274 01:14:34,640 --> 01:14:39,040 Speaker 1: wearing of masks. Play clip three. Medical masks like this 1275 01:14:39,240 --> 01:14:42,879 Speaker 1: one cannot predict against the new coronavirus when used alone. 1276 01:14:43,640 --> 01:14:46,600 Speaker 1: When you wear them, you must combined with hand hygiene 1277 01:14:46,880 --> 01:14:52,000 Speaker 1: and untopreventive measures. WHO only recommends the use of mask 1278 01:14:52,160 --> 01:14:58,040 Speaker 1: in specific cases. If you have cough, fever, and difficulty breathing, 1279 01:14:58,600 --> 01:15:02,280 Speaker 1: you should wear a mask and seek medical care. If 1280 01:15:02,360 --> 01:15:05,000 Speaker 1: you do not have these symptoms, you do not have 1281 01:15:05,240 --> 01:15:09,160 Speaker 1: to wear masks because there is no evidence that they 1282 01:15:09,280 --> 01:15:14,519 Speaker 1: protect people who are not sick. However, if you are healthy, 1283 01:15:15,120 --> 01:15:17,800 Speaker 1: but you are taking care of a person who may 1284 01:15:17,840 --> 01:15:22,280 Speaker 1: be infected with the new coronavirus, then you should wear 1285 01:15:22,400 --> 01:15:25,800 Speaker 1: a mask whenever you are in the same room with 1286 01:15:25,920 --> 01:15:29,760 Speaker 1: that person. I just did you catch that? This is 1287 01:15:29,800 --> 01:15:35,080 Speaker 1: a public service public safety announcement from the World Health 1288 01:15:35,200 --> 01:15:41,920 Speaker 1: Organization during the coronavirus pandemic this year. That says, I mean, 1289 01:15:42,080 --> 01:15:44,240 Speaker 1: if you're healthy, wearing a mask is like not something 1290 01:15:44,320 --> 01:15:49,840 Speaker 1: you should do. What what has changed between then and now? 1291 01:15:50,160 --> 01:15:54,200 Speaker 1: What study have we seen? What has been shown to 1292 01:15:54,439 --> 01:15:58,160 Speaker 1: us that all of a sudden shifts the scientific insensus. 1293 01:15:58,360 --> 01:16:03,240 Speaker 1: The answer is nothing. The answer is that masks have 1294 01:16:03,400 --> 01:16:07,560 Speaker 1: just become an emotional crut sure people who are terrified 1295 01:16:07,960 --> 01:16:11,520 Speaker 1: all the time about going outside and facing the coronavirus, 1296 01:16:11,640 --> 01:16:16,200 Speaker 1: even though unless you're in a high risk category, this 1297 01:16:16,479 --> 01:16:20,720 Speaker 1: is not something that it is reasonable to be afraid of. 1298 01:16:21,880 --> 01:16:23,559 Speaker 1: And I understand some people are afraid of things an 1299 01:16:23,600 --> 01:16:26,519 Speaker 1: unreasonable fashion. Some people, you know, even at a clinical level, 1300 01:16:26,560 --> 01:16:29,720 Speaker 1: you know, there's a gooraphobia, and there's you know, there's 1301 01:16:29,720 --> 01:16:33,519 Speaker 1: a rachnophobia, and there's all these different What is it 1302 01:16:33,600 --> 01:16:36,639 Speaker 1: to trick adecaphobias? Fear of the number thirteen? Is that right? 1303 01:16:36,880 --> 01:16:39,559 Speaker 1: I think I got that one. I don't know why 1304 01:16:39,600 --> 01:16:41,240 Speaker 1: that one's stuck in my brain. But there's all kinds 1305 01:16:41,240 --> 01:16:45,160 Speaker 1: of phobias, right, Fear irrational fear of something. People have 1306 01:16:45,320 --> 01:16:51,280 Speaker 1: developed coronaphobia, and they should not allow that to emotionally 1307 01:16:51,320 --> 01:16:56,680 Speaker 1: and psychologically cripple them and also be the rationalization in 1308 01:16:56,760 --> 01:17:01,000 Speaker 1: their mind for states, for states to do things that 1309 01:17:01,120 --> 01:17:06,600 Speaker 1: are violating their rights, are that are overreached by the authorities. 1310 01:17:07,280 --> 01:17:11,200 Speaker 1: We have far too easily and far too quickly succumbed 1311 01:17:11,240 --> 01:17:16,760 Speaker 1: to this, and I do find it very troubling. And 1312 01:17:16,880 --> 01:17:18,640 Speaker 1: that's the most polite way I can say it. There 1313 01:17:18,640 --> 01:17:20,040 Speaker 1: are other things that I would want to say about it. 1314 01:17:20,080 --> 01:17:22,120 Speaker 1: But so I want to be very clear when I 1315 01:17:22,240 --> 01:17:24,599 Speaker 1: tell you. When I say that I have skepticism about 1316 01:17:25,080 --> 01:17:28,200 Speaker 1: required masking in the lobby of my own apartment building, 1317 01:17:28,600 --> 01:17:30,679 Speaker 1: or in the gym where I want to work out, 1318 01:17:31,200 --> 01:17:35,040 Speaker 1: or outdoors in Central Park here in New York City, 1319 01:17:36,160 --> 01:17:42,200 Speaker 1: I'm pointing out that the science does not support these things, 1320 01:17:43,120 --> 01:17:47,040 Speaker 1: and in fact, the CDC, up until now, when all 1321 01:17:47,040 --> 01:17:50,920 Speaker 1: of a sudden the politics are driving this, would have said, yeah, 1322 01:17:51,000 --> 01:17:53,280 Speaker 1: we're not you know, we're not really sure if you're in. 1323 01:17:53,680 --> 01:17:56,200 Speaker 1: And the reason that people in some of the healthcare 1324 01:17:56,240 --> 01:17:59,240 Speaker 1: settings are wearing masks is that there's such a higher 1325 01:17:59,320 --> 01:18:03,519 Speaker 1: probability that they'll be exposed to viral to a high 1326 01:18:03,720 --> 01:18:06,519 Speaker 1: viral load from a person and maybe in such close 1327 01:18:06,600 --> 01:18:09,840 Speaker 1: direct contact that their their spit or you know, they're 1328 01:18:09,880 --> 01:18:12,920 Speaker 1: the droplets from their mouth will be in physical contact 1329 01:18:12,960 --> 01:18:17,960 Speaker 1: with them that it's worth the imposition for medical people, 1330 01:18:18,600 --> 01:18:20,439 Speaker 1: people that are doctors and nurses to wear a mask. 1331 01:18:20,680 --> 01:18:23,000 Speaker 1: But for the rest of us, for the rest of us, 1332 01:18:23,120 --> 01:18:26,400 Speaker 1: this is it's a it's a political statement, and it's 1333 01:18:26,400 --> 01:18:29,920 Speaker 1: a psychological and it's emotional crutch for people. If if 1334 01:18:30,000 --> 01:18:35,120 Speaker 1: you walk through droplets in the air, remember these are 1335 01:18:35,200 --> 01:18:39,320 Speaker 1: micro droplets and you are breathing in air. The mask 1336 01:18:39,720 --> 01:18:45,240 Speaker 1: is not stopping the virus