1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:07,440 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show. 3 00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:09,440 Speaker 1: Appreciate all of you hanging out with us. We're ready 4 00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:13,400 Speaker 1: to roll you into what will hopefully be a fun weekend. 5 00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:17,560 Speaker 1: As we you tear through the Friday edition of the program, 6 00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:19,759 Speaker 1: give me a little heads up on guests. We're gonna 7 00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 1: have Lieutenant Colonel Jim Karafano as a VP of National 8 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:26,360 Speaker 1: Security and Foreign Policy at the Heritage Foundation. And we'll 9 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:31,200 Speaker 1: also talk with Kenny Shoe about an inconvenient minority, the 10 00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:34,680 Speaker 1: advocacy group color US United, and the way that different 11 00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:38,159 Speaker 1: ethnic groups are treated in the United States, particularly Asians. 12 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:41,360 Speaker 1: I think that's gonna be an interesting conversation. Some news 13 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:46,080 Speaker 1: right off the top here, Joe Mansion, senator from West Virginia, 14 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:49,159 Speaker 1: who flirts with the Republicans on a regular basis, the 15 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:53,600 Speaker 1: most moderate of all of the Democratic senators, announced this 16 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:57,720 Speaker 1: morning that he will be voting for Katangi Brown Jackson's 17 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:04,320 Speaker 1: nomination on United State Supreme Court, effectively ending any drama 18 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:08,480 Speaker 1: that might surround her ascension to the Supreme Court. So 19 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 1: that is basically a done deal, barring some sort of 20 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 1: crazy revelation, which it's hard to imagine what that would entail. 21 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 1: So that will happen in early April. She will replace 22 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:25,399 Speaker 1: Judge Stephen Bryer when the Court term ends. So I 23 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:29,320 Speaker 1: do think that the Republicans scored a lot of points politically, 24 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:33,720 Speaker 1: further elucidating the argument for why Republicans in the mid 25 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,040 Speaker 1: term makes so much sense. But in terms of what 26 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 1: is going to happen to her in her nomination, she 27 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 1: is effectively on the Supreme Court with that announcement from 28 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 1: Joe Manchion, and now the only drama, to the extent 29 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 1: that there's drama at all, will be to what extent 30 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 1: will Republicans support her nomination? How many Republicans will she get? Two? Three, 31 00:01:56,480 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 1: whatever that number is matter, I'm gonna go. I think 32 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 1: Susan Collins in Maine is going to end up voting 33 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 1: for her. I think that there may well be a 34 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 1: couple of guys who are resigning resigning is the wrong word, 35 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 1: who are retiring from the Senate who could consider her. 36 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 1: I think it's going to be two. I think there 37 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 1: will be two Republicans that end up voting for her. 38 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 1: What about you, I'll go for you think four. Yeah, yeah, 39 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 1: you know, I do think that the drama that there 40 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,800 Speaker 1: will be a lot of attention paid to how quote 41 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 1: unquote bipartisan the voting is. But once Mansion came out 42 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 1: and said and we talked about this, Buck, I mean, 43 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: there was maybe a small chance that he could use 44 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 1: this as an opportunity to announce effectively that he's becoming 45 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: a Republican. But these are the consequences and I think 46 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: they're fairly significant of the runoff elections in Georgia because 47 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: Judge Bryer would not have stepped down if Republicans had 48 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 1: control of the Senate. I really don't believe that he 49 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: would have and there wouldn't have been any sort of 50 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,919 Speaker 1: massive pressure campaign on him to step down, meaning that 51 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 1: you would continue at six to three. But with an 52 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,640 Speaker 1: eighty plus year old and Buck, if you look, I 53 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: mean positive news. Clarence Thomas came out of the hospital today. 54 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 1: He's been released. He's back home, hopefully back to being 55 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,800 Speaker 1: normal and recovering. But when you've got people over the 56 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 1: age of seventy who are on the Supreme Court, as 57 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: we saw with Anthony and Scalia. At any point, that's 58 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 1: how life works. You might have an unexpected death, and that, 59 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 1: by the way, could happen in the Senate as well, 60 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: where you have a lot of older individuals politicians who 61 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: are representing the Republicans and the Democrats. So I also 62 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 1: think the Republicans are not scared of the Democrats the 63 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 1: way that we might have anticipated in terms of the 64 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 1: backlash against going after Tomji Brown Jackson. I think one 65 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 1: of the big takeaways from this whole week of the 66 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: Confirmation hearings is that if the Democrats weren't in a 67 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 1: place where they're writing think pieces and they are right now, 68 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 1: how their side is making it too easy. This was 69 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 1: in the New York Times too easy for Republicans to 70 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: just gain ground with independence, to gain ground not just 71 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: with the Republican base, but with people who will be 72 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 1: determining factors in the next midterm, in the midterm election 73 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 1: and then of course going forward to the presidential election 74 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 1: after that. They're making it easy in the sense that 75 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:25,280 Speaker 1: they're failing on so many levels. Their poll numbers are terrible. 