WEBVTT - Buck’s First Thoughts - Fight The Forever Covid Lockdown 0:00:00.440 --> 0:00:03.240 This is bucks first thoughts, the news you need to 0:00:03.240 --> 0:00:05.840 get for your day in forty five minutes. Make sure 0:00:05.840 --> 0:00:08.520 you subscribe on the iHeart app or wherever you get 0:00:08.560 --> 0:00:15.760 your podcasts. Perhaps the Biden team was never serious about 0:00:15.800 --> 0:00:18.599 calls for unity because they certainly didn't last very long, 0:00:18.680 --> 0:00:22.960 did they. As the nation prepares for the January twentieth 0:00:22.960 --> 0:00:27.600 peaceful transfer of power, there's an air of menace hanging 0:00:27.600 --> 0:00:32.000 over our nation's capital. Instead of pomp and circumstance, DC 0:00:32.479 --> 0:00:37.400 is bristling with barbed wire and HESCO barriers and thousands 0:00:37.520 --> 0:00:43.680 and thousands of National Guard deployed. What's going on here? 0:00:44.760 --> 0:00:48.440 It's hard to think that national healing is the Biden 0:00:48.479 --> 0:00:52.280 Harris objective while their underlings transform the streets of DC 0:00:53.159 --> 0:00:58.080 into a fortress on lockdown. You've no doubt heard the 0:00:58.120 --> 0:01:00.520 media outlet's talking about how there will be more National 0:01:00.520 --> 0:01:04.160 Guard deployed in DC than in Iraq and Afghanistan, two 0:01:04.319 --> 0:01:10.280 theaters of war combined. They will share this continuously until 0:01:10.319 --> 0:01:14.200 the moment Biden is sworn in, and then well afterwards, 0:01:14.800 --> 0:01:18.240 because the whole purpose here is to heighten the public's 0:01:18.400 --> 0:01:25.360 anxiety of the perceived risk of another insurrection. Oh what 0:01:25.440 --> 0:01:28.040 was that insurrection the first time around? You might ask, 0:01:28.360 --> 0:01:32.560 You mean the one that involved a mostly peaceful protest 0:01:32.680 --> 0:01:35.280 that then did have a section of it devolved into 0:01:35.319 --> 0:01:39.080 a riot and one police officer was killed, one protester 0:01:39.240 --> 0:01:43.240 was killed by direct action of law enforcement and also 0:01:43.280 --> 0:01:47.440 of participants, depending on which one we're talking about, And 0:01:48.560 --> 0:01:51.040 they were trying to do what exactly. The belief is 0:01:51.040 --> 0:01:53.760 that they were going to overthrow the government. That QAnon 0:01:54.040 --> 0:01:57.000 Shaman or whatever walking around in a furry hat with 0:01:57.040 --> 0:02:01.440 a spear was really going to see control of the Congress. 0:02:02.440 --> 0:02:06.240 I don't think anybody, including that guy, believe that's what 0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:09.520 was going to happen. But you see, the theatrics that 0:02:09.560 --> 0:02:14.079 are underway in DC are meant to exceed the actual threat. 0:02:15.400 --> 0:02:17.760 We've talked about the Capitol Hill ride on January sixth. 0:02:17.760 --> 0:02:20.240 It was lawless, it was awful, it was stupid, and 0:02:20.320 --> 0:02:22.400 anyone who broke the law should be held to account, 0:02:22.400 --> 0:02:26.480 But there was no real effort to overthrow the government 0:02:26.520 --> 0:02:31.160 by force. Calling that an insurrection is an exaggeration, and 0:02:31.240 --> 0:02:34.480 it's an intentional one. It's one with real consequences. The 0:02:34.680 --> 0:02:40.000 unprecedented martial preparations for this inauguration are meant to look 0:02:40.000 --> 0:02:42.840 as though they're preparing for a foreign military to invade 0:02:42.919 --> 0:02:47.040 our nation's capital at any minute. What's the real threat here? 0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:51.800 Internet chatter? Do you remember how we were told constantly 0:02:51.919 --> 0:02:56.520 during the Obama administration about how there were an unprecedented 0:02:56.600 --> 0:03:01.680 number of threats online against President Obama? And then you 0:03:01.720 --> 0:03:05.280 also recall that there were people who somehow lost their 0:03:05.400 --> 0:03:09.440 jobs for mere criticism of Obama or for crossing the 0:03:09.520 --> 0:03:13.280 press when it came to Obama. Because they create a 0:03:13.400 --> 0:03:17.920 climate of fear in which everyone gets treated as though 