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 --> 00:00:08,440
Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome in Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show.

3
00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:13,840
Speaker 1: Monday edition of the program. Congratulations to the Eagles and

4
00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:19,000
Speaker 1: to the Chiefs advancing to the Super Bowl. Novak Djokovic

5
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:22,599
Speaker 1: will probably talk about that at some point wins the

6
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:25,919
Speaker 1: Australian Open in a victory for everyone who has refused

7
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,800
Speaker 1: to get the COVID shot because it is worthless, but

8
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 1: good news to start on Monday, there were significantly no

9
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 1: riots of consequence in the wake of the Tyree Nichols

10
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 1: video release around six pm Central on Friday afternoon evening

11
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:54,560
Speaker 1: across the country. I know there were some small scattered

12
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 1: flare ups, but by and large everything remained for the

13
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 1: most part peaceful, and that is a very good thing,

14
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 1: because the fear was that once more the summer of

15
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 1: twenty twenty rioting would unspool across the nation. Now, Buck,

16
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:18,839
Speaker 1: what I would argue here is that's because ultimately, Black

17
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 1: Lives Matter only gets angry when black lives are impacted

18
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 1: and white people are involved in those lives being taken,

19
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 1: and therefore it's really not black lives matter, it's black

20
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 1: lives matter. And the parenthetical when white people are involved

21
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 1: in black death. Because when the video came out, this video,

22
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 1: to me was far worse and the videos, I should say,

23
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 1: of these five police officers in Memphis, what they did

24
00:01:54,920 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 1: to Tyree Nichols was far worse to me than what

25
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 1: happened to George Floyd on video. And if you consider that,

26
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 1: while you might be upset about George Floyd's interaction with

27
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 1: the police and the way it went and believe it

28
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,840
Speaker 1: was criminal, as it has been proven to be, there

29
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 1: was a reason police were called because George Floyd was

30
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 1: trying to pass a counterfeit bill and he was also

31
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:31,639
Speaker 1: on drugs, so police work specifically requested in this situation

32
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 1: with Tyree Nichols. There does not seem to have been

33
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 1: buck any reason for the initial police stop to have

34
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 1: taken place, and all of the violence that ensued since,

35
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,799
Speaker 1: to me, is far worse than what we saw happened

36
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 1: to George Floyd. Yet, and I would submit this is

37
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:54,679
Speaker 1: the reason. Because it was five black police officers, there

38
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 1: was virtually no riot. The media has tried to argue

39
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,799
Speaker 1: and will play see an MSNBC the like I've tried

40
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 1: to argue, Oh, this is still an example of white supremacy,

41
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: but most people just simply don't believe it. And so

42
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 1: it's a positive sign that there was no rioting, pillaging, looting,

43
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: so to speak. Buck. But also this just further epitomizes

44
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 1: because the video was as bad or worse than I

45
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: anticipated it was going to be that really they can

46
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 1: only mobilize when there are white people that are involved

47
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 1: in misbehavior or potential criminal allegations. I think we should

48
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 1: have the discussion about police and policing now that they

49
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 1: always say, now is the time for reform or now

50
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 1: is the time to do something about law enforcement. Let's

51
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 1: look at the reality of law enforcement in Memphis right now,

52
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 1: let's understand what's actually going on. As we said last Friday,

53
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 1: before the video was out, before we had seen it,

54
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: because the show ended prior to the release, they wanted

55
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 1: to get rid of this scorpion. You that was the

56
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 1: initial call. So they're focusing in on an anti violent

57
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 1: crime unit in the Memphis PD. What's the reality of

58
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 1: the Memphis Police Department in recent years. It has a

59
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 1: very hard time getting people to sign up to want

60
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 1: to be cops in Memphis. Yeah, so hard that in fact,

61
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 1: the Memphis Police Department in a less brutality, more diversity initiative,

62
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 1: by the way, decided that they were going to change

63
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 1: standards dramatically for who could be a police officer in Memphis.

64
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 1: They even were willing to give felony waivers. That has

65
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 1: been confirmed. New York posts have this up felony waivers

66
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,479
Speaker 1: four cops. Oh you're committed of a felony. Well, we

67
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 1: really need cops in Memphis right now because nobody wants

68
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 1: to sign up for this. I mean they were. They

69
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 1: were giving fifteen thousand dollars bonus up from They waived

70
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,599
Speaker 1: that you had to have even an associate's degree if

71
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 1: you just had a few years of work experience. They're

72
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,839
Speaker 1: desperate for cops. Why are they desperate for cops in

73
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 1: a city like Memphis. Let's take a moment, shall we.

74
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 1: If you're a law enforcement officer in the last few

75
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,599
Speaker 1: years in this country in a high crime area where

76
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 1: a lot of the crime is disproportionately committed by minorities.

77
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 1: If you're in that community, do you feel like you're

78
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 1: going to be backed up when things get rough as

79
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 1: a law enforcement officer, No, you don't. So very few

80
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 1: people will go up to sign up. The kind of

81
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 1: people that you want to sign up aren't doing it,

82
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,480
Speaker 1: and so what you have is a lowering of standards.

83
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 1: And then a tragic incident like this occurs and they say,

84
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,040
Speaker 1: you know what we should do. Let's ban more police units.

85
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 1: Let's blame the cops even more, instead of looking at

86
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 1: these cops did something bad. What's going on structurally within

87
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,720
Speaker 1: the police department overall? I mean to talk about a

88
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,920
Speaker 1: difference in training. Okay, here's one thing I very noticeable, Clay.

89
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,040
Speaker 1: A lot of people pointed this out. I think they

90
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:57,480
Speaker 1: said there were seventy one commands given over the course

91
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 1: of the video. I wrote in twenty seventeen about an

92
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 1: incident in Mesa, Arizona, with a man named Daniel Shaver. Daniel.

93
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:09,359
Speaker 1: This was all on video, and I remember I was

94
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:13,479
Speaker 1: very upset by this case because a white cop with

95
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:18,560
Speaker 1: a rifle, in my opinion, executed a guy in obvious

96
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 1: video is up for people who have not seen it,

97
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 1: it's very difficult to watch. I mean, this guy is

98
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 1: in the white the victim here was white. The cop

99
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: was was charged with murder. A jury inexplicably in my mind,

100
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 1: got the cop off. But because the whole thing hinged

101
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:41,039
Speaker 1: on whether or not Daniel Shaver was complying. Well, he

102
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,159
Speaker 1: first of all, he did absolutely nothing wrong that he

103
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,040
Speaker 1: they he had a BB gun in his in his

104
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,479
Speaker 1: hotel room, which he was legally allowed to have. Someone

105
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 1: called the cops. They ran into the cops came into

106
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:54,039
Speaker 1: the hallway. The guy who shot him had etched into

107
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,719
Speaker 1: his ar fifteen. You know, like you know you're dead

108
00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:59,760
Speaker 1: or you're gonna die. I mean, the guy's not some

109
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 1: do you want to be a police officer? Obviously, and

110
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 1: he starts barking commands like you know, put your put

111
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,440
Speaker 1: your hands behind your head, put your put your feet together,

112
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 1: crawled toward me, keep your head. I mean, if you

113
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,120
Speaker 1: didn't have a gun pointed at you, you wouldn't be

114
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 1: hard to follow. You wouldn't be able to follow. What

115
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 1: are you talking about the guys? Yeah, But then it's oh,

116
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 1: he's not obeying commands and he he just just just

117
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 1: shoots the guy. I mean it's an execution. It's on video,

118
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 1: but he's white and the victim's white. To clay was

119
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,559
Speaker 1: there national outrage about it? I wrote about it at

120
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 1: the Hill dot Com at the time. The story went

121
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 1: viral but was there a big conversation about it seeing it. No, No,

122
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 1: because there wasn't a racial angle. Well, guess what looking

123
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 1: at commands that police officers gave and the training they're

124
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 1: in might actually be a really useful thing, might have

125
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 1: actually prevented some tragic incidents later on, but didn't get

126
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,200
Speaker 1: the attention it needed. So if you want to talk

127
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 1: about training right now, Yeah, what are the protocols? I

128
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:59,679
Speaker 1: mean when when they're telling Tyree Nichols, for example, comply

129
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 1: and he is, he's trying to comply. Cops need to

130
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 1: know the second that someone is complying and you're shouting

131
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 1: complying and hitting him, you are engaging in police brutality.

