Wednesday edition of The Clay Travis, at 3 00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:10,960 Speaker 1: and Buck Sexton Show is underway. Thanks for being here. 4 00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:14,640 Speaker 1: A lot of news, of course, the protest madness starting 5 00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:18,440 Speaker 1: on Columbia University's campus now replicated on a whole lot 6 00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:22,800 Speaker 1: of other campuses seeing it in Oh God, it's up 7 00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:26,760 Speaker 1: at Yale, It's so that's Connecticut, it's in Minnesota, It's 8 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,040 Speaker 1: I can't even name all the states all over the place, 9 00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:32,280 Speaker 1: these campus protests breaking out right at the end of 10 00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 1: the school year. Arrests have been made NYU and New York. 11 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:38,240 Speaker 1: Arrest have been made there. So we're going to dive 12 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 1: into that whole situation for sure. 13 00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:44,560 Speaker 2: And yes, sir, I just want to point out something 14 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:46,320 Speaker 2: you said yesterday, but I think it's very funny and 15 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:50,440 Speaker 2: worth pointing out. The protesters are so upset about what's 16 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:52,919 Speaker 2: going on that they waited until the weather was good 17 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:54,880 Speaker 2: enough to be able to camp out in the northeast 18 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:56,520 Speaker 2: to actually camp out on the quad. 19 00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:59,959 Speaker 1: They didn't use this in January and February. The Israeli 20 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:06,120 Speaker 1: military escalation, invasion whatever has been going on for months. Yes, 21 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:11,320 Speaker 1: and yet there was no occupy the Quad protest in February. 22 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 1: It's very funny now that it's you know, Hackey Sack 23 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,640 Speaker 1: and Patchuli weather out in the quad. You know, everyone 24 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 1: just hanging out. They're having a good time. So we'll 25 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 1: discuss some of the madness here. And also, as we said, 26 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 1: real dedication would be University of Michigan or Minnesota or 27 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: Buffalo protesting out of the campus quad January. Then then 28 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 1: you're committed, like. 29 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 2: Right now, try to sleep outside when it's really cold. 30 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 2: I mean, it is absolutely brutal for anybody who has 31 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 2: ever done it. It's just very funny that it's now 32 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 2: nice outdoors weather and they're suddenly like, we've got to 33 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 2: we've got to take. 34 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 1: Over the quad, We've got to sleep outdoors. And yeah, yeah, 35 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 1: I remember I had to eat outside once long story, 36 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 1: during the worst of COVID madness, and it was January. 37 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 1: I was absolutely like I actually lost touch with my butt, 38 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 1: Like I don't know if it was there anymore, that's 39 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 1: how cold it was. You never want to be like, 40 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:10,800 Speaker 1: is my butt still there? That's a bad day. 41 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 2: I We had a camp sleepover in February for the 42 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 2: school that my kids go to it's a dad's son 43 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,920 Speaker 2: camp out, and you could take all your boys. And 44 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 2: my youngest at the time was like five or six 45 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 2: years old, and in the middle of the night, he 46 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 2: just came over to me and he said, Dad, can 47 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 2: I please get into your sleeping bag. I am just 48 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 2: so unbelievably cold, you know, my little kid and youngest son, 49 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 2: And he just climbed in and just burrowed down underneath, 50 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 2: just immediately went to sleep. I couldn't move, of course, 51 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 2: but it is funny. It is very worth noting, and 52 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 2: I haven't heard anybody else mention it. They're so committed 53 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 2: to the idea of anti Israel protests, but only if 54 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 2: it's not that cold outside, which is perfect for these people. 55 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 1: So we've also got We're going to dive into that 56 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 1: a lot. I've I've been analyzing the masking phenomenon on campus, 57 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 1: and it's complicated and very interesting because there are a 58 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 1: lot of these protesters wearing masks. See the photos, you 59 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 1: see the videos. Why. I know everyone thinks they know why, 60 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: but it's actually different things depending on the protesters we're 61 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 1: talking about. I'll get into that in a moment. This story. 62 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 1: Clay sent this to me. This one just infuriates me. 63 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:32,839 Speaker 1: This American dad, father of two, is arrested returning from 64 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: his vacation in the Turks and Caicos Islands in the Caribbean. 65 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 1: This kind of hits home. I was just in the 66 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: Caribbean myself, and he faces a mandatory twelve year prison 67 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 1: sentence for having a few hunting rifle. I believe it's rifle, 68 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: it might be shotgun. On even know a hunting ammunition 69 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 1: rounds for hunting. It wasn't clear. 70 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 2: Not a weapon, not a weapon, just a bag that 71 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 2: he had had maybe ammunition stored in before. 72 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 1: And a couple of rounds. It was as anyone. Look, 73 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 1: I'll tell you I have. And I was taught this 74 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 1: by a Special Forces guy. He said, first of all, 75 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 1: no one ever packs your gear before you go out 76 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 1: onto the range or off the range. But you you 77 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: never let anyone else pack when you're dealing with ammunition 78 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 1: and firms, because you never know when someone's gonna inadvertently 79 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 1: stick a few rounds into this pocket because they're loose. 80 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 1: Loose rounds happen all the time. He said, you were 81 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 1: always It's almost like the airport things. If you said 82 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 1: you're always in charge of your kit to and from 83 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 1: the range. And it's because of situations like this, and 84 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: so anyway, it drives me insane. There is no justice 85 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,280 Speaker 1: if somebody for an inadvertent mistake with no cost to 86 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: anyone or anything, it faces prison time. I want to 87 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,280 Speaker 1: discuss that in a little bit morning, console Bloomberg Poll. 88 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 1: We'll get into this. I'm gonna have to calm Clay 89 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,159 Speaker 1: down a little bit. It's a little early, still, Clay, 90 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: it's a little early, all right. We don't we can't 91 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,599 Speaker 1: get too excited. We got to keep our composure. Trump 92 00:04:56,680 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 1: is absolutely trouncing Biden in all of these polls, Okay, 93 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 1: and we're gonna have We're gonna have to just look 94 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: at that reality, not get too far ahead of ourselves. 95 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:10,600 Speaker 1: And then Supreme Court is looking at an Idaho abortion law, 96 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 1: federal law. And I've got some thoughts, Clay on how 97 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 1: they're taking this. Oh, one more thing, Walmart getting rid 98 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: of some automated checkout stations, but not because of efficiency. 99 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: We will discuss that. Walmart's already starting to phase it out. 100 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,840 Speaker 1: But let's start with this. I I was like, look, 101 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: you're hearing some sanity from people out there in the 102 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: media in surprising places. And I think it's in part 103 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 1: because one they're worried about the they're honestly the backlash 104 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: for the Jewish community in this country in an election year, 105 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 1: and and you know, they probably should be right. Also, Clay, 106 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: I think that they so so they recognize the politics 107 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 1: of this, They recognize that it's something that could come 108 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 1: back and bite them. But there we'll get into some 109 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 1: of those moments. But first off, this was this was 110 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,479 Speaker 1: on I think a substack. I'll track down the author 111 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 1: in a second. Pardon me for quoting without sighting, but 112 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: I'll have to quote it. Part of the reason, say 113 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: organizers at Columbia that they're masking remains an attempt to 114 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 1: make a point about exposure to COVID nineteen and other 115 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: health risks, which some in the protest movement believe remains dire. 116 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:29,840 Speaker 1: Part of it is the threat of a different kind 117 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 1: of exposure from being captured by facial recognition technology or 118 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:36,600 Speaker 1: being docks by counter protesters. Clay I was saying this, 119 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 1: I think you can tell the difference because if you're 120 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:43,479 Speaker 1: just a civilization hating pro terrorist loon, you go with 121 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,599 Speaker 1: the Kafia, you go with the scarf of you know 122 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 1: that you associate with hamas and this is like you know, 123 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:52,279 Speaker 1: and you start, you walk around with that thing on, 124 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 1: and you do you look, you pull the whole sort 125 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 1: of Arafat routine. You go with that. But if you're 126 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:02,039 Speaker 1: wearing a surgical mask, which in the photos huge, I 127 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 1: mean thirty percent of them are wearing either an N 128 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,040 Speaker 1: ninety five or some kind of a surgical medical mask. 129 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 1: It's because they and they say it to their they're 130 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: being asked about this. They still think COVID is a 131 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 1: dire threat. They believe that. 132 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 2: You know, there used to be laws to not allow 133 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 2: masking because the idea was clearly, you're more likely to 134 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 2: commit a crime if your face can't be seen. Go figure, 135 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 2: we need to bring back this. It's a public safety issue. 