We had a mass 16 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:54,520 Speaker 1: shooting that was averted from being a mass casualty event. 17 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 1: Would have been much bigger mass casualty event than it was. 18 00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 1: I believe three people were killed in that shooting in Indiana. 19 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:06,160 Speaker 1: Them we've got more of the UVAL day after action 20 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:08,480 Speaker 1: report to look at, and it's just it was a 21 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 1: total breakdown. I've been saying it for weeks. Clay's been 22 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 1: saying it for weeks. This is just the reality, and 23 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 1: we still have I think as one of the top 24 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 1: three issues in the country, driving sentiment for voters and 25 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 1: pushing people to consider not just the Biden administration, but 26 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 1: the Democrat approach. The Democrat platform to have been disastrously wrongheaded, 27 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 1: and that might be far too kind way of putting it. 28 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: Is on the issue of crime and on what has 29 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 1: been done to this country, not just about defunding the police. 30 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: Defund police was one of many symptoms of the anti 31 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 1: law enforcement, anti law and order left. There are progressive prosecutors, 32 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 1: there's the ending of mass incarceration, legislation, no cash bail, 33 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 1: all of these things. In the state of California, an attorney, 34 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 1: a district attorney who hopefully will lose his job soon, 35 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: Clay Gascon who decided that he could override the three 36 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: strikes law that his own state legislator passed because he 37 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 1: felt like it. All of this, this attitude of legalizing criminality, 38 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 1: of being a friend to the criminals and ignoring the 39 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 1: victims in our society, this has led to deterioration all 40 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 1: across the country, and I bring you now the story 41 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,919 Speaker 1: out of Minneapolis over the weekend where you had an 42 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 1: individual named Techley Sundberg who was standing outside an apartment 43 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 1: building over the weekend on Saturday, and he was shooting. 44 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 1: He shot multiple rounds, multiple rounds into a woman's apartment. 45 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 1: She was home. Her name is Arabella fosse Yarborough. She 46 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,920 Speaker 1: was home with her two children when bullets are going 47 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 1: right through her window from someone standing right there. It's 48 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,359 Speaker 1: not like it was an errand bullet, a bullet from 49 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 1: a mile away. He's shooting into her apartment, missus, her 50 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 1: ear and her children. There's then a multi hour standoff 51 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 1: with law enforcement. Sunburg refuses, despite the entreaties of law 52 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,079 Speaker 1: enforcement and his own father, to come down from a 53 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 1: ledge and to stop being a threat, a lethal threat 54 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,800 Speaker 1: to the people around him. Law enforcement finally says, we 55 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 1: cannot risk this anymore. They shoot him. A sharpshooter on 56 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:33,639 Speaker 1: the law enforcement at the law enforcement scene shot him 57 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 1: and Clay. All of a sudden, we have BLM protests 58 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 1: about how this was racist because Techle Sunburg is a 59 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 1: twenty year old black man, so they're saying this is racist. 60 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 1: It doesn't appear to be racist to the woman who 61 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 1: confronted the BLM protesters. However, here she is as she's 62 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 1: telling everybody that she almost had her life taken away. 63 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 1: George Blake was that d Brianna Taylor was not hardy 64 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 1: to kill us. He was alive my kids to see 65 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 1: you guys tell the rats like t kill us. It's 66 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: kind of amazing that all of the BLM protesters were 67 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: protesting on behalf of a guy who almost killed a 68 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,919 Speaker 1: mom and her kids. And not only did that happen, 69 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:30,040 Speaker 1: she then went out into the street and confronted them 70 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 1: to say, hey, y'all are protesting on behalf of a 71 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: guy who tried to kill me. I'm not sure that 72 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 1: we have ever seen a more unjust protest, directly confronted 73 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 1: by a witness to how unjust the protest was to 74 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 1: the victim. The woman who was huddling with her children's 75 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 1: bullets were going. The actual victim in this case went 76 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 1: out to her credit would have been easy for her 77 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 1: to hide and actually confronted all these protesters. And this 78 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 1: is where we are, buck, this is where we are. 79 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: There is such a desperate demand for victims that the 80 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: number of victims is not supplying the need for the 81 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: anger and the angst on behalf of the protesters. This 82 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 1: happened in New York City. Last was at last Summer 83 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,480 Speaker 1: Buck when do you remember there was a big fight 84 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: outside of a restaurant in New York City because that 85 