132
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,680
Speaker 1: But you know that. I have never even heard the

133
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 1: comply discussion at the national level about meaning how cops

134
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 1: should be trained to escalate through that process and not

135
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 1: say you're not doing what I want, so now I'm

136
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 1: going to beat you or even shoot you. But instead

137
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 1: it's always get rid of the unit. It's racism. The

138
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:33,600
Speaker 1: usual thing I would love to hear from cops out

139
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,040
Speaker 1: there who listened to us, and we have a ton

140
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:40,320
Speaker 1: of those listeners who have watched this video and what

141
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,520
Speaker 1: they thought about what they saw eight hundred two A

142
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:47,440
Speaker 1: two two eight A two buck. Over half of the

143
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:52,320
Speaker 1: Memphis police force is black. All five of these officers

144
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:57,440
Speaker 1: that were charged with murder are black. Yet there has

145
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 1: been a desperate attempt to try to tie this to

146
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:06,719
Speaker 1: white supremacy, which just hasn't worked. And I mean it's

147
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:10,199
Speaker 1: gone across the board. I mean, we've got audio here

148
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 1: from a couple of these different guys that I thought

149
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 1: would make sense. But the thing that I would say

150
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 1: for all of you out there to think about is

151
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 1: we've lost on the left wing. They have lost the

152
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 1: ability to analyze individual decisions and hold individuals responsible for

153
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 1: the choices that they make. White, Black, Asian, Hispanic, whoever

154
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:38,079
Speaker 1: you are. Ultimately, we are all responsible for our own

155
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:45,560
Speaker 1: individual decisions. And Eric Adams says, who's a former police captain,

156
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 1: says racism was involved in the beating of Tyree Nichols

157
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 1: to death. Let's play cut four. Chief C. J. Davis one.

158
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:56,199
Speaker 1: In my interview with her, she said that all the

159
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,559
Speaker 1: officers being black, it takes race off the table. Do

160
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,560
Speaker 1: you agree with that? No, I think that I understand

161
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 1: what the chief is saying, and I think she really

162
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 1: handled this situation in a very professional way. She moved swiftly.

163
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 1: She assured that those officers are removed from the department.

164
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: She took all the necessary steps. But I think race

165
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,960
Speaker 1: is still on the table when a culture of policing

166
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:22,560
Speaker 1: historically has treated those from different groups differently, even when

167
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 1: the individuals are from that same group, that coaches can

168
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 1: still exists, and we have to zero in on it,

169
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 1: being honest about it and making sure that we properly

170
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 1: trained police for the realities of the cities that they

171
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 1: are policing in. Okay. So Eric Adams wants to run

172
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 1: for president potentially in twenty twenty four, and he's arguing

173
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 1: that race is involved in this case. When you hear that, Baca,

174
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:49,960
Speaker 1: what do you think his analysis his nonsense. His analysis

175
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 1: is what the left and the Democrats want to hear

176
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 1: in this moment. Look, you and I expected the video

177
00:10:56,200 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 1: to show police brutality, and it did. It was police brutality.

178
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,040
Speaker 1: No one isn't quarter of this, No one supports this.

179
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 1: It should be condemned, it should be prosecuted. It makes

180
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:10,120
Speaker 1: cops jobs harder. But cops, there's hundreds, I think there's

181
00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:14,840
Speaker 1: seven hundred thousand plus sworn law enforcement officers in this country.

182
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:19,320
Speaker 1: There are going to be a handful within that almost

183
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 1: a million, who are bad people who do bad things,

184
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:24,959
Speaker 1: or who cross the line, or who in a moment

185
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:28,479
Speaker 1: of rage or whatever, have the failing that is unacceptable

186
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,839
Speaker 1: and needs to be criminally prosecuted. And I just think that,

187
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 1: you know, when they say things like this, when they

188
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 1: say things like this, I just sent to Ali. I mean,

189
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 1: I know it's an old it's an older story, but

190
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 1: I mentioned this. Well, we'll put it up at clainbuck

191
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:46,160
Speaker 1: dot com a link to the video and the analysis

192
00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 1: I did at the time. This is twenty seventeen, now

193
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:52,240
Speaker 1: going back six years Clay of the Daniel Shaver incident.

194
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,560
Speaker 1: Every time something like this happens and it happens to

195
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:59,080
Speaker 1: be involving a black man, does not mean that it

196
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 1: is racism. This also happens to non black individuals in

197
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:06,440
Speaker 1: this country. Daniel Shaver was one of them that I

198
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 1: would argue, you know that the Daniel Shaver incident was

199
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:14,160
Speaker 1: as bad as this. Actually, I you know, it's it's

200
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:16,960
Speaker 1: both individuals died, but Daniel Shaver, I mean, there was

201
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 1: there was no um you know, there were it was

202
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:22,959
Speaker 1: lethal force used in an in an incident where there

203
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:24,959
Speaker 1: absolutely should not have been I'm not this is not

204
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:29,320
Speaker 1: what about is m. It's just contextualization of this stuff happens.

205
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,400
Speaker 1: And to always make it about race when there's obviously

206
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 1: no clear correlation, there's no clear race angle does a

207
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:40,520
Speaker 1: disservice to the conversation we're supposed to have about how

208
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 1: one what does justice look like for his family? And

209
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 1: two what can we do now? Seventy five percent of

210
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:50,440
Speaker 1: people who are shot by police are white, Asian or Hispanic.

211
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:55,080
Speaker 1: Seventy You never hear about any of those incidents. By

212
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:57,560
Speaker 1: the way, most people who are shot by police are

213
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:02,000
Speaker 1: violent felons who are engaged in violent behavior. But sometimes

214
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:04,559
Speaker 1: police fail. You know that they've buried it. But there

215
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 1: was a study done by a Harvard economist a few

216
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 1: years back about who is more likely in when they

217
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 1: control for the kind of incident you're talking about, is

218
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 1: it more likely that cops will shoot a white individual

219
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 1: or a black individual in a police involved incident with

220
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,440
Speaker 1: similar circumstances, And the economists found that it was clear

221
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:27,959
Speaker 1: that the cops are actually more likely to shoot a

222
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:31,520
Speaker 1: white individual. And the thesis was because they know if

223
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 1: they shoot an individual who's black and the circumstances are

224
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 1: murky at all, or it's a close call at all,

225
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 1: their life is ruined. They may go to prison the

226
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,360
Speaker 1: rest of their lives. That's right, it's a great study.

227
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,800
Speaker 1: I read that study as well. We'll talk take your calls,

228
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 1: continue to discuss Clay and Buck here eight d two

229
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 1: two two eight eight two. We gotta tell you, look,

230
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 1: how many of you are really that comfortable that you're

231
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 1: always going to be able to go to the grocery

232
00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 1: store and buy what you need. Well, if you need

233
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:01,959
Speaker 1: a baby formula, if you needed eggs, if you need

234
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 1: a toilet paper. Over the past couple of years, you've

235
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 1: probably been into the grocery store and not being able

236
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 1: to find what you want. Why not go ahead and

237
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:13,720
Speaker 1: provide food insurance for your family. You probably got health insurance, hopefully,

238
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:17,320
Speaker 1: you probably got car insurance, hopefully, probably got home insurance,

239
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 1: hopefully maybe life insurance. All those things you're doing to

240
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 1: try to provide for safety and security of your family.

241
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 1: But you have food insurance. We do in the Travis household.

00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:23,680
Speaker 1: Clay Travis and Buck Sexton show, Welcome back to play

257
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 1: a Buck. We have been told a lot of things

258
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 1: about the war in Ukraine the last year or so,

259
00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 1: and there has been obviously a celebrity component of all

260
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 1: of this. You had famous Hollywood actors Ben Stiller and

261
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 1: Sean Penn, among others, go over to visit with Zelenski.

262
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 1: He has spoken via did did he speak? It? Was

263
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,440
Speaker 1: it the oscars or the what was the didn't he speak?

