We've 6 00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:24,680 Speaker 1: got a lot to discuss with all of you. I 7 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:27,680 Speaker 1: am down in the great state of Florida. Buck is 8 00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:32,240 Speaker 1: in New York City, and I am breaking news here 9 00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:36,000 Speaker 1: right off the top. I was stunned beyond belief. Buck 10 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:40,599 Speaker 1: Sexton has already filled out an NC Double A tournament bracket, 11 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:43,440 Speaker 1: the first bracket that you have filled out of your life. 12 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:47,879 Speaker 1: I mean, this is unprecedented even for bracket people. Almost 13 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:50,479 Speaker 1: no one has got their bracket done by noon Eastern 14 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 1: on Monday. So you are like totally ahead of the 15 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,440 Speaker 1: curve right now. All I gotta say, Clay is Villanova 16 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 1: for the win, the big one baby going all the way, 17 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:05,840 Speaker 1: Jay Wrights, Villanovoa Wildcats. I will fill out my bracket 18 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 1: in the near future. But Buck, there's so much craziness 19 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 1: going on in everywhere, it feels like, but New York City. 20 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,959 Speaker 1: The Fiser CEO is out talking about how there needs 21 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: to be another shot, a fourth shot Ukraine. We will 22 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:27,959 Speaker 1: discuss the latest on the Biden and Kamala continuing slow 23 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 1: motion implosion for the country. But Buck in New York 24 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 1: City over the weekend, and I know not everyone is 25 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:39,760 Speaker 1: paying attention to this story, but to me it epitomizes 26 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 1: the absurdity of ongoing COVID restrictions. New York City has lifted, 27 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 1: along with many other cities, a substantial portion of their 28 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 1: overall COVID restrictions, but workplace COVID restrictions remain in place. 29 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: There are lots of people who want to work all 30 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 1: over the country that haven't gotten a COVID shot and 31 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 1: so aren't allowed to do so. And one of those 32 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 1: people is Kyrie Irving, who is a multi millionaire pro 33 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 1: basketball player for the New York Nets, plays his games 34 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 1: in Brooklyn. Buck. On Saturday, I was texting you about 35 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 1: this because I was like, I bet Buck hasn't seen 36 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:21,079 Speaker 1: this Barclay Center, brand new spectacular arena in Brooklyn. They 37 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 1: had the ACC championship game between Duke and Virginia Tech. 38 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,960 Speaker 1: Kyrie Irving went to Duke, so he went to the 39 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 1: basketball game set courtside on Sunday, Buck, he went your 40 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:35,679 Speaker 1: old team that used to watch when you were a kid. 41 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: The Knicks were playing against the Nets. Kyrie Irving showed 42 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: up set courtside, no mask, drink drinks, had food, visited 43 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: with his teammates. He could high five them. Buck. He 44 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 1: is not eligible to play in basketball games in the 45 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 1: NBA because of New York City's restrictions, but he is 46 00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:00,519 Speaker 1: eligible to sit courtside to high five his teammates, to 47 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 1: interact with anybody in the crowd that he wants, to 48 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 1: go into the locker room at halftime and interact with 49 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 1: his teammates. I'm not making any of this up. This 50 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 1: is really going on. Is this not a perfect approximation 51 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 1: personification of the absurdity of COVID rules that still exist 52 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 1: in our nation's biggest city, New York. It's because you 53 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 1: don't comply, they want to punish you. It's no longer 54 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 1: about health unless someone believes that Kyrie Irving is more 55 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 1: dangerous to people on the court than he is sitting 56 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 1: next to them off the court from a virus perspective, 57 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 1: which no one actually argues. I mean, that's that's even 58 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 1: beyond what I think Fauci where's Frouchi by the way, 59 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: still totally absent. You know, it's like a honey I 60 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 1: shrunk the kids situation. Is he stuck in a dandelion somewhere? 61 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 1: Is he flying on the back of a honeybee. I 62 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: don't know what's going on here, but Faucci is m Ia. 63 00:03:56,760 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: But back to Kyrie Irving and the whole circumstance right now, 64 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 1: Clay of where you know, the cases are way down. 65 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 1: Everything else it's all still lingering in the background everywhere. 66 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 1: They're not letting it go away. They're not letting it 67 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: go away. It's still on the plane there. This is 68 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 1: now their version of the new normal is the moment democrats, 69 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 1: either at the city, state or federal level, if they 70 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 1: have the presidency, decide that it's time for you to 71 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:24,239 Speaker 1: mask up and obey and shut your mouth. Obviously behind 72 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: the mask it's going to happen again. The fact that 73 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 1: the CEO of fiser Borla has come out and said, 74 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,919 Speaker 1: we need to listen, we need this, we need the 75 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 1: fourth shot. Here you go, you've seen some of that 76 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: data on a fourth dose, a second booster shot. You 77 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:45,119 Speaker 1: think it will be necessary. It is necessary right now? 78 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: The protection what they're getting from the third It is 79 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 1: good enough, actually quite good for hospitalizations and deaths. It's 80 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 1: not that good against affections but doesn't last very long. 81 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: It's not that good against stopping infection, which was the 82 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 1: whole purpose, understand, which is what a