Speaker 1: You're listening to the Buck Sexton Joe podcast, make sure
Speaker 1: you subscribe to the podcast on the Iheartradiot or wherever
Speaker 1: you get your podcasts. Welcome to hold the line. I
Speaker 1: am Rob Smith filling in for the great Buck Sexton.
Speaker 1: If you like me, check out my podcast. Can't cancel
Speaker 1: Rob Smith wherever you get your podcasts. So, look, politicians
Speaker 1: lie like they breathe. This is nothing new. It is
Speaker 1: practically a part of the job description. Look, politicians lie
Speaker 1: and lie and lie. Then they take a deep breath.
Speaker 1: Then they lie some more. Then the ones in DC
Speaker 1: go have dinner at the Diplomat. Then they go back
Speaker 1: to their office and they lie some more, and then
Speaker 1: they take a deep breath. Then they lie some more.
Speaker 1: Then they get on the phone, lie to their donors,
Speaker 1: get more money so that they can lie to you.
Speaker 1: This is what politicians do. And I am no longer
Speaker 1: shocked by this. But guys, the lies that are coming
Speaker 1: from the Biden administration our next level, precisely because these
Speaker 1: people are lying about the very things that are currently
Speaker 1: making your life and mine that much harder. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: said my life. Look you see me on the TV
Speaker 1: screen and hear me on the podcast. But I am
Speaker 1: not some multi millionaire. I am not Kim Kardashian. I'm
Speaker 1: not jumping on my yacht after this show. I am
Speaker 1: very far from it. Look, guys, gas and groceries that
Speaker 1: are more expensive hurts. It hurts me, It hurts you
Speaker 1: who it does not hurt who does not really care
Speaker 1: about all of this stuff any further than the lies
Speaker 1: that they tell you from the podium. Are the people
Speaker 1: in the Biden administration? Are these bureaucrats, These people who
Speaker 1: have been in DC screwing up for decades and decades
Speaker 1: and decades and have failed up into these positions that
Speaker 1: they are so obviously not ready for Pasin point, Joe
Speaker 1: Biden's been in DC longer than I've been a live
Speaker 1: folks here, he is messing things up, And these people
Speaker 1: will lie to you over and over again and tell
Speaker 1: you that it is someone else's fault. These people are
Speaker 1: passing the buck no pun intended, every single day. If
Speaker 1: your groceries are more expensive, it's the fault of those
Speaker 1: evil meat companies. Yeah, we're looking at you, Hormel. That's
Speaker 1: why it's your fault. Spam is more expensive, as spam
Speaker 1: is even meat. If your gas is more expensive. It's
Speaker 1: because of you guessed it, Vladimir Putin. He is the
Speaker 1: Left's favorite super villain. He is the villain. He is
Speaker 1: the person that they want you to believe is making
Speaker 1: your gas prices this high. Listen to Biden's liar in chief,
Speaker 1: White House Press Secretary Karin John Pierre, as she shuffles
Speaker 1: through her binder of lies to give a camera response
Speaker 1: when asked about these gas prices. Final question on gas prices.
Speaker 1: Americans are now spending five thousand dollars a year on gasolina,
Speaker 1: almost double what they did a year ago. Where are
Speaker 1: people supposed to go to get all that extra cash,
Speaker 1: to get the extra cash to pay for gas? Yeah? Well,
Speaker 1: I mean one of the things that we've been very
Speaker 1: clear about is to do everything in our power to
Speaker 1: make sure that we lower costs. You know, it is
Speaker 1: important we see it. The President understands what the American
Speaker 1: people is going through, and that's why we're doing everything
Speaker 1: that we can. We've made multiple announcements in the past
Speaker 1: several several months of what we're doing, whether it's the
Speaker 1: Strategic Petroleum Reserve, whether it's the Ethanol fifteen to make
Speaker 1: sure that the American people are not feeling Putin's price hike.
Speaker 1: This is where this is coming from. Sixty to seventy
Speaker 1: percent of the current price hike that we have seen
Speaker 1: has come from Pune's aggression against Ukraine. Yes, it's Putin's
Speaker 1: price hike. Punine's aggression against Ukraine. You know, don't mind
Speaker 1: your lie in eyes that will read that. According to
Speaker 1: Triple A data, gas has doubled in price since Biden
Speaker 1: took office in January twenty twenty one. While the fifty
Speaker 1: billion dollars war in Ukraine, that war that is still
Speaker 1: going on. By the way, that the DC and the Establishment,
Speaker 1: all of these people have basically printed out all of
Speaker 1: this money to send over there has only been going
Speaker 1: on for four months, by the way, DC crooks, how
Speaker 1: is that going Oh, and don't even think about mentioning
Speaker 1: the fact that one of the first things that Joe
Speaker 1: Biden did when he took office was he killed the
Speaker 1: Keystone pipeline. These policies matter, folks, and these policies are
Speaker 1: what are making your gas in mind that much more expensive.
Speaker 1: Grin Jehan Pierre is so bad it almost makes you
Speaker 1: long for the days of Jensaki, who looked at least
Speaker 1: lied to us without having to check her notes every
Speaker 1: fifteen seconds. It's almost enough to make me want to
Speaker 1: watch her upcoming MSNBC show, just playing nobody's gonna watch
Speaker 1: that show. Taxpaer dollars paid for the Jensaki Show for
Speaker 1: the past year of our lives, and only the brain
Speaker 1: dead executives at MSNBC wanted that one renewed. And of
Speaker 1: course that brings me to the media. Yes, they are
Speaker 1: to blame. And look, I know that it's low hanging fruit.
Speaker 1: As a conservative commentator, political figure, whatevery want to call me,
Speaker 1: I know that blaming the media is low hanging fruit.
Speaker 1: I know that everybody does it. But you have to
Speaker 1: understand we do this for a reason, and the reason
Speaker 1: we do this is because these people are corrupt. These
Speaker 1: people are basically the propaganda communications arm of the DNC
Speaker 1: and onto the media. Like I said, they are to
Speaker 1: blame because when Democrats are in charge in this country,
Speaker 1: it is all propaganda, all the time from these people.
