1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of The Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:07,960 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Clay and Buck our three underway. Thanks 3 00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:11,159 Speaker 1: for rolling with us. You're just joining in now. Make 4 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:12,799 Speaker 1: sure you go back check us out on the podcast 5 00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:16,120 Speaker 1: on demand, The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, because man, 6 00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:17,680 Speaker 1: we got a lot to get to this hour, haven't 7 00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:21,360 Speaker 1: had a chance to talk about yet. And our friend 8 00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:23,959 Speaker 1: Tommy Laren joining us here in just a matter of 9 00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:26,480 Speaker 1: minutes bottom of the hour around two thirty Eastern time, 10 00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:28,640 Speaker 1: so please stick around for that. Got a new show 11 00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:32,360 Speaker 1: launched on OutKick, Lays of Sight, which is going to 12 00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 1: be fantastic. So you can tell a lot about this 13 00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 1: Biden regime by what they focus on obviously and what 14 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,879 Speaker 1: they don't, meaning that they're showing you more than they 15 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:45,760 Speaker 1: intend to. I believe a lot of the time. Don't 16 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:47,919 Speaker 1: spend as much, we shouldn't spend as much just on 17 00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:51,240 Speaker 1: what they say, but where are the resources going and 18 00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: what's being done at the federal level to tackle real problems. 19 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 1: We know they were asleep at the wheel in the 20 00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 1: baby formula crisis, and that's still going on at worst 21 00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 1: this month then last month in terms of how much 22 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 1: baby formulas on the shelves. So a couple of photos 23 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:07,840 Speaker 1: of a plane coming in from Germany with baby formula 24 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 1: may have been good optics, but it certainly didn't solve 25 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:15,280 Speaker 1: the problem. But beyond that, you can just look at 26 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: the focus that they have put on January sixth and 27 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 1: all these other distractions, the way that they have been 28 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 1: doubling down even on the need to teach children about 29 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:29,400 Speaker 1: gender identity, all these things, and the White House has 30 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,680 Speaker 1: been weighing in on. But then there are genuine crises 31 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 1: that seem to get almost no attention from this White House, 32 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:42,040 Speaker 1: and the drug overdose pandemic, and I do think it 33 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,760 Speaker 1: is fair to call it that in this country is 34 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 1: something that deserves a whole lot more attention. And I 35 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: think there are some reasons we should we should explore 36 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 1: as to why the media seems so much less interested 37 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 1: in this. I mean, first of all, if you're curious, 38 00:01:58,480 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 1: and I think all of us should be. Not only 39 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: was last year was the highest year ever for overdose 40 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 1: overdose deaths from drugs in the United States, over one 41 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 1: hundred thousand people. And unlike Clay and I were just 42 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 1: talking about the COVID numbers, where a lot of people 43 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 1: who are either hospitalized or died and listed as COVID 44 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,520 Speaker 1: as the cause. A lot of those instances were not 45 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 1: actually from COVID. When someone dies from a drug overdose, 46 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: they died from a drug overdose. So that's over one 47 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 1: hundred thousand people who are also overwhelmingly in the age 48 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 1: range of you know, eighteen to thirty five, maybe eighteen 49 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 1: to forty five. And so you're losing a lot of 50 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: people who are, you know, early in their lives. And 51 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,919 Speaker 1: there's a whole series of problems that have all come 52 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 1: together here with a wide open border. For example, So 53 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 1: last year was the worst ever for fentonel and general 54 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,120 Speaker 1: drug overdoses in this country. Over one hundred thousand people 55 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: died the first five months of twenty twenty two. According 56 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 1: to the Department of Justice, Clay more fentonyl seized, which 57 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 1: people might say, oh, that means we're doing better law enforcement. 58 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 1: That actually, to anyone who understands the drug trade, means 59 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: there's more fentonyl coming, meaning more of it's getting into 60 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: the country too. You're not actually stopping the flow, you 61 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 1: might be catching more of a larger flow, more fentinyl sees. 62 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 1: The first five months of twenty twenty two compared to 63 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, the first five months of twenty twenty two 64 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 1: surpassed all of last year. So we are already in 65 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: terms of fentonyl seizures beyond where we were. So you 66 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 1: can think that that's because of really aggressive law enforcement, 67 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 1: or you can think that that's because the drugs are 68 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: flowing in greater numbers. And you look at a city 69 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 1: like Oregon, where we talked about this briefly last week. 70 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 1: The Democrat city of Oregon run by Democrats. Democrat voters 71 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 1: made drug made drugs effectively legal fentanyl, cocaine, heroin for 72 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 1: personal possession, wouldn't arrest people for using this stuff out 73 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: in public. People were shooting up in downtown Portland with 74 00:03:56,760 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 1: heroin needles, clean needle programs, decriminalization. All all that has 75 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 1: led to is more people dying, more people using, and 76 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 1: more destruction of their downtown. What do you think it 77 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: takes for Democrats to realize that permissiveness is not kindness. 