vaccine typically does, 83 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 1: let's be honest, right, Yeah, And that was also how 84 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,280 Speaker 1: they justified all the mandates. That was why they made 85 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:11,159 Speaker 1: me get. They made me get so I could go 86 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: buy a cup of coffee in my home city a 87 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 1: shot that four months later they were like, well that 88 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 1: shot doesn't do a damn thing, so you better I mean, 89 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: completely worthless, totally worthless. But it wasn't MR and a technology, 90 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,920 Speaker 1: so I got that going for me, which is nice. 91 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 1: I got the old school one, which was worthless though, 92 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,720 Speaker 1: and even the CEO. I'm just wondering now, if you 93 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 1: say on social media, and remember sometimes they sometimes they 94 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 1: are following you and you're already on the radar, or 95 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: the algorithm grabs you sometimes it doesn't depends. But if 96 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 1: someone says on social media that the Fiser vaccine doesn't 97 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 1: work for very well and doesn't work for very long, 98 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,040 Speaker 1: which is what the CEO of Fiser is now saying, 99 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,280 Speaker 1: as you said, you get a fourth shot. Are you 100 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 1: still slapped down? Are you still chastened? Do you get 101 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 1: you get a wrong information warning? Do you get slapped 102 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 1: as we have been on Spotify with go get more 103 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 1: information on COVID, Yeah, go get truthful information about COVID 104 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:12,279 Speaker 1: from the Clay and Buck show, idiots at you know, 105 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: all these platforms that are doing this stuff. It's outrageous. 106 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 1: How many people do you think? And by the way, 107 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,600 Speaker 1: I want to mention this on the Kyrie Irving thing, 108 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,839 Speaker 1: proving how even more ridiculous it is from New York Buck. 109 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,840 Speaker 1: If he wasn't living in New York, if he was 110 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 1: a visiting player unvaccinated, he'd be able to play. That's 111 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:34,719 Speaker 1: the other ridiculous part of this. So he's able to 112 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: go to the games, he's able to sit courtside, he 113 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 1: can't play because he's from New York City. But if 114 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:44,160 Speaker 1: he were a visiting player traveling in to play against 115 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,239 Speaker 1: the Nets or the Knicks under New York City rules, 116 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 1: he would be eligible to play. You're you're stuck in 117 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 1: a cosgask situation in some of these cities where somehow 118 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 1: there are rules you are forced to obey that makes 119 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 1: sense to know one and that no person will defend, 120 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 1: but that you are still expected to obey because the system, 121 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: or as I've been saying, the apparatus, doesn't want to change, 122 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: doesn't want to admit that it was wrong. It only 123 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: moves at the speed that it decides. And it's very 124 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 1: hard to have accountability. I mean, really, the way the 125 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: Democrats got away with this for so long was that 126 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 1: you had the political class Biden, Pelosi, etc. Who or 127 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 1: at the state levels the same thing in places like 128 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 1: New York and California. But they would say, we're not 129 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: making the decisions, it's the health experts, And the health 130 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 1: experts would say, we're not making the decisions. It's actually 131 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 1: the politicians that implement this stuff. So who do you 132 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: go to to complain? I mean, in New York City, 133 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 1: who does I'm sure if you talk to the mayor, 134 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 1: he'd say, oh, I just listen to my science advisors. 135 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 1: If you go complain to the science advisors, they'll say, oh, 136 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 1: we're just doing We're just giving an advisor to the mayor. 137 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: And this is how you have rules in place that 138 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 1: are still so stupid that no person with a brain 139 00:07:56,200 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 1: more functional than an old rusty nail thinks this makes sense. 140 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 1: What percentage of people do you think are willing to 141 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 1: get a fourth shot? And we should mention by the 142 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: way Barack Obama over the weekend latest celebrity, former President 143 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 1: Barack Obama has been double vaxed and boosted and tested 144 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 1: positive for COVID and he had symptoms. I believe, yeah, 145 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 1: And so what percentage of people do you think I 146 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 1: think I'm correct in this buck Only around fifty percent 147 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: of the people that were double vaxed have gone on 148 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,440 Speaker 1: and gotten boosted. What percentage of people do you think 149 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: will listen to the fiser CEO and go get a 150 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 1: fourth shot? Well, it's going to keep dropping. But that's 151 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:42,559 Speaker 1: why they're going to mandate shots again, and they're going 152 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 1: to do it in places like New York and California. 153 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 1: By saying, come on, it's not a big deal. It's 154 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,439 Speaker 1: just like the flu shot. It's just for this season. 