The 37 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 1: Blaze dot Com. A matter of fact, today is kind 38 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 1: of a bit of a Blaze anniversary. If we look 39 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 1: at two thousand and ten, it was just a couple 40 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: of days before the Blaze launched. The Blaze launched and 41 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: a soft launch on August two thousand and ten, and 42 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 1: then went full full on in UH September, and that 43 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: was the Blaze dot com. But twenty August was the 44 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 1: rally on the Mall in Washington, d C. A rally 45 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,839 Speaker 1: that so many people took exception to. But a couple 46 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 1: hundred thousand people gathered on the mall by the reflection 47 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:52,679 Speaker 1: pool and the steps underneath the Lincoln Monument and UH 48 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 1: Glenn Beck led a rally called Restoring Honor, and I 49 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: was part of it. I was there, I covered it. 50 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: I was part of a group called the Project, and 51 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 1: then shortly thereafter joined the Blaze dot com. It was 52 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: an amazing day because CBS News insisted there were about 53 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 1: seventy thousand people there, and if you looked at the 54 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 1: estimates from the parks, the National Park Service, they talked 55 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 1: about a couple of hundred thousand people, and there were 56 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 1: folks who said it was a half a million people. 57 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 1: I will tell you from being there in the middle 58 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 1: of it that rally, that event, Restoring Honor, probably had 59 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: between two fifty and two people. Just looking at the 60 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 1: crowd density on both sides, of the monument and being 61 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: a part of an amazing day. When we left them 62 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 1: all that day, it was cleaner than when we got there. 63 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 1: I kid you not. The people who showed up were 64 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: told it's not about the tea party, it's not about 65 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: wearing your little tri corner hats. We don't want signs. 66 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 1: We just want to be there to talk about restoring 67 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 1: honor to America. And I posted a link back to 68 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 1: a video that I put up the next day, a 69 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 1: video with a song my brother wrote, I have a 70 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: brother who's a composer. So if you haven't seen I 71 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 1: hear America calling. It's out there. But this is also 72 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: the fifty five anniversary of an even more famous and 73 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 1: more important obviously by many, many multiples over, a more 74 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: important speech delivered in the same location as the Restoring 75 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:40,920 Speaker 1: Honor event in Nree on August, the Reverend Dr Martin 76 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 1: Luther King Jr. Gave his I Have a Dream speech 77 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 1: in Washington, d C. I was a very young boy 78 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: at the time, and we watched it as a family 79 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 1: growing up in Chicago. It was a very big deal. 80 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 1: I remember my parents talking about Dr King, and I 81 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:02,720 Speaker 1: remember that speech being important growing up and it's not 82 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,600 Speaker 1: that long. So I will tell you I encourage you 83 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 1: as as citizens of this great country. If you've never 84 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:15,719 Speaker 1: watched the whole thing, go to the YouTube and watch it. Yes, 85 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 1: I said the YouTube's intentionally, but go to the YouTube's 86 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 1: and watch it. It is nothing short of inspiring. If 87 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:28,800 Speaker 1: Dr King's words about America and what we are supposed 88 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 1: to be do not strike a chord with you, you 89 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 1: need to get to the doctor immediately. And my my 90 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 1: favorite moment from it, I think a lot of a 91 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,160 Speaker 1: lot of folks favorite moment. I'll just give you a 92 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 1: little snippet from right in the middle of it. It's 93 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 1: it's not even twenty minutes long. Out of your day. 94 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: You owe it to yourself to watch history as it 95 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 1: was recorded. But here's a little bit of Dr King's 96 00:05:52,480 --> 00:06:01,719 Speaker 1: dream speech from this day, fifty five years ago. Live 97 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 1: poor little children one day live in a nation where 98 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: they will not be judged by the color of about skin, 99 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 1: but by the concenterback character. I have a breath. Imagine 100 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 1: imagine seeing all those faces on the mall in Washington, 101 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 1: d C. A massive crowd extending past the reflection pond 102 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,839 Speaker 1: all the way back to the Washington Monument and Dr 103 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:32,919 Speaker 1: King Stanley there giving that iconic address that really wasn't 104 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 1: just for those people there, it was for the entire nation. 105 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: An amazing moment. I know, I get all all fired 106 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: up about this, but these are the moments in American 107 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 1: history that tell me just how great of a nation 108 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 1: we are. It's not the days when we saw the 109 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: fighting on cable TV. It's not the name calling we see, 110 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:58,360 Speaker 1: it's not what I I lost my mind over ESPN today, 111 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 1: Tiger Woods was asked if and Tiger Woods was asked 112 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 1: to make a comment on the president. Tiger Woods a 113 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: guy whose job it is to hit a little white 114 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: ball over grass and then followed the little white ball 115 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: and hit it fewer times than other guys hitting the 116 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,400 Speaker 1: little white ball, and if he does it the fewest, 117 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 1: he gets a giant check. That's Tiger woods job. He's 118 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 1: not a schooled political scientist. He's not someone who studied 119 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:35,120 Speaker 1: at at Harvard or at Princeton or Yale or any 120 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: of the the institutions of great political learning in our country. 121 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 1: So when Tiger Woods is asked about President Trump, and 122 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: he says, I think we need to respect the office. 123 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 1: And Stephen A. Smith and Max Kellerman lose their minds 124 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,559 Speaker 1: and basically speak out in complete contradiction to what Dr 125 00:07:55,680 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 1: King just talked about. I lose my mind. I lose, 126 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 1: absolutely lose my mind. And I go back to a 127 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 1: statement I made on Twitter earlier today. I remember when 128 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 1: MTV was music television. I remember when A and E 129 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 1: was arts and entertainment and not the Kardashians. But I 130 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 1: remember when the History Channel actually taught history. But the 131 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: the ESPN channel has fallen off the beam and is 132 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 1: no longer really focused on sports. Instead, they appear to 133 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 1: be focused on politics. So when we we have this 134 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:41,439 Speaker 1: moment with Max Kellerman and Stephen A. Smith melting down, 135 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: I should give you a little bit of that one too, 136 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: because this happened on ESPN. This is Kellerman and Stephen A. Smith, 137 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 1: two guys who are paid a whole lot of money 138 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:56,440 Speaker 1: supposedly on a sports network, are going all political. And 139 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: to me, it's progressive indoctrination. I letta say something abo 140 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: what Tiger Woods say. It really bothers me. I don't 141 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 1: I am angry at what Tiger Woods said because it 142 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 1: is it is a thoughtless statement dressed up as a 143 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 1: thoughtful statement. Tiger Woods chases a white ball over grass. 144 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 1: Tiger Woods hits a white ball. He does it better 145 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 1: than of the people on the planet. That's his job. 146 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 1: His job is not to be a political pundit. But 147 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 1: you go ahead, Max Kellerman, you accuse him of being thoughtless. 148 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 1: Either holds in contempt the intelligence of the people who 149 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 1: hear it, or else. It's just a stupid thing to say. 150 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 1: Let me tell you what I mean the if to 151 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,559 Speaker 1: say that the office you must have respect for the office, 152 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 1: Tiger be clear. Are you saying that the office therefore 153 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 1: confers respect onto its occupant, it's present temporary occupant. No, 154 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: what the what the having respect for the office means, principally, 155 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 1: in my view, is the office holders should have respect 156 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 1: for the office. We are all set to a standard, 157 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 1: were held to a standard of behavior. We had our 158 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 1: jobs right, people in their in their daily lives. The president, 159 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: if anything, is held to a higher standard of behavior. 160 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 1: It is not such that we have such great respect 161 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 1: for the office that, no matter what the behavior of 162 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: its occupant, we must therefore respect it's occupant because of 163 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:22,200 Speaker 1: the office. No, Tiger Woods is being you said, being 164 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 1: slick here, he's being slick. We must respect the office. Therefore, 165 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:28,319 Speaker 1: that confers respect to the occupant. Tiger, is that what 166 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 1: you're saying. If that's what you're saying, that is a 167 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: stupid comment. So here's a sportscaster who is now suddenly 168 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 1: a political prognosticator abundant if you will, saying that Tiger Woods, 169 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,680 Speaker 1: a guy who is not in politics at all. I 170 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 1: don't ever remember him talking politics ever, is stupid because 171 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 1: he wants us to respect the office of the presidency. 172 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 1: But if you think that Max Kellerman has lowered the 173 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: bar as far as it can go, Stephen A. Smith 174 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 1: is about to play the race card and called Tiger Woods, well, 175 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 1: he's not black. Listen, listen to this. Remember we just 176 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 1: we just heard Dr King talking about the content of 177 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:18,079 Speaker 1: someone's character, not the color of their skin. That just happened. 178 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: We just played you a clip from fifty five years ago. 179 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 1: But all Stephen A. Smith can see is someone's color. 180 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 1: And if you are a certain color, you are supposed 181 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 1: to act a certain way. Apparently ESPN is telling us 182 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 1: don't But I don't even know if he believes that. 183 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 1: That's what all. We don't know what Tiger Woods believe. 184 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 1: He's cambl Nation, He's not black when he got arrest. 185 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 1: He's camblination, he's not black. What in the hell is that? 186 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 1: Talk about categorizing people just based on their racial makeup. ESPN, 187 00:11:55,840 --> 00:12:01,719 Speaker 1: you should be suspending at least these people for being racist. 188 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 1: How dare you? He's chamblination, he's not black. This is 189 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:12,520 Speaker 1: the most embarrassing thing I've ever seen. And it's all 190 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 1: because the progressive network owned by Disney, Yes, the mouse. 191 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 1: Let's go right back to ABC and Stephanopolis and ABC 192 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:24,080 Speaker 1: News and the connections to the Clintons and the butt 193 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 1: hurt liberals who are now still freaking out almost two 194 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: years after Donald Trump won the election. They're just not 195 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 1: going to give it up. And they've gotten so far 196 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 1: as to lose their minds over Tiger Woods saying that 197 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 1: we should respect the office of the presidency. I I 198 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 1: just don't know what to say, people, I do not. 199 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 1: I watched this and my eyes rolled so far back 200 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 1: up in my head that I saw my own brain. 201 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:59,199 Speaker 1: It's just unbelievable. Am I wrong that I missed the 202 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 1: boat on this one? Him? Is it okay? No, it's 203 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 1: not okay. MTV has now become a progressive outlet preaching 204 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 1: and they they're gonna do a big push for mid 205 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 1: terms for the vote you watch.

I know that I didn't 208 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:20,439 Speaker 1: mind it when it was just telling people get out 209 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:22,720 Speaker 1: to vote. When when you tell people how to vote 210 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 1: and you're delivering messages on every program And now ESPN 211 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:33,199 Speaker 1: is is shaming Tiger Woods because he doesn't march in 212 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 1: lock step with them, because gee, his color means he 213 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,960 Speaker 1: should be thinking this way, but he's not, so we 214 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 1: have to call him out and say he's stupid.

I lived in New York City, in Midtown 244 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 1: Manhattan for twenty four years. I think it was right 245 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 1: over by the U N so not far from Times Square. 246 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 1: So when a news report pop saying Time Squares being evacuated, 247 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 1: I'm like, what what could go on? You guys know 248 00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 1: Bucks history with helping to catch the Time Time Square 249 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 1: bomber in his um his work with the New York 250 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 1: City Task Force, the Terror Task Force, so I'm acutely 251 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 1: attuned to that. And then I read it was a 252 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 1: swarm of bees that took over a section around a 253 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 1: hot dog stand in Times Square. And no, it's not 254 00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 1: the boobies that are there in Times Square, because we 255 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:30,520 Speaker 1: have that too. Since its summer. There are a bunch 256 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 1: of young ladies who wear nothing but paint and panties 257 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 1: and walk around Times Square asking for money from people, 258 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 1: and people give it to them too. They also give 259 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 1: him a lot of creepy looks. But bees, bees forced 260 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 1: an evacuation in Times Square. Today, bees will swarm even 261 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 1: in the concrete jungle of Midtown Manhattan, the crossroads of 262 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 1: the world. If you will. I said I was gonna 263 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,560 Speaker 1: get after CNN, and I will. I need Time and 264 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 1: a lot of time to get into the Alison Camerada 265 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:05,919 Speaker 1: Johnson new news story. So maybe we can just follow 266 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 1: up on the Landi Davis story. Landi Davis a Clinton operative, 267 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 1: a guy who has so so much tight links to 268 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 1: the Clintons. There is no daylight between them. When we 269 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,920 Speaker 1: were kids in Catholic school, the nuns used to come 270 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 1: up to guys and girls who were too close together 271 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:31,160 Speaker 1: and say, leave some room for the Holy Spirit. Well, 272 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:35,240 Speaker 1: between Landi Davis and the Clintons, there is no room 273 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 1: for the Holy Spirit. I can guarantee you that. So 274 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 1: when Landy Davis ends up as Michael Cohen's attorney, former 275 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 1: Donald Trump attorney now plea copying guy. When Landy Davis 276 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 1: ends up as Michael Cohen's attorney and I realize he's 277 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 1: so close to the Clintons, every antenna on my body 278 00:17:55,960 --> 00:18:00,879 Speaker 1: is going this is problems. Landi Davis puts a go 279 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,880 Speaker 1: fund Me campaign up to try and raise money so 280 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 1: Avanadi's legal bills won't be too big. Kind of weasely 281 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 1: thing to do, right, Yeah, I think so. And then 282 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 1: he goes on after the Plea announcement, he goes down 283 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 1: a media march and says and tells Axios and others 284 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 1: that in fact, his client has more to say. His 285 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 1: client has more to say, and there will be much more. 286 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:37,679 Speaker 1: So Lannie Davis really, um, I can't tell you what 287 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:41,720 Speaker 1: a weasel this guy is. He he told CNN one 288 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 1: thing that in a bombshell report that Michael Cohen was 289 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 1: prepared to tell Robert Moadonald Trump knew in advance of 290 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 1: the Trump Tower meeting. Uh now he's saying that was wrong, 291 00:18:55,840 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 1: and he and CNN we're saying anonymous so horses told 292 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:06,880 Speaker 1: him that anonymous sources sources being plural. It turns out 293 00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:10,639 Speaker 1: that Landy Davis was the only source on this. Landy 294 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:14,400 Speaker 1: Davis is the guy behind it. Landy Davis has now 295 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:18,160 Speaker 1: lied to the mainstream media and now he's kind of 296 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:22,719 Speaker 1: walking it back, but CNN will not walk it back. 297 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:27,400 Speaker 1: CNN is still telling the world that they believe there 298 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 1: are anonymous sources. Landi Davis is a big time liar, 299 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,880 Speaker 1: and CNN you know what you get on this one. 300 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:38,880 Speaker 1: You get a big fake news slap. We'll we'll get 301 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,199 Speaker 1: to more CNN fake news and what they did with 302 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:45,720 Speaker 1: Alison Camarada and Johnson Knew next on The buck Sexton 303 00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: Show with Michael Pelca.

