1
00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:15,480
Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom huge. It is the anniversary

2
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:19,040
Speaker 1: of nine to eleven. Have we won the war on terrorism?

3
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:24,760
Speaker 1: Muller's team wiped or lost twenty seven phones? Totally clear.

4
00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:29,560
Speaker 1: Biden spokesman tries to duck blow the question. The NFL

5
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:33,920
Speaker 1: protests and is met with booze and lu Lemon wants

6
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:38,880
Speaker 1: you to resist capitalism. This is the Buck Sexon Show,

7
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:41,960
Speaker 1: where the mission or mission is to decode what really

8
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 1: matters with passionable intelligence. Make no mistake your great American again,

9
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 1: the Buck Sexon Show begins. He's a great guy. Now,

10
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 1: welcome friends for the Bucks Acton Show. Honor to have

11
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 1: you here with me. As we all know, today is

12
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 1: a day that we will always remember as a country.

13
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,639
Speaker 1: I know there's a lot of people sharing their personal memories.

14
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 1: I'll tell you about some of mine over the course

15
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 1: of today. But it changed many lives. We lost many lives,

16
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:23,479
Speaker 1: and it also altered the course of the entire world. Right,

17
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 1: the future of the planet was changed on this day,

18
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 1: back on September eleventh, two thousand, nineteen. Years have passed,

19
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 1: and obviously it has been a series of events that

20
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 1: led up to this and then after it that we

21
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 1: have had to confront that we know of as the

22
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 1: war on Terror. And I have to say, those who

23
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 1: told us that we would never have a signing on

24
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:56,920
Speaker 1: the deck of the aircraft carrier to signal the end

25
00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 1: of this, we're correct. There hasn't been a day in

26
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 1: which we would say that the War on Terror is over,

27
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 1: because the war on terror will never be over. There's

28
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:10,079
Speaker 1: no such thing terror as a tactic that stretches back

29
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 1: for as long as there's been human society of any kind.

30
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:16,840
Speaker 1: People use violence and fear for their own advantage, for

31
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 1: the acquisition of power. But if we're talking about radical Jehotism,

32
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: and you could obviously argue there is no other form

33
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 1: of Jehotism, then you could also look at what's happened

34
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,919
Speaker 1: in the most in most recent iterations of this conflict

35
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:40,360
Speaker 1: and say we basically have one. We have defeated for now.

36
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 1: I'm not saying I won't be resurgent. Remember the Allies

37
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,920
Speaker 1: defeated Germany in World War One, and then there was

38
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 1: World War Two. We could see a resurgence of this.

39
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 1: It's not over in that sense, but I remember what

40
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: it was like. I remember being in the CIA and

41
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:58,919
Speaker 1: people talking about how we were going to be fighting

42
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 1: in Iraq for as long as the Lebanese Civil War

43
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 1: went on, which was fifteen years. We have been in Afghanistan,

44
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 1: although not in continuous fighting the same way as you've

45
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 1: seen in another conflicts. We've been in Afghanistan now for

46
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:20,400
Speaker 1: twenty years, basically almost nineteen years, and the country has

47
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:24,080
Speaker 1: learned some very painful lessons in this whole process. But

48
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 1: while we're all being instructed by the media to panic

49
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: over COVID, just remember that there were also many times

50
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 1: when they wanted us to panic even more than was

51
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 1: vaguely necessary, over the threat of jihadism. There were all

52
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 1: of the remember the color coding system, the creation of

53
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 1: the TSA, so many of these things that now we

54
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 1: look back on and say, what were we doing, The

55
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 1: creation of the National Counterterrorism Center, the Director of National

56
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 1: Intelligence Office, the DNI, Do we need any of that?

57
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 1: Did we really fix the problems of stovepiping of intelligence

58
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 1: between the various agencies and the lack of sharing with

59
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 1: the FBI, the CIA, and the other three letter and

60
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 1: assorted agencies of the federal government and the National security apparatus.

61
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:18,400
Speaker 1: Those are questions that no one can definitively answer, But

62
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 1: the good news is, and I think that we should

63
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,880
Speaker 1: spend some time on that. The good news is that

64
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 1: we are in a period here of relative calm when

65
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 1: it comes to Jehotism. After multiple wars, after innumerable covert

66
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:45,680
Speaker 1: operations and black ops insertions abroad, we have managed to

67
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 1: temporarily at least neutralize most of al Qaida in the

68
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 1: Islamic State. And President Trump does not get nearly enough

69
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 1: credit from this, and he won't. But the roll up

70
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,479
Speaker 1: of Isis, I mean, the the rapid collapse and the

71
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 1: taking of Rocca, that was something that we were told,

72
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,719
Speaker 1: even under the Obama administration, would be far more costly,

73
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:13,159
Speaker 1: far more difficult, because Obama wasn't somebody who was really

74
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 1: leading on any national security issue. He was always looking

75
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:22,480
Speaker 1: for consensus, and consensus when you're talking about battlefield tactics,

76
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 1: when you're talking about fighting against committed radicals willing to

77
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 1: lose their lives, is often just too slow or just wrong.

78
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:38,480
Speaker 1: Obama administration, you'll recall, was marked with many mass casualty

79
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 1: terrorist attacks in Europe and here in the United States,

80
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 1: we've seen far less of that. You think of the

81
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,039
Speaker 1: mass casualty attacks in the name of the Islamic State

82
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: San Bernardino attack Pulse Nightclub in Florida. There were the

83
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,479
Speaker 1: first year of the Obama presidency. People often forget this,

84
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 1: but there was ruk Abdulmatalub, the so called underwear bomber.

85
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 1: And while it did seem so ridiculous to every when

86
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,839
Speaker 1: this guy lit himself in effect on fire and almost

87
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:16,840
Speaker 1: blew himself away, including his most sensitive areas, he did

88
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 1: almost bring down that plane which would have killed over

89
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:23,039
Speaker 1: a hundred people over Detroit on Christmas Day in the

90
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 1: first year of the Obama presidency. We were just lucky

91
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 1: that he was unable to ignite that device. And then

92
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,279
Speaker 1: there was s Faisal Shazad in Times Square, of the

93
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 1: Times Square bomber, another time, when if he had just

94
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,559
Speaker 1: been a little bit more competent in his bomb building,

95
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,480
Speaker 1: he would have easily killed dozens, perhaps over one hundred

96
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,040
Speaker 1: people in Times Square on a beautiful day in New

97
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 1: York City, not far from when I was sitting as

98
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:51,000
Speaker 1: the bomb went off. We've had vehicle attacks, including here

99
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:54,440
Speaker 1: on the West side of Manhattan and Chelsea. We've had

100
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 1: attacks in cities across the country. It's hard to remember

101
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 1: all of them, but it has calmed down quite a bit.

102
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 1: It turned out that trying to appease radical Islam, that

103
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 1: going around the world bowing and apologizing for America was

104
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 1: not an effective national security strategy. That was not going

105
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:20,480
Speaker 1: to do it. And President Trump in office has been

106
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 1: a necessary corrective to that. What are the things that

107
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 1: I remember most from nine to eleven and those of

108
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 1: you who've been listening to me for years now, And

109
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 1: I'm very honored when I think about the fact that

110
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 1: there are so many of you across the country, in

111
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 1: all fifty states now who have spent at least a

112
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 1: portion of your day, five days a week with me

113
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 1: going on now seven years. What do I remember? Some

114
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 1: of you will know these anecdotes, But I was in

115
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: college on nine to eleven. It's actually going to Shakespeare class.

116
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,960
Speaker 1: Studying Shakespeare in college, as one does. I had been

117
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:08,080
Speaker 1: in three Arabic classes, I think, in advance of this,

118
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 1: because I was already interested in the Middle East. I

119
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 1: had managed to maneuver my way into an upper level

120
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:20,960
Speaker 1: generally a senior's only seminar on Arab Israeli conflict, and

121
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,000
Speaker 1: I just thought it would be an interesting area to

122
00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 1: specialize in. And then nine to eleven happened, and all

123
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 1: of a sudden, the recognition as we found out more

124
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 1: about what happened that day, that we were going to

125
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 1: go to war, and who knows for how long and

126
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 1: with how many different groups, perhaps even countries. I remember

127
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 1: going back to my dorm, going back to my dorm

128
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 1: and watching on TV and seeing the second plane hit,

129
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 1: because we were excused right away from class after the

130
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,320
Speaker 1: first plane hit. And I hope that I remember all

131
00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 1: this as it is with these kinds of traumatic events.

132
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 1: As you know, some times people can have timeline errors.

133
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 1: But I remember very clearly seeing as the second plane

134
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 1: hit and the recognition that now this was obviously an attack,

135
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:11,600
Speaker 1: This was no accident. When I first sat down, as

136
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 1: everyone else, I think or mostly believed, the initial impression

137
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 1: was that this was just a tragic accident. But then

138
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 1: we figured out very quickly that it was an insidious,

139
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 1: mass casualty attack. And I watched as the towers fell,

140
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 1: one after the other. I remember thinking how many people

141
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:38,439
Speaker 1: I might know in those buildings. The husband of my

142
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,199
Speaker 1: mother's sister, my uncle through marriage, working in one of

143
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 1: the towers. He was late to work that way, otherwise

144
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 1: late to work that day otherwise he'd be gone, and

145
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,680
Speaker 1: I remember recognizing and saying out loud, we are going

146
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,440
Speaker 1: to war. Changed the course of my life. Otherwise I

147
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:58,080
Speaker 1: likely would have been someone who went to work on

148
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 1: Wall Street or management, soulting or something, try to find

149
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,840
Speaker 1: my way to enough success and comfort that I could

150
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 1: get a decent house in the suburbs, find a nice wife,

151
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 1: and call it a day. Instead, I joined the CIA,

152
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 1: got assigned to the counter Terrorism Center, went to Iraq,

153
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 1: Northern Iraq when it was a particularly spicy area of

154
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 1: the country in two thousand and seven, went back to

155
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 1: Central Iraq in two thousand and eight, employed to Afghanistan

156
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 1: in two thousand and nine, and came home from that

157
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 1: and worked for the NYPD Intelligence Division. Came in right

158
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:37,840
Speaker 1: after the fight Naji Bulazazi attack, and then was assigned

159
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,839
Speaker 1: to the NYPD Task Force working the Faisal Shazad case,

160
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 1: the Times Square bomber, among other averted attacks that we

161
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:50,200
Speaker 1: worked on during my time there. So it obviously changed

162
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 1: the course of my life. But I was very lucky

163
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:54,319
Speaker 1: in that I didn't have any family members lost that

164
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 1: I know so many of you did. I was very

165
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,640
Speaker 1: lucky that I wasn't a fireman or a member of

166
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 1: the NYPD, or a flight attendant on one of those flights,

167
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 1: or a pilot or someone working in the Pentagon that day.

168
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:11,600
Speaker 1: What did we learn from nine to eleven as a country?

169
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:16,319
Speaker 1: One thing is that evil exists, and if it can

170
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:20,200
Speaker 1: catch you sleeping, it will you have to be ever

171
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 1: vigilant because there will be evil forces at work in

172
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:27,160
Speaker 1: this world, no matter how powerful, wealthy, successful we are

173
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 1: as a nation. There will be those ideologies, those beliefs,

174
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 1: those impulses from other human beings to tear us down

175
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,360
Speaker 1: and destroy us. I know it became something of a

176
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,520
Speaker 1: laugh line among the liberal left for a while that

177
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:44,839
Speaker 1: they hate us for our freedom, But the people that

178
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 1: drove planes into those buildings did in fact hate us

179
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:54,840
Speaker 1: for our freedom, and their comrades and colleagues today haven't

180
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 1: changed their ideological predispositions at all. They're absolutely in agreement

181
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,079
Speaker 1: with that that if they could destroy us as a society,

182
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,680
Speaker 1: they would. And then there are those within our own

183
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 1: country who you would think would have rallied to our side,

184
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:14,560
Speaker 1: you would think would understand the stakes and would stop

185
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 1: rooting against us because of their own narrow parochial interests

186
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:23,559
Speaker 1: or their desire to always be proven right. As domestic

187
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 1: radicals who want to see this country brought low and

188
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 1: then transformed. They still are very much here as well.

189
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 1: One of my strongest memories from nine to eleven was

190
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:38,679
Speaker 1: the gathering, the only all school gathering that I can

191
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,760
Speaker 1: remember having when I was at Amherst College, pretty left

192
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:46,320
Speaker 1: wing place in central Massachusetts in the Pioneer Valley. I

193
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:51,280
Speaker 1: remember a professor standing up before the whole student body

194
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 1: and saying, this is what happens when you make people angry,

195
00:12:55,679 --> 00:13:00,559
Speaker 1: you see to a certain kind of left wing intellectual,

196
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 1: to a certain kind of let's just say it, radical democrat, socialist,

197
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 1: Marxist America actually got what it deserved that day. There

198
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 1: were people who were saying that, then we remember this,

199
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:19,079
Speaker 1: this was a response to our foreign policy. There were

200
00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 1: academics who said this. There were journalists who believed this.

201
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,439
Speaker 1: Maybe they waited a while to write such things or

202
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:29,840
Speaker 1: say things out loud, but there was that belief. There

203
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:36,200
Speaker 1: was a flag burning on my campus within weeks of

204
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:41,680
Speaker 1: nine to eleven. Explicitly, these were students explicitly going forward

205
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: to say that we got what we deserved. So while

206
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 1: we can all talk about our unity and we should

207
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:52,920
Speaker 1: because the vast majority of Americans, yes, including our fellow

208
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 1: Americans who are Democrats, a vast majority recognize what the

209
00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,680
Speaker 1: gravity of the situation was and rallied to our flag

210
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 1: and to our country, and we should remember that. But

211
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 1: there was an element within our own borders that saw

212
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 1: what happened, that saw us attacked in this particularly dire

213
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:12,560
Speaker 1: and vulnerable moment, and thought, this is something that we

214
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 1: can work with, This will be advantageous for us. And

215
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:21,720
Speaker 1: you even see some elements of that still today. Don't

216
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:28,720
Speaker 1: ever forget there are enemies, foreign and domestic. That's one

217
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 1: of the lessons we should take from nine to eleven,

218
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 1: because neither of them have gone away as much progress

219
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:38,520
Speaker 1: as as we've made it, as many sacrifices as our military,

220
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 1: law enforcement and first responders have engaged in over the

221
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 1: last almost twenty years. You're in this is the Buck

222
00:14:49,000 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 1: Sex and Show podcast. Why in God's name is all

223
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:07,920
Speaker 1: Buildings Matter? Trending on social media right now? What? What

224
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 1: the heck are people thinking? What is wrong with people?

225
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 1: All buildings matter? They think that this is clever? Now,

226
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:22,400
Speaker 1: Oh okay, because BLM is similar in its gravity and

227
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:28,600
Speaker 1: seriousness to almost three thousand Americans being either incinerated or

228
00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 1: crushed to death in a terrorist attack on all of us,

229
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:35,960
Speaker 1: including black and brown Americans, including people who are black

230
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 1: and brown who weren't Americans who were visiting that day,

231
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 1: who were four nationals. There was an attack on all

232
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:49,120
Speaker 1: of us. But we can't even expect true unity in

233
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,760
Speaker 1: this country in a day like this because the BLM

234
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:57,000
Speaker 1: lunatics want to pretend that this is of similar gravity

235
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 1: and seriousness, that incidents like the Michael Brown shooting are

236
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 1: to be thought of at the same level, the same

237
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 1: categorization of seriousness as as the nine to eleven attack.

238
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:15,480
Speaker 1: BLM is an intellectually and morally unserious movement, you say,

239
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 1: you have to remember that people don't want to hear that,

240
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,720
Speaker 1: And of course anybody in the movement would go into

241
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 1: a fit of apoplexy. They would lose their minds if

242
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:28,440
Speaker 1: you said that to them. But it's true, it's true.

243
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 1: If they were serious, they wouldn't do these things. They

244
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 1: wouldn't say and support these things. The trend started because

245
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 1: a Black Lives Matter supporter wrote on Twitter nine to

246
00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 1: eleven is sad, but let's remember that all buildings matter,

247
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 1: and in response, the attention to tweet received, according to

248
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 1: Newsweek here. There was follow up to this anyway, So

249
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:57,680
Speaker 1: hashtag all Buildings Matter is now the number one trending

250
00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:01,160
Speaker 1: Twitter thing in the world because the babies of the

251
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:05,960
Speaker 1: BLM movement listen to us. We don't really have arguments,

252
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:07,920
Speaker 1: but if you don't listen, we'll scream in your face

253
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:12,560
Speaker 1: and we'll burn down your building. I've listened. When they

254
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 1: say that police are racist and killing black people regularly

255
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:21,680
Speaker 1: in large numbers, systematically without consequence, they're lying. So I've listened.

256
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 1: It's not true. What else am I supposed to listen

257
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:29,639
Speaker 1: to exactly? But you see, they use disrespect to what

258
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 1: is sacred to reasonable people to get attention for what

259
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:39,480
Speaker 1: is exaggerated in the minds of brainwashed people. Nine to

260
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:44,160
Speaker 1: eleven is a day that affected the entire country. It's

261
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 1: a day where the forces of evil killed almost three

262
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:49,040
Speaker 1: thousand of us and if they could have, would have

263
00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 1: killed three million of us in one day. Oh, but

264
00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:57,879
Speaker 1: the BLM activists want to compare it to eight people

265
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:03,240
Speaker 1: who are unarmed. Doesn't mean unthreatening shot eight black Americans.

266
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,720
Speaker 1: It's always the focus on black Americans were shot. You know,

267
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 1: there was a kid who had autism, who was shot recently,

268
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,639
Speaker 1: a white kid thirteen years old running his mother says

269
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 1: and shot by police, wasn't killed. No protests about that,

270
00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:22,040
Speaker 1: So I guess it doesn't matter as much to these activists. No,

271
00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,200
Speaker 1: of course not. It does not matter as much to them.

272
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,639
Speaker 1: But just remember, they're showing you the BLM activist, the

273
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:31,760
Speaker 1: BLM movement, the Democrat Party, the Biden voters, the left.

274
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 1: They're showing you who they are right now with this

275
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 1: All buildings matter, that's right, slapping America in the face

276
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:44,960
Speaker 1: on this most solemn of days. That's just what the

277
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:48,280
Speaker 1: left is all about. Thanks for listening to the buses

278
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 1: and show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the

279

Speaker 1: iHeart Radio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. Now,

280
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 1: let's talk policy as we think about the greatest threat

281
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 1: this country faces right now. Our single biggest threat as

282
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:10,200
Speaker 1: a nation right now is internal political division that can

283
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 1: spiral out of control. That can pull us apart. It

284
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 1: can undermine any of our institutions, a phrase the Libs

285
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:20,640
Speaker 1: love to use about Trump, as they are constantly undermining institutions.

