Speaker 1: You're listening to the Buck Sexton Show podcast, make sure
Speaker 1: you subscribe to the podcast on the iHeartRadio act or
Speaker 1: wherever you get your podcasts. We've got to start with
Speaker 1: first principles on the border crisis. We've got to start
Speaker 1: with baseline concepts here, fundamental view of views of this country,
Speaker 1: what we're all about and what we're trying to accomplish,
Speaker 1: and what the rule of law actually means. Because what
Speaker 1: you'll find is that we're arguing about the details in
Speaker 1: this country right now. We're arguing about the details, but
Speaker 1: we're not getting into difference in foundational separation in our
Speaker 1: political philosophy between the left and the right. There are
Speaker 1: all these people right now who think, oh, the Democrats
Speaker 1: want this crisis to stop. Two, the Democrats don't actually
Speaker 1: want people coming over the border one hundred thousand plus
Speaker 1: a month so that they can flood the immigration system,
Speaker 1: they can claim faulty asylum, they can stay, they're sending
Speaker 1: their children there, enriching the cartels. Democrats don't don't want
Speaker 1: any of that, right, No, actually they do. And that's
Speaker 1: what people are just starting to see now. This is
Speaker 1: happening exactly as predicted and largely as planned. The problem
Speaker 1: that the Democrats have with all of this is that
Speaker 1: we're seeing it and it's happening faster than they anticipated.
Speaker 1: I want to explain this to you, but we've got
Speaker 1: to make this very clear. This is the border crisis
Speaker 1: the Democrats want, and they still see this as a
Speaker 1: massive opportunity. And this is the kind of thing that
Speaker 1: if I keep saying this on social media, I'm sure
Speaker 1: I'll get censored. They'll probably start blocking my Twitter account
Speaker 1: doing all the things they've already done to me about COVID. Who,
Speaker 1: by the way, who is right on COVID lockdowns? I
Speaker 1: was the people that are citing the science they were wrong.
Speaker 1: Do you think that the social media sites care about
Speaker 1: that though? No. In fact, I'm on their radar. They
Speaker 1: now look to shut me down, and they're doing that
Speaker 1: to you too. They have all your data, They see
Speaker 1: what you're saying, they see what you're up to, and
Speaker 1: they sell that, but they also use it for their
Speaker 1: own purposes. You think that your right to free speech
Speaker 1: is safe while megacorporations that are working hand in glove
Speaker 1: with the left want to try to silence you or
Speaker 1: maybe just change your mind without you even knowing it.
Speaker 1: You need to protect your privacy online. This is absolutely
Speaker 1: essential with Express VPN. Express vpn lets you anonymize much
Speaker 1: of your online presence. It hides your IP address. That

Speaker 1: then you are protected. It encrypts one hundred percent of
Speaker 1: your data to make sure that hackers in internet, bad

Speaker 1: to continue. They just want to control it better. That's
Speaker 1: what you have to understand. We're in a different place
Speaker 1: here on this issue than they are. We are told
Speaker 1: the way the media talks about it. We just use
Speaker 1: this word crisis. As we know Democrats view crises as opportunities,
Speaker 1: and this is yet another one for them. What is
Speaker 1: the downside of this for them? Well, it's happening too
Speaker 1: fast and they're overwhelming the facilities. When Democrats talk about
Speaker 1: trying to fix this, what are they saying, do you well,
Speaker 1: we've got to wait. They're telling people, don't come yet.
Speaker 1: That's the big claim. Meanwhile, much of the rest of
Speaker 1: the country is saying, hold on a second. So we
Speaker 1: have an open border right now, right and if anybody
Speaker 1: says no, we don't. If you show up right now
Speaker 1: on foot at the US Mexico border as if for
Speaker 1: a national you flag down to patrol and you say,
Speaker 1: I have a credible fear of persecution in my home country,
Speaker 1: and that's really all you have to say. There's an
Speaker 1: overwhelmingly high chance that you will be processed and then
Speaker 1: released in the US interior with a pending court date,
Speaker 1: that you're they're never going to track you down and
Speaker 1: kick you out of the country and deport you even
Speaker 1: if you don't show up for your hearing. It's the
Speaker 1: chance of that happening is probably, you know, less than ten,
Speaker 1: less than five percent, So your odds are really good
Speaker 1: and if you come back with the way the Biden
Speaker 1: administration is enforcing the law right now or not enforcing it.
Speaker 1: Even if you're a repeat offender for a legal crossing,
Speaker 1: you aren't penalized in any significant fashion. So we have
Speaker 1: an ongoing immigration debacle at the US Mexico border, but
Speaker 1: our political parties have two entirely different views of what
Speaker 1: makes it a problem. I mean, if you believe in
Speaker 1: American sovereignty and the rule of law, the crisis is
Speaker 1: simply that we have a day facto open order that's
Speaker 1: over one hundred thousand illegal aliens a month now flooding
Speaker 1: in the United States because they know the Democrats will
Speaker 1: let them stay and want to give them amnesty, and
Speaker 1: more coming every day. I mean, our immigration system looks
Speaker 1: like a big joke right now if you're the Biden
Speaker 1: White House. On the other hand, the problem at the
Speaker 1: border is there are so many illegals crossing into the
Speaker 1: US that they can't be processed fast enough. Detention facilities
Speaker 1: for unaccompanied miners. I'm not talking about kids in cages here, right,
Speaker 1: because that's only when Trump is an office. No, they're
Speaker 1: detention facilities for unaccompanied miners. They're overflowing. The American people
Speaker 1: are figuring out what's going on here because the wave
Speaker 1: of illegal immigration is so heavy, is so extreme that
Speaker 1: it's Alinsky style overwhelming the processing of those of those
Speaker 1: migrants in the United States. So that's what they view
Speaker 1: as the real problem. The Biden administrations talk about a
Speaker 1: humane immigration policy was really just a giant invitation to
Speaker 1: illegals from all over the world to game the process
Speaker 1: and skip to the front of the line. That's now
Speaker 1: a political problem for Democrats who are hoping that a
Speaker 1: coalition of leftist corporatis and GLP establishment elites are going
Speaker 1: to be able to ram through amnesty before the American
Speaker 1: people realize that the electoral map is being transformed. It's
Speaker 1: where everyone has to realize that the Biden, Democrats and
Speaker 1: the rest of the country aren't on the same page.
Speaker 1: When DHS Secretary Majorca says, do not take the journey now,
Speaker 1: give us time to build an orderly, safe way in
Speaker 1: the United States, he's giving away the game. That's the
Speaker 1: whole problem they have. They want bigger facilities, more facilities,
Speaker 1: more personnel to feed clothed, give medicine two and give
Speaker 1: housing two. An endless influx of illegal immigrants, and they're
Speaker 1: not just from Central America. They're from all over the world.
Speaker 1: If you can get to Mexico right now, you can
Speaker 1: gain entry into the United States. That's the way it works.
Speaker 1: If you can get to Mexico, you can walk into
Speaker 1: the US. You may be detained for a few days,
Speaker 1: but you're going to be fed and taken care of
Speaker 1: and clothed, and they'll give you medical care and everything else,
Speaker 1: and then you'll be released. Often they're just releasing migrants
Speaker 1: at bus stops or they just say, you know, here
Speaker 1: you go. You're on your own. But there's a court
Speaker 1: date that's going to come up in about two years.
Speaker 1: Be sure you show up at it. Do you think
Speaker 1: that's really going to happen By the time that court
Speaker 1: date even comes up? What do you think the chances
Speaker 1: are the world have some form of amnesty in place. See,
Speaker 1: this is the fundamental problem. The Democrats aren't upset about
Speaker 1: foreigners flooding into America. They love that as long as
Speaker 1: they provide reliable votes. What bothers Joe Biden and his
Speaker 1: handlers is that the facilities meant to process these illegals
Speaker 1: are bursting at the seams. The optics of the overflowing
Speaker 1: detention areas are so poor that Americans are starting to say,
Speaker 1: what the heck is going on down there? What we're
Speaker 1: seeing at the government is actually a collision of seeing
Speaker 1: at the border, rather as a collision of fundamentally different
Speaker 1: views of America's future. Conservatives believe that immigration laws must
Speaker 1: be respected and enforced, which means stopping the flow of illegals.
Speaker 1: The Biden administration, on the other hand, has no interest
Speaker 1: in stopping illegal crossings. On the contrary, it's trying to
Speaker 1: kick the door wide open in preparation for an amnesty
Speaker 1: that will end the GOP as a political force forever.
Speaker 1: Those are the stakes here. We can all see how
Speaker 1: this is playing out. We can all see what's happening.
Speaker 1: Biden isn't trying to end the current avalanche of illegal entry.
Speaker 1: He just wants to control the flow, don't you see.
Speaker 1: Slow it down, guys, let's get let's get it down
Speaker 1: a little bit. You can still come in, you can
Speaker 1: still claim phony asylum. You can still have a giant
Speaker 1: backdoor entry into the United States. And remember this is
Speaker 1: a program that was set up. The asylum program is
Speaker 1: meant for people who are truly fleeing political persecution and
Speaker 1: the possibility of death if they stay in their home countries.
Speaker 1: Is is that what we're seeing. No, overwhelmingly, what we
Speaker 1: see are people who just want to come to America.
Speaker 1: It's better here than in their home country. They have
Speaker 1: better economic prospects, and they recognize that this is an
Speaker 1: easy way to do it. All those people, and I
Speaker 1: know a lot of them, listen to this show, right,
Speaker 1: all those legal immigrants who have joined the American family
Speaker 1: with full respect for our laws and are such a
Speaker 1: critical part of what makes us America. They've got to
Speaker 1: be looking at this and saying, well, I guess I
Speaker 1: could have just shown up and stayed. All those years
Speaker 1: of doing things the right way, and all those years
Speaker 1: of paying the taxes I was supposed to pay, sometimes
Speaker 1: paying immigration attorneys and going through the you know, the
Speaker 1: naturalization process, or going through first visas and then citizenship
Speaker 1: and all all the things that come up. Or you
Speaker 1: could have just waited for a Biden administration, for a
Speaker 1: Democrat left wing open borders frenzy, and just showed up
Speaker 1: and said, uh, yeah, here I am, I'm gonna stay.
Speaker 1: I like it better here now. If you as an
Speaker 1: American tried to do this in Europe, by the way,
Speaker 1: you'd be told that's funny, you're on the next plane home.
Speaker 1: Other countries are allowed to have borders, Other countries are
Speaker 1: allowed to establish sovereignty over who comes and goes. We
Speaker 1: are not. It's racist to have borders. That's that's what
Speaker 1: we've turned into as a country. It's racist to have borders,
Speaker 1: according to the left. So all these other countries all
Speaker 1: over the world are somehow not racist for enforcing their borders.
Speaker 1: But America, that's that's all it is. We take a
Speaker 1: million people a year in the United States through the
Speaker 1: legal immigration process. But if you have a problem with
Speaker 1: taking another million illegally, or half a million, or whatever
Speaker 1: the number is going to be this year, you're a bigot.
Speaker 1: You're a bigot. Why do we even have an immigration system.
Speaker 1: We have to ask these fundamental questions. Why have an
Speaker 1: immigration system? If illegal immigration isn't a problem, if assimilation
Speaker 1: isn't a real thing, if merit based immigration is a joke,
Speaker 1: if all these things are just lies that the right
Speaker 1: has been telling Americans for oh, I don't know generations. Now,
Speaker 1: if that's all true, then why not just come out
Speaker 1: and say a Democrats, anybody who wants to come gets
Speaker 1: to come, and you can leave when you want to
Speaker 1: leave too. I wonder how that's going to work. This
Speaker 1: is the America that they are setting up, but they
Speaker 1: don't care. What they care about is that there are
Speaker 1: many millions and we always get into these debates about
Speaker 1: how many millions, many millions of illegal immigrant in the
Speaker 1: United States who are just waiting to be legalized and
Speaker 1: they will be given the right to vote. And Democrats
Speaker 1: know that once they're legalized, then the next step I'm
Speaker 1: giving them citizenship and voting rights. I'm not gonna understand
Speaker 1: the way of that. You're kidding me. That's the whole point.
Speaker 1: That's why Democrats want to do this, and Republicans sit
Speaker 1: around arguing about nonsense. Republicans think that if we can
Speaker 1: hold the marginal tax rate on individual income down two
Speaker 1: or three percent, that's a big victory. Democrats are trying
Speaker 1: to change the game, and they are an open borders
Speaker 1: party in all but name. They want any foreigner who
Speaker 1: comes into America through whatever illegal or dishonest means to
Speaker 1: stay because it solidifies their power. Wake up, America, Your
Speaker 1: country hangs in the balance. He has suspended construction of
Speaker 1: the border wall, jeopardizing our national security. He's embraced he
Speaker 1: halted most deportations, he cut domestic immigration arrest by sixty
Speaker 1: and dismantled the migrant protection protocols. This administration through our
Speaker 1: existing immigration law out the window and let the world
Speaker 1: know that when it comes to illegal entry, not only
Speaker 1: will we look the other way, this administration is encouraging
Speaker 1: them to come Centor Blackburn's right, in every way, they
Speaker 1: have made it harder to enforce immigration law. They have
Speaker 1: taken every opportunity. The Democrats, the Biden administration have made
Speaker 1: it so that the chances of access and staying through
Speaker 1: illegal means is as high as it can be without
Speaker 1: just disbanding border patrol. Disbanding Remember, they wanted to abolish ice.
Speaker 1: That was the that was the rallying cry from a
Speaker 1: see under the Trump administration, it was kids in cages,
Speaker 1: which apparently they're back in the cages and abolish ice.
Speaker 1: But that was too honest. The Democrats have this recurring
Speaker 1: problem where they can't tell the American people overall what
Speaker 1: they're really going to do. They give some talking points
Speaker 1: version of it that doesn't sound quite as radical and
Speaker 1: then behind the scenes, the actual decisions they make and
Speaker 1: the policies they push are going toward the radical goal.
