Let's 48 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 1: dive into some of the stories that are out there. 49 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,519 Speaker 1: By the way, our friend Congressman Jim Jordan will join 50 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 1: us at the top of the third hour for the 51 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: absolute latest on the budget machinations. I'm sure you talked 52 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,640 Speaker 1: quite a lot about this last week, Buck, as we 53 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 1: every six months or so have the will they or 54 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: won't they shut down the government story, and inevitably it 55 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:06,520 Speaker 1: all gets resolved. He's also trying to get Congress to 56 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 1: move on clarifying that one district court judge cannot just 57 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 1: override the president on executive prerogative issues that effectively that 58 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 1: could paralyze the government, and we're seeing attempts to do 59 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 1: that right now, and so there's legislation that is making 60 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 1: its way through that the House is working on. 61 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 2: To that end. He could speak about that, he will. 62 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, we talked, We told everybody this is important. I 63 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: think Buck that actually opposition to Trump wouldn't be primarily 64 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 1: coming from the Democrat Party. Necessarily, it would be individual 65 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 1: judges who are with the stroke of a pen, trying 66 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 1: to take away President Trump's executive authority. And ultimately we 67 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: are headed for a I think monstrous decision from the 68 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: Supreme Court at some point which attempts to lay out 69 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 1: the scope of executive authority and judicial review, which, to 70 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: be fair for those of us who are legal nerds, 71 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: is a dispute and a debate that has been occurring 72 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: all the way back to Marberry versus Madison, which was 73 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 1: one of the seminal Supreme Court cases in the early 74 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: nineteenth century. So I think we are headed for a 75 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 1: blockbuster Supreme Court decision as it pertains to the resistance 76 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,479 Speaker 1: in the judicial community, and we'll dive into that as well. Also, 77 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,840 Speaker 1: Buck is going to fill out a bracket. The NCUBA 78 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 1: Tournament is set. Congratulations to fans of the Florida Gators, 79 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 1: of the Auburn Tigers, Houston Cougars, and also the oh 80 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 1: Man this is now I'm falling aparpuck here the overall 81 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,600 Speaker 1: number one seeds of the NCUBLEA Tournament, the Duke Blue 82 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 1: Devils as well everybody out there.

Buck's favorite team as always 85 00:04:56,400 --> 00:05:00,279 Speaker 1: unless he is endorsing the Auburn Tigers is the six 86 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 1: seed out there if you just count straight through four 87 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 1: into the top two seeds of the next round, all right, 88 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 1: and fourteen Southeastern Conference teams, my buddy Greg Sanki, commissioner 89 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 1: of the SEC, having an incredible season. That is the 90 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:19,279 Speaker 1: most NCAA Tournament teams, including bucks wife's alma mater, the 91 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,279 Speaker 1: Florida Gators, who are a one seed. 92 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:22,279 Speaker 2: All right. Now. 93 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 1: The difference in carrying me is Carrie always roots for 94 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 1: the Gators, whereas I root for whichever team is most 95 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 1: beloved by wherever I am. Or Alabama, if I just 96 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 1: know they're gonna win, you are on the You are 97 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: always rooting for the home team at any venue that 98 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:40,599 Speaker 1: you have, you have attended.