Speaker 1: You're not going to get any sort of real, straight
Speaker 1: down the line analysis from your MSNBC's or your CNN's
Speaker 1: or anywhere else in the world because their jobs and
Speaker 1: the way they see this is to protect democrats in
Speaker 1: the Democrat agenda. First, that comes before facts, That comes
Speaker 1: before truth, That comes before reporting what you were seeing
Speaker 1: with your own two Wise and trust me, folks. I
Speaker 1: went to Columbia University for journalism school. I worked that,
Speaker 1: I have worked at NBC News and Yeah Who News
Speaker 1: in all of these places. I know how the propaganda
Speaker 1: works from behind the scenes. But you gotta say that
Speaker 1: the propaganda that you're seeing right now, this is vastly
Speaker 1: different from when Obama was president. And the biggest difference
Speaker 1: is this, it is equally as awful. In fact, this
Speaker 1: Biden administration is probably even worse than the Obama administration.
Speaker 1: But when Obama's president, no matter what you think of
Speaker 1: the policies, this was a young, good looking dude with
Speaker 1: a nice looking family, right, So the media and the
Speaker 1: entertainment establishment was able to sell this misery with somebody
Speaker 1: that was charismatic enough to sell it. Now, compare that
Speaker 1: to this, so yes and what's a plod because they
Speaker 1: gets somewhere they need to go, oh cackling, cammy. The
Speaker 1: media propaganda wanted you to think Kamala Harris was a
Speaker 1: female Obama. They wanted you to think she was gonna
Speaker 1: come save the day for Black America and white America,
Speaker 1: and he's gonna bring us all together. Instead we got
Speaker 1: this cackling, cringe lightweight who somehow treated like she's above
Speaker 1: any criticism because she's black and female. Now, this media
Speaker 1: propaganda is also used to spread you the lie that
Speaker 1: inflation that you were saying with just poof in the
Speaker 1: thin air. I believe it's transitory, but I don't mean
Speaker 1: to suggest that these pressures will disappear in the next
Speaker 1: month or two. This is an unprecedented shock to the
Speaker 1: global economy. It's led to a huge shift into manned
Speaker 1: away from surfaces and toward goods. These people are so old,
Speaker 1: These people have been doing this for so long. These
Speaker 1: people are so deep in the bubble that they have
Speaker 1: no idea which way is up. These people do not care.
Speaker 1: And the same media propaganda that has given you somebody
Speaker 1: like Janet Yellen, who has been wrong at every major
Speaker 1: turn and is held up as some sort of authority
Speaker 1: on what's going on, these people want you to just
Speaker 1: shut up. If you have a problem with the inflation
Speaker 1: that they told you is going to be transitory. Just
Speaker 1: listen to this Washington Post reporter on of course MSNBC
Speaker 1: telling you to shut up about inflation because hey, you
Speaker 1: still got a job and food to eat. There's a
Speaker 1: great deal of Americans where it is uncomfortable that they're
Speaker 1: spending more, but they are not going to go under.
Speaker 1: You know, you got to stop complaining when there's so
Speaker 1: many people who literally the inflation rate means they may
Speaker 1: only have two meals instead of three. There are Americans
Speaker 1: who did extremely well in the last two years in
Speaker 1: the market. You still have your job, and yeah, it's
Speaker 1: costing you more for guests, but guess what, You're still
Speaker 1: gonna take that holiday, that Fourth of July vacation. You
Speaker 1: could still eat out. So I want to need you
Speaker 1: to calm down and back off because it feeds into
Speaker 1: this fear, and then this fear feeds into people making
Speaker 1: decisions that creates the very thing that they're fearful up.
Speaker 1: These people are ridiculous, These people are liars. These people
Speaker 1: have such a disdain for anybody who's managed to build
Speaker 1: and do something for themselves. It's completely crazy. So you
Speaker 1: should just stop complaining about it. But honestly, the buck
Speaker 1: stops with Biden, who's running this country as easily as
Speaker 1: he rides a bike. But seriously, I honestly believe people
Speaker 1: who voted for Biden wanted a UNI or someone who
Speaker 1: would turn the temperature in this country down. Instead, he
Speaker 1: just kind of yells at us all the time, like
Speaker 1: the angry old man that he is. I don't want
Speaker 1: to hear anymore of these lies about reckless spending. We're
Speaker 1: changing people's lives. Biden and his flax lie and lie
Speaker 1: and lie. But America is hurting. You feel it. I
Speaker 1: feel it. Everyone feels it. And that's the truth. All right.
Speaker 1: Democrat controlled cities around the country are poised to surpass
Speaker 1: twenty twenty ones murder and violent crime rates. We'll have
Speaker 1: more on that with KTT Seattle radio host Jason Rantz
Speaker 1: when we come back. Let's talk about protecting your home
Speaker 1: for a minute. You know that I'm skeptical by nature,
Speaker 1: So when I first heard about home tattle theft and
Speaker 1: the idea that thieves can literally steal your home, I
Speaker 1: was like, really, and some cyber criminal really forged my
Speaker 1: name off the tattle of my home and takeover as
Speaker 1: the new owner. Turns out, yeah, he can as rare
Speaker 1: as you'd think. According to the FBI, This crime is
Speaker 1: growing faster than credit card fraud, and you're not covered
Speaker 1: by homeowners insurance or comment at any theft programs. Home
Speaker 1: tetlelock earned my trust. Home teedlelock puts a virtual barrier
Speaker 1: around your home's title. The instant they detect anyone tampering
Speaker 1: with their homes title, they mobilize to help shut it down.
Speaker 1: Here's what I urge you to do. Number one, go
Speaker 1: to hometetlock dot com and read the testimonials from FBI
Speaker 1: agents and government officials. Number two, register your home address
Speaker 1: to see if you're already victim and don't even know it.
