Welcome to today's edition of the Clay 15 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:39,120 Speaker 2: Travis and Buck Sexton Show podcast. 16 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:46,280 Speaker 1: Welcome in Thursday edition Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show. I 17 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:49,960 Speaker 1: appreciate all of you hanging out with us as we 18 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:51,240 Speaker 1: powered through. 19 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:53,080 Speaker 3: I have to be honest with you. 20 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 1: Twenty twenty four already feels crazy to me, Buck, and 21 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,840 Speaker 1: what are we eleven days into the calendar so far? 22 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:02,680 Speaker 1: You got craziness happening everywhere every direction. 23 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 3: I know a lot of you. 24 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 1: Last night watched Nicky Haley Ronda Santis on CNN. A 25 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:11,520 Speaker 1: lot more of you, I think, probably watched Donald Trump 26 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 1: on Fox News with his town hall in Iowa. We 27 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 1: will talk about both of those are takeaways. But yesterday, 28 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 1: and we've talked about this for some time on the show, 29 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 1: that there was no pathway for Chris Christy to win, 30 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:32,959 Speaker 1: and that if he truly is basically in a Donald 31 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:36,479 Speaker 1: Trump attack mode, which is the entire basis, let's be honest, 32 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 1: for his candidacy, that if that were his goal, and 33 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:43,760 Speaker 1: clearly it was, that at this point he is becoming 34 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 1: a hindrance towards potentially Nicky Haley being able to win 35 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 1: in New Hampshire because just look at the polling, pretty 36 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 1: much everybody who's voting for Chris Christy would otherwise be 37 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 1: supporting Rond De Santis or even more likely I think 38 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 1: probably Nicki Haley certainly those or not I would think 39 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 1: Trump voters, although the way voters make their decisions, probably 40 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: a couple of percent of Chris Christy voters will actually 41 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,399 Speaker 1: end up voting for Donald Trump in the primary, even 42 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 1: though it doesn't make logical sense. But yesterday evening, I 43 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 1: think it was about five o'clock Eastern, shortly after this 44 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 1: program ended, while Sean Hannity was on Chris Christy made 45 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 1: the decision to end his presidential campaign. 46 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 3: This is what it sounded like. 47 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 4: I've always said that there came a point in time 48 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 4: in this race where I couldn't see a path to 49 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:37,799 Speaker 4: accomplishing that goal that I would get out, and it's 50 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 4: clear to me tonight that there isn't a path for 51 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 4: me to win the nomination, which is why I'm suspending 52 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 4: my campaign tonight for President of the United States. 53 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,640 Speaker 2: It's the right thing for me to do because I 54 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 2: want to promise you this. 55 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 4: I am going to make sure that in no way 56 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 4: do I enable Donald Trump ever be president of the 57 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 4: United States again. And that's more important than my own 58 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 4: personal ambitions. 59 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 1: Okay, so Chris Christy goes out, then, Buck, I don't 60 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 1: know if this happened right beforehand or right after, but 61 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 1: this almost immediately overshadowed the actual announcement. Supposedly, Chris Christy 62 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 1: was caught on a live mike saying this. 63 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:27,079 Speaker 5: People don't want to hear it, Wayne, they don't want 64 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 5: to hear it. 65 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 2: We know we're right, but they don't want to hear it. 66 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,359 Speaker 2: And there's you know, we couldn't have been any clearer. 67 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 4: If we couldn't have been any more any more director 68 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 4: worked any harder. 69 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 6: So you know, yeah, you la the Shiner and places 70 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 6: like that. Yeah, that's what you get. I mean, Look, 71 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 6: she spent sixty eight million so far just on TV. 72 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 6: Spent sixty eight million so far, fifty nine million by Desantus, 73 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 6: and we spent twelve. Yeah, I mean, who's punching above 74 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 6: their weight and who's getting a return on their investment? 75 00:03:59,120 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 2: You know. 76 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 6: And she's gonna get smoked and you and I both know, 77 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 6: and she's not up to this. She's still twenty points 78 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 6: behind prumpany yeah, oh yeah, and he's gonna he's still 79 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 6: gonna carry out. 80 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 4: Yes, oh he's I talked to Desantus, called me petrified 81 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 4: that I would. 82 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:18,359 Speaker 2: Like getting out of half. I okay. So it's pretty 83 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,839 Speaker 2: good stuff, by the way, pretty good stuff in there. 84 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,480 Speaker 2: Do you remember, real quick, Clay, you were a West 85 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 2: wing guy right back in the day? Watch it? 86 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, I watched. 87 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,720 Speaker 2: Remember we remember the the hot mic moment when President 88 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 2: Bartlett says, of some guy doesn't like he's a twenty 89 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,479 Speaker 2: two caliber mind in a three fifty seven magnum world, 90 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,840 Speaker 2: and that was the ooh, and then you find out 91 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 2: the end of the episode he knew the mic was on. Yes, 92 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,720 Speaker 2: I have a hard time. This is the first thing 93 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 2: comes to mind for me. I think Chris Christy knew 94 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,039 Speaker 2: there was a hot mic there. I don't think he's 95 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 2: that undisciplined about media that he didn't know, because think 96 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 2: about what he's saying. He's getting to talk, he's taking 97 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:55,039 Speaker 2: a victory lap, he's trashing his opponents. He said, by 98 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 2: the way, it's sounded like something you'd say, she's gonna 99 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:57,279 Speaker 2: get smoked. 100 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, well so here, yeah, here is what I always 101 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 1: think about the hot mic situation. When someone has a 102 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 1: hot mic and they say everything that they would probably 103 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 1: say if they had no restrictions, and they come off 104 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 1: looking better, I never buy that they didn't know hot 105 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,840 Speaker 1: mic was there. Yep, right, And I always say, this 106 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: is an easy way to track, like who is the leaker? 107 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:21,479 Speaker 1: You know, there's always the question of, like, oh, the 108 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: story's out, Like most of the time you can figure 109 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: out who's likely to have leaked something based on who 110 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: benefits from the leak, right when there's anonymous sources involved 111 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 1: in everything else. 112 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 3: So I don't think that this was accidental. 113 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: If if there have been a hot mic come out 114 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 1: and Chris Christy said something that he that you didn't 115 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,599 Speaker 1: want to go out, and you thought to my yourself, 116 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, maybe that's not the situation you would expect. 117 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 3: I don't know. 118 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,479 Speaker 1: I mean, everybody's miked, and you and I are used 119 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,719 Speaker 1: to this at this point. I don't know how many 120 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,720 Speaker 1: hours a day I'm on a mic. I mean five 121 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: or six sometimes, I mean easily mikes, whether it's television 122 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: obviously this show, there's a mic in front of us 123 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 1: all day long, every day. I always say, live mics 124 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: are problems when you sound different than you would in 125 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: real life, right, and when you're putting on a show 126 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 1: like an artificial version of yourself. 