1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck

2
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:08,840
Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome in Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show.

3
00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:11,600
Speaker 1: You know, Bucks, some days there ain't a lot of topics,

4
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:15,079
Speaker 1: not a lot of news going on. Today we have

5
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:20,040
Speaker 1: gotten so much to dive into. Whoopie Goldberg suspended over

6
00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:25,279
Speaker 1: her inaccuracies. Let's say, as it pertains to the Nazi

7
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 1: era in Germany. The White House is demanding that Joe

8
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:34,160
Speaker 1: Rogan be regulated. Jeff Zucker at CNN is out over

9
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:39,159
Speaker 1: an undisclosed relationship. This is a big deal. Three hundred

10
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:43,560
Speaker 1: thousand jobs were lost in January of twenty twenty two.

11
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:47,720
Speaker 1: That compares to an expectation that two hundred thousand jobs

12
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:52,559
Speaker 1: would be added. The bidas touch continues to fall apart.

13
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 1: Army soldiers who refuse a COVID vaccine that we know

14
00:00:56,200 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 1: does not work against omicron will be immediately discharged. But Buck,

15
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 1: the story that is ricocheting everywhere, and he's doing his

16
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 1: media roundtables right now, CBS, NBC, ESPN, basically every direction

17
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 1: you look. Former Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores has

18
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:26,679
Speaker 1: sued the NFL, alleging racial discrimination in coaching and I

19
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 1: know you are not a monster NFL fan, far from it, Buck,

20
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:35,680
Speaker 1: but you also I mean, this story has ricocheted through

21
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:40,040
Speaker 1: so much of the media establishment that it's almost impossible

22
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: to ignore. I went on Fox and Friends this morning

23
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 1: and talked about it from a legal perspective. But I

24
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 1: want to start with this, Buck, even you are like, wow,

25
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 1: this is kind of a big story. Yeah, of course, Well,

26
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 1: because it comes Clay at a time where there's already

27
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 1: this huge national conversation because of Biden explicitly declared and

28
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: as you have rightly pointed out, that over ninety five

29
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 1: percent of lawyers or people from the legal profession will

30
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 1: not even be thought of as a possible Supreme Court pick.

31
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 1: And we also have the case making its way through

32
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court, and I believe we are going to

33
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 1: get a decision here in June that will say affirmative action.

34
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 1: I mean, this is plain letter of the law stuff.

35
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 1: Affirmative action is not equal protection under the law. It

36
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 1: should be and is unconstitutional. That there was a time

37
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 1: because of whether it's you liberal, white guilt or whatever,

38
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:36,640
Speaker 1: the rationalization was that people preferred a certain policy outcome

39
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 1: of affirmative action does not make it constitutional flatly, plainly, clearly.

40
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 1: So with all of that background now we have, and

41
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:46,799
Speaker 1: I thought it was fascinating Clay, because I was learning.

42
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 1: You know, this is the great thing is when I

43
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 1: have a sports thing that comes into the realm of

44
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,240
Speaker 1: just breaking news, you know, top five stories. Let's say

45
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 1: I'm like Clay explain and it's like encyclopedia. Clay goes

46
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:57,519
Speaker 1: to work and then I feel like I know what's

47
00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 1: going on. One of the things is remarkable is this

48
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 1: guy saying these things that we were hearing him say

49
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 1: after he had already been paid, after you know, multimillion

50
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 1: dollar contracts to be a head coach, right after he

51
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 1: had already done all this tremendously rarefied and highly successful

52
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 1: stuff in the NFL. Now he's saying that he's being

53
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:17,920
Speaker 1: discriminated against, and in fact, he always feels like he

54
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 1: has to be better than his better than his counterparts

55
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 1: based on where does this come from? So the complaint

56
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 1: is a mess, and this is me analyzing it from

57
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 1: a legal perspective. He alleges that he is being racially

58
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 1: discriminated against. Now, background for Brian Flores at the age

59
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 1: of thirty eight years old, after having the job title

60
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 1: of linebackers coach for the New England Patriots and Bill Belichick,

61
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 1: who is roundly considered the greatest NFL coach of all time.

62
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 1: If you work for Bill Belichick, you have a very

63
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 1: good chance of getting a head coach job somewhere. That

64
00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 1: has been the case for many people, white or black.

65
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 1: So Flores gets hired at the age of thirty eight

66
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: years old to a multimillion dollar head coaching contract with

67
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 1: the Miami Dolphins. He is there for three years and

68
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: he just got fired in the offseason. That surprised some people,

69
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 1: but there was a lot of behind the scenes issues

70
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:20,160
Speaker 1: evidently inside of Miami, both with player and coach relationships

71
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 1: that the head, the owner there, Stephen Ross of the Dolphins,

72
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 1: a billionaire, decided to move on and hire a new coach.

73
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 1: Then Brian Flores is interviewing. There are right now five

74
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 1: open head coaching jobs in the NFL. Lots of guys

75
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 1: got fired, and he is interviewing for the New York Giants,

76
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,920
Speaker 1: and Brian day Ball is hired, who is the offensive

77
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,240
Speaker 1: coordinator at the Buffalo Bills. And there is an allegation

78
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 1: that based on a text message from Bill Belichick that

79
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:55,160
Speaker 1: Brian Flores was not really considered for the job, that

80
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 1: they already knew who they were going to hire. He

81
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:01,039
Speaker 1: also says that several years ag he had an interview

82
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,160
Speaker 1: with the Denver Broncos, and he alleges that John Elway,

83
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 1: who is one of the great quarterbacks in NFL history

84
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,839
Speaker 1: and an executive with the Broncos, was hungover and that

85
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,720
Speaker 1: he didn't feel like he was taken very seriously. Based

86
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:17,799
Speaker 1: on those details, he's arguing that he has been racially

87
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 1: discriminated against. Now, to me, when I read this complaint,

88
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 1: and I read the complaint, there's almost no evidence of

89
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 1: racial discrimination in this entire complaint. That is, I don't

90
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 1: know about you, Buck. I've gone on interviews before where

91
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,720
Speaker 1: I haven't gotten the job for what I interviewed for,

92
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 1: and that was disappointing, and sometimes I felt like the

93
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 1: guy that they ended up hiring they knew that they

94
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 1: wanted that guy, most likely beforehand. I've been almost everybody

95
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,600
Speaker 1: out there has been in a situation where you've gone

96
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,599
Speaker 1: for a job interview and you have thought, Hey, I'm

97
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,160
Speaker 1: probably not gonna get this, but I want to try

98
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,840
Speaker 1: to prove that I'm worthy of the job. Anyway, there's

99
00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,719
Speaker 1: actually a storyline for fans of the show The Office,

100
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 1: which I do think is a great show for whatever

101
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 1: that's fantasts out there. There's a storyline where Michael Scott,

102
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:10,360
Speaker 1: who is played by Steve Correll I think amazingly well,

103
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,279
Speaker 1: goes in for an interview for you know, the dunder

104
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,640
Speaker 1: Mifflin executive role, and later on in deposition, it comes

105
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 1: out that he was never really under consideration for the job,

106
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 1: but they wanted to give him the shot. Right, So

107
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,919
Speaker 1: this is this is not a new thing in corporate

108
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,360
Speaker 1: America where you go in for an interview and they

109
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:29,479
Speaker 1: think they already have somebody else picked. And let me

110
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 1: just say, unless there is actually I mean to your

111
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 1: point about the legalities of this and the reality of

112
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 1: it contractually and otherwise, and lest they less they've already

113
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,840
Speaker 1: made an offer. Even if they think they know who

114
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: they're going to pick, the willingness to give you an

115
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:47,599
Speaker 1: interview always leaves open the possibility that minds will be changed.

116
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:49,719
Speaker 1: So there's also an assumption built into all of this

117
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 1: that it couldn't even if they had or maybe they

118
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 1: could make an offer and even rescinded if they found

119
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 1: a better candidate based upon you know, whatever the contractual

120
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 1: agreement is they put forward initially. So we've all been.

