1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:09,000 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome in Wednesday edition Clay Travis Buck 3 00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:11,760 Speaker 1: Sexton Show. We appreciate all of you hanging out with us. 4 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:15,320 Speaker 1: It was sixty two minutes. We talked some about how 5 00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:18,759 Speaker 1: long the Joe Biden State of the Union would be. 6 00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:22,599 Speaker 1: That is the number, and we have so many different 7 00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:26,960 Speaker 1: aspects to talk about surrounding that speech. We've got a 8 00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:28,800 Speaker 1: couple of great guests, by the way, coming on who 9 00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:32,720 Speaker 1: will be reacting to it as well. Congresswoman Lauren Bobert 10 00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:34,919 Speaker 1: will be with us and she obviously is in the 11 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:39,839 Speaker 1: crosshairs over her mentioning of the thirteen servicemen that Joe Biden, 12 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:44,680 Speaker 1: according to Jensaki quote, didn't have the time to fit 13 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:48,600 Speaker 1: into his State of the Union. We will discuss that 14 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 1: certainly with her. We're also scheduled to be joined by 15 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 1: Pennsylvania Senate candidate doctor Oz, who many of you will 16 00:00:55,720 --> 00:01:00,160 Speaker 1: be familiar with over the past years of his work 17 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: in television and media as a health advisor and expert. 18 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:09,319 Speaker 1: So that is where we are headed. But Buck, there 19 00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:11,759 Speaker 1: are so many things that we can talk about from 20 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 1: the State of the Union address, But to me, the 21 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 1: two things that stood out the most. One after two 22 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:25,080 Speaker 1: years of essentially not allowing anyone to appear anywhere in Washington, 23 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,040 Speaker 1: d C. If you were a Democrat without wearing a mask, 24 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: masks were gone. We saw Joe Biden striding slowly across 25 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:37,959 Speaker 1: the White House lawn on Monday in his ridiculous oversized 26 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 1: black face mask, and by Tuesday he is walking down 27 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 1: the center of the House of Representatives aisle, shaking hands awkwardly, 28 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 1: even headbutting. If you guys haven't seen that video, as 29 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 1: if COVID had never existed. Nancy Pelosi awkwardly behind him, 30 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 1: sort of gyrating and weird directions, looking super strange. Also 31 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 1: not wearing a mask, Joe Biden can't tell the difference 32 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:16,360 Speaker 1: between reading Ukraine and reading Iran on his teleprompter, strange 33 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 1: ending of go get him. But the maskless thing stood out. 34 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,959 Speaker 1: And then buck what you and I have both described 35 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 1: as the single dumbest political argument of the twenty first century, 36 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 1: defunding the police. Biden now is going to ride into 37 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:39,839 Speaker 1: the future claiming essentially that defund the police never existed. 38 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 1: Listen to how aggressively he not only flips the script 39 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 1: he says, defund the police is out and it's time 40 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 1: to fund the police. And he sounds a lot like 41 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: Clay Travis and Buck Sexton when he says it. Listen 42 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 1: to cut eight. We should all agree the answer is 43 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: not to defund the police, is to fund the police. 44 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 1: Fund them, fund them, fund them with resources and trading 45 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 1: resources and treading the need to protect our communities. I 46 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 1: asked Democrats and Republicans on life to pass my budget 47 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:21,679 Speaker 1: and keep our neighborhoods safe, Okay, and that I think 48 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 1: we have a cut here of just to reinforce for 49 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: all of you. That's the exact opposite of what Democrats 50 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:31,519 Speaker 1: have argued for two years ever since George Floyd. They've 51 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 1: argued that we do need to in fact defund the police. 52 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:37,119 Speaker 1: I believe we have a cut. They did a great 53 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: job immediately getting this out last night. You can go 54 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 1: listen to it. But I think it's important to not 55 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: allow Democrats to now try, in the wake of this 56 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 1: massive increase in murders, massive increase in violent crime, to 57 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 1: argue that they have been the party of wanting to 58 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: fund the police. Listen to this cut of all the 59 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 1: Democrats saying no, we need to defund the police. So 60 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: we've been talking about defunding the police. There's some issues 61 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 1: that we ask police to do, mental health issues or 62 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 1: policing in schools and all the rest that perhaps we 63 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: can shuffle some of that money around, suck it up. 64 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 1: Defunding the police have to happen. We need to defund 65 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 1: the police or eric Ar said, he's saying, take some 66 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: of the money from policing. About one hundred and fifty 67 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 1: million dollars time plot. Eric Ar said he for doing 68 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: what he's done. So not only do we need to 69 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: invest foreign police, but we need to completely dismant all 70 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:32,279 Speaker 1: the Minneapolis Police Department. So yes, defund your bus, defund you. Yes, 71 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 1: I support the reallocation of resources from NYPD. We will 72 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 1: be moving funding from the NYPD two youth initiatives and 73 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 1: social services. They are talking about reducing of the allocation 74 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,919 Speaker 1: of resources to that department. And I think every single 75 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: city in this country ought to be thinking about the 76 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,720 Speaker 1: same thing. Pretty sure, there's a lot of Democrats there 77 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 1: Clay saying defund the police and that the here's what 78 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,280 Speaker 1: Biden shouldn't be allowed to get away with. While all 79 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 1: that was being said, where were the Democrats who were 80 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: pointing out the obvious, which was that that was just 81 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 1: sheer madness. We didn't we didn't need to go through 82 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,839 Speaker 1: what we've seen with the huge spike in crime across 83 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: the country to know what the results would be. This 84 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 1: is like saying I could have stopped them before they 85 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 1: lit the match and threw it into the threw it 86 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 1: into the the you know, kerosene soaked rag in the house. 87 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: But I wanted to see what would happened. First. We 88 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,280 Speaker 1: all knew exactly what was going to happen, and we 89 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: saw buildings burned down, we saw police being assaulted and attacked. 