00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,360
Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of The Clay Travis and Buck

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:06,680
Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Friday edition of The Clay Travis and

3
00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:10,280
Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show starts right now. Everybody, thanks for being

4
00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:14,239
Speaker 1: here with us. We've got some phenomenal guests. We've got

5
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:17,800
Speaker 1: some big stories to talk about. We've got Uncle Bill.

6
00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:21,240
Speaker 1: Bill O'Reilly will be with us second hour of the program,

7
00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:24,880
Speaker 1: in the middle of the hour talking about politics, the border,

8
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:27,640
Speaker 1: you know, all the big things. And then also we'll

9
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:31,360
Speaker 1: be joined by Stephen Miller specifically, we want to talk

10
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:35,559
Speaker 1: to him, get into the border issues and talk to him.

11
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:38,040
Speaker 1: As you know, he was a former White House senior

12
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,600
Speaker 1: White House advisor to President Trump, really the architect in

13
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:44,640
Speaker 1: many ways of Trump's border policy. So we'll discuss that

14
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,879
Speaker 1: with him because it's a huge story. Right now. The

15
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 1: view Clay told me about this one this is great,

16
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 1: is upset at Nicky Haley's agism toward Donald Trump. We

17
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 1: shall have that discussion. Nikki Haley not not winning over

18
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:06,400
Speaker 1: these two hosts with a whole lot these days. But

19
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you definitely not about to criticize

20
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:13,760
Speaker 1: her for making agism jokes because or making agist remarks

21
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:17,320
Speaker 1: considering that the ladies of the view hate any Republican.

22
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:19,119
Speaker 1: I think we all know this is in bad faith.

23
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:25,319
Speaker 1: We will discuss that. Now. We also have a Leah Thomas.

24
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:30,680
Speaker 1: Remember Leah Thomas, the formerly what was his name, Michael

25
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 1: to Michael Michael Thomas right then became Lea Thomas swam

26
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 1: against Raley Gaines. Riley was on the show with us yesterday. Well,

27
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 1: Lea Thomas now wants to change the rules or get

28
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 1: approval of.

29
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 2: What one correction, William Thomas, William Thomas, Michael, William, Bob whatever, I.

30
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 1: Apolog John, Yeah, some other guy, it's a guy's name

31
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 1: Thomas wants to swim in the Olympics. So we will

32
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 1: have that discussion because this is it's They keep forcing

33
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: this issue, the left and the transgender movement keeps forcing

34
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 1: this issue and then says, why are you so obsessed

35
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: with it? Why do you want to talk about it?

36
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure they're more obsessed with it than we are.

37
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:13,119
Speaker 1: A lot to get into here, but Clay, let's start

38
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 1: with the latest on the border situation. As we talked yesterday,

39
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 1: there has been a bit of an earthquake through the

40
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 1: Biden regime where they recognize This is a bad look

41
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 1: for them. They have gotten the Supreme Court to remove

42
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,800
Speaker 1: a stay. This is actually important right to remove a

43
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 1: stay on the federal government that was preventing the federal

44
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:43,079
Speaker 1: government from clearing razor wire that the State of Texas

45
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:47,400
Speaker 1: had put down to prevent border crossings in some areas well.

46
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:52,399
Speaker 1: Now State of Texas is saying, we're going to continue

47
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 1: putting down this razor wire. We're going to double up

48
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 1: on this. Whatever the federal government wants to do, they

49
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 1: can do, but we have not been ordered by the

50
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:06,680
Speaker 1: Supreme Court to cease. There's been no federal injunction against us.

51
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,200
Speaker 1: So we're going to do what we're going to do

52
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 1: and have the Biden administration go out of their way

53
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 1: to make it easier for illegals to get into the country.

54
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 1: You've also had Clay twenty five states. I believe it

55
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 1: might have gone up even a little bit, but a

56
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 1: couple dozen states openly standing in solidarity with Texas on

57
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 1: this one. Christinoam up in South Dakota. Clay, let's just

58
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 1: hear from her for a second possible VP for Trump,

59
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 1: says she'll bring razor wire down from South Dakota herself.

60
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 1: If that helps. This is cut fourteen play.

61
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 3: It has done the exact right thing, and I'll drive

62
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 3: him more razor wire from South Dakota if I have

63
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 3: to for him to do his job. Over two years ago,

64
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 3: I declared it a war zone at the southern border,

65
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 3: just how I was impacting South Dakota, and I'm a

66
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 3: long ways away from South Dakota. Has been down there

67
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 3: on multiple deployments supporting the Texas National Guard. Our border

68
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 3: patrol agents do not support what President Biden is doing.

69
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 3: Our ice people on the ground do not support what

70
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 3: President Biden is doing. Democrats in this country do not

71
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:17,719
Speaker 3: support what President Biden is doing at the southern border.

