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 --> 00:00:07,600
Speaker 1: Sexton Show Podcast. Tuesday edition of The Clay Travis and

3
00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:11,039
Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show gets going right now. Everybody appreciate you

4
00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:14,480
Speaker 1: being with us. Much to discuss as always we've got

5
00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:19,200
Speaker 1: Is it gonna be Trump Tuesday? Tonight? Is it gonna

6
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:23,080
Speaker 1: actually happen? Is the man himself, former president at number

7
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:27,240
Speaker 1: forty five? Is he going to make a big announcement,

8
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:30,480
Speaker 1: very big that we're gonna hear about it tonight? We'll see.

9
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:32,800
Speaker 1: I think it's scheduled for tonight or on eight or

10
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 1: nine pm Eastern. There's a press conference of sorts at

11
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:40,440
Speaker 1: Marrow Lago, so we'll obviously be talking about where that's

12
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 1: all going. Republicans, as I speak to you, I believe

13
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 1: are one seat from officially one seat from the House

14
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 1: majority Lauren Bobert's win in Colorado, but if a come

15
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 1: from behind situation there we have had, I think it's

16
00:00:58,160 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 1: important for everyone to hear this. We have had some

17
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 1: very narrow contests in a few states that have in

18
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:09,399
Speaker 1: fact gone for the Republican even after some delays in

19
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:11,840
Speaker 1: the vote counts. So we just have to make sure

20
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:14,959
Speaker 1: we're clear on all the facts everywhere as we look

21
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 1: at what the heck happened here, we got Lee Zelden,

22
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:23,919
Speaker 1: who I think did as much as any individual for

23
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 1: the Republicans to have a House majority here, the imminent

24
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: House majority he's Zelden is reportedly considering a bid for

25
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 1: chair of the Republican National Committee after his exceptional, unsuccessful,

26
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 1: but still exceptional run in the New York gubernatorial race.

27
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell, speaking of leadership, still planning to rush through

28
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 1: that vote, and I have a feeling that he will

29
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 1: continue to be Senate Minority leader. I know it makes

30
00:01:55,600 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 1: me sad, but it is what it is, as they say. Also,

31
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 1: there was a pretty funny Elon Musk Twitter exchange where

32
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 1: he got called out by one of his developers. You

33
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 1: gotta figure, if you're a Twitter employee at this point,

34
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 1: given what's going on over there, you might want to

35
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 1: keep your head down, particularly when it comes to the

36
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 1: over one hundred million followers of the boss. When you

37
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,920
Speaker 1: say you don't know what you're talking about publicly, we'll

38
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 1: tell you how that little Twitter exchange went here in

39
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,119
Speaker 1: just a few minutes. Also, the New York Times admitting

40
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 1: that puberty blockers for adolescence have some really negative consequences.

41
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 1: Oh wow, you mean the most obvious assessment imaginable, but

42
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:40,399
Speaker 1: one that we haven't been allowed to say out loud.

43
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 1: Certainly they wouldn't say out loud before the election. Will

44
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 1: discuss but Clay, you know what I'm gonna say. Man,

45
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 1: You know where I'm going here, buddy, Because look, the

46
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 1: House majority is a good thing. It's not all that

47
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:57,520
Speaker 1: we wanted, but it's it's prevented total disaster in this election.

48
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:01,799
Speaker 1: It means that things are edging toward a better place.

49
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 1: But Carry Lake, Clay lost the governor's race in Arizona.

50
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 1: As of last night. We had it on the show

51
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:14,519
Speaker 1: a lot compelling to so many people. What happened, my man?

52
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 1: So there are two things that I would say stunned

53
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:23,680
Speaker 1: me about this election. One, as we have discussed, is

54
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 1: John Fetterman winning and winning by four and a half

55
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 1: points in Pennsylvania in a manner that wasn't particularly close.

56
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: That stunned me. I'm also stunned that Carry Lake lost.

57
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 1: Now the margin is going to be around twenty thousand

58
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 1: votes at least right now, it is, but to me,

59
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 1: if you are a Republican voter, you have to take

60
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 1: a step back and think about this question. Democrats managed

61
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 1: to elect the worst candidate that either party nominated for

62
00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 1: a statewide election, John Fetterman, and Republican in an open seat,

63
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 1: and Republicans could not elect Carry Lake, who I think

64
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 1: was the best candidate who ran the best campaign of

65
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 1: anyone for an open seat, and just to make it clear,

66
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 1: for open seat, I mean non incumbent, right, And you've

67
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 1: heard me talk about how much I love everything that

68
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,479
Speaker 1: Carry Lake did. So if Democrats can elect the worst

69
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 1: statewide candidate, which I think it's fair to say buck

70
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: John Fetterman was based on his only policies, but also

71
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:32,600
Speaker 1: his health, and if Republicans could not elect these are

72
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 1: in purple states and toss up states like Arizona and Pennsylvania,

73
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 1: the best candidate that either party put forward, something is

74
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:44,920
Speaker 1: severely wrong with the way that we are running elections. Okay, Now,

75
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:46,159
Speaker 1: I know a lot of people out there are going

76
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:50,600
Speaker 1: to say, well, the election was stolen, and certainly I

77
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:54,600
Speaker 1: understand that argument. If there is any evidence that is

78
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:58,160
Speaker 1: found that the election was stolen, will be the first

79
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,480
Speaker 1: to talk about it on this program. But what did

80
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 1: we say for months on this show we had to

81
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:08,920
Speaker 1: win outside the margin of error. We had to put

82
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 1: it so unquestionably in the Republican camp, and we didn't

83
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 1: do it. And there are Republicans listening to us right

84
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 1: now in Arizona. According to the data, that ended up

85
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 1: voting for Democrats. And so when you look at the

86
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 1: results that came out of these elections, Democrats were more

87
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 1: loyal to their candidates than Republicans were to theirs. And so, Buck,

88
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 1: I think we have a lot of big questions to

89
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,960
Speaker 1: answer to discuss. Now. This is not a cataclysm, right

90
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 1: Basically every incumbent won election. There are incredible stories for Republicans.

91
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 1: What happened in Florida is if I had told you

92
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 1: four years ago that Ronda Santis was going to win

93
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 1: reelection by twenty points after he had won by thirty

94
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 1: thousand votes, none of you would have believed it. If

95
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 1: I had told you that Leez Eldon was going to

96
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 1: nearly beat Kathy Hokel, and that the reason why we

97
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 1: were going to have a House majority was because so

98
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:04,599
Speaker 1: many Republicans in New York were going to come out

99
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,039
Speaker 1: and turn much of New York read, none of you

100
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 1: would have believed me. If I had said that Brian

101
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 1: Kemp was going to beat Stacey Abrahams by eight points,

102
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,279
Speaker 1: or that Beto was going to lose by double digits

103
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,359
Speaker 1: to Greg Abbott. There are a lot of really good

104
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 1: stories out there, but ultimately we won a narrow house majority,

105
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,919
Speaker 1: and it looks like we're going to lose either one

106
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 1: or have a draw depending on what happens in the

107
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:30,599
Speaker 1: runoff with Herschel Walker and the Reverend Raphael Warnock. Despite

108
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,480
Speaker 1: the fact Buck that Joe Biden is the worst president

109
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 1: of our lives. So this is a time to assess.

110
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 1: This is a time to analyze, go back and look

111
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 1: at the proverbial game film and figure out what you

112
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 1: need to do to win a landslide election in twenty

113
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 1: four I think one important story about politics right now

114
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:56,920
Speaker 1: in recent years that could illuminate the path forward here

115
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:02,600
Speaker 1: would be the situation California from twenty eighteen to California

116
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:06,480
Speaker 1: obviously the ultimate blue stronghold, the most important Democrats state,

117
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 1: but there are some red areas. I mean, there are

118
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 1: millions of Republicans who live in California, a whole bunch

119
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 1: of them. Listen to this show got big audience in

120
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 1: Los Angeles, big audience at San Diego. Be good point

121
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 1: to bring that Homebuck. More people voted for Donald Trump

122
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 1: in California in twenty twenty than Texas. Yeah, that stuns

123
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 1: a lot of people. So while you won't win statewide

124
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 1: right now with the numbers as they are, you can

125
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 1: win individual congressional seats. Twenty eighteen was and people forget this. Democrats,

126
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 1: it was kind of not such a great night for them,

127
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 1: and then it actually got better over time. Why because

128
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 1: there were some places like California where they were already

129
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 1: expanding a lot of these different voting provisions, and nail

130
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 1: in voting became a major focus of Democrats. Obviously, twenty

131
00:07:56,440 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 1: twenty supercharged this the COVID year, but Democrats were able

132
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 1: to use tools to their advantage Republicans. It's interesting I

133
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 1: was reading about this in the Orange County Register and

134
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 1: had t hit my friend Kurt Schlichter and Mike Ernovich

135
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:16,240
Speaker 1: for putting this information out there. You see that there

136
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 1: are Republican groups that took it upon themselves to do

137
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 1: the things that Democrats had done in California. Meaning they're like,

138
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 1: you know what, if they're gonna do ballot harvesting, if

139
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: they're gonna do drop boxes if they're gonna remember encouraging

140
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 1: people to do mail in This is a simple numbers game.