286
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:26,320
Speaker 1: It can pull apart our law enforcement, pull apart our elections,

287
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:29,879
Speaker 1: It can make us think that the entire system is

288
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 1: corrupt in ways that are unfixable. If you're wondering what's

289
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:38,600
Speaker 1: our biggest external enemy, until recently, I would have said

290
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 1: it was Jehotism radical Islam as an ideology meant to

291
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:53,560
Speaker 1: confront Western American Judeo Christian civilization. Right. That's and it

292
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:56,119
Speaker 1: was existential in so far as if they could have

293
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:59,359
Speaker 1: wiped us out, they would have, but they couldn't. And

294
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:03,920
Speaker 1: now they've lost so many fighters and so many battles,

295
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:05,960
Speaker 1: and spend so many and use so much of their resources.

296
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,919
Speaker 1: We always focus on the drain from America, which of

297
00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 1: course we should of blood and treasure into these conflicts.

298
00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:15,920
Speaker 1: But remember that it's not an endless flow of committed

299
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 1: fighters on the other side either, especially as we don't

300
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:21,679
Speaker 1: get involved in places where we don't need to be.

301
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:26,240
Speaker 1: Let local conflicts remain local outside of our own borders

302
00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:29,640
Speaker 1: to the extent that we can. It's a lesson we've learned. Look,

303
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 1: I was somebody who thought the Bush administration, with Rumsfeld

304
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:38,120
Speaker 1: and Cheney and these all these very powerful neo Khon

305
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:42,280
Speaker 1: think tanks in DC and the Pentagon policy planners like

306
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:47,199
Speaker 1: Wolfowitz or at dinner with Wolfowitz once a lunch. Actually

307
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 1: deeply unimpressive guy. But anyway, he wouldn't remember. I would

308
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:53,520
Speaker 1: because it's out there thinking this is the guy who's

309
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,640
Speaker 1: the architect of all this stuff, and it was when

310
00:20:56,680 --> 00:21:02,400
Speaker 1: he was still Wolfowitz. But we've learned lessons from those mistakes,

311
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:04,920
Speaker 1: I think, and we understand that it is there's nothing

312
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:10,680
Speaker 1: conservative about sending our own people to go rebuild societies

313
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 1: for other people who are not Americans, and not even

314
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:18,680
Speaker 1: necessarily in allied countries. But if you're wondering what's the

315
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 1: biggest threat we face now is a country external to

316
00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:25,119
Speaker 1: this nation, it would be China. And the President knows this.

317
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 1: The President is right about this, he has been all along,

318
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 1: and I think everyone's waking up to it. When I've

319
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:35,680
Speaker 1: visited China a year ago, a little over a year

320
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 1: ago now, I remember thinking, this is not a place

321
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 1: that is looking to do its own thing and just

322
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,320
Speaker 1: be prosperous and be left alone. This this is a

323
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 1: massive country, over a billion people, that is ruled with

324
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 1: an iron fist, that has no real concept or care

325
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,439
Speaker 1: for human rights, I mean, from the government level, for

326
00:21:56,600 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 1: human rights, individual dignity, rule of law, and will enforce

327
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 1: its enforce its will upon people, and a lot of

328
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 1: Chinese nationals will go along with all of this because glory,

329
00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:13,160
Speaker 1: the national pursuit of glory, can be a very powerful elixir.

330
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:19,359
Speaker 1: And even people who are just working, even just laborers,

331
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:22,920
Speaker 1: people doing the most mundane jobs, if they believe that

332
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:28,439
Speaker 1: their membership, if you will, in a nationality, in a

333
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 1: nation state family makes them more powerful, makes them part

334
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 1: of something important. There's a lot, there's a lot that

335
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,240
Speaker 1: that ruling body that that government can do, can get

336
00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 1: away with. So China is our biggest opponent economically, and

337
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:47,879
Speaker 1: give it time. It will also be militarily. I'm certainly

338
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:50,159
Speaker 1: hoping that we never go head to head in a

339
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:54,280
Speaker 1: direct conflict with China. That would be it would be

340
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,600
Speaker 1: catastrophic in ways that it's hard to even imagine. I mean,

341
00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,879
Speaker 1: it would the casualty rates. I I've seen some of

342
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:04,840
Speaker 1: the war gaming on this and it's horrible. But it

343
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:06,919
Speaker 1: might be more along the lines of the fight for

344
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:12,359
Speaker 1: influence first on the Chinese national periphery. So the various

345
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 1: countries that it bumps up bumps up against right now, India, Russia,

346
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:23,640
Speaker 1: the literal states, you know, the island island nations, and

347
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:28,000
Speaker 1: countries that have island chains as a major part of

348
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 1: their geography Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, the Philippines, Japan, South Korea.

349
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,280
Speaker 1: How does China interact with all of them? And is

350
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,720
Speaker 1: it able to flip them to China's side in what

351
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,639
Speaker 1: is going to become a great power struggle along the

352
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:46,480
Speaker 1: lines of what we saw between the US and the

353
00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:49,600
Speaker 1: Soviet Union. That's what we're heading for now. Anyone who

354
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 1: would study history would see this coming. And we know

355
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:54,879
Speaker 1: that this is the trajectory of world So China is

356
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 1: the biggest external threat? Can we all agree on that?

357
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:03,360
Speaker 1: I mean, it's nine to eleven. We should remember ignoring

358
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:07,680
Speaker 1: a growing threat can have catastrophic consequences, as it did

359
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:12,320
Speaker 1: on that day. So wouldn't it be in our interest

360
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,679
Speaker 1: as a nation to understand now to turn and face

361
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,560
Speaker 1: the likeliest place We don't always know, We're not always right, obviously,

362
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:26,719
Speaker 1: but the likeliest place where a major strategic level threat

363
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:32,920
Speaker 1: to this country comes from. Anyone who knows foreign policy,

364
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:37,199
Speaker 1: anything about the military, national security, international relations, knows that

365
00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:41,879
Speaker 1: it's got to be China, right apparently not? What do

366
00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:47,439
Speaker 1: you think the Libs believe is the biggest nation state

367
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,680
Speaker 1: threat we face or nation state level threat? What what

368
00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:55,560
Speaker 1: could end us as a society if we don't rise

369
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:59,240
Speaker 1: to the challenge. Here's the former head of the Department

370
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:03,359
Speaker 1: of Homeland Secure already under the Obama administration, Jay Johnson,

371
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 1: with an answer. Play three, Joe, I have to say,

372
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:08,360
Speaker 1: the number one threat to our nation and to our

373
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:11,919
Speaker 1: world is global warming. And it's a threat as we

374
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,840
Speaker 1: see in California right now. And it's a threat because

375
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 1: we are failing to address it. As Barack Obama used

376
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:22,240
Speaker 1: to say, it is a slow motion emergency. And unfortunately,

377
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:25,080
Speaker 1: our political leaders always deal with the thing that is

378
00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 1: on the top of their inbox. This has been a

379
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 1: crisis for some time now that we are failing to address,

380
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 1: and we're seeing the evidence of it more and more

381
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 1: year after year. Global warming the biggest threat we face.

382
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:43,400
Speaker 1: You see the way they're talking about these wildfires in Oregon.

383
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:47,560
Speaker 1: In California, actually just had someone a listener reach out

384
00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:50,479
Speaker 1: and say that she's in a place where they might

385
00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:53,679
Speaker 1: have to be evacuated because of the wildfires. I know

386
00:25:53,680 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 1: it's very serious. Whether it's wildfires, hurricanes, tornadoes, it's always

387
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,760
Speaker 1: climate change or, as Jay Johnson says, global warming, but

388
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 1: I thought we didn't call it that anymore? Can we?

389
00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 1: Can we just be clear on what the proper name

390
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 1: is for this scientific phenomenon that they say is the

391
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 1: greatest national security threat. The biggest threat we face climate

392
00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:18,440
Speaker 1: change CO two in the air. You're breathing out CO

393
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:22,880
Speaker 1: two right now. The biggest threat we face as a country,

394
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:27,159
Speaker 1: as a species is too much of that in the

395
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:31,359
Speaker 1: air and the atmosphere. We live in a time of

396
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:37,240
Speaker 1: mass media combined with mass hysteria, friends, and the results

397
00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:42,320
Speaker 1: are not good. Doesn't strike me as plausible that somebody

398
00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 1: who has not been pressured brainwashed over time could really

399
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 1: think that the biggest threat that we face is climate change.

400
00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:58,479
Speaker 1: There's a lot of other stuff out there. We've got

401
00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:02,399
Speaker 1: countries with nuclear weapons. We've got nation states that we're

402
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:07,159
Speaker 1: supposed to liberalize as they became enormously powerful and populous.

403
00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:15,439
Speaker 1: It's not happening. We have a resurgence of Marxism in

404
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:17,960
Speaker 1: our own country as well as in some countries abroad,

405
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 1: and we're told the biggest and we're in the middle

406
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:25,879
Speaker 1: of a pandemic, which if you go back in this show,

407
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:28,879
Speaker 1: people asked I remembers last summer I was almost exactly

408
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 1: a year ago, said somebody asked Buck, what really worries you?

409
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 1: And I said, pandemic disease. I mean that's true. You

410
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:37,600
Speaker 1: can go back and check the transcript. I said it

411
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:39,879
Speaker 1: because it was I knew I'd seen the modeling that

412
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:41,600
Speaker 1: we would eventually be in a place where we are

413
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:44,280
Speaker 1: right now. In fact, we could have been through something

414
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:48,720
Speaker 1: much much worse. But now they tell us that with

415
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:51,240
Speaker 1: all the things that we face, with all the challenges

416
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:57,560
Speaker 1: we see climate change, that's right. What's really going to

417
00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:01,480
Speaker 1: ruin us is if you don't turn off your air

418
00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:05,359
Speaker 1: conditioners and let your house get to be about eighty

419
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:08,680
Speaker 1: degrees during a heat wave. What's really going to ruin

420
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:10,920
Speaker 1: us is if you don't bicycle enough, if you drive

421
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 1: a car that's not an electric car, if you think

422
00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 1: that you should have enough power and not pay five

423
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 1: times the current rate for it to run your appliances

424
00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 1: in your TV. And why are they opposed to nuclear

425
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:27,320
Speaker 1: energy because nuclear energy is the solution, the technological solution

426
00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:29,720
Speaker 1: that we already have to all of this. But then

427
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:35,080
Speaker 1: that makes their whole windmills and solar power obsession obsolete.

428
00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:38,480
Speaker 1: So it's not about science, it's about belief and it's

429
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 1: about control. You see it with climate change, you also

430
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:46,120
Speaker 1: see it with COVID nineteen. So let's just all remember

431
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:49,280
Speaker 1: this here we are in nine to eleven. We remember

432
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:51,280
Speaker 1: those who lost their lives, We remember the dead, We

433
00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:53,760
Speaker 1: remember the bravery of men and women that day. And

434
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:59,000
Speaker 1: then we remember the millions of Americans who took up

435
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 1: arms and joined our military, went overseas, served in this

436
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,920
Speaker 1: war on terror. And while the strategy wasn't always perfect,

437
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 1: our military acquitted itself with unbelievable bravery, dignity, and success.

438
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 1: And we took out so many of the worst psychopathic

439
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:28,479
Speaker 1: scum on the planet in Iraq, Afghanistan and other countries

440
00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:32,080
Speaker 1: in the region. And after all of that, we turn

441
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 1: around now and we are in what will soon again

442
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:38,840
Speaker 1: be as we get past this disease Apox Americana pax

443
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:45,960
Speaker 1: not pox, and the liberals want to focus on CO

444
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 1: two in the air Massisteria. Friends, you're in the Freedom Hunt.

445
00:29:54,120 --> 00:30:01,080
Speaker 1: This is the Buck Sex and Show podcast. How desperate

446
00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 1: are the Democrats right now to defeat Donald Trump? But

447
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:09,200
Speaker 1: what are they willing to do? I can't give you

448
00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 1: a real I can't give you a real answer to

449
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:18,240
Speaker 1: the question I don't think anyone can, because there's still

450
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,800
Speaker 1: so many weeks left, and whatever I think would be

451
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 1: the outer limit of their insanity, I'm sure they're going

452
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:30,200
Speaker 1: to exceed those outer limits. But one storyline, one claim

453
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:34,520
Speaker 1: that you'll continue to hear, is not that President Trump

454
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:40,479
Speaker 1: was not great on COVID or miss some things on COVID.

455
00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:44,160
Speaker 1: They have gone so far beyond that, which I think

456
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:46,840
Speaker 1: is also wrong. But they've gone so far beyond that

457
00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:51,520
Speaker 1: that they will now openly claim that President Trump is

458
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:59,160
Speaker 1: directly responsible for the almost two hundred thousand deaths from

459
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:08,400
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen. This is absolutely nuts. Here is Chuck Schumer

460
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,640
Speaker 1: among the most odious members of the United States Congress,

461
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:15,560
Speaker 1: Play six. There are thousands of my fellow New Yorkers

462
00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:18,600
Speaker 1: who are dead right now, and it can be directly

463
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:24,240
Speaker 1: attributed to the President's lack of action lying about this crisis,

464
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:27,840
Speaker 1: no question about it. That's why we don't have testing,

465
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:30,320
Speaker 1: That's why where we are not on top of this

466
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 1: because he swept it under the rug. On January twenty

467
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,760
Speaker 1: sixth I called for the President to make it a

468
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:40,200
Speaker 1: national emergency. January twenty six he did nothing for a month.

469
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,840
Speaker 1: What was he supposed to do. What was he supposed

470
00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 1: to do? And they never answered this question. It's never

471
00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:49,360
Speaker 1: clear he was going to lock down the country before

472
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 1: anyone had died here, that was the plan. It's easy

473
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:54,920
Speaker 1: to say, now, well, yeah, we should have done that,

474
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:57,720
Speaker 1: but would people have gone along with it? Would the

475
00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:00,440
Speaker 1: public have listened that. They don't have the res sources

476
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:03,800
Speaker 1: to enforce all this stuff. I mean they even here

477
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 1: in New York, which has turned into a little tyranny

478
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:11,040
Speaker 1: of stupidity because of Cuomo and de Blasio. Even here

479
00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,520
Speaker 1: in New York City, they can't tell if you're quarantining,

480
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,240
Speaker 1: or where you're going or what. They have no idea,

481
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 1: And they've got a lot of resources here, a lot

482
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:22,719
Speaker 1: of a lot of government bureaucrats to order around, huge

483
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 1: police force which should not be involved in, you know,

484
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 1: mask enforcement or social distancing enforcement, but that's what they

485
00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,640
Speaker 1: like to do. They like to order them to be

486
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 1: their own little social distancing stazi Elin Lake tweeted out today,

487
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:39,560
Speaker 1: six hundred and seventy five thousand Americans were killed during

488
00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:42,840
Speaker 1: the Spanish flu pandemic. Some of those deaths may have

489
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,760
Speaker 1: been avoided if Woodrow Wilson bothered to say anything about it.

490
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:49,760
Speaker 1: But no one serious says President Wilson killed six hundred

491
00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:54,440
Speaker 1: and seventy five thousand Americans because it's moronic. Exactly. President

492
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:57,640
Speaker 1: Trump hasn't killed anybody. There's no order you can point

493
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:01,440
Speaker 1: to that shows that President Trump put people in. They said,

494
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:04,680
Speaker 1: we don't have enough ventilators. President Trump, use a Defense

495
00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:08,280
Speaker 1: Production Act. Got enough ventilators, We don't have enough PPE.

496
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:11,680
Speaker 1: Defense Production Act. Got everybody the PPE they need. We

497
00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 1: don't have enough hospital beds. Send a hospital ship up

498
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:17,200
Speaker 1: here to New York. Saw it float by on the

499
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:22,480
Speaker 1: Hudson River. Set up hospital tents in Central Park, turned

500
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:26,680
Speaker 1: the Javits Convention Center into a multi thousand bed facility.

501
00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:28,640
Speaker 1: Didn't even really use any of this stuff because they

502
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,800
Speaker 1: didn't need all these beds. But where was Trump asleep

503
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:34,600
Speaker 1: at the whale? Where was the falling down on the job. Oh,

504
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:38,520
Speaker 1: because he said, they're always so upset, fixated. They'll find

505
00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:41,720
Speaker 1: some phrase, something that he said at some point in

506
00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:45,160
Speaker 1: time that isn't even tied to any action, and say,

507
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:49,680
Speaker 1: see he said that thing, and that wasn't that wasn't accurate,

508
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:52,240
Speaker 1: and so everything else that happened after that is his fault.

509
00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 1: These people are absolutely nuts. Don't say anything. Joe Biden

510
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 1: course has to read from the script here. And I

511
00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:06,280
Speaker 1: don't really mean that as I mean that as a

512
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,319
Speaker 1: term of art. I mean he's reading from scripts a

513
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:11,239
Speaker 1: lot here. He is on how it's all the presidents fault.

514
00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:14,879
Speaker 1: Played twenty four on the day that we hit one

515
00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:18,880
Speaker 1: hundred and ninety thousand dead in the United States because

516
00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:21,959
Speaker 1: of COVID nineteen. We just learned from the Washington Post

517
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:25,320
Speaker 1: columnist Bob Woodward that the President of the United States

518
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:29,280
Speaker 1: has admitted on tape in February he knew about COVID

519
00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:33,080
Speaker 1: nineteen that had passed through the air. He knew how

520
00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:35,600
Speaker 1: deadly it was. It was much more deadly than the flu.

521
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:40,959
Speaker 1: He knew and purposely played it down. Worse, he lied

522
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:44,720
Speaker 1: to the American people. He knowingly and willingly lied about

523
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:48,239
Speaker 1: the threaded post of the country for months. He had

524
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:51,279
Speaker 1: the information, he knew how dangerous it was. Now while

525
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:54,239
Speaker 1: there's deadly disease ripped through our nation, he failed to

526
00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,960
Speaker 1: do his job on purpose. It was a life and

527
00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:01,840
Speaker 1: death betrayal of the American people. Hel to do his

528
00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:07,480
Speaker 1: job on purpose. Think about how stupid that is as

529
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:11,320
Speaker 1: a claim. Why would he fail to do his job

530
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:15,840
Speaker 1: on purpose. Joe Biden, You moron, what benefit would the

531
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:18,520
Speaker 1: president have from doing? Just put aside whether that's even

532
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:25,680
Speaker 1: a true claim. They will say anything, it doesn't matter, no, lie,

533
00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:29,760
Speaker 1: Thanks for listening to the buses and show podcasts. Remember

534
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:33,600
Speaker 1: to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever

535
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:37,400
Speaker 1: you get your podcasts. I really think that journals are

536
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:40,320
Speaker 1: the worst people in America. I mean as a profession.

537
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:44,360
Speaker 1: I mean there are worse individual human beings. Yes, you know,

538
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:49,719
Speaker 1: mass murderers, child molesters are worse than your average journalists.

539
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:53,479
Speaker 1: But as a profession, I think journalists are the worst

540
00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:56,720
Speaker 1: people in America right now. For a job that's technically legal,

541
00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:02,280
Speaker 1: they do the most damage. They're the least useful. Here's

542
00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 1: an example. You're like, Buck, why why would you think

543
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:08,640
Speaker 1: that John Harwood, who's this guy? Worked for? Oh? CNN?