I 305 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 1: was I talking over the intro. I guess a little bit. 306 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 1: I'm told Brandon, that's okay, a little bit. We have 307 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 1: a lot to do tonight. I'm just itching to get 308 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,399 Speaker 1: to all the topics. I have to get to the 309 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 1: question about the pot and the breast milk. I have 310 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 1: to talk about that. We got to get to the 311 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: Catholic thing. I'm ticked off at Peter uh omar Rossa, 312 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:32,120 Speaker 1: who we banned last week. She's trying to make herself 313 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 1: relevant again. She says there's going to be a race war, 314 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 1: that Trump wants a race war. Come on, go away, 315 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 1: go back into your omar Rossa hole wherever you go. 316 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 1: Isn't she supposed to be on a reality show somewhere, 317 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 1: locked up for six or eight weeks, just hoping. I 318 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:53,360 Speaker 1: guess we'll get into that. Uh. There's some primaries happening tonight. 319 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 1: I don't know full here out of Arizona while the 320 00:20:56,000 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 1: show's on, but that's an interesting primary to watch. There's 321 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:04,680 Speaker 1: news out of the New York primary race for governor 322 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:07,919 Speaker 1: and the Texas race for Ted Cruises seat that we 323 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:11,399 Speaker 1: have to get into. Some funny stuff happening in there, 324 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 1: the the the sex and the city lady who's running 325 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 1: against Cuomo. And I think it's part of an Overton 326 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:26,120 Speaker 1: window move to shift that political window in New York 327 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:29,680 Speaker 1: just a little bit farther left. Cynthy Nixon had no 328 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 1: chance in hell of ever getting elected in New York State, 329 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 1: but her candidacy allows the Liberal Party to push the 330 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 1: Overton window a little bit farther to the left, and 331 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:49,680 Speaker 1: it makes Cuomo look more palatable. I know that sounds machiavellian, 332 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 1: doesn't And I know it sounds like it just a 333 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 1: little too calculated, But I believe this Democratic Party is calculating. 334 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 1: I believe Octavio Cortez, so that that's her name, Acasio Cortez. 335 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 1: Why do I call her Octavio. I have a friend 336 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:09,879 Speaker 1: named Octavio. That's why I believe she's part of the plan. 337 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:16,000 Speaker 1: That they package it in an attractive vehicle so that 338 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:19,120 Speaker 1: people will go, well, you know, she says some things 339 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:23,199 Speaker 1: we could at behind, but she's so crazy. But I 340 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:25,479 Speaker 1: do think that in the case of the debate, so 341 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 1: I know I got a d D momented there. In 342 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 1: the case of these debates, the this woman Cynthy Nixon 343 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:44,920 Speaker 1: has now demanded that the temperature for the debate between 344 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 1: herself and Governor Cuomo be seventy six degrees because it's 345 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:55,359 Speaker 1: sexist if the room is any cooler, I kid you not. 346 00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 1: I kid you not. That's what is going on. Synthing 347 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:04,160 Speaker 1: Nixon has now demanded that her debate against Governor Cuomo 348 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 1: be in a room that's seventies six degrees because she's 349 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 1: always so cold. Well, maybe if you would eat a 350 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,879 Speaker 1: sandwich and you wouldn't be just bones and skin, you 351 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 1: wouldn't be cold all the time. I'm just saying, I 352 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: don't believe she ever had a snowballs chance in hell. 353 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,439 Speaker 1: I think her campaign is being underwritten by the party 354 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 1: to push the party farther left without making Cuomo come 355 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,440 Speaker 1: out and make those direct moves to the left. I'm 356 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 1: just saying. And in the case of Ted Cruz against 357 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 1: this guy Beato, whose name is not Beato, it's a 358 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,359 Speaker 1: made up name to make him sound more palatable to 359 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 1: the Latino voters in Texas. The way that the New 360 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 1: York Mayor Warren Wilhelm. Oh no, that's not the mayor. 361 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:51,200 Speaker 1: His real name is Warren Wilhelm. Build the Blasio changed 362 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:57,880 Speaker 1: his name to be more voter friendly. Same thing with Beato. 363 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:01,920 Speaker 1: Oh Rourke, he wanted to be one of the cool kids. 364 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 1: But he was supposed to debate Ted Cruz this Friday. 365 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:08,399 Speaker 1: They were supposed to have the first of a series 366 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 1: of debates in there their fight for the Senate in 367 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 1: that seat in Texas. Now, the last time Ted Cruise 368 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 1: was elected to the Senate in Texas, he won and 369 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 1: it appeared to be a big margin of victory. But 370 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 1: the Democrats identified eight counties in Texas, and eight counties 371 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:32,639 Speaker 1: is not a lot where Ted Cruz barely won. And 372 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 1: they have driven voter registration specifically to Hispanic communities. And 373 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:41,399 Speaker 1: now you have a candidate named Beato who sounds like 374 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:45,080 Speaker 1: he might be a Hispanic man, doesn't he. They have 375 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:49,760 Speaker 1: targeted those eight counties in an effort to turn Texas blue. 376 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:53,399 Speaker 1: It was six years ago I was part of something 377 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 1: called the test Studo project that was a Republican effort 378 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 1: to fight the Democratic effort to turn Texas blue the 379 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 1: way they turned Colorado purple. So this is going on 380 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 1: the Democrats have been deeply engaged in trying to get 381 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:13,000 Speaker 1: rid of Ted Cruise for quite some time, and they 382 00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 1: had a plan the day he was elected. And now 383 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 1: that plan is is coming into shape. The races within 384 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,920 Speaker 1: single digits, and there's a really good chance that Ted 385 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:27,560 Speaker 1: Cruz may not win that seat. So I'm telling you 386 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 1: if you were engaged in the mid term elections, which 387 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,880 Speaker 1: were now less than seventy days away from if you're 388 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 1: engaged and you're playing on voting, it is incumbent upon 389 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:40,479 Speaker 1: you if you want to retain the progress that we 390 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 1: have made as a nation in both economic strength, military strength, 391 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 1: the consumer confidence, the direction we are going. If you 392 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:50,480 Speaker 1: want to maintain it, it's up to you to take 393 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:53,600 Speaker 1: somebody to the polls with you. You need to drag 394 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 1: somebody's but to vote on election day. All right, I'm 395 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:01,199 Speaker 1: done with my little ramped I didn't even get to 396 00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:03,959 Speaker 1: the the CNN story, but I will get to that. 397 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:07,440 Speaker 1: I I know there's so much going on today, So 398 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:12,119 Speaker 1: I have another d n C story that we we 399 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 1: have to jump into as well. The d n C. 400 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 1: They are just making it too easy to make fun 401 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:20,159 Speaker 1: of themselves. And I hope, I hope I hope. I 402 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 1: hope we can get we can keep the GOP on 403 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:27,440 Speaker 1: track to get through the midterms. I I still think 404 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 1: there's a fairly decent chance we'll lose the House. And 405 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:32,200 Speaker 1: if we lose the House, you know what happens. Maxine 406 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 1: Waters gets freed from Nancy Pelosi's basement where she's been 407 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:40,119 Speaker 1: for the last two months, and she starts up with 408 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:43,439 Speaker 1: her campaign again. Right I'm gonna say and peach forty 409 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 1: five every day and page forty five every day, and 410 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 1: page forty five every day. That's what's gonna happen if 411 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 1: we don't make sure the blue wave is nothing but 412 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:59,160 Speaker 1: a trickle right now, I think it could go on 413 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 1: one of two either way. It's a going flip right now. 414 00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:06,879 Speaker 1: And if you believe the posters, it's a faith to complete, 415 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:12,880 Speaker 1: which means game over for the Trump train going full speed. Okay, now, 416 00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 1: what happened on CNN? What happened on CNN? Alison Camearrata 417 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 1: had Johnson New Knew on the show on her show, 418 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:28,399 Speaker 1: and she invited Johnson now on the show to talk 419 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,959 Speaker 1: about John McCain. The life and legacy of John McCain. 420 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 1: That was the title of the segment. So they talked 421 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:37,960 Speaker 1: about John McCain for a couple of minutes, and then 422 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 1: Alison Camerata flip the script and we learned what she 423 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 1: was really about. We learned what she was really going 424 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:48,879 Speaker 1: after check this out. So, Governor, what do you think 425 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:55,080 Speaker 1: about President Trump rejecting the practice of putting out an 426 00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:59,120 Speaker 1: official White House statement about John McCain's service and sacrifice. 427 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:01,879 Speaker 1: So that that's the question, what do you think? So 428 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 1: what do you think Johnson know about the President reject 429 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 1: gang couldn't have same with any more animosity, rejecting the 430 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:16,160 Speaker 1: White House statement honoring John McCain's service and sacrifice. Well, 431 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 1: this this story comes from a Washington Post story. The 432 00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 1: Washington Post claims Donald Trump rejected the White House statement 433 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:29,439 Speaker 1: praising John McCain, and CNN carried that water for the 434 00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 1: Washington Post. But Johnson now new delivers a masterclass in 435 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:41,000 Speaker 1: reflecting and deflecting and squashing cameraradius bias. Look that that 436 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 1: that was printed in the Washington Post, And I have 437 00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 1: to be honest with you, I don't give much credence 438 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:50,040 Speaker 1: to what we also have that reporting. Yeah, well the 439 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: same thing applies, Alice. He laughs as she says we 440 00:28:55,000 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 1: also have that reporting. He chuckles and says, yeah, uh, 441 00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 1: the same thing applies, Allison. How do you not love 442 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 1: this guy? But it didn't stop there, because now Alison 443 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 1: Camerada delivered what she thought was going to be a 444 00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 1: gut punch to Johnson. Una, what do you think about this, 445 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 1: Donald Trump rejecting a statement honoring John McCain? What are 446 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 1: you thinking? He goes, well, Washington Post don't give too 447 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 1: much credibility. Well, we reported that too, sir, and he 448 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 1: laughs and says same to you. So now he just 449 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 1: counterpunched and delivered a body blow verbal. Of course, I'm 450 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 1: not advocating for violence at all, not against Allison Camerada 451 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 1: or anyone at CNN. I could understand it, but I 452 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 1: will not ever support it. But so here's Camerata. Now 453 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:58,240 Speaker 1: she's upset. You come on CNN, and we appreciate you 454 00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 1: coming on CNN, and we appreciate shape your take on it, 455 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 1: but I don't appreciate you denigrating our reporting. I think 456 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 1: that you know we have excellent reporters here. But are 457 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 1: you saying that you don't want to believe that you 458 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 1: don't want to believe that President Trump would do that 459 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: about saying that I don't want to comment on a 460 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:20,600 Speaker 1: report that I haven't satisfied myself as correct. So Johnson 461 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 1: Una came back with a gracious response to rather ungracious claim. 462 00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:30,360 Speaker 1: She's dressing him down, Governor, and then she pauses for 463 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 1: a couple of secons, you came in our house? How 464 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:38,040 Speaker 1: dare you? Sir? And he goes, look, all I'm saying 465 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:40,200 Speaker 1: is I don't know if the report to real. I 466 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 1: don't know if I trusted, I don't know if I 467 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 1: believe it. She still can't accept it, and she presses 468 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:51,040 Speaker 1: on if that report were true, I'm not going to 469 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 1: answer the hypothetical. It's not hypothetical. This is our reporting. 470 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 1: We have rock solid sources in the White House. There 471 00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 1: was a statement about you McCain. I'm here to talk 472 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 1: about John McCain, as I remember him, I'm not here 473 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 1: to talk about the press. Is handling of of a 474 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 1: difference between the White House UH and the press corps 475 00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 1: at this time. So brilliant response again from Sunu, a 476 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,479 Speaker 1: statesman like response to say, are you invited me here 477 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:24,720 Speaker 1: to talk about John McCain. I'm not here to opine 478 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,920 Speaker 1: on a difference of opinion between the White House and 479 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:32,200 Speaker 1: the Press Corps, and she goes it's a difference of opinion. 480 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 1: She still can't give it up. Talk about an ungracious host. 481 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:38,400 Speaker 1: But it gets a little worse. The press is handling 482 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 1: it's President Trump's handling of John McCain's death. Look, John 483 00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:49,640 Speaker 1: McCain was a great American who deserves to be recognized 484 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 1: as a great American. Um he is being recognized by 485 00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 1: his colleagues, and the friends are his friends around Milandia. 486 00:31:56,840 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 1: Trump has certainly put out an exceptionally strong statement outlining 487 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 1: the appreciation for his service. The White House has recognized 488 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:09,360 Speaker 1: the sorrow of the family, and and I think Americans 489 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,680 Speaker 1: ought to be looking at the positive side, not trying 490 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 1: to create a division amongst people who are in joint 491 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:21,800 Speaker 1: uh sorrow warning a great American. So another great statement, 492 00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 1: Johnson un basically laying it out. The White House put 493 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 1: out Milania Trump's statement, the colleagues of John McCain or 494 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:32,040 Speaker 1: mourning him. If he saw today they were standing up 495 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,200 Speaker 1: and crying in the Senate. And fine, that's great, all 496 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:35,880 Speaker 1: well and good. You knew the guy, you loved him, 497 00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:40,120 Speaker 1: you miss him. Alison Camearad of CNN cannot give it up. 498 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:44,280 Speaker 1: She continues, are you satisfied the President Trump's statement goes 499 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 1: far enough? I suspect there'll be additional statements over time. 500 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 1: And I think, Uh, this effort to try and create 501 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 1: a cleavage there really does disturb me. So he said, 502 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:59,720 Speaker 1: this effort by you, the media, to try and create 503 00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:04,480 Speaker 1: a cleavage there disturbs me. The word cleavage seemed to 504 00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 1: confuse Alison Camerata, and I I admit I've never used 505 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 1: the word cleavage in that frame, in that reference. But 506 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:18,360 Speaker 1: John Sunu just delivered that. Camerata can't seem to quite 507 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:23,920 Speaker 1: get it, and she has to ask him to repeat it. 508 00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 1: That cleavage between the White House and and the and 509 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 1: those that are morning John McCain. It is this effort 510 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 1: by the press to accentuate the negative that I think 511 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 1: has created the climate that prevents UH in the long term, 512 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:47,040 Speaker 1: the bipartisanship that John McCain supported. So Snu with another 513 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:52,760 Speaker 1: great statement, it's the press who is creating the spread 514 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:57,120 Speaker 1: between the two sides of the aisle. There's more to this, 515 00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 1: and there's more great I know, I know what's going on, 516 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 1: but this you never get a moment like this with 517 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:08,799 Speaker 1: the CNN anchor acting this ridiculous more of Alison Camerata 518 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:13,760 Speaker 1: and her ridiculous meltdown, her attempts to shame Johnson UNU 519 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 1: into attacking the President, which he did not sun a masterclass. 520 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:22,000 Speaker 1: Michael Pelca filling in for Buck Sexton on the Buck 521 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:32,880 Speaker 1: Sexton Show. We'll be right back, Michael Pelca in for 522 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:36,440 Speaker 1: my buddy Buck Sexton tonight, and we're trying to get 523 00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 1: to everything. But I got really wrapped up in this 524 00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:45,719 Speaker 1: Alison Camerata embarrassing, embarrassing attack on Johnson unw She brought 525 00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 1: him in to talk about John McCain, Remember the life 526 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 1: of John McCain, and then tried to make it an 527 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 1: attack on Donald Trump. And when we last left the clip, 528 00:34:56,239 --> 00:35:01,239 Speaker 1: this was still going on with Camerata going after she's 529 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 1: already dressed him down once going Governor, we invited you here, 530 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:09,520 Speaker 1: and uh, you're just not you're not being good. But 531 00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 1: let's see what what's happening now. I don't want to 532 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:16,960 Speaker 1: be a part of rubbing whatever salt is in whatever 533 00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:20,560 Speaker 1: wound there may be, because I think that just adds 534 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:25,400 Speaker 1: to the division. I'm here because I lost a good friend. 535 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:29,240 Speaker 1: I wanted to express my concern about that. I wanted 536 00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:32,600 Speaker 1: to applaud what he contributed to the country. I wanted 537 00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:35,920 Speaker 1: to underscore the relationship he had with the state of 538 00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:39,080 Speaker 1: New Hampshire. And I'm not here to play the political 539 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 1: games that some of the press want to play at 540 00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:44,240 Speaker 1: this moment of of what I think is great sorrow 541 00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:47,759 Speaker 1: for the country. So great statement. Right, you should say 542 00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 1: thank you and goodbye. We had you here. Camerata can't 543 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:53,400 Speaker 1: let go. Just to be clear, we don't see it 544 00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:58,319 Speaker 1: as a game. Just to be clear, we don't see 545 00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:01,480 Speaker 1: it as a game. Soon news only reaction is to laugh. 546 00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:07,440 Speaker 1: And to be clear, the press didn't create whatever division 547 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:13,240 Speaker 1: exists that President Trump feels that allowed him to spike 548 00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:16,719 Speaker 1: the statement that General John Kelly wanted him to put 549 00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:23,160 Speaker 1: out about John McCain's sacrifice. The press, everybody, everybody, everybody 550 00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:27,480 Speaker 1: reflects their concerns in ways that are consistent with whatever 551 00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:31,360 Speaker 1: they feel. I've expressed my concern, uh the loss of 552 00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:33,840 Speaker 1: John McCain, who I think was a great American, a 553 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:37,759 Speaker 1: great American hero in the military, a great American hero 554 00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:41,399 Speaker 1: in the political process, and frankly, a great American hero 555 00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:44,879 Speaker 1: on a personal level. Two people that knew him well, 556 00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:47,440 Speaker 1: and it is on those three levels that I sensed 557 00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:51,760 Speaker 1: the loss, and I have expressed my my feelings of 558 00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:55,719 Speaker 1: of sorrow for him having passed, and my expression of 559 00:36:55,800 --> 00:37:00,000 Speaker 1: feelings of sorrow for for his personal family who lost him, 560 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:03,520 Speaker 1: for a country who lost the great American hero. She 561 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:09,239 Speaker 1: can't let go. She just cannot let go. Alison Camerata, 562 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:14,880 Speaker 1: I hope you watch this and learn something about graciousness 563 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:19,759 Speaker 1: and about the truth. The truth has no agenda. Apparently 564 00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:23,719 Speaker 1: CNN does Michael Pelca in for Buck Sexton next hour, 565 00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 1: Emily Zanati, come on back me on calls home.

But this hour I want to 583 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:54,640 Speaker 1: hear from you about the question of the day. In 584 00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:58,520 Speaker 1: my mind, I was raised Roman Catholic, grew up in 585 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:03,120 Speaker 1: the South Side of Chicago, went to Catholic schools for kindergarten, 586 00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:08,040 Speaker 1: grammar school, high school, and uh. Raised in a house 587 00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,920 Speaker 1: with nine kids, very Catholic. We had a red phone. 588 00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:15,399 Speaker 1: I always believed a hotline to Rome where the Pope 589 00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:18,960 Speaker 1: would call and say we need more more kids. And 590 00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:22,120 Speaker 1: so my parents were dutiful Catholics, and we went to 591 00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:25,000 Speaker 1: our Lady of Perpetual Help Church and then St. Philip 592 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:28,280 Speaker 1: the Apostle all that stuff, and my faith has always 593 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:31,160 Speaker 1: been part of my life, and now it's shaken by 594 00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:35,400 Speaker 1: the scandals and the gigantic nature of the scandals that 595 00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 1: we're hearing about, and my heart is breaking for my 596 00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:44,680 Speaker 1: faith and the good people in my faith, and I 597 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:48,800 Speaker 1: wonder if it's time for the pope to step down. 598 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:52,600 Speaker 1: So I want to hear from you guys to eight 599 00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:57,400 Speaker 1: four buck eight four four D to A to five 600 00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 1: the phone number here. And I needed to bring in 601 00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:05,560 Speaker 1: some help on this. And there is a young lady 602 00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 1: I respect greatly for her work as a journalist, but 603 00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:12,280 Speaker 1: also her faith work. I learned more about obscure saints 604 00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:15,719 Speaker 1: that I never knew about when I read or talk 605 00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:20,320 Speaker 1: to Emily Zanati from the Daily Wire. So Emily agreed 606 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:22,520 Speaker 1: to carve out a little bit of time from her 607 00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:25,920 Speaker 1: life tonight and join us. Welcome, my friend, how are you. 608 00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 1: I'm good? Thanks for having me anytime.

