Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom hunt. One down, one ago.
Speaker 1: The Democrat debate last night was more or less what
Speaker 1: we expected, a whole bunch of crazy with some social
Speaker 1: justice rhetoric thrown into the mix. And then tonight there'll
Speaker 1: be more candidates on the left making a mockery of
Speaker 1: themselves in front of the American people. We'll talk about
Speaker 1: what they said, what they stand for, and all the
Speaker 1: rest of what you need to know coming up on
Speaker 1: the Buck Sexton Show. This is the Buck Sexton Show,
Speaker 1: where the mission or mission is to decode what really
Speaker 1: matters with actionable intelligence. Make no mistake American, You're a
Speaker 1: great American. Again, the Buck Sexton Show begins. He's a
Speaker 1: great guy, No man. I washed that debate last night.
Speaker 1: It was not particularly memorable. But welcome to the Buck
Speaker 1: Saxon Show. We'll talk a bit about this just because
Speaker 1: it is a window into the decrepit soul of the
Speaker 1: American left. We got a sense of what they stand for,
Speaker 1: who they are on the upside. Before I get into
Speaker 1: the degree the depths of crazy to which we were
Speaker 1: forced to endure. Before I get to that, I'll say
Speaker 1: I think that Delaney and Gabbert looked looked pretty normal, right.
Speaker 1: I think that's a fair I think Delaney and Gabber
Speaker 1: probably came out of the crew the best, and then
Speaker 1: there was just some whackadoo stuff, which we'll be getting
Speaker 1: into here in just a moment. But Beto is Betto
Speaker 1: is Beto, he is Dunzo. I do not think Betto
Speaker 1: is gonna, which is a shame because I really enjoy
Speaker 1: people really like the Betto impersonation Prucer Mike, so we
Speaker 1: might have to just create a character. It's like, but
Speaker 1: those are special, like American unity around the campfire while
Speaker 1: he plays a guitar correspondent to make fun of. He's
Speaker 1: fun to make fun of, you know. I mean that's
Speaker 1: so I'm a little sad that he's not going to
Speaker 1: be in the mix more. It's like Bernie Sanders. You
Speaker 1: gotta have the poem because then you can act if
Speaker 1: he was president for full he was thinking about what
Speaker 1: we could do. We could talk about Bernie Sanders all
Speaker 1: the time. It'd be fantastic. Um. I mean, it'd be
Speaker 1: bad for the economy, for the country and for the world,
Speaker 1: but at least I'd be able to make fun of
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders a lot, which would be good. Now though,
Speaker 1: on to the crazy for a second here. Um. And
Speaker 1: but we've got some big Supreme Court decisions that came
Speaker 1: down today, one on jerrymandering and one on the census.
Speaker 1: So the jerrymandering the Court was correct and said that
Speaker 1: it's not an issue for the for the Supreme Court
Speaker 1: to decide jerry mannering is gonna happen. The census question,
Speaker 1: I think was close to wrongly decided, and I think
Speaker 1: it's a bad thing going on there. So we'll see
Speaker 1: what happens. We'll talk about that there later on. Let's
Speaker 1: get into why. I. I just think it was a
Speaker 1: good thing for the American people to see last night.
Speaker 1: Who these Democrats are, what they believe, what they think,
Speaker 1: and how completely bizarre some of their beliefs are, and
Speaker 1: what social justice rhetoric and thinking can do to a person,
Speaker 1: how wrong, how outside the mainstream, how just looney can
Speaker 1: it make you. You knew that the social issues would
Speaker 1: come up in the course of the debate with all
Speaker 1: these different candidates, but I did not expect this to happen.
Speaker 1: And I usually know what the Democrats are gonna do,
Speaker 1: where they're gonna go with something. I am rarely surprised
Speaker 1: by the Democrats. This one was a WT moment, This
Speaker 1: was wow. Ulean Castro last night said that, well, we
Speaker 1: knew that. He said that they should have taxpayers fund abortions,
Speaker 1: which is a very has been a red line in
Speaker 1: American politics for a long time. It's why we had
Speaker 1: the High Amendment. Now, as I've said, money is fungible,
Speaker 1: and you give money to Planned Parenthood, you're giving money
Speaker 1: to abortion mills. It doesn't really change. But at least
Speaker 1: there was this this something of an effort to even
Speaker 1: if just give a fig leaf that we're not going
Speaker 1: to take money from Americans and just funnel it right
Speaker 1: away in a direct fashion from your pocket to the
Speaker 1: treasury to abortion abortion mills. And now the Democrats have
Speaker 1: abandoned that. It is the official Democratic Party platform that
Speaker 1: you must fund, that abortion is abortions are healthcare, and
Speaker 1: that it must be funded. But then, so that's already
Speaker 1: a radical position, and it's a deeply immoral position. It's
Speaker 1: a scientifically on sound position. It's a you know, you
Speaker 1: go down. It's heinous, it's it's evil, it's wrong. But
Speaker 1: this added a whole other layer what Castro said last
Speaker 1: night to this issue Plate ten. Would your plan cover abortion,
Speaker 1: mister Secretary, I guess it would. I don't believe only
Speaker 1: in reproductive freedom. I believe in reproductive justice. And you
Speaker 1: know what that means is that just because a woman
Speaker 1: or let's also not forget someone in the trans community,
Speaker 1: a trans email this core, doesn't mean they shouldn't have
Speaker 1: the right to exercise that right to choose. And so
Speaker 1: I absolutely would cover the right to have an abortion.
Speaker 1: So a trans female would have a taxpayer funded abortion.
Speaker 1: Is that am I missing at MIC? Or is that
Speaker 1: what I feel like? That's what was said, Let's not
Speaker 1: leave the trans community out of the abortion and they
Speaker 1: said a trans female, which would mean a biological male,
Speaker 1: a biological male. Who, Yeah, does someone need to explain
Speaker 1: x x x Y chromosome, the birds and the bees.
Speaker 1: I know that this is a massive pandering festival last
Speaker 1: night to all the different communities, of all the different
Speaker 1: factions with the Democratic Party, but I am pretty darn
Speaker 1: short that it is not something that we have to
Speaker 1: worry about when you have biological males who are transgender
Speaker 1: females putting us on what that even means for a moment,
Speaker 1: I am quite certain they cannot have children and therefore
Speaker 1: the abortion, the abortion issue does not come into play.
Speaker 1: And for a presidential candidate the Democratic Party to say
Speaker 1: that was just a window into Wow, these people are nuts.
Speaker 1: They're just living in an alternate universe. Facts don't matter,
Speaker 1: science doesn't matter, reality doesn't matter. It's just whatever. Sounds
Speaker 1: like they care the most about an agree of the community,
Speaker 1: or an a press community or whatever it. Maybe we'll
Speaker 1: get into later about all the ablest panol that was
Speaker 1: going on. You know, Corey Booker spoke about trans Americans
Speaker 1: last night as well. He didn't I don't believe he
Speaker 1: said that they should get taxpayer funded abortions, which Corey
Speaker 1: Booker's got that at least going for him. But but
Speaker 1: here's what he said, play KIPT twelve. Civil rights is
Speaker 1: someplace to begin, but in the African American civil rights
Speaker 1: community another place to focus, almost to stop the lynching
Speaker 1: of African Americans. We do not talk enough about trans Americans,
Speaker 1: especially African American trans Americans, and the incredibly high rates
Speaker 1: of murder right now. We don't talk enough about how
Speaker 1: many children, about thirty percent of LGBTQ kids who do
Speaker 1: not go to school because of fear it's not enough
Speaker 1: just to be on the Equality Act. I'm an original cosponsor.
Speaker 1: We need to have a president that will fight to
Speaker 1: protect LGBTQ Americans every single day from violence. So we
Speaker 1: don't talk enough, according Democrats about trans Americans, or as
Speaker 1: as Corey Booker says, they're African American trans Americans. So
Speaker 1: I mean that's a whole even more specific designation. Producer
Speaker 1: Mike just sent me this. People who identify as trans
Speaker 1: are point two percent of the population. I think we
Speaker 1: talk about trans Americans a lot. Actually, I think the
Speaker 1: Democratic Party is obsessed with the issue of trans Americans
Speaker 1: because they think that this is a new civil rights
Speaker 1: struggle and it brings together for them the eradication of
Speaker 1: gender and the radical equality that they believe they can
Speaker 1: make between men and women by eliminating gender as something
Speaker 1: that is physically constructed, something that is biologically based. They're
Speaker 1: wrong in this, and that's why they have these completely
Speaker 1: insane ideas, like you know, there should be trans trans
Speaker 1: female mma fighters and that that's not dangerous and a
Speaker 1: terrible idea. I mean, they're wrong about these things, but
Speaker 1: nonetheless they do cling to them. But who you cast
Speaker 1: for last night, trans Americans should or trans females rather
Speaker 1: should have taxpayer funded abortions. If you were trying to
Speaker 1: come up with a tagline for the Democrat debate last
Speaker 1: night of just how far left, how crazy this party
Speaker 1: has become. We're not sitting around arguing over you know,
Speaker 1: what the marginal tax rate should be, Should it be
Speaker 1: up two percent or down two percent or something. I
Speaker 1: mean there's some people want to have that conversation. No, no, No,
Speaker 1: Democrats now as a party are kicking at the load
Speaker 1: bearing walls of our society. I mean they just want
Speaker 1: to see how far they can push everything. And if
Speaker 1: you have any questions at all, it just if you
Speaker 1: just want to slow things down a little bit. Hey,
Speaker 1: we study this little work. We spent a little more
Speaker 1: time on this. You're a bigot, You're awful, You're mean.
Speaker 1: You don't care about kids drowning in the rio grand
Speaker 1: you don't care about Transamericans being murdered. No, I mean
Speaker 1: we care about all those that. We don't want anything
Speaker 1: bad to happen to anybody. But can we talk about policy?
Speaker 1: Can we talk about what works in the real world? Oh? No,
Speaker 1: You see, last night was a portal the Democrats created
Speaker 1: a portal into a left wing fantasy world where reality
Speaker 1: no longer counts. It's just whatever gets the left wing
Speaker 1: audience riled up and feels emotionally validated. That's what the
Speaker 1: Democratic Party has become. Insanity that emotionally validates the left,
Speaker 1: and that's what we saw in the debate. We have
Speaker 1: more on this in a moment. My plan would be
Speaker 1: to first of all, make community college free and make
Speaker 1: sure that everyone else besides that top percentile gets help
Speaker 1: with our education. Secondly, I'd use pell grants, I double
Speaker 1: them from six thousand to twelve thousand dollars a year
Speaker 1: and expand it to the number of families that get
Speaker 1: covered up to families that make up to one hundred
Speaker 1: thousand dollars. My family didn't have the money for college application,
Speaker 1: much less a chance for me to go to college,
Speaker 1: but I got my chance. It was a fifty dollars
Speaker 1: a semester commuter college. That was a little slice of
Speaker 1: government that created some opportunity for a girl, and it
Speaker 1: opened my life. You're never gonna find out how expensive
Speaker 1: college can be until it is free. Trust me. You
Speaker 1: had their Klobaschar and pocahonas aka Elizabeth Warren talking about
Speaker 1: the ways that they want to expand people's ability to
Speaker 1: go to college. Let's let's understand this. You have one
Speaker 1: point seven one point six trillion dollars of outstanding student loans,
Speaker 1: which means that there are a lot of people who
Speaker 1: are taking out loans. But by the way of that,
Speaker 1: one thing that doesn't get discussed. Of that one point
Speaker 1: six trillion, there's a big chunk of that that is
Speaker 1: for profit colleges. There's a big chunk of that that
Speaker 1: is education that people should probably think long and hard
Speaker 1: before they go forward with it. A for profit college
Speaker 1: can work for people, can be okaput is a sketchy
Speaker 1: success ratio for people who are trying to get certain
Speaker 1: jobs going to these for profit universities and these different
Speaker 1: online programs. And here's what the real discussion should be
Speaker 1: at at the national level, instead of just trying to
Speaker 1: say that everything is free, which means that everyone is
Speaker 1: going to pay for really the top third of America socioeconomically,
Speaker 1: there's going to be a subsidy that the taxpayers going
Speaker 1: to provide for them to go to school. There are
Speaker 1: already are lots of subsidies. I mean, we're already funneling
Speaker 1: dollars into state universities and state colleges community colleges. You
Speaker 1: can more or less go to community college almost for free,
Speaker 1: and at the very elite level places like Yale University
Speaker 1: Harvard University. If you make under a certain amount of money,
Speaker 1: you are probably going to graduate with little to no debt.
Speaker 1: This is not a program. This is not a plan
Speaker 1: that the Democrats are putting forward that's going to make
Speaker 1: this better, because they're not dealing with the real problem.
Speaker 1: The real problem is if everybody this is market base,
Speaker 1: this is supply and demand. If everybody has some kind
Speaker 1: of a degree and that's a credential that is used
Speaker 1: in the hiring process, then guess what. That credential isn't
Speaker 1: worth as much anymore. You know, if you gave everybody
Speaker 1: in the in the United States a million dollars, it
Speaker 1: wouldn't be the same to be a millionaire anymore either, Right,
Speaker 1: You wouldn't be like, oh, I'm rich now, No, you
Speaker 1: wouldn't be rich because everybody's got a million dollars. There
Speaker 1: is going to be a stratification process involved in higher education.
Speaker 1: You're never going to get rid of it entirely. Ultimately,
Speaker 1: everybody can't get a trophy. Now, another part of this
Speaker 1: is that going to a four year college is not
Speaker 1: necessarily a trophy. He might not want to do it.
Speaker 1: In my own way, as somebody who comes from a
Speaker 1: coastal city and thought about getting a very expensive two
Speaker 1: year graduate degree. I looked at this problem as somebody
Speaker 1: who came out of the government, had very little savings.
Speaker 1: I mean, like basically no money in the bank, and
Speaker 1: was going to apply to go get an MBA and
Speaker 1: do all this stuff. And I said, you know, I
Speaker 1: just I'd rather just get a job and just just
Speaker 1: hustle and just make it happen. That's what I did.
Speaker 1: Now here I am on a nationally syndicated radio show.
Speaker 1: Yah me. But these are the decisions that people should
Speaker 1: be forced to make. You have to have individual responsibility.