72
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,840
Speaker 3: We will be Europe within a year or two if

73
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 3: we allow President Biden to continue this invasion of our country.

74
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:26,719
Speaker 1: I think we're worse than Europe Clay already, but that's

75
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 1: beside the point.

76
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,040
Speaker 2: What do you think, Well, we are worse than Europe

77
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 2: because it's way easier to get into the United States

78
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,719
Speaker 2: if you are an illegal immigrant than it is to

79
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,560
Speaker 2: get into Europe. I mean, we got people in Africa,

80
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 2: obviously much geographically closer to Europe, that are traveling all

81
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 2: the way to Latin America to walk across our southern border.

82
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 2: And that's really the story of the Biden administration so

83
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 2: far is that I believe it's hundreds now of countries

84
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 2: have had illegal immigrants across our southern border. And Trump

85
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:03,719
Speaker 2: weighted in, and I thought he was completely on top

86
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 2: of this issue. He suggested something that we said on

87
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:11,479
Speaker 2: the show yesterday, which is I think that every state

88
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,719
Speaker 2: and Christinoum mentioned this, and several states have already done this,

89
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 2: should be talking about their own state national Guard being

90
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 2: deployed to Texas to support the Texas National Guard in

91
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:27,600
Speaker 2: their ability to undertake the defense of our southern border.

92
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:31,040
Speaker 2: And I still come back to Joe Biden, who we

93
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,479
Speaker 2: know is not really making decisions, and even when he

94
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 2: was adroit and skilled as a politician, I think this

95
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 2: would have been a tough situation to handle. I really

96
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 2: I was thinking about that this morning, Buck as I

97
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:49,040
Speaker 2: was reading more prep on this. I don't know how

98
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 2: Biden responds here. I really don't now. I think the

99
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:56,159
Speaker 2: best answer for him is to do Here's what I

100
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 2: think he'll do, and by what I think he'll do,

101
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,280
Speaker 2: what I think the administration will do. I think they

102
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 2: will do nothing, because I don't think they want to

103
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:11,039
Speaker 2: create a video or viral incident of a confrontation on

104
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:15,160
Speaker 2: the southern border that involves them removing razor wire and

105
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:18,560
Speaker 2: allowing illegal immigrants to come in. I think they'll weight

106
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 2: on the Fifth Circuit to rule, and I think in

107
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:25,680
Speaker 2: the meantime, they will blame Republicans for not solving the

108
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:29,360
Speaker 2: issue at the southern border. The problem is, I don't

109
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 2: think that plays very well because I think the American

110
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 2: public has seen what's been happening over the last several

111
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:38,480
Speaker 2: years understands that the president is responsible for what goes

112
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 2: on at the southern border. But I think with this

113
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 2: bill that is currently pending, they will claim and remember,

114
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 2: it's connected to Israel funding and Ukraine funding, and it's

115
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,919
Speaker 2: designed to give what is it like, seventy billion dollars

116
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 2: more to Ukraine, whatever the heck crazy amount of money

117
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 2: it is. I think that they will try to argue

118
00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 2: that Republicans have led to the open southern border. I

119
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 2: don't think that's going to work, But otherwise I think

120
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 2: they're kind of checkmated in terms of being able to

121
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 2: respond directly as to what Texas is doing.

122
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 1: I think that the Biden administration has really no good

123
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 1: options here. I also think that some of the more

124
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 1: hyperbolic commentary online about this is I understand people. There's

125
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 1: the fun stuff like the Babylon Bee saying that Ted

126
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 1: Cruz is growing out Mutton Shops in preparation for the

127
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 1: Second Civil War. They're obviously kidding, but it was funny

128
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,520
Speaker 1: to see Ted Cruz with that wolverine style facial here.

129
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 1: But the reality is, this isn't some huge constitutional crisis.

130
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,760
Speaker 1: It's just a stay from the Supreme Court. Texas can

131
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 1: continue to put down razor wire on Texas land where

132
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 1: it's is fit. There's been no order that says that

133
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,560
Speaker 1: Texas cannot do that. It just means that the federal

134
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:54,240
Speaker 1: government can spend time and resources removing it if they

135
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,840
Speaker 1: so choose. That's the sum total of it. Right now.

136
00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 1: The problem you have, Clay is for an over overwhelmed

137
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 1: border patrol, which they are, and they're called in the

138
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 1: middle of this, and I know, and I know we

139
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 1: have border patrol people who listen to this. I fully

140
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 1: understand that they're trying to just do their jobs and

141
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: they're put in an impossible situation right now because ultimately

142
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 1: their executive branch employees right they take orders from DHS,

143
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 1: that is the chain of command. DHS takes orders from

144
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 1: the Biden white House. But I know they actually just

145
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 1: want to do their jobs that the Biden white House

146
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 1: would spend time in resources to make it. Let's just

147
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 1: understand this, to make it easier. It wasn't just razor

148
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 1: wire either. Remember they also wanted them to remove buoys

149
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 1: that were making it hard for people to swim across

150
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 1: the Rio Grande. Right, this is effectively the Biden regime.

