1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,720 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of The Clay Travison buck Sexton 2 00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:08,720 Speaker 1: Show podcast. Welcome in Tuesday edition Clay Travis buck Sexton Show. 3 00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:13,399 Speaker 1: Appreciate all of you hanging out with us. We have 4 00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:17,000 Speaker 1: got so much to dive into, but we begin with 5 00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:22,919 Speaker 1: the pain of Joe Biden's continued failure in economic policies. 6 00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:27,280 Speaker 1: Remember when James Carville said in nineteen ninety two, it's 7 00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:30,800 Speaker 1: the economy stupid. I would say to everyone out there 8 00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:34,680 Speaker 1: that is gearing up for the mid terms, everybody who 9 00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 1: was in competitive races, it's the economy stupid. New numbers 10 00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:45,440 Speaker 1: out on inflation and they are not good, not good 11 00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:52,240 Speaker 1: at all, worse than expectations, still over eight percent. Stock 12 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 1: market has responded in an awful way. The Dow down 13 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 1: as we began the show around six hundred and fifth 14 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 1: points S and P five hundred down over two percent. 15 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 1: These are massive drops. The expectation was inflation was not 16 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 1: going to continue to be the boogeyman. Economists bought into 17 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 1: some of the lies being peddled by Joe Biden. A 18 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 1: lot of you did not, because you see the impact 19 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:25,320 Speaker 1: of inflation every day in your real world. Many people 20 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 1: have just used gas prices as a proxy of inflation. Unfortunately, 21 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 1: there are many things that are wrong with this current economy. 22 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:40,759 Speaker 1: From the house GOP account, gas utilities up thirty three percent, 23 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:45,839 Speaker 1: electricity up just shy of sixteen percent, food at home 24 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 1: up thirteen point five percent, transportation costs up eleven point 25 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 1: three percent, new cars up ten percent, food away from 26 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 1: home up eight percent, used cars up big, Your cost 27 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: of your rent, your shelter up massively. Buck, this is 28 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 1: not going away. And as if to prove that he 29 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 1: is the most tone deaf and awful president of any 30 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: of our lives, you can't even make this up. Today, 31 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 1: at three o'clock Eastern, Joe Biden has scheduled a celebration 32 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 1: for the Inflation Reduction Act. I say that sarcastically because that, unfortunately, 33 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 1: is the name of the massive federal spending bill which 34 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 1: every independent economic analyst says will either do nothing to 35 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:41,919 Speaker 1: inflation or actually make it worse. And here we are 36 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: still sitting at forty year worst average inflation, and it's 37 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: not getting any better. And Buck, I think it's fair 38 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 1: to say that October, the last number that we will 39 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 1: see before the midterms, is still going to be around 40 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 1: eight percent. Forty year inflation highs are not going away. 41 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 1: They aren't declining rapidly. The Fed is going to have 42 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 1: to raise interest rates, probably at least another three quarter points, 43 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 1: maybe multiple times before the end of the year. This 44 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 1: Biden inflation albatross is going to be longer lasting. Remember 45 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 1: all the lies they sold there's going to be transitory, 46 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 1: that it wasn't going to be very sustainable, that it 47 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 1: was Putin's gas hike, all these different things, Putin's inflation hike, 48 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 1: that's not true. Biden's been a disaster on the economy, 49 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 1: and today we got unfortunate news that it's not getting 50 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 1: better anytime soon. Everybody's also seen that the FED, which 51 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 1: is supposed to be a non political, a political instrument 52 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: of monetary policy. Of course it's political. I mean, think 53 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 1: about all the government institutions that we have been told 54 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 1: in recent years, it's just the experts doing the right stuff, 55 00:03:55,960 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 1: doing what the expertise guides them toward. CDs. See that's 56 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: a joke. FBI not looking so good. EPA a bunch 57 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: of leftist lunatics. I know. The FED is something that 58 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 1: people think of as a bunch of nerds sitting around 59 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 1: with calculators deciding the what the rate of inflation should be. 60 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 1: But obviously, Clay, they're making political calculations right now based 61 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,839 Speaker 1: upon whether or not they're going to let us do 62 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 1: what let the economy do what it clearly wants to do, 63 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 1: which is recede as in a recession, as in slowing 64 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: down the velocity of the money that has been splashing 65 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 1: all over the country and all over the world. They 66 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:41,719 Speaker 1: don't want to do it. Nobody wants to be the 67 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 1: one right now to pull off the band aid. We've 68 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 1: all been there, right, We all know you got that 69 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: scrape on the knee and looks kind of gross under there, 70 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 1: and you go, oh, this could feel just a little bit, 71 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 1: just a little bit. Jerome Palell needs to rip that 72 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: thing off. He needs to rip that band aid off. 73 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: And it's gonna suck. And that's the part of it 74 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,039 Speaker 1: that slows it down for or that's a part of 75 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: it that makes them slow it down in this way 76 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,599 Speaker 1: where we're just going a little bit by little bit. 77 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: We all know what has to happen here. We spent 78 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: as a country trillions of dollars because of COVID lockdowns. 