Speaker 1: It's amazing to hear democrats up there on that stage
Speaker 1: talking for as long as they did, and words like
Speaker 1: you know, freedom, liberty, individual responsibility. None of these things
Speaker 1: ever come out of their mouths. There's a whole lexicon,
Speaker 1: there's a whole way of speaking talking about this kind
Speaker 1: of justice, that kind of justice, you know, the way
Speaker 1: that layers of oppression make their way into the thinking
Speaker 1: of all of these Libs on that stage all the time,
Speaker 1: and the way they'll talk about our democracy, our democracy,
Speaker 1: first of all, it's a republican. Second of all, democracy
Speaker 1: just means whatever gets libs in power. That's really what
Speaker 1: democracy is for them. It's not what they pretend that
Speaker 1: it is. And you know, the plans they have for
Speaker 1: college are not going to help the people that they
Speaker 1: think they're going to help. I mean, to eliminate all
Speaker 1: that debt is it would be an act of tremendous
Speaker 1: unfairness to people who didn't take out those loans or
Speaker 1: already paid off their loans. So I just think it's
Speaker 1: it's it's important that we see this for what it
Speaker 1: really is. And the Libs are they'll never learn that,
Speaker 1: that is for sure. They will absolutely never learn, oh
Speaker 1: speak of, never learned family separation. They talked a lot
Speaker 1: about immigration last night. You know what you got from it.
Speaker 1: They have no plans, no interest whatsoever in stopping the
Speaker 1: flow of migrants to our southern border. They do not
Speaker 1: view this, I keep saying it. They do not view
Speaker 1: this as a problem. They don't see this as an issue. They,
Speaker 1: if anything, just hope that this continues on and they
Speaker 1: like the issue as a means of bashing Republicans. Here
Speaker 1: is Beto. It's like I just last night, it was
Speaker 1: my big chance, and I didn't seize that chance. But
Speaker 1: if we just all seize each other and just hold
Speaker 1: each other's hands, and you don't have to sing in tune,
Speaker 1: but just like I just want to play a g
Speaker 1: on my guitar, and then if you're close enough to it,
Speaker 1: we can all just like sing together and I'll make
Speaker 1: my big comeback. But Beto was talking about family separation,
Speaker 1: the only part of the immigration debate the Democrats want
Speaker 1: to discuss. Here's what they said, Play eight. No one's
Speaker 1: worked harder to end the practice of family separation. My administration,
Speaker 1: we will reunite every separated family. We will free Dreamers
Speaker 1: from any fear of deportation by making them US citizens,
Speaker 1: and will rewrite our immigration laws in our own image
Speaker 1: so they reflect our values, our interests, and our reality
Speaker 1: in cities like Miami where we are today, or my
Speaker 1: hometown of El Paso. So a very ambitious, bold plan
Speaker 1: to make sure that we get immigration policy right. What
Speaker 1: does that mean? You know, it's my favorite question. What
Speaker 1: does that mean we're gonna rewrite We're gonna rewrite our
Speaker 1: immigration plan so that they represent a mirror who we
Speaker 1: are as a people. I did myself an AD. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: He would give himself an A. He doesn't, he doesn't
Speaker 1: even know what that means other than stay away from
Speaker 1: talking about how the Democrats are an open borders party.
Speaker 1: I did myself an A. Yeah, if you can get here,
Speaker 1: you can stay. That's the bet the Beto way, And
Speaker 1: then he'd give himself an A. It's really just it was.
Speaker 1: It was madness up there on stage last night. It
Speaker 1: was a lot of people who are even where they
Speaker 1: were saying the stuff that's even crazier than that then
Speaker 1: then what they would want to say for the most part,
Speaker 1: because that is where the base of the Democratic Party is.
Speaker 1: It was a a smorgest board of crazy, a bacchanal
Speaker 1: of the insane, at a menagerie of mindlessness. I could
Speaker 1: go on and on. I should be a sportscaster, you know,
Speaker 1: serendipity baby, you know I can be one of those guys.
Speaker 1: Is that Dick vital right? Yeah, yeah, that's right. I
Speaker 1: know some things about the sports, not as much as
Speaker 1: you might but I'm working on it. It's okay. By
Speaker 1: the way, we're gonna have and Colter joining us for
Speaker 1: quite a bit in the second hour. We're gonna have
Speaker 1: a chat about the Central Park five as well as
Speaker 1: the big Supreme Court cases that came down today and
Speaker 1: is super fun, So definitely stay stay around for that.
Speaker 1: That'll be right in the middle of the show. We'll
Speaker 1: be right back. Well, the biggest geopolitical challenge is China.
Speaker 1: The biggest threat to the security the United States is
Speaker 1: Donald Trump. You're at a greater risk of nuclear war
Speaker 1: today than ever before in history. Our major threat right
Speaker 1: now is what's going on in the Mid East with
Speaker 1: Iran essential threat is climate change, climate change, Yeah, Center Booker,
Speaker 1: Nuclear Proliferation and climate Change Secretary Castra Say China, and
Speaker 1: climate Change Congressman Ryan China. Without a question, Russia, because
Speaker 1: they're trying to undermine our democracy. The biggest threat, folks,
Speaker 1: accord of these democrats, the biggest threat the United States faces.
Speaker 1: You heard all their answers there. It was a kind
Speaker 1: of one of the few rapid fire moments of what
Speaker 1: was a pretty lackluster overall. I mean, there's there was
Speaker 1: nobody was impressive I mean, I actually did this out
Speaker 1: last night. I would take Mike, what do you think
Speaker 1: of us? I would take any if I had to
Speaker 1: start a new chain of yogurt shops, you know, if
Speaker 1: I was going to be a startup of my own business,
Speaker 1: I would take a random MBA student, just picked at random,
Speaker 1: over pretty much anybody. The only exception might be Delaney,
Speaker 1: but everybody else on that stage last night, I would
Speaker 1: take random MBA student. Yeah, no doubt, no doubt about it.
Speaker 1: People have no no sense of how a business works,
Speaker 1: no sense of how the or at least when they
Speaker 1: talk about this, they have no sense about the real
Speaker 1: world works. You know, I'm something like Elizabeth Warreners. She
Speaker 1: has she ever had to has she ever had to
Speaker 1: read a balance sheet? Does she have any idea? She
Speaker 1: talks about small business all the time. What does she
Speaker 1: know about small business? You's been a professor? Mom, Paul
Speaker 1: never taught her that. I guess not. But you know,
Speaker 1: there was a lot of stuff last night that was
Speaker 1: pretty crazy. That's that's really the theme. Democrats are crazy.
Speaker 1: A lesson from debate one. Democrats are crazy. We can
Speaker 1: take that that one to the bank. But then there's
Speaker 1: also on the national security side. I forget who it
Speaker 1: was that said Trump. I think that's I think it
Speaker 1: was Insley. Maybe he might have said Trump, or who's
Speaker 1: who said Trump was the what doesn't matter. Yeah, there's
Speaker 1: a part of me that wants to give the benefit
Speaker 1: of the doubt and say that that they don't. He
Speaker 1: didn't mean that, as in he just was trying to
Speaker 1: be funny. But I do believe it. There are Democrats,
Speaker 1: and perhaps Ensley is one of them, who really think
Speaker 1: that the greatest threat that the country faces is in fact,
Speaker 1: Donald Trump. These people are nuts, absolutely nuts, the biggest threat.
Speaker 1: He's been president for over two years. The country's fine.
Speaker 1: Things are good, We're not starting any big wars, haven't
Speaker 1: gotten hit with any major knock on wood, haven't gotten
Speaker 1: hit with any major terrorist attacks. Economy is really robust.
Speaker 1: What what's the problem everybody? It's like they hate the
Speaker 1: country doing so well. On the left, I don't know
Speaker 1: what to say. If you would if you had told
Speaker 1: people when they were voting, based on what the Democrats
Speaker 1: were saying in the fall of twenty sixteen, that this
Speaker 1: is what the country would look like under Donald Trump,
Speaker 1: I think I think you would have beaten Hillary and
Speaker 1: a lot of states that he didn't even beat it
Speaker 1: right now, if you really had that clarity about the
Speaker 1: results of this presidency. But he said that Trump was
Speaker 1: the biggest threat. Look, people want to say the Democrats
Speaker 1: who said nuclear stuff or Iran, that's legit, that's you
Speaker 1: can make that claim. I don't think Iran really is
Speaker 1: that big of a threat to us, but I do
Speaker 1: think it's fair to say that the Iranians are a
Speaker 1: threat in general. You could make. I mean, the real
Speaker 1: answer is, China is the only China is the only
Speaker 1: country in the world that poses a challenge to us
Speaker 1: of replacing US as the global hedgemon. They're the only
Speaker 1: one that for the next hundred years that's a serious,
Speaker 1: a serious concern. Russia is not there, we go. Russia
Speaker 1: is not a serious concern on that on that front.
Speaker 1: But Russia could be a threat in some way. But
Speaker 1: the part of it that really just got me incensed
Speaker 1: us to say, the biggest threat that the United States
Speaker 1: faces the biggest national security geopolitical. So geopolitical threat includes
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of stuff. Threat to the United States
Speaker 1: has climate change. This is not a thing that that saying.
Speaker 1: People would say This is not a thing that you
Speaker 1: would believe unless you had consumed so much propaganda and
Speaker 1: you knew that your team, as in Team Lived, the
Speaker 1: left was so set on this that it's impossible, impossible
Speaker 1: to get them to think rationally about it. It is
Speaker 1: complete nonsense to say that the biggest geopolitical threat to
Speaker 1: America's climate change. I don't care who they have saying
Speaker 1: they're wrong, and it doesn't matter if they could have
Speaker 1: the biggest genius in the world sit down and not
Speaker 1: that they have the biggest genius in the world's usually
Speaker 1: Al Gore or Leonardo DiCaprio, but they sit down and
Speaker 1: say that this is what really, what really should concern us.
Speaker 1: This is the catastrophis mindset that has been wrong countless time,
Speaker 1: stretching back for centuries, about how we're all going to
Speaker 1: die unless this thing happens. It's not going to happen.
Speaker 1: I assure you climate change is not the threat that
Speaker 1: they think that it is. And then so you have
Speaker 1: four people say either climate change and just their primary answer,
Speaker 1: or just throw climate change in there as well, because
Speaker 1: the left wing base, I mean, the left wing voters
Speaker 1: in these primaries are all climate change lunatics. I mean,
Speaker 1: they they think that climate change and if you don't
Speaker 1: believe in climate change, there's something deeply morally wrong with you.
Speaker 1: You know, you you don't care about the future of
Speaker 1: this country, you don't care about the world melting down.
Speaker 1: You know, you just don't care about any of it.
Speaker 1: So that is where they are. And I think that
Speaker 1: it's fair to say that that's a that's a crazy belief,
Speaker 1: that's not a rational thing for anyone to believe at all.
Speaker 1: And that was something the Democrats we're saying a lot
Speaker 1: less than another thing that came up, that the class
Speaker 1: warfare stuff. It never gets old. Unfortunately it works. You
Speaker 1: know why, let's all be honest about this. Envy makes
Speaker 1: for good politics. Envy is a is a human frailty.
Speaker 1: We all have it in different ways. We all covet
Speaker 1: you know, our neighbor's wife, or our neighbor's husband, or
Speaker 1: our neighbor's house or you know, and you have to
Speaker 1: fight against that, you know, you have to fight against
Speaker 1: wanting what somebody else has, coveting their success, their wealth
Speaker 1: there there, whatever it may be. But if you're willing
Speaker 1: to pinpoint that and try to appeal to someone's m
Speaker 1: you can get very, very far. And that's where Bill
Speaker 1: Deblasio comes in. Play clip fourteen. This is supposed to
Speaker 1: be the party of working people. Yes, we're supposed to
Speaker 1: be for seventy percent tax rate on the wealthy. Yes,
Speaker 1: we're supposed to be for free college, free public college
Speaker 1: for our young people. We are supposed to break up
Speaker 1: big corporations when they're not serving our democracy. This Democratic
Speaker 1: Party has to be strong and bold and progressive. And
Speaker 1: in New York we've proved that we can do something
Speaker 1: very different. We can put money back in the hands
Speaker 1: of working people. And let me tell you, every time
Speaker 1: you talk about investing in people in their communities, you
Speaker 1: hear folks say there's not enough money. What I say
Speaker 1: of them every single time is there's plenty of money
Speaker 1: in this world. There's plenty of money in this country.
Speaker 1: It's just in the wrong hands. Democrats have to fix that.
Speaker 1: That should send a chill down your spine. That he
Speaker 1: will just come out and say, this is the mayor
Speaker 1: of the largest city in the country, I'm coming to
Speaker 1: you from that city right now on this show. That
Speaker 1: there's plenty of money, it's just in the wrong hands.
Speaker 1: What a statement, What a thing to say. I mean,
Speaker 1: this is, you know, right out of the Carl Marks
Speaker 1: playbook here. This is astonishing stuff for a major American
Speaker 1: political figure, for better, for worse, for worse obviously, to
Speaker 1: be saying on the stage like this, it was just stunning.
Speaker 1: And when he's not telling us that the wrong people
Speaker 1: have the money, then he's saying that people in New
Speaker 1: York City need to watch that you need to watch
Speaker 1: out because of all the all the racists here, especially
Speaker 1: among the police. Play thirteen. So I want to say,
Speaker 1: there's something that sets me apart from all my colleagues
Speaker 1: running in this race, and that is for the last
Speaker 1: twenty one years, I've been raising the black sun in America,
Speaker 1: and I have had to have very very serious talks
Speaker 1: with my son Dante about how to protect himself on
Speaker 1: the streets of our city and all over this country,
Speaker 1: including how to deal with the fact that he has
Speaker 1: to take special caution because there have been too many
Speaker 1: tragedies between our young men and our police too. Panderer
Speaker 1: of the Big Apple build a Blasio. Fortunately, even Democrats
Speaker 1: won't vote for that guy. You know, I was hoping
Speaker 1: last night was that somebody was going to hand klobaschar
Speaker 1: used combs so she could eat a salad during the break.