Speaker 1: And that's a perfect description of what Joe Biden's role
Speaker 1: in all of this is. Joe Biden is the doddering
Speaker 1: old fool who just shuffles around. Good, I'm here, you know,
Speaker 1: to tell you the things, and maybe I'll do a
Speaker 1: press conference in a couple of weeks. And meanwhile, the
Speaker 1: Obama administration officials around him and the DNC apparatus around
Speaker 1: him is making all the actual decisions. I mean, there's
Speaker 1: all these editorials you see today. I mean, the border
Speaker 1: Cristi is the big story in the country. And I've
Speaker 1: got a piece on bucksexton dot com and I hope
Speaker 1: you will go read, go check it out on this
Speaker 1: where I just make the case to you very clearly
Speaker 1: about how Democrats don't want this to end. They just
Speaker 1: want to control the flow better, the flow of illegal immigrants. Remember,
Speaker 1: when you cross in the United States illegally, that is
Speaker 1: an illegal act, hence the term they are not cross
Speaker 1: again ports of entry. They are breaking US law in
Speaker 1: preparation to break US law again when they don't show
Speaker 1: up for their asylum hearings, or when they show up
Speaker 1: for their asylum hearings don't get it, but then don't
Speaker 1: show up for their deportation hearing, which is actually a
Speaker 1: different thing. Think about that. The problem here is one
Speaker 1: of cause and effect, and the Democrats don't want to
Speaker 1: admit it. When you make it really appealing to people
Speaker 1: to come into United States illegally, they will do it.
Speaker 1: There is a magnet, there is an enticement here, and
Speaker 1: the Democrat response to this is to actually make it
Speaker 1: more appealing. Hey, let's make sure we have great facilities,
Speaker 1: really comfortable, everyone moves through super fast. I mean, the
Speaker 1: government doesn't even do this for people that are showing
Speaker 1: up at the DMV. But we're gonna do this. We're
Speaker 1: gonna make it as seamless and painless and easy as
Speaker 1: possible to illegally enter the United States under the Biden administration.
Speaker 1: That's their approach. This is what they're saying. You know,
Speaker 1: how you get illegal immigration to stop. You make it
Speaker 1: so that there's not a benefit to coming to the
Speaker 1: United States illegally. That's the only way. Now. Look, if
Speaker 1: people want to make an argument, if the Democrats want
Speaker 1: to say, you know what we actually do we do
Speaker 1: just want to legal immigrately. Anybody wants to come should
Speaker 1: be able to come. Then change the immigration laws. Have
Speaker 1: elected officials actually make that the law, and then we
Speaker 1: could hold them accountable for that, but at least it
Speaker 1: will be within the process. What they do is lawlessness.
Speaker 1: It's encouraging on the one hand, what they pretend to
Speaker 1: be slowing down or stopping on the other. This is
Speaker 1: because ultimately they benefit from this. They're playing a double
Speaker 1: game here. But they don't want this to stop. They
Speaker 1: don't want it to stop. They don't want to call
Speaker 1: it a crisis because of the optics. But really it's
Speaker 1: just they didn't realize how appealing it was going to
Speaker 1: be to illegal immigrant this quickly to come into the
Speaker 1: United States on the bide administration. Why don't they tell
Speaker 1: us how many people are being sent back? Notice the
Speaker 1: lack of transparency around all of this. Why don't they
Speaker 1: tell us what the percentage is of people who show
Speaker 1: up at the border right now and are immediately told
Speaker 1: to turn around. You are not allowed entry in the
Speaker 1: United States. I mean, I don't think I could even
Speaker 1: go to Canada right now as an American. They turn
Speaker 1: me away. But if you show up at our southern
Speaker 1: border as a It's not just Central Americans, people from Pakistan,
Speaker 1: people from China, people from you know, anywhere, Romania, who knows.
Speaker 1: They really are showing up from dozens of countries all
Speaker 1: over the world. You show up at our southern border,
Speaker 1: you are as long as the cartels are part of
Speaker 1: the human trafficking of these individuals. They coach them on
Speaker 1: what to say, they bring them right to the border,
Speaker 1: and they have a giant open door that they walk through.
Speaker 1: If you want this to stop, you have to enforce
Speaker 1: the lawnmark. Why is Interior enforcement way down? Why did
Speaker 1: Biden call for a moratorium on deportations for one hundred days?
Speaker 1: Think about that he comes in office, is we're not
Speaker 1: going to deport anybody for one hundred days. That sounds
Speaker 1: like an administration that's preparing a grand amnesty, doesn't it
Speaker 1: What was wrong with those deportations. In fact, they're trying
Speaker 1: to undo some of the deportations that were done during
Speaker 1: the Trump years. But they tell us the system is broken.
Speaker 1: They tell us that they inherited That's my favorite. They
Speaker 1: inherited a broken system. And the reality is that people
Speaker 1: just listen to what the Democrats say, here's the border coordinator.
Speaker 1: It's not a good job to have these days. ROBERTA.
Speaker 1: Jacobson played twenty one. The Mexican president said the other day,
Speaker 1: of the migrants, they see President Biden as the migrant president.
Speaker 1: How do you respond to that? Well, I think what
Speaker 1: President Lopez Obrador is reflecting is the fact that President
Speaker 1: Biden came into office with a much more humane message,
Speaker 1: with a message that we were going to enforce our
Speaker 1: laws but also have a humane migration system. And I
Speaker 1: think what he means is that we are going to
Speaker 1: treat people fairly, we are going to reform our immigration system.
Speaker 1: And so while I understand what he was saying, I
Speaker 1: think that it's it's not the way we would put it.
Speaker 1: It is a more humane system, but it is not
Speaker 1: open borders, and it is not the fact we're going
Speaker 1: to enforce our law. This is a this is all
Speaker 1: double speak humane, more humane, What does that mean? Yeah,
Speaker 1: of course, we don't want to treat anybody poorly. These
Speaker 1: aren't bad people. They're not you know, they're overwhelmingly you know,
Speaker 1: ninety nine out of one hundred of them are not
Speaker 1: actually a violent criminal threat of any kind. So, but
Speaker 1: what does it mean to treat them humanely? Does that
Speaker 1: mean they get to stay? I mean, I really ask Yeah,
Speaker 1: of course, humanely means you give them food, in medicine,
Speaker 1: you take care of people. We're taking people into custody,
Speaker 1: just like you would if you were a prisoner anywhere
Speaker 1: else the US. You have to be given you have
Speaker 1: to be given the support of the state if you're
Speaker 1: in the custody of the state. But does humane mean
Speaker 1: they get to stay? Because if that's the case, then
Speaker 1: it is an open border. So this is the part
Speaker 1: of it that they won't answer because this goes to
Speaker 1: a fundamental lie the Democrats have told the American people,
Speaker 1: which is that they are not an open borders party.
Speaker 1: They are, they're just not quite there yet. A lot
Speaker 1: of the migrants coming in saying they're coming in because
Speaker 1: you promised to make things better. It seems to be
Speaker 1: getting worse by the day. Was it a mistake not
Speaker 1: to anticipate this surge? Well, first of all, there was
Speaker 1: a surge in the last two years, and nineteen and
Speaker 1: twenty there was a surge as well. This one might
Speaker 1: be worse. No, well it could be. But here's the
Speaker 1: deal we're sending back people to first of all, the
Speaker 1: idea that Joe Biden said, come because I heard the
Speaker 1: other day that they're coming. Because you know, I'm a
Speaker 1: nice guy and I won't get strain this. Yeah, well
Speaker 1: here's the deal. They're not do you have to say
Speaker 1: quite clearly, don't come. Yes, I can say quite clearly,
Speaker 1: don't come on when we're in the process of getting
Speaker 1: set up. Don't leave your town, our city or community.
Speaker 1: Don't come while we're in the process of setting up.
Speaker 1: What is that? What do you mean, Well, hold on
Speaker 1: a second, Why is it just don't come? What you're
Speaker 1: doing is not is not within our immigration laws. If
Speaker 1: you want to go within immigration laws, there's a whole
Speaker 1: system that people go through and you you know, you
Speaker 1: you go to uh the you you know, you US
Speaker 1: consulate and you apply for a visa or you go
Speaker 1: and you you show up at a port of entry
Speaker 1: and there's all this paperwork and we can we can
Speaker 1: talk about how it's byzantine and it's crazy and it
Speaker 1: shouldn't happen this way or whatever that it should be.
Speaker 1: You know that that process could be better and more streamlined. However,
Speaker 1: that's not what they're saying. They're saying, hold on, let's
Speaker 1: get ready so that you can keep doing this. The
Speaker 1: problem that Biden has with what's happening at the southern
Speaker 1: border is not that people are gaming the immigration system
Speaker 1: in huge numbers to make our legal immigration system a joke.
Speaker 1: The problem he has is that the facilities for people
Speaker 1: are bursting and we're hitting record numbers. And it's all
Speaker 1: because there's a Democrat in office. And we all know it.
Speaker 1: We know the Democrat Party has become We all remember
Speaker 1: when Joe Biden was among them, when they when they
Speaker 1: held their hands up on stage during the presidential debates
Speaker 1: or in the primary and they said they wanted to
Speaker 1: get free healthcare to illegal aliens. So you don't even
Speaker 1: have to be in the country legally, and the taxpayers
Speaker 1: are going to pay for your healthcare. Not emergency, not
Speaker 1: if somebody comes in with, you know, a gunshot wound
Speaker 1: in the shoulder, because we are a kind of decent people,
Speaker 1: and of course we're gonna save someone's life, but all
Speaker 1: of your healthcare, I mean, you know, your healthcare for life,
Speaker 1: and we're going to make sure that you get everything
Speaker 1: that you need. And that was the Democrat position, which
Speaker 1: is just remarkable. Because a lot of people work very
Speaker 1: hard to try to pay their healthcare premiums, work very
Speaker 1: hard to try to make the money to be productive
Speaker 1: enough to provide healthcare for their families. But if you
Speaker 1: show up illegally, now, the Democrats just want to give
Speaker 1: you healthcare. And you might say, oh, well that maybe
Speaker 1: it will be something like Medicaid, so it won't be
Speaker 1: the same healthcare that you used to do in the
Speaker 1: private sector, right, and then they'll complain that it's not
Speaker 1: good enough healthcare, so they'll want to give them the
Speaker 1: same healthcare. Everyone should get the same healthcare. Right. That's
Speaker 1: what we're actually heading toward with the Democrat Party, as
Speaker 1: you know, that does not have let does not have
Speaker 1: the end result that they like to pretend it does,
Speaker 1: really long wait times, rationing. We're going to have that
Speaker 1: healthcare discussion in this country too. But but back to immigration.
Speaker 1: Biden administration that's been in office what two months, and
Speaker 1: they're already i mean, they're already cornered on this as
Speaker 1: a messaging issue that they don't have anything to say
Speaker 1: about this that that makes any sense. I mean, all
Speaker 1: they do is essentially run around pretending like we can't
Speaker 1: actually see what we see. I mean, here's Jensaki play three. First,
Speaker 1: let me say that, like COVID, obviously different issue, but
Speaker 1: we recognize this is a big problem. The last administration
Speaker 1: left us a dismantled, an unworkable system, and like any
Speaker 1: other problem, we are going to do everything we can
Speaker 1: to solve it. So our focus here is on solutions.
Speaker 1: Let me just walk you through a couple of the steps,
Speaker 1: and we've done this a little bit, but there's always,
Speaker 1: of course, to developments on considerations that are underway. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the solutions that don't involve telling people they can't actually
Speaker 1: come into the American interior who crossed into the US
Speaker 1: illegally aren't solutions. The way that the way that you
Speaker 1: stop illegal immigration, and this really has to be said,
Speaker 1: and Democrats at some level, I think know this, but
Speaker 1: they pretend not to. The way you stop illegal immigration
Speaker 1: is to stop illegal immigration. You have to stop people
Speaker 1: from doing this or else it continues. You can talk
Speaker 1: about it, you can say you want to work on
Speaker 1: the crisis, you want to do this, that and the
Speaker 1: other thing, But ultimately it comes down to do they
Speaker 1: believe do the people coming believe that they have a
Speaker 1: very good shot of being able to stay. And therefore
Speaker 1: this is a very valuable thing, being able to be
Speaker 1: in America and this world we live in. This is
Speaker 1: an incredible country. For all of its flaws, all of
Speaker 1: its problems. We are very wealthy. We still have some
Speaker 1: freedom left. I mean, it's been the worst year for freedom,
Speaker 1: the worst twelve month period for American freedom in my lifetime.
Speaker 1: But we still have some freedom left. And we have
Speaker 1: to actually preserve the rule of law here. You know,
Speaker 1: the rule of law is largely a perception driven phenomenon.
Speaker 1: Even Orwell wrote about this back in the nineteen thirties
Speaker 1: and nineteen forties that one thing that was amazing about
Speaker 1: an Englishman is that no matter what part of society
Speaker 1: you found an Englishman in, no matter what socioeconomics strata
Speaker 1: they fell into, they had this notion, this concept of
Speaker 1: the law, and that the law made things right and wrong.
Speaker 1: It wasn't perfect, it didn't mean that there weren't people
Speaker 1: that got away with things, but there was an overarching
Speaker 1: idea of the law as something that is binding upon
Speaker 1: all of us and that at some level also holds
Speaker 1: us together as a people. Lawlessness erodes that I've been
Speaker 1: telling you and I know that there will be people
Speaker 1: that would push this aside and say that it's sillier,
Speaker 1: it's nonsense. I mean, I'm going to spend a lot
Speaker 1: of hours figuring out how much of my money the
Speaker 1: government is going to take from me this year, and
Speaker 1: if I don't do it, there is a real chance
Speaker 1: that men with firearms paid by the state will show up,
Speaker 1: take away my freedom, take me into court, and lock
Speaker 1: me up in a cell. Now, my little pitiful contribution
Speaker 1: to the federal treasury doesn't really matter. But they'll tell
Speaker 1: you it's because of the rule of law. It's because
Speaker 1: everybody has to abide by these rules. Now we can
Speaker 1: have a whole other discussion about whether the income taxes
Speaker 1: it's something that should exist. But nonetheless, if we want
Speaker 1: all the goodies we have from the government too, we
Speaker 1: are going to have to pay for them. This is
Speaker 1: the problem, and people have decided they really want the goodies.
