Yes, the food 15 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 3: was amazing. It's a beautiful city. I love it. It 16 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 3: just has a crime problem. 17 00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:46,120 Speaker 2: I'm going to a family wedding there on Saturday, so 18 00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:48,600 Speaker 2: I'll be up there for a couple of nights, so 19 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 2: that should be entertaining. 20 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:52,600 Speaker 1: Okay, Buck, I want to circle. 21 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 2: Back around on the way we finished the first hour, 22 00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:58,600 Speaker 2: because several of you reached out and pointed out what 23 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 2: I think is actually really important here, and I haven't 24 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 2: seen anybody make this argument. And I credit as I 25 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:09,400 Speaker 2: always do this audience again eight hundred and two two 26 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:11,520 Speaker 2: two eight a two will also take some of your calls. 27 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 2: A lot of intelligent people out there. It's a big audience, 28 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:18,280 Speaker 2: a lot of intelligent, creative thinkers out there. Buck, Let's 29 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 2: kind of go down the path here of the cocaine 30 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:25,119 Speaker 2: and why it matters. They shut down the White House 31 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 2: because they were concerned this was anthrax, which is how 32 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,479 Speaker 2: we became aware that this story existed in the first place. 33 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 2: They knew they had found a white powder, they were 34 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:35,759 Speaker 2: concerned that it might be anthrax. 35 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 1: They shut it down. 36 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,039 Speaker 2: If the White House, which is using its media allies 37 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,200 Speaker 2: to say we may never know who brought this cocaine 38 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,560 Speaker 2: into the White House, if they are going to make 39 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 2: that argument, then Buck, it raises this question. That would 40 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 2: then mean that if someone had brought anthrax into the 41 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 2: White House, if this had been determined to be a 42 00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,559 Speaker 2: legitimate terror attack, that the White House wouldn't be able 43 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 2: to uncover who brought anthrax into the White House. I 44 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 2: don't believe that's true, but if it is true, it 45 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 2: would mean that the most secure building that a residence 46 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 2: in the United States is actually so insecure that someone 47 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 2: could bring in anthrax, undertake a legitimate terror attack inside 48 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 2: of the White House, and we would be unable to 49 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,639 Speaker 2: know who did it. So this to me, we got 50 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 2: a lot of people who work in the White House 51 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 2: press corps who listen to this show. I would love 52 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,080 Speaker 2: to hear Karine Jean Pierre pressed, Wait a minute, you 53 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 2: thought this might be anthrax? Does that mean that someone 54 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 2: could bring anthrax into the White House, institute a legit 55 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 2: terror attack, and the Biden administration is telling us it 56 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 2: would be impossible to figure out who that person was. 57 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 2: That's a really good angle that deserves to be explored 58 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,919 Speaker 2: because I think not only one would it be awful 59 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 2: if it were true, but it also exposes the illegitimacy 60 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 2: of the argument and the deceit fullness of it to 61 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 2: argue to the American public, Oh, we may never know 62 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 2: who brought this cocaine in. 63 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 1: Do you think they will ever tell us who did it? 64 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 4: I do not. 65 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 2: I think the pressure should be ratcheted up to the 66 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 2: extent that this should be significant. 67 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 1: And let me say this, I'm not do you think 68 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 1: they're actually gonna tell us? Though? You think we're gonna 69 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: find out? 70 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:28,080 Speaker 2: I think that it is if it's Hunter, Buck, I 71 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,959 Speaker 2: think they could spin it. If it's Hunter, And I said, 72 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 2: as I finished off the first hour, the evidence to 73 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 2: me actually starts to make given it's a vip entrance, 74 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 2: given that we know. I saw someone say on on 75 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 2: social media, funny analogy. They were like, this is like 76 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 2: McDonald's saying when they had Hamburgers stolen, we have no 77 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:50,119 Speaker 2: idea who might have stolen the hamburgers. And like the hamburglar, 78 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 2: you know, like sitting right out there on the on 79 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 2: the side of the building, you know, like, oh, I don't. 80 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 1: Know who took the hamburgers either. 81 00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 2: If you have a drug addict in the White House 82 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 2: who is consist instantly been using drug addicts documenting it recklessly, 83 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 2: I think the number one suspective who might bring cocaine 84 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 2: into the White House is clearly Hunter Biden. 85 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 1: If it's Hunter, I think they might. 86 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 2: Come out Buck and say this is this is what 87 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 2: addiction does. The President loves the playbook, the President loves 88 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 2: the son, the whole. That's what they always They always 89 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 2: say something along those lines. Whenever we find out more 90 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 2: about the extent of Biden family corruption, which is what 91 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 2: is so important here. They always pretend that this is 92 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 2: about some personal animis toward a hundred. I don't really 93 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 2: care how many strippers hunter By hangs out with. I 94 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 2: don't care how much drugs he does. The fact that 95 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,839 Speaker 2: he has a security clearance should trouble every American you know. 96 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: Think about this buck. They are arguing right now to 97 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 1: the American. 98 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 2: Public, Donald Trump having documents year's old documents in his 99 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 2: private residence under Secret Service protection in locked private areas 100 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 2: of his club is such an American security threat that 101 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 2: he should go to prison for the rest of his life. 102 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 2: While they are simultaneously allowing Hunter Biden, whom we know 103 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:14,239 Speaker 2: has deep and extensive ties to the Chinese Communist Party 104 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 2: that he has sold for millions of dollars in ill 105 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 2: begotten gains, who is also a drug addict who is 106 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 2: engaged in reckless behavior both in his personal and private lives. 107 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,479 Speaker 2: He should be able to get on Air Force one 108 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 2: and go to Camp David and hang out with his 109 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:36,039 Speaker 2: dad and hear every single significant American security issue going on, 110 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 2: and he should be able to just come in and 111 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 2: out gallivant through the White House whenever he wants. 112 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,359 Speaker 3: And that's why the Chinese give him millions of dollars 113 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 3: to play right right. This is why because he's He's 114 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:53,159 Speaker 3: like the perfect vessel for influence peddling and perhaps even 115 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 3: information transic not something else that anyone's really. 116 00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:00,080 Speaker 2: You were in the CIA, can you think of a 117 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 2: better potential asset if you were China? Then the drug addled, 118 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 2: reckless son of the President of the United States who 119 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 2: is so dementia riddled that he has no idea what's 120 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 2: going on. I can't think of any more of a 121 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:18,040 Speaker 2: security threat than Hunter Biden being allowed to hang out 122 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,839 Speaker 2: for all of these top secret things that are going 123 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,479 Speaker 2: on on a regular basis with his dad who has 124 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:25,720 Speaker 2: no idea what he's saying from one moment to the next. 125 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 2: I mean, if you were in charge of recruiting assets, Buck, 126 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 2: can you think of a better asset like if China 127 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 2: had the Hunter Biden equivalent, would we not want to 128 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,840 Speaker 2: do everything we could to get our fingers into Hunter 129 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 2: Biden's world if it was China. 130 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 3: This is why no one is No one looks at China. 131 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:49,479 Speaker 3: You know, the Chinese Communist Party carve out who was 132 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 3: sending him money. 133 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 1: I'm like, what are they doing?