Spoiler alert. I've got the Florida Gators winning 105 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 1: the NCAA Tournament. I think they are the best team 106 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 1: in college basketball right now. But we will post our 107 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 1: brackets for you at Clay and Buck. Buckett never filled 108 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 1: out a bracket? 109 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 2: Did you do it? Last year? 110 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:06,280 Speaker 1: Was the first time that you had ever filled out 111 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: an NCAA tournament bracket in your life? 112 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 2: Is that correctly? Last year or the year before was 113 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:10,840 Speaker 2: first time ever year? 114 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 1: So Saint John's, Saint John's New York City also a 115 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:17,600 Speaker 1: top seed with Rick Patino in your home state of 116 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 1: New York, in your home city of New York City. 117 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 1: So the East coast well represented by Saint John's. Also 118 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 1: Michigan States, and I'll give the top eight seeds out there. 119 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: All right, Let's go into this story, Buck, because I 120 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:34,119 Speaker 1: do think it's it's really fascinating in many ways. After 121 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty four election loss, you and I came 122 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,799 Speaker 1: on and we said, Okay, what are Democrats going to decide? 123 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:44,160 Speaker 1: How are they going to analyze this defeat? All fifty 124 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 1: states they did worse than they did in twenty twenty, 125 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:51,600 Speaker 1: Trump wins the popular vote. He wins the best Republican 126 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 1: election victory when you consider Senate House and the White 127 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 1: House going all the way back to nineteen eighty eight. 128 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris as one and a half billion dollars buck 129 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 1: to spend, which is one of the most dollar figures 130 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 1: in one hundred days that we've ever seen. They got 131 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: their message out. They tried to argue, oh, we have 132 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 1: a messaging problem, not a message problem, right, in other words, 133 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: people aren't hearing our arguments. That's why we're losing. No. 134 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 2: Actually, I think. 135 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: The results show that people are hearing your arguments, and that, 136 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: in fact, is what the problem is. It's not a 137 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: messaging issue. It's that your message stinks. And so when 138 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 1: you look at this, I want to let you hear this. 139 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: Both NBC News and CNN came out with polls over 140 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 1: the weekend that told the exact same story, and that 141 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: story was the Democrat Party has never been in the 142 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 1: history of all these polls going back to nineteen ninety 143 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 1: and nineteen ninety two, less popular than it is today. 144 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 1: Let's start with the c Repole poll results. This is 145 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 1: on air CNN saying staggering brutal reality of Democrat disapproval. 146 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 3: This is Cut twelve, a brand new exclusive CNN poll 147 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 3: that paints a brutal reality for Democrats as they struggle 148 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 3: to mount a unified opposition to President Trump. American's favorable 149 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 3: views of the Democratic Party brand are at a record low, 150 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 3: just twenty nine percent. That's compared to thirty six percent 151 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 3: for Republicans. It is the lowest ever recorded for Democrats 152 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 3: and CNN polling going back more than thirty years. As 153 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 3: you can see, the party's numbers dropping a staggering twenty 154 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:40,200 Speaker 3: points in just four years. 155 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 1: Okay, that's CNN and might say, Okay, maybe this is 156 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 1: an outlier. I think many of you out there are 157 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: probably saying, who in the world are the twenty nine 158 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 1: percent that actually approve this is the cadre of crazy, 159 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 1: broken brain left wingers that we talk about on a 160 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: regular basis. Basically, seventy five percent of the country regil 161 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:06,079 Speaker 1: acting them right now. But NBC also had a staggering result, 162 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 1: and they talked about it on your favorite show, Morning Joe. 163 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 1: This is Mika Brzhinski saying the Democrat Party has never 164 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,680 Speaker 1: been less popular in the history of their polling as well. 165 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 2: Listen, cut back. 166 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 4: Let's start with the new polling that shows the Democratic 167 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 4: Party has preached an all time low in popularity. The 168 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 4: latest NBC News national poll finds that a majority of 169 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 4: registered voters fifty five percent have a negative view of 170 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 4: the party, while twenty seven percent, just over a quarter 171 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 4: of registered voters have a positive view of the party. 