76 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 1: Biden looks like an absurdity with each passing day, more 77 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 1: like an absurdity with each passing day, and so the 78 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: usual oh, I can't ask tough questions of this the 79 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 1: first soon to be I think the first black female 80 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 1: Supreme Court justice. Republicans were not actually scared to ask questions, 81 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 1: even at the expense of being called unfairly racist by 82 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,600 Speaker 1: the Democrat media or sex or both, obviously, and I 83 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:56,839 Speaker 1: think that's just indicative of they aren't really worried about 84 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: where the Democrat Party is at right now. They don't 85 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: feel like people that are persuadable will see asking real 86 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 1: questions and being willing to push back a bit on 87 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: what was supposed to be just a glide through process 88 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: here of a confirmation GOP is feeling like they can 89 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: actually push a bit, and I think it was. It was. Honestly, 90 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:19,599 Speaker 1: it was more than I expected to see this week. 91 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 1: It was on a number of levels. It was obviously 92 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 1: the Marsha Blackburn question over what is a woman? Speaking 93 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 1: of think pieces, I said this to you, do you 94 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:32,480 Speaker 1: see now this is USA today think piece as much 95 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 1: as you could call it that, and it's amazing health 96 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:40,279 Speaker 1: and wellness under USA today. Marsha Blackburn asked Katangi Brown 97 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 1: Jackson to define woman. Science says there's no simple answer. Yeah, okay, 98 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: I'm gonna disagree. With that opinion piece. I do think 99 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: you're right, and and I think this is consequential. Once 100 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 1: you acknowledge that you're one hundred percent not going to 101 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 1: get it honest treatment from the media, I think that's 102 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: liberating in some way to say exactly what you think 103 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,840 Speaker 1: as a politician, because when you know that the Wall, sorry, 104 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 1: the Washington Post editorial board, is going to come out 105 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 1: and say Judge Kaitanji Brown Jackson was treated worse than 106 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 1: Judge Brett Kavanaugh in the hearings, there's no point of 107 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 1: even arguing otherwise. This is an unpersuadable, dogmatic propagandist organization 108 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 1: that has been created. And I do think that's an 109 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 1: important point because so many people are so afraid of Twitter, 110 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: and they're so afraid and worried about whether they're liked 111 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 1: or not, that it leads to even for politicians, certainly 112 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,920 Speaker 1: for high powered executives and people in positions of power, 113 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,280 Speaker 1: many people are afraid to say what they actually think 114 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,720 Speaker 1: for fear of what the reaction will be. And the 115 00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 1: media has so given up any notions of fair play 116 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 1: that I don't think Republicans fear what the Washington Post 117 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:06,840 Speaker 1: is going to say or what the New York Times 118 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 1: is going to say, And in many ways they recognize 119 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 1: that those attacks that they're going to get for doing 120 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: their jobs just serves to further buttress the overall support 121 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: that is out there. That's why I always say, Buck, 122 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 1: I don't care if people come after us for things 123 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 1: that we say on the show, because the people who 124 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: attack us just make the people who like us like 125 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 1: us more. And that is the world that we're in now. 126 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: I also think that the base of the Republican Party. 127 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 1: I have a number of people that are friends of 128 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 1: mine who are very much I think, in line with 129 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 1: the base, and they'll often send something to be in say, 130 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: what's the point of the GOP. That's the line of frustration. 131 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 1: They why do we even do this? If they will 132 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 1: cave on the following why I feel like this week 133 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 1: the GOP decided all right, they have the votes. But 134 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 1: we know what the Democrats would do. They would make 135 00:07:56,480 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: this a real confirmation process. They would ask questions that 136 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 1: might rattle this soon to be a Supreme Court nominee 137 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 1: and would at least show the public that you do 138 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 1: have As Tom Cotton pointed out, by the way, a 139 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 1: far left activist that's actually what he said. Senator Tom 140 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 1: Cotton decided that he was just going to say it. Clay, 141 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 1: he didn't he didn't care that, you know, the media 142 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 1: would attack him. I do think Republicans will be united 143 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 1: in opposition. I would imagine there are some Democrats who 144 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: are very concerned about her and giving a three month 145 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 1: sentence to a convicted child sex predator who had dozens 146 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 1: of graphic images on his computer, and then six years 147 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 1: later he comes back in front of her again and 148 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: she gives him six months in a halfway house. There's 149 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 1: also the fact that she says she can't define what 150 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 1: a woman is, or she blatantly disregarded immigration law to 151 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: try to stop President Trump from enforcing our border. She's 152 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 1: a far less left activist, she always has been. I 153 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 1: think it's good that the American people know something about 154 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 1: who the Supreme Court justice is, other than some of 155 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: the you know, the obvious characteristics and background and resume, 156 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 1: which is, you know, how Biden picked in the first place. 