136 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 1: In New York. For two hundred years, you were unless 137 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 1: it was needed for construction or an imminent work task, 138 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: you're not allowed to walk around with your face covered. 139 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: But I argue this during the pandemic play, so I 140 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 1: was diving into this history back then. It is absolutely 141 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 1: sensible policy to say your face must be people must 142 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 1: be able to see your face in public. 143 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 2: I think even more so, they had to be connected 144 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 2: to the massive amounts of theft that we saw over 145 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 2: taking place in New York City, because as in a 146 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 2: camera age, being able to be seen as even more 147 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 2: of a distraction you would think from being willing to steal. 148 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 2: But yes, it's evidence to me that these people are 149 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 2: in a cult. And the scary thing about cults for 150 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 2: anyone out there that has ever studied them or paid 151 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 2: attention to them at all, is they don't respond to 152 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 2: rational thought. And this has been my argument for whatever 153 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 2: your political beliefs are, you can be the most diehard 154 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 2: Trump supporter out there right now. Don't be cult like, 155 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 2: look at the facts and be willing to have a 156 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 2: difference of opinion with a political figure. You should unless 157 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:49,680 Speaker 2: you're the candidate yourself. You should never agree with anyone 158 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 2: on one hundred percent of the issues. I really mean that. 159 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,680 Speaker 2: And I love those of you out there who listen 160 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 2: to Bucket Me and you're out there every day and 161 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 2: your diehards and you listen for three hours, I would 162 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 2: say the same thing to you. You shouldn't agree with 163 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 2: everything that we say on this program. There should be 164 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 2: some things where you're like, ah, I think they're wrong 165 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 2: on this, or I agree with Buck or I agree 166 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:11,239 Speaker 2: with Clay. 167 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 1: But Cray is wrong sometimes and I have to tell 168 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 1: him because of the honesty of the show. I have 169 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 1: to explain to him that flute players can be quite 170 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 1: masculine and handsome, and that eating ice cream alone is 171 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 1: not a problem. 172 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,439 Speaker 2: So and if we needed someone, Laura Travis would be 173 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 2: very happy to call in and lit a litany of 174 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 2: things that I am one hundred percent wrong with in 175 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,559 Speaker 2: twenty years of marriage. And I'm sure Carrie, even though 176 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 2: you're relatively new in marriage, has a full list of 177 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 2: things that she has decided that you are wrong about. 178 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 1: I'm wrong sometimes, I'm wrong sometimes, and I apologize in 179 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 1: advance for all of those wrongs that I have not. Yes, 180 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 1: that's a very smart married man thing to do. All 181 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 1: of you out there should be willing to challenge conventional 182 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 1: wisdom and any opinion out there. And what you're seeing 183 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,440 Speaker 1: is this is what's scary, and I think you said 184 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 1: it also a it's worth pointing out you can be 185 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: highly educated and incredibly dumb. And what you're seeing from 186 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 1: these NYU faculty members. Ian Miller, who writes it out 187 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 1: cake and has been great on data, tweeted about it too, 188 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 1: what you're talking about. They were performing a human shield 189 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 1: to try to keep the police from being able to 190 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: do anything to the NYU protesters. And all of the 191 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 1: in the picture, all of the faculty members had on 192 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 1: masks in ninety five or whatever, surgical masks. Can you 193 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: imagine being a parent that is paying these people who 194 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 1: are wearing masks to instruct your children. I have some 195 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 1: disconcerting news for you, mister Clay, speaking about keeping it 196 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: real here, more and more it is coming out there 197 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: are a lot of parents who are supportive of this. 198 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:46,960 Speaker 1: I got an email. 199 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 2: That's it's the women's side of Columbia's Barnard writer Barnard. Yes, 200 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 2: I got an email that I want to read that 201 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 2: was sent to me yesterday of a mom who listens 202 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:01,080 Speaker 2: to our show and has a daughter, Believe and is 203 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:04,080 Speaker 2: in one of the parent Facebook groups and says, like 204 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:07,239 Speaker 2: a lot of them are supportive of those protesters. 205 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 1: These people see you. Remember you live in a red state. 206 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:14,679 Speaker 1: I know these lunatics, the lunatic parents and the lunatic 207 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:18,959 Speaker 1: kids tend to not always as we know, but tend 208 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 1: to go together. So yes, we definitely need to have 209 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: you read that email. A second. But first I just 210 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,840 Speaker 1: wanted to note that this was on MSNBC. This has 211 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 1: cut ten professor Scott Galloway, who you know, like he 212 00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 1: hates Trump, He's a Democrat. He actually does say some 213 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 1: sensible things. He said things before. He says things about 214 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 1: male masculinity and undermining men. And I think he's obviously 215 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 1: a high wattage guy. I mean he's like probably the 216 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 1: most famous professor at the NYU Stern School of Business, 217 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 1: him and Nuriel Rubini, you know who predicted the two 218 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 1: thousand and eight crash. Anyway, Galloway's going on MSNBC and 219 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:59,560 Speaker 1: he's talking about, oh, what a surprise. The whole Israel 220 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,960 Speaker 1: thing is a about being white rich oppressors more than 221 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 1: anything else. Plate ten. 222 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 3: I think it's complicated. I think one, young people have 223 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 3: a healthy gag reflex from what people our age think, 224 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 3: and I think that's healthy. 225 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 1: Two. 226 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 3: I don't think Israel hastraped itself in glory. Over the 227 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 3: last twenty or thirty years. They've shifted from being kind 228 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 3: of a David to the goliath. I also think that incorrectly, 229 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 3: students on campus conflate the civil rights movement with what 230 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:27,079 Speaker 3: is going on in Palestine and have digressed, unfortunately because 231 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,440 Speaker 3: of an orthodoxy promoted by me and my colleagues that 232 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 3: there are oppressors and oppressed and the easiest way to 233 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 3: identify oppressors is how white and how rich they are, 234 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 3: fairly or unfairly. Israel has seen as ground zero for 235 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 3: whiteness and how wealthy they are. 236 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 1: We have been saying the months, four months, the reason 237 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:50,080 Speaker 1: they have mobilized this is like BLM three point zero 238 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: visit to the Middle East. I mean, this is the white, 239 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 1: oppressing brown narrative that these kids have all latched onto. 240 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 1: And he even says because the professors all buy into it. Clay, Yeah, 241 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,720 Speaker 1: so you're hearing it from He's a Democrat, he's a 242 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: tenured at NYU professor, and he's saying with Clay and 243 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,199 Speaker 1: Buck have been telling you for months, almost like we're 244 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 1: ahead of the curve. 245 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 4: Uh. 246 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 2: Credit to MSNBC for airing that and saying several things 247 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 2: that are counter I think to what would typically be 248 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 2: the left wing orthodoxy. I just I real discussion, even 249 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 2: if it comes from places that usually doesn't allow it, 250 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 2: I think should be praised. 251 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 1: I also think, you know, one of the we don't 252 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:33,079 Speaker 1: have stated principles on the show other than just being truthful, 253 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 1: awesome and loving America. But I do think that something 254 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:38,320 Speaker 1: that we do and we make a point of it, 255 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 1: is when someone says something that is a true statement, 256 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,199 Speaker 1: we praise the truth in the statement and give credit 257 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 1: for the statement. We don't say, oh, well, now this 258 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: person is great, listen to them on everything. But if 259 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,840 Speaker 1: someone says something that is true and accurate, we will 260 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 1: reflect it that way. We're not going to bash some 261 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 1: thing that is said by a person just because we 262 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 1: don't like the person, which is also a way of saying, 263 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,079 Speaker 1: we got a great Fetterman clip for later on for everybody. 