You have 13 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:42,320 Speaker 1: spent time as an ambassador overseas before. You are a 14 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:46,479 Speaker 1: student of American diplomacy and history. Have you seen anything 15 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:50,199 Speaker 1: like what is going on right now since Vietnam and 16 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 1: what should be happening that is not happening in your mind? Well, Clay, 17 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 1: great to be on with you two, and congratulations on 18 00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 1: the great success of the program. Thank you. I appreciate 19 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:04,959 Speaker 1: just wonderful the situation in Afghanistan that was anything but 20 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,920 Speaker 1: wonderful and As you mentioned, I was the US ambassador 21 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 1: to Japan, that's the third largest economy in the world. 22 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,320 Speaker 1: At any given day, I had a quarter of a 23 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 1: million Americans in Japan, and it was my responsibility as 24 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 1: the chief of that mission, to have a plan in 25 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,119 Speaker 1: place that would take care of those Americans were any 26 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 1: sort of disaster or situation like this to arise. You 27 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 1: can imagine what happened when I arrived in Japan twenty 28 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:36,679 Speaker 1: seventeen in North Korea chemissuring launching intercontinental ballistic missiles over Japan. 29 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 1: I completely reworked the plan. It took a lot of 30 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 1: time and effort to do it, but the situation, the 31 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 1: risks had changed. And every person that's got that sort 32 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 1: of responsibility, every ambassador that has responsibility for American lives, 33 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 1: should be constantly vigilant about about saving those lives, protecting 34 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 1: those lives, and making sure that you've got an orally 35 00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:00,120 Speaker 1: plan and process in place. That has clearly failed here, 36 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 1: And an ambassador is the representative of the president in 37 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 1: that nation. At the end of the day, the buck 38 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 1: stops with the president, and this president has done everything 39 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:13,359 Speaker 1: to deflect, to spin, to avoid responsibility, and has created 40 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 1: an embarrassment of epic proportions for America meanwhile threatening the 41 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:22,679 Speaker 1: lives of tens of thousands of Americans and our allies. 42 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 1: It's just, Senator, it's just an embarrassment. Senator Haggerty buck here, 43 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 1: I just want to know what you can tell us 44 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 1: from any contacts or office have with Americans on the 45 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 1: ground in terms of what they're facing. We know they 46 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:38,799 Speaker 1: go into Taliban checkpoints and many are being turned back. 47 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 1: How is that supposed to change? I mean, is it 48 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 1: just the negotiations between Biden administration intermediaries with Taliban leadership? 49 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 1: And what is the plan here? They keep saying they're 50 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: hoping to get five thousand, the Biden White Houses saying 51 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: five thousand Americans a day out. I don't think anyone 52 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 1: believes it's gonna happen like that unless there's some kind 53 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 1: of major agreement. Is that underway? And what do you think? 54 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:04,839 Speaker 1: What do you think the next few days look like? Well, 55 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 1: it was very disturbing to see Secretary Austin's press conference 56 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 1: yesterday when he essentially said that we're relying on the 57 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:15,080 Speaker 1: goodwill and the diplomatic relationship with the Taliban for this 58 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: to all work out. I mean, I'll remind you the 59 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 1: Taliban or a terrorist organization. They've been named as such, 60 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 1: not only by America but around the world. This is 61 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 1: an incredibly precarious situation. I hope and pray that they 62 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 1: are able to meet the type of numbers that they 63 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 1: are talking about. Now. What we have not seen is 64 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: competence and execution on the ground at this point. And 65 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 1: I hate to say it. You know, announced of provision 66 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: prevention is worth a pound of cure, but we are 67 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 1: into pounds and pounds of cure right now, and we 68 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 1: are working. I know we're working diligently. I'm talking with 69 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 1: administration officials on a regular basis, but we're also hearing, 70 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 1: as you say, from from people who are on the 71 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 1: ground there. In fact, we were talking yesterday. We've got 72 00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 1: worked to my office three families that are in safe 73 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 1: houses near the airport looking for their opportunity to make 74 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 1: a run for it. What's happened is they have basically 75 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 1: let Americans know that if they can get themselves to 76 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: the Karzai airport there in Cobble, then they'll be taking 77 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:16,159 Speaker 1: care of they'll be protected. That's not the way we 78 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 1: should be doing this. We should be going and getting 79 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 1: the American citizens that are at risk there, protecting them, 80 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 1: moving them, and flowing them outside of the country. I 81 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 1: know we're still early in the process in some ways, unfortunately, 82 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,159 Speaker 1: potentially ten thousand or more American citizens still at risk 83 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 1: in Afghanistan. But based on what you've seen so far, Senator, 84 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 1: is this an impeachment level failure in your mind by 85 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: Joe Biden as an administration? Well, this is this is 86 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: clearly a failure. Is it a high crime or misdemeanors? 