157 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 1: I think also buck the accusations of racism and sexism 158 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:19,840 Speaker 1: don't land anymore, because when you brand everything as racist 159 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 1: and sexist, it doesn't work. And let's be honest, if 160 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,680 Speaker 1: you really want to talk about direct racism, Joe Biden 161 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:30,560 Speaker 1: saying I'm picking a black woman and specifying during the 162 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 1: political campaign that he was going to pick a black woman, 163 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 1: thereby eliminating ninety four percent of the American population from 164 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 1: consideration for this particular job, is the very foundation of racism. 165 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 1: And you're making a choice entirely based on race, which 166 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 1: is his essence racism, and the American public disagreed, I believe, 167 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 1: and I think this deserved to be even argued, even 168 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 1: more maybe than the Republicans did. That takes away from 169 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 1: the legitimacy of Katanji Brown Jackson's ultimate appointment to the 170 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,199 Speaker 1: Spring Court, because if Joe Biden had done what Donald 171 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 1: Trump did and put out a list of twenty judges 172 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 1: that he was considering and said, these people are all 173 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 1: worthy of the Supreme Court, I'm going to pick someone 174 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 1: off of this list, and then he had picked Katanji 175 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 1: Brown Jackson as one of those twenty, people wouldn't say 176 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,319 Speaker 1: the only reason you picked her is because she's a 177 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 1: woman and she's black. But when you said I'm gonna 178 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:30,319 Speaker 1: put a black woman on, you automatically undercut the legitimacy 179 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:32,679 Speaker 1: of your own choice. And there's a reason he did this. 180 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,319 Speaker 1: It was because that's what was best for Joe Biden, 181 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 1: because he was trying to get help from the African 182 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 1: American community during the primary, so he made it, you know, 183 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 1: from Democrat voters. He made it an explicit quid pro quo, essentially, 184 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 1: you know, hey, i'll do this, give me more votes. 185 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 1: And also wanted to make it clear that he is 186 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:56,319 Speaker 1: taking credit for this in advance of doing it right. 187 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 1: So it was if you just did it, Clay, then afterward, 188 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, of course you gotta. Well, I'm the 189 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 1: president who appointed the first black female Supreme Court justice. 190 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 1: But the whole time it's been, oh, we know, we 191 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 1: can count on Joe because the moment that, you know, 192 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 1: he gets the opportunity, so he wanted to cash in 193 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 1: on it early. It was all about what was best 194 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:15,679 Speaker 1: for Joe Biden. It's the point because if it was, 195 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 1: if it was what was best for not just the process, 196 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 1: but also honestly for Katangie Brown Jackson, he would have 197 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,680 Speaker 1: done exactly what you said, lay out who he thinks 198 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 1: the varsity twenty mins, so to speak, and then pick 199 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:29,200 Speaker 1: the All Star you know, then pick the person that 200 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 1: he thinks is the best. Instead, he narrowed it down 201 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: to I think we've done the math with three percent 202 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 1: of the population overall, not even the legal profession, six 203 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 1: percent of the overall population or black women, and then Buck, 204 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 1: I think it's one point eight percent of attorneys or 205 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: black women. So meaning you know, I'm doing live math 206 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 1: on the air, which everybody knows. That's after ninety eight 207 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 1: point two percent of all attorneys were not considered for 208 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:57,559 Speaker 1: this seat, and which is pretty wild to think about. 209 00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,320 Speaker 1: I mean, and look, I mean that's self evident because 210 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:04,680 Speaker 1: he only had three or four people to even interview, right, 211 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 1: there are only three or four people who were judges 212 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 1: that were on the level that could even be considered 213 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:12,439 Speaker 1: for the Supreme Court. Do you agree, by the way 214 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 1: that you think affirmative action as a general this is 215 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: not specifically affirmative action, although there are obviously some discussions 216 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 1: about how it relates to affirmative action. Do you think 217 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 1: that it's going to get struck down? Yes, this US 218 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 1: you know, June in the next in the next cycle. 219 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 1: I think it's which will be a fascinating way that 220 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:32,680 Speaker 1: that plays out across the country. Depends on, obviously the 221 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 1: breadth of the decision and whether we're right or not. 222 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 1: But that will be interesting. I think it will. And 223 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 1: then there'll be an immediate attempt from all of these 224 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 1: woke corporations and universities to again define affirmative action effectively 225 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 1: in some way that doesn't quite fit the criteria that 226 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,079 Speaker 1: has been struck down by the Supreme Court. When that's 227 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 1: the reality. I remember when I was an undergraded amorous college, 228 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 1: the president of the school at the time held a 229 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 1: forum and he properly named. His name was, last name 230 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 1: was Marx. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, it was well well named. 231 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 1: So he held a forum on affirmative action, and he 232 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,559 Speaker 1: let the student body know this was a gretter view 233 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:12,960 Speaker 1: Bollinger when when it looked like the first time around 234 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 1: it might he said, basically, don't worry. Whatever the Supreme 235 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 1: Court does, we're still going to give certain minorities benefits 236 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,080 Speaker 1: in the application process and just find a way to 237 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 1: cover it up. He was open. He was pretty open 238 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 1: at the time. I think that's likely too likely to 239 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: occur no matter what, even if the Supreme Court strikes 240 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:33,319 Speaker 1: it down. Now, it'd be fun to say, it'd be 241 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: fun to be like, it's illegal everybody to do this stuff. 