We'll get into that. Plus 5 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:28,320 Speaker 1: we know that Rue Giuliani gave quite an interview last night. 6 00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 1: What are the Democrats trying to make of it? And 7 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 1: where does the defense of this administration go from here? 8 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:37,880 Speaker 1: Plus a series of deadly plane crashes that have killed 9 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 1: members of our military. What is happening? How can we 10 00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:44,959 Speaker 1: stop it? That and more coming up. This is the 11 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,159 Speaker 1: buck Sexton Show, where the mission or mission is to 12 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 1: decode what really matters with actionable intelligence. Mag No mistake, American, 13 00:00:55,760 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 1: You're great, American Again the Buck Sexton Show begins.

But you see, the 16 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 1: Freedom Hunt is now an island of sanity and and 17 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 1: truth in the midst of the swamp. Right, So this 18 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:23,400 Speaker 1: is with all the things going on here, this is 19 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 1: Freedom's safe haven in the midst of the swamp. The 20 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: Freedom Hunt is alive and well down here, my friends. 21 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: I've got a lot to talk to you about today, 22 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:41,399 Speaker 1: as I always do, but I was just flabbergasted kind 23 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: of a fun word to say by the reactions to 24 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 1: the Rudy Giuliani interview last night on on Shawn's Show, 25 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 1: The way that the media now seems to think that 26 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 1: they're just counting down the hours until Trump gets in diet. 27 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 1: It's it's just not It's not going to happen. Unless 28 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 1: Trump gets really bad legal advice and they can jam 29 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 1: him up with a process crime of some kind. It's 30 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 1: not gonna happen. But there is a mass delusion that 31 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 1: has taken hold in Democrat precincts across the country, and 32 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 1: certainly in the newsrooms of most of the mainstream media outlets. 33 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,239 Speaker 1: But before we get to that Juliana Juliani interview, because 34 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 1: I know it was last night, a lot have you 35 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: heard about it. I have a different take on much 36 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 1: of it. Part of it is that, like I'm a 37 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 1: board and raised New Yorker, Giuliani was there on nine 38 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:42,279 Speaker 1: eleven and did things that he will be forever remembered 39 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:46,959 Speaker 1: and honored for. I don't know if he's the best 40 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 1: guy to be running Trump's legal team right now, but 41 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: I also don't know who else would step forward and 42 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 1: do it. One of the important lessons that anyone watching 43 00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:01,240 Speaker 1: all of this, this circuit surround Trump would have to 44 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 1: take from it is that they want to take down 45 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 1: even those who are just trying to make sure that 46 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: the President of the United States has his rights respected 47 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 1: and and in defending his constitutional prerogatives. They'll take down 48 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 1: that person. You don't have to be a part of 49 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 1: the Trump campaign for them to want to come after 50 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 1: you. You You don't have to be one of his political appointees. 51 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,799 Speaker 1: If you're just a lawyer willing to stand up and say, 52 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: hold on a second, what kind of completely crazy stazzi 53 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 1: like police state tactics are the Democrats engaged in here. 54 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: I saw the report today about how you know, maybe 55 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 1: maybe Cohen's phone call uh to the White House was 56 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 1: picked up under surveillance. This is serious stuff. An active 57 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 1: wire tap on it on the president's lawyer, my friends, 58 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 1: and this are oh, there are crimes, crimes. Oh, I'm 59 00:03:56,720 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: sorry they're now authorizing wired because they think maybe there 60 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: was a campaign finance violation. You know, your mind, because 61 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: you're you and I are ethical people, your mind wants 62 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 1: to go to a place of they can't they can't 63 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: be serious. Oh no, no, they're entirely serious because they 64 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 1: don't care that it is unfair. They don't care that 65 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:25,920 Speaker 1: it's hurting the entire country. And then it's completely dishonest 66 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 1: and disproportionate to what kinds of powers and authorities should 67 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: be used against the sitting president for given what we're 68 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 1: talking about here campaign finance? Are you kidding me? Hillary 69 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 1: Clinton was running a freaking global scam under the auspices 70 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 1: of a charity. Oh, we couldn't, couldn't really dig into 71 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: that one. Do do any do any of the of 72 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:54,280 Speaker 1: the intrepid journalists over at CNN or MSNBC want to 73 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:55,919 Speaker 1: have a sit down and explain to me why the 74 00:04:55,920 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 1: Clinton Foundations money has been drying up like a ittie 75 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: pool in the middle of the Sahara. Anyone want to 76 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:07,840 Speaker 1: explain that to me? Now? What a shock? But oh yeah, 77 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: campaign finance, Now it's a good thing we've got, you 78 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 1: know Elliott ness of today on the case with well 79 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: it was Comey and now it's Mueller. Just crazy, just crazy. Um. 80 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,719 Speaker 1: But what really caught my attention today was something that 81 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 1: I know a bit about because it's really a it's 82 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 1: borrowed from the world of intelligence and espionage. And that 83 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 1: is what we found out about what I would call 84 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 1: Kobe's Jim Comey's agent of influence. Daniel Rickman was hired 85 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 1: as a special government employee, and according to Fox here Um, 86 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:03,919 Speaker 1: between of July and February, Rickman gave multiple interviews defending 87 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 1: Comy's handling of the Clinton email case, including the controversial 88 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 1: decision to reopen the probe shortly before the presidential election. 89 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 1: He was typically identified as a law professor and sometimes 90 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 1: as a policy advisor to Coomy. Let me, let me 91 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,159 Speaker 1: just get into this a little bit more. And by 92 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: the way, an agent of influence, you can pretty much 93 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 1: tell what it is based on the based on the 94 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 1: name itself. But this is somebody whose role is to 95 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:39,280 Speaker 1: mold perception, to push certain agendas. An agent of influences 96 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:43,720 Speaker 1: someone who's really working on your behalf as a propagandist. Right. 97 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 1: It's somebody who is in a position that allows them 98 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: to push on levers to bring about a certain outcome. 99 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:56,479 Speaker 1: Uh here, I mean. The Wikipedia definition is one who's 100 00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:01,160 Speaker 1: uses his his or her stature to influence public opinion 101 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: or decision making to produce results beneficial to the country, 102 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: whose intelligence service operates the agent, right. So you know, 103 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: if if you let's say, this is the perfect example 104 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 1: the Soviets, if the Soviets as they did. By the way, 105 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 1: they don't teach the stuff in school, but I read 106 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 1: a lot of old books that are out of print, 107 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 1: and you can see a lot of this stuff. The 108 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 1: Soviets were running money to publications all over the world. 109 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: The Soviets were paying journalists to push communist propaganda and 110 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 1: by the way, in some cases at very high levels. 111 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: So someone who runs a newspaper, let's say in the 112 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 1: US or anywhere else, who's receiving money from the Soviets 113 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 1: and who's pushing a pro Soviet line, that's an agent 114 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: of influence. Comey was using this guy, Daniel Rickman, as 115 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 1: his own personal agent of influence under the auspices of 116 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 1: being a special government employee for the FBI. So comy, 117 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: it's to have kind of in the side pocket or 118 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 1: in the back pocket side pockets and pool reference. My bad. Uh. 119 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: He gets to have this individual who has media relationships 120 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 1: and can go out there and spread the commist line 121 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: whenever he wants. You know, the FBI is not supposed 122 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: to do that. It's not how it's supposed to work. 123 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: FBI has a Office of Public Affairs. They have people 124 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 1: or whatever they call it. They have people who openly 125 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: interact with the media, but it's usually very, you know, 126 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,079 Speaker 1: very restrictive as to what they can and cannot talk about. 127 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:39,679 Speaker 1: And it's kind of all in the straight and narrow. 128 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 1: You don't get to run your own little little side 129 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 1: guy to the media and go do your bidding as 130 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 1: FBI director. You've gotta be kidding me. How could anybody 131 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 1: do this and think that this is ethical or okay? 132 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: Being paid by the taxpayer, I would note, So we're 133 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 1: seeing more as time goes on, more of what we 134 00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: know happened. But now we're getting greater, greater, uh greater 135 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,560 Speaker 1: amount of proof, and that is that some of these 136 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 1: very senior deep state bureaucrats were clearly abusing their power 137 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 1: and authority in in i'll be honest, somewhat creative ways 138 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 1: in order to push a certain message to the media 139 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 1: and to the general public with it. They weren't just 140 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 1: running operations trying to get different journalists to think certain 141 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: things and to run with certain stories, although that was 142 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 1: certainly that was definitely a part of it. You saw 143 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 1: that with McCabe. For example, McCabe, who's leaking stuff. Okay, 144 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,400 Speaker 1: the FBI, the FBI director. You start to run down 145 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 1: a list of this stuff and it stinks to high heaven. 146 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 1: The FBI acting director, we'll leak something and then have 147 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 1: the the hoot spa to call the New York field 148 00:09:57,760 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 1: office of the FBI and yell at them for the 149 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 1: leak that he did. Comey's running this agent of influence 150 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: guy Daniel Rickman, who's talking to the media and defending 151 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 1: Comy's handling of the FBI while he's an FBI employee. 152 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 1: Can't do that. Comey decides to take notes pass them 153 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 1: to Rickman. Rickman's the guy who then takes them to 154 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 1: New York Times. So Rickman was the cutout that we've 155 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 1: been talking about. But now I say he's the agent 156 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: of influence, but he was serving. He was serving an 157 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:33,680 Speaker 1: organization of one really, which was James Comey. This is 158 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:37,680 Speaker 1: the guy that we I would note, or are suffering 159 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,680 Speaker 1: as a nation through this nightmare of the Mueller investigation 160 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,719 Speaker 1: because Comey got fired because of this dirt ball. You 161 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 1: gotta be kidding me here. We are media thinks this 162 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 1: is great. They think they're hot on the trail. They 163 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 1: think that it's just a matter of just a matter 164 00:10:54,360 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 1: of of weeks, maybe months, but weeks before they finally 165 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 1: kick at the load bearing walls of this administration and 166 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 1: with it, the country and bring it all tumbling down. 167 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 1: That's what they think is gonna happen. In fact, they've 168 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 1: bet that it's going to happen. They can't go back 169 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 1: in their minds. They've put all their chips on the table, 170 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 1: and the Trump is gonna collapse, and they're doing everything 171 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 1: they can to make it collapse. This is straight up politically. 172 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 1: This is a I was saying, it's a street fight. 173 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 1: It's true, a bar fight. True, it's a political war 174 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 1: that we are in the midst of right now. The 175 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: establishment has not decided to engage in any introspection. They're 176 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:48,440 Speaker 1: not trying to fix what they did wrong. They're not like, well, 177 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 1: Hillary was just a crap, lousy candidate. No. No, they 178 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 1: want payback. They want an end of this. They want 179 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 1: their power back. It's true of the mainstream media networks. 180 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 1: It's true the Democrat Party, It's through of the progressive 181 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 1: elitist establishment across the board. They view Trump as a 182 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 1: threat to their sense of self, to their power, to 183 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 1: their money, all of it, and they're all in against him. 184 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,680 Speaker 1: And this is why, as much as I would like 185 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:19,679 Speaker 1: to sit here and you know, have kind of a 186 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: Sunday school session and talk about how well, you know, 187 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: did Trump do some naughty things, I do not care 188 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,959 Speaker 1: because I understand the stakes. That's not to say that 189 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 1: I'll defend everything Trump does. I'm actually gonna we're gonna 190 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 1: talk later on about immigration because this is the story 191 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 1: that I can't know. It's not getting nearly enough attention, 192 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 1: maybe because the administrations undersiege right now, but it's not 193 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,559 Speaker 1: getting nearly enough attention because we're not getting what was 194 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 1: promised on that. But in the grand scheme of things, 195 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 1: I'm still in the bunker. I'm in the trench next 196 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: to Trump and all of his people because I know 197 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,320 Speaker 1: what the other side is trying to do. I know 198 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 1: how they're going about it, and I know what they 199 00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,199 Speaker 1: want if they win, and what it means for you 200 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 1: and for me and of the country that you've got 201 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:09,200 Speaker 1: Comey going around as really the de facto general of 202 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:16,319 Speaker 1: the hashtag resistance given all of the completely unethical, slimy, 203 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 1: self serving, self dealing stuff, that he did as FBI director. 204 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 1: I mean, it's a big job with a lot of 205 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:30,440 Speaker 1: authority and power. That all that happened and here we 206 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 1: are and we can't seem to get out of this. 207 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: Is is a kind of awaking nightmare at this point. 208 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:41,080 Speaker 1: I mean, it really is threatening so much of what 209 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 1: I think could be accomplished by this administration when should 210 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 1: be good for so much of the American people. But 211 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 1: we are facing an implacable enemy. The enemy is the 212 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 1: progressive left with all of its redistribution and state ism 213 00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 1: and authoritarianism and as we see now, petty police state 214 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:04,679 Speaker 1: stuff too. So I'll get into some of the more 215 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 1: some of the specifics on this when we come back. 216 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 1: And and I the fact that Comey's lawyer is Patrick 217 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:18,319 Speaker 1: Fitzgerald is just perfect, really the most the most relentless, unethical, 218 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 1: slimy headhunter prosecutor of the last twenty years, of all 219 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 1: the lawyers in the country. That's who Comey wants to 220 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: have his back. I wonder why some of us, by 221 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: the way, have known who Fitzgerald was since even before 222 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 1: Scooter Libby. Go back and read about the Conrad Black case. 223 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 1: Eight four four to five lines are open Team love 224 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 1: to hear from you.

I want to know what 229 00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 1: you think, though, team, because we need to make sure 230 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 1: that we are following this thing closely, because the stakes 231 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 1: are being raised right now. They are They're all in 232 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 1: on Trump's destruction. We'll be right back. I think they 233 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: want to destroy the president. They want to destroy his family, 234 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 1: they want to destroy his businesses, they want to destroy 235 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 1: his friends, so that no billionaire and let's say fifteen 236 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 1: years wakes up and tells his wife, you know what, 237 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 1: the country's broken and only I can fix it. His 238 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 1: wife will say, are you crazy? Did you see what 239 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: happened to Donald Trump and everybody around him? Marcat Puto 240 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 1: is one I'm sorry, Mike, and Puto is one hundred 241 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 1: percent correct. That is exactly what's going on. You have 242 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 1: to remember, it's it's a trauma. The left has been 243 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:54,480 Speaker 1: triggered here. It's not enough for them to even just 244 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 1: get Trump removed from office, maybe even prosecuted after moved 245 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 1: from office. That's not enough. They have to stop another 246 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 1: Trump like figure from ever emerging in their lifetimes because 247 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 1: they have really been thrown for a loop here. They've 248 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 1: been traumatized, they've been triggered by Trump, and they want 249 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 1: to use this, uh, this upstart. You know, they want 250 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 1: to change the narrative so that he's a cautionary tale 251 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 1: for anyone else who would ever think of challenging this establishment. 252 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 1: You want to talk about a deep state, A deep 253 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 1: state's gonna be like twenty tho leagues deep if they 254 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:43,520 Speaker 1: actually get their way here. Think about the think about 255 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: what the president is. You know, we don't forget things, right, 256 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 1: just like we didn't forget that they the media lied 257 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 1: and covered up for Bill Clinton, and he lied under oath, 258 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 1: and the law wasn't really the law then, and there's 259 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 1: all these other examples that we can talk about since 260 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 1: then too. If Bill Clinton is in my lifetime, certainly 261 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 1: one that we will never forget, well, we're also not 262 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 1: gonna forget. No one's gonna forget any time soon that 263 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 1: the FBI and some other as yet identified members of 264 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 1: the senior hours of the intelligence community, and we've identified 265 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:17,199 Speaker 1: some of them right because they're coming forward talking, but 266 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 1: they were engaged in a campaign to stop and then 267 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,919 Speaker 1: undo the Trump presidency. And if they're sick, and if 268 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 1: they're successful after the fact, think about the message that 269 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: that sends. People will talk about the institutions and our 270 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 1: Trump is so dangerous to institutions. What does it say 271 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 1: when our institutions want to subvert the will of the 272 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 1: American people throw the election upside down all of a sudden, 273 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:47,880 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. You don't get to really choose. That's 274 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:51,159 Speaker 1: a scary country, folks. And at that point do I 275 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:55,639 Speaker 1: even tell people, Yeah, go out and vote. Sure, American democracy. 276 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:57,880 Speaker 1: I know we're a public. Don't send me the emails. 277 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: American democracy is the best us. Well maybe it was, 278 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 1: but you want to talk about what we are losing now, 279 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:11,680 Speaker 1: all the hysteria over Russia's interference in our election. Meanwhile, 280 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 1: people that are supposed to be public servants of our 281 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 1: government and the media that are supposed to be serving 282 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 1: the purpose of informing the public there overturning an election. 283 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:27,119 Speaker 1: That is what we are seeing happening here. This is 284 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:30,160 Speaker 1: why they have all these pathetic justifications for all. Look, 285 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,880 Speaker 1: it might be campaign finance, or it might be Russia collusion, 286 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:37,919 Speaker 1: or it might be doesn't mean the crime that Trump, theoretically, 287 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:41,159 Speaker 1: with no evidence, may have committed to justify all these 288 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 1: changes every week. I mean, it's like Trump doesn't even 289 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 1: have time to eat at cheeseburger because I guess he's 290 00:18:46,480 --> 00:19:00,240 Speaker 1: just committing crimes all the time. They're crazy. He's holding 291 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 1: the line for America, Buck Sexton his back. I'm never 292 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,560 Speaker 1: gonna work on a Republican campaign again unless somebody legally 293 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 1: indemnifies me clearly these lawsuits after the fact, or the 294 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 1: new democratic strategy, when you lose, you still win. I 295 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:16,919 Speaker 1: don't think anybody should work on a Republican campaign again 296 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 1: unless they're legally indemnified. I think if you do, you're crazy. 297 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:25,439 Speaker 1: Michael Capputo really hitting some very important notes here on 298 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:28,880 Speaker 1: TV in the last twenty four hours or so.