The Chinese Communist Party bribes 140 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 3: to Hunter, money well spent. From their perspective, Oh yes, 141 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 3: it's a perfect a perfect person to be compromising in 142 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 3: that way. 143 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 2: I would love if I were trying to corrupt the 144 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 2: Chinese government to have the equivalent of Hunter Biden. That 145 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 2: we could be corrupting. If Kim Jong un had a 146 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 2: son in North Korea who was as incompetent as Hunter Biden, 147 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 2: and we could give him a few million dollars and 148 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 2: know everything that was going on in the inner reaches 149 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 2: of the North Korean government. That would be money well 150 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 2: spent by our Chinese, by our security apparatus. The Chinese 151 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,119 Speaker 2: know what they're doing. Ukraine knew what they were doing. 152 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 2: The fact that we're still allowing this guy to have 153 00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 2: unfettered access to top a Mayormerican secrets through his dementia 154 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 2: adult dad while trying to put Donald Trump in prison 155 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 2: for the rest of his life because of paper storage 156 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 2: disputes is maybe the most compelling sign of a two 157 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 2: tier justice system that has ever existed in the history 158 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 2: of American justice. 159 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 3: Yes, and yet I have been perhaps a little salty 160 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 3: and a little cynical all along, but I've said they're 161 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 3: not gonna Hunter's not going to I mean, and I 162 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 3: think it was surprising for people because it was so blatant, 163 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 3: the cover up sweetheart deal thing that Hunter got. But 164 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 3: that's why when I look at this, at this cocaine situation, 165 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 3: there's this is too much of a liability for the 166 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 3: powers that be to let this get taken to its fruition, 167 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,440 Speaker 3: taken to the endpoint here of who is responsible for this, 168 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 3: so they will the system will cover it up. And 169 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 3: this is the same reason like people that want to 170 00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 3: understand what's really what was really going on with the Epstein thing, like, 171 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,439 Speaker 3: how is it that that guy was able to get 172 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 3: at well, once you see that his whole game was 173 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 3: compromising in the most you know, dead to rights, it's 174 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 3: all over for you kind of weigh incredibly powerful wealthy people, 175 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,200 Speaker 3: then he was able to manipulate aspects of And we 176 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 3: still don't have the full answers on that one, but 177 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,199 Speaker 3: once you see the weak points in the system and 178 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 3: the manipulation that is possible. None of this stuff really 179 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 3: becomes as surprising anymore. And I just think that that's 180 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 3: maybe the only way we find out who the cocaine 181 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:30,560 Speaker 3: belongs to. 182 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: Was there a cocaine bear movie? Is an assign? Didn't 183 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: they make a cocaine bear movie recently? 184 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 3: I mean, obviously no bears in the White House, But 185 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:41,599 Speaker 3: I never saw that movie. I wonder if it was 186 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 3: worth watching. 187 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 1: The only way we. 188 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 3: Find out is if it's someone who is so low 189 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 3: level that they will feed that person to the wolves publicly, 190 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 3: and you know that's the only way. But I even 191 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 3: then I don't see it happening. I think they're gonna 192 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 3: say we could never know, we'll never know who the real. 193 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 1: Cocaine baggy person was. 194 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,960 Speaker 2: Use if that's true, and it could be, that's where 195 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 2: the media needs to grill Kareem John Pierre and just say, okay, 196 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 2: pretend this was anthrax instead we shut down the White House. 197 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 2: For people out there who say, oh, it's just cocaine, 198 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 2: why should we care about that much, Well, they shut 199 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 2: down the White House because they were concerned it was 200 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 2: anthrax and a terror attack. They're telling us that they 201 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 2: wouldn't be able to figure out who brought Anthras into 202 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 2: the White House if they're telling us they can't find cocaine. 203 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 2: Second part on this, Buck, you may be right about 204 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,960 Speaker 2: low level staffer. And this is where the Democrats play 205 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:34,200 Speaker 2: the game. Well, they'll have some low level staffer say, 206 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 2: oh my god, I brought cocaine. I've had an addiction 207 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 2: issue with cocaine. I'm going to go to rehab, and 208 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,320 Speaker 2: then you know what will happen, Buck, That low level 209 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:45,079 Speaker 2: staffer will come out and get a two hundred and 210 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:48,679 Speaker 2: fifty thousand dollars a year job somewhere in the Democrat 211 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 2: party sinecures where they're taken care of going forward, right, 212 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 2: That's what would end up happening, because there won't be 213 00:10:56,200 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 2: any prosecution, there won't be any significant crime brought. Will 214 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 2: say hey, hey, you know, for the good of the party, 215 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 2: will you fall on the sword twenty five year old, 216 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 2: and the twenty five year old will say yes, say 217 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 2: that he or she has an addiction issue. They will 218 00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 2: then get go to you know, rehab whatever it is, 219 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 2: and then get a two hundred and fifty thousand dollars 220 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:21,080 Speaker 2: job and be snorting coke off off off strippers Hunter 221 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 2: Biden style. 222 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,559 Speaker 1: Within a few months. You remember this, You're gonna hold 223 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: this in your back pocket. Jack the old Potomac two step. 224 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 1: That's how they play the game. 225 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 2: Man. 226 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:32,440 Speaker 1: You know. 227 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 3: Sometimes you got with the Democrat machine. Yeah, maybe you 228 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 3: fall on your sword, but they'll patch you up and 229 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 3: they'll give you some gig at MSNBC afterwards, or you'll 230 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 3: get some sinecure some posts somewhere where you are overpaid. 231 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 3: You're doing a BS job and no one cares. That's 232 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 3: how That's how they do it. This is very effective. 233 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 3: I would know it's very powerful tool they have. 234 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:58,199 Speaker 2: But I would bet it's Hunter because ultimately, Buck, I 235 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,680 Speaker 2: think this was a uh. I can see Hunter coming 236 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 2: in on his phone. This is my if I were 237 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 2: constructing how this happens. Hunter, who has no respect for 238 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 2: White House security because he believes he's above all law, 239 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,199 Speaker 2: is on the phone with somebody on his cell phone 240 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 2: as he's coming in, and he recognizes that he's looking 241 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 2: for something in his pocket and he's probably under the 242 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 2: influence of a substance. Because I don't buy the fact 243 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 2: that Hunter Biden is suddenly clean and doesn't use any 244 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 2: drugs at all. Anymore, and he reaches into his pocket 245 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 2: to look for something, pull stuff out, puts it on 246 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 2: a shelf, doesn't pay attention to what he's taken out 247 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 2: of his pocket because he's on a phone call, not 248 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 2: paying attention, no one speaking to him, just keeps walking 249 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 2: right through. And then you know, forty five minutes an 250 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 2: hour later, somebody suddenly says, oh my god, there's a 251 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 2: baggy of white powder here. 252 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:51,959 Speaker 1: If it's Hunter, yeah, does that? Does he get does 253 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: he get bagged? So to speak? 254 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 2: This is where Buck they are sitting around right now. 255 00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 2: Ordinarily I think there it's Hunter. He hasn't adiction. They 256 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 2: would come out with that. I think it would probably 257 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 2: kill his plea agreement because technically, under his plea agreement, 258 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,719 Speaker 2: he has to submit to two years of drug testing though, 259 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 2: and if he tests positive, he goes to jail. So 260 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:14,959 Speaker 2: if they come out with someone else, I actually think 261 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 2: the most likely thing is it's a random twenty five 262 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 2: year old who was low level and says, oh, it 263 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 2: was me, I brought cocaine into the White House. 264 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 1: Ah man. 265 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 3: This is because if it were Hunter taking the fall 266 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 3: for it, and that deals that strike, that throws the 267 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:32,680 Speaker 3: plea agreement do you think, Buck, if that were to 268 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:35,200 Speaker 3: happen with coke, then people would start to think that 269 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 3: this was actually want to get really crazy here, it's 270 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 3: a Friday everybody a Democrat deep state plot to finally 271 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:46,079 Speaker 3: push Biden aside by having Hunter finally be Oh my gosh, 272 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 3: he's he's Clay's excited, He's sticking the line. 273 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 2: I love, I love this is this is Cia Buck, 274 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 2: this is what if it wasn't Hunter and they actually 275 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 2: just planted cocaine in the White House because they knew 276 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 2: that everybody would just presume it's Hunter. Now that would 277 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 2: now who would be the that would be the DNC 278 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 2: going next level? I don't I think it's probably just 279 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 2: Hunter with the cocaine, because we know Hunter has cocaine 280 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 2: all the time. But that would be unbelievable because none 281 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:17,960 Speaker 2: of us would believe that it was anybody other. 282 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 1: Than than Hunter. I think you're AIA director. That's a 283 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 1: hell of a plot. 284 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 3: I think you're never going to find out who it is, 285 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 3: but we'll see make it and make a great chapter 286 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 3: for the novel.

