1 00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:03,240 Speaker 1: This is Buck's first thoughts. The news you need to 2 00:00:03,279 --> 00:00:05,840 Speaker 1: get for your day in forty five minutes. Make sure 3 00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:08,520 Speaker 1: you subscribe on the iHeart app or wherever you get 4 00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:13,720 Speaker 1: your podcasts. I think it's time we start asking some 5 00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:16,919 Speaker 1: very important questions here about when we get our basic 6 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:20,400 Speaker 1: freedoms back. I'd really like to know when we can 7 00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:23,760 Speaker 1: count the days, or when can we set up some 8 00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:27,120 Speaker 1: kind of metric for when we don't have to listen 9 00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 1: to the COVID panic brigade anymore? About how we live 10 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:35,960 Speaker 1: our individual lives. If people want to stay locked away, 11 00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:39,600 Speaker 1: if they want to wait another year, they can stay home, 12 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:44,199 Speaker 1: especially once you've had what ninety days one hundred and 13 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:48,559 Speaker 1: twenty days to get the vaccine. At some point, we 14 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:51,360 Speaker 1: can't all be held hostage by this idea that the 15 00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 1: government can provide perfect safety, because it clearly can't. So 16 00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 1: you have to wonder what it's going to take. When 17 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 1: are people going to wake up and and understand that 18 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:04,319 Speaker 1: those who are calling the shots right now they don't 19 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:08,319 Speaker 1: care about any of this stuff. They don't care about 20 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 1: the destruction of the businesses, they don't care about your 21 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,280 Speaker 1: loss or freedom. They don't care that you have to 22 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 1: go walking in parks outside right now with a mask on, 23 00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 1: as if that's necessary, as if that's rooted in the science. 24 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: But if we don't ask the questions and force them 25 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:28,040 Speaker 1: to babble on with their BS answers, this doesn't stop 26 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 1: anytime soon. They keep saying, Oh, people think we're done 27 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: with this. Oh no, we don't think we're done, because 28 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 1: we know that the little tyrants aren't going to let go. 29 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: But there are tyrants online too, and as you know, 30 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: they're shutting down speech that they don't like all the time. 31 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: But you can do something about that. You can tell 32 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 1: the big tech corporations, you can tell the social media 33 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 1: giants enough is enough. By anonymizing your Internet activity, that 34 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 1: way you can surf the web freely without wondering who's 35 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 1: going to get ahold off your search history or reviewing 36 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 1: habits or what they'll do with that information. Do you 37 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,559 Speaker 1: want the government you're reading over your shoulder every time 38 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 1: you go online. I don't think so. There's never been 39 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: a more important time than now to protect your internet activity. 40 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 1: That's why I urge you to get Express VPN. When 41 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 1: you search for something online, you click a video, a link, 42 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,959 Speaker 1: it gets tracked by big tech companies and they will 43 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 1: sell this information and who knows what they'll do with 44 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 1: it down the line. That's why I use Express VPN 45 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 1: because companies can't see my IP address at all. My 46 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 1: identity is anonymized by a secure VPN server and my 47 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 1: data is encrypted for maximum protection.

Well, let's start with a very straightforward 56 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 1: question for doctor Fauci and all the people who act 57 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 1: like he's some kind of a pandemic hero, like he's 58 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 1: the guy who's known all along what we have to do. 59 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,359 Speaker 1: Just listen to Fauci and it all gets better. Let's 60 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: start with this question, when do we never have to 61 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: hear from him ever again? That's what I would want 62 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 1: to know. When will he just go away and or 63 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,839 Speaker 1: go back to being the old bureaucrat who will say 64 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 1: things like wash your hands, mitigate, you know, take mitigation measures. 65 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 1: When do we get to hear that about the flu, 66 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 1: not about COVID, because that's what this guy did for 67 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: like the last twenty years or so, a lot of 68 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 1: talk about the flu from him in the media. Once 69 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 1: a year, some local news outfit would put out a 70 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: story about, oh, doctor Fauci, who's the director of the 71 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 1: National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Disease. This guy is 72 00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: a middling bureaucrat at best, and he has been given 73 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: in more power and unaccountable power that than any than 74 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 1: honestly any federal government employee in my lifetime. I can't 75 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,839 Speaker 1: think of anybody else who's been able to tell you 76 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 1: you have to strap cloth over your face, you have 77 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 1: to restrict your breathing indoors outdoors, because he says so. 78 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 1: And what makes it worse is that the whole time, 79 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 1: there's this pretense that it's not really his decision. It's 80 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:32,279 Speaker 1: the politicians, you know, the policy makers. They're the ones 81 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: that are actually making it. No, that's that's not really true, 82 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 1: because they point at Fauci and say, it's the science, 83 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: the experts I'm just following the science, and the scientists say, 84 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,720 Speaker 1: I'm just letting the politicians know. You see the game, 85 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: nobody's accountable. Then nobody actually has to answer any real 86 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 1: questions about this. They just tell you shut up and 87 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 1: do what you're told. They've been telling us that for 88 00:04:54,160 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 1: a year. I am honestly appalled at how the American 89 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: people have gone along with this nonsense. I'm not saying 90 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 1: it's all nonsense. Okay, I've got a vaccine appointment. I 91 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 1: know that COVID's real. I just had it. Like I'm 92 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 1: when I say nonsense, I'm talking about masking up outside. 93 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,799 Speaker 1: I'm talking about masking up between bites. I'm talking about 94 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 1: telling us to forget that. For the last hundred years, 95 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: it never occurred to anybody to think that it was 96 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 1: some great public health measure to wear a mask all 97 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:32,039 Speaker 1: the time during respiratory virus season to save lots and 98 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 1: lots of lives. Right that somehow we just magically stumbled 99 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 1: upon this. Oh and it's not because there was a 100 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 1: revelation or some scientific advance about all of it. No, No, 101 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 1: it was a little over a year ago now that 102 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 1: people went into a panic and like some kind of 103 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 1: emotional security blanket. All of a sudden, The one thing 104 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 1: they thought they could do that would save them was masking, 105 00:05:56,400 --> 00:06:02,119 Speaker 1: because social distancing is preposterous. Just basically avoid human beings 106 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,719 Speaker 1: as much as you can. That's what the real guidance is. 107 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 1: Avoid being close to people, which obviously does not work 108 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:14,599 Speaker 1: as a policy. Avoiding people as a matter of science, Yeah, 109 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 1: of course, if you don't see anybody, you're not going 110 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:21,599 Speaker 1: to get a transmissible aerosolized virus from them. But we've 111 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:25,160 Speaker 1: been we've been dragged through madness here. If they just 112 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 1: they just clarify the CDC guidance on getting it from surfaces. 