1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:05,040
Speaker 1: Welcome in Friday edition Klay Travis buck Sexton show. Let's

2
00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:09,159
Speaker 1: have some fun. We're stacking wins in every direction. It

3
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:14,640
Speaker 1: is the three year anniversary of the Mara a Lago raid,

4
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:19,800
Speaker 1: for those of you who remember that day. I don't

5
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:23,040
Speaker 1: think it's consequential that we have some breaking news today

6
00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:26,520
Speaker 1: on Department of Justice investigations. We are going to talk

7
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:30,280
Speaker 1: about that and how all of these things rolled together.

8
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,559
Speaker 1: We got a couple of really interesting guests. Grant Napier

9
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:38,559
Speaker 1: for those of you out in the Sacramento area. Grant

10
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 1: was the play by play voice of the Sacramento Kings,

11
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 1: the NBA franchise out there. They fired him during the

12
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:51,840
Speaker 1: days of BLM for simply tweeting All Lives Matter. It's

13
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 1: one of the most ridiculous cancelations that happened in a

14
00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 1: several year span filled with many different ridiculous cancelations. Good

15
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:04,240
Speaker 1: news he has got a new job. But I do

16
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 1: think that story is important to reflect upon, and I

17
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:10,560
Speaker 1: think you will like the direction that Ed has taken

18
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 1: as a redemptive arc. We'll talk about that a little

19
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:15,479
Speaker 1: bit in the second hour. He is set to join

20
00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 1: us in the third hour. The sort of Hollywood woke

21
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 1: industrial complex is collapsing, and that's occurring even in superhero movies,

22
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 1: which used to be the flourishing elements of the Hollywood

23
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,320
Speaker 1: establishment that was what made all their money. What's going

24
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:40,119
Speaker 1: on there? Ian Miller has got an interesting piece about

25
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 1: the finances behind big Hollywood failures even in superhero movies,

26
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 1: and I thought that was kind of a fun Friday

27
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 1: right before we head out about two thirty near the

28
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 1: end of the show. The culture here is paramount, and

29
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 1: I think what we're seeing is so many different culture wins,

30
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 1: and much of what happened over what I would say

31
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 1: the woke era of the last decade that started. My

32
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,960
Speaker 1: big theory here is this started all around the time

33
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,959
Speaker 1: that social media took off and that suddenly everybody had

34
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 1: instantaneous news and video on their phones. I think it

35
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 1: drove the entire country crazy. And I think there is

36
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 1: more and more of an acknowledgment of this across the

37
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: political spectrum, particularly as it pertains to young people, where

38
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:35,519
Speaker 1: basically every school in America is suddenly circling around and saying, boy,

39
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,359
Speaker 1: it was crazy that we were letting kids sit around

40
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:43,079
Speaker 1: in classrooms on social media, texting all day long, and

41
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: I really think that there is going to be an

42
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 1: examination of the social media just sort of induction into

43
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:57,079
Speaker 1: this country and all of the toxicity that it unleashed

44
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,679
Speaker 1: and all of the falsehoods that it allowed to be

45
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 1: embedded in the United States, in particular because the algorithms

46
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:10,919
Speaker 1: being run out of Silicon Valley were so far left

47
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 1: wing that suddenly Americans thought the entire country was like

48
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 1: the faculty lounge of a Portland area college. And I

49
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 1: think what you've seen is a mass rejection of the

50
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,360
Speaker 1: insanity and a return in many ways to common sense.

51
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 1: And so I'm going to break all this down. We

52
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,520
Speaker 1: got a lot of fun scheduled for you during the

53
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 1: course of the show. Buck is in the mountains I

54
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 1: believe of North Carolina, not Ashville, but somewhere in the

55
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 1: vicinity of Ashville, and he texted this morning that he

56
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 1: is meeting many of our listeners there and that he

57
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 1: is in a very pro Clay and Buck community. I

58
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 1: think Buck is still scarred from living in New York City.

59
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 1: Producer Ali will remember this when I took him to

60
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 1: the old Miss Alabama game and he had never been

61
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 1: to a college football game as a kid. You know

62
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 1: grew up in New York City. He's always basically under

63
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 1: siege as a New York City Conservative, as a New

64
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 1: York City Republican voter. And I think he's still a

65
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 1: little bit in shock by how nice other parts of

66
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 1: the country are to him. I don't know if anybody

67
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 1: else gets that sent since, but Ali, do you remember

68
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 1: how Buck just couldn't believe how incredibly nice everybody was.

69
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 1: He'd never been to the state of Alabama before, he'd

70
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 1: never been to a college football game. And everywhere we went,

71
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 1: people coming up to us, big fans of the show,

72
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 1: big fans of the fact that he was visiting and

73
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: going to his first college football game. And I was like,

74
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,599
Speaker 1: a whole different university he had never seen before. And

75
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:45,479
Speaker 1: I know you live in New York City too, but

76
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:47,359
Speaker 1: did you get that sense? And he still is. He

77
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,159
Speaker 1: goes around to these other parts of the country, he's like, man,

78
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 1: you know, people really are nice outside of New York City.

