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 --> 00:00:07,480
Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome in everybody to the Monday edition

3
00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:11,600
Speaker 1: of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show. We have

4
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:14,640
Speaker 1: always so much to talk about after the weekend, and

5
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:17,760
Speaker 1: Clay and I are recovering from a bit of celebration

6
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:19,759
Speaker 1: the end of last week the one year anniversary of

7
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 1: the show. Had a big party in New York. And

8
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:24,239
Speaker 1: appreciate all the nice comments people put up on the

9
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:26,200
Speaker 1: photos and everything else. I also hope you all had

10
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:30,920
Speaker 1: a very happy Father's Day. Those Clay's pointed out apparently

11
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:33,280
Speaker 1: I look exactly like my dad did at my age.

12
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,199
Speaker 1: The photo is right. I mean, I get but I

13
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,280
Speaker 1: can't believe it. It's it's it's you guys look like

14
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 1: you're twins. Yeah, so you know the hair, jeans, My friends,

15
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:44,839
Speaker 1: what can I tell you? We got a lot to

16
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:47,720
Speaker 1: get into here. We got the I mean, we'll talk

17
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 1: about it. Just because people see him to be fascinated

18
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 1: by this moment where Biden had a little stumble on

19
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 1: his bike. Look, I'm obviously not a big bicycle guy.

20
00:00:56,440 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 1: You know those bicyclists they sometimes throw at a little

21
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 1: glance the way of us eat scooter people. So I'm

22
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 1: not a bicycle guy per se. But Biden had a

23
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 1: little fall and he's okay, he's fine. But people are

24
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 1: looking at this more seriously and saying, this is the

25
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 1: leader of the free world, this guy who there's already

26
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 1: so many questions about his cognition, his energy, his health,

27
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,920
Speaker 1: and the way that any Trump, any Trump stumble was

28
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 1: covered even the most minute thing, versus the way they

29
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 1: do for Biden. Look, we know they're lying, and they

30
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 1: lie because they think they can get away with it,

31
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 1: but we still pointed out it's a reminder. It's not

32
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 1: going to change their minds, but it's a reminder for

33
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 1: all of us that we're right and they're wrong, which

34
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 1: is always worthwhile. So Biden on the bike. We also

35
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 1: have the mother of that police officers shot last week,

36
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 1: or two police officers shot, but one of them is

37
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 1: openly blaming George gas scone. And also on the law

38
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 1: enforcement front, there's now video showing that the I mean

39
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 1: this was you read this and said you, I mean,

40
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 1: this can't be true, but apparently it is. You've all

41
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 1: de cops never even tried to the classroom for seventy

42
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 1: seven minutes. According to a new report based on video

43
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 1: from the surveillance video from the hallway, so this whole

44
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,359
Speaker 1: the door was so well locked they couldn't get in.

45
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 1: They had to get the key. It may the reporting

46
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,080
Speaker 1: keeps changing, and obviously none of us were there, so

47
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 1: we didn't see exactly what happened. But as of right now,

48
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 1: we'll talk more about this. It looked like they didn't

49
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 1: even try to open the door. But a broader theme

50
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,920
Speaker 1: for today, I think is what they want to focus

51
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 1: on the Democrats, what their priorities are, and what the

52
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 1: priorities of the American people may be in this moment

53
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 1: should be. In this moment, we have people still dealing

54
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 1: with the very high gas prices. We have parents who

55
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 1: still cannot find adequate baby formula, and for parents for

56
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 1: whom baby formula is the only option because of special

57
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,520
Speaker 1: dietary needs. I have Celiac disease for example, that can

58
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 1: actually manifest very young. Now that's not an issue necessarily

59
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 1: for somebody on the baby formula side, but there are

60
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 1: certain dietary restrictions. As I understand, Clay is correct right

61
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,519
Speaker 1: about infants. I've never had an infant yet, but my

62
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 1: understanding is that sometimes babies can only have formula for

63
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:12,920
Speaker 1: certain reasons. And that's still happening right now. All that's

64
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 1: going on, and you still have the focus on the

65
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 1: transgender agenda and a whole range of other issues that

66
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 1: people are saying, we're getting into election high season here, folks.

67
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,520
Speaker 1: They've got to be kidding. And now you're seeing clay

68
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 1: people like Margaret Brandon over at CBS. Some of the

69
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 1: ultra establishment journals are starting to say, Hey, Biden team,

70
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 1: you guys have to come up with better lies, because

71
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 1: we can't help you if you were this incompetent. Play

72
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: clip four. Here's CBS over the weekend with one of

73
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 1: the Biden economic advisors kits like that. We can move

74
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 1: forward in the near future. It will not only help

75
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 1: in lowering prices, but it will send a signal to

76
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 1: the markets and the global economy that the United States

77
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 1: is really deadly serious about taking on this hiking taxes,

78
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 1: isn't going to change the price of milk? When and

79
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: how are you actually putting forward this package? The package

80
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: has been debated, it's been worked through, they've failed back

81
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: when build back better's version of it, so it's inflations.

82
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 1: The number one priority right now? When are you scheduling

83
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 1: a vote to do the things you just laid out.

84
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,040
Speaker 1: We're working very closely with congressional leadership, with Senate leadership

85
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 1: on that. They got nothing play. Yeah, and I think

86
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:33,839
Speaker 1: what has happened? You mentioned Biden falling on Saturday morning

87
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:38,040
Speaker 1: at Rehoboth Beach in Delaware. I'm sure most of you

88
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 1: have seen that video. Although compared to Trump walking down

89
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,600
Speaker 1: a platform I think at West Point and the raising

90
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 1: of the glass that turned into such a monster storyline,

91
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 1: there hasn't been as much discussion in the left wing

92
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 1: media of Biden falling off his bike. But to me,

93
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 1: that was a really significant moment because when you have

94
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 1: in the public's mind the idea that you are incompetent

95
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 1: and that you are aging. They put him on a

96
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,839
Speaker 1: bike in the first place so they can try to

97
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,160
Speaker 1: counter the idea that this is an aged man who

98
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 1: is not physically competent, so they put him on a bike.

99
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: I don't know why they let him ride around on

100
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 1: a bike. It seems dangerous in and of itself, but

101
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 1: they dress him all up in his athletic gear and

102
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:34,040
Speaker 1: even had biking gloves on. You know, he's going really slow.