151
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 1: If Texas started just building wall segments on its own,

152
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 1: Biden is paying Border patrol guys to go with sledgehammers

153
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 1: to knock it down. That's really what's happening here. I mean,

154
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,440
Speaker 1: I think that's the sum total of the dynamics that

155
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:02,199
Speaker 1: are at play, and going into an election year, they're realizing,

156
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:05,240
Speaker 1: I mean, Clay, these numbers are out of control. And

157
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,079
Speaker 1: this is all because Biden came into office and said

158
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:12,200
Speaker 1: no deportations at all for one hundred days, got rid

159
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,000
Speaker 1: of the Remain in Mexico program. I mean, you go

160
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,800
Speaker 1: down the list. Everything he did was to bring us

161
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:18,840
Speaker 1: to this point. And now they turn around and say, well,

162
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:22,439
Speaker 1: I want Republicans fix it. Yeah, and.

163
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:27,840
Speaker 2: This is and I think it's important to hammer this home.

164
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,680
Speaker 2: This is the single lowest rated issue for Joe Biden

165
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 2: of anything. And I'll give you a little bit more

166
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,560
Speaker 2: of this detail. But Pugh came out with their latest

167
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:42,840
Speaker 2: approval rating. Joe Biden's approval ratings thirty three percent.

168
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 1: Buck.

169
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 2: The only group that Joe Biden has a positive approval

170
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 2: rating with in the entire country, And when we come

171
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 2: back from the next break, I'll dig this up and

172
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 2: I'll give you full data is post graduates, which is

173
00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 2: obviously a tiny pinprick of the population people who or

174
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 2: going for graduate degrees after having already gotten undergraduate degrees,

175
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:09,160
Speaker 2: and he has a positive with them fifty to forty nine.

176
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 2: So even that group, which historically is very, very favorable

177
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:22,559
Speaker 2: towards Democrats, has a minuscule actual support for Joe Biden.

178
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:27,880
Speaker 2: And I give credit because I do think Trump has

179
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 2: been right on this issue. And I think if Trump

180
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,320
Speaker 2: had not surged as he has in one Iowa, in

181
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,440
Speaker 2: one New Hampshire, I think there's a lot of Republicans Buck,

182
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 2: who would have gone ahead and signed on to giving

183
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 2: nearly whatever it is, seventy five or eighty billion dollars

184
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 2: to Ukraine and to this border.

185
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 1: Bill, which is not enough. It's not good enough.

186
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 2: And we'll talk with Stephen Miller, who is a border guru,

187
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 2: at the top of the third hour of this program.

188
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:01,960
Speaker 2: But I saw him tweet yesterday Biden doesn't need anything

189
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 2: from the courts or from Congress to fix what's going

190
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:08,960
Speaker 2: on at the southern border. With the stroke of a pen,

191
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 2: he could re implement every decision that Trump made and

192
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 2: in one fell swoop, the border would shut down and

193
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:20,240
Speaker 2: everything would go back to what it was before he

194
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 2: came into office. All the proxy is there. In other words,

195
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 2: all he has to do is reinstitute the Trump policies.

196
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 2: Now he won't do it for political reasons. But the

197
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 2: idea that Biden is somehow hamstrung or needs Congress to act,

198
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 2: or needs the courts to act in order for him

199
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 2: to secure the southern border is just not true. He

200
00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 2: has the presidential prerogative and the presidential authority to completely

201
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:49,199
Speaker 2: shut down the border and make our southern border safe

202
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:52,760
Speaker 2: and secure instantaneously, just based on his presidential powers.

203
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 1: All they really have to do, there's a lot there's

204
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:57,560
Speaker 1: a lot of things they have to do. But the

205
00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:02,600
Speaker 1: first major step would be if just by I think

206
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:04,959
Speaker 1: by executive order or even you could just say by

207
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 1: clarification with the DHS, they should say that credible you know,

208
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 1: basically use their discretion in the field to say that

209
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 1: none of these people are passing the credible fear test,

210
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 1: and then they're subject to immediate deportation. That's it, because

211
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 1: they're not passing the credible fear test. Because all they're

212
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 1: saying is I have a credible fear, let me into

213
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,720
Speaker 1: your country. The whole thing's a skin. I mean, it's

214
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 1: absolutely absurd. You know, if I went into a police

215
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,559
Speaker 1: station and said I need to go arrest ten people

216
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 1: because they're actually space lizard aliens, if the cops arrest

217
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 1: those people, they should be held to account for being idiots, right,

218
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:43,959
Speaker 1: I mean there at some level there has to be

219
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:48,200
Speaker 1: some ration, rational and some reasonable reasonable approach to the

220
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 1: execution of laws, and that's what you don't have with

221
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 1: the board at all. But it's all intentional, I mean,

222
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,480
Speaker 1: that's really what this comes down to. And now Democrats

223
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 1: do what they always do, try to evade accountability by

224
00:12:58,080 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 1: acting like somehow this is a big shock.