79
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 1: When it comes to Bud being punked at first, he

80
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 1: was like, I could get used to this. Yes, yes,

81
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:04,720
Speaker 1: it is like when you actually get outside of New

82
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 1: York in LA And I know we got a lot

83
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 1: of listeners in New York and LA. But this is

84
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 1: why to me, college football fans are the backbone of

85
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:19,120
Speaker 1: American extraordinary awesomeness. And so I trust you, even if

86
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:23,040
Speaker 1: you happen to have the gall or absolute ridiculousness to

87
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,720
Speaker 1: vote for teams that they're playing against my University of Tennessee.

88
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 1: Buck is in the Highlands. I think that's a broad area.

89
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:34,679
Speaker 1: I always hate to say for specific you know, vacation time.

90
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 1: Oh he's this exact location or whatever, but that is

91
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 1: where he is, and he says everybody is fabulous to him.

92
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: So if you happen to be in that area, you

93
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 1: might well see Buck walking around with with his wife

94
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,039
Speaker 1: and their little baby. So he is out. He will

95
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 1: be back on Monday. But I wanted to dive into

96
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 1: this three year anniversary of the raid on mar A Lago.

97
00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 1: And it is not coincidental that as I sit down

98
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 1: to talk to all of you Fox News first on Fox,

99
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 1: I'm reading from their Twitter account. This is fifteen minutes ago.

100
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:11,600
Speaker 1: Attorney General Pam Bondi has authorized a special prosecutor, Ed Martin.

101
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 1: And pause here this is the Ed Martin that many

102
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:18,120
Speaker 1: of you will remember we had on this program because

103
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 1: Democrats refused to elevate him to be the US Attorney

104
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 1: for Washington, d C. And so as a result, President

105
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 1: Trump put in place Judge Janine Piro, who is teeming

106
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 1: off left and right over the crime rate in DC.

107
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 1: And we'll talk about that more during the course of

108
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 1: the program. But ed Martin is now in as a

109
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:46,120
Speaker 1: special prosecutor to investigate allegations of mortgage fraud involving Adam Schiff,

110
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 1: Senator from California and Leticia James, the Attorney General of

111
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 1: New York who prosecuted Trump. That is, according to Peter

112
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 1: dou See. Ed Martin was on with US May eighth.

113
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:02,480
Speaker 1: That is an incredible decision and I think will work

114
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:07,200
Speaker 1: out phenomenally well. We also have news that a grand

115
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: jury investigation has also been opened in New York into

116
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 1: Letitia James and her behavior surrounding the decision to come

117
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:23,960
Speaker 1: after Trump for civil forfeiture relating to bank loans and

118
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 1: all of that. I believe she got a verdict of

119
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 1: four hundred and fifty million dollars something in that universe,

120
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 1: So that in and of itself is also turning into

121
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 1: a big story. But I wanted to take us back

122
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: in time a little bit because I believe this is

123
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,760
Speaker 1: when Trump won the Republican nomination for president, and I

124
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 1: think historically this is going to be seen as one

125
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 1: of the biggest own goals, one of the most self

126
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 1: inflicted wounds. I think as soon as Biden and his

127
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 1: Department of Justice decided to try to put Trump in prison,

128
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 1: they actually put Trump back into the White House. I

129
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 1: think it would have been if they had not prosecuted.

130
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 1: I think they would have been in a better position

131
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:12,119
Speaker 1: in the twenty twenty four election. But three days after

132
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,960
Speaker 1: the mar A Lago raid, so this is a flashback.

133
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 1: A couple of days after the raid, Merrick Garland finally

134
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 1: had a press conference and said, this is rating the

135
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 1: former president of the United States is a faithful adherence

136
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 1: to the rule of law, and there is no politics

137
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 1: involved in this at all. Remember, Merrick Garland himself signed

138
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:38,200
Speaker 1: off on an unprecedented raid of the former president's home

139
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 1: at Merrick Mara A Lago. Here's cut one.

140
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 2: Faithful adherence to the rule of law is the bedrock

141
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:48,960
Speaker 2: principle of the Justice Department and of our democracy. Upholding

142
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,840
Speaker 2: the rule of law means applying the law evenly, without

143
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:57,680
Speaker 2: fear or favor, under my watch. That is precisely what

144
00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 2: the Justice Department is doing. There are, however, certain points

145
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:06,200
Speaker 2: I want you to know. First, I personally approved the

146
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:10,360
Speaker 2: decision to seek a search warrant in this matter. Second,

147
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 2: the Department does not take such a decision lightly. Where possible.

148
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 2: It is standard practice to seek less intrusive means as

149
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 2: an alternative to a search, and to narrowly scope any

150
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 2: search that is undertaken.

151
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:31,320
Speaker 1: All right, this very interesting in and of itself because

152
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 1: I believe without a doubt, this is what put Trump

153
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 1: into the White House. And I also want to play

154
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 1: a couple of additional cuts that surround this. This was

155
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 1: everyone out there trying to tell you, hey, there's actually

156
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: nothing at all unacceptable about this raid. This is completely

157
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:57,360
Speaker 1: and totally normal. This was again three years ago to

158
00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 1: the date when I believe Trump officially became the nominee.

