0:01:16.959 --> 0:01:20.839
<v Speaker 1>numbers for Trump and the Democrats look like they need excuses,

0:01:20.880 --> 0:01:23.440
<v Speaker 1>not just on that, but also for his latest actions

0:01:23.440 --> 0:01:26.720
<v Speaker 1>with regard to Russia. We'll talk about that and where

0:01:26.720 --> 0:01:30.920
<v Speaker 1>the negotiations over the wall stand and will Roger Stone

0:01:31.000 --> 0:01:34.720
<v Speaker 1>be silenced by the statists who are chasing after him?

0:01:34.800 --> 0:01:36.760
<v Speaker 1>That in more coming up on the buck Sexton Show.

0:01:37.040 --> 0:01:40.720
<v Speaker 1>This is the buck Sexton Show where the mission or

0:01:40.760 --> 0:01:44.880
<v Speaker 1>mission is to decode what really matters with actionable intelligence.

0:01:47.080 --> 0:01:50.760
<v Speaker 1>Make no mistake American, You're a great American. Again, The

0:01:50.800 --> 0:02:00.840
<v Speaker 1>buck Sexton Show begins, No, break it down for us?

0:02:01.080 --> 0:02:04.080
<v Speaker 1>What do these numbers mean? They mean that the economy

0:02:04.120 --> 0:02:08.040
<v Speaker 1>is still going strong and that actually employers aren't really

0:02:08.080 --> 0:02:10.960
<v Speaker 1>phased by the shutdown. I'll just point you to the

0:02:11.000 --> 0:02:15.000
<v Speaker 1>private payrolls number. They increase by almost three hundred thousand,

0:02:15.360 --> 0:02:18.360
<v Speaker 1>So that means while the government was partially shut down,

0:02:18.960 --> 0:02:22.519
<v Speaker 1>companies didn't hesitate to hire. It did not shake competence.

0:02:22.760 --> 0:02:24.320
<v Speaker 1>If you look at all of last year, and we

0:02:24.360 --> 0:02:27.240
<v Speaker 1>are coming off a bumper year for job creation, the

0:02:27.360 --> 0:02:32.000
<v Speaker 1>average per month for private employment within the choose, this

0:02:32.160 --> 0:02:35.400
<v Speaker 1>number is higher than the average for every month of

0:02:35.520 --> 0:02:38.080
<v Speaker 1>last year. So no, I would say, no effect really

0:02:38.080 --> 0:02:40.560
<v Speaker 1>in terms of a competence hit in terms of hiring

0:02:40.560 --> 0:02:43.839
<v Speaker 1>for private employers as a result of the shutdown, given

0:02:43.880 --> 0:02:47.120
<v Speaker 1>the other party got into office instead of being up

0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:50.320
<v Speaker 1>and having these phenomenal three hundred and four thousand jobs added,

0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:54.240
<v Speaker 1>and we had so many great months. And you know,

0:02:54.440 --> 0:02:56.760
<v Speaker 1>it's been a little bit tricky because I'm in the

0:02:56.800 --> 0:02:59.279
<v Speaker 1>middle of some very big trade deals, which is disruptive

0:02:59.360 --> 0:03:01.480
<v Speaker 1>before you make it, but after you make it, those

0:03:01.520 --> 0:03:03.600
<v Speaker 1>deals are much better than they were before. I don't

0:03:03.639 --> 0:03:07.160
<v Speaker 1>even mean much better, I mean better like nobody's ever

0:03:07.200 --> 0:03:10.480
<v Speaker 1>seen before, but the strongest station in the world. So

0:03:10.639 --> 0:03:14.440
<v Speaker 1>that was really good. But those numbers were very, very impressive.

0:03:14.639 --> 0:03:19.240
<v Speaker 1>Who were doing fantastically well. So we'll take that every

0:03:19.240 --> 0:03:23.160
<v Speaker 1>single time. Welcome to the Buck, sex and Show everybody,

0:03:23.360 --> 0:03:25.360
<v Speaker 1>Happy Friday, Thank you for being here, coming to you

0:03:25.400 --> 0:03:32.240
<v Speaker 1>live from New York City, my hometown. Odd. It is cold,

0:03:32.639 --> 0:03:36.320
<v Speaker 1>it is smelly, it is overcrowded, but it is home.

0:03:36.680 --> 0:03:39.360
<v Speaker 1>Producer Mike. Yeah, but when it's cold, it stinks a

0:03:39.360 --> 0:03:41.480
<v Speaker 1>little less. You know. That's a good point. Yeah, that's

0:03:41.520 --> 0:03:43.240
<v Speaker 1>like I always tell people, if you're gonna go to Venice,

0:03:43.800 --> 0:03:47.119
<v Speaker 1>don't go in the summer. No doubt, those open canals

0:03:47.120 --> 0:03:51.920
<v Speaker 1>can get funk. Key also got DJ John the House

0:03:51.960 --> 0:03:56.080
<v Speaker 1>and special guests. Little Brother is visiting one of these

0:03:56.080 --> 0:03:59.600
<v Speaker 1>Sexon brothers Keats. He is here. He is in the house.

0:03:59.600 --> 0:04:01.880
<v Speaker 1>He is watching the magic unfold. I think this is

0:04:01.880 --> 0:04:04.920
<v Speaker 1>his first time in the whole thing. Yeah, and he

0:04:05.040 --> 0:04:06.520
<v Speaker 1>I just found out he works like two blocks away.

0:04:06.560 --> 0:04:08.240
<v Speaker 1>He's never come over. Yea, and what's all without that.

0:04:08.280 --> 0:04:10.960
<v Speaker 1>It's a little sad for me too. But all right,

0:04:10.960 --> 0:04:13.320
<v Speaker 1>we'll let him see. We'll let him see the super

0:04:13.360 --> 0:04:16.600
<v Speaker 1>fancy studio next door, the Hannity studio, you know where

0:04:16.600 --> 0:04:19.480
<v Speaker 1>everything is, just where the streets are paved of gold

0:04:19.560 --> 0:04:22.480
<v Speaker 1>and the microphones are made of Yeah, I don't know,

0:04:22.680 --> 0:04:24.960
<v Speaker 1>faberge eggs and things. So we'll take them over there

0:04:25.040 --> 0:04:27.080
<v Speaker 1>next Yeah, that's where the real that's where the real

0:04:27.080 --> 0:04:29.719
<v Speaker 1>magic happens. So we got things to talk about today.

0:04:31.200 --> 0:04:34.480
<v Speaker 1>We have a lot of talk about. Actually a pretty

0:04:34.600 --> 0:04:39.200
<v Speaker 1>out of nowhere breaking news story on Northam, not the

0:04:39.240 --> 0:04:40.880
<v Speaker 1>one about abortion. We got a different we'll talk to

0:04:40.880 --> 0:04:42.479
<v Speaker 1>you about later on this hour. I just saw it.

0:04:42.480 --> 0:04:44.680
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna read in and make sure we bring that

0:04:44.720 --> 0:04:47.120
<v Speaker 1>to your attention. It's kind of a vague teaser, but

0:04:47.160 --> 0:04:49.400
<v Speaker 1>I think sometimes that's sometimes the best teasers are a

0:04:49.400 --> 0:04:52.800
<v Speaker 1>little bit vague. Obviously, the economy, we started off with

0:04:52.839 --> 0:04:56.120
<v Speaker 1>that three hundred four thousand jobs created in January. What

0:04:56.200 --> 0:04:59.880
<v Speaker 1>I remember being told that because of the government shutdown,

0:05:00.120 --> 0:05:03.360
<v Speaker 1>gonna have dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria. You know,

0:05:03.400 --> 0:05:05.400
<v Speaker 1>I was told there's gonna be all this bad stuff

0:05:05.400 --> 0:05:09.680
<v Speaker 1>that happens because the shutdown. Well, everybody got paid, at

0:05:09.720 --> 0:05:11.880
<v Speaker 1>least all the federal government workers got paid. They're all

0:05:11.920 --> 0:05:14.919
<v Speaker 1>back at work, and the economy look like he's doing

0:05:14.960 --> 0:05:18.679
<v Speaker 1>pretty well. Last month job growth picking up basically double

0:05:18.760 --> 0:05:21.599
<v Speaker 1>what they thought it would be, So that seems pretty significant.

0:05:21.600 --> 0:05:24.360
<v Speaker 1>That seems pretty significant to me. And this is one

0:05:24.360 --> 0:05:26.040
<v Speaker 1>of those days where you have to remember, we were

0:05:26.040 --> 0:05:29.000
<v Speaker 1>told that Trump was going to destroy the economy and

0:05:29.040 --> 0:05:33.919
<v Speaker 1>it would be terrible, and you know, he's so inept,

0:05:34.000 --> 0:05:36.680
<v Speaker 1>They say, he's so incapable of understanding any of this

0:05:36.800 --> 0:05:38.920
<v Speaker 1>that it's just a matter of time before things are

0:05:38.920 --> 0:05:42.600
<v Speaker 1>going to all collapse. Well, now we're going on what

0:05:42.880 --> 0:05:46.600
<v Speaker 1>we're in year three here, and things haven't collapsed. Things

0:05:46.640 --> 0:05:49.159
<v Speaker 1>are actually doing pretty well. So I'm gonna need someone

0:05:49.200 --> 0:05:53.040
<v Speaker 1>to tell me why we should turn over the keys

0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:58.560
<v Speaker 1>to our economy to the ideology of a twenty nine

0:05:58.640 --> 0:06:01.880
<v Speaker 1>year old bartender who seems to have problems with math.

0:06:03.760 --> 0:06:08.719
<v Speaker 1>If you want Okazio Cortez, Warren Sanders. If you want

0:06:08.760 --> 0:06:10.599
<v Speaker 1>them to be the ones making the decisions about the

0:06:10.600 --> 0:06:14.520
<v Speaker 1>economy and about America, then just be prepared to deal

0:06:14.560 --> 0:06:16.600
<v Speaker 1>with a lot of people that are short on answers

0:06:17.240 --> 0:06:20.200
<v Speaker 1>and long on sanctimony, a lot of Oh, it's just

0:06:20.320 --> 0:06:22.240
<v Speaker 1>to help the poor people, and why don't you want

0:06:22.279 --> 0:06:24.719
<v Speaker 1>to help the poor? You know, the best way to

0:06:24.760 --> 0:06:30.599
<v Speaker 1>help poor people is from a government perspective. Creatives robust

0:06:30.760 --> 0:06:33.919
<v Speaker 1>and rapidly growing in economy as possible, so people have

0:06:33.960 --> 0:06:36.839
<v Speaker 1>as much money as possible, so that communities are in

0:06:36.880 --> 0:06:38.640
<v Speaker 1>a position to help those who are in need and

0:06:38.640 --> 0:06:41.160
<v Speaker 1>who are less fortunate, and not just rely on a

0:06:41.200 --> 0:06:44.520
<v Speaker 1>massive government safety net, as we know, can often turn

0:06:44.560 --> 0:06:48.480
<v Speaker 1>into a hammock and has lots of long term, downstream

0:06:48.600 --> 0:06:53.640
<v Speaker 1>negative social ramifications. So that's a conversation, I suppose for

0:06:53.680 --> 0:06:58.320
<v Speaker 1>another time. It's going pretty well in Trump Land when

0:06:58.360 --> 0:07:00.240
<v Speaker 1>it comes to the economy. There's some other areas still

0:07:00.279 --> 0:07:02.240
<v Speaker 1>need a lot of work. We'll talk about the border

0:07:02.279 --> 0:07:06.440
<v Speaker 1>and what's going on there over the fight on the wall.

0:07:06.960 --> 0:07:10.160
<v Speaker 1>Still amazed. I still see people saying that walls don't work.

0:07:10.800 --> 0:07:13.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what it's going to take what it's

0:07:13.280 --> 0:07:15.880
<v Speaker 1>gonna say. I wish we could set up some kind

0:07:15.880 --> 0:07:18.720
<v Speaker 1>of an experiment where anybody who says walls don't work,

0:07:19.000 --> 0:07:20.960
<v Speaker 1>we'll take them to a place and we'll say, hey,

0:07:21.000 --> 0:07:23.520
<v Speaker 1>we'll give you a thousand dollars if you get from

0:07:23.520 --> 0:07:26.360
<v Speaker 1>A to B, but we're gonna put a twenty foot

0:07:26.360 --> 0:07:29.240
<v Speaker 1>wall in your way and it's going to stretch for

0:07:29.520 --> 0:07:31.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, miles, and at the end of the wall,

0:07:31.880 --> 0:07:34.200
<v Speaker 1>we're also going to set up people who are in

0:07:34.320 --> 0:07:36.360
<v Speaker 1>vehicles who are there to prevent you from getting over

0:07:36.360 --> 0:07:39.240
<v Speaker 1>the wall. And there's surveillance systems attached to it, and

0:07:39.320 --> 0:07:43.840
<v Speaker 1>there's motion sensors attached to it. Yeah, let's see if

0:07:43.840 --> 0:07:45.680
<v Speaker 1>it's easy. Let's see how that goes for you. And

0:07:45.720 --> 0:07:47.280
<v Speaker 1>then you can tell me, well, if you can hop

0:07:47.280 --> 0:07:49.960
<v Speaker 1>over the twenty foot wall or the fifteen foot wall

0:07:49.960 --> 0:07:54.000
<v Speaker 1>with the motion sensors and the cameras and roving border patrols,

0:07:54.960 --> 0:07:57.000
<v Speaker 1>then we can have a conversation about how they don't work.

0:07:58.280 --> 0:08:01.000
<v Speaker 1>They're still saying it, and we're we're preparing for this

0:08:01.840 --> 0:08:04.920
<v Speaker 1>State of the Union address. I think the expectation is

0:08:04.920 --> 0:08:09.800
<v Speaker 1>that Trump's probably going to say that this is when

0:08:09.840 --> 0:08:15.040
<v Speaker 1>the national emergency will be declared, and national emergency is

0:08:15.080 --> 0:08:17.400
<v Speaker 1>not as as scary as it sounds. Keep in mind

0:08:17.400 --> 0:08:20.200
<v Speaker 1>that the people that are saying this is tyrannical. It's

0:08:20.200 --> 0:08:24.200
<v Speaker 1>a national emergency to build a fence, folks, Okay, it's

0:08:24.280 --> 0:08:26.720
<v Speaker 1>really what we're talking about. It's not a national emergency

0:08:26.800 --> 0:08:30.360
<v Speaker 1>to you know, seize your bank account or take anyone's

0:08:30.400 --> 0:08:32.400
<v Speaker 1>guns away, although Democrats would love that. You know, it's

0:08:32.400 --> 0:08:36.120
<v Speaker 1>not a national emergency that suspends habeas corpus or no.

0:08:36.920 --> 0:08:42.360
<v Speaker 1>It's a national emergency to build offense. I think will

0:08:42.440 --> 0:08:44.800
<v Speaker 1>be okay, you know, I think this will all be

0:08:44.840 --> 0:08:47.719
<v Speaker 1>all right, but it'll obviously go into the go into

0:08:47.800 --> 0:08:51.280
<v Speaker 1>the system, and there'll be a lot of legal back

0:08:51.320 --> 0:08:55.559
<v Speaker 1>and forth over it. But I think the Trump's basic

0:08:55.640 --> 0:08:57.520
<v Speaker 1>pitch on the economy and the good news is the

0:08:57.520 --> 0:08:59.319
<v Speaker 1>economy will be strong for the state of the Union.

0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:03.000
<v Speaker 1>And we've heard the Democrats over the last month being crazy.

0:09:03.720 --> 0:09:08.240
<v Speaker 1>The last thirty days has been really clarifying. You can't

0:09:08.360 --> 0:09:11.000
<v Speaker 1>let these people be in charge. You can argue with Trump,

0:09:11.080 --> 0:09:12.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, if you're on the right, if you're a conservative,

0:09:12.880 --> 0:09:16.480
<v Speaker 1>if you if you despise Trump's persona and his personal

0:09:16.800 --> 0:09:20.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, proclivities and everything else. That's one thing. If

0:09:20.120 --> 0:09:22.040
<v Speaker 1>you want to talk about how you know he didn't

0:09:22.040 --> 0:09:24.640
<v Speaker 1>move fast enough on the wall, he did not. He

0:09:24.720 --> 0:09:26.760
<v Speaker 1>is talking about DACA, which should be concerning. It's a

0:09:26.800 --> 0:09:29.880
<v Speaker 1>lot of areas to criticize Trump, but let's just remember that.

0:09:30.000 --> 0:09:32.040
<v Speaker 1>You know, you can work within the world of Trump

0:09:32.080 --> 0:09:33.920
<v Speaker 1>and the people around him on the economy. You can

0:09:33.960 --> 0:09:35.839
<v Speaker 1>work within the world of Trump and the people around

0:09:35.880 --> 0:09:39.120
<v Speaker 1>him on immigration and push for better ideas and better policy.

0:09:39.240 --> 0:09:42.920
<v Speaker 1>And Trump has done that right. Trump has adjusted what

0:09:43.000 --> 0:09:46.959
<v Speaker 1>he has been advocating for based on either the feedback

0:09:47.000 --> 0:09:49.440
<v Speaker 1>of the American people or feedback of experts, people in

0:09:49.480 --> 0:09:52.080
<v Speaker 1>Congress who know what's up. It's not very many of them.

0:09:53.200 --> 0:10:01.640
<v Speaker 1>But the alternative is the far left, infanticides, porting socialism,

0:10:01.840 --> 0:10:07.600
<v Speaker 1>loving open borders, wanting left. That's not a good look.

0:10:07.760 --> 0:10:09.439
<v Speaker 1>That's not a good thing. That's not going to help

0:10:09.480 --> 0:10:13.280
<v Speaker 1>this country at all. And you know they're going to

0:10:13.400 --> 0:10:16.440
<v Speaker 1>try to normalize to borrow work from a left. A

0:10:16.480 --> 0:10:19.600
<v Speaker 1>lot of this stuff that they're saying right now, a

0:10:19.600 --> 0:10:22.400
<v Speaker 1>lot of what you're hearing about a seventy percent or

0:10:22.440 --> 0:10:24.480
<v Speaker 1>a ninety percent tax rate, they're going to say, oh, well,

0:10:24.520 --> 0:10:27.400
<v Speaker 1>it'll look what happened in the fifties. Because the more

0:10:27.400 --> 0:10:29.920
<v Speaker 1>people pay attention to this and understand what the real

0:10:29.960 --> 0:10:33.040
<v Speaker 1>long term implications would be, the more likely it is

0:10:34.240 --> 0:10:37.400
<v Speaker 1>that they'll say, you know, I think I'll stick with

0:10:37.520 --> 0:10:41.880
<v Speaker 1>the I'll I'll stick with the capitalists over the commies.

0:10:42.600 --> 0:10:45.360
<v Speaker 1>You know, that's a rough approximation for the two sides.

0:10:45.360 --> 0:10:48.120
<v Speaker 1>But I think I'd rather go with people that believe

0:10:48.160 --> 0:10:56.080
<v Speaker 1>in individual individual rights and the free market and rewarding

0:10:56.160 --> 0:10:59.480
<v Speaker 1>success and hard work and keeping the government out of

0:10:59.480 --> 0:11:01.400
<v Speaker 1>your life over people who seem I think the government

0:11:01.400 --> 0:11:04.600
<v Speaker 1>has the answer to everything. The governor has he answered

0:11:04.600 --> 0:11:07.520
<v Speaker 1>everything we haven't answered. By the way, about Elizabeth Warren's DNA,

0:11:07.880 --> 0:11:10.400
<v Speaker 1>now she agrees that that was a mistake. I think

0:11:10.400 --> 0:11:12.960
<v Speaker 1>it's funny because CNN rolled that out initially, like, look,

0:11:13.040 --> 0:11:16.720
<v Speaker 1>she's proved all the haters wrong. No, CNN, but you

0:11:16.720 --> 0:11:19.960
<v Speaker 1>have proved all the haters right once again. Elizabeth Warren

0:11:20.000 --> 0:11:24.400
<v Speaker 1>has had to apologize. We'll see what comes next on that.

0:11:24.440 --> 0:11:27.520
<v Speaker 1>We've got more on immigration the wall. On this story

0:11:27.559 --> 0:11:30.040
<v Speaker 1>about Governor Northam, you are going to have to hear it.

0:11:30.080 --> 0:11:33.280
<v Speaker 1>That's coming up. I think Nancy Pelosi is hurting our

0:11:33.320 --> 0:11:38.760
<v Speaker 1>country very badly by doing what she's doing. And ultimately,

0:11:40.120 --> 0:11:42.600
<v Speaker 1>I think I've set the table very nicely. I think

0:11:42.640 --> 0:11:46.199
<v Speaker 1>people understand well, they understand Peter. They didn't know what

0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:48.640
<v Speaker 1>was going on in the southern border. Now they know.

0:11:49.080 --> 0:11:51.480
<v Speaker 1>They had no idea the amount of crime, the amount

0:11:51.480 --> 0:11:54.440
<v Speaker 1>of drugs, the amount of human trafficking, which can be

0:11:54.480 --> 0:11:58.920
<v Speaker 1>stopped with a proper system. I've set the table. I've

0:11:58.960 --> 0:12:03.080
<v Speaker 1>set the stage for doing what I'm going to do. Yeah,

0:12:03.120 --> 0:12:04.839
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna wait till the fifteenth. I think it's a

0:12:04.880 --> 0:12:09.760
<v Speaker 1>waste of time. I hope the President's right. I do

0:12:09.880 --> 0:12:13.960
<v Speaker 1>think that more people than ever are aware of what's

0:12:13.960 --> 0:12:17.040
<v Speaker 1>happening at the border, and also know that the Democrats

0:12:17.679 --> 0:12:21.960
<v Speaker 1>have been lying. The media has been lying about what's

0:12:21.960 --> 0:12:27.000
<v Speaker 1>happening the border, this whole idea that barriers don't work,

0:12:27.040 --> 0:12:29.800
<v Speaker 1>that there's no crisis, that there's no problem, that border

0:12:29.800 --> 0:12:36.520
<v Speaker 1>patrol isn't overwhelmed, that there's not a systematic effort, you know,

0:12:36.559 --> 0:12:41.680
<v Speaker 1>a coordinated strategic effort to overwhelm our southern border with

0:12:41.920 --> 0:12:46.240
<v Speaker 1>asylum requests, with NGOs and all these legal aid organizations

0:12:46.320 --> 0:12:49.840
<v Speaker 1>helping pass the word down to people. What do you

0:12:49.840 --> 0:12:53.040
<v Speaker 1>need to say to game the system. You know, there

0:12:53.040 --> 0:12:57.400
<v Speaker 1>were these arrests for birth tourism that happened. You know,

0:12:57.400 --> 0:13:00.640
<v Speaker 1>these prosecutions that are underway now for birth tourism. Essentially,

0:13:00.760 --> 0:13:05.120
<v Speaker 1>women come from China, they stay in a hotel in

0:13:05.160 --> 0:13:07.840
<v Speaker 1>the US that is set up for this, They give

0:13:07.880 --> 0:13:10.400
<v Speaker 1>birth in that hotel. They make sure they get all

0:13:10.440 --> 0:13:12.600
<v Speaker 1>the paperwork and everything so that that baby is a

0:13:12.720 --> 0:13:16.559
<v Speaker 1>US citizen. Then they go home to China. But what

0:13:16.600 --> 0:13:19.400
<v Speaker 1>that means is that when the child is grown up

0:13:19.440 --> 0:13:21.680
<v Speaker 1>and wants to go to America for school, or wants

0:13:21.679 --> 0:13:25.400
<v Speaker 1>to go to America for whatever reason, they're a US citizen.

0:13:26.400 --> 0:13:28.880
<v Speaker 1>As a matter of law. They're is American as you

0:13:28.960 --> 0:13:32.760
<v Speaker 1>and me. But they grew up in Beijing or Shanghai,

0:13:33.559 --> 0:13:38.840
<v Speaker 1>maybe have no affinity or loyalty for this country whatsoever.

0:13:39.920 --> 0:13:45.360
<v Speaker 1>Now we're prosecuting them. This is a scam. People will

0:13:45.400 --> 0:13:48.520
<v Speaker 1>send will send individuals to prison. Prosecutors will send people

0:13:48.559 --> 0:13:51.960
<v Speaker 1>to prison for doing this because they recognize that it

0:13:52.120 --> 0:13:56.320
<v Speaker 1>is wrong. They recognize that this is an abuse of

0:13:56.360 --> 0:13:59.240
<v Speaker 1>the system. It's done in bad faith, and we cannot

0:13:59.280 --> 0:14:03.360
<v Speaker 1>allow it. But what I need to know, I need

0:14:03.360 --> 0:14:07.680
<v Speaker 1>the Democrats to explain because they can't. Is why is

0:14:07.720 --> 0:14:12.679
<v Speaker 1>it that when someone flies into a hotel, remember there,

0:14:12.679 --> 0:14:14.720
<v Speaker 1>at least they're paying money here, and you know they're

0:14:14.720 --> 0:14:17.559
<v Speaker 1>maybe boosting the economy a little bit. You could say,

0:14:17.400 --> 0:14:22.640
<v Speaker 1>they fly into La or San Francisco and the whole

0:14:22.680 --> 0:14:26.320
<v Speaker 1>purpose of it is to give birth in the US.