87 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: There's more more to be uncovered here, I'm sure, but 88 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 1: I would say this right now, we need to be 89 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 1: working together and forward looking to make certain that President 90 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:02,160 Speaker 1: Biden undertakes his most most precious responsibility and that keeps 91 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,600 Speaker 1: safe the lives of American citizens. So that is going 92 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: to be my focus right now, holding this administration accountable absolutely. 93 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 1: I have jurisdiction on the Senate Form Relations Committee and 94 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 1: on the Appropriations Committee. We will be digging into this 95 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 1: in great depth to find out how an embarrassment of 96 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:21,719 Speaker 1: this proportion could have ever happened, how we could have 97 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 1: put this many lives at risk, and how there was 98 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 1: no planning in place. It feels to me Clay and 99 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 1: Buck that they spent all their time focusing on a 100 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 1: press release to celebrate the fact that on the twentieth 101 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: anniversary of nine to eleven they had accomplished the removal 102 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:37,679 Speaker 1: of American troops. But they spent no time on the plan, 103 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 1: and they certainly didn't spend time bringing our allies into 104 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,480 Speaker 1: the equation. And in doing that, they've jeopardized the very 105 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 1: foundation of our alliance with NATO. They have tarnished our 106 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:50,359 Speaker 1: reputation around the world, and we have both allies and 107 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,719 Speaker 1: foes that are watching this very carefully. We're speaking to 108 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 1: Senator Bill Haggerty of Tennessee and at Buck again, I 109 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 1: just what would you like? But what would you like 110 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:04,039 Speaker 1: to buyde administration if you were in the oval right 111 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 1: now with President Biden as commander in chief, better or 112 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 1: for worse. We're seeing the thing for worse these days. 113 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 1: And the Secretary Defense, I mean, the top decision makers here, 114 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 1: what would as somebody who's operated diplomatically at the highest level, yourself, 115 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 1: what would you want to see happen in the next 116 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,039 Speaker 1: two weeks. The first thing I need to do is 117 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 1: acknowledge it and own it. Quit spending quick deflecting but 118 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,600 Speaker 1: engage in a real process of getting this resolved. In 119 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: my own view, I would put somebody in place responsible 120 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 1: for the overall rectification of this situation. I'm talking about 121 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 1: someone serious who's had on the ground experience there, who 122 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:47,279 Speaker 1: has diplomatic capability. And this is nothing against the two 123 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: star general that's coming in right now to operate the airport. 124 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,720 Speaker 1: Is nothing against the career ambassador that they're sending in 125 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 1: from the State Department to oversee civilian operations. But I 126 00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: think you need somebody in with real gravitas and variants 127 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 1: who can come in, who understands the theater there, who 128 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 1: can come in and work with our allies, who can 129 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,359 Speaker 1: work with our own people, and who can see to 130 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: the orderly execution of a workable plan. That was Senator. 131 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 1: It's a pivot a little bit from Afghanistan, which obviously 132 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 1: is getting a lot of attention. Yesterday, Joe Biden addressed 133 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 1: the idea of booster shots for the COVID vaccinations, and 134 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: he also for a second time, took a shot at 135 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 1: parents in Tennessee who are opposing mask mandates. Important here, 136 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 1: they're not saying that no one can wear masks. They're 137 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 1: just saying Hey, we think parents should be able to 138 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 1: make individual decisions. It's also now been endorsed by the 139 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 1: governor of Tennessee, Bill Lee, many other governors making similar decisions. 140 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 1: What do you think of Joe Biden consistently deriding the 141 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 1: opinions of parents. I'm one of them in many different 142 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 1: school boards around the Nashville area who are standing up 143 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 1: and saying the data doesn't support masks on school children. 