from Yeah, you're not. You're 1337 01:18:45,280 --> 01:18:49,120 Speaker 1: not stopping it from being from being exposed to it. Yo, 1338 01:18:50,000 --> 01:18:52,080 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? I did I say? Yo? 1339 01:18:52,840 --> 01:18:55,680 Speaker 1: I don't know. Sorry, Yo, I don't know where that 1340 01:18:55,760 --> 01:18:58,840 Speaker 1: came from. But what's up? Yo? But yes, you're not, 1341 01:18:59,680 --> 01:19:03,200 Speaker 1: you're not. And also people keep forgetting viruses can enter 1342 01:19:03,280 --> 01:19:07,479 Speaker 1: through your eyes. It's actually a very weak it's a 1343 01:19:07,560 --> 01:19:10,960 Speaker 1: weak spot in the immune system. It's a place where 1344 01:19:11,000 --> 01:19:12,640 Speaker 1: you can get all and that's why you know, touching her. 1345 01:19:12,760 --> 01:19:15,840 Speaker 1: People keep talking about touching your mouth. You touch your 1346 01:19:15,920 --> 01:19:19,439 Speaker 1: eye with virus and it's a very easy way for 1347 01:19:19,479 --> 01:19:23,200 Speaker 1: it to get into your bloodstream. So you know the sign. 1348 01:19:23,560 --> 01:19:25,800 Speaker 1: I'm looking at the science all these nags. Why are 1349 01:19:25,840 --> 01:19:27,839 Speaker 1: you wearing a mask? It's not that big a cuomo 1350 01:19:28,120 --> 01:19:30,599 Speaker 1: wear a mask because if you don't wear a mask, 1351 01:19:31,080 --> 01:19:35,519 Speaker 1: you're literally a mass murderer because you're killing a lot 1352 01:19:35,560 --> 01:19:38,799 Speaker 1: of people. Why should you not kill people? Because killing people? 1353 01:19:40,240 --> 01:19:41,519 Speaker 1: This is where the governor of New York say, and 1354 01:19:41,520 --> 01:19:45,560 Speaker 1: guy's a moron. Some people figure out though this is 1355 01:19:45,600 --> 01:19:48,400 Speaker 1: all crap, This was great, This is great. You had 1356 01:19:48,479 --> 01:19:54,839 Speaker 1: this guy in Montgomery County, Maryland. It's a pretty fancy county, 1357 01:19:54,920 --> 01:19:59,160 Speaker 1: I think, if memory serves, and he is announcing the 1358 01:19:59,280 --> 01:20:03,560 Speaker 1: new stupid, the new dumb ass restrictions you have for 1359 01:20:03,760 --> 01:20:08,719 Speaker 1: this county for the reopening, and turns out some people 1360 01:20:09,520 --> 01:20:14,479 Speaker 1: don't really want to hear about this nonsense. Play clip seven. 1361 01:20:15,240 --> 01:20:19,400 Speaker 1: Childcare opens as the governor described, it's open for dependents 1362 01:20:19,439 --> 01:20:25,240 Speaker 1: of essential employees and Phase one reopening employees. And there 1363 01:20:25,320 --> 01:20:29,720 Speaker 1: are limits on the number of people who can be 1364 01:20:29,800 --> 01:20:35,560 Speaker 1: in the childcare. Again, these are Governor Hogan's recommendations. Personal services, 1365 01:20:35,640 --> 01:20:39,720 Speaker 1: hair salons and barbie shops open for hair only. No haircuts, 1366 01:20:39,800 --> 01:20:46,360 Speaker 1: no manicures, none of the uh, no pedicures, houses of 1367 01:20:47,240 --> 01:21:12,640 Speaker 1: houses of worship open. I think it's great. People are like, what, 1368 01:21:14,520 --> 01:21:16,360 Speaker 1: you can't get a hair cut, but you can get 1369 01:21:16,800 --> 01:21:21,200 Speaker 1: hair what hair color? Like? What are these arbitrary distinctions 1370 01:21:21,640 --> 01:21:26,000 Speaker 1: that these just abject morons in charge you're making? Well, 1371 01:21:26,040 --> 01:21:28,880 Speaker 1: what are they talking about? If you're in a place, 1372 01:21:28,960 --> 01:21:31,280 Speaker 1: you're in the place. Let people get the services they 1373 01:21:31,320 --> 01:21:34,679 Speaker 1: want in the place. This is not based in science. 1374 01:21:34,720 --> 01:21:38,719 Speaker 1: This is now just all fear and control. It's all crap. 1375 01:21:39,720 --> 01:21:42,479 Speaker 1: I have been right about this, you know it. I've 1376 01:21:42,520 --> 01:21:46,840 Speaker 1: been right about this for months now. All these people 1377 01:21:46,880 --> 01:21:49,240 Speaker 1: are telling, oh, we're a myth or you hate everybody, 1378 01:21:49,320 --> 01:21:51,160 Speaker 1: you're being reckless. They don't know what they're talking about. 1379 01:21:51,200 --> 01:21:54,360 Speaker 1: They don't read the studies. They don't know. And now 1380 01:21:54,439 --> 01:21:56,519 Speaker 1: that we're reopening, goal can reopen. But you know, if 1381 01:21:56,520 --> 01:21:59,519 Speaker 1: you're reopen a restaurant, you can order a ham sandwich, 1382 01:21:59,560 --> 01:22:02,599 Speaker 1: but not roast beef. What has that happened with? COVID nineteen? 1383 01:22:03,560 --> 01:22:05,840 Speaker 1: Shut up, peasant, Do as we tell you, or else 1384 01:22:06,080 --> 01:22:10,839 Speaker 1: we'll find you. Morons are in charge. Folks. Welcome to America. 1385 01:22:13,600 --> 01:22:16,599 Speaker 1: You're in the freedom hud. This is the Buck Sexton 1386 01:22:16,680 --> 01:22:25,320 Speaker 1: Show podcast, All right back by Team Buck popular demand. 1387 01:22:25,439 --> 01:22:29,200 Speaker 1: We have Tiana Lowe in the house. She is a 1388 01:22:29,520 --> 01:22:33,519 Speaker 1: commentary writer at The Washington Examiner and a contributor to 1389 01:22:33,760 --> 01:22:36,760 Speaker 1: Pluto TV's The First Channel two forty eight on your 1390 01:22:36,760 --> 01:22:40,280 Speaker 1: Pluto TV app, she joins now TIERA, tell me how 1391 01:22:40,680 --> 01:22:44,320 Speaker 1: is life down in Quarantine in DC? Last time I 1392 01:22:44,479 --> 01:22:46,720 Speaker 1: was there, it was even more of a ghost town 1393 01:22:46,800 --> 01:22:50,120 Speaker 1: than New York was. Yeah, I mean today we finally 1394 01:22:50,280 --> 01:22:54,720 Speaker 1: began our phase one of reopening, which is shockingly a 1395 01:22:54,800 --> 01:22:58,000 Speaker 1: lot less exciting than it sounds because the mayor of DC, 1396 01:22:58,720 --> 01:23:01,040 Speaker 1: you know, there have been all these crys from restaurant 1397 01:23:01,080 --> 01:23:03,920 Speaker 1: owners and bar owners just saying DC is a physically 1398 01:23:04,040 --> 01:23:06,920 Speaker 1: small city. Shut down some of the streets and let 1399 01:23:07,000 --> 01:23:11,839 Speaker 1: us go. Let restaurants put