Uh. 611 00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:39,400 Speaker 1: Some of it's quirky, some of it's kind of freaky, 612 00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:42,360 Speaker 1: but your faith stuff, I think is is always spot 613 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:46,359 Speaker 1: on a solid Are you feeling Are you feeling some 614 00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:49,040 Speaker 1: of the pain and gut punching that I'm feeling as 615 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:53,560 Speaker 1: a Catholic with all the news of late Oh yeah, absolutely. 616 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:55,920 Speaker 1: I don't think it's possible not to feel like you've 617 00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 1: been punched on the gut. And I feel like it 618 00:40:57,640 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 1: happens every day, like it does goods, This gets a 619 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:04,680 Speaker 1: little bit worse every day. I think it hasn't stopped 620 00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:07,760 Speaker 1: since I believe it was two weeks ago August eighteen, 621 00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:11,879 Speaker 1: so we had the first news of Pennsylvania and the 622 00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:17,560 Speaker 1: Philadelphi or Pittsburgh diocese overrun with about three complaints of 623 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:22,759 Speaker 1: essentially pedophile and pedder asked priests. And now I feel 624 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:26,600 Speaker 1: like we've just kept moving up the line. Yeah, it's 625 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:31,120 Speaker 1: it's frightening how how pervasive it seems to have gone. 626 00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:34,720 Speaker 1: And I get mad. I get mad at the numbers 627 00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:36,960 Speaker 1: that I see when they start touring on the numbers 628 00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:40,880 Speaker 1: not just of the victims, but the dollars. Because the 629 00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:46,600 Speaker 1: church basically asks every week, like every faith group does, says, hey, 630 00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:49,080 Speaker 1: we need a little help to roof fund is getting thin, 631 00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:51,520 Speaker 1: we got the heater needs to be replaced. Can you 632 00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:55,640 Speaker 1: help us out? And then I read about stories claiming, 633 00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:59,880 Speaker 1: well this this priest was retired and they bought it 634 00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:03,080 Speaker 1: two point six million dollar mansion for him to live 635 00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:07,120 Speaker 1: out his life in. And I just feel like, what 636 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:09,640 Speaker 1: are we doing here? When is this going to stop? 637 00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:15,239 Speaker 1: And what happened today with with is it coupe or 638 00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:23,120 Speaker 1: coupe out of Chicago? Cardinal stupid? What happened there? So 639 00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 1: this goes back to something that happened over the weekend. 640 00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:29,320 Speaker 1: On Saturday night, we had this eleven page letter drop 641 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:34,080 Speaker 1: from Archbishop Vigaro, who I think I'm pronouncing that right, 642 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:40,640 Speaker 1: who basically said that Theodore mccaric are former Cardinal Theodore 643 00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:47,920 Speaker 1: mccaricic who was basically stripped for having had years of 644 00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:52,560 Speaker 1: relations with seminarians and just ran Russia over at least 645 00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:56,600 Speaker 1: three dioceses, did whatever he pleased, had relationships with whomever 646 00:42:56,719 --> 00:43:01,439 Speaker 1: he pleased. The allegations and this letter and Saturday were 647 00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:06,360 Speaker 1: that Pope Benedict had taken some measures against mccaic and 648 00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:10,279 Speaker 1: had designated him as he had to stay where he 649 00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:13,640 Speaker 1: was and he had to live a prayerful and penitential life. 650 00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:15,719 Speaker 1: He could not go out in public, he was not 651 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:19,520 Speaker 1: supposed to travel, he was not to represent the church. Supposedly, 652 00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:22,799 Speaker 1: Pope Benedict levied this very harsh punishment it took a 653 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:25,960 Speaker 1: while to get back to mccaricic he didn't really follow 654 00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:30,800 Speaker 1: it during Pope Benedict's rain, but once it turned over 655 00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:34,080 Speaker 1: to Pope Francis, it appears according to this letter, the 656 00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:38,480 Speaker 1: allegations are that Francis basically reinstated him, that said, you know, 657 00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:42,000 Speaker 1: ignore all the allegations against you. You're going to be fine, 658 00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:45,160 Speaker 1: You're going to be able to travel, You're going to 659 00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:50,680 Speaker 1: be a close counselor to the Vatican. And in this 660 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:56,000 Speaker 1: letter they also named several other people who were collaborators 661 00:43:56,000 --> 00:44:00,000 Speaker 1: of sorts with mccaic, including Chicago's Cardinal Blaze Stupit, who 662 00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:02,520 Speaker 1: a day went on television and now, of course we 663 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:07,040 Speaker 1: know that this letter contains very serious allegations if they 664 00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:10,200 Speaker 1: are true. In fact, the Pope has done some very 665 00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:12,920 Speaker 1: bad things or has looked the other way while some 666 00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 1: very bad things have been done. But today arts are sorry. 667 00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:21,399 Speaker 1: Cardinal Stupitch went on TV and basically said, you know what, 668 00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:23,640 Speaker 1: the Pope has more important things to do. You guys 669 00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:26,120 Speaker 1: don't need to be bugging him with these allegations of 670 00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:30,320 Speaker 1: a of a global child sex network that he covered 671 00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:34,040 Speaker 1: up for. He has to focus on climate change and 672 00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:37,720 Speaker 1: the migrant crisis. And also, you guys are a little 673 00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 1: bit racist because he's Latino. Actually the Pope is Italian 674 00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:48,319 Speaker 1: by ethnic ethnic background. But it was a very strange 675 00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:54,960 Speaker 1: day for Chicago's cardinal. I lost, as to speak in 676 00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:58,160 Speaker 1: the parlance of you millennials, I lost my ability to 677 00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 1: even when when the cardinals says, the Pope's too busy 678 00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:08,200 Speaker 1: dealing with climate change and the migrant immigrant crisis to 679 00:45:08,400 --> 00:45:12,640 Speaker 1: deal with children, to deal with this, what could be 680 00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:16,160 Speaker 1: a Vatican If it is true, if this eleven page 681 00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:20,160 Speaker 1: letter is true, and so far evidence points to at 682 00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:22,439 Speaker 1: least a little bit of it being true. We don't 683 00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:26,359 Speaker 1: have everything just yet. But if this is true, then 684 00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:29,120 Speaker 1: this is a major scandal that goes all the way 685 00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:32,759 Speaker 1: to the top levels of the church. And this is 686 00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:36,239 Speaker 1: the agenda. In fact, I think most Catholics would agree 687 00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:38,319 Speaker 1: with me when we say this is the thing you 688 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:42,280 Speaker 1: should be focusing on. I no longer want any priest 689 00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:44,840 Speaker 1: in any diocese in the United States or anywhere in 690 00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:48,399 Speaker 1: the world being able to prey on children, being able 691 00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:51,960 Speaker 1: to pray on seminarians. If they exist in these dioceses, 692 00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:54,120 Speaker 1: they need to be punished with the full force of 693 00:45:54,160 --> 00:45:57,840 Speaker 1: the law, and I think that that's a fair and 694 00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:02,839 Speaker 1: full x dictation of a religion. And certainly this isn't 695 00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:05,520 Speaker 1: going to be nice. It's going to hurt a lot, 696 00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:08,399 Speaker 1: but once it's over, we're going to have a very 697 00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:11,879 Speaker 1: different church. So but these guys are saying, you know what, 698 00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:16,400 Speaker 1: maybe we'll get to ad after climate change. All I 699 00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:19,279 Speaker 1: I throw my hands in the air. I look at 700 00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:23,480 Speaker 1: the statements from the Attorney General in Pennsylvania and the 701 00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:26,040 Speaker 1: guy who said that one of the things holding back 702 00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:31,200 Speaker 1: any real progress is the statute of limitations on child abuse, 703 00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:36,480 Speaker 1: and many states have eliminated that, so that would probably 704 00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 1: help out and at least going more aggressively after these criminals, 705 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:45,560 Speaker 1: these animals, these beasts. But here's the question I would 706 00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:49,799 Speaker 1: ask you, Emily's an addie of the Daily Wire. Do 707 00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:54,400 Speaker 1: you think the answer not just solving the problem rooting 708 00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:57,279 Speaker 1: out the bad people. Do you think the answer is 709 00:46:57,320 --> 00:47:02,799 Speaker 1: allowing priests to marry. See, I don't think so. I 710 00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:07,400 Speaker 1: think this goes beyond that. If priests wanted to marry, 711 00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:10,760 Speaker 1: they would be having illicit families. We would be seeing 712 00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:15,840 Speaker 1: a very different um, a very different sort of concern 713 00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:19,080 Speaker 1: in the church. This is a case where some people 714 00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:22,000 Speaker 1: who wanted to do some bad things got in maybe 715 00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:24,600 Speaker 1: several decades ago, and paved the way for a lot 716 00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:27,680 Speaker 1: of terrible things to happen from the top down. We've 717 00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:30,719 Speaker 1: not had married priests for two thousand years, and we 718 00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:32,920 Speaker 1: only seem to have had these problems in the last 719 00:47:32,960 --> 00:47:36,399 Speaker 1: forty years. So this is a this is a time now. 720 00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:38,800 Speaker 1: I have had some friends of mine who are also 721 00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:41,520 Speaker 1: traditional Catholics like mine, suggests that perhaps we do need 722 00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:43,799 Speaker 1: some wives in the church because they might be better 723 00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:47,000 Speaker 1: off it controlling the men. But I, I don't know, 724 00:47:47,480 --> 00:47:50,080 Speaker 1: I don't think my well, my point was I I 725 00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:53,920 Speaker 1: always thought that the elimination of marriage for priests happened 726 00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:58,040 Speaker 1: somewhere in or twelfth century, and it was because the 727 00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:00,960 Speaker 1: Catholic Church was tired of giving some of the land 728 00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:04,640 Speaker 1: assets when there were divorces, and so that's when that 729 00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:08,279 Speaker 1: came about. That was one of the tales I was 730 00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:10,879 Speaker 1: told as a young man, because I I asked the 731 00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:15,240 Speaker 1: priests that taught me at Loyola, how come priests can't marry? 732 00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:18,919 Speaker 1: Don't you don't you see the beauty in women that 733 00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:22,840 Speaker 1: the rest of us see? And he said knows the 734 00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 1: vows celibacy was part of the higher calling. And yet 735 00:48:26,719 --> 00:48:29,080 Speaker 1: now we hear that many of them, not all of them, 736 00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:31,960 Speaker 1: but many of them didn't have that vow. I just 737 00:48:32,080 --> 00:48:35,239 Speaker 1: think if we were to root out the problem and 738 00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 1: get rid of those bad actors and maybe allow it, maybe, 739 00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:43,520 Speaker 1: like you said, there's some wives in the rectory, might 740 00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:47,960 Speaker 1: make two for a lot better situation. And a lot 741 00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:50,600 Speaker 1: of friends who are entering the seminary now, or they're 742 00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:53,120 Speaker 1: priests in the seminary, or they're very new priests, and 743 00:48:53,239 --> 00:48:55,640 Speaker 1: these are really good guys, and it's important to remember 744 00:48:55,680 --> 00:48:58,719 Speaker 1: that these guys have been hurt too. The worst that 745 00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:00,799 Speaker 1: you think of priests and worst that you think of 746 00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:02,640 Speaker 1: the Catholic Church, and the worst that you think of 747 00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:06,880 Speaker 1: these terrible people who have now soured everything. They really ruined. 748 00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:09,399 Speaker 1: This for men who do receive the calling, I mean, 749 00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:13,560 Speaker 1: this is a this is a very very prestigious calling. 750 00:49:13,600 --> 00:49:15,600 Speaker 1: If you're called to be a priest in the Catholic Church, 751 00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:19,120 Speaker 1: it means a lot. And that vow is you take 752 00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:21,720 Speaker 1: Christ as your wife, you take the body of Christ, 753 00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:25,160 Speaker 1: which is the entire church, and you're responsible. In fact um, 754 00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:28,880 Speaker 1: I'll never forget when one of my friends was um ordained. 755 00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:32,240 Speaker 1: The priest who is ordaining him said, you know, we're 756 00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:37,520 Speaker 1: all buried and and and our funerals face Heaven. Our 757 00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:40,919 Speaker 1: funerals face East. Priest funerals face the other direction, because 758 00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:44,080 Speaker 1: they have to face the people whose lives and souls 759 00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:49,359 Speaker 1: they were responsible for. So it's it's a very it's 760 00:49:49,400 --> 00:49:51,680 Speaker 1: a very high calling. And these guys have committed some 761 00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:55,080 Speaker 1: very terrible acts, and every last Catholic is a victim 762 00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:58,640 Speaker 1: of them. It's definitely of a different magnitude than the 763 00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:04,719 Speaker 1: sexual abuse victim. But be kind to priests because they 764 00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:06,759 Speaker 1: a lot of them, a lot of them did not 765 00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:09,960 Speaker 1: do anything wrong here. Well, you're you're really right to 766 00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:12,560 Speaker 1: bring up the point that this hurts not just the 767 00:50:12,680 --> 00:50:16,200 Speaker 1: victims of the sex abuse, but the members of the church, 768 00:50:16,280 --> 00:50:18,960 Speaker 1: but more importantly, the members of the clergy who are 769 00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:22,759 Speaker 1: good members. There are so many priests from my education 770 00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:25,560 Speaker 1: growing up as an altar boy, as a Catholic in 771 00:50:25,680 --> 00:50:29,359 Speaker 1: high school, as a person married in the Catholic Church. Uh, 772 00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:33,120 Speaker 1: so many great priests in my life, in my history 773 00:50:33,160 --> 00:50:37,719 Speaker 1: that it bothers me that a relatively small percentage has 774 00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:41,640 Speaker 1: done such a monumentally bad thing. But it could bring 775 00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:45,440 Speaker 1: down the church at least could bring down this papacy. 776 00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:48,279 Speaker 1: If you were a betting woman, would you bet that 777 00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:53,680 Speaker 1: Francis is going to have to step down. I don't know. 778 00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:56,520 Speaker 1: I think it'll come down to what we see and 779 00:50:56,560 --> 00:50:59,600 Speaker 1: find in the next several weeks. It would be a 780 00:50:59,680 --> 00:51:02,360 Speaker 1: big deal to have France to step down. That's really 781 00:51:02,360 --> 00:51:08,080 Speaker 1: not happened before except for Benedict, who willingly resigned the papacy, 782 00:51:08,120 --> 00:51:11,160 Speaker 1: So we would have three living popes at that point. 783 00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:14,600 Speaker 1: Um certainly a trial would have to be held for 784 00:51:14,680 --> 00:51:16,640 Speaker 1: him and he could be lay sized. But these are 785 00:51:16,640 --> 00:51:20,480 Speaker 1: all things that are so far down the road right now. 786 00:51:20,520 --> 00:51:22,960 Speaker 1: I think what everyone needs to focus on is getting 787 00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:27,359 Speaker 1: the church to agree to having these investigations. To understand 788 00:51:27,600 --> 00:51:31,040 Speaker 1: this matters to people of faith, and not just Catholics, 789 00:51:31,080 --> 00:51:34,240 Speaker 1: but it matters to people who have children in Catholic schools. 790 00:51:34,280 --> 00:51:36,600 Speaker 1: It matters to people whose friends are Catholic to go 791 00:51:36,640 --> 00:51:39,759 Speaker 1: to Catholic weddings. This is all very this is this 792 00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:43,640 Speaker 1: is very devastating for a large body of people. Yeah, 793 00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:48,560 Speaker 1: a billion people plus around the world. It's a topic 794 00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:52,799 Speaker 1: that will not be going away quickly. I wonder in 795 00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:55,440 Speaker 1: the back of my head I start playing what's first? 796 00:51:55,560 --> 00:51:58,440 Speaker 1: You know, if the Democrats who in the house? Is 797 00:51:58,800 --> 00:52:02,040 Speaker 1: there an article of impeach before the pope is being squeezed, 798 00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:05,680 Speaker 1: and and that situation, so that all these plates are 799 00:52:05,680 --> 00:52:08,719 Speaker 1: spinning in my head. Emily Sinnati, I don't know, I 800 00:52:08,760 --> 00:52:12,879 Speaker 1: don't quite know where to go. What give me one 801 00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:15,560 Speaker 1: story of yours on the Daily Wire? Then they need 802 00:52:15,600 --> 00:52:18,800 Speaker 1: to track to get me out of this horrific story. 803 00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:22,520 Speaker 1: UM let me see, Well, yesterday we did a story 804 00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:27,319 Speaker 1: about the introduction of lingerie for men. That's a totally different. Well, yeah, 805 00:52:27,400 --> 00:52:30,560 Speaker 1: I think it's actually totally different. We did that. Um. 806 00:52:31,040 --> 00:52:34,360 Speaker 1: We also have stories up there about John McCain's legacy, 807 00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:38,520 Speaker 1: and of course the renaming of the potential renaming of 808 00:52:38,560 --> 00:52:41,319 Speaker 1: the Russell Senate Office building for John McCain. That's something 809 00:52:41,360 --> 00:52:44,800 Speaker 1: that we covered today. So I think you'll find things 810 00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:47,360 Speaker 1: on the Daily Wire that will certainly take your mind 811 00:52:47,520 --> 00:52:51,560 Speaker 1: off of the Church but may not make you happy 812 00:52:51,640 --> 00:52:55,960 Speaker 1: for society. I can't say that at that. On top 813 00:52:56,000 --> 00:53:01,040 Speaker 1: of that, today's Pumpkin spice latte return day, it's I know, 814 00:53:01,360 --> 00:53:04,200 Speaker 1: I can't, I can't do it. I'm I'm not a 815 00:53:04,239 --> 00:53:07,440 Speaker 1: coffee drinker. I'm not a pumpkin spice person, but I 816 00:53:07,480 --> 00:53:10,960 Speaker 1: guess it means it's fall soon to be here.