544
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:14,880
Speaker 1: Of course, the pandemic is now every week taking twice

545
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:18,840
Speaker 1: as many American lives as we're lost on nine eleven.

546
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:25,560
Speaker 1: Uh okay, well what is what is he trying to

547
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:29,680
Speaker 1: tell us? Yeah, there there are people dying from this,

548
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:33,120
Speaker 1: this disease that's out there, this pandemic that's real. What

549
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:35,080
Speaker 1: what What does the comparison with nine to eleven tell us?

550
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:41,800
Speaker 1: Every year more people die from you know, lung cancer

551
00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 1: than have died in you know the nine to eleven

552
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:51,759
Speaker 1: times ten. Well, what does that tell us? Nothing? It's

553
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:54,319
Speaker 1: it's irrelevant, But it's all meant to see, it's meant

554
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:59,400
Speaker 1: to conflate in people's minds. Nine to eleven asleep at

555
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:02,800
Speaker 1: the wee will hit with a mass casualty attack. Gross

556
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:06,600
Speaker 1: negligence Bush administration. Remember, Bush ended up getting reelected after

557
00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:12,880
Speaker 1: that Bush administration and Trump hit by the pandemic. Didn't

558
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 1: do didn't do enough? What was he supposed to do?

559
00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:24,920
Speaker 1: What was he supposed to do? They never have an

560
00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:29,239
Speaker 1: answer for this. Oh he lied, He lied, That's all

561
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:34,200
Speaker 1: we ever hear what he listened to fouch. The fouch

562
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:36,640
Speaker 1: said jump, He said how high? The fouch said, I

563
00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:39,040
Speaker 1: want this? He gave him this? What what was he

564
00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:43,759
Speaker 1: supposed to do? He allowed the States to set, you know,

565
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:46,680
Speaker 1: to set their actual reopen timelines, gave them all of

566
00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:49,440
Speaker 1: the equipment that he that they could have. We are

567
00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:53,759
Speaker 1: on track for the fastest ever vaccine ever under these

568
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:57,759
Speaker 1: kinds of circumstances because of operation warp speed what's the

569
00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:03,120
Speaker 1: president gonna do. He's not responsible for COVID nineteen. Okay,

570
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:06,600
Speaker 1: this is a once in a century both Some people say,

571
00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:09,840
Speaker 1: actually the flew of nineteen sixty eight to nineteen seventy

572
00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:13,840
Speaker 1: was similar to this, but this is a very rare event.

573
00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:17,520
Speaker 1: And to put it at the president's feet without giving

574
00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:21,600
Speaker 1: any specifics, yeah, are there things? Why do I criticize

575
00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:25,799
Speaker 1: Cuomo the governor of New York so much? But I say, well,

576
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:29,680
Speaker 1: you can't put on a Trump's feet because Cuomo not

577
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:33,239
Speaker 1: only has locked the city down much longer than he

578
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:35,440
Speaker 1: said he would based on the numbers they put forward.

579
00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,080
Speaker 1: You know, they said, you get to this and we'll

580
00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 1: let you have your lives back. And we got to

581
00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:42,920
Speaker 1: that level of low infection, we got to that control

582
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:46,000
Speaker 1: of disease. They said, yeah, now, still not giving you

583
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:47,840
Speaker 1: your lives back, still going to tell you what you

584
00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:51,239
Speaker 1: can do because we say so. But that's not even

585
00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:53,080
Speaker 1: the worst thing, as we know, the worst thing that

586
00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:57,919
Speaker 1: Cuomo did was making a decision because he was so

587
00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:03,880
Speaker 1: panicked and so you know, hyperventilating if you will, about

588
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:08,520
Speaker 1: the lack of hospital beds that anyone with COVID who

589
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:10,560
Speaker 1: is a senior from a nursing home in a hospital

590
00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:14,880
Speaker 1: if they could be discharged, even if they had the disease,

591
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:19,280
Speaker 1: still got sent back into nursing homes. That is a decision.

592
00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:23,120
Speaker 1: That is cause and effect. You send COVID positive people

593
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:26,840
Speaker 1: back into nursing homes. People in the nursing home, because

594
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:29,840
Speaker 1: they're the highest risk for death from this, are going

595
00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:33,840
Speaker 1: to die. That is what happened. That's a very clear

596
00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:37,359
Speaker 1: cause and effect. I'm not sitting here throwing out some alligay, Oh,

597
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:39,960
Speaker 1: we can't really know who. No, no, no, that's why

598
00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:43,319
Speaker 1: Cuomo is now blocking doing everything in Canada block an

599
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:47,120
Speaker 1: actual investigation into this. Someone on the left, if they're

600
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,239
Speaker 1: going to continue to say that Trump is responsible for

601
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:52,279
Speaker 1: two hundred thousand people dying, someone on the left needs

602
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:58,000
Speaker 1: to tell me what was he supposed to do? What

603
00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:02,440
Speaker 1: was going to be the different thing that he was

604
00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:07,080
Speaker 1: going to do. And I never hear this. He said

605
00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:09,600
Speaker 1: it was gonna go away. We've already talked about he

606
00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:13,279
Speaker 1: was trying to keep people calm. If we're gonna be

607
00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:16,120
Speaker 1: so literal, it is gonna go away. He didn't say when,

608
00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:22,120
Speaker 1: but he was trying to keep people calm. What was

609
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:24,359
Speaker 1: he you know, he listened. They kept saying, he doesn't

610
00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:27,920
Speaker 1: listen to the experts. Burks and Foucci. Burks and Fauci

611
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:31,880
Speaker 1: have been essentially the most powerful policy officials in the

612
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:34,560
Speaker 1: United States for the last seven months. And I think

613
00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:38,439
Speaker 1: that's bad. I don't think we should have ceded all

614
00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:43,879
Speaker 1: of that to those two. But that's what happened. That's

615
00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:50,319
Speaker 1: what happened, Burks and Fauci running the United States pretty much.

616
00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 1: And now what do they say, Well, now they claimed

617
00:40:56,120 --> 00:41:00,480
Speaker 1: that the president himself is responsible for all of these deaths.

618
00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:05,680
Speaker 1: The president himself is the reason that people have been

619
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:11,320
Speaker 1: dying from this. Oh and the other Cuomo bro Cuomo

620
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:17,520
Speaker 1: to wait Lufta over at CNN is now goading Trump's

621
00:41:17,520 --> 00:41:20,919
Speaker 1: base over this because he lies and we don't even care,

622
00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:22,759
Speaker 1: We're too dumb to know or whatever it is. I mean,

623
00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:26,320
Speaker 1: CNS full of morons play nine. He wants people weak,

624
00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:30,280
Speaker 1: he wants them weak and scared. And what hurts most

625
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:34,200
Speaker 1: in this tape and him telling his own people not

626
00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:36,719
Speaker 1: to wear masks wine he knew he was exposing them

627
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:40,200
Speaker 1: to danger, is that he's humiliated his own base, These

628
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:43,040
Speaker 1: people who are right to feel disaffected and frustrated and

629
00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:46,080
Speaker 1: so angry at the political process and the institutions that

630
00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:49,279
Speaker 1: they went with someone as much of a renegade at

631
00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:52,839
Speaker 1: best as Trump early on, and he's humiliated them with

632
00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:56,640
Speaker 1: how he uses the office. That's rough. Second, he's still

633
00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:59,040
Speaker 1: doing it. He did Michigan tonight. He told them they're

634
00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:01,440
Speaker 1: rounding the core or arounding the turn or whatever. He

635
00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:05,360
Speaker 1: mangled the curve is going like this cases in Michigan,

636
00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:08,800
Speaker 1: and he had another crowd where they weren't wearing masks

637
00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:11,360
Speaker 1: and masks are optional, and he didn't tell them about

638
00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:16,000
Speaker 1: masks either. He's still doing it, just blather what notice

639
00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:20,359
Speaker 1: Cuomo here. He's so used to talking and idiot libs thinking,

640
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:23,719
Speaker 1: oh he's he sounds like it's Cuomo. Sounds like what

641
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:26,680
Speaker 1: a stupid person thinks. A smart person sounds like, oh,

642
00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:28,719
Speaker 1: he's talking. There are awards coming out. He starts out,

643
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:31,960
Speaker 1: Trump wants people scared. That was the beginning of that

644
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:35,560
Speaker 1: sound by Trump wants people scared. And then he gives

645
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:38,040
Speaker 1: us this whole explanation of how the base is humiliated. No,

646
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:43,719
Speaker 1: we're not, I know, Trump supporters. He does not not humiliated,

647
00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:47,759
Speaker 1: not at all, not even a little bit. And then

648
00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:51,040
Speaker 1: goes on to say that he's telling them don't worry.

649
00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:53,000
Speaker 1: We're bending. So does he want them scared or is

650
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:56,480
Speaker 1: he telling them don't worry? It doesn't matter. Just I

651
00:42:56,600 --> 00:43:00,680
Speaker 1: hate Trump, Orange man bad. That's it. That's actually what

652
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:03,799
Speaker 1: the analysis is, with a lot of words thrown in

653
00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:05,320
Speaker 1: there to make it sound like there is a thought

654
00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:10,160
Speaker 1: process behind any of this. It's the equivalent. The liberal

655
00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:14,160
Speaker 1: critique of Trump is like watching a baby in a

656
00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:18,000
Speaker 1: high chair throw its toys on the ground, spit up

657
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:20,719
Speaker 1: its peas, and start crying all the time. That's the

658
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:23,640
Speaker 1: intellectual depth you get from them about the president and

659
00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:27,439
Speaker 1: why he's so bad. There are real things they could

660
00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:30,279
Speaker 1: criticize Trump on, and I know some of you don't

661
00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:32,080
Speaker 1: even like me to mention. It's almost like I'm giving

662
00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:34,200
Speaker 1: me a secret. We have not seen a wall finished.

663
00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:35,960
Speaker 1: We've gotten some of the wall, fine. We have not

664
00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:39,360
Speaker 1: seen a healthcare reform get past that is free market

665
00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:42,120
Speaker 1: or more free market based as we were promised. Right.

666
00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:44,759
Speaker 1: We have not ended the war in Afghanistan Iraq. I

667
00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:48,320
Speaker 1: know he's trying, but these are look. Reality is reality.

668
00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:50,880
Speaker 1: These are things that have not happened that we're promised.

669
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:55,560
Speaker 1: And you know, you can say, well, he's trying, he's

670
00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:58,279
Speaker 1: gonna get there, But those are legitimate grounds of at

671
00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:01,920
Speaker 1: least critique and debate. But it's never that it's Trump's

672
00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:05,759
Speaker 1: a trader. Trump killed two hundred thousand people. These people

673
00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:09,600
Speaker 1: are out of their minds. You know, I wasn't running

674
00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:12,600
Speaker 1: around pretending that Obama was hiding under people's beds and

675
00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:15,560
Speaker 1: you know, stealing their children in the middle of the night,

676
00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:18,319
Speaker 1: as like he's some kind of monster out of a

677
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:20,400
Speaker 1: movie or something. Look at what they do with Trump.

678
00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:24,880
Speaker 1: It's insane. Now, a lot of you might think, hold on,

679
00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:28,919
Speaker 1: it's maybe it's useful to our side that their criticisms

680
00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:36,680
Speaker 1: are so just maniacal. But what you're also seeing now

681
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:40,200
Speaker 1: with BLM and Antifa and the way the left has

682
00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:43,680
Speaker 1: taken to the streets is that they believe this stuff.

683
00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:46,759
Speaker 1: Though this isn't just rhetoric for them. They actually think

684
00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:48,960
Speaker 1: that he's a fascist. They think that they're fighting against

685
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:52,040
Speaker 1: the dissolution of America. And then when you ask what

686
00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:56,120
Speaker 1: has Trump done that is fascistic, where is the fascistic

687
00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:59,320
Speaker 1: impulse of Donald Trump? In fact, most of the fights

688
00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:02,200
Speaker 1: that he's had with the left have been over letting

689
00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:05,640
Speaker 1: people have more choice, more freedom, and more legal protection

690
00:45:05,680 --> 00:45:11,440
Speaker 1: as individuals, you know, constitutional rights, Second Amendment rights. Look

691
00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:16,680
Speaker 1: at where is they talk about the kids kids in cages,

692
00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:20,319
Speaker 1: which was a completenessrepresentation. That was a scam. By the way,

693
00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:24,640
Speaker 1: I know this issue very well traveled the border multiple times.

694
00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:27,399
Speaker 1: The whole kids in cageous thing with Trump. There were

695
00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:31,440
Speaker 1: people who were showing up, the overwhelming majority of them

696
00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:35,680
Speaker 1: not intending to actually go through the asylum process fully,

697
00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:39,080
Speaker 1: but they were using the loophole of claiming a fake

698
00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:44,200
Speaker 1: asylum after illegally crossing not legally illegally crossing the border,

699
00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:46,720
Speaker 1: to overwhelm the system to be released in the United

700
00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:50,520
Speaker 1: States Interior. It was an illegal immigration scam, and because

701
00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:52,520
Speaker 1: we hadn't been set up for this before, there were

702
00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:56,680
Speaker 1: some logistical facility shortcomings because it's supposed to be for

703
00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:59,680
Speaker 1: individual males who are crossing the border, not women with

704
00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:02,600
Speaker 1: their three kids who were skipping the immigration line, which

705
00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:07,400
Speaker 1: is what was happening full stop, and the media was

706
00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:10,200
Speaker 1: lying to you about this. Oh, they're fleeing MS thirteen violence.

707
00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:13,799
Speaker 1: I guess you could say anybody at Honduras is fleeing

708
00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:16,279
Speaker 1: MS thirteen violence. Of a lot of it there, right,

709
00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:18,839
Speaker 1: But that's not that doesn't qualify you for because you've

710
00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:21,320
Speaker 1: come from a country that's in a crappy situation doesn't

711
00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:26,400
Speaker 1: necessarily mean you actually get asylum. What was the fascistic

712
00:46:26,600 --> 00:46:28,360
Speaker 1: going back to this, what's the fascistic thing that Trump

713
00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:33,120
Speaker 1: has done? They don't they don't have an answer. But

714
00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:37,160
Speaker 1: if you bring that up, they say, horrible things. Horrible things.

715
00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:41,399
Speaker 1: Do you and what are we all supposed to take

716
00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:43,719
Speaker 1: from this? You know what sounds a bit fascistic to me.

717
00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:51,319
Speaker 1: Politicians mandating that you are physically uncomfortable and that you

718
00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:55,080
Speaker 1: can be the target of ridicule, of assault, even of

719
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:58,919
Speaker 1: action by the state, you know, arrest, perhaps just give

720
00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:04,640
Speaker 1: it time for not walking around with a piece of

721
00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:13,240
Speaker 1: cloth over your mouth. Biden thinks that that's funny. Played twelve.

722
00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:16,160
Speaker 1: I have relatives all over the country and all over

723
00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:18,759
Speaker 1: the political spectrum. How do you make the argument to

724
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:22,120
Speaker 1: a relative I have in Texas who says, yeah, this

725
00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:25,240
Speaker 1: virus is horrible, but it's not Trump's fault. It's China's fault.

726
00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:29,120
Speaker 1: Let's assume we'll take both your both at rogues points

727
00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:34,360
Speaker 1: it China's fault. There's China's fault. Why did Trump praise China?

728
00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:38,959
Speaker 1: Why did he say how transparent, how transparent, she's ain't

729
00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:40,880
Speaker 1: paying the Chinese are going to be Why did he

730
00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:43,279
Speaker 1: insist of the forty four people we had there, and

731
00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:45,480
Speaker 1: while I and others who assisting that they go in

732
00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:48,520
Speaker 1: and have access to see really what is happening to

733
00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:51,040
Speaker 1: know the detail? Why did he not insist on that?

734
00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:54,600
Speaker 1: And the virus is not his fault, but the death

735
00:47:54,640 --> 00:47:58,160
Speaker 1: star his fault because he could have done something about it. Jake,

736
00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:01,040
Speaker 1: I'd say to your uncle, he could have done something

737
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:03,520
Speaker 1: about it, but he said nothing. He didn't talk, and

738
00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:06,400
Speaker 1: he said, there's no need for social distancing. Don't bother

739
00:48:06,440 --> 00:48:09,400
Speaker 1: wearing masks. He actually went so far as to suggest

740
00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:12,440
Speaker 1: that it was a violation of American freedom to maintain

741
00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:15,480
Speaker 1: you had to wear a mask. And look what's happened.

742
00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:22,200
Speaker 1: He didn't do things. What was the thing he was

743
00:48:22,239 --> 00:48:25,759
Speaker 1: supposed to do? Doesn't matter? Orange man bad, That's all.

744
00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:31,880
Speaker 1: That's all you're supposed to take away from this. Wearing masks.

745
00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:37,480
Speaker 1: They're not a violation or freedom, No, it is. Actually,

746
00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:40,359
Speaker 1: if you want to wear a mask, wear a mask ahead,

747
00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:42,920
Speaker 1: that's your that's your call. It's basically a piece of clothing.

748
00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:44,680
Speaker 1: It's a piece of cloth you put over your mouth.

749
00:48:44,719 --> 00:48:46,120
Speaker 1: Go for it. I'm not saying, you know, if that

750
00:48:46,120 --> 00:48:50,600
Speaker 1: makes you feel better the government mandating this? Now, what

751
00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:54,080
Speaker 1: else can the government mandate? Slopes are in fact slippery. Friends,

752
00:48:54,080 --> 00:48:56,400
Speaker 1: where do you think this stops? You think the next

753
00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:59,040
Speaker 1: time you have a Democrat president with a Democrat majority

754
00:48:59,080 --> 00:49:02,120
Speaker 1: House and sent it that they're gonna play by the

755
00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:06,319
Speaker 1: rules and obey constitutional restraint or are they gonna ram

756
00:49:06,360 --> 00:49:09,080
Speaker 1: whatever they want through, like I don't know, climate change stuff.

757
00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:15,080
Speaker 1: And it's a health emergency, it's a gun violence emergency.

758
00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:17,439
Speaker 1: Got to take in all those guns, all those assault rifles,

759
00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:19,719
Speaker 1: hand him in and you go to prison. What do

760
00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:23,080
Speaker 1: you think they won't do that? It's just a question

761
00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:26,120
Speaker 1: of ken they It's not that they don't want to.

762
00:49:26,160 --> 00:49:31,360
Speaker 1: They tell us they want to. You're in the Freedom

763
00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:38,359
Speaker 1: und This is the Buck Sex and Show podcast. Meant

764
00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:42,279
Speaker 1: to mention this before, but today it broke that Bahrain

765
00:49:43,000 --> 00:49:47,280
Speaker 1: is another country that's going to normalize ties with Israel.

766
00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:50,000

769
00:50:01,080 --> 00:50:03,400
Speaker 1: There was the let's give it run a lot of money.