Speaker 1: But if you come to the country illegally, if you
Speaker 1: trespass on us sovereign territory as a foreign national without
Speaker 1: permission to be here, now you aren't a problem, and
Speaker 1: you certainly should not be punished. You're actually a victim.
Speaker 1: This is the way the left is framing this, the
Speaker 1: people who are coming here illegally, they're a victim of
Speaker 1: US xenophobia. They're a victim of our insufficient immigration system.
Speaker 1: It's our fault, you see, that they come here illegally
Speaker 1: because we haven't made it easy enough for them to
Speaker 1: come legally, Which then also raises the question how many
Speaker 1: people should we take into this country legally every year?
Speaker 1: We already do about a million? Five million? Does that
Speaker 1: sound about right? Ten million? At some point does that
Speaker 1: start to change the nature and character of the American
Speaker 1: people in the American polity? Do we cease to be
Speaker 1: a country if we have a foreign born population that
Speaker 1: exceeds forty fifty percent? Now, I know we're not there yet,
Speaker 1: We're not near there, but the country is shifting very
Speaker 1: rapidly toward an open border stance. What does this look
Speaker 1: like in ten years? What does this look like in
Speaker 1: fifty years? Most of the rest of the world is
Speaker 1: very comfortable with the state being in much greater control
Speaker 1: than the American ethos allows for right now, although in
Speaker 1: the year of COVID, I think that's become more debatable
Speaker 1: than it has been previously. But this is really about
Speaker 1: what America is going to be going forward. And the
Speaker 1: Democrats are very dug in on this because ultimately, for them,
Speaker 1: the prize at the end of this is they create
Speaker 1: a one party state in America. That is the ultimate
Speaker 1: prize that they are going for. And they'll figure the
Speaker 1: rest out. What does that mean for this country, what
Speaker 1: does it look like for this country? That none of
Speaker 1: that matters. They'll figure the rest out. They just want
Speaker 1: to be in charge and a political party that believes
Speaker 1: in rule of law, sovereignty, secure borders, and constitutional protection
Speaker 1: of individual rights. It's going to be on if the
Speaker 1: open border stays open long enough, it's not broken and
Speaker 1: it doesn't need to be fixed. Our Democratic friends used
Speaker 1: the filibuster frequently in the last Congress they were in
Speaker 1: the minority in the Senate. It took advantage of, for example,
Speaker 1: killing Senator Tim Scott's police reform bill. I didn't react
Speaker 1: to that by saying, Okay, we'll change the rules of
Speaker 1: the Senate to get our way. Filibuster reform. Filibuster reform,
Speaker 1: that's what they're really gonna go with. I mean, you
Speaker 1: almost have to respect the brazenness that just this year,
Speaker 1: unbelievable dishonesty of the Democrats here. There is a system
Speaker 1: that we have and it has been around for quite
Speaker 1: some time, and the bilibuster has been in the Senate
Speaker 1: for quite some time. Democrats were willing to use it,
Speaker 1: and Republicans did not run rough shot over them. They
Speaker 1: stayed within this. I know it's a tradition of the Senate.
Speaker 1: It's not in the Constitution. I understand it's a rule
Speaker 1: of the Senate, but those rules can change. Just remember this.
Speaker 1: It was the Democrats that went with the nuclear option
Speaker 1: on judges. It was Harry Reid and the Democrats who
Speaker 1: decided that Senate tradition would have to give way because
Speaker 1: the Democrats wanted something really badly, and they wanted to
Speaker 1: do something badly enough that it didn't matter that this
Speaker 1: would have eventual blowback. It didn't matter that there would
Speaker 1: come a time when the shoe would be on the
Speaker 1: other foot and the Republican party would actually be in
Speaker 1: charge and be calling the shots, and they would remember
Speaker 1: what the Democrats did, they would remember how unwilling to
Speaker 1: compromise they were. And sure enough, this has resulted in
Speaker 1: a lot of federal judges and even Supreme Court justices
Speaker 1: getting confirmed by Republicans in latter years after Harry Reid. Remember,
Speaker 1: they pulled the trigger on the nuclear option first, because
Speaker 1: Democrats are powermad status and this is what they do, right.
Speaker 1: They they think that there's a righteousness, there's a religious
Speaker 1: fervor in their government policies and plans, and whatever they
Speaker 1: have to do to get it done, they'll do. And
Speaker 1: that's what they did. They pulled the trigger on the
Speaker 1: nuclear weapons, so to speak, of eliminating the filibuster for
Speaker 1: judicial nominees. And now we're just at the precipice of
Speaker 1: them doing it this time around for any legislation that
Speaker 1: they want. And I think the real question for them,
Speaker 1: I think, I think the real challenge for them is
Speaker 1: which bill to choose to ram through with it first.
Speaker 1: You know, you've seen how they act here. You've seen
Speaker 1: how they use they use the lay of COVID AID
Speaker 1: to create a trojan horse effect for all their other spending. Right, Oh,
Speaker 1: you know here, it's just it's just COVID relief. It's
Speaker 1: it's saving America. It's COVID relief. Well, no, it's payoffs
Speaker 1: for Democrat controlled cities. And oh, I can't even begin
Speaker 1: to cover all the different money. Nine nine percent of
Speaker 1: the one point nine trillion dollars goes to actual vaccines
Speaker 1: and COVID fighting, and the rest of it is money
Speaker 1: that Democrats just wanted to spend on things. And they
Speaker 1: say they might do another one. Now they're talking about
Speaker 1: a trillion dollar infrastructure package and they want to raise taxes.
Speaker 1: I mean, they learn nothing here. I mean they just
Speaker 1: they're they're gonna take our economy and they're gonna slow
Speaker 1: it down, and they're gonna they're gonna strangle it like
Speaker 1: a little authoritarian boa constrictor just with the coils getting
Speaker 1: tighter around the economy's neck all the time. And they're
Speaker 1: gonna say it's Trump's fault, of course, because they're irresponsible.
Speaker 1: I mean, being reckless and unaccountable is a long long
Speaker 1: time Democrat passtime. So they get rid of the filibuster
Speaker 1: for what. That's the big outstanding question. Now, that's the
Speaker 1: issue that I think everybody needs to look at it
Speaker 1: and understand is at the forefront right now. They might
Speaker 1: do it. They could do it for HR one, but
Speaker 1: I don't think that's the way to go. They want
Speaker 1: to do it for something where they view their position
Speaker 1: as essentially unassailable from a PR standpoint, the optics right,
Speaker 1: from a PR standpoint. They can probably do it on
Speaker 1: immigration and say it was necessary for humanitarian reasons. We
Speaker 1: had to give an amnesty for humanitarian reasons, for a
Speaker 1: decency called for us to eliminate the filibuster. Of course,
Speaker 1: and as I've been telling you, if they do this,
Speaker 1: and I think that there's a chance they will, now
Speaker 1: maybe you believe Joe Manchin and Kristen Cinema and some
Speaker 1: of the others will hold the line against this, but
Speaker 1: think of the pressure the Democrats will bring to bear
Speaker 1: on them. Think of the ways that they will make
Speaker 1: this more challenging. Right, and you can you can be
Speaker 1: a hero. You can be a hero to Democrats and
Speaker 1: get book deals and be loved forever and be celebrated
Speaker 1: on MSNBC by going along with the filibuster reform, which,
Speaker 1: as we know, it's just the nuclear option once again.
Speaker 1: Another this is you know, we're going from like the
Speaker 1: you know, the fat Boy bombs and now more more
Speaker 1: advanced thermonuclear devices right now we're getting into ICBMs, the
Speaker 1: nuclear option hit once again. They they will make this pitch,
Speaker 1: you know, and even to someone like Joe. It's it's
Speaker 1: gonna be tough. Democrats have a lot of inducements. It's
Speaker 1: fun to be on the democrats side. I mean my
Speaker 1: friends who are Democrats. Man, it's great. You get to
Speaker 1: be with all the cool people. You get to have
Speaker 1: all the media on your side. Basically all the corporations
Speaker 1: are with you. You know everything, it's it's it's great
Speaker 1: or I don't know. If only I could just negate
Speaker 1: who I am and what I know to be true,
Speaker 1: it would be so much fun to switch teams, right,
Speaker 1: It'd be so much fun if I could be that
Speaker 1: kind of turn coat. Now there are people who do it,
Speaker 1: but I wouldn't be able to sleep at night. And
Speaker 1: I think that's pretty important. But if they do it
Speaker 1: on immigration, the story will be Democrats brought millions of
Speaker 1: people out of the shadows into being in a part
Speaker 1: of our American family, and it was necessary to get
Speaker 1: rid of this procedural obstruction. Obstructionism is, of course a
Speaker 1: term you hear so much more frequently now, right, the
Speaker 1: edual obstruction of the filibuster. It was when Democrats are
Speaker 1: in the minority. The filibuster is in essential, essential bulwark
Speaker 1: against majoritary and tyranny. When Democrats are in the majority,
Speaker 1: the filibuster is stopping you know, the filibuster when the
Speaker 1: Senate is stopping the US government from feeding babies and
Speaker 1: saving people. And you know that's we all see the difference.
Speaker 1: We all know how this works. We understand the way
Speaker 1: this breaks down. Will they It's really I don't think
Speaker 1: it's a question of do they want to do it?
Speaker 1: It's can they get the votes to do it? Can
Speaker 1: they get the votes to then with a fifty fifty
Speaker 1: Senate tie and Kamala breaking the tie past legislation that
Speaker 1: will change America forever and will put the Republican Party
Speaker 1: on a pathway to complete irrelevancy and political insolvency. I
Speaker 1: think when they have that opportunit unity, they're going to
Speaker 1: find a way to do it. I know that you
Speaker 1: received the vaccine, Missus Trump also got the vaccine. Would
Speaker 1: you recommend to our audience that they get the vaccine?
Speaker 1: Then I would recommend it, and I would recommend it
Speaker 1: to a lot of people that don't want to get it,
Speaker 1: and a lot of those people voted for me, frankly,
Speaker 1: But you know, again, we have our freedoms and we
Speaker 1: have to live by that, and I agree with that also.
Speaker 1: But it's a great vaccine. It's a safe vaccine, and
Speaker 1: it's something that works, and we've been well working round
Speaker 1: the clock. And what I got the FDA to do,
Speaker 1: this would have happened. This would have happened in many,
Speaker 1: many years from now if we didn't if I didn't
Speaker 1: get involved, and if we didn't get involved. Now, this
Speaker 1: is the president who is saying what Democrats have been saying.
Speaker 1: The President wouldn't say, and therefore he's still to blame
Speaker 1: for vaccine hesitancy, even though he got the vaccine. He's
Speaker 1: saying on national TV, yes, I recommend you get the vaccine,
Speaker 1: and the Democrats are still going to find a way
Speaker 1: to blame Trump for vaccine hesitancy. When if you recall,
Speaker 1: and I'm not going to let this go, if you recall,
Speaker 1: in the previous the previous administration, while Trump was still
Speaker 1: in office, you had Kamala Harris and Joe Biden both
Speaker 1: when they were on the campaign trail raising doubts about
Speaker 1: the safety and effectiveness of the vaccine because it was
Speaker 1: Trump's FDA. Remember that it was Trump's FDA. Therefore you
Speaker 1: can't trust it can't trust. It not allowed, and that
Speaker 1: was reckless. That was wrong, and that should be something
Speaker 1: that people always remember because now you're getting these lectures
Speaker 1: from Democrats who wanted you the vaccine is something that
Speaker 1: Joe Biden is responsible for. It. It's as though Joe
Speaker 1: Biden were, you know, in his lab coat looking at slide.
Speaker 1: It's under a microscope. I guess it would have to
Speaker 1: be a very specialized microscope, if you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: trying to figure out how to do this. No and
Speaker 1: Joe Biden. I mean, the more I see this guy
Speaker 1: just just taking a break for a moment from the
Speaker 1: vaccine talk, the more I see Joe Biden shuffle around
Speaker 1: on camera and everything, it is unbelievable that this guy
Speaker 1: is the president of the United States. You know, there
Speaker 1: was something surreal. See I'm honest about this. There was
Speaker 1: something surreal about Trump being president because you'd say, oh
Speaker 1: my gosh, the guy from the this is like out
Speaker 1: of a movie, the guy from a celebrity apprentice. I
Speaker 1: mean it, you know, he was a celebrity who became
Speaker 1: the president. So there was a part of my brand
Speaker 1: that said this is kind of this is kind of
Speaker 1: funny or this is kind of crazy or whatever. But
Speaker 1: Trump wouldn't move around. You'd say, this guy's this guy's
Speaker 1: on it. You know, this guy's got a command presence.
Speaker 1: This guy has a persona is just full of energy
Speaker 1: and vitality. I mean, Joe Biden is walking around and
Speaker 1: you see him go up to the microphones occasionally. I
Speaker 1: mean the most recent time, we had a press spray
Speaker 1: or the pool spray or whatever they call it in
Speaker 1: the White House Press Corp where they you know, they
Speaker 1: get a group of a gaggle of reporters together to
Speaker 1: ask him one or two questions, usually like you know,
Speaker 1: what do you think of the weather, President Biden? You
Speaker 1: go to bir it's little. It's a little bit cool,
Speaker 1: but a little bit not that cool. You know. Joe
Speaker 1: Biden's a genius. Joe Biden is amazing. I also saw
Speaker 1: this anecdote that he said that he looked into Putin's
Speaker 1: soul when he met with him and looked at him
Speaker 1: and said, you know, you don't have a soul, and
Speaker 1: Putin said, I think we understand each other. Joe Biden's light.