144 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 1: Biden keeps taking shots at those parents. Well, Clay, you've 145 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: been You've been a tremendous voice in this. But it 146 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 1: did just shocking to me that Biden is spending more 147 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 1: time waging war on Americans than he is our adversaries. 148 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 1: And if you think about the focus of this administration, 149 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 1: you know, we've got a massive failure at our border. 150 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 1: We've got inflation that's moving through the our economy at 151 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: a pace that's that's unbelievable. We haven't seen it since 152 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 1: Jimmy Carter's era. And you know, they've got a crisis 153 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 1: in Afghanistan that is just beyond anything we've seen since 154 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 1: Saigon and Psigon on steroids. Yet this is what he's 155 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 1: spending his time doing, attacking parents for decisions that they're 156 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:39,959 Speaker 1: going to make personal decisions that they need to make 157 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 1: for their own children, and it's it's just a travesty center. 158 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 1: Do you think there may be from the Biden administration. 159 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:49,440 Speaker 1: I mean, this is at the federal level. They're talking 160 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:54,959 Speaker 1: about the possibility of using an interpretation, to use a 161 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 1: euphemism here of the Interstate Commerce Clause to put a 162 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 1: federal vaccine mandating place for a travel for for perhaps 163 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 1: flights and whatever else they have in mind. Do you 164 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 1: think that's a serious consideration as in the Biden administration 165 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: might actually try and executive They go around you in 166 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,199 Speaker 1: the Senate, right, They're not going to legislate this, they 167 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: may just do it at the executive level. Well, they 168 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 1: on the flights, I think they extended the mass mandate 169 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: on on board flights until the eighteenth of January. Now, 170 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 1: so oh, I mean for vaccines though, yeah, oh yeah, 171 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:30,559 Speaker 1: you're talking about vaccines. Yes, it's something that you know, 172 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 1: it is certainly something I'm sure they are contemplating. But 173 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:35,959 Speaker 1: what they need to be focused on right now is 174 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 1: addressing this failure in Afghanistan first and foremost and getting 175 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: our economy back on track without pumping more and more 176 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 1: inflation and more and more stimulus into it, and dealing 177 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 1: with the border crisis on the southern part of our 178 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 1: country that is a national security disaster. Again, the priorities 179 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 1: are all wrong here. I think America can see through it, 180 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 1: and it may be a diversion on their part to 181 00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 1: begin again to focus on these things that are that 182 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,319 Speaker 1: are avisive and that you know they don't have the 183 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 1: science to back up. Last question for you, Senator Haggerty, 184 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 1: we appreciate you given us the time here. In addition 185 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 1: to Afghanistan and COVID chaos, you've also got the budget 186 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 1: which is working its way through in conjunction with the 187 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:19,680 Speaker 1: infrastructure bill. I'm curious inside of the Senate what conversations 188 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,599 Speaker 1: are taking place associated with what they're saying as a 189 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 1: three point five trillion dollar budget bill, even though it 190 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: may cost more. Does the situation in Afghanistan cause more 191 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:34,079 Speaker 1: trouble for Joe Biden as it pertains to this budget process? 192 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 1: What are you picking up in that respect in the 193 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: Senate right now? Well, I think this whole situation in 194 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 1: Afghanistan has really put a bright light on the lack 195 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 1: of competence of this administration and their democratic allies in 196 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 1: the Senate and in the House. I think it's going 197 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 1: to make everything more difficult, and I think they're at 198 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 1: this point looking to use the budget reconciliation process as 199 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 1: a means to slam through, you know, the Green New 200 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 1: Deal rebranded and more and more government dependency, and America 201 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: is having an opportunity to wake up and see how 202 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 1: incompetent this administration is and how poor they are at execution. 203 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: I think it's going to make it extremely difficult for 204 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:17,959 Speaker 1: them to move anything through at this point. I'm not 205 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 1: saying they won't try, but I do believe that this 206 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 1: has made their life more difficult on every front right now. 207 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 1: Senator Haggerty, Tennessee, great to have you here with us 208 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: on the Clay and Buck Show.