127 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,039 Speaker 3: Otherwise people are it's fun. 128 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: You know, people are gonna say, yeah, that's kind of 129 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 1: what I would expect Clay Travis to say, because he 130 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 1: sounds kind of. 131 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:24,559 Speaker 2: Remember the time it's scripted, but in yes, we sound 132 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 2: exactly the same, especially if people like come up to 133 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 2: us in real life. Maybe there's sometimes a little bit 134 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 2: of saltier language, but other than that, it's it's exactly 135 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 2: the same. Do you remember in thirty Rock when the 136 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,599 Speaker 2: Tina Fay character who's playing the head writer on sn 137 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 2: now effectively that's such a good day. And she has 138 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 2: an open mic and she trashes the whole crew. Yeah, 139 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,040 Speaker 2: that's an open mic moment. She's like, so and so 140 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 2: is not doing this, and he's not doing that, and 141 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 2: they're so brazy. And there's you know this with Chris 142 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 2: Christie to me, way too cute. Nicky Hayley's gonna get smoked. 143 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 2: Ron's calling me groveling, like the whole thing. It just 144 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,600 Speaker 2: strikes me as look, he he's in this. 145 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 3: I don't disagree at all. I was just gonna say. 146 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 1: The problem here that I see is Chris Christie said 147 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do everything in my power to keep him 148 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: from being president or I'm paraphrasing him there. He doesn't 149 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 1: have much power, you know, Like I'm sitting there, like, 150 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: what can Chris Christy do at this point to stop 151 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: Donald Trump from being president? My takeaway there is when 152 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: he run as an independent. That that was my actual takeaway. 153 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 1: And I don't know how the ballot would like for 154 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 1: no labels or something like that. 155 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 2: Could he take that on? That actually was my takeaway. 156 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 2: You know, I sit here and I know that right now. 157 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 2: For those of you who live a very online life, 158 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 2: which is very few of you, fortunately, but Clay and I, 159 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 2: you know, we do. It's part of the part of 160 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 2: the job comes with the territory. People are very tense 161 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 2: right now about the primary, and there's a little bit 162 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 2: of lashing out going on about different candidates here and there, 163 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 2: and I just you know, I've done this. I've been 164 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 2: through this before in primaries, covering it and trying to 165 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 2: be you know, even handed in so far as I'm 166 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 2: being honest, right, Like I said yesterday, Am I somebody 167 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 2: who's a big fan of Nicky Haley's I mean comparatively 168 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 2: to other candidates. No, but I would vote for Nicki 169 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 2: Haley over Joe Biden. And so I bring this up 170 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 2: because you never want to do something where, you know, 171 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 2: the bridge is fully burned in a primary or otherwise. 172 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 2: Not just in the media, I think, I think in 173 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 2: general it's a good rule for life. A lot of 174 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 2: people want at this last minute there to be like 175 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 2: all in and just tear down some candid. They're terrible, 176 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 2: they're a bad person, they're not a patriot, or whatever 177 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 2: about the one candidate they really don't like, whether it's 178 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,680 Speaker 2: the Santis or Trump or Haley or whomever. I just 179 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,680 Speaker 2: don't think that's constructive. Like, the people are about to vote, 180 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 2: We're gonna see how they do in Iowa. We're gonna 181 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 2: find out and the voice of the people will be heard, 182 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:50,319 Speaker 2: you know what I mean. I don't see anything I 183 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 2: try to try to, like kneecap somebody here in the 184 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 2: last moment by going all in to try to get 185 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 2: some last minute push for your guy. I just think 186 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 2: that that's in a primary. That's kind of of general. 187 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 2: That's a different story. 188 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, especially when, let's be honest, assuming that we get 189 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,719 Speaker 1: Trump versus Biden, then I understand all the people out there. 190 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 2: You're getting people riled up right now. 191 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 3: I understand all the p we haven't even voted yet. 192 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 1: That's my angry voice of the Internet masses who get 193 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: upset because the voting hasn't even started yet. But assuming 194 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 1: we get Trump Biden, which would be the expectation right now, again, 195 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 1: I think that the Democrats may break the glass. I've 196 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 1: been arguing that for some time. But let's just presume 197 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: it's Trump be Biden. Particularly on the Republican side. I 198 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 1: think every single person who ran in twenty twenty four 199 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 1: will run again in twenty twenty eight because Trump is 200 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 1: either going to be eighty one and out of the picture, 201 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 1: or he's going to have finished his term. And by 202 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: twenty twenty six, I mean really soon, the ramp up 203 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 1: regardless is going to start because there's not going to 204 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: be an incumbent in office. 205 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,719 Speaker 2: So we have, obviously Chris Christy out. One thing I 206 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 2: wanted to ask you, and we didn't coret this before, 207 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 2: And I'm just curious, which was the first of the 208 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 2: two programs you went to and did you watch both 209 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 2: or either of them live? The the Trump town Hall 210 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 2: and then just Forever Listening and the Nicky Haley versus 211 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 2: Ronda Santa CNN debate. 212 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: I started on CNN because it's two people, and I'm 213 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 1: gonna be honest with you. Fifteen minutes in, I was like, 214 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 1: this is super boring. I just the one on one 215 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: debate between Nicky Haley and Ron DeSantis. I thought, compared 216 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 1: to DeSantis, Newsome was just not that interesting and it 217 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 1: felt kind of boring. 218 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 3: So I flipped over. 219 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:39,560 Speaker 1: To the town hall, and I gotta give him credit. 220 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 1: I thought Trump was absolutely phenomenal in the town hall. 221 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:49,200 Speaker 1: He was relaxed, he was likable, he was funny, he 222 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 1: was interesting, he was entertaining. 223 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,200 Speaker 3: This is this was Trump at his best. 224 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 1: I thought with Fox News Live he wasn't particularly inflammatory. 