Speaker 1: I didn't want her to get low blood sugar. Be
Speaker 1: right back. Democrats are solely responsible for the humanitarian crisis
Speaker 1: because they've refused every single effort to shut off the
Speaker 1: magnets of child smuggling. Hard to believe. Well, let me
Speaker 1: be perfectly clearer. I'm glad the Speaker and the administration
Speaker 1: are discussing some of these outstanding issues. But if House
Speaker 1: Democrats send the Senate back some partisan effort to disrupt
Speaker 1: our bipartisan progress, we will simply move to table. The
Speaker 1: United States Senate is not going to pass a border
Speaker 1: funding bill that cuts the money for ICE and the
Speaker 1: Department of Defense and not going to happen. We already
Speaker 1: have our compromise, The Shelby Lahy Senate Bill is the
Speaker 1: only game in town. Time to quit playing games, Time
Speaker 1: to make a law, cocaine. Mitch hath spoken this time
Speaker 1: it quit playing games. He's right. The Democrats taking the
Speaker 1: position that they're going to get some other cuts in
Speaker 1: enforcement measures. I mean, this couldn't be any more obvious.
Speaker 1: Could you imagine, just think about this for a moment.
Speaker 1: If we were dealing with any other area of criminal law,
Speaker 1: and there was a crisis, right if we had well,
Speaker 1: we do have a drug crisis in this country, but
Speaker 1: if there was a burglary crisis, and them which because
Speaker 1: burglary is illegal, and the Democrats came along and they said,
Speaker 1: all right, look, will we're willing to to put more
Speaker 1: more you know, treatment programs in place for people who
Speaker 1: are compulsive thieves, but we don't want to do anything
Speaker 1: to help the burglary units of the police departments. We
Speaker 1: don't want there to be you know, more staffing to
Speaker 1: help investigate these crimes. We're only going to work on
Speaker 1: the treatment side of the equation. I think people would
Speaker 1: say that they were nuts, or if they were going
Speaker 1: to say that, we're gonna have deferred prosecution agreements for
Speaker 1: everybody doing burglary and that's it, so there's no real
Speaker 1: punishment for it. You just steal stuff and then you
Speaker 1: get let go. But we're gonna make sure you let
Speaker 1: go quickly and humanely. That's that's what they really push for.
Speaker 1: It's it's maddening, folks. It's maddening that they don't want
Speaker 1: any enforcement measures to be in place that has been
Speaker 1: clear for a long time here. They only talked last
Speaker 1: night in this debate about the ways in which they
Speaker 1: would really like to essentially pander to the illegal immigrant
Speaker 1: and predominantly Hispanic community. As we're on air, we got
Speaker 1: we got the Senate right there, they're voting. Okay, they're
Speaker 1: gonna pass it looks like this four point six billion
Speaker 1: dollar boarder bill. And this is just money to deal
Speaker 1: with the facilities and the overcrowding. This isn't going to
Speaker 1: make the problem stop. This isn't going to make the
Speaker 1: problem go away, which is why I think there's so
Speaker 1: little hope that this is going to be something that
Speaker 1: doesn't continue to just drag on and on. There are
Speaker 1: reasons why people are coming here illegally, and those reasons
Speaker 1: are not going away because of what Democrats are doing.
Speaker 1: And from last night, as we started off the show
Speaker 1: discussing Democrats are crazy, and they are crazy on this issue,
Speaker 1: but somehow they've managed to create a narrative that makes
Speaker 1: Republicans feel like they need to be on defense here. Well,
Speaker 1: I shouldn't say somehow, this is what they always do.
Speaker 1: But even people within the bureaucracy of enforcement itself are
Speaker 1: feeling the heat and This is an AP News story
Speaker 1: today about the turmoil inside the Department of Homeland Security
Speaker 1: over this rede leaks, pointed accusations, a top officials resignation,
Speaker 1: and above all, increasingly dire conditions for migrants, those who
Speaker 1: make it across the border and those who fails. Captured
Speaker 1: in the searing images of a father clutching a child then,
Speaker 1: which everyone has been quite focused on. But this is
Speaker 1: what the AP story says. The Department of Homeland Security
Speaker 1: has entered a new stage of dysfunction and finger pointing
Speaker 1: as the administration continues to rearrange staff and push hardline rhetoric,
Speaker 1: squabbling and jockeying over jobs. Comes from an outrage over
Speaker 1: reports for children who held the border. And there's just
Speaker 1: all this, all this now, all these accusations about people
Speaker 1: leaking you. At last week, Mark Morgan, newly installed as
Speaker 1: acting director of ICE, saw to please his boss by
Speaker 1: moving forward with an operation targeting families. Then people said
Speaker 1: Macalinan may have leaked about this to stop it from happening.
Speaker 1: Now there's all this finger pointing, all this mess here.
Speaker 1: Here's what's going on. People that work in the government
Speaker 1: have gotten the message from the media from the libs
Speaker 1: from the left that if you try and do what
Speaker 1: Trump wants you to do, if you go along with
Speaker 1: what Trump is trying to accomplish at the border, they
Speaker 1: will settle scores with you even after you leave government service.
Speaker 1: The left is very good at this. They're good at
Speaker 1: witch hunts, they're good at pressure campaigns at Boycott's and
Speaker 1: now at a form of blacklisting. They blacklist people that
Speaker 1: work in a Republican administration. This is that they've done
Speaker 1: this so that if and then there's these have been campaigns.
Speaker 1: I mean, this has really happened. I'm not imagining this.
Speaker 1: They've they've pushed around these uh petitions, you know, don't
Speaker 1: hire anybody, don't work with anybody, don't do anything with
Speaker 1: anybody who works for the Trump administration when they leave
Speaker 1: government service, even if they are practitioners, even if they
Speaker 1: are people who are just doing a job like law
Speaker 1: enforcement in DHS. This is about homeland security. It's not
Speaker 1: supposed to be political. It's supposed to be working within
Speaker 1: the framework of the laws that we have to protect
Speaker 1: all of us. And Nope, not anymore. It used to
Speaker 1: be that if you came out of an administration to
Speaker 1: seeing your post. You could look forward to, you could
Speaker 1: look forward to the Biden treatment. You know, two hundred
Speaker 1: thousand dollars speeches Angel hare pasta biscotti top with a
Speaker 1: little bit of I was gonna say parmisan, but you
Speaker 1: don't put parmisan on a biscotti mark, No, you put
Speaker 1: what do you call it? The what's the what do
Speaker 1: you call it? Is like the creme, but it's not
Speaker 1: the gelato, see ya? You put a gelato on the bascatti. Right,
Speaker 1: that's what you're supposed to get. If you're a senior
Speaker 1: government official, you get all the fancy stuff. If you're
Speaker 1: a senior government official, work in a DHS for Trump
Speaker 1: and you leave and you try to get a job
Speaker 1: private sector, you want to be on the board of
Speaker 1: the company. Any of this stuff, you know what ends
Speaker 1: up happening nothing because people won't talk to you, they
Speaker 1: won't touch you, and all they see this is the
Speaker 1: thing that they don't. They don't just work on public opinion.
Speaker 1: The left creates professional and personal fear among those that
Speaker 1: are supposed to enact the Trump agenda. And this is
Speaker 1: how you have a Department of Homeland Security that has
Speaker 1: now senior people that are pointing fingers talking about leaks.
Speaker 1: You get, you get people that are have already resigned.
Speaker 1: They're trying to get out of there because they don't
Speaker 1: want to deal with what the Libs will do to
Speaker 1: them when the time comes. They don't want to deal
Speaker 1: with what will happen after they leave office if they're
Speaker 1: a part of this. I mean, you've got members of
Speaker 1: Congress that Trump is running concentration camps at the border,
Speaker 1: and obviously Libs don't appreciate that. I'm sorry. Obviously that's
Speaker 1: going to impact somebody's job prospects. To have you worked
Speaker 1: in a situation where they're told that they're the equivalent
Speaker 1: of you know, the the Nazis right, And this is
Speaker 1: what libs do. They're very effective at this, at putting
Speaker 1: reputational risk on the shoulders of those who are working
Speaker 1: in law enforcement under this administration, who are working within
Speaker 1: the federal government for this president. You do this at
Speaker 1: your peril, even if the public supports you by a majority.
Speaker 1: That's what's going on inside DAHS as I see it.
Speaker 1: We'll be right back. Some big Supreme Court cases came
Speaker 1: down today and uh, you know, we have and culter
Speaker 1: with us now to talk about why once again conservative
Speaker 1: justices don't seem to be able to stay, stay on
Speaker 1: their team, stay on the script. John Roberts, I've had
Speaker 1: questions about him all along. But we'll get aunt Away
Speaker 1: in and tell us what's really happening here. She is,
Speaker 1: of course a cult or thirteen bestsellers. You know her,
Speaker 1: you see her, and thank you so much. All Right,
Speaker 1: we got these two, let's start. Can we start with
Speaker 1: the jerrymandering case? Just to dispense with this, I want
Speaker 1: to know what is the standard? What is the standard
Speaker 1: that liberals offer for it's not going to be political?
Speaker 1: How we decide what congressional districts are in our state?
Speaker 1: How does that work? Well? Um, First of all, I
Speaker 1: should throw in a caveat to this after saying sure,
Speaker 1: I'd love to discuss the case to day. I haven't.
Speaker 1: I haven't read them yet, but I have a general
Speaker 1: idea what they concluded. And on the jerrymandering case, Um,
Speaker 1: if you were an assiduous viewer of MSNBC, you would
Speaker 1: know that the only people who engage in jerrymandering are Republicans.
Speaker 1: Fuck Saxon, Um. Every time I hear them saying this
Speaker 1: on MSNBC. Um, I laugh. Well, it's like big money
Speaker 1: in politics, only only we have big money in politics,
Speaker 1: some dark money in politics that the sorrows money doesn't count. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: go look at m like Illinois their their division of
Speaker 1: congressional districts. It's basically an octopus going out from Chicago.
Speaker 1: It looks like modern art. No, it is the Democrats.
Speaker 1: And for years, for what am I saying? For decades,
Speaker 1: Texas every four years would vote for a Republican president,
Speaker 1: and the number of Democrats in Congress it was something like,
Speaker 1: you know, three to one Democrats too, Republicans who were
Speaker 1: elected to Congress. Now that that happens from jerrymandering. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: so both sides are going to complain when the other
Speaker 1: side does it. But your question, I think is the
Speaker 1: most important question, which is and I gathered the court
Speaker 1: washed its hands of the matter, and I think that's appropriate.
Speaker 1: What standard do you use here? Whenever states passed these
Speaker 1: laws saying oh we'll have an independent commission decide this,
Speaker 1: it doesn't tend to end up all that much better. Sorry,
Speaker 1: this is just I mean, this is maybe maybe someone
Speaker 1: can persuade me otherwise, I would love to have you know,
Speaker 1: be able to to be able to stop it. But
Speaker 1: I think you just have to throw up your hands
Speaker 1: and say, this is one of the results of winning
Speaker 1: and the other cases citizenship, and what's going on with
Speaker 1: this one? Well, as much as I would like to
Speaker 1: attack Justice Roberts, having been the lonely voice in the
Speaker 1: woods warning conservatives against him when he was nominated, technically
Speaker 1: what the court found was they sent it back to
Speaker 1: the district Court, Um, saying, m this is the executive
Speaker 1: branch's rule making authority. They can make these rules, but
Speaker 1: but they have to have a you know, a rational
Speaker 1: basis for it. You have to explain your decision better.
Speaker 1: And this explanation isn't very good. So come back and
Speaker 1: give us, give us an explanation for why you want
Speaker 1: to ask this question. It could be. And again I'm
Speaker 1: not really in a mood to defend Roberts. But what
Speaker 1: what Justice Burger always did, um, because he was the
Speaker 1: chief justice of a very liberal court. Um, he'd he'd
Speaker 1: switch his vote at the last minute to vote with
Speaker 1: the majority so that he could write the opinion and
Speaker 1: not make it as crazy as it might otherwise. Had
Speaker 1: been so some of these decisions that Robert signs onto
Speaker 1: where they say, oh, he's with the liberals. With liberals,
Speaker 1: it could be him taking one for the team, so
Speaker 1: that a bad decision, well who knows um is going
Speaker 1: to be is going to be mitigated. But we can
Speaker 1: still come out of that one. Okay, obviously it makes
Speaker 1: a huge difference. Um, well, why is there such such
Speaker 1: a rejection of getting the data? And you know, another
Speaker 1: place where people tell me that I'm crazy and they
Speaker 1: say that you're crazy is on It is on the
Speaker 1: number of illegal aliens who who are in the country.
Speaker 1: I look at them, like, you really, you guys, really
Speaker 1: believe the last ten years it's been eleven We got
Speaker 1: a million this year alone at least. And that's, by
Speaker 1: the way, that's just from Central America. That's not including
Speaker 1: all the Cubans and the Benggladeshi's allays other people I
Speaker 1: see running Across' actual seen running across the border in
Speaker 1: the last six months with my own eyes. Border patrol laughs.
Speaker 1: When you say it's eleven million, they're like, yeah, right, buddy,
Speaker 1: Like we're getting thousands and thousands a day. Do the math.
Speaker 1: But but you know, how is it? The government never
Speaker 1: gets an answer here. I described as an Adios America.
Speaker 1: They're all going every report that tells you eleven million,
Speaker 1: and they've been saying roughly eleven million, you know, maybe
Speaker 1: eleven point eight to twelve point five, but right around
Speaker 1: there since the beginning of the Bush administration. So we're
Speaker 1: supposed to believe that it has not changed for fifteen
Speaker 1: years now. No, that defies plausibility. So in Adios America,
Speaker 1: what they're doing is they're going by census reports. So
Speaker 1: people who have who have crossed through thousands of miles
Speaker 1: of desert left their families these days, dragged the kid
Speaker 1: with them, stolen IDs, ripped off American workers, written in
Speaker 1: the back of a flatbed truck. Someone comes to them
Speaker 1: and says, I'm from the government. Would you fill out
Speaker 1: this survey please. We're supposed to believe that they're filling
Speaker 1: it out and they are being totally honest. That's where
Speaker 1: the eleven million figure comes from. Everyone's using the census report.
