Lies, lies and more 0:01:16.360 --> 0:01:19.600 lies from the media about the caravan for weeks all 0:01:19.640 --> 0:01:22.440 the way up to today. Just what is the truth 0:01:22.440 --> 0:01:25.080 of what's been going on south of our border and 0:01:25.240 --> 0:01:28.000 what can we do about it? Plus general motors cutting 0:01:28.000 --> 0:01:30.520 about fifteen thousand jobs. People are starting to say they're 0:01:30.560 --> 0:01:33.280 worried about the economy, China, the trade war. We will 0:01:33.280 --> 0:01:35.679 get to the truth separated from the fiction, and also 0:01:35.760 --> 0:01:37.640 the latest on the Mullar probe coming up on the 0:01:37.640 --> 0:01:42.000 buck Sexton Show. This is the buck Sexton Show where 0:01:42.000 --> 0:01:44.959 the mission or mission is to decode what really matters 0:01:45.240 --> 0:01:51.560 with actionable intelligence. Make no mistake American, You're a great 0:01:51.600 --> 0:02:00.880 American Again, The buck Sexton Show begins Analyst, No, here 0:02:01.000 --> 0:02:04.240 we look at children get being subjected to tear gas. 0:02:04.400 --> 0:02:07.360 That's the United States causing that. That's outrageous as we 0:02:07.400 --> 0:02:10.440 have seen the images of the children and the women, 0:02:10.880 --> 0:02:13.640 and there has got to be a pragmatic and compassionate 0:02:13.680 --> 0:02:16.880 answer here that does not involved here gassing children. That 0:02:17.040 --> 0:02:19.600 is not who America is. Little questions whether or not 0:02:19.639 --> 0:02:22.600 anyone actually through rocks. Yesterday MPR was reporting that actually 0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:27.320 it was relatively peaceful, Welcome to the buck section, Cheryl. 0:02:27.360 --> 0:02:34.079 The media is lying to you, lying through straight out falsehood, 0:02:34.200 --> 0:02:41.720 lying through misdirection, through exaggeration, all kinds of lies, omission, misdirection, 0:02:41.880 --> 0:02:46.400 you name it, lying to you about what's going on 0:02:46.520 --> 0:02:52.120 with immigration with illegal aliens. With every aspect of this 0:02:52.280 --> 0:02:58.880 debate and discussion, they are constantly throwing up nonsense and 0:02:59.040 --> 0:03:01.440 hoping that we don't catch on. Do it. Let me 0:03:01.480 --> 0:03:04.560 just give you a quick, a quick and dirty here 0:03:04.680 --> 0:03:08.000 on the lies on immigration. You're just hearing there about 0:03:08.000 --> 0:03:11.000 tear gass and children. No, they deployed tear gas against 0:03:11.040 --> 0:03:13.840 a mob, a mob that was using women and children 0:03:14.160 --> 0:03:17.880 as human shields while they threw rocks at border patrol officers. 0:03:17.919 --> 0:03:20.959 What it's border patrols supposed to do? Put down their shields, 0:03:20.960 --> 0:03:22.480 no tear gas. So yeah, I just threw rocks at 0:03:22.520 --> 0:03:26.000 us because you know there are kids around here. They 0:03:26.120 --> 0:03:29.080 have use of force protocols for a reason, and the 0:03:29.200 --> 0:03:34.040 use of force protocols were adhered to. But here are 0:03:34.080 --> 0:03:37.400 the biggest media eyes about the caravan crisis. Number one, 0:03:38.400 --> 0:03:44.080 it's mostly women and children. No, it is not, but 0:03:44.240 --> 0:03:47.000 you've heard that from so many people. Oh, it's women 0:03:47.000 --> 0:03:51.960 and children. It's women and children. That's not true. Why 0:03:52.000 --> 0:03:53.880 have you been told that so many times with the media, Well, 0:03:53.920 --> 0:03:57.840 because it's easy for them to lie about this. It 0:03:57.920 --> 0:04:03.800 makes their base happy. Number two, it's mostly valid asylum seekers. No, 0:04:03.960 --> 0:04:07.320 it is not. In fact, we'll play later for you. 0:04:07.360 --> 0:04:11.160 A guy at MSNBC made the I'm sure unforgivable over there, 0:04:11.720 --> 0:04:14.119 mistake of reporting on the truth of what is going 0:04:14.160 --> 0:04:18.240 on with this caravan. Big, big problem. You can't can't 0:04:18.279 --> 0:04:21.720 tell people the truth. They're not asylum seekers in a 0:04:21.800 --> 0:04:26.560 valid sense. They are fraudulent asylum seekers. They will say 0:04:26.560 --> 0:04:28.680 what they are told to say, what they're being coached 0:04:28.680 --> 0:04:31.160 to say at the border, when in reality they are 0:04:31.200 --> 0:04:34.520 economic migrants who are seeking to be in the United States. 0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:37.359 People keep saying, oh, they're seeking better opportunity. Yeah, I 0:04:37.360 --> 0:04:41.440 mean also they're seeking a large, safe, wealthy welfare state, 0:04:41.600 --> 0:04:44.640 which is what America is for a lot of legal aliens. 0:04:44.640 --> 0:04:48.920 So there's that. Number Three, another big media lie here. 0:04:49.080 --> 0:04:52.000 No criminals. Remember we were talking about in the early 0:04:52.080 --> 0:04:54.560 days the caravan, how there's probably criminal elements and there's 0:04:54.600 --> 0:04:57.680 a safety issue here. Oh no, no, no criminals. They 0:04:57.680 --> 0:05:01.680 were saying, Well, now it turns out that just based 0:05:01.720 --> 0:05:05.080 on whom they've already identified so far, we're looking at 0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:08.640 about six hundred criminals, which is roughly ten percent of 0:05:08.680 --> 0:05:13.520 the caravan overall, are known criminals apart from the criminal 0:05:13.520 --> 0:05:16.279 act of trying to cross in the United States not 0:05:16.360 --> 0:05:20.159 at a port of entry illegally. So there are plenty 0:05:20.200 --> 0:05:23.200 of people to look at here and say, oh, that 0:05:23.320 --> 0:05:25.760 that's actually a criminal. That's so that's a big line. 0:05:26.839 --> 0:05:31.680 Number five, no external organizers, No external organizers. Well, who 0:05:31.680 --> 0:05:34.360 are the people that are showing up and providing legal 0:05:34.440 --> 0:05:39.040 advice and food and water and assisting them? And oh, 0:05:39.160 --> 0:05:45.960 you mean there are organizers there? Yep. Of course. Number six, 0:05:45.960 --> 0:05:48.200 that the troop deployment is not helpful. It turns out 0:05:48.200 --> 0:05:53.400 the Customs and Border Patrol disagrees with the notion that 0:05:53.440 --> 0:05:56.000 the US military presence of the border was not helpful. 0:05:56.040 --> 0:05:58.000 They found that to be quite helpful and they could 0:05:58.080 --> 0:06:02.680 use more assistance. And then another lie here number seven, 0:06:02.680 --> 0:06:05.560 that there's no un there's no threat to US personnel 0:06:05.600 --> 0:06:09.800 posed by this whole caravan. Play play five and play six. 0:06:09.880 --> 0:06:13.240 Here Brandon Plan both kind of challenge that this was 0:06:13.279 --> 0:06:16.640 a peaceful protest or the majority of these people were 0:06:16.720 --> 0:06:20.200 claiming asylum. We ended up making about forty two arrests. 0:06:20.560 --> 0:06:23.000 Only eight of those were females, and there were only 0:06:23.040 --> 0:06:25.279 a few children involved. The vast majority of the people 0:06:25.320 --> 0:06:27.560 were dealing with their adult males. One of the groups 0:06:27.560 --> 0:06:30.240 that I watched one of the groups that actually several 0:06:30.279 --> 0:06:33.520 of them were arrested. They passed ten or fifteen marked 0:06:33.520 --> 0:06:36.400 Border patil units walking east to west or west to east. 0:06:36.440 --> 0:06:41.440 I'm sorry, numerous uniform personnel as they were chanting, waving 0:06:41.440 --> 0:06:45.000 a Honduran flag and throwing rocks at the agents. If 0:06:45.000 --> 0:06:47.599 they were truly asylum seekers, they would have just walked 0:06:47.680 --> 0:06:49.479 up with their hands up and surrendered, and that did 0:06:49.520 --> 0:06:52.440 not take place. What I find uncomfortable is that people 0:06:52.480 --> 0:06:56.040 would intentionally take children into this situation. What we saw 0:06:56.080 --> 0:06:59.400 over and over yesterday was that the group, the caravan 0:06:59.640 --> 0:07:02.640 as we call them, would push women and children towards 0:07:02.680 --> 0:07:06.920 the front and then begin basically rocking our agents. Our 0:07:06.960 --> 0:07:10.640 agents were being an assaulted. Large group rushed the area 0:07:10.800 --> 0:07:14.840 and they were throwing rocks and bottles at my men 0:07:14.880 --> 0:07:17.400 and women, putting them in harm's way as well as 0:07:17.560 --> 0:07:21.880 other members of the caravan. We needed to disperse the group, 0:07:22.240 --> 0:07:25.000 and with that assaultive nature, it was it was imperative 0:07:25.040 --> 0:07:29.160 that we dispersed them from the area. And we started 0:07:29.200 --> 0:07:30.760 off the show with all these people like, oh, they're 0:07:30.760 --> 0:07:36.400 tear gassing children. That's just a lot. They deployed tear 0:07:36.440 --> 0:07:40.239 gas against rioters and rock throwers and some people happen 0:07:40.280 --> 0:07:44.320 to have children there. This would be like saying they're 0:07:44.440 --> 0:07:49.400 they're they're shooting children. They're shooting children, Uh, you know, 0:07:49.680 --> 0:07:51.920 at when when the police have to intervene in a 0:07:52.040 --> 0:07:55.920 terrorist incident. No, they they shot at people who were 0:07:56.040 --> 0:07:59.120 terrorists and there were children nearby because they were trying 0:07:59.120 --> 0:08:01.560 to save lives. It would not be it would not 0:08:01.600 --> 0:08:04.040 be a proper description to just say, well they shot 0:08:04.040 --> 0:08:06.320 at children. Yeah, there were bullets that were flying, but 0:08:06.360 --> 0:08:08.320 they weren't actually trying to hurt the children. They were 0:08:08.360 --> 0:08:10.320 trying to get other people. I mean. But this is 0:08:10.360 --> 0:08:13.600 what I mean. This is this is what the media does, 0:08:13.640 --> 0:08:17.960 whether it's you know, reporting on how Hamas operates against 0:08:18.000 --> 0:08:21.760 Israel or reporting on how our own border patrol deals 0:08:21.760 --> 0:08:23.920 with people trying to get across the border. They just 0:08:24.080 --> 0:08:29.160 find ways to twist it, to lie about it. Here's 0:08:29.160 --> 0:08:33.199 a perfect example. There are photos there are journalists, lots 0:08:33.200 --> 0:08:34.480 of people down there. I was actually going to go 0:08:34.520 --> 0:08:36.280 down there this week, but the last minute my travel 0:08:36.280 --> 0:08:39.960 plants had to change. I wanted to go, but I 0:08:40.000 --> 0:08:42.400 basically couldn't get somebody to cover from me on Rising 0:08:42.440 --> 0:08:44.760 and so I had to I got responsibilities, but I 0:08:44.800 --> 0:08:46.000 was trying to get down there for the whole week. 0:08:46.000 --> 0:08:48.440 Hopefully they'll get down there soon. There's plenty of people 0:08:48.480 --> 0:08:51.360 covering this issue, lots of media down there. They see 0:08:51.400 --> 0:08:54.440 what's going on, they know, but you can do this anywhere. 0:08:54.480 --> 0:08:58.880 They pick one photo, one photo to talk about on 0:08:59.440 --> 0:09:03.439 TV as though that's indicative of everything that's happening and 0:09:03.720 --> 0:09:07.680 the entire problem. You know, here's the media just freaking 0:09:07.679 --> 0:09:10.120 out about this play eight. But look at the photo. 0:09:10.200 --> 0:09:14.520 See for yourself. That group and includes men, women, and 0:09:14.679 --> 0:09:17.240 several children, some of them trying to cross after being 0:09:17.240 --> 0:09:19.840 denied access to the port of entry where they could 0:09:19.920 --> 0:09:24.120 legally claim asylum. One photo shows a mother struggling to 0:09:24.160 --> 0:09:26.480 scoop up her children and flee the fumes. And in 0:09:26.559 --> 0:09:30.680 this photo shared around the world, shows a family running 0:09:30.720 --> 0:09:34.559 from the fumes. This is a shameful American moment. It's 0:09:34.600 --> 0:09:38.080 a shameful American moment. Those children, those pictures are the 0:09:38.120 --> 0:09:40.719 pictures we saw at the end of the Vietnam War. 0:09:42.679 --> 0:09:44.320 Comparing this to the end of Vietnam War, I mean, 0:09:45.120 --> 0:09:47.600 these people have no shame. They also seem to have 0:09:47.640 --> 0:09:50.560 no brains, but they have no shame. They're all talking 0:09:50.559 --> 0:09:52.960 about the same photo. I saw that there was one 0:09:53.040 --> 0:09:55.880 photo they really like, just like when we had family 0:09:55.920 --> 0:09:58.160 separation to shoot the border. Remember, they showed the child 0:09:58.240 --> 0:10:00.240 who was crying, and that was emblematic of the whole 0:10:00.280 --> 0:10:03.720 situation that was supposed to symbolize all of it turns 0:10:03.720 --> 0:10:05.880 out that she wasn't even separated from her family. And 0:10:06.080 --> 0:10:10.280 when you learn the backstory of the photo, it's propaganda. 0:10:10.280 --> 0:10:13.280 It's it's not an honest representation of what was going 0:10:13.320 --> 0:10:16.160 on there. And to say that what's happened at the 0:10:16.200 --> 0:10:19.040 border to find one family with a woman, you know, 0:10:19.040 --> 0:10:22.280 who's grabbing her child by the arm, I gotta tell you. 0:10:22.760 --> 0:10:26.160 If you've got small kids and you think that bring 0:10:26.160 --> 0:10:29.319 them into a riot situation is smart, you know, at 0:10:29.320 --> 0:10:32.160 what point do the parents deserve a whole On a second, 0:10:32.240 --> 0:10:36.240 what the heck are you doing here? Moment? You know, 0:10:36.240 --> 0:10:38.680 put your children in harm's way? And that way, what 0:10:38.760 --> 0:10:41.120 if just this mob that's trying to crawl over the 0:10:41.160 --> 0:10:44.680 fences and overrun border patrol, of one of them, you know, 0:10:44.800 --> 0:10:46.679 runs into your child, runs over your child, A is 0:10:46.679 --> 0:10:48.120 it trying to flee the to your gas. I mean, 0:10:48.120 --> 0:10:53.360 it's just a dangerous situation. And the fact that there 0:10:53.360 --> 0:10:55.160 are all these reports that they actually try to push 0:10:55.200 --> 0:10:58.679 them the women in the caravan forward, push the children forward, 0:10:58.960 --> 0:11:01.920 goes to show you, at least in some cases, what 0:11:02.040 --> 0:11:05.360 kind of men we're really dealing with here. Are these 0:11:05.400 --> 0:11:07.560 people of honor and integrity who are trying to come 0:11:07.600 --> 0:11:11.000 across the border. If they're putting women and children in 0:11:11.360 --> 0:11:15.719 front as they are antagonizing and assaulting police, I think 0:11:15.720 --> 0:11:18.839 we all know the answer to that. And also this 0:11:18.920 --> 0:11:23.640 notion that throwing rocks is not a big deal. Let 0:11:23.640 --> 0:11:25.439 me tell you to all the libs over at c 0:11:25.600 --> 0:11:28.520 in An MSNBC who were acting like that's just you 0:11:28.559 --> 0:11:32.000 know what happens, man, No, it is not. If they 0:11:32.000 --> 0:11:35.000 were to try throwing a rock at a DC Metro cop, 0:11:36.160 --> 0:11:38.160 they'd be lucky if the worst that happened was that 0:11:38.160 --> 0:11:40.400 the guy pulled out of baton and went to work 0:11:40.440 --> 0:11:43.800 on their knees. While they arrested them. You don't get 0:11:43.840 --> 0:11:48.440 to throw rocks at people just you know, think about 0:11:48.440 --> 0:11:50.760 this form. What if one of those rocks actually had 0:11:50.800 --> 0:11:52.640 hit a border patrol agent in the temple? I mean, 0:11:52.880 --> 0:11:55.679 what if it hit him in the nose? Did you 0:11:55.720 --> 0:11:58.880 want to be that border patrol agent. We're not talking 0:11:58.920 --> 0:12:01.800 about mean words. We're talking about protests. We're talking about 0:12:01.800 --> 0:12:05.920 people who are engaged in assault with a weapon, using 0:12:05.960 --> 0:12:10.800 a projectile here. You know, I like that that Tom 0:12:10.840 --> 0:12:14.199 Homan's out there, somebody's out there with real back and 0:12:14.320 --> 0:12:17.840 real knowledge calling this stuff out. This idea that the 0:12:17.880 --> 0:12:20.800 tear gas was an overrepresentation, no notice that we're never 0:12:20.880 --> 0:12:23.120 dealing with the substance of the issue, which is there's 0:12:23.160 --> 0:12:27.720 an invasion of illegal aliens trying to overrun a US 0:12:27.840 --> 0:12:33.319 border patrol sector and with the Democratic Party cheering it 0:12:33.400 --> 0:12:36.840 on and running interference. That's what's happening. But then they'll 0:12:36.880 --> 0:12:39.920 find one photo, They'll find one aspect, oh, the tear 0:12:40.000 --> 0:12:43.760 gas that was used. That's the entire news story from 0:12:43.760 --> 0:12:48.480 their perspective. Emotionalize it, personalize it, go a Lynsky on this. 0:12:48.520 --> 0:12:52.120 Don't allow this to be a real national level policy discussion. 0:12:53.040 --> 0:12:55.840 Don't allow people to figure out that what's really at 0:12:55.840 --> 0:12:57.960 stake here is is the United States a country or not? 0:12:58.040 --> 0:13:01.280 Do we have sovereignty? Do we have control over our borders? 