264 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 1: People keep telling me Fetterman's fooling you, he's trying to 265 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 1: keep McCormick from winning. That may well be true, and 266 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 1: we have said that, but the soundbites that Fetterman is 267 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 1: putting out, I can assure you, is enraging the left 268 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 1: wing pro Hamas Caucus. 269 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,680 Speaker 2: So oh, they've been protesting his house like crazy. I mean, 270 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 2: we'll talk about that and more when we come back 271 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 2: in the meantime, and I'll read you that email because 272 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 2: I do think it's a great email from a mom 273 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 2: who's got a daughter at Columbia. The Tunnel the Towers 274 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 2: Foundation's been helping America's heroes and their family since nine 275 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 2: to eleven. This includes our first responders and service members 276 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 2: who serve our communities in country. This also includes those 277 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,920 Speaker 2: who die in the line of duty or are severely injured, 278 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 2: or veterans who fought for our nation's freedoms, only to 279 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 2: return home, fall in tough times and become homeless heroes 280 00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 2: like Buffalo firefighter Jason Arnaut and his family. Arnaut was 281 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 2: killed while protecting his community battling a warehouse fire. He 282 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 2: left behind his wife and a young daughter in their 283 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 2: darkest hout or. Tunnel to Towers provided Arnaut's wife and 284 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 2: daughter with a mortgage free home. The foundation lifted a 285 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 2: financial burden, enabling them to stay in the home where 286 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 2: they made memories. Join Tunnel to Towers on its mission 287 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 2: to do good support the families of America's greatest heroes, 288 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 2: the families of fallen first responders like Jason Arnot, plus 289 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 2: gold Star families with young kids, catastrophically injured service members, 290 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 2: and homeless veterans. Join Buck and Myself and our company, 291 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 2: Crockett Coffee in donating here's what we ask from you, 292 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 2: eleven dollars a month at T twot dot org. That's 293 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 2: t the number two T dot org. 294 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 1: We're trying to make sense of the craziness going on. 295 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 1: Well that's every day, but particularly the insanity on college 296 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 1: campuses and what these protesters are running around saying. But 297 00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 1: there's also what is the City of New York going 298 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 1: to do about? I would note that New York and 299 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: specifically Columbia University. Columbia University was where an Arab American 300 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:14,560 Speaker 1: professor named Edward Sayid was teaching for a long time, 301 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 1: and also he wrote Orientalism, which is a whole theory 302 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 1: around how the West views the East, you know, meaning 303 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 1: the Middle East specifically in this case, but really the 304 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 1: East more broadly, with a bit of condescension and all 305 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 1: their problems are our fault. So this stuff has been 306 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 1: at Columbia University for a long time. It's not new. 307 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 1: It's been a hobit of this. In fact, producer Ali 308 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 1: reminded us that Ahmedinajad, I think it was back in 309 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 1: two thousand and ten when he was the when he 310 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 1: was the president of Iran or was it the Prime 311 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 1: Minister of Iran at the time. I think he was 312 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 1: the I think he was the president. Anyway, he visited Columbia, 313 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:01,600 Speaker 1: and the Columbia students columb Me University was all very 314 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 1: excited about this until they asked Ahmadinajad, what about gay 315 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 1: people in your country and your treatment of them? And 316 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 1: his response was there are no gay people in Iran. So, 317 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:17,680 Speaker 1: as you can imagine, that did not go over well 318 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 1: even with the Columbia students. Run has seventy million people. 319 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 1: I was two thousand and seven. I'm sorry, I was 320 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 1: a few years off. I can't remember everything off the 321 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 1: top of my head. Two thousand and seven he spoke 322 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:31,640 Speaker 1: at Columba University. But let's just take a moment. The 323 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 1: mayor of New York City, Eric Adams, was confront So 324 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 1: he spends time in Florid, but I think he was 325 00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:42,399 Speaker 1: giving a speech. He's down here in Miami that I 326 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,200 Speaker 1: could guess with three guesses which hotel he stayed in, 327 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 1: because he likes to party. He does, he likes the nightlife, 328 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 1: he likes the scene. So I have a feeling I 329 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 1: know where Eric Adams would be staying, probably somewhere very fancy, 330 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,160 Speaker 1: very nice. But he was approached on his flight back, 331 00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:00,679 Speaker 1: the mayor of New York approached by a protester on 332 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:05,399 Speaker 1: the plane, and the protester unsurprisingly unhinged insane. 333 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:12,440 Speaker 5: Listen to this, Adams, Yes, you you support the Jason Pasta. 334 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 1: They're homeoting all over New York. The girl is pa 335 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 1: You ain't actually cures about the New York. Where are 336 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 1: even Miami? Go ahead, you can tell you how how 337 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:32,639 Speaker 1: is he? How is he supporting the genocide in New York, 338 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 1: or rather the genocide in Gaza. No, it's a fantastic question. 339 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 2: You could also tell you can't see this girl, but 340 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:42,960 Speaker 2: you can tell by the way she's speaking that she 341 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:47,520 Speaker 2: is ripping him while wearing a mask on the airplane. 342 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 1: There a couple of things. 343 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:54,679 Speaker 2: One can we stop normalizing because this happened to Alec 344 00:18:54,720 --> 00:19:00,240 Speaker 2: Baldwin too, pulling out your phone and recording someone while 345 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 2: you brate them, regardless of what your politics are. I know, look, 346 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:08,119 Speaker 2: I mean this for Republicans, for Democrats, for people who 347 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:13,159 Speaker 2: are independent. You don't make yourself or whatever cause you 348 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 2: believe in, look better when you hold up your camera 349 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 2: and scream at someone over political beliefs. We've got to 350 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 2: stop the normalization of this. We should as a nation, 351 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:31,360 Speaker 2: I believe, ridicule people who are doing this. That's not 352 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:34,640 Speaker 2: to say you can't protest or advocate for what you believe, 353 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 2: but in the same way that we've been pretty consistent on, Hey, 354 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 2: you shouldn't be able to show up outside of somebody's 355 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:46,040 Speaker 2: house on their front lawn and protest and beat drums 356 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,880 Speaker 2: and scream at them and wake up all their neighbors 357 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 2: in a residential area. On an airplane, you shouldn't pull 358 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 2: out your phone scream at Eric Adams. But Buck, this 359 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:02,520 Speaker 2: is what they have on the li The left doesn't 360 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:05,120 Speaker 2: know how to put the genie back in the bottle, 361 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:10,120 Speaker 2: and now they're turning. Instead of going after the great Satan, 362 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:14,880 Speaker 2: Donald Trump, they now are turning on each other. And 363 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,639 Speaker 2: this is what the Left does. I've been waiting for it, 364 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:23,439 Speaker 2: French Revolution style to turn on itself, and I think 365 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 2: with the Israel protest, with the heckling that we're seeing 366 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 2: happen of Eric Adams. Even Alec Baldwin, strongman of the Left, 367 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:36,359 Speaker 2: got ridiculed at his coffee shop for not being willing 368 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:37,880 Speaker 2: to scream free Palestine. 369 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 1: I think for the first time on the show, I 370 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:45,359 Speaker 1: could say that we stand with Alec Baldwin, which is 371 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:49,439 Speaker 1: the very first time before. But but you know, if 372 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:52,600 Speaker 1: you're acting like a jerk in public and just harassing somebody, 373 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: it's not discourse, it's not changing anyone's minds, it's not 374 00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: winning overhearts and minds. It's just an act of pure intimidation. 375 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,439 Speaker 1: And that's why what they're doing on campus and the 376 00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:07,119 Speaker 1: stuff they're saying about Jews and Jewish support for Israel. 377 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 1: And notice that Eric Adams supports the genocide in Gaza. 378 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:14,199 Speaker 1: I mean, first of US's not a genocide. Second of all, 379 00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 1: Eric Adams doesn't support it, and third of all, that 380 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 1: woman is an idiot. And what could he do even if. 381 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 2: He did support it, Like, what does the mayor of 382 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 2: New York City have to do with something that's happening 383 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:25,880 Speaker 2: five thousand miles away from him or whatever the mileage 384 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,200 Speaker 2: total is. As if they're gonna be like, we weren't 385 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,679 Speaker 2: really sure what to do to respond to the terror attack, 386 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 2: but Eric Adams, the mayor of New York City, made 387 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 2: a statement, and so we're going to change our mind. 388 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 1: Well, this is why Israel Palestine for the Left is 389 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 1: such a perfect issue of virtue stigma. And we've talked 390 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 1: about the racial dynamic. Then there's a religious dynamic that 391 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 1: anti colonial stuff and of course anti semitism broadly, but 392 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:53,159 Speaker 1: also it's like climate change. It's an issue that everybody. 