79 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:23,359 Speaker 1: We're thirty one trillion soon in debt. People are raising 80 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 1: the alarms by this. Remember the Tea Party, Clay, but 81 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: we should go back and check what was the national 82 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 1: debt when the Tea Party ten minutes was be tricking 83 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 1: out till it's trillion. We're a thirty trillion right now. 84 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 1: We're gonna be at thirty one trillion real soon. And 85 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 1: is it a surprise to anybody that it turns out 86 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,159 Speaker 1: you can't just help people stay home. We'll send you 87 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 1: a check in the mill. Everybody gets checks. We basically 88 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 1: tried not only modern monetary theory, but universal basic income, 89 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 1: and we saw, sure enough, it is a massive, a 90 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:59,719 Speaker 1: massive failure from the perspective of a healthy economy. So 91 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 1: right now we're in this position where Democrats, you know, 92 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 1: Jerome pal obviously and the Democrats more generally are looking 93 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: at this and they're just saying, we're gonna do it little, 94 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: piece by piece, and I hope that people don't even 95 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: realize that the frog is boiling in the pot. They're 96 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: gonna turn it up degree by degree. Here's a couple 97 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 1: of other points that are out there that I think 98 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:24,359 Speaker 1: are worth making. This is from the Washington Post, so 99 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 1: it's not some right wing rag that's sharing this food 100 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,840 Speaker 1: at home, up thirteen point five percent in the past year, 101 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 1: according to Washington Post, the largest increase since nineteen seventy nine. 102 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 1: Rent is up six point seven percent in the past year, 103 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 1: the largest increase since nineteen eighty six, Electricity is up 104 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:49,280 Speaker 1: fifteen point eight percent, the largest increase since nineteen eighty one, 105 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 1: and health insurance costs are up twenty four point three percent, 106 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 1: the largest ever on record. So, if you're out there 107 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: and Democrats are trying to sell well, gas prices have 108 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 1: declined fourteen weeks in a row. First of all, they're 109 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 1: still really high, but all of these other things are 110 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: actually increasing at massive rates such that we're still running 111 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 1: at over eight percent inflation. And one more thing buck 112 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 1: that I think is key here. We've also got a 113 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: situation which is not getting enough attention, which is that 114 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 1: everybody out there, everybody out there right now is dealing 115 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 1: with real costs. And what I mean by real cost 116 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: real wages have fallen every month since Joe Biden passed 117 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 1: his one point nine trillion dollars stimulus package, which really 118 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 1: put inflation on steroids here, and that means that everybody 119 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 1: out there is actually working for less money because your 120 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 1: wages are increasing at a slower rate than the cost 121 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 1: of everything that you have to pay for. And here's 122 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: where I think we have to we have to hammer 123 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 1: home why the political vulnerability of the Democrats should be. 124 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: It should be extreme on this issue, and it should 125 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 1: be very apparent to everybody the things, because we all 126 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 1: know what their game is right now. One, it's been 127 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 1: bad for a while, so maybe people are getting used 128 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 1: to high inflation. This has been my concern for the 129 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 1: last six months on inflation, or certainly since you may 130 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: June period, is that eventually people go, well, I guess 131 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 1: inflation is just the way it is. It's lingering at 132 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: a very high level. This is a worse than expected report, 133 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,319 Speaker 1: which is always so interesting. You know, notice that they 134 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 1: expected it to be better, or the economist said, but 135 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,320 Speaker 1: it wasn't. But clay the vulnerability as I see it, 136 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 1: Forbiden the Democrats, they're gonna say, oh, but look what 137 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 1: Trump spent. Look at the debt that grew for multiple 138 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: presidents before us. It's not fair to put this all 139 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 1: on us. There is some truth to that. Because we 140 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 1: live in reality, right we are dealing in the world 141 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 1: of reality. There are some truth to that statement, but 142 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,200 Speaker 1: there would always be truth to that statement with a president, right, 143 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 1: there's a national debt, you're inheriting it, you're dealing with it. 144 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 1: The part that I think everyone needs to understand is 145 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,079 Speaker 1: what you just got into a second ago with a 146 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,839 Speaker 1: one point nine trillion dollar spending package, totally party line 147 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 1: Democrat at the start of Biden's presidency, and now the 148 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 1: Inflation Reduction Act that's actually going to make inflation worse. 