So before 22 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:33,039 Speaker 1: I get into the latest on the back and forth 23 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 1: over Ukraine, an impeachment, and this political fight that has 24 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 1: become an obsession of the media and an obsession of 25 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 1: the political class. I wonder how much most Americans really 26 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 1: care about this, although I suppose we'll just have to 27 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: wait and see what comes of it all. I want 28 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 1: to tell you that last night I went to a 29 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 1: gala here in New York City for the New York 30 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 1: Young Republican Club. It was a great, great event. The 31 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: guys who put it together really made it all happen, 32 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: and it was It was fun. It was a it 33 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 1: was like a Conservative Avengers reunion kind of situation. We 34 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:18,239 Speaker 1: had a man Raheem Kassam there, Lieutenant Colonel Tony Schaeffer, 35 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,359 Speaker 1: Steve Bannon was there. I gotta say. Bannon gave a keynote, 36 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 1: and I I've met Steve before and I'm familiar with 37 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,919 Speaker 1: some of his work. His speech was or the mic 38 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 1: didn't work. So Bannon stands up and there must have 39 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: been almost three hundred people. I think we're there last night. 40 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,920 Speaker 1: It was two fifty or two sixty in the in 41 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 1: the ballroom, and Bannon stood up and the mic was 42 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,079 Speaker 1: just on the on the fritz. So he just said, 43 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 1: all right, I'm just gonna project, which is this is 44 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 1: what a pro does, right, That's how you do things. 45 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 1: It would have been like, I'm just gonna say it 46 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: would have been my move. You don't want to keep 47 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 1: being a test dang, test dang, touching the mic and 48 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 1: you lose people if there's too much of that. And 49 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 1: the room was small enough that he could project. So 50 00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 1: he stood up and he gave a very good speech, 51 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 1: and she said, we are we are losing right now. 52 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 1: He said, We're not losing in a micro policy sense, 53 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,239 Speaker 1: but we are losing if we don't understand how close 54 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 1: we are to continuing to lose ground to China, for example, 55 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:20,959 Speaker 1: lose ground to socialists in our own country. And just 56 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:24,640 Speaker 1: because Donald Trump has been a moment of pushback and 57 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 1: fight back against all of that, it doesn't mean that 58 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 1: if you take if you take a step back and 59 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: look at the totality of what's going on, that the 60 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 1: situation for conservatism and for individual liberty and constitutionalism in 61 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 1: this country is looking good. If you were to put 62 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: it on, if you were to plot this on a 63 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: longer X Y axis, it is trending against liberty, it 64 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 1: is trending toward collectivism. This is not what he said. 65 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 1: This is my interpretation of some of Steve's remarks. And 66 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 1: he also gave just his review of what it was 67 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 1: like going into the final weeks of the election. Because 68 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 1: I believe three years ago. Was it three years ago today? 69 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 1: November eighth? At least three years ago was when we 70 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: had our first day? Was it the first day of 71 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: the election, the first day after the election. It's been 72 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 1: three years. It's rather amazing that this time has gone 73 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 1: by so quickly. Yep, Raheem Kassan Pasobic Bannon was there. 74 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:30,039 Speaker 1: Lieutenant Colonel Tony Schaefer was there, a bunch of other 75 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 1: folks that, Oh Rob Smith, great guy he was. It's 76 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: funny I saw Rob in the New York City subway 77 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:37,479 Speaker 1: in the morning randomly, and then I saw him at 78 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 1: night at the Galla. So even New York with eight 79 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,480 Speaker 1: million people, can feel rather small sometimes. Well, while it 80 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 1: was a fantastic night, my little brother was there. He's 81 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 1: looking very dapper as always. While it was a great 82 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 1: night for all involved, there was a contingent outside of 83 00:04:56,400 --> 00:05:02,159 Speaker 1: of protesters, and they had clearly studied who they invited 84 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 1: and you know, VIP guests or whatever you want to 85 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 1: call them, essentially media people or those with some public profile. 86 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: And it was also a black tie event or black 87 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,239 Speaker 1: tie preferred, so most people were wearing I mean, Bannon 88 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 1: didn't wear black tie. Don't worry Bannon war with Bannon wars, 89 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 1: which is very specific to Bannon. But there were people 90 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,359 Speaker 1: who were outside and there must have been about sixty 91 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:34,600 Speaker 1: or seventy protesters i'd say, outside of this event, and they, 92 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:39,159 Speaker 1: you know, yelled epithets as I was walking past them, 93 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,840 Speaker 1: you know things, you know, alt right and racist and 94 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 1: things like that. And then I have to tell you 95 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 1: one of them actually jumped out from the credt. Now 96 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: there were police there, so there were police standing right there, 97 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 1: which is interesting because on the one hand, I know 98 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,839 Speaker 1: some of you are saying, well, if someone got up 99 00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 1: in my face in this way, I would, well, if 100 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 1: the cops are there, someone yells at you and you 101 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 1: put and you you know, you escalate that situation. You're 102 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 1: the one who's going to get the silver bracelets on you. 103 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:13,600 Speaker 1: So you just have to walk into the building and 104 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 1: not pay attention to it. But there was one individual 105 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:20,279 Speaker 1: in particular who kind of got up and actually stood 106 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,599 Speaker 1: in front of me to block my way. And he 107 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:28,279 Speaker 1: looked to be he was a white male, probably late forties, 108 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 1: early fifties, and you know, I don't think that. Let's 109 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:40,159 Speaker 1: just say he was not a rugged looking fellow, and 110 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: he looked like he'd spent a lot of time indoors 111 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 1: playing battle chest by himself. And I had this guy 112 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 1: in my face and he was screaming in my face, 113 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 1: you are not welcome here. I'm a member. It was 114 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 1: at the Yale Club. I'm a member, you are not welcome. 115 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,720 Speaker 1: You're screaming in my face. I just kind of looked 116 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: at him and you know, smiled actually in his walk, 117 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:08,359 Speaker 1: walked around him. And it was so interesting because my 118 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: mindset at first it was, you know, what a clown. 119 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: And there was a little part of me that was like, 120 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: you're lucky that there are people here, because I am somebody, 121 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 1: and I should probably get this out of the way 122 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 1: now in case there ever is an incident. I don't. 123 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 1: I don't deal with aggression usually by just being cool 124 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: about it. I may seem very mellow and relax and 125 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: I do the show which I am, and I think 126 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 1: I'm a very fair fellow and never looked to start 127 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 1: any problems, but I do not react passively to aggression. 