Appreciate you 4 00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:14,800 Speaker 1: joining rolling with us. A lot of news coming down today. 5 00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:19,720 Speaker 1: We have a Supreme Court decision five four for the 6 00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:24,439 Speaker 1: wrong side. Unfortunately on the remain in Mexico policy. The 7 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:30,040 Speaker 1: Biden administration is able to end it. We will get 8 00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 1: into the details of it. There's some intricate legal analysis 9 00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:40,600 Speaker 1: of the Immigration to Nationality Act and the Administrative Procedures Act, 10 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:42,000 Speaker 1: all that stuff. We'll give you a little bit of that, 11 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:44,800 Speaker 1: but bottom line is Biden wants to let illegals into 12 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 1: the country and his DHS is doing it and they're 13 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 1: just going with it. So we'll get into more of that. 14 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:53,519 Speaker 1: They could stop this, and they are choosing to not 15 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 1: stop this, and the Supreme Court is now by five 16 00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:00,120 Speaker 1: four decision, not going to stand in their way. We 17 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 1: also going to be joined later on the program by 18 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 1: the Attorney General of the State of Arizona, A. G. Bernovich, 19 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,960 Speaker 1: and also third hour of the program, the Governor of 20 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: South Dakota, Christy Nome. A lot going on at her state. 21 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 1: I want to talk to her about some of the 22 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 1: national political stories as well. Now there's so much we 23 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 1: oh and of course Biden saying he wants to get 24 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 1: rid of the filibuster, and they're gonna the system doesn't 25 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 1: work for them, and all of a sudden, the Libs 26 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 1: want to overthrow the system or overturn the system or whatever. 27 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:33,960 Speaker 1: We'll see where that's going. Clay's got updates from Cinema 28 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 1: and Mansion that may put a bit of a damper 29 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 1: on the La Revolution, the switch in our government in 30 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 1: the Senate, and all the other things they want to do. 31 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 1: So we'll get into all of this here shortly. But 32 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: but first, I was really struck last night by the 33 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 1: headlines about what happened on the Upper east Side. As 34 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: you know, I'm here in New York City. I live 35 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 1: in Midtown Manhattan. I grew up on the East Side, 36 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: and the Upper east Side is the probably the safest neighborhood. 37 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 1: It's also generally an expensive neighborhood. Not all of it 38 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 1: is hyper expensive, but a lot of it is. But 39 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 1: it's a place you don't see shootings. It's a place 40 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 1: you don't really see much in the way of violent 41 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 1: crime even when the city is having a bad time 42 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 1: of it. And there was a mother with her baby, 43 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 1: walking the baby and a stroller and she was going 44 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: The mother was going for a walk and a gunman 45 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:34,079 Speaker 1: in a hooded sweatshirt came up behind her and executed 46 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,399 Speaker 1: her with a gunshot wound to the back of the head. 47 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 1: Ninety street in Lexington Avenue for those of you who 48 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 1: know New York City, and this immediately sent a shockway 49 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 1: through the city because this is exactly the kind of 50 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 1: story that gets everyone's attention as this is how far 51 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 1: the security situation, law and order has deteriorated that in 52 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 1: a neighborhood like the Upper East Side of New York, 53 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: where you're generally not seeing as much violent crime, you 54 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 1: have an execution in a busy intersection of a mother 55 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,639 Speaker 1: with a baby. Clay Eric Adams came out last night. 56 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 1: He actually went to the scene of the shooting right away, 57 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:15,359 Speaker 1: so the mayor knew that this was a moment that 58 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 1: was going to really obviously upset a lot of people, 59 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 1: upset everyone in the city of New York and around 60 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: the country. But also he know that they knew that 61 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 1: there were political ramifications from this kind of an incident. 62 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 1: And here's my basic and we could go through it. 63 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 1: My basic theory, Clay is we all know what would 64 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: actually bring the crime levels down. We actually in New 65 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: York City ran the experiment in the nineties. We know 66 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: what would be done. Democrats, for ideological reasons, refused to 67 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 1: do it. They just refused to do it. They focus 68 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: on guns. The focus was not singularly on guns when 69 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 1: they turned New York around in nineteen starting in nineteen ninety, 70 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: the year two thousand, this is where we are now, 71 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: and this is happening in cities all over the country. 72 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: New York from correct me if I'm wrong, Buck around 73 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: two thousand murders a year, all the way down to 74 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: three hundred. Giuliani when he took over you or a kid, 75 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 1: it was around two thousand murders. New York was not 76 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: a safe place to be. And I think the number 77 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 1: fell all the way to like three hundred, under three hundred. 