dining seats and dining tables 1400 01:23:12,000 --> 01:23:15,559 Speaker 1: in the streets, make them walking streets. But DC has 1401 01:23:15,600 --> 01:23:17,960 Speaker 1: been really slow to act. So when you think about 1402 01:23:18,240 --> 01:23:21,600 Speaker 1: small city, small physical restaurants, the number of them that 1403 01:23:21,720 --> 01:23:26,559 Speaker 1: can actually reopen and remain profitability, it's really small. If 1404 01:23:26,600 --> 01:23:30,200 Speaker 1: you only have a patio that can fit six tables 1405 01:23:30,320 --> 01:23:33,240 Speaker 1: that are all socially distanced, that's not enough to turn 1406 01:23:33,280 --> 01:23:35,920 Speaker 1: a profit if you're going to reopen. So I mean 1407 01:23:36,000 --> 01:23:39,120 Speaker 1: this is a cause for celebration, but quite frankly, the 1408 01:23:39,240 --> 01:23:42,280 Speaker 1: city should be bending over backwards trying to approve more 1409 01:23:42,360 --> 01:23:46,120 Speaker 1: liquor permits, approve more dining permits, make it so as 1410 01:23:46,200 --> 01:23:48,120 Speaker 1: many things can open up as possible. I mean, if 1411 01:23:48,120 --> 01:23:49,880 Speaker 1: you really, if you want to go get your nails 1412 01:23:49,920 --> 01:23:52,599 Speaker 1: done or get a haircut, you're better off just crossing 1413 01:23:52,640 --> 01:23:54,759 Speaker 1: the river and heading to Maryland or heading to Virginia. 1414 01:23:55,439 --> 01:23:58,879 Speaker 1: And I gotta ask D you have other really stupid 1415 01:23:58,960 --> 01:24:02,320 Speaker 1: rules like we do year in New York City when 1416 01:24:02,360 --> 01:24:05,519 Speaker 1: it comes to Deblasio. Our mayor here now has said 1417 01:24:05,960 --> 01:24:09,680 Speaker 1: one person at a time at the elevator, And I'm like, 1418 01:24:09,920 --> 01:24:12,840 Speaker 1: they're coming up with rules that no one is going 1419 01:24:12,920 --> 01:24:16,280 Speaker 1: to follow, Like, no one, only people that are terrified 1420 01:24:16,360 --> 01:24:18,320 Speaker 1: of this whole thing, which they shouldn't be. The stats 1421 01:24:18,360 --> 01:24:20,800 Speaker 1: are in the numbers. If you're under fifty, your risk 1422 01:24:20,880 --> 01:24:24,040 Speaker 1: from this is very, very very low. Do you guys 1423 01:24:24,120 --> 01:24:27,559 Speaker 1: have any dumb stuff like that going on? Yeah, it's 1424 01:24:27,600 --> 01:24:29,840 Speaker 1: not even just that people won't follow them. It won't 1425 01:24:29,840 --> 01:24:33,519 Speaker 1: do anything to decrease the transmission of the coronavirus, you know, 1426 01:24:33,680 --> 01:24:35,560 Speaker 1: one of the things that DC is doing now. So 1427 01:24:36,120 --> 01:24:38,760 Speaker 1: you can go into a grocery store with a mask 1428 01:24:38,840 --> 01:24:41,719 Speaker 1: and socially distanced and buy your groceries. But you can't 1429 01:24:41,800 --> 01:24:44,360 Speaker 1: go to a Nordstrum to buy new genes. You can't 1430 01:24:44,400 --> 01:24:46,680 Speaker 1: go to a Sapphora to buy new makeup. These are 1431 01:24:46,720 --> 01:24:49,519 Speaker 1: all people who need to work and they need people 1432 01:24:49,600 --> 01:24:54,160 Speaker 1: physically in their stores in order to gain income. It's 1433 01:24:54,200 --> 01:24:57,719 Speaker 1: just you know, restaurants can open up outside, but bars can't. 1434 01:24:57,960 --> 01:25:01,680 Speaker 1: If bars don't serve three individually cooked meals bars can 1435 01:25:02,000 --> 01:25:05,479 Speaker 1: a new rule from the there. Our speed limit has 1436 01:25:05,520 --> 01:25:07,960 Speaker 1: been decreased to twenty miles an hour because that will 1437 01:25:08,000 --> 01:25:11,600 Speaker 1: absolutely inhabit the spread of the coronavirus. It makes no 1438 01:25:11,800 --> 01:25:15,400 Speaker 1: sense and it's honestly just petty authoritarianism run a lampit. 1439 01:25:15,880 --> 01:25:17,479 Speaker 1: And so we're seeing here too, and I don't know 1440 01:25:17,560 --> 01:25:19,760 Speaker 1: what it's going to take for people to you know, 1441 01:25:19,880 --> 01:25:23,080 Speaker 1: on the one hand, we have, based on Minneapolis, cities 1442 01:25:23,120 --> 01:25:26,000 Speaker 1: across the country that have nothing, that are obviously not Minneapolis, 1443 01:25:26,080 --> 01:25:30,120 Speaker 1: that are also seeing protests and you know, some violence 1444 01:25:30,200 --> 01:25:32,200 Speaker 1: in the streets, cops having to wrestle people to the ground, 1445 01:25:32,240 --> 01:25:34,960 Speaker 1: lots of stuff going on here. I'm I'm a little 1446 01:25:35,000 --> 01:25:39,320 Speaker 1: bit in shock about how much these cities, in these 1447 01:25:39,400 --> 01:25:42,439 Speaker 1: blue enclaves like New York have been willing to tolerate 1448 01:25:42,840 --> 01:25:46,120 Speaker 1: when we are we are ruled by idiots in New York, 1449 01:25:46,200 --> 01:25:49,679 Speaker 1: I mean de Blasio and Cuomo. Cuomo's nursing home policy, 1450 01:25:50,280 --> 01:25:53,600 Speaker 1: It's like he came up with the fastest way to 1451 01:25:53,800 --> 01:25:57,679 Speaker 1: infect the most at risk people possible and everyone still 1452 01:25:57,720 --> 01:26:01,360 Speaker 1: listens to them. I don't know what's going on. I mean, 1453 01:26:01,439 --> 01:26:05,040 Speaker 1: this whole thing has been a blacklight over just who 1454 01:26:05,080 --> 01:26:08,120 Speaker 1: are the worst sycophants in the media. The fact that 1455 01:26:08,240 --> 01:26:12,080 Speaker 1: Cuomo has been completely lionized. You know, studies now show 1456 01:26:12,240 --> 01:26:15,400 Speaker 1: that that New York had shut down about a week earlier, 1457 01:26:15,680 --> 01:26:18,520 Speaker 1: they could have prevented about fifty percent of all coronavirus 1458 01:26:18,640 --> 01:26:21,360 Speaker 1: deaths when you look back. So now people are saying 1459 01:26:21,439 --> 01:26:24,320 Speaker 1: the subway was probably the number one source of coronavirus 1460 01:26:24,360 --> 01:26:27,960 Speaker 1: transmission in New York. And even though Deblasio was trying 1461 01:26:28,000 --> 01:26:30,880 Speaker 1: to persecute people for growing outside, Cuomo never decided to 1462 01:26:31,000 --> 01:26:34,160 Speaker 1: shut down the subway. And ultimately the authority the MTA 1463 01:26:34,280 --> 