It really is people are 334 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 1: being treated terribly, very shabbily by those who are supposed 335 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 1: to be the the if not the guaranteurs, at least 336 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:41,159 Speaker 1: supporting our civil liberties and individual rights, you know, the 337 00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 1: the fourth of state. It's really a fifth column, and 338 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:48,679 Speaker 1: it's it's a disgrace. And Computa is totally right. By 339 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:50,719 Speaker 1: the way, this is part of a of a larger 340 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 1: theme that you see where somehow we're not actually having 341 00:21:56,760 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 1: political debates anymore. It's just how do I get how 342 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,240 Speaker 1: do I ruin your reputation? If if you're a Democrat, 343 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:06,399 Speaker 1: will you wake up saying yourself, your Democrat, who's playing 344 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 1: this game of power politics? You're not making the case 345 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,919 Speaker 1: for how terrible Trump is doing in the economy. Economy 346 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 1: is good. Good luck with that, right. Just imagine if 347 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 1: we had had somebody with Trump's approach to say capitalism 348 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 1: and free enterprise instead of Obama after the financial crisis, 349 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 1: which was not of the Republican parties, making, by the way, 350 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 1: one of the great myths that the media perpetrated. Yeah, 351 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:36,640 Speaker 1: there was a symbiotic relationship. Just a little little trip 352 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 1: down memory lane if you don't mind with me for 353 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 1: a second. Here there was a symbiotic relationship between government 354 00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 1: policy and Wall Street shark like behavior with the whole 355 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 1: mortgage meltdown without the loosening of lending standards based on 356 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,639 Speaker 1: who wants to guess? Why did we have decades of 357 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,439 Speaker 1: looser and looser lending standards in this country? Sure you 358 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,199 Speaker 1: know the ownership society in the else how did it start? 359 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,880 Speaker 1: Community Reinvestment Act stretches back to the late sixties early seventies. 360 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: I believe the cr A. What was the big problem 361 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 1: with the c r A or what was the c 362 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:13,639 Speaker 1: r A trying to address? Oh, the disparities and lending 363 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:18,200 Speaker 1: among um different ethnic groups in this country. Who was 364 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 1: getting loans and who wasn't became a social justice issue, 365 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,199 Speaker 1: became a racial justice issue. Gotta get rid of the 366 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 1: you know, using of Phyco scores and all the rest 367 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 1: of it. Gotta gotta change the system. It's not the 368 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,439 Speaker 1: system wasn't fair. The system based on numbers and and 369 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 1: background of payment and all that wasn't fair. And then 370 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 1: they kept going and going, and then Wall Street saw 371 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 1: an opportunity. And look, people work on Wall Street to 372 00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: make money, right, They're not actually trying to here cancer 373 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:49,479 Speaker 1: or save the world. And that's how we got that monster, 374 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:54,639 Speaker 1: uh that almost took down the whole economy, global economy, 375 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,239 Speaker 1: but it was there was a huge social justice and 376 00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,159 Speaker 1: government intervention component to the meltdown. Without it, it it was 377 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 1: not possible. And this is a story that is not told. 378 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 1: There's no mention of this in the movie The Big Short. 379 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:08,639 Speaker 1: There's no mention of this, and most of the major 380 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 1: you know, major pop culture, uh, nonfiction treatments of this 381 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:20,640 Speaker 1: that under Clinton, they were suing banks that were like, well, 382 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:22,119 Speaker 1: we're not gonna make this long because we think it's 383 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 1: a bad loan. Sorry, you gotta make more loans. It's 384 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:27,160 Speaker 1: to social justice issue. Gotta make more loans. And people 385 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:30,920 Speaker 1: you don't think, you don't think I gotta pay them back? Okay, well, 386 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,840 Speaker 1: how could that go bad? And then we found out. 387 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 1: But imagine if we had Trump instead of Obama at 388 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:43,680 Speaker 1: that point in time. I think we would have recovered 389 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,400 Speaker 1: much more rapidly. We wouldn't have spent a trillion dollars 390 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 1: on Democrat giveaways. There's all kinds of stuff. We could 391 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:49,680 Speaker 1: look back on it and say, wow, that would have 392 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 1: been great. Um. But see, they don't. They don't attack 393 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:57,360 Speaker 1: Trump on the economy because as much as they want 394 00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:00,240 Speaker 1: to get us all scared about China and trade wars 395 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:03,560 Speaker 1: and everything, it's just not happened. And we can see 396 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 1: we are aware of the benefits, the economic benefits of 397 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 1: having a Trump presidency so far, but we don't. It's 398 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:12,440 Speaker 1: not even part of the discussion. Really, I don't even 399 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 1: hear it. If somebody asked me right now, and then 400 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,119 Speaker 1: this look, this goes into all the different strategies the 401 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:22,680 Speaker 1: Democrats using. And ask yourself this question too, because I'm 402 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:26,160 Speaker 1: gonna pose it from the I'll speak from the eye 403 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 1: perspective here. That's what you're supposed to do in business meetings, right, 404 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 1: If you're gonna try to be helpful. I'm talking from 405 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 1: the eye perspective that wants to say something like, you 406 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,679 Speaker 1: are not good at this. You say I would like 407 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 1: to help you with this. Um if someone said, buck, 408 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:43,920 Speaker 1: I'll give you, I'll give you a lot of money 409 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 1: if you can really you know, I'll give you a 410 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 1: lot of money. Is a hundred dollars, I'll give you 411 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:53,280 Speaker 1: a hundred dollars if you can articulate what the Democrat 412 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 1: message for the upcoming mid terms is like, I'll give 413 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:02,160 Speaker 1: you a bag of cash, I would say, in all honesty, 414 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:08,240 Speaker 1: I don't know other than impeach Trump, throw all of 415 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:10,440 Speaker 1: his family members in prison, because that's really what they 416 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:14,439 Speaker 1: want to do, including and Trump of course, right, impeach Trump, 417 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:16,440 Speaker 1: throw the whole White House in prison. Now that's not 418 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,199 Speaker 1: it's never gonna happen. But that's what they're That's how 419 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:22,399 Speaker 1: they're getting their base energize. That's what they're pushing. I 420 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 1: don't hear any other message. What's the other message? What 421 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:31,680 Speaker 1: else do they want? What are they for or against? Even? Oh, 422 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,919 Speaker 1: illegal immigration, yeah sure, okay, we know that, but they 423 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 1: won't run on that. Though. The Democrat Party is for 424 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:40,119 Speaker 1: illegal immigration. But they won't tell you that. They'll just 425 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:45,359 Speaker 1: do it because it's all about votes, power politics. I 426 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:49,640 Speaker 1: love who was it, uh producer Mike if if you, um, 427 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 1: I forget what wasn't it uh? Last week or so 428 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:56,200 Speaker 1: somebody was all upset like, oh my gosh, Trump is 429 00:26:56,240 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 1: saying illegal immigration is all about votes. Yeah, my man, 430 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,680 Speaker 1: that that is what That is why the Democrat Party 431 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:08,119 Speaker 1: cares so much about legal immigration. It is all about votes. This, 432 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 1: I mean, we're gonna sit around here to tell where 433 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 1: a bunch of clowns don't know anything. This is the 434 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 1: fight though, this is where it is now. It's for 435 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 1: someone who makes makes his living now such as it 436 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 1: is um talking, thinking, writing, speaking about these issues, which 437 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:28,199 Speaker 1: I think I find really important. I mean I I 438 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:31,359 Speaker 1: do ultimately like to think that other than just trying 439 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 1: to have fun, entertain you, entertain myself as we entertain 440 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 1: each other, really that we're promoting ideas that are good 441 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:43,640 Speaker 1: for good for America, good for humanity. Right, We're promoting 442 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:46,160 Speaker 1: what is true, what is good, what is right. That's 443 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 1: actually if I could come up with you know, it's 444 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 1: not a tagline. It's gonna sell a lot of soda, 445 00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 1: But that's what I try to do here in the 446 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 1: Freedom Hunt Uh also known as the Buck Section Show. 447 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:00,600 Speaker 1: But I wish we could spend more time time on 448 00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:04,480 Speaker 1: the substance of policy. The problem is right now the 449 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:09,440 Speaker 1: administration is so encumbered by all these different opposition efforts 450 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 1: that there's not even much of a policy. There's not 451 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 1: even much of a counter agenda to discuss. The agenda 452 00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:20,639 Speaker 1: is get Trump, take him down, destroy him and this 453 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:24,520 Speaker 1: White House, bring in a you know, a huge Democrat 454 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,640 Speaker 1: counter revolution of sorts. That's it. There's there's no other 455 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 1: strategy to speak of that that I've heard anything about, 456 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 1: and I'm wondering if at some point they plan to 457 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 1: change that. In the meantime, so Caputo is saying, I 458 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 1: think it's absolutely right. They're trying to They're trying to 459 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 1: use Trump as an example for anyone else and make 460 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 1: him so toxic that even people who believe thoroughly in 461 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 1: Trump is m are concerned for their own well being. Right. 462 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 1: You don't want to be you want to be the 463 00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 1: guy who goes and then the media look at look 464 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 1: what they did. You want to get Ronnie Jackson? Do 465 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 1: you want to get Ronnie Jackson? Because we saw what 466 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 1: that was guys. Uh, you know what a rear admiral 467 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 1: or vice admiral p PhD, m D served honorably for 468 00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 1: years and years numerous presidents. They just just smeared him, 469 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:25,520 Speaker 1: just slimed him. Do you think any of the journalists 470 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 1: that ran their stories, by the way, lose a night's sleep? 471 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 1: And no, they think that points on the board another 472 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:35,080 Speaker 1: another person tied to Trump that Trump likes gone. Everyone 473 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 1: now becomes a target. Any journalist. I see this from 474 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 1: my own vantage point, anyone that speaks out forcefully against Trump. 475 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:45,960 Speaker 1: You don't you don't need me to name the names. 476 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 1: You know who they are. They're doing everything they can. Oh, 477 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:54,160 Speaker 1: I've heard a rumor that person has investments. Good heavens, 478 00:29:55,200 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 1: he's a capitalist. Somebody hold the own. Stop the presses. 479 00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 1: They're just they'll but they'll anything that they can try 480 00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 1: to do, any narrative they can spend to take people down. 481 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 1: And this is true even I forget about just what 482 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 1: the media. It's it's true within the government itself. And 483 00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:17,239 Speaker 1: I don't even mean just the Mueller probe and all that. 484 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 1: Look what the Senates doing, The Senate Democrats just sitting 485 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:25,440 Speaker 1: on nominees for senior posts. In the government that they's 486 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 1: usually they can't get enough government employees going now, oh no, 487 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:34,960 Speaker 1: we can't. I can't allow that delay, delay, delay. That's there. 488 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:39,560 Speaker 1: That's their whole program here, you know, and and it's 489 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:46,480 Speaker 1: all done in bad faith. Fifteen months into his presidency, 490 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 1: this is in the daily signal fifteen months into his 491 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 1: presidency of Trump's nominees await any Senate action.

W. Bush 496 00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 1: in n talking about thirty years. Here, folks, the the 497 00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:26,200 Speaker 1: the slowest Senate confirmation rate for senior government appointees in 498 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 1: thirty years. That's not an accident. We know this, right, 499 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 1: we know. You know at some point you could take this. 500 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:37,680 Speaker 1: It's a very a Lynsky eight approach to the government. 501 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:42,239 Speaker 1: You know, if it's not enough for you to this 502 00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:44,680 Speaker 1: is a classic Lynskey thing. Okay, Well, if you if 503 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 1: you don't have enough people to do a sit in 504 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:49,200 Speaker 1: at a restaurant or or you know, at some public facility, 505 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 1: just sit in their bathrooms, all of them. Don't let 506 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 1: anyone else to use them. That'll get everyone's attention, right 507 00:31:56,240 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 1: come up the works. Engage in whatever bad faith sabotage 508 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:05,720 Speaker 1: you can right now. The Democrats Humor, Pelosi, Muller, all 509 00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:09,400 Speaker 1: of it. They're doing a bad faith sabotage of the 510 00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 1: White House and of the presidency because they can't win 511 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:18,200 Speaker 1: on the merits. They tried, right with Hillary. They tried, 512 00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:21,880 Speaker 1: but they couldn't. Even the security clearance process, we're being 513 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:25,320 Speaker 1: told now security clearance process, according to a piece in 514 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 1: the Washington Times, is being used as a as a 515 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:31,960 Speaker 1: tool against Trump. Keep in mind that a lot there's 516 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 1: a lot of discretion, a lot of I know people 517 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:36,880 Speaker 1: who have done investigations for the government, a lot of 518 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 1: well does this person get a clearance? Is that person 519 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:42,800 Speaker 1: get a clearance? Judgment call somehow, All the judgment calls 520 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 1: in the federal government from the FBI, director of the 521 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:48,400 Speaker 1: Attorney General on down always seemed to go against Trump. 522 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 1: It's not an accident and it's not a coincidence. Eight 523 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:54,040 Speaker 1: four four nine, eight two five. Will take some calls 524 00:32:54,040 --> 00:33:08,959 Speaker 1: after this break, Stay with me. Coming up next hour. 525 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna address the possibility of a prisoner release by 526 00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:18,080 Speaker 1: North Korea because of Trump. Not much of a media 527 00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 1: and much media attention on that, huh uh. And also 528 00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 1: I might have some more on Charlie Rose, the crusty 529 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 1: Paul uh interesting news about CBS, all these networks that 530 00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:34,160 Speaker 1: were all about me too, Not so much. But let's 531 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 1: take some calls here, Jesse and Louisiana. Hey, Jesse, everybody, 532 00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 1: what's going on? I'm good man, thank you for your call. 533 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 1: I gotta ask you this in all serious seriousness. Now 534 00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:48,280 Speaker 1: you talk to me a bunch of times, and you 535 00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:50,440 Speaker 1: always seem to be pretty serious with me, But this 536 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:54,640 Speaker 1: is a serious question. I need a serious answer. What 537 00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:58,920 Speaker 1: what do you think they've got on Jeff Sessions. It's 538 00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 1: got him sitting on his hands like this. I mean, 539 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:04,200 Speaker 1: we own the House, we own the Senate, we own 540 00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 1: the White House, Yet they control the narrative. They're the 541 00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:10,759 Speaker 1: ones running with the ball no matter what direction the 542 00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:14,600 Speaker 1: ball goes. I just think that Sessions. I think that 543 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:17,280 Speaker 1: Sessions is uh. I think he's kind of a boy scout. 544 00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:19,920 Speaker 1: I don't think that he understands or I don't. I 545 00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:22,239 Speaker 1: think if he could go back, maybe he would take 546 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:25,759 Speaker 1: a different approach to this whole special counsel thing. But 547 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:27,520 Speaker 1: I think he figured, well, you know, this is the 548 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:31,160 Speaker 1: process and I should procuse myself and you know, so 549 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 1: I think he made a mistake, but I don't think 550 00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 1: it's out of bad intentions. So I don't think they've 551 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:39,319 Speaker 1: got anything on him, because why sit and be in 552 00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:41,880 Speaker 1: the position he's in. Right, He's kinda he's in a 553 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:46,560 Speaker 1: rough spot. Well, yeah, I agree he's in a rough spot. 554 00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 1: But I mean, I hate to say it this way, 555 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:53,040 Speaker 1: but you know, I'm a political idiot. I just really 556 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 1: started tuning into this whole presidency when Trump ran. Before that, 557 00:34:57,160 --> 00:35:01,080 Speaker 1: I could care less. I voted Republican. But Jeff's been 558 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 1: doing this for years and years and years, and he 559 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:06,640 Speaker 1: knows the ram knows the ramifications of what's going on, 560 00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:13,680 Speaker 1: and he proclaims himself to be US trunk supporter. Now, 561 00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:16,319 Speaker 1: I know he should have been prepared. He he knows 562 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 1: he should have been prepared for the fight. I just 563 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:20,080 Speaker 1: think he made a mistake. But Jesse Shields high. Thanks 564 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 1: for calling Louisiana Jason in Phoenix. Good to have you serve. 565 00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:26,520 Speaker 1: We got about a minute. Hey she'll die, But um, 566 00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 1: my question is Um, what under the treason laws couldn't 567 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 1: Trump set here and use the Marines to go against 568 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:40,359 Speaker 1: all enemies foreign and domestic. These people are like completely 569 00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:45,400 Speaker 1: going there undermining the constitution. This isn't freedom of speech, 570 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 1: it's just propaganda. And well they're using there, but they're weaponizing. 571 00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:50,800 Speaker 1: You're kind of asking how he can use the system 572 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:52,960 Speaker 1: to fight back in this case, in that case the military, 573 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 1: but they're weaponizing the the legal system and the bureaucracy 574 00:35:56,760 --> 00:36:00,680 Speaker 1: against the administration. So um, but Jason Shield time and 575 00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 1: thank you for your call.