Speaker 1: When you protect your hometell them buck sex and send
Speaker 1: you to get my listener discount hometetlelock dot com. That's
Speaker 1: hometetlelock dot com. America may be heading for a summer
Speaker 1: of violence, as a number of major cities across the
Speaker 1: country are on track to surpass last year's rates of
Speaker 1: violent crime and homicide. According to a recent study from Foxnews,
Speaker 1: violent crime is up in the cities of Atlanta, Baltimore, Philadelphia,
Speaker 1: Los Angeles, Washington, DC, and in New York City, where
Speaker 1: it's up a staggering twenty five point eight percent. Wow.
Speaker 1: The city of Seattle, Washington, is also seeing a continued
Speaker 1: rising crime, a statistic made possible by the loss of
Speaker 1: about a quarter of its entire police department over the
Speaker 1: last two years. Let me bring in someone who knows
Speaker 1: a thing or two about this topic. Conservative talk show
Speaker 1: host on KTT in Seattle, Jason Rants, all right, no, absolutely,
Speaker 1: thanks for joining us. Look, Jason, Seattle looks a certain
Speaker 1: way to those of us who kind of just see
Speaker 1: the videos and stuff on Twitter, and we see kind
Speaker 1: of like all the insanity. But you know you live there.
Speaker 1: That's how you know. You've built such a national profile here,
Speaker 1: and so you would know how is Seattle coping with
Speaker 1: this police shortage. Well, so there's two separate issues. Number One,
Speaker 1: the city has gotten significantly cleaner than it has been
Speaker 1: in the past due to a mayor starting to take
Speaker 1: seriously this crisis. On the other hand, at the same
Speaker 1: exact time we have this increase in violence, we have
Speaker 1: an increase in non violent crime as well, and it's
Speaker 1: led in large part to permissive policies, some on the
Speaker 1: city level, some at the state level that basically say
Speaker 1: we're not going to put bad guys where they belong,
Speaker 1: which is in jail, and we have so few cops.
Speaker 1: We have just a little over eight hundred police officers. Now,
Speaker 1: two years ago that number should have been between fifteen
Speaker 1: hundred and sixteen hundred. They've now lowered their goal to
Speaker 1: about fourteen hundred, but we're still very long ways away
Speaker 1: from there, and we're very clearly not keeping up with
Speaker 1: the need because frankly, not only do we have a
Speaker 1: retention problem, but we have a recruitment problem, and ither
Speaker 1: thing is really being done that's working. Yeah, So I
Speaker 1: have a question. So these shortages that we're talking about
Speaker 1: right now now, are these things that have happened over
Speaker 1: the past couple of years. Are these things that have
Speaker 1: happened CENTERLA over the past decade. And what I'm trying
Speaker 1: to ask is how much of this stuff is directly
Speaker 1: related to all of the defund the police and sort
Speaker 1: of anti cop rhetoric we've been hearing from the left
Speaker 1: over the past couple of years. Yeah, over the course
Speaker 1: of the last two years, it's definitely accelerated. But this
Speaker 1: was a problem going into the defund movement, where they
Speaker 1: were still short staff, but nowhere near where they are now.
Speaker 1: We've lost somewhere around four hundred and fifty officers just
Speaker 1: in the last two years, and that really started to surge,
Speaker 1: this exodus around the time of the BLM movement and
Speaker 1: all of the riots that we were pretending are mostly peaceful.
Speaker 1: And then beyond that, you have, of course, the politicians
Speaker 1: who constantly are upping the rhetoric, almost as if it's
Speaker 1: a competition to see who can be the most anti cop.
Speaker 1: And when you're constantly calling cops racist, and then you
Speaker 1: have the national conversation and rhetoric around police officers, it's
Speaker 1: hard for a lot of folks to say, yeah, I
Speaker 1: want to get into this as a job or stay
Speaker 1: in this as a job. And so we saw so
Speaker 1: many people just deciding to either leave some of the
Speaker 1: big cities like Seattle, New York, LA. All of these
Speaker 1: cities have been having this problem, but others are just saying, yeah,
Speaker 1: I just don't want to do this anymore. It's not
Speaker 1: worth it all right. So, Washington State is one of
Speaker 1: several jurisdictions that has banned police from chasing criminals, which
Speaker 1: is crazy. Um. In a recently recorded nine one one call,
Speaker 1: a man actually calls the police on the police for
Speaker 1: chasing them. Take a listen, and my wifefended and the
Speaker 1: illegal Purswe the capital tend that people they're not plased
Speaker 1: to be able to change illegal they can have not
Speaker 1: changed if there's an illegal. You know, I don't mean
Speaker 1: to laugh, but it's all so crazy when you think
Speaker 1: about it. So I want to ask you how are
Speaker 1: cops on the streets in Seattle, UM dealing with these
Speaker 1: kind of restrictions. I mean, they're upset that they're saying,
Speaker 1: you are not allowing us to do our jobs. In
Speaker 1: the case of that audio that you just played, because
Speaker 1: I broke that story. When I heard that audio for
Speaker 1: the first time, I was like, oh my gosh, it's
Speaker 1: really in capital encapsulates what this problem is. Where you
Speaker 1: make these different changes to laws. They're not happening in
Speaker 1: a bubble. The criminals actually know that. And so what
Speaker 1: cops are saying now is that they're seeing the behaviors
Speaker 1: of criminals starting to change, which means they can't effectively
Speaker 1: do their jobs and or it's more dangerous for them
Speaker 1: to do their jobs. So in the case of that audio,
Speaker 1: this suspect's name is Isaac Sissel. He was accused of
Speaker 1: holding his girlfriend hostage in that car with a weapon. Thus,
Speaker 1: under the law, it's a little bit of a gray area.
Speaker 1: But the police said, actually, we can in fact chase
Speaker 1: you in this case because it's the probable cause for
Speaker 1: a violent crime, and there's some nuances with Washington state
Speaker 1: laws it relates to domestic violence. So they decided to
Speaker 1: go ahead and chase anyway. They ended up making the
Speaker 1: arrest and he's going to be charged it looks like
Speaker 1: officially and it's going to go through the process. But
Speaker 1: you know, there are criminals who are very clearly taking
Speaker 1: advantage of the law as is written. That's why we're
Speaker 1: seeing a ten thousand percent increase in catalytic converter theps
Speaker 1: in the state of Washington since twenty nineteen. If you
Speaker 1: can commit a crime very quickly, get in your car
Speaker 1: and just drive away, you don't even have to speed away.