149 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: All of the responses, all the things Democrats want to 150 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 1: do will make inflation worse. That's the part of it. 151 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 1: So they've made it worse. They can argue about how 152 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 1: much of it is their fault, but the reason why 153 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:36,439 Speaker 1: they need to lose power in elected office is because 154 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 1: all of their impulses in response to the numbers you're 155 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 1: putting out everything is I got an idea, Let's spend 156 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,679 Speaker 1: more money. They're out of their minds. This is the 157 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 1: only thing. Oh, in tax you more. That's their view 158 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 1: of how to deal with inflation. Spend even more money, 159 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 1: and then try to squeeze small businesses in particular for 160 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 1: more tax dollars. Yeah, and what this becomes, unfortunately a 161 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,440 Speaker 1: truism and if you're out there and you're saying, Okay, 162 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 1: well we're in a big hole. How do we get 163 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:06,320 Speaker 1: out of it? Well, you don't get out of it 164 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: by digging a deeper ditch. And again they're going to 165 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 1: brag today in one of the most ill timed, awkward, 166 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:18,559 Speaker 1: tone deaf political moves that I can remember in modern memory. Buck, 167 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 1: they're hosting a celebration at the White House today for 168 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 1: what they're calling the Inflation Reduction Act. And it's unfortunate. 169 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 1: Each of those seats in Georgia probably cost the American 170 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:39,199 Speaker 1: taxpayer a trillion dollars or more. Right, because if Republicans 171 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: had won either of those seats in the special election 172 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:46,960 Speaker 1: in Georgia in January of twenty one, leave aside the 173 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 1: election of twenty twenty and just focus on January of 174 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 1: twenty one, the runoffs in Georgia, I think there's a 175 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:58,319 Speaker 1: strong likelihood that we would have probably not passed the 176 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,560 Speaker 1: one point nine trillion, certainly would not have passed this 177 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 1: eight hundred billion Inflation Reduction Act, probably don't pass anywhere 178 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 1: near as much infrastructure. In other words, that was each 179 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: of those seats cost every American taxpayer around a trillion dollars. 180 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 1: And this is why I'm wild to think about when 181 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 1: we talk about the margins and the size of this 182 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: audience that we're speaking to everyday nationwide, this audience that 183 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:30,959 Speaker 1: rush built over decades. We think about the impact that 184 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 1: all of you listening to this can have, and this audience, 185 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 1: if you are listening to this, has the ability to 186 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: change the outcome in your state and for the country 187 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 1: when it comes to the Senate, when it comes to 188 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:48,079 Speaker 1: the House. Don't don't be lulled into some sense of oh, 189 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 1: but the numbers are so big and it's such a 190 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:54,319 Speaker 1: large country, and somebody else will show up and vote Georgia. 191 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 1: What was the final tally. I mean, we're talking about 192 00:11:56,760 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 1: ten thousand votes, give or take Arizona. You look at 193 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:04,199 Speaker 1: the final tally Pennsylvania. It was about forty thousand or 194 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 1: so in Pennsylvania. These are tiny margins. There are more 195 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 1: people than that listening in each of those states. Right now. 196 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 1: You have to remember, folks, that the media narrative right 197 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 1: now is going to be trying to convince you to 198 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 1: be demoralized. And also there's so much cynicism. I mean, 199 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:28,080 Speaker 1: Clay to call it the Inflation Reduction Act, is essentially 200 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: Democrats saying we think the media, which is ninety five 201 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 1: percent in the news media Democrat dominated, is so in 202 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 1: the tank for us. And we also the Democrats believe 203 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 1: that voters are so inept that they can just call 204 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 1: something the Inflation Reduction Act and people will vote for them, saying, well, 205 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna deal with inflation. It's really deeply cynical. 206 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 1: Imagine the audacity of having a celebration today on the 207 00:12:56,360 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 1: day where we're setting records in the cost increases in 208 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 1: many different products out there. I mean, you've never had 209 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 1: to pay more for groceries at home eating, going all 210 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 1: the way back to nineteen seventy nine, and many of 211 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:13,680 Speaker 1: our listeners, Buck, you weren't even born. I was a 212 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 1: baby the last time things cost this much. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 213 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:20,199 Speaker 1: Bucks a millennial. I was born in seventy nine. Clay 214 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:23,439 Speaker 1: was riding chariots to school. It was a long time ago. 215 00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 1: This is how crazy it is. I saw Jim Jordan, 216 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 1: our buddy, just tweeted, I couldn't even drive a car 217 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 1: the last time that grocery prices were this high, And 218 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 1: they're going to celebrate that today at the White House 219 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,319 Speaker 1: and it's not getting better anytime soon. That's the other 220 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 1: part of this. Everybody who knows anything about the economy 221 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 1: is telling everyone who will listen. Inflation is going to 222 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,719 Speaker 1: remain stubborn. Jobs are probably going to start getting hit 223 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 1: gunning start getting cut soon. And it's just a question 224 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:54,080 Speaker 1: I can they expand the correction as in the recession 225 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,680 Speaker 1: so much that people don't even really notice what's going 226 00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:01,679 Speaker 1: on politically, even though they're noticing it in their paycheck, 227 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:05,080 Speaker 1: in their workplace, in their four oh one case. We'll 228 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 1: come back into more on this in the second. Plus 229 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 1: we're talking about those midterms. I don't know if there's 230 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,599 Speaker 1: anything clay that somebody could do as a politician that 231 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 1: would make me seek their defeat more than being in 232 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 1: favor of vaccine passports. If I have the chance to 233 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 1: ouse somebody or to block somebody from office who was 234 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 1: a vaccine passport fan, I will lay down in traffic 235 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 1: for that one down in Florida. Somebody's making made some 236 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: noise about that. We'll talk about it in a second.

Prices are way down. 259 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 1: Interest rate, sir up, I know it's slowed a little bit, 260 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 1: but this seems still hot. Really, it's a high number. 261 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:57,560 Speaker 1: If you are in the White House this morning, if 262 00:15:57,560 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 1: you're in the Federal Reserve this morning, if you're an 263 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: American this morning, these are not good numbers at all. 264 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,240 Speaker 1: And they are looking at the stock market down over 265 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:06,800 Speaker 1: five hundred points on the down right now. And what's 266 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 1: so interesting is you just said it. You know, everybody 267 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 1: goes to the gas pump, you see the signs, and 268 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 1: those signs were for inflation. I mean, that was actually 269 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: a billboard for inflation for a very long time. But 270 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 1: those places are now down about twenty six percent. But 271 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: there's almost a silent inflation going on, or at least 272 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 1: one that's not as visible to folks. It's clear even 273 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:30,520 Speaker 1: to regime media, which Joe Scarborough for this White House 274 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 1: certainly qualifies as not good numbers today, folks. I mean, 275 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 1: the fact, as Clay pointed out, that they're holding a 276 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,960 Speaker 1: We're bringing down inflation with the Inflation Reduction Act party 277 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:47,280 Speaker 1: at three o'clock just seems again this Biden administration, because 278 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 1: they have this advantage of all the all the megawatts 279 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: brought together by the Democrat corporate media. Clay, there they 280 00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 1: seem to be the kid who doesn't do the homework, 281 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 1: ends in front of the class, gets everything the teacher 282 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:06,199 Speaker 1: asks wrong, and then wants a candy, then wants a 283 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 1: pad on the head. They plan this. I think when 284 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:14,919 Speaker 1: they planned it, they thought that the number would be 285 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:18,239 Speaker 1: lower than it is so that they could take a 286 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 1: victory lap. Instead, it's still at eight point three percent. 287 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:26,399 Speaker 1: We ran you through so many of the new highs 288 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 1: being set, and now they can't cancel it because they'll 289 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 1: look ridiculous. But this is just a sign of how 290 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 1: incompetent they are that they would be planning an inflation 291 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 1: reduction party with the rate of inflation in this country 292 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 1: right now at eight point three percent, and with the 293 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,919 Speaker 1: number unlikely to get much better in October. And remember 294 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 1: this is with them benefiting by gas prices coming down 295 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,399 Speaker 1: from five dollars a gallon to three seventy five or 296 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 1: whatever it is, which is a tangible way for many 297 00:17:57,320 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 1: people to pay attention to it, but just small part 298 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:04,879 Speaker 1: of the overall inflation number. This is a disastrous planning. 299 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:07,119 Speaker 1: A head is a good thing. Being prepared for the 300 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 1: best and worst outcomes is a smart thing. Doesn't mean 301 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,160 Speaker 1: you're a prepper though that's not a bad thing either, 302 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 1: just means you're prepared for the worst and have peace 303 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,679 Speaker 1: of mind that comes with it.