121
00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:03,040
Speaker 1: I mean we've all been. And by the way, in

122
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,840
Speaker 1: the media world, everything that we deal with Clay at

123
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:10,240
Speaker 1: some level is unfair, meaning that there's a lot of subjectivity.

124
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 1: There's a lot of who's going to be this, who's

125
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,840
Speaker 1: going to be the next big that, And you just

126
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:16,560
Speaker 1: learn to do the best you can and deal with it.

127
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 1: You don't turn around and always just claim that there

128
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 1: is some force a raid against you, especially if you've

129
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 1: been remarkably successful as this guy, I mean, thirty eight

130
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 1: years old, multi millionaire head coach the NFL doesn't get

131
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 1: the job he wants and now the NFL is racist

132
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 1: based on what and I mean, speaking of what this

133
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 1: guy's been saying, I mentioned you, he's going around now

134
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 1: as part of his TV tour. He's all over the

135
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 1: media saying that he always thinks he has to be

136
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 1: better than his colleagues to be in the same place.

137
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 1: Based on what where does that come from? I mean,

138
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 1: that's also the job of competition. You have to be

139
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 1: better than your colleagues in the NFL in order to win.

140
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 1: That's Oh, but he means he has to be better

141
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 1: just to be on the same playing field. There's other

142
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 1: essentially saying I for me to be ahead coach, I

143
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 1: had to be ten times the head coach of other

144
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,640
Speaker 1: head coaches. Is basically the subtext here that's based on

145
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,080
Speaker 1: what yeah, And look, here's the other thing. These are

146
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:11,520
Speaker 1: important facts, I think too, because we live in a

147
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 1: I've told you this buck. Nobody is pushing back against

148
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 1: Brian Flores on any of these interviews, right, every single

149
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,840
Speaker 1: sports media person presumes that he is the victim of

150
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 1: racial discrimination, and no one is actually saying, Okay, Brian Flores,

151
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 1: if you're so discriminated against, how did you get a

152
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,520
Speaker 1: head coaching job at the age of thirty eight and

153
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:33,680
Speaker 1: become a multimillionaire. And also, by the way, how is

154
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:36,440
Speaker 1: it that you were poised to get another head coaching

155
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:39,120
Speaker 1: job you just didn't get the one that you wanted

156
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:43,720
Speaker 1: with the Giants. And that's also there is no business

157
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:48,079
Speaker 1: buck in the history of the world that has created

158
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 1: more black millionaires than the NFL. Truly, in the history

159
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 1: of the world. Seventy some odd percent of all NFL

160
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,720
Speaker 1: players are black. And really, what this comes down to

161
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 1: is an argument that there needs to be more black coaches.

162
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 1: It's very similar to the Supreme Court, honestly, where you

163
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 1: almost get the sense that there is an idea that

164
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 1: there needs to be a quota. But what's fascinating about

165
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 1: this to me is, first of all, everybody in America

166
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,680
Speaker 1: should be able to compete evenly to be an NFL

167
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,640
Speaker 1: head coach. Right, white, Black, Asian, Hispanic. That's what I believe.

168
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 1: The Black population is around twelve percent of the overall population,

169
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:34,320
Speaker 1: so they are widely, wildly overrepresented as NFL players. But

170
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 1: most coaches start at the age of twenty two or

171
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:41,960
Speaker 1: twenty three and work themselves up for decades to be

172
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:45,680
Speaker 1: eligible to become a head coach. Well, so to me,

173
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 1: the overall head coaches in the NFL should roughly approximate

174
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 1: not what the player percentage is, because most players never

175
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 1: become coaches, but what the overall population of interested coaches

176
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 1: are in the United States. And let's remember, I mean

177
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 1: the NFL is said professional sports is one of the

178
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 1: few places where you have a meritocracy and real time

179
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,439
Speaker 1: with real consequences. Yeah, I mean, I do know enough

180
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:12,480
Speaker 1: about them. I grew up watching the Knicks, and I'm

181
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 1: my family or Giants fans, and so I've played. I've

182
00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 1: spent way too much time in my mind watching professional sports,

183
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:19,400
Speaker 1: but I've seen enough to know what goes on, and

184
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:22,600
Speaker 1: I'm aware of the size the contracts. Clay, when when

185
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 1: you're paying somebody, you know, I mean I just saw,

186
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,959
Speaker 1: like Naymar the soccer players signed a two hundred million

187
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 1: dollar Contrasts, Okay, when you're paying somebody in the NFL.

188
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,960
Speaker 1: I mean that's soccer, granted, but that's uh, there're one

189
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,800
Speaker 1: hundred million dollar guys in the NFL. Exactly. When you're

190
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 1: paying someone one hundred million dollars, you just want the best.

191
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 1: You're doing everything you can to get the absolute best.

192
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,880
Speaker 1: And so when you're trying to assess, and there's always

193
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,040
Speaker 1: going to be some degree of subjectivity. That's what I

194
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 1: meant about the media aspect, right, Like we have tons

195
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,320
Speaker 1: of super talented colleagues and media on TV and radio

196
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 1: and podcasts whatever, and you know, it's not a perfect business,

197
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:56,520
Speaker 1: but you have to be good. But there are going

198
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,080
Speaker 1: to be some decisions made. In the NFL, they're putting

199
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 1: the best players that can possibly get out on the

200
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 1: field because there's a lot of money in it, and

201
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:06,319
Speaker 1: there's a lot of money in winning, and there's nobs

202
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 1: on it. You can tell who's better or not and

203
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,600
Speaker 1: who you know, you see this and it's like, well,

204
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 1: you know what, what what NFL franchise is having a

205
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 1: coach come forward that they think would be the best

206
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 1: fit for them and would make them, you know, millions,

207
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 1: would affect the price of the franchise, perhaps hundreds of

208
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 1: millions of dollars over over years, over a decade, and say, yeah,

209
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:29,720
Speaker 1: but I'm you know, we're just still a little racist,

210
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:31,320
Speaker 1: so we're not going to hire that guy. It just

211
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:35,319
Speaker 1: it just defies comprehension, especially given what you see with

212
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:36,880
Speaker 1: the players in the field, where they're like who's the

213
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 1: best tight end, who's the best quarterback, who's the best

214
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 1: wide receiver? And that's all that matters, right, But with coaching,

215
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, they're going to take a different approach.

216
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:47,000
Speaker 1: I don't buy it. You're one hundred percent right there,

217
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 1: and Buck, Even if some teams were doing that, then

218
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 1: by being not racist, you would gain a competitive advantage.

219
00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 1: Right if there are teams out there that are taking

220
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:02,439
Speaker 1: talented minority coaches off the board because of racism, Okay,

221
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,320
Speaker 1: I don't believe that's happening, But if it were happening,

222
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 1: then you would have a competitive advantage against them, because

223
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 1: you would be able to hire those coaches and your

224
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 1: team would win more. It's not only that racism is wrong,

225
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 1: it's that, purely on a competitive basis, your competitor is racist,

226
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,960
Speaker 1: you would get to beat them more often. And I

227
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 1: just don't buy based on how competitive every scintilla of

228
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:34,839
Speaker 1: the NFL is that any team is choosing not to

229
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,560
Speaker 1: go with the best possible candidate, whether it's for a

230
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:40,960
Speaker 1: kicker or whether it's for a GM, or whether it's

231
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:44,840
Speaker 1: for a quarterback or whether it's for a coach. This year,

232
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 1: make the Valentine's gifts, you choose really soft, I mean

Speaker 1: listening to this show and also standing for freedom to

260
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,760
Speaker 1: appreciate all of you. You want to call in eight

261
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,959
Speaker 1: hundred two two two eight two on those lines. There's

262
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 1: a new study out of Johns Hopkins University on lockdowns

263
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 1: and they crunched all the numbers and all the data,

264
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 1: and guess what they agree with Clay and Buck. We'll

265
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:30,000
Speaker 1: give you the specifics on how lockdowns are insanity later

266
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:32,640
Speaker 1: on this hour, and you need to know the numbers.