264
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 1: It's that's happening soon, right. I think he was at

265
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 1: the Emmys they just had them. Yeah. Yeah. So whenever

266
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 1: you're having when big important international people, you know, international

267
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 1: event happens, dabos, whatever you got, you gotta pipe in

268
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:11,160
Speaker 1: Zelenski via Skype wearing the T shirt. The whole thing

269
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 1: he spoke to. He spoke to our Congress, you remember,

270
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:21,080
Speaker 1: and in the obviously recently the Biden administration invited him,

271
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:25,800
Speaker 1: and this has become we're supposed to believe a cause

272
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 1: of righteousness. That also is something that we should be

273
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 1: very invested, literally quite invested in. As we are paying

274
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,240
Speaker 1: the bills here, you are paying the bills to the

275
00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 1: tune of one hundred billion dollars for this year. Right now,

276
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 1: we're having a conversation in this country about thirty one

277
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 1: trillion dollars of debt. National debt is quite high. I

278
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:51,280
Speaker 1: think by anyone standard, thirty one trillion dollars a lot

279
00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:54,520
Speaker 1: of money. We're sending one hundred billion dollars to Ukraine.

280
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 1: We're told that this is a good investment. This is

281
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 1: something that we both are morally obligated to do, and

282
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 1: strategically benefit from that is the consensus position of the

283
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 1: foreign policy elites, whatever you think of them, the Biden administration,

284
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 1: a lot of Republicans too, there are a lot of

285
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,119
Speaker 1: Republicans are on board for this. I'm just going to

286
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:18,600
Speaker 1: point out that right now there are some people who

287
00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:22,480
Speaker 1: are whispering and increasingly I think going to start shouting

288
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:28,840
Speaker 1: that Russia is planning a massive offensive with new conscripts.

289
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:32,000
Speaker 1: This is a war unlike any of the US has

290
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:36,199
Speaker 1: fought in recent decades. This is this is you tanks

291
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:40,960
Speaker 1: against tanks. This is dug in fighting positions, advanced militaries

292
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 1: slugging it out, and the Russian escalation clay is already

293
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 1: leading to Zelenski demanding faster provision. It's not even enough

294
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,119
Speaker 1: to just get him all the munitions and pay all

295
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:56,200
Speaker 1: the bills. We have to get him faster stuff. We're

296
00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 1: sending Abrams tanks as we know, the Germans are sending

297
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:05,080
Speaker 1: Leopard tanks. Now there's conversation ongoing about an even more

298
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 1: advanced weapons missile system that we could send to Ukraine

299
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,960
Speaker 1: to extend their range of being able to hit the Russians.

300
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:15,200
Speaker 1: We're back to the when are we going to start

301
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:19,640
Speaker 1: providing planes. And here's the problem. A lot of military analysts,

302
00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 1: I think Clay, are starting to see that there is

303
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 1: there doesn't There is no reality of Ukraine defeating Russia

304
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:33,560
Speaker 1: in any short period of time. That doesn't seem possible

305
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:35,960
Speaker 1: or plausible at all. So are we just going to

306
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:39,840
Speaker 1: commit to sending never mind the possibility of escalation and

307
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,240
Speaker 1: what could happen if that. It feels like we're not

308
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:45,160
Speaker 1: even supposed to talk about that. But one hundred billion

309
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:47,080
Speaker 1: dollars a year? Should the American people pay one hundred

310
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,159
Speaker 1: billion dollars a year for Ukraine to fight Russia for

311
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:51,840
Speaker 1: the next five years? Is that a good usage of

312
00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:56,679
Speaker 1: American treasure? I would argue no, particularly because, as you mentioned,

313
00:18:56,680 --> 00:19:00,080
Speaker 1: we're now over thirty one trillion dollars in debt, and

314
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:05,040
Speaker 1: the debt interest alone is continuing to eat up a

315
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 1: higher and higher percentage of that which we are going

316
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:13,840
Speaker 1: to be obligated to pay. But also with the now

317
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 1: adding tanks, the next step will be, well, should we

318
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 1: bring in some old aircraft? It seems to me like

319
00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 1: we are continuing to tiptoe into an escalating conflict, and

320
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 1: you know, the idea last year at this time, I

321
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:34,720
Speaker 1: bet Buck if you had floated the idea, hey, we

322
00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,720
Speaker 1: need to send as many tanks as we can to Ukraine,

323
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 1: I think most people would set out that's a little

324
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,760
Speaker 1: bit too much. And now we're sending tanks and there

325
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:44,639
Speaker 1: doesn't even hardly seem to be a debate at all

326
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:49,560
Speaker 1: about whether that's appropriate or whether it further embeds US

327
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 1: in this battle. And I would just point out that

328
00:19:53,359 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 1: American responses, very often to foreign interests are based on

329
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:04,960
Speaker 1: the idea of, hey, they sent the weapons that they

330
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:08,400
Speaker 1: are using to kill us. Right. One of the reasons

331
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:12,399
Speaker 1: we took out Solomoni was because he was involved in

332
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:16,919
Speaker 1: helping to provide the material to allow the wounding, maiming

333
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 1: and killing of American troops. So you are thinking about

334
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:23,560
Speaker 1: this from the Russian perspective, would you be like, oh,

335
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:27,520
Speaker 1: those aren't Americans in the tanks, Those are just American tanks.

336
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:30,720
Speaker 1: Would that distinction really start to matter to you? Or

337
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:32,960
Speaker 1: if you're Russia, are you like, Oh, America's now in

338
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,879
Speaker 1: this war against us, and that next step of adding

339
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 1: planes At some point the materials are substantial enough that

340
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 1: you have to almost consider yourself to be an enemy combatant.

341
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:48,400
Speaker 1: And we should probably think about that before we find

342
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,359
Speaker 1: out the hard way what that red locks. Maybe debate

343
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:53,959
Speaker 1: about the tanks buck. Have you seen anybody say, hey,

344
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 1: I don't know that that's an escalation. I don't know

345
00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:58,919
Speaker 1: that we need to take that step. And the fact

346
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:04,240
Speaker 1: that we've gone from we're just going to provide certain

347
00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:07,280
Speaker 1: things and there'll be limitations on it too. Now we're

348
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:10,920
Speaker 1: sending Abrams tanks, and we might be sending even more

349
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 1: advanced self propelled our artillery and missile systems. At what

350
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:18,480
Speaker 1: point are we just gonna say, you know what, We're

351
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 1: gonna give them planes, would give them everything so that

352
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 1: they can defeat Russia. The interest here in defeating Russia

353
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:30,159
Speaker 1: and Ukraine? Is it open checkbook time? Is it endless?

354
00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:32,480
Speaker 1: Is there any Is there any point at which the

355
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,680
Speaker 1: people that think that we should be provided Look, Pompeio

356
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:36,400
Speaker 1: was on the show last week and he said, give

357
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,760
Speaker 1: them anything they want, anything they need to defeat Russia.

358
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 1: That seems kind of extreme to be Is this really

359
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:46,680
Speaker 1: that important to the United States? And also how does

360
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:48,959
Speaker 1: this all look. Let's say we do go into and

361
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 1: I get all the emails people say we're already in

362
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,520
Speaker 1: a recession. We weren't in enough of a recession to

363
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,159
Speaker 1: get the Democrats crushed in the midterms, folks. So you know,

364
00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,720
Speaker 1: if we're in a recession, it hasn't really hasn't really

365
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 1: been and all that hard quite yet. But let's say

366
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:06,199
Speaker 1: we go into a depression or a major recession. Are

367
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:09,119
Speaker 1: we gonna want to fund one hundred billion dollars a

368
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,480
Speaker 1: year for the war in Ukraine? Is that something that

369
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:14,639
Speaker 1: people are going to want to continue to do. I

370
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:19,480
Speaker 1: have to say, you know, there's not really much communication

371
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 1: about this. And the people that say we have an

372
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 1: interest it's an investment in our future, I keep hearing

373
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:28,520
Speaker 1: that an investment in our security. I don't think whoever

374
00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:32,920
Speaker 1: controls eastern Ukraine matters to me in my life. And

375
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 1: I'm a little bit concerned here that we just went

376
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:38,479
Speaker 1: through a couple of wars, Clay, where you weren't allowed

377
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:40,920
Speaker 1: to ever really be the one standing up and saying, hey,

378
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 1: what are we really trying to accomplish here now? Like?

379
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:47,320
Speaker 1: What is the actual goal? Because anybody who knew anything

380
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:49,520
Speaker 1: about Afghanistan knew that it was going to end more

381
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:52,919
Speaker 1: or less the way it ended, minus the way the

382
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,879
Speaker 1: Biden administration did it, but that it was heading in

383
00:22:55,920 --> 00:23:00,199
Speaker 1: that direction. That's been the case for fifteen years. Not

384
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 1: only that, Buck, what about the expense involved if China

385
00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:08,640
Speaker 1: does decide to invade Taiwan. Because I'm sure you saw

386
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 1: the American general over the weekend that's got a lot

387
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 1: of attention. He had sent a memo basically to all

388
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 1: of his troops saying, I think that China's going to

389
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:20,159
Speaker 1: invade Taiwan in twenty twenty five. Now, whether or not

390
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:23,600
Speaker 1: that ends up being true, we know that we would then,

391
00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,159
Speaker 1: I think more so than with Russia, because I think

392
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:29,639
Speaker 1: China is a bigger threat to US than Russia is.