78 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 1: It was two thousand, two hundred and forty five and 79 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 1: nineteen ninety and got to two hundred and ninety two 80 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 1: and twenty seventeen. Okay, So an unbelievable success story in 81 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 1: terms of making the streets safer for everyone. These are 82 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 1: the kinds of stories that crystallize fear for many people 83 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: because if someone has killed, most of most deaths, most murders, 84 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 1: as many of you know, almost all of you know, 85 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 1: probably involve people that you know. That is, random acts 86 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: of violence are rare. What has become very commonplace bucks 87 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:55,280 Speaker 1: Suddenly in New York City is guys on the subway 88 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: going to work and somebody shoots him and he dies, 89 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 1: and he did didn't know that guy at all. This 90 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 1: is the Hispanic guy who worked at Goldman Sacks. That 91 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 1: was a viral story. Asian woman gets shoved directly in 92 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: front of a subway car as she's standing waiting to 93 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 1: go I think to yoga class one morning in New 94 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:23,480 Speaker 1: York City as well. Now mom out pushing her baby 95 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: and a stroller gets executed. The details of who this 96 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: guy was and what exactly might have been behind it, 97 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 1: we still don't know. But if this was a truly 98 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 1: random act of violence, which buck, it appears at least 99 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 1: early on that it was a random act of violence, 100 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 1: everyone immediately thinks for all three of those stories that 101 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:50,359 Speaker 1: could have been me. It's different when you're involved in 102 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 1: a criminal underworld drug trade. It's different when someone that 103 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 1: you know takes a violent act against you, but truly 104 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:06,039 Speaker 1: random acts of violence crystallize the killing fields that many 105 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 1: of the cities and states in our country have suddenly 106 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: become in the wake of the George Floyd protest and 107 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 1: the BLM riots. Let's be honest, that's what the absolutely 108 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 1: critical point. Why did this all happen? Why is the 109 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 1: murder rate in New York City up sixty percent in 110 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 1: four years, especially given that the trend was down, down, 111 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: down for over twenty years decades, all of a sudden, 112 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,919 Speaker 1: it's up sixty percent in less than four years. The 113 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,119 Speaker 1: murder rate in twenty twenty one, there were four hundred 114 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,039 Speaker 1: and eighty eight murders here, and other other cities like 115 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:42,479 Speaker 1: Baltimore that are much smaller with considerably higher murder rates. 116 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: Saint louis considerably higher, right, But New York because it's 117 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 1: the biggest city and honestly the biggest crime turnaround miracle 118 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:54,279 Speaker 1: is for people that want to look at the data, 119 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: who want to look at what happened, a very good 120 00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: indicator of what's gone on here, and it is because 121 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 1: of BOM, the George Floyd riots, the Progressive Prosecutor movement 122 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: and the Democrat Party embracing this ideology up. We just 123 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 1: have to enforce fewer criminal laws. The criminal justice system 124 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:20,119 Speaker 1: is racist. This is the mainstream Democrat belief and talking point. 125 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: And therefore the way to deal with the racom that 126 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 1: racism that they assess is in the system is to 127 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 1: just enforce fewer criminal laws, send people to prison for 128 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 1: less time, let people out for you know, earlier, all 129 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: of it. And when you look at New York, it 130 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 1: is just step by step, it's like Deblasio and now Adams, 131 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 1: although Adams is beginning to turn it around, was running 132 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: a how do I ruin this city program? They got 133 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 1: rid of the Plane Closed police Unit Clay back in 134 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 1: twenty fifteen. Why well, I remember this. June fifteen, twenty twenty, 135 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 1: the New York Police Commissioner announced on Monday he was 136 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 1: disbanding the police department Anti crime unit Plane closed team 137 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 1: that target violent crime and have been involved in some 138 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,119 Speaker 1: of the city's most notorious police shootings. You know the 139 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 1: notorious police shooting is they was point to Amadu Diallo, 140 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 1: which was a bad incident. It was a mistake, but 141 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 1: they thought he had that was in nineteen ninety nine. Yeah, 142 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: I remember that story. Whenever the journals right about this, 143 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 1: it's well the plane closed unit. This is in twenty twenty, 144 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 1: plane closed unit. Man, they were in some bad shoots 145 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: like nineteen ninety nine. These people, the journals, the Democrats, 146 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 1: the police commissioner under the Deblasi administration. And now what 147 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: we see with the progressive prosecutor Bragg and da I 148 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 1: mean and Mayor Adams. They're reckless and they're wrong, and 149 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 1: they just don't want to stop. So he's fix he's 150 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 1: fixating on guns. Clay, the number of gunner they've I've 151 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 1: seen estimates that they're over a million guns in circulation 152 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 1: New York City. They take about ten thousand guns a 153 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 1: year off the streets. Yeah. Oh, but if they focus 154 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 1: on the guns, they're really going to solve the problem. 