141
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 1: You tell everybody to show up to your party, and

142
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 1: I mean like a party, like a birthday party. If

143
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 1: you say you got to show up on this day,

144
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 1: I just had an engagement party, Clay. Sometimes you know,

145
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 1: someone gets COVID, someone gets a sore throat, someone can't

146
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,560
Speaker 1: make it, the kids got you know, extra school stuff. Whatever.

147
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,080
Speaker 1: Do you tell somebody, hey, you can show up. My

148
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 1: party's thirty days long. You show up any day, and

149
00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 1: that's considered showing up to my party. That obviously is

150
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:05,359
Speaker 1: going to just help you from a pure yield perspective.

151
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 1: So in California they did some of this, and guess

152
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:12,960
Speaker 1: what the effect is. California and New York are going

153
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,600
Speaker 1: to be two states that, even though they're very blue,

154
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:21,319
Speaker 1: gave us enough tightly contested Republican wins in Congress that

155
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 1: we're actually not in the nightmare position of losing or

156
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 1: not having control of the House again not being able

157
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 1: to take control of the House. So we have to

158
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:32,960
Speaker 1: look at some of the case studies here about well,

159
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 1: what would actually work, how would we win? Because that

160
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,560
Speaker 1: to throw up your hands in despair and nothing matters.

161
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,680
Speaker 1: And if we get into election nihilism with oh my gosh,

162
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 1: they cheat all the time, well we have to find

163
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,920
Speaker 1: ways to beat them even though they're cheating. I know

164
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:49,720
Speaker 1: we can't retreat into our turtle shell and say, well

165
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,320
Speaker 1: they cheat, we gotta find ways to beat them or

166
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 1: else what are we even doing getting out there and

167
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,240
Speaker 1: thinking this country isn't finished, which I refuse to ever

168
00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,319
Speaker 1: believe this country is finished. We're gonna take it back

169
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:03,200
Speaker 1: from these communes. I think that's an important point because

170
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 1: what I am seeing in reaction. First of all, let's

171
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:12,920
Speaker 1: start here. Millions more people voted for Republicans then voted

172
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 1: for Democrats so far in the tally, that's a pretty

173
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:21,480
Speaker 1: substantial swing. So another crazy staff for you, Buck. You're

174
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 1: talking about California. It looks like Ron de Santis is

175
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 1: going to win Florida by more than Gavin Newsom wins California.

176
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,199
Speaker 1: I haven't seen very many people talk about this. Gavin

177
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 1: Newsom's up around seventeen or eighteen right now in California.

178
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 1: Ron de Santis won by nearly twenty in Florida. That's

179
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:45,840
Speaker 1: pretty seismic and So Donald Trump is going to announce tonight,

180
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,200
Speaker 1: and the twenty twenty four campaign is going to begin

181
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 1: effectively in earnest some point in the near future January February.

182
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:58,240
Speaker 1: Joe Biden's going to have to decide, Hey, am I

183
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 1: going to run or not? Both of us now think

184
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 1: that he's going to run, and then we're basically going

185
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,800
Speaker 1: to be off and running. And some of the data

186
00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:08,680
Speaker 1: points that we need to consider, and I'll talk about

187
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 1: this a little bit when we come back, are what

188
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:16,320
Speaker 1: did we support that turned off persuadable voters and how

189
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 1: do we get those persuadable voters to break in our direction?

190
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,680
Speaker 1: Because one of the big surprises in addition to me

191
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 1: that Republicans were not as loyal to their candidates as

192
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 1: Democrats were. In other words, Republicans were more likely to

193
00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 1: split tickets. Independence broke for Democrats. How in the world

194
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:37,920
Speaker 1: did Independence look around at the worst president of our

195
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:42,520
Speaker 1: live and make the decision, Hey, we need to support

196
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 1: more of this. It's stunning to me. And so I

197
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 1: think as we sort of sift through the returns and

198
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:54,079
Speaker 1: contemplate what took place across the nation, we're going to

199
00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 1: have the house. We're going to have a significant check

200
00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 1: on Joe Biden that effectively keeps him from getting very much.

201
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,560
Speaker 1: I'd like to think we could still win in Georgia

202
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 1: and basically put Joe Mansion in control of the United

203
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:09,120
Speaker 1: States Senate, as fickle and unreliable as he may be.

204
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:13,040
Speaker 1: Did you see Buck. Just in the last couple of hours,

205
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:16,720
Speaker 1: it's been announced one of the Republicans in West Virginia

206
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 1: has announced that he's taken on Joe Mansion. So the

207
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:24,160
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four Senate campaign has already begun in earnest

208
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,320
Speaker 1: and Joe Mansion's gonna have to make a decision because

209
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:29,560
Speaker 1: he's not winning. I mean, you talk about why what

210
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 1: happens with herschel matters in a big way. There should

211
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 1: be two easy pickups. I believe four Republicans in twenty

212
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 1: twenty four. We should pick up Montana and we should

213
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 1: pick up West Virginia. Now, there's many other states where

214
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,240
Speaker 1: we could run competitively in depending on how things go,

215
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:50,280
Speaker 1: but we should pick up two seats just by virtue

216
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:54,720
Speaker 1: of Montana's deep read and West Virginia is deeparad. There's

217
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 1: no reason that Democrats should be elected to represent those places.

218
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,280
Speaker 1: And so I think we're going to pick up two

219
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 1: just by virtue of the map, and as we said,

220
00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,080
Speaker 1: Democrats are going to have to defend a lot more.

221
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,000
Speaker 1: So this is a big deal as we start to

222
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 1: think about it. But I want to share some data

223
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 1: with you and we come back that is jumping out

262
00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 1: terms of unique listeners to the podcast. That is pretty incredible. Okay,

263
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 1: so we don't officially have the word yet of the

264
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 1: two hundred and eighteenth House seat, but there are four

265
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 1: seats right now that Republicans are leading in, any one

266
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 1: of which would be to eighteen. I suspect that at

267
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:46,560
Speaker 1: some point today we will officially know that Republicans have

268
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 1: taken control of the House. This is important because it

269
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 1: gives the Republicans in the House the gabbles to be

270
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 1: able to conduct the hearings, to control the direction, to control. Frankly,

271
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 1: some of the counterna arrative coming out of the Biden

272
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 1: White House and Jim Jordan's office. I can confirm this

273
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 1: report is true. Jim Jordan's office, they had a meeting.

274
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:14,920
Speaker 1: Congressman was on with us. Was it Monday Friday? I

275
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 1: think it was. We had Jim Jordans on last week,

276
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 1: Rand Paul Senator Grassley, Senator Ron Johnson, Roger Marshall and Comer,

277
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 1: all of them senators in the meeting with Jim Jordan,

278
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:35,160
Speaker 1: and it was primarily focused on holding doctor Fauci accountable

279
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 1: for his lies and potential COVID investigations. Now, Rand Paul,

280
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 1: I'm sure we need to get him on again soon. Unfortunately,

281
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 1: Democrats are going to control the Senate, so Rand Paul

282
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 1: will not control or be able to determine what is

283
00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:55,560
Speaker 1: or is not what is is or not the committee's

284
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 1: hearings that they're going to be having. So in general,

285
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,040
Speaker 1: as you break all of this down, a lot of

286
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,119
Speaker 1: this now is going to be in the control of

287
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 1: the House buck and this is one major impact. This

288
00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 1: is an important part of what House control can represent.

289
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 1: Jim Jordan is going to be able, I hope, at

290
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:20,080
Speaker 1: some point to make doctor Fauci cry, because he needs

291
00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:22,239
Speaker 1: to be held accountable for all the wise that he

292
00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 1: has shared. And we're going to have real hearings on

293
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:29,440
Speaker 1: COVID where COVID came from, all the cover up, all

294
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:34,200
Speaker 1: of the mandates, everything else. And they're already working in coordination.

295
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:36,720
Speaker 1: It sounds like the Senate and the House to ensure

296
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 1: that those hearings take place, they'll have to take place

297
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:42,960
Speaker 1: now in the House hearings are a good thing when

298
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:47,679
Speaker 1: the Republicans are able to direct the subject matter. In general,

299
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's necessary for us to have

300
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 1: a full accounting of what happened during COVID. I would

301
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:58,640
Speaker 1: just admit now, though doesn't seem like people really care

302
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:02,399
Speaker 1: enough to vote on it. That's unfortunately, unfortunately, right I

303
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 1: had hoped that our little trial run of authoritarianism. I

304
00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:11,119
Speaker 1: had a hope that are you know, thirty days or actually,

305
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, eighteen months of free communism wasn't something during

306
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:20,240
Speaker 1: the COVID era that would go without political punishment. Unfortunately,

307
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,760
Speaker 1: it was largely as large as the case. I think

308
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 1: that they were able. They were lucky in that we

309
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:28,640
Speaker 1: had gotten far enough away from that that people just

310
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:32,439
Speaker 1: wanted to move on. And there is this there's this

311
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:34,400
Speaker 1: mentality a lot of people have it about a whole

312
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 1: range of issues. When you've dealt with something that was

313
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:39,840
Speaker 1: really difficult, maybe even traumatic, your brain does want to

314
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 1: move on. And we're seeing some of the implications of that.

315
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:44,960
Speaker 1: We've seen it in the last week or so with

316
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,200
Speaker 1: this election. People don't want to hear about the then

317
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,480
Speaker 1: they want to hear about them now. So while I

318
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:51,520
Speaker 1: liked that, there will be I mean, no one will

319
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:55,879
Speaker 1: be more approving of Fauci sitting there and saying I

320
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 1: didn't say that thing. I said another thing and another time.

