Hey, everybody, welcome to the 4 00:00:21,377 --> 00:00:24,777 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show. Phenomenal lineup of stories to talk to 5 00:00:24,777 --> 00:00:28,177 Speaker 1: you about today. First up, we have New York City 6 00:00:28,897 --> 00:00:34,657 Speaker 1: looking to possibly remove monuments in public spaces, public squares 7 00:00:35,217 --> 00:00:40,497 Speaker 1: of Washington, Jefferson, Columbus, even Peter Stuyvesant. That's right, New 8 00:00:40,537 --> 00:00:42,937 Speaker 1: York City taking the time to do this instead of 9 00:00:42,937 --> 00:00:46,457 Speaker 1: trying to fix the trajectory it's on. We also have 10 00:00:46,697 --> 00:00:52,297 Speaker 1: the Mayor of Chicago looking like he wants to build 11 00:00:53,417 --> 00:00:57,017 Speaker 1: or set up grocery stores that are owned by the 12 00:00:57,057 --> 00:01:01,297 Speaker 1: City of Chicago, which to me, this just strikes me 13 00:01:01,337 --> 00:01:05,017 Speaker 1: as completely nuts. But when you understand what's going on 14 00:01:05,737 --> 00:01:09,177 Speaker 1: with these Democrats, when you understand the way they approach everything, 15 00:01:09,377 --> 00:01:12,977 Speaker 1: more government control is what they're looking for. And then 16 00:01:13,017 --> 00:01:19,137 Speaker 1: the DOJ is investigating Elon musk Oh. Of course, anybody 17 00:01:19,217 --> 00:01:25,457 Speaker 1: who challenges the dominant autocratic paradigm of the left is 18 00:01:25,497 --> 00:01:28,377 Speaker 1: going to be subject to these kinds of tactics of 19 00:01:28,417 --> 00:01:31,297 Speaker 1: intimidation and harassment. So we will discuss all that, but First, 20 00:01:31,337 --> 00:01:34,097 Speaker 1: let's start with New York City, because New York City 21 00:01:34,297 --> 00:01:42,177 Speaker 1: is New York City is canceled or canceling its most 22 00:01:42,257 --> 00:01:46,457 Speaker 1: famous statues, possibly the city count The committee what is 23 00:01:46,457 --> 00:01:49,137 Speaker 1: it called, Committee on Cultural Affairs Committee? There you go. 24 00:01:49,617 --> 00:01:52,977 Speaker 1: The good little commissars of the Cultural Affairs Committee met 25 00:01:52,977 --> 00:01:57,417 Speaker 1: today to hear public comment about removing statues that include 26 00:01:57,497 --> 00:02:01,577 Speaker 1: statues like as I mentioned, Jefferson and Washington. We already 27 00:02:01,577 --> 00:02:05,217 Speaker 1: know the left definitely wants to tear down the founding fathers, 28 00:02:06,177 --> 00:02:09,537 Speaker 1: but in this one they also have Peter Stuyvesant. For 29 00:02:09,577 --> 00:02:13,937 Speaker 1: those who don't remember, Peter Stuyvesant is was the Dutch 30 00:02:14,097 --> 00:02:18,497 Speaker 1: governor of Manhattan and before it became New York, right, 31 00:02:18,537 --> 00:02:20,337 Speaker 1: it was New Amsterdam. He was the Dutch governor of 32 00:02:20,337 --> 00:02:25,897 Speaker 1: Manhattan and he was involved in slaves. He owned slaves, 33 00:02:26,457 --> 00:02:29,297 Speaker 1: so he has to be canceled. Columbus, as we know, 34 00:02:29,377 --> 00:02:31,897 Speaker 1: Christopher Columbus. He oh. Just as a side note, I 35 00:02:31,937 --> 00:02:33,657 Speaker 1: applied to stuyves In high school. For those of you 36 00:02:33,657 --> 00:02:36,177 Speaker 1: who know New York City. Got in. Just take a test. 37 00:02:36,177 --> 00:02:38,257 Speaker 1: You have to get a certain score. But I didn't go. 38 00:02:38,417 --> 00:02:40,937 Speaker 1: But it's considered the most elite public school in all 39 00:02:40,977 --> 00:02:44,497 Speaker 1: of New York City. I went to Regis High School instead, 40 00:02:44,537 --> 00:02:46,737 Speaker 1: you know, got a full ride there, so that was nice. 41 00:02:47,457 --> 00:02:51,017 Speaker 1: So they also want to put Christopher Columbus in the 42 00:02:51,057 --> 00:02:53,257 Speaker 1: mix here, somebody that they might be willing to get 43 00:02:53,337 --> 00:02:57,217 Speaker 1: rid of. Christopher Columbus. My friends, they hate Columbus. Now, 44 00:02:57,217 --> 00:03:03,697 Speaker 1: Columbus mistreated some of the natives that he encountered. But 45 00:03:04,017 --> 00:03:06,497 Speaker 1: we also have to look at the realities of the 46 00:03:06,497 --> 00:03:12,697 Speaker 1: Age of Exploration in the late fifteenth century. What were people? 