113 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 1: And one of the problems is that, yeah, theoretically a 114 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,600 Speaker 1: lot of things are possible, but you never worry about it. 115 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 1: You certainly don't base policy on it. Right, theoretically, we 116 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:45,359 Speaker 1: could be invaded by Norway next week. It you can't 117 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: tell me that can't happen. But we don't sit around 118 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 1: worried about that. We don't spend a lot of time 119 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 1: and resources concerned about that. But look at the way 120 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:59,600 Speaker 1: they even talk about surfaces and transmission of COVID on surfaces. 121 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: Now there's saying it's it's really, really really unlikely. It's 122 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,360 Speaker 1: like a one in ten thousand shot you're gonna get 123 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 1: it from. And you can't even really come up with 124 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 1: numbers to this, because what does that even mean. If 125 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 1: you're near somebody who has COVID, it's a one in 126 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 1: ten thousand chance you'll get it from a surface. But 127 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 1: the point is, in the early days of this, people 128 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 1: were wiping down their groceries with lysol. The food they 129 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: were eating, they were they were worried about. There were 130 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 1: all these panic porn stories about how frozen food shipped 131 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: from China as you know, COVID on it or something. 132 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 1: It was all nonsense, total nonsense. But oh no, now 133 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 1: they really know what to do. Now they really know. Look, 134 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 1: don't I don't rehash the past of the pandemic here 135 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 1: just as some kind of catharsis. Although it is fun 136 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 1: to point out what a clown Fauci has been and 137 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 1: how wrong he's been, I actually do it because I 138 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 1: want people to understand that they need they need this 139 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 1: this grip that the fauci Ies have over their minds 140 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 1: to release, because they're not going to just let it go. 141 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 1: They're not going to say, you know what you're right, 142 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: We've made a lot of poor decisions here. We're going 143 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 1: to allow human beings to just make their own determinations. 144 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 1: They won't do it. When do we get to go 145 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 1: back to normal? Now? This is going to be a 146 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 1: big debate. This is going to be a big fight 147 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 1: because their version of normal will be mostly allowed to 148 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 1: do things that you used to do before the pandemic. 149 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: But you're gonna have to get a booster vaccine every year, 150 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:40,559 Speaker 1: and you're gonna have to await the public health measures 151 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 1: that we come up with every year during flu season 152 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 1: to prevent flu and covid, and if we see a spike, 153 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 1: there's gonna be more shutdowns and lockdowns. And their version 154 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 1: of normal is that you get a little bit of 155 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:58,320 Speaker 1: your freedom back over time, but they can always still 156 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 1: take it away from you. They don't want to accept 157 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: that this was an entirely aberrant emergency session the last 158 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: twelve months, that we should all just completely reject going 159 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 1: forward as a means of living our lives. They have 160 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 1: not reached that point yet, and they can't even justify 161 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 1: what's been done up to this point. They don't even 162 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: they don't even have answers. You want, you want receipts, 163 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 1: so to speak. You want me to prove what I 164 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 1: mean by this? Doctor. Fauci was asked on Mourning Joe, 165 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:31,680 Speaker 1: which what do you have to know about Morning Joelo 166 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 1: than that's one of the favorite Faucci I'd hangouts. So 167 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:38,960 Speaker 1: people were so smart. Remember remember Mourning Joe himself last 168 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,679 Speaker 1: week going on some tirade like a lunatic about who 169 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,679 Speaker 1: all the stupid Trumpers won't get vaccines? And fine, you're 170 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:50,080 Speaker 1: a moron agural dealer. Really do you actually ever read 171 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 1: anything Joe Scarber? The answers, No, the guy's a buffoon. 172 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: He's really. It's embarrassing to know where the most vaccine 173 00:09:56,760 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: hesitancy actually is. It's not Trump supporters, not Trump supporters, 174 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 1: Joe Scarborough, you scum. But still it was fun to 175 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 1: go on that angry rant, you know, so righteousness. Yeah, 176 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: and having Mika go yeah, absolutely, absolutely, Mika's just there. Ah, 177 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, another case of nepotism. Fauci was asked 178 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: on that show about ignoring his advice on mask and 179 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 1: social distancing in Texas and how Texas is doing great, 180 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: actually doing great? He is The Fauci answer play too, Yeah, 181 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: you know it's It can be confusing because you may 182 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 1: see a lag and a delay because often you have 183 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 1: to wait a few weeks before you see the effect 184 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 1: of what you're doing right now. You know, there are 185 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 1: a lot of things that go into that. I mean, 186 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 1: when you say that they've they've had a lot of 187 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 1: activity on the outside, like ball games, I'm not really 188 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 1: quite sure. It could be they're doing things outdoors. You know, 189 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 1: it's very difficult to just one on one compare that. 190 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: You just have to see in the long range. I 191 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 1: hope they continue to tick down. If they do, that 192 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,320 Speaker 1: would be great, But there's always the concern when you 193 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:17,840 Speaker 1: pull back on methods, particularly things like indoor dining and 194 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 1: bars that are crowded, you can see a delay and 195 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden tick right back up. We've 196 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 1: been fooled before by situations where people begin to open up, 197 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 1: nothing happens, and then all of a sudden, several weeks later, 198 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,319 Speaker 1: things start exploding on you. So we've got to be careful. 199 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 1: We don't prematurely judge that premature you can't judge it 200 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:43,199 Speaker 1: pretty much. It's been four weeks, Vouch. It's been four 201 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: weeks Alreadyboddy going on week five. Here. Really, this is 202 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:51,080 Speaker 1: the equivalent. Fauci is the epidemiological equivalent of a guy 203 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 1: who tells you every day that stock is going to 204 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 1: go down, that stock is going to go down, and 205 00:11:56,800 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 1: it keeps going up and up and up, and then eventually, 206 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 1: after saying every day for a month or two months 207 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 1: that stock's going down, it does actually go down, because 208 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 1: that's just what happens. And he goes, see, I told 209 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:14,320 Speaker 1: you it's because of the public health measures. This guy 210 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 1: is atrocious, But people are so intellectually insecure they attached 211 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 1: themselves to him, and they can't they can't fathom for 212 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 1: a second, Wow, maybe he really doesn't know very much. 213 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 1: Maybe he isn't some policy epidemiology god who is leading 214 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 1: us down the right path this whole time. Maybe, in fact, 215 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 1: if we have allowed for a more state and local 216 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 1: improvisation without the entirety of the Democrat Party and the 217 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 1: corporate media terrifying everybody and leveraging this for political gain, 218 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,600 Speaker 1: we could have seen what actually works and what doesn't. 219 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 1: In fact, there's been some of that, as you know, 220 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,199 Speaker 1: with Florida and a few other states that refuse to 221 