172 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 4: That's the party's lowest rating in NBC News polling dating 173 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:47,080 Speaker 4: back to nineteen ninety. Meanwhile, though, a new CNNSSRS poll 174 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 4: finds the Democratic Party's favorability rating at just twenty nine percent, 175 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 4: a record low going back to nineteen ninety two and 176 00:09:56,320 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 4: a drop of twenty points since January of twenty two one. 177 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 1: Okay, I think there are a lot of reasons why 178 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: this is happening, Buck, but the primary one is Democrats 179 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 1: are wrong on every single issue. And I think what 180 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: you're seeing is there's a certain legacy approval where people 181 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 1: just say, I'm a Democrat, I'm gonna support them. But 182 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: it isn't that high when you're talking twenty seven percent 183 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: positive on NBC, twenty nine percent positive on CNN, and 184 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 1: both to post record lows at the exact same time 185 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 1: they have nothing to offer their own side at this 186 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 1: point in time, which I've never seen anything quite like 187 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 1: this before. Yes, they just lost, but they lost in 188 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen, and that was emotionally devastating for them. Nonetheless, 189 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 1: right away, I mean after election Day, the maniacs were 190 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: in the streets, truly in the streets. I saw them 191 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 1: in New York City hashtag resistance. We're gonna We're gonna 192 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 1: do everything. We're gonna have the media and the intelligence 193 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 1: community and and everybody working to hamstring Trump in every 194 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: way possible. Don't worry. They promised, will make sure that 195 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 1: we get revenge on him, will stop his agenda and 196 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: get revenge on him. Well, guess what. They can't stop 197 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: his agenda really now. The only thing they've been able 198 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 1: to do is with the judges. They can't stop him 199 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:23,959 Speaker 1: from becoming president anymore. And I think there are days 200 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 1: of promising that Trump is going to pay the price 201 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 1: for standing in the way of the left wing destruction 202 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 1: of the country. I think those days are gone, and 203 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: I think that what we're seeing is the recognition among 204 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 1: the left wing home team that the people that they've 205 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,320 Speaker 1: put on the field have absolutely failed them. I have 206 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:44,200 Speaker 1: not seen anything like this since Obama beaten McCain in 207 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: two thousand and eight. And even then, it wasn't long 208 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:54,559 Speaker 1: before Obama's radicalism and the recognition of the growth of 209 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 1: government led to the Tea Party, and you know, things 210 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 1: got going very quickly. Maybe the Democrats will get their 211 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: act together this time around, Clay, But I think the 212 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,840 Speaker 1: problem is they can't even find people to rally around 213 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: right now. Actually, step back from that, they can't find 214 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:14,320 Speaker 1: ideas to rally around. Yeah, that's you know, okay. Obama 215 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 1: won in two thousand and eight. You had a huge 216 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: financial collapse, you know, the problems of the Iraq and 217 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 1: Afghanistan wars. He was very lucky with the timing in 218 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: a lot of ways. He comes in. Republicans still believed 219 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 1: in what they had believed in before. Maybe they'd learned 220 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 1: some painful lessons about interventionism, but it wasn't oh my gosh, 221 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,319 Speaker 1: nobody thinks that we should have a secure border. In fact, 222 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 1: Obama won on traditional marriage and a secure border and 223 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 1: cutting waste in government. He pushed ideas to become president 224 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:44,719 Speaker 1: that he didn't believe in at all, but those were 225 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 1: popular ideas. The problem Democrats face right now is the 226 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 1: party was hired, Their party was hijacked. 227 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 2: Meaning they were in control. Right It wasn't just a faction. 228 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 1: The faction had seized the cockpit of the plane by 229 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 1: the lunatics, and they won't move off these lunatic ideas. 230 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: The ideas are not popular that they push. Can let's 231 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,199 Speaker 1: talk about this when we come back for a moment. 232 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 1: Can you think it's it's unheard of, I think for 233 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: a party to destroy itself like this such that. 234 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 2: Can you even think of anything that. 235 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: Democrats are right on right now? I mean, it's fairly 236 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 1: commonplace for people out there to say, hey, you know, 237 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 1: I agree with the Republicans on this, the Democrats on that. 238 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:33,560 Speaker 1: That's how elections are decided. Right now, I can't even 239 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 1: think of anything that Democrats are right on right now 240 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 1: where I look at it, you know, say, hey, you 241 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 1: know what, maybe the evidence, maybe the data, maybe the 242 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 1: argument itself is a little bit more on their side 243 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 1: than on. 244 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:46,720 Speaker 2: The Republican side. 245 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:50,199 Speaker 1: I don't even know where they fight right now, because 246 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 1: they're fighting on such unpopular ground that the vast majority 247 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,200 