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 1: was when New York City was requiring vaccine proof And 86 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: then they tried to accuse the Asian woman working the 87 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 1: front counter at the restaurant in New York City of 88 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,839 Speaker 1: being racist. And BLM started to protest outside of the 89 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 1: restaurant and they said, wait a minute, you can see 90 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 1: it on the video. All she was doing is having 91 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: to ask for proof of vaccination, which was stupid, we 92 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 1: all know, but that was her job at the front desk. 93 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 1: She did nothing wrong, and BLM was like, we're gonna 94 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: shut this place down if we have to. And then 95 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 1: it fizzled out when the video came out and they said, well, 96 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 1: you know, I mean this girl, first of all, she's 97 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 1: a twenty two year old Asian girl or whatever. She 98 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 1: was not exactly somebody in a position of great power 99 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 1: working the front counter of a restaurant. And it's similar here. 100 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 1: The demand for victimization is far greater than the supply, 101 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:25,840 Speaker 1: so you end up with situations such as these. And 102 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:29,239 Speaker 1: what we didn't play in that audio because mostly because 103 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 1: it would turn into a lot of bleeps because we 104 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: couldn't air it was that the protesters. So so let's 105 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,799 Speaker 1: just set the scene again. Apartment building, crazy guy shooting 106 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 1: a gun into his neighbor's apartment, standoff with police. He 107 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: is shot because he is a clear and present danger 108 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 1: to the shot around sniper while he's armed, after he 109 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 1: has tried to shoot into this apartment, and then the BLM. 110 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: You know, hey, what are we gonna do this weekend? 111 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,279 Speaker 1: Let's all get together and protest police violence because we're 112 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: really cool and and moral. They get together and have 113 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 1: a vigil and a march at this apartment building for 114 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: the crazy guy who was shooting at people. Okay, look, 115 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 1: it's a sad situation as far as the guy clearly 116 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:15,840 Speaker 1: has you know, mental illness, But well, what are you 117 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 1: gonna do? You're gonna let him kill people? I mean, 118 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 1: they're crazy people running around with an aspiring his weapon. 119 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 1: What do you expect for police to do? And what 120 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 1: should they do? They should take him out. And the 121 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 1: mother here of the two children who had to huddle 122 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: with her own children in her apartment as her neighbors 123 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 1: shooting at her, confronts these protesters, and you know what 124 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 1: they do. They heap verbal abuse on her. That was 125 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 1: the other you know, you're you're still alive, you should 126 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 1: you know, shut the bleep up. I mean, you know, 127 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: they they start telling your story, they start attacking her, 128 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 1: the woman who is just trying to live her life. 129 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: Where where their babies or children's getting shot at? And 130 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 1: the so so moral and self righteous BLM protesters are 131 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 1: at hacking her because she throws a little problem into 132 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: their narrative. But see, this is always true. BLM likes 133 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 1: to elevate people as martyrs who are often criminals and 134 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 1: who are even engaged in violent criminal acts at the 135 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 1: point of violence with law enforcement or others, and they 136 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 1: don't care about actual victims of crime. Yeah, and Minneapolis, 137 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 1: which is where this is taking place. Buck of all 138 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 1: cities in America, I'm not sure there is a city 139 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:35,680 Speaker 1: right now that is under more duress because of BLM 140 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 1: protests than Minneapolis. They can't hire people to actually be 141 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 1: cops in Minneapolis. The number of actual police on the 142 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 1: streets in Minneapolis has collapsed. They have off the charts 143 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: level crime, murder, violent acts. If you're listening to us 144 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 1: right now in Minneapolis, you know exactly why I'm talking 145 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 1: about because people left as so this is the truth. 