He was abiding campaign advisor 337 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 4: and then appointed to serve as DC as attorney by 338 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:22,880 Speaker 4: Joe Biden in the fall of twenty twenty one. Now 339 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 4: Matthew Graves is in the unusual position of prosecuting both 340 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 4: federal and local crimes in Washington, d C. However, to 341 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 4: your point, buck, his fixation on the four Hour disturbance 342 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:40,200 Speaker 4: now two and a half years ago. As he continues 343 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,880 Speaker 4: to round up capital site seers. Most of the new 344 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 4: charges have nothing to do with thessaulting police or vandalizing 345 00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:50,120 Speaker 4: the building. This is back to obstruction and civil disorder 346 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 4: trespassing charges. 347 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 5: Et cetera. 348 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 4: At the same time, Matthew Graves is allowing Washington, d C. 349 00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:02,240 Speaker 4: To descend into the wild West, you know, violent chaos. 350 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:07,119 Speaker 4: Every month there, many of the crimes, including carjackings, are 351 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 4: at all time highs. They had ten fatal shootings the 352 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:17,719 Speaker 4: first five days of July, including this Afghany interpreter, also 353 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 4: a high school wrestling coach who is in Washington, d C. 354 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:25,200 Speaker 4: For professional development conference. Killed at eight o'clock in the morning. 355 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 4: So in the meantime as he has you know, goes 356 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 4: to one hundred percent prosecution rate d seven percent of 357 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 4: the cases brought to him by DC police. So Matthew 358 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 4: Grays is not just you know, under fire and should 359 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:48,960 Speaker 4: be on this side of the aisle for his selective 360 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:53,640 Speaker 4: political prosecution of Trump supporters, but also is taking heat 361 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 4: for the rising violent crime wave in Washington. 362 00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 2: D C. 363 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 3: Is there the case that in DC were the DC 364 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 3: City Council tried to pass a bill that would have 365 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 3: made a lot of very serious crimes even less strongly 366 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:18,200 Speaker 3: punished and less aggressively prosecuted, and then biden't, like basically 367 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 3: didn't or the Senate Democrats didn't stand in the way 368 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 3: of the Senate I believe it was shooting it down 369 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:25,720 Speaker 3: or was it the House I can't remember now. 370 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 4: I believe it was that Biden came out under pressure, 371 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 4: you know, to not allow the DC Council to minimize 372 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:38,199 Speaker 4: and basically decriminalize a lot of the violent offenses. 373 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 3: It was a Senate, by the way, just ever knows 374 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:43,920 Speaker 3: the Senate voted to overturn a d C law enacted 375 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 3: that they the Democrats had to improve police accountability. Juliet 376 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 3: would have done things like send people to prison for 377 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:53,920 Speaker 3: less time for carjacking, which has like tripled in the 378 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:55,119 Speaker 3: last five years in d C. 379 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 4: Right, So, I mean Matthew Graves is not solely to blame. 380 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 4: Of course, this is what we're seeing in major cities 381 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 4: across the country. And it's so not only are the 382 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 4: political leaders decriminalizing of violent offenses, their police forces are 383 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 4: bleeding officers. And that's certainly the case in Washington, d C. 384 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 4: There was a report out today that even Metropolitan Police 385 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:29,560 Speaker 4: Department is moving officers from violent areas to safer areas, 386 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,920 Speaker 4: and this is probably to keep their officers in the 387 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:36,880 Speaker 4: ranks because they've had such attrition over the past few years, 388 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 4: especially since twenty twenty, like a lot of major cities. 389 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:42,959 Speaker 4: So of course it's this mixed message. But the bottom 390 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 4: line is that Matthew Graves is responsible for enforcing the 391 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 4: laws in Washington, d C. And not trustpassing laws, not 392 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:53,919 Speaker 4: parading in the capital, which he's charged his offices charged 393 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 4: over nine hundred Americans with, but for you know, gun 394 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 4: crime and carjackings to your point, which is out of 395 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 4: control in Washington, d C. And of course filling out 396 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:09,919 Speaker 4: into the suburbs. So you know, he needs to be 397 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:14,400 Speaker 4: held accountable for what's happening in Washington, d C. And 398 00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:18,360 Speaker 4: his selective prosecution of January sixth, and of course, according 399 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:22,880 Speaker 4: to the IRS whistleblower Matthew Graves, declining to consider any 400 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 4: charges against Hunter Biden for his income tax crimes committed 401 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,639 Speaker 4: in twenty fourteen and twenty sixteen in Washington, d C. 402 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,120 Speaker 3: You know, I just got this breaking news alert from 403 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:37,439 Speaker 3: CNN Julie speaking of January sixth and the twenty twenty election. 404 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 3: A disciplinary committee has officially recommended Rudy Giuliani be disbarred 405 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 3: in Washington, d C. For his efforts on behalf of 406 00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 3: Donald Trump. I think it's important for people to see 407 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:56,160 Speaker 3: that they're using the criminal justice system to go after 408 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 3: people involved in January sixth, but they're also using the 409 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 3: legal and legal system and legal circles, if you will, 410 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:07,720 Speaker 3: professionally to punish lawyers who were taking up the Trump 411 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 3: side of things in twenty twenty. 412 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 4: That's right, It's what California Buyer Association is also attempting 413 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:17,159 Speaker 4: to do with John Eastman, who of course prepared the 414 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 4: memo suggesting that Mike Pence could halt the certification of 415 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:25,640 Speaker 4: the Electoral College tun on January sixth. So they are 416 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 4: also there's actually a well funded organization who are targeting 417 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,159 Speaker 4: any of the lawyers. Of course, we've seen them target 418 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:38,320 Speaker 4: Sidney Powell, Jenna Alis, Rudy Giuliani, John Eastman, any of 419 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 4: the attorneys who were lawfully performing their job as counsel 420 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:48,719 Speaker 4: to the president and filing lawsuits to uncover election fraud 421 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:52,399 Speaker 4: in these swing states. So that's just one part of 422 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 4: the I mean, just this egregious and very well funded, 423 00:22:56,520 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 4: well coordinated apparatus to punish anyone, whether Donald Trump, his attorneys, 424 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 4: or a voter of his who walked into a public 425 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,920 Speaker 4: building on a Wednesday afternoon, took selfies in the rotunda 426 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 4: and left ten minutes later. This is set, And of 427 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 4: course this will is not anywhere close to concluding. And Buck, 428 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,440 Speaker 4: as you know we've talked about numerous times, will reach 429 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 4: its apex when Special Consul Jack Smith indicts Donald Trump, 430 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 4: probably some of his attorneys, possibly some White House aids, 431 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 4: and even maybe a few Republican congressmen for the events 432 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:31,640 Speaker 4: of January. 433 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,119 Speaker 1: Six That's exactly what I was going to ask you. 434 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:35,919 Speaker 3: So that's I was going to say, We know you 435 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,880 Speaker 3: believe that they're going to the Special Council is going 436 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 3: to have a January sixth related charge against Donald Trump's really, 437 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 3: but now you're telling me that it may it may 438 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 3: be a whole really Trump inner circle prosecution bonanza of sorts. 