78 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 1: It's not the same thing that allowing people to destroy 79 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,839 Speaker 1: themselves is not the same thing as being as being 80 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: considerate and sympathetic to your fellow human being. Yeah, and 81 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 1: it's just part and parcel of the rampant lawlessness that 82 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 1: we are seeing. And I like to discuss years of 83 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: life lost when we are setting these records. Over one 84 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 1: hundred thousand people dying of drug overdoses. Fentnol overwhelmingly the 85 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 1: cause of most of those. You're talking about people in 86 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: their twenties, in their thirties and their forties, with their 87 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 1: entire lives left to be lived, that are dying. And 88 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 1: the lawlessnesses are Southern border is also contributing to the 89 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: lawlessness that exists all over the country. Buck, I'm looking 90 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: right now at a Fox News headline. We've talked a 91 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:12,919 Speaker 1: lot about homicide increases since twenty twenty. You went up 92 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 1: thirty percent in twenty twenty, up again in twenty twenty one. 93 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 1: We got a lot of cities out there where people 94 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: are listening to us. LA, Washington, DC, Baltimore, Milwaukee, and 95 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 1: Atlanta halfway through the year are all setting pace for 96 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 1: record homicide increases. Again, that's a wide scope of the country, 97 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 1: right east coast, all the way to the west coast, 98 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: the south, the Midwest. I'm headed to Atlanta here for 99 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,359 Speaker 1: Braves Game. As soon as this thing is over. People 100 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 1: in Atlanta are terrified with what is going on in 101 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 1: their crime rate. We know, Buck, We've talked a lot 102 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,919 Speaker 1: about all of the issues in LA including two cops 103 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 1: who got murdered, and I think we have the audio 104 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 1: associated with that from the mom who is furious over 105 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: the situations that have been allowed to exist in these 106 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 1: democrat cities and states and what is going on in 107 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 1: terms of the danger to everybody as a result. And 108 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:22,040 Speaker 1: I mean it's overwhelmingly difficult to listen to what these 109 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 1: people are saying in response to all of that, all 110 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: that violence. I mean, it just is brutal on an 111 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: absolutely epic level. This all relates back to bad ideas, 112 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 1: ideas that were pushed very heavily in twenty twenty, I 113 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 1: mean ending and this. I think there's also just a 114 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,280 Speaker 1: broader tie in here, Clay, where a lot of the 115 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: ideas of the left that end up having catastrophic consequences 116 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 1: for really everybody in society, just making everything worse, whether 117 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 1: it's defund the police, ending mass incarceration, legalization of the 118 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:03,600 Speaker 1: most hardcore drugs, A lot of it starts with an 119 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: appeal to conservatives, decency sympathy, and I would say innate kindness. 120 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: Come on, guys, we don't want to lock people up 121 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 1: forever for drugs, and that then all of a sudden 122 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: turns into yeah, so what if we found a gangbanger 123 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 1: has been arrested fifteen times with drugs in a legal firearm, 124 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 1: and maybe he's been threatening to kill a rival or 125 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 1: kill an ex girlfriend. But we want to end mass incarceration, 126 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 1: so you know, we're gonna let him go and we 127 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 1: see what ends up happening. And this is tied in 128 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 1: of course, to the shooting list, to brave officers, officers 129 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: who did answer the call, who did go into the 130 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 1: gunfire and exchange fire with that gang member who had 131 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: his gang literally tattooed on his face. Right, I mean, 132 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,280 Speaker 1: just so ever understands it's not really a tough call 133 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: for Gasco and the district attorneys. This. You know, this 134 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 1: isn't a an honor student who you know, got caught 135 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 1: up with the wrong crowd one afternoon and did some 136 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: graffiti somewhere. This was a hardcore gang member who killed 137 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 1: two police officers. But I just I bring it up 138 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 1: because the Democrat appeal and you hear there's the media 139 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: in the beginning. Come on, don't you guys want to 140 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 1: be nice, don't you want to do the nice thing? 