770
00:50:03,640 --> 00:50:06,800
Speaker 1: It's their money. They say, let's give a lot a

771
00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:08,959
Speaker 1: lot of them run a lot of money and send

772
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:11,760
Speaker 1: them pallets of cash to pay for hostages they've taken.

773
00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:14,040
Speaker 1: That's what they did. I'll never forget. I was on

774
00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:19,040
Speaker 1: CNN or with Girling Gurdon or Niction and for Greagan

775
00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:27,479
Speaker 1: administration Carmaron and what this is, this is the best

776
00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:31,480
Speaker 1: political analyst over at CNN, Mr remember Watergate and for

777
00:50:31,920 --> 00:50:37,960
Speaker 1: Niction Reagan, Carter mur And and I was saying, guys,

778
00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:44,759
Speaker 1: they we sent them a giant cash payment and they

779
00:50:44,800 --> 00:50:47,560
Speaker 1: sent us people that were Americans that they were holding

780
00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:53,360
Speaker 1: illegally as hostages. That is paying for hostage. That is

781
00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:57,040
Speaker 1: what we did. We paid off the Iranians to release hostages.

782
00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:00,080
Speaker 1: We negotiated with terrorists. That is what we did. They

783
00:51:00,160 --> 00:51:02,239
Speaker 1: see it and they're like, no, the tostages was a

784
00:51:02,320 --> 00:51:05,960
Speaker 1: separate thing in the cash just happened to you know,

785
00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:08,520
Speaker 1: like ships passing in the night and like a tire

786
00:51:08,640 --> 00:51:11,120
Speaker 1: with like a baby and like a thing. You know,

787
00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:16,720
Speaker 1: CNN just blather, just blather, doesn't didn't make any sense.

788
00:51:16,719 --> 00:51:20,400
Speaker 1: You're like, what another another piece deal for President Trump?

789
00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:23,400
Speaker 1: Another piece deal here that. Oh, but he's not worthy

790
00:51:23,400 --> 00:51:27,080
Speaker 1: of a Nobel Peace Prize. Obama, you know, Obama was

791
00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:34,080
Speaker 1: so so cool, so hip, doing doing great stuff, right,

792
00:51:34,280 --> 00:51:40,799
Speaker 1: That's what we were told. And Trump their hatred for him,

793
00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:49,200
Speaker 1: they're they're the criticisms of him aren't even interesting because

794
00:51:49,239 --> 00:51:54,000
Speaker 1: they're so deranged. The criticisms criticism of him aren't even

795
00:51:54,719 --> 00:52:02,440
Speaker 1: worth hearing because it's never it's never illuminating. You're just like,

796
00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:04,440
Speaker 1: this is the same stuff over and over again. They

797
00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:10,960
Speaker 1: simply they simply don't care. And then you also have, oh,

798
00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:12,840
Speaker 1: on the and the economic fallout, this is another thing

799
00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:16,319
Speaker 1: they're gonna blame on the president. Here's Joe Biden play

800
00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:19,480
Speaker 1: twenty three well. Experts say that if he had acted

801
00:52:19,520 --> 00:52:23,960
Speaker 1: just one week sooner, thirty six thousand people would have

802
00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:27,280
Speaker 1: been saved. If he acted two weeks sooner back in March,

803
00:52:27,400 --> 00:52:30,920
Speaker 1: fifty four thousand lives would have been spared in March

804
00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:34,240
Speaker 1: and April alone. You know, his failure is not only

805
00:52:34,280 --> 00:52:37,600
Speaker 1: cost lives, his center our economy and a tailspin. It

806
00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:42,560
Speaker 1: cost millions more in American livelihoods. This is a recession

807
00:52:42,680 --> 00:52:46,600
Speaker 1: created by Donald Trump's negligence and he is unfit for

808
00:52:46,640 --> 00:52:49,960
Speaker 1: this job. Is a consequence. I mean, that's just an

809
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:56,560
Speaker 1: intellectually indefensible, dumbass thing to say Trump created the recession. Really,

810
00:52:57,160 --> 00:52:59,000
Speaker 1: that's what we're gonna go with, now, Yeah, that's what

811
00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:02,840
Speaker 1: they're gonna go with. Biden is speaking to people like

812
00:53:02,840 --> 00:53:06,360
Speaker 1: he assumes they're all idiots or their program to just

813
00:53:06,520 --> 00:53:11,360
Speaker 1: nod and clap for whatever he says. That's it. Biden

814
00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:14,279
Speaker 1: speaking to human beings across the country like they have

815
00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:20,000
Speaker 1: no ability to sift through fact from fiction. And that's

816
00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:27,359
Speaker 1: really a very important characteristic for his voter base. This

817
00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:30,319
Speaker 1: is all about belief, and it's all about what they

818
00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:32,840
Speaker 1: are told to do and told to think. This is

819
00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:38,280
Speaker 1: not this is not, my friends, about a sober rational

820
00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:41,719
Speaker 1: judgment on the Trump presidency, not for Democrats. If it were,

821
00:53:41,719 --> 00:53:44,840
Speaker 1: they'd be saying very different stuff. Thanks for listening to

822
00:53:44,880 --> 00:53:49,440
Speaker 1: the past. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts at the

823
00:53:49,520 --> 00:53:54,000
Speaker 1: iHeart Radio app or wherever you get your podcasts. Let's

824
00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:58,880
Speaker 1: talk school reopening, home schooling, and whether Americans are finally

825
00:53:58,880 --> 00:54:03,120
Speaker 1: seeing that maybe the public's system not as entirely essential

826
00:54:03,320 --> 00:54:05,040
Speaker 1: as we had all been led to believe for a

827
00:54:05,160 --> 00:54:08,400
Speaker 1: very long time to walk us through all this stuff.

828
00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:10,719
Speaker 1: We've got our friend EDAs Felcher with us now. She's

829
00:54:10,760 --> 00:54:14,239
Speaker 1: a senior policy analyst at the Independent Woman's Forum in

830
00:54:14,520 --> 00:54:16,480
Speaker 1: It's good to have you back. It's always great to

831
00:54:16,520 --> 00:54:18,320
Speaker 1: be here with you, Buck. So, how are the school

832
00:54:18,360 --> 00:54:21,719
Speaker 1: reopenings going? What are we seeing? What's happening? Well, we're

833
00:54:21,719 --> 00:54:24,920
Speaker 1: seeing a lot of chaos in a lot of districts.

834
00:54:24,960 --> 00:54:27,640
Speaker 1: The plans weren't released until a week or two ago

835
00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:30,920
Speaker 1: in some cases, purposely so that it would be difficult

836
00:54:30,920 --> 00:54:33,680
Speaker 1: for families to make alternative arrangements that they weren't happy

837
00:54:33,719 --> 00:54:38,319
Speaker 1: with either the remote or hybrid plan that schools were introducing.

838
00:54:38,440 --> 00:54:41,319
Speaker 1: So there's been a lot of chaos. Some places are open,

839
00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:44,120
Speaker 1: some places are going a hybrid, which means you know,

840
00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:48,200
Speaker 1: there's there's rotating schedules once or twice a week in

841
00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:52,040
Speaker 1: person and the rest remote. And further the one more

842
00:54:52,440 --> 00:54:55,520
Speaker 1: portion of our nation schools are still going fully remote,

843
00:54:55,800 --> 00:55:00,080
Speaker 1: just like they did in the spring. So how has

844
00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:02,880
Speaker 1: it been in comparison to what the expectations were for

845
00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:06,399
Speaker 1: all these plans? Yeah, well, I think parents are very

846
00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:10,319
Speaker 1: frustrated right now because you know, this pandemic took us

847
00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:13,880
Speaker 1: all by surprise. We're not talking anymore about the months

848
00:55:13,880 --> 00:55:17,120
Speaker 1: of March and April. A lot of families limped through

849
00:55:17,960 --> 00:55:24,520
Speaker 1: very dissatisfying and ineffective distance learning through the Spring. But

850
00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:27,080
Speaker 1: what they're seeing is this year that things are not

851
00:55:27,120 --> 00:55:29,840
Speaker 1: that different, that schools are not really much more prepared

852
00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:34,440
Speaker 1: than they were in the Spring to deliver distance learning effectively.

853
00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:38,200
Speaker 1: So a lot of families are looking for alternative arrangements,

854
00:55:38,440 --> 00:55:42,719
Speaker 1: whether that's choosing to formally homeschool their kids or to

855
00:55:42,840 --> 00:55:45,879
Speaker 1: join what's called being called pandemic pods, right to join

856
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:49,480
Speaker 1: up with a few other families who have schooid children

857
00:55:49,760 --> 00:55:52,480
Speaker 1: and then to share an in person tutor or have

858
00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:56,800
Speaker 1: the parents take on rotating duties in terms of teaching

859
00:55:56,800 --> 00:56:00,120
Speaker 1: the children. So we're seeing a lot of innovation, a

860
00:56:00,120 --> 00:56:03,440
Speaker 1: lot of parent driven innovation. We're not seeing the school

861
00:56:03,480 --> 00:56:07,880
Speaker 1: system recognize how badly Spring distance learning has failed for

862
00:56:07,960 --> 00:56:10,480
Speaker 1: most families and then rushed to make that up, And

863
00:56:10,600 --> 00:56:15,520
Speaker 1: instead we're seeing teachers unions and edit school administrations try

864
00:56:15,640 --> 00:56:19,719
Speaker 1: to close off alternative avenues for parents out of fear

865
00:56:19,760 --> 00:56:23,160
Speaker 1: that they're going to lose funding. How is the homeschooling

866
00:56:23,280 --> 00:56:25,560
Speaker 1: surge coming along. Do we have some sense of how

867
00:56:25,560 --> 00:56:30,520
Speaker 1: many people new people are homeschooling and what's the I

868
00:56:30,560 --> 00:56:32,719
Speaker 1: guess there can't really be a consensus, but what are

869
00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:35,840
Speaker 1: some of the from the front lines of the homeschooling battles.

870
00:56:35,880 --> 00:56:37,840
Speaker 1: What are we hearing? Yeah, so we just had a

871
00:56:37,840 --> 00:56:40,120
Speaker 1: whole come out the other day that showed that one

872
00:56:40,200 --> 00:56:43,680
Speaker 1: in ten American families is now homeschooling, and the language

873
00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:46,560
Speaker 1: was very careful. This is not just folks who are

874
00:56:46,600 --> 00:56:50,280
Speaker 1: adding at home and have their kids somehow otherwise enrolled

875
00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:53,120
Speaker 1: in a school. These are folks that are formally homeschooling,

876
00:56:53,120 --> 00:56:57,400
Speaker 1: where their children are receiving education primarily from home. That's

877
00:56:57,520 --> 00:57:00,600
Speaker 1: more than double what the normal numbers, or so we've

878
00:57:00,600 --> 00:57:05,120
Speaker 1: seen homeschooling. Formal homeschooling numbers double and potentially even higher

879
00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:07,120
Speaker 1: than that, because again, this is families. So you've got

880
00:57:07,160 --> 00:57:09,200
Speaker 1: a lot of families with multiple kids, all of whom

881
00:57:09,200 --> 00:57:12,400
Speaker 1: are now being schooled at home, so the percentage of

882
00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:15,760
Speaker 1: kids might even be up more than that ten percent.

883
00:57:16,040 --> 00:57:18,720
Speaker 1: And then you have all the families that are experimenting

884
00:57:18,760 --> 00:57:23,200
Speaker 1: with different kinds of alternatives in addition to virtual learning

885
00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:26,040
Speaker 1: of parents who weren't satisfied with the virtual learning. They're

886
00:57:26,080 --> 00:57:29,080
Speaker 1: still having their kids, you know, to go to school

887
00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:32,640
Speaker 1: and be counted on the attendance rosters, but they're either

888
00:57:32,720 --> 00:57:35,680
Speaker 1: doing pods or they're teaching their kids more at home.

889
00:57:35,720 --> 00:57:38,360
Speaker 1: So I suspect actually the impact is much bigger. But

890
00:57:38,440 --> 00:57:42,040
Speaker 1: what we have seen is a drastic draw down in

891
00:57:42,160 --> 00:57:46,000
Speaker 1: enrollment numbers from eighty three percents, not including charter schools.

892
00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:49,880
Speaker 1: Actually charter schools, Interestingly, those numbers have held steady, meaning

893
00:57:49,920 --> 00:57:53,520
Speaker 1: that parents are relatively satisfied with what they're delivering getting

894
00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:56,760
Speaker 1: from charter schools as opposed to traditional public schools. But

895
00:57:57,400 --> 00:57:59,480
Speaker 1: in the traditional publics, who have gone down from eighty

896
00:57:59,480 --> 00:58:02,160
Speaker 1: three percent of American students being enrolled in traditional public

897
00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:05,720
Speaker 1: schools to seventy six. I mean, that's an earthquake. And

898
00:58:06,040 --> 00:58:08,040
Speaker 1: it remains to be seen whether this will be a

899
00:58:08,120 --> 00:58:10,920
Speaker 1: one year thing in response to the coronavirus. I suspect

900
00:58:10,960 --> 00:58:14,360
Speaker 1: it will have a long term cultural impact and hopefully

901
00:58:14,400 --> 00:58:17,320
Speaker 1: we'll change the education system for the better. How are

902
00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:22,120
Speaker 1: the teachers unions fighting back against this? I've seen some

903
00:58:22,120 --> 00:58:26,360
Speaker 1: stories here and there about efforts to make homeschooling either

904
00:58:26,600 --> 00:58:31,720
Speaker 1: more difficult or just not allowed. What's going on with that? Yeah, absolutely,

905
00:58:31,760 --> 00:58:34,320
Speaker 1: there's definitely been pushed back from districts again trying to

906
00:58:34,360 --> 00:58:37,080
Speaker 1: close off those alternative options for parents who are not

907
00:58:37,160 --> 00:58:40,000
Speaker 1: satisfied with what they're getting from the public schools instead

908
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:43,080
Speaker 1: of trying to improve what they're delivering to parents, public

909
00:58:43,160 --> 00:58:46,280
Speaker 1: schools oftentimes and especially teachers unions have gone either way

910
00:58:46,320 --> 00:58:49,400
Speaker 1: to try to foreclose other options. So, for example, in

911
00:58:49,520 --> 00:58:53,560
Speaker 1: states like Oregon, in Pennsylvania, they've been pushing the unions

912
00:58:53,560 --> 00:58:56,520
Speaker 1: have been pushing the state legislatures to cap enrollment in

913
00:58:56,600 --> 00:59:00,360
Speaker 1: virtual charter schools that already existed. These are charter schools

914
00:59:00,360 --> 00:59:03,600
Speaker 1: that are used to delivering content online and they've been

915
00:59:03,640 --> 00:59:06,560
Speaker 1: doing so for many years prior to the pandemic, and

916
00:59:06,880 --> 00:59:09,080
Speaker 1: just makes sense to you know, learn from them and

917
00:59:09,080 --> 00:59:11,400
Speaker 1: to let them increase in enrollment. But teachers unions to

918
00:59:11,480 --> 00:59:14,800
Speaker 1: try to close off those options. They've also sent there

919
00:59:14,840 --> 00:59:17,960
Speaker 1: was one principle in a San Diego district that sent

920
00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:21,960
Speaker 1: out a message to parents basically warning them that if

921
00:59:21,960 --> 00:59:25,560
Speaker 1: they didn't jump through all the correct hoops in terms

922
00:59:25,560 --> 00:59:28,720
Speaker 1: of registering their their students as homeschoolers, then what they

923
00:59:28,720 --> 00:59:32,200
Speaker 1: would be doing is illegal. I highly recommend Homeschool Legal

924
00:59:32,200 --> 00:59:36,200
Speaker 1: Defense Association if you're considering homeschooling. Their membership, I think

925
00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:38,280
Speaker 1: is like eleven bucks a year, and they have all

926
00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:40,800
Speaker 1: of the legal informations. You can make sure to cross

927
00:59:40,800 --> 00:59:42,960
Speaker 1: your teas and diet your eyes. But this was obviously

928
00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:45,160
Speaker 1: an attempt from a San Diego principle to try to

929
00:59:45,240 --> 00:59:49,840
Speaker 1: discourage families from homeschooling, and it ended with an appeal,

930
00:59:49,920 --> 00:59:53,280
Speaker 1: please please don't don't leave our school. Our staff salaries

931
00:59:53,360 --> 00:59:56,800
Speaker 1: depend on you enrolling, which, of course, the purpose of

932
00:59:56,840 --> 00:59:59,520
Speaker 1: the seven hundred billion dollars we spend every year in

933
00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:02,800
Speaker 1: education is supposed to be for educating children. It's not

934
01:00:02,840 --> 01:00:07,560
Speaker 1: just supposed to be staff salaries for adults and empty buildings.

935
01:00:07,560 --> 01:00:09,520
Speaker 1: Oh actually, and let me just add one more, one

936
01:00:09,520 --> 01:00:12,560
Speaker 1: more thing. What we're seeing is the rise of these NDAs,

937
01:00:13,240 --> 01:00:17,360
Speaker 1: the non disclosure agreements. For families that are receiving virtual learning.

938
01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:20,400
Speaker 1: They're getting legal documents from the school saying that parents

939
01:00:20,440 --> 01:00:23,680
Speaker 1: are either not allowed to sit in on those classes

940
01:00:23,680 --> 01:00:26,480
Speaker 1: and to watch the content their kids are learning, or

941
01:00:26,520 --> 01:00:28,960
Speaker 1: if they do, they're not allowed to share that content.

942
01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:31,760
Speaker 1: Because we're seeing that pop up on Twitter, and you know,

943
01:00:31,800 --> 01:00:34,680
Speaker 1: Temper Carlson. We're seeing some of these examples of what

944
01:00:34,760 --> 01:00:37,040
Speaker 1: kids are actually learning in schools for the first time.

945
01:00:37,120 --> 01:00:38,480
Speaker 1: This is a first time for a lot of parents.

946
01:00:38,560 --> 01:00:41,160
Speaker 1: They're actually seeing this material and they're not pleased, and

947
01:00:41,200 --> 01:00:43,960
Speaker 1: schools are trying to get around that backlash by forcing

948
01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:47,920
Speaker 1: families to sign nondisclosure agreements. Is before I Let You Go,

949
01:00:48,080 --> 01:00:51,439
Speaker 1: and it's in as Felcher from the Independent Women's Forum

950
01:00:51,400 --> 01:00:54,720
Speaker 1: where she's a senior policy analyst For people listening to

951
01:00:54,720 --> 01:00:58,720
Speaker 1: this who are either maybe just starting or thinking about

952
01:00:58,760 --> 01:01:01,440
Speaker 1: homeschooling their kids, but they might have this thought of

953
01:01:01,840 --> 01:01:05,200
Speaker 1: am I doing it right? Can I a basic I mean, look,

954
01:01:05,240 --> 01:01:07,360
Speaker 1: I would think am I in a position if I

955
01:01:07,400 --> 01:01:09,160
Speaker 1: had kids? Which I don't, But am I in a

956
01:01:09,160 --> 01:01:11,040
Speaker 1: position to homeschool my kids? Do I know how to

957
01:01:11,120 --> 01:01:14,720
Speaker 1: do this? Where can those parents go? Um? Like I said,

958
01:01:14,840 --> 01:01:19,280
Speaker 1: HSLDA is a great resource, but also my organization IWF.