321
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,159
Speaker 1: And why you being so mean to me, Rand Paul,

322
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 1: I've never said anything so mean to you. While I

323
00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:10,240
Speaker 1: think that'll be entertaining and worthwhile, it's not going to

324
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 1: change the trajectory of political control in this country. And

325
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 1: I would remind everybody Clay I said this at the

326
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 1: time when Obama won reelection in twenty twelve, and it

327
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 1: hurt me to say it, but I got a lot

328
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:25,719
Speaker 1: of heat. I said. Accountability for Benghazi just went out

329
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,439
Speaker 1: the window, just so everybody knows there will. And there

330
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,200
Speaker 1: were a lot of hearings and a lot of people

331
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:34,679
Speaker 1: built careers on pounding the table over Benghazi. Nothing happened

332
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:38,760
Speaker 1: to anybody who was involved in that debacle, politically or otherwise.

333
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:40,560
Speaker 1: The only that happened, as we know is four brave

334
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 1: Americans lost their lives and that whole night played out

335
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 1: as it did. But in terms of accountability, there was none.

336
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:51,200
Speaker 1: Accountability for COVID. I'm very skeptical at this point there

337
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,119
Speaker 1: will be any that doesn't. The China origins issue, I

338
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:56,840
Speaker 1: think we should find out just because we should know, hey,

339
00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:58,640
Speaker 1: did this really come from a lab? One hundred percent

340
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 1: because we need to think long and hard about what

341
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:03,439
Speaker 1: kind of research we're doing in these labs. Right, But

342
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:06,439
Speaker 1: even with China, does anyone think that we're gonna what

343
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 1: exactly are we and not a popular sentiment, I'm sure,

344
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 1: what exactly are we going to do about China's responsibility

345
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 1: for the COVID virus? We asked that question. Honestly, we've

346
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 1: done nothing to them, and my hope at this point, Buck,

347
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:22,120
Speaker 1: I think you're right. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be

348
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 1: a COVID reckoning over all of the lies they're they're already.

349
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 1: I saw Bill Gates coming out and saying, well, we

350
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,879
Speaker 1: didn't really know that this only impacted the elderly, and

351
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 1: it was you know, the i fr the fatality rate

352
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:40,320
Speaker 1: was somewhat similar to to flu. Yeah we did. Yeah,

353
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:42,560
Speaker 1: we've known that for all the time. Whole time, all

354
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 1: that data was out there. Buck and I were talking

355
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 1: about it back in like May and June of twenty twenty,

356
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,280
Speaker 1: and it was as if no one was allowed to

357
00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:54,960
Speaker 1: actually discuss that data at this point. Honestly, Buck, what

358
00:20:55,080 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 1: I'm just hoping for is a historical record that eventually

359
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:04,200
Speaker 1: can be written about in the hopes, in the hopes

360
00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 1: that we will learn from the failure of COVID over time,

361
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:12,399
Speaker 1: as the people who were responsible for that failure step

362
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 1: off of the national stage. Maybe it'll be fifty years

363
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:17,960
Speaker 1: from now, we're going to have another pandemic. Right there

364
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:20,480
Speaker 1: is going to be this is going to occur at

365
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 1: some point. Again, hopefully it's long after everybody who was

366
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:27,119
Speaker 1: listening to this show right now has passed. But I

367
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:31,920
Speaker 1: would just hope that our failures on this can be

368
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:35,200
Speaker 1: used in some way as a historical precedent in the

369
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:38,400
Speaker 1: future for what not to do. So if we look

370
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:41,880
Speaker 1: back at the IFR, the individual fatality rate for the

371
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 1: Spanish influenza, which wasn't even really a flu and which didn't,

372
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:48,399
Speaker 1: as we know, start in Spain, it's just a Spanish press.

373
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,200
Speaker 1: Because of wartime regulations in the First World War, we're

374
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,760
Speaker 1: able to write about it. We believe it was started

375
00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:56,120
Speaker 1: actually in a US military base. I think that's there's

376
00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:58,480
Speaker 1: not a definitive, but that's where they think the first

377
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 1: case of it happened. I think the far was five

378
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:04,440
Speaker 1: percent something like that. Five percent of people who got

379
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:09,919
Speaker 1: that died. Now, if there's different kinds of smallpox that

380
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 1: have been the different versions of that virus out there,

381
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:15,920
Speaker 1: but in general you're looking at about a thirty percent,

382
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:19,399
Speaker 1: which is why smallpox was the most devastating disease to

383
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:23,960
Speaker 1: humanity for many, many centuries of recorded history. But Clay,

384
00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:25,920
Speaker 1: if we ever got to a point where we had

385
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:29,399
Speaker 1: an I FAR of two percent, three percent something like that,

386
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 1: I think unfortunately we saw as one our public health

387
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:40,480
Speaker 1: authorities are total morons, have absolutely worthless, and two a

388
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,160
Speaker 1: lot of people would sit there and cheer while they

389
00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:46,440
Speaker 1: took people off to quarantine camps. I mean that's so

390
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 1: to my point, I'm not saying we shouldn't do these hearings.

391
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:52,320
Speaker 1: I think it's essential because I'm more terrified about how

392
00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 1: psycho the left is in this country now because of

393
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,439
Speaker 1: COVID than I've ever been before about anything else. They

394
00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 1: would run the playbook again. And if we had a

395
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 1: virus that wasn't really just a threat to the elderly

396
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:06,080
Speaker 1: and the immunocompromised, God help us man, they would get

397
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:08,640
Speaker 1: ugly in this country I don't think there's any doubt, Buck,

398
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:14,159
Speaker 1: And this is why I think having some form of reckoning,

399
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 1: even if it's just a reckoning in the historical record,

400
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,200
Speaker 1: maybe it leads down the line we end up with

401
00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:25,560
Speaker 1: some prosecutions, maybe some people who are brought that charged

402
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:30,000
Speaker 1: with charged with crimes. I don't know exactly how it's

403
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,240
Speaker 1: all gonna play out, but here's what I do know.

404
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:36,280
Speaker 1: They would totally sweep this under the rug if we

405
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:38,880
Speaker 1: didn't have control of the House. So I just want

406
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:43,240
Speaker 1: a positive story out there for everyone to be cognizant

407
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:46,679
Speaker 1: of that the Senate and the Ron Johnson's and the

408
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:49,520
Speaker 1: Ram Paul's and the Roger Marshall's of the world who

409
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 1: had been standing up on many of these different COVID issues,

410
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:56,240
Speaker 1: they are now working with Jim Jordan on the House

411
00:23:56,280 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 1: side to help. I would presume whatever hearing he's going

412
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,160
Speaker 1: to be able to set up now that we're going

413
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 1: to have the majority in the House. And I do

414
00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:08,800
Speaker 1: think Buck, while we're upset that we didn't win the Senate,

415
00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:13,119
Speaker 1: Joe Biden is going to take and a lot of

416
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,960
Speaker 1: punishment Hunter Biden is the questions are going to be

417
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:18,879
Speaker 1: asked that are so important, and it's going to be

418
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:22,879
Speaker 1: harder for the media to ignore them when the House

419
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 1: has control of these hearings and is able to set

420
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:29,640
Speaker 1: the agenda than it would be if Nancy Pelosi still

421
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 1: had to gabble. You know, one thing we haven't talked

422
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:34,040
Speaker 1: about a little while. It pops up here and there.

423
00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,919
Speaker 1: I saw Drudge had some headlines on it yesterday. Of

424
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:40,200
Speaker 1: course I missed the old Drudge. The new Drudge doesn't

425
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:45,679
Speaker 1: get it done. But whether or not, Trump maybe facing

426
00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:49,360
Speaker 1: some lawfare effort from the Democrats. I mean, he's supposed

427
00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:52,640
Speaker 1: to announce, we started the show mentioning, supposed to announce,

428
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:55,680
Speaker 1: we believe tonight. It's a very big announcement. I mean,

429
00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:58,840
Speaker 1: I don't know how at this point they could decide

430
00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:02,040
Speaker 1: that he's not announcing without it looking quite strange. So

431
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 1: I'm assuming. But you know, with Trent Trump is you know,

432
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 1: he marches to the beat of his own drum. I mean,

433
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 1: who knows. But I think he's gonna announce tonight, which

434
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:14,479
Speaker 1: would mean now that they're talking about possible indictment for

435
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 1: the classified documents. Remember remember, can I just point this

436
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:19,520
Speaker 1: out for a second because it's funny to go back,

437
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,439
Speaker 1: Remember when there was that Breatha's headline in like August,

438
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,640
Speaker 1: it was like Trump had the nuclear secrets. Yes, all

439
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 1: the nuclear secrets were under his bed, under his pillow.

440
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:31,919
Speaker 1: Why is he such a monster? It's an imminent and

441
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:33,720
Speaker 1: now you heard nothing about it for like a few

442
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 1: days because it was obviously you know. Okay, so the

443
00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:38,840
Speaker 1: guy kept like a letter from Kim John Owner or

444
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,399
Speaker 1: something where he said, I mean, the whole thing is

445
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:45,480
Speaker 1: it was so crazy, and we it was so dishonest.

446
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:47,679
Speaker 1: But as we see, they don't care how dishonest it is.