Speaker 1: Police cannot chase you. The only way that they can
Speaker 1: chase you is if there is amongst a few examples
Speaker 1: of probable cause for a violent crime. So I'm gonna
Speaker 1: have to this very high bar. So I'm going to
Speaker 1: ask you this a quick one and then a little
Speaker 1: bit along one quickly. This defund the police rhetoric and
Speaker 1: all that stuff. Now we know that this is coming
Speaker 1: from the clowns on the national stage, right because it
Speaker 1: helps them get Twitter followers and raise money and all
Speaker 1: that other stuff. How much of this stuff is coming
Speaker 1: from the local politicians on the ground. Well, actually, Seattle
Speaker 1: is one of those exceptions to what you just said.
Speaker 1: There are a lot of folks on the ground, activists
Speaker 1: and and in the Seattle City Council who were pushing
Speaker 1: very hard to defund the police, and they created a
Speaker 1: whole bunch of problems along the way, as we've seen
Speaker 1: not just here but across the country. When you defund
Speaker 1: the police, Hey, gus, what crime surges? So we actually
Speaker 1: did have It's still i think a minority voice as
Speaker 1: far as the general population, but they were pushing and
Speaker 1: they saw some significant wins as far as their agenda goes. Interesting,
Speaker 1: all right, So recently San Francisco, DA, Tessa Boudine was
Speaker 1: recalled in La County, DA. George Gascon is facing a
Speaker 1: similar effort. Do you think the pendulum is swinging back
Speaker 1: toward a tougher stance on crime in the cities, Like,
Speaker 1: do you think that the people that live in these
Speaker 1: cities are just getting tired of the rhetoric because it's
Speaker 1: making their streets so much more dangerous. Yeah, the question
Speaker 1: is whether or not you're seeing this regional momentum, which
Speaker 1: very clearly is happening. I mean San Francisco, that's progressives.
Speaker 1: I know that Chessa Boudin wanted to pretend that it
Speaker 1: was all this conservatives who are doing Conservatives clearly were
Speaker 1: not responsible for what happened with the recall because there
Speaker 1: are very few in San Francisco. So from a regional
Speaker 1: perspective or a local perspective, you're seeing it, especially in
Speaker 1: San Francisco. The question is will that extend nationwide? And
Speaker 1: I don't know the answer to that yet, because there
Speaker 1: are two issues that you have to compete with. Number One,
Speaker 1: the George Gascon recall is significant. This has been the
Speaker 1: general campaign that the national media has paid the most
Speaker 1: attention to. Yeah, they talked about Jessibudine, but it was
Speaker 1: really always about George Gascon. He's got a much bigger
Speaker 1: name recognition. If that fails, I fear that the momentum,
Speaker 1: at least from the media framing of it, is going
Speaker 1: to shift towards the negative. Because we're putting so much
Speaker 1: pressure on voters delivering in Los Angeles County because George
Speaker 1: Gascon and what he stands for. Beyond that, let's say
Speaker 1: the momentum continues to stay in this direction, which I
Speaker 1: certainly hope it does. Just because you recall George Gascon
Speaker 1: doesn't mean you got rid of some of the judges
Speaker 1: who have gone very easy on criminals. Just because you
Speaker 1: win a couple of elections on a council level doesn't
Speaker 1: mean that you've shifted all of the power dynamics to
Speaker 1: the side that doesn't want to be found or doesn't
Speaker 1: want to go light on crime. So we're not going
Speaker 1: to see a shift take place overnight, at least publicly
Speaker 1: that the voters might not experience that. And I just
Speaker 1: I caution folks to understand it takes time. You Democrats
Speaker 1: talk about institutionalizing things, well, they've institutionalized all these laws
Speaker 1: and policies and that's not easy to undo. So we
Speaker 1: just got to make sure that we're sticking with the
Speaker 1: momentum even after some wins, because the change doesn't happen overnight.
Speaker 1: All right. Always always a pleasure, always very informative. Jason
Speaker 1: Rands from Seattle, thank you very much for joining us.
Speaker 1: Thank you. I appreciate it all right. Pride Month is
Speaker 1: generating a lot more controversy this year as videos like
Speaker 1: drag shows that include children go viral. We'll take a
Speaker 1: closer look at that with the President of the log
Speaker 1: cabin Republicans, Charles Moran when we come back at first,
Speaker 1: I want to talk you about protecting your online data.

Speaker 1: Hold the line. Oh it's that time a year again,
Speaker 1: the rainbow explosion. Yes, it is Pride month now, the
Speaker 1: annual time that the LGBTQI AK plus plus Yes that's
Speaker 1: a real acronym sort of spreads their joy all over
Speaker 1: the world. But look over the past several years it
Speaker 1: has become especially controversial. Editor has moved away from a
Speaker 1: message of love and acceptance to now sexualizing young kids.
Speaker 1: In the past few weeks, outrage has poured out from
Speaker 1: Pride events held across the country and Dallas, an event
Speaker 1: called Dragged the Kids to Pride had young children handing
Speaker 1: money to twerking drag queens with bright neon lights, saying quote,
Speaker 1: it's not going to lick itself. And in San Francisco,
Speaker 1: a middle school held a drag show with a crowd
Speaker 1: of students cheering on for the performer. So as sexualizing
Speaker 1: young kids the right response and message Pride months should
Speaker 1: be pushing. Well, let's ask the president of the log
Speaker 1: Cabin Republicans, America's oldest LGBT organization for Republicans, Charles Moran. Charles,
Speaker 1: thank you so much for joining, Thanks for having me on.
Speaker 1: I think you forgot two and an S somewhere in there.
Speaker 1: We're Alpha ne Americ. Now we're not just the letters. Yes,
Speaker 1: it's the two S S plus Kia, two Spirited everything else.
Speaker 1: So look, Charles, it seems like this has all gotten
Speaker 1: a little crazy over the past couple of years. What
Speaker 1: is your thoughts on the overall craziness of what we're saying?