Speaker 1: I mean, Joe Biden really is that guy who tells
Speaker 1: you a story to impress you. And your first thought
Speaker 1: as soon as he's done is that's ridiculous, you're lying
Speaker 1: to me. That's who Joe Biden is. The guy can't
Speaker 1: help it. This is who he is. So he's always been.
Speaker 1: He's just kind of a kind of a slimy sales
Speaker 1: men for bideness. And I mean when this guy shuffles
Speaker 1: around and you see him and he just he looks
Speaker 1: weak and fatigued and not up for this, and he
Speaker 1: sounds I mean the whole thing. The guy's almost eighty
Speaker 1: years old, folks. And I love the eighty year olds
Speaker 1: who are listening to this. God bless you and thank you.
Speaker 1: But I don't think, you know, people at that age
Speaker 1: should be president. You know, they should be you know, revered,
Speaker 1: you know, elder members of our families and our lives,
Speaker 1: and you know, but president at eighty really, it's it's unbelievable.
Speaker 1: And we all we see some early signs. And when
Speaker 1: we say declined, I'm not trying to diagnose him with
Speaker 1: any you know, specific illness or anything like that. I
Speaker 1: know people walk around and they say, anyone who's been
Speaker 1: around somebody who's had Alzheimer's as I have, knows that
Speaker 1: it's it's just it's heartbreaking, and it's the most it's
Speaker 1: the most serious kind of thing. So I really try
Speaker 1: to stay away from those, you know, I don't like
Speaker 1: when people start making taking cheap shots like that. You know,
Speaker 1: even if you think that Biden, when I say he's
Speaker 1: in cognitive decline, I just mean he's not as sharp
Speaker 1: as he used to be. The guy's old and he's fading,
Speaker 1: which happens to all of us. That is going to
Speaker 1: happen to everybody when they get up around that age,
Speaker 1: and we can all see it, but we're not supposed
Speaker 1: to see it. I mean, this is the most incredible
Speaker 1: emperor has no closed situation imaginable. And not only that,
Speaker 1: I mean the Democrats walk around doing what is what
Speaker 1: is aptly described by even by the left wing journalist
Speaker 1: Matt Taiebi as Soviet style propaganda. I mean it's embarrassing,
Speaker 1: it's embarrassing. But Taiebe actually actually wrote this about Biden.
Speaker 1: I mean, he wrote a piece in the National Interest
Speaker 1: and it's it's x um and and this guy's a leftist.
Speaker 1: I mean he hated Bush, he hated um. He called
Speaker 1: the Soviet sovietization of the American press. And one of
Speaker 1: the best parts of his whole analysis here is that
Speaker 1: he says they can't even get comedians to make fun
Speaker 1: of Joe Biden. The comedians, this guy is a bumbling
Speaker 1: buffoon who walks around is like a gas factory. Okay,
Speaker 1: it's like mister Magoo is the president of the United States,
Speaker 1: and the and the American press, I mean American comedians now,
Speaker 1: places like Saturday Night Live were walking around saying, oh,
Speaker 1: we we can't find anything to make fun of Joe
Speaker 1: Biden on really the ancient guy who sniffs strang women's
Speaker 1: heads when he doesn't even know them and walks around
Speaker 1: saying things that, you know, it's like clean up on
Speaker 1: Aisle five every once in a while, and Biden just says,
Speaker 1: you know, calls one a dog faced pony soldier squirer.
Speaker 1: That guy. You can't find a way to make fun
Speaker 1: of him. I mean, I just wish Democrats would live
Speaker 1: in the real world for five minutes here. Stop believing
Speaker 1: this fantasy that is being foisted upon you by CNN
Speaker 1: and the New York Times and Hollywood and Google and
Speaker 1: Facebook and Twitter. They're lying to you about this guy.
Speaker 1: Joe Biden is a clown and a joke, and until
Speaker 1: until a moment ago, Democrats recognize that even the Democrats
Speaker 1: knew this guy was always third string. And now he's
Speaker 1: president and we're all supposed to clap. I mean, do
Speaker 1: you remember when a few months ago Biden won the election.
Speaker 1: People were dancing in the streets because he was gonna
Speaker 1: do such great things for America. Yeah, hilarious. Open up
Speaker 1: the border, raised taxes, make sure that biological males can
Speaker 1: compete in women's sports, shut down the Keystone XEL pipeline.
Speaker 1: Bow to Iran. Yeah, let's go back to the bowing.
Speaker 1: Foreign policy, remember that bow down beg forgiveness for all
Speaker 1: of america sins. Other countries don't do this, but we
Speaker 1: should do this because we're so bad. Because the people
Speaker 1: that claim that America so bad, who were in charge
Speaker 1: of it, by destroying that commonality, by destroying that common history,
Speaker 1: create the grounds for reforming America in the image that
Speaker 1: they see fit. First, they have to wipe away. This
Speaker 1: is what in revolutions happens all the time. I mean,
Speaker 1: you go back to the French Revolution. There's a reason
Speaker 1: that they were changing the language. There's a reason they
Speaker 1: came up with a new calendar, and they tried to
Speaker 1: replace religion with a church of reason. What does this
Speaker 1: all sound like? I mean, you can draw this thread
Speaker 1: of ideological, ideological and ethical similarity from the French Revolution,
Speaker 1: through the Soviet Revolution nineteen seventeen, all the way through
Speaker 1: to democrats in their ideology and their claims today. Oh,
Speaker 1: it's at speaking about this. I mentioned this piece on Taiebie.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry this piece that Taiebe wrote. Who again might
Speaker 1: even be horrified that somebody as right wing as me
Speaker 1: is giving him a shout out on their national radio show.
Speaker 1: But it's a very good piece. Here's here's one thing
Speaker 1: he says. This is about the making fun of Joe Biden.
Speaker 1: Part of this, the most Soviet of the recent efforts,
Speaker 1: didn't have a classically Soviet headline. He writes. Comedians are
Speaker 1: struggling to parody Biden. Let's hope it doesn't last. This
Speaker 1: was a Washington Post opinion piece by Richard Zoglin arguing
Speaker 1: that Biden is the first president in generations who might
Speaker 1: be impervious to impressionists. Zoglin contended Biden is impregnable to parody,
Speaker 1: too devoid of obvious quirks. Two muted and self effacing
Speaker 1: in his manner to offer comedians much to work with.
Speaker 1: I mean, you've got to be you've got to be
Speaker 1: kidding me, right. This this is the guy who here
Speaker 1: you go, This is the guy who who says all
Speaker 1: kinds of things. Why why you take it in? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why?
Speaker 1: Why you're getting nervous? Man? And Cornpop was a bad
Speaker 1: dude and he ran a bunch of bad boys. I'm
Speaker 1: not center. I don't like it. Let him go, Let'll go.
Speaker 1: The reason why I'm run is because I've been around
Speaker 1: a long time and I have no more than most
Speaker 1: people's house, and I hadn't get things done. That's why
Speaker 1: I'm running. And you want to check my shape on?
Speaker 1: Let's do push us together, man, let's do this. Let
Speaker 1: mendel caucus. No you haven't. You're a lion, dog faced
Speaker 1: pony soldier. You said you are. Make sure the television
Speaker 1: excuse me, make sure you have the record player on
Speaker 1: at night, the phone and show he's up on the board,
Speaker 1: would list him. I said, hey, Esther, you off the board.
Speaker 1: I'll come up and drag you off. We all these
Speaker 1: truths to be self evident. Oh man, I'm a creative
Speaker 1: by go you know the you know the thing. Poor
Speaker 1: kids are just as bright and just as twn as
Speaker 1: white kids. I'm beginning to see why your wife left you.
Speaker 1: And he cut off a six foot and left the chain.
Speaker 1: He fulled up. He said, you walk out with that chain,
Speaker 1: and you walked to the car and say you may
Speaker 1: cut me, man, but I'm gonna wrap this chain around
Speaker 1: your head. If you agree with me, go to Joe
Speaker 1: three O three three oh and help me in this fight. Yeah.
Speaker 1: No jokes to be made about that guy, totally totally
Speaker 1: squared away, nothing to say about him other than what
Speaker 1: a genius he is. This is the American media today,
Speaker 1: and it is the sovietization of the American press. It's embarrassing.
Speaker 1: It's embarrassing, Tybee writes reality and Soviet news because the
Speaker 1: guy actually spent type, spent a lot of time in
Speaker 1: Russia and actually knows this country was one hundred percent binary,
Speaker 1: with all the people either heroes or villains. Ninety five
Speaker 1: percent of most issues of Pravda or Izvestia. We're just
Speaker 1: names of party leaders surrounded by a list of applause
Speaker 1: words like fullhearted, wise, mighty, and courageous, and then he
Speaker 1: gives you. Some of the headlines in the US press
Speaker 1: lately sounds suspiciously like this kind of work. Biden's historic
Speaker 1: victory for America, Biden's stimulus showers money on American sharply
Speaker 1: cutting poverty. That was okay, end quote there. That was
Speaker 1: from the Washington Post. That's not a DNC press release.
Speaker 1: We're not supposed to notice. And this is liberal leftism
Speaker 1: today is a is the demand that you not notice.
Speaker 1: You were not allowed to see things as they are.
Speaker 1: You're not allowed to notice things. Oh, that's what's happening there. Oh,
Speaker 1: that's what that person's doing it. Shut up. Here's the
Speaker 1: allowable narrative. And if you don't go along with it,
Speaker 1: we'll get you fired from your job, we'll shut you
Speaker 1: off from the major communications platforms, will ruin your reputation,
Speaker 1: and we'll destroy your life. You are not allowed to
Speaker 1: notice things. Do you see any chance that maybe that
Speaker 1: guidance changes between now in the summer where you say, okay,
Speaker 1: everyone is vaccinated, the trends are looking good. We're going
Speaker 1: to open it up beyond small gatherings by the fourth
Speaker 1: of July. You know, that's entirely conceivable and possible that
Speaker 1: that was happening. What the President was saying is that
Speaker 1: we traditionally have at the fourth of July, the kind
Speaker 1: of barbecue in the backyard, the kind of things that
Speaker 1: we treasure as Americans as part of our tradition. He
Speaker 1: was saying, we're going to have that if we do
Speaker 1: all the things that he mentioned, if we go beyond that,
Speaker 1: because we have such a low level of infection, all
Speaker 1: the better for it. I don't believe he's ruling that out.
Speaker 1: He's saying, this is at least what we're going to
Speaker 1: be able to do by the fourth of July. And
Speaker 1: I think it's a quite reasonable trajection. I think Fauci
Speaker 1: is a quite delusional weirdo. That's what I think. I
Speaker 1: think Fauci needs to retire. Somebody explained this to me.
Speaker 1: So somebody explained this to me. I'm really curious because
Speaker 1: all all you have to know about doctor Fauci, in
Speaker 1: my opinion, is that with all of his reversals and
Speaker 1: his wrong proclamations, he has not upset the lockdown left
Speaker 1: one time, not once. How is that possible. How is
Speaker 1: it possible that, at no stage during this pandemic that
Speaker 1: and not a single place you know, whether it was
Speaker 1: on the school's question, or masks or double masks, or
Speaker 1: lockdown duration or indoor dining outdoor dining. I have never
Speaker 1: seen the Democrat consentists in the media or the Democrat
Speaker 1: Party turn on Fauci for a single day. How is
Speaker 1: that possible? He hasn't upset them once, not a single
Speaker 1: time he had to say to them, you know, hey, guys,
Speaker 1: turns out that, you know, shutting down schools for in
Speaker 1: person learning is actually a stupid and kind of cowardly
Speaker 1: thing to do. No, never, never, that's because he's a
Speaker 1: little leftist bureaucrat. That's why. That is the reality. And
Speaker 1: sure enough, what we see here is him continuing to
Speaker 1: be in this role. I'm gonna tell you something right now.
Speaker 1: We may have wintertime COVID in twenty twenty one, So
Speaker 1: we either decide that enough is enough or we continue
Speaker 1: to have our lives up ended by this feckless little bureaucrat.
Speaker 1: That those are the choices, And I don't know what
Speaker 1: it's going to take to get us we either have.
Speaker 1: I thought we would get to mass civil disobedience from
Speaker 1: this idiocy much sooner than we have, and maybe still
Speaker 1: people because they're so frightened. Everyone's been so scared. I mean,
Speaker 1: if you're if you're under fifty and you have a
Speaker 1: functioning immune system, really, if you're under sixty and you
Speaker 1: have a functioning immune system. And I'm just gonna say this,
Speaker 1: and I do not say this to be unkind at all. Look,
Speaker 1: I've put on a lot of weight during the pandemic.
Speaker 1: I know what it's like. But also weight is a
Speaker 1: very serious risk factor for all this do. But if
Speaker 1: you're not at substantial risk based on the factors of age,
Speaker 1: weight and the other comorbidities that can exist that we
Speaker 1: know exists in the data, you don't have to live
Speaker 1: your life with extreme caution. You can live your life
Speaker 1: with very little caution actually, and it's okay. And the
Speaker 1: rest of the population, I do I agree with Trump.
Speaker 1: I think should get vaccinated and should take those take
Speaker 1: those steps of additional safety. But we got to get
Speaker 1: back to normal life. But if we allow the little
Speaker 1: tyrant Fauci to continue to beat his voice, you know, okay,
Speaker 1: I mean, how much more was it gonna take? You
Speaker 1: can have six people, not eight people, six people at
Speaker 1: at you know, Fourth of July party outside for thirty
Speaker 1: minutes at a time that's safe. I mean, we've seen
Speaker 1: that level of stupidity with shutting down restaurants. We had
Speaker 1: we had a curfew in New York at ten pm.