And there she goes a really 821 00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:27,120 Speaker 1: smart young lady, somebody I I read every single day, 822 00:53:27,200 --> 00:53:29,520 Speaker 1: and I hope you do too. Michael pelca in for 823 00:53:29,680 --> 00:53:33,000 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton, what do you think you think impeachment will 824 00:53:33,040 --> 00:53:35,400 Speaker 1: happen before the pope leaves? Do you have a thought 825 00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:39,160 Speaker 1: on all of this? You know the number? Uh eight 826 00:53:39,200 --> 00:53:41,960 Speaker 1: four d Buck? You know it better than I do. 827 00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:46,080 Speaker 1: Eight four four nine to A to five Michael Pelica 828 00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:54,320 Speaker 1: and for Buck Sexton, come on back, Michael pelk and 829 00:53:54,440 --> 00:53:56,879 Speaker 1: for Buck Sexton on the Buck Sex and Show. Buck 830 00:53:56,880 --> 00:53:59,760 Speaker 1: will be back tomorrow. But we have a hot topic tonight. 831 00:53:59,840 --> 00:54:03,799 Speaker 1: Is especially for Catholics like me with the scandal in 832 00:54:03,840 --> 00:54:06,040 Speaker 1: the church. Should the Pope resign? A lot of you 833 00:54:06,080 --> 00:54:09,440 Speaker 1: are weighing in not only on this question, but on 834 00:54:09,560 --> 00:54:12,840 Speaker 1: your thoughts on this. Greg and Allentown, Pennsylvania, welcome to 835 00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:15,360 Speaker 1: the show. Where where are you on all this? Greg 836 00:54:16,520 --> 00:54:19,239 Speaker 1: Well not being a Catholic though. The question that I 837 00:54:19,840 --> 00:54:23,800 Speaker 1: first have about this is is the percentage of pedophile 838 00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:28,200 Speaker 1: priests any greater than the percentage of pedophiles in society. 839 00:54:28,560 --> 00:54:32,120 Speaker 1: It's a good question. I don't have hard answers on that. 840 00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:36,719 Speaker 1: It certainly seems to be um a higher concentration, but 841 00:54:36,840 --> 00:54:40,520 Speaker 1: I'm only going to speculate, so my information is flawed, 842 00:54:41,239 --> 00:54:44,480 Speaker 1: you know, more more publicity, perhaps maybe not a higher concentration. 843 00:54:45,080 --> 00:54:48,040 Speaker 1: And another thing too with with these priests and nuns, 844 00:54:48,600 --> 00:54:51,040 Speaker 1: I think are extraordinary people because they have to say 845 00:54:51,120 --> 00:54:53,839 Speaker 1: to do things that human beings are not designed to do, 846 00:54:53,960 --> 00:54:58,520 Speaker 1: and that is remain single. Yeah. I have uh friends 847 00:54:58,560 --> 00:55:03,720 Speaker 1: who were priests and became priests and then didn't stay 848 00:55:03,840 --> 00:55:05,920 Speaker 1: priests that I have stayed in touch with. And I 849 00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:08,759 Speaker 1: have I have friends who are nuns that taught me 850 00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:11,600 Speaker 1: in grammar school, and they are, as you have described, 851 00:55:11,760 --> 00:55:16,040 Speaker 1: remarkable people. So we need to remember there is a 852 00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:19,640 Speaker 1: great number of them out there who continued to do 853 00:55:19,719 --> 00:55:24,359 Speaker 1: God's work and are strong warriors of faith. So yeah, 854 00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:31,240 Speaker 1: great point, Greg, appreciate this time. Can't think to stop 855 00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:34,960 Speaker 1: praying for these people? Do that will make an ultimate difference. 856 00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:38,920 Speaker 1: I think in their lives. Wow, what a great thought. 857 00:55:39,080 --> 00:55:41,560 Speaker 1: Pray for the people who saw off and pray for us. 858 00:55:42,120 --> 00:55:47,200 Speaker 1: Thank you, Greg, I appreciate that, very simple and powerful thought. 859 00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:50,960 Speaker 1: Michael Pelkins for Buck Sexton, will continue talking, David p 860 00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:53,040 Speaker 1: A hang on, I want to get to your call, 861 00:55:53,120 --> 00:55:56,040 Speaker 1: but I have to take a short break. Should the 862 00:55:56,080 --> 00:56:00,000 Speaker 1: Pope resign? Where are you on the Catholic crisis? Michael 863 00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:14,479 Speaker 1: Pelican for Buck Sexton on the Buck Sexton Show. He's 864 00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:16,920 Speaker 1: back with you now because when it comes to the 865 00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:24,360 Speaker 1: fight for truth, the fuck never stops. Michael pelca in 866 00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:28,239 Speaker 1: for Buck Sexton tonight. Buck will be back tomorrow evening. Yes, 867 00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:31,480 Speaker 1: it's the Godfather once again. Happen to be here. This 868 00:56:31,520 --> 00:56:36,480 Speaker 1: audience always engages and inspires me, so I'm glad you're here. 869 00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:41,080 Speaker 1: We talked earlier tonight with emily's Anati from the Daily Wire, 870 00:56:41,160 --> 00:56:45,440 Speaker 1: a very talented writer, also a Catholic, somebody I I 871 00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:49,840 Speaker 1: follow religiously. Yeah, see what I did there, And we 872 00:56:49,960 --> 00:56:52,480 Speaker 1: talked about the situation with the Catholic Church and the 873 00:56:52,560 --> 00:56:57,480 Speaker 1: Vatican and the allegations now that the scandal involving the 874 00:56:57,560 --> 00:57:02,840 Speaker 1: abuse of young children, predominantly male children by male priests. 875 00:57:03,520 --> 00:57:07,880 Speaker 1: Has uh has been known inside the Vatican at the 876 00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:12,400 Speaker 1: highest levels for a long time, And I asked the question, 877 00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:17,640 Speaker 1: if it's true, if the Pope knew and didn't didn't 878 00:57:17,640 --> 00:57:20,440 Speaker 1: address it properly, is it time to remove him or 879 00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:23,800 Speaker 1: should he remove himself? And a lot of you were 880 00:57:23,840 --> 00:57:28,520 Speaker 1: calling eight four four buck eight four four to eight 881 00:57:28,560 --> 00:57:32,920 Speaker 1: to five to express your opinion. Dave, and Pennsylvania's on 882 00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:36,040 Speaker 1: the phone. Dave, it's your state that let the fire. 883 00:57:36,160 --> 00:57:39,800 Speaker 1: Where are you on this? Oh? Well, in regard to 884 00:57:39,840 --> 00:57:44,480 Speaker 1: this situation, I just want to say that I'm I'm 885 00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:46,720 Speaker 1: not a Catholic, but I consider myself to be a 886 00:57:46,760 --> 00:57:50,959 Speaker 1: born again Bible believing Christian. And I say, no matter 887 00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:55,600 Speaker 1: what the nomination you're from, Protestant, Catholic, Lutheran, Baptist, whatever, 888 00:57:56,160 --> 00:58:01,360 Speaker 1: anyone who's trusted in Jesus as his savior is can 889 00:58:01,440 --> 00:58:05,040 Speaker 1: consider themselves to be a Christian. So I think ultimately 890 00:58:05,080 --> 00:58:07,919 Speaker 1: the moral of the soul story is that the only 891 00:58:07,960 --> 00:58:12,200 Speaker 1: person we can really look to for an example here 892 00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:15,080 Speaker 1: is Jesus himself, because all the rest of us are 893 00:58:15,120 --> 00:58:18,880 Speaker 1: flawed in some way. And uh, maybe this had to 894 00:58:18,880 --> 00:58:23,000 Speaker 1: happen in the Catholic Church to some extent, because the 895 00:58:23,040 --> 00:58:27,439 Speaker 1: Catholic Church at times portrays its priests and every its 896 00:58:27,480 --> 00:58:30,880 Speaker 1: cardinals and the Pope to almost be in a higher 897 00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:34,480 Speaker 1: spiritual realm than the rest of us were immortals. And 898 00:58:34,560 --> 00:58:37,240 Speaker 1: maybe he just just just had to happen to remind 899 00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:41,479 Speaker 1: us all that we're all flawed individuals and the only 900 00:58:41,520 --> 00:58:46,200 Speaker 1: perfect one. That's a fair point. That's a fair point. 901 00:58:46,240 --> 00:58:49,000 Speaker 1: I don't know if Dave's line cut off, but the 902 00:58:49,080 --> 00:58:53,960 Speaker 1: only perfect okay, good, the only perfect one, as an example, 903 00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:57,640 Speaker 1: was Jesus. And I will tell you, um, well, have 904 00:58:57,800 --> 00:59:01,840 Speaker 1: you been to Rome and to the Vatican. Oh? No, okay, 905 00:59:01,960 --> 00:59:06,720 Speaker 1: it's it's quite stunning. And I've been inside the Vatican. 906 00:59:07,040 --> 00:59:11,400 Speaker 1: I attended midnight Mass on Christmas Eve in nine. It 907 00:59:11,520 --> 00:59:15,440 Speaker 1: was a powerful moment in my life. I attended something 908 00:59:15,480 --> 00:59:19,000 Speaker 1: known as a consistory, which is the installation of new 909 00:59:19,080 --> 00:59:25,600 Speaker 1: cardinals in and it as well is a powerful spiritual moment. 910 00:59:26,040 --> 00:59:31,840 Speaker 1: And there are reminders of of man's humanity everywhere. Uh. 911 00:59:32,120 --> 00:59:37,520 Speaker 1: You climb the Scala Sancta to a tiny prayer chapel 912 00:59:37,920 --> 00:59:41,320 Speaker 1: outside of the Vatican near City Hall in Rome, and 913 00:59:41,360 --> 00:59:45,280 Speaker 1: it's the Pope's private prayer channel at chapel. It's tiny, 914 00:59:45,400 --> 00:59:48,720 Speaker 1: you can't even imagine. But the Scala Sancta lead you 915 00:59:48,840 --> 00:59:53,520 Speaker 1: up to that prayer chapel and above the little altar inside, 916 00:59:54,320 --> 00:59:57,520 Speaker 1: and it's protected by bulletproof glass. You can't go in there. 917 00:59:57,920 --> 01:00:02,480 Speaker 1: It's where the Pope praise him self above the altar. 918 01:00:02,600 --> 01:00:06,280 Speaker 1: In in Latin is written this is the holiest place 919 01:00:06,320 --> 01:00:09,200 Speaker 1: on earth, and you feel it when you're there. So 920 01:00:09,600 --> 01:00:14,000 Speaker 1: there is uh an understanding of our minuscule nature in 921 01:00:14,120 --> 01:00:18,480 Speaker 1: terms of eternity and this feeling. And I think sometimes 922 01:00:18,560 --> 01:00:22,360 Speaker 1: we elevated some of the people in the hierarchy of 923 01:00:22,400 --> 01:00:26,240 Speaker 1: the church beyond the humanity that they really should be 924 01:00:26,280 --> 01:00:28,760 Speaker 1: in touch with. The Pope is the only one who's 925 01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:33,280 Speaker 1: infallible and Jesus the only one perfect if you're a Christian. 926 01:00:33,800 --> 01:00:38,680 Speaker 1: But I just wonder, if these humans are truly flawed, 927 01:00:39,240 --> 01:00:43,720 Speaker 1: and they they are exposed for being flawed, shouldn't we 928 01:00:43,800 --> 01:00:47,760 Speaker 1: expect them to remove themselves or be removed by the mechanism. 929 01:00:47,880 --> 01:00:52,880 Speaker 1: Isn't that a fair assumption? Yeah, I'd agree with that, Yeah, 930 01:00:52,920 --> 01:00:56,120 Speaker 1: I think. And now currently I posted a poll on Twitter. 931 01:00:56,200 --> 01:00:57,880 Speaker 1: If you guys want to vote, if you don't want 932 01:00:57,880 --> 01:00:59,640 Speaker 1: to chime in, on the phones. If you want to vote, 933 01:00:59,640 --> 01:01:03,720 Speaker 1: you compare your computer and go to at stunt brain 934 01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:06,160 Speaker 1: on Twitter. It's a vital question. At the top of 935 01:01:06,200 --> 01:01:09,960 Speaker 1: my Twitter account, I asked, considering the latest news in 936 01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:13,480 Speaker 1: the Catholic sex abuse crisis plaguing the Vatican, if the 937 01:01:13,600 --> 01:01:17,240 Speaker 1: Pope knew, should he resign or be removed? Sixty percent 938 01:01:17,320 --> 01:01:20,280 Speaker 1: of people in early, very early voting or saying yes, 939 01:01:21,120 --> 01:01:26,640 Speaker 1: zero percent say no, that's interesting, nine percent say depends 940 01:01:26,800 --> 01:01:32,120 Speaker 1: on what he knew. And of my Twitter followers don't care, 941 01:01:33,080 --> 01:01:35,560 Speaker 1: which is interesting. A fifth of people just don't care. 942 01:01:35,960 --> 01:01:39,840 Speaker 1: I will follow up on this throughout the evening online, 943 01:01:39,880 --> 01:01:44,400 Speaker 1: so you're welcome to jump in. Dave, your state is 944 01:01:44,480 --> 01:01:47,520 Speaker 1: the one leading the charge on this. Do you think 945 01:01:47,560 --> 01:01:50,160 Speaker 1: it goes wider across the country or do you think 946 01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:54,480 Speaker 1: it's isolated. I think it's wider across the country. Yeah, 947 01:01:54,800 --> 01:01:58,560 Speaker 1: I feel like you are uh and not to minimize it. 948 01:01:58,640 --> 01:02:01,240 Speaker 1: You are the canary in the coal mine unless you're 949 01:02:01,960 --> 01:02:05,080 Speaker 1: you're very very early. Even though we've heard out of 950 01:02:05,400 --> 01:02:09,400 Speaker 1: Boston for years, in New York and now Chicago as well, 951 01:02:09,880 --> 01:02:12,040 Speaker 1: but I think this is the biggest one. It really 952 01:02:12,080 --> 01:02:15,720 Speaker 1: is chilling, and Emily brought up a really good point. 953 01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:20,040 Speaker 1: There are many great people of faith who are going 954 01:02:20,080 --> 01:02:22,800 Speaker 1: to be hurt by this as well as the kids, 955 01:02:23,440 --> 01:02:26,200 Speaker 1: but we must remember them in our prayers. Thank you, Dave. 956 01:02:26,200 --> 01:02:30,600 Speaker 1: I appreciate your chiming in on that. Michael pelcam my name, 957 01:02:31,000 --> 01:02:33,400 Speaker 1: As I said, I'm here for Buck Sexton. You're welcome 958 01:02:33,480 --> 01:02:37,560 Speaker 1: to join the conversation anytime on any topic. We're covering 959 01:02:37,640 --> 01:02:41,880 Speaker 1: a broad range of things. Earlier tonight, I mentioned, uh, 960 01:02:41,920 --> 01:02:46,560 Speaker 1: some of the ridiculousness in local races around the country. 