1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,360 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:08,600 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome in Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show. 3 00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:13,200 Speaker 1: It is Friday, feels a little bit like groundhog Day. 4 00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:17,920 Speaker 1: The twelfth vote for the Speaker of the House will 5 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 1: commence shortly. We do not anticipate that Kevin McCarthy is 6 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:26,360 Speaker 1: going to win that vote either. Seems like the uncertainty 7 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:30,400 Speaker 1: over the House Speaker is going to roll into the weekend. 8 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:34,920 Speaker 1: To me, a great deal of drama there not a 9 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 1: lot changing. We'll see what exactly happens. We've got Julie 10 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:42,800 Speaker 1: Kelly on at one o'clock Eastern an hour from now 11 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 1: to talk about the anniversary of January sixth, which we 12 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:49,159 Speaker 1: will be discussing. Annapoline a Luna, who is one of 13 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 1: the twenty holdouts, also recently elected congresswoman from the state 14 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 1: of Florida, will join us right at the top of 15 00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 1: the third hour, right at the top of two o'clock 16 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:04,800 Speaker 1: Eastern out there to discuss the absolute latest in the 17 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:08,119 Speaker 1: House of Representatives and how things might be going there. 18 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:13,559 Speaker 1: But again, Buck with something that I think is going 19 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:16,840 Speaker 1: to dominate the narrative cycle on the left wing. But 20 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 1: I think we can puncture this as if it were 21 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:24,759 Speaker 1: a balloon right off the top here January sixth. First 22 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 1: of all, the idea that we would be celebrating in 23 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 1: any way or even commemorating a second anniversary of January sixth, 24 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 1: is evidence of how powerful Democrats and left wing media 25 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 1: and their allies have been in labeling January sixth as 26 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: a uniquely dangerous day in American history instead of labeling 27 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: it for what it was, a continuation of months of 28 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 1: rioting and the only one that Republicans were actually directly 29 00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 1: responsible for. And I do believe their remains so much 30 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 1: to be uncovered about why the security was so weak 31 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:11,800 Speaker 1: on and around the Capitol building on that day. It 32 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 1: is worth mentioning. And Julie Kelly, I imagine it is 33 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 1: really going to tee off on this because she's covered 34 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: this so well. The Department of Justice is planning buck 35 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 1: on still charging a thousand more people with crimes relating 36 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 1: to January six This is one of their top focuses 37 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 1: of investigation. They've already charged nearly a thousand people, most 38 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:39,519 Speaker 1: of them with nonviolent offenses for taking photos, for trespassing, 39 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: for entering into the capital without permission, so the idea 40 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 1: that they would continue to put resources out there, and 41 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:52,920 Speaker 1: I would just point out your Republicans, particularly in the House, 42 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 1: helped to drive hundreds of millions of dollars in additional 43 00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 1: money for the Department of Justice to be able to 44 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 1: pursue these individuals even more. But to me, what really 45 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: stands out here is we're talking about everyone out there 46 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:11,639 Speaker 1: on the left wing and the media saying this is 47 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 1: unacceptable that we have multi days to decide who's going 48 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 1: to be the Speaker of the House. But buck they 49 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 1: also tell us that it's totally normal for elections to 50 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 1: take one month to determine who actually won. So on 51 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,919 Speaker 1: the one hand, they say democracy is messy, it takes 52 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 1: a while to figure out who exactly is going to 53 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: be in power, and then when Republicans spend three days 54 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: fighting over who's going to be in power, they say 55 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: this is unacceptable and it's a major national security risk. 56 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 1: It is definitely ironic. At the minimum, you'll certainly waste 57 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 1: a lot of time if you spend it looking for 58 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 1: Democrats being principled, keeping their word on different things, having 59 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 1: standards that don't shift based upon whatever maybe most amenable 60 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 1: to them, most advantageous in the moment. Look the speaker fight. 61 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 1: I think people are going to get really bored of 62 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 1: this quickly here now, I honestly think are I think 63 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: it's reached this stage now where it's okay. So you 64 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 1: and I have said, let them figure it out, fight 65 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: it out. And if they want this to stretch on 66 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 1: for you know, a few more days or next week 67 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:21,919 Speaker 1: or whatever, it is fine. But the the messaging component 68 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: of this, there's a limit to it, right, It doesn't 69 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: you know, if somebody does a filibuster for whatever to 70 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,919 Speaker 1: six hours or twelve hours, either people are paying attention. 