0:14:27.120 --> 0:14:30.320
<v Speaker 1>They are committing an a legal act, right The Chinese

0:14:30.400 --> 0:14:33.360
<v Speaker 1>national who shows up in La as part of a

0:14:33.440 --> 0:14:36.120
<v Speaker 1>scheme to give birth here, you know that's a legal

0:14:36.440 --> 0:14:39.880
<v Speaker 1>But a Honduran who shows up at our border nine

0:14:39.880 --> 0:14:42.680
<v Speaker 1>months pregnant and says I fear gang violence and knows

0:14:42.720 --> 0:14:44.640
<v Speaker 1>that she's going to be led into the US right away,

0:14:44.800 --> 0:14:46.800
<v Speaker 1>she's already lied about the gang violence. But who can

0:14:46.840 --> 0:14:49.160
<v Speaker 1>really prove that one or the other? And then she

0:14:49.320 --> 0:14:52.320
<v Speaker 1>gives birth in this country, and then that child is

0:14:52.320 --> 0:14:56.360
<v Speaker 1>an American citizen. What's what's really the difference? You know,

0:14:56.400 --> 0:15:00.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure we could get some smug Democrat lawyer to

0:15:00.120 --> 0:15:02.040
<v Speaker 1>tell me, but well, we don't need that because we

0:15:02.120 --> 0:15:05.200
<v Speaker 1>know there is no difference. I mean, the difference between

0:15:05.320 --> 0:15:08.400
<v Speaker 1>birth tourism and people who show up here illegally and

0:15:08.520 --> 0:15:12.640
<v Speaker 1>give birth in this country is just a function of

0:15:14.120 --> 0:15:17.920
<v Speaker 1>the process. I mean there's it's the same idea. You're

0:15:17.960 --> 0:15:20.640
<v Speaker 1>going to break the law to get the benefits of

0:15:20.760 --> 0:15:24.360
<v Speaker 1>US citizenship for somebody, and that benefit, by the way,

0:15:24.400 --> 0:15:27.160
<v Speaker 1>also extends to the person who breaks the law. It's

0:15:27.200 --> 0:15:29.880
<v Speaker 1>not just for the child. You know, your US citizen

0:15:29.960 --> 0:15:34.320
<v Speaker 1>child can sponsor you later on in life to have

0:15:34.440 --> 0:15:38.320
<v Speaker 1>family reunification. And if you're not in favor of family reunification,

0:15:38.360 --> 0:15:40.000
<v Speaker 1>well then you're some kind of a monster. Then you're

0:15:40.040 --> 0:15:43.360
<v Speaker 1>a terrible person, and everyone should hate you and all

0:15:43.360 --> 0:15:47.200
<v Speaker 1>the rest of it. So, you know, think about it

0:15:47.240 --> 0:15:50.560
<v Speaker 1>this way. We're willing to prosecute birth tourism hotels, but

0:15:50.560 --> 0:15:53.360
<v Speaker 1>we're not willing to prosecute people who show up at

0:15:53.360 --> 0:15:56.200
<v Speaker 1>the border and lie and then don't show up for

0:15:56.200 --> 0:16:00.320
<v Speaker 1>their immigration hearing for asylum because they know that's not

0:16:00.320 --> 0:16:04.760
<v Speaker 1>the political will. This is all about political will. Remember,

0:16:04.880 --> 0:16:12.240
<v Speaker 1>tyranny is not the direct and strenuous but across the

0:16:12.320 --> 0:16:18.160
<v Speaker 1>board application of strict law. Tyranny is the capricious application

0:16:18.360 --> 0:16:21.080
<v Speaker 1>of law. It is the some people live by the law,

0:16:21.240 --> 0:16:23.480
<v Speaker 1>some people don't. That's what a real tyranny is. That's

0:16:23.480 --> 0:16:26.960
<v Speaker 1>what the Soviet Union was. That's what show me a country.

0:16:27.560 --> 0:16:31.480
<v Speaker 1>You know, look at North Korea. All North Koreans don't

0:16:31.520 --> 0:16:34.080
<v Speaker 1>live under strict laws. Kim John Un doesn't live under

0:16:34.080 --> 0:16:38.600
<v Speaker 1>strict laws. Kim Jong uns henchmen don't live under strict laws. Right,

0:16:39.960 --> 0:16:43.720
<v Speaker 1>So that's the way you need to think of what

0:16:43.840 --> 0:16:48.480
<v Speaker 1>is tyrannical when people are using the law as a

0:16:48.520 --> 0:16:51.640
<v Speaker 1>tool of politics and only enforcing against some people and

0:16:51.760 --> 0:16:55.680
<v Speaker 1>not against others. By the way, I just also, you know,

0:16:55.720 --> 0:16:59.800
<v Speaker 1>I think that Trump. I think that Trump has made

0:17:00.040 --> 0:17:03.480
<v Speaker 1>some progress on the border, and at least people understand

0:17:03.480 --> 0:17:05.960
<v Speaker 1>what's going on there. They know that anyone who says

0:17:06.000 --> 0:17:08.359
<v Speaker 1>walls don't work is just making stuff up and doesn't

0:17:08.359 --> 0:17:10.159
<v Speaker 1>know what the heck they're talking about. There. There's a

0:17:10.200 --> 0:17:12.720
<v Speaker 1>greater understanding of that now as well, which is important.

0:17:13.320 --> 0:17:18.960
<v Speaker 1>But I gotta tell you I'm not I am not

0:17:19.119 --> 0:17:24.159
<v Speaker 1>particularly optimistic that there will be any kind of a

0:17:24.240 --> 0:17:26.120
<v Speaker 1>deal with the Democrats on this. And all that's gonna

0:17:26.160 --> 0:17:28.920
<v Speaker 1>happen is it gonna be a declaration of national emergency

0:17:29.119 --> 0:17:33.320
<v Speaker 1>and then sure enough it'll go into the courts and

0:17:33.440 --> 0:17:38.560
<v Speaker 1>both sides will declare victory. We've got to deal with this.

0:17:38.640 --> 0:17:41.120
<v Speaker 1>Later on the show, we'll have an actual arms expert

0:17:41.240 --> 0:17:43.760
<v Speaker 1>come to tell us what's happening with the Russians and

0:17:43.800 --> 0:17:46.560
<v Speaker 1>this treaty. But it's not. It's so funny this week,

0:17:46.600 --> 0:17:48.760
<v Speaker 1>I've been hearing that Trump is Putin's puppet for a whole,

0:17:48.800 --> 0:17:50.760
<v Speaker 1>but in all, Trump is Putin's puppet. It's come a

0:17:50.760 --> 0:17:54.240
<v Speaker 1>bunch of times. Meanwhile, Nancy Pelosi is out there, and

0:17:55.480 --> 0:17:59.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, she's saying that Trump is risking a new

0:17:59.400 --> 0:18:02.560
<v Speaker 1>arms race with Russia because he's not Putin's puppet. It

0:18:02.600 --> 0:18:05.160
<v Speaker 1>turns out he's not doing whatever Putin wants. And here's

0:18:05.160 --> 0:18:08.920
<v Speaker 1>what Trump had to say about that. He says, you're

0:18:08.960 --> 0:18:16.520
<v Speaker 1>resking new arms races. Honestly, I don't think she has

0:18:16.560 --> 0:18:19.520
<v Speaker 1>a clue. I really don't. I don't think Nancy has

0:18:19.520 --> 0:18:22.240
<v Speaker 1>a clue. And I see that when she says wolves

0:18:22.240 --> 0:18:27.320
<v Speaker 1>are a moral she doesn't have. She doesn't know, and

0:18:27.720 --> 0:18:31.720
<v Speaker 1>I wish she did, because she's hurting this country so badly.

0:18:32.800 --> 0:18:37.480
<v Speaker 1>It's all rhetorical, not delivered well, but it's all rhetorical.

0:18:38.000 --> 0:18:41.680
<v Speaker 1>She's hurting our country very very badly, even with statements

0:18:41.760 --> 0:18:46.119
<v Speaker 1>like that. Okay, thank you very much, everybody. It's true,

0:18:47.600 --> 0:18:52.119
<v Speaker 1>it's true. Hurting the country with statements like that doesn't

0:18:52.160 --> 0:18:54.320
<v Speaker 1>doesn't have a clue is the most true part. Nancy blues.

0:18:54.359 --> 0:18:56.480
<v Speaker 1>He does not have a clue. I mean, she really

0:18:56.520 --> 0:19:05.120
<v Speaker 1>represents the classic Democrat machine, politician rich, disconnected from from

0:19:05.160 --> 0:19:11.760
<v Speaker 1>normal people, but ensconced in a in a just looney

0:19:11.800 --> 0:19:15.600
<v Speaker 1>liberal district in California, so there's no pressure on her

0:19:15.680 --> 0:19:18.919
<v Speaker 1>to be a normal person. She gets to just be

0:19:19.040 --> 0:19:21.800
<v Speaker 1>as far left as she wants and do whatever she wants.

0:19:22.480 --> 0:19:24.760
<v Speaker 1>And I just wish more people would see her for

0:19:24.800 --> 0:19:26.959
<v Speaker 1>what she is and all this stuff. But Trump's right.

0:19:27.000 --> 0:19:28.640
<v Speaker 1>At least Trump calls her out on that. We got

0:19:28.640 --> 0:19:32.000
<v Speaker 1>a lot more going up here in just a moment, team,

0:19:32.040 --> 0:19:45.840
<v Speaker 1>so stay with me. Well, he told he told the

0:19:45.880 --> 0:19:49.120
<v Speaker 1>attorneys that I'm not a subject. I'm not a target

0:19:49.119 --> 0:19:56.879
<v Speaker 1>of Yeah, oh yeah, about which I don't know. I

0:19:56.920 --> 0:20:02.000
<v Speaker 1>don't know about that that I don't know about. Not

0:20:02.160 --> 0:20:06.520
<v Speaker 1>a target. Trump says that rodenes he told the attorneys

0:20:06.560 --> 0:20:09.960
<v Speaker 1>that he's not a subject to the Russia probe. Totally

0:20:10.000 --> 0:20:12.200
<v Speaker 1>turns not a subject, not a target. So that's from

0:20:12.200 --> 0:20:16.479
<v Speaker 1>the New York Times interview on January thirty. First. All right,

0:20:16.560 --> 0:20:21.359
<v Speaker 1>so now here we have the president who is coming

0:20:21.359 --> 0:20:23.240
<v Speaker 1>out and saying all this stuff. The New York Times. Look,

0:20:23.400 --> 0:20:26.240
<v Speaker 1>people that that beat up on him for talking to

0:20:26.280 --> 0:20:28.680
<v Speaker 1>the Times because he says to the family New York

0:20:28.680 --> 0:20:32.040
<v Speaker 1>Times he trashes a lot. Yeah, but that's it still

0:20:32.080 --> 0:20:35.840
<v Speaker 1>has a wide readership. And if he didn't, if he

0:20:35.960 --> 0:20:38.080
<v Speaker 1>didn't talk to the New York Times, they would say, oh,

0:20:38.119 --> 0:20:41.760
<v Speaker 1>he's afraid and he's playing favorites and all this other stuff. Right,

0:20:41.880 --> 0:20:44.240
<v Speaker 1>if he wasn't willing to speak to the Times, then

0:20:44.359 --> 0:20:47.520
<v Speaker 1>the issue would be that, you know, he's he's hiding

0:20:47.560 --> 0:20:49.240
<v Speaker 1>from them. But so when he does speak, then he

0:20:49.400 --> 0:20:51.600
<v Speaker 1>of course Trump is damned if he does, damned if

0:20:51.640 --> 0:20:53.280
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't. I mean, that's the way that it works

0:20:53.359 --> 0:20:57.320
<v Speaker 1>with this media, there's no question about it. But is

0:20:57.320 --> 0:20:58.800
<v Speaker 1>an interesting that he says that he's told he's not

0:20:58.880 --> 0:21:00.840
<v Speaker 1>a subject, not a target. I think we're gonna find

0:21:00.880 --> 0:21:02.800
<v Speaker 1>out at the end of this thing that they never

0:21:02.840 --> 0:21:07.680
<v Speaker 1>even came close, they never even came close to having anything,

0:21:08.720 --> 0:21:11.359
<v Speaker 1>you know, to get Trump on. And the stuff that

0:21:11.400 --> 0:21:14.080
<v Speaker 1>we've already heard, you know, the Trump Tower meeting and

0:21:14.119 --> 0:21:18.879
<v Speaker 1>the what's his name Cohen? Uh, that that's that's the

0:21:19.840 --> 0:21:24.000
<v Speaker 1>most quote damning stuff that they've got, and that's nowhere

0:21:24.040 --> 0:21:27.679
<v Speaker 1>near enough for anything, as we know, so there will

0:21:27.720 --> 0:21:29.760
<v Speaker 1>also come a time when we have to say, well,

0:21:29.800 --> 0:21:33.359
<v Speaker 1>hold on a minute, what exactly was all of this for?

0:21:33.680 --> 0:21:37.199
<v Speaker 1>What was all of this for? And the Democrats are

0:21:37.240 --> 0:21:39.560
<v Speaker 1>gonna say a whole lot of stuff, but Russia and

0:21:39.600 --> 0:21:43.239
<v Speaker 1>the elections. But but the truth is that all of

0:21:43.280 --> 0:21:48.600
<v Speaker 1>this was a rage session. It was a kind of

0:21:48.680 --> 0:21:53.680
<v Speaker 1>anger therapy for Democrats that can't handle that Trump won

0:21:53.800 --> 0:21:56.240
<v Speaker 1>and that and then Hillary lost. That's really what the

0:21:56.280 --> 0:21:58.600
<v Speaker 1>Special Counsel has been all about from the beginning. I mean,

0:21:58.600 --> 0:22:02.760
<v Speaker 1>if anyone thinks that Russia is now afraid of us

0:22:02.800 --> 0:22:05.080
<v Speaker 1>and Russia is no longer going to meddle in elections,

0:22:05.080 --> 0:22:07.919
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's that's hysterical, right. That's first of all,

0:22:07.960 --> 0:22:14.000
<v Speaker 1>Russian meddling in the election was pretty irrelevant, didn't you know? Pooh,

0:22:14.080 --> 0:22:16.040
<v Speaker 1>you're saying they didn't I'm not saying they didn't meddle.

0:22:16.040 --> 0:22:20.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm just saying it didn't matter. If one person votes

0:22:20.320 --> 0:22:22.720
<v Speaker 1>twice in a national election, that means that there was

0:22:22.760 --> 0:22:26.159
<v Speaker 1>election fraud during the election. Does that mean that the

0:22:26.160 --> 0:22:29.240
<v Speaker 1>election shouldn't count? Of course not, because we need to

0:22:29.320 --> 0:22:33.000
<v Speaker 1>understand proportion. But the Left doesn't care about proportion. They

0:22:33.040 --> 0:22:35.520
<v Speaker 1>just care that they can make some case that is

0:22:35.640 --> 0:22:40.240
<v Speaker 1>technically or superficially accurate about Russia meddling in the election,

0:22:40.240 --> 0:22:42.280
<v Speaker 1>and then that just comes Russia medal Russia. This is

0:22:42.320 --> 0:22:44.040
<v Speaker 1>like what they do with climate change. Do you believe

0:22:44.040 --> 0:22:46.240
<v Speaker 1>in climate change? Yeah, sure, I believe in climate change. Well,

0:22:46.280 --> 0:22:47.840
<v Speaker 1>then you have to do all these things. I won't know.

0:22:47.920 --> 0:22:51.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't think the climate change means that there's this

0:22:51.440 --> 0:22:56.000
<v Speaker 1>catastrophic environmental global problem that we're you know, that's going

0:22:56.040 --> 0:22:58.479
<v Speaker 1>to destroy us and kill us and all this other stuff, right,

0:22:58.480 --> 0:23:02.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean that's so, so, there is that, um, but

0:23:02.680 --> 0:23:06.399
<v Speaker 1>also who gets who gets prosecuted for lying is going

0:23:06.440 --> 0:23:09.359
<v Speaker 1>to be something that we have to spend more time on.

0:23:09.440 --> 0:23:11.760
<v Speaker 1>Who gets prosecuted for lying is not something that we

0:23:11.800 --> 0:23:16.479
<v Speaker 1>should just let fly under the radar. Here Matt Gates,

0:23:16.520 --> 0:23:20.040
<v Speaker 1>who's a congressman, he spoke about this one recently, because

0:23:20.200 --> 0:23:24.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, I talked to Roger Stone, what yesterday, the

0:23:24.320 --> 0:23:27.040
<v Speaker 1>day before? Yeah, I guess it was yesterday. I supposed

0:23:27.040 --> 0:23:29.720
<v Speaker 1>to Roger Stone on By the way, I like Roger Stone, Mike,

0:23:29.760 --> 0:23:32.359
<v Speaker 1>You remember Rogerston. Rogers Stones is a he's an interesting character.

0:23:32.840 --> 0:23:35.919
<v Speaker 1>No never never him. He's a snappy dresser. Yeah, you know,

0:23:36.040 --> 0:23:38.400
<v Speaker 1>and he's a nice guy. You know, he's weird, I mean,

0:23:38.440 --> 0:23:41.480
<v Speaker 1>definitely weird. I'm not saying that. But he's sharp too.

0:23:41.680 --> 0:23:45.520
<v Speaker 1>He says insightful things. He knows who the worst people

0:23:45.560 --> 0:23:47.359
<v Speaker 1>at CNN are, which is fun. So we had a

0:23:47.400 --> 0:23:50.320
<v Speaker 1>nice chat about that. You know who who is worst

0:23:50.320 --> 0:23:53.480
<v Speaker 1>at CNN? He knows, he's he's correct, He's on the money.

0:23:54.480 --> 0:23:56.400
<v Speaker 1>He's also a fighter. I mean, he says that he's

0:23:56.520 --> 0:24:00.359
<v Speaker 1>he's got no plans to back down against the Special Counsel,

0:24:00.359 --> 0:24:03.800
<v Speaker 1>which is in a position to essentially bankrupt him and

0:24:04.119 --> 0:24:09.679
<v Speaker 1>maybe ruin his life, is in a position to do

0:24:09.720 --> 0:24:11.840
<v Speaker 1>all that stuff. But he still says he's going to

0:24:11.920 --> 0:24:16.800
<v Speaker 1>fight it out. He's gonna keep fighting. And he's getting

0:24:16.840 --> 0:24:21.600
<v Speaker 1>prosecuted for lies about stuff that are Mickey mouse, They're

0:24:21.600 --> 0:24:24.040
<v Speaker 1>just not serious. And he's saying, you know, okay, well

0:24:24.040 --> 0:24:27.200
<v Speaker 1>I told them. You know, he said, plead the fifth

0:24:27.800 --> 0:24:30.920
<v Speaker 1>anything to protect the plan. He says he joked he

0:24:30.960 --> 0:24:33.040
<v Speaker 1>was making a joke, which when you read the full

0:24:33.080 --> 0:24:35.040
<v Speaker 1>context of one of the text messages, I believe he

0:24:35.119 --> 0:24:38.239
<v Speaker 1>was joking, plead the fifth protect the plan, like he

0:24:38.280 --> 0:24:39.920
<v Speaker 1>was trying to be funny, and he's a weird guy,

0:24:40.000 --> 0:24:43.760
<v Speaker 1>so he tells weird jokes. That doesn't surprise me. They

0:24:43.800 --> 0:24:46.040
<v Speaker 1>want to lock him up in federal prison, and they

0:24:46.080 --> 0:24:49.160
<v Speaker 1>want to tell us that, oh, it's because the law

0:24:49.240 --> 0:24:51.480
<v Speaker 1>is the law. We know Democrats dun't believe that the

0:24:51.520 --> 0:24:53.000
<v Speaker 1>law wasn't the law. But it came to Hillary and

0:24:53.000 --> 0:24:56.480
<v Speaker 1>her emails wasn't the law, then how much is for sure?

0:24:57.160 --> 0:25:00.119
<v Speaker 1>There are a lot of other people that have told

0:25:00.119 --> 0:25:05.240
<v Speaker 1>lies to Congress that have not been criminally prosecuted. Former

0:25:05.280 --> 0:25:08.800
<v Speaker 1>Acting Director of the FBI, Andy McCabe, he told lies

0:25:09.000 --> 0:25:13.640
<v Speaker 1>to Congress. I'm sorry to the FBI. Rather, he told

0:25:13.680 --> 0:25:18.960
<v Speaker 1>lies the FBI, and he has not been prosecuted. Matt

0:25:18.960 --> 0:25:22.760
<v Speaker 1>Gates brought this up. I think he's correct on this

0:25:22.800 --> 0:25:25.000
<v Speaker 1>one play eight. I thought Robert Mueller was supposed to

0:25:25.040 --> 0:25:28.200
<v Speaker 1>be investigating Russia collusion. Now he's become a glorified Hall

0:25:28.280 --> 0:25:31.880
<v Speaker 1>monitor enforcing the provisions of lying to Congress. The problem

0:25:31.960 --> 0:25:35.040
<v Speaker 1>is that he's enforcing them unequally. Hillary Clinton said that

0:25:35.080 --> 0:25:37.600
<v Speaker 1>she didn't send to receive any classified email. We know

0:25:37.680 --> 0:25:40.159
<v Speaker 1>that's a lie. Jim Comey said he was never the

0:25:40.200 --> 0:25:43.480
<v Speaker 1>source or never the director of leaked information. He later

0:25:43.560 --> 0:25:45.560
<v Speaker 1>admitted that that was not true, even though it was

0:25:45.560 --> 0:25:48.160
<v Speaker 1>the subject of his sworn testimony before Congress. And you'll

0:25:48.200 --> 0:25:51.360
<v Speaker 1>remember Clapper told all of the American people before Congress

0:25:51.400 --> 0:25:54.439
<v Speaker 1>that there was no bulk collection of data. The deputy

0:25:54.440 --> 0:25:57.960
<v Speaker 1>director of the FBI, mister McCabe, he lied four times.

0:25:58.200 --> 0:26:00.679
<v Speaker 1>He lied so frequently he was demoted and referred for

0:26:00.680 --> 0:26:03.399
<v Speaker 1>criminal prosecution. But a whole lot of these other people

0:26:03.440 --> 0:26:06.840
<v Speaker 1>haven't been And it's it's the greatest evidence that Robert

0:26:06.920 --> 0:26:09.040
<v Speaker 1>Muller is not a person in search of the truth.

0:26:09.200 --> 0:26:11.480
<v Speaker 1>He's out to get Trump and the people close to Trump,

0:26:11.600 --> 0:26:14.040
<v Speaker 1>because if he wasn't, if he was unbiased, you would

0:26:14.080 --> 0:26:17.919
<v Speaker 1>have seen similar charges brought against these other people. The

0:26:17.920 --> 0:26:21.840
<v Speaker 1>whole thing is a get Trump operation, true, The whole

0:26:21.920 --> 0:26:27.760
<v Speaker 1>thing is a get Trump Democrat revenge plot. And I

0:26:27.800 --> 0:26:31.240
<v Speaker 1>was sitting around talking to some friends yesterday about this,

0:26:31.760 --> 0:26:33.680
<v Speaker 1>about how if you had told me a few years

0:26:33.680 --> 0:26:39.159
<v Speaker 1>ago that opposition research would be opposite of research about

0:26:39.800 --> 0:26:45.280
<v Speaker 1>a Republican president that claimed that he had been engaged

0:26:45.400 --> 0:26:52.919
<v Speaker 1>in all kinds of just bizarrely sexual and degrading acts

0:26:52.920 --> 0:26:55.240
<v Speaker 1>in Russia with prostitutes. You know, if you told me

0:26:55.280 --> 0:26:57.560
<v Speaker 1>that that would make its way not just to the

0:26:57.600 --> 0:27:01.119
<v Speaker 1>press who with no verification of it whatsoever, which still

0:27:01.320 --> 0:27:04.000
<v Speaker 1>they have no verification whatsoever, and that that would be

0:27:04.119 --> 0:27:08.440
<v Speaker 1>used as a document in the intelligence community to get

0:27:08.440 --> 0:27:11.199
<v Speaker 1>a fize a warrant on people. I mean to use

0:27:11.280 --> 0:27:13.680
<v Speaker 1>some of the most powerful tools the federal government has

0:27:13.720 --> 0:27:17.840
<v Speaker 1>for surveillance, and to do surveillance on people like Carter Page,

0:27:18.480 --> 0:27:23.399
<v Speaker 1>someone who is so clearly innocent of any wrongdoing and

0:27:23.480 --> 0:27:26.159
<v Speaker 1>not a threat to the United States. For any reasonable person,

0:27:27.000 --> 0:27:29.080
<v Speaker 1>I would have said, no way, But here we are.

0:27:29.920 --> 0:27:32.240
<v Speaker 1>But oh, they've got Roger Stone because he said he

0:27:32.280 --> 0:27:35.240
<v Speaker 1>emailed somebody when he called them, or he called them

0:27:35.680 --> 0:27:43.400
<v Speaker 1>when he actually emailed them. What a surprise. Democrats get away,

0:27:44.080 --> 0:27:48.160
<v Speaker 1>they get the benefit of the doubt. Republicans get get crushed.