01:26:36,760 Speaker 1: does rest with the state, not with the city. It 1464 01:26:37,000 --> 01:26:40,559 Speaker 1: is political malpractice that Cuomo has been held up as 1465 01:26:40,600 --> 01:26:42,560 Speaker 1: this hero. And especially if you want to look a 1466 01:26:42,680 --> 01:26:45,760 Speaker 1: good Democrats that have handled this crisis, California has ton 1467 01:26:45,800 --> 01:26:50,200 Speaker 1: of them. California does not have the same in like 1468 01:26:50,360 --> 01:26:53,519 Speaker 1: crazy death rate, crazy caseload rate. And yeah, on the 1469 01:26:53,600 --> 01:26:55,920 Speaker 1: one hand, most of California is more spread out than 1470 01:26:56,000 --> 01:26:58,320 Speaker 1: New York. But San Francisco's the second NSIS city in 1471 01:26:58,320 --> 01:27:02,240 Speaker 1: the country and they've had thirty six coronavirus deaths. Why 1472 01:27:02,400 --> 01:27:03,800 Speaker 1: because they have a mayor with a couple of brain 1473 01:27:03,840 --> 01:27:07,080 Speaker 1: cells to actually run together instead of dummy, build a Blasio. 1474 01:27:07,240 --> 01:27:09,720 Speaker 1: We're speaking of a Tiana Lowe, commentary writer for the 1475 01:27:09,800 --> 01:27:14,240 Speaker 1: Washington Examiner and also a contributor to the First on 1476 01:27:14,400 --> 01:27:18,240 Speaker 1: Pluto TV TA. Let's just move to the political scene 1477 01:27:18,280 --> 01:27:20,880 Speaker 1: for a second, and this I thought this pole was 1478 01:27:20,920 --> 01:27:25,519 Speaker 1: really interesting. Joe Biden. This is according to Newsweek, Joe 1479 01:27:25,600 --> 01:27:29,960 Speaker 1: Biden a week ago and the same Reuters IPSOS poll 1480 01:27:30,800 --> 01:27:35,439 Speaker 1: was up nine points, and now it turns out that 1481 01:27:35,640 --> 01:27:39,280 Speaker 1: Joe Biden as of this week is only up six points. 1482 01:27:40,000 --> 01:27:42,920 Speaker 1: What do you think is heading in the president's favor 1483 01:27:43,040 --> 01:27:45,519 Speaker 1: right now? And also how concerned should we be that 1484 01:27:45,680 --> 01:27:48,720 Speaker 1: a guy who like almost every day gives us a 1485 01:27:48,800 --> 01:27:51,720 Speaker 1: sound bite that is fantastic for radio because it's so 1486 01:27:51,880 --> 01:27:55,599 Speaker 1: hilarious and bizarre and it's like, mister McGoo, run a muck. 1487 01:27:56,320 --> 01:27:58,280 Speaker 1: How is he ahead of Trump in any of these 1488 01:27:58,760 --> 01:28:02,720 Speaker 1: battleground pole a national level polls? So right now, the 1489 01:28:02,760 --> 01:28:05,439 Speaker 1: goal of this election is to keep for Trump. It's 1490 01:28:05,479 --> 01:28:08,000 Speaker 1: to keep this election from being a referendum on Trump. 1491 01:28:08,120 --> 01:28:10,240 Speaker 1: That is one of the reasons why Trump did why 1492 01:28:10,320 --> 01:28:12,479 Speaker 1: Trump did win in twenty sixteen, because it wound up 1493 01:28:12,479 --> 01:28:15,439 Speaker 1: becoming a referendum on Hillary and on the Obama era, 1494 01:28:15,760 --> 01:28:18,400 Speaker 1: and that benefited Trump. Right now, Trump is the leader, 1495 01:28:18,520 --> 01:28:20,840 Speaker 1: so he's in the spotlight. You know, you are seeing 1496 01:28:20,960 --> 01:28:24,560 Speaker 1: his approval rating go down, But because negative partisanship is 1497 01:28:24,600 --> 01:28:28,000 Speaker 1: so strong, it has not really affected his presidential polling. 1498 01:28:28,080 --> 01:28:30,840 Speaker 1: And that's fundamentally what matters. A big factor I think 1499 01:28:30,880 --> 01:28:34,720 Speaker 1: the media doesn't want to address most voters pulled. There 1500 01:28:34,760 --> 01:28:36,280 Speaker 1: have only been a handful of polls about this, so 1501 01:28:36,400 --> 01:28:38,559 Speaker 1: we can't say it for a fact, but most voters 1502 01:28:38,640 --> 01:28:42,400 Speaker 1: polled believe the terror read allegation, and even if it's 1503 01:28:42,439 --> 01:28:45,800 Speaker 1: only a minority of those who believe her who will 1504 01:28:45,880 --> 01:28:49,439 Speaker 1: change their votes as a result, that's not insignificant. So 1505 01:28:49,600 --> 01:28:52,040 Speaker 1: we know that Biden is polling better with the college 1506 01:28:52,200 --> 01:28:55,679 Speaker 1: educated class than Hillary Clinton. He's doing better with older 1507 01:28:55,800 --> 01:28:58,479 Speaker 1: voters by a law, which should scare the Trump team, 1508 01:28:58,880 --> 01:29:02,400 Speaker 1: but he does not do well with young black voters. 1509 01:29:02,840 --> 01:29:07,439 Speaker 1: And we already know the black electorate. They're the bellweather 1510 01:29:07,600 --> 01:29:10,360 Speaker 1: of how well Democrats do. So even though yes, it 1511 01:29:10,600 --> 01:29:13,080 Speaker 1: was older black voters who saved him and saved his 1512 01:29:13,200 --> 01:29:17,320 Speaker 1: candidacy in South Carolina and crucially afterward, but it's more 1513 01:29:17,400 --> 01:29:20,120 Speaker 1: suburbanite moms who are turning out for Biden than young 1514 01:29:20,240 --> 01:29:23,519 Speaker 1: black voters, who are also very important in the politically 1515 01:29:23,600 --> 01:29:27,080 Speaker 1: active community. So I mean, the best thing that Trump 1516 01:29:27,200 --> 01:29:29,840 Speaker 1: is going for him is negative partisanship, even if you 1517 01:29:29,920 --> 01:29:31,800 Speaker 1: hate the tweets, even if you hate all of it. 1518 01:29:31,960 --> 01:29:35,559 Speaker 1: Right now, we're looking at what could be an immediate recovery, 1519 01:29:35,720 --> 01:29:38,760 Speaker 1: what could be a three year long recovery, with unemployment 1520 01:29:38,840 --> 01:29:42,479 Speaker 1: persisting into the double digits well into next year. Trump 1521 01:29:42,600 --> 01:29:44,680 Speaker 1: needs to sell Do you really want to hand the 1522 01:29:44,760 --> 01:29:47,040 Speaker 1: reins back over to the guy who was second in 1523 01:29:47,080 --> 01:29:50,160 Speaker 1: command during the longest economic recovery since World War Two? 1524 01:29:51,360 --> 01:29:54,360 Speaker 1: Fair point, Tiana Low, everybody of the Washington Examiner and 1525 01:29:54,640 --> 01:29:57,040 Speaker 1: contributor here at the first Tianna, thanks so much for 1526 01:29:57,120 --> 01:30:02,160 Speaker 1: joining him.