And I'm referring you back 609 00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:07,200 Speaker 1: to the comments that you yourself just mentioned a few 610 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 1: minutes ago about the timeline for Mayor Julie. When the 611 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:13,920 Speaker 1: President so often says things that turn out not to 612 00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:17,480 Speaker 1: be true, when the President of White House show what 613 00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:20,399 Speaker 1: appears to be a blatant disregard for the truth, how 614 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:25,080 Speaker 1: for the American people to trust or believe what is 615 00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:27,920 Speaker 1: set here, what is set by the president. We give 616 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:31,000 Speaker 1: the very best information that we have at the time. 617 00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:33,840 Speaker 1: I do that every single day and will continue to 618 00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:38,439 Speaker 1: do that every day under this position. You know, maybe 619 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:41,280 Speaker 1: if the media was a little less obsessed with Jason 620 00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 1: down the specifics of the Stormy Daniels story, which is, 621 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:49,640 Speaker 1: you know, they're they're they're all in a tizzy. I 622 00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:53,240 Speaker 1: think a good way to describe them right now, because 623 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:58,160 Speaker 1: ru Giuliani last night said that Trump paid back the 624 00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:01,959 Speaker 1: dollars Trump paid a hundred thirty thousand dollars to Michael 625 00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:08,359 Speaker 1: Cohen who paid hush money. Now, guys were all adults here, right, 626 00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:10,040 Speaker 1: Although if you have young ones listening, and I guess 627 00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:13,239 Speaker 1: they're not technically adults, but we're all adults here. Do 628 00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:15,799 Speaker 1: you by on her thirty thars for hush money if 629 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:19,719 Speaker 1: if nothing happened? I think we only know the answer 630 00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:22,560 Speaker 1: for that, right, But then also, do I care who 631 00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:27,239 Speaker 1: the President's left with ten years ago? No? No, does 632 00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 1: that mean that I change my view of what conduct 633 00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:33,640 Speaker 1: is is ethical and gentlemanly in the world and and 634 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:36,840 Speaker 1: moral now? But it just means that we're dealing with 635 00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:39,480 Speaker 1: an imperfect political world, my friends, and we are in 636 00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:41,759 Speaker 1: the midst of a storm, and we have sides to pick. 637 00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:45,839 Speaker 1: That's just the way it is. But if they spent 638 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:49,440 Speaker 1: a little less time focused on a little less time 639 00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:52,360 Speaker 1: focused on the stormy Daniel story, maybe they wouldn't have 640 00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:56,840 Speaker 1: some of the problems they do, Like the fake news 641 00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:00,200 Speaker 1: that they reported on earlier today, which it was, by 642 00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:05,680 Speaker 1: the way, fake news about Michael Cohen Poles. Who's puls 643 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:09,520 Speaker 1: your pulse? Who's Poles? That guy? Remember him? Lawyer that 644 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 1: had his office rated by Mueller something that you usually 645 00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:16,040 Speaker 1: expect or Okay, I'm sorry, it wasn't Muller Southern District 646 00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:20,520 Speaker 1: of New York. It was outsourced by Mueller's special Council 647 00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:22,840 Speaker 1: to the Southern District. The Southern District did the dirty 648 00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:27,200 Speaker 1: work for Mueller. But usually you think they would raid 649 00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:30,200 Speaker 1: the offices of a lawyer who was, you know, working 650 00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:33,160 Speaker 1: for like a drug cartel and connecting the cartel with 651 00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:37,359 Speaker 1: Hitman or something. Not someone who's known Trump a long 652 00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:41,080 Speaker 1: time and and has to deal with and has dell 653 00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:46,560 Speaker 1: with some of the uh specific in particular pitfalls of 654 00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:54,080 Speaker 1: being a prominent person who has a colorful, a colorful 655 00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:58,920 Speaker 1: social life. I guess we could say, um, but they 656 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:01,479 Speaker 1: said today they were poor at NBC News, big story, 657 00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:05,480 Speaker 1: and I think, yeah, I've mentioned it, Cohen wire tapped, 658 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:07,680 Speaker 1: and this would have gone under the police state tactics 659 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:13,799 Speaker 1: that I've been talking about. Cohen wire tapped. Um, Well, 660 00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:17,279 Speaker 1: it turns out that was false. It turns out that 661 00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:23,160 Speaker 1: the the the intrepid journalists over to NBC have had 662 00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:26,000 Speaker 1: to issue a correction on that one. They don't know 663 00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:29,000 Speaker 1: if it is a phone was wire tapped. But what 664 00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:33,000 Speaker 1: I think is so interesting about that story is that 665 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:37,520 Speaker 1: they had there was not a hint of outrage. There 666 00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:40,800 Speaker 1: was glee. It was the opposite of outrage. There was 667 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:48,600 Speaker 1: glee from the media over the idea that Trump, or 668 00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:52,680 Speaker 1: rather that Trump's lawyer Cohen, may have had his phone 669 00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:58,480 Speaker 1: call or phone calls to the White House actively monitored 670 00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:03,560 Speaker 1: under reveillance, just the same way that when Cohen's a 671 00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:08,439 Speaker 1: client privilege was essentially I don't care. People are gonna say, oh, Buck, 672 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:10,360 Speaker 1: they have a separate they have a clean team, and 673 00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:14,640 Speaker 1: all that. That's crap. It was the attorney client privilege 674 00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:18,640 Speaker 1: was annihilated, and that was the purpose of it. Trust me, 675 00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:22,200 Speaker 1: you can't the clean team. This is like, it's like 676 00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:25,760 Speaker 1: self grading a math test. Okay. You know, I remember 677 00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:28,000 Speaker 1: being in a class where the teacher was like, okay, 678 00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 1: we're all gonna grade each other's tests, and you just 679 00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:32,960 Speaker 1: made sure your buddy had either your test or you 680 00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:35,080 Speaker 1: had your own test when they shuffled them around and 681 00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:37,960 Speaker 1: you get to self grade, all of a sudden, my 682 00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:40,799 Speaker 1: math skills were probably a lot better. Right, Let's be real. 683 00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:45,279 Speaker 1: That's what the FBI is doing here. They're they're self 684 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:52,239 Speaker 1: grading their tests. Um, that's ah, that's what I see 685 00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:54,440 Speaker 1: happening here. But we we we do have to talk 686 00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:56,400 Speaker 1: a little bit about so any the Cohen story was false, 687 00:42:56,719 --> 00:42:58,799 Speaker 1: was not real. But you see the media once again, 688 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:02,360 Speaker 1: they have no that they don't care about civil liberties, 689 00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:04,520 Speaker 1: they don't care about individual rights, that don't care and 690 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:06,480 Speaker 1: none of that that that's all out the window if 691 00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:13,920 Speaker 1: it hurts Trump. And the Cohen story is another instance 692 00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:16,600 Speaker 1: of that. I've never seen people so excited about the 693 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:22,640 Speaker 1: prospect of ruining a lawyer's life because of a what 694 00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:26,879 Speaker 1: is at best and arguable it's not even clear cut 695 00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:32,279 Speaker 1: an arguable campaign contribution. But it goes to my This 696 00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:37,320 Speaker 1: goes into my thesis of just like campuses, just like media, 697 00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:42,760 Speaker 1: just like newsrooms. Uh, the left has infiltrated the virus 698 00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:45,680 Speaker 1: of progressivism has spread so far and so deep in 699 00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:53,080 Speaker 1: many American institutions that we got big problems, including the 700 00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:56,839 Speaker 1: prosecutor's offices. Now because conservative prosecutors and I have friends 701 00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:59,640 Speaker 1: who are prosecutors, are conservative. They're like the laws, the law, 702 00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:03,719 Speaker 1: this is about justice. Progressive prosecutors are like, oh man, 703 00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:08,000 Speaker 1: will this make Rachel Maddow happy? I should press charges 704 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:11,719 Speaker 1: against this guy? Is this gonna get me a high five? 705 00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:16,839 Speaker 1: For Manniston, Cooper, Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi? Sweet, let's really 706 00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:21,000 Speaker 1: make an example of whoever this is. That's how that's 707 00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:22,680 Speaker 1: how this works. That's how they're that's how they play 708 00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:26,880 Speaker 1: the game, and it's uh, it's troubling to see it 709 00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:31,200 Speaker 1: play out time and again. They're going after they are 710 00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:34,760 Speaker 1: excited at the prospect of getting someone for a campaign finance. 711 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:41,320 Speaker 1: Look what they did with Thenesta SUSA. Similar cases, similar cases, 712 00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:46,359 Speaker 1: way more lenient. But you know, he's a conservative critic 713 00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:49,000 Speaker 1: of Obama made a lot of money making some very 714 00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:53,120 Speaker 1: impactful people. Get mad when when we know people say 715 00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:57,040 Speaker 1: it's not really a word or to use wrong whatever, powerful? 716 00:44:57,040 --> 00:45:01,880 Speaker 1: How about that some powerful movies article of Obama? And 717 00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:04,000 Speaker 1: then when it when it came time to see if 718 00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:05,880 Speaker 1: he got the benefit of the doubt from the Oh 719 00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,440 Speaker 1: that's right, the southern district of New York. What a surprise. 720 00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:12,160 Speaker 1: The answer was no, No, he did not get the 721 00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:15,440 Speaker 1: benefit of the doubt. But this then brings me to 722 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:19,120 Speaker 1: the the the takeaways from I know you may have 723 00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:20,920 Speaker 1: heard some of the Giuliana stuff and all day, and 724 00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:24,160 Speaker 1: I make a point on this show of talking about 725 00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:26,960 Speaker 1: things that you don't hear elsewhere, right, But sometimes you know, 726 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:29,839 Speaker 1: when there's a news story that's so big, even if 727 00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:32,200 Speaker 1: you might have spent a little time or elsewhere, I'm 728 00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:33,839 Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna talk to you about it, but keep 729 00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:35,480 Speaker 1: in mind, I do a different this is the this 730 00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:38,600 Speaker 1: is Buck style, so that's always gonna be a little 731 00:45:39,520 --> 00:45:43,319 Speaker 1: a little bit of a uh spicy spinoff of whatever 732 00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:48,200 Speaker 1: else you've heard. Maybe I'll get time. No, no, I 733 00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:50,600 Speaker 1: was about to go down a completely separate rabbit hole, 734 00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:52,560 Speaker 1: but I'm gonna hold off on that. I'm gonna hold 735 00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:53,879 Speaker 1: off on that. I got a bunch of them.

Sorry, Jim, You're a liar, a disgraceful liar. 802 00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:46,919 Speaker 1: Every FBI agent in America has his head down because 803 00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:51,040 Speaker 1: he called me should be prosecuted for leaking uh confidential 804 00:49:51,160 --> 00:49:56,560 Speaker 1: FBI information when he leaked his report intended to develop 805 00:49:56,640 --> 00:49:59,560 Speaker 1: a special prosecutor for the President of the United States. 806 00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:04,480 Speaker 1: I have never ever turned over a doctor. You know me, 807 00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:08,920 Speaker 1: Sean you know me wants a charity. Uh A lot 808 00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:12,960 Speaker 1: of allegations to my mom. Never leaked a damn thing. 809 00:50:14,200 --> 00:50:17,360 Speaker 1: I would have considered resigning if I ever did that. 810 00:50:19,320 --> 00:50:21,280 Speaker 1: I worked for the CIA, I worked for the NYPD 811 00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:24,560 Speaker 1: in talence division. As you know, not only have I 812 00:50:24,640 --> 00:50:28,640 Speaker 1: never leaked any documents, I never even considered leaking documents, 813 00:50:28,719 --> 00:50:34,759 Speaker 1: including documents that we're not necessarily uh legally protected, but 814 00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:38,759 Speaker 1: that were you know, administrative use, or that were you know, 815 00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:42,920 Speaker 1: an internal right. You know, I wouldn't have done that. 816 00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:45,480 Speaker 1: It just would have never occurred to me to do that. 817 00:50:45,600 --> 00:50:47,320 Speaker 1: I would have found it unethical, would have thought it 818 00:50:47,400 --> 00:50:52,960 Speaker 1: was wrong to do that, and to use access to 819 00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:55,480 Speaker 1: the President of the United States when you are the 820 00:50:55,680 --> 00:51:01,319 Speaker 1: FBI director, to further a personal vendetta, as I've been. 821 00:51:01,520 --> 00:51:03,600 Speaker 1: I think this is one thing that gets skipped over 822 00:51:03,800 --> 00:51:05,640 Speaker 1: so much. Of course media doesn't want to touch this. 823 00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:09,200 Speaker 1: But if the President can't have a conversation with the 824 00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:12,480 Speaker 1: FBI director that he doesn't think is literally going to 825 00:51:12,600 --> 00:51:15,200 Speaker 1: be leaked to the New York Times, how can he 826 00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:17,440 Speaker 1: have any faith in the in his conversations with the FBI. 827 00:51:18,640 --> 00:51:21,400 Speaker 1: How can he have any faith that any member of 828 00:51:21,840 --> 00:51:25,799 Speaker 1: the senior member of the administration is on the up 829 00:51:25,880 --> 00:51:30,520 Speaker 1: and up. These people talking about defending our institutions. So 830 00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:34,600 Speaker 1: the Republic is under assault because of trump fascisms coming 831 00:51:34,640 --> 00:51:38,440 Speaker 1: to America. No, it's not. But you want to talk 832 00:51:38,440 --> 00:51:42,879 Speaker 1: about institutions and the damage being done. Uh, they're doing 833 00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:48,359 Speaker 1: thermonuclear level damage to the trust that the president can 834 00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:51,239 Speaker 1: put in those around them. And he really, like I said, 835 00:51:51,320 --> 00:51:53,960 Speaker 1: this is not about the Agriculture Department, Okay, is not 836 00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:56,440 Speaker 1: the Department of the Interior. The president needs people to talk. 837 00:51:56,480 --> 00:51:59,760 Speaker 1: The FBI director talk, the CIA director talked to Director 838 00:51:59,800 --> 00:52:03,680 Speaker 1: of National Intelligence, you know, people like Comey Brennan Clapper. 839 00:52:04,560 --> 00:52:05,839 Speaker 1: He needs to be able to speak to those kinds 840 00:52:05,880 --> 00:52:08,520 Speaker 1: of folks and not feel like, uh, is this gonna 841 00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:13,000 Speaker 1: end up on MSNBC later? Does anyone think that that 842 00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:15,440 Speaker 1: would be interrational thought for a president to have at 843 00:52:15,480 --> 00:52:18,120 Speaker 1: this point? I think no, we all know why that 844 00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:24,680 Speaker 1: concern is is very real. But here's what got everybody all, 845 00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:27,040 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. I was actually last night. I was 846 00:52:27,120 --> 00:52:28,880 Speaker 1: trying to have a kind of have a quiet night 847 00:52:28,920 --> 00:52:31,320 Speaker 1: down here in d C. I don't kick back and 848 00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:34,240 Speaker 1: relax a little bit, you know, turn off my jets, 849 00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:39,600 Speaker 1: go back to neutral. And this is what got everyone 850 00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:44,120 Speaker 1: all crazy. Place seven having something to do with paying 851 00:52:44,680 --> 00:52:48,120 Speaker 1: some Stormy Daniels woman a hundred and thirties thousand, I mean, 852 00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:51,120 Speaker 1: which is going to turn out to be perfectly legal. 853 00:52:52,480 --> 00:52:55,480 Speaker 1: That money was not campaign money. Sorry, I'm giving you 854 00:52:55,560 --> 00:52:58,879 Speaker 1: a fact now that you don't know. It's not campaign money. 855 00:52:59,600 --> 00:53:04,600 Speaker 1: No MH campaign finance violation. So they funneled it through 856 00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:07,720 Speaker 1: the law firm, funnel through law firm, and the president 857 00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:12,879 Speaker 1: repaid it. So do you do you think that we're 858 00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:16,359 Speaker 1: going to hear more? Um? Do you think that we're 859 00:53:16,400 --> 00:53:19,960 Speaker 1: gonna hear more about this after it it has found 860 00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:23,919 Speaker 1: that it's not actually illegal. Why are they even making 861 00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:26,120 Speaker 1: the claim that it's illegal. Let's understand this because they 862 00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:30,200 Speaker 1: have to think about this. If the payment to storemy 863 00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:35,560 Speaker 1: Daniels is not illegal, what justification can there be for 864 00:53:35,719 --> 00:53:40,280 Speaker 1: violating the president's well, the president's relationship and the attorney 865 00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:44,840 Speaker 1: client privilege that attaches for for Trump and Cohen. So 866 00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:47,320 Speaker 1: that's why they have to use this flimsy pretext. It 867 00:53:47,480 --> 00:53:52,680 Speaker 1: is a pretext. Giuliani knows this. Look, Rudy Giuliani. I 868 00:53:52,719 --> 00:53:55,560 Speaker 1: will say this for the guy. He knows. He knows 869 00:53:55,600 --> 00:53:58,040 Speaker 1: how this game has played. He he was a brass 870 00:53:58,120 --> 00:54:02,080 Speaker 1: knuckle wearing prosecutor back in the day. You know, he 871 00:54:02,239 --> 00:54:09,080 Speaker 1: came from the you know, the the Scottish Alleyway brawl 872 00:54:09,239 --> 00:54:13,040 Speaker 1: school of how to get things done as a prosecutor, 873 00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:14,719 Speaker 1: and now he was going after the mob. So it 874 00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:17,759 Speaker 1: was great, right, take all those guys down. But he 875 00:54:18,040 --> 00:54:21,200 Speaker 1: hasn't played in games. He understands how to use leverage, 876 00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:22,800 Speaker 1: and he knows how the other side is going to 877 00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:27,040 Speaker 1: do that now too. So you know that that was 878 00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:29,600 Speaker 1: an important, important part of us. But then also the 879 00:54:30,160 --> 00:54:32,440 Speaker 1: left is gonna call this what about is hum but 880 00:54:32,560 --> 00:54:35,680 Speaker 1: I would just say it's it's being rational. I mean, 881 00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:38,279 Speaker 1: he was saying that all of what we're seeing now, 882 00:54:38,400 --> 00:54:45,640 Speaker 1: all these legal processes that are being used, that are 883 00:54:45,680 --> 00:54:49,800 Speaker 1: being weaponized against the president United States, we're not just 884 00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:54,680 Speaker 1: turned off when it comes to Hillary Clinton. They went 885 00:54:54,719 --> 00:54:58,440 Speaker 1: in the opposite direction. It's not that they didn't they 886 00:54:58,480 --> 00:55:05,040 Speaker 1: didn't aggressively prosecutor. They aggressively work to not prosecutor. But 887 00:55:05,160 --> 00:55:09,080 Speaker 1: they actually rewrote the law. They're not prosecutor. That's what 888 00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:13,279 Speaker 1: Comby did. And Juliani understands this, and he and he 889 00:55:13,400 --> 00:55:17,120 Speaker 1: got into this a little bit play eight and then 890 00:55:17,239 --> 00:55:20,200 Speaker 1: nine thirteen crimes she committed. And when we got up 891 00:55:20,239 --> 00:55:25,839 Speaker 1: to about eighteen, I'm sorry, Hillary, I know you're very 892 00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:30,359 Speaker 1: disappointed to win that you're a criminal. Equal justice would 893 00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:34,320 Speaker 1: mean you should go to jail. Uh the I do 894 00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:37,040 Speaker 1: not know why the Justice Department is not investigating you. 895 00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:42,560 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna have my client, my president, my friend, 896 00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:45,960 Speaker 1: and a president has achieved more in a year and 897 00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:48,600 Speaker 1: a half, against all odds, than anyone had a right 898 00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:51,879 Speaker 1: to expect. I'm not gonna let him he treated worse 899 00:55:51,960 --> 00:55:55,719 Speaker 1: than Bill Clinton, who definitely was a liar under oath. 900 00:55:56,520 --> 00:55:59,919 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna let him. He's being treated much worse 901 00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:02,480 Speaker 1: and Hillary Clinton, who had no right to any of 902 00:56:02,560 --> 00:56:05,000 Speaker 1: that stuff. So I'm not gonna let him be treated 903 00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:08,080 Speaker 1: worse than Hillary Clinton. I think Jay and I will 904 00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:12,200 Speaker 1: insist that they're gonna have to treat him the same 905 00:56:12,239 --> 00:56:14,480 Speaker 1: way as Clinton. Two and a half hours we end, 906 00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:21,280 Speaker 1: we walk out. Now, I hope that they don't actually 907 00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:25,799 Speaker 1: I I they should force a subpoena or they're rather 908 00:56:25,840 --> 00:56:30,200 Speaker 1: they should force testimony by the president. He should not 909 00:56:30,320 --> 00:56:34,120 Speaker 1: willingly submit to an interrogation by Mueller, because it it 910 00:56:34,280 --> 00:56:37,880 Speaker 1: really in a sense, Look, this is just my understand 911 00:56:37,920 --> 00:56:39,719 Speaker 1: that a lot of this comes out of interpretation. We're 912 00:56:39,719 --> 00:56:41,960 Speaker 1: an uncharted territory here. People say it is this or 913 00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:44,000 Speaker 1: it is that. It's their opinion of this or that, 914 00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:47,200 Speaker 1: because who knows how some of this is gonna shake out, 915 00:56:48,440 --> 00:56:52,000 Speaker 1: But do they do they have grounds to issue a 916 00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:54,120 Speaker 1: subpoena of the President short I think it's it's the 917 00:56:54,680 --> 00:56:56,360 Speaker 1: fair or right thing for them to, of course not, 918 00:56:56,760 --> 00:56:58,399 Speaker 1: and I think Trump needs to fight them every step 919 00:56:58,480 --> 00:57:00,120 Speaker 1: the way that at least my approach on this eight 920 00:57:00,200 --> 00:57:03,320 Speaker 1: four to five team will be back in just a 921 00:57:03,400 --> 00:57:16,840 Speaker 1: few He's back with you now, because when it comes 922 00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:22,680 Speaker 1: to the fight for truth, the fuck never stops. I'd 923 00:57:22,720 --> 00:57:25,640 Speaker 1: like to tell you good news when I can, and 924 00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:29,440 Speaker 1: I I don't. I don't have much more detail on 925 00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:31,880 Speaker 1: this because I haven't seen the show yet, but I 926 00:57:31,960 --> 00:57:38,400 Speaker 1: am seeing here reporting that indicates that Last Man Standing 927 00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:40,920 Speaker 1: with Tim Allen is in fact gonna make a comeback. 928 00:57:41,200 --> 00:57:44,200 Speaker 1: They're gonna They're gonna have new seasons of it.