447
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:49,919
Speaker 1: And that's why I think even though, as I say this,

448
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:52,400
Speaker 1: people like Buck, they're not going to indict Trump over

449
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 1: some documents about these little they just they just elected fetterman.

450
00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,360
Speaker 1: For God's sakes, Look what's going on in this country.

451
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 1: I actually think if they indict Trump, it's probably the

452
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,399
Speaker 1: best thing that could happen for Trump's campaign. I really do.

453
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:07,800
Speaker 1: I think many people would rally around Trump. And I

454
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:12,800
Speaker 1: will just point this out. Okay, so Clay is leaving

455
00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,000
Speaker 1: us there with quite a tease because I think we

456
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:16,840
Speaker 1: might have lost connectivity to them for a second. And

457
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 1: I would just say I believe that the Libs are

458
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:25,800
Speaker 1: basically sitting around. The Democrats are sitting around and assessing

459
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:29,919
Speaker 1: exactly that point about whether or not some form of

460
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:35,439
Speaker 1: lawfare against Donald Trump, meaning using the law as a

461
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:39,720
Speaker 1: political weapon, would it be to their advantage. If they

462
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,000
Speaker 1: think it is to their advantage, they'll absolutely do it.

463
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:44,960
Speaker 1: There's no scruples, there's no principle. They think they are

464
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:49,800
Speaker 1: literally saving democracy, saving democracy, so if they have to

465
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:52,359
Speaker 1: burn it down in order to save it, they're fine

466
00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:55,200
Speaker 1: with it. If the DOJ has to be the gasoline

467
00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:59,679
Speaker 1: canister next to our democracy and Merrick Garland has to

468
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 1: have the match, they're fine with that. So we'll see.

469
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:07,199
Speaker 1: I put nothing past them, and I'm certainly you know

470
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:10,240
Speaker 1: these days. Man. To my credit, I always say nobody

471
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,639
Speaker 1: can predict the future, and I'm right about that. Nobody

472
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:16,399
Speaker 1: can predict the future. So we're assessing, we're analyzing, and

473
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 1: Claire will be back with us here in just a moment.

474
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:22,359
Speaker 1: But you know one thing that doctor Fauci wants for

475
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,720
Speaker 1: all of you out there, especially for the men in

476
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:29,159
Speaker 1: the audience, It would be to your benefit if you

477
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 1: have super low testosterone, So then you will listen, you

478
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:37,720
Speaker 1: will triple mask, you will get shots. Eight nine ten,

479
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:42,199
Speaker 1: maybe fifteen. That's the best shot you can get for

480
00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:46,399
Speaker 1: the RONA for the COVID. You don't want that. You

481
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:50,120
Speaker 1: want to have energy, endurance, focus and drive that'll get

482
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:53,560
Speaker 1: you through every day. So tell Faucie of the world

483
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:57,160
Speaker 1: to stuff it and boost your testosterone with my friends

484
00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:00,359
Speaker 1: at Chalk because you know, testosterone in the average guys

485
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:03,000
Speaker 1: country is down about fifty percent of the last fifty years.

486
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:05,679
Speaker 1: Grip strength is down. This is real stuff. It is

487
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:10,040
Speaker 1: really concerning because while they're constantly encouraging men to be

488
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 1: more docile, don't be toxic and masculine, got a lot

489
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:16,120
Speaker 1: of guys that are feeling like, hold on a second,

490
00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 1: I'm being undermined. They want me to just do as

491
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:21,800
Speaker 1: I'm told and be a part of the apparatus and

492
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:24,560
Speaker 1: not actually feel like I have drive to get through

493
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:28,560
Speaker 1: every day. That's what testosterone and Chalk supplements can do

494

508
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 1: right now. One thing that is a constant, as you

509
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:26,280
Speaker 1: all know that the Democrat corporate media lies to you

510
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:31,240
Speaker 1: all the time, constantly pushing an agenda. Journalism as a

511
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:36,080
Speaker 1: profession is something that people don't view the same way

512
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,360
Speaker 1: they used to. And that's a good thing because it

513
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:42,880
Speaker 1: really is worrying propaganda machines out there. They're pushing agendas.

514
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:45,480
Speaker 1: They aren't bringing you just facts. You all know that.

515
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:51,360
Speaker 1: And I actually saw today that the most regretted above

516
00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:57,960
Speaker 1: even gender studies and sociology and communications. There was some

517
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 1: up pull that was circulating some ada out there this

518
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:06,760
Speaker 1: morning that the most regretted major was journalism, because you

519
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:11,800
Speaker 1: know what journalism is, reading and writing and communicating. You're

520
00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 1: not getting a leg up on everybody else by studying

521
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,640
Speaker 1: journalism in school. In fact, I even know people who

522
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:20,880
Speaker 1: have taught at top j schools, journalism schools, and they

523
00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:23,160
Speaker 1: will tell people quietly, it's a waste of time and money.

524
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:26,880
Speaker 1: Don't do it. But the journals, Clay, are relentless. They

525
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:31,200
Speaker 1: are true believers in their First of all, they're this

526
00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 1: really noxious combination of incredibly arrogant and condescending but also

527
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:40,520
Speaker 1: deeply insecure and aware of the fact that they're all

528
00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 1: very replaceable. So it's it's a difficult personality type to handle,

529
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:48,800
Speaker 1: to manage. But we have yet another instance of the

530
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:52,320
Speaker 1: fake news, great term that President Trump gave us, the

531
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 1: fake news, showing us what they're really all about. NBC

532
00:30:55,800 --> 00:31:01,480
Speaker 1: News reporter Miguel al McGuire, I think that's right, was

533
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:08,320
Speaker 1: suspended over his now retracted Paul Pelosi story. So he reported,

534
00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 1: if we all remember, remember the Paul Pelosi story that

535
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 1: got so much attention, God was attacked. It was a

536
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:17,080
Speaker 1: vicious attack. But people were asking some questions, as I said, Clay,

537
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 1: just on a security basis, how does this guy just

538
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:22,640
Speaker 1: walk into the home of I mean, I would assume

539
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,160
Speaker 1: the Capitol police had cameras. They were there, they were

540
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,600
Speaker 1: asleep at the wheel, not not ask any questions. Though

541
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 1: it was a right wing Trump supporter. They said that

542
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:33,720
Speaker 1: it's I mean, which this guy's just clearly completely out

543
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:40,680
Speaker 1: of his mind. But so Miguel Almaguerre reported that Nancy

544
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,280
Speaker 1: Pelosi's husband Paul, didn't let on that he was in

545
00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:46,320
Speaker 1: danger when the police were at his home right away,

546
00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 1: and so there were some questions about this, and Clay,

547
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:53,760
Speaker 1: this is early stage reporting. I mean, think about all

548
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:57,760
Speaker 1: the reporting on something far more serious and horrific than this,

549
00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:02,720
Speaker 1: like this shooting at Yuvaldear. So much reporting that was

550
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:08,560
Speaker 1: completely wrong. Now in this case, al McGuire, it's not

551
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:11,959
Speaker 1: believed he didn't fabricate it. This is just what was

552
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 1: reported to him by law enforcement sources, I would assume

553
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:18,640
Speaker 1: at the time. And they are suspending it. I mean,

554
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:20,480
Speaker 1: he is getting and this is now public, he's getting

555
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:23,080
Speaker 1: an official punishment for this, and we I'll sit here

556
00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 1: and go Okay, So you upset the Libs, you upset

557
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,960
Speaker 1: the Democrat narrative in some way, Clay, or make things

558
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:33,000
Speaker 1: even more difficult for a news cycle for them, and

559
00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:36,960
Speaker 1: there are professional consequences. But you lie about Russia collusion

560
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:40,000
Speaker 1: for four years, you get a pulitzer. That's where we are, okay,

561
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,640
Speaker 1: And I would just point out they could easily have

562
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:48,040
Speaker 1: eliminated all of this uncertainty by releasing some of the

563
00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 1: bodycam footage. The police officers have bodycams on them if

564
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:56,320
Speaker 1: they wanted to get the full story out there, They

565
00:32:56,360 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 1: have the charges that they have brought against this guy,

566
00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:01,960
Speaker 1: and at some point they could have just released the

567
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,800
Speaker 1: bodycam footage. How often do you see bodycam footage out

568
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:09,960
Speaker 1: there from police in tumultuous, controversial cases all the time.

569
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 1: And your point on Uvalda is a great one. Everything

570
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:18,640
Speaker 1: that we were told initially on the Uvalda school shooting

571
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:23,800
Speaker 1: ended up being a lie. Everything just about and so

572
00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:27,400
Speaker 1: every reporter got it wrong because they were lied to.

573
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 1: It's really really amazing. I mean, this was a Today

574
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:35,600
Speaker 1: Show report that they pulled off of the NBC website

575
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 1: that they took completely down, and now they are castigating

576
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:44,479
Speaker 1: and chastising this reporter because he said something. We still

577
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:47,680
Speaker 1: don't know one hundred percent what the story is here

578
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:49,600
Speaker 1: because we haven't seen the full footage or the full

579
00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:53,959
Speaker 1: details come out. They just he said something that upset

580
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:57,000
Speaker 1: the Democrat Party and as a result, NBC News the same.

