1 00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:17,320 Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom hunt. Looks like the president 2 00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:20,920 Speaker 1: main fact sign a budget deal, but he could also 3 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:23,560 Speaker 1: declare a shutdown. That's what we are being told right now. 4 00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:25,840 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, declare a national emergency. That's where we're being 5 00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:28,800 Speaker 1: told right now. Kind of feels like a shutdown. We'll 6 00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:31,840 Speaker 1: talk about that, and also some crazy stuff from the 7 00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:35,680 Speaker 1: FBI former FBI Director Andy McCabe. Folks, we got a 8 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:37,919 Speaker 1: lot to dive into, so strap in. We'll be right 9 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 1: with it. This is the Buck Sexton Show, where the 10 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:44,800 Speaker 1: mission or mission is to decode what really matters with 11 00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 1: actionable intelligence. Make no mistake American, You're a great American. Again, 12 00:00:51,880 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: the Buck Sexton Show begins. Analysts, remember this is a 13 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:04,440 Speaker 1: president who has performed over and over and over again. 14 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:08,959 Speaker 1: He's moved the embassy to Jerusalem. He's brought back jobs 15 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 1: from China to America. The economy is roaring. We've got 16 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: a number of people that were hostages brought home. Every 17 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,320 Speaker 1: time they say he won't do it, he does do it. 18 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,840 Speaker 1: He's going to do it this time. I'm confident of that. 19 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 1: I believe that he will take it executive action to 20 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 1: make sure he gets the dollars that he needs to 21 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 1: make sure that that wall gets built. Congress won't do 22 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 1: his job. Quite frankly, we could have done a lot better. 23 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: We could have given him the five point seven billion 24 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 1: that he requested, but instead he's having to embark on 25 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:43,920 Speaker 1: a three step process that I applaud. I mean, you know, 26 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: I can tell you that I wish that the executive 27 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 1: branch would have less ability to do things on their own. 28 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 1: We'll be voting to deliver another down payment on the 29 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: President's comment just occurring our nation's borders and keeping American 30 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 1: immunity to shape, and we'll do it free from the 31 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:08,359 Speaker 1: influence of poison pills that's thought to the derail progress 32 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:13,359 Speaker 1: and schipel compromise. Welcome to the buck, Sex and show 33 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 1: everybody here. We are about to find out if what 34 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: has been reported is true that they're awaiting as we 35 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 1: go to air, they're awaiting a House vote on an 36 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 1: omnimus bill to avoid a shutdown, right so, a continued 37 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 1: spending bill, and the Senate has already put it through. 38 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: We're awaiting the House to vote on it. The White 39 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 1: House has already said that the President is going to 40 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 1: sign it, and then we are told the plan is 41 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 1: for there to be a declaration of a national emergency, 42 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 1: which I would wager would only last hours before probably 43 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: the ninth circuit, but who knows which circuit shuts it down, 44 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,640 Speaker 1: and then the government just continues on as it is. 45 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 1: This is not a victory. It would not be true. 46 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 1: It would not be honest for me to say that 47 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 1: it's a victory assuming this all goes through as plan. 48 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 1: Remember I'm doing this show live, and this is where 49 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 1: we are right now. Trump originally wanted twenty five billion 50 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: dollars for the border wall. Later on, after consultation with experts, 51 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 1: they pick some key areas, and I'm okay with this 52 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: more pointed and more exact expansion of the already hundreds 53 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 1: of miles of barrier fencing based upon areas with the 54 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: greatest need. I think that's reasonable, and I think that 55 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 1: it's an easier sell to if not the Democrats who 56 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 1: are completely unreasonable on this, it's an easier sell to 57 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: the public that hey, we need this stuff, let's do it, 58 00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: and then you can show as you build in these 59 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 1: key areas, the metrics prove that what we already know, 60 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: which is that wall's work, is in fact the case. 61 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 1: But it went from twenty five billion two five billion, 62 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 1: and now Democrats agreed to one point six billion when 63 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:22,039 Speaker 1: the five point six billion was asked for, and then 64 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 1: it now has come to pass that the bill called 65 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,719 Speaker 1: the bill is at one point three seven five billion, 66 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: which is enough to construct fifty five miles. That's not 67 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: a whole lot when you're talking about a two thousand 68 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 1: mile border, and I know that it would take time 69 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: to build this, but I can't get excited about fifty 70 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: five miles of border fencing when you already have hundreds 71 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: and you need a whole lot more. There's also prohibitions 72 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: in this omnibuses and this is just from what I've 73 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,919 Speaker 1: been reading today, so some of this could be in 74 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 1: the process of getting changed on the hill. In the bill, 75 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:05,039 Speaker 1: there's a prohibition against any wall being built, and there's 76 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 1: also a so so they just that's mostly a political thing. 77 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 1: Because the ballard fencing, as I've seen when I was 78 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 1: in San Diego at the border, the ballard fencing, which 79 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:18,279 Speaker 1: is these these metal these metal posts, and they also 80 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 1: have a jump shield at the top, a jump plate 81 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 1: at the top. That's the most effective stuff they've got, 82 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 1: So I'm fine with It's also a lot easier to replace. 83 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,600 Speaker 1: You can break through a wall pretty easily, and if 84 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 1: you break through a cement wall, it's really hard to rebuild. 85 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: The fencing can be rebuilt in pieces quickly and easily, 86 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: and it also allows you to see through to the 87 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: other side, which is important for border patrol. So the fencing, 88 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: but that just shows you how petty really the Democrats 89 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 1: are being no wall so that way that they just 90 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: want it to be impossible for Trump to say that 91 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 1: any wall is being built, but fencing will be built. 92 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 1: But then you have some other prohibitions I see in 93 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:09,280 Speaker 1: here that they have to consult. Section twenty three two 94 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 1: three two A of the bill says that quote prior 95 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,159 Speaker 1: to use of any funds available by this Act for 96 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 1: the construction of physical barriers, Department of Homeland Security shall 97 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 1: confer and seek to reach mutual agreement regarding the design 98 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 1: and alignment of physical barriers within that city. Who do 99 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:30,039 Speaker 1: you think they have to reach agreement with, folks? That's right, 100 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:36,279 Speaker 1: local politicians. What has become one of the favorite talking points, 101 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: one of the favorite talking points of Democrats on this 102 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:44,280 Speaker 1: whole issue. Oh, let's put a congressman from a border 103 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 1: a border district on TV to say he doesn't want offense, 104 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:51,040 Speaker 1: he doesn't want to Well, yeah, that's because the demographics 105 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: have changed so much because of illegal immigration that congressmen 106 00:06:55,480 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 1: and mayors and different elected officials along the border don't 107 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: want to be seen as pro wall because to be 108 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 1: pro wall, thanks to the Democrats, is to be anti 109 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 1: Central American and Ti Mexican. This is what they say. 110 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 1: It's it's rooted in racism. And while that's unfair and 111 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 1: it's not true, that has political consequences. So of course politicians, 112 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 1: not the experts, not border patrol, not the people that 113 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: have to really deal with this. Politicians are going to 114 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 1: go with whatever's popular and in some bordering in some 115 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 1: border districts, they don't want to have to be in 116 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 1: favor of something that might cost them their job. They 117 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 1: don't care what it does. You also have. I mean, 118 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: there's there's a piece today that really got my attention 119 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 1: from from Daniel Horowitz on this one, who's running over 120 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 1: at Conservative Review, who just breaks this down. He says 121 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: he's got five areas, five provisions of the bill that 122 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 1: contains or that are problematic. His number three here is 123 00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 1: that the bill contains a blatant amnesty for the worst 124 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 1: cartel smugglers. Section two to four A prohibits the deportation 125 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 1: of anyone who is sponsoring an unaccompanied miner, an illegal alien, 126 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 1: or who says they might sponsor an unaccompanied minor, or 127 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 1: lives in a household with an unccompanied minor, or a 128 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 1: household that potentially might sponsor one. He writes, it's truly 129 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 1: difficult to understate the betrayal behind this provision. One of 130 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: the driving factors of the invasion is the misrepresentation of 131 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:32,319 Speaker 1: the unaccompanied minor under law. Under current law, Central American 132 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 1: teenagers are only treat as refugees if they are a 133 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 1: victim of a severe form of trafficking and have no 134 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 1: relatives in the country. Yet almost all of them are 135 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: self trafficked by these very illegal relatives who are indeed 136 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,839 Speaker 1: president in the country. Rather than clamping down on this 137 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 1: fleecing of the American people, the bill gives amnesty to 138 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:56,079 Speaker 1: the very people paying the cartels to invade us. And 139 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 1: then he goes on and this is the part that 140 00:08:57,960 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: I knew is going to be the case. Well, the 141 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 1: Democrats wants more funding for the areas of the immigration 142 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 1: system right now, and again we're waiting here for a 143 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 1: House vote as we're on air, a House vote on 144 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 1: averting another government shutdown by putting forward this spending bill 145 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: that would carry carry the government through for X amount 146 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 1: of months, and then Trump is going to declare a 147 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 1: national emergency. I think some of us are going to say, well, 148 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: I guess the negotiations have shown that Democrats are extremists. 149 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 1: That's good. Democrats are extremists on the border. The Democrats 150 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 1: are totally unreasonable on this issue of immigration, that they 151 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 1: are pro illegal immigration, that they do not want these 152 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 1: laws to be enforced at the border or in the interior. 153 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 1: And we've got a real problem because one of two 154 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:53,559 Speaker 1: political parties in this country is effectively now anti sovereignty. 155 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 1: They won't say it, they would argue if you said 156 00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:00,559 Speaker 1: this to them, but it is true. Are opposed to 157 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 1: us having any meaningful control over who comes into the 158 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 1: country and stays and who does not is unsustainable. This 159 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: is a major problem. Back to this piece and conservative view, 160 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,079 Speaker 1: which was excellent today, I have to say a hoards 161 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 1: did a really good job with a number four more 162 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 1: funding to manage and induce the invasion rather than to 163 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 1: deter it, while offering no new funding for ice, deportation 164 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 1: agents or immigration judges to speed up asylum claims. As 165 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:34,559 Speaker 1: the President requested, This bill adds another forty million dollars 166 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 1: for the Alternatives to Detention program, which moves asylum seekers 167 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 1: to facilities in the interior of the country where they 168 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:46,359 Speaker 1: are usually released. This bill will further expand and institutionalize 169 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: the catch and release policies for those arriving illegally at 170 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 1: the border from all over the world. Most of these 171 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: people have no intention of asking for asylum and know 172 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 1: they don't qualify it, but they are simply joining the 173 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: illegal population, knowing it's unlikely that they will be deported. 174 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 1: What have I been telling you all along, it's a 175 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 1: huge scam. If you understand our current system, you know 176 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 1: how to game it, you know how to get around it, 177 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 1: and you will be able to stay in the interior 178 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 1: of the United States without any realistic fear of deportation. 179 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:22,440 Speaker 1: No matter who we're talking about here now, you could. 180 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,319 Speaker 1: The only possible exception would be if you are a 181 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 1: hardened criminal who's already been deported, or you're on a 182 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 1: terror watch list and they take your fingerprints and they're 183 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 1: able to tell that you're somebody who's a real concern. 184 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:39,839 Speaker 1: But if you're just an average person from Mexico, Honduras, Nicaragua, 185 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:43,680 Speaker 1: l Salvador, China, India, in all these countries where we 186 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 1: do have Bangladesh illegal aliens showing up, you will know 187 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 1: that you can stay in the United States. Now if 188 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 1: you come to the bar. I almost hesitate sometimes to 189 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:58,200 Speaker 1: talk about it because part of the only thing that 190 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: saves us here is that not more or migrants know 191 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 1: about this. If they knew what was going on, I 192 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 1: think they would have a harder time doing anything but 193 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: this right. They wouldn't want it. They wouldn't want to 194 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 1: pay smugglers and do all this that. They'd want to 195 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 1: just do caravents. And there's more caravents forming. Why because 196 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 1: they are safe in numbers to get to the border, 197 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 1: there's media presence there to cover their their plight, and 198 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 1: then they can just show up and surrender. They can 199 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 1: show up and they can surrender. This. By the end 200 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 1: of this year, as I've been saying, we're going to 201 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 1: be at a half a million, half a million illegal entries, 202 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,720 Speaker 1: or rather a half a million people who are effectively 203 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 1: about to be illegal, and Democrats are saying that we 204 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 1: should not care. This is not a problem, there's no crisis, 205 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,439 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. It's all racism. It's all because Trump 206 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 1: is bad. Orange Trump equal bad. That's all. That's all 207 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 1: they really think about. And we should all be very 208 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,440 Speaker 1: trouble the fact that the Democratic Party is now selling 209 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 1: this country out. They are selling us out, all of us, everybody, 210 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 1: everybody who's an American is being sold out by the 211 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 1: Democratic Party because they do not care about assimilation in 212 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 1: this country. They do not care about rule of law 213 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 1: in this country. All they care about is the relentless 214 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 1: pursuit of power. And they see continue illegal immigration, the lawlessness, 215 00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 1: the pain, the suffering that comes along with it, both 216 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 1: for the illegal immigrant in many cases and for the 217 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 1: people that have to deal with this in their communities 218 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 1: or at the border. They see that as the cost 219 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 1: of doing business. Now, that's the Democrat view of it, 220 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 1: and even it says otherwise is either kidding themselves or 221 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:42,439 Speaker 1: an idiot. I've got more on this, by the way, 222 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 1: I as soon we've got some breaking news. They'll tell 223 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:45,679 Speaker 1: you about running the side of the break. Stay with me. 224 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:51,319 Speaker 1: I've just had an opportunity to speak with President Trump, 225 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,560 Speaker 1: and he would say to all my colleagues, is indicated 226 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 1: he's prepared to sign the bill. He will also be 227 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: issuing a national emergency declaration at same time, and I've 228 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 1: indicated to him that I'm going to prepare. I've got 229 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:09,240 Speaker 1: to support the national emergency declaration. So for all of 230 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 1: my colleagues, the President will sign the bill, will be 231 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:17,960 Speaker 1: voting on it shortly. It's not good enough. It's not 232 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 1: good enough. I wish I could say otherwise. I was 233 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 1: just digging in a little more into the fine print, 234 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 1: and this bill has some real trojan horse stuff in it. 235 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 1: I mentioned this to you at the top of the show, 236 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 1: but I was looking at it again. And you can't 237 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 1: remove any potential sponsor member of a household of a 238 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 1: potential sponsor. So this means that anyone who is in 239 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 1: the family of somebody that has an unaccompanied minor border 240 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 1: crosser cannot cannot be deported. Think about the incentive structure here. Now, 241 00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 1: if you haven't sent your kid to the southern border, 242 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 1: you better darn will do it a sap send as 243 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 1: many kids as you can to the border. For families 244 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: that have already been split up by some people coming 245 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 1: into America illegally. There's lots of that going on. And 246 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 1: once you've done that, this bill, if Trump signs it. 247 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 1: As i'm reading it here, I mean, I'm seeing it 248 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 1: described as quote a bill to turn a children into 249 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:43,600 Speaker 1: human shields against deportation for would be illegal immigrants from 250 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:47,720 Speaker 1: a Mickey Couse here who is a Democrat, but an 251 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 1: immigration really I lives in California, and he understands what 252 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 1: immigration is really doing. This is this is a big problem. 253 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 1: I don't I don't think Trump can sign this. I 254 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 1: don't know if he's going to. We will know by 255 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 1: the time I guess the show is over tonight. But 256 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 1: I don't think Trump is going to be in a 257 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 1: position to sign this thing without when when we realize 258 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 1: what's well, it's over a thousand pages this bill, folks, 259 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 1: this is a disaster. This is not good. Oh my gosh. 260 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 1: This is what we've been fighting for this whole time. 261 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 1: This is what we've been trying to trying to get to. 262 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 1: This is the the end state. It's just not good enough. 263 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 1: The local veto against the wall for politicians along the way, 264 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 1: these are all Democrat districts now, because they're along the border. 265 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 1: Because of the impact of illegal immigration over years and 266 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 1: years and years, these are now even in places like Texas, 267 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 1: these are flipped flipped in terms of their partisan affiliation. 268 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:05,119 Speaker 1: It's it has already happened. But this shielding of people 269 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 1: from deportation if they have any connection whatsoever to an 270 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 1: illegal alien crosser child. Keep in mind that people are 271 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 1: saying that they are sixteen who are thirty, and they 272 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 1: very rarely will go through the process of trying to 273 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 1: medically prove that they are not sixteen or seventeen. They 274 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 1: just let them in the interior of the country. This 275 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 1: is less money than Democrats originally agreed to veto power 276 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 1: over the wall. You know, this encourages even more legal immigration. 277 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:43,959 Speaker 1: This is a bad the bad bill, folks. I wish 278 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,399 Speaker 1: I know, I'm a bummer. I'm sure there's some like 279 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,359 Speaker 1: little Trump cheerleaders somewhere. They're doing radio shows or something. 280 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: They'll say, Oh, it's great easy. Nope, I'm sorry. I 281 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 1: wish I could tell you this was good. It's not good. 282 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,479 Speaker 1: I wish I could say that this negotiation has yielded 283 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 1: the results that I've been hoping for all this time. Nope, 284 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 1: And There's also a concern about if he signs the 285 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 1: budget bill and then declares a national emergency, why wouldn't 286 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:14,960 Speaker 1: you declare the national emergency before signing the bill. I 287 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 1: know it sounds like just a process issue or a 288 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 1: process question, but I think that there could be some 289 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 1: ramifications to that too. You're just gonna You're gonna tell 290 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 1: us as a national emergency, but you're just gonna sign 291 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:28,200 Speaker 1: a budget for business as usual. This is a little 292 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 1: bit of cross purposes, isn't it. I know I'm keeping 293 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 1: it real and people don't always get excited about that. 294 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 1: But we've got a much more show coming up. I 295 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,119 Speaker 1: think the presidents will get a spot. It depends on 296 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:43,040 Speaker 1: how they right away. He's certainly inclined to sign it 297 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 1: or some things in there that that are dead for 298 00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 1: a word, security and let him march toward billions de 299 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 1: gaps by executive action. Executive action. Huh, that's what this 300 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 1: has all come down to. Look, we were told that 301 00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:00,159 Speaker 1: Trump was he said it. I'm not saying that. This 302 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:04,160 Speaker 1: isn't even somebody else describing this way. He's the greatest negotiator. Ever, 303 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 1: how am I to tell you sitting here that this 304 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:13,119 Speaker 1: negotiation is one the Trumps has been successful and I 305 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:15,359 Speaker 1: can't say that. Yeah, I speak the truth to you. 306 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 1: It's what I that's my mandate every day here on 307 00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 1: the show. This negotiation did not go Trump's way. This 308 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 1: bill is a bad bill. The money, it's not just 309 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 1: the money, it's the provisions within the bill. It's the 310 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 1: eleven hundred pages. You dig into some of this stuff, 311 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 1: you say, wait a second, this is gonna make the 312 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,360 Speaker 1: problem worse at the border. This is gonna be more lawless, 313 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:38,119 Speaker 1: this more open borders. They're just trying to slam this 314 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 1: thing through and hope that nobody reads it. I'm just 315 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,240 Speaker 1: looking at certain provisions of it. I haven't a time 316 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 1: to read an eleven hundred page bill. Who's going to 317 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 1: read the eleven hundred page bill? Why is it eleven 318 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 1: hundred pages? And it's dealing with immigration issues that no 319 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:55,679 Speaker 1: one talking about. They're trying to just this is classic 320 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:59,920 Speaker 1: swamp behavior. This is all of this stuff that we've 321 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,960 Speaker 1: believe that Trump was fighting against. And I'm not blaming 322 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 1: it entirely on the president. That wouldn't that's not fair either. 