He needs to go on national television 979 01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:31,320 Speaker 1: and do sort of a disstressed that address them down country. 980 01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:34,120 Speaker 1: Two less of mains, one miss More and his team, 981 01:00:34,720 --> 01:00:37,320 Speaker 1: and one with everyone with fo charged or not charged 982 01:00:37,360 --> 01:00:41,840 Speaker 1: with something that's been investigated. Pardon every one of them 983 01:00:42,120 --> 01:00:47,160 Speaker 1: on one list, including himself, and all of this becaution 984 01:00:48,240 --> 01:00:52,840 Speaker 1: fire the other people get car intreates back to the 985 01:00:52,920 --> 01:00:55,600 Speaker 1: people that have been bankrupt, and then get at the 986 01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:59,480 Speaker 1: point all of this Dominees said, they're just sitting on 987 01:00:59,560 --> 01:01:08,480 Speaker 1: their hands, thought, well, I can say that my understanding, 988 01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:13,520 Speaker 1: uh is that the president probably couldn't pardon himself. But 989 01:01:13,640 --> 01:01:16,000 Speaker 1: keep in mind, these are opinions, right, These are not 990 01:01:16,320 --> 01:01:19,760 Speaker 1: These are not hardened festivals. No one's ever tried. But 991 01:01:19,920 --> 01:01:22,320 Speaker 1: you're right about pardoning everybody else. And keep in mind 992 01:01:22,360 --> 01:01:26,480 Speaker 1: that Clinton pardoned Mark Rich, who wasn't somebody who had 993 01:01:26,480 --> 01:01:30,480 Speaker 1: been convicted. Mark Rich was a fugitive from justice who, 994 01:01:30,560 --> 01:01:33,800 Speaker 1: by the way, was pardoned by Clinton because Hillary and 995 01:01:33,840 --> 01:01:36,080 Speaker 1: the d n C wanted money from Rich's wife, who 996 01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:38,720 Speaker 1: was a big donor to the Democrat party. Side note, 997 01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:42,320 Speaker 1: but he was a fugitive from justice and they pardoned him, 998 01:01:42,880 --> 01:01:47,240 Speaker 1: so you could also have a a preemptive pardon to 999 01:01:47,320 --> 01:01:50,080 Speaker 1: be sure. Uh and and so yeah, he could pardon 1000 01:01:50,120 --> 01:01:52,400 Speaker 1: these people. I do believe he should pardon General Flynn. 1001 01:01:53,400 --> 01:01:55,560 Speaker 1: I say, go for it. I think it's I think 1002 01:01:55,560 --> 01:01:58,560 Speaker 1: it's a complete garbage case. I think it's nonsense. You know, 1003 01:01:58,600 --> 01:01:59,760 Speaker 1: I don't know if you I mean man of for 1004 01:02:00,880 --> 01:02:02,560 Speaker 1: Manna for it might have been like hiding a lot 1005 01:02:02,600 --> 01:02:03,800 Speaker 1: of money from the I R S for all I know. 1006 01:02:03,880 --> 01:02:07,480 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised. Who else you know, that guy 1007 01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:11,240 Speaker 1: Alex von Schmergeenbergen, whatever the guy's name is, from the UK. 1008 01:02:11,640 --> 01:02:13,320 Speaker 1: I think he got like thirty days, so I don't 1009 01:02:13,320 --> 01:02:17,520 Speaker 1: think a pardon really is necessary for him. Um and 1010 01:02:17,640 --> 01:02:20,040 Speaker 1: then but yeah, I mean you're talking about the other 1011 01:02:20,120 --> 01:02:23,000 Speaker 1: White House of well Cohen obviously, But keep in mind, 1012 01:02:23,040 --> 01:02:26,000 Speaker 1: if they try to get Cohing on some state charges, 1013 01:02:26,080 --> 01:02:29,680 Speaker 1: a presidential pardon would not undo that, so they'll they'll 1014 01:02:29,720 --> 01:02:31,320 Speaker 1: still try to get Cohen one way or the other. 1015 01:02:31,840 --> 01:02:33,240 Speaker 1: Thank you for calling in Daniel. By the way, I 1016 01:02:33,280 --> 01:02:38,080 Speaker 1: do appreciate it. Uh, I'm all in favor of I 1017 01:02:38,320 --> 01:02:40,600 Speaker 1: think the president needs to flex some muscles here and 1018 01:02:40,800 --> 01:02:42,320 Speaker 1: and get after it in a whole bunch of ways. 1019 01:02:42,360 --> 01:02:46,720 Speaker 1: I want declassification of all this stuff around the dossier. 1020 01:02:47,320 --> 01:02:49,040 Speaker 1: I want to know more about the fies A warrants. 1021 01:02:49,040 --> 01:02:50,560 Speaker 1: I want to I want a lot of it out there, 1022 01:02:51,480 --> 01:02:54,040 Speaker 1: booces and methods. I know a lot about sources and methods. 1023 01:02:54,080 --> 01:02:56,200 Speaker 1: I actually had to deal with him from for a living, okay, 1024 01:02:56,320 --> 01:02:58,960 Speaker 1: and a lot of times when you're looking at it, 1025 01:02:59,480 --> 01:03:02,720 Speaker 1: they air the side of caution. They could redact names 1026 01:03:02,760 --> 01:03:06,480 Speaker 1: as necessary, but they redacted way too much information from 1027 01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:09,320 Speaker 1: what has already been released. In my by the way 1028 01:03:09,320 --> 01:03:13,000 Speaker 1: I saw this, Mike and John important, I am h. 1029 01:03:13,200 --> 01:03:20,040 Speaker 1: O means what the acronym? Mike?

The acronym when people write capital 1032 01:03:29,600 --> 01:03:31,280 Speaker 1: I A H or it doesn't have the capital just 1033 01:03:31,440 --> 01:03:33,080 Speaker 1: I am h. I would love to tell you, but 1034 01:03:33,200 --> 01:03:36,280 Speaker 1: but John just blurted it out. So no, no, no, 1035 01:03:36,640 --> 01:03:39,760 Speaker 1: because there's there's two. There's two, there's two acceptable answers, John, 1036 01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:41,960 Speaker 1: what do you think it is? In my humble opinion. 1037 01:03:42,560 --> 01:03:47,720 Speaker 1: Do you agree with him, Mike, do you agree this 1038 01:03:47,840 --> 01:03:49,880 Speaker 1: is a real question? Do you agree that I am 1039 01:03:50,000 --> 01:03:53,920 Speaker 1: h O means in my humble opinion. I don't know 1040 01:03:53,920 --> 01:03:55,600 Speaker 1: why I can't get an answer from Mike. Is this 1041 01:03:55,680 --> 01:03:58,320 Speaker 1: is not a trick question? Okay, No, I agree, I 1042 01:03:58,440 --> 01:04:01,960 Speaker 1: totally agree. Yeah, he's, he's, he's he's laughing up there. 1043 01:04:01,960 --> 01:04:03,960 Speaker 1: I know what's going I know you two. You two 1044 01:04:04,000 --> 01:04:05,640 Speaker 1: are having a party up in New York when I'm 1045 01:04:05,640 --> 01:04:08,200 Speaker 1: down here in the swamp. I know what's happening. That 1046 01:04:08,360 --> 01:04:12,320 Speaker 1: G four is only for after the show, gentlemen, but no, seriously, 1047 01:04:12,480 --> 01:04:17,280 Speaker 1: the the there's an online poll right now that is 1048 01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:20,880 Speaker 1: saying that I think half of people BuzzFeed put this 1049 01:04:21,000 --> 01:04:24,720 Speaker 1: out there. I think it's in my honest opinion. Now 1050 01:04:24,840 --> 01:04:26,840 Speaker 1: are these people savages? I don't know. I leave that 1051 01:04:26,960 --> 01:04:29,520 Speaker 1: to you, but I've always I'm with you, guys in 1052 01:04:29,640 --> 01:04:33,040 Speaker 1: my humble opinion, I am HO. But people are out 1053 01:04:33,080 --> 01:04:36,760 Speaker 1: there saying that it's in my honest opinion, and I 1054 01:04:36,920 --> 01:04:40,960 Speaker 1: just think that, yeah, this is not nom there are rules, right, 1055 01:04:41,040 --> 01:04:43,480 Speaker 1: like that's crazy, but but this is what people are saying. 1056 01:04:43,560 --> 01:04:45,720 Speaker 1: You guys can all go see it yourself. It's on BuzzFeed. 1057 01:04:46,040 --> 01:04:49,320 Speaker 1: They're they're just trying to change the English language as 1058 01:04:49,400 --> 01:04:51,720 Speaker 1: we know it. And uh, and I will I will 1059 01:04:51,800 --> 01:04:55,040 Speaker 1: not stand for it. I will not abide. The dude 1060 01:04:55,600 --> 01:04:58,680 Speaker 1: does not abide. I'll give you that. So Okay, back 1061 01:04:58,720 --> 01:05:01,360 Speaker 1: to pardons and U and all the rest died here. Um. 1062 01:05:02,440 --> 01:05:04,800 Speaker 1: I think that they should pardon Flynn. I think that 1063 01:05:05,400 --> 01:05:11,840 Speaker 1: they should, um make sure that as much information as 1064 01:05:11,840 --> 01:05:14,840 Speaker 1: possible as out there because this this is as much 1065 01:05:14,880 --> 01:05:17,680 Speaker 1: a narrative fight as it is anything else. Which one 1066 01:05:17,760 --> 01:05:19,640 Speaker 1: other thing, and this is kind of a mulligan from 1067 01:05:19,680 --> 01:05:22,240 Speaker 1: the last hour. I meant to get to what we 1068 01:05:22,440 --> 01:05:27,840 Speaker 1: think of as the as the parameters of the Mueller investigation. 1069 01:05:27,920 --> 01:05:30,680 Speaker 1: Actually turns out it was just a fraction of the 1070 01:05:31,280 --> 01:05:35,600 Speaker 1: Mueller investigation. Um, they've redacted a lot more of what 1071 01:05:35,720 --> 01:05:44,920 Speaker 1: it is. But in Rosenstein's in Rosenstein's um memo last August, 1072 01:05:44,960 --> 01:05:48,640 Speaker 1: that outlined the scope of this whole thing. Uh, the 1073 01:05:49,080 --> 01:05:52,200 Speaker 1: there was and there was a public consumption version, and 1074 01:05:52,240 --> 01:05:53,920 Speaker 1: then there was a real version. And we don't get 1075 01:05:53,920 --> 01:05:57,120 Speaker 1: to see the real version. So think about that for 1076 01:05:57,200 --> 01:06:00,040 Speaker 1: a moment. Right, we think we know what rose in 1077 01:06:00,120 --> 01:06:04,160 Speaker 1: Stein authorized mother to look at, but this is reporting 1078 01:06:04,160 --> 01:06:07,600 Speaker 1: from Byron York over the Washington Examiner. Now we don't know, 1079 01:06:08,520 --> 01:06:13,560 Speaker 1: actually we don't know. It's redacted, So who knows where 1080 01:06:13,600 --> 01:06:17,240 Speaker 1: that's gonna stop. At the start? Oh, I I would 1081 01:06:17,280 --> 01:06:20,520 Speaker 1: really I would really like to see the president. Look, 1082 01:06:20,680 --> 01:06:22,320 Speaker 1: I think he needs to throw his weight around on 1083 01:06:22,400 --> 01:06:27,200 Speaker 1: some of these issues, and he understands what kind of 1084 01:06:27,360 --> 01:06:29,240 Speaker 1: what kind of fight he's in, He understands what's going on. 1085 01:06:29,320 --> 01:06:32,959 Speaker 1: I will say, though, Giuliani last night, the comment about 1086 01:06:32,960 --> 01:06:35,920 Speaker 1: how Jared is disposable was was just weird. I do 1087 01:06:36,080 --> 01:06:39,520 Speaker 1: think that was weird, the senior putting aside that he's 1088 01:06:39,560 --> 01:06:43,880 Speaker 1: the President's son in law, senior White House advisor. We 1089 01:06:43,960 --> 01:06:46,040 Speaker 1: don't need to hear that, anyone says. I think Julian 1090 01:06:46,240 --> 01:06:47,640 Speaker 1: was being a little tongue in cheek, I get it, 1091 01:06:47,720 --> 01:06:51,720 Speaker 1: But the media jumped on that right away. I do 1092 01:06:51,840 --> 01:06:54,880 Speaker 1: think it's true though as well. If if they I 1093 01:06:55,280 --> 01:06:58,080 Speaker 1: think that there's a red line, not because the media 1094 01:06:58,160 --> 01:07:00,520 Speaker 1: is ethical or anything like that, because they're not. But 1095 01:07:00,640 --> 01:07:05,800 Speaker 1: I think they know that really going after Ivanka the 1096 01:07:05,840 --> 01:07:09,200 Speaker 1: way they've gone after other members of the administration. Um, 1097 01:07:09,920 --> 01:07:12,680 Speaker 1: I I they're not They're not there yet. They can't 1098 01:07:12,720 --> 01:07:15,240 Speaker 1: do it. Yet they don't. They don't have enough, whereas 1099 01:07:15,280 --> 01:07:17,920 Speaker 1: with other people, they manufacture the pretext to try to 1100 01:07:18,000 --> 01:07:20,400 Speaker 1: go after them. Right, the media will come up with 1101 01:07:20,520 --> 01:07:23,880 Speaker 1: some reason why. Prue It is the worst person ever, 1102 01:07:24,440 --> 01:07:27,160 Speaker 1: Ronnie Jackson is the worst person ever, Michael Cohen is 1103 01:07:27,200 --> 01:07:28,760 Speaker 1: the worst person ever. I mean, you can go to 1104 01:07:28,840 --> 01:07:30,480 Speaker 1: the whole list, right, you know the game they play. 1105 01:07:31,360 --> 01:07:34,160 Speaker 1: I think they try that with Ivanka and it would 1106 01:07:34,200 --> 01:07:38,400 Speaker 1: backfire on them. So I agree with Giuliani in his 1107 01:07:38,480 --> 01:07:42,840 Speaker 1: assessment of that. Um, because Ivanka has in this administration, 1108 01:07:43,880 --> 01:07:46,240 Speaker 1: even among a lot of Democrats and l sale, she's 1109 01:07:46,680 --> 01:07:48,800 Speaker 1: you know, she's considered a voice of reason and obviously 1110 01:07:48,880 --> 01:07:54,240 Speaker 1: she's highly presentable and very articulate. Um, there would be 1111 01:07:54,320 --> 01:07:57,480 Speaker 1: a there would be uh, there'd be an outcry there, 1112 01:07:57,520 --> 01:08:00,920 Speaker 1: I think. But it's just weird. Yeah, you know, Jarry's disposable. 1113 01:08:00,960 --> 01:08:04,720 Speaker 1: I was like, whoa, Julianni, slow your role. I think 1114 01:08:04,760 --> 01:08:07,520 Speaker 1: I'll get to the North Korea. Oh oh my gosh, 1115 01:08:07,680 --> 01:08:10,560 Speaker 1: this this political campaign out of West Virginia.