71 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: If you were saying that you were going to do 72 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,159 Speaker 1: a filibuster for a month, right, at some point people 73 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 1: just don't care. I just I'm using this as obviously 74 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: an example of the attention span or to draw draw 75 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: attention to the fact that people I think are getting 76 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 1: very bored of this. At first it's standing together. And 77 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,039 Speaker 1: by the way, I'm not saying don't keep doing and 78 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 1: I'm just saying I think that the messaging is going 79 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,720 Speaker 1: to be lost on a lot of people. And if 80 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 1: this continues to go as it is, so, if it's 81 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: really about the debate and reorienting the GOP. But we're 82 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 1: gonna have Annapolina Luna on, who's one of the twenty 83 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 1: ye who is standing together and as a friend of 84 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: mine friend to Clay, so we're gonna let her tell 85 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 1: you what's going on. I'm just saying I think that 86 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:15,599 Speaker 1: as ratings go and attention spans go, the speaker battle 87 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: is going to be something that that fades pretty quickly. Here. 88 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: You don't think people right now are like hitting their 89 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 1: radio dial as hard as they can to hear the 90 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 1: twelfth update of what happens in the speaker vote, because 91 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,280 Speaker 1: I agree with you, I think alert the twelfth vote 92 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: it's not going to solve this. Okay, we would know 93 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 1: if there was a deal. So they're gonna keep going 94 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 1: through this process. And you know, McCarthy as apparently as 95 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 1: of now, actually has failed to reach a deal. That's 96 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,279 Speaker 1: the headline on Fox News. And then on January sixth, 97 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 1: you know, unfortunately, I think Democrats were able to squeeze 98 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: more political juice out of that one than we had 99 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:57,600 Speaker 1: anticipated with the mid terms by running their constant coverage. Sure, 100 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: a lot of people see this and say, well, what 101 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 1: happened to the summer of twenty twenty, all the BLM riots, 102 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:06,839 Speaker 1: all that stuff that happened, Democrats were fine with it. 103 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 1: Democrats are fine with riots. It's you know, the voices 104 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: of the oppressed being heard by burning down a drug store, 105 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: you know, those peaceful protests, mostly peaceful. They're fine with 106 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,279 Speaker 1: all that. Then in the case of January six, we're 107 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 1: supposed to I don't know, relive this year and a 108 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,720 Speaker 1: year out that's going to fade as well. But they 109 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 1: did get they did get some mileage out of it 110 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 1: for the midterms, as we know, which was a bit 111 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 1: of a surprise. But that is what happened. And depending 112 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: on who the Republican nominee is, they will go all 113 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 1: out on this. I mean, let's not forget they spent 114 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 1: three years. It was really only the pandemic that got 115 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 1: them to stop obsessively talking about Russia collusion. Russia collusion 116 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: was the single biggest news story in America for three years, right, 117 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 1: there was nothing else that really twenty sixteen to twenty nineteen, 118 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 1: there were there were lunatic libs who built whole careers 119 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 1: on lines. Rachel Maddow reached her all time peak and viewership, 120 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 1: her all time pinnacle by doing these Russia collusion monologues 121 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 1: every night. I bring it up, Clay, just because if 122 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 1: anyone thinks they won't make January six a centerpiece of 123 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:19,119 Speaker 1: things if Donald Trump is a nominee in twenty twenty four, 124 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 1: I got news for them. That's part. It's part of 125 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 1: the plan, for sure, a major part of the plan. 126 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any doubt. And that was one 127 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 1: of the most disappointing things of the twenty twenty two 128 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: election was that independence broke for Democrats by about two points, 129 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: and that's unheard of because usually independence break against the 130 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 1: party in power. And one reason was I think Democrats 131 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 1: had some success branding Donald Trump in January sixth as 132 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 1: a direct threat to democracy, and that's why they're going 133 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 1: to keep hitting that same mantra of January sixth is 134 00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 1: a threat to democracy. And I would say we've talked 135 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: about this a little bit, but I think Republicans mishandled 136 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 1: the Summer of Riots because they tried to legitimize in 137 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: some way the riots themselves right instead of just going 138 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 1: straight law in order. And I think probably that was 139 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: because a little bit Trump was ham handed in the 140 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: way you mean in the early days yes, there was 141 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 1: this because there and it was only a few, it 142 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 1: was some Republicans, but there was this, oh, we should 143 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 1: hear out the grievances and do police reform. And that 144 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 1: lasted about it maybe a month. Yeah, and I think 145 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,680 Speaker 1: Trump actually came out too aggressively because he was like, 146 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,200 Speaker 1: remember when he sent that tweet, like when the rioting starts, 147 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 1: the shooting starts, and I'm paraphrasing. So he almost went 148 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: too far right where it was like, Hey, we're gonna 149 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 1: shoot rioters as opposed to just trying to stamp down 150 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 1: the riots. And so the response I think of the 151 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:03,560 Speaker 1: Republican Party to the riot was not as politically adroit 152 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:07,559 Speaker 1: as it needed to be. Whereas from the moment January 153 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 1: sixth happened, Democrats have been in lockstep. I mean they've 154 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 1: tried to say legitimately for years now that January sixth 155 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 1: the worst day in our country since the Civil War. 156 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: I mean, they decided that was going to be their argument. 