But there's something 1535 01:30:44,360 --> 01:30:46,360 Speaker 1: cool on the horizon. All right, all right, Mark, we 1536 01:30:46,439 --> 01:30:48,639 Speaker 1: can say something cool is coming. We always have cool 1537 01:30:48,680 --> 01:30:51,880 Speaker 1: things coming, that's true, but this one's especially cool. So 1538 01:30:52,040 --> 01:30:55,560 Speaker 1: this is kind of exciting. So let's let's see what 1539 01:30:55,600 --> 01:30:58,400 Speaker 1: we have here. We got first up in the mix. Well, actually, 1540 01:30:58,439 --> 01:31:00,719 Speaker 1: know before we go, what are producer Mark and missus 1541 01:31:00,800 --> 01:31:03,400 Speaker 1: Mark doing this week? And anything fun? How can we 1542 01:31:03,479 --> 01:31:06,599 Speaker 1: do anything fun? We're in the New York area. That's 1543 01:31:06,600 --> 01:31:10,080 Speaker 1: a good point. Well, aren't there isn't the Jersey Shore open? 1544 01:31:10,720 --> 01:31:13,040 Speaker 1: It's do you know how far the Jersey Shore is 1545 01:31:13,200 --> 01:31:17,639 Speaker 1: from like northern New Jersey. It's a couple hour drive. 1546 01:31:17,960 --> 01:31:20,439 Speaker 1: It's like an hour drive, not that bad. And I 1547 01:31:20,520 --> 01:31:23,439 Speaker 1: have to find parking, you know, and they it's all 1548 01:31:23,520 --> 01:31:28,200 Speaker 1: thing yeah, beach capacity too. What about you know, when 1549 01:31:28,200 --> 01:31:30,720 Speaker 1: you're on the Amtrak train, for example, or you're on 1550 01:31:31,000 --> 01:31:33,120 Speaker 1: ninety five and you start going through northern New Jersey, 1551 01:31:33,680 --> 01:31:37,280 Speaker 1: you know there's all those uh the meadow lands for example, 1552 01:31:37,880 --> 01:31:40,960 Speaker 1: or any of those like swimming holes you know, Yeah, yeah, sure, 1553 01:31:41,080 --> 01:31:45,160 Speaker 1: go ahead and go swimming in the swamp. Buck. I'm 1554 01:31:45,240 --> 01:31:48,080 Speaker 1: just saying you probably could. There's a reason people say 1555 01:31:48,120 --> 01:31:52,439 Speaker 1: that New Jersey smells. That is the reason. Yeah, I 1556 01:31:52,520 --> 01:31:55,120 Speaker 1: guess that some of those chemical facilities that run off 1557 01:31:55,400 --> 01:32:00,240 Speaker 1: into those marsh areas might not be the most health full, 1558 01:32:01,240 --> 01:32:04,360 Speaker 1: you know. I would say that it's it's a lot 1559 01:32:04,400 --> 01:32:08,360 Speaker 1: of swamp land and then you see MetLife stadium. M 1560 01:32:08,920 --> 01:32:13,400 Speaker 1: good point. Rich. First up, it was great listening to 1561 01:32:13,439 --> 01:32:15,559 Speaker 1: your account of your meeting with our president on the radio. 1562 01:32:15,960 --> 01:32:18,439 Speaker 1: I really enjoy your show. I have to say the 1563 01:32:18,520 --> 01:32:21,000 Speaker 1: voice yesterday almost did take me back to her Elizabeth 1564 01:32:21,040 --> 01:32:26,200 Speaker 1: Warren impersonation. I'm originally a South Jersey river rat, grown 1565 01:32:26,280 --> 01:32:30,639 Speaker 1: up in Beverly on the river. Unfortunately, all my friends 1566 01:32:30,720 --> 01:32:34,720 Speaker 1: from childhood are Lib Dems and denounce our president at 1567 01:32:34,760 --> 01:32:37,799 Speaker 1: every turn. I lived in the great state of Oklahoma, 1568 01:32:37,880 --> 01:32:41,280 Speaker 1: where all my friends in the last for the last 1569 01:32:41,320 --> 01:32:45,120 Speaker 1: thirty years support our president. Oh, I guess he lives 1570 01:32:45,280 --> 01:32:48,040 Speaker 1: not lived. Thank you for meeting with our president, the 1571 01:32:48,080 --> 01:32:50,519 Speaker 1: greatest president of my life, now spanning sixty five years. 1572 01:32:50,640 --> 01:32:54,120 Speaker 1: Keep helping him keeping America great by keeping us informed 1573 01:32:54,160 --> 01:32:56,200 Speaker 1: to entertain Rich. Thank you very much for your kind 1574 01:32:56,280 --> 01:32:59,360 Speaker 1: and supportive note. We really do appreciate it. Here in 1575 01:32:59,479 --> 01:33:02,160 Speaker 1: the hut and I gotta get out to Oklahoma. Never 1576 01:33:02,240 --> 01:33:05,240 Speaker 1: never been in Oklahoma, never been like I got places 1577 01:33:05,280 --> 01:33:07,360 Speaker 1: I gotta go. I have places to go, people to see, 1578 01:33:07,920 --> 01:33:11,519 Speaker 1: things that do. Hopefully we can start doing that again 1579 01:33:11,560 --> 01:33:15,559 Speaker 1: when the country opens up a bit. Andy, Greetings from 1580 01:33:15,640 --> 01:33:20,599 Speaker 1: the MSP metro area. I'm appalled and deeply saddened by 1581 01:33:20,640 --> 01:33:24,680 Speaker 1: the last few days. I'm not a lifelong Minnesotan. As 1582 01:33:24,760 --> 01:33:28,599 Speaker 1: a result, it was initially quite disarming how nice people 1583 01:33:28,720 --> 01:33:32,040 Speaker 1: are here. It's a common practice, for example, during the winter, 1584 01:33:32,439 --> 01:33:34,960 Speaker 1: for people to leave their cars running keys in the 1585 01:33:35,040 --> 01:33:38,720 Speaker 1: ignition while they run into stores. There's a trust and 1586 01:33:38,880 --> 01:33:41,120 Speaker 1: sense of community that I feel here that I haven't 1587 01:33:41,160 --> 01:33:44,360 Speaker 1: felt in the multiple areas I've lived. People put up 1588 01:33:44,400 --> 01:33:47,080 Speaker 1: with the horrible weather and the cold because they love 1589 01:33:47,200 --> 01:33:50,160 Speaker 1: being here and raising their families here. I ask your 1590 01:33:50,200 --> 01:33:52,679 Speaker 1: listeners to please pray for our city and the broader 1591 01:33:52,720 --> 01:33:57,759 Speaker 1: metro area. Shields Hi, Andy, absolutely prayers up for prayers 1592 01:33:57,880 --> 01:34:04,960 Speaker 1: up for Minneapolis in Minnesota, and we are thinking about 1593 01:34:05,040 --> 01:34:07,439 Speaker 1: you all. And you know, I know that there are 1594 01:34:07,439 --> 01:34:11,480 Speaker 1: people listening right now who are on listening on KTLK 1595 01:34:12,000 --> 01:34:15,880 Speaker 1: in Minneapolis. Saint Paul and our thoughts and prayers go 1596 01:34:15,920 --> 01:34:18,960 Speaker 1: out to all of you and just this will pass. 1597 01:34:19,560 --> 01:34:21,880 Speaker 1: This will be okay in the end. I mean, you'll 1598 01:34:21,920 --> 01:34:23,880 Speaker 1: be okay in the end. I'm just sorry what's going 1599 01:34:23,920 --> 01:34:26,360 Speaker 1: on with your city, because it's distressing. Over one hundred 1600 01:34:26,360 --> 01:34:29,840 Speaker 1: and seventy business is either looted or attacked or destroyed, 1601 01:34:29,960 --> 01:34:32,759 Speaker 1: burned down. That's a lot. That's a lot of places. 