Speaker 1: So you would think everyone who is out there using
Speaker 1: the census report from Center for Immigration Studies to Pew,
Speaker 1: you'd think they'd want a better answer on this. But
Speaker 1: it matters for a lot of things. It matters for
Speaker 1: the number of congressional districts there are. It matters for
Speaker 1: federal federal programs, how much money your district gets. They
Speaker 1: have these districts called I think they call them ghost
Speaker 1: districts where there are so many illegal aliens who can't
Speaker 1: vote in a district. A congressperson is being elected by
Speaker 1: a very very small number of people. That seems like
Speaker 1: something we should want to know. Yeah, I feel like
Speaker 1: we should try to get answers about all this. But
Speaker 1: there's obviously is watering down the votes of people who
Speaker 1: don't live in those ghost districts. So it's one thing.
Speaker 1: It's it's like applying Senate rules to the House. So
Speaker 1: when the Senate, everyone understands every state gets two senators
Speaker 1: and it doesn't matter if you're a teeny tiny little
Speaker 1: Delaware or great big California. But obviously, as a consequences,
Speaker 1: someone's vote for Senate in California is not worth as
Speaker 1: much as someone's vote for Senate in um, say, Rhode
Speaker 1: Island or Delaware. Oh well, that's how the constitution works.
Speaker 1: It isn't really, it isn't a perfect democracy. It's a republic.
Speaker 1: We all know that, okay, But if if when you're
Speaker 1: jamming in illegal aliens and counting them for purposes of
Speaker 1: how of how big your congressional district is that that
Speaker 1: turns a House race into a Senate race where your vote,
Speaker 1: for example, in Maxiine Waters District heavily full of illegal
Speaker 1: illegal aliens um counts vastly more than your vote in
Speaker 1: you know, some some county that are some congressional district
Speaker 1: that's made up of all Americas. Yeah. Again, I think
Speaker 1: that this is something where we should all want the answers,
Speaker 1: but there's clear houstility. Do you think the administration didn't
Speaker 1: mess up on this one? Though? It seems like Wilbur
Speaker 1: Ross had a little bit of a mister mcgoomom in here.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure that I haven't looked at closely enough, Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm just because it seems to me like they should
Speaker 1: have known that. You know, they shouldn't write out like
Speaker 1: well this will help the Republicans and put that in memos.
Speaker 1: It's not slick, guys. They could be better. And before
Speaker 1: we let you go, I'm just wondering, how are you
Speaker 1: feeling about how do you feel about Trump these days?
Speaker 1: Now that we're actually in the election season. I'd feel
Speaker 1: a lot better if the Democrats would put up a
Speaker 1: plausible candidate to frighten Trump, because I mean, if he
Speaker 1: won't keep his central campaign promises when he has to
Speaker 1: worry about reelection, is he more likely to keep those
Speaker 1: promises when he doesn't have to worry about reelection. No,
Speaker 1: we're looking in a second term where all you'll have
Speaker 1: to worry about is or think about concern himself is
Speaker 1: making sure that Ivanka's purse business does well and you know,
Speaker 1: winning the hearts and minds of of Manhattan liberals. Though
Speaker 1: I don't think that's ever going to happen, so he
Speaker 1: may give up on that part pretty fast. But I
Speaker 1: would like i've we were we had ten seconds on
Speaker 1: the clock on election day. Now we have about a
Speaker 1: half a second to get him to fulfillless promises before
Speaker 1: the end of his first term. The Democrats, however, are
Speaker 1: really letting me down by running primarily crazy. The last
Speaker 1: night was kind of amazing. It wasn't really that it
Speaker 1: wasn't really great theater because we've heard a lot of
Speaker 1: this stuff before, but it was it was a really
Speaker 1: concentrated dose of delusion and insanity on the stage. Yeah. Yes, well,
Speaker 1: I was watching with one liberal and one moderate out here,
Speaker 1: and we all liked Tulsi Gabbard, I mean genuinely liked.
Speaker 1: And the guy for Delaney Baltimore. Yeah, Delaney. Yeah, he's
Speaker 1: he's he's a he's a normal human being. You could
Speaker 1: have I've actually interviewed him. He's a normal person you
Speaker 1: could have a conversation with. Yeah. I was kind of
Speaker 1: surprised by that. After that, the three of us totally disagreed,
Speaker 1: but all three liked those. Yeah, but delay he has
Speaker 1: has has like less chance than Betto of becoming president
Speaker 1: and Bettos chances are not good. Who is there? And
Speaker 1: I gotta ask you who is the craziest? I mean,
Speaker 1: if you if you had to just pick pure crazy
Speaker 1: from at Democrat stage tonight or last night, we'll put
Speaker 1: the whole field in play. Who's the wackiest? Um? Well,
Speaker 1: it's kind of cheating, but I think Deblasio, Yes, that
Speaker 1: is the correct as chance as Delaney. That's true. But
Speaker 1: I Deblasio is hated by liberals in Manhattan. I've done.
Speaker 1: I've tried to tell everybody I can about how he
Speaker 1: used to be Warren Wilhelm, and that just explains so
Speaker 1: much more. When they understand. Why do you say that
Speaker 1: I looked it up for them last night. I knew
Speaker 1: it was some crazy name, and that's what we were
Speaker 1: calling him throughout the debate. He didn't believe me when
Speaker 1: I first told him the freedom honey, and we call
Speaker 1: him Kaiser Vilhelm. Just so everybody, everybody remembers and call
Speaker 1: to everybody if you haven't already, buy one of her
Speaker 1: thirteen best selling books, and obviously follow her for great, funny,
Speaker 1: wonderful insights on Twitter and have fun out on the
Speaker 1: left coast. We'll talk to you soon, talk to you soon.
Speaker 1: Back all right, team, we'll be back center Booker, what
Speaker 1: would you do on day one? And this is a
Speaker 1: situation that the next president will inherit acceptable president too, Dimonazado,
Speaker 1: Los Imigrant says, in acceptable vote one day one. I
Speaker 1: will make sure that number one, we end the ice
Speaker 1: policies and the customs and border policies are violating the
Speaker 1: human rights. This economy has got to work for everyone,
Speaker 1: and right now we know that it isn't, and it's
Speaker 1: going to take all of us coming together to make
Speaker 1: sure that it does. Necessit almost include Goda, Persona and Alexia.
Speaker 1: That seems almost include Goda persona in West Democacia. Now
Speaker 1: I know, I know a last Branio personally, right, I
Speaker 1: took French, German, Arabic. I speak very little of any
Speaker 1: of those things now a little bit of French just
Speaker 1: because the restaurants. Um, I mean, I guess I can
Speaker 1: go into a German restaurant and orders the Schnitzel. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's about where I or the car tough, which is
Speaker 1: a potato. But Mike, the pandering last night was world class,
Speaker 1: I have to say. And I heard people say that
Speaker 1: who do speak Spanish? That the Corey Booker speaking Spanish?
Speaker 1: You're like, ah, what is he? It's not quite may
Speaker 1: of Bloomberg have Last Spaniel, but it's like pretty bad. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he got off to a shaky start there. It didn't
Speaker 1: get in much fat. Yeah, Corey Booker all of a
Speaker 1: sudden was having flashbacks the freshman year Spanish one on
Speaker 1: one or whatever. It was like necesito. You know, it's
Speaker 1: all still of Booker looking at like a side angle
Speaker 1: of Booker looking at Beta when he was speaking Spanish,
Speaker 1: and he was like, man, you're stealing my thunder. I
Speaker 1: mean it's like one after they do this, I gotta
Speaker 1: say uh. Credit credit to Ben Shapiro, You're one of
Speaker 1: my favorites. Last night he wrote that, uh, just wait
Speaker 1: until Elizabeth Warren starts speaking Cherokee. That was well, that
Speaker 1: was well played. That was well played. Yeah, no, I
Speaker 1: mean it's it's amazing. I mean they there was so
Speaker 1: much last night that was unsurprising. But still even when
Speaker 1: you expect some of this, even when you think they're
Speaker 1: going to do this stuff, when they actually do it,
Speaker 1: you find yourself going, oh my gosh. And then there
Speaker 1: was that we didn't get this beforecause it wasn't all
Speaker 1: that important, but the you know, NBC had a little
Speaker 1: bit of a little of a glitch, which is surprising
Speaker 1: for these big fancy networks play for is there a
Speaker 1: role for the federal government in order to play in
Speaker 1: order to get these guns off the streets? What's happening?
Speaker 1: We are hearing our colleagues audio. I yeah, if the
Speaker 1: if the control of them can turn off the mics
Speaker 1: of our previous moderators. You know, we prepare everything. Guess what, guys,
Speaker 1: we are gonna take a quick break. We're gonna get
Speaker 1: this technical uh situation fix. We will be right back.
Speaker 1: I gotta tell you, Mike, of all the nightmares. That's
Speaker 1: something in the media business has. It's not that like
Speaker 1: glitch has happened, but whenever you have something like that
Speaker 1: in an election where you had uh what was it,
Speaker 1: I mean, starting an election, a debate, gosh election. I
Speaker 1: think they said twenty million people watched last night. Some
Speaker 1: crazy it was eleven or twenty. I forget it's milk whatever,
Speaker 1: double digit millions people watching this thing. And the most
Speaker 1: terrifying thing we work in the media business is that
Speaker 1: you get caught on an open mica situation like this.
Speaker 1: We're just like, oh, man, like I shouldn't be eaten
Speaker 1: all those beans, you know, like you just say something
Speaker 1: really not. I mean it could be a lot worse
Speaker 1: than that, obviously too, but like, you know, that's that's
Speaker 1: what keeps me up at night. The one day I'm
Speaker 1: gonna be at some event with millions and millions of
Speaker 1: people listening, and I'm gonna just take that microphone into
Speaker 1: the men's room and all of a sudden, the whole
Speaker 1: country knows me a lot better than they ever intended to.
Speaker 1: Like Leslie Nielsen and Naked Gun. Oh yeah, oh it
Speaker 1: happened to my old colleague happened on Glenn's radio show,
Speaker 1: really and it was one of the most watched YouTube
Speaker 1: clips that I think we ever had. When I was
Speaker 1: at the Blaze where Jeffy, who's a fantastic, the nicest,
Speaker 1: best dude, great guy, Jeffe who's a part of Glenn's show,
Speaker 1: I believe it was. I believe it was Jeffie. I
Speaker 1: don't think it was Stu, And if Stu heard that,
Speaker 1: he'd probably throw something at me. But I think it
Speaker 1: was Jeffie went into the because the bathrooms in Dallas
Speaker 1: or and yeah, it was. It was a toll nak
Speaker 1: and you heard the whole like and then the you know,
Speaker 1: the relief going on the whole thing. I'm not saying
Speaker 1: he wasn't exactly given the like you know, you know,
Speaker 1: like kind of like leading into it too much or whatever,
Speaker 1: but he relieved it. And that's everyone's, you know, everyone's
Speaker 1: nightmare in this business is that that will happen. You'll
Speaker 1: get caught on the open mic and then nothing bad
Speaker 1: would said. So there they were lucky with that. But
Speaker 1: speaking of Mike's you know that the one of CNNs.
Speaker 1: He is in fact CNN's chief political correspondence. So the
Speaker 1: person that they put forward, you see him on TV.
Speaker 1: He's actually on He's on Blitzer Show today, He's on
Speaker 1: all the time. He was fired from Yahoo for being
Speaker 1: caught on an open mic saying that Mitt Romney is
Speaker 1: happy to have a part I don't know if it
Speaker 1: was Romney or the Republicans. I think it's the Republicans
Speaker 1: are happy to throw a party while black people are drowning.
Speaker 1: That was the quote he said. And he is now
Speaker 1: the chief political analyst at CNN number one, and they're
Speaker 1: probably paying this guy a million dollars a year to
Speaker 1: go on CNN and give democratic talking points. And when
Speaker 1: you do that stuff in that world, it's a it's
Speaker 1: a badge of honor and a race. Absolutely right. He
Speaker 1: accidentally took one for the team. And I always say
Speaker 1: this libs. Libs take care of their own, and Republicans
Speaker 1: are always like, oh, well, look whatever the free market
Speaker 1: will bear. It's like, okay, well we get, like I
Speaker 1: was saying before, but dhs, we get blacklisted, we get
Speaker 1: I have a friend right now. He's trying to get jobs.
Speaker 1: He's he was cree. He was a creative on the
Speaker 1: TV side and worked at networks that are mostly reality
Speaker 1: TV based, worked in a right wing network for a
Speaker 1: little bit and is now trying to dip his toe
Speaker 1: back and doing some of the other stuff. And he
Speaker 1: says that an interview. After interview, they say, oh, you
Speaker 1: worked for that like conservative media entity. Yeah, I think
Speaker 1: the position is filled. I mean they just they're not
Speaker 1: even trying to hide it. I mean they just have
Speaker 1: no interest in helping them out at all. So that's
Speaker 1: that's not surprised. But yeah, NBC had that little technical
Speaker 1: meltdown last night, which was for me, it just gets you,
Speaker 1: you think for a moment, Oh my gosh, just please
Speaker 1: don't ever let it happen where I start, you know,
Speaker 1: rocking out at the urinal and the mic is still on.
Speaker 1: You live in this in this world. The microphone we
Speaker 1: all although I guess we all kind of carry microphones
Speaker 1: on us all the time. And paranoia is something that's
Speaker 1: good for all of us to have. Yeah, that's why
Speaker 1: whenever you tell a joke, you got to check over
Speaker 1: both shoulders before you tell anybody what the joke is
Speaker 1: going to be. Mike, who won the debate last night?
Speaker 1: Oh man, I would probably say Tulsa Gabbert. I think
Speaker 1: so too. I think she came off looking looking. I mean,
Speaker 1: she probably, she's kind. She hasn't done anything in the
Speaker 1: Congress for like whatever, the almost twenty years she's been
Speaker 1: in there. But she she came across pretty well despite
Speaker 1: as fact she is the word's service too much. But
Speaker 1: that's true. Oh wait, we got some other Oh that's right,
Speaker 1: Central Park five. And Coulter said she'd come back and
Speaker 1: talk to us. We let her, We let her take
Speaker 1: a coffee break, she'd come back and tell us what
Speaker 1: is the truth of the Central Park five case. We're
Speaker 1: not gonna want to miss this er are going to
Speaker 1: have quite the discussion about it. Stay right there. Who
Speaker 1: are you in the park with las? I's got a loss.