Doctor Jah in the White 326 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,399 Speaker 1: House said this is why God gave us two arms, 327 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 1: so you get a flu shot in one and a 328 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:42,479 Speaker 1: COVID shot in the other, which is a ridiculous statement 329 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:47,680 Speaker 1: that he actually made last week. Well, doctor Prasad here 330 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:54,640 Speaker 1: lays out some really intriguing thoughts and analysis on how 331 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:58,160 Speaker 1: the COVID shot that they're proposing to give us yearly 332 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:02,439 Speaker 1: is actually not similar to the flu shot very much 333 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 1: at all, and I'm reading I'm just kind of summarizing here. 334 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,400 Speaker 1: First of all, it is it has way more adverse 335 00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:13,199 Speaker 1: effects the COVID shot does than the flu. That is, 336 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 1: people take off from work, they feel far more ill 337 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,919 Speaker 1: after COVID shots than they do after the flu shots. 338 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 1: That's prong one argument that he makes. The second one is, 339 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 1: and this is pretty significant, I think buck the flu 340 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 1: vaccine is trying to predict what strains are going to 341 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 1: be present in the United States when the flu season arrives. 342 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:41,439 Speaker 1: What they are giving you now for COVID shot is 343 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:47,720 Speaker 1: actually a past strain that has already come through BA 344 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:51,919 Speaker 1: four NBA five, And he says, no one tries to 345 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 1: vaccinate people who already just had the exact same strain 346 00:20:56,320 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 1: of flu with the flu shot. What the CDC once 347 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 1: is for all of you to get a shot for 348 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 1: a strain of COVID that you likely already had. And 349 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:11,920 Speaker 1: he says the covid is now far less lethal than 350 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:17,959 Speaker 1: the flu, particularly for the young. So all three of 351 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:22,440 Speaker 1: those prongs is pretty are pretty significant here, buck, And 352 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 1: you're probably not gonna hear, I bet on almost any 353 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 1: media outlet with any kind of audience what we just 354 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:34,119 Speaker 1: shared with you from doctor Persad really kind of jumped 355 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 1: out and was a oh, yeah, this is quite a 356 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 1: lot different than the flu shot, which they're trying to 357 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 1: compare it to. Now, yeah, why do we think, or 358 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,919 Speaker 1: why do they think, because we don't think it that 359 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 1: they can anticipate what the next variant of COVID would 360 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:53,080 Speaker 1: be at all. Well, what we know is that it 361 00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 1: morphed to omicron and that that effectively negated the better 362 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:01,919 Speaker 1: to fit. Well, it's actually hard to even say that 363 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 1: because it doesn't last very long regardless, But they've been 364 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 1: playing catch up and making people get shots that aren't 365 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 1: even aren't even dialed into what the viruses that's out there, 366 00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 1: not specifically to that variant. And now they're saying, oh, well, 367 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,199 Speaker 1: for this fall, we're going to give you an omicron 368 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:25,560 Speaker 1: specific variant. Are we to think that all of a sudden, Remember, Clay, 369 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 1: they're all those news stories. Oh, another variant spotted here, 370 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 1: another variant, spot the variants all over the place. Why 371 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 1: would variants all of a sudden stop. You can just 372 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:38,119 Speaker 1: think through this and see the massive hole in the 373 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 1: logic that they're that they're using here, and then it's 374 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:43,159 Speaker 1: really not about logic anymore. This is now just the 375 00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:47,639 Speaker 1: machinery of mass vaccination that there's billions and billions of 376 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 1: dollars attached to that. There's an enormous Democrat incentive to 377 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:55,439 Speaker 1: at least continue this through the election, because to stop 378 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 1: it before the election, meaning to stop pushing shots on 379 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,639 Speaker 1: everybody as much as they can and would effectively be 380 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 1: a recognition that what they did last summer and through 381 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 1: last winter was monstrous, which it was, so now they 382 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 1: have to keep it going to pretend like, yeah, what 383 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: we did work. You know, now you're hearing more and 384 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 1: more people say, well, wearing masks is solidarity with at 385 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:22,400 Speaker 1: risk communities or something. Oh I'm sorry, So now wearing 386 00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:25,560 Speaker 1: a mask is like wearing a ribbon for a special cause, 387 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:27,919 Speaker 1: Like this is what we've turned into now? And the 388 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 1: answer is yes, they're just looking for some way to 389 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:35,960 Speaker 1: avoid people recognizing they were wrong about everything. What they're 390 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 1: trying to avoid is a reckoning, and Buck, what they're 391 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:43,360 Speaker 1: trying to claim is twofold. Well, yes, we ended up 392 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 1: doing some things that were wrong, but COVID was so 393 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 1: serious and so dangerous, how could we have known any better? 