1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of The Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:06,840 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Third hour of The Clay Travis and 3 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:12,920 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show underway, my friends, and so is the 4 00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:19,480 Speaker 1: January sixth committee hearing up on Capitol Hill. You had 5 00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:24,280 Speaker 1: a former aid to Mark Meadows. Mark Meadows a very 6 00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:29,360 Speaker 1: nice guy, but some of his top people not particularly loyal. 7 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:32,240 Speaker 1: It's gonna throw that out there. You've had a couple 8 00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:34,919 Speaker 1: of them who have come out and just trash, not 9 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:38,559 Speaker 1: just Trump, but you know, essentially switched parties, just that 10 00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:41,840 Speaker 1: they're gonna play for the other team. So there's nothing 11 00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:45,400 Speaker 1: all that's important to bring to your attention other than 12 00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:50,279 Speaker 1: this is I've realized this is like Days of Our 13 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 1: Lives for NPR listeners, meaning this this is like a 14 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:55,960 Speaker 1: soap opera they put on now during the day where 15 00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 1: everyone just is the insurrection and all the all the 16 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 1: liberal wine moms with cats not actually children. Um, they're 17 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 1: they're at home going Oh no, not another insurrection. What 18 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 1: will we ever do? There's people were taking selfies, they 19 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:17,720 Speaker 1: were wandering around aimlessly. Um. And yes, of course I 20 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:19,480 Speaker 1: have to say some of them broke the law and 21 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 1: that was bad, and they shouldn't do that and they 22 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:26,680 Speaker 1: should be punished for it. But Clay, nothing, nothing big 23 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: coming out of these hearings other than they're saying that 24 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 1: Trump was very angry on the day of the January 25 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: sixth insurrection. So yeah, and look there's uh the person 26 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:40,280 Speaker 1: who is testifying today is UH woman named Abby Hutchinson. 27 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:43,919 Speaker 1: She's only I believe twenty five years old and she's 28 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 1: testifying cast sorry, Cassidy Hutchinson. She's testifying right now based 29 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: on what she was told happened in the presidential limo 30 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 1: on January six, twenty twenty one, after the rally, that 31 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 1: Trump wanted to go to the capitol and said, according 32 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 1: to her, I'm the effing president, take me to the 33 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 1: Capitol now. And but so what's interesting about this is 34 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 1: she's testifying. It's hearsay, right, So she's testifying based on 35 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: what she was told happened in the limo on that day. 36 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: And again, just to reiterate, Trump has not been the 37 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:29,639 Speaker 1: president for eighteen months now, and so this obsession with 38 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 1: Trump on some level. We've talked about this, buck Ron, 39 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,360 Speaker 1: does we believe I think I think I speak for 40 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 1: you as well. We believe that it's going to end 41 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 1: up Trump versus De Santis if they if they both 42 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,240 Speaker 1: decide to run, and I think they're both going to 43 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 1: decide to run. Those are the two eight hundred pound guerrillas. 44 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,239 Speaker 1: To these, there will be some other you know, there'll 45 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:52,079 Speaker 1: be some Republicans who want up their speaking fees and 46 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 1: you know, maybe get a better book deal who will 47 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 1: also run for presidents will run. I think Mike Pompeo 48 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 1: is gonna run. There's gonna be a lot of people 49 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 1: who run. But to me right now, the eight hundred 50 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: pound guerrillas in the ring would be Trump against rhnd 51 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 1: san And this goes to a broader narrative that we've 52 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,399 Speaker 1: seen play out in the era of COVID. I think 53 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 1: anybody who's I mean, I've worked in what's effectively political 54 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 1: media now for over a decade, and anyone will tell 55 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 1: you that it's usually these different news organizations. It's all 56 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,679 Speaker 1: about the national level story, and really the national level 57 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: politicians get so much of the attention. Well, because of COVID, 58 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:34,399 Speaker 1: we all got a big reminder that your state government 59 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: actually matters a whole heck of a lot. It's not 60 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: just what lauded Congress pass, it's what is your governor 61 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 1: signing into not even laws, signing as an executive order? 