225 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 1: I thought he answered questquestions really well. I think he 226 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: does better with live audience like questions than he does 227 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,839 Speaker 1: with the moderator questions, if that makes sense. I think 228 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 1: he shows more respect for the general person that he 229 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 1: does for the media person. He's not gonna steamroll Bob 230 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 1: the construction worker or Sally the nurse at the hospital 231 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: when they ask a question. He's very good about I 232 00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 1: want to hear what you have to say. If you're 233 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 1: even trying to interview Trump, I. 234 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 2: Will say, as a challenge, it's uh, he's he's going 235 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 2: in a direction. It's it's like you're the uh, you're 236 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 2: the rodeo clown at the rodeo trying to keep the 237 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,079 Speaker 2: bull from getting out of the pen. Like Trump does 238 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 2: whatever he wants to do in interviews, it's very hard 239 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 2: to slow him down or direct him. And I would say, 240 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,439 Speaker 2: for me, by the way, I was did you want 241 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 2: you didn't know? 242 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 4: What? 243 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 2: How did you watch? Same? Same? I mean I I 244 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 2: went to the debate first because I thought, oh more fireworks, 245 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,440 Speaker 2: and I figured I'd watched the Trump town hall on 246 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 2: delay and I ended up switching over earlier and and 247 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 2: I look, I think that that's pretty much the consensus 248 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 2: opinion of the Trump was very entertaining and was very affable, 249 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 2: which is one of his political strengths. He just comes across. 250 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:09,360 Speaker 2: Even people I think who are being honest will say 251 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 2: that he is very good at being ingratiating and being entertaining. Now, 252 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 2: whether that should make him president or not, it's a 253 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 2: whole other conversation. But the Nicky Haley Ron DeSantis thing, 254 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,319 Speaker 2: I don't know. I come at this with a bias 255 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 2: and that I'm not a big I don't really understand 256 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 2: much of the NICKI I understand who likes Nicki Haley. 257 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 2: I just wish that they would think of things differently. 258 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 2: I suppose, but I thought she had a really bad 259 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:37,640 Speaker 2: night overall. I thought Nicky Haley came across this whole. 260 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 2: She said fourteen times, go to desantislies dot com, like 261 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 2: they made a website of how much he lies. I 262 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 2: went to the site, and I gotta tell you, there 263 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 2: are some things on there where, okay, like maybe Ron's 264 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 2: playing a little fast and loose, or I should say, 265 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 2: it's debatable but there are other things. I'm like, that's 266 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 2: not a lie, like he states, you know, basically in 267 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 2: a pace. I hate when people do this when there's 268 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,840 Speaker 2: something that's debatable or an opinion, they're like, you're lying, No, 269 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 2: not a lie, you just don't like what I'm saying. 270 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 2: And she did that to Ron a lot. Also, there 271 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 2: are things you can attack Ron DeSantis for being good 272 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 2: with facts is to me not one of them, right. 273 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 1: I mean, there are a lot of politicians. I think 274 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:20,679 Speaker 1: Joe Biden lies all the time, and I don't think 275 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 1: Joe Biden is particularly smart about the way he lies, 276 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 1: Like he's just kind of ham handed and messy about it. 277 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:28,719 Speaker 1: I think Trump is bull in a china shop. I 278 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 1: think he's just sometimes fast and loose with everything that 279 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 1: he says. I think he gets to the right place, 280 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 1: but he just knocks over tons of stuff in the process. 281 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:42,559 Speaker 1: And then DeSantis to me, actually seems at times blandly 282 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 1: anti lying right, like just not enough sizzle on the 283 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 1: stake that he's got right. But that seems really misguided 284 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 1: to me that Nicky Haley would go after Ron DeSantis 285 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 1: on the idea that he tells a lot of lies. 286 00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 1: I agree with you and say it over and over 287 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 1: and over again. I don't know intellectually how they would 288 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 1: break down. I'll probably get in trouble for saying this, 289 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 1: but I'm just gonna bulldoze through it anyway. I think 290 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:13,559 Speaker 1: Ron DeSantis is in a different class intellectually than Nicky 291 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:14,080 Speaker 1: Haley is. 292 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 2: WHOA clay went there? Okay, I think this out there. 293 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 1: That's when I watched the debate. I mean, Newsom is smart. 294 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 1: I think I think he's a real wire. I thought 295 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 1: that Ron DeSantis was in a different intellectual category with 296 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:31,800 Speaker 1: Nicky Haley head to head last night. Can I put 297 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 1: out there for right now, for this hour, I would 298 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: love to get anyone listening who vehemently disagrees with any 299 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 1: assessment that we have right here, whether it's is inevitable, yes, 300 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 1: me saying Nicky Haley had a bad night. 301 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 2: I don't want anyone calling in for this hour to 302 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 2: tell us how right we are, although we do love you, 303 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 2: and you are all geniuses who feel that way. But 304 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 2: anyone who wants to call in and really light us on, 305 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 2: I mean this, light us up on one of these things, 306 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 2: because to me, I thought Nikki Haley had a terrible 307 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 2: night last night. I mean, not that it really matters, 308 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 2: because I don't think she's going to be president, so 309 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 2: who cares, you know, I thought, I think Ron is 310 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 2: always steady, he's always solid, he's always wrong. But he's 311 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 2: not a breakout performance guy. He's a he does what 312 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 2: he does guy. He's he's a he's a sports analogy. 313 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 3: Buck. 314 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 1: He is the guy who's gonna get you the first 315 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 1: down on third and one, but he's never gonna take 316 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 1: it to the house. 317 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 2: There you go. 318 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 1: So he might lose twenty yards, but he also might 319 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 1: have a dazzling you know, like cross the field touchdown, right. 320 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 1: I mean that that's the way that I would kind 321 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 1: of characterize him. 322 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 2: So eight hundred two A two two a A two 323 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,720 Speaker 2: tell us what we are wrong about right now? I 324 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 2: want to take some of those all right? 325 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 1: Look, Buck, Buck made it even even heard about how 326 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 1: big this news is because so substantial Nick Saban retired, 327 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 1: I won't see. 328 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:56,840 Speaker 6: Uh. 329 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 2: And earlier today, Bill Belichick out with the New England Patriots, 330 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 2: two of the coaching legends of all time, with the 331 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 2: Patriots and the Alabama Crimson Tide both out.

