1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:04,720
Speaker 1: Welcome everybody to the Wednesday edition of the Clay Travis

2
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:06,480
Speaker 1: and Bucked Sexton Show.

3
00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:09,960
Speaker 2: Oh my, we've got some big stuff to get into.

4
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:16,599
Speaker 1: First step here the Trump administration. The President is threatening

5
00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:19,040
Speaker 1: to pull out of Nato'm going it could be giving

6
00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 1: a speech tonight at nine o'clock addressing the nation about

7
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:27,520
Speaker 1: this whole situation in Iran. And I am sure, I

8
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:29,319
Speaker 1: think everyone, I'm sure he is going to have some

9
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:34,240
Speaker 1: very tough words for our NATO allies. And we shall

10
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:36,479
Speaker 1: give you some of those details of where that all

11
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 1: stands updates, of course on the ongoing Iran air war.

12
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:45,360
Speaker 1: It's really what this is, so we'll discuss that with

13
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:47,320
Speaker 1: you in detail. But Clay and I both spent the

14
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:49,559
Speaker 1: morning drinking our Crocket coffee.

15
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 2: It's accurate. There you go. It's important to add the

16
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:56,280
Speaker 2: Crocket coffee. It's April fools. People could be like, holy

17
00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 2: cal what are we stepping into today.

18
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:02,040
Speaker 1: I'm getting hit with crazy producer, a totally with a

19
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:04,399
Speaker 1: haymaker me. First thing this morning, I wake up and

20
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:07,119
Speaker 1: she says that she found a box of puppies and

21
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,319
Speaker 1: can we help people adopt them? And she knows I'm like, oh,

22
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,520
Speaker 1: you've found puppies, go I'll heldo. I'm all excited about her.

23
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,920
Speaker 1: I'm like, let's find people to adopt the puppies.

24
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 2: She unked me. She unked me big time. I knew

25
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 2: so this is you have not heard the update on this.

26
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 2: So I immediately thought, okay, this is I bought that

27
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 2: producer ally could have a box of puppies. And my

28
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 2: first thought was, we'll just give them away to listeners

29
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 2: and there will be it'll be kind of a fun,

30
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 2: nice thing to do. And then I love how you

31
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 2: saw it as a brand OPO right away. Yeah, immediately

32
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 2: immediately I was like, well, you know, let's give the

33
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,759
Speaker 2: puppies away to listeners. That'll be a happy thing, because

34
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,399
Speaker 2: it's not always happy talk on this on the show.

35
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 2: And then she said she was bringing him to the

36
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 2: studio and I was like, this is April fool. So

37
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:52,640
Speaker 2: it was that part that I was like, and by

38
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 2: the way, this is the part you don't know yet, Buck,

39
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 2: and we'll get into all the serious stuff. Producer, I

40
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 2: think it was producer Mike has a grandson. He told

41
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 2: his wife has been begging for a puppy. This is

42
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:09,200
Speaker 2: what Ali has created. Told his wife that he was

43
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 2: going to bring a puppy home for the seven year old,

44
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 2: and now the seven year old is crushed because there

45
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 2: isn't actually a puppy because producer Ali tried to pull

46
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,959
Speaker 2: an April Fool's joke. And now there's a crushed seven

47
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 2: year old in New York who was expected a puppy. So,

48
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 2: so your April Fools jokes. I saw your tweet. It

49
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:32,640
Speaker 2: is true. You got God already. So many people are

50
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:36,840
Speaker 2: getting got Ai and plus a lot of credulous people.

51
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,560
Speaker 2: There is just April Fools is on steroids. Now you

52
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 2: basically can't believe anything almost you hear all day.

53
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 1: Now, this is not an April Fools So we can

54
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 1: get back into this now. I'm giving you We're in

55
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:53,120
Speaker 1: an April Fools free session for a moment here because

56
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 1: as we're drinking our crack of coffee this morning, we're

57
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 1: listening to the Supreme Court oral arguments on this birthright

58
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 1: citizenship case, and Clay, there's a lot going on here.

59
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: To me, I know you listened. I was listening. Here

60
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 1: is the least the crux of the argument for me

61
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: was put out by us SO listener General John Sawyer

62
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,640
Speaker 1: and responded to by John Roberts. This is a little

63
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:22,080
Speaker 1: less than a minute long, but I want you to

64
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 1: hear this was just argued, you know, in the last

65
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:30,519
Speaker 1: hour or so earlier this morning Supreme Court play cut one.

66
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:34,639
Speaker 3: The media reports indicate estimates could be over a million

67
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 3: or one point five million from the People's Republic of

68
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 3: China alone. The congressional report that we cited in our

69
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 3: brief talks about certain hotspots like Russian elites coming to

70
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 3: Miami through these birth tourism companies, And I mean, here's

71
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 3: the facts about it that I think is striking. Media

72
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 3: reported as early as twenty fifteen that, based on Chinese

73
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 3: media reports, there are five hundred five hundred birth tourism

74
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 3: companies in the People's Republic of China. Who's what business

75
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 3: is to bring people here to give birth and return

76
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 3: to that nation.

77
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 1: And Chief Justice John Roberts responded that it's a new world,

78
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:18,599
Speaker 1: but it's the same constitution. And you say to yourself, okay,

79
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 1: hold on a second, so Clay, this listener general lays

80
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 1: out here that there are eight billion people in the world,

81
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 1: and it's really easy to come to America, and there

82
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:32,679
Speaker 1: is a systematic scamming of American citizenship that is going

83
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 1: on at scale today just with Chinese birth tourism alone.

84
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 1: We're not even talking about anchor babies coming across the

85
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 1: border and all that. And the response of John Roberts

86
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:45,919
Speaker 1: is basically, yeah, man, time's changed. There's American as apple pie.

87
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 1: You grow up in Beijing for eighteen years, you apply

88
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 1: to UCLA when you're an adult, You're not just getting

89
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 1: in state tuition. You're an American, as American as you

90
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 1: me and every American listening right now. I just think

91
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,280
Speaker 1: that's an untenable position. But that may be where the

92
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:02,279
Speaker 1: Supreme Court's going.

93
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 2: I got so many thoughts on this, and I cranked

94
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 2: up the television and I just tweeted some of them

95
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,599
Speaker 2: out if you want to go read it. But obviously,

96
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 2: to me, let's start with the guy's voice. He cannot

97
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 2: be the Solicitor general. And look, I'm saying this as

98
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 2: a lawyer. He may be a brilliant legal mind. As

99
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 2: I watched this argument play out, Buck and you just

100
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 2: heard it a little bit. The number one job of

101
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 2: an oral advocate is to be an elite oral advocate.

102
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:41,839
Speaker 2: His voice is awful, and so much of you know this,

103
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 2: But I think this is important so much because you

104
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,480
Speaker 2: don't have cameras in the courtroom. Almost all of this

105
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,599
Speaker 2: is going to spread now on social media, in the

106
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 2: marketplace of ideas. There's going to be a bunch of clips.

107
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 2: All of the justices were crisp, articulate. You may not

108
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:02,920
Speaker 2: agree with them, but their voices sounded and were completely intelligible.

109
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:07,159
Speaker 2: This guy, the US Solicitor General Sour Is it Sour

110
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 2: or Sawyer? I don't know how it's pronounced saueer.

111
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 1: I mean it was sig Sour would be the gun company.

112
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 1: So I'd say Sour is a good choice.

113
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 2: That you couldn't understand him at all. And I think this,

114
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,839
Speaker 2: given that President Trump is elite when it comes to communication,

115
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 2: I'm stunned that this guy is the advocate for this policy.

116
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:31,159
Speaker 2: Now that is on the pure optics, the way that

117
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 2: the argument gets out the law basically, here Buck, what

118
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:40,839
Speaker 2: they're debating is what did congressmen and women in eighteen

119
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,039
Speaker 2: sixty eight that have been dead for one hundred and

120
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 2: fifty years intend when it came to addressing citizenship in

121
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 2: the Fourteenth Amendment for a situation that they never could

122
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:58,040
Speaker 2: have conceived of in a modern day birth tourism, all

123
00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 2: of these different things. I think I want all of

124
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 2: you to prepare yourselves for this. I think the Supreme

125
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 2: Court is going to say President Trump doesn't have the

126
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 2: executive authority to be able to enforce this interpretation of

127
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 2: the Fourteenth Amendment unfortunately, Buck, I think this is going

128
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 2: to enshrine birthright citizenship as a constitutional right to And again,

129
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,679
Speaker 2: there's two different types. There's birth, there's citizenship by your parents,

130
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 2: and there's by soil. What is the issue here is

131
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 2: by soil. In other words, if you cross over the

132
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 2: border and have a baby in Texas from Mexico, your

133
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 2: kid is just as American as anybody out there who's

134
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 2: been in this country for hundreds of years and has

135
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 2: both parents born here. Buck, My big issue is this

136
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 2: is actually going to make birthright citizenship worse because now

137
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 2: all those five hundred companies that sour was citing are

138
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,560
Speaker 2: going to say, the US Supreme Court has said this

139
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 2: is the law and the land get into the United

140
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:57,760
Speaker 2: States by any means possible. Pregnant women have a baby there,

141
00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 2: Your kids are citizens just like you in me for

142
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 2: the rest of their life. Here's the ultimate indictment, though, Buck,

143
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 2: and this is a lot of people are not going

144
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 2: to focus on this. Congress can't fix it. Everybody's gonna

145
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 2: blame the Supreme Court. They're trying to apply an eighteen

146
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 2: sixty eight law based on an executive argument made by

147
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 2: President Trump. That is novel. President Trump is trying to

148
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 2: solve the issue because he knows Congress can't. Well, that won't.

149
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 2: I'm not sure.

150
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 1: They choose not to write. I mean, they clearly have

151
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 1: the power to. They could even do a constitutional amendment

152
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:35,559
Speaker 1: if they wanted to, but they don't because Democrats ultimately

153
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 1: are across the board, every Democrat. It is a it

154
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 1: is an article of faith in the Democrat Party that

155
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:47,080
Speaker 1: the birth tourism baby born here. And by the way,

156
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 1: it's conspiracy to lie on your visa. It's conspiracy to lie. Well,

157
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 1: you know, if you're interacting with Customs and Border Patrol

158
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 1: about your purpose of your visit. I mean, there's all

159
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: kinds of legal issues with that too. But then you

160
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 1: return to China, and this is the perfect example is

161
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,439
Speaker 1: because it is happening. We know it's happening at scale.

162
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:09,160
Speaker 1: It's a business. It is a business to scam American citizenship.

163
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,200
Speaker 1: Right now, people go to prison for it. It's a crime.

164
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 1: So this is actually happening. And what the Democrat Party believes,

165
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 1: and you cannot deviate from this is yes, the person

166
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,080
Speaker 1: who was born here, who then is going, who goes

167
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,560
Speaker 1: back to China and as part of a conspiracy to

168
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:29,080
Speaker 1: defraud the American government, is as American as apple pie,

169
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 1: as American as anybody else, and gets all the rights.

170
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 1: You know, you want us to die for this place.

171
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:36,960
Speaker 1: It has to be you want us to be willing

172
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,320
Speaker 1: to give our lives in the military. It has to

173
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 1: be more than a welfare state, a soup kitchen, and

174
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:48,320
Speaker 1: an economic zone. And they're they're really toying with making

175
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,320
Speaker 1: a lot of us just say, I'm sorry, what is

176
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 1: it that this country represents?

177
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 2: Again, what is it to be an American? Is it

178
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:55,079
Speaker 2: just a joke?