62 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: What is your governor doing to you right now? When 63 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: it came to lockdowns, mask mandates, vaccine? Man, it's all 64 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 1: of this. So, you know, some people ended up seeing 65 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 1: really good results from their state government. Others, Unfortunately, New 66 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 1: York falls in this category. I think so does California, 67 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: al though I don't live there. Saw what happens? What 68 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 1: kind of nightmare you can be put through when you 69 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 1: have hyper ideological libs at the helm of your state government, 70 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: Really bad things can happen. And I think that sets 71 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 1: up an interesting scenario for first, let's just start with this. 72 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: Even the Democrats are aware of the blaringly obvious reality 73 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 1: that Joe Biden is two things either way, you know, 74 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: you know one maybe that'd go with two is too many, 75 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:37,279 Speaker 1: too old, and too unpopular. This is an issue on 76 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 1: Joe Biden's mind. He is deeply frustrated by what he 77 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: viewed as the sort of lack of respect from the 78 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,239 Speaker 1: President from also from his fellow Democrats about his intent 79 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: to run for reelection. He can't figure out why folks 80 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 1: won't take yes for an inswert you and I know 81 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 1: why that is. It's because he's gonna be eighty one 82 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,840 Speaker 1: years old in twenty twenty four. He's already the oldest 83 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:03,160 Speaker 1: American president. There's real doubts about his capacity to serve 84 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,840 Speaker 1: a second for your term. Yeah, there should have been 85 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: those real doubts before his first term, Clay, as we've 86 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,599 Speaker 1: talked about so many times. But Democrats are ruthless and 87 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,720 Speaker 1: what power and they didn't care. But more to the point, now, 88 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 1: we're seeing something line up here where you have only 89 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 1: really two heavyweights at the state level representing the different 90 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:30,039 Speaker 1: different party narratives here, Republican and Democrat, and this could 91 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: lead to a very different showdown, if not of the 92 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: presidential election coming up, certainly in the meantime, about whether 93 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 1: Democrats or Republicans did a better job on the pandemic, 94 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,559 Speaker 1: specifically talking about Gavin Newsom of California, who you pointed 95 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 1: out yesterday could be running, and of course Governor Ronda 96 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:52,600 Speaker 1: Santis of Florida. People realize that state government really matters. 97 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:56,480 Speaker 1: Those two individuals, they're from a different generation. As we've discussed, 98 00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: Newsome will be I mean Ronda Santis is actually twenty 99 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: years or fifteen years younger than Newsom, something like that. 100 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 1: Newsome is going to be what he's in his late fifties, 101 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: I think right now something. Oh see, I didn't know 102 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 1: he was that old. Yeah, he's older. Yeah, I know, 103 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 1: spends a lot, spends a lot of time. I'm trying 104 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 1: to look good for the cameras. DeSantis is like forty two. 105 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 1: He's your Santis is my exact amage. So DeSantis graduated 106 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: from a high school in ninety seven, went to college 107 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: in oh one, So he just I think turned forty 108 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 1: three years old. But there's no one else we think 109 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: back to who was being talked about even the last 110 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 1: presidential election cycle from the Democrat side, there's really nobody 111 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: else who has the political base that Newsom would bring 112 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 1: to the table for the Democrats. Who's a national level name, 113 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:47,280 Speaker 1: who has doubled and tripled down on COVID, lockdown's masks, 114 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 1: all that stuff. And if he goes up against DeSantis, 115 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 1: I mean, it would be a clash of the opposing 116 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: political titans from the state level. And the reason why 117 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:01,159 Speaker 1: all this is starting to happen. Yesterday I said, and 118 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:04,920 Speaker 1: we had a discussion that at some point a viable 119 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,599 Speaker 1: Democrat candidate has to step out and be the first 120 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: person to say I'm going to take on Joe Biden. 121 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 1: I'm going to primary him. One way this thing plays 122 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 1: out is Biden decides he pulls a LBJ says I 123 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 1: will not run, and then you have a wide open 124 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 1: primary like happened with LBJ in I guess sixty eight, right, 125 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 1: LBJ just says I can't do it. I'm not running, 126 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: even though I would be eligible for reelection. I'm out. 127 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 1: And this was what I saw yesterday, Buck, Gavin Newsom 128 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: has placed. This is according to Ad Impact Politics, which 129 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: does a good job covering where political ads are being 130 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: bought and whatnot. California Governor Gavin Newsom just placed, they said, 131 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 1: a statewide cable buy in Florida, with ads beginning to 132 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 1: air on July fourth. Now you might be sitting back 133 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 1: if you're listening to us same Wait a minute, why 134 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: would the governor of California be buying any ads in 135 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: the state of Florida. Well, one thing would be too 136 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 1: gig and get after Donald Trump, who watches a lot 137 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 1: of Florida television from Mara Lago. Another thing would be, 138 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 1: to your point, Buck, that we would basically have American 139 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: COVID politics writ large, where Newsome, who is the biggest 140 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 1: surviving governor because remember a former left wing hero Andrew 141 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: Cuomo has been pulled from office or has voluntarily resigned 142 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 1: from office as a scandal, and now we got Kathy Hokel. 