157 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 1: They were going to step over Chaparral Harbor, they were 158 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 1: going to step over a nine to eleven and go 159 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:32,439 Speaker 1: directly to the essence of January sixth as a modern 160 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,680 Speaker 1: day civil war, almost as if this were a real 161 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 1: attempt to overthrow the government and enough people, you know, 162 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: the left wing loons are going to buy it. But 163 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,960 Speaker 1: what's been disappointing to me, Buck, is that enough people 164 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 1: were willing to buy that narrative that I do think 165 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:52,960 Speaker 1: it's been politically advantageous to Democrats, which is why the 166 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:57,320 Speaker 1: second anniversary of January sixth is even a thing. And 167 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:00,200 Speaker 1: they're going to try to tie it into their not 168 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:04,239 Speaker 1: being a Republican House speaker as evidence of our democracy 169 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:07,679 Speaker 1: still being under siege. I hope that doesn't work, but 170 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: that's what they're going to try. Yeah. And of course, 171 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:13,239 Speaker 1: if if this had gone along seamlessly and Kevin McCarthy 172 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: had won right out of the gate and no big deal, 173 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 1: they'd be talking about out See, the Republicans haven't changed 174 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:23,079 Speaker 1: at all, hundred terrible days of January six They won't 175 00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:25,840 Speaker 1: stand up to the crazies in their own party. So 176 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 1: you know, you can't win either way with them, which 177 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 1: is always the way that it is. They're not actually 178 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 1: seeking in a great game to be in when you win, 179 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 1: no matter what the result it is, right, Yeah, So 180 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: that's the approach of Democrats, no matter what we're talking about. 181 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: And I just think that on the January sixth thing today, 182 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 1: you know, if nothing else, the speaker the speaker fight 183 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 1: right now may not be getting the wrapped attention of 184 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 1: a lot of America. I don't know, I mean some people. 185 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 1: If you're into politics, this is an interesting situation. Although 186 00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: you know, the twelfth vote, the twentieth. The fact that 187 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 1: the same thing every time, even if you're into politics, 188 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: makes it When the same vote happens twelve consecutive times, 189 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 1: it's like, Okay, it's an interesting story, but it's hard 190 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 1: to feel like there's much drama in terms of what's changing. Yeah, 191 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: and so with that in mind, I do think it 192 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: is at least surfing some purpose. The good news about 193 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: the twelfth House speaker vote that is about to begin 194 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 1: as we are talking to you it's gonna happen again, 195 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: is that at least it means that we're not every 196 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:32,439 Speaker 1: moment we're watching the speaker vote, We're not watching Adam 197 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: Kinzinger or Adam Schiff or Nancy Pelosi, you know, tear 198 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 1: up about every year on January sixth, in the trauma 199 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 1: of you know, being in the general vicinity of a riot. 200 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 1: I mean, they're they're fine with riots as long as 201 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 1: they're Biden voters. Yes, and the idea again, I think 202 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 1: it has to be hammered home. The amount of lying 203 00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:01,680 Speaker 1: about who died on January sixth. You know, I saw, 204 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 1: like I was reading this morning, they were like the 205 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 1: blood soaked insurrection. That was one of the ways that 206 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,080 Speaker 1: it was described in the New York Times today, the 207 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 1: blood soaked insurrection. I mean, Ashley Babbitt was unarmed, minor 208 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 1: threat at best, and she was shot and killed. She 209 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 1: was a protester, an arm source services veteran. She's the 210 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 1: only person who died on January sixth, huge percentage. We 211 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 1: talked a lot about misinformation and disinformation, and the left 212 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 1: wing loves to lob those attacks at us buck. A 213 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 1: huge percentage of the American public believes that multiple police 214 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 1: officers were murdered on January sixth, Like they believe that, 215 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 1: and Democrats continue to fuel that story even though it's 216 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 1: one hundred percent and accurate. I mean, one of the 217 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 1: more stunning statistics that people can see is how many, 218 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 1: just going back to the VLM riots, for example, the 219 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 1: percentage Democrats that think that there are thousands, thousands of 220 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 1: unarmed black men who were shot every year by police 221 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,720 Speaker 1: is staggering. I mean, it's like twenty percent, thirty percent, 222 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 1: forty the real numbers we know, depending on the it's 223 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 1: usually less than twenty some years. It's been eight some years, 224 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,520 Speaker 1: it's been fifteen. Every one of those deaths, of course, 225 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,599 Speaker 1: tragic and should be investigated to the fullest extent of 226 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 1: the law and punish where that's where, that is what 227 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,559 Speaker 1: should happen. But it's not thousands of people. But that 228 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 1: was the basis of the mentality that led to the 229 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 1: riots that Nancy Pelos and the Democrats were fine with 230 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,080 Speaker 1: in an election year, that led people to lock down 231 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,079 Speaker 1: their businesses, to board up their windows because they were 232 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 1: terrified if Joe Biden didn't win. I remember that, You 233 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 1: remember that the stat that will blow people's mind that 234 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 1: almost no one knows seventy five percent of people who 235 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 1: were shot and killed by police are white, Asian or Hispanic. 236 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:59,840 Speaker 1: Seventy five that's a pretty staggering stay even some of 237 00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 1: you out there listening right now or like what, yes, 238 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 1: seventy five percent of people shot and killed by police, white, 239 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 1: Asian or Hispanic changes the narrative quite a lot. You ever, 240 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 1: hear it talked about anywhere, but that is the truth. Certainly, 241 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 1: any improper shooting should be investigated, but that is the reality. 242 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 1: I want to talk to you about Legacy Box for 243 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 1: a minute, my friends.