179
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 1: It's just a piece of paper that we can give

180
00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 1: to anybody for any reason that no country can sustain

181
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 1: that whatever they tell you, no country can endure.

182
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 2: They will have eroded sovereignty the point of no return.

183
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,960
Speaker 2: And again, there probably are going to be some people

184
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 2: who come on shows today and tell you, oh, this

185
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 2: went great. President Trump's order is in fantastic shape. It's

186
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 2: not going to happen. I would love to be wrong

187
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 2: and in June, if this decision comes down, or whenever

188
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,960
Speaker 2: it's going to come down, then I will be happy

189
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 2: to come on here and say, Wow, this is one

190
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,560
Speaker 2: of the most transformative decisions the Supreme Court's ever made.

191
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 2: This is the right decision. But I think they're not

192
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:42,680
Speaker 2: going to try. And again, the history nerded me love

193
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 2: that they're analyzing debates from eighteen sixty eight to try

194
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 2: to determine what the law was and is as it

195
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:52,439
Speaker 2: pertains the citizenship. What I would say is an immutable

196
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,080
Speaker 2: fact is if you could go back in time to

197
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 2: eighteen sixty eight in your time machine and you could

198
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:02,120
Speaker 2: say to every member of Congress in eighteen sixty eight, hey, guys,

199
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 2: by twenty twenty six, they're going to be debating what

200
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 2: you guys intend for people who hop on airplanes or

201
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,200
Speaker 2: people who illegally come into this country and have a

202
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 2: baby and then go back to live in other countries.

203
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 2: Whether those people are American citizens or not. They would

204
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,520
Speaker 2: have unanimously said, of course they aren't. Well.

205
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:24,000
Speaker 1: This is also why subject to the jurisdiction thereof is

206
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 1: so important, and there was a lot of debate and

207
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 1: a lot of back and forth about this specifically, so

208
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 1: and I'm just going to say this, this is why

209
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,560
Speaker 1: we should not have dual citizenship in this country. For

210
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,679
Speaker 1: any country, you can be an American citizen and that

211
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 1: is it. And when you look at why we have

212
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 1: dual citizenship, the arguments are super weak. So it should

213
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 1: be because keep in mind, also if you're a US

214
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:49,679
Speaker 1: citizen and a citizen in another country, we have extra territorial taxation,

215
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 1: so wherever you are around the world your subject to

216
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 1: US taxes.

217
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:56,840
Speaker 2: This is this is to me, Clay.

218
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:01,160
Speaker 1: You boil this down to whether being an American has

219
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 1: any meaning beyond something that can be effectively stolen through

220
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,680
Speaker 1: part of a criminal conspiracy, which is what birth porism is,

221
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,680
Speaker 1: for example, and whether being an American is something that

222
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,319
Speaker 1: will reward people for violations of law, which let's keep

223
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 1: in mind and anchor baby, the parents broke the law,

224
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,200
Speaker 1: and what happens is they break the law, the kid's

225
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 1: a citizen, and then the whole family gets sponsored through

226
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 1: chain migration to come into this country. So it's not

227
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 1: just for that kid who gets citizenship. They go to

228
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 1: the front of the immigration line. And this is how

229
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 1: this country is supposed to work. And by the way,

230
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:33,880
Speaker 1: all these things about doing the jobs we want to

231
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,560
Speaker 1: do and all this other stuff not true. And if anything,

232
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:41,080
Speaker 1: welfare usage much higher among the new arrivals. There's all

233
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 1: kinds of questions about what happens to assimilation processes in

234
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,440
Speaker 1: a country that's bringing in tens of millions of people

235
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:50,800
Speaker 1: in a short period. We're brought ten million illegals in

236
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,559
Speaker 1: under the Biden administration. Tell me that that we can

237
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 1: handle that through what we have thought of as assimilation

238
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,599
Speaker 1: in this country. Every wave of migration in America in

239
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 1: the past, clay has resulted in a period of clampdown.

240
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,440
Speaker 1: We we're like, all right, that's enough. Yeah, we got

241
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:06,439
Speaker 1: to all kind of lift together and figure things out

242
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 1: for a while. We're gonna turn this country into a

243
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 1: joke into a giant. It's just gonna be, like I said,

244
00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 1: one giant soup kitchen. Show up here, have your baby.

245
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 1: By the way, taxpayer expense. Oh and whatever medical issues

246
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 1: you have, taxpayer expense, because you know, we got nothing

247
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,079
Speaker 1: but money to spend. It's not like we're running a

248
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 1: thirty trillion dollar deficit, so or debt. Rather, Sorry, this

249
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:28,839
Speaker 1: is something that I think people need to really take

250
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 1: very seriously. But I agree with you. I'm not John Roberts.

251
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:36,200
Speaker 1: This whole thing John Roberts is basically like, is this insane? Yeah, tough,

252
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 1: that's the deal. We didn't really get to that part

253
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:43,440
Speaker 1: in that clip, but that is, unfortunately what his attitude was.

254
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, and again I come back to this is where

255
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:52,200
Speaker 2: Congress today, You know, it's figuring. This is one of

256
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 2: the flaws of originalism, right for those of I can

257
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 2: go on and on about this, but you're trying to

258
00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:01,079
Speaker 2: determine the intent of people. They based on a conception

259
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,560
Speaker 2: of a concept that they never could have conceptualized. Now

260
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:08,200
Speaker 2: I can say I feel very confident everybody in eighteen

261
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 2: sixty eight would have considered disinterpretation of what they did

262
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 2: today to be insane. But they're not here to tell us.

263
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 2: And unfortunately, Congress, which can act in theory, is incapable

264
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 2: of addressing what is an existential threat to the country.

265
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 2: And by the way back, has anybody even really thought

266
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 2: about this?

267
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 1: I just I don't like incapable Clay. They're capable, they

268
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:33,520
Speaker 1: won't do it because.

269
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 2: The unwilling to have the power unwilling. Here's the other thing.

270
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,520
Speaker 2: Is anybody ever really thought about this? If there are

271
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:44,360
Speaker 2: a million illegal uh a million American citizens in China,

272
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 2: think about this for a sec Those million people could

273
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 2: just move to Wyoming and take over the state of

274
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 2: Wyoming or any other small Western state and make it

275
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 2: a communist state. Is anybody ever.

276
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 1: Speaking we know English? There is American as you and me.

277
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 1: That's what democrats believe, all right. For those keeping track,

278
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 1: the price of gold reached new highs within the last

279
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 1: ten weeks, growing up about five thousand dollars an ounce.

280
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,240
Speaker 1: For early investors, it was great news on their decision

281
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,160
Speaker 1: to diversify with a gold investment. Look, gold prices have

282
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:15,880
Speaker 1: softened them the last month, So what does that mean?

283
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 1: If you believe in the long term thesis, it is

284
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 1: a buying opportunity in gold right now. Central banks are

285
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 1: still buying up gold, Global instability, the straight of horror moves.

286
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 1: Plenty of things happening right now that as they play out,

287
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:29,960
Speaker 1: could drive gold prices even higher. And if you're looking

288
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 1: long term gold makes sense. Go with Birch Gold Group.

303
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 2: we are speaking to all of you. The Artemis two

304
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 2: crew is suiting up ahead of their launch down in

305
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 2: Florida to return to orbit the Moon for the first

306
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:35,080
Speaker 2: time in decades. Jared Isaacman was on with us yesterday,

307
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 2: the head of NASA, talking about how this is setting

308
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 2: the table for a Moon base and one day humans

309
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:45,320
Speaker 2: on the surface of Mars, which is pretty cool.

00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,560
Speaker 1: Final Frontier favorite movie.

312
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 2: I'm leaving a very broad here. That's a very good question.

313
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 2: I don't even know that I that I have one.

314
00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 2: That is, I probably what Paul thirteen. Probably it was

315
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,240
Speaker 2: Paul thirteen right with Tom Hanks about the space crew

316
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:11,159
Speaker 2: and having to come back. I think that's the answer.

317
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 2: Is there a better one?

318
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,880
Speaker 1: That's the answer I would expect from somebody who spent

319
00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:20,000
Speaker 1: his vacations going to Civil War camp and Supreme Court arguments, fine.

320
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:28,040
Speaker 2: Aliens, wars and stuff everything big Nerd. Star Wars is

321
00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,479
Speaker 2: the answer. I mean Star Wars. I thought you meant

322
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 2: like an actual space move Star Wars. Empire strikes back,

323
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 2: Empire strikes back. That's respectable.

324
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:40,920
Speaker 1: You've gone, You've gone less Nerd Apollo thirteen.

325
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:43,440
Speaker 2: Well, I thought you were specifically saying like a real

326
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 2: not science fiction. Did you go to NASA camp too?

327
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 2: With Clic? I ought to be an astronaut one day.

328
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,440
Speaker 2: I want to be zero gravity. Wara has been to

329
00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:54,439
Speaker 2: space camp multiple times, I think, but with our boys,

330
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 2: because they have parent kid space camp. That's cool. Well

331
00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,640
Speaker 2: that's like a nice family thing. Yeah, yeah, she's been

332
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:02,639
Speaker 2: multiple times. I think she's ready to go to space

333
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,679
Speaker 2: if she needed to. So yeah, I mean Star Wars

334
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:07,359
Speaker 2: is the obvious answer. But I thought you met like

335
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 2: actual rocket space, like real life time.

336
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 1: You've seen aliens, right, yeah, wow, oh oh oh oh,

337
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,879
Speaker 1: light him up, everybody, light him up. He's throwing James

338
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:22,720
Speaker 1: Cameron's aliens. He's not giving that it's due. That's madness

339
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:22,879
Speaker 1: to me.

340
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 2: Madness. So Artemis two that is going to take off

341
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 2: SpaceX going public. I think that's probably intentional to double

342
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 2: up there. For the biggest ipo potentially in the history

343
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,640
Speaker 2: of capitalism supposed to happen in July. Would not shock

344
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,200
Speaker 2: me if you must tried to do it around July fourth,

345
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 2: If that's true, to celebrate America's two hundred and fiftieth

346
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,479
Speaker 2: I can see a lot of positivity associated with that.

347
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,520
Speaker 2: But Buck, I am still super fired up. I was

348
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:59,360
Speaker 2: watching all the birthright citizenship arguments and I thought, let

349
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 2: me give you a couple of things. First of all,

350
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 2: and again this is nerding out, there is a difference

351
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:09,159
Speaker 2: between two different types of citizenship. One of them is

352
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:12,679
Speaker 2: not controversial at all. If your parents are citizens of

353
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,679
Speaker 2: a country, then you should become a citizen of that

354
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,359
Speaker 2: country when you are born. I think everybody gets that,

355
00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:22,399
Speaker 2: and that applies even if you are on a base

356
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:25,600
Speaker 2: in Germany. Or one day, if you're on Mars and

357
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,159
Speaker 2: you have and your parents are American and they have

358
00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 2: a baby, you should be an American citizen. I think

359
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:33,159
Speaker 2: everybody gets it. The other one is by soil, and

360
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 2: I didn't think that the advocate here, John Sower, really

361
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:40,679
Speaker 2: did a good job historically explaining what's going on personally,

362
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 2: because by soil citizenship is very rare and nowhere in Europe.

363
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,080
Speaker 2: He did mention, we played that audio, you can't become

364
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:51,840
Speaker 2: a citizen in China. You can't become a citizen of Japan.

365
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 2: So I have got two different things that to me,

366
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 2: buck would make sense. All right, solutions right, because Congress

367
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:03,440
Speaker 2: can't do any we did like, won't do anything, can't

368
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 2: manage to get anything passed. However, you want to contextualize this,

369
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:09,960
Speaker 2: but tell me what you think about these two solutions.