0:27:48.600 --> 0:27:50.159
<v Speaker 1>They never get the benefit of the doubt. This is

0:27:50.160 --> 0:27:54.680
<v Speaker 1>not an accident. This is the weaponization of the justice

0:27:54.800 --> 0:28:00.280
<v Speaker 1>apparatus against our side. It has to stop. And Mother

0:28:00.400 --> 0:28:03.800
<v Speaker 1>Probe is a giant Neon red flashing sign saying you

0:28:03.840 --> 0:28:08.160
<v Speaker 1>got to stop this now. Well, this is an unexpected

0:28:08.240 --> 0:28:11.480
<v Speaker 1>story for a Friday producer. Mike and I are just

0:28:11.520 --> 0:28:14.960
<v Speaker 1>seeing this now as we go on air and I

0:28:15.040 --> 0:28:18.840
<v Speaker 1>want to start by saying that there are certain certain

0:28:19.160 --> 0:28:20.840
<v Speaker 1>rules that we should all have in place. We talked

0:28:20.840 --> 0:28:22.960
<v Speaker 1>with these kind of stories. Right there's new information that

0:28:23.000 --> 0:28:25.000
<v Speaker 1>comes to light, we got to make sure that this

0:28:25.119 --> 0:28:29.120
<v Speaker 1>is verified, it's accurate, and know the full context, because

0:28:29.320 --> 0:28:33.560
<v Speaker 1>we have been hammering and rightly so hammering the left

0:28:34.119 --> 0:28:37.600
<v Speaker 1>and the left wing press for what they've been doing

0:28:37.640 --> 0:28:40.520
<v Speaker 1>recently where they see some kind of an opening to

0:28:40.720 --> 0:28:43.720
<v Speaker 1>spread a narrative and they just jump right into it

0:28:43.760 --> 0:28:45.360
<v Speaker 1>right away, and they don't wait for the facts. They

0:28:45.400 --> 0:28:48.720
<v Speaker 1>don't care about, you know, the possibility that they may

0:28:48.800 --> 0:28:52.160
<v Speaker 1>or may not be getting it wrong. They just want

0:28:52.200 --> 0:28:55.239
<v Speaker 1>to know that they can tell the story. When they

0:28:55.240 --> 0:28:58.240
<v Speaker 1>can tell the story, and there you have it right.

0:28:59.160 --> 0:29:02.400
<v Speaker 1>So I don't want to do that because it's early,

0:29:02.720 --> 0:29:03.880
<v Speaker 1>but I do have to tell you. I mean, this

0:29:03.960 --> 0:29:05.600
<v Speaker 1>is the number. This is the biggest story on the

0:29:05.640 --> 0:29:11.480
<v Speaker 1>Drudge Report right now, and it is a doozy, it

0:29:11.680 --> 0:29:15.280
<v Speaker 1>is a wow kind of story. So Ralph Northam we'll

0:29:15.280 --> 0:29:16.880
<v Speaker 1>talk about later in the show again a little bit

0:29:16.880 --> 0:29:21.200
<v Speaker 1>because he's the guy who said those comments about abortion

0:29:21.280 --> 0:29:23.480
<v Speaker 1>on that radio show where he said, you know, you'll

0:29:23.520 --> 0:29:25.440
<v Speaker 1>take a baby out, make the baby comfortable and then

0:29:25.440 --> 0:29:27.240
<v Speaker 1>decide what to do with the baby when it's outside

0:29:27.280 --> 0:29:30.320
<v Speaker 1>the womb, which to anybody who was being honest and

0:29:30.480 --> 0:29:33.920
<v Speaker 1>was listening, sounds pretty pretty much like, you know, you

0:29:33.920 --> 0:29:35.840
<v Speaker 1>make a decision whether to kill a live baby or not,

0:29:36.080 --> 0:29:38.800
<v Speaker 1>which is in fantaside, which is murder. So this is

0:29:38.880 --> 0:29:43.760
<v Speaker 1>a guy speaking about a murderer like he's speaking about

0:29:43.800 --> 0:29:45.680
<v Speaker 1>somebody getting a hip replacement, you know, like you know,

0:29:45.760 --> 0:29:47.280
<v Speaker 1>after you figure it out, you get the hip and

0:29:47.320 --> 0:29:50.440
<v Speaker 1>you're done. So he had a very bad day estray,

0:29:50.480 --> 0:29:53.800
<v Speaker 1>and he came out today and was trying to trying

0:29:53.840 --> 0:29:58.160
<v Speaker 1>to say that you know, he's that's not what he said,

0:29:58.320 --> 0:29:59.680
<v Speaker 1>or it was out of context, or you know, he

0:29:59.720 --> 0:30:01.840
<v Speaker 1>went defense, this is the governor of Virginia. We've got

0:30:01.960 --> 0:30:05.400
<v Speaker 1>a governor that Bill Crystal of the Weekly Standard and

0:30:05.400 --> 0:30:08.000
<v Speaker 1>some of the other super never trumpers were you know,

0:30:08.080 --> 0:30:10.080
<v Speaker 1>this is the kind of guy that we should be supporting,

0:30:10.120 --> 0:30:12.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, a moderate Democrat or whatever, you know, the Yeats,

0:30:14.080 --> 0:30:15.800
<v Speaker 1>that's what they were saying. There was a lot of

0:30:15.800 --> 0:30:19.840
<v Speaker 1>that going on. This story just broke today and it

0:30:19.960 --> 0:30:24.880
<v Speaker 1>came out originally with Big League Politics in Big League Politics,

0:30:24.960 --> 0:30:30.200
<v Speaker 1>and it's Ralph Northam yearbook page. Now it's the Pilot

0:30:30.240 --> 0:30:34.239
<v Speaker 1>online and it's Virginia, the Virginia Pilot rather, it has

0:30:34.280 --> 0:30:36.120
<v Speaker 1>picked this one up, so it's getting These are the

0:30:36.200 --> 0:30:41.720
<v Speaker 1>outlets that are picking this up. And it's purportedly a

0:30:41.800 --> 0:30:45.840
<v Speaker 1>yearbook page that's of Ralph Northam, not from high school,

0:30:45.840 --> 0:30:48.200
<v Speaker 1>which was what I initially thought. So he's not like

0:30:48.280 --> 0:30:51.640
<v Speaker 1>a fourteen or fifteen year old from medical school, which

0:30:51.680 --> 0:30:57.960
<v Speaker 1>means that he is. He is an adult, probably in

0:30:58.040 --> 0:31:01.720
<v Speaker 1>his you know, twenty, in his mid twenties. Let's say,

0:31:01.760 --> 0:31:04.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't know around there. But this is a page

0:31:04.600 --> 0:31:11.520
<v Speaker 1>from the nineteen eighty four, nineteen eighty four Virginia Medical

0:31:11.600 --> 0:31:20.080
<v Speaker 1>School yearbook and it says, well, I'm sorry, I forget

0:31:20.120 --> 0:31:22.680
<v Speaker 1>what it says. Well, no, it says Alma Mater, Virginia

0:31:22.720 --> 0:31:28.560
<v Speaker 1>Military Institute, Interest, et cetera, et cetera, Ralph Shearer Northam.

0:31:28.600 --> 0:31:34.360
<v Speaker 1>And on his personal yearbook page, if this is correct,

0:31:35.840 --> 0:31:41.640
<v Speaker 1>is a photo of a guy very clearly in black face.

0:31:42.760 --> 0:31:47.080
<v Speaker 1>And standing next to the person in blackface is someone

0:31:47.160 --> 0:31:52.400
<v Speaker 1>in a full ku Klux Klan uniform. I mean, you know,

0:31:52.520 --> 0:31:57.280
<v Speaker 1>the hat and the whole thing. KKK guy right there

0:31:57.840 --> 0:32:03.360
<v Speaker 1>on his page. Now, this has not been verified yet.

0:32:04.080 --> 0:32:08.240
<v Speaker 1>We don't know, you know, so, so, I mean it

0:32:08.240 --> 0:32:10.600
<v Speaker 1>looks it could it be a hoax? Yes, it could

0:32:10.680 --> 0:32:14.640
<v Speaker 1>be a hoax. Is there up CNN's running it right now. Yeah,

0:32:14.800 --> 0:32:17.959
<v Speaker 1>CNN just popped up on CNN on their app on

0:32:18.440 --> 0:32:22.520
<v Speaker 1>tv UM. So yeah, it doesn't look like a hoax

0:32:22.560 --> 0:32:26.600
<v Speaker 1>to me. Man, looks looks like looks like Ralph Northum

0:32:26.800 --> 0:32:32.320
<v Speaker 1>is about twelve hours away from resigning. Yeah. It uh,

0:32:32.440 --> 0:32:35.720
<v Speaker 1>it's a privide a little context. CNN reports that it

0:32:35.760 --> 0:32:39.520
<v Speaker 1>was obtained by a CNN affiliate w t KR, and it,

0:32:39.720 --> 0:32:41.800
<v Speaker 1>like you just said, it appears in the nineteen eighty

0:32:41.800 --> 0:32:49.000
<v Speaker 1>four yearbook for the Eastern Virginia Medical School. So wow,

0:32:51.280 --> 0:32:53.480
<v Speaker 1>Virginia is gonna have to find a new governor. I think.

0:32:53.760 --> 0:32:55.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't think now there will be people that want

0:32:55.720 --> 0:32:58.280
<v Speaker 1>to have a discussion about, you know, how long ago

0:32:58.480 --> 0:33:01.360
<v Speaker 1>was this and I'm sure give it, give it, you know,

0:33:01.440 --> 0:33:04.560
<v Speaker 1>mark my words, producer, Mike. There will be some left

0:33:04.600 --> 0:33:07.480
<v Speaker 1>wing idiot who's like, right around the time when Brett

0:33:07.560 --> 0:33:10.360
<v Speaker 1>Covenol was, you know, raping women. They'll say that, right,

0:33:10.400 --> 0:33:13.520
<v Speaker 1>they'll say, oh and you th Cavanols. Okay, right, there's

0:33:13.520 --> 0:33:16.160
<v Speaker 1>no photo of Cavanaugh doing anything, because he didn't do anything.

0:33:16.440 --> 0:33:18.400
<v Speaker 1>In fact, no one can even tell where he was

0:33:18.520 --> 0:33:21.560
<v Speaker 1>or you know, there's no evidence at all. This in

0:33:21.640 --> 0:33:25.880
<v Speaker 1>a court you'd call evidence, you know, unless somebody went

0:33:25.880 --> 0:33:29.720
<v Speaker 1>back and engaged in a very elaborate, you know, Dan

0:33:29.880 --> 0:33:34.720
<v Speaker 1>Rather style document hoax. Here, this is, this is pretty

0:33:34.800 --> 0:33:37.920
<v Speaker 1>much I think this is lights out for Northaman. He

0:33:38.000 --> 0:33:41.920
<v Speaker 1>might have had the worst one two political punch here,

0:33:41.960 --> 0:33:47.000
<v Speaker 1>the worst twenty four hours of any politician since Anthony Weener.

0:33:47.880 --> 0:33:50.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean, this is about as who of course, as

0:33:50.520 --> 0:33:52.800
<v Speaker 1>we don't ended up going to federal prison. This is

0:33:52.800 --> 0:33:55.520
<v Speaker 1>about as bad as it gets. You know, killing babies,

0:33:56.320 --> 0:34:00.280
<v Speaker 1>Ralph Northam killing babies, okay, under our law, it's not

0:34:00.320 --> 0:34:02.360
<v Speaker 1>a big deal. And oh, by the way, when I

0:34:02.400 --> 0:34:04.680
<v Speaker 1>was in medical school, not even a high school student,

0:34:04.680 --> 0:34:06.240
<v Speaker 1>that wouldn't be okay. But at least he'd say he

0:34:06.280 --> 0:34:10.520
<v Speaker 1>was really young, and maybe there's some mitigation there. Uh college,

0:34:10.600 --> 0:34:15.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, post grad student, I mean. And by the way,

0:34:15.400 --> 0:34:17.279
<v Speaker 1>people are already saying, you know, which way it's not

0:34:17.320 --> 0:34:19.160
<v Speaker 1>clear if he's in the black face or if he's

0:34:19.200 --> 0:34:22.880
<v Speaker 1>in the KKK uniform. I don't think it matters. I

0:34:22.920 --> 0:34:25.640
<v Speaker 1>don't think anyone's gonna identify one is worse than the

0:34:25.680 --> 0:34:29.239
<v Speaker 1>other for him. So I think he's Mike. What do

0:34:29.280 --> 0:34:32.799
<v Speaker 1>you think he's he toast? Can he survive this one?

0:34:32.920 --> 0:34:36.239
<v Speaker 1>I don't think so. But you know liberals have given

0:34:36.280 --> 0:34:39.560
<v Speaker 1>themselves passes on things, you know, Yeah, I mean Bird?

0:34:39.680 --> 0:34:42.360
<v Speaker 1>What's his name? A senator? Senator Robert Bird. He was

0:34:42.400 --> 0:34:45.200
<v Speaker 1>a grand Wizard of the KKK. Right, so he was

0:34:45.200 --> 0:34:50.680
<v Speaker 1>actually senior member other KKK. They became a beloved senator

0:34:50.760 --> 0:34:53.840
<v Speaker 1>from h what was it, West Virginia? H John? What

0:34:53.880 --> 0:34:57.440
<v Speaker 1>do you think this guy survived this one? Now? You

0:34:57.480 --> 0:34:58.719
<v Speaker 1>can just you can just nod your head. One of

0:34:58.760 --> 0:35:01.239
<v Speaker 1>the other. I'm not sure. How does it get into

0:35:01.239 --> 0:35:06.000
<v Speaker 1>a school yearbook? First of all, it's on his page.

0:35:06.680 --> 0:35:08.640
<v Speaker 1>You know how you picked the photos? This is like

0:35:08.719 --> 0:35:12.400
<v Speaker 1>his montage and one of his montage photios photos is

0:35:12.440 --> 0:35:15.200
<v Speaker 1>a By the way, how did say it has to

0:35:15.200 --> 0:35:18.680
<v Speaker 1>be a moderator to say this is inappropriate. That's why

0:35:18.680 --> 0:35:22.799
<v Speaker 1>I think I've been saying to Mike uh and here

0:35:22.840 --> 0:35:25.600
<v Speaker 1>that something's not right about that. It looks bad. I

0:35:25.600 --> 0:35:29.120
<v Speaker 1>saw the picture looks bad, but something's not right. And

0:35:29.480 --> 0:35:32.640
<v Speaker 1>a moderator of the yearbook would say something before that

0:35:32.640 --> 0:35:35.319
<v Speaker 1>I got into the book. Someone has to edit because

0:35:35.320 --> 0:35:37.240
<v Speaker 1>I've you know, I used to work on my yearbook.

0:35:38.040 --> 0:35:40.040
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I don't know how much editing there was

0:35:40.120 --> 0:35:43.480
<v Speaker 1>for racial sensitivity at Eastern Virginia Medical School in the

0:35:43.560 --> 0:35:45.959
<v Speaker 1>early eighties. Yeah, I don't think there was any. John.

0:35:46.000 --> 0:35:47.359
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I agree with you. But if this were

0:35:47.400 --> 0:35:49.920
<v Speaker 1>like last year, I'd say, yeah, that seems you know,

0:35:50.000 --> 0:35:53.040
<v Speaker 1>particularly egregious in terms of missing the you know, in

0:35:53.120 --> 0:35:54.960
<v Speaker 1>terms of editors that would have said, what is this

0:35:55.000 --> 0:35:58.239
<v Speaker 1>and make sure it didn't go in the yearbook. Uh,

0:35:58.280 --> 0:36:01.960
<v Speaker 1>this looks pretty bad. I think. I think Governor Northam

0:36:02.040 --> 0:36:03.520
<v Speaker 1>is not going to be a Governor Northam all that

0:36:03.640 --> 0:36:06.280
<v Speaker 1>much longer. But we'll see it. Maybe he comes out says,

0:36:06.320 --> 0:36:08.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, I didn't that's not me, that's doctorate. I

0:36:08.680 --> 0:36:11.279
<v Speaker 1>wasn't in that fall. You know, you never know. But

0:36:11.640 --> 0:36:16.239
<v Speaker 1>what a strange thing for somebody to to fabricate, if

0:36:16.280 --> 0:36:19.440
<v Speaker 1>that worth the case. So I think he's in big

0:36:19.440 --> 0:36:21.400
<v Speaker 1>I think he's in big trouble. And it also just

0:36:21.400 --> 0:36:24.239
<v Speaker 1>goes to show you, man, you know, you get you

0:36:24.360 --> 0:36:26.239
<v Speaker 1>get out there in a way where everyone all of

0:36:26.239 --> 0:36:29.279
<v Speaker 1>a sudden wants to look into your stuff. It can

0:36:29.320 --> 0:36:33.000
<v Speaker 1>find stuff. You know, in the Internet era, people find

0:36:33.040 --> 0:36:35.239
<v Speaker 1>stuff really fast. But I think this is going to

0:36:35.320 --> 0:36:38.480
<v Speaker 1>be the end of the governorship of Routh Sheer Northam.

0:36:40.120 --> 0:36:43.640
<v Speaker 1>Morning Coffee is an American institution. That's why when it

0:36:43.680 --> 0:36:46.520
<v Speaker 1>comes to kicking off my day the right way, I

0:36:46.640 --> 0:36:51.840
<v Speaker 1>reached for one and only one American coffee, Black Rifle Coffee.

0:36:51.840 --> 0:36:54.480
<v Speaker 1>I drink it every morning and probably the afternoons too,

0:36:54.560 --> 0:36:56.200
<v Speaker 1>especially if I need to get through a long day.

<v Speaker 1>dot com slash Buck. Let's be really clear, capitalism without

0:37:45.200 --> 0:37:50.480
<v Speaker 1>rules is theft. Encouraging companies to build their business models

0:37:50.560 --> 0:37:54.840
<v Speaker 1>on cheating people. That's not capitalism. That's not competition in

0:37:54.880 --> 0:37:59.840
<v Speaker 1>the marketplace. That's not producing consumer surplus. So what I

0:38:00.160 --> 0:38:06.160
<v Speaker 1>believe is capitalism with serious rules, and that means rules

0:38:06.400 --> 0:38:11.520
<v Speaker 1>where everybody gets chance to play. Elizabeth Warren is telling

0:38:11.520 --> 0:38:15.800
<v Speaker 1>you where the Democrats really are on this. It's important

0:38:15.840 --> 0:38:19.800
<v Speaker 1>to heed what she is saying. This is going to

0:38:19.880 --> 0:38:23.200
<v Speaker 1>be a central fight, perhaps the central fight of the

0:38:23.239 --> 0:38:25.959
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty election. We're getting a preview of it right now.

0:38:27.120 --> 0:38:31.400
<v Speaker 1>She's saying here is that capitalism without rules is theft.

0:38:32.520 --> 0:38:34.880
<v Speaker 1>Now that's a giant straw man. You know this, right,

0:38:35.440 --> 0:38:38.440
<v Speaker 1>We have a tremendous amount of rules in our system

0:38:38.480 --> 0:38:41.080
<v Speaker 1>of capitalism in this country. We have so many rules.

0:38:42.440 --> 0:38:45.919
<v Speaker 1>But what she's saying is that they want to rewrite

0:38:45.960 --> 0:38:48.759
<v Speaker 1>the rules of capitalism, and they want to do it

0:38:49.200 --> 0:38:51.680
<v Speaker 1>by suggesting that if you don't agree with them, then

0:38:51.680 --> 0:38:56.320
<v Speaker 1>you are supporting theft. You know, this is a sort

0:38:56.360 --> 0:39:00.400
<v Speaker 1>of corollary or you know, this is a now aligus

0:39:00.640 --> 0:39:03.480
<v Speaker 1>in some way to behind every great fortune is a

0:39:03.520 --> 0:39:06.520
<v Speaker 1>great theft. You know, she believes that she believes that

0:39:06.600 --> 0:39:13.400
<v Speaker 1>people who are very successful financially, people are very successful

0:39:13.440 --> 0:39:20.080
<v Speaker 1>financially must have done so through illicit exploitation of other people.

0:39:20.520 --> 0:39:22.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, there must have been some laws that they broke.

0:39:22.800 --> 0:39:26.840
<v Speaker 1>And here's the thing. If they didn't break laws, the

0:39:26.960 --> 0:39:32.239
<v Speaker 1>problem is that we don't have strong enough laws for

0:39:32.280 --> 0:39:34.840
<v Speaker 1>them to break. So they're gonna want to change this.

0:39:34.960 --> 0:39:39.799
<v Speaker 1>Remember she was somebody over at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau,

0:39:39.960 --> 0:39:42.000
<v Speaker 1>which is an agency that when Trump came in, they

0:39:42.040 --> 0:39:45.000
<v Speaker 1>basically said, sorry, we don't care that you're the commander

0:39:45.000 --> 0:39:46.680
<v Speaker 1>in chief and you're the head of the executive branch.

0:39:47.080 --> 0:39:49.480
<v Speaker 1>We're kind of outside of your purview, but we're still

0:39:49.480 --> 0:39:51.640
<v Speaker 1>a federal government agency. It's like, that's not how this

0:39:51.760 --> 0:39:55.880
<v Speaker 1>is supposed to work. But they tried to just burrow

0:39:56.040 --> 0:39:58.880
<v Speaker 1>in a lot. There's a lot of deep state burrowing

0:39:58.920 --> 0:40:01.000
<v Speaker 1>that has occurred at different all agencies. I can talk

0:40:01.000 --> 0:40:05.359
<v Speaker 1>to you about that maybe another time. But capitalism without

0:40:05.400 --> 0:40:10.120
<v Speaker 1>rules is theft serious rules. Everyone gets a chance to play.

0:40:11.320 --> 0:40:14.960
<v Speaker 1>There's very little here in terms of specifics, there's very

0:40:14.960 --> 0:40:18.759
<v Speaker 1>little that the Democrats that Warren and her ilk are

0:40:18.760 --> 0:40:21.520
<v Speaker 1>going to provide you with other than taxing the rich,

0:40:22.040 --> 0:40:26.399
<v Speaker 1>taxing the billionaires, right, or as Bernie Sanders famous used

0:40:26.440 --> 0:40:31.800
<v Speaker 1>to say, the millionaires and the billions. Elizaeth Warren's a millionaire.

0:40:32.200 --> 0:40:34.840
<v Speaker 1>Bernie Sanders is definitely worth somewhere in the seven figures.

0:40:34.840 --> 0:40:38.279
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what. He's got three houses, so the

0:40:38.320 --> 0:40:41.640
<v Speaker 1>ottomillion is not this one. This one does not count.

0:40:43.440 --> 0:40:46.279
<v Speaker 1>That's what they offer you. They tell you that if

0:40:46.640 --> 0:40:51.160
<v Speaker 1>only we have stricter rules, only we do more to

0:40:52.160 --> 0:40:56.640
<v Speaker 1>make life well a little more difficult for very rich people,

0:40:56.680 --> 0:40:58.600
<v Speaker 1>than your life will mean a lot easier. And that's

0:40:58.920 --> 0:41:04.040
<v Speaker 1>just not true. It is not the case. It is

0:41:04.080 --> 0:41:06.040
<v Speaker 1>not the case that your life will be easier, that

0:41:06.120 --> 0:41:09.440
<v Speaker 1>you will be wealthier if there are these rules and restrictions.

0:41:09.800 --> 0:41:13.080
<v Speaker 1>Keep in mind that this is where we have to

0:41:13.080 --> 0:41:18.200
<v Speaker 1>do a lot of re educating of the American people,

0:41:18.280 --> 0:41:20.839
<v Speaker 1>because the media goes along with this stuff like here,

0:41:20.920 --> 0:41:24.160
<v Speaker 1>here's the narrative. I'll give you two narratives about where

0:41:24.160 --> 0:41:26.440
<v Speaker 1>capitalism has failed in them. What the truth of them is, right,

0:41:26.880 --> 0:41:30.360
<v Speaker 1>The narrative of the financial crisis of two thousand and

0:41:30.400 --> 0:41:36.680
<v Speaker 1>eight in shorthand Walls Street sold houses to people with

0:41:36.840 --> 0:41:39.760
<v Speaker 1>fine print that they couldn't understand, that they couldn't afford,

0:41:40.200 --> 0:41:45.640
<v Speaker 1>and then took those obligations, took those debts and essentially

0:41:45.760 --> 0:41:50.480
<v Speaker 1>merged them all together and sold them to each other,

0:41:50.680 --> 0:41:54.319
<v Speaker 1>sold them to other other financial entities. And they did this,

0:41:54.400 --> 0:41:57.719
<v Speaker 1>and then they sold insurance on the sales of those,

0:41:57.760 --> 0:41:59.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, credit to fault swapped and all that. Okay,

0:41:59.640 --> 0:42:04.760
<v Speaker 1>that's so essentially Wall Street greed almost destroyed the entire economy.

