00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,720
Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of The Clay Travison buck Sexton

2
00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:08,720
Speaker 1: Show podcast. Welcome in Tuesday edition Clay Travis buck Sexton Show.

3
00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:13,399
Speaker 1: Appreciate all of you hanging out with us. We have

4
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:17,000
Speaker 1: got so much to dive into, but we begin with

5
00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:22,919
Speaker 1: the pain of Joe Biden's continued failure in economic policies.

6
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 1: Remember when James Carville said in nineteen ninety two, it's

7
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:30,800
Speaker 1: the economy stupid. I would say to everyone out there

8
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 1: that is gearing up for the mid terms, everybody who

9
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:40,320
Speaker 1: is in competitive races, it's the economy stupid. New numbers

10
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:45,440
Speaker 1: out on inflation and they are not good, not good

11
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:52,240
Speaker 1: at all, worse than expectations, still over eight percent. Stock

12
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 1: market has responded in an awful way. The Dow down

13
00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 1: as we began the show around six hundred and fifth

14
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:04,240
Speaker 1: points S and P five hundred down over two percent.

15
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 1: These are massive drops. The expectation was inflation was not

16
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 1: going to continue to be the boogeyman. Economists bought into

17
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 1: some of the lies being peddled by Joe Biden. A

18
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 1: lot of you did not, because you see the impact

19
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:25,320
Speaker 1: of inflation every day in your real world. Many people

20
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:29,760
Speaker 1: have just used gas prices as a proxy of inflation. Unfortunately,

21
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 1: there are many things that are wrong with this current economy.

22
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:40,759
Speaker 1: From the house GOP account, gas utilities up thirty three percent,

23
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:45,839
Speaker 1: electricity up just shy of sixteen percent, food at home

24
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 1: up thirteen point five percent, transportation costs up eleven point

25
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 1: three percent, new cars up ten percent, food away from

26
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 1: home up eight percent, used cars up big, Your cost

27
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 1: of your rent, your shelter up massively. Buck, this is

28
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 1: not going away. And as if to prove that he

29
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 1: is the most tone deaf and awful president of any

30
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 1: of our lives, you can't even make this up. Today,

31
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 1: at three o'clock Eastern, Joe Biden has scheduled a celebration

32
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 1: for the Inflation Reduction Act. I say that sarcastically because that, unfortunately,

33
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 1: is the name of the massive federal spending bill which

34
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:37,360
Speaker 1: every independent economic analyst says will either do nothing to

35
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:41,919
Speaker 1: inflation or actually make it worse. And here we are

36
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 1: still sitting at forty year worst average inflation, and it's

37
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 1: not getting any better. And Buck, I think it's fair

38
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:54,080
Speaker 1: to say that October, the last number that we will

39
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 1: see before the midterms, is still going to be around

40
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 1: eight percent. Forty year inflation highs are not going away.

41
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,680
Speaker 1: They aren't declining rapidly. The Fed is going to have

42
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 1: to raise interest rates, probably at least another three quarter points,

43
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 1: maybe multiple times before the end of the year. This

44
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: Biden inflation albatross is going to be longer lasting. Remember

45
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: all the lies they sold there's going to be transitory,

46
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 1: that it wasn't going to be very sustainable, that it

47
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 1: was Putin's gas hike, all these different things, Putin's inflation hike,

48
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 1: that's not true. Biden's been a disaster on the economy,

49
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 1: and today we got unfortunate news that it's not getting

50
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 1: better anytime soon. Everybody's also seen that the FED, which

51
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 1: is supposed to be a non political, a political instrument

52
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 1: of monetary policy. Of course it's political. I mean, think

53
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 1: about all the government institutions that we have been told

54
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 1: in recent years, it's just the experts doing the right stuff,

55
00:03:55,960 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 1: doing what the expertise guides them toward. CDs. See that's

56
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 1: a joke. FBI not looking so good. EPA a bunch

57
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 1: of leftist lunatics. I know. The FED is something that

58
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 1: people think of as a bunch of nerds sitting around

59
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 1: with calculators deciding the what the rate of inflation should be.

60
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 1: But obviously, Clay, they're making political calculations right now based

61
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,839
Speaker 1: upon whether or not they're going to let us do

62
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,480
Speaker 1: what let the economy do what it clearly wants to do,

63
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 1: which is recede as in a recession, as in slowing

64
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 1: down the velocity of the money that has been splashing

65
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:39,280
Speaker 1: all over the country and all over the world. They

66
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:41,719
Speaker 1: don't want to do it. Nobody wants to be the

67
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 1: one right now to pull off the band aid. We've

68
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,560
Speaker 1: all been there, right, We all know you got that

69
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 1: scrape on the knee and looks kind of gross under there,

70
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 1: and you go, oh, this could feel just a little bit,

71
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 1: just a little bit. Jerome Palell needs to rip that

72
00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 1: thing off. He needs to rip that band aid off.

73
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: And it's gonna suck. And that's the part of it

74
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,039
Speaker 1: that slows it down for or that's a part of

75
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 1: it that makes them slow it down in this way

76
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,599
Speaker 1: where we're just going a little bit by little bit.

77
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 1: We all know what has to happen here. We spent

78
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 1: as a country trillions of dollars because of COVID lockdowns.

79
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:23,359
Speaker 1: We're thirty one trillion soon in debt. People are raising

80
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 1: the alarms by this. Remember the Tea Party, Clay, but

81
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 1: we should go back and check what was the national

82
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 1: debt when the Tea Party ten minutes was be tricking

83
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 1: out till it's trillion. We're a thirty trillion right now.

84
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 1: We're gonna be at thirty one trillion real soon. And

85
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,159
Speaker 1: is it a surprise to anybody that it turns out

86
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,159
Speaker 1: you can't just help people stay home. We'll send you

87
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 1: a check in the mill. Everybody gets checks. We basically

88
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,640
Speaker 1: tried not only modern monetary theory, but universal basic income,

89
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 1: and we saw, sure enough, it is a massive, a

90
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:59,719
Speaker 1: massive failure from the perspective of a healthy economy. So

91
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 1: right now we're in this position where Democrats, you know,

92
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 1: Jerome pal obviously and the Democrats more generally are looking

93
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 1: at this and they're just saying, we're gonna do it little,

94
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 1: piece by piece, and I hope that people don't even

95
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 1: realize that the frog is boiling in the pot. They're

96
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 1: gonna turn it up degree by degree. Here's a couple

97
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 1: of other points that are out there that I think

98
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:24,359
Speaker 1: are worth making. This is from the Washington Post, so

99
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:28,520
Speaker 1: it's not some right wing rag that's sharing this food

100
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,840
Speaker 1: at home, up thirteen point five percent in the past year,

101
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 1: according to Washington Post, the largest increase since nineteen seventy nine.

102
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: Rent is up six point seven percent in the past year,

103
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 1: the largest increase since nineteen eighty six, Electricity is up

104
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:49,280
Speaker 1: fifteen point eight percent, the largest increase since nineteen eighty one,

105
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 1: and health insurance costs are up twenty four point three percent,

106
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 1: the largest ever on record. So, if you're out there

107
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 1: and Democrats are trying to sell well, gas prices have

108
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,680
Speaker 1: declined fourteen weeks in a row. First of all, they're

109
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 1: still really high, but all of these other things are

110
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: actually increasing at massive rates such that we're still running

111
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,440
Speaker 1: at over eight percent inflation. And one more thing buck

112
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 1: that I think is key here. We've also got a

113
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 1: situation which is not getting enough attention, which is that

114
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:30,080
Speaker 1: everybody out there, everybody out there right now is dealing

115
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 1: with real costs. And what I mean by real cost

116
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 1: real wages have fallen every month since Joe Biden passed

117
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: his one point nine trillion dollars stimulus package, which really

118
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 1: put inflation on steroids here, and that means that everybody

119
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 1: out there is actually working for less money because your

120
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 1: wages are increasing at a slower rate than the cost

121
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:56,240
Speaker 1: of everything that you have to pay for. And here's

122
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 1: where I think we have to we have to hammer

123
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:03,960
Speaker 1: home why the political vulnerability of the Democrats should be.