155 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 1: It's idiocy. It's like there's a lack of ability to 156 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: do the basic math. They also did away with stop, 157 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: question and frisk, as you well know, which was also 158 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 1: incredibly important in terms of making people think, hey, maybe 159 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,560 Speaker 1: I shouldn't have a gun on me when I'm walking 160 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: around in a high crime area because the police can 161 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:25,320 Speaker 1: stop and talk to me and then judge me based 162 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 1: on my reaction to some questions whether or not I 163 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 1: might be carrying a gun, and unfortunately, Buck, the overwhelming 164 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 1: number of the victims of these massive increases in murders 165 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 1: have been black, right, And if black lives truly matter, 166 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 1: where does BLM show up When all of these deaths 167 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 1: are occurring in inner cities. They're non existent. They are 168 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:55,079 Speaker 1: not in any way involved. They show up if a 169 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 1: white police officer is involved in any sort of allegations 170 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 1: of impropriet But when you have killing fields in our 171 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:08,079 Speaker 1: inner cities and overwhelmingly young kids are the victims, they 172 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:11,319 Speaker 1: don't say a word. And the media that shows up 173 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,079 Speaker 1: to cover all these BLM protests and talks about how 174 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 1: awful police are, they don't say a word either. They 175 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 1: barely even mention these deaths. And it takes these sort 176 00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 1: of viral, anecdotal, out of nowhere, random acts of violence 177 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 1: to even cut through and personify what's going on in 178 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 1: our cities right now. They got rid of stop, question 179 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:34,079 Speaker 1: and frisk a judge sheer just decided that it was unconstitutional. 180 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:39,199 Speaker 1: They got rid of the playing clothes unit. They changed 181 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 1: as many police procedures as they could, and a hyper 182 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 1: focus on restraint holds and all these things to make 183 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 1: the cops thing, well, if I have to wrestle somebody 184 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:49,440 Speaker 1: who could go for my gun and kill me while 185 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,680 Speaker 1: I'm on the job, I better be careful that I 186 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: don't put, you know, my elbow in the wrong place, 187 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,199 Speaker 1: or else I'm going to end up in prison as 188 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 1: the police officer. They cut the NYPD budget by a 189 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:04,080 Speaker 1: billion dollars. This is the fascinating thing play is at 190 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 1: the same time that we're hearing, and this is true 191 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 1: in city after city, New York, San Francisco, Philadelphia, Los Angeles. 192 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 1: They talk about lowering gun crime and going after the 193 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 1: illegal guns. Arrests are way up for illegal gun possession 194 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 1: in New York City. Prosecution somehow are way down. And 195 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:28,559 Speaker 1: this is the phenomenon that you see that's just enraging 196 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 1: of people who do terrible things. And think of all 197 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 1: a lot of the high profile cases in any city 198 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 1: across the country. They kill somebody out of nowhere, and 199 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 1: we find out they've been arrested thirty times. You've been 200 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 1: arrested seventy times. There was somebody in New York City 201 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 1: you just got his one hundred shoplifting arrest. It was 202 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 1: like the lib media wanted to give him some kind 203 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 1: of a prize. Look at him. He's gotten away with 204 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:54,319 Speaker 1: it one hundred times. This is a mindset. This is 205 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 1: an ideology that Democrats have pushed for their It's rooted 206 00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 1: in virtue signaling. It's rooted in their sense of guilt. 207 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:04,440 Speaker 1: It's rooted in their belief that somehow you don't have 208 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,320 Speaker 1: to give cops. I mean, here, Mayor Adams has neighborhood 209 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 1: safety teams. This is what he said in response to this, Clay. 210 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,680 Speaker 1: Listen to how they describe this. Neighborhood safety teams the 211 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,720 Speaker 1: City of New York. These are police squads intensively trained 212 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:21,599 Speaker 1: in minimal force techniques, advanced tactics, car stops. De Escalation 213 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:25,679 Speaker 1: is essential to all of it. Now, de escalation is important, 214 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 1: but we're actually trying to go after bad guys here, 215 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 1: and the cops have to feel supported and not be 216 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 1: told that they're basically social workers who happen to have 217 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 1: a gun. Being concerned that you're being too tough on 218 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 1: criminals is a luxury of a low crime environment. That's 219 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 1: where we got We got convinced that crime was not 220 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 1: a major issue, and we allowed it to creep back up, 221 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 1: and then the George Floyd BLM protest put this all 222 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:55,119 Speaker 1: on steroids and the numbers. Now it's impossible to argue otherwise. 