141 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 1: And it's actually not nice in Portland to allow people 142 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: to do heroin out in the open and to overdose 143 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: and to choke on their own vomit and die. That's 144 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: actually not a kindness for those people. We should be 145 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 1: looking at what actually the results of policies are and 146 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 1: we should be trying to promote the yeah, the general welfare, 147 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 1: but also the individual welfare. You're not doing people any 148 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 1: favors by letting them destroy themselves out in public and 149 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 1: make their communities a nightmare for everybody else. And then 150 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 1: then you even get into clay. These drugs are different 151 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: than other drugs in the past. I mean, that's I 152 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: think another part of it that people need to understand. 153 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 1: The cartels make fentonel pills to look like pharmaceutical grade percoset, 154 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 1: to look to look like things that are made by 155 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:56,680 Speaker 1: pharmer companies that you've actually heard of, that doctors would 156 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,680 Speaker 1: prescribe people. And so a kid, you know, at sixteen 157 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 1: year old, that eighteen year old will take one dead. Yeah, 158 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 1: that's happening all over the country. And that's happening day 159 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 1: and day out the numbers are vast in every community 160 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 1: large and small. How much time has the Biden administration 161 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 1: put into tackling that problem versus how much time have 162 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 1: the Biden the Democrats put into January sixth, for example, 163 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:23,439 Speaker 1: But our democracies in peril. They show, Yeah, how much 164 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 1: attention have we even seen at the border period. The 165 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 1: only time we've seen a story at the border that 166 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 1: the Biden administration has commented on or the media has 167 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: been willing to press the Biden administration on was the 168 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 1: ridiculous made up story about the border patrol agents who 169 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 1: were whipping Haitian immigrants, even though that clearly is not true, 170 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,559 Speaker 1: and we talked about it last week that there's some 171 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 1: sort of consequences that are trying to be brought to 172 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 1: bear on that issue, But it speaks to the media's 173 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 1: failure to address issues that directly impact massive amounts of 174 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 1: the American public on a day to day basis. Again, 175 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 1: if you're in your twenties, thirties, and forties, COVID was 176 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 1: virtually zero risk to you, But the fentanyl, massive amounts 177 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 1: of drugs coming across your across the borders, and the 178 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:14,080 Speaker 1: number of people who couldn't go to their AA meetings, 179 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: or couldn't go to church, or couldn't have their normal 180 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:21,080 Speaker 1: social encounters that would have helped to keep maybe so 181 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:25,840 Speaker 1: much of this depression and anxiety and drug use down. 182 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 1: It all got taken away from them. And we're still 183 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 1: not even discussing all of the long term consequences of 184 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:38,840 Speaker 1: the worst American public policy decision in most of our lifetimes, 185 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 1: which was to shut down and allow all of these 186 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:44,560 Speaker 1: drugs to run rampant in our streets. And you see 187 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 1: any of the Democrats now in the city of Portland, 188 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:52,680 Speaker 1: including a candidate for mayor, are recognizing what has been 189 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,840 Speaker 1: done as a result of these were decisions that were made. 190 00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 1: This isn't just a thing that happened, and it's true 191 00:10:58,160 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 1: in many other cities when you look at the crime 192 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,200 Speaker 1: the crime in San Francisco, they have similar issues with 193 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:05,840 Speaker 1: the open air drug use clay. They're they're now talking 194 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 1: about putting all of the homeless encampments into these uh, 195 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:15,840 Speaker 1: these tiny homes essentially these almost like like a shack, 196 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 1: a prefabricated shack. And now that so they're going to 197 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: just create these massive open air homeless encampments with little 198 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:25,559 Speaker 1: with little houses and then they're gonna still be dealing 199 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 1: with a lot of the same problems though. I mean, 200 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 1: this is they they have created and an approval of 201 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 1: people doing this. They've said, okay, you want to be 202 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:37,720 Speaker 1: doing fentthetyl. Remember, anyone who's using fentetel in these places 203 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:39,719 Speaker 1: is going to be often selling it. That's how they 204 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 1: that's how they get the money to buy the fentetel themselves. 205 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:44,559 Speaker 1: They're going to be a part of that chain of transmission. 