47 00:03:12,737 --> 00:03:16,177 Speaker 1: How did people treat each other? The answer is might 48 00:03:16,257 --> 00:03:18,897 Speaker 1: made right effectively. There was very little sense that you 49 00:03:18,897 --> 00:03:24,137 Speaker 1: would treat people outside your group, your religion, your tribe, 50 00:03:24,217 --> 00:03:30,777 Speaker 1: your nation, whatever, as as equals. That just wasn't the 51 00:03:30,777 --> 00:03:33,177 Speaker 1: reality of the world. Then you look at societies all 52 00:03:33,177 --> 00:03:35,457 Speaker 1: over the world. It also goes to how slavery existed 53 00:03:35,537 --> 00:03:40,017 Speaker 1: in societies all over the world. In the fifteen hundreds, 54 00:03:40,417 --> 00:03:44,137 Speaker 1: the Ottoman Empire had a massive slave empire. The different 55 00:03:44,137 --> 00:03:50,377 Speaker 1: states within Africa, or the different tribal realities inside of 56 00:03:50,417 --> 00:03:55,377 Speaker 1: Africa had a massive slave trade. They were taking slaves. 57 00:03:55,657 --> 00:04:01,537 Speaker 1: There was slavery practiced by different tribes in North America 58 00:04:01,617 --> 00:04:07,417 Speaker 1: before anyone got here from the European side. So that's 59 00:04:07,457 --> 00:04:10,457 Speaker 1: the reality, and those who don't know it's actually fat sitting. 60 00:04:10,497 --> 00:04:14,297 Speaker 1: The Ottoman slave trade. They would go as far and 61 00:04:14,337 --> 00:04:18,497 Speaker 1: this is deep into the eighteenth century, so in the 62 00:04:18,497 --> 00:04:22,897 Speaker 1: seventeen hundreds, they would go as far north to take 63 00:04:22,977 --> 00:04:27,737 Speaker 1: Christian slaves. These are Muslim corsairs, taking Christians from their 64 00:04:28,217 --> 00:04:31,377 Speaker 1: city towns and cities. They went to the coast of Ireland. 65 00:04:31,617 --> 00:04:33,417 Speaker 1: They even made it to Iceland, I believe at one point. 66 00:04:34,097 --> 00:04:38,017 Speaker 1: And this was over centuries. This went ongoing. The point 67 00:04:38,057 --> 00:04:41,977 Speaker 1: being slavery was the reality of the world hundreds of 68 00:04:42,017 --> 00:04:44,977 Speaker 1: years ago. It doesn't mean it was okay. Obviously it 69 00:04:45,097 --> 00:04:48,217 Speaker 1: is a wrong, it is evil, it is immoral. But 70 00:04:48,737 --> 00:04:51,857 Speaker 1: if we are going to judge everybody in that period 71 00:04:51,897 --> 00:04:56,297 Speaker 1: of time by the standards of today, we're who's going 72 00:04:56,337 --> 00:04:59,457 Speaker 1: to be left Effectively, That's what you have to ask yourself. 73 00:05:01,297 --> 00:05:03,537 Speaker 1: Who do they want to replace these individuals with? Who 74 00:05:03,537 --> 00:05:05,657 Speaker 1: do they want to replace the founding fathers with Christopher 75 00:05:05,697 --> 00:05:10,497 Speaker 1: Columbus and others. I would assume the New York City 76 00:05:10,537 --> 00:05:13,697 Speaker 1: Council would try to replace them with some kind of 77 00:05:13,697 --> 00:05:18,377 Speaker 1: like Marxist community organizers or something along those lines. That's 78 00:05:18,417 --> 00:05:21,057 Speaker 1: what I think they would like to do you know 79 00:05:21,137 --> 00:05:28,257 Speaker 1: someone who was involved in helping illegal immigrants and pushing 80 00:05:28,377 --> 00:05:32,737 Speaker 1: for you know, the transagenda in schools in the last 81 00:05:32,777 --> 00:05:34,617 Speaker 1: ten years or something, that those are the only people 82 00:05:34,617 --> 00:05:38,497 Speaker 1: who