124
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 1: It should be extreme on this issue, and it should

125
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:11,320
Speaker 1: be very apparent to everybody the things, because we all

126
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 1: know what their game is right now. One, it's been

127
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,120
Speaker 1: bad for a while, so maybe people are getting used

128
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 1: to high inflation. This has been my concern for the

129
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 1: last six months on inflation, or certainly since you may

130
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 1: June period, is that eventually people go, well, I guess

131
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 1: inflation is just the way it is. It's lingering at

132
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 1: a very high level. This is a worse than expected report,

133
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,319
Speaker 1: which is always so interesting. You know, notice that they

134
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 1: expected it to be better, or the economist said, but

135
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 1: it wasn't. But clay the vulnerability as I see it,

136
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 1: Forbiden the Democrats, they're gonna say, oh, but look what

137
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 1: Trump spent. Look at the debt that grew for multiple

138
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 1: presidents before us. It's not fair to put this all

139
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:52,200
Speaker 1: on us. There is some truth to that. Because we

140
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:54,560
Speaker 1: live in reality, right we are dealing in the world

141
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 1: of reality. There are some truth to that statement, but

142
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,200
Speaker 1: there would always be truth to that statement with a president, right,

143
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 1: there's a national debt, you're inheriting it, you're dealing with it.

144
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 1: The part that I think everyone needs to understand is

145
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,079
Speaker 1: what you just got into a second ago with a

146
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,839
Speaker 1: one point nine trillion dollar spending package, totally party line

147
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,840
Speaker 1: Democrat at the start of Biden's presidency, and now the

148
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:18,200
Speaker 1: Inflation Reduction Act that's actually going to make inflation worse.

149
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 1: All of the responses, all the things Democrats want to

150
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 1: do will make inflation worse. That's the part of it.

151
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 1: So they've made it worse. They can argue about how

152
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 1: much of it is their fault, but the reason why

153
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:36,439
Speaker 1: they need to lose power in elected office is because

154
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 1: all of their impulses in response to the numbers you're

155
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:42,320
Speaker 1: putting out everything is I got an idea, Let's spend

156
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 1: more money. They're out of their minds. This is the

157
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,360
Speaker 1: only thing. Oh, in tax you more. That's their view

158
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 1: of how to deal with inflation. Spend even more money,

159
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 1: and then try to squeeze small businesses in particular for

160
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 1: more tax dollars. Yeah, and what this becomes, unfortunately a

161
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,440
Speaker 1: truism and if you're out there and you're saying, Okay,

162
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 1: well we're in a big hole. How do we get

163
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 1: out of it? Well, you don't get out of it

164
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 1: by digging a deeper ditch. And again they're going to

165
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 1: brag today in one of the most ill timed, awkward,

166
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:18,559
Speaker 1: tone deaf political moves that I can remember in modern memory. Buck,

167
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:22,600
Speaker 1: they're hosting a celebration at the White House today for

168
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 1: what they're calling the Inflation Reduction Act. And it's unfortunate.

169
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 1: Each of those seats in Georgia probably cost the American

170
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:39,199
Speaker 1: taxpayer a trillion dollars or more. Right, because if Republicans

171
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 1: had won either of those seats in the special election

172
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 1: in Georgia in January of twenty one, leave aside the

173
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:50,400
Speaker 1: election of twenty twenty and just focus on January of

174
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 1: twenty one, the runoffs in Georgia, I think there's a

175
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:58,319
Speaker 1: strong likelihood that we would have probably not passed the

176
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,560
Speaker 1: one point nine trillion, certainly would not have passed this

177
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:06,800
Speaker 1: eight hundred billion Inflation Reduction Act, probably don't pass anywhere

178
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 1: near as much infrastructure. In other words, that was each

179
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 1: of those seats cost every American taxpayer around a trillion dollars.

180
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:19,480
Speaker 1: And this is why I'm wild to think about when

181
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 1: we talk about the margins and the size of this

182
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 1: audience that we're speaking to everyday nationwide, this audience that

183
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:30,959
Speaker 1: rush built over decades. We think about the impact that

184
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 1: all of you listening to this can have, and this audience,

185
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 1: if you are listening to this, has the ability to

186
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 1: change the outcome in your state and for the country

187
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 1: when it comes to the Senate, when it comes to

188
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:48,079
Speaker 1: the House. Don't don't be lulled into some sense of oh,

189
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 1: but the numbers are so big and it's such a

190
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:54,319
Speaker 1: large country, and somebody else will show up and vote Georgia.

191
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,720
Speaker 1: What was the final tally. I mean, we're talking about

192
00:11:56,760 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 1: ten thousand votes, give or take Arizona. You look at

193
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:04,199
Speaker 1: the final tally Pennsylvania. It was about forty thousand or

194
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:08,720
Speaker 1: so in Pennsylvania. These are tiny margins. There are more

195
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 1: people than that listening in each of those states. Right now.

196
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 1: You have to remember, folks, that the media narrative right

197
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 1: now is going to be trying to convince you to

198
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 1: be demoralized. And also there's so much cynicism. I mean,

199
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:28,080
Speaker 1: Clay to call it the Inflation Reduction Act, is essentially

200
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,520
Speaker 1: Democrats saying we think the media, which is ninety five

201
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,960
Speaker 1: percent in the news media Democrat dominated, is so in

202
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,440
Speaker 1: the tank for us. And we also the Democrats believe

203
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 1: that voters are so inept that they can just call

204
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 1: something the Inflation Reduction Act and people will vote for them, saying, oh,

205
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna deal with inflation. It's really deeply cynical.

206
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 1: Imagine the audacity of having a celebration today on the

207
00:12:56,360 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 1: day where we're setting records in the cost increases in

208
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,320
Speaker 1: many different products out there. I mean, you've never had

209
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:09,240
Speaker 1: to pay more for groceries at home eating, going all

210
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 1: the way back to nineteen seventy nine, and many of

211
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:13,680
Speaker 1: our listeners, Buck, you weren't even born. I was a

212
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,560
Speaker 1: baby the last time things cost this much. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

213
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:20,199
Speaker 1: Bucks a millennial. I was born in seventy nine. Clay

214
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:23,439
Speaker 1: was riding chariots to school. It was a long time ago.

215
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:26,520
Speaker 1: This is how crazy it is. I saw Jim Jordan,

216
00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 1: our buddy, just tweeted, I couldn't even drive a car

217
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 1: the last time that grocery prices were this high, And

218
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 1: they're going to celebrate that today at the White House

219
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,319
Speaker 1: and it's not getting better anytime soon. That's the other

220
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 1: part of this. Everybody who knows anything about the economy

221
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:43,280
Speaker 1: is telling everyone who will listen. Inflation is going to

222
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,719
Speaker 1: remain stubborn. Jobs are probably going to start getting hit

223
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,760
Speaker 1: gunning start getting cut soon. And it's just a question

224
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:54,080
Speaker 1: I can they expand the correction as in the recession

225
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,680
Speaker 1: so much that people don't even really notice what's going

226
00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:01,679
Speaker 1: on politically, even though they're noticing it in their paycheck,

227
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:05,080
Speaker 1: in their workplace, in their four oh one case. We'll

228
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,720
Speaker 1: come back into more on this in the second. Plus

229
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 1: we're talking about those midterms. I don't know if there's

230
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,599
Speaker 1: anything clay that somebody could do as a politician that

231
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 1: would make me seek their defeat more than being in

232
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:21,320
Speaker 1: favor of vaccine passports. If I have the chance to

233
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 1: ouse somebody or to block somebody from office who was

234
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 1: a vaccine passport fan, I will lay down in traffic

235
00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 1: for that one down in Florida. Somebody's making made some

236
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 1: noise about that. We'll talk about it in a second. Here.

237
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 1: Challenging our own rhndescentis madness. There's just one cell phone

238

Speaker 1: how expensive everything is right now, right, groceries, gas, a

245
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:03,240

258
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:05,080
Speaker 1: of the Clay and Buck show gets going? Right now?

259
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 1: We are weeks from the mid terms, and man, it

260
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,440
Speaker 1: is interesting to see how this is all playing out.

261
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 1: Democrats that I've been in touch with recently or that

262
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 1: I've seen trying to explain the Fetterman fiasco are really

263
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 1: running out of room to maneuver. It's not clear that

264
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 1: he's going to debate doctor Oz. We've been discussing that

265
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 1: Oz is very sharp, very smart, very polished. Fetterman shows

266
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:38,040
Speaker 1: up and when he does speak, you think that it's

267
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:41,960
Speaker 1: like a robot with the batteries fading in real time,

268
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 1: which is obviously not confidence inspiring to anybody who thinks

269
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:49,400
Speaker 1: that a United States Senator should be somebody who you

270
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:54,920
Speaker 1: know has full ability, health and control of his faculties.