0:13:03.000 --> 0:13:05.120 I mentioned Tom Holman, he's laying it down play ten. 0:13:06.960 --> 0:13:08.599 A lot of these people, based on iron intelligence, have 0:13:08.679 --> 0:13:11.080 been deported before, so when they enter the country, that's 0:13:11.080 --> 0:13:12.719 a felony. But one thing I want to say, they'll 0:13:12.720 --> 0:13:14.599 put the nastairs on tier. Guys need to get this 0:13:14.640 --> 0:13:17.360 out for those stairs put on you in the forum, 0:13:17.480 --> 0:13:19.640 strap a gun to your hip, get rock stone at 0:13:19.679 --> 0:13:21.480 you and tell me there wasn't a better response. It's 0:13:21.559 --> 0:13:24.439 non lethal law enforcement response. I was proper concerned they're 0:13:24.480 --> 0:13:30.280 being assaulted. Yeah, what do they want them to do? 0:13:31.360 --> 0:13:34.839 What do they think the proper response is when law 0:13:34.920 --> 0:13:38.559 enforcement is being assaulted? I remember that's what Border patrol is, 0:13:38.920 --> 0:13:42.520 sworn law enforcement. They are armed law enforcement officers. A 0:13:42.559 --> 0:13:43.959 lot of them, by the way, are veterans, and a 0:13:44.000 --> 0:13:47.880 lot of them are Hispanic and Latino. So while we're 0:13:47.880 --> 0:13:50.880 always told that they're racist, terrible, you know, like the 0:13:51.600 --> 0:13:55.920 stormtroopers from Star Wars, the truth is that these are 0:13:55.960 --> 0:13:59.280 Americans doing a very important job. Many of them are minorities, 0:13:59.320 --> 0:14:02.560 many of them are veterans, but the left will spit 0:14:02.600 --> 0:14:06.680 on them anyway, just like they'll spit on ice. Abolish Ice. 0:14:06.720 --> 0:14:10.840 They were saying all Summers people are a disgrace, a 0:14:10.880 --> 0:14:14.760 total disgrace. I'm a Democratic party. They've lost they have 0:14:14.920 --> 0:14:18.480 lost their mind on this issue, and they're not to 0:14:18.520 --> 0:14:24.400 be taken seriously because they are unserious. It's troubling that 0:14:24.520 --> 0:14:26.120 this plays out in the way that it does. It. 0:14:26.600 --> 0:14:29.400 It's bothersome to me that we have to sit here 0:14:29.440 --> 0:14:34.440 and watches CNN and all these other channels engage in 0:14:34.520 --> 0:14:40.080 just the worst kind of distortions, the worst kind of 0:14:40.080 --> 0:14:45.760 of left wing propagandizing about how some as though, you know, 0:14:45.880 --> 0:14:49.520 the Trump administration has set up a bunch of thugs 0:14:49.520 --> 0:14:51.840 at the statue of liberty, turning away the you know, 0:14:51.880 --> 0:14:53.680 the tired, the weak, and the hungry of the world 0:14:53.680 --> 0:14:56.800 at all this No, we have a border with people 0:14:56.840 --> 0:15:01.600 that are trying to buy force overrun it because now 0:15:02.480 --> 0:15:05.360 we've finally figured out that the scam that they're running, 0:15:06.000 --> 0:15:08.480 and enough people understand what's really going on here that 0:15:08.560 --> 0:15:10.280 letting them into the interior of the United States is 0:15:10.320 --> 0:15:13.600 no longer really an option. So what are they doing 0:15:13.600 --> 0:15:16.920 although they're forcing this confrontation, but after all of the 0:15:17.000 --> 0:15:19.400 lies the leftist told on this, why would you believe 0:15:19.480 --> 0:15:23.320 anything they have to say on immigration? Now? Why should 0:15:23.400 --> 0:15:28.400 we listen to a single word that Pelosi and Schumer 0:15:28.400 --> 0:15:32.920 and you know, the CNN, MSNBC, New York Times, Washington 0:15:33.040 --> 0:15:39.400 Post fraudulence complex engages in you? Why should we listen 0:15:39.440 --> 0:15:42.920 to any of their nonsense at all. They're not telling 0:15:42.960 --> 0:15:45.160 you the truth, They're not presenting the facts to you 0:15:45.680 --> 0:15:50.080 in order to illuminate the issue. They want to spread 0:15:50.200 --> 0:15:54.880 a narrative. This is about power for them, and I 0:15:55.040 --> 0:15:57.480 wish conservatives would would wake up a little more to 0:15:57.520 --> 0:16:00.640 the fact that this is it. This is the end game. 0:16:01.520 --> 0:16:07.080 If they can truly de facto eradicate our southern border, 0:16:07.520 --> 0:16:10.800 and if more caravans come, more people come, more illegals come, 0:16:10.840 --> 0:16:15.160 and then they're able, whether it's through lucky timing for 0:16:15.200 --> 0:16:17.440 them in terms of the presidential election in twenty twenty, 0:16:17.480 --> 0:16:20.000 if they're able to get the House, the Senate and 0:16:20.720 --> 0:16:23.720 the presidency at one time, the first thing they will 0:16:23.760 --> 0:16:27.920 do is amnesty. And the Republican Party is dead, It's gone, 0:16:28.840 --> 0:16:32.000 it is finished. Because as I've been telling you it's 0:16:32.040 --> 0:16:36.040 ambacy for twenty million eleven is a lie. Oh, speaking 0:16:36.080 --> 0:16:40.120 of lies, another lie. Got a jam pack chare for 0:16:40.160 --> 0:16:45.040 your the teams. So stay with me. I'll be right back. Clearly, 0:16:45.040 --> 0:16:48.360 this goes back to Barack Obama's presidency when he created 0:16:48.400 --> 0:16:51.680 the DACA problem without ever trying to solve it. He said, literally, 0:16:51.720 --> 0:16:55.480 come to America illegally, bring your kids here illegally. He 0:16:55.600 --> 0:16:57.560 never tried to fix it. They never. In fact, when 0:16:57.560 --> 0:17:00.920 Pelosi had the House state a supermajority the Senate, they 0:17:01.000 --> 0:17:03.080 never tried to bring a bill to fix the problem. 0:17:03.080 --> 0:17:05.960 They wanted a political issue. President Trump comes into office, 0:17:06.280 --> 0:17:09.239 Chuck Schumer initially was willing to work with him on 0:17:09.280 --> 0:17:11.919 a solution of DOCA that included funding for the wall. 0:17:12.160 --> 0:17:15.119 Then the radical left went nuts and Chumer pulled that 0:17:15.520 --> 0:17:18.520 deal off the table. We've tried to pass bills through 0:17:18.560 --> 0:17:21.920 the House to solve the interior loophole problems that you've 0:17:21.920 --> 0:17:24.560 cited so many times, as well as funding the wall. 0:17:24.680 --> 0:17:27.119 Not one Democrat. We've had two different approaches on this. 0:17:27.480 --> 0:17:29.200 So no matter where you are on this, there was 0:17:29.200 --> 0:17:31.520 a chance for you to vote to solve the problem. 0:17:33.880 --> 0:17:38.200 This is a legacy of the Obama administration. Again, with 0:17:39.280 --> 0:17:41.760 our media the way that it is, they don't spend 0:17:41.800 --> 0:17:45.400 any time telling anybody that, but it was the Obama administration. 0:17:45.440 --> 0:17:50.879 You will recall that had the lack of well, I 0:17:50.880 --> 0:17:52.480 was gonna say lack of wisdom, But I actually know 0:17:52.520 --> 0:17:55.679 that they've wanted this all along. They were looking for 0:17:55.760 --> 0:17:59.880 ways to allow there to be more people to come 0:17:59.880 --> 0:18:04.120 into the country who are leaving third world countries where 0:18:04.119 --> 0:18:10.399 they have very generally speaking, low levels of education and 0:18:11.119 --> 0:18:13.720 ability to speak English, and they go right to the 0:18:13.760 --> 0:18:15.840 front of the line, so to spin the plan. That's 0:18:15.840 --> 0:18:20.000 been the all along. What this has has done for 0:18:20.040 --> 0:18:22.840 the left, this idea that if you show up at 0:18:22.880 --> 0:18:24.719 the border with a family unit, you must get let 0:18:24.760 --> 0:18:27.920 into the country. You know, I don't think that. I 0:18:27.920 --> 0:18:29.720 don't think a Honduran migrants came up with this on 0:18:30.080 --> 0:18:34.520 their own. By the way, there have been international NGOs 0:18:34.560 --> 0:18:38.560 pushing this. There have even been some of our foreign partners, 0:18:38.640 --> 0:18:44.000 you know, foreign national activity pushing this. And it's really 0:18:44.040 --> 0:18:47.440 a form of lawfare against the United States, right using 0:18:47.440 --> 0:18:51.439 the law as its own weapon of war against this country, 0:18:51.480 --> 0:18:56.280 in this case, a weapon against our immigration policies and 0:18:56.400 --> 0:18:59.359 for those who are open borders extremists, which is increasingly 0:18:59.400 --> 0:19:05.040 just the Democrat Party. This has been very effective if 0:19:05.040 --> 0:19:06.840 it's just women and children on the board, or why 0:19:06.880 --> 0:19:08.640 are we being so mean? You'll notice that they did 0:19:08.640 --> 0:19:11.080 this for a while as well with refugee policy, and 0:19:11.119 --> 0:19:12.760 they kept saying that there are you know, there's no 0:19:13.160 --> 0:19:15.119 there's never been a threat against the United States. We 0:19:15.160 --> 0:19:17.600 don't need to do extreme vetting. And then all actually 0:19:17.600 --> 0:19:20.560 we let in a few people that either themselves or 0:19:20.600 --> 0:19:24.720 they're immediate family members were terrorists, so that change that 0:19:24.760 --> 0:19:27.120 conversation a little bit. But just like what they've done here, 0:19:27.359 --> 0:19:30.159 lie after lie, it's all women and children. There are 0:19:30.200 --> 0:19:33.760 no criminals. They're never going to get here anyway. They 0:19:33.800 --> 0:19:36.280 have no credibility anymore on this. But we need to 0:19:36.280 --> 0:19:38.080 fix it and to fix it, which brings us then 0:19:38.119 --> 0:19:41.359 to the conversation about funding in the wall and the shutdown. 0:19:41.480 --> 0:19:44.960 We will certainly get into that and oh so much 0:19:45.000 --> 0:19:47.080 more teams they would be. She says that she's hoping 0:19:47.119 --> 0:19:49.480 that they give her a chance to work. That's what 0:19:49.600 --> 0:19:52.120 we've heard from this family. This family hasn't really talked 0:19:52.119 --> 0:19:54.520 about asylum per se. They are saying that they don't 0:19:54.520 --> 0:19:57.040 even want to come to the United States, and definitely 0:19:57.119 --> 0:20:01.240 they're going to be asking for permission to work for 0:20:01.840 --> 0:20:04.480 three to four years. From what we've seen, the majority 0:20:04.560 --> 0:20:07.560 are actually men, and some of these men have not 0:20:07.720 --> 0:20:11.320 articulated that need for asylum. Instead they have talked about, 0:20:11.560 --> 0:20:13.320 you know, going to the United States for a better 0:20:13.359 --> 0:20:17.400 life and to find work. Whoa somebody better code read 0:20:17.480 --> 0:20:23.719 that MSNBC reporter, because what is he doing speaking the 0:20:23.760 --> 0:20:30.520 truth about the caravan? That is unacceptable over at MSNBC. 0:20:30.720 --> 0:20:32.720 You are not allowed to do that. You have to 0:20:32.760 --> 0:20:36.240 stick to the narrative. You have to stay with all 0:20:36.400 --> 0:20:38.960 of the lies, right. I mean, they've made it very 0:20:39.000 --> 0:20:42.000 clear where they stand on this stuff. They don't want 0:20:42.040 --> 0:20:46.280 people getting all all upity with the facts. Much better 0:20:46.359 --> 0:20:50.359 for them to believe that this is a group of 0:20:50.400 --> 0:20:56.560 women and children fleeing certain you know, violence, murder, extermination. 0:20:56.600 --> 0:21:01.320 If they stay in Honduras country of nine million people 0:21:01.400 --> 0:21:04.720 that is not currently yet war and if we take 0:21:04.760 --> 0:21:08.199 in these people, by the way, then why shouldn't we 0:21:08.200 --> 0:21:10.000 have to take in all the rest of the millions 0:21:10.000 --> 0:21:12.440 of Hondurans who would rather be an American than in 0:21:12.440 --> 0:21:15.560 a Honduras. Does anyone want to even try to answer 0:21:15.560 --> 0:21:17.760 that question. No, you never get any any answers from 0:21:17.800 --> 0:21:21.480 Democrats on this stuff. You just get more of what 0:21:21.560 --> 0:21:27.679 they have been doing all along, which is essentially lying 0:21:27.720 --> 0:21:29.800 to you about all this. Here, let's just have some 0:21:29.840 --> 0:21:34.640 fun for a moment. Remember when Jim Acosta got into 0:21:34.640 --> 0:21:38.159 trouble and and that whole back and forth with TROMP 0:21:38.240 --> 0:21:41.040 and it led to them the press pass revocation, all 0:21:41.080 --> 0:21:43.040 that stuff, right, Remember all that stuff that happened there, 0:21:43.720 --> 0:21:47.640 and what Acosta is said then, which this was now 0:21:47.680 --> 0:21:49.919 what two weeks ago. I just want to take a 0:21:49.920 --> 0:21:54.000 little go in the in the in the way back machine, 0:21:54.000 --> 0:21:56.439 if you will, for a second. Here, now that we 0:21:56.520 --> 0:21:59.119 know what's happened, I mean here, here's here's what it 0:21:59.160 --> 0:22:02.280 sounds like with order at the border crossing of Sandy 0:22:02.320 --> 0:22:17.200 Cedro in California, with migrants rushing play clip three bombas 0:22:17.280 --> 0:22:19.359 vambas were. You know, they're all saying, let's go, let's go. 0:22:19.359 --> 0:22:22.920 They're trying to overrun and climb over a wall. Remember 0:22:22.920 --> 0:22:25.640 when Acosta was given that whole lecture to the president, 0:22:25.680 --> 0:22:27.600 and the President wasn't having any of it. Here's just 0:22:27.640 --> 0:22:29.600 a little just a little little taste of what that 0:22:29.640 --> 0:22:31.760 was like. Play clip one for your campaign had an 0:22:31.760 --> 0:22:36.239 ad showing migrants climbing over walls and it. But they 0:22:36.240 --> 0:22:38.840 weren't actor not going to be doing they weren't actress. Well, no, 0:22:38.880 --> 0:22:41.119 it's true. Do you think they were actors. They were 0:22:41.119 --> 0:22:45.880 an actress. They didn't come from Hollywood climbing over walls. 0:22:46.040 --> 0:22:49.800 Your campaign has climbing the walls. They're not going to 0:22:49.920 --> 0:22:54.240 be doing that. Now you could say that Will Buck 0:22:54.320 --> 0:22:58.800 he's he's making an analytic judgment there, or you know, 0:22:58.880 --> 0:23:04.000 he's essentially speculating. But to that, I would respond, why 0:23:04.040 --> 0:23:06.840 the heck is a White House corresponded, challenging the president 0:23:06.880 --> 0:23:09.440 with speculation. If he doesn't know what the heck he's 0:23:09.440 --> 0:23:11.959 talking about, maybe he should shut his dumb mouth. How 0:23:12.000 --> 0:23:16.720 about that he says they're not going to be doing that, Well, 0:23:16.760 --> 0:23:21.560 we know, in fact, they are going to be doing that. 0:23:22.680 --> 0:23:28.000 So I would just note that, you know, maybe maybe 0:23:28.040 --> 0:23:30.000 a little bit of humility from the press going forward 0:23:30.040 --> 0:23:31.600 on this stuff would be would be in order. But 0:23:31.640 --> 0:23:34.440 that's we know that's that's not gonna happen, right, No 0:23:34.640 --> 0:23:38.159 way that's gonna happen. And then that brings me to 0:23:39.640 --> 0:23:43.040 other places, and I've been telling you that the real Yeah, 0:23:43.040 --> 0:23:45.399 if there's anything you can take away from from this 0:23:45.640 --> 0:23:48.159 part of the show so far, it's how much you 0:23:48.200 --> 0:23:52.840 have been lied to about this caravan. And that's really 0:23:52.920 --> 0:23:55.640 emblematic of how much we are all lied to about 0:23:55.640 --> 0:23:58.919 immigration all the time. We're constantly lied to about this, 0:23:59.440 --> 0:24:04.040 lie after lie after lie. And remember when they were 0:24:04.040 --> 0:24:06.719 saying that one, it's not an invasion, which I think 0:24:06.760 --> 0:24:08.159 when you have a mass of people and you have 0:24:08.200 --> 0:24:10.920 to deploy tear gas and they're overrunning your border, that's 0:24:10.960 --> 0:24:14.480 an invasion. And also the caravan they were saying is 0:24:14.520 --> 0:24:16.920 not even gonna be a thing because it's not even 0:24:16.920 --> 0:24:20.400 gonna show up playlip two. There is no invasion, there 0:24:20.560 --> 0:24:25.439 is no emergency. They're panicked about this fake invasion. For 0:24:25.520 --> 0:24:27.879 everybody out there that was telling me, no, it's a 0:24:27.920 --> 0:24:31.119 real story. We're worried about the caravan to come in, 0:24:31.240 --> 0:24:33.960 and Trump's strong enough to I go back to what 0:24:34.000 --> 0:24:37.240 I said about Martians coming to my backyard. Well they're 0:24:37.240 --> 0:24:40.840 not coming. The caravan's not coming, the leprosy is not coming. 0:24:42.720 --> 0:24:44.919 So there's just Joe Scarbrow going er and say, you know, 0:24:44.960 --> 0:24:47.360 maybe I shouldn't have said that maybe I'm a buffoon 0:24:48.119 --> 0:24:54.600 and my show is really about snarky, snarky liberal sensibilities 0:24:54.720 --> 0:24:57.560 getting a platform to be shared with other snarky liberals 0:24:57.600 --> 0:25:02.639 so they can feel so superior in their stupidity because 0:25:02.760 --> 0:25:05.080 there's so much dumb stuff that is said on that show. 0:25:05.119 --> 0:25:07.640 I mean that, of all the shows out there these 0:25:07.720 --> 0:25:09.960 days that are not on CNN, I've got to say 0:25:10.040 --> 0:25:14.720 MSNBC is among the wol Morning Joe is among the 0:25:14.760 --> 0:25:18.919 worst offenders for just being pathologically anti Trump. Like they 0:25:18.920 --> 0:25:20.760 can be anti Trump, that's fine, but they're anti Trump 0:25:20.800 --> 0:25:23.160 to the point where you can't take anything they say 0:25:23.200 --> 0:25:28.439 seriously because they are unserious. Right, They're not trying to 0:25:28.880 --> 0:25:32.200 present facts to people. They're trying to present a very 0:25:32.280 --> 0:25:36.680 specific and curated anti Trump narrative. It's just anti Trump propaganda, 0:25:36.880 --> 0:25:40.920 that's what they are doing. And you know that they've 0:25:40.960 --> 0:25:43.320 been wrong about this for weeks and weeks and weeks. 0:25:43.320 --> 0:25:45.960 And do you see anyone saying, you know, maya culpa, 0:25:46.160 --> 0:25:48.000 any of these big media's ong in your heads. We 0:25:48.040 --> 0:25:50.560 were saying, you know what, maybe they won't say they lied, 0:25:50.600 --> 0:25:53.280 but we got this one way wrong. Turns out, the 0:25:53.280 --> 0:25:55.600 caravan wasn't as you know, of course not. They're not 0:25:55.640 --> 0:25:58.960 gonna do any of that. There's no honesty, no introspection 0:25:59.000 --> 0:26:01.200 you can expect from the media. They will just continue 0:26:01.200 --> 0:26:04.920 to do what they have always done, which is saying 0:26:04.960 --> 0:26:06.560 what they have to say in the moment that is 0:26:06.600 --> 0:26:12.840 of greatest of greatest use utility for them, and then 0:26:12.880 --> 0:26:14.720 just move on and act like it never happened the 0:26:14.760 --> 0:26:17.679 moment that it goes bad for them, That's what they do. This. 0:26:17.720 --> 0:26:21.280 It reminds me of why also, you know, the funding, 0:26:21.280 --> 0:26:23.280 we're gonna talking more about the shutdown of the next hour. 0:26:23.359 --> 0:26:25.199 I will get into that. As you know, I tend 0:26:25.240 --> 0:26:27.280 to be pretty cynical about the whole shutdown issue. Here's 0:26:27.280 --> 0:26:30.879 what Lindsay Graham says about that place seventeen secure the 0:26:30.880 --> 0:26:33.520 border is going to be a bottom line for the president. 