961 01:02:46,600 --> 01:02:49,840 Speaker 1: For example, in New York City, there really isn't a 962 01:02:49,880 --> 01:02:53,200 Speaker 1: snowball's chance, and how that a Republican will get elected 963 01:02:53,240 --> 01:02:56,800 Speaker 1: to the governorship. It would be nice, but the Democrats 964 01:02:56,800 --> 01:02:59,440 Speaker 1: are really organized. If you live in New York City 965 01:02:59,440 --> 01:03:05,440 Speaker 1: and the lower portion of the state, Democrats outnumber Republicans 966 01:03:05,880 --> 01:03:09,960 Speaker 1: eight to one, think about that, uh, and think about 967 01:03:09,960 --> 01:03:12,760 Speaker 1: what it took to get Rudy Giuliani elected. You had 968 01:03:12,800 --> 01:03:15,840 Speaker 1: to have a really incompetent mayor in New York City 969 01:03:16,200 --> 01:03:19,520 Speaker 1: in order to get a Republican like Rudy Giuliani elected. 970 01:03:19,560 --> 01:03:24,560 Speaker 1: And trust me, New York had a major league incompetent 971 01:03:24,680 --> 01:03:28,880 Speaker 1: mayor that Juliana came in and beat in David Dinkins, 972 01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:34,000 Speaker 1: and so now New York City after Dinkins and then 973 01:03:34,040 --> 01:03:38,080 Speaker 1: Giuliani and then Bloomberg, now they have Bill de Blasio, 974 01:03:38,200 --> 01:03:41,600 Speaker 1: the communist a k a. Warren Wilhelm his real name. 975 01:03:41,960 --> 01:03:44,560 Speaker 1: But in the governorship it's kind of the same deal. 976 01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:49,080 Speaker 1: It's doubtful you get a member of the GOP to 977 01:03:48,680 --> 01:03:52,040 Speaker 1: to earn the governorship. And in in New York State 978 01:03:52,120 --> 01:03:56,120 Speaker 1: you now have Cuomo the governor running against in a primary. 979 01:03:56,840 --> 01:03:59,960 Speaker 1: An actress from sex in the city sent the next 980 01:04:00,040 --> 01:04:03,120 Speaker 1: in and she has set out a condition for the 981 01:04:03,320 --> 01:04:06,920 Speaker 1: debate that she wants the room temperature to be seventy 982 01:04:06,920 --> 01:04:12,440 Speaker 1: six degrees because if it's any colder, it's sexist. And 983 01:04:12,520 --> 01:04:16,720 Speaker 1: I didn't realize that temperature had sexism tied to it, 984 01:04:17,200 --> 01:04:20,960 Speaker 1: but now we know. And I also mentioned in Texas, 985 01:04:21,720 --> 01:04:24,440 Speaker 1: Ted Cruise is up against this guy Beto O'Rourke, and 986 01:04:24,720 --> 01:04:28,640 Speaker 1: that's a nickname, Beto, and it's politically calculated to make 987 01:04:28,720 --> 01:04:33,440 Speaker 1: him sound like somebody who would appeal to members of 988 01:04:35,040 --> 01:04:39,800 Speaker 1: members of the Hispanic voting public. But a Rourke was 989 01:04:39,840 --> 01:04:43,080 Speaker 1: supposed to debate Ted Cruz. By the way, Ted Cruz 990 01:04:43,120 --> 01:04:47,080 Speaker 1: has a Debate award named for him at Princeton. So 991 01:04:47,600 --> 01:04:53,840 Speaker 1: O'Rourke would probably be mincemeat under Ted Cruz's debating skills. 992 01:04:54,240 --> 01:04:56,960 Speaker 1: A Roor canceled their Friday appearance, and we're trying to 993 01:04:57,000 --> 01:05:00,960 Speaker 1: figure out what it was there. We're trying to figure 994 01:05:00,960 --> 01:05:04,360 Speaker 1: out what it was that uh has gotten his attention. 995 01:05:04,440 --> 01:05:07,840 Speaker 1: And now we understand Beto O'Rourke is scheduled to appear 996 01:05:07,880 --> 01:05:12,840 Speaker 1: on Ellen on the Ellen television program, and maybe that's 997 01:05:12,920 --> 01:05:16,560 Speaker 1: why he canceled the debate with Ted Cruise. And my 998 01:05:16,640 --> 01:05:20,160 Speaker 1: only question for Ellen is, oh, really, so you put 999 01:05:20,280 --> 01:05:25,240 Speaker 1: him on, will you also be inviting Ted Cruz? Because 1000 01:05:25,360 --> 01:05:29,120 Speaker 1: that would be the fair thing to do, I would think. 1001 01:05:29,400 --> 01:05:33,520 Speaker 1: Let's see, I got a call on the buck Sexton hotline. 1002 01:05:33,560 --> 01:05:38,760 Speaker 1: Here eight Bucks Steve from Mississippi checking in. Steve, welcome 1003 01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:44,400 Speaker 1: to the buck Sexton program. How are you? I can't 1004 01:05:44,440 --> 01:05:48,520 Speaker 1: really hear Steve. You with me. You're on delay, Steve, 1005 01:05:48,640 --> 01:05:55,040 Speaker 1: so you're you're hearing like forty seconds earlier. But that happens. 1006 01:05:55,640 --> 01:05:57,400 Speaker 1: I don't mean to keep you on holding. I thought 1007 01:05:57,440 --> 01:06:00,480 Speaker 1: I got to stave pretty quickly. So maybe he'll join 1008 01:06:00,600 --> 01:06:03,479 Speaker 1: us here in a second. He has something to say, 1009 01:06:03,560 --> 01:06:08,120 Speaker 1: Stephen Mississippi. Uh, Steve, are you're with us? Check in again, Steve, 1010 01:06:08,440 --> 01:06:13,919 Speaker 1: come in, Steve Mississippi. Oh he's not responding. Well, I'm 1011 01:06:13,960 --> 01:06:17,120 Speaker 1: glad he's actually paying attention to his driving. That's a 1012 01:06:17,120 --> 01:06:19,919 Speaker 1: good thing. So I just want to point out those 1013 01:06:19,960 --> 01:06:25,040 Speaker 1: two inconsistencies in uh, those two major races Beato or 1014 01:06:25,120 --> 01:06:28,880 Speaker 1: Rourke canceling a debate so he can be on the 1015 01:06:28,920 --> 01:06:33,440 Speaker 1: Ellen Degenerous show. And uh, I imagine that's his audience. 1016 01:06:33,680 --> 01:06:37,000 Speaker 1: I imagine the Ellen audience is more of a left 1017 01:06:37,080 --> 01:06:40,640 Speaker 1: leaning audience. Okay, so we got Stephen Mississippi on the phone. Steve, 1018 01:06:40,640 --> 01:06:44,240 Speaker 1: welcome to the program, sir, Well, thank you, thank you. 1019 01:06:44,280 --> 01:06:47,360 Speaker 1: I'd like to wait in on the pope. Okay, please 1020 01:06:47,400 --> 01:06:50,120 Speaker 1: do are you? Do you happen to be Catholic? I 1021 01:06:50,360 --> 01:06:56,720 Speaker 1: do not. I'm not, okay, I do. I am a 1022 01:06:56,800 --> 01:07:07,160 Speaker 1: literalist and the okay literalist Okay, yes, hundred okay. And 1023 01:07:07,280 --> 01:07:17,640 Speaker 1: if if if Peter the Rock acquires his his authority 1024 01:07:17,680 --> 01:07:23,800 Speaker 1: from Jesus upon this Rock, I will be my church. Yes, sir, 1025 01:07:24,040 --> 01:07:28,720 Speaker 1: I'm with you so far. That's right. So if if 1026 01:07:29,880 --> 01:07:33,920 Speaker 1: the unction from God is to Peter, and it is 1027 01:07:33,960 --> 01:07:41,520 Speaker 1: to be passed down through men. How can you resign 1028 01:07:42,880 --> 01:07:46,959 Speaker 1: because it's supposed to be an unction? And if it's not, 1029 01:07:48,440 --> 01:07:54,360 Speaker 1: then the whole connection between Peter and Jesus, the Perfect, 1030 01:07:54,960 --> 01:08:02,680 Speaker 1: the Triune God, the the God in flesh. If that's broken, 1031 01:08:04,680 --> 01:08:08,760 Speaker 1: then what I thought he is there? Well, I go 1032 01:08:08,880 --> 01:08:13,960 Speaker 1: back to one of the previous callers, Dave from Pennsylvania, 1033 01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:17,599 Speaker 1: who talked about the only perfect one among us would 1034 01:08:17,600 --> 01:08:20,760 Speaker 1: have been no, no, no, no, no way. Man. I'm 1035 01:08:20,800 --> 01:08:26,120 Speaker 1: biab believing. I think he is God. It's not perfect. 1036 01:08:27,680 --> 01:08:31,240 Speaker 1: God is perfect, so he is God, So he would 1037 01:08:31,320 --> 01:08:37,519 Speaker 1: be perfect, wouldn't he Jesus, Yes, Jesus, Yeah, I'm with you. 1038 01:08:37,640 --> 01:08:40,800 Speaker 1: I'm with you on this one. He is perfect, Okay, 1039 01:08:40,840 --> 01:08:44,240 Speaker 1: I'm with you on this one. And if he, if 1040 01:08:44,280 --> 01:08:51,680 Speaker 1: he adnointed Teeter and the Catholic Church says that everyone 1041 01:08:51,800 --> 01:08:57,800 Speaker 1: that succeeds him stands in his stead? How can you 1042 01:08:57,920 --> 01:09:04,559 Speaker 1: resign on unction? And if I understand it? But but 1043 01:09:04,960 --> 01:09:11,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna Steve, I understand the case. Well, you're you're 1044 01:09:11,960 --> 01:09:15,759 Speaker 1: a literalist, and there are those that would interpret things 1045 01:09:15,920 --> 01:09:19,920 Speaker 1: different than you. And there are almost as many interpretations 1046 01:09:19,960 --> 01:09:24,400 Speaker 1: as there are uh groups around this country. Sex if 1047 01:09:24,439 --> 01:09:28,840 Speaker 1: you will, of different groups within the church. So there 1048 01:09:28,840 --> 01:09:32,760 Speaker 1: are literalists and there are people who are interpreting, and 1049 01:09:32,840 --> 01:09:37,360 Speaker 1: they will have different interpretations. And I will tell you, 1050 01:09:37,439 --> 01:09:41,280 Speaker 1: I think that the failings of man have invaded parts 1051 01:09:41,400 --> 01:09:45,000 Speaker 1: of my faith, and that's how I see this. And 1052 01:09:45,040 --> 01:09:47,400 Speaker 1: I would think that if the Pope looked the other 1053 01:09:47,520 --> 01:09:52,160 Speaker 1: way and did not recognize those failings of those humans 1054 01:09:52,760 --> 01:09:55,960 Speaker 1: and allowed that to happen to the youngest and most 1055 01:09:56,920 --> 01:10:01,040 Speaker 1: unguarded among us, the children, then I would believe that 1056 01:10:01,160 --> 01:10:03,960 Speaker 1: it is time for the church to remove, or the 1057 01:10:04,000 --> 01:10:07,480 Speaker 1: Pope himself to remove. And I don't know all the mechanisms. 1058 01:10:07,600 --> 01:10:10,120 Speaker 1: I have to do my homework on this one. I'll 1059 01:10:10,520 --> 01:10:14,919 Speaker 1: research it with my buddy Emily's Anati and uh, we'll 1060 01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:18,639 Speaker 1: continue on this. I know I've got more calls coming 1061 01:10:18,680 --> 01:10:21,760 Speaker 1: in Michael Pelka and for Buck Sexton on the Buck 1062 01:10:21,800 --> 01:10:31,360 Speaker 1: Sexton Show. Come on back, Michael Pelca in for Buck 1063 01:10:31,439 --> 01:10:33,759 Speaker 1: Sexton tonight. I guess I opened a can of worms. 1064 01:10:33,800 --> 01:10:35,840 Speaker 1: Are trying to get to a lot of topics tonight, 1065 01:10:35,880 --> 01:10:39,800 Speaker 1: but I opened up this Vatican topic and it is, uh, 1066 01:10:39,880 --> 01:10:43,280 Speaker 1: it's a hot topic because I'm a Catholic. We talked 1067 01:10:43,320 --> 01:10:47,240 Speaker 1: to another very Catholic young lady. And Emily's a Nati 1068 01:10:47,360 --> 01:10:50,640 Speaker 1: who writes a lot about faith but other things in 1069 01:10:50,760 --> 01:10:55,400 Speaker 1: the Daily Wire. And I post the question is it time? 1070 01:10:55,720 --> 01:11:00,240 Speaker 1: Is it Is it appropriate if this pope new and 1071 01:11:00,320 --> 01:11:03,920 Speaker 1: look the other way in regards to the child sex 1072 01:11:03,960 --> 01:11:08,080 Speaker 1: abuse cases in the Vatican and in parishes around the country, 1073 01:11:08,160 --> 01:11:11,479 Speaker 1: is it appropriate he should resign or be removed? And 1074 01:11:11,560 --> 01:11:14,920 Speaker 1: currently six of you say yes, two percent say no, 1075 01:11:16,200 --> 01:11:19,080 Speaker 1: ten percent say depends on how much you knew and 1076 01:11:19,840 --> 01:11:23,880 Speaker 1: don't care. But James is calling from Mississippi the way 1077 01:11:23,920 --> 01:11:28,439 Speaker 1: and on this James, welcome to the buck Sexton program. Well, 1078 01:11:28,479 --> 01:11:32,479 Speaker 1: thank you, Mike. Uh just as a former Catholic myself, 1079 01:11:32,560 --> 01:11:36,600 Speaker 1: I was at one time. Now I'm not. But it 1080 01:11:37,280 --> 01:11:40,040 Speaker 1: seems to be that people think that the pope is 1081 01:11:40,080 --> 01:11:45,800 Speaker 1: infallible when all people are infallible. I mean they're they're 1082 01:11:45,840 --> 01:11:49,599 Speaker 1: they're all fallible. Excuse me. They all have failures and 1083 01:11:50,560 --> 01:11:52,800 Speaker 1: if you take a look at one one pope said 1084 01:11:52,840 --> 01:11:55,519 Speaker 1: to another, there's still some differences. So how can one 1085 01:11:55,560 --> 01:11:59,080 Speaker 1: be infallible if he's contradicting what another says. That's a 1086 01:11:59,080 --> 01:12:03,720 Speaker 1: good point. Our humanity is what makes us vulnerable in 1087 01:12:03,840 --> 01:12:07,439 Speaker 1: all situations, and UH, it's something we need to be 1088 01:12:07,520 --> 01:12:12,080 Speaker 1: mindful of. But thank you. In regards to your question 1089 01:12:12,160 --> 01:12:17,040 Speaker 1: whether the pope should UH resign or not? Um, I 1090 01:12:17,080 --> 01:12:20,480 Speaker 1: think the more important question would be if he knew 1091 01:12:20,520 --> 01:12:25,200 Speaker 1: about this, could he be charges as an accessory after 1092 01:12:25,280 --> 01:12:28,720 Speaker 1: the fact. It depends on the jurisdiction. I guess you know. 1093 01:12:29,160 --> 01:12:32,400 Speaker 1: I'll reach out to our lawyer friend, Wendy Patrick and 1094 01:12:32,439 --> 01:12:34,400 Speaker 1: see if she can get us an answer. Maybe she'll 1095 01:12:34,400 --> 01:12:36,840 Speaker 1: send me a text on it. Thank you, James, I 1096 01:12:36,840 --> 01:12:40,000 Speaker 1: appreciate you. I love my friends in Mississippi. Let's check 1097 01:12:40,040 --> 01:12:42,960 Speaker 1: in quickly with Ike. I don't know where you're calling from, Mike, 1098 01:12:43,040 --> 01:12:48,320 Speaker 1: but welcome to the Buck Sexton Show, Florida. Okay, hey, Ike, 1099 01:12:50,800 --> 01:12:55,280 Speaker 1: are you talking to me? Did we lose him? Can 1100 01:12:55,360 --> 01:12:58,719 Speaker 1: you hear me barely? You got about just under a minute. 1101 01:12:58,760 --> 01:13:02,360 Speaker 1: What's your question? Real quickly? My name is Mike and 1102 01:13:02,439 --> 01:13:10,360 Speaker 1: not Mike hesitant. Um anyway, um uh I was you 1103 01:13:10,439 --> 01:13:14,040 Speaker 1: were you made mention of UH priests should get married. 1104 01:13:14,040 --> 01:13:16,759 Speaker 1: I believe and I think that's long overdue that priests 1105 01:13:16,760 --> 01:13:19,200 Speaker 1: are would be getting married and they had this pin 1106 01:13:19,320 --> 01:13:24,400 Speaker 1: up energy and it would it would change the status 1107 01:13:24,439 --> 01:13:28,639 Speaker 1: of who's going for priesthood and everything like that. And Uh, 1108 01:13:29,000 --> 01:13:32,320 Speaker 1: I had some other interesting thoughts, uh that we're hanging 1109 01:13:32,360 --> 01:13:34,800 Speaker 1: on a second, Mike. I'll try and get back to you. 1110 01:13:34,920 --> 01:13:38,320 Speaker 1: Michael Pelca, wrapping up another hour on the Buck Sexton Show. 1111 01:13:38,439 --> 01:13:42,160 Speaker 1: Come on back.

We will get to that and 1125 01:14:41,000 --> 01:14:45,080 Speaker 1: what the President said that some people on the left 1126 01:14:45,120 --> 01:14:48,479 Speaker 1: are freaking out about. When it comes to social media. 1127 01:14:48,520 --> 01:14:51,280 Speaker 1: He talked about Google and one of the things he said, 1128 01:14:51,360 --> 01:14:54,519 Speaker 1: as a bunch of my friends.