103
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 1: That's a super expensive bike evidently, and the way that

104
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 1: he fell. We have a great guy who does tremendous

105
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:46,160
Speaker 1: work analyzing sports injuries for US, doctor David Chow, who

106
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 1: used to be the team physician for the Chargers back

107
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 1: in the day, and he wrote a piece at OutKick

108
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 1: Buck He said, if that Joe Biden was very lucky

109
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 1: he didn't break his hip, the way he fell, the

110
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,480
Speaker 1: angle in which that he hit the ground, and I

111
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 1: know Biden popped back up, but there are those still

112
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 1: image photographs of Biden incompetent looking to crepit, laying on

113
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 1: the ground, and I don't think you can come back

114
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:18,480
Speaker 1: from those kind of clips because it just provides further

115
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 1: evidence of what most Americans already believe, which is Joe

116
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 1: Biden is too old for this job. And I think

117
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 1: it ties in with the questions that you're seeing suddenly

118
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 1: emerge aggressively on CBS and CNN and NBC and all

119
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:37,479
Speaker 1: these places that would otherwise typically be providing cover for

120
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 1: this administration. They've turned on Joe Biden. And the goal,

121
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 1: even though Biden wants to run again, is to make

122
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 1: it impossible for him to run again. In twenty twenty four,

123
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 1: and I believe when we see this wave or this

124
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:56,360
Speaker 1: red tsunami, it's going to be increasingly difficult for Biden

125
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 1: to wait. They say he wants to wait till like

126
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 1: March of twenty three to announce his official run. I

127
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 1: don't know that that's going to be capable possible. And

128
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 1: back to the narrative that they're trying to formulate of

129
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 1: why you should think this administration is doing well. I

130
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:15,080
Speaker 1: think there is a little bit of pushback now from

131
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:19,920
Speaker 1: as I said, the establishment journos, the the Democrat apparatus,

132
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 1: propaganda pushers, and that means people that are supposed to

133
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 1: be covering the White House asking tough question Think about

134
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 1: the kinds of tough questions if you wanted to. I mean,

135
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 1: we sit here and we're doing like you know, Steve

136
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 1: Ducey or Peter Ducey pardon me, highlight reels from just

137
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 1: being able to ask real questions, were wanting to ask

138
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 1: real questions in the White House. I mean you had

139
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 1: you had the Brennan asking how is raising taxes going

140
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 1: to help with the price of the fantastic question? The

141
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 1: obvious answer is it's not, And only an idiot would

142
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 1: think otherwise, So why they even talking about that. But

143
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: it's like the talking points, it's mechanical for Democrats. I

144
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 1: don't know what else to say. But Janet Yellen to

145
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 1: our point about how you're you're always supposed to be

146
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 1: able to point to some people in the administration of

147
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 1: the opposing party and say, at least that guy, that

148
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 1: gal is really competent. You would think the Treasury secretary

149
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 1: in a moment like this, you'd hope that would be

150
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,760
Speaker 1: the case. Here is Janet Yellen, lady who was pushing

151
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 1: forward transitory inflation. What she said on ABC News again

152
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 1: Regime Media over the weekend, play clip five. I expect

153
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:31,200
Speaker 1: the economy to slow. Oh, it's been growing at a

154
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 1: very rapid rate. Is the economy is the labor market

155
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 1: is recovered and we've reached full employment. Clay, the economy

156
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 1: contracted last yes quarter. How is she saying it's growing

157
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: at a rapid rate. She's lying, And I believe, and

158
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 1: I think you're with me, Buck, I would at this

159
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 1: point be very surprised if we're not in a recession

160
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 1: at this exact moment. And for reminders out there, you

161
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,920
Speaker 1: are in a recession when you have two consecutive quarters

162
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 1: of declining GDP. The first quarter was down I believe

163
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:10,200
Speaker 1: one point five percent, and the latest forecast that they

164
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 1: are now putting out there is that we are going

165
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:16,560
Speaker 1: to have a completely flat second quarter in terms of growth,

166
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 1: basically right at zero percent to avoid having to predict

167
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 1: the fact that we're going to be in an inflation

168
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 1: and lots I mean sorry, in a recession, and lots

169
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 1: of times you know this and a lot of our

170
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:32,200
Speaker 1: listeners do as well. You are in a recession before

171
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:35,080
Speaker 1: the data confirms that you're in a recession. And I

172
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 1: think that's where we are right now, because April May,

173
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 1: we've almost finished June. I would be surprised if we

174
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 1: had positive GDP growth. When those second quarter numbers come out,

175
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:49,719
Speaker 1: I think they are going to show that we are

176
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 1: in an inflation. I was reading the Wall Street Journal

177
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 1: yesterday forty four percent of economists now, Look, economists are

178
00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 1: typically awful at telling you what's going to happen or

179
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 1: our Democrats by the way, Yeah, but of those economists

180
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 1: now are saying that we're in a reflation, sorry, that

181
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,560
Speaker 1: we're in a recession, and or that we are going

182
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 1: to be in a recession. So I think we're there

183
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 1: almost half of economists degree I will be surprised in

184
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,600
Speaker 1: the second quarter if we aren't negative again, and that

185
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 1: would officially put us back into a recession. And yet

186
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 1: with all of this going on, I think Clay one

187
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 1: reason why the January six this goes back to one

188
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,560
Speaker 1: of the priorities and the principles in a sense on

189
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 1: display from the Democratic leads, the Democrat power apparatus. What

190
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 1: really matters to them. It should be if they were

191
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:43,720
Speaker 1: rational and if they were doing things intelligently to try

192
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:45,679
Speaker 1: to not just fix the economy but help themselves in

193
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:50,079
Speaker 1: the midterms. Everything to figure out the economy and just

194
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:54,000
Speaker 1: say sorry, sorry to the left wing radical green energy

195
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 1: base or whatever. We gotta just turn things around here, folks,

196
00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 1: or else we're going to get annihilated. That would be

197
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:03,319
Speaker 1: the reasonable thing for them to do. But instead they

198
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 1: retreat into these these ideological cocoons around issues like January six,

199
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:15,560
Speaker 1: or pushing even more the you know, trans agenda for

200
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:17,840
Speaker 1: either it's kids in school or now. Of course, I

201
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:20,719
Speaker 1: know you're gonna be talking about the new swimming regulations

202
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:23,440
Speaker 1: about transgender swimmers, which Clay will break down first. I mean,

203
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:27,439
Speaker 1: that's obviously something that's getting a lot of attention from

204
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 1: the activist community and people. People can't put gas in

205
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:34,439
Speaker 1: their cars, can't afford their groceries, can't find baby formula,

206
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 1: recession on the horizon, negative GDP growth last quarter, and

207
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 1: does it sound like I mean, this is really If

208
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,439
Speaker 1: the Democrats had a plan, you and I would know

209
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,640
Speaker 1: because we would be critiquing the plan. That's right, this

210
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,480
Speaker 1: is right, that's wrong, this makes sense, that's dumb. We

211
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 1: don't even have a plan to critique, Clay, and we

212
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 1: all should remember why, because the plan was built back

213
00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 1: better which is now clearly so insane because of inflation

214
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,720
Speaker 1: that they don't have. They actually don't have a plan.

215
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,199
Speaker 1: The plan for the first two years Buck was we're

216
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 1: going to demonstrate that we beat covid thanks to this

217
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 1: remarkable COVID vaccine, which we should play some audio for you,

218
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 1: because now six month to five year old kids are

219
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 1: technically eligible for this vaccine. In vaccine as in quotation

220
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:25,880
Speaker 1: marks but solve covid. And once they solve covid, they

221
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:29,960
Speaker 1: were arguing we were going to have a massive Biden boom.