159
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 1: Here we go with let's see cut three, former at

160
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:11,319
Speaker 1: the Federal Prosecutor Daniel Goodman saying we need to recognize

161
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 1: and praise Merrick Garland for following the rule of law.

162
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 1: Here's cut three.

163
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 3: Barrick Garland, who has said very consistently, much to the

164
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:23,440
Speaker 3: frustration of some on the left, that he is following

165
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,160
Speaker 3: the facts, and he's following the law wherever it goes.

166
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 3: And so he took this action because he had probable

167
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 3: cause to do so. And I'm sure he took this

168
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:37,199
Speaker 3: action because it was a significant and necessary move as

169
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 3: part of this investigation. And if he doesn't take this

170
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 3: action because of the backlash, then it is a political decision.

171
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 3: So we need to recognize and praise Merrick Garland for

172
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:49,800
Speaker 3: following the rule of law.

173
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:54,360
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, I mean now that we know also

174
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 1: just how much of a sham it was we thought

175
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,520
Speaker 1: at the time. Remember they took the photo of the

176
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 1: classified documents on the ground, They even went through Milanya's

177
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:10,200
Speaker 1: underwear drawer. I mean, this was absolutely bonkers. And now

178
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 1: that we have had that case tossed by thankfully the

179
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 1: federal District Court judge in South Florida, a lot of

180
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:20,320
Speaker 1: people forget that case was even tossed in July of

181
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, before Trump even won the election, because

182
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,520
Speaker 1: it was found to be illegitimate. I do think it's

183
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,720
Speaker 1: worthwhile going back and listening to what all of the

184
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 1: talking heads, the left wing loons said, including the now

185
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:38,680
Speaker 1: canceled Stephen Colbert this feels even a little bit more

186
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 1: delicious cut forth, we learned.

187
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,559
Speaker 4: The news of the FBI raid straight from the horse's

188
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:47,200
Speaker 4: ass because the former president posted the news on social media.

189
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 4: These are dark times for our nation, as my beautiful

190
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 4: home mar A Lago and Palm Beach, Florida is currently

191
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:56,080
Speaker 4: under siege, raided and occupied by a large group of

192
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 4: FBI agents. Nothing like this has ever happened to a

193
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:01,080
Speaker 4: president of the US, the United States before.

194
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 1: Well, of course it hasn't.

195
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:07,200
Speaker 4: No president has ever been as criminal as you are.

196
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:12,439
Speaker 1: Isn't it even more delicious that Stephen Colbert is gone

197
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 1: When you listen to a clip like that. He was

198
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 1: trying to tap dance on what he thought was the

199
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 1: political grave of Donald Trump, he told his unfortunate audience,

200
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,600
Speaker 1: and maybe we can grab I don't think this is

201
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:27,959
Speaker 1: in the cuts, guys, but can we grab the audio

202
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 1: I saw Bucker retweet this? Can we grab the audio

203
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:35,640
Speaker 1: of John Oliver being upset at Jay Leno for saying

204
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 1: the job of comedy is to try to talk to

205
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 1: everyone and make fun of a variety of different groups,

206
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,560
Speaker 1: and John Oliver just being like, no, it isn't. My

207
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 1: job is to be a left wing propagandist. It really

208
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:51,440
Speaker 1: is amazing how Trump has broken the brains of so

209
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:54,600
Speaker 1: many people in the comedic universe that I think, without

210
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 1: Trump may well have had much longer careers and certainly

211
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 1: would have had much more successful ones. Away. One of

212
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 1: those guys is Howard Stern. I saw the guy was

213
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,360
Speaker 1: one of the most revolutionary, whatever you think about him,

214
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 1: one of the most revolutionary, aggressive, relentless in his risk taking.

215
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 1: And now he's turned into a complete and total pussy willow.

216
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 1: He's just a shill for Big That interview he did

217
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 1: with Joe Biden actually made me uncomfortably ill trying to

218
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 1: watch it because it was such ridiculous propaganda. But we

219
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 1: will talk about all that more. Plus, Sidney Sweeney is

220
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:38,840
Speaker 1: still in the news. If you're in Las Vegas. American

221
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:43,160
Speaker 1: Eagle not backing down. They put her on that brand

222
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 1: new massive sphere out there in her Genes. New York

223
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 1: Times has a story up about it. They quote me

224
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:52,079
Speaker 1: in it. I mentioned that I had talked to the

225
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 1: New York Times. Go figure. Their article is dishonest. We

226
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 1: will continue to break all that down in the meantime.

227
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,720
Speaker 1: Don't be caught off guard when severe storms are other

228

247
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 1: Welcome Back in Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show. I had

248
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 1: the team pull this. Jay Leno, John Oliver. I was

249
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:19,880
Speaker 1: thinking about it because we played Stephen Colbert exulting for

250
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:23,240
Speaker 1: his audience three years ago over the mar A Lago raid,

251
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:28,160
Speaker 1: and Jay Leno sat down with the Ronald Reagan Institute recently,

252
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:32,880
Speaker 1: and everyone on the left in comedy has been super

253
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 1: frustrated with what he said. But I thought what jay

254
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:40,920
Speaker 1: Leno said was just good basic common sense. And I

255
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:44,680
Speaker 1: think you just contrast what you're hearing from Colbert and

256
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 1: what you're hearing from John Oliver and what you're hearing

257
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 1: from left wing comedy in quotation writers, and listen to

258
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,520
Speaker 1: what jay Leno said and tell me if it isn't

259
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 1: good old fashioned common sense here it is funny?