0:26:33.760 --> 0:26:36.240 He's got a twenty five billion dollar playing I don't 0:26:36.240 --> 0:26:38.600 think he expects to get twenty dollars all at once, 0:26:39.160 --> 0:26:41.879 but he does expect to get five villion, like the 0:26:41.920 --> 0:26:46.840 House authorized without a bunch of strains attached. They're not 0:26:46.880 --> 0:26:49.960 going to give him that money. Democrats are not. They'll 0:26:49.960 --> 0:26:53.160 do everything that they will go full Kavanaugh if they 0:26:53.200 --> 0:26:57.119 have to. They will throw out the decency rule book 0:26:57.640 --> 0:27:01.480 in a heartbeat. They don't care. They have to stop 0:27:01.520 --> 0:27:05.200 Trump from getting that funding for the wall, because this 0:27:05.280 --> 0:27:07.119 is why there are so many lies about this, This 0:27:07.240 --> 0:27:11.520 is why they report so recklessly on the topic. They 0:27:11.640 --> 0:27:16.399 know deep down that if a wall is built, and 0:27:16.600 --> 0:27:20.320 if that wall is beyond doubt proven to be effective, 0:27:20.359 --> 0:27:23.560 which will be the case, then it will be very 0:27:23.600 --> 0:27:27.200 hard for people to take liberals seriously on any of 0:27:27.240 --> 0:27:30.359 the other issues that they are running around screaming to 0:27:30.400 --> 0:27:36.199 be expert on, wise on knowledgeable about. These people are 0:27:36.640 --> 0:27:40.359 just essentially engaged in mirroring what the rest of the 0:27:40.400 --> 0:27:44.760 so called cool kids, smart set mob is saying. They're 0:27:44.800 --> 0:27:48.000 wrong on immigration and they're wrong on the wall. I 0:27:48.160 --> 0:27:52.320 predicted this on Sunday when I said that Muller is 0:27:52.440 --> 0:27:54.600 not going to be able to use manaphor because he 0:27:54.760 --> 0:27:58.560 is a proven liar, and you can't put a liar 0:27:58.640 --> 0:28:00.320 on the witness stand. Just like he's not going to 0:28:00.359 --> 0:28:02.359 be able to use coursie. He's not going to be 0:28:02.400 --> 0:28:06.000 able to use anybody who he got to plead guilty 0:28:06.480 --> 0:28:09.800 to perjury or lying to an FBI agent. You know 0:28:10.000 --> 0:28:13.520 the number of witnesses that he has that are credible 0:28:14.040 --> 0:28:18.320 are shrinking by the day. So I think the dirsh 0:28:18.359 --> 0:28:21.560 is right on this one. It's getting harder and harder 0:28:21.600 --> 0:28:24.600 for Muller to for anyone to really believe that Muller 0:28:24.680 --> 0:28:27.239 is going to have a real chance at a at 0:28:27.280 --> 0:28:31.840 a bombshell final act here, because he's just jamming everybody 0:28:31.920 --> 0:28:34.080 up with perjury charges. Well, if you're going to throw 0:28:34.160 --> 0:28:36.639 perjury charges at everyone all the time, who are you 0:28:36.720 --> 0:28:42.440 going to have left to make your case that Trump is, 0:28:42.560 --> 0:28:45.640 you know, the guy who colluded with Russia, that Trump 0:28:45.760 --> 0:28:49.840 is a bad guy, and that Trump is uh, you 0:28:49.920 --> 0:28:51.920 know whatever it is that I don't even know what 0:28:51.960 --> 0:28:53.880 they think is supposed to happen or is going to happen. 0:28:53.920 --> 0:28:56.920 I just think that they're they're pretty delusional about this. 0:28:58.200 --> 0:29:02.040 Here's the latest, I mean, Paul MANA four, according to Muller, 0:29:02.080 --> 0:29:05.480 has repeatedly lied to federal investigators in breach of his 0:29:05.560 --> 0:29:08.200 plea agreement. This is according to a Special Counsel's office 0:29:09.320 --> 0:29:13.040 and prosecutors saying that manaphorts crimes and lies about a 0:29:13.120 --> 0:29:15.880 variety of subject matters. Relieve them of all promises they 0:29:15.880 --> 0:29:18.440 made to him in the plea agreement under the plea, 0:29:18.800 --> 0:29:21.400 under the terms of the agreement, Manaphort cannot withdraw his 0:29:21.440 --> 0:29:25.120 guilty plea. Defense lawyers disagree that Maniford had violated the deal. 0:29:25.120 --> 0:29:27.000 In the same filing, according to The New York Times, 0:29:27.280 --> 0:29:30.640 they said Manaford had repeatedly met with the Special Counsel's 0:29:30.640 --> 0:29:36.280 office and believes he provided truthful information. So they've asked 0:29:36.280 --> 0:29:40.840 for a District of Columbia District Court judge to set 0:29:40.840 --> 0:29:44.280 a sentence in date. Who has been in solitary confinement 0:29:44.320 --> 0:29:48.640 in a detention center in Alexandria, Virginia. Why is Maniford 0:29:48.640 --> 0:29:53.560 in solitary? What is that all about? But you know, 0:29:53.600 --> 0:29:56.680 this is just shows you think about. And I know 0:29:56.800 --> 0:29:58.760 this is not somewhere Everyone's gonna want to go with me. 0:29:58.840 --> 0:30:01.760 But hold on a moment. Let's just try think about 0:30:01.760 --> 0:30:07.760 what would have been the result of approaching Hillary Clinton's 0:30:07.920 --> 0:30:13.720 little army of crooked liars people around her, people Whoma Abbydeen, 0:30:13.800 --> 0:30:15.720 you know, the Whoma Abode was married to, you know, 0:30:15.800 --> 0:30:20.760 the the per of Anthony Wiener. What would have been 0:30:20.800 --> 0:30:24.960 the result if in the email investigation they had taken 0:30:25.000 --> 0:30:28.880 the Muller approach, they had had a bunch of you know, 0:30:29.120 --> 0:30:35.040 right wing zealots who used the law in every way 0:30:35.080 --> 0:30:37.240 they could to destroy as many many people they could 0:30:37.240 --> 0:30:41.200 around Hillary. Does anyone really think that Hillary Clinton, she 0:30:41.360 --> 0:30:45.400 who is married to, did not have sexual relations with 0:30:45.440 --> 0:30:49.920 that woman. Does anyone really think that there wouldn't have 0:30:49.960 --> 0:30:55.600 been charges. It's just so galling this whole thing to 0:30:55.720 --> 0:31:00.880 see that the way that justice is done if you're 0:31:00.880 --> 0:31:04.240 a Democrat versus justice if you are a Republican. It's 0:31:04.320 --> 0:31:11.800 so fricking annoying because it's so obvious, it's so very 0:31:12.080 --> 0:31:16.760 very clear that there's a double standard in place. Now 0:31:16.760 --> 0:31:19.880 I'm hearing from some of my sources, some of my 0:31:19.920 --> 0:31:24.280 people here in the Swamp that they Clinton Foundation. There 0:31:24.360 --> 0:31:28.880 may be some Clinton Foundation bombshells that are dropped that, 0:31:29.480 --> 0:31:33.720 if my sourcing is correct, are going to raise the 0:31:33.800 --> 0:31:37.600 issue of not only where there no charge is brought 0:31:37.600 --> 0:31:40.680 against the Clinton Foundation, but there was really no desire 0:31:40.760 --> 0:31:44.000 by federal authorities to even look into the Clinton Foundation 0:31:44.520 --> 0:31:50.720 when there was smoking gun level evidence of malfeasance, all 0:31:50.720 --> 0:31:52.280 the stuff that you would think was going on to 0:31:52.360 --> 0:31:56.200 Clinton Foundation, people whose salaries were way too high, people 0:31:56.200 --> 0:31:59.479 who were abusing the funds of the organization for their 0:31:59.520 --> 0:32:02.480 own purpose. This is beep. I mean that was all happening. 0:32:02.520 --> 0:32:07.000 Of course, we're talking about the Clintons. There is no 0:32:08.240 --> 0:32:14.640 level of corruption that they will stoop to, or that 0:32:14.680 --> 0:32:17.400 they will not stoop to. Pardon me, and and the 0:32:17.440 --> 0:32:19.760 idea that they weren't going to be charged, it's just crazy. 0:32:19.880 --> 0:32:22.440 It's just crazy. It has been along. So we'll continue 0:32:22.440 --> 0:32:26.120 to follow the Muller probe, I know, the Jerome Corsi wiki, leaks, Assange, 0:32:26.200 --> 0:32:29.440 all that stuff. We got my man Sager and Jetty 0:32:29.520 --> 0:32:31.080 going to join us the next hour from a Daily 0:32:31.080 --> 0:32:34.880 caller Jelly Caller broke a big story on that today. Yeah, 0:32:35.000 --> 0:32:38.520 Roger Stone involved. I think Alex Jones went live for 0:32:38.560 --> 0:32:41.120 a while today, you know, with the whole whatever the 0:32:41.120 --> 0:32:44.080 heck Alex Jones talking about. So clearly there's there's some 0:32:44.160 --> 0:32:47.560 interest in in those stories too, and I will get 0:32:47.600 --> 0:32:49.880 to that just just before we get into the economy 0:32:50.320 --> 0:32:53.240 and the White House Press briefing. It happened today first time, 0:32:54.120 --> 0:32:55.920 first time in the month of November there's been a 0:32:55.920 --> 0:32:59.320 White House Press briefing. Yeahs Acosta was there. We'll get 0:32:59.320 --> 0:33:01.000 into it, and was there so he can give us 0:33:01.000 --> 0:33:03.360 some atmospherics on what happened today at the White House. 0:33:04.840 --> 0:33:07.040 I thought this was, you know, we've got the Jesse 0:33:07.160 --> 0:33:09.920 Kelly situation playing out, and it was great. Jesse on 0:33:10.440 --> 0:33:12.680 radio yesterday, we had him on Rising this morning. He 0:33:12.720 --> 0:33:16.400 was on Tucker Show last night. I'll be on Tucker 0:33:16.440 --> 0:33:18.520 Show tonight at eight o'clock. Those you want to see 0:33:18.520 --> 0:33:21.720 eight o'clock Eastern, so you can check that out. That'll 0:33:21.720 --> 0:33:25.240 be fun. That's right, Fox News, you know how to 0:33:25.280 --> 0:33:30.600 find it. But there's this this slow recognition that is 0:33:31.240 --> 0:33:35.320 I think finally beginning to you know, settle into people's minds. Here. 0:33:35.320 --> 0:33:39.200 There's this slow recognition that, oh, we really do have 0:33:39.240 --> 0:33:43.320 a problem here with the social media giants being overcome 0:33:44.040 --> 0:33:50.080 with progressive bias, and that's where you get stored. Not 0:33:50.120 --> 0:33:53.400 just the Jesse Kelly Twitter banishing that has happened, but 0:33:53.480 --> 0:33:58.600 also Google, which is the parent company for I'm sorry. Alphabet, 0:33:58.640 --> 0:34:02.560 which is the parent company for Google, introduced a feature 0:34:02.600 --> 0:34:06.640 for Gmail that automatically completes sentences for users as they 0:34:06.680 --> 0:34:10.880 type tap out I love you, and Gmail might propose 0:34:11.000 --> 0:34:13.480 you or or rather tap out I love a Gmail 0:34:13.560 --> 0:34:16.960 might add in you or it, but users are out 0:34:16.960 --> 0:34:20.120 of luck if the object of their affection is him 0:34:20.280 --> 0:34:24.480 or her. This is a Reuter's story. Today, Google's technology 0:34:24.520 --> 0:34:29.719 will not suggest gender based pronouns because the risk is 0:34:29.760 --> 0:34:34.200 too high that it's smart composed technology might predict someone's 0:34:34.200 --> 0:34:40.040 sex or gender identity incorrectly and offend users, product leaders 0:34:40.040 --> 0:34:47.160 revealed to Reuter's in interview, Gmail product manager Paul Lambert 0:34:47.200 --> 0:34:49.880 said a company research scientists discovered the problem in January 0:34:49.920 --> 0:34:52.080 when he typed I am meeting an investor next week, 0:34:52.920 --> 0:34:57.040 and smart Composed suggested a possible follow up this question, 0:34:57.080 --> 0:35:02.120 do you want to meet him instead of her? Yep? 0:35:04.239 --> 0:35:06.399 This is that's right. This is what these companies, these 0:35:06.560 --> 0:35:11.719 mega giants of Silicon Valley, are worried about the possibility 0:35:11.800 --> 0:35:20.000 that they may, through essentially AI, misgender somebody. Now, how 0:35:20.040 --> 0:35:23.239 can this be such a terrible the notion of mis gendering, 0:35:23.840 --> 0:35:27.440 Given the complexities that the left offers up for gender, 0:35:28.040 --> 0:35:30.520 shouldn't they then be willing to admit that, you know, 0:35:30.560 --> 0:35:33.640 it's really tough to get somebody's gender right. In fact, 0:35:33.719 --> 0:35:36.120 I would offer you that mis gendering shouldn't be offensive 0:35:36.160 --> 0:35:39.520 at all anymore to the left, because we don't know 0:35:39.560 --> 0:35:42.600 what anyone's gender is by looking at them. You used 0:35:42.600 --> 0:35:47.400 to think, oh, male female, That's something that as a 0:35:47.560 --> 0:35:50.600 rational functioning adult, I can probably tell just by looking 0:35:50.600 --> 0:35:54.600 at somebody, right, But no, no, not anymore. Somebody could 0:35:54.640 --> 0:35:57.799 be somewhere on the gender spectrum and you have no idea. 0:35:57.920 --> 0:36:03.920 So that being the case, until we can eradicate all pronouns, 0:36:03.960 --> 0:36:05.960 which I know there are some radicals on the left. Dude, 0:36:06.000 --> 0:36:08.759 that's what they want to do. Shouldn't there be a 0:36:08.840 --> 0:36:12.359 much greater acceptance of mis gendering. I mean, some of 0:36:12.400 --> 0:36:16.160 you might think to yourself, oh, well, you know Bob 0:36:16.200 --> 0:36:18.759 and accounting. You know, you know he's a he. You 0:36:18.800 --> 0:36:21.720 don't know, you don't know Bob's truth. You know, maybe 0:36:21.760 --> 0:36:24.040 Bob is hiding something from you all this time, so 0:36:24.120 --> 0:36:27.840 you can't say, hey, man, how you doing. And instead 0:36:27.880 --> 0:36:29.719 of just getting everybody in trouble for this, maybe we 0:36:29.719 --> 0:36:31.840 should just accept that we have no idea what anybody's 0:36:31.880 --> 0:36:34.239 gender is. Now. I know this is stupid, obviously, but 0:36:34.320 --> 0:36:36.560 the point I'm making here is this whole thing is dumb. 0:36:37.600 --> 0:36:39.520 But the Left is that they can't crawl out of 0:36:39.520 --> 0:36:41.839 this insanity. They've created it, and now they're stuck with it, 0:36:42.000 --> 0:36:46.640 including Google.

Oh there's great disappointment there. There's disappointment that 0:37:47.640 --> 0:37:51.320 it seems like GM would rather build its selectric cars 0:37:51.320 --> 0:37:56.839 in China rather than in the United States. We are 0:37:56.880 --> 0:38:01.000 going to be looking at certain subsidies regard electric cars 0:38:01.080 --> 0:38:05.439 and others, whether they should apply or not. I can't 0:38:05.440 --> 0:38:08.280 say anything final about that, but we're looking into it again. 0:38:08.320 --> 0:38:14.160 That so, GM is cutting a lot of jobs, all right. 0:38:14.160 --> 0:38:20.839 There's there's been some bad news for General Motors, and 0:38:21.080 --> 0:38:23.399 that is that they're going to cut fourteen thousand, eight 0:38:23.480 --> 0:38:26.880 hundred jobs in the US and Canada, and they're going 0:38:26.920 --> 0:38:31.080 to stop production at a few North American factories. All right. 0:38:31.080 --> 0:38:35.920 So this is the first time since the Obama era 0:38:36.640 --> 0:38:39.880 restructuring of General Motors that they've had this kind of 0:38:40.920 --> 0:38:43.719 this kind of moment of recognition, moment of reality that 0:38:43.880 --> 0:38:46.440 is that has hit them. This is going to reduce 0:38:46.480 --> 0:38:49.080 the cost that GM currently has by four point five 0:38:49.360 --> 0:38:52.600 billion dollars they say, by twenty twenty, which will free 0:38:52.680 --> 0:38:57.560 up money you invest in electric and self driving vehicles. Now, 0:38:57.560 --> 0:38:59.960 of course, the Autoworkers Union has said this is calida 0:39:00.120 --> 0:39:02.359 and it's terrible, and people are all upset about it. 0:39:03.320 --> 0:39:05.319 There's a lot going on here, let me start with 0:39:05.360 --> 0:39:07.879 a few things. Let's go back and share a little 0:39:07.920 --> 0:39:14.800 history here. Okay, the Obama administration, for purely political reasons, 0:39:16.600 --> 0:39:21.840 didn't allow General Motors to go bankrupt. The Obama administration realized, 0:39:21.880 --> 0:39:23.640 you know, the people that say, oh, Trump, he's so 0:39:23.760 --> 0:39:26.840 involved in different companies and picking winners and losers, and 0:39:27.120 --> 0:39:30.160 he's an authoritarian on economics and all this. I don't 0:39:30.200 --> 0:39:32.000 like everything that Trump does when it comes to his 0:39:32.080 --> 0:39:34.759 rhetoric on different private companies, and I don't know, I 0:39:34.760 --> 0:39:36.800 don't agree with all those different things that he says. 0:39:37.560 --> 0:39:45.520 That said. Obama took and his administration took really severe 0:39:46.040 --> 0:39:49.880 action in order to save General Motors. And keep in mind, 0:39:50.440 --> 0:39:54.480 all it really did was use the taxpayers to bail 0:39:54.560 --> 0:39:58.960 out General Motors. And that then because the government was involved, 0:39:59.080 --> 0:40:02.160 because the government eventually took General Motors into receivership. I mean, 0:40:02.160 --> 0:40:05.279 the government was what was for a while, you know, 0:40:05.320 --> 0:40:09.120 the part owner of General Motors. What that meant was 0:40:09.200 --> 0:40:13.799 that they could do things like, for example, decide that 0:40:13.840 --> 0:40:19.040 they're going to break contract with bond holders for General Motors, 0:40:19.200 --> 0:40:21.520 who are supposed to be taken care of first under 0:40:21.600 --> 0:40:25.080 contract under the law as part of a big giveaway 0:40:25.200 --> 0:40:29.440 to the United Auto Workers Union. That's right, autoworkers unions, unions, 0:40:29.560 --> 0:40:35.200 Democrat power base. They were given a lot of special 0:40:35.239 --> 0:40:40.040 favors and attention by the Obama administration, when in reality, 0:40:40.080 --> 0:40:43.640 what should have happened here is that you know, General 0:40:43.640 --> 0:40:47.080 Motors for Chrysler, all of them, all of them should 0:40:47.080 --> 0:40:50.920 have been allowed to go bankrupt because all that you 0:40:51.040 --> 0:40:56.120 had with the bailout was the continuation of an unhealthy 0:40:56.160 --> 0:41:01.680 corporate culture, unsustainable cost structure or in place because of 0:41:01.920 --> 0:41:07.800 UAW that's right, union demands. And now we've they finally 0:41:07.880 --> 0:41:10.319 run out of room to maneuver. I mean, now they 0:41:10.360 --> 0:41:12.040 have to go to this point where they're saying they're 0:41:12.040 --> 0:41:15.239 gonna lay off fifteen thousand people, dramatically cut costs and 0:41:15.239 --> 0:41:19.040 and take this whole pardon the expression, great leap forward 0:41:19.360 --> 0:41:23.080 on electric cars and on you know, on you know, 0:41:23.239 --> 0:41:25.879 self driving cars, the cars of the future, if you will. 0:41:26.360 --> 0:41:27.799 Who knows if they're going to be good at that 0:41:27.840 --> 0:41:31.640 stuff like that. That's not that's not been there their 0:41:31.760 --> 0:41:36.399 strong suit in the past, that's for sure. But what's 0:41:36.440 --> 0:41:40.400 happened here is that they you know, they were able 0:41:40.440 --> 0:41:45.359 to continue on as they you know, continue on with 0:41:45.400 --> 0:41:47.840 a lot of problems, a lot of structural problems in place, 0:41:48.680 --> 0:41:52.319 because there's just a you know, General Motors. It's like 0:41:52.400 --> 0:41:57.600 General Electric. General Electric had a a diseased corporate culture 0:41:57.920 --> 0:42:01.759 that allowed it to become essentially largely a financial institution, 0:42:01.880 --> 0:42:04.239 not one that just makes light bulbs and things and 0:42:04.400 --> 0:42:07.680 planes and engines and you know whatever, or engines for planes, 0:42:09.520 --> 0:42:11.719 but also become a major lender, and it become a 0:42:11.800 --> 0:42:15.319 financial when you know, ge financial was a huge part 0:42:15.320 --> 0:42:19.760 of it, of its profit for a number of years. 