394 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,520 Speaker 1: And people like you and me like raise our hands 395 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 1: and we wave and we say, wait a minute, we 396 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 1: told you so many things that were wrong about this 397 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:05,160 Speaker 1: in the first place, right, So that is a significant 398 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:08,399 Speaker 1: aspect here. And then the other part that that I 399 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 1: think they're hoping, Buck, is that people just forget, that 400 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 1: they just move on, that people are tired of COVID, 401 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:20,359 Speaker 1: and that there's no actual reckoning for the choices that 402 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,919 Speaker 1: were made. Well, that it does not weigh well with 403 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 1: people like you and me, because we're saying, wait a minute, 404 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:28,879 Speaker 1: you told us that we weren't even allowed to share 405 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:32,119 Speaker 1: the opinions that we had about schools and lockdowns and 406 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 1: masks and COVID vaccine mandates. You actually tried to get 407 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:38,880 Speaker 1: us banned off social media. You said that we were 408 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 1: threats to the American Republic. And now you just want 409 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 1: to say, oh, are bad. You know, we messed up 410 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 1: and uh, and let's just pretend this never happened. Well, no, 411 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:52,400 Speaker 1: that's not that's not how this works. We also have 412 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:55,640 Speaker 1: to your point about the reckoning choices to make ahead 413 00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:58,640 Speaker 1: about a whole range of issues. But COVID, I think, 414 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 1: and the response, because the response COVID also shows you 415 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:06,359 Speaker 1: the character of an elected official, their judgment. It's a 416 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,959 Speaker 1: whole range of things that come into a yeah, they 417 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 1: were wrong, but also how wrong were they and in 418 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:16,199 Speaker 1: what ways were they just going along with it or 419 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 1: were they pushing to the next level of say vaccine passports. 420 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 1: A favorite governor of this program is clearly Governor Ronda 421 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 1: Santists of Florida, largely, not entirely, but largely just because 422 00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:33,199 Speaker 1: of what he did during COVID. Clay and I were 423 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 1: both just so thankful that this existed. You would go 424 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:38,680 Speaker 1: to Florida. I would go to Florida during the pandemic. Now, 425 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 1: you weren't fleeing East Germany. I was fleeing East Germany 426 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:45,000 Speaker 1: as a New Yorker going down to Florida during the pandemic. 427 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 1: I thank Governor to Siantists for making Florida West Germany. 428 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:53,119 Speaker 1: In this analogy, Charlie Chris thinks that he should be 429 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 1: the governor. Is he? You know, I feel like Charlie 430 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 1: just needs to complete the whole cycle. He's been a Democrat, 431 00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 1: an independent, or Republican. Next up is I think Marxists. 432 00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:04,600 Speaker 1: He's got to get the whole Maybe Green Party. Maybe 433 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 1: he should sign up for Green Party. But here's Charlie 434 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:11,680 Speaker 1: Chris just a year ago on the vaccine passport issue. 435 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 1: Lensky President Zelenski is amazing, amazing for now you mentioned it, 436 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:21,080 Speaker 1: and then the courage and the strength and the decency. 437 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:25,680 Speaker 1: Sorry he compared himself to Zelenski there, which is also 438 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:27,640 Speaker 1: we don't even need to go through all that here. 439 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:31,280 Speaker 1: He is playcliff three. You know. Governor Descantis has also 440 00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 1: banned businesses from acquiring passport of vaccine passports, and this 441 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,159 Speaker 1: obviously is going to have an impact on lots of 442 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:42,880 Speaker 1: businesses there in your state, including the cruise ship industry. 443 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 1: Where do you stand on vaccine passports and businesses? Oh, 444 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 1: we should have vaccine passports. I think that's important disqualifying. 445 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:58,920 Speaker 1: If Charlie christ were a six PhD holding former Navy 446 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 1: Seals super Ninja that was working on a cure for cancer, 447 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 1: I would say that should disqualify him alone. That one line. Floridians. 448 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 1: You guys all have a real opportunity here, and we 449 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:14,880 Speaker 1: got a monster audience in Florida, so I hope you're 450 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 1: all listening right now. You need to. I gotta be 451 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 1: careful what I say kick the crap, because I get 452 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 1: so fired up about this I might drop an expletive 453 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 1: every now and then. Buck, you need to send a 454 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:30,160 Speaker 1: message to the rest of the nation that your governor 455 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 1: and your state got COVID right. And the best way 456 00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:39,679 Speaker 1: you could do that is by beating the brains out 457 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 1: of Charlie crist over the fact that he wanted vaccine passports, 458 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 1: that he wants vaccine requirements. He would have had all 459 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:50,639 Speaker 1: your kids wearing masks. I want run de Santis to 460 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 1: win the state of Florida. He's gonna win. I want 461 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,600 Speaker 1: him to win by ten yep, I want him to 462 00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 1: win by ten. So I want CNN and MSNBC when 463 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:02,760 Speaker 1: they have their election night, I want them to have 464 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:06,440 Speaker 1: to walk out and say, well, it looks like Florida 465 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:10,200 Speaker 1: has given a solid vote of confidence to Ron de Santis, 466 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:13,880 Speaker 1: because I want him to win in such a trouncing 467 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 1: that it's impossible to ignore what dominance he's put forward. 