267
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:34,760
Speaker 1: And I just want to state this as a mission

268
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:37,240
Speaker 1: here in my mind and something clan I are going

269
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 1: to do. It's not enough to have them take their

270
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 1: hands off the wheel, so to speak. We have to

271
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 1: explain to the Fauchiites, never again will they be allowed

272
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 1: to do this madness. It was complete insanity really from

273
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 1: the start, and all the numbers bear that out. So

274
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 1: we'll get into that later on. But I we started

275
00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 1: out today, I mean, Clay announced it, and I'll be

276
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 1: honest with you with I almost said, y'all there, I mean,

277
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 1: I'm in Florida. I don't know if I'm allowed to

278
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 1: y'all when I'm in Florida, I need to come here. Well,

279
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,600
Speaker 1: you're in Miami, you're you know the great line about Florida, Buck,

280
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:09,600
Speaker 1: I'm sure you've heard it is the further south you go,

281
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 1: the further north you go, the more south you get.

282
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:14,960
Speaker 1: So like where I am in the Panhandle, where it's

283
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 1: right below southern Alabama, like that's super southern. In the

284
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 1: Panhandle where you are, it's more east coast. Yeah, it's

285
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 1: kind of like New York south over here. I got

286
00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 1: to say, so, I'm not sure I can yawl it.

287
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 1: But the point is, you heard Clay at the top,

288
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 1: and we mentioned in the last hour a couple of times,

289
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 1: big shake up in the media landscape, and this is

290
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: kind of thing. Remember we're going into midterm election year.

291
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:43,560
Speaker 1: You have the warring propaganda machines of Democrat corporate media

292
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,520
Speaker 1: out there that are trying to make sure that people

293
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 1: believe things that aren't true and telling everybody else about

294
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:52,680
Speaker 1: their misinformation while they spread the Russia collusion nonsense. Jeff

295
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 1: Zucker is out at CNN, and I can tell you

296
00:15:58,040 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 1: maybe I'll get into some of the specifics about my

297
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 1: experienced years ago at CNN. Clay, I don't want to

298
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,440
Speaker 1: dive into that before we tell everybody who's happening here.

299
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:08,800
Speaker 1: He had a relationship with a subordinate, very senior executive,

300
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 1: but still subordinate because he CNN was Zucker's kingdom. I mean, whatever,

301
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 1: what people got paid what Zucker wanted them to get paid,

302
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 1: They got the show Zucker one of them to he was, um,

303
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,480
Speaker 1: I was gonna, could you say the malevolent tyrant instead

304
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 1: of the benevolent Yeah, the malevolent tyrant of CNN. And

305
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 1: and now he's gone because he didn't disclose this relationship.

306
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 1: A couple of things. Claire, just want to throw this

307
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:33,480
Speaker 1: to you because you know, you also know that there

308
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 1: could there could be some big lawsuits to come out

309
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 1: of all this. The subordinate female is staying as he's

310
00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 1: staying on at CNN. He is gone. He resigned effective today.

311
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:46,360
Speaker 1: Didn't disclose a relationship. What I think so interesting is

312
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:51,280
Speaker 1: this Chris Cuomo. Chris Cuomo thought that he could get

313
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:55,520
Speaker 1: away with things that nobody reasonably could have imagined would fly.

314
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,760
Speaker 1: I mean, the helping with his brother, using his pulpit

315
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:02,560
Speaker 1: to do so, and the scenes comms assistance. I think

316
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:05,919
Speaker 1: it's because he knew about what was going on with Zucker.

317
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 1: He felt like he was covered from on high and

318
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:12,280
Speaker 1: for everyone listening to this. The head of CNN, So

319
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:16,040
Speaker 1: one of the most powerful lib media executives out there

320
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 1: is gone because of the investigation into Chris Cuomo, which

321
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 1: then led to this revelation. What do you make of it?

322
00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:27,120
Speaker 1: So there are a bunch of different angles here, So

323
00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:29,480
Speaker 1: we should say, I mean, this is all public now,

324
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:33,240
Speaker 1: Alison go Lust as I believe, I mean, I might

325
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 1: be pronouncing her relationship wrong. She is the woman that

326
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:41,000
Speaker 1: he was having a relationship with. She is the executive

327
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:46,440
Speaker 1: VP and chief marketing officer at CNN. So what is

328
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,960
Speaker 1: interesting about this? Buck and I think this adds more

329
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:52,600
Speaker 1: complexity to the overall situation surrounding Chris Cuomo, but also

330
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:56,880
Speaker 1: Andrew Cuomo and the way that CNN covered this story.

331
00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:04,040
Speaker 1: Alison go Lust worked with Andrew Cuomo back in the day.

332
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:07,199
Speaker 1: In fact, she's a veteran PR expert. I'm reading from

333
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 1: Radar online. She was the communication director for Andrew Cuomo

334
00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 1: and there have this is according to Radar, there were

335
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:23,480
Speaker 1: many discussions that one reason why Zucker initially helped to

336
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:28,160
Speaker 1: protect Andrew Cuomo and Chris Cuomo was because in the fact,

337
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,680
Speaker 1: I remember CNN had the bro Cuomos on together during COVID.

338
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 1: They were allowing Chris Cuomo to cover his brother Andrew.

339
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,760
Speaker 1: They made Andrew a hero. They tried to brand him

340
00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 1: as the anti Trump. Right there are all those Cuomo

341
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,359
Speaker 1: sexual shirts. There was the argument that he was going

342
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 1: to run for president. Supposedly one of the reasons why

343
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 1: the Cuomos were protected is because of this woman, Alison

344
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 1: go Lust And by the way, it also supposedly this

345
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 1: has been going on their relationship for a long time,

346
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:04,399
Speaker 1: that they had both of their marriages broke up over

347
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:08,480
Speaker 1: this affair. So to me, what stands out here is

348
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 1: the incredible belief by Zucker that when he fired Chris

349
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 1: Cuomo that somehow this wasn't going to come out, that

350
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 1: he was going to emerge unscathed. And it seems what

351
00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:26,320
Speaker 1: happened basically is Chris Cuomo said, hey, you owe me

352
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:28,640
Speaker 1: eight this is my this is me reading what's going

353
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,560
Speaker 1: on here. You're gonna fire me, you better pay me

354
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 1: out the eighteen million dollars that you owe me under

355
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:36,920
Speaker 1: my contract. Because they tried to argue, they fired him

356
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:41,360
Speaker 1: four cause and when that battle, an investigation into why

357
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,640
Speaker 1: he was being fired took place. My bet is Chris

358
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 1: Cuomo said, Hey, you know you're firing me for inappropriate behavior.

359
00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:53,639
Speaker 1: Do you know that that Zucker has been engaged with

360
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:57,400
Speaker 1: a relationship with a subordinate for a long time? And Buck,

361
00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:59,680
Speaker 1: I find it hard to believe there weren't a lot

362
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,760
Speaker 1: of people inside CNN that didn't know this was going on,

363
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:06,160
Speaker 1: this relationship for a long time. I was before CNN

364
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 1: went completely insane. If ten is the craziest olive can be,

365
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:13,480
Speaker 1: before CNN went to eleven, it was probably solidly at

366
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:16,439
Speaker 1: a at an eight, i'd say, pre Trump era. And

367
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:17,879
Speaker 1: I worked over there for a couple of years, and

368
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 1: you used to do CNN until you're I ban Yes,

369
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:25,120
Speaker 1: which's great, Clay is banned from the Republic of CNN

370
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 1: istan Um. But anyway, he the the reality here was

371
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:33,119
Speaker 1: that everyone knew that there was stuff going on in

372
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 1: that building for years that the media just wasn't as

373
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:40,359
Speaker 1: interested in talking about didn't come out. I was surprised

374
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:41,960
Speaker 1: that some of it took as long as it did

375
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:44,879
Speaker 1: to come out. And I think I'll tell you this

376
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,679
Speaker 1: right now, and of course can't name names because but

377
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 1: there's more stuff that will likely come out about CNN

378
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,760
Speaker 1: and the practices in that building um, but what I what?

379
00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 1: I what the question I have here? Because I very

380
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 1: much see the the Cuomo thing, And isn't it fascinating

381
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:03,879
Speaker 1: that Governor Andrew Cuomo the hero of the pandemic for

382
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:08,040
Speaker 1: the Libs, second only to Fauci and in the entire nation.