0:42:20.480 --> 0:42:22.960 And you know, people would say, oh, General Motors a 0:42:23.160 --> 0:42:26.680 General Electric rather this great American company, and you know, 0:42:26.880 --> 0:42:31.360 it hasn't made the necessary hasn't made the necessary changes 0:42:31.360 --> 0:42:34.200 to its corporate cultures. That company is in terrible shape. Right. 0:42:34.440 --> 0:42:36.840 General Motors had problems too, but the problem is really 0:42:37.480 --> 0:42:41.680 that one its strategy has been wrong. The cars that 0:42:41.719 --> 0:42:44.040 it built. People just don't want cars made by General 0:42:44.040 --> 0:42:47.480 Motors as much as they want other cars. And some 0:42:47.560 --> 0:42:51.400 of these autoworker autoworker contracts that they have because of 0:42:51.440 --> 0:42:55.480 the unions are just the costs are too high. You know, 0:42:55.520 --> 0:42:57.759 what General Motors did, and this is what the administration 0:42:57.880 --> 0:43:00.680 is pointing out with with saying I'm maybe the subsidies 0:43:00.680 --> 0:43:05.480 will change. They decided to set up shop in China. 0:43:06.200 --> 0:43:08.400 They build General Motors cars in China. I know you 0:43:08.400 --> 0:43:11.080 can say to me, oh, buck, but you know they 0:43:11.360 --> 0:43:17.280 sell those cars into the Chinese market. Yeah, but point 0:43:17.440 --> 0:43:20.239 is they could be making them here and selling them 0:43:20.280 --> 0:43:22.720 in the US market. They can't even sell US cars 0:43:22.719 --> 0:43:25.960 in the US market and make a profit on them. 0:43:26.400 --> 0:43:30.200 And they're having tremendous issues. You know, these other major 0:43:30.800 --> 0:43:35.120 you know, Japanese and Korean automakers, they've set up shop 0:43:35.160 --> 0:43:38.280 here in America. They're selling their cars in our markets. 0:43:39.080 --> 0:43:42.440 They're selling their cars and they're made here. But General 0:43:42.440 --> 0:43:46.759 Motors are set up overseas because yes, it wanted to 0:43:46.760 --> 0:43:49.920 get access into the overseas market. But it's also a 0:43:50.000 --> 0:43:53.359 question of they realize that the cost structure for them 0:43:53.480 --> 0:43:56.799 is better overseas. So you know this is And by 0:43:56.800 --> 0:43:58.840 the way, the Vault is one of the ugliest cars. 0:43:58.880 --> 0:44:01.160 I'm sorry, if you're a driver, don't don't get mad 0:44:01.160 --> 0:44:02.520 at me, but I think it's one of the ugliest 0:44:02.560 --> 0:44:06.560 cars I've ever seen in my entire life. And so, 0:44:07.000 --> 0:44:08.680 you know, I think there's also just been some design 0:44:08.760 --> 0:44:12.319 flaws and design issues here. But you know, people have 0:44:12.400 --> 0:44:15.800 this nostalgia for the you know, the great American car company, 0:44:15.960 --> 0:44:23.080 and GM has needed a really serious come to Jesus 0:44:23.120 --> 0:44:25.040 moment for a long time, and I think it's it's 0:44:25.160 --> 0:44:28.000 maybe having it now and might not be enough to 0:44:28.080 --> 0:44:30.720 really turn all of this around. But then there's there's 0:44:30.760 --> 0:44:32.439 not just general but that was the big the big 0:44:32.440 --> 0:44:34.680 news item from the week. Then you've got the overall economy. 0:44:34.680 --> 0:44:37.760 You've got China. I mean, could Low, very charming fellow. 0:44:37.800 --> 0:44:39.840 This Larry could Low is the head of the Council 0:44:39.840 --> 0:44:43.160 of Economic Advisors UM. He came out today as part 0:44:43.200 --> 0:44:45.680 of the White House Press conference, talked about the economy, 0:44:45.680 --> 0:44:48.360 talked about China. Let's get to some of that play thirteen. 0:44:48.840 --> 0:44:51.280 The US is coming to the Semit in very good shape. 0:44:51.280 --> 0:44:54.640 Our economy is quite strong. It's scrong at three percent 0:44:54.760 --> 0:44:58.520 over the past year. Second quarter was four point two, 0:44:58.560 --> 0:45:02.040 third quarter was three point five, perhaps to be revised upwards. 0:45:02.480 --> 0:45:07.080 A very strong holiday season, so called Black Friday, very strong. 0:45:07.960 --> 0:45:13.360 We've had tremendous investments, business investments, energy investments, will prices 0:45:13.360 --> 0:45:16.640 and gasoline prices coming down. That helps consumers of course, 0:45:16.920 --> 0:45:21.719 we're in very good shape. China not so good. I'm 0:45:21.760 --> 0:45:24.960 not here to critique our second guest, the Chinese economy, 0:45:25.360 --> 0:45:28.840 but most observers believe China to be in a slump, 0:45:29.760 --> 0:45:32.360 whereas the United States is in a very strong, solid 0:45:32.400 --> 0:45:39.440 position going into this summit. Yep, the US economy, based 0:45:39.480 --> 0:45:42.200 on the numbers that we use to try to gauge 0:45:42.200 --> 0:45:44.960 these things, is still very very healthy, still doing very well. Yeah, 0:45:44.960 --> 0:45:47.839 there's been a stock market correction, trust me, I've it's 0:45:47.840 --> 0:45:51.480 been a rough two months for the buckster over here. Man, 0:45:51.680 --> 0:45:54.520 some of my portfolio has been getting. The good news 0:45:54.600 --> 0:45:57.440 is it's very little money. I just I'm just more 0:45:57.480 --> 0:45:59.880 interested in investing that I am actually trying to make 0:46:00.040 --> 0:46:04.799 any real money because certainly not flying around on the 0:46:04.800 --> 0:46:06.800 Freedom Hut Express in the sky. I don't have a 0:46:06.840 --> 0:46:09.920 G five in my future. But you know, the market 0:46:09.960 --> 0:46:11.640 has had a bit of a correction. But the market 0:46:11.800 --> 0:46:14.480 is not everything. It's just an It's an indicator among 0:46:14.520 --> 0:46:17.640 many others. I think what Kudlow is saying is, look, 0:46:17.920 --> 0:46:20.240 the uscon He's still gonna by the way, China's got issues. 0:46:20.520 --> 0:46:22.840 He's bringing this up because there's gonna be at the 0:46:22.880 --> 0:46:26.839 g twenty summit sit down with Trump and h and 0:46:27.040 --> 0:46:30.960 She and Hijinping, Chinese premiere, and they're gonna look at 0:46:30.960 --> 0:46:33.919 this issue once again of okay, where are we on 0:46:34.560 --> 0:46:38.359 trade policy? Where are we on the whole tariff well, 0:46:38.400 --> 0:46:40.560 trade war people are calling it, but the tariff situation 0:46:41.200 --> 0:46:43.960 because so far, yeah, there's been some downside to it. 0:46:44.000 --> 0:46:46.040 I was talking to you about GM just a moment ago. 0:46:46.760 --> 0:46:52.600 GM for all the United Auto workers running up the 0:46:52.880 --> 0:46:54.920 you know, running up the tab too high and the 0:46:54.960 --> 0:46:57.960 fact that the cars that they're making just aren't very good. 0:47:00.080 --> 0:47:02.600 GM also says that they've got a billion dollars of 0:47:02.719 --> 0:47:05.080 additional costs because a steel price is because of the 0:47:05.120 --> 0:47:08.160 steel tariffs, and that's real. You know, you've got to 0:47:08.160 --> 0:47:10.200 factor that into all this. People want to say it's 0:47:11.280 --> 0:47:14.000 bigger than it is because it's once again an opportunity 0:47:14.040 --> 0:47:17.360 to bash Trump. But could let's say, look, there's gonna 0:47:17.520 --> 0:47:19.520 this is part of the process. There's gonna be some 0:47:19.560 --> 0:47:21.960 pain here to get to a better place. And Trump 0:47:22.040 --> 0:47:24.640 is hoping we can all include in China get to 0:47:24.719 --> 0:47:28.520 that better place. Play fourteen. President said there's a good 0:47:28.520 --> 0:47:33.319 possibility that we can make a deal, and he is 0:47:33.360 --> 0:47:36.560 open to it. But on the other hand, if these 0:47:36.640 --> 0:47:39.239 conditions I mentioned a few moments ago are not met, 0:47:39.400 --> 0:47:46.920 not dealt with. No President has said, look, he's perfectly 0:47:46.960 --> 0:47:53.160 happy to stand on his tariff policies, which ten percent 0:47:53.920 --> 0:47:57.320 last two hundred billion dollars scheduled to go to twenty 0:47:57.320 --> 0:47:59.960 five percent. That's not a certainty, but that's the schedule. 0:48:00.400 --> 0:48:03.800 And he has said as recently as yesterday the day before, 0:48:04.880 --> 0:48:08.120 if need be, if things don't work out in this 0:48:08.600 --> 0:48:13.360 US China summit meeting, he will invoke another two hundred 0:48:13.360 --> 0:48:18.040 and sixty seven some hi billion dollars in tariffs. Trump's 0:48:18.080 --> 0:48:21.640 doubling down on this, not gonna change, not going to 0:48:21.719 --> 0:48:28.360 back off one bit. Trump is very serious about seeing 0:48:28.360 --> 0:48:30.440 this thing through with China. I hope he's right. If 0:48:30.440 --> 0:48:33.080 he's wrong, we're gonna talk about it here, but it's 0:48:33.080 --> 0:48:35.880 too early to know. One thing's for sure. Though Trump's 0:48:35.920 --> 0:48:37.560 not messing around. This is the one issue where I 0:48:37.600 --> 0:48:40.560 don't think he's gonna blink no matter how much pressure 0:48:40.600 --> 0:48:42.520 people try to put on it. You're gonna be doing 0:48:42.520 --> 0:48:45.319 a lot of online shopping over the holidays, and you're 0:48:45.360 --> 0:48:47.759 going to be exchanging all kinds of sensitive information on 0:48:47.840 --> 0:48:51.680 your computer, on your various devices.

First, 0:49:47.880 --> 0:49:50.799 left to our own devices, the Senate and House could 0:49:50.800 --> 0:49:55.880 come to an agreement. Second, the Democrat the Republicans are 0:49:55.920 --> 0:49:58.680 in control of the presidency, the House, and the Senate. 0:49:58.800 --> 0:50:02.239 A shutdown is on their back stick to the one 0:50:02.280 --> 0:50:06.080 point six billion. We're trying to get the President the 0:50:06.120 --> 0:50:08.319 money he would like for the wall. That's part of 0:50:08.320 --> 0:50:12.839 the year and funding discussion, which is ongoing. That's one 0:50:12.880 --> 0:50:14.520 of the many things we've got to wrap up here 0:50:14.600 --> 0:50:18.279 at the end of the year. I don't think there's 0:50:18.280 --> 0:50:21.759 going to be a government shutdown, and I say that 0:50:21.840 --> 0:50:26.239 to you with a lot of frustration, because I kind 0:50:26.239 --> 0:50:29.520 of wish there would be a government shutdown. I wish 0:50:29.560 --> 0:50:33.520 that the Republican Party was full of the courage of 0:50:33.560 --> 0:50:38.000 its convictions here. I wish that there was a willingness 0:50:38.040 --> 0:50:40.879 to go to the mat on this issue, because it's 0:50:40.920 --> 0:50:42.480 not going to be not going to be a good 0:50:42.480 --> 0:50:45.200 thing for Trump to run for reelection in twenty twenty 0:50:45.280 --> 0:50:49.960 without having at least procure the funding for a wall. 0:50:50.320 --> 0:50:54.319 And there's even more pressing issue of look at what 0:50:54.480 --> 0:50:58.960 is going on at our border. One of the great 0:50:59.080 --> 0:51:03.080 lies of the Democrat left is that a wall wouldn't 0:51:03.080 --> 0:51:06.440 do anything. Nobody wants a wall. A wall is irrelevant, 0:51:06.440 --> 0:51:09.240 A wall won't help well. You talk to border patrol, 0:51:09.320 --> 0:51:11.040 you talk to people that are actually on the front 0:51:11.080 --> 0:51:15.319 lines of trying to defend our sovereign borders. They'll tell you, 0:51:15.360 --> 0:51:18.360 oh no, as they've told me, a border would in 0:51:18.440 --> 0:51:21.680 fact help. A border is a good idea, is something 0:51:21.719 --> 0:51:26.520 that should be pursued, and it should have been pursued 0:51:26.560 --> 0:51:31.680 earlier than this. It should have been something that the 0:51:31.719 --> 0:51:37.240 Trump administration and the Republicans were willing a long time ago, 0:51:38.440 --> 0:51:41.480 a long time ago, to fight for. So you know, 0:51:41.920 --> 0:51:43.920 this is why also I want to say a long 0:51:43.960 --> 0:51:45.759 time ago, I mean the last time that they had 0:51:45.760 --> 0:51:48.880 an opportunity, for example, the last time that there was 0:51:49.120 --> 0:51:54.319 an opportunity for them to go to the go to 0:51:54.360 --> 0:51:56.759 the mat on this and have that shutdown fight. And 0:51:56.840 --> 0:51:58.840 you know, I would just also point out that it 0:51:59.000 --> 0:52:02.600 is in fact the law. It is the law to 0:52:02.760 --> 0:52:08.320 build a fence. There is something called the Secure Fence Act. 0:52:08.360 --> 0:52:11.560 How many people remember this? How many people remember that 0:52:11.880 --> 0:52:14.640 there was the Secure of Fence Act And this was 0:52:15.640 --> 0:52:20.360 passed many years ago. And we're told now that this 0:52:20.520 --> 0:52:26.600 is crazy, that this is somehow completely out of left field. 0:52:27.680 --> 0:52:31.400 But the reality is that you've already had people public 0:52:31.520 --> 0:52:34.799 Law one or nine three sixty seven, the Secure Offence Act. 0:52:34.840 --> 0:52:38.560 It was passed with bi parties and majorities in two 0:52:38.600 --> 0:52:41.400 thousand and six, received two hundred and eighty three votes 0:52:41.400 --> 0:52:44.120 in the House and eighty in the Senate, and it 0:52:44.160 --> 0:52:47.000 required the federal government, according to the Washington Examiner here 0:52:47.040 --> 0:52:51.320 to build reinforced fencing at least two layers deep along 0:52:51.360 --> 0:52:55.560 about seven hundred miles of the border. Specified the areas 0:52:55.600 --> 0:52:58.520 in California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas where fencing would 0:52:58.520 --> 0:53:02.160 be installed. You know, that's something you have to remember. 0:53:02.840 --> 0:53:08.719 Any barrier system isn't about preventing all entry. Right, you 0:53:08.760 --> 0:53:12.080 don't have a fence around your house, for example, because 0:53:12.120 --> 0:53:14.400 you think that no one can climb over the fence. 0:53:14.440 --> 0:53:16.600 But you may have a fence around your house so 0:53:16.680 --> 0:53:21.439 that one people know not to cross. Two they can't 0:53:21.480 --> 0:53:24.000 just drive their vehicle right up to your house. Right, 0:53:24.040 --> 0:53:26.439 it does give you some gre protection. Three they can't 0:53:26.480 --> 0:53:28.520 just walk, They have to actually climb, and depending on 0:53:28.600 --> 0:53:32.600 how high the fence is, it makes it harder for them. 0:53:33.320 --> 0:53:36.760 And that's what border security needs to be about. Lessening. 0:53:36.920 --> 0:53:40.759 We have two thousand apart from the migrant caravan, we 0:53:40.840 --> 0:53:44.840 have two thousand arrests happening every day at the border 0:53:45.040 --> 0:53:48.120 of illegal crossings. Do the math. Two thousand, three hundred 0:53:48.120 --> 0:53:51.200 and fifty six days a year. It's a lot of 0:53:51.320 --> 0:53:54.200 Oh but then but it's eleven million, buck, it's eleven million. 0:53:55.040 --> 0:53:59.120 Sure it is because you have half a million people 0:53:59.360 --> 0:54:02.040 leaving the West to go back to Mexico every year. 0:54:02.600 --> 0:54:08.600 Bull crap, no way, all right, that's just this is 0:54:08.600 --> 0:54:13.520 the word we're lied to about this issue constantly, constantly, 0:54:14.400 --> 0:54:16.879 Just like I was saying all the big lies we 0:54:17.040 --> 0:54:20.239 have been told about the caravan in the first place, right, 0:54:20.880 --> 0:54:23.560 they lie to us about the wall specifically, they say 0:54:23.560 --> 0:54:28.040 a wall will do nothing, except we see that a 0:54:28.080 --> 0:54:30.480 wall is doing lots of stuff. A wall is, in fact, 0:54:30.600 --> 0:54:33.640 very useful. And that just brings me back to oh, 0:54:33.680 --> 0:54:36.120 and it wasn't. It wasn't racist and terrible in two 0:54:36.120 --> 0:54:40.400 thousand and six, and it wasn't for the whole border. 0:54:40.440 --> 0:54:42.880 Keep in mind, if they're just certain areas where there's 0:54:42.920 --> 0:54:46.760 a greater likelihood of a crossing, if there's just certain 0:54:46.800 --> 0:54:49.080 areas seven one hundred miles of fence, it would have 0:54:49.080 --> 0:54:51.319 made it harder. So maybe that two thousand a day 0:54:52.120 --> 0:54:55.399 drops down, Maybe that two thousand a day. And remember 0:54:55.400 --> 0:54:57.000 there's a lot of people that aren't even being caught. 