You can't say I 262 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 1: am I'm a man of principle and I believe in X, 263 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 1: Y and Z, but if he gives me X Y 264 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 1: and Z, I'm not going to vote for him. What. Well, 265 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 1: here's normally makes sense. Here's how it makes sense, Laura, 266 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 1: Kevin McCarthy is the masthead of the lobby corps, and 267 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 1: I resent the extent to which Kevin McCarthy utilizes the 268 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 1: lobbyists and the special interests to be able to dictate 269 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 1: how political decisions are made, how policy decisions are made, 270 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 1: and how leadership decisions are made. Kevin McCarthy has been 271 00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 1: in the leadership for fourteen years, and he is sold 272 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 1: shares of himself to special interests, to political action committees, 273 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:06,880 Speaker 1: and so that's why I don't think he is an 274 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 1: appropriate choice. Interesting back and forth there, welcome back to 275 00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 1: Clay and Buck between the Laura Ingraham on Fox and 276 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 1: Congressman Matt Gates on this issue. I was thinking Clay 277 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 1: at one point last night that there would be a deal. Right. 278 00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 1: There were some reports that there had been a deal struck, 279 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 1: and it seemed to me like that's It still seems 280 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 1: to me that's probably the likeliest way this thing comes 281 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 1: to a conclusion. But I don't really know. And it 282 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 1: does also feel like the more people I talked to 283 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 1: about this, there's just a sense that I think a 284 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 1: lot of a lot of people on the right they 285 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 1: just want a little chaos and introduced into the system. 286 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 1: They the fact that they're the gears are kind of 287 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:51,920 Speaker 1: grinding against each other on this. They like that. I 288 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: think also people are angry, right what I mean? Yeah, 289 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 1: And and and I feel like the anger is going 290 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: to spiral out in a big way in twenty twenty 291 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,919 Speaker 1: three because we're gonna move from hey, we're all on 292 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:09,479 Speaker 1: the same team. Democrats are crazy. So the story of 293 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:11,880 Speaker 1: twenty twenty three is who's going to be the nominee 294 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 1: in twenty four And I know the voting won't start 295 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 1: until January, probably in Iowa, in February in New Hampshire. 296 00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 1: I don't even know that we've officially got the primary 297 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:26,199 Speaker 1: calendar out there yet. But all of twenty twenty three 298 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: is gonna be about jockeying for position and it's going 299 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: to feature a lot of people taking shots like did 300 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 1: you see I think you texted me Buck Christy.

There's gonna 304 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:46,400 Speaker 1: be a lot of brushback pitches, a lot of elbows 305 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:49,200 Speaker 1: thrown as we move into twenty twenty three. This is 306 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,719 Speaker 1: what I mean. If people are getting really huffy with 307 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 1: their fellow conservatives over who's going to be speaker, wait 308 00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 1: till we start picking a president, folks, or a presidential nominee, 309 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 1: things are gonna get that.

That's why 333 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 1: I think you need to read widely New York Times, 334 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 1: Washington Post, even if you hate and recognize all of 335 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:39,120 Speaker 1: their bias, because there's a ton of people out there. 336 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 1: I really do believe this, Buck, tens of millions of 337 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 1: people who are persuadable, but they just haven't been red pilled. 338 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 1: They just live in the mainstream media universe, and they 339 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 1: believe that the media has their best interests. At Hart 340 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 1: and even Crazily is unbiased. CNN has hired Adam Kinsinger. 341 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,640 Speaker 1: I don't think we meant that. There's a great meme 342 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw it, Buck, where it 343 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:07,880 Speaker 1: shows Adam Kinzinger morphing into Brian Stelter in like four pictures, 344 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 1: which is really funny. Obviously Stelter fired at reliable sources. 345 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 1: What is he now at Harvard? Speaking of people who 346 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:18,120 Speaker 1: get protected no matter what they say, I think Brian 347 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 1: Stelter is now a professor crazily at Harvard. He's a 348 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:25,360 Speaker 1: scholar of media at how to be incredibly successful and 349 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 1: dashingly handsome. This is what they are saying on CNN. 350 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 1: I want you to listen to John King and Dana Bash. 351 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:39,680 Speaker 1: If you were just a regular person who, let's say, 352 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:42,400 Speaker 1: like back in the eighties and nineties, you trusted CNN, 353 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:45,160 Speaker 1: which I think was fair Buck, If you were like 354 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 1: graphing CNN's trustworthiness, did it absolutely peak during the Gulf 355 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 1: War when everybody had CNN on. If you remember when 356 00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: Bernard Shaw was doing television from a Baghdad hotel, room 357 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,959 Speaker 1: as all the bombs began to fall. I would