143 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 1: But the other side of this equation is you have 144 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: got Rhonda Santis, who was the most successful at handling 145 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 1: COVID of any state. And by the way, thanks to 146 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:54,199 Speaker 1: ninety six three, one oh two five, I'm at Panama 147 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:58,240 Speaker 1: City down in Florida. I broadcast from here a decent 148 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: amount because we have a home us up the road 149 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 1: here on the Gulf Coast of Florida that I spend 150 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 1: a decent time on. So I spent back in May 151 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty buck, I brought my family down to 152 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:12,079 Speaker 1: Florida for the entire month and worked from here. And 153 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 1: this would be an epic DeSantis versus Trump battle, sorry 154 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 1: de Santis versus potentially Newsome battle. And tying this in 155 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 1: with January sixth, which is going on right now, Democrats 156 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:31,679 Speaker 1: think in this third impeachment taught trial of Donald Trump, oh, 157 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 1: we are destroying Republicans chances. In twenty twenty four that's 158 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 1: what they're trying to do. They are trying desperately to 159 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 1: destroy Republican chances in twenty twenty four. What if an 160 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 1: attacking Trump, they're elevating other challengers who may be as 161 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:52,559 Speaker 1: strong as Trump as well in the Republican Party. You 162 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,319 Speaker 1: always have to be careful because buck right now, we 163 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: got the primary thirty five million dollars Democrats have spent 164 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 1: to try to pick their primary opponents in Illinois. In 165 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 1: other states they're trying to pick primary opponents. Gotta be 166 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 1: careful when you're trying to meddle in internal politics on 167 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 1: the other side, because sometimes you end up picking somebody 168 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 1: who kicks your ass in an election, right you gotta 169 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 1: be careful. And speaking of some of those elections that 170 00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 1: they're already putting a lot of money into to try 171 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:27,320 Speaker 1: to shape how it will all go, I'm hearing people say, 172 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 1: you know, you want to talk some outliers. Washington State 173 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 1: right now, Senate campaign Democrats not feeling good about it, 174 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 1: Colorado State right now, Democrats not feeling good about some 175 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,959 Speaker 1: of the races that are going to be determined there. 176 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 1: I'm even here, I'm even hearing people say it's not 177 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 1: crazy to think the Oregon governor's race could get interesting. 178 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: Times lead with that this morning about how nervous they 179 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 1: are about what might happen in Oregon, where I don't 180 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 1: believe a Democrat has won statewide in the governor's race. 181 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 1: It's like eighty eight a Republican as once yes, sorry, yes, yeah, um. 182 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 1: And even some people are saying Illinois could get kind 183 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 1: of interesting too. So now, didn't look these we're talking 184 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 1: long shots here. These are not This is not like 185 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: put your money on it and sleep well at night. 186 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 1: This is these are These are pretty much long shots 187 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 1: right now. But I do think that for the example 188 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 1: the New York Times with Oregon, they're they're trying to 189 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:25,080 Speaker 1: raise the alarm because I think there's a somnambulance on 190 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 1: the Democrats side. Look at you, somnambulance. I mean, you know, 191 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 1: sometimes sometimes you got to throw it in there, yea. 192 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: And I think that people on the on the left 193 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,439 Speaker 1: are just assuming, yeah, we're gonna lose, but it's gonna 194 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,320 Speaker 1: be an off year. This could be way beyond just 195 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 1: an off year election cycle. Clay. There could be, and 196 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:50,439 Speaker 1: I say could very likely will be more Republican governors 197 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 1: of the fifty states at one time than we have 198 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 1: seen in decades. I think it will be close to 199 00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 1: the all time record. We could be at something like 200 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: thirty one thirty two Republican governors in the States. So 201 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:08,960 Speaker 1: and then you add into this the shift in school 202 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 1: board elections, which I know people think, oh, you know, 203 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 1: school board election, dogcatcher. No, school board elections actually really important, 204 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 1: and some of the other state legislative races. The red 205 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 1: way they think, I believe Clay, it's gonna be yeah, 206 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:23,680 Speaker 1: you know, we had an off year or whatever it 207 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: happens at party in power who this could be way 208 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 1: beyond that. To your point on the number of governors 209 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 1: that could be in play, we talked about this last week. 210 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 1: The Republicans, if they win thirty five House seats, which 211 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 1: is a very reasonable target, would have the largest number 212 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 1: of Republicans in the House of Representatives since nineteen twenty eight. 