128 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: That said, I initially had that moment that I think 129 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: a lot of guys in the audience and galls in 130 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: the audience would where it was this guy's lucky that, 131 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 1: you know, because the worst thing you can do as 132 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: a conservative, of course, And apologies for my voice, obviously, 133 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 1: I was out a little bit late last night. There 134 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:01,640 Speaker 1: was some mescal involved, but the worst actually was tequila. 135 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 1: Wasn't mescal for really going to be fair, I asked 136 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: for mescal and they didn't have it, so I wanted 137 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 1: there to be mescal, but there was just tequila. If 138 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 1: you do anything, if I say, if you say anything, 139 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 1: if you curse it them, they're all just hoping to 140 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 1: create some incident that then they can put on. I 141 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:22,119 Speaker 1: saw someone call huff post Huff huff poop this warning 142 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 1: on Twitter, which I had never seen that before. That 143 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 1: was interesting. But one of those sites and or someone 144 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:33,080 Speaker 1: also referred to vox as as pox like chicken pox. 145 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 1: But you know, they're waiting for somebody to overreact and 146 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 1: do something bad in a circumstance like that, and so 147 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 1: I had my I know that, and so I'm just 148 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,200 Speaker 1: going by them and I kind of like smiled at 149 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 1: some of them just because. But then I was walking 150 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:48,560 Speaker 1: the building, I had I had a couple of other thoughts. 151 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,439 Speaker 1: I mean, there was this process that went, the initial 152 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:51,959 Speaker 1: thing of somebody getting right up in your face, you 153 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,960 Speaker 1: doesn't know you, screaming at you, and they targeted me specifically. 154 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 1: I mean, Bannon was smart enough to show up later 155 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 1: on when they didn't have a permanent anymore. So the 156 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,559 Speaker 1: police weren't there, so you can go in the back door, said, 157 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 1: you know, some of the other people I just went 158 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 1: at the very beginning the event, I didn't care. And 159 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 1: so they came after me specifically and got right up 160 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 1: in my face and yelling at me. And you have 161 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 1: that initial that initial feeling of this person is showing aggression. 162 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 1: He's lucky, I don't I don't, you know, take his 163 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,839 Speaker 1: head off. And then as I walk inside, I just thought, 164 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,199 Speaker 1: this is really what libs are now, this is who 165 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: they've turned into. This guy allegedly went to Yale University. 166 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 1: It's pouring rain outside, there's an event with people who 167 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: are it's a private event, people wearing black tie in. 168 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:41,679 Speaker 1: You know, the all I mean the keynote speakers are 169 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 1: military veterans, all three of them, and all of whom 170 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: served their country in uniform. And there was a very 171 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 1: It was just not that this really should make any 172 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 1: difference to anybody, because you know, but I thought it 173 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 1: was interesting. It was a particularly diverse crowd as well, 174 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,679 Speaker 1: which I just think the left I always say, oh, 175 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: you know, it's all these white male Republicans. Anybody who 176 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:05,319 Speaker 1: was there last night. The first of all, obviously it 177 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 1: was about half women, but even beyond that, it was 178 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 1: very It was actually a diverse room. Not that I 179 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 1: feel like we should always have to have that caveator, 180 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,959 Speaker 1: just does every party have to have a I mean, 181 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,559 Speaker 1: private party have a diversity quotient. Well, the left seems 182 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 1: to like to enforce that kind of thinking. But as 183 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,439 Speaker 1: we went in, or as I went into the building, 184 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: I just remember thinking, I talk about these limbs on 185 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: the air and how they're crazy, and it was actually 186 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 1: it was good to experience this because this was and 187 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:36,960 Speaker 1: it's not the first time, and I get people write 188 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 1: horrible things to me. I don't write, I mean, I 189 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: don't read the stuff that comes in on roll call. 190 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:45,680 Speaker 1: That's you know, your horrible. You know, go go blank 191 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 1: yourself or go do something terrible to yourself. You know. 192 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 1: I don't read because why, I mean, it doesn't it's not. 193 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: If it's funny, occasionally I'll read it, but I don't 194 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 1: read this stuff where it's just people who are venting spleen. 195 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,200 Speaker 1: It's not worth hearing for anybody. But as as I 196 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 1: went to the building, I was thinking, this is real. 197 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: I mean, people have actually lost it. I mean I 198 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 1: would be so ashamed to show up at a private 199 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:15,559 Speaker 1: event and get in the face of a stranger and 200 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: yell at that person and try to ruin that person's night, 201 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 1: which it didn't at all. I had a great night. 202 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,439 Speaker 1: Sexton brothers were out in the town, had tons of friends. 203 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 1: We had a fantastic night. So it was great. I 204 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:27,679 Speaker 1: would never last ning like this again in the way 205 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,200 Speaker 1: of that. But that was the purpose. Obviously, it was 206 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: to rattle people and make them feel, you know, like 207 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 1: like they can't have a moment's peace. This was a 208 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 1: purely so it was a social event. It had nothing 209 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 1: to do with you know, we weren't raising money for 210 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 1: a candidate or anything. And it is a reminder that 211 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 1: these people are they are crazy. I mean, they really 212 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 1: have taken politics to a level that I would be. 213 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:52,559 Speaker 1: I would be. I would not just be ashamed personally, 214 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,959 Speaker 1: I would be ashamed to be friends with someone I 215 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 1: would I'd be ashamed to be associated with somebody who 216 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 1: would wait in the rain outside of a private party 217 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 1: to yell. By the way, if I had asked, I mean, 218 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:06,320 Speaker 1: I thought about engaging this guy. What what do you 219 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 1: not like about my positions? You know, you you utter 220 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:11,320 Speaker 1: more on but it's it's not I'm going to a party. 221 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't care, it doesn't it doesn't benefit me. 222 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 1: But I'd be ashamed to even be associated with a 223 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 1: human being that would do that. And there were seventy 224 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,440 Speaker 1: of them or so fifty sixty seventy something like that 225 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 1: waiting outside, that's my estimate, all in a line of 226 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 1: placards the whole thing and pick people out to try 227 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 1: to And I know that they do this on college campuses, 228 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,719 Speaker 1: but keep in mind this this was not and this 229 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: was not meant to be. We weren't trying to provoke 230 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:39,440 Speaker 1: a dialogue with the outside world. This was a private 231 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 1: party that you know, some Antifa group in New York 232 00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 1: found out about and they sent their lunatics to it. 233 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 1: And I'm just gonna just gonna say this on the 234 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,560 Speaker 1: record right now for all the team because you know, 235 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: hopefully the hopefully the corporate folks in the world will 236 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,559 Speaker 1: always back me on this one. But if something ever 237 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 1: happens and I have to lay out one of these guys, 238 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,719 Speaker 1: I'm just telling you that they started it, Okay, It 239 