260
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:03,080
Speaker 6: Is funny? You know, it's funny when someone who is

261
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,240
Speaker 6: not when you make fun of their side and they

262
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 6: laugh at it. I just find getting out. I don't

263
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,520
Speaker 6: think anybody wants to hear a lecture, you know. To me,

264
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,360
Speaker 6: it's just when I was with Rodney, it was Alsoso

265
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 6: the Economy Awards. Get to the joke as quickly as possible.

266
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,240
Speaker 6: Why shoot for just half an audience all that time?

267
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 6: You know, why not try to get the whole of

268
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 6: I mean, I like to bring people into the big picture.

269
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:27,960
Speaker 6: I don't understand why you would alienate one particular group,

270
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,040
Speaker 6: you know, or just don't do it at all. I'm

271
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 6: not saying you have to throw your support or whatever,

272
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 6: but just just do what's funny.

273
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 1: What John Oliver said is comedy can't be for everyone.

274
00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:45,360
Speaker 1: It's inherently subjective. I don't think comedy it's just what

275
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,120
Speaker 1: people want. I think our show clearly comes from a

276
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 1: point of view. Most of these long stories we do

277
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 1: are not party political. They're about systemic issues. I mean,

278
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 1: I'm rolling my eyes at that. The reality is Jay

279
00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 1: Leno is right, ye, And I do think maybe this

280
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,119
Speaker 1: is the next book I need to write. I do

281
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:07,320
Speaker 1: think if you go back and look at everyone that

282
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 1: was culturally ascendant in the eighties and the nineties, whether

283
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 1: it was Michael Jordan in sports, whether it was Jay

284
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:19,200
Speaker 1: Leno in late night television and Johnny Carson before him,

285
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 1: whether it was Bill Cosby. Leave aside the allegations against him,

286
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 1: but in terms of the Cosby Show, all of them,

287
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:32,920
Speaker 1: whether it was Sylvester Stallone or Mel Gibson or Arnold Schwarzenegger,

288
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 1: all of them had one thing in common. They believed

289
00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 1: America was the greatest country in the history of the world.

290
00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 1: I really do think we have a lot of people

291
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 1: of cultural influence now that would argue against that, and

292
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,680
Speaker 1: may well even argue that American history isn't even good

293
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 1: at all. And I think that's one of the inherent

294
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 1: tensions that has been created. Look, we'll talk more about that,

295
00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:59,359
Speaker 1: but in the meantime, you can talk with anybody and

296
00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:01,880
Speaker 1: save a bundle if you got pure talk. Pure talk

297
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:05,199
Speaker 1: has a plan right now that's just as good as

298
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 1: all the big boys. But it can save you one

299
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 1: thousand dollars over the course of the year. How much

300
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,639
Speaker 1: difference would a thousand dollars make for you at the

301
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:15,359
Speaker 1: end of the year, as you get to Thanksgiving, as

302
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 1: you get to Christmas, as you get to New Year,

303
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:20,120
Speaker 1: start recognizing what expenses you got out there for all

304
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:22,399
Speaker 1: the kids and the grandkids, start to think about the

305
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:24,439
Speaker 1: taxes you're going to have to pay in April. It

306
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:26,640
Speaker 1: can save you a bundle right now, and it's really

307
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:28,760
Speaker 1: easy to switch. You can keep your same phone if

308
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:30,720
Speaker 1: you want to, or you can get a new one.

309
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:34,320
Speaker 1: You can also keep your same phone number. It's very simple.

310
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 1: Just one thousand dollars in your pocket. I use pure

311
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:40,199
Speaker 1: Talk to talk to my seventeen year old and my

312
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,040
Speaker 1: fourteen year old. All you have to do is go

313
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 1: right now to your phone, type in pound two five

314
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: zero and say Clay and Buck from the phone that

315
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:53,920
Speaker 1: you have right now Pound two five zero, say Clay

316
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:58,240
Speaker 1: and Buck. Welcome back in Clay, Travis Buck Sexton Show.

317
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:01,160
Speaker 1: Appreciate all of you hanging out with us. We're rolling

318
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 1: through the Friday edition of the program. A lot of

319
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:10,040
Speaker 1: reaction rolling in. But I do think it is not

320
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 1: a coincidence that the Trump administration, on the three year

321
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:16,679
Speaker 1: anniversary of the mar A Lago raid, is upping the

322
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 1: political pressure on all of his opponents. And I think

323
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 1: the people that he is putting in charge of all

324
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:29,600
Speaker 1: of these different investigations are I believe, a really impressive

325
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:33,680
Speaker 1: collection of legal minds. And I think there's a lot

326
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:37,120
Speaker 1: of nervousness that is quietly starting to set in as

327
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:41,960
Speaker 1: these investigations play themselves out again. Grand juris potentially in

328
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 1: New York, Grand Juris potentially in DC, Grand Jury's potentially

329
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:50,280
Speaker 1: in Florida. Now, there are lots of complexities with all

330
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:53,560
Speaker 1: of these cases. So understand that there are statues of

331
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 1: limitation issues that there are questions. Some people have tried

332
00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:01,480
Speaker 1: to say, well, all of Russia is tomorrow Lago, it's

333
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,159
Speaker 1: one grand conspiracy, and I've tried to say, well, I

334
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:07,240
Speaker 1: think that's actually a very difficult legal case to make.