393
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:32,520
Speaker 1: But are we going to spend hundreds of billions of

394
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:38,919
Speaker 1: dollars also simultaneously defending Taiwan from Chinese aggression? Are we

395
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:40,879
Speaker 1: going to end up in a situation? And I can

396
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:44,760
Speaker 1: understand the argument of well, what's going on in Ukraine

397
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:49,120
Speaker 1: shows that we will stand in defense of Taiwan, But

398
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 1: can we afford to do both? I don't hear anybody

399
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 1: who hardly asking that question. But if we're spending one

400
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:57,720
Speaker 1: hundred billion dollars plus, and it's a never ending checkbook

401
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:02,600
Speaker 1: of essentially a ground ward that is that is building

402
00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:04,960
Speaker 1: its own Magino line. It almost feels like right where

403
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,920
Speaker 1: you're just embedded there and neither side can move that much.

404
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 1: Are we going to invest tens of billions of dollars

405
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:14,200
Speaker 1: on an annuity basis for Ukraine while simultaneously potentially having

406
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,480
Speaker 1: to do the same thing in Taiwan? And can we

407
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 1: afford to do both given to where our budget situations

408
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,160
Speaker 1: are right now? I think it was a real honest

409
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,199
Speaker 1: adult questions that are should be asked, that are being

410
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 1: asked by very many people. I think there's very little

411
00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 1: discussion about what the Biden administration is seeking to achieve,

412
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:36,840
Speaker 1: because anyone who's paying attention to Ukraine right now would say,

413
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:40,600
Speaker 1: it doesn't look like we will be able to support

414
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:46,600
Speaker 1: a Ukrainian breakthrough and expulsion of Russian forces in the

415
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,879
Speaker 1: next year and perhaps for years. Yes, so this this

416
00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 1: thing of oh, if we just keep giving them stuff,

417
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:56,639
Speaker 1: they'll do the fighting. Okay, five years, how long do

418
00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 1: we Because the Russian the Russian Federation, as much as

419
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:01,320
Speaker 1: were led to believe we're going to cripple them with

420
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:05,280
Speaker 1: our sanctions, it was all lies, crap, nonsense. The Russian

421
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 1: Federation is huge, has a lot of people, and is

422
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:13,440
Speaker 1: not going to stop. So I don't know. I feel

423
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:16,679
Speaker 1: like maybe maybe the Biden administration, the people that are

424
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:19,240
Speaker 1: involved in this calling the shots, they're not very smart

425
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:21,280
Speaker 1: on anything else. Why would I assume they're smart on this.

426
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,639
Speaker 1: I always approaching from that perspective. I think it's a

427
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:28,920
Speaker 1: fantastic question. And again, in the context of what might

428
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:32,880
Speaker 1: happen in Taiwan in the wake of what this American

429
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:37,119
Speaker 1: general is saying, are we able to have effectively a

430
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:40,000
Speaker 1: two fronted war. Maybe we're going to be directly involved

431
00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 1: in Taiwan and that's going to be different. But it

432
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:45,159
Speaker 1: seems like a huge mess, and it's certainly is a

433
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,880
Speaker 1: massive expenditure that doesn't appear to be ending anytime soon.

434
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:52,360
Speaker 1: I want to bring your attention to something else. I'm

435
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:55,520
Speaker 1: here today because my mother chose life. You're here today

436
00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:58,760
Speaker 1: because your mother chose life. The miracle of life is

437
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:01,960
Speaker 1: a gift that every baby deserves, because every life is precious.

438
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:05,120
Speaker 1: That's why I've partnered with preborn pregnancy clinics to help

439
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:08,880
Speaker 1: rescue the lives of tens of thousands of babies. Preborn

440
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,920
Speaker 1: introduces babies to their mothers through ultrasound after hearing the

441
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,959
Speaker 1: heartbeat and seeing her beautiful baby. She is twice as

442
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:19,119
Speaker 1: likely to choose life through love, compassion, and free ultrasounds.

443
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:23,160
Speaker 1: Preborn has rescued over two hundred thousand babies and every

444
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 1: day their clinics save one hundred and fifty babies lives.

445
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:29,439
Speaker 1: Now that's a miracle. One ultrasound is just twenty eight

446
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,760
Speaker 1: dollars the cost of a meal out. Could you make

447
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 1: that kind of contribution today to Preborn, Please consider it,

448
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:39,160
Speaker 1: Or if you have the funds, you could sponsor five

449
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:41,760
Speaker 1: ultrasounds for one hundred and eighty one hundred and forty

450
00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:46,240
Speaker 1: dollars to help rescue five babies lives. Any amount will help,

451
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:48,960
Speaker 1: whatever you can spare, and remember all gifts are tax

452
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 1: deductible and one hundred percent of your donation will go

453
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 1: to saving babies lives. To donate securely, use your cell

454

Speaker 1: also migrants in New York City. Here to second and

464
00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 1: we certainly will the northern border, though we usually think

465
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:41,119
Speaker 1: of the southern border. Do you see this, Clay, The

466
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:48,560
Speaker 1: northern border has had a seven hundred plus percent spike

467
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:54,240
Speaker 1: in migrants trying to cross. So between October one and

468
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:59,159
Speaker 1: December thirty first of last year, the border patrol covering

469
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:02,920
Speaker 1: Vermont in New Hampshire. You don't often think of that

470
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:06,640
Speaker 1: as a border patrol sector, but it is one. They

471
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:11,040
Speaker 1: have even seen a seven x surge. Now, the numbers

472
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:16,280
Speaker 1: are far smaller than what you're dealing with at the

473
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:21,720
Speaker 1: US Mexico border. Obviously you're looking more more along the

474
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:27,400
Speaker 1: lines of the hundreds instead of the thousands or hundreds

475
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:31,080
Speaker 1: of thousands that have been crossing. But it's interesting just

476
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:34,920
Speaker 1: to see that it's now from from both sides you

477
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:39,719
Speaker 1: have an illegal immigration relative surge. It's enormous that our

478
00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 1: southern border by any standard, but as a as a percentage,

479
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:48,320
Speaker 1: a dramatic increase because people realize that the bid administration

480
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:51,880
Speaker 1: is not going to do anything about about any of this. Yeah,

481
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 1: there's a there's a story buck to speak of this.

482
00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:56,520
Speaker 1: Do you know how many Russians have come across our

483
00:28:56,560 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 1: southern border? A bunch thirty five thousand Russians have traveled

484
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:07,120
Speaker 1: to the southern border, because I know this because there

485
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:10,040
Speaker 1: was a story and it's interesting you mentioned the northern border.

486
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 1: There was a story in the New York Times Sunday

487
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 1: edition about two Russians who came in through Alaska. They

488
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:20,800
Speaker 1: went to one of the small island outposts of the

489
00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:26,200
Speaker 1: United States. They fled from Russia and haven't claimed asylum.

490
00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 1: But the story was about the number of Russians who

491
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:32,720
Speaker 1: have entered into the country and claimed asylum because of

492
00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,080
Speaker 1: the war that's going on, and the New York Times

493
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:39,640
Speaker 1: number I believe thirty five thousand coming across the southern border,

494
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,440
Speaker 1: which was a staggering number to me. I know, we've

495
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 1: talked about how many different countries people are coming to

496
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:48,280
Speaker 1: Mexico and just deciding to walk across the southern border

497
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 1: and claim asylum. Thirty five thousand Russians was a jaw

498
00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:54,000
Speaker 1: dropping number to me. And they just fly to Mexico

499
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:57,200
Speaker 1: basically and then walk right across the border. Since we're

500
00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:05,000
Speaker 1: talking jaw dropping numbers, five million immigrants illegal immigrants have

501
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:09,400
Speaker 1: entered the United States since January of twenty twenty one,

502
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:13,840
Speaker 1: when Joe Biden took over five million, five million in

503
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:17,400
Speaker 1: two years. Okay, so as we're looking at the data.