90 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 1: Democrats went along with this because Democrats with the party 91 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 1: of the mob, and it was useful in the twenty 92 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 1: twenty election year. Remember, everybody was scared, right, They were 93 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: scared about COVID and then they were scared about the 94 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,160 Speaker 1: riots we had an election. They often talk about the 95 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 1: integrity of our democracy, the sanctity of our democracy. We 96 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: had a twenty twenty election where business owners across America 97 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: in major cities had to board up their businesses because 98 00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 1: they were afraid the Democrat might lose. Well, no, that's 99 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,039 Speaker 1: what that was about. It's why there weren't riots. And 100 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 1: then they want to lecture all of us about accepting 101 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: election results. And then on just on the COVID thing, 102 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 1: which I know you got into a second ago, Clay. 103 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:11,720 Speaker 1: I mean, so defund we were right, they were wrong, 104 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 1: and everyone who said Defund wasn't crazy was either crazy 105 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:18,280 Speaker 1: themselves were lying to you and pandering, so much pandering 106 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: from Pelosi and the rest. And then on the on 107 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 1: the COVID issue, I almost couldn't believe it. So they're unmasked, 108 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 1: but they're they're sitting socially distanced from each other, which 109 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: this is This is pure religious expression. Now, I mean, 110 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 1: this is purely fauciism shown to everybody. As I'm a 111 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:42,479 Speaker 1: good person, so I social distancing, may I remind everybody 112 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 1: is a totally made up absurd idea. In the first place, 113 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 1: real social distancing is stay away from sick people, stay 114 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 1: six feet apart from people in the elevator, in line 115 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: and stand in your little spots and a little stupid 116 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 1: sit in your circle. People were being told the social distance. 117 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,920 Speaker 1: I'll never forget this in line outside for the grocery 118 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 1: store in the Winner of twenty twenty, and I was 119 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: among them, and then we went indoors and we were 120 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 1: all shoulder and shoulder fighting over the last dried pasta 121 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: and canned soup because we were all gonna we were 122 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: all gonna have the collapse of civilization, Fauci says. So 123 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 1: it was absurd. They're socially distanced. That's a that's an 124 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 1: idiotic term. It's a made up it doesn't even make 125 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 1: any sense. And how they did these things because they won, 126 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 1: do not accept that they were wrong. And two they 127 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: made a clear last thing. I mean, Biden actually said 128 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 1: as much that they're not done when he says this 129 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 1: is endemic clay, They're they're preparing for COVID three point 130 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 1: zero or whatever four point h the next time around, 131 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: the next major wave. They're gonna do all this crazy crap. Again. 132 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 1: That was clear from the State of the Union last 133 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 1: That's really one of the only things that was clear. 134 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: That and Biden going scrapper. Ever, where a lot of 135 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: a lot of Biden babbling. He was a mess, And 136 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 1: also he spent a lot of his time buck arguing 137 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: in favor of Bill back better. And then did you see, 138 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 1: like five minutes after the State of the Union, somebody 139 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: found Joe Manchin, and Joe Manchin was like, yeah, build 140 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 1: back Better is dead. So the State of the Union, 141 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,239 Speaker 1: you get a relatively limited amount of time to talk 142 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 1: to that many Americans. And Biden spent a huge portion 143 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 1: of his State of the Union on Build Back Better, 144 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 1: which is dead. And you know, you start to think 145 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: about the timing. And I don't know about you, but 146 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 1: we got the Supreme Court Justice which is probably going 147 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 1: to take a month or so to get that all 148 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 1: the way through. That's going to take us well into April. 149 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: As we get into April, do we really think that 150 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:41,440 Speaker 1: the Democrats are going to pass something substantial in terms 151 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 1: of attacks increase a couple of months before the midterm elections. 152 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 1: That seems highly unlikely to me. It feels to me 153 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 1: as if Biden's agenda is effectively over and now we 154 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 1: wait and see what happens. In Ukraine. We feel very 155 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: good about Republicans taking back the House, maybe also dissent 156 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 1: it either way. That makes it virtually impossible for anything 157 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: to get past for two years. So I just I 158 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 1: look at Biden and I think to myself, he looks 159 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 1: so awful. I mean so awful. There's very limited faith 160 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 1: that I have that he can last physically three more years, 161 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 1: and I don't know that the country can make it 162 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 1: through three more years of him, But I don't know 163 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 1: what other options we have. And it feels as if 164 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 1: basically he's done, like there's nothing more that he's going 165 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: to be able to accomplish as president at this point. 166 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 1: You know, play the Democrats do have a secret weapon, 167 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 1: if you will, in the world of foreign affairs and 168 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 1: all things, and that would be can we come back? 169 00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 1: We'll come back to Kamala Harris.

Welcome back in play Travis buck Sexton Show. 205 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: We are joined now, I believe by Congresswoman Lauren Boberg, 206 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 1: who is in the firing line in the wake of 207 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,439 Speaker 1: the State of the Union address. Now, I don't know 208 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: if you saw this, but Jensaki has come on and said, 209 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 1: in response to a question about whether or not why 210 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 1: they didn't mention January sixth, that they didn't have time 211 00:11:55,960 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: to fit everything into the State of the Union address. 212 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:05,680 Speaker 1: And Congresswoman, you were reacting because as Joe Biden is speaking, 213 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 1: he is not referencing the thirteen different soldiers that we 214 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 1: lost in Afghanistan, and you yelled out to him. What 215 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 1: has the reaction been since you did that, and what 216 00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 1: do you think of Joe Biden not having the time 217 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:24,320 Speaker 1: to actually address that. We now have the cut for 218 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 1: people who might have heard it might not have heard 219 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 1: it last night, Here's what it sounded like. Cancer They 220 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: would put them and a flag. Drake Coffin, I know 221 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 1: one of those one of those soldiers is my son, 222 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 1: Major Boe Biden Congresswoman, what's the reaction been again, and 223 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 1: what do you think about Biden not having the time 224 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:53,479 Speaker 1: to mention the thirteen Afghan soldiers we lost in Afghanistan. 