So that's at bucksexon dot com. And Biden 249 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:45,080 Speaker 1: is in a rough spot this week. I think that's 250 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 1: fair to say. I think Joe Biden's having it. Clay, 251 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:48,839 Speaker 1: is this the worst week of his presidency? I think 252 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 1: this has to be the worst week of his presidency. 253 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:53,720 Speaker 1: This may be the worst week of any president's presidency 254 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 1: in twenty years. I think I was trying to think. 255 00:13:56,360 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously nine to eleven, and since I think 256 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: what week would you point to as somebody having a 257 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:06,079 Speaker 1: worse week than this? Even even the rise of Isis 258 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 1: under the Obama administration, because it was graduate phase exactly, 259 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: it didn't have the same It wasn't there was a blitzkrieg, 260 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 1: and there was there were some similarities. You had the 261 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 1: Islamic State, which they called Isle of course all the time, 262 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 1: and everyone else was like, just call it Isis, you weirdos. 263 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 1: But they they had a blitzkrieg into Mosel City that 264 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 1: I know better than I would care to and they 265 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 1: irocky army abandoned things. Anyway, worst week the Biden misrations 266 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 1: had in a while. But but all the issue of COVID, 267 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 1: they're just they're just doubling tripling down on everything. They're 268 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 1: not saying, oh we have to give everybody boosters. Now 269 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 1: maybe we should rethink, Oh, they just turned the screws 270 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 1: tighter all the time. And as you know, everybody, I've 271 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 1: been telling you, I think they're gonna come after people 272 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: in different ways here for vaccination that live outside of 273 00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 1: the Blue Cities. Here is Biden just yes day during 274 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 1: this press conference that he gave no questions about Afghanistan 275 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 1: to press Conto didn't take any right, Yes, I mean 276 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 1: you didn't take a single question. The Taliban is taking 277 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 1: more questions about their policy on America to buy American 278 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 1: media in Afghanistan than Joe Biden is. But here is 279 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:18,520 Speaker 1: what he said on vaccinations that I want to drill 280 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 1: down to that play for. So let's be clear. Vaccination 281 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 1: requirements have been around for decades. Students, healthcare professionals, our 282 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 1: troops are typically required to receive vaccines to prevent everything 283 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 1: from polio to smallpox, to measles to rebella. In fact, 284 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 1: the reason most people in America don't worry about polio, smallpox, 285 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 1: measle months from rebella today is because of vaccines. It 286 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 1: only makes sense to require vaccine that stops the spread 287 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:51,240 Speaker 1: of COVID nineteen, and it's time for others to step up. 288 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 1: Employers have more power to day to end this pandemic 289 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 1: than they have ever had before. My message is simple, 290 00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 1: do the right thing for your employees, consumer and your businesses. 291 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 1: Let's remember the key tool to keep in our economy 292 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 1: going strong is to get people vaccinated and at work. 293 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 1: Nice job he got. There be a shame if you 294 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 1: lost it because he didn't get vaccinated. That's what the 295 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 1: President of the United States, Clay is telling the private 296 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,160 Speaker 1: sector that often operates at the mercy of the federal 297 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 1: government to do right now. Yeah, it's default state action. 298 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 1: But the bigger issue here, I think, Buck, is one 299 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 1: hundred percent vaccination rate would not in COVID And this 300 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 1: is the biggest lie associated with the you need to 301 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 1: get vaccinated aspect of this Joe Biden pitch right now. 302 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:37,280 Speaker 1: I was talking about this a little bit earlier, and 303 00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 1: the data is out there. Iceland is one of the 304 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: most one of the most vaccinated countries in the entirety 305 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 1: of the world. Buck, they have done an incredible job 306 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 1: of getting their people vaccinated. Iceland has had let me 307 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 1: give you these numbers. Ninety one point two percent of 308 00:16:55,440 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 1: the adult population in Iceland is at least partially vaccinated. 