959
01:01:19,480 --> 01:01:22,280
Speaker 1: We've done a number of blog posts from homeschooling families

960
01:01:22,280 --> 01:01:25,200
Speaker 1: who are homeschooling before the pandemic with tips and tricks,

961
01:01:25,840 --> 01:01:28,800
Speaker 1: and there's been a lot of that, especially the Daily

962
01:01:28,840 --> 01:01:32,200
Speaker 1: Signal over A. Heritage Foundation has had some great events.

963
01:01:32,400 --> 01:01:35,280
Speaker 1: Heritage foundation itself has put together events from families that

964
01:01:35,320 --> 01:01:39,200
Speaker 1: are doing plotting or homeschooling before basically giving those those

965
01:01:39,560 --> 01:01:44,840
Speaker 1: those sort of advice and tricks and recommending curriculum and materials.

966
01:01:45,480 --> 01:01:47,840
Speaker 1: There's a lot of this stuff out there online. It

967
01:01:47,920 --> 01:01:50,400
Speaker 1: can feel overwhelming, but I think the number one thing

968
01:01:50,600 --> 01:01:54,680
Speaker 1: to keep in mind is that you're not replicating school

969
01:01:54,840 --> 01:01:58,320
Speaker 1: at home. It actually is a much more relaxed Many

970
01:01:58,360 --> 01:02:00,840
Speaker 1: families find it to be a much more relax environment.

971
01:02:00,840 --> 01:02:04,040
Speaker 1: They find they can get through the kind of academic

972
01:02:04,080 --> 01:02:06,840
Speaker 1: material and a much smaller number of hours than sending

973
01:02:06,840 --> 01:02:08,920
Speaker 1: your kids off to school for seven or eight hours

974
01:02:09,160 --> 01:02:11,600
Speaker 1: and then having them come back to home to do

975
01:02:11,640 --> 01:02:13,800
Speaker 1: two or three more hours of homework. And a lot

976
01:02:13,840 --> 01:02:16,400
Speaker 1: of families are finding, actually, especially in comparison to the

977
01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:20,640
Speaker 1: chaos that's happening across the public schools today, that actually

978
01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:24,240
Speaker 1: homeschooling is a more relaxing auction, and I feel like

979
01:02:24,320 --> 01:02:27,320
Speaker 1: perhaps a weight has been lifted off of their backs

980
01:02:27,400 --> 01:02:30,360
Speaker 1: rather than frantically trying to keep up with whatever that

981
01:02:30,440 --> 01:02:33,760
Speaker 1: the schedule of the week is. With virtual learning. Have

982
01:02:33,840 --> 01:02:36,040
Speaker 1: you ever heard Michael Malice say that? He says this

983
01:02:36,160 --> 01:02:39,560
Speaker 1: often public schools are prisons for children. Have you ever

984
01:02:39,600 --> 01:02:42,400
Speaker 1: heard that? I just wondering. A few come across it.

985
01:02:42,520 --> 01:02:45,640
Speaker 1: I haven't. It didn't originate with him, Yeah, really, I've

986
01:02:45,680 --> 01:02:47,480
Speaker 1: never heard anyone else say that. Where did that originate?

987
01:02:47,960 --> 01:02:49,480
Speaker 1: I don't know, but I've been hearing it for like

988
01:02:49,560 --> 01:02:53,160
Speaker 1: well over a decade. So it's what are your various

989
01:02:53,280 --> 01:02:57,320
Speaker 1: online nowadays? I don't. I don't think public schools are prisons.

990
01:02:57,320 --> 01:03:01,600
Speaker 1: I actually think, you know, originally the public school system.

991
01:03:01,640 --> 01:03:03,440
Speaker 1: I'm of two minds as to the history of the

992
01:03:03,440 --> 01:03:05,840
Speaker 1: public school system, the common schools in the United States.

993
01:03:06,280 --> 01:03:08,640
Speaker 1: On the one hand, they did centralized education in a

994
01:03:08,640 --> 01:03:11,480
Speaker 1: way I think was negative for the country, but they

995
01:03:11,520 --> 01:03:15,720
Speaker 1: also did create some kind of community bonds between folks.

996
01:03:15,720 --> 01:03:18,520
Speaker 1: And actually, this is one of the last community you know,

997
01:03:18,600 --> 01:03:21,160
Speaker 1: sort of centers that a lot of American towns have

998
01:03:21,280 --> 01:03:24,600
Speaker 1: people gather for for you know, football games on Friday.

999
01:03:24,800 --> 01:03:27,040
Speaker 1: They do provide a lot of this community blue and

1000
01:03:27,080 --> 01:03:30,120
Speaker 1: I don't want to downplay the importance of that. Unfortunately,

1001
01:03:30,160 --> 01:03:33,280
Speaker 1: it can't come at the expense of education. That it's

1002
01:03:33,360 --> 01:03:36,640
Speaker 1: they're all the socialization aspects and the community aspects. Those

1003
01:03:36,680 --> 01:03:39,720
Speaker 1: are all wonderful and important, But first and foremost, you know,

1004
01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:43,480
Speaker 1: education has to be about education, and both in terms

1005
01:03:43,560 --> 01:03:48,720
Speaker 1: of just academics and not delivering you know, academic results

1006
01:03:48,840 --> 01:03:50,960
Speaker 1: year after year. The public schools have failed. And then

1007
01:03:51,000 --> 01:03:53,400
Speaker 1: I think even more importantly, they've they've really failed to

1008
01:03:53,440 --> 01:03:58,000
Speaker 1: equip now two generations, mine and yours. They assume the millennials,

1009
01:03:58,000 --> 01:04:02,240
Speaker 1: you might be an x xennial. Oh hey, hey, I'm

1010
01:04:02,560 --> 01:04:07,360
Speaker 1: an old millennial. Yeah, but our generation and then the

1011
01:04:07,400 --> 01:04:11,640
Speaker 1: generation that's coming after us. They've totally failed to equip

1012
01:04:11,720 --> 01:04:14,960
Speaker 1: us as a generation with the knowledge of being a

1013
01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:19,800
Speaker 1: good American citizen, to understand our founding, understand our constitution,

1014
01:04:19,880 --> 01:04:23,080
Speaker 1: our way of life here in America. And instead they've

1015
01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:28,720
Speaker 1: largely inculcated false leaps about America being systemically racist. And

1016
01:04:28,760 --> 01:04:33,840
Speaker 1: we're seeing the results of teaching. We're broadly teaching these myths,

1017
01:04:33,880 --> 01:04:36,520
Speaker 1: these dangerous myths today, I think in the riots and

1018
01:04:36,560 --> 01:04:39,160
Speaker 1: the unrest. So I don't think the public schools have

1019
01:04:39,160 --> 01:04:41,280
Speaker 1: done a bang up job. Even though they do, I

1020
01:04:41,280 --> 01:04:43,320
Speaker 1: wouldn't call them prisons. I do think they provide some

1021
01:04:43,360 --> 01:04:47,120
Speaker 1: community aspects that are important, but those those community aspects

1022
01:04:47,120 --> 01:04:51,200
Speaker 1: cannot outweigh the importance of education and citizenship. Ines belter,

1023
01:04:51,280 --> 01:04:53,320
Speaker 1: everybody es, thanks so much for joining. Always good to

1024
01:04:53,320 --> 01:04:57,720
Speaker 1: see you. He's always great to see you. But you're

1025
01:04:57,760 --> 01:05:01,440
Speaker 1: in the Freedom Hunt. This is the Sex and Show podcast.

1026
01:05:05,040 --> 01:05:09,040
Speaker 1: You know how you become famous as a journal accused

1027
01:05:09,080 --> 01:05:12,920
Speaker 1: Trump of something bad? And if you just want to

1028
01:05:12,960 --> 01:05:15,240
Speaker 1: score a whole bunch of points and get social media followers,

1029
01:05:15,240 --> 01:05:18,320
Speaker 1: say that he's a liar. Say in the West wing

1030
01:05:18,520 --> 01:05:20,680
Speaker 1: of the White House that the President of the United

1031
01:05:20,720 --> 01:05:27,720
Speaker 1: States is a liar? Play clip eighteen. Why did you

1032
01:05:27,880 --> 01:05:30,840
Speaker 1: mind the American people? And why should we trust what

1033
01:05:30,920 --> 01:05:34,400
Speaker 1: you have to say? A terrible question and the phraseology

1034
01:05:34,680 --> 01:05:37,000
Speaker 1: I didn't lie. What I said is we have to

1035
01:05:37,040 --> 01:05:42,600
Speaker 1: become we can't be panicked. I knew that the tapes were.

1036
01:05:42,480 --> 01:05:44,560
Speaker 1: These were a series of phone calls that we had,

1037
01:05:44,600 --> 01:05:49,920
Speaker 1: mostly phone calls. And Bob Woodward is somebody that I

1038
01:05:50,040 --> 01:05:53,000
Speaker 1: respect just from hearing the name from many many years,

1039
01:05:53,600 --> 01:05:55,840
Speaker 1: not knowing too much about his work and not caring

1040
01:05:55,880 --> 01:05:58,440
Speaker 1: about his work. But I thought it would be interesting

1041
01:05:58,480 --> 01:06:02,160
Speaker 1: to talk to him for a period of you know, calls,

1042
01:06:02,240 --> 01:06:04,400
Speaker 1: So we did that. I don't know if it's good

1043
01:06:04,400 --> 01:06:05,680
Speaker 1: a bit. I don't even know if the book is

1044
01:06:05,680 --> 01:06:09,600
Speaker 1: good or bad. But certainly if he thought that was

1045
01:06:09,640 --> 01:06:12,640
Speaker 1: a bad statement, he would have reported it because he

1046
01:06:12,760 --> 01:06:14,600
Speaker 1: thinks that, you know, or you don't want to have

1047
01:06:14,640 --> 01:06:20,200
Speaker 1: anybody that is going to suffer medically because of some fact.

1048
01:06:20,760 --> 01:06:22,880
Speaker 1: And he didn't report it because he didn't think it

1049
01:06:22,920 --> 01:06:24,959
Speaker 1: was bad. Nobody thought it was been win a minute,

1050
01:06:24,960 --> 01:06:27,320
Speaker 1: win a minute. And you question the way you phrase

1051
01:06:27,400 --> 01:06:29,800
Speaker 1: that is such a disgrace. It's a disgrace to ABC

1052
01:06:29,960 --> 01:06:34,160
Speaker 1: Television network. It's a disgrace to your employer. Yep, it is.

1053
01:06:34,760 --> 01:06:39,600
Speaker 1: I pointed out that Obama lied to the entire American people,

1054
01:06:39,600 --> 01:06:41,400
Speaker 1: I mean really lied. If you like your healthcare plan,

1055
01:06:41,440 --> 01:06:44,120
Speaker 1: you can keep it. He lied to get something passed

1056
01:06:44,520 --> 01:06:47,320
Speaker 1: through the Congress that he wouldn't have been able to otherwise.

1057
01:06:47,560 --> 01:06:49,360
Speaker 1: He knew it was a lie when he said it.

1058
01:06:49,520 --> 01:06:52,040
Speaker 1: He repeated it tons of times. It affected a lot

1059
01:06:52,080 --> 01:06:57,200
Speaker 1: of people, cause and effect. Do you think that Jonathan

1060
01:06:57,280 --> 01:07:00,480
Speaker 1: Carl ever said why did you lie? Oh? I'm sure?

1061
01:07:00,520 --> 01:07:05,640
Speaker 1: Fake Tapper was like, thir did you did you feel

1062
01:07:05,640 --> 01:07:09,760
Speaker 1: like you perhaps misled, maybe a little unintentionally, but misled

1063
01:07:09,800 --> 01:07:12,960
Speaker 1: the American people? Was there a lack of candor when

1064
01:07:13,040 --> 01:07:16,720
Speaker 1: you Jonathan Carl's like, why did you lie. It's a

1065
01:07:16,880 --> 01:07:19,840
Speaker 1: very different things. Right. If you go up to somebody

1066
01:07:19,880 --> 01:07:21,720
Speaker 1: and you say, hey Bob, you know you said you

1067
01:07:21,720 --> 01:07:25,919
Speaker 1: were gonna hand in your TPS report yesterday and there

1068
01:07:25,960 --> 01:07:29,160
Speaker 1: was no TPS report, you know you think maybe you

1069
01:07:29,320 --> 01:07:31,120
Speaker 1: misspoke on that one. That's one thing if you want

1070
01:07:31,160 --> 01:07:34,360
Speaker 1: to be hey Bob, you're a TPS report, not doing liar,

1071
01:07:34,840 --> 01:07:40,480
Speaker 1: very different, right. It's about respect, it's about decorum, it's

1072
01:07:40,480 --> 01:07:42,600
Speaker 1: about a show of decency. But if you want to

1073
01:07:42,640 --> 01:07:45,640
Speaker 1: be a famous journal and you're or a more famous journal,

1074
01:07:45,640 --> 01:07:48,280
Speaker 1: all you have to do is attack Trump in some

1075
01:07:48,360 --> 01:07:51,560
Speaker 1: way and everyone thinks that you're such a great guy. Well,

1076
01:07:51,760 --> 01:08:00,800
Speaker 1: sometimes these days you have, I think, a recognition that

1077
01:08:01,240 --> 01:08:06,760
Speaker 1: Joe Biden can't get this thing done. The more people

1078
01:08:06,920 --> 01:08:10,800
Speaker 1: see him out there, the more they recognize that this

1079
01:08:10,840 --> 01:08:16,920
Speaker 1: guy is just unable to do it, unable to do it,

1080
01:08:17,840 --> 01:08:20,600
Speaker 1: and that his best plan for America so far is

1081
01:08:20,640 --> 01:08:24,040
Speaker 1: that he's going to take more of your money. Play thirteen.

1082
01:08:25,560 --> 01:08:29,439
Speaker 1: What I'm talking about is no one making under four

1083
01:08:29,520 --> 01:08:31,799
Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars a year, and we'll pay a single

1084
01:08:31,880 --> 01:08:35,679
Speaker 1: increase in taxes. Have a list here of the taxes

1085
01:08:35,720 --> 01:08:38,800
Speaker 1: we're going to change to make sure that everybody pays

1086
01:08:38,840 --> 01:08:41,200
Speaker 1: their fair share. And you realize there's nineteen and the

1087
01:08:41,720 --> 01:08:44,559
Speaker 1: fortune five hundred companies don't pay a single penny in tax,

1088
01:08:44,960 --> 01:08:49,560
Speaker 1: not one single penny in taxes that people making in

1089
01:08:49,680 --> 01:08:53,200
Speaker 1: the top one from By the time the tax cut

1090
01:08:53,240 --> 01:08:56,280
Speaker 1: the ten years runs out, middle class taxes are going

1091
01:08:56,320 --> 01:08:59,719
Speaker 1: to go up even higher. And their Trump's tax bill,

1092
01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:03,000
Speaker 1: and they're wealthy, You're going to get even more wealthy.

1093
01:09:03,160 --> 01:09:05,920
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to punish anybody. Yeah, but when would

1094
01:09:05,960 --> 01:09:08,360
Speaker 1: you make these changes? Is my point? Because the economy

1095
01:09:08,439 --> 01:09:11,040
Speaker 1: is in a bad state right now. You wouldn't. I mean,

1096
01:09:11,080 --> 01:09:13,719
Speaker 1: would you wait for unemployment to go under two percent?

1097
01:09:13,760 --> 01:09:15,920
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, I'd make the changes on the

1098
01:09:15,960 --> 01:09:18,920
Speaker 1: corporate taxes on day one. And the reason I make

1099
01:09:19,400 --> 01:09:21,679
Speaker 1: the change of corporate taxes it can raise one point

1100
01:09:21,720 --> 01:09:24,559
Speaker 1: three trillion dollars if they just start paying at twenty

1101
01:09:24,560 --> 01:09:27,559
Speaker 1: eight percent to twenty one percent. And what's what are

1102
01:09:27,560 --> 01:09:30,800
Speaker 1: they doing? They're not hiring more people. This guy has

1103
01:09:31,080 --> 01:09:34,400
Speaker 1: no idea what he's talking about. Not very smart, never

1104
01:09:34,479 --> 01:09:37,040
Speaker 1: has been very smart, not very successful other than just

1105
01:09:37,080 --> 01:09:39,960
Speaker 1: in getting elected to senator from Delaware. No offense to

1106
01:09:40,360 --> 01:09:44,400
Speaker 1: any of our beloved Delaware listeners. But it is like,

1107
01:09:44,560 --> 01:09:47,320
Speaker 1: you know, becoming the mayor of Schenectady. It's not that

1108
01:09:47,360 --> 01:09:49,439
Speaker 1: big a deal to be a senator from a state

1109
01:09:50,080 --> 01:09:53,600
Speaker 1: of the size and political importance. Again, beautiful beaches. I

1110
01:09:53,640 --> 01:09:57,040
Speaker 1: like Delaware, but it's a different deal when you're talking

1111
01:09:57,080 --> 01:09:59,639
Speaker 1: about whether we're supposed to be impressed by Joe Biden's

1112
01:09:59,640 --> 01:10:03,720
Speaker 1: political career there. But Trump understands that there's a weakness year.

1113
01:10:03,760 --> 01:10:08,040
Speaker 1: Trump understands that the Libs, they're just the weekend at

1114
01:10:08,040 --> 01:10:10,920
Speaker 1: Bernie's candidacy has some cracks in it. There are some

1115
01:10:11,080 --> 01:10:16,679
Speaker 1: problems play seventeen. As we continue to follow the science

1116
01:10:16,680 --> 01:10:20,479
Speaker 1: based approach to protect our people and vanquish the virus,

1117
01:10:20,560 --> 01:10:24,200
Speaker 1: Joe Biden continues to use the pandemic for political game.

1118
01:10:24,240 --> 01:10:26,559
Speaker 1: Every time I see him, he starts talking about the pandemic.

1119
01:10:26,560 --> 01:10:28,680
Speaker 1: He's reading an off a teleprompter. I'm not allowed to

1120
01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:31,920
Speaker 1: use the teleprompter. Why is that phil? They ask questions,

1121
01:10:31,920 --> 01:10:34,880
Speaker 1: and he starts reading the teleprompter. He says, move the

1122
01:10:34,880 --> 01:10:37,920
Speaker 1: teleprompter a little bit closer, please. I don't know. I

1123
01:10:37,960 --> 01:10:39,559
Speaker 1: think if I did that, I'd be in big trouble.

1124
01:10:40,040 --> 01:10:42,200
Speaker 1: I think that would be that would be the story

1125
01:10:42,240 --> 01:10:46,040
Speaker 1: of the year. I think the President's right. I think

1126
01:10:46,040 --> 01:10:50,200
Speaker 1: he knows Biden's being propped up. Thanks for listening to

1127
01:10:50,240 --> 01:10:54,520
Speaker 1: The bus Essence Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple Podcasts,

Speaker 1: the iHeartRadio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. Biden

1129
01:11:00,000 --> 01:11:04,120
Speaker 1: oakes person for the campaign who looks like Pajama Boy.