225 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 1: So Buck, when I heard Joe Biden trying to win 226 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 1: political points by talking about troops that were being buried 227 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 1: in flag draped coffins, my mind went straight to the 228 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 1: thirteen servicemen and women that died in Afghanistan. The mother 229 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 1: of one of those soldiers lives in my district, and 230 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 1: she told me that Joe Biden killed her son. You know, 231 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: last night, Joe Biden certainly had time to invite a 232 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 1: big tech ceo to the State of the Union, but 233 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 1: couldn't bother to recognize any of the families who loved 234 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:31,959 Speaker 1: ones were lost in Afghanistan. I think the reaction that 235 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 1: we are getting from me saying you put them in there, 236 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 1: thirteen of them and those flag draped coffins, we're getting 237 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 1: a lot of people saying thank you, because these thirteen 238 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 1: service members would not have been mentioned, would not have 239 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 1: been brought up, had that reaction not taken place last night. 240 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: It's not something that I had planned. But also buck 241 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 1: the left is really upset at me for interrupting Joe 242 00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:01,080 Speaker 1: Biden's speech, But I would like them to just sit 243 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 1: back and think how upsetting it is for the families 244 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 1: whose lives are completely interrupted by Joe Biden's failure. And 245 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 1: you know, we understand that time is very valuable for Joe. 246 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 1: There's only so many hours that he's awake during the day. 247 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 1: It takes him away from ice cream and apple sauce 248 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, dwelling in the basement or fake 249 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 1: white house set, whatever it is that he does. But 250 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 1: he showed us that he did not have time for 251 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 1: those thirteen soldiers way before last night's State of the Union. 252 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 1: Remember that at that service for the fallen soldiers, he 253 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 1: was checking his watch. Then he showed America then he 254 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 1: did not have time for them. Media, who are scolding 255 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 1: you on a decorum level here? I mean, as soon 256 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 1: as I saw that there's Tapper over at CNN. He's 257 00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 1: always the chief hall monitor for all things that were 258 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 1: publicans say that he doesn't like. But I remember Nancy 259 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 1: Pelosi ripping up the State of the Union address. I 260 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 1: remember other times where people have acted out and spoken 261 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 1: out during it. What do you want to say to 262 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 1: people who are yelling at you, essentially that this was 263 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 1: a breach of decorum. I really don't give a darn 264 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 1: about a breach of decorum when our thirteen service members 265 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 1: were completely ignored by the man responsible for their deaths. 266 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 1: And who is CNN to talk about decorum. We've all 267 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 1: seen what takes place on their zoom videos and you 268 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 1: know the disgusting things that come out of CNN. And 269 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 1: of course Nancy Pelosi shredding President Trump's State of the 270 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 1: Union speech like she's something. I don't give a darn 271 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 1: about decorum. The people's House has been completely destroyed this 272 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 1: past year. Through was fencing all around the Capitol again 273 00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 1: last night, because this is a tremendous symbolism of how 274 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,440 Speaker 1: the people are not in control of what happens here 275 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 1: any longer. This is Pelosi's house and we are under 276 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 1: one party Democrat rule, and what they say goes and 277 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 1: there's no policy that we could point to that is 278 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 1: benefiting any American right now coming from the Democrats. Last 279 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 1: night at the State of the Union, members of Congress 280 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 1: were required to have PCR testing to test for COVID nineteen, 281 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 1: to have a special golden tickets to enter the House Chambers, 282 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 1: and on that ticket it would say whether the members 283 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 1: of Congress were seated on the House floor or in 284 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: the gallery. Members were not allowed to have an invited 285 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 1: guests as they usually are, and we were supposed to 286 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 1: socially distance in our assigned seating. How crappy and Unamerican 287 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 1: is that? Buck? I'll tell you right now, I did 288 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 1: not get tested. I did not have a golden ticket, 289 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 1: I did not have an assigned seat, and I sat 290 00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 1: wherever the heck I wanted to night, and I was 291 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 1: in my workplace, the House Chambers, and I was going 292 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 1: to be there unrestrained. Congress One, what do you think 293 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 1: about the fact that suddenly the mask mandate was gone 294 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 1: just in time for the State of the Union, and 295 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 1: Joe Biden, who they've kept in a mask for two 296 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:22,640 Speaker 1: straight years, suddenly out of his mask, walking down, shaking hands, 297 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,240 Speaker 1: engaging in some sort of odd headbut with a couple 298 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:29,400 Speaker 1: of different people. How hypocritical did it feel to suddenly 299 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:32,640 Speaker 1: have the mask mandate gone just in time for Joe 300 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:36,959 Speaker 1: Biden's address. Well know, I'm curious if they actually did that, 301 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 1: because they know that a lot of our masks say 302 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 1: things like I don't know, let's go Brandon, And maybe 303 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 1: they didn't want that displayed there in the House chambers. 304 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:48,919 Speaker 1: But it is a State of the Union miracle that 305 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 1: suddenly we don't need masks in the House chambers. Now, 306 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,440 Speaker 1: the Senate they have never had a mask requirement, and 307 00:17:56,640 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 1: there aren't any mask requirements outside of the how Chambers 308 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:04,720 Speaker 1: that have any repercussion if you break them. So members 309 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,440 Speaker 1: of Congress were fined up to twenty five hundred dollars. 310 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 1: I've been fined a couple of times for violating the 311 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 1: mask rule in the House chambers, but I told Nancy 312 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:15,879 Speaker 1: Pelosi to kiss my mask a long time ago, so 313 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 1: I haven't been playing that game. It's been political theater 314 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,879 Speaker 1: from the start, because members of Congress were only fined 315 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 1: where the CSPAN cameras were rolling. But you know, Buck, 316 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 1: we saw just the day before the State of the 317 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 1: Union on Monday, we saw Joe Biden at the White 318 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 1: House walking through an empty field with a mask on 319 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 1: while he was completely alone. And then last night blabbing 320 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,439 Speaker 1: all over Democrats. I even posted a video saying, hey, 321 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 1: look at this. We no longer have to socially distance 322 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:51,160 Speaker 1: because science, and that's the game that Americans are so 323 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 1: sick and tired of. They they've found our children, They 324 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,200 Speaker 1: muzzle our children in schools with these