504
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:21,080
Speaker 1: Now we're looking at the numbers, how much more open

505
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:24,760
Speaker 1: could the border be? And you'll notice the Biden administration

506
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:28,320
Speaker 1: doesn't feel any urgency on this issue. Isn't going to

507
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:31,479
Speaker 1: do anything other than every time they say they're going

508
00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:35,640
Speaker 1: to surge resources, particularly at our southern border, every time

509
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:40,480
Speaker 1: they claim that they're paying attention to it, it's just

510
00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:45,920
Speaker 1: to add processing so that people can be more easily

511
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 1: and readily let into the United States. Think about it

512
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:52,719
Speaker 1: this way, everyone, they're all saying, clay that they're asylum seekers.

513
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,479
Speaker 1: This is how they gain This is the giant gaping

514
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 1: hole in our system that has been exploited, and it's

515
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,440
Speaker 1: really it's really immoral. I mean, I will say that

516
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:05,760
Speaker 1: this this idea that you can lie about being persecuted

517
00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:07,520
Speaker 1: from your home country so you can skip to the

518
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:09,840
Speaker 1: front of the immigration line. There are people for whom

519
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 1: getting asylum is a life and death issue. These are

520
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 1: not individuals. Ninety nine percent of them more than that

521
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:19,400
Speaker 1: are not actually asylum seekers. And the data bears all

522
00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:22,800
Speaker 1: this out. The actual numbers about who's going to get asylum.

523
00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:26,400
Speaker 1: You know, maybe maybe one in ten will get some

524
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:29,080
Speaker 1: form of status given to them, and that's probably high.

525
00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:33,239
Speaker 1: But Clay, you have to wonder, at what point does

526
00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:37,720
Speaker 1: the Bide administration recognize that this is this is unsustainable.

527
00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:39,720
Speaker 1: If we're going to pretend to even have a border,

528
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:43,000
Speaker 1: why even go through the motions? Buck And I'm glad

529
00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:44,880
Speaker 1: you brought up that five million number because I was

530
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:48,560
Speaker 1: thinking about this the other day. You'd think about numbers

531
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,760
Speaker 1: and sometimes you don't contextualize them, and I know I

532
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:54,440
Speaker 1: do this sometimes too. Let me give you a context

533
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 1: for what five million means in a way that I

534
00:31:57,280 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 1: think a lot of people out there could understand. Basically,

535
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:04,360
Speaker 1: since Joe Biden became president, the entire state of South

536
00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:08,120
Speaker 1: Carolina we have added in population. So if you have

537
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:10,440
Speaker 1: ever been to the state of South Carolina, about five

538
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:14,440
Speaker 1: point two million people every single person in South Carolina

539
00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 1: right now is how many people walked across the border Alabama.

540
00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 1: Five million people more people have come into this country

541
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 1: illegally under Joe Biden, then live in Louisiana, Kentucky, Oregon, Oklahoma, Connecticut, Utah, Iowa,

542
00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:36,320
Speaker 1: a lot more, Nevada, Arkansas, Mississippi. I mean, think about

543
00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:40,240
Speaker 1: when you talk about five million people, you're talking about

544
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:45,000
Speaker 1: the entire state of Alabama or South Carolina and populations

545
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:49,640
Speaker 1: that are more substantial than over basically half of the

546
00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:53,160
Speaker 1: populations in the United States right now. That's crazy to

547
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:56,200
Speaker 1: think about. This is all on the premise because what

548
00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:59,000
Speaker 1: the activists and you know, the left wing will say

549
00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:02,800
Speaker 1: is are allowed to be here. They're they're seeking legal

550
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:06,560
Speaker 1: status through the asylum system. How long does anyone think

551
00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:13,320
Speaker 1: it would take to process millions of asylum claims in

552
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:18,120
Speaker 1: any sort of real way, meaning you're gonna figure out

553
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:22,000
Speaker 1: who this person is, have them prove their story, you know,

554
00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:25,720
Speaker 1: give them their day in court over asylum. The way

555
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:29,480
Speaker 1: the increasingly I think the way the Biden administration is

556
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:34,320
Speaker 1: going to push for amnesty is a backdoor amnesty where

557
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:36,960
Speaker 1: they're just going to try to make it so that

558
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:39,800
Speaker 1: they what's going on the border is the credible fear

559
00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:43,000
Speaker 1: test that border patrol and immigration, the Customs Enforcement do

560
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:46,400
Speaker 1: where you have to say very very minimal things to

561
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 1: be oh, I'm now seeking defensive asylum in the US.

562
00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:53,200
Speaker 1: They've decided that they're not going to detain people, which

563
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 1: is against the law, by the way, but they don't care,

564
00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:57,840
Speaker 1: and they let them into the country. Clay if they

565
00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 1: make it super easy to effectively get a rubber stamp

566
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:06,320
Speaker 1: asylum claim done, that's a that's a test, that's a

567
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,640
Speaker 1: switch that they could have just from the system without

568
00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:12,439
Speaker 1: necessarily getting any change in legislation. I think that's something

569
00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:14,799
Speaker 1: they're hoping to accomplish because the Republicans in the House,

570
00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:18,880
Speaker 1: I don't believe will go along with a mass amnesty

571
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:22,600
Speaker 1: through legislation. So there they've exploited the holes in the

572
00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:26,120
Speaker 1: system to let them in, to let them all stay indefinitely.

573
00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:27,720
Speaker 1: I think they're going to do the same thing. Obama

574
00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:31,439
Speaker 1: administration essentially did a version of this, but they weren't

575
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:33,800
Speaker 1: doing it through the immigration courts. They were doing it

576
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:35,960
Speaker 1: by just they were going to hand out IDs and

577
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:38,759
Speaker 1: work visas to everybody who was coming in who was

578
00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:42,279
Speaker 1: the family member of a DACA recipient. I think it

579
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:45,440
Speaker 1: was it was it was DACA and DAPPA deferred action

580
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:48,360
Speaker 1: for childhood arrivals deferred action for the parents of arrivals.

581
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 1: It was gonna be like seven million people something like

582
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:53,160
Speaker 1: that that they were going to give up. So this

583
00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:55,719
Speaker 1: is what we're heading forward. Five million people. How could

584
00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:58,520
Speaker 1: you even process that if you wanted to, I just

585
00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:03,200
Speaker 1: think again to contextual over half of American states have

586
00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:07,840
Speaker 1: a population that is smaller than that number basically, So

587
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:09,919
Speaker 1: if you think about it from an Alabama or South

588
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:13,680
Speaker 1: Carolina perspective, and remember it's going to grow, it'll move

589
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:17,319
Speaker 1: into during this Biden administration next two years, it will

590
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:21,040
Speaker 1: move into you know, probably a top ten, top twelve,

591
00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:25,279
Speaker 1: top fourteen state population where wherever you're listening to us

592
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:30,560
Speaker 1: right now, during Joe Biden's tenure, your state population, there's

593
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:34,399
Speaker 1: a good chance around twenty five states have five million people,

594
00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:38,040
Speaker 1: five point two million people or fewer. That contextualizes it.

595
00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:41,080
Speaker 1: And you know, a state like Wyoming buck has six

596
00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 1: hundred thousand people, so you basically have had ten Wyomings

597
00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 1: enter since Joe Biden became president. And if you're wondering,

598
00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:52,960
Speaker 1: you know the remember the old the old storyline we

599
00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:55,560
Speaker 1: used to hear about illegal immigrants was always they do

600
00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:58,800
Speaker 1: the jobs Americans won't do they contribute to the economy,

601
00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:01,279
Speaker 1: They're gonna save social Security? These are all these are

602
00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:04,200
Speaker 1: all the old Democrat talking foods. Meanwhile, you speak to

603
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:06,920
Speaker 1: Eric Adams or any large city mayor right now with

604
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:08,799
Speaker 1: the influx of migrants they have, and what do they

605
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:12,120
Speaker 1: all say. We can't afford this. We can't afford to

606
00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:17,239
Speaker 1: pay for the housing, the food, and effectively the room

607
00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:21,040
Speaker 1: and board of these different of these these migrant groups.

608
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:23,600
Speaker 1: And so that's why we mentioned this in the last hour.