0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:24.760 they're insurrectionists, as though they're far radical extremists. That's why 0:03:24.800 --> 0:03:28.440 they exaggerate all of this all along. They expand out 0:03:28.440 --> 0:03:31.200 the net. They want to capture everyone. Whether you're reasonable 0:03:31.320 --> 0:03:36.040 or not, you get lumped in with the crazies. Right 0:03:36.400 --> 0:03:39.600 and speech equals violence, you see, so your words have 0:03:39.720 --> 0:03:43.520 to be suppressed. It's not enough merely to say we 0:03:43.600 --> 0:03:46.120 can have political differences. You are no longer in this 0:03:46.160 --> 0:03:49.280 country allowed to say what you think happened in the election. 0:03:50.240 --> 0:03:54.119 They're saying, including the lieutenant governor of Pennsylvania, for example, 0:03:54.400 --> 0:03:58.600 that that has not protected speech. Now, what's the formulation 0:03:58.640 --> 0:04:02.320 they use for that. Well, if people can say that 0:04:02.440 --> 0:04:06.360 they think the election was stolen, then people will act 0:04:06.440 --> 0:04:09.160 on that. They'll be violent because of that, and so 0:04:09.200 --> 0:04:12.480 we have to stop it. You see, this is what 0:04:12.520 --> 0:04:15.840 they do. If people can say that they thought that 0:04:15.880 --> 0:04:20.520 Barack Obama was a socialist and a bad president, a leftist, 0:04:20.839 --> 0:04:23.320 then there'll be other people who decide to act on 0:04:23.360 --> 0:04:26.080 that and write in threats, and the Secret Service then 0:04:26.120 --> 0:04:28.520 has to investigate it. They lump it all together. They 0:04:28.560 --> 0:04:32.080 treat it like it's the same. What an effective mechanism 0:04:32.080 --> 0:04:38.560 of control. They're trying to show us right now what 0:04:38.680 --> 0:04:41.039 the next four years are going to look like. That's 0:04:41.040 --> 0:04:43.440 why there are photos of National Guard troops sleeping on 0:04:43.440 --> 0:04:46.680 the marble floors of the Capitol Building. That's meant to 0:04:46.720 --> 0:04:51.040 get all of this attention. Very few people have asked, 0:04:51.080 --> 0:04:54.000 are these measures even necessary? Don't they have sleeping pads 0:04:54.000 --> 0:04:56.640 and sleeping bags, and why are they on the cold 0:04:56.680 --> 0:05:00.640 marble floor of the Capitol building. Doesn't that seem excessive? 0:05:01.680 --> 0:05:04.560 But the implication is clear. The Democrats want America to 0:05:04.720 --> 0:05:09.320 c DC as a city under siege, and that means 0:05:09.360 --> 0:05:11.680 that you have to ask the next question, who is 0:05:11.720 --> 0:05:18.160 it under siege? From Trump voters. Those are the optics 0:05:18.279 --> 0:05:21.719 right now. That's what they want people to think and 0:05:21.839 --> 0:05:25.000 believe about our nation's capital. They are setting up a 0:05:25.040 --> 0:05:28.920 show of force commensurate with their overblown fears of this 0:05:29.000 --> 0:05:33.760 recent right wing coup attempt from Trump voters. They've convinced 0:05:33.800 --> 0:05:36.960 a large number of Democrats that these extreme measures are 0:05:37.040 --> 0:05:42.320 necessary because unless they were to deploy twenty six twenty 0:05:42.360 --> 0:05:46.440 seven thousand National Guard plus all the Secret Service and FBI, 0:05:46.760 --> 0:05:49.920 unless they deploy all of them, another right wing faction 0:05:50.000 --> 0:05:52.880 will attempt a second overthrow of the United States government. 0:05:53.839 --> 0:05:56.839 Hold on a second. There wasn't a first attempt at 0:05:56.839 --> 0:06:00.240 an overthrow of the government. There was a riot. There 0:06:00.320 --> 0:06:02.599 was a protest that got out of control and turned 0:06:02.640 --> 0:06:06.279 into in part, a riot in the United States capital 0:06:06.960 --> 0:06:09.520 that did not last very long, was put down, and 0:06:09.560 --> 0:06:12.720 for which people are being punished, in some cases punished severely. 