Speaker 1: And then this kid that drag show staying well, Rob.
Speaker 1: I think it's really important that we're having this conversation
Speaker 1: this month, and I think one of the things that
Speaker 1: Americans are realizing is that this has gone from a
Speaker 1: month of visibility to a month of woke corporate advertising
Speaker 1: and just has gone way too far over the line.
Speaker 1: It's I don't think that LGBT visibility has any problem
Speaker 1: in society today in America. We definitely are having struggles
Speaker 1: in other parts of the country and of excuse me,
Speaker 1: the world where it's still illegal gay in sixty eight
Speaker 1: countries and we're in some way, shape or form, eight
Speaker 1: of them you can be executed for. And we're doing
Speaker 1: work to bring attention to that. But here in America,
Speaker 1: you can't walk down the street without a rainbow bat
Speaker 1: lacking you in the face, and you know, having the
Speaker 1: this woke corporate mentality that really isn't authentic. And I
Speaker 1: think that Americans are waking up and seeing like we
Speaker 1: have moved beyond this issue of victimhood. And that's one
Speaker 1: of the things that you know, I think America and
Speaker 1: Republican leadership over the last couple of years is you know,
Speaker 1: we've moved beyond the era of victimhood. Liberals and the
Speaker 1: left love to put people in their box whether or
Speaker 1: not you're black, or you're brown, or you're gay, or
Speaker 1: Asian or Latino or Jewish or whatever. If you're not
Speaker 1: a victim, you're of no use to the Democrats. And
Speaker 1: I think you're literally of no use to them. And
Speaker 1: you said something very interesting that I want to make
Speaker 1: a point it because you mentioned the places all over
Speaker 1: the world where you can still be executed for being gay, right,
Speaker 1: and so when you look at all of these corporations,
Speaker 1: they sort of change their logos to the Pride month
Speaker 1: flags on Twitter right here. But when you look at
Speaker 1: the Middle East branch of all of these corporations, those
Speaker 1: logos they write the same, right Yeah, Mercedes, Benz, BMW, Cisco, Oracle,
Speaker 1: a lot of like these multinational corporations, pharma companies, whatever. Um.
Speaker 1: It's funny how they'll and even you know, we saw
Speaker 1: with the Disney mess, you know, with them coming out
Speaker 1: and trashing round Santis and you know we stood up
Speaker 1: very round Santis um. You know. But at the same time,
Speaker 1: Disney was still taking their cruise ships to countries in
Speaker 1: the in the Caribbean that we're that still um like
Speaker 1: criminalized homosexuality. It's just so blatant that the hypocrisy is
Speaker 1: just to line their pockets with those pink dollars or
Speaker 1: stand up for it anymore. Of course, And it's so
Speaker 1: funny that you bring up Disney, Okay, it so obviously
Speaker 1: then don't say a gay slur against you know, Rhonda
Speaker 1: Santis and the Parental Rights and Education Act that he
Speaker 1: passed in Florida. Of course, that don't say gay thing
Speaker 1: was a complete lie, right, and the left doesn't. The
Speaker 1: thing about this is and I said this earlier today
Speaker 1: in my opening sort of manifesto, the left lies and
Speaker 1: lies and lies, then they take a date breath, and
Speaker 1: then they lie some more. And it's very interesting that
Speaker 1: you bring up Disney, because now you know, the Lightyear
Speaker 1: movie that came out over the past weekend underperformed, some
Speaker 1: would say it flopped. These people in Disney put a
Speaker 1: lesbian kiss into that movie that nobody wanted, nobody asked for.
Speaker 1: Apparently they put it in the deleted it, then put
Speaker 1: it in again, then tried to, you know, have a
Speaker 1: pr blitz about it. Apparently there's something about this that
Speaker 1: is turning off parents, and I think it's the push
Speaker 1: of all of this stuff on kids. And speaking of which,
Speaker 1: so the Oklahoma Pride Alliance has a flyer and don't
Speaker 1: put this up on the screen and it says this
Speaker 1: calling all musicians, drag artists, dancers and talent ages thirteen
Speaker 1: to twenty. Oklahoma Pride Alliance Youth is currently accepting applications
Speaker 1: for performers. Don't miss your chance to perform at Pride Fest. Look,
Speaker 1: I don't know when sort of indoctrinating kids and putting
Speaker 1: all of this stuff in and bringing like child drag
Speaker 1: beans and all that stuff. I don't know when that started,
Speaker 1: but it needs to end now. And so Charles with
Speaker 1: you and the Lockhabn Republicans. So what are you doing
Speaker 1: to sort of get the word out that there are
Speaker 1: gays and lesbians in this country that do not want this. Well,
Speaker 1: one of the first things is being vocal invisible about it.
Speaker 1: And it's very obviously to break through the mainstream media narrative.
Speaker 1: When Chaston Buddha Judge got on TV and started trashing
Speaker 1: the parental rights backed in Florida with Governor Stantis Lockhabn,
Speaker 1: Republicans jumped right in and I got on TV and
Speaker 1: imediately and called them a liar. When you see will
Speaker 1: corporate media continuing to push this, it's part of a
Speaker 1: larger narrative that I see, and it's it's a lot
Speaker 1: of people see it, and it's born out of the
Speaker 1: identification of critical race theory. But it's this destruction of
Speaker 1: cultural morays in Western society that the left and Marxists
Speaker 1: really deem is being an impediment to their takeover of
Speaker 1: Western civilization. They've taken down religion, they're trying to take
Speaker 1: down race. Now they're trying to take down gender, and
Speaker 1: they're using things like schools, the entertainment industry, will corporations
Speaker 1: as an attempt to just blur the lines that gender
Speaker 1: doesn't matter in society. And we all know I mean
Speaker 1: and me is a firm art and gay man that
Speaker 1: gender has an absolute construct and it's had an important
Speaker 1: construct in Western society. And the left, just as they've
Speaker 1: tried to tear down race, they've tried to weaponize religion,
Speaker 1: they've tried to weaponize our history. Now they're wept trying
Speaker 1: to weaponize gender. And it's it's partner this march on
Speaker 1: the left to remove these types of cultural morays that
Speaker 1: are so important. And gay conservatives are standing up and
Speaker 1: saying enough is enough. This is not LGBT equality, This
Speaker 1: is woke, radical gender ideology. This is not the same
Speaker 1: as as as as pride, it's not the same as equality,
Speaker 1: and under no circumstances should this be misconstrued. And somebody
Speaker 1: has to stand up and say it, and we are
Speaker 1: and so are moms and dads and parents across the country.