609
00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:29,960
Speaker 1: In Hell's Kitchen, New York City. Uh, they have a

610
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 1: hotel where there are migrants who have been housed and

611
00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:37,919
Speaker 1: they are refusing. This is on West fifty seventh Street,

612
00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:40,440
Speaker 1: the Watson Hotel. The migrants were told Clay they should

613
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:43,319
Speaker 1: move to the Brooklyn Cruise Ship Terminal where they've set

614
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:46,920
Speaker 1: up a facility for migrants, and they're protesting outside the

615
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:49,799
Speaker 1: hotel where they're staying at tax payer expense, saying, now

616
00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:52,120
Speaker 1: we like the four star hotel. I think we're gonna

617
00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:54,440
Speaker 1: stay here. We don't want to go to the other place.

618
00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:58,200
Speaker 1: That's I'm just that this is the mentality everybody. This

619
00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:00,239
Speaker 1: is what's going on, and you are paying for it.

620
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:04,080
Speaker 1: If you wonder why people are coming. Imagine that you

621
00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:08,880
Speaker 1: are living incredibly poor in Latin America and one of

622
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:13,439
Speaker 1: your friends or family members texts you and says, hey,

623
00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:17,719
Speaker 1: I'm in New York City now, right off Times Square

624
00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:23,000
Speaker 1: in a four star hotel. I got cable, I got

625
00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:28,799
Speaker 1: you know, heating air, great bathroom. This is how rich

626
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:31,520
Speaker 1: the United States is. They're just putting us up in

627
00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:34,960
Speaker 1: hotels that are probably nicer than almost any hotels that

628
00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:37,799
Speaker 1: exist in many of the countries where these guys are

629
00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:41,120
Speaker 1: coming from. Do you think that's gonna persuade you that

630
00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:44,440
Speaker 1: you shouldn't come, or you're gonna be like, this is amazing.

631
00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:48,000
Speaker 1: And remember they also probably got a free bus ride

632
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:51,239
Speaker 1: to New York City from Texas to right on top

633
00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:55,359
Speaker 1: of everything else, you came across illegally and you say, okay,

634
00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:56,960
Speaker 1: where would you like to go? And you're like New

635
00:37:57,040 --> 00:37:59,279
Speaker 1: York City and you get popped on a bus. Next

636
00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:00,759
Speaker 1: thing you know, you're a New York City staying in

637
00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:03,560
Speaker 1: a four star hotel. Again. I just questioned how many

638
00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:06,320
Speaker 1: people in our in our listening audience have ever gotten

639
00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:08,880
Speaker 1: to stay in a four star hotel in Manhattan, much

640
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,520
Speaker 1: less our taxpayers paying for it. It's crazy. I'm an

641
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:13,799
Speaker 1: American citizen, and if I showed up to a four

642
00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:16,439
Speaker 1: star hotel, and I've been paying taxes for a long time,

643
00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:19,560
Speaker 1: haven't gotten very much for it. If I showed up

644
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:21,840
Speaker 1: at a four star hotel and said I'm going to

645
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 1: stay here for free and have people bring me food

646
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:27,719
Speaker 1: for free and I get to do whatever I want

647
00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:31,040
Speaker 1: and this is now my home, I assume hotel management

648
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:32,880
Speaker 1: would call the police and I would be arrested right

649
00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:35,239
Speaker 1: like that. That would just be my assumption. Now, I

650
00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:37,520
Speaker 1: know they've been told by the government authorities that they

651
00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:40,279
Speaker 1: can stay here, but now they're being told you gotta go,

652
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:43,279
Speaker 1: and they're saying, no, no, We're gonna actually try to

653
00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:46,960
Speaker 1: just stay here at taxpayer expense. It's hundreds of millions

654
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:49,200
Speaker 1: of dollars. Everybody, can I also just put that out there,

655
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:51,200
Speaker 1: This is not a small amount of money that the

656
00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:53,400
Speaker 1: City of New York is spending to houses migrants. And

657
00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:56,080
Speaker 1: this is why it was only that one time. But

658
00:38:56,280 --> 00:39:03,480
Speaker 1: when the migrants were dropped off in Martha's Ard, Martha's vineyard, Yeah,

659
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:06,800
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm sorry Nantucket. Oh my gosh, the vineyard

660
00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:09,360
Speaker 1: people are like, how dare you it was Nantucket, wasn't it.

661
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 1: I think it was Martha's vineyard first time. Yeah, yes, Okay,

662
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:15,520
Speaker 1: So when they were dropped off on one of those

663
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:20,080
Speaker 1: fancy islands, um it was. It showed you what's really

664
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:24,960
Speaker 1: going on. It showed you fifty people is all it took. Um. Yeah,

665
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:28,120
Speaker 1: that's that's all it took. It's it's amazing that this

666
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:33,440
Speaker 1: is what ended up happening. So I I just I

667
00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:36,120
Speaker 1: can't get over buck. I mean again, for anybody out

668
00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:40,160
Speaker 1: there who's who's listening to us, four star hotel in

669
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:45,120
Speaker 1: the heart of Manhattan, Your taxpayer dollars are going to

670
00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 1: put illegal immigrants in four star hotels in the heart

671
00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:52,160
Speaker 1: of Manhattan. And I just what percentage of you listening

672
00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:54,600
Speaker 1: to us right now could afford to go on a

673
00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:58,120
Speaker 1: vacation right now and stay in a four star hotel

674
00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:03,120
Speaker 1: in the heart of Manhattan. I bet not a huge percentage, right,

675
00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:05,719
Speaker 1: Take your whole family travel there. You'd have to pay

676
00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:09,239
Speaker 1: for all of it. Illegal immigrants are doing it on

677
00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:13,880
Speaker 1: your taxpayer dollars. I just want what's the and what

678
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:16,480
Speaker 1: is the expect These These are people who are really

679
00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:18,719
Speaker 1: not supposed to be in the country. At all? Yes,

680
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:21,120
Speaker 1: And can they live in this? Can they live in

681
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:24,960
Speaker 1: a taxpayer expense for two years? For five years? You know,

682
00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:26,600
Speaker 1: how long did they get they put up in this

683
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:29,360
Speaker 1: hotel for how long are taxpayers on the hook for this?

684
00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:33,759
Speaker 1: The Democrats are doing that, they're protesting because they don't

685
00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:35,960
Speaker 1: want it to add But think about what the incentive

686
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:39,319
Speaker 1: structure you are sending for people in poor countries who

687
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:42,280
Speaker 1: here that this is what happens when you come to America.

688
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:44,560
Speaker 1: Wouldn't you travel if you had an awful existence in

689
00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:46,520
Speaker 1: a Latin American country and you heard you could stay

690
00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:49,239
Speaker 1: in a four star hotel in New York City. I mean,

691
00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:52,040
Speaker 1: the incentive structures completely broken. If I were a New

692
00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:55,640
Speaker 1: Yorker who had been evicted from my house or you know,

693
00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:58,200
Speaker 1: my home in the last six months, I would be

694
00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:01,480
Speaker 1: really really angry because you know, you didn't pay the bank,

695
00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:04,800
Speaker 1: so you have to go. But other people are getting

696
00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:09,799
Speaker 1: free housing at taxpayer for what on what basis they're

697
00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:13,319
Speaker 1: not even supposed to be in the country. Yeah, that's

698
00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:18,160
Speaker 1: a great question. Internet security but continues to be an issue.

699
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:20,680
Speaker 1: Do you know if you're a Team Mobile subscriber they

700
00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:27,080
Speaker 1: lost and had hacked thirty seven million customer datas all

701
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:30,280
Speaker 1: out there right after the New year, cyber hackers gaining

702
00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 1: basically all the data they could want from Team Mobile

703
00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:37,480
Speaker 1: thirty seven million people that can be exploited. Cyber Hackers

704
00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:41,160
Speaker 1: can use this information to commit online identity theft. And

705
00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:46,080
Speaker 1: how would you know if you're online info is included here? Well,

733
00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:34,359
Speaker 1: even if I have to, like the smart guy from

734
00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:39,280
Speaker 1: Killigan's Island, find some wire and coconuts on the island.

735
00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:41,960
Speaker 1: I'll be in in the Pacific. I'll watch that super Bowl.