masks, and they 325 00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 1: do whatever the heck they want. And we are speaking 326 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:04,679 Speaker 1: of Congresswoman Bobert of Colorado and a conversament. I just 327 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:07,560 Speaker 1: want to ask before we let you go, are you 328 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,920 Speaker 1: and your Republican colleagues in the House as fired up 329 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 1: as can be after what felt like a very weak 330 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:18,719 Speaker 1: speech from Joe Biden? And do you have a forty 331 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,720 Speaker 1: or fifty seat swing toward the Republicans in mind going 332 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 1: into this along with your own re election? Of course, Look, 333 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 1: I would love a red wave. And if we keep 334 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 1: showing the American people that we can take a stand 335 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 1: and we will do what we promised to do, then 336 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 1: we absolutely will take back the House in twenty twenty two, 337 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 1: where we could start to have real investigations into the 338 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:42,200 Speaker 1: origin of COVID, into the nih who into Fauchi, our 339 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 1: elections in twenty twenty and so much more, including the 340 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 1: border at Afghanistan, and even energy. I serve on the 341 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,000 Speaker 1: Natural Resources Committee. I would love to have investigations into 342 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 1: our energy policies here in America and hold people accountable. 343 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: But here's the thing, Buck, we need to elect conservatives. 344 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: We need to let principled conservatives who are behind their 345 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 1: name does not stand for rollover. Unfortunately, I see a 346 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 1: lot of those in Congress now, and we need to 347 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:10,480 Speaker 1: make sure that we're not bringing in more of those. 348 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:14,159 Speaker 1: So forty fifty sweet swings. Sure, maybe, but honestly, I 349 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 1: would love a smaller majority, so every vote actually counts 350 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 1: and they have to consider the consequences of every single 351 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 1: vote rather than just saying, ah, we got a big majority, 352 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 1: doesn't really matter. Congresswoman, appreciate the time. We'll talk to 353 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 1: you again soon. Thanks so much. Bucks.

We're gonna get into a deep dive with 375 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 1: the latest on Ukraine coming up at the top of 376 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 1: the next hour, both the situation on the ground and 377 00:21:56,600 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 1: then the politics around it over here and what is 378 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:05,199 Speaker 1: how the debate, how the discussion is shifting as events 379 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 1: change day in and day out. Obviously, major major news story, 380 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:12,720 Speaker 1: big big challenges going forward here, but I want to 381 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:14,399 Speaker 1: take a moment here because this is one of the 382 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:16,200 Speaker 1: nice things about what I do. One of my favorite 383 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 1: things about doing radio and working in media is that 384 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:22,439 Speaker 1: I have a constant excuse, not that necessarily need one, 385 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:25,240 Speaker 1: but to learn about stuff. I'll just go home, I'll 386 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,640 Speaker 1: read a book or a few books on something, come 387 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 1: on air and talk about it. Or I'll just pick 388 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 1: up on some part of day to day life that 389 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:33,679 Speaker 1: I don't spend a lot of time thinking about. And 390 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,920 Speaker 1: I have clay here for some of these areas where 391 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 1: I've just have no idea what's going on. So there 392 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 1: is apparently in MLB Major League Baseball for those I mean, 393 00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 1: I actually need to keep that in mind. MLB lockout 394 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 1: going on, and MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred was asked some questions. 395 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,680 Speaker 1: Here's how that went. Hey, where I'm understanding that deadlines 396 00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: create urgency. You locked out the players to jump start 397 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 1: the negotiations. It feels like real bargaining went on just 398 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:06,880 Speaker 1: in the last twenty four to thirty six hours. I'm 399 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: sure people are wondering why not over the last three 400 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 1: three months or even longer to get to a point 401 00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:15,280 Speaker 1: where you're not necessarily canceling games because there's some momentum here. Yeah, 402 00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:17,639 Speaker 1: I think The best answer to that question is the 403 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 1: last ten days. We've been here ready to bargain full committees, owners, 404 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 1: players for ten days and it got going two days 405 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 1: before the deadline. You know, that's the best explanation I 406 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:30,680 Speaker 1: can give you. I mean, Clay, I just threw from 407 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:34,439 Speaker 1: a layman's perspective. We haven't had sports really, you know, 408 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:36,440 Speaker 1: it's been on and off. How can they not be 409 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 1: all fired up? What's going on? So the season was 410 00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 1: supposed to start on March thirty first, and what they've 411 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 1: effectively done is now be unable to get a resolution 412 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 1: a collective bargaining agreement between the players and the owners 413 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 1: that they can agree on, and so they've knocked out 414 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:57,200 Speaker 1: the first seven games effectively of the season. Now they 415 00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,920 Speaker 1: play a hundred and sixty two Major League Baseball game, 416 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 1: and the relationship between the players union and the owners 417 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 1: has been particularly contentious for some time now, and certainly 418 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 1: Covid I would say, just kind of added fuel to 419 00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:14,400 Speaker 1: the fire over this situation because a couple of years ago, 420 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 1: if you're a baseball fan, they couldn't figure out how 421 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 1: to get the season back started, and they only played 422 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 1: a sixty game season. And so I am a baseball fan, buck, 423 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,400 Speaker 1: but I'm not a diehard, right, it doesn't really matter 424 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 1: to me what's happening in April, May and June. I'm 425 00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 1: gonna take my kids down to Atlanta Braves. We've got 426 00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 1: a great affiliate station right there in Atlanta, right by 427 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 1: the Battery the park where the Atlanta Braves, the World 428 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,880 Speaker 1: Series champion Atlanta Braves, by the way, are playing. And 429 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,200 Speaker 1: not to cast dispersions against them, but you and I 430 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 1: are actually going to be down in Houston and the 431 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 1: last time I was down in Houston was for the 432 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 1: World Series. We're doing a big event on Friday, and 433 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,680 Speaker 1: we'll be doing the show live from Houston on Thursday 434 00:24:55,680 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 1: and Friday. Our friends Jesse, Kelly and and e K 435 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:05,439 Speaker 1: putting together. Yeah, KTRH is our affiliate station down there, 436 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,760 Speaker 1: which we're really excited that they're gonna be hosting us, 437 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 1: and we're gonna a thousand in that market. We like 438 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:12,440 Speaker 1: to say hi to everybody