393 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:56,360 Speaker 1: The proximity that you have to it is such that 394 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,280 Speaker 1: you get to shout and scream and make demands and 395 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 1: do nothing and think that you're a good person. Right. 396 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 1: No one is saying to these protesters, why don't you 397 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:06,919 Speaker 1: go to Gaza and you know, work in the you know, 398 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:10,199 Speaker 1: work in humanitarian capacity there or anything else. They just 399 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 1: get to spew this nonsense. And then there's also just 400 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,439 Speaker 1: the idiocy of young people who are brainwashed. And I 401 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 1: think we shouldn't forget that we have Rudy Giuliani, Yes, 402 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 1: the Rudy Giuliani shared this out a moment ago on 403 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:26,359 Speaker 1: his Twitter account. This is a I said YESTERD in 404 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: the show. If I were in New York, I would 405 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:30,880 Speaker 1: go to these things and I would ask questions because 406 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 1: you're gonna just it's a gold mine of content because 407 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 1: these people are are crazy, nasty and dumb. Overwhelmingly that's 408 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 1: what these press, the professors too. Mind you, right here 409 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:47,560 Speaker 1: is one of the and I know it's only one, 410 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 1: but I think it's indicative of many more. And the 411 00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:52,160 Speaker 1: mindset here is one of the protesters outside of ny 412 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:54,360 Speaker 1: you play it. What would you say is the main 413 00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:57,439 Speaker 1: goal with tonight's protest? I think the goal is just 414 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:01,080 Speaker 1: showing our support for Palestine and demanding n YU stops. 415 00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:04,479 Speaker 1: I honestly don't know what NYU is doing. Is there 416 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:06,720 Speaker 1: something that NYU's doing? I really don't know. I'm pretty 417 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 1: sure there. Do you know what ny is doing about that? 418 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:10,720 Speaker 4: Israel? 419 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 5: Why are we protesting here? 420 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:18,400 Speaker 1: That was more educated? I'm not either. I can't play 421 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,360 Speaker 1: in Columbia. I was there of Academia and we came. 422 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:24,920 Speaker 5: Down and our support, so I came down. 423 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,359 Speaker 1: I've heard there's lots of pomps. Some people were saying 424 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:32,960 Speaker 1: it was getting dangerous play for it. For first leftists, 425 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 1: it's just a social outing, you know. It's Oh, we 426 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 1: were at Columbia protesting and like hanging out, and like 427 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 1: now we're down at NYU and it's like, what is 428 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:43,879 Speaker 1: n YU even doing about this? Like do you know? 429 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,879 Speaker 1: I don't know. It's this is just they get to bang, 430 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 1: like like spoiled bratts. They get to bang pots and 431 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:53,640 Speaker 1: pants together and demand attention. And they're not even calling 432 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 1: for a cease far anymore. Notice they're calling for Palestine 433 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 1: to be free. What does that mean? Gods is free 434 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 1: and it's a horrible place. Okay, it's a horrible place. 435 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:04,399 Speaker 1: The Palestinians have made very poor decisions. 436 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 2: I guarantee you those girls posted on social media about 437 00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,240 Speaker 2: the fact that they went to the Free Palestine protest, 438 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:15,680 Speaker 2: and they probably got favorable responses on social media, which 439 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,399 Speaker 2: is again reflective of the fact that this is a 440 00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 2: social contagion. I don't really even understand initially, I think 441 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 2: the idea of the college protest. Correct me if I'm wrong, Buck, 442 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 2: I'm trying to be logical here and understand what they're demanding. 443 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:34,159 Speaker 2: I believe they were initially demanding that there be a 444 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:40,159 Speaker 2: divestment of any assets that were connected to Israel. But 445 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 2: does anybody even understand how or First of all, I 446 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 2: don't know how many assets there are that are connected 447 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 2: to Israel, But the idea that you're going to demand 448 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:54,959 Speaker 2: that somebody sell anything that's connected to Israel, first of all, 449 00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 2: it's the most impossible. But secondly, they don't even understand 450 00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 2: what that What would that? 451 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 1: Do they the whole thing is preposterous. But also again 452 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 1: I'm a native New Yorker. NYU and Columbia have received 453 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 1: enormous amounts of money from Jewish American donors. Yes, and 454 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:21,400 Speaker 1: so these campuses are caught in quite a bind because 455 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:25,240 Speaker 1: the stuff that is being said about Jewish Americans the 456 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:28,159 Speaker 1: Jewish people who support Israel, and that's kind of the 457 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 1: defining or the separating line here because there are Jewish 458 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:34,680 Speaker 1: protesters too. We should not lose sight of that. As 459 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 1: I clay, this goes to why I've been telling you 460 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 1: I don't think the vote's going to change that much. 461 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 1: You said ten percent that could happen. Yeah, it's not 462 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:43,920 Speaker 1: going to be eighty twenty. Though in favor of Trump, 463 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 1: I'd stake anything on that it might move a little bit. 464 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 1: There are Jewish pro Hamas protesters in America. As crazy 465 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:56,360 Speaker 1: as that sounds to everybody, it is a reality. They 466 00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 1: think this is a moral crusade for them as well. 467 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 1: It would be one thing if they had started this 468 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 1: moral crusade before October seventh, but after October seventh, it's 469 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 1: really hard to decide that you need to go on 470 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 1: a moral crusade to attack Israel. Because again, once twelve 471 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 1: hundred Jews got murdered in cold blood, it's very hard 472 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 1: to argue, Oh, the group that supported and put them 473 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 1: in power Hamas in Gaza is somehow deserving of your 474 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 1: commendation and support. There's also a backstory here, And as 475 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 1: I said, I started out my Midi studies, and I'm 476 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 1: not an Arab Israeli experts specifically. That's something that people 477 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 1: spend their whole lives on. But I started out working 478 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:43,320 Speaker 1: at the Washington Institute for Near's Policy as an intern 479 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:47,119 Speaker 1: for Dennis Ross, Clinton's envoy for the peace negotiations. I 480 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,199 Speaker 1: worked on the book The Missing Piece, which you can 481 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 1: it's very boring, don't buy it. But I worked on 482 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:55,080 Speaker 1: that book as a fact checker for a summer. And 483 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 1: so I started out on this issue, and so I 484 00:26:57,040 --> 00:27:00,080 Speaker 1: have some institutional memory of it, or just some on 485 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:03,159 Speaker 1: understanding of the history and even the more recent history 486 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 1: Gaza was the Israelis, with tremendous internal opposition to it, 487 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:13,639 Speaker 1: pulled out and said, fine, fine, we're gonna get rid 488 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 1: of all these settlements. We're going to take people, literally, 489 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 1: Jews kicking and screaming from some of these settlements that 490 00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:22,440 Speaker 1: are in this area of God and Gaza will belong 491 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:25,640 Speaker 1: only to the Palestinians. And it was a very difficult 492 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:27,960 Speaker 1: decision internally. It israelt the time because the Israelis were like, 493 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:30,400 Speaker 1: why this should be ours? This is not, but put 494 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:34,200 Speaker 1: that aside. They did it. They gave them greater autonomy. 495 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,400 Speaker 1: They let them hold their own elections, and they elected 496 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 1: terror psychopaths who throw gay people off of buildings and 497 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:45,439 Speaker 1: who engage in mass murder. And you find out there 498 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 1: are consequences. I don't know what else to say, is 499 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,120 Speaker 1: what are the Israeli supposed to say? Now, Yeah, let's 500 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 1: give them more autonomy and freedom, let's give them more 501 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 1: acts of good faith. But how many people do you 502 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 1: think even know Clay that Gaza about the evacuation from 503 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,640 Speaker 1: Gaza who are protesting here. I bet you five out 504 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,879 Speaker 1: of one hundred kids in these protests even knows that 505 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:08,360 Speaker 1: that happened. And the people who are all like jumping 506 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 1: on this bandwagon and talking about this as though it's 507 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,680 Speaker 1: some kind of an uprising for justice, they're abject morons. Honestly, 508 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:15,399 Speaker 1: they know nothing. 