155 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 1: Why do you want to put people at risk? Why 156 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:54,559 Speaker 1: they've learned nothing? I mean, this is what I think 157 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 1: everyone needs. They've they're walking away from this now because 158 00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 1: the cases are so low that they can't keep the 159 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 1: scare campaign's going. But they haven't actually changed their thinking 160 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 1: on this very much. I mean the New York Times 161 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 1: will write things like, maybe mask mandates don't work that well, 162 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 1: yeah they said that. Now guarantee you'll see a bunch 163 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,960 Speaker 1: of studies this summer where there's a lot of modeling 164 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: that is being done, you know, computer modeling without any 165 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:22,719 Speaker 1: control group saying masking does reduced Just the propaganda will 166 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: continue forever. I mean, this is what we're up against, 167 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 1: and that's why we have to keep fighting against this. 168 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,439 Speaker 1: And it's also why I think stories like the Kyrie 169 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 1: Irving one, because even people that were willing every day 170 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:40,679 Speaker 1: to follow the CDC guidelines, every single day more people 171 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 1: fall off because they look at it and they say, 172 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 1: wait a minute, this is just nonsensical. So and that's 173 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,080 Speaker 1: why I think these stories matter. These these these evocative 174 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:53,319 Speaker 1: imagery and anecdotes do have an impact. I was actually 175 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 1: on the Ascella train this past weekend for a day 176 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 1: going out of visits and friends. Oh yeah, how is Baltimore? 177 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 1: Didn't you go down to Baltimore? Yeah? It was good, good, 178 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 1: And I went down there and I had I was 179 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 1: told by the first of all, in the quiet car, 180 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 1: which you must respect the quiet converting. I've never people 181 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 1: who have never really, you've never been on it. It 182 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 1: is generally enforced with a stalinist ruthlessness that you must 183 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 1: actually shut up and not be on your phone in 184 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 1: the quiet car. Can you talk to your seat mate? No, no, 185 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:30,959 Speaker 1: no conversation whisper whisper level only and limited conversation. And look, 186 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,680 Speaker 1: I admit this is this is like the authoritarian quiet car. 187 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:37,320 Speaker 1: But the guy comes by the train conductor and he 188 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: sees me, and of course I have on this like 189 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,319 Speaker 1: mesh mask thing that is a total you know, you 190 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 1: might as well have like a piece of tissue paper 191 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 1: with two big holes in it. I mean, it's a joke, 192 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 1: but it's below my nose. And he goes, sir, I'm 193 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 1: gonna need you to pull I'm on a train. Need 194 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 1: to pull a mask up over your nose. I look around. 195 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 1: I'm not kidding. Guy next to me, lady across to me, 196 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 1: or they're all sitting there drinking coffee, masks down, so 197 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 1: no one has their mask up at all. I actually 198 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,840 Speaker 1: have it up halfway, but because I'm not actively drinking, 199 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:04,960 Speaker 1: I'm told to pull it up. Everybody nose to the 200 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 1: science and there's a guy with his phone talking and 201 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 1: he didn't get told to shut up in the quiet car, 202 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 1: so I really felt cheated. Clay I was very upset 203 00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 1: about it. I've never been on the quiet so that 204 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:18,560 Speaker 1: for people out there obviously like me, I think about 205 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:24,479 Speaker 1: the mask mandate as impacting primarily for travel, meaning airplane, airports, 206 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 1: but all train stations, like all trains, you guys now 207 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 1: have to have all Amtrak. They make you on Amtrak, 208 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,680 Speaker 1: you don't have to anywhere the Amtrak is taking you. 209 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,200 Speaker 1: So you go into the most crowded bar, you go 210 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 1: into the most crowded restaurant, concert, you know, dancehall, electric 211 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:47,200 Speaker 1: scooter rally, whatever you're doing, and you don't have to 212 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 1: wear a mask, but you have to on the train because, 213 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 1: my friends, the moral of the story here is we 214 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: are ruled by idiots who think they are smarter than you. 215 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 1: Just remember that that is the truth. We are ruled 216 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 1: by more who think they make better decisions than you do. Well. 217 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 1: I give credit to the Kyrie Irvings of the world, 218 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 1: and the Aaron Rodgers is and the yak Novak jokovic Is, 219 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 1: the sports figures who are in the public eye and 220 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 1: have said consistently I'm not going to get the COVID 221 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,960 Speaker 1: shot because now you're up to a fourth shot. We 222 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 1: know that the third shot is ineffective in terms of 223 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 1: keeping you from getting COVID, and inevitably, every single celebrity 224 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 1: who test positive for COVID says, oh, but for the 225 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,199 Speaker 1: fact that I had the COVID shots, I would have 226 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 1: been awfully ill. Right, Like they all send that same 227 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 1: clichade statement. It's just not true. It's just not remotely 228 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 1: true for most people who are relatively young and relatively healthy, 229 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 1: which athletes would be in spade, right, you know, it's 230 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 1: almost like in medieval period, you know, there'd be super 231 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 1: intense monks who would you know, you know, self flagellated 232 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 1: with themselves whatever. When you get COVID and you're thirty 233 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 1: years old and you're pretty sick, if you're a lib 234 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 1: who watches at f MSNBC and wants all your friends 235 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 1: to write about how smart and wise you are, you 236 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: have to say, I'm really sick with COVID and I'm thirty, 237 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 1: but god, I'm so thankful I'm on shot number seven 238 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 1: because otherwise this could have been bad. I just don't 239 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 1: know where it is. I mean you're up to four 240 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,559 Speaker 1: shots now out there, and I know that a huge 241 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:26,320 Speaker 1: majority of our audience, I would say, is not getting 242 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,599 Speaker 1: a fourth shot. And I don't know what percent. I 243 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 1: think we started to say, Clay on this show that 244 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 1: you're not fully vaccinated even if you got both shots. 