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 1: just there's zero chance that I started it, So I 240 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 1: want to make sure that we're all you have. That 241 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 1: that is the that is my alibi from the get go. 242 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:12,960 Speaker 1: If something ever happens and there's a video of me 243 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 1: and I have to knock somebody out, they started it, 244 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 1: just so you know, because I know myself and I 245 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 1: would never react unless I was actually physically personally threatened 246 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 1: in that way. But they're they're crazy, which you saw, 247 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 1: and then you also have they're pathetic too. It's such 248 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: a such a bizarre, sad and loser thing to do 249 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: to wait outside of a social event and scream at 250 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 1: people because what because Donald because we voted for the 251 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 1: same president that half the country voted for, that that 252 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 1: makes that acceptable. And I would just wonder, you know, 253 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:54,199 Speaker 1: do these do these loser leftists, all Libs, all Democrats 254 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 1: all only know I'm sure MSNBC and CNN watchers they 255 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,959 Speaker 1: probably go on Slate and vox dot com and think 256 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 1: they're getting the truth. I mean, there wasn't a single 257 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 1: non leftist in this group of protesters outside. But you 258 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 1: have to wonder to yourself, well, I just would they 259 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:15,720 Speaker 1: be Okay, what if somebody was having a wedding, you know, 260 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 1: at that venue, and Steve Vanham was attending the wedding, 261 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 1: would they wait outside? And you know, the left really 262 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: is much closer to the depravity and disgrace of the 263 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 1: Westboro Baptist Church for example. Then I think many of 264 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 1: us know because the media is always covering up for 265 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:38,479 Speaker 1: them and trying to hide this. But they're not embarrassed 266 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 1: by these people, which I think is really noteworthy. I mean, 267 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 1: they're they're not disgusted by people who would wait outside 268 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 1: of a private event and get in a stranger's face, 269 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: someone they knew nothing about. And I mean he wasn't 270 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:53,160 Speaker 1: trying to intimidate me because that would not have worked, 271 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 1: but was clearly just trying to be rude, and I 272 00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 1: got it. Actually, I think more aggressively than anybody else. 273 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 1: I mean the other people. They really came after me 274 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 1: in particular because other people were walking in before me, 275 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 1: other people that I know from media world. And it's 276 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 1: it's a reminder that as I say to her, and 277 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 1: I tell you about these things about how we are 278 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 1: going into political trench warfare, we are going into an 279 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 1: era now where the gloves have come off and people 280 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 1: are ugly and they're nasty, and they're mean, and they're crazy, 281 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 1: and they're stupid, and they're ignorant, and they're liberals. That's 282 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 1: where we are. That's what has become normalized on the left. 283 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 1: There's no embarrassment over things like this. There's no sense 284 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 1: of shame that these people allegedly represent liberal values. They 285 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 1: represent liberal values by shaming people going to a social event. 286 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 1: You know, I just would wonder do they have any 287 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 1: boundaries at all, they have any respect, any decency whatsoever. 288 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: The answers no, of course not. And I'm quite honestly, 289 00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 1: I'm sure that if they found out that Steve Bannon 290 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 1: or some of the other people that were in Eric 291 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 1: Prince was in attendance as well, if some of them 292 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 1: were at I'm sure they would wait outside a wedding 293 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 1: and probably spit at the bride. These people are disgusting. 294 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: They are disgusting, and their liberals, they're leftists. They adhere 295 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 1: to this ideology that we're always told is in resistance 296 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 1: to Donald Trump. If this country goes down a very 297 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: unfortunate and destructive path, which I do have days where 298 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 1: I worry about that, I do think the same way 299 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: that I tell you that if I ever have to 300 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 1: defend myself against one of these Antifa lunatics, trust me, 301 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 1: it's their fault. If we ever go down the road 302 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 1: that I'm hoping is unthinkable, where this country really starts 303 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 1: to have political violence in the streets, which happened in 304 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 1: the sixties could happen again. Last night was a reminder 305 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 1: that these leftists, maniacs, they're the ones that are responsible 306 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 1: for it. That much we know ahead of time. All right, 307 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 1: let's talk about this whistleblower situation with some revelations on 308 00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 1: Tucker Carlson's show. Before I get I actually get into 309 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,560 Speaker 1: Tucker shows, say Dort, Producer Mark, we will not let 310 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 1: anybody know where Producer Mark's wedding is because if if 311 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 1: any of those Antifa clowns show up outside producer Mark's wedding. 312 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 1: All bets are off baby, old old school, buck the trade, 313 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 1: somebody they're a dead man. I know. I'll be right 314 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:17,159 Speaker 1: there with you. Man. It'll be like the scene in 315 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 1: Office Space where they have the fax machine, but it'll 316 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 1: actually be some guy from Antifa. That's what it'll end 317 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:26,120 Speaker 1: up happening. That's one of the best seeds that Office 318 00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: Space bet. If you haven't seen it, it's like worth 319 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,120 Speaker 1: going back, just because to this day, I think I'm 320 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 1: on my fourth printer in my apartment in like four years. 321 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 1: It's just they always break. They always there's always a paper. 322 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:41,160 Speaker 1: There's fear. They know when you really need to when 323 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,439 Speaker 1: you really need to print something, you're like desperate to 324 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 1: get some form in or you're gonna lose your driver's 325 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:47,199 Speaker 1: license or something. That's what always happens when you were 326 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,880 Speaker 1: in college and you really need to paper performance. It's 327 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,440 Speaker 1: outrageous anyway, Office Space, if you haven't seen it, that's 328 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 1: my movie wreck for the weekend. It is a timeless 329 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 1: classic that I'm sure would trigger libs if they watched 330 00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,400 Speaker 1: it today. All right, so what's the latest in this 331 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 1: whole saga? Do we call it? I'd like to call 332 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 1: it a farce, a saga. It is a comedy, but 333 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:13,480 Speaker 1: it's not funny. We're gonna here's just a general it's 334 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:15,440 Speaker 1: a prediction.

This it was a conspiracy, 340 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:37,359 Speaker 1: not a conspiracy theory. This was a conspiracy that there 341 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:43,880 Speaker 1: were people who are conspiring out of a moniacal hatred 342 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,359 Speaker 1: for this president, for what he represents, for the threat 343 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 1: to the established order of the elites in this country, 344 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:54,239 Speaker 1: and they feel very justified in doing a whole lot 345 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 1: of stuff, including up to and including breaking the law, 346 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 1: in order to harm this president.

Even if there's some mean people 355 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 1: on the home team. Mostly lives are the terrible ones though, 356 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:34,399 Speaker 1: just so you know. And there are people like Tucker 357 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 1: out there in media who are just awesome, very talented, 358 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 1: great guys, super nice.

