1 00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:04,560 Speaker 1: Welcome in Clay Travis buck Sexton show a couple of 2 00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:07,880 Speaker 1: news stories that are out there as we are rolling 3 00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:10,559 Speaker 1: through the Thursday edition of the program. 4 00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:13,360 Speaker 2: The June teenth edition of the program. 5 00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:19,200 Speaker 1: By the way, am I the only person that thinks 6 00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:24,640 Speaker 1: maybe June sixth, D Day should be a national holiday. 7 00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:30,160 Speaker 1: If you had to think about what day would better 8 00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 1: represent the Greatest Generation and their fight for human rights 9 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 1: around the world, June sixth, nineteen forty four. Making June 10 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 1: sixth a national holiday would make a great deal of 11 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 1: sense to me, way more than June teenth. Candidly, I 12 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 1: don't think our federal government in general needs a lot 13 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:58,280 Speaker 1: more holidays, but I do think holidays that bring everybody 14 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 1: together the Greatest Generation being celebrated nationwide on June sixth. 15 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 1: I know we have Memorial Day. I know we have 16 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:10,399 Speaker 1: Veterans Day. I know we have July fourth. There are 17 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 1: a lot of different days of celebration, but June sixth 18 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:20,320 Speaker 1: is such I think an iconic day in American history, 19 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 1: and while there are still some members of that battle, 20 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:30,320 Speaker 1: some veterans that fought on that day, I think it 21 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 1: would be a really incredibly gratifying and worthwhile day to 22 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 1: make a holiday where everybody can sit around and think 23 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: about what those men did on that day, and so 24 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 1: we could see actual bravery, and maybe it would push 25 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 1: back against the idea that unfortunately has taken root in 26 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 1: America where everybody who disagrees with me is a Nazi, 27 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 1: everybody who disagree with me as Adolf Hitler. I think 28 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:08,640 Speaker 1: it would actually be incredibly profoundly symbolic and important statement 29 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 1: that we could make, but we are dealing instead Juneteenth. 30 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 1: We've been talking about National Service, its impacts, just having 31 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: perspective gratitude, understanding how fortunate we all are, regardless of 32 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 1: our backgrounds, to be Americans. A lot of you weighing 33 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: in with that. We're reacting to the viral clip of 34 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 1: Wiffy Goldberg saying black people in America don't have it 35 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: better than they do and than women do in Iran, 36 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: which is such a crazy, outlandish, outrageous, indefensible. 37 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 2: Argument to be making that. 38 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 1: It's staggering to me that that show the view which 39 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 1: basically exists just to have all of those crazy things happen. 40 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: But a couple of news stories that are out there 41 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: for those of you have kids, grandkids, maybe it's you 42 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 1: as well. Maybe it's buck when he's learning his newest dance. 43 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:03,360 Speaker 1: Donald Trump has extended ninety days a order that he 44 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: has put in place that would allow TikTok to be sold. 45 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 1: It has not yet been sold. That has moved off 46 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 1: obviously of the front pages. The story surrounding that, but 47 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: that that. 48 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 2: Is going on. 49 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: Also there is continued talk about some form of peace 50 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 1: agreement that could be entered into. Earlier this morning, Iran 51 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: hit a hospital in Israel. Damage was significant, and the 52 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: debate over whether the United States should get involved in 53 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: bombing the Iran nuclear site that is built into the 54 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: side of a mountain with our big bunker buster bomb. 55 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: That is a tough phrase to hit continues with a 56 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: variety of different stories surrounding that. But I don't know 57 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 1: how many of you saw this last night, but it 58 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 1: struck me. We talked to yesterday with the Attorney General 59 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: of Tennessee about the six' three ruling that came down 60 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 1: allowing The state Of tennessee to not to not permit 61 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: minors to be receiving these gender transition. 62 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 2: Treatments. 63 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:22,479 Speaker 1: Right in my, opinion they're, barbaric particularly for young. Children 64 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,279 Speaker 1: if you're an adult and you want to have a 65 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 1: cosmetic procedure that makes you happier you think will make you. 66 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 1: HAPPIER i think that is at least a choice you can. 67 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: Make but AS i said in that argument, yesterday we 68 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:39,839 Speaker 1: don't even let kids get tattoos because we recognize a 69 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 1: lot of times kids make choices that they wish they 70 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: wouldn't have. Made and probably the tattoo that your average 71 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 1: kid would get when he was fourteen or she would 72 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:53,039 Speaker 1: get when she was fourteen would be very different in 73 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 1: terms of what they might, want even if you'd want 74 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 1: a tattoo at all at twenty, four thirty, four forty. 75 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: Four and so we, say, hey you can get tattoos 76 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 1: until you're at least over. Eighteen and so it seems 77 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 1: to me that the logic of, hey you shouldn't be 78 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,040 Speaker 1: able to chop your penis off or you shouldn't be 79 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: able to chop your boobs, off that that would actually 80 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 1: maintain and have some. Cogency in, FACT i was thinking 81 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 1: about this even more With Judge Elena Supreme Court Justice. 82 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 1: KAGAN i was thinking about it in the context of minor, 83 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 1: crimes meaning minors who commit. Crimes we are so of 84 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 1: the opinion that kids under eighteen shouldn't be responsible for 85 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 1: all the choices that they, make that you can commit 86 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:46,480 Speaker 1: a crime as a juvenile and we wipe it clean 87 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 1: because we basically have decided as a, Society, hey sometimes 88 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 1: you shouldn't be held accountable for the choice you made 89 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:57,919 Speaker 1: when you were sixteen for the rest of your, life 90 00:05:58,000 --> 00:05:59,679 Speaker 1: and so we will clear juvenile crime. 91 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 2: Record. 92 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 1: Now sometimes the juvenile crimes can be so significant that 93 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 1: juveniles are tried as. Adults, yes there are varying degrees 94 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 1: of that which, occur but if as a society we 95 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 1: have decided fifteen and sixteen year olds shouldn't even be 96 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 1: held accountable sometimes oftentimes most times for the crimes that they, 97 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:27,720 Speaker 1: commit and we will wipe them. Clean And Judge kagan 98 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: is a strong advocate of that. Perspective how can she 99 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 1: simultaneously argue that fifteen year old should be able to 100 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 1: irreversibly change their body and potentially sterilize. THEMSELVES i would 101 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 1: love For Judge, kagan WHO i think is actually, intelligent 102 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 1: to try. 103 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 2: And explain that to me and to all of. You 104 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 2: AND i was thinking about that. 105 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 1: YESTERDAY i had like a four hour delay on my 106 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: flight back FROM, dc SO i was doing a lot of. 107 00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 1: READING i was doing a lot of, thinking and some 108 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: of you may have seen the tweet THAT i put. 109 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 1: Out it was a six' to three decision yesterday that 110 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 1: the State of tennessee had the ability to restrict miners 111 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 1: from having these gender surgeries which could be so destructive 112 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: for them, as adults that were not going to allow 113 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 1: it in my home STATE where i am right Now. 114 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:18,680 Speaker 2: At tennessee and. 115 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: It was, six' three and a lot of, people were 116 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 1: saying how is this not?

The choices that, they make 194 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 1: when they're, young even if they're criminal because we don't 195 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 1: think their brains are well developed enough to be entirely 196 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 1: accountable for.