down in Houston, and they're 439 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:14,760 Speaker 1: gonna be several thousand people at that event that Michael 440 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 1: Berry's put together on Friday. That should be really cool 441 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 1: and we're excited about the last time I was down 442 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:22,959 Speaker 1: there was with the World Series. I went and watched 443 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:25,919 Speaker 1: the Astros play against the Braves, and so it was 444 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 1: an awesome time. But I tend to maybe I'm in 445 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:32,159 Speaker 1: the minority here, but I don't really care that much. 446 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,639 Speaker 1: If they play a hundred and forty games or they 447 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 1: play one hundred and twenty, they're not going to cancel 448 00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:40,159 Speaker 1: the season. Eventually, it's going to get worked out. And 449 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 1: the fact that they're not playing one sixty two is 450 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 1: not really got me that riled up. But it is 451 00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 1: a big story, and if you're a diehard baseball fan, 452 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 1: there are a lot of people buck who just feel 453 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 1: like baseball can't get out of its own way. If 454 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:54,920 Speaker 1: we've been doing this show fifty years ago, I would 455 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 1: have said, hey, there are three sports that matter in 456 00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:01,960 Speaker 1: America today, horse racing, boxing, and baseball. And obviously horse 457 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,639 Speaker 1: racing and boxing, but for every now and then, major 458 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,119 Speaker 1: events we really don't pay much attention to in the nation, 459 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:10,160 Speaker 1: and baseball is kind of hanging on there. But it 460 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 1: feels as if baseball continues to shoot itself in the 461 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:16,399 Speaker 1: foot over and over again. And this for many people 462 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,880 Speaker 1: is just the latest symptom of the players and the 463 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,760 Speaker 1: owners not being able to get everything moving in the 464 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 1: right direction to both end up on the same side 465 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,359 Speaker 1: of an equation where fans can just be able to 466 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:30,119 Speaker 1: watch the games. It is fun to go to a 467 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: baseball stadium. How many when's the last time you went 468 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 1: to a baseball game? Oh, gosh, twenty years? Probably years. 469 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,320 Speaker 1: I mean, because what I love about going to baseball 470 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 1: games is I like to just go with buddies or 471 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 1: take my kids, have a couple of beers, get a 472 00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:49,440 Speaker 1: hot dog. Baseball is one of those great sports where 473 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 1: you can go and just chill. There's a high level 474 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:54,359 Speaker 1: of intensity. It feels like to me, when you go 475 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 1: to a football game, there aren't that many of them. 476 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:59,399 Speaker 1: They matter so much for basketball, certainly when you get 477 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 1: into the post season, it feels a lot more intense. Hockey. 478 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 1: I think it's hard to play at half speed. Baseball 479 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: feels like the rhythm of the summer, and man, I 480 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:10,879 Speaker 1: love when it's a great night, perfect weather, just to 481 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 1: go sit out. I'm surprised you haven't gone and checked 482 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 1: out the New Yankee Stadium. I think I didn't go. 483 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:17,639 Speaker 1: Maybe fifteen, maybe ten or fifteen years ago. I have 484 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,120 Speaker 1: been to the New Yankee Stadium, and I did get 485 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:21,639 Speaker 1: to see when I was in high school. Actually, I 486 00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 1: got taken to a World Series Yankees game. Well that's 487 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:26,399 Speaker 1: pretty awesome, which was pretty cool, so I can remember 488 00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:30,239 Speaker 1: that intensity is electric for Yeah, we need the next 489 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,840 Speaker 1: time I'm up in New York now that they've effectively 490 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:35,399 Speaker 1: ended all the mandates, or at least they're planning to 491 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,160 Speaker 1: by what March seventh, I think, and I'll be able 492 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 1: to re enter the city without having to be able 493 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,120 Speaker 1: to be locked up in my hotel room. We should 494 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 1: go to a baseball game. I bet we got a 495 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 1: bunch of fans out there of the Yankees and or 496 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 1: the Mets to go to a game when the weather's good. Chill. 497 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 1: Have some beers just kicked back? I promised producer Mark, 498 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:54,679 Speaker 1: who works in here in New York, and at some 499 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,040 Speaker 1: point I'd take him to an ice hockey game because 500 00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 1: he is an Islanders super fan. And I made that 501 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:04,040 Speaker 1: promise on air right before the pandemic. Oh no, I'm sorry, 502 00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 1: he's a Ranger super fan. He's gonna kill me. He's 503 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 1: a Ranger super fan, Um, not Islanders. But I think 504 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 1: I can't even remember now, but I told him I 505 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 1: taking on an ice hockey game. So I gotta go 506 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 1: to an ice hockey Oh, he's texting me right now. 507 00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 1: He goes, whoa, whoa, Sorry Rangers differs fan. Yes, it's 508 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:23,440 Speaker 1: a lot easier trip for you to Madison Square Garden 509 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:25,159 Speaker 1: for the Rangers too, right that it would be. The 510 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 1: Isles have a new new arena, though I think they 511 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:30,080 Speaker 1: had an awful one for years and years out on 512 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:31,919 Speaker 1: Long Island, and they got a brand new one now, 513 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,639 Speaker 1: I think. So congrats to all the people some of 514 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 1: these things. They're gonna get it back up and running 515 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:38,600 Speaker 1: at some point, you know, some of the things that 516 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 1: you haven't been able to do that I think. I'm 517 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,040 Speaker 1: you know, I might even go to some live concerts. 518 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 1: Usually I find them too loud. I'm one of those 519 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 1: people that goes with ear pro yeah, old man style. 520 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:50,920 Speaker 1: But I might go to some concerts and do some things. 521 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 1: Now that even New York is opening. Friends, So look, 522 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 1: there's the weather is warming for those of us who 523 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 1: are up in the Northeast and places that the Democrats 524 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 1: have made very cold in a variety of context. So 525 00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:04,720 Speaker 1: that's good news. So there's some good stuff going on there. 526 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:07,960 Speaker 1: We do have to jump into the latest on the 527 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 1: situation in Ukraine, though, we'll update you on that a 528 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 1: deep dive into it and more on the aftermath of 529 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,000 Speaker 1: the state of the Union one of the Democrats. Next 530 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 1: movie that's called All Coming Up an hour to stick 531 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 1: around play Travis and buck Sexton on the front lines 532 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 1: of truth. We are here in the third hour of 533 00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 1: the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show. Everybody appreciate you 534 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 1: spending the time with us, and I want to get 535 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:49,520 Speaker 1: right into it now with someone I'm sure many of 536 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 1: you are quite familiar with. Doctor oz Is running right 537 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 1: now in the Great Data Pennsylvania for Senate. He's a 538 00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,760 Speaker 1: Republican candidate in that eight and you all know him 539 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 1: from TV and being a doctor and all that good stuff. 