383
00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:11,840
Speaker 1: You know, Gavin Newsom was having an Emmy. He was

384
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 1: given a special Emmy. Yeah, and he had to send

385
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 1: it because you know, he was the man during the

386
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:19,680
Speaker 1: during that he was doing us. You know here I am.

387
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:21,919
Speaker 1: I want to talk today about the numbers. Let's look

388
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:24,800
Speaker 1: at the numbers. The numbers say that I am the best?

389
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:26,919
Speaker 1: Why am I the best? Because you know, this was

390
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 1: what Cuomo was doing day in and day out. I

391
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:32,119
Speaker 1: know it's pretty good, thank you. And he would do

392
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:34,000
Speaker 1: this whole thing and the song and dance and everybody say,

393
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, he's such a great leader. And then

394
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 1: it all started to fall apart. He lied about the numbers,

395
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:41,359
Speaker 1: He hid the number of the deaths by the death numbers,

396
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 1: lied about that in nursing homes, lied about what was

397
00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:45,680
Speaker 1: happening in the state, covered it up, and then the

398
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:48,320
Speaker 1: stuff about the sexual harassment, and then all of a sudden,

399
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,600
Speaker 1: his brother was covering up for him, and then the

400
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:53,280
Speaker 1: brother had, you know, had the issue of harassment that

401
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 1: came up to and then he got terminated for helping

402
00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,760
Speaker 1: his brother deal with his harassment. And now Jeff Zucker

403
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:02,280
Speaker 1: is gone. I think in part because you know, or

404
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,399
Speaker 1: rather I think that this came out because of what

405
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 1: happened with the Quoma brothers. So the domino's falling here

406
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:11,720
Speaker 1: for the left wing media is remarkable. But here's the

407
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:15,119
Speaker 1: question I have for you, Clay. Disclosing a relationship with

408
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:18,160
Speaker 1: a subordinate is a this is one of these things,

409
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:20,960
Speaker 1: you know, the way they're framing this, clearly this was

410
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:25,639
Speaker 1: going on for years, clearly when both were probably still married.

411
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,320
Speaker 1: Which this is, by the way, family's breaking up. It's

412
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:30,119
Speaker 1: a sad thing. It always is a sad thing. So

413
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,920
Speaker 1: whenever this happens, I never I never celebrate or you know,

414
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,040
Speaker 1: say yeah, look at this guy his life or you know,

415
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 1: this woman in their life is you know, in tatters.

416
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:40,879
Speaker 1: I want all families staying together, But why not disclose this? Right?

417
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 1: There must be there must be something that we don't

418
00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 1: know about the situation. And I think there are things

419
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 1: we haven't heard yet that are actually worse because this

420
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:51,439
Speaker 1: is a very sudden resignation from a guy who's i

421
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:54,119
Speaker 1: mean making probably fifteen million, twenty million dollars a year

422
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 1: to run CNN. I mean, who's who is a more

423
00:22:57,320 --> 00:23:00,840
Speaker 1: powerful news executive on the left than than he was.

424
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:03,719
Speaker 1: I mean, it's tough to come name there is well.

425
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 1: And also he was running sports, so I mean Jeff

426
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:11,800
Speaker 1: Zucker was massively powerful, and so to me, I think

427
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:15,440
Speaker 1: you're right. When these is the resignation letters pop out

428
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:18,639
Speaker 1: of nowhere, it usually means there's a big investigative piece

429
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,880
Speaker 1: coming within a day or two somewhere down the line, right,

430
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,119
Speaker 1: and they know that that media source has got the

431
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:27,080
Speaker 1: goods on them and that they're going to be sharing it.

432
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 1: My first thought is when you failure to disclose a relationship.

433
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,880
Speaker 1: Let me just say this, if that relationship had just

434
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:38,160
Speaker 1: started six months ago, they wouldn't be firing him over

435
00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:41,879
Speaker 1: failing to disclose that relationship. I think what's likely come

436
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:46,040
Speaker 1: into play here is he probably hired her while already

437
00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 1: being in a relationship with her, which is a big

438
00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:55,160
Speaker 1: no no, right if you are twenty years yeah, right,

439
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 1: But he brought her from the Cuomo office to come

440
00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,520
Speaker 1: work at CNN. A few years ago, and so I

441
00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 1: think they're probably going to be some details coming out

442
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:06,640
Speaker 1: about what he did or did not reveal. I also

443
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:08,919
Speaker 1: believe the big question here, Buck, and I'll actually when

444
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 1: we come back, I'm curious what you would do. Let's

445
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:16,040
Speaker 1: presume that CNN suddenly came to Buck Sexton and they said, Buck,

446
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,280
Speaker 1: you were on air, and we went back and we

447
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 1: looked at all the data and we determined that yes,

448
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 1: we weren't yet fully crazy yet when you were on

449
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:28,680
Speaker 1: the air, and we value your opinion for what to

450
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:34,440
Speaker 1: do at this network. What should we do to I mean,

451
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 1: this is a crazy stat. Buck, Tucker, Carlson and Sean

452
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:42,200
Speaker 1: Hannity have more Democratic viewers in the evening on their

453
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 1: show than CNN or MSNBC. Do they have lost all

454
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:51,399
Speaker 1: of their audience? What did they do to matter again?

455
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 1: Other than is a pathetic punching bag for left wing lunacy.

456
00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:00,760
Speaker 1: They would have to actually try to be a new network,

457
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:03,159
Speaker 1: and not a perfect one. They're still going to be liberal,

458
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 1: but this is what they used to be. It used

459
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,840
Speaker 1: to be a liberal news network. Then it turned into

460
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:10,280
Speaker 1: Pravda for the d n C. I mean, it just

461
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:14,959
Speaker 1: it just went completely anti Trump, ferociously insane. That's what happened.

462
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 1: Could they bring it back to I mean, I I

463
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:21,360
Speaker 1: always say this, I have more respect for MSNBC as

464
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 1: insane as the commy opinions over there are. They admit

465
00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:26,880
Speaker 1: that their commies, I mean, they don't use that term,

466
00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:29,360
Speaker 1: but they admit that they're left they're liberals, they're Democrats.

467
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 1: So there's not this pretense. CNN lives in fantasyland and

468
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 1: the anchors over there live in fantasy land on this issue.

469
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:36,359
Speaker 1: And that's why they would never debate it publicly because

470
00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:38,280
Speaker 1: it looks so stupid. But they you know, they like

471
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 1: the pretense they pretend. Can I tell you my quick

472
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:42,200
Speaker 1: Fund Jeff Zucker story though, before you go to the break,

473
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:46,879
Speaker 1: say that's what I want to hear it. I've got

474
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 1: to everybody else. It's just it's perfect for the occasion.

475
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,000
Speaker 1: I think in so many ways. Look imagine for a minute,

476
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:56,159
Speaker 1: this big bummer. You decided to get ahead with your

477
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,640
Speaker 1: tax return because you have a tax refund coming your way.

478
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:00,479
Speaker 1: You file your return, You hear back from the IRS

479
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:03,560
Speaker 1: that someone else has already filed the bogus return in

480
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,480
Speaker 1: your name and taking your refund. Does that happen. Yeah,

481
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:09,440
Speaker 1: it does a lot. Actually, this is what cyber hackers

482
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,119
Speaker 1: do online this time of year. But you can protect

483
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:15,000
Speaker 1: yourself and your identity online with LifeLock, which is the

484
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,360
Speaker 1: best way we know how to do it. Every day

485
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:18,960
Speaker 1: you put your information at risk on the internet. You

486
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,320
Speaker 1: buy something, you register for something, you sign up for

487
00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 1: something online, whatever it is, there's always a chance for

488
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:27,160
Speaker 1: a data breach or a cyber hacker getting your info.

489
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:29,359
Speaker 1: It's not personal. They just want enough data to do

490
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,680
Speaker 1: something like steal your tax return. There could be thousands

491
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 1: of dollars, right. You gotta get LifeLock to protect you now.