468 00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:21,680 Speaker 1: In the Sunshine State, he won by thirty thousand votes 469 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 1: in eighteen buck like one less than one percent. I 470 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 1: want him to win by ten. I want all of 471 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,879 Speaker 1: you listening in Florida right now to send that message. Basically, 472 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 1: extend your middle fingers to all the mainstream media who 473 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:37,440 Speaker 1: picked on you, who attacked you, when you, guys got 474 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 1: it one hundred percent right with your governor and the 475 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 1: way you responded. And just so we can understand the Democrats, 476 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 1: the Democrat media, the kind of candidates that they will 477 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 1: put forward. He only one at that point against somebody 478 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 1: who soon thereafter the election was found with a was 479 00:28:56,360 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 1: it a mail escort or a drug overdose situation and 480 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 1: is now under Andrew Gillim is now under federal indictment. 481 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 1: If I am correct, for a fraud scheme? Is that also? 482 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 1: Is that also right? That's who the Democrats wanted to 483 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:17,640 Speaker 1: be running the state of Florida. Everybody married, that's all right, 484 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:21,080 Speaker 1: married man who was caught in a gay sex drug 485 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 1: sting uh and has been since charged with multiple there's 486 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 1: all over the floor or something or some kind of 487 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 1: a drug. Yes. Um, so that's you then wanted to 488 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 1: be the governor. I'd just like to remind everybody of that. 489 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 1: That's right. That's who that that's who they That's who 490 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 1: would have been the governor. In theory, if he didn't 491 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 1: get arrested in the gay you know, meth bust and 492 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:44,680 Speaker 1: also didn't have all the felonies happened, which maybe he 493 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 1: wouldn't have if he were the governor, they might have 494 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 1: protected him. And look, if Andrew Gillim was willing to 495 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 1: say that he's opposed to vaccine passports, probably take him over, 496 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 1: Charlie Christ. They'll just tell you that's a big one. 497 00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 1: You some stuff he wasn't opposed to getting injected with. 498 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 1: But right now, business owners, you've got to know how 499 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:08,000 Speaker 1: hard it is to keep your staff moving forward. Your 500 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:13,360 Speaker 1: job alone is monstrous this day. Managing workforces, keeping up 501 00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 1: with changing regulations, HR compliance, hiring talented people, keeping them 502 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:22,479 Speaker 1: handling a payroll. The list goes on. There's only so 503 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:26,440 Speaker 1: much one person can do in the course of a day. Fortunately, 504 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 1: there's insparity. They put thirty plus years of HR experience 505 00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:32,880 Speaker 1: to work to help you develop a people strategy that 506 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 1: supports your business strategy, focusing on the health of your organization. 507 00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 1: What if your HR strategy included access to better benefits 508 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 1: to help you keep the employees you have and attract 509 00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 1: new ones. What if it also offered training for your 510 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 1: employees to increase their skills so they become more productive. 511 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 1: There's always going to be challenges to face in business, 512 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 1: no matter where they come from. Insparity ready to help 513 00:30:56,920 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 1: you move past them by providing the HR solutions you need. 514 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 1: With insparity, nothing seems impossible. Inspirity HR that makes a difference. 515 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,160 Speaker 1: You shouldn't have to choose between a job that you 516 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:15,040 Speaker 1: need and a shot that you may not want, and 517 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 1: so we said that's an individual's decision and we're not 518 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 1: going to stand for that. So we said immediately the 519 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 1: government agencies, you can't do it. We even provided protection 520 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 1: for employees of private companies because we know how important 521 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 1: those jobs were to them as well. But just think 522 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 1: about you had police fire rescue EMT who had been 523 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:39,320 Speaker 1: on the front lines of all of this for from 524 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:42,760 Speaker 1: the very beginning, and everyone was saying how thankful they were. 525 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:45,280 Speaker 1: Then a year and a half later, you turned around 526 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:48,280 Speaker 1: and you want to fire them because they made a 527 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:50,720 Speaker 1: different choice than you're thinking that they should have made. 528 00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 1: There are people in this audience who lost their jobs 529 00:31:56,360 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 1: over the COVID vaccine mandate just in the last twelve months. 