206 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 1: And they don't arrest them, and they don't say enough 207 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 1: is enough. And communities are being destroyed by this. You know, 208 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 1: these are ideas that the left has pushed that have 209 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 1: been wrong yet again, and I just think there needs 210 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 1: to be accountability for it. I think that Joe Biden, 211 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,560 Speaker 1: I mean, you brought up the border Clay. The border 212 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:01,679 Speaker 1: is wide open is a problem, not just because of 213 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 1: illegal immigration. It means that it's easier than ever to 214 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: get fentel across the border, which is which has killed 215 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 1: people that members of this audience are related to know 216 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 1: very well, taught in school all over the country. Yeah, 217 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,320 Speaker 1: I mean, and there's no sense of urgency from this 218 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: White House whatsoever to deal with this. Such a great 219 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 1: sense of urgency though on you know, climate, For example, 220 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: one hundred thousand people you're dying from fentantel overdoses. Look 221 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 1: at how much more time they spend talking about the 222 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 1: Green New Deal than about the drug epidemic we have 223 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,200 Speaker 1: in the country. So, you know, I think it just 224 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:42,440 Speaker 1: it shows you what they care about and the generally well, 225 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,080 Speaker 1: actually it's all I was gonna say. You can't even 226 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 1: generalize about where these overdoses are happening. It's all over 227 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 1: the country everywhere simultaneously. And the failure of the media 228 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 1: to hold the Biden accountable, the Biden administration accountable for 229 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 1: this in any way or even right about it or 230 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,560 Speaker 1: even care about it, especially because if it's aociation with 231 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:06,200 Speaker 1: the border is biased incompetence that's directly costing tens of 232 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 1: thousands of lives.

Although your dad red rimmed 272 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 1: glasses that he had were pretty extraordinary in that nineteen eighties. Look, 273 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 1: they make glasses like that now. No, no, but they'll 274 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 1: come back. They'll come back.

You might say, well, those are the kind 281 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,600 Speaker 1: of people that would follow you anyway, Clay that even 282 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 1: the government is saying it looks like only around twenty 283 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 1: percent of people out there who have kids around those 284 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 1: ages are going to be getting those shots for their kids. 285 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 1: So it's just worth paying attention to. By the way, 286 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 1: a lot of people wanting to weigh in on a 287 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 1: variety of topics. Rick from Florida, we were talking about 288 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: some of the continued revelations coming out about the Uvalde, 289 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 1: Texas shooting response, and Rick from Florida was an FBI agent, 290 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 1: he says, for twenty six years. What is your reaction 291 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 1: as more of these details continue to come out, Rick, 292 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 1: true appropriate that you're reserving comments as it relates to 293 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 1: what the officers act the actions of the officers were, 294 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 1: since we really don't know. But on the larger sense, 295 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: there's a couple of things, some questions that won't be answered. 296 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 1: But what was the drug uses of the subject there 297 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 1: in Evalding, What was the drug usage of the fellow 298 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 1: up in Buffalo Um. That's a question that to me 299 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 1: related to marijuana which ties into what you just talked about. 300 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 1: The second pieces, was that school district and they hide 301 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 1: and locked the door mode or did they train to 302 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 1: have the children in response to a threat respond um? 303 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 1: You know, we have we have trained a whole generation 304 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 1: of people to sit back and you know, hide in 305 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 1: the corner and hope that the bad guy doesn't shoot you. 306 00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 1: We have we have treated a young society here that's 307 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 1: not willing to stand up for itself. I'm not expecting 308 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 1: fourth graders to, you know, go take on a gunman. 309 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,960 Speaker 1: But if he's shooting everybody, if everybody takes their books 310 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 1: and desks and throw it at him, there's a response 311 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 1: that can be had. ISRAELI, Yeah, I appreciate the call. 312 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 1: I think I understand you're saying you're not expecting fourth 313 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 1: graders to respond. Look, I think that's all into the purpose. 314 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 1: Is kind of crazy to expect fourth graders to stand 315 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: up to somebody who has an AAR fifteen that he's 316 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,680 Speaker 1: trying to mow him down with. What I am concerned 317 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,919 Speaker 1: by is fuck the protocols that are put in place. 318 00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:33,160 Speaker 1: Everyone that we talk to who has trained in response 319 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:38,640 Speaker 1: to school shootings says, you go until you can't go 320 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 1: anymore in pursuit of this guy. And several of the 321 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 1: callers have said, if he's shooting at you, he's not 322 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 1: shooting at the kids, at least not intentionally. That certainly 323 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 1: not expect By the way, is not anybody who's armed 324 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: as a law enforcement officer in that situation would be 325 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,920 Speaker 1: willing to lay down their life to defense where you're defenseless. 326 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 1: That's the expectation.