223 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 1: You go look in May of twenty twenty. In June 224 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty, we basically suddenly went on a rocket ship, 225 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 1: a violent crime exploding because we attacked our police officers, 226 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 1: told them they couldn't do their jobs. And then that 227 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:12,680 Speaker 1: combined with the soft on crime environment and I'm gonna 228 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: we come back, buck. I want to share an example 229 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:20,560 Speaker 1: of how celebrities have helped to fuel the environment of 230 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,960 Speaker 1: this awfulness. Lebron James in particular. I'll tell you about 231 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 1: something that happened in Akron that I bet almost none 232 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 1: of you have even heard of. Yeah, and I just 233 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,439 Speaker 1: want to add to this as just in the background, 234 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 1: we keep talking about this because the Democrats aren't changing course. Really, 235 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 1: they're just hoping this goes away. And we're a month, 236 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,680 Speaker 1: we're months away from an opportunity to actually have some 237 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:48,199 Speaker 1: accountability for these bad ideas they have ruined cities? Folks, 238 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 1: Do you want to hold them accountable? And when you 239 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 1: hear Clay's story and the silence of lebron Ja I 240 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 1: mean of Lebron James on an issue. It's it's enraging, 241 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 1: but we've got to tell you the truth, no matter 242 00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 1: how angry it makes some folks. Look, the cell phone 243 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 1: service I rely on is the cell phone service you 244 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 1: should rely on. It's Pure Talk, and the service connection, 245 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 1: the data speed, it's every bit as fast as the 246 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,960 Speaker 1: big brand name service I had before. The only difference 247 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 1: is Pure Talk has plans that started twenty dollars a month, 248 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,199 Speaker 1: not the eighty or ninety bucks the other companies want 249 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 1: you to pay. If you're with AT and T and 250 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: T Mobile, you're paying too much. They like charging you 251 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 1: a premium for data for services you don't actually even use. 252 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 1: Instead of paying eighty nine dollars a month to your 253 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 1: current provider, pay twenty dollars to pure Talk.

We're gonna talk a 269 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 1: little bit more about this in the implications of it. 270 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 1: But Buck, using the example of the random act of 271 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:27,280 Speaker 1: violence that occurred in Manhattan, the woman pushing her baby 272 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 1: that was shot, this is not just happening in cities 273 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 1: like Manhattan. I want to tell you a detail here 274 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 1: and then we're gonna talk about it a bit more. 275 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 1: Coming out of the break, almost no one is discussing 276 00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 1: seventeen year old Ethan Limming. He was murdered in the 277 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 1: parking lot of Lebron James's High School in Akron, Ohio. 278 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 1: They have now done the full autopsy. He was stomped 279 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 1: to death. Stomped to death in the parking lot of 280 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 1: Lebron James High School, his spine was broken. These details 281 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 1: are excruciating to even be able to share with you 282 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:16,360 Speaker 1: from the autopsy. Joe Kenzie has written about it up 283 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 1: at OutKick dot com. But three guys have been charged 284 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 1: with stomping this kid to death. This started buck over 285 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 1: a water gun. There were kids playing basketball outdoors at 286 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 1: Lebron James's high school. Another kid riding in a car 287 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 1: came by with a water gun. Now, the kid who 288 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 1: was stomped to death, seventeen year old Ethan Lemming, is 289 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:46,000 Speaker 1: a white kid. There were three adult black men who 290 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 1: stamped him to death, Donovan Jones allegedly, Tyler Stafford Deshaun Stafford. 291 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 1: They are twenty one, nineteen, and twenty years old. Think 292 00:16:56,600 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 1: about how much Lebron James has spoken out related to 293 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:04,679 Speaker 1: violence and issues. Remember he posted a picture of a 294 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:08,159 Speaker 1: cop who had fired a shot and said you're next. Basically, 295 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 1: he hasn't said a word. He has not mentioned Ethan 296 00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 1: Lemming's name once. This kid was stomped to death buck 297 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:23,160 Speaker 1: in the parking lot of his school, and Lebron James 298 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:26,680 Speaker 1: all of his tweets, all of his Instagram messages, He's 299 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 1: weighed in on every left wing social justice issue accused 300 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:35,240 Speaker 1: everybody of racism. Three black kids stomped this white kid 301 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 1: to death in his parking lot. He hasn't even mentioned 302 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 1: this kid's name. When we come back, I just wanted 303 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 1: to talk about how focusing on identity overcrime has led 304 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:53,200 Speaker 1: us to such a disastrous place in our country.