245 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 1: Were were saying that in September, Yes, maybe October. I 246 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:40,080 Speaker 1: mean around then here we are, folks, and when are 247 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 1: we going to start to ask questions about a for 248 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 1: profit drug company that is able to consistently decide that 249 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,960 Speaker 1: you have to continue to consume their product and they're 250 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 1: making tens of billions of dollars off of it. I 251 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 1: would just think, you know, maybe at some point a 252 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 1: little bit of an alarm bell would go off there. 253 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,560 Speaker 1: Home values, by the way, are up nineteen percent over 254 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 1: a year ago. These games have become an important financial 255 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 1: tool for a lot of homeowners. That's because you got 256 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:10,320 Speaker 1: a lot more equity in your home right now that 257 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 1: might be accessible as cash at an incredibly low interest rate. 258 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: This can make it easier to pay off high interest 259 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 1: debt or fund home renovations. Now, that sounds like something 260 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 1: you might be interested in.

I don't want 275 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 1: to make the prediction exactly as to what's going to 276 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 1: happen in the second half of the year. You know 277 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 1: we're likely to see another year in which twelve month 278 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 1: inflation numbers remains very uncomfortably high. Welcome back the clan 279 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 1: Buck Show on Buckey's Clay. That was Janet Yellen, Treasury Secretary, 280 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 1: telling everybody inflation is going to be bad for the 281 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 1: rest of the year, which it's that's that's rough for 282 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 1: all of us, for everyone, because it just means, by 283 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 1: the math, you will have lost a month of wages 284 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 1: to inflation, give or take. And remember you also to 285 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 1: pay taxes on the ages you make. So it's gonna 286 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 1: be rough. It's gonna be a rough year economically financially 287 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 1: for a lot of people. And it's certainly not looking 288 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 1: good for Democrats from an electoral perspective, because a lot 289 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 1: of things they can spend a lot of things they 290 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 1: can hide. The price are your groceries, the rent going up, 291 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: and your gas prices skyrocketing, they can't hide that. They 292 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 1: can tell you it's no big deal, or they can 293 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 1: even pull a Pelosi here and tell you that government 294 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 1: spending actually makes all of this better. It reduces debt. 295 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 1: Even though the bills for ten years, they measure it 296 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 1: for twenty years, and the impromonteur said a trillion dollars 297 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 1: over twenty years has saved. So when we're having this discussion, 298 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 1: it's important to dispel some of those who say, well, 299 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 1: it's a government spending. No, it isn't the government spending. 300 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 1: Who's doing the exact reverse, reducing the national debt is 301 00:16:55,280 --> 00:17:00,720 Speaker 1: not inflationary. Government spending reduces the national debt, it is 302 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 1: not inflationary. Says the third in line for the presidency, 303 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 1: Speaker of the House, Clay Travis. We have crossed the 304 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:10,159 Speaker 1: streams man, I mean those are is about to appear. 305 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:14,679 Speaker 1: These are such ridiculous arguments at this point that even 306 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:19,640 Speaker 1: the most diehard Democrat ally I don't think, buys into 307 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:23,840 Speaker 1: these arguments anymore. And by the way, on inflation, remember 308 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 1: we were told for months the Biden administration's argument was 309 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:31,600 Speaker 1: this is all transitory, and now Janet Yellen is telling us, 310 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,880 Speaker 1: oh no, actually inflation is going to exist at an 311 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:40,120 Speaker 1: incredibly high level for a year or more. And they're 312 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:43,919 Speaker 1: running scared. I don't know what arguments they're going to 313 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 1: be able to put forward, because even they're tried and 314 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 1: true arguments. And we need to play this for you 315 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:51,359 Speaker 1: when we come back in the next segment. Have you 316 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:54,679 Speaker 1: heard what the view is saying now? They are encouraging 317 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 1: people to trying to defend Kamala Harris by really aggressively 318 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,720 Speaker 1: arguing the only reason people are saying bad things about 319 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,439 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris is because they're racist. In sexist. That's what 320 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,680 Speaker 1: they're falling back on it ain't working. Pure Talk customers 321 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 1: know this. You're saving fifty dollars a month or more 322 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 1: when you switch your cell phone service to pure Talk 323 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 1: without sacrificing quality or service. Because pure Talk exact same 324 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 1: cell phone towers, exact same network, can keep your exact 325 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 1: same number, it can get you hooked up in a 326 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 1: big way. Douglas and Indiana said he was finally able 327 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,480 Speaker 1: to change to pure Talk after hearing it advertised with 328 00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 1: US cell phone bill cut in half.