271
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 1: But there's a there's a theory. I mean, Clay, it's

272
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 1: getting out of control. It's very obvious with Fetterman what's

273
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 1: going on here? Yeah, and I think this is significant.

274
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 1: Even left leaning media is now starting to talk about Fetterman.

275
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 1: I'm glad that you brought it up because it reminded

276
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,679
Speaker 1: me the Washington Post editorial. Did you see this that

277
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:20,560
Speaker 1: came out yesterday after our show? John Fetterman needs to

278
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:24,399
Speaker 1: debate more than once for the US Senate. This is

279
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,879
Speaker 1: from the Washington Post editorial board right after our show

280
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:31,399
Speaker 1: finished yesterday. They one of their top editors for the

281
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 1: newspaper said, people need to be able to see the Fetterman,

282
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 1: and this editorial's pretty pretty crushing. The Fetterman campaign squandered

283
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:45,520
Speaker 1: credibility by concealing for the public for two days after

284
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 1: his stroke. They haven't been forthcoming with his medical history.

285
00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:52,240
Speaker 1: It's not good enough he's asking I'm reading from their

286
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,720
Speaker 1: from their editorial, which is I think a sign of

287
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,919
Speaker 1: a lot of momentum for Oz. He's asking voters for

288
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:01,159
Speaker 1: a six year contract without giving them enough information to

289
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:03,919
Speaker 1: make sound judgments about whether he's up for such a

290
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:08,680
Speaker 1: demanding job. We need. The Washington Post said, full disclosure

291
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:12,479
Speaker 1: of his health records, and he should debate mister Oz

292
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 1: before voters start casting their ballots, and that this must happen. So,

293
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,119
Speaker 1: I mean, the fact that the Washington Post is calling

294
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:23,479
Speaker 1: him out is a pretty significant detail. Well, these are

295
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:27,919
Speaker 1: lagging indicators from regime media, right when it becomes too obvious,

296
00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:31,679
Speaker 1: when it is no longer possible for them with a

297
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 1: straight face without destroying whatever shred of credibility they have

298
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:39,680
Speaker 1: that they're a fact based, reality based organization. When it's

299
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,920
Speaker 1: no longer defensible, then they start to write these editorials.

300
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 1: We're at that place with Fetterman. But but my thesis here, Clay,

301
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:50,679
Speaker 1: is this is a broader theme. There are a number

302
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 1: of candidates who are really just trying to trying to

303
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 1: do the Biden in the basement routine, hoping that regime

304
00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:02,000
Speaker 1: media the narratives of Trump up in the insurrection, and hey,

305
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 1: inflation is not really that bad, it's just really bad,

306
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 1: and all these things we're hearing it. You know that

307
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,159
Speaker 1: the tops decision, the women are going to rush to

308
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,480
Speaker 1: the polls. It's not even worth Republicans voting anymore. All

309
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 1: these things that are i think at some level meant

310
00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 1: to do Republican enthusiasm suppression and to turn out the

311
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 1: left wing base and avoid the fact that the candidates

312
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:27,960
Speaker 1: the Democrats are putting forward in a number of these

313
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 1: key races are just not good. And we talked about Fetterman,

314
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 1: which now and this is beyond doubt and that's this

315
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:39,440
Speaker 1: is a health that you mean, like, this is deep

316
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 1: cynicism that he stayed, he should suspend his campaign. This

317
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:45,000
Speaker 1: is what they're doing is gross. It's wrong that this

318
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:47,560
Speaker 1: guy is going to be the Democrat nominee from that state,

319
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,679
Speaker 1: because they're essentially hoping that they can get away with

320
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 1: an emperor has no closed situation there. Worth enough, it's

321
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 1: not with all the voters, but even in Arizona. Carry Lake,

322
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 1: who we both think is a future star of the GOP.

323
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 1: She put out this act because Katie Hobbs's basically saying

324
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:09,040
Speaker 1: I will not share a debate stage with Carrie Lake.

325
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:13,200
Speaker 1: Carrie is hitting back on this one. For the first

326
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 1: time in the history of our state, there will be

327
00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 1: no Clean Elections gubernatorial debate, bucking state tradition. My opponent,

328
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:23,119
Speaker 1: Katie Hobbs, has made it official she will not share

329
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:27,359
Speaker 1: a debate stage with me under any circumstance. Now, I'd

330
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 1: like to speak directly to you, Katie. You think this

331
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,679
Speaker 1: issue is going to go away, that Arizonas will just

332
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,719
Speaker 1: throw up their hands and say, oh, well, no debate

333
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:40,359
Speaker 1: this year. Well, you're sorely mistaken. I have asked the

334
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 1: Clean Elections Commission to extend the deadline for you to

335
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:48,800
Speaker 1: confirm your attendance to the day of the debate. Should

336
00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 1: you grow a spine between now in October twelfth, there

337
00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:54,840
Speaker 1: will be an empty chair waiting for you on the

338
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:58,399
Speaker 1: debate stage. This is what needs to happen. Remember how

339
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:00,880
Speaker 1: we said Republicans need to go on off, need to

340
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:04,200
Speaker 1: point out what their opponents, they have to force them

341
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 1: into the public eye. Because the game plan for Hobbs,

342
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:11,119
Speaker 1: for Fetterman, for you know, go down the list of

343
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,920
Speaker 1: all of them, for all of them is, oh, I'm

344
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 1: not like one of those crazy left wing gender transition

345
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 1: for twelve year old Democrats who's spending all the money

346
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:23,440
Speaker 1: and making your grocery prices and your gas prices go

347
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:27,359
Speaker 1: way up. I'm like a nice, moderate, normal Democrat. You know,

348
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 1: I'm not one of those. It's all a lie. And

349
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:33,600
Speaker 1: the game is to have the regime media at the

350
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 1: national level and then at the state level. Unfortunately, all

351
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,879
Speaker 1: the major state newspapers and all these places, you know,

352
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:45,680
Speaker 1: whether it's Pittsburgh at anywhere in Arizona, obviously Arizona, I

353
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 1: mean at Land, I'm thinking about Georgia. But the biggest,

354
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 1: the biggest newspapers in all these states are essentially carrying

355
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:56,199
Speaker 1: water for the Democrat candidates. Between that, CNN, the New

356
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 1: York Times. They think that that's how they win the election,

357
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 1: just have these candidates. It's that no one really gets

358
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:03,919
Speaker 1: to ask any questions too well. They're trying to hide,

359
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:08,160
Speaker 1: and I think it's significant not only for from radical

360
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:12,480
Speaker 1: propositions that they have a spouse, but how good is

361
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 1: Carrie Lake. I mean, she is such a stud I

362
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:20,159
Speaker 1: said last week that you know, guys, I know I

363
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,679
Speaker 1: love to gamble that I would like to go with

364
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 1: a parlay. I think Carry Lake is going to end

365
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 1: up winning comfortably in Arizona. She is just so smooth.

366
00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:36,200
Speaker 1: She's incredibly crisp, super talented at communication skills, and devastating

367
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,240
Speaker 1: when she said that the way she just dropped in

368
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 1: that grow a Spine line was so well done. I

369
00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:45,119
Speaker 1: think that herschel Walker's gonna win in Georgia. And I

370
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:47,440
Speaker 1: believe that doctor Oz is going to end up winning

371
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,440
Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania. If I could hit on those as a

372
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 1: parlay out there right now, I believe all three of

373
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:55,720
Speaker 1: those I don't believe, I know it. All three of

374
00:22:55,760 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 1: those candidates are considered gambling underdogs right now. If you

375
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,560
Speaker 1: look at the overall market place, you can gamble on

376
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:09,640
Speaker 1: American elections legally overseas, and so there's reliable markets there.

377
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:11,960
Speaker 1: I think all three of those underdogs are gonna win.

378
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:13,960
Speaker 1: That'd be a heck of a parlay pay. Anyway, I

379
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 1: think we should have legal we should we should have

380
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 1: legal political outcomes gambling in this country. We can sports.

381
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,480
Speaker 1: Why can't you do it on political outcomes? Because so

382
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 1: many of these pundits, man, these people that are, oh,

383
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 1: I know what's gonna happen. Yeah, let's see the record,

384
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, you know, I agree. It's not to

385
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 1: be a tough thing. When you did four years in

386
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 1: a row of sports gambling on TV, you can't run

387
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,200
Speaker 1: and hide from every pick you've ever made on a game.