309 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:05,679 Speaker 1: Nearly eighty seven percent are fully vaccinated. We now in 310 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 1: Iceland have got the highest number of cases of COVID 311 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 1: anywhere in that country that has ever existed. This surge 312 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 1: is higher than ever before. If vaccination we're going to 313 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:22,240 Speaker 1: solve this as an issue, then being eighty seven percent 314 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 1: vaccinated would end it. And remember Buck, initially we were 315 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 1: told if seventy percent of people would get vaccinated, this 316 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 1: thing would be over in the United States. Guess what, 317 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,920 Speaker 1: We're over seventy percent of adults vaccinated and it hasn't. 318 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:40,320 Speaker 1: They're comparing. Biden is openly comparing the and what McClay 319 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:42,119 Speaker 1: is telling you is just playing out the thesis that 320 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,199 Speaker 1: we've been discussing here with Alex Barnson, who will be 321 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,720 Speaker 1: one too for a Barrenson victory lab. So I want 322 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 1: to give you a breaking news update. The DC bomb 323 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 1: threat suspect has surrendered. Okay, so no one heard, no 324 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,880 Speaker 1: bomb went off.

Wanted to hit you 348 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 1: some numbers yesterday we tease this and a lot of 349 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:14,880 Speaker 1: the discussion Buck we've had. Obviously, the focal point right 350 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,640 Speaker 1: now is get as many people home from Afghanistan, American 351 00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:21,879 Speaker 1: citizens safely as we possibly can. We want them all 352 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: to get to the airport and to safely return to 353 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 1: this country. But one of the big points of discussion 354 00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 1: has been, and you heard us, just ask Senator Haggerty, 355 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:32,680 Speaker 1: who was with us at the top of this hour, 356 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 1: what sort of impact is this foreign policy failure potentially 357 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 1: going to have on the larger Joe Biden domestic agenda 358 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:44,399 Speaker 1: with its record of futility. Here a couple of stats 359 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 1: that I think are significant, Buck, And I don't know 360 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:47,199 Speaker 1: if you've seen these, but I want to hit you 361 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:49,640 Speaker 1: with them and get your reaction. First of all, five 362 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 1: thirty eight website, Nate Silver's website and Real Clear Politics, 363 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 1: both early this week on Wednesday, for the first time 364 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:02,680 Speaker 1: in Joe Biden his tenure as president, his approval rating 365 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 1: has dropped below fifty percent. Now this is significant because 366 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:10,040 Speaker 1: it really doesn't factor in much of what's gone on 367 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 1: with Afghanistan yet, and we know all of the favorable 368 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 1: media attention that Joe Biden has gotten for him to 369 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:21,200 Speaker 1: drop below fifty percent approval, We talked about how many 370 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 1: people who for Biden they could have a duo and 371 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 1: vote for Trump. Does it surprise you, Buck, Sexton that 372 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:32,160 Speaker 1: even with the bias polls that we know exist, they're 373 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 1: not even able to keep Joe Biden above water now 374 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 1: and say over half of the American public supports him. 375 00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 1: Anybody who voted for Joe Biden because they thought, they 376 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 1: believed and the media was insistent, they were mendacious. I 377 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 1: mean they lied constantly about this that it would return 378 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:52,679 Speaker 1: us to normalcy. Or anybody who believed that there was 379 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:56,720 Speaker 1: something transactional that was good for the country, right, it 380 00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 1: was gonna be good. There were millions of people who 381 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:03,359 Speaker 1: believed saying, yes, he would do a good job with 382 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:07,120 Speaker 1: filling the blank. And by the way, that's really what 383 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:09,879 Speaker 1: you look at people who are independents, undecided. You know, 384 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 1: you get into the and it's usually all well, the 385 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 1: economy or immigration or something, and it's whoever they believe 386 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:20,840 Speaker 1: will be better on. Anyone who thought normalcy or competence 387 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:24,879 