323 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 1: I'm just trying to describe the situation as it is, 324 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:15,879 Speaker 1: and this is a loss for anybody who wants border 325 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 1: security and interior enforcement and an end to all the 326 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,880 Speaker 1: different scams that are currently being run to get around 327 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: our legal immigration system, for people who think that they 328 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 1: have a right to be here, and a Democratic Party 329 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 1: that is absolutely shameless on this. You know, Trump said 330 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 1: that we were you know that he was going to 331 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 1: fight on this one. And now we're going to go 332 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 1: into a declaration of emergency. Now that the Democrats and 333 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:46,760 Speaker 1: this I can tune out a lot of their criticism 334 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 1: on those Oh, it's gonna said a terrible precedent, a 335 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 1: couple of things on the precedent talking point. You're gonna 336 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 1: hear a lot of that assuming Trump sign signs us 337 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:56,360 Speaker 1: thing tonight. Oh, by the way, I told you those 338 00:20:56,400 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 1: breaking news side note, Bill Barr has been sworn in 339 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:04,360 Speaker 1: as the attorney general, so we have a new attorney general, everybody, 340 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:06,720 Speaker 1: Bill Barr. I also think we're going to hear the 341 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 1: end of the Muller probe within the next two weeks. 342 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 1: That's why that's right, John, I put I put it 343 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 1: on the table, my friend. I make the bold predictions here. 344 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:20,119 Speaker 1: I think you're gonna have it within two weeks, and 345 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 1: that doesn't mean that this ends. They're just going to 346 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 1: go into different investigations. They're just going to act like 347 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 1: the Muller probe was the appetizer, and the main course 348 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,480 Speaker 1: is going to be all the different congressional inquiries and 349 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:34,119 Speaker 1: all the subpoenas that are gonna fly. And these are 350 00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: just remember these are just don't don't get all caught 351 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 1: up in the title's Deputy Attorney General, deputy assistant Attorney 352 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 1: General all this stuff. These are just Democrat lawyers for 353 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 1: the most part. And Bob Barr, I'm sorry, Bill Barr. 354 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:48,200 Speaker 1: I'm not the only one who does that every instance, 355 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 1: Bob bar Bill Barr is a competent guy, and I 356 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 1: think he'll do I think he'll be do a solid job. 357 00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:04,119 Speaker 1: Bill Barr is solid. But the DOJ problems and we're 358 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:05,600 Speaker 1: going to get more into this the next hour and 359 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,440 Speaker 1: what we found out about what's going on with what 360 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 1: was going on with Annie McCabe and really bad stuff, 361 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 1: really really bad stuff. All right, So back to just 362 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:22,440 Speaker 1: the executive order, the executive order component of this one. 363 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 1: Obama was essentially ruling by executive order. In the second term, 364 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 1: Obama gave us DACA, which is now treated as law 365 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 1: that can't be overturned. DACA is almost to the left 366 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 1: now like a constitutional right. The president can't overturn DOCCA. 367 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 1: It was just presidential discretion. But now they're saying because 368 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 1: of the processes of fair notice, and I mean, they're 369 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 1: just they're just making stuff up anything in the court 370 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,400 Speaker 1: to keep DACA alive and well. And even if you say, buck, 371 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 1: we're not going to deport a lot of people covered 372 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,199 Speaker 1: on a doctor. Yeah, but it becomes then part of 373 00:22:56,200 --> 00:23:02,800 Speaker 1: the bargain for a real deal on immigration. But Obama 374 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 1: was doing this stuff and we all said, you know, 375 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 1: this sets a really bad precedent. They didn't care. They 376 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: didn't care. As long as the left was getting what 377 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 1: they wanted, they were fine with it. So that's part 378 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 1: one of this, all right. And then on the oh 379 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:16,119 Speaker 1: my gosh, look at the president. Trump is setting boy 380 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 1: declaring a national emergency. This will be like other things 381 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,199 Speaker 1: that Trump has done that he has a legal right 382 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,720 Speaker 1: to do as president. In some cases that he has 383 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 1: statutory support for specific laws passed by Congress to help 384 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:35,119 Speaker 1: him accomplish something, and they still stop him. The court 385 00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 1: still shut him down. And now we'll have to look 386 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 1: at is all right, what comes next after the court 387 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:45,159 Speaker 1: shut this down? And how quickly can the Trump administration 388 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 1: prevail on this. I don't think it'll be able to 389 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,879 Speaker 1: prevail before the next election. So really, this just punts 390 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 1: it past twenty twenty. But those who were saying that 391 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 1: the liberals are gonna seize on this and they're gonna, yeah, 392 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 1: they would seize on it any if they get power again, 393 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 1: do you think they're gonna say, well, we were gonna 394 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 1: do this by executive fiat, but you know, we want 395 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 1: to play fair because Trump was fair on this one. 396 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:13,679 Speaker 1: This is nonsense. This is just allowing a kind of 397 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 1: boy scout No offense to the boy scouts, but boy 398 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 1: scout attitude to prevail in what is a an all 399 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,200 Speaker 1: out political street fight. And that's what the Trump administration's 400 00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:25,439 Speaker 1: in right now. And I'm telling you, this is a 401 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 1: bad bill that they're about to sign, and the National 402 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 1: Emergency is not going to change anything. So we're not 403 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:33,919 Speaker 1: winning this fight right now. The fight's not over. I 404 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:35,359 Speaker 1: got to hear from the White House. I gotta make 405 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:37,439 Speaker 1: some calls what they're planning next. But right now Trump 406 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 1: is not winning. Trump is not in fact going to 407 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 1: come out on top of this, what is the strategy 408 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 1: and how do we get the base fired up? I 409 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 1: don't remember it was build the wall. If we have 410 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:57,520 Speaker 1: sixty senators, you know, build the wall. If we have 411 00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 1: a supermajority, build the wall. If we have all of 412 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 1: government and Republicans that are whimps on this issue. You 413 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:08,720 Speaker 1: know that that was not the chant. It would make 414 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:12,359 Speaker 1: me president. We will build a wall if we can't. 415 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 1: Now as a country, have an election where the central, 416 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 1: the central differentiation point for the winning candidate is a 417 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 1: promise to build a barrier at our southern border. If 418 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,720 Speaker 1: we can't accomplish that, these people are talking about a 419 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:27,160 Speaker 1: Green New Deal and how we went to the moon. 420 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:28,960 Speaker 1: I want to say to them, you guys, won't even 421 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 1: let us build a fence. Won't let us build a 422 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:37,160 Speaker 1: fence unless it's around some fancy celebrity's house right back. 423 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:39,720 Speaker 1: Oh look, all they gotta do as you said the 424 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 1: earlier talks to the engine moms. But you know, Nancy 425 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 1: Pelosi and Chuck Schuman refused to talk to angie moms. 426 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 1: They refuse to go down the border and talk to 427 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:48,879 Speaker 1: the experts. To be women in green, to put their 428 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:52,920 Speaker 1: lives alone, every day, so they don't know what manufactured crisis. 429 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:55,240 Speaker 1: They say the walls and marls an effective. They refuse 430 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 1: to look at the data because the data shows every 431 00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 1: place that various build has worked. And you forgot one 432 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,200 Speaker 1: umbers John one hundred and thirty eight thousand criminal Amians 433 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 1: were arrested by ISIS past year. It will to goal 434 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 1: Alians that committed crimes in this country. They just didn't 435 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:09,640 Speaker 1: appear here. They come across the southwest border. So it's 436 00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:14,160 Speaker 1: it's terrible glad Tom Holman's out there making the case, 437 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 1: and it's important for as many Americans as possible to 438 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 1: be brought the truth. And the truth is that the 439 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 1: Democrats have aligned themselves now with the status quo at 440 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 1: the border, which means the Democrats have aligned themselves with 441 00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 1: accepting large numbers of illegal ch of illegal aliens entering 442 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 1: the country, a massive asylum scam, the flooding of our 443 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 1: communities with drugs that come from across the border, and 444 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:48,600 Speaker 1: all of the political and social and economic disruptions of 445 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: the lawlessness that occurs not just at the border but 446 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:55,440 Speaker 1: also in communities across the country that have to bear 447 00:26:55,560 --> 00:27:00,600 Speaker 1: the brunt of sanctuary city policies. Of they say that 448 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 1: there's no downside to this. They act like it's not 449 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 1: a big deal. Well, guess what. Sixteen hundred murderers, illegal 450 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:11,879 Speaker 1: alien murderers are currently in ice custody. So it's just 451 00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:14,719 Speaker 1: not a tenable position that they try to cling to this. 452 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:18,679 Speaker 1: But it's not a tenable position for them to claim 453 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 1: that there is not in fact a major problem here, 454 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:23,120 Speaker 1: but they don't want to deal with it. In fact, 455 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:25,159 Speaker 1: the only funding that they really want to do, the 456 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 1: only way they really want to tackle this problem is 457 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:37,120 Speaker 1: by saying that they want more money to process those 458 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 1: who are scamming our system, to get them into the 459 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:42,400 Speaker 1: country even faster, and to ensure that there are even 460 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:47,400 Speaker 1: more left wing judges who are going to just say, 461 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:50,399 Speaker 1: you know what, we're not gonna We're never gonna enforce 462 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 1: our laws, so we might as well not start now, 463 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:56,840 Speaker 1: and we might as well just keep letting people stay, 464 00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:02,760 Speaker 1: just keep letting people say at a minimum, I know 465 00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 1: I'm upset with Trump on this issue, and I think 466 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:08,639 Speaker 1: that this is this is not what it should be 467 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 1: in terms of the deal. I think the deal is 468 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:14,919 Speaker 1: it's not a good deal. And if Trump is going 469 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:18,760 Speaker 1: to sign it and declare national emergency. I've seen this 470 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:20,360 Speaker 1: coming for a long time. A lot of people have. 471 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:23,959 Speaker 1: It's not correct to call this a win. It's just 472 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:28,240 Speaker 1: the fight continues, but it's not a win. At a minimum, 473 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:33,440 Speaker 1: though the administration has woken I hope gosh. I hate 474 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 1: using the term woke now because of the Left, but 475 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 1: has made a lot of people realize who would not 476 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 1: have otherwise, that there's a real problem going on and 477 00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 1: it has to be dealt with, and that we do 478 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:50,479 Speaker 1: not have willing partners in the Democrats for dealing with this. 479 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 1: In fact, they are complicit in the continued illegality. They 480 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:59,840 Speaker 1: are seemingly unbothered by all of the negative effects of 481 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 1: the drugs that are flooding into this country and by 482 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 1: the cartel activity the cartels. The human trafficking is funding 483 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 1: the cartels the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars 484 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,880 Speaker 1: a year. Human trafficking is the people that are being 485 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: currently brought to the border or brought in the United 486 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 1: States illegally by coyotes who all work with the cartels. 487 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:25,960 Speaker 1: Those same cartel organizations have made the Mexican government it's puppet. 488 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 1: They have made police forces across the country, military forces 489 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: in many cases their pawns. They absolutely corrupt them, and 490 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 1: they're responsible for tens of thousands of murders a year. 491 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 1: So once again we have Democrats posing as people who 492 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:48,640 Speaker 1: really care about these kinds of problems, posing as individuals 493 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 1: who want to do everything in their power to make 494 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 1: life easier for these migrants. But what about all the 495 00:29:55,360 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 1: Mexicans and Hondurans who don't come to this country. Shouldn't 496 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 1: they have some hope that their neighbors to the north 497 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:09,000 Speaker 1: don't want the cartels to be able to make hundreds 498 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,760 Speaker 1: of millions of dollars a year doing illegal alien and 499 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:16,959 Speaker 1: human smuggling operations. So I do give Trump credit at 500 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:20,479 Speaker 1: least for that. Romney was actually good on immigration, right, 501 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 1: You know, there's a total nonsense, total aside, but Ronnie 502 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: is actually good on a legal immigration one of the 503 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 1: few Republicans. You think back to what Republicans have been 504 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:30,160 Speaker 1: saying this issue for a while. Every time they were 505 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 1: supposed to be running for reelection and the border came 506 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,239 Speaker 1: up in some capacity, they're all border hawks, and then 507 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 1: their legislation is always, well, yeah, we got to do amnesteam, 508 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 1: We'll figure out the rest. Trump at least is not 509 00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 1: that at least is not that he has not won 510 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:47,360 Speaker 1: this battle, but he still seems willing to fight it. 511 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 1: So much crime comes in through our southern border. Illegal 512 00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:57,960 Speaker 1: immigration provides a lucrative cash flow, to put it mildly 513 00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:02,440 Speaker 1: lucrative to some of the most dangerous criminal organizations on 514 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:07,680 Speaker 1: the planet. These deadly cartels flood our cities with narcotics 515 00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 1: that kill thousands of our citizens, ruined families. They use fear, intimidation, 516 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 1: and violence to get their way. There's only one moral 517 00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 1: course of action to put these ruthless criminal cartels out 518 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:26,360 Speaker 1: of business, and out of business fast. I will never 519 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:30,720 Speaker 1: waver from my sacred duty to defend this nation and 520 00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 1: its people. We will get the job done. I can't 521 00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 1: think of a single policy that Democrats are advocating right 522 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 1: now in this whole border dispute that would really make 523 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 1: things harder for the cartels. In fact, the most important 524 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:49,000 Speaker 1: thing you could do would be to stop the human smuggling. 525 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 1: That would Maybe you could argue with me about whether 526 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:54,320 Speaker 1: we could stop the importation of drugs or not, or 527 00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:56,760 Speaker 1: cut it down, whether that would just affect the street price. 528 00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,240 Speaker 1: I know those arguments. I'm familiar with it. I'm familiar 529 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 1: with the history of the drug or I get it. 530 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,960 Speaker 1: But the people that are being brought into the country 531 00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:08,680 Speaker 1: are currently a huge source of funding for the operations 532 00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 1: of the cartels, and there's just no willingness in the 533 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:17,080 Speaker 1: Democrats side to try and tackle that problem. Set So, 534 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 1: you know, we're in this situation right now where I 535 00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 1: think the President did what right now he had to do. 536 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 1: I don't think that another shutdown would have been a 537 00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 1: smart political thing to do. The Democrats would have just 538 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 1: dug in and they would have just rubbed Trump's face 539 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 1: in it once again. There would have been no change 540 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 1: in that dynamic. And if he does sign this and 541 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 1: declare the national emergency, we've I've been saying along, everyone 542 00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 1: knows it, it goes in the courts right away, and 543 00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 1: then we kind of return to business as usual. And 544 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:55,480 Speaker 1: then we get into a situation for the next election, 545 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 1: I guess, and we're gonna have Republicans saying, see, we tried. 546 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 1: But I'm not going to forget that the Republicans did 547 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,640 Speaker 1: almost nothing on this issue for the first two years. 548 00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:10,800 Speaker 1: I'm not going to forget that. They made a lot 549 00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 1: of promises, but then when push came to shove, not 550 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:15,320 Speaker 1: just on immigration, but on healthcare. On a bunch of places, 551 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:19,240 Speaker 1: the Republican Party could not get it done. I know, 552 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,480 Speaker 1: we don't. I don't have the alternative because the left 553 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 1: is so crazy. I mean, you know, the Republicans of 554 00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:26,240 Speaker 1: the party we've got, but we can't just go along 555 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:28,440 Speaker 1: and say, hey, you know what, We're going to support 556 00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 1: you no matter what, and it's all okay, and it's 557 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:33,400 Speaker 1: all fine. We've got to push them to take the 558 00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:37,400 Speaker 1: right actions. And when we don't, when we're just kind 559 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 1: of happy with funny tweets and smacking around annoying left 560 00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:45,520 Speaker 1: wing reporters on TV and all that stuff, you know, 561 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:49,960 Speaker 1: when that's the standard, how surprised can we really be 562 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:55,480 Speaker 1: when it doesn't result in any actual change. So look, 563 00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:58,000 Speaker 1: I I'm I don't know. And by the time you 564 00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 1: listen to this, maybe it'll already be signed and then 565 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 1: we'll already be in the state of emergency. I mean, 566 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 1: I'm as we go to air, this is what we're 567 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:09,160 Speaker 1: being told. I think this situation has been pretty disappointing, 568 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:13,080 Speaker 1: and I think that the president you know, maybe I 569 00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:14,799 Speaker 1: don't know, Mike, what do you think? Know what? What 570 00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:16,719 Speaker 1: if we want to do a shutdown again. Is there 571 00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:19,480 Speaker 1: any the Democrats will just dig in, They'll outlast I'm 572 00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:20,799 Speaker 1: like they did the last time. I don't see how 573 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:23,400 Speaker 1: we get around this. Yeah, I agree with you, So 574 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 1: what's the this is? I'm not familiar with any time 575 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:31,319 Speaker 1: when a shutdown has resulted in the Republicans getting what 576 00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 1: they want and they took it. They took a political 577 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:37,560 Speaker 1: beating this last time around because of the shutdown. I 578 00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:40,319 Speaker 1: don't see how that would change. And we do have 579 00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:41,960 Speaker 1: to be mindful of the fact that we're heading into 580 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:45,040 Speaker 1: a twenty twenty election cycle here. I think June or 581 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:48,719 Speaker 1: July is the first Democrat debates, right the primaries of 582 00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:52,239 Speaker 1: the primary. And while I don't think people will remember 583 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:54,799 Speaker 1: the last shutdown, if you do two shutdowns and the 584 00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:57,319 Speaker 1: media gets to run wild with it and talk about 585 00:34:57,360 --> 00:34:59,840 Speaker 1: how heartless and terrible Trump is because of all this, 586 00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 1: then we may be in a bad spot, and we 587 00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:05,799 Speaker 1: may be in a situation where it has ramifications for 588 00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. But we should have had we should have 589 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 1: had a wall in progress already, and we don't, and 590 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:21,600 Speaker 1: that is a disappointment. We do have, however, a confirmation 591 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:24,520 Speaker 1: of the attempted soft coup against the president the United 592 00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:28,320 Speaker 1: States courtesy of one former acting FBI director and Dye McCabe. 593 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:31,640 Speaker 1: This is a huge story from today that we are 594 00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:34,160 Speaker 1: going to have to talk about. And I don't know 595 00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:36,880 Speaker 1: if some people in the conservative media are just exhausted 596 00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:40,839 Speaker 1: by this, but I'm surprised there's not more outrage. Man. 597 00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:44,200 Speaker 1: You gotta get fired up every day, right, you know 598 00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,640 Speaker 1: how it is, You got to get into the grind.