388
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,479
Speaker 1: And it's tough, right. If you can get to fifty

389
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:44,680
Speaker 1: two point three percent in sports gambling, you're a stud.

390
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:46,919
Speaker 1: If you can get to fifty five percent, you end

391
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 1: up like Biff and Back to the Future. That means

392
00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 1: you lose forty five percent of the time. But it's

393
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 1: hard to beat the market in anything, right, hard to

394
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 1: beat the SMP five hundred. It's hard to beat consensus opinion.

395
00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 1: And and I just think all three of those candidates,

396
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 1: Carry Lake, doctor Oz and herschel Walker are being undervalued

397
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 1: right now. Can you tell me what the I don't

398
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,359
Speaker 1: mean right this second, But can we do a you know,

399
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 1: where to look for this. I'm wondering because my belief

400
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,880
Speaker 1: right now, my strong belief right now, is that Joe

401
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,920
Speaker 1: Biden is running. That I am more confident on than

402
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 1: most other predictions that I make. Joe Biden is going

403
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,639
Speaker 1: to run for reelection and Donald Trump is going to

404
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:26,639
Speaker 1: run against him, and that we're gonna have a replay

405
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 1: that is mine. You think I can, I can look up.

406
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 1: I will give you. I'll look it up during the

407
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:34,920
Speaker 1: commercial break. I will tell you what that prediction would

408
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:37,720
Speaker 1: pay to this exact day. If you were betting in

409
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:39,919
Speaker 1: England right now on that being, you can bet on

410
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,280
Speaker 1: the matchup of an election. You can bet on Biden

411
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 1: versus Trump, you know, part two. And that's a perfect

412
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:49,280
Speaker 1: and smooth transition here, Clay to the fixation that they

413
00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:53,280
Speaker 1: still have on Trump. Now, remember we talk about this

414
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 1: in the context of understanding that when the Libs, when

415
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:02,639
Speaker 1: the Democrats, when the Merrick Garland DOJ does this stuff.

416
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:05,639
Speaker 1: At some level, the process is the punishment for the

417
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,679
Speaker 1: people involved. So just getting the lawyers and having to

418
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:11,720
Speaker 1: deal with all this nonsense from the DJ about January sixth,

419
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:16,200
Speaker 1: that's part of it. Also, it's a distraction tactic away

420
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 1: from the wide open border. I mean, do you see

421
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,640
Speaker 1: you know your colleague at Fox, Bill Mulugion, he's got

422
00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:26,399
Speaker 1: this live video of people in all Camo with essentially

423
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:29,680
Speaker 1: rope ladders going over and I mean it's the border's

424
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,679
Speaker 1: wide open. Does an incredible job covering the border region.

425
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 1: I mean, he really does. It's crazy though, when you

426
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:37,399
Speaker 1: look at the numbers, when you start to actually so anyway,

427
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:39,480
Speaker 1: we'll talk more about the border, but that's wide open.

428
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,560
Speaker 1: All these things the economy, inflation, inflation numbers super bad.

429
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:44,720
Speaker 1: That's where the market got crushed by eight hundred plus

430
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:49,080
Speaker 1: points today. They want us talking about Trump. Now, that

431
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 1: is in some ways a distraction, but we also have

432
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:56,720
Speaker 1: to be prepared. I think this is politically the Bazuka

433
00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,200
Speaker 1: they think they have in their back pocket, so to speak.

434
00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 1: I think the Libs believe that if all else fails

435
00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,640
Speaker 1: to divert what we've been what I just talked about,

436
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:10,240
Speaker 1: where we're talking about the Trump Biden matchup that's coming,

437
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:12,720
Speaker 1: they want to muddy up the waters. They want to

438
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,960
Speaker 1: do something, and that's why we have to take seriously. Still,

439
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,199
Speaker 1: we're gonna have Julie Kelly joining us at the bottom

440
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:21,239
Speaker 1: of this hour the possibility they are lighting this up

441
00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 1: for some kind of a criminal prosecution of Donald Trump.

442
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:27,320
Speaker 1: Justice Department this was just a New York Times species

443
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 1: yesterday issued forty subpoenas in a week, expanding its January

444
00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:38,560
Speaker 1: sixth inquiry. They've also seized phones of two top Trump advisors.

445
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:43,240
Speaker 1: I mean, Clay, this could just be distraction to you know,

446
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 1: and we don't know if it is or not until

447
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:48,439
Speaker 1: we see if they prosecute or not. Right clearly, if

448
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:50,240
Speaker 1: they don't decide to prosecute, well then this is just

449
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:53,679
Speaker 1: a distraction. But I think when you're talking about dozens

450
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:57,000
Speaker 1: and dozens of subpoenas and doing all this, we'll ask

451
00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:00,840
Speaker 1: Julie about this. I don't think they've made the determination

452
00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 1: to prosecute Trump yet, but I don't think it's off

453
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:06,480
Speaker 1: the table yet. Based on what we're seeing right now,

454
00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:08,800
Speaker 1: what do you think I think they're going to try

455
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,880
Speaker 1: to find a way to charge Trump in twenty three

456
00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:15,480
Speaker 1: I'm not sure that it's going to be over these documents,

457
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:18,159
Speaker 1: although it could be. What I think is going on

458
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 1: right now is inflations at eight point three percent. They

459
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:27,399
Speaker 1: are trying desperately to make twenty twenty two about Donald Trump.

460
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:30,560
Speaker 1: And to me, twenty twenty three is all going to

461
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,520
Speaker 1: be about Donald Trump, because is he going to run?

462
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:37,400
Speaker 1: Who's going to run against him? How to Republicans respond

463
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 1: to the possibility that he might get indicted by his

464
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 1: chief running opposition, which I think actually helps Trump somewhat.

465
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 1: And this is my conspiracy theory, Buck, I think that

466
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:56,639
Speaker 1: Joe Biden owes his entire political past as president and

467
00:27:56,840 --> 00:28:01,240
Speaker 1: political future as a candidate to the that Donald Trump

468
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 1: has to run. Biden's only reason for existence at eighty

469
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:10,159
Speaker 1: two is Democrats believe they can drag him across the

470
00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 1: finish line. Donald Trump is the life vest that is

471
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:18,320
Speaker 1: keeping Joe Biden from sinking underwater and being abandoned by

472
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,960
Speaker 1: the Democrat Party. And so I think, just think about this,

473
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:26,919
Speaker 1: everything that Joe Biden can do to antagonize Trump, to

474
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 1: put Trump into the news. Another analogy for you, These

475
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:34,600
Speaker 1: are like two heavyweight boxers in the twelfth round. Either

476
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:38,160
Speaker 1: one of them would fall down if they weren't leaning

477
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:41,600
Speaker 1: on each other. And I'll give you the odds on

478
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 1: the potential for a rematch when we come back in

479
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:46,720
Speaker 1: this next segment, Buck, But I do find it to

480
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 1: be so intriguing the desperate ploys by the Biden administration

481
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:54,480
Speaker 1: and their allies in the Justice Department to make the

482
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:58,479
Speaker 1: mid term about Trump as opposed to the futility of Biden.

483
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:00,880
Speaker 1: You know, maybe we can help out some of these

484
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 1: Democrat candidates, making them a little less whimpy, a little

485
00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 1: more willing to go out there, stand up and say

486
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:10,760
Speaker 1: what they really believe, by sending them some chalk. I mean,

487
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 1: I think it actually might really help them. I think

488
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 1: that some of these candidates lack the edge, the advantage

489
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:19,440
Speaker 1: that you can get from chalk that'll give you the energy,

490
00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 1: the focus you need to go about your day to

491
00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:26,480
Speaker 1: day with maximum efficiency. So carry Lake says, Oh, they

492
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:29,080
Speaker 1: maybe she'll grow a spine. Maybe she actually just needs

493
00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 1: some chalk. It's possible because there's chalk for women too.

494
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:34,920
Speaker 1: But let's start with the chalk mill vitality stack. That's

495
00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 1: what you want to add to your regime every day.

496
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:41,000
Speaker 1: This is a set of all natural supplements meant to

497
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 1: give you the drive, energy and focus that will give

498
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 1: you added advantage to get it done. Imagine if chalk

499
00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 1: products were used by those in the Biden White House

500
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 1: right now, all of a sudden, you might have people

501
00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:54,360
Speaker 1: who actually got something done and we're willing to stand

502
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:57,560
Speaker 1: behind their work. Instead, you've got them cringing and running

503
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,240
Speaker 1: away play. We should just be good folks and send

504
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 1: them some free chalks they can try it out. That's

505
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:06,440
Speaker 1: why chalk improves everyday life in your routine. For men,

506
00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 1: your testosterone could be increasing by up to twenty percent.