540 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:06,440 Speaker 1: Doctor Oss, thanks for being with us. Blessed than me 541 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 1: with you. My brothers in law are avid listeners, so 542 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 1: I get to show off to them today, which is 543 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 1: hard to do in our family. Well, that's fantastic. They 544 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 1: clearly have very good taste, Doc, So tell us why. 545 00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 1: I mean, for a lot of folks, the most basic 546 00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 1: question before they're running for anything is the is the why. 547 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 1: But you know, you're you're a celebrity, you're a doctor, 548 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 1: and also you're a doctor who plays one on TV too, 549 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 1: because you are one? Why are you getting involved in this? Too? 550 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: Many days looking around at the walls and wondering whether 551 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 1: musty cameras watching me. The countries in such a crisis, 552 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,320 Speaker 1: and no one seems to really be addressing elements of it, 553 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 1: and especially got bad during COVID. I'd noticed it before, 554 00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 1: but since I knew medicine well, I could see mistakes 555 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:52,000 Speaker 1: made that were absolutely intolerable and yet rescifled discussion. People 556 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,920 Speaker 1: who had better ideas were not given the opportunity to speaks. 557 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 1: One of the reasons I've asked for doctor Fauci to resign, 558 00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:00,920 Speaker 1: I've challenged them to debate. I think that his desire 559 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 1: to be the one and only solution for everything COVID 560 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:09,400 Speaker 1: has led to him helping cancel physicians, Nobel laureates, doctors 561 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:11,960 Speaker 1: and scientists who had ideas that I think could have 562 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 1: contributed and eased the pain of so many drink COVID. 563 00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 1: I also witnessed firsthand errors in how we've managed the 564 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:22,400 Speaker 1: pandemic with regard to mandates, where we took a a 565 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:25,960 Speaker 1: meat cleaver to American civil liberties, and our guilty to 566 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 1: actually be independent and individualism should drive those decisions, not government, 567 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 1: top down authoritarian mandates. Doctor. I was appreciate you coming 568 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 1: on with us. I'm curious what you think when you 569 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:42,959 Speaker 1: see on Monday Joe Biden walking wearing a huge mask 570 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:46,400 Speaker 1: as he crosses the White House lawn, and then last 571 00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:49,479 Speaker 1: night during the State of the Union there's basically no 572 00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:53,720 Speaker 1: mask to be seen. He's shaking hands, he's headbutting people. 573 00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 1: Believe it or not, it's such a bastardization. I would 574 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:01,920 Speaker 1: imagine of the science argument to have one day a 575 00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 1: guy walking around outdoors with a mask. On the next 576 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:07,720 Speaker 1: day he's hugging and shaking hands and everything else. How 577 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:11,120 Speaker 1: frustrating is that to see as a doctor and recognize 578 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 1: how poor of a job in many ways our government 579 00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 1: has done explaining risk analysis and COVID. You know what's 580 00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:23,800 Speaker 1: shocking to me is they, with the hypocritical tone, say 581 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 1: we're following the science, and what they're really doing is 582 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 1: following the political science. This is all theater. It has 583 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:32,920 Speaker 1: been theater for quite a while. We see that when 584 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 1: we look at red states versus blue states in their outcomes. 585 00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 1: But over the past two months has been a slow 586 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:41,360 Speaker 1: easing of these mandates in blue states, and especially for 587 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 1: the last few weeks, because they realize people have had it. 588 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 1: I mean, you could only be dishonest to a certain degree, 589 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 1: and people even in your own party begin to revolt. 590 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:54,800 Speaker 1: And what we're describing as a classic example of leaders 591 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:58,480 Speaker 1: who are making jaconian decisions about what people should suffer through, 592 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:02,200 Speaker 1: but not living through those same restrictions themselves. Restated people 593 00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 1: with big backyards told people with no backyards early in 594 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,920 Speaker 1: the pandemic to stay indoors, and that's exactly where the 595 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 1: virus was so literally, not only were these authoritarian moves 596 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:15,840 Speaker 1: harmful indirectly because they leaded deaths of despair, but they 597 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,480 Speaker 1: were directly harmful. They didn't help us. They actually made 598 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 1: things worse. And you can most clearly see this with kids. 599 00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:26,360 Speaker 1: What society, What self respecting people use their children as shields. 600 00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 1: We closed our schools down and never opened them in 601 00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 1: many parts of the country for such a long period 602 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 1: that we may have caused irreparable harm to those kids. 603 00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 1: Yet early on I said, Europeans they're keeping their schools open. 604 00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 1: They love their kids more than we love our kids. 605 00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:42,680 Speaker 1: What's going on here? And I think those are the 606 00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:46,440 Speaker 1: kinds of decisions once made, they were unwilling to backtrack on, 607 00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,760 Speaker 1: and then it's evolved into this. You know, I believe 608 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:53,640 Speaker 1: in science maneuvering, which is just first of all, I 609 00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 1: believe in God right. Science is a tool. I'm a scientist, 610 00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 1: a doctor. I use science to help save lives. But 611 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 1: it's something that's supposed to be challenged, supposed to be 612 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:05,080 Speaker 1: improved on, and we did not allow that to happen. 613 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:08,719 Speaker 1: And COPE is just an example the same maneuvering, The 614 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:11,239 Speaker 1: same approach has been going on for quite a while. 615 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:13,279 Speaker 1: I lived through it on my show. I would take 616 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:16,239 Speaker 1: on government issues frequently and get beaten back, at least 617 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:18,960 Speaker 1: they try to, and I'd be you know, I at 618 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:21,840 Speaker 1: Porcupine about these issues. Continue to strike back until we 619 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:24,680 Speaker 1: finally get the truth out there. But forget about COVID 620 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,160 Speaker 1: for a second. What's happening an energy policy which directly 621 00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:28,960 Speaker 1: led what's happening in the Ukraine. What's happening in our 622 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:31,719 Speaker 1: school system where we don't let parents and at least 623 00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:35,640 Speaker 1: their values get shared with the kids. Well, our teachers 624 00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:39,280 Speaker 1: are indoctrinating our kids with values that don't agree with ours. 625 00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:41,000 Speaker 1: We see this at the border when you have false 626 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 1: narratives and the true story of a cartel run human 627 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:48,680 Speaker 1: trafficking operation doesn't actually reach the front pages. These are 628 00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 1: the kinds of things that bother us. And I'll end 629 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:53,720 Speaker 1: with China, because the real existential threat here is China. 