I was speaking to 616 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:47,480 Speaker 1: the man who had just run for the presidency and 617 00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:52,239 Speaker 1: won the election for the presidency, and who might have 618 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:56,719 Speaker 1: done so with the aid of the government of Russia. 619 00:36:56,920 --> 00:37:00,560 Speaker 1: How long was it after that that you decided to 620 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:05,440 Speaker 1: start the obstruction of justice and counterintelligence investigations involving the president. 621 00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:08,440 Speaker 1: I think the next day I met with the team 622 00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:12,920 Speaker 1: investigating the Russia cases, and I asked the team to 623 00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:17,359 Speaker 1: go back and conduct an assessment to determine where are 624 00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:20,000 Speaker 1: we with these efforts and what steps do we need 625 00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:23,160 Speaker 1: to take going forward. I was very concerned that I 626 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:26,960 Speaker 1: was able to put the Russia case on absolutely solid 627 00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:31,760 Speaker 1: ground in an indelible fashion, that were I removed quickly 628 00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:35,319 Speaker 1: or reassigned or fired, that the case could not be 629 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:41,240 Speaker 1: closed or vanish in the night without a trace. That 630 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:46,880 Speaker 1: is the interview that was rocketing across the Internet today, 631 00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:55,040 Speaker 1: with former acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe saying that, well, 632 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:58,319 Speaker 1: among many things, we're talking about, of course, but saying 633 00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:02,360 Speaker 1: that he was deeply concerned that somebody would try to 634 00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:07,160 Speaker 1: shut down the Russia investigation after Coomy was fired, that 635 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:11,640 Speaker 1: Komy was the firing of Komi was a red line 636 00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:15,560 Speaker 1: in essence that had been crossed, and that people I've seen, 637 00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:17,000 Speaker 1: I mean, I've read more and more of this guy 638 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 1: stuff today, that people were wandering the hallways crying. If 639 00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:21,319 Speaker 1: that's the case. If you think that the firing of 640 00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:23,200 Speaker 1: the director, I can tell you this, I worked at 641 00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:27,239 Speaker 1: the CIA. Nobody that I knew would have cried at 642 00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:29,719 Speaker 1: the CIA director had been fired. That is a bizarre, 643 00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:35,160 Speaker 1: childish thing to do. So there's there's some perspective that 644 00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:36,560 Speaker 1: I can give you here that you won't hear from 645 00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:37,920 Speaker 1: a lot of other folks because they've never been in 646 00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:40,840 Speaker 1: these kinds of large bureaucracies. We don't give a what 647 00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:43,400 Speaker 1: who the director is in these places, the people that 648 00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:45,120 Speaker 1: are doing And remember, I was a little I was 649 00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:49,560 Speaker 1: low down, the low down the ORG chart. I was 650 00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 1: gonna say totem pole, but I feel like that's gonna 651 00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:56,280 Speaker 1: get Can I say that am I appropriating? Hey? Maybe 652 00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:59,440 Speaker 1: I'll ask Elizabeth Warren. So I was low down the 653 00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:02,840 Speaker 1: ORG chart. That's right, John, I'll lean into it. I 654 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:05,279 Speaker 1: look around, I look over the edge that I say, boo, yeah, 655 00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna jump. So you are a rude, terrible person. 656 00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:14,239 Speaker 1: Fair point, fair point. So I look at this though, 657 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 1: when I say the stories that McCabe is telling about 658 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:20,919 Speaker 1: how adults are crying in the hallway because James Comey 659 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 1: was fired by the president. Comey acted in egregiously politicized fashion. 660 00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:29,880 Speaker 1: And there's no debate about this. When he stood in 661 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 1: front of the country and said that there will be 662 00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:35,400 Speaker 1: no charges against Hillary. That's just a fact. Now. I mean, 663 00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:38,840 Speaker 1: there's really not a two sides to that discussion. That 664 00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:43,560 Speaker 1: is just what has happened. That is the reality. And 665 00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:48,680 Speaker 1: here we are listening to McCabe, who, according to the 666 00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:53,239 Speaker 1: FBI Zone Inspector General, lied multiple times under oath and 667 00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:57,160 Speaker 1: lied in regards to leaks to the press about Russia, 668 00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:03,440 Speaker 1: investigated Russia investigation related materials. And I want to know 669 00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:08,320 Speaker 1: some things like why shouldn't he be prosecuted, Why shouldn't 670 00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:11,920 Speaker 1: he be you know, found guilty and sent to prison 671 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:15,759 Speaker 1: if in fact he did lie. Remember we have been 672 00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 1: told many times now process crimes are real crimes. If 673 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:23,200 Speaker 1: you lie to the FBI, you should go to prison. Meanwhile, 674 00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:26,640 Speaker 1: those people who say that the anti Trump lunatics out 675 00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:29,760 Speaker 1: there's like, oh, let's right, lock up, lock up Roger Stone, 676 00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:31,600 Speaker 1: who thinks that the world's a better place because Roger 677 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:36,200 Speaker 1: Stone goes to prison for lying about trivialities, lying about 678 00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,920 Speaker 1: effectively nothing. But they say that, lock him up, Lock 679 00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:41,960 Speaker 1: him up. Meanwhile, if you lie to border patrol, you're 680 00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:44,400 Speaker 1: also supposed to be able to be prosecuted. But border 681 00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:46,640 Speaker 1: patrol gets lied to so much. It's part of the 682 00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:50,960 Speaker 1: whole lawlessness of the system down there. That prosecutors know 683 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:55,239 Speaker 1: if they start prosecuting people for that, that they're the 684 00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:57,560 Speaker 1: system will come to a screeching halt. All they'll be 685 00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:00,280 Speaker 1: doing is prosecuting people who lie to a border control 686 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:03,000 Speaker 1: all the time. So that should tell you. That doesn't 687 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:05,080 Speaker 1: mean that it does it's not a problem. It means 688 00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:06,640 Speaker 1: that the problem is so big that they can't even 689 00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:09,279 Speaker 1: begin to deal with it. But back to McCabe. He 690 00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:11,319 Speaker 1: has lied multiple times. He has not been charged. I 691 00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:17,360 Speaker 1: would like to know why. And he is now coming 692 00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:21,759 Speaker 1: out and saying and confirming what we've already known for 693 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:24,720 Speaker 1: quite a while, but which is now I think beyond 694 00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:29,080 Speaker 1: any reasonable doubt that the FBI was engaged in an 695 00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:33,840 Speaker 1: effort to overthrow the president of the United States, have 696 00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:37,319 Speaker 1: a coup, get rid of the president, get him out 697 00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:42,399 Speaker 1: of office. The top of the FBI was trying to 698 00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:48,320 Speaker 1: get rid of this president. That should be a stunning revelation, 699 00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:52,359 Speaker 1: that should be oh my gosh, what are we going 700 00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:55,480 Speaker 1: to do about this? Meanwhile, the meeting the press is like, Wow, 701 00:41:56,239 --> 00:42:00,360 Speaker 1: any McCabe's really saying some troubling things about the president. 702 00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:04,640 Speaker 1: I think the troubling thing is that this bureaucrat, this 703 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:10,440 Speaker 1: obvious Democrat wife, was buddy buddy with mccauliffe and the 704 00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:12,920 Speaker 1: Clinton's and got all this money to run as a Democrat. 705 00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:16,640 Speaker 1: We're reaching a point now because things are so polarized 706 00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:19,799 Speaker 1: that it's increasingly hard to trust any lib in the 707 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:23,279 Speaker 1: senior reaches of the law enforcement bureaucracy and trust that 708 00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:27,000 Speaker 1: they're not trying to get their extra points for wokeness, 709 00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:29,719 Speaker 1: trying to get their extra points for being some kind 710 00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:33,800 Speaker 1: of a social justice warrior. You know, we're rapidly reaching 711 00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:37,000 Speaker 1: a point where, you know, we're going to have to 712 00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:41,719 Speaker 1: look at this and say, hold on a second, what 713 00:42:41,920 --> 00:42:47,320 Speaker 1: is going on here. This is crazy, This is completely nuts. 714 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:53,840 Speaker 1: The FBI director, former acting FBI director, is admitting to 715 00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:58,440 Speaker 1: trying to leave in place an investigation that cannot be overturned, 716 00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:02,319 Speaker 1: an investigation to find Russian collusion that Mueller after two years, 717 00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:05,239 Speaker 1: has not been able to find. What was this based on. 718 00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:09,759 Speaker 1: Are these idiots that he's talking about at the FBI? 719 00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:13,640 Speaker 1: Are they still trying to cling to this whole Oh 720 00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:17,920 Speaker 1: it's Carter Page and Papa Dot' that's what he was 721 00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:23,680 Speaker 1: so worried about. Unless they have something that we don't 722 00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:28,600 Speaker 1: know about, which I think is increasingly in the realm 723 00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 1: of fantasy. But unless there's some huge thing that somehow 724 00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:34,600 Speaker 1: has not come to light about what the FBI not 725 00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:38,120 Speaker 1: even necessarily knew but thought they knew about Russia Trump collusion, 726 00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:42,239 Speaker 1: how can they justify any of this? How does this 727 00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:44,759 Speaker 1: make any sense? And now you have Muller, I mean, 728 00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:48,520 Speaker 1: you have a McCabe coming out and saying that there 729 00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:51,279 Speaker 1: were discussions about the twenty fifth Amendment that was all real. 730 00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 1: And Rod Rosenstein, who is the Deputy Attorney General who's 731 00:43:56,640 --> 00:44:00,640 Speaker 1: been overseeing the Muller probe, thought about wearing a wire 732 00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:05,279 Speaker 1: against this president. We were supposed to think that these 733 00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:08,360 Speaker 1: people have fair judgment about but based on what I 734 00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:12,360 Speaker 1: just wish they could tell me one thing, Rosenstein, McCabe, comey, 735 00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:16,000 Speaker 1: where is the they're there? Where is the thing that 736 00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:19,920 Speaker 1: I'm supposed to say? Oh, my Trump really did cross 737 00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:22,719 Speaker 1: a line. I hear all this stuff about all his 738 00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:25,680 Speaker 1: undermining democracy at our institutions, and we got to make 739 00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:28,200 Speaker 1: sure that. And then I said, okay, well, what is it? 740 00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:33,600 Speaker 1: What did he do? Uh? Manafort didn't pay his taxes 741 00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:37,960 Speaker 1: and lied to the investigation that was sicked on him 742 00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:40,560 Speaker 1: because he worked for Trump for a few months in 743 00:44:40,600 --> 00:44:45,000 Speaker 1: the campaign as the campaign director. That doesn't That doesn't 744 00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:47,320 Speaker 1: get it done. Sorry that that doesn't put Humpty dumpty 745 00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:50,760 Speaker 1: back together again. This is just crazy. Oh yeah, Roger 746 00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:57,360 Speaker 1: Stone maybe lied about No, no, no, false? How is 747 00:44:57,400 --> 00:44:59,960 Speaker 1: there hump We're outrage about this? How are people not more? 748 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:05,000 Speaker 1: Were unsettled at the prospect of these bureaucrats at the 749 00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:08,240 Speaker 1: top of the FBI, the top of the DOJ thinking 750 00:45:08,320 --> 00:45:11,960 Speaker 1: that they have a right to just go with these 751 00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:15,960 Speaker 1: rogue investigations of the president justify a lot of it 752 00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:19,040 Speaker 1: after the fact, I'm sure, in an effort to stop 753 00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:22,680 Speaker 1: him from being the president. And you know when we say, okay, 754 00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:26,080 Speaker 1: you know what, tell us why why were you so 755 00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:29,880 Speaker 1: worried about Trump? Andy McCabe, why were you so concerned? 756 00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:32,320 Speaker 1: We're supposed to believe you. Oh, you got to protect 757 00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:36,600 Speaker 1: the investigation. Oh we can't. Okay, what was going to happen? 758 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:42,839 Speaker 1: What was going to be that big reveal or what 759 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:49,000 Speaker 1: is the big reveal? Absolutely nothing so far. And Chris 760 00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:53,239 Speaker 1: Starwalt said it, well, today we know, let's think of 761 00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:55,680 Speaker 1: the Russian investigation. That is the House that said there's 762 00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:58,160 Speaker 1: no inclusion. The Senate has said there's no inclusion. I 763 00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:02,040 Speaker 1: would bet my house that says there's no collusion, there 764 00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:04,520 Speaker 1: is no evidence of it. Two years later, and what 765 00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:07,080 Speaker 1: I think we have to ask ourselves is how in 766 00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:10,240 Speaker 1: the world was this man, the acting director of the FBI, 767 00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:14,200 Speaker 1: when he exercised this kind of judgment, an individual who 768 00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:18,560 Speaker 1: seriously said we should implement the twenty fifth Amendment, which 769 00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:22,319 Speaker 1: is essentially a coup. I mean, it's essentially treason to 770 00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:24,719 Speaker 1: say we're going to remove this president based on what 771 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:28,520 Speaker 1: based on nothing, and that is the person who is 772 00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:32,440 Speaker 1: acting director of the FBI on Komi's recommendation. It brings 773 00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:36,479 Speaker 1: into question every other subsequent investigation, and as you said, 774 00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:39,480 Speaker 1: Faiza carter Page, Look, carter Page has been accused of 775 00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:41,680 Speaker 1: treason for two and a half years. Now, what is 776 00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:45,920 Speaker 1: the evidence of that? Nothing? I totally agree with the 777 00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:51,799 Speaker 1: representative years Representative Chris Stewart. Where are we supposed to 778 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 1: look for this smoking gun, a gun of any a 779 00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:58,160 Speaker 1: water gun I would take at this point, give me something. 780 00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:02,440 Speaker 1: Two years in all the news coverage, all the supposed 781 00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:07,600 Speaker 1: bombshell stories, all the fake news everything, where is the 782 00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:11,239 Speaker 1: aha moment? And remember it's not just an aha moment, 783 00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:17,960 Speaker 1: it's where is the aha moment to justify this absolutely insane, 784 00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:25,080 Speaker 1: absolutely insane effort to try and get rid of this president? 785 00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:30,520 Speaker 1: Where is it? How could any of this be justified? 786 00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:36,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I see, you know Komi's staffer who is 787 00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:39,359 Speaker 1: like the like pajama boy meets the FBI, going on 788 00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:41,759 Speaker 1: TV at CNN all the time talking about how you 789 00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:43,799 Speaker 1: know this is all fine, and yeah they're gonna Muller 790 00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:46,040 Speaker 1: and you know he's one of these little Mueller cheerleaders. 