242 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 1: And by the way, vast majorities of people of all 243 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,880 Speaker 1: different races now disagree with the concept of affirmative action 244 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 1: as the way it's being implemented today. So this is 245 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 1: not something that is popular in any way. But big picture, 246 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:54,080 Speaker 1: as we roll into the weekend after the biggest, i 247 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 1: would say, most significant news coming out of Washington in 248 00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 1: terms of political news, Katangi Brown Jackson is going to 249 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 1: be elevated to the Spring Court early in April. She'll 250 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,600 Speaker 1: be confirmed, and then she'll take over when Justice Briar 251 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: steps down. More left wing than Soda mayor from the 252 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 1: bench or about the same, I don't know. I mean, honestly, 253 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 1: this is one of those things where she's been such 254 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 1: a stealth candidate it's hard to even get a great 255 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 1: read on what her opinions are going to be. Certainly 256 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 1: more left wing than Brier, who could be at times 257 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 1: very conciliatory in terms of the way that he that 258 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 1: he felt his job as a justice existed. I mean, 259 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: Brier was at least cognizant in some way of business. 260 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 1: I don't think it Tianji Brown Jackson will I think 261 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 1: she'll be. I think she'll won't be as left wing 262 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 1: as Soda Mayor. I think she'll be somewhere somewhere to 263 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 1: the left, a side of Mayor closer to Kagan. I mean, 264 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: the old Left believed in using the system to achieve 265 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 1: power and use power through the system. The new Left 266 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 1: just power whatever you guys, whatever whatever end state you want, 267 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 1: whatever situation could get you there. That's the way it goes. 268 00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 1: As if the law the law is just kind of 269 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 1: an impediment Black Rifle Coffee.

Oh and in case that's not enough, now 299 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 1: you also have to consider let's let's remember what we 300 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 1: were promised here, let's remember what Joe Biden came into 301 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 1: office saying he would he would get, he would do, 302 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 1: and where we are now and yesterday just kind of 303 00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 1: throw in the mix. You know, folks, probably going to 304 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 1: be worldwide food shortages. Oh I'm serious with regard to 305 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:07,639 Speaker 1: food shortage. Yes, we did so, I'll talk about food shortages. 306 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,200 Speaker 1: And it's going to be real. The price of these sanctions, 307 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 1: it's not just imposed upon Russia, it's imposed upon an 308 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 1: awful lot of countries as well, including European countries in 309 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:23,159 Speaker 1: our country as well. Play food's about to get a 310 00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 1: whole lot more expensive. Russia and Ukraine are enormous exporters 311 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 1: of wheat, and guess where the wheat crop is not 312 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:37,159 Speaker 1: actually being harvested, planted, etc. Obviously, in the midst of 313 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 1: the conflict zone, everything's gonna get more expensive. Food shortages 314 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:45,239 Speaker 1: could get really ugly. Well, And what's difficult about the 315 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:49,120 Speaker 1: what's difficult about the situation what the food shortage is. 316 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: As you well know, Buck, the expectation of food shortages 317 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 1: often can create food shortages. And we saw this happen 318 00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,359 Speaker 1: back in March of twenty twenty when suddenly you couldn't 319 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 1: find toilet paper anywhere, not because there was actually a 320 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 1: toilet paper shortage, but because there was a run on 321 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 1: toilet paper because people were afraid it wasn't going to exist. 322 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,159 Speaker 1: And so there's still some of you out there that 323 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 1: have eight years of toilet paper stacked up in your closets. 324 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 1: People who bought the days felt like they had made 325 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 1: a great investment. There you go, two hundred square feet 326 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:21,920 Speaker 1: of bucks, six hundred square feet apartment just toilet paper. 327 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 1: Still there you go.

Welcome back in Clay, Travis buck Sexton Show. 345 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 1: Appreciate all of you hanging out with us as we 346 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 1: are rolling through the program. Buck, we talked about New 347 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:29,919 Speaker 1: York City starting to get a little bit more sane 348 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,520 Speaker 1: in terms of the rules that they are putting in place. 349 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 1: One of New York City's most famous residents, however, relating 350 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 1: to COVID, that is the rules that they're changing. Howard 351 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:45,200 Speaker 1: Stern is furious and I just can't get over the 352 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:49,119 Speaker 1: fact that Howard Stern, who is one of the most 353 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 1: rebellious radio people of all time. And for those of 354 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,399 Speaker 1: you out there listening, I think it's fair to say 355 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:59,639 Speaker 1: that Russia Limbaugh and Howard Stern are the two most 356 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 1: iconic radio people by far in the last fifty years. Buck, 357 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't even know who else would be 358 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 1: in that category alongside of those two guys. And we're 359 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:14,880 Speaker 1: obviously honored to be sitting in the chair alongside where 360 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 1: Rush and talking to all of you where many of 361 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,320 Speaker 1: you have spent decades listening to him, but a lot 362 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 1: of people have also spent decades listening to Howard Stern. 