And maybe that's a place Tommy or 360 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 1: I can ask you, I mean, what's going on with 361 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 1: the Biden regime. I'm looking at them and I'm saying, 362 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,160 Speaker 1: is this really all you guys have got at this point? 363 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:49,000 Speaker 1: The January sixth stuff, you know, pushing the transgender affirmation, 364 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 1: care for prepubescent kids and Green New Deal energy stuff, 365 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,160 Speaker 1: wide open border like this can't be all of it, 366 00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 1: but is it? Is it where we're actually going to 367 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 1: be up against? Well, listen, you know Joe bunden sell 368 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 1: off his bike the other day and that I'm just 369 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:07,959 Speaker 1: think it's really symbolic of how things are going in 370 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 1: our country right now. The toemstrompter could have arride that 371 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 1: bike for him. The teleprompter can't run our country. And 372 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 1: of course the democross all they have your identity, politics, 373 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:20,359 Speaker 1: witness and virtue signaling. They have to focus on any 374 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:24,439 Speaker 1: six They have to focus on LGBTQ. They have to 375 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:27,040 Speaker 1: focus on pro abortion. That is only that they have 376 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 1: in the tumtox in their buntry, so digital and so empty, 377 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:32,640 Speaker 1: that's what they got to focus on. They certainly can't 378 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:35,199 Speaker 1: focus on the economy or the border of any of 379 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 1: the things you just mentioned, because it's going so badly 380 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 1: for them.

Joe Biden, I was looking at the real 452 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 1: clear politics. They do the best job out there of 453 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 1: collating all the polls. Biden is below thirty nine percent approval, 454 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 1: and he's been down there at the lowest levels of 455 00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 1: his support for the last half of this month or so, 456 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,160 Speaker 1: continuing to go down as opposed to bounce back up 457 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 1: as Democrats need in time for the mid terms. Well, 458 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 1: Van Jones, who we've talked about before on this program, 459 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:56,520 Speaker 1: one of the more i would say rational and intelligent 460 00:24:56,640 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 1: analyst who looks at things from a Democrat perspective. He's 461 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 1: on CNN and listen to him slam the elitism of 462 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 1: the Democrat Party. Everyone who's in shock on this panel 463 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:13,399 Speaker 1: at CNN to suddenly hear the truth. We're in danger 464 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 1: of becoming a party of the very high and the 465 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:17,880 Speaker 1: very low. If you pull out the working class. You've 466 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 1: got people who are very well educated and very well off. 467 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,639 Speaker 1: Those people talk funny latin X. I've never met a 468 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 1: latin X. I've never met a bypoc, I've never met 469 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:29,480 Speaker 1: you know, all this weird stuff that is highly educated. 470 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 1: People say it's bizarre. Nobody talks that way at the barbershop, 471 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,879 Speaker 1: the nail salon, a grocery store, the community center. But 472 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,159 Speaker 1: that's how we talk down So that's weird. And then 473 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,440 Speaker 1: the people who are very low down on the economic 474 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 1: ladder need a bunch of stuff. You wind up overpromising, 475 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 1: but we're gonna give your reparations to people at the 476 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 1: bottom of the economic ladder. Talking weird to appeal to 477 00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 1: people at the topic now ladder, and the work class 478 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:55,120 Speaker 1: walks away from you. But this is what I hear 479 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 1: all the time, and this is where I come from. 480 00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 1: The sports perspective. Just talk to people like their normal. 481 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,720 Speaker 1: And we've talked about Latin X. We got a huge 482 00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:07,919 Speaker 1: number of people of Hispanic backgrounds that have no idea 483 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 1: what that means. BIPOC. I mean, there's a lot of 484 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 1: black and Asian and you know, this people of color reference, 485 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:19,680 Speaker 1: it doesn't work. It's it's an elite level of frankly 486 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 1: incompetence that is characterizing the Democrat Party right now. And 487 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 1: I think the only way you recognize this is with 488 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 1: a really big ass kicking, which I think they're going 489 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:31,440 Speaker 1: to get in twenty two and in twenty four they 490 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 1: think of just the belief behind using the term Latin