0:54:57.640 --> 0:54:59.680 It's more like, you know, half that number are caught 0:54:59.719 --> 0:55:02.440 trying to cross, because a lot fewer people overall are 0:55:02.520 --> 0:55:07.799 crossing illegally into the country. But no one, no one 0:55:07.840 --> 0:55:11.600 ever talks about this, No one ever brings up that 0:55:11.960 --> 0:55:14.239 they just don't enforce the law and immigration. They don't 0:55:14.320 --> 0:55:17.920 enforce the law and building offense, building a wall, it's 0:55:17.920 --> 0:55:20.799 already there. They just don't do it. They don't fund it. 0:55:22.239 --> 0:55:24.919 You know, Gosh, Darreth. They need to have a fight 0:55:25.000 --> 0:55:28.759 over this issue. Let's really have it out. Force the 0:55:28.800 --> 0:55:32.960 Democrats to show the American people that they are a 0:55:33.000 --> 0:55:35.880 party that is in favor of illegal immigration. They're in 0:55:35.880 --> 0:55:38.960 favor of the boarders. But look, the shutdown, if it's 0:55:38.960 --> 0:55:41.879 gonna happen, it'll be on December seventh. And I think 0:55:41.880 --> 0:55:44.279 there's not going to be a shutdown. I think that 0:55:44.360 --> 0:55:50.560 Republicans will once again once again take the path of 0:55:50.920 --> 0:55:54.880 least resistance on this one. And the path of least resistance, 0:55:54.920 --> 0:55:57.759 as we all know, is gonna be. Oh, let's come 0:55:57.840 --> 0:56:00.359 up with a you know, some kind of attempt ary 0:56:00.440 --> 0:56:05.160 funding measure, a fancy legislative way to kick the can 0:56:05.200 --> 0:56:08.160 down the road, not take a hard vote, not deal 0:56:08.200 --> 0:56:12.360 with any of this difficult stuff, and then when the 0:56:12.400 --> 0:56:15.720 next election comes up, say, you know, build the dang fence. 0:56:15.800 --> 0:56:17.600 You know everyone's gonna all of a sudden be pushing 0:56:17.640 --> 0:56:21.680 for pushing for a wall to be built, and that's 0:56:21.760 --> 0:56:25.120 just not it's just not gonna happen. Then it's not 0:56:25.120 --> 0:56:29.120 gonna happen an election time. So we'll see. I think 0:56:29.120 --> 0:56:32.839 the shutdown talk is probably much ado about nothing. It 0:56:33.080 --> 0:56:38.239 usually is, but in this context, I'm hoping that I 0:56:38.280 --> 0:56:40.719 am wrong, because we should shut the government down over this. 0:56:40.760 --> 0:56:43.640 Trump must get funding for the wall. Now is the 0:56:43.719 --> 0:56:47.480 time eighteen months ago and twenty five or thirty million 0:56:47.480 --> 0:56:50.960 dollars ago. If you had said we came up with 0:56:51.719 --> 0:56:54.600 Carter Page as a possible suspect, he hasn't been indicted, 0:56:54.680 --> 0:56:58.040 or mister Papadopoulos, or now we're going after Jerome Corsi 0:56:58.560 --> 0:57:01.560 and Roger Stone because they may have been playing fast 0:57:01.600 --> 0:57:04.080 at moose with the truth. That's like saying PG PJ. 0:57:04.239 --> 0:57:07.880 Barnum exaggerated. If that's what this whole thing was about, 0:57:07.920 --> 0:57:10.200 it I could call it a circus, but it's a 0:57:10.239 --> 0:57:13.440 tragic circus. And what you get the impression, Tucker, is 0:57:13.440 --> 0:57:16.520 that what you cannot get in quality indictments you're trying 0:57:16.560 --> 0:57:20.520 to justify with a quantity of indictments. They're indicting everybody, 0:57:20.560 --> 0:57:25.560 and indicting everybody that was a victor. David Hanson talking 0:57:25.600 --> 0:57:28.800 about where the Muller probe is right now, I keep 0:57:28.840 --> 0:57:30.960 having people that will rattle off, Oh, but there are 0:57:30.960 --> 0:57:33.600 twenty Russians and Menaphort and all these and I said, yeah, 0:57:33.600 --> 0:57:35.760 none of this has anything to do with the Trump campaign, 0:57:36.080 --> 0:57:38.920 which is the only reason there's a special counsel. But 0:57:39.120 --> 0:57:48.320 what is this whole coursie info wars Roger Stone debacle? 0:57:48.520 --> 0:57:51.080 What is going on here? We've got Sagar and Jetty 0:57:51.160 --> 0:57:54.360 with us. He is the White House reporter for the 0:57:54.440 --> 0:57:57.200 Daily Caller. Daily Caller broke big story on this today. 0:57:57.440 --> 0:58:00.600 Saga agreed to have you back. Hey, thanks for having 0:58:00.640 --> 0:58:03.200 me a book. Can you just walk us through here? 0:58:03.520 --> 0:58:06.440 What what the heck is going on? Jerome Corsi is 0:58:06.480 --> 0:58:10.080 now involved in this whole Muller saga. Roger Stone's name 0:58:10.160 --> 0:58:14.400 is popped up again. What is happening here? Sure thing? 0:58:14.520 --> 0:58:20.240 So Corsi and Stone go back along ways. Corsi is 0:58:20.280 --> 0:58:24.080 you know, best known for pushing Birtherism in the you know, 0:58:24.120 --> 0:58:26.960 in the twenty tens. He was also behind some of 0:58:26.960 --> 0:58:30.440 the swift boat stuff during the Bush campaign. But anyways, 0:58:30.800 --> 0:58:36.080 basically what Mullover is focusing on is communications between Roger 0:58:36.120 --> 0:58:41.480 Stone and Jerome Corsi with Wiki leaks, and so what 0:58:41.600 --> 0:58:45.600 Corsi is now being current is being targeted by Muller 0:58:45.720 --> 0:58:51.080 for is allegedly lying about an effort for a by 0:58:51.160 --> 0:58:54.480 Stone to get him to reach out to a sage 0:58:54.840 --> 0:58:58.840 about the forthcoming emails, and some of his other communications 0:58:59.160 --> 0:59:03.200 with a concern ovative journalist in Britain who is allegedly 0:59:03.320 --> 0:59:06.439 in contact with Wiki leaks. And so it's it's very 0:59:07.280 --> 0:59:11.400 very complicated weird web here. And you also have this 0:59:11.520 --> 0:59:15.640 story today of from The Guardian, a British a British 0:59:15.760 --> 0:59:19.959 left wing newspaper that says that Julian Assange met with 0:59:21.040 --> 0:59:26.240 Manaphort before what was it in twenty sixteen, before the 0:59:26.320 --> 0:59:29.040 emails came out. Some people are having a hard time 0:59:29.040 --> 0:59:32.600 with us. What's your take on it? Yeah, I'm a 0:59:32.680 --> 0:59:35.840 very suspect of this story because for I noticed first 0:59:35.840 --> 0:59:39.160 of all that the dateline was in Quito, which is 0:59:39.160 --> 0:59:42.480 a capital of Ecuador, which suggests that, you know, maybe 0:59:42.480 --> 0:59:46.680 this information is coming out of an Ecuadorian diplomatic source, 0:59:47.040 --> 0:59:50.400 but there's been no confirmation on it. Both WikiLeaks and 0:59:50.440 --> 0:59:54.720 Manafort have issued a flat denial. Now that doesn't mean 0:59:54.760 --> 0:59:57.280 that this story is not true, but that you know, 0:59:57.360 --> 1:00:01.680 that's that is definitely something to be read into. And 1:00:01.760 --> 1:00:04.080 I think the most interesting thing is that they actually 1:00:04.240 --> 1:00:07.600 edited some of the language in the story after it 1:00:07.640 --> 1:00:11.840 came out where they said that an apparent meeting. They 1:00:11.920 --> 1:00:16.280 basically hedged the claims that the meeting had occurred within 1:00:16.360 --> 1:00:19.960 the story after it had come out, and everybody went 1:00:20.080 --> 1:00:23.320 bananas over it. So I am waiting for a bit 1:00:23.360 --> 1:00:26.400 more independent confirmation. I've been trying to confirm him myself, 1:00:26.760 --> 1:00:29.040 but you know, both Lely, I think it's very important 1:00:29.040 --> 1:00:31.800 to know that both Wiki Leaks and Manaphort saying that 1:00:31.840 --> 1:00:34.680 it is a completely flat out false story, and it 1:00:34.680 --> 1:00:38.480 should be pretty easy for any US government authority to know, 1:00:38.920 --> 1:00:42.680 you know, based on flight manifests or what or surveillance records, 1:00:42.720 --> 1:00:45.760 what have you on, whether he was in the Ecuadorian 1:00:45.800 --> 1:00:49.200 embassy or not. Yeah, I absolutely do not believe it 1:00:49.320 --> 1:00:53.320 is possible in any way that the US government the 1:00:53.400 --> 1:00:58.320 British government would not know about a meeting between Manaphort 1:00:58.400 --> 1:01:01.960 and Julian Assange, who is living in a tiny room. 1:01:02.000 --> 1:01:05.880 I mean I actually interviewed Assange I don't know two 1:01:05.960 --> 1:01:09.200 years ago now from the Ecuadorian embassy, meaning that I 1:01:09.280 --> 1:01:12.480 connected with him online and we did an interview for 1:01:12.520 --> 1:01:15.360 a podcast and I was like, what's it like over there, dude. 1:01:15.360 --> 1:01:17.640 He's like, there's not a lot to do here, not 1:01:17.720 --> 1:01:19.919 much of a party going on. I mean, tar about 1:01:19.960 --> 1:01:22.920 living under under a microscope. The moment he steps out 1:01:22.920 --> 1:01:25.120 of that embassy, they're going to arrest him. Everyone knows that. 1:01:25.440 --> 1:01:28.960 So he's been living in this diplomatic community space for 1:01:29.000 --> 1:01:31.880 a while and and essentially or not to community people, 1:01:31.920 --> 1:01:35.480 the immunity of the building. And you know, people are 1:01:35.520 --> 1:01:38.840 now saying, oh, at just the right time, we get 1:01:38.880 --> 1:01:41.160 this story that breaks that there might have been this meeting, 1:01:41.200 --> 1:01:43.680 and we all know this about right, this is how 1:01:43.760 --> 1:01:47.440 the so the the alleged collusion could have happened. You 1:01:47.480 --> 1:01:51.480 have Manafort saying to Asange, hey, get these Hillary emails 1:01:51.720 --> 1:01:54.120 or get there weren't even Hillary's emails though, you know, Sager, 1:01:54.200 --> 1:01:55.640 one of the problems I have with this, it's not 1:01:55.720 --> 1:01:58.320 even a good evil plan, right, It's not even a 1:01:58.320 --> 1:02:02.840 good bad guy plot, right, Yeah, yeah, You're absolutely right, Buck. 1:02:02.880 --> 1:02:04.880 I mean, he lives, like you said, in this tiny 1:02:04.960 --> 1:02:07.520 room in the Ecuadorian embassy. The idea that that would 1:02:07.640 --> 1:02:10.400 stay secret for over two two and a half years 1:02:10.800 --> 1:02:13.840 just seems patently absurd. And then if you go down 1:02:13.920 --> 1:02:15.919 you know, if you go down the road on that 1:02:16.840 --> 1:02:20.040 in terms of alleged for knowledge or whatever. Even even 1:02:20.440 --> 1:02:24.080 let's go back to Jerome Corsi, he was thinking, according 1:02:24.120 --> 1:02:27.480 to his own emails and draft records, that this was 1:02:27.600 --> 1:02:31.920 stories about like the Panama papers in relation to John 1:02:32.120 --> 1:02:35.840 and Tony Podesta, which of course that's absolutely nothing to 1:02:35.920 --> 1:02:38.520 do with what it ended up coming out. So it 1:02:38.680 --> 1:02:41.160 really does seem like a lot of these guys were 1:02:41.160 --> 1:02:44.400 just trying to guess on what sort of so called 1:02:44.480 --> 1:02:48.320 damaging information was out there, and then Wiki Leaks did 1:02:48.400 --> 1:02:50.640 end up dropping it, and then you know, some weird 1:02:50.760 --> 1:02:54.880 characters both either tried to claim credit or they just 1:02:55.040 --> 1:02:59.919 used it as they would any APO dump in a campaign. Yeah. 1:03:00.200 --> 1:03:03.320 I interviewed Roger Stone a few months back and he 1:03:03.640 --> 1:03:06.960 was basically like, yeah, I might get I might get prosecuted. 1:03:07.080 --> 1:03:10.400 I was like, Wow, he's very in soussion for a 1:03:10.440 --> 1:03:14.200 guy who might be heading to a federal prison. Yeah, 1:03:14.440 --> 1:03:18.160 I thought to Roger quite a bit. Rogers convinced that 1:03:18.200 --> 1:03:20.400 the Mueller team has it out for him and that 1:03:20.440 --> 1:03:22.600 they're going to try and diet in and he should 1:03:22.600 --> 1:03:24.960 probably be pretty scared because if you look at what's 1:03:24.960 --> 1:03:27.320 going on with Jerome Corsie, you have a guy. So 1:03:27.360 --> 1:03:29.400 of course he deleted all of his emails and so 1:03:29.440 --> 1:03:32.200 then in the course of an interview, he was asked 1:03:32.560 --> 1:03:35.720 about something and he said, to the best of my recollection, 1:03:36.080 --> 1:03:39.360 I did not do X. Then they produced an email 1:03:39.440 --> 1:03:42.520 showing that he had done that, and they allowed him 1:03:42.520 --> 1:03:45.240 to revise his statement. What they're trying to nail him 1:03:45.280 --> 1:03:48.080 with now is lying to the FBI, and he's saying, no, 1:03:48.560 --> 1:03:51.560 I didn't lie. I just didn't have the records in 1:03:51.600 --> 1:03:54.280 front of me, and I didn't remember this email that 1:03:54.320 --> 1:03:56.600 I had sent over two and a half years ago. 1:03:56.840 --> 1:03:58.200 And so if you look at the you know, just 1:03:58.280 --> 1:04:01.720 the technicalities that they are getting people on in this case. 1:04:02.120 --> 1:04:05.440 You know, Roger, you know, I think the president said 1:04:05.800 --> 1:04:08.080 the President said one of the reasons that he won't 1:04:08.080 --> 1:04:10.000 sit down with Mueller's because if he claimed it was 1:04:10.040 --> 1:04:12.240 a cloudy day and it was actually blue sky, that 1:04:12.320 --> 1:04:15.760 they would indict him for lying to the FBI. Well, 1:04:15.800 --> 1:04:18.680 there is there is a judgment that comes into all this. 1:04:18.960 --> 1:04:21.520 There there are some gray areas, and if you have 1:04:21.560 --> 1:04:24.240 a prosecutor that really does want to make an example 1:04:24.280 --> 1:04:27.240 of you, I mean one, you know, one situation that 1:04:27.560 --> 1:04:30.640 folks should be reminded of is what happened during the 1:04:30.640 --> 1:04:33.520 whole Scooter Libby debacle. I mean, people keep saying, and 1:04:33.800 --> 1:04:37.760 I've had to point out to some very prominent lefty 1:04:37.960 --> 1:04:41.800 news anchors, they keep saying that he was indicted for 1:04:42.000 --> 1:04:46.360 revealing the name of a of a CIA officer, of 1:04:46.400 --> 1:04:49.640 a covert employee of a CIA. That's what happened Scooter Libby. No, 1:04:49.840 --> 1:04:53.680 he was. He was prosecuted for lying about a conversation 1:04:53.800 --> 1:04:58.320 with a journalist who already knew about this person's identity, 1:04:59.240 --> 1:05:01.360 which is what you never gets brought up in this 1:05:01.440 --> 1:05:04.320 context at all. So you know, what is a lie 1:05:04.360 --> 1:05:07.240 worthy of prosecution and what is somebody misremembering is a grayer? 1:05:07.320 --> 1:05:10.440 You know, you were there today in the West Wing, 1:05:10.760 --> 1:05:14.640 I assumed during the press conference, first one in a while, Yes, yeah, 1:05:14.720 --> 1:05:17.560 I was, I was there first one in the last month. 1:05:18.280 --> 1:05:21.080 This subject did come up. But Sarah Sanders. You know, 1:05:21.160 --> 1:05:23.240 she stuck by it. She said there's been no collusion. 1:05:23.280 --> 1:05:26.800 The President's not really worried about whatever this man, this 1:05:27.120 --> 1:05:30.280 latest development is, and that when the Mueller report comes out, 1:05:30.320 --> 1:05:32.040 he's also not worried because he knows he didn't do 1:05:32.080 --> 1:05:36.040 anything wrong anything that was a surprise to you from 1:05:36.080 --> 1:05:38.280 the press conference. Name what was it? What's it like 1:05:38.440 --> 1:05:43.040 having a costed back of the room after all that mess. Yeah, 1:05:43.080 --> 1:05:46.920 I mean Jim asked several questions as he normally does. 1:05:46.960 --> 1:05:50.040 He takes quite a bit of time. Uh, he likes, 1:05:50.160 --> 1:05:52.720 he likes to get several follow ups in there. But 1:05:52.920 --> 1:05:55.520 you know, overall today was actually pretty run of the mill. 1:05:55.640 --> 1:05:58.880 Lots of policy. There was only a few Muller questions. 1:05:59.240 --> 1:06:02.680 There wasn't a Usually what happens whenever something's going on 1:06:03.000 --> 1:06:06.680 with the Muller investigations, you get about twelve different versions 1:06:06.680 --> 1:06:09.680 of the exact same question with the same answer. But 1:06:09.720 --> 1:06:12.479 you know, today it was only fourteen minutes and most 1:06:12.480 --> 1:06:15.200 of the briefing was talking about the President headed down 1:06:15.240 --> 1:06:18.560 to Argentina for his G twenty summit. So we have 1:06:18.600 --> 1:06:21.040 a surprising amount of policy that was that was talked 1:06:21.040 --> 1:06:25.520 about today. Saga and Jetty. Everybody follow him on Twitter. 1:06:25.640 --> 1:06:31.480 Also read his latest at Daily Caller Daily Caller dot com. 1:06:32.000 --> 1:06:34.480 He's a wet else correspondent Zager great workers always my man, 1:06:34.560 --> 1:06:39.240 Come back soon, Thanks Buck. All right, team, let's let's 1:06:39.240 --> 1:06:41.720 talk a bit about the economy coming up here in 1:06:41.800 --> 1:06:43.560 a moments. A lot of talk about that today from 1:06:43.560 --> 1:06:45.880 the White House. We'll get to that in just a moment. 1:06:46.760 --> 1:06:50.840 Even Obama's undersecretary for Science didn't believe the radical conclusions 1:06:50.840 --> 1:06:53.520 of the report that release. And you have to look 1:06:53.560 --> 1:06:55.320 at the fact that this report is based on the 1:06:55.360 --> 1:06:59.439 most extreme modeled scenario, which contradicts long established trends. It's 1:06:59.440 --> 1:07:02.800 not they on facts, it's based on it's not data driven. 1:07:02.800 --> 1:07:04.960 We'd like to see something that is more data driven. 1:07:05.000 --> 1:07:07.480 It's based on modeling, which is extremely hard to do 1:07:07.480 --> 1:07:09.640 when you're talking about the climate. Our focus is on 1:07:09.760 --> 1:07:13.760 making sure we have the safest, cleanest error in water, 1:07:13.800 --> 1:07:17.240 and the President's going to do exactly though there is 1:07:17.280 --> 1:07:22.200 this climate change hysteria out there, as you know, something 1:07:22.200 --> 1:07:25.120 that we I try not to obsess about it in 1:07:25.160 --> 1:07:28.520 response to the left's obsession, because if you're listening to 1:07:28.560 --> 1:07:31.280 this show, if you were a climate change alarmist. You 1:07:31.320 --> 1:07:34.160 probably wouldn't be able to listen to me because you 1:07:34.200 --> 1:07:37.880 would think that I was essentially hoping for the destruction 1:07:37.920 --> 1:07:39.800 of the planet, which tells you a lot about how 1:07:39.800 --> 1:07:44.040 crazy climate change alarmists really are. You know, I managed 1:07:44.080 --> 1:07:48.120 to sit down today with a woman who's basically from 1:07:48.160 --> 1:07:51.480 the Obama administration. She worked. I forget what she was doing, 1:07:51.800 --> 1:07:54.080 but she was all about how Trump is removing all 1:07:54.120 --> 1:07:57.600 of these regulations and it's just so bad. He's removing 1:07:57.640 --> 1:07:59.880 all these regulations because we need clean water. And I said, ok, 1:08:00.400 --> 1:08:03.800 what's one regulation he's removed that has made water less clean? 