370
00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:17,240
Speaker 2: One mutuality. If we can't become citizens of your country,

371
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 2: then you should not be able to become citizens of

372
00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:24,359
Speaker 2: our country. Let me explain how that would work. If

373
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 2: you and I got invited to Beijing and one of

374
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:31,440
Speaker 2: us had a wife who was pregnant. Laura has had

375
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 2: three Let's say carry is pregnant and suddenly she had

376
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 2: a baby in Beijing, that baby would not be Chinese.

377
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:44,439
Speaker 2: Why should Americans be able to travel to China and

378
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 2: have babies there and their kids do not. Our kids

379
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:52,679
Speaker 2: do not become citizens of China, but Chinese citizens become

380
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 2: citizens of America. One easy solution to me, that is

381
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:04,320
Speaker 2: very commonplace is reciprocity. If you are not doing for

382
00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 2: us what we are doing for you, then it should

383
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:11,360
Speaker 2: not exist. That seems very logical, very common sense. There's

384
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:16,679
Speaker 2: a lot of examples of this. For instance, in law,

385
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:21,800
Speaker 2: sometimes you can wave in to other jurisdictions and become

386
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:25,719
Speaker 2: a lawyer for purposes of practice in other states. But

387
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:29,120
Speaker 2: it's very common that if one state, let's say I'm

388
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:33,399
Speaker 2: licensed in Tennessee right now, I can't become a lawyer

389
00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:37,680
Speaker 2: in Florida by just waving in. I don't think or California.

390
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:41,679
Speaker 2: And so if California and Florida will not allow that

391
00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:44,040
Speaker 2: to happen, then I think Tennessee will not allow you

392
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 2: to wave in from those states because we're being treated differently.

393
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,800
Speaker 2: Reciprocity makes very much sense to me. That's one. I

394
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,400
Speaker 2: don't know if it could pass, but I'm gonna ask

395
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 2: Jim Jordan that seems very reasonable. It's a way to

396
00:21:56,080 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 2: go after birthright citizenship, because I doubt that China is

397
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,200
Speaker 2: going to suddenly say, oh, by the way, you can

398
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:06,920
Speaker 2: travel Americans to China and all your people become Chinese

399
00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,880
Speaker 2: citizens as well. Now, Buck, you don't think dual citizenships

400
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:11,959
Speaker 2: should exist, I kind of agree with that in theory.

401
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,080
Speaker 2: But this is one way to chip away at the

402
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 2: concept of birthright citizenship by saying you have to treat

403
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 2: Americans as we are treating you. If you're going to

404
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,560
Speaker 2: take advantage of our country, then Americans should have the

405
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 2: ability to take advantage of your country too. What it creates, unfortunately,

406
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,240
Speaker 2: because America is so much better than other countries, is

407
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:34,000
Speaker 2: some countries might be willing to create that mutuality.

408
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:37,200
Speaker 1: I'm sure Somalia would be like, hey, if you want

409
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,480
Speaker 1: Somemali's citizenship, we'll trade you.

410
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 2: Okay. So but the problem is Somali, we have it

411
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:44,960
Speaker 2: right now already. But what it would do is if

412
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,560
Speaker 2: there's truly millions of people doing this from China, I

413
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 2: think it would strip away of Chinese China's ability, for instance,

414
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 2: and Japan and all the European countries from being able

415
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,120
Speaker 2: to take advantage of this. Okay, here's a second one.

416
00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 2: What if when you enter the country, we insisted that

417
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:06,160
Speaker 2: if you are pregnant, you have to spend multiple months

418
00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 2: in this country instead of being able to travel in

419
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:12,359
Speaker 2: for a week or two. Take advantage of all of

420
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 2: the American medical treatments. I don't know about you when

421
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:19,040
Speaker 2: you went through pregnancy. First of all, it's reckless when

422
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,399
Speaker 2: someone is eight months pregnant to put them on an

423
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:24,320
Speaker 2: airplane and decide to fly them from a foreign country

424
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 2: or seven months pregnant or whatever else. At some point

425
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,840
Speaker 2: in time, you remember this, buck, they said, hey, it's

426
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:32,000
Speaker 2: probably better for you not to be on an airplane

427
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,119
Speaker 2: for a long flight if you're a pregnant woman. That

428
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:39,399
Speaker 2: is very standard advice. If we said you cannot be

429
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 2: in the United States for a short period of time

430
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,720
Speaker 2: four months, five months, you have to spend in this

431
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:48,679
Speaker 2: country in order for your child to be considered an

432
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:53,160
Speaker 2: American citizen, I think that would also interdict drive back

433
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:55,880
Speaker 2: the chances of people being able to come to the country.

434
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:59,919
Speaker 2: So both of those seem like reasonable ways to it

435
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:05,440
Speaker 2: dress constitutionally. A decision that is likely to come down

436
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 2: from the Supreme Court that says, hey, birthright, citizenship by

437
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 2: soil is constitutional. Do those seem like somewhat reasonable? Rational? Again,

438
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:19,160
Speaker 2: I know reasonable and rational doesn't get passed often by Congress,

439
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 2: But both of those seem like reasonable, rational ways to

440
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 2: try to dial back the incentive of people coming here

441
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 2: just to have babies so that they're American citizens. Yeah,

442
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:33,439
Speaker 2: they're reasonable and rational. The Democrats won't want them, but

443
00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:38,120
Speaker 2: can Republicans pass them? I'm sorry, do you think Republicans

444
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,879
Speaker 2: could pass them in the limited amount of time that

445
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:42,320
Speaker 2: we have. I don't have a lot of faith in

446
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:45,120
Speaker 2: Republicans either. Like we can say, Democrats won't pass them.

447
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 2: Republicans can't pass anything either, and we've got the House

448
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,879
Speaker 2: and the Senate by large, we can't get anything done.

449
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:54,640
Speaker 2: I think this filibuster thing is done. Yeah.

450
00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 1: Not the filibuster as a basic concept, which I think

451
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:05,159
Speaker 1: goes all the way back to the origins of the

452
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 1: term filibuster has to I think it has to be.

453
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:10,159
Speaker 1: The word itself is like French, it has to do

454
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:15,320
Speaker 1: with like pirates. I'll get back to that in a second. Basically,

455
00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 1: it's like you're hijacking the situation is what a filibuster is.

456
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:23,600
Speaker 1: But I think that we don't have a sixty vote

457
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:25,960
Speaker 1: requirement in the constitution. Why are people pretending like we

458
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 1: have a sixty vote requirement in the Constitution. And people

459
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,959
Speaker 1: are saying, oh, well, Democrats will do all these crazy things. Okay, well,

460
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:33,879
Speaker 1: then the American people can see the crazy things they

461
00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 1: do and make decisions based upon it. There's still a

462
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 1: lot of bad laws that have been passed even with

463
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,680
Speaker 1: this requirement. It just feels like this is an incumbency

464
00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 1: protection program where nobody ever has to take a hard

465
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:45,720
Speaker 1: vote and nobody ever has to actually live with the

466
00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:49,639
Speaker 1: consequences of getting what they want. I don't know, I've

467
00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:51,280
Speaker 1: started to become a little more radical on this. People

468
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:53,000
Speaker 1: are sitting here, they're going, what about the Save Act.

469
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:56,199
Speaker 1: I'm like, yes, yes, great, never gonna happen unless they

470
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:57,919
Speaker 1: get rid of the philibuster. You'll say, oh, but what

471
00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 1: about if we use parliamentary procedure in the standard philibuster

472
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,760
Speaker 1: and we show the American people, Okay, nice idea. Still

473
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:06,480
Speaker 1: not going to get the Save Act. Democrats won't do it.

474
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:09,639
Speaker 1: Republicans won't even all do it, by the way, so

475
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:12,479
Speaker 1: that's not concerned. We can't get anything passed. And this

476
00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:14,440
Speaker 1: is where I get so many of you out there

477
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,520
Speaker 1: so frustrated that we've got I don't know how often

478
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 1: it's going to happen, Buck, that we have a Republican president,

479
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:24,679
Speaker 1: Republican Senate, Republican House, all three right now, we have

480
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:27,399
Speaker 1: in theory a majority of Republican appointees and on the

481
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,480
Speaker 1: Supreme Court, and yet it feels like they can't do anything.

482
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,679
Speaker 1: We need to start just living with the consequences of elections.

483
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:37,120
Speaker 1: And that means if you win the House, you win

484
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,399
Speaker 1: the Senate, and you win the presidency, you get to

485
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:41,679
Speaker 1: do things within the you know, within the scope of

486
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 1: the Constitution, you get to do things. Elections have consequences.

487
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 1: We have this sort of halfway thing of like nobody

488
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:51,199
Speaker 1: ever has to really no, America should get what it

489
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,080
Speaker 1: wants and get it long and hard, like we should

490
00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:56,840
Speaker 1: actually have a government that can take action that is

491
00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,919
Speaker 1: meaningful beyond some of these carve routes that we have.

492
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:01,560
Speaker 1: You know what, you know what, they don't have this

493
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 1: issue with budgets. You know why everybody wants to spend, spend, spend, spend,

494
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:11,119
Speaker 1: easiest thing in the world. Everybody in Congress, they're all

495
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,240
Speaker 1: a bunch of little piggies at the Treasury trough and

496
00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:17,399
Speaker 1: they don't want to stop. The spending is automatic. Everything

497
00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 1: else is like, mah, can we name a post office? Sure,

498
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:25,200
Speaker 1: it's it's absurd, it's absurd, this whole sixty vote filibuster thing.

499
00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:27,400
Speaker 1: I know, people are like, no, it's important to senate

500
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 1: tempers the passions. Now it's made up. Get rid of it. Actually,

501
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,240
Speaker 1: just have people vote and get there again. We have

502
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:36,760
Speaker 1: a constitution, we have an anchoring system for it. They

503
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,160
Speaker 1: can't just do anything. You know, we have laws in place,

504
00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,639
Speaker 1: we have statutes. But what all it means, Clay, is

505
00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 1: that you know, you know, in the last time somebody

506
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:48,080
Speaker 1: got a super legend, you know, got the super legislative majority,

507
00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:49,560
Speaker 1: it was Obamacare.

508
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:52,200
Speaker 2: Which is a disaster, a disaster. Well, and so.

509
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:54,480
Speaker 1: You're sitting here like, well, what exactly are we uh,

510
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:58,359
Speaker 1: you know, we're holding ourselves back from doing a good

511
00:27:58,400 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 1: thing with the Save Act.

512
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:04,080
Speaker 2: This is why President Trump has enacted so much of

513
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 2: his agenda through his executive authority, which then this morning,

514
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 2: the only reason the border is secure is because President

515
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 2: Trump issued his executive authority. The reason why we bombed

516
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:21,960
Speaker 2: Ron was there's typically more credence or space given to

517
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 2: presidents and format.

518
00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:25,440
Speaker 1: But I get why exactly this is what I'm saying.

519
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:27,119
Speaker 1: He has the powers though to do this. So the

520
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:28,760
Speaker 1: executive order is really just a way of saying, the

521
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:30,879
Speaker 1: President chose to do the thing that he's allowed to do,

522
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:34,080
Speaker 1: allowed to do right, they can carrying out whether he

523
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:37,840
Speaker 1: has the ability to do it right through separation of powers,

524
00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:41,880
Speaker 1: which is the big picture question. But again the frust

525
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:45,040
Speaker 1: everybody's going to be angry at the Supreme Court when

526
00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 1: we're when we're predicting that they say birthright citizenship is

527
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:51,120
Speaker 1: the law of the land. Where I'm saying is your

528
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:56,280
Speaker 1: anger should actually be with Congress because they won't fix anything.