bet 358 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:07,879 Speaker 1: if you trajectory graft ESPN, I mean ESPN two, but 359 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:12,399 Speaker 1: CNN's trustworthiness in the American public, I would bet it 360 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:15,879 Speaker 1: peaked around ninety two. Would you buy that? Yeah? I 361 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 1: think that the Democrat Party. And it's funny because Democrats 362 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 1: think Republicans have gone so far right and so crazy. Meanwhile, 363 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 1: if you look at what's happened in the last twenty years, 364 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 1: what have Republicans really shifted far right on? You know, 365 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 1: but nothing? But Democrats have gone completely insane. So I 366 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 1: think that there are two factors in the transformation of 367 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 1: a center left news entity like CNN into you know, 368 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:45,400 Speaker 1: Pravda for the commies in America. One is the trajectory 369 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:48,400 Speaker 1: of the Democrat Party. But then also there's so many 370 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 1: more news sources and news options now that you've effectively 371 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:59,399 Speaker 1: had a Balkanization, you've had a micro targeting effect where 372 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:02,879 Speaker 1: people have to find their audience among all these different 373 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,200 Speaker 1: audiences they used to have them themselves, or you go 374 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 1: back to like Edward R. Murrow and you go back 375 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 1: to the dan Rather days and these things they didn't 376 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:13,199 Speaker 1: really have competition. Yeah, once you introduce competition into this 377 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:16,879 Speaker 1: all of a sudden. Just presenting the news is a 378 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 1: far less, far less of a differentiator because people get 379 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 1: their news from a bunch of different places. Well, I 380 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 1: will say two. International seems to be where CNN still 381 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 1: makes its hay right, and we rip CNN, I think 382 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,680 Speaker 1: rightly for their domestic coverage. But during the early days 383 00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:37,000 Speaker 1: of Ukraine when they had was it Clarissa Ward who 384 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 1: was the woman who was so good on the on 385 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 1: the ground in Ukraine? Well, well she was the one 386 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 1: that did all the Syria coverage. I think she was 387 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 1: also in Ukraine as well. Yeah, but she was fantastic 388 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:50,679 Speaker 1: and I think you could trust her. You can't trust 389 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 1: domestic coverage. I want to play this cut. This is 390 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 1: John King and Dana Bash talking about two years. You know, Donald, 391 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 1: it's Donna Bash, Donna, Donna Bash. Damn. Here, I think 392 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 1: it's Danna. Is it Danna or Donna? Well, now you're 393 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 1: getting in a tomato tomato, my friend, I don't know. 394 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 1: Let's listen. Maybe they'll even reference each other's name. CNN 395 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,919 Speaker 1: on the horror that was January sixth that Matt Gates 396 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,879 Speaker 1: would nominate Donald Trump for Speaker of the House on 397 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:24,160 Speaker 1: January fifth, hours away from the second anniversary of January sixth, 398 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 1: just tells you how this is not a serious enterprise, 399 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 1: how at least many of the holdouts are just not 400 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:33,119 Speaker 1: serious people. Two years ago tomorrow, Donald Trump tried to 401 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 1: steal the country, try to overturn an election, try to 402 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:39,159 Speaker 1: subvert the democracy that lives in that building. So it 403 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: just shows you that this for some of them is 404 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,399 Speaker 1: just not a serious enterprise. It's a protest, it's a sport. 405 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 1: Call it what you will. Matt Gates can choose his 406 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 1: own words, but it's not serious and it's not about governing. 407 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 1: Took the words out of my mouth. I'll go step further. 408 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 1: It's repugnant. Oh it is. You know. There are two 409 00:23:57,840 --> 00:23:59,919 Speaker 1: things that I do believe we have to always your 410 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:04,199 Speaker 1: mind everybody about because you know the problem with the 411 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:08,840 Speaker 1: lit media propagandas that they still have far more mouthpieces 412 00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:14,639 Speaker 1: and platforms dispew this stuff. One is that there was 413 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:18,119 Speaker 1: no plan to like this was not actually going to happen. 414 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 1: I mean talking about the riot. Yes, now they could 415 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: say that they don't like what Trump was when he 416 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:24,679 Speaker 1: was saying I think they cheated in this state, or 417 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:28,199 Speaker 1: that state. But that's within the process, like demanding recounts 418 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 1: and taking people to court. There was nothing wrong with 419 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:35,200 Speaker 1: any of the uh uh, it's a wait, it's Dana, 420 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 1: bash I even got so it's it's not Dana. I 421 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:42,119 Speaker 1: think she's telling me it's Dana anyway, Dad, after my 422 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 1: initial First of all, if your name is da Na, 423 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: it should be pronounced data. All right, that is freaking Dana. 424 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 1: I'm with you. I think I think that we all 425 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 1: need to come together as a society. You just agree 426 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,639 