There are 363 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 1: some really fantastic people on the right in media, So 364 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:55,360 Speaker 1: I know, I give the media all hard time, but 365 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: you know, Fox is like this one outpost of sanity 366 00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 1: and in a crazy, crazy world out there. So here's 367 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:05,360 Speaker 1: what happened though on Tucker's show. This is the exclusive 368 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:10,400 Speaker 1: that former US Ambassador to Ukraine, Marie Ivanovitch. I think 369 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,120 Speaker 1: that's the way we're supposed to say it. A key 370 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 1: witness in House democrats impeachment inquiry communicated via her personal 371 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:21,399 Speaker 1: email account with a Democratic Congressional staffer concerning a quite 372 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:26,119 Speaker 1: delicate and that's a quote and quote time sensitive matter, 373 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 1: just two days after the whistleblower complaint that kickstarted the 374 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:34,440 Speaker 1: inquiry was filed, and a month before the complaint became public. 375 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:40,920 Speaker 1: Emails appear to contradict Ivanovitch's deposition on Capitol Hill last month, 376 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 1: in which she told US Representative leez Zelden about an 377 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:48,439 Speaker 1: email she received on August fourteenth from the staffer Laura Kerry, 378 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 1: but indicated under oath that she never responded to it. 379 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 1: The communication came from the Foreign Affairs Committee, and they 380 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 1: wanted me to come in and talk about I guess 381 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:04,240 Speaker 1: the circumstances of my departure as Ambassador to Ukraine. Ivanovitch testified, 382 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 1: I alerted the State Department because I'm still an employee 383 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 1: and so matters are generally handled through the State Department. 384 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,879 Speaker 1: She then went on to say, so she emailed me. 385 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:16,879 Speaker 1: I alerted the State Department, and you know, asked them 386 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,480 Speaker 1: to handle the correspondence. And she emailed me again and said, 387 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 1: you know who should I be in touch with? Fox 388 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:25,119 Speaker 1: News is told that it is a breach of normal 389 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:27,399 Speaker 1: procedure for Congressional staff to reach out to a current 390 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:32,200 Speaker 1: State Department employee at their personal email address for official business. Yeah, 391 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 1: you canna say that again, Why would why would de 392 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:44,400 Speaker 1: former US ambassador to Ukraine, who is one of the 393 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 1: main voices that they point you now to shore up 394 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 1: this flimsy impeachment case against the president. Why would she 395 00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:58,960 Speaker 1: want to talk to them about a sensitive matter? Talked 396 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:05,439 Speaker 1: to a Democrat House staffer. Doesn't that seem odd quite 397 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:11,919 Speaker 1: delicate and time sensitive? Two days two days after the 398 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 1: whistleblower complaint. Does anybody want to take the position this 399 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 1: is a coincidence? Do they want to try that one? Oh? 400 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 1: This is yet another indicator of what I think we've 401 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:31,159 Speaker 1: all known has been the case all along. There were people, 402 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:37,920 Speaker 1: there was a group really of Obama administration holdovers or 403 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 1: people that had been in the State Department during the 404 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:43,679 Speaker 1: Obama administration, had formulated what they thought was Ukraine policy. 405 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 1: Keep in mind these Ukraine experts, this whole group of them, 406 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 1: vinmin Ivanovich, you've got all you know, You've got these 407 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 1: different ambassadors that are giving their testimony, So how many 408 00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 1: how many envoys and aids and ambassadors and all the 409 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 1: stuff they really but conversation for another time. You have 410 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 1: all of the all of this happening here, and yet 411 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:10,120 Speaker 1: they weren't able to do one of the most important 412 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 1: things that could have been accomplished. These these so called 413 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:19,880 Speaker 1: Ukraine policy including Eric Charamelo's name is now out there everywhere. 414 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,919 Speaker 1: We're all talking about it, and including last night on 415 00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:26,959 Speaker 1: or yesterday rather on the view that was that was 416 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:32,680 Speaker 1: a fiery exchange with the President's one of the President's sons, 417 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: Donald Trump Jr. And the ladies of the View. I still, though, 418 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:39,640 Speaker 1: I'm stunned by how stupid the analysis is of you're 419 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 1: breaking the law by sharing a news story that names 420 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 1: the whistleblower when everyone knows the name. So are we 421 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,879 Speaker 1: suppose we're really going to embrace this Orwellian world that 422 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,200 Speaker 1: the Left wants us to where we pe we pretend 423 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 1: to not know that, which we know that's going to 424 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: be the way that the game is played forward. I 425 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:02,639 Speaker 1: don't think so. I don't think we're going to do that. 426 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:08,919 Speaker 1: But Ivanovitch talking to a Democrat, of course, a Democrat 427 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 1: staff are on Capitol Hill. Oh and they weren't able 428 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:15,119 Speaker 1: to get lethal A to Ukraine, is what I was 429 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 1: going to say. They weren't able to convince the Obama ministry. 430 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:21,439 Speaker 1: All these Ukraine experts care so much about Ukraine but 431 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:25,880 Speaker 1: at the end of the day they were ineffective. That's right, 432 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:29,120 Speaker 1: at the end of the day. For all the complaining 433 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 1: about Donald Trump in Ukraine, the fact of the matter 434 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:39,240 Speaker 1: is that on the single most important decision about Ukraine 435 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:42,880 Speaker 1: that has to do with stopping Russian aggression, Trump got 436 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 1: it right, and Obama and all of his so called 437 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:52,879 Speaker 1: experts on Ukraine couldn't get it done. And you could say, well, 438 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,880 Speaker 1: buckets Obama's choice. They couldn't override him. Well, they really 439 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 1: couldn't convince him of this one. Did they try that hard? 440 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:03,399 Speaker 1: Because it mattered a lot. But you won't hear that, 441 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:09,359 Speaker 1: will you? That Trump policy is more pro Ukrainian where 442 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 1: it counts and how it matters, just like you won't 443 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:17,440 Speaker 1: hear about how Trump was the one who blew up 444 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:21,679 Speaker 1: a couple of hundred Russian mercenaries in the desert for 445 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:25,480 Speaker 1: attacking our Kurdish allies. But all the Kurds abandoned. We've 446 00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 1: abandoned all the Kurds. They're all the whole Middle East 447 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:31,439 Speaker 1: is gonna be a war in genocide, Remember all that stuff. 448 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 1: When was the last time you heard about the courts, folks? 449 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 1: Is there a genocide happening? No, oh no, Buck, you're not. 450 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 1: You don't that's it could have any day now, it's 451 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:43,919 Speaker 1: gonna happen. Well, if you wait long enough in the 452 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:47,480 Speaker 1: Middle East, in any region, there's gonna be violence to 453 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:49,880 Speaker 1: speak of. So I just can I get a timeline 454 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:53,119 Speaker 1: here for when Trump pulling fifty US soldiers out of 455 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:54,920 Speaker 1: one part of a country that's been in the midst 456 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 1: of a civil war that's killed five hundred thousand people. 457 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: Can we get a timeline for when that was clearly 458 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:04,160 Speaker 1: not the most catastrophic, horrible decision ever made in foreign policy? 