791 00:47:46,239 --> 00:47:50,200 Speaker 1: They got a hole slew them over at CNN. Okay, 792 00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:53,320 Speaker 1: what are they cheering for? Exactly? What are we supposed 793 00:47:53,360 --> 00:48:00,839 Speaker 1: to find out. It's it's mind blow what has happened here, 794 00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:08,040 Speaker 1: It really is. It is completely and utterly wild. What 795 00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:11,160 Speaker 1: these These are democrats in bure you know, these are 796 00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:16,360 Speaker 1: Democrat bureaucrats. That's it. These are partisan actors in the 797 00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:20,920 Speaker 1: most powerful justice and law enforcement agencies in the country. 798 00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:24,480 Speaker 1: And they couldn't handle Hillary's loss, and they don't like 799 00:48:24,560 --> 00:48:27,520 Speaker 1: Trump and they think he's ikey, and so they wanted 800 00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:29,440 Speaker 1: to come up with some way to get rid of him. 801 00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:34,799 Speaker 1: And now this is you can't even deny it. How 802 00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:39,080 Speaker 1: is any other story right now about the Muller probe 803 00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:41,239 Speaker 1: getting any attention. I mean, you know, I know that 804 00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:46,440 Speaker 1: the media can't be trusted, but this is beyond this 805 00:48:46,520 --> 00:48:50,160 Speaker 1: is it's wild. I reading the stuff today with McCabe. 806 00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:53,919 Speaker 1: I also want to if he is not prosecuted, If 807 00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:57,440 Speaker 1: McCabe is not prosecuted for lying, justice is dead in 808 00:48:57,440 --> 00:49:02,919 Speaker 1: this country. McCabe multiple times under oath about a matter 809 00:49:03,040 --> 00:49:06,360 Speaker 1: under investigation and of importance to the FBI, to the 810 00:49:06,400 --> 00:49:10,560 Speaker 1: Department of Justice. If he is not prosecuted, justice in 811 00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:13,160 Speaker 1: this country is a sham. We have a two tiered 812 00:49:13,160 --> 00:49:15,000 Speaker 1: system of justice. I'm just gonna put it all on 813 00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:18,280 Speaker 1: this because I'm pretty confident they're not going to prosecute. 814 00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:23,520 Speaker 1: They're gonna find some special Oh, we like Andy, he 815 00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:26,239 Speaker 1: was one of us carve out for this guy. You know. 816 00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:28,839 Speaker 1: I'll say this. They do this at the FBI, at 817 00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:30,680 Speaker 1: the CIA. Man, if you get on the if you 818 00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:33,000 Speaker 1: get on the wrong side a loss of how the 819 00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:36,600 Speaker 1: CIA they throw you under the bus and light you 820 00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:40,640 Speaker 1: on fire. They don't care FBI, though, DJ they seem 821 00:49:40,719 --> 00:49:42,520 Speaker 1: to cover for their own in a weird way. So 822 00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:47,760 Speaker 1: we'll be right back. You're probably familiar with AARP.

Eighty percent of Democrats believe that 840 00:50:52,840 --> 00:50:55,400 Speaker 1: he should be impeached. Get up in the face of 841 00:50:55,440 --> 00:50:59,239 Speaker 1: some congress people. We're here to say that an agency 842 00:50:59,640 --> 00:51:05,200 Speaker 1: like ICE, which repeatedly and systematically violates human rights, does 843 00:51:05,239 --> 00:51:08,160 Speaker 1: not deserve a dime. I think we need to abolish ICE. 844 00:51:08,239 --> 00:51:12,400 Speaker 1: That seems really clear, eliminating ICE for instance, and President 845 00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:18,040 Speaker 1: Trump yes, by replacing ICE with something that reflects our morality. 846 00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 1: Capitalism without rules is theft, brothers and sisters. There's plenty 847 00:51:23,719 --> 00:51:27,000 Speaker 1: of money in the world. There's plenty of money in 848 00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:31,320 Speaker 1: this city. It's just in the wrong hands. Going to 849 00:51:31,360 --> 00:51:35,880 Speaker 1: a text. All your assets wherever located around the globe. 850 00:51:36,040 --> 00:51:37,880 Speaker 1: The world is going to end in twelve years if 851 00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:41,680 Speaker 1: we don't address climate change. Who came forward to save 852 00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:45,480 Speaker 1: Earth from the scourge of Nazi until talitarian regimes. We 853 00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:49,600 Speaker 1: came forward humanity is in crisis. For mothers in labor, 854 00:51:49,960 --> 00:51:53,680 Speaker 1: the infant would be delivered, the infant would be kept comfortable, 855 00:51:54,440 --> 00:51:58,040 Speaker 1: the infant would be resuscitated if that's what the mother 856 00:51:58,080 --> 00:52:01,680 Speaker 1: and the family desired, and then discussion would ensue between 857 00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:04,480 Speaker 1: the physicians and the mother. How late in the third 858 00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:08,520 Speaker 1: trimester could a physician perform an abortion if he indicated 859 00:52:08,560 --> 00:52:11,480 Speaker 1: it would impair the mental health of the woman? So 860 00:52:11,560 --> 00:52:14,399 Speaker 1: I mean through the third trimester. The third trimester goes 861 00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:16,799 Speaker 1: all the way up to forty weeks, okay, but to 862 00:52:16,840 --> 00:52:18,839 Speaker 1: the end of the third trimester, yep. I don't think 863 00:52:18,840 --> 00:52:20,680 Speaker 1: we have a limit in the bill where it's obvious 864 00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:22,839 Speaker 1: that a woman is about to give birth, she has 865 00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:25,719 Speaker 1: physical signs that she is about to give a birth, 866 00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:27,879 Speaker 1: would that still be a point at which she could 867 00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:32,920 Speaker 1: request an abortion if she was so certified she's dilating. 868 00:52:33,560 --> 00:52:39,840 Speaker 1: My bill would allow that. Yes, we are in a 869 00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:43,400 Speaker 1: war for the soul of this country, my friends, I know, 870 00:52:43,480 --> 00:52:47,920 Speaker 1: we just pulled together. There a whole bunch of different, 871 00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:52,320 Speaker 1: very memorable moments from the progressive left in recent weeks 872 00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:55,600 Speaker 1: and months. That is what we were up against. And 873 00:52:55,719 --> 00:52:58,880 Speaker 1: when you understand that, and you see and you hear 874 00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:04,879 Speaker 1: the radicalism of the Democratic Party, everything that we are 875 00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:10,680 Speaker 1: talking about now and finding out about McCabe, about the 876 00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:14,040 Speaker 1: invocation of the twenty fifth Amendment, about the effort to 877 00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:19,799 Speaker 1: engage in a soft coup against a duly elected president who, yes, 878 00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:23,520 Speaker 1: has has plenty of laws, folks, I'm aware of just 879 00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:25,840 Speaker 1: about all of them. No one's saying he's perfect, no 880 00:53:25,840 --> 00:53:27,920 Speaker 1: one saying he's been able to do everything he said 881 00:53:27,960 --> 00:53:30,160 Speaker 1: he's going to do. Yet I think he's a lot 882 00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:32,920 Speaker 1: better than Hillary Clinton, and I think that he's actually 883 00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:38,080 Speaker 1: done some pretty great stuff as president. Yet they absolutely 884 00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:42,040 Speaker 1: hate his guts and the same mentality that has people 885 00:53:42,080 --> 00:53:45,960 Speaker 1: that are supposed to be wise and educated and influential 886 00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:51,680 Speaker 1: clapping for the Green New Deal, clapping for infanticide in 887 00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:54,480 Speaker 1: those bills in Virginia and New York State. You know, 888 00:53:54,920 --> 00:53:59,240 Speaker 1: those same people get jobs in the federal government. Those 889 00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:04,239 Speaker 1: same people can become CIA or FBI director. Once you 890 00:54:04,360 --> 00:54:08,400 Speaker 1: understand that, then it's really not that surprising that Annie 891 00:54:08,440 --> 00:54:11,400 Speaker 1: McCabe is coming out and saying that they were running 892 00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:19,200 Speaker 1: essentially a counter intelligence operation, not investigation, account intelligence operation 893 00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:22,239 Speaker 1: against the president United States. I mean, they were thinking 894 00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:27,480 Speaker 1: about wiring up the acting Attorney General and the Deputy 895 00:54:27,480 --> 00:54:30,200 Speaker 1: Attorney General rather, and we're supposed to think that that 896 00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:34,799 Speaker 1: guy Rod Rosenstein is an honest arbiter of what's going 897 00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:36,680 Speaker 1: on in the Mother probe. I mean, who can take 898 00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:42,720 Speaker 1: this stuff seriously? Who can believe this this lunacy? Where's 899 00:54:42,760 --> 00:54:45,960 Speaker 1: the accountability, where's the honesty? I mean, CNN tonight was 900 00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:49,160 Speaker 1: running Chiron's on how breaking news. I'm not making this 901 00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:53,440 Speaker 1: up breaking news. President Trump's latest physical says he's obese. 902 00:54:56,480 --> 00:55:00,360 Speaker 1: I mean, they specialize now in fake news, wos and 903 00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:03,799 Speaker 1: fat shaming. Where's the President's an older guy? You know, 904 00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:06,480 Speaker 1: he's got a little more Trump's got a little more 905 00:55:06,560 --> 00:55:08,319 Speaker 1: junk in the trunk. He's got a little more to love. 906 00:55:08,360 --> 00:55:11,640 Speaker 1: You know, he's cuddling. Leave him, leave the man alone? 907 00:55:11,360 --> 00:55:15,080 Speaker 1: Did the MSNBC tried it out a former Obama doctor 908 00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:18,440 Speaker 1: who said, I'm a little concerned with Trump's difficulty finding 909 00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:22,240 Speaker 1: words when he speaks. Oh my gosh, they're going the healths. 910 00:55:23,040 --> 00:55:26,000 Speaker 1: They're not birthers, they're healths. The healths are back now surfacing. 911 00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:30,759 Speaker 1: We're gonna we're gonna start putting the psychiatric community from 912 00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:33,640 Speaker 1: afar right the the I'm gonna diagnose Trump without ever 913 00:55:33,680 --> 00:55:36,560 Speaker 1: having spoken to him, stuff which any actual psychiatrists will 914 00:55:36,560 --> 00:55:40,120 Speaker 1: tell you is wildly unethical. They're gonna start doing that. 915 00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:43,560 Speaker 1: I saw the president on TV you last night, bomb, 916 00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:47,719 Speaker 1: and I think that he's actually crazy. And we're coming up. 917 00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:52,880 Speaker 1: You got all these uh, all these people talking about 918 00:55:52,960 --> 00:55:56,040 Speaker 1: socialism all of a sudden. My great friend Winston Churchill, 919 00:55:56,120 --> 00:55:58,440 Speaker 1: you know, I know him and I commune with him 920 00:55:58,440 --> 00:56:01,640 Speaker 1: on a regular basis. Nowadays, if you're not a socialist 921 00:56:01,880 --> 00:56:04,239 Speaker 1: in your twenties, you have no heart. And if you're 922 00:56:04,239 --> 00:56:07,000 Speaker 1: not a capitalist in your thirties, you have no mind. 923 00:56:07,239 --> 00:56:11,759 Speaker 1: Working folks wants who embrace capitalism, not some state run, 924 00:56:12,080 --> 00:56:16,160 Speaker 1: state controlled socialism that will set our economy back one 925 00:56:16,239 --> 00:56:19,520 Speaker 1: hundred years or more. Just shows what happens when you 926 00:56:19,560 --> 00:56:22,640 Speaker 1: have a generation without growth. We're just beginning to get growth. 927 00:56:22,880 --> 00:56:25,640 Speaker 1: Is you get envy? And most Americans don't care if 928 00:56:25,680 --> 00:56:28,080 Speaker 1: Bill Gates is worth ninety six billion or nine hundred 929 00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:30,880 Speaker 1: and sixty trillion. They want to know are there opportunities 930 00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:33,640 Speaker 1: in life improving? Are their wages going up? Are they're 931 00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:35,880 Speaker 1: going to have chances for a better job for themselves, 932 00:56:36,080 --> 00:56:39,000 Speaker 1: better future for the kids. That's what Americans want this 933 00:56:39,160 --> 00:56:42,640 Speaker 1: redistribution mentality we have today, are they paying too much 934 00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:45,280 Speaker 1: or too little? Everyone should pay less and the government 935 00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:49,239 Speaker 1: would collect more from the prosperity resulting thereof. So they 936 00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:53,319 Speaker 1: now what democrats want. They want higher taxes. They are 937 00:56:53,400 --> 00:56:59,080 Speaker 1: embracing socialism. And I think it's important to take a 938 00:56:59,080 --> 00:57:01,160 Speaker 1: step back and say, well, hold on a second. It's 939 00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:04,480 Speaker 1: really not that they've changed all that much. It's not 940 00:57:04,600 --> 00:57:06,799 Speaker 1: that the agenda has all of a sudden been a 941 00:57:06,920 --> 00:57:12,239 Speaker 1: radical departure from what the agenda had previously been. It's 942 00:57:12,239 --> 00:57:15,080 Speaker 1: just that now they're open about what they're trying to accomplish. 943 00:57:15,080 --> 00:57:18,480 Speaker 1: It's that the ends have become so clear that it's 944 00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:22,720 Speaker 1: increasingly difficult, I think, for anybody to believe that they 945 00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:28,880 Speaker 1: aren't pushing openly for socialism. So this is a clarification. 946 00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:31,600 Speaker 1: It's not a sea change, it's not a massive shift 947 00:57:31,600 --> 00:57:35,600 Speaker 1: in mentality. This is a clarification on what the Democratic 948 00:57:35,640 --> 00:57:38,640 Speaker 1: Party is and has become. But I did think it 949 00:57:38,680 --> 00:57:41,400 Speaker 1: was an interesting and I was interesting to hear from 950 00:57:41,400 --> 00:57:44,360 Speaker 1: Steve Forbes. There you obviously had could Low being could Low, 951 00:57:44,560 --> 00:57:46,320 Speaker 1: I could look, I got it right. He's like, I 952 00:57:46,360 --> 00:57:48,280 Speaker 1: can see why people like the guy and why he 953 00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:50,280 Speaker 1: was a successful TV host and everything. He does have 954 00:57:50,360 --> 00:57:54,040 Speaker 1: a charm to him, for sure, but he could low 955 00:57:54,040 --> 00:57:56,400 Speaker 1: and Steve Forbes, Steve Forbes is talking about this too, 956 00:57:56,480 --> 00:58:01,520 Speaker 1: how people are feeling like they're not getting ahead, and 957 00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:03,800 Speaker 1: there are a lot of other people who do you 958 00:58:03,800 --> 00:58:08,120 Speaker 1: know the truth is that the kind of concentration of wealth. 959 00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:10,640 Speaker 1: And you know, some of my conservative friends get very 960 00:58:10,640 --> 00:58:12,760 Speaker 1: oh no, no, you can and the free market, the 961 00:58:12,760 --> 00:58:15,200 Speaker 1: free market, Well, when you have the kind of concentration 962 00:58:15,200 --> 00:58:17,680 Speaker 1: of wealth that we have seen now, you are talking 963 00:58:17,720 --> 00:58:24,800 Speaker 1: about the building of multi generational dynasties. And people that 964 00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:28,720 Speaker 1: are tied to are a part of those financial dynasties. 965 00:58:29,760 --> 00:58:31,440 Speaker 1: They are going to be living very different lives from 966 00:58:31,480 --> 00:58:34,760 Speaker 1: the folks who are competing on a global scale for 967 00:58:34,800 --> 00:58:40,080 Speaker 1: their jobs now and also are competing with the influx 968 00:58:40,280 --> 00:58:44,800 Speaker 1: of unskilled workers, which, as I've mentioned, I believe the 969 00:58:44,880 --> 00:58:49,120 Speaker 1: bill that the President is supposed to sign, Mike, do 970 00:58:49,160 --> 00:58:50,800 Speaker 1: we know when it's going to get signed? By the way, 971 00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:53,760 Speaker 1: do we know when when it's supposed to happen? I'm 972 00:58:53,760 --> 00:58:57,000 Speaker 1: pretty sure today, but a Donahemmerson's sure they haven't. I 973 00:58:57,000 --> 00:58:58,480 Speaker 1: guess they got to go through the process, right, But 974 00:58:58,480 --> 00:59:00,040 Speaker 1: I don't know if sometimes they get word out to 975 00:59:00,120 --> 00:59:02,480 Speaker 1: hear about how the bill will get signed at a 976 00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:08,520 Speaker 1: certain time. So regardless, I think that people look at 977 00:59:08,560 --> 00:59:11,320 Speaker 1: this now and they say, hold on a second, I 978 00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:15,000 Speaker 1: have to compete with a globalized economy, which was not 979 00:59:15,840 --> 00:59:18,760 Speaker 1: the case before the internet. The technology of the Internet 980 00:59:18,840 --> 00:59:22,120 Speaker 1: has dramatically changed things. A lot of great stuff, but 981 00:59:22,240 --> 00:59:26,640 Speaker 1: also some pretty serious social upheaval and shifts that have 982 00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:28,840 Speaker 1: occurred as a result of it. And then you've got 983 00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:31,720 Speaker 1: the influx of legal and illegal labor. By the the 984 00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:35,920 Speaker 1: legal labor issues, there's gonna be more, is it h 985 00:59:36,000 --> 00:59:38,040 Speaker 1: one bs? I gotta check. But they're they're bringing in 986 00:59:38,080 --> 00:59:42,240 Speaker 1: even more people to come to the legal immigration process 987 00:59:42,240 --> 00:59:44,240 Speaker 1: as part of this bill. They always like to sneak 988 00:59:44,280 --> 00:59:46,160 Speaker 1: that stuff in there because the donor class likes it. 989 00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:49,960 Speaker 1: The donor class likes it, and what you end up seeing, 990 00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:53,480 Speaker 1: and this is what is really concerning to me going 991 00:59:53,560 --> 00:59:56,439 Speaker 1: to twenty twenty is an economy that right now, because 992 00:59:56,480 --> 01:00:00,280 Speaker 1: things feel pretty stable, it's fine if things get really bad, 993 01:00:00,800 --> 01:00:03,880 Speaker 1: if we have a maid and remember, nobody saw the 994 01:00:03,880 --> 01:00:05,720 Speaker 1: major you know, if you could see a major downturn 995 01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:08,640 Speaker 1: coming maybe you could avert it. We got twenty two 996 01:00:08,680 --> 01:00:12,440 Speaker 1: trillion dollars of debt right now. You go back to 997 01:00:12,520 --> 01:00:14,720 Speaker 1: two thousand and eight, I was working at the CIA. 998 01:00:14,720 --> 01:00:17,600 Speaker 1: I remember when the first real murmurs of the financial 999 01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:21,400 Speaker 1: crisis we're starting to, you know, bubble up to the surface. 1000 01:00:22,800 --> 01:00:24,600 Speaker 1: People didn't know, and by the time they knew, it 1001 01:00:24,680 --> 01:00:28,480 Speaker 1: was too late. You know. Once Lehman Brothers was the 1002 01:00:28,600 --> 01:00:31,600 Speaker 1: first one to be sacrificed of these Wall Street banks 1003 01:00:31,640 --> 01:00:37,360 Speaker 1: for its profligate insanity. Once that happened, then it was like, 1004 01:00:37,400 --> 01:00:39,080 Speaker 1: oh wow, we got a real problem here. But it's 1005 01:00:39,120 --> 01:00:42,760 Speaker 1: too late to just sort of turn around the cruise ship. 1006 01:00:42,760 --> 01:00:44,640 Speaker 1: At that point, you're heading. You're heading for the rocks. 