146 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 1: This is one of the things that Rush nailed. The 147 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 1: drive by media shows up to cover the protests, they 148 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 1: don't stay in any way to cover the consequences of 149 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 1: the protest because the media is not there anymore, and 150 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 1: they don't see how unsafe Minneapolis is. They don't see 151 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 1: all the police deciding to resign and retire rather than 152 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 1: continue to work. And they don't cover the victims of 153 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 1: the massive increase in violence, who are overwhelmingly guess what, 154 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 1: black and inner city residents who no longer have the 155 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:46,559 Speaker 1: police to help protect them, and the media doesn't care 156 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 1: about their story anymore. And the same thing for these 157 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 1: BLM protesters who show up protesting this guy who was 158 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 1: trying to kill people that the police took out, making 159 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:59,440 Speaker 1: tensions even greater inside of the community. I believe the 160 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 1: video we showed Buck we talked about of the little 161 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 1: kid who was throwing punches, Remember the like toddler that 162 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 1: was Minneapolis too. The culture of rot that has taken 163 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 1: root in many of our cities, but particularly places like Minneapolis, 164 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 1: is so bad that you're creating the situations for more 165 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: interactions of violence between police and the people they're trying 166 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 1: to protect in the years ahead. Local police come from 167 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:31,200 Speaker 1: the communities that they police. They're actually people's neighbors who 168 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:32,839 Speaker 1: happen to have a gun at a badge and a 169 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 1: job to do. But this treatment of law enforcement as 170 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 1: the enemy, particularly in high crime neighborhoods, as part of 171 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,319 Speaker 1: this ethos of the far left, this idea that the 172 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 1: cops are the problem. This is the inversion of reality. 173 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 1: This results in a thirty percent increase in homicides nationwide, 174 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 1: in a lot more people going to funerals for teenagers 175 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 1: and little kids, people in their twenties who are being 176 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 1: murdered at completely horrific rates in cities like Chicago and 177 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 1: Minneapolis and many others now. And one of the things 178 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 1: that holds this all back is that the Democrat apparatus 179 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: does not want the public to see that they admit 180 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 1: they were wrong about all of this, so they'd rather 181 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:25,440 Speaker 1: just keep this moving along as it is than say, wow, wow, 182 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 1: all that bending the new and BLM is so important 183 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: for society. That was done in June and July and 184 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 1: August of twenty twenty by corporate America, by everybody on 185 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:38,319 Speaker 1: the left and all the Democrats. It was atrocious for everybody. 186 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 1: BLM made everything worse for everyone. Thousands of people are 187 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:45,719 Speaker 1: dead today that would have been alive if police were 188 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:49,200 Speaker 1: able to do their jobs, and the only time violence 189 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 1: gets covered by and large. I think that Chicago Highland 190 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 1: Park as awful as it was buck That happens every 191 00:11:56,640 --> 00:12:00,080 Speaker 1: single weekend in Chicago except its inner city victims, and 192 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 1: nobody cares. No media covers it every weekend virtually all 193 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 1: year round. In Chicago, they have a Highland Park total 194 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 1: crime victim tally like that, and almost no one even blinks. 195 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 1: It barely even makes the news.

Travis buck Sexton show. One big 217 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:38,560 Speaker 1: story that popped over the weekend that continues to define 218 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 1: the craziness of the modern Democrat Party. You'll remember Leah Thomas, 219 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:50,079 Speaker 1: Penn's transgender swimmer who won the five hundred. The University 220 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:55,840 Speaker 1: of Pennsylvania nominated her for Woman of the Year. This 221 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,840 Speaker 1: is a top award given out by the NC DOUBLEA 222 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 1: for the top women's athletes, and we are going to 223 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:06,719 Speaker 1: have I give credit to her for speaking out. One 224 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:11,680 Speaker 1: of the women who swam directly against Leah Thomas, Riley 225 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 1: Gaines from the University of Kentucky and Buck, I don't 226 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 1: know if you saw her tweets, but she responded to 227 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 1: me when I put out this story about Leah Thomas, 228 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 1: and most women's athletes have been afraid to say something. 229 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: Even the parents have been afraid to say what they 230 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 1: really think. And I just want to hit you with 231 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 1: these tweets that she sent and I read them and 232 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 1: I was like, thank you, thank you that someone is 233 00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 1: finally actually speaking out and saying what virtually anyone with 234 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: a functional brain believes, which is a biological man shouldn't 235 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 1: get the opportunity to compete against women. Here's what Riley 236 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 1: Gaines said, Buck. There's a picture up of Leah Thomas 237 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:03,240 Speaker 1: standing neck to Riley Gaines after their race, and she 238 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 1: said as follows, being the real girl in that photo. 