Speaker 1: find it. Clay and Buck we bring in now. I

520
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:07,359
Speaker 1: believe ned Ryan, who has been on the absolute front

521
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 1: lines of everything that's been going on in Loudon County

522
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:14,440
Speaker 1: and also on the front lines of helping to ensure

523
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:19,080
Speaker 1: that Glenn Yunkin sent shockwaves throughout the American political establishment

524
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:22,960
Speaker 1: by winning the governatorial race in the state of Virginia

525
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,800
Speaker 1: and then coming in and actually doing what he said

526
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:29,480
Speaker 1: he was going to do, including removing the mask mandate

527
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:34,399
Speaker 1: in Virginia schools. And now there are rebellions against the

528
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 1: idea that you should be able to choose whether or

529
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,000
Speaker 1: not you wear a mask. Ned. What's the latest on

530
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:41,880
Speaker 1: the ground there in Loudon County as it pertains to

531
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:46,280
Speaker 1: the mask debate. Well, it's pretty interesting today, Clay, because

532
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 1: the last two days were teacher conferences and grading. On Friday,

533
00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:56,000
Speaker 1: the students, my children included, who did not wear masks,

534
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:58,600
Speaker 1: were given a letter saying, if you show up on

535
00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 1: Wednesday today without a mask as we will suspend you. So,

536
00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:05,080
Speaker 1: you know, we had conversations. All four of our kids

537
00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 1: are in are in the school system here in Loddon

538
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:09,760
Speaker 1: County and the two older boys, one's a sophomore in

539
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:12,120
Speaker 1: high school and the other ones in seventh grade. We've

540
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:14,920
Speaker 1: talked through the implications and said we're behind you all

541
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 1: the way. What do you choose to do? And they said,

542
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 1: we want to show up maskliss on Wednesday, and I said,

543
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:22,040
Speaker 1: I will walk you in and we will have that

544
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:25,000
Speaker 1: conversation with the powers that be about you know, what's

545
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:27,960
Speaker 1: taking place. So as of today, both of the older

546
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:31,600
Speaker 1: boys you know, are suspended from the Lotton County Public

547
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:34,959
Speaker 1: School system for refusing to wear a mask and actually

548
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 1: complying with Young Ken's executive order. You know, it's pretty interesting, Clay.

549
00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 1: I took my seventh grader in and we sat with

550
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 1: the principle and he read the suspension letter and about

551
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 1: halfway through and it's all about defiance and willful disobedience

552
00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:50,640
Speaker 1: and all this, and I said, if you could hold

553
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,000
Speaker 1: on for just a second, And I looked at my

554
00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:57,520
Speaker 1: seventh grader and said, you know, James, principal, defiance in

555
00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:00,120
Speaker 1: the face of arbitrary rules that are not back that

556
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 1: by science or data our facts is always the right

557
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,080
Speaker 1: thing to do. And I have you back in this

558
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 1: entire situation, and I believe what you're doing as principled.

559
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 1: And I looked at the principle and said, you maybe

560
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 1: you may continue. So you know, right now, it really

561
00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 1: the amazing part, Clay, is it feels like very random,

562
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 1: you know, with our schools out here in western Loudon.

563
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,160
Speaker 1: They're saying it's a day to day suspension. If they

564
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 1: choose to show up with a mask tomorrow, the suspension

565
00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 1: will be lifted. But in certain places like Stonebridge High School,

566
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,520
Speaker 1: which most people will probably not identify except for those

567
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 1: that have been following the you know, the whole story

568
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:35,720
Speaker 1: of the rape that took place. This is the exact

569
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:39,440
Speaker 1: same high school. You know, a student was not suspended

570
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:42,680
Speaker 1: for raping another student, and they're handing out ten day

571
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:46,680
Speaker 1: suspensions today for not wearing a mask. Wait, Ned, Ned,

572
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:49,479
Speaker 1: it's buck. I mean, my blood is boiling here. I

573
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:52,160
Speaker 1: know everyone across the country joins the same way. They're

574
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 1: here this, I mean, just so we're all very clear,

575
00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:59,240
Speaker 1: the governor has said the executive order you do not

576
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:03,480
Speaker 1: have to wear ass correct optional? Right? The executive order

577
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:06,480
Speaker 1: said they are. We're lifting the mask mandates. They are

578
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:09,360
Speaker 1: now optional. But so, Ned, I mean, is there any

579
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:12,120
Speaker 1: just so we're all clear, is there any when you're

580
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 1: sitting there with this principle? I mean, what he's doing

581
00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 1: is effectively in defiance of state law and state authority.

582
00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:22,240
Speaker 1: So what is their argument? I don't understand. It feels

583
00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:24,880
Speaker 1: like they're just engaged in some kind of you know,

584
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:28,400
Speaker 1: pro fauci nullification of the law or something. What is this?

585
00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 1: What they are what they are saying is their defense

586
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 1: is that obviously the previous governor, in the previous House

587
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,520
Speaker 1: of Delegates that was controlled by the Democrats, they passed

588
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:42,000
Speaker 1: a piece of legislation saying, virgin you will follow CDC

589
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:46,000
Speaker 1: guidelines regarding mass mandates. So, by the way, the CDC

590
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,880
Speaker 1: has come out recently and said basically, paper and cloth

591
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 1: mass are worthless. So there is no real justification for it,

592
00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 1: and it really is. They're they're other school districts, but

593
00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:59,360
Speaker 1: Fairfax and Loudon, which are two of the big northern counties,

594
00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:02,200
Speaker 1: have said and we're going to fight this. We will

595
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:06,200
Speaker 1: implement mask mandates. And so people understand. Jason Arres, the

596
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:11,400
Speaker 1: newly elected Attorney General, is arguing this case today in

597
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,600
Speaker 1: front of the Virginia Supreme Court. So we're very all

598
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:16,800
Speaker 1: of us are very curious to see how that turns out.

599
00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:19,640
Speaker 1: I don't think there'll be a decision today, but I

600
00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:22,360
Speaker 1: hope that within a couple of days that we'll get

601
00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:24,520
Speaker 1: a decision that will be you know, on the right

602
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:29,080
Speaker 1: side from the Supreme Court. First of all, I commend

603
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:33,680
Speaker 1: you and your kids. I mean, we're making I just,

604
00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:36,080
Speaker 1: I just, I am so when you were telling us

605
00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 1: this story, I'm just sitting here and you know this, Ned,

606
00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:43,160
Speaker 1: there's so much discussion from the left wingers about being

607
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:46,000
Speaker 1: on the right side of history, right, They're always trying

608
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:49,000
Speaker 1: to lecture people. When I sit and look at this,

609
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:53,040
Speaker 1: and look, I've got a history degree, I am like Buck,

610
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:55,560
Speaker 1: and I bet you as well, Ned, a student of

611
00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:58,280
Speaker 1: American He just wrote a history book, actually a great

612
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:01,280
Speaker 1: one about Bunker Hill. Yes, that's right. We talked about

613
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:03,480
Speaker 1: that the first time I think we had you on.

614
00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:07,840
Speaker 1: I remember asking about that. So I have zero doubt

615
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:10,680
Speaker 1: that the people who are going to be on the

616
00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 1: right side of this issue are people like your kid

617
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 1: and your kids twenty years from now, because you know

618
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:20,760
Speaker 1: what that sounds like when you have that principle reading

619
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:24,760
Speaker 1: that letter explaining his suspension. It sounds to me like

620
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:29,000
Speaker 1: principles who would have not allowed minority kids into their

621
00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:32,480
Speaker 1: schools and argued that they were doing the right thing.