Great to be here. 383 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 2: As always, so we have guys. Let's start with this one. 384 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 2: We all know the borders that told disaster. 385 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 3: Stephen. 386 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 2: The good news is I mean, not that there's any 387 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:47,159 Speaker 2: good news about this, but this audience very up to 388 00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:51,119 Speaker 2: speed on the numbers, the criminality, the lawlessness, and the 389 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 2: Biden administration's utter refusal to do anything meaningful about it. 390 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 2: Last night we heard from President Trump about his proposals, 391 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,639 Speaker 2: and here's one thing we talked to. There was a 392 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:08,920 Speaker 2: talk of deportations, rapidly escalating the deportations. Here's what Trump said, 393 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 2: Play fifteen. 394 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 5: How will you gather the several millions that have already 395 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 5: entered our country illegally and return them to their country 396 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 5: of origin? 397 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 8: Great question. It's not sustainable for our country. We have 398 00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 8: millions and millions of people here. It is not sustainable. 399 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:31,639 Speaker 8: Did you see in New York City with it getting 400 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 8: the regular students out and they're putting migrants in their place. 401 00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 8: We are going to have the largest deportation effort in 402 00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 8: the history of our country. We're bringing everybody back to 403 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 8: where they came from. 404 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:46,119 Speaker 1: We have no choice. 405 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 2: We have no choice. All right, Steven, you heard it 406 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 2: from the man himself. What would that look like? What 407 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 2: would that deportation effort? I mean, walk us through how 408 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 2: that happens. 409 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:01,400 Speaker 7: Yes, well, this is something of course the We've given 410 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 7: a great deal of thought to and I'm speaking to 411 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:10,399 Speaker 7: you now in my personal capacity when I say this, 412 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 7: I am one hundred percent confident that when President Trump 413 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:22,399 Speaker 7: takes the oath of office, we will begin and initiate the 414 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:26,679 Speaker 7: largest deportation operation, as he said, in the history of 415 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 7: our country. And the way this will be done is 416 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:35,200 Speaker 7: by number one, involving and leveraging the enormous federal assets 417 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:39,399 Speaker 7: at our disposal beyond the Board of Patrol and ICE. 418 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 7: So right now, ICE has about six thousand deportation officers 419 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:47,119 Speaker 7: as your starting point. That's not very many that you know, 420 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,119 Speaker 7: New York City has thirty thousand costs to put that 421 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 7: respective six thousand for the whole country. So you begin 422 00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 7: by number one, taking HSI, which is the organization on 423 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:01,359 Speaker 7: top of ICE, Homeland Security Investigation, and you can pull 424 00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:05,720 Speaker 7: another probably ten eleven thousand guns and badges from HSSi. 425 00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 7: Then you go into the Department of Justice, well you 426 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 7: get CBP extra resources for interior operations. Then you go 427 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 7: into DOJ, you pull from FBI atf DEA. Then you 428 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 7: go into from there your other departments and agencies that 429 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:23,879 Speaker 7: have their own police forces, for example, even the National 430 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:27,880 Speaker 7: Park Service as a significant police service. Then beyond that 431 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 7: is when you bring in the National Guard. And you 432 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 7: do this by going to each of the different states. 433 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 7: You know, just take a pick, right, you go to 434 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 7: say the governor of Alabama, and you say, we need 435 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 7: to use your National guardsmen to carry out deportation operations 436 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 7: in and around your staate. So it's not just in 437 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:49,679 Speaker 7: the state they're coming from, but you try to do 438 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 7: it regionally for efficiency sake, so like in the Southeast region, 439 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,479 Speaker 7: you know, for example, and then you go to the 440 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,879 Speaker 7: sheriffs and the police departments and using the authority that 441 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 7: is delegated the Secretary of Homeland Security. You're then able 442 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 7: to deputize those individuals as well. But the key for 443 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 7: efficiency's sake is that it has to be done under 444 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:13,199 Speaker 7: the control of your most experienced deportation officers. In other words, 445 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:15,160 Speaker 7: this isn't just like you show up and you say 446 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 7: to a group of people, all right, now you're immigration officers, 447 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:21,680 Speaker 7: because it's an incredibly challenging, complicated and it's very data 448 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:25,240 Speaker 7: driven knowing where the illegals are and what their case 449 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:30,399 Speaker 7: disposition is. So you have experienced your best ice officers 450 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:33,679 Speaker 7: running these teams that are blends of federal, state, and 451 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 7: local and National Guard. For resources. Then, as we've talked 452 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 7: about before, you have to have staging facilities for outbound flights. 453 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 7: Right because you collect a group of people, say you 454 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 7: cook to one hundred people one day in Alabama, they're 455 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 7: going to be from two dozen different countries. Each country 456 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:55,400 Speaker 7: you have a different plane, a different manifested, different everything. 457 00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 7: So you have to have somewhere to hold these people 458 00:22:57,760 --> 00:22:59,720 Speaker 7: while you're waiting for these outbound flights and of course 459 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:02,440 Speaker 7: dealing with all of the legal challenges. 460 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:05,400 Speaker 5: Other things that are going to arise, which. 461 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:06,480 Speaker 7: That brings me to our next point, which is that 462 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:08,640 Speaker 7: the State Department has to be also the leading. 463 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 6: Edge of this. 464 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:12,439 Speaker 7: And one of the things that I experience firsthand, but 465 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:15,280 Speaker 7: many people outside of government I realized, is the State 466 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 7: Department is the tip of the spear in any deportation operation. 467 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:24,639 Speaker 7: There was obtaining unconditional compliance from countries around the world. 468 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 7: So those tarmacs are always open to your aircraft. You 469 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:30,639 Speaker 7: pick up the phone and they're ready to receive whatever 470 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 7: plane that you're sending. No games, no ball, no nothing countries. 471 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:37,399 Speaker 7: If you let them, they will nickel and dine you 472 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:39,639 Speaker 7: over everything. They will say, oh, we can only accept 473 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 7: twenty right now, or we can only accept fifteen right now, 474 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 7: or we're not going to give them travel documents, or 475 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:46,919 Speaker 7: we don't think this is a real citizen of our country. 476 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 7: It's not the right path. But whatever you have to say, no, 477 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:53,200 Speaker 7: you accept every single person we're sending back, or consequences 478 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 7: are going to initiate immediately. The last thing I'll to 479 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:57,920 Speaker 7: say about this is that you have to bring additional 480 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:00,920 Speaker 7: authorities to their One of those that we've talked about before. 481 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,920 Speaker 7: If the Alien Enemies Act, which gives you expedited deportation 482 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:07,359 Speaker 7: as well too. And then additionally, by using a CALI 483 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 7: forty two authority at the border, that will free up 484 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,880 Speaker 7: an enormous amount of resources in space to carry out 485 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 7: these domestic deportation operations. So it's not the complete answer, 486 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:19,879 Speaker 7: but it gives you a sense about the kind of 487 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 7: activity that we need to be put into effect. And 488 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:26,719 Speaker 7: I can assure you it will happen as surely as 489 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 7: the sun rises in the morning. If Donald Trump is 490 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 7: the next president of the United States, then this will happen. 491 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 3: Stephen. 