335
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:11,440
Speaker 1: So some of these grand jury investigations may not lead

336
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:16,359
Speaker 1: to indictments. In fact, the jury, especially in places like DC,

337
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:22,160
Speaker 1: which is overwhelmingly Democrat, might actually choose not to indict.

338
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:27,040
Speaker 1: But even then, this is becoming I think a significant

339
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:32,000
Speaker 1: story at a minimum for rectifying the historical record. And

340
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:35,600
Speaker 1: some will say, hey, it's sometimes hard to judge history.

341
00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,560
Speaker 1: In fact, anyone with a functional brain should say this,

342
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:42,600
Speaker 1: it's hard to judge the impact of history when we're

343
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 1: often in the midst of history. And I've told you

344
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:49,119
Speaker 1: guys a lot of times. Boy, I would love to

345
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 1: read books about the twenty twenty four election that will

346
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:57,880
Speaker 1: be written fifty years from now, one hundred years from now,

347
00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:01,520
Speaker 1: after the passions of the moment have faded away, and

348
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,480
Speaker 1: the story itself can just be told to see how

349
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 1: people in the future will view all of this. I

350
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,200
Speaker 1: think that Trump is going to end up being seen

351
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:15,000
Speaker 1: as an incredible heroic figure, and I think his response

352
00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:19,480
Speaker 1: to the shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania on July thirteenth is

353
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:21,639
Speaker 1: going to go down as one of the most iconic,

354
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 1: indestructibly badass, frankly moments in the history of the American presidency.

355
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:32,359
Speaker 1: In the short term, however, people are so fired up

356
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:34,439
Speaker 1: about Trump that they can't take a step back and

357
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:38,400
Speaker 1: think about what that said about America, what his response

358
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 1: said about America. I can guarantee you one hundred years

359
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:44,920
Speaker 1: from now there will be people running for the presidency

360
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:48,920
Speaker 1: of America that will reference Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania as

361
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,600
Speaker 1: a kind of toughness and fortitude that they aspire to

362
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 1: represent in the future in this country. But I think

363
00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:02,880
Speaker 1: you can already start to see that using your power

364
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:08,320
Speaker 1: to try to put your political opponent in prison blew

365
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:11,840
Speaker 1: up in the face of the Democrat Party and actually

366
00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:16,359
Speaker 1: made Trump stronger. What is the lesson going to be

367
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:20,560
Speaker 1: going forward? Well, if Kamala had gotten into office, the

368
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,679
Speaker 1: lesson I think would have been try to put all

369
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:26,679
Speaker 1: of your political opponents in prison for the rest of

370
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:29,640
Speaker 1: your life. And some will say, well, that's what Trump's

371
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:31,600
Speaker 1: trying to do right now, So maybe the lesson didn't

372
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 1: really take I don't think so, because Trump isn't able

373
00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:39,000
Speaker 1: to run for political office again, and right now at

374
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:42,159
Speaker 1: least no one that Trump is focused on is his

375
00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:47,640
Speaker 1: chief political adversary going forward. What Joe Biden did, what

376
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:52,000
Speaker 1: Merrick Garland allowed to happen, is unprecedented in the history

377
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 1: of American politics. Joe Biden knew his chief political adversary

378
00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,399
Speaker 1: was Donald Trump, and he decided the best way for

379
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 1: him to beat Trump was to try to put Trump

380
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:05,800
Speaker 1: in prison. Trump is not doing that. The focus on

381
00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 1: Barack Obama. Barack Obama's political career is over, and we've

382
00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,399
Speaker 1: told you he has presidential immunity, likely because of the

383
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:16,399
Speaker 1: Trump precedents, and therefore Obama is not going to actually

384
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:19,120
Speaker 1: face charges. Some people out there with big shows will

385
00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 1: tell you that he is. They try to get everybody

386
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,040
Speaker 1: riled up. I don't believe that's true. I think the

387
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:27,199
Speaker 1: evidence is virtually certain that Barack Obama will not face charges.

388
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton's political career is over. If she were to

389
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,640
Speaker 1: face some form of charges, that is not ending her

390
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:37,320
Speaker 1: political career. This is very different than what Biden did

391
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:40,040
Speaker 1: and what Merrick Garland did. Now Trump can't run again,

392
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:43,800
Speaker 1: but pretend that by the way. I don't. One of

393
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:46,960
Speaker 1: the challenges is it's hard to even project who the

394
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:51,960
Speaker 1: chief opponent of President Trump would be in twenty twenty eight,

395
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 1: that is, who would the nominee be. But this would

396
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 1: be akin to if Trump were still in his first term,

397
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:04,240
Speaker 1: if he tried to put his chief political opponent in

398
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:06,240
Speaker 1: prison for the rest of his life. That's not what

399
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:09,679
Speaker 1: he's doing. He's investigating what they did to him, and

400
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:12,480
Speaker 1: he's trying to get some form of justice associated with it.