1:08:03.800 --> 1:08:06.760 Tell tell me what the regulation is, and oh and 1:08:06.840 --> 1:08:09.120 I and a lot of sort of well, the General 1:08:09.160 --> 1:08:13.160 Waterway Treaty blah blat, a lot of a lot of claptrap. 1:08:13.320 --> 1:08:15.520 And then I managed to ask. I said, Okay, so 1:08:15.600 --> 1:08:18.920 Trump's gotten rid of tons of regulations. Is there one 1:08:19.040 --> 1:08:22.559 regulation that Trump has gotten rid of that you agree 1:08:22.560 --> 1:08:24.920 with him on? This is a person, minds you, an 1:08:24.960 --> 1:08:30.680 Obama administration official appointee. This is somebody who all she 1:08:30.720 --> 1:08:34.960 does is promote promote regulation, not deregulation. Couldn't come up 1:08:35.000 --> 1:08:38.680 with a single one, not one. There's not one regulation 1:08:38.840 --> 1:08:41.639 that Trump and this is her life is to study 1:08:41.680 --> 1:08:44.240 regulations apparently, and couldn't come up with a single one. 1:08:44.280 --> 1:08:46.000 I'd sit here and think to myself, you know, this 1:08:46.080 --> 1:08:48.559 is the problem with libs. They don't really think through 1:08:48.600 --> 1:08:51.240 their arguments. They're just always an advocacy mode. And on 1:08:51.320 --> 1:08:54.120 climate change, you see this in a way that it's 1:08:54.160 --> 1:08:57.000 just breathtaking and it's arrogance and its dupidity. At the 1:08:57.040 --> 1:09:01.320 same time, this idea, yea, that climate change is going 1:09:01.360 --> 1:09:05.760 to destroy our economy. This is nuts. I don't know 1:09:05.840 --> 1:09:09.160 how else to put it. I mean, if people really 1:09:09.280 --> 1:09:14.160 believe this, then we should be taking radical, dramatic steps 1:09:14.240 --> 1:09:17.200 to destroy our economy today, because that's what it would do. 1:09:18.120 --> 1:09:20.200 That's what it would take in order to prevent this 1:09:20.840 --> 1:09:24.360 climate change catastrophe from actually happening. He hears. The Wall 1:09:24.360 --> 1:09:28.080 Street Journal take on this headlines warned of economic doom 1:09:28.160 --> 1:09:31.240 after the US government release its fourth National Climate Assessment 1:09:31.320 --> 1:09:33.960 last week. Yet a close reading of the report shows 1:09:34.000 --> 1:09:37.280 that the overall economic impact of human cause climate change 1:09:37.720 --> 1:09:41.519 is expected to be quite small. Projecting human cause changes 1:09:41.520 --> 1:09:44.799 in the global climate is a major scientific challenge. Estimates 1:09:44.800 --> 1:09:48.640 of the temperature increases due to rising greenhouse gas concentration 1:09:49.120 --> 1:09:52.439 are uncertain by a factor of three. Trying to make 1:09:52.479 --> 1:09:57.640 projections for a particular region compounds the uncertainty. Estimates of 1:09:57.680 --> 1:10:01.360 the economic impact are less certain still, in part because 1:10:01.439 --> 1:10:05.080 as yet unknown modes of adaptation will mitigate the effects. 1:10:05.479 --> 1:10:07.519 The report's numbers turn out to me not all of 1:10:07.560 --> 1:10:10.920 that alarming. Final figure on the final chapter shows an 1:10:10.920 --> 1:10:15.960 increase in global average temperature of nine degrees fahrenheit would 1:10:16.120 --> 1:10:20.760 directly reduce the US gross domestic product in twenty ninety 1:10:20.760 --> 1:10:24.320 by four percent plus or minus two percent. That is, 1:10:24.360 --> 1:10:27.560 the GDP would be about four percent less than it 1:10:27.600 --> 1:10:31.320 would have been absent human influences on the climate. That 1:10:31.640 --> 1:10:37.080 worst case estimate assumes the largest plausible temperature rise and 1:10:37.280 --> 1:10:43.519 only known modes of adaptation. My friends, we're told the 1:10:43.560 --> 1:10:49.160 economy is going to be in deep trouble because of 1:10:49.240 --> 1:10:57.160 a four percent projected worst case scenario drop in twenty ninety. 1:10:57.920 --> 1:11:00.640 And let me say, and I tell value this with 1:11:00.760 --> 1:11:04.519 absolute certainty. If I am wrong, you can show up 1:11:04.800 --> 1:11:07.559 and slap me right across the face. In twenty ninety. 1:11:07.680 --> 1:11:10.840 Let me tell you this right now. I guarantee you, 1:11:11.560 --> 1:11:15.360 I guarantee you this is true. Nobody who is talking 1:11:15.360 --> 1:11:18.680 about what the economy will look like, where it will be, 1:11:18.880 --> 1:11:23.360 what we are doing in twenty ninety has any idea 1:11:23.439 --> 1:11:27.200 what the heck they are talking about, period, full stop. 1:11:27.880 --> 1:11:33.040 They have no I mean, this whole exercise is laughable. 1:11:34.080 --> 1:11:37.920 It is preposterous because, first of all, based on real math, 1:11:38.040 --> 1:11:40.200 real numbers that we can count, and this maybe should 1:11:40.280 --> 1:11:42.479 keep you up at night, based on the amount of 1:11:42.560 --> 1:11:45.840 debt we are compiling in this country year and in 1:11:45.960 --> 1:11:49.040 year out, we are going to have the destruction of 1:11:49.200 --> 1:11:53.920 US Fiat currency decades before this four percent drop in 1:11:54.040 --> 1:11:56.920 GDP in twenty ninety. And I wouldn't even pretend to 1:11:56.920 --> 1:12:00.479 be able to tell you what decade what it's gonna happen, right, 1:12:00.760 --> 1:12:02.439 I mean, does anyone really think that you can have 1:12:02.439 --> 1:12:05.960 fifty fifty trillion dollars of US national debt and doesn't 1:12:06.080 --> 1:12:08.360 doesn't really do anything. That's fine, they'll pay that back. 1:12:08.720 --> 1:12:11.880 Someone's gonna get paid back to fifty trillion. You know, 1:12:12.360 --> 1:12:16.120 we're getting there. One more big recession, one more big 1:12:16.160 --> 1:12:20.360 spending Democrat administration. All of a sudden you find yourself 1:12:20.400 --> 1:12:23.400 in a place where, oh wait a second, oh that's 1:12:23.479 --> 1:12:27.040 right now, We got to spend another ten trillion, which 1:12:27.080 --> 1:12:31.400 is what Obama spent over his eight years ten trillion. 1:12:31.400 --> 1:12:33.439 And now that's not all spending. That's in debt in 1:12:33.520 --> 1:12:36.800 addition to the spending offset by revenue year in a 1:12:36.880 --> 1:12:38.240 year out. But but this is what I mean. I 1:12:38.280 --> 1:12:43.400 saw a CNN splainer. It's the fancy way of saying explainer. 1:12:44.000 --> 1:12:46.400 I saw a CNN explainer where they're like looking at 1:12:46.640 --> 1:12:49.360 the year twenty one hundred and how there could be 1:12:49.400 --> 1:12:52.320 I think they said it was a ten percent drop 1:12:52.400 --> 1:12:54.280 in GDP by twenty one hundred. I sit here and 1:12:54.320 --> 1:12:59.120 I think to myself, are these people idiots? Or is 1:12:59.120 --> 1:13:03.680 this just a cult of stupidity? Who really thinks that 1:13:03.840 --> 1:13:07.880 our economic projections in the year twenty one hundred from 1:13:07.920 --> 1:13:14.320 today are valid in any way, shape or form. I mean, 1:13:15.080 --> 1:13:16.600 who even knows that we're gonna have a planet in 1:13:16.600 --> 1:13:18.640 twenty one hire? Don't only get me started on all that, right, 1:13:18.640 --> 1:13:20.600 I mean, we could have a nuclear nuclear holocaust, all 1:13:20.680 --> 1:13:24.320 kinds of bad stuff. But think about what the country 1:13:24.360 --> 1:13:30.719 look like economically in nineteen sixty All right, so fifty 1:13:30.840 --> 1:13:33.880 years ago, and now not even fifty We've got to 1:13:33.920 --> 1:13:36.480 go back seventy years right, So think about what the 1:13:36.160 --> 1:13:40.800 what the financial prospects were for America and for all 1:13:40.840 --> 1:13:42.920 this stuff back in nineteen forty, and think about what 1:13:42.960 --> 1:13:45.360 they're will be like. In what they are like today, 1:13:46.439 --> 1:13:49.000 these people have no idea what they are talking about. 1:13:49.040 --> 1:13:53.719 This is lunacy in this climate change report. Not only 1:13:53.760 --> 1:13:56.719 in twenty eighteen should we be in prospective. We should 1:13:56.800 --> 1:14:01.040 move beyond introspection to reconstruction and figuring out a way 1:14:01.200 --> 1:14:05.400 to link our ideals and our practices. And in Mississippi, 1:14:05.600 --> 1:14:07.960 with the history, the ghost of Mississippi, the blood of 1:14:07.960 --> 1:14:11.439 Mississippi from its rivers, where Emmett Till died, where Meger 1:14:11.520 --> 1:14:14.400 Evers died, where those three civil rights workers, two Jews 1:14:14.400 --> 1:14:16.760 and a black person died, we have to come to 1:14:16.800 --> 1:14:19.280 grips with it in twenty eighteen. And the only way 1:14:19.320 --> 1:14:21.439 to do that is to take a harder look at 1:14:21.479 --> 1:14:23.920 what we've been able to do and not able to do, 1:14:24.160 --> 1:14:26.280 and then put, you know, roll up our sleeves, so 1:14:26.840 --> 1:14:29.679 to speak, and work together. Cindy Hyde Smith is a racist, 1:14:29.720 --> 1:14:35.280 a white nationalist, a white supremacist, a racist, a white nationalist, 1:14:35.360 --> 1:14:38.040 a white supremacist. That's being said on Cable TV about 1:14:38.040 --> 1:14:40.880 a woman who is probably going to be the next 1:14:40.920 --> 1:14:45.720 Senator from the state of Mississippi. But that passes for 1:14:46.760 --> 1:14:53.080 Democrat analysis these days, that passes for an astute assessment 1:14:53.160 --> 1:14:56.880 of what's going on in our national national politics. You know, 1:14:56.920 --> 1:15:01.920 we're going to find out here soon. What's you know, 1:15:02.360 --> 1:15:04.360 what's going on? I mean, this is going to be 1:15:04.439 --> 1:15:07.960 a close, a close race. We've got the election coming 1:15:08.000 --> 1:15:09.880 and results coming in tonight. I will not be able 1:15:09.920 --> 1:15:14.599 to tell you who has won because of the timing 1:15:14.680 --> 1:15:16.479 of when we're on air and when the results will 1:15:16.520 --> 1:15:18.680 be in b Thursday. This was gonna be tight. You've 1:15:18.680 --> 1:15:24.600 got Cindy Hyde Smith up against SP Mike esp who 1:15:24.760 --> 1:15:27.080 you know well. On the one hand, they're saying that 1:15:27.080 --> 1:15:29.400 that Hide Smith is such a racist, that guy that's 1:15:29.520 --> 1:15:33.000 I forget his name, Michael Eric Dyson, he is he 1:15:33.080 --> 1:15:35.719 is not a nice fellow. Always say everything is about 1:15:35.720 --> 1:15:37.760 how everybody else is racist, and so they love him 1:15:37.760 --> 1:15:40.760 at CNN and MSNBC because that's all they ever want 1:15:40.760 --> 1:15:43.000 to talk about is how everybody who disagrees with them 1:15:43.000 --> 1:15:46.679 as racist. But this guy ESP, when you look into 1:15:46.760 --> 1:15:51.559 his his background a little bit, you know, we're told 1:15:51.560 --> 1:15:54.160 about how you know, Hide Smith said this one thing 1:15:54.800 --> 1:15:59.160 that you know, in the context of Mississippi was insensitive 1:15:59.280 --> 1:16:02.160 and all right, fine, How many of you have been 1:16:02.200 --> 1:16:06.640 hearing from the media, for example, that Mike esp was 1:16:07.000 --> 1:16:13.960 indicted on I think it's fourteen counts and while he did, 1:16:14.080 --> 1:16:18.120 he did in fact manage to evade or rather he 1:16:18.360 --> 1:16:22.600 managed to beat the prosecution. The fact is he was 1:16:22.640 --> 1:16:25.719 involved in some very shady stuff back in the day 1:16:25.760 --> 1:16:29.599 and had to step down from his from his post. 1:16:30.520 --> 1:16:34.880 You know, Mike esp is somebody who has a checkered 1:16:35.600 --> 1:16:40.479 past in politics. He was acquitted in this gift's case. Okay, 1:16:40.479 --> 1:16:43.439 So he was the former agriculture secretary and he was 1:16:43.479 --> 1:16:46.680 forced out in nineteen ninety four by people saying that 1:16:46.680 --> 1:16:51.880 he took gifts from lobbyists. Essentially, thirty corruption charges brought 1:16:51.920 --> 1:16:55.839 against him and a lot of other people, by the way, 1:16:57.600 --> 1:17:03.280 went to prison for this, fifteen convictions, eleven million dollars 1:17:03.320 --> 1:17:08.000 in fines, and SP's indictment was that he took thirty 1:17:08.000 --> 1:17:13.360 five thousand dollars in gifts. So, you know, he's a 1:17:13.400 --> 1:17:17.280 guy who how many of you have heard this about him? Oh? 1:17:17.400 --> 1:17:19.599 The answer is I'm sure very few, because the media 1:17:19.680 --> 1:17:21.840 is not talking about this at all. He was acquitted. 1:17:22.479 --> 1:17:26.880 But this guy wants to talk about ethics, that guy 1:17:26.960 --> 1:17:29.439 wants to talk about good leadership. I think that it's 1:17:29.439 --> 1:17:33.200 only fair to point out that he was certainly surrounded 1:17:33.200 --> 1:17:34.880 by a lot of people who are engaged in some 1:17:34.920 --> 1:17:39.600 really corrupt, nasty stuff, and here you have. You know, 1:17:39.640 --> 1:17:41.800 I just think that's necessary background that we should all know. 1:17:42.040 --> 1:17:45.799 But they just want to call Cindy hide Smith racist. 1:17:45.960 --> 1:17:50.200 That's the whole point of everything that they're putting on 1:17:50.240 --> 1:17:53.439 TV now on the left, all the Democrats stuff. They're 1:17:53.479 --> 1:17:56.839 trying to find a way to trash this woman, and 1:17:57.120 --> 1:18:00.640 that's that's the purpose of their coverage by speaking of 1:18:00.680 --> 1:18:04.479 just calling people racist, and that's their form of an 1:18:04.560 --> 1:18:09.320 argument and the smear tactics that you get. You've got 1:18:09.360 --> 1:18:15.439 this guy, Max Boot, who maybe I shouldn't give him 1:18:15.479 --> 1:18:18.200 any more airtime on this show because he's someone who 1:18:18.640 --> 1:18:22.640 has embraced his status as a turncoat to all that 1:18:22.680 --> 1:18:25.280 he once believed in. And he used to be a 1:18:25.360 --> 1:18:30.760 stalwart neo conservative and considered himself a conservative. Now he 1:18:30.960 --> 1:18:38.200 goes on on CNN and finds himself trashing not just Trump, 1:18:38.240 --> 1:18:40.519 but all the people that support Trump and all the 1:18:40.560 --> 1:18:45.320 ideas beyond, and you've never really made the full break 1:18:45.320 --> 1:18:49.240 with the right until you're willing to just be a 1:18:51.120 --> 1:18:55.680 complete shill for the climate change alarmists. You have to 1:18:55.720 --> 1:18:59.840 be running around saying the same stupid talking points about 1:19:00.560 --> 1:19:03.240 how science has settled on this and all the rest 1:19:03.240 --> 1:19:07.160 of it. Here, here's what Max boot now does because 1:19:07.240 --> 1:19:10.840 he's an anti Trump, never Trump jerk play twenty. Okay, 1:19:10.880 --> 1:19:13.160 you're trying to filibuster because you're embarrassed by about what 1:19:13.160 --> 1:19:18.240 I'm gonna say, which is that you and I'm embarrassed. 1:19:16.640 --> 1:19:23.479 I'm embarrassed about Okay, I'm embarrassed by your filibuster, and 1:19:23.479 --> 1:19:25.639 I'm embarrassed by the fact that you will not call 1:19:25.680 --> 1:19:28.320 out this blatant racism on the part of Sidney hid 1:19:28.400 --> 1:19:31.360 Smith and Donald Trump. You offer this kind of values 1:19:31.400 --> 1:19:35.080 and neutral horse race analysis, and you refuse to condemn 1:19:35.280 --> 1:19:38.320 the descent into bigotry of the Republican Party, the Party 1:19:38.320 --> 1:19:41.000 of Lincoln. This is a disgrace to what the Republican 1:19:41.040 --> 1:19:43.640 Party has stood for for so much of its history. 1:19:45.240 --> 1:19:48.840 The Republican Party has stood for racism. Max. That's really 1:19:48.840 --> 1:19:51.880 interesting because the Democrats are the party of slavery, segregation 1:19:51.960 --> 1:19:55.120 and Jim Crowe, but the Republican Party stands for racism. 1:19:57.600 --> 1:20:01.599 This is this is a recurring theme. Though. Find something 1:20:01.640 --> 1:20:05.800 that a politician says that maybe is you know, that 1:20:07.120 --> 1:20:10.599 was ill advised, but with no ill intent, and turn 1:20:10.640 --> 1:20:13.760 it into oh my gosh, this person is so racist. 1:20:14.160 --> 1:20:17.280 They're the most racist racist ever and that's all they 1:20:17.320 --> 1:20:19.360 want to say. Oh, I mentioned the climate change the 1:20:19.360 --> 1:20:22.240 thing because boot that was last night. Remember he's one 1:20:22.280 --> 1:20:24.640 of the Look, he's a he's a trader to conservatism, 1:20:25.160 --> 1:20:27.839 and so he's going on TV doing calling the Republican 1:20:27.880 --> 1:20:32.559 a Mississippi racist, calling the whole GOP racist. And now 1:20:32.600 --> 1:20:35.400 he's written in the Washington Post within twenty four hours 1:20:35.400 --> 1:20:39.080 of that appearance, I was wrong on climate change. Why 1:20:39.120 --> 1:20:43.000 can't other conservatives admit it too? See? This is what 1:20:43.040 --> 1:20:47.559 I mean. He This is how you prove your fealty 1:20:47.680 --> 1:20:51.200 to the to the left. You have to go with 1:20:51.280 --> 1:20:53.280 there are there are a few things that you have 1:20:53.320 --> 1:20:57.160 to do. You have to say that climate change is 1:20:57.320 --> 1:21:01.240 man made and a serious problem and bend the knee 1:21:01.240 --> 1:21:05.559 on that. And you have to be willing to call 1:21:05.600 --> 1:21:08.120 everybody who disagrees with you racist. This is what the 1:21:08.160 --> 1:21:11.240 Democratic party does. Now, this is how it functions. Doesn't 1:21:11.240 --> 1:21:16.519 make arguments, makes accusations, makes allegations, and Boot and others 1:21:16.600 --> 1:21:22.639 who are essentially boot liquors of the left. Now, it's 1:21:22.680 --> 1:21:26.679 just pathetic. It's really sad in a sense to see. 1:21:26.760 --> 1:21:30.960 But I guess they hate Trump so much that they 1:21:30.960 --> 1:21:33.479 are willing to tear down everything that they have ever 1:21:33.520 --> 1:21:36.880 stood for in their adult lives and their professional lives 1:21:36.920 --> 1:21:39.200 in order to score some cheap points against Trump. Now, 1:21:39.400 --> 1:21:40.760 or maybe it's just to pay the bills, you know. 1:21:40.840 --> 1:21:44.360 Maybe I'm just taking this to an ideological place when 1:21:44.360 --> 1:21:47.160 it's really just an economic thing. They just want to 1:21:47.200 --> 1:21:49.240 make that cash, want to make that money, you know, 1:21:49.320 --> 1:21:52.240 and CNN's paying them and Fox isn't, so they'll go 1:21:52.280 --> 1:21:56.720 on CNN and trash conservatives. But Boots a disgrace. I know. 1:21:56.800 --> 1:21:59.600 It's the holidays, And if you want to give the 1:21:59.720 --> 1:22:03.000 gear of freedom, my friends, you can do that via 1:22:03.080 --> 1:22:07.400 Black Rifle Coffee.