529
00:28:56,640 --> 00:29:01,920
Speaker 2: They're basically worthless. And if Democrats take back control of

530
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:05,880
Speaker 2: the House, they're gonna impeach President Trump. Nothing's going to happen.

531
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 2: And I'm almost to the point where I just am like,

532
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 2: just don't do anything. I don't know that they're making

533
00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 2: anything better for anyone's life most years that they are

534
00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 2: on Capitol Hill.

535
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:23,280
Speaker 1: By the way, clay filibuster comes from the Dutch freebooter,

536
00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:27,440
Speaker 1: which is a freebooter or a pirate, and it passed

537
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:31,120
Speaker 1: into the French with from Freebooter to Villa Bustier and

538
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 1: Fulibustero to describe Caribbean pirates, so to filibuster is in

539
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:40,080
Speaker 1: fact to be a pirate among Congress.

540
00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:44,120
Speaker 2: I love that history. I didn't know that. I will

541
00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 2: say this.

542
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:46,320
Speaker 1: He looked at me like I was insane when I

543
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,760
Speaker 1: was by the way he was. He looked at me

544
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:50,400
Speaker 1: like I needed a nap or something like I was

545
00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 1: pulling a full Biden here.

546
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,920
Speaker 2: Pirates of the Caribbean. I know the parlay concept. We

547
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:57,560
Speaker 2: need to parlay. That's a great series of movies. I

548
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:01,000
Speaker 2: will say buck the other part about the filibuster, as

549
00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:04,000
Speaker 2: soon as Democrats have control, they're going to do away

550
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 2: with it. Talking about standing up for a principle that

551
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:12,800
Speaker 2: the other side will not respect when they have the

552
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:14,600
Speaker 2: opportunity to do away with it.

553
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,200
Speaker 5: It's not even a principle. What is the principle? I

554
00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:20,960
Speaker 5: get it won the election. This is a self imposed principle.

555
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 5: This is like, we could win, but we don't want

556
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:24,680
Speaker 5: to win because winning is mean.

557
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:27,840
Speaker 2: What are you talking about? It makes no sense. It

558
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 2: makes no People.

559
00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:31,400
Speaker 1: Say Democrats will do these insane things, okay, and we'll

560
00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 1: see the insane things that they're trying to do or

561
00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:34,400
Speaker 1: that they do well.

562
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 2: I think I think that if they win back control

563
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:40,080
Speaker 2: of the of the presidency in the House and the Senate,

564
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:43,000
Speaker 2: I think that they will expand the Supreme Court. I

565
00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:46,680
Speaker 2: think that they will decide to give statehood to places

566
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:50,400
Speaker 2: like Washington, d C. To add senators, and I think

567
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 2: they'll do it by a bare majority. So for people

568
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:54,960
Speaker 2: out there who are saying and there are a lot

569
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:57,880
Speaker 2: of Republicans that say that, well, we've got to stay

570
00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:01,240
Speaker 2: committed to not doing away with the pciple. Biden tried

571
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 2: to do away with it. The only reason that it

572
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:07,280
Speaker 2: didn't happen was because you had Joe Manchin in West

573
00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:11,480
Speaker 2: Virginia and because you had Kirsten Cinema in Arizona. Oh,

574
00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 2: by the way, they're not there anymore. Who are the

575
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 2: Democrats that are Maybe Fetterman. Maybe Fetterman would say, hey,

576
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,080
Speaker 2: this isn't a good idea other than that they do

577
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:22,920
Speaker 2: they're going to do away with it. I'm just telling you, so,

578
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:26,280
Speaker 2: the idea of not doing away with it, because it's

579
00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 2: important precedent, the president's going to get tossed out the

580
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 2: way as soon as they have the power to do it.

581
00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:34,680
Speaker 1: Do you guys think after eight years of Democrats losing

582
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,720
Speaker 1: their minds over Trump, they're going to be reasonable if

583
00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:39,600
Speaker 1: they remember this is only if they win the presidency.

584
00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 1: At the Congress, you know, the House and the Senate, right,

585
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 1: but if they win all three of those, you think

586
00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 1: that they're going to be reasonable.

587
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,960
Speaker 2: They're going to keep the filibuster after Trump for eight years?

588
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 2: No way, No, I agree. I agree. Look, we want

617
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:30,720
Speaker 1: Jim Jordan, Member of Congress with us right now from

618
00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:34,760
Speaker 1: the Great State of Ohio. Congress and Jordan, thanks for

619
00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 1: being here. Sir, Clay is saying that your your August

620
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:44,640
Speaker 1: Institution of the Congress largely to blame collectively, not you, sir,

621
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:49,160
Speaker 1: of course, but to blame collectively for the mess that

622
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:53,240
Speaker 1: is citizenship by birth, immigration, all this stuff.

623
00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:55,320
Speaker 2: Right now, after the Supreme Court argams.

624
00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:58,320
Speaker 6: What do you think, Well, I think that I think

625
00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:01,120
Speaker 6: our argument is actually strong in the President's position, it

626
00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:03,400
Speaker 6: is our position. We follow the meetings brief with the

627
00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:07,000
Speaker 6: with the Court. That you know, when you look at

628
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:09,280
Speaker 6: the fourteenth Amendment, there's that key clause and there subject

629
00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:12,320
Speaker 6: to the jurisdiction thereof. And I think that's important because

630
00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:16,360
Speaker 6: if someone comes into your country illegally and and and

631
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:19,520
Speaker 6: gives birth to a to a child here, that that

632
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:23,440
Speaker 6: shouldn't because they were here, weren't subject to the jurisdiction

633
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:26,400
Speaker 6: there because they were in, you know, in illegal fashion.

634
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:29,239
Speaker 6: I think that's important. And that's that's kind of I

635
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:31,040
Speaker 6: think where you hang your hat when you're making the

636
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 6: argument that we're making. We'll see what we'll see if

637
00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:36,840
Speaker 6: the Supreme Court buys it. You know, I hadn't had

638
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:39,839
Speaker 6: a chance to listen to the debate today, but we'll

639
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 6: just have to see.

640
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:43,520
Speaker 2: Jim, thanks for coming on. Okay, I'm going to hit

641
00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:46,480
Speaker 2: you with two things that so I think this is

642
00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:48,400
Speaker 2: not you signing on to this opinion. I think the

643
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:50,719
Speaker 2: Supreme Court is going to say the President doesn't have

644
00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:53,759
Speaker 2: the executive authority to do this, and so I just

645
00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:57,120
Speaker 2: want to hit you with a hypothetical. If you know

646
00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,959
Speaker 2: Buck's lovely wife Carrie, if they were on a nice

647
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:06,680
Speaker 2: honeymoon trip to Beijing Bernie Sanders style or post honeymoon,

648
00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:09,520
Speaker 2: but she's pregnant, they go there and they have a

649
00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:13,759
Speaker 2: baby in Beijing, that child is not an American of

650
00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:17,080
Speaker 2: American citizens would be an American citizen, It certainly wouldn't

651
00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:20,480
Speaker 2: be a Chinese citizen because they don't allow by soil citizenship.

652
00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:22,600
Speaker 2: I think a lot of people are frustrated when they

653
00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:26,080
Speaker 2: look at this to say, wait, Chinese citizens are coming

654
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:30,640
Speaker 2: here in huge numbers, having babies on our soil and

655
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:33,120
Speaker 2: then going right back to China, and they've got an

656
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:38,040
Speaker 2: American citizen. That is madness. Can Congress do anything in

657
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:41,560
Speaker 2: your mind? If the Supreme Court says the President doesn't

658
00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:45,759
Speaker 2: have executive authority to address this birth tourism issue in

659
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:47,000
Speaker 2: a significant way.

660
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:51,720
Speaker 6: Well, two things. One, yeah, you're making this just debated

661
00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:54,360
Speaker 6: common sense argument. This is not stand up to common sense,

662
00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:56,719
Speaker 6: and I understand the Constitution what it says. That's why

663
00:35:56,760 --> 00:36:00,359
Speaker 6: I went right to the deck closet, so I get

664
00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:02,200
Speaker 6: all that. But yeah, what we can do is what

665
00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:04,960
Speaker 6: we've been working on doing, is like feel the border,

666
00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:07,839
Speaker 6: secure the border, which President Trump is done, and then

667
00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:11,640
Speaker 6: stop this sanctuary jurisdiction and all that that involves and

668
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:14,160
Speaker 6: all the other crazy things that the left is doing.

669
00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:16,040
Speaker 6: I mean, I think we talked last time. We just

670
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:18,120
Speaker 6: passed legislation out of our committee that says we're going

671
00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,880
Speaker 6: to get rid of the sanctuary jurisdiction concept, which applies

672
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,160
Speaker 6: to now almost a third of the country. So yet

673
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:25,799
Speaker 6: those are the things that we need to do. Now.

674
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:29,080
Speaker 6: If we pass a wall that says, you know that

675
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:31,200
Speaker 6: deals with first right citizenship, it's going to be right

676
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:33,160
Speaker 6: back in front of the Supreme Court, right back, and

677
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:34,640
Speaker 6: they're going to look, they're going to point to the

678
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:37,040
Speaker 6: Constitution in fite the same reasons they're going to sit

679
00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:39,440
Speaker 6: probably now. So I don't know that that change anything.

680
00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:41,080
Speaker 6: But what we got to do is just enforce the

681
00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:43,399
Speaker 6: law and deal with the situation, which is I gave

682
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:45,480
Speaker 6: the speech of Friday night on the House foor when

683
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:48,319
Speaker 6: we're debating the build of the citizen over and said

684
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:50,239
Speaker 6: they led an eight to ten million people. Then they

685
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:52,759
Speaker 6: create sanctuary jurisdictions, and now they don't want to fund

686
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:54,239
Speaker 6: the people who are going out to get them the

687
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:56,080
Speaker 6: ICE ages, and they're going to take the money away.

688
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:58,719
Speaker 6: Wasn't enough to spit on them, to dock them, track them,

689
00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:00,680
Speaker 6: harass them. Now they will say we're not going to

690
00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:03,400
Speaker 6: pay you to do the job that we're making it

691
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:05,040
Speaker 6: so tough for you to do because we let in

692
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:07,960
Speaker 6: ten million people and gave them sanctuary status. I mean,

693
00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,000
Speaker 6: that's craziness.

694
00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:14,480
Speaker 1: So Congressman, can you just tell us where this whole

695
00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:18,880
Speaker 1: thing stands with the ICE funding currently? We know the

696
00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:20,799
Speaker 1: TSA lines. We've been covering that a lot here on

697
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:25,240
Speaker 1: the show. Seems like that now is not an issue.

698
00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:28,440
Speaker 1: You had the Senate on what March twenty seventh voice

699
00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:32,600
Speaker 1: vote funding most of DHS, so that's TSA, FEMA Coastguard,

700
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:35,440
Speaker 1: but not the full ICE funding, and then you got

701
00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:39,040
Speaker 1: the House on March twenty seventh rejected the sentence version.

702
00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:41,560
Speaker 1: What the heck is going on?

703
00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:45,279
Speaker 6: Yeah, the left is being crazy. I mean they set

704
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,640
Speaker 6: down the government last ball for forty two days, and

705
00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:49,680
Speaker 6: now they're setting it down for forty some days here

706
00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:52,400
Speaker 6: this spring, and who knows how long it's going to go.