581
00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 1: We can't have this. Have you heard? It's just a

582
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:02,640
Speaker 1: good question for everybody out there. Have you heard of

583
00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 1: any journalist at NBCCBS, ABC, Washington Post, New York Times,

584
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:15,480
Speaker 1: MSNBCCNN have any journalist been suspended for any Russia collusion

585
00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:17,520
Speaker 1: report at all? You mentioned this, but I mean just one.

586
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,920
Speaker 1: I haven't seen it publicly that anybody has been suspended

587
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:29,120
Speaker 1: themselves awards for fake legitimate fake news. And I just

588
00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:31,760
Speaker 1: think this is instructive. I mean, it's all about the nave,

589
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:33,799
Speaker 1: the fact service of the narrative. We all know it.

590
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 1: It's very obvious. We have to keep hammering it, though,

591
00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:40,880
Speaker 1: because you should not ever lull yourself into thinking or

592
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:44,279
Speaker 1: allow yourself to think. Well, maybe the journals are going

593
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:46,680
Speaker 1: back towards the center, and you know they've realized the

594
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:48,239
Speaker 1: air of their ways. Are you kidding me? I mean,

595
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:53,560
Speaker 1: President Trump is likely announcing his run for the presidency tonight, right,

596
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,920
Speaker 1: a TB president for four more years. I've been saying this,

597
00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,400
Speaker 1: as you know, Clay and every listening for quite some time,

598
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,200
Speaker 1: the media is just waiting for this, and then all

599
00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 1: the anti Trump machinery kicks right back into place. CNN's

600
00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:09,480
Speaker 1: talking about the insurrection twenty four to seven. I mean,

601
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:12,800
Speaker 1: this is what many of them think they need really

602
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:15,920
Speaker 1: for for ratings. So it's not like they've actually decided

603
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:18,279
Speaker 1: that what they did in the past was partisan, dishonest

604
00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:21,720
Speaker 1: and wrong. But I will say, on the upside of things,

605
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:26,760
Speaker 1: you do have this Elon Musk takeover of Twitter still

606
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:29,000
Speaker 1: playing out. There's a couple of bugs, you know, there's

607
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:32,640
Speaker 1: a couple of little issues here and there, just as

608
00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:34,560
Speaker 1: the site goes, because Clay and I are both very

609
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:38,879
Speaker 1: active on it, and this may mean that we will

610
00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:41,719
Speaker 1: have a site that has true free speech and real

611
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,799
Speaker 1: free speech implications going into the next election cycle that

612
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,680
Speaker 1: we really didn't in this last one. And everyone I know,

613
00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:50,120
Speaker 1: I'm sure you've seen the same thing. Clay, all of

614
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:53,680
Speaker 1: a sudden, all these conservatives, you know, your engagements up

615
00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:57,120
Speaker 1: fifty percent, your follower accounts going up more than it has.

616
00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,520
Speaker 1: Everything that we said about how they were throttling, and

617
00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:02,640
Speaker 1: it's all true. They were doing all kinds of shenanigans

618
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:06,120
Speaker 1: behind the scenes. A Twitter the psycho woke libs were

619
00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:08,480
Speaker 1: playing every game they could to help their side and

620
00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:09,960
Speaker 1: make it all seem like it was on the up

621
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,520
Speaker 1: and up. It's a free exchange of idea site, but

622
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:16,280
Speaker 1: this is pretty amazing. Elon tweeted out this was actually

623
00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:20,200
Speaker 1: on November thirteenth. I'd like to apologize for Twitter being

624
00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:24,719
Speaker 1: super slow in many countries. App is doing over a

625
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:28,719
Speaker 1: thousand poorly batch rpcs just to render a home timeline. Now.

626
00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:32,600
Speaker 1: To be fair, I have no idea what that means. Yeah,

627
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:34,359
Speaker 1: I mean like I'm not pretending to all about any

628
00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:36,520
Speaker 1: of this stuff. I mean I sometimes Kerry has to

629
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:38,960
Speaker 1: help me, like switch from the smart TV to the

630
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:41,000
Speaker 1: old TV. You know, I'm not great at this stuff.

631
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:42,839
Speaker 1: People like you were in the CIA. I'm like, yeah,

632
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:44,440
Speaker 1: we had smart people who did that stuff in the

633
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:50,920
Speaker 1: CIA too. This guy, though, Eric Fraunoffer, responds to Elon Musk,

634
00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:54,240
Speaker 1: who is his boss, apparently a Twitter I have spent

635
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:56,719
Speaker 1: six years working on Twitter for Android and can say

636
00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:59,800
Speaker 1: this is wrong, gets one hundred and two thousand likes.

637
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:04,320
Speaker 1: And then some guy who goes by the Moniker money

638
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:07,960
Speaker 1: nerd techie, well, I think probably does know about this stuff.

639
00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:10,400
Speaker 1: I have been a developer for twenty years, and I

640
00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:12,319
Speaker 1: can tell you, as the domain expert here, you should

641
00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:15,719
Speaker 1: inform your boss privately. Trying to one up him in

642
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:18,479
Speaker 1: public while he's trying to learn and be helpful makes

643
00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:21,640
Speaker 1: you look like a spiteful, self serving dev for developer,

644
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:26,040
Speaker 1: mister Eric Fronifer writes, maybe he should ask questions privately,

645
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:30,160
Speaker 1: maybe using slacker email, and then Elon just tweets in

646
00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:36,279
Speaker 1: he's fired, and he is. It turns out messing with

647
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:38,239
Speaker 1: the richest man in the world who is also your

648
00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:42,080
Speaker 1: boss and the new CEO of your company is a

649
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:47,200
Speaker 1: bad idea. Wokesters, I love this. Let me also just

650
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:49,799
Speaker 1: I said this on Fox News earlier today because we

651
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:54,320
Speaker 1: were talking about this story a little bit. You cannot

652
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:57,920
Speaker 1: believe that Elon Musk is going to have success at Twitter.

653
00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:00,239
Speaker 1: But there are a lot of blue che x and

654
00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:03,880
Speaker 1: running around like, Oh, Elon Musk doesn't understand Twitter. He

655
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:07,120
Speaker 1: has no hope. This guy is better at spending at

656
00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:12,120
Speaker 1: sending rocket ships to space than NASA is, and he

657
00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:17,719
Speaker 1: totally remade the way that we power cars. Both of

658
00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:21,160
Speaker 1: those things. If you told me right now, Buck, like

659
00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:24,719
Speaker 1: twenty years ago, Hey, I think I can send rockets

660
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:28,600
Speaker 1: to space better than NASA, cheaper, more efficiently, and I

661
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:32,080
Speaker 1: can return them. Most people would say that's a that's

662
00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:35,440
Speaker 1: a really tall order. And if you also said, simultaneously

663
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:39,920
Speaker 1: and while I'm doing that, I'm going to redesign cars

664
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:42,759
Speaker 1: so that we don't have to rely on gas, and

665
00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:45,040
Speaker 1: I'm going to electric power them and all these other things,

666
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:47,279
Speaker 1: a lot of people would say that's really difficult to

667
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:52,120
Speaker 1: do figuring out a social media app and configuring it

668
00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:56,640
Speaker 1: and analyzing it. And compared to that, compared to sending

669
00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:59,800
Speaker 1: space rocket ships to space better than NASA and designing

670
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:03,319
Speaker 1: ours without the combustion engine, this is not very complicated.

671
00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:07,000
Speaker 1: So I'm not sure whether the business of Twitter is

672
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:09,600
Speaker 1: going to be a success, because I think there's certainly

673
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:12,640
Speaker 1: bet you can place on that. But the idea that

674
00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:15,560
Speaker 1: Elon Musk is not going to be able to understand

675
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:20,120
Speaker 1: the mechanics of Twitter, which this little software engineer, developer,

676
00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:23,080
Speaker 1: whoever he was, was sniping at Elon Musk. This is

677
00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:25,359
Speaker 1: one of the most brilliant people on the planet, and

678
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:30,760
Speaker 1: he's already succeeded in literal rocket ship making and also

679
00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:34,520
Speaker 1: now in the car business by redesigning the combustion engine

680
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:36,600
Speaker 1: I think he's probably gonna be able to handle Twitter.

681
00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:38,759
Speaker 1: I'm just placing my bet down on this guy can

682
00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:41,080
Speaker 1: figure it out. I'm just also, you know, I don't

683
00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:43,680
Speaker 1: do the hero worship thing, but I do live in reality,

684
00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:46,120
Speaker 1: and I think when someone is the richest man on

685
00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:48,839
Speaker 1: the planet because they've done the things that you've laid

686
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:52,360
Speaker 1: out there, like maybe show a little respect, you know

687
00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:55,680
Speaker 1: what I mean, Maybe I'll be like, oh, mister idiot,

688
00:39:55,680 --> 00:40:00,120
Speaker 1: Elon doesn't know anything about the back end machinations of

689
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:02,080
Speaker 1: the I can't. I don't even know what you call

690
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:05,400
Speaker 1: this thing the software. Once you start getting into computer science,

691
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:07,680
Speaker 1: I mean, it is a totally might as well be

692
00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:10,239
Speaker 1: speaking Mandarin. I have no idea what's going on. I'm

693
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:12,319
Speaker 1: like you in terms of tech. I mean, I run

694
00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:15,919
Speaker 1: a media company, and we've got a lot of tech

695
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:19,319
Speaker 1: obviously involved in that media company. I mean, when I

696
00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:21,840
Speaker 1: want to watch Thursday night football on Amazon, I have

697
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:24,200
Speaker 1: to call in my wife or my kids to figure

698
00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:26,600
Speaker 1: out how to get on Amazon streaming as opposed to

699
00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:29,760
Speaker 1: a traditional cable. Like I hate trying to find sporting

700
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:33,480
Speaker 1: events now on my television because they're streamed so many

701
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:35,839
Speaker 1: different ways. But you know, I still think. I'm gonna

702
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:37,359
Speaker 1: tell you this now, I think I'm gonna be able

703
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:39,680
Speaker 1: to beat my kids one day in video games. I

704
00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:43,480
Speaker 1: feel like old school Nintendo got us very primed for this.