Speaker 1: seventy five percent of Americans roll their eyes at. Trump 248 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 1: has absorbed some of the best ideas that were not 249 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 1: left wing entirely but had a lot of support on 250 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:10,440 Speaker 1: the left. Ideas like hey, the working class in this 251 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 1: country needs to not be fed into the financial wood 252 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 1: chipper so that we can get cheap stuff from China. Right, 253 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: that used to be more of a center left issue 254 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 1: in the Bush era Republican Party. When you say this, now, 255 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 1: I think there's always this rejection. Oh no, that's not no, No, 256 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 1: I'm not talking about Trump's Republican Party, which is what 257 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: it has been for a decade. Now, I'm talking about 258 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: before that, even some of the health stuff. Look at 259 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 1: RFK Junior, look at non interventionism, non interventionism which I 260 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 1: think Tulsi Gabbard represents in some way in this new 261 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 1: Trump administration, among others. But Clay, non interventionism used to 262 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 1: be considered part and parcel of the peace movement in 263 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 1: many ways in this country, right or the people that 264 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,120 Speaker 1: like the code Pink types almost And now we know 265 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 1: that was all a fraud. Whole other conversation, So yes, 266 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 1: we will talk more about about that. And also team 267 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:03,600 Speaker 1: pulled Bill maher Batia sunger Argum. Did you see I 268 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 1: saw it over the weekend. Yes, we should pull that 269 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 1: if we don't have it. She talked to Bill said, 270 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 1: don't you regret voting for Trump? And she just which 271 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,440 Speaker 1: I was shocked he went in that direction, because no, actually, 272 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 1: Trump voters are all doing backflips. They don't regret it 273 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 1: at all. They the problem is they're hoping they don't 274 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 1: pull a hammy when they do the backflip. Like I've 275 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 1: never seen so many happy Trump voters in my life. 276 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 1: We should get into that here and just a little bit. 277 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: You know, there's a compelling video online that talks about 278 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 1: a prediction, a prediction of disruption to our economy in 279 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 1: the future. Look, I'm hoping it doesn't happen, but I 280 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 1: certainly trust the person who made the prediction because it's 281 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 1: my dad, Mason Sexton Senior. This is my father's area 282 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 1: of expertise the financial markets and how they affect everyday Americans, 283 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:48,360 Speaker 1: and I think it could be really helpful for you 284 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 1: growing up. My dad was a stock market guy, and 285 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 1: he became famous when I was a kid back in 286 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 1: the eighties for calling the crash of eighty seven in 287 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 1: advance on TV. He nailed it, and since then he's 288 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 1: been advised some of the biggest hedge funds in the world. 289 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 1: Now he's come out publicly with another major prediction. You 290 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 1: can see it at this website Disruption twenty twenty five 291 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 1: dot com.

And Clay, you know, not only 301 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 1: we should dive into this some more. Not only are 302 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 1: the Democrats at the lowest point that they have been 303 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,920 Speaker 1: in the history of this kind of pulling, Trump is 304 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 1: at his highest approval rating. So to our point before 305 00:16:55,520 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 1: about the sense of despair, the del it's just despair 306 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 1: that is growing among so many Democrats and activists and 307 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 1: lunatics who have been doing so much to harm this 308 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 1: country for so long. Clay, It's one thing when your 309 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 1: party's in a rough spot. It's another thing when the 310 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:16,120 Speaker 1: party is that that opposes you is in its best position, right, 311 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 1: So you really have to look at the at the 312 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 1: full gap between the two. It's not even just Republicans 313 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 1: are at all. I'm sorry, Democrats are at an all 314 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: time low. Trump is at an all time high right now. 315 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 1: It is really extraordinary. And you know, again I've been 316 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,640 Speaker 1: saying for a while, and I think it's true. We're 317 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 1: not just talking to right wingers on this show. We're 318 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,680 Speaker 1: talking to seventy five percent of saying Americans. There's about 319 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,639 Speaker 1: twenty five percent of people out there that have lost 320 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:50,399 Speaker 1: their minds. Trump is speaking to the other seventy five percent. 321 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:52,920 Speaker 1: And I know there are a lot of you out 322 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 1: there right now who weren't Trump voters in twenty sixteen 323 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 1: that are listening to us right now, and you're saying, hey, 324 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 1: keep killing it, including on the border, where the numbers 325 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,919 Speaker 1: are incredible. Look, a couple of things in life are 326 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 1: certain death and taxes.