222
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,560
Speaker 1: As everybody rolled back into work, as everything got back

223
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 1: to normal, where COVID's not going away. They didn't solve

224
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:41,000
Speaker 1: COVID in any respect. Instead, what they did was destroy

225
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:46,320
Speaker 1: the economy. And now, frankly, we're in an awful spot

226
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 1: where I don't know about you, Buck, but I'm just

227
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:53,520
Speaker 1: sitting around hoping that Joe Biden and the Democrats are

228
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,440
Speaker 1: not going to be able to pass any legislation of

229
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 1: any substantive impact for basically the next two and a

230
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 1: half year years until we have a twenty twenty four

231
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 1: presidential election. There is big news in a sense for

232
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:07,160
Speaker 1: some on the COVID front, which we'll get into, and

233
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 1: just a little bit here as well, the excitement over

234
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,720
Speaker 1: over vaccines for very small children among some libs. I

235
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 1: sat by the way, Clay. I know, people always it's

236
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 1: so unfair because if I take a photo of somebody

237
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,000
Speaker 1: then I'm shaming them, right. But whenever I say this

238
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 1: is what I saw, you get all the libs in

239
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,600
Speaker 1: your cot you did, you did making it up. I

240
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 1: sat next to a N ninety five double mask, not

241
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:34,199
Speaker 1: two ninety five, but an N ninety five with a

242
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 1: cloth mask on the plane ride down, and the beautiful

243
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:39,680
Speaker 1: miscarry next to me, who was not wearing a mask,

244
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 1: thank god. But the the person, the other person next

245
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 1: to me was wearing an N ninety five double mask. Situation. So, folks,

246
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 1: if you think, if you think people have normalized, they

247
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:51,440
Speaker 1: have not. We'll talk more about this though, coming up

248
00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:53,559
Speaker 1: in just a moment. You know, whenever time, whenever I

249
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,319
Speaker 1: use my phone these days, I just see this little

250
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,480
Speaker 1: thing up in the corner that says pure Talk. See

251
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:00,680
Speaker 1: I'd use pure Talk for a work phone before, but

252
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,079
Speaker 1: I made the full on switch. The phone that I'm

253
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 1: sending all of my tax and phone calls to family

254
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 1: member is working so much of my business, talking to Clay,

255
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,920
Speaker 1: talking to producer Ali and the team. That's a pure

256
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,480
Speaker 1: Talk phone now, friends, and the service is perfect. It's

257
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,800
Speaker 1: absolutely exactly the clarity that you think you'd get from

258
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 1: one of the big guys out there. But twenty dollars, folks,

259
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 1: that's right, twenty dollars is the plan that you can

260
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 1: get on with pure Talk. Pure Talk cell phone service

261
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 1: is every bit as good as the service that I

262
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:31,480
Speaker 1: had before. But now my cost is down actually over

263
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 1: seventy dollars a month at this point. The coverage is

264
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 1: so good and the savings are incredible. Plus this is

265
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 1: a company that shares your values and has great customer service,

266
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 1: all based here in the US. Twenty dollars a month

Speaker 1: did it. I'm a Pure Talk user day and day out.

273
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,720

Speaker 1: say the words Clay and Button. Welcome back in Clay, Travis,

277
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,360
Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all of you hanging out with us.

278
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 1: We are having a fantastic Monday here as we roll through.

279
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 1: Get you ready for what is officially for a lot

280
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:27,479
Speaker 1: of people the start of summer. I know, kids officially

281
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 1: getting out of school and one of the big topics

282
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 1: we've had. And by the way, encourage you as always

283
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 1: go subscribe to the podcast. Seventeen point five million of

284
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 1: you downloaded Clay and Buck podcast shows in the month

285
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 1: of May. We want June to continue to set that number.

286
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 1: It's crazy to think about we're going to be well

287
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:54,120
Speaker 1: over twenty million downloads as we roll into the midterm season.

288
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 1: But a lot of you out there, as you are

289
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 1: paying attention into the insanity that's been going on in

290
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 1: the larger United States universe, have recognized that one of

291
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 1: the things that you never would have thought would ever

292
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 1: be an argument would be that men shouldn't be able

293
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 1: to decide they want to compete against women. And that's

294
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 1: because we basically create massive differentiators for competition in sports,

295
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 1: because we recognize that there are all sorts of things

296
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 1: that make competition unfair. For instance, kids play against other

297
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,640
Speaker 1: kids their own age when they are growing up. Boxers

298
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 1: box against people who weigh around their own age because

299
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 1: a heavyweight boxer shouldn't be fighting a flyweight. People who

300
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:52,480
Speaker 1: are bigger and stronger in boxing and combat sports shouldn't

301
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:54,920
Speaker 1: be competing against each other. Wan This is not controversial,

302
00:16:56,280 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 1: but this past year, what has been inevitably forecast and

303
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 1: all the people told you it would never come to

304
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 1: reality began to come to pass in great magnitude, which

305
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:17,320
Speaker 1: is men, biological men decided they were identifying as women

306
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,879
Speaker 1: and they would start to compete against women. And this

307
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:24,680
Speaker 1: happened in a big way in college athletics with a

308
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:29,040
Speaker 1: transgender swimmer from Penn swam on the men's team for

309
00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 1: several years, decides that he is a woman, begins to

310
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 1: compete as a woman, and wins one of the women

311
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:41,520
Speaker 1: swimming championships at the NC double A event. That was

312
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,840
Speaker 1: a man who decided to now call himself Leah Thomas.

313
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 1: And so this is really the first real punchback I've

314
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 1: seen against this, and I want to read some of

315
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 1: the details here for you, Buck and get your reaction.

316
00:17:57,240 --> 00:18:02,679
Speaker 1: The World Swimming governing body has effectively banned I'm reading

317
00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 1: from the Associated Press, transgender athletes from competing in women events.

318
00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:14,120
Speaker 1: This happened yesterday. Members voted seventy one point five percent

319
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:17,359
Speaker 1: of them, by the way, in favor of a new

320
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:23,240
Speaker 1: policy that only permits swimmers who transitioned before age twelve

321
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:29,239
Speaker 1: to compete in women's events. And so this situation that

322
00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 1: just happened in the NC DOUBLEA in theory, under this

323
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 1: guideline would not be able to happen. Now, this is

324
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 1: a twenty four page policy analyzing all of this. Here's

325
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:47,119
Speaker 1: the challenge, Buck, and this is why while this is

326
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:51,720
Speaker 1: the right result. I'm actually troubled by this exemption that

327
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 1: they put in, which is, if you begin to transition

328
00:18:56,520 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 1: before the age of twelve, then you would still be

329
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:05,160
Speaker 1: eligible to compete as a woman. My concern is this

330
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 1: is going to be used as evidence of those in

331
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 1: the transgender community that children being given puberty blockers, transitioning,

332
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:19,520
Speaker 1: all of those things should be encouraged to happen. So

333
00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:22,800
Speaker 1: how do you assess this? On the one hand, yes,

334
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 1: biological men shouldn't be able to compete against women. The

335
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 1: downside here, though, is they've left open a loophole and exemption,

336
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:34,239
Speaker 1: as it were, for people who transition or begin to

337
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:37,720
Speaker 1: transition before puberty before the age of twelve. Well, one