401
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 1: So that is what is underway in the process right

402
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:20,879
Speaker 1: now as we sit here, three years after that Mara

403
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:24,639
Speaker 1: Lago raid. And I believe history is going to show

404
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 1: that Merrick Garland was the worst Attorney general in most

405
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:33,040
Speaker 1: of our lives, That he allowed the Department of Justice

406
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:36,879
Speaker 1: to be taken over by far left wing activists, that

407
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,399
Speaker 1: he didn't have a spine and backbone to stand up

408
00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 1: to them. That Joe Biden either directly led or was

409
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 1: so mentally and physically out of it that he was

410
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 1: unable to really control the direction of his White House

411
00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:56,720
Speaker 1: directly read directly led all of these prosecutions. And I

412
00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:00,360
Speaker 1: believe if Joe Biden were not eighty two years old

413
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 1: or whatever, the heck he is. I think you would

414
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 1: see right now that Joe Biden would be almost assuredly

415
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:12,680
Speaker 1: facing charges for a variety of different crimes. I think, honestly,

416
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:16,200
Speaker 1: have you noticed Trump isn't really focusing on Biden at all.

417
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,479
Speaker 1: I think Trump, deep down feels a little sad for Biden.

418
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,840
Speaker 1: There's not any think about that. There's no all of

419
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,400
Speaker 1: the apparatus that Trump has a raid in his Department

420
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:30,159
Speaker 1: of Justice right now, hardly any of it is directed

421
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:34,200
Speaker 1: at Joe Biden himself. It's all the advisors surrounding Biden.

422
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:37,879
Speaker 1: I think Trump sees Biden frankly as a dementia riddled

423
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:40,920
Speaker 1: old man and feels a little bit sad for him.

424
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 1: And I can't say honestly that it's that much different

425
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 1: the way he responded to Hillary when he came in.

426
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:53,880
Speaker 1: Even Kamala Trump's barely mentioned her. Most of his anger

427
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:58,800
Speaker 1: is directed at Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton still for what

428
00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 1: they did of people want to weigh in. Jerry from

429
00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 1: New York w R Radio. What you got for us,

430
00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:04,879
Speaker 1: Jerry E. E.

431
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 7: Some people forget is when Trump first announced, which is

432
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 7: his run for presidents, almost a decade ago, Helbert had

433
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,320
Speaker 7: him on and loved him, and you know, people like

434
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:18,320
Speaker 7: Morning Joe, you know, shows like Morning Joe couldn't get

435
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:20,280
Speaker 7: enough of him because they figured they'd send him to

436
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:24,000
Speaker 7: the slaughterhouse against against Hillary is the easiest opponent. But

437
00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:26,440
Speaker 7: if you was so corrupt, the fact that they would

438
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 7: promote him makes them the corrupt ones.

439
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, look, I mean we've talked a lot about

440
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:35,120
Speaker 1: this program. They didn't realize what Trump was, or what

441
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:38,359
Speaker 1: I think is his unique political abilities until it was

442
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 1: too late for them. And this is why I've said

443
00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:42,680
Speaker 1: on the show, and I will I will go to

444
00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 1: the mat for it twenty twenty seven, as soon as

445
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,240
Speaker 1: the midterms are over, because you're going to hear a

446
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:51,040
Speaker 1: lot of oh my goodness, we have to win the

447
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:54,560
Speaker 1: House of Representatives because Trump is Adolf Hitler. Trump is

448
00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:58,199
Speaker 1: a dictator. Trump is an authoritarian. We know what the

449
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 1: Democrat message is going to be. They're going to run

450
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:03,560
Speaker 1: it like crazy all the way through twenty twenty six,

451
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 1: and then as soon as the midterms are over, they

452
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:09,800
Speaker 1: may come out and try to impeach Trump, but we

453
00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 1: all know that's just political show. If they win the

454
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 1: House of Representatives, but very quickly in twenty twenty seven,

455
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:20,240
Speaker 1: as all of the Democrats start to announce, and as

456
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,920
Speaker 1: the Republicans that are going to run for president get

457
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:26,160
Speaker 1: prepared to announce, You're going to see a massive pivot

458
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:28,800
Speaker 1: in media. You're going to see it from the Democrat Party.

459
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:31,040
Speaker 1: You're going to see it all start to take place.