213 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 1: Let me repeat that, because it's a record scratch moment. 214 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: I think for a lot of people, if Republicans win 215 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:57,199 Speaker 1: thirty five seats, and I think that's a reasonable target, 216 00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 1: then Republicans would have the largest number of House seats 217 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 1: that they have had since before the Great depression going 218 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 1: all the way back to nineteen twenty eight, almost a 219 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 1: hundred year high in the number of Republicans that would 220 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 1: be in the House. To your point, Buck, almost one 221 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 1: hundred year high in terms of the number of Republicans 222 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: that would be serving as governor. And some of these 223 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:25,559 Speaker 1: Senate seats, some of these Senate seats like Washington and 224 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: Colorado that aren't even really on the radar. In these 225 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 1: wave elections, you end up having some favorites who lose 226 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 1: that nobody even thought it was possible they might lose. 227 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 1: So I just want to start to put this on 228 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 1: your radar screen. We talked with both Lee Eldon and 229 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 1: Andrew Giuliani about New York, but you got alarm bells 230 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,200 Speaker 1: going off in Oregon. Buck. One of the stats from 231 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,440 Speaker 1: the New York The Times this morning. Do you know 232 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 1: that in the space of the last three years, murders 233 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 1: in Portland have tripled. Let me repeat that, because again 234 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:04,079 Speaker 1: it's a stat that I think a lot of people 235 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:08,679 Speaker 1: here and they're in disbelief. Portland in the last three 236 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 1: years has nearly tripled the number of murders that are 237 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:17,440 Speaker 1: happening in that city. And we have discussed how Seattle 238 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:21,200 Speaker 1: and Portland, and let's say San Francisco. If you just 239 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:24,400 Speaker 1: go visit those cities, they are three of the most 240 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 1: beautiful jewel cities that exist anywhere in the world. And 241 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: Democrat policies have made them unsafe, They have made them filthy, 242 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:40,040 Speaker 1: They have ridden them with homelessness and murder and violent crime, 243 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 1: and businesses are suffering. And in wave elections, you already 244 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 1: saw it happen with the San Francisco School Board. You 245 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 1: already saw it happen with Chesa Budan on the recall 246 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 1: that the DA in wave elections, even in monster blue 247 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 1: state and blue city vanguards, we can see a red 248 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 1: wave even hitting there. And I think that's where we're headed. 249 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 1: And I think that's where we're headed. In a hurry, 250 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: I want to tell you about my friends at Chalk Look. 251 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 1: Are you sitting around right now thinking to yourself, Oh no, 252 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 1: all of these people who don't even know the difference 253 00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 1: between a man and a woman are trying to tell 254 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 1: me how to live my life.

On January sixth, 277 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: as the obsession continues with the former president of the 278 00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: United States, Wall Street Journal Joe put out an alert 279 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 1: talking about Cassidy Hutchinson and her testimony. We of course, 280 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 1: are live during this testimony, and she is recounting a 281 00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 1: dramatic altercation I'm reading from the Washington Post that took 282 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 1: place in the President's limousine after his secret Service detail 283 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 1: refused to drive him to the Capitol. Trump lunged at 284 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:25,199 Speaker 1: the steering wheel, said I'm the fffing President. Take me 285 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 1: to the Capitol now, and his agent said, sir, we 286 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:30,879 Speaker 1: have to go back to the West Wing now. She 287 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,440 Speaker 1: also says President Trump was mad when he was told 288 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 1: that there was not fraud and threw his lunch plate 289 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 1: against the walls. She helped clean that up. She is testifying, 290 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:45,199 Speaker 1: at least in regards to the limousine based on hearsay. 291 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 1: Someone else told her what exactly was said there, So 292 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 1: just so you are aware.