338
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:40,080
Speaker 1: thing I think we'll be fastened to watch this play

339
00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:45,560
Speaker 1: out is who that transitions before the age of twelve

340
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:50,440
Speaker 1: is going to want to without the benefit of, yes,

341
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 1: all of those years of testosterone therapy, because really, what

342
00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,400
Speaker 1: are we talking about biological men also known as men

343
00:19:56,680 --> 00:20:01,640
Speaker 1: swimming against Okay, yes, so who is going to say, well,

344
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:06,720
Speaker 1: I essentially was chemically castrated at a very young you know,

345
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 1: at age ten or eleven whatever, which we both agree,

346
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:12,679
Speaker 1: by the way, as child abuse and should not be

347
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,119
Speaker 1: happening at all. And it's interesting to see all these

348
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,919
Speaker 1: people say, well, look at this practitioner or that practitioner. Um,

349
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:20,680
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure what we've seen in the last two

350
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 1: years is that blue check mds on Twitter who have

351
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:29,439
Speaker 1: lots and lots of Ukraine flags and vaccine needles and

352
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 1: mask emojis on their profiles are not to be trusted

353
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:37,440
Speaker 1: on matters of policy or judgment, and certainly not with

354
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,960
Speaker 1: your kids. Um. But so I wonder if this is

355
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:45,160
Speaker 1: even you know, effectively, you won't see the same kind

356
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,800
Speaker 1: of dominance. The pond may not even arise as an

357
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:52,639
Speaker 1: issue you under this, under this auspinity, because you know,

358
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,199
Speaker 1: it's it's about what's it's about what's fair. And so

359
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 1: if you don't have the biological advantage as like Leah Thomas,

360
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:05,160
Speaker 1: for example, has roughly ten years of testosterone therapy, natural

361
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:09,360
Speaker 1: testosterone therapy that has changed muscle, bone structure, heart size,

362
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:13,200
Speaker 1: all this is sig six foot hashtag six foot four

363
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 1: as well hashtag science. Okay, so that's reality. What we've

364
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 1: seen is the Democrat Party now wholesale embrace this standard

365
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 1: of we used to be a society where he would say,

366
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 1: are though, is that male genitalia or female genitalia? And

367
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,680
Speaker 1: you and I and everyone listening would say, pretty sure,

368
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,840
Speaker 1: we can tell the difference when you ask though, when

369
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,280
Speaker 1: you're when you pose that question as a Democrat, now

370
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:43,800
Speaker 1: the answer always must be it depends, it depends, not sure,

371
00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:46,080
Speaker 1: we could. This is what they say about babies, Clay.

372
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:49,480
Speaker 1: Remember they say, they say doctors get it wrong sometimes

373
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 1: when babies are born and they say it's a boy

374
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 1: or it's a girl. They are they are forcing people

375
00:21:55,640 --> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 1: to abandon their own most basic object, active reality, and

376
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 1: sensibility in favor of a political fad and fashion right now.

377
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:08,879
Speaker 1: And that is what is happening all of the country.

378
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:11,240
Speaker 1: It's happening in the school, it's happening in the boardrooms

379
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,359
Speaker 1: number where else. They are demanding this of people. And

380
00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:16,400
Speaker 1: it all started, you know, years ago. It was oh,

381
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:20,080
Speaker 1: let's just be let's be courteous to each other, let's

382
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:23,760
Speaker 1: be let's be civilized, everybody, with which conservatives completely agree, right.

383
00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 1: You treat human beings with dignity, decency, and kindness, irrespective

384
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,800
Speaker 1: of whatever the you know, the gender spectrum issues or

385
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:34,439
Speaker 1: whatever it may be. But somehow that transitions pardon the

386
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:37,480
Speaker 1: phrase in the last ten years too. Now, when you

387
00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:40,720
Speaker 1: see a six foot four guy dominating NC double a

388
00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 1: female swimming, you're you better clap and cheer, or else

389
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,920
Speaker 1: you're a bigot. So we've gone all the way now.

390
00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:49,800
Speaker 1: It's doctors don't know if a baby's male or female.

391
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 1: They're just making an educated guess. Does this have to

392
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 1: say that? That is what they say, by the way,

393
00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:58,919
Speaker 1: I know you know this, but for everyone listening, I'm

394
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:02,959
Speaker 1: not trying to like that, hperboly. This is what transactivists say.

395
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 1: They say doctors get it wrong, and they're basically guessing

396
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:07,919
Speaker 1: when a baby is born, and they say what the

397
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:11,840
Speaker 1: gender is. And I insist on my right as a

398
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:15,679
Speaker 1: person as essentient beings, as a rational human being, I

399
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 1: insist on my ability to say I can tell the

400
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,399
Speaker 1: difference between male and female genitalia. I can tell the

401
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 1: difference between a man and a woman. They can. They

402
00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 1: can argue with me as much as they want they can,

403
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 1: but you see, they want you to concede. This is

404
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,679
Speaker 1: you know, I'm always clad. I've been fascinated by the

405
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:36,200
Speaker 1: history of totalitarian regimes of the last hundred years, and

406
00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:39,840
Speaker 1: it's the more aggressive lies that they want you to

407
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,200
Speaker 1: because if something is a close call, if it's the

408
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,639
Speaker 1: judgment call, if there are things on both sides you

409
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:48,080
Speaker 1: could sort of see, that doesn't break your spirit, that

410
00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:51,760
Speaker 1: doesn't make you give in your rational faculties and say, fine,

411
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 1: I'll just do anything. The whole point is to get

412
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:57,680
Speaker 1: you to affirm that which you know to be untrue,

413
00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:01,080
Speaker 1: because they degrade you in the process, says they degrade

414
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:04,159
Speaker 1: your ability to make your own judgments on other things too,

415
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 1: And that's part of why this is so important to

416
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 1: the Democrats to the left in this moment in time.

417
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:12,960
Speaker 1: They seek to remake and break society, and one of

418
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,160
Speaker 1: the ways they do it is by telling you you

419
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 1: fundamentally cannot tell the difference between a man and a woman.

420
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:20,960
Speaker 1: You can't do it, and they're wrong, and that's a lie.

421
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:24,120
Speaker 1: And that's why on the swimming issue, finally, one organization

422
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:27,200
Speaker 1: is saying, look, you know, if you've been a man

423
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:31,919
Speaker 1: until until last year, you have a physical advantage because

424
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 1: of reality. I'm sorry if that hurts some people's feelings.

425
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:39,240
Speaker 1: And it's amazing to see the left wing freak out

426
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 1: about this and act like we don't see what reality is.

427
00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 1: But Clay, I mean saying, but what do you think

428
00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:46,879
Speaker 1: the crossover issage and people say it's so bigoted not

429
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:50,919
Speaker 1: to let Leah Thomas swim against women under under these rules.

430
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:52,879
Speaker 1: The crossover between that and people that are going to

431
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,120
Speaker 1: be so excited if they have children to get their

432
00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,320
Speaker 1: two year old, not one, not two. But I think

433
00:24:57,320 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 1: it's a three dose vaccine, three doses a huge overlap.