363 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:26,919 Speaker 1: And of anyone in the media, I'm not sure that 364 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 1: anyone is crazier buck than Howard Stern. Here he is 365 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:35,360 Speaker 1: on his show complaining about the mask mandate being lifted 366 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 1: in New York City and saying, the wackos are winning. 367 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 1: Listen to this and you get all these wackos with 368 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:46,400 Speaker 1: their anti mask, anti baccine. The reason they've lifted these 369 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 1: mask mandates is because we gave into this small minority 370 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 1: of people who are completely out of their mind, who 371 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 1: think masks are some sort of prison sentence and their 372 00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 1: freedom right. The government is tired of fighting with people 373 00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 1: who want to get sick and not. Yeah, there's so 374 00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 1: many whackos. Yeah, I missed the old Republican party. He 375 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 1: used to be nice to have a two party system. 376 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:10,919 Speaker 1: Now it's wackos versus you know, democrats. He sounds like 377 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 1: a neurotic, little old cat lady. Honestly, like this is absurd, 378 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: you know. He sounds like someone who's always always calling 379 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 1: the police because a neighbor went by on a skateboard, Like, 380 00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 1: what is he even talking about? Howard Stern is not 381 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:27,119 Speaker 1: an unintelligent person, and he's also not someone who is 382 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:30,400 Speaker 1: opposed to sometimes being on an island with an opinion 383 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:33,440 Speaker 1: that is not shared by the majority of people. I 384 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 1: think it's such a fascinating instructive window into the psychology 385 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 1: of some people, Buck. I know that Stern was a 386 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 1: germophobe and had high levels of anxiety surrounding germs in 387 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:49,919 Speaker 1: general even before COVID, And to your point, Buck, I 388 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:52,359 Speaker 1: believe what we have done is the exact opposite of 389 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:54,959 Speaker 1: what Stern has is arguing here. I think we've allowed 390 00:21:54,960 --> 00:22:00,439 Speaker 1: a small minority of anxiety written germophobes to dictate what 391 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 1: our national policy has been, and those people are so 392 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 1: fear laden that they won't even look at the data 393 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 1: and recognize that mask make no sense. Now, every single 394 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:12,399 Speaker 1: day we gain a few people. And I know we 395 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:15,680 Speaker 1: were talking about off the air the Politico report because 396 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 1: they pulled parents. There's still a lot of parents though, 397 00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:20,119 Speaker 1: that believe that their kids need to be in a 398 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 1: MA mask. So it's multifaceted. The fauciite mask, madness, the core, 399 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 1: the base, the vanguard, the shock, troops of double masking 400 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 1: are people who are truly terrified. And for them, I've 401 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,120 Speaker 1: said for a long time, this is an anxiety. Napkin, 402 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 1: this has become and you've said it's like you have said, 403 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 1: kids with security blankets, right, this is an adult version 404 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 1: of a facial security blankets. I wear my mask, so 405 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,159 Speaker 1: I'm safe somehow, I'm still safe when I pull my 406 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 1: mask down to eat and drink and do other things 407 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: or to fix it or whatever, because the virus goes, 408 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 1: oh hold on, he called the time out, so it's 409 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 1: not going to freely circulate in the air anymore. Never 410 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 1: mind the fact that you actually look at the size 411 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: the microns that represent a virus versus the mesh of 412 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:11,399 Speaker 1: most of the cloth masks that we've been wearing, and 413 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,399 Speaker 1: people have been pointing out from the very beginning, the 414 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:16,920 Speaker 1: virus actually easily passes through both the air passage above 415 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 1: and below the mask, as well as this part of it. 416 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 1: I say, I wasn't even as due in the beginning, 417 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 1: but as well as through some of these masks. So 418 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:28,159 Speaker 1: here you have those people, but you also have the 419 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: political affiliation component of it, Clay, which I think I 420 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 1: think that is that became certainly the bigger aspect of it, 421 00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:38,879 Speaker 1: and now it lingers because there are a lot of 422 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 1: people for whom it's like a it's a symbol of 423 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 1: their adherence to the Democrat norm and of their defiance 424 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:51,159 Speaker 1: of the evil red state trumpers who want them to 425 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 1: be able to breathe there. I mean, think about what 426 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 1: this argument really boils down to you, and I see 427 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:58,119 Speaker 1: it here telling people it's okay, just breathe normally again, 428 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 1: you can do it. It's actually fine. It really makes 429 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:03,640 Speaker 1: no difference. You should just go about your life breathing 430 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,919 Speaker 1: as human beings have for all of human history. And 431 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:09,919 Speaker 1: the Left says, no, that's crazy. I want to be 432 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 1: uncomfortable and breathe through a piece of cloth all day 433 00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:17,160 Speaker 1: because that makes me feel better about myself. Howard Stern's 434 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 1: clearly in that category. He also, to your point, doesn't 435 00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 1: know anything about what the actual data shows, not only 436 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:25,200 Speaker 1: on masking but even on vaccine efficacy and everything else. 437 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,760 Speaker 1: But he doesn't care. And this ties in with the 438 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 1: Politico pole that we were talking about before this show. Sorry, 439 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:35,199 Speaker 1: it's a Harvard poll. I'm reading from the Politico article 440 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:40,360 Speaker 1: about it four in that this is interesting forty percent 441 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:46,360 Speaker 1: of parents of school aged children believe that masking harmed 442 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:50,120 Speaker 1: their children's overall school experience. I can't believe it's only 443 00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:53,119 Speaker 1: forty percent, by the way, But this is the interesting part, Buck, 444 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 1: Only eleven percent said it helped. So if you are 445 00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:00,200 Speaker 1: a parent of a school aged child, and certainly I'm 446 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,879 Speaker 1: in that camp right now, I've got three school aged kids, 447 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 1: I see parents every single day making like a white 448 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 1: bulb moment where they recognize the masking didn't make sense. 