Is that right? 333 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 1: Second four, I'm just reading from h during the commercial break, 334 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,919 Speaker 1: I was telling Buck, let me make sure Joe Flint, 335 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 1: who I believe is at the Wall Street Journal, so 336 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 1: he is sharing some of these numbers, and Trump was 337 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 1: the golden goose for MSNBC and for CNN. UH primetime 338 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:24,400 Speaker 1: viewership in the second quarter CNN down thirty one percent 339 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:29,920 Speaker 1: over last year, MSNBC down forty percent, Fox News down 340 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 1: just two percent. That's twenty five to fifty four year olds. 341 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 1: The reason why I mentioned that is you'll lose forty 342 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:41,359 Speaker 1: percent of your audience in anything. People start getting people 343 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:43,199 Speaker 1: start getting fired. I mean the way which which has 344 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:46,200 Speaker 1: already happened over at seeing Look everything that I've been 345 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:49,680 Speaker 1: saying for you know, I'm so you know, we both 346 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,879 Speaker 1: we have different CNN experiences, right. I left because I 347 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,160 Speaker 1: couldn't stand the place anymore and thought that it had 348 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 1: become just a disgrace to even to cable news. It 349 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 1: was a grace never minded to journalism. And obviously you 350 00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 1: had you had a moment there, well well known and 351 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,159 Speaker 1: got the Like I said, it's like being banned from 352 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:10,160 Speaker 1: North Korea. It's a badge of honor to be banned 353 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 1: from CNN. But but when we said that they had 354 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:18,160 Speaker 1: destroyed there, they had effectively destroyed whatever credibility they had 355 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:21,159 Speaker 1: as a news gathered organization under Jeff Zucker's time, that 356 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 1: was the truth. That's why Jeff Zucker got fired. And 357 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:25,879 Speaker 1: when I told everybody that they're bad people that you 358 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:27,879 Speaker 1: cannot trust we're running that place, and who are some 359 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 1: of the biggest named talents, that was the truth. They're 360 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 1: not good people. Look at what's happened there. Okay, So 361 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:35,159 Speaker 1: so put all put all that aside for a second, though, 362 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:37,919 Speaker 1: because the G seven. It's always fun to take some 363 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 1: swings at CNN though, But the G seven. You saw 364 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 1: that photo, right Clay with all these world leaders, none 365 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,160 Speaker 1: of them had a tie on. And this is where 366 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:50,160 Speaker 1: I get to maybe I'm gonna start a little something here. 367 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna say it. I'm anti tie and I 368 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 1: know that some people think that this is this is blasphemy, 369 00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:00,200 Speaker 1: but I don't know why we still feel compelled old 370 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 1: and I just want to make my case to you. 371 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 1: I don't even know where you come down on this, 372 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 1: or maybe you agree with me, but the notion that 373 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 1: we should still be because a bunch of Croatian mercenaries 374 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 1: in the service of Louis the fourteenth and I think 375 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 1: it was the seventeenth century, where a little piece of 376 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 1: cloth around their neck, and then the fancy French fashionistas 377 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,680 Speaker 1: said this looks cool. We're gonna start doing this too. 378 00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:23,240 Speaker 1: I don't think we have to keep going with this 379 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:26,399 Speaker 1: thing anymore. I know people say, and the people that 380 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 1: know fashion and stuff are gonna say, buck, this is 381 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 1: why you wear baggy T shirts all the time. Fine, 382 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 1: but they're not comfortable, they don't really make any sense. 383 00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,399 Speaker 1: And we don't have a tie sponsor. So I'm proud 384 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,639 Speaker 1: to say, or I'm comfortable saying I think the necktie 385 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:44,159 Speaker 1: needs to go bye bye. I don't disagree with that 386 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:50,679 Speaker 1: at all. Actually, and I've been anti even wearing jackets 387 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:55,159 Speaker 1: a lot because when it's not cold, and this is 388 00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 1: maybe the Southerner in me, like having to put on 389 00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 1: a jacket when it's ninety eight degrees. It makes no sense. 390 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:06,720 Speaker 1: So when I practiced law, I had a suitcoat with 391 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: a tie in the event that I had to go 392 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:11,520 Speaker 1: in court, so I could put it on, you know, 393 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:14,200 Speaker 1: there's a hearing or whatever. But I would show up 394 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:17,919 Speaker 1: like most lawyers would in like a button down and 395 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:22,960 Speaker 1: khaki pants or whatever. And I really I'm in agreement. 