239 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 1: And also the University of Kentucky's nominee for NC Double 240 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 1: A Woman of the Year, this is yet another slap 241 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 1: in the face to women first a female national title, 242 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 1: which was won by Leah Thomas and now nominated for 243 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 1: the Pinnacle Award in Collegiate Athletics. The NC DOUBLEA has 244 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 1: made this award worthless, she continued. This award combines athletic 245 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 1: performance with academic service and character. What character has Thomas 246 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:45,800 Speaker 1: shown other than sheer, selfishness and entitlement. The disrespect and 247 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 1: disregard for the other female athletes in Thomas's interviews is 248 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:56,440 Speaker 1: eye opening. Wow, well, said Riley Gaines. University of Kentucky 249 00:15:56,520 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 1: should be proud because that's also well written and well delivered. 250 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 1: She is well educated, and she is not afraid, and 251 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,240 Speaker 1: she's gonna be on with us now Buck Wednesday of 252 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 1: this week to discuss this story, dropping cannon balls of 253 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 1: truth into the deep end of the pool there. How 254 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 1: great is that it was this phenomenal? It's true, But 255 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 1: there is a broader point here as well, and it 256 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 1: is that the libs, the media same thing, so passive 257 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 1: aggressive on this issue all the time. They'll say, what's 258 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 1: the big deal? Just use someone's preferred pars, what's the 259 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 1: big deal? Just be accepting it's not that many people. 260 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 1: Why do you care so much? And then you go oh, 261 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 1: they try to exhaust the general public on these topics, 262 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 1: and then it's oh, look at this, We're giving the 263 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 1: Woman of the Year award to a man. And then 264 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 1: what do you sit there? You say, We'll hold on 265 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 1: a second. What do you I thought you said this 266 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 1: wasn't a big woman of the year and we want 267 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 1: to slap in the face to women, right, But this 268 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 1: is what they always do. Why is it such a 269 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 1: big deal. Why can't you be nicer? Why can't you 270 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 1: be more accommodating? And they exhaust you with that, and 271 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 1: then the moment that you know, you think, all right, well, 272 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:04,880 Speaker 1: you know, maybe I guess whether they're going, oh, woman 273 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:06,919 Speaker 1: of the Year is actually a man. This is the 274 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:10,120 Speaker 1: way they play the game all the time, particularly on 275 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 1: this issue, because the general public is not with them 276 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:17,639 Speaker 1: on this. Yeah. And to Riley Gaines's point, this is 277 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 1: the This is the unmatched award for excellence delivered by 278 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:26,399 Speaker 1: the nc DOUBLEA, And all of these women have worked 279 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 1: their entire lives to be the nominees of their respective schools. 280 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,880 Speaker 1: So I think the University of Pennsylvania deserves a great 281 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 1: deal of criticism here. But the fact that of women's 282 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:42,080 Speaker 1: athletes agree with Riley Gaines, but are afraid to say 283 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 1: what they really think because they're worried about whether they'll 284 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 1: get a job at an investment bank buck, They're worried 285 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: about whether they'll get into a grad school, and so 286 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 1: as a result, we have this stultifying culture of silence. 287 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,240 Speaker 1: My friends can use to build. If you own a business, 288 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:58,679 Speaker 1: the road has been bumpy, a lot of potholes, from 289 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 1: the pandemic to inflation, one thing after another. If your 290 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:05,919 Speaker 1: business has five or more employees and manage to survive COVID, 291 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,439 Speaker 1: you could be eligible to receive a payroll tax rebate 292 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 1: up up to twenty six thousand dollars per employee.

We have Stephen Miller with us now former 308 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:08,159 Speaker 1: senior advisor to President Trump and president of America First Legal. Stephen, 309 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 1: great to have you back on the program. It's great 310 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 1: to be back. Thank you. So you're on the front 311 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,879 Speaker 1: lines of the legal fight in so many ways, but 312 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,640 Speaker 1: I wanted you to tell everybody about what America First 313 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 1: Legal is doing when it comes to when it comes 314 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:27,400 Speaker 1: to places like Dick Sporting Goods offering benefits to employees 315 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 1: who abort their children but not offering equivalent benefits to 316 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 1: mothers who actually give birth. Tell us about this. Yeah, So, 317 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:40,959 Speaker 1: America First Legal recently launched a new effort to go 318 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:45,200 Speaker 1: after Will corporations for violating the civil rights of their 319 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:50,160 Speaker 1: employees and the American people in general. And tragically, Dick 320 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:54,440 Speaker 1: Sporting Goods is at the leading edge of the will 321 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 1: corruption of Corporate America, and they have announced to policy 322 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 1: which provide finds a four thousand dollars subsidy to pregnant 323 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 1: mothers who abort or terminate the child living inside their womb, 324 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 1: but no equivalent such benefit to pregnant mothers who choose 325 