I was just, uh, you know, 1140 01:15:38,520 --> 01:15:40,760 Speaker 1: I think you may have mentioned that it would be 1141 01:15:40,800 --> 01:15:43,920 Speaker 1: a good idea if priests could get married, and I've 1142 01:15:43,960 --> 01:15:47,080 Speaker 1: been thinking that quite some time. My wife was raised 1143 01:15:47,120 --> 01:15:52,680 Speaker 1: as a Catholic um and um, I don't know it's 1144 01:15:52,720 --> 01:15:57,400 Speaker 1: too much about Catholicism myself, but anyway, it just seemed 1145 01:15:57,400 --> 01:15:58,920 Speaker 1: like I could be a good idea if they could 1146 01:15:58,920 --> 01:16:03,200 Speaker 1: get married. And I think in my draw a different 1147 01:16:03,640 --> 01:16:07,639 Speaker 1: different people into the priesthood for one thing, but also 1148 01:16:07,840 --> 01:16:11,679 Speaker 1: there's if there if there's been up energy, it could 1149 01:16:11,680 --> 01:16:16,360 Speaker 1: create negative energy. If if that makes any sense, I 1150 01:16:16,479 --> 01:16:19,320 Speaker 1: understand where you're going there, Mike. I got it. So 1151 01:16:19,560 --> 01:16:23,360 Speaker 1: I think it's something I wish my faith would consider that. 1152 01:16:23,439 --> 01:16:27,200 Speaker 1: But that's an argument for bigger brains than mine. But 1153 01:16:27,640 --> 01:16:29,880 Speaker 1: I know they makes it off of what Paul had 1154 01:16:29,920 --> 01:16:33,040 Speaker 1: said something. But it should have been just a wish 1155 01:16:33,080 --> 01:16:36,520 Speaker 1: of his instead of making an a mandate like that. 1156 01:16:36,800 --> 01:16:41,120 Speaker 1: You know, that's what That's what kind of bothers me. 1157 01:16:41,280 --> 01:16:44,160 Speaker 1: You know, if somebody, if a priest chooses to be 1158 01:16:44,360 --> 01:16:48,880 Speaker 1: completely selivant and everything else, you know, then that's I 1159 01:16:48,920 --> 01:16:52,840 Speaker 1: think that's a great thing. But I was if I 1160 01:16:52,840 --> 01:16:55,479 Speaker 1: could share an example when I lived in Atlanta, but 1161 01:16:55,720 --> 01:16:58,960 Speaker 1: I think it was the early nineties when a great 1162 01:16:59,040 --> 01:17:02,559 Speaker 1: priest was there. I might have been named Martino, maybe 1163 01:17:02,560 --> 01:17:05,720 Speaker 1: Father Martino or something like that, and he got into 1164 01:17:05,760 --> 01:17:09,679 Speaker 1: an affair with a young lady and he was bringing 1165 01:17:09,800 --> 01:17:12,679 Speaker 1: all the preachers before this happened, he was bringing all 1166 01:17:12,680 --> 01:17:17,439 Speaker 1: the preachers are different um you know um Protestantry, which 1167 01:17:17,479 --> 01:17:19,479 Speaker 1: would say we're all meet on a certain morning and 1168 01:17:19,520 --> 01:17:22,720 Speaker 1: pray together. I was bringing the whole church, all the 1169 01:17:22,800 --> 01:17:25,599 Speaker 1: church segments together. It was a great thing, and then 1170 01:17:25,600 --> 01:17:29,080 Speaker 1: he got busted for having a girlfriend and everything like that, 1171 01:17:29,160 --> 01:17:31,160 Speaker 1: and I don't know whatever happened, and he got de 1172 01:17:31,360 --> 01:17:36,400 Speaker 1: frocked right away, and uh, anyway, yeah, he got he 1173 01:17:36,479 --> 01:17:40,639 Speaker 1: got thrown out for being human, which you know, my 1174 01:17:40,640 --> 01:17:42,840 Speaker 1: my faith may not like me saying that, but it's 1175 01:17:42,920 --> 01:17:45,320 Speaker 1: one of those things. Thanks Mike, I got a rock 1176 01:17:45,320 --> 01:17:47,800 Speaker 1: and roll. Let's go to Texas and Fort Worth, one 1177 01:17:47,800 --> 01:17:50,920 Speaker 1: of my favorite towns in the whole wide world. Larry 1178 01:17:50,960 --> 01:17:54,559 Speaker 1: and Fort Worth. Welcome to the buck Sexton Show. Well, 1179 01:17:54,600 --> 01:17:59,160 Speaker 1: thank you, Michael. Yeah, the whole uh the buckle with 1180 01:17:59,320 --> 01:18:02,920 Speaker 1: the is going on now hurt so many people and 1181 01:18:03,040 --> 01:18:08,439 Speaker 1: being Catholic myself, Um, it's just said. But then you 1182 01:18:08,479 --> 01:18:11,960 Speaker 1: think about back in two thousand two when I guess 1183 01:18:12,000 --> 01:18:17,479 Speaker 1: the us um presuduced issue came about, what did they 1184 01:18:17,520 --> 01:18:19,360 Speaker 1: do well, they had that I think it was called 1185 01:18:19,400 --> 01:18:22,400 Speaker 1: the John James Commission that they involl. The bishops met 1186 01:18:22,600 --> 01:18:25,800 Speaker 1: in Dallas and decided what they were going to deal 1187 01:18:25,880 --> 01:18:31,920 Speaker 1: with the scandal, and basically they just refocused it, putting 1188 01:18:31,960 --> 01:18:36,360 Speaker 1: the blame on the parishoners. We're not Everyone who's involved 1189 01:18:36,400 --> 01:18:39,240 Speaker 1: in any kind of ministry at the church has to 1190 01:18:39,280 --> 01:18:43,080 Speaker 1: go through this program calling called the Keeping Children and 1191 01:18:43,280 --> 01:18:48,040 Speaker 1: Vulnerable Adults STAS. But it was like the priest say 1192 01:18:48,120 --> 01:18:51,800 Speaker 1: that they go through it too. But well, I think 1193 01:18:51,840 --> 01:18:55,080 Speaker 1: we need drastic action. Obviously, what we did in two 1194 01:18:55,080 --> 01:18:59,080 Speaker 1: thousand and two and anything between then and now it's 1195 01:18:59,160 --> 01:19:02,479 Speaker 1: not appropriate it and we need drastic action. And those 1196 01:19:02,520 --> 01:19:05,760 Speaker 1: of us who want to save the church for the 1197 01:19:05,800 --> 01:19:09,960 Speaker 1: good Catholic priests and nuns are are crying out for 1198 01:19:10,000 --> 01:19:13,559 Speaker 1: the leadership to do something. So I hope that works out. 1199 01:19:14,120 --> 01:19:16,479 Speaker 1: Take careful worth for me, Larry, It's one of my 1200 01:19:16,560 --> 01:19:18,720 Speaker 1: favorite talents. I got to check in real quickly with 1201 01:19:18,800 --> 01:19:25,480 Speaker 1: josh in Ohio. Joshua, welcome to the Buck Sexton program. Hi, hey, 1202 01:19:25,520 --> 01:19:28,559 Speaker 1: thanks for taking my call. Of course, sir, where where 1203 01:19:28,560 --> 01:19:33,600 Speaker 1: are you on this topic? Are you changing topics on me? No? Uh. 1204 01:19:33,680 --> 01:19:36,920 Speaker 1: You know a lot of people are suggesting that if 1205 01:19:36,960 --> 01:19:40,200 Speaker 1: they would allow the priest to marry that things would change, 1206 01:19:40,240 --> 01:19:43,240 Speaker 1: But the real question is I think it points to 1207 01:19:43,600 --> 01:19:47,599 Speaker 1: the need for reformation in the Catholic Church. You see, 1208 01:19:47,600 --> 01:19:52,080 Speaker 1: these priests they accumulate money through the years, and they 1209 01:19:52,080 --> 01:19:54,360 Speaker 1: have properties and things like this, and when they die, 1210 01:19:55,200 --> 01:19:57,320 Speaker 1: they don't have kids to leave them to. And uh, 1211 01:19:57,439 --> 01:20:01,000 Speaker 1: for centuries. They've left all their earthly materials to the 1212 01:20:01,000 --> 01:20:03,439 Speaker 1: Catholic Church. And it seems to me that if you 1213 01:20:03,479 --> 01:20:07,480 Speaker 1: follow the money, I think there's an answer there. Uh 1214 01:20:07,520 --> 01:20:10,080 Speaker 1: and uh, I mean the Bible clearly says Peter was 1215 01:20:10,080 --> 01:20:12,040 Speaker 1: the first pope, but he had Jesus, he was mother 1216 01:20:12,080 --> 01:20:15,040 Speaker 1: in law, so he was a married man. Uh. A 1217 01:20:15,200 --> 01:20:16,880 Speaker 1: matter of fact, the Bible says they'll come a time 1218 01:20:16,880 --> 01:20:19,880 Speaker 1: when people will come forbidding to marry. So it's not 1219 01:20:19,920 --> 01:20:21,920 Speaker 1: a doctrinal issue. It seems to me that it's a 1220 01:20:22,040 --> 01:20:25,120 Speaker 1: it's a matter of money. And Uh. Sometimes when you 1221 01:20:25,160 --> 01:20:27,400 Speaker 1: follow the buck, I think you get the answer there. Yeah, 1222 01:20:27,439 --> 01:20:30,200 Speaker 1: money does have an effect on all of us, doesn't it, 1223 01:20:30,280 --> 01:20:34,599 Speaker 1: And some it affects more than others. A really good point, Josh, 1224 01:20:34,640 --> 01:20:37,120 Speaker 1: thank you for bringing that up. If you want to vote, 1225 01:20:37,439 --> 01:20:39,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep this pull up for twenty three more 1226 01:20:39,960 --> 01:20:43,200 Speaker 1: hours on Twitter at stunt brain all one word s 1227 01:20:43,240 --> 01:20:45,400 Speaker 1: t U N T B R A I N and 1228 01:20:45,880 --> 01:20:50,400 Speaker 1: will obviously post the results there right now. Overwhelming majority 1229 01:20:50,479 --> 01:20:55,840 Speaker 1: says the pope should be removed or resign, especially if 1230 01:20:55,880 --> 01:20:59,360 Speaker 1: he knew, and there's still people saying depends on how 1231 01:20:59,439 --> 01:21:02,760 Speaker 1: much he new if one child was abused in the 1232 01:21:02,800 --> 01:21:05,880 Speaker 1: pope new and covered it up. I'm sorry that that 1233 01:21:06,000 --> 01:21:10,880 Speaker 1: violates my my my rules. I got to get into 1234 01:21:11,000 --> 01:21:16,120 Speaker 1: something the President has been getting some heat about. The 1235 01:21:16,160 --> 01:21:19,679 Speaker 1: President was going after Google today and then the last 1236 01:21:20,439 --> 01:21:24,240 Speaker 1: few days we have heard President Trump make comments about 1237 01:21:24,320 --> 01:21:31,200 Speaker 1: social media banning or quieting or stifling conservative speech. And 1238 01:21:31,360 --> 01:21:34,719 Speaker 1: I am a gigantic fan of free speech, especially speech 1239 01:21:34,760 --> 01:21:38,280 Speaker 1: I don't agree with. I will defend your right to 1240 01:21:38,360 --> 01:21:41,559 Speaker 1: be as offensive as you want, of course, as long 1241 01:21:41,640 --> 01:21:45,840 Speaker 1: as you realize there are consequences if you are an 1242 01:21:45,840 --> 01:21:50,280 Speaker 1: offensive prig p R. I g uh, if you are 1243 01:21:50,320 --> 01:21:53,839 Speaker 1: an offensive prig, and I defend your right to free speech, 1244 01:21:53,920 --> 01:21:57,200 Speaker 1: but that means you're not going to get jobs. If 1245 01:21:57,640 --> 01:22:01,160 Speaker 1: you wanted to be a kindergarten teacher, that's the penalty 1246 01:22:01,240 --> 01:22:05,440 Speaker 1: you pay. But in social media their private companies. Obviously 1247 01:22:05,520 --> 01:22:09,160 Speaker 1: the First Amendment doesn't apply to them. And I think 1248 01:22:09,240 --> 01:22:12,920 Speaker 1: that we as free citizens vote with a wallets or 1249 01:22:12,960 --> 01:22:17,360 Speaker 1: our presence online. Look at how Facebook has been affected 1250 01:22:17,800 --> 01:22:21,120 Speaker 1: when so many of us said, wait a minute, Facebook, 1251 01:22:21,360 --> 01:22:25,240 Speaker 1: you're shutting down our free speech. You're sitting on conservatives, 1252 01:22:25,520 --> 01:22:29,439 Speaker 1: you're limiting who's gonna see my Facebook posts and then Twitter, 1253 01:22:29,680 --> 01:22:34,000 Speaker 1: I was shadow band. I don't know if you understand it, 1254 01:22:34,560 --> 01:22:37,000 Speaker 1: but there are some of us who will post things 1255 01:22:37,080 --> 01:22:41,200 Speaker 1: on Twitter and no one will see them, and we 1256 01:22:41,280 --> 01:22:45,040 Speaker 1: won't be told that they're being squelched. We won't be 1257 01:22:45,080 --> 01:22:48,000 Speaker 1: told that Twitter is kind of putting that tweet over 1258 01:22:48,040 --> 01:22:51,200 Speaker 1: in the corner where nobody can see it. Well, it 1259 01:22:51,320 --> 01:22:54,920 Speaker 1: happens when you use certain words. If I go through 1260 01:22:54,960 --> 01:22:56,840 Speaker 1: some of my tweets from the day and I tend 1261 01:22:56,840 --> 01:22:59,679 Speaker 1: to report on things that interest me or retweet things 1262 01:22:59,680 --> 01:23:03,840 Speaker 1: that trust me, I can see let some of them 1263 01:23:03,880 --> 01:23:07,479 Speaker 1: get more attention than others, and I know Twitter is 1264 01:23:07,479 --> 01:23:11,120 Speaker 1: gonna say no, it's because they're just not interesting. But 1265 01:23:11,320 --> 01:23:16,080 Speaker 1: I have taken the same tweet about Second Amendment rights 1266 01:23:16,120 --> 01:23:20,679 Speaker 1: and remove the word gun and reposted the exact same 1267 01:23:20,720 --> 01:23:26,320 Speaker 1: tweet without the word gun, and it's seen by instantly 1268 01:23:26,520 --> 01:23:31,120 Speaker 1: almost a thousand people. So Twitter is shadow banning people. 1269 01:23:32,080 --> 01:23:37,680 Speaker 1: Facebook is selectively choosing who can have access to its platform. 1270 01:23:37,840 --> 01:23:40,799 Speaker 1: YouTube has done so with a guy I don't respect 1271 01:23:40,840 --> 01:23:47,160 Speaker 1: at all. YouTube has sat on Alex Jones. So I'm 1272 01:23:47,200 --> 01:23:49,400 Speaker 1: I'm not a fan of Alex Jones, but I think 1273 01:23:49,439 --> 01:23:52,519 Speaker 1: the public should vote on whether or not his content 1274 01:23:53,240 --> 01:23:57,479 Speaker 1: is worthwhile seeing. So when the President gets up this 1275 01:23:57,560 --> 01:24:00,439 Speaker 1: morning and after saying some things about social media and 1276 01:24:00,479 --> 01:24:03,720 Speaker 1: Twitter and Facebook and Instagram, and now he makes a 1277 01:24:03,760 --> 01:24:09,000 Speaker 1: comment about Google, because we know Google is left leaning, 1278 01:24:09,360 --> 01:24:13,479 Speaker 1: and Google has just turned down an invitation to appear 1279 01:24:13,560 --> 01:24:18,360 Speaker 1: before a Senate Select Intelligence Committee. And there they said, no, thanks, 1280 01:24:18,600 --> 01:24:21,439 Speaker 1: we don't we don't need to be there. Well, I 1281 01:24:21,520 --> 01:24:23,479 Speaker 1: do think you need to be there. If you are 1282 01:24:23,640 --> 01:24:27,240 Speaker 1: so big that you control a gigantic portion of the Internet, 1283 01:24:27,920 --> 01:24:30,680 Speaker 1: then the government has the right to find out what 1284 01:24:30,720 --> 01:24:34,479 Speaker 1: the heck you're up to if you are indoctrinating or 1285 01:24:34,520 --> 01:24:40,320 Speaker 1: controlling so much information as to obscuring access to certain 1286 01:24:40,360 --> 01:24:44,439 Speaker 1: things that might let people have the whole story. I 1287 01:24:44,520 --> 01:24:49,960 Speaker 1: think it's important. So I was reading this afternoon on 1288 01:24:50,360 --> 01:24:53,400 Speaker 1: MRC on NewsBusters dot org. I don't know if you 1289 01:24:53,439 --> 01:24:58,120 Speaker 1: ever go over there and not everything a NewsBusters hits me, 1290 01:24:58,200 --> 01:25:02,320 Speaker 1: but this one did. It's a story from Ashley Ray 1291 01:25:02,360 --> 01:25:07,680 Speaker 1: Goldenberg and Dan Gainer of NewsBusters. It's a titled Censored 1292 01:25:07,720 --> 01:25:12,200 Speaker 1: how online media companies are suppressing conservative speech. And we 1293 01:25:12,320 --> 01:25:18,880 Speaker 1: know about Twitter and Facebook and and YouTube shutting down conservatives, 1294 01:25:19,960 --> 01:25:22,240 Speaker 1: and look, I was one of the people who went 1295 01:25:22,439 --> 01:25:25,920 Speaker 1: with Glenn back to Facebook a couple of years ago 1296 01:25:26,040 --> 01:25:31,360 Speaker 1: when Mark Zuckerberg and Cheryl Sandberg brought in conservatives to 1297 01:25:31,439 --> 01:25:35,200 Speaker 1: say we need you, we respect you, and then they 1298 01:25:35,360 --> 01:25:38,360 Speaker 1: did whatever the hell they wanted. So I was there. 