0:06:14.400 --> 0:06:16.440 Keep in mind, while all this is happening, that there's 0:06:16.440 --> 0:06:20.480 actually no there's no intelligence or proof that such a 0:06:20.520 --> 0:06:24.280 plot against our government is imminent. There might be some 0:06:24.400 --> 0:06:26.960 online chatter from people who are upset about the twenty 0:06:27.000 --> 0:06:31.120 twenty election outcome. They're venting, they're trying to get attention 0:06:31.200 --> 0:06:34.919 from their buddies. But that's not a serious or credible threat. 0:06:34.920 --> 0:06:37.480 And there are threats all the time. People who work 0:06:37.520 --> 0:06:40.640 in media get threats. I get threats. What do you 0:06:40.680 --> 0:06:44.720 do about this? You go on with life. Unless it's 0:06:44.760 --> 0:06:48.839 credible and actionable, you can't worry about it. And yet 0:06:48.880 --> 0:06:52.359 what we see here is the elevation of bits of 0:06:52.440 --> 0:06:56.560 internet chatter to being an imminent threat to our very 0:06:56.600 --> 0:06:59.920 system of government. That's what they want America to thing 0:07:00.279 --> 0:07:03.960 in DC right now. And let's not forget the four 0:07:04.040 --> 0:07:08.720 years of Russia collusion lunacy, since we're talking about conspiracy 0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:13.560 theories here, that was mainstream among elected Democrats and their 0:07:13.560 --> 0:07:18.000 corporate media lackeys, completely mainstream Russia collusion. You said it, 0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:22.120 you got more clicks, more viewers. There was never any 0:07:22.120 --> 0:07:25.120 punishment for this. There was never any backlash against it 0:07:25.320 --> 0:07:30.200 from the system, from the elites, from the apparatus. Look, 0:07:30.280 --> 0:07:34.600 let's be very clear, from a purely security based standpoint, 0:07:36.200 --> 0:07:39.600 the military preparations this week in DC are an overreaction. 0:07:40.640 --> 0:07:45.040 DC is the most heavily police and patrolled city in America. 0:07:45.120 --> 0:07:48.600 Even during normal times, just try to cross the street 0:07:49.720 --> 0:07:54.000 and jaywalk near a Capitol police officer under under normal circumstances, 0:07:54.320 --> 0:07:57.760 and you'll see the ferocity with which even the most 0:07:58.160 --> 0:08:02.480 mundane and trivial rules are forced in and around our 0:08:02.560 --> 0:08:07.760 nation's capital. And it's understandable that there are some concern. 0:08:07.880 --> 0:08:12.239 There's understandable that crowd control should be taken into account. 0:08:12.400 --> 0:08:15.920 Let's also remember that in twenty sixteen, Antifa was running 0:08:16.000 --> 0:08:19.560 riot through the streets of DC and there were no 0:08:19.680 --> 0:08:22.520 major charges brought against them. They lit a limousine on 0:08:22.640 --> 0:08:27.280 fire in our nation's capital in broad daylight on Inauguration Day, 0:08:27.840 --> 0:08:32.679 and we're screaming, not my president. But that was just fine. 0:08:33.559 --> 0:08:37.199 There was no real worry about that. According to the Democrats, 0:08:37.280 --> 0:08:44.600 that was a mostly peaceful protest. Every American should feel like, 0:08:44.640 --> 0:08:49.040 on a process level, the continuation of our political tradition 0:08:49.080 --> 0:08:53.480 of the peaceful transfer of power is important and should 0:08:53.480 --> 0:08:58.360 be supported, and it almost will be a peaceful, orderly event. 0:08:58.679 --> 0:09:01.319 Whatever Trump voters think of the integrity of the last 0:09:01.320 --> 0:09:06.319 election or the policies of the incoming administration, there should 0:09:06.320 --> 0:09:08.480 be an understanding that this is how it goes right. 0:09:08.520 --> 0:09:10.520 And I know our politics are messy. I know people 0:09:10.520 --> 0:09:14.880 are angry right now, but we have ways to deal 0:09:14.920 --> 0:09:18.559 with that. But what the Democrat Party is doing right 0:09:18.600 --> 0:09:23.800 now is intentionally making the inauguration seem like it's occurring 0:09:24.120 --> 0:09:28.079 under a state of actual siege of our capital, as 0:09:28.120 --> 0:09:30.960 though this is eighteen twelve and the British are on 0:09:31.040 --> 0:09:34.400 the way to burn down the White House. This is nuts, 0:09:35.559 --> 0:09:38.280 and we know who they blame for this. This is 0:09:38.320 --> 0:09:41.800 being done for political leverage and almost certainly is going 0:09:41.840 --> 0:09:46.440 to be the