509 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 2: College kids are dumb and have been dumb for a 510 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,399 Speaker 2: long time. If we were in college and we're pretty smart, 511 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 2: and our listeners, some of them are in college and 512 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 2: they're very smart, so let's not get crazy. But I'm 513 00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:29,439 Speaker 2: less concerned with the college kids stupidity, more concerned with 514 00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 2: faculty Columbia and NYU faculty showing up to create a 515 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 2: human shield to prevent any removal of these tents from 516 00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 2: the quad and everything. 517 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 1: Masks the professors. This is why I said, guys, it's 518 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 1: not about fear of employment. Their tenured professors at these schools. 519 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 1: They're wearing masks because of COVID and because of solidarity 520 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 1: with the communist visual of the mask. 521 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 2: They're in their forties, fifties, and sixties. They're far too 522 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 2: old to be this dumb. And that is why I 523 00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 2: say they're in a cult, and they aren't willing to 524 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 2: recognize the fact that they're in a cult. They think 525 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 2: that they are the smart ones. 526 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 1: We also have another Oh, they definitely think that they 527 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 1: have another Man on the Street interview where a journalist 528 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 1: goes up and asks them, will you just condemn like 529 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:20,000 Speaker 1: the murder of Jews as a matter of principle, you 530 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 1: condemn the October seventh attacks. We will play some of 531 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 1: that audio for you. What these are professors not students? 532 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 1: What do the professors say?

They're swarming all over campuses, 557 00:30:57,560 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 1: more of them actually just in the last hour. Harvard, 558 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:05,520 Speaker 1: which you always know if somebody went to Harvard, and 559 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,120 Speaker 1: a lot more than that when they tell you that 560 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 1: they went to they went to college in Boston, like, well, 561 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 1: there's dozens of colleges in Boston, which which one? You know, 562 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 1: if you went to be You or or Emerson or 563 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 1: you say that's where you went to school. But if 564 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 1: you went to Harvard. You have to make people ask 565 00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 1: the question. I have to act like you don't want 566 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 1: to tell people like where did you go to school? 567 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:32,680 Speaker 1: The little university in Cambridge, you know, not next to 568 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 1: the Charles River. Yeah, anyway, Harvard's campus is now the 569 00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:43,680 Speaker 1: site of another one of these protests, another one of 570 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:48,960 Speaker 1: these Palestinian pro Hamas occupy. They got the oh I 571 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:51,720 Speaker 1: got the photos here. They got the tents out Oh yeah, 572 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:55,880 Speaker 1: is out there. Yeah, it's like an ad for an 573 00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 1: outdoor camping store or something. They got a tents everywhere, 574 00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:02,960 Speaker 1: probably some little cook stoves stuff like that. They're ready 575 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 1: to go. And as we've said, it is lovely in 576 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 1: the Harvard Quad this time of year. So it's not 577 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:09,520 Speaker 1: that much of a hardship. You know, you get to 578 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 1: you get the live stream, you fight against the man. 579 00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:17,560 Speaker 1: Yeah uh, you know, smoke a little weed, call the 580 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 1: cops pigs. I mean a lot of this stuff going 581 00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 1: on there. But then we get a little sad because 582 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,320 Speaker 1: we go over to Texas, a state we all love, 583 00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 1: love our we love our Texans, great state, beautiful people. 584 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 1: We go down to Texas and University of Texas at 585 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 1: Austin Clay they've got one underway right now as well. Yeah, 586 00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 1: so we've got more of these protests breaking out. I 587 00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:43,520 Speaker 1: think you're going to see a whole lot more of them. 588 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 1: It's an election year. These kids are all subject to 589 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:50,560 Speaker 1: this contagion. Their professors have been filling their brains with 590 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:53,840 Speaker 1: nonsense for years. But there is a professor I wanted 591 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 1: you to hear from. Actually, this is really interesting professor 592 00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 1: John mccorter, who I believe is a Columbia University professor 593 00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 1: but also makes the rounds on the podcast Circuit Rights 594 00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 1: for the Atlantic, And he is an intellectual. He's a 595 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 1: Black American author who questions the Dei narrative and wokeness 596 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 1: and all this stuff. And so he is brilliant, but 597 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:25,239 Speaker 1: not as celebrated by the left as he would be 598 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:28,720 Speaker 1: if say he was like the serial plagiarist president of 599 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:30,840 Speaker 1: Harvard or something, right, because you know, he's breaking with 600 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:34,960 Speaker 1: the narrative. But here he is saying something that it 601 00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 1: is going to get some people's attention. He is making 602 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:43,000 Speaker 1: the claim that this is what Jewish students on campus 603 00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 1: are being subjected to, provably demonstrably subjected to. Right now, 604 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 1: Clay is worse than anything black students have faced on 605 00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:57,560 Speaker 1: college campuses in America in fifty years. Play this clip. 606 00:33:57,640 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 4: The generation of Jewish students are going to be in 607 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 4: printed by the fact that they feel persecuted, and they 608 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:10,919 Speaker 4: can point to episodes of stark resistance, physical violence, near 609 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:15,799 Speaker 4: physical violence, naked slurs hollered at them by people in 610 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:16,440 Speaker 4: real time. 611 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:19,440 Speaker 1: All of that on campuses is becoming regular. 612 00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:22,399 Speaker 5: And there's a whole contingent of supposedly educated people telling 613 00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 5: them to shut up. Whereas, let's face it, racism on 614 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:30,360 Speaker 5: college campuses exists. But frankly, I can confidently say essentially 615 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:35,320 Speaker 5: no black student or fifty years has encountered anything that stark. 616 00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:38,360 Speaker 5: You have to work to find the quote unquote microaggressions, 617 00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:41,920 Speaker 5: et cetera. And yet anytime the black person claims student 618 00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 5: claims racism, then we have to pretend the college campuses 619 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:48,360 Speaker 5: are op eds of bigotry. That's not fair. And Jewish 620 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:50,879 Speaker 5: students are watching this and they're disgusted, and I would 621 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 5: have to say, I would that's explicable. I understand they're discussed, 622 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 5: well said. 623 00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:57,399 Speaker 1: I think it's really well said. 624 00:34:57,440 --> 00:35:01,640 Speaker 2: And again, this is a really important time, I think 625 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 2: to contemplate what standards for speech are acceptable and unacceptable. 626 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:11,759 Speaker 2: And one reason why, basically since the Civil Rights era 627 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:16,320 Speaker 2: you would not have had overt racism against black students 628 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:20,759 Speaker 2: on campus is because of the societal pressure. We've talked 629 00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:24,720 Speaker 2: about on this show before. If you were a kid 630 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:28,480 Speaker 2: and you were caught on video using a racial slur 631 00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 2: on any college campus in America, a white kid, if 632 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:35,800 Speaker 2: you're a black kid and you rap along to a song. 633 00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:38,000 Speaker 2: Nobody does anything. But if you're a white kid, even 634 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:41,880 Speaker 2: potentially if you're wrapping along to some popular song today, 635 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 2: you could be expelled. You could lose your job, your 636 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:51,880 Speaker 2: basic entire future could vanish overnight because of one word 637 00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:55,600 Speaker 2: that you uttered on a video. There are major societal 638 00:35:55,640 --> 00:36:00,400 Speaker 2: consequences for saying anything that could even be perceived as racist. 639 00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:04,040 Speaker 2: I'm not talking about hurling racial slurs at someone buck, 640 00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:06,879 Speaker 2: I'm talking about rapping along to a Kanye West song 641 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:11,120 Speaker 2: or some other song that is popular at this point 642 00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:14,560 Speaker 2: in time. That's how protective the speech is. When it 643 00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:18,120 Speaker 2: comes to black students, gay students, trans students, you'd be 644 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 2: kicked out immediately chanting death to Israel. If you chanted 645 00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:26,719 Speaker 2: death to black people or death to gay people, your 646 00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:29,719 Speaker 2: entire life is basically over on any of these campuses. 