Uh, you know, up close and personal. 1120 01:08:22,080 --> 01:08:24,559 Speaker 1: There's this race in West Virginia.

In fact, his 1136 01:09:50,920 --> 01:09:53,439 Speaker 1: China family has given him tens of millions of dollars. 1137 01:09:53,880 --> 01:09:57,080 Speaker 1: Mitch's swamp people are now running false negative ads against me. 1138 01:09:57,520 --> 01:10:01,040 Speaker 1: They are also childishly calling me despicable, mentally ill. The 1139 01:10:01,120 --> 01:10:03,559 Speaker 1: ward to drain the swamp and create jobs for West 1140 01:10:03,640 --> 01:10:07,040 Speaker 1: Virginia people has begun that will beat Joe mentioned and 1141 01:10:07,160 --> 01:10:12,479 Speaker 1: ditch cocaine Mitch for the sake of the kids. What 1142 01:10:13,080 --> 01:10:19,439 Speaker 1: was that? Uh m hmm. First of all, is he 1143 01:10:19,640 --> 01:10:22,080 Speaker 1: saying and I have to quote him here, is he 1144 01:10:22,160 --> 01:10:29,000 Speaker 1: saying China people like intentionally to to kind of troll China? 1145 01:10:29,360 --> 01:10:31,920 Speaker 1: Or does he is that what he really thinks that 1146 01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:35,960 Speaker 1: we call people who are from China? Because he says 1147 01:10:35,960 --> 01:10:38,240 Speaker 1: it twice right, and he and he refers to Mitch 1148 01:10:38,360 --> 01:10:44,120 Speaker 1: McConnell's China family, which is also just I mean, this 1149 01:10:44,240 --> 01:10:48,760 Speaker 1: guy is this is a train wreck. Um. But then 1150 01:10:48,840 --> 01:10:51,240 Speaker 1: also at the end, what's with is? Do you guys 1151 01:10:51,320 --> 01:10:53,760 Speaker 1: know by the way, Mike John, what's with cop? What 1152 01:10:53,840 --> 01:10:56,960 Speaker 1: do you say? Cocaine Mitch or something? What was that? 1153 01:10:59,840 --> 01:11:02,679 Speaker 1: I Mike, you got anything on that? I'm I'm sitting 1154 01:11:02,680 --> 01:11:04,599 Speaker 1: here like what does that even? No, it's I think 1155 01:11:04,600 --> 01:11:07,519 Speaker 1: he came out of towards a reason for it. I 1156 01:11:07,640 --> 01:11:09,559 Speaker 1: can't recall, but he came out of like basically left 1157 01:11:09,560 --> 01:11:16,559 Speaker 1: field with it. Huh. Whoa. That was of of all 1158 01:11:16,600 --> 01:11:19,320 Speaker 1: the political ads I've seen it in a while, that 1159 01:11:19,920 --> 01:11:22,200 Speaker 1: was in the class by itself. Now this guy is 1160 01:11:22,400 --> 01:11:27,400 Speaker 1: he's third in that primary. I believe so, but but 1161 01:11:27,479 --> 01:11:30,080 Speaker 1: I don't think he's What if you guys might if 1162 01:11:30,120 --> 01:11:32,560 Speaker 1: you see me pulling on that real quick, give it 1163 01:11:32,640 --> 01:11:35,519 Speaker 1: to me, because I'm from what I understand, it's not 1164 01:11:35,760 --> 01:11:38,400 Speaker 1: a race. That's it's it's not like he's getting one 1165 01:11:38,439 --> 01:11:40,080 Speaker 1: percent of the vote or something. I think he's actually 1166 01:11:40,120 --> 01:11:45,640 Speaker 1: got some people voting for uh now swamp captain. I mean, 1167 01:11:45,680 --> 01:11:47,200 Speaker 1: there there were some things he said, but I'm like, oh, 1168 01:11:47,240 --> 01:11:53,360 Speaker 1: that's gonna resonate, but the whole the China people anyway. 1169 01:11:53,800 --> 01:11:56,360 Speaker 1: And I also think it's a strange thing to to 1170 01:11:56,640 --> 01:12:02,280 Speaker 1: choose to vote for or someone who is a convicted 1171 01:12:02,320 --> 01:12:06,160 Speaker 1: of criminal negligence in a major workplace disaster that claimed 1172 01:12:06,160 --> 01:12:09,960 Speaker 1: a lot of lives. So but then again, I have 1173 01:12:10,080 --> 01:12:12,040 Speaker 1: a cocaine Mitch explanation for you if you want, Yeah, 1174 01:12:12,040 --> 01:12:14,120 Speaker 1: what's the cocaine Mitch explanation? I couldn't. I didn't even 1175 01:12:14,200 --> 01:12:15,920 Speaker 1: I want to be in on this, not a joke, 1176 01:12:16,000 --> 01:12:17,439 Speaker 1: but whatever it is, I want to understand what's he 1177 01:12:17,479 --> 01:12:20,280 Speaker 1: trying to say, as you mentioned, Mitch McConnell's family has 1178 01:12:20,360 --> 01:12:23,599 Speaker 1: ties to China. His father in law founded and owns 1179 01:12:23,640 --> 01:12:27,360 Speaker 1: a large Chinese shipping company, and the company was implicated 1180 01:12:27,400 --> 01:12:30,839 Speaker 1: recently in smuggling a cocaine smuggling from Columbia to Europe. 1181 01:12:31,080 --> 01:12:33,280 Speaker 1: So um, a little bit of a reach, but I 1182 01:12:33,320 --> 01:12:42,200 Speaker 1: think that's his explanation. Wow wow, okay, uh calling him 1183 01:12:42,240 --> 01:12:45,040 Speaker 1: cocaine Mitch, that is that was like of all of 1184 01:12:45,080 --> 01:12:47,280 Speaker 1: all the guys that I think in the in the Senate, 1185 01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:50,240 Speaker 1: maybe back in the eighties, because I'm sure there were 1186 01:12:50,280 --> 01:12:53,720 Speaker 1: a bunch, right if you've seen Charlie Wilson's War, uh 1187 01:12:54,400 --> 01:12:57,080 Speaker 1: you know, but of all the guys, Mitch McConnell will 1188 01:12:57,120 --> 01:13:00,160 Speaker 1: be very low on the list of guy that I 1189 01:13:00,240 --> 01:13:02,880 Speaker 1: could see getting a little too disco, if you know 1190 01:13:02,920 --> 01:13:05,800 Speaker 1: what I mean. I don't think that was mm hmm. 1191 01:13:06,600 --> 01:13:09,320 Speaker 1: Or I'm a I'm a beloover and having a party 1192 01:13:09,320 --> 01:13:13,080 Speaker 1: of were for dramas. Have a nice warm glass of 1193 01:13:13,200 --> 01:13:17,360 Speaker 1: milk and actually I party like Minch McConnell, I like 1194 01:13:17,600 --> 01:13:20,439 Speaker 1: putting on my pj's early a nice glass of milk, 1195 01:13:21,720 --> 01:13:24,080 Speaker 1: some chocolate. It would be it would be a cookie 1196 01:13:24,120 --> 01:13:26,160 Speaker 1: but now it's hard to find good gluten free cookies 1197 01:13:26,200 --> 01:13:28,680 Speaker 1: these days, so that was one of the crazier things. Um. 1198 01:13:29,160 --> 01:13:30,519 Speaker 1: I don't have much time on this one. I just 1199 01:13:30,560 --> 01:13:32,880 Speaker 1: want to get it in before we get to immigration, 1200 01:13:32,960 --> 01:13:36,160 Speaker 1: big topic next hour. And also the some of these 1201 01:13:36,600 --> 01:13:39,400 Speaker 1: planes that have gone down, military planes that have gone 1202 01:13:39,400 --> 01:13:42,720 Speaker 1: down in recent recent years, killed a lot of over 1203 01:13:42,760 --> 01:13:46,160 Speaker 1: a hundred service members, and there's a there's an explanation 1204 01:13:46,200 --> 01:13:47,400 Speaker 1: that I want you all to hear. We've got an 1205 01:13:47,439 --> 01:13:51,960 Speaker 1: expert aviation expert joining military aviation expert talk to us 1206 01:13:52,040 --> 01:13:55,840 Speaker 1: about that specifically. So that's all coming up in the 1207 01:13:55,920 --> 01:14:01,599 Speaker 1: next hour. Um. But but this, uh, I'll probably dig 1208 01:14:01,640 --> 01:14:03,200 Speaker 1: in it a little more tomorrow. It turns out that 1209 01:14:03,240 --> 01:14:05,800 Speaker 1: a whole bunch of folks at CBS where Charlie Rose worked, 1210 01:14:05,840 --> 01:14:09,519 Speaker 1: the Krusty Paul himself, they knew, they didn't care, they 1211 01:14:09,520 --> 01:14:12,880 Speaker 1: didn't do anything about it. True of all these big networks, 1212 01:14:12,880 --> 01:14:14,519 Speaker 1: by the way, that have these huge stars that are 1213 01:14:14,600 --> 01:14:18,200 Speaker 1: just grabbing it ladies and assaulting them left and right, 1214 01:14:19,000 --> 01:14:23,280 Speaker 1: everyone knows, but they are a bunch of greedy hacks 1215 01:14:23,320 --> 01:14:25,200 Speaker 1: and hypocrites, and they didn't do anything about it. So 1216 01:14:25,920 --> 01:14:28,320 Speaker 1: perhaps more time on that one up tomorrow. What's going 1217 01:14:28,360 --> 01:14:30,400 Speaker 1: on with immigration? The border is getting worse, folks, we 1218 01:14:30,479 --> 01:14:34,400 Speaker 1: gotta talk about it. Stay with me.

So you have to find the best. 1223 01:14:44,760 --> 01:14:46,160 Speaker 1: But how do you do that.