736
00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:44,120
Speaker 1: So you think they will show the Super Bowl where

737
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:46,040
Speaker 1: you are going to be, Like, do you think let's

738
00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:48,160
Speaker 1: presume that I don't even know what the time zone

739
00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:50,680
Speaker 1: difference is. But let's presume you were a die hard

740
00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:53,160
Speaker 1: sports fan. Do you think you'd be You're gonna be

741
00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,479
Speaker 1: in boor Bow. I don't how big it's boor Board

742
00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:57,160
Speaker 1: that I just like, there's like a hundred people there,

743
00:43:57,200 --> 00:43:58,680
Speaker 1: and I gave I have no idea how big this

744
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:01,120
Speaker 1: island that you're gonna be on is. I mean, I

745
00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:02,960
Speaker 1: was just gonna leave it South Pacific because that's a

746
00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:08,040
Speaker 1: large area Clay. But anyway, I think that there has

747
00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:11,719
Speaker 1: to be thousands and thousands of people on holiday, on

748
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:14,440
Speaker 1: vacation whatever out there. Do you think you could find it?

749
00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:16,759
Speaker 1: Do you think it airs on that island in the

750
00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:20,239
Speaker 1: South Pacific? Yeah? I would, I would think so. I

751
00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:22,960
Speaker 1: would think so. Look, I'm still reeling from the knowledge

752
00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:27,520
Speaker 1: that my beloved Cincinnati Bengals failed to pull it out

753
00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:29,560
Speaker 1: last night. Now that you just told me this, it's

754
00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:33,840
Speaker 1: very sad for me. Lots of officiating controversies built into this.

755
00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:36,920
Speaker 1: But that ties in very well with the audio that

756
00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 1: I want to play you. All Right, So Cincinnati has

757
00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:43,400
Speaker 1: a young mayor and I don't even know exactly. Let

758
00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:45,040
Speaker 1: me see if I can get his name right. Um,

759
00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:47,680
Speaker 1: he's only been in office for a fourth period of

760
00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:52,600
Speaker 1: time and he's his name is Aftab Puraval. I might

761
00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:55,400
Speaker 1: have gotten that wrong. I believe he's of South Asian descent.

762
00:44:56,160 --> 00:45:01,480
Speaker 1: Aftab Purival relatively young guy, around forty years old, is

763
00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:05,560
Speaker 1: only recently elected as mayor. Okay, Buck, he is under

764
00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:11,160
Speaker 1: a tremendous amount of fire right now because he delivered.

765
00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:15,000
Speaker 1: You know, it's not uncommon for politicians. For instance, I

766
00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:18,600
Speaker 1: saw our friends JD. Vance and Josh Holly senator from Ohio,

767
00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:24,400
Speaker 1: Senator from Missouri. I think also Roger Marshall, Senator from Kansas,

768
00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:29,400
Speaker 1: got involved Kansas City Chiefs versus Cincinnati Bengals. I think

769
00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:33,480
Speaker 1: they bet barbecue or something along those lines. Not uncommon

770
00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:37,759
Speaker 1: for politicians to make wagers with mayors, governors, anything else

771
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:42,800
Speaker 1: like that. I have never heard this level of trash talk.

772
00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:46,759
Speaker 1: This was an official statement put out by Cincinnati's mayor

773
00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:49,120
Speaker 1: before the game. Buck, you haven't heard this at all.

774
00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:51,040
Speaker 1: I don't know how many of you heard this, but

775
00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:53,920
Speaker 1: he is under immense fire because the Bengals go on

776
00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:58,560
Speaker 1: to lose and they actually took the mayor's trash talk

777
00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:01,279
Speaker 1: to heart. Listen to this. I have a proclamation from

778
00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:03,560
Speaker 1: the desk of the mayor be it proclaimed. Whereas the

779
00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:07,480
Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals are headed to Burrowhead Stadium for their second

780
00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:12,040
Speaker 1: consecutive AFC Championship game. Whereas last year's game, the Bengals

781
00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:14,760
Speaker 1: scored more points than the Chiefs, resulting in a Bengals

782
00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:18,600
Speaker 1: victory and the Chief's loss. Whereas Joseph Lee Burrow, who's

783
00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:21,640
Speaker 1: three and l against Mahomes, has been asked by officials

784
00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:24,400
Speaker 1: to take a paternity test. It's confirming whether or not

785
00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:27,719
Speaker 1: he's his father. Whereas all season long, Cincinnati has been

786
00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:30,840
Speaker 1: on a path of destiny, fighting it out to overcome

787
00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:33,879
Speaker 1: anyone who stands between them and a Super Bowl win.

788
00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:37,759
Speaker 1: And whereas Kansas City is named after its neighboring state,

789
00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:40,320
Speaker 1: which is, you know, just kind of weird. Now, therefore

790
00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:42,279
Speaker 1: I have to have pure of all, Mayor of the

791
00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:46,160
Speaker 1: City of Cincinnati, do hereby proclaim January twenty nine, twenty

792
00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:51,040
Speaker 1: twenty three, as they got to play us day in Cincinnati. Okay, Buck,

793
00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:52,880
Speaker 1: I don't know how much of that you picked up

794
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:55,040
Speaker 1: on for people out there who may not. He called

795
00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:59,200
Speaker 1: it Burrowhead Stadium, all right. Arrowhead Stadium is the name

796
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:02,719
Speaker 1: of the state him in Kansas City, and Joseph Joe

797
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:06,279
Speaker 1: Burrow is the quarterback, so that's pretty heavy level of

798
00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:10,000
Speaker 1: a trash doc. He also said the paternity test line,

799
00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:15,160
Speaker 1: whether the Cincinnati Bengals quarterback needed to be uh, you know,

800
00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:17,040
Speaker 1: the test to see whether or not he was Patrick

801
00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:21,759
Speaker 1: Mahomes's father. Now, immediately after the game, Travis Kelsey, who

802
00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:24,520
Speaker 1: is a star tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs,

803
00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:26,879
Speaker 1: had a very good game, as he always did does,

804
00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:30,759
Speaker 1: called out the Cincinnati mayor on the stage. Listen to this,

805
00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:45,040
Speaker 1: John manaos, all right? He also said, and maybe we

806
00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:47,800
Speaker 1: can grab the other audio. He called out the mayor

807
00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:50,040
Speaker 1: and told him to stay in his lane and called

808
00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:53,440
Speaker 1: him a JABRONI. The crowd went crazy. This is now

809
00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:54,960
Speaker 1: we need to grab that one too. It's on my

810
00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:59,239
Speaker 1: Twitter feed. If the crew can grab it. Is Cincinnati's

811
00:47:59,280 --> 00:48:03,600
Speaker 1: mayor in political peril now over because everybody's saying that

812
00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:07,000
Speaker 1: his trash talk helped to motivate. And I think if

813
00:48:07,040 --> 00:48:10,680
Speaker 1: you hear this Travis Kelsey audio, it clearly did like

814
00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:12,920
Speaker 1: they all knew what he had said. He calls out

815
00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:17,080
Speaker 1: the mayor specifically during the celebration. I actually think that

816
00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:20,400
Speaker 1: the city of Cincinnati is so beingles crazy I actually

817
00:48:20,480 --> 00:48:23,399
Speaker 1: think the mayor is in some political peril here over

818
00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:26,279
Speaker 1: trying to trash talk and doing such a bad job

819
00:48:26,360 --> 00:48:29,320
Speaker 1: of it. I don't know that I've ever heard a

820
00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:34,279
Speaker 1: politician trash talk like that before. I agree, I'm telling you,

821
00:48:36,160 --> 00:48:40,719
Speaker 1: m yeah, there are people upset about this. Is that

822
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:43,319
Speaker 1: where this is? Is there a lot of controversy over

823
00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:46,919
Speaker 1: the Let me guess the paternity line got him into

824
00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:49,440
Speaker 1: is that is that what got him into trouble. I

825
00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:52,720
Speaker 1: don't think it's so much like the politically incorrect nature

826
00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:54,640
Speaker 1: of anything that he said, because I again, it was

827
00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:57,719
Speaker 1: just kind of trash talk. It was the fact that

828
00:48:58,280 --> 00:49:00,880
Speaker 1: he basically, you know, it's like you poke a tiger

829
00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:04,040
Speaker 1: right like that. They're already ironically, I guess since they're

830
00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:07,800
Speaker 1: the Bengals, they're all you're going into a tough environment already.