We got a 342 00:18:56,040 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 1: lot to talk about Venezuelan, big time bat over the 343 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 1: deportation of those illegals. We'll get into that, Buck, did 344 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 1: you see this just happened? I think that like the 345 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:11,639 Speaker 1: last half hour, the White House has released a video 346 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:17,160 Speaker 1: to closing time which has the memorable line you you know, uh, 347 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 1: you don't have to stay here, but you can't. Oh sorry, 348 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:24,040 Speaker 1: you don't have to go to stay here? 349 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:24,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. 350 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:29,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, of the Venezuelans being deported. It is going to 351 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,359 Speaker 1: go viral on a level that I'm just telling you 352 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,400 Speaker 1: it is amazing, whoever whoever on the social media team 353 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,120 Speaker 1: at the White House, and it's from the White House 354 00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 1: official account, And in fact, let's let's dive into that 355 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 1: here for just a sec because I do think, Buck, 356 00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:49,680 Speaker 1: this is going to turn into a big, a big 357 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 1: storyline going forward. For those of you over the weekend 358 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 1: who were not aware, there were two hundred plus violent 359 00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: rapist felons, criminals who were illegally in the country, many 360 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:07,440 Speaker 1: of whom were Venezuelan gang members, and Trump put them 361 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 1: on a plane to deport them. And as they were 362 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:17,160 Speaker 1: being deported, a federal district court judge came out and said, no, 363 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:21,120 Speaker 1: you can't deport these guys. You have to bring them 364 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:26,679 Speaker 1: back to the United States. The Trump team because the flight, 365 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 1: they said, had already reached international waters. They said, no, 366 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 1: we're not going to comply with this federal court district 367 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 1: Federal district Court judges order, and they deported all of 368 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:45,480 Speaker 1: the two hundred to I believe Nicaragua, where they have 369 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:52,200 Speaker 1: been taken into a prison. Now in university. I thought 370 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: it was because my apologies, okay, we have talked about 371 00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 1: this before. 372 00:20:57,640 --> 00:20:57,920 Speaker 2: Buck. 373 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 1: When I practice law in the United States, Virgin Islands. 374 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 1: The prisons that exist in the United States Virgin Islands 375 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 1: are terrifying. That is still under the United States flag, 376 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 1: but you do not want to be in an outside 377 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 1: of the continental United States prison prisoners get scared when 378 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:23,640 Speaker 1: they find out that they are going to be put 379 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 1: in prisons like these in El Salvador as just happened. 380 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 1: And so there is going to be a major court 381 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,880 Speaker 1: battle over this and other issues because many of these 382 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: federal district court judges have decided they are the resistance 383 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 1: to the Trump regime. But we just talked about the 384 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,639 Speaker 1: fact that the Democrat Party's overall favorability has collapsed to 385 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 1: levels never seen before. And right now the district court judges, 386 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:56,359 Speaker 1: many of them appointed by Obama, they are the front 387 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:58,399 Speaker 1: lines of the resistance and they are trying to stop 388 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,080 Speaker 1: what Trump is doing. We're going to talk to Congress 389 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 1: and Jim Jordan about that in the third hour and 390 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 1: what can be done or what Congress is trying to 391 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:09,440 Speaker 1: do on that. But first I think this you're laying 392 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 1: this out, but this new approach to dealing with Remember, 393 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 1: these are criminal, illegal aliens in this gang, which is 394 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 1: a designated terrorist organization, and the Trump administration is using 395 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:28,160 Speaker 1: a long standing power of the President of the Alien 396 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:32,479 Speaker 1: Enemies Act to deal with them so effectively. If you're 397 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 1: an illegal alien and you're a part of al Qaida, 398 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:37,200 Speaker 1: or you're a part of Trenda Aragua, you could find 399 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 1: yourself sent down to Al Salvador, to this particular prison. 400 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 1: Keep in mind, Al Salvador now very safe place with 401 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 1: a very happy populace. It's not like you're being sent 402 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:51,919 Speaker 1: to some country that is a mess and has this 403 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: huge crime problem and it doesn't have those things. Because 404 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:58,000 Speaker 1: of the giant prison that they've put all these different 405 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:02,880 Speaker 1: gang members into. Buquale has created this system where if 406 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:05,199 Speaker 1: you think you're going to prey upon the citizens of 407 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,399 Speaker 1: Al Salvador as a gang member anymore, you're going to 408 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 1: find yourself in this prison. It's going to be miserable 409 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:11,200 Speaker 1: and a lot of them are never getting out. A 410 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 1: lot of them have done absolutely horrible things. But Marco 411 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 1: Rubio put this out. He said, we have sent two 412 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 1: dangerous top MS thirteen leaders, plus twenty one of its 413 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:22,640 Speaker 1: most wanted back to face justice in El Salvador, as 414 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 1: promised by the President. We sent over two hundred and 415 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:29,920 Speaker 1: fifty alien enemy members of trended Aragua, which Al Salvador 416 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,359 Speaker 1: has agreed to hold in their very good jails at 417 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 1: a fair price. That will also save our taxpayer dollars. 