And I have been telling you, and gosh, 1244 01:16:04,240 --> 01:16:07,720 Speaker 1: I just I just hit my knees so hard on 1245 01:16:07,840 --> 01:16:10,320 Speaker 1: my desk here in the DC Freedom Hunt. And it 1246 01:16:10,400 --> 01:16:12,559 Speaker 1: was kind of the funny bone. But you know, it's 1247 01:16:12,600 --> 01:16:15,360 Speaker 1: weird about the funny Bone team. It's not funny. There's 1248 01:16:15,400 --> 01:16:17,439 Speaker 1: nothing funny about it. You hit that bone and all 1249 01:16:17,479 --> 01:16:20,560 Speaker 1: of a sudden you're like, oh and so, but the 1250 01:16:20,600 --> 01:16:22,519 Speaker 1: show must go on. So I'm just gonna be I'm 1251 01:16:22,520 --> 01:16:26,440 Speaker 1: gonna man up here. I think I just committed a microaggression. 1252 01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:28,760 Speaker 1: I'm going too, I'm going to have a stiff upper lip. 1253 01:16:29,160 --> 01:16:31,439 Speaker 1: That sounds so British, that doesn't it. I'm going to 1254 01:16:31,560 --> 01:16:35,200 Speaker 1: have a stiff upper lip. Hello, my lip is stiff 1255 01:16:35,320 --> 01:16:38,920 Speaker 1: and it is upper uh. And now I've killed enough. 1256 01:16:39,160 --> 01:16:42,439 Speaker 1: I've given myself enough time that I've recovered from my 1257 01:16:42,479 --> 01:16:46,240 Speaker 1: self inflicted wound here. I've been telling you immigration is 1258 01:16:46,439 --> 01:16:51,800 Speaker 1: going to react to the stories and the administration's posture. Right. 1259 01:16:51,840 --> 01:16:55,600 Speaker 1: You remember, there's always a wedge effect with illegal immigration. 1260 01:16:55,960 --> 01:16:58,560 Speaker 1: You get the first folks that get up to the 1261 01:16:58,640 --> 01:17:00,960 Speaker 1: border that are to claim a sign them if they 1262 01:17:01,080 --> 01:17:03,879 Speaker 1: get into the country, as we see with this caravan. 1263 01:17:04,600 --> 01:17:08,720 Speaker 1: Guess what others are going to follow behind them. That's 1264 01:17:08,760 --> 01:17:12,560 Speaker 1: why the size of the caravan was not that important. 1265 01:17:12,640 --> 01:17:15,600 Speaker 1: It was the media coverage, the fact that there was 1266 01:17:15,640 --> 01:17:18,439 Speaker 1: a focus on it, and the fact that the Trump 1267 01:17:18,479 --> 01:17:23,320 Speaker 1: administration had said, don't worry, we are not gonna let 1268 01:17:23,479 --> 01:17:27,840 Speaker 1: this happen, and it kind of happened. I know there's 1269 01:17:27,880 --> 01:17:29,400 Speaker 1: going to be some who are processed that are not 1270 01:17:29,400 --> 01:17:30,920 Speaker 1: allowed into the country, but they're going to be a 1271 01:17:31,040 --> 01:17:35,280 Speaker 1: whole lot of folks who are in fact going to 1272 01:17:35,520 --> 01:17:39,400 Speaker 1: stay under their asylum claims. And I think that the 1273 01:17:39,479 --> 01:17:42,479 Speaker 1: whole notion of asylum has been abused now right, We're 1274 01:17:42,479 --> 01:17:45,360 Speaker 1: being we're being taken advantage of. That's really one of 1275 01:17:45,400 --> 01:17:49,400 Speaker 1: the underlying truths of our entire migration system. And it 1276 01:17:49,560 --> 01:17:52,320 Speaker 1: and it affects you. It doesn't matter those of you 1277 01:17:52,400 --> 01:17:54,640 Speaker 1: are listening in Montana, by the way, here beautiful this 1278 01:17:54,720 --> 01:17:58,080 Speaker 1: time of year, great fly fishing. Uh. Wherever you are 1279 01:17:58,080 --> 01:17:59,920 Speaker 1: in the country, even if you have a very small 1280 01:18:00,000 --> 01:18:06,960 Speaker 1: all illegal immigrant population, the federal government is providing services 1281 01:18:07,040 --> 01:18:09,760 Speaker 1: and assistance. And because you know the Department Education, your 1282 01:18:09,840 --> 01:18:13,240 Speaker 1: local schools, e r s, hospitals, they're getting funding from 1283 01:18:13,240 --> 01:18:17,200 Speaker 1: the federal government. There's all kinds of ways that your 1284 01:18:17,360 --> 01:18:22,800 Speaker 1: tax dollars are propping up this system. You're subsidizing this illegality. 1285 01:18:23,000 --> 01:18:26,519 Speaker 1: So it affects you wherever you are. Right, just we 1286 01:18:26,640 --> 01:18:29,280 Speaker 1: see what's going on in California. We go to California 1287 01:18:29,400 --> 01:18:32,360 Speaker 1: is being so silly they can't they can't continue at 1288 01:18:32,400 --> 01:18:35,120 Speaker 1: this pace. Yeah, you know what's gonna happen. Eventually they're 1289 01:18:35,120 --> 01:18:38,960 Speaker 1: gonna want just more federal money and they're big enough 1290 01:18:39,120 --> 01:18:42,560 Speaker 1: and have enough political sway because of the enormous population 1291 01:18:42,680 --> 01:18:46,640 Speaker 1: of that state that the left wingers who run the 1292 01:18:46,760 --> 01:18:49,800 Speaker 1: state might actually get their way and more and more 1293 01:18:49,880 --> 01:18:52,960 Speaker 1: federal subsidies. That affects you wherever you are. But the 1294 01:18:54,000 --> 01:18:56,960 Speaker 1: thin wedge of the caravan has already gotten into country. 1295 01:18:56,960 --> 01:19:00,720 Speaker 1: You're gonna see more happening. But I see this in 1296 01:19:00,760 --> 01:19:02,920 Speaker 1: the Washington Times, and I just think to myself, I 1297 01:19:03,040 --> 01:19:05,400 Speaker 1: knew it, this is gonna happen. Here's the piece just 1298 01:19:05,600 --> 01:19:12,320 Speaker 1: from today. Illegal immigration across the Southwest border rose again 1299 01:19:12,640 --> 01:19:19,280 Speaker 1: in April, continuing a surge that has entirely erased President 1300 01:19:19,320 --> 01:19:25,000 Speaker 1: Trump's early gains and left officials in Washington struggling over answers. 1301 01:19:25,800 --> 01:19:31,479 Speaker 1: Nearly thirty nine thousand illegal immigrants were nabbed by the 1302 01:19:31,520 --> 01:19:36,760 Speaker 1: border patrol last month, according to preliminary numbers, and that's 1303 01:19:36,800 --> 01:19:42,960 Speaker 1: a staggering two hundred and thirty three increase over the 1304 01:19:43,160 --> 01:19:47,000 Speaker 1: same month a year ago. That is the biggest year 1305 01:19:47,160 --> 01:19:50,160 Speaker 1: over year increase in records dating back to the beginning 1306 01:19:50,200 --> 01:19:55,160 Speaker 1: of a decade. And quote, folks, the proof is in 1307 01:19:55,280 --> 01:19:58,200 Speaker 1: the pudding, or in this case, the proof is at 1308 01:19:58,240 --> 01:20:02,719 Speaker 1: the border. We east. We can't pretend these numbers aren't 1309 01:20:02,760 --> 01:20:04,920 Speaker 1: what they are, or these are coming right from Immigrations 1310 01:20:04,920 --> 01:20:09,760 Speaker 1: and Customs Enforcement and border patrol and the rhetoric of 1311 01:20:09,840 --> 01:20:12,639 Speaker 1: the Trump administration on this issue. You remember the first year, 1312 01:20:13,360 --> 01:20:17,599 Speaker 1: what happened, big drop in crossings. Why because Trump had 1313 01:20:17,680 --> 01:20:20,840 Speaker 1: promised there would be enforcement, there was gonna be a wall, 1314 01:20:21,320 --> 01:20:24,400 Speaker 1: and there was a new sheriff in town, so to speak. 1315 01:20:24,720 --> 01:20:29,720 Speaker 1: That was what Trump said was going to happen, and 1316 01:20:31,640 --> 01:20:33,720 Speaker 1: that had an effect on how many people tried to 1317 01:20:33,760 --> 01:20:38,479 Speaker 1: come into the country illegally. But wait a second, what 1318 01:20:38,760 --> 01:20:41,000 Speaker 1: what have we seen the last six months or so? 1319 01:20:41,160 --> 01:20:43,360 Speaker 1: And I know, you know it. It would be easier 1320 01:20:43,400 --> 01:20:45,960 Speaker 1: to sit here and just say maga and Trump's got 1321 01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:50,080 Speaker 1: everything under control, but we have not seen the follow 1322 01:20:50,120 --> 01:20:54,000 Speaker 1: through an immigration that is necessary for there to be 1323 01:20:54,080 --> 01:20:57,320 Speaker 1: any credible claim that Trump is actually getting this thing done. Okay, 1324 01:20:57,439 --> 01:20:59,479 Speaker 1: it hasn't happened yet, folks. You know what, and I 1325 01:20:59,600 --> 01:21:01,160 Speaker 1: know it. I don't think any of you do. I 1326 01:21:01,200 --> 01:21:03,960 Speaker 1: think I probably actually most of you are like yeah, 1327 01:21:03,960 --> 01:21:06,400 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, give Trump a break. They're trying 1328 01:21:06,439 --> 01:21:09,679 Speaker 1: to literally engage in a soft coup with the media 1329 01:21:09,760 --> 01:21:11,720 Speaker 1: and Muller and everything. And I get that. But I 1330 01:21:11,760 --> 01:21:13,479 Speaker 1: think a lot of your nodding your heads, like yeah, Buck, 1331 01:21:13,560 --> 01:21:15,400 Speaker 1: this is not what we were told we're gonna get. 1332 01:21:15,520 --> 01:21:19,680 Speaker 1: It's just not I can't sit you're in good conscience 1333 01:21:20,200 --> 01:21:24,200 Speaker 1: and you know, b s you for Buck Sexton. See 1334 01:21:24,240 --> 01:21:29,560 Speaker 1: what I did there. I can't do that. The administration 1335 01:21:29,720 --> 01:21:35,599 Speaker 1: has been talking about legalization for DOCCA, about expanding DOCCA, 1336 01:21:35,800 --> 01:21:40,559 Speaker 1: and to be fair, the Democrats have used the courts 1337 01:21:41,320 --> 01:21:47,000 Speaker 1: to completely expand even the executive decisions, the executive orders 1338 01:21:47,080 --> 01:21:51,760 Speaker 1: made by President Obama on behalf of illegals. So there's 1339 01:21:51,800 --> 01:21:54,000 Speaker 1: the the Democrats are playing a role in this surge, 1340 01:21:54,080 --> 01:21:56,760 Speaker 1: to make no mistake about it. But this is, you know, 1341 01:21:56,800 --> 01:21:58,400 Speaker 1: the way people look at the stock market as a 1342 01:21:58,439 --> 01:22:02,000 Speaker 1: barometer of confidence the economy, you know, and you can 1343 01:22:02,120 --> 01:22:04,360 Speaker 1: argue with that or not a lot of it's inflated 1344 01:22:04,360 --> 01:22:11,000 Speaker 1: asset prices, record low interest rates and artificially artificial interest rates. 1345 01:22:11,040 --> 01:22:12,800 Speaker 1: That's a whole other conversation. You can see. I get 1346 01:22:12,840 --> 01:22:15,880 Speaker 1: excited about these things. I'm a student to finance, uh 1347 01:22:16,040 --> 01:22:21,160 Speaker 1: these days. But we see the numbers at the border, 1348 01:22:21,280 --> 01:22:25,000 Speaker 1: and the numbers don't lie. You know. The illegal immigration 1349 01:22:25,120 --> 01:22:27,720 Speaker 1: is a scoreboard issue. What's the scoreboard say? You know, 1350 01:22:27,840 --> 01:22:30,800 Speaker 1: we can talk about how the refs, the refs weren't fair, 1351 01:22:30,920 --> 01:22:33,040 Speaker 1: the refs were paid off. What does the scoreboard say? 1352 01:22:33,160 --> 01:22:37,479 Speaker 1: And right now it says illegal immigration is surging under 1353 01:22:37,600 --> 01:22:41,599 Speaker 1: this president, with this administration. And this is a very 1354 01:22:42,120 --> 01:22:45,000 Speaker 1: very big deal because what it tells us is that 1355 01:22:45,120 --> 01:22:48,280 Speaker 1: the word among those among the coyote networks that are 1356 01:22:48,320 --> 01:22:52,640 Speaker 1: bringing people into the country illegally, among the cartels. You know, 1357 01:22:53,040 --> 01:22:56,679 Speaker 1: I don't think this doesn't also affect opioids, because remember, 1358 01:22:56,840 --> 01:22:59,519 Speaker 1: you have people who work in the distribution of those 1359 01:22:59,560 --> 01:23:03,120 Speaker 1: opio aids who are crossing the border and going into 1360 01:23:03,200 --> 01:23:07,360 Speaker 1: illegal immigrant communities. You also have the drugs themselves crossing 1361 01:23:07,400 --> 01:23:10,120 Speaker 1: the border with those workers to go into illegal immigrant 1362 01:23:10,120 --> 01:23:13,000 Speaker 1: communities to them be distributed to the rest of U 1363 01:23:13,200 --> 01:23:15,840 Speaker 1: to the rest of the country. So if they don't 1364 01:23:15,880 --> 01:23:17,720 Speaker 1: think that this wall is getting built, if they don't 1365 01:23:17,720 --> 01:23:21,000 Speaker 1: think the enforcement's gonna happen, guess what, the numbers go up. 1366 01:23:21,080 --> 01:23:23,599 Speaker 1: And that's where we are. I'm not saying that Trump 1367 01:23:23,680 --> 01:23:26,680 Speaker 1: has failed on this. I'm just saying he hasn't accomplished 1368 01:23:26,720 --> 01:23:30,120 Speaker 1: it yet, and the trend is in the wrong direction, 1369 01:23:30,800 --> 01:23:34,679 Speaker 1: and that's troubling. Okay, I'm I'm about results with Trump. 1370 01:23:34,720 --> 01:23:36,960 Speaker 1: Why do I not care about Stormy Daniels? Why do 1371 01:23:37,040 --> 01:23:39,559 Speaker 1: I not get all bogged down? And you know, oh, 1372 01:23:39,720 --> 01:23:42,519 Speaker 1: Trump said that it was this. Trump said potato. It's 1373 01:23:42,520 --> 01:23:46,000 Speaker 1: actually potato, because I believe in the agenda and I 1374 01:23:46,120 --> 01:23:52,120 Speaker 1: want the results and I can't Immigration was what separated 1375 01:23:52,200 --> 01:23:54,360 Speaker 1: him from everybody else. We cannot lose sight of this. 1376 01:23:55,600 --> 01:23:58,599 Speaker 1: What what's the difference between Trump and the other fifteen 1377 01:23:58,680 --> 01:24:00,840 Speaker 1: candidates or sixteen whatever it was that ran for the 1378 01:24:00,880 --> 01:24:05,320 Speaker 1: Republican nomination. Trump was willing to not just take on 1379 01:24:05,439 --> 01:24:10,200 Speaker 1: the issue of illegal immigration, to single handedly reframe the 1380 01:24:10,360 --> 01:24:14,320 Speaker 1: national discussion of immigration as a topic. That is what 1381 01:24:14,400 --> 01:24:17,200 Speaker 1: he accomplished. That's what he did. That's why he's president. 1382 01:24:17,720 --> 01:24:23,720 Speaker 1: Let's be honest. Okay, he's he's not president because, uh, 1383 01:24:24,800 --> 01:24:29,560 Speaker 1: you know, he's the best, most precise orator in the 1384 01:24:29,640 --> 01:24:32,080 Speaker 1: history of the world. Although he's incredibly entertaining, and I 1385 01:24:32,120 --> 01:24:35,760 Speaker 1: give him a lot of props for being amazing in 1386 01:24:35,880 --> 01:24:38,559 Speaker 1: live events, I'm I'm not trying to take anything away 1387 01:24:38,600 --> 01:24:42,080 Speaker 1: from the man in that regard, but you know, he 1388 01:24:42,200 --> 01:24:43,639 Speaker 1: said that he was going to get some things done. 1389 01:24:43,680 --> 01:24:48,479 Speaker 1: Immigration is the centerpiece of the agenda, and it needs 1390 01:24:48,760 --> 01:24:51,840 Speaker 1: redoubled attention right now in advance of the mid terms. 1391 01:24:52,520 --> 01:24:54,720 Speaker 1: I also want to talk to you about the increase 1392 01:24:54,840 --> 01:24:58,479 Speaker 1: in military air accidents that have fatality is over a 1393 01:24:58,560 --> 01:25:00,680 Speaker 1: hundred killed just in the last few years. There's a 1394 01:25:00,720 --> 01:25:02,880 Speaker 1: reason for this that ties right into the budget and 1395 01:25:02,960 --> 01:25:04,960 Speaker 1: what the Democrats in Obama did. I'll tell you about 1396 01:25:04,960 --> 01:25:08,120 Speaker 1: it when we come back. There are a few constants 1397 01:25:08,240 --> 01:25:10,519 Speaker 1: in my day to day. My friends, it's a crazy 1398 01:25:10,600 --> 01:25:12,559 Speaker 1: world we live in. I'm sure it's true for you too. 1399 01:25:12,680 --> 01:25:14,800 Speaker 1: I'm in the media business. Things get nuts. But you 1400 01:25:14,840 --> 01:25:17,600 Speaker 1: know what, I rely on coffee. I drink it a 1401 01:25:17,680 --> 01:25:20,240 Speaker 1: few times throughout the course of the day, and I 1402 01:25:20,439 --> 01:25:24,040 Speaker 1: only have one coffee brand, Black Rifle Coffee.

The Pentagon just earlier 1416 01:26:16,560 --> 01:26:22,280 Speaker 1: today identified nine pilots and crew killed earlier this week 1417 01:26:22,320 --> 01:26:26,799 Speaker 1: when an Air National Guard plane crashed near Savannah, Georgia. 1418 01:26:26,960 --> 01:26:31,000 Speaker 1: Now it seems there's been a slew of these deadly 1419 01:26:31,080 --> 01:26:36,240 Speaker 1: crashes involving our military, and I don't understand aviation. I'm 1420 01:26:36,240 --> 01:26:37,720 Speaker 1: not a guy with any expertise in it, but I 1421 01:26:37,800 --> 01:26:39,840 Speaker 1: want to look into this some more. So we brought 1422 01:26:39,920 --> 01:26:42,479 Speaker 1: somebody on here who can address these questions and tell 1423 01:26:42,520 --> 01:26:45,280 Speaker 1: us exactly what's going on here. We have Lieutenant Colonel 1424 01:26:45,360 --> 01:26:48,960 Speaker 1: Buzz Patterson on the line. Uh. Buzz is a retired 1425 01:26:49,040 --> 01:26:53,320 Speaker 1: military combat pilot, distinguished White House Military Aid and New 1426 01:26:53,400 --> 01:26:59,479 Speaker 1: York Times bestselling author of Dereliction of Duty and Reckless Disregard.