449 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:15,200 Speaker 1: And over half nearly half of parents said masks made 450 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:19,200 Speaker 1: no difference. Now that's disappointing that it's only half, basically 451 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 1: a parents saying mask made more no difference. But I 452 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 1: take away when four and ten say it harmed their 453 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:29,200 Speaker 1: kids school experience and only eleven percent said it helped. 454 00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:33,880 Speaker 1: This matters because the fauciites Buck, based on the numbers 455 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 1: going up in Europe, are already starting to make arguments 456 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:40,000 Speaker 1: that they may need to bring back masks on kids 457 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:43,680 Speaker 1: in schools and masks in general. We gotta get those. Well, 458 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 1: what does what does he say to Leonardo DiCaprio and 459 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 1: in Wolf of Wall Street? Those are rookie numbers. We 460 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 1: gotta get those numbers. Numbers. Yeah, we gotta get those numbers. 461 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 1: Matthew McConaughey and leader Garth Gabrio seeing Apparently McConaughey used 462 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 1: to do that just to get himself psyche up before 463 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 1: seeing sometimes and Scorsese saw it him was like, no, 464 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,719 Speaker 1: do that in the scene anyway. So, yeah, those are 465 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,360 Speaker 1: rookie number forty percent say it, Hardenrik kids, No, no, no, 466 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 1: it needs to be eighty percent. It needs to be 467 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:15,879 Speaker 1: only the twenty percent of Waco libs who think that 468 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,240 Speaker 1: we can't define a woman and they should double mask 469 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 1: alone in the shower just to be safe from the virus. 470 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:24,600 Speaker 1: It has to be down to that, that layer, that 471 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 1: sliver of the American electorate before we could actually stop 472 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:31,880 Speaker 1: the pressure campaign here Clay, because they were wrong. They're 473 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 1: wrong all along. You'll notice, does anyone this is interesting? 474 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 1: I was thinking about this the other day. I was 475 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:39,880 Speaker 1: gonna gonna text you this. When was the last time 476 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:41,919 Speaker 1: a blue check came after you on any of this stuff? 477 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 1: I don't remember. Early on, what do you say? I said, 478 00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 1: it's been a while, yea great point. Yeah, early on 479 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,679 Speaker 1: I had blue checks? You know why are you? You 480 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 1: know you don't care if old people die and you're 481 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 1: evil when everything else Because I was saying things like 482 00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 1: maybe lockdowns, which now we see also increased alcoholism deaths 483 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 1: or alcohol related deaths, I should say by twenty five percent, 484 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,439 Speaker 1: tens of thousands of people. I mean mostly you know, 485 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 1: in the in their prime earning and living years you're 486 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:13,960 Speaker 1: raising family, tens of thousands of people dying anyway. Couldn't 487 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 1: talk about that, couldn't talk about the miscancer screenings, couldn't 488 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,479 Speaker 1: talk about any of these things, or you're a bad person. 489 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 1: I haven't had a blue check want to throw down 490 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 1: with me over this stuff in at least three or 491 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 1: four months now at least it is interesting. Buck. I 492 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 1: will say my audience when any of those blue checks 493 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 1: come after me, and I just kind of put it out. 494 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:38,199 Speaker 1: I mean, my audience is one our audience. They're really funny, 495 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 1: but they are also vicious in destroying the mask. The 496 00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 1: mask paparazzi out there. Who are the blue checks who 497 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:47,440 Speaker 1: come after you all the time, And so I think 498 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:49,920 Speaker 1: a lot of those guys are scared. I think that, 499 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 1: you know, one of the great lessons that you learn 500 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:55,600 Speaker 1: is that Twitter gives these blue checks to anybody, and 501 00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 1: a lot of those guys and girls don't have an audience, 502 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 1: and so they just run around pop off all day 503 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:04,639 Speaker 1: and there's nobody actually that supports anything that they're saying. 504 00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:07,439 Speaker 1: And then they step into the into the dojo, so 505 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 1: to speak, into the thunderdome, and they were not anticipating 506 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:14,159 Speaker 1: the blowback that they get. So I appreciate all of 507 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 1: you who've got buck and minds back at Clay Travis, 508 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,440 Speaker 1: at Buck Sexton out there for the arguments that we're making. 