225
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:04,199
Speaker 2: Most people use phones as cameras thirty five millimeter camera

226
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 2: almost a thing in the past, just like the video

227
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:11,800
Speaker 2: camera has become. Remember America's Home Video, America's Funniest Home

228
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:13,559
Speaker 2: Video Bob Saggett back in the day. How many of

229
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:15,440
Speaker 2: you out there listening to me right now? Watch that

230
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 2: show back in the late eighties early nineties before the

231
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:23,920
Speaker 2: Internet existed. Basically, the Internet killed America's Funniest Home Videos

232
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,680
Speaker 2: because suddenly we could watch every video all day long

233
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 2: on our phones. But back in those days, the show

234
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 2: was really really popular. So many huge percentages of Americans

235
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 2: out there had video cameras with funny moments that they

236
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:40,160
Speaker 2: put and it sort of summed up your family and

237
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 2: shared your family's experiences. You'd watch them sometimes over and

238
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,320
Speaker 2: over again. You probably still have those old videotapes, but

239
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 2: you know they degrade. You know they don't last forever.

240
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,880
Speaker 2: You probably don't even have a VCR anymore. Isn't it

241
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:54,440
Speaker 2: time to go ahead and digitally transferred that old media

242
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,960
Speaker 2: onto new digital files that can be shared online and

243
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:01,120

Speaker 2: I wanted to hit you with this buck because I

252
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:45,680
Speaker 2: teased it as we were discussing the border situation. The

253
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:49,400
Speaker 2: numbers are out. This is Pew Research. Biden job approval.

254
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 2: This came out yesterday after we finished the show. Approval

255
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 2: rating thirty three percent, disapproval rating sixty five percent. Listen

256
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 2: to the these approval ratings by racial group, by education,

257
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 2: everything else.

258
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 1: Again, this is Pere research.

259
00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:12,360
Speaker 2: White people job approval for Joe Biden thirty percent approval,

260
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 2: sixty eight percent disapproval, Hispanic approval rating thirty two percent,

261
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:26,120
Speaker 2: disapproval sixty five Asian thirty nine percent approval, fifty nine

262
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 2: percent disapproval, and even the Black community forty eight percent

263
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 2: approval forty nine percent disapproval. College these numbers are staggering,

264
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 2: but college grad thirty six percent approval, sixty two percent

265
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 2: not disapproval.

266
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 1: Ages eighteen to.

267
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 2: Twenty nine twenty seven percent approval, seventy one percent disapproval. Again,

268
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 2: the only group that approves of Joe Biden is those

269
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 2: with postgrad You with degrees, Now you can say, okay,

270
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 2: they probably don't have strong approval ratings for Donald Trump either,

271
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:10,160
Speaker 2: But we've reached the level for Joe Biden where he

272
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 2: truly is without any parallel ever in the polling industry,

273
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:16,760
Speaker 2: going all.

274
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:17,240
Speaker 1: The way back.

275
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 2: I think they started all these Pew Research polls and

276
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 2: Gallop polls back when Harry Truman was president shortly after

277
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 2: World War Two ended. No one has ever had approval

278
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 2: ratings that are this low. So I do think the

279
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 2: Biden you know, sort of hit the uh, break the

280
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 2: glass emergency moment. We're almost to February, nine months from

281
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 2: the election. Yes, a lot can change, but February, you know,

282
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 2: nine months out again, the numbers aren't really getting adjusted

283
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 2: for Biden, and they're spending a lot of money now

284
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 2: trying to prop him up. Buck And at some point,

285
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 2: I do think the alarm bells really start to go

286
00:16:58,000 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 2: off in earnest.

287
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: I mean, I think there are, there's a lot of

288
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 1: concern among Democrats. I also think that all you have

289
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:07,679
Speaker 1: to do is look back to where things were in

290
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,640
Speaker 1: the beginning of twenty twenty three in the Republican primary

291
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,240
Speaker 1: and where they ended up to know that a lot

292
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 1: can change and the economy is going to get juiced

293
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 1: with everything they've got. They're going to bring down rates,

294
00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:22,560
Speaker 1: they're going to do all kinds of stuff, I think

295
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 1: to try to make it seem like it's better than

296
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 1: it is. And ultimately, I think both sides show up

297
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 1: on election day with forty eight percent of the electorate

298
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 1: that they need already on their side. You know what

299
00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:37,600
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like, it's yeah, I get it. You know,

300
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,600
Speaker 1: as bad as it is, there's gonna be a huge

301
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:44,440
Speaker 1: amount of people on both sides were saying, well, maybe

302
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:46,199
Speaker 1: I don't love this guy or maybe I don't love

303
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,959
Speaker 1: the other guy, but I'm gonna go with my party.