Oh, welcome back in Clay 337 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:07,880 Speaker 1: Travis buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all of you hanging out 338 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 1: with us. We are rolling through the Monday edition of 339 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 1: the program and it probably is perfect. Kamala Harris is 340 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 1: an unmitigated disaster. The only good thing that Joe Biden 341 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 1: has done is pick someone more incompetent than him as 342 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:32,520 Speaker 1: his vice presidential running mate, because almost any other vice 343 00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:37,359 Speaker 1: president people would be aggressively arguing, hey, let's put this 344 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 1: vice president in instead of Biden, certainly after the midterms 345 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,640 Speaker 1: when the Democrats are going to get shellacked. But Kamala 346 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 1: Harris has been so uncomfortably awkward that she is single 347 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 1: handedly managing to at some level make Biden seem not 348 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,159 Speaker 1: as bad. That's particularly the case because you could at 349 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 1: least say, with Biden, he seventy eight years old, he's 350 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 1: rapid maybe seventy nine now, whatever the heck he is. 351 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:09,160 Speaker 1: He's rapidly deteriorating mentally, and yet he's still not as 352 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:12,919 Speaker 1: awkward as Kamala Harris is in her public events. We 353 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,159 Speaker 1: didn't play this for you. I think this went viral 354 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:18,399 Speaker 1: on Friday, if I'm not mistaken. Kamala Harris here, she 355 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 1: is laughing during a press conference in Poland as they 356 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:24,920 Speaker 1: talk about the situation in Ukraine and wondering what the 357 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 1: United States is going to do more specifically to set 358 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 1: up a permanent infrastructure and Relatedly, is the United States 359 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 1: willing to make a specific allocation for Ukrainian refugees and 360 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 1: for President Judah, I wanted to know if you asked 361 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 1: the United States to specifically accept more refugees. Okay, a 362 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: friend in need is a friend. Indeed, I'm weird. It's 363 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 1: what's going on there is they asked too question. And 364 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,440 Speaker 1: then there's a couple of other clips where she's also 365 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:01,479 Speaker 1: super awkward. They didn't know who was going to talk first, 366 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 1: which can be an issue if you're doing a press 367 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 1: conference and I don't know that that's the reaction that 368 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,800 Speaker 1: you would expect to see in a situation like that. 369 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:13,440 Speaker 1: And so she's been criticized for this. Buck the View, 370 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 1: which is the dumbest show on television, defending potentially the 371 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 1: dumbest politician in America, feels like a perfect fit. Here's 372 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 1: the View saying, Hey, everybody who is criticizing Kamala Harris 373 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 1: is doing it based on racism and misogyny. People are 374 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:33,920 Speaker 1: talking about it. I personally think if she was a guy, 375 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 1: they would never say it. Because they also made fun 376 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:38,440 Speaker 1: of Hillary's laugh, But I don't say them making fun 377 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:40,679 Speaker 1: of a Pence's laugh or any of the other guys. 378 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 1: Did he laugh, Well, they don't laugh very much. I 379 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 1: don't know that it's about her laughing, because I agree, 380 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 1: I think that would be very inappropriate and that that's 381 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:50,439 Speaker 1: something that they do to women. I think that she 382 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:54,119 Speaker 1: has gone on multiple occasions a little bit underprepared with 383 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:55,960 Speaker 1: some of the questions that she's been asked. What it 384 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 1: is is that they constantly question the qualifications of black women, 385 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 1: and that's why people are saying that she's unprepared. Oh, 386 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,879 Speaker 1: I disagree. I think you can disagree, but that's the 387 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,240 Speaker 1: truth of it. And so this is based in racism, 388 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 1: This is based in misogyny. I mean no, it's actually 389 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:13,600 Speaker 1: based in Kamala Harris didn't even get what one percent 390 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 1: of the Democrat primary or they voted. Kamala Harris was 391 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 1: not someone that Democrats regards. So I guess the Democrats 392 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 1: must all be so racist and sexist because they were 393 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 1: not supporting her at the national level for a job 394 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 1: like this. She was picked by Joe Biden because Joe 395 00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:34,160 Speaker 1: Biden is a very old white guy and they were 396 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 1: trying to make sure there was some identity politics component 397 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,200 Speaker 1: of the Biden regime. So in the same you know, 398 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:43,120 Speaker 1: Joe Biden is somebody who comes out and actually says, 399 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 1: I will only pick somebody with the following gender, skin color, 400 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 1: et cetera. He makes this stuff explicit, so we can 401 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:52,679 Speaker 1: speak about it as though he has made it explicit, 402 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:55,680 Speaker 1: because he does say this stuff out loud. And Kamala 403 00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: Harris has done a bad job in in every instance 404 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,919 Speaker 1: which she is on the really global stage, but you 405 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 1: can say the national stage even more so, she comes 406 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:09,320 Speaker 1: out looking like she is unprepared. And it is in 407 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:13,679 Speaker 1: fact possible that we're just analyzing what Kamala Harris is 408 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,679 Speaker 1: doing in the job, and that just crying sexism and 409 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: racism is not an effective tactic for the Democrats here. 410 