439 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:54,679 Speaker 1: I just how does that play out him? 440 00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:56,920 Speaker 3: Because they're also making it harder for all these individuals 441 00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:58,360 Speaker 3: to get lawyers to defend them. 442 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:02,399 Speaker 4: Yes, well, look at well Nawta, who is the so 443 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 4: called vallet. He really struggled to sign a local Florida attorney. 444 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:10,359 Speaker 4: Of course, since it's being prosecuted in southern Florida, he 445 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 4: has an attorney, Stanley Woodward, who's defended other January sixth defendants, 446 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 4: but he also needed a Florida lawyer and finally got 447 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 4: someone to sign on this week. But look, Buck, it 448 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 4: has to be more people than Donald Trump for the 449 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 4: criminal indictment of January sixth, because I believe that they 450 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 4: will charge him with at least one conspiracy charge, which 451 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 4: is also what they did in the classified documents case. 452 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 4: They brought conspiracy to obstruct and that's how they roped 453 00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:43,159 Speaker 4: in this core nauta. So they're going to have to 454 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 4: have co conspirators conspirators with Donald Trump for January sixth, 455 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 4: and it very well could be people like Rudy Giuliani 456 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 4: or John Eastman. You know, it could be White House aids. 457 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:58,879 Speaker 4: There's been rumblings about what Mark Meadows has been up 458 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,200 Speaker 4: to the chase of staff, if he's cooperating in some 459 00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 4: capacity or he will be charged. You had representatives Scott 460 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:10,399 Speaker 4: Perry from Pennsylvania who the FBI snatched his cell phone 461 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:12,160 Speaker 4: right out of his hand the day after the mar 462 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:15,679 Speaker 4: Lago raid, took an imprint of the data from his 463 00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 4: cell phone and now has that, and there's court wranglings 464 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 4: about access to what he had on his phone. So 465 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 4: this could be there could be even more major than 466 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 4: just another criminal indictment of Donald Trump, but it could 467 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 4: involve half a dozen up to a dozen people. 468 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 3: Julie Kelly, everybody subscribed to her substack declassified with Julie Kelly. 469 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 1: Julie, appreciate you being with us. 470 00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 4: Thanks Buck half great weekend. 471 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 1: There are some bonifide patriots looking after your good health. 472 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:49,679 Speaker 1: Over at Chalk. 473 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:53,120 Speaker 3: This is the nutritional supplement company based in Texas, creating 474 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 3: products to maximize your energy so you can enjoy life. 475 00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 3: They offer a wide range of products, but two bundles 476 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 3: in particular are grabbing the attention of this audience.

And 501 00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 2: Buck and I have discussed this in some degree, but 502 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 2: we haven't gone into the detail, but a lot of 503 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 2: discussion about the Affirmative Action case from the Supreme Court 504 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 2: which ended the use of race in college and university 505 00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 2: admissions at least in theory because of discrimination against Asian people. 506 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 2: And they're actually really interesting and fascinating studies that have 507 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 2: been done into affirmative action. Heather, and you can lay 508 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 2: out these studies and what the data actually reflects that 509 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,679 Speaker 2: show that when you are admitted to a school that 510 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 2: academically you would not be admitted to but for your race, 511 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,679 Speaker 2: the results are actually worse than if you went to 512 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 2: a school where your academic profile more accurately matched the 513 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 2: school to which you were admitted. 514 00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 5: Explain, that's absolutely right. We would have more black students 515 00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:24,240 Speaker 5: graduating in STEM fields without racial preferences, because they would 516 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 5: go to schools where they go on the same conditions 517 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,200 Speaker 5: as every other student. They're admitted to schools for which 518 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 5: they are academically qualified, rather than being catapulted into schools 519 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 5: for which they are not academically qualified. So there was 520 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 5: a very good study done at Duke University that found that, 521 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 5: contrary to what one might expect, more black male freshmen 522 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 5: enrolled at Duke intending to major in STEM, but by 523 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:54,240 Speaker 5: the end of the senior year there were very few 524 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 5: black male STEM majors. Why because the black students have 525 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 5: been admitted with oh for a standard deviation below those 526 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 5: of their what in SAT scores compared to wide and Asians, 527 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 5: and they struggled in their STEM classes. It was pitched 528 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 5: at a level for which they were not prepared and 529 00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 5: so they all ended up switching out of those STEM 530 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:20,760 Speaker 5: majors and going into Black studies and whatnot. And we 531 00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:24,600 Speaker 5: know that in law schools, which is the best set 532 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 5: of data we have on objective test score measures, at 533 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 5: the end of the first year of law school black students, 534 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 5: who are almost universally admitted to law schools with racial preferences. 535 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 5: Fifty two percent of all black law students nationwide end 536 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 5: up in the bottom tenth of their law school class 537 00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 5: after their first year, and about two thirds end up 538 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:55,120 Speaker 5: at the bottom twenty five percent of their schools. Had 539 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 5: they been admitted to schools for which they were qualified, 540 00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 5: they would have succeeded. Take this out of the difficult 541 00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 5: issue of race, and let's look at sex. And let's 542 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 5: imagine that MIT admitted me because it needed more sex 543 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,480 Speaker 5: paroity or gender parity, which of course they do, and 544 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 5: which is a complete irrelevancy. Sex is not relevant to 545 00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:19,760 Speaker 5: whether you are turning out good engineers or not. But 546 00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 5: let's say they admitted me with six hundred and fifty 547 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 5: on my math SAT on an eight hundred point scale, 548 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:28,600 Speaker 5: and all of my colleagues who'd been admitted because they 549 00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 5: were actually qualified for MIT, unlike me, who was not qualified, 550 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 5: I would be among students with eight hundreds on their 551 00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 5: math SATs. What would happen in my freshman calculus class? 552 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 5: I would struggle. I would not be able to keep up. 553 00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 5: I may decide that MIT was not for me, and 554 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 5: what would happen is I would be surrounded by this 555 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 5: hornet swarm of diversity consultants that would come and say 556 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:58,440 Speaker 5: to me, well, you're the victim of rape culture. You're 557 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:01,600 Speaker 5: in a misogynist culture. That's why you're not succeeding. That's 558 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:05,720 Speaker 5: why you feel uncomfortable here. That's what happens to black students. 559 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 3: They yes, I mean the calculus is sexist. Obviously, that's 560 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:12,040 Speaker 3: the real challenge that you're setting up there. If we 561 00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 3: were to extrapolate this all the way. We're speaking to 562 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 3: Heather MacDonald, author of the War on Cops, and she's 563 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 3: got an article out affirmative action was hurting black students. 564 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:22,800 Speaker 1: It's in the Spectator. 