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 1: go along with the panic. But what does it look like. 222 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 1: I mean, they did this last June in states like 223 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,200 Speaker 1: New York, where I am so paying close attention to it. 224 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 1: They said, here's what we need for different phases of reopen. Right, 225 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 1: what does that look like? Nationally? They won't tell us. 226 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 1: Why not? They say that this is all about the numbers, 227 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 1: this is all about the science. How come they can't 228 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 1: explain to us what does it look like? Is it 229 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 1: cases at zero? Because that's insane, But that's kind of 230 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 1: the level they're they're setting us up for here that 231 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,960 Speaker 1: they'll keep doing stuff, they'll keep harassing and annoying everybody 232 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,520 Speaker 1: under the promise that they're saving so many lives. Right, 233 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 1: we have more than a half million people have died 234 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,440 Speaker 1: from COVID. But Faucci wants you to believe that the 235 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:41,439 Speaker 1: mitigation measures have been really successful, so we need to 236 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 1: keep them in place. God forbid we lose those mitigation 237 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 1: measures because the virus would spread and some people would 238 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:50,079 Speaker 1: die from it. Wait a second, that's already been happening 239 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,840 Speaker 1: all the time for the last year. And I know 240 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 1: they'd say, well, it would be so much worse. Really, 241 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 1: look at the numbers. At least thirty percent of the 242 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 1: country's been supposed to this and had it even without 243 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: knowing it. Based on the psurology testing and a simple 244 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 1: extrapolation of how many people have been infected nationwide for 245 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 1: cases that we catch versus cases cases that are actually proven. 246 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 1: Do you think that these people that are that are 247 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 1: showing up like Michael Auster Home and doctor Fauci and 248 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 1: Scott gott Leeb and these people you keep seeing on TV, 249 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 1: that they're all of a sudden really really smart and 250 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 1: wise and make great decisions. These people are feckless bureaucrats, 251 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 1: always have been. You know. It's like James Comey is 252 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: in charge of national health and therefore economic policy that 253 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 1: everyone goes, well, he was FBI director. Yeah, we all 254 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 1: know how that went. But they don't even force Fauchi 255 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 1: to answer the real questions, do they. Occasionally he gets 256 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: asked something and then he just babbles. What was his answer? 257 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 1: I played it for you a minute ago. You know, 258 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 1: it could be up, down, left, right, you know a 259 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 1: few weeks. You know what could happen is there could 260 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 1: be a plateau, and the plateau could go up, or 261 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 1: a plateau is flat, you know, like a pancake, and 262 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 1: it could stay there for a while, or maybe the 263 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 1: pancake gets a little fluffy, it gets bigger, then you 264 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 1: got a big plateau. I don't know. I doubt that 265 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 1: the federal government will be the main mover of a 266 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 1: vaccine passport concept. They may be involved in making sure 267 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: things are done fairly and equitably, but I doubt if 268 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 1: the federal government is going to be the leading element 269 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 1: of that. And I do believe that there will be 270 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:38,359 Speaker 1: individual entities that will do that. There may be theaters 271 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 1: that say you don't get in unless you have proof 272 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 1: of vaccination. There may be colleges or other educational institutions 273 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 1: that do that. I'm not saying they should or that 274 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 1: they would, but I'm saying you could foresee how an 275 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 1: independent entity might say, well, we can't be dealing with 276 00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 1: you unless we know you're vaccinated. But it's not going 277 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:03,160 Speaker 1: to be mandated from the federal government. Doctor Fauci there 278 00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 1: with the nice freedom you gut be a shame of 279 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 1: vaccine passports? Happened to it? Oh yeah, it's not. It's 280 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 1: not going to come as a mandate from the federal government. 281 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 1: They're just going to work behind the scenes as they're 282 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 1: already doing to do it. Via the private sector. That's right, 283 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: the threat of the public sector and the private sector 284 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:27,160 Speaker 1: now in politicize fashion, coming together. We're seeing that all 285 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: over the place, aren't we. They say, Oh, but the 286 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 1: private sector can do whatever it wants when they're in power. 287 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 1: That's the left's attitude about it. All of a sudden, 288 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:39,680 Speaker 1: the Left is hyper regulatory in every sense when they're 289 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 1: not getting their way. But the moment that they actually 290 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 1: have their people calling the shots, there's no there's no 291 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 1: sense of share principle or fair play or even constitutional protection. 292 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:51,320 Speaker 1: If they can find a way around it, they'll do 293 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 1: whatever they can, whatever they have to do, deal with it. 294 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 1: They're winning, they're in charge. That's their attitude. And now 295 00:16:57,320 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 1: you see they don't want the Biden administration to take 296 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 1: the heat for accine passports. You know why, Well, because 297 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:05,880 Speaker 1: there's a lot of vaccine hesitancy among the minority community, 298 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 1: and there are a lot of minority community members who 299 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 1: are Biden voters. And so as much as they would 300 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:17,919 Speaker 1: love to make this about crushing the Maga anti science people, 301 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 1: they are smart enough to figure out, i mean, the 302 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:25,120 Speaker 1: Fauciites and the Biden administration to figure out that vaccine 303 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:28,239 Speaker 1: passports are going to cause problems for a lot of 304 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:32,639 Speaker 1: people that are Democrat voters in Democrat constituents, and so 305 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 1: it's not actually a red state maga hat wearing you 306 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:40,200 Speaker 1: slap down. It's going to affect a lot of people. 307 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 1: So what are they going to do. They're gonna try 308 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:45,159 Speaker 1: to make this. They're going to outsource the tyranny to 309 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 1: the private sector. That's the plan. They're going to make 310 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 1: every every in every way they can. They're gonna because 311 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: they're just putting out the information. I mean, you know, 312 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,239 Speaker 1: they're just they're just putting out the information. You know, 313 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 1: you know, maybe maybe you need to do this. I 314 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 1: don't know, you know, maybe the private sector will come 315 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:05,119 Speaker 1: along and make the terminations about this. Keep in mind, folks, 316 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 1: that the vaccines, from what we've already seen, there's a 317 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,479 Speaker 1: chance that they're going to require booster shots down the line. 318 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 1: I'm even seeing that there are places now that for 319 00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:19,399 Speaker 1: travel purposes, require you to get a negative PCR test 320 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:24,159 Speaker 1: even if you're vaccinated, and you have to get vaccinated, 321 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:26,720 Speaker 1: even if you've already had the virus like I have. 322 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:33,719 Speaker 1: This a year ago would have been considered insane because 323 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:38,879 Speaker 1: it's unreasonable all this policy is based now is being 324 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 1: based upon unreasonable safety measures. Right. This is now. It's 325 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 1: as though the people, the idiots who came up with 326 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:51,719 Speaker 1: the beeping noise on trucks when they go backwards that 327 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:53,359 Speaker 1: you know, you can't turn it off. Beep beep. By 328 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 1: by the way, plenty of times people are getting hit 329 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:57,639 Speaker 1: by trucks that with the beeping on because they're so 330 00:18:57,720 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 1: used to hearing it they don't care. But those people, 331 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 1: it's like it's like the worst elements of OSHA or 332 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 1: something are running national It's not just virus policy, it's 333 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:09,879 Speaker 1: national economic policy. This is the whole country. This is 334 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:14,680 Speaker 1: our ability to open up. This is your ability to 335 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 1: go for a walk in the park without having a 336 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 1: mask on. Do you realize they were shutting down parks 337 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:22,920 Speaker 1: in some place in this country because of the sawiance. 