1299 01:25:38,400 --> 01:25:41,680 Speaker 1: I witnessed all that, and we met with some of 1300 01:25:41,720 --> 01:25:44,639 Speaker 1: the people from Twitter. I think Jack Dorsey was at 1301 01:25:44,680 --> 01:25:48,479 Speaker 1: the lunch we're at, and they freely admitted of the 1302 01:25:48,520 --> 01:25:54,559 Speaker 1: people who work in these organizations are liberals. You can't 1303 01:25:54,560 --> 01:25:57,760 Speaker 1: swing a cat and hit a conservative. I'm not advocating 1304 01:25:57,800 --> 01:26:03,240 Speaker 1: for cat swinging, but in this story, there are suggestions 1305 01:26:03,479 --> 01:26:08,720 Speaker 1: from the folks in MRC on what tech companies can do. 1306 01:26:09,760 --> 01:26:15,280 Speaker 1: People are Google and Facebook and Twitter, and I think 1307 01:26:15,360 --> 01:26:20,960 Speaker 1: the suggestions are actually pretty good. Starting with people our policy, 1308 01:26:21,280 --> 01:26:26,280 Speaker 1: they they write Goldenberg and Gainer right, Tech companies like 1309 01:26:26,320 --> 01:26:30,080 Speaker 1: Google and Facebook are making a nominal effort to hire conservatives, 1310 01:26:30,120 --> 01:26:34,160 Speaker 1: but it doesn't address the core problem within the organizations. 1311 01:26:34,200 --> 01:26:39,200 Speaker 1: The company need to eliminate policies and biases that discriminate 1312 01:26:39,320 --> 01:26:44,120 Speaker 1: against conservatives so we know they exist. Let's just be open. 1313 01:26:45,040 --> 01:26:49,559 Speaker 1: And the next suggestion is transparency. We need transparency and 1314 01:26:49,640 --> 01:26:56,880 Speaker 1: tech companies the organizations either have stuff restricted or deleted. 1315 01:26:57,000 --> 01:27:00,559 Speaker 1: Need to know if you're gonna do it, tell and 1316 01:27:00,600 --> 01:27:06,799 Speaker 1: tell us why. And at this pace, technology is always 1317 01:27:06,800 --> 01:27:11,799 Speaker 1: ahead of legislation. Technology always leads, and then the government 1318 01:27:11,880 --> 01:27:16,320 Speaker 1: catches up. I'm I'm the last guy who wants more 1319 01:27:16,400 --> 01:27:20,800 Speaker 1: government regulation. But I think we need rules from these companies. 1320 01:27:20,880 --> 01:27:24,080 Speaker 1: If they're going to purport to be supporters of free speech, 1321 01:27:24,479 --> 01:27:29,519 Speaker 1: we need to know what are your rules. And they 1322 01:27:29,560 --> 01:27:33,880 Speaker 1: also say they should avoid partnering with bad actors. Yeah, 1323 01:27:34,000 --> 01:27:38,320 Speaker 1: and bad actors include people who are agenda driven, like 1324 01:27:38,400 --> 01:27:43,439 Speaker 1: the Southern Poverty Law Center. The Southern Poverty Law Center 1325 01:27:44,200 --> 01:27:48,880 Speaker 1: is not a a fair group. As a matter of fact, 1326 01:27:48,880 --> 01:27:53,360 Speaker 1: they got in trouble for slapping terrorists labels and calling 1327 01:27:53,479 --> 01:27:56,040 Speaker 1: people bad actors. Had to pay I think it was 1328 01:27:56,120 --> 01:28:01,559 Speaker 1: six million dollars in fines. So if social media, all 1329 01:28:01,600 --> 01:28:07,360 Speaker 1: these platforms, Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, Google, would avoid partnering with 1330 01:28:07,720 --> 01:28:10,880 Speaker 1: agenda driven people, people who are funded by George Somers, 1331 01:28:10,920 --> 01:28:15,439 Speaker 1: I think we'd have a much better situation. And uh, 1332 01:28:15,680 --> 01:28:20,320 Speaker 1: neutral fact checkers yeah, I don't know if neutral fact 1333 01:28:20,439 --> 01:28:24,559 Speaker 1: checkers exist because as long as algorithms are involved, neutral 1334 01:28:24,600 --> 01:28:27,760 Speaker 1: fact checkers aren't real. If you want to see a 1335 01:28:27,800 --> 01:28:30,880 Speaker 1: copy of this story. I think it's worth reading, and 1336 01:28:30,960 --> 01:28:33,120 Speaker 1: I think the President's going to get a lot of 1337 01:28:33,160 --> 01:28:35,640 Speaker 1: heat for calling out Google. And I I have a 1338 01:28:35,640 --> 01:28:37,880 Speaker 1: friend who's pretty big in the media who said, Hey, 1339 01:28:40,320 --> 01:28:44,320 Speaker 1: just because you don't like what Google's doing doesn't mean 1340 01:28:44,360 --> 01:28:46,559 Speaker 1: you can go after them. They are one of the 1341 01:28:46,640 --> 01:28:51,479 Speaker 1: biggest companies in the world. Well, your size doesn't give 1342 01:28:51,520 --> 01:28:55,960 Speaker 1: you the right to trample on people. If that were 1343 01:28:56,000 --> 01:29:00,880 Speaker 1: the case, we'd all be in big trouble. So yeah, 1344 01:29:00,960 --> 01:29:05,639 Speaker 1: I'm nervous about what Google and Facebook and Twitter and 1345 01:29:05,720 --> 01:29:10,599 Speaker 1: YouTube are doing to conservative speech. And as someone who 1346 01:29:10,640 --> 01:29:14,280 Speaker 1: reported on the i r S shutting down conservatives, the 1347 01:29:14,320 --> 01:29:17,960 Speaker 1: first national breaking story on the i r S going 1348 01:29:18,040 --> 01:29:23,040 Speaker 1: after conservative groups, this really makes my skin crawl. You 1349 01:29:23,080 --> 01:29:25,760 Speaker 1: can see the article in NewsBusters. Like I said, I 1350 01:29:25,800 --> 01:29:28,000 Speaker 1: will tweet out a link to it. Michael pelka in 1351 01:29:28,080 --> 01:29:31,080 Speaker 1: for Buck Sexton when we get back, the d n 1352 01:29:31,120 --> 01:29:34,960 Speaker 1: C has a gender problem. Oh it's a big one 1353 01:29:35,040 --> 01:29:37,160 Speaker 1: and we're going to have some fun with it. Plus 1354 01:29:37,640 --> 01:29:42,400 Speaker 1: the Din and Dash jerk who is facing thirteen years 1355 01:29:42,400 --> 01:29:46,479 Speaker 1: in jail. Yeah, it's real. Michael pelca in for Buck Sexton, 1356 01:29:46,560 --> 01:29:55,479 Speaker 1: Come on back. Michael pelke in for Bucks Sexton tonight. 1357 01:29:55,560 --> 01:29:59,120 Speaker 1: Buck is back tomorrow hanging out with the audience. I 1358 01:29:59,240 --> 01:30:04,400 Speaker 1: so appreciate you, and uh, we we've got politics happening tonight. 1359 01:30:04,560 --> 01:30:09,240 Speaker 1: As these primaries are going on. Of course, Arizona is 1360 01:30:09,320 --> 01:30:17,600 Speaker 1: picking the candidate to replace Jeff Flake, Senator Flake leaving retiring, 1361 01:30:18,560 --> 01:30:20,760 Speaker 1: and it's going to be interesting who's going to win 1362 01:30:20,840 --> 01:30:27,880 Speaker 1: that establishment favorite. Martha McSally, a veteran, could be there. 1363 01:30:28,680 --> 01:30:31,839 Speaker 1: You also could have Kelly Ward. And let's not forget 1364 01:30:31,920 --> 01:30:34,559 Speaker 1: Joe R. Pio. Sure if our Pio is in there. 1365 01:30:35,000 --> 01:30:38,879 Speaker 1: And at the same time, the governor, Governor Doug Doocey 1366 01:30:39,200 --> 01:30:43,680 Speaker 1: of Arizona has the task of replacing John McCain. Now 1367 01:30:43,720 --> 01:30:46,120 Speaker 1: he has to pick a Republican. Those are the rules 1368 01:30:46,120 --> 01:30:49,799 Speaker 1: in Arizona. You have to select someone of the same 1369 01:30:49,880 --> 01:30:54,479 Speaker 1: party of the guy you're replacing. So if if God forbid, 1370 01:30:54,560 --> 01:30:58,920 Speaker 1: Arizona had a Democratic governor and a Republican senator resigned 1371 01:30:58,960 --> 01:31:03,559 Speaker 1: in that state, the Democratic governor would be forced to 1372 01:31:03,680 --> 01:31:10,880 Speaker 1: replace the now deceased John McCain with another Republican. And 1373 01:31:10,920 --> 01:31:13,439 Speaker 1: I wonder maybe we should do a quick, uh, a 1374 01:31:13,560 --> 01:31:16,639 Speaker 1: quick poll for the rest of the show who should 1375 01:31:16,720 --> 01:31:19,640 Speaker 1: replace John McCain. Who do you think. There's talk of 1376 01:31:19,680 --> 01:31:23,400 Speaker 1: Sydney McCain, there's talk of Megan McCain and and there's 1377 01:31:23,439 --> 01:31:29,440 Speaker 1: six other McCain kids. There's talk of insiders, former associates 1378 01:31:29,479 --> 01:31:32,360 Speaker 1: of of Senator McCain stepping in. So who do you 1379 01:31:32,439 --> 01:31:37,200 Speaker 1: think should replace John McCain. We're going to have either 1380 01:31:37,640 --> 01:31:42,720 Speaker 1: mc sally or uh Kelly Ward or or Sheriff or 1381 01:31:42,800 --> 01:31:47,640 Speaker 1: Pyo as the the GOP nominee to face the Democrat 1382 01:31:47,720 --> 01:31:51,200 Speaker 1: for Jeff Flake seat. And that's not a lock, but 1383 01:31:51,360 --> 01:31:55,679 Speaker 1: we could put anyone, pretty much anyone in that seat 1384 01:31:56,320 --> 01:31:59,800 Speaker 1: to replace John McCain now that he's no longer with us, 1385 01:32:00,560 --> 01:32:03,640 Speaker 1: So that's a hot topic. We'll also get to the 1386 01:32:03,720 --> 01:32:06,240 Speaker 1: story of the d n C and their problem with 1387 01:32:06,280 --> 01:32:10,560 Speaker 1: their committees. They got a big gender problem with their committees, 1388 01:32:10,600 --> 01:32:12,639 Speaker 1: and most of that has to do with the fact 1389 01:32:12,720 --> 01:32:16,240 Speaker 1: that they got a big gender problem, So we'll dive 1390 01:32:16,280 --> 01:32:18,760 Speaker 1: into that. Michael Pelkin and for Buck sex and the 1391 01:32:18,880 --> 01:32:24,559 Speaker 1: number to suggest every place for for John McCain eight hundred, 1392 01:32:24,640 --> 01:32:27,360 Speaker 1: buck eight four four, nine hundred to a to five. 1393 01:32:27,520 --> 01:32:39,360 Speaker 1: Let's go. He's back with you now. Because when it 1394 01:32:39,400 --> 01:32:44,519 Speaker 1: comes to the fight for truth, the fuck never stops. 1395 01:32:44,560 --> 01:32:48,520 Speaker 1: Michael Pelka in for Bucks Sexton tonight. Buck returns tomorrow, 1396 01:32:48,520 --> 01:32:51,439 Speaker 1: happy to be here. We've got a half hour left here, 1397 01:32:51,479 --> 01:32:53,479 Speaker 1: a little bit less. If you want to weigh in, 1398 01:32:54,040 --> 01:32:58,160 Speaker 1: tell me who should governor doucy a point to John 1399 01:32:58,240 --> 01:33:02,720 Speaker 1: McCain's seat. I'm totally against a McCain family member, just 1400 01:33:02,880 --> 01:33:07,880 Speaker 1: completely against it. We don't have political families dynasties in 1401 01:33:07,960 --> 01:33:11,120 Speaker 1: this country. At least uh we did for a while. 1402 01:33:11,240 --> 01:33:14,719 Speaker 1: But I didn't like the Bush dynasty theory. I didn't 1403 01:33:14,760 --> 01:33:18,800 Speaker 1: like the Clinton dynasty theory. They're still thinking Chelsea has 1404 01:33:18,840 --> 01:33:23,679 Speaker 1: a shot. No, didn't like the Kennedy dynasty theory. So 1405 01:33:24,720 --> 01:33:28,719 Speaker 1: I'm against a McCain. So governor, you gotta pick somebody 1406 01:33:28,720 --> 01:33:32,360 Speaker 1: who will hold that seat till next time of that 1407 01:33:32,840 --> 01:33:37,040 Speaker 1: seat up for election, choose wisely, people, if you want 1408 01:33:37,080 --> 01:33:41,800 Speaker 1: to weigh in, eight four four Buck eight duck. Big 1409 01:33:41,840 --> 01:33:45,600 Speaker 1: news out of Florida in their primaries. Rhonda Santas a 1410 01:33:45,680 --> 01:33:51,160 Speaker 1: guy the the President endorsed is Um up for the 1411 01:33:51,320 --> 01:33:55,839 Speaker 1: gubernatorial race. So he's got a good shot, and maybe 1412 01:33:56,200 --> 01:34:00,599 Speaker 1: a Senate seat could flip with a Democratic senator flipping 1413 01:34:00,680 --> 01:34:05,080 Speaker 1: for Republican senator in that state as we'll be watching 1414 01:34:05,120 --> 01:34:08,960 Speaker 1: that in UH sixty nine and a half days are 1415 01:34:09,400 --> 01:34:13,400 Speaker 1: the Florida Governor Rick Scott is going to face off 1416 01:34:13,479 --> 01:34:17,920 Speaker 1: with Democratic Senator Bill Nelson in that race coming up 1417 01:34:17,960 --> 01:34:21,479 Speaker 1: just around the corner. So get people out and vote. 1418 01:34:21,960 --> 01:34:24,840 Speaker 1: And speaking of the Democrats, they've had an interesting couple 1419 01:34:24,880 --> 01:34:28,280 Speaker 1: of weeks as they're trying to figure out how they 1420 01:34:28,280 --> 01:34:31,880 Speaker 1: are going to go after the president. I know they're 1421 01:34:31,880 --> 01:34:35,439 Speaker 1: working state by state, district by district on mid terms. 1422 01:34:35,520 --> 01:34:41,280 Speaker 1: I know that's happening, so we already understand that. But 1423 01:34:41,400 --> 01:34:44,960 Speaker 1: the big question is going forward and they're starting to 1424 01:34:45,000 --> 01:34:49,519 Speaker 1: put the structure underneath them. We saw yesterday the news 1425 01:34:49,560 --> 01:34:54,160 Speaker 1: that the Democrats had basically stripped the super delegates from 1426 01:34:54,200 --> 01:34:58,920 Speaker 1: their selection of a candidate process, and the superdelegates were 1427 01:34:59,000 --> 01:35:03,960 Speaker 1: what Hillary Clint used to guarantee she would beat Bernie Sanders. 