Many of you know that I 1:22:56.360 --> 1:23:00.640 have friends at The Federalist and try to have a 1:23:00.680 --> 1:23:04.479 pretty good rotation of a guest from the Federalist dot 1:23:04.520 --> 1:23:08.360 Com who come on to this show. People like Ben 1:23:08.400 --> 1:23:12.599 Dominich who's the co founder of it, Sean Davis, Molly 1:23:12.720 --> 1:23:16.800 hemmingway En s Felcher. There's there's a whole crew over 1:23:16.800 --> 1:23:19.599 there that I think does really excellent work, and I 1:23:19.680 --> 1:23:22.519 really like getting in the mix on radio and on TV. 1:23:23.680 --> 1:23:27.040 This is one of the best federalist pieces I've read 1:23:27.200 --> 1:23:30.840 in a while, though it comes from someone named Chris Bray, 1:23:31.360 --> 1:23:35.720 who's a former infantry regiment and sorry, infantry sergeant in 1:23:35.760 --> 1:23:40.519 the US Army and has a history PhD from UCLA, 1:23:40.840 --> 1:23:45.880 so really obviously impressive in terms of his credentials, which 1:23:45.920 --> 1:23:49.640 is necessary because he's about to in this piece essentially 1:23:49.680 --> 1:23:52.880 pull apart the notion that you can judge people by 1:23:52.880 --> 1:23:56.240 their credentials. That's kind of the irony of this. He 1:23:56.280 --> 1:23:59.240 wrote this, Our culture war is between people who get 1:23:59.280 --> 1:24:03.760 results and empty suits with pristine credentials, And there's a 1:24:03.760 --> 1:24:07.679 lot of really profound stuff in here. He goes right 1:24:07.720 --> 1:24:11.599 to the heart of what I think is the real 1:24:11.720 --> 1:24:17.320 animosity that you have, particularly among among journalists toward Trump, 1:24:17.640 --> 1:24:21.240 and that is that their status is threatened. There You've 1:24:21.240 --> 1:24:24.519 often heard me say that their sense of self is threatened, 1:24:24.520 --> 1:24:27.719 meaning that their sense of their own importance in the world, 1:24:27.800 --> 1:24:33.559 their own the necessity that society has for them, that 1:24:33.880 --> 1:24:38.599 is all in doubt because Trump comes along and cast 1:24:38.720 --> 1:24:41.759 doubt over it. That's why the whole fake news issue 1:24:42.240 --> 1:24:46.200 does really Bother places like CNN, even though their ratings 1:24:46.200 --> 1:24:48.439 overall are up in the Trump era. And it's because 1:24:49.080 --> 1:24:52.680 they like to think of themselves as the guardians of democracy. 1:24:52.560 --> 1:24:58.880 They like to think of themselves as the essential protectors 1:24:59.160 --> 1:25:03.040 of you know, truth and liberty and freedom and all 1:25:03.040 --> 1:25:05.439 this other stuff, although they're generally pretty anti liberty and 1:25:05.479 --> 1:25:08.960 anti freedom in the press these days. But he goes 1:25:09.000 --> 1:25:13.599 through how throughout history and he's got a PhD in history. 1:25:14.040 --> 1:25:19.919 There were different groups, whether it is the elites in Vichy, France, 1:25:20.080 --> 1:25:22.320 who were I don't know why I just pronounced that weirdly, 1:25:22.439 --> 1:25:27.360 France Frost and now he Biont who were supposed to 1:25:27.360 --> 1:25:30.759 be running that country, who had all this fantastic schooling, 1:25:31.200 --> 1:25:38.520 or the elites in China where your Confucian, your Confucian scholarship, 1:25:39.200 --> 1:25:42.439 reputation and skills. If you are a good Confucian scholar, 1:25:43.000 --> 1:25:45.760 then you are in charge of an area. If you 1:25:45.800 --> 1:25:48.320 are fantastic, you are in charge of a whole region. 1:25:48.960 --> 1:25:50.880 And you know, if you were the best, the best, 1:25:50.920 --> 1:25:53.200 you're a national administrator. And then the British showed up 1:25:53.240 --> 1:25:55.280 during the Opium Wars with guns and we're like, guess 1:25:55.280 --> 1:25:58.439 what we're in charge now? And being a Confucian scholar 1:25:58.479 --> 1:26:02.000 didn't really matter anymore. Point year is that we have 1:26:02.080 --> 1:26:08.200 a society that is particularly obsessed with credentialing, as shown 1:26:08.240 --> 1:26:13.679 by universities. But universities are not in any way good 1:26:13.760 --> 1:26:19.360 proxies or good sorting mechanisms for how capable and how 1:26:19.400 --> 1:26:24.360 honestly how worthwhile a person is professionally or personally. These 1:26:24.479 --> 1:26:30.400 universities have been so polluted with social justice indoctrination, and 1:26:30.439 --> 1:26:35.599 the liberal orthodoxies are so uniformly enforced at them that 1:26:35.640 --> 1:26:39.920 you can't really expect somebody who comes out of a 1:26:40.000 --> 1:26:44.439 certain school to be able to defend their point of 1:26:44.520 --> 1:26:48.280 view to be impressively in any way, because there are 1:26:48.280 --> 1:26:50.439 a lot of different reasons why they take people too. 1:26:50.520 --> 1:26:54.760 Even the admissions process at these places is tainted in 1:26:54.760 --> 1:27:00.000 a sense by this left wing, redistributive, intersectional social justice 1:27:00.080 --> 1:27:04.560 this ideology. But I think he makes some really fantastic 1:27:04.600 --> 1:27:06.800 points in this, And here's one. He talks about the 1:27:06.800 --> 1:27:10.480 Obama administration and he writes, quote staffing up new administration, 1:27:10.560 --> 1:27:16.040 Barack Obama hired Cementa Power, Cass Sunstein, both professors Professor 1:27:16.080 --> 1:27:19.599 Stephen Chow, Professor Christina Romer, and so on and so on. 1:27:20.000 --> 1:27:23.880 Donald Trump hired general CEOs and governors, people who are 1:27:23.960 --> 1:27:28.040 credentialed by lives of action and management. This isn't disagreement. 1:27:28.320 --> 1:27:32.920 This is a difference of foundational premises. He also says, 1:27:32.960 --> 1:27:35.800 for forty years with oh this is this is the 1:27:35.880 --> 1:27:40.120 really most profound part of this. I think that we 1:27:40.200 --> 1:27:43.080 do not separate people into a class system in this 1:27:43.200 --> 1:27:48.200 country anymore based on their ability or even their wealth. 1:27:48.280 --> 1:27:51.679 You know, usually you'd think of wealth as the thing 1:27:51.800 --> 1:27:53.960 that determines where you are in the strata. And of 1:27:53.960 --> 1:27:56.960 course wealth does matter to some extent. With all that, 1:27:57.560 --> 1:28:02.439 but to the issue specifically here of how people think 1:28:02.479 --> 1:28:07.680 of themselves within class structure. It's really about virtue signaling 1:28:07.840 --> 1:28:11.320 and postures and cultural positions. Here's what he writes. Quote, 1:28:11.320 --> 1:28:15.200 for forty years, with gathering uniformity of purpose, our credentialing 1:28:15.240 --> 1:28:20.879 institutions have taught postures rather than skills, attitudes rather than knowledge. 1:28:21.280 --> 1:28:24.920 This isn't invariably true, and many fine scholars have taught 1:28:24.960 --> 1:28:29.400 many excellent practitioners, but the overarching trend is toward training 1:28:29.400 --> 1:28:35.080 in intellectual and psychologically uniformity, toward the world of excellent sheep. 1:28:35.680 --> 1:28:38.880 The hollowing out of our credentialing institutions has been abundantly 1:28:38.880 --> 1:28:42.520 clear for years in well known examples like the discussion 1:28:42.640 --> 1:28:45.720 of rape law at Harvard and quote, it is not 1:28:45.760 --> 1:28:50.240 about creating an intellectual space tantrum over at Halloween costumes 1:28:50.240 --> 1:28:56.080 at Yale. What credentialing institutions teach is mental rigidity, intellectual cowardice, 1:28:56.120 --> 1:28:59.519 and fear of disagreement. They narrow the mind and constrain 1:28:59.560 --> 1:29:02.360 the ability to act. Our elites largely can put the 1:29:02.360 --> 1:29:05.880 wet stuff on the red stuff. It's referring to firefighters 1:29:05.880 --> 1:29:08.240 and the most important part of their job, because it's 1:29:08.280 --> 1:29:13.320 triggering and unsafe to mention. This is this is really true. 1:29:13.360 --> 1:29:16.000 I mean these places. This is why also you see 1:29:16.640 --> 1:29:21.840 such a there's such a uniformity of belief coming out 1:29:21.840 --> 1:29:25.320 of them. This is why when you ask, well, why 1:29:25.360 --> 1:29:27.599 are so many people that go to Ivy League schools 1:29:27.640 --> 1:29:30.120 liberals and so many of them really liberal? The answer 1:29:30.280 --> 1:29:32.640 is because they're taught to be liberals. Because that's what 1:29:32.680 --> 1:29:36.240 these schools are teaching people now, and they're also constantly 1:29:36.240 --> 1:29:39.559 picking up from those around them that if you want 1:29:39.560 --> 1:29:44.960 to be considered smart, worthwhile socially acceptable and elite. You 1:29:45.080 --> 1:29:50.000 have to adopt certain postures, certain premises, and that's what 1:29:50.040 --> 1:29:53.320 they're spending a lot of time focused on, especially at 1:29:53.400 --> 1:29:56.360 the at the undergraduate level, but increasingly at the graduate level. 1:29:57.240 --> 1:29:59.280 People ask me why, you know, why didn't get an 1:29:59.280 --> 1:30:01.679 advanced degree? Thought about it? For example, I thought about 1:30:01.680 --> 1:30:03.639 getting an MBA. I thought about, at one point even 1:30:03.960 --> 1:30:07.479 getting a master's degree in international relations. But the answer 1:30:07.680 --> 1:30:11.519 is I didn't think that I needed one. The answer 1:30:11.600 --> 1:30:13.400 is also that it was going to be really expensive, 1:30:13.439 --> 1:30:14.920 and I didn't want to take on a whole bunch 1:30:14.920 --> 1:30:17.800 of debt because I don't like debt. I don't want 1:30:17.800 --> 1:30:20.800 to take on debt. I would rather live simply and 1:30:20.920 --> 1:30:24.920 frugally than owe somebody and live my life wondering if 1:30:24.920 --> 1:30:28.760 I'll be able to pay them back. But this is 1:30:28.800 --> 1:30:34.360 the real the credentialing, the fall of credentialing institutions in 1:30:34.360 --> 1:30:36.920 the public's eye is one of the main Now you 1:30:36.920 --> 1:30:39.519 could say to me, buck Trump went to Wharton. Yeah, 1:30:39.560 --> 1:30:42.080 that's all true. But on the right there's a greater 1:30:42.120 --> 1:30:46.360 acceptance of who you are is really a compilation of 1:30:46.680 --> 1:30:50.360 the choices you make and what you've done. That's who 1:30:50.400 --> 1:30:53.800 you are, who you are is not a resume, It's 1:30:53.880 --> 1:30:56.360 not a sheet of paper that I went to this 1:30:56.439 --> 1:30:58.640 place and this place in this place. I mean, I 1:30:58.680 --> 1:31:02.160 can't tell you how many people when I was in government, 1:31:02.640 --> 1:31:05.200 I would see a resume and oh, I'm talking Rhodes 1:31:05.240 --> 1:31:08.559 scholars and speak this language and that language. And then 1:31:08.600 --> 1:31:11.120 you meet them, you know, this person is just not 1:31:11.240 --> 1:31:14.840 used to thinking rigorously about anything. This person has learned 1:31:14.880 --> 1:31:17.960 to play within a certain system in order to advance 1:31:18.040 --> 1:31:22.920 himself or herself, and that system skews to the left. 1:31:23.479 --> 1:31:26.080 And that's really what you pick up from all this. 1:31:26.160 --> 1:31:28.680 That's what you pick up from these institutions. I mean, 1:31:28.720 --> 1:31:31.280 the basic legal training, for example, of a law school 1:31:31.920 --> 1:31:34.280 is pretty much the same everywhere. According to all my 1:31:34.280 --> 1:31:36.439 friends who have gone to law school. It's just a 1:31:36.520 --> 1:31:40.760 question of the elite status that you attain from going there, 1:31:40.800 --> 1:31:45.519 but also how you talk about these things, the way 1:31:45.560 --> 1:31:47.880 that you view them, the way that you present yourself. 1:31:48.680 --> 1:31:51.320 A lot of this is just about flash. It's certainly 1:31:51.320 --> 1:31:55.280 not about substance. And Democrats hate this stuff because ultimately 1:31:55.720 --> 1:31:57.960 they're the ones who are always trying to hold up 1:31:58.000 --> 1:32:00.559 their dominance at the academy as somehow evidence of their 1:32:00.560 --> 1:32:04.800 intellectual superiority. So in the Obama administration where you had 1:32:04.800 --> 1:32:08.880 all these professors, that's a perfect example of how the 1:32:08.960 --> 1:32:12.840 real world comes hard and fast to people who think 1:32:12.880 --> 1:32:16.640 that because they have a fancy sounding pedigree, everything's going 1:32:16.680 --> 1:32:19.599 to be easier. He ends as piece Chris Bray again, 1:32:19.600 --> 1:32:21.400 I thought this is really good at the Federalists, and 1:32:21.400 --> 1:32:23.080 I would recommend it to you. I'll put it up 1:32:23.080 --> 1:32:26.479 on Facebook. In short, Trump declines the authority of the 1:32:26.520 --> 1:32:30.560 cultural sectors that most assertively claim it. That's the conflict, 1:32:30.720 --> 1:32:33.439 and that's why it's being played in a relentless tone 1:32:33.439 --> 1:32:38.120 of hysteria. There are credentialing authorities and credential holding elites 1:32:38.479 --> 1:32:42.000 who can see the path to their own obsolescence, like 1:32:42.200 --> 1:32:47.400 the Empress Dowager. They will not go quietly. Yeah, that's right. 1:32:47.439 --> 1:32:49.960 That is why there's such a tantrum going on. Trump 1:32:50.120 --> 1:32:52.439 is a threat, not just to them politically, to their 1:32:52.479 --> 1:32:55.599 sense of who they are, how elite they are, how 1:32:55.680 --> 1:33:01.000 special they are, and they can't abide that. Hello, the 1:33:01.040 --> 1:33:06.040 Foreign Secretary. I saw this on the BBC Twitter account 1:33:06.040 --> 1:33:08.519 earlier today, and I gotta say I like Boris Johnson. 1:33:08.560 --> 1:33:11.320 I think he's a pretty interesting guy. I've heard him 1:33:11.360 --> 1:33:13.240 say some really good stuff in the past. I don't 1:33:13.240 --> 1:33:15.920 follow British politics closely because I got my hants full 1:33:16.280 --> 1:33:18.600 on this side of the pond. But this was I 1:33:18.600 --> 1:33:20.640 thought this was pretty great. Today this is This is 1:33:20.680 --> 1:33:24.160 Boris Johnson trying to do a little visit promo video 1:33:24.240 --> 1:33:28.559 as Foreign Secretary, their equivalent of Secretary of State Roland Ster. 1:33:29.040 --> 1:33:31.240 The Foreign Secretary has to do a quick bit of 1:33:31.240 --> 1:33:35.719 filming for his official Twitter feed. Okay, yeah, high folks, 1:33:35.720 --> 1:33:39.480 Boris Johnson, Foreign Secretary. I'm here in Lisbon, in Portugal 1:33:39.800 --> 1:33:43.320 to celebrate what is the oldest alliance and friendship in 1:33:43.439 --> 1:33:47.400 diplomatic history, going back to thirteen eighty six, going forward 1:33:47.439 --> 1:33:51.080 through the Napoleonic Wars through to the Second World War. 1:33:51.160 --> 1:33:55.519 But of course this was a place that was I 1:33:55.520 --> 1:33:58.200 think of what happened the same world w catalysts? What 1:33:58.240 --> 1:34:00.280 are we doing the same world? A neutral? Wasn't the 1:34:00.360 --> 1:34:06.120 fourth the Oars? What are we doing? The Zords? Love it? 1:34:06.600 --> 1:34:08.360 The use alls, well, what did we do in the 1:34:08.400 --> 1:34:11.920 as we were? Dol Oh? Oh yes, neutral? Neutral, that's right? 1:34:11.960 --> 1:34:15.639 Oh Portugal not really not really our best ever, ally, 1:34:15.880 --> 1:34:18.439 not not the best I've ever seen not not in 1:34:18.520 --> 1:34:20.840 fact our ally at all in the Second World War. 1:34:20.880 --> 1:34:24.280 Oh that's quite That's quite strange, isn't it? Okay, let's 1:34:24.320 --> 1:34:27.760 get back to it. Boris Johnson, Foreign Secretary. Take two, 1:34:28.120 --> 1:34:31.639 Boris Johnson, the Foreign Secretary. I'm here in Lizabeth's. Portugal 1:34:31.920 --> 1:34:36.560 is our fourth biggest trading partners, trading partner. Last we 1:34:36.680 --> 1:34:39.960 are Portugal's fourth largest. Portugal is not our fourth largest. 1:34:41.479 --> 1:34:43.439 What what do you mean? But Portual's not not our 1:34:43.479 --> 1:34:49.040 fourth third largest, fourth largest? What's going on here but Portugal? Ow? 1:34:49.400 --> 1:34:54.120 Bloody hell? Take three, high folks, Boris Johnson, I'm here 1:34:54.240 --> 1:34:57.880 in Lizabeth. James Bond himself was said to have been 1:34:58.000 --> 1:35:04.680 born in Estherill, and today James Bond was born. Well, 1:35:04.720 --> 1:35:08.360 you can't put one for you might the great idea, 1:35:08.479 --> 1:35:10.600 the idea for James Bonne was born, the idea for 1:35:10.680 --> 1:35:15.000 the James Oh, come on, what do you what do 1:35:15.040 --> 1:35:18.000 you mean? The idea for James Bond has written right 1:35:18.040 --> 1:35:21.760 there in script, Sir James Bonne Borne he idea James 1:35:21.840 --> 1:35:25.960 Bonne a person at least in literary fiction. Sec Oh, 1:35:26.080 --> 1:35:29.400 come off it. I love it with British guys fight man. 1:35:29.479 --> 1:35:32.479 It was that was great but but, but but the idea, sir, 1:35:32.640 --> 1:35:35.080 the idea? What do you mean? It says right here 1:35:35.080 --> 1:35:39.040 in my briefing book, James Bond born born in esterill, Man. 1:35:39.160 --> 1:35:40.840 Life would be so much easier if I had a 1:35:40.880 --> 1:35:43.640 British accent, really would. People would listen to me on 1:35:43.720 --> 1:35:45.920 all the different cable networks and just say, well, that 1:35:46.000 --> 1:35:48.559 guy's so smart listening to his British accent. Even if 1:35:48.600 --> 1:35:52.439 I said things like well, James Bond born here. In fact, 1:35:52.479 --> 1:35:54.920 I believe he went to preschool just down the street. 