707
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:56,480
Speaker 6: It's just another ridiculous position they take. But that's the scenario.

708
00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:59,640
Speaker 6: Is the situation is that, yeah, they don't want to

709
00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 6: pay I say, just in border patrol. And frankly, you

710
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:05,799
Speaker 6: don't ever want to establish the president that you're going

711
00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:09,160
Speaker 6: to fund all of the government except the enforcement side

712
00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:13,319
Speaker 6: of DHS, which is what the President would have been

713
00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:16,600
Speaker 6: if we were allowed that to go through. So the

714
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:19,680
Speaker 6: House said no to it. All of US Republicans voted

715
00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:22,800
Speaker 6: against what the Senator said. We passed back a clean,

716
00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:27,440
Speaker 6: clean bill which said no, just fund everyone, fund ice agents,

717
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:29,880
Speaker 6: Fund the people who are going out there facing the

718
00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:33,040
Speaker 6: harassment from the agitators on the left, dealing with what

719
00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:35,520
Speaker 6: all they have to deal with doing their job. Make

720
00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,719
Speaker 6: sure they get funded fully, not this partial deal that

721
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:41,360
Speaker 6: Chuck Schumer and the Democrats wanted to do in the

722
00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:42,160
Speaker 6: United States Senate.

723
00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:45,839
Speaker 2: How frustrated do you think President Trump is? Right now?

724
00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:49,800
Speaker 2: You know him? Well, it seems like I was watching

725
00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:53,520
Speaker 2: his press conference yesterday, and I know he was at

726
00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:57,439
Speaker 2: the birthrights citizenship argument today on the Supreme Court. It's

727
00:38:57,560 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 2: and you and I were there for the College Sports Roundtable,

728
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:03,640
Speaker 2: and near the end you could see him near the

729
00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 2: end of the College Sports Roundtable when they started talking

730
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:09,600
Speaker 2: about everything the judges are doing and Democrats in Congress,

731
00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:12,160
Speaker 2: it was just you could just see the blood pressure

732
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,879
Speaker 2: boiling on him. He seems and I know everything going

733
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,719
Speaker 2: on in Iran, but certainly he seems very frustrated with

734
00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:21,960
Speaker 2: the slowness of movement with the American political process. Is

735
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 2: that fair to say, you think, Oh, I think it's very.

736
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:26,200
Speaker 6: Fair to say. He's a guy who gets things done.

737
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:29,600
Speaker 6: He's he's a guy who, uh, you know, is focused

738
00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:31,279
Speaker 6: on results and doing what he said he would do

739
00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:33,440
Speaker 6: to when he ran for the job. And so yeah,

740
00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:36,240
Speaker 6: it's frustrating. But I think his frustration is no different

741
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:39,520
Speaker 6: than the American people. They see it all. They see

742
00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:41,440
Speaker 6: it all too and they look at the left and

743
00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:43,120
Speaker 6: they're like, why do you take the positions you do?

744
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:45,080
Speaker 6: Why don't you just fund the government just like pay,

745
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:47,880
Speaker 6: I say, just to do the job. So of course

746
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 6: he's frustrated, but I think the American people are, and

747
00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:54,560
Speaker 6: I think it's you know, coming upon us Republicans to

748
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:57,680
Speaker 6: keep doing all we can to get just common sense

749
00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:00,160
Speaker 6: things done. But also to tell the public, to tell

750
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:05,280
Speaker 6: the people held up, and it is truly the left.

751
00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:09,400
Speaker 6: They're crazy positions and they're just pure hatred of President Trump,

752
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:10,759
Speaker 6: which is ridiculous as well.

753
00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:14,239
Speaker 2: How's this Iran war playing out?

754
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:16,840
Speaker 1: As you see at this stage, Congressman, I think Trump's

755
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:19,560
Speaker 1: addressing the nation tonight at nine o'clock. He's going to

756
00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:23,080
Speaker 1: be calling calling out NATO for not stepping off to

757
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:26,560
Speaker 1: help out with the strait of horror moves. You know,

758
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:28,719
Speaker 1: I feel like a lot of people are either declaring

759
00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:33,800
Speaker 1: this right now a huge win or a huge catastrophe.

760
00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:35,960
Speaker 1: And I'm like, well, it's still happening, So how can

761
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:40,360
Speaker 1: we know what exactly has happened? Because we don't. But

762
00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:43,560
Speaker 1: at this stage, what is your what's your sense of

763
00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:44,280
Speaker 1: how it's going?

764
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,320
Speaker 6: Well, I was listening to you guys a couple of

765
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:48,719
Speaker 6: days ago, and I think you guys had the right

766
00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:50,839
Speaker 6: take on it. I think the vast majority of Republicans

767
00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:54,120
Speaker 6: think that the president's doing what he said and that

768
00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:56,279
Speaker 6: this is the right thing to do. When you think

769
00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:58,400
Speaker 6: about the his you know, the forty seven years of

770
00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:02,560
Speaker 6: this this terrorist regime killing Americans, killing Israelis, killing others,

771
00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:05,600
Speaker 6: killing thousands of their own people forgiveness sake, and you

772
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:07,760
Speaker 6: cannot let them get a nuclear weapon, which President Trump

773
00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:09,759
Speaker 6: campaigned on the rand on and was, you know, part

774
00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:12,160
Speaker 6: of what he promised the American people. So I think

775
00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:14,759
Speaker 6: the vast majority of Republicans say like, okay, we're we're

776
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:17,879
Speaker 6: with the president. Not I certainly am. And I think

777
00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:19,920
Speaker 6: people with common sense say, yeah, this, you do not

778
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:24,040
Speaker 6: want this crazy regime having a nuclear capability. But we

779
00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:26,440
Speaker 6: also see that everyone sees the price of gas. I

780
00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:28,279
Speaker 6: was actually in California and there you pull up at

781
00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:30,800
Speaker 6: six ninety nine. Of course not driven by some of

782
00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:33,200
Speaker 6: the crazy things in California, but I'm like, I look

783
00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:35,680
Speaker 6: at that sign on the guests, I'm like, oh, we can.

784
00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:38,720
Speaker 6: So we wanted to be over as quickly as possible.

785
00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:41,879
Speaker 6: But I think most people, again with common sense, say

786
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:45,600
Speaker 6: you have to achieve the objective. And if the objective

787
00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:50,000
Speaker 6: is clearly do not let this crazy regime have nuclear

788
00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 6: capability nuclear weapons, And the country understands that. So we'll

789
00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:56,719
Speaker 6: see what the President says tonight. But as we've talked

790
00:41:56,719 --> 00:41:58,879
Speaker 6: about many times, he's a guy who does what he said.

791
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:00,840
Speaker 6: He's a guy that you know, we're going to accomplish

792
00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:03,080
Speaker 6: a goal. He's going to get there, and this is

793
00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:04,759
Speaker 6: certainly something he told us he was going to do.

794
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:08,279
Speaker 2: I agree with all that, you know, and I think

795
00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:10,239
Speaker 2: you would probably agree with this. If we've been saying

796
00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:14,399
Speaker 2: on the program, everybody you remember, everybody said, oh, Minneapolis

797
00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:17,399
Speaker 2: is going to be the moment that defines the midterms.

798
00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:21,080
Speaker 2: And now, unless you live in Minneapolis or Minnesota, nobody's

799
00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:26,080
Speaker 2: talking about that right now. Iran, Iran, Iran gas prices. It's,

800
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:29,200
Speaker 2: you know, the first day of April. If this war

801
00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:34,120
Speaker 2: or this this whatever you want to call it, people say,

802
00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:36,239
Speaker 2: you know, the president says, not officially a war because

803
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:40,400
Speaker 2: Congress hasn't acted. But let's say this action undertaken by

804
00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:43,080
Speaker 2: President Trump. If it's over by May one, which I

805
00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:45,680
Speaker 2: think it will be, then we're going to be right

806
00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:49,080
Speaker 2: back to the economy. I think driving the boat as

807
00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:52,640
Speaker 2: it pertains to people's reactions post Labor Day. Do you

808
00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:56,680
Speaker 2: buy into that and if so, how does that become

809
00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:59,640
Speaker 2: the focal point of the midterm election in your mind?

810
00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:03,960
Speaker 6: Well, the econmomy is always, you know, pretty darn central

811
00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:08,400
Speaker 6: to any national election, mid term or presidential, and I

812
00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:10,560
Speaker 6: assume that's going to be the case. Again, I think

813
00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:12,920
Speaker 6: you're right. In the in the era of modern American

814
00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:15,800
Speaker 6: politics and the era of President Trump, the news cycles

815
00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:18,359
Speaker 6: like every three minutes. So yeah, things, things are going

816
00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:20,160
Speaker 6: to change. We don't know what's going to happen between

817
00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:22,680
Speaker 6: now and in October, but it would be nice if

818
00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:25,400
Speaker 6: we got this eccomy back where we want it, and

819
00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:29,000
Speaker 6: prices of things began to come down, particularly gas prices,

820
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:30,799
Speaker 6: because it's something we all see and feel every day.

821
00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:33,279
Speaker 6: And I think that's likely to happen in light of

822
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:35,080
Speaker 6: the big beautiful bill we passed. And now I think

823
00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:37,279
Speaker 6: we're going to do a second reconciliation. I think we

824
00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:39,720
Speaker 6: have to in order to deal with this fraud issue.

825
00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:41,920
Speaker 6: You think we're gonna get Democrats in the Congress to

826
00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:44,920
Speaker 6: help us deal with the rampant fraud happening around the country. No,

827
00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:46,400
Speaker 6: we're going to have to do that on our own.

828
00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:49,279
Speaker 6: So let's do that. Let's make sure we replenish the

829
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:53,200
Speaker 6: troops with the supplies they need after this effort in Iran,

830
00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:56,360
Speaker 6: and let's make make sure we handle the things and

831
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:59,000
Speaker 6: maybe even DHS have to happen with reconciliation to make

832
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:02,640
Speaker 6: sure ICE gets paid well. But let's do that. And

833
00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:05,160
Speaker 6: I think that will help with economic growth as well.

834
00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:08,160
Speaker 6: But certainly the big beautiful Bell bill with the largest

835
00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:10,560
Speaker 6: tax cut in the American history, that's a good thing, and

836
00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:12,120
Speaker 6: that's starting to kick in. I think going to help

837
00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:12,720
Speaker 6: our economy.

838
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:18,080
Speaker 1: Congressman, I was at a book event last night, and yes,

839
00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:19,920
Speaker 1: I was asked, did you in fact hit a one

840
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,239
Speaker 1: hundred and three mile hour serve? And of course, and

841
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:25,600
Speaker 1: I said, well, yes, not everyone agreed that that was

842
00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:27,960
Speaker 1: going to happen, but that did happen. But also on

843
00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:31,439
Speaker 1: the reel, I was asked, I was asked a question

844
00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:34,520
Speaker 1: that I want to post you now, which is, how

845
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:37,719
Speaker 1: are we looking for the midterms? What's your real assessment

846
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:40,560
Speaker 1: of that right now? I mean, I know we're always

847
00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:43,480
Speaker 1: optimistic here. You're an optimistic guy. You're a winner. You're

848
00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:45,399
Speaker 1: not going to cry about things and say, oh my gosh,

849
00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:48,120
Speaker 1: all those loss I know that asking this question, but

850
00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:51,000
Speaker 1: just give us some context for what do you think

851
00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:55,239
Speaker 1: has to happen between now and election day so that

852
00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:57,239
Speaker 1: they can't so that we don't lose the House, and

853
00:44:57,239 --> 00:44:59,279
Speaker 1: then they just steinn me. Trump's agenda for the rest

854
00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:01,080
Speaker 1: of his time, wrest of his time in office.