509 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 1: I thought, Buck, that yesterday's conversation about Leah Thomas in 510 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,479 Speaker 1: the locker room and the male genitalia and all that stuff, 511 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:30,880 Speaker 1: I thought somebody would step up and try to fight 512 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 1: over that. Zero not one person is even still trying 513 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 1: to defend that Leah Thomas story, even when we're aggressively 514 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:41,560 Speaker 1: pointing out the locker room ask I got dragged more 515 00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,320 Speaker 1: aggressively on and for those let's say, I know he's like, 516 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:46,280 Speaker 1: I'm you're not on Twitter, But I just mean this 517 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:49,560 Speaker 1: as as a gauge of sentiment on the left and 518 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: what the left democrat a line media is thinking at 519 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 1: any given time. Twitter is a good ecosystem of that, 520 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 1: meaning that you get a really good sense of what 521 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 1: the New York Times that are oyal board and CNN 522 00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 1: producers and all the rest. If you spend enough time 523 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 1: on Twitter, you really know what they think. And I 524 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 1: have never had as many people come after me. Actually 525 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,320 Speaker 1: that's not the only thing comes close was the Brett 526 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:14,440 Speaker 1: Kavanaugh stuff, because I was like, yeah, she's lying. Yeah. 527 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 1: I had CNN people sending me personal messages text masters 528 00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 1: being like, you're destroying your career. And I cannot say 529 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 1: what I said back to them on the air because 530 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 1: that would be an FCC violation. But let's just say 531 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 1: bring it was the mentality. But yeah, Clay, I think 532 00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 1: that they've realized now these are arguments that they cannot 533 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 1: win with people equipped with the facts. That's what we 534 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 1: transition to. And they pretend that they don't exist. That's 535 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 1: one of the things that they do. They just pretend 536 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 1: that argument doesn't exist anymore when they realize they're going 537 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,800 Speaker 1: to lose it. Look, everybody is trying to save money 538 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 1: right now because we got inflation that is all the 539 00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:50,280 Speaker 1: way out to probably double digits. Frankly, we know we're 540 00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 1: setting forty year highs for inflation that continues to soar, 541 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 1: and you're all trying to save money. What about your 542 00:29:56,680 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 1: cell phone bill?

Pure Talk is simply smarter wireless Clay 557 00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 1: Travis and Buck Sexton voices of Sanity and Insane World. 558 00:30:55,880 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 1: The President believes that sanctions are intended to deter hope 559 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 1: that they would have a deterrent to fifth. The purpose 560 00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:05,240 Speaker 1: of the sanctions in the first instance is to try 561 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 1: to deter Russia from going to war. The purpose of 562 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:12,000 Speaker 1: the sanctions has always been and continues to be deterrence. Yes, 563 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 1: our intention is to have a detern effect. Their intention 564 00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 1: is to have a deterrent effect. That's what the sanctions 565 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 1: are for. Welcome back to Clay and Buck. I just 566 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 1: wanted you to hear that you probably recognize some of 567 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 1: those voices. You got Saki Bomb and the National Security 568 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 1: Advisor Jake Sullivan, who really I don't know how that 569 00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 1: guy became, but you know he was a big Russia 570 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 1: collusion truther. So that's really all you need for a 571 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 1: job in the Biden administration. But you heard them all 572 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 1: saying it it's about deterrence. Now, that's just interesting because 573 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 1: while this war is raging in ukrame we're gonna have 574 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:52,040 Speaker 1: Jim Carafano. He's a Army veteran and a Heritage Foundation 575 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 1: national security expert and friend of mine. Great guy. They'll 576 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 1: be joining Clay and me here in a few minutes 577 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,400 Speaker 1: and just talk about where we are with this whole conflict. 578 00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 1: Just update you, right, we got the biggest or in 579 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,239 Speaker 1: Europe since World War Two. It's important what's going on. 580 00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 1: We got Biden talking about food shortages. This never should 581 00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:08,200 Speaker 1: have happened. We never should have been in a position 582 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:11,480 Speaker 1: to even have to deal with this conflagration if it 583 00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 1: had been prevented, Right, that's the best. And they said 584 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 1: sanctions were supposed to do it. And then Biden said, 585 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:21,440 Speaker 1: just last night, this this gets something strade. You remember, 586 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 1: if you covered me from the very beginning, I did 587 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:27,480 Speaker 1: not say that, in fact, the sanctions would deter him. 588 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:33,680 Speaker 1: Sanctions never deter You keep talking about that, sanctions never 589 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 1: deter you know, Clay, I think that the reason we 590 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 1: keep talking about sanctions as a deterrent is because in 591 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:43,880 Speaker 1: the weeks leading up to the conflict, they kept saying, 592 00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 1: these sanctions are a deterrent. Yeah. And it's just it's 593 00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:56,000 Speaker 1: amazing how quickly people are allowed to move on from 594 00:32:56,480 --> 00:33:00,560 Speaker 1: whatever they've argued, as if they never argued it before. 595 00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 1: Let me give you an example right now. I'm gonna 596 00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:04,680 Speaker 1: talk about this. I think to start off later in 597 00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 1: the show. One of the hours buck this Jenny Thomas discussion. 