304
00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 1: That's it. That's what's gonna So that's how I see

305
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 1: it coming down, which means got to stay eye on

306
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:54,480

326
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 1: One of the problems that you see with Biden and

327
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 1: the policies that he has both pursued and is currently

328
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 1: shifting toward, is he has a lunatic left wing dominated party.

329
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,119
Speaker 1: It's no longer the fringe as I say, they're the vanguard,

330
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:21,040
Speaker 1: They're the center and the frontline troops of the Democrat movement.

331
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 1: They've gone insane. You know, the people that are obsessed

332
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 1: with pronouns, and the people that want all the statues

333
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,600
Speaker 1: torn down, and the people that think that cops are bad,

334
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:31,679
Speaker 1: and you know, the open borders are good. And you

335
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 1: go down this list, and Biden needs them, he needs

336
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 1: them mobilized for him. And so you have some of

337
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 1: these transactional decisions that if you actually believed what Joe

338
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 1: Biden was saying back in twenty twenty would be a

339
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,359
Speaker 1: huge shock to you. You know, I'm a uniter and

340
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:50,679
Speaker 1: I'm a moderate, and good old Uncle Joe and all

341
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 1: this stuff, it's all nonsense or Grandpa Joe nonsense. And

342
00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:57,480
Speaker 1: Clay the latest example this, I mean the border. The

343
00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:00,840
Speaker 1: reason the Democrats have the problems they do at the border.

344
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:04,119
Speaker 1: Now again they chose this, it's not a surprise. But

345
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:07,720
Speaker 1: the reason they made these decisions is twofold one. The

346
00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 1: left wing of the Democrat Party, or the left wing

347
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 1: Democrat Party, feels that America should be transformed and that

348
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,920
Speaker 1: we have a duty to take in as many people

349
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:22,720
Speaker 1: from all over the world who come here illegally as

350
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 1: want to. So there's a belief component of it. And

351
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,479
Speaker 1: then there's also just the cold hard politics of changing

352
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:31,119
Speaker 1: the electorate and having more people who are going to

353
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:34,679
Speaker 1: be dependent on the state, because state dependency and much

354
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 1: of the rest of the world is what people seek. Unfortunately,

355
00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:40,639
Speaker 1: America with its notions of independence. I know we have

356
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 1: a larger welfare state here than we should or than

357
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:45,359
Speaker 1: many of us want to have, But the notions of

358
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 1: independence are unique to this country. You don't even see

359
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:51,719
Speaker 1: it in other countries, this idea that the government has

360
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,120
Speaker 1: to back off and leave us alone. Everywhere else they're

361
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 1: just figuring out how they can run up bigger and

362
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:59,160
Speaker 1: bigger public debt to build a more massive welfare state

363
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:03,240
Speaker 1: until it completely collapses their economy into dust. As a

364
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: lesson there, but clay on the natural gas issue, I

365
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:11,879
Speaker 1: don't know if there's other than the gender This is

366
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,639
Speaker 1: actually an interesting question. I want to get to the

367
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:19,720
Speaker 1: question of who you think is the craziest component that's

368
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:25,199
Speaker 1: politically meaningful of the Democrat coalition. The gender stuff, you know,

369
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:27,720
Speaker 1: with all the transgenderism and the sort of gender identity

370
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,480
Speaker 1: politics tie for me. But in some ways I think

371
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,800
Speaker 1: the climate people are the most insane. I think you

372
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 1: can make a a real case that the climate climate

373
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:40,160
Speaker 1: change lunatics are. You know, they're one. They're blocking traffic

374
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:43,520
Speaker 1: and they're doing all this insane stuff. So Biden has

375
00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:46,399
Speaker 1: weighed in this the near from the Washington Post in

376
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:50,360
Speaker 1: favor of climate activists fighting new fossil fuel development, pausing

377
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:54,239
Speaker 1: approval of new liquefied natural gas projects because of their

378
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:57,600
Speaker 1: danger to the planet. This is just raising the price

379
00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:01,560
Speaker 1: of energy for everybody. This is just making America poorer,

380
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 1: making things get built and move around more slowly. And

381
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:12,200
Speaker 1: it is all just a concession to the emotionally unstable

382
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:16,320
Speaker 1: climate change lives. And he's doing an election year because

383
00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 1: some of them write big checks and he needs them.