855
00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:04,680
Speaker 6: Well, and you all know the facts historically, midterms of

856
00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:06,480
Speaker 6: top when you're the party in power in the White House.

857
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:09,080
Speaker 6: So we get that. The energy right now the left

858
00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:12,640
Speaker 6: is driven by their just this, you know, Trump's arrangement syndrome,

859
00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:14,840
Speaker 6: which is a as you all know, a real phenomena.

860
00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:17,680
Speaker 6: They're driven by that. You saw these there's no kings

861
00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:20,520
Speaker 6: balooney they did over the weekend. And so there's some

862
00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:24,520
Speaker 6: energy on the left at but we're raising money, we're

863
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:29,120
Speaker 6: recruiting good candidates. And again in the in modern American politics,

864
00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:31,919
Speaker 6: in the era of Trump, he has changed things. Look

865
00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 6: at our state. Our state, Ohio used to be the

866
00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:37,720
Speaker 6: Bellweather state, and any presidential election it was a fifty

867
00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:40,000
Speaker 6: to fifty state. President Trump won Ohio by eight and

868
00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:41,799
Speaker 6: a half, eight and a half eleven and a half

869
00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:45,239
Speaker 6: in the last three elections. Things have changed. So I

870
00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:48,959
Speaker 6: don't think he's conventional wisdom. I was in California helping

871
00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:51,719
Speaker 6: one of our colleagues and raising money for our candidates.

872
00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:53,839
Speaker 6: We're busting our tail doing all the work we've got

873
00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:56,480
Speaker 6: to do. And like you say, I'm an optimistic guy.

874
00:45:56,560 --> 00:45:58,880
Speaker 6: Because we're an American you got to be optimistic if

875
00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:00,759
Speaker 6: we live in the greatest country ever, so I think

876
00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:03,239
Speaker 6: we can still do it. But let's be honest, it's

877
00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:05,640
Speaker 6: going to be hard. It is going to be hard. Uh,

878
00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:07,759
Speaker 6: But I learned a long time ago anything worth doing

879
00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:09,600
Speaker 6: is always hard. That's just the way the Good Lord

880
00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:11,520
Speaker 6: made it. And we're gonna We're gonna stay after it

881
00:46:11,520 --> 00:46:12,279
Speaker 6: and I think we can win.

882
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:15,919
Speaker 2: Are you optimistic that Congress is going to be able

883
00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:17,879
Speaker 2: to do anything? We're in the middle of the final four.

884
00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:18,279
Speaker 6: Uh.

885
00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:20,480
Speaker 2: In c DOAA tournament has been a lot of fun,

886
00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:23,960
Speaker 2: setting record ratings. Are you optimistic that call that Congress

887
00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:26,000
Speaker 2: is going to be able to do anything to help

888
00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:28,200
Speaker 2: get the mess in college athletics fixed?

889
00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:32,080
Speaker 6: I am and I want to you know, uh uh, Clay,

890
00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:35,120
Speaker 6: we've talked about getting the score Act passed. Uh. We

891
00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:36,719
Speaker 6: we got to get that done because we've got to

892
00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:40,399
Speaker 6: get some ball and get some action on something so

893
00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:43,200
Speaker 6: that we have to do it. I wanted to do

894
00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:45,000
Speaker 6: it last fall like you did in the middle of

895
00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:48,440
Speaker 6: the football season. But it's if we don't do something,

896
00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:51,279
Speaker 6: I think it's going to continue to deteriorate and you're

897
00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:53,279
Speaker 6: going to get more transfers and people wanted to play

898
00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:55,359
Speaker 6: ten years in college and on and on it goes

899
00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:59,040
Speaker 6: and and it hurts everybody. And like like we started here,

900
00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:01,840
Speaker 6: you just like I did. You saw the frustration with

901
00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:03,840
Speaker 6: the president. I think that I think that frustrations with

902
00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:07,319
Speaker 6: college sports fans all over. So we're we're looking to

903
00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:09,120
Speaker 6: do a hearing. We're gonna, we're gonna we're gonna bring

904
00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:11,799
Speaker 6: you in and let you talk to the American people

905
00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:15,200
Speaker 6: into Congress at some point here this spring talking about

906
00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:17,560
Speaker 6: all these issues, because there's things in professional sports that

907
00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:20,040
Speaker 6: I think are a concern as well. You want you're

908
00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:22,160
Speaker 6: a fan, you want to watch always joke. You want

909
00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:24,640
Speaker 6: to watch the Browns lose every week and a football

910
00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:26,920
Speaker 6: season in Ohio, for goodness sake, it costs you like

911
00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:29,279
Speaker 6: a thousand bucks, twelve hundred bucks and you still can't

912
00:47:29,320 --> 00:47:31,600
Speaker 6: find him. Is it on the is it on you know,

913
00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:33,680
Speaker 6: is it streaming? Is it on network or is it

914
00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:35,880
Speaker 6: on cable? Or do I got to do? So we

915
00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:37,400
Speaker 6: want to look at that issue too, so that the

916
00:47:37,480 --> 00:47:41,160
Speaker 6: numbers that I think makes sense for and I've unfortunate,

917
00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:43,280
Speaker 6: I think, require Congress to do to do something.

918
00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:45,880
Speaker 2: Well, Look, we know how hard you're working, we know

919
00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:48,120
Speaker 2: how much energy you have trying to get things solved

920
00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:50,279
Speaker 2: up there. So thanks for everything. You're always going to

921
00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:51,799
Speaker 2: be a big friend of the show, and I'm looking

922
00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:55,239
Speaker 2: forward to seeing you at that testimony here coming up

923
00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:57,080
Speaker 2: to try to get some stuff resolved there.

924
00:47:57,760 --> 00:47:59,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, thanks for all you guys are doing.

925
00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:03,319
Speaker 2: Take care as Congressman Jim Jordan with us talking about

926
00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:05,879
Speaker 2: all of the battles going on on Capitol Hill right now,

927
00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:07,960
Speaker 2: Buck take us to the break and we'll get to

928
00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:09,960
Speaker 2: some of your calls and some of your talkbacks. There're

929
00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:10,560
Speaker 2: some good ones.

930
00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:13,200
Speaker 1: You guys are both very optimistic. I gotta say it's

931
00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:16,680
Speaker 1: a good thing. You know your optimism is uh yeah,

932
00:48:17,120 --> 00:48:17,440
Speaker 1: you too.

933
00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:18,479
Speaker 2: I gotta say. You're the coach.

934
00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:20,799
Speaker 1: You're the coaches for the team that never feels like

935
00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:21,800
Speaker 1: they're a bunch of losers.

936
00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:22,560
Speaker 2: So that's a good thing.

937
00:48:24,040 --> 00:48:26,000
Speaker 1: I've been on the go a lot events this week,

938
00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:28,920
Speaker 1: doing all kinds of stuff and trying to try to

939
00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:31,520
Speaker 1: do some working out, you know, trying not to get

940
00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:32,880
Speaker 1: too sweaty, Clay.

941
00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:36,440
Speaker 2: So I'm out there doing what I can. And you know, sorry,

942
00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:39,360
Speaker 2: I did see the photo and I thought Carrie looks lovely.

943
00:48:39,480 --> 00:48:41,839
Speaker 2: She looks like she just came from a nice, uh,

944
00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:44,239
Speaker 2: you know, great environment, and I thought, Bunk looks a

945
00:48:44,239 --> 00:48:46,640
Speaker 2: little sweaty there. He looks. He just looks a little

946
00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:48,880
Speaker 2: little It must have been a hot room. I I

947
00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:50,719
Speaker 2: schmitz a little bit.

948
00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:53,960
Speaker 1: Okay, I get sweaty, but neither here nor there, because

949
00:48:54,120 --> 00:48:54,759
Speaker 1: I'm out there.

950
00:48:54,800 --> 00:48:55,520
Speaker 2: I'm in the game.

951
00:48:55,600 --> 00:48:58,040
Speaker 1: I'm in the fight, and I need energy to do it.

952
00:48:58,080 --> 00:49:00,399
Speaker 1: And this is where Schuck comes in. I'm taking chalk

953

955
00:49:06,520 --> 00:49:08,759
Speaker 1: my chalk box right next to me. Because I'm taking

956
00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:12,600
Speaker 1: supplements every day. Diet, exercise, all that stuff, good sleep,

957
00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:15,640

958
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:19,480

Speaker 1: Oh, welcome back into Clay and Bucks. That we are

975
00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:14,920
Speaker 1: talking here about the situation in Iran and all of

976
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:20,560
Speaker 1: the latest that we can expect from the president to nights. Now,

977
00:50:20,239 --> 00:50:24,719
Speaker 1: a few things for this. First of all, Clay presidents

978
00:50:24,760 --> 00:50:27,560
Speaker 1: saying that things are looking things are.

979
00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:29,680
Speaker 2: Looking great from his perspective.

980
00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:35,160
Speaker 1: Overall, overall, this is a fantastically successful military mission. That's

981
00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:37,280
Speaker 1: the that's the word from the White House.

982
00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:40,480
Speaker 2: More or less. In fact, here we could have Trump

983
00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:43,160
Speaker 2: weigh in on this one. Here.

984
00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:46,080
Speaker 1: Let's listen to him. This is from yesterday. This has

985
00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:50,000
Speaker 1: cut eleven on his Iran timeline. This is what he's saying,

986
00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:53,879
Speaker 1: because there's no.

987
00:50:53,840 --> 00:50:54,960
Speaker 2: Reason for us to do this.

988
00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:57,360
Speaker 7: Look probably the straight A guy can take a mind

989
00:50:57,480 --> 00:50:58,719
Speaker 7: dropping in the water and.

990
00:50:58,640 --> 00:51:01,799
Speaker 8: Say, oh it's unsaved. It's like you're taking out an army.

991
00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:03,800
Speaker 8: Are you taking out a country? Or you take and

992
00:51:03,880 --> 00:51:05,560
Speaker 8: drop it, or you can take a machine gun from

993
00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:07,560
Speaker 8: the shore, shoot a little few bobas at a ship,

994
00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:11,759
Speaker 8: or maybe an over the shoulder missile, small missiles. That's

995
00:51:11,760 --> 00:51:14,480
Speaker 8: not for us, that'll be for France. That'll be for

996
00:51:14,520 --> 00:51:17,040
Speaker 8: whoever's using the strain. But I think when we leave,

997
00:51:17,160 --> 00:51:18,560
Speaker 8: probably that's all cleared up.

998
00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:18,920
Speaker 2: Today.

999
00:51:18,920 --> 00:51:21,680
Speaker 7: I had tremendous numbers of ships were sailing through when

1000
00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:25,440
Speaker 7: negotiating with them. Right now, again we have had regime change. Now,

1001
00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:27,600
Speaker 7: regime change was not one of the things I had

1002
00:51:27,640 --> 00:51:29,920
Speaker 7: as a goal. I had one goal. They will have

1003
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:32,839
Speaker 7: no nuclear weapon. And that goal has been attained. They

1004
00:51:32,880 --> 00:51:35,279
Speaker 7: will not have nuclear weapons.