460
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,520
Speaker 1: And what they are going to say is something very

461
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 1: different than what they've said for the first twelve years

462
00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 1: of Trump. They are going to say he is one

463
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:43,560
Speaker 1: of the most talented politicians of any of our lives,

464
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:47,080
Speaker 1: and Republicans are never going to be able to replace

465
00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:50,800
Speaker 1: the vote tallies that Trump produced. Some of you think

466
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 1: that I'm crazy on this. I said this on Fox

467
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:56,960
Speaker 1: Business yesterday, I think with Stuart Varney on his show,

468
00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 1: and he thought it was a crazy argument. I'm telling

469
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 1: you you they think it sounds crazy. But they are

470
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,680
Speaker 1: going to pivot almost overnight as soon as the midterms

471
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:10,359
Speaker 1: are over from Trump is Hitler to Republicans are never

472
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:12,520
Speaker 1: going to be able to have as talented as a

473
00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:15,400
Speaker 1: politician as Donald Trump for the rest of their lives.

474
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:17,800
Speaker 1: They're going to say it doesn't work for jd Vance.

475
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,280
Speaker 1: They're going to say it doesn't work for Marco Rubio,

476
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 1: for Ted Cruz, for anybody else that's thinking about running.

477
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 1: They are going to say none of them are going

478
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,639
Speaker 1: to be able to approach Trump's appeal. You're going to

479
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:32,199
Speaker 1: move very quickly from Trump is Hitler to Trump is

480
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,840
Speaker 1: one of the most talented politicians in any of our lives,

481
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,440
Speaker 1: and Republicans are never going to be able to replace him.

482
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:39,720
Speaker 1: I'm just telling you exactly how it's going to go.

483
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,960
Speaker 1: Sometime about May or June of twenty twenty seven, you're

484
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:45,800
Speaker 1: going to look up and you're going to say, holy crap,

485
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:50,200
Speaker 1: Clay was exactly right. They have pivoted overnight from Trump

486
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:52,520
Speaker 1: is an existential threat to our country. He's going to

487
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:56,040
Speaker 1: get us into World War three. He is hitler. He

488
00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:58,920
Speaker 1: hates black people, he hates Hispanic people, he hates Asian people.

489
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:03,720
Speaker 1: To Overnight boy, he's one of the most skilled politicians

490
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:05,719
Speaker 1: we've ever seen. We'll take some of your calls. By

491
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 1: the way, it is Friday, eight hundred two two two

492
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 1: eight eight two. As I said, I really think you're

493
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:12,800
Speaker 1: gonna enjoy this conversation we're going to have at the

494
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,680
Speaker 1: top of the next hour with Grant Napier, who is

495
00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:20,760
Speaker 1: was formerly a basketball announcer fired for simply saying all

496
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 1: lives matter. And I do think that the conversation that

497
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:27,600
Speaker 1: we had yesterday was an interesting one. Think about how

498
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:31,680
Speaker 1: much different all of the BLM era would have been

499
00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:37,560
Speaker 1: if instead of focusing on black lives that were in

500
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:42,200
Speaker 1: some way implicated or taken by police officers. Imagine if

501
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:46,760
Speaker 1: we had actually had all lives protest conversations, all lives

502
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:49,920
Speaker 1: matter protests, because that was considered racist back in twenty

503
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:53,200
Speaker 1: twenty to say all lives matter, it was detracting from

504
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 1: Black lives matter. What isn't it crazy that we had

505
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 1: that entire twenty twenty era. So many people lost their

506
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:09,640
Speaker 1: jobs and the overall violent crime rate skyrocketed. Thousands of

507
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 1: additional people who should be alive today were murdered, most

508
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:16,400
Speaker 1: of them were black, and all of that happened because

509
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,400
Speaker 1: of Black Lives Matter protests. I don't think there is

510
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:21,960
Speaker 1: a single positive that came out of the Black Lives

511
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:25,600
Speaker 1: Matter protest. Even the Black Lives Matter organization itself, which

512
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:29,600
Speaker 1: raised hundreds of millions of dollars, basically squandered all that money.

513
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:33,120
Speaker 1: And imagine if we had a national conversation back in

514
00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:36,959
Speaker 1: twenty twenty if we had just said, hey, let's really

515
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:41,800
Speaker 1: try to address violent crime. Let's try to prove that

516
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:47,600
Speaker 1: all lives matter by having a massive attempt to cut

517
00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 1: the murder rate in half. Do you know who would

518
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,400
Speaker 1: benefit the most by the murder rate being cut in half?

519
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:59,240
Speaker 1: Black people? Yet we didn't have that conversation. Instead, if

520
00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:02,720
Speaker 1: you said all lives matter, let's try to have less death,

521
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:06,480
Speaker 1: Let's try to have less violent crime across the entire

522
00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:11,360
Speaker 1: racial spectrum. Let's have less murder, which I would think

523
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:16,360
Speaker 1: everybody would be in favor of. You got fired. It's

524
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:19,320
Speaker 1: one of the craziest things I've ever heard of, ever seen.