Speaker 1: There are supportive of LGBT equality, but they are not
Speaker 1: going to go down this road of a radical gender
Speaker 1: redefinition and society absolutely. And so let me ask you this,
Speaker 1: what do you say to some conservatives that you know,
Speaker 1: maybe watching this right now, that say they need to
Speaker 1: get rid of pride altogether. I don't care if you
Speaker 1: clean it up. I don't care if you take the
Speaker 1: kids out of it. There is no space for this
Speaker 1: at all. So what do you say to them? You know,
Speaker 1: people can have their moment to celebrate whatever they want.
Speaker 1: You know, here in New York where I am for
Speaker 1: the next few days, you know, that was the birth
Speaker 1: of Stonewall in places life loss as we had the
Speaker 1: Black Cat UM. The birth of the of the real
Speaker 1: gay civil rights movement with political work was the Briggs
Speaker 1: Initiative in California and then Governor Ronald Reagan was heavily
Speaker 1: involved with that UM, you know, to to help gays
Speaker 1: come out of the closet as conservatives UM. And there
Speaker 1: is a there is a component where we can you know,
Speaker 1: be proud of who we are, of our accomplishments as
Speaker 1: a community and how we take care of one another.
Speaker 1: It doesn't all have to be drag shows and camp
Speaker 1: and you know, we have built a real community. And
Speaker 1: you know, Rob, you're part of our conservative UM community
Speaker 1: as well. Like we take care of one another, we
Speaker 1: look out for one another. And that's if we go
Speaker 1: back to de Toqueville and the founding of America where
Speaker 1: we have groups of people who have a similar shared interest,
Speaker 1: where we do communities us, where we're looking out for
Speaker 1: one another. A lot of us are single, may not
Speaker 1: ever have kids. We've got to be there for another
Speaker 1: And there's a lot of positive ways that pride can
Speaker 1: manifest itself, senior housing, healthcare for one another, making sure
Speaker 1: that we're there to look after one another so the
Speaker 1: government doesn't have to do it. So there is really
Speaker 1: an opportunity for pride to be used as something constructive
Speaker 1: for our community. But what we're seeing right now is
Speaker 1: a marketing show that just can't really be put in
Speaker 1: any kind of positive frame whatsoever. It's just destructive, all right.
Speaker 1: President of the log Cabin Republicans, Charles Moran, always spicy,
Speaker 1: Thank you so much for joining, Thank you all right.
Speaker 1: A major victory for Second Amendment advocates today as a
Speaker 1: Supreme Court strikes down New York's arbitrary limits on concealed
Speaker 1: carry permits. The host of counter Culture on the Epic Times,
Speaker 1: Danielle de Suza, joins us next to give her tay
Speaker 1: stay with us. Each morning, the President of the United
Speaker 1: States receives a highly classified briefing on the most important
Speaker 1: issues facing the country. It's called the President's Daily Brief,
Speaker 1: or PDB. It's delivered by America's spies and analysts. Well,
Speaker 1: now you can hear your very own PDB in the
Speaker 1: form of a podcast hosted by me Brian Dean Wright,
Speaker 1: a former CIA operations officer. Each morning at six am Eastern,
Speaker 1: I'll bring you fifteen to twenty minutes of the most
Speaker 1: important issues facing the country, giving you the critical intelligence
Speaker 1: and analysis you need to start your morning. We the President, myself,
Speaker 1: many of us are deeply concerned and troubled by the
Speaker 1: Supreme Court's ruling today. It I believe defies common sense
Speaker 1: and the Constitution of the United States. Vice President Kamala
Speaker 1: Harris deeply concerned and unhappy about the scotus ruling this
Speaker 1: morning on concealed carry permits in New York. But this
Speaker 1: is a huge win for supporters of the Second Amendment.
Speaker 1: As scotus Blog reported this morning, the Supreme Court strikes
Speaker 1: down a New York gun control law that required people
Speaker 1: to show quote proper cause to get a license to
Speaker 1: carry a concealed handgun outside the home. The vote is
Speaker 1: sixty three. Joining me now to discuss is Danielle de Susa,
Speaker 1: host of Counterculture with Danielle de Susa. Thank you so
Speaker 1: much for joining me. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts
Speaker 1: on this. Hi, Rob, thanks so much for having me.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think what's so crazy about this is
Speaker 1: Kaplin Harris. She is no legal scholar. She literally clearly
Speaker 1: has not read the Constitution, has not read the Second
Speaker 1: Amendment to see that our rights shall not be infringed. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's very interesting about that. And so when you look
Speaker 1: at all the conversation that's happening on social media today,
Speaker 1: because you know, I follow people on the right and
Speaker 1: the left, it's really interesting and important to follow people
Speaker 1: on the left because they have to see just how
Speaker 1: uninformed they are. But literally, people are saying that it's
Speaker 1: so cool that, you know, this is sarcasm that the
Speaker 1: Supreme Court just struck down the law to about you know,
Speaker 1: the right to the Supreme Court just struck down this
Speaker 1: concealed carry thing for New York. While they're about to
Speaker 1: strike down the right of women to have an abortion,
Speaker 1: you have to make the note that abortion is not
Speaker 1: in the constitution. These people have no idea what's in
Speaker 1: the constitution. But let me go to this. So Justice
Speaker 1: Stephen Bryer issued a statement on the new ruling, saying that, quote,
Speaker 1: only by ignoring an abundance of historical evidence supporting regulations
Speaker 1: restricting the public carriage of firearms can the Court conclude
Speaker 1: that New York's law is not quote, consistent with the
Speaker 1: nation's historical tradition of firearm regulation. That is what comes
Speaker 1: when you actually read the Constitution, when you actually know
Speaker 1: what's in there. So, Danielle, question to you is why
Speaker 1: is the left so high up on this horse? Like,
Speaker 1: why is this the hill that they are so ready
Speaker 1: and willing to not only die on, but to show
Speaker 1: their complete ignorance about. Yeah. Well, I think the timing
Speaker 1: of this was probably just really a gut punch for
Speaker 1: them because they were so ready to pass these restrictions
Speaker 1: in the Senate. I think they felt really good about themselves,
Speaker 1: They felt like they were on a great role, and
Speaker 1: then they realized, oh wait, no, actually, even if we
Speaker 1: have something, it could get struck down by the Supreme Court,
Speaker 1: or it wouldn't even be constitutional. Clearly. But I think
Speaker 1: i'd have to go to Clarence Thomas with what he said.