622
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:34,680
Speaker 1: And then twenty and thirty years ago, I know Joe

623
00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:37,320
Speaker 1: Biden is trying to make this George Wallace argument right now,

624
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 1: there are principles and school leaders who are effectively standing

625
00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 1: on the schoolhouse steps and disallowing kids to enter based

626
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:50,280
Speaker 1: on the flawed reading of the currently existing law. But

627
00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:55,239
Speaker 1: also there's no justification for mask mandate in schools. They

628
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:58,600
Speaker 1: have no scientific ability. So not only is your son

629
00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:01,520
Speaker 1: or your sons on the right side for purposes of freedom,

630
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:04,960
Speaker 1: they're on the right side for purposes of science as well, right,

631
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 1: which is an incredible accomplishment for a young kid to

632
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:10,920
Speaker 1: be willing to recognize and stand up when there are

633
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:14,480
Speaker 1: consequences for him taking those actions. Yeah. No, And I

634
00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:16,480
Speaker 1: pulled them on the way home because I walked them

635
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 1: both in one of the middle school, obviously one of

636
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:21,839
Speaker 1: the high school. We went through the process, got him

637
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:23,839
Speaker 1: in the car, you know, drove him home and said,

638
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:25,880
Speaker 1: you know, guys, you probably some of this probably is

639
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:27,560
Speaker 1: not going to make sense to you, but allow me

640
00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:29,800
Speaker 1: just a few minutes to talk to you. You know,

641
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,280
Speaker 1: we were founded. This nation was founded upon the idea

642
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:35,520
Speaker 1: of natural higher law, in which in some ways we

643
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:38,839
Speaker 1: have a moral obligation to reject arbitrary rules. I mean,

644
00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:41,080
Speaker 1: that would really is if you were to summarize the

645
00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:43,520
Speaker 1: American Revolution, that was the basis for it, in which

646
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:46,440
Speaker 1: founders that were not going to follow and comply and

647
00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:49,560
Speaker 1: submit to these arbitrary rules. And I said, you know this.

648
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:51,440
Speaker 1: You know some people say this is just about a mask,

649
00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,280
Speaker 1: but it's about something much bigger in which you actually

650
00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:56,840
Speaker 1: have to stand up and say no, this is wrong.

651
00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,239
Speaker 1: And again, like you, like you said Clay, that there

652
00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:02,080
Speaker 1: is no science sientific backing for any of this, based

653
00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:05,440
Speaker 1: off all the studies we now have that show that

654
00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:10,640
Speaker 1: the masks are virtually and worthless ineffective. And the other

655
00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:13,239
Speaker 1: thing that's deeply offending to me in all of this

656
00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:17,600
Speaker 1: is really kind of the bullying and intimidation in which

657
00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:20,440
Speaker 1: they literally told her kids. On Friday, my sophomore in

658
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:24,160
Speaker 1: high school, they gave him a letter and said, looked

659
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:26,759
Speaker 1: him in the einst if you do not comply, if

660
00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:30,319
Speaker 1: you do not submit, you will be suspended. And he

661
00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:32,480
Speaker 1: took the letter and he came home and said, I'm

662
00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:35,279
Speaker 1: not submitting and I'm not complying. I am showing up

663
00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:37,759
Speaker 1: on Wednesday without a mask. We're all proud, we're all

664
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:40,200
Speaker 1: proud if we can be, of what your kids are

665
00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:42,760
Speaker 1: doing here, and obviously you standing behind them, we're speaking

666
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:45,080
Speaker 1: of Ned Ryan, who was the founder of American Majority

667
00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:48,200
Speaker 1: and his book speaking of history is The Adversaries, a

668
00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 1: story of Boston and Bunker Hill, available now in paperback. Ned,

669
00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 1: do you think if you get this this decision, because

670
00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:58,560
Speaker 1: looks as go with Virginia, a lot of other I

671
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:03,160
Speaker 1: think purple politically purple states may follow. You know, Colorado

672
00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:06,280
Speaker 1: has started to have some breaks because of Jared Polis

673
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:09,200
Speaker 1: in Fauciism. They're starting to say, look the masks and

674
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:11,799
Speaker 1: is the lockdowns and all this stuff. They're starting to

675
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:15,400
Speaker 1: wake up the reality slowly but surely. If there is

676
00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:19,359
Speaker 1: a decision from the State Supreme Court in Virginia that says, yeah,

677
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:22,279
Speaker 1: the governor, the new government, the new governor, that the

678
00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:25,680
Speaker 1: people just elected of Virginia can get rid of mandatory

679
00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:29,000
Speaker 1: masking in schools, do you think that the schools will comply?

680
00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:32,520
Speaker 1: Or is loudon just going to engage in outright nullification

681
00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:34,360
Speaker 1: of law and say whatever, what are you going to do?

682
00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:37,320
Speaker 1: Arrest arrest principles? I mean, how do you think this goes?

683
00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:40,640
Speaker 1: You ask a very good question, book, because right now

684
00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:42,640
Speaker 1: I don't think we have a clear answer, but knowing

685
00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:46,440
Speaker 1: based off past behavior, from the Loudon County School Board.

686
00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:48,879
Speaker 1: They're not going to take this sitting down. I think

687
00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:52,440
Speaker 1: they will fight tooth and nail to resist anything from

688
00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:55,720
Speaker 1: Glenn Yunkin. They will do their best to try and resist.

689
00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:58,759
Speaker 1: You know, we'll we'll see. I mean, is this a

690
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:00,720
Speaker 1: young kid, by the way, Is this just a spite

691
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:04,120
Speaker 1: against Junkin thing from Democrats in the public school which,

692
00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:06,040
Speaker 1: as we know is like the heart of the commie

693
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:08,759
Speaker 1: power center in a lot of states. Is the whole

694
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,879
Speaker 1: public teachers union, public school unions and all the rest

695
00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:13,959
Speaker 1: of it. Is it mostly that or are you coming

696
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:16,520
Speaker 1: across I mean, you're a loud County parent. Are their

697
00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:19,480
Speaker 1: parents who just I don't know, can't read what's in

698
00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:21,640
Speaker 1: the news and figure out that masks don't actually work?

699
00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:24,040
Speaker 1: I mean, are they truly terrified what's going on? I

700
00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:26,319
Speaker 1: think if it makes of both honestly, buck, I think

701
00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:30,320
Speaker 1: there's not an insignificant percentage of parents and teachers who

702
00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:33,360
Speaker 1: quite frankly, do not think for themselves or accepting blindly

703
00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:36,799
Speaker 1: you know what I consider old outdated information and that

704
00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:40,520
Speaker 1: somehow mass work that they had any effect against the virus.

705
00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:42,759
Speaker 1: So I think there is absolutely a part of that,

706
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:45,319
Speaker 1: and I also do think that they are fighting. I

707
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,600
Speaker 1: think they deeply resent the fact that Young can one.

708
00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:50,239
Speaker 1: They're going to fight this as hard as they can

709
00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 1: whatever means and resources that they have. They were even so,

710
00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:56,960
Speaker 1: you know, the principle of Loudon Valley High School, the

711
00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:01,080
Speaker 1: county sheriff in Loudon County made it very clear that

712
00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:03,920
Speaker 1: the SROs in all the various schools were not to

713
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:07,200
Speaker 1: enforce in any way removing parents or students from school

714
00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:10,680
Speaker 1: grounds for not wearing a mask. This principle, Sue Ross

715
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:13,440
Speaker 1: went out of her way to call the local perciville

716
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:16,359
Speaker 1: police department to see if they would enforce it, and

717
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:19,719
Speaker 1: they informed her, no, we're not enforcing that either. These

718
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:23,440
Speaker 1: people are truly demented and out of control. Trying to

719
00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:26,319
Speaker 1: call the police to say will you back up? Are

720
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:29,760
Speaker 1: trying to enforce suspension over mass and the police department,

721
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:33,120
Speaker 1: both in the city and the county level, said absolutely not.

722
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:37,560
Speaker 1: You're on your own. Ned. Sometimes elections can lower the

723
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 1: overall temperature of a body politic. Yeah, that's I think

724
00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:44,040
Speaker 1: you could probably tell where I'm going. And so Glenn

725
00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:48,120
Speaker 1: Young can obviously wins election in Virginia. Attorney General maias,

726
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:50,840
Speaker 1: as you said, doing really good work and win some seers,

727
00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:54,439
Speaker 1: they sweep, take back the House of Delegates. All that happens. Yep.