396 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 1: I mean, as I sit and talk to you right now, 397 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 1: you know, people obviously in the theater of the mind here, 398 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 1: have no clue. What do I wear ninety nine percent 399 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 1: of the time, T shirt, shorts, flip flops. I mean 400 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 1: that's even when you see me behind the scenes here 401 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 1: on Fox News. If I'm doing it from my home cam, 402 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,919 Speaker 1: I've got a jacket and a button down on, and 403 00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 1: then I've got shorts. On tomorrow morning, when you see 404 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:50,240 Speaker 1: me on Fox and Friends from down here in Florida, 405 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 1: spoiler alert, I'm gonna have on a jacket, a shirt, 406 00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:56,919 Speaker 1: and shorts and flip flops. Nobody will even know. But 407 00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:58,919 Speaker 1: if you see me from behind, that's what it looks like. 408 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:01,479 Speaker 1: I just think it's important speak the truth, and the 409 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 1: truth is this notion. First of all, I don't like 410 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,119 Speaker 1: a three piece suit is not comfortable. I don't care 411 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:11,640 Speaker 1: what who you are. They're not that comfortable suit jackets. 412 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 1: But I understand for business purposes and everything else you 413 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 1: presentation matters. Okay, I'm willing to deal with the suit. 414 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,960 Speaker 1: But a tie, it's like a strangulation device. This makes 415 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 1: no sense. They're not comfortable for weddings, and it's the 416 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: way I feel about black shoes for weddings and funerals. Fine, 417 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:33,440 Speaker 1: I'll defend the tie. I will say this is men 418 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:37,639 Speaker 1: have almost no other way to distinguish ourselves, right because 419 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:41,399 Speaker 1: the average guy you wear like a white shirt, a 420 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:45,800 Speaker 1: dark jacket, and like whatever, you know, dark pants. Women 421 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 1: have all sorts of clothes that they can wear. The 422 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 1: tie is maybe the only thing that can provide a 423 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 1: little bit of flavor, right you get the different color tie, 424 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: the fun tie. I'm not alavor. He wants to share 425 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:02,679 Speaker 1: his flavor, not in favor of them. I'm just saying 426 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 1: there's a reason why when you go to a wedding, 427 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 1: for instance, every man is wearing the exact same outfit 428 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 1: and we all look a little bit ridiculous. Now, obviously 429 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:17,680 Speaker 1: that's because in general we don't matter. Weddings, I would say, 430 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:20,399 Speaker 1: are for women more than men. I'm probably just throwing 431 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 1: myself into a madman today. I know women like weddings 432 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 1: more than men. Just going to point it out. And 433 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 1: for everybody out there, by the way, who was listening 434 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:35,400 Speaker 1: right now, as a Southern man, if you have a 435 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:39,159 Speaker 1: fall wedding, I think that you hate everything that is 436 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 1: good about America, because the best thing about America is 437 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:47,400 Speaker 1: college football. And there's not a man alive who listens 438 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:49,679 Speaker 1: to this show in the South that is in favor 439 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 1: of having to spend a Saturday going to watch a wedding. 440 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter who's getting married over getting to watch 441 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,879 Speaker 1: college football games all day. Wow, do you even know? 442 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,399 Speaker 1: I thought, yer, and we don't watch college football at 443 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:05,160 Speaker 1: but I mean, have you did you even know that 444 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:09,280 Speaker 1: the fall wedding is like the third rail for a 445 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,400 Speaker 1: lot of people in the South that you can't even 446 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 1: have a fall wedding because college football is so big, 447 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:18,439 Speaker 1: learning something new every day, So it is a it 448 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:22,240 Speaker 1: is a monster faux paw. Now. I know everybody got 449 00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:24,399 Speaker 1: backed up because of COVID and every week for like 450 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 1: the next ten years is taken now and somebody out 451 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:29,920 Speaker 1: there's like the only time we could get married certain place. 452 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:32,400 Speaker 1: See what happens in the Northeast is we only get 453 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 1: certain long weekends that are travel weekends. Yes, And a 454 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 1: lot of people like to have the wedding Memorial Day weekend, 455 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:42,879 Speaker 1: like to have the wedding Labor Day weekend, Fourth of 456 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:46,920 Speaker 1: July weekend. That's a big ask, folks, that's a big 457 00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 1: I mean, if it's immediate family, of course they got 458 00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:51,920 Speaker 1: to be there. But if I'm like the date and 459 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,919 Speaker 1: you know, it's really you know, the second cousin, Sally 460 00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:57,720 Speaker 1: Bath or something who's having the wedding. Am I am? 461 00:26:57,720 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 1: I really supposed to give up my long weekend for 462 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:03,119 Speaker 1: the I mean, that's rough. I'm just saying you'll appreciate this. 463 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,719 Speaker 1: I went to a fall wedding once and I was like, 464 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:08,639 Speaker 1: how in the world did you pick this fall wedding? 