are truly acceptable to the left. Because even people 83 00:05:38,537 --> 00:05:42,577 Speaker 1: that the left admires and elevates throughout the twentieth century, 84 00:05:42,577 --> 00:05:45,697 Speaker 1: what was their position on gay marriage? Well, why is 85 00:05:45,737 --> 00:05:48,257 Speaker 1: that bigotry excused now? Right? I mean, you can see 86 00:05:48,257 --> 00:05:52,337 Speaker 1: how it's just impossible. It's impossible to make the left 87 00:05:52,377 --> 00:05:54,177 Speaker 1: happy on any of this. And the point is, it's 88 00:05:54,217 --> 00:05:58,177 Speaker 1: not about what's right, what's decent, what's best for society, 89 00:05:58,297 --> 00:06:02,057 Speaker 1: the country. They want to tear down, and the desire 90 00:06:02,337 --> 00:06:05,777 Speaker 1: is to replace that history with something else. Yes, it's 91 00:06:05,817 --> 00:06:08,897 Speaker 1: just the destruction of what is. But then they also 92 00:06:08,977 --> 00:06:13,057 Speaker 1: have designs on created something else. And it's not something 93 00:06:13,057 --> 00:06:17,337 Speaker 1: that they're very open about. But I do think it's 94 00:06:17,377 --> 00:06:22,697 Speaker 1: meant to change our shared historical vision of America so 95 00:06:22,737 --> 00:06:25,457 Speaker 1: that they can shape the future of America in a Marxist, 96 00:06:25,497 --> 00:06:29,257 Speaker 1: authoritarian mold. I truly believe that. I think it's quite clear, 97 00:06:30,937 --> 00:06:35,417 Speaker 1: my friends. We all remember what happened twenty two years ago, 98 00:06:35,817 --> 00:06:39,297 Speaker 1: the tragic events of nine to eleven. The toll of 99 00:06:39,377 --> 00:06:42,857 Speaker 1: lives loss was massive. Thousands of people lost, family members 100 00:06:42,937 --> 00:06:45,857 Speaker 1: suffered injuries, not to mention all the illnesses that continued 101 00:06:46,097 --> 00:06:49,217 Speaker 1: to take lives all these years later. There's an entire generation, 102 00:06:49,297 --> 00:06:52,697 Speaker 1: maybe two generations, that knows little to nothing about our 103 00:06:52,777 --> 00:06:55,617 Speaker 1: nation's darkest day. The Tunnel the Towers nine to eleven 104 00:06:55,657 --> 00:06:58,657 Speaker 1: Institute was launched to right this wrong by helping to 105 00:06:58,777 --> 00:07:01,937 Speaker 1: educate kids in kindergarten through twelfth grade about nine to eleven. 106 00:07:02,417 --> 00:07:05,497 Speaker 1: Their nonfiction first person accounts are told through videos and 107 00:07:05,537 --> 00:07:09,137 Speaker 1: a captivating book series. These accounts are moving and unparalleled. 108 00:07:09,217 --> 00:07:12,537 Speaker 1: Kids won't forget these true stories. The institute offers full 109 00:07:12,577 --> 00:07:16,057 Speaker 1: curriculum units with scripted social studies, lessons, activities, and background 110 00:07:16,057 --> 00:07:18,777 Speaker 1: for teachers. Included in that as a speaker's bureau for 111 00:07:18,777 --> 00:07:21,737 Speaker 1: classrooms with access to nine to eleven first responders, survivors 112 00:07:21,737 --> 00:07:25,057 Speaker 1: and loved ones to never forget. We must educate future generations. 113 00:07:25,097 --> 00:07:28,257 Speaker 1: Help our nation honor its vow. Donate eleven dollars a 114 00:07:28,297 --> 00:07:30,537 Speaker 1: month at T two T dot org. That's t the 115 00:07:30,617 --> 00:07:33,577 Speaker 1: number two T dot org. All right, So here we 116 00:07:33,617 --> 00:07:37,417 Speaker 1: get Chicago Democrat Mayor Brandon Johnson wants to create city 117 00:07:37,537 --> 00:07:42,737 Speaker 1: run grocery stores to promote equitable access to food after 118 00:07:42,817 --> 00:07:47,697 Speaker 1: Walmart and Whole Foods close stores. So he says there's 119 00:07:47,737 --> 00:07:51,497 Speaker 1: a partnership with the Economic Security Project to open municipally 120 00:07:51,537 --> 00:07:55,937 Speaker 1: owned state grocery stores. Basically