728
00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:58,600
Speaker 1: Do you see going forward now that people are going

729
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:01,359
Speaker 1: to be just as energy in Virginia for the mid

730
00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:04,200
Speaker 1: terms as they were for the governor's election in those

731
00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:07,120
Speaker 1: other races? Oh? I think so. I mean you have

732
00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:11,399
Speaker 1: to understand Virginia ten basically as Loudon County with Prince

733
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,960
Speaker 1: William and other parts, but it's essentially Lyadon County. Virginia ten,

734
00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:17,520
Speaker 1: I think is now one of the toss up potential

735
00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:21,399
Speaker 1: take up for Republicans purely off this school board issue. Yeah.

736
00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:23,719
Speaker 1: So I've made it very clear to people that the

737
00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:25,880
Speaker 1: school board issue is not going away. School boards have

738
00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:28,440
Speaker 1: made it very clear. They voted eight to one to

739
00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:31,279
Speaker 1: continue these mass mandates the Lydon County school Board did.

740
00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:33,960
Speaker 1: I think that this will continue to be an issue

741
00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:37,440
Speaker 1: throughout the country through various school districts, and I think

742
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:40,239
Speaker 1: they will have implications obviously not only at the school

743
00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:42,840
Speaker 1: board level, but at the congressional level as well, Because

744
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,799
Speaker 1: again I will remind people, it's not just me, it's

745
00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:48,360
Speaker 1: not just the conservative Republicans. Saying this is idiotic. It

746
00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:52,400
Speaker 1: has to stop. It's democrats, it's independence, it's all parents

747
00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:55,120
Speaker 1: of all stripes saying this has to stop. We did

748
00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:58,240
Speaker 1: not sign up for this. You can't stop teaching advanced courses,

749
00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:01,799
Speaker 1: you can't indoctrinate, or what about just teaching our kids

750
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:04,000
Speaker 1: the basics to give them the best opportunities in life.

751
00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:08,760
Speaker 1: And so this is this parents' movement crosses all party lines,

752
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:11,719
Speaker 1: all party affiliations, and I think when they see these

753
00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:14,840
Speaker 1: school boards saying basically shut up and sit down, you

754
00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:17,400
Speaker 1: dirty little peasants, I think a lot of parents are saying, no,

755
00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:19,080
Speaker 1: we're not going to We're done, and we're going to

756
00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:21,040
Speaker 1: hopefully run a lot of them out of office this year,

757
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:23,719
Speaker 1: Ned man, we always appreciate you, our friend, Ned and

758
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:26,160
Speaker 1: Ryan coming on here telling us what's going on. He's

759
00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:28,279
Speaker 1: the founder of American Majority Folks. Check out his book

760
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:32,000
Speaker 1: history book The Adversaries about the Battle of Bunker Hill. Ned.

761
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,759
Speaker 1: Great to have you, man, Thanks so much. Guys enjoyed it.

762
00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:37,879
Speaker 1: Thank you. We all have someone in our life that's

763
00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:41,560
Speaker 1: experiencing physical pain. It could come about from too much

764
00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:44,520
Speaker 1: exercise or too much on the job exertion. Think about

765
00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:47,000
Speaker 1: it someone who's using a jackhammer all day, or someone's

766
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:49,040
Speaker 1: working on a farm all day, or just moving heavy

767

Speaker 1: boxes going about day to day life. Pain is pain

768
00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:54,319
Speaker 1: no matter how it comes along. Finding relief for it

769
00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:57,760
Speaker 1: is crucial. That's why there's Relief Factor, created by doctors

770
00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:01,600
Speaker 1: and perfected over fifteen years of scientific research with four

Speaker 1: back In Clay Travis buck Sexton Show, You're hoping for

785
00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:52,960
Speaker 1: a red Tide to send a lesson to everybody who

786
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:56,160
Speaker 1: has been masking your children and insisting that your business

787
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:59,600
Speaker 1: is non essential, among many other issues that are going

788
00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:03,719
Speaker 1: on right now. Big battleground state for the United States

789
00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:07,160
Speaker 1: Senate is going to be Arizona, and we are talking

790
00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:11,239
Speaker 1: now to a candidate for the seat there in Arizona,

791
00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:16,640
Speaker 1: Blake Masters, who was also incredibly accomplished in worlds of

792
00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:20,719
Speaker 1: business and finance. Blake, appreciate you joining the Clay and

793
00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,440
Speaker 1: Buck Show. How is the campaign going. What are you

794
00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:28,799
Speaker 1: seeing on the ground from voters in Arizona. Well, thank you, Buck,

795
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:31,759
Speaker 1: It's it's going well. People are fired up. You know,

796
00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:34,360
Speaker 1: it is an election year now. I saw the shift

797
00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:37,319
Speaker 1: in energy as we crossed from twenty twenty one to

798
00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:40,680
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two. You know, my campaign's up into the right.

799
00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:44,640
Speaker 1: I'm beating my opponents in fundraising and getting out there

800
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:47,279
Speaker 1: and being bold in the media, and I think we're

801
00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:50,080
Speaker 1: going to crush it this year. You know, Blake. The

802
00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:53,440
Speaker 1: jobs numbers have come out and they are, to put it,

803
00:42:53,520 --> 00:43:00,319
Speaker 1: mildly not good right now for the Biden regime. Comps.

804
00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:03,359
Speaker 1: This is a CNBC headline from earlier today. Companies unexpectedly

805
00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:07,839
Speaker 1: cut three hundred and one thousand jobs in January. Now

806
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:11,319
Speaker 1: that the Biden talking point on this continues to be

807
00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:15,200
Speaker 1: they had more job creation they call it, in twenty

808
00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:17,239
Speaker 1: twenty one than at any time I think in the

809
00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:19,799
Speaker 1: post World War two era something crazy like that. What

810
00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:24,200
Speaker 1: they mean is they're counting jobs that came back online

811
00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:27,000
Speaker 1: because of shutdowns before it. So really it's just the

812
00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:29,359
Speaker 1: end of shutdowns means there's jobs that people weren't allowed

813
00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:31,919
Speaker 1: to do in restaurants, etc. What do you see really

814
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:34,239
Speaker 1: happening right now the economy, because it feels like the

815
00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:38,200
Speaker 1: Biden team is running out of talking points. Yeah, and

816
00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:42,440
Speaker 1: that just shows you how desperate they are to cling

817
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:44,520
Speaker 1: to anything that they could call success because they know

818
00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:46,840
Speaker 1: it's not going well. We feel it, we see it

819
00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 1: every day. It's not going well. You know, Biden at

820
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:52,879
Speaker 1: this point is making Jimmy Carter look like JFK. And

821
00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:57,359
Speaker 1: unfortunately for the country, you know, he doesn't know how

822
00:43:57,400 --> 00:43:59,879
Speaker 1: to manage anything. And I think we're you know, we're

823
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:02,960
Speaker 1: nominally inflation right now. They say it's six or seven percent.

824
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:05,720
Speaker 1: I actually think it's double digits on like the actual

825
00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:08,040
Speaker 1: cost co basket of goods you know, the people stuff,

826
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:11,120
Speaker 1: the stuff people need to buy every day to live.

827
00:44:11,520 --> 00:44:13,200
Speaker 1: And I think it's going to get worse before it

828
00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:15,240
Speaker 1: gets better. It's why we need a change of leadership.

829
00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:18,680
Speaker 1: Biden is just failing. Blake. You obviously have a lot

830
00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:22,480
Speaker 1: of experience in the business world working with Teo Capital,

831
00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:26,799
Speaker 1: and you just referenced what's going on with inflation. Buck

832
00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:29,560
Speaker 1: just hit you with the overall numbers of jobs that

833
00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:33,640
Speaker 1: are continuing to decline. What should be happening in your

834
00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:36,560
Speaker 1: mind as a business guy in order to get the

835
00:44:36,600 --> 00:44:39,520
Speaker 1: country back to the employment levels that it was at

836
00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:43,799
Speaker 1: in February and March before we shut down for COVID, Well,

837
00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:45,560
Speaker 1: you know, I think we need to stop paying people

838
00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:49,120
Speaker 1: not to work. If you're going to lock down, obviously

839
00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:53,120
Speaker 1: you need to support the small businesses that you're forcibly closing.