507
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:13,480

Speaker 1: From the front Lines of Truth, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton,

525
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:20,400
Speaker 1: Welcome back to Clay and Buck Show. We've been talking

526
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:25,920
Speaker 1: about the flurry of subpoenas since two people in Trump's

527
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:29,360
Speaker 1: or bid having to do with January six they've seen

528
00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:34,360
Speaker 1: some cell phones. This has all been escalating recently. What

529
00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:38,920
Speaker 1: is going on here? What is the endgame? Well, we'll

530
00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:42,760
Speaker 1: get into it. Julie Kelly, senior writer American Greatness and

531
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 1: author of January six. How Democrats use the Capitol protest

532
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:50,320
Speaker 1: to launch a war on terror against the political right

533
00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:53,840
Speaker 1: is with us now, Julie. Good to have you back. Hey, guys,

534
00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:56,880
Speaker 1: thanks for heaving me on. So, Julie, we're trying to

535
00:31:56,960 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 1: always gauge how much this stuff is political theatrics and

536
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:08,040
Speaker 1: intimidation to affect the mid terms, to distract people from

537
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:11,720
Speaker 1: what's going on, and how much is actually preparation for

538
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:16,560
Speaker 1: a seismic legal maneuver by the Democrats. I mean a

539
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:18,920
Speaker 1: huge move, which is what going after a former president

540
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 1: would be. What do you make of the recent I

541
00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 1: think it was forty subpoenas that have been reported on

542
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 1: the last week or so that have gone out to

543
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,200
Speaker 1: Trump Allas. What's the game plan that they're running with here.

544
00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:34,040
Speaker 1: I think it's all of the above. I think it's

545
00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:37,880
Speaker 1: political theater. I think it's optics. I think that's what

546
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 1: the Mara Lago FBI raid on August eighth was was

547
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:46,960
Speaker 1: just optics to justify what eventually will be a criminal

548
00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:52,360
Speaker 1: indictment of Donald Trump. Obviously, this is an ongoing campaign

549
00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:56,800
Speaker 1: and crusade of terror and intimidation not just against Trump

550
00:32:56,840 --> 00:33:00,400
Speaker 1: and his allies and his advisors, but also of course

551
00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:03,640
Speaker 1: to nearly nine hundred Trump supporters who have so far

552
00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:07,760
Speaker 1: been arrested, had their homes rated, charged with ridiculous offenses

553
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 1: related to mostly non violent participation in the Capitol protests

554
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:15,160
Speaker 1: more than twenty months ago. So this is a multifaceted

555
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 1: operation that we've all talked about will lead to criminal

556
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 1: indictment of Donald Trump on at least a few charges,

557
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:28,720
Speaker 1: probably obstruction, conspiracy, tampering with evidence, witness witnesses, etc. And

558
00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 1: of course this is to influence the twenty twenty two election,

559
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:35,240
Speaker 1: because we see now how this timeline is all shaping

560
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:39,880
Speaker 1: up right before the beginning of November. So I don't

561
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:41,680
Speaker 1: think that they're going to charge I agree with you

562
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:44,440
Speaker 1: that there. I'm increasingly convinced that they're going to try

563
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:46,600
Speaker 1: to charge him with something. Julie and I think we

564
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:49,720
Speaker 1: had this conversation before. I don't think they're going to

565
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:52,120
Speaker 1: do it before November, but I think they want the

566
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:56,520
Speaker 1: drip drip drip of storylines to be coming out because really,

567
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,440
Speaker 1: Joe Biden can't run on his own record. He has

568
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:02,880
Speaker 1: to run against Trump because he's been a disaster. So

569
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:04,600
Speaker 1: let's I don't know if you agree. Do you think

570
00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:06,520
Speaker 1: it's going to happen in twenty twenty two or twenty

571
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:10,080
Speaker 1: twenty three that he might be indicted. I think it's

572
00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:12,080
Speaker 1: going to happen this year, and I think it's going

573
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:15,359
Speaker 1: to happen before the election. Oh you think before the election? Yeah?

574
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:18,640
Speaker 1: Expand on this, Well, first of all, they're not going

575
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:21,719
Speaker 1: to abide by any twenty day DJ rule to not

576
00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:24,719
Speaker 1: interfere in election. They never have and they certainly are

577
00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:28,400
Speaker 1: not going to in this case. My argument is because

578
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 1: they keep ratcheting this up higher and higher every single day.

579
00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:34,480
Speaker 1: So now we see it with this new flurry of subpoenas,

580
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:37,480
Speaker 1: I feel like there's a chance they might raid Badminster

581
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:41,239
Speaker 1: now amid the archive is claimed today that they don't

582
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:45,960
Speaker 1: think they have all the classified documents. If they don't

583
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:50,240
Speaker 1: indict Donald Trump, the Democrats will pay a political price

584
00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 1: in November. They can't keep stringing this along for the

585
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,279
Speaker 1: next four or five six months. They can't keep I

586
00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:59,040
Speaker 1: mean they can because their base is stupid and gullible

587
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:06,160
Speaker 1: and and vengeful. Tell us what you really think, Julie Nice. Well, look,

588
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:07,960
Speaker 1: you know, if it weren't for the base of the

589
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:10,840
Speaker 1: Democratic Party, this wouldn't be happening. These people have a

590
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:13,920
Speaker 1: blood lust in them, not just for Donald Trump, but

591
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:16,960
Speaker 1: for all of his voters as well. So we can't

592
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:20,000
Speaker 1: just make this about the leaders at the Democratic Party.

593
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:23,239
Speaker 1: This is about the base. We're speaking to, Julie Kelly.

594
00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:26,960
Speaker 1: We're speaking to Julie Kelly from American Great History as

595
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:31,359
Speaker 1: a senior writer. Julie, how should we think of Mara

596
00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:37,799
Speaker 1: LAGU documents, National Archives, upset classification stuff, YadA, YadA, plus

597
00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:42,799
Speaker 1: January six subpoenas flying is this just are they doing

598
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:45,399
Speaker 1: the all of the above approach at when it comes

599
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:49,120
Speaker 1: to legal abuse or do you see how these pieces

600
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:52,319
Speaker 1: specifically fit together? Right? So is this is this just

601
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:54,360
Speaker 1: like the shotgun to see what they hit or are

602
00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:57,880
Speaker 1: they actually taking Are these two things going together in

603
00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:01,279
Speaker 1: a way that's already apparent to you. I mean, I

604
00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:04,839
Speaker 1: think they're throwing everything at the board that they possibly can,

605
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:08,840
Speaker 1: and a lot of it sticks. Especially related to the

606
00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:12,560
Speaker 1: criminal prosecution and what's happening in this DC court system.

607
00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,279
Speaker 1: The DJ is getting away with everything that they want

608
00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:17,839
Speaker 1: to and knew. Have a DC grand jury that's signed

609
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:22,720
Speaker 1: off in at least six grand jury indictments for seditious conspiracy.

610
00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:25,759
Speaker 1: This is a sense so rare. No America has ever

611
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:28,120
Speaker 1: been convicted of it. But yet you have a DC

612
00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:31,719
Speaker 1: grand jury at the b hast to federal prosecutors indicting

613
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,879
Speaker 1: sixteen Americans who by the way, participated, did not sting

614
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:38,279
Speaker 1: violent on January sixth, So this is also look at

615
00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:40,839
Speaker 1: what's going to happen over the next month. So we

616
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:43,319
Speaker 1: have now these new subpoenas, we could potentially have a

617
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:46,600
Speaker 1: rate of Bedminster. We have a new January sixth committee

618
00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:49,640
Speaker 1: hearing scheduled for the end of September, two days after

619
00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:53,000
Speaker 1: the major trial of the Oathkeepers begins in Washington, DC.