1602 01:34:33,520 --> 01:34:38,640 Speaker 1: It feels like a whole neighborhood. Brian Buck, I have 1603 01:34:38,920 --> 01:34:43,040 Speaker 1: a real mask virtue signaling winner for you. I live 1604 01:34:43,080 --> 01:34:45,679 Speaker 1: in New Hampshire where we do not have helmet laws 1605 01:34:45,720 --> 01:34:48,400 Speaker 1: for motorcycles. So the other day my wife and I 1606 01:34:48,520 --> 01:34:50,679 Speaker 1: were out for a drive and I saw a real 1607 01:34:50,760 --> 01:34:56,040 Speaker 1: winner on a sport bike, shorts, sneakers, T shirt, no helmet, 1608 01:34:56,200 --> 01:34:58,960 Speaker 1: but he had a surgical mask on because you know 1609 01:34:59,080 --> 01:35:01,960 Speaker 1: that going seventy prior on the highway is a real 1610 01:35:02,080 --> 01:35:05,960 Speaker 1: at risk situation for COVID. I do like that a lot, 1611 01:35:06,040 --> 01:35:08,479 Speaker 1: I've got to say. I mean, yeah, if if you're 1612 01:35:08,479 --> 01:35:10,760 Speaker 1: gonna be going eighty on a Harley and you're not 1613 01:35:10,920 --> 01:35:13,880 Speaker 1: wearing a helmet, but you're gonna wear a surgical mask, 1614 01:35:15,120 --> 01:35:17,439 Speaker 1: you know you're a liberal at that point. You know 1615 01:35:17,640 --> 01:35:20,400 Speaker 1: you're a lib at that stage, What do you think, 1616 01:35:20,439 --> 01:35:24,480 Speaker 1: Producer Mark, Yeah, I mean just going on a motorbike 1617 01:35:24,560 --> 01:35:27,120 Speaker 1: or Harley or anything like that with that helmet. How 1618 01:35:27,320 --> 01:35:30,360 Speaker 1: dumb can you be? Yeah, I would not do that. 1619 01:35:30,720 --> 01:35:34,080 Speaker 1: In fact, I've never been on a motorcycle, so I 1620 01:35:34,200 --> 01:35:38,200 Speaker 1: haven't either that. Yeah, never been on one. I've been 1621 01:35:38,240 --> 01:35:39,519 Speaker 1: on one of those sort of you have, like a 1622 01:35:39,560 --> 01:35:43,439 Speaker 1: little kick kick start thing dirt bike in the country, 1623 01:35:43,960 --> 01:35:46,280 Speaker 1: so I guess that's calf. I've never been on an 1624 01:35:46,320 --> 01:35:50,880 Speaker 1: actual road, you know, on on a motorcycle. So I'm 1625 01:35:52,160 --> 01:35:54,120 Speaker 1: on our honeymoon in Jamaica. We wrote a TV so 1626 01:35:54,200 --> 01:35:58,720 Speaker 1: that was incredibly fun. ATVs are great. That's a lot 1627 01:35:58,760 --> 01:36:01,160 Speaker 1: of fun. Yeah, there's a place here where you can 1628 01:36:01,240 --> 01:36:04,080 Speaker 1: rent jet skis in New York City and go on 1629 01:36:04,120 --> 01:36:05,840 Speaker 1: the Hudson River. I'd like to look into that actually, 1630 01:36:05,880 --> 01:36:08,400 Speaker 1: because I've another another fun fact about Buck. I've never 1631 01:36:08,520 --> 01:36:11,679 Speaker 1: been jet skiing. Would you not be worried about accidentally 1632 01:36:11,720 --> 01:36:16,120 Speaker 1: falling into the Hudson Hudson's fine, come on, that's fine. 1633 01:36:16,560 --> 01:36:19,760 Speaker 1: The amount of water in that same water that goes 1634 01:36:19,800 --> 01:36:22,120 Speaker 1: in the meadowlands where I love to go swimming right by, 1635 01:36:22,280 --> 01:36:25,160 Speaker 1: right by Giant Stadium, and the big chemical factories. Come on. 1636 01:36:25,320 --> 01:36:27,600 Speaker 1: I don't want to say what's probably floating in the 1637 01:36:27,680 --> 01:36:29,680 Speaker 1: Hudson Buck, but I think you and I can use 1638 01:36:29,720 --> 01:36:34,080 Speaker 1: our imaginations. It's probably true some people, probably some people 1639 01:36:34,120 --> 01:36:36,719 Speaker 1: sleeping with the fishes. It's that's the thing that happens 1640 01:36:36,760 --> 01:36:40,760 Speaker 1: there sometimes, Glenn, hey Buck, I will say that I 1641 01:36:40,840 --> 01:36:43,680 Speaker 1: do keep bing on my phone. Oh we have a 1642 01:36:43,760 --> 01:36:46,479 Speaker 1: bing user. The only reason I do is to see 1643 01:36:46,479 --> 01:36:50,120 Speaker 1: the websites that Google has censored from my search. When 1644 01:36:50,160 --> 01:36:52,799 Speaker 1: the story about Joe Biden talking about getting the Ukrainian 1645 01:36:52,880 --> 01:36:58,280 Speaker 1: age fires came out, Agi fired, not fires, A Google 1646 01:36:58,320 --> 01:37:00,640 Speaker 1: search gave me nothing. Per an infant being brought it 1647 01:37:00,840 --> 01:37:05,679 Speaker 1: right up. You should try it sometime, Agland. I don't 1648 01:37:05,720 --> 01:37:07,879 Speaker 1: know if I'm gonna switch over to big Look. Google's 1649 01:37:07,880 --> 01:37:12,200 Speaker 1: another lib company. Facebook is a lib company. Although actually 1650 01:37:12,479 --> 01:37:15,960 Speaker 1: I liked we we have that thing, didn't Mark Yep Zuckerberg. 1651 01:37:16,600 --> 01:37:18,280 Speaker 1: I like what he said, can we can we play 1652 01:37:18,360 --> 01:37:21,320 Speaker 1: clip fifteen? This is what he said about Facebook. But 1653 01:37:21,439 --> 01:37:25,000 Speaker 1: I think we've been pretty clear on what I think 1654 01:37:25,040 --> 01:37:28,040 Speaker 1: the right approaches, which is that I don't think that 1655 01:37:29,040 --> 01:37:34,280 Speaker 1: Facebook or Internet platforms in general should be arbiters of truth. 1656 01:37:34,400 --> 01:37:36,519 Speaker 1: I think that's a kind of a dangerous line to 1657 01:37:36,600 --> 01:37:40,200 Speaker 1: get down to in terms of deciding what is what 1658 01:37:40,680 --> 01:37:45,880 Speaker 1: is true and what isn't here he is Zuck. Well, 1659 01:37:45,920 --> 01:37:48,320 Speaker 1: I guess there's Jeff zucker and then there's Zuckerberg. I 1660 01:37:48,400 --> 01:37:50,559 Speaker 1: feel like Zuckerberg should be the guy who gets called. 1661 01:37:50,680 --> 01:37:53,240 Speaker 1: You know, he's the big He's zuck you know, he's 1662 01:37:53,280 --> 01:37:55,679 Speaker 1: the one. He's much bigger deal than than Jeff Zucker. 1663 01:37:55,760 --> 01:37:59,960 Speaker 1: Jeff Zucker is a glorified, glorified NBC producer who happened 1664 01:38:00,120 --> 01:38:03,920 Speaker 1: now run set and it's really insane. Where were we on? 1665 01:38:04,479 --> 01:38:07,720 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it shouldn't be the arbiter of truth. He's 1666 01:38:07,720 --> 01:38:10,280 Speaker 1: absolutely correct. So Facebook is a little better on this 1667 01:38:10,400 --> 01:38:13,400 Speaker 1: than Twitter. But you know, the Libs love to dominate 1668 01:38:13,479 --> 01:38:15,960 Speaker 1: Twitter and they think that this is a necessary this 1669 01:38:16,160 --> 01:38:18,120 Speaker 1: is necessary for them, So we got to keep that 1670 01:38:18,240 --> 01:38:24,400 Speaker 1: in mind. All right. Next up we have to do 1671 01:38:24,640 --> 01:38:28,160 Speaker 1: rich shirt Buck. We got another Richard here. I wanted 1672 01:38:28,160 --> 01:38:30,760 Speaker 1: to give you a resistance story. Last year, I got 1673 01:38:30,840 --> 01:38:33,519 Speaker 1: a free couch from a friend. It's a good couch, 1674 01:38:33,880 --> 01:38:37,400 Speaker 1: except the foam cushions were worn out. So I called 1675 01:38:37,520 --> 01:38:39,880 Speaker 1: during all the shutdown madness to see when the foam 1676 01:38:40,040 --> 01:38:43,040 Speaker 1: guy will reopen. He tells me, I'm not shut down 1677 01:38:43,080 --> 01:38:45,240 Speaker 1: and bring the old ones to get a quote. He 1678 01:38:45,400 --> 01:38:48,679 Speaker 1: never shut down. It was still just as busy as normal, 1679 01:38:48,880 --> 01:38:51,680 Speaker 1: only require me to wear a mask. Four hours later, 1680 01:38:51,800 --> 01:38:56,120 Speaker 1: the couch is like new here in and see Kami 1681 01:38:56,280 --> 01:38:59,680 Speaker 1: Cooper is getting sued left and right. He lost to 1682 01:38:59,720 --> 01:39:02,360 Speaker 1: the churches, and now the bars and Jim's are suing. 1683 01:39:03,160 --> 01:39:05,600 Speaker 1: We might not have the convention now in Charlotte. I 1684 01:39:05,720 --> 01:39:10,040 Speaker 1: hope he loses in November. Foam shields high. All right, Richard, 1685 01:39:10,160 --> 01:39:16,600 Speaker 1: thanks man, cool story. There we go. You're in the 1686 01:39:16,760 --> 01:39:20,120 Speaker 1: Freedom Hunt. This is the Buck Sex and Show podcast. 