Speaker 1: on certain things, and that's that's one of them. Um. 427 00:24:55,720 --> 00:25:00,160 Speaker 1: But anyway, they there was no real plan to overthrow 428 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,159 Speaker 1: the government by the people who were there. That was 429 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,919 Speaker 1: never going to happen. And if anyone did think that 430 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 1: that was going to happen, then they were delusional. And 431 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:08,960 Speaker 1: that's that's a sad meaning that they were going to 432 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,679 Speaker 1: overthrow by force without any weapons. And you know, the 433 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 1: whole thing was it just there was no real plan. 434 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 1: But beyond that, the Democrats had spent the previous three years, yes, 435 00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 1: trying to use hijacked elements of the federal government to 436 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 1: out the sitting president who had won a free and 437 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:30,440 Speaker 1: fair election, Donald Trump in twenty sixteen, and they act 438 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 1: like that didn't even you. Oh what are you talking about? 439 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:36,399 Speaker 1: They were trying to undo the twenty sixteen election for 440 00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 1: three years, and then all of a sudden there's a 441 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:40,720 Speaker 1: ride in twenty and twenty twenty and people are saying, 442 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 1: hold on, I disagree with this process in court, that's fine. 443 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:48,119 Speaker 1: The riot not fine. And we're the only ones that 444 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:49,920 Speaker 1: have ever that I've ever had to sit back and say, 445 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 1: hold on a second, maybe there's a problem here, give 446 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,680 Speaker 1: me a break. Yeah, And I want to build on 447 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,359 Speaker 1: that for a sect too. They let's not forget that 448 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 1: not only did they say twenty sixteen was illegitimate, they 449 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:04,880 Speaker 1: did rig the twenty twenty election. Right. The Twitter files 450 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:08,160 Speaker 1: are proving beyond a shadow of a doubt through big 451 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 1: tech that they rigged that election, and it didn't get 452 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 1: a lot of attention. But I also think this is significant. 453 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 1: We talked about the one point seven trillion an omnibus 454 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:22,320 Speaker 1: bill that nobody stood up to buck. In that omnibus bill, 455 00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:28,920 Speaker 1: they adjusted the way that the electors the votes are 456 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:35,640 Speaker 1: received on January sixth, because there was some legal uncertainty 457 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:40,040 Speaker 1: that had been noted and potentially was going to be 458 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:44,960 Speaker 1: exploited by Trump. Now, I'm not bothered by that because 459 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:51,919 Speaker 1: legal ambiguity lends itself to legal advice that may not 460 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:55,919 Speaker 1: We don't know what is and is not constitutional until 461 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court tells us right. And the reality is, 462 00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 1: I believe the Supreme Court would have voted nine zero 463 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 1: that what Donald Trump wanted Mike Pence to do was unconstitutional. 464 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: That is my opinion as a lawyer. Okay, But there 465 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 1: was enough legal ambiguity there in terms of the vice 466 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 1: president's role on January sixth that it's not an abrogation 467 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 1: or abdignation of the legal process for that advice to 468 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 1: Trump to have been given. Now, a lot of people 469 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:32,919 Speaker 1: rejected it and said I don't buy into it, and 470 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 1: I think the Supreme Court would as well. But buck, 471 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,199 Speaker 1: how many times have we seen Joe Biden himself do 472 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:44,000 Speaker 1: things that he believes are unconstitutional because it aids him politically. 473 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:52,480 Speaker 1: The vaccine mandate, the decision to extend the emergency so 474 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 1: that the eviction moratorium continued. Those are unconstitutional acts undertaken 475 00:27:57,320 --> 00:27:59,879 Speaker 1: by the President that the Supreme Court said you can't do. 476 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: I think it's so significant. On January sixth one, it 477 00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:06,120 Speaker 1: didn't work. It wasn't really an attempt to overthrow the government, 478 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 1: but there was uncertainty legally there that they actually changed 479 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 1: in this most recent omnibus bill that nobody is discussing 480 00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:18,879 Speaker 1: because there was a legal ambiguity there. Yeah. Plus there 481 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:21,880 Speaker 1: were elements of the federal government that US private entities 482 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 1: to violate the First Amendment rights of countless Americans in 483 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:29,480 Speaker 1: an election. Specifically, that's election interference, yes, by the regime. 484 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:33,199 Speaker 1: That is cheating. That happened. So there's a lot of 485 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:35,040 Speaker 1: stuff we could talk of it here. Then, oh, the 486 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:39,440 Speaker 1: the insurrection, give me a break, rising inflation, a volatile 487 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 1: stock market where you can have a coome retirement accounts 488 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: until all the economic uncertainty out there turns around. Look, 489 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 1: the Phoenix Capital Groups suggests you diversify your investments. Today 490 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 1: they're introducing investors to high value oil and gas investments 491 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 1: here in the US with current yields which range from 492 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:57,959 Speaker 1: eight percent to eleven percent apy paid monthly.