620
00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:57,240
Speaker 1: The January sixth Committee has delayed the September thirteenth release

621
00:36:57,239 --> 00:37:02,200
Speaker 1: of their report until October of eighteen. October eighteenth. So

622
00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:05,640
Speaker 1: this is how all these parts are moving together, because

623
00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:08,520
Speaker 1: of course he had the Committee, working with DOJ, working

624
00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:11,759
Speaker 1: with the media to make this all happen. So this

625
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:15,040
Speaker 1: is going to hit a crescendo before November to interfere

626
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 1: in the election. But also I think to justify criminal

627
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:23,720
Speaker 1: charges against Donald Trump. Okay, so let's say you're right, Julie,

628
00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:27,799
Speaker 1: and Trump gets charged with crimes. What does that mean

629
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:32,080
Speaker 1: in your opinion for Trump as a potential twenty twenty

630
00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:35,279
Speaker 1: four nominee, Because I think that's actually the most fascinating

631
00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:39,360
Speaker 1: part about this. Do charges actually make him more likely

632
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:43,239
Speaker 1: to be the Republican nominee less likely? How does this

633
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,880
Speaker 1: play out as you consider what the primary season would

634
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:50,120
Speaker 1: look like during all of twenty twenty three and then

635
00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:55,520
Speaker 1: into the twenty twenty four primary elections themselves. I mean,

636
00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:59,279
Speaker 1: that is a great question. I really don't know politically

637
00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:02,279
Speaker 1: how it will with Republican voters. I know that there

638
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:05,959
Speaker 1: are people who after the mar La mar Lago raid,

639
00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:09,880
Speaker 1: have achieved a new level of outrage and even support

640
00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:11,919
Speaker 1: for Donald Trump. You know, if this is how he's

641
00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:14,319
Speaker 1: going to be treated, and by extension, all of us,

642
00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:19,000
Speaker 1: we'll walk through burning broken glass to make sure that

643
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:22,520
Speaker 1: he is elected in twenty twenty four. Of course, they

644
00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:24,800
Speaker 1: want to turn off the squishy Republican you know, this

645
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:28,280
Speaker 1: is called a sac suburban y moms who they're easily

646
00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:33,320
Speaker 1: turned off anyway. But how this will energize the base?

647
00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:36,600
Speaker 1: I feel like it already has and will continue to

648
00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:38,440
Speaker 1: do so. But look what they want with an indictment

649
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:41,879
Speaker 1: of Trump before the election. They want more violence. They

650
00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:45,719
Speaker 1: want the maga violence fascism that Joe Biden and the

651
00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:48,880
Speaker 1: regime says. They want that to become a self fulfilling prophecy.

652
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:52,680
Speaker 1: So that's what they're hoping. Another goal is of this

653
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:57,520
Speaker 1: indictment being announced before the election. Julie, is there any

654
00:38:57,560 --> 00:39:00,200
Speaker 1: of your calling so many shots? Yeah, I know, I'm

655
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:03,439
Speaker 1: trying to keep track of it all. Yeah. So if

656
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:08,440
Speaker 1: they go with the obstruction charge against Trump, what kind

657
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:11,800
Speaker 1: of what kind of penalties do we think they would

658
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:13,399
Speaker 1: go for? I mean, do you do you think that

659
00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:17,680
Speaker 1: is their goal to prosecute Trump so that he is

660
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:21,560
Speaker 1: just obviously there's going to be a political wounding effect

661
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:23,759
Speaker 1: of that. I've always the first president to ever be

662
00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:26,239
Speaker 1: indicted in this way. But do you think they would

663
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:27,960
Speaker 1: actually taken to the point where they'd say, no, we

664
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,200
Speaker 1: actually think he should serve six months, you know, we

665
00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:36,320
Speaker 1: actually want him to be incarcerated. Oh, absolutely, they definitely do. So.

666
00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:39,080
Speaker 1: I've said all along, I believe he will be charged

667
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:41,880
Speaker 1: at the very least with obstruction of an official proceeding.

668
00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:45,959
Speaker 1: You see the language directly pulled from that statute now

669
00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: included in the subpoenas, which has to do with anyone

670
00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:54,799
Speaker 1: who corruptly attempted to impede or obstruct an official proceeding.

671
00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:58,160
Speaker 1: That is language that's being used directly in the subpoenas.

672
00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:01,800
Speaker 1: So yes, look, it's an unviolent felony, but it's punishable

673
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:04,440
Speaker 1: by up to twenty years in prison. You have people

674
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:08,359
Speaker 1: who are going to jail for four, five, six years

675
00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:11,760
Speaker 1: after either plea deals or being convicted in a court

676
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:16,160
Speaker 1: on that nonviolent selony. So this will be sort of

677
00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:18,799
Speaker 1: a no brainer, not only for the prosecutions, but for

678
00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:23,440
Speaker 1: any DC jury because we already have several plea deals

679
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:26,520
Speaker 1: and convictions. Now. It is on appeal right now though

680
00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:31,520
Speaker 1: in the DC Appellate Court this particular charge. If for

681
00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:35,759
Speaker 1: some reason this court invalidates that count, it will have

682
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:39,920
Speaker 1: downstream ramifications, especially for the president for President Trump. But

683
00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:44,080
Speaker 1: there are other charges they can bring, conspiracy, tampering with evidence,

684
00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:47,799
Speaker 1: other kind of garbage offenses that they've come up with

685
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:52,719
Speaker 1: since January sixth. But yes, they will definitely seek jail

686
00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:55,880
Speaker 1: time for him, no doubt about it. Julie, We're going

687
00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:59,240
Speaker 1: to keep having you on. I love all the reporting

688

689
00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:04,480
Speaker 1: you're gonna look, you're gonna be one of the most

690
00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:09,560
Speaker 1: brilliant analysts out there or craziest. Let's sea go from

691
00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:14,520
Speaker 1: crazy too, maybe not so crazy. Welcome to the team. Yeah,

692
00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:16,760
Speaker 1: I was gonna say Clay. Clay likes to call shots

693
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:19,239
Speaker 1: deep up into the upper deck, So you guys are

694
00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:22,440
Speaker 1: in good company here. Julie, thanks so much. Thanks guys,

695
00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:24,840
Speaker 1: have a great day. I love Julie the way she

696
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:28,160
Speaker 1: just like almost carry Lake style, just kind of off handedly,

697
00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:30,640
Speaker 1: she what did she called the sack and wine moms

698
00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:32,719
Speaker 1: I mean, that's a great line. She's like, they're gonna

699
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:35,280
Speaker 1: lose that anyway because they're unstable and crazy, so whatever.

700
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:39,799
Speaker 1: I'm like, yep, fair enough. Cyber hackers they're busy out there,

701
00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:42,560
Speaker 1: one day to breach after another being reported. We told

702
00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:45,640
Speaker 1: you about one yesterday in Oklahoma where two and a

703
00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:49,279
Speaker 1: half million students info was stolen. Cyber Hackers will use

704
00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:52,480
Speaker 1: that info to set up bogus accounts start making money

705
00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:57,160
Speaker 1: off those identities. Unless the student has LifeLock, they may

706
00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:00,600
Speaker 1: never know when their identities being used illegally. It's important

707
00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:04,000
Speaker 1: to understand how cybercrime and identity theft are affecting our lives.

708
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:07,319
Speaker 1: Your personal information gets exposed so often it can make

709
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:10,760
Speaker 1: it dangerously easy for a cyber criminal to steal your identity.

Speaker 1: three percent inflation. The Biden administration in one hour less

727
00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:24,400
Speaker 1: than one hour. Bucket three Eastern is having a White

728
00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:31,160
Speaker 1: House ceremony to celebrate the falsely named Inflation Reduction Acts.

729
00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:34,160
Speaker 1: We weren't invited to the party, which is I have

730
00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:38,319
Speaker 1: not been invited to anybody. There's my invitation, Clay. The

731
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:43,480
Speaker 1: Inflation Reduction Act, which virtually every economist says will either

732
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:47,319
Speaker 1: have no impact or increase inflation going forward because the

733
00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:52,440
Speaker 1: government's spending nearly eight hundred billion additional dollars. There the

734
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:57,200
Speaker 1: amount of whys that are coming out of Joe Biden

735
00:43:57,280 --> 00:43:59,759
Speaker 1: and the White House. I missed this tweet because I

736
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:03,080
Speaker 1: don't follow Joe Biden on Twitter because I try to

737
00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:08,240
Speaker 1: limit my intake of daily White House lies. But Biden

738
00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:13,640
Speaker 1: said today, this is two hours ago. Today, we celebrate

739
00:44:13,719 --> 00:44:18,240
Speaker 1: the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act, which will create jobs,

740
00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:22,800
Speaker 1: make our code fairer, and lower costs for American families.