0:42:04.880 --> 0:42:09.399
<v Speaker 1>The real story, which a lot of people just don't

0:42:09.440 --> 0:42:11.400
<v Speaker 1>seem to care about or aren't going to care about,

0:42:11.400 --> 0:42:15.640
<v Speaker 1>the real story is that over a series of decades,

0:42:17.080 --> 0:42:21.440
<v Speaker 1>federal laws were passed, and these laws were also supported

0:42:22.000 --> 0:42:27.960
<v Speaker 1>by the enormous and very expensive federal quasi federal agencies

0:42:27.960 --> 0:42:31.000
<v Speaker 1>of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mack. Federal laws were passed

0:42:31.000 --> 0:42:34.040
<v Speaker 1>that banks had to lend to people even if they

0:42:34.080 --> 0:42:38.360
<v Speaker 1>had bad credit. This was because there was a disproportionate

0:42:38.400 --> 0:42:43.880
<v Speaker 1>effect on particularly the African American community, of not getting

0:42:43.920 --> 0:42:47.560
<v Speaker 1>credit right. So black people were not being given loans

0:42:47.960 --> 0:42:52.319
<v Speaker 1>based on their FICO scores by the banks. And they

0:42:52.360 --> 0:42:54.920
<v Speaker 1>called it redlining, and I'm sure there are were discriminatory

0:42:55.040 --> 0:42:58.520
<v Speaker 1>practices too, but it went from no discrimination and lending

0:42:58.560 --> 0:43:01.000
<v Speaker 1>to it doesn't matter if you can show that this

0:43:01.040 --> 0:43:03.600
<v Speaker 1>person is a bad bet, you have to lend to

0:43:03.640 --> 0:43:06.120
<v Speaker 1>them if they are a minority, or else we're going

0:43:06.160 --> 0:43:08.960
<v Speaker 1>to come after you. And the Clinton administration, for example,

0:43:09.000 --> 0:43:12.160
<v Speaker 1>made a big deal of going after banks and suing

0:43:12.680 --> 0:43:17.600
<v Speaker 1>banks because they were not lending sufficiently to African American lenders.

0:43:18.440 --> 0:43:20.480
<v Speaker 1>But then it expanded because once you've gotten rid of

0:43:20.480 --> 0:43:22.520
<v Speaker 1>FYCO scores for some people, it's easier to get rhythm

0:43:22.520 --> 0:43:25.720
<v Speaker 1>for more people. Right. And then we had this bipartisan

0:43:25.800 --> 0:43:30.200
<v Speaker 1>consensus and the government pushing this if everybody should own

0:43:30.440 --> 0:43:33.000
<v Speaker 1>we have a homeownerships aside, and Bush administration bought into it.

0:43:33.080 --> 0:43:35.719
<v Speaker 1>So we get rid of the lending standards. And then

0:43:35.719 --> 0:43:38.360
<v Speaker 1>we're told everybody should own a home, and then everybody

0:43:38.400 --> 0:43:41.399
<v Speaker 1>should put it on credit. And then Wall Street comes

0:43:41.400 --> 0:43:42.719
<v Speaker 1>in and says, well, we got all this credit that's

0:43:42.760 --> 0:43:45.600
<v Speaker 1>backed by the federal government. You know, we can't lose.

0:43:46.480 --> 0:43:47.880
<v Speaker 1>And then when they were about to lose and they

0:43:47.880 --> 0:43:49.560
<v Speaker 1>got bailed out by the government. But there was a

0:43:49.560 --> 0:43:53.600
<v Speaker 1>lot of social justice and social engineering and all that

0:43:53.719 --> 0:43:55.440
<v Speaker 1>stuff in the run up to this, and that just

0:43:55.440 --> 0:43:58.440
<v Speaker 1>gets left out of the discussion. So you know, at

0:43:58.480 --> 0:44:01.360
<v Speaker 1>the very end of this you get the Financial Protection Bureau,

0:44:01.400 --> 0:44:04.000
<v Speaker 1>which is just saying, oh, you know there's illegal and

0:44:04.040 --> 0:44:07.160
<v Speaker 1>bad lending practice. Yes, there are badly bad lending practices.

0:44:07.840 --> 0:44:11.000
<v Speaker 1>The government has been dictating lending practices for decades. The

0:44:11.040 --> 0:44:14.160
<v Speaker 1>Community Reinvestment Act stretches back to I think the nineteen sixties,

0:44:14.160 --> 0:44:15.839
<v Speaker 1>which was the start of this idea that you have

0:44:16.000 --> 0:44:18.880
<v Speaker 1>to lend into certain neighborhoods if you're a bank, you

0:44:18.960 --> 0:44:21.680
<v Speaker 1>have to or else the government will sue you, or

0:44:21.719 --> 0:44:25.080
<v Speaker 1>discrimination and saying well, this person, they have a history

0:44:25.120 --> 0:44:27.200
<v Speaker 1>of not paying their bills, I don't want to lend them. Sorry,

0:44:27.280 --> 0:44:31.680
<v Speaker 1>that's racist. That's the very short version of that much

0:44:31.719 --> 0:44:34.960
<v Speaker 1>longer story. And then on healthcare, which we could do

0:44:35.040 --> 0:44:39.000
<v Speaker 1>a similar thing on healthcare. Truth about healthcare is that,

0:44:39.680 --> 0:44:41.520
<v Speaker 1>as we talked to Ovic Roy about this earlier in

0:44:41.520 --> 0:44:48.719
<v Speaker 1>the week, almost half almost half of healthcare spending already

0:44:49.520 --> 0:44:52.960
<v Speaker 1>is government healthcare spending in some way, and the government

0:44:53.600 --> 0:44:57.120
<v Speaker 1>is involved in hospital probably way. Hospitals are scams. Go

0:44:57.200 --> 0:45:00.480
<v Speaker 1>into an emergency room sometime they take your food pressure

0:45:00.480 --> 0:45:02.320
<v Speaker 1>to charge you a thousand dollars. I'm not even kidding.

0:45:02.840 --> 0:45:07.120
<v Speaker 1>It's crazy. Hospitals are scams. Only go to a hospital

0:45:07.120 --> 0:45:10.080
<v Speaker 1>if you have literally no choice, there's no other choice.

0:45:10.840 --> 0:45:13.919
<v Speaker 1>But that's government regulation, right, I mean, there's so much

0:45:13.960 --> 0:45:17.040
<v Speaker 1>government regulation that goes through that process. But we're told

0:45:17.080 --> 0:45:20.080
<v Speaker 1>that it's unfair because of the greedy capitalists at the top. No,

0:45:20.200 --> 0:45:24.120
<v Speaker 1>what makes it unfair are the market distortions that are created,

0:45:24.200 --> 0:45:27.920
<v Speaker 1>yes by some special interests and pharmaceutical companies, but also

0:45:27.960 --> 0:45:31.000
<v Speaker 1>by the government thinking that it's good at helping to

0:45:31.040 --> 0:45:36.320
<v Speaker 1>set prices, that it's good at making determinations about how

0:45:36.920 --> 0:45:40.080
<v Speaker 1>private industry, in this case, private healthcare should function. It

0:45:40.200 --> 0:45:43.200
<v Speaker 1>is not good at that. So, you know what, We're

0:45:43.239 --> 0:45:45.879
<v Speaker 1>going to be told stories about the failures of capitalism

0:45:46.200 --> 0:45:49.240
<v Speaker 1>that are often and these are stories that if people

0:45:49.280 --> 0:45:50.960
<v Speaker 1>believe them, it could change the future of this country

0:45:50.960 --> 0:45:54.439
<v Speaker 1>because they're gonna put wackos like Warren in charge. We

0:45:54.520 --> 0:45:57.720
<v Speaker 1>need to know and spread the word about the truth,

0:45:58.440 --> 0:46:01.800
<v Speaker 1>which is that there are already as a tremendous amount

0:46:01.840 --> 0:46:05.000
<v Speaker 1>of regulation of law in our capitalist system. We do

0:46:05.080 --> 0:46:07.480
<v Speaker 1>not have a free market. So if we're going to

0:46:07.560 --> 0:46:10.080
<v Speaker 1>identify failures. We can't just say it's a failure of

0:46:10.120 --> 0:46:13.680
<v Speaker 1>the free market. It's often a failure of government intervention

0:46:13.719 --> 0:46:17.040
<v Speaker 1>in the market that creates the distortion that's then exploited

0:46:17.040 --> 0:46:20.520
<v Speaker 1>by special interests who then maintain that by by putting

0:46:20.560 --> 0:46:24.960
<v Speaker 1>money in the pockets of politicians. But it's a lot

0:46:25.000 --> 0:46:26.560
<v Speaker 1>easier to say, yeah, the big me and rich people

0:46:26.600 --> 0:46:28.200
<v Speaker 1>are the problem. It is a lot. I will say

0:46:28.239 --> 0:46:31.239
<v Speaker 1>it's a lot easier, and Democrats will do that. They

0:46:31.280 --> 0:46:33.960
<v Speaker 1>will go that route. They will say that it's all

0:46:33.960 --> 0:46:38.480
<v Speaker 1>about things being a lot easier for them, and that

0:46:38.640 --> 0:46:42.839
<v Speaker 1>is my expectation. So we have a whole lot more

0:46:42.840 --> 0:46:46.880
<v Speaker 1>coming up. Team stay with me. Hiring can be tough

0:46:47.000 --> 0:46:49.560
<v Speaker 1>and it can take a lot of time. You don't

0:46:49.600 --> 0:46:52.600
<v Speaker 1>want to burn up your time trying to find the

0:46:52.600 --> 0:46:55.160
<v Speaker 1>best resumes. I got a better idea. Why don't you

0:46:55.200 --> 0:46:59.000
<v Speaker 1>do things the right way, the smart way. That's why

0:46:59.200 --> 0:47:02.279
<v Speaker 1>you should go to zip recruiter, dot com, slash buck.

0:47:02.400 --> 0:47:06.799
<v Speaker 1>Unlike other job sites, zip recruiter finds qualified candidates for you.

0:47:07.160 --> 0:47:10.120

<v Speaker 1>of resumes and identify the people with the right skills, education,

0:47:13.640 --> 0:47:17.560
<v Speaker 1>and experience and actively invite them to apply to your

0:47:17.640 --> 0:47:20.040
<v Speaker 1>job opening. So this way you're going to get qualified

0:47:20.080 --> 0:47:24.000

<v Speaker 1>dot com slash buck again one more time, zip recruiter

0:47:43.680 --> 0:47:46.560
<v Speaker 1>dot com slash buck because zip recruiter is the smartest

0:47:46.600 --> 0:47:49.800
<v Speaker 1>way to hire. I think all of us know is

0:47:49.840 --> 0:47:52.600
<v Speaker 1>that so many Americans are losing faith in this country's

0:47:52.640 --> 0:47:54.919
<v Speaker 1>ability to work for them. People are feeling left out,

0:47:55.040 --> 0:47:57.200
<v Speaker 1>left behind, and I think a lot of folks will

0:47:57.200 --> 0:47:58.960
<v Speaker 1>begin the field. But the forces that are tearing us

0:47:58.960 --> 0:48:01.600
<v Speaker 1>apart in this country are stronger than the forces that

0:48:01.800 --> 0:48:04.359
<v Speaker 1>tie us together. I don't believe that, and so I'm

0:48:04.440 --> 0:48:07.720
<v Speaker 1>running to restore our sense of common purpose, to focus

0:48:07.760 --> 0:48:10.120
<v Speaker 1>on the common pain that we have all over this country.

0:48:10.360 --> 0:48:11.759
<v Speaker 1>My record, I think when I have a chance to

0:48:11.760 --> 0:48:14.080
<v Speaker 1>put it before people, they're going to see a very

0:48:14.120 --> 0:48:19.040
<v Speaker 1>different sort of not usual path in politics. And where

0:48:19.080 --> 0:48:20.880
<v Speaker 1>I live. You know, I still live in the central

0:48:20.880 --> 0:48:23.839
<v Speaker 1>ward of Newark, New Jersey. The only senator that goes

0:48:23.880 --> 0:48:26.480
<v Speaker 1>home to a community that's you know, still a low

0:48:26.520 --> 0:48:32.240
<v Speaker 1>income community, inner city community. We got Corey Booker throwing

0:48:32.320 --> 0:48:34.960
<v Speaker 1>his hat in the ring for twenty twenty as we

0:48:35.000 --> 0:48:37.919
<v Speaker 1>all knew he would. I even said he would last week.

0:48:37.960 --> 0:48:42.120
<v Speaker 1>But that's not a prediction, it's it's obvious. Corey Booker

0:48:42.160 --> 0:48:44.760
<v Speaker 1>now officially wants to be the president the United States. Okay,

0:48:44.840 --> 0:48:48.759
<v Speaker 1>first of all, notice how he positions himself. And I

0:48:48.840 --> 0:48:54.280
<v Speaker 1>know that this is all all the tradecraft of the politico,

0:48:54.520 --> 0:48:56.799
<v Speaker 1>but you know, he comes out and he's talking about

0:48:56.840 --> 0:49:02.160
<v Speaker 1>the shared concerns, shared problems. He wants to run as

0:49:02.280 --> 0:49:07.759
<v Speaker 1>the bipartisan moderate Democrat guy. He wants to run as

0:49:07.840 --> 0:49:13.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, I all feel your pain, and I'll fix

0:49:13.320 --> 0:49:18.120
<v Speaker 1>it if you give me tremendous power. You know, that's

0:49:18.120 --> 0:49:20.640
<v Speaker 1>what he's saying. You know, that's what he's saying. He's

0:49:20.640 --> 0:49:23.080
<v Speaker 1>saying he will feel, he will feel your he already

0:49:23.080 --> 0:49:24.680
<v Speaker 1>feels your pain, and in fact, he'll try to make

0:49:24.719 --> 0:49:26.920
<v Speaker 1>the pain go away if you just make him president

0:49:27.000 --> 0:49:30.640
<v Speaker 1>of the United States, So he sees his lane in

0:49:30.640 --> 0:49:34.680
<v Speaker 1>this whole thing. Right, You got you know Warren, who

0:49:34.719 --> 0:49:39.920
<v Speaker 1>apologize you see that apologize the Cherokee nation today. So

0:49:40.320 --> 0:49:43.040
<v Speaker 1>she so she's a fraud. So we now now she's

0:49:43.040 --> 0:49:45.160
<v Speaker 1>a you know, it's like you don't apologize for murdering

0:49:45.160 --> 0:49:47.760
<v Speaker 1>somebody unless you murdered somebody. You know, she committed a fraud.

0:49:47.880 --> 0:49:51.640
<v Speaker 1>So this is pretty clear she's a fraud. Fine, at

0:49:51.719 --> 0:49:54.160
<v Speaker 1>least she did say sorry. Do we think she's really sorry?

0:49:54.280 --> 0:49:55.759
<v Speaker 1>Do you think she just got caught? I'll leave that

0:49:55.840 --> 0:50:00.279
<v Speaker 1>to you. She did release those DNA results, so that's

0:50:00.320 --> 0:50:02.439
<v Speaker 1>something that somebody would have to explain how you could

0:50:02.520 --> 0:50:05.560
<v Speaker 1>think that that's a good idea. But she did, you know,

0:50:05.600 --> 0:50:10.920
<v Speaker 1>she did. She released him. So she's now obviously running

0:50:10.960 --> 0:50:15.040
<v Speaker 1>as the female Bernie Sanders, or maybe Bernie Sanders is

0:50:15.080 --> 0:50:18.920
<v Speaker 1>running as the mail Elizabeth Warren. Really you know, hey,

0:50:19.000 --> 0:50:21.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm not trying to man explain over here. They're both

0:50:21.200 --> 0:50:25.000
<v Speaker 1>in nightmare exactly, or Mike explain. Perhaps I've seen I've

0:50:25.000 --> 0:50:29.680
<v Speaker 1>seen how fights do you get? Uh? So you got

0:50:29.880 --> 0:50:32.560
<v Speaker 1>these democrats that are lining up some of their different

0:50:33.239 --> 0:50:37.480
<v Speaker 1>some of their different pathways and their their version of

0:50:37.800 --> 0:50:41.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, the Republican primary from twenty sixteen, where you're

0:50:41.960 --> 0:50:44.160
<v Speaker 1>gonna have a lot of people, so they have to

0:50:44.200 --> 0:50:48.879
<v Speaker 1>differentiate themselves. So Corey Booker differentiates himself from the eyes

0:50:48.920 --> 0:50:50.560
<v Speaker 1>of being that you know, I'm just I'm just a

0:50:50.600 --> 0:50:52.640
<v Speaker 1>guy who's just gonna like bring everyone together, and I

0:50:52.719 --> 0:50:54.239
<v Speaker 1>just want everyone to be friends, and I just want

0:50:54.239 --> 0:50:59.080
<v Speaker 1>to fix things. And okay, fine, there's a little problem

0:50:59.080 --> 0:51:02.359
<v Speaker 1>though with that. First of all, you will recall just

0:51:02.440 --> 0:51:07.640
<v Speaker 1>this past summer, Corey Booker was the guy who decided

0:51:07.680 --> 0:51:12.359
<v Speaker 1>to be mister tough street fighter on the political beat.

0:51:12.920 --> 0:51:18.080
<v Speaker 1>Play it. I openly invite and accept the consequences of

0:51:18.200 --> 0:51:21.120
<v Speaker 1>my team releasing that email right now, and I'm releasing

0:51:21.160 --> 0:51:25.279
<v Speaker 1>it to expose a number one. The emails are being

0:51:25.280 --> 0:51:31.239
<v Speaker 1>withheld from the public have nothing to do with national security. Now.

0:51:31.280 --> 0:51:33.480
<v Speaker 1>I appreciate the comments of my colleagues. This is about

0:51:33.520 --> 0:51:35.799
<v Speaker 1>the closest I'll probably ever have in my life to

0:51:35.840 --> 0:51:40.440
<v Speaker 1>an I Am Spartacus moment. Pretty far from Spartacus, as

0:51:40.480 --> 0:51:43.200
<v Speaker 1>we all know. You know what he should do, though,

0:51:43.200 --> 0:51:47.080
<v Speaker 1>and I'm serious, he should show up at a at

0:51:47.120 --> 0:51:51.239
<v Speaker 1>like a low key campaign event wearing like full on

0:51:51.800 --> 0:51:56.960
<v Speaker 1>Spartacus regalia, you know, with like with the sword and

0:51:57.160 --> 0:51:59.560
<v Speaker 1>the whole, the whole get up. You know, he should

0:51:59.560 --> 0:52:01.799
<v Speaker 1>show up and lean into it a little bit. That

0:52:01.840 --> 0:52:04.359
<v Speaker 1>would make it go away. I think, you know, if

0:52:04.360 --> 0:52:07.160
<v Speaker 1>he were like, yeah, whatever I said it, that'd be

0:52:07.200 --> 0:52:09.000
<v Speaker 1>kind of funny. It can't be. He can't give a

0:52:09.040 --> 0:52:11.799
<v Speaker 1>speech stress like that, although maybe he would. But if

0:52:11.800 --> 0:52:14.799
<v Speaker 1>he showed up with the sandals and the grieves and

0:52:14.840 --> 0:52:18.600
<v Speaker 1>the chess play and the whole thing, what do you think? Yeah,

0:52:18.800 --> 0:52:21.200
<v Speaker 1>that would require a sense of humor, which he does

0:52:21.239 --> 0:52:24.479
<v Speaker 1>not happen, right, Nor do any Democrats that I know. So, Yeah,

0:52:24.520 --> 0:52:27.520
<v Speaker 1>Democrat politicians not funny. It is true, they're not funny.

0:52:27.520 --> 0:52:29.080
<v Speaker 1>Can I tell you something that doesn't that it's kind

0:52:29.120 --> 0:52:33.680
<v Speaker 1>of funny. I've heard this from a very well known,

0:52:33.760 --> 0:52:35.839
<v Speaker 1>uh well, I should say very well known, a very

0:52:35.840 --> 0:52:41.160
<v Speaker 1>connected DC insider and a connected Capitol Hill staffer. Mitch

0:52:41.280 --> 0:52:45.480
<v Speaker 1>McConnell loves all the cocaine Mitch stuff. He thinks it

0:52:45.560 --> 0:52:49.080
<v Speaker 1>is hilarious. It's great. Like people go into his office

0:52:49.080 --> 0:52:50.759
<v Speaker 1>and give him like that. They'll give him a print

0:52:50.760 --> 0:52:53.719
<v Speaker 1>out of an article, so he's like her cocaine may

0:52:54.320 --> 0:52:58.560
<v Speaker 1>he loves it. Multiple independent sources have told me Mitch

0:52:58.640 --> 0:53:01.879
<v Speaker 1>McConnell thinks cocaine. Mitch hilarious. Yeah, do you want to laugh?

0:53:01.920 --> 0:53:04.600
<v Speaker 1>You want to be happy? Find it conservative exactly. So

0:53:05.120 --> 0:53:08.440
<v Speaker 1>it's true. It's true. We do have the funnier we

0:53:08.520 --> 0:53:10.960
<v Speaker 1>do have the funnier politicians. I have to say, but

0:53:11.080 --> 0:53:14.960
<v Speaker 1>so so Corey Booker. He is most well known from

0:53:14.960 --> 0:53:16.640
<v Speaker 1>at least over the last year. For that, I'm spartic

0:53:16.680 --> 0:53:20.080
<v Speaker 1>this moment. But also I'm never going to forget that

0:53:20.160 --> 0:53:22.759
<v Speaker 1>while he tries to be mister Horne or I just

0:53:22.840 --> 0:53:24.200
<v Speaker 1>I just want everyone to be friends, and I just

0:53:24.239 --> 0:53:26.320
<v Speaker 1>want to get along. I just want to fix problems

0:53:26.360 --> 0:53:27.799
<v Speaker 1>and I want to I want to solve the pain

0:53:27.880 --> 0:53:32.000
<v Speaker 1>and all this stuff, you know. While while he promotes

0:53:32.080 --> 0:53:35.759
<v Speaker 1>himself as that right now, I am not going to

0:53:35.840 --> 0:53:42.080
<v Speaker 1>forget anytime soon that he is also the guy who,

0:53:43.040 --> 0:53:46.520
<v Speaker 1>six months ago or so or whatever it was, was

0:53:46.640 --> 0:53:50.240
<v Speaker 1>part of the effort to not just destroy Brett Kavanaugh

0:53:50.320 --> 0:53:51.960
<v Speaker 1>in front of his wife and children, one of the

0:53:52.080 --> 0:53:55.759
<v Speaker 1>ugliest things I've ever seen in American politics, and in

0:53:55.800 --> 0:53:57.680
<v Speaker 1>front of tens of millions of people who were watching

0:53:57.719 --> 0:54:01.840
<v Speaker 1>that that hearing. He was part of that effort which

0:54:02.080 --> 0:54:06.400
<v Speaker 1>no person of honor or decency could have been a

0:54:06.480 --> 0:54:10.600
<v Speaker 1>part of. Okay, these women were lying. The final one,

0:54:10.840 --> 0:54:13.920
<v Speaker 1>Thank thank heaven, she actually came out with those accusations

0:54:13.960 --> 0:54:17.920
<v Speaker 1>because she was just a clear loon. I mean, somebody

0:54:17.960 --> 0:54:21.800
<v Speaker 1>who was was deranged and just making stuff up for attention.

0:54:22.000 --> 0:54:25.239
<v Speaker 1>I mean, the Democrats and the media were willing to

0:54:25.239 --> 0:54:29.120
<v Speaker 1>put people out there as truth tellers who were about

0:54:29.160 --> 0:54:32.920
<v Speaker 1>as credible as the person wandering around with a big

0:54:32.960 --> 0:54:36.880
<v Speaker 1>piece of cardboard sticking out of the shopping cart that says,

0:54:37.520 --> 0:54:40.239
<v Speaker 1>you know, John three sixteen or whatever, why is it

0:54:40.280 --> 0:54:42.920
<v Speaker 1>always John three sixteen? By the way, You know, I

0:54:42.920 --> 0:54:44.719
<v Speaker 1>don't know. I remember looking at up once and I

0:54:44.760 --> 0:54:46.040
<v Speaker 1>was a kid because I was like, what is it?

0:54:46.080 --> 0:54:47.920
<v Speaker 1>And it didn't make sense to me? You know, I

0:54:48.000 --> 0:54:50.359
<v Speaker 1>can't now. My curiosity has got the best of me.

0:54:50.440 --> 0:54:52.840
<v Speaker 1>And people right now are already without looking it up

0:54:52.840 --> 0:54:56.319
<v Speaker 1>because they're better at this than I am. For God

0:54:56.400 --> 0:54:58.959
<v Speaker 1>so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son,

0:54:59.480 --> 0:55:01.800
<v Speaker 1>that who's ever believe it than him should not perish

0:55:01.800 --> 0:55:04.719
<v Speaker 1>but have everlasting life. For God loved the world in

0:55:04.760 --> 0:55:07.239
<v Speaker 1>this way, he gave his one and only son, so

0:55:07.320 --> 0:55:09.120
<v Speaker 1>that everyone who believes in him will not perish but

0:55:09.200 --> 0:55:12.880
<v Speaker 1>have eternal life. Well that's a great Bible verse. Why

0:55:12.960 --> 0:55:16.480
<v Speaker 1>why do I people? Why do people at football games

0:55:16.480 --> 0:55:18.120
<v Speaker 1>and crazy people in the street and hold up John

0:55:18.120 --> 0:55:20.560
<v Speaker 1>three sixteen posters? Am I missing something? How did this

0:55:20.640 --> 0:55:24.520
<v Speaker 1>become a meme? A meme before there were memes? Yeah,

0:55:25.840 --> 0:55:28.040
<v Speaker 1>it's been popular sports culture forever. Right, it's been popular

0:55:28.120 --> 0:55:32.880
<v Speaker 1>sports culture. So I don't get it. But the Kavanaugh hearing,

0:55:33.800 --> 0:55:38.480
<v Speaker 1>the Kavanaugh hearing told us who Corey Booker really was.