Speaker 1: He basically wrote that the Second Amendment is not an
Speaker 1: inferior amendment. So some people try to think, oh, well,
Speaker 1: you know, maybe the First Amendment for a speech or
Speaker 1: due process, all of these other things, they are more
Speaker 1: important than the Second Amendment is one that we can
Speaker 1: just keep chipping away at, and every time there's a
Speaker 1: school shooting or whatever happens, let's just keep chipping away
Speaker 1: at this. But it truly is an amendment, and it
Speaker 1: has the same pity and tenacity as all of the
Speaker 1: other amendments, and so I think we have to protect
Speaker 1: it because we don't need to explain why we have
Speaker 1: this right. That right is already there, and if we
Speaker 1: want to exercise that right, that is our right. So
Speaker 1: New York was taking away one of our fundamental rights.
Speaker 1: And that's very interesting. In speaking of New York again,
Speaker 1: So Democratic Governor Kathy Hokel of New York is of
Speaker 1: course unhappy about the decision. In her response, and I
Speaker 1: want you to watch this. It really speaks to a
Speaker 1: lack of common sense that has always coming from the
Speaker 1: left about this issue. So watch her reaction to the
Speaker 1: news from the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court of the
Speaker 1: United States of America has stripped away the State of
Speaker 1: New York's right and responsibility to protect its citizens with
Speaker 1: a decision which we are still digesting, which is frightful
Speaker 1: in its scope of how they are setting back this
Speaker 1: nation in our ability to protect our citizens, back the
Speaker 1: days of our founding fathers. So, I, look, I'm not
Speaker 1: some Second Amendment sort of like scholar. I am very
Speaker 1: much pro to A. Look, I'm a veteran, I was
Speaker 1: in the military. I believe in Americans fundamental rights to
Speaker 1: protect themselves. Right. You got a black guy and a
Speaker 1: woman over here talking that are both very pro to A.
Speaker 1: But the thing that irritates me the most about what
Speaker 1: Kathy Hulk was saying is that it is divorced from
Speaker 1: common sense. So what she is trying to tell these
Speaker 1: people that she is lying to is that this law
Speaker 1: is going to make the streets more dangerous because it
Speaker 1: is allowing or it is going to make it harder
Speaker 1: for them to protect themselves, which is completely ridiculous, right,
Speaker 1: And so they are lying to their people for what reason.
Speaker 1: I am very curious as to what your thoughts on
Speaker 1: this are, Yeah, it's completely ridiculous, And I guess I
Speaker 1: would just want to point out first that even when
Speaker 1: she's holding up those papers, it's clear she hasn't even
Speaker 1: actually read the decision. She's basically saying, Wow, this is
Speaker 1: so long, this is so much work. I actually don't
Speaker 1: even know what's in these documents other than the fact
Speaker 1: that I know I'm against it. I know it's setting
Speaker 1: us back in history. And I feel like the left,
Speaker 1: you know, they always say that they always act like
Speaker 1: anything they want is going to push us forward, that's progress,
Speaker 1: but anything that the conservatives want is setting us back
Speaker 1: in time. Well, I would say this is actually huge
Speaker 1: progress because now you know, women in New York, like
Speaker 1: myself can protect themselves if we are walking around on
Speaker 1: the street. And I'm sure she's noticed and others have
Speaker 1: noticed that it's not a safe place. The city has
Speaker 1: taken a clear downward spiral with homelessness and crime, and
Speaker 1: unfortunately the police are not always there next to you
Speaker 1: to jump in and help you, and so sometimes you
Speaker 1: have to be ready for those things. But again, we
Speaker 1: don't even need to justify ourselves in this because it's
Speaker 1: our right. But Sadly, I do think many people who
Speaker 1: live in Democrat areas and live in cities probably will
Speaker 1: actually need to be using this more than if you
Speaker 1: live somewhere else where you might be surrounded by more
Speaker 1: people who are carrying here. Unfortunately, that's pretty unlikely. It's
Speaker 1: basically been impossible to get this concealed carry license, even
Speaker 1: if you explained all these things. Here are death threats,
Speaker 1: here are reasons why I need this. Yeah, good luck.
Speaker 1: I mean, you probably weren't going to get it unless
Speaker 1: you're literally Caffy hokel and you are some person who
Speaker 1: has you know, secret service level kind of release around
Speaker 1: you all the time. They always have armed security. They
Speaker 1: always in speaking of which, and I think I got
Speaker 1: time to go to one more here. This is the
Speaker 1: View's Whoopie Goldberg, and she is saying this, by the way,
Speaker 1: from a protected set at ABC Studios right on the
Speaker 1: Upper West side of New York City. This is heard
Speaker 1: declaring the new concealed carry law insane. We have been
Speaker 1: trying to figure out how to get a handle on
Speaker 1: all that has been going on in this city, in
Speaker 1: particular with gun laws, and it makes you wonder, what
Speaker 1: does this mean? We saying to me, well, yes you can. Yeah.
Speaker 1: That's the thing about it is is that And what
Speaker 1: I love about the view is that it is literally
Speaker 1: be dumbish on television. These people are so misinformed and
Speaker 1: uninformed about everything that they opine on. But this is
Speaker 1: the case of a New York City liberal that has
Speaker 1: protection everywhere she goes, from the car service to the
Speaker 1: armed guards that are protecting the set, declaring you're an eye.