justification for more aggressive surveillance, not against 0:09:46.600 --> 0:09:50.480 actual extremists or people who are planning violence, but against 0:09:50.520 --> 0:09:56.000 people with pro Trump anti Democrat views. You see, this 0:09:56.080 --> 0:10:00.320 is part of the playbook. The Democrats are all posing 0:10:00.360 --> 0:10:04.959 as aggrieved victims, now terrified for their very existence, so 0:10:05.000 --> 0:10:07.760 that they can make real victims of their political opponents 0:10:07.880 --> 0:10:12.400 later on. This, unfortunately, is likely to work, which means 0:10:12.400 --> 0:10:16.920 it's a troubling time for the country. The people claiming 0:10:16.960 --> 0:10:20.840 to be the oppressed, the people claiming to be the 0:10:20.880 --> 0:10:24.959 ones that aren't allowed to share their politics publicly without fear, 0:10:25.160 --> 0:10:28.280 are the ones who are actually doing the purges. They're 0:10:28.280 --> 0:10:32.080 the ones who are actually shutting down news sites, shutting 0:10:32.120 --> 0:10:37.360 down social media apps, and calling for boycotts and the 0:10:37.440 --> 0:10:41.000 surveillance state to expand to keep an eye on their 0:10:41.040 --> 0:10:46.320 political opponents. That's what's happening right now. We can all 0:10:46.360 --> 0:10:50.640 see it. And that's why even the pretense of calls 0:10:50.640 --> 0:10:57.280 for unity from the Biden Harris Camp ring hollow. You're 0:10:57.360 --> 0:11:00.439 listening to the Buck Sexton Show podcast, make sure you 0:11:00.480 --> 0:11:03.360 subscribe to the podcast on the iHeart radio app or 0:11:03.360 --> 0:11:07.920 wherever you get your podcasts. Absolutely, and it's so easily debunked. 0:11:08.000 --> 0:11:11.520 It's simply false that thousands of dead people voted. It 0:11:11.600 --> 0:11:15.440 is false that there were thousands of ballot signature signatures 0:11:15.440 --> 0:11:19.520 that were fake. It's also false that dominion voting machines 0:11:19.600 --> 0:11:23.160 switched thousands of votes. None of this is true. And 0:11:23.280 --> 0:11:26.320 all Republican leaders have to do is to say that 0:11:26.400 --> 0:11:29.160 the election was not stolen. And if they do that, 0:11:29.240 --> 0:11:32.280 then they can calm down tension. All you have to 0:11:32.280 --> 0:11:35.000 do is submit. Congressman Ted Loose says, all if it 0:11:35.120 --> 0:11:37.840 was bending the knee, say everything you said was wrong, 0:11:38.200 --> 0:11:40.760 and then we can have unity until we need you 0:11:40.800 --> 0:11:42.319 to bend the knee again and admit that you're wrong 0:11:42.360 --> 0:11:45.719 on something else. Well, why isn't that working better? I 0:11:45.800 --> 0:11:51.480 don't understand why. Why isn't it really bringing everybody together? Gee, 0:11:51.520 --> 0:11:56.080 I don't know, Ted, Maybe some people still have questions 0:11:56.120 --> 0:11:58.640 and they don't trust Democrats who lied about the last 0:11:58.640 --> 0:12:00.920 election for four years and still do to this day. 0:12:02.320 --> 0:12:08.640 All Right, they still continue with this nonsense, but it's 0:12:08.679 --> 0:12:11.000 something that the left wants to hear. They want to believe. 0:12:11.000 --> 0:12:13.320 The Democrats want to believe that they have extended a 0:12:13.360 --> 0:12:15.240 hand to the other side and we're the ones who 0:12:15.240 --> 0:12:18.600 are slapping it away. The Democrats want to believe that 0:12:20.400 --> 0:12:24.280 it is conservatives who are being unreasonable in this whole 0:12:24.320 --> 0:12:28.000 process and are adding fuel to the fire of our 0:12:28.040 --> 0:12:33.720 political discontent, and the Democrats are just being great, open minded, 0:12:34.679 --> 0:12:39.319 patriotic Americans, who you know, come on, we see what's 0:12:39.320 --> 0:12:43.160 really happening. They're putting people on TV night after night, 0:12:43.240 --> 0:12:47.800 day after day who are saying that Trump terrorists are 0:12:47.840 --> 0:12:50.200 more dangerous than al Qaeda. We played that audio for 0:12:50.200 --> 0:12:53.240 you yesterday. They're actually saying this stuff, that we should 0:12:53.360 --> 0:12:57.520 increase the surveillance state to look at Trump voters, and 0:12:57.600 --> 0:13:01.040 that