492 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 1: Obviously, the border is a unmitigated disaster. Did you ever 493 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 1: think in your wildest dreams that it would get this 494 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:50,159 Speaker 1: bad when Joe Biden came into office? And you're not 495 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 1: exactly a guy who is singing sunnyside Homilies here on 496 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:57,159 Speaker 1: the border in the first place, right, But even you, 497 00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 1: are you astounded that we're talking about you know, six 498 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,920 Speaker 1: seven eight million illegals that we know of pouring into 499 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:07,399 Speaker 1: this country and the record time unlike we've ever seen. 500 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 3: Even are you stunned by how bad it's gotten. 501 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:16,040 Speaker 7: I'm stunned by the extent to which the Democrat Party 502 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:21,160 Speaker 7: has been willing to sustain this pace of illical immigration. 503 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:28,119 Speaker 7: Knowing the extraordinary public goloback and pressure. I know there 504 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 7: was I thought that they might I thought that they 505 00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 7: might meeter it just enough, because you know, for the 506 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 7: media to cover it, you know, six or seven thousand 507 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:39,879 Speaker 7: apprehensions a day is an unmitigated catastrophe. They're now at 508 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:43,359 Speaker 7: you know, ten eleven thousand apprehensions a day. The media, 509 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 7: the corporate media would ignore it at catastrophe levels. So 510 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:49,720 Speaker 7: there's a state at catastrophe levels. The corporate media would 511 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:53,040 Speaker 7: ignore it. They're at armageddon levels, so that even the 512 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:55,359 Speaker 7: liberal press is covering it. That I did find a 513 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,359 Speaker 7: bit surprising. But what I didn't find surprising at all 514 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 7: is that it happen because and I'm actually really glad 515 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 7: you asked the question, because I very rarely get to 516 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 7: say this. In the Trump administration, we knew that the 517 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:13,400 Speaker 7: whole paradigm on the border had changed, that ideal immigration 518 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:16,119 Speaker 7: was no longer just a Mexican issue, that it was 519 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 7: one hundred plus countries the smugglers and cartels had left 520 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 7: into the twenty first century, using social media, using networking 521 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 7: apps to facilitate mass illegal immigration. That they were able 522 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:31,119 Speaker 7: to use very advanced and sophisticated intelligence tools, that the 523 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 7: cartels were more powerful than ever in the north of Mexico, 524 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:39,160 Speaker 7: and that the cheapness of international transportation and the abiability 525 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 7: of international transportation also changed the game. In other words, 526 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:45,200 Speaker 7: a poor person today in a third world country, you 527 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 7: can probably still say, with enough money to get to 528 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,359 Speaker 7: an intermediate country, you know, say to get to Panama 529 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 7: or even to get to Mexico City and then pay 530 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 7: the cartel for the rest of the way. This wasn't 531 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 7: true when George Bush was in office, and so we 532 00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:04,960 Speaker 7: understood that if we didn't perform exceptionally and feamlessly on 533 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,080 Speaker 7: the border, that the gates of hell would open up. 534 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:13,119 Speaker 7: And we knew that. And so for me as a 535 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:15,680 Speaker 7: as a private citizen, then in early twenty twenty one, 536 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 7: watching what Biden was doing, my you know, my heart 537 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 7: sank to the floor. I was just just devastated because 538 00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:31,679 Speaker 7: I understood what would happen and what did happen. 539 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:35,879 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Yeah, Steven Miller, Yeah, and also Stephen you 540 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,280 Speaker 1: were just kind of hitting at that, but I was curious. 541 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:42,680 Speaker 1: One big part of this storyline has been the Governor 542 00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 1: of Texas, Greg Abbott, sending migrants to all of these 543 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:51,240 Speaker 1: sanctuary cities. Would this be something that maybe the Trump 544 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 1: administration as a federal level would do. It's a little 545 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,200 Speaker 1: bit different obviously than the state, but that's obviously been 546 00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 1: very successful too, because it's made it impossible for people 547 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 1: who are in New York or Chicago or Washington, d C. 548 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 1: Who sit back and say, oh, the border is not 549 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 1: an issue. Their entire city is collapsing, their budgets are 550 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 1: falling apart. How does that impact going forward? 551 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 7: No, the answer is that when it comes to the border, 552 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 7: we're not going to do anything other than port, deport, depart, depart. 553 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:28,040 Speaker 7: That's the bottom line. And we now have we possess 554 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:33,680 Speaker 7: the skills, the knowledge, the bureaucratic know how, the mastery 555 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 7: of the federal agencies, the strategies with the judiciary, and 556 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 7: everything in between to be able to come in on 557 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 7: day one and put in place an enforcement regime that 558 00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 7: no Western country in modern history has been able to 559 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:49,080 Speaker 7: match or equal. 560 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 2: Steven Miller, everybody, Steven, thanks for being with us, man, 561 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 2: appreciate it. 562 00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 7: Thank you, God bless you U soon you know. 563 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 2: Here one big promise that was made last night, Clay 564 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:01,840 Speaker 2: during the debate just wanted to play this for everybody. 565 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. During the town hall, not the debate, when 566 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 2: Trump said this is cut thirty two and he said 567 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 2: day one, he's going to be a dictator on two things, 568 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 2: the border and energy. Play it. 569 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:17,719 Speaker 8: I said, I'm going to be a dictator for one day. 570 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 8: We're going to do two things. The border, we're gonna 571 00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 8: make it so tight you can't get in unless you 572 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 8: come in legally. 573 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 2: And the other is energy. We're gonna drill, baby, drill. 574 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 8: After that, I'm not gonna be a dictator. After that, 575 00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 8: I'm not gonna be a dictator. 576 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:35,000 Speaker 3: There you go. 577 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 2: After that, He's not going to be a dictator. But 578 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 2: those are two very important things in all seriousness, the 579 00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 2: border and also what energy if it was truly remember 580 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 2: the the whether it's people that are going to be 581 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 2: doing oil and gas exploration, people that are setting up 582 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 2: the refinery operations for it clay. They've got to project 583 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 2: far out into the future, right, it's not just something 584 00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 2: that happens suddenly. So knowing that you have a four 585 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 2: year administration, that's going to be really favorable because they're 586 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 2: not scared of Greta Thunberg shaming them at the UN 587 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 2: or something really favorable toward American energy independence. I would 588 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:14,480 Speaker 2: be huge I think for the economy. So you secure 589 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 2: the border and you do that for energy, you're already 590 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:18,360 Speaker 2: way ahead of where we are right now. 591 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:20,640 Speaker 1: And also Buck, this comes back to what we said 592 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 1: about the border for a long time. There are two 593 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:25,959 Speaker 1: main incentives why people come illegally to the United States. 