That was the Mayor of New York, Eric Adams. 336 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,399 Speaker 1: It's always the guns, although he did say something I 337 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 1: believe they're about dangerous people who have the guns, which 338 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 1: is getting closer to the issue here, which is criminals 339 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:47,199 Speaker 1: and arresting, prosecuting and imprisoning those who are a threat 340 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:49,920 Speaker 1: to their fellow human beings and who break the law. 341 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:52,680 Speaker 1: We have an update for you on that. The reason 342 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 1: the mayor is speaking out on this is because of 343 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 1: this execution style shooting on the Upper East Side of 344 00:19:57,040 --> 00:20:03,439 Speaker 1: Manhattan last night. It was a domestic violence incident. The 345 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 1: police are now saying, here's what we know. According to 346 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 1: The New York Post, the young mom who was shot 347 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:10,879 Speaker 1: and killed while strollering her three month old baby on 348 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:14,199 Speaker 1: the Upper east Side was a domestic violence victim. She 349 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:18,120 Speaker 1: was identified as a twenty year old named Asia Johnson. 350 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 1: She had been planning on meeting her infant's dad on 351 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 1: last night she was targeted. It was a close headshot, 352 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 1: the police said, and when speaking to the family, what 353 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,879 Speaker 1: they found out was that this was a long standing 354 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:37,919 Speaker 1: threat against this woman from this individual that's now the 355 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:41,919 Speaker 1: prime suspect. Following the altercation, the ex boyfriend stalked and 356 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 1: harassed their daughter. According to the family, they called police 357 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 1: for help, but he was not arrested. We called the 358 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 1: priested numerous times to tell the domestic violence unit that 359 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 1: he was stalking and harassing her, even though they knew 360 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 1: what apartment he lived in. They failed to apprehend him 361 00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:00,479 Speaker 1: and arrest him. According to the mother of the victim, 362 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 1: and then her quote here, Clay, this city failed to 363 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:08,399 Speaker 1: protect my daughter. And that's how a lot of people 364 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:14,400 Speaker 1: feel right now about what this city's insufficient law enforcement 365 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: environment is. They're not doing what is necessary to keep 366 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:20,959 Speaker 1: people safe at a level that we've seen in the past. Right, 367 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:24,399 Speaker 1: No one's expecting perfection, but things have gotten out of hand. Now. 368 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 1: I know there's this case, and there's also the Lebron 369 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 1: James not speaking out issue that you wanted to talk 370 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:36,879 Speaker 1: more about. Yeah, look, the situation as you break it 371 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 1: down with this Lebron James incident. The only reason why 372 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 1: this initially went public, Buck, is because they couldn't figure 373 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:49,160 Speaker 1: out who the kids were. And they're not kids, they're 374 00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:51,400 Speaker 1: grown ups now, but they initially thought maybe they were 375 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 1: miners that had stamped this kid to death, so there 376 00:21:56,160 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 1: was an initial search. Lebron said nothing about, Hey, let's 377 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 1: try and catch these guys. Let's try and make sure 378 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:06,479 Speaker 1: that we have justice. He just sent out a random 379 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:11,680 Speaker 1: tweet that said prayers up for the victim in this situation, 380 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:15,800 Speaker 1: didn't name him, didn't give any indication who the killers 381 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:19,360 Speaker 1: may have been, and I just want everyone out there 382 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 1: to think about the way that Lebron would have handled 383 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:28,399 Speaker 1: this situation. If three white kids had stamped a black 384 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 1: kid to death in the parking lot of his high school, 385 00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:35,639 Speaker 1: do you think he would have only sent out a 386 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 1: tweet saying prayers up for the victim? Or would the 387 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 1: city of Akron be burning over this incident if you 388 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:53,359 Speaker 1: change the races outside of Lebron's school. Now, the reason 389 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 1: why I bring this up is we have created social 390 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 1: media has certainly accelerated it, but we have created the 391 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:06,439 Speaker 1: idea that victims only matter based on the identity of 392 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 1: who kills them. That's really the legacy of BLM. It 393 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 1: should be black lives matter in parenthetical when white people 394 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 1: are involved in their deaths. Because all of the inner 395 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:22,800 Speaker 1: city shootings that go on that are overwhelmingly black on 396 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: black crime, most people don't even pay attention, and the 397 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 1: vast majority of BLM activists don't even lift a finger 398 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 1: when kids are murdered every single day all over this country. 