384
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,600
Speaker 2: He's doing an election year also, buck because gas prices

385
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,159
Speaker 2: have come back to enough of an extent that he

386
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:26,439
Speaker 2: doesn't feel like he's going to pay a political price

387
00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:30,959
Speaker 2: on energy, at least right now. Now, we'll see what

388
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,719
Speaker 2: happens with gas prices. They typically rise in the summer

389
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 2: as everybody gets back out on the roads and everything else.

390
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:39,120
Speaker 2: We'll see whether that ends up being the case, and

391
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 2: whether there's a race back to try to get people

392
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:46,240
Speaker 2: to get the gas prices to come back down. But

393
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:49,359
Speaker 2: this is one of the things where I look around

394
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:53,120
Speaker 2: and it doesn't even rank in the top twenty things

395
00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 2: that I worry about. If you told me where does

396
00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:58,120
Speaker 2: where there are?

397
00:22:58,200 --> 00:22:59,639
Speaker 1: Do you worry about it at all? The I mean

398
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,280
Speaker 1: is there? And I have zero anxiety about this. I

399
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:04,400
Speaker 1: mean there are other things that the left is really

400
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:06,640
Speaker 1: freaked out about that I'll be like, I mean, that's

401
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 1: a little bit of a problem. I could to me,

402
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:10,480
Speaker 1: this is a zero problem. There is no problem.

403
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:14,240
Speaker 2: I'm building a beach house, so if I were worried

404
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:18,159
Speaker 2: about rising sea levels, I would not be investing the

405
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,200
Speaker 2: money that I am to do. And from what I understand,

406
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:22,720
Speaker 2: your climate footprint in this house is not going to

407
00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 2: be super small. It is out there, it is not

408
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:30,439
Speaker 2: going to be I am not diminishing the amount of

409
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:34,040
Speaker 2: I get. You know, this is one of the things

410
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:39,159
Speaker 2: that drives my wife crazy. I refuse to recycle anything.

411
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:42,159
Speaker 2: I think that recycling in general.

412
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 1: Is the biggest boots scandal, and it's mostly bad for

413
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:48,119
Speaker 1: it's actually mostly bad for the environment. You and I,

414
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 1: by the way, are totally I've been this way forever.

415
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,520
Speaker 1: People think that I'm nuts, And over time they all

416
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 1: come over to my side because they read, because that's

417
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 1: all I do all the time is read and do

418
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 1: this show. And when you read about recycling, you realize

419
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 1: it is garb bitch.

420
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:05,680
Speaker 2: I literally, and I you know, we have the everybody

421
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,200
Speaker 2: probably has a recycling bent at their house or whatever.

422
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,119
Speaker 2: And you're supposed to put what the amount of energy

423
00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:15,360
Speaker 2: that is spent on recyclable materials is more than if

424
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:19,159
Speaker 2: you just put it in a regular garbage right, So

425
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 2: there are no I don't worry about it at all.

426
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:26,359
Speaker 2: I have zero concern about global warming. And I think, uh,

427
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,880
Speaker 2: I think you said a while ago that global warming

428
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,879
Speaker 2: is a religion for people that don't believe in religion, right,

429
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:37,639
Speaker 2: that they have just bought into this idea that this

430
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:42,200
Speaker 2: is their purpose in life is to ensure that. And

431
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:45,440
Speaker 2: I mean, I just look at the history of the planet.

432
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:48,680
Speaker 2: We have gone through so many different cycles of warming

433
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,360
Speaker 2: and cooling. And you know what didn't get any attention either,

434
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 2: buck by the way, all the people who died from

435
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 2: the cold weather that just happened in my home state

436
00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:59,720
Speaker 2: of Tennessee. You know how every time there's a and

437
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,400
Speaker 2: it's awful but every time there's a tornado that comes through,

438
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:05,720
Speaker 2: or there's a hurricane that comes through, it's front page article.

439
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:07,960
Speaker 2: It says, well, this is a result of global warming.

440
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:11,120
Speaker 2: This is why people are dying because of there's more hurricanes,

441
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 2: and there's more tornadoes and everything else. The truth of

442
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:18,119
Speaker 2: the matter is, and this almost gets no attention, a

443
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 2: warming planet will actually cause less people to die. You know,

444
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 2: the cold kills way more people than the heat does,

445
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 2: and no one ever talks about it. Again, if the

446
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:37,119
Speaker 2: planet is warming, a warming planet will actually lead to

447
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:41,800
Speaker 2: fewer climate related deaths than we have right now.

448
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,480
Speaker 1: And cold kills far more people than heat.

449
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:50,880
Speaker 2: Overwhelmingly, like, this is scientific fact, and you never hear,

450
00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:54,440
Speaker 2: by and large anything about people who die in cold.