594 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 1: One is jobs, and that's a courtesy of capitalism in 595 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:32,840 Speaker 1: the fact that we have created the greatest economic success 596 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 1: of a country and the history of the world. Okay, 597 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 1: so that's one that's hard to eliminate. Two, and Steven 598 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 1: has talked about this with us before. If you make 599 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 1: it harder for people to come here to get jobs, 600 00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 1: that eliminates the incentive. Second part is we really have 601 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 1: to address the structural issue here, which is birthright citizenship 602 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 1: has to become a major point of debate in this country, 603 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 1: by which I mean just because you're born on the 604 00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:59,600 Speaker 1: soil here, if you are born as the result of 605 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:03,600 Speaker 1: a crime, why should you be rewarded for that. That 606 00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 1: is something that really needs to enter the American consciousness. 607 00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:10,880 Speaker 1: This is not a commonplace thing. Most of our rivals 608 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 1: in the world don't allow you to become a citizen 609 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 1: if you are born in their country, even if you're 610 00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 1: there legally, And it makes zero sense that we would 611 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:24,080 Speaker 1: allow someone to illegally enter the country, have a child 612 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 1: maybe eight or nine months pregnant when they come in 613 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 1: and suddenly their child is a citizen forever, and then 614 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:31,840 Speaker 1: you can't deport the mom, you can't deport the dad. 615 00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 1: This is a structural problem and an incentive that has 616 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:36,680 Speaker 1: to be addressed. 617 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,960 Speaker 2: Eight hundred two two two eight a two And I 618 00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 2: just got one yesterday. Actually, a text message came into 619 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:46,840 Speaker 2: my phone. It was during the show, and usually when 620 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 2: people text me during the show, I get a little 621 00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 2: bit like, hm, what's going on, because you know, people 622 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 2: who know me know what I'm doing from twelve noon 623 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 2: to three eastern every day. And sure enough it was, oh, 624 00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 2: your package isn't coming to the right place, just click here. 625 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 2: It was a scam, folks, It was a scam. But 626 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:08,280 Speaker 2: they're getting really sophisticated. In fact, these days, they're even 627 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 2: trying to use scams about raising money for charities and 628 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 2: other things in order to get your personal information. So 629 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:19,320 Speaker 2: it's a fake charity or it's something that you think, 630 00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 2: oh my gosh, I'm doing a good thing.

Honestly, 664 00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:10,919 Speaker 2: play twenty five. 665 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:14,239 Speaker 9: I'm here to say it's ours to lose. It is 666 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:17,000 Speaker 9: this country, this is what it's all about. 667 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:17,480 Speaker 6: Are there? 668 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:21,840 Speaker 9: You want it to work forward thinking, You want everybody 669 00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:24,839 Speaker 9: to have the ability to say how they feel what 670 00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 9: they want to move forward, or you don't, or you 671 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 9: want somebody who says I'm gonna be on day one, 672 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:33,879 Speaker 9: I'm going to be a dictator who says it to you, 673 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,400 Speaker 9: tells you I'm gonna put you people away. I'men to 674 00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:39,280 Speaker 9: take all the journalists. I'm gonna take all the gay folks. 675 00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:42,080 Speaker 9: I'm gonna move you all around and disappear you. If 676 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 9: that's the country you want, you know, who to vote 677 00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:48,120 Speaker 9: for the most, that's not If that's not the country you. 678 00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 7: Want, you have to make a decision. 679 00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:56,480 Speaker 2: Going to disappear journalists and gay folks. She says Clay. 680 00:34:58,080 --> 00:34:59,840 Speaker 2: I mean, I guess you can say anything about Trump. 681 00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:02,120 Speaker 2: The rule now is if you're a Democrat, to say 682 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:05,800 Speaker 2: anything you want, say that Donald Trump assassinated Abraham Lincoln. 683 00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 2: It's his fault, like you would say anything you want. 684 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:12,400 Speaker 1: I think though, this all now is working to Trump's favor. 685 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:15,880 Speaker 1: This this is my big thesis for why Trump, if 686 00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 1: he is the nominee, will win because they can't keep 687 00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:25,719 Speaker 1: going to the Trump is hitler basically, which is what 688 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:28,239 Speaker 1: she's saying, right, He's gonna kill journalists. 689 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:31,160 Speaker 3: I mean, just think about that for a minute. 690 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:36,440 Speaker 1: He's gonna disappear journalist, that he's gonna send people, and 691 00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:40,080 Speaker 1: that they're going to kidnap journalist. First of all, like 692 00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:42,600 Speaker 1: if anybody was gonna do that, it would be Joe Biden. 693 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:43,800 Speaker 3: Let's be honest. 694 00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:49,120 Speaker 1: Second, he was president for four years. Did any journalists disappear? 695 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:51,520 Speaker 2: I'm gonna I'm saying this and I'm not I'm being 696 00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:54,839 Speaker 2: serious about it. I mean, I truly believe this. If 697 00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:58,960 Speaker 2: COVID had had a three or four percent fatality rate, 698 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:02,640 Speaker 2: you know, really really high pandemic fatality rate, and then 699 00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:05,319 Speaker 2: the vaccines came out and they would have rounded up 700 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 2: the unvaccinated in like you know, in tournament camp, in camps, 701 00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:12,839 Speaker 2: they would have done it. I really Australia basically did 702 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:14,919 Speaker 2: it with people with COVID. I think Joe Biden would 703 00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:16,840 Speaker 2: have rounded people up who refused to get the vaccine. 704 00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:19,280 Speaker 1: I really believe it until the people like Whoopee Goldberg 705 00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:21,799 Speaker 1: would have cheered it. And this is just I mean, 706 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 1: the journalist is one gay people. Wasn't Trump the most 707 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,360 Speaker 1: pro gay rights Republican president of all time? 708 00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:32,920 Speaker 2: First president running for office to hold the gay flag 709 00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:36,160 Speaker 2: gay pride flag on stage at a campaign event, so 710 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:39,920 Speaker 2: before any Democrat did. Our nation's dollar has been the 711 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:43,880 Speaker 2: world's currency for decades and it's how world trading is measured. 712 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 2: So the stability of the dollar is super important. It's 713 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:48,719 Speaker 2: a very important thing for our quality of life right, 714 00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:50,360 Speaker 2: I mean the way that we can live our lives. 715 00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:52,600 Speaker 2: But is it going to be able to endure? Look 716 00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 2: at what inflation is doing. Look at budget deficits thirty 717 00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:57,960 Speaker 2: four trillion dollars in debt plus gosh, what's going to 718 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 2: happen this year.