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 1: to allow that child to continue living and ultimately be born, 326 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 1: which violates federal civil rights law, specifically Title seven of 327 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 1: the US Civil Rights Act, as amended by the Pregnancy 328 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 1: Discrimination Act, which forbids discrimination against pregnant moms, and obviously, 329 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 1: by financially incentivizing pregnant moms to terminate the baby, they 330 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,680 Speaker 1: are discriminating in an illegal way against those mothers. Dick 331 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:47,000 Speaker 1: Sporting Goods also has adopted a formal published system of 332 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 1: racial quotas in making decisions about hiring in promotion, which 333 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 1: again facially violates US federal civil rights law. And so 334 00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 1: Dick's CEOs or Dick's executives and EO and corporate leaders 335 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:05,880 Speaker 1: are all engaged in this scheme to break the law 336 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,439 Speaker 1: and violate the rights of their employees. So we filed 337 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 1: a formal federal civil rights complaint following the process outlined 338 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 1: in Federal Civil rights law to hopefully initiate action against 339 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 1: exporting goods for violating all of these various federal laws. 340 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,920 Speaker 1: And I would also say to everyone listening today, if 341 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:29,280 Speaker 1: you are an employee of disporting goods, if you know 342 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 1: someone who is an employee, please contact us at af 343 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 1: legal dot org. That's af legal dot org so that 344 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 1: we can potentially represent you if facts worn. Steve, this 345 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 1: is amazing the work that you're doing, because, on the 346 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 1: one hand, if you take a step back, this is 347 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 1: one of the most craven business moves I've ever seen. 348 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:59,119 Speaker 1: Because if you have a baby, you are pregnant, and 349 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:01,920 Speaker 1: you have to which is we have protection for pregnant moms. 350 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:06,680 Speaker 1: You are you're working through your pregnancy. You typically are 351 00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:09,880 Speaker 1: taking time off after you have a baby. When they 352 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:14,199 Speaker 1: are paying people to have abortions, they're basically ensuring that 353 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:17,400 Speaker 1: they almost have no lost work days, right. I mean, 354 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:19,119 Speaker 1: on the one hand, if you go back and actually 355 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 1: you look at this, it's it's like, Wow, this is 356 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 1: incredibly craven, and so that an it's the most self 357 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 1: it's the most self interested, cold blooded bottom line calculation 358 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 1: you can imagine, which is basically, you're not going to 359 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:38,400 Speaker 1: miss time for your Obi Julian appointments. You're not gonna 360 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:41,160 Speaker 1: miss time or labor and deliver, You're not gonna miss 361 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,879 Speaker 1: time for bonding with a new kids. You're just gonna 362 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 1: keep showing up. You're gonna grind it out in our 363 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:48,879 Speaker 1: stores or in the corporate ladder, and you're not going 364 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 1: to miss a day. And so we're basically going to 365 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 1: save money by paying you to have an abortion. It's 366 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 1: really sick stuff. Yeah, And so that part I think 367 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 1: of this this lawsuit is a early wild But also 368 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 1: I'm curious what you expect. Buck and I have talked 369 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 1: someone this show about the Supreme Court finally taking back 370 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:11,680 Speaker 1: up affirmative Action, and you mentioned civil rights violations predicated 371 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 1: on hiring or firing based on race or not permitted 372 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 1: under United States law. What do you think is going 373 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:21,719 Speaker 1: to happen when the affirmative Action case, which has been 374 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 1: taken by the Supreme Court and will be heard this fall, 375 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:28,399 Speaker 1: presumably based on just looking at the past writings and 376 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 1: also the Supreme Court makeup right now, is going to 377 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 1: be struck down. What is that going to do to 378 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 1: your opportunity to also pursue lawsuits like these? Oh, it's 379 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 1: going to be it's going to be revolutionary. The Supreme 380 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:47,240 Speaker 1: Court ruling in the affirmative action case, which is really 381 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 1: just a racial quota's case disguise a s affirmative action, 382 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: has the potential to be earth shattering. I believe that 383 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:59,920 Speaker 1: we have five judges who will vote to uphold equal 384 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,679 Speaker 1: justice and equal rights in America, and that's what this 385 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 1: comes down to. You have, in this case Harvard University, 386 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:09,360 Speaker 1: but you have universities all over the country that are 387 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:15,399 Speaker 1: engaging in wantonly vehrlently discriminatory behavior they solely on skin 388 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:18,439 Speaker 1: color or ethnic background in a way that is so 389 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 1: plainly in violation of federal law, not to mention the 390 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:29,359 Speaker 1: Equal Protection clause of the Constitution. It