565 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 3: Heather, What do we know about the way this has 566 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 3: played out with something that you know, you want a 567 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 3: good lawyer, right, I mean, you know, just talk to 568 00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 3: Hunter and Biden, like you want to have a good lawyer, 569 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 3: but you really want to have a good doctor. You 570 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:43,080 Speaker 3: really want to have the best possible heart surgeon. What 571 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 3: do we know about the way the MCATs, which is 572 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 3: the standardized test for medical school, have been changed or 573 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:52,760 Speaker 3: not not changed the test, but you know they changed 574 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:56,120 Speaker 3: the standards based on affirmative action in the past. 575 00:31:57,240 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 5: Well, black students wouldn't be admitted to medical schools with 576 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 5: MCAT scores and GPAs from college that would be automatically 577 00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:09,360 Speaker 5: disqualifying if presented by Whites or Asians, and as predicted 578 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 5: by this mismatch theory, they end up at the bottom 579 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:13,920 Speaker 5: of their class. And so what we're now doing is 580 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 5: changing the standards for licensing doctors. After the second year 581 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 5: of medical schools, students take medical students take something called 582 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 5: Step one of the US Medical Licensing Exam that used 583 00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 5: to be a graded test, and it would be used 584 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 5: by hospital residencies to select their residents. Because black students 585 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:39,040 Speaker 5: scored so poorly on the Step one exam, again predictably 586 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:42,560 Speaker 5: because they've all been catapulted into schools for which they 587 00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:48,200 Speaker 5: are not competitively qualified, the licensing board decided to get 588 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 5: rid of scores on step one and just go to 589 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:54,760 Speaker 5: a pass failed basis, so that residencies selecting their residents 590 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:59,360 Speaker 5: would not know how students rank. And the pressure is 591 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:03,239 Speaker 5: now on course to change step one step two, and 592 00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 5: pressure is on. We are already getting rid of the 593 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 5: traditional standards for medical society honor societies, moving away from 594 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 5: academic achievement into community involvement, which basically means you're agitating 595 00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 5: for more racial preferences in medical schools or more racial 596 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:23,080 Speaker 5: hiring in medical faculty as a student. 597 00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 3: You know, Heather, I know you're up on this too. 598 00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:29,320 Speaker 3: In the recent or firmative Action decision that came down, 599 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:36,000 Speaker 3: Justice Jackson had this line about how I think it 600 00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:41,080 Speaker 3: was a black baby, is has double the survival rate 601 00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:44,200 Speaker 3: if that baby has a black doctor delivering it versus 602 00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 3: a white doctor. 603 00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 1: Do you know the passage I'm talking about? 604 00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 5: Yes, And it was completely misread. The study itself was wrong, 605 00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:56,160 Speaker 5: and she misread this. It's preposterous. This is a topic 606 00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 5: that is really taboo to study. But I was recently 607 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:02,160 Speaker 5: told about a healthy coymoust at Harvard who figured out 608 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:05,320 Speaker 5: a way to come up with some randomized control sample 609 00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 5: to see how people with heart attacks that were driving 610 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 5: on the roads did in hospitals and managed to correlate 611 00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:17,360 Speaker 5: it to race of doctors. And the results were so 612 00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:19,880 Speaker 5: damning that the guy didn't publish the paper because he 613 00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:23,600 Speaker 5: knew that if he did, his career would be over. 614 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:28,000 Speaker 5: And so it just goes to short. You know, either 615 00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:30,439 Speaker 5: we really do not believe that there's such a thing 616 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 5: as academic merit, and that it's actually possible that there's 617 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:38,600 Speaker 5: some people that actually no calculus and I don't. There's 618 00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:41,399 Speaker 5: some people who actually understand physics and I don't. If 619 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:43,640 Speaker 5: we don't believe that, then les, let's get rid of 620 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:47,960 Speaker 5: all testing. Let's just admit students based on a lottery. 621 00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:51,920 Speaker 5: You know, if the schools really believe this, they're complete hypocrites. 622 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:56,600 Speaker 5: They take absolutely contradictory positions that on the one hand, oh, well, 623 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:58,720 Speaker 5: we don't really want to pay too much attention to scores. 624 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,840 Speaker 5: On the other hand, they continue to do so. But 625 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:04,279 Speaker 5: if they really didn't believe that the scores matter, they 626 00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:08,279 Speaker 5: should just admit students by lottery. But of course it 627 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:12,480 Speaker 5: does matter. We all experience there's people who are better 628 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 5: at academic tasks than others, and those are the ones 629 00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:20,440 Speaker 5: that we should be selecting, as you say, for our doctors, 630 00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:24,680 Speaker 5: for our pilots. And right now everywhere we look racist 631 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:28,440 Speaker 5: trumping merit, and we have decided as a society that 632 00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:31,760 Speaker 5: we would rather have diversity than meritocracy, because at present 633 00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:34,759 Speaker 5: you can't have both. The academic skills gap is so 634 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:39,239 Speaker 5: great that any time at an institution proudly proclaims we 635 00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 5: are pursuing diversity. Here's how you uncode that statement. It 636 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:45,120 Speaker 5: means we have jettison to meritocracy. 637 00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:47,720 Speaker 1: I think this is also important, Julie. 638 00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:50,160 Speaker 2: I wanted to circle back to the first bit of 639 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:54,680 Speaker 2: information you were sharing, that Duke study. Sorry, Heather, Julie's 640 00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 2: coming up next, Heather, that first study that you shared 641 00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:02,520 Speaker 2: with us. What you're saying, I think this is so 642 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:05,439 Speaker 2: important and I want to hammer at home is if 643 00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:08,000 Speaker 2: you are a black kid who's admitted, let's say, to Duke, 644 00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:11,400 Speaker 2: and you go in thinking, hey, I did pretty well. 645 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 2: I want to be a doctor, and you go in 646 00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:18,000 Speaker 2: or scientist, and you go into that first year biology 647 00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:21,760 Speaker 2: class and you get a d because you are going 648 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:25,239 Speaker 2: head to head with the most supremely talented kids who 649 00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 2: all want to be doctors. Right, There's a huge percentage 650 00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:29,520 Speaker 2: of kids that go into Duke thinking I want to 651 00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:31,520 Speaker 2: be a doctor, and then you get the cold, hard 652 00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:34,080 Speaker 2: slap of reality in physics, or you get it in 653 00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:38,279 Speaker 2: high level biology, and you end up dropping back and 654 00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:42,399 Speaker 2: you're a major in some soft social sciences because it's 655 00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:44,960 Speaker 2: harder to get exposed. I think this is true and 656 00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:47,000 Speaker 2: I was a history major. I think it's harder to 657 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:50,160 Speaker 2: get exposed in history or English, which is why a 658 00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:52,440 Speaker 2: lot of you out there ended up history or English 659 00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:55,800 Speaker 2: majors like me. Then you would if you went into 660 00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:58,920 Speaker 2: a hard science or a hard math. But if that 661 00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:02,200 Speaker 2: kid had not gone on to Duke, Let's say instead, 662 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 2: and I'm not trying to take a shot here, but 663 00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:06,680 Speaker 2: let's say that kid who goes to Duke instead goes 664 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:10,320 Speaker 2: to NC State. He might end up a doctor because 665 00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:14,040 Speaker 2: the quality of the class in math, in science, the 666 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:17,399 Speaker 2: difficulty of it is better matched with his or her 667 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:21,600 Speaker 2: academic I think that's so key. You're actually penalizing the 668 00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:24,520 Speaker 2: kid and he's not achieving what he otherwise would have 669 00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:27,319 Speaker 2: by going to a school that's so far above his 670 00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:28,480 Speaker 2: academic ability. 