459 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:07,360 Speaker 1: Because I think we're already there, folks, But oh my gosh, 460 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 1: Isis is gonna rebound? Really? Ice is gonna rebound because 461 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:12,960 Speaker 1: the Assad regime and the Russians and the Turks they 462 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: all have an interest in Well, the Turks it's a 463 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 1: little a little more complicated, but the Assad regime and 464 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 1: the Russians, they don't want an Isis resurgence. Do we 465 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,159 Speaker 1: want them to be fighting Isis? Or do we want 466 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 1: to be fighting Isis? You know, this is the people 467 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 1: think that they've studied and understood the Middle East, and 468 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 1: they forget that it's the people who live there who 469 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 1: have to ultimately do the fighting. We can't be doing 470 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 1: it for them. We're not going to stay forever, although 471 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 1: people seem to want to do that in Afghanistan. I 472 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:44,160 Speaker 1: just I just note on different areas of foreign policy, 473 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:47,680 Speaker 1: the narrative is never to give credit for Donald Trump 474 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:51,240 Speaker 1: on things where he clearly has been better than his predecessor. 475 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 1: And there's there's no question, there's no question that he's 476 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:57,360 Speaker 1: been better than predecessor Barack Obama in fighting the Islamic State. 477 00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,479 Speaker 1: Just look at the numbers looking out rapidly ISIS got 478 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 1: rolled up in Syria. And also by the way that 479 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 1: we can stop calling it isol. Robama I wanted to 480 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:09,160 Speaker 1: call it Isil. We're gonna stop him or stop him 481 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:13,160 Speaker 1: Isisol's bat. We're just like, why are we calling them isol? 482 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 1: No one called them that. Obama called him that and 483 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 1: his executive branch. And I know this because I had 484 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 1: friends and the Intel community who were telling me that 485 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 1: it was It was isol was what they were insisting 486 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:26,040 Speaker 1: on calling it. Wrestling nine percent of the rest of 487 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:28,160 Speaker 1: the worlds like isis. Let's just keep it simple here. 488 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:33,159 Speaker 1: Irakan Syria, not Irakan Sham, the Greater Levant Area. It 489 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 1: was all just I had said this. All people had 490 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 1: this whole theory about how it was about Israel and negating. No, no, no, 491 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 1: it was just trying to be pedantic. They were just 492 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 1: trying to show, you know, that was a It was 493 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 1: a little thing meant to indicate that the person using 494 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 1: isol instead of Isis was really more knowledgeable about the 495 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,480 Speaker 1: situation over there. You know, I even knew some people 496 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:56,239 Speaker 1: are calling it dash because they wanted to use the 497 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:58,959 Speaker 1: Arabic acronym. And then I'd say, do you speak Arabic 498 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 1: because the answers no, I don't think you should using 499 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:07,159 Speaker 1: the Arabic acronym for it speak American. So here we 500 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 1: have the Ukraine policy disputed playing out again. We find 501 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 1: out that the another day of this, we find out 502 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:16,680 Speaker 1: that Ivanovitch, now that I say the name properly, apparently 503 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 1: I'm really having fun with it, had contacted a Democrat 504 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 1: staffer in a timeline and in a way well one 505 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 1: that which is a strange thing to do. Why would 506 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 1: this person the state department have content with the Democrat 507 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 1: staff from the hell I worked for the CIA for 508 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:35,879 Speaker 1: five years. I never never just wrote some email to 509 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 1: a Now this is a state department person. And I'm 510 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 1: just saying, why would somebody who's in the federal government 511 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 1: in this way just fire off an email to a 512 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:49,880 Speaker 1: staffer about the sensitive matter. M Right, curious, isn't it. Oh, 513 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 1: but the journals out there are not going to dig 514 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: into this one. No, no, no, no reason to dig 515 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 1: into this one. Why would they want to do that? 516 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,080 Speaker 1: My friend. What I've been saying to you all along 517 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 1: is increasingly going to be obviously the case, and that 518 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 1: is that they'd use this that really, the whole Ukraine 519 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 1: thing was just meant to get the impeachment proceedings start. 520 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 1: It was the excuse to start it. The I think 521 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:23,840 Speaker 1: what you're gonna find is that this impeachment situation eats 522 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 1: a little bit like pretending that General Flynn violated the 523 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 1: Logan Act so you can get him on which note 524 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 1: was just not serious. There's no real charge there and 525 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,240 Speaker 1: it would never happen. But they really wanted to get 526 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 1: him online or you know whatever, just to trap him 527 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:42,160 Speaker 1: and say, oh, it's such a serious crime to a 528 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 1: lot of the FBI. Oh they changed is three h 529 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 1: two by the way, they had Lisa Page that they've 530 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:49,680 Speaker 1: now this has been admitted, and I know I'm jumping 531 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 1: around here, but it's Friday, so it's my party, and 532 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:58,040 Speaker 1: I'll jump around if I want to. Lisa Page, the 533 00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 1: lawyer with Strok, the ones that will go on trum 534 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 1: Trump is gonna be president. I can smell the Trump 535 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 1: supporters though we're Hillary voters. Hillary is great. And anybody 536 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 1: who thinks that Hillary is some fantastic person and that 537 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:11,520 Speaker 1: that alone is reason to vote for her over Trump. 538 00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 1: I mean, you gotta be kidding me, right, Oh yeah, Hillary, 539 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 1: paragon of virtue, great person. People I know who have 540 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:19,960 Speaker 1: spent a lot of time around to say, she's not 541 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 1: even she's not even nice, she's not even a nice person. 542 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:26,200 Speaker 1: But oh yeah, she's one. He's great. It's wonderful. Vote 543 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:31,240 Speaker 1: for her. So, Lisa Page, the senior FBI lawyer changed 544 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 1: the three you know, had some hand in editing General 545 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:36,400 Speaker 1: Flint's three O two. And now the position of the 546 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:40,200 Speaker 1: federal government involved in this prosecution. These prosecutors who remember 547 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 1: they want to it's often partisan, but also within the 548 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 1: federal federal bureaucracy there are people who just want to 549 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 1: defend the institution at all costs, so that can also 550 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:53,880 Speaker 1: factor into this. But they change Flint's three O two 551 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 1: and now we're being told, well, he pleaded guilty, though well, yeah, 552 00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 1: maybe he wouldn't have pleaded guilty. If you know, if 553 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 1: the cops show up, they sit down, they're like, hey, 554 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: you better take a player, you know, the prosecutor rather 555 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 1: sit down and say, hey, you better take a plea 556 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 1: because we have a we have a signed confession with 557 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 1: your signature on it. And you're like, wait, what, I 558 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 1: don't remember signing that. They're like, yeah, you just you 559 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,960 Speaker 1: walked in here and we have video of you and 560 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 1: you signed it. And maybe you were you know, I 561 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:20,240 Speaker 1: don't know, maybe you're drunk or something, you're high, but 562 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:22,480 Speaker 1: you signed this thing. Here's a signed confession and it's 563 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:25,960 Speaker 1: already been you know, maybe at that point you'd say, okay, 564 00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:28,680 Speaker 1: I guess I have to take a plea deal here, right, 565 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 1: what's your other? And then if you found it after, 566 00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 1: it's oh no, it's fake. Right, you didn't sign this, 567 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:36,320 Speaker 1: You weren't sleepwalking and signed a confession. Shouldn't you be 568 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 1: able to retract that plea deal? I mean, that would 569 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:42,240 Speaker 1: seem to be a logical, unjust approach, but they're not 570 00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 1: looking for logical injust here they set up General Flynn. 