So. I'm seeing here 1429 01:27:05,120 --> 01:27:10,400 Speaker 1: that military crashes have increased by byt There's been a 1430 01:27:10,640 --> 01:27:15,080 Speaker 1: six month investigation Military time saying that this is really, 1431 01:27:15,720 --> 01:27:18,599 Speaker 1: uh an urgent issue. Can you tell me what's going 1432 01:27:18,680 --> 01:27:20,000 Speaker 1: on here? Because for a lot of us in the 1433 01:27:20,040 --> 01:27:22,200 Speaker 1: civilian world, we're like, wait, how is it that the 1434 01:27:22,280 --> 01:27:25,000 Speaker 1: military could be having such an increase in these crashes 1435 01:27:25,080 --> 01:27:28,560 Speaker 1: and we're losing uh service members here a hundred and 1436 01:27:28,640 --> 01:27:34,519 Speaker 1: thirty three killed from seventeen in in accidents alone. What's 1437 01:27:34,560 --> 01:27:39,000 Speaker 1: going on? Yeah, actually more that were killed more than twice. 1438 01:27:39,040 --> 01:27:41,760 Speaker 1: Has many killed buck in accidents, training accidents back here 1439 01:27:41,800 --> 01:27:43,680 Speaker 1: in the States, and we're killed in combat in a 1440 01:27:43,800 --> 01:27:48,439 Speaker 1: rock and and uh, Afghanistan and Syria. So here's my take. 1441 01:27:48,520 --> 01:27:53,200 Speaker 1: It's a systemic problem when you have a democratic presidency 1442 01:27:53,360 --> 01:27:55,760 Speaker 1: or administration like you have a Barack Obama, like I 1443 01:27:55,880 --> 01:27:59,519 Speaker 1: had under President Bill Clinton. They used their eight years 1444 01:27:59,680 --> 01:28:04,519 Speaker 1: to uh move money's allocate moneys out of the DoD budget, 1445 01:28:04,600 --> 01:28:07,000 Speaker 1: and that really impacts two things that are critical. It 1446 01:28:07,080 --> 01:28:11,080 Speaker 1: impacts training, training time, training hours, and it impacts maintenance 1447 01:28:11,640 --> 01:28:15,240 Speaker 1: or military readiness. Is what if someone commonly called the Pentagon. 1448 01:28:15,439 --> 01:28:20,120 Speaker 1: So when Barack Obama remove moneys are out reallocated them 1449 01:28:20,120 --> 01:28:22,200 Speaker 1: out of the do O D budget during those eight years, 1450 01:28:22,320 --> 01:28:24,599 Speaker 1: we lost a lot of training time and a lot 1451 01:28:24,760 --> 01:28:28,280 Speaker 1: of ability to replace fare parts and aircraft. So now 1452 01:28:28,360 --> 01:28:32,280 Speaker 1: that we're President Trump is inherited is a military that 1453 01:28:32,400 --> 01:28:35,400 Speaker 1: has been hollowed out and it takes years. Buck. It's 1454 01:28:35,400 --> 01:28:38,280 Speaker 1: a logistical tale. We call it takes years now to 1455 01:28:39,000 --> 01:28:42,320 Speaker 1: to restart the engine, to re get the training, the 1456 01:28:42,360 --> 01:28:45,080 Speaker 1: training time back up to speed, to re get parts 1457 01:28:45,120 --> 01:28:47,160 Speaker 1: back into the system for the aircraft. And I think, 1458 01:28:47,240 --> 01:28:50,520 Speaker 1: you know, we've had seven crashes this year alone involving 1459 01:28:50,560 --> 01:28:55,240 Speaker 1: military peacetime accidents since the two thousand and eighteen began. 1460 01:28:55,800 --> 01:28:58,040 Speaker 1: And I think it's a think problem that goes back 1461 01:28:58,120 --> 01:29:01,080 Speaker 1: to the previous administration. And it's the point, I think, 1462 01:29:01,120 --> 01:29:03,519 Speaker 1: which is a crisis, and it's gonna take us three 1463 01:29:03,640 --> 01:29:06,320 Speaker 1: or four years probably yet the minimum to get out 1464 01:29:06,320 --> 01:29:10,040 Speaker 1: of it. Is there any one particular airframe and any 1465 01:29:10,080 --> 01:29:13,800 Speaker 1: one aerial platform that is particularly at risk for this 1466 01:29:14,080 --> 01:29:18,960 Speaker 1: or is it pretty spread across uh different different aviation units. 1467 01:29:19,000 --> 01:29:21,280 Speaker 1: I mean, is there anything to that? I mean you're 1468 01:29:21,280 --> 01:29:24,840 Speaker 1: mentioning maintenance. Are there some vehicles, some some planes that 1469 01:29:24,880 --> 01:29:27,000 Speaker 1: are are worse off in this situation than others? You know, 1470 01:29:27,040 --> 01:29:31,719 Speaker 1: a rotary aircraft worse than fixed wing Well it appears 1471 01:29:31,800 --> 01:29:33,800 Speaker 1: so far, but just this year alone, we've had a 1472 01:29:33,840 --> 01:29:36,559 Speaker 1: little bit of everything. We've had. We've had helicopter crashes, 1473 01:29:36,600 --> 01:29:40,519 Speaker 1: we've had fighter jet crashes, we've had we've got to 1474 01:29:40,520 --> 01:29:44,000 Speaker 1: see one three crash yesterday, transport plane so I think 1475 01:29:44,040 --> 01:29:46,760 Speaker 1: it's pretty much a broad brushed thing that we're watching here. 1476 01:29:46,880 --> 01:29:50,400 Speaker 1: So you know, I want yesterday's crashed in the Savannah, 1477 01:29:50,439 --> 01:29:53,559 Speaker 1: Georgia to um a training issue. I think it might 1478 01:29:53,600 --> 01:29:55,560 Speaker 1: have been a maintenance issue. We can get into that 1479 01:29:55,600 --> 01:29:56,920 Speaker 1: a little bit later less you want to. But I 1480 01:29:57,000 --> 01:29:59,439 Speaker 1: think we're looking right now. It's just a specific problem 1481 01:29:59,479 --> 01:30:03,679 Speaker 1: across all weapons systems. We call them all aircraft types, 1482 01:30:04,040 --> 01:30:06,439 Speaker 1: all services. So it's not it's not just an air 1483 01:30:06,520 --> 01:30:09,120 Speaker 1: Force problem or a Navy problem, or a Marine Corps problem, 1484 01:30:09,240 --> 01:30:12,160 Speaker 1: or are we problem. It's a d D wide problem. 1485 01:30:12,560 --> 01:30:15,720 Speaker 1: It strikes me that this is a particularly insidious kind 1486 01:30:15,800 --> 01:30:19,960 Speaker 1: of of funding shortfall, because you know, if they try 1487 01:30:20,000 --> 01:30:22,599 Speaker 1: to cut military pay, I think we I think we'd 1488 01:30:22,640 --> 01:30:25,040 Speaker 1: hear about that, and and folks would at least be 1489 01:30:25,120 --> 01:30:28,200 Speaker 1: able to complain to their elected representatives. But things like 1490 01:30:28,360 --> 01:30:33,439 Speaker 1: training time, things like maintenance on on vehicles, particularly things 1491 01:30:33,479 --> 01:30:35,280 Speaker 1: that are things that are up in the sky flying, 1492 01:30:35,880 --> 01:30:38,280 Speaker 1: that doesn't necessarily get the same degree of attention. I 1493 01:30:38,479 --> 01:30:40,920 Speaker 1: could see how if someone was trying to trim the 1494 01:30:41,000 --> 01:30:43,280 Speaker 1: budget right at the federal government, if the White House, 1495 01:30:43,320 --> 01:30:46,640 Speaker 1: as you mentioned, under the Obama administration, was looking for cutbacks. 1496 01:30:47,160 --> 01:30:50,080 Speaker 1: Those cutbacks you don't see right away, but it seems 1497 01:30:50,200 --> 01:30:51,840 Speaker 1: from what you're telling me and what we're seeing based 1498 01:30:51,880 --> 01:30:54,400 Speaker 1: on these news reports, that you see them later on 1499 01:30:54,600 --> 01:30:57,120 Speaker 1: with losing men and women who were serving their country 1500 01:30:57,200 --> 01:30:58,960 Speaker 1: because they don't have the gear and they don't have 1501 01:30:59,040 --> 01:31:02,080 Speaker 1: the flight time that they That's exactly what it is, 1502 01:31:02,200 --> 01:31:05,200 Speaker 1: because what happens in particular, just just take one particular unit, 1503 01:31:05,280 --> 01:31:07,439 Speaker 1: to take a C one thirty unit or an F 1504 01:31:07,520 --> 01:31:10,400 Speaker 1: sixteen unit. What happens is you have a certain number 1505 01:31:10,439 --> 01:31:13,360 Speaker 1: of aircraft, and you have to maintain a certain number 1506 01:31:13,520 --> 01:31:16,400 Speaker 1: of fliable aircraft. So when you have other aircraft they're 1507 01:31:16,439 --> 01:31:19,400 Speaker 1: not flable, you cannibalize, You take parts out of those 1508 01:31:19,439 --> 01:31:21,360 Speaker 1: airplanes and boot them to the airplanes that are still 1509 01:31:21,680 --> 01:31:24,840 Speaker 1: capable of flying. Well, that is that that it trips 1510 01:31:24,880 --> 01:31:28,280 Speaker 1: pretty quickly. That that that you can never get that back. 1511 01:31:28,400 --> 01:31:31,439 Speaker 1: It's like you know, spinning your own credit card never 1512 01:31:31,520 --> 01:31:34,640 Speaker 1: paying back the balance. So uh, and that catches up 1513 01:31:34,680 --> 01:31:36,360 Speaker 1: with you over a certain amount of time. And we've 1514 01:31:36,400 --> 01:31:40,519 Speaker 1: been also, correspondingly, Buck, we have been deploying our assets 1515 01:31:40,560 --> 01:31:42,760 Speaker 1: that record numbers. You know, our guys and girls have 1516 01:31:42,800 --> 01:31:46,439 Speaker 1: been going overseas a record numbers. So you combine the 1517 01:31:46,800 --> 01:31:50,800 Speaker 1: actible deployment equation with the fact that they're getting less 1518 01:31:50,840 --> 01:31:53,840 Speaker 1: and less and less fair parts for what they're operating, 1519 01:31:54,240 --> 01:31:56,720 Speaker 1: and that's just doomed to fail. And we're seeing we're 1520 01:31:56,760 --> 01:32:00,160 Speaker 1: seeing that failure. One of the big pushes that the 1521 01:32:00,240 --> 01:32:04,400 Speaker 1: President had for the last omnibus bill that was signed 1522 01:32:04,920 --> 01:32:06,680 Speaker 1: had to do with and I think this is the 1523 01:32:06,760 --> 01:32:09,160 Speaker 1: one part of it that a lot of conservatives, a 1524 01:32:09,240 --> 01:32:11,680 Speaker 1: lot of the the GOP base, we're saying, Okay, well, 1525 01:32:11,760 --> 01:32:15,800 Speaker 1: at least we're getting that was more funding for the military. Now, 1526 01:32:15,880 --> 01:32:17,880 Speaker 1: some people see this and they say, well, you know, 1527 01:32:18,080 --> 01:32:20,680 Speaker 1: there's always more funding for the military, right, And there 1528 01:32:20,760 --> 01:32:22,720 Speaker 1: was a little bit of a cynicism that crept into 1529 01:32:22,760 --> 01:32:25,320 Speaker 1: the conversation. From what you're telling me, though, Buzz, it 1530 01:32:25,400 --> 01:32:28,880 Speaker 1: sounds like there was a shortfall and that the increase 1531 01:32:28,960 --> 01:32:31,320 Speaker 1: in the budget that the Republican Congress passed and that 1532 01:32:31,360 --> 01:32:34,120 Speaker 1: Trump signed here, although it's really a an omnibus bill, 1533 01:32:34,160 --> 01:32:37,360 Speaker 1: not really a budget, but that that actually was necessary 1534 01:32:37,400 --> 01:32:40,320 Speaker 1: to address these problems. So it wasn't just more spending 1535 01:32:40,360 --> 01:32:43,439 Speaker 1: for the military industrial complex, because that's what goes on 1536 01:32:43,760 --> 01:32:46,000 Speaker 1: that there was actually a need here is that fair 1537 01:32:46,080 --> 01:32:48,240 Speaker 1: to say, or is there some specifics I need to 1538 01:32:48,280 --> 01:32:50,800 Speaker 1: throw into this. Yeah, well that's just the beginning of 1539 01:32:50,880 --> 01:32:52,800 Speaker 1: the need. I think what he's doing right now is 1540 01:32:52,960 --> 01:32:56,040 Speaker 1: is trying to to uh to get back to where 1541 01:32:56,040 --> 01:32:57,880 Speaker 1: we should have been several years ago. So this is 1542 01:32:58,120 --> 01:33:00,160 Speaker 1: this is the first step in that. And I'll helly 1543 01:33:00,320 --> 01:33:04,559 Speaker 1: the exact year buck this started happening was under Obama 1544 01:33:04,600 --> 01:33:08,680 Speaker 1: when he took a significant cut to what we call 1545 01:33:08,760 --> 01:33:11,960 Speaker 1: O and M operations and maintenance so readiness, training and 1546 01:33:12,479 --> 01:33:16,040 Speaker 1: maintenance parts and took a significant cut. And again the 1547 01:33:16,200 --> 01:33:18,840 Speaker 1: lead time for that stuff. You can't replace all that 1548 01:33:18,920 --> 01:33:20,639 Speaker 1: in a year or two years or three years. That's 1549 01:33:20,680 --> 01:33:23,400 Speaker 1: got it. That's that's the time consuming four or five 1550 01:33:23,520 --> 01:33:25,559 Speaker 1: or six year out kind of thing. When you're when 1551 01:33:25,600 --> 01:33:28,639 Speaker 1: you're buying new weapons systems or your modifying weapons systems, 1552 01:33:28,960 --> 01:33:31,599 Speaker 1: or you're procuring new aircraft like the F thirty five, 1553 01:33:32,000 --> 01:33:35,120 Speaker 1: those take because of our system, our political process, those 1554 01:33:35,160 --> 01:33:38,719 Speaker 1: take almost a decade to get you know, um fielded 1555 01:33:38,840 --> 01:33:41,519 Speaker 1: in the air. So we're looking at the fact that 1556 01:33:41,920 --> 01:33:45,639 Speaker 1: Trump inherited this. His first bill was the ominous Bill. 1557 01:33:45,680 --> 01:33:47,800 Speaker 1: Were probably gonna take us three or four more years 1558 01:33:47,880 --> 01:33:50,120 Speaker 1: now to get to where we should have been when 1559 01:33:50,280 --> 01:33:54,680 Speaker 1: Bush left office, and buzz when Trump says that the 1560 01:33:55,160 --> 01:33:57,400 Speaker 1: military has been hollowed out and he's been this has 1561 01:33:57,439 --> 01:34:00,760 Speaker 1: been a refrain. Is it really is this the area? 1562 01:34:00,840 --> 01:34:02,599 Speaker 1: Is this really where it is the training, the readiness, 1563 01:34:02,640 --> 01:34:05,200 Speaker 1: the maintenance, or there are other big shortfalls, other big 1564 01:34:05,280 --> 01:34:07,759 Speaker 1: gaps that have been kind of hidden from the public 1565 01:34:08,040 --> 01:34:09,920 Speaker 1: at least perception of what's going on in the military 1566 01:34:09,960 --> 01:34:12,599 Speaker 1: that we should be aware of. Now these are these 1567 01:34:12,640 --> 01:34:14,080 Speaker 1: are the two. I think the are the most important, 1568 01:34:14,120 --> 01:34:16,720 Speaker 1: but because easy two, they're the easiest to hide in 1569 01:34:16,800 --> 01:34:19,920 Speaker 1: the d D budget process. You can hide training hours. 1570 01:34:20,000 --> 01:34:22,439 Speaker 1: You can you can decrease training hours and nobody pays attention. 1571 01:34:22,760 --> 01:34:26,759 Speaker 1: You can decrease the number of of spare parts for aircraft, 1572 01:34:26,960 --> 01:34:30,120 Speaker 1: nobody pays attention. If you go after hospitals or the 1573 01:34:30,200 --> 01:34:34,080 Speaker 1: v A or pay raises, people will pay attention to that. 1574 01:34:34,320 --> 01:34:37,320 Speaker 1: So what they've done is very very intelligent on their 1575 01:34:37,439 --> 01:34:40,599 Speaker 1: under beaffs are very damaging the very it's very insightful 1576 01:34:40,600 --> 01:34:42,680 Speaker 1: because what they're doing is they're going after things that 1577 01:34:42,760 --> 01:34:45,479 Speaker 1: nobody else will see that take years and years and 1578 01:34:45,560 --> 01:34:48,519 Speaker 1: years to catch up with. So it did take to 1579 01:34:48,640 --> 01:34:52,080 Speaker 1: this point this year. It took that long for the 1580 01:34:52,200 --> 01:34:55,599 Speaker 1: military to realize the effects of what happened five six 1581 01:34:55,680 --> 01:35:00,280 Speaker 1: set years ago. Lieutenant Colonel Boz Patterson's retired military combat isiot, 1582 01:35:00,360 --> 01:35:03,639 Speaker 1: author of the New York Times bestseller Dereliction of Duty 1583 01:35:03,680 --> 01:35:06,200 Speaker 1: and Reckless Disregard. Well, it's great to have you on. 1584 01:35:06,280 --> 01:35:07,840 Speaker 1: Please come back on the show soon and thank you 1585 01:35:07,880 --> 01:35:12,240 Speaker 1: for your service. Thank you very much. Anytime, Dame Roland 1586 01:35:12,280 --> 01:35:13,519 Speaker 1: to do a quick one here we come back. I'm 1587 01:35:13,560 --> 01:35:16,680 Speaker 1: gonna tell you about bicyclists and why I have a 1588 01:35:16,760 --> 01:35:18,880 Speaker 1: beef with them, as well as some other things. And 1589 01:35:18,920 --> 01:35:31,960 Speaker 1: then we got roll calls. Stay with me. He's holding 1590 01:35:32,000 --> 01:35:40,800 Speaker 1: the line for America buck sext in his back. Now. 1591 01:35:40,840 --> 01:35:44,920 Speaker 1: I don't want to be a hater, Okay, I'm just 1592 01:35:45,320 --> 01:35:47,479 Speaker 1: I'm just sharing with you some things that I think about. 1593 01:35:48,320 --> 01:35:52,920 Speaker 1: But what is it with people that ride bicycles in 1594 01:35:53,280 --> 01:35:59,600 Speaker 1: major American cities just being crazy? I'm sorry. I know 1595 01:35:59,680 --> 01:36:02,240 Speaker 1: there's a huge generalization, Like I've got family members that 1596 01:36:02,360 --> 01:36:03,880 Speaker 1: ride bikes in the city. I get it, right, But 1597 01:36:04,400 --> 01:36:06,080 Speaker 1: but when I say that, a lot of you are like, yeah, man, 1598 01:36:06,120 --> 01:36:09,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. I have lived in major cities my 1599 01:36:09,400 --> 01:36:14,280 Speaker 1: whole life. And I have never come close to meeting 1600 01:36:14,360 --> 01:36:17,240 Speaker 1: my creator because of knock on wood, but because of 1601 01:36:17,520 --> 01:36:23,160 Speaker 1: a vehicle. But I have. I have been inches away 1602 01:36:23,320 --> 01:36:26,400 Speaker 1: from annihilation because of some guy who's like common through 1603 01:36:26,479 --> 01:36:28,920 Speaker 1: common through on a bicycle or you know, people on 1604 01:36:29,040 --> 01:36:33,360 Speaker 1: bicycles act like total maniacs. It's like, I'm sorry, I 1605 01:36:33,720 --> 01:36:36,080 Speaker 1: didn't know that I was one ft into your bike lane. 1606 01:36:36,240 --> 01:36:38,519 Speaker 1: But you also shouldn't be going forty miles an hour 1607 01:36:38,640 --> 01:36:42,080 Speaker 1: through midtown Manhattan, or in the case of today, in 1608 01:36:42,280 --> 01:36:46,080 Speaker 1: downtown d C. There's people everywhere, right just because you're 1609 01:36:46,120 --> 01:36:48,439 Speaker 1: on a little thing that you're peddling fast, it doesn't 1610 01:36:48,479 --> 01:36:50,920 Speaker 1: mean that you're going thirty five and no one minds 1611 01:36:51,000 --> 01:36:55,559 Speaker 1: and no one cares. It's just madness makes me very 1612 01:36:56,080 --> 01:36:58,800 Speaker 1: makes me very frustrated. It really really does. Um. I 1613 01:36:58,960 --> 01:37:03,320 Speaker 1: find that there's just something about that. There's like an 1614 01:37:03,360 --> 01:37:06,000 Speaker 1: attitude that goes with it too. There's a there's an 1615 01:37:06,160 --> 01:37:10,400 Speaker 1: attitude about riding on bikes.