465 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 1: And I was like, she's pregnant, right, and he was like, yeah, 466 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 1: she's pregnant. So you have to avoid the shotgun wedding 467 00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:17,720 Speaker 1: in the South, and you have to avoid the fall wedding. 468 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,119 Speaker 1: But if you have to choose between the two, you 469 00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 1: go fall wedding sometimes. So that was one one little 470 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 1: place where I thought we might I'll put out a poll. 471 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:28,119 Speaker 1: I'm wondering if people think if they think I'm crazy, 472 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 1: I am. I'm an evangelist for comfortable feat and no necktie. 473 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:37,440 Speaker 1: Also anti basically people talking on their phone. I saw 474 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:42,159 Speaker 1: angry tweets about facetiming. Oh I am. I am leading 475 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 1: an anti phone rudeness revolution. I am a one man 476 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 1: wrecking crew. I lose my mind and I don't care. 477 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:52,440 Speaker 1: I don't know what it is with people, but it's 478 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,040 Speaker 1: gotten worse than the last couple of years. I think 479 00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,480 Speaker 1: is everyone's now, Oh, well, FaceTime, I FaceTime for work. 480 00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 1: You know, it's all about video. If you are in 481 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:04,879 Speaker 1: a public place on FaceTime with speaker phone on, you 482 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:08,040 Speaker 1: are a barbarian who is destroying our civilization. Do you 483 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:11,679 Speaker 1: just to say, guy friends of yours? I didn't hear. 484 00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:16,760 Speaker 1: What do you FaceTime? Guy friends of yours? No? I'm 485 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:20,880 Speaker 1: just curious because the younger generations question no, no, no, no. 486 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I understand if you're dating a girl and 487 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 1: like you want to see her and you want to 488 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 1: FaceTime with her. But I am seeing increasingly like younger 489 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:33,640 Speaker 1: guys instead of like texting or calling a friend, they 490 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:36,480 Speaker 1: will FaceTime each other and just like talk to each 491 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:38,600 Speaker 1: other on FaceTime. I have not seen that. That's Oh, 492 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:41,960 Speaker 1: it's monstrously. It's monstrously. I guarantee you.

Civilization comes 516 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 1: at a price, Clay. Freedom isn't free, my friend. All right. 517 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:01,719 Speaker 1: The chaos that you are used to once you become 518 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:04,720 Speaker 1: apparent in terms of noise, in terms of all the 519 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:08,360 Speaker 1: zaniness and like you have like a zen to it 520 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 1: where you don't even hear it the same way as 521 00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 1: you did before you had kids. And by the way 522 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 1: Ali is saying about that, couldn't you just put televisions 523 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 1: at receptions?

Again, no, fall weddings, just don't do it. 526 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 1: Just don't do it. I got a suggestion to make 527 00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 1: you the hero of your next fall or anytime get together. 528 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 1: Imagine showing up with a digital file that allows you 529 00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 1: everyone to re experience memories that were trapped on all videotapes, 530 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 1: film reels, or hidden away in photo albums that haven't 531 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,080 Speaker 1: been opened in years.

For me, it 542 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 1: was old photos when I was at summer camp and 543 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 1: soccer teams and stuff like that was awesome.

We 556 00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 1: mentioned January six hearings are going on Trump is risk 557 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 1: bonding on truth social He says, never complained about the crowd. 558 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 1: It was massive. I didn't want to request we make 559 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,240 Speaker 1: room for people with guns to watch my speech? Who 560 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:14,000 Speaker 1: would ever want that? Not me? Besides no guns found 561 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 1: or brought into the Capitol building, where were all these guns? 562 00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 1: Sadly a gun was used on Ashley Babbitt with no 563 00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 1: price to pay against the person who used it. He 564 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 1: also says I hardly knew this person, Cassidy Hutchinson. I 565 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:29,840 Speaker 1: heard very negative things about her, a tony phony and 566 00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:32,960 Speaker 1: a leaker. She requested to go with certain others of 567 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:36,120 Speaker 1: the team to Florida after I served a full term. 568 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:40,000 Speaker 1: I personally turned her request down. Why did she want 569 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 1: to go with us if she felt we were so terrible? 570 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 1: I understand she was very upset and angry. I didn't 571 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,480 Speaker 1: want her to go or be a member of the team. 572 00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:51,680 Speaker 1: She is bad news. Okay, That is Trump responding to 573 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:54,640 Speaker 1: what is going on right now. In terms of the 574 00:32:54,840 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 1: January sixth hearing, Buck, you mentioned Elmo, and I believe 575 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:04,760 Speaker 1: that anyone who is getting their six month old to 576 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 1: five year old the COVID shot is so overcome with 577 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:14,360 Speaker 1: anxiety that they haven't looked at the actual data or science. 