I think the Daily Mail 506 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:53,320 Speaker 1: is a pretty good news site overall, one of my favorites, 507 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 1: but unfortunately sometimes it is completely overtaken as it is 508 00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 1: a British news to Abloyd with royal family stuff. So 509 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 1: because Clay as our resident Royal family expert, I just 510 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 1: want to tell him there are a lot of news 511 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 1: stories up right now about the Royals. You've got spare 512 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:16,719 Speaker 1: the book by Prince Harry former Prince Harry the Artists 513 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 1: formerly known as Prince Harry is that he's been stricken 514 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 1: from the Royal Register. But here here's a story for 515 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 1: you that you know you want to talk about clickbait 516 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:29,200 Speaker 1: Harry's This is the quote, Harry's frost bitten penis isn't 517 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 1: as rare as you might think. All you need to 518 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:34,760 Speaker 1: know about the bizarre injury after the Prince confessed to 519 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 1: using Elizabeth Arden cream to soothe Payne from a two 520 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 1: hundred mile Arctic charity expedition. So yeah, a lot of 521 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:47,800 Speaker 1: royal family stuff, including an important safety tip involving Elizabeth 522 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 1: Arden cream. Clay I was unaware of this. I admittedly 523 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 1: am clicking on stories like crazy because do you know 524 00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 1: how all these revelations are coming out. I'm embarrassed to 525 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 1: even know this. So the book is embargoed, right like 526 00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 1: Prince Harry has written a book. This is just to 527 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 1: be clear. That's from the book. That's the excerpt from 528 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 1: the book they're talking about. Yeah, but it's not supposed 529 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:10,880 Speaker 1: to be out till Tuesday. I mean they're treating this 530 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 1: as a great state secret. Do you remember, did you 531 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 1: read the Harry Potter books. I actually did not. I've 532 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 1: had it in the movies either. All right, I've read 533 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 1: all the Harry Potter books. I've seen all the movies. 534 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 1: But as each of those would come out, it was 535 00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:28,240 Speaker 1: a tremendous embargo, right, like, you weren't allowed to put 536 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 1: those books out until midnight on the release date, and 537 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 1: then they had release parties everywhere and and it was 538 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 1: a big deal. So they have embargoed. And people probably 539 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:42,480 Speaker 1: don't know this, but books are released on Tuesdays all 540 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:46,640 Speaker 1: over the world. New books come out every Tuesday, and 541 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 1: so the Prince Harry book is not coming out until Tuesday. 542 00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 1: Somebody in Spain, some bookstore in Spain, accidentally put the 543 00:31:56,640 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 1: Prince Harry book translated into Spanish out on bookshelves and 544 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:04,520 Speaker 1: people were able to buy it like a week early. 545 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 1: I'm amazed at how much you know about this by 546 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 1: I didn't even check with the beforehead. He's so up 547 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 1: on the royal family, it's amazing. So they got translators 548 00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 1: to read the Prince Harry book and translate it from 549 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,760 Speaker 1: for all of the British tabloids so that they could 550 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:24,120 Speaker 1: break all of the revelations. The biggest revelation, according to 551 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:27,720 Speaker 1: Prince Harry is that he and William got into a 552 00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:31,960 Speaker 1: physical fight and that William threw him to the ground 553 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:37,280 Speaker 1: over Megan Markle, which to me is kind of a 554 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I read everything about the story. I didn't 555 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:43,880 Speaker 1: expect that Prince William was just out here throwing people 556 00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 1: around on the grounds. I mean, if I had said 557 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,720 Speaker 1: to you before this book came out, do you think 558 00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:52,800 Speaker 1: that Prince William has been in a fight, physical altercation 559 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:55,680 Speaker 1: in the last five years, I would have been a 560 00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:58,200 Speaker 1: lot of money. The answer is no. Well, then you 561 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 1: have Prince Harry, who has told now that he told 562 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,720 Speaker 1: everyone in his book that when he was in an 563 00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:08,360 Speaker 1: Apache pilot in Afghanistan, he says he killed twenty five 564 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:11,960 Speaker 1: Taliban fighters and that he viewed them as chess pieces 565 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:15,200 Speaker 1: to take off the board. A lot of people are 566 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:22,040 Speaker 1: at that revelation too, just the whole putting out the number, 567 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:25,560 Speaker 1: talking about his view of the Taliban. I mean, look, 568 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 1: I'm just I'm amazed that the royal family has persisted 569 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 1: up to this point. I think it is a preposterous 570 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 1: anachronism and everyone should see it that way too. But 571 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 1: it does get a lot, it does get a lot 572 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 1: of media attention. And because you're watching The Crown right now, 573 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:43,840 Speaker 1: come clean and it's a pretty good show. We've watched 574 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:45,640 Speaker 1: The Crown. The Crown is pretty good. Not gonna lie, 575 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 1: Are we gonna have former Prince Harry