530 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:06,120 Speaker 1: People in this audience, including cops, fireman, nurses, people who 531 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 1: work in healthcare, members of the military, National Guard. And 532 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:15,600 Speaker 1: how is it that this is not a bigger issue 533 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 1: going into the midterms. Well, for one thing, I think 534 00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 1: the media realizes they don't want to talk about this, 535 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,720 Speaker 1: they don't want us to focus on it. But I 536 00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 1: believe very strongly Clay and I agree that there should 537 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 1: be a move among Republicans to demand that people who 538 00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:34,440 Speaker 1: were fired for this are given back their jobs, and 539 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 1: people who were released from government service should also get 540 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:46,040 Speaker 1: back pay, restoration of rank and seniority for the time lost. 541 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:49,520 Speaker 1: And Clay, you know, I remember in New York there 542 00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:53,120 Speaker 1: was a time when there was this banging of pots 543 00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 1: and pans that was all over the city. It was 544 00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:59,880 Speaker 1: pretty remarkable, and it was meant to show respect and 545 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:05,360 Speaker 1: support for first responders medical personnel, doctors, nurses, cops, etc. 546 00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:08,800 Speaker 1: Who were on the front lines of dealing with the pandemic. 547 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 1: Fast forward eighteen months, and a lot of those people, 548 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:15,960 Speaker 1: apparently here in New York and I guess elsewhere in 549 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:19,320 Speaker 1: the country too, didn't really care for the service of 550 00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:23,080 Speaker 1: those doctors and nurses and cops and firefighters and first 551 00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:26,880 Speaker 1: responders anymore because they were saying, get the shot or 552 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:30,440 Speaker 1: you lose your job. This was the most from a 553 00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:37,680 Speaker 1: civil liberty standpoint, from a basic decency and also rationality standpoint, like, 554 00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 1: what's true, did anyone get that shot and prevent the 555 00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:45,720 Speaker 1: spread to another person? No, there is no basis to 556 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:49,760 Speaker 1: believe that whatsoever. So why should we sit here and 557 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:53,720 Speaker 1: allow those who push for that to go without consequences. 558 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 1: I mean Governor Ronda Santis, he made the right move. 559 00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 1: Other Republicans, I'm just gonna say it, they said, oh, 560 00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 1: let the free market decide they were wrong. If in 561 00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 1: their states then people lost their jobs. They were wrong. 562 00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:08,399 Speaker 1: So DeSantis actually said, you can't do it. I don't 563 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:11,040 Speaker 1: think we've seen the worst of this yet, Buck, and 564 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:15,279 Speaker 1: that's what the data is now reflecting. The people who 565 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:21,439 Speaker 1: got the shots are not being are not healthier. Right 566 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 1: The overall rates of death, you know, on a large scale, 567 00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:30,920 Speaker 1: have not decline. We're still losing an elevated rate of 568 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:34,480 Speaker 1: people to deaths, and it's not being attributed to COVID anymore. 569 00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:38,319 Speaker 1: We talked yesterday about the fact that Alex Berenson has 570 00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 1: been sharing data that suggest that there may be reproductive 571 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:46,000 Speaker 1: impacts in terms of the men and women who got 572 00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 1: these shots and their ability to get pregnant or father children. 573 00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:57,440 Speaker 1: The overall birth rate is declining substantially in places that 574 00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:03,319 Speaker 1: received the most COVID shot. I'm concerned that, as bad 575 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:05,360 Speaker 1: as it is right now, Buck, with all the people 576 00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:08,359 Speaker 1: who lost their jobs, with all the requirements that we're 577 00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:12,000 Speaker 1: out there for the COVID shot, my concern is that 578 00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:17,560 Speaker 1: there is going to be actual negative, long lasting health 579 00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:22,279 Speaker 1: consequences from the COVID shot. People are talking all the 580 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:26,520 Speaker 1: time still about long COVID What about the long range 581 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:30,919 Speaker 1: risk of these COVID shots that were untested. How about 582 00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:34,200 Speaker 1: the fact that we're rolling out an emergency booster right now, buck, 583 00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:37,960 Speaker 1: based on a test on eight mice, Like, what in 584 00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 1: the world are we doing? We gave over a billion 585 00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:46,600 Speaker 1: people COVID shots that had barely been tested, that have 586 00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:50,440 Speaker 1: had minimal, if at all, efficacy, and we don't know 587 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:53,719 Speaker 1: what the long range impact of those shots is going 588 00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:58,239 Speaker 1: to be. I'm significantly worried not only about what we did, 589 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 1: but about what might still be to come associated with 590 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:05,480 Speaker 1: these shots. You'd have to think that increased or multiple 591 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 1: doses would also come with a heightened risk of some 592 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,440 Speaker 1: form of side effect. You never have any discussion about that, 593 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:15,479 Speaker 1: which everybody who was just being honest all along said, 594 00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 1: you can't watch a pharma commercial for eczema without a 595 00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:24,359 Speaker 1: list of fifty side effects. You know things, right, kid? Yea, 596 00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:28,720 Speaker 1: But this shot with the brand new technology to stop 597 00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 1: the scariest virus we've seen in a you know, aerosolized 598 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:35,120 Speaker 1: virus we've seen in a hundred years. Yeah, no, just 599 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,160 Speaker 1: it's fine. There's no downside at all. I don't know. 600 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:38,680 Speaker 1: Play sounds kind of fishy to me.