671 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:33,000 Speaker 5: It's an absolutely cruel and heartless and self involved policy 672 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:36,280 Speaker 5: on the part of these academic administrators that are determined 673 00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:39,400 Speaker 5: to look out on their faces. You know, they're suitably 674 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:43,080 Speaker 5: diverse faces. It's putting black students at a disadvantage. It 675 00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:46,080 Speaker 5: is subjected them to psychological stress. And the real key 676 00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:51,000 Speaker 5: here is that this whole discourse is so nauseatingly elitist. 677 00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:55,000 Speaker 5: The heads of Harvard and Yale and UC Berkeley all say, well, 678 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:58,040 Speaker 5: where will we get the future leaders of tomorrow if 679 00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:02,280 Speaker 5: we can't have racial affirmative action that catapults black students 680 00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:06,000 Speaker 5: into our schools who are not prepared. The idea is 681 00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:09,560 Speaker 5: is that if they do go to North Carolina State University, 682 00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:12,960 Speaker 5: or you see Riverside or you see a Santa Cruz 683 00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:15,600 Speaker 5: or Ervine, that that's just the end of the world. 684 00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:20,279 Speaker 5: They can't possibly compete, they can't possibly become leaders. That's 685 00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:23,440 Speaker 5: just a lie. And the mystery in this whole debate 686 00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 5: is why these colleges that are not the name brand 687 00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:31,319 Speaker 5: IVY leagues haven't stood up for themselves and said, excuse me, 688 00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:35,400 Speaker 5: if students go to my school, they will be just 689 00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:39,480 Speaker 5: as prepared to go to medical school or law school. 690 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:41,960 Speaker 5: They will be just as prepared to be leaders in 691 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:48,160 Speaker 5: their community. We offer a completely sound and excellent education. 692 00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:50,920 Speaker 5: But we're all supposed to believe that if it's the 693 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:53,640 Speaker 5: end of the world for black students to go to 694 00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:57,279 Speaker 5: a school for which they are academically matched with thousands 695 00:38:57,320 --> 00:39:01,120 Speaker 5: and thousands of other white and Asian and Hispanic students, 696 00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:05,759 Speaker 5: why should any student suffer that disability? Why don't we 697 00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:10,759 Speaker 5: shut down North Carolina State University, Bates College, you know, 698 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:14,880 Speaker 5: you name it, North Carolina, any of them, all, the 699 00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:18,400 Speaker 5: whole California State university systems. Shut them all down because 700 00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:20,239 Speaker 5: it's the end of the world for somebody who goes there, 701 00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:22,200 Speaker 5: and so that everybody can go to Harvard and Yale. 702 00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:24,520 Speaker 1: Excellent point, Heather McDonald. 703 00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:27,040 Speaker 3: Everybody check out her piece in the Spectator on how 704 00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:29,680 Speaker 3: furmative action was hurting the black students. Heather, thanks so 705 00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:30,359 Speaker 3: much for being with. 706 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:31,440 Speaker 5: Us, Thanks so much. 707 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:34,319 Speaker 1: Claim, But look, this could go. 708 00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:36,960 Speaker 3: Down as the worst government powagram in history. According to 709 00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:40,040 Speaker 3: brilliant economists and author of doctor Nomi Prince, our financial 710 00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:43,480 Speaker 3: system could soon spiral into chaos. She's speaking about a 711 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:47,239 Speaker 3: dangerous new program put forward by the Bid administration. This 712 00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:49,760 Speaker 3: isn't about banning gas powered cars, but about a total 713 00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:52,600 Speaker 3: ban on cash itself. She sees the launch of a 714 00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:56,000 Speaker 3: new technology called fed now. It's an attack on our cash, 715 00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:58,200 Speaker 3: according to doctor Prince, and also on an attack on 716 00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:01,080 Speaker 3: your privacy.

I think 767 00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:48,680 Speaker 2: it was that we had added and certainly a bunch 768 00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:51,400 Speaker 2: more coming. That's a credit to you guys, the growth 769 00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:55,360 Speaker 2: of the show as we now embark on this third year. 770 00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:57,959 Speaker 1: Super Falls. Is that we're talking about Sue Falls. My bad. 771 00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:01,520 Speaker 2: I hope we're on in Peer South Dakota. Or it's 772 00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:04,560 Speaker 2: where my grandfather was allegedly born. I've never this is 773 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:05,439 Speaker 2: like family lore. 774 00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:07,759 Speaker 3: You know, it's tough to sometimes track this stuff down 775 00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:10,879 Speaker 3: for sure, but we believe he was born in uh 776 00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:13,520 Speaker 3: sou Fall, South Dakota. So I got to be careful 777 00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:15,759 Speaker 3: here because this is where I always I've had a 778 00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:22,719 Speaker 3: ongoing inability to distinguish between North and South Dakota. And 779 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:25,320 Speaker 3: I know right now in the Dakota's people are losing 780 00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:29,000 Speaker 3: their minds. But yes, Peer South Dakota. 781 00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:31,759 Speaker 2: Do you know I always had pronounced it, Pierre, did 782 00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:33,279 Speaker 2: you know that buckets pronounced Peer? 783 00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:37,080 Speaker 1: Well, why not just say yes? Because you know I'm 784 00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:37,680 Speaker 1: on the spot here. 785 00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:39,719 Speaker 2: I know I did not get to know I had 786 00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:42,759 Speaker 2: I had South Dakota furious because I was like when 787 00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:45,480 Speaker 2: I was doing sports talker radio, we added an affiliate, 788 00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:48,240 Speaker 2: and what I thought was Pierre South Dakota. I was 789 00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:50,880 Speaker 2: talking about how excited I was to add it, and 790 00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:55,000 Speaker 2: I the the good people of Peer South Dakota let 791 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:57,160 Speaker 2: me know I had no idea. I remember I state 792 00:43:57,200 --> 00:44:00,680 Speaker 2: capitals back in the day. I've been saying it wrong regionally, 793 00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:02,719 Speaker 2: you know, for out in Long Island. There are some 794 00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:05,560 Speaker 2: stops on the L I R R, some towns that 795 00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:08,279 Speaker 2: I've spent time in in the past, and you know, 796 00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:11,319 Speaker 2: you can read it and you'll say, oh, run Konkoma, 797 00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:14,520 Speaker 2: but actually it's run Konkama that's how you got to 798 00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:18,680 Speaker 2: say it, or Patchog, you know, so it's it's a local. 799 00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:21,360 Speaker 3: There's local flavors some of these things. One that I 800 00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:24,919 Speaker 3: know is absolutely the case, the variations. And we're we're 801 00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:27,319 Speaker 3: number one in this city, so I should make sure 802 00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:28,279 Speaker 3: that I get it as right. 803 00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:28,680 Speaker 1: As I can. 804 00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:31,480 Speaker 3: The variations on the town that I grew up in 805 00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:36,400 Speaker 3: New York. Hearing of as Louisville is fascinating. There's a 806 00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:38,480 Speaker 3: lot of a lot of different ways. There's you know, 807 00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:42,400 Speaker 3: Louisville and you know, I can't even do them all. 808 00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:44,879 Speaker 3: There's a lot of different stuff. I'm a yeah, I'm 809 00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:48,840 Speaker 3: a Louisville person. Is the way that I always pronounce it. Obviously, 810 00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:51,279 Speaker 3: Southern accents factor in. You're talking about the great state 811 00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:54,319 Speaker 3: of Kentucky right now. One of my favorites is when 812 00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:57,960 Speaker 3: it's a city that is named after a city. 813 00:44:58,440 --> 00:45:02,120 Speaker 2: So there is outside of Lexington, Kentucky, where we're also 814 00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:07,879 Speaker 2: on a great town called vers Sales, Kentucky. If you're 815 00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:09,239 Speaker 2: sitting out there and you're like, oh, I wonder how 816 00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:13,880 Speaker 2: that's spelled. It's named after the French palace Versailles. But 817 00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:19,799 Speaker 2: if you pronounce Versailles Kentucky, you will be absolutely ridiculed 818 00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:21,600 Speaker 2: to the height of and they'll have no idea what 819 00:45:21,640 --> 00:45:25,600 Speaker 2: you're talking about. It's Versailles, Kentucky. Versailles is the palace, 820 00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:28,280 Speaker 2: even though it was named after the palace Versailles. 821 00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:31,919 Speaker 1: Notre Dame is the cathedral Notre Dame.