399 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 1: There are thousands and thousands of murder victims getting no 400 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:45,240 Speaker 1: justice in this country, and the only time, by and large, 401 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,240 Speaker 1: the media pays attention is when there is an identity 402 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:52,199 Speaker 1: politics related angle to cover. So Lebron is a perfect 403 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 1: example of this because he tweets all the time and 404 00:23:55,880 --> 00:24:02,919 Speaker 1: incessantly about race related grievance. But in his own school's 405 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 1: parking lot, when a white kid was stomped to death 406 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 1: by three different black kids, Lebron James won't even utter 407 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:15,159 Speaker 1: the name of the white victim. They were and they 408 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 1: were grown men, they were adults, grown men, and they 409 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:22,480 Speaker 1: wouldn't He wouldn't even ask for people in Acron, his hometown, 410 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 1: to help catch the culprits here. Still hasn't said anything, 411 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:31,879 Speaker 1: Buck and he be a lebroblematic of how what a 412 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:35,399 Speaker 1: fraud he is. He's the same Lebron James who called 413 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 1: out the police officer who shot exactly Rakia Bryant saved 414 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 1: that saved someone's life, save the girl was lodging with 415 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,400 Speaker 1: a knife and the police officer arrived on the scene 416 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 1: and shot the woman to keep her from stabbing to 417 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:52,679 Speaker 1: death another person. And Lebron put a picture up of 418 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 1: that police officer and said basically, you're next, if I 419 00:24:56,119 --> 00:25:01,199 Speaker 1: remember correctly, arguing that he was the new DeReKo. One 420 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 1: of the most grotesque things the celebrity has done involving 421 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,880 Speaker 1: police action I've ever seen, to be honestly, there's why 422 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 1: another reason why Lebron James is the most famous NBA player. 423 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 1: I do not watch the NBA. I do not support 424 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 1: the NBA. But I sit here, Clay and I get 425 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 1: so frustrated too, because we're being lectured by the media 426 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 1: constantly about violence nationwide. Right We're being told that we 427 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 1: have to tackle the problem of violence. Of course, we 428 00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 1: all agree violence is horrible. It's the most serious crimes 429 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,679 Speaker 1: we have to deal with involve the use of violence, 430 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 1: the criminal use of force. And yet what you see 431 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 1: is this fixation on the NRA and gun laws instead 432 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:44,160 Speaker 1: of the real problem. The problem is not somebody who 433 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 1: wants to have an AAR fifteen that they have in 434 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:51,360 Speaker 1: their home lawfully and take to the range. You can 435 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:53,960 Speaker 1: take their ten round magazine and make it seven, or 436 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,440 Speaker 1: make it five, or tell them they're only allowed to 437 00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 1: own a Blunderbuss or whatever. It's not going to change 438 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 1: the problem. That's why I'm Kathy Hokel is going out 439 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 1: there saying now in response to the Supreme Court decision 440 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:10,719 Speaker 1: on New York States gun carry policy, I mean here's 441 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 1: what she says. Listen, it's really people that are getting 442 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 1: these guns illegally that are causing the violence, not the 443 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:19,959 Speaker 1: people going and getting the permit legally. And that's the 444 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 1: basis for the whole Supreme Court argument. Do you have 445 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 1: the numbers. I don't need to have numbers. I don't 446 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:28,919 Speaker 1: need I don't have to have a data point to 447 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 1: point two to say that this is going to make 448 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 1: All I know is I have a responsibility to the 449 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 1: people of this state to have sensible gun safety laws. 450 00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:39,080 Speaker 1: And this one was not devised by the hoc administration. 451 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:41,880 Speaker 1: It comes out of an administration from nineteen oh eight. 452 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:43,920 Speaker 1: I don't need a data point to make the case 453 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 1: that I have a responsibility to protect the people of 454 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 1: this state. Just put aside for a second. I mean, 455 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:51,320 Speaker 1: she's she is honestly one of the dumbest people in 456 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:55,159 Speaker 1: politics on the scene today, one of one of the 457 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 1: dumbest people in American politics today. But beyond that, Clay, 458 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:05,199 Speaker 1: notice it's what's politically convenient for Democrats. Gun violence is bad. 459 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:08,399 Speaker 1: Shootings are up. Violence across the board is up. Let's 460 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 1: go after people who obey gun laws and harass them 461 00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 1: more because they are disproportionately Republican and mail and not 462 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 1: the base of the Democrat party. Instead of dealing with 463 00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 1: where the violence is happening, which is going to be 464 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 1: in cities, which is going to involve people with criminal records, 465 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:31,159 Speaker 1: they don't want to touch that issue. Bail reform laws, 466 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:34,360 Speaker 1: that's not going to do anything. Playing clothes unit, that's 467 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,400 Speaker 1: not that this is their mentality. But you know, changing 468 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:41,119 Speaker 1: the front stock on an AAR fifteen, that's hero stuff 469 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:45,120 Speaker 1: right there. Credit to the media member who asked that 470 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:49,639 Speaker 1: question because it elucidated the response of I don't need data. 471 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:54,679 Speaker 1: I don't need any actual facts to support my arguments. 