we should scan the National Guard, we should vet 0:13:01.160 --> 0:13:06.040 National Guard members for Trumpian sympathies. I'm not exaggerating here. 0:13:06.320 --> 0:13:08.680 You go MSNBC some guy who used to be a 0:13:08.760 --> 0:13:13.440 senior FBI official. If that's not terrifying enough, Figliutsi here 0:13:13.440 --> 0:13:16.280 he has played thirteen. There's more and more evidence develops, 0:13:16.320 --> 0:13:19.640 Andrea that there were active and former military and police 0:13:19.640 --> 0:13:22.600 within that insurrections crowd. I think this is a very 0:13:22.720 --> 0:13:26.560 valid precautionary measure, but I want to also caution that 0:13:26.600 --> 0:13:29.720 this not be some false sense of security. Well, everyone 0:13:30.120 --> 0:13:33.480 has been checked out by the FBI. Let's understand something, 0:13:33.480 --> 0:13:36.640 and we learned it painfully during the insurrection. Though. Signs 0:13:36.640 --> 0:13:40.160 of radicalization really are not that someone has a criminal 0:13:40.200 --> 0:13:43.000 record or that someone is on a terrorist watch list, 0:13:43.080 --> 0:13:47.520 but rather that they have online postings that indicate radicalization 0:13:47.600 --> 0:13:50.559 and an intention for violence. The FBI doesn't have those 0:13:50.640 --> 0:13:53.520 kinds of resources, nor do they have a time the 0:13:53.559 --> 0:13:55.800 timeframe in this race against the clock to check out 0:13:55.840 --> 0:13:59.480 twenty five thousand people's social media postings, nor may they 0:13:59.520 --> 0:14:02.880 even have legal authority to do so. That's my concern. 0:14:03.280 --> 0:14:05.880 I just want to point out that this this has 0:14:05.880 --> 0:14:08.560 been widely reported. I should say this should have been 0:14:08.559 --> 0:14:10.760 widely reported. It has been reported, but not nearly enough. 0:14:11.400 --> 0:14:15.000 Hashtag kill Mike Pence was trending for a while on 0:14:15.040 --> 0:14:20.600 Twitter recently. Okay, that was a hashtag on Twitter, and 0:14:20.760 --> 0:14:22.440 I just want to do do you think the FBI 0:14:22.640 --> 0:14:25.200 is going to track down all those people? Do you 0:14:25.240 --> 0:14:28.960 think they're all gonna all gonna face prosecution for a 0:14:29.120 --> 0:14:32.960 threat against the federal official and interstate commerce? No they 0:14:32.960 --> 0:14:36.560 are not. Oh wow, it's almost like there's a huge 0:14:36.560 --> 0:14:41.160 double standard here. Political violence is something the left excelled 0:14:41.200 --> 0:14:44.720 in through all of twenty twenty. But there was one 0:14:44.880 --> 0:14:47.960 incident that they can attribute to the right at the 0:14:48.040 --> 0:14:51.560 Capitol Building after the election in the beginning of twenty 0:14:51.640 --> 0:14:55.080 twenty one. And we're supposed to forget who was burning 0:14:55.120 --> 0:14:59.000 down buildings all summer. We're supposed to forget who was 0:14:59.240 --> 0:15:03.280 rioting a atacking police. Attacking a federal courthouse is also 0:15:03.320 --> 0:15:07.040 an attack on our system. For example. Yeah, I know, 0:15:07.080 --> 0:15:09.840 it's not the Capitol Building, but it's also, you know, 0:15:10.080 --> 0:15:12.920 not an outhouse in the middle of a field somewhere 0:15:12.920 --> 0:15:16.200 that no one cares about. It's a federal building. They 0:15:16.240 --> 0:15:19.640 try to light it on fire in Portland, but don't 0:15:19.680 --> 0:15:22.160 you don't see any effort to Oh no, Antifa's just 0:15:22.200 --> 0:15:24.000 an idea, they say, it's not even a movement. It's 0:15:24.000 --> 0:15:28.320 not even a real thing. They're not scanning people social 0:15:28.360 --> 0:15:33.680 media enough. What what'll get you, what'll get you tossed 0:15:33.720 --> 0:15:35.520 off social media? What'll get you in trouble? These days? 0:15:35.520 --> 0:15:38.720 You already know you can't say the election was stolen, 0:15:39.120 --> 0:15:44.120 which is that that is First Amendment protected speech. But 0:15:44.240 --> 0:15:46.640 you can't say it. If you do, they'll take action 0:15:46.680 --> 0:15:49.480 against you. And how far a leap is it from 0:15:49.800 --> 0:15:52.480 you are now kicked off social media to you are 0:15:52.520 --> 0:15:55.680 