705
00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:48,000
Speaker 1: I see everything native sorely mistaken. I think like FIFA

706
00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:50,799
Speaker 1: twenty thirty five is going to come out on PlayStation

707
00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:53,080
Speaker 1: nineteen or whatever, and I'm gonna I'm gonna be schooling

708
00:40:53,120 --> 00:40:55,239
Speaker 1: my kids. I think that, you know, the gap is

709
00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:56,880
Speaker 1: not as big as people. I will say. They have

710
00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:59,400
Speaker 1: gotten me to play Fortnite against them. They've gotten me

711
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:02,520
Speaker 1: to try to do the Minecraft building And I grew

712
00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:05,120
Speaker 1: up on the h I grew up on video games. Now,

713
00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:08,799
Speaker 1: you may have played video games longer than me, right,

714
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:13,600
Speaker 1: because when I started having kids, like, they got years

715
00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:16,360
Speaker 1: of advantage on me. Like they used something called the

716
00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:18,960
Speaker 1: pinball machine. That was the that was the state of

717
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:20,959
Speaker 1: the art, you know, when Clay was coming up the rigs.

718
00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:23,120
Speaker 1: I'm really I could beat them in tech Mobowl. You

719
00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:24,560
Speaker 1: know you want to play tech Mobowl, you want to

720
00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:27,759
Speaker 1: play RBI Baseball, you want to play uh, you want

721
00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:30,759
Speaker 1: to play the old school Ninintendo eight bit games. I'll

722
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:34,120
Speaker 1: wreck these kids. But but when it comes to the

723
00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:38,440
Speaker 1: modern Day Madden. Uh they let Dad have it pretty bad. Yeah,

724
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:40,280
Speaker 1: well there you have. So I'm just I'm just saying

725
00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:44,200
Speaker 1: that your prediction may may actually be if somebody, if somebody,

726
00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:46,600
Speaker 1: if somebody gun to your head says greatest for you

727
00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:49,200
Speaker 1: at the time, greatest video game that you ever played?

728
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:52,239
Speaker 1: What would it be? Techmo super Bowl? Greatest video game

729
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:55,520
Speaker 1: ever created? Um? First one with eleven players? Like, it's

730
00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:58,799
Speaker 1: the best game ever? What about jid Meyer's Original Civilization

731
00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:03,080
Speaker 1: for me? Even though that a computer game, Yes, very

732
00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:07,919
Speaker 1: nerdive A best ever was a computer game. It was amazing. Yeah.

733
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:09,799
Speaker 1: I used to play as Montezuma and then just end

734
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:15,319
Speaker 1: up knuking everybody. It was phenomenal. Blades of Steel, Baseball Stars,

735
00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:20,600
Speaker 1: RBI Baseball, um, the original Techmobowl. All of those would

736
00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:23,400
Speaker 1: be in my contra back in the day. Remember I

737
00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:25,879
Speaker 1: loved the Contributo game. I also on N sixty four.

738
00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:29,400
Speaker 1: I remember the Golden Eye video game multiplayer? Oh, everybody played.

739
00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:32,920
Speaker 1: That was revolutionary in its time. And Mario Card. There

740
00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:36,080
Speaker 1: were some people who would imbibe illegal substances and play

741
00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:41,279
Speaker 1: the Mario Card. You say, Mario, isn't it Mario? You say,

742
00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:44,560
Speaker 1: Mario Super Mario. Just you might have just caught me

743
00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,160
Speaker 1: be doing the weird I might have just pulled the

744
00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:51,000
Speaker 1: clay there with my pronunciation. Just isn't it super Mario brothers?

745
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:53,120
Speaker 1: You would say super Mario brothers? Is that the way

746
00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:55,520
Speaker 1: I think it's? I think you're right. I think it's Mario,

747
00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:58,000
Speaker 1: like it's Mario and Luigi. Right, is it Mario or

748
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:01,960
Speaker 1: Mario Lopez? For EXAMPLEO Lopez? Yeah, so it's it's Mario.

749
00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:05,360
Speaker 1: I think I don't know. Now you guys called me

750
00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:08,319
Speaker 1: mister mister Nevada. You just called me. All right, there

751
00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:11,640
Speaker 1: you go, Nevada. I got it right. You've turned it up.

752
00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:14,440
Speaker 1: People have noticed too. Our Nevada listeners are like, thank you.

753
00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:17,960
Speaker 1: Clay didn't help, though, And although I guess Lombardo got

754
00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:19,480
Speaker 1: the wind, I would have liked to have been able

755
00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:24,399
Speaker 1: to celebrate two winds. Laxalt is officially conceded, by the way, unfortunately,

756
00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:30,200
Speaker 1: and so as we break these things down, you gotta

757
00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:33,000
Speaker 1: hit us with the read here began absolutely rising inflation,

758
00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 1: a volatle stock market, reaking havoc on retirement accounts. Until

759
00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:39,800
Speaker 1: all of US economic uncertainty turns around, Phoenix Capital groups

760
00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:44,520
Speaker 1: suggest you diversify your investments. They're introducing investors to high

761
00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:47,680
Speaker 1: value oil and gas here in the US with current

762
00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:51,279
Speaker 1: yields from eight to eleven percent APY paid monthly. These

763
00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:53,680
Speaker 1: are corporate bond offerings and they're open to both accredited

764
00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:56,400
Speaker 1: and non accredited investors. I'm gonna give you the website

765
00:43:56,440 --> 00:43:58,839
Speaker 1: for this in a second, but keep in mind, an

766
00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:01,600
Speaker 1: investment in bonds has an amount of risk associated with it,

767
00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:03,640

Speaker 1: It's really easy. The number is three two three Phoenix.

775
00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:34,480
Speaker 1: That's three two three pH Oe n i X. Welcome back,

776
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:37,480
Speaker 1: Ed Klay, Travis Buck Sexton, show Buck. You mentioned this

777
00:44:37,520 --> 00:44:39,400
Speaker 1: in the open. I want to make sure I remember

778
00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:42,320
Speaker 1: to hit it so there. Yesterday was a front page

779
00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:44,960
Speaker 1: story in the New York Times about the dangers of

780
00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:51,520
Speaker 1: transgender surgeries for miners and also puberty blockers, and it's

781
00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:55,360
Speaker 1: a fascinating story that they finally acknowledged is a real issue.

782
00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:59,000
Speaker 1: And it's a, you know, several thousand words story. But

783
00:44:59,120 --> 00:45:01,200
Speaker 1: what I thought was in triguing was and we made

784
00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:04,680
Speaker 1: these analogies before. And I wonder whether there's somebody like

785
00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:06,960
Speaker 1: who's kind of a mole inside of The New York

786
00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:09,480
Speaker 1: Times that thought to do this in the print edition. Yes,

787
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:12,160
Speaker 1: I'm an old man. I read the print newspaper. When

788
00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:17,200
Speaker 1: you finished that article about the transgender the surgeries, and

789
00:45:17,280 --> 00:45:20,279
Speaker 1: also the puberty blockers. There was an article about a

790
00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:23,400
Speaker 1: ten year old who got a tattoo. And in that

791
00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:25,560
Speaker 1: article about a ten year old who got a tattoo,

792
00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:29,320
Speaker 1: they quoted several experts as saying, how in the world

793
00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:32,200
Speaker 1: could any parent let their ten year old get a tattoo?

794
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:36,080
Speaker 1: Kids who are that young don't have the ability to

795
00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:41,640
Speaker 1: make life altering decisions. I'm paraphrasing. Yet there were many

796
00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:46,239
Speaker 1: experts in the article about the puberty blockers saying, well,

797
00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:48,160
Speaker 1: if a twelve year old decides they don't want to

798
00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:50,480
Speaker 1: go into puberty, we should definitely do it. And the

799
00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:54,719
Speaker 1: overriding story year buck was that when you get puberty blockers,

800
00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:59,399
Speaker 1: your bones don't develop like they normally would, and many

801
00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:04,200
Speaker 1: of these kids are facing osteoporosis issues where their bones

802
00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:08,840
Speaker 1: are brittle because puberty is when many kids, I didn't

803
00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:12,400
Speaker 1: know this, but your bones strengthened to a large degree

804
00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:15,600
Speaker 1: to support you being able to handle an adult body.

805
00:46:15,880 --> 00:46:18,680
Speaker 1: And many of these kids getting puberty blockers are having

806
00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:21,960
Speaker 1: issues with their bone strength in addition to all the

807
00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:25,600
Speaker 1: issues that might arise obviously from changing your gender while

808
00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:28,840
Speaker 1: you're still under eighteen years old. So there's something you

809
00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:33,360
Speaker 1: know called body integrity identity disorder, which is when somebody

810
00:46:33,800 --> 00:46:36,759
Speaker 1: wants to amputate a healthy limb. This is a real

811
00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:41,160
Speaker 1: psychological condition. I believe it is still in the DSM.