Speaker 1: Where did you see the lady? One lady, the female charger.
Speaker 1: It was severely beaten and raped. Every blackmail who was
Speaker 1: in the park last night is a suspect. I need
Speaker 1: all of them. That's going on. My son, your son
Speaker 1: was involved in Central Park. But now they saw you
Speaker 1: rap the lady. Didn't see a lady or hit anyone.
Speaker 1: I don't see any lady, Kevin. I want to see
Speaker 1: my son right now, right now. Whatever they said, I did.
Speaker 1: All right, So that's the trailer from this when they
Speaker 1: see us Netflix show that I've been telling you about
Speaker 1: that I watched that I think is an absurdity, that
Speaker 1: is rewriting history. Got somebody who was actually dug into
Speaker 1: the details of the case. Uh is one of the
Speaker 1: few people that I know that'll openly say that this
Speaker 1: is all just nonsense and that these guys were actually guilty.
Speaker 1: I agree with her, but I want to bring her
Speaker 1: on because at least I'm not the only one we got.
Speaker 1: Ann called to everybody, author of fourteen best selling books.
Speaker 1: She's incredible. You all know that. And thank you so
Speaker 1: much for joining us. Thank you good to be here,
Speaker 1: Buck Sexton. All righty, let's just get right to this. Um.
Speaker 1: Have you first of all, have you seen the Netflix documentary.
Speaker 1: It's on a documentary Netflix show. I probably should, but
Speaker 1: I do enough hate watching watching MSNBC all day. Oh
Speaker 1: I agree, all right, fair enough, but you know what
Speaker 1: the so I want to run past you some of
Speaker 1: what the the talking points are about why these guys
Speaker 1: are are industry at the Central Park five. They got
Speaker 1: over forty million dollars from the City of New York.
Speaker 1: Everyone's saying things like, Okay, let's start with this one,
Speaker 1: and they've been exonerated by DNA. Why is that not true? Um,
Speaker 1: it's hard to flash back now to a time when
Speaker 1: DNA was not was well described as a novel science.
Speaker 1: DNA was just starting to be used in criminal cases.
Speaker 1: It really didn't come into use until around regular use
Speaker 1: until two thousand and one. So it was only a
Speaker 1: year before the Central Park rape took place that DNA
Speaker 1: was used in the first in the first criminal case
Speaker 1: in any case in America. It was a case down
Speaker 1: in Florida. It wasn't enough in the o J case.
Speaker 1: New York State didn't have a database. It wasn't I
Speaker 1: don't think it was even clear at that point whether
Speaker 1: it could be used in New York State. Yet it
Speaker 1: was being described as this wacky radical thing. And you know,
Speaker 1: I mean thing to yourself. There have been a lot
Speaker 1: of crimes that were solved before two thousand and one.
Speaker 1: We may all you know, I love forensic files. It's
Speaker 1: really fun to totally nail somebody who had gotten away
Speaker 1: with it scott free before people had before they had DNA.
Speaker 1: But crimes were solved, and in fact, for New Yorkers.
Speaker 1: There was a crime just a few years before, remember
Speaker 1: the Preppy murder case. Oh yeah, Robert Chambers. He actually
Speaker 1: went to my school. Oh really just for eleven. Yes,
Speaker 1: he murdered her in Central Park after meeting her in
Speaker 1: Dorian's Red Hand, and it was solved in the exact
Speaker 1: same way. New York City police are very very good.
Speaker 1: They get a little bit of circumstantial evidence, they present
Speaker 1: it to the defendant, and the defendant ends up confessing
Speaker 1: That's exactly what Robert Chambers did. No one has any
Speaker 1: doubts about his guilt. And the same thing happened with
Speaker 1: the five Central Park um well convicted and then quote
Speaker 1: exonerated Central Park rapists. There were about thirty seven, um,
Speaker 1: mostly teenagers, mostly under under the age of sixteen. UM.
Speaker 1: They were on vacation, just as they called it, wilding
Speaker 1: through Central Park that night. They were there's there's there's
Speaker 1: no question. And they attacked a lot of people, which
Speaker 1: I think is very you know, and that even in
Speaker 1: that trailer, every blackmail in the park is a suspect,
Speaker 1: that woman, says the actress. But actually the suspects that
Speaker 1: they rounded up were people who had attacked numerous people
Speaker 1: including putting one of the hospital beat him in the
Speaker 1: head with a pipe, almost killed him. Yeah. Yeah, there were,
Speaker 1: Um I think at least one was knocked unconscious. No,
Speaker 1: two were knocked unconscious, one and fractured skull. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they ended up with permanent injuries. Um. No one denies that.
Speaker 1: I mean even the the the UM person in the
Speaker 1: DA's office, UM assistant DA Ryan, I forget what her
Speaker 1: first name was. She was assigned to the case by
Speaker 1: Robert Morgan. Though the Manhattan Dam, by the way it is,
Speaker 1: it is um pretty well established by the police and
Speaker 1: DA's office. That Ryan the one who quote wrote the
Speaker 1: report exonerating the five hated Linda Fair scene. So of
Speaker 1: all people in the office to assign this case to, hey,
Speaker 1: could you look over this case, you know, your arch
Speaker 1: rivals crowning achievement and see how she did. Anyway, even
Speaker 1: in her report she totally admitted, Yeah, they did all
Speaker 1: these other crimes in the park. So these kids were
Speaker 1: running through, they were about thirty seven of them. They
Speaker 1: were all brought in there. Nine one one calls going
Speaker 1: wild to the police as people are coming out of
Speaker 1: the park covered in blood, being chased, having rocks thrown
Speaker 1: at them, and so on and so forth. So the
Speaker 1: police descend on Central Park arrest a bunch of them.
Speaker 1: Over the next twenty four hours, about thirty seven are
Speaker 1: brought in. So for one thing, you have to you
Speaker 1: have to wonder and then just ask them questions and
Speaker 1: waited to see what they said, who they implicated, and
Speaker 1: slowly it narrowed down, narrowed down. Um. In one case,
Speaker 1: Um a policeman, UM, I mean, this is all within
Speaker 1: the law. You're allowed to use little trickery in questioning
Speaker 1: a suspect. You don't, you don't have to. Everything doesn't
Speaker 1: have to be the truth. What you can't do, according
Speaker 1: to the law, is say something to a defendant that
Speaker 1: would be likely to get an innocent person to confess. Um.
Speaker 1: So you can't say, um, um, you know if you
Speaker 1: confess to this, now just sign on the dotted line,
Speaker 1: you can go. Which is I've seen this alleged by
Speaker 1: some of the defendant's families that they were promised, Oh,
Speaker 1: but they said they'd be able to go home if
Speaker 1: they just admitted to raping and nearly murdering a woman.
Speaker 1: I don't know why anyone anyone would think that, But no,
Speaker 1: there was no evidence that the police said such a thing.
Speaker 1: There was one policeman who said, I think it was
Speaker 1: to Raymond Santana um said, um, you know there were
Speaker 1: we found fingerprints on the joggers uh pants. So if
Speaker 1: they're you're you're going down for this rape. That's a classic.
Speaker 1: I mean, anyone who's ever watched Law and Order would say,
Speaker 1: that's what cops do all the time. I actually work
Speaker 1: with cops and they would tell me that's what they
Speaker 1: would do all the time. Right. It's actually very clever,
Speaker 1: and it got to the desired result. Santana immediately confessed. Now,
Speaker 1: why would you confess if you weren't involved? Great, check
Speaker 1: the fingerprints that are not going to be mine, So
Speaker 1: that would not leave an innocent person to confess. Incidentally,
Speaker 1: I also I also found the one who had had
Speaker 1: the scratch under his eye, who initially told the detective,
Speaker 1: and this is all in the court transcript. Yeah, they
Speaker 1: told the detective, well, your partner did that, and he goes, well,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna bring my partner in here. And by the way,
Speaker 1: why would a cops scratch him with a fingernail under
Speaker 1: the eye. Right, I'm not saying cops don't ever abuse people,
Speaker 1: but they don't do the old scratching you under the
Speaker 1: eye routine. That's just bizarre. And then as soon as
Speaker 1: he said he's going to bring his partner in, the
Speaker 1: guy says, yeah, like I just grabbed the lady's breast
Speaker 1: or something like. He just sets them crazy. Yes, he
Speaker 1: had at least three different stories for the scratch on
Speaker 1: his face. First he said it was his cat, but
Speaker 1: did it. Then he said it was the policeman. Then
Speaker 1: they said we're going to bring the policeman in and
Speaker 1: see who's telling a more plausible story. And eventually he said, yeah,
Speaker 1: it was it was a jog or so, you know,
Speaker 1: the confessions went the way confessions and these things tend
Speaker 1: to go. They all minimized their own role. They all
Speaker 1: said they were there. They'd point to this one or
Speaker 1: that one doing the raping and just say I held
Speaker 1: her legs down. They told many other many of their
Speaker 1: friends and acquaintances who, by the way, when they were
Speaker 1: reinterviewed thirteen years later, when this allegedly exonerating DNA evidence
Speaker 1: came out, most of the rest of it couldn't be tested.
Speaker 1: There was just this one spot, and they always knew
Speaker 1: that that one of the rapists had gotten away that
Speaker 1: these five weren't all of them, But when they reinterviewed
Speaker 1: the friends and acquaintances of various of the five whom
Speaker 1: they had told. One one testified that night in the
Speaker 1: park that one of the five said, we just raped
Speaker 1: a girl. Another one overheard two of them saying laughing
Speaker 1: about we made it a woman bleed. Um. Two of
Speaker 1: them said these are witnesses, friends and acquaintances that the
Speaker 1: next day, UM, I forget which one it was, Corey
Speaker 1: wives maybe came up to them and said, you heard
Speaker 1: about that attack in the park last night. That was
Speaker 1: us and one of the best ones, I think, because
Speaker 1: it's kind of funny. Um. The sister of one of
Speaker 1: the friends of a friend of one of the five,
Speaker 1: UM said he called the house and she and obviously
Speaker 1: this was all over the news. He called from Rikers
Speaker 1: Island and she, you know, yelled at him and said
Speaker 1: what are you doing? And he said, um, Um, I
Speaker 1: didn't do it. I just held her legs down. And
Speaker 1: then he named another of the five, saying while he
Speaker 1: effed her, I mean, and what the so so people think?
Speaker 1: And you know this that you and I are crazy,
Speaker 1: right because this is now, this is now finished. They're exonerated.
Speaker 1: It's it's it's like racist to believe that these guys
Speaker 1: actually did it. I mean, it's definitely not racist to
Speaker 1: believe that they were running around and beating people almost
Speaker 1: to death in the park for no reason. But let's
Speaker 1: just put that out of side, because that's all admitted
Speaker 1: and on the record. But beyond that with this, uh,
Speaker 1: there are people that think, what do they say to you?
Speaker 1: Like if you were to show up but you know
Speaker 1: the well it's consider to build mar show, but you
Speaker 1: know one of these places wherever it's gonna a boo
Speaker 1: and yell and tell you that you're wrong? What's there?
Speaker 1: Is it just the DNA's onneration? I mean, is this
Speaker 1: just chanting stupidity in your face? Like what do they say? Um,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean you've seen this this Netflix thing,
Speaker 1: so I guess that's probably what the uneducated think think
Speaker 1: is the truth? I mean, and just you know, they
Speaker 1: cast a kid as Richardson, who I've looked at all
Speaker 1: the mugshots at these guys and and I've I've watched
Speaker 1: the interrogation and the confessions that you know, the videos
Speaker 1: are out there people can see them. The kid they
Speaker 1: cast as Richardson can't be older than eleven years old
Speaker 1: and is crying the whole time. And if you see
Speaker 1: who these kids I mean, I'm abe six foot tall,
Speaker 1: two hundred pound mail. These five kids who are fifteen
Speaker 1: years old, if they came after me on the reservoir,
Speaker 1: a part of Central Park, then I know very well
Speaker 1: I don't think it would have gone well for me.
Speaker 1: And right right though, I will say something I mentioned
Speaker 1: in one of my columns, Um, I read through all
Speaker 1: of the confessions. I have a chapter on this in
Speaker 1: my book. UM, I think it's guilty or godly, it's
Speaker 1: about it. It's in demonic about um group think and mobs.
Speaker 1: And here was a physical mob, and then you have
Speaker 1: the medium mob deciding let's undermine people's faith in the
Speaker 1: criminal justice system by coming along thirteen years later and
Speaker 1: instead of instead of two multi ethnic juries. Oh and
Speaker 1: there was a six week preliminary hearing in this case,
Speaker 1: six weeks to do nothing but attack the confessions. UM.
Speaker 1: Testimony was put on, parents testified. UM. I gather a
Speaker 1: lot of the claims being made. I mean, just from
Speaker 1: that trailer you just played for me, where's my son?
Speaker 1: Get my son out there. There was only one of
Speaker 1: the five who was ever interrogated without a parent or
Speaker 1: or adult guardian present, and that was I forget which
Speaker 1: one he gave them. I think may Vin Santana. He
Speaker 1: gave them the cops a fake ID and claimed he
Speaker 1: was sixteen. Well, okay, he can be questioned without under
Speaker 1: the law, he can be questioned without a parent. Um.
Speaker 1: He wasn't questioned very long before his mother showed up
Speaker 1: and said, no, he's just fifteen. Instantly the interrogation stopped.
Speaker 1: All further interrogation went forward with a parent present. So
Speaker 1: not one of them confessed without being in the presence
Speaker 1: of a parent. What I was about to say was
Speaker 1: having read through the confessions and everything being written down,
Speaker 1: and what was going on? Um? What? What? What kind
Speaker 1: of his Particularly depressing about this is that some of them,
Speaker 1: not all of them, but some of them had really
Speaker 1: lovely parents who came to their sons and said tell
Speaker 1: the truth and face the consequences, and and you know,
Speaker 1: would criticize their sons. One father came out. I forget
Speaker 1: which son came out After UM talked to the cops,
Speaker 1: went back in and talked to his son saying, look,
Speaker 1: the cops don't leave you, and neither do I. Just
Speaker 1: tell the truth. So what I found interesting about this
Speaker 1: was I do think some of them probably, I mean,
Speaker 1: I haven't been a thirteen year old boy, but they
Speaker 1: have raging hormones. They're in a group. I was in
Speaker 1: the middle of writing a book about group behavior and
Speaker 1: how mobs behave, and people will do things in a
Speaker 1: mob that they would never do, never do on their own.