now on the radar? I just have to remind you 0:15:55.680 --> 0:16:01.640 of this. They used informants, they use used agents, you know, 0:16:02.240 --> 0:16:05.760 people acting on behalf of the government to go after 0:16:06.480 --> 0:16:09.880 George Papadopoulos. And they used FISA warrants on carter page. 0:16:11.800 --> 0:16:14.080 What was that all about? Trying to get after Trump 0:16:14.120 --> 0:16:17.280 and go after Trump people? But those are completely absurd, 0:16:17.840 --> 0:16:20.480 fabricated cases, you don't think. And they paid no real 0:16:20.520 --> 0:16:22.480 penalty for this. A few people the FBI lost their 0:16:22.560 --> 0:16:27.320 jobs or their pensions. Nobody went to prison. Andy McCabe, 0:16:27.400 --> 0:16:31.280 former acting FBI director, lied about it. No real consequences 0:16:31.320 --> 0:16:35.720 for him. So what's the message. What's the lesson? More importantly, 0:16:35.760 --> 0:16:37.920 what's the lesson that we take from this? They can 0:16:37.960 --> 0:16:41.280 get away with stuff like this, but now they're they're 0:16:41.320 --> 0:16:46.680 bringing pressure, they're mobilizing all across society for the suppression 0:16:47.200 --> 0:16:53.320 of what you could say is Trumpist ideas. Okay, they're 0:16:53.360 --> 0:16:58.800 they're trying to destroy Trumpist ideas, not even just repudiate 0:16:58.840 --> 0:17:01.680 Trump the man. And so what are you even allowed 0:17:01.720 --> 0:17:04.119 to say online? Are you allowed to say that the 0:17:04.160 --> 0:17:08.199 Russia collusion investigation was a hoax? I'm saying it, But 0:17:08.400 --> 0:17:11.520 is that now? Is that? Do independent fact checkers disagree 0:17:11.560 --> 0:17:13.879 with me? They're gonna shut that down too. They're going 0:17:13.920 --> 0:17:16.679 to rewrite the history. In fact, they're even telling us 0:17:16.720 --> 0:17:19.840 they plan to rewrite our history. Play sixteen. They will 0:17:19.920 --> 0:17:23.720 not write their history. We will write their history, and 0:17:23.840 --> 0:17:29.199 their shame will last forever. They are carved like they 0:17:29.240 --> 0:17:34.480 are carved, like etching into granite, granit onto history's list 0:17:34.600 --> 0:17:39.639 of villains in this country, Mark Meadows, Lindsey Graham, Kevin McCarthy, 0:17:39.800 --> 0:17:44.159 Josh Holly, Ted Cruz, Looe Brooks, and two man and 0:17:44.280 --> 0:17:47.159 match it. There will be no forgetting, There will be 0:17:47.200 --> 0:17:50.679 no forgiveness. We do not seek retribution, but we do 0:17:50.760 --> 0:17:54.760 seek accountability and justice for an assaultant attack on the 0:17:54.800 --> 0:17:58.479 government of the United States of America. They killed six people, 0:17:58.800 --> 0:18:01.000 and for the first time in the history of our 0:18:01.080 --> 0:18:03.880 count from one hundred and fifty years after the end 0:18:03.880 --> 0:18:07.280 of the Civil War, the Confederate flag at long last 0:18:07.480 --> 0:18:11.680 reached United States Capital. It was braided through the road 0:18:11.760 --> 0:18:17.280 funda as this liberal fascistic mob desecrated the floors of 0:18:17.320 --> 0:18:19.760 the House of Representatives in the state. They don't get 0:18:19.800 --> 0:18:22.200 to rewrite what happened. I want to be very clear. 0:18:22.280 --> 0:18:27.080 They do seek retribution. Don't forget that. This is the 0:18:27.200 --> 0:18:34.240 Buck Sexton Show podcast. Follow Buck on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. Historically, 0:18:34.320 --> 0:18:37.480 we will find out who he's beholden to, who pulls 0:18:37.520 --> 0:18:40.439 his strings. I would love to see his phone records 0:18:40.440 --> 0:18:42.720 to see whether he was talking to Putin the day 0:18:42.800 --> 0:18:47.600 that the insurgents invaded our capital. But we now know 0:18:47.960 --> 0:18:52.480 that not just him, but his enablers, his accomplices, his 0:18:52.640 --> 0:18:58.639 cult members have the same disregard for democracy. Do you 0:18:58.640 --> 0:19:03.199 think we need an eleven type commission to investigate and 0:19:03.280 --> 0:19:07.320 report everything that they can pull together and explain what happened. 