0:55:39.000 --> 0:55:42.720
<v Speaker 1>The Kavanaugh hearing made it clear to us that Corey

0:55:42.760 --> 0:55:48.720
<v Speaker 1>Booker is a person of no integrity or decency or honesty.

0:55:49.239 --> 0:55:52.120
<v Speaker 1>He's just another politician who will do whatever he wants.

0:55:52.320 --> 0:55:56.759
<v Speaker 1>I will never forgive or forget the Senate Democrats who

0:55:56.760 --> 0:56:02.520
<v Speaker 1>were part of that callavaied ritualized torture session of a

0:56:02.560 --> 0:56:05.840
<v Speaker 1>good man who is now thankful a Supreme Court justice.

0:56:06.000 --> 0:56:07.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to let that go. I'm not going

0:56:07.719 --> 0:56:11.959
<v Speaker 1>to let that pass. We saw who they were that day,

0:56:12.040 --> 0:56:16.719
<v Speaker 1>and we should never ever forget it. I certainly am

0:56:16.760 --> 0:56:19.280
<v Speaker 1>not going to any time. So you know, Corey Booker

0:56:19.360 --> 0:56:24.200
<v Speaker 1>is running whoop d He just here's an early prediction

0:56:24.760 --> 0:56:28.759
<v Speaker 1>he just doesn't have it. He just doesn't have it.

0:56:29.000 --> 0:56:32.800
<v Speaker 1>You knows a little. He's a little whimpy, a little boring,

0:56:33.400 --> 0:56:37.120
<v Speaker 1>not really very charismatic. It's just not gonna work. Not

0:56:37.200 --> 0:56:41.000
<v Speaker 1>gonna work. And I think that I don't even think

0:56:41.000 --> 0:56:43.720
<v Speaker 1>he'll last that far into the primary. That's that's my prediction.

0:56:43.760 --> 0:56:45.480
<v Speaker 1>So we can always go back and visit that, and

0:56:45.520 --> 0:56:48.800
<v Speaker 1>that's what we'll do. Team. I've got much more show

0:56:48.960 --> 0:56:53.400
<v Speaker 1>en route. Stay with me. One of the things we're considering, obviously,

0:56:53.520 --> 0:56:56.080
<v Speaker 1>is a national emergency, and it is it's an invasion

0:56:56.080 --> 0:56:58.920
<v Speaker 1>of our country of not only people, not only gangs

0:56:58.920 --> 0:57:02.920
<v Speaker 1>and criminals and human traffickers. It's an invasion of drugs

0:57:03.080 --> 0:57:06.720
<v Speaker 1>into our country. It's an invasion like you've never seen before.

0:57:06.920 --> 0:57:10.400
<v Speaker 1>You talk about heroin, ninety percent of the heroin coming

0:57:10.400 --> 0:57:13.880
<v Speaker 1>into our country comes in through the southern border. We

0:57:13.960 --> 0:57:16.200
<v Speaker 1>can stop so much of that. And I'll tell you this,

0:57:17.240 --> 0:57:20.800
<v Speaker 1>if we build a proper barrier with all of the technology,

0:57:20.880 --> 0:57:23.160
<v Speaker 1>which only really works with the barrier, but if we

0:57:23.280 --> 0:57:28.640
<v Speaker 1>build a proper barrier with great technology too, we will

0:57:28.680 --> 0:57:32.000
<v Speaker 1>see crime throughout the United States go down in percentages

0:57:32.040 --> 0:57:34.800
<v Speaker 1>that we've never seen before. It'll be an amazing thing

0:57:35.040 --> 0:57:38.440
<v Speaker 1>because so much of it comes through the southern border.

0:57:39.440 --> 0:57:43.120
<v Speaker 1>How could it not be considered a crisis when most

0:57:43.160 --> 0:57:46.120
<v Speaker 1>of the drugs coming into this country that are killing

0:57:46.880 --> 0:57:50.960
<v Speaker 1>seventy thousand people a year are coming across our southern border.

0:57:52.520 --> 0:57:55.560
<v Speaker 1>Take this one down to basics. Look at this one

0:57:56.000 --> 0:58:00.440
<v Speaker 1>without all the political heat and the posturing and the demagogue,

0:57:59.880 --> 0:58:03.320
<v Speaker 1>or just look at it for what it is. What

0:58:03.480 --> 0:58:06.240
<v Speaker 1>should we make of the fact that the Democrats continue

0:58:06.240 --> 0:58:08.120
<v Speaker 1>to pretend like there's not a crisis at the border.

0:58:08.160 --> 0:58:11.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's it's astonishing to me. You know, people

0:58:11.400 --> 0:58:14.000
<v Speaker 1>look at the seizure yesterday and the fact that they're

0:58:14.560 --> 0:58:17.600
<v Speaker 1>the Left's first response to a massive seizure or fentanyl

0:58:17.920 --> 0:58:19.440
<v Speaker 1>at a port of entry is oh, look, it's at

0:58:19.440 --> 0:58:22.400
<v Speaker 1>a port of entry. It's not only at ports of entry.

0:58:23.200 --> 0:58:29.360
<v Speaker 1>And by the way, ports of entry are also under

0:58:29.400 --> 0:58:32.680
<v Speaker 1>greater strain because in terms of the security that's there,

0:58:33.160 --> 0:58:36.480
<v Speaker 1>because you have immigrations and customs enforcement and border patrol

0:58:36.840 --> 0:58:40.240
<v Speaker 1>having to process a lot of people coming into the

0:58:40.240 --> 0:58:42.040
<v Speaker 1>country and dealing with a lot of people who are

0:58:42.040 --> 0:58:46.120
<v Speaker 1>surrounding themselves as family units giving them medical care. This

0:58:46.240 --> 0:58:50.320
<v Speaker 1>is all strain on the system. This all takes people

0:58:50.360 --> 0:58:52.760
<v Speaker 1>away from the job of law enforcement and makes them

0:58:52.800 --> 0:58:57.440
<v Speaker 1>act like a makeshift red cross on our southern border.

0:58:59.000 --> 0:59:02.720
<v Speaker 1>So when we look at that, we should all understand

0:59:02.760 --> 0:59:06.000
<v Speaker 1>that the stakes are life and death. Bernie Sanders and

0:59:06.040 --> 0:59:08.400
<v Speaker 1>Acazio Qutez. Later on we'll talk about how they think

0:59:08.400 --> 0:59:11.280
<v Speaker 1>that green energy is a life and death issue and

0:59:11.320 --> 0:59:14.040
<v Speaker 1>it's not. And it's really an embarrassment that they think

0:59:14.040 --> 0:59:17.200
<v Speaker 1>it is Perhaps no more embarrassing than when Barack Obama

0:59:17.280 --> 0:59:19.760
<v Speaker 1>said when he was speaking at the Coastguard Academy that

0:59:19.800 --> 0:59:22.800
<v Speaker 1>climate change is the greatest national security threat we face.

0:59:23.800 --> 0:59:28.800
<v Speaker 1>Talk about tilting at windmills. This just makes no sense

0:59:29.720 --> 0:59:34.480
<v Speaker 1>at all, It makes no sense, But they really believe this,

0:59:35.560 --> 0:59:38.560
<v Speaker 1>They really believe this. Here we have a true crisis,

0:59:38.640 --> 0:59:44.040
<v Speaker 1>a major emergency, and there's just no interest whatsoever from

0:59:44.040 --> 0:59:46.760
<v Speaker 1>the Democrats and taking serious actions to stop it. When

0:59:46.800 --> 0:59:50.360
<v Speaker 1>they say things like oh, we need drones, we need drones,

0:59:50.400 --> 0:59:53.360
<v Speaker 1>I say, okay, that just means that you'll know someone's

0:59:53.400 --> 0:59:57.760
<v Speaker 1>crossing the border in time to not get there and

0:59:58.040 --> 1:00:01.160
<v Speaker 1>arrest them. So you'll just have nice footage of somebody

1:00:01.160 --> 1:00:03.880
<v Speaker 1>who's doing an illegal crossing. How does that help anyone.

1:00:04.840 --> 1:00:06.400
<v Speaker 1>How does that help anyone that I don't think that

1:00:06.440 --> 1:00:09.800
<v Speaker 1>they have an answer for this. By the way, also,

1:00:10.520 --> 1:00:12.280
<v Speaker 1>how can we not have a crisis at the border

1:00:12.280 --> 1:00:13.920
<v Speaker 1>When you look at how many people are dying and

1:00:13.960 --> 1:00:18.480
<v Speaker 1>you look at the numbers with say, just fentanyl and

1:00:19.000 --> 1:00:23.720
<v Speaker 1>heroin alone, and compare it to ten, fifteen, twenty years ago.

1:00:24.800 --> 1:00:27.240
<v Speaker 1>It's not just the numbers of illegal crossings that are

1:00:27.280 --> 1:00:30.080
<v Speaker 1>so disconcerting, it's how much is pouring into our country

1:00:30.080 --> 1:00:35.520
<v Speaker 1>by way of drugs that kill people. These are more

1:00:35.640 --> 1:00:37.960
<v Speaker 1>lethal drugs, dude. This This isn't you know, bales of

1:00:37.960 --> 1:00:41.320
<v Speaker 1>hero I mean, pardon me. This isn't bales of marijuana

1:00:41.520 --> 1:00:43.760
<v Speaker 1>in the back of someone's truck driving into the US

1:00:43.840 --> 1:00:46.800
<v Speaker 1>or people bringing it down from Canada. These are drugs

1:00:46.800 --> 1:00:49.000
<v Speaker 1>that are so lethal that if you touch them you

1:00:49.040 --> 1:00:53.680
<v Speaker 1>can die. Which the biochemistry of that has been explained

1:00:53.680 --> 1:00:56.960
<v Speaker 1>to me by a doctor before, and it still is

1:00:57.000 --> 1:01:00.840
<v Speaker 1>hard to believe. And as was mentioned, I think on

1:01:00.880 --> 1:01:02.960
<v Speaker 1>this show yesterday, you know, there's a lot of narcan

1:01:03.040 --> 1:01:05.920
<v Speaker 1>out there, so you still have this very high overdose

1:01:06.000 --> 1:01:09.120
<v Speaker 1>death rate, but it would be a lot higher if

1:01:09.120 --> 1:01:13.200
<v Speaker 1>there was not a very effective drug that could counteract

1:01:14.160 --> 1:01:17.120
<v Speaker 1>that could counteract these overdoses. I mean, thankfully it is there.

1:01:17.200 --> 1:01:19.960
<v Speaker 1>But I'm just telling you that the scale of this

1:01:20.000 --> 1:01:22.160
<v Speaker 1>problem is even greater than a lot of people realize,

1:01:22.200 --> 1:01:26.080
<v Speaker 1>because the only thing that has really paid attention to

1:01:26.120 --> 1:01:30.479
<v Speaker 1>our deaths not near deaths, and a lot of lives

1:01:30.520 --> 1:01:33.040
<v Speaker 1>are being saved with narcan. A lot of emergency medical

1:01:33.080 --> 1:01:36.320
<v Speaker 1>responders have to carry Narkan with them now and are

1:01:36.440 --> 1:01:41.040
<v Speaker 1>using it. So this is a very serious issue, and

1:01:41.160 --> 1:01:44.440
<v Speaker 1>you know the China connection to it too. You think

1:01:44.440 --> 1:01:47.320
<v Speaker 1>about the real national security challenges that we face. We've

1:01:47.320 --> 1:01:50.840
<v Speaker 1>gotten so wrapped up in thinking that we need to

1:01:50.880 --> 1:01:54.520
<v Speaker 1>stop every g hottest overseas. And look, I've been guilty

1:01:54.560 --> 1:01:56.560
<v Speaker 1>of it too in the past, thinking well, we've this

1:01:56.600 --> 1:01:58.800
<v Speaker 1>group says they're aligned with al Qaedas, so we've got

1:01:58.800 --> 1:02:01.680
<v Speaker 1>to go after them, or that says they're aligned. Sometimes

1:02:01.720 --> 1:02:05.920
<v Speaker 1>we do, sometimes we don't. But when you have the

1:02:06.000 --> 1:02:09.800
<v Speaker 1>crisis at our southern border, you have China stealing our

1:02:09.840 --> 1:02:13.120
<v Speaker 1>intellectual property at a rate that will give them near

1:02:13.520 --> 1:02:19.120
<v Speaker 1>technological and therefore military parody, if not superiority to us

1:02:19.160 --> 1:02:22.560
<v Speaker 1>going forward. And then yeah, the Chinese not as an

1:02:22.560 --> 1:02:26.600
<v Speaker 1>official state policy, but it is interesting isn't it the

1:02:26.600 --> 1:02:29.800
<v Speaker 1>possibility that maybe maybe the Chinese, which you know, China

1:02:29.880 --> 1:02:32.120
<v Speaker 1>is a police state, maybe they turn a little bit

1:02:32.160 --> 1:02:34.360
<v Speaker 1>of a of a blind eye to some of this.

1:02:35.360 --> 1:02:38.720
<v Speaker 1>Maybe they're not, as you know, not as as clear

1:02:38.840 --> 1:02:41.280
<v Speaker 1>on what's leaving their borders when it comes offense and

1:02:41.320 --> 1:02:45.000
<v Speaker 1>a lot of things as they pretend to be. They

1:02:45.040 --> 1:02:49.920
<v Speaker 1>are providing the precursor chemicals to then be mixed into

1:02:49.960 --> 1:02:53.160
<v Speaker 1>these drugs, into these very deadly drugs in Mexico and

1:02:53.160 --> 1:02:56.440
<v Speaker 1>brought up across the border. Mexico is playing a role

1:02:56.440 --> 1:02:58.800
<v Speaker 1>in this too. You know, if it were so easy

1:02:58.840 --> 1:03:00.520
<v Speaker 1>to do, if it we're not a problem them at all,

1:03:01.480 --> 1:03:05.240
<v Speaker 1>then why not just why wouldn't the cartel is why

1:03:05.240 --> 1:03:07.120
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't the bad guys just be making the stuff here?

1:03:07.240 --> 1:03:10.560
<v Speaker 1>Because they're setting up industrial facilities in Mexico where they

1:03:10.600 --> 1:03:12.760
<v Speaker 1>can make tons of the stuff, bring it over and

1:03:12.840 --> 1:03:16.760
<v Speaker 1>it's killing people. It's killing people that you know, and

1:03:16.880 --> 1:03:19.520
<v Speaker 1>they say it's not a crisis. Trump is taking very seriously,

1:03:19.520 --> 1:03:23.320
<v Speaker 1>and he say, look that the Chinese they better shape

1:03:23.400 --> 1:03:26.600
<v Speaker 1>up on this one too. He says that they're going

1:03:26.640 --> 1:03:30.880
<v Speaker 1>to do some stuff about fentanyl. One of the things

1:03:30.880 --> 1:03:34.400
<v Speaker 1>that we discussed in Argentina was fent at al. This

1:03:34.520 --> 1:03:36.800
<v Speaker 1>is not a trade deal. This is a fact that

1:03:37.280 --> 1:03:41.720
<v Speaker 1>Presidency was extremely good when he said that they would

1:03:41.760 --> 1:03:47.160
<v Speaker 1>criminalize fentanyl because fentotyl is killing a lot of our

1:03:47.240 --> 1:03:52.960
<v Speaker 1>great American people. It's true, it's true, we'll China do

1:03:53.000 --> 1:03:56.320
<v Speaker 1>what's necessary here to help us. I don't know. I

1:03:56.360 --> 1:03:58.760
<v Speaker 1>think that that's very much still an open question. But

1:03:59.480 --> 1:04:03.080
<v Speaker 1>these these drugs are a scourge unlike any we've ever

1:04:03.120 --> 1:04:06.960
<v Speaker 1>seen before in this country. It is orders of magnitude

1:04:07.040 --> 1:04:10.160
<v Speaker 1>worse than the crack epidemic. It is just by the numbers.

1:04:10.360 --> 1:04:11.920
<v Speaker 1>I know people have said there's some kind of a

1:04:12.560 --> 1:04:15.160
<v Speaker 1>class or race dynamic to that. I think that that

1:04:15.920 --> 1:04:19.360
<v Speaker 1>is just refuted when you look at you. We've never

1:04:19.440 --> 1:04:22.280
<v Speaker 1>had a year before last year when seventy thousand people

1:04:22.320 --> 1:04:25.360
<v Speaker 1>died of drug overdoses. That's never happened before in this

1:04:25.400 --> 1:04:28.160
<v Speaker 1>country's history. And it's an astonished number. For every seventy

1:04:28.200 --> 1:04:31.520
<v Speaker 1>for every person who dies, think of how many friends, family, love,

1:04:31.600 --> 1:04:35.040
<v Speaker 1>the ones they have that are shattered by this. So

1:04:35.320 --> 1:04:38.440
<v Speaker 1>it's a crisis, Okay, it's a crisis. Democrats need to

1:04:38.440 --> 1:04:42.640
<v Speaker 1>stop just playing the most pathetic politics with this and

1:04:42.680 --> 1:04:46.840
<v Speaker 1>get on board for securing the border. They just won't

1:04:46.840 --> 1:04:49.720
<v Speaker 1>do it. This is a real life and death issue,

1:04:50.560 --> 1:04:55.360
<v Speaker 1>and they just don't care. A fascinating and very disturbing

1:04:56.280 --> 1:05:01.120
<v Speaker 1>disparity in the way that the abortion bills in New

1:05:01.200 --> 1:05:05.480
<v Speaker 1>York and Virginia are being discussed or not discussed, or

1:05:05.520 --> 1:05:09.160
<v Speaker 1>being covered or not covered by the media. I see

1:05:09.200 --> 1:05:14.200
<v Speaker 1>here that the go to tactic when there's a moment

1:05:14.200 --> 1:05:17.520
<v Speaker 1>when the American people get to see just how grotesque

1:05:17.560 --> 1:05:22.360
<v Speaker 1>in barbaric the true pro choice side of the argument

1:05:22.640 --> 1:05:26.880
<v Speaker 1>is when there is an opportunity for that, the media's

1:05:27.080 --> 1:05:29.640
<v Speaker 1>best response usually. I mean, they can lie, but they

1:05:29.640 --> 1:05:32.720
<v Speaker 1>can only lie so much because it either is or

1:05:32.920 --> 1:05:35.000
<v Speaker 1>is not. We're talking about a matter of law. This

1:05:35.080 --> 1:05:39.520
<v Speaker 1>is why Representative Tran of the Virginia State Legislature who

1:05:39.960 --> 1:05:42.600
<v Speaker 1>said that yes, it would include abortional up to a birth.

1:05:43.040 --> 1:05:45.040
<v Speaker 1>That's because that is what the law says. I mean,

1:05:45.320 --> 1:05:47.240
<v Speaker 1>they can say that, you know, they can try to

1:05:47.240 --> 1:05:48.920
<v Speaker 1>say that it doesn't they can try to say that

1:05:48.920 --> 1:05:52.880
<v Speaker 1>nobody would ever do that, but that is what the

1:05:53.000 --> 1:05:56.920
<v Speaker 1>law says. So this is a yes or no question,

1:05:57.080 --> 1:05:59.560
<v Speaker 1>and when they have to answer tough yes or no questions,

1:06:00.160 --> 1:06:03.400
<v Speaker 1>their Their preferred method is once the word is out,

1:06:03.800 --> 1:06:05.240
<v Speaker 1>they just act like, what do you mean, it's not

1:06:05.280 --> 1:06:07.800
<v Speaker 1>a big story. That's not it's not a big deal

1:06:07.800 --> 1:06:10.080
<v Speaker 1>at all. That doesn't really matter. Who cares about this.

1:06:11.440 --> 1:06:13.320
<v Speaker 1>We should listen to people when they tell us who

1:06:13.320 --> 1:06:17.120
<v Speaker 1>they are, and in the last few days we've gotten

1:06:17.160 --> 1:06:21.120
<v Speaker 1>a real sense of who the progressive left are in

1:06:21.160 --> 1:06:24.760
<v Speaker 1>this country. But it also reminds me of and I

1:06:24.800 --> 1:06:27.120
<v Speaker 1>have to hat hit my friend Rahim Kassam for putting

1:06:27.160 --> 1:06:30.720
<v Speaker 1>this out there on the internet and pointing out to everybody.

1:06:30.800 --> 1:06:33.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, Trump knew who Hillary was on this issue

1:06:33.840 --> 1:06:35.960
<v Speaker 1>quite a long time ago, whoever it was during the

1:06:36.120 --> 1:06:40.880
<v Speaker 1>during the debates, and he got hammered at the time

1:06:41.520 --> 1:06:44.640
<v Speaker 1>by the pro Hillary press, which is ninety percent of them.

1:06:45.200 --> 1:06:48.920
<v Speaker 1>He got hammered because he said, look, you need to

1:06:49.000 --> 1:06:51.680
<v Speaker 1>understand what Hillary Clinton is willing to support. They said, oh, no,

1:06:51.800 --> 1:06:54.840
<v Speaker 1>she won't, she won't support that. That's not true. It

1:06:54.880 --> 1:06:57.880
<v Speaker 1>turns out it is very much the case. But here's

1:06:57.880 --> 1:07:01.800
<v Speaker 1>what he said to her back then, light term partial birth. Well,

1:07:01.840 --> 1:07:04.720
<v Speaker 1>I think it's terrible. If you go with what Hillary

1:07:04.800 --> 1:07:07.600
<v Speaker 1>is saying in the ninth month, you can take the

1:07:07.680 --> 1:07:11.360
<v Speaker 1>baby and rip the baby out of the womb of

1:07:11.400 --> 1:07:14.440
<v Speaker 1>the mother just prior to the birth of the baby.

1:07:14.720 --> 1:07:17.120
<v Speaker 1>Is based on what she's saying and based on where

1:07:17.120 --> 1:07:19.960
<v Speaker 1>she's going and where she's been, you can take the

1:07:20.040 --> 1:07:22.760
<v Speaker 1>baby and rip the baby out of the womb in

1:07:22.840 --> 1:07:26.200
<v Speaker 1>the ninth month, on the final day. Well, that is

1:07:26.280 --> 1:07:29.240
<v Speaker 1>not what happens in these cases. And using that kind

1:07:29.320 --> 1:07:34.760
<v Speaker 1>of scare rhetoric is just terribly unfortunate where it's obvious

1:07:34.760 --> 1:07:38.920
<v Speaker 1>that a woman is about to give birth. That was

1:07:38.960 --> 1:07:42.000
<v Speaker 1>what Hillary said, And now we're just going to play

1:07:42.040 --> 1:07:45.080
<v Speaker 1>over what Hillary is. Oh, that's horrible and barbaric, and

1:07:45.120 --> 1:07:48.040
<v Speaker 1>that's not what happens. Here is what was said on

1:07:48.080 --> 1:07:52.400
<v Speaker 1>the Virginia legislature floor a couple of days ago. Play John,

1:07:53.960 --> 1:07:55.840
<v Speaker 1>would that still be a point at which she could

1:07:55.840 --> 1:08:01.320
<v Speaker 1>request an abortion if she was so certified she's dilating,

1:08:02.840 --> 1:08:06.360
<v Speaker 1>mister chairman. That would be a you know, a decision

1:08:06.520 --> 1:08:10.120
<v Speaker 1>that the doctor, the physician and the woman understand that.

1:08:10.160 --> 1:08:12.919
<v Speaker 1>I'm asking if your bill allows that. My bill would

1:08:12.920 --> 1:08:18.719
<v Speaker 1>allow that. Yes, So what exactly was Hillary saying about

1:08:18.760 --> 1:08:21.640
<v Speaker 1>how that's part you know that that's not fair and

1:08:21.680 --> 1:08:24.400
<v Speaker 1>that's not what happened. It is what would happen, and

1:08:24.520 --> 1:08:27.559
<v Speaker 1>we've all known all along that's what would happen, and

1:08:27.600 --> 1:08:31.240
<v Speaker 1>that they have to you see, they have to legalize

1:08:31.280 --> 1:08:35.840
<v Speaker 1>third trimester abortion because if there were any restrictions on

1:08:35.880 --> 1:08:39.480
<v Speaker 1>abortion and the third trimester, that would be a concession

1:08:40.439 --> 1:08:43.720
<v Speaker 1>that this is a baby. That would be a concession

1:08:43.760 --> 1:08:46.360
<v Speaker 1>that this is a life that is involved. And they

1:08:46.439 --> 1:08:50.439
<v Speaker 1>don't want to make that concession because if it's a

1:08:50.479 --> 1:08:53.720
<v Speaker 1>baby at nine months, if it's a baby when it's

1:08:53.760 --> 1:08:55.920
<v Speaker 1>coming out of the birth canal, you have to ask

1:08:55.920 --> 1:09:00.320
<v Speaker 1>the question, well, is it a baby at eight months, seven, six,

1:09:01.040 --> 1:09:04.360
<v Speaker 1>five four, And they don't want they don't want to

1:09:04.400 --> 1:09:08.160
<v Speaker 1>have to answer those questions. Better to pretend that it's

1:09:08.240 --> 1:09:10.120
<v Speaker 1>not a baby at all, and to do so under

1:09:10.120 --> 1:09:13.880
<v Speaker 1>this rubek of doctors and women making choices about their

1:09:13.920 --> 1:09:20.120
<v Speaker 1>own health. That's just that's just blather. That's not addressing

1:09:20.160 --> 1:09:21.720
<v Speaker 1>the issue. That's not talking to the issue. But I

1:09:21.720 --> 1:09:24.599
<v Speaker 1>would just know that, you know, Hillary, people always say, oh, Trump,

1:09:24.640 --> 1:09:27.080
<v Speaker 1>he's got a problem with the truth. But what he

1:09:27.160 --> 1:09:30.040
<v Speaker 1>said there was correct, and the media was all over him.