Mister Speaker, 730 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:36,680 Speaker 2: appreciate you making the time. 731 00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:39,879 Speaker 5: Hey great to be with you guys, to hear your voices. 732 00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:41,919 Speaker 2: So we know we're at the border. We talked about 733 00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 2: that top of the hour. We do want to get 734 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:46,480 Speaker 2: into that issue with you and see what the latest 735 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:48,959 Speaker 2: is from your perspective. But first talk to us here 736 00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:53,800 Speaker 2: about this this spending deal. What's really going on and 737 00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:57,359 Speaker 2: why are you taking the positions that you are right 738 00:37:57,400 --> 00:37:59,920 Speaker 2: now in terms of the you know, whether you're agreed 739 00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:03,759 Speaker 2: disagree with Democrats walk us through the spending deal as 740 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:04,840 Speaker 2: it stands right now. 741 00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:08,239 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a great question. There's a lot of misinformation 742 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:09,440 Speaker 5: and confusion about this. 743 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:09,880 Speaker 2: Guys. 744 00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 5: What we've done here is we're trying to work towards 745 00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:15,480 Speaker 5: the twelve separate appropriations bills. That's the way Congress is 746 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:18,920 Speaker 5: supposed to work. That's how we restore physical sanity to Washington, 747 00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:22,239 Speaker 5: and we engage in good stewardship on behalf of tacks payers. Right, 748 00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:24,960 Speaker 5: we have a thirty four trillion dollar federal debt. I mean, 749 00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 5: it's an incredible landmark and a dangerous one. So we 750 00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:30,720 Speaker 5: are negotiating, trying to work towards a top line spending 751 00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:33,600 Speaker 5: agreement that is the first cut to non v eight 752 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:37,279 Speaker 5: non defense spending in many years. It significantly cuts out 753 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:39,480 Speaker 5: a lot of the side agreements that were negotiated last 754 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 5: year for the spending bills, about sixteen billion dollars in 755 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:45,000 Speaker 5: real new spending custs, we take ten billion out of 756 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:48,160 Speaker 5: the IRS slush fund and about six point one billion 757 00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:52,160 Speaker 5: from the Bid Administration's COVID ERA funds. The real important 758 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:55,960 Speaker 5: point here is that having an agreement allows our Republican 759 00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:59,280 Speaker 5: conservative appropriators to go in the room and fight against 760 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:02,360 Speaker 5: the Nancy Polo with the Era policy writers that remain 761 00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:05,959 Speaker 5: in effect because we're operating under a continued resolution and 762 00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:08,040 Speaker 5: we've got to get the new budget done. So that's 763 00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:10,799 Speaker 5: what this is about. It's not the best deal that 764 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:13,439 Speaker 5: any of us as conservatives would draft on our own, 765 00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:16,960 Speaker 5: but here's what everybody has to remember. We only have Conservatives. 766 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 5: Republicans only have the majority in one House of Congress, 767 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 5: and it's about to become the smallest majority in US history. 768 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:25,880 Speaker 5: I mean, after January twenty second, we'll be down to 769 00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:28,560 Speaker 5: a one vote margin. I mean literally, there's only been 770 00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:31,520 Speaker 5: one Congress in nineteen seventeen there in World War One, 771 00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:34,200 Speaker 5: and have a smaller majority than we'll have smaller margins. 772 00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:37,920 Speaker 5: So we want to advance our conservative priorities and principles 773 00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:39,839 Speaker 5: every moment of every day as far as we can. 774 00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:42,160 Speaker 5: But right now, guys, to give a football metaphor which 775 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:45,840 Speaker 5: you both are converson in. I'm an LSU guy, so 776 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:46,720 Speaker 5: that's how I speak. 777 00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:47,280 Speaker 4: Right Listen. 778 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 5: I want to throw a hill Mary pass on every play, 779 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 5: but right now it's three yards and a cloud of dust. 780 00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:54,680 Speaker 5: We've got to advance the ball up the field incrementally, 781 00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:55,600 Speaker 5: and that's what we're trying to do. 782 00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:58,200 Speaker 3: You're an LSU guy, by the way. I got to 783 00:39:58,239 --> 00:39:58,799 Speaker 3: build on this. 784 00:39:58,960 --> 00:39:59,120 Speaker 6: Then. 785 00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:01,960 Speaker 3: How excited were you when you saw Nick Saban was retiring? 786 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:04,279 Speaker 5: You know, I was hoping you would see that up 787 00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 5: for me, you know, congratulations to him, undeniable that he's 788 00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:10,480 Speaker 5: you know, he's probably one of it's not the greatest 789 00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:13,120 Speaker 5: coaches certainly in the college game of all time, but 790 00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:15,160 Speaker 5: at ULSS you we have no love loss for Alabama 791 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:17,239 Speaker 5: and what he's done. So you know, it's a bittersweet 792 00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:19,839 Speaker 5: day for college football all about that. 793 00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:20,560 Speaker 3: That's a good answer. 794 00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:22,800 Speaker 1: I think you should have said that that Brian Kelly 795 00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:25,000 Speaker 1: is now going to smoke Alabama and the Crimson Tide 796 00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:27,040 Speaker 1: or finished as an elite football program. 797 00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:28,200 Speaker 3: That's what I was telling my. 798 00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:31,480 Speaker 2: Yah. 799 00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:33,400 Speaker 1: That's what I was telling my seventh grader, by the way, 800 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:35,440 Speaker 1: who has ended up an Alabama fan because they've been 801 00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:37,960 Speaker 1: so dominant. It's a real failure of parenting that I've 802 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 1: allowed that to happen. We're talking to speaker, Speaker Mike Johnson. Okay, 803 00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 1: So for people out there who are listening to us 804 00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:49,160 Speaker 1: right now and they are not that familiar with you, 805 00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:52,839 Speaker 1: how are you different than the speaker that you replaced. 806 00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:56,200 Speaker 1: What is going to be different for Republican voters out 807 00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:58,840 Speaker 1: there that they should know about you compared to the 808 00:40:58,840 --> 00:40:59,640 Speaker 1: man you replaced. 809 00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:03,160 Speaker 5: Well, listen, I'm not going to in any way to 810 00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:06,200 Speaker 5: spirit the McCarthy was a great guy and a patriot, 811 00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:08,960 Speaker 5: did the best to have he could under tough circumstances. 812 00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:08,800 Speaker 2: All the time. 813 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:11,000 Speaker 5: But you know, my background is different. I was a 814 00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:15,440 Speaker 5: constitutional law litigator. I was a front lines literally frontline 815 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:20,160 Speaker 5: conservative movement conservative my whole life. And that's the background 816 00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:22,919 Speaker 5: I bring into this. The lens by which I see 817 00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:26,240 Speaker 5: things is as a constitutional conservative. I mean, I believe 818 00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:28,239 Speaker 5: in the founding principles of the country, and we're trying 819 00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:30,960 Speaker 5: to advance some merea every day individual freedom, limited government, 820 00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:34,600 Speaker 5: you know, the rule of law, peace through strings, fiscal responsibility, 821 00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:37,360 Speaker 5: free markets, human dignity. These are the things that built 822 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:40,280 Speaker 5: the country. These are my fixed points in the horizon 823 00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:41,960 Speaker 5: and the guide what we do. So what you're going 824 00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:45,759 Speaker 5: to see over the long term is a real emphasis 825 00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:47,720 Speaker 5: on that to give us back to what made America 826 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:49,920 Speaker 5: great in the first place. I feel like we've deviated 827 00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:53,160 Speaker 5: from it too far now acknowledging right now we're going 828 00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:55,080 Speaker 5: through a valley. That's what I want everybody to know 829 00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:57,240 Speaker 5: and be encouraged by it. We are going to emerge 830 00:41:57,239 --> 00:41:58,640 Speaker 5: on the other side of this. Right now, we have 831 00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:02,480 Speaker 5: the smallest majority in US history very soon here with 832 00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:05,000 Speaker 5: one majority in one House of Congress, we only have 833 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:07,080 Speaker 5: control of one half of one third of the feral government. 