X, 491 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:42,479 Speaker 1: which the Hispanic community does not use irrespective of their 492 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:45,960 Speaker 1: political persuasion Democrat Republican, they don't use this. No one 493 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 1: uses this except people who are a part of the 494 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 1: elite apparatus of the Democrats. And that's what's so interesting 495 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 1: is that those individuals also claimed to be using it 496 00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 1: on behalf of what they refer to now as marge 497 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:03,400 Speaker 1: enalized community is a very broad, very vague term intentionally so, 498 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 1: but it's because if you were to say Latino or Latina, 499 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:13,160 Speaker 1: you are using gendered language. This is fascinating, So does 500 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:17,720 Speaker 1: that mean now that the entire language, say, uh, you know, 501 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:21,640 Speaker 1: anyone who knows some of the Romance languages, European languages 502 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:25,359 Speaker 1: like French, Spanish, there's gender all over the place, right, yeah, 503 00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 1: the male and you know, male and feminine prone. Every 504 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 1: word has a has a gender as every word has 505 00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 1: a gender association. So are we now? Are we now? 506 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:38,160 Speaker 1: And by the way, this is again where we say 507 00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:40,879 Speaker 1: these things. And it used to be I think the 508 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 1: thinking was, this is the point on and I know 509 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:44,880 Speaker 1: I think we had a caller who said, you don't 510 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:48,119 Speaker 1: even need to have Lebron James go into the w 511 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,119 Speaker 1: NBA to prove the point. If you had, you know, 512 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,680 Speaker 1: a six foot eight college you know, men's college basketball player, 513 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 1: that person would probably score, you know, eighty points a 514 00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 1: game or something. So the example we use to expose 515 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:03,359 Speaker 1: the absurdity of the left, it's important to think that 516 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 1: everybody understands that the true left these days would actually 517 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 1: embrace the absurdity, meaning the next step. They already even 518 00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:14,960 Speaker 1: at a point their point now where they'll say no, no, 519 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 1: we wouldn't want to do that. It's just a question 520 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 1: what they think is politically achievable. So if they thought 521 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 1: they could get people to entirely change language, meaning the 522 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:28,679 Speaker 1: basic structure of language, like you know French, Italian, you 523 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:31,920 Speaker 1: know German, all these things that have masculine feminine pronoun usage, 524 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:35,359 Speaker 1: but also just nouns are masculine and feminine. You know, 525 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:37,520 Speaker 1: we have all these different words in our own language. 526 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 1: You know, we can't say you know, mankind anymore, right, 527 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 1: it's person kind. You see this, This is their control 528 00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 1: of language is as meant as manipulation. And you always 529 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 1: have to remember that. You know, our friend Chris Rufo 530 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 1: over the over the Weekend play shared the gender vocabulary 531 00:28:55,960 --> 00:29:01,000 Speaker 1: and how incredibly Orwellian it is because Orwell used to 532 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 1: write about about the usage of words to bring about 533 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 1: certain political outcomes. And that was not just in nineteen 534 00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 1: eighty four. I wrote many essays on this, gender affirming care, 535 00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 1: family friendly drag show, sex assigned at birth, completely reversible treatment. 536 00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 1: These are all phrases. This is from Chris Rufo that 537 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 1: you see everywhere. The mere usage of those phrases is 538 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:32,200 Speaker 1: oftentimes going along with things that are either in dispute 539 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 1: or flatly untrue. And that's why Van Jones is sitting 540 00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 1: there saying, hey, guys, they're starting to figure this game 541 00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:44,000 Speaker 1: out a little bit. And by the way, this is 542 00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 1: what drives democrats, I think particularly crazy. A lot of 543 00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 1: this is across racial lines. We were talking earlier about 544 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:57,880 Speaker 1: the idea of male swimmers, for instance, being able to 545 00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 1: identify as female swimmers. Do you know who overwhelmingly rejects that? 546 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:09,800 Speaker 1: Conceit Black sports fans, Asian sports fans, Hispanic sports fans, 547 00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 1: and obviously white sports fans. This is something that crosses 548 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 1: every line that supposedly is being used to identity politics 549 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 1: us in terms of big differences. It's something that brings 550 00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 1: people together because it's a fundamental why that is being 551 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 1: overwhelmingly rejected by all people who understand basic sports, and 552 00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 1: that's why I think it's so powerful, and that's why 553 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 1: Democrats can't even figure out how to defend it themselves. 