1428 01:35:04,640 --> 01:35:09,080 Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders had that that nomination stolen from him. I 1429 01:35:09,240 --> 01:35:13,080 Speaker 1: covered that campaign, both the GOP and the Democratic one. 1430 01:35:13,160 --> 01:35:17,040 Speaker 1: I attended rallies, I was at the conventions. Sanders had 1431 01:35:17,040 --> 01:35:19,640 Speaker 1: the energy, the crowds, the people. He did not have 1432 01:35:19,720 --> 01:35:23,960 Speaker 1: the machine behind him. They stole it from him. Debbie 1433 01:35:23,960 --> 01:35:26,400 Speaker 1: what's her name? Schultz should have been run out of 1434 01:35:26,439 --> 01:35:31,080 Speaker 1: that party. She's not. She was given cover and Bernie 1435 01:35:31,080 --> 01:35:35,280 Speaker 1: Sanders I didn't think. It's a little consolation to him now. 1436 01:35:36,280 --> 01:35:40,200 Speaker 1: But by removing the power of the super delegates, it 1437 01:35:40,240 --> 01:35:46,760 Speaker 1: won't happen again. Is Bernie strong enough to live through 1438 01:35:46,840 --> 01:35:50,600 Speaker 1: another one of these campaigns. He's pretty solid. He I 1439 01:35:50,640 --> 01:35:52,680 Speaker 1: think he's in better shape than Hillary, and he's a 1440 01:35:52,680 --> 01:35:56,160 Speaker 1: lot older than she is. But now the d n 1441 01:35:56,200 --> 01:36:02,280 Speaker 1: C has a problem, a gender problem, you know, because 1442 01:36:02,360 --> 01:36:05,000 Speaker 1: the way these progressives are, everything has to be fair, 1443 01:36:05,800 --> 01:36:10,680 Speaker 1: it has to be fairness. We have that fairness. So 1444 01:36:10,840 --> 01:36:16,920 Speaker 1: the d n c's charter modified recently to say that 1445 01:36:17,000 --> 01:36:21,920 Speaker 1: all committees in the Democratic National Committee, all the subcommittees 1446 01:36:22,640 --> 01:36:26,760 Speaker 1: would be evenly divided between men and women. And they 1447 01:36:26,800 --> 01:36:29,880 Speaker 1: were out there saying, you see, all of our committees 1448 01:36:29,920 --> 01:36:33,960 Speaker 1: are going to have gender equality. We're going to have 1449 01:36:34,120 --> 01:36:37,240 Speaker 1: gender equality between the men and the women. That's it's 1450 01:36:37,280 --> 01:36:40,760 Speaker 1: the way our party looks. We are a diverse party 1451 01:36:40,800 --> 01:36:44,439 Speaker 1: with a commitment to inclusion and opportunity. And then somebody, 1452 01:36:44,760 --> 01:36:51,800 Speaker 1: excuse me, Mr Chairman, Tom Perez danc chairman, excuse me, 1453 01:36:51,960 --> 01:36:56,760 Speaker 1: Mr chairman, what about the people that agenda fluid. What 1454 01:36:56,880 --> 01:37:00,120 Speaker 1: about the people who you know, sometimes they feel like 1455 01:37:00,280 --> 01:37:05,479 Speaker 1: and not sometimes they don't. What about those people? And 1456 01:37:05,479 --> 01:37:08,320 Speaker 1: they went, oh, way better of meeting. We're gonna have 1457 01:37:08,320 --> 01:37:09,800 Speaker 1: a meeting on this. We need to figure out what 1458 01:37:09,800 --> 01:37:11,840 Speaker 1: we're gonna do. Because there are people who identifies the 1459 01:37:11,920 --> 01:37:14,479 Speaker 1: different gender than the gender they are. Because you know, 1460 01:37:14,560 --> 01:37:17,759 Speaker 1: we've now said that there there are non binary gender 1461 01:37:17,840 --> 01:37:20,639 Speaker 1: non binary members, that people who use a different preferred 1462 01:37:20,640 --> 01:37:22,559 Speaker 1: gender pronoun because they wake up today and they say, 1463 01:37:22,560 --> 01:37:27,960 Speaker 1: I want to be this. So the Democratic National Committee 1464 01:37:28,040 --> 01:37:33,559 Speaker 1: voted on Saturday to modify its charter to define gender 1465 01:37:34,680 --> 01:37:39,080 Speaker 1: as being determined by the self identification in order to 1466 01:37:39,160 --> 01:37:45,519 Speaker 1: include a classification for gender non binary members, which, so 1467 01:37:45,680 --> 01:37:50,679 Speaker 1: what does that do? What does that even mean? In order, 1468 01:37:50,840 --> 01:37:54,240 Speaker 1: you were out there saying we are the greatest party ever, 1469 01:37:54,800 --> 01:37:58,040 Speaker 1: we are the party that has equal representation for men 1470 01:37:58,600 --> 01:38:03,120 Speaker 1: and women, and then now you have to say, and 1471 01:38:04,479 --> 01:38:07,400 Speaker 1: we are going to have to have equal representation for 1472 01:38:07,560 --> 01:38:09,960 Speaker 1: the l g B, t q R, S, t u 1473 01:38:10,080 --> 01:38:16,120 Speaker 1: V community. How do you even make this happen? Are 1474 01:38:16,120 --> 01:38:18,760 Speaker 1: you going to have to now say we're going to 1475 01:38:18,840 --> 01:38:22,720 Speaker 1: have a a member on every committee. I know I 1476 01:38:22,760 --> 01:38:26,519 Speaker 1: intentionally use the word member, thank you. Are we going 1477 01:38:26,560 --> 01:38:30,400 Speaker 1: to have a straight mail and then a gay mail 1478 01:38:31,160 --> 01:38:34,639 Speaker 1: and then a fluid mail? Are are we even allowed 1479 01:38:34,680 --> 01:38:37,600 Speaker 1: to say that? Do we say g? Are we going 1480 01:38:37,680 --> 01:38:41,679 Speaker 1: to have preferred gender pronoun requirements for all of meetings? 1481 01:38:42,479 --> 01:38:45,720 Speaker 1: Do you understand the madness that is inside that has 1482 01:38:45,800 --> 01:38:50,320 Speaker 1: infiltrated the Democratic Party. I don't think they even understand 1483 01:38:50,360 --> 01:38:55,080 Speaker 1: it themselves, And yet they're trying to say that this 1484 01:38:55,160 --> 01:39:00,000 Speaker 1: is a really good thing. We adopted language that expand 1485 01:39:00,040 --> 01:39:03,720 Speaker 1: ends our definition of gender and make sure we can 1486 01:39:03,760 --> 01:39:08,040 Speaker 1: have gender non binary, non binary individuals participating in our 1487 01:39:08,040 --> 01:39:11,040 Speaker 1: full process. Look, we want everyone to feel like they 1488 01:39:11,080 --> 01:39:16,519 Speaker 1: have a voice in this country. But when you and 1489 01:39:16,560 --> 01:39:20,479 Speaker 1: I'm looking at you Democratic people, when you tell me 1490 01:39:21,800 --> 01:39:26,080 Speaker 1: that I'm a science denier because I don't believe your 1491 01:39:26,160 --> 01:39:29,759 Speaker 1: gender up climate stuff that is really just a scheme 1492 01:39:29,920 --> 01:39:34,880 Speaker 1: to snatch money and redistribute wealth when it's really not 1493 01:39:34,960 --> 01:39:38,320 Speaker 1: going to do anything to change the air quality or 1494 01:39:38,320 --> 01:39:41,080 Speaker 1: the water quality. When you call me a science denier, 1495 01:39:41,640 --> 01:39:46,559 Speaker 1: but then you deny the science behind gender, you have 1496 01:39:46,680 --> 01:39:50,400 Speaker 1: no stance. You have absolutely no stance. So I love 1497 01:39:50,600 --> 01:39:54,720 Speaker 1: seeing the fact that the d n C, which has 1498 01:39:54,840 --> 01:39:59,840 Speaker 1: every opportunity let's let's be clear. The Republicans are not 1499 01:40:00,120 --> 01:40:05,680 Speaker 1: exactly acting efficiently in order to keep control of the process. 1500 01:40:06,400 --> 01:40:09,479 Speaker 1: We shoot ourselves in the foot a lot. And if 1501 01:40:09,520 --> 01:40:12,040 Speaker 1: the d n C had half of its act together, 1502 01:40:12,520 --> 01:40:16,519 Speaker 1: they would be stomping. Their blue wave would be a reality. 1503 01:40:16,560 --> 01:40:20,960 Speaker 1: But no, we've got them now running scared. Now they're 1504 01:40:21,000 --> 01:40:26,960 Speaker 1: being chased by their own party internally with their gender parity. 1505 01:40:27,200 --> 01:40:31,880 Speaker 1: You gotta have gender parity now on your committees, or 1506 01:40:31,960 --> 01:40:34,640 Speaker 1: somebody inside is gonna yell, you know, we don't have 1507 01:40:34,760 --> 01:40:37,760 Speaker 1: enough one legged lesbians on this and they need to 1508 01:40:37,800 --> 01:40:41,400 Speaker 1: have a Native American background too, otherwise we can't be 1509 01:40:41,439 --> 01:40:45,280 Speaker 1: the party of the people. Talk about losing your way, 1510 01:40:45,880 --> 01:40:49,679 Speaker 1: and I mean no insult, no disrespect to the one 1511 01:40:49,760 --> 01:40:54,200 Speaker 1: legged lesbians of Native American descent, But you should be 1512 01:40:54,200 --> 01:40:57,240 Speaker 1: guaranteed a member on a d n C committee if 1513 01:40:57,280 --> 01:41:02,639 Speaker 1: that's the reality in your life. I'm saying, so watch 1514 01:41:02,760 --> 01:41:05,439 Speaker 1: this space. There's a great story in the National Review 1515 01:41:05,479 --> 01:41:09,160 Speaker 1: from Jack Crow about it, talking about how the Democrats 1516 01:41:09,280 --> 01:41:12,960 Speaker 1: changed the rules to say, yay, our committees are equal 1517 01:41:13,040 --> 01:41:18,360 Speaker 1: men and women, and then somebody went, excuse me, and 1518 01:41:18,400 --> 01:41:22,360 Speaker 1: now they had to basically rewrite everything, so killing the 1519 01:41:22,439 --> 01:41:27,040 Speaker 1: super delegates and now making sure that your committees have 1520 01:41:27,280 --> 01:41:30,840 Speaker 1: equal representation from all over. And by the way, while 1521 01:41:30,840 --> 01:41:35,320 Speaker 1: we're talking about the d n c UM, what happened 1522 01:41:35,320 --> 01:41:39,600 Speaker 1: to Keith Ellison? What happened to Representative Keith Ellison, the 1523 01:41:39,600 --> 01:41:41,559 Speaker 1: guy who wants to be the attorney general in the 1524 01:41:41,600 --> 01:41:45,760 Speaker 1: state of Minnesota and was charged with some pretty serious 1525 01:41:47,080 --> 01:41:51,799 Speaker 1: sexual aggressive behavior by an X. What happened to that story? 1526 01:41:51,800 --> 01:41:55,200 Speaker 1: Why isn't that story getting any attention? Oh? Oh, that's right. 1527 01:41:56,280 --> 01:42:00,320 Speaker 1: He's a Democrat, so you won't see it any where. 1528 01:42:01,800 --> 01:42:07,240 Speaker 1: It's just astounding to me. I'm not excusing crimes committed 1529 01:42:07,240 --> 01:42:11,320 Speaker 1: by anybody on the right if they got caught misusing 1530 01:42:11,479 --> 01:42:16,160 Speaker 1: campaign funds, you know who I'm talking about. But remember 1531 01:42:16,240 --> 01:42:19,920 Speaker 1: the me too moment was everything. Al Franken has got 1532 01:42:20,000 --> 01:42:23,479 Speaker 1: to be asking, wait a minute, Ellison gets to stay 1533 01:42:23,640 --> 01:42:28,560 Speaker 1: and I had to go. Yeah, Ellison apparently gets to 1534 01:42:28,720 --> 01:42:33,599 Speaker 1: stay and Al Franken, who I bet you, is thinking 1535 01:42:33,600 --> 01:42:38,120 Speaker 1: about a run again. Al Franken is gone. So there 1536 01:42:38,240 --> 01:42:42,600 Speaker 1: is a duplicitous nature to all the politics here, but 1537 01:42:42,720 --> 01:42:45,240 Speaker 1: it just seems to be taken to the highest level 1538 01:42:45,680 --> 01:42:48,479 Speaker 1: when you put the word democrat in front of it. 1539 01:42:50,320 --> 01:42:52,559 Speaker 1: Michael Pelka in for Buck Sexon, I have to get 1540 01:42:52,720 --> 01:42:56,720 Speaker 1: some crazy stories today. There there's a crazy story out 1541 01:42:56,760 --> 01:43:05,960 Speaker 1: there about pot and breast milk. Now, I'm a big 1542 01:43:06,000 --> 01:43:10,240 Speaker 1: fan of medical marijuana, and I'm somebody who, admittedly, in 1543 01:43:10,280 --> 01:43:16,080 Speaker 1: my unsupervised years in college, probably smoked my weight in marijuana. 1544 01:43:16,120 --> 01:43:19,839 Speaker 1: But I stopped smoking pot when I became an adult 1545 01:43:19,960 --> 01:43:22,519 Speaker 1: and got a job, a big, full time job in 1546 01:43:22,720 --> 01:43:26,280 Speaker 1: radio a long, long time ago. And I know everybody's 1547 01:43:26,320 --> 01:43:29,400 Speaker 1: gonna wait, you worked on the Wacky Morning Zoo, and 1548 01:43:29,439 --> 01:43:32,160 Speaker 1: you know I didn't. I didn't smoke pot when I 1549 01:43:32,200 --> 01:43:35,320 Speaker 1: was working on the Wacky Morning Zoo. I thought that 1550 01:43:35,400 --> 01:43:38,760 Speaker 1: was for my youthful days. So I'm not a fan 1551 01:43:38,800 --> 01:43:42,519 Speaker 1: of recreational marijuana. I don't think it's we know enough 1552 01:43:42,560 --> 01:43:45,160 Speaker 1: about it. I don't think we have a handle on 1553 01:43:45,200 --> 01:43:48,160 Speaker 1: what it does to people who are driving cars, et cetera, 1554 01:43:48,360 --> 01:43:51,840 Speaker 1: operating heavy machinery. I don't think it's a good thing. 1555 01:43:52,960 --> 01:43:56,200 Speaker 1: Medical marijuana A completely different story. I happened to have 1556 01:43:56,280 --> 01:43:58,599 Speaker 1: a niece for whom a law was written in the 1557 01:43:58,640 --> 01:44:02,280 Speaker 1: state of Illinois, who now can go to school with 1558 01:44:02,439 --> 01:44:07,000 Speaker 1: normal kids because she no longer has seizures. Thank you 1559 01:44:07,080 --> 01:44:10,800 Speaker 1: to medical marijuana. I have a friend who suffers from 1560 01:44:11,080 --> 01:44:15,240 Speaker 1: MS and but for the medical marijuana he uses, he 1561 01:44:15,280 --> 01:44:20,200 Speaker 1: would not be able to function in society. You know him. 1562 01:44:20,240 --> 01:44:25,560 Speaker 1: His name is Monte Williams. So I'm pro medical marijuana. 1563 01:44:26,120 --> 01:44:30,120 Speaker 1: I'm against recreational marijuana, and now i have extra evidence 1564 01:44:30,160 --> 01:44:35,120 Speaker 1: to be against it. Uh. The waste from from recreational 1565 01:44:35,160 --> 01:44:40,280 Speaker 1: marijuana is destroying the water systems in Oregon and the 1566 01:44:40,320 --> 01:44:44,360 Speaker 1: Portland area. So those people who live in that real 1567 01:44:44,439 --> 01:44:48,960 Speaker 1: green area of Oregon, the Portland area, yeah, they're recreational 1568 01:44:49,000 --> 01:44:53,240 Speaker 1: pot use is killing the water, both the trash and 1569 01:44:53,360 --> 01:44:56,240 Speaker 1: the use of water to grow the stuff. And now 1570 01:44:56,320 --> 01:45:02,720 Speaker 1: we hear that nursing my there's who smoke pot. Think 1571 01:45:02,760 --> 01:45:06,960 Speaker 1: about this. Nursing mothers who smoke pot, they probably stopped 1572 01:45:07,040 --> 01:45:10,000 Speaker 1: drinking when they got pregnant and said I'm gonna go 1573 01:45:10,040 --> 01:45:12,240 Speaker 1: through my whole pregnancy and not have a drink. That's 1574 01:45:12,240 --> 01:45:14,120 Speaker 1: good for you. Good for you if you did that. 1575 01:45:14,800 --> 01:45:19,120 Speaker 1: I know my mother drank through every pregnancy. We had 1576 01:45:19,200 --> 01:45:22,400 Speaker 1: nine kids in our family. She wasn't hammered, but she 1577 01:45:22,520 --> 01:45:26,679 Speaker 1: had a glass of wine at night. But it's your choice. 1578 01:45:27,040 --> 01:45:31,120 Speaker 1: But now in this case, in this case, nursing mothers 1579 01:45:31,120 --> 01:45:36,479 Speaker 1: are now showing up with marijuana in the breast milk 1580 01:45:37,479 --> 01:45:41,679 Speaker 1: and it stays in the system for up to six days. 1581 01:45:41,800 --> 01:45:47,720 Speaker 1: We're hearing another reason why I'm against recreational use. And 1582 01:45:47,840 --> 01:45:51,519 Speaker 1: where is the outcry for the kids on this one? Simple? 1583 01:45:51,600 --> 01:45:53,160 Speaker 1: I know a lot of you are gonna say, Mike, 1584 01:45:53,200 --> 01:45:55,280 Speaker 1: you don't get it. Yeah, I do get it. We 1585 01:45:55,360 --> 01:45:58,160 Speaker 1: don't know enough yet. We need to be a little 1586 01:45:58,200 --> 01:46:01,479 Speaker 1: bit smarter. That's all I'm saying. I got a couple 1587 01:46:01,600 --> 01:46:04,479 Speaker 1: more weird stories have to share with you, and these 1588 01:46:04,479 --> 01:46:06,559 Speaker 1: are the crazy stories of the day.

I'm making a 1598 01:46:49,840 --> 01:46:54,760 Speaker 1: prediction tonight that Donald Trump's deal, his Napha deal, will 1599 01:46:54,840 --> 01:46:58,840 Speaker 1: be remembered as one of the greater deals, not just 1600 01:46:59,000 --> 01:47:01,959 Speaker 1: for what it did with trade between the US and Mexico, 1601 01:47:02,080 --> 01:47:05,720 Speaker 1: not of what it does to help Mexico's economy ultimately 1602 01:47:05,800 --> 01:47:10,240 Speaker 1: our economy, but how it shives China. And that's the 1603 01:47:10,360 --> 01:47:12,920 Speaker 1: art of the deal. So watch that space. Just keep 1604 01:47:12,960 --> 01:47:16,519 Speaker 1: an eye on that.