647 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:33,759 Speaker 1: Oh absolutely, And I would say, and this is it 648 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:36,040 Speaker 1: sounds almost crazy as you say it, but then you 649 00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:39,480 Speaker 1: know it's all so true as it is said. If 650 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 1: you had the choice in America today of being somebody 651 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:50,720 Speaker 1: who at sixteen was caught on video saying the racial 652 00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:52,880 Speaker 1: slur that you know, you're never allowed to send her 653 00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:56,120 Speaker 1: any context. Even if you're like reading from a manuscript 654 00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:58,480 Speaker 1: or a court record, right, never allowed to say it 655 00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:01,879 Speaker 1: under any context. By the way, I disagree with that rule. Yes, 656 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:04,719 Speaker 1: we abide bias because this is the rule. Ablide by 657 00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:06,719 Speaker 1: it because this is the rule. I disagree with that rule. 658 00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:10,600 Speaker 1: Meaning the intent of a word always matters. Calling someone 659 00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:14,439 Speaker 1: a slur is wrong and should be punished. A word 660 00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:16,640 Speaker 1: in any context being unable to be said by some 661 00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:19,160 Speaker 1: people is absurd. Actually, And by the way, Christopher Hitchins 662 00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:22,280 Speaker 1: completely for those of you remember Christopher Hitchins, completely agreed 663 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:24,120 Speaker 1: with me on this. He was like, this is a 664 00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:26,959 Speaker 1: we should never have this thing of You can never 665 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:29,160 Speaker 1: say the word to the point clay where people can't 666 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:32,080 Speaker 1: in a court transcript say it. Okay, but let me 667 00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:32,800 Speaker 1: give you an example. 668 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:37,320 Speaker 2: By the way, my last book twenty seventeen, I quoted 669 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:38,360 Speaker 2: Muhammad Ali. 670 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,840 Speaker 1: No person ever called me a blank. 671 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,279 Speaker 2: Right, we can't say lots of words to be fair 672 00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:47,480 Speaker 2: on this radio program, like we can't curse, like all 673 00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:51,480 Speaker 2: sorts of things. The publisher called me, there's not very 674 00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:53,839 Speaker 2: many curse words in my book, but they're all there. 675 00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:57,759 Speaker 2: And they said, hey, we don't think you can use 676 00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:01,200 Speaker 2: the N word in this book because you're a white guy. 677 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:04,280 Speaker 2: And I said, well, it's a quote from Muhammad Ali, 678 00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:08,799 Speaker 2: and they said, we're advising you not to use the 679 00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:10,080 Speaker 2: word quoting him. 680 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:12,000 Speaker 1: This is una, this is wrong. 681 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:15,000 Speaker 2: We're not goingng We're not going to block out words 682 00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:17,920 Speaker 2: like it's important. The context in which he is speaking matters. 683 00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:20,040 Speaker 2: So just to your example, this was only a few 684 00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:23,840 Speaker 2: years ago. The publisher contacted me and said, you can't 685 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 2: quote what what Muhammad Ali said because you're a white guy. 686 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:32,279 Speaker 2: But you can also even just take it into this 687 00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:35,239 Speaker 2: this whole other direction for a second. I remember, I 688 00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:39,359 Speaker 2: think it was professor Christakis was his name, and he 689 00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:42,160 Speaker 2: there was they made the rounds. There was this intellectual 690 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:44,360 Speaker 2: dark web for a while, they called it of different 691 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:47,120 Speaker 2: professors on campus, and I think some of them were, 692 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:49,360 Speaker 2: you know, in earnest. I think some of that was 693 00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:51,680 Speaker 2: just branding and marketing for people who were saying stuff 694 00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:53,799 Speaker 2: that conservatives have been saying for as long as we've 695 00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:56,279 Speaker 2: been conservatives in my case, like you know, forty two years. 696 00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:59,120 Speaker 1: But anyway, you know, it wasn't like, oh my gosh, 697 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:00,960 Speaker 1: these people came up with these new ideas, but some 698 00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 1: of them were saying it on campus and there were 699 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:06,200 Speaker 1: some conversion situation, so I get it, okay, but remember 700 00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:11,880 Speaker 1: Clay Christakis at Yale, it was over costumes for children 701 00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:17,359 Speaker 1: at Halloween. Yeah, and and the Yale student body and 702 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:21,960 Speaker 1: the Yale administration. Yale's got these protests going on everybody. 703 00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:26,200 Speaker 1: I mean, this is the same entity they upheld the 704 00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:30,960 Speaker 1: standard that a like six year old dressing up as 705 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:36,279 Speaker 1: a Native American Pocahontas, for example, a six year old 706 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:40,000 Speaker 1: girl dresses as Pocahontas, she's a white girl. That that 707 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:47,640 Speaker 1: is triggering and makes people feel unsafe. Therefore, Yale, the 708 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:52,120 Speaker 1: university sent out guidance to please not don't have your 709 00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:55,560 Speaker 1: kids for professors. Really, this was don't have your kids 710 00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:59,600 Speaker 1: dress as anything that could be cultural appropriation for Halloween. 711 00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:05,000 Speaker 1: That's how Yale responds on that issue. And then the 712 00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:09,759 Speaker 1: Yale administrators and Yale professors are standing, you know, in 713 00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:13,239 Speaker 1: lockstep in many cases, with kids who are running around 714 00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:16,879 Speaker 1: saying death to Israel. Get the Jews out of here. 715 00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 1: They're committing a genocide. They you know, control you as 716 00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:23,640 Speaker 1: foreign policy and push us into this and that. I mean, 717 00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 1: the stuff that they're saying is so aggressively bigoted and biased. 718 00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:32,640 Speaker 1: But they're making an exception, because that's when that's what 719 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:36,040 Speaker 1: John mccorter's saying. He's like, the rules are joke, friends, 720 00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:37,040 Speaker 1: the rules are a joke. 721 00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:42,040 Speaker 2: Think about how in that context for Halloween, people are 722 00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:44,359 Speaker 2: angry or at a six year old for dressing up 723 00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:47,960 Speaker 2: cowboy and Indian than they are at a grown adult for. 724 00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:49,040 Speaker 1: Pretending that he's a woman. 725 00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:53,280 Speaker 2: Like you're heroic if you dress if you're a man 726 00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:55,640 Speaker 2: and you pretend to be a woman, in the mind, 727 00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:56,800 Speaker 2: you're stunning and brave. 728 00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:58,440 Speaker 1: Even though you look like a dude with long hair 729 00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:00,680 Speaker 1: and too much makeup on. I mean yes, And if. 730 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:03,560 Speaker 2: If you're six and you dress up as cowboys and 731 00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:10,160 Speaker 2: Indians or some other similar esque costume, it's unacceptable. 732 00:41:10,480 --> 00:41:12,640 Speaker 1: But just also on on on the rules that we 733 00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:15,360 Speaker 1: often live by. If you were saying, is it better 734 00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:16,920 Speaker 1: and you could do this with the whole range of things, 735 00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:18,960 Speaker 1: better to be caught on video saying the word that 736 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:23,399 Speaker 1: we're never allowed to say at sixteen, or in terms 737 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:28,360 Speaker 1: of your employment prospects, be accused of manslaughter killing someone 738 00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:31,279 Speaker 1: outside of a bar, you know, in a fight, it's 739 00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:34,040 Speaker 1: far better for your employment prospects to be to be 740 00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:37,799 Speaker 1: charged with manslaughter I think if you're convicted, maybe that's 741 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:40,000 Speaker 1: probably because that's a fine. Here's an easy one. Better. 742 00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:43,040 Speaker 1: You better be a reputation to be charged with manslaughter 743 00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:45,640 Speaker 1: at sixteen than to be said, you know, to say 744 00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:47,280 Speaker 1: that word on video. That's the contrary. 745 00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:51,160 Speaker 2: If you're a college freshman, it would be better for 746 00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:55,600 Speaker 2: you to get multiple DUI's then be caught on video 747 00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:58,200 Speaker 2: using a racial slur. Well, no, no question, that's not 748 00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:02,440 Speaker 2: that's but think about how yes it is multiple duiy's. 749 00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:04,440 Speaker 2: You could have killed somebody you got behind the wheel, 750 00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:07,919 Speaker 2: not once, but twice driving drunk. People will be like, oh, 751 00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,680 Speaker 2: you know, you shouldn't have done it, but we'll still 752 00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:14,279 Speaker 2: hire you video using a racial slur. Your life is 753 00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:15,040 Speaker 2: basically over. 754 00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:19,640 Speaker 1: We have racial power dynamics that are very very much 755 00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:23,040 Speaker 1: at play in this country, just not the ones that 756 00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:27,160 Speaker 1: the media pretends exist. And that's what the Jewish students 757 00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:31,319 Speaker 1: on campus are learning are finding out. Oh there's race 758 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:35,160 Speaker 1: politics in America, it's just not what the media and 759 00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 1: the professori professoriat on campus as it is. You have 760 00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:44,160 Speaker 1: been oppressed for thousands of years if you are Jewish, 761 00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:49,839 Speaker 1: documented without question historically, you have just six months ago 762 00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:55,440 Speaker 1: had the biggest massacre of Jews occur since the Holocaust. 