1007 01:00:45,320 --> 01:00:47,560 Speaker 1: If we get a bad economy going into twenty twenty, 1008 01:00:47,600 --> 01:00:50,120 Speaker 1: the Trump administration is going to be in trouble for reelection, 1009 01:00:50,400 --> 01:00:52,880 Speaker 1: and socialism is going to sound very appealing to a 1010 01:00:52,920 --> 01:00:55,840 Speaker 1: lot of people. Remember it doesn't have to sound appealing 1011 01:00:55,880 --> 01:00:58,000 Speaker 1: to eighty percent of the country. It just has to 1012 01:00:58,040 --> 01:01:02,800 Speaker 1: sound appealing to enough people to win, to win the 1013 01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:08,360 Speaker 1: electoral college. And we're talking about a few hundred thousand 1014 01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:13,560 Speaker 1: people likely being the determining factor in that. So this 1015 01:01:13,680 --> 01:01:17,640 Speaker 1: is not oh my gosh, there are there's no way 1016 01:01:17,680 --> 01:01:19,600 Speaker 1: that these you know, on the one hand, I'm talking 1017 01:01:19,600 --> 01:01:21,640 Speaker 1: about how extreme the left is, and that's important so 1018 01:01:21,680 --> 01:01:24,920 Speaker 1: that we know these are unseerious people. But just because 1019 01:01:24,920 --> 01:01:29,040 Speaker 1: they're unserious in their policy it does not mean they 1020 01:01:29,040 --> 01:01:33,200 Speaker 1: are not a serious threat to implement those policies. Just 1021 01:01:33,200 --> 01:01:35,320 Speaker 1: because they're nuts doesn't mean they can't be in control. 1022 01:01:36,440 --> 01:01:42,760 Speaker 1: And the hyper capitalist feeling right now in some sectors 1023 01:01:42,760 --> 01:01:46,560 Speaker 1: of the Republican Party, where any kind of economic nationalism, 1024 01:01:46,640 --> 01:01:49,480 Speaker 1: any sense of a duty to country and not just 1025 01:01:49,520 --> 01:01:52,280 Speaker 1: to the global free market, which, as I've been saying, 1026 01:01:52,440 --> 01:01:55,360 Speaker 1: is not truly free. That's looked down upon for the 1027 01:01:55,360 --> 01:01:59,440 Speaker 1: most part on the right, except for Trump, but you 1028 01:01:59,480 --> 01:02:04,520 Speaker 1: still have the conservative mainstream and most of the establishment 1029 01:02:04,560 --> 01:02:08,840 Speaker 1: Republican Party thinks that telling people, you know, learn to code, 1030 01:02:09,560 --> 01:02:11,840 Speaker 1: which now we've turned around on liberal journalists of course, 1031 01:02:11,880 --> 01:02:16,000 Speaker 1: but telling people learn to code is a solution. You 1032 01:02:16,000 --> 01:02:19,520 Speaker 1: should just adapt to the change in the marketplace. Well, 1033 01:02:20,080 --> 01:02:25,240 Speaker 1: it's simply not that simple. And I think that this 1034 01:02:25,360 --> 01:02:28,600 Speaker 1: is this is a moment that the Republican Party needs 1035 01:02:28,600 --> 01:02:31,120 Speaker 1: to really make sure that it stays connected with normal, 1036 01:02:31,600 --> 01:02:36,400 Speaker 1: everyday folks who do feel like there's something there's something 1037 01:02:36,720 --> 01:02:40,920 Speaker 1: amiss that the concentration of wealth that's going on. It's 1038 01:02:41,000 --> 01:02:43,600 Speaker 1: not the one percent, it's really the point zero zero 1039 01:02:43,680 --> 01:02:48,360 Speaker 1: one percent. But the concentration of wealth allows people to 1040 01:02:48,480 --> 01:02:51,600 Speaker 1: have not just an outsized influence in everything that's going 1041 01:02:51,640 --> 01:02:53,320 Speaker 1: on in the country. We see this with the bezos 1042 01:02:53,440 --> 01:02:57,400 Speaker 1: Is and the Bloombergs and others, but also there's a 1043 01:02:57,440 --> 01:03:01,640 Speaker 1: sense that there are far too all to create lives 1044 01:03:01,680 --> 01:03:04,920 Speaker 1: that separate them from the Americans that they should be 1045 01:03:04,960 --> 01:03:07,080 Speaker 1: ostensibly living next to and dealing with. And you know, 1046 01:03:07,160 --> 01:03:09,240 Speaker 1: Charles Murray does a very good job of this in 1047 01:03:09,280 --> 01:03:11,200 Speaker 1: a book that I recommend to all of you coming Apart, 1048 01:03:11,840 --> 01:03:14,120 Speaker 1: where he says that this is no longer you know, 1049 01:03:14,120 --> 01:03:17,880 Speaker 1: the CEO lives in a bigger house than his workers, 1050 01:03:17,960 --> 01:03:20,720 Speaker 1: but he lives in the same general neighborhood. Maybe he 1051 01:03:20,800 --> 01:03:23,520 Speaker 1: drives a fancier car, but his kids go to the 1052 01:03:23,560 --> 01:03:26,919 Speaker 1: same school as some of the workers do. Or you know, ah, 1053 01:03:27,400 --> 01:03:31,240 Speaker 1: these people are living at a different financial universe now. 1054 01:03:31,760 --> 01:03:33,800 Speaker 1: And you can say, Buck, that's fine, that's great. They're 1055 01:03:33,800 --> 01:03:36,640 Speaker 1: the people that give everyone else jobs. Right, Well, there's 1056 01:03:36,640 --> 01:03:38,880 Speaker 1: the economic reality, and there's the political reality, and they 1057 01:03:38,880 --> 01:03:43,960 Speaker 1: don't necessarily meet up, and they're not necessarily the same thing. 1058 01:03:43,960 --> 01:03:46,959 Speaker 1: In fact, they're often not the same thing. And that's 1059 01:03:46,960 --> 01:03:50,800 Speaker 1: why I think when we're talking about what these super 1060 01:03:50,880 --> 01:03:55,080 Speaker 1: lefties are pushing for, we need to be careful. You know. 1061 01:03:55,280 --> 01:03:57,120 Speaker 1: It's one thing. Yeah, I can make fun of them 1062 01:03:57,120 --> 01:04:01,560 Speaker 1: and all. That's all well and good. If things get 1063 01:04:01,560 --> 01:04:03,640 Speaker 1: really nasty in the economy, though, and it could be cyclical, 1064 01:04:03,640 --> 01:04:04,960 Speaker 1: it might not be Trump's fault. I don't think it 1065 01:04:04,960 --> 01:04:09,040 Speaker 1: would be Trump's fault. You could have a rush, a 1066 01:04:09,120 --> 01:04:12,240 Speaker 1: kind of stampede left in which socialism would be a 1067 01:04:12,320 --> 01:04:16,040 Speaker 1: much more serious, we're much more imminent concern for all 1068 01:04:16,080 --> 01:04:19,040 Speaker 1: of us. But then again, there's also AOC who's going 1069 01:04:19,080 --> 01:04:22,160 Speaker 1: to say a lot of dumb stuff. Medicare for all 1070 01:04:22,280 --> 01:04:26,600 Speaker 1: would save the American people a very large amount of money. 1071 01:04:26,640 --> 01:04:29,520 Speaker 1: Why aren't we incorporating the cost of all the funeral 1072 01:04:29,560 --> 01:04:32,960 Speaker 1: expenses of those who die because they can't afford access 1073 01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:35,240 Speaker 1: to healthcare. We look at these figures and we say, oh, 1074 01:04:35,320 --> 01:04:39,000 Speaker 1: unemployment is low, everything is fine, right, Well, unemployment is 1075 01:04:39,040 --> 01:04:41,480 Speaker 1: low because everyone has two jobs. I need to occupy 1076 01:04:41,560 --> 01:04:44,640 Speaker 1: every airport, we need to occupy every border, We need 1077 01:04:44,680 --> 01:04:48,000 Speaker 1: to occupy every ice office if we work our butts 1078 01:04:48,040 --> 01:04:50,439 Speaker 1: off to make sure that we take back all three 1079 01:04:50,520 --> 01:04:54,720 Speaker 1: chambers of Congress, rather all three chambers of government, the Presidency, 1080 01:04:54,880 --> 01:04:57,160 Speaker 1: the Senate, and the House. You use the term the 1081 01:04:57,240 --> 01:05:03,880 Speaker 1: occupation of Palestine. What did you mean by that? Oh? 1082 01:05:03,920 --> 01:05:07,600 Speaker 1: I think what I meant is like the settlement. Just 1083 01:05:07,840 --> 01:05:10,680 Speaker 1: last year, we gave the military a seven hundred billion 1084 01:05:10,720 --> 01:05:15,200 Speaker 1: dollars attack, a budget increase which they didn't even ask for, 1085 01:05:15,760 --> 01:05:18,520 Speaker 1: and we're like, the world is going to end in 1086 01:05:18,520 --> 01:05:21,800 Speaker 1: twelve years. I'm getting climate change. I'm gonna stop. I mean, 1087 01:05:21,880 --> 01:05:23,680 Speaker 1: the folks listening are probably like, Buck, what are you doing? 1088 01:05:24,400 --> 01:05:27,760 Speaker 1: That voice that you hear, Remember all the dumb things 1089 01:05:27,800 --> 01:05:29,600 Speaker 1: that we just pulled together there for you. That voice 1090 01:05:29,600 --> 01:05:35,240 Speaker 1: that you hear is currently the most prominent and probably 1091 01:05:35,320 --> 01:05:39,000 Speaker 1: in the left wing zeitgeist politician in the Democratic Party 1092 01:05:39,080 --> 01:05:42,960 Speaker 1: right now. It's hilarious and terrifying at the same time. 1093 01:05:43,800 --> 01:05:47,040 Speaker 1: And if we have a major financial downturn, it'll be 1094 01:05:47,080 --> 01:05:51,439 Speaker 1: mostly terrifying. What happens next. That's the first time he's 1095 01:05:51,480 --> 01:05:54,720 Speaker 1: given a detailed account, an account that Chicago police have 1096 01:05:54,800 --> 01:05:57,520 Speaker 1: said has been consistent. He hasn't changed his story. They 1097 01:05:57,560 --> 01:06:00,480 Speaker 1: also said it's credible. Police have said that also that 1098 01:06:00,520 --> 01:06:04,560 Speaker 1: he has been very cooperative. Have you ever been threatened before? Yeah? 1099 01:06:04,600 --> 01:06:07,240 Speaker 1: I get threatened all the time. And I asked him 1100 01:06:07,240 --> 01:06:09,040 Speaker 1: about if there were other possible threats that he had, 1101 01:06:09,440 --> 01:06:11,280 Speaker 1: threats that he had received, and he did talk about 1102 01:06:11,640 --> 01:06:14,360 Speaker 1: the letter that was sent to the Fox studio. Police 1103 01:06:14,360 --> 01:06:18,800 Speaker 1: have confirmed that letter, and despite lack of video surveillance footage, 1104 01:06:18,960 --> 01:06:22,120 Speaker 1: Smalltt hopes to rewrite the narrative about that night. There's 1105 01:06:22,160 --> 01:06:24,720 Speaker 1: many reasons why Jesse wanted to sit down and do this. 1106 01:06:24,920 --> 01:06:27,160 Speaker 1: First of us to say thank you to his many supporters. 1107 01:06:27,520 --> 01:06:29,280 Speaker 1: The times when he became emotional is when he was 1108 01:06:29,320 --> 01:06:32,760 Speaker 1: talking about gay youth in the LGBTQ community. What do 1109 01:06:32,800 --> 01:06:35,600 Speaker 1: you say to a young gay man, a young gay 1110 01:06:35,640 --> 01:06:38,200 Speaker 1: person to learn to fight? Why do you think you 1111 01:06:38,240 --> 01:06:43,320 Speaker 1: were targeted? I can just assume. I mean I come really, 1112 01:06:43,360 --> 01:06:48,720 Speaker 1: really hard against forty five. As I said earlier, The 1113 01:06:48,800 --> 01:06:51,680 Speaker 1: police have said he's been consistent, that he has been credible, 1114 01:06:51,800 --> 01:06:56,360 Speaker 1: that he has been cooperative. Ending. Wow, they're trying really hard, guys, 1115 01:06:56,440 --> 01:07:00,160 Speaker 1: to make the Jessie Smallett story seemed like it all 1116 01:07:00,160 --> 01:07:04,080 Speaker 1: holds together. And what you are also hearing there and 1117 01:07:04,120 --> 01:07:06,920 Speaker 1: that was all from what Robin, what's your from ABC? 1118 01:07:07,040 --> 01:07:12,080 Speaker 1: What's your name? Robin Roberts, Thank you Robin Roberts. Who 1119 01:07:12,200 --> 01:07:15,760 Speaker 1: is setting it up so that he's essentially now a 1120 01:07:15,760 --> 01:07:19,520 Speaker 1: hero even if he made this up, why might because 1121 01:07:19,520 --> 01:07:25,800 Speaker 1: he has raised awareness of anti LGBTQ sentiment, He has 1122 01:07:25,880 --> 01:07:30,200 Speaker 1: raised awareness of the vitriol across the country because of Trump. 1123 01:07:30,520 --> 01:07:33,240 Speaker 1: And even if he lied to raise the awareness, it's fine. 1124 01:07:33,880 --> 01:07:36,240 Speaker 1: He's already a hero because he's speaking out. They have 1125 01:07:36,400 --> 01:07:40,160 Speaker 1: they have built this guy. Look, it's there's a part 1126 01:07:40,200 --> 01:07:41,880 Speaker 1: of me that that's sort of the same way that 1127 01:07:42,200 --> 01:07:44,480 Speaker 1: the Fire Festival Guy and those who are listening to 1128 01:07:44,480 --> 01:07:46,440 Speaker 1: the show, If you have not watched on either Netflix 1129 01:07:46,560 --> 01:07:49,440 Speaker 1: or Hulu the Fire Festival documentary, I'm telling you it's 1130 01:07:49,440 --> 01:07:52,760 Speaker 1: worth your time. It's pretty incredible. I've watched them both. 1131 01:07:52,960 --> 01:07:54,640 Speaker 1: I've heard there's a third one even though might be 1132 01:07:54,640 --> 01:07:57,680 Speaker 1: coming out. I think you you've got to check out. 1133 01:07:57,960 --> 01:08:01,400 Speaker 1: But the Fire Festival Guy is a massive fraud, a liar, 1134 01:08:01,440 --> 01:08:04,760 Speaker 1: and hurt a lot of people that said the hubris 1135 01:08:05,240 --> 01:08:09,000 Speaker 1: and the skill with which he executes that con right, 1136 01:08:09,120 --> 01:08:11,960 Speaker 1: I mean you all, you've almost got to respect I mean, 1137 01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:14,560 Speaker 1: he's a horrible guy that you've almost got to respect. Yeah, yeah, 1138 01:08:14,560 --> 01:08:18,599 Speaker 1: it's insane. He was a sociopath. But I jusi's smallest 1139 01:08:18,680 --> 01:08:21,439 Speaker 1: story here, And look is it? Am I am? I 1140 01:08:21,520 --> 01:08:24,920 Speaker 1: one hundred percent sure he's lying. No, I'm ninety nine 1141 01:08:24,960 --> 01:08:27,960 Speaker 1: percent sure he's lying. Now I'm not ninety nine percent sure. 1142 01:08:27,960 --> 01:08:30,160 Speaker 1: And we've talked about this that nothing happened to him 1143 01:08:30,240 --> 01:08:32,040 Speaker 1: and then he didn't maybe have some kind of a 1144 01:08:33,160 --> 01:08:35,200 Speaker 1: you know, a scuffle on the street with some people. 1145 01:08:35,240 --> 01:08:37,639 Speaker 1: I just don't believe all these flourishes about the noose 1146 01:08:37,760 --> 01:08:41,600 Speaker 1: and the Maga country and all that just doesn't doesn't wash. 1147 01:08:41,680 --> 01:08:44,200 Speaker 1: So what do you got? I was just saying, like, 1148 01:08:44,240 --> 01:08:46,400 Speaker 1: you're right, It's like, how come all these Robbin Roberts 1149 01:08:46,439 --> 01:08:48,880 Speaker 1: questions were all about like the actives inside, But how 1150 01:08:48,880 --> 01:08:51,320 Speaker 1: come they weren't about details of the attack. Yeah, it's 1151 01:08:51,360 --> 01:08:52,880 Speaker 1: a say, it was a say it was a puff piece. 1152 01:08:52,920 --> 01:08:54,760 Speaker 1: I mean it was a let's make this guy into 1153 01:08:54,800 --> 01:08:58,120 Speaker 1: a hero such that it will be irrelevant. I'd be 1154 01:08:58,160 --> 01:09:00,120 Speaker 1: asking what the guy look like, what they say are 1155 01:09:00,160 --> 01:09:02,040 Speaker 1: they from? Why they approach you? We're worried before they 1156 01:09:02,040 --> 01:09:04,280 Speaker 1: approached you. You stop with all that stop with all 1157 01:09:04,280 --> 01:09:06,800 Speaker 1: that truth searching stuff. I just want to point out 1158 01:09:06,800 --> 01:09:10,320 Speaker 1: that Kyle Smith over at National Review wrote this today, 1159 01:09:10,400 --> 01:09:14,879 Speaker 1: Jesse Smollett changes his story again. The actor Jesse Smollett 1160 01:09:14,920 --> 01:09:17,439 Speaker 1: talked about the alleged January twentieth attack on him during 1161 01:09:17,439 --> 01:09:20,320 Speaker 1: a Fridge of nine in Chicago, giving Good Morning America 1162 01:09:20,360 --> 01:09:24,280 Speaker 1: his fullest description yet of his claims. It differs substantially 1163 01:09:24,439 --> 01:09:26,919 Speaker 1: from what he told police initially after the alleged assault. 1164 01:09:27,600 --> 01:09:30,400 Speaker 1: Smollett told GMA that the alleged attack began with a 1165 01:09:30,520 --> 01:09:34,000 Speaker 1: nasty comment from one person who accosted him on the street. 1166 01:09:34,439 --> 01:09:39,120 Speaker 1: He heard someone yell empire and then f empire and 1167 01:09:39,200 --> 01:09:41,599 Speaker 1: then the N word, and then he replied, he now says, 1168 01:09:41,640 --> 01:09:44,000 Speaker 1: what the f did you do to me? The man added, 1169 01:09:44,040 --> 01:09:47,280 Speaker 1: this is maga country N word, then punched him in 1170 01:09:47,320 --> 01:09:49,840 Speaker 1: the face. He says he fought with the two attackers, 1171 01:09:49,840 --> 01:09:52,320 Speaker 1: and as the two tussled, he became aware that a 1172 01:09:52,400 --> 01:09:56,360 Speaker 1: second assailant was present, kicking his back. After all of this, 1173 01:09:56,439 --> 01:09:59,759 Speaker 1: the two assailants simply ran away, and a shaken Smollett 1174 01:09:59,760 --> 01:10:02,519 Speaker 1: real that there was a rope around his neck. Police 1175 01:10:02,560 --> 01:10:04,519 Speaker 1: has said that there's only a sixty second gap in 1176 01:10:04,560 --> 01:10:06,680 Speaker 1: the surveillance footage between an image of small with no 1177 01:10:06,840 --> 01:10:09,160 Speaker 1: rope around his neck and an image of him with 1178 01:10:09,280 --> 01:10:12,840 Speaker 1: a rope around his neck. He told both GMA that 1179 01:10:12,880 --> 01:10:15,360 Speaker 1: he was talking to his manager Brandon Moore during the 1180 01:10:15,400 --> 01:10:18,240 Speaker 1: attack and that the phone was in his pocket, but 1181 01:10:18,360 --> 01:10:20,920 Speaker 1: that it fell on the ground in the scuffle. After 1182 01:10:20,920 --> 01:10:23,759 Speaker 1: the encounter, Smallett realized that Moore was still on the line, 1183 01:10:24,200 --> 01:10:26,519 Speaker 1: he picked up the phone and shouted it more, there's 1184 01:10:26,560 --> 01:10:29,960 Speaker 1: a blanking rope around my neck. He didn't call the 1185 01:10:29,960 --> 01:10:31,799 Speaker 1: police to tell them about the attack and the direction 1186 01:10:31,840 --> 01:10:34,800 Speaker 1: in which his attackers had fled. This is where and 1187 01:10:34,960 --> 01:10:37,240 Speaker 1: so that's this is all from Kyle Smith's breaking down 1188 01:10:37,280 --> 01:10:39,679 Speaker 1: the versions of the story over Nashal review. He writes, 1189 01:10:40,160 --> 01:10:43,400 Speaker 1: in previous versions of the story, Smollett didn't mention the 1190 01:10:43,439 --> 01:10:47,479 Speaker 1: Maga comment in his first interview with police. Forty minutes later, 1191 01:10:47,520 --> 01:10:51,920 Speaker 1: and b in a TMZ story based on sources directly 1192 01:10:52,400 --> 01:10:55,840 Speaker 1: connected to Jessie, said the attackers yelled this is Maga 1193 01:10:55,880 --> 01:11:01,960 Speaker 1: country without the N word. Not at the outset of attack, 1194 01:11:02,040 --> 01:11:04,320 Speaker 1: by the way, by the way, but as they were leaving. 1195 01:11:05,360 --> 01:11:08,639 Speaker 1: That TMZ story also claimed Smollett had suffered a fractured rib. 1196 01:11:09,560 --> 01:11:12,559 Speaker 1: Smollett now says he suffered merely a bruise rib. That's 1197 01:11:12,680 --> 01:11:16,280 Speaker 1: a pretty substantial difference too. And then you have the 1198 01:11:16,320 --> 01:11:20,639 Speaker 1: police request here in the report, which was foyed. Males 1199 01:11:20,720 --> 01:11:24,200 Speaker 1: dressed in black, one with a black ski mask covering 1200 01:11:24,240 --> 01:11:28,320 Speaker 1: his face, appeared simultaneously and both began with verbal abuse. 1201 01:11:29,200 --> 01:11:31,320 Speaker 1: There was no delay between when Smollett became aware of 1202 01:11:31,320 --> 01:11:34,639 Speaker 1: the first and second attack. The report says two unknown 1203 01:11:34,680 --> 01:11:39,160 Speaker 1: males approached him and gained his attention by yelling empire redacted, 1204 01:11:39,200 --> 01:11:43,960 Speaker 1: redacted homophobic racial slurs. Yet Smollett told GMA, I saw 1205 01:11:44,000 --> 01:11:46,840 Speaker 1: where they ran. How does he know now if he 1206 01:11:46,880 --> 01:11:49,519 Speaker 1: did not know then, because in the initial police report 1207 01:11:49,640 --> 01:11:52,960 Speaker 1: said the victim does not remember any distinguishing features or 1208 01:11:53,000 --> 01:11:56,559 Speaker 1: in which direction they fled. So the police report is 1209 01:11:56,600 --> 01:11:58,320 Speaker 1: inconsistent with the stuff that he's saying on Tim. And 1210 01:11:58,320 --> 01:12:00,200 Speaker 1: there's more and more. I'm not gonna read all of 1211 01:12:00,280 --> 01:12:02,519 Speaker 1: Kyle's piece or two, but there's more and more of this. Now. 1212 01:12:02,560 --> 01:12:05,800 Speaker 1: I understand that people are going to say, oh buck, 1213 01:12:05,920 --> 01:12:08,679 Speaker 1: in the heat of the moment, when one is scared 1214 01:12:09,400 --> 01:12:13,240 Speaker 1: and frightened and all that. In the heat of the 1215 01:12:13,280 --> 01:12:20,439 Speaker 1: moment you could forget details. How many allowances here are 1216 01:12:20,439 --> 01:12:23,440 Speaker 1: we going to make for this guy? How many? Yeah, 1217 01:12:23,479 --> 01:12:27,320 Speaker 1: that doesn't really add up, but maybe it's possible. I 1218 01:12:27,360 --> 01:12:30,120 Speaker 1: think we all know the answer to that. The only 1219 01:12:30,120 --> 01:12:32,160 Speaker 1: reason I stay on this is because in the first 1220 01:12:32,240 --> 01:12:34,280 Speaker 1: days when I was skeptical, I got a lot of 1221 01:12:34,680 --> 01:12:36,799 Speaker 1: I got a lot of heat from some people on Twitter, 1222 01:12:36,920 --> 01:12:40,160 Speaker 1: some blue check mark folks on Twitter, and I just 1223 01:12:40,200 --> 01:12:42,360 Speaker 1: want to follow on this because they're gonna drop this 1224 01:12:42,439 --> 01:12:46,040 Speaker 1: story and it's gonna be like it never happened. And 1225 01:12:46,080 --> 01:12:49,120 Speaker 1: they're gonna drop the story because no one's going to 1226 01:12:49,160 --> 01:12:51,519 Speaker 1: believe that it's true anymore. We're not there yet. There's 1227 01:12:51,520 --> 01:12:54,240 Speaker 1: some people still believe this, Fewer and fewer people are 1228 01:12:54,240 --> 01:12:58,240 Speaker 1: believing it, and I'm not gonna let it go. Don't 1229 01:12:58,320 --> 01:13:03,840 Speaker 1: go with some liberal email system. Okay, they support progressive causes, 1230 01:13:03,880 --> 01:13:07,200 Speaker 1: they do not share your values. You want a great 1231 01:13:07,320 --> 01:13:11,000 Speaker 1: email system that will make sure that they are supporting 1232 01:13:11,080 --> 01:13:14,200 Speaker 1: your values, and that's what you get with ipatriots dot us. 1233 01:13:14,400 --> 01:13:18,439 Speaker 1: Ipatriots dot us is the conservative alternative to liberal based 1234 01:13:18,479 --> 01:13:21,439 Speaker 1: email services.