338 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 1: These people are out of their minds. There is no data, 339 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:30,400 Speaker 1: no data whatsoever to show that it is a reasonable 340 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:36,439 Speaker 1: concern that you're going to get the virus outdoors from people. None. 341 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:39,800 Speaker 1: Now what they do is they say, oh, well, here's 342 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:43,400 Speaker 1: a case. We found a case. There's seven billion people 343 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 1: in the world. Yeah, I'm sure there are cases of 344 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 1: all kinds of things that happen. But you don't build 345 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:55,920 Speaker 1: your entire COVID policy around the lightning strike. You don't 346 00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:58,679 Speaker 1: build your entire COVID policy around well, you know, I 347 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 1: was vaccinated, but I but I still got the virus. Okay, Well, 348 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:05,800 Speaker 1: if you're one in fifty thousand people, sometimes that's you know, 349 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 1: just the way the things go down, that's the way 350 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:11,639 Speaker 1: it happens. We don't all live our lives with all 351 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 1: but even if you're vauction or you could still get 352 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 1: it or give it people, no, no, no, or just 353 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 1: get used to this, Get used to more of these 354 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 1: feckless bureaucrats, these these imbeciles who want to just poke 355 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 1: and prod at you, like the little busybody tyrants they are. 356 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:31,240 Speaker 1: They want to you know, they're gonna kick your two 357 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,639 Speaker 1: year old off a plane because she's not mass like 358 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,400 Speaker 1: they did as Spirit Airlines, or get ready for that, 359 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 1: because they're not giving this up. They're gonna they're gonna 360 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 1: they're gonna pull back a little bit on the measures, 361 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 1: but they want to be able to reinstitute them at 362 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 1: any point in time. That's the world we're gonna be 363 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: living in now, anytime. The public health measures have to 364 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 1: come back based on completely unreasonable risk parameters. Mask up, baby, 365 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,880 Speaker 1: get ready for it. Not just this summer, next year, 366 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:05,119 Speaker 1: the year after that, major League Baseball moves it's game, 367 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 1: and we'll get into where it has moved the All 368 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 1: Star Game for this summer, because that's certainly going to 369 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:14,120 Speaker 1: be something that it's gonna be tough to explain if 370 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,439 Speaker 1: you care about facts, which the woke crowd does not. 371 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 1: They just want what they want and they want it 372 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 1: as soon as they want it, and it's about the 373 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 1: mob mentality. But after all the stuff that we heard 374 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 1: after how important it was for us to make sure 375 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:32,439 Speaker 1: that Major League Baseball didn't have the game in Georgia 376 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 1: to punish the state of Georgia, which just went for 377 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 1: a Democrat, just went for two Democrat senators and a 378 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:43,680 Speaker 1: Democrat in the presidential election. Now it has to be punished, 379 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: but it just goes to show you that it doesn't 380 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:49,399 Speaker 1: have to be reasonable criticism and the kind of stuff 381 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:51,920 Speaker 1: that can be used to shut you down, the kind 382 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:54,160 Speaker 1: of things that will get you in trouble and perhaps 383 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 1: even make you the target of the woke mob. Doesn't 384 00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:00,359 Speaker 1: that be rooted in fact and just be whatever the 385 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:04,399 Speaker 1: mob decides, And if you've tried to share your opinions 386 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 1: politically on social media lately, you know it's really hard 387 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:11,199 Speaker 1: to have a civil conversation, and you also never know 388 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 1: what kind of spies are out there looking at everything 389 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 1: you say to try to maybe use it against you. Well, 390 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:18,439 Speaker 1: luckily there's caucus from dot com now. This is a 391 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:22,920 Speaker 1: social media network exclusively for conservatives.

But as a textan, let me 410 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 1: say that I'm a great sports fan of all of 411 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:32,960 Speaker 1: our teams across the state, A bailer and universe of 412 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: Houston bailer one last night, but I think it was 413 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:39,440 Speaker 1: a disaster and I'm enormously disappointed, and it was a confrontation, 414 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 1: a wrong confrontation in the face of reality, A confrontation 415 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 1: in the face of reality because Texas Rangers Stadium had 416 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:57,120 Speaker 1: people in it last night. Oh my gosh, no way, 417 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 1: you've got to be kidding me. No, Oh, it's so 418 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:04,400 Speaker 1: so awful that people were going to a baseball game 419 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 1: without all the social where's the social distancing? Oh my gosh, 420 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 1: where are the little petals for your feet so you 421 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 1: know where to stand? What do you do about the petals? 422 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:18,400 Speaker 1: And you need to have I mean, honestly, why don't 423 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 1: we just get even more absurd? There are a couple 424 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 1: of ways we can go. You can take my approach here, 425 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:27,159 Speaker 1: and you can fight against the madness and the absurdity 426 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: in whatever ways you can. Or maybe we just get 427 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 1: so crazy, maybe we take their logic and turn the 428 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 1: heat up so much that the lockdown left the faucia 429 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 1: Ites finally decide, Okay, well, well that's crazy. We can't 430 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:42,879 Speaker 1: do that. You know. Fine, Let's have Texas Ranger Stadium open, 431 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:48,360 Speaker 1: and we can have people walking around with measuring tape, 432 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 1: with measuring tape making sure that they're you know, six 433 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 1: feet apart, but you know in schools it's now three 434 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 1: feet apart. And what is all this based off of 435 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 1: rough estimate's? You know again, the thing about vaccines is 436 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:05,440 Speaker 1: that at least you can look at hard data, real numbers. 