418 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,919 Speaker 1: President Buqueli is a strong leader, he's also a great friend, 419 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 1: so this is also Doge approved. It will save money. 420 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:46,680 Speaker 1: The amount of money to send these people to prison 421 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:48,400 Speaker 1: in the US is a tremendous amount, by the way, 422 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,640 Speaker 1: per person, so a lot cheaper in El Salvador. Well, 423 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:56,880 Speaker 1: this also puts Democrats in a really challenging position. Are 424 00:23:56,920 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 1: you going to come out aggressively and say, hey, the illegal, 425 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:06,360 Speaker 1: violent felon criminal gang members have to be brought back 426 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 1: to the United States, or are you going to just 427 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:13,439 Speaker 1: kind of pretend that this story doesn't exist. Or and 428 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:15,919 Speaker 1: this is the pathway that I think they're going to 429 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:19,399 Speaker 1: take Trump Buck. I think they're going to argue that 430 00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 1: Trump is a fascist dictator who is not obeying the 431 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 1: rulings of the federal judiciary and that as a result, 432 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:36,880 Speaker 1: this is a sign of his overreaching power. Now they're 433 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:40,200 Speaker 1: going to try, I think, to make that argument without 434 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:44,439 Speaker 1: looking at the underlying decision that was made by this 435 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 1: Federal District Court judge and larger picture this is and 436 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:52,679 Speaker 1: this is what we're going to talk with Jim Jordan about. 437 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:56,919 Speaker 1: This is a really significant issue regardless of who the 438 00:24:56,920 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 1: president is. And we talked about this Buck when there 439 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 1: were a lot of federal court and also circuit court, 440 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 1: which is the next level up judges trying to look 441 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 1: at what was going on with the border. Do you 442 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 1: remember this, and they were getting struck down eventually because 443 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,399 Speaker 1: they were saying, well, the president has the right to 444 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 1: make policy as it pertains to immigration, individual states don't. 445 00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:24,480 Speaker 1: There were lots of battles between the State of Texas 446 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 1: and the Biden administration. Now all of these same judges 447 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:32,680 Speaker 1: are lining up and saying, well, the president really doesn't 448 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 1: have authority to do this, and instead, I, as a 449 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,120 Speaker 1: just a federal district court judge, and there are hundreds 450 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:43,880 Speaker 1: of them, I'm going to stop the entire executive branch 451 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:48,880 Speaker 1: from acting based on my individual decision. And even if 452 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:53,120 Speaker 1: they later get overturned, as is often the case, they 453 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 1: can really stop the gears from turning for months. And 454 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 1: this is what the resistance is really going to look Clay, 455 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 1: because they know, and this is important that if the 456 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:10,119 Speaker 1: House flips back to Democrat control in twenty twenty six 457 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 1: next year. Basically, Trump's ability to get anything through Congress 458 00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:16,399 Speaker 1: is going to be limited, and they're just going to 459 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:18,399 Speaker 1: try to run out the clock on him. Which is 460 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:20,919 Speaker 1: why Trump needs to be as he is moving so 461 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:23,440 Speaker 1: rapidly because there are going to be so many impediments 462 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:27,919 Speaker 1: put up against him. This also you're seeing in the 463 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:32,959 Speaker 1: way that the judges now are going to clay. I 464 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:37,320 Speaker 1: think people are talking about bringing you know, impeachment hearings now. 465 00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:40,160 Speaker 1: It's not going to work because you have to get 466 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 1: to a threshold. We don't have the Senate threshold to 467 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:46,919 Speaker 1: do it. But there's a lot of anger when you 468 00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:49,919 Speaker 1: see what's going on with some of these resistance judges. 469 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 1: And there are also people who at every time during 470 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 1: the first Trump administration are federal judges of lifetime tenure. 471 00:26:55,840 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 1: They've been doing this nonsense the whole time. Fifteen judicial 472 00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 1: or universal injunctions in the first or in one month 473 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:09,359 Speaker 1: of Trump's first term, versus fourteen in all or I believe, 474 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:13,720 Speaker 1: in three of Biden's four years. So you can either 475 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,360 Speaker 1: go one month of Trump or three years of Biden 476 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 1: the same number of judicial injunctions given with you know, 477 00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 1: universal universal hold. 478 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:24,680 Speaker 2: On things, which is crazy. 