It's that's where 1251 01:14:19,880 --> 01:14:23,760 Speaker 1: our friend Andy know who did all that work on Antifa, 1252 01:14:23,880 --> 01:14:26,080 Speaker 1: that's where he works. That's what he has been up to. 1253 01:14:26,680 --> 01:14:30,400 Speaker 1: But this piece is really a must read, and it's 1254 01:14:30,439 --> 01:14:35,920 Speaker 1: called public Education, Dirty Secret, written by woman named Mary Hudson. 1255 01:14:36,760 --> 01:14:38,800 Speaker 1: Now I've talked to producer Mike about this one because 1256 01:14:38,840 --> 01:14:40,680 Speaker 1: I asked Mary to come on the show, and we 1257 01:14:40,680 --> 01:14:43,800 Speaker 1: are an email contacts. She knows who I am. But 1258 01:14:43,880 --> 01:14:46,679 Speaker 1: she has a PhD in French. I think in French 1259 01:14:46,760 --> 01:14:50,160 Speaker 1: literature or maybe just French language. I forget and Mike, 1260 01:14:50,439 --> 01:14:52,599 Speaker 1: if you're teaching and you have a PhD in French, 1261 01:14:52,760 --> 01:14:55,919 Speaker 1: not a PhD in astrophysics or something, or you know, chemistry, 1262 01:14:55,960 --> 01:14:59,120 Speaker 1: PhD in French, you're probably a live right, So which 1263 01:14:59,160 --> 01:15:00,960 Speaker 1: is okay? Eto she She may be a little I 1264 01:15:00,960 --> 01:15:02,559 Speaker 1: don't know if she's a lib or not. We're just 1265 01:15:02,600 --> 01:15:05,680 Speaker 1: playing that. We're playing the odds here because she didn't 1266 01:15:05,720 --> 01:15:07,479 Speaker 1: respond when I said, would you like to come on? 1267 01:15:08,080 --> 01:15:09,599 Speaker 1: You know, would you I've never heard of her before. 1268 01:15:10,240 --> 01:15:12,679 Speaker 1: She's just an educator from what I understand. We did 1269 01:15:12,760 --> 01:15:16,439 Speaker 1: ask her to come on the show, and she ghosted me, 1270 01:15:16,479 --> 01:15:18,920 Speaker 1: man ghosted me. So I don't know what to tell you. 1271 01:15:19,040 --> 01:15:20,680 Speaker 1: She said, I heard you really like my piece. That's 1272 01:15:20,680 --> 01:15:22,240 Speaker 1: really nice. And I said, yes, we want to have 1273 01:15:22,240 --> 01:15:26,280 Speaker 1: you on, ready to talk about it silence or as 1274 01:15:26,280 --> 01:15:30,240 Speaker 1: we say, radio silence. So now I'm gonna talk about 1275 01:15:30,240 --> 01:15:32,599 Speaker 1: her piece without her Because I tried, right, we invited 1276 01:15:32,600 --> 01:15:33,720 Speaker 1: her on. I wanted her to be the one to 1277 01:15:33,760 --> 01:15:36,439 Speaker 1: tell us about it. You have got to read this thing. 1278 01:15:37,400 --> 01:15:40,040 Speaker 1: It's I want to just read the opening paragraph, and 1279 01:15:40,040 --> 01:15:42,840 Speaker 1: then I'll kind of tell you all about how she's 1280 01:15:42,840 --> 01:15:47,080 Speaker 1: tackling some of the sacred cows of the public education system, 1281 01:15:48,120 --> 01:15:54,800 Speaker 1: how she is completely fed up with what has been 1282 01:15:54,800 --> 01:15:56,439 Speaker 1: going on in some of the schools that she worked 1283 01:15:56,439 --> 01:15:58,479 Speaker 1: in a New York City. Let me just give you 1284 01:15:58,479 --> 01:16:00,439 Speaker 1: at this is our opening paragraph. Then i'll tell you 1285 01:16:00,439 --> 01:16:03,559 Speaker 1: the stuff she talks about. Bad teaching is a common 1286 01:16:03,600 --> 01:16:08,720 Speaker 1: explanation given for the disastrously inadequate public education received by 1287 01:16:08,720 --> 01:16:13,800 Speaker 1: America's most vulnerable populations. This is a myth. Aside from 1288 01:16:13,840 --> 01:16:16,880 Speaker 1: a few lemons who were notable for their rarity, the 1289 01:16:16,920 --> 01:16:19,120 Speaker 1: majority of teachers I worked with for nine years in 1290 01:16:19,160 --> 01:16:22,960 Speaker 1: New York City's public school system or dedicated talented professionals 1291 01:16:23,479 --> 01:16:26,960 Speaker 1: before joining the system. I was mystified by these schools 1292 01:16:27,040 --> 01:16:30,840 Speaker 1: abysmal results. I too, assume there must be something wrong 1293 01:16:30,880 --> 01:16:34,080 Speaker 1: with the teaching. This could not have been farther from 1294 01:16:34,120 --> 01:16:38,920 Speaker 1: the truth. Teaching French and Italian job balat, that's all 1295 01:16:38,960 --> 01:16:42,440 Speaker 1: anyone knows how to say Italian right that? And Luella, 1296 01:16:43,000 --> 01:16:46,400 Speaker 1: which I guess isn't really Italian, but true or false. Guys, 1297 01:16:46,439 --> 01:16:49,800 Speaker 1: you put into tela on anything, it is delicious. It's 1298 01:16:49,880 --> 01:16:51,160 Speaker 1: dangerous to have it in your house because all of 1299 01:16:51,200 --> 01:16:53,960 Speaker 1: a sudden you be like, oh, like that old banana peal, 1300 01:16:54,280 --> 01:16:56,760 Speaker 1: that'll taste great with some motela on it if you 1301 01:16:56,800 --> 01:16:59,080 Speaker 1: don't have anything better. Mike, you know you'll do it exactly. 1302 01:16:59,320 --> 01:17:01,680 Speaker 1: I haven't got in years because I instantly put on 1303 01:17:01,680 --> 01:17:03,280 Speaker 1: twenty pens. I can't even tell you. I know I 1304 01:17:03,280 --> 01:17:04,559 Speaker 1: have to keep it on my because I can't even 1305 01:17:04,600 --> 01:17:07,720 Speaker 1: tell you if it If it's around, I'll be like, oh, like, 1306 01:17:08,640 --> 01:17:11,120 Speaker 1: obviously you should put in a tell on like rich 1307 01:17:11,200 --> 01:17:13,000 Speaker 1: crackers or something. I mean I used to eat those 1308 01:17:13,040 --> 01:17:15,120 Speaker 1: things before I had tulliac disease. But yeah, I'll just 1309 01:17:15,120 --> 01:17:17,200 Speaker 1: put it on anything. I once dated a girl who 1310 01:17:17,240 --> 01:17:19,040 Speaker 1: hated to tell. I broke up with her twenty four 1311 01:17:19,080 --> 01:17:21,880 Speaker 1: hours later. I think that's a smart move. I mean this. 1312 01:17:22,360 --> 01:17:25,680 Speaker 1: You know you can't be dealing with something like that. Mike. 1313 01:17:26,240 --> 01:17:28,400 Speaker 1: I'm glad you got yourself out of that unacceptable. I 1314 01:17:28,400 --> 01:17:31,000 Speaker 1: clearly have my priorities straight. You sent it, sent you 1315 01:17:31,040 --> 01:17:33,240 Speaker 1: sent any one eight hundred flowers sent Amy Today producer 1316 01:17:33,280 --> 01:17:38,760 Speaker 1: Mike uh the mom got Sherry's berries. Okay, but uh 1317 01:17:38,960 --> 01:17:41,080 Speaker 1: I went in her flowers. Huh. I see how it is. 1318 01:17:41,320 --> 01:17:43,960 Speaker 1: Miss Molly got one eight hundred flowers. It's all that 1319 01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:46,280 Speaker 1: really matters, all right. I'm sure she liked her Sherry's 1320 01:17:46,280 --> 01:17:50,639 Speaker 1: berries though, Dude, anything on Valentine's Day is nice, So yeah, 1321 01:17:50,720 --> 01:17:52,639 Speaker 1: to tell is delicious. I've put it on weird things. 1322 01:17:53,200 --> 01:17:55,479 Speaker 1: I maybe even have put it on I'm trying to 1323 01:17:55,479 --> 01:17:58,080 Speaker 1: think of the strangest thing. It probably made its way 1324 01:17:58,080 --> 01:18:00,519 Speaker 1: onto a luncheon meet at some point, which it's really 1325 01:18:00,520 --> 01:18:03,160 Speaker 1: the that's the out Yeah, John is shaking his head. 1326 01:18:03,320 --> 01:18:05,600 Speaker 1: That's the outer reaches of what you should put in 1327 01:18:05,640 --> 01:18:07,320 Speaker 1: the tele on. When you're putting the tele on, Ham, 1328 01:18:08,200 --> 01:18:11,439 Speaker 1: you've probably got a problem. But so anyway, this sorry 1329 01:18:11,439 --> 01:18:13,240 Speaker 1: back to the story, which is the important part of 1330 01:18:13,240 --> 01:18:16,519 Speaker 1: all this. Teaching French and Italian New York City high schools, 1331 01:18:16,560 --> 01:18:19,120 Speaker 1: I finally figured out why this was Again this is 1332 01:18:19,160 --> 01:18:23,519 Speaker 1: in the words of Mary Hudson, because the reason was 1333 01:18:23,560 --> 01:18:27,200 Speaker 1: so antithetical to the prevailing mindset. I worked at three 1334 01:18:27,400 --> 01:18:30,200 Speaker 1: very different high schools over the years, spanning a fairly 1335 01:18:30,240 --> 01:18:33,880 Speaker 1: representative sample. That was a while ago, but the system 1336 01:18:33,920 --> 01:18:37,080 Speaker 1: has not improved since as the fundamental problem has not 1337 01:18:37,160 --> 01:18:40,160 Speaker 1: been acknowledged, let alone addressed, it would not be hard 1338 01:18:40,280 --> 01:18:43,439 Speaker 1: or expensive to fix. And then she goes into some 1339 01:18:43,600 --> 01:18:47,439 Speaker 1: details here and well, here, here's some of it. The 1340 01:18:47,479 --> 01:18:50,439 Speaker 1: next three years were a nightmare. School always teetered on 1341 01:18:50,479 --> 01:18:54,680 Speaker 1: the verge of chaos. The previous principle had just been dismissed, 1342 01:18:55,360 --> 01:18:57,519 Speaker 1: although it was never stated, all that was expected of 1343 01:18:57,520 --> 01:18:59,680 Speaker 1: teachers was to keep students in their seats and the 1344 01:18:59,760 --> 01:19:03,400 Speaker 1: vaulvolume down. This was an enormous school on five floors, 1345 01:19:03,560 --> 01:19:08,200 Speaker 1: with students court and off into separate programs, And she 1346 01:19:08,240 --> 01:19:10,519 Speaker 1: just goes in. As the week's tracked painfully into months, 1347 01:19:10,520 --> 01:19:14,640 Speaker 1: it became apparent the students wouldn't learn anything. It was dumbfounding. 1348 01:19:14,960 --> 01:19:16,879 Speaker 1: It was all I could do to keep them quiet, 1349 01:19:17,240 --> 01:19:21,240 Speaker 1: that is, seated and talking amongst themselves. Sometimes I had 1350 01:19:21,240 --> 01:19:24,160 Speaker 1: to stop girls from grooming themselves or each other. A 1351 01:19:24,200 --> 01:19:27,160 Speaker 1: few brave souls try to keep up with instruction. Are 1352 01:19:27,200 --> 01:19:29,919 Speaker 1: particularly good. History teacher once told me that she interrupted 1353 01:19:29,920 --> 01:19:33,200 Speaker 1: a conversation between two girls asking them to pay attention 1354 01:19:33,240 --> 01:19:35,280 Speaker 1: to the lesson. One of them looked up at her, 1355 01:19:35,280 --> 01:19:38,640 Speaker 1: scornfully and sneered. I don't talk to teachers, turning her 1356 01:19:38,680 --> 01:19:43,720 Speaker 1: back to resume their chat, and it goes on and 1357 01:19:44,000 --> 01:19:50,240 Speaker 1: on and on. This is a declaration from a seasoned 1358 01:19:50,280 --> 01:19:52,960 Speaker 1: teacher in the New York City school system. She went 1359 01:19:52,960 --> 01:19:58,200 Speaker 1: to various public schools here, and this is a declaration 1360 01:19:58,439 --> 01:20:03,200 Speaker 1: of how these students that she was supposed to be 1361 01:20:03,240 --> 01:20:12,560 Speaker 1: teaching were completely and utterly disrespectful to authority, suffered no consequences, 1362 01:20:13,040 --> 01:20:19,320 Speaker 1: and did not care. I you know, you won't see 1363 01:20:19,400 --> 01:20:24,880 Speaker 1: people talking about this. It's so much more fashionable to 1364 01:20:25,000 --> 01:20:27,479 Speaker 1: say that the problem is that there's not enough funding. 1365 01:20:28,040 --> 01:20:31,360 Speaker 1: The problem is that the teachers need more, the teachers 1366 01:20:31,400 --> 01:20:33,840 Speaker 1: need smaller class eyes. As you hear all this stuff 1367 01:20:33,880 --> 01:20:38,720 Speaker 1: all the time, why do some of these schools have 1368 01:20:38,880 --> 01:20:42,479 Speaker 1: such atrocious I mean, she talks about how people are 1369 01:20:42,520 --> 01:20:45,000 Speaker 1: graduating with what she would would she would honestly claim 1370 01:20:45,040 --> 01:20:46,960 Speaker 1: to be a fifth grade reading level. They're graduating from 1371 01:20:47,040 --> 01:20:51,240 Speaker 1: high school regularly and people also then at the other 1372 01:20:51,320 --> 01:20:53,439 Speaker 1: end of this will say we need to make college 1373 01:20:53,439 --> 01:20:56,599 Speaker 1: free for everybody. So now you're going to have everybody 1374 01:20:57,040 --> 01:20:59,040 Speaker 1: making the decision they need to take four years in 1375 01:20:59,560 --> 01:21:02,599 Speaker 1: getting an undergraduate degree, which is going to mean that 1376 01:21:02,640 --> 01:21:05,599 Speaker 1: if everyone can do that because it's free, You're gonna 1377 01:21:05,600 --> 01:21:07,120 Speaker 1: have a lot of people going to college with fifth 1378 01:21:07,160 --> 01:21:09,559 Speaker 1: grade reading levels. Does anyone think that really benefits those 1379 01:21:09,560 --> 01:21:12,880 Speaker 1: people who are going to college? Would they be better 1380 01:21:12,920 --> 01:21:16,439 Speaker 1: off learning a trade or skill? Is an interesting when 1381 01:21:16,439 --> 01:21:17,960 Speaker 1: you say that, even as I say it, I realize 1382 01:21:17,960 --> 01:21:20,960 Speaker 1: people would sneer at that. They would sneer at How 1383 01:21:21,040 --> 01:21:25,000 Speaker 1: dare you say that people should what learned to provide 1384 01:21:25,240 --> 01:21:28,000 Speaker 1: provide a professional service that people need, that they'd be 1385 01:21:28,040 --> 01:21:31,000 Speaker 1: well compensated for, and that they could have career growth 1386 01:21:31,000 --> 01:21:33,360 Speaker 1: in and go back to school. No one saying that 1387 01:21:33,400 --> 01:21:37,760 Speaker 1: if you were to become some kind of technician, some 1388 01:21:37,880 --> 01:21:42,280 Speaker 1: kind of skilled tradesmen, whether you're whether you're talking about 1389 01:21:42,280 --> 01:21:44,960 Speaker 1: being a welder or just getting a job for a 1390 01:21:45,000 --> 01:21:46,760 Speaker 1: few years to make some money and then go no 1391 01:21:46,800 --> 01:21:50,360 Speaker 1: one says he can't go back to school. People just 1392 01:21:50,360 --> 01:21:52,960 Speaker 1: don't want to speak the truth about this though, that 1393 01:21:53,200 --> 01:21:56,360 Speaker 1: we have much more fundamental problems in the educational system 1394 01:21:56,400 --> 01:22:00,280 Speaker 1: in this country than small class size or the need 1395 01:22:00,280 --> 01:22:02,360 Speaker 1: for small class size and the need for more funding. 1396 01:22:02,680 --> 01:22:06,000 Speaker 1: We spend an incredible amount of money on public education 1397 01:22:06,520 --> 01:22:09,960 Speaker 1: in this country, but this whole piece public education, dirty 1398 01:22:10,000 --> 01:22:14,040 Speaker 1: little secret is just about how you have all these kids, 1399 01:22:14,040 --> 01:22:16,160 Speaker 1: And she says it's really at the high school age 1400 01:22:16,200 --> 01:22:20,120 Speaker 1: is where it manifests itself. All these kids who don't 1401 01:22:20,160 --> 01:22:23,120 Speaker 1: want to listen, know that there were no consequences for 1402 01:22:23,160 --> 01:22:29,080 Speaker 1: not listening, are openly disrespectful to teachers, have no inclination 1403 01:22:29,160 --> 01:22:32,960 Speaker 1: whatsoever to study or to learn. But also, and I 1404 01:22:32,960 --> 01:22:35,080 Speaker 1: thought this is really interesting, all believe that they should 1405 01:22:35,120 --> 01:22:38,720 Speaker 1: be able to go to college. So they won't study, 1406 01:22:38,760 --> 01:22:41,599 Speaker 1: they won't be quiet, but they think that they'll somehow 1407 01:22:41,680 --> 01:22:43,880 Speaker 1: just be pushed, That they'll be pushed because they've been 1408 01:22:43,880 --> 01:22:46,479 Speaker 1: pushed through the system so far, that they will be 1409 01:22:46,800 --> 01:22:51,640 Speaker 1: pushed through into college as well. That essentially the educational 1410 01:22:51,720 --> 01:22:58,480 Speaker 1: system exists to cater to them, exists to paper over 1411 01:22:58,560 --> 01:23:03,559 Speaker 1: their indifference there ineptitude as they get older. Right, it's 1412 01:23:03,600 --> 01:23:05,800 Speaker 1: not a good thing to be an eighteen year old 1413 01:23:05,840 --> 01:23:07,800 Speaker 1: who reads at the level of a twelve year old. 1414 01:23:08,000 --> 01:23:11,559 Speaker 1: And these are based on statewide or national standards. No 1415 01:23:11,600 --> 01:23:13,760 Speaker 1: one ever talks about education this way. I mean, I 1416 01:23:13,920 --> 01:23:18,040 Speaker 1: know this. I remember my college girlfriend, well, one of 1417 01:23:18,400 --> 01:23:20,920 Speaker 1: two college girlfriends, but that's more information than he needs 1418 01:23:20,920 --> 01:23:23,320 Speaker 1: to know. One of my college girlfriends went into the 1419 01:23:23,360 --> 01:23:26,760 Speaker 1: Teach for America program, and this woman, Mary Hudson, talks 1420 01:23:26,760 --> 01:23:28,559 Speaker 1: about Teach for America and she says, these kids show 1421 01:23:28,640 --> 01:23:30,960 Speaker 1: up from Teach for America that are twenty three, and 1422 01:23:31,000 --> 01:23:33,720 Speaker 1: they've all been so programmed by Teach for America but 1423 01:23:33,800 --> 01:23:37,840 Speaker 1: also the universities that they're these little social justice advocates, 1424 01:23:38,400 --> 01:23:41,919 Speaker 1: and they always feel like they're the ones failing the kids. Meanwhile, 1425 01:23:41,960 --> 01:23:44,439 Speaker 1: an adult with a real educational background looks at them 1426 01:23:44,439 --> 01:23:48,400 Speaker 1: and says, no, these kids are acting like disrespectful punks, 1427 01:23:48,439 --> 01:23:51,000 Speaker 1: and you can't teach people who are disrespectful punks and 1428 01:23:51,080 --> 01:23:53,720 Speaker 1: don't care and believe the systems should cater to them 1429 01:23:53,880 --> 01:23:57,280 Speaker 1: and the systems should make everything go away. Mike A, 1430 01:23:57,400 --> 01:23:59,720 Speaker 1: this is an article about reality. My friend, you know 1431 01:23:59,760 --> 01:24:03,920 Speaker 1: who teach them? Their parents?