812
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:46,120
Speaker 1: I think it is still something that the medical community,

813
00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:51,239
Speaker 1: psychiatric medical community will will talk about. There was a

814
00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:55,680
Speaker 1: story place as for discussing this yesterday in on Vice,

815
00:46:55,760 --> 00:46:58,799
Speaker 1: which is a very left wing so called news organizations

816
00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:03,120
Speaker 1: like a left wing blog. Trans people are seeking non

817
00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:06,960
Speaker 1: binary bottom surgeries. Let's talk about that. We come back,

818
00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:10,040

841
00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:21,640
Speaker 1: to bring you up to speed on first foremost one

842
00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:26,960
Speaker 1: is that Kevin McCarthy, This is reported by my friend

843
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:31,800
Speaker 1: Henry Rodgers from a Daily Caller, has won the GOP

844
00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:36,080
Speaker 1: nomination at this stage for speaker in a one hundred

845
00:48:36,160 --> 00:48:40,480
Speaker 1: and eighty eight to thirty one vote and McCarthy will

846
00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:42,760
Speaker 1: according to Henry here, have a lot to do, still

847
00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:45,280
Speaker 1: needs two hundred and eighteen supporters to win the floor

848
00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:49,479
Speaker 1: vote on January third, but it is looking like Kevin

849
00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:54,120
Speaker 1: McCarthy will be Speaker of the House. Another news item,

850
00:48:54,360 --> 00:48:56,719
Speaker 1: perhaps just more of a follow up to our discussion

851
00:48:56,800 --> 00:49:03,600
Speaker 1: yesterday on the situation in Ukraine, A senior US intelligence official,

852
00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:08,239
Speaker 1: according to the the Associated Press, has confirmed that Russian missiles

853
00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:12,560
Speaker 1: crossed into Poland, a NATO member, and killed two people.

854
00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:17,680
Speaker 1: As in there was there were Russian missiles fired into Poland.

855
00:49:17,760 --> 00:49:22,400
Speaker 1: I think people would assume that this was, you know,

856
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:25,960
Speaker 1: they were off target. Essentially, this was accidental and a

857
00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:29,600
Speaker 1: collateral damage issue assume. I'm not sure that's the case,

858
00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:33,279
Speaker 1: but when you have two Polish nationals killed on their

859
00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:36,160
Speaker 1: own territory and it's a NATO country, I would just

860
00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:41,920
Speaker 1: note as Russia is losing, Russia will get more desperate

861
00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:44,640
Speaker 1: and trying to come up with a way to off

862
00:49:44,760 --> 00:49:48,080
Speaker 1: ramp all of this violence as soon as possible and

863
00:49:48,239 --> 00:49:51,799
Speaker 1: end this conflict. I think should be certainly the goal

864
00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:55,040
Speaker 1: for the US. I can't speak for Ukraine and the

865
00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:58,560
Speaker 1: sentiments over there, but Clay I raised this issue before,

866
00:49:59,280 --> 00:50:02,279
Speaker 1: or this this concept before we went into the break there,

867
00:50:02,320 --> 00:50:05,120
Speaker 1: and I wanted to address it with everybody now because

868
00:50:05,120 --> 00:50:09,760
Speaker 1: while there was much discussion before the midterm election about

869
00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:13,520
Speaker 1: issues like transcender indoctrination in schools, which they still want

870
00:50:13,520 --> 00:50:18,000
Speaker 1: to do, and Drag Queen, not just Drag Queen Story Hour,

871
00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:21,319
Speaker 1: but these kind of drag Queen strip shows in front

872
00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:23,520
Speaker 1: of small children, you know, the dancing up on the

873
00:50:23,560 --> 00:50:26,600
Speaker 1: polls or whatever. All this stuff that goes on. It's weird,

874
00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:30,080
Speaker 1: it's inappropriate. We all know this, well, not everybody, but

875
00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:34,200
Speaker 1: everyone listening to this knows that. And this was new.

876
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:37,319
Speaker 1: I had never heard of this before, and now I

877
00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:40,160
Speaker 1: want to point out this is reported on in Vice,

878
00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:47,640
Speaker 1: which is it's essentially like the place for very far

879
00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:52,200
Speaker 1: left wing hipsters with you know, this is like a

880
00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:54,279
Speaker 1: very far left wing website. I'll put it you that way.

881
00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:57,839
Speaker 1: A lot of a lot of nose rings and blue

882
00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:02,080
Speaker 1: hair and you know, Black Lives Matter and announcing pronouns

883
00:51:02,160 --> 00:51:06,040
Speaker 1: and get your six vacshots. That's kind of the vice vibe.

884
00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:09,560
Speaker 1: So it's they're reporting on this. Trans people are seeking

885
00:51:09,640 --> 00:51:14,000
Speaker 1: non binary bottom surgeries. Is the story here across the

886
00:51:14,080 --> 00:51:19,200
Speaker 1: gender spectrum. I'm quoting everybody. Some patients are looking for

887
00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:25,320
Speaker 1: mixed sets of genitals or none at all, and actually

888
00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:29,120
Speaker 1: receiving this affirming care isn't easy. Okay, a couple of

889
00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:31,560
Speaker 1: things here, Clay, before I let you let you get

890
00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:34,600
Speaker 1: into this situation. First of all, you can tell by

891
00:51:34,640 --> 00:51:37,840
Speaker 1: the subhead here, the subheadline that the problem here is,

892
00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:41,160
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, we're not letting people easily get mixed

893
00:51:41,239 --> 00:51:44,839
Speaker 1: genital sets or no genital sets. I want to be clear.

894
00:51:45,080 --> 00:51:48,160
Speaker 1: In this article they go into there are now transgender

895
00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:54,040
Speaker 1: self identified individuals who want surgery to have both a

896
00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:58,280
Speaker 1: penis and a vaginas simultaneously because that is their gender

897
00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:03,120
Speaker 1: identity journey. Me or I'm not even sure which is.

898
00:52:03,320 --> 00:52:05,279
Speaker 1: I mean this. I think this is probably the more

899
00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:11,880
Speaker 1: strange one to have all genitalia removed entirely and have

900
00:52:12,120 --> 00:52:18,160
Speaker 1: only you know, a urinary tract effectively in that area.

901
00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:22,040
Speaker 1: This is a thing that is happening, and some doctors

902
00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:24,560
Speaker 1: are being told by their patients that this is the

903
00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:28,560
Speaker 1: surgery that they want. Would I would wonder within the

904
00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:33,239
Speaker 1: trans left wing activist community, on what basis this is

905
00:52:33,280 --> 00:52:35,839
Speaker 1: their truth? On what basis will they tell them they

906
00:52:35,840 --> 00:52:41,200
Speaker 1: can't do this? Yeah, this is all crazy. And my

907
00:52:41,360 --> 00:52:45,400
Speaker 1: general belief is if you're over eighteen years old and

908
00:52:45,560 --> 00:52:50,520
Speaker 1: you want to make crazy choices for yourself, you can

909
00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:53,279
Speaker 1: do it. I think it's unlikely to lead to you

910
00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:57,440
Speaker 1: being happier. I think many of these people are psychologically

911
00:52:57,520 --> 00:53:00,520
Speaker 1: broken and they feel like they need to take gray

912
00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:03,239
Speaker 1: the action in order to make themselves happy. And I

913
00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:08,640
Speaker 1: suspect very often after all these surgeries, they think, oh,

914
00:53:08,680 --> 00:53:10,759
Speaker 1: if I just did this, I would be happy if

915
00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:13,600
Speaker 1: I just felt and then they aren't right. But this

916
00:53:13,680 --> 00:53:17,920
Speaker 1: is next level crazy. This is just at some point

917
00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:23,440
Speaker 1: there is a difference between I mean the analogy on Halloween,

918
00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:27,040
Speaker 1: which is if your kid dresses up like a cowboys

919
00:53:27,040 --> 00:53:31,200
Speaker 1: and Indians, then it's totally unacceptable. But if an adult

920
00:53:31,239 --> 00:53:34,560
Speaker 1: decides that they want to change their gender and they

921
00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:38,200
Speaker 1: demand that you use the pronouns of their choice, it's permissible.

922
00:53:38,239 --> 00:53:40,880
Speaker 1: The line I think Matt Walsh added in his in

923
00:53:41,040 --> 00:53:43,600
Speaker 1: his what is a Woman? Piece, which I thought was

924
00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:46,279
Speaker 1: really good, is you don't get to pick your adjectives, right,

925
00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:48,560
Speaker 1: so take away the pronoun thing like I'm going to

926
00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:51,799
Speaker 1: share my pronouns with you or whatever else. But I

927
00:53:51,840 --> 00:53:53,600
Speaker 1: don't get to say, you can only refer to me

928
00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:56,240
Speaker 1: as handsome, you can only refer to me as brilliant,

929
00:53:56,320 --> 00:54:00,640
Speaker 1: you can only refer to me as a genius. Like you.