451
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:59,439
Speaker 2: I think I'm correct that over thirty people died of

452
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:03,199
Speaker 2: cold related ice related issues in my home state of

453
00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 2: Tennessee when we had this crazy cold snap, the coldest

454
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 2: snap that we've had in decades, that shut down schools

455
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:12,680
Speaker 2: for a week. People couldn't get out of their house.

456
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:17,800
Speaker 2: There's ice everywhere. Doesn't get hardly any attention. But for

457
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:22,040
Speaker 2: people get killed by a tornado, it basically is everywhere,

458
00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:26,240
Speaker 2: And again the data reflects that this.

459
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:30,920
Speaker 1: Is going to be long term.

460
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:35,199
Speaker 2: Colder weather climates kill far more people than warmer and

461
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:36,879
Speaker 2: I just never hear anything about it, So I am

462
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:40,159
Speaker 2: zero concerned about it. But this is indicative, as you said,

463
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:44,120
Speaker 2: of Biden just giving political gifts to people who are

464
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:48,760
Speaker 2: obsessed with a danger that isn't even to me worthy

465
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 2: of concern at all relative to some of the other

466
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 2: issues that are out there.

467
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:58,960
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a continuous problem that we see. But

468
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 1: whenever you have a policy that is pursued a government

469
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:08,680
Speaker 1: policy that is pursued with a religious zeal that does

470
00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:11,520
Speaker 1: not allow contrary this was certainly true of COVID by

471
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 1: the way, but doesn't allow contrary information to factor in,

472
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:19,879
Speaker 1: you run into huge problems. I've talked about this book

473
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 1: that I read years ago, actually, and it's dense. It's

474
00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,000
Speaker 1: not like the most fun read, but it's by James Scott,

475
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:30,440
Speaker 1: seeing like a state how certain schemes to improve the

476
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:32,960
Speaker 1: human condition have failed, and he just takes you through

477
00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:37,560
Speaker 1: case after case. Clay of the super smart government people

478
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,439
Speaker 1: got together and they decided we're going to all plant

479
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:42,959
Speaker 1: our trees this way because this is the smart way

480
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:44,680
Speaker 1: to plant trees. They didn't talk to people that actually

481
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 1: plant trees. They just said, this is a smart way

482
00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 1: according to the government people. And then they realize that

483
00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 1: they don't have the biodiversity they need, and they get you.

484
00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 1: One crop gets completely wiped out by certain beetles and

485
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,640
Speaker 1: or one strain of tree. They just create a disaster.

486
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:01,359
Speaker 1: They've done this with almost all environmental policy when you

487
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:05,640
Speaker 1: dig into it, right, not with all conservation. You know, sometimes, hey,

488
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:08,600
Speaker 1: we're losing all the manates. Manatees are cute. We should

489
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:12,040
Speaker 1: keep them alive. Let's stop killing manatees. Conservation efforts can work,

490
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:15,600
Speaker 1: but environmental policy that is, and I'm very much in

491
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:18,880
Speaker 1: favor of conservation, but environmental policy that is top down,

492
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 1: especially in the energy realm. I mean biofuels. For example, biofuels,

493
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:25,359
Speaker 1: if you actually look at it and what it's done

494
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:29,560
Speaker 1: around the world, they're inefficient. They can't be transported in

495
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 1: the same kinds of pipelines. They cause all kinds of

496
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 1: massive slash and burn farming because they're trying to get

497
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 1: the biofuel to a certain level where they can sell

498
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 1: it for the government subsidized price. It's a disaster. It

499
00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:46,000
Speaker 1: sounds like a good idea, but in practice, it's terrible.

500
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:51,840
Speaker 1: Natural gas is cleaner and better than oil gasoline, which

501
00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 1: is cleaner and better than coal, which is, you know,

502
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:56,360
Speaker 1: more efficient and better than take it all the way

503
00:28:56,400 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 1: back to whale oil. We are moving in a decarbonized

504
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 1: by technology and prosperity, and they keep trying to screw

505
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:05,560
Speaker 1: it up.

506
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:11,880
Speaker 2: Also, energy demand is there, so if we don't produce

507
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 2: more energy, it actually just puts more money in the

508
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:22,960
Speaker 2: pocket of our chief adversaries. Iran makes more money, Venezuela,

509
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:26,800
Speaker 2: who has been a mess, makes more money. Russia makes

510
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 2: more money. The best way to curtail the economic power

511
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:37,040
Speaker 2: of our chief adversaries, many of whom are reliant upon

512
00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,719
Speaker 2: the money they make off energy, is for us to

513
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:43,360
Speaker 2: produce more because it undercuts their margin and puts more

514
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:45,840
Speaker 2: money in our pocket instead their economies.

515
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 1: As we have figured out the hard way with Russia.