Speaker 1: They each bookuse they were juveniles. They each only served
Speaker 1: about five years. They could have taken the consequences and
Speaker 1: emerged better man and have learned from their parents who
Speaker 1: told them tell the truth. But no, then these lefties
Speaker 1: in the media has come forward and say, no, just
Speaker 1: lie about Oh and you got to see the Netflix thing.
Speaker 1: They actually have a detective take one of the parents
Speaker 1: out in the hallway and say tell your kid to
Speaker 1: lie basically or else we're going to talk about your
Speaker 1: criminal record with your boss and get you fired from
Speaker 1: your job. That actually happens in the show, like, oh,
Speaker 1: for Pete's sake, True, this whole thing is just a fantasy.
Speaker 1: It's outraged. I mean, are you at you know, are
Speaker 1: you at Jay level guilt certainty with the Center Park
Speaker 1: five at what level certainty or j Yes, okay, I
Speaker 1: agree with the multi ethnic juries, the judges and the
Speaker 1: appellate courts that repeatedly found them guilty and upheld it.
Speaker 1: This is all just a medium mob and an aging
Speaker 1: by the way, Um, Mayor Bloomberg isn't exactly you know,
Speaker 1: my brand of right wing conservatives. Um. He crossed his
Speaker 1: arms and the entire time he was in office, refused
Speaker 1: to settle with them, saying nope, let's take it to trial.
Speaker 1: Because the city attorney said, we're gonna win this at trial.
Speaker 1: We are absolutely going to win this. It was one
Speaker 1: of it was the giveaway, the forty million dollar giveaway
Speaker 1: that that New Yorkers are paying for here. That was
Speaker 1: just for de Blasio to get the black vote. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's all true, all right, everybody, And Culter thirteen bestsellers,
Speaker 1: fourteen probably on the way, any hints in anything going
Speaker 1: on not at some moment and enjoying life until we're doomed,
Speaker 1: but and colder. Thank you so much, thank you. This
Speaker 1: is actually an economy that's hurting small businesses and not
Speaker 1: allowing them to compete. We've had an industrial policy in
Speaker 1: the United States for decades now, and it's basically been
Speaker 1: let giant corporations do whatever to do. Corporations have exactly
Speaker 1: one loyalty, and that is to profits. For all the
Speaker 1: American citizens out there who feel you're falling behind, to
Speaker 1: feel the American dreams not working for you. The immigrants
Speaker 1: didn't do that to you. The big corporations did that
Speaker 1: to you. Ah. Yes, So much of the demogoguery that
Speaker 1: we see from democrats and politics round this issue of
Speaker 1: big corporations. Is it so funny you think of big
Speaker 1: corporations and what comes to mind? Oh, I don't know, Facebook, Google, ge, Comcast.
Speaker 1: You can go to this list all run by libs,
Speaker 1: all corporate culture, Goldman Sachs very liberal in its culture now,
Speaker 1: very PC and progressive, and you know all about you know,
Speaker 1: increasing transgender hiring quotas and all this stuff. I mean
Speaker 1: this is but but big corporations, I would say, the
Speaker 1: bad guys. You never dig into well, which which corporations?
Speaker 1: Oh okay, so the coke industries they think is bad,
Speaker 1: anything else they think is bad. What companies are are
Speaker 1: so hated? I mean the companies that are providing services
Speaker 1: and products for people that make their lives easier and better.
Speaker 1: You know, it is the capitalist impulse that has brought
Speaker 1: so much prosperity to this country. But and I couldn't
Speaker 1: believe this, Mike. There was you know, Eric Bowling, who
Speaker 1: I see a fair amount down in DC. We we
Speaker 1: both we hang out at the Trump International Hotel, and
Speaker 1: you know, we might go a little shot for shot
Speaker 1: and the tequila drinking. I don't know, maybe you know,
Speaker 1: maybe yes, maybe no. I can neither confirm nor deny,
Speaker 1: but you know, Eric's Eric's a nice guy. And he
Speaker 1: was down in Florida. And one of the young Turk's correspondence,
Speaker 1: could you see this Casparian. As soon as and and
Speaker 1: she started, she started saying that, so that Venezuela, it's
Speaker 1: not even that Venezuela is not representative of socialism. Her
Speaker 1: line is that it's not socialism that caused the problems
Speaker 1: in Venezuela. They will never learn. They actively make sure
Speaker 1: that they will never learn, never gets better, never improves.
Speaker 1: They still want to cling to this fiction and saying, dude, socialism,
Speaker 1: socialm doesn't work, folks. And if you're listening to the show,
Speaker 1: you know that. But socialism A bad idea. There you go,
Speaker 1: that's the less of the day socialism. Yeah, it's a
Speaker 1: bad idea. All right, we got a big hour three
Speaker 1: coming up here in just a moment. We're talking Iran.
Speaker 1: We're talking about women's equality in pay when it comes
Speaker 1: to soccer. Stay with me, women's soccer and the fight
Speaker 1: for equal pay. Oh my, here we go. So the
Speaker 1: Women's World Cup is going on. I know this is soccer,
Speaker 1: and I'm guessing I fired to do a poll of
Speaker 1: this audience. I think about five percent of the audience
Speaker 1: might care about the Women's World Cup. I think that's
Speaker 1: I could be wrong, it could be four percent, but
Speaker 1: it's it's definitely not a lot of the But the
Speaker 1: women's national team has decided to make itself very political,
Speaker 1: right They've sued the national what they through the US
Speaker 1: Soccer Federation whatever it's called, for equal pay, and as
Speaker 1: as I as I like to tell everyone, they're not
Speaker 1: really looking for equal pay, because equal pay would be
Speaker 1: getting remunerated based upon the ability you have to generate money,
Speaker 1: and that's not what's happening here, because they are being
Speaker 1: paid based on their ability to generate money through ratings
Speaker 1: and sponsorships. They want to be paid more for the
Speaker 1: same for a lesser amount of eyeballs. They want to
Speaker 1: be paid more than they should for lesser viewing numbers
Speaker 1: than what men get paid for the same for the
Speaker 1: exact same activity, which is soccer, which is a sport.
Speaker 1: We all know the rules, but now there's some controversy here.
Speaker 1: You have pretty sure, Mike, how do we say it?
Speaker 1: Megan rep Repino? Yes, Megan Repino, Megan Repino. She Mike
Speaker 1: is a real American, so he knows sports, and because
Speaker 1: he has to work on a new show, he even
Speaker 1: knows women's soccer a little bit. Congrats her. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: so what she said something? She said something mean about
Speaker 1: because the way I think everyone thinks the women are
Speaker 1: gonna win the World Cup, they're beating they beat Thailand
Speaker 1: like seventy five to zero or something crazy. Everyone's like, oh,
Speaker 1: because there might be a gold differential at the end.
Speaker 1: I think they could have stopped before they got the
Speaker 1: double digits. I'll be honest with you. You know that
Speaker 1: it wasn't really necessary to do that, but here you go.
Speaker 1: She said, we bleeped this out right because she needs
Speaker 1: to be bleeped. Yes, he's a naughty, naughty mouth. She
Speaker 1: said this play this is this is Women's World Cup
Speaker 1: player US national player Megan Repino, play eighteen. Are you
Speaker 1: excited to no not going to the White House? That
Speaker 1: we're not going to be invited? Did you? Says she
Speaker 1: won't be invited. She obviously cursed there, and like, I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna pretend like I'm some some wilted flower or
Speaker 1: something because she cursed. I mean, people curse even occasionally.
Speaker 1: Even I use salty language in private. People who know
Speaker 1: me know. But she is apologized for the potty mouth,
Speaker 1: but not for the sentiment that the women's team should
Speaker 1: not go or that at least she would not go
Speaker 1: to the world she would not go to the White
Speaker 1: House if they win the World Cup. What did Trump?
Speaker 1: I'm sure said he said something about this, right, He
Speaker 1: tweeted at her and said, hold on a second, here
Speaker 1: we go. Trump said, uh, Rusia, Mike, do we know
Speaker 1: what he said about Rapino? Probably something about how they
Speaker 1: should focus on winning. I think right, something like that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's exactly what he said. But he was something like that.
Speaker 1: He's like it was on his radar and he fired
Speaker 1: back at him. Yeah, okay, I mean, it's the equivalent
Speaker 1: of Trump said, Okay, here we go. Women's soccer player
Speaker 1: m Pino, just stayd This is Trump's Twitter that she's
Speaker 1: not going to the fing White House if we win.
Speaker 1: Other than the NBA, which now refuses to call owners owners,
Speaker 1: please explain that I just got criminal justice reform pass.
Speaker 1: Black unemployment is at the lowest in our country's history,
Speaker 1: and the poverty index is also best number ever. Leagues
Speaker 1: and teams love coming to the White House. I'm a
Speaker 1: big fan of the American team and women's soccer, but
Speaker 1: Meghan shouldn't win first before she talks finished the job.
Speaker 1: We haven't yet invited Megan to the team, but I'm
Speaker 1: now inviting v team win or lose. Oh, call it
Speaker 1: her bluff. Look at this. Megan should never disrespect our country,
Speaker 1: the White House, or our flag, especially since so much
Speaker 1: has been done for her and the team. Be proud
Speaker 1: of the flag you wear. The US is doing great, Mike,
Speaker 1: how'd she get on the radar? She was like an
Speaker 1: She's like the Kaepernick of soccer. Right. It sounds like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's too much about her if I
Speaker 1: see that seems to be the vocal leader of that team,
Speaker 1: and I love how she said right there, like how
Speaker 1: Trump said those things. I bet you if you get
Speaker 1: asked her when her top ten things, all the problems
Speaker 1: that she has as whatever they are, that Trump has
Speaker 1: already fixed them. I guarantee it. He fixes all the
Speaker 1: problems that Democrats are now complaining about and he's still
Speaker 1: you know, hate them. Here's what she said after the
Speaker 1: Trump tweet played nineteen. I stand by the comments that
Speaker 1: I made about not wanting to go to the White House.
Speaker 1: But I think obviously entering with a lot of passion
Speaker 1: considering how much you know, time and effort and pride
Speaker 1: we take in the platform that we have and using
Speaker 1: it for good and for leaving the game in a
Speaker 1: better place and hopefully the world in a better place.
Speaker 1: I don't think that I would want to go, and
Speaker 1: I would encourage my teammates that think hard about lending
Speaker 1: that platform or having that co opted by an administration
Speaker 1: that doesn't feel the same way and doesn't fight for
Speaker 1: the same things that we fight for. So I'll just
Speaker 1: leave it at that. Look, she's perfectly within her rights
Speaker 1: to not go. Okay, She's perfectly within her rights to
Speaker 1: decide she doesn't want to go the White House. That's fine.
Speaker 1: You know, this is not despite what the Libs say,
Speaker 1: America has not turned into a fascist state because of Trump.
Speaker 1: And you know we're not all everyone's not going to
Speaker 1: be arched off into camps or anything. I mean, as
Speaker 1: crazy as they are, we do still have the first memper.
Speaker 1: She doesn't want to go, doesn't want to go. But
Speaker 1: I can also, under that same first Amendment say just
Speaker 1: what an ungrateful punk? And this is part of a
Speaker 1: broader issue that you see, and he've been seeing it
Speaker 1: for years now. In sports, finally, I think Mike didn't
Speaker 1: ESPN start to say, you know, maybe we should just
Speaker 1: do sports and not have people doing political commentary. Didn't
Speaker 1: that happen recently? Yeah, they actually have a new CEO
Speaker 1: there now. Though their old guy got busted for doing
Speaker 1: coke or something. They kicked him out. New guy came in,
Speaker 1: was like, cut out the political stuff, let's get back
Speaker 1: to sports. And they sort of have seemed to turn
Speaker 1: a little bit of a corner, but I still don't
Speaker 1: watch them. I think all this is really important. I
Speaker 1: think that having places where Americans can share in what's
Speaker 1: going on, enjoy something, and put the politics aside. I
Speaker 1: think it's really an important part of civil society. I
Speaker 1: think this is, you know, we're just gonna be at
Speaker 1: each other's throats if we can't have and you know,
Speaker 1: social media is just if we if we can't have
Speaker 1: some safe Oh gosh, i's gonna say safe spaces, space
Speaker 1: is safe from politics. How about that safe spaces? Buck?
Speaker 1: Do you want a safe space? Do you want a
Speaker 1: blank kye? I want a black kie? I want a bottle?
Speaker 1: So you know, there it is. Um, we'll have to see.
Speaker 1: And that's what that's what bothering me. There's just nothing
Speaker 1: that you can ever turn on now on the TV
Speaker 1: and think, oh, this will be free of I feel
Speaker 1: like the well now the weather channel has even got
Speaker 1: politics because of climate change stuff. You never can get
Speaker 1: free of it now. And the women's national team, look,
Speaker 1: I'm I'm all about America. So any national team, it
Speaker 1: can be the national shuffleboard team. I'm like, yeah, that's right,
Speaker 1: go go rectos. FOURIGN fools like, go do your thing.
Speaker 1: And I want to cheer loudly for the um women's
Speaker 1: national soccer team. But two things I think they're at
Speaker 1: I think they're a little bratty with the whole equal
Speaker 1: pay thing because it's not equal pay. They want unequal pay.
Speaker 1: If the ratings were hired, they get paid more money.