Speaker 1: was coming with this administration already realizes this was a 388 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:28,199 Speaker 1: massive mistake. They regret the vote and realize that the 389 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,919 Speaker 1: country is not in a better place in those ways 390 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 1: for those reasons. The looney Libs who are triple masking 391 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 1: while they're riding around outside on their tricycles and talking 392 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,399 Speaker 1: about how doctor Fauci is, you know, a sex god 393 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:45,440 Speaker 1: and he's amazing. They are never going to turn their 394 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:48,479 Speaker 1: backs on Joe Biden because they've been convinced, they've been 395 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,399 Speaker 1: brainwash into thinking that. I mean, think, let's have a 396 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 1: little fun game here for second Clay, the first year 397 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,919 Speaker 1: of the Trump presidency, what was the big problem? I mean, 398 00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:00,480 Speaker 1: what was so? We had a booming economy, a booming 399 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 1: stock market, piece no attacks, tax cuts, and the media 400 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,360 Speaker 1: was in a frenzy. They were at def Con two 401 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,959 Speaker 1: because of a lie of Russia collusion. I mean, if 402 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: you compare out to this point the first term of 403 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:18,439 Speaker 1: Trump and the first I'm sorry, the first year of 404 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 1: Trump in his term, and the first year of Biden, 405 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 1: it's not even close. It's it's not even the same universe. 406 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:26,879 Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's an A student and a D 407 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 1: student and Trump, other than COVID would have dominated Biden 408 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:36,360 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty. Okay, so those numbers Joe Biden now 409 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:40,120 Speaker 1: under fifty percent. So far, I have only seen one 410 00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:45,640 Speaker 1: pole that has begun to factor. In Afghanistan. Reuters has 411 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 1: dropped Joe Biden's approval rating by seven points. This came 412 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,919 Speaker 1: out on Tuesday, from fifty three percent approval all the 413 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 1: way down to forty six. And some people out there, Kay, 414 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 1: you may not trust polls, but to kind of put 415 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 1: it into context, we know the Trump polls were always 416 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 1: a mess. But George W. Bush seven months in fifty 417 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 1: six percent approval rating, Barack Obama seven months in fifty 418 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 1: nine percent approval rating, according to these same polls, all 419 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:16,679 Speaker 1: right under fifty percent. This is significant for going into 420 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 1: the mid terms. The average president under fifty seven, under 421 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 1: fifty percent loses thirty seven House seats in the first 422 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 1: mid term. I can't imagine Joe Biden being able. I'm curious. 423 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 1: I imagine you would too. To go up, right, it's 424 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,200 Speaker 1: only going to continue to go down between now and 425 00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:39,919 Speaker 1: twenty And I don't like I hate over promising, and 426 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:43,399 Speaker 1: I one of my monsters in life is never celebrate early. 427 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:45,720 Speaker 1: You know, you never want to be to borrow from 428 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 1: your world, mister Travis, you never want to be the 429 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 1: guy who's high stepping in the end zone and yeah, 430 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 1: well it gets nailed at the two yards had right, Like, 431 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:54,959 Speaker 1: you never want to be that guy. You don't want 432 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 1: to drop the ball too early. Either, which is what 433 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,400 Speaker 1: a lot of people do now. And but I gotta 434 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 1: say it's we're right now, We're on track. Some people 435 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 1: can say, don't say it, you're gonna we're on track 436 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:08,200 Speaker 1: for something along the lines of the twenty ten Tea 437 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 1: party wave. Just yeah, just based on the incompetence of 438 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 1: the Biden administration. And look, I know it's a long 439 00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:17,159 Speaker 1: way off, and then we're the lot can change between 440 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:20,400 Speaker 1: now and then. But when you see what the problems 441 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 1: are of the Biden administration, usually year one of a presidency, 442 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:26,880 Speaker 1: they can get away with, oh, we don't know yet. 443 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 1: You know, we don't know what the real results of 444 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 1: our decisions are. You know, we're gonna either raise taxes 445 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:33,120 Speaker 1: or lower taxes. We're gonna have some kind of an agreement. 