516
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:50,520
Speaker 1: Remember we were on the show. We're talking about the

517
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:52,720
Speaker 1: Biden people are saying they're going to bring the Russian

518
00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:55,640
Speaker 1: economy to its knees. They said that you don't ever

519
00:29:55,680 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 1: forget that. The smartest people in this Biden regime said

520
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,600
Speaker 1: that they were going to make Russia feel the pain

521
00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:06,560
Speaker 1: economically for its invasion of Ukraine. Russia has laughed at them.

522
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:09,960
Speaker 1: It has done nothing. Russian economy's fine. I mean it's

523
00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:11,880
Speaker 1: done a little bit, but nothing that's going to change

524
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:15,560
Speaker 1: anyone's mind about anything. But I'm telling them anytime anyone

525
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 1: wants to just really realize how how silly government policy

526
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,040
Speaker 1: can be, look at look at all these different environmental

527
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 1: mandates and all the you know, the whole thing about recycling.

528
00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:28,600
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, recycling. We could do a whole shows and recycle.

529
00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:30,880
Speaker 1: It's I hate it so much. I've always I've hated

530
00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:32,440
Speaker 1: it since I was a kid, because this just makes

531
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,720
Speaker 1: no sense. All that plastic are recycling. Most of it

532
00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 1: just ends up sent to third world countries and then

533
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:38,960
Speaker 1: it's put in their oceans and rivers by the way,

534
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:41,479
Speaker 1: so it goes into the eventually it finds its way

535
00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:45,960
Speaker 1: into the ocean anyway. And plastic is actually highly durable,

536
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:50,200
Speaker 1: highly useful paper. When they want to switch to paper bags,

537
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 1: when you look at the cost of what it does

538
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,560
Speaker 1: to trees and actually how much heavier it is clay,

539
00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,440
Speaker 1: so for transport purposes, it seems like who would care.

540
00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:00,960
Speaker 1: It's a lot heavier than plastic stick bags, So you

541
00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:03,560
Speaker 1: burn a lot more fuel moving this stuff around the world.

542
00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:07,080
Speaker 1: The net benefits of this are almost non existent if

543
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:09,200
Speaker 1: you can identify them at all. And how many years

544
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:12,000
Speaker 1: we go on paper or plastic? Hey here in the Free.

545
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,840
Speaker 2: State of Florida, which class paper tears and doesn't actually

546
00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:17,720
Speaker 2: allow you to easily care thing carry things, right, Anybody

547
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 2: who's come out of a grocery store, clay.

548
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 1: They won't give you bags in New York anymore. They won't.

549
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:25,920
Speaker 1: You have to like bring your own bag in a

550
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 1: lot of these grocery stores because we're trying to save

551
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,840
Speaker 1: the planet. These people are lunatics, all right. I got

552
00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:34,880
Speaker 1: something else to tell everybody. The Buckster's got a whole

553

Speaker 1: new game in town. My friends, He's got some skills

00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 1: I went less in the match versus Center because I

00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,120
Speaker 1: knew Center was going to be in fuego Danil Medvedev,

558
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:53,600
Speaker 1: this is tennis, everybody, I went more, so I didn't

Speaker 1: just go two less or two more. I went more

560
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:56,720

Speaker 2: the guru of the border for Donald Trump. Friend of

598
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 2: the program, he comes on quite frequently, but a lot

599
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 2: of people out there say, Okay, what does a Trump

600
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:01,600
Speaker 2: administration mean in terms of the border, How would they

601
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 2: handle things? What needs to happen? Stephen Miller is incredibly

602
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:11,200
Speaker 2: knowledgeable on how to secure the southern border. So that

603
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:14,240
Speaker 2: conversation at the top of the third hour is actually

604
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:18,239
Speaker 2: going to dive into, hey, what will be done? What

605
00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:21,680
Speaker 2: can be done by someone who is an expert on

606
00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:25,280
Speaker 2: border security? And I would encourage you guys to listen

607
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:27,480
Speaker 2: in that third hour. He's going to be on right

608
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:30,239
Speaker 2: at the top of the hour, but we're specifically focusing

609
00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:33,799
Speaker 2: on what's going on with the Fifth Circuit, what's going

610
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,920
Speaker 2: on with Biden and Texas. And given the fact that

611
00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:40,360
Speaker 2: it's a little over nine months from the election day, now,

612
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:44,160
Speaker 2: what would a Trump administration be able to do to

613
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:48,279
Speaker 2: fix things at the border and return some measure of

614
00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:52,320
Speaker 2: sanity to our federal immigration policy. I encourage you guys

615
00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:57,799
Speaker 2: to listen to that conversation. You know, Buck, After we

616
00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:01,800
Speaker 2: finished the show yesterday, I got blown up Patrick Swayze stuff,

617
00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:08,359
Speaker 2: and I am curious how many other people as we

618
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:12,080
Speaker 2: were going to break I mentioned this. The mini series