1130
01:11:04,280 --> 01:11:09,360
Speaker 1: So Pajama Boys got a new gig. His name is Ducklow,

1131
01:11:09,479 --> 01:11:13,240
Speaker 1: TJ Ducklow, and one thing's for sure after last night,

1132
01:11:13,680 --> 01:11:19,680
Speaker 1: we all know TJ knows how to ducklow the question wampwamp.

1133
01:11:20,960 --> 01:11:25,240
Speaker 1: But he appeared on TV and Bret Bear, who look

1134
01:11:25,320 --> 01:11:28,160
Speaker 1: the guys he's I'm sure he's ideologically a conservative, and

1135
01:11:28,160 --> 01:11:30,480
Speaker 1: I think he comes at news from a conservative perspective,

1136
01:11:30,479 --> 01:11:34,479
Speaker 1: but I also think he's he is fair to Democrat guests.

1137
01:11:34,960 --> 01:11:39,200
Speaker 1: He asks fair questions, he lets people talk, he lets

1138
01:11:39,240 --> 01:11:43,439
Speaker 1: them answer. So you know, if you're going to be

1139
01:11:43,479 --> 01:11:46,160
Speaker 1: a journalist who has a point of view, at least

1140
01:11:47,200 --> 01:11:50,759
Speaker 1: that Brett Bear rules you would think should apply. And

1141
01:11:51,320 --> 01:11:56,200
Speaker 1: this is how mister Ducklow was ducklow ing all the

1142
01:11:56,280 --> 01:11:58,760
Speaker 1: things asked of him. This is just one example of

1143
01:11:58,760 --> 01:12:01,280
Speaker 1: a play clip two end with this has Joe Biden

1144
01:12:01,400 --> 01:12:05,160
Speaker 1: ever used a teleprompter during local interviews or to answer

1145
01:12:05,360 --> 01:12:07,640
Speaker 1: Q and A with supporters? Brett, we are not going

1146
01:12:07,720 --> 01:12:10,639
Speaker 1: to get this is this is straight from the Trump campaign. Yeah,

1147
01:12:10,760 --> 01:12:12,760
Speaker 1: they're using and what it does. And what it does

1148
01:12:12,800 --> 01:12:15,479
Speaker 1: Brett is it's trying to distract the American people just

1149
01:12:15,680 --> 01:12:17,760
Speaker 1: from they're using it, and they talk about it every day.

1150
01:12:17,760 --> 01:12:19,640
Speaker 1: Can you say yes or no? That's because they talk

1151
01:12:19,680 --> 01:12:21,640
Speaker 1: about it every day, Brett, because they don't have a

1152
01:12:21,760 --> 01:12:25,160
Speaker 1: coherent Well you try to answer yes or no, Brett.

1153
01:12:25,200 --> 01:12:27,240
Speaker 1: They talk about it every day because they don't have

1154
01:12:27,240 --> 01:12:30,439
Speaker 1: a coherent argument for why Donald Trump deserves reelection, deserves

1155
01:12:30,439 --> 01:12:32,360
Speaker 1: four more years. We know that he lied to the

1156
01:12:32,400 --> 01:12:35,879
Speaker 1: American people. We know that he has not shown leadership

1157
01:12:35,960 --> 01:12:38,679
Speaker 1: during this crisis, and they are desperate to throw anything

1158
01:12:38,720 --> 01:12:40,760
Speaker 1: they can against the wall to try to distract from

1159
01:12:40,760 --> 01:12:43,920
Speaker 1: that fact. I understand, but you can't answer the question, Brett.

1160
01:12:43,960 --> 01:12:46,400
Speaker 1: I am not going to allow Trump campaign to funnel

1161
01:12:46,439 --> 01:12:49,120
Speaker 1: their questions through Fox News and get me to respond

1162
01:12:49,160 --> 01:12:53,599
Speaker 1: to that. Well again, you respond to that, dude, it's

1163
01:12:53,600 --> 01:12:58,559
Speaker 1: not hard buck Sexton. Last night, are you robbing a bank?

1164
01:12:58,720 --> 01:13:02,479
Speaker 1: I refuse to answer your question about whether I was

1165
01:13:02,560 --> 01:13:05,320
Speaker 1: robbing a bank last Now you even to say, no, man,

1166
01:13:05,360 --> 01:13:08,160
Speaker 1: I was not robbing a bank last night. Now, I

1167
01:13:08,280 --> 01:13:11,400
Speaker 1: understand that you could say something like, well, Buck, what

1168
01:13:11,400 --> 01:13:13,280
Speaker 1: about you know, when did you stop beating your wife? Yeah,

1169
01:13:13,320 --> 01:13:16,400
Speaker 1: there are loaded questions that are meant to be in attack.

1170
01:13:16,520 --> 01:13:20,519
Speaker 1: But does Biden user prompter during local interviews? That's feasible,

1171
01:13:21,080 --> 01:13:26,320
Speaker 1: that's plausible? Is it yes or no question? Yes or

1172
01:13:26,400 --> 01:13:31,759
Speaker 1: no question? For he's not hard, but Biden's little buddy

1173
01:13:31,840 --> 01:13:35,400
Speaker 1: here not a strong showing. Also, I didn't know Michael

1174
01:13:35,439 --> 01:13:37,760
Speaker 1: Knowles had a twin brother. What's going on with that?

1175
01:13:38,360 --> 01:13:40,120
Speaker 1: I like Michael knows. I'm just saying he kind of

1176
01:13:40,120 --> 01:13:42,080
Speaker 1: looks like Michael knows a little bit. Michael knows way

1177
01:13:42,080 --> 01:13:46,519
Speaker 1: better looking, of course, way better looking, but anyway, and

1178
01:13:46,640 --> 01:13:49,479
Speaker 1: also is a patriot, loves America. We've had Michael on

1179
01:13:49,520 --> 01:13:51,200
Speaker 1: the show a bunch of times. Good dude, good dude.

1180
01:13:51,680 --> 01:13:58,280
Speaker 1: So Biden himself though, really not much better when he's

1181
01:13:58,320 --> 01:14:02,880
Speaker 1: having to answer a question. You know you're seeing something here.

1182
01:14:02,920 --> 01:14:06,840
Speaker 1: There's a Democrat approach to Trump where you can't say

1183
01:14:06,880 --> 01:14:12,639
Speaker 1: that Trump did anything right. You can give no credit.

1184
01:14:12,760 --> 01:14:15,880
Speaker 1: Here's an example during the Obama administration. When people would say,

1185
01:14:15,920 --> 01:14:18,760
Speaker 1: was that if someone had asked me or or a

1186
01:14:18,800 --> 01:14:22,800
Speaker 1: conservative I think in general conservatives, was it a good

1187
01:14:22,800 --> 01:14:26,280
Speaker 1: thing that Biden. I'm sorry that Obama gave the order

1188
01:14:26,280 --> 01:14:28,639
Speaker 1: to take out Osama. Bin Lad, Yes, you gotta say, yes,

1189
01:14:28,680 --> 01:14:31,320
Speaker 1: that was the right move. Okay, Obama? You know that's

1190
01:14:31,439 --> 01:14:34,240
Speaker 1: that's points on the board for Obama. Look, let's not

1191
01:14:34,320 --> 01:14:36,400
Speaker 1: pretend that things that are good are actually bad just

1192
01:14:36,439 --> 01:14:38,080
Speaker 1: because somebody who does a lot of things we don't

1193
01:14:38,120 --> 01:14:41,479
Speaker 1: like did it all right, So I think that's that's

1194
01:14:41,600 --> 01:14:46,080
Speaker 1: This is about having a principle. This is about calling

1195
01:14:46,160 --> 01:14:52,240
Speaker 1: things what they are. And then you have on the

1196
01:14:52,280 --> 01:14:58,559
Speaker 1: other side of this, you have Biden asked, for example,

1197
01:14:58,600 --> 01:15:04,519
Speaker 1: about trade. Now Trump came into office and we were told,

1198
01:15:04,560 --> 01:15:07,040
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, he doesn't know anything about trade, he

1199
01:15:07,080 --> 01:15:14,599
Speaker 1: doesn't understand trade. And then everyone who did a little

1200
01:15:14,600 --> 01:15:16,400
Speaker 1: bit of reading on this found out, well, wait a second,

1201
01:15:17,200 --> 01:15:20,800
Speaker 1: NAPTA actually does need to be renegotiated. That should happen.

1202
01:15:21,720 --> 01:15:25,200
Speaker 1: Why hasn't that happened? And then Trump came along with

1203
01:15:25,240 --> 01:15:31,479
Speaker 1: the USMCA, which even Nancy Pelosi said was a good

1204
01:15:32,000 --> 01:15:35,760
Speaker 1: thing for the country. But when Biden's asked about it.

1205
01:15:35,840 --> 01:15:38,479
Speaker 1: Listen to the bar riah your room, just sort of

1206
01:15:38,560 --> 01:15:42,600
Speaker 1: mumbling stuff, and I know him trying to stay awaken.

1207
01:15:43,360 --> 01:15:46,920
Speaker 1: It's not easy, Blake clip one. Something else he did

1208
01:15:47,000 --> 01:15:50,519
Speaker 1: is he renegotiated NAFTA. He did. He renegotiated NAFTA. Now,

1209
01:15:50,560 --> 01:15:53,080
Speaker 1: when you ran for president and when Barack Obama ran

1210
01:15:53,120 --> 01:15:56,679
Speaker 1: for president, you both said you would renegotiate NAFTA. You didn't.

1211
01:15:57,200 --> 01:16:01,600
Speaker 1: He did. Nancy Pelosi said that the USMCA, which the

1212
01:16:01,600 --> 01:16:04,800
Speaker 1: President Trump signed into law, is a quote victory for

1213
01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:08,720
Speaker 1: America's workers. Does he deserve credit for that? No? I

1214
01:16:08,760 --> 01:16:10,800
Speaker 1: think you remember he didn't. He wasn't the one to

1215
01:16:10,880 --> 01:16:14,840
Speaker 1: push the particular one the past. The House amended the bill,

1216
01:16:15,520 --> 01:16:18,800
Speaker 1: amended the bill so he couldn't. Not always a big

1217
01:16:18,840 --> 01:16:22,200
Speaker 1: deal though. Here's what he amended. He was given Pharma

1218
01:16:22,760 --> 01:16:26,479
Speaker 1: a way out, giving him a gigantic break, just like

1219
01:16:26,640 --> 01:16:30,759
Speaker 1: he's doing now with Pharma. If you they're building plants

1220
01:16:30,800 --> 01:16:34,280
Speaker 1: overseas and any tax breaks for it, That's what it

1221
01:16:34,360 --> 01:16:36,080
Speaker 1: was about with him, and they said, no, no, we're

1222
01:16:36,120 --> 01:16:38,360
Speaker 1: not going to do that. We're not gonna be We

1223
01:16:38,439 --> 01:16:41,400
Speaker 1: negotiated NAFTA and you didn't. It's the point. I mean,

1224
01:16:41,720 --> 01:16:44,120
Speaker 1: because we had a Republican Congress who wouldn't go along

1225
01:16:44,160 --> 01:16:48,519
Speaker 1: with us for renegotiating it, doesn't he deserve some credit

1226
01:16:48,560 --> 01:16:51,760
Speaker 1: for that. It's better the USMCA is better than NAFTA.

1227
01:16:51,960 --> 01:16:57,760
Speaker 1: It is better than NAFTA. Fake tapper occasionally asks a

1228
01:16:57,840 --> 01:17:01,360
Speaker 1: real question that I don't know why, oh my gosh,

1229
01:17:01,560 --> 01:17:04,920
Speaker 1: so much journalism. I mean, yeah, I ask a real question.

1230
01:17:04,960 --> 01:17:08,920
Speaker 1: Sometimes it's true, this guy's still a jerk. Uh and

1231
01:17:09,200 --> 01:17:12,800
Speaker 1: and it's still a Democrat operative. But anyway, and notice

1232
01:17:12,880 --> 01:17:16,720
Speaker 1: it's not a tough question, it's an obvious question. But

1233
01:17:16,880 --> 01:17:22,880
Speaker 1: that for Biden is that's a huge change from what

1234
01:17:23,000 --> 01:17:26,400
Speaker 1: he normally gets. Here's the way, here's the way reporters

1235
01:17:26,439 --> 01:17:29,639
Speaker 1: think they are making sure this guy is ready, making

1236
01:17:29,680 --> 01:17:32,840
Speaker 1: sure he is battle tested to be the president of

1237
01:17:32,880 --> 01:17:36,439
Speaker 1: the United States at the young age of seventy eight.

1238
01:17:37,479 --> 01:17:41,679
Speaker 1: Here he's play four. Really, your strength is in traveling

1239
01:17:41,680 --> 01:17:44,400
Speaker 1: around the country and connecting with people. You can't do

1240
01:17:44,520 --> 01:17:47,479
Speaker 1: any of that right now, mister Vice president? Does does

1241
01:17:47,520 --> 01:17:51,479
Speaker 1: that worry you? Why about all of this? When you

1242
01:17:51,560 --> 01:17:54,360
Speaker 1: hear these remarks, suckers, losers, what does it tell you

1243
01:17:54,360 --> 01:17:59,599
Speaker 1: about President Trump's soul? What's your take on the Republican

1244
01:17:59,640 --> 01:18:02,280
Speaker 1: commit and so far? I think wearing a mask projects

1245
01:18:02,439 --> 01:18:04,960
Speaker 1: strength or weakness. You think the President of the United

1246
01:18:05,000 --> 01:18:07,479
Speaker 1: States is rooting for the violence because he thinks it

1247
01:18:07,479 --> 01:18:10,360
Speaker 1: helps him politically. You think he's actually rooting for violence.

1248
01:18:10,439 --> 01:18:13,160
Speaker 1: I wonder if you worry that this kind of language

1249
01:18:13,200 --> 01:18:15,600
Speaker 1: that comes from the President of the United States but

1250
01:18:15,720 --> 01:18:18,479
Speaker 1: deter some Americans who are tuning into him to not

1251
01:18:18,560 --> 01:18:20,600
Speaker 1: wear masks. How concerned are you that they're going to

1252
01:18:20,680 --> 01:18:26,320
Speaker 1: rush something out even before election day? Really hard hitting

1253
01:18:26,360 --> 01:18:29,800
Speaker 1: stuff there, right, really difficult. Oh my gosh, are you

1254
01:18:29,880 --> 01:18:32,120
Speaker 1: concerned that you're so much better than Trump? And like

1255
01:18:32,200 --> 01:18:36,439
Speaker 1: he's such an evil monster. I'm sure he is concerned

1256
01:18:36,439 --> 01:18:39,760
Speaker 1: about that, folks. Sure that keeps him up all the time.

1257
01:18:41,800 --> 01:18:46,000
Speaker 1: If this guy becomes president, it really does make a

1258
01:18:46,040 --> 01:18:50,439
Speaker 1: mockery of our whole system. It really does make a

1259
01:18:50,479 --> 01:18:53,080
Speaker 1: mockery of it all. It's amazing that here we are

1260
01:18:53,120 --> 01:18:55,920
Speaker 1: and this is the person that we have in charge. Oh.

1261
01:18:55,960 --> 01:18:59,559
Speaker 1: You know, you know what, Democrats don't care about you,

1262
01:19:01,160 --> 01:19:08,120
Speaker 1: you because right now they're blocking the COVID relief package

1263
01:19:08,200 --> 01:19:12,280
Speaker 1: that would be very substantial. The bill as it stands

1264
01:19:12,320 --> 01:19:15,200
Speaker 1: right now, the Republicans would pass three hundred dollar weekly

1265
01:19:15,240 --> 01:19:18,280
Speaker 1: unemployment subsidy, one hundred and five billion for schools, twenty

1266
01:19:18,280 --> 01:19:20,960
Speaker 1: billion for farmers, ten billion for the US Postal Service,

1267
01:19:21,000 --> 01:19:24,280
Speaker 1: ten billion for childcare assistants, forty seven billion for vaccines

1268
01:19:24,280 --> 01:19:27,800
Speaker 1: and testing, two hundred and fifty eight billion for the

1269
01:19:27,840 --> 01:19:31,519
Speaker 1: Paycheck Protection Program, which, as you know, helped small businesses out,

1270
01:19:31,680 --> 01:19:34,200
Speaker 1: gives them the forgivable loans to pay people that they

1271
01:19:34,200 --> 01:19:38,880
Speaker 1: can't keep on staff right now. And what do you

1272
01:19:39,000 --> 01:19:46,559
Speaker 1: hear from the Democrats over this? Nope, not enough, not enough, unacceptable.

1273
01:19:46,920 --> 01:19:50,080
Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell understands what's going on here, Mitchell cocaine, Mitchaine,

1274
01:19:50,120 --> 01:19:54,360
Speaker 1: playing no games, play eleven. Well, the President supports while

1275
01:19:54,400 --> 01:19:57,800
Speaker 1: we're trying to do, he's behind us. He would like

1276
01:19:58,240 --> 01:20:03,479
Speaker 1: to tackle these challenges that are clearly necessary to be challenged,

1277
01:20:04,280 --> 01:20:07,679
Speaker 1: be tackled, and should be done on a bipartisan basis,

1278
01:20:08,200 --> 01:20:12,200
Speaker 1: and needs to be done right now. It makes you

1279
01:20:12,240 --> 01:20:16,120
Speaker 1: believe they really don't want to do another proposal. They

1280
01:20:16,160 --> 01:20:18,719
Speaker 1: want to wait till left the election and play games

1281
01:20:18,720 --> 01:20:22,040
Speaker 1: with this. What they passed in the House months ago

1282
01:20:22,160 --> 01:20:24,920
Speaker 1: is a three tray and dollar wish list of liberal

1283
01:20:24,960 --> 01:20:27,920
Speaker 1: items including tax cuts for rich people in New York

1284
01:20:27,920 --> 01:20:32,400
Speaker 1: and California. Really, that has nothing to do with COVID nineteen.

1285
01:20:34,120 --> 01:20:40,000
Speaker 1: Nothing to do with COVID nineteen has been the case

1286
01:20:40,040 --> 01:20:42,960
Speaker 1: with so many of these other games. The Democrats have

1287
01:20:43,080 --> 01:20:46,439
Speaker 1: played nothing to do with COVID nineteen, but they don't

1288
01:20:46,479 --> 01:20:48,880
Speaker 1: care that people are suffering and that bad things are

1289
01:20:48,880 --> 01:20:54,160
Speaker 1: happening for them. Oh, speaking of playing games, pretty smark.