472 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:58,159 Speaker 1: Because did you hear that answer? I mean, she's clearly 473 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:01,119 Speaker 1: not very smart, but she also, I don't think, was 474 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:05,879 Speaker 1: expecting to get a question like that which basically said, hey, 475 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:09,920 Speaker 1: can you provide any factual evidence to back up your 476 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 1: policy at all? And she said I don't need it, 477 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 1: which is welcome to Democrats. The way Democrats do with 478 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 1: crime is what feels good for them to do and 479 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 1: what is politically expedient for them to do.

As we roll you into the holiday, 506 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 1: we can make sure you can follow the show wherever 507 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,960 Speaker 1: you find yourself across the country or around the world. 508 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 1: I want to hit you with a couple of Supreme 509 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 1: Court decisions that came down and the reaction to those. 510 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 1: The EPA's power has been severely curtailed. And this is 511 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 1: part of a larger issue with agencies taking overwhelming sort 512 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:30,160 Speaker 1: of running room to be able to advance causes which 513 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 1: the agency cares about without any congressional oversight or authority. 514 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:39,440 Speaker 1: And so this sort of unregulated agency state has been 515 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:43,440 Speaker 1: reined in, in particular the EPA and their ability to 516 00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 1: regulate carbon emissions in a six three decision that came 517 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:51,640 Speaker 1: down within the last couple of hours. Also, that's a 518 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,240 Speaker 1: positive for those of us out there who believe that 519 00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 1: democracy should actually matter and are concerned about the federal 520 00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 1: bureaucracy's overreach in a five to four decision, however, where 521 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 1: John Roberts joined the majority, the Remain in Mexico sitch 522 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 1: a plan which had been overwhelmingly successful. Buck, you can 523 00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:13,960 Speaker 1: speak to this pretty well because you've been to the 524 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:17,680 Speaker 1: border several times. Donald Trump solved much of the issues 525 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:21,080 Speaker 1: that were rising in terms of illegal immigration with a 526 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 1: remain in Mexico policy, which Joe Biden has repealed, and 527 00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court, in a five to four decision, decided 528 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 1: that the Biden administration did have the ability, due to 529 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:37,440 Speaker 1: the immigration powers residing inside of the executive branch, to 530 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 1: overturn that remain in Mexico policy of Donald Trump impact there. 531 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 1: From your perspective, I mean, the Alito dissent is pretty 532 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:49,640 Speaker 1: blistering on this one, and it's when you go and 533 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 1: read into it a little bit what you find is 534 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 1: so much of this is rooted in bad faith execution 535 00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:01,560 Speaker 1: of the laws by the executive branch. So Alito starts 536 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 1: out by writing that in twenty twenty one, the Border 537 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:08,360 Speaker 1: Patrol reported one point seven million encounters with aliens along 538 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,880 Speaker 1: the Mexican border. Notice, the Supreme Court uses the term 539 00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 1: aliens not undocumented, by the way, because that's actually the 540 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 1: Federal Code term. When it appears that one of these 541 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:21,560 Speaker 1: aliens is not admissible, the government may the government simply 542 00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:24,560 Speaker 1: release the alien in this country and hope that the 543 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 1: alien will show up for the hearing at which his 544 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 1: or her entitlement to remain will be decided. Congress has 545 00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,040 Speaker 1: provided a clear answer to that question. The answer is no. 546 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:36,360 Speaker 1: By law, if an alien is not clearly and beyond 547 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:40,400 Speaker 1: a doubt entitled to be admitted, the alien shall be detained. 548 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:43,480 Speaker 1: So the problem here that that's from the Alito dissent 549 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:47,080 Speaker 1: four justices. Of course, going along with this five you 550 00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 1: had Kavanaugh and Roberts on the wrong side of this one. 551 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 1: No surprise with Roberts. Kavanaugh also honestly a little for 552 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 1: all the oh my gosh, Cavenaugh, He's like Roberts with 553 00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,400 Speaker 1: a little more hair. He's really not that rely. I'm 554 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,680 Speaker 1: just gonna say it. But you look at this and 555 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 1: what's what the core of the issue is the Biden 556 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:12,960 Speaker 1: administration is using its executive authority to ignore the intent 557 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,560 Speaker 1: of the law, even if the actual verbiage of the 558 