0:19:07.600 --> 0:19:10.520 I do. Let me again to your point of who 0:19:10.600 --> 0:19:13.120 is he beholden to? As I've said over and over, 0:19:13.800 --> 0:19:15.600 as I said to him in that picture with my 0:19:15.640 --> 0:19:18.119 blue suit right as I was leaving. What I was 0:19:18.160 --> 0:19:21.360 saying to him, as I was pointing rudely at him, 0:19:22.000 --> 0:19:25.679 with you, mister president, all roads lead to Putin. I 0:19:25.720 --> 0:19:29.440 don't know what Putin has on him politically, financially or personally, 0:19:29.840 --> 0:19:32.240 but what happened last week was a gift to Putin 0:19:32.280 --> 0:19:36.159 because Puttin wants to undermine democracy in our country and 0:19:36.200 --> 0:19:40.320 throughout the world. And these people, unbeknownst to them, maybe 0:19:40.359 --> 0:19:43.880 are Putin puppets. They were doing Putin's business when they 0:19:43.960 --> 0:19:47.720 did that at the incitement of an insurrection by the 0:19:47.760 --> 0:19:50.919 President of the United States. So yes, we should have 0:19:50.960 --> 0:19:54.280 a nine to eleven commission, and there is strong support 0:19:54.320 --> 0:19:57.120 in the Congress to do that. You need to hear 0:19:57.119 --> 0:20:00.840 this because this is what is going to happen. That's 0:20:01.480 --> 0:20:12.439 hurry and Nancy Pelosi podcastle commission. Chardonay. Nancy strikes again. 0:20:13.440 --> 0:20:16.520 She's sitting there with Hillary and they're having this chit 0:20:16.640 --> 0:20:21.600 chat about Putin, Putin's role in this. She says she 0:20:21.600 --> 0:20:23.720 wants to pull the president's phone records. You heard it. 0:20:24.280 --> 0:20:26.199 Let's pull the president's phone records to see if he's 0:20:26.240 --> 0:20:27.840 talking to Putin. On the day of what happened at 0:20:27.880 --> 0:20:32.800 Capitol Hill. These people are insane. This has nothing to 0:20:32.840 --> 0:20:35.480 do with Putin or Russia. Nothing. And yeah, you could 0:20:35.480 --> 0:20:37.320 always make the case that any day that's a bad 0:20:37.440 --> 0:20:41.000 day for America, any day of riots or lawlessness. And 0:20:41.040 --> 0:20:43.840 we know this is true. China also benefits from that. 0:20:44.560 --> 0:20:47.439 Any country that is an adversary of the United States 0:20:47.440 --> 0:20:55.040 likes to see unrest, destabilization, dissension, you know, at the 0:20:55.040 --> 0:20:59.600 deepest levels divisiveness. Yeah, they benefit from that. But that's 0:20:59.600 --> 0:21:03.080 not you nique to the situation at all. On behalf 0:21:03.080 --> 0:21:07.000 of Putin, really quwan'm shaman or whatever running around there 0:21:07.000 --> 0:21:09.520 with the furry had on. He was doing this on 0:21:09.720 --> 0:21:16.480 behalf of Putin unbeknownst to him though. Look, this is 0:21:16.520 --> 0:21:18.560 one of the reasons that I was so and I 0:21:18.640 --> 0:21:21.520 know people the initial reaction was, but buck, people are 0:21:21.560 --> 0:21:23.560 so upset, they're so angry, And I said, I know, 0:21:23.640 --> 0:21:28.080 but this is you know, it's it's like the boss 0:21:28.359 --> 0:21:30.240 in all the movies. You know, this was really you 0:21:30.280 --> 0:21:33.639 saw this a lot in nineties movies, nineties action movies. 0:21:34.359 --> 0:21:40.280 There's this you know, smug jerk of a boss. And 0:21:40.320 --> 0:21:42.680 this is often true in like the cop movies, and 0:21:42.760 --> 0:21:44.840 you know the rogue police officer who's trying to get 0:21:44.840 --> 0:21:49.119 the job done, and what he really wants is to 0:21:49.160 --> 0:21:53.440 get up in the in the hero's face and just 0:21:53.600 --> 0:21:57.560 antagonize him and be so you know, unfair to him 0:21:57.600 --> 0:22:00.760 that he finally just you know, pops them one in 0:22:00.760 --> 0:22:03.440 the face, punches them right in the jaw. And as 0:22:03.520 --> 0:22:07.840 much as that may feel like it's a reaction that's 0:22:07.880 --> 0:22:10.600 been building up over time, guess what. And it's hand 0:22:10.640 --> 0:22:12.679 in your badge and your gun. You know, now your 0:22:12.760 --> 0:22:17.040 job's in jeopardy and this smug bureaucrat gets what he wants. 