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 1: I mean, Clay, look at what we say about Joe. 411 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,240 Speaker 1: I mean, we make fun of Joe Biden all the time. 412 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 1: These are politicians, and it just seems pathetic and whiny 413 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 1: to fall back on the it's because she's a woman, 414 00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 1: it's because she's a minority, Give it a rest. We 415 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:35,639 Speaker 1: make fun of Biden ten times as much as we 416 00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 1: do Kamala, no doubt. And also it's the height of 417 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:43,159 Speaker 1: hypocrisy to blame racism and sexism for the way that 418 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:47,479 Speaker 1: Kamala is treated when to a large extent, she got 419 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 1: the job of vice president based on her race and 420 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 1: her sex, right, I mean, you got the job based 421 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:58,440 Speaker 1: on your race and sex, So it's certainly sex at minimum, 422 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:02,399 Speaker 1: because Kamala was selected when Joe Biden said he's going 423 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,239 Speaker 1: to pick a woman for his vice president, and the 424 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 1: fact that he also picked a minority woman is arguably 425 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 1: necessary given, like you said, Buck, his old whiteness and 426 00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 1: the fact that he's trying to be the diverse and inclusive. 427 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:18,240 Speaker 1: And let me say this too, Buck, you talked about 428 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 1: making fun of Joe Biden. Does no one remember how 429 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 1: much dan Quaile got made fun of. Dan Quail is 430 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:29,880 Speaker 1: the whitest dude vice president imaginable. He got destroyed for 431 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 1: four years from nineteen eighty eight to nineteen ninety two. 432 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 1: No vice president has ever gotten ridiculed as much as 433 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 1: dan Quill did, and it was for many of the 434 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 1: same reasons, fair or foul. There was the idea that 435 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 1: he was calo, not particularly prepared, didn't deserve that job. 436 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 1: And again I'm not saying this is an accurate criticism 437 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 1: of dan Quail. I don't know him personally, but I 438 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 1: am saying that was the perception for dan Quail, which 439 00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:59,840 Speaker 1: is almost identical to the perception that exists for com 440 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 1: People also get tired. I think of being told, for example, 441 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:07,760 Speaker 1: well we Kamala is a better pick for this role 442 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 1: than other people because of her gender and because of 443 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 1: her race. So these are assets, and then a lot 444 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:18,040 Speaker 1: of people go okay, and so the Democrats, etc. Will 445 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:20,880 Speaker 1: vote this person in office, and then it's well, if 446 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 1: you criticize this person, it's because you disapprove of those 447 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 1: things that say, you know, how, well what is this? 448 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, the American people or in this case, 449 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:32,880 Speaker 1: you know, the Democrats vote for somebody, and we're supposed 450 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 1: to believe that it's it's an asset for them to, 451 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 1: in the diversity and inclusion sense, have these attributes and 452 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:43,119 Speaker 1: then also immediately fall back on the moment there's criticism, Oh, 453 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:46,639 Speaker 1: that's sexist or that's racist. Everybody thinks Kamala hasn't been 454 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 1: doing a good job, give me a break. But it's 455 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:54,120 Speaker 1: the view that it is the dumbest political show. Influential though, Clay, 456 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:56,879 Speaker 1: if you are if you are a a you know, 457 00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 1: a semi literate persons at home who doesn't actually understand 458 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 1: anything about politics. You may watch the View and think 459 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 1: that this is what you're supposed to believe is the 460 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 1: reality of America in the world around you. I think 461 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 1: that's unfortunately true for a large number of especially women. Obviously, 462 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 1: this is being a program towards women who are staying 463 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 1: at home during the day. I'll also point this out, Buck. 464 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 1: This is why if Biden doesn't run, it's going to 465 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 1: be racist and sexist of the Democrat Party if they 466 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 1: don't pick Kamala Harris as their nominee. This is going 467 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:35,400 Speaker 1: to be the underlying it. Maybe even it's certainly the subtext. 468 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:38,480 Speaker 1: It may be the text of her campaign. I'm the 469 00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:42,880 Speaker 1: next person up. I was vice president, I am. It's 470 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:45,920 Speaker 1: racist and sexist. If the Democrats try to pick anybody else, 471 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 1: that's the identity politics angle that I think they may 472 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,920 Speaker 1: have painted themselves into a corner on having to pick her. 473 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:54,199 Speaker 1: That's why I think Hillary might try to angle her 474 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 1: way in because she can at least cancel out the 475 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:59,119 Speaker 1: sexist part, although she'll probably get called a racist. You know, 476 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:01,679 Speaker 1: they also want to throw our friend Tucker in the 477 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 1: Biden when we come back. I mean, the View does 478 00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:08,200 Speaker 1: not believe in free speech at all. Yeah, I don't, 479 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 1: and I don't mean they they say that you shouldn't 480 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,120 Speaker 1: be able to say things. I mean they want they 481 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 1: want the government to go after you for putin propaganda. 