834 00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:09,279 Speaker 5: That it's all going to change, because Guy, I am 835 00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:12,160 Speaker 5: very bullish on the upcoming election cycle. I am convinced 836 00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:15,000 Speaker 5: that we're going to expand the conservative Republican majority in 837 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:16,880 Speaker 5: the House. We're going to win back the Senate, and 838 00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:18,239 Speaker 5: I think we're going to win back to the White 839 00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:20,480 Speaker 5: House as well, and so everybody in this country is 840 00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:22,879 Speaker 5: going to be in a much better place a year 841 00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:25,320 Speaker 5: from now. We've got to get through this valley, and 842 00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:27,480 Speaker 5: we've got a demistry that we can govern well. 843 00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:31,600 Speaker 2: I think Speaker Johnson, we're speaking to the Speaker of 844 00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:34,799 Speaker 2: the House, Mike Johnson right now, and Speaker Johnson to 845 00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:37,560 Speaker 2: that end, let's let's let's fast forward a little bit 846 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:42,040 Speaker 2: and hope and pray, but let's fast forward to where 847 00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:44,600 Speaker 2: we have a really good election at the end of 848 00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:47,800 Speaker 2: this year, and let's say you get a Republican president. 849 00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:49,719 Speaker 2: I can let anybody else fill in the blank here 850 00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:51,640 Speaker 2: of who they think that would be, but a Republican 851 00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:55,440 Speaker 2: president House and Senate. What do you think the Republican 852 00:42:55,480 --> 00:43:01,400 Speaker 2: House caucus is willing to do on the immigration issue? Really? 853 00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:03,160 Speaker 2: I mean, we just had Stephen Miller on He's talking 854 00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:06,719 Speaker 2: about Trump promising massive deportations. He says he one hundred 855 00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:10,120 Speaker 2: percent believes him. What is the Republican party in the 856 00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:12,680 Speaker 2: House willing to do to deal with our out of 857 00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:15,759 Speaker 2: control border? I know you were just down there, we 858 00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:16,360 Speaker 2: were listen. 859 00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:18,000 Speaker 5: I talked Steve Miller about it all the time and 860 00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:20,399 Speaker 5: all of our friends. We're absolutely committed. I believe it's 861 00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:22,080 Speaker 5: the number one issue. I think it'll be a big 862 00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:25,520 Speaker 5: issue for the election, maybe the biggest one, because it's 863 00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:28,640 Speaker 5: the most immediate crisis and catastrophe that we have to faith. 864 00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:31,360 Speaker 5: Last week, we took sixty four House Republicans down to 865 00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:33,560 Speaker 5: the border, to Egle pass to the epicenter, to see 866 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:35,440 Speaker 5: it off with their own two eyes. Many of us 867 00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:37,839 Speaker 5: have been to the border multiple times before, but it's 868 00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:40,080 Speaker 5: never been as bad as it is right now. Guys, 869 00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:43,280 Speaker 5: three hundred and two thousand people crossed illegally in December. 870 00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:45,279 Speaker 5: That's just the ones we could count, ones we had 871 00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:48,120 Speaker 5: encounters with. We don't know how many guidaways have come through. 872 00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:50,520 Speaker 5: How many people on a terrorism watch list, at least 873 00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:53,399 Speaker 5: three hundred that we know. I think the actual number 874 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:55,719 Speaker 5: is close to fifteen million. So the point is we 875 00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:58,040 Speaker 5: can't really wait until next year to begin to address 876 00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:00,759 Speaker 5: all this. It has happened now to see us draw 877 00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:03,399 Speaker 5: the line and stand on that line and fight right 878 00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:06,160 Speaker 5: now to get that border security. We passed HR two, 879 00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:09,879 Speaker 5: our signature legislation eight months ago to Secure the Border Act. 880 00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:12,520 Speaker 5: It would do everything we need to do, you know, 881 00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:15,480 Speaker 5: fix the Brook and Corol system, the asylum reform, I mean, 882 00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:19,040 Speaker 5: reinstitute the Trump era, remain in Mexico policy, and catch 883 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:21,560 Speaker 5: and release, you know, finish the wall, all that's in there. 884 00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:23,799 Speaker 5: Every House Republican voter for that. We lobbed it over 885 00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:26,279 Speaker 5: the Senate it's been collecting dust on Chuck Schumer's desk 886 00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:28,480 Speaker 5: for eight month. We're going to push this, We're going 887 00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:30,920 Speaker 5: to force it through, and we're going to get transformational 888 00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:32,719 Speaker 5: policy change on that border. One way or the other. 889 00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:33,200 Speaker 4: We have to. 890 00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:34,400 Speaker 5: We have to do it for the country. 891 00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:36,960 Speaker 1: You mentioned, and I know you got a lease. That's 892 00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 1: the last question for you. You got to manage everything that's 893 00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:41,320 Speaker 1: going on in the House right now. You mentioned the 894 00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:44,319 Speaker 1: small majority you have, which is a tiny majority that 895 00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:48,439 Speaker 1: you inherited. What happened with Kevin McCarthy was it only 896 00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:51,279 Speaker 1: took four people to remove him. Are you concerned at 897 00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:53,719 Speaker 1: all that you're going to have the same issue with 898 00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:56,200 Speaker 1: four or five people and that they might vote to 899 00:44:56,360 --> 00:44:58,440 Speaker 1: try to remove you in the same way that they 900 00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:01,880 Speaker 1: did Kevin McCarthy, Or are you confident that's not going to 901 00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:04,600 Speaker 1: happen itself, that that prologue is not going to be 902 00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:07,800 Speaker 1: a preview for what happens to you as well. 903 00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:10,479 Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't. I don't waste a moment of time 904 00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:14,719 Speaker 5: being concerned about that. I'm working to govern. Look, everybody 905 00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:17,040 Speaker 5: here is there's a lot of emotion right now. There's 906 00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:20,279 Speaker 5: a lot of fervor and very thoughtful conversations, and that's 907 00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:22,520 Speaker 5: what we're doing. I mean, the people that moved to 908 00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:26,440 Speaker 5: VAK McCarthy and there's some my close colleagues and friends, 909 00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:28,200 Speaker 5: and so I bring everybody in and we talked through 910 00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:31,440 Speaker 5: the issues that Remember, they know that I am myself 911 00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:35,160 Speaker 5: a hardline conservative, and I bring that philosophy to the gabble. 912 00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:37,160 Speaker 5: And what we're doing right now is we've got to 913 00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:40,719 Speaker 5: we've got to advance that conservative philosophy under arguably the 914 00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:44,400 Speaker 5: most challenging circumstances in the institution. So we're not going 915 00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:46,359 Speaker 5: to get everything we get we want every single day. 916 00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:50,280 Speaker 5: It's incrementalism and having everybody understand that and be part 917 00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:52,840 Speaker 5: of the you know, advancing the ball is really important. 918 00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:55,640 Speaker 5: Not to wear out the football metaphor, but everybody needs 919 00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:57,560 Speaker 5: to know their place in the field, what their position is, 920 00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:00,320 Speaker 5: where they work in each play, and you can attack 921 00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:01,960 Speaker 5: or you're own quarterback and expect you're going to win 922 00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:04,000 Speaker 5: the game. Right, So we we talk about this tongue 923 00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:06,279 Speaker 5: in cheek, but everybody knows the stakes are so high. 924 00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:06,560 Speaker 7: Guys. 925 00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:08,040 Speaker 5: I think we're going to work together and get this 926 00:46:08,120 --> 00:46:10,719 Speaker 5: done and again we're gonna win that election. Second, be 927 00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:12,440 Speaker 5: in a much better position next time around. 928 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:15,920 Speaker 2: Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, mister Speaker, come back 929 00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:17,680 Speaker 2: again soon.