0:22:18.320 --> 0:22:22.159 I knew that this Capitol Hill riot was going to 0:22:22.240 --> 0:22:27.200 be used to the maximum by the Democrats. The moment 0:22:27.200 --> 0:22:29.280 that it started happening, I said, oh my god, what 0:22:29.920 --> 0:22:32.600 is going on here? First of all, that it was 0:22:32.680 --> 0:22:34.879 just it was just upsetting. It should not have happened 0:22:34.880 --> 0:22:38.760 on any level as an American. But beyond that, I said, 0:22:38.800 --> 0:22:42.119 they're they're going to take something that's you know, on 0:22:42.160 --> 0:22:45.000 the scale of let's say, on the scale of insurrection, 0:22:45.520 --> 0:22:49.080 one being a person standing on a street corner with 0:22:49.119 --> 0:22:52.320 a sign that says, you know, overthrow America by himself 0:22:52.600 --> 0:22:58.480 and ten being you know, battalion level armed insurgency guys 0:22:58.520 --> 0:23:02.159 with machine gun and heavy weapons making a move to 0:23:02.240 --> 0:23:05.960 secure government buildings and opening fire. Right, that's a ten. 0:23:06.080 --> 0:23:08.760 That's a straight up coup. You know, this was like 0:23:08.800 --> 0:23:15.240 a I don't know, a four or five maybe, and 0:23:15.280 --> 0:23:18.520 they're treating it like it was a nine. That's the point. 0:23:18.520 --> 0:23:20.719 They're treating it like it went far beyond, like this 0:23:20.840 --> 0:23:24.120 was we just barely maintained control of the Capitol. They're 0:23:24.400 --> 0:23:28.960 grossly exaggerated, but I knew they would because there's political 0:23:29.680 --> 0:23:33.560 benefit in it for them. And some of you saying buckets, 0:23:33.600 --> 0:23:35.760 it's a two or three. You know, you understand what 0:23:35.800 --> 0:23:39.520 I'm saying that they've taken this and made it a 0:23:40.560 --> 0:23:43.680 They've treated it like this was a Trump backed full on. 0:23:43.840 --> 0:23:45.560 They're calling it an insurrection. I mean, you know what 0:23:45.640 --> 0:23:48.280 that means. I mean, there's a reason we have something 0:23:48.320 --> 0:23:51.360 called the Insurrection Act. It's to put down armed rebellions 0:23:51.520 --> 0:23:54.679 within our own borders. That's what they The history that 0:23:54.720 --> 0:23:59.560 Democrats are writing right now is they they just avoided 0:24:01.000 --> 0:24:04.320 thousands of people on the Capitol on Capitol grounds that 0:24:04.480 --> 0:24:08.399 they've said kidnapping and even executing members of Congress, you know, 0:24:08.440 --> 0:24:12.480 opening fire and seizing the Capitol building and creating a 0:24:12.520 --> 0:24:15.720 military confrontation. They're treating it like it's that's what happened. 0:24:16.080 --> 0:24:20.320 That is not what happened. Okay, it was a riot. 0:24:21.040 --> 0:24:24.120 It was people being stupid. They got rowdy, and some 0:24:24.160 --> 0:24:26.880 people got hurt, some people got killed. Shouldn't have happened. 0:24:27.720 --> 0:24:33.399 But this is not an open coup effort against the 0:24:33.480 --> 0:24:38.320 United States government. But because they're setting that narrative in place, 0:24:38.720 --> 0:24:42.120 the Democrats are solidifying that narrative right now as they're 0:24:42.160 --> 0:24:46.280 also taking power of the government. Their reaction to this, 0:24:46.440 --> 0:24:47.959 and this is what I'm trying to tell you, this 0:24:47.960 --> 0:24:50.080 is what I'm trying to warn you of. Their reaction, 0:24:50.400 --> 0:24:53.240 as unfair as it is, as wrong as it is, 0:24:53.240 --> 0:24:57.640 is going to be based upon treating this as an 0:24:57.680 --> 0:25:03.160 actual armed insurrection again the United States government, do you see, Yes, 0:25:03.240 --> 0:25:05.280 we're going to argue against us and try to convince 0:25:05.320 --> 0:25:07.520 as many of our fellow Americans as possible. Come on, guys, 0:25:07.560 --> 0:25:10.800 it wasn't what they're saying it is. It was a riot, 0:25:10.880 --> 0:25:15.040 it was wrong, but it wasn't a real concerted effort 0:25:15.119 --> 0:25:18.119 called on by the actual president United States to overthrow 0:25:18.160 --> 0:25:22.600 the government. But all the all the pieces they're putting 0:25:22.600 --> 0:25:26.000 in place right now, all the things that they're talking about, 0:25:26.240 --> 0:25:29.879 expansion of surveillance of their political opponents, changing laws and 0:25:29.960 --> 0:25:34.359