1290
01:20:54,160 --> 01:20:55,880
Speaker 1: I don't know if that was my smoothest transition. But

1291
01:20:55,920 --> 01:20:58,559
Speaker 1: did you watch into the NFL last night? Of course

1292
01:20:58,560 --> 01:21:03,839
Speaker 1: they did, so did you see any of the social

1293
01:21:03,880 --> 01:21:06,519
Speaker 1: justice shenanigans that I'm hearing about here? Because I did

1294
01:21:06,560 --> 01:21:10,200
Speaker 1: not watch it, I wouldn't call it all shenanigans. So

1295
01:21:10,400 --> 01:21:13,920
Speaker 1: I'll explain exactly what happened to you. The Texans didn't

1296
01:21:13,920 --> 01:21:16,719
Speaker 1: come out of the locker room until after the national anthem,

1297
01:21:16,800 --> 01:21:19,879
Speaker 1: their choice, so they didn't really do anything. The chiefs

1298
01:21:20,120 --> 01:21:22,560
Speaker 1: almost all stood. So this fifty three members of the

1299
01:21:22,640 --> 01:21:26,800
Speaker 1: roster one player decided to kneel, and then afterwards they

1300
01:21:26,800 --> 01:21:29,280
Speaker 1: decided to come together in the middle of the field.

1301
01:21:29,280 --> 01:21:31,200
Speaker 1: Is just do a moment of silence, lock arms in

1302
01:21:31,200 --> 01:21:33,040
Speaker 1: a moment of unity, is what they called it. And

1303
01:21:33,120 --> 01:21:37,040
Speaker 1: the fans booed. So that was interesting. I mean, you

1304
01:21:37,080 --> 01:21:39,040
Speaker 1: don't want them to kneel from the national anthem, they don't,

1305
01:21:39,040 --> 01:21:40,519
Speaker 1: and then you boo them. I thought that was a

1306
01:21:40,560 --> 01:21:44,320
Speaker 1: little bit poor taste. They're gonna use their platform to

1307
01:21:44,439 --> 01:21:47,800
Speaker 1: try and push the social justice thing no matter what

1308
01:21:47,840 --> 01:21:50,320
Speaker 1: you'd do. So if you don't want them to kneel, fine,

1309
01:21:50,840 --> 01:21:53,240
Speaker 1: they didn't kneel. One player did, but for the most

1310
01:21:53,280 --> 01:21:56,360
Speaker 1: part they didn't kneel. Why you booing them afterwards? I

1311
01:21:56,439 --> 01:21:57,920
Speaker 1: just think you can't have it both ways. You know

1312
01:21:57,960 --> 01:22:01,479
Speaker 1: they're gonna do it. You paid money to go see them,

1313
01:22:01,520 --> 01:22:04,720
Speaker 1: and then you pooh them when they did what you

1314
01:22:04,840 --> 01:22:07,400
Speaker 1: what exactly what you didn't want them to do. You

1315
01:22:07,439 --> 01:22:09,439
Speaker 1: didn't want them to kneel, they didn't kneel, and then

1316
01:22:09,479 --> 01:22:11,479
Speaker 1: you still boo them. I thought that was in port taste.

1317
01:22:11,560 --> 01:22:14,000
Speaker 1: So here we go. Daily Mail headline, NFL fans boo

1318
01:22:14,080 --> 01:22:17,599
Speaker 1: a moment of silence for BLM, the Houston Texans walk

1319
01:22:17,680 --> 01:22:20,719
Speaker 1: out during the anthem, and a Kansas City chief takes

1320
01:22:20,720 --> 01:22:23,519
Speaker 1: a knee in front of seventeen thousand supporters at the

1321
01:22:23,560 --> 01:22:26,120
Speaker 1: first game of the new seasons. Okay, so one Kansas

1322
01:22:26,160 --> 01:22:27,880
Speaker 1: City I think you actually got all that run down

1323
01:22:27,960 --> 01:22:30,160
Speaker 1: just from the top of your head. Very very impressive. Sir.

1324
01:22:30,439 --> 01:22:34,000
Speaker 1: One Kansas City chief took a knee the Texans. Will

1325
01:22:34,040 --> 01:22:36,519
Speaker 1: they walk out during the anthem? Does that mean so

1326
01:22:36,560 --> 01:22:38,639
Speaker 1: they went into locker room while the anthem was played

1327
01:22:38,640 --> 01:22:40,760
Speaker 1: and then came out. No, no no, no, I think they

1328
01:22:40,800 --> 01:22:43,200
Speaker 1: did their normal pregame warmups. I mean you usually both

1329
01:22:43,200 --> 01:22:44,800
Speaker 1: teams go back to the locker room and then come

1330
01:22:44,800 --> 01:22:47,240
Speaker 1: out right before the anthem. They did not come out

1331
01:22:47,320 --> 01:22:53,000
Speaker 1: until after the anthem. Okay, I mean people are still

1332
01:22:53,080 --> 01:22:55,800
Speaker 1: going to react to that as as being just you know,

1333
01:22:55,920 --> 01:22:58,160
Speaker 1: look where I think we're heading is they're just going

1334
01:22:58,200 --> 01:23:00,720
Speaker 1: to get rid of anthems at games because trying to

1335
01:23:00,760 --> 01:23:03,880
Speaker 1: tie patriotism into sports in this way, at least at

1336
01:23:03,880 --> 01:23:07,000
Speaker 1: the NFL and the NBA, there are people who are

1337
01:23:07,040 --> 01:23:09,200
Speaker 1: not going to take kindly to players who are multi

1338
01:23:09,240 --> 01:23:13,200
Speaker 1: millionaire celebrities, you know, multi millionaires in their twenties, mostly

1339
01:23:13,240 --> 01:23:17,639
Speaker 1: by the way, in twenties and thirties, taking kindly to them,

1340
01:23:17,640 --> 01:23:20,519
Speaker 1: thinking that the country needs to hear their social justice messaging.

1341
01:23:20,720 --> 01:23:22,599
Speaker 1: So I think we're just gonna ahead to They're gonna

1342
01:23:22,600 --> 01:23:24,040
Speaker 1: have to get rid of the anthem before the game

1343
01:23:24,320 --> 01:23:26,600
Speaker 1: in some of these places because otherwise, because even like

1344
01:23:26,640 --> 01:23:29,120
Speaker 1: what you're saying is true, they're they're changing it so

1345
01:23:29,160 --> 01:23:31,600
Speaker 1: that okay, well, we're not gonna kneelder the anthem, but

1346
01:23:31,600 --> 01:23:33,680
Speaker 1: we're gonna if you do anything during the anthem other

1347
01:23:33,680 --> 01:23:36,559
Speaker 1: than stand there and you know, put your hand over

1348
01:23:36,560 --> 01:23:38,360
Speaker 1: your heart. A lot of Americans are going to be

1349
01:23:39,200 --> 01:23:41,200
Speaker 1: upset about that. I don't think that's going to change.

1350
01:23:41,920 --> 01:23:44,519
Speaker 1: I think I don't mind this thing in the locker room.

1351
01:23:44,760 --> 01:23:48,040
Speaker 1: That's they're just kind of they're letting the anthem play

1352
01:23:48,520 --> 01:23:52,120
Speaker 1: and they're not putting any protests in the middle of

1353
01:23:52,160 --> 01:23:54,639
Speaker 1: the anthem. I'm okay with that, and I think everyone

1354
01:23:54,680 --> 01:23:56,960
Speaker 1: should be. They want to get their voices or let

1355
01:23:57,000 --> 01:24:01,400
Speaker 1: them and watch sports. We'll see if I think they

1356
01:24:01,479 --> 01:24:04,519
Speaker 1: what the ratings were, they were down like double digits,

1357
01:24:04,520 --> 01:24:06,360
Speaker 1: but not huge on the first night from what they

1358
01:24:06,360 --> 01:24:09,280
Speaker 1: would be. But it's COVID, it's weird. The world's crazy,

1359
01:24:09,320 --> 01:24:12,200
Speaker 1: So it wasn't that great of a game, to be honest. Yeah, Well,

1360
01:24:12,200 --> 01:24:15,200
Speaker 1: I try to watch the US Open tennis, and you

1361
01:24:15,280 --> 01:24:17,759
Speaker 1: know it's not the same without without fans in the stands.

1362
01:24:17,760 --> 01:24:19,760
Speaker 1: I gotta say, I never you know, you never thought

1363
01:24:19,800 --> 01:24:22,559
Speaker 1: you'd run this experiment in this way, But there's an

1364
01:24:22,640 --> 01:24:25,680
Speaker 1: energy that transfers even to your home viewing experience of

1365
01:24:25,760 --> 01:24:29,599
Speaker 1: having all those fans there. You know, it's not the same.

1366
01:24:29,800 --> 01:24:32,280
Speaker 1: It's just not the same. And it's weird actually having

1367
01:24:32,360 --> 01:24:34,880
Speaker 1: some fans socially distance in the stands, because now it

1368
01:24:34,920 --> 01:24:36,840
Speaker 1: looks like it almost feels like you're like a high

1369
01:24:36,840 --> 01:24:39,519
Speaker 1: school game, and like there's not that many people there.

1370
01:24:39,520 --> 01:24:42,080
Speaker 1: You know, I was surprised with how much noise they

1371
01:24:42,120 --> 01:24:45,240
Speaker 1: made in Kansas City with only like fifteen thousand people there,

1372
01:24:45,280 --> 01:24:47,439
Speaker 1: and that building could hold one hundred. I bet they were.

1373
01:24:47,600 --> 01:24:49,160
Speaker 1: Do you think they were doing some you know juice

1374
01:24:49,160 --> 01:24:50,880
Speaker 1: in the audio a little bit for the people at home.

1375
01:24:51,240 --> 01:24:53,839
Speaker 1: They say they weren't. They say they will in the

1376
01:24:54,040 --> 01:24:56,160
Speaker 1: like in New York, you're not allowed to have any fans,

1377
01:24:56,160 --> 01:24:57,920
Speaker 1: so they're gonna pump in crowd noise for that. They

1378
01:24:57,920 --> 01:25:00,439
Speaker 1: said they did not because there were fans there. Hmm.

1379
01:25:00,920 --> 01:25:04,880
Speaker 1: Very well. Thanks for listening to the Bus Show podcasts.

1382
01:25:17,960 --> 01:25:32,280
Speaker 1: for roll call, all right, I have a couple of

1383
01:25:32,360 --> 01:25:34,000
Speaker 1: quick stories that I wanted to touch on because I

1384
01:25:34,080 --> 01:25:35,280
Speaker 1: mentioned them at the top of the show and I

1385
01:25:35,280 --> 01:25:38,040
Speaker 1: didn't get to them before. What is that Sweden? Before

1386
01:25:38,040 --> 01:25:42,519
Speaker 1: we get to roll call, Sweden has shown their model works.

1387
01:25:42,880 --> 01:25:45,639
Speaker 1: They're at basically the end of the pandemic in terms

1388
01:25:45,640 --> 01:25:48,599
Speaker 1: of infections, very very few infections, very very few deaths,

1389
01:25:49,640 --> 01:25:52,200
Speaker 1: and now they're they're doing better than all their neighbors,

1390
01:25:52,240 --> 01:25:55,760
Speaker 1: including Norway right now, and they never shut down. They

1391
01:25:55,920 --> 01:25:58,679
Speaker 1: The head of the Swedish Health Authority says that wearing

1392
01:25:58,720 --> 01:26:01,559
Speaker 1: masks is kind of a useless thing to do. Sweden's

1393
01:26:01,760 --> 01:26:04,920
Speaker 1: basically threw it and did better than a lot of countries.

1394
01:26:04,920 --> 01:26:10,080
Speaker 1: Are rent better than UK, Italy, Spain, no lockdowns, never lockdown.

1395
01:26:10,479 --> 01:26:13,400
Speaker 1: So someone needs to explain to me why lockdowns are

1396
01:26:13,400 --> 01:26:17,599
Speaker 1: so great or so useful, I should say, when Sweden

1397
01:26:17,680 --> 01:26:19,800
Speaker 1: never did it and got better outcomes than countries that

1398
01:26:19,840 --> 01:26:24,479
Speaker 1: did extreme, including Italy extreme lockdowns. Okay, so there's that.

1399
01:26:24,479 --> 01:26:26,000
Speaker 1: Because we used to talking about Sweden and there was

1400
01:26:26,000 --> 01:26:28,559
Speaker 1: this whole Sweden is running an experiment in mass death.

1401
01:26:28,800 --> 01:26:32,040
Speaker 1: Sweden is so much worse off these other countries. Nope,

1402
01:26:32,720 --> 01:26:36,880
Speaker 1: wasn't it wasn't true, and it were interested in the truth,

1403
01:26:37,840 --> 01:26:41,559
Speaker 1: then we should pay attention to what actually happened there

1404
01:26:41,560 --> 01:26:45,679
Speaker 1: and follow up on this. And then also Lulu Lemon,

1405
01:26:45,760 --> 01:26:48,160
Speaker 1: I just thought this was so funny. Lulu Lemon, I

1406
01:26:48,200 --> 01:26:50,160
Speaker 1: would say the snow Prints is a big fan of

1407
01:26:50,200 --> 01:26:53,880
Speaker 1: Lulu Lemon, and I'm a fan of her. In Lulu Lemon,

1408
01:26:53,960 --> 01:26:56,320
Speaker 1: I think the clothing looks looks very nice on ladies,

1409
01:26:56,960 --> 01:26:59,760
Speaker 1: So I'm not a Lulu Lemon hater. It's like a

1410
01:27:00,040 --> 01:27:03,479
Speaker 1: yoga activewear company. It's worth billions of dollars now, it's

1411
01:27:03,520 --> 01:27:05,920
Speaker 1: become a huge You know, if you're a mom in

1412
01:27:05,920 --> 01:27:09,240
Speaker 1: the suburbs that likes to do hot yoga, you probably

1413
01:27:09,280 --> 01:27:10,920

1414
01:27:10,920 --> 01:27:12,840
Speaker 1: what I mean. Producer Mark, do you own any Lulu Lemon?

1415
01:27:13,160 --> 01:27:16,559
Speaker 1: I do not, nor does my wife. I think. Have

1416
01:27:16,640 --> 01:27:19,640
Speaker 1: you ever done yoga? I actually have once in a

1417
01:27:19,640 --> 01:27:23,760
Speaker 1: class in college. I hated it. I was miserable. If

1418
01:27:24,120 --> 01:27:27,400
Speaker 1: if there was video, I would pay for this. Oh

1419
01:27:27,439 --> 01:27:30,240
Speaker 1: there probably is somewhere. I had friends, is it? You

1420
01:27:30,240 --> 01:27:31,880
Speaker 1: know that it wouldn't be just I've done yoga a

01:27:39,240 --> 01:27:44,200
Speaker 1: neck hurts. You know, I'm not flexible, but Producer Mark,

01:27:46,760 --> 01:27:48,680
Speaker 1: But you know you gotta unleash your chi, man, you

01:27:48,720 --> 01:27:51,679
Speaker 1: gotta center your chi. I'm good with where my chee

01:27:51,720 --> 01:27:54,600
Speaker 1: is right now. My cheese is gonna be on the

1428
01:27:54,640 --> 01:27:58,160
Speaker 1: couch this weekend, eating some Chinese food, watching some Netflix.

1429
01:27:58,520 --> 01:28:01,360
Speaker 1: I'm watching the football on Sunday? Am I cheating anywhere else?

1430
01:28:02,080 --> 01:28:04,800
Speaker 1: Any good games on Sunday? I usually just put on

1431
01:28:04,880 --> 01:28:07,559
Speaker 1: red Zone. You're a red zone guy. My brothers are

1432
01:28:07,600 --> 01:28:10,120
Speaker 1: red zone. Love of my brothers. They love America, they

1433
01:28:10,120 --> 01:28:13,839
Speaker 1: love professional sports football. They're the normal sex. I'm honestly

1434
01:28:13,920 --> 01:28:16,439
Speaker 1: a little shot. You knew what red zone was? Oh, well,

1435
01:28:16,479 --> 01:28:21,040
Speaker 1: because of them. They're actually doing a virtual draft tonight

1436
01:28:21,160 --> 01:28:23,759
Speaker 1: for their fantasy league. They did it the day after

1437
01:28:24,560 --> 01:28:27,439
Speaker 1: the season started, or maybe it was last night they

1438
01:28:27,479 --> 01:28:29,280
Speaker 1: did it. No, I think they did it this this

1439
01:28:29,360 --> 01:28:31,679
Speaker 1: season open night, so then they already did whatever. I see.

1440
01:28:31,680 --> 01:28:32,960
Speaker 1: I don't even know, but I'm saying they did a

1441
01:28:33,000 --> 01:28:37,000
Speaker 1: virtual draft. I'm guessing you're not invited into the league. No, no,

1442
01:28:37,080 --> 01:28:39,519
Speaker 1: because I don't want If I can't get my top

1443
01:28:39,600 --> 01:28:41,800
Speaker 1: NFL picked on matting Lee, then I don't want any

1444
01:28:41,840 --> 01:28:44,920
Speaker 1: part of this. Oh my god, I know so Oh

1445
01:28:44,960 --> 01:28:48,320
Speaker 1: but Lulu Lemon, back to lu Lemon. They sell yoga

1446
01:28:48,320 --> 01:28:50,519
Speaker 1: pants for about some of you going to spit your

1447
01:28:50,560 --> 01:28:55,200
Speaker 1: coffee out. They sell yoga pants for about a hundred

1448
01:28:55,360 --> 01:28:57,800
Speaker 1: and twenty dollars one hundred and forty dollars a pair,

1449
01:28:58,479 --> 01:29:01,639
Speaker 1: But they want to teach class is online for Lula Lemon.

1450
01:29:02,680 --> 01:29:08,679
Speaker 1: You know, customers about how to resist capitalism. That's awesome.

1451
01:29:09,000 --> 01:29:11,880
Speaker 1: Sell your yoga pants for one hundred and twenty dollars,

1452
01:29:11,880 --> 01:29:16,760
Speaker 1: but hashtag resist capitalism, as if anybody didn't already need

1453
01:29:17,000 --> 01:29:19,760
Speaker 1: or as if anybody didn't already know that. So much

1454
01:29:19,880 --> 01:29:24,400
Speaker 1: of this pseudo Marxist claptrap crap is just about people

1455
01:29:24,600 --> 01:29:27,479
Speaker 1: feeling cool and hip and not thinking through any any

1456
01:29:27,520 --> 01:29:32,200
Speaker 1: of this at all. But I think yoga pants are

1457
01:29:32,240 --> 01:29:34,400
Speaker 1: a great innovation for lady. I think they're great, very

1458
01:29:34,400 --> 01:29:38,240
Speaker 1: comfortable and also, ladies, you're gonna hear this from me,

1459
01:29:38,360 --> 01:29:42,000
Speaker 1: and it's very important. Were comfortable shoes, don't I know?

1460
01:29:42,040 --> 01:29:44,400
Speaker 1: There's all this noise, there's all this social pressure out

1461
01:29:44,439 --> 01:29:46,599
Speaker 1: there to tell you. This is one of the few

1462
01:29:46,640 --> 01:29:49,519
Speaker 1: things I disagree with my main man, Jesse Kelly on

1463
01:29:49,960 --> 01:29:52,439
Speaker 1: because he's all, if you wear flats, you've given up.