Speaker 1: I was chased out of restaurants like I was trying
Speaker 1: to They caught me trying to steal a t bone
Speaker 1: steak in my in my handbag or something not that
Speaker 1: I have a handbagger in my book back whatever. You
Speaker 1: get what I'm saying. They chased me out like a
Speaker 1: thief at ten o'clock because it's the curfew time. I mean,
Speaker 1: how much dumber are we going to get folks before
Speaker 1: we say we're just not going to listen to these
Speaker 1: people anymore. So why would this television character spend so
Speaker 1: much time I'm on a show throwing shaded vaccines, feeding
Speaker 1: the fears a half of Republican men who say they
Speaker 1: do not plan to take it. This television character likes
Speaker 1: to say he's just asking questions. So here are some questions.
Speaker 1: Does this character think it's important to slow the spread
Speaker 1: of the virus? Just asking? Does this character care if
Speaker 1: the country reaches hurt immunity to return to life and
Speaker 1: work safely. Hey, it's a question does Tucker Carlson really
Speaker 1: want his viewers to live? Look this guy bemoans so
Speaker 1: called cancel culture more than anyone on earth. But he
Speaker 1: should look in the mirror because you can't get any
Speaker 1: more canceled than dead. Oh my gosh, Burman over at CNN,
Speaker 1: I got it, man, Don't don't poke the bear man,
Speaker 1: don't poke the sleeping dragon. Here. You're gonna you're gonna
Speaker 1: get lit up on Tucker's show. And he's got about
Speaker 1: five six times the audience you do, Burman. So just
Speaker 1: slow your role there, buddy. Oh my gosh. You know
Speaker 1: it doesn't part of it. It's like, okay, he wants
Speaker 1: to step into the Tucker Thunderdome by all means. But
Speaker 1: notice the way that he sets this up. It's that
Speaker 1: Tucker is somehow being reckless or dishonest by asking questions
Speaker 1: about the vaccine. Meanwhile, in reality world, there are large
Speaker 1: European countries that have decided that they're going to stop
Speaker 1: the distribution of the astra Zenica vaccine because of blood clots. Now,
Speaker 1: let's just first say I believe the vaccines from what
Speaker 1: I've seen, are safe and effective and should be taken.
Speaker 1: The vaccines that arevailable in this country for everything that
Speaker 1: I've read. I am not a doctor, but I can
Speaker 1: read and I can think, and it seems the vaccines
Speaker 1: are safe and effective for people without really without any
Speaker 1: major questions or downsides about that. The issue here is
Speaker 1: there are a lot of people that are saying, I'm
Speaker 1: at really low risk and I'm not coming too contact
Speaker 1: with seniors. So why should I get the vaccine if
Speaker 1: I can't go back to normal life, which is the
Speaker 1: moronic decision that faucin the others have said, you gotta
Speaker 1: still mask, You gotta still wear a mask even after
Speaker 1: the vaccinated. What so ninety five percent protection isn't enough.
Speaker 1: I gotta get what one hundred percent protection? A risk
Speaker 1: free society is a nightmare, and it's not even achievable,
Speaker 1: but it's a nightmare to even try to get there.
Speaker 1: And Tucker is asking questions about the vaccine because there
Speaker 1: are things that are happening in the world that are
Speaker 1: making people wonder, well, what the heck is going on?
Speaker 1: And also let's ask this question, should children get it?
Speaker 1: From what we know, children are at almost zero risk
Speaker 1: and very unlikely to spread it. So we're gonna inject
Speaker 1: everyone's how old you know they make two year olds
Speaker 1: mask up on planes. Now apparently they're gonna make every
Speaker 1: two year old and up get a vaccine for COVID.
Speaker 1: I mean, how many kids have already been exposed to
Speaker 1: COVID and we have no idea and they've they've cleared
Speaker 1: it and now they have immunity. Also understand that if
Speaker 1: we if we cave into this mentality that we have
Speaker 1: to have a zero risk profile for COVID. I've started
Speaker 1: to say this before. We are going there's going to
Speaker 1: be COVID this summer. There's going to be COVID and
Speaker 1: even an increase in cases by early next next late
Speaker 1: next fall, early next winter. It's going to happen. It's
Speaker 1: not going to be as bad as it was this
Speaker 1: time around. Hopefully it'll be far, far, far lower, but
Speaker 1: there will be a recurrence of COVID nineteen. We're not
Speaker 1: going to be at all at high en. I've heard
Speaker 1: immunity that it's like measles, where you have, you know,
Speaker 1: a handful of cases here and there and that's it.
Speaker 1: Are we gonna lock down again? Are we going to
Speaker 1: do this again? We should be having these discussions. How
Speaker 1: much is too much? For the efforts to slow the spread,
Speaker 1: like the Bourbon Guide goes, does Tuck or even want
Speaker 1: his audience to live? I'm pretty sure Tucker wants his
Speaker 1: fellow human beings and particular his audience to live. Yes,
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure about that one. But in Europe, to
Speaker 1: give you a sense of what an unaccountable bureaucracy is like, remember,
Speaker 1: the EU is involved in making a lot of these
Speaker 1: decisions and this country, as this country is, elite media
Speaker 1: has a love affair with European bureaucracy. We're always led
Speaker 1: to believe, Oh, if only the Democrats were in full
Speaker 1: control and didn't have these pesky republicans around, our country
Speaker 1: would run like a Swiss watch, although of course Switzerland
Speaker 1: is not part of the EU, but our country would
Speaker 1: run like Denmark, right, Our country would would be this
Speaker 1: really efficient, healthy, happy place. Well, it's interesting because our
Speaker 1: country is obviously a lot larger than Denmark. And when
Speaker 1: you look at the EU, which is a super country
Speaker 1: in a sense, but it is in many ways similar
Speaker 1: to the US, and that there are states, right, there
Speaker 1: are member states of the EU. The EU has been
Speaker 1: really problematic on getting people vaccinated, and his way behind
Speaker 1: the US in fact, well, this is from a Christina
Speaker 1: hoff Summers, who's a an academic, one of these academics
Speaker 1: that's made a name from herself for herself by by
Speaker 1: asking questions that should be asked and trying to give
Speaker 1: honest answers to them. If you do that these days
Speaker 1: in academia, you are a rebel. You are somebody who well,
Speaker 1: first of all, you're not going to be an academy
Speaker 1: for very long. She's actually well, now she's a scholar
Speaker 1: at AEI, but she was a fali. Yeah, like I
Speaker 1: didn't even know that. And sure enough, I'm telling you're
Speaker 1: not going to be an academia for long, and she wasn't.
Speaker 1: They had to push her out. And here's what she shared.
Speaker 1: And this is making the rounds. It's a Q and
Speaker 1: A about Europe's vaccines. Okay, this is from Christina hoff
Speaker 1: Summer's Twitter account. Question why haven't we been vaccinated already? Answer?
Speaker 1: Because the European Commission procured vaccine centrally and wanted to
Speaker 1: show it could get better terms and lower prices, and
Speaker 1: that took time. The UK signed with Astra Zenica three
Speaker 1: months earlier than the EU, for example, so it had
Speaker 1: another three months to fix glitches in production. Question did
Speaker 1: the EU get lower prices? Answer? Yes, and more deaths
Speaker 1: and longer lockdowns that cost much more than the more
Speaker 1: expensive vaccines. And there were glitches at astra Zenica's factory
Speaker 1: in Belgium. Question but doesn't astra Zenica have another vaccine
Speaker 1: factory in Halleck's in the Netherlands. Yes, but that factory
Speaker 1: does not have regulatory approval to supply Europe. Gosh, but
Speaker 1: couldn't their US factory sell the Europe Yes. AstraZeneca has
Speaker 1: three million unused doses in a warehouse in Ohio that
Speaker 1: it wants to send to Europe, but the US does
Speaker 1: not allow it. Fair enough, I guess President Biden wants
Speaker 1: the doses for Americans. No, he bans Americans from using them,
Speaker 1: and the US regulatory process will take at least a month.
Speaker 1: Oh dear, okay, so just roll out the few vaccines
Speaker 1: we have in Europe then, sorry. European governments are suspending
Speaker 1: it now since some who got the JAB developed blood clots,
Speaker 1: more people than would have developed blood clots in a
Speaker 1: similar population anyway, No fewer actually, so there is no
Speaker 1: indication that vaccines caused it. According to the European Medicines Agency.
Speaker 1: But that's the precautionary principle for you. We don't accept
Speaker 1: any risks because this potential side effect would be worse
Speaker 1: than COVID nineteen oh. No, we are talking of fewer
Speaker 1: than ten deaths from blood clots, while delaying COVID vaccination
Speaker 1: by just a week will probably kill thousands. So we
Speaker 1: have to accept certain disease in death because you worry
Speaker 1: about a minimal risk of something that would in any
Speaker 1: case be much less dangerous. Yes, we just want to
Speaker 1: keep you safe. You're welcome. This is what Christina Huff
Speaker 1: Summers shared on her on her Twitter account of Q
Speaker 1: and A about what's going on. I would I would
Speaker 1: cite exactly where where it comes from, but I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't know. But it's making the rounds and it's
Speaker 1: all it's all accurate on the facts. It's all accurate
Speaker 1: about what's going on right now. And that's that's really
Speaker 1: also a snapshot in the mentality of the people that
Speaker 1: are making all these decisions. They will keep you safe.
Speaker 1: The health bureaucrats will keep you safe even if it
Speaker 1: kills you. That's really the that's really the way they
Speaker 1: come down on this one. Sure, there's only a one
Speaker 1: in a million chance that you're actually gonna, you know,
Speaker 1: actually gonna get some kind of side effect that might
Speaker 1: kill you from the vaccine. We can't let you take
Speaker 1: that chance. You might get COVID and die from it
Speaker 1: in the meantime, but we can't let you take that chance,
Speaker 1: that one in a million shot. The regulators won't allow it.
Speaker 1: This is what happens when you have bureaucrats, particularly a
Speaker 1: health bureaucracy, making decisions for you. People that are not
Speaker 1: accountable for you and that are not accountable to you
Speaker 1: don't care what happens to you. And this is what
Speaker 1: I think so many I've forgotten all this, doctor Fauci.
Speaker 1: Whether you live or die does not matter. To doctor Fauci.
Speaker 1: You are just a number. You are just as statistic.
Speaker 1: Whether your business thrives or survives or fails does not
Speaker 1: matter to him. He does not care. You are just
Speaker 1: numbers on a board to him, and he's already decided
Speaker 1: for political reasons which numbers matter more. So, don't ever
Speaker 1: forget this. It's happening over in Europe with the AstraZeneca vaccine,
Speaker 1: but it's also a situation that's playing out in this
Speaker 1: country right now with our lockdown policies. One thing I
Speaker 1: will say, the Washington Post did a correction. A lot
Speaker 1: of pressure was put on them, but they did a
Speaker 1: correction because they realized what they did was wrong. So
Speaker 1: now you have to find out was it the Washington
Speaker 1: Post fault or the people that run the elections in Georgia,
Speaker 1: Because the people that run the elections in Georgia, they
Speaker 1: have to be looked at, whether it was a Secretary
Speaker 1: of State or frankly, the governor of the state. Things
Speaker 1: went on there between the presidential election, which I can
Speaker 1: tell you about, or you look at the two Senate elections.
Speaker 1: That is such a shame that that happened. Everything that
Speaker 1: you've been talking about on your show today is affected
Speaker 1: by those two seats. Those two seats are devastating that
Speaker 1: we lost, and the Republicans, frankly, were fighting for six
Speaker 1: hundred dollars versus two thousand dollars and that was the
Speaker 1: only add that the Democrats took. That was a disaster.
Speaker 1: They should not have been doing that. Mitch McConnell made
Speaker 1: a tremendous mistake. He lost those two seats. It was
Speaker 1: a huge mistake. I mean, can you imagine what could
Speaker 1: be a more obvious political move than at a time
Speaker 1: of crisis, when both parties have decided that there is
Speaker 1: a real need for the government to send financial assistance
Speaker 1: to people who have been crushed by government mandated lockdowns
Speaker 1: and shutdowns of the economy. Why would you want to
Speaker 1: be the party that says, well, we're gonna give you
Speaker 1: less money when you're trying to win an election. I mean,
Speaker 1: I know this is just cold hard politics, but let's
Speaker 1: be serious about this, folks. That was disastrous, But there's
Speaker 1: really Republicans almost have like a like a fetish about
Speaker 1: how they like to pretend they care about the debt,
Speaker 1: but only at certain times, and sometimes the most inopportune
Speaker 1: moment is when they decide to flex on caring about
Speaker 1: the debt. That's when they decide, yeah, I'm a deficit
Speaker 1: or debt hawk. Not a good one, not a good
Speaker 1: time to do this. So Trump is right about that
Speaker 1: losing those two Georgia Senate seats was disastrous. It was
Speaker 1: really really that is also true. We've got that now
Speaker 1: we're dealing with the consequence of that all the time.
Speaker 1: I told you, if we if we just maintained the Senate,
Speaker 1: you basically have gridlock, you'd have Biden, you know, shuffling
Speaker 1: around going or anything about the thing and the cornpop guy.
Speaker 1: I talk to him and I said, hey, man, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna take this chain I got, I got kids talking
Speaker 1: about the blonde hairs on my legs. I don't know
Speaker 1: why Joe Biden all of a sudden sometimes sounds like
Speaker 1: he's from some other part of the country, but it's
Speaker 1: really just an old man who yells from Delaware. It's remarkable,
Speaker 1: isn't it. But while we're all sitting around trying to
Speaker 1: figure out what we're gonna do about the possibility of
Speaker 1: the elimination of the filibuster and what Democrats will get
Speaker 1: if they can get whatever they want, which is what
Speaker 1: would happen if you elimited the filibuster, it's tough not
Speaker 1: to feel a little bit of a little bit of
Speaker 1: a twinge of ouch when we think about how we
Speaker 1: lost two Georgia Senates. We lost the state of Georgia
Speaker 1: in the presidential election, which is obviously really disconcerting, but
Speaker 1: then we lost to Georgia seats on the Senate, and
Speaker 1: you know, we only had to go one for two,
Speaker 1: we'd be in pretty good shape. We lost them both.
Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell is the only thing Mitch McConnell seems to
Speaker 1: do right is judges. I mean, that's it. Mitch McConnell
Speaker 1: is good on judges and everything else. It really feels
Speaker 1: like cocaine. Mitch. You don't know what you're gonna get.
Speaker 1: You know what you're gonna get. Oh, and when Trump
Speaker 1: brought up the phone call, remember he had a phone
Speaker 1: call in December, and then there was the Washington Post
Speaker 1: story on that phone call in January and somebody was
Speaker 1: an anonymous source about what Trump said on that phone call,
Speaker 1: and it was a lie. It turns out it was
Speaker 1: Georgia Deputy Secretary of State Jordan fuc h S. I
Speaker 1: don't want to say that on producer Mark Right, that's
Speaker 1: not that's not safe. That's not radio safe. There's no
Speaker 1: way you pronounce it the way that you think you're
Speaker 1: pronouncing it. You know what I'm saying. But I mean,
Speaker 1: I can't, Jordan fuc h S, I can't do it, man.
Speaker 1: It's too close, it's too close to the line. I
Speaker 1: don't want to get a violation. I get it. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, so we'll just say miss fuc
Speaker 1: h s here. Uh, you know, apparently gives zero fuc
Speaker 1: h s. Is about being truthful? You like that, producer, Mark,
Speaker 1: well done, I'll give it to you. Thank you. So
Speaker 1: she she lied about what Trump said on the call,
Speaker 1: and now everyone's saying, why would you do that? But
Speaker 1: here's the thing. You gotta remember the people who really
Speaker 1: of everybody who hates Trump in some ways the republic,
Speaker 1: there are Republicans who are the top of the list
Speaker 1: because for them, the Republican Party was just always a
Speaker 1: means to an end. It's about them. It's about how
Speaker 1: it advances their interests, about how it makes them more prominent,
Speaker 1: more powerful, in some cases even more wealthy. And Trump
Speaker 1: stuck his thumb in the eye the establishment. There are people,
Speaker 1: I mean, there are these never Trump, are still out
Speaker 1: there for whom getting even with Trump or tearing him
Speaker 1: down was the most important thing, more important even than
Speaker 1: supporting the GOP in a bitter election dispute, more important
Speaker 1: than speaking just honestly to the press about it. Oh,
Speaker 1: one more thing. Because the Trumpster decided that he was
Speaker 1: going to call into Fox, is he going to run again?
Speaker 1: Play sixteen. Well, based on every poll, they want me
Speaker 1: to run again. But we're going to take a look
Speaker 1: and we'll see. We have first steps. First, we have
Speaker 1: to see what we can do with the House. I
Speaker 1: think we have a very very good chance of taking
Speaker 1: back the House. That we did a great job. You
Speaker 1: know you're gonna lose from fifteen to twenty five seats.
Speaker 1: The last time I got involved, I worked very hard.
Speaker 1: I made tremendous amounts of meeting, speeches and teleconferences and
Speaker 1: everything else. For fifty six of them. I had fifty
Speaker 1: six basic teleconferences with thousands of people on the line
Speaker 1: on each one. And what happened is we ended up
Speaker 1: winning fifteen states instead of losing potentially twenty five seats.
Speaker 1: That's a big story, and it almost costs Nancy Pelosia job.
Speaker 1: I think we have a chance of taking back the House.
Speaker 1: I think we have a chance to do better in
Speaker 1: the Senate. We need leadership in the Senate, which frankly,
Speaker 1: we don't have. We need better leadership in the Senate.
Speaker 1: You have a good chance to take back to Senate,
Speaker 1: and frankly, we'll make our decision after that. Not throw
Speaker 1: his hat in, not say any WoT get ready for
Speaker 1: more of that. Let me ask you about Governor Cuomo
Speaker 1: of New York. I know you said you want the
Speaker 1: investigation to continue. If the investation confirms the claims of
Speaker 1: the women, should he resign? Yeah, I think you probably
Speaker 1: end up being prosecuted too. But how about right now,
Speaker 1: and you've said you want the investigation to continue. You
Speaker 1: saw Chuck Schumer, Senator Schumer, Senator Jellabrand, majority of the
Speaker 1: congressional delegation don't think he can be an effective governor
Speaker 1: right now? Ken, He sir, that's a judgment for them
Speaker 1: to make about their story. They can be effective. Here's
Speaker 1: my position. That's been my position. Sensor wrote to Violence
Speaker 1: Kins Women Act. A woman should be presumed to telling
Speaker 1: the truth and should not be scapegoated and become victimized
Speaker 1: by her coming forward number one. But there should be
Speaker 1: an investigation to determine whether what she says it is true.
Speaker 1: That's what's going on now. That's a different standard than
Speaker 1: what they tried to use to destroy Brett Cavanaugh. I
Speaker 1: want to be very clear about this, and I haven't
Speaker 1: forgotten that, and I certainly haven't forgiven that either the
Speaker 1: attempted character assassination of Brett Kavanaugh was one of the
Speaker 1: ugliest things I've ever seen in American politics and something
Speaker 1: that I will never forget because it really showed the
Speaker 1: true nature and character of the Democrat Party that they
Speaker 1: were willing to subvert decency and truth and fairness and
Speaker 1: honesty in the name of those things. Really almost satanic
Speaker 1: in the approach. I mean, just take what is good
Speaker 1: and virtuous and true and flip it upside down and
Speaker 1: act like you've done everybody a favor. It was awful
Speaker 1: what they did to Kavanaugh, but it is fascinating now
Speaker 1: to see how they recognize this is not a standard
Speaker 1: that you can actually keep. I mean, you cannot have
Speaker 1: a believe all women standard because, for one, just like men,
Speaker 1: women are capable of lying. And also beyond that, just
Speaker 1: like everything else, people need to have their due process rights.
Speaker 1: People need that they're entitled to that. And there's a
Speaker 1: reason why even in English common law. Mean, you can
Speaker 1: take this back a very long way and you find
Speaker 1: out that this is this is an essential foundational concept
Speaker 1: for a free society, because otherwise we're all just subject
Speaker 1: to destruction at the whims of those who have ugly motives.
Speaker 1: Now that all set, Yeah, I think Cuomo did the
Speaker 1: things that he's accused of doing. I think it's interesting
Speaker 1: that Biden says that he may be prosecuted because our
Speaker 1: terminology around these things and the way we'll talk about
Speaker 1: the Cuomo allegations, as people will say that, well, it's
Speaker 1: sexual misconduct. Yeah, that spans a very wide array of things.
Speaker 1: That the sexual misconduct could cover a whole lot of territory.
Speaker 1: So it's so broad, it's so vague, it's so non
Speaker 1: specific as to be sometimes it's not very useful in
Speaker 1: discussions about this, right, sexual misconduct? Is that an unwanted comment?
Speaker 1: Or is it groping somebody? And I think you see
Speaker 1: how this can this can expand this can get much.
Speaker 1: You know that this can be a problem when when
Speaker 1: you have someone like Biden say that, you know, Cuomo
Speaker 1: could be prosecuted. I mean, I haven't heard of any
Speaker 1: criminal conduct. Maybe there's one woman that says that he
Speaker 1: kind of like grabbed her a little bit. I don't
Speaker 1: think he groped her in a private area. He grabbed
Speaker 1: her on the back or something to take a photo.
Speaker 1: I mean, well, you're gonna send someone to prison for this?
Speaker 1: I mean you know, everybody's kind of you know, grabby
Speaker 1: uncle at every wedding they've ever been to, or something
Speaker 1: is going to go to prison. You don't go to
Speaker 1: prison for that. Inappropriate behavior from a boss is something
Speaker 1: that the boss should either get fired for or have
Speaker 1: to step down for. But to say that this is criminal. Look,
Speaker 1: and you know, I'm no I'm no Cuomo fan, but
Speaker 1: I do see something going on here. I think he's
Speaker 1: guilty of the harassment at the comments. I think he's
Speaker 1: a gross guy, and he's a bully in fact here
Speaker 1: even as worse, this was really interesting. Cuomo's vaccine. I
Speaker 1: want to return to this point, but first you have
Speaker 1: this is the Guardian. Cuomo's vaccines are pleased to support governor,
Speaker 1: Please to support governor, raise ethical concerns. This was just
Speaker 1: a couple of days ago in the Guardian, a British paper,
Speaker 1: but same idea. The coronavirus vaccinations are for the New
Speaker 1: York Governor. Andrew Cuomo made appeals for political support for
Speaker 1: the embattled politician, prompting ethical concerns. According to multiple media
Speaker 1: reports on Sunday, New York's vaccinations are longtime Cuomo aide
Speaker 1: Larry Schwartz reportedly pivoted in at least one telephone conversation
Speaker 1: with the county executive from a discussion of vaccination policy
Speaker 1: directly to an appeal for support for Cuomo. Schwartz has
Speaker 1: denied mixing political and policy calls are acting improperly. So
Speaker 1: I just want to know that's that's how serious things
Speaker 1: have gotten here for Cuomo. That now it's it's even
Speaker 1: it's it's credible that somebody acting on Cuomo's behalf may
Speaker 1: have been pushing for Hey, you know, nice vaccine program
Speaker 1: he got there. It's a shame. It's something that happens
Speaker 1: to it if you don't support Cuomo. You know, this
Speaker 1: is fascinating that this is what we've come to. And
Speaker 1: I know that they deny it, but the fact that
Speaker 1: it's even believable about this guy just goes to show
Speaker 1: you what a bully he is, what a jerk he is,
Speaker 1: and just a just a bad guy all around. But
Speaker 1: then there's the other part of me with this whole thing,
Speaker 1: and I gotta say this, they're so dug in, they're
Speaker 1: so focused on taking down Cuomo on the issue of
Speaker 1: harassing women, in my opinion, because they don't want to
Speaker 1: focus on the nursing home disaster. No, why is that, Well,
Speaker 1: it's because the nursing home disaster goes to Democrat policy.
Speaker 1: The nursing home disaster is something where you'd have to say,
Speaker 1: hold on a second. It's not only just New York
Speaker 1: that did this. Also New Jersey's Governor Murphy not quite
Speaker 1: to the same extent, but made a similarly egregiously stupid
Speaker 1: and possibly le likely lethal decision. And we were told
Speaker 1: the beginning. I remember when it was the Red states
Speaker 1: that we're going to get hit by COVID and not
Speaker 1: the Blue states. You remember that people were actually saying
Speaker 1: that all over the place. Oh, the Red States they
Speaker 1: don't take science seriously. So it's the blue states that
Speaker 1: are going to be doing really well because they listen
Speaker 1: to the science. And now we've seen what are the
Speaker 1: worst states for COVID. We've run the experiment for the
Speaker 1: full year. What are the worst states per capita for COVID?
Speaker 1: New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Rhode Island. This is the
Speaker 1: worst states for COVID. Isn't that interesting? What do all
Speaker 1: those states have in common? Pennsylvania's right up there too,
Speaker 1: But what do all those states have in common, not
Speaker 1: Republicans in control, not people who are masked deniers running
Speaker 1: the health board or the local government. But they don't
Speaker 1: want to pay attention to that. Here's the problem for Democrats.
Speaker 1: Not only do they want to avoid the public figuring
Speaker 1: out how wrong they were about COVID, because it's a
Speaker 1: bad look for it. When I say wrong about COVID,
Speaker 1: I mean about lockdowns and mass restrictions and all these
Speaker 1: other things. That's a bad look. They just feel silly,
Speaker 1: look stupid. They want to keep the power to do
Speaker 1: this going forward. They won't go into a full on
Speaker 1: lockdown in these states, but they will try to have restrictions.
Speaker 1: You know they'll they'll go back. Do they love this? Oh,
Speaker 1: you can't have a hundred people in your restaurant, you know,
Speaker 1: only seventy five. Or you can't and have you know,
Speaker 1: ten people in this room only eight? You know they're
Speaker 1: gonna start. This is their new the new world they
Speaker 1: think we're all living in, where bureaucrats for your health
Speaker 1: can make whatever arbitrary, annoying restriction on you that they
Speaker 1: feel like, and all in the name of COVID nineteen,
Speaker 1: all in the name of saving you from a virus.
Speaker 1: They're not going to give that up there. They're not
Speaker 1: going to say enough's enough of that. And so that's
Speaker 1: why they can't allow the narrative around Cuomo to be
Speaker 1: that he's a disaster on the nursing homes. It's all
Speaker 1: about the sexual harassment stuff, because they also are all
Speaker 1: patting themselves on the back for saying, oh, look, we're
Speaker 1: doing stories on him. We've uncovered the sexual harassment, don't
Speaker 1: you see, We've uncovered the sexual harassment. Whereas on the
Speaker 1: other side of it, they were holding him up as
Speaker 1: the paragon of COVID fighting virtue, and that whiplash for
Speaker 1: the public maybe too much. That shift in thinking might
Speaker 1: actually settle into with some people. And they realized, hold
Speaker 1: on a second, the media elige was the media were
Speaker 1: wrong about this guy in a profound way, and they
Speaker 1: should lose credibility. They should be held to account for
Speaker 1: this as well. Well. The chief proponent of this and
Speaker 1: and forgive me, this is just objective truth. The chief
Speaker 1: proponent of this recall petition supports putting microchips into migrants,
Speaker 1: into immigrants. The other proponents, the chief, the top ten proponents,
Speaker 1: the people that are behind this are members of the
Speaker 1: three percenters, the right wing militia group the Proud Boys
Speaker 1: supported the insurrection, are folks that quite literally enthusiastically support
Speaker 1: QAnon conspiracies. And so that's the origin here. Now as
Speaker 1: it relates to the people that signed this petition, it
Speaker 1: just takes one quarter of people that supported Donald Trump
Speaker 1: to put a petition and the ballot, or rather recall
Speaker 1: on the ballot. We're one of just nineteen states in
Speaker 1: the country that allows this process, but we have the
Speaker 1: lowest threshold in America. And of course you're all very familiar.