1:09:31.200 --> 1:09:33.920
<v Speaker 1>The media pounced. You could say that was that was

1:09:33.960 --> 1:09:36.479
<v Speaker 1>another one. In the last twenty four hours, you've seen

1:09:36.560 --> 1:09:39.479
<v Speaker 1>so many news stories from these different major outlets and

1:09:39.520 --> 1:09:42.880
<v Speaker 1>papers where they keep doing this, Oh, Republicans pounce on

1:09:43.040 --> 1:09:48.200
<v Speaker 1>what Governor Northam says. Well, yeah, I mean they're gonna

1:09:48.240 --> 1:09:51.200
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna react pretty strongly to a guy saying that, yeah,

1:09:51.240 --> 1:09:53.160
<v Speaker 1>you can kill baby sometimes if you if you really,

1:09:53.280 --> 1:09:54.920
<v Speaker 1>if you really have to kill a baby, you can

1:09:55.000 --> 1:09:59.559
<v Speaker 1>kill a baby. When when a state governor says that,

1:09:59.680 --> 1:10:02.360
<v Speaker 1>people are going to quote pounce. But I just think

1:10:02.360 --> 1:10:06.880
<v Speaker 1>it's a fascinating case study in how the media tries

1:10:06.920 --> 1:10:11.200
<v Speaker 1>to run interference and tries to do whatever it can

1:10:11.280 --> 1:10:14.640
<v Speaker 1>to help one side of this argument, tries to be

1:10:14.760 --> 1:10:19.360
<v Speaker 1>helpful to one side of this argument, and that's it's

1:10:19.400 --> 1:10:22.799
<v Speaker 1>never about the initial act that a Democrat has committed

1:10:22.880 --> 1:10:25.679
<v Speaker 1>or the initial thing they've said. It's always all Republicans pounce.

1:10:26.479 --> 1:10:30.479
<v Speaker 1>They're going too far, they've overreached. That's another one. They'd

1:10:30.520 --> 1:10:34.640
<v Speaker 1>like to say, Oh, they've overreached. That is not the

1:10:34.720 --> 1:10:38.360
<v Speaker 1>case at all, certainly not the case here. And that

1:10:38.400 --> 1:10:40.920
<v Speaker 1>brings me to a little bit of a public back

1:10:40.920 --> 1:10:44.960
<v Speaker 1>and forth I had today with a few never Trump

1:10:45.000 --> 1:10:48.760
<v Speaker 1>conservatives online, which is fine. Some of them I like,

1:10:48.880 --> 1:10:50.639
<v Speaker 1>some of them, I detest depends on which one we're

1:10:50.680 --> 1:10:54.840
<v Speaker 1>talking about. But there's a particular sensitivity right now to

1:10:56.400 --> 1:10:58.479
<v Speaker 1>what I had said or what I had written. And

1:10:58.520 --> 1:11:01.240
<v Speaker 1>we'll say now is we have seen that the Democrats

1:11:01.280 --> 1:11:05.720
<v Speaker 1>are in the last month and if you ally with them,

1:11:05.800 --> 1:11:09.280
<v Speaker 1>if you are willing to support them and support they're

1:11:09.360 --> 1:11:14.120
<v Speaker 1>getting into power when they are when they are favorable

1:11:14.200 --> 1:11:17.760
<v Speaker 1>to illegal immigration, pro and fanticide, want a seventy to

1:11:17.840 --> 1:11:21.160
<v Speaker 1>a ninety percent tax rate. You know, you add up

1:11:21.160 --> 1:11:26.000
<v Speaker 1>all these things, and if you are supporting them because

1:11:26.040 --> 1:11:29.559
<v Speaker 1>you think that's a way to chasen Trump or own

1:11:29.640 --> 1:11:32.760
<v Speaker 1>the drum for whatever, there's a name for that, you're

1:11:32.840 --> 1:11:36.920
<v Speaker 1>called a Democrat. Now, I know that never Trump. People

1:11:36.920 --> 1:11:38.680
<v Speaker 1>get very mad when you say this, because I'm not

1:11:38.760 --> 1:11:41.200
<v Speaker 1>saying you can't. You know, first of all, you know

1:11:41.200 --> 1:11:43.120
<v Speaker 1>people can say whatever they want to say, But I'm

1:11:43.160 --> 1:11:46.840
<v Speaker 1>not calling out people who criticize Trump. Have problems with Trump. Look,

1:11:46.840 --> 1:11:48.360
<v Speaker 1>if he doesn't build that wall, I'm gonna have a

1:11:48.400 --> 1:11:52.640
<v Speaker 1>big problem with Trump. And I think that Trump sometimes

1:11:52.720 --> 1:11:55.120
<v Speaker 1>is self defeating in certain ways with his messaging. I

1:11:55.120 --> 1:11:56.760
<v Speaker 1>think that he makes things harder. He certainly makes it

1:11:56.800 --> 1:12:00.479
<v Speaker 1>harder for people like me to make a case for

1:12:00.479 --> 1:12:02.439
<v Speaker 1>the parts of his message that we do really like

1:12:02.520 --> 1:12:07.600
<v Speaker 1>and agree with him on. Right, So there's certainly criticism

1:12:07.600 --> 1:12:10.080
<v Speaker 1>to be had of Trump. And I've talked before about

1:12:10.080 --> 1:12:14.000
<v Speaker 1>the nepotism around Trump. That's I can't defend that, and

1:12:14.320 --> 1:12:17.439
<v Speaker 1>people who think it's okay, just wait until you have

1:12:18.040 --> 1:12:23.439
<v Speaker 1>you know, Kamala Harris's husband as Secretary of the Treasury

1:12:23.520 --> 1:12:25.240
<v Speaker 1>or something, you know, I mean, that's then then you'll

1:12:25.240 --> 1:12:27.360
<v Speaker 1>be like, oh, I don't like nepotism. All too late.

1:12:28.560 --> 1:12:30.519
<v Speaker 1>But there's plenty of ways to criticize the president. That's

1:12:30.520 --> 1:12:34.000
<v Speaker 1>different than allying with the other side though, and this

1:12:34.360 --> 1:12:37.559
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't be that complicated a concept, but people get very

1:12:37.560 --> 1:12:40.880
<v Speaker 1>emotional about this. If you want to say, I don't

1:12:40.920 --> 1:12:44.280
<v Speaker 1>like what Trump is doing, but I do appreciate that

1:12:44.360 --> 1:12:47.000
<v Speaker 1>the Republicans stand for life and the Democrats stand for death,

1:12:47.080 --> 1:12:50.440
<v Speaker 1>and therefore I would rather Republicans be in charge of

1:12:50.479 --> 1:12:53.439
<v Speaker 1>the Congress than the Democrats. Fine, but if you're if

1:12:53.439 --> 1:12:57.320
<v Speaker 1>your response to what you're seeing happening here is you

1:12:57.360 --> 1:12:59.680
<v Speaker 1>know what to really teach the Republicans a lesson? We

1:12:59.720 --> 1:13:06.799
<v Speaker 1>need to give the Occasio Cortez, Warren Sanders, Hillary Clinton,

1:13:07.120 --> 1:13:11.040
<v Speaker 1>wing of the party. We need to give them power.

1:13:11.920 --> 1:13:13.400
<v Speaker 1>We need to put them in power so that they

1:13:13.400 --> 1:13:15.840
<v Speaker 1>can do the things that they want to do. You're

1:13:15.880 --> 1:13:18.240
<v Speaker 1>allowed to do that, but that's just called being a democrat.

1:13:19.320 --> 1:13:24.040
<v Speaker 1>That is what that is. It is called being a democrat.

1:13:25.800 --> 1:13:27.280
<v Speaker 1>So I think we should be able to be pretty

1:13:27.280 --> 1:13:29.080
<v Speaker 1>clear about that. I mean, never Trump. People can as

1:13:29.120 --> 1:13:30.519
<v Speaker 1>mad as me if they want that. I'm not calling

1:13:30.520 --> 1:13:33.479
<v Speaker 1>all them out on this. I'm just saying this is

1:13:33.640 --> 1:13:35.759
<v Speaker 1>how I see it, and I think it's pretty clear

1:13:35.880 --> 1:13:38.559
<v Speaker 1>at this point. The other side has showed us who

1:13:38.560 --> 1:13:40.960
<v Speaker 1>they are. This month, really or the last month, I

1:13:40.960 --> 1:13:43.360
<v Speaker 1>should say, they have showed us who they are. And

1:13:43.680 --> 1:13:46.799
<v Speaker 1>it's not good. It is not pretty. It's not something

1:13:46.840 --> 1:13:48.640
<v Speaker 1>that I would ever want to be a part of.

1:13:48.720 --> 1:13:54.360
<v Speaker 1>So time to double down on conservatism. I've been talking

1:14:49.560 --> 1:14:52.080
<v Speaker 1>available in the Apple App Store and for Android, snippy

1:14:52.080 --> 1:14:55.880
<v Speaker 1>dot com your new alternative social media. You're talking about

1:14:55.960 --> 1:15:00.000
<v Speaker 1>zero carbon emissions, no use of fossil fuels within twelve years.

1:15:00.400 --> 1:15:04.080
<v Speaker 1>That is the goal. It's ambitious and that possible. To

1:15:04.120 --> 1:15:07.200
<v Speaker 1>talking about everybody having to drive an electric cart. It's

1:15:07.280 --> 1:15:11.720
<v Speaker 1>going to require a lot of rapid change that we

1:15:11.840 --> 1:15:15.680
<v Speaker 1>don't even conceive as possible right now. That it is

1:15:15.800 --> 1:15:21.920
<v Speaker 1>absolutely imperative and a life and death issue that we

1:15:22.000 --> 1:15:27.240
<v Speaker 1>have got to transform our energy system away from fossil

1:15:27.280 --> 1:15:33.400
<v Speaker 1>fuel to sustainable energy. If you do not, for example,

1:15:34.000 --> 1:15:38.719
<v Speaker 1>close the refrigerator door quickly, you will be letting cold

1:15:39.280 --> 1:15:43.640
<v Speaker 1>out into your kitchen area, and then there will be

1:15:43.840 --> 1:15:48.920
<v Speaker 1>necessary electricity to make the cold thing happen in the refrigerator,

1:15:49.520 --> 1:15:54.080
<v Speaker 1>which is fossil fuels, which do things environment I'll go

1:15:55.160 --> 1:16:02.200
<v Speaker 1>press though, that's all I need to say. This is lunacy.

1:16:02.800 --> 1:16:07.400
<v Speaker 1>This is lunacy from Acasio Cortez and from Bernie Sanders.

1:16:07.400 --> 1:16:10.559
<v Speaker 1>It's it's really similar lunacy. And right now we're being

1:16:10.600 --> 1:16:14.280
<v Speaker 1>told or being told this when it's oh so cold

1:16:14.280 --> 1:16:16.240
<v Speaker 1>that I said, sure enough, there are people out there,

1:16:16.720 --> 1:16:19.200
<v Speaker 1>Elizabeth Warren one of them. People are going to take

1:16:19.280 --> 1:16:24.519
<v Speaker 1>this approach that, oh, the temperatures are a function or

1:16:24.600 --> 1:16:26.959
<v Speaker 1>you know, the temperature last few days across the Midwest,

1:16:27.000 --> 1:16:30.080
<v Speaker 1>and it's because of climate change. Because we hit some

1:16:30.120 --> 1:16:31.960
<v Speaker 1>records in some places. And I said, well, there are

1:16:31.960 --> 1:16:36.160
<v Speaker 1>other places where we did not hit a record. We

1:16:36.240 --> 1:16:39.559
<v Speaker 1>did not hit a record because oh, that's right, the

1:16:39.600 --> 1:16:42.400
<v Speaker 1>record was hit in the eighties, or the record was

1:16:42.479 --> 1:16:44.720
<v Speaker 1>hit you know, and some other I mean, this is

1:16:44.800 --> 1:16:49.639
<v Speaker 1>just it's silly, It is intellectually unserious. But they keep

1:16:50.439 --> 1:16:52.840
<v Speaker 1>doing this, They keep saying Oh, if we don't do

1:16:52.960 --> 1:16:56.200
<v Speaker 1>something dramatic, I'm calling it the Great Green Leap Forward.

1:16:56.240 --> 1:16:57.880
<v Speaker 1>I should probably run an article on that, Mike. I

1:16:57.880 --> 1:17:01.880
<v Speaker 1>think that would get some attention. See, when Mao was

1:17:01.960 --> 1:17:06.680
<v Speaker 1>running China, China was in a impoverished agrarian society, a

1:17:06.680 --> 1:17:09.840
<v Speaker 1>lot of subsistence farming, very very bad. And you know,

1:17:10.200 --> 1:17:13.240
<v Speaker 1>when you're talking about the nineteen fifties, you're looking at

1:17:13.240 --> 1:17:18.040
<v Speaker 1>a country that was in need of some modernization, to

1:17:18.080 --> 1:17:21.360
<v Speaker 1>be sure. So they figured, all right, let's just push

1:17:21.439 --> 1:17:24.479
<v Speaker 1>this thing forward. Let's make it happen a lot faster

1:17:24.760 --> 1:17:29.120
<v Speaker 1>as a function of central government planning. Right, I mean,

1:17:29.400 --> 1:17:33.160
<v Speaker 1>let's actually make sure that people are doing what the

1:17:33.200 --> 1:17:35.599
<v Speaker 1>government tells them do. I mean, this is the Great

1:17:35.680 --> 1:17:39.479
<v Speaker 1>Leap Forward was from nineteen fifty eight to nineteen sixty two. Right,

1:17:39.520 --> 1:17:42.760
<v Speaker 1>they were forcing people into the cities, taking them out

1:17:42.800 --> 1:17:45.840
<v Speaker 1>of the countryside. Well, it led to mass starvation and

1:17:45.880 --> 1:17:48.320
<v Speaker 1>all kinds of government abuse and very very bad things.

1:17:48.840 --> 1:17:52.599
<v Speaker 1>That wasn't initially the plan, but that is what happens.

1:17:53.800 --> 1:17:56.519
<v Speaker 1>In one of my favorite books on the subject, the

1:17:57.680 --> 1:18:01.880
<v Speaker 1>term that is used to describe this is local improvisation.

1:18:02.560 --> 1:18:05.800
<v Speaker 1>And this is just a corollary relate to what we

1:18:05.880 --> 1:18:08.559
<v Speaker 1>have with our government and the genius of the founding, right,

1:18:08.600 --> 1:18:11.000
<v Speaker 1>the reason that we have local and then state and

1:18:11.000 --> 1:18:15.000
<v Speaker 1>then federal, and they're all separate jurisdictions but also intertwined

1:18:15.080 --> 1:18:17.720
<v Speaker 1>jurisdictions in a sense, And the reason we have federalism,

1:18:17.800 --> 1:18:19.840
<v Speaker 1>we have this system of checks and balances all these

1:18:19.880 --> 1:18:23.280
<v Speaker 1>things is because we want people to be able to

1:18:23.320 --> 1:18:28.040
<v Speaker 1>make the most effective decisions for themselves as often as

1:18:28.080 --> 1:18:30.960
<v Speaker 1>they can and as quickly as they can. And people

1:18:31.080 --> 1:18:34.160
<v Speaker 1>in a certain township, for example, on that town council

1:18:34.560 --> 1:18:38.519
<v Speaker 1>are going to handle town issues better. And somebody in Washington,

1:18:38.600 --> 1:18:41.240
<v Speaker 1>d C. Who just says, yeah, do it this way.

1:18:42.040 --> 1:18:46.040
<v Speaker 1>And we've seen this time and again in history when

1:18:46.080 --> 1:18:51.599
<v Speaker 1>you let the march of progress occurs, especially technological progress,

1:18:51.640 --> 1:18:55.320
<v Speaker 1>economic progress, when it occurs based upon people that are

1:18:55.439 --> 1:19:00.000
<v Speaker 1>involved in the thing and can engage in improvisation. Oh,

1:19:00.120 --> 1:19:02.320
<v Speaker 1>baking the cookies this way, it doesn't work, I'll bake

1:19:02.360 --> 1:19:04.360
<v Speaker 1>them that way. This is how you got people to

1:19:04.400 --> 1:19:07.400
<v Speaker 1>make better cookies. When DC says make all the cookies

1:19:07.439 --> 1:19:10.040
<v Speaker 1>the same way or else, or else we're gonna take

1:19:10.040 --> 1:19:14.000
<v Speaker 1>away your bakery. That's bad, right, It was very bad

1:19:14.040 --> 1:19:17.720
<v Speaker 1>in China, and they led to mass starvation and horrific

1:19:18.040 --> 1:19:21.240
<v Speaker 1>oppression against the people that tried to push back against it.

1:19:21.880 --> 1:19:25.240
<v Speaker 1>And this does not work. You know, people say, oh,

1:19:25.280 --> 1:19:27.760
<v Speaker 1>but book, what about the Manhattan Project and getting the Moon?

1:19:28.000 --> 1:19:30.840
<v Speaker 1>The Manhattan Project wasn't three hundred million people all trying

1:19:30.880 --> 1:19:34.800
<v Speaker 1>to do advanced math problems on a chalkboard. It was

1:19:34.840 --> 1:19:40.000
<v Speaker 1>a small, secret government program about a technology that was

1:19:40.080 --> 1:19:44.600
<v Speaker 1>necessary for military survival. You know, government can do some

1:19:44.640 --> 1:19:46.800
<v Speaker 1>stuff like that. Sometimes they're they're they're good at that.

1:19:47.000 --> 1:19:50.479
<v Speaker 1>But it was not a collective mobilization of the entire

1:19:50.520 --> 1:19:53.840
<v Speaker 1>country toward the goal of figuring out something incredibly complicated.

1:19:53.960 --> 1:19:56.719
<v Speaker 1>What had taken a lot longer if the Manhattan Project

1:19:56.720 --> 1:20:00.360
<v Speaker 1>had been everybody involved. Yeah, my name is Phil and

1:20:00.560 --> 1:20:03.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm from West Philly, and I just want to say

1:20:03.960 --> 1:20:07.200
<v Speaker 1>that your calculations about fission look a little off to me,

1:20:07.800 --> 1:20:10.439
<v Speaker 1>and I would prefer if you're going to go toward

1:20:10.520 --> 1:20:14.479
<v Speaker 1>the splitting of the neutron in that fashion ego ipso

1:20:15.600 --> 1:20:20.680
<v Speaker 1>day fact though, and I'm done right, Producer Mike, you

1:20:20.720 --> 1:20:23.040
<v Speaker 1>would have your buddy, your buddies would have slowed down

1:20:23.080 --> 1:20:25.760
<v Speaker 1>the Amountain project if they're involved. I think This is true.

1:20:25.840 --> 1:20:28.560
<v Speaker 1>My dad's from West Philly. I've spent some time with

1:20:28.600 --> 1:20:32.280
<v Speaker 1>West Philly. It's uh, it's interesting. Once got held up

1:20:32.280 --> 1:20:34.920
<v Speaker 1>in West Philly at gume Point. Sounds like you've been

1:20:34.920 --> 1:20:37.840
<v Speaker 1>in West Philly. I've been. Yeah, beautiful, Yeah, lovely this

1:20:37.920 --> 1:20:40.280
<v Speaker 1>time of year, I'm sure too. You know. Unfortunately, when

1:20:40.280 --> 1:20:42.280
<v Speaker 1>you're in Philly and there's snow on the ground, they

1:20:42.280 --> 1:20:44.800
<v Speaker 1>don't play like a rocky montage behind you all the time.

1:20:44.840 --> 1:20:47.800
<v Speaker 1>You know, you don't. It's maybe better if you're wearing

1:20:47.800 --> 1:20:50.240
<v Speaker 1>like a sweatsuit you're working out and stuff. But for

1:20:50.280 --> 1:20:52.439
<v Speaker 1>the most part, not really place I want to be.

1:20:52.479 --> 1:20:54.519
<v Speaker 1>But all right, so, but back to the great green

1:20:54.600 --> 1:20:58.040
<v Speaker 1>leap forward. Think about how expensive everything is going to be.

1:20:58.080 --> 1:21:00.720
<v Speaker 1>When everything is more expensive, it's the way to really

1:21:00.720 --> 1:21:03.120
<v Speaker 1>put this into context. Think about what it would mean.

1:21:03.120 --> 1:21:06.600
<v Speaker 1>Because o'casio Quartez and this is this is why we

1:21:06.640 --> 1:21:09.200
<v Speaker 1>don't have real journalists, because they would ask questions like, Okay,

1:21:09.240 --> 1:21:13.559
<v Speaker 1>you want a massive green energy plan, what roughly what

1:21:13.720 --> 1:21:20.639
<v Speaker 1>percentage of gasoline is expended in the t is expended

1:21:20.680 --> 1:21:24.559
<v Speaker 1>by cars and the transportation industry versus in actual products.

1:21:25.280 --> 1:21:29.160
<v Speaker 1>I bet you would have no idea whatsoever. Absolutely none.

1:21:29.200 --> 1:21:31.599
<v Speaker 1>The answer is about half and we think of it. Oh,

1:21:31.640 --> 1:21:32.960
<v Speaker 1>it's just going to affect you at the pump the

1:21:33.000 --> 1:21:34.720
<v Speaker 1>price of gas. That's not true. It's not just the

1:21:34.720 --> 1:21:37.240
<v Speaker 1>price of gas, which also affects the price of products

1:21:37.280 --> 1:21:41.240
<v Speaker 1>because of the transportation side of the equation. It's also

1:21:41.880 --> 1:21:46.679
<v Speaker 1>fossil fuels that are used in products, products, my friends, things,

1:21:46.720 --> 1:21:51.160
<v Speaker 1>the very things itself that you buy or themselves that

1:21:51.240 --> 1:21:54.360
<v Speaker 1>you buy, and that's that's all going to go up

1:21:54.400 --> 1:21:57.439
<v Speaker 1>and be much more expensive. And remember, you wouldn't be

1:21:57.479 --> 1:21:59.840
<v Speaker 1>doing this. You wouldn't be paying all this money for

1:22:00.040 --> 1:22:03.920
<v Speaker 1>something that is good and tangible and real. You would

1:22:03.920 --> 1:22:07.040
<v Speaker 1>be paying this money so that you could deal with

1:22:07.439 --> 1:22:11.760
<v Speaker 1>climate change, which anybody who pays attention knows they're wrong

1:22:11.840 --> 1:22:16.559
<v Speaker 1>about over and over again. And this is so that

1:22:16.560 --> 1:22:18.800
<v Speaker 1>you can stop there from being more co two in

1:22:18.840 --> 1:22:26.080
<v Speaker 1>the air. Point zero four percent of the Earth's atmosphere

1:22:26.160 --> 1:22:30.280
<v Speaker 1>is carbon dioxide. So we're going to spend trillions of dollars,

1:22:31.439 --> 1:22:36.200
<v Speaker 1>put massive breaks on the economy, and do all of

1:22:36.240 --> 1:22:40.240
<v Speaker 1>this so that point zero four percent of the carbon

1:22:40.240 --> 1:22:44.479
<v Speaker 1>dioxide will be adjusted, maybe twenty percent over the next

1:22:44.479 --> 1:22:48.439
<v Speaker 1>twenty years. Normal people don't think this way. But the

1:22:48.479 --> 1:22:50.879
<v Speaker 1>good news is the American people are getting to see

1:22:51.040 --> 1:22:53.759
<v Speaker 1>the extent of the radicalism of the left from people

1:22:53.840 --> 1:23:00.439
<v Speaker 1>like Alexandra Occazio Cortez and Bernie Sanders, people who have

1:23:01.320 --> 1:23:05.479
<v Speaker 1>knowledge of neither science nor economics, but they know how

1:23:05.520 --> 1:23:08.360
<v Speaker 1>to push people's buttons. They know how to sound like

1:23:08.479 --> 1:23:10.640
<v Speaker 1>they care and that they're going to take on the

1:23:10.680 --> 1:23:13.439
<v Speaker 1>big bullies and the mean capitalists. That are the reason

1:23:13.560 --> 1:23:16.280
<v Speaker 1>that they say, the reason that you know things are

1:23:16.320 --> 1:23:19.360
<v Speaker 1>getting more expensive for you. The reality is they're also

1:23:19.400 --> 1:23:21.760
<v Speaker 1>the reason that this country and the people living it

1:23:21.840 --> 1:23:25.400
<v Speaker 1>right now are so incredibly wealthy that if you told

1:23:25.439 --> 1:23:27.080
<v Speaker 1>someone from one hundred years ago this is where we'd be,

1:23:27.120 --> 1:23:31.439
<v Speaker 1>they wouldn't believe you. But that requires some perspective which

1:23:31.640 --> 1:23:35.040
<v Speaker 1>the left does not have. If you're running a business,

1:23:35.120 --> 1:23:37.840
<v Speaker 1>large or small, you've got to have background checks done

1:23:37.840 --> 1:23:39.639
<v Speaker 1>and the people that you're hiring and bringing in right.