437 00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:09,680 Speaker 1: There's no hard data about whether three feet or five feet, 438 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 1: or what kind of distancing or anything else. In fact, 439 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:15,480 Speaker 1: the only real data we have about transmission outside is 440 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 1: that it's almost impossible. But because I can't say a 441 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:25,479 Speaker 1: hundred percent impossible, that leaves the crack in the damn 442 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:29,160 Speaker 1: for the Fauciite madness. Oh you can't. It's not fact check, 443 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 1: not true. You need mitigation because one in one hundred 444 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 1: thousand one in one hundred thousand people, you know, in 445 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,719 Speaker 1: this place where they could get it. So if one 446 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 1: one hundred thouars, you can't take that risk. And that's 447 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 1: where we are. That is what we're seeing here, the 448 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:54,440 Speaker 1: Fauciites running around you. Oh no, we're all supposed to 449 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,920 Speaker 1: be so upset. Texas Rangers Stadium. What's gonna happen now? 450 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:01,919 Speaker 1: All the libs and the journos and they're playing baseball 451 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 1: in a packed house. They're so upset. You know. This 452 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:08,399 Speaker 1: is the only way this gets this gets better is 453 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 1: if we finally say, wait a second, look at Texas, 454 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:17,200 Speaker 1: look at Florida, Look at states that are opening. They're 455 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 1: doing just fine. They're not having a surge. A plateau 456 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:26,360 Speaker 1: turns into a surge. No, they're just letting people live 457 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 1: their lives. And it's okay. It's not perfect, but it's okay. 458 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,000 Speaker 1: We can do that again. This is the only way. 459 00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 1: That's why I'm so happy to see that the governor 460 00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:45,960 Speaker 1: of Texas, Abbott, has banned vaccine passports. Here he is 461 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:51,920 Speaker 1: play clip four. Every day Texans return to normalcy as 462 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 1: more people get the COVID vaccine. In fact, this week, 463 00:26:56,240 --> 00:27:01,399 Speaker 1: Texas will surpass thirteen million AT doses administered. Those shots 464 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:07,399 Speaker 1: help slow the spread of COVID, reduce hospitalizations, and reduce fatalities. 465 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: But as I have said all along, these vaccines are 466 00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 1: always voluntary and never forced. Government should not require any 467 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 1: Texan to show proof of vaccination and reveal private health 468 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,720 Speaker 1: information just to go about their daily lives. That is 469 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 1: why I issued an executive order that prohibits government mandated 470 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 1: vaccine passports in Texas. We will continue to vaccinate more 471 00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:40,880 Speaker 1: Texans and protect public health, and we will do so 472 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:47,399 Speaker 1: without treading on texans personal freedoms. Like I said, the 473 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 1: only way they have to finally remove their grip off 474 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:56,160 Speaker 1: your throat, off your face. The lockdowners with their little 475 00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:59,120 Speaker 1: masks and double masks, why not triple mask? They don't 476 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,040 Speaker 1: have an answer if it saves one life, and I 477 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,680 Speaker 1: don't strap on three masks to make it four masks. 478 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:08,359 Speaker 1: And yet the only way that it really goes away 479 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,679 Speaker 1: is if there are states where people don't have to 480 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:12,480 Speaker 1: deal with the stupid it anymore, don't have to deal 481 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 1: with the madness. Large states with with you know, sizable populations, sorry, 482 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:19,360 Speaker 1: I mean you know. South Dakota is a great place 483 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:23,399 Speaker 1: but South Dakota has a population density similar to you know, 484 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 1: the islands of Micronesia. It's not the same thing, so 485 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:32,680 Speaker 1: it's different because density does matter for these things. But Texas, Florida, 486 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 1: those are big states, big populations, and when they say, okay, yeah, 487 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 1: we're still going to get the vaccines out there to people, 488 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 1: but we're also going to stop the unnecessary agitations in 489 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 1: irritations that people have to suffer through because some people 490 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,920 Speaker 1: are so scared all the time. You know, in the 491 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 1: state of Florida, you're looking at counties now where they 492 00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 1: have seventy five percent of people are vaccinated. Once we 493 00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 1: get that number closer to you know, ninety percent, then 494 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 1: you can assume that the overall hospitalizations and fatalities from 495 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:08,400 Speaker 1: COVID are going to absolutely plumb it. They're already going down, 496 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:11,200 Speaker 1: they're already going in the right direction, but they're going 497 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 1: to plummet. And we are now at the point where 498 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 1: we can see it and all this other stuff they're doing. 499 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 1: The vaccines and herd immunity are what's getting us out 500 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 1: of this. The other stuff is theater. That's the essential 501 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 1: point here. This othery're all you know, you gotta mask 502 00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 1: up between bites, mask up outside social distance. Wash your hands. 503 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 1: You don't hear as much about washing hands anymore because 504 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:38,120 Speaker 1: they estimate it was in a New York post piece today. 505 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 1: Your chance of getting this from surfaces is like one 506 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:42,959 Speaker 1: in ten thousand cases or something. If that, I mean, 507 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 1: it's it's tiny. Oh that's so weird because I remember 508 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 1: when when you couldn't actually get purell. And by the way, 509 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 1: I've been I'm just gonna say this, and everyone who 510 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 1: knows me knows this. I've been a hand sanitizer. I've 511 00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 1: been mocking hand sanitizer obsession for a long time or 512 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:04,040 Speaker 1: something like. This is not what's saving people, folks. Okay, 513 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:07,719 Speaker 1: it's not Oh, gott to use the hand sanitizer or else. 514 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 1: Who'll be in a plateau and then you'll get a 515 00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 1: surge no hand sanitizer, you know, and they give it 516 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 1: out to you, and they give it to me when 517 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 1: I get on a plane. This is theater. The data 518 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,000 Speaker 1: actually shows this is theater. There's no question about this 519 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 1: is gonna need hand sanitizer. It's not saving you from 520 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 1: the virus. It's theoretically possible. A lot of things are 521 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 1: theoretically possible. Got to open up places and show And 522 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:36,400 Speaker 1: the thing is, I believe there's also a real incentive 523 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:38,479 Speaker 1: for many of the people that have been big faunci 524 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 1: and lockdown proponents. They don't want to see what happens 525 00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:47,960 Speaker 1: when places open up more because we'll have even better 526 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 1: data sets to show how much of the annoying stuff. Basically, 527 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:55,280 Speaker 1: we had all this infection and it was terrible. We 528 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 1: had all these hospitalizations in death. But their premise along 529 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 1: has been to make life more miserable, more lonely, more 530 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:06,880 Speaker 1: awful for all of us because it's saving us. The 531 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 1: more we see that we were gonna have a lot 532 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 1: of infections and this was going to spread across the 533 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 1: country regardless, you know, the more it becomes clear that 534 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:17,320 Speaker 1: they're gonna have to make defenses like they have of 535 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,720 Speaker 1: masking mask mandates where the CDC zone numbers say it's 536 00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 1: about a one percent reduction in cases, really and that's 537 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:26,479 Speaker 1: within the margin of error, so it could be no 538 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 1: reduction in cases. Is that what we were promised? You know, 539 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,240 Speaker 1: That's why we had all this mask propaganda all the 540 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:35,480 Speaker 1: time everywhere, because it was going to reduce it one 541 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,360 Speaker 1: percent one point five percent. That's from the CDC's numbers. 542 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 1: That's what the mask mandates have done. Now, you could 543 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 1: say that they can come up with some lab experiment 544 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 1: where somebody wears a mask perfectly and they only deal 545 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 1: with one mist of spray, but those aren't actually real 546 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:52,760 Speaker 1: world numbers. That's what people don't understand or haven't understood 547 00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:56,280 Speaker 1: in this, that we don't live in laboratories, we don't 548 00:31:56,320 --> 00:32:01,920 Speaker 1: live in clinical settings. Anyway, I'm happy to see there 549 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:05,320 Speaker 1: are some people that are finally waking up to this. 550 00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:07,160 Speaker 1: I'm happy to see there are some people who are 551 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:12,600 Speaker 1: understanding that you're going we're gonna have to stop the madness. 