Speaker 1: We had a recall not too many years ago, in
Speaker 1: two thousand and three, and so Whip. It goes to
Speaker 1: your original question, am I worried about Of course I'm
Speaker 1: worried about it. The nature of these things, the upper
Speaker 1: down question is there some nature of the question is
Speaker 1: challenging and vexing, and so you know, we're taking it seriously.
Speaker 1: I have to do my job every single day. But
Speaker 1: I'm going to fight this thing because I'm gonna fight
Speaker 1: for California values and the things I hold dear. And
Speaker 1: I think the vast majority of Californians, regardless of their
Speaker 1: political stripeshold dear he's gonna fight for California values. Well,
Speaker 1: he makes sure that he just looks so suave and
Speaker 1: in command and control. Gavin Newsom out in California. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna fight for your California values, baby, this guy, I swear,
Speaker 1: it's amazing. Yeah, the Proud Boys and the three percenters.
Speaker 1: I think one percent is a reference to like biker
Speaker 1: gangs that are outlawed, biker gains. Well, I don't even
Speaker 1: I don't even know what a three percenter is, But anyway,
Speaker 1: a proud the Proud Boys, right wing militias in California
Speaker 1: are the reason that he's facing a really serious recall effort.
Speaker 1: That's what we're told. This is what this guy. This
Speaker 1: is what this guy's trying to sell. It's not the
Speaker 1: tents all over the streets of Los Angeles and the
Speaker 1: massive homeless crisis and the poop on the streets and
Speaker 1: the dirty needles, and it's not any of that in
Speaker 1: San France. In Los Angeles. Oh no, it's not incredibly
Speaker 1: high taxes with very low government accountability because the state
Speaker 1: government is entirely in the hands of Democrats. It's not
Speaker 1: the widening gap between the coastal elites and all their
Speaker 1: servants and and you know, cooks and the people that
Speaker 1: are doing all the menial tasks for them every day,
Speaker 1: who live more in the interior of the state. You know,
Speaker 1: you have extreme wealth for a mile or two hugging
Speaker 1: the coast all along California, and then you go into
Speaker 1: the interior, and especially in the urban areas, it gets
Speaker 1: more and more poor. And you know, people are voting
Speaker 1: with their feet. We all see what's happening. You are
Speaker 1: witnessing the collapse of the blue state welfare first model.
Speaker 1: You are seeing the the you know, the the Venezuela ization,
Speaker 1: if you will, from it from the perspective of the
Speaker 1: the extremely rich and the extremely poor. I mean, you're
Speaker 1: seeing a kind of a quasi socialist state and action
Speaker 1: in some of these places like California is a great
Speaker 1: example of it, because you have the ultra rich who
Speaker 1: are and now, of course Venezuela is all collapsing an anarchy,
Speaker 1: but you still have some very very rich people in Venezuela,
Speaker 1: and you have a whole lot of very very poor people.
Speaker 1: But you know, Latin America has long been defined by
Speaker 1: an incredible elite of wealth. That's one that's sort of
Speaker 1: one strand one band of society, and then you go
Speaker 1: below that and people are desperately poor, you know, really poor,
Speaker 1: not poor by our standards, really poor. Well, what you
Speaker 1: see in California is that people are realizing, hold on
Speaker 1: a second, I can do my job. I can work
Speaker 1: in my industry. Or maybe I'll just switch industries and
Speaker 1: live in Idaho, live in Texas, live in Florida with
Speaker 1: much lower taxes, much higher quality of life. And I
Speaker 1: don't have, you know, quite the same amount of you know,
Speaker 1: transgender sports, ideology, indoctrination in the local public schools. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's not quite as left wing in a lot of
Speaker 1: these places as it is in California. And people are
Speaker 1: saying they've had enough. And by the way, to the
Speaker 1: Californians listening, I don't we have a big audience in California.
Speaker 1: We've got KiB in Los Angeles and we've got people listening,
Speaker 1: and Sandy KFMB and San Diego, and you know, to
Speaker 1: the people that are in California who listen to this show,
Speaker 1: I just say, you know, I feel I feel your pain.
Speaker 1: I do though I do feel your pain because I'm
Speaker 1: in New York. Is the same thing here. We're at
Speaker 1: the losing end of this proposition of the great migration
Speaker 1: that's going on. We're at the losing end of what's
Speaker 1: actually happening in America today at the state level. People,
Speaker 1: I don't I don't want to keep paying a big
Speaker 1: chunk of my income to state and local government to
Speaker 1: live in New York City. I mean, I'm just gonna
Speaker 1: say that, I don't want to keep doing it. And
Speaker 1: theres you say, Buck, why don't you move? Well? I
Speaker 1: have you know, I have obligations here for work, and
Speaker 1: I got I'd have to set up things to do remote,
Speaker 1: and it's it's not as simple for me as it
Speaker 1: would be for some other people. My two brothers have
Speaker 1: already moved. They're in Florida. They're not coming back. They're gone.
Speaker 1: They By the way, w IOD Miami, you've got two
Speaker 1: Sexton brothers down there, so take good care of them. Okay,
Speaker 1: you've got two of the Sextons, and you might have more,
Speaker 1: all right, Producer Mark Bruce, and Mark likes Miami from
Speaker 1: what I understand, right, I do enjoy that Florida quite
Speaker 1: a bit. Yeah. Yeah, So for the WIOD listeners, you've
Speaker 1: already got almost half of the Sexton family down there,
Speaker 1: and you may get you may get more Sextons yet
Speaker 1: because they're loving it. They love they love the people,
Speaker 1: they love the food, they love the weather, and they
Speaker 1: definitely love the zero state income tax. What's the pitch
Speaker 1: why moved to New York or California right now? And
Speaker 1: remember those are the two Blue strongholds. The representation, the
Speaker 1: day to day representation of the Democrat model for American
Speaker 1: life is what you see in New York and in California,
Speaker 1: and Los Angeles and New York City are obviously the
Speaker 1: two biggest cities, the two biggest representations of that. And
Speaker 1: they're disasters right now. I mean they're they're just in
Speaker 1: a spiral, and a lot of it's really being held
Speaker 1: together with you know, spit and scotch tape at this point.
Speaker 1: The real estate market. I just spoke to a real
Speaker 1: estate broker yesterday here in New York and she said,
Speaker 1: everyone's pretend ending like things are getting better. She told
Speaker 1: me it's really not because people haven't come back. So
Speaker 1: they're keeping demand artificially low by not listing a lot
Speaker 1: of properties, a lot of rentals, a lot of sale
Speaker 1: properties for sale, properties that should be on the market
Speaker 1: because they realize if everyone sees what's out there, prices
Speaker 1: are going to collapse. I mean, that's what we're facing
Speaker 1: in New York. I can't speak to what's going on
Speaker 1: in California. Some KiB listeners can tell me. But we're
Speaker 1: talking about about the creation of artificial scarcity in the
Speaker 1: housing market so that the housing prices don't go down
Speaker 1: thirty or forty percent. And I think, you know, you
Speaker 1: could see that in these cities. And if that happens,
Speaker 1: then you get into a hold downward spiral because people
Speaker 1: started leaving tax base fleas can't pay the obligations you have.
Speaker 1: City government starts to shrivel up. You get into real
Speaker 1: problems and people who have said, well buck. But look
Speaker 1: at California and New York in the nineties, the early
Speaker 1: two thousands, huge success stories. I mean, to me, growing
Speaker 1: up as a kid watching movies as much as I
Speaker 1: did and everything else, California in the nineties was like paradise,
Speaker 1: you know, late eighties, early nineties, it just you know,
Speaker 1: you just wanted to be in California and Los Angeles
Speaker 1: and Diego. I grew up thinking I like New York
Speaker 1: a lot, but God, that's where people really haven't made Now.
Speaker 1: Those people are fleeing. They're showing up in Austin. What's up, KLBJ.
Speaker 1: They're showing up in Austin and saying, hey, you guys,
Speaker 1: got room for us here? And of course the conservatives
Speaker 1: in places like Texas are saying, can you please not
Speaker 1: inflict your big government, big big state policies here that
Speaker 1: ruined where you came from. Can you just do us
Speaker 1: that favor? Can you do us that sell? I think
Speaker 1: that's an entirely reasonable ask. However, I can't promise you
Speaker 1: that that's gonna that's gonna stick. I think we're all
Speaker 1: seeing what's actually gonna happen here, and it's the Blue
Speaker 1: states are gonna bleed over into the Red states. See
Speaker 1: no party like a Team Buck party, because a Team
Speaker 1: Buck party don't stop. It's time for roll call. Time
Speaker 1: for the roll call, everybody, Facebook dot com, slash Buck
Speaker 1: Sexton Team Buck at iHeartMedia dot com and let's get
Speaker 1: right into all the latest here. Oh make sure you
Speaker 1: go check in at Bucksxon dot com and got a
Speaker 1: piece up there on why the Democrats don't really want
Speaker 1: this border crisis to stop. They want to leverage the
Speaker 1: border crisis. They want to use it for their own purposes.
Speaker 1: And so there's that. And then I'm also trying to
Speaker 1: find a new show that I can really get excited about.
Speaker 1: I'm watching this show broad Church producer Mark, which is
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's about a murder of a kid,
Speaker 1: but then it's like a murder mystery, but then it
Speaker 1: kind of keeps going. It's very well acted, but very depressing.
Speaker 1: Do you have anything happy for me to watch? Happy
Speaker 1: for you to watch? Did I tell you about ted Lasso? No?
Speaker 1: What's ted Lasso? Ted Lasso is probably one of the
Speaker 1: best comedies I've seen. Honestly, I think I have told
Speaker 1: you about this. It's um the guy from SNL Fred No,
Speaker 1: not Fred Armiston, Jason Sadakis, I believe it is his name.
Speaker 1: He plays a soccer coach who has only ever coached
Speaker 1: American football before, and he goes over to coach a
Speaker 1: Premier League soccer team because the new owner of this
Speaker 1: team wants to get back at her ex husband and
Speaker 1: hire the worst coach possible, and he ends up being
Speaker 1: great and they win the league. I mean this sounds
Speaker 1: I mean spoiler alert, but that's okay. So this actually
Speaker 1: sounds this actually sounds right up my alley. So where
Speaker 1: do I watch this? This is on Apple TV. It's
Speaker 1: just an app. You don't have to buy any unit
Speaker 1: or anything. It's just like it's like Netflix. You just
Speaker 1: get an I'm sure you didn't. You just buy a
Speaker 1: new TV. I did just get a new team. There's
Speaker 1: no chance that the Smart TV does not have you
Speaker 1: can't download the Apple TV app. Yeah, I think it's
Speaker 1: gotta it's gotta work now, right, I mean, come on, yeah,
Speaker 1: I can. I I've also I've been looking for something
Speaker 1: to really zone out too. So I used to be
Speaker 1: all about Call of Duty on the PlayStation for platform,
Speaker 1: which that's right, I've gone. The pandemic has pushed me
Speaker 1: back into video games. I cannot. I cannot tell a lie. Um. Now,
Speaker 1: I've been playing this game called blood Borne, which is
Speaker 1: actually quite fun. It's about five years old, but it's
Speaker 1: a really good game. I've heard of it. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: monster and zombie fighting and stuff. But if you really
Speaker 1: want to turn it. I just can't handle anything that's
Speaker 1: about like news or you know, the intelligence community or
Speaker 1: law enforcement, like it's all the very stressful right now.
Speaker 1: So so you know, fighting fighting werewolves is only stressful
Speaker 1: if you're actually fighting a werewolf. You know what I'm
Speaker 1: saying exactly now, it might be a great time for
Speaker 1: you to get into Harry Powder. Then I am. Right now,
Speaker 1: I'm working my way through yet another book on the
Speaker 1: Hannibal the Punic Wars, as well as another Stalin biography.
Speaker 1: I'm on my second Stalin biography right now because I
Speaker 1: feel like it's a good time to learn a bit
Speaker 1: more about totalitarianism and the destruction of all freedom producer Mark,
Speaker 1: because I think it's a good thing to know about
Speaker 1: an America right now. It's all I'm gonna say. It's
Speaker 1: a little little worrisome. My eyes start drooping and getting
Speaker 1: closed when you start talking about books you're reading. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I know, this is you know what I do my
Speaker 1: my Quake media show with Mark Lamont Hill. We did
Speaker 1: a little just a little video cast over the weekend
Speaker 1: together and he refers to some of my history interests
Speaker 1: as my quote nerds stuff, and I it's not untrue,
Speaker 1: but it is what it is to each his own.
Speaker 1: You love history. I respect that. It's just bores me. Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: And I know, really, if I could just sort of
Speaker 1: pick something. Although I loved coaching soccer actually just got
Speaker 1: a funny me. I coached high school soccer for a season.
Speaker 1: But if I could just pick something to do that
Speaker 1: will be a lot of fun. I think being a
Speaker 1: history professor would be fun. Oh, I actually do have
Speaker 1: something for you, though, I don't know if you like this.
Speaker 1: Netflix has a couple of history based series that I
Speaker 1: really recommend to people. One is on It's basically sixteenth
Speaker 1: century Japan. The samurai warlord's called the Daimio fighting each
Speaker 1: other for dominance of the Japanese main level Japanese island,
Speaker 1: and it's really really well done. I actually not Michael Oslin,
Speaker 1: who is a scholar at the what's that place called
Speaker 1: the Hoover Institute. He's one of the guys who does
Speaker 1: the voice over an analysis, but they do pretty well.
Speaker 1: It's pretty good reenactments and stuff, so it's well produced.