571 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 1: I mean General Flynn should be all charges. I mean, rather, 572 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 1: the whole case against him should be dropped. He should 573 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 1: be exonerated, The whole thing should go away. It's it's 574 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:56,280 Speaker 1: a disgrace. It's a disgrace to our justice system, the 575 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:58,200 Speaker 1: whole thing. But then again, so was the mother prope. 576 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:02,600 Speaker 1: So at this point, much more justice system disgrace can 577 00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:05,600 Speaker 1: we take before we say enough is enough. Oh but 578 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:08,600 Speaker 1: speaking of perjury, see I'm bringing it back now, bringing 579 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:09,960 Speaker 1: it back full circle is how we roll here in 580 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:16,520 Speaker 1: the Freedom unt. Speaking of full circle, why is Ivanovitch 581 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 1: able to lie under oath? I mean that seems to 582 00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 1: be what has been admitted here, that she did have contact. 583 00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 1: Representative Zelden said, it is greatly concerning that Ambassadory Ivanovitch 584 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:31,360 Speaker 1: didn't answer my question as honestly as she should have, 585 00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:36,400 Speaker 1: especially under oath. Roger Stone right now is in a 586 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:40,240 Speaker 1: trial for lying apparently the FBI or you know, allegedly 587 00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:44,560 Speaker 1: lying to federal authorities about non crimes that no one 588 00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:47,160 Speaker 1: really doesn't matter, they don't mean anything. They want to 589 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 1: send him to prison though for years. So if roger 590 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 1: Stone can get sent to prison for lying, you know, 591 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,800 Speaker 1: under oath or lying to federal authorities. If General Flynn, 592 00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 1: after thirty years of military service could get sent to 593 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 1: prison for long, is Ambassador Ivanovitch oh, because she's hashtag 594 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:05,120 Speaker 1: resistance and we all know it is that why she 595 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:09,640 Speaker 1: doesn't get in trouble for this. One of the biggest 596 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 1: threats we often hear from the Democrats. We hear from 597 00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:15,840 Speaker 1: them about how there's such an undermining of our institutions. 598 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:20,760 Speaker 1: One of the biggest threats to the integrity of our 599 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:25,480 Speaker 1: institutions of government is the growing perception. And it's real, 600 00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:29,400 Speaker 1: and it is rooted in reality, a growing perception that 601 00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 1: we have a two tiered justice system, one for people 602 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:35,840 Speaker 1: on the right and one for people on the left. 603 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:39,400 Speaker 1: It's a big problem. I never heard any discussion in 604 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 1: my entire ten year as vice president about the twenty 605 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 1: fifth Amendment, And why would I The very notion of 606 00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 1: this anonymous who wrote an editorial now it's reported that 607 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:55,880 Speaker 1: they've written the book is just appalling to me. If 608 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 1: there's someone in our administration or serving our administration that 609 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,880 Speaker 1: does support this president, doesn't support his agenda, they should 610 00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 1: do the honorable thing in the sign. Isn't that pretty 611 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,279 Speaker 1: straightforward from the Vice president there. If there's somebody who 612 00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:10,960 Speaker 1: really thinks that President Trump is a danger to the Republic, 613 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 1: a danger to all of us, shouldn't they not work 614 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:16,360 Speaker 1: for him and go out in public and say what 615 00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,839 Speaker 1: needs to be said. But look at look at Anthony Scaramuccies. 616 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:21,880 Speaker 1: He's some brave truth teller. I mean, we know that 617 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 1: he got on the outs with Trump Nolvis on the 618 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,840 Speaker 1: Mooch's like, hey, Trump's the worst. I hate him, He's terrible. 619 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 1: I remember the mooch going on. I sat next to 620 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:32,200 Speaker 1: him once, said on a Fox Business show, and he was, mister, 621 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 1: you know, Donald Trump is amazing, and he's going to 622 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 1: transform politics in this country. And he has a brilliant, 623 00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:44,000 Speaker 1: genius level instinct for understanding American politics. And I mean, 624 00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:46,000 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, he's not White House 625 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 1: Comms directord morning. He's yeah, Trump's the worst ever, He's terrible. 626 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:52,360 Speaker 1: But is the mooch so brave? Is everyone is the 627 00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:54,920 Speaker 1: mooch in danger because he criticizes Trump. Why can't the 628 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:59,760 Speaker 1: whistleblowers come out? So maybe I will call myself Christian genius, 629 00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:03,759 Speaker 1: Christian billionaire genius buck Sexton, because I kind of like 630 00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:07,239 Speaker 1: the sound of that. Although only one of those three 631 00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:13,680 Speaker 1: things is true, you can probably all guess which one. 632 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:16,640 Speaker 1: But that's what Kanye West has been telling people. He 633 00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:18,400 Speaker 1: might change his name too. He's also saying he might 634 00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:22,360 Speaker 1: run for president in I think twenty twenty or twenty 635 00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:24,680 Speaker 1: twenty four. I'm actually not sure which one it is, 636 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:27,360 Speaker 1: but I like the I like the sound of Christian 637 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:29,520 Speaker 1: billionaire genius buck Sexton. That would be kind of fun. 638 00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:32,319 Speaker 1: At least gives me something to aspire to. I could 639 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:35,400 Speaker 1: earn the name after calling myself a name down the line. 640 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:39,239 Speaker 1: I also just wanted to point out something that you're 641 00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 1: not going to hear, because you know, I feel like 642 00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:42,880 Speaker 1: I have to upate you on some of the latest 643 00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:49,920 Speaker 1: on this situation with you know, all of these all 644 00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 1: these different people who are coming forward to speak about impeachment, 645 00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 1: these different ambassadors. Well, here's one, a career guy named 646 00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:02,279 Speaker 1: George Kent. Now Kent, he said some stuff that was not, 647 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:06,239 Speaker 1: you know, helpful for the Trump side of things. Right. 648 00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:10,880 Speaker 1: He said that the president's personal attorney sought to manipulate 649 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 1: US policy on McRae, on Ukraine and Alice Foreign Ambassador 650 00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:18,320 Speaker 1: Marie Ivanovitch guess what the president kid said and whoever 651 00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:20,960 Speaker 1: he wants to do whatever he wants on foreign policy. 652 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:25,640 Speaker 1: The president gets to do foreign policy. All these bureaucrats 653 00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:28,640 Speaker 1: you don't like. Remember, bureaucrats don't like President Trump's foreign 654 00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:31,640 Speaker 1: policy on Ukraine or they're they're concerned about what he's 655 00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:34,239 Speaker 1: going to do about it. Meanwhile, thanks to President Trump, 656 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:36,440 Speaker 1: they actually have missiles to stop the Russian tanks from 657 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:41,080 Speaker 1: running over their brothers in trench warfare in eastern Ukraine. Right, 658 00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 1: So who's the good guy here? I just all the bureaucrats, 659 00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:50,479 Speaker 1: the stuffy buik are working so art on this issue. Please, 660 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:53,160 Speaker 1: I see, I know these people I worked, the kind 661 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:55,560 Speaker 1: of people that do all the grandstanding about how important 662 00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:57,479 Speaker 1: they are and how much the you know, we mattered, 663 00:36:57,560 --> 00:36:59,759 Speaker 1: the US foreign policy matters. The self importance of the 664 00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:02,880 Speaker 1: State Department is just I'm going to be honest, it's 665 00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:09,239 Speaker 1: just vomit inducing. It's always The State Department could be 666 00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:13,960 Speaker 1: a fifth of its current size, and if you just 667 00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:17,120 Speaker 1: had good people who worked hard and got things done, 668 00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 1: everything would be fine. He could be twenty percent of 669 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 1: its current size and we would not the country would 670 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,160 Speaker 1: not be in dire straight. We might have like a 671 00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:29,800 Speaker 1: few less unnecessary you know, agricultural training programs in countries 672 00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:31,600 Speaker 1: that you know are not thankful for the help we 673 00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:36,839 Speaker 1: give them anyway. George Cann who's this and he's this 674 00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:41,600 Speaker 1: guy who is a lifelong bureaucrat for the State Department. 