434
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 1: And what's also intriguing and fascinating to me buck about

435
00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 1: this entire story is there's almost no one, almost no

436
00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:13,119
Speaker 1: one out there who is involved in the world of

437
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 1: sports at all that will argue in favor of this.

438
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:20,840
Speaker 1: They either pretend the story doesn't exist, or they say

439
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 1: something like, well, you know, that's for the governing body

440
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:29,359
Speaker 1: to decide. No one will say, even the far left

441
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:31,760
Speaker 1: wing and you know, now how far left wing the

442
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:35,080
Speaker 1: sports universe is. There's nobody out there who's a strong

443
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:37,680
Speaker 1: advocate for this. And here's another one that I saw.

444
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,879
Speaker 1: Did you see Hillary Clinton came out and got asked

445
00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,120
Speaker 1: about it, and we think Hillary, even though she's saying

446
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:45,639
Speaker 1: she won't run, Hillary didn't and she's doing a lot

447
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,520
Speaker 1: of things that would suggest she might be interested in running.

448
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,680
Speaker 1: She did an interview at the Financial Times, and this

449
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 1: was the quote she was asked, Democrats seem to be

450
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:58,520
Speaker 1: going out of their way to lose elections by elevating

451
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:03,639
Speaker 1: activist causes, notably the transgender debate, which are relevant only

452
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:07,000
Speaker 1: to a small minority. What sense does it make to

453
00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:11,360
Speaker 1: depict JK. Rowling, of course, the Harry Potter author as

454
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:15,200
Speaker 1: a fascist. That's the question she got asked, and she said,

455
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 1: you know, of course, we're standing on the precipice of

456
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:23,119
Speaker 1: losing our democracy. And she basically said this, we don't

457
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:27,679
Speaker 1: need to be focusing on transgender related issues in the

458
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:31,800
Speaker 1: Democrat Party, even Hillary Clinton, which, by the way, the

459
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:35,720
Speaker 1: trans community is not happy about this answer. But Hillary

460
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,560
Speaker 1: is saying something that the vast majority of the American

461
00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 1: population agrees with, and most Democrats won't even go there, right,

462
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:47,200
Speaker 1: most Democrats Joe Biden certainly doesn't. I would love, I

463
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,960
Speaker 1: know Peter Doocy listens to the show. I would love

464
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:53,639
Speaker 1: whenever Joe Biden is in front of the media again

465
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,680
Speaker 1: for Peter Doocey to say, because this story is out there,

466
00:26:57,080 --> 00:27:01,040
Speaker 1: do you believe that biological men should be able to

467
00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 1: compete against women like what happened with the pin transgender swimmer?

468
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 1: Or do you think this governing body got it right?

469
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 1: Joe Biden one billion percent. He's seventy eight years old,

470
00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:15,679
Speaker 1: he's a sports fan. He's not in favor of guys

471
00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:18,840
Speaker 1: being able to identify as women and compete against them.

472
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,200
Speaker 1: What would he say in response to that question, though,

473
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:26,200
Speaker 1: how how handcuffed by the transgender community? He'll do. He'll

474
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:31,400
Speaker 1: do the good old Joe by the fireplace grandpa routine

475
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:34,440
Speaker 1: that you know, unfortunately idiots still fall for sometimes go

476
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:36,919
Speaker 1: it's not about you, it's not about that. It's about

477
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,560
Speaker 1: you know, it's about middle class and you know it's

478
00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 1: about you know, decency, common decency. He won't give an

479
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:47,560
Speaker 1: actual answer. He will retreat, as he always does, to

480
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:51,359
Speaker 1: platitudes for the idiotic, and that is that is this

481
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,800
Speaker 1: guy's entire political career. Effectively, he won't but he certainly

482
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:57,199
Speaker 1: won't say what everybody knows, which is that this is

483
00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 1: absurd and this is outrageous. You know, one thing that

484
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:02,159
Speaker 1: I thought about the play is as as this transgender

485
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 1: sports thing, you know that they they used to play

486
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:07,200
Speaker 1: the game of why are Republicans so focused on news?

487
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:09,240
Speaker 1: Why do you even care so much, which is always

488
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:11,119
Speaker 1: that's when they know their argument is bad and they

489
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:13,680
Speaker 1: don't want the American people paying attention. That's always a tell.

490
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 1: Why are you? Oh, there's like two distracts. This is

491
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:22,120
Speaker 1: a huge movement, folks, we all see it. They want

492
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:24,679
Speaker 1: to you know, they want to drag your kids, uh

493
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:28,359
Speaker 1: through this agenda in school as well too. But as

494
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:29,879
Speaker 1: all this is going on, I used to think, you know,

495
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 1: what needs to happen. The only way this comes apart

496
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 1: is if you were to have somebody who is like

497
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,840
Speaker 1: a let's say, a male basketball player of the you know,

498
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 1: of the physique of n James would be amazing, you know,

499
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:47,280
Speaker 1: six foot eight to seven feet tall, you know, can

500
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 1: you know forty inch vertical whatever? Right? I mean, just

501
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:53,280
Speaker 1: one of these guys who are are physical phenomenons, are

502
00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 1: phenomena and have them play in the WNBA and score

503
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:57,920
Speaker 1: one hundred points a game. I mean, this is kind

504
00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 1: of the joke that um James Chappelle made that got

505
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,000
Speaker 1: him into trouble the Lebron James and score you know,

506
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:06,720
Speaker 1: eight hundred points a game. But what you see now

507
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:09,640
Speaker 1: is that actually what the Democrat media would do if

508
00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,680
Speaker 1: that happened is stand and clap and say it is

509
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 1: stunning and brave that n LEBRONA James, in this example

510
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:21,480
Speaker 1: is scoring one hundred and thirty points a game. This

511
00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:23,360
Speaker 1: is what it means to be a good person in

512
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:27,080
Speaker 1: America today. They would actually do it. They would mouth

513
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 1: the preferred slogans like the little marionettes of the apparatus

514
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 1: that they are. I also wonder how long could a

515
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:38,160
Speaker 1: Lebron James play in the w NBA untily sixty five?

516
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 1: I mean, think about how big and strong and fast

517
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:43,760
Speaker 1: he would be even identifying as a woman. And by

518
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,320
Speaker 1: the way, some of you out there who are esteemed

519
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:53,920
Speaker 1: brilliant scholars of well, I think late nineties early nineties movies,

520
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 1: may remember this was the plot of a Damon Wayne's

521
00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:00,440
Speaker 1: film Juwanna Man. Do you remember Juanna Ma and Buck

522
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 1: at All? Yeah, it's an esteemed member of the cannon.

523
00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:06,479
Speaker 1: But the concept, I don't think the rotten tomatoes were

524
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 1: very high on them. Yes, but the concept is it

525
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:13,440
Speaker 1: was played for laughs. A NBA star gets banned from

526
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,640
Speaker 1: playing in the league and so decides to become a

527
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:21,200
Speaker 1: woman and disguise himself, and it was played for laughs.