554 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:45,520 Speaker 1: I mean, this swimmer reportedly said, I'm the Jackie Robinson 555 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 1: of swimming. No, no, no, you're a dude who decided 556 00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 1: to identify as a chick like Jackie Robinson was a 557 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 1: black man. He couldn't change that. You just decided I 558 00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:00,440 Speaker 1: wasn't that great of a male swimmer. Now I'm going 559 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 1: to be a great female swimmer. And you're going to 560 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 1: refer to yourself as the Jackie Robinson of swimming. It's 561 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:08,760 Speaker 1: insulting to anyone with a functional brain. And you could 562 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: also see how immediately the left gets very angry about 563 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 1: the notion of transracialism, which is fascinating on many levels, right, 564 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 1: meaning the idea that you could change your race. And 565 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 1: we have seen cases of people who have effectively said 566 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 1: or live their lives as though they were a different 567 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 1: race than what they actually were. Right, Yes, so the left, 568 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 1: the left does not super racist. That they say that 569 00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:37,959 Speaker 1: is super racist. And it's so interesting because even in 570 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 1: our even in our very are very broad, racial categorizations 571 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:48,200 Speaker 1: are highly are highly imprecise at best, right. I mean, 572 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 1: you'll you'll notice that there are people who are let's 573 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:55,000 Speaker 1: say they have, um, you know, of their four grandparents, 574 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 1: one is black, or one is Latino or what, and 575 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 1: they'll identify as that when in the reality is you're 576 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 1: actually many different things. Right, That's just who we all 577 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 1: are as human beings. We all have we all have 578 00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:08,200 Speaker 1: access to twenty three and me. We all see there's 579 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:09,840 Speaker 1: a lot of different things that make each and every 580 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,960 Speaker 1: one of us, but we have these very clear categorizations 581 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 1: that are laid out and that have political residence for people, 582 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 1: and that have, as the Supreme Court has referred to it, 583 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:21,720 Speaker 1: or at least one Supreme Court justice, the racial entitlement 584 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 1: state that has been built in this country, where certain 585 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:27,560 Speaker 1: skin color gives you certain things. That is the reality 586 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 1: of the affirmative action programs that exist in so many 587 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 1: places and that the Supreme Court is reviewing. Is that 588 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 1: this term, I think, or is that sets the fact 589 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 1: term that's gonna be the fault. But there's a reason why, 590 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 1: to your point, Buck, someone who's twenty five percent Hispanic, right, 591 00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 1: three white parents, one who is Hispanic, identifies as Hispanic 592 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 1: for purposes of applying to colleges. Because even though you're 593 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 1: one quarter Hispanic, that advantage is substantial or one quarter 594 00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:57,040 Speaker 1: is defensible. I mean, this is the other complaint about philis. 595 00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 1: This is morally indefensible. People play games with this all 596 00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 1: that time, and that's why I do think they've pushed 597 00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:06,480 Speaker 1: this all to a point where people who are acting 598 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:08,840 Speaker 1: in good faith and people who just wanted to be 599 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 1: left alone have realized they won't leave you alone. Meaning 600 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:15,200 Speaker 1: the Democrat apparatus is not going to say, hey, if 601 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:19,200 Speaker 1: you're just accepting of these different you know, of using that. 602 00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 1: You know it's not Please use the term latin X 603 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:25,560 Speaker 1: if you feel like doing it. It's just give a time. 604 00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:27,520 Speaker 1: Everybody's going to have to use that term or else. 605 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 1: Look what they've done with undocumented You hear that everywhere 606 00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 1: it's illegal immigrant folks. People are breaking the law. It's untying. 