1:35:55.280 --> 1:35:59.760 He was quite a rambunctious young fellow in his early days. Yeah, 1:36:00.080 --> 1:36:02.800 or he's a fictional character. It's all pretty much the 1:36:02.920 --> 1:36:05.000 same thing. Oh, we got one more take from the 1:36:05.120 --> 1:36:07.639 Foreign Minister of the UK here. It's a great friendship, 1:36:07.920 --> 1:36:11.400 it's a great partnership. It's built on shared values and 1:36:11.479 --> 1:36:18.720 we're gonna take it from you, right. They go, oh, 1:36:19.000 --> 1:36:21.200 all right, now we can finish. Oh we're all finished. 1:36:21.200 --> 1:36:26.400 Oh great, fantastic. That's fun stuff. Man. People don't realize 1:36:26.920 --> 1:36:31.880 how much social media is changing the way that we 1:36:32.439 --> 1:36:34.880 see each other as well. I mean, I've been telling 1:36:34.920 --> 1:36:38.560 you for a while that the biggest problem with credibility 1:36:38.600 --> 1:36:41.599 for journalists is not even the fake news that they peddle. 1:36:42.200 --> 1:36:45.519 It's that because of their social media accounts, we are 1:36:45.600 --> 1:36:48.680 all now able to see just who they really are 1:36:48.960 --> 1:36:51.560 and what they think and what their biases are. And 1:36:51.800 --> 1:36:55.559 they act like that doesn't mean anything, or perhaps we're 1:36:55.600 --> 1:36:58.120 all too dumb to figure out who they are based 1:36:58.200 --> 1:37:01.880 on their social media profiles. But with politicians too, you know, 1:37:02.280 --> 1:37:05.560 everybody is now a pundit. I mean, everybody has instantaneous 1:37:06.240 --> 1:37:09.720 publication access. They can just decide that they're going to 1:37:09.760 --> 1:37:12.320 share a thought. In that thought, if it has enough 1:37:12.400 --> 1:37:15.800 interest from people, can then go viral. So it's it's 1:37:15.800 --> 1:37:18.600 a bit of a game changing experience. But even politicians 1:37:18.680 --> 1:37:21.960 now walking out with their staffs trying to come up 1:37:22.040 --> 1:37:25.800 with clever things to say on Snapchat and just I'm 1:37:25.800 --> 1:37:28.680 gonna just say this one time, I don't understand the 1:37:28.880 --> 1:37:32.200 dog filter thing on Snapchat or the bunny filters or 1:37:32.240 --> 1:37:35.080 whatever the animal filters. No one looks good with an 1:37:35.120 --> 1:37:38.240 animal filter over their face. This is why Snapchat, I think, 1:37:38.360 --> 1:37:40.760 is a company that's not long for this world, because 1:37:40.840 --> 1:37:42.840 everyone who's below the age of thirty is going to 1:37:42.920 --> 1:37:45.400 figure out, oh, when I put the weird dog face 1:37:45.479 --> 1:37:48.479 filter on, I look like a dog face, which is 1:37:48.520 --> 1:37:53.920 not good. Mic drop buckets out, Roll call coming up, 1:37:54.479 --> 1:38:03.040 rock and roll, fellow patriots, time to spread some freedom 1:38:03.160 --> 1:38:11.599 coast to coast. It's time for roll call. Alrighty, roll 1:38:11.680 --> 1:38:15.960 call is where it's at. Folks always like to hear 1:38:16.000 --> 1:38:19.639 from you at Facebook dot com, slash a buck Sexton, 1:38:19.840 --> 1:38:24.400 So please do send me your thoughts, your insights, your 1:38:24.560 --> 1:38:31.559 pithy remarkable quips. Paul kicks us off today. Hey, Buck, 1:38:31.600 --> 1:38:35.240 I've heard some talk regarding the FIS a mess about 1:38:35.280 --> 1:38:39.559 abuse of classification authority. During your time as an analyst 1:38:39.640 --> 1:38:42.680 looking at classified material, what percent of documents would you 1:38:42.760 --> 1:38:46.000 guess didn't really need to be classified? Also, do you 1:38:46.120 --> 1:38:49.639 think this kind of thing happens deliberately for CYA reasons? 1:38:50.000 --> 1:38:52.839 Or is it just lazy swamp dwellers taking a shotgun 1:38:52.880 --> 1:38:56.960 approach and just classifying huge batches of documents without bothering 1:38:57.000 --> 1:38:59.280 to go through them. So sorry you have to live 1:38:59.320 --> 1:39:03.080 in the swamp. As a former denizen of Fairfax, I 1:39:03.120 --> 1:39:05.479 can honestly say you are taking one for the team. 1:39:05.760 --> 1:39:10.080 Shield tie Paul, Paul, excellent questions. Let me try to 1:39:10.120 --> 1:39:14.360 take these in order. Do I think that there see. See, 1:39:14.400 --> 1:39:19.240 there's mostly overclassification, which is a huge thing in the government. 1:39:19.280 --> 1:39:22.919 I mean they classify everything. You know, they would classify 1:39:23.000 --> 1:39:25.640 a ham sandwich if nobody stopped them from doing it. 1:39:26.080 --> 1:39:30.519 And most of that is a combination of laziness and 1:39:30.680 --> 1:39:33.760 better safe than sorry attitude. And I can understand with 1:39:33.920 --> 1:39:37.519 some things a better safe than sorry attitude certainly is 1:39:37.840 --> 1:39:40.439 the way you want to go. But when you are 1:39:40.520 --> 1:39:44.639 talking about taking that approach to pretty much everything, then 1:39:45.160 --> 1:39:48.639 you're really misusing the classification system because then that also 1:39:48.760 --> 1:39:54.799 prevents transparency, so people can't get access to government documents 1:39:54.840 --> 1:39:57.799 that they should have access to. And it also means 1:39:58.439 --> 1:40:01.000 that people like me, when I was in the government 1:40:01.040 --> 1:40:03.599 and had a top secret clearance, take a much more 1:40:04.720 --> 1:40:07.519 no big deal attitude when you know there was stuff. 1:40:07.560 --> 1:40:12.880 I mean I remember being in the CIA and coming 1:40:12.960 --> 1:40:17.880 into contact with information that was kind of wow, oh 1:40:18.000 --> 1:40:21.120 my gosh, this is really this is really serious, this 1:40:21.280 --> 1:40:24.280 is really sensitive, and you have and it's not that 1:40:24.439 --> 1:40:27.960 often that that would happen, but you can imagine that 1:40:28.040 --> 1:40:31.720 it certainly does, and you remember when it does when 1:40:32.120 --> 1:40:34.240 you're the person it happens too. So that's that's a 1:40:34.320 --> 1:40:37.960 part of it. As to the CIA aspect, well, yes, 1:40:38.120 --> 1:40:43.600 there's definitely overclassification. In fact, we saw some overclassification already 1:40:43.800 --> 1:40:47.360 in a very high profile setting with the whole Muller 1:40:47.479 --> 1:40:53.240 probe and all of the FBI and deep state shenanigans 1:40:53.280 --> 1:40:56.719 around it. When you had McCabe who was the deputy 1:40:56.800 --> 1:40:59.439 director and at one point acting director of the FBI. 1:41:00.240 --> 1:41:04.040 McCabe had a seventy thousand dollars conference room table bought 1:41:04.200 --> 1:41:07.720 for him for the executive directors or for the rather 1:41:07.800 --> 1:41:11.120 the director's conference room, and he just didn't want that 1:41:11.200 --> 1:41:13.640 information out there, and that's all that was. So they 1:41:13.720 --> 1:41:16.400 classified it and later it came out. So it's really 1:41:16.439 --> 1:41:19.280 all of the above, lots of different reasons, but over 1:41:19.360 --> 1:41:22.760 classification is a big problem. And as to the swamp, yeah, 1:41:22.800 --> 1:41:24.880 this place does not grow on me. In fact, I 1:41:24.960 --> 1:41:27.840 really do look forward to this show every day because 1:41:27.920 --> 1:41:33.240 it's like I get to connect to my folks, my people, 1:41:33.880 --> 1:41:38.639 my like minded patriots. And that's one of the beauties 1:41:38.680 --> 1:41:40.840 of this show is that it's almost like I'm sending 1:41:40.920 --> 1:41:43.240 up the distress began every time the show starts. You know, 1:41:43.479 --> 1:41:46.800 save me, Team Buck, Save me, because I am I 1:41:46.920 --> 1:41:51.120 am deep behind liberal lines. Here in DC and outside 1:41:51.200 --> 1:41:55.080 of Fox News, the White House and Republican Congressional offices, 1:41:56.040 --> 1:41:58.960 you are in You are in hostile territory here as 1:41:59.000 --> 1:42:07.439 a conservative, Steve writes Buck Comma. Steve Well put another, 1:42:07.600 --> 1:42:12.919 Steve writes, a crazy uncle echo of your sentiment regarding 1:42:13.000 --> 1:42:16.760 Media Matters, note the spelling. The people there have such 1:42:16.880 --> 1:42:21.360 repulsive personalities. I'm convinced that it's an employment requirement that 1:42:21.439 --> 1:42:25.160 the only action they get is online. They don't have 1:42:25.280 --> 1:42:30.000 to worry about birth control. From Steve Steve, I think 1:42:30.080 --> 1:42:32.800 Media Matters is a detestable organization. I think that move 1:42:32.920 --> 1:42:36.840 On is a detestable organization. And I really mean this 1:42:37.120 --> 1:42:39.920 apart from disagreeing with their politics. I just think that 1:42:40.000 --> 1:42:43.120 people who work for those places should think long and 1:42:43.240 --> 1:42:45.439 hard about what they're doing with their days. You know, 1:42:45.520 --> 1:42:47.960 what they're doing with their lives at this point because 1:42:48.040 --> 1:42:52.160 their organizations that exist to smear and undermine and destroy 1:42:52.800 --> 1:42:56.559 and have there's no good faith. No one at Media 1:42:56.640 --> 1:43:00.719 Matters operates in good faith. It is essentially a media 1:43:00.880 --> 1:43:05.599 character assassination squad that abuses the tax code. By the way, 1:43:05.640 --> 1:43:08.840 in order to be a five O one see three 1:43:09.000 --> 1:43:13.280 nonprofit Peter writes, Buck, I'm a big fan and wanted 1:43:13.280 --> 1:43:16.639 to let you know your calm, reasonable and reasoned voice 1:43:16.840 --> 1:43:20.760 for all things pro Usa is truly inspirational and also 1:43:20.880 --> 1:43:22.800 is saving this country by getting the word of logic 1:43:22.880 --> 1:43:26.360 and history out there. You make me laugh routinely. Your 1:43:26.439 --> 1:43:29.639 quip months ago about the Southern Property Law Center chipping 1:43:29.680 --> 1:43:32.760 away at the load bearing walls of Western civilization had 1:43:32.840 --> 1:43:35.599 me giggling for days. When we can laugh at such 1:43:35.600 --> 1:43:38.920 a tragedy, life is much better. Shields High, Peter, thank 1:43:39.000 --> 1:43:44.320 you so much for the very kind and encouraging note. 1:43:44.640 --> 1:43:47.599 It really does mean a lot, and please keep listening 1:43:47.600 --> 1:43:49.160 to the show. Please tell some friends about it too. 1:43:49.240 --> 1:43:51.840 Remember they can always download it, folks, and our downloads 1:43:52.240 --> 1:43:54.760 are going up earlier than they were before, so you 1:43:54.960 --> 1:43:57.800 usually should be able to listen to this show by 1:43:58.920 --> 1:44:02.640 seven Eastern time because some of our guest interviews and 1:44:02.720 --> 1:44:06.240 some other things we're able to get done in advance, 1:44:06.320 --> 1:44:09.920 so you can. You can usually get the show by, 1:44:10.479 --> 1:44:12.519 you know, earlier than you used to. I can. I 1:44:12.560 --> 1:44:14.560 can tell you that much earlier than you used to 1:44:14.600 --> 1:44:19.040 be able to. Josh writes, I love your show, but 1:44:19.160 --> 1:44:22.799 I'm done wasting my time I pull off the highway, 1:44:22.800 --> 1:44:24.920 I might commute home to message or tweet you no 1:44:25.120 --> 1:44:31.000 more have a great life Sexton. Um, well, Josh, I don't. 1:44:31.040 --> 1:44:32.800 I don't know, man. I mean I just got to 1:44:32.840 --> 1:44:35.599 your message now. Thank you for saying you love my show. 1:44:35.680 --> 1:44:37.479 Please keep listening to the show. We just we get 1:44:37.520 --> 1:44:40.000 a lot of messages in the inbox and I can't 1:44:40.040 --> 1:44:41.599 get to them all on air, or the whole show 1:44:41.680 --> 1:44:44.040 would just be people writing to me on roll call. 1:44:44.160 --> 1:44:47.440 Maybe we could do a whole Friday like roll call extravaganza. 1:44:47.479 --> 1:44:49.800 That'll be kind of fun for the end of the year. Um. 1:44:50.000 --> 1:44:53.080 Maybe that's an idea. But Josh, come back, my friend. 1:44:53.160 --> 1:44:54.800 Listen to me on your commute at home. Don't give 1:44:54.840 --> 1:44:57.000 up the freedom. Hud is here for you. We're just 1:44:57.200 --> 1:45:04.280 a little understaffed and and rambling. John, who has a 1:45:04.520 --> 1:45:08.000 very very groovy last name, John writes. Your mention of 1:45:08.040 --> 1:45:10.840 people who want to have limbs removed reminded me of 1:45:10.920 --> 1:45:14.479 this song as recorded by Billie Holiday, All of me? 1:45:14.840 --> 1:45:17.880 Why not take all of me? Can't you see I'm 1:45:17.920 --> 1:45:20.880 no good without you? Take my lips I want to 1:45:21.000 --> 1:45:24.840 lose them. Take my arms. I never use them. Wow, 1:45:24.920 --> 1:45:28.240 that's intense. You took the best, so why not take 1:45:28.320 --> 1:45:34.160 the rest, Baby, take all of me, John, thank you 1:45:34.360 --> 1:45:38.000 for sharing. I'm actually, I'll tell you a fan of 1:45:39.800 --> 1:45:46.439 Nina Simone, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald. I go through phases 1:45:46.520 --> 1:45:49.680 where I'll listen to a lot of that genre of 1:45:50.360 --> 1:45:53.679 music from that from that period of time, Nina Simone 1:45:53.720 --> 1:45:57.200 in particular. I've always actually really enjoyed listening to an 1:45:57.240 --> 1:45:59.960 Elaphitzgerald kind of just even though some of the songs 1:46:00.080 --> 1:46:04.080 are very kind of emotional and sad, ell Fitzgerald usually 1:46:04.120 --> 1:46:07.040 puts me in a good mood. Mary writes, can you 1:46:07.120 --> 1:46:10.000 tell mister Sexton thanks for the giggles each time he 1:46:10.439 --> 1:46:16.599 mocks Hillary's voice? Well, Mary, you're welcome. That's about as 1:46:16.640 --> 1:46:19.080 close to Hillary's voice as we can get tonight. But 1:46:19.240 --> 1:46:21.960 she says you're welcome, So there you go. Mark write's 1:46:21.960 --> 1:46:24.879 book Shields High. Shouldn't the Democrats be loudly and actively 1:46:25.160 --> 1:46:28.160 warning all immigrants trying to come here to stay away? 1:46:28.640 --> 1:46:30.360 You don't want to come here right now? You know, 1:46:30.600 --> 1:46:34.160 since Trump is literally hitler, you know, Mark, you raise 1:46:34.240 --> 1:46:39.519 a good point. The country on the world stage is 1:46:39.640 --> 1:46:42.760 still a place where lots of folks want to come 1:46:42.800 --> 1:46:45.360 and even if they're gonna get tear gas, you know, 1:46:45.439 --> 1:46:48.680 even if there's going to be some difficulty for them 1:46:48.880 --> 1:46:52.240 in that whole process. So clearly America, as far as 1:46:52.240 --> 1:46:54.080 the rest of the world is concerned, or at least 1:46:54.080 --> 1:46:57.559 people that have to take action based upon their perception 1:46:57.600 --> 1:47:01.760 of America. Other people don't really think that we are 1:47:01.840 --> 1:47:04.519 basically in Nazi Germany here. We just don't know it 1:47:04.600 --> 1:47:08.320 yet other countries recognized, or at least refugees people from 1:47:08.360 --> 1:47:12.519 other places recognize that is the case. You know. I 1:47:12.600 --> 1:47:16.799 would also just say that's one of the major stumbling 1:47:16.840 --> 1:47:19.439 blocks in this whole argument about how these people from 1:47:19.680 --> 1:47:22.519 Honduras and Al Salvador and Nicaragua and all the rest 1:47:22.600 --> 1:47:27.880 of it, that they are refugees or that they're asylum seekers. 1:47:28.000 --> 1:47:30.960 They've been offered asylum in Mexico, they have chosen not 1:47:31.120 --> 1:47:35.080 to take it because it's not about being safe, it's 1:47:35.080 --> 1:47:39.080 about wanting to be in America. This is very similar 1:47:39.160 --> 1:47:42.960 to if somebody on the street was saying, I am starving, 1:47:43.120 --> 1:47:46.640 please give me food, and you said, all right, I 1:47:46.760 --> 1:47:50.280 got you. Here's a you know, here's a cheeseburger and 1:47:50.360 --> 1:47:52.840 some fries. And they said, oh, I'm sorry, so I 1:47:53.080 --> 1:47:56.840 only eat prime rib medium rab because I am not 1:47:57.000 --> 1:48:01.880 a savage. Well that would seem strange, right, If you're starving, 1:48:01.920 --> 1:48:04.120 don't you just want food? And aren't you grateful for 1:48:04.280 --> 1:48:07.240 that food? If that is really your argument, then you 1:48:07.240 --> 1:48:10.639 should be able to follow that through. Sherry writes, definitely 1:48:10.680 --> 1:48:13.040 another vote here for Pickles on the side when it 1:48:13.120 --> 1:48:15.800 comes to burgers. I really enjoy your show and try 1:48:15.840 --> 1:48:17.680 to recruit more listeners for you when I can keep 1:48:17.720 --> 1:48:20.519 up the good work. Your schedule sounds grueling, but a 1:48:20.600 --> 1:48:23.360 lot of us out here appreciate your dedication. Sherry in 1:48:23.479 --> 1:48:26.280 Pennsylvania shared, thank you so much. It really means a lot. 1:48:26.360 --> 1:48:30.240 The schedule is grueling, but I love what I do, 1:48:30.640 --> 1:48:33.680 and the one thing that I look forward to every day, 1:48:33.720 --> 1:48:35.960 as I've told you so many times, is this show. 1:48:36.800 --> 1:48:40.000 That is the one thing that I am always excited 1:48:40.040 --> 1:48:42.720 to do. I'm always excited to hear from all of 1:48:42.800 --> 1:48:45.920 you and get a chance to address you here in 1:48:45.960 --> 1:48:48.800 the Freedom Hunt. So yes, thank you so much for 1:48:48.840 --> 1:48:52.160 listening in Pennsylvania. Please do spread the word, and we 1:48:52.320 --> 1:48:55.960 got one more here. Jackie writes, you have to have 1:48:56.240 --> 1:49:01.839 pickles on the burger have to and more nuts in brownies, Jackie. 1:49:02.800 --> 1:49:05.200 I know you're entitled to your opinion, even if it's wrong, 1:49:05.360 --> 1:49:07.240 but come on, I mean, it's one thing to say 1:49:07.320 --> 1:49:12.160 pickles on burgers, but nuts in brownies. I was gonna 1:49:12.200 --> 1:49:14.679 say that's nuts, but that's too weak. You know, that's 1:49:14.800 --> 1:49:18.800 just crazy town tonight. I'm hoping as soon as I 1:49:18.880 --> 1:49:21.680 finish radio, although it's kind of late, I might make 1:49:21.760 --> 1:49:25.320 myself some some what is it going to be a 1:49:25.439 --> 1:49:29.000 lemon butter sauce for some soul? I'm trying to expand 1:49:29.080 --> 1:49:33.880 my fish cooking abilities and my fish repertoire, my culinary 1:49:34.640 --> 1:49:37.360 seafood exploits.