482 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 1: I also think part of this is that the true 483 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 1: believer Democrats were broken with Russia collusion even before they 484 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,720 Speaker 1: were further broken with Fauciism and the double masking outside 485 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:33,719 Speaker 1: Alane stuff. And now they can't think straight about Russia. Somehow, 486 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: Russia when Biden as president is still a referendum on 487 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 1: Trump winning in twenty sixteen, that they haven't been able 488 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 1: to figure this stuff out. Robert Muller was their first 489 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 1: Saint Fauci, right, that was Saint Robert Muller is going 490 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:49,360 Speaker 1: to deliver the country. Comey actually? But yeah, well come 491 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:51,879 Speaker 1: I have been first. And then eventually Robert Muller the 492 00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:55,200 Speaker 1: investigation and when that details came out that Rachel Maddow, 493 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:58,679 Speaker 1: remember she was spinning a huge web of conspiracies associated 494 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 1: with Russia, and then in after years of that argument, 495 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:04,920 Speaker 1: suddenly they had nothing. They were left empty handed. Think 496 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,440 Speaker 1: about this. Rachel Matto was by far the biggest show 497 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 1: at MSNBC for the three years pre COVID right of 498 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,920 Speaker 1: the Trump presidency. The essentially the entire narrative threat of 499 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 1: the show was a lie and insane. Yes, and now 500 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 1: she's paid even more money, thirty million this year. She's 501 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:22,199 Speaker 1: not even working. She's getting to sit out now. This 502 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:23,520 Speaker 1: is what I was going to tell people along. I 503 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,120 Speaker 1: had to correct a lot of people on the right 504 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:29,200 Speaker 1: Russia collusion hoax. Unfortunately, in many ways work it didn't 505 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:31,879 Speaker 1: get everything that it wanted, but it slowed down the 506 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:35,720 Speaker 1: Trump presidency. It created all kinds of legal harassment and hurdles, 507 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 1: and the worst people in the Democrat corporate media elevated themselves, 508 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 1: became richer, more influential. The whole thing was, it was 509 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 1: an absolute catastrophe, a cacaphony of lies. What about Jinsaki 510 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:53,720 Speaker 1: still was talking in her ridiculous briefing of the TikTok stars. 511 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 1: Did you see she said twenty sixteen Russia stole the 512 00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 1: election in her briefing of the two. But I mean, 513 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 1: it's ridiculous in it of itself, But to be still 514 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 1: spreading that is perfection.

It could be 542 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: World War three, you don't say. And also some very 543 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,240 Speaker 1: interesting poll results on that no fly zone that I'd 544 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:47,040 Speaker 1: been saying. I was surprised at how many people seem 545 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 1: to support it in the polling. Polls can be very misleading, 546 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 1: and those initial polls were when you get a little 547 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:58,280 Speaker 1: deeper into it on the no fly zone issue in Ukraine. 548 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,200 Speaker 1: So we'll get to some of that BLUs. We've got 549 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 1: our friend Ivory Hecker, who's an independent journalis who spent 550 00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:06,000 Speaker 1: most of last week down at the US Mexico border. 551 00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: She'll be with us and about well bottom of the 552 00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:11,960 Speaker 1: next hour, So wherever you are across the country bottom 553 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 1: the next hour, I'm gonna ask her what's it like 554 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 1: watching an open border get worse and worse with every 555 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 1: passing day, Because that's actually what's happening under the Biden administration. 556 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 1: As we've said, we will not let the issue of 557 00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 1: fauciism go. We will not let the issue of our 558 00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:27,080 Speaker 1: open border go either. It's not just going to be 559 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:30,960 Speaker 1: what the Democrat media wants us to talk about. Speaking 560 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 1: of the Democrat media, you see that transmission transmission? Oh 561 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 1: you bah, that's like you got to the rim. You 562 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 1: made it all the way there. You were ready for 563 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 1: your dunk, and you put it off the back of 564 00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 1: the rim. I always feel bad for the dunking and 565 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 1: you hit the rim. That's always a sad moment. And 566 00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 1: that was what that was right there. And then I 567 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:53,160 Speaker 1: fell and twisted my ankle. Wasn't a good moment. I 568 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:55,200 Speaker 1: needed to stretch those hammis before I tried to get 569 00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 1: Maybe there was a wet spot on the court. Spot 570 00:31:57,840 --> 00:31:59,520 Speaker 1: on the court. Somebody didn't you know, they got those 571 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 1: kids that come out from underneath the basket. They don't 572 00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 1: do a great job cleaning all the time. I want 573 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:05,920 Speaker 1: to blame somebody else, but it's somebody else's fault. All right. 574 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 1: We have the view here once again. I'm glad the 575 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:11,720 Speaker 1: view exists because if it didn't we'd have to make 576 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 1: it up. What if they start playing our clips on 577 00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 1: the view, we got a real feud going back. I 578 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 1: would just love to hear how they would have this 579 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: some some horrible thing called the Clay Travis and Buck 580 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 1: Sexton Show. Like the tears that would flow just from 581 00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:28,080 Speaker 1: having to read our names aloud would be I would 582 00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:29,880 Speaker 1: love if we got a real feud going where the 583 00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 1: where the View would take clips from our show and 584 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 1: they'd be like, these are the two dumbest people on 585 00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 1: the plane. Clay Travis once referred to his love of 586 00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 1: the First Amendment and boops, oh, so here they are, though, 587 00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 1: clutching the pearls they actually want. At least at least 588 00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 