remembers talking about Marxism before 121 00:07:55,937 --> 00:08:00,697 Speaker 1: and all this state grocery stores. That's effectively what's going 122 00:08:00,737 --> 00:08:04,137 Speaker 1: on here. And he says it's because we need equitable 123 00:08:04,177 --> 00:08:08,457 Speaker 1: access to food because of food deserts, and he talks 124 00:08:08,497 --> 00:08:14,817 Speaker 1: about underserved communities. Well, let's look at what happened here. 125 00:08:17,017 --> 00:08:19,577 Speaker 1: One person on social media rotors this is the daily 126 00:08:19,577 --> 00:08:21,937 Speaker 1: mail writing this. One person on social media wrote, let's 127 00:08:21,937 --> 00:08:25,417 Speaker 1: see major successful retailers and grocery store operators have pulled 128 00:08:25,417 --> 00:08:28,217 Speaker 1: out of certain zip codes due to chronic crime. But 129 00:08:28,257 --> 00:08:30,417 Speaker 1: the city of Chicago is going to install and manage 130 00:08:30,457 --> 00:08:34,537 Speaker 1: taxpayer subsidized stores. What could possibly go wrong? Another added 131 00:08:34,577 --> 00:08:36,817 Speaker 1: people need to learn to not steal, and the grocery 132 00:08:36,817 --> 00:08:39,817 Speaker 1: stores won't have to close. A third said residents must 133 00:08:39,857 --> 00:08:43,857 Speaker 1: respect community businesses if they want their services. So this 134 00:08:43,937 --> 00:08:46,297 Speaker 1: is a city has a budget shortfall of Chicago of 135 00:08:46,337 --> 00:08:49,337 Speaker 1: five hundred and thirty eight million dollars and it's going 136 00:08:49,377 --> 00:08:51,017 Speaker 1: to be operating grocery stores. I mean, I'm just going 137 00:08:51,057 --> 00:08:52,497 Speaker 1: to tell you right now, these are these If they 138 00:08:52,537 --> 00:08:56,817 Speaker 1: do this, they will be the worst, worst and most 139 00:08:56,817 --> 00:08:59,617 Speaker 1: expensive grocery stores you've ever seen in your life. Expensive 140 00:08:59,657 --> 00:09:01,737 Speaker 1: not to the people that chop there, but to the taxpayer. 141 00:09:02,337 --> 00:09:04,897 Speaker 1: I mean the amount of waste and fraud and abuse 142 00:09:04,937 --> 00:09:08,257 Speaker 1: that will go on and ultimately the real problem here, 143 00:09:09,177 --> 00:09:13,097 Speaker 1: the real problem here is that people are stealing from 144 00:09:13,137 --> 00:09:16,577 Speaker 1: these places. They say they're closed because of profitability, because 145 00:09:16,577 --> 00:09:19,697 Speaker 1: they don't want the problem really, how many if you 146 00:09:19,737 --> 00:09:22,297 Speaker 1: live in a nice you know, you know, sort of 147 00:09:22,377 --> 00:09:24,857 Speaker 1: middle class or above neighborhood, when was the last time 148 00:09:24,897 --> 00:09:27,457 Speaker 1: a grocery store closed that was a Whole Foods or 149 00:09:27,497 --> 00:09:33,097 Speaker 1: a wal Mart because they couldn't make money? When was 150 00:09:33,097 --> 00:09:37,737 Speaker 1: the last time that happened? Right? Yeah, The problem here 151 00:09:37,817 --> 00:09:40,937 Speaker 1: is people are stealing and they also the issue of 152 00:09:40,977 --> 00:09:43,057 Speaker 1: the food desert is an interesting This is something that 153 00:09:43,097 --> 00:09:45,337 Speaker 1: is often raised by people on the left. They talk 154 00:09:45,377 --> 00:09:48,377 Speaker 1: about things like tree equity. If you didn't know, that's 155 00:09:48,417 --> 00:09:53,057 Speaker 1: that there aren't enough trees in poorer neighborhoods, and so 156 00:09:53,097 --> 00:09:55,497 Speaker 1: they say that's unfair and I'm a big advocate of 157 00:09:55,497 --> 00:09:58,297 Speaker 1: trees and neighborhoods. But people have to take care of trees. 158 00:09:58,817 --> 00:10:03,137 Speaker 1: They have to not scratch the trees, write graffiti on 159 00:10:03,177 --> 00:10:05,737 Speaker 1: the trees, let the dogs urinate on the trees. Right. 