479 00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:28,399 Speaker 1: It's just it's just absolutely nuts and something needs to 480 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 1: be done about it. 481 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:29,959 Speaker 3: Uh. 482 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 2: And then there's also Trump voiding the pardons. 483 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 1: Of which we should get to the Auto Department is 484 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:38,879 Speaker 1: very very autopens. We'll discuss that in a little bit 485 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 1: because we're still on the judges right now. 486 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:45,879 Speaker 2: But what really is the is a judge allowed. 487 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 1: Is a federal judge supposed to be able to say that, 488 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:51,240 Speaker 1: let's say, Trump couldn't have couldn't have ordered those strikes 489 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 1: on the hoo thies. Can a federal judge just enjoy 490 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 1: the president sor you can't do that. You're the commander 491 00:27:57,760 --> 00:27:59,639 Speaker 1: in chief, but you can't order a strike on an 492 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:03,439 Speaker 1: enemy combat and abroad because of blah blah the constitution 493 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 1: or something. If that's the case, we actually no longer 494 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 1: have a presidency, right And the fact that eventually the 495 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 1: Supreme Court would overturn that judge is not good enough. Yeah, 496 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 1: I'm really curious what Jim Jordan, who's going to join 497 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 1: us at the top of the third hour, is going 498 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:22,160 Speaker 1: to argue here. A part of me thinks that we should, 499 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 1: maybe when it comes to presidential authority, require multiple judges 500 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:31,919 Speaker 1: to sign off on a decision such as this. In 501 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 1: other words, giving any individual judge the ability to enjoin, 502 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 1: that is, stop a president from undertaking an action under 503 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:45,240 Speaker 1: his executive authority when there are hundreds of them is 504 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 1: far too much power, I think for an individual district 505 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 1: court judge to have. And the reason a lot of 506 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:55,239 Speaker 1: these decisions get overturned is they eventually go to the 507 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 1: circuit court. And there are thirteen circuits all over the 508 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 1: United States on a federal level, and that requires multiple 509 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 1: judges to act, And so a part of me wonders 510 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 1: whether we should have a system where, let's say, three 511 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:13,520 Speaker 1: judges have to all look at something when it comes 512 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 1: to enjoining the president's actions and undertaking that action, as 513 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 1: opposed to one. Now, well, this actually come. These these 514 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 1: federal judges are all a creation of Congress. So the 515 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 1: notion that they could be coequal with the president, I 516 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 1: think is inherently flawed to begin with. The only one 517 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 1: that's constitutionally in a position to enjoin the president should 518 00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 1: be the Supreme Court. Well, it is super interesting, right, 519 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 1: because I do think sometimes, for instance, we told you 520 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 1: birthright citizenship is such an expansive undertaking that you would 521 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:50,160 Speaker 1: want that to go to judicial review, and the fact 522 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 1: that federal court judges are enjoining it actually makes sense 523 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 1: it's going to go to the Supreme Court. Where I 524 00:29:56,160 --> 00:30:02,600 Speaker 1: think it gets more challenging is in individual presidential decisions 525 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 1: of executive authority, like on a border related issue. Hey, 526 00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:11,959 Speaker 1: I'm deporting two hundred and fifty violent Venezuelan criminals and 527 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:15,960 Speaker 1: we are sending them to El Salvador. That should be 528 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 1: within the province of the president's executive authority. The fact 529 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 1: that individual actions like those are being enjoined to me 530 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 1: is a direct attack on the executive authority of the 531 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 1: president by an unelected federal district court judge, of whom 532 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 1: there are hundreds. So at least if you required three judges, 533 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 1: for instance, to sign off on an order, it would 534 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:45,280 Speaker 1: create more understanding. But again, I think this is an 535 00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 1: example of the direct conflict between judicial oversight of executive authority. 536 00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: How much can a court micro manage the power of 537 00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 1: the president And what percentage of people do you think 538 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 1: are in faith of two hundred and fifty some odd 539 00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 1: violent felons who are illegally in the United States being 540 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:12,040 Speaker 1: sent out of the country. This is a strange I 541 00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 1: think this is a great ground for Republicans and Trump 542 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:17,960 Speaker 1: to fight on, and I think it's an awful one 543 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 1: for Democrats, which is why I'm curious how they're going 544 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 1: to respond. 545 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:21,680 Speaker 2: Overall. 546 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:24,160 Speaker 1: Let me tell you, after more than a year of 547 00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 1: war tear pain in Israel, the need for security essentials 548 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:32,160 Speaker 1: and support for first responders still critical.