1005
00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:39,080
Speaker 1: Clay, he's saying the goal has been achieved. Now we

1006
00:51:39,120 --> 00:51:41,680
Speaker 1: have to get the straight open. But he's also been

1007
00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:48,120
Speaker 1: frustrated with European allies here. Emmanuel mccron of France has

1008
00:51:48,120 --> 00:51:52,280
Speaker 1: said the strikes are outside of international law. Britain's care

1009
00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:58,279
Speaker 1: starmer who makes Brian Stalter look like Conan the Barbarian

1010
00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:02,920
Speaker 1: he is declared it not our war. So Starmer is

1011
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:05,280
Speaker 1: a just in general, a very wimpy guy, and letting

1012
00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:09,480
Speaker 1: Britain fall as a civilization. And Italy and Spain have

1013
00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:13,040
Speaker 1: denied US warplanes from being able to land at their

1014
00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:15,680
Speaker 1: bases or flying through their airspace as part of the

1015
00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:20,399
Speaker 1: Iran campaign. Clay, So some of our European friends are

1016
00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:22,600
Speaker 1: irking Trump, and I think we're gonna hear quite a

1017
00:52:22,640 --> 00:52:25,719
Speaker 1: bit about that tonight at nine o'clock Eastern. Well, this

1018
00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:26,840
Speaker 1: is the big story.

1019
00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:31,800
Speaker 2: Now. Oil and gas is a global marketplace, which is important.

1020
00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:35,400
Speaker 2: But I think what President Trump just said is also important,

1021
00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:38,799
Speaker 2: which is the Strait of hor moves. We can have

1022
00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:42,640
Speaker 2: pretty much free ingress, egress, whatever you want to say

1023
00:52:42,680 --> 00:52:45,120
Speaker 2: through the Strait, and all it takes is one bomb

1024
00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:48,600
Speaker 2: to potentially scare the owners of oil tankers, which you

1025
00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:51,800
Speaker 2: could understand if you had a ship and you knew

1026
00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:54,319
Speaker 2: that there was a I don't know, I don't know

1027
00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:57,880
Speaker 2: what the risk tolerance. That's a good question. If we

1028
00:52:57,960 --> 00:53:01,000
Speaker 2: had a shipping magnet who deliver US oil through the

1029
00:53:01,040 --> 00:53:05,000
Speaker 2: Persian Gulf, I would bet one in one hundred if

1030
00:53:05,040 --> 00:53:06,839
Speaker 2: you knew there was a one in one hundred chance

1031
00:53:06,880 --> 00:53:09,120
Speaker 2: that your oil tanker would get blown up. I don't

1032
00:53:09,160 --> 00:53:11,399
Speaker 2: think you'd probably go Maybe you'd take the chances at

1033
00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:12,879
Speaker 2: one in a thousand. I mean, this would be good

1034
00:53:12,880 --> 00:53:15,480
Speaker 2: because it basically just comes down to risk tolerance. Right,

1035
00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:19,719
Speaker 2: How frequently can iron have a significant enough impact on

1036
00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:23,000
Speaker 2: a oiler gas tanker which you can all imagine when

1037
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:25,880
Speaker 2: it hits an oiler gas tanker, it goes up in

1038
00:53:25,920 --> 00:53:29,000
Speaker 2: a hurry. Right, We're not talking about being able to

1039
00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:32,439
Speaker 2: easily put out a fire or deal with this when

1040
00:53:32,440 --> 00:53:35,960
Speaker 2: a drone or a missile or some sort of easy

1041
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:42,120
Speaker 2: to carry devices created an incendiary nature. So the big

1042
00:53:42,160 --> 00:53:44,880
Speaker 2: issue that I see here is what President Trump is

1043
00:53:44,920 --> 00:53:48,840
Speaker 2: pointing out buck is it's actually not that impactful to

1044
00:53:48,960 --> 00:53:51,680
Speaker 2: the United States whether the strait of horror moves is

1045
00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:55,040
Speaker 2: wide open, because thankfully we have created enough oil and

1046
00:53:55,120 --> 00:54:00,360
Speaker 2: gas independence that things are pretty good in terms of

1047
00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:03,560
Speaker 2: the United States oil and gas access. In fact, I

1048
00:54:03,600 --> 00:54:06,520
Speaker 2: was with a friend over the weekend who was in

1049
00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:10,440
Speaker 2: the oil and gas industry, and she said, Hey, you know,

1050
00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:13,279
Speaker 2: the oil and gas people aren't really that upset that

1051
00:54:13,320 --> 00:54:15,279
Speaker 2: the price of oil and gas has gone up because

1052
00:54:15,320 --> 00:54:19,280
Speaker 2: President Trump's desired price around fifty dollars a barrel. It's hard,

1053
00:54:19,400 --> 00:54:21,439
Speaker 2: a lot of you guys listening in Texas, it's hard

1054
00:54:21,480 --> 00:54:23,560
Speaker 2: for the oil and gas companies to make very much

1055
00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:28,279
Speaker 2: money at profitably at fifty dollars a barrel oil and gas.

1056
00:54:28,320 --> 00:54:30,920
Speaker 2: They need it to be sixty seventy eighty dollars in

1057
00:54:31,040 --> 00:54:34,080
Speaker 2: order to encourage more oil and gas drilling. And so

1058
00:54:34,160 --> 00:54:36,160
Speaker 2: there's not a lot of people in Texas right now

1059
00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:39,239
Speaker 2: that are actually that upset. And given that a lot

1060
00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:42,040
Speaker 2: of the money stays in the United States, we have

1061
00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:46,960
Speaker 2: basically energy and dependence here, but Europe doesn't. And so

1062
00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:49,480
Speaker 2: the people that are actually impacted by the straight of

1063
00:54:49,520 --> 00:54:53,239
Speaker 2: Wor moves are European. They are Chinese, and they have

1064
00:54:53,360 --> 00:54:56,360
Speaker 2: done nothing to try to put pressure on Iran to

1065
00:54:56,520 --> 00:54:59,160
Speaker 2: open up the straight of Wor moves. Now there are

1066
00:54:59,360 --> 00:55:02,920
Speaker 2: is talk. We began this show. Here is Rubio, by

1067
00:55:02,960 --> 00:55:06,880
Speaker 2: the way, saying cut seventeen. We actually depend very little.

1068
00:55:06,920 --> 00:55:09,200
Speaker 2: This is last night, I believe, on Sean Hannity's show,

1069
00:55:09,719 --> 00:55:12,520
Speaker 2: Rubio saying what I'm telling you guys, which is this

1070
00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:16,560
Speaker 2: is not that significant to the American consumer. We're not

1071
00:55:16,680 --> 00:55:18,440
Speaker 2: using that oil and gas cut seventeen.

1072
00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:21,160
Speaker 9: The Straits of Hormones. Those are international waters, right, So

1073
00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:24,280
Speaker 9: anything a ron does to impede commercial traffic is illegal.

1074
00:55:24,440 --> 00:55:27,040
Speaker 9: For all these countries that love to talk about international law,

1075
00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:30,440
Speaker 9: it is a violation of international maritime law to impede

1076
00:55:30,480 --> 00:55:33,120
Speaker 9: the free flow of travel in international waters. Okay, So

1077
00:55:33,160 --> 00:55:35,759
Speaker 9: that's number one. Number two, it's illegal to bomb and

1078
00:55:35,840 --> 00:55:39,359
Speaker 9: hit and attack commercial shipping and sync them. I mean,

1079
00:55:39,360 --> 00:55:41,279
Speaker 9: that's what the Nazis did during World War Two in

1080
00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:43,720
Speaker 9: the Atlantic, and that's what they're doing now to ships

1081
00:55:43,719 --> 00:55:46,319
Speaker 9: that from countries they don't like that or flagged by

1082
00:55:46,360 --> 00:55:49,480
Speaker 9: countries they don't like. These are terroristic acts that they're undertaking.

1083
00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:52,200
Speaker 9: And so the United States gets very little energy through

1084
00:55:52,239 --> 00:55:54,319
Speaker 9: the Straits of Horror moves. Our allies ship out a

1085
00:55:54,320 --> 00:55:57,000
Speaker 9: lot of oil through there, meaning our goal allies and

1086
00:55:57,040 --> 00:56:00,200
Speaker 9: certainly countries in Asia and Europe depend on it ken

1087
00:56:00,320 --> 00:56:02,800
Speaker 9: very little on the straight Okay.

1088
00:56:03,160 --> 00:56:06,360
Speaker 2: So Buck, it seems clear to me that President Trump

1089
00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:09,120
Speaker 2: is going to lean on Europe, on China, on Japan

1090
00:56:09,640 --> 00:56:12,640
Speaker 2: other countries that depend on the Straight of Horror moves more.

1091
00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:15,440
Speaker 2: There are reports, and I'll it's hard to even keep

1092
00:56:15,520 --> 00:56:18,040
Speaker 2: up because we say something and then somebody from Iran

1093
00:56:18,120 --> 00:56:22,000
Speaker 2: immediately says it's not true, and then there's another story

1094
00:56:22,000 --> 00:56:24,640
Speaker 2: that spirals out of that. But it seems to be

1095
00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:26,960
Speaker 2: the case that there is the potential and we'll see

1096
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:30,200
Speaker 2: what President Trump says tonight of a ceasefire from the

1097
00:56:30,320 --> 00:56:34,400
Speaker 2: United States and Israel, if Iran would commit to allowing

1098
00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:36,520
Speaker 2: the straight of horor moves to be back wide open,

1099
00:56:36,560 --> 00:56:39,640
Speaker 2: with the idea being that President Trump by and large

1100
00:56:39,680 --> 00:56:42,800
Speaker 2: has already knocked out a lot of the top targets.

1101
00:56:42,840 --> 00:56:45,359
Speaker 2: Does that seem like a fair assessment of where we are.

1102
00:56:45,719 --> 00:56:49,279
Speaker 2: What Iran would give up is free shipping through the

1103
00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:51,720
Speaker 2: Straight of Horror moves, or price of oil and gas

1104
00:56:51,719 --> 00:56:54,399
Speaker 2: would collapse again in a hurry. And what we would

1105
00:56:54,440 --> 00:56:56,720
Speaker 2: do is say, Okay, we've hit you enough. We feel

1106
00:56:56,719 --> 00:56:58,759
Speaker 2: like the new leadership we can work with. I think

1107
00:56:58,760 --> 00:57:01,440
Speaker 2: that's kind of where we are, probably something like that.

1108
00:57:01,960 --> 00:57:05,359
Speaker 1: Uh And and I think Trump he's saying this, it's

1109
00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:08,160
Speaker 1: two weeks or so, we'll be finished up here. He's

1110
00:57:08,160 --> 00:57:11,200
Speaker 1: clearly trying to keep the pressure on so that there

1111
00:57:11,239 --> 00:57:15,239
Speaker 1: can be some deal while the Iranians still feel like

1112
00:57:15,280 --> 00:57:16,080
Speaker 1: they can get hit.

1113
00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:21,600
Speaker 2: You know, that's that's the leverage, right, that's the you know, the.

1114
00:57:20,840 --> 00:57:23,560
Speaker 1: The knee on the on the chest here of the

1115
00:57:23,600 --> 00:57:26,760
Speaker 1: Iranian regime. It's hey, you better, you better come up

1116
00:57:26,800 --> 00:57:29,160
Speaker 1: with something here or else we can still hit you.

1117
00:57:29,680 --> 00:57:34,320
Speaker 1: So that makes sense to me. The achievement of the

1118
00:57:34,440 --> 00:57:38,640
Speaker 1: end of the Iranian nuclear program, we'll see. I think

1119
00:57:38,720 --> 00:57:42,880
Speaker 1: he set it back quite a bit. That's that's true.