is just so 391 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 1: completely transparently lawless. I pray to God we'll get those 392 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 1: sigh votes and that will open up, hopefully the floodgates 393 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:43,439 Speaker 1: to much needed litigation to begin shutting down these practices 394 00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 1: all across the private and public sector. We're speaking to 395 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:50,359 Speaker 1: Stephen Miller, former senior visor to President Trump and the 396 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:54,439 Speaker 1: current president of the America First Legal Foundation. Stephen, you 397 00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 1: also might have seen that a federal judge just a 398 00:24:57,320 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 1: couple of days ago blocked the iiden Education Departments expansion 399 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 1: effectively of Title nine through guidance, which would have prohibited 400 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:11,359 Speaker 1: discrimination based on gender identity. So this now brings the 401 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 1: trans issue into Title nine and federal civil rights law. 402 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 1: The judge put it put a temporary hold on this one, 403 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:25,920 Speaker 1: but essentially you've got twenty Republican attorneys general, led by 404 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 1: Tennessee Attorney General Herbert Slattery and clays home State saying, well, 405 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:35,400 Speaker 1: what are we supposed to do about gender segregated sports 406 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:39,680 Speaker 1: under Title nine? Saying that trans individuals can't be discriminated Again, 407 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:42,199 Speaker 1: It's like, how do you see this playing out? Well, 408 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 1: it's an incredibly important ruling, And you know, one of 409 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:50,120 Speaker 1: the reasons why I got into litigation after leaving the administration, 410 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 1: it's because so many have not. Frankly, most of our 411 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:55,919 Speaker 1: cultural battles that are going to decide the future of 412 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:57,639 Speaker 1: this country are going to be decided in our courts 413 00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: of law. As we're beginning to see a lot of 414 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:06,119 Speaker 1: brave attorneys general fighting back against the radical gender ideology 415 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:10,359 Speaker 1: and the administration's implementation of it in our court system. 416 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:13,439 Speaker 1: And my organization has a very important lawsuit in this 417 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:17,680 Speaker 1: area as well, and I would say that it gets 418 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:19,679 Speaker 1: back to the same issue, which is that all of 419 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 1: these trans policies are facially discriminatory against women. And so 420 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 1: we created this whole body of federal civil rights law 421 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:34,440 Speaker 1: to protect women's spaces, to create separate leagues for women's sports, 422 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:37,199 Speaker 1: in order to ensure that women are not discrimated against 423 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:40,399 Speaker 1: because they are women. And now we have, in the 424 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 1: name of trans ideology, we have men taking opportunities away 425 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:48,360 Speaker 1: from women right and left, not to mention, invading their 426 00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:51,320 Speaker 1: personal spaces. And we've all seen the stories about, you know, 427 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:54,359 Speaker 1: for example, naked men parading around women's locker rooms and 428 00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:56,879 Speaker 1: things of that nature. In fact, my organization has a 429 00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 1: lawsuit against Loudon County Public Schools in Virginia which alleges, 430 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 1: among other things, that students are being forced to share 431 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 1: bathrooms and locker rooms against their will with the opposite sex. 432 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,439 Speaker 1: It's absolutely insane. I mean it truly is. I mean, 433 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:15,679 Speaker 1: Steve and I we were talking with Senator Ron Johnson 434 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,200 Speaker 1: last hour, and I don't know that we ever would 435 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 1: have ended up in a situation where you have to 436 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,200 Speaker 1: in order to be able to get a Democrat nomination 437 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:28,240 Speaker 1: for the state or Senate. You have to be willing 438 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 1: to not say that only women can get pregnant, like 439 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 1: you have to say men can get pregnant, or they 440 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 1: will not nominate you basically for a statewide or certainly 441 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 1: national office. Now it's become the most important litmus tests 442 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:45,760 Speaker 1: in America. Yeah, we would be wise to use it 443 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 1: in reverse, which to say to the American people, do 444 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:52,040 Speaker 1: not support any person for any position of power anywhere 445 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,719 Speaker 1: in this country, from your school board to the office 446 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,400 Speaker 1: of the presidency if they are not prepared to say 447 00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 1: the only women can get pregnant. This wild that we 448 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 1: ever got. This is this is now. We're now on 449 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:05,920 Speaker 1: the cutting edge of conservative theory here by just saying 450 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 1: only men can get pregnant. Clay, this is where we are. 451 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 1: Only women could get press. You got crossed over, hardened. 452 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:13,920 Speaker 1: Your Bluck's gonna be the nominee for the Democratic Only 453 00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:18,280 Speaker 1: women could get pregnant. Sorry, Sorry, last question about this 454 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 1: that I encouraged everyone to think about today, which it 455 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 1: was a picture of someone trying to get off the Titanic. 