Speaker 1: And there's also one on pirates and the Golden Age
Speaker 1: of pirates in the early seventeen hundreds, which is a
Speaker 1: fascinating period. It's actually something I've read a bit about
Speaker 1: on my own as well. And you know, producer Mark
Speaker 1: this is I think people should know that you know,
Speaker 1: the reason people always think like, where does pirate language
Speaker 1: come from? Pirate language is actually English from othern England slang.
Speaker 1: Because the original sort of famous pirates were in the British.
Speaker 1: They were either British privateers in the British navy largely
Speaker 1: though they're British privateers. What happened was that the British
Speaker 1: to fight against the Spanish. This, you know, the Spanish,
Speaker 1: which were they were the Great Empire at the time,
Speaker 1: the British kind of supplanted them to fight against them.
Speaker 1: They commissioned privateers, which is just a fancy way of
Speaker 1: saying pirates that the state says are okay, right, So
Speaker 1: if you're a British privateer, you can go attack any
Speaker 1: Spanish stuff you want. So the British were like, we
Speaker 1: got this great idea, We're gonna get a free navy
Speaker 1: effectively to fight against the Spanish by calling them privateers.
Speaker 1: But what they actually made were pirates because when the
Speaker 1: war ended with Spain, these guys are all our mate
Speaker 1: and they're used to plundering and fighting and now they're
Speaker 1: told yeah, well that's now illegal, you can't do that anymore,
Speaker 1: and they're like, actually we can, right, half the audience
Speaker 1: right now is into this and really loves what you're saying.
Speaker 1: In the other half is me fair enough? All right?
Speaker 1: Facebook dot com slash Buck Sexton and if you want
Speaker 1: to get into it, send us a message there. Chris
Speaker 1: first up here in roll call, Hey Buck and producer Mark.
Speaker 1: Great job, guys, thanks for always giving us the truth,
Speaker 1: whether you want to hear it or not. Great job
Speaker 1: exposed and terrible Colorado Governor. I heard you say you've
Speaker 1: never been to Colorado. Please visit. Oh this guy told
Speaker 1: him about the beer. I'm sorry we did that one yesterday,
Speaker 1: but that's all right. It was a great one, Chris.
Speaker 1: We appreciate it. Corey Buck, I'm in McKinney, Texas, and
Speaker 1: the mask mandate has been lifted a few days now,
Speaker 1: but most are of the businesses are still posting signs
Speaker 1: to wear masks. I do not wear a mask, and
Speaker 1: I'm not harassed, but I was shocked at the large
Speaker 1: majority that are still wearing masks. I just don't get it.
Speaker 1: I mean, Corey, I as soon as I can get away.
Speaker 1: You know, when I say get away with it, I
Speaker 1: mean not be physically escorted out of the premises. I'm
Speaker 1: going to stop wearing a mask. I think this is
Speaker 1: I think the data on this is clear. I know
Speaker 1: people don't want to believe it, but look at mask mandates,
Speaker 1: look at caseloads in places all over the country, and
Speaker 1: their only real answer for it, Corey is oh, but
Speaker 1: people weren't obeying the mandate. I'm here in New York City.
Speaker 1: People wear masks outside, overwhelmingly outside, never mind inside. If
Speaker 1: you walk into an indoor establishment in New York without
Speaker 1: a mask on someone, it's like they're going to tackle
Speaker 1: you to the ground and hold you until you know
Speaker 1: the squat team can arrive. They lose their minds. So
Speaker 1: trust me, people are obeying these mandates. The mandates, I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: the mandates worked maybe one percent. That's the CDC's data.
Speaker 1: You were stifling your own breath and breathing in you know,
Speaker 1: your own whatever the whole time. Because i gotta tell you,
Speaker 1: sometimes you remember what you had for lunch because of
Speaker 1: what you got in the mask. I'm just saying it's
Speaker 1: happened you were doing all of that, because it might
Speaker 1: have reduced cases over a sixty day period one percent,
Speaker 1: well if one percent declines in a widespread malady, justify
Speaker 1: whatever intervention, as Fauci calls it, the government wants to do.
Speaker 1: Freedom is dead in this country. So just remember that. Oh,
Speaker 1: Corey goes on. Also, the local school district is requiring
Speaker 1: students age ten plus to wear masks at school. When
Speaker 1: I'm questioned the reason, I received the same following the
Speaker 1: science BS. Oh, Rather, when I questioned that the reason
Speaker 1: I received the same following the science PS. Local elections
Speaker 1: are in May for my community. I used to not
Speaker 1: care about the city may or school board members, but
Speaker 1: I care now. Well, Corey, Yeah, the good news is
Speaker 1: I think for a lot of people, they become more
Speaker 1: engaged in politics at a local level. I think I
Speaker 1: think there's a greater recognition now that you can avoid
Speaker 1: caring about your school district for only so long. But
Speaker 1: if you got kids, eventually, your school districts probably gonna
Speaker 1: care about you. Unles, You're gonna put him in private
Speaker 1: school or parochial school, and that matter. It matters to people.
Speaker 1: And the fact that we're masking up all these kids
Speaker 1: in school, I mean, can you imagine, Oh God, David right, Buck,
Speaker 1: I'm a faithful listener here in Austin, Texas. What up
Speaker 1: KLBJ fam, don't think it's time to bring up articles
Speaker 1: of impeachment on Biden for endangering national security with the border.
Speaker 1: Oh sorry, I keep misreading your roll calls. Guys. Don't
Speaker 1: you think it's time to bring up articles of impeachment
Speaker 1: on Biden for endangering national security with the border fiasco?
Speaker 1: Democrats began impeachment proceedings against Trump the day he was
Speaker 1: in office on fabricated charges. The immigration disaster of Biden
Speaker 1: is real, therefore he should be impeached. Okay, David, I
Speaker 1: get where your head's at on this one. First of all,
Speaker 1: thank you for being a faithful listener in Austin, and
Speaker 1: I maybe in Austin next month as part of a
Speaker 1: plan that I will be telling you more about here
Speaker 1: and producer Mark, I'll tell you more about it offline,
Speaker 1: but I may be in Austin for it there two
Speaker 1: next month, so I'm I might finally be able to
Speaker 1: do that whole. Hey, team BAK, come hang out with
Speaker 1: me at the best barbecue place in Austin, and you'll
Speaker 1: have to tell me what that is, and hopefully we
Speaker 1: can all just sort of go in there and eat
Speaker 1: meat and drink booze and hang out. You know, if
Speaker 1: two people show up, great, If fifty people show up,
Speaker 1: what we'll make room. So as for articles of impeachment,
Speaker 1: if you're gonna do that, and I agree that impeachment
Speaker 1: articles now have been have been really put in a
Speaker 1: place where there are a weapon in politics. It's not
Speaker 1: really a good faith thing anymore. It's is this useful
Speaker 1: for my side? That's what impeachment is all about. And
Speaker 1: given that that is what impeachment is all about, I
Speaker 1: think the question that becomes what is the issue that
Speaker 1: you choose to move on against somebody like Biden. I
Speaker 1: don't think the border is the one to do it on,
Speaker 1: because what exactly, you know, we're gonna try to get
Speaker 1: them on dereliction of duty? You're talking about a straight
Speaker 1: party line situation. And Democrats have a majority in the
Speaker 1: House and the Senate. So remember when Democrats were doing
Speaker 1: their impeachment nonsense against Trump, they controlled the House, so
Speaker 1: they could sort of do the show trial thing even
Speaker 1: you know, even though they knew it was going nowhere
Speaker 1: in the Senate. They got to control the rhythm of
Speaker 1: things in the House and get all that you know,
Speaker 1: pr and nonsense BS mileage out of it. We would
Speaker 1: be in a situation where you could. You couldn't even
Speaker 1: bring it forward right now. So you gotta take back
Speaker 1: the house, David, taking back the house. You gotta take
Speaker 1: back the house or else we can't. Actually, you probably
Speaker 1: you don't even know what talking heads are, due producer
Speaker 1: mark the term talking heads. Yeah, I do. No the band,
Speaker 1: oh no, no clue bringing down the house all right. Anyway,
Speaker 1: I can only imagine they're not good. If you like them,
Speaker 1: it makes me sad more row call. We got Gina,
Speaker 1: who never likes to be Mina. She's Gina. Personal story
Speaker 1: about the kids suffering in the lockdowns due to a
Speaker 1: family crisis. I took in my grandkids, a boy and
Speaker 1: a girl, eleven and nine at the time in November
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen. We've always been close. We got them registered,
Speaker 1: started school in three days. It was awesome. I was
Speaker 1: able to shift to work from home and I was
Speaker 1: up every morning cooking breakfast again and getting them off
Speaker 1: to school. My grandson was in Karate and my granddaughter
Speaker 1: in stem. Then came March twenty twenty, all school now online.
Speaker 1: For three months it was pathetic, forty five minutes a day,
Speaker 1: no plan, but we soldiered on through summer. Then August
Speaker 1: came and school was still online better at four point
Speaker 1: five hours or so, but I was seeing different kids.
Speaker 1: They began to fight, sitting at the same dining room table,
Speaker 1: and began wandering the house every five minutes. My grandson
Speaker 1: was in karate but in my small living room and
Speaker 1: was frustrated. STEM four Sophia was canceled by December, our
Speaker 1: frustration growing, we asked for a break and the kids
Speaker 1: went to stay with their aunt for a few days
Speaker 1: in Tech. After four days, they decided they wanted to
Speaker 1: stay because they can go to school. They're thriving, loving school,
Speaker 1: being with their friends and in person learning. I miss them.
Speaker 1: But the moral of the story, what this is doing
Speaker 1: to children, to their families, is incomprehensible. I think we
Speaker 1: will see ramifications from this travesty for years, maybe decades
Speaker 1: to come. Sorry so long, I wanted to know we're
Speaker 1: real people with real heartache. She'll tell you, well, Gina,
Speaker 1: I absolutely know that, and I appreciate you writing in
Speaker 1: and sharing your story. And I can guarantee you there
Speaker 1: are a lot of people listening to this that have
Speaker 1: very similar situations all across the country. I guarantee you
Speaker 1: there are a lot of people that are hearing this
Speaker 1: and saying, oh my gosh, I've had I've had similar
Speaker 1: stuff with my kids, or if you're dealing with the grandkids,
Speaker 1: whatever it may be. So, the decision to shut down
Speaker 1: schools was not rooted in science. It was disastrous, it
Speaker 1: was wrong, and that Democrats will not undo their wrong
Speaker 1: decision is just stubbornness, vanity and selfishness. That's what this is. Now.
Speaker 1: It's the teachers' unions, you know, making sure that they
Speaker 1: pull the strings in the Democrat Party. It's disgusting, absolutely disgusting,
Speaker 1: all right, Alex, Next up here, Hey, Buck and Mark.
Speaker 1: As a former marine, the recent events regarding Tucker, Carlston
Speaker 1: and the DoD turn my stomach. That said, I believe
Speaker 1: the entire dust up is a purposeful distraction. As I've
Speaker 1: stated in previous notes to you, I think Obama is
Speaker 1: running this show, and he is an expert at division
Speaker 1: and distraction. The borders in chaos. They're spending us into oblivion,
Speaker 1: and lawlessness is on the rise across the country. Why
Speaker 1: the heck is anyone talking about flight suits for pregnant women?
Speaker 1: A total distraction? Look over here while we burn in pillage, disgraceful,
Speaker 1: stay in the fight semper five, Alex, thank you for
Speaker 1: your service, sir, thank you for writing in. And absolutely
Speaker 1: the Democrats are engaged in a lot of efforts at distraction,
Speaker 1: and they've got remember the media is not just complicit.
Speaker 1: I mean the media is co located with them, it's
Speaker 1: cohabitating with them, it's right next to them. The media
Speaker 1: is the Democrat Party, and the Democrat Party is the media.
Speaker 1: So whatever they have to do to help Biden, whatever
Speaker 1: they have to do, is the most the single most
Speaker 1: important outcome of their day, and that's how they view
Speaker 1: all this. Mark writes Heybuck. After being censored on social
Speaker 1: media and about pulling my hair out every time I
Speaker 1: flipped on the local news only to hear the same
Speaker 1: garbage for months on end, I decided to flip through
Speaker 1: some stations on my way home from work one day
Speaker 1: a month or so ago to see if there was
Speaker 1: something to listen to that would make sense of what
Speaker 1: we've been experiencing in our nation for the last year. Well,
Speaker 1: lo and behold, what I heard was absolutely amazing. A
Speaker 1: hilarious impersonation of Fauci, followed up by some amazing commentary
Speaker 1: about the ridiculousness of our times, masks, lockdowns, Liberal takeover.
Speaker 1: I'd never even heard of you before, but now I'm
Speaker 1: a regular listener of your podcast using the Stitcher app.
Speaker 1: I eagerly look forward to your impersonation of Fauci, Biden, Pelosi, Cuomo,
Speaker 1: and others, as well as your insights. If Cuomo got
Speaker 1: an Emmy for being an idiot, you should definitely get
Speaker 1: one for the best political voice over work. Keep up
Speaker 1: the great work. There are many like myself that are
Speaker 1: on your side. We just get busy with the day
Speaker 1: to day as regular workers in this great country don't
Speaker 1: have the time to sit around and be as vocal
Speaker 1: as those on the left. Shields high Well, Mark, that
Speaker 1: is a really, really kind and fantastic note. Thank you
Speaker 1: so much. Great to have a new member of team book.
Speaker 1: Honored that you're listening and you're enjoying what we do here,
Speaker 1: and just a reminder of folks. I mean, Mark is
Speaker 1: an example of what I'm talking about. People hear this
Speaker 1: show and then this becomes the show they listen to.
Speaker 1: I make no bones about it. I think this is
Speaker 1: the best show of its kind out there right now.
Speaker 1: There are other very good shows, and I respect those folks.
Speaker 1: I think this is the best show, so I hope
Speaker 1: you'll listen. I hope you'll spread the word about it,
Speaker 1: And until tomorrow, Friends, Shields High