598 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:10,480 Speaker 1: Have you paid attention to everything? So we're going to 599 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 1: dive into this. Sure? Yes, So Jenny Thomas married to 600 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:22,360 Speaker 1: Clarence Thomas. Her actions as a married woman being affiliated 601 00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 1: with Clarence Thomas are a huge story, right, now front 602 00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 1: page news, lead stories everywhere, even though she's acknowledged a 603 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 1: conservative and has big relationships in DC. Nothing that has 604 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:37,680 Speaker 1: been attributed to Jenny Thomas. They had a New York 605 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,960 Speaker 1: Times magazine piece on her. Nothing that has been attributed 606 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 1: to her has surprised me because she's pretty transparent and 607 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:47,960 Speaker 1: straightforward about what she believes publicly and privately. Yet we 608 00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 1: are being told right now, Buck that everything surrounding Jenny 609 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:54,640 Speaker 1: Thomas is a massive news story that needs to be 610 00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:58,920 Speaker 1: covered based on her proximity to Clarence Thomas, while simultaneously 611 00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:02,760 Speaker 1: people are waiving their arms and saying nothing matters about 612 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:07,280 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden because he's a private citizen, we shouldn't be 613 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:11,560 Speaker 1: concerned at all about anything related to him. So I'm 614 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:15,440 Speaker 1: just kind of fascinated by the dynamic in which you 615 00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:19,280 Speaker 1: could wave off any responsibility or discussion in any way 616 00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:22,399 Speaker 1: surrounding Hunter Biden by saying, well, he's the president's son, 617 00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:25,360 Speaker 1: he's not an elected official. Why does it matter. Yet 618 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:28,480 Speaker 1: for Jenny Thomas, everything that she does has to be 619 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:32,280 Speaker 1: immediately attributed to Clarence Thomas, and it's some existential threat 620 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:36,600 Speaker 1: to American democracy, all true? I would also add, then, 621 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:41,399 Speaker 1: For me, the bigger concern play is that this committee 622 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:46,360 Speaker 1: that is looking into the insurrection is using police state tactics. 623 00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:50,719 Speaker 1: I mean they're pulling the phone records of private citizens 624 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 1: and then leaking them to talk about this a while, 625 00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:57,719 Speaker 1: humiliate people. And it's not the first time they've done it, right, 626 00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:00,400 Speaker 1: But let's just understand this is how and you know, 627 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:02,319 Speaker 1: we might return to this. I was gonna we're gonna 628 00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:04,480 Speaker 1: hold this one for later, but we're getting into it now. 629 00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:06,719 Speaker 1: It's gonna take some calls. We'll take some calls in 630 00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:10,839 Speaker 1: a little bit, folks. They have decided that they will 631 00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:15,279 Speaker 1: go scorched earth on this January sixth thing. They'll say 632 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:18,520 Speaker 1: it's insurrection. And this is how the left plays the game. 633 00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 1: They will humiliate your wife if they don't like your politics, 634 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,480 Speaker 1: and you're a judge, you're a member. They don't care, 635 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:28,040 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. This is just about humiliation play. There's 636 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:31,759 Speaker 1: no legal or there's no legal or ethical anything having 637 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 1: to do with Jenny Thomas sending text messages as a 638 00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:37,360 Speaker 1: private citizen to Mark Meadows saying I think the election 639 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:39,799 Speaker 1: was stolen. A lot of people thought that a lot 640 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 1: of people listening to the show still think and thought 641 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:44,480 Speaker 1: that right, that's there's no problem. It's called America. You're 642 00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 1: allowed to think what you want about a very contested 643 00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:49,839 Speaker 1: and shady election. But they just want to humiliate her. 644 00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 1: That's the point. It's about the humiliation because that's how 645 00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:54,959 Speaker 1: they play the game. But here's what I'll say, Buck, 646 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:58,280 Speaker 1: I don't even think it's very humiliating. Usually humiliation occurs, 647 00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 1: at least in my experience, when something that is otherwise 648 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 1: not public about you becomes public that you wish was 649 00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:10,440 Speaker 1: not public. Jenny Thomas's political views are not in some 650 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:14,359 Speaker 1: way a secret. The idea that she would believe that 651 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:16,640 Speaker 1: there was a rig job going on with the twenty 652 00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:20,279 Speaker 1: twenty election, yeah, one hundred percent would expect that that 653 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:22,759 Speaker 1: is what she would believe. And the text that she 654 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:25,960 Speaker 1: is sending are exactly the text that I would expect 655 00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:28,279 Speaker 1: for her to be sending to people at the White House. Like, 656 00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 1: I don't understand how this is in any way newsworthy 657 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 1: or surprise. There's always a sense of violation when you're 658 00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:38,040 Speaker 1: a private text to somebody as an individual become a 659 00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:40,840 Speaker 1: front page story at the Washington Post because the Democrats 660 00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:43,800 Speaker 1: want to pretend it's about the sanctity of our elections. 661 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:48,040 Speaker 1: But when the story is telling something different publicly than 662 00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:50,840 Speaker 1: it would be privately, to me, I'm like, well, this sucks. 663 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:53,799 Speaker 1: It's it's it's a disgrace that private text messages ever 664 00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:56,840 Speaker 1: get leaked, in my opinion. But when they just further 665 00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:00,120 Speaker 1: she was keeping today but you already believed, it's like, well, 666 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:03,080 Speaker 1: that person's an honest, transparent figure. They're not pretending to 667 00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:05,400 Speaker 1: be something that they're not. Yeah, I mean everything immediately 668 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:07,480 Speaker 1: comes to mind if they saw my text message. Just 669 00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:09,239 Speaker 1: to Clay in the show team here, it's everything I 670 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:11,359 Speaker 1: say on the air plus some four letter words. I mean, 671 00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:14,319 Speaker 1: it's exactly that's right, that's the same thing, the same thing. 672 00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:16,960 Speaker 1: By the way, for our off air conversations, they wouldn't 673 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:18,840 Speaker 1: sound that much different than our off air con for 674 00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:25,239 Speaker 1: a little more spicy sometimes, yes, Fleet Travis and Buck 675 00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:28,520 Speaker 1: Sexton on the front lines of truth.