552 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 1: It's not just going to fade out. You're gonna have 553 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 1: to finally say sorry, mask shamer, back off. And we 554 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 1: need some states where they say this is no longer 555 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:24,719 Speaker 1: the law. So then the mass champions cancer. It's a law. 556 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 1: It's for your health. And I was in the gym yesterday. 557 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 1: Nobody in the gym, you know, over the age honestly 558 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 1: of forty. They were about eight of us in there, 559 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:39,200 Speaker 1: and I mean everyone's you know, sweating, and you know 560 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 1: their mass is coming down for a second as there, 561 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 1: and then they got to pull it back up and 562 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 1: all the stuff I'm sitting here, this is just it 563 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:49,600 Speaker 1: just adds to our anxiety. It's dehumanizing. It makes us 564 00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 1: look at each other as though we're all just vectors 565 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:56,480 Speaker 1: of disease. It's so stupid. And if it wasn't so stupid, 566 00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 1: they wouldn't have just come up with this as a 567 00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 1: panic policy less than a year ago. That's all you 568 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:05,480 Speaker 1: have to know. But people I know they think that 569 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 1: because they think I'm crazy. Well that's that's fine. I 570 00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:12,960 Speaker 1: wore my mask pointlessly for as much as I did, 571 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 1: and I still got sick, I still got COVID. And 572 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:17,200 Speaker 1: that's really the reality of what we've all been through 573 00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 1: as a country for the last year. Is the President 574 00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:22,800 Speaker 1: going to have changed the way that he talks about 575 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 1: the new Georgia voting law, because in that interview that 576 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:31,080 Speaker 1: you referenced, he said below an end voting at five 577 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:33,400 Speaker 1: o'clock when working people are just getting ops, And he 578 00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 1: said it would end voting hours early, so working people 579 00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:39,760 Speaker 1: can't past their vote after their shift is over. But 580 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:45,280 Speaker 1: the Washington Post gave that plane four pinocchios because that's 581 00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:49,640 Speaker 1: part of the law gives counties the option to extend 582 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 1: voting hours, and so I'm curious if the president is 583 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 1: going to change the way. Well, fundamentally, the President doesn't 584 00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 1: believe it should be made harder to vote. He believes 585 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:03,000 Speaker 1: it should be easier. And this spill makes it harder 586 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:06,320 Speaker 1: to request and return an absentee ballot, It collapses the 587 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,840 Speaker 1: length of Georgia's runoff election, making it harder for a 588 00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:12,400 Speaker 1: large jerg astictions to offer early voting, and imposes rigid 589 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:16,040 Speaker 1: new restrictions on local officials ability to set pulling hours 590 00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 1: to suit the needs of voters in their county. Those 591 00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 1: are all pieces of the bill. So his view is 592 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:23,560 Speaker 1: that we need to make it easier and not harder 593 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:25,400 Speaker 1: to vote, and that will continue to be what he 594 00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:27,960 Speaker 1: advocates for. Yeah, so I'm just like not going to 595 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 1: address the fact that the President is just like lying 596 00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:33,040 Speaker 1: about stuff here, because like, let's just make it about 597 00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:35,839 Speaker 1: the broad strokes, you know, which is that it makes 598 00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:39,600 Speaker 1: it harder. Okay, they know that they're a little bit 599 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 1: caught on this one. They know this doesn't look good. 600 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:45,719 Speaker 1: They know they've got a problem. And so with that, 601 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:50,719 Speaker 1: I turn around and I tell you you have to 602 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 1: now look at the moves that are being taken that 603 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:56,680 Speaker 1: Biden was very supportive of. They act like he wasn't supportive. 604 00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:58,800 Speaker 1: They're trying to rewrite history, and the media goes along 605 00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:02,399 Speaker 1: with it. But they are rewriting history here because Biden 606 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:04,960 Speaker 1: was supportive of Major League Baseball moving the All Star Game, 607 00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:08,760 Speaker 1: and this is symbolic of the entire woke mindset. They're 608 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:15,359 Speaker 1: moving the baseball game from Atlanta, Georgia to Denver, Colorado. 609 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 1: We've got a great radio station, ninety three free to 610 00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:21,640 Speaker 1: ninety three seven in Denver that carries this show, and 611 00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:24,920 Speaker 1: we're very thankful for a partnership. We also have a 612 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,919 Speaker 1: huge audience on that station, which we appreciate because we've 613 00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:33,800 Speaker 1: got a wonderful Team Buck Squad in the Denver area 614 00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 1: and the Colorado well in the state of Colorado in general. 615 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 1: So I'm happy for you guys. You're getting the All 616 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:40,719 Speaker 1: Star Game for those of you who like baseball. You know, 617 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:43,719 Speaker 1: producer Mark loves baseball, and so good for you. But 618 00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:47,920 Speaker 1: if we're going to compare election laws, and I'm sure 619 00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 1: the Denver residents listening or the Colorado residents listening to this, no, 620 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:57,040 Speaker 1: this already turns out that even under this bill, Georgia 621 00:35:57,080 --> 00:36:01,680 Speaker 1: has more early voting days than Colorado. Colorado has a 622 00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:06,279 Speaker 1: voter id requirement in place. So what they've done is 623 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:09,080 Speaker 1: they created a whole narrative. The Democrats created a whole 624 00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 1: narrative around the state of Georgia, and then they moved 625 00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:21,000 Speaker 1: based upon that, they took action to punish Georgia. And 626 00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:23,320 Speaker 1: now the moment that you step back and you see 627 00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 1: what their punishment has resulted in, it just shows you 628 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:29,759 Speaker 1: what a bunch of phonies and hypocrites they are. Oh, 629 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:32,759 Speaker 1: that's right, Georgia is so awful. It's Jim Crow two 630 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:37,000 Speaker 1: point Oh. I mean, it's embarrassing to even repeat. This 631 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:40,839 Speaker 1: is a quote from Joe Biden, Jim Crow on steroids. 632 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 1: It's embarrassing to even repeat the thing that the President 633 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:50,319 Speaker 1: of the United States said on this. And now you 634 00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:54,600 Speaker 1: see what their response is. Now you see what they 635 00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:58,920 Speaker 1: decide to do as a result of it, and you realize, oh, 636 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 1: so this was just for show. This was just silly. 637 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:09,080 Speaker 1: It wasn't really about Georgia being such a bad state 638 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:12,880 Speaker 1: that's not taking the necessary actions, you know, Georgia being 639 00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:18,360 Speaker 1: a state that is making everything so much heart No, no, 640 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:24,480 Speaker 1: it was we want to mobilize the base we want 641 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:32,319 Speaker 1: to mobilize the woke, and we're giving them something to 642 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:35,400 Speaker 1: to go after. Here. It doesn't matter that it's not true, 643 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:40,440 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter that it's unfair. This is classic Olynsky. 