528
00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 1: Then now I guess Joanna Man would be a heroic

529
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:27,560
Speaker 1: film about the struggles of a man inside of a

530
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:30,640

Speaker 1: on demand, The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, because man,

552
00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:43,840
Speaker 1: we got a lot to get to this hour, haven't

553
00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:47,480
Speaker 1: had a chance to talk about yet, and our friend

554
00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:50,080
Speaker 1: Tommy Laren joining us here in just a matter of

555
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,600
Speaker 1: minutes bottom of the hour around two thirty Eastern time,

556
00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:54,760
Speaker 1: so please stick around for that. Got a new show

557
00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:59,240
Speaker 1: launched on OutKick lays site which is gonna be fantastic.

558
00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:02,840
Speaker 1: So you can tell a lot about this Biden regime

559
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:05,520
Speaker 1: by what they focus on obviously and what they don't,

560
00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:08,520
Speaker 1: meaning that they're showing you more than they intend to.

561
00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:12,520
Speaker 1: I believe a lot of the time. Don't spend as much,

562
00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:14,800
Speaker 1: we shouldn't spend as much just on what they say,

563
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 1: but where are the resources going and what's being done

564
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:21,280
Speaker 1: at the federal level to tackle real problems. We know

565
00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 1: they were asleep at the wheel in the baby formula

566
00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 1: crisis and that's still going on at worse this month

567
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:28,600
Speaker 1: than last month in terms of how much baby formulas

568
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,480
Speaker 1: on the shelves. So a couple of photos of a

569
00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:34,240
Speaker 1: plane coming in from Germany with baby formula may have

570
00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:38,840
Speaker 1: been good optics, but it certainly didn't solve the problem.

571
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:42,120
Speaker 1: But beyond that, you can just look at the focus

572
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,520
Speaker 1: that they have put on January sixth and all these

573
00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:50,640
Speaker 1: other distractions, the way that they have been doubling down

574
00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:54,120
Speaker 1: even on the need to teach children about gender identity,

575
00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:55,920
Speaker 1: all these things, and the White House has been weighing

576
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 1: in on. But then there are genuine crises that seem

577
00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:04,720
Speaker 1: to get no attention from this White House, and the

578
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:08,520
Speaker 1: drug overdose pandemic, and I do think it is fair

579
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,200
Speaker 1: to call it that in this country is something that

580
00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:14,120
Speaker 1: deserves a whole lot more attention. And I think there

581
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:17,360
Speaker 1: are some reasons we should we should explore as to

582
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:21,680
Speaker 1: why the media seems so much less interested in this.

583
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 1: I mean, first of all, if you're if you're curious,

584
00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:26,120
Speaker 1: and I think all of us should be. Not only

585
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:30,360
Speaker 1: was last year was the highest year ever for overdose

586
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:33,959
Speaker 1: overdose deaths from drugs in the United States, over one

587
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 1: hundred thousand people. And unlike Clay and I were just

588
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 1: talking about the COVID numbers, where a lot of people

589
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 1: who are either hospitalized or died and listed as COVID

590
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:46,640
Speaker 1: as the cause. A lot of those instances were not

591
00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:49,680
Speaker 1: actually from COVID. When someone dies from a drug overdose,

592
00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:51,720
Speaker 1: they died from a drug overdose. So that's over one

593
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:56,080
Speaker 1: hundred thousand people who are also overwhelmingly in the age

594
00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 1: range of you know, eighteen to thirty five, maybe eighteen

595
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:02,720
Speaker 1: to four five, And so you're losing a lot of

596
00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:05,880
Speaker 1: people who are, you know, early in their lives. And

597
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:10,040
Speaker 1: there's a whole series of problems that have all come

598
00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:13,239
Speaker 1: together here a wide open border for example. So last

599
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:17,720
Speaker 1: year was the worst ever for fentyyl and general drug

600
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:20,680
Speaker 1: overdoses in this country. Over one hundred thousand people died

601
00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:23,759
Speaker 1: the first five months of twenty twenty two. According to

602
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:28,640
Speaker 1: the Department of Justice, Clay more fentyyl seized, which people

603
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:30,600
Speaker 1: might say, oh, that means we're doing better law enforcement.

604
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:34,480
Speaker 1: That actually, to anyone who understands the drug trade, means

605
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 1: there's more fentinyl coming, meaning more of it's getting into

606
00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:40,360
Speaker 1: the country too. You're not actually stopping the flow, you

607
00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 1: might be catching more of a larger flow. More fentyl

608
00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:45,800
Speaker 1: sees the first five months of twenty twenty two compared

609
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:49,160
Speaker 1: to I'm sorry, the first five months of twenty twenty

610
00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:52,760
Speaker 1: two surpassed all of last year. So we are already

611
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:57,440
Speaker 1: in terms of fentinyl seizures beyond where we were. So

612
00:34:57,480 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 1: you can think that that's because of really aggressive law enforcement,

613
00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:01,719
Speaker 1: or you can think that that's because the drugs are

614
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:03,319
Speaker 1: flowing in greater numbers. And you look at a city

615
00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:06,120
Speaker 1: like Oregon, where we talked about this briefly last week,

616
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:09,840
Speaker 1: the Democrats city of Oregon, run by Democrats. Democrat voters

617
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:16,480
Speaker 1: made drug made drugs effectively legal fentonel, cocaine, heroin for

618
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:19,799
Speaker 1: personal possession, wouldn't arrest people for using this stuff out

619
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:22,840
Speaker 1: in public. People were shooting up in downtown Portland with

620
00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 1: heroin needles, clean needle programs, decriminalization, all this, all that

621
00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:30,920
Speaker 1: has led to is more people dying, more people using,

622
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:35,000
Speaker 1: and more destruction of their downtown. What do you think

623
00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:40,480
Speaker 1: it takes for Democrats to realize that permissiveness is not kindness.

624
00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:43,360
Speaker 1: It's not the same thing that allowing people to destroy

625
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:46,960
Speaker 1: themselves is not the same thing as being as being

626
00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:51,520
Speaker 1: considerate and sympathetic to your fellow human being. Yeah, and

627
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:55,920
Speaker 1: it's just part and parcel of the rampant lawlessness that

628
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:59,840
Speaker 1: we are seeing. And I like to discuss years of

629
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:04,799
Speaker 1: life lost when we are setting these records. Over one

630
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:10,840
Speaker 1: hundred thousand people dying of drug overdoses, fentonol overwhelmingly the

631
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:13,719
Speaker 1: cause of most of those. You're talking about people in

632
00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 1: their twenties, in their thirties and their forties, with their

633
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:23,480
Speaker 1: entire lives left to be lived, that are dying. And

634
00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:28,600
Speaker 1: the lawlessness as our southern border is also contributing to

635
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:31,799
Speaker 1: the lawlessness that exists all over the country. Block I'm

636
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:34,439
Speaker 1: looking right now at a Fox News headline. We've talked

637
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:38,839
Speaker 1: a lot about homicide increases since twenty twenty. You went

638
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:42,800
Speaker 1: up thirty percent in twenty twenty, up again in twenty

639
00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:45,520
Speaker 1: twenty one. We got a lot of cities out there