Speaker 1: This is a business. Yeah, you know, this is not
Speaker 1: It's not about fairness. You know, I played, I played
Speaker 1: high school soccer. Should I have been paid a million
Speaker 1: dollars a year because I played soccer and other people
Speaker 1: play soccer and they make a lot of money. No,
Speaker 1: because they were like fifteen parents at my soccer games. Yeah,
Speaker 1: does not justify the revenue that. Yeah, you see what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Yeah, on your point on that buck, I'm
Speaker 1: just looking at some data here and there. Their numbers
Speaker 1: actually for this World Cup are slightly up from the
Speaker 1: last World Cup. But they really have a problem between
Speaker 1: World Cups on getting any eyeballs at all. But on
Speaker 1: it says here, this is from the APE. A recent
Speaker 1: match in Italy drew forty thousand fans lord partly by
Speaker 1: free tickets. So they got to give tickets away to
Speaker 1: get people to go. Yeah, not good, not good, folks.
Speaker 1: So everything is political, which is annoying, and women claiming
Speaker 1: they want equal pay when they actually want a better deal.
Speaker 1: They want unequal pay. I also find that pretty annoying.
Speaker 1: And and here we are, you know, we've got the
Speaker 1: president United States. Instead of being able to root for
Speaker 1: this national team like we all want to, he's got
Speaker 1: to deal with her saying she wouldn't go to the
Speaker 1: White House or whatever. You know, just check yourself before
Speaker 1: you wreck yourself. Sometimes some of these nineties phrases really
Speaker 1: come come in handy, and I just wish that there
Speaker 1: would be a You know, this is true so many
Speaker 1: entertainers now and all these people because of social media,
Speaker 1: they all think they have to be woke and they
Speaker 1: feel this pressure or really this I don't even think
Speaker 1: it's pressure a lot of time. I think it's just
Speaker 1: they can't help themselves because they're narcissistic that they need
Speaker 1: to be involved in political discussions. But a lot of
Speaker 1: people that are famous are also idiots at least when
Speaker 1: it comes to politics, and they should probably just keep
Speaker 1: to themselves and what is it, you know, just shut
Speaker 1: up and saying I think people say that would be
Speaker 1: nice in this case, be quiet and play some soccer.
Speaker 1: We'll be right back. You are now entering the Freedom
Speaker 1: Hontical Operations Center. All the programs strictly need to know
Speaker 1: Team Buck is cleared and ready for the Buck brief.
Speaker 1: I'm not looking for war, and if the there is,
Speaker 1: it'll be obliteration like you've never seen before. But I'm
Speaker 1: not looking to do that. But you can't have a
Speaker 1: nuclear weapon if you want to talk about it good.
Speaker 1: Otherwise you can live in a shattered economy for a
Speaker 1: long time to come. Resident Trump pretty clear on what's
Speaker 1: acceptable to him when we're talking about Iran and nukes.
Speaker 1: And let's see how we're doing with this whole process.
Speaker 1: We got Daniel Hoffman with us now he is formally
Speaker 1: with the CIA. Daniel is a counter terrorism expert, national
Speaker 1: security expert. Daniel, thank you so much for joining Hey,
Speaker 1: always a pleasure. Thanks for having me on. Also a
Speaker 1: Fox News contributor, so I got to throw that in
Speaker 1: there as well. So, Daniel, how is Trump doing right now?
Speaker 1: There seemed to be this heightened sense that maybe we
Speaker 1: were right on the precipice of a let's say, a
Speaker 1: military exchange, because people get very testy about the term
Speaker 1: war when we're looking at this issue. But how do
Speaker 1: you see where we are and what the president should
Speaker 1: do from here? Well, let's start with this. The President
Speaker 1: thought that the Iran nuclear deal. The JCPO way was
Speaker 1: extraordinarily flawed and it was not even many Democrats, including
Speaker 1: Senator Chuck Schumer, supported it, and that's why it never
Speaker 1: became a treaty. And so we implemented a maximum sanctions
Speaker 1: economic pressure campaign designed to bring Iran back to the
Speaker 1: negotiating table so that we could deal with the three
Speaker 1: I would say key issues the fact that there were
Speaker 1: sunset clauses on Iran's development of a nuclear capability, their
Speaker 1: ballistic missile program, and then them serving as a state
Speaker 1: sponsor of terrorism, and the sanctions are really caused Iran's
Speaker 1: economy to go into free fall. Their currency is not
Speaker 1: worth much of anything. They're earning, you know, forty percent
Speaker 1: less of their budget in terms of the oil revenues.
Speaker 1: We're crushing them and they know it, and that's why
Speaker 1: they've lashed out with attempts to blackmail US with nuclear blackmail,
Speaker 1: where they've threatened to enrich uranium to weapons grade levels
Speaker 1: starting July eighth if they don't receive actions relief. It's
Speaker 1: why they mounted those attacks on the tankers and the Gulf,
Speaker 1: among other things. Now, I say all that is background,
Speaker 1: because Iran hasn't taken it to the level where they
Speaker 1: know we would have to respond with kinetic action. We
Speaker 1: got close when they shot down our drone, but they
Speaker 1: also did not target our manned pH surveillance aircraft. They
Speaker 1: haven't targeted US ships in the Gulf and put our
Speaker 1: servicemen and women at risk. So they know there's a
Speaker 1: little bit of rules of engagement that we're fashioning out
Speaker 1: with the Iranians, but they are demanding that we returned
Speaker 1: to the flawed jcpoa's a precondition for negotiations. So where
Speaker 1: we're at right now, we're not going to stop the
Speaker 1: sanctions at all. We're going to continue to press ahead
Speaker 1: with those iran Is trying to get some sanctions relief,
Speaker 1: and we're seeing a little bit of back and forth
Speaker 1: on on how we deal with that. And the President,
Speaker 1: in my view, did the right thing by showing restraints
Speaker 1: and not responding with kinetic action and rather reportedly with
Speaker 1: a cyber strike, a precision one at those same facilities
Speaker 1: that didn't risk or cause any collateral damage to personnel,
Speaker 1: and then increase sanctions on the Iranian regime. What has
Speaker 1: to happen? Can I just ask you, Daniel, I mean,
Speaker 1: what has to happen for the decision making process inside
Speaker 1: of Iran to finally switch to okay, we'll we'll play
Speaker 1: ball in a way that would be even in the
Speaker 1: opening stages, acceptable to the Trump administration. But some of
Speaker 1: the lower level Iranian officials have indicated a willingness to
Speaker 1: begin negotiations with the United States. I think there's going
Speaker 1: to have to be a little bit of faith savings
Speaker 1: for the Iranians to come to the table. Would would
Speaker 1: the Trump administration, for example, lighten up on certain sanctions
Speaker 1: you know we've we've piled on to the Supreme Leader
Speaker 1: and the IRGC, among others. Would we remove a little
Speaker 1: bit of sanctions that don't league impact Iran's economy quite
Speaker 1: that much, but give Iranian the Iranian regime a face
Speaker 1: saving way to get back to the negotiating table. Maybe
Speaker 1: what Iran has done is given us the opportunity to
Speaker 1: get closer with our European allies, who have to appreciate
Speaker 1: that we have shown restraint and didn't take Iran's face
Speaker 1: to respond with the Connectic attack that might have divided US.
Speaker 1: President Trump is obviously going to get a lot of
Speaker 1: heat going forward for sticking to his guns on this one.
Speaker 1: Where do you think Republicans in the Congress really are
Speaker 1: on this? Do you get the sense that there are
Speaker 1: some that are getting weak in the knees or they're
Speaker 1: they're pretty unified on keeping Iran's feet to the fire. Yeah. Well,
Speaker 1: I'd like to see Republicans, then Democrats together with a
Speaker 1: bipartisan consensus on what we need to do in national security.
Speaker 1: Unfortunately we don't see that as often as we used
Speaker 1: to or as we should. I think there was a
Speaker 1: there were many Republicans who felt like we needed to
Speaker 1: hold Iran accountable for shooting down our drone and accountable
Speaker 1: with a military counter strike. But I also think that
Speaker 1: the president's restraints and the follow up cyber strike and
Speaker 1: sanctions to probably mollified those who disagreed with the lack
Speaker 1: of a kinetic response for now, but it's clear that
Speaker 1: we have I think, that much more strength behind a
Speaker 1: kinetic response if and when we do get there. What's
Speaker 1: the worst case scenario in your mind? We're speaking to
Speaker 1: Daniel Hoffman, Everybody's former senior CIA officer and also Fox
Speaker 1: News contributor. Daniel what's the worst case scenario if the
Speaker 1: Iranians decide to really really push it with us. I mean,
Speaker 1: how far do you think they'd be willing to go?
Speaker 1: Would they sank an oil tanker? Would they actually go
Speaker 1: for it? Well, look, there's a couple of red lines
Speaker 1: here that I think we need to be cognizant of.
Speaker 1: The First one is if Iran enriches uranium to weapons
Speaker 1: grade levels. I'm less concerned about them stockpiling low grade uranium.
Speaker 1: They've done that, I think they've reached the limit established
Speaker 1: at JCP away, but enriching uranium to weapons grade levels
Speaker 1: is a grade concerned to US as well as our allies,
Speaker 1: starting with Israel. Not to mention Saudi Arabia among others. Secondly,
Speaker 1: would be, as you point out, a kinetic strike against
Speaker 1: the US tanker where servicemen and women are not only
Speaker 1: put at risks, but maybe killed, then there's going to
Speaker 1: be a response. And the President has been clear, and
Speaker 1: General David Petraeus, outside observer who knows quite a lot
Speaker 1: about war fighting, has said to the Iranians among all
Speaker 1: of us that said, look, don't take this administration, the
Speaker 1: Trump administration lately when they say that. The President says,
Speaker 1: he means he's going to respond. He's going to respond,
Speaker 1: and so I think the concern for me neither country
Speaker 1: wants the war. That wouldn't be in our interest. We're
Speaker 1: going back and forth over leverage, get trying to seek
Speaker 1: out and gain leverage in advance or an anticipation of negotiations,
Speaker 1: and that process is dikey at times. But we need
Speaker 1: at all costs, I think, to avoid war. But the
Speaker 1: Iranians are in a tough play for it, and we've
Speaker 1: got our boots on their growth even more than we
Speaker 1: ever had in the Obama administration, and I felt we
Speaker 1: took our boot off their throat. Then precipitously, we should
Speaker 1: have waited. If they enrich the uranium up to if
Speaker 1: they go from the three to the twenty percent, then
Speaker 1: we know it's pretty fast jumped to get up to
Speaker 1: ninety if they go beyond the parameters of the deal,
Speaker 1: which now we're not still in, but we know what
Speaker 1: the parameters are that are acceptable to us were regardless
Speaker 1: of whether we're in the the you know, j JCPOA.
Speaker 1: Should we strike the reactors? Is that the move? Well,
Speaker 1: I'll say what we need to do before that is
Speaker 1: have serious discussions with our allies and agree on that
Speaker 1: as a red line and then discuss a variety of
Speaker 1: options we would want to take with our allies. I
Speaker 1: think it's important that we bring in europe and allies. Look,
Speaker 1: Russia was the trojan Horse and the JCPOA, they were
Speaker 1: involved with My goodness, they certainly don't have our best
Speaker 1: interests at heart. It's the very least we need to
Speaker 1: be lockstep with our European allies, the UK in particular
Speaker 1: on that. And we also need to get a back
Speaker 1: channel message to the rani's rules of engagement warn them
Speaker 1: if you enrich uranium to weapons grade levels, we will
Speaker 1: respond Accordingly. We don't have to tell them how we're
Speaker 1: going to respond, but we need to let them know
Speaker 1: that we're going to respond, and we could be very
Speaker 1: public about that. In other words, administration could tell the
Speaker 1: Iranians and then could, as their every administration has been
Speaker 1: known to do this, inform our media that this is
Speaker 1: what has been said, this is what has transpired, so
Speaker 1: that the world knows that if Iran does this, they're
Speaker 1: going to face a response. It's not going to be
Speaker 1: a cyber attack launched that you know, a facility it might,
Speaker 1: it's going to be something quite different. Daniel often everybody. Daniel,
Speaker 1: thank you so much man for joining us. Appreciate your expertise.
Speaker 1: Always a pleasure to look forward to next time. All right,
Speaker 1: team a quick break, We'll be back with roll Call.
Speaker 1: All your thoughts, all the things, all the good things
Speaker 1: in just a moment. Ain't no party like a Team
Speaker 1: Buck party, because a Team Buck party. Don't stop. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we got Buck turned up to eleven. It's time for
Speaker 1: roll call. The roll call, you know what. This is
Speaker 1: the latter part of the show where I read messages
Speaker 1: from you, react to them, and then we all just
Speaker 1: have a little chat and have a little talk. I'm
Speaker 1: up in nyc FA the weekend seeing the fam checking
Speaker 1: out the sites. Come out to the coast, have a
Speaker 1: few laughs. The East coast, that is not the West coast,
Speaker 1: not today. So indeed, this little ride on the Acela
Speaker 1: up today. Although I don't understand why people think they
Speaker 1: have to yell into their cell phones. The cell phone
Speaker 1: technology has gotten pretty good, folks, as you all know.
Speaker 1: I'm sure you can just talk into your phone. Hey babe,
Speaker 1: you got the thing from the guy? You get the
Speaker 1: thing from the guy? Can you hear me? We could
Speaker 1: all hear you all across the entirety of this train car. Sir,
Speaker 1: we can all hear you. We are really now all
Speaker 1: being forced to be a part of that conversation. I
Speaker 1: happened to sit behind a guy who was one of these.
Speaker 1: He's on a train for three hours, and his first
Speaker 1: thought is it's a great time to make loud phone
Speaker 1: calls for three hours. Who man, Some days you win,
Speaker 1: you know, some days, some days you get the bulls.
Speaker 1: Some days the bull gets you. Mark, You know what
Speaker 1: I mean? While you ride the quiet car it was full.
Speaker 1: I'm not a savage. I know about the quiet car.
Speaker 1: It was full o people suck. What can you do?
Speaker 1: I should have offered someone a bribe to get out
Speaker 1: of the quiet car, be like, I will bring you
Speaker 1: one of those four dollars granola bars that they sell
Speaker 1: in the cafe car. You know, I could have probably
Speaker 1: figured something out a little bit of bartering. Cam Newton
Speaker 1: offered somebody fifteen hundred dollars to move from a first
Speaker 1: class seat from Paris to wherever he was going. They said, no,
Speaker 1: look last week this happened fifteen hundred. I mean, the
Speaker 1: first class seat can run you a few grant. I
Speaker 1: don't think fifteen hundred bucks gonna that's not gonna cut it,
Speaker 1: my friend. That's an extra fifteen hundred just to move seats.