160 00:10:05,777 --> 00:10:09,737 Speaker 1: You have to actually as a community, you have to 161 00:10:10,377 --> 00:10:14,537 Speaker 1: want to support these initiatives and people have to be 162 00:10:14,577 --> 00:10:18,097 Speaker 1: held to account who don't. But on the food desert issue, 163 00:10:18,137 --> 00:10:20,897 Speaker 1: they've done. They did a big under the Obama administration. 164 00:10:20,897 --> 00:10:24,137 Speaker 1: They had a big study on this and they were 165 00:10:24,217 --> 00:10:28,497 Speaker 1: incentivizing healthy food choices in grocery stores. They were subsidizing 166 00:10:28,977 --> 00:10:31,257 Speaker 1: because they said there are food deserts. There aren't enough 167 00:10:31,297 --> 00:10:36,857 Speaker 1: places that sell vegetables, fresh produce, you know, high quality 168 00:10:36,897 --> 00:10:42,937 Speaker 1: proteins in a lot of majority minority neighborhoods. That was 169 00:10:42,977 --> 00:10:47,017 Speaker 1: the story. And you say, okay, well, what happens when 170 00:10:47,017 --> 00:10:50,777 Speaker 1: they subsidize those choices for people? What happens when they 171 00:10:50,817 --> 00:10:52,697 Speaker 1: straight up say we will make it cheaper for you 172 00:10:52,777 --> 00:11:00,217 Speaker 1: to buy you know, lean ground beef and apricots and 173 00:11:00,457 --> 00:11:06,257 Speaker 1: Brussels sprouts and you know produce instead of soda chips 174 00:11:06,777 --> 00:11:09,737 Speaker 1: and just stuff that for your body is effectively on 175 00:11:09,857 --> 00:11:13,177 Speaker 1: health healthy crap. And you know what they found that 176 00:11:13,497 --> 00:11:19,497 Speaker 1: subsidizing and making more accessible in low income neighborhoods the 177 00:11:19,577 --> 00:11:21,777 Speaker 1: high quality produce. It is the Obama administration to this 178 00:11:21,817 --> 00:11:26,177 Speaker 1: big study, this is a federal study, did nothing. People 179 00:11:26,217 --> 00:11:28,417 Speaker 1: still want to buy what they want to buy. People 180 00:11:28,457 --> 00:11:30,897 Speaker 1: want to purchase soda, they want to purchase chips, they 181 00:11:30,897 --> 00:11:34,457 Speaker 1: want to purchase candy. And then you get into this 182 00:11:34,457 --> 00:11:35,817 Speaker 1: thing of like, well, are you not going to let 183 00:11:35,817 --> 00:11:40,977 Speaker 1: them do that if they use, for example, SNAPS Supplemental 184 00:11:41,017 --> 00:11:44,817 Speaker 1: Nutritional Assistance program. Also it's food stamps. Using food stamps, 185 00:11:44,857 --> 00:11:47,097 Speaker 1: you're going to not let them buy soda, You're going 186 00:11:47,137 --> 00:11:49,697 Speaker 1: to only let them buy low fat milk. Right, you 187 00:11:49,697 --> 00:11:55,297 Speaker 1: start to see how this becomes very authoritarian sounding very quickly. 188 00:11:56,617 --> 00:11:58,577 Speaker 1: That people should be allowed to make the food choices 189 00:11:58,617 --> 00:12:00,657 Speaker 1: that they want to make. Right, we all agree on that, 190 00:12:01,177 --> 00:12:04,657 Speaker 1: and the government trying to incentivize different food choices has 191 00:12:04,697 --> 00:12:09,217 Speaker 1: not worked, has not worked, and it is not good 192 00:12:09,257 --> 00:12:11,777 Speaker 1: at that. So you can try to talk about all 193 00:12:11,817 --> 00:12:14,857 Speaker 1: the organic farmers' markets you want in poor areas of 194 00:12:14,857 --> 00:12:18,177 Speaker 1: major cities. They're not gonna catch on any time soon. 195 00:12:18,697 --> 00:12:21,657 Speaker 1: We've already seen this. People have already tried. And as 196 00:12:21,697 --> 00:12:26,577 Speaker 1: for city owned grocery stores. I mean, can you imagine 197 00:12:26,937 --> 00:12:32,337 Speaker 1: the amount of theft and just mismanagement that would go on, 198 00:12:32,377 --> 00:12:35,017 Speaker 1: would be true, would just be appalling. You know, it's 199 00:12:35,057 --> 00:12:37,737 Speaker 1: like the DMV.