I always felt like 838 00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:13,640 Speaker 2: that was an unfair teaching move to really kind of 839 00:46:13,680 --> 00:46:16,080 Speaker 2: taunt you to go with the none of the above 840 00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:18,200 Speaker 2: as the multiple choice answer question. 841 00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:19,600 Speaker 1: Absolutely. 842 00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:19,919 Speaker 6: Oh. 843 00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:23,040 Speaker 3: I had mentioned the View and we were talking with 844 00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:26,680 Speaker 3: Heather McDonald a few moments ago last hour about affirmative 845 00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:30,120 Speaker 3: action and where it stands Now thought this was very 846 00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:37,520 Speaker 3: illuminating SoundBite from the View, where they do very astute 847 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 3: constitutional and legal analysis on a daily basis. I mean, 848 00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:45,000 Speaker 3: Joy Behar could practically sit on the Supreme Court herself. 849 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:47,040 Speaker 1: But here we go. 850 00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:50,759 Speaker 3: Here is the sense you get from Sonny Houston of 851 00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:52,160 Speaker 3: the View about affirmative action. 852 00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:56,080 Speaker 6: Play it the lived experience of a white kid in 853 00:46:56,160 --> 00:47:01,600 Speaker 6: Appalachia or perhaps on a potato farm in Idaho, Orland 854 00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:07,200 Speaker 6: or Brooklyn is different in this country for a black student, 855 00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:10,719 Speaker 6: whether that black student be wealthy or not, because this 856 00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:13,080 Speaker 6: country was founded on slavery. 857 00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:14,920 Speaker 1: Ah. 858 00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:17,200 Speaker 3: Now, this is very interesting because you've been hearing this 859 00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:21,600 Speaker 3: adversity scores. Let's talk about adversity scores. Once you start 860 00:47:21,640 --> 00:47:24,080 Speaker 3: to dig into the real numbers and look at what's 861 00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:25,920 Speaker 3: really going on, what you find is that a lot 862 00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:29,040 Speaker 3: of these schools, you know, there's been all this talk 863 00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:34,200 Speaker 3: about legacies, there have been multiple generations now of affirmative 864 00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:38,200 Speaker 3: action school attendees. At the most elite schools, their children 865 00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:42,080 Speaker 3: get legacy too, obviously, right, and the benefit of affirmative 866 00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:45,400 Speaker 3: action on top of legacy admissions. So if you attack 867 00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:48,759 Speaker 3: legacy admissions, it's not as clear as some people want 868 00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:50,120 Speaker 3: to think it is that it's just going to go 869 00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:54,520 Speaker 3: after like the upper class or upper middle class white 870 00:47:54,560 --> 00:47:58,080 Speaker 3: and Asian students. But even beyond that, so we are 871 00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:01,520 Speaker 3: to believe that to be wealthy and black in America 872 00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:05,160 Speaker 3: is still a This is what she is saying. She's 873 00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:09,359 Speaker 3: arguing that that is still such a disadvantage, so that 874 00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:13,759 Speaker 3: a wealthy black student applicant to Harvard should get to go. 875 00:48:14,560 --> 00:48:18,080 Speaker 3: You know, say, if you know father or mother works 876 00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:21,000 Speaker 3: in media or makes millions and millions of dollars, should 877 00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:25,880 Speaker 3: get to go to Harvard over a kid who you 878 00:48:25,880 --> 00:48:28,640 Speaker 3: know grew up in a single parent household, who has 879 00:48:28,680 --> 00:48:32,080 Speaker 3: been trying to help raise his three or four siblings, 880 00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:35,240 Speaker 3: who is white, from a low income household. 881 00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:36,080 Speaker 1: That is the. 882 00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:40,280 Speaker 3: Belief of the elites, as you just heard from Sunny Houston. 883 00:48:40,680 --> 00:48:43,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, and this is where I think all of you 884 00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:46,760 Speaker 2: out there would agree if I gave you an option. 885 00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:52,279 Speaker 1: Okay, there's a binary choice. You can either be the 886 00:48:52,440 --> 00:48:53,000 Speaker 1: son or. 887 00:48:53,080 --> 00:49:00,320 Speaker 2: Daughter of a white family growing up in Appalachia right Tucky, 888 00:49:01,719 --> 00:49:08,160 Speaker 2: West Virginia, Tennessee, an area where there is not a 889 00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:12,440 Speaker 2: lot of opportunity and your parents make a combined income 890 00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:14,799 Speaker 2: of thirty thousand dollars a year. 891 00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:17,360 Speaker 1: Okay, you have that option. 892 00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:21,680 Speaker 2: But you can be white, or you can be the 893 00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:27,160 Speaker 2: son or daughter of multi millionaire black parents. Is there 894 00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:32,239 Speaker 2: anyone who's saying, from a pure advantage perspective, being a 895 00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:36,840 Speaker 2: white poor kid cancels out being a black rich kid. 896 00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:39,560 Speaker 2: I don't think there's anybody out there in America who 897 00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:43,640 Speaker 2: is being honest buck that would say, yes, being white 898 00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:49,640 Speaker 2: is worth me being not a multi millionaire. That's the test, right, 899 00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:52,239 Speaker 2: That's what Sonny's really arguing. And if she were on here, 900 00:49:52,280 --> 00:49:55,040 Speaker 2: and if she actually had to answer honest questions, because 901 00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:57,400 Speaker 2: that's the challenge that we have in media today. People 902 00:49:57,440 --> 00:49:59,600 Speaker 2: like Sonny Houstin get to talk to an audience of 903 00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:03,400 Speaker 2: stupid people and say things that are profoundly dishonest that 904 00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:06,799 Speaker 2: they wouldn't even be able to make the case for it. 905 00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:08,600 Speaker 2: Like you or I, if we went on the view, 906 00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:12,200 Speaker 2: would say the exact same thing that we say on 907 00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:15,160 Speaker 2: this show, and people could agree or disagree with it, 908 00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:17,680 Speaker 2: and they could quiz us on it, and we would 909 00:50:17,719 --> 00:50:21,840 Speaker 2: defend our position. Sonny Hostin won't come on this show, 910 00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:24,279 Speaker 2: and if she did, if I just asked her that question. 