644 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:44,879 Speaker 1: We're gonna have to start talking more about Saul Alynsky 645 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 1: on this show. And and I think that everyone's going 646 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 1: to start to realize that when you understand the way 647 00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:56,799 Speaker 1: community organizers do their business, you understand the way the 648 00:37:56,840 --> 00:38:03,279 Speaker 1: Democrat Party and the media work together, and this and here, 649 00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:05,719 Speaker 1: I remember some of the rules for radicals, right, A 650 00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:10,840 Speaker 1: good tactic is one your people enjoy. A good tactic 651 00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:15,000 Speaker 1: is one people your people enjoy. That's why social media 652 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:17,400 Speaker 1: on virtue signaling, that's straight out of that's actually a 653 00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:23,680 Speaker 1: rule for radicals from Saul Linsky. That's one that you 654 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,799 Speaker 1: see with all the social media posting. Right, people do 655 00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:29,200 Speaker 1: this and they feel like they're part of a group. 656 00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:32,799 Speaker 1: They're yeah, George is so racist with these laws. And 657 00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:35,399 Speaker 1: it's Jim Crewe on steroids, and look what Biden said 658 00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 1: and pull the All Star Game and all these companies, 659 00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 1: all these corporations, they get joy out of it too. 660 00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:44,040 Speaker 1: They're senior officers, you know, the people that actually run 661 00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:48,760 Speaker 1: these companies. They get to go to their fancy golf club, 662 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,840 Speaker 1: they get to go to their fancy country club, and 663 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:56,520 Speaker 1: people there, the people who know what what bullcrap it is, 664 00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:59,000 Speaker 1: will just keep to themselves because we just leave people alone. 665 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:02,960 Speaker 1: That's the conservative mentality. But the Libs in their midstal 666 00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:08,520 Speaker 1: confrom yeah, you're standing up for voting rights. Yeah, A 667 00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:11,360 Speaker 1: good tactic is when your people enjoy and ridicules man's 668 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:14,120 Speaker 1: most potent weapon. This is why the left does not 669 00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 1: allow jokes anymore. Every joke, every joke is sexist, every 670 00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 1: joke is racist, every joke is something that is literally violence, 671 00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:27,880 Speaker 1: because when you start to make fun of these people, 672 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:31,200 Speaker 1: they lose their power. I'm talking about the left, I'm 673 00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:33,279 Speaker 1: talking about Democrats. When you start to make fun of 674 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:38,479 Speaker 1: the stupidity of Joe Biden here on things like moving 675 00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:42,000 Speaker 1: the Major League Baseball game because of it being Jim 676 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:43,759 Speaker 1: Crow on steroids. I mean, there were a whole bunch 677 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:45,160 Speaker 1: of things that he said, but all of them were 678 00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:47,400 Speaker 1: really dumb. And then you see they move it to 679 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:50,400 Speaker 1: a state with even more restrictive By the way, restrictive 680 00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:52,640 Speaker 1: is such a loaded term in this regard. All elections 681 00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:55,920 Speaker 1: are restricted to US citizens, to people of a certain aid, 682 00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 1: to people who live in a certain district or in 683 00:39:57,640 --> 00:40:00,600 Speaker 1: a certain state. There's restrictions of all kinds voting as 684 00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:03,319 Speaker 1: a process. This would be like saying, oh, you know, 685 00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:06,560 Speaker 1: it's not fair we lost that baseball game. But but 686 00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:09,680 Speaker 1: there's so many restrictions in baseball. You know you gotta 687 00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:12,759 Speaker 1: hit before you run, and you gotta well, yeah, that 688 00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:17,240 Speaker 1: is the process. To call it restrictive is stupid, doesn't 689 00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:21,399 Speaker 1: mean anything. But a good tactic is when your people 690 00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:26,200 Speaker 1: enjoy in virtue signaling is delightful for the libs. What 691 00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:29,440 Speaker 1: happened to Virginia. It's a state where I actually have 692 00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:32,000 Speaker 1: family lives in Virginia. It's spent a lot of time 693 00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:34,800 Speaker 1: there when I worked at the CIA in Northern Virginia, 694 00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:37,279 Speaker 1: and it's a place that we used to think of 695 00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:39,920 Speaker 1: is at least purple, but now it feels pretty blue. 696 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:42,680 Speaker 1: And some of the policies going on there are also 697 00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:45,880 Speaker 1: what you'd expect in a place like New York or California. 698 00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:49,680 Speaker 1: Can this be turned around? We've got somebody that says yes. 699 00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:53,120 Speaker 1: Glenny Junkin is with us now. He is the former 700 00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:56,320 Speaker 1: co CEO of the car Log group. He's a native 701 00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:59,239 Speaker 1: Virginia and he's running for governor. You could talk to 702 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:01,200 Speaker 1: us about a eight that we got to put back 703 00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:04,879 Speaker 1: in play. Glenn, thanks so much for joining us, Buck, 704 00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:06,600 Speaker 1: thank you for having me. And you hit it right 705 00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:11,000 Speaker 1: on the nose. Virginia has really moved so far left 706 00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:13,560 Speaker 1: over the last few years since the Democrats took over 707 00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:17,480 Speaker 1: our House and Senate and the governorship. And that's why 708 00:41:17,520 --> 00:41:20,440 Speaker 1: I'm running because I just don't recognize her, and I 709 00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:23,600 Speaker 1: think it doesn't reflect really where Virginia should be. Could 710 00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:25,440 Speaker 1: be in Wilby, because it used to be the best 711 00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:27,960 Speaker 1: state in America to live and work and raise a family. 712 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:30,360 Speaker 1: And I just decided last summer I was going to 713 00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:33,200 Speaker 1: quit my job and really focus on putting her back there, 714 00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:35,239 Speaker 1: put her back where she belongs. Is that best state 715 00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:37,880 Speaker 1: to be in now. Virginia is one of a handful 716 00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:40,839 Speaker 1: of states that in the last couple election cycles. I mean, 717 00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:42,840 Speaker 1: George obviously comes to my George's getting a lot of 718 00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:45,360 Speaker 1: attention right now because of what happened with Major League Baseball, 719 00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:50,279 Speaker 1: But Virginia it feels pretty solid blue now, and that's 720 00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:53,640 Speaker 1: certainly not trending the way that any conservatives wanted to 721 00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:56,840 Speaker 1: what happened tell us that, first, how is it that 722 00:41:56,920 --> 00:41:59,560 Speaker 1: you went from being a state where it felt like 723 00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:02,399 Speaker 1: there was a pretty good chance of a GOP when 724 00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:05,960 Speaker 1: you go back the Bush administration to now it's pretty 725 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:09,400 Speaker 1: much top to bottom at the state house level, blue control, 726 00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:12,279 Speaker 1: isn't it. It is, sadly, and it doesn't have to 727 00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:15,359 Speaker 1: be that way. In fact, what's happened in Virginia over 728 00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:18,920 Speaker 1: the course of the last roughly ten years is that 729 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:23,400 Speaker 1: we have had a demographic shift where, particularly in Northern Virginia, 730 00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:27,640 Speaker 1: we've seen the minority population become the majority population. And 731 00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:30,800 Speaker 1: yet the Republican Party has not done a good job 732 00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:34,839 Speaker 1: at all in engaging with minority populations who, oh, by 733 00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:38,840 Speaker 1: the way, have conservative values and just want to be 734 00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:40,840 Speaker 1: listened to. And so that's one of the things that 735 00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:45,080 Speaker 1: we are doing very very intently, is engaging with minority 736 00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:48,080 Speaker 1: populations all over the Commonwealth. And what I hear over 737 00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:52,200 Speaker 1: and over again is we actually have Republicans shared values. 738 00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:55,400 Speaker 1: We believe in the things that Republicans believe in, but 739 00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:58,439 Speaker 1: we just haven't had the engagement from the Republican Party 740 00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:02,120 Speaker 1: in a long time. That has been really encouraging. When 741 00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:05,000 Speaker 1: I hear that message from folks all over Virginia who 742 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:07,640 Speaker 1: are ready to vote Republican and just want to make 743 00:43:07,680 --> 00:43:10,440 Speaker 1: sure that there's a good notorial candidate that listens to 744 00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:16,000 Speaker 1: them and understands their desires to have small government, low taxes, 745 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:21,680 Speaker 1: low regulations, standing up for our constitutional rights, a strong defense. 