1464
01:29:52,479 --> 01:29:55,919
Speaker 1: I think that's not true. We disagree on this. Heels

1465
01:29:56,160 --> 01:30:00,320
Speaker 1: for you know, for weddings, you know, special occasions, big

1466
01:30:00,360 --> 01:30:04,600
Speaker 1: party heels are for dress up in my opinion, for

1467
01:30:04,640 --> 01:30:07,639
Speaker 1: the late and now. Look, I don't wear heels. Truth,

1468
01:30:07,760 --> 01:30:11,320
Speaker 1: I do not fact check true. But I know what

1469
01:30:11,360 --> 01:30:13,599
Speaker 1: comfortable shoes are all about. I know that heels are

1470
01:30:13,600 --> 01:30:16,439
Speaker 1: not comfortable. High heels. I'm talking about high heels not

1471
01:30:16,520 --> 01:30:21,320
Speaker 1: comfortable and it drains your energy. You know. My parents

1472
01:30:21,320 --> 01:30:23,040
Speaker 1: have passed this on to me because they believe in

1473
01:30:23,080 --> 01:30:26,040
Speaker 1: comfortable footwear. If there's anything you can take from this show,

1474
01:30:26,040 --> 01:30:28,200
Speaker 1: if there's like one little oh no, two lessons from

1475
01:30:28,240 --> 01:30:33,960
Speaker 1: this show, never talk to the FBI and wear comfortable shoes.

1476
01:30:34,920 --> 01:30:37,400
Speaker 1: Those are important. That's worth listening to me three hours

1477
01:30:37,400 --> 01:30:39,320
Speaker 1: a day for the next ten years or for the

1478
01:30:39,360 --> 01:30:41,680
Speaker 1: past seven years. Whatever. That's worth it right there. If

1479
01:30:41,680 --> 01:30:44,920
Speaker 1: you take those two things from me and never start

1480
01:30:44,920 --> 01:30:47,720
Speaker 1: a land war in Asia. I think those are which

1481
01:30:47,760 --> 01:30:49,679
Speaker 1: I borrow from the Princess Bride I think is where

1482
01:30:49,680 --> 01:30:53,479
Speaker 1: that little quip comes from. But no, really, the comfortable

1483
01:30:53,520 --> 01:30:56,840
Speaker 1: shoe thing is very, very important, and so some of

1484
01:30:56,880 --> 01:30:58,479
Speaker 1: you have seen me even doing TV hits, I'll be

1485
01:30:58,520 --> 01:31:00,720
Speaker 1: wearing boat shoes, not a fashion stay minutes because of

1486
01:31:00,800 --> 01:31:02,599
Speaker 1: the most comfortable things I can wear. I just wear

1487
01:31:02,640 --> 01:31:06,519
Speaker 1: the most comfortable shoes I can. I'm telling you, you're saying, Buck,

1488
01:31:06,560 --> 01:31:08,080
Speaker 1: why are you going to rant about this? It will

1489
01:31:08,200 --> 01:31:11,280
Speaker 1: change your life. I know some of you guys like

1490
01:31:11,280 --> 01:31:13,640
Speaker 1: to wear those lace up You know, you look the

1491
01:31:13,680 --> 01:31:16,240
Speaker 1: dress shoes, they're all shiny, and you look all spiffy.

1492
01:31:16,640 --> 01:31:20,080
Speaker 1: Maybe for a job interview, wedding, funeral, whatever, not that

1493
01:31:20,120 --> 01:31:21,639
Speaker 1: anyone really, I guess you just wear black. I don't

1494
01:31:21,640 --> 01:31:25,840
Speaker 1: think it looks spiffy at a funeral. But that's I'm

1495
01:31:25,840 --> 01:31:28,519
Speaker 1: telling you where whatever is most comfortable on your feet

1496
01:31:28,560 --> 01:31:31,679
Speaker 1: that you can get away with without it being crocs,

1497
01:31:32,320 --> 01:31:34,960

Speaker 1: First up here, it was a Tom Hanks submarine movie

1508
01:32:08,080 --> 01:32:12,040
Speaker 1: released on Apple TV. It was terrible. I love all

1509
01:32:12,120 --> 01:32:18,160
Speaker 1: war movies, not this one. Really bad. Wow, Bruce and Mark,

1510
01:32:18,160 --> 01:32:20,000
Speaker 1: have you seen this one? I have not. I haven't

1511
01:32:20,000 --> 01:32:24,400
Speaker 1: gotten Apple TV yet on my TV. My TV's too old,

1512
01:32:24,400 --> 01:32:26,800
Speaker 1: so I guess I gotta get a new TV. Um.

1513
01:32:26,960 --> 01:32:32,760
Speaker 1: But yeah, the submarine movie, you know, it's how can

1514
01:32:32,800 --> 01:32:35,120
Speaker 1: you make a bad submarine movie? That's what I don't understand.

Speaker 1: That's gonna be real. Soon. I'm actually gonna be Uncle Buck,

1525
01:33:13,320 --> 01:33:16,560

1526
01:33:16,880 --> 01:33:20,559
Speaker 1: character who makes them like a garbage pancake or whatever.

1527
01:33:20,600 --> 01:33:22,800
Speaker 1: Do you remember that movie? Of course you kind of

1528
01:33:22,800 --> 01:33:25,320
Speaker 1: have the physique of Uncle Buck now too. That's cold,

1529
01:33:25,320 --> 01:33:27,080
Speaker 1: all right, It's one thing to call me fat thor

1530
01:33:27,200 --> 01:33:30,920
Speaker 1: it's another thing. You know, I have feelings too, Producer Mark,

1531
01:33:32,560 --> 01:33:34,639
Speaker 1: I'm gonna start working. They opened the gym in my building.

1532

Speaker 1: I'm actually going this weekend. I'm gonna do deadlifts and

1533
01:33:37,479 --> 01:33:39,760
Speaker 1: it's gonna be amazing because I'm gonna be deadlifting like

01:33:39,840 --> 01:33:44,600
Speaker 1: thirty pounds, like oh my back hurts, Gonna take it slots.

1535
01:33:45,040 --> 01:33:47,280
Speaker 1: It would be like me and yoga class all over again.

1536
01:33:47,400 --> 01:33:49,559
Speaker 1: Just take it slow at first. That's what I'm gonna

1537
01:33:49,560 --> 01:33:52,680
Speaker 1: do again too. Yeah. Otherwise I'm gonna be doing the

1538
01:33:52,800 --> 01:33:55,280
Speaker 1: radio show and like traction or whatever, I'm gonna have like,

1539
01:33:55,520 --> 01:33:57,680
Speaker 1: you know, a full body cast on what were you

1540
01:33:57,720 --> 01:34:00,519
Speaker 1: doing home? Man? I was trying to bench like forty

1541
01:34:00,520 --> 01:34:04,920
Speaker 1: pounds and I just threw out my shoulder. So yeah, yeah,

1542
01:34:05,120 --> 01:34:08,120
Speaker 1: there you go. I will tell you there was a time.

1543
01:34:08,200 --> 01:34:09,920
Speaker 1: There was a time when the Buckster could throw around

1544
01:34:09,920 --> 01:34:11,920
Speaker 1: some pretty serious weight, and it wasn't that long ago.

1545
01:34:11,960 --> 01:34:13,960
Speaker 1: But now he just has carry it in some serious way,

1546
01:34:13,960 --> 01:34:16,360
Speaker 1: which is a different thing, all right, But I'm gonna

1547
01:34:16,360 --> 01:34:18,920
Speaker 1: get back into it fighting shape. Gotta do it. How

1548
01:34:19,000 --> 01:34:24,760
Speaker 1: to do it? James? Oh, So I was telling about

1549
01:34:24,760 --> 01:34:26,840
Speaker 1: my brothers. I keep going to James. So my brothers asked,

1550
01:34:26,880 --> 01:34:29,479
Speaker 1: what about best movies. I actually think Hacksaw Ridge is

1551
01:34:29,520 --> 01:34:31,160
Speaker 1: one of the best movies of the last ten years,

1552
01:34:31,840 --> 01:34:34,559
Speaker 1: which is a war movie. And I think that maybe

1553
01:34:34,640 --> 01:34:38,640
Speaker 1: in part because I thought that it was going to

1554
01:34:38,680 --> 01:34:41,880
Speaker 1: be corny, and I didn't even think it didn't win

1555
01:34:41,960 --> 01:34:45,559
Speaker 1: me over until it got a little bit deeper into

1556
01:34:45,600 --> 01:34:48,800
Speaker 1: the movie, and then I was like, wow, I was wrong.

1557
01:34:48,840 --> 01:34:51,400
Speaker 1: This is actually a really good movie. And when you

1558
01:34:51,560 --> 01:34:54,559
Speaker 1: learn the true story about that guy and how why

1559
01:34:54,600 --> 01:34:58,400
Speaker 1: he got the Medal of Honor, it's amazing. It's amazing,

1560
01:34:58,520 --> 01:35:01,519
Speaker 1: unlike Midway, which was on last night. My brothers and

1561
01:35:01,560 --> 01:35:03,120
Speaker 1: are gonna watch it. And then it reminded me that

1562
01:35:03,160 --> 01:35:06,240
Speaker 1: I said that they took an incredibly important pivotal battle

1563
01:35:06,240 --> 01:35:11,799
Speaker 1: in history and made it meh. It's a meh movie.

1564
01:35:11,880 --> 01:35:14,599
Speaker 1: It's like a B minus C plus kind of a movie.

1565
01:35:15,360 --> 01:35:18,759
Speaker 1: Richard Jewell excellent speaking about not talking to the FBI.

1566
01:35:18,960 --> 01:35:23,280
Speaker 1: Watched that one on the plane. Richard Jewel excellent movie,

1567
01:35:23,880 --> 01:35:29,080
Speaker 1: highly highly recommend And it's a reminder of the FBI.

1568
01:35:29,160 --> 01:35:31,000
Speaker 1: I know there's some FBI agents to listen to this

1569
01:35:31,040 --> 01:35:33,360
Speaker 1: show and thank you for locking up you know, cartel

1570
01:35:33,439 --> 01:35:36,840
Speaker 1: members and child molesters and other important things. But when

1571
01:35:36,960 --> 01:35:41,439
Speaker 1: investigations get politicized and the political pressure, you know, the

1572
01:35:41,560 --> 01:35:46,120
Speaker 1: big FBI cannot be trusted. Can't trust him, can't trust him.

1573
01:35:47,720 --> 01:35:50,559
Speaker 1: Let me just look at Comey and struck in page

1574
01:35:50,560 --> 01:35:53,160
Speaker 1: and we've seen this now we Did I not talk

1575
01:35:53,200 --> 01:35:57,639
Speaker 1: today about the wiping of the phones? I just realized

1576
01:35:57,640 --> 01:35:59,479
Speaker 1: I didn't talk about the pruser mark. Did I talk

1577
01:35:59,479 --> 01:36:04,439
Speaker 1: about the phone wiping? I don't think so. Oh boy, well,

1578
01:36:04,520 --> 01:36:06,599
Speaker 1: let me do that right now. Sorry, we're gonna we're

1579
01:36:06,600 --> 01:36:08,400
Speaker 1: gonna put a pause in the roll call. So here's

1580
01:36:08,400 --> 01:36:13,120
Speaker 1: what happened. Judicial Watch came out and said that they

1581
01:36:13,560 --> 01:36:15,720
Speaker 1: got a document that proved that I think it was

1582
01:36:15,760 --> 01:36:21,599
Speaker 1: twenty seven phones from the Muller investigation either lost, wiped, clean,

1583
01:36:21,920 --> 01:36:25,439
Speaker 1: or just destroyed beyond repair from people working on the

1584
01:36:25,520 --> 01:36:29,240
Speaker 1: Muller probe. Okay, and as we all, the Mueller was

1585
01:36:29,280 --> 01:36:31,439
Speaker 1: like a figurehead, wasn't even really running it. The guy

1586
01:36:31,439 --> 01:36:33,600
Speaker 1: had deteriorated. It's really gross what they did. It was

1587
01:36:33,640 --> 01:36:36,160
Speaker 1: like it was like elder abuse to pretend that guy

1588
01:36:36,200 --> 01:36:38,840
Speaker 1: was running the probe, just like it would be like

1589
01:36:38,880 --> 01:36:42,599
Speaker 1: elder abuse if Joe Biden were made president. But if

1590
01:36:42,640 --> 01:36:51,400
Speaker 1: you believe, if you believe that over two dozen highly

1591
01:36:51,720 --> 01:36:57,400
Speaker 1: trained federal investigators in the most politically sensitive investigation of

1592
01:36:57,520 --> 01:37:01,160
Speaker 1: our lifetime, if you believe it they acted dentally typed

1593
01:37:01,160 --> 01:37:04,639
Speaker 1: in the wrong code on their iPhone ten times, causing

1594
01:37:04,680 --> 01:37:08,679
Speaker 1: it to entirely wipe itself clean, you probably also believe

1595
01:37:08,960 --> 01:37:12,760
Speaker 1: that Jesse Smollett was attacked by MAGA hat wearers at

1596
01:37:12,800 --> 01:37:15,840
Speaker 1: one am on a freezing cold Chicago night and they

1597
01:37:15,880 --> 01:37:18,680
Speaker 1: just happened to have a noose handy. You know, if

1598
01:37:18,680 --> 01:37:21,519
Speaker 1: you believe one, you probably believe the other. And if

1599
01:37:21,520 --> 01:37:24,320
Speaker 1: you believe them both, you are a dumbass. Right, we

1600
01:37:24,400 --> 01:37:29,320
Speaker 1: know this. There is absolutely no way that those phones

1601
01:37:29,920 --> 01:37:36,880
Speaker 1: were wiped by accident, not plausible. It's not wiped, loss cracked.

1602
01:37:37,240 --> 01:37:41,400
Speaker 1: This was destroying comms after the fact. This is destruction

1603
01:37:41,479 --> 01:37:44,679
Speaker 1: of evidence in order to prevent the American people from

1604
01:37:44,720 --> 01:37:48,280
Speaker 1: seeing what kind of political targeting was really going on here,

1605
01:37:48,640 --> 01:37:52,640
Speaker 1: What was really happening as a result of all of this.

1606
01:37:54,640 --> 01:37:57,720
Speaker 1: Now we'll never know. Just like I've been telling you,

1607
01:37:57,760 --> 01:37:59,920
Speaker 1: don't expect anybody important to go to jail because the

1608
01:38:00,040 --> 01:38:02,240
Speaker 1: Durham probe, I was right about that. We're gonna, I mean,

1609
01:38:02,360 --> 01:38:05,080
Speaker 1: we don't know him right yet, but you're gonna eventually.

1610
01:38:05,080 --> 01:38:07,040
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say to you, up, I told you, guys,

1611
01:38:07,080 --> 01:38:11,400
Speaker 1: the Durham Probe didn't didn't really do anything. And it's

1612
01:38:11,439 --> 01:38:13,679
Speaker 1: not the fault of Barr. It's not the fault of Durham.

1613
01:38:13,720 --> 01:38:17,240
Speaker 1: It's not even the DJ it's the system. Because as

1614
01:38:17,320 --> 01:38:21,040
Speaker 1: long as oh I didn't make that mistake on purpose

1615
01:38:21,120 --> 01:38:24,200
Speaker 1: for political reasons, I'm just the dumbest person on earth.

1616
01:38:24,360 --> 01:38:26,720
Speaker 1: As long as that's an excuse for any bureaucrat who

1617
01:38:26,720 --> 01:38:29,800
Speaker 1: works with the federal government, there will be no accountability.

1618
01:38:30,200 --> 01:38:32,840
Speaker 1: And trust me, my friends, that is the excuse they

1619
01:38:32,880 --> 01:38:38,040
Speaker 1: will continue to fall back on. You're in the freedom, Hud.

1620
01:38:38,479 --> 01:38:44,840
Speaker 1: This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. All right, now

1621
01:38:44,880 --> 01:38:51,200
Speaker 1: back into the roll call James So Trump told Bob Woodward,

1622
01:38:51,320 --> 01:38:55,000
Speaker 1: a reporter, that COVID was bad, and Woodward, a reporter,

1623
01:38:55,600 --> 01:39:01,320
Speaker 1: hid the information instead of reporting it, perhaps letting thousands

1624
01:39:01,400 --> 01:39:04,800
Speaker 1: die so he could later use it to hurt Trump's reelection.

1625
01:39:05,400 --> 01:39:08,240
Speaker 1: Nice Shields, high Buck Protuy ser Mark. I think we

1626
01:39:08,280 --> 01:39:13,920
Speaker 1: actually have Trump agreeing with exactly that point from our

1627
01:39:13,920 --> 01:39:17,320
Speaker 1: friend Andy. Can we play that If Bob Woodward third

1628
01:39:17,800 --> 01:39:20,960
Speaker 1: what I said was bad, then he should have immediately

1629
01:39:21,240 --> 01:39:24,080
Speaker 1: right after I said it, gone out to the authorities

1630
01:39:24,080 --> 01:39:26,400
Speaker 1: so they can prepare and let him know. But he

1631
01:39:26,439 --> 01:39:28,800
Speaker 1: didn't think it was bad, and he said he didn't

1632
01:39:28,800 --> 01:39:31,360
Speaker 1: think it was bad. He actually said he didn't think

1633
01:39:31,360 --> 01:39:33,400
Speaker 1: it was bad. The only one that said it was

1634
01:39:33,439 --> 01:39:35,160
Speaker 1: bad or I think so it was bad were the

1635
01:39:35,240 --> 01:39:37,599
Speaker 1: fake news media because they take it and they try

1636
01:39:37,600 --> 01:39:40,520
Speaker 1: and put it in a certain way. If Bob Woodward

1637
01:39:41,080 --> 01:39:44,800
Speaker 1: thought it was bad, then he should have immediately gone

1638
01:39:44,800 --> 01:39:47,519
Speaker 1: out publicly, not wait four months. You know, he's had

1639
01:39:47,560 --> 01:39:49,880
Speaker 1: that statement for four months, maybe five months. He's had

1640
01:39:49,920 --> 01:39:53,880
Speaker 1: it for a long time. Why didn't he Why didn't

1641
01:39:53,880 --> 01:39:57,080
Speaker 1: he go forward and say that, well, because it wasn't

1642
01:39:57,120 --> 01:39:59,439
Speaker 1: really that terrible, Because it wasn't terrible at all because

1643
01:39:59,439 --> 01:40:01,240
Speaker 1: he understood at the time with the President said, but

1644
01:40:01,240 --> 01:40:02,599
Speaker 1: he also knew that he could use it to sell

1645
01:40:02,640 --> 01:40:06,680
Speaker 1: books later on and be a hero to the resistance,

1646
01:40:06,800 --> 01:40:11,040
Speaker 1: and that's what really mattered to him. Andy. Next up here, Buck,