1: one of them wants a full a federal government investigation, 589 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:56,560 Speaker 1: it seems of our buddy Tucker Carlson, because Tucker says 590 00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 1: things that they don't like, so so sick the government 591 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:03,520 Speaker 1: on him. Tucker Carlson is apparently a big hit in 592 00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 1: Russia right now. The website mother Jones, close to the 593 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:11,640 Speaker 1: elite Kremlin war memo instructing Russian state media to play 594 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 1: Tucker Callson cliffs as much as possible, and Tulsey Gabbert 595 00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:21,160 Speaker 1: is being accused of spreading Russian false flag propaganda DJ 596 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 1: in the same way that it is setting up a 597 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:27,240 Speaker 1: task force to investigate oligarchs, should look into people who 598 00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 1: are Russian propagandist and shilling for Putin. That's being if 599 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 1: you are a foreign asset to a dictator, they should 600 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:38,560 Speaker 1: be investigated. This is a just orban understands. That's Anna 601 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 1: Navarro who I will say, and I don't say this 602 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:43,920 Speaker 1: to be unkind I say this to observe accurately among 603 00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 1: the dumbest political analysts you will ever hear from in 604 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,080 Speaker 1: your entire life. And I know because I actually sat 605 00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:50,920 Speaker 1: on some panels with her at CNN. Here she is 606 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:56,440 Speaker 1: saying that the federal government should investigate this. On TV 607 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:59,200 Speaker 1: there a couple of million people unfortunately watching this. The 608 00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:05,200 Speaker 1: federal government should investigate Tucker Carlson for being a Russian propagandist. Now, normally, Clay, 609 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:09,080 Speaker 1: we could ignore this. Oh they're so dumb, They're Does 610 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:11,600 Speaker 1: this sound like something Jensaki would say? Does it sound 611 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:15,239 Speaker 1: like the Biden administration was pushing and is pushing we 612 00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:19,040 Speaker 1: didn't even talk about this for more COVID misinformation data 613 00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:22,920 Speaker 1: to be handed over to them from the social media companies. 614 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:26,160 Speaker 1: The First Amendment is under real assault the Surgeon General 615 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:30,839 Speaker 1: for sure, And we talked about this when Facebook inexplicably decided, Hey, 616 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:35,000 Speaker 1: you can now root for the death of Russians and 617 00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:39,160 Speaker 1: also call for their assassinations on Facebook. So we have 618 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 1: tech oligarchs basically making decisions about what First Amendment rights 619 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:46,920 Speaker 1: we have on these major platforms in terms of the 620 00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 1: marketplace of ideas, and you would think that maybe people 621 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,440 Speaker 1: at The View would be a little bit more in 622 00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:57,680 Speaker 1: favor of the First Amendment considering that whoop Whoopie Goldberg 623 00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 1: just got suspended two weeks on a show called The 624 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:06,279 Speaker 1: View for having such a stupid view of the Holocaust, 625 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 1: and now they're demanding that Tucker Carlson be investigated by 626 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 1: the federal government for what he's saying on television. I also, 627 00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:15,759 Speaker 1: I also sometimes the class talking, I feel like a 628 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:17,359 Speaker 1: kid in the class. I'm like, I'm like, wait, wait, wait, 629 00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 1: there's one more thing. Did you see this guy? Did 630 00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:23,400 Speaker 1: you see this guy? McFall, who was the US ambassador 631 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:27,319 Speaker 1: to Russia, was like, well, Putin's I mean, I'm paraphrasing here. 632 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:30,560 Speaker 1: The weekend they had to pull it off. MSNBC like 633 00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 1: they shared the clip. This guy who was a was 634 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 1: the US ambassador to Russia and is a huge lid 635 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:38,040 Speaker 1: who hates Trump. Just for the record, I've had a 636 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:41,880 Speaker 1: couple of little spats with him online before Twitter. He's 637 00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:43,359 Speaker 1: an idiot. I don't care that he was a lot 638 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:45,319 Speaker 1: of ambassadors are morons. I knew plenty of them in 639 00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:50,680 Speaker 1: my day. And he says that unlike Hitler Putin, this 640 00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:55,799 Speaker 1: is him Now. I'm paraphrases Putin didn't kill ethnic Russians 641 00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:59,239 Speaker 1: who speak Russian, you know, or I'm sorry, Hitler didn't 642 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 1: kill ethnic Germans who speak German. Putin is killing ethnic 643 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:06,319 Speaker 1: Russians who speak Russians. He's arguing Putin is worse than Hitler. Yes, yes, 644 00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:08,480 Speaker 1: that's what he tried to argue. He would rate up, 645 00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:10,919 Speaker 1: not like tiptoeing up to it. That was his ms 646 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,560 Speaker 1: ABC argument. He said, this is this is a high 647 00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:16,799 Speaker 1: government official under the under the Obama administration. I think 648 00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:18,680 Speaker 1: he might have even been for part of the Trump administration. 649 00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:23,360 Speaker 1: He was saying, because he was State Department that Hitler 650 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:29,000 Speaker 1: didn't kill ethnic Germans who spoke German. How is someone 651 00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:33,120 Speaker 1: so stupid who was in charge of US diplomacy with 652 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:37,200 Speaker 1: a nuclear armed country. I'm just wondering, in a general rule, 653 00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:42,160 Speaker 1: comparing people to Hitler is a bad idea. Arguing someone 654 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:46,839 Speaker 1: is worse than Hitler in the modern era even worse 655 00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:49,040 Speaker 1: of an idea. That's what he did on MSNBC, and 656 00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:51,000 Speaker 1: they had to pull it off of their clip because 657 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:53,279 Speaker 1: they were getting criticized. No fly zone, we'll talk about 658 00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:53,839 Speaker 1: it coming up.