446 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:35,919 Speaker 1: We're gonna try something on healthcare. It's gonna take time, 447 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:37,879 Speaker 1: and the media can run a lot of interference for 448 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:41,160 Speaker 1: the Democrats as they do, convincing people that it's going 449 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:42,720 Speaker 1: and it's all gonna work out. So even if it 450 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 1: doesn't look that great, Biden has managed to in the 451 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:50,479 Speaker 1: areas where he has asserted the most control and made 452 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:57,119 Speaker 1: the most clear decisions, created catastrophes. I mean creative, really negative, 453 00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:01,440 Speaker 1: obviously negative outcomes in the first eight months. I mean 454 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 1: this is kind of unhalamated in that way. It's calamitously. 455 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: Here's an idea for you, Buck, I think you can 456 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:11,360 Speaker 1: make the strong argument the only good thing for Joe 457 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:14,120 Speaker 1: Biden right now is as bad of a job as 458 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 1: he has done, Kamala Harris is less popular than he is, 459 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:22,199 Speaker 1: so there's nobody trying to raise up behind him, you know, 460 00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 1: because that was the big fear was Kamala is there, 461 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,920 Speaker 1: She's gonna sweep in and take over for Joe Biden. 462 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 1: I think Democrats are more terrified of how much Kamala 463 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,680 Speaker 1: is disliked in this country, so they're going to keep 464 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 1: Joe Biden in that spot. It's a little bit like 465 00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 1: Virginia when the governor had the black face scandal, and 466 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:41,720 Speaker 1: then the lieutenant governor had the sexual assault, then he 467 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 1: had another black face scandal in the Attorney General's office. 468 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:49,920 Speaker 1: Northam was able to stay governor not because of his competence, 469 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 1: but because everybody was even arguably more incompetent beneath him. 470 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 1: I think that might be the only saving grace for 471 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:00,360 Speaker 1: Joe Biden right now, because Otherwise, I think what would 472 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:02,680 Speaker 1: be saying, Hey, this guy's a Democrats will be saying, hey, 473 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:04,399 Speaker 1: we need to elevate Kamala. He's not up to that. 474 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:09,680 Speaker 1: And Kamala the Democrat apparatus, I do think knows then, 475 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 1: in the same way that they didn't want to put 476 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:16,159 Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders socialism, which is really largely the ideology of 477 00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 1: the Democrat Party now, they just won't call it that. 478 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 1: They didn't want to put that to a vote. I mean, 479 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,199 Speaker 1: I still think it should have been Trump versus Sanders 480 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 1: in this last election. That would have been a more 481 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 1: honest I had been honest, and it might have been 482 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:31,199 Speaker 1: the case in twenty sixteen two if they had been honest, right, 483 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 1: okay for where it actually is, But they didn't. They 484 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:35,879 Speaker 1: didn't want to actually pose that to the voters. I 485 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 1: think they also know that if you're talking about Kamala 486 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:43,640 Speaker 1: as the standard bear for the Democrat Party, it's one 487 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 1: thing for the Democrat the DNC apparatus to elevate her, 488 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:49,680 Speaker 1: and there's all the optics of this, but they don't 489 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:51,119 Speaker 1: want to put it to a vote with the American 490 00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 1: people because she'll lose, right, So they know that that's 491 00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:59,119 Speaker 1: a bad idea, and you got Joe Biden, who is 492 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 1: their guys supposed to be. It was supposed to be 493 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:06,640 Speaker 1: a pretty, you know, easy going Joe Biden's the guy 494 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 1: you know approach, and that then gives cover to the 495 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 1: socialists within the party, the squad and the rest of 496 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 1: them to push for their crazy ideas because oh, don't 497 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:18,120 Speaker 1: worry Joe, good old Grandpa Joe's holding it all together, right, 498 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:21,639 Speaker 1: we can trust the Democrats with Grandpa Joe at the helm. 499 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,879 Speaker 1: Now it looks like Grandpa Joe has taken the sailboat 500 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:27,560 Speaker 1: and run it right into the rocks, which means the 501 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:30,920 Speaker 1: rest of the socialist the Democrat party don't have that 502 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 1: cover from people who are saying, oh, well, we you know, 503 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 1: we know we can trust Joe. No, you can't, actually, 504 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:38,160 Speaker 1: and they're not even going to get that one year honeymoon. 