Speaker 1: Regular citizens are our ability to protect ourselves completely insane.
Speaker 1: We are short on time, so I'm gonna let you go,
Speaker 1: but thank you so much. Danielle Desuza, host of Counterculture
Speaker 1: with Danielle de SUSA to join me to talk about
Speaker 1: this very important issue. Thanks Rob. All Right, Americans are
Speaker 1: feeling a major economic pinch between inflation and high gas prices,
Speaker 1: but don't worry. The White House has a plan to
Speaker 1: save you eighteen whole since we've got the video that
Speaker 1: in tonight's Quick Hits, stay right there, Congressman Eric Swalwell
Speaker 1: makes up a doozy of the story and Biden gets
Speaker 1: tongue tied yet again. Oh my god, I mean, so
Speaker 1: what else is new? Those stories in tonight's Quick Hits
Speaker 1: let's get to it. Eric Swawell is tweeting stories again.
Speaker 1: He loves telling. His story is probably some of the
Speaker 1: same stories he told Fang Fang in bed that Chinese spy.
Speaker 1: But that's neither here nor there. This is what he
Speaker 1: said in a tweet. He said this today. I gave
Speaker 1: a tour in the Capitol and was stopped by a
Speaker 1: father with his young boy. The father yelled at me,
Speaker 1: Hey Swalwell, and then told his son that Swalwell, he's trouble.
Speaker 1: He doesn't back Trump. I kept walking and felt sad
Speaker 1: for the boy. He's being raised in a cult family.
Speaker 1: Oh that Eric Swalwell. He is such a stand up guy.
Speaker 1: He is such a proud American. He is such a
Speaker 1: good American that he was duped into having an affair
Speaker 1: with a Chinese spy. And what kills me about the
Speaker 1: left folks. What kills me about the people these leftist
Speaker 1: Democrat politicians is that these people know that they are
Speaker 1: so deeply protected by the Democrats in the mainstream media
Speaker 1: and that entire infrastructure, that they can walk around with
Speaker 1: their noses held up high at people that voted for
Speaker 1: Donald Trump, knowing like Eric Swawell does that he literally
Speaker 1: had an affair with a Chinese spy, okay, And so
Speaker 1: these people pretend that these things don't exist while they
Speaker 1: look down on Trump voters. So instead of you know,
Speaker 1: figuring out what was going on with China, instead of
Speaker 1: maybe investigating this woman that conned her way into his bed,
Speaker 1: he spends all of his time trying to demonize people
Speaker 1: that voted for Trump. And don't think that this just
Speaker 1: is about Donald Trump. It'll be about Donald Trump, It'll
Speaker 1: be about Rhonda Santis, it'll be about any other Republican
Speaker 1: because all of these people, All that these people do
Speaker 1: is demonize the other side. Speaking of demonizing the other side,
Speaker 1: that is pretty much all that Joe Biden does. But
Speaker 1: now Biden, oh, he has got another tongue twister for
Speaker 1: us again. He is creating words right now. Look at this.
Speaker 1: America is a nation that can be defined in a
Speaker 1: single word. I can define Biden in a single word,
Speaker 1: and that word is embarrassing, you know. And the thing
Speaker 1: about this is people is this. There are people that
Speaker 1: actually voted for Joe Biden. There's some of them out there,
Speaker 1: you know. Apparently maybe some of them are even watching
Speaker 1: right now. Apparently you have been red pilled by all
Speaker 1: of the nonsense that you've been seeing. You've come over
Speaker 1: to the dark side. If that is you, I would
Speaker 1: say welcome. But here's the thing that really irritates me.
Speaker 1: We are not allowed to talk about the fact that
Speaker 1: Joe Biden is frail and weak and weird. We're not
Speaker 1: allowed to talk about the fact that the oldest president
Speaker 1: in United States history regularly does this. The guy falls
Speaker 1: off the bike, guy trips up, he trips up the
Speaker 1: Air Force one. He does all of these things. And
Speaker 1: let me tell you this, if Trump had messed up
Speaker 1: in front of so many cameras in this way all
Speaker 1: the time, you would see weeks and weeks and weeks
Speaker 1: of media coverage. It would literally be NonStop with these
Speaker 1: people sort of talking about how unfit for office he is.
Speaker 1: But we don't see that with Joe Biden because we
Speaker 1: have an entire infrastructure that is covering for him. It
Speaker 1: is ridiculous and it is un American. Speaking of which,
Speaker 1: Karen Jean Pierre, the Biden administrations liar in chief, as
Speaker 1: I said earlier, tells you she is lying to you,
Speaker 1: or she's telling you that saving just a little bit
Speaker 1: of money on your gas will go a long way.
Speaker 1: He sees this as an opportunity to a straightforward, simple
Speaker 1: way to deal with the pain that the American people
Speaker 1: is dealing with, giving them some relief at the That's
Speaker 1: what we're talking about. It's straightforward, it's simple. The President
Speaker 1: would like Congress to act. We're talking about, you know,
Speaker 1: eighteen cents per gallon, which is going to go a
Speaker 1: long way. If you look at the average of states
Speaker 1: as thirty cents. Just looking at those two things, that's
Speaker 1: almost fifty cents. That's going to go a long way
Speaker 1: for three months. That's it. Three months. That's a if.
Speaker 1: But yeah, absolutely, but we're going to continue to work
Speaker 1: hard and to to get the American public some really
Speaker 1: wow that eighteen cents, while it's gonna go a very
Speaker 1: long way. You know, you add that to what was
Speaker 1: it that they that they saved us at the fourth
Speaker 1: of July in twenty twenty one, was like sixteen cents.
Speaker 1: While you put that all together, you may have enough
Speaker 1: for a hot dog. These people are ridiculous. You have
Speaker 1: to understand that they say these things because they live
Speaker 1: in the bubble that they never get out of. Well,
Speaker 1: look that is all the time we have for tonight
Speaker 1: the No Spin News Bill Riley is coming up next.
Speaker 1: As my good friend Buck would say, she'll tie