763 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:58,360 Speaker 1: You can say whatever you want about a Jewish person 764 00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:02,400 Speaker 1: on any campus right now with no consequences. And I 765 00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:05,480 Speaker 1: think there are a lot of people out there that 766 00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:07,000 Speaker 1: this has been eye opening. I don't think you and 767 00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:08,520 Speaker 1: I are stunned by it. I think we would have 768 00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:10,640 Speaker 1: seen this coming, oh yeah. But I think a lot 769 00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:12,920 Speaker 1: of people out there on the left who may be 770 00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:18,440 Speaker 1: traditionally Jewish Democrat voters, it's been very eye opening and 771 00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:21,600 Speaker 1: enlightening for them. I mean even during the BLM era, 772 00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:25,440 Speaker 1: you would have seen leftists. Again, there are a lot 773 00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:28,520 Speaker 1: of conservative Jews listening to us right now. I was 774 00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:30,920 Speaker 1: at a passover with my conservative Jewish friends and neighbors 775 00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:32,879 Speaker 1: a couple of nights ago. They already knew this, right, 776 00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:36,439 Speaker 1: they know this reality. But there's this, you know, the 777 00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:39,719 Speaker 1: forty no more than that fifty or sixty percent of 778 00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:43,319 Speaker 1: Democrat voting Jews in this country, there's a contingent of 779 00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:47,520 Speaker 1: them who are really hard left, and you know they go, 780 00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:50,799 Speaker 1: they would have gone to say BLM protests, and still 781 00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:55,680 Speaker 1: alongside some of these some of these you know BLM organizers, 782 00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:57,960 Speaker 1: And I just want to tell them the bom. Some 783 00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:00,560 Speaker 1: of those folks are incredibly anti Semitic. They hate you, 784 00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:04,920 Speaker 1: they hate you. Yes, yes, I know that. The conservative 785 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:06,920 Speaker 1: Jews know that, But some of the left wing Jews 786 00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:10,399 Speaker 1: think that, oh no, it's all we're all the oppressed people. No, no, no, 787 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:15,920 Speaker 1: there's a hierarchy of oppression and Jews are white as 788 00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:18,600 Speaker 1: far as the rest of the left is concerned. Jews 789 00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:20,520 Speaker 1: can argue that as much as they want, and some 790 00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 1: of them are and we've said here israelis represent you know, 791 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:27,560 Speaker 1: a whole range of ethnicity, skin, colors, everything. But at 792 00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:29,120 Speaker 1: the end of the day, the American left thinks that 793 00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:31,719 Speaker 1: Jews are white and white people are oppressors. And that's 794 00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:32,200 Speaker 1: how it goes. 795 00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:36,080 Speaker 2: You're the colonizer, you're the oppressor. Even when you're the victim, 796 00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:39,399 Speaker 2: you are the aggressor. That is the reality of how 797 00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:43,839 Speaker 2: identity politics requires you to be seen. Look, Mother's Day 798 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:47,280 Speaker 2: is coming up soon, and a lot of you out there. 799 00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:50,160 Speaker 2: If you got kids like I do, you're responsible for mom. 800 00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:53,799 Speaker 2: If you got your own mom, your grandma, everybody out there, 801 00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:57,160 Speaker 2: what do you give someone for Mother's Day? 802 00:44:57,239 --> 00:44:58,680 Speaker 1: After a few years, it gets tough. 803 00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:05,600 Speaker 2: Jory clothing, nice pictures, over time you sit around, you're like, man, 804 00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:08,360 Speaker 2: it's Mother's Day again, and you also have anniversaries, and 805 00:45:08,400 --> 00:45:11,040 Speaker 2: you got Christmas, and you got how about Legacy Box. 806 00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:16,920 Speaker 2: How about giving your wife, your mom, your grandma something 807 00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:20,319 Speaker 2: that they can keep forever.

But there's 850 00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:39,480 Speaker 1: this whole movement toward people looking at a lot of 851 00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:42,439 Speaker 1: schools in there in the Red States that everyone's moving 852 00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:45,400 Speaker 1: to because there are great schools where you have better weather, 853 00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:50,440 Speaker 1: better campuses, better overall experience. And I know Austin is 854 00:47:50,560 --> 00:47:53,320 Speaker 1: very very blue, so please the Texans always like Austin 855 00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:56,160 Speaker 1: doesn't count. I'm like, no, no, I get it. But it's 856 00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:58,759 Speaker 1: still a beautiful campus. It's a great school. I've spent 857 00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:00,640 Speaker 1: a few I've walked around on the campus. There are 858 00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:04,440 Speaker 1: a few times. But they they had a protest that 859 00:48:04,640 --> 00:48:06,960 Speaker 1: started like an hour or two ago, and they have 860 00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:09,600 Speaker 1: am I right, you're seeing this? Have they already just 861 00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:15,560 Speaker 1: shared video? National Guard in Austin. They just rolled right. 862 00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:18,239 Speaker 2: They were trying to take over the quad at the 863 00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:21,440 Speaker 2: University of Texas as they have just taken over the 864 00:48:21,480 --> 00:48:24,600 Speaker 2: quad at Harvard is spreading all over the northeast in particular, 865 00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:27,040 Speaker 2: also in the West coast, and there's been some talk 866 00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:29,799 Speaker 2: my school where I went, Vanderbilt, Uh, there have been 867 00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:33,399 Speaker 2: a few southern red states. They were trying to take 868 00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:36,680 Speaker 2: over the quad at the University of Texas and they 869 00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:40,959 Speaker 2: just sent in the full cavalry and just wiped out 870 00:48:41,120 --> 00:48:45,200 Speaker 2: the whole protests. They have arrested everybody, They have cleared 871 00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:48,279 Speaker 2: the entire they have cleared the entire quad. If you've 872 00:48:48,320 --> 00:48:51,359 Speaker 2: been frustrated at the response that you have seen at 873 00:48:51,400 --> 00:48:56,279 Speaker 2: many of these universities, Greg Abbott and the State of 874 00:48:56,320 --> 00:49:00,239 Speaker 2: Texas said, yeah, we ain't playing and this. A lot 875 00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:02,280 Speaker 2: of these schools are not going to have it happen anyway. 876 00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:05,560 Speaker 2: Try this at Texas A and M. You got no 877 00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:08,480 Speaker 2: hope of the students will just roll out and be like, 878 00:49:08,560 --> 00:49:12,040 Speaker 2: screw you guys, Like we're tearing down your campus squad. 879 00:49:12,080 --> 00:49:14,160 Speaker 1: Protest. You should be able to protest. 880 00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:16,759 Speaker 2: I want to be clear, you don't have the right 881 00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:22,200 Speaker 2: to put tints on the quad and take over public 882 00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:26,080 Speaker 2: property for your protest. This should have never been allowed 883 00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:30,480 Speaker 2: to happen anywhere. But Texas is saying this ain't happening. 884 00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:33,040 Speaker 2: This is what I think Ron DeSantis would do. This 885 00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:35,600 Speaker 2: is what I think Governor camp down in Georgia will do. 886 00:49:35,680 --> 00:49:38,200 Speaker 2: This is what I believe Bill Lee and Tennessee Kevin 887 00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:41,279 Speaker 2: Stitton Oklahoma. I could run through a lot of red 888 00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:44,480 Speaker 2: state governors that are just going to say now we're 889 00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:47,560 Speaker 2: not playing this game. And I give credit to Texas. 890 00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:49,920 Speaker 2: They may have to do it multiple times, because these 891 00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:52,200 Speaker 2: kids may get arrested, and they may get let right 892 00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:54,920 Speaker 2: back out on the streets, and they may come right back. 893 00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:57,920 Speaker 2: And it's important to mention. I do think this is 894 00:49:57,920 --> 00:50:00,279 Speaker 2: important to the extent we haven't mentioned at Buck. A 895 00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:02,080 Speaker 2: lot of these people I don't think are even enrolled 896 00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:06,440 Speaker 2: at the university. They are professional agitators who are showing 897 00:50:06,520 --> 00:50:09,320 Speaker 2: up and trying to get into a tent on campus, 898 00:50:09,400 --> 00:50:12,560 Speaker 2: and they're not even enrolled at the university. They're just 899 00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:16,880 Speaker 2: professional protesters, same people who got all fired up about BLM. 900 00:50:16,920 --> 00:50:19,480 Speaker 2: Remember how they would pull in with trucks and suddenly 901 00:50:19,520 --> 00:50:22,600 Speaker 2: there's all this material that gets distributed, all these signs, 902 00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:25,920 Speaker 2: all these tents aren't suddenly showing up by accident. This 903 00:50:26,040 --> 00:50:30,160 Speaker 2: is an organized attempt, probably funded by Middle Eastern interest. 904 00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:32,160 Speaker 2: If you are China, if you want me to really 905 00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:34,000 Speaker 2: kind of dive into where this is coming from. 906 00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:38,600 Speaker 1: But Texas saying we're not doing this. You know, we 907 00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:42,879 Speaker 1: had mentioned the first hour that there are I don't 908 00:50:42,880 --> 00:50:46,200 Speaker 1: know if we call them unlikely heroes, but some unlikely 909 00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:49,399 Speaker 1: heroic moments that are coming out of this whole situation too. 910 00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:52,640 Speaker 1: And we had that caller last hour who said, I 911 00:50:52,680 --> 00:50:55,240 Speaker 1: appreciate you guys, give it to me straight. I'm aware, 912 00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:58,759 Speaker 1: Clay and I are aware that John Fetterman may be 913 00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:04,400 Speaker 1: playing some for each here by making him seem like 914 00:51:04,520 --> 00:51:07,200 Speaker 1: he's reasonable on this because there's really only two. There's 915 00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:10,279 Speaker 1: crazy and normal on this issue, right, there's not a 916 00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:12,719 Speaker 1: lot of middle. Like, if you think anything about what 917 00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:16,520 Speaker 1: Hamas did on October seventh wasn't as heinous as anything 918 00:51:16,560 --> 00:51:20,440 Speaker 1: could ever be, you know, you're crazy. So there's crazy 919 00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:23,800 Speaker 1: and there's normal on this issue. And Fetterman is going 920 00:51:24,800 --> 00:51:27,520 Speaker 1: hard in the direction of normal on a regular basis 921 00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:32,040 Speaker 1: here on this issue. Here he is just straight up 922 00:51:32,120 --> 00:51:36,239 Speaker 1: chewing out some of these anti Semitic pro Hamas protestors. 923 00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:37,480 Speaker 1: This is seventeen player. 924 00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:41,400 Speaker 6: It's completely reasonable to want to cease fire or to 925 00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:44,520 Speaker 6: have a different view on that. Absolutely that's a democracy, 926 00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:51,120 Speaker 6: but it is not appropriate or illegal or it's helpful 927 00:51:51,560 --> 00:51:54,480 Speaker 6: to advance your argument. If you show up in a Starbucks, 928 00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:57,040 Speaker 6: I mean a Starbucks with a bullhorn and start yelling 929 00:51:57,120 --> 00:51:59,600 Speaker 6: at people, and that doesn't make you noble. It just 930 00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:02,440 Speaker 6: makes you. I'm not suggesting that you have to agree 931 00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:05,360 Speaker 6: with our v my view, but it's just saying it 932 00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:09,200 Speaker 6: doesn't really allow you to disrupt lives and to inflict 933 00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:12,719 Speaker 6: those kinds of of damages on people that are just 934 00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:14,799 Speaker 6: trying to get on with their lives. 