505 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 1: The honeymoon is over at seven or eight months. And 506 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,000 Speaker 1: I only see it getting worse as we move into 507 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,320 Speaker 1: an election year next year. And then if you presume, 508 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 1: which I think you have to, that Democrats are going 509 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:52,119 Speaker 1: to lose the House at a minimum and probably the Senate. 510 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:54,679 Speaker 1: What in the world is Biden going to be capable 511 00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 1: of going forward. Is he going to decide to run? 512 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 1: Are they gonna try to drag him across the finish line? Tamala, 513 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 1: it's aist and sexist if Joe doesn't run and she's 514 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 1: not the nominee. They're in a mess of a situation 515 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 1: right now on a national party And just real quick, 516 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:11,640 Speaker 1: what do they have to offer up as the great thing? 517 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:14,639 Speaker 1: They're going to do? Nothing? They can't get the rest 518 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 1: of their They're going to pass this massive budget, fine, 519 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:19,680 Speaker 1: but they're not going to be able to get through 520 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:21,680 Speaker 1: any in an election year. I think they're gonna get 521 00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:24,800 Speaker 1: through legislation with these razor thin margins. Oh gee, maybe 522 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 1: they never had a mandate in the first place. And 523 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 1: now that reality is starting to set in because the 524 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 1: American people see what a clown show we're dealing with. 525 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:35,280 Speaker 1: Here are the Democrats and that's a problem. And I'm 526 00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:37,160 Speaker 1: not even sure they get through the budget now with 527 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 1: all of the mess in Afghanistan, COVID continuing to rise 528 00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 1: as an issue.

When 652 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:51,800 Speaker 1: I was a young lawyer, there was a group that 653 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:53,799 Speaker 1: would get together and play and I would go and 654 00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 1: have a few beers and sit around the table and 655 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:59,560 Speaker 1: have fun.

It's 660 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:11,879 Speaker 1: not like I'm gonna get wrecked and then nobody you'll 661 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:13,919 Speaker 1: see it. It'll be on, they'll clip it, they'll share 662 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:17,560 Speaker 1: it on everywhere. Maybe for our EIB twenty four seven folks. 663 00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:19,560 Speaker 1: By the way, I mean this may surprise you, but 664 00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 1: the Buckster's got some dance moves. So for the wedding 665 00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:26,280 Speaker 1: weekend that I don't want to hear, my little brother 666 00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 1: Keats is getting married to a wonderful young woman named 667 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 1: Ali and she will be a member of my family 668 00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:35,840 Speaker 1: as of a Saturday afternoon officially, so we got a 669 00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:38,759 Speaker 1: big ceremony stunt. If you're coming here, if you're a 670 00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:42,239 Speaker 1: great play, I'm telling you man Gangnam style. You throw 671 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:46,360 Speaker 1: anything that DJ busts out those funky tunes and people 672 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:48,719 Speaker 1: don't even know what kind of funk. But I hope 673 00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:51,399 Speaker 1: that somebody has picked your outfit for the wedding because 674 00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:53,759 Speaker 1: based on the photo out black tie, you can't screw it. 675 00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:56,600 Speaker 1: You can't. That's the thing black tie is like, that's 676 00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:58,680 Speaker 1: what That's why men all have to dress the same, 677 00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:01,319 Speaker 1: because women don't trust us at wedding. It makes sense 678 00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:03,080 Speaker 1: to be all the same. It makes sense. Plus, I'm 679 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 1: not going to do the dumb and dumber thing of 680 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:07,320 Speaker 1: showing up in like the crazy color tangerine or in 681 00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:10,560 Speaker 1: tuxedo with the ruffle or am I that could be 682 00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 1: kind of fun. That would be a hell of a move. 683 00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 1: That's a great Halloween. Clay is going to either win 684 00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:17,680 Speaker 1: or lose a lot of money for charity, whatever's the 685 00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 1: best for the charity.