Speaker 1: I mean it's a long flight. Though, it's a long flight.
Speaker 1: I guess if you can afford first class, you don't
Speaker 1: need that money. Yeah, you know, we gotta think like
Speaker 1: the one percent here, Mark, you know, we got to
Speaker 1: imagine ourselves. That's that's fun. All right, let's get into
Speaker 1: this Facebook dot com slashbuck Sex didn't Stephen up first?
Speaker 1: Hey Buck, I love you. You're amazing. Thank you for
Speaker 1: your radio show. It keeps me safe and warm at night.
Speaker 1: Best message all weeks, Stephen, Thank you so much. Thank
Speaker 1: you so much, my friend. I do appreciate it. I
Speaker 1: know I asked for that message, but you came through
Speaker 1: in the clutch. That's it really matters. I love you.
Speaker 1: You're amazing. Thank you for your radio show. Keeps me
Speaker 1: safe and warm at night. How can a message on
Speaker 1: Facebook get any better than that? Christ, and so glad
Speaker 1: to hear you interviewing the creator of Parlor. It deserves
Speaker 1: our attention and hopefully more and more will be moving
Speaker 1: there and this will end the monopoly that Twitter has had. Yeah, Christ,
Speaker 1: and I'm with you on that. I would really like
Speaker 1: to see. Remember, it's not that we need a conservative
Speaker 1: social media app, it's that we need a neutral social
Speaker 1: media app. I think a neutral one is achievable, or
Speaker 1: at least something pretty close to something neutral enough that
Speaker 1: we would want to, you know, we'd want to see,
Speaker 1: we want to go for it. I think that that's
Speaker 1: very possible. But let's see. Let's see here, Brian hey Buck,
Speaker 1: did you notice early on the debate how the moderator
Speaker 1: worked Warren's name into a question to another candidate just
Speaker 1: to give her a chance to respond with another prepared speech. Gee,
Speaker 1: I wonder how this primary is going to go. I
Speaker 1: think she has been there intended recipient of the nomination
Speaker 1: from the start. I think he'll be interesting to see
Speaker 1: if Bernie speaks out against the d n c's obvious
Speaker 1: meddling with super delegates this time around, how he lacked
Speaker 1: the backbone in personal integrity to do against Clinton. I
Speaker 1: think it's unlikely that Warren wins in a general election,
Speaker 1: but Bernie could mess things up for her a little
Speaker 1: bit more. Either way, It's still early and she shouldn't
Speaker 1: be dismissed as a serious threat. Well, where is this.
Speaker 1: My friend Jesse Kelly had a great had a great
Speaker 1: line about Warren today. Let me see if I can
Speaker 1: pull it up for you. Where do you go? Oh gosh,
Speaker 1: you know Jesse has spelled so many different ways. Now,
Speaker 1: well it's spelled two different ways. Here you go. This
Speaker 1: is Jesse a few hours ago. Elizabeth Warren is a
Speaker 1: much better candidate than I gave her credit for. She
Speaker 1: survived the worst campaign rollout in the history of America
Speaker 1: and the personality of a hyena, and she's gaining on
Speaker 1: Biden fast. It's impressive. She's gonna get crushed by Trump,
Speaker 1: but still impressive. I think that's very accurate. I think
Speaker 1: that's very apt. That's that's pretty true. That she is
Speaker 1: somebody who, despite all the obstacles that she has created
Speaker 1: for herself, she seems to be able to just keep
Speaker 1: on moving along. It's really astonishing. Glenn Right. I was
Speaker 1: happy to hear you interview the founder of Parlor on
Speaker 1: your show. I found his views for the future interesting.
Speaker 1: I remember when I suggested it to you that you
Speaker 1: weren't sure whether I even spelled it correctly. Hope you
Speaker 1: see that the venue more. I hope you will use
Speaker 1: that venue more and will definitely follow you when and
Speaker 1: if you do. Thank you, Glenn, well, Glenn, thank you
Speaker 1: my man. And yes, you wait, you did tell me
Speaker 1: to download Parlor, didn't you? Wasn't this? Uh yeah? Oh?
Speaker 1: Ps have you? This is what Glenn wrote on May
Speaker 1: thirty first, twenty nineteen. Have you heard of Parlor? The
Speaker 1: free speech alternative to Twitter? She'd get someone from there
Speaker 1: on to promote your program, c Glenn Boom. I'm in
Speaker 1: the customer service business, my man. And if you want
Speaker 1: me to, you know, do the stuff I do it
Speaker 1: here on the show. Yeah, yeah, mocking bird ing. Do
Speaker 1: you still do you still remember dumb and dumb remark?
Speaker 1: Of course? All right, just making sure I'm not that yell.
Speaker 1: That's right. And I know you defy age categorization and
Speaker 1: I don't. I couldn't. I couldn't tell you. You know,
Speaker 1: you could tell me you're a millennial, aren't you. Oh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's what I thought. You're an older millennial, but I'm younger. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: you're one of those young whipper snapper millennials, you know.
Speaker 1: All Oh look at me T Swift and Ariana Grande
Speaker 1: and stuff. I've been told a bouncer once told me
Speaker 1: that I looked fifteen. We didn't think my idea was real. Really,
Speaker 1: people tell me that's the whole time. I don't say
Speaker 1: fifteen now they say like late twenties or something. The
Speaker 1: beard helps there we go exactly. Zach, hey Buck, I
Speaker 1: love you. You're amazing. Thanks for the radio show. It
Speaker 1: keeps me safe and war of at night. All right,
Speaker 1: we got another in here, Thank you, Zach. That should
Speaker 1: be I want to like put this on my on
Speaker 1: my show page. You know this is These are the
Speaker 1: comments that I'm getting to the audience that my show
Speaker 1: keeps them safe and warm at night. We don't have
Speaker 1: to tell anybody that I asked them to say this.
Speaker 1: All right, somebody wrote something that's not for on air,
Speaker 1: so I will skip that. Brian, hey Buck, heard you
Speaker 1: ask for someone to write and they love your show.
Speaker 1: I love your show keeps me safe and wire. Thank you, Brian.
Speaker 1: We're gonna I'm gonna stop reading all these. We've got
Speaker 1: a lot of these, which I appreciate. Thank you, everybody,
Speaker 1: very very nice. Let's see here, Kelly. If I turn
Speaker 1: on the debates right now, well, I see a Donkey
Speaker 1: mascot shooting rolls of one hundred dollars bills out of
Speaker 1: T shirt cannons into the audience. That might be the
Speaker 1: only reason to watch, oh, Kelly metaphorically speaking, I believe
Speaker 1: that is more or less what you would have seen
Speaker 1: had you watched the debate last night. Kelly continued on,
Speaker 1: I'll just stick with the low lights and recaps. Being
Speaker 1: on the West coast makes primetime things hard to catch.
Speaker 1: M hm, oh, there we have it. Um, now that
Speaker 1: was my That's the one problem I have in la
Speaker 1: is I when I wake when my alarm goes off,
Speaker 1: and I wake up at seven seven thirty in the morning, Um,
Speaker 1: it's really a lot of stuff has already happened on
Speaker 1: the East coast. So if you're in the news business,
Speaker 1: I think that can be kind of tough. Uh. Let's
Speaker 1: see here, David, is the social media site you've been
Speaker 1: talking about parlor or par parlay, Well, David, it's spelled parlor.
Speaker 1: I believe pa r l e R, which technically, if
Speaker 1: you are somebody who parley vous francais, you would say parley.
Speaker 1: Now we beon seres parle francis basque voi parlais on
Speaker 1: anglais blah bla bla French French French. Yeah, Parley, that's
Speaker 1: that's what it is. Parlor. P A R L E R.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm actually teamed. I'm gonna download this
Speaker 1: thing right now. I'm gonna download it right now so
Speaker 1: that way I can talk more about it as we
Speaker 1: get going here, unless they kick it out of the app.
Speaker 1: Let's see what we got here, Parlor, I got it,
Speaker 1: downloading it good to go. Hopefully this isn't some plot
Speaker 1: by the Illuminati or the Russians or something. But yeah,
Speaker 1: Parlor is now being downloaded onto my phone. I got
Speaker 1: it all right, I do want to do Let's see
Speaker 1: here all call me Buck. Haven't heard your entire show yet.
Speaker 1: But on the Illegal crossers, drowning and the Rio grand,
Speaker 1: how they get to the other side if they drowned,
Speaker 1: body sink and eventually rise when bloating maybe seems to
Speaker 1: me they were drugged there by somebody kind of timely
Speaker 1: and suspicious with a border bill funding in a process.
Speaker 1: I you know, al, I don't know much about crime
Speaker 1: scene stuff, so I think you're correct. At body's first
Speaker 1: sink and then get bloated and then rise to the surface.
Speaker 1: But wouldn't that then I don't know why that would
Speaker 1: mean that somebody stay age this. If that's what you're
Speaker 1: saying clearly, that these two people die, that's very very sad.
Speaker 1: But what I mean is, is there any reason to
Speaker 1: believe that somebody change this, change the position of the bodies,
Speaker 1: or try to do that. And I don't see that,
Speaker 1: But I am open to suggestion. I'm open to whatever
Speaker 1: you've got for me to learn about. So I'm sure
Speaker 1: this audience we probably have somebody who's like a world
Speaker 1: class homicide investigator or forensics investigator. We always whenever I
Speaker 1: need real insight on something, I can always say, hey, team,
Speaker 1: who among you is a world class astrophysicist who can
Speaker 1: answer this question. I usually have that person sending me
Speaker 1: a note within twenty four hours, which is great kind
Speaker 1: of fun. I really should crowdsource everything and be like, hey, guys,
Speaker 1: so I think I need to invest some money from
Speaker 1: my four oh one K. I'm just wondering if what
Speaker 1: you think of this idea. Let's see here, James, you
Speaker 1: seem to overlook the DEM's endgame for illegal immigrance is
Speaker 1: a few your voter base period. Well, James, you seem
Speaker 1: to overlook that I've said that on this show, probably
Speaker 1: a hundred times, maybe more than that. So I don't
Speaker 1: know why you think I'm overlooking it. I think what
Speaker 1: needs to happen here, James, who we shared, We share
Speaker 1: our first name, so that's kind of cool. Is that
Speaker 1: you just need to listen to the Buck Sexton Show more,
Speaker 1: my friend, and then all will be well in the world.
Speaker 1: So I guess we've got that going for us, which
Speaker 1: is nice. We got more role call stay right there,
Speaker 1: Angela continues our role call phenomenon. I just realized it's Thursday,
Speaker 1: and I just did a double roll call. You know what,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you guys something right now. I actually
Speaker 1: thought it was Friday because I'm in New York City
Speaker 1: and I'm usually here on Fridays, so I'm completely Mike.
Speaker 1: I was going to ask you what your weekend plans were,
Speaker 1: But it's a little early. You know, we're jumping the
Speaker 1: gun a little bit. You got to show up for
Speaker 1: work tomorrow, buddy. All right, they'll be here, But doesn't
Speaker 1: mean I don't have weekend plans. Where's Cash? By the way,
Speaker 1: have you gonna bring him in some time? Yes? I should.
Speaker 1: He's probably peeing all over my apartment right now, Right,
Speaker 1: we'll bring him in the studio. Letim pee all over
Speaker 1: the studio. It's fine, Yeah, we'll get him in here.
Speaker 1: That's so all right, Angela. Right's gotta Amocrat debate gambling game.
Speaker 1: Four teams, Red, Blue, Green, Gold. Each team has the
Speaker 1: exact same amount of cash. Team of the most cash wins,
Speaker 1: and you can opt to buy in. Teams have keywords
Speaker 1: gold trashing Americans and Republicans, Red trashing President Trump, Blue, free, green,
Speaker 1: climate change. Oh, blue is free and green is climate change.
Speaker 1: Very creative, Angela, Thank you for writing in. Matthew. Just
Speaker 1: a thought, buck, But what if the Obamas are behind
Speaker 1: the Central Park five documentary. They've been paid millions of
Speaker 1: developed programming for Netflix. What if this is just the
Speaker 1: first of many documentaries trying to change history and convince
Speaker 1: the American people that we are racist for enforcing the law.
Speaker 1: Equally well, Matthew, the efforts to change the Central Park five,
Speaker 1: to change the narrative around this, these have been going
Speaker 1: on for a long time. This is not new. So
Speaker 1: the Netflix documentary is just the most recent version of
Speaker 1: trying to rewrite this history. But it's been going on.
Speaker 1: There was a Ken Burns documentary before. There's there's plenty
Speaker 1: of this stuff going on out there. So yeah, uh,
Speaker 1: that's something that's that's very real, and that's why I
Speaker 1: focus in on this one. And as somebody who, as
Speaker 1: I've told you, grew up next to Central Park, lived
Speaker 1: in New York City, and then went on to work
Speaker 1: as a civilian contractor for the NYPD and the counter
Speaker 1: terrorism side of the house, but still had a lot
Speaker 1: of exposure to the detectives and to the sergeants and
Speaker 1: all the stuff that they're doing. I just I think
Speaker 1: it's I think it's important we get this story right.
Speaker 1: I don't think it's our I don't think it's okay
Speaker 1: to make this up as people wish it had been.
Speaker 1: And I'm not all right with that. I'm not going
Speaker 1: to sign on for that one. Yeah, problems with that,
Speaker 1: all right, Here we go. Uh, let's see brand in
Speaker 1: right buck. How's miss Molly. I thought it was awesome
Speaker 1: that Dan Bongino gave you some props on the show recently.

Speaker 1: Miss Milly and I split a little while ago. I
Speaker 1: hope she's doing well. She's a wonderful woman and deserves
Speaker 1: a very long, happy, wonderful life. As to Dan Bongino,
Speaker 1: I uh yeah, no, I remember that. That was a
Speaker 1: little while back. I think I might have read a
Speaker 1: slightly older message here, but that's okay, that's all right.
Speaker 1: Thank you Brandon nonetheless for writing in See. We have
Speaker 1: so many messages. I can't keep it all. I can't

Speaker 1: induced cold symptoms. Zerotec floone is all that music X