1:23:39.640 --> 1:23:42.080
<v Speaker 1>It's important as liability issues, and you also want to

1:23:42.120 --> 1:23:44.160
<v Speaker 1>make sure that you could trust the people around you.

1:23:44.439 --> 1:23:48.240
<v Speaker 1>That's why you need to trust Global Verification Network. Global

<v Speaker 1>You are now entering the Freedom Hot Titical Operation Center.

<v Speaker 1>All sense of the programs Musky Caps strictly need to

1:24:43.200 --> 1:24:47.799
<v Speaker 1>know Team Buck is cleared and ready for the Buck Brief.

1:24:48.040 --> 1:24:50.360
<v Speaker 1>We've provided Russia and ample window of time to mend

1:24:50.400 --> 1:24:55.000
<v Speaker 1>its ways and for Russia to honor its commitment tomorrow

1:24:55.080 --> 1:24:58.679
<v Speaker 1>that time runs out. Russia has refused to take any

1:24:58.720 --> 1:25:03.719
<v Speaker 1>steps to return real and verifiable compliance over these sixty days.

1:25:05.400 --> 1:25:08.439
<v Speaker 1>The United States will therefore suspend its obligations under the

1:25:08.439 --> 1:25:12.880
<v Speaker 1>I n F Treaty, effective February second. Russia has jeopardized

1:25:13.040 --> 1:25:15.920
<v Speaker 1>the United States security interest, and we can no longer

1:25:15.960 --> 1:25:19.800
<v Speaker 1>be restricted by the treaty while Russia shamelessly violates it.

1:25:20.840 --> 1:25:23.759
<v Speaker 1>If Russia does not return to full and verifiable compliance

1:25:23.800 --> 1:25:27.440
<v Speaker 1>with the treaty within this six month period by verifiably

1:25:27.479 --> 1:25:30.760
<v Speaker 1>destroying its I n F violating missiles, their launchers, and

1:25:30.840 --> 1:25:34.920
<v Speaker 1>associated equipment, the treaty will terminate. Secretary of State Mike

1:25:35.000 --> 1:25:38.760
<v Speaker 1>Pompeo announced earlier today that the US is suspending the

1:25:38.880 --> 1:25:42.840
<v Speaker 1>Intermediate Range Nuclear Forces Treaty, which is an important part

1:25:42.960 --> 1:25:48.240
<v Speaker 1>of European nuclear security since the Cold War. It seems

1:25:48.280 --> 1:25:49.920
<v Speaker 1>like kind of a big deal. What does it mean

1:25:49.960 --> 1:25:52.360
<v Speaker 1>and what does it tell us about Trump's relationship with Russia?

1:25:52.760 --> 1:25:55.960
<v Speaker 1>Brought on somebody who answers this and oh so much more.

1:25:56.040 --> 1:25:59.759
<v Speaker 1>Rebecca Heinricks is in the house. She is a senior

1:26:00.000 --> 1:26:04.679
<v Speaker 1>hello at the Hudson Institute and a missile super expert. Rebecca,

1:26:04.720 --> 1:26:07.320
<v Speaker 1>thanks for calling in. I'm so happy to do it.

1:26:07.320 --> 1:26:09.320
<v Speaker 1>Thanks for having me. All right, So what is the

1:26:09.720 --> 1:26:13.120
<v Speaker 1>just before we get into the the what comes next?

1:26:13.360 --> 1:26:15.200
<v Speaker 1>Tell us what's come before here a little bit. The

1:26:15.280 --> 1:26:18.320
<v Speaker 1>Intermediate Range Juclear Forces Treaty. What is it? Is it

1:26:18.400 --> 1:26:21.360
<v Speaker 1>a big deal? Why should people care? Sure? Well, at

1:26:21.360 --> 1:26:22.800
<v Speaker 1>the end of the Cold War, this is one of

1:26:22.880 --> 1:26:27.640
<v Speaker 1>those treaties people think of it as it is a

1:26:27.760 --> 1:26:30.600
<v Speaker 1>major Cold War treaty. And what it does is it

1:26:30.680 --> 1:26:37.360
<v Speaker 1>abolished the possession, the testing, and the deployment of a

1:26:37.720 --> 1:26:43.439
<v Speaker 1>whole category of missiles, ground launch cruise missiles. So these

1:26:43.439 --> 1:26:49.400
<v Speaker 1>are missiles that can range Europe, and we removed ours

1:26:49.479 --> 1:26:52.320
<v Speaker 1>from Europe the European theater. The Russians or the Soviet

1:26:52.360 --> 1:26:55.559
<v Speaker 1>Union at the time got rid of theirs. And the

1:26:55.640 --> 1:26:59.000
<v Speaker 1>reason that we don't like them, the reason that we

1:26:59.000 --> 1:27:01.240
<v Speaker 1>thought that they would state realizing at the time, is

1:27:01.240 --> 1:27:05.280
<v Speaker 1>because these particular kind of missiles are their shorter range,

1:27:05.320 --> 1:27:08.479
<v Speaker 1>so that the person who is in range of them,

1:27:08.479 --> 1:27:10.599
<v Speaker 1>these countries who are arranged of them, have much shorter

1:27:10.680 --> 1:27:15.240
<v Speaker 1>decision time if Russia decides to launch one. They had many,

1:27:15.280 --> 1:27:18.680
<v Speaker 1>many of these particular type of missiles, and so we

1:27:19.439 --> 1:27:24.040
<v Speaker 1>Ronald Reagan negotiated this treaty and we abolished and successfully

1:27:24.240 --> 1:27:29.679
<v Speaker 1>removed this particular range of missiles from the European theater. Now,

1:27:29.800 --> 1:27:33.080
<v Speaker 1>since then though Russia has been cheating. They have not

1:27:33.160 --> 1:27:36.400
<v Speaker 1>only been testing this particular type of missile, but now

1:27:36.439 --> 1:27:40.240
<v Speaker 1>they are deploying several battalions of this particular missiles. The

1:27:40.280 --> 1:27:43.360
<v Speaker 1>Obama administration knew they were doing, couldn't get Russia to comply,

1:27:44.040 --> 1:27:46.960
<v Speaker 1>but we're still bound by the treaty. And so now

1:27:47.000 --> 1:27:49.200
<v Speaker 1>the Trump administration tried for a couple of years to

1:27:49.240 --> 1:27:53.080
<v Speaker 1>get Russia to come back into compliance with the treaty,

1:27:53.439 --> 1:27:55.400
<v Speaker 1>and rather than do that, they've just gone the other

1:27:55.400 --> 1:27:58.320
<v Speaker 1>direction and continue to deploy more of them. So the

1:27:58.360 --> 1:28:00.880
<v Speaker 1>Trump administration announced today that we are not going to

1:28:00.920 --> 1:28:04.360
<v Speaker 1>be suckers to use the president. You know, President has

1:28:04.400 --> 1:28:05.840
<v Speaker 1>said that in the past, We're not going to be

1:28:05.880 --> 1:28:09.400
<v Speaker 1>suckers anymore. This is a perfect example of that. And

1:28:09.520 --> 1:28:11.920
<v Speaker 1>so we are. We have announced that in six months

1:28:11.920 --> 1:28:14.680
<v Speaker 1>of freshness, no longer complying with the treaty than we

1:28:14.720 --> 1:28:17.800
<v Speaker 1>are out of the treaty. The treaty's gone, so we

1:28:17.880 --> 1:28:21.080
<v Speaker 1>will be out of this treaty. What what's the concern, right,

1:28:21.080 --> 1:28:23.400
<v Speaker 1>because people, anytime you talk about pulling out of a

1:28:23.479 --> 1:28:27.000
<v Speaker 1>nuclear treaty, you're telling me that Russia is cheating. We've

1:28:27.040 --> 1:28:29.280
<v Speaker 1>been known, we've known for a while that Russia is cheating,

1:28:29.600 --> 1:28:31.799
<v Speaker 1>So why wouldn't we want to pull out of the treaty.

1:28:31.800 --> 1:28:34.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure there must be some you know, if Trump

1:28:34.520 --> 1:28:35.920
<v Speaker 1>is doing it, it has to be bad. There are

1:28:35.920 --> 1:28:37.600
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people out there that will think that.

1:28:37.720 --> 1:28:41.000
<v Speaker 1>And so what are they going to say? This is destabilizing,

1:28:41.080 --> 1:28:45.240
<v Speaker 1>this is Trump pushing us to nuclear war. So the arguments,

1:28:44.960 --> 1:28:48.560
<v Speaker 1>it's so the arguments for those who so I support this,

1:28:48.680 --> 1:28:51.200
<v Speaker 1>I support this. I think that you know, for too

1:28:51.240 --> 1:28:54.360
<v Speaker 1>long the United States has thought that we call its

1:28:54.479 --> 1:28:56.760
<v Speaker 1>arms control. These are the treaties we have with other

1:28:56.760 --> 1:28:59.800
<v Speaker 1>countries that constrain those parties to the treaties from what

1:29:00.080 --> 1:29:02.680
<v Speaker 1>can deploy, things that they can possess, different types of

1:29:02.680 --> 1:29:05.640
<v Speaker 1>missiles they can possess, and more head numbers, etc. And

1:29:06.160 --> 1:29:07.759
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people who have a lot of confidence

1:29:07.760 --> 1:29:11.000
<v Speaker 1>in these agreements think that these by having these treaties,

1:29:11.040 --> 1:29:15.040
<v Speaker 1>that the world is safer and more stabilizing. But both

1:29:15.120 --> 1:29:18.480
<v Speaker 1>parties have to abide by them, otherwise it just constrains

1:29:18.479 --> 1:29:21.759
<v Speaker 1>the United States just ties our hands and doesn't constrain stairs.

1:29:22.120 --> 1:29:24.200
<v Speaker 1>So I think it makes a load of sense to

1:29:24.240 --> 1:29:26.320
<v Speaker 1>get out of treaties in which the United States know

1:29:26.800 --> 1:29:29.160
<v Speaker 1>we abide by treaties like boy Scouts because we're Americans.

1:29:29.200 --> 1:29:31.479
<v Speaker 1>It's how we do it. Countries like Russia just try

1:29:31.479 --> 1:29:34.480
<v Speaker 1>to cheat. They treat on the margins, they cheat outright sometimes,

1:29:34.560 --> 1:29:36.760
<v Speaker 1>and then the United States continues to try to get

1:29:36.760 --> 1:29:39.479
<v Speaker 1>them to comply. So the fear is here for those

1:29:39.479 --> 1:29:42.080
<v Speaker 1>who think we should be party to this treaty or

1:29:42.120 --> 1:29:43.880
<v Speaker 1>to continue to try to get the Russians to comply

1:29:43.960 --> 1:29:45.920
<v Speaker 1>and stay in the treaty. They fear that there's going

1:29:45.960 --> 1:29:49.200
<v Speaker 1>to be an armed race if we get out of

1:29:49.200 --> 1:29:52.360
<v Speaker 1>the treaty. But my argument to that is, but the

1:29:52.439 --> 1:29:57.000
<v Speaker 1>Russians are already doing it. The Russians are already developing

1:29:57.040 --> 1:29:59.960
<v Speaker 1>and deploying these missiles, So we're not going to incentivize

1:30:00.040 --> 1:30:02.320
<v Speaker 1>them to do the thing that they're already doing. It

1:30:02.439 --> 1:30:06.360
<v Speaker 1>just now gives us the option to one, perhaps that

1:30:07.160 --> 1:30:09.800
<v Speaker 1>deploy these things back in the European theater, if we

1:30:09.840 --> 1:30:13.040
<v Speaker 1>believe that that's what we need to deter Russia, or

1:30:13.040 --> 1:30:16.920
<v Speaker 1>perhaps in the Asian theater, because the Chinese have never

1:30:16.960 --> 1:30:21.040
<v Speaker 1>been party to this treaty, and if the Chinese were

1:30:21.160 --> 1:30:23.840
<v Speaker 1>party to the treaty, more than ninety percent of their

1:30:23.960 --> 1:30:26.479
<v Speaker 1>entire missile force would be in violation of it. It's

1:30:26.479 --> 1:30:29.120
<v Speaker 1>basically like their entire missile force as I n F

1:30:29.280 --> 1:30:32.559
<v Speaker 1>noncompliant missiles if they were party to the treaty. And

1:30:32.600 --> 1:30:35.160
<v Speaker 1>so this gives the United States an option now to

1:30:35.200 --> 1:30:37.559
<v Speaker 1>look at different theaters and say, hey, maybe we might

1:30:37.640 --> 1:30:43.040
<v Speaker 1>want to invest in this particular weapons system. Again, also politics, right,

1:30:43.120 --> 1:30:44.519
<v Speaker 1>they're going to be able to look at this through

1:30:44.560 --> 1:30:47.040
<v Speaker 1>that lens. Here's what Kelly ha and Conway had to

1:30:47.040 --> 1:30:49.639
<v Speaker 1>say after the announcement came out today. Yeah, well, he's

1:30:49.640 --> 1:30:51.200
<v Speaker 1>been tough on Russia for a while, and I would

1:30:51.240 --> 1:30:52.720
<v Speaker 1>like to see how they're going to spin this one.

1:30:53.360 --> 1:30:58.240
<v Speaker 1>This is a president who has put additional sanctions on Russians,

1:30:58.280 --> 1:31:00.800
<v Speaker 1>on bad actors where he and his Treasury Department have

1:31:00.920 --> 1:31:04.400
<v Speaker 1>seen fit. He's expelled sixty plus Russians from this country,

1:31:04.439 --> 1:31:07.559
<v Speaker 1>shut down two of their consulates at last count, and

1:31:07.600 --> 1:31:09.960
<v Speaker 1>I think pushed back on Putin at once but twice

1:31:10.479 --> 1:31:14.080
<v Speaker 1>when one of his puppets, Assad in Syria gassed his

1:31:14.520 --> 1:31:18.160
<v Speaker 1>own people. When the President saw that, he took action immediately.

1:31:18.560 --> 1:31:20.200
<v Speaker 1>People have to start looking at the facts and the

1:31:20.200 --> 1:31:22.200
<v Speaker 1>figures about how tough this president has been on Russia

1:31:22.200 --> 1:31:25.519
<v Speaker 1>at the same time trying to negotiate peace where he

1:31:25.560 --> 1:31:29.600
<v Speaker 1>can and big resolved by two major countries where it's appropriate.

1:31:29.960 --> 1:31:32.200
<v Speaker 1>What do you make of this? I mean, we always

1:31:32.320 --> 1:31:35.879
<v Speaker 1>hear from at least some of the media that Trump

1:31:36.200 --> 1:31:39.000
<v Speaker 1>is not just soft on Russia, but he's Putin's puppet.

1:31:39.000 --> 1:31:41.400
<v Speaker 1>People actually say this kind of stuff, and yet you

1:31:41.479 --> 1:31:45.040
<v Speaker 1>just heard that recitation of different facts from Kelly Ann Conway.

1:31:45.080 --> 1:31:46.519
<v Speaker 1>I could throw a few others in there too that

1:31:46.600 --> 1:31:49.960
<v Speaker 1>she left off. What do you make of it? I

1:31:50.000 --> 1:31:53.080
<v Speaker 1>think that Kelly An Conway is exactly right. Listen, I've

1:31:53.120 --> 1:31:56.479
<v Speaker 1>been watching I Nuclear Deterrent. I've been you know, that's

1:31:56.520 --> 1:31:59.599
<v Speaker 1>kind of my main area of specialty. I focus on

1:31:59.800 --> 1:32:02.720
<v Speaker 1>US Russia relations, US China relations because these are the

1:32:02.720 --> 1:32:05.439
<v Speaker 1>great powers that have a lot of nuclear weapons. So

1:32:05.520 --> 1:32:07.719
<v Speaker 1>this is an area that I focused on for many years.

1:32:08.160 --> 1:32:10.320
<v Speaker 1>And a lot of people have asked me, Rebecca, aren't

1:32:10.360 --> 1:32:12.479
<v Speaker 1>you worried about Trump? Aren't you worried that the Russians

1:32:12.479 --> 1:32:16.679
<v Speaker 1>have something on Trump that could harm US security? And

1:32:16.720 --> 1:32:21.599
<v Speaker 1>I have said since he was the Republican nominee, you know,

1:32:21.640 --> 1:32:23.719
<v Speaker 1>and since then, I'm going to be able to tell

1:32:24.000 --> 1:32:26.599
<v Speaker 1>if there's something on Trump by the way he conducts

1:32:26.680 --> 1:32:30.640
<v Speaker 1>US foreign policy views of the Russia, and Kelly and

1:32:30.720 --> 1:32:33.960
<v Speaker 1>Kanway is exactly right. This administration has been far tougher

1:32:34.000 --> 1:32:38.000
<v Speaker 1>as a matter of policy on Russia in doing what

1:32:38.040 --> 1:32:42.480
<v Speaker 1>the United States needs to do, not looking to aggravate Russia,

1:32:42.560 --> 1:32:46.080
<v Speaker 1>but to look but to pursue US interests, regardless of

1:32:46.120 --> 1:32:48.080
<v Speaker 1>if the Russians complain about what the thing is that

1:32:48.120 --> 1:32:51.680
<v Speaker 1>we're doing. And I support presidents trying to look for

1:32:51.720 --> 1:32:54.800
<v Speaker 1>opportunities to extend an open hand to Russia where we

1:32:54.800 --> 1:32:56.680
<v Speaker 1>can get along with them, because what we don't want

1:32:56.680 --> 1:32:59.200
<v Speaker 1>to happen is an alliance between Russia and China. If

1:32:59.200 --> 1:33:02.200
<v Speaker 1>we can find opportunities to cooperate with the Russians so

1:33:02.240 --> 1:33:05.960
<v Speaker 1>that we can count our rising China, then we should

1:33:05.960 --> 1:33:08.720
<v Speaker 1>do that. If we can find counter terrorism opportunities to

1:33:08.720 --> 1:33:11.320
<v Speaker 1>work together, we should do that. And we should pursue

1:33:11.320 --> 1:33:14.360
<v Speaker 1>our interests like like the I n F treaty for instance.

1:33:14.360 --> 1:33:16.200
<v Speaker 1>If they're not going to comply, then we don't. We

1:33:16.200 --> 1:33:19.759
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't be party to that treaty. So Kelly and Conway

1:33:19.840 --> 1:33:22.880
<v Speaker 1>is exactly right. And you can see now the same

1:33:22.920 --> 1:33:25.680
<v Speaker 1>people who accuse President Trump of being an agent of

1:33:25.680 --> 1:33:28.479
<v Speaker 1>the Russian government are pretty quiet now when it comes

1:33:28.479 --> 1:33:30.600
<v Speaker 1>to the ion F treaty, or they're saying, oh no,

1:33:30.760 --> 1:33:33.400
<v Speaker 1>the are going to aggravate Putin. You know, they're kind

1:33:33.439 --> 1:33:35.960
<v Speaker 1>of all over the board on this. So the President

1:33:35.960 --> 1:33:38.960
<v Speaker 1>Trump does not get enough credit for leading an American

1:33:39.000 --> 1:33:42.679
<v Speaker 1>foreign policy that's good for the United States and tous

1:33:42.760 --> 1:33:45.440
<v Speaker 1>when the Russia tuf one Russia when the Russian needs

1:33:45.520 --> 1:33:49.360
<v Speaker 1>need it, and its farm truffer than the Obama administration

1:33:49.520 --> 1:33:54.559
<v Speaker 1>was by far. Rebecca Hinrich everybody Hudson Institute Senior Fellow

1:33:55.360 --> 1:33:58.400
<v Speaker 1>Hudson Hudson Institute dot org. Check out her latest research

1:33:58.439 --> 1:34:01.200
<v Speaker 1>there and you'll see her on Fox News. Rebecca, great

1:34:01.200 --> 1:34:02.719
<v Speaker 1>to have you on. Thanks so much, have a good weekend.

1:34:04.040 --> 1:34:16.080
<v Speaker 1>We right back, team Hey, Team Buck, It's time for

1:34:16.240 --> 1:34:28.000
<v Speaker 1>roll call. And I didn't pick that. I didn't pick

1:34:28.080 --> 1:34:32.000
<v Speaker 1>the best weather for NYC. John. It's a little a

1:34:32.160 --> 1:34:36.080
<v Speaker 1>little bit chilly up in here. Not exactly what I

1:34:36.080 --> 1:34:38.880
<v Speaker 1>had in mind, But it was worse yesterday. Well, yeah,

1:34:38.880 --> 1:34:42.479
<v Speaker 1>it was DC yesterday. It was painful to walk around outside,

1:34:42.520 --> 1:34:45.720
<v Speaker 1>but then again, it wasn't like Chicago, where from what

1:34:45.800 --> 1:34:49.600
<v Speaker 1>I understand, people were throwing buckets of water up in

1:34:49.640 --> 1:34:53.080
<v Speaker 1>the air, and they would turn to icicles or whatever.

1:34:53.200 --> 1:34:56.680
<v Speaker 1>Not icicles, but you know, snow, yes, snow, there you go,

1:34:56.800 --> 1:34:59.479
<v Speaker 1>they turned it. That's right, they would turn to snow,

1:34:59.520 --> 1:35:03.400
<v Speaker 1>not icicle. Buck, get it together, Sexton. I am happy

1:35:03.400 --> 1:35:07.360
<v Speaker 1>that'll be up in New York City hometown, even when

1:35:07.360 --> 1:35:12.080
<v Speaker 1>it's congested and freezing and there's a lot of sludge

1:35:12.120 --> 1:35:15.280
<v Speaker 1>and snow and the snow is yellow in a lot

1:35:15.320 --> 1:35:19.479
<v Speaker 1>of places. You know, that's special New York snow. That's

1:35:19.520 --> 1:35:21.080
<v Speaker 1>the special New York snow. You know what I mean.

1:35:21.120 --> 1:35:23.840
<v Speaker 1>You're like, oh, look at that. We have multi colored

1:35:23.920 --> 1:35:26.559
<v Speaker 1>snow here in New York City. There's no place like home, right,

1:35:26.960 --> 1:35:29.880
<v Speaker 1>but I do miss it. Yeah, man, there's there's no place.

1:35:30.200 --> 1:35:32.320
<v Speaker 1>There's definitely no place like home. Is it? Is it

1:35:32.360 --> 1:35:38.000
<v Speaker 1>the best place? That's a whole other conversation. Alrighty, Jeremy,

1:35:37.760 --> 1:35:41.919
<v Speaker 1>First up on Facebook, We're gonna double the Facebook this weekend,

1:35:41.960 --> 1:35:45.200
<v Speaker 1>Facebook dot com slash Buck Sexton. That's the way to

1:35:45.280 --> 1:35:49.920
<v Speaker 1>do it. We can double that action. Here's what Jeremy says. Buck.

1:35:50.000 --> 1:35:51.920
<v Speaker 1>It has been a while, but wanted to say that

1:35:51.960 --> 1:35:54.880
<v Speaker 1>your monologue on the state of the US's military is

1:35:54.920 --> 1:35:57.680
<v Speaker 1>well done. We have fallen into a mindset that warre

1:35:57.720 --> 1:36:00.000
<v Speaker 1>in the Middle East is the norm and will never change.