640
00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:51,279
Speaker 1: where people are listening to us LA Washington, DC, Baltimore, Milwaukee,

641
00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:56,760
Speaker 1: and Atlanta halfway through the year are all setting pace

642
00:36:57,280 --> 00:37:01,960
Speaker 1: for record homicide increase. Is again, that's a wide scope

643
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:04,319
Speaker 1: of the country, right east coast, all the way to

644
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:08,360
Speaker 1: the west coast, the south, the Midwest. I'm headed to

645
00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:11,120
Speaker 1: Atlanta here for a braves game as soon as this

646
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:14,239
Speaker 1: thing is over. People in Atlanta are terrified with what

647
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:17,640
Speaker 1: is going on in their crime rate. We know, Buck,

648
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:19,759
Speaker 1: We've talked a lot about all of the issues in

649
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:24,719
Speaker 1: LA including two cops who got murdered, and I think

650
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:28,400
Speaker 1: we have the audio associated with that from the mom

651
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:32,560
Speaker 1: who is furious over the situations that have been allowed

652
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:36,839
Speaker 1: to exist in these democrat cities and states and what

653
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:40,799
Speaker 1: is going on in terms of the danger to everybody

654
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:45,759
Speaker 1: as a result. And I mean, it's overwhelmingly difficult to

655
00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:50,680
Speaker 1: listen to what these people are saying in response to

656
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:53,399
Speaker 1: all of that, all that violence. I mean, it just

657
00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:58,960
Speaker 1: is brutal on an absolutely epic level. This all relates

658
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:04,680
Speaker 1: back to add ideas ideas that were pushed very heavily

659
00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:07,399
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty, I mean ending and this I think

660
00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:10,160
Speaker 1: there's also just a broader tie in here, Clay, where

661
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:13,640
Speaker 1: a lot of the ideas of the left that end

662
00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:17,759
Speaker 1: up having catastrophic consequences for really everybody in society, just

663
00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:22,160
Speaker 1: making everything worse, whether it's a defund the police, ending

664
00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:27,960
Speaker 1: mass incarceration, legalization of the most hardcore drugs, A lot

665
00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:33,400
Speaker 1: of it starts with an appeal to conservatives, decency sympathy,

666
00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:36,759
Speaker 1: and I would say innate kindness. Come on, guys, we

667
00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:39,359
Speaker 1: don't want to lock people up forever for drugs, and

668
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:41,200
Speaker 1: that then all of a sudden turns into yeah, so

669
00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:43,720
Speaker 1: what if we found a gangbanger has been arrested fifteen

670
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:46,640
Speaker 1: times with drugs in a legal firearm, and maybe he's

671
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:49,360
Speaker 1: been threatening to kill a rival or kill an ex girlfriend.

672
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:52,359
Speaker 1: But we want to end mass incarceration, so you know,

673
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:55,399
Speaker 1: we're gonna let him go and we see what ends

674
00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:57,719
Speaker 1: up happening. And this is tied in of course, to

675
00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:01,040
Speaker 1: the shooting list, to a brave officers, officers who did

676
00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:04,600
Speaker 1: answer the call, who did go into the gunfire and

677
00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:08,520
Speaker 1: exchange fire with that that gang member who had his

678
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:11,319
Speaker 1: gang literally tattooed on his face, right, I mean, just

679
00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:13,600
Speaker 1: so ever understands it's not really a tough call for

680
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:16,080
Speaker 1: Gasco and the district attorneys. This. You know, this isn't

681
00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:19,360
Speaker 1: an honor student who you know, got caught up with

682
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:22,160
Speaker 1: the wrong crowd one afternoon and did some graffiti somewhere.

683
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:25,880
Speaker 1: This was a hardcore gang member who killed two police officers.

684
00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:29,279
Speaker 1: But I just I bring it up because the Democrat

685
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:31,520
Speaker 1: appeal and you hear, there's the media in the beginning,

686
00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:35,120
Speaker 1: come on. Don't you guys want to be nice? Don't

687
00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:37,720
Speaker 1: you want to do the nice thing? And it's actually

688
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:41,600
Speaker 1: not nice in Portland to allow people to do heroin

689
00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:43,920
Speaker 1: out in the open and to overdose and to you know,

690
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,520
Speaker 1: choke on their own vomit and die. That's actually not

691
00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:50,000
Speaker 1: a kindness for those people. We should be looking at

692
00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:53,319
Speaker 1: what actually the results of policies are, and we should

693
00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:56,040
Speaker 1: be trying to promote the yeah, the general welfare, but

694
00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:58,600
Speaker 1: also the individual welfare. You're you're not doing people any

695
00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:02,279
Speaker 1: favors by letting them destroy themselves out in public and

696
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:06,040
Speaker 1: make their communities a nightmare for everybody else. And then

697
00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:08,960
Speaker 1: then you even get into clay. These drugs are different

698
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:10,400
Speaker 1: than other drugs in the past. I mean, that's I

699
00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:12,520
Speaker 1: think another part of it that people need to understand.

700
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:18,000
Speaker 1: The cartels make fentanyl pills to look like pharmaceutical grade percoset,

701
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:20,440
Speaker 1: to look to look like things that are made by

702
00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:22,839
Speaker 1: pharmer companies that you've actually heard of that doctors would

703
00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:25,840
Speaker 1: prescribe people. And so a kid, you know it's sixteen

704
00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:28,680
Speaker 1: year old, that eighteen year old will take one dead. Yeah,

705
00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:32,399
Speaker 1: that's happening all over the country. And that's happening day

706
00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:35,719
Speaker 1: and day out. The numbers are vast in every community

707
00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:39,239
Speaker 1: large and small. How much times the Biden administration put

708
00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:42,800
Speaker 1: into tackling that problem versus how much time have the

709
00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:45,480
Speaker 1: Biden the Democrats put into January sixth, for example. But

710
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:50,040
Speaker 1: our democracies and peril, They shout, yeah, how much attention

711
00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:53,680
Speaker 1: have we even seen at the border? Period? The only

712
00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 1: time we've seen a story at the border that the

713
00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:59,520
Speaker 1: Biden administration has commented on or the media has been

714
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:03,480
Speaker 1: willing who pressed the Biden administration on was the ridiculous

715
00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:06,440
Speaker 1: made up story about the border patrol agents who were

716
00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:10,520
Speaker 1: whipping Haitian immigrants, even though that clearly is not true,

717
00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:12,719
Speaker 1: and we talked about it last week that there's some

718
00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:14,920
Speaker 1: sort of consequences that are trying to be brought to

719
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:18,520
Speaker 1: bear on that issue, But it speaks to the media's

720
00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:24,879
Speaker 1: failure to address issues that directly impact massive amounts of

721
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:27,440
Speaker 1: the American public on a day to day basis. Again,

722
00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:30,279
Speaker 1: if you're in your twenties, thirties, and forties, COVID was

723
00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 1: virtually zero risk to you, But the fentanyl, massive amounts

724
00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:36,960
Speaker 1: of drugs coming across a cross your borders and the

725
00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:40,240
Speaker 1: number of people who couldn't go to their AA meetings,

726
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:43,000
Speaker 1: or couldn't go to church, or couldn't have their normal

727
00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:47,200
Speaker 1: social encounters that would have helped to keep maybe so

728
00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:51,960
Speaker 1: much of this depression and anxiety and drug use down.