456 00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:27,680 Speaker 1: I shared it this morning. It's so good. Yes, only 457 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 1: women and children can leave. And then the gentleman said 458 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 1: someone to the effect of oh, I'm trans. How was 459 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 1: the Titanic evacuation? Who worked? If the trans ateology have 460 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 1: been in place back then? Is such a great meme 461 00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 1: for people out there who remember the movie Titanic. The 462 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,720 Speaker 1: bad guy in Titanic is trying to get on the 463 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 1: lifeboats and the guy says only women and children, and 464 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 1: then the next shot is him saying I'm trans and 465 00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 1: then I mean, it is really it's ridiculous and funny one, 466 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:57,719 Speaker 1: but what would you do that? One of Billy Zane's 467 00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 1: better moments in film is when they say the people 468 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 1: on the ship are going to drown. He's like nothing 469 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 1: better half. By the way, he definitely's a Biden voter. 470 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna say it, Oh my goodness, and is 471 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 1: a fantastic line. Steven. We appreciate the time, keep up 472 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:14,520 Speaker 1: the good work, Thank you, touch soon. Claim we got 473 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 1: some breaking news, buddy, I haven't told you what. There's 474 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 1: some breaking news. Could could be kind of a big deal. 475 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:22,160 Speaker 1: That's what we call a vague teas. What do you 476 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 1: think that is a vague teas? Indeed, I'm looking up. 477 00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh man, I got so wrapped up and 478 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 1: how good that meme was, I don't even know what 479 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 1: the breaking news is myself. It involves nukes. I can 480 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 1: tell you that. Oh that, well, that sounds pretty serious.

Help us set a new all time record. 516 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:21,080 Speaker 1: In July, I mentioned Buck that I had finished Endurance, 517 00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: which was your recommendation if we had to Clay and 518 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:27,600 Speaker 1: Buck book club here and that built off of me 519 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,120 Speaker 1: telling you Undaunted Courage was really good. And then we 520 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 1: had a conversation surrounding Unbroken all three of those and 521 00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:37,880 Speaker 1: I will respond. I said, they were all great stories 522 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 1: of American will and ingenuity and endurance. They're British, all right, 523 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:47,240 Speaker 1: So I've acknowledged the Brits were involved in Endurance, which 524 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:50,400 Speaker 1: an incredible book. I got a suggestion from one of you, 525 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 1: I think one of you emailed in an ali Our 526 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 1: producer forwarded it and I already had this book, but 527 00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:58,560 Speaker 1: I hadn't started to read it. I did over the 528 00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 1: weekend The Boy He's in the Boat, about a nineteen 529 00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 1: thirty six Olympic rowing team originating from outs from Washington. 530 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 1: We got a lot of listeners now in the Seattle 531 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 1: area where the University of Washington is located, and it's fantastic. 532 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:17,520 Speaker 1: I'm about halfway through it, Buck, I'm in the mood 533 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:21,720 Speaker 1: right now to read books about people triumphing and overcoming 534 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,720 Speaker 1: difficulty and everything else, and all those books kind of 535 00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 1: run together in the indomitable spirit of the American will, 536 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 1: and I'm loving it. I rode crew at Amherst for 537 00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: three seasons. Oh I didn't know that, Yes, I did. 538 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 1: And I can tell you that it involved in New 539 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 1: England at least getting up very early, being very cold, 540 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:48,200 Speaker 1: and having your hands look like uncooked hamburger meat pretty 541 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:50,720 Speaker 1: much four or five months of the year at a 542 00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 1: time from rowing with a wooden ore for hours and hours. 543 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 1: So what got you into the idea of rowing? I 544 00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 1: had no idea. You've done that? Oh yeah, no, they had, 545 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 1: They had try so basically the tryouts involved being on 546 00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:05,280 Speaker 1: an ERG machine, so it was just almost like a 547 00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:08,040 Speaker 1: general strength fitness thing. And then they would put you 548 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 1: they would put you in in boats. But now some 549 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 1: people were recruited or came from from high schools where 550 00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:16,320 Speaker 1: they had already been rowers. But to fill out all 551 00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:18,400 Speaker 1: the boats, they basically said, look, we'll teach you to row. 552 00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:22,720 Speaker 1: If you can pull a certain score on ERG machines, 553 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:25,040 Speaker 1: you'll be in a ERG machine rowing machine. Same thing, 554 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 1: um side. Note. By the way, even people who are 555 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:31,040 Speaker 1: very fit, far far far better shaped than me, of 556 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 1: which there are, unfortunately for me, far too many people 557 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:35,920 Speaker 1: do not know what the hell they're doing on the 558 00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 1: rowing machine in the gym. It is the most misused 559 00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:42,280 Speaker 1: piece of equipment. People look like they look like a caterpillar. 