And 1617 01:37:13,720 --> 01:37:16,880 Speaker 1: everyone who's in a car, you're like joying the world 1618 01:37:17,040 --> 01:37:20,720 Speaker 1: man with your green gas. You're greenhouse gas. You're the 1619 01:37:20,840 --> 01:37:24,320 Speaker 1: gases are so bad they're green whatever. Man, you know, 1620 01:37:24,479 --> 01:37:29,080 Speaker 1: there's a lot of that going on. Uh So I'm 1621 01:37:29,120 --> 01:37:31,560 Speaker 1: just I don't know what it is. Just today I 1622 01:37:32,560 --> 01:37:35,519 Speaker 1: almost got completely wiped out by a bicycle on my 1623 01:37:35,560 --> 01:37:37,680 Speaker 1: way to the office, and I was like, dude, you 1624 01:37:37,760 --> 01:37:41,280 Speaker 1: know you know what I'm saying, Like, you don't. I 1625 01:37:41,680 --> 01:37:43,240 Speaker 1: don't think they're I don't think you're putting out a 1626 01:37:43,280 --> 01:37:45,080 Speaker 1: fire on the other side of town. You know, you 1627 01:37:45,160 --> 01:37:47,599 Speaker 1: could go like fifteen miles an hour like a normal person, 1628 01:37:47,960 --> 01:37:50,320 Speaker 1: because when you're growing twenty five on a bike and 1629 01:37:50,400 --> 01:37:52,840 Speaker 1: I know, I'm probably my speeds are probably I'm gonna 1630 01:37:52,840 --> 01:37:55,400 Speaker 1: get emails. Book, he wasn't going twenty five. First of all, 1631 01:37:55,479 --> 01:37:58,160 Speaker 1: some of those guys actually do go twenty miles an hour. 1632 01:37:59,240 --> 01:38:03,160 Speaker 1: And you know, you get these guys who are messengers, 1633 01:38:03,800 --> 01:38:06,320 Speaker 1: and for whatever reason, the guys would take out food. 1634 01:38:06,360 --> 01:38:09,400 Speaker 1: It's different because they can't spoil the food, right, so 1635 01:38:09,560 --> 01:38:12,240 Speaker 1: they can't go super fast and have you know, pizza 1636 01:38:12,400 --> 01:38:14,679 Speaker 1: or lomain or whatever like flying all over the place. 1637 01:38:15,280 --> 01:38:19,040 Speaker 1: But the messengers, it's like they think that they're terminators 1638 01:38:19,120 --> 01:38:21,479 Speaker 1: with two wheels and anyone who gets in the way 1639 01:38:21,600 --> 01:38:24,439 Speaker 1: must be crushed. They need, they need to relax a 1640 01:38:24,479 --> 01:38:28,080 Speaker 1: little bit. So I I'm just saying random story I 1641 01:38:28,120 --> 01:38:31,200 Speaker 1: wanted to share with you. This uh this, this just 1642 01:38:31,320 --> 01:38:36,160 Speaker 1: came up today. A man was arrested in Scotland over 1643 01:38:36,200 --> 01:38:42,640 Speaker 1: the weekend because he was carrying a potato peeler in 1644 01:38:42,760 --> 01:38:47,880 Speaker 1: a public place without a reasonable excuse, according to Breitbart. 1645 01:38:48,360 --> 01:38:50,720 Speaker 1: And now, I mean, this is how crazy the the 1646 01:38:50,880 --> 01:38:55,000 Speaker 1: anti sharp things mindset has become. Because there's been a 1647 01:38:55,080 --> 01:38:58,439 Speaker 1: big surge in stabbings and murders in the UK. So 1648 01:38:58,560 --> 01:39:00,400 Speaker 1: now they're looking to do something about it. What are 1649 01:39:00,400 --> 01:39:03,320 Speaker 1: they gonna do? Banned things? Because that's somehow gonna work. 1650 01:39:03,720 --> 01:39:06,080 Speaker 1: But can you imagine being this guy? It's like, what 1651 01:39:06,120 --> 01:39:08,840 Speaker 1: are you doing that far? You're taking the potato pure? 1652 01:39:09,080 --> 01:39:12,760 Speaker 1: Are you nuts? And the answer is yes, you know 1653 01:39:13,520 --> 01:39:16,639 Speaker 1: you're you're taking away You're taking away guy's potato peeler 1654 01:39:16,680 --> 01:39:20,120 Speaker 1: on top of that, taking away his freedom. Maybe if 1655 01:39:20,800 --> 01:39:23,000 Speaker 1: if you can get robbed by somebody who's carrying a 1656 01:39:23,040 --> 01:39:27,000 Speaker 1: potato peeler, I'm not sure that there's much that can 1657 01:39:27,040 --> 01:39:30,200 Speaker 1: be done to save you. I'm not sure that that 1658 01:39:30,320 --> 01:39:34,920 Speaker 1: we're gonna be able to um pass laws that save you. 1659 01:39:35,320 --> 01:39:36,840 Speaker 1: Becauld you just imagine, like, what am I gonna do 1660 01:39:37,000 --> 01:39:39,439 Speaker 1: that potato peeler. I'm gonna shave her ready with it 1661 01:39:39,479 --> 01:39:42,120 Speaker 1: a lot. It doesn't make any sense right when you 1662 01:39:42,160 --> 01:39:44,160 Speaker 1: start to think about this. But then again, for a 1663 01:39:44,240 --> 01:39:46,799 Speaker 1: long time, the t s A was taking toneenail clippers. 1664 01:39:47,439 --> 01:39:50,120 Speaker 1: Could you could you imagine that one? Like everybody freeze, 1665 01:39:50,360 --> 01:39:55,439 Speaker 1: I have a toe nail clipper, take two steps in 1666 01:39:55,479 --> 01:39:59,920 Speaker 1: the wrong direction and the cuticle gets it um by. 1667 01:40:00,320 --> 01:40:01,840 Speaker 1: You know you're gonna see more of this in the UK. 1668 01:40:02,640 --> 01:40:06,200 Speaker 1: It's crazy. You're gonna see more of this where they 1669 01:40:06,280 --> 01:40:10,280 Speaker 1: start taking people's knives and try see it's deterrens. It's 1670 01:40:10,320 --> 01:40:15,320 Speaker 1: always deterrens prosecution. And give it some time. Here's my prediction, 1671 01:40:15,360 --> 01:40:17,720 Speaker 1: which right now I know is not a consensus thing. 1672 01:40:18,320 --> 01:40:21,320 Speaker 1: But give it some time and we you will see 1673 01:40:22,320 --> 01:40:25,840 Speaker 1: that there will be people, um, there will be people 1674 01:40:26,000 --> 01:40:30,400 Speaker 1: in this country who are saying, look what they did 1675 01:40:30,520 --> 01:40:34,000 Speaker 1: in the UK. They're banning knives and it's working so well. 1676 01:40:34,200 --> 01:40:36,639 Speaker 1: And he'll be like, no, it doesn't work, dude. Why 1677 01:40:36,680 --> 01:40:39,639 Speaker 1: do you say these great Why are you calling me dude, sir? 1678 01:40:40,880 --> 01:40:44,519 Speaker 1: Because I just call people dude. Well, I object now 1679 01:40:44,600 --> 01:40:46,400 Speaker 1: it sounds like I'm having a breakdown on radio. But 1680 01:40:46,600 --> 01:40:49,719 Speaker 1: you get what I'm saying. I think that you're gonna 1681 01:40:49,760 --> 01:40:53,800 Speaker 1: see this expand in the UK, and in just a 1682 01:40:53,880 --> 01:40:56,479 Speaker 1: matter of time it will in fact be here. Still 1683 01:40:56,600 --> 01:40:59,800 Speaker 1: there'll be a sentiment state side. It's already there's a 1684 01:40:59,800 --> 01:41:03,599 Speaker 1: little like little bits of it in Um, there's little 1685 01:41:03,640 --> 01:41:07,320 Speaker 1: bits of it in New York and Boston.

Let's go look at the squirrels and the 1778 01:46:17,800 --> 01:46:23,200 Speaker 1: pigeons squirrel. So maybe it is about membership and money. 1779 01:46:23,200 --> 01:46:24,800 Speaker 1: And if that's the case, then that's the case. But 1780 01:46:25,160 --> 01:46:26,720 Speaker 1: I I do think there's and this is why I 1781 01:46:26,760 --> 01:46:29,160 Speaker 1: try to tie it into some other things. I think 1782 01:46:29,200 --> 01:46:34,200 Speaker 1: there's a larger issue at work here about how boys 1783 01:46:34,240 --> 01:46:37,800 Speaker 1: are not allowed separate spaces, and there's I do think 1784 01:46:37,840 --> 01:46:41,640 Speaker 1: there's a push to make it really hard to have 1785 01:46:41,840 --> 01:46:47,519 Speaker 1: any single sex activities for for young people now. So 1786 01:46:47,680 --> 01:46:50,680 Speaker 1: there's that. But hey, if Dan, maybe a correct here 1787 01:46:51,240 --> 01:46:55,240 Speaker 1: about the the overall the you know, the the overall 1788 01:46:55,400 --> 01:46:59,120 Speaker 1: reason for this follow the money is is almost you know, 1789 01:46:59,240 --> 01:47:01,120 Speaker 1: it's almost always the correct plan if you want to 1790 01:47:01,120 --> 01:47:03,680 Speaker 1: find out what's going on. So thank you very much 1791 01:47:03,760 --> 01:47:05,840 Speaker 1: Dan for your note. And hey, if I if if 1792 01:47:05,880 --> 01:47:07,920 Speaker 1: someone's got me on something, if they if I'm not 1793 01:47:08,040 --> 01:47:12,160 Speaker 1: getting it getting it completely correct, well then let me know. 1794 01:47:12,600 --> 01:47:13,880 Speaker 1: Um I want to I want to do it right 1795 01:47:13,920 --> 01:47:16,439 Speaker 1: here in the Hut always Amy next up, Hey, Buck 1796 01:47:16,560 --> 01:47:21,040 Speaker 1: quick question. As per the Caputo conversation on Tucker Carlson's 1797 01:47:21,040 --> 01:47:24,120 Speaker 1: show last night, Caputo is saying that the process is 1798 01:47:24,160 --> 01:47:27,599 Speaker 1: the punishment. The progressive establishment is going after anyone they 1799 01:47:27,640 --> 01:47:31,080 Speaker 1: can destroy. Um. I think this is why Trump has 1800 01:47:31,120 --> 01:47:35,200 Speaker 1: advisors constantly jumping ship. Is this also why Jeff Sessions 1801 01:47:35,240 --> 01:47:37,960 Speaker 1: refuses to do his job because he wants to destroy 1802 01:47:38,080 --> 01:47:41,519 Speaker 1: any outsiders? Amy? You know, I like, I like a 1803 01:47:41,640 --> 01:47:43,760 Speaker 1: g Jeff Um. We've had him here on the show 1804 01:47:43,800 --> 01:47:45,760 Speaker 1: a few times. I think he's a good man who's 1805 01:47:45,840 --> 01:47:48,880 Speaker 1: who's doing the best he can. I do so. I 1806 01:47:48,960 --> 01:47:51,800 Speaker 1: do also think, however, that in the case of the 1807 01:47:51,920 --> 01:47:58,920 Speaker 1: Russia collusion debacle and and the whole Special Counsel catastrophe, 1808 01:47:59,640 --> 01:48:01,320 Speaker 1: that he used the guy in the in the bar 1809 01:48:01,640 --> 01:48:03,880 Speaker 1: who I like the bar fight analogy because I really 1810 01:48:03,920 --> 01:48:05,800 Speaker 1: do think we're in the midst of a political bar fight. 1811 01:48:05,840 --> 01:48:07,680 Speaker 1: I know I'm be laboring the analogy, but I think 1812 01:48:07,760 --> 01:48:10,400 Speaker 1: that's a pretty good way to describe this. Uh, that 1813 01:48:10,720 --> 01:48:15,360 Speaker 1: the Sessions is the guy who is like, hey, like everybody, 1814 01:48:15,439 --> 01:48:17,400 Speaker 1: let's let's calm down. And he walks outside, He's like, 1815 01:48:17,439 --> 01:48:20,120 Speaker 1: why don't we all get some fresh air? And inside 1816 01:48:20,200 --> 01:48:22,280 Speaker 1: like his buddies are getting chairs thrown out their heads. 1817 01:48:22,320 --> 01:48:24,040 Speaker 1: You know what I mean. It's not that he's on 1818 01:48:24,160 --> 01:48:28,800 Speaker 1: the other side. He's just I think a little too gentlemanly. 1819 01:48:28,920 --> 01:48:30,360 Speaker 1: Dare I say a little too much of a boy 1820 01:48:30,439 --> 01:48:33,559 Speaker 1: scout for our current moment where it is an all 1821 01:48:33,720 --> 01:48:38,479 Speaker 1: hands on deck brawl, right, it is a street fight, 1822 01:48:38,680 --> 01:48:41,120 Speaker 1: it is trench warfare. All those analogies I think are 1823 01:48:41,160 --> 01:48:45,960 Speaker 1: really useful to describe this political moment. So and as 1824 01:48:46,000 --> 01:48:47,680 Speaker 1: to yeah, the process of the punishment, you know, I 1825 01:48:47,720 --> 01:48:49,760 Speaker 1: say it all the time. And my one of the 1826 01:48:49,840 --> 01:48:51,479 Speaker 1: things that I bring to the show that I think 1827 01:48:51,600 --> 01:48:55,920 Speaker 1: is somewhat unique is I understand bureaucracies because I worked 1828 01:48:55,960 --> 01:48:58,960 Speaker 1: in a massive bureaucracy in the past, the federal bureaucracy, 1829 01:48:59,600 --> 01:49:02,679 Speaker 1: and and I you just get a sense of those 1830 01:49:03,120 --> 01:49:07,559 Speaker 1: of the politics and how rules and laws are enforced 1831 01:49:07,640 --> 01:49:10,600 Speaker 1: within them, and it really gives me an idea of 1832 01:49:10,800 --> 01:49:13,880 Speaker 1: one and how the deep state functions, but also how 1833 01:49:14,560 --> 01:49:20,000 Speaker 1: the political entities use these and and weaponize these structures 1834 01:49:20,560 --> 01:49:25,479 Speaker 1: against their political opponents. So I've seen that up close 1835 01:49:25,520 --> 01:49:28,120 Speaker 1: and personal and in ways that I think hopefully influence 1836 01:49:28,600 --> 01:49:32,760 Speaker 1: my analysis here in a good way. Sarah, next up here, 1837 01:49:32,960 --> 01:49:35,959 Speaker 1: Hey Buck, I wanted to respond to the Kanye discussion 1838 01:49:36,000 --> 01:49:39,240 Speaker 1: from Wednesday's show. The way I took his comments about 1839 01:49:39,280 --> 01:49:41,719 Speaker 1: the choosing slavery thing is that a lot of folks 1840 01:49:41,800 --> 01:49:45,280 Speaker 1: still feel very angry about slavery and choose to live 1841 01:49:45,360 --> 01:49:48,799 Speaker 1: in that frame of mind like they're still feeling wronged 1842 01:49:48,880 --> 01:49:51,519 Speaker 1: personally for something they were not a part of. That's 1843 01:49:51,560 --> 01:49:54,599 Speaker 1: what I took out of that statement. Yes it happened 1844 01:49:54,600 --> 01:49:57,479 Speaker 1: and it was horrible, but can we mourn the past 1845 01:49:57,560 --> 01:50:01,519 Speaker 1: without staying trapped in it? Does that make ends, well, Sarah, 1846 01:50:02,000 --> 01:50:04,920 Speaker 1: It certainly is makes sense from the perspective of I 1847 01:50:05,200 --> 01:50:08,599 Speaker 1: understand I think what you're saying, but I don't think 1848 01:50:08,680 --> 01:50:12,360 Speaker 1: I could say that. I think I know what Kanye 1849 01:50:12,600 --> 01:50:14,880 Speaker 1: was saying. I know this is I'm getting a little 1850 01:50:15,479 --> 01:50:19,680 Speaker 1: wrapped around the axle here. I'm not really clear. And 1851 01:50:19,720 --> 01:50:22,000 Speaker 1: I've heard people say, oh, I know what Kanye was saying, 1852 01:50:22,040 --> 01:50:24,479 Speaker 1: and then they start to say it and I say, no, 1853 01:50:25,400 --> 01:50:28,240 Speaker 1: you know, you may be brilliant on other things, but 1854 01:50:28,400 --> 01:50:32,439 Speaker 1: your Kanye analysis, I think is a little bit of 1855 01:50:32,520 --> 01:50:36,719 Speaker 1: a stretch. So and I'm also I find this Kanye 1856 01:50:36,840 --> 01:50:39,560 Speaker 1: thing interesting to talk about. But I've I I do 1857 01:50:39,720 --> 01:50:42,479 Speaker 1: put out the caution here that you know, he's gonna 1858 01:50:42,520 --> 01:50:45,200 Speaker 1: be like, socialized medicine is the greatest thing ever, and 1859 01:50:45,240 --> 01:50:49,640 Speaker 1: everyone's gonna be like, uh, you know, he's not a conservative, 1860 01:50:49,840 --> 01:50:55,080 Speaker 1: so don't don't forget that one. Um, Jeremy writes a 1861 01:50:55,280 --> 01:50:58,040 Speaker 1: buck laughing out loud at your fourth grade friend Andrew's 1862 01:50:58,080 --> 01:51:02,320 Speaker 1: description of the birds and the bees. Thank you. I 1863 01:51:02,360 --> 01:51:04,160 Speaker 1: can actually tell you the guys here in the office 1864 01:51:04,200 --> 01:51:07,679 Speaker 1: heard me telling that, heard me on air, um telling 1865 01:51:07,760 --> 01:51:09,160 Speaker 1: that one I left, I left the door open, and 1866 01:51:09,200 --> 01:51:12,160 Speaker 1: sell them came by and they particularly like that. Yeah, 1867 01:51:12,200 --> 01:51:14,120 Speaker 1: it's one of the one of the guys just takes 1868 01:51:14,160 --> 01:51:17,040 Speaker 1: his private just smashes them into a woman a baby 1869 01:51:17,160 --> 01:51:20,800 Speaker 1: comes out. His name was Andrew. He was a year 1870 01:51:20,840 --> 01:51:23,120 Speaker 1: older than me, and that was the first time and 1871 01:51:23,160 --> 01:51:24,560 Speaker 1: I was I was in the third grade. He was 1872 01:51:24,600 --> 01:51:27,240 Speaker 1: in the fourth grade, and and we were walking to 1873 01:51:27,439 --> 01:51:30,400 Speaker 1: our sports, you know, we had afternoon sports and we're 1874 01:51:30,400 --> 01:51:32,720 Speaker 1: walking to sports and he said that. Remember going like, 1875 01:51:32,760 --> 01:51:35,240 Speaker 1: oh gosh, is that really how babies are made? And 1876 01:51:35,280 --> 01:51:37,280 Speaker 1: I'm just like trying to you know, I didn't really 1877 01:51:37,400 --> 01:51:42,960 Speaker 1: understand the whole, you know, lock and key aspect of it. 1878 01:51:43,040 --> 01:51:46,439 Speaker 1: I just heard, you know, smashes his privates like that 1879 01:51:46,560 --> 01:51:51,479 Speaker 1: doesn't sound fun. But anyway, I learned some things. Jeremy 1880 01:51:51,479 --> 01:51:54,000 Speaker 1: also writes there's a great organization like the Boy Scouts 1881 01:51:54,040 --> 01:51:57,720 Speaker 1: that is specifically for girls. The Girl Scouts.