741
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:26,400
Speaker 1: He then tweeted, in the last hour, let's be clear,

742
00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:30,080
Speaker 1: and by he, I mean certainly Biden probably doesn't even

743
00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:32,480
Speaker 1: know how to use Twitter. I certainly don't think he

744
00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:35,800
Speaker 1: can type anything coherent on it. But his staff tweeted,

745
00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 1: Let's be clear, Democrats sided with the American people with

746
00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:44,640
Speaker 1: the Inflation Reduction Act, and every single Republican in Congress

747
00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:50,359
Speaker 1: sided with special interests. That's the choice we face. No, no, no.

748
00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:55,560
Speaker 1: The choice is can we make life better for almost

749
00:44:55,600 --> 00:45:00,000
Speaker 1: all Americans out there? Inflation index up eight point three

750
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:03,560
Speaker 1: three percent? Buck, some of these numbers are crazy. Eggs

751
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:09,319
Speaker 1: up almost forty percent. Right, We've got airline fares up

752
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:13,480
Speaker 1: thirty three percent in the last year, electricity up fifteen

753
00:45:13,520 --> 00:45:17,920
Speaker 1: point eight percent, fuel oil up nearly seventy percent, gas

754
00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:21,920
Speaker 1: up nearly twenty five point six percent, milk up seventeen percent,

755
00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:26,160
Speaker 1: groceries thirteen and a half percent, electricity nearly sixteen percent.

756
00:45:26,200 --> 00:45:29,600
Speaker 1: If you're hearing all that and you're thinking, yeah, that's

757
00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:32,279
Speaker 1: why even though I have a job, I feel like

758
00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:34,239
Speaker 1: I have less money in my pocket than I did

759
00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:37,320
Speaker 1: before Joe Biden was president. You're not making that up.

760
00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:40,400
Speaker 1: That is all one percent true. He's been a disaster

761
00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:44,319
Speaker 1: for every single working American. We all are making less

762
00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:47,399
Speaker 1: money in our paychecks because of Joe Biden. And yet

763
00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:49,360
Speaker 1: they want to tell you that things are going just great.

764
00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:53,239
Speaker 1: It's amazing, isn't it. Instead of dealing with the numerical

765
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:57,240
Speaker 1: reality of what's happening here, they would rather push fairy

766
00:45:57,239 --> 00:45:59,680
Speaker 1: tales because they know their power is at risk if

767
00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:03,319
Speaker 1: people will draw the obvious conclusion that Joe Biden, as

768
00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:06,879
Speaker 1: I've said, he it's not only things are bad if

769
00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:09,359
Speaker 1: they got their way, If the Democrats get their way,

770
00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:13,399
Speaker 1: these things get worse before they get better, as long

771
00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:16,640
Speaker 1: as they're calling the shots. Rick Santelli over at CNBC,

772
00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:19,160
Speaker 1: the man who called for the tea party, he's out

773
00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:23,279
Speaker 1: there saying, guys, just reminder, they want to spend even

774
00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:25,879
Speaker 1: more money on the Democrat side. The thing that really

775
00:46:25,920 --> 00:46:28,920
Speaker 1: bothers me with regard to inflation is everybody here on

776
00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:31,600
Speaker 1: this panel agreed months ago that one of the reasons

777
00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:34,560
Speaker 1: inflation was high was all the government spending. And after

778
00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:36,799
Speaker 1: we agreed on that, what did the government do? They

779
00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:40,640
Speaker 1: spent more student loans, welfare. In terms of the Chips Act,

780
00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:43,959
Speaker 1: seems like nothing is sinking in. These numbers aren't better

781
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:47,480
Speaker 1: than expected, and maybe they should be it. Maybe ultimately

782
00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:49,920
Speaker 1: they're gonna start to go back up again because we

783
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:53,040
Speaker 1: continue to go back to that well of debt end spending.

784
00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:57,839
Speaker 1: This is just the obvious conclusion that everybody should draw.

785
00:46:58,239 --> 00:47:02,920
Speaker 1: The people in charge for are making decisions that the

786
00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:07,359
Speaker 1: pain you are feeling economically is directly tied to. And

787
00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:11,880
Speaker 1: what's even crazier, they want to make it even worse because,

788
00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:13,839
Speaker 1: as far as they're concerned, the whole point of being

789
00:47:13,880 --> 00:47:16,879
Speaker 1: in power is to take money from some people and

790
00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:21,000
Speaker 1: give it to others. The redistribution of wealth, government spending,

791
00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:26,760
Speaker 1: taxpayer on the bill, on the ledger, for whatever social

792
00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:31,200
Speaker 1: policies they want to pursue. It's madness. So that's where

793
00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:34,120
Speaker 1: we are with the economy. I wanted to pause here

794
00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:36,720
Speaker 1: for a minute and play this too. We've been talking

795
00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:41,120
Speaker 1: buck about how CNN has been rapidly trying to pivot

796
00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:46,520
Speaker 1: back towards the middle. They fired our great friend Brian Stelter,

797
00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:49,040
Speaker 1: who now has got a job at Harvard to talk

798
00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:53,640
Speaker 1: about threats to democracy. That's not hyperbole or satire, that's real.

799
00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:57,759
Speaker 1: Harvard University is now going to pay him hundreds of

800
00:47:57,800 --> 00:48:01,759
Speaker 1: thousands of dollars to lectures students about how Republicans are

801
00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:07,480
Speaker 1: a threat to democracy. And the media at CNN and

802
00:48:07,600 --> 00:48:10,880
Speaker 1: many other places jumped all over. We got a monster

803
00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:13,919
Speaker 1: audience listening to us in Utah. Thanks to everybody out

804
00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:18,680
Speaker 1: there listening in Salt Lake and beyond and in Provo, Utah.

805
00:48:18,840 --> 00:48:21,520
Speaker 1: There was an allegation we covered it on this show,

806
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:24,560
Speaker 1: one of the few places that would actually cover the truth,

807
00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:28,720
Speaker 1: that a BYU volleyball player had had a racial slur

808
00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:32,239
Speaker 1: hurled at her during a match. She was sorry a

809
00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:37,160
Speaker 1: Duke volleyball player playing against BYU. The media immediately condemned

810
00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:42,000
Speaker 1: not only BYU, all of their students, all of their alums, everyone. Frankly,

811
00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:44,160
Speaker 1: they were trying to tie together in the Mormon faith.

812
00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:48,080
Speaker 1: All of it came under siege because of this allegation.

813
00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:52,400
Speaker 1: It now appears it was Jess Smalette on a volleyball court,

814
00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:58,080
Speaker 1: and CNN actually buck had a contributor go on the

815
00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:01,120
Speaker 1: air and call out all the media that got it

816
00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:05,719
Speaker 1: wrong and point out, hey, there's a rush to judgment here.

817
00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:09,040
Speaker 1: There's nothing to support that this actually happened. Listen. Healthy

818
00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:12,319
Speaker 1: skepticism is always a virtue, but this doesn't read like

819
00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:14,600
Speaker 1: a cover up. Instead, it feels like there was a

820
00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:17,719
Speaker 1: rush to judgment because of a well intentioned impulse to

821
00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:20,439
Speaker 1: believe the Duke players accusations. Now, we need to note

822
00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:22,920
Speaker 1: that the investigation does not call Rachel richards An a

823
00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:26,200
Speaker 1: liar or a fabricator. It leaves open the possibility that

824
00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:29,640
Speaker 1: she sincerely believed that she heard repeated Rachel heckling, that

825
00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:33,400
Speaker 1: some sort of misunderstanding occurred. But when investigations turn up

826
00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:37,640
Speaker 1: a very different fact pattern, it's incumbent upon everyone to

827
00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:41,200
Speaker 1: acknowledge it and adjust. Fidelity to the facts is all

828
00:49:41,280 --> 00:49:44,680
Speaker 1: that we, as journalists and citizens should ask. It's understandable

829
00:49:44,719 --> 00:49:46,839
Speaker 1: that there's a desire to believe people when they say

830
00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:50,080
Speaker 1: they've been victimized, but the accusations have to be backed

831
00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:53,120
Speaker 1: up by facts. And when the facts don't fit upon

832
00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:55,960
Speaker 1: further review, we need to set the record straight with

833
00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:59,680
Speaker 1: as much intensity as the initial reports. We've seen quite

834
00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:04,080
Speaker 1: a and here, mister Travis, can you believe that they

835
00:50:04,080 --> 00:50:07,879
Speaker 1: called me a right wing extremist for basically saying everything