935 00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:17,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, that that is the critical distinction. It's essentially what 936 00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:19,920 Speaker 1: you were saying in essence a moment ago, which is 937 00:52:20,160 --> 00:52:23,920 Speaker 1: if people wanted to gather peaceably with their with their 938 00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:26,440 Speaker 1: dumb placards. They do this all the time. I remember College, 939 00:52:26,560 --> 00:52:31,480 Speaker 1: the movie PCU, as in Politically Correct University. PCU is 940 00:52:31,640 --> 00:52:34,880 Speaker 1: brilliant on this issue. Although I don't think PCU is 941 00:52:34,920 --> 00:52:38,480 Speaker 1: politically correct enough to be made anymore. I don't think 942 00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:40,719 Speaker 1: you could get away with making that movie now. But 943 00:52:40,800 --> 00:52:43,640 Speaker 1: that's a whole other thing. At the time, it was, 944 00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:45,560 Speaker 1: you know, maybe a little bit on the edgy side. 945 00:52:45,960 --> 00:52:48,480 Speaker 1: It's a fun watch, I will tell you, but it's 946 00:52:48,520 --> 00:52:54,799 Speaker 1: just about these these campus activists, whether it's the vegans sorry, uh, 947 00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:58,319 Speaker 1: the you know sort of the black student group, the uh, 948 00:52:58,440 --> 00:53:00,640 Speaker 1: all these different sort of pro I can't remember them now, 949 00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:03,400 Speaker 1: all these different protest entities that are on campus that 950 00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:06,440 Speaker 1: are upset about the feminists Ovia feminists in the nineties. 951 00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:09,440 Speaker 1: A lot of fun with that one, all this stuff. 952 00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:12,360 Speaker 1: You know, if you want to make your point, you 953 00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:14,080 Speaker 1: can make your point. That's not what these people are doing. 954 00:53:14,120 --> 00:53:16,520 Speaker 1: And when you go into a Starbucks and shout at 955 00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:19,520 Speaker 1: people with a bullhorn, or even shout at Alec Baldon, 956 00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:21,600 Speaker 1: as much of a jerk as that guy is, you're 957 00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:24,480 Speaker 1: the jerk. You are the jerk when you're doing that. 958 00:53:24,560 --> 00:53:28,280 Speaker 1: And even Fetterman knows it. So golf clap for John Fetterman. 959 00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:31,200 Speaker 1: You mentioned all that, Buck, and it took me back 960 00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:32,920 Speaker 1: in time. You can still look this up. Do you 961 00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:35,600 Speaker 1: know what The first thing that I ever had published 962 00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:40,640 Speaker 1: in my entire life was in nineteen ninety seven. I 963 00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:43,759 Speaker 1: was a freshman at George Washington University. You guys, can 964 00:53:43,840 --> 00:53:46,880 Speaker 1: somebody can google this and pull it up. There was 965 00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:51,920 Speaker 1: a controversy on campus because a school administrator at GW 966 00:53:52,040 --> 00:53:57,719 Speaker 1: BUCK used the phrase rule of thumb and a about 967 00:53:57,719 --> 00:54:00,000 Speaker 1: the thickness of the stick that you hit a woman with. Yeah, 968 00:54:00,280 --> 00:54:05,920 Speaker 1: a left wing feminist chick. They had a protest demanding 969 00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:10,719 Speaker 1: that the campus administrator be fired because the language was 970 00:54:10,760 --> 00:54:14,279 Speaker 1: demeaning because historically rule of thumb was what you could, 971 00:54:14,320 --> 00:54:17,440 Speaker 1: according to her, beat a woman with based on the 972 00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:21,520 Speaker 1: width of your thumb A rod and I wrote at 973 00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:25,680 Speaker 1: eighteen years old, Hey, this is and I'm paraphrasing, this 974 00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:30,319 Speaker 1: is absolutely ludicrous. Context matters. The idea that you would 975 00:54:30,320 --> 00:54:34,360 Speaker 1: fire anybody over this is crazy. At eighteen that was 976 00:54:34,360 --> 00:54:37,279 Speaker 1: actually considered to be somewhat of a liberal opinion. Now 977 00:54:37,320 --> 00:54:40,400 Speaker 1: it would be a conservative opinion. I've stayed pretty much consistent. 978 00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:41,800 Speaker 1: You can go look it up GW. 979 00:54:41,880 --> 00:54:49,600 Speaker 2: Hatchet student newspaper in that controversy, I wait in so 980 00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:52,919 Speaker 2: say whatever you want, make whatever argument you want to make, 981 00:54:54,160 --> 00:54:58,880 Speaker 2: do not bring your friggin tent and take over a 982 00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:01,920 Speaker 2: university campus and think that you're going to be able 983 00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:04,880 Speaker 2: to do it. And I give credit State of Texas 984 00:55:05,160 --> 00:55:08,040 Speaker 2: Vanderbilt University, which is a private school here in Nashville. 985 00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:12,080 Speaker 2: Red states seem more open to being able to solve 986 00:55:12,120 --> 00:55:15,160 Speaker 2: this problem than Blue states and blue cities by and 987 00:55:15,239 --> 00:55:15,799 Speaker 2: large two. 988 00:55:17,480 --> 00:55:20,200 Speaker 1: So far, and I hope it continues. It's just going 989 00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:24,120 Speaker 1: to be good for everything in these red states, you know, 990 00:55:24,160 --> 00:55:28,080 Speaker 1: the Big three of Texas, Tennessee, Florida in terms of migration, 991 00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:30,560 Speaker 1: but also in the schools. This is going to be 992 00:55:30,600 --> 00:55:32,520 Speaker 1: good for the schools in those states. You know in Florida. 993 00:55:32,600 --> 00:55:36,520 Speaker 1: Ronda Santis just came out and said again to clarify, 994 00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:39,600 Speaker 1: if you block a road as a protest, you're getting 995 00:55:39,719 --> 00:55:42,680 Speaker 1: arrested and you're going to be prosecuted. And he made 996 00:55:42,760 --> 00:55:44,399 Speaker 1: the point that we've made on the show many times, 997 00:55:44,400 --> 00:55:46,800 Speaker 1: which is people need to get to their jobs, People 998 00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:49,480 Speaker 1: need to get to the hospital ambulances. Get caught in 999 00:55:49,560 --> 00:55:52,120 Speaker 1: that stuff, like the idea that you could just shut down, 1000 00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:55,239 Speaker 1: you could steal hours of somebody's life and put them 1001 00:55:55,239 --> 00:55:58,520 Speaker 1: through that frustration because you're upset about climate change, your 1002 00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:02,759 Speaker 1: Palestine or whatever this is. We are not a civilized 1003 00:56:02,760 --> 00:56:05,080 Speaker 1: place if we allow lunatics to do this stuff. 1004 00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:08,840 Speaker 2: Now, I think it would only take putting, like passing 1005 00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:10,799 Speaker 2: specific law and saying hey, you have to go to 1006 00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:14,279 Speaker 2: prison for six months, no expense, no no if sand 1007 00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:17,799 Speaker 2: or Butts, if you block a road for protests, regardless 1008 00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:20,600 Speaker 2: of what your what your motivation is. In the United States, 1009 00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:21,439 Speaker 2: you're going to jail. 1010 00:56:21,719 --> 00:56:23,840 Speaker 1: Oh you know, sometimes you look at like things you 1011 00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:27,799 Speaker 1: get automatic sentencing for mandatory minimums for Yeah, we talked 1012 00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:30,480 Speaker 1: about this poor guy coming back. 1013 00:56:30,280 --> 00:56:33,359 Speaker 2: From Yeah, we have the audio of that to play 1014 00:56:33,400 --> 00:56:35,040 Speaker 2: when we come back to close out Yes. 1015 00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:37,319 Speaker 1: K Coast. Look, I mean, you know, I know the 1016 00:56:37,360 --> 00:56:40,279 Speaker 1: Biden State Department is full of a bunch of you know, 1017 00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:44,160 Speaker 1: gosh darn communists. I know that. But maybe in their 1018 00:56:44,320 --> 00:56:48,640 Speaker 1: in their hardened communist hearts, they could remember we got 1019 00:56:48,680 --> 00:56:52,319 Speaker 1: an American American dad and husband who's facing twelve years 1020 00:56:52,360 --> 00:56:56,640 Speaker 1: in prison for what is clearly an accident. He had 1021 00:56:56,680 --> 00:56:59,400 Speaker 1: a couple of rounds. Uh. You know, he had a 1022 00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:01,640 Speaker 1: couple of rounds of ammunition on him when he was 1023 00:57:01,680 --> 00:57:04,879 Speaker 1: going through the airport security to come home, not even 1024 00:57:04,880 --> 00:57:06,920 Speaker 1: to get into the country. Yeah, not like he's going 1025 00:57:06,960 --> 00:57:08,640 Speaker 1: to do anything the Turks and Caicos. Is he trying 1026 00:57:08,640 --> 00:57:11,480 Speaker 1: to get back to America. It was a mistake. Everyone 1027 00:57:11,480 --> 00:57:14,759 Speaker 1: knows it's a mistake. They have a mandatory system now 1028 00:57:14,760 --> 00:57:17,160 Speaker 1: where they'll send them to prison for twelve for twelve years, 1029 00:57:17,400 --> 00:57:20,560 Speaker 1: twelve years for twelve years, guys from Oklahoma City, where 1030 00:57:20,680 --> 00:57:22,960 Speaker 1: we'll have the audio for you when we come back. 1031 00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:25,640 Speaker 2: So I think CBS News did a story on this 1032 00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:29,240 Speaker 2: just I almost think it's a PSA for everybody out there. 1033 00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:31,480 Speaker 2: You just came back from the Caribbean. He went with 1034 00:57:31,560 --> 00:57:35,640 Speaker 2: his wife on a vacation trip to Turks and Caicos, 1035 00:57:35,760 --> 00:57:38,360 Speaker 2: which I don't know the overall crime rates in Turks 1036 00:57:38,360 --> 00:57:40,840 Speaker 2: and Caicos. I would think that it's probably pretty safe. 1037 00:57:41,480 --> 00:57:43,480 Speaker 2: It's it's pretty really it's not. 1038 00:57:43,600 --> 00:57:47,000 Speaker 1: It's some of these like Trinidad and Tobago is uh 1039 00:57:47,520 --> 00:57:50,560 Speaker 1: uh or Tobago in the US Virgin Islands. I'm still 1040 00:57:50,720 --> 00:57:52,480 Speaker 1: licensed there so far as I know. Some of those 1041 00:57:52,560 --> 00:57:54,840 Speaker 1: islands actually have a lot of crime for the eys 1042 00:57:54,840 --> 00:57:55,400 Speaker 1: of the island. 1043 00:57:55,440 --> 00:57:57,400 Speaker 2: But I would think Turks and Cacos would be more 1044 00:57:57,480 --> 00:58:00,000 Speaker 2: like Saint Bart's where you just were, where it's very safe. 1045 00:58:00,120 --> 00:58:03,640 Speaker 1: But maybe i'm play The only crime in St. Bart's 1046 00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:08,360 Speaker 1: is wearing designer labels that are too ostentatious. They will 1047 00:58:08,360 --> 00:58:10,840 Speaker 1: throw you in prison if your Gucci logo is too big. 1048 00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:15,360 Speaker 2: I'm just saying, if your wife's ring is not enough carrots, 1049 00:58:15,960 --> 00:58:17,800 Speaker 2: not enough carrots, I think they might throw you in 1050 00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:18,400 Speaker 2: jail there. 1051 00:58:18,680 --> 00:58:22,440 Speaker 1: It does offend their eyes when you are not wearing 1052 00:58:22,640 --> 00:58:24,919 Speaker 1: loro piano in public. There. 1053 00:58:25,320 --> 00:58:28,760 Speaker 2: I don't know what that is there. You go, I'm 1054 00:58:28,800 --> 00:58:31,520 Speaker 2: not cool enough, I'm legit. I've never heard of that 1055 00:58:31,520 --> 00:58:33,960 Speaker 2: in my entire life. Look, you want to make somebody 1056 00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:35,600 Speaker 2: and go to the Caribbean. I got an idea. 1057 00:58:35,840 --> 00:58:38,880 Speaker 1: How about some insight about the US stock market? Ask 1058 00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:41,680 Speaker 1: our friend Mark Chakin, who writes and edits reports on 1059 00:58:41,720 --> 00:58:45,240 Speaker 1: the markets that cut through the noise and the nonsense 1060 00:58:45,280 --> 00:58:48,720 Speaker 1: and bring you great ideas.

He 1062 00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:54,800 Speaker 1: invented three new indices back in his Wall Street days 1063 00:58:54,800 --> 00:58:57,800 Speaker 1: for the Nasdaq, and he's predicted in writing some of 1064 00:58:57,800 --> 00:59:02,400 Speaker 1: the biggest market shifts of the past decade, including the 1065 00:59:02,560 --> 00:59:05,880 Speaker 1: recent huge surgeon AI stocks. He says a lot of 1066 00:59:05,920 --> 00:59:08,600 Speaker 1: Americans could be missing out on a critical turning point 1067 00:59:08,600 --> 00:59:12,320 Speaker 1: in this AI induced frenzy. Mark says this is a 1068 00:59:12,320 --> 00:59:15,560 Speaker 1: new dawn for US stocks and predicts dozens of specific 1069 00:59:15,600 --> 00:59:18,360 Speaker 1: companies will be impacted in just the next ninety days time. 1070 00:59:18,720 --> 00:59:20,600 Speaker 1: So Mark has agreed to share one of his favorite 1071 00:59:20,640 --> 00:59:23,840 Speaker 1: AI stocks to buy now with our listeners.