It's amazing to 1464 01:26:00,880 --> 01:26:06,280 Speaker 1: watch somebody who is as as ignorant and foolish as 1465 01:26:06,280 --> 01:26:10,720 Speaker 1: ilhan Omar try to go after someone of whether you 1466 01:26:10,760 --> 01:26:13,280 Speaker 1: like him or not, or like his record or not. 1467 01:26:13,439 --> 01:26:18,880 Speaker 1: As a long time and very senior member of the 1468 01:26:18,920 --> 01:26:24,120 Speaker 1: Diplomatic Corps, Elliot Abrams there, the US Envoy to Venezuela. 1469 01:26:24,320 --> 01:26:26,679 Speaker 1: You know, you have the the House Foreign Affairs Committee, 1470 01:26:26,720 --> 01:26:31,240 Speaker 1: which ilhan Omar sits on, much to the shock and 1471 01:26:31,400 --> 01:26:36,640 Speaker 1: displeasure of people who are not completely insane, deciding to 1472 01:26:36,720 --> 01:26:40,080 Speaker 1: grill Abrams here and trying to score some cheap political 1473 01:26:40,120 --> 01:26:44,240 Speaker 1: points by talking about massacre and El Salvador that occurred 1474 01:26:44,720 --> 01:26:47,519 Speaker 1: decades ago, and you know, leaves out of course the 1475 01:26:47,600 --> 01:26:52,400 Speaker 1: context about how he didn't want communism taking root in 1476 01:26:52,439 --> 01:26:57,320 Speaker 1: Central America. Communism took root in Cuba and it has 1477 01:26:57,360 --> 01:26:59,840 Speaker 1: been a problem for US ever since, in fact is 1478 01:26:59,840 --> 01:27:03,559 Speaker 1: a problem to this day. So while we can certainly 1479 01:27:03,600 --> 01:27:06,720 Speaker 1: have a robust and serious discussion about the merits of 1480 01:27:06,760 --> 01:27:11,400 Speaker 1: anti communist policy, particularly during the Reagan and HW Bush years. 1481 01:27:11,400 --> 01:27:15,040 Speaker 1: And you know, we could have that talk. But that 1482 01:27:15,080 --> 01:27:18,120 Speaker 1: does not mean that it's okay to say is the 1483 01:27:18,160 --> 01:27:21,040 Speaker 1: massacre good? I mean, she's just trolling him. This is 1484 01:27:21,120 --> 01:27:23,360 Speaker 1: all this is. I mean, this is how people now 1485 01:27:23,800 --> 01:27:27,360 Speaker 1: on the left get elected a higher office. They just 1486 01:27:27,479 --> 01:27:33,440 Speaker 1: try to slam and shame conservatives whenever they have an opportunity. 1487 01:27:33,479 --> 01:27:35,800 Speaker 1: And I just think it's interesting that the left has 1488 01:27:35,840 --> 01:27:39,320 Speaker 1: taken a position on this. And I've seen this. I've 1489 01:27:39,320 --> 01:27:41,200 Speaker 1: even had a couple of Twitter exchanges with people that 1490 01:27:41,360 --> 01:27:44,000 Speaker 1: on some issues are reasonably intelligent, but on this issue 1491 01:27:44,000 --> 01:27:47,640 Speaker 1: they're they're just idiots where they're accusing the US of 1492 01:27:47,720 --> 01:27:50,800 Speaker 1: fomenting a coup in Venezuela. And let me say that 1493 01:27:51,080 --> 01:27:56,520 Speaker 1: it is not possible for us to do much realistically 1494 01:27:56,560 --> 01:28:00,280 Speaker 1: in Venezuela that would make anything worse than it already is. 1495 01:28:01,400 --> 01:28:03,280 Speaker 1: This is really bad. Now. That doesn't mean we should 1496 01:28:03,280 --> 01:28:05,559 Speaker 1: send in troops. And there are obviously our limitations to this. 1497 01:28:05,600 --> 01:28:10,160 Speaker 1: But in terms of upsetting the apple cart, people are starving, 1498 01:28:10,600 --> 01:28:14,400 Speaker 1: people are losing twenty or thirty pounds because they don't 1499 01:28:14,439 --> 01:28:19,880 Speaker 1: have access to food. Inflation is ten million percent or something. 1500 01:28:19,920 --> 01:28:24,320 Speaker 1: I mean, it's completely out of control. The country is collapsing, 1501 01:28:24,400 --> 01:28:29,320 Speaker 1: it's in free fall, and the left takes this approach. 1502 01:28:29,360 --> 01:28:34,160 Speaker 1: Of the problem here is that America is supporting Guido 1503 01:28:35,400 --> 01:28:38,160 Speaker 1: instead of Maduro. The problem here is that the duly 1504 01:28:38,200 --> 01:28:44,160 Speaker 1: elected speaker of the parliament there is saying that he's 1505 01:28:44,200 --> 01:28:46,599 Speaker 1: the rightful because the last election was marved with for all, 1506 01:28:46,640 --> 01:28:49,120 Speaker 1: that he's the rightful president. You know, it's not like 1507 01:28:49,160 --> 01:28:51,360 Speaker 1: we trotted in and look, we've done this before, right, 1508 01:28:51,400 --> 01:28:53,840 Speaker 1: we picked somebody who's in exile. It's not like we 1509 01:28:53,960 --> 01:28:57,599 Speaker 1: trotted in some individual that no one has ever heard 1510 01:28:57,600 --> 01:29:01,280 Speaker 1: of in that country, and no what has happened here. 1511 01:29:02,040 --> 01:29:04,759 Speaker 1: You just we finally have said, look, we're not gonna 1512 01:29:04,880 --> 01:29:06,680 Speaker 1: be a part of We're not gonna be a part 1513 01:29:06,720 --> 01:29:11,880 Speaker 1: of this Maduro dumpster fire situation. We are going to 1514 01:29:11,960 --> 01:29:16,639 Speaker 1: give diplomatic support to Guido in Venezuela and the left 1515 01:29:16,920 --> 01:29:19,960 Speaker 1: when you have people who are impoverished in Venezuela, who 1516 01:29:19,960 --> 01:29:24,040 Speaker 1: are starving in Venezuela, the country is a disaster. It 1517 01:29:24,160 --> 01:29:30,439 Speaker 1: is now a failed state. It has effectively narco state government. 1518 01:29:30,760 --> 01:29:33,240 Speaker 1: You have some of the top figures in the Venezuelan 1519 01:29:33,240 --> 01:29:37,840 Speaker 1: government are sanctioned for being narco traffickers. You know, you 1520 01:29:37,880 --> 01:29:40,160 Speaker 1: just got on the litter. You've got thirty thousand some 1521 01:29:40,200 --> 01:29:41,880 Speaker 1: odd murders I think a year there. I mean, the 1522 01:29:41,960 --> 01:29:46,240 Speaker 1: murder rate is sky high. There's no rule of law 1523 01:29:46,240 --> 01:29:49,000 Speaker 1: to speak of. There's no bread on the shelves, no 1524 01:29:49,120 --> 01:29:52,280 Speaker 1: milk in the in this store. And the problem that 1525 01:29:52,320 --> 01:29:55,560 Speaker 1: ilhan Omar and others have with this is that America 1526 01:29:55,680 --> 01:29:59,400 Speaker 1: is meddling. I can understand. You don't meddle in places 1527 01:29:59,400 --> 01:30:02,200 Speaker 1: where you know, we don't have an interest or we 1528 01:30:02,240 --> 01:30:05,599 Speaker 1: don't care, or where maybe you know, the people should 1529 01:30:05,600 --> 01:30:08,240 Speaker 1: be allowed to determine their own fate. All we're doing 1530 01:30:08,320 --> 01:30:12,240 Speaker 1: is saying our American presence there, our diplomatic presidence, is 1531 01:30:12,280 --> 01:30:14,200 Speaker 1: going to be interfacing with this guy, not this guy. 1532 01:30:14,880 --> 01:30:17,640 Speaker 1: And we're joining with all of the decent countries of 1533 01:30:17,640 --> 01:30:23,160 Speaker 1: the Western hemisphere to say that we're not going to 1534 01:30:23,160 --> 01:30:25,800 Speaker 1: play games anymore with this guy Maduro. We want to 1535 01:30:25,800 --> 01:30:31,320 Speaker 1: be involved with Guido and ilhan Omar and these extreme 1536 01:30:31,479 --> 01:30:34,280 Speaker 1: leftist types. See they just view this as an opportunity 1537 01:30:34,320 --> 01:30:38,880 Speaker 1: to try to trash Trump foreign policy. They don't really 1538 01:30:38,920 --> 01:30:41,560 Speaker 1: care about the suffering of people in a place like Venezuela, 1539 01:30:41,600 --> 01:30:44,400 Speaker 1: which I think is so interesting here. If they cared 1540 01:30:44,400 --> 01:30:46,680 Speaker 1: about the suffering of the Venezuelan people, wouldn't they be 1541 01:30:46,720 --> 01:30:52,080 Speaker 1: in favor of the US supporting a Venezuelan leader who 1542 01:30:52,160 --> 01:30:56,479 Speaker 1: is duly elected, who based on the Venezuelan constitution and 1543 01:30:56,600 --> 01:30:59,320 Speaker 1: on everyone's understanding of what happened in the last election there, 1544 01:30:59,360 --> 01:31:03,519 Speaker 1: sham elect that Maduro Ran is the president is the 1545 01:31:03,520 --> 01:31:05,840 Speaker 1: president event as well, we're not imposing somebody, we're not. 1546 01:31:06,200 --> 01:31:08,080 Speaker 1: And if people say that we're engaged in a coup, 1547 01:31:08,800 --> 01:31:11,080 Speaker 1: wouldn't we be engaged in a coup if we supported 1548 01:31:11,120 --> 01:31:13,920 Speaker 1: a dictator who's broken the law there in continuing to 1549 01:31:13,920 --> 01:31:16,360 Speaker 1: be in office. See, this is where foreign policy can 1550 01:31:16,360 --> 01:31:20,000 Speaker 1: get a little complicated. Just status quo is not the 1551 01:31:20,040 --> 01:31:25,280 Speaker 1: same as non intervention. Status quo can actually be being 1552 01:31:25,280 --> 01:31:28,280 Speaker 1: a part of the of the problem. Right if you 1553 01:31:28,880 --> 01:31:31,640 Speaker 1: are are support Let's say we have diplomatic relations with 1554 01:31:31,680 --> 01:31:35,120 Speaker 1: a country and then all of a sudden, the leadership 1555 01:31:35,120 --> 01:31:37,960 Speaker 1: in that country decides that they're not going to recognize 1556 01:31:38,000 --> 01:31:42,479 Speaker 1: new elections that just happened, and we say, sorry, you know, 1557 01:31:42,479 --> 01:31:45,200 Speaker 1: there's actually a government now that's that's supposed to supplant 1558 01:31:45,240 --> 01:31:47,160 Speaker 1: you or supposed to replace you. We're going to work 1559 01:31:47,200 --> 01:31:51,479 Speaker 1: with them. Are we engaged in a coup? You got 1560 01:31:51,600 --> 01:31:54,120 Speaker 1: to you gotta pick sides here. There's there's no standing 1561 01:31:54,120 --> 01:31:56,320 Speaker 1: on the silence. But Ilhan Omar doesn't think about any 1562 01:31:56,360 --> 01:31:59,839 Speaker 1: of that. Ilan Omar just likes to make foolish comments 1563 01:32:00,000 --> 01:32:02,680 Speaker 1: about how Elliot Abrams is responsible for a massacre in 1564 01:32:02,760 --> 01:32:08,000 Speaker 1: El Salvador decades ago, because she's really trying to take 1565 01:32:08,479 --> 01:32:10,840 Speaker 1: pot shots at the guy, and this is how she 1566 01:32:10,920 --> 01:32:13,080 Speaker 1: gets her base excited. And this is how the left 1567 01:32:13,080 --> 01:32:17,120 Speaker 1: wing views people like Elliot Abrams who are trying to 1568 01:32:17,320 --> 01:32:21,240 Speaker 1: make things better for the people of Venezuela. This is 1569 01:32:21,240 --> 01:32:23,040 Speaker 1: why a lot of the posturing you see on the 1570 01:32:23,080 --> 01:32:24,559 Speaker 1: left it bothers me. A lot of the posturing you 1571 01:32:24,600 --> 01:32:30,240 Speaker 1: see on the left is hollow. You know. Oh, they 1572 01:32:30,240 --> 01:32:32,640 Speaker 1: care so much about people who are impoverished and who 1573 01:32:32,680 --> 01:32:36,320 Speaker 1: are oppressed, and they care so much about the third world. Well, really, 1574 01:32:36,360 --> 01:32:39,719 Speaker 1: what they care about is how does playing to people's 1575 01:32:39,720 --> 01:32:42,960 Speaker 1: emotions affect their ability to be in power, to have 1576 01:32:43,040 --> 01:32:46,880 Speaker 1: authority over other Americans and to get their way. That 1577 01:32:47,000 --> 01:32:50,920 Speaker 1: seems to be the single most important thing for a 1578 01:32:50,920 --> 01:32:53,080 Speaker 1: lot of these leftists, people like Ilhano more that that 1579 01:32:53,160 --> 01:32:55,679 Speaker 1: talk the like they speak the language of social justice, 1580 01:32:56,840 --> 01:33:01,600 Speaker 1: but they don't really care about justice, care about sounding 1581 01:33:01,640 --> 01:33:04,679 Speaker 1: like somebody who wants to make a difference in these areas. 1582 01:33:04,680 --> 01:33:07,120 Speaker 1: But really, when there are people who are oppressed, if 1583 01:33:07,120 --> 01:33:09,479 Speaker 1: it doesn't add up in a way that benefits them politically, 1584 01:33:09,520 --> 01:33:14,840 Speaker 1: they're done with it. They don't care anyone shows that 1585 01:33:16,080 --> 01:33:22,200 Speaker 1: everyday Americans still have the power to organize, fight for 1586 01:33:22,240 --> 01:33:26,280 Speaker 1: their communities and they can have more saying this, even 1587 01:33:26,400 --> 01:33:29,400 Speaker 1: the this man in the world, Yeah, she thinks it's incredible. 1588 01:33:29,400 --> 01:33:35,439 Speaker 1: All right, AOC happy that Amazon is not in fact 1589 01:33:35,600 --> 01:33:39,080 Speaker 1: going to build its New York City headquarters. I am 1590 01:33:39,120 --> 01:33:40,800 Speaker 1: here in New York City right now. I can tell 1591 01:33:40,840 --> 01:33:43,120 Speaker 1: you that I'm sure there are some people in the 1592 01:33:43,240 --> 01:33:47,320 Speaker 1: Long Island City section of Queens who are not going 1593 01:33:47,360 --> 01:33:50,240 Speaker 1: to be thrilled about what this might do to their 1594 01:33:50,600 --> 01:33:54,080 Speaker 1: real estate value. But Amazon has said that after much 1595 01:33:54,080 --> 01:33:56,599 Speaker 1: thought and deliberation, we've decided not to move forward with 1596 01:33:56,640 --> 01:33:59,639 Speaker 1: our plans to build a headquarters for Amazon and Long 1597 01:33:59,680 --> 01:34:02,920 Speaker 1: Island City. That was according to a spokeswoman from Amazon. 1598 01:34:03,000 --> 01:34:09,360 Speaker 1: Today turns out that seventy percent John seventy percent of 1599 01:34:09,800 --> 01:34:13,920 Speaker 1: New Yorkers polled support Amazon coming to New York with 1600 01:34:14,120 --> 01:34:16,400 Speaker 1: the twenty five thousand jobs that it would bring with 1601 01:34:16,479 --> 01:34:19,519 Speaker 1: the campus, the headquarters, the restaurants and support systems that 1602 01:34:19,560 --> 01:34:23,120 Speaker 1: would probably pop up right next to the campus. But 1603 01:34:23,479 --> 01:34:27,200 Speaker 1: you had local politicians, that's right, the very left wing, 1604 01:34:27,680 --> 01:34:31,519 Speaker 1: very progressive types who proliferate here in New York City. 1605 01:34:31,560 --> 01:34:33,720 Speaker 1: They thought that it was not okay to give one 1606 01:34:33,720 --> 01:34:38,920 Speaker 1: of the world's most valuable companies billions of dollars in 1607 01:34:39,640 --> 01:34:42,160 Speaker 1: tax incentives. According to the Wall Street Journal here, that's 1608 01:34:42,160 --> 01:34:47,120 Speaker 1: the main reason. So this is quite a reversal because 1609 01:34:47,600 --> 01:34:51,120 Speaker 1: there had been a long search for Amazon to find this. 1610 01:34:51,120 --> 01:34:55,439 Speaker 1: This is gonna be its second headquarters and actually, I'm 1611 01:34:55,439 --> 01:34:58,000 Speaker 1: sorry it says fifty thousand jobs was another estimate here, 1612 01:34:58,040 --> 01:35:04,160 Speaker 1: five billion dollars in investment, and instead it's going to 1613 01:35:04,200 --> 01:35:09,439 Speaker 1: go forward within Nashville and Virginia, Northern Virginia, which depending 1614 01:35:09,439 --> 01:35:11,479 Speaker 1: on where you are, I find Northern Virginia to be 1615 01:35:11,520 --> 01:35:15,719 Speaker 1: a pretty uninspiring place. But this just goes to show 1616 01:35:15,760 --> 01:35:20,519 Speaker 1: you that, you know, the progressive mentality here in New 1617 01:35:20,600 --> 01:35:24,840 Speaker 1: York City is powerful enough that even Amazon can't break 1618 01:35:24,880 --> 01:35:27,759 Speaker 1: through it that's Hey, we're gonna hire a lot of people. 1619 01:35:27,960 --> 01:35:31,960 Speaker 1: We're gonna hire a whole lot of folks. And that 1620 01:35:32,080 --> 01:35:34,840 Speaker 1: wasn't good enough because of the tax breaks they're going 1621 01:35:34,920 --> 01:35:37,040 Speaker 1: to move here. You know, I'm a little bit of 1622 01:35:37,040 --> 01:35:39,559 Speaker 1: two minds, two minds about this because on the one hand, 1623 01:35:40,280 --> 01:35:43,960 Speaker 1: it does seem strange that a company should have to 1624 01:35:44,000 --> 01:35:47,560 Speaker 1: be wooed to set up in a state via tax breaks. 1625 01:35:47,600 --> 01:35:51,840 Speaker 1: That is cronyism. On the other hand, doesn't New York 1626 01:35:52,240 --> 01:35:54,439 Speaker 1: want to have Amazon here? Doesn't New York City want 1627 01:35:54,479 --> 01:35:59,599 Speaker 1: that to be part of the jobs in financial ecosystem here? 1628 01:35:59,640 --> 01:36:03,120 Speaker 1: So we'll see. But Amazon is not going to be 1629 01:36:03,200 --> 01:36:05,519 Speaker 1: getting built here. And the progressives view this as some 1630 01:36:05,680 --> 01:36:09,439 Speaker 1: kind of a win. And you had like Councilman Jimmy 1631 01:36:09,560 --> 01:36:13,320 Speaker 1: Van Bramer say, quote, Amazon refused to change and accept 1632 01:36:13,439 --> 01:36:17,880 Speaker 1: New York values, And yeah, Kazio Cortez view this as 1633 01:36:17,920 --> 01:36:19,920 Speaker 1: a as a huge victory. Oh you know what this 1634 01:36:19,960 --> 01:36:22,559 Speaker 1: really comes down to, folks, now that I see this 1635 01:36:22,640 --> 01:36:28,040 Speaker 1: in this piece, anti union? Amazon is anti union. That 1636 01:36:28,040 --> 01:36:30,880 Speaker 1: that was a You see, anytime you're anti union, you're 1637 01:36:30,880 --> 01:36:34,719 Speaker 1: going to run into the Democrat machinery in a buzz 1638 01:36:34,760 --> 01:36:38,200 Speaker 1: saw like fashion and that was a that was a 1639 01:36:38,200 --> 01:36:41,559 Speaker 1: big problem. I left that out of the conversation up 1640 01:36:41,560 --> 01:36:45,320 Speaker 1: to this point. But you have Amazon executives who had 1641 01:36:45,360 --> 01:36:48,800 Speaker 1: to sit there and get grilled about how much they're paid. 1642 01:36:49,320 --> 01:36:52,479 Speaker 1: And then also the fact that Amazon is not good 1643 01:36:52,520 --> 01:36:55,439 Speaker 1: when it comes to dealing with with unions, meaning that 1644 01:36:55,479 --> 01:36:59,559 Speaker 1: they don't cave to union demands. And yeah, that's that's 1645 01:36:59,560 --> 01:37:01,439 Speaker 1: why the because if you want to get elected in 1646 01:37:01,439 --> 01:37:04,400 Speaker 1: a place like New York City, you have to essentially 1647 01:37:04,439 --> 01:37:06,000 Speaker 1: you have to play ball with the unions. You have 1648 01:37:06,040 --> 01:37:08,160 Speaker 1: to do what they want you to do. You have 1649 01:37:08,200 --> 01:37:11,360 Speaker 1: to support the policies they want you to support. So 1650 01:37:11,600 --> 01:37:14,920 Speaker 1: I'm not surprised given that they went on they went 1651 01:37:14,960 --> 01:37:17,760 Speaker 1: on an anti union well, they went on the anti 1652 01:37:17,840 --> 01:37:19,839 Speaker 1: union list that was going to be enough to essentially 1653 01:37:20,400 --> 01:37:24,599 Speaker 1: knock them out of being warmly received in New York City. 1654 01:37:24,680 --> 01:37:26,719 Speaker 1: I am a little surprised that they managed. They managed 1655 01:37:26,720 --> 01:37:29,599 Speaker 1: to do this and then then Amazon pulled it after 1656 01:37:29,640 --> 01:37:32,120 Speaker 1: the fact. I figured they would have gotten this done beforehand, 1657 01:37:32,160 --> 01:37:36,160 Speaker 1: but but no, it seems like turns out Amazon just 1658 01:37:36,240 --> 01:37:38,400 Speaker 1: couldn't take the heat and decided to get out of 1659 01:37:38,439 --> 01:37:43,360 Speaker 1: New York's kitchen. Like soft butter on warm toast. Time 1660 01:37:43,400 --> 01:37:55,000 Speaker 1: to spread some freedom coast to coast. It's time for 1661 01:37:55,120 --> 01:37:58,800 Speaker 1: roll call. Indeed, roll call time. Before I get into 1662 01:37:58,840 --> 01:38:02,120 Speaker 1: it today though, let me say that today is just 1663 01:38:02,160 --> 01:38:05,360 Speaker 1: kind of a kind of a tough day, not the 1664 01:38:05,360 --> 01:38:06,840 Speaker 1: most fun day I've had in a while. I had 1665 01:38:06,840 --> 01:38:09,880 Speaker 1: to deal with some business issues and Miss Molly had 1666 01:38:09,920 --> 01:38:14,720 Speaker 1: a family emergency, so I am solo on Valentine's Day, 1667 01:38:14,720 --> 01:38:16,960 Speaker 1: which we were not anticipating, but she had a true 1668 01:38:16,960 --> 01:38:20,600 Speaker 1: family emergency she had to deal with. So that you 1669 01:38:20,640 --> 01:38:22,880 