836
00:50:07,920 --> 00:50:10,520
Speaker 1: that CNN just finally got around too. I also think

837
00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:14,279
Speaker 1: it's it's funny to watch CNN try to start to

838
00:50:14,360 --> 00:50:17,759
Speaker 1: be a news organization again because their jobs are all

839
00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:20,560
Speaker 1: on the line. So so this guy John Avon there

840
00:50:20,640 --> 00:50:23,080
Speaker 1: is saying and what he's saying about, well, yes it

841
00:50:23,160 --> 00:50:26,000
Speaker 1: is possible, but there are facts. What you see is

842
00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:31,359
Speaker 1: the people at CNN are capable of living in reality,

843
00:50:31,640 --> 00:50:35,200
Speaker 1: they're capable of analyzing things, but for a long time

844
00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:39,239
Speaker 1: they have been catering because of ideology, to people who

845
00:50:39,320 --> 00:50:42,680
Speaker 1: just want to hear stuff. It's your point about Hunter

846
00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:46,120
Speaker 1: Biden in the laptop. That is clearly the fact that

847
00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:49,480
Speaker 1: forty percent of people still believe it is misinformation. That

848
00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:53,280
Speaker 1: is clearly a function of the steady diet of lies

849
00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:56,440
Speaker 1: they have been fed by the Democratic line corporate media

850
00:50:56,840 --> 00:51:00,440
Speaker 1: such that it doesn't even the correction never pen. This

851
00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:02,319
Speaker 1: is the classic thing you see on SOD. By the way,

852
00:51:02,360 --> 00:51:04,120
Speaker 1: did I jump ahead of did you not? I think

853
00:51:04,440 --> 00:51:07,879
Speaker 1: you and I talked about that. Sorry, I thought, yeah,

854
00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:10,279
Speaker 1: this is for everybody out there, but just hit it.

855
00:51:10,600 --> 00:51:14,800
Speaker 1: There's a study out what percentage of people still believe

856
00:51:15,040 --> 00:51:20,880
Speaker 1: that the Hunter Biden laptop is Russian disinformation? Forty one

857
00:51:21,040 --> 00:51:26,359
Speaker 1: percent of the American public, including half of Democrats and

858
00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:29,600
Speaker 1: roughly half of independent voters, and even I believe twenty

859
00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:33,760
Speaker 1: seven percent of Republicans still believe the big tech lie

860
00:51:33,920 --> 00:51:37,560
Speaker 1: the collusion with the Democrat Party, that the Hunter Biden

861
00:51:37,680 --> 00:51:43,239
Speaker 1: laptop was Russian disinformation and not real. That's a staggering percentage.

862
00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:47,520
Speaker 1: Forty one percent of the American public doesn't know. And

863
00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:50,160
Speaker 1: given the big all the fact checking that the big

864
00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:53,040
Speaker 1: tech companies go on, wouldn't this be a direct threat

865
00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:58,080
Speaker 1: to democracy? That huge percentages of the American population still

866
00:51:58,239 --> 00:52:01,160
Speaker 1: aren't aware of the truth of the Hunter Biden laptop.

867
00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:05,000
Speaker 1: You would think so. And yet I mean, how many

868
00:52:05,040 --> 00:52:07,239
Speaker 1: people play if you looked at it back and I

869
00:52:07,239 --> 00:52:12,319
Speaker 1: think it was even twenty eighteen believed that Russia. This

870
00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:16,680
Speaker 1: was another one of these moments Russia changed vote totals

871
00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:20,719
Speaker 1: in voting machines. It was a very high number. If

872
00:52:20,719 --> 00:52:23,400
Speaker 1: you go back among them, and look at the polling.

873
00:52:23,520 --> 00:52:26,560
Speaker 1: Twenty sixteen through twenty eighteen was the last time I

874
00:52:26,600 --> 00:52:29,960
Speaker 1: saw polls. They still believed it deep into the Trump

875
00:52:30,040 --> 00:52:33,600
Speaker 1: presidency because a lot of the time, which whatever has

876
00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:37,399
Speaker 1: to recognize, is people believe what they want to believe, right,

877
00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:41,240
Speaker 1: and when they've been told something that is as affirming

878
00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:44,520
Speaker 1: for their whole view as of Donald Trump as evil

879
00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:47,640
Speaker 1: and he's horrible, and ah see, the Russians even changed

880
00:52:47,760 --> 00:52:51,840
Speaker 1: vote totals. There was never any basis in evidence for this.

881
00:52:52,080 --> 00:52:54,200
Speaker 1: I think it's interesting that even in the going back

882
00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:59,560
Speaker 1: to the BYU volleyball allegation, Uh, you notice the media

883
00:52:59,600 --> 00:53:03,759
Speaker 1: in recent years did this, somebody said something without evidence

884
00:53:03,800 --> 00:53:07,680
Speaker 1: and then they keep going the BYU player here made

885
00:53:07,719 --> 00:53:11,839
Speaker 1: an allegation that is to this day without evidence. So

886
00:53:11,960 --> 00:53:14,680
Speaker 1: the Duke player, yeah, I'm sorry the Duke player I did, Yeah,

887
00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:16,960
Speaker 1: to say that the Duke player against BYU made the

888
00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:21,720
Speaker 1: same made an allegation without evidence in twenty eighteen, Speaking

889
00:53:21,719 --> 00:53:24,920
Speaker 1: of which, under remember on the Kavanaugh situation, the line

890
00:53:25,080 --> 00:53:28,200
Speaker 1: was women are to be believed, to believe all women.

891
00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:31,600
Speaker 1: We actually had a moment here where in order to

892
00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:35,120
Speaker 1: achieve a desired political outcome in that case for a

893
00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:40,360
Speaker 1: Supreme Court seat. It turned into evidence free allegation must

894
00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:47,759
Speaker 1: be believed true Soviet style resolution of the situation. That

895
00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:51,040
Speaker 1: was what they wanted. And Buck, think about this Duke

896
00:53:51,239 --> 00:53:56,839
Speaker 1: volleyball player. Either she best case scenario for her she

897
00:53:57,120 --> 00:54:00,120
Speaker 1: mistakenly believed she was being called a racial slow or

898
00:54:00,200 --> 00:54:06,000
Speaker 1: during a volleyball match. Why would she believe that because

899
00:54:06,239 --> 00:54:09,239
Speaker 1: she has bought into the idea that America is a

900
00:54:09,280 --> 00:54:13,759
Speaker 1: fundamentally racist place, and so she just expects that a

901
00:54:13,800 --> 00:54:17,759
Speaker 1: white crowd is going to be screaming racial slurs at

902
00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:20,280
Speaker 1: her during a match and nobody's going to do anything.

903
00:54:20,719 --> 00:54:24,759
Speaker 1: That's the best case scenario for her. Worst case scenario here,

904
00:54:25,680 --> 00:54:30,280
Speaker 1: she is a direct liar who made up this entire story.

905
00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:34,359
Speaker 1: There's zero evidence for him. Duke, if they were an

906
00:54:34,400 --> 00:54:39,200
Speaker 1: institution that cared about truth, would actually conduct an investigation here,

907
00:54:39,520 --> 00:54:42,600
Speaker 1: because if they determine that she made up this lie,

908
00:54:43,520 --> 00:54:45,880
Speaker 1: she should be kicked out of Duke and not allowed

909
00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:48,319
Speaker 1: to attend the school anymore because it would be a

910
00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:52,080
Speaker 1: violation of the student code. They will not do that, though, Buck,

911
00:54:52,520 --> 00:54:55,840
Speaker 1: because she is a black woman, they will not treat

912
00:54:55,920 --> 00:54:59,080
Speaker 1: her to the same standard that they would hold a

913
00:54:59,120 --> 00:55:03,360
Speaker 1: white guy. And we know this because, based on allegations Buck,

914
00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:09,240
Speaker 1: they shut down the entire lacrosse program and then evidently

915
00:55:09,280 --> 00:55:12,160
Speaker 1: had to pay tens of million dollars in damages. But

916
00:55:12,280 --> 00:55:16,080
Speaker 1: you would think, of all institutions out there, Duke, would

917
00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:21,600
Speaker 1: we be the most skeptical of initial stories and say, wait, wait, wait,

918
00:55:21,920 --> 00:55:25,200
Speaker 1: this is an allegation, let's actually investigate. But when a

919
00:55:25,200 --> 00:55:27,840
Speaker 1: black woman says it, it has to be true because

920
00:55:27,880 --> 00:55:30,720