630 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,240 Speaker 1: They've eaten our lunch, they steal from us, take advantage 631 00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 1: of us, They cheated everything. And they're watching Putin very 632 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 1: carefully and saying, I can't believe Putin got away with 633 00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:05,160 Speaker 1: this much. Already, as horrible as it is, he's thinking, well, 634 00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:07,440 Speaker 1: maybe I'll do the same thing with Taiwan. Ten percent 635 00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:09,879 Speaker 1: of the world semiconductors, eighty five percent of the high 636 00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:12,319 Speaker 1: quality ones, all of it at risk because they see 637 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:16,279 Speaker 1: us as weak. We're speaking of mathmt Jengi's Oz, Doctor Oz. 638 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 1: I hope I got that almost correct. Doctor Oz, as 639 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 1: you all know him from TV. He's a surgeon, healthcare 640 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:25,799 Speaker 1: advocate and running for Senate in Pennsylvania. He's in the 641 00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:29,120 Speaker 1: Republican primary right now. So with that in mind, doctor Oz, 642 00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:33,480 Speaker 1: how would you describe your political philosophy? Are you a conservative? 643 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:35,920 Speaker 1: Have you always been or you a more recent convert? 644 00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,959 Speaker 1: I mean, what should people know about what's your core 645 00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:43,600 Speaker 1: what your foundation of politics is. I'm a conservative Republican, 646 00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 1: always have been. When I was eight years of age, 647 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:48,800 Speaker 1: my father, who was an immigrant who came here legally 648 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 1: because the United States was recruiting physicians, told me we 649 00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:53,279 Speaker 1: were Republicans. And I asked him why, and he says, 650 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:56,960 Speaker 1: because they have better ideas the realities of life a Republican. 651 00:35:57,280 --> 00:35:59,919 Speaker 1: So my first election was in nineteen eighty for Ronald Reagan, 652 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:02,640 Speaker 1: who I've voted for, and I'm proud to have voted 653 00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:06,319 Speaker 1: for Republicans, and I believe the Republican Party represents what 654 00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:09,400 Speaker 1: conservative thought could be. Not all Republicans are conservative, but 655 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:12,120 Speaker 1: I am. And I feel strongly that the issues that 656 00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:14,440 Speaker 1: galvanize me, and you know, I'm pro life, pro Second 657 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:17,120 Speaker 1: Amendment in a big way. Every law abiding American citizen 658 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:19,280 Speaker 1: order to be allowed to own a farm armor their choice. 659 00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:23,840 Speaker 1: These are all issues that are important here in Pennsylvania. 660 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:25,279 Speaker 1: And if you take it to the next step, what 661 00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:27,400 Speaker 1: I really want to do is protect my children and 662 00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 1: your children. It's one of the reasons I decided to 663 00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:32,320 Speaker 1: close the show. By the way, I burned the boats 664 00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 1: right when you when you when you go into politics, 665 00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:38,520 Speaker 1: you have you're hosting a syndicated network television show. You're 666 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,760 Speaker 1: not allowed to air that show because it's unfair because 667 00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 1: you're everywhere, And so I shut the show down, shut 668 00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:47,000 Speaker 1: the magazine down, did all the things that I thought 669 00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:49,560 Speaker 1: was right, because I feel so passionately about this, and 670 00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:52,600 Speaker 1: as a conservative, I know that some of the mistakes 671 00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 1: we've made our affect you are kids in ways that 672 00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:59,839 Speaker 1: will be more difficult to improve, because if the kids 673 00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 1: are taught to be Marxists, then they're not going to 674 00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:07,720 Speaker 1: understand the verious foundations of what conservatism represents. You mentioned 675 00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:11,040 Speaker 1: that show. I'm kind of curious about this. How much 676 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:14,160 Speaker 1: money did you walk away from? I like to burn 677 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:17,120 Speaker 1: the boat's analogy. How much money did you walk away 678 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:20,759 Speaker 1: from to run for political office where obviously, unless you're 679 00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:24,160 Speaker 1: Joe Biden's family, you don't typically get super wealthy from 680 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:27,760 Speaker 1: it already, but you had to have a highly successful show. 681 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 1: I'm just really intrigued by a decision like that, because 682 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:34,400 Speaker 1: you're turning away probably tens of millions of dollars to 683 00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:37,640 Speaker 1: be able to run for a political office. That's the 684 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:42,160 Speaker 1: exact amount I walked away from. And I've been blessed. Yeah, 685 00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:45,359 Speaker 1: I mean That's a really interesting discussion, right, because there's 686 00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:46,680 Speaker 1: a lot of people out there you were saying, Hey, 687 00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:48,440 Speaker 1: I could make tens of millions of dollars, but I 688 00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:51,839 Speaker 1: care so much about these issues that I'm willing to 689 00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:55,799 Speaker 1: walk away from that money. You know how deflating it 690 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:58,560 Speaker 1: is to sit in your safe little studio, air conditioned, 691 00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:01,600 Speaker 1: lots of people pampering you, or in the operating room 692 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:03,480 Speaker 1: because I still take care patience, and you know it's 693 00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:06,840 Speaker 1: pretty safe there. If you're not the patience and witness 694 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:11,440 Speaker 1: your country falling apart. What's the point of making a 695 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:16,160 Speaker 1: couple of extra zeros of money when what has allowed 696 00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 1: my family to thrive and prosper, which is the generosity, wisdom, 697 00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:23,240 Speaker 1: and strength of America, is being torn down, torn asunder 698 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:26,600 Speaker 1: because people feel we are so irredeemably stained that the 699 00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:28,720 Speaker 1: only way to fix us is to break us asunder 700 00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:30,839 Speaker 1: in the little pieces and then rebuild us with their 701 00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:34,840 Speaker 1: toxic ideology. And I refuse to stand by and watch 702 00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:37,440 Speaker 1: that happen. And it's okay if it doesn't work out, 703 00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:40,520 Speaker 1: you know when hopefully years from now. I try to 704 00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:42,960 Speaker 1: live a heavy, healthy lifestyle, even on the campaign trail 705 00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:46,520 Speaker 1: and diner food years from now, when I passed away 706 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:50,760 Speaker 1: on my headstone, I wanted to read heart surgeon TV host. 707 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:53,520 Speaker 1: If it happens to say Senator, that's great too. I 708 00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 1: don't intend to go there and live and washing the 709 00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 1: rest of my life. I'm trying to do an intervention 710 00:38:57,719 --> 00:38:59,919 Speaker 1: to help doctor. I should have probably asked you the job. 711 00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 1: Given the news cycle right now, if you had a 712 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:05,040 Speaker 1: chance to watch some are all the State of the 713 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:08,359 Speaker 1: Union address, and what you're feeling is as somebody who 714 00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:10,959 Speaker 1: wants to get into this fight about the current White 715 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 1: House and the regime that's been calling the shots the 716 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:17,000 Speaker 1: last year and a year or so. I was not 717 00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:18,759 Speaker 1: impressed by the State of the Union. Of course they 718 00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:21,839 Speaker 1: watched it. I watched the Republican response as well. It's 719 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:25,279 Speaker 1: disappointing that Joe Biden painted a vastly different picture of 720 00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:27,800 Speaker 1: his first year in office than the disastrous being experienced 721 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:30,440 Speaker 1: by the vast majority of Americans. You go, I do 722 00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:33,839 Speaker 1: these big town halls here in Pennsylvania. No one here 723 00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:37,640 Speaker 1: thinks that's what's going on. We're worried about the record inflation. 