1120
00:57:43,040 --> 00:57:45,840
Speaker 1: I don't know if he's eliminated that chance forever. I

1121
00:57:45,880 --> 00:57:49,560
Speaker 1: would I would doubt that, especially considering a year ago

1122
00:57:49,600 --> 00:57:51,800
Speaker 1: we had all the air strikes on the nuke facilities,

1123
00:57:51,840 --> 00:57:54,520
Speaker 1: and then we needed more strikes on more nuke facilities.

1124
00:57:54,560 --> 00:57:57,200
Speaker 2: So we'll see. You know.

1125
00:57:57,360 --> 00:58:00,960
Speaker 1: I feel like the h isn't it. In Arlie Wilson's War,

1126
00:58:02,040 --> 00:58:06,000
Speaker 1: Tom Hanks is talking to a guy who actually died,

1127
00:58:06,040 --> 00:58:08,120
Speaker 1: I think from a drug overdose few years ago. A

1128
00:58:08,200 --> 00:58:10,120
Speaker 1: very good actor, you know I'm talking about. He plays

1129
00:58:10,560 --> 00:58:15,120
Speaker 1: more Hoffman, gust Of Raccados in the in the in

1130
00:58:15,160 --> 00:58:17,560
Speaker 1: the movie. Yeah, Phillip, thank you, Philip seymore Hoffman.

1131
00:58:17,560 --> 00:58:18,320
Speaker 2: That's exactly right.

1132
00:58:18,480 --> 00:58:21,200
Speaker 1: But they're talking and he does the you know, the

1133
00:58:21,520 --> 00:58:23,720
Speaker 1: man gets a horse and he says, isn't this a blessing?

1134
00:58:23,760 --> 00:58:25,720
Speaker 1: And he goes we'll see. Then he falls off the

1135
00:58:25,720 --> 00:58:27,200
Speaker 1: horse and he breaks his leg and he goes, isn't

1136
00:58:27,240 --> 00:58:27,680
Speaker 1: this terrible?

1137
00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:28,880
Speaker 2: And we'll see, And.

1138
00:58:28,840 --> 00:58:31,280
Speaker 1: Then he's recruited for war, but he can't go because

1139
00:58:31,280 --> 00:58:34,160
Speaker 1: he's broken leg, and you know, we'll see. I feel

1140
00:58:34,160 --> 00:58:36,800
Speaker 1: a little bit of that with this Iron situation right now. Yes,

1141
00:58:36,840 --> 00:58:39,560
Speaker 1: the military side of it, we have shown the world

1142
00:58:39,560 --> 00:58:42,200
Speaker 1: that our military is so much more capable and has

1143
00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:45,960
Speaker 1: so much more ferocity than anything that like in Iranian regime.

1144
00:58:46,240 --> 00:58:48,600
Speaker 1: So that's changed perception considerably. By the way, I think

1145
00:58:48,680 --> 00:58:51,600
Speaker 1: China looks at all this, with the whole Taiwan situation,

1146
00:58:51,800 --> 00:58:53,360
Speaker 1: and they're like, oh, these.

1147
00:58:53,240 --> 00:58:56,200
Speaker 2: Americans are really good at this war thing. No, I's saying,

1148
00:58:56,440 --> 00:58:59,040
Speaker 2: and we are. We are very good at this war thing.

1149
00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:02,880
Speaker 1: So if that is clear the long term strategic implications

1150
00:59:02,880 --> 00:59:05,400
Speaker 1: what this means, if anything, for the oil markets, I

1151
00:59:05,440 --> 00:59:06,600
Speaker 1: think that's still playing out.

1152
00:59:07,440 --> 00:59:10,160
Speaker 2: I think that's one hundred percent right. Stock market, by

1153
00:59:10,160 --> 00:59:12,240
Speaker 2: the way, has come back in a big way yesterday,

1154
00:59:12,280 --> 00:59:15,600
Speaker 2: up over one thousand points, another day of surging stock

1155
00:59:15,640 --> 00:59:20,200
Speaker 2: market prices. So the impact in general, I think of

1156
00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:23,320
Speaker 2: the selloff has not been very substantial. And again, what

1157
00:59:23,320 --> 00:59:25,800
Speaker 2: I've said from the get go is oil and gas

1158
00:59:25,800 --> 00:59:29,040
Speaker 2: prices matter in a big way, and if you look

1159
00:59:29,160 --> 00:59:32,600
Speaker 2: at what oil and gas prices are in September and October,

1160
00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:35,400
Speaker 2: I think that will give you a great illustration of

1161
00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:38,000
Speaker 2: exactly what we should expect. I will say, Buck, I

1162
00:59:38,040 --> 00:59:40,800
Speaker 2: was telling you this off air poly market, which is

1163
00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:44,760
Speaker 2: the prediction market. They have an eighty six percent chance

1164
00:59:45,320 --> 00:59:47,600
Speaker 2: that Democrats are going to take back control of the

1165
00:59:47,640 --> 00:59:50,200
Speaker 2: House right now. That means if you are out there

1166
00:59:50,240 --> 00:59:53,240
Speaker 2: listening to us right now and you disagree, you can

1167
00:59:53,280 --> 00:59:57,920
Speaker 2: make an eight to one roughly return by saying Republicans

1168
00:59:57,960 --> 01:00:01,720
Speaker 2: are going to hold onto the House. The markets are

1169
01:00:01,760 --> 01:00:04,960
Speaker 2: telling you that that is unlikely to happen more ominously

1170
01:00:05,080 --> 01:00:08,600
Speaker 2: than that. Right now, it's a little bit over fifty

1171
01:00:08,600 --> 01:00:11,120
Speaker 2: to fifty that Democrats are going to take back control

1172
01:00:11,200 --> 01:00:14,520
Speaker 2: of the Senate. And I think as we get this

1173
01:00:14,680 --> 01:00:18,000
Speaker 2: situation resolved, the price of oil and gas is going

1174
01:00:18,040 --> 01:00:21,200
Speaker 2: to go a very very long way towards how people

1175
01:00:21,240 --> 01:00:29,240
Speaker 2: feel about the affordability issues in the fall. And right now, Republicans,

1176
01:00:29,240 --> 01:00:31,920
Speaker 2: this is being honest with you, are big underdogs to

1177
01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:35,560
Speaker 2: retain control of the House and are now favored to

1178
01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:39,680
Speaker 2: lose the Senate too. Now, could these prediction markets be wrong. Yes,

1179
01:00:39,800 --> 01:00:43,680
Speaker 2: can they change, yes, But where the markets are right now,

1180
01:00:43,760 --> 01:00:46,840
Speaker 2: I think is always important to analyze when you try

1181
01:00:46,840 --> 01:00:49,520
Speaker 2: to assess what's going to happen going forward. And if

1182
01:00:49,520 --> 01:00:53,360
Speaker 2: you're frustrated with Congress, now, imagine what's going to happen

1183
01:00:53,520 --> 01:00:56,440
Speaker 2: if Democrats take back control of the Congress. I mean,

1184
01:00:56,480 --> 01:00:58,680
Speaker 2: they're going to impeach Trump, but nothing is going to

1185
01:00:58,680 --> 01:01:00,520
Speaker 2: get through. You're going to not be able to get

1186
01:01:00,600 --> 01:01:03,240
Speaker 2: judges through by and large. They're just going to shut

1187
01:01:03,280 --> 01:01:07,160
Speaker 2: down all of that pipeline. And effectively, the Trump presidency

1188
01:01:07,240 --> 01:01:08,920
Speaker 2: is going to be over. Now. He can still issue

1189
01:01:08,960 --> 01:01:11,760
Speaker 2: executive orders and he can still make a lot of decisions,

1190
01:01:11,800 --> 01:01:14,920
Speaker 2: but in terms of actually marshaling through any kind of

1191
01:01:14,960 --> 01:01:18,120
Speaker 2: substantive change in American law, it's going to be over.

1192
01:01:18,720 --> 01:01:21,160
Speaker 2: So that's to me why we got to get a

1193
01:01:21,160 --> 01:01:24,040
Speaker 2: lot of action done right now. It's also why Justice

1194
01:01:24,080 --> 01:01:27,080
Speaker 2: Alito is great. Justice Thomas is great. On the questions

1195
01:01:27,120 --> 01:01:30,320
Speaker 2: I thought they asked today, if they really want to

1196
01:01:30,440 --> 01:01:32,920
Speaker 2: ensure that someone like them is going to stay on

1197
01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:37,400
Speaker 2: the Supreme Court similar judicial philosophy. If I were seventy five,

1198
01:01:37,440 --> 01:01:41,440
Speaker 2: I'd be thinking about, Hey, is it potentially time to

1199
01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:44,640
Speaker 2: get a replacement that can take us to the next generation,

1200
01:01:45,440 --> 01:01:47,640
Speaker 2: because I'm concerned we're going to Ruth Bader Ginsburg. This

1201
01:01:48,520 --> 01:01:51,120
Speaker 2: look fire, carbon monoxide. You got them in your home,

1202
01:01:51,560 --> 01:01:54,040
Speaker 2: You got the detectors. Do you have a plan in

1203
01:01:54,120 --> 01:01:56,960
Speaker 2: case of a home invasion? Now's a good time to

1204
01:01:57,000 --> 01:01:59,800
Speaker 2: get one together, especially maybe if you're a little bit nervous.

1205
01:01:59,800 --> 01:02:02,760
Speaker 2: Maybe you got kids that are coming in at late hours.

1206
01:02:02,800 --> 01:02:04,720
Speaker 2: Maybe you got a neighborhood where you got friends and

1207
01:02:04,760 --> 01:02:07,960
Speaker 2: family that stop by. We were walking around in the

1208
01:02:07,960 --> 01:02:10,040
Speaker 2: house last night. I went to go make sure the

1209
01:02:10,080 --> 01:02:13,000
Speaker 2: doors were locked. It's about eleven thirty at night, and

1210
01:02:13,120 --> 01:02:16,040
Speaker 2: I opened the door and my wife, you know, to

1211
01:02:16,120 --> 01:02:17,480
Speaker 2: make sure it was up, found that it was open,

1212
01:02:17,480 --> 01:02:18,840
Speaker 2: and I was locking it. My wife was like, oh

1213
01:02:18,920 --> 01:02:22,000
Speaker 2: my goodness, who is that? Well, she was super worried.

1214
01:02:22,840 --> 01:02:24,680
Speaker 2: How many times does that happen in your house? Maybe

1215
01:02:24,720 --> 01:02:27,040
Speaker 2: you want something non lethal to make sure that you're

1216
01:02:27,040 --> 01:02:29,400
Speaker 2: as protected as you can be. Maybe you got kids

1217
01:02:29,760 --> 01:02:32,000
Speaker 2: that are out on the road, maybe they're off on college.

1218
01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:34,360
Speaker 2: Maybe they got a job that sometimes requires them to

1219
01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:38,160
Speaker 2: be out late at night. Boys, girls, grandsons, granddaughters. Saber

1220
01:02:38,200 --> 01:02:40,640
Speaker 2: can give you non lethal products to allow you to

1221
01:02:40,680 --> 01:02:43,439
Speaker 2: protect you and your family. And they have so many

1222
01:02:43,480 --> 01:02:46,800
Speaker 2: different types of products, including the Saber Home Defense Launcher

1223
01:02:47,200 --> 01:02:51,400
Speaker 2: seven Powerful Impact or pepper projectiles two more than competitors.

1224
01:02:51,640 --> 01:02:54,280
Speaker 2: We own them in the house. Also, pepper spray makes

1225
01:02:54,280 --> 01:02:58,000
Speaker 2: so much different. Get hooked up now. When safety matters,

1226
01:02:58,040 --> 01:03:02,280