1687 01:39:23,800 --> 01:39:25,840 Speaker 1: All right, we got Kyle a Buck. I agree with 1688 01:39:25,880 --> 01:39:29,560 Speaker 1: your guest David's opinion on voter requirements. I'm of the 1689 01:39:29,680 --> 01:39:34,000 Speaker 1: Starship Trooper's mindset. Service to the country earns you the 1690 01:39:34,120 --> 01:39:36,960 Speaker 1: right to vote, because serving means you have a stake 1691 01:39:37,080 --> 01:39:43,400 Speaker 1: in society. Heinlun wrote, when you vote, you're exercising political authority. 1692 01:39:43,640 --> 01:39:47,800 Speaker 1: You're using force, and force, my friends, is violence the 1693 01:39:47,880 --> 01:39:51,599 Speaker 1: supreme authority from which all other authorities are derived. Imagine 1694 01:39:51,600 --> 01:39:54,200 Speaker 1: if we gave the same scrutiny to voting as we 1695 01:39:54,360 --> 01:39:58,679 Speaker 1: do the ability to purchase a firearm, Kyle ella Quenton, 1696 01:39:58,720 --> 01:40:00,840 Speaker 1: perhaps a bit radical in you're a analysis, but uh, 1697 01:40:01,560 --> 01:40:03,600 Speaker 1: thank you very much for writing in Manum. Yeah, and 1698 01:40:03,680 --> 01:40:07,800 Speaker 1: I also think, um, I think that that at least 1699 01:40:07,880 --> 01:40:11,120 Speaker 1: making people show up. I think that's very reasonable, show 1700 01:40:11,200 --> 01:40:13,439 Speaker 1: up to have to vote and not just press a 1701 01:40:13,479 --> 01:40:16,280 Speaker 1: button on your smartphone like I vote. I don't think 1702 01:40:16,360 --> 01:40:19,559 Speaker 1: that's you know, you do have people that I believe 1703 01:40:19,680 --> 01:40:22,000 Speaker 1: want more. There are people that will talk about direct 1704 01:40:22,040 --> 01:40:24,600 Speaker 1: democracy where we would all just vote on you know, 1705 01:40:24,720 --> 01:40:26,920 Speaker 1: a whole range of issues from our phones. Right the 1706 01:40:27,280 --> 01:40:30,240 Speaker 1: governor could say, hey, we should should we do this thing? 1707 01:40:30,400 --> 01:40:32,160 Speaker 1: How should we spend this money? And everyone gets to 1708 01:40:32,240 --> 01:40:36,040 Speaker 1: vote on their phones. That that that turns into moboc 1709 01:40:36,160 --> 01:40:39,680 Speaker 1: receive very quickly. Nick, although the I know, I know 1710 01:40:39,840 --> 01:40:42,679 Speaker 1: there are referendums and there are things like this that happened. 1711 01:40:42,880 --> 01:40:47,160 Speaker 1: But nonetheless, Nick hey buck big fan from the original 1712 01:40:47,439 --> 01:40:51,439 Speaker 1: Saturday Squad o s S, just wanted to float something 1713 01:40:51,520 --> 01:40:54,080 Speaker 1: to see what you think. Is it possible that Biden's 1714 01:40:54,640 --> 01:40:59,320 Speaker 1: no malarkey tour was just a cover story for his slippage. 1715 01:41:00,080 --> 01:41:03,280 Speaker 1: He seems to have gotten pretty grumpy since then. Maybe 1716 01:41:03,439 --> 01:41:08,240 Speaker 1: someone saw it coming. Oh, producer Mark, what do you 1717 01:41:08,280 --> 01:41:11,400 Speaker 1: think Nick is saying here? I think slippage. I think 1718 01:41:11,439 --> 01:41:17,080 Speaker 1: he's talking about mentally Ah interesting, but I'm not really 1719 01:41:17,160 --> 01:41:19,519 Speaker 1: I'm I'm Nika, I kind of I don't know if 1720 01:41:19,600 --> 01:41:22,639 Speaker 1: you think that somebody who thinks they're slipping would say 1721 01:41:23,360 --> 01:41:25,360 Speaker 1: the normal Larkey tour. I don't see how that's a 1722 01:41:25,400 --> 01:41:27,160 Speaker 1: cover for I don't know, Nick. I look, I appreciate 1723 01:41:27,200 --> 01:41:29,439 Speaker 1: your writing, and I just don't I don't really see it. 1724 01:41:29,800 --> 01:41:35,840 Speaker 1: But thank you, Mica Buck forget Malta.

That'd be kind of fun, kind of fun. 1728 01:41:46,840 --> 01:41:49,519 Speaker 1: I don't know. You put a couple of drinks, Producer, Mark, 1729 01:41:49,560 --> 01:41:51,320 Speaker 1: We're got to We're got to take out the bleep 1730 01:41:51,360 --> 01:41:54,000 Speaker 1: button a lot, though, you know, I think that's the point. 1731 01:41:54,080 --> 01:41:57,040 Speaker 1: They don't. They want to do this on YouTube or something. Yeah, 1732 01:41:57,120 --> 01:41:59,080 Speaker 1: without bleeps, I don't be kind of fun, you know, 1733 01:41:59,439 --> 01:42:02,080 Speaker 1: be like Pruce, Mark, what's the worst what's the worst 1734 01:42:02,160 --> 01:42:04,920 Speaker 1: move that the New York Football Giants have ever made? 1735 01:42:04,960 --> 01:42:07,519 Speaker 1: It's like hit the deck. You're the Giants wouldn't do 1736 01:42:07,560 --> 01:42:10,599 Speaker 1: it the mets of the Rangers. You'd get me ranting, Yeah, there, 1737 01:42:10,760 --> 01:42:13,200 Speaker 1: there you go. I did see there was a funny 1738 01:42:13,280 --> 01:42:16,000 Speaker 1: Tom Brady exchange with did you see this one with 1739 01:42:16,080 --> 01:42:18,080 Speaker 1: Eli Manning? Back when I used to watch football, I 1740 01:42:18,160 --> 01:42:20,479 Speaker 1: saw Eli beat Tom Brady twice in the Super Bowl, 1741 01:42:20,720 --> 01:42:24,320 Speaker 1: greatest sporting events I've ever watched, both times, and at 1742 01:42:24,439 --> 01:42:28,639 Speaker 1: Eli or Brady made some Twitter comment to Eli about 1743 01:42:29,200 --> 01:42:32,200 Speaker 1: because he had just joined Twitter, you know, only showing 1744 01:42:32,320 --> 01:42:35,519 Speaker 1: up in the fourth quarter classic Eli. It was pretty funny. Actually, yeah, 1745 01:42:35,560 --> 01:42:37,639 Speaker 1: that is funny. But he shows up the fourth quarter 1746 01:42:37,720 --> 01:42:41,880 Speaker 1: to beat Tom Brady. So indeed, I will always say 1747 01:42:42,160 --> 01:42:46,559 Speaker 1: Eli Manning the most average quarterback of all time except 1748 01:42:46,600 --> 01:42:49,680 Speaker 1: for two quarters of his life. I mean, you know, 1749 01:42:49,720 --> 01:42:52,439 Speaker 1: you only need you only need two big wins to 1750 01:42:52,560 --> 01:42:54,519 Speaker 1: be a legend. This is that's why he's a whole. 1751 01:42:54,600 --> 01:42:56,920 Speaker 1: He's most likely Hall of Famer off of two games, 1752 01:42:57,160 --> 01:42:59,559 Speaker 1: or I'll give made games the whole playoffs belf years. Yeah, 1753 01:42:59,600 --> 01:43:02,559 Speaker 1: but people forget this. I mean Churchill, for example, Winston Churchill, 1754 01:43:02,560 --> 01:43:06,960 Speaker 1: the British Prime Minister. You all know Churchill was very 1755 01:43:07,200 --> 01:43:09,679 Speaker 1: a very prolific writer and has all these sayings attributed 1756 01:43:09,720 --> 01:43:12,840 Speaker 1: to him, and it has this whole character. He was 1757 01:43:12,960 --> 01:43:16,000 Speaker 1: wrong about a lot of stuff. People forget this now, 1758 01:43:16,200 --> 01:43:21,360 Speaker 1: but he was right about the single most important thing 1759 01:43:21,520 --> 01:43:25,320 Speaker 1: at the single most important time, probably the twentieth century, 1760 01:43:25,360 --> 01:43:27,280 Speaker 1: which was the evils of Nazism and the need to 1761 01:43:27,320 --> 01:43:29,800 Speaker 1: get So. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. You have one 1762 01:43:30,040 --> 01:43:33,160 Speaker 1: huge win, and that's what you're known for, you know. 1763 01:43:33,439 --> 01:43:36,040 Speaker 1: He According to Wayne Gretzky Michael Scott, you missed one 1764 01:43:36,080 --> 01:43:39,200 Speaker 1: hundred percent of the shots you don't take. There you go. 1765 01:43:40,680 --> 01:43:44,599 Speaker 1: True story. Greg Buck just wanted to say something cool 1766 01:43:44,680 --> 01:43:46,880 Speaker 1: for Roll Call because I get way too riled up 1767 01:43:46,920 --> 01:43:50,000 Speaker 1: from listening to you daily.