729
00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:55,880
Speaker 1: It all got taken away from them. And we're still

730
00:41:55,920 --> 00:42:00,120
Speaker 1: not even discussing all of the long term consequences of

731
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:05,160
Speaker 1: the worst American public policy decision in most of our lifetimes,

732
00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:07,920
Speaker 1: which was to shut down and allow all of these

733
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,680
Speaker 1: drugs to run rampant in our streets. And you see

734
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:13,719
Speaker 1: the Democrats now in this in the city of Portland,

735
00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:18,560
Speaker 1: including a candidate for mayor, are are recognizing what has

736
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:21,520
Speaker 1: been done as a result of these These were decisions

737
00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:23,320
Speaker 1: that were made. This isn't just a thing that happened.

738
00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:25,600
Speaker 1: And it's true in many other cities when you look

739
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:27,480
Speaker 1: at the crime and the crime in San Francisco, they

740
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 1: have similar issues with the open air drug use uh clay.

741
00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:34,320
Speaker 1: They're they're now talking about putting all of the homeless

742
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:40,600
Speaker 1: encampments into these uh these tiny homes. Essentially these almost

743
00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:44,279
Speaker 1: like a like a shack, a prefabricated shack. And now

744
00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:46,160
Speaker 1: that so they're going to just create these massive open

745
00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:50,400
Speaker 1: air homeless encampments with little with little houses, um, and

746
00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:52,080
Speaker 1: then they're gonna still be dealing with a lot of

747
00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:54,439
Speaker 1: the same problems though. I mean, this is they they

748
00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:59,520
Speaker 1: have created and an approval of people doing this. They've said, okay,

749
00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:02,759
Speaker 1: you want to be doing fentetel. Remember, anyone who's using

750
00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:05,279
Speaker 1: fentonel in these places is going to be often selling it.

751
00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:07,200
Speaker 1: That's how they that's how they get the money to

752
00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:09,319
Speaker 1: buy the fentetel themselves. They're going to be a part

753
00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:12,120
Speaker 1: of that chain of transmission. And they don't arrest them,

754
00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:14,200
Speaker 1: and they don't say enough is enough. And communities are

755
00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:16,960
Speaker 1: being destroyed by this. You know, these are ideas that

756
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:19,440
Speaker 1: the left has pushed that have been wrong yet again,

757
00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:21,680
Speaker 1: and I just think there needs to be accountability for it.

758
00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:23,719
Speaker 1: I think that Joe Biden, I mean, you brought up

759
00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:27,200
Speaker 1: the border clay. The border is wide open is a problem,

760
00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:29,839
Speaker 1: not just because of illegal immigration. It means that it's

761
00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:32,480
Speaker 1: easier than ever to get fenteel across the border, which

762
00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:35,880
Speaker 1: is which has killed people that members of this audience

763
00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:40,719
Speaker 1: are related to know very well, taught in school all

764
00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:43,640
Speaker 1: over the country. Yeah, I mean, and there's no sense

765
00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:45,839
Speaker 1: of urgency from this White House whatsoever to deal with

766
00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:50,880
Speaker 1: this such a great sense of urgency though on climate

767
00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:54,000
Speaker 1: for example, one hundred thousand people are you're dying for

768
00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:56,640
Speaker 1: fentantyl overdoses. Look At how much more time they spend

769
00:43:56,640 --> 00:44:00,360
Speaker 1: talking about the Green New Deal than about the drug

770
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:02,880
Speaker 1: epidemic we have in the country. So, you know, I

771
00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:04,680
Speaker 1: think it just it shows you what they care about

772
00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:09,680
Speaker 1: and the generally, well, actually it's all I was gonna say.

773
00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:12,280
Speaker 1: You can't even generalize about where these overdoses are happening.

774
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:17,680
Speaker 1: It's all over the country everywhere simultaneously. And the failure

775
00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:20,680
Speaker 1: of the media to hold the Biden account the Biden

776
00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:23,439
Speaker 1: administration accountable for this in any way or even write

777
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:25,799
Speaker 1: about it or even care about it, especially because of

778
00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:31,400
Speaker 1: its association with the border, is biased incompetence that's directly

779
00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:34,879
Speaker 1: costing tens of thousands of lives. Come back to more

Speaker 1: sh E P H E r d dot com. But

810
00:45:56,800 --> 00:46:00,680
Speaker 1: we do have is something that's very disturbing in this

811
00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:05,719
Speaker 1: country is what I referred to as the normalization of untruths.

812
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:11,239
Speaker 1: There's so much distortion of reality and conspiracy theories that

813
00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:16,080
Speaker 1: are spread widely by social media. When you get total

814
00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:18,640
Speaker 1: enough of Fauci, welcome back to Welcome back to Clay

815
00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:22,120
Speaker 1: and Buck distortions, untruth Fauci. That was just him a

816
00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:25,080
Speaker 1: couple of days ago, very very unhappy about the distortions

817
00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:28,600
Speaker 1: and untruths that are out there about health issues. Here's

818
00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:32,040
Speaker 1: Fauci May seventeen, twenty twenty one, almost exactly a year ago.

819
00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:35,280
Speaker 1: Play it. When people are vaccinated, they can feel safe

820
00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:37,960
Speaker 1: that they are not going to get infected. Oh wait,

821
00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:41,760
Speaker 1: hold on a second, when they're vaccinated, they are safe

822
00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:46,800
Speaker 1: that they are not going to get infected. That was

823
00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:54,960
Speaker 1: a year ago. That is entirely, catastrophically, categorically untrue. Clay

824
00:46:55,000 --> 00:46:59,040
Speaker 1: has he ever said I'm sorry, I'm in little evil moron. No,

825
00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:02,319
Speaker 1: he has not. No. And worse than that, if you

826
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:06,520
Speaker 1: pointed to the data from Israel and England who wore

827
00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:11,240
Speaker 1: ahead of us in vaccine distributions, and you could see

828
00:47:11,280 --> 00:47:15,279
Speaker 1: all of these people testing positive, you were banned for

829
00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:20,719
Speaker 1: even discussing that. As recent as Joly of last year,

830
00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:24,520
Speaker 1: President Biden was saying, if you get the COVID shot,

831
00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:29,120
Speaker 1: you won't get or spread COVID, and you also will

832
00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:36,120
Speaker 1: not die of COVID. Now again, all of that one untrue.

833
00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:38,800
Speaker 1: You know the feeling you wake up in the morning, aakee,

834
00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:41,080
Speaker 1: slow to move. Sometimes you wonder if that feeling is

835
00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:44,480
Speaker 1: ever gonna go away. It's often caused by inflammation. But

836
00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:47,280
Speaker 1: there is a way to feel better. Relief Factor created

837
00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:50,240
Speaker 1: by doctors and perfective over fifteen years of scientific research.

838
00:47:50,320 --> 00:47:54,080