746 00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:27,239 Speaker 1: I mean, these are Republican values shared by the minority communities, 747 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:29,120 Speaker 1: and yet we just haven't engaged with them. And that's 748 00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:31,600 Speaker 1: one of the big things that I'm doing in our campaign. 749 00:43:31,600 --> 00:43:34,080 Speaker 1: We're speaking to Glenn young Kin. He's formerly the co 750 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:36,960 Speaker 1: CEO of the Carlisle Group, and he is running for 751 00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:40,319 Speaker 1: governor of Virginia, which the race is at a little 752 00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:42,080 Speaker 1: bit off into the distance right now, folks, but it's 753 00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:43,960 Speaker 1: going to come up very quickly. In Virginia is a 754 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,960 Speaker 1: critical state for us to start to show some conservative 755 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:49,759 Speaker 1: gains in after what feels like a lot of a 756 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:52,000 Speaker 1: lot of losses for a number of years now. And 757 00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:57,600 Speaker 1: your state, politically, unfortunately, is perhaps most well known these 758 00:43:57,680 --> 00:44:01,080 Speaker 1: days for having a governor who falls in this category, 759 00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:03,960 Speaker 1: Governor Ralph Northam. Of how the heck did this guy 760 00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:07,760 Speaker 1: even keep his job, never mind even get the job? 761 00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:12,520 Speaker 1: What has the Northam regime meant for the state of Virginia. 762 00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:18,439 Speaker 1: It's meant an enormous amount of challenge and candidly embarrassment. 763 00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:24,040 Speaker 1: And this is why the entire Commonwealth of Virginia seems 764 00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:27,360 Speaker 1: to really be paying attention to disselection and ready to 765 00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:33,160 Speaker 1: elect a Republican governor. What Governor Northam has done, both 766 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 1: personally in his behavior but also what he has allowed legislatively, 767 00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:43,919 Speaker 1: has really been terrible for Virginia. We first have all 768 00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:46,560 Speaker 1: of the issues around how he's handled the pandemic. He's 769 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:52,480 Speaker 1: kept our state closed unnecessarily. Our schools are still seventy 770 00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:56,400 Speaker 1: percent partially or fully closed for student in person education. 771 00:44:56,920 --> 00:45:01,839 Speaker 1: It has absolutely disadvantaged Virginia's kids, hurt families, and it's 772 00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:06,319 Speaker 1: unnecessary and it's unnecessary, and yet he still continues to 773 00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:09,160 Speaker 1: not make a statement about getting our schools open. Now, 774 00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:13,160 Speaker 1: he's kept businesses closed unnecessarily. We had one point five 775 00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:18,279 Speaker 1: million Virginians file for first time unemployment benefits last year, 776 00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:21,359 Speaker 1: and in my view, it was wholly unnecessary to keep 777 00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:23,680 Speaker 1: the clamp down on business the way he did. You 778 00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:27,560 Speaker 1: look at a state like Florida that was much more 779 00:45:27,680 --> 00:45:30,879 Speaker 1: practical and yet safe in the way they opened up, 780 00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:35,719 Speaker 1: and not only has their economy and their job market flourished, 781 00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:39,760 Speaker 1: but they have the exact same health numbers as Virginian 782 00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:42,480 Speaker 1: and so it just hasn't made any sense. And then 783 00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:46,000 Speaker 1: on top of that, our governor has absolutely allowed our 784 00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:49,799 Speaker 1: Democrat led House of Delegates and Senate run a monk. 785 00:45:50,280 --> 00:45:52,920 Speaker 1: And there's been so much legislation that has been passed 786 00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:58,040 Speaker 1: that's hurt police, that's actually encroached on our conservative values, 787 00:45:58,080 --> 00:46:01,520 Speaker 1: it's encroached that our constitutional right. And this is why 788 00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:05,239 Speaker 1: Virginians are coming together, this is why Republicans are going 789 00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:08,360 Speaker 1: to win this year, simply because it's a reaction to 790 00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:12,680 Speaker 1: the amazing overreach that has happened in Richmond and now 791 00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:15,360 Speaker 1: we're seeing it in Washington as well. And this is 792 00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:18,319 Speaker 1: not acceptable to Virginians. And I've heard it over and 793 00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:22,480 Speaker 1: over again, Buck, I have traveled twelve thousand miles in 794 00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:26,200 Speaker 1: two months, and what I have heard from Virginians over 795 00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:29,080 Speaker 1: and over again is we are ready for a change, 796 00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:31,480 Speaker 1: and we're ready for an outsider. We're ready for a 797 00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:34,680 Speaker 1: business person who understands how to deliver results. And it's 798 00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 1: been incredibly encouraging as an outsider. What got you motivated. 799 00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:42,440 Speaker 1: I mean, you're not somebody that's spent a lot of 800 00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:46,000 Speaker 1: time running for state office in the past, working in 801 00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:47,879 Speaker 1: the state House. Have you come from the Carlisle Group, 802 00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:51,040 Speaker 1: a very large private equity firm, and you come from it, 803 00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:54,960 Speaker 1: you rent it as co CEO? So why now, why 804 00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:56,799 Speaker 1: get involved? What do you what do you see as 805 00:46:56,800 --> 00:47:01,279 Speaker 1: the contributions to this fight that you can make well. 806 00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:05,120 Speaker 1: Last summer, I was overcome by the fact that our 807 00:47:05,160 --> 00:47:09,200 Speaker 1: governor had done such an amazingly poor job in managing 808 00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:13,160 Speaker 1: through the pandemic. And I watched what two generations of 809 00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:18,200 Speaker 1: Republican leadership, the mcaulliff administration followed by the north administration, 810 00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:21,879 Speaker 1: which actually is the mccaff Northam administration, that had done 811 00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:25,279 Speaker 1: such damage to our business, to our business environment where 812 00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:28,640 Speaker 1: we're seeing some of our strongest companies move away. Norfolk 813 00:47:28,719 --> 00:47:32,560 Speaker 1: Southern is now headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia Advanced Auto Parts 814 00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:36,520 Speaker 1: is now headquartered in Raleigh, North Carolina. Twenty five percent 815 00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:41,759 Speaker 1: of Virginia's businesses were partially or fully closed last year, 816 00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:44,919 Speaker 1: and I just couldn't believe that that was happening in 817 00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:47,640 Speaker 1: the commonwealth that I grew up in. And then on 818 00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:50,920 Speaker 1: top of that, I've watched the Republican Party continue to 819 00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:54,319 Speaker 1: find ways to lose year after year after year, and 820 00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:56,920 Speaker 1: I did feel an amazing conviction in my heart that 821 00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:59,760 Speaker 1: it was time for a different kind of leader, somebody 822 00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:02,160 Speaker 1: who was not a politician, who actually was going to 823 00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:06,239 Speaker 1: bring different perspectives on how to get Virginia moving, how 824 00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:09,000 Speaker 1: to stand up for our constitutional rights, how to actually 825 00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:12,160 Speaker 1: run the place better. I mean, goodness, gracious, our DMV 826 00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:15,959 Speaker 1: and our Virginia Employment Commission are just so poorly run. 827 00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:18,600 Speaker 1: That's because we keep sending the same kinds of people 828 00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:20,520 Speaker 1: to do this, folks that have never really run anything. 829 00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:23,560 Speaker 1: And so I actually got up from my desk class summer, 830 00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:26,040 Speaker 1: I grabbed my wife. I told her I was going 831 00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:28,400 Speaker 1: to quit my job and run for governor. Candidly, she 832 00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:30,239 Speaker 1: asked me if I was having a midlife crisis, and 833 00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:33,160 Speaker 1: I said, no, I'm having a Virginia crisis. And we 834 00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:37,120 Speaker 1: committed ourselves to put forth this effort to really change 835 00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:39,400 Speaker 1: the future of Virginia. And that's what we feel like 836 00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:41,560 Speaker 1: we're doing. And I feel so encouraged by all of 837 00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:43,720 Speaker 1: the support we've had over the last few months. Glen 838 00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:46,959 Speaker 1: Young can candidate for Governor of Virginia, Glenn, We're gonna 839 00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:48,759 Speaker 1: follow this one closer.