930
00:54:00,880 --> 00:54:03,799
Speaker 1: Everybody out there can make their own determinations about how

931
00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:07,120
Speaker 1: you see me or you or anyone else. This idea

932
00:54:07,160 --> 00:54:12,399
Speaker 1: that you can demand your pronouns is crazy. And I

933
00:54:12,480 --> 00:54:16,680
Speaker 1: don't know where the trans agenda goes, but it feels

934
00:54:16,800 --> 00:54:21,200
Speaker 1: like many people increasingly are saying, Hey, you wanted to

935
00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:23,640
Speaker 1: change your gender or whatever, but you've you've gone off

936
00:54:23,640 --> 00:54:26,279
Speaker 1: the crazy training. So what would be fascinating to me?

937
00:54:26,320 --> 00:54:29,120
Speaker 1: And remember, we can call this and I do think

938
00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:31,080
Speaker 1: this is mental illness. I'm not a doctor, but I

939
00:54:31,239 --> 00:54:34,239
Speaker 1: would I would make the argument as a layperson that

940
00:54:34,239 --> 00:54:38,640
Speaker 1: that's what's going on here, that Clay what we it

941
00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:41,279
Speaker 1: keeps getting crazier and they don't stop. I think we

942
00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:43,800
Speaker 1: need to be very cognizant of that, meaning that the

943
00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:47,759
Speaker 1: more you know it was oh, just use my pronouns,

944
00:54:48,040 --> 00:54:50,960
Speaker 1: and now it's oh, I get to compete against the

945
00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:53,600
Speaker 1: opposite gender and use their locker rooms, or else you're

946
00:54:53,640 --> 00:54:55,799
Speaker 1: a bigot. And by the administration, by the way, may

947
00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:58,840
Speaker 1: go back to giving Title nine protection the transgender athletes,

948
00:54:58,880 --> 00:55:01,319
Speaker 1: which means the whole thing and is just a free

949
00:55:01,320 --> 00:55:03,400
Speaker 1: for all for anybody who wants to compete against other gender.

950
00:55:03,560 --> 00:55:05,960
Speaker 1: You have people demanding that they are put in a

951
00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:08,160
Speaker 1: woman's prison, even if they're a man with a penis.

952
00:55:08,239 --> 00:55:09,759
Speaker 1: They just say, I'm a woman, so put me in

953
00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:13,239
Speaker 1: the woman's prison. It keeps getting crazier. This is the

954
00:55:13,360 --> 00:55:16,960
Speaker 1: nature of this movement, of this situation. It never stops.

955
00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:19,959
Speaker 1: And this is oh and I would say the most

956
00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:24,120
Speaker 1: recent manifestation we have seen is the we gotta get

957
00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:26,440
Speaker 1: the kids to do this. We gotta get twelve year

958
00:55:26,480 --> 00:55:28,719
Speaker 1: olds to take the Cubert. You know. That's the that's

959
00:55:28,920 --> 00:55:32,520
Speaker 1: and now a level beyond that is individuals who are saying,

960
00:55:33,120 --> 00:55:37,160
Speaker 1: I want to have no genitalia. I have a right

961
00:55:37,239 --> 00:55:39,840
Speaker 1: to have a medical profession. Remember this is a serious

962
00:55:39,880 --> 00:55:41,600
Speaker 1: surgery with all kinds of calm. I mean, you're not

963
00:55:41,640 --> 00:55:43,960
Speaker 1: you know, this is this is not growing your hair

964
00:55:43,960 --> 00:55:45,759
Speaker 1: out and putting on lipstick. I mean, this is something

965
00:55:45,760 --> 00:55:48,160
Speaker 1: you got to be put on general anesthesia, you got

966
00:55:48,160 --> 00:55:50,600
Speaker 1: to have a surgeon, all this stuff. They want doctors

967
00:55:50,640 --> 00:55:53,799
Speaker 1: to remove all genitals. So sort of like you know

968
00:55:53,880 --> 00:55:57,200
Speaker 1: kenn and Barbie Doll situation here, that is what they

969
00:55:57,239 --> 00:56:00,439
Speaker 1: are demanding. And what's fascinating that they're gonna put back

970
00:56:00,640 --> 00:56:04,840
Speaker 1: from within the trans community, according to this article, for

971
00:56:05,040 --> 00:56:09,160
Speaker 1: making it seem too crazy. That's what's so interesting. So

972
00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:11,759
Speaker 1: finally wokeness has now turned on wokeness and they're trying

973
00:56:11,760 --> 00:56:13,959
Speaker 1: to figure out can we make this next step happen.

974
00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:16,200
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you something. They're gonna keep pushing this.

975
00:56:16,560 --> 00:56:18,000
Speaker 1: You know what they tried for a little There are

976
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:19,480
Speaker 1: a couple of articles. One thing they tried for a

977
00:56:19,520 --> 00:56:22,920
Speaker 1: little while is you are a bigot if you're a

978
00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:25,680
Speaker 1: man who is not attracted to a trans female because

979
00:56:25,680 --> 00:56:28,239
Speaker 1: trans women or women, you're a biggot. They actually, like

980
00:56:28,280 --> 00:56:30,920
Speaker 1: Huffington Post, had some articles about this that didn't work.

981
00:56:31,600 --> 00:56:33,480
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna try this one next, which is

982
00:56:33,480 --> 00:56:35,520
Speaker 1: that hey, if you want to have both sets, so

983
00:56:35,600 --> 00:56:39,640
Speaker 1: to speak, it's fine. It's fine. And by the way,

984
00:56:39,840 --> 00:56:44,120
Speaker 1: Joe Biden will have some influencer to the White House

985
00:56:44,760 --> 00:56:46,719
Speaker 1: and they'll say, oh, God, bless you. You know you

986
00:56:46,800 --> 00:56:50,800
Speaker 1: got the two sets. He's fine with this. The White

987
00:56:50,800 --> 00:56:56,080
Speaker 1: House goes along with all of this. I just don't

988
00:56:56,200 --> 00:56:59,560
Speaker 1: know where we go from here. I almost, by the way,

989
00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:02,319
Speaker 1: Clay almost flabbergasted with this one, which I've almost never seen.

990
00:57:02,440 --> 00:57:04,960
Speaker 1: I can barely speak. I just when you told me

991
00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:07,279
Speaker 1: about this, Like basically, the way to think of it

992
00:57:07,400 --> 00:57:09,120
Speaker 1: is like if you've ever seen a Barbie doll or

993
00:57:09,160 --> 00:57:13,360
Speaker 1: a Kin doll, people are just wiping their entire genitals out.

994
00:57:14,239 --> 00:57:19,360
Speaker 1: I don't even know, Like this is clearly psychological, like

995
00:57:19,400 --> 00:57:25,600
Speaker 1: they are like clearly like mentally ill. Right. Body identity

996
00:57:25,640 --> 00:57:28,360
Speaker 1: integrity disorder is something that the that people that are

997
00:57:28,360 --> 00:57:31,360
Speaker 1: critical of the trans agenda and activism have been bringing

998
00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:36,360
Speaker 1: up for years because people realize that you're asking a

999
00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:39,280
Speaker 1: surgeon too, I don't like my left arm, Remove my

1000
00:57:39,360 --> 00:57:42,440
Speaker 1: left arm. That is essentially, you know, boiled down what

1001
00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:46,840
Speaker 1: we're talking about here. This is that now basically remove

1002
00:57:46,960 --> 00:57:51,120
Speaker 1: everything down there. This is body integrity identity disorder, which

1003
00:57:51,320 --> 00:57:54,480
Speaker 1: the transactivist community was always saying, well, we would that

1004
00:57:54,600 --> 00:57:57,680
Speaker 1: that's totally different. This is about living your truth. It's

1005
00:57:57,680 --> 00:58:01,280
Speaker 1: actually not that different. It's just crazy, and I don't

1006
00:58:01,280 --> 00:58:03,800
Speaker 1: know how we get back to not being crazy. Honestly,

1007
00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:06,800
Speaker 1: spend a lot of time thinking about that. We'll close out.

1008
00:58:06,840 --> 00:58:10,680
Speaker 1: Donald Trump is making his announcement tonight at nine. What

1009
00:58:10,720 --> 00:58:14,320
Speaker 1: do we hope that he says in this presidential announcement

1010
00:58:14,360 --> 00:58:17,640
Speaker 1: at Mara Lago tonight at nine Buck and I'll discuss certainly.

1011
00:58:17,640 --> 00:58:19,800
Speaker 1: We'll be talking about it tomorrow as well. In the meantime,

1012
00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:23,480
Speaker 1: getting kids to read not easy. If you have kids,

1013
00:58:23,480 --> 00:58:26,480
Speaker 1: and I do, I have found it to be very

1014
00:58:26,520 --> 00:58:30,080
Speaker 1: difficult at times to get them to read. And also

1015
00:58:30,400 --> 00:58:33,360
Speaker 1: what they read can matter a great deal. You want

1016
00:58:33,400 --> 00:58:38,120
Speaker 1: to entertain and also inform them, but understand what they

1017
00:58:38,240 --> 00:58:41,360
Speaker 1: are learning. And that's why I'm such a fan of

1018
00:58:41,720 --> 00:58:44,960
Speaker 1: Tuttle Radio dot com and the Tuttle Twins books to

1019

00:58:52,800 --> 00:58:55,800
Speaker 1: with you and your family. They focus very often, the

1022

Speaker 1: Tuttle Twins do, on our nation's history. They tell good stories,

1023