911 00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:27,239 Speaker 2: So wait, you're telling me that a poor white kid 912 00:50:27,239 --> 00:50:30,400 Speaker 2: in West Virginia whose parents make a combined thirty thousand 913 00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:35,239 Speaker 2: dollars a year is more advantaged than your kids are, 914 00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:38,320 Speaker 2: who are now the son and daughter of multimillionaires. 915 00:50:38,360 --> 00:50:40,960 Speaker 3: I think we can even be more blatant the poor 916 00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:43,920 Speaker 3: kid in let's say Harlan County, Kentucky, which is one 917 00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:46,279 Speaker 3: of the per capita of poorest counties in the entire 918 00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:52,360 Speaker 3: United States and overwhelmingly white. A poor kid from Harlan County, Kentucky. 919 00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:58,400 Speaker 3: His white privilege is so magical. I was so powerful, powerful, 920 00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:05,319 Speaker 3: so profound, that it is more advantageous for him in 921 00:51:05,360 --> 00:51:09,799 Speaker 3: life in America. Then let's say a black you know, 922 00:51:09,840 --> 00:51:11,600 Speaker 3: young man who's black, who grows up in New York 923 00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:14,640 Speaker 3: City and has an investment banker father, and you know, 924 00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:18,400 Speaker 3: a school president mother or something, and you know, with 925 00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:20,760 Speaker 3: a combined household didn't come of you know, two million 926 00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:21,439 Speaker 3: dollars a year. 927 00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:25,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, that Harvard should take the latter candidate over the 928 00:51:25,520 --> 00:51:34,160 Speaker 1: former because his white privilege is that powerful. That is delusional, delusional. 929 00:51:34,440 --> 00:51:36,520 Speaker 2: And I'll give you an example from my own life. Buck, 930 00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:39,800 Speaker 2: you mentioned Harlan County, Kentucky. All of the Travis family. 931 00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:42,759 Speaker 2: I'm not even sure if we're on here. If we are, 932 00:51:43,080 --> 00:51:45,520 Speaker 2: blow me up and let me know on Twitter, all 933 00:51:45,560 --> 00:51:49,400 Speaker 2: of the Travis families from Muhlenberg County, Kentucky. That is 934 00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:53,759 Speaker 2: southern Kentucky. Still not a super wealthy community to this day. 935 00:51:54,440 --> 00:51:57,080 Speaker 2: My grandfather, who I was named after, had an eighth 936 00:51:57,160 --> 00:52:00,840 Speaker 2: grade education, dropped out of school to work in the 937 00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:04,960 Speaker 2: mines in this area of Kentucky where there's lots of 938 00:52:04,960 --> 00:52:07,960 Speaker 2: white people, decided that he didn't want to work the 939 00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:11,040 Speaker 2: rest of his life in the minds because his father 940 00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:14,719 Speaker 2: died of black lung disease and came down to Nashville 941 00:52:14,760 --> 00:52:16,799 Speaker 2: and spent the rest of his life working in the 942 00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:21,920 Speaker 2: DuPont factory in Old Hickory, Tennessee. I don't think that 943 00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:24,440 Speaker 2: he had a massive amount of white privilege. That's not 944 00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:28,480 Speaker 2: even speaking today, Buck, that's speaking one hundred years ago. 945 00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:32,040 Speaker 2: He was born in nineteen oh five. He his dad 946 00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:34,600 Speaker 2: died of black lung disease, he tried to avoid dying 947 00:52:34,600 --> 00:52:36,960 Speaker 2: of black lung disease and worked in a factory. 948 00:52:36,560 --> 00:52:37,400 Speaker 1: His whole life. 949 00:52:38,239 --> 00:52:40,880 Speaker 2: I'm pretty confident that there wasn't a great deal of 950 00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:44,719 Speaker 2: white privilege in Muhlenberg County, Kentucky for his entire life. 951 00:52:44,840 --> 00:52:48,399 Speaker 2: That's one hundred years ago, not even today. You think 952 00:52:48,440 --> 00:52:52,400 Speaker 2: about the way these schools also have been doing admissions 953 00:52:52,480 --> 00:52:56,840 Speaker 2: up to this point. They will, for all intents and purposes, 954 00:52:57,000 --> 00:53:01,200 Speaker 2: treat the you know, and there are you know, I 955 00:53:01,560 --> 00:53:04,120 Speaker 2: went to school with some of these kids when we 956 00:53:04,120 --> 00:53:05,000 Speaker 2: were kids, when we were younger. 957 00:53:05,080 --> 00:53:06,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, so I know, I've seen. 958 00:53:06,400 --> 00:53:13,239 Speaker 3: This, a multi millionaire black student from Africa, you know, 959 00:53:14,120 --> 00:53:19,279 Speaker 3: the son of a senior official for a Nigerian you 960 00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:22,239 Speaker 3: know oil company for example, or the son of a 961 00:53:22,800 --> 00:53:25,000 Speaker 3: and the guy you know, someone who owns like some 962 00:53:25,040 --> 00:53:27,319 Speaker 3: of the biggest malls in Kenya, or you know some 963 00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:33,040 Speaker 3: of these. That student who arrives at Harvard is treated 964 00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:38,000 Speaker 3: as a student that goes in the diversity category of 965 00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:41,160 Speaker 3: look at how diverse we are because we have a 966 00:53:41,200 --> 00:53:44,680 Speaker 3: black student. Now you could say, okay, that is the 967 00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:49,160 Speaker 3: racial diversity. You're talking what is the adversity there? If 968 00:53:49,200 --> 00:53:52,600 Speaker 3: we're now going to do adversity score. Someone explained that to. 969 00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:57,080 Speaker 2: Me and beyond that buck, beyond the adversity score. Also, 970 00:53:57,239 --> 00:54:00,359 Speaker 2: the point of affirmative action is to deal with a 971 00:54:00,480 --> 00:54:02,239 Speaker 2: legacy of slavery. 972 00:54:02,719 --> 00:54:04,239 Speaker 1: It applies as you know. 973 00:54:05,160 --> 00:54:07,319 Speaker 2: You never were a slave in the unit. You have 974 00:54:07,360 --> 00:54:09,759 Speaker 2: no ancestors who were slaves in the United States. In fact, 975 00:54:10,160 --> 00:54:13,040 Speaker 2: you might have actually been a part of the African 976 00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:16,279 Speaker 2: slave trade, and that your ancestors. 977 00:54:15,640 --> 00:54:18,320 Speaker 1: Might have sold slaves to America. 978 00:54:18,320 --> 00:54:20,360 Speaker 2: Because everybody doesn't even want to talk about the fact 979 00:54:20,800 --> 00:54:25,520 Speaker 2: that the first time people were captives and became slaves 980 00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:28,520 Speaker 2: was actually from one African tribe to another. They were 981 00:54:28,560 --> 00:54:32,200 Speaker 2: selling their enemies into slavery in the United States, pocketing 982 00:54:32,200 --> 00:54:35,239 Speaker 2: the money. There's no legacy of slavery for someone who 983 00:54:35,320 --> 00:54:39,399 Speaker 2: has arrived from Nigeria or from Kenya and is now 984 00:54:39,440 --> 00:54:41,160 Speaker 2: profiting off of affirmative action. 985 00:54:41,640 --> 00:54:45,080 Speaker 3: It is a the admissions and also it's true in hiring, 986 00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:48,799 Speaker 3: it is a racial spoils system. And now we're also 987 00:54:48,960 --> 00:54:55,520 Speaker 3: seeing increasingly it is a you know, victimized category spoil system, 988 00:54:55,560 --> 00:54:59,120 Speaker 3: as in if you are a transgender or non binary 989 00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:02,399 Speaker 3: or cisgender or whatever, that's also taken into account here. 990 00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:07,880 Speaker 3: There is a Latino advantage and admission based on what 991 00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:09,799 Speaker 3: based on lack of representation. 992 00:55:09,880 --> 00:55:11,720 Speaker 1: They would say.