724 00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:41,000 Speaker 1: We're experiencing gas prices obviously an eight year high. I 725 00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 1: did a TikTok video, by the way, on gas prices, 726 00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:46,680 Speaker 1: they got two million views. Almost immediately, TikTok took it down, 727 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:48,440 Speaker 1: which again is part of the century, and that bothers 728 00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:50,399 Speaker 1: me so much. I put it back up again because 729 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:52,279 Speaker 1: I got thirteen million people on social media, So I 730 00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:54,200 Speaker 1: went to say, why the taking it down? Now? It 731 00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:56,600 Speaker 1: has set in a half billion views, But why would 732 00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:58,600 Speaker 1: I not be able to mention the reality of what 733 00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:01,799 Speaker 1: the average Americans saw free through right now? And these 734 00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:04,840 Speaker 1: are issues that are addressable. Our energy policy makes zero 735 00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:07,440 Speaker 1: sense if you especially if you look at the Ukraine. 736 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:09,919 Speaker 1: We should be Joe Biden yesterday and State of Union 737 00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:12,799 Speaker 1: should have designated key oil and gas projects in our 738 00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:16,359 Speaker 1: country to be critical infrastructure for national security, and then 739 00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:19,960 Speaker 1: they do everything to protect those those efforts, because right now, 740 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:21,759 Speaker 1: no one's going to get the natural gas out from 741 00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:24,120 Speaker 1: under my feet in Pennsylvania, although we could power the 742 00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:26,920 Speaker 1: whole country for a century and ship it to our 743 00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:31,000 Speaker 1: European allies to free them from the yoke of Russia. 744 00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:34,239 Speaker 1: Doctor Oz, do you think that Oprah would vote for 745 00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:38,000 Speaker 1: you if she were living in Pennsylvania. I don't know 746 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:41,239 Speaker 1: she's you know, I talked to her before I ran, 747 00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:43,960 Speaker 1: I just inform her. I asked her not to get 748 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:47,560 Speaker 1: involved because it's the right thing to do, and she agreed. 749 00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:49,719 Speaker 1: So I have no idea. I think she'd have to 750 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:53,200 Speaker 1: like everybody else in Pennsylvania a way what I'm saying, 751 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:55,640 Speaker 1: compared to everybody else, and make the best choice of 752 00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:57,560 Speaker 1: her ability, but themote. One thing I'm sure is that 753 00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:00,320 Speaker 1: she would vote. The other thing I was going to 754 00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:02,239 Speaker 1: say about that is you came. We talked a little 755 00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:04,840 Speaker 1: bit about you coming out of the television studio and 756 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:08,719 Speaker 1: running for political office. You're a beloved guy, you know, 757 00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:10,920 Speaker 1: when you're the doctor who's trying to get everybody to 758 00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:13,600 Speaker 1: be healthy. I mentioned Oprah, You have a great relationship 759 00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:16,120 Speaker 1: with them. You mentioned the millions of followers you have. 760 00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:19,520 Speaker 1: And then you step into a fray where people start 761 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:23,320 Speaker 1: throwing punches at you. How much different does that feel 762 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:26,880 Speaker 1: than what you were doing beforehand, where you're sort of 763 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:32,080 Speaker 1: a non ideological doctor figure who everybody kind of responds 764 00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:34,239 Speaker 1: to in a favorable way. And then you step in 765 00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:37,240 Speaker 1: and you start get taking slings and arrows, so to speak. 766 00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:40,880 Speaker 1: How has that been an adjustment for you? You know 767 00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:44,400 Speaker 1: it's going to surprise you it's a very cathartic process. 768 00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:49,040 Speaker 1: You don't have to pretend that you're and you know, 769 00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:52,520 Speaker 1: refrain from saying things because you know people are going 770 00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:55,239 Speaker 1: to get all upset about it. You can say exactly 771 00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:58,000 Speaker 1: what you're thinking because people are going to vote based 772 00:41:58,040 --> 00:41:59,840 Speaker 1: on that, and you are the person you are. So 773 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:03,000 Speaker 1: for me, it's been incredibly freeing. I love my show. 774 00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:06,560 Speaker 1: I love talking about health. But when I got frustrated about, 775 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:10,120 Speaker 1: for example, what I thought she was doing leading our 776 00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:13,640 Speaker 1: public health response, I tried to say things. But after 777 00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:15,520 Speaker 1: a while, people you know, they don't want you saying 778 00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:19,000 Speaker 1: those things, and you've got incredible pressures to make sure 779 00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:21,120 Speaker 1: you stay within a little Cordan limit, which is why 780 00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:23,520 Speaker 1: I know what it's like for corporate America right now. 781 00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:25,399 Speaker 1: They don't want to get involved. I'm here to say 782 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,279 Speaker 1: you have to get involved, be a patriot, stand up 783 00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:30,400 Speaker 1: for what you know is right. Say what you see 784 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:33,160 Speaker 1: at these town halls. That's my one plea. You know, 785 00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:34,959 Speaker 1: I think you'd vote for me if you came and listening, 786 00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:36,440 Speaker 1: because if you've heard me speak, you'd want to be 787 00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:39,359 Speaker 1: part of our campaign effort. But no matter what, just 788 00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:41,719 Speaker 1: say what you're seeing because if you don't, and no 789 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:43,719 Speaker 1: one else does. We're going to believe all this woke 790 00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:48,600 Speaker 1: ideology that's suffocating our brains. Doctor oz dot com. Doctor 791 00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:52,919 Speaker 1: oz is running for the Senate folks in Pennsylvania, Doctor Oz, 792 00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:56,279 Speaker 1: appreciate it, sir, thanks so much.

You need to hear it. 798 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:17,719 Speaker 1: But on nine to eleven and two thousand and one, 799 00:43:18,080 --> 00:43:21,000 Speaker 1: two thousand, nine hundred and seventy seven people were killed 800 00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:23,680 Speaker 1: in terrorist attacks on American soil. The lives of those 801 00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:26,680 Speaker 1: individuals and their families will be forever remembered. The family 802 00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:28,880 Speaker 1: of one of those lost that day, the Siller family, 803 00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:32,400 Speaker 1: started the Tunnelata Towers Foundation.