831
00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:11,400
Speaker 1: You never want to say, like, oh, the stadium's overrated,

832
00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:15,000
Speaker 1: the fans are overrated, the quarterbacks overrated. It's a big game,

833
00:49:15,120 --> 00:49:17,920
Speaker 1: like everybody wants to win. If you want to talk

834
00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:20,560
Speaker 1: a little bit of trash after you win, maybe, And

835
00:49:20,600 --> 00:49:22,440
Speaker 1: it was a close to hard fought game, went down

836
00:49:22,480 --> 00:49:26,240
Speaker 1: to basically the final play, but in the immediate aftermath,

837
00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:27,840
Speaker 1: and we need to I need to play the Travis

838
00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:31,479
Speaker 1: Kelsey audio for you, which is on my Twitter feed.

839
00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:34,960
Speaker 1: But as they are handing him the championship trophy for

840
00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:40,280
Speaker 1: the AFC, he goes full WWE old school WWF wrestling

841
00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:44,919
Speaker 1: heel promo and like that. If you checked, the mayor

842
00:49:45,120 --> 00:49:47,400
Speaker 1: was trending last night, which is never a good sign

843
00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:49,880
Speaker 1: for the mayor of the city. And I went in

844
00:49:50,040 --> 00:49:53,000
Speaker 1: just to go read dimensions and it was all Bengals

845
00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:58,480
Speaker 1: fans just eviscerating him. So as the blaming him for

846
00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:00,600
Speaker 1: the loss as well, Yeah, they're like, you idiot, why

847
00:50:00,640 --> 00:50:04,839
Speaker 1: did you do such a ridiculous viral trash talk proclamation?

848
00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:06,879
Speaker 1: You know, it's one thing if you're like, hey, I'll

849
00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:11,320
Speaker 1: bet you mean do adults really need to be told

850
00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:15,160
Speaker 1: that it doesn't matter what the mayor says? My argument,

851
00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:18,839
Speaker 1: I think the mayor's statement did motivate the chiefs more

852
00:50:19,200 --> 00:50:22,680
Speaker 1: than they otherwise would have been. And so I do

853
00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:25,520
Speaker 1: we have this audio now here cut twenty seven, Here's

854
00:50:25,560 --> 00:50:28,400
Speaker 1: what happened to the media aftermath. If I'm running against

855
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:31,959
Speaker 1: this mayor in Cincinnati, Buck, this is in my first advertisement.

856
00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:36,040
Speaker 1: Listen wise, worse for that Cincinnati mayor. No, your role

857
00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:47,080
Speaker 1: is shut your mouth, you Jo BRONI right, Well, granted,

858
00:50:47,160 --> 00:50:50,480
Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey is not exactly an esteemed uh you know,

859
00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:55,000
Speaker 1: debate participant here. But I actually think that this mayor

860
00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:58,719
Speaker 1: is going to bear some electoral blame over this. People

861
00:50:58,760 --> 00:51:03,400
Speaker 1: are furious. They want a couple of years. I don't know.

862
00:51:03,480 --> 00:51:07,000
Speaker 1: I'm not an expert in the CBO oral politics. He's not.

863
00:51:07,160 --> 00:51:12,200
Speaker 1: It's remember if my team lost a close game and

864
00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:14,680
Speaker 1: our idiot mayor, and we do have an idiot mayor

865
00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:17,279
Speaker 1: here in Nashville, I would not put it past him.

866
00:51:17,520 --> 00:51:20,000
Speaker 1: If our idiot mayor did something that I thought made

867
00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:22,680
Speaker 1: it more likely that he would that my team lost,

868
00:51:22,719 --> 00:51:24,680
Speaker 1: I would not vote for him. I think I'm not

869
00:51:24,800 --> 00:51:28,279
Speaker 1: even kidding about this. I think he's gonna have electoral significance.

870
00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:32,640
Speaker 1: For this guy in Cincinnati. I have more faith in

871
00:51:32,719 --> 00:51:36,120
Speaker 1: the voting CTI than for them to care about the

872
00:51:36,239 --> 00:51:39,360
Speaker 1: trash talking of the mayor. But if you're in Cincinnati

873
00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:42,440
Speaker 1: and you agree with me or back eight hundred two

874
00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:44,120
Speaker 1: eight two two eight eight two, we can have some

875
00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:47,440
Speaker 1: fun with this. Um So I've never heard have you

876
00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:49,799
Speaker 1: ever heard anything like that? You are a casual fan

877
00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:51,960
Speaker 1: at best of things like this. Have you ever heard

878
00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:55,600
Speaker 1: of mayor say anything that aggressive? No. I do remember

879
00:51:56,640 --> 00:52:00,520
Speaker 1: back when I used to watch, uh, the NBA, that

880
00:52:00,719 --> 00:52:03,360
Speaker 1: there were very because if you were a Knicks, a

881
00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:07,520
Speaker 1: long suffering Knicks fan, you had many close calls where

882
00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:10,000
Speaker 1: they got you know, the Eastern Conference Finals and loss

883
00:52:10,040 --> 00:52:12,799
Speaker 1: of the Pacers or something like that, and they should

884
00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:14,840
Speaker 1: have won. They never won a championship. But I remember

885
00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:19,440
Speaker 1: that there were people who were blaming Spike Lee for

886
00:52:20,719 --> 00:52:24,800
Speaker 1: getting up in Reggie Miller's face totally. But now that

887
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:27,919
Speaker 1: I can see, because that's face to face on the court,

888
00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:31,480
Speaker 1: because Spike Lee was always sitting in courtside, and people

889
00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:35,600
Speaker 1: said that he antagonizing Reggie Miller. Got Reggie Miller, who

890
00:52:35,680 --> 00:52:37,279
Speaker 1: at that point was one of the best three point

891
00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:40,759
Speaker 1: shooters of all time, got him in the zone, and

892
00:52:41,239 --> 00:52:45,200
Speaker 1: the Knicks lost. You know, I don't think I think

893
00:52:45,239 --> 00:52:47,239
Speaker 1: that's one hundred percent true. I think Spike Lee might

894
00:52:47,320 --> 00:52:51,040
Speaker 1: have cost the Knicks a finals, uh you know, opportunity

895
00:52:52,040 --> 00:52:54,600
Speaker 1: in that in that series, because if I remember correctly,

896
00:52:54,640 --> 00:52:58,000
Speaker 1: the Pacers advanced and played against the Bulls instead. Yeah,

897
00:52:58,040 --> 00:52:59,680
Speaker 1: that was a tough one. In Game seven when you're

898
00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:02,319
Speaker 1: Knicks lost to the Houston Rockets back in the day. Yeah,

899
00:53:02,360 --> 00:53:04,400
Speaker 1: and I do remember, wasn't there a guy? Was it

900
00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:09,759
Speaker 1: the Cubs? Now we're sorry, folks were knowledge what Steve

901
00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:13,200
Speaker 1: Bartman reached out and kept the pass being caught. Yes, wow,

902
00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:14,680
Speaker 1: you know the name of the guy, right? Oh, I

903
00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:17,239
Speaker 1: mean he's he's he's an iconic. But now the Cubs

904
00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:19,360
Speaker 1: have won a World Series since, so I think it

905
00:53:19,640 --> 00:53:23,880
Speaker 1: lessened some of the sting of that defeat. But he

906
00:53:24,040 --> 00:53:27,719
Speaker 1: reached out in a game against the Florida Marlins. I

907
00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:30,000
Speaker 1: think they're the Miami Marlins. Now I can barely keep up,

908
00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:32,640
Speaker 1: but but yeah, he reached I don't remember which one

909
00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:35,080
Speaker 1: they were at the time, but he reached out over

910
00:53:35,200 --> 00:53:37,440
Speaker 1: the field after a foul ball. And he basically has

911
00:53:37,480 --> 00:53:39,480
Speaker 1: gone into hiding. I mean, the reason why that guy's

912
00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:42,320
Speaker 1: kind of famous is he's never done an interview. He

913
00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:46,360
Speaker 1: vanished from like basically being able to be tracked anywhere.

914
00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:49,520
Speaker 1: This isn't a pre social media era, because I think

915
00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:51,879
Speaker 1: that was, if I remember correctly, like oh two or three,

916
00:53:52,960 --> 00:53:56,200
Speaker 1: and I don't think he's ever spoken publicly in twenty

917
00:53:56,320 --> 00:53:59,640
Speaker 1: years since. That actually ended up happening because he became

918
00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:03,200
Speaker 1: the villain of why the Cubs lost in that postseason.

919
00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:06,040
Speaker 1: So they made that catch. In theory, they would have

920
00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:10,600
Speaker 1: they would have gone on and won a championship in theory.

921
00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:13,680