607 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 1: This endless. With the number one talking point now of Democrats, 608 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 1: I want you to listen to this montage buck of 609 00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:45,320 Speaker 1: the White House's latest catch phrase, which is recession is 610 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:48,720 Speaker 1: not inevitable. Biden said it today at Rohobath Beach. We 611 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:51,680 Speaker 1: played this in the first hour. Everybody is trying to 612 00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 1: sell this idea that the recession, which I believe has 613 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 1: already started. I think you do as well. It's not inevitable, guys. 614 00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 1: I don't think a recession is at all inevitable. Inflation 615 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 1: obviously is happening globally. A recession is not inevitable. Not 616 00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:08,440 Speaker 1: only is a recession not inevitable, but I think that 617 00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:10,920 Speaker 1: a lot of people are underestimating those strengths and the 618 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:15,160 Speaker 1: resilience of the American economy. This is the talking point 619 00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:18,920 Speaker 1: they're going to try to make speak into truth what 620 00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:22,520 Speaker 1: is not true, and if you challenge it, like Joe 621 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 1: Biden had earlier today, he snapped at the reporter that 622 00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:30,320 Speaker 1: they were not sharing factual truth by suggesting that a 623 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:32,279 Speaker 1: recession seemed like it was going to happen. But not 624 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:35,120 Speaker 1: only do we live in a society now where one 625 00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:39,680 Speaker 1: part of the ideological spectrum, democrats the left get very 626 00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:44,120 Speaker 1: aggressive about making everybody affirm what is untrue, right, say 627 00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:47,359 Speaker 1: this thing that is untrue or else, we also live 628 00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 1: at a time whereas you can see, they never admit 629 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:54,520 Speaker 1: that they were wrong. I mean that clearly spending about 630 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 1: two trillion dollars a year ago or more than a 631 00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:02,239 Speaker 1: year ago now fifteen months ago, was a catastrophically bad 632 00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:06,279 Speaker 1: idea for the economy. They call that the American Rescue Plan. 633 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 1: Remember Joe Biden for the whole year was bragging about 634 00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 1: how great it was. I would save so many people. 635 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:15,840 Speaker 1: Catastrophically bad for the economy, a lot of pain being felt, 636 00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:18,080 Speaker 1: and all these other issues we talk about. I mean, 637 00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:19,680 Speaker 1: COVID is the one that comes the most to mind 638 00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:22,040 Speaker 1: for me, because people that were they were so certain 639 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:24,719 Speaker 1: and they were so wrong. No one ever says I'm sorry, 640 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:26,719 Speaker 1: I got it wrong. Yeah, you know, no one ever 641 00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 1: says I shouldn't have forced upon you my beliefs via government, 642 00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 1: because I was actually way ahead of where the facts 643 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 1: may have been at that time. And now we're all 644 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:39,880 Speaker 1: suffering as a result, because that's where we are. We 645 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:42,360 Speaker 1: are suffering because of bad Democrat ideas. As a country, 646 00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:46,000 Speaker 1: This isn't happenstances, isn't just something that's occurring right now. 647 00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:50,239 Speaker 1: People made in powerful positions, bad decisions, and that's what 648 00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:52,560 Speaker 1: has led to the current you name it, fill in 649 00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:55,080 Speaker 1: the blank with anything that's really troubling you at a 650 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:59,640 Speaker 1: national level right now. And we cannot get fast enough 651 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 1: to the mid terms. Buck, I don't know about you. 652 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:04,880 Speaker 1: I look at the calendar and I think to myself 653 00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:07,759 Speaker 1: all the time. Are we going to be in a 654 00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:11,600 Speaker 1: spot where the Democrats are able to ram through another 655 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:17,160 Speaker 1: spending bill, another tax related attempt to change the tax codes. 656 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:21,600 Speaker 1: My concern is the answer is yes. But every single 657 00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:25,000 Speaker 1: day that ticks away without them effectively being able to 658 00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:28,600 Speaker 1: accomplish something to me as a win for the American economy, 659 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,840 Speaker 1: a win for the American people, a win for sanity. 660 00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:35,760 Speaker 1: And I'm hopeful that basically Republicans can win out the clock, 661 00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:38,000 Speaker 1: run out the clock because every single Republican needs to 662 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:40,200 Speaker 1: hold up their hand given where we are with inflation, 663 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 1: and say no more. We cannot allow this to continue 664 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 1: to occur lines