578 00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:17,960 Speaker 1: And this is scary to me. We got sesame street characters. 579 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 1: This is one hundred percent reel. This is not made up. Elmo, 580 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 1: the Sesame Street character went to get his COVID shot. 581 00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 1: This is what they played on Sesame Street. Listen, you 582 00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 1: were supertupid to date getting your COVID vaccine, Elmo. That 583 00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 1: was the little pitch, but that the king. I'm always 584 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:47,400 Speaker 1: really glad to have dott and there with him. I 585 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:50,640 Speaker 1: had a lot of questions about Elmo getting a COVID vaccine? 586 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:54,960 Speaker 1: Was it safe? Was it the right decision? I talked 587 00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 1: to our pediatrician so I could make the right choice. 588 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 1: I learned that Almo getting vaccinated is deepest ways to 589 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:07,200 Speaker 1: keep himself, friends, neighbors, and everyone else healthy and enjoying 590 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:10,520 Speaker 1: the things he love. This is puppet propaganda. I mean, 591 00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:12,719 Speaker 1: this is ray dust you as much as it does 592 00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 1: mean this is going on. First of all, the sound 593 00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:18,920 Speaker 1: of Elmo's voice to adults to bring this up again 594 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:21,879 Speaker 1: makes me want to jump through a plate glass window. Okay, 595 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:24,440 Speaker 1: start with that, and now just imagine I'm sitting there 596 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:27,359 Speaker 1: across from Carrie at a fancy restaurant in Miami, trying 597 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,719 Speaker 1: to have date night, and I hear Almo in the 598 00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:32,719 Speaker 1: background because someone's got their iPad out for their kid 599 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 1: because they don't actually teach the young one manners. I'm 600 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 1: just saying, probably because they can't find babysitters because they're 601 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 1: charging like one hundred dollars an hour. Now have you 602 00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:44,280 Speaker 1: seen the rates that they're getting. I mean, there's nobody 603 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 1: work in this country labor markets type these days. You 604 00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:48,719 Speaker 1: gotta pay up. I don't know what to say, but 605 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:52,239 Speaker 1: the iPad is not an acceptable stand in for it. 606 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 1: I like, the notion of this is the other thing too. 607 00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:58,200 Speaker 1: We never really talked about this, like my father's a 608 00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:00,719 Speaker 1: super nice guy, the notion of any of us though 609 00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:03,560 Speaker 1: we were kids like throwing it. This actually happened to 610 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:05,360 Speaker 1: be on Saturdays. Why I'm so fired off about this? 611 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:07,440 Speaker 1: There were there were kids next to us. I was 612 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 1: out with Carrie in Miami, a very nice, sort of 613 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 1: romantic Italian restaurant, Saturday night, eight o'clock. Okay, there's a table. 614 00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,520 Speaker 1: They've got three small children. One of them is screaming, 615 00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:19,200 Speaker 1: bloody murder. I mean, you know, just just yelling and 616 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 1: screaming and why oh the whole thing. And I'm sitting here, 617 00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:25,440 Speaker 1: I'm just like, do the parents think that anybody in 618 00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 1: this restaurant wants to be subjected to this day by 619 00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:30,600 Speaker 1: the way, didn't care then, you know nothing, just just 620 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:32,799 Speaker 1: let it rip. And I sit there and I think 621 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 1: to myself, with my family, never in a million years 622 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:38,960 Speaker 1: with this afloat. I've heard that a little bit on 623 00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:43,680 Speaker 1: the restaurant because I think you should have an expectation 624 00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:48,520 Speaker 1: on certain restaurants that kids aren't permitted in the like 625 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 1: young young kids that aren't able to control Friday and 626 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:54,360 Speaker 1: Saturday night. Nice restaurant should say nobody under the age 627 00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:57,359 Speaker 1: of you know, thirteen during the during the prime dinner hours. 628 00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:59,880 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, you know this is I don't believe in civilization, 629 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:04,120 Speaker 1: all right, I believe in decency. I don't. I don't 630 00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:05,400 Speaker 1: disagree with that at all, but I put it on 631 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:08,759 Speaker 1: the restaurant. I when those kids lose their minds, I've 632 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:11,480 Speaker 1: been there.

But am I gonna regret all 634 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 1: this when I have kids by the country billion percent? 635 00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:19,160 Speaker 1: Sometimes you've gotta give them the iPad while you're changing 636 00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 1: the diaper, saying that your kids would never throw fits 637 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:26,359 Speaker 1: in restaurants again, Ali, just grab it and then you're 638 00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:29,440 Speaker 1: gonna be in that situation, Are you kidding me?