It just 1773 01:44:05,640 --> 01:44:07,679 Speaker 1: is my favorite movie. I can't say that Mel Gibson's 1774 01:44:07,720 --> 01:44:11,320 Speaker 1: my favorite actor. He was great in a bunch of things, 1775 01:44:12,400 --> 01:44:14,320 Speaker 1: but I wouldn't say he's my favorite. Actually, I don't 1776 01:44:14,320 --> 01:44:17,479 Speaker 1: know producer Mark, do you have a favorite all time actor? 1777 01:44:17,840 --> 01:44:20,840 Speaker 1: I don't know how you even say that, you that 1778 01:44:21,000 --> 01:44:24,760 Speaker 1: there is the greatest actor of all time, Like can 1779 01:44:24,800 --> 01:44:28,040 Speaker 1: you really name one? Or like there's so many movies. 1780 01:44:28,120 --> 01:44:29,920 Speaker 1: Be a better way to put a movie your all 1781 01:44:30,000 --> 01:44:33,080 Speaker 1: time favorite. I don't even think I could say that. 1782 01:44:34,240 --> 01:44:36,400 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't think. I don't think one 1783 01:44:36,439 --> 01:44:38,240 Speaker 1: comes I think a lot of people would probably start 1784 01:44:38,280 --> 01:44:42,040 Speaker 1: saying things like Tom Hanks. A lot of people would say. 1785 01:44:42,439 --> 01:44:45,200 Speaker 1: For some people, maybe Harrison Ford. If you're looking for 1786 01:44:45,280 --> 01:44:46,960 Speaker 1: male act you know there's male actors feeling. I think 1787 01:44:47,040 --> 01:44:49,840 Speaker 1: Denzel comes up. I was gonna say Denzel would come 1788 01:44:49,920 --> 01:44:53,120 Speaker 1: up for a lot of folks. Um, you know, some 1789 01:44:53,240 --> 01:44:55,960 Speaker 1: people if you're really into like the most sort of 1790 01:44:56,040 --> 01:44:59,240 Speaker 1: pure acting method and everything else would say Daniel day Lewis. 1791 01:45:00,040 --> 01:45:01,599 Speaker 1: You know these are these are some of the great 1792 01:45:01,920 --> 01:45:04,760 Speaker 1: male And then everyone always says Meryl Streep on the 1793 01:45:04,840 --> 01:45:08,840 Speaker 1: female side. I don't know. I'm not as impressed as 1794 01:45:08,880 --> 01:45:12,599 Speaker 1: everybody else. I'd put Steve Correll up there, greatest all 1795 01:45:12,680 --> 01:45:17,040 Speaker 1: time act I'd put him up there is just most versatile. 1796 01:45:18,120 --> 01:45:19,720 Speaker 1: He could do comedy, he can do drama, and he 1797 01:45:19,760 --> 01:45:21,680 Speaker 1: always makes you laugh or he makes you cry. I 1798 01:45:21,720 --> 01:45:25,400 Speaker 1: mean The Office is one of the greatest comedic collaborations 1799 01:45:25,840 --> 01:45:28,400 Speaker 1: of apparently space for shrup today, I'm gonna have to 1800 01:45:28,439 --> 01:45:30,800 Speaker 1: watch that after the show. Wait is he in that? Yeah? 1801 01:45:30,840 --> 01:45:32,640 Speaker 1: I told you it's the show that would say the 1802 01:45:32,760 --> 01:45:35,719 Speaker 1: creator of the Office and him teamed up again. Where 1803 01:45:36,120 --> 01:45:40,280 Speaker 1: it's on Netflix? Oh my gosh, sign me up. I 1804 01:45:40,520 --> 01:45:42,240 Speaker 1: thank you for the reminder, producer, Mark. That's what I'm 1805 01:45:42,240 --> 01:45:44,800 Speaker 1: gonna spend my weekend doing that and getting the Snow 1806 01:45:44,800 --> 01:45:46,680 Speaker 1: Princess to make me some cookies.

So, Dennis, since I 1811 01:45:59,680 --> 01:46:02,560 Speaker 1: didn't you mentioned watching the Ulysses Grant documentary which just 1812 01:46:02,720 --> 01:46:05,280 Speaker 1: recently aired on the History Channel, and knowing your interest 1813 01:46:05,320 --> 01:46:06,800 Speaker 1: in history, I thought it'd be worth letting you know. 1814 01:46:06,840 --> 01:46:08,760 Speaker 1: I found it very well done and worth viewing. Grant 1815 01:46:08,880 --> 01:46:11,360 Speaker 1: is one that has seemingly overlooked in our country, yet 1816 01:46:11,400 --> 01:46:13,120 Speaker 1: it could be argued played a major role in our 1817 01:46:13,240 --> 01:46:16,320 Speaker 1: country's history. Thanks, as always for the great content you 1818 01:46:16,400 --> 01:46:18,439 Speaker 1: put into each show and allowing your listeners viewers a 1819 01:46:18,520 --> 01:46:22,799 Speaker 1: chance to opine. Shield Time asks low, my man Dennis, 1820 01:46:22,880 --> 01:46:25,280 Speaker 1: I like it. Shield Time asks low, indeed, and then 1821 01:46:25,320 --> 01:46:30,760 Speaker 1: one more Andrew. Sanctimonious mask shamers are annoying and irritating. 1822 01:46:31,120 --> 01:46:34,160 Speaker 1: But I've been thinking about a counter strike. What if 1823 01:46:34,280 --> 01:46:38,200 Speaker 1: people in great numbers began wearing Maga Trump Pence twenty 1824 01:46:38,280 --> 01:46:42,280 Speaker 1: twenty masks everywhere in public? Would this suddenly change the 1825 01:46:42,520 --> 01:46:45,519 Speaker 1: mask love that zealous libs have. I would wear one, 1826 01:46:45,720 --> 01:46:49,000 Speaker 1: thanks and she'll tie. Um. I know I think I 1827 01:46:49,080 --> 01:46:52,040 Speaker 1: brought this up. I might have said this. Maybe I 1828 01:46:52,120 --> 01:46:53,639 Speaker 1: said I don't know. I think I said this last 1829 01:46:53,720 --> 01:46:55,360 Speaker 1: night on one of my shows. I said it somewhere. 1830 01:46:56,439 --> 01:46:59,120 Speaker 1: But yeah, I if you started wearing a Maga had 1831 01:46:59,160 --> 01:47:01,519 Speaker 1: in New York City Ramaga mask in New York City, 1832 01:47:02,920 --> 01:47:04,800 Speaker 1: people would no longer give you credit for being a 1833 01:47:04,920 --> 01:47:08,479 Speaker 1: person of science who cares about people.