525
00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:24,520
Speaker 1: That is how that is how bonkers the entire country

526
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:29,000
Speaker 1: went in the summer of twenty twenty and one of

527
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:35,720
Speaker 1: the biggest penalty cancelation stories that was out there was

528
00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:39,200
Speaker 1: Grant Napier, who simply was no longer allowed to work

529
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:42,200
Speaker 1: in sports. It's not even like he was a politician

530
00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 1: for simply tweeting all lives matter. That conversation the next hour,

531
00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:49,200
Speaker 1: I think is an important one that we need to

532
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:53,000
Speaker 1: have all of that headed that this direction. But in

533
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:55,200
Speaker 1: the meantime, I want to tell you about my friends

534
00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 1: at Birch gold. You know, I'm a history nerd, and

535
00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:02,800
Speaker 1: all throughout his going back as far as you can

536
00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:07,960
Speaker 1: possibly imagine, there has been a flight to gold, which

537
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:14,280
Speaker 1: is the most durable, most long lasting, most reliable object

538
00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 1: out there when it comes to retaining value. Everyone has

539
00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:22,640
Speaker 1: used gold as a marker when currencies have been wobbly.

540
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:27,479
Speaker 1: Even before currency was very widely distributed, gold was an

541
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:31,040
Speaker 1: asset class that everybody held. And guess what, gold is

542
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:34,320
Speaker 1: setting record highs right now, in the midst of high

543
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,120
Speaker 1: inflation rates in the past, in the midst of high

544
00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:41,280
Speaker 1: borrowing cost as so many different currencies have been devalued.

00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:50,200
Speaker 1: of you weighing in, so I'm gonna try to take

566
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:54,120
Speaker 1: as many of these reactions and your calls as I can.

567
00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 1: Jerry from we just had this one right or is

568
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,240
Speaker 1: that a different one? I'm caught up in my numbers here.

569
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:06,760
Speaker 1: Let's see Teddy from Greensboro, North Carolina DD fire Away.

570
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:11,880
Speaker 8: If he's in Highlands, he needs to go to bust

571
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:15,480
Speaker 8: your butt falls and jump off to Cliff. I'm a

572
00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:17,719
Speaker 8: sixty two year old man and I did it for

573
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:20,920
Speaker 8: the first time this past summer. He should try.

574
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 1: I have no idea what he's talking about I have

575
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:28,440
Speaker 1: never been to the Highlands, but people in Colorado are

576
00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 1: upset because I said that Buck was in the mountains

577
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,000
Speaker 1: and that they're not the real mountains. Here is cc

578
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:37,640
Speaker 1: Donnie from Colorado. Hey, Clay Donny from Colorado.

579
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:37,839
Speaker 3: Here.

580
00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 1: Love the show. You guys are doing great.

581
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:42,840
Speaker 5: When you said Buck was in the mountains, I was like,

582
00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 5: oh cool, maybe I'll run into him.

583
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:50,920
Speaker 1: He's in Tennessee. Those aren't mountains. I love to laugh

584
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:53,760
Speaker 1: at the end? Is it now? I mean they're called

585
00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:58,319
Speaker 1: the Great Smoky Mountains. Klingland's dome is pretty high up

586
00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 1: in the sky. I don't know. Is this height shaming?

587
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:06,000
Speaker 1: Is this even allowed? Are people from Colorado able to

588
00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:08,520
Speaker 1: just call in and ridicule the idea that other people

589
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:11,879
Speaker 1: can go to the mountains? Is no other mountain? I mean,

590
00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 1: I like Colorado. It's a fabulous state. I wish it

591
00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:19,520
Speaker 1: was not run by communists. But I gotta tell you,

592
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:23,280
Speaker 1: I feel like the Great Smoky Mountains the most visited

593
00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:27,680
Speaker 1: national park in the entire country. I think Colorado guy there,

594
00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:30,160
Speaker 1: I think you come to the Great Smoky Mountains with

595
00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:33,440
Speaker 1: that kind of take. I'm just gonna say, you might

596
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,400
Speaker 1: be running down the Mountain, the Great Smoky Mountain from

597
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:40,879
Speaker 1: Klingman's Dome, amazingly high in the sky with your tail

598
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:44,440
Speaker 1: tuck between your legs. I think people in the mountains

599
00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:48,720
Speaker 1: of Tennessee, the mountains of North Carolina would take offense

600
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:52,200
Speaker 1: to your mountain shaming because you happen to live in Colorado.

601
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:55,799
Speaker 1: In my opinion, Buck is in the mountains, not the

602
00:35:55,840 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 1: Colorado Mountains. I verage I think about the Colorado mounta

603
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 1: by the way, I think about Cores light. I wouldn't

604
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:04,560
Speaker 1: mind a Cores light right now. It was a great

605
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:08,960
Speaker 1: ad back when beer companies actually made ads that made

606
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,719
Speaker 1: people want to drink beer instead of made people want

607
00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,320
Speaker 1: to take your beer and throw it at television. Screed

608
00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:19,640
Speaker 1: we come back. One of the most ridiculous casualties of

609
00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:24,440
Speaker 1: the BLM era. If you said all lives matter in

610
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:28,960
Speaker 1: the summer of twenty twenty, you could lose your job.

611
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:34,359
Speaker 1: Think about how bonkers that is. And was this guy

612
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:39,080
Speaker 1: lost his job for that? Grant Napier. He was the

613
00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:43,040
Speaker 1: radio announcer for the Sacramento Kings. I think you guys

614
00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:44,680
Speaker 1: are going to want to hear this story, and I

615
00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:49,080
Speaker 1: think it's important to remember just how crazy those communists

616
00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:51,040
Speaker 1: were we'll talk about it next