on the show 576 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,840 Speaker 1: to talk about his book. How do you think about this, Oh, 577 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:55,240 Speaker 1: if they reach out, the answer is one billion percent yes, 578 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:58,520 Speaker 1: I would be. I mean, yes, we gotta talk to 579 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 1: I don't think they'll reach it. I don't think they'll 580 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:03,440 Speaker 1: try to get him on this show, but they should 581 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:05,080 Speaker 1: try to get him on this show. And I think 582 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 1: our answer would have to be yes. You would say 583 00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 1: no to Prince Harry. I think I'd have to say 584 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,880 Speaker 1: yes as well, just because it is it's gonna be, 585 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 1: this is gonna be a story, It's this is one 586 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:17,520 Speaker 1: of these things where people just care a lot more 587 00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 1: about this than I understand. Then I can understand why 588 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:23,440 Speaker 1: they would care at this level. And that is absolutely 589 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 1: the case with the Prince Harry memoir that's going to 590 00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:31,600 Speaker 1: come out and the studio running an internet company. The 591 00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:34,720 Speaker 1: amount of stories that people say, I don't care about 592 00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:37,719 Speaker 1: that at all, and then you look at the data 593 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 1: and they click is everybody lies about what they actually 594 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:44,880 Speaker 1: like on the internet. Like this is a good example 595 00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 1: for radio. Back in the day, they measure our audience 596 00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:52,240 Speaker 1: with these ppms, these personal people meters they used to monitor. 597 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:54,239 Speaker 1: It's crazy, like in the early days, when I first 598 00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:56,880 Speaker 1: started in radio, you just had a booklet and people 599 00:34:56,880 --> 00:35:00,879 Speaker 1: would write down what they diary a diary. What they 600 00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:04,960 Speaker 1: found was people claim that they listen to classical music 601 00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 1: way more than they actually did. Right, people would say, oh, 602 00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:10,480 Speaker 1: I listen to classical music because because it made them 603 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:13,720 Speaker 1: feel better about themselves. A lot of people on everybody 604 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,719 Speaker 1: lies on social media about what they click on. People claim, 605 00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 1: for instance, at OutKick we have you know, good looking 606 00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:22,400 Speaker 1: girl who's dating a quarterback, They're like, you go in 607 00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:24,279 Speaker 1: the comments after every one of the stories, like I 608 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 1: don't even why does anybody care? What who the quarterbacks dating? 609 00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:32,279 Speaker 1: Their fingers break because they click on the story so 610 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 1: quickly when something like that goes up. So the Royal family, 611 00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:38,360 Speaker 1: I feel, is similar to that, and that it's a 612 00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 1: guilty pleasure that many people claim they have no interest in. 613 00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:44,960 Speaker 1: I guarantee you the New York Post one of its 614 00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:48,279 Speaker 1: most read stories this week even in America, will be 615 00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 1: Prince Harry revelations from their book. I just think the 616 00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:55,400 Speaker 1: Brits should spend more time trying to turn around the 617 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:59,160 Speaker 1: collapse of their once great civilization and stop being so 618 00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:05,759 Speaker 1: accepted of the long slow slide into mediocrity and irrelevancy 619 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:07,600 Speaker 1: they have as a country. I just feel like they 620 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:10,160 Speaker 1: could focus on some other things a little bit, because 621 00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:12,360 Speaker 1: if you think that there are stories that dominate the 622 00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:14,600 Speaker 1: news cycle, here you go. You look at you can 623 00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:19,760 Speaker 1: look at British media obsessed with these people who do nothing, 624 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:23,920 Speaker 1: are worth nothing and mean nothing. They're British Royal family. 625 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:26,880 Speaker 1: They love it. It's crazy, you know, buck. I got 626 00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:29,839 Speaker 1: to study abroad in England. I love London, right, It's 627 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:31,920 Speaker 1: one of my favorite places to go. Not like I've 628 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:33,440 Speaker 1: spend a ton of time in Europe, but I've been 629 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:36,600 Speaker 1: to London several times and I studied abroad in London. 630 00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:39,760 Speaker 1: One of my favorite things to do was by every 631 00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 1: one of the British tabloids on like a Sunday and 632 00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:47,560 Speaker 1: just chill and read all the craziness there. They are. 633 00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:52,720 Speaker 1: One brutal in their media, two really really funny. Three 634 00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:56,520 Speaker 1: not relating to this, we have got some movement in 635 00:36:56,960 --> 00:37:02,359 Speaker 1: the ongoing House of Representatives vote the twelve ballots. Kevin 636 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:06,279 Speaker 1: McCarthy is picking up votes, probably not going to get 637 00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:09,200 Speaker 1: enough to be officially the speaker, but we will fill 638 00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:11,440 Speaker 1: you in with exactly how many he has picked up. 639 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:15,920 Speaker 1: There is movement after eleven votes where nothing changed, momentum 640 00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:18,400 Speaker 1: on Kevin McCarthy side. We'll tell you how much when 641 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:24,520 Speaker 1: we come back, Bucky Lucky number twelve. There you go, Fleet, Travis, 642 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:28,200 Speaker 1: and Buck Sexton on the front lines of truth