560 00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 1: That's probably one of them. Yeah, they have no idea 561 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 1: what they're doing, like a caterpillar that's been electrocuted. But 562 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 1: it's important to know how to do that one properly. 563 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 1: But anyway, um, yeah, I rowed and was I froze. 564 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 1: I didn't do it for very long three seasons and 565 00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 1: uh and then really season is a long time. Three months. 566 00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:02,160 Speaker 1: Maybe he's not very long. Oh no, I did it 567 00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 1: for years a freshman year, sophomore year, and I stopped 568 00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 1: at the end of sophomore year. It is rowing for 569 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:10,440 Speaker 1: those you've done it, it's you have to really love 570 00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:12,480 Speaker 1: it because it is just physical punishment. It's it's a 571 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:14,920 Speaker 1: little bit like it's a it's an endurance sport. So 572 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 1: it's for people who like things like they're like, yeah, 573 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:19,360 Speaker 1: like I really want to do one of those fifty 574 00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:22,120 Speaker 1: mile ultra marathons. And then I always hear the stories 575 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:24,200 Speaker 1: about these guys. They're like, it was it was amazing. 576 00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,920 Speaker 1: The blisters covered my entire feet and my nipples were 577 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 1: bleeding from the chafing, but I loved every second of it. 578 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:32,600 Speaker 1: I'm like, that doesn't sound like fun to me, that 579 00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:34,600 Speaker 1: those things are not for me. I did a half 580 00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:37,960 Speaker 1: marathon when Laura, my wife, was before we had our 581 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:39,799 Speaker 1: second kid. She was like, we need to do something together. 582 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:42,719 Speaker 1: We're gonna run the Nashville half marathon. And so I 583 00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:45,280 Speaker 1: hate running. I mean I would. I don't hate running 584 00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:48,239 Speaker 1: in a sport. I hate just being outside running like 585 00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:51,400 Speaker 1: over and over same thing. So we started to train. 586 00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:55,600 Speaker 1: She found out she was pregnant about halfway through and 587 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 1: then was too big to be doing the you know, 588 00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:00,320 Speaker 1: twelve and a half miles or whatever the heck it 589 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 1: is of running at thirteen point one and so I 590 00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:07,400 Speaker 1: did it, and they take your photo when you crossed 591 00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:10,320 Speaker 1: the finish line, and they said, hey, this will change 592 00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:12,440 Speaker 1: you know, you train for a half marathon or a marathon, 593 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:15,200 Speaker 1: You're gonna feel so much better about yourself. And there 594 00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 1: is a still photo of me crossing the finish line 595 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 1: the half marathon, and I look utterly disgusted. It's a 596 00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 1: perfect representation of it. Because the only thing I could 597 00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:27,279 Speaker 1: think when I finished was I wasted so much time 598 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:30,920 Speaker 1: training for this. And I'm not an incredible athlete or 599 00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:32,880 Speaker 1: even a very good athlete by any or even a 600 00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:35,760 Speaker 1: good by any stretch of the imagination. But when Oprah 601 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:39,360 Speaker 1: Winfrey ran a marathon, which she did. I don't have 602 00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 1: any doubt that if I trained enough, I have the 603 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:46,719 Speaker 1: ability to do it. I hate the time and the 604 00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 1: effort that goes into training for something that takes out. 605 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:52,160 Speaker 1: By the way, I did say that there was breaking news, 606 00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:56,000 Speaker 1: and I know I wanted to tell yeah. Instead, Iran 607 00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:57,920 Speaker 1: says they can build a nuke anytime they want. At 608 00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:00,200 Speaker 1: this point that they've enriched a sixty percent and get 609 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:02,239 Speaker 1: to ninety percent. The last thirty percent is a much 610 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:05,120 Speaker 1: faster process. So we're gonna be hearing a lot more 611 00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:09,640 Speaker 1: about a nuclear Iran, as in a nuclear weapon holding Iran. 612 00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 1: Everybody on Biden's watch, war in Ukraine, nuclear Iran up next, 613 00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:18,560 Speaker 1: and maybe China invading Taiwan. That's quite a foreign policy 614 00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 1: he's got going. And Russia's visiting Iran right now. And 615 00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:25,359 Speaker 1: the way you'll know whether Iran has a nuclear weapon 616 00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 1: capability or not, Buck, it's based on whether we attack them, 617 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,799 Speaker 1: because if we attack them and they have nuclear weapon capabilities, 618 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:36,040 Speaker 1: oh that really gets scary. We're just leaving some things 619 00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:37,719 Speaker 1: to the very end here. That's why you got to 620 00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:40,399 Speaker 1: join us. Tomorrow we'll break all this down and more 621 00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 1: Clay in buck Over and out fleet, Travis and buck 622 00:36:51,280 --> 00:37:01,240 Speaker 1: Sexton on the front lines. Three