675 00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:44,840 Speaker 1: Here's what he had to say in testimony. This is 676 00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:46,960 Speaker 1: you know now the test was coming out. Question and 677 00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:50,440 Speaker 1: anytime was there discussion of perceived conflicts of interest either 678 00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:54,720 Speaker 1: in the part of the Vice President Biden or his son. Answer? 679 00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:56,640 Speaker 1: You're talking about a period leading up to his visit 680 00:37:56,680 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 1: in December twenty fifteen. Well, Hunter Biden, he first support 681 00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:03,040 Speaker 1: that he was on the board in mid twenty fourteen. Correct, 682 00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:06,400 Speaker 1: And the Vice President's involvement with Ukraine is pretty significant 683 00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:08,600 Speaker 1: at that point in time, and it remained until he 684 00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 1: through twenty sixteen. Correct. Yes, And the question was, you know, 685 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:15,640 Speaker 1: were there any discussions of a perceived conflict of interest 686 00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:18,040 Speaker 1: on the part of either Hunter Biden or the Vice 687 00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:20,840 Speaker 1: President when I was the first time I was in 688 00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:23,240 Speaker 1: Ukraine as acting Deputy Chief of Mission in the period 689 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:26,319 Speaker 1: of mid January to mid February twenty fifteen, subsequent to 690 00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:29,560 Speaker 1: me going into the Deputy Prosecutor General on February third, 691 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:32,040 Speaker 1: and demanding who took the bribe and how much it 692 00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:36,240 Speaker 1: was to shut the case down against Zlotchevsky. I became 693 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:38,839 Speaker 1: aware that Hunter Biden was on the board. I did 694 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:42,160 Speaker 1: not know that at the time. And when I was 695 00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:44,560 Speaker 1: on a call with somebody on the Vice President's staff 696 00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 1: and I cannot recall who it was, just briefing on 697 00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:50,120 Speaker 1: what was happening in Ukraine, I raised my concerns that 698 00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:52,000 Speaker 1: I had heard that Hunter Biden was on the board 699 00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:54,600 Speaker 1: of a company owned by somebody that the US government 700 00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 1: had spent money trying to get tens of millions of 701 00:38:56,960 --> 00:39:01,719 Speaker 1: dollars back, and that could create the perception of a 702 00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:11,360 Speaker 1: conflict of interest. Oh you don't say, hm, Hunter Biden 703 00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:18,040 Speaker 1: conflict of interest daddy running Ukraine foreign policy? Huh? This 704 00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:22,080 Speaker 1: State Department guy's putting all the puzzle pieces together, isn't 705 00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:25,719 Speaker 1: he question? And what did the person the other end 706 00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:28,640 Speaker 1: of the line tell you. Remember this is a State 707 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:34,080 Speaker 1: Department person talking about raising to the Vice President's staff 708 00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:37,640 Speaker 1: the problem of Hunter Biden. Here's what we said. The 709 00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:39,919 Speaker 1: message that I recall hearing back was that the Vice 710 00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:42,600 Speaker 1: President's son Bo was dying of cancer, and there was 711 00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:45,719 Speaker 1: no further bandwidth to deal with family related issues at 712 00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:48,560 Speaker 1: that time. Was that pretty much the end of it? 713 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:52,440 Speaker 1: That was the end of that conversation. Okay, that was 714 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,360 Speaker 1: in mid twenty fifteen. That would have been in February, 715 00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:58,240 Speaker 1: because the best of my recollection, bo Biden died that spring. 716 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:01,600 Speaker 1: I then returned to you Ukraine in August of twenty fifteen, 717 00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:04,280 Speaker 1: and I believe he passed before then. So the only 718 00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:06,319 Speaker 1: time that conversation could have happened is in the narrow 719 00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:11,360 Speaker 1: window between January February twenty fifteen and subsequent to that. 720 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:13,440 Speaker 1: Did you ever think through with other State Department officials 721 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:15,920 Speaker 1: about whether we should try to get Hunter Biden to 722 00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:17,839 Speaker 1: leave the board, or maybe we should get the Vice 723 00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:21,200 Speaker 1: President to transition his key responsibilities on Ukraine to some 724 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:24,960 Speaker 1: other US official. No, it's easy in a conference room 725 00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:27,880 Speaker 1: like this to have a considered discussion about things in Ukraine. 726 00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 1: At that time, we had a war with Russia occupation. 727 00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:32,000 Speaker 1: We had an embassy staff going from one hundred and 728 00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:34,880 Speaker 1: fifty to two hundred fifty Americans from no special forces 729 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:37,440 Speaker 1: US government soldiers to close to seventy in country. Our 730 00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:39,799 Speaker 1: assistance went from one hundred and thirty million to nearly 731 00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:43,760 Speaker 1: a billion, and we were working nearly NonStop. Ambassador Piat 732 00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:45,600 Speaker 1: I can tell you from working for him, would wake 733 00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:48,160 Speaker 1: up between four fifty and five oh one am because 734 00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:50,400 Speaker 1: that's when I got the first email from him and 735 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:53,840 Speaker 1: went to bed, because that's when I'm blah blah blah. Okay, yeah, NonStop. 736 00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:55,560 Speaker 1: Twenty hours a day, seven days a week. Right, no 737 00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 1: one's ever worked as hard in the history of the universe, 738 00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:03,399 Speaker 1: is these particular diplomats do. I was in war zones 739 00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:05,239 Speaker 1: with the federal government too, folks. I know what really 740 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 1: goes on. So yeah, all these State department guys twenty 741 00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:16,560 Speaker 1: hours a day, seven days a week. Sure. Anyway, the 742 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:18,920 Speaker 1: real reason I'm reading this transcript portion to you is 743 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:21,960 Speaker 1: just so we're all clear. The media's, oh, I don't 744 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:24,319 Speaker 1: think there's anything wrong with Hunter Biden being on the 745 00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:27,800 Speaker 1: board of the company is just feigned stupidity. Nobody's that dumb. 746 00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:33,080 Speaker 1: Everybody knows that what Hunter Biden did was gross and 747 00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:37,759 Speaker 1: gross enough that there would be justification to look into 748 00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:42,040 Speaker 1: whether there was actual corruption, abuse of power, you could say, 749 00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:45,839 Speaker 1: by Joe Biden on behalf of his son in these circumstances, 750 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 1: you could at least justify an investigation of it. But 751 00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:54,719 Speaker 1: instead what we have is an entire media apparatus that 752 00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:58,880 Speaker 1: is anti Trump, just willing to look really dumb because 753 00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:00,799 Speaker 1: it's easier to look dumb than have to explain this 754 00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:06,600 Speaker 1: stuff to the American people. They'd rather pretend. And speaking 755 00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:08,880 Speaker 1: of looking dumb, I mean, I have said this before. 