840
00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:54,960
Speaker 1: But we should We probably never should have locked down

841
00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:57,640
Speaker 1: in the first place, you know, And right now the

842
00:44:57,640 --> 00:45:01,279
Speaker 1: business community is looking for some stability, they're looking for

843
00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:04,000
Speaker 1: some future they can be confident in. And when the

844
00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:08,440
Speaker 1: government is pursuing all of these reckless spending policies paying

845
00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:11,359
Speaker 1: people not to work, you know, Print four or five

846
00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:14,600
Speaker 1: trillion here and other trillion there pretty soon that's real money.

847
00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:17,600
Speaker 1: It adds up, and it creates this inflationary spiral that

848
00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:19,560
Speaker 1: I fear we're just in the beginning, so I think

849
00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:22,600
Speaker 1: literally reversing everything that Biden is doing, going back to

850
00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:26,200
Speaker 1: the President Trump America first economic policies, that would be

851
00:45:26,200 --> 00:45:28,520
Speaker 1: a hell of a start. We're speaking the Blake Masters,

852
00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:31,880
Speaker 1: CEO of Teel Capital, and he's running for a Senate

853
00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:35,760
Speaker 1: seat in the great state of Arizona. Blake, you also

854
00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:40,200
Speaker 1: have been vocal on the issue of specifically illegal immigration

855
00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:43,080
Speaker 1: and our wide open southern border. There's been a lot

856
00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:45,640
Speaker 1: of stuff that's come out in the last few days.

857
00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:48,239
Speaker 1: Of course, the Democrat aligned media is suppressing most of

858
00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:51,480
Speaker 1: it because it looks so bad for the Biden White

859
00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:53,520
Speaker 1: House right now. They had about one hundred and eighty

860
00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:57,720
Speaker 1: thousand illegal encounters with illegals in the month of December,

861
00:45:57,719 --> 00:46:00,279
Speaker 1: for which we just got data. We'll have the Jory

862
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:02,680
Speaker 1: data from DHS in a couple of weeks. And everyone

863
00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:04,200
Speaker 1: that I've talked to, and I've been speaking to folks

864
00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:06,840
Speaker 1: from Border Patrol, and I spoke the former chief of

865
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:09,920
Speaker 1: Customs and Border Patrol yesterday say that they expect that

866
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:12,560
Speaker 1: this year might be even worse. Last year, it's close

867
00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:15,120
Speaker 1: to two million illegal crossings. This year they think could

868
00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:18,480
Speaker 1: be an even greater degree of a violation of our sovereignty.

869
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:21,399
Speaker 1: What do you think is going to happen here? And

870
00:46:21,440 --> 00:46:24,240
Speaker 1: what do you think should be done about the pooroust

871
00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:29,040
Speaker 1: To put it mildly, really, the open southern border we have, well,

872
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:32,239
Speaker 1: it really is impeachable. There's no other word for I mean,

873
00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:35,600
Speaker 1: it's criminal. Biden has thrown the whole southern border open.

874
00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:39,360
Speaker 1: He's basically ceded all of that sovereign US territory to

875
00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:43,719
Speaker 1: the Mexican drug cartels. And it's not just drug cartels, right,

876
00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:48,920
Speaker 1: these are professional criminal racketeering organizations. If they're trafficking, yeah, sentinel,

877
00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:53,000
Speaker 1: but also weapons, also women and children. And yeah, two

878
00:46:53,120 --> 00:46:55,640
Speaker 1: hundred thousand that we know about every month. This is

879
00:46:55,680 --> 00:46:58,560
Speaker 1: more than two million people per year over four years

880
00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:02,360
Speaker 1: of Biden and Harris talking about eight or nine million

881
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:06,280
Speaker 1: illegal immigrants. And that's more people than live in Arizona.

882
00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:08,719
Speaker 1: So I don't think it's an exaggeration to say this

883
00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:12,799
Speaker 1: is an invasion. It's outrageous, and he caused it, right.

884
00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:15,080
Speaker 1: It wasn't perfect under President Trump, but it was pretty

885
00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:18,640
Speaker 1: darned good and all Biden had to do was nothing. Instead,

886
00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:20,799
Speaker 1: he just reversed all the policies that we're working. He

887
00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:24,280
Speaker 1: invited millions of people to come here, and surprise, surprise,

888
00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:26,800
Speaker 1: when you invite the world to come into the United States,

889
00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:29,680
Speaker 1: they will and we're all paying for it. We're talking

890
00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:32,600
Speaker 1: to Blake Master's candidate for the United States Senate in

891
00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:36,960
Speaker 1: the state of Arizona. I'm sure you saw this story too, Blake.

892
00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:41,920
Speaker 1: Army soldiers who refuse the COVID vaccine are going to

893
00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:45,600
Speaker 1: be immediately discharged from service. That's despite the fact, I'm

894
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:48,400
Speaker 1: sure you've looked at the data the COVID shots do

895
00:47:48,520 --> 00:47:52,759
Speaker 1: not stop soldiers from getting omicron and also, these are

896
00:47:53,120 --> 00:47:56,440
Speaker 1: for the most part, young and healthy people that are

897
00:47:56,480 --> 00:48:00,160
Speaker 1: being discharged from our services. What should happen in your

898
00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:05,719
Speaker 1: mind with that policy? I think again, I think that

899
00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:08,560
Speaker 1: policy is just criminal and it's obviously not about health.

900
00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:10,480
Speaker 1: You know, the Democrats will say, oh, we want to

901
00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:14,799
Speaker 1: maintain maintain health and wellness in the enlisted rinks. No,

902
00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:18,680
Speaker 1: like you just said, COVID doesn't hurt these young, healthy soldiers.

903
00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:23,120
Speaker 1: If anything, you know, they shouldn't get the shot. Probably

904
00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:25,120
Speaker 1: it's it should be an individual decision, but like, why

905
00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:27,960
Speaker 1: would a young and healthy soldier want the COVID shot?

906
00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:30,319
Speaker 1: Probably doesn't make sense for most of them. And so

907
00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:34,120
Speaker 1: this to me is about power, right. The Biden administration

908
00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:38,439
Speaker 1: is looking for an excuse, some pretext to fire all

909
00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:41,239
Speaker 1: of the people who don't want to go on board

910
00:48:41,239 --> 00:48:44,600
Speaker 1: with their agenda, and it's really dangerous for our armed services.

911
00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:48,640
Speaker 1: What is the top of the list for you of

912
00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:51,560
Speaker 1: what if we have Republicans, If you're part of a

913
00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:56,400
Speaker 1: Republican majority Senate starting next year, what's the top priority?

914
00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:59,200
Speaker 1: What do you want to get done? Well, we have

915
00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:03,280
Speaker 1: to is the southern border. And actually you remember illegal

916
00:49:03,320 --> 00:49:07,000
Speaker 1: immigrations illegal. The correct amount of illegal immigration is zero,

917
00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:09,480
Speaker 1: you know, but I wouldn't just want to stop there

918
00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:13,400
Speaker 1: because okay, you closed the border, congratulations. What about election integrity?

919
00:49:13,760 --> 00:49:15,439
Speaker 1: You could have a sealed border. But if you don't

920
00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:18,000
Speaker 1: have safe and secure and fair elections, you live in

921
00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:21,640
Speaker 1: a Banana republic. But then gun rights are important too.

922
00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:24,840
Speaker 1: You know, we can't let our citizen re bet disarmed

923
00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:28,400
Speaker 1: because then we'll have a totalitarian police state like Australia.

924
00:49:28,480 --> 00:49:30,759
Speaker 1: And you know, you could fix all those problems, but

925
00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:33,520
Speaker 1: if the government is just printing six trillion dollars every year.

926
00:49:33,719 --> 00:49:36,160
Speaker 1: Pretty soon the inflation will be so bad you won't

927
00:49:36,160 --> 00:49:38,879
Speaker 1: even have an economy. So I almost don't know which

928
00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:41,759
Speaker 1: issue to pick. There's like ten that are existential, and

929
00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:44,080
Speaker 1: we're going the wrong way right now on all of them.