1:36:00.320 --> 1:36:02.120
<v Speaker 1>It's great to hear someone on the right who calls

1:36:02.160 --> 1:36:04.599
<v Speaker 1>into question our world military presence and hope more people

1:36:04.600 --> 1:36:08.840
<v Speaker 1>will listen. Shields high, Jeremy, Well, Jeremy, I hope that

1:36:09.400 --> 1:36:12.759
<v Speaker 1>your hope comes true. I mean, I think that there's

1:36:12.800 --> 1:36:17.040
<v Speaker 1>plenty of reason and there's lots of evidence to support

1:36:17.080 --> 1:36:20.800
<v Speaker 1>the idea that we probably should not continue to do

1:36:20.840 --> 1:36:22.240
<v Speaker 1>what we're doing. I mean, I've been saying for a

1:36:22.240 --> 1:36:25.320
<v Speaker 1>long time what we're doing in Afghanistan is not going

1:36:25.360 --> 1:36:31.920
<v Speaker 1>to work. It's not going to work. Okay, So we

1:36:31.960 --> 1:36:34.640
<v Speaker 1>can talk a lot about how oh well do you

1:36:34.680 --> 1:36:36.880
<v Speaker 1>know I've been saying for how many years on this

1:36:36.880 --> 1:36:39.400
<v Speaker 1>show that the strategy is the same strategy. I mean,

1:36:39.439 --> 1:36:41.880
<v Speaker 1>you have the same strategy and the same, if not

1:36:42.000 --> 1:36:47.000
<v Speaker 1>worse factors aligned against the strategy. Your prospects for success

1:36:47.040 --> 1:36:52.120
<v Speaker 1>are dim, and that is the truth of the mission

1:36:52.160 --> 1:36:55.000
<v Speaker 1>in Afghanistan. Trying to leave a presence there to hold

1:36:55.000 --> 1:36:58.400
<v Speaker 1>it all together. That all sounds fine. People said to me, oh, buck,

1:36:58.439 --> 1:37:00.680
<v Speaker 1>but we don't have to not doing a lot of

1:37:00.680 --> 1:37:03.840
<v Speaker 1>the front line fighting. That's the Taliban, that's Afghanist I mean,

1:37:04.000 --> 1:37:07.360
<v Speaker 1>that's the Afghan National Army and the Taliban that's up

1:37:07.400 --> 1:37:09.880
<v Speaker 1>to them, and that I just say, that's all true

1:37:09.960 --> 1:37:13.160
<v Speaker 1>until things get really bad. You know, remember that your

1:37:13.200 --> 1:37:17.320
<v Speaker 1>your presence of four or five thousand soldiers becomes a

1:37:17.400 --> 1:37:21.479
<v Speaker 1>much bigger issue when the bad guys are making a

1:37:21.600 --> 1:37:24.960
<v Speaker 1>run on the capitol of the country. You know, when

1:37:25.200 --> 1:37:29.680
<v Speaker 1>the bad guys start threatening to massacre a whole division

1:37:29.840 --> 1:37:32.479
<v Speaker 1>of the Allies, that your soldiers. So, you know, if

1:37:32.520 --> 1:37:35.719
<v Speaker 1>we have four thousand Americans spread around a few bases,

1:37:35.760 --> 1:37:38.000
<v Speaker 1>let's say I think it's more like nine thousand Afghanistans.

1:37:38.080 --> 1:37:40.240
<v Speaker 1>Let's say it's let's say it's ten thousand. You've got

1:37:40.280 --> 1:37:47.080
<v Speaker 1>ten thousand Americans spread around Afghanistan. Okay. What happens when

1:37:47.840 --> 1:37:51.160
<v Speaker 1>you see an Afghan Army division completely encircled by Taliban

1:37:51.320 --> 1:37:55.599
<v Speaker 1>in Helman Province? Okay, yeah, sure, we'll deploy air assets.

1:37:55.600 --> 1:37:59.160
<v Speaker 1>What if that's not enough, then we're gonna send our

1:37:59.200 --> 1:38:04.599
<v Speaker 1>guys in. What if the Taliban has twenty thousand, Now

1:38:04.600 --> 1:38:06.559
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna do what you see, all of a sudden,

1:38:07.520 --> 1:38:09.479
<v Speaker 1>you get pushed into the well. We better do a

1:38:09.520 --> 1:38:12.200
<v Speaker 1>lot more or else our soldiers are going to be

1:38:12.280 --> 1:38:14.559
<v Speaker 1>under real threat. And that's that's where this starts to

1:38:14.560 --> 1:38:22.040
<v Speaker 1>become I think, a very big problem, very quickly. All right, Mike,

1:38:22.560 --> 1:38:24.920
<v Speaker 1>what Mike? Mike writes buck any thoughts on the peace

1:38:24.960 --> 1:38:28.559
<v Speaker 1>negotiations in Afghanistan with the Taliban and the era of Trump.

1:38:28.600 --> 1:38:30.920
<v Speaker 1>It's hard to get news on something like that. Thanks

1:38:31.439 --> 1:38:34.000
<v Speaker 1>Shields High. Well, Mike, I was just kind of turns

1:38:34.040 --> 1:38:38.120
<v Speaker 1>out I was just kind of talking about it, you know.

1:38:38.400 --> 1:38:43.719
<v Speaker 1>I think that here's the reality. There's very little reason

1:38:43.880 --> 1:38:47.479
<v Speaker 1>to believe that whatever deal that we have with the

1:38:47.520 --> 1:38:51.080
<v Speaker 1>Taliban will be respected for any length of time by

1:38:51.120 --> 1:38:54.599
<v Speaker 1>the Taliban. They will, they'll adhere to the deal until

1:38:54.600 --> 1:38:56.439
<v Speaker 1>it's no longer in their interest to do so. The

1:38:56.520 --> 1:39:00.000
<v Speaker 1>Taliban has no honor, there's no agreement, there's no agreement

1:39:00.040 --> 1:39:01.960
<v Speaker 1>that they can sign with us that we should expect

1:39:02.040 --> 1:39:07.200
<v Speaker 1>them to maintain. So that's what I've got for you

1:39:07.240 --> 1:39:09.720
<v Speaker 1>all that. I mean, it's unfortunate but true, But that

1:39:09.760 --> 1:39:13.479
<v Speaker 1>doesn't mean we shouldn't leave. Staying forever is not a

1:39:13.520 --> 1:39:16.000
<v Speaker 1>good idea. And I was just explaining why. You'll hear

1:39:16.000 --> 1:39:18.880
<v Speaker 1>a lot of conservatives saying, oh, it's just a maintenance. President, No,

1:39:19.080 --> 1:39:22.280
<v Speaker 1>Afghanistan is an active combat zone. It's not South Korea,

1:39:22.360 --> 1:39:27.800
<v Speaker 1>it's not Germany, it's not you know, Guam. This is

1:39:27.840 --> 1:39:32.160
<v Speaker 1>a place where you could have a division level military

1:39:32.200 --> 1:39:36.400
<v Speaker 1>engagement that would require a much larger scale of US

1:39:36.520 --> 1:39:40.680
<v Speaker 1>military support. And that's how Mission Creep happens. That's how

1:39:40.720 --> 1:39:47.040
<v Speaker 1>these things occur. All right, let's see here, Mark, right, Buck,

1:39:47.040 --> 1:39:51.160
<v Speaker 1>could you please explain why the left hates rich people

1:39:51.640 --> 1:39:55.280
<v Speaker 1>that were made rich by the left that hates them

1:39:55.640 --> 1:39:59.760
<v Speaker 1>by purchasing the products from them that made them richet

1:39:59.800 --> 1:40:02.800
<v Speaker 1>the love the leftist rich politicians that they made rich

1:40:02.840 --> 1:40:05.120
<v Speaker 1>for voting them. I understand the left things tax money

1:40:05.120 --> 1:40:11.040
<v Speaker 1>disappears at a nowhere, but are they that dumb? Mark? Yeah,

1:40:11.080 --> 1:40:13.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm just gonna go with yeah on that one. We

1:40:13.360 --> 1:40:14.840
<v Speaker 1>ran around in a little bit of a circle there,

1:40:14.880 --> 1:40:18.760
<v Speaker 1>But I think I know what you're going for. Tera Hey, Buck,

1:40:18.840 --> 1:40:21.559
<v Speaker 1>love the show as always. Do you know whatever happened

1:40:21.600 --> 1:40:24.559
<v Speaker 1>to the Maga bomber? Keep up the gray work shield

1:40:24.640 --> 1:40:26.439
<v Speaker 1>side terror, you know. I will tell you I have

1:40:26.439 --> 1:40:30.479
<v Speaker 1>actually not seen any follow up stories of any kind

1:40:30.640 --> 1:40:34.559
<v Speaker 1>about the Maga bomber. I am not familiar with what

1:40:34.600 --> 1:40:38.080
<v Speaker 1>the latest information is on him. I'm assuming you mean

1:40:38.120 --> 1:40:43.040
<v Speaker 1>the guy who was in the magamobile in Florida who

1:40:43.120 --> 1:40:45.680
<v Speaker 1>was sending pipe bombs. I always wanted to know if

1:40:45.880 --> 1:40:51.600
<v Speaker 1>those pipe bombs were if those pipe bombs were active devices,

1:40:51.760 --> 1:40:54.360
<v Speaker 1>or if they were dummy devices. I know there was

1:40:54.400 --> 1:40:56.760
<v Speaker 1>some reporting it said that they were lethal devices, but

1:40:58.160 --> 1:41:03.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm curious when they pulled them apart, what the reality was. Jerry.

1:41:03.640 --> 1:41:06.440
<v Speaker 1>Someone at work asked the question about late term abortions,

1:41:06.960 --> 1:41:09.880
<v Speaker 1>is this a new method for harvesting stem cells? Just

1:41:09.920 --> 1:41:12.320
<v Speaker 1>wondering if you have insight, Jerry, I don't think it's

1:41:12.320 --> 1:41:15.080
<v Speaker 1>a new method for harvesting stem cells. Although what we

1:41:15.120 --> 1:41:18.760
<v Speaker 1>saw from the undercover Planned Parenthood videos taken by the

1:41:18.960 --> 1:41:22.880
<v Speaker 1>Center for Medical Progress David de Layden and his group

1:41:23.479 --> 1:41:28.840
<v Speaker 1>is that they do sell the soon to what would

1:41:28.880 --> 1:41:34.280
<v Speaker 1>be otherwise discarded tissue. They do sell it for They're

1:41:34.280 --> 1:41:36.599
<v Speaker 1>not supposed to sell it for a profit, but they

1:41:36.640 --> 1:41:40.720
<v Speaker 1>do so that there is a financial incentive in the

1:41:40.760 --> 1:41:44.680
<v Speaker 1>abortion industry, and we would be fooling ourselves if we

1:41:44.680 --> 1:41:49.160
<v Speaker 1>were not aware of it. Bruce oh Man, Bruce, You're

1:41:49.200 --> 1:41:53.280
<v Speaker 1>opening monologue on the podcast for January thirtieth made me

1:41:53.360 --> 1:41:56.519
<v Speaker 1>tear up how the hell are democrats so evil in America?

1:41:56.560 --> 1:41:58.479
<v Speaker 1>Sale so okay with this? Just want to put my

1:41:58.520 --> 1:42:03.240
<v Speaker 1>hands on my head in the sands sometimes and give up. Oh, Bruce,

1:42:03.400 --> 1:42:06.680
<v Speaker 1>I appreciate that you also feel the passion for the

1:42:06.720 --> 1:42:09.800
<v Speaker 1>topic and the subject matter that I do. And you know,

1:42:09.880 --> 1:42:12.280
<v Speaker 1>I've gotten a little triad on this show more than one.

1:42:12.360 --> 1:42:16.519
<v Speaker 1>So it definitely happens. And in terms of where the

1:42:16.520 --> 1:42:19.519
<v Speaker 1>Democrats are on this, you know, I saw a Washington

1:42:19.520 --> 1:42:22.519
<v Speaker 1>Post reporter say that he considered this to be a

1:42:22.600 --> 1:42:26.960
<v Speaker 1>local news story, and to that I just would respond,

1:42:28.400 --> 1:42:31.599
<v Speaker 1>It's not a local news story when two of the

1:42:31.600 --> 1:42:37.160
<v Speaker 1>most major states in the United States are legalizing what

1:42:37.400 --> 1:42:41.000
<v Speaker 1>is clearly infanticide. Even if, and this is an important

1:42:41.280 --> 1:42:45.200
<v Speaker 1>and important part of all this, even if what could

1:42:45.240 --> 1:42:49.439
<v Speaker 1>happen never does happen, which is not the case, but if,

1:42:49.520 --> 1:42:51.559
<v Speaker 1>just for the sake of argument, even if they were

1:42:51.600 --> 1:42:56.040
<v Speaker 1>saying that nobody would kill a baby that was being

1:42:56.160 --> 1:43:00.160
<v Speaker 1>born under these laws in New York and in Virginia,

1:43:00.479 --> 1:43:04.920
<v Speaker 1>the fact that it would, in theory be legal is

1:43:05.080 --> 1:43:10.920
<v Speaker 1>grotesquely immoral and says very bad things about the state

1:43:11.000 --> 1:43:14.519
<v Speaker 1>of well, the state of ethics in this country, the

1:43:14.520 --> 1:43:18.840
<v Speaker 1>state of the law in this country. Al all rights

1:43:19.720 --> 1:43:24.880
<v Speaker 1>bonfire of progressive lunacy quote. Nice, thanks Al. I try

1:43:24.880 --> 1:43:27.400
<v Speaker 1>to go for the rhetorical flourishes sometimes, you know, trying

1:43:27.400 --> 1:43:30.200
<v Speaker 1>to make sure that everybody listens to the show gets

1:43:31.280 --> 1:43:32.920
<v Speaker 1>they get. Well. I was gonna say, get their money's worth,

1:43:32.960 --> 1:43:34.599
<v Speaker 1>but the show is free, so I guess get their

1:43:34.640 --> 1:43:36.320
<v Speaker 1>time's worth. There you go, try to make sure you

1:43:36.320 --> 1:43:40.200
<v Speaker 1>get your time's worth, which is an important thing. John

1:43:40.280 --> 1:43:43.880
<v Speaker 1>writes buck huge fan. I want to see another shutdown

1:43:44.240 --> 1:43:46.160
<v Speaker 1>because if they see it's gonna happen again, and if

1:43:46.160 --> 1:43:48.280
<v Speaker 1>it lasts way longer, it will scare the DEM base

1:43:48.360 --> 1:43:51.120
<v Speaker 1>because they saw what happened before. I don't want it

1:43:51.160 --> 1:43:52.960
<v Speaker 1>to happen again, and I believe the DEM base will

1:43:53.000 --> 1:43:57.280
<v Speaker 1>force Pelosi's hand. I don't know, John Pelosi is uh.

1:43:57.800 --> 1:43:59.599
<v Speaker 1>There's a lot of a lot of criticism. I have

1:43:59.680 --> 1:44:04.200
<v Speaker 1>heard Pelosi's pretty hardcore, and she will stick. She will

1:44:04.200 --> 1:44:06.439
<v Speaker 1>stick to her side of things, no matter I think

1:44:06.760 --> 1:44:10.479
<v Speaker 1>how much the heat gets turned up because she gets reelected.

1:44:10.520 --> 1:44:13.960
<v Speaker 1>No matter what. Remember that there is no there is

1:44:14.000 --> 1:44:16.720
<v Speaker 1>no sanity check on Nancy Pelosi because her district is

1:44:16.720 --> 1:44:21.000
<v Speaker 1>full of a bunch of maniacs. So there's that. As

1:44:21.040 --> 1:44:23.840
<v Speaker 1>to whether a shutdown would accomplish No, I think Democrats

1:44:24.120 --> 1:44:26.720
<v Speaker 1>would be even more embolded in a second shutdown to

1:44:26.760 --> 1:44:28.800
<v Speaker 1>do what they've done, even though what we see is

1:44:28.840 --> 1:44:31.880
<v Speaker 1>it Pelosi said, Hey, open the government up and we

1:44:31.920 --> 1:44:34.400
<v Speaker 1>will negotiate and we'll talk about fixing the wall. And

1:44:34.439 --> 1:44:39.439
<v Speaker 1>then then Trump opens up the government and they say, sorry,

1:44:39.479 --> 1:44:43.479
<v Speaker 1>no funding for a wall, full stop, period, nothing else.

1:44:43.640 --> 1:44:48.080
<v Speaker 1>I just think that's that's telling us a lot about her,

1:44:48.080 --> 1:44:52.479
<v Speaker 1>but unfortunately won't really matter. Robert Rents book. As much

1:44:52.479 --> 1:44:55.080
<v Speaker 1>as I hate to agree with Rachel Maddow, she isn't

1:44:55.320 --> 1:44:57.760
<v Speaker 1>entirely incorrect when she suggests that a foreign power like

1:44:57.840 --> 1:45:00.720
<v Speaker 1>China or Russia could take out part or all of

1:45:00.720 --> 1:45:03.559
<v Speaker 1>the power grid, a local hacker could do damage. They

1:45:03.600 --> 1:45:05.360
<v Speaker 1>don't do it because we view it as the equivalent

1:45:05.360 --> 1:45:10.439
<v Speaker 1>of a nuclear or the near equivalent of a nuclear attack. Robert,

1:45:10.479 --> 1:45:12.519
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying that it couldn't happen. I'm just saying

1:45:12.560 --> 1:45:16.240
<v Speaker 1>it's part of the only reason the MSNBC audience. And

1:45:16.320 --> 1:45:19.280
<v Speaker 1>remember Rachel matt I was trying to every night give

1:45:19.320 --> 1:45:23.280
<v Speaker 1>the MSNBC audience what they want. That's her job. Her

1:45:23.400 --> 1:45:26.519
<v Speaker 1>job is to give the left wing loons who watched

1:45:26.600 --> 1:45:28.920
<v Speaker 1>that show what they want, tell them what they want

1:45:28.920 --> 1:45:31.360
<v Speaker 1>to hear, you know, show them what they want to see.

1:45:31.400 --> 1:45:33.840
<v Speaker 1>That's the whole point of it. And the reason that

1:45:33.960 --> 1:45:37.439
<v Speaker 1>Russia is high up on their you know, in terms

1:45:37.439 --> 1:45:40.040
<v Speaker 1>of interest level here. The reason they like Russia is

1:45:40.040 --> 1:45:43.880
<v Speaker 1>because Russia has turned into the Left has turned it

1:45:43.960 --> 1:45:47.920
<v Speaker 1>into the number one boogeyman for the United States now

1:45:48.240 --> 1:45:51.240
<v Speaker 1>because they gave Trump the election. That's that's what this

1:45:51.320 --> 1:45:55.080
<v Speaker 1>is really all about. So I think that's that's why

1:45:55.120 --> 1:45:57.400
<v Speaker 1>I was pointing to the Russia thing. Yes, technically they

1:45:57.400 --> 1:45:59.320
<v Speaker 1>could take down the power grid, but do you think

1:45:59.360 --> 1:46:01.519
<v Speaker 1>the left really worries about that as a general national

1:46:01.560 --> 1:46:04.920
<v Speaker 1>security issue. No, it's just Russia scary, that's all they

1:46:04.960 --> 1:46:08.320
<v Speaker 1>want to say. That's what it is. That's what it

1:46:08.400 --> 1:46:11.479
<v Speaker 1>is really about. So quick pause here, team, we're gonna

1:46:11.479 --> 1:46:13.639
<v Speaker 1>come right back, finish up the roll. Call some thoughts

1:46:13.640 --> 1:46:16.360
<v Speaker 1>for the weekend. It's going to be an extravaganza of awesome.

1:46:16.680 --> 1:46:18.519
<v Speaker 1>John looks so excited. I even know what to say,

1:46:18.520 --> 1:46:20.519
<v Speaker 1>because he knows he's got a weekend coming up. Any

1:46:30.320 --> 1:46:33.639
<v Speaker 1>and uh my bad, I got that wrong once before

1:46:33.720 --> 1:46:36.400
<v Speaker 1>Netflix and hang out is okay. You can netflix and

1:46:36.479 --> 1:46:40.160
<v Speaker 1>hang out and eat some you know, mac and cheese. Man, dude,

1:46:40.200 --> 1:46:43.880
<v Speaker 1>frozen mac and cheese so good. So I want to

1:46:43.880 --> 1:46:47.880
<v Speaker 1>have some right now. We'll be right back. Ain't no

1:46:48.040 --> 1:46:51.040

1:46:51.160 --> 1:47:00.759
<v Speaker 1>party don't stop. Yeah, we got Buck turned up to eleven.

1:47:34.560 --> 1:47:38.840
<v Speaker 1>you tell me more about yourself? I went to Connecticut College, Okay, Chris.

1:47:39.600 --> 1:47:43.040
<v Speaker 1>I was born and raised in New York City, in Manhattan.

1:47:43.960 --> 1:47:47.040
<v Speaker 1>I went to Regis High School, which is a Jesuit

1:47:47.080 --> 1:47:49.040
<v Speaker 1>school here in the city. Then I went to Amherst College.

1:47:49.040 --> 1:47:51.960
<v Speaker 1>Then I got recruited by the CIA. I worked in

1:47:51.960 --> 1:47:54.240
<v Speaker 1>the CIA from two thousand and five. At two thousand

1:47:54.320 --> 1:47:57.719
<v Speaker 1>and ten, worked at the NYPD Intelligence Division. For part

1:47:57.800 --> 1:48:00.800
<v Speaker 1>of twenty eleven, went to the Lays to work for

1:48:00.840 --> 1:48:04.880
<v Speaker 1>Glenn Beck and twenty midway through twenty eleven and stayed

1:48:04.880 --> 1:48:07.200
<v Speaker 1>there for about six years. Then got a job at

1:48:07.200 --> 1:48:09.760
<v Speaker 1>Premiere Radio Networks. Blah blah, a lot of radio, a

1:48:09.800 --> 1:48:12.400
<v Speaker 1>lot of TV, Fox News, wrote a bunch of articles

1:48:13.160 --> 1:48:18.000
<v Speaker 1>and owned some libs on Twitter, and now here we are.

1:48:20.840 --> 1:48:23.599
<v Speaker 1>You got a girlfriend named Miss Molly and nice family

1:48:23.640 --> 1:48:28.000
<v Speaker 1>here in the city. And I got a yeah, a

1:48:28.000 --> 1:48:31.000
<v Speaker 1>French bulldog named to Lula. That's really my parents French bulldog,

1:48:31.040 --> 1:48:33.040
<v Speaker 1>but we all share her because she's a little love bug.

1:48:33.720 --> 1:48:36.320
<v Speaker 1>And that's pretty much it. Man, that's covered it. We got.

1:48:36.760 --> 1:48:39.679
<v Speaker 1>We got producer Mike and DJ John in the house

1:48:39.800 --> 1:48:42.760
<v Speaker 1>making sure the show sounds good, does what it does.

1:48:43.560 --> 1:48:46.200
<v Speaker 1>So I think you know everything now, man. See that's there.

1:48:46.240 --> 1:48:48.880
<v Speaker 1>You go put that in your pipe and smoke it.

1:48:48.960 --> 1:48:51.479
<v Speaker 1>Thanks for asking. If you're a Connecticut college, you're a

1:48:51.520 --> 1:48:54.840
<v Speaker 1>small liberal arts college guy. Hopefully you're not getting too

1:48:54.960 --> 1:48:59.960
<v Speaker 1>inundated with crazy libs. Razy libs, because a lot of

1:49:00.040 --> 1:49:05.200
<v Speaker 1>crazy lives run around Tia, writes Buck regarding schools being

1:49:05.240 --> 1:49:07.800
<v Speaker 1>closed due to cold I'm all for it. When the

1:49:07.840 --> 1:49:10.479
<v Speaker 1>temp is mine is twenty in Kentucky, which isn't used

1:49:10.520 --> 1:49:13.240
<v Speaker 1>to those extremes. People aren't equipped in short notice to

1:49:13.360 --> 1:49:15.960
<v Speaker 1>deal with it. For example, waiting at a bus stop

1:49:15.960 --> 1:49:17.719
<v Speaker 1>in those temps, you would probably need a ski mask

1:49:17.800 --> 1:49:21.160
<v Speaker 1>to cover your whole face. I live in Virginia and

1:49:21.240 --> 1:49:24.200
<v Speaker 1>haven't seen ski masks in stores since the nineteen seventies, which,

1:49:24.240 --> 1:49:26.160
<v Speaker 1>by the way, is when running shoes came to stores.

1:49:26.520 --> 1:49:29.320
<v Speaker 1>In nineteen seventy three, we were still wearing kids to

1:49:29.479 --> 1:49:34.160
<v Speaker 1>gym class. A lot of information in there. Yeah, really

1:49:34.160 --> 1:49:36.320
<v Speaker 1>cold weather can be tough. I'm not saying it's not.

1:49:37.680 --> 1:49:43.920
<v Speaker 1>I get that, Tim. What up? Tim? Did you see

1:49:43.960 --> 1:49:48.400
<v Speaker 1>this AOC sketch on s n L. No? I did not, Tim,

1:49:48.439 --> 1:49:52.160
<v Speaker 1>But you know what, I will. I will check it out.

1:49:52.320 --> 1:49:54.920
<v Speaker 1>Maybe it was actually funny. That sounds like something that

1:49:54.960 --> 1:49:57.280
<v Speaker 1>maybe Saturday Night Live should try to do more often

1:49:57.760 --> 1:50:04.759
<v Speaker 1>be funny instead of being being social justice warriors. David

1:50:04.800 --> 1:50:09.320
<v Speaker 1>writes Buck Michael Savage was onto something border language and culture. Also,

1:50:09.400 --> 1:50:13.040
<v Speaker 1>liberalism is a mental disorder. I couldn't agree more these days.

1:50:13.680 --> 1:50:16.439
<v Speaker 1>You know I've listened to I've never listened to a

1:50:16.479 --> 1:50:22.000
<v Speaker 1>Michael Savage show, and I've only heard a few excerpts

1:50:22.040 --> 1:50:26.280
<v Speaker 1>of some monologues. He's done. He's probably the host that

1:50:26.360 --> 1:50:29.080
<v Speaker 1>I know, the national level radio host that I know

1:50:29.160 --> 1:50:32.479
<v Speaker 1>the least about. But if you say he's got something good,

1:50:32.800 --> 1:50:35.879
<v Speaker 1>I'll be sure to check it out. Isn't he retiring?

1:50:36.000 --> 1:50:42.160
<v Speaker 1>I thought somebody told me he retired. Spencer Buck finally