Speaker 1: know the day, the day wasn't going wasn't going great, 1670 01:38:23,000 --> 01:38:25,679 Speaker 1: I could put it that way. But I was walking 1671 01:38:25,720 --> 01:38:27,479 Speaker 1: through I went to visit a friend of mine over 1672 01:38:27,960 --> 01:38:32,840 Speaker 1: who works over at the thirty Rock building here in 1673 01:38:32,840 --> 01:38:35,559 Speaker 1: New York City, and I was walking through the lobby 1674 01:38:35,600 --> 01:38:39,920 Speaker 1: there and a young gentleman named Raheem with a few 1675 01:38:39,920 --> 01:38:41,559 Speaker 1: of his friends were walking past, and I had my 1676 01:38:41,560 --> 01:38:45,559 Speaker 1: earbuds in. I actually was listening to UM listening to 1677 01:38:45,720 --> 01:38:49,160 Speaker 1: a call at the time, and a guy rahim waves 1678 01:38:49,160 --> 01:38:51,640 Speaker 1: the unit says you buck Sexton. I'm like, as a 1679 01:38:51,680 --> 01:38:53,479 Speaker 1: matter of fact, I am, sir, and he goes, I 1680 01:38:53,520 --> 01:38:55,439 Speaker 1: listened to you all the time, And I said, Raheim, 1681 01:38:56,040 --> 01:38:57,800 Speaker 1: you just made my day. I'll give you a shout 1682 01:38:57,800 --> 01:38:59,880 Speaker 1: out tonight on radio, and so here we are, right 1683 01:38:59,880 --> 01:39:01,760 Speaker 1: he a shout out, man, Thank you so much for 1684 01:39:01,760 --> 01:39:04,280 Speaker 1: the high five. Always nice to see a member of 1685 01:39:04,280 --> 01:39:07,160 Speaker 1: the team out and about and really did, really did 1686 01:39:07,200 --> 01:39:08,680 Speaker 1: appreciate it. And I hope you had a good rest 1687 01:39:08,720 --> 01:39:11,840 Speaker 1: of your day with the folks you were hanging out with. 1688 01:39:11,960 --> 01:39:14,200 Speaker 1: So thank you so much and great to see you, 1689 01:39:14,320 --> 01:39:17,400 Speaker 1: my friend. All right, with that, we will do some 1690 01:39:17,840 --> 01:39:21,920 Speaker 1: roll call. I say this to you, of course, and 1691 01:39:21,920 --> 01:39:23,920 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden my Facebook freezes. All right, 1692 01:39:23,960 --> 01:39:28,479 Speaker 1: here we go, Bart, right buck. I always enjoy when 1693 01:39:28,520 --> 01:39:31,720 Speaker 1: you or your listeners recommend books, films, or music. The 1694 01:39:31,760 --> 01:39:36,439 Speaker 1: band Sabbatan is now a favorite. The Last Kingdom Season 1695 01:39:36,479 --> 01:39:38,840 Speaker 1: one was great, season two not so much. I agree 1696 01:39:38,880 --> 01:39:41,160 Speaker 1: with you, Bart when it comes to country music. I 1697 01:39:41,200 --> 01:39:43,280 Speaker 1: grew up in the South, but I still can't seem 1698 01:39:43,320 --> 01:39:45,680 Speaker 1: to get into it. However, I'm a big fan of 1699 01:39:45,720 --> 01:39:49,600 Speaker 1: southern rock. Check out the band Jive Mother Mary for 1700 01:39:49,640 --> 01:39:52,680 Speaker 1: sound that is reminiscent of CCR and SKINNERD and their 1701 01:39:52,760 --> 01:39:56,280 Speaker 1: song The Great Decline tells you what side the right 1702 01:39:56,320 --> 01:39:59,599 Speaker 1: one of the political spectrum they sit on. Because Contrary 1703 01:39:59,600 --> 01:40:01,760 Speaker 1: to what you may I thought, the music of the 1704 01:40:01,800 --> 01:40:06,120 Speaker 1: South is southern rock, not country. Well, Barret, always good 1705 01:40:06,120 --> 01:40:08,720 Speaker 1: to hear from you, my friend, and I I had 1706 01:40:08,760 --> 01:40:12,640 Speaker 1: never heard this southern rock versus country paradigm. John, are 1707 01:40:12,640 --> 01:40:14,640 Speaker 1: you familiar with this? I'm not. I don't really a 1708 01:40:14,640 --> 01:40:21,120 Speaker 1: little bit. Yeah, maybe so we'll see Andre's rights. The 1709 01:40:21,200 --> 01:40:26,479 Speaker 1: AOC joke regarding ice cream clever. The punchline nothing because 1710 01:40:26,520 --> 01:40:29,000 Speaker 1: there's nothing there to freeze. It took me four seconds 1711 01:40:29,040 --> 01:40:32,799 Speaker 1: to get it. Funny, but kind of a want wampum. 1712 01:40:33,360 --> 01:40:36,679 Speaker 1: It is definitely a want wamp So the AOC joke, 1713 01:40:36,720 --> 01:40:40,360 Speaker 1: I guess we read off from the Roll Call yesterday. 1714 01:40:40,560 --> 01:40:44,280 Speaker 1: There you have it, Harry whoa Harry. Harry has written 1715 01:40:44,360 --> 01:40:47,759 Speaker 1: quite an opus here, Harry rights. Hey Buck, I'm behind 1716 01:40:47,880 --> 01:40:50,800 Speaker 1: my essential podcast listening, so forgive me if you've moved 1717 01:40:50,800 --> 01:40:54,879 Speaker 1: on from this subject. Diversity is our strength. My medicare 1718 01:40:54,880 --> 01:40:59,920 Speaker 1: communications come with notices in fifteen different languages. Of course, 1719 01:41:00,000 --> 01:41:03,280 Speaker 1: all Americans should read and speak these languages and fluently, 1720 01:41:04,080 --> 01:41:05,400 Speaker 1: so that in their day to day lives. I can 1721 01:41:05,400 --> 01:41:07,400 Speaker 1: interact with anyone who's not taking the effort to learn 1722 01:41:07,720 --> 01:41:11,280 Speaker 1: English in America. Right do they do that in bilingual 1723 01:41:11,280 --> 01:41:15,439 Speaker 1: Canada or trilingual Switzerland, the fifteen languages thing. That is, 1724 01:41:15,840 --> 01:41:20,040 Speaker 1: when I visited France, I was so insulted that all 1725 01:41:20,080 --> 01:41:24,840 Speaker 1: the natives would not speak English that it really what 1726 01:41:24,960 --> 01:41:27,360 Speaker 1: do you say to me? When you worked overseas, you 1727 01:41:27,360 --> 01:41:29,400 Speaker 1: definitely expected anyone you met to be able to speak English, 1728 01:41:29,439 --> 01:41:31,800 Speaker 1: didn't you. It annoys me when you see containers and 1729 01:41:31,840 --> 01:41:35,240 Speaker 1: stories written in Spanish, though I do understand it when 1730 01:41:35,479 --> 01:41:38,000 Speaker 1: instructions enclosed are more than one language for products to 1731 01:41:38,040 --> 01:41:41,120 Speaker 1: be sold internationally. Borders we don't need no stinking borders 1732 01:41:41,200 --> 01:41:44,320 Speaker 1: or national identity shows, Hi, Harry, Harry was there's a 1733 01:41:44,320 --> 01:41:46,320 Speaker 1: lot like going on there, Harry. I try to get 1734 01:41:46,320 --> 01:41:48,880 Speaker 1: through that, and I think I get I think I 1735 01:41:48,920 --> 01:41:50,920 Speaker 1: get what you're putting down, and I appreciate it. So 1736 01:41:51,000 --> 01:41:58,720 Speaker 1: thank you very much for that. Charles writes, he sent 1737 01:41:58,800 --> 01:42:01,559 Speaker 1: me a link that's that's not that's not gonna be 1738 01:42:01,560 --> 01:42:05,000 Speaker 1: fun to be like x y q rs dot dot 1739 01:42:05,040 --> 01:42:07,920 Speaker 1: backslash underscore. I can't. I can't read the link off 1740 01:42:07,920 --> 01:42:11,439 Speaker 1: on it. That wouldn't make sense. Kristen White, your Beto 1741 01:42:11,479 --> 01:42:14,280 Speaker 1: impression kills me. Has anyone told you what sounds like? 1742 01:42:14,320 --> 01:42:17,720 Speaker 1: Care from Napoleon Dynamite. Yeah, because if you really listen 1743 01:42:17,760 --> 01:42:20,560 Speaker 1: to Beto, like he kind of sounds like that, like 1744 01:42:20,800 --> 01:42:22,880 Speaker 1: he's got like a little more raspy in his voice, 1745 01:42:22,920 --> 01:42:24,559 Speaker 1: Like I can't really do it, but he kind of 1746 01:42:24,560 --> 01:42:27,639 Speaker 1: does this thing like air. Well, that's what Betos sounds like, 1747 01:42:27,720 --> 01:42:32,200 Speaker 1: and it's just like it's so hip, a millennial sounding. Yeah, 1748 01:42:32,280 --> 01:42:35,519 Speaker 1: he's uh, he's not going to be president that I 1749 01:42:35,560 --> 01:42:39,040 Speaker 1: can tell you. Will he be the Democrat nominee. I 1750 01:42:39,160 --> 01:42:42,320 Speaker 1: don't know. I'd have to leave that to uh, some 1751 01:42:42,439 --> 01:42:45,519 Speaker 1: of you. Peter writes, Hey Buck, I'm not sure if 1752 01:42:45,520 --> 01:42:47,960 Speaker 1: you saw it, but the border deal includes protection for 1753 01:42:48,120 --> 01:42:52,280 Speaker 1: a butterfly sanctuary on the border, preventing a wall from 1754 01:42:52,360 --> 01:42:56,400 Speaker 1: being built there. Yep, Democrats care more about butterflies than 1755 01:42:56,479 --> 01:43:01,679 Speaker 1: American lives. Shield tie Pete up in Michigan. Yeah, Pete, 1756 01:43:01,720 --> 01:43:05,080 Speaker 1: I hopefully I've made at least some of my objections 1757 01:43:05,120 --> 01:43:08,759 Speaker 1: to this clear. But you are correct in that there's 1758 01:43:08,760 --> 01:43:12,840 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff in this in this omnibus that 1759 01:43:13,000 --> 01:43:16,479 Speaker 1: is going to get signed here, or rather the Senate 1760 01:43:16,520 --> 01:43:20,920 Speaker 1: has passed that is a problem, and Trump says he's 1761 01:43:20,920 --> 01:43:24,960 Speaker 1: going to sign it, so we'll see faith. Hey Buck, 1762 01:43:25,000 --> 01:43:27,519 Speaker 1: podcast listener here. If you're delving into country music, do 1763 01:43:27,600 --> 01:43:31,200 Speaker 1: yourself a favor and try Graham Parsons, Emmy Lua Harris. 1764 01:43:31,760 --> 01:43:36,519 Speaker 1: A good alt country pick is Ryan Bingham. His first 1765 01:43:36,560 --> 01:43:39,639 Speaker 1: three albums are very solid. Anything coming out of Nashville 1766 01:43:39,640 --> 01:43:43,400 Speaker 1: this century is crap. But Dwight Yoakum never disappoints. Faith 1767 01:43:43,560 --> 01:43:48,280 Speaker 1: from NYC, Hey, Faith from NYC. I will add those 1768 01:43:48,320 --> 01:43:51,920 Speaker 1: to my list. Tyson writes, I'm a little late the 1769 01:43:51,920 --> 01:43:55,040 Speaker 1: conversation about country music, but here's my take. Most country 1770 01:43:55,120 --> 01:43:57,400 Speaker 1: music on the radio is basically pop. You need to 1771 01:43:57,479 --> 01:44:02,440 Speaker 1: check out red dirt music like Reckless Kelly, Ryan Bingham, Turnpike, Troubadors, 1772 01:44:02,520 --> 01:44:06,000 Speaker 1: just to name a few. Shields High John, I've heard 1773 01:44:06,000 --> 01:44:08,599 Speaker 1: of none of those. Do you know these? I am 1774 01:44:08,600 --> 01:44:14,400 Speaker 1: not familiar with any of these. Lauren writes, O MG, 1775 01:44:14,800 --> 01:44:18,800 Speaker 1: Tucker just played your favorite Ghostbusters clip. My life is 1776 01:44:18,840 --> 01:44:22,120 Speaker 1: now complete. I'm assuming it was guts and dogs living 1777 01:44:22,120 --> 01:44:26,360 Speaker 1: together a mass hysteria, which is up there with when 1778 01:44:26,400 --> 01:44:29,080 Speaker 1: someone asks you if you're a god, you say yes 1779 01:44:30,840 --> 01:44:36,839 Speaker 1: and egon your mucus. There's so many, so many quotable 1780 01:44:36,840 --> 01:44:42,240 Speaker 1: lines and Ghostbusters, John, choose, what do you mean? Choose 1781 01:44:45,680 --> 01:44:48,840 Speaker 1: Matt Rights hey Buck. Lots of great country suggestions so far. 1782 01:44:49,000 --> 01:44:52,600 Speaker 1: Give Chris le Doux a listen very popular out here 1783 01:44:52,640 --> 01:44:54,120 Speaker 1: in the West. If you want something a bit heavier, 1784 01:44:54,200 --> 01:44:57,800 Speaker 1: try dark country shields high. I don't know about any 1785 01:44:57,800 --> 01:44:59,360 Speaker 1: of that. Do you know about any stuff? I'd still 1786 01:44:59,520 --> 01:45:02,439 Speaker 1: very much coming up short here in my knowledge of 1787 01:45:02,479 --> 01:45:07,880 Speaker 1: the country music. Oh let's see we have Cade hey 1788 01:45:07,920 --> 01:45:11,759 Speaker 1: Buck with AOC's Green New Deal and Ilhan Omar rambling 1789 01:45:12,240 --> 01:45:15,120 Speaker 1: her rambling attack on Elliott Abrams. It's clear that neither 1790 01:45:15,200 --> 01:45:17,920 Speaker 1: one had much input on what actually spilled out onto 1791 01:45:17,960 --> 01:45:20,400 Speaker 1: the page. Who do you think is writing their work 1792 01:45:20,439 --> 01:45:23,040 Speaker 1: for them? Omar could barely read out loud what was 1793 01:45:23,080 --> 01:45:25,360 Speaker 1: on the page and can barely properly pronounce the words. 1794 01:45:25,400 --> 01:45:29,679 Speaker 1: Who is behind her work? That's a that's a fair question. 1795 01:45:29,680 --> 01:45:32,439 Speaker 1: I assume there are people not just on her staff, 1796 01:45:32,479 --> 01:45:35,600 Speaker 1: but I'm sure there are different left wing groups and 1797 01:45:36,840 --> 01:45:42,439 Speaker 1: organizations that are giving her information. It was I mean, 1798 01:45:42,560 --> 01:45:46,719 Speaker 1: she was embarrassing herself in my opinion when it comes 1799 01:45:46,760 --> 01:45:51,200 Speaker 1: to talking to Elliot Abrams, because he's just The knowledge 1800 01:45:51,280 --> 01:45:56,800 Speaker 1: disparity there is substantial, but doesn't matter to the left. 1801 01:45:56,840 --> 01:45:59,080 Speaker 1: I mean, the knowledge disparity as far as the left 1802 01:45:59,160 --> 01:46:02,280 Speaker 1: is concerned, is Irrell because it's all about scoring points 1803 01:46:02,320 --> 01:46:04,800 Speaker 1: against a hated enemy. In this case, the hated enemy 1804 01:46:05,000 --> 01:46:10,040 Speaker 1: is Elliott Abrams. Nikki, Hey Buck, the time of your 1805 01:46:10,040 --> 01:46:11,920 Speaker 1: show was changed up here. My husband and I would 1806 01:46:11,920 --> 01:46:14,160 Speaker 1: listen from eighteen hundred twenty one hundred hours, and now 1807 01:46:14,200 --> 01:46:17,320 Speaker 1: you're on from fifteen hundred to eighteen hundred. Since I'm working, 1808 01:46:17,360 --> 01:46:20,320 Speaker 1: I only catch the last hour usually, But I'm doing 1809 01:46:20,360 --> 01:46:23,519 Speaker 1: a one hundred mile fat bike race this weekend, and 1810 01:46:23,560 --> 01:46:26,040 Speaker 1: I download a bunch of your podcasts. Someone will need 1811 01:46:26,080 --> 01:46:28,880 Speaker 1: to keep me company in the Alaskan wilderness. I usually 1812 01:46:28,920 --> 01:46:30,960 Speaker 1: listen to Serial Killer, but when it's dark and you're 1813 01:46:31,000 --> 01:46:33,720 Speaker 1: middle of nowhere, the podcast can freak you out. Ha 1814 01:46:33,920 --> 01:46:37,240 Speaker 1: ha Shield's Eye Nikki, Well, Nikki, I'm so glad I 1815 01:46:37,240 --> 01:46:39,519 Speaker 1: can keep you company up there via the podcast in 1816 01:46:39,560 --> 01:46:45,920 Speaker 1: the freezing cold weather of a nighttime Alaska. And what 1817 01:46:46,080 --> 01:46:49,320 Speaker 1: is a John? What is a fat bike? I feel 1818 01:46:49,360 --> 01:46:51,559 Speaker 1: like I feel like are we shaming bikes now? We 1819 01:46:51,560 --> 01:46:55,360 Speaker 1: shouldn't shame bikes. All bikes are All bikes are beautiful, John, 1820 01:46:55,800 --> 01:47:01,000 Speaker 1: All bikes come in different sizes. Let's see we have 1821 01:47:02,240 --> 01:47:07,759 Speaker 1: John more on the Smallett situation looks like his manager 1822 01:47:07,880 --> 01:47:11,120 Speaker 1: is refusing to turn over his phone records. Our friend 1823 01:47:11,160 --> 01:47:14,360 Speaker 1: Andy No over at a quillet. Andy does some great 1824 01:47:15,479 --> 01:47:21,559 Speaker 1: work on the social justice left. Andy No has put 1825 01:47:21,600 --> 01:47:23,880 Speaker 1: out a tweet on this one saying that the yeah, 1826 01:47:23,920 --> 01:47:25,679 Speaker 1: you know, you know why the managers refusing to turn 1827 01:47:25,680 --> 01:47:30,080 Speaker 1: over his phone records because they're lying about this. There's 1828 01:47:30,120 --> 01:47:35,880 Speaker 1: no other there's no other explanation. There's no other explanation 1829 01:47:36,040 --> 01:47:40,719 Speaker 1: for this. Okay, So I just think that that's pretty 1830 01:47:40,800 --> 01:47:45,360 Speaker 1: clear at this point, and let's see we get here. Michael, right, 1831 01:47:45,479 --> 01:47:48,800 Speaker 1: oh Buck, you're killing me, man. Just listen to Monday's show. 1832 01:47:48,880 --> 01:47:51,960 Speaker 1: And I completely agree that Corrella Deville was the worst. 1833 01:47:52,280 --> 01:47:54,000 Speaker 1: But as a Dalmatian, I knew I was going to 1834 01:47:54,040 --> 01:47:56,000 Speaker 1: get a Dalmatian. I knew I was gonna get some 1835 01:47:56,080 --> 01:47:58,000 Speaker 1: Dalmatian owners to come at me hard on this one. 1836 01:47:58,320 --> 01:48:00,960 Speaker 1: As a Dalmatian owner myself, I have to say, overall, 1837 01:48:01,000 --> 01:48:04,000 Speaker 1: the breed's temperament are not that bad. They are a 1838 01:48:04,120 --> 01:48:06,800 Speaker 1: high energy breed and if not given a sufficient outlet 1839 01:48:06,800 --> 01:48:09,880 Speaker 1: for that energy, they can be terrors as them being biters. 1840 01:48:09,880 --> 01:48:13,639 Speaker 1: This is partially true, okay. Let's I mean if you're 1841 01:48:13,640 --> 01:48:16,280 Speaker 1: the owner, and you're saying they're kind of bitters because 1842 01:48:16,280 --> 01:48:18,840 Speaker 1: they're biters. This give me partially true. The breed is 1843 01:48:18,880 --> 01:48:22,120 Speaker 1: prone to deafness, and for obvious reasons, a deaf dog 1844 01:48:22,120 --> 01:48:24,559 Speaker 1: will be more prone to biting. Can never get mad 1845 01:48:24,600 --> 01:48:26,600 Speaker 1: at the buckster, but I gotta defend my kiddos. Have 1846 01:48:26,600 --> 01:48:30,240 Speaker 1: a good day in Shield's High. And also, Michael sent 1847 01:48:30,320 --> 01:48:33,639 Speaker 1: a photo of his mustache. His mustache is world class. 1848 01:48:34,240 --> 01:48:36,640 Speaker 1: His mustache is what you would expect to see on 1849 01:48:36,640 --> 01:48:39,960 Speaker 1: a guy who's like wearing the pants but shirtless and 1850 01:48:40,000 --> 01:48:42,920 Speaker 1: has the arms out from like a boxing print from 1851 01:48:42,960 --> 01:48:46,040 Speaker 1: the nineteen twenties. He's got that. He's got a nineteen 1852 01:48:46,520 --> 01:48:51,360 Speaker 1: twenties boss mustache. So there you have it. But yeah, Dalmatians, 1853 01:48:52,120 --> 01:48:54,519 Speaker 1: everyone loves, just like everyone loves their children. Everyone loves 1854 01:48:54,560 --> 01:48:57,800 Speaker 1: their furry children. Dalmatians, if they're your breed, I understand. 1855 01:48:58,560 --> 01:49:00,920 Speaker 1: But the reputation is the reputation, which is that they 1856 01:49:00,960 --> 01:49:03,160 Speaker 1: tend to be they tend to be a little high strong, 1857 01:49:03,200 --> 01:49:08,479 Speaker 1: they tend to be biters. So there is that we 1858 01:49:08,600 --> 01:49:15,960 Speaker 1: have time for one more here, John right, hey, buck, 1859 01:49:16,000 --> 01:49:18,320 Speaker 1: let's get rid of California and add Puerto Rico. Will 1860 01:49:18,360 --> 01:49:23,000 Speaker 1: still have fifty states, just saying, well, John, that's an 1861 01:49:23,000 --> 01:49:26,400 Speaker 1: interesting idea. I'm wondering why you'd want to go that route, 1862 01:49:26,400 --> 01:49:30,000 Speaker 1: but I can't say that, you know, wouldn't be interesting. 1863 01:49:30,560 --> 01:49:32,439 Speaker 1: Both places have nice speeches. I mean, we're doing a 1864 01:49:32,479 --> 01:49:35,839 Speaker 1: pluses and minuses of Puerto Rico versus California. The politics 1865 01:49:35,840 --> 01:49:38,120 Speaker 1: are probably about the same, though I think Puerto Rico 1866 01:49:38,280 --> 01:49:41,840 Speaker 1: is maybe even as liberal or more liberal than California 1867 01:49:41,960 --> 01:49:44,360 Speaker 1: is overall. But they have some nice speeches and some 1868 01:49:44,400 --> 01:49:47,000 Speaker 1: fun stuff going on. Let's give me a show for today, team. 1869 01:49:47,000 --> 01:49:50,640 Speaker 1: I'll be on Kennedy tonight on Fox Business talking about 1870 01:49:50,680 --> 01:49:56,240 Speaker 1: all the nonsense with McCabe, or really the revelations about well, 1871 01:49:56,280 --> 01:49:57,880 Speaker 1: we already knew some of this stuff. I shouldn't say 1872 01:49:58,160 --> 01:50:00,479 Speaker 1: the confirmations of what we thought we knew from the 1873 01:50:00,520 --> 01:50:03,479 Speaker 1: McCabe situation. So I'll be on Kennedy around nine fifteen 1874 01:50:03,520 --> 01:50:06,040 Speaker 1: or nine thirty Eastern turn on Fox Business. I'm gonna 1875 01:50:06,040 --> 01:50:08,240 Speaker 1: be out tomorrow.