00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 1: law allows for this, so that people can continue by 559 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 1: the millions to scam our immigration system enter illegally and 560 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 1: stay forever. Biden could stop this Clay DHS Majorcas running, 561 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 1: it could stop it, they choose not to. That's what 562 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 1: the that's what's at the core of the decision. And 563 00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:40,200 Speaker 1: if you listened yesterday to our interview with Texas Governor 564 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 1: Greg Abbott, in addition to saying that Joe Biden was 565 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:48,440 Speaker 1: to blame for the fifty plus deaths that recently occurred 566 00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 1: in those smuggling deaths in the back of the truck, 567 00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:58,480 Speaker 1: he also said that Majorcas should be impeached by Republicans 568 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 1: after the midterms based on his failure to protect the border. 569 00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:06,040 Speaker 1: And this certainly is going to be a major topic 570 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:10,839 Speaker 1: in the state of Arizona, where the direction of the 571 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:17,280 Speaker 1: United States Senate may well turn. You've got Arizona, Nevada, Georgia, Wisconsin, 572 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:22,400 Speaker 1: all of these states, Pennsylvania with really important Senate elections 573 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:25,720 Speaker 1: where we're tied fifty fifty. Maybe there'll be other states 574 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:30,760 Speaker 1: that end up in the mix two. But it's a tough, tougher, 575 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 1: much tougher Senate battleground than it is for the House. 576 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:38,279 Speaker 1: Almost one hundred billion percent. Right now, the House is 577 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 1: going to be in Republican control. Speaker Pelosi is going 578 00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:44,000 Speaker 1: to be gone. But the Senate buck as we've talked 579 00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:46,880 Speaker 1: about for a long time, Democrats are not having to 580 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:49,239 Speaker 1: defend as many seats. The seats many of them that 581 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:53,160 Speaker 1: they are defending are on much safer ground, and so 582 00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:57,359 Speaker 1: who controls the Senate in twenty twenty two is going 583 00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:00,399 Speaker 1: to really kind of be something potentially on a raisers edge. 584 00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:03,040 Speaker 1: May come down to Arizona. And we're talking to Mark 585 00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:06,640 Speaker 1: Bernovich here in a little bit, the Attorney General of Arizona. 586 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 1: I know there's a battle going on for the Republican 587 00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:12,439 Speaker 1: Senate nomination there to go against Mark Kelly, but this 588 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 1: is the kind of issue in Arizona that could be 589 00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:17,320 Speaker 1: incredibly important, and we're going to talk about this issue 590 00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:19,880 Speaker 1: with him next hour. Democrats are for open borders. The 591 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:23,280 Speaker 1: Biden administration is making it so it's a clear decision 592 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:25,879 Speaker 1: and if the American people don't like it, they need 593 00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:28,720 Speaker 1: to be held These Democrats need to be held to account. 594 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:30,560 Speaker 1: Just one more thing on the EPA clay before we 595 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:32,880 Speaker 1: I know, we're gonna talk about Biden and the filibuster. 596 00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:36,360 Speaker 1: Ending the filibuster overturned the system because they care so 597 00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:39,279 Speaker 1: much about our sacred democracy until they don't get their way. 598 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 1: Then they want to take their ball home and no 599 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:43,960 Speaker 1: one else can play with it. Right. But Barack Obama 600 00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:46,279 Speaker 1: on the EPA thing, I just you know, he just 601 00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:49,719 Speaker 1: tweets this stuff. No challenge poses a greater threat to 602 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:53,480 Speaker 1: our future than a changing climate. Every day we're feeling 603 00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 1: the impact of climate change, and today's Supreme Court decision 604 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 1: is a major step backwards. If things, if we had 605 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:02,160 Speaker 1: like a add week in Europe, we could have a 606 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:06,880 Speaker 1: nuclear war with Russia. But Obama says, the biggest challenge 607 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 1: right now people can afford their gas. The border's wide open. 608 00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:13,640 Speaker 1: Inflations the worst it's been in forty years. The biggest 609 00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 1: challenge to our future is the theoretical rise of point 610 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:22,600 Speaker 1: five degrees celsius in global climate that we may have 611 00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:26,799 Speaker 1: over the next forty to fifty years. I'm crying already. 612 00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:28,719 Speaker 1: You and I have talked about this on the show 613 00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:31,880 Speaker 1: quite a bit. Neither of us loses an ounce a 614 00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:37,200 Speaker 1: moment's sleep over over the global warming. I just it's 615 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:40,240 Speaker 1: not even in my top twenty concerns. It's a religious 616 00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:42,440 Speaker 1: belief for Libs who think they're too smart for religion. 617 00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:44,440 Speaker 1: It really is this is their stand in, this is 618 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 1: what they I'm gonna save the planet. They're not, actually, 619 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:50,160 Speaker 1: And you know what I got news for them. We're 620 00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:53,399 Speaker 1: all gonna die, so worry about How about a way 621 00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:57,800 Speaker 1: to end the hour? Sexton Fleet, Travis and Buck Sexton 622 00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:07,520 Speaker 1: on the front lines of truth m M.