756 00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:12,200 Speaker 1: I do believe, and there's some there's some competition, for sure, 757 00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:16,279 Speaker 1: but I think that Senator Mazie Horono is, based on 758 00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:20,560 Speaker 1: her public utterances, the dumbest elected official in the United 759 00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:24,200 Speaker 1: States Congress. I think that that's probably that's a there's 760 00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:25,920 Speaker 1: a strong case to be made that she said the 761 00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:29,160 Speaker 1: dumbest things of anybody in Congress. I'm just this is 762 00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:34,440 Speaker 1: just one man's opinion. I tend to be right. Here's 763 00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:40,280 Speaker 1: what she says, though, about this whole situation. Play seventeen. 764 00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 1: Please the whistle lords complained, which first brought to light 765 00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:48,480 Speaker 1: that the President engaged in this kind of what it 766 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:52,719 Speaker 1: turns out to be cripocal, has been collaborated by Taylor 767 00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:57,560 Speaker 1: by others. And so here's the Republicans, you know, they 768 00:42:57,600 --> 00:43:00,480 Speaker 1: just can't deal with a substance of what the present did. 769 00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:05,000 Speaker 1: So they're doing all kinds of things so to muddy 770 00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:08,840 Speaker 1: the waters. They can't deal with the substance, so they 771 00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:10,920 Speaker 1: want them under the waters. We've dealt with the substance 772 00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:14,640 Speaker 1: every day for weeks now. Substance isn't changing. We know 773 00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:16,440 Speaker 1: what the substance is. We know it's set on the 774 00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:21,640 Speaker 1: phone call. Perceptions of policy from bureaucrats from the period 775 00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:24,120 Speaker 1: of time and question. I don't care, it doesn't matter. 776 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:27,319 Speaker 1: They're not telling us about anything that we need to 777 00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:31,600 Speaker 1: know from them, especially because there's this irony that Trump's 778 00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:33,960 Speaker 1: policy on Ukraine was better for Ukraine that Obama's and 779 00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:37,040 Speaker 1: all these people who work together, but there's all this connection. 780 00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:40,920 Speaker 1: By the way, they think now that Scaramella may have 781 00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:43,960 Speaker 1: traveled I believe with Biden to Ukraine. I think I 782 00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:46,120 Speaker 1: saw that in the Washington Examiner. I mean, this was 783 00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:49,959 Speaker 1: like a it was like a cabal of Obama era 784 00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:51,839 Speaker 1: officials that had one view of what should be going 785 00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:56,040 Speaker 1: on in Ukraine. And there's also this question about CrowdStrike 786 00:43:56,840 --> 00:44:01,000 Speaker 1: and whether you know why was CrowdStrike, which is Ukrainian funded, 787 00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:03,520 Speaker 1: the only group that ever looked into the DNC server 788 00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:06,840 Speaker 1: and the FBI never actually examined the service. Is that 789 00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:09,720 Speaker 1: a crazy thing to ask? Can I get an answer 790 00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:12,440 Speaker 1: about this? They're gonna ask a private entity that's Ukrainian funded. 791 00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:14,200 Speaker 1: I mean, that's why Trump brought that up on the call. 792 00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:17,480 Speaker 1: And maybe there's maybe there's nothing to it. But you 793 00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:20,120 Speaker 1: see with Democrats, they think if they just shout loud 794 00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:23,800 Speaker 1: enough and they're shrill and nasty enough, they can prevent 795 00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:26,919 Speaker 1: people from just doing fact finding. How about we find 796 00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:29,080 Speaker 1: out what happened. Wouldn't that be a good thing to do. 797 00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:32,760 Speaker 1: We had to sit here and be lectured by crazy 798 00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:37,120 Speaker 1: libs for over two years about how oh, the special 799 00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:39,840 Speaker 1: counsel this is all by the book, this is all legitimate. No, 800 00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:42,799 Speaker 1: it's all crap. The whole thing was garbage, and I 801 00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:45,840 Speaker 1: was saying, along is right all along. It was a 802 00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:50,000 Speaker 1: conspiracy to take down a president. And if there was 803 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:53,719 Speaker 1: anything that they could have produced, trust me, they would 804 00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:57,520 Speaker 1: have because they went through everybody. Nobody got the benefit 805 00:44:57,560 --> 00:44:59,600 Speaker 1: of the doubt in that process process, crimes were thrown 806 00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:02,120 Speaker 1: at people left and right, turned up the heat on people, 807 00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:06,920 Speaker 1: did real financial and psychological damage to lower level staffers 808 00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:08,800 Speaker 1: in the White House who had to just get lawyers 809 00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:10,480 Speaker 1: and deal with sleepless nights because they had to go 810 00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 1: in for you know, with Muller and his team knowing 811 00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:14,040 Speaker 1: that if they you know, lied about what they had 812 00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:16,040 Speaker 1: for breakfast yesterday, they're going to get thrown in prison. 813 00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:18,959 Speaker 1: It's just crazy. Oh, but we can't find out about 814 00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:21,520 Speaker 1: anything Ukraine related. That would be that would be terrible. 815 00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:24,680 Speaker 1: Let's also understand even if let's say that there was 816 00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:29,040 Speaker 1: an announcement about this has gotten skipped over by everybody here. 817 00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:31,960 Speaker 1: Let's just say that with the quid pro quo, Oh, 818 00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:34,440 Speaker 1: the quid pro quo, Let's just say for a second 819 00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:38,680 Speaker 1: that it was followed through with or it really did happen, 820 00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:42,360 Speaker 1: meaning that Zelenski announced that there was an investigation into 821 00:45:43,600 --> 00:45:47,480 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden, Joe Biden, that whole situation. So let's assume 822 00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:51,480 Speaker 1: that that actually was going on. That would be like 823 00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:54,600 Speaker 1: a two day news cycle, the announcement of an investigation. 824 00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:57,560 Speaker 1: You know what, all the Democrats would say, there's nothing there, 825 00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:01,320 Speaker 1: it's a part of an investigation. Who cares, They're not 826 00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:03,560 Speaker 1: going to show up with anything. And if they didn't 827 00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:06,840 Speaker 1: get anything from the investigation, that would be it. You know, 828 00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:09,600 Speaker 1: the way that people are talking about this on the left. 829 00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:13,040 Speaker 1: It's like it's like Donald Trump said, Hey, we're going 830 00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:15,560 Speaker 1: to arrange for like hunter Biden to travel to Ukraine 831 00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:17,160 Speaker 1: and can you guys throw him in prison and like 832 00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:20,400 Speaker 1: never let him get trial. You know, that's not what happened, 833 00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:26,280 Speaker 1: the way that the hysteria, Oh to invest foreign interference 834 00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:29,520 Speaker 1: by investigating your opponent, Even if that had happened, Okay, 835 00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:33,080 Speaker 1: even if if that had gone through, does anyone really 836 00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:36,399 Speaker 1: think that Democrats would have stopped supporting Joe Biden? Where 837 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:38,480 Speaker 1: there's a joke right of me, like they're gonna all 838 00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:41,040 Speaker 1: of this sud be like, oh, well, because they're investigating 839 00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:44,560 Speaker 1: this Ukraine situation. I guess Trump wins the election, and 840 00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:46,759 Speaker 1: now you might say, oh, what about those independents? And 841 00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:49,759 Speaker 1: that's where it will really matter. Okay, but guess what. 842 00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:53,680 Speaker 1: Politics is a rough business. And Donald Trump is currently 843 00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:56,799 Speaker 1: has gone through a criminal proceeding meant to take him down, 844 00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:59,520 Speaker 1: that was based on lies for two years, and now 845 00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:03,400 Speaker 1: is going political proceeding meant to destroy his presidency, and 846 00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:06,239 Speaker 1: yet they still haven't been able to stop him. So 847 00:47:07,239 --> 00:47:11,719 Speaker 1: maybe this is going through this gauntlet is I think 848 00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:14,320 Speaker 1: forging him as an even stronger candidate in this whole process, 849 00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:19,759 Speaker 1: or a stronger president, somebody who is just unflappable. I mean, 850 00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:22,680 Speaker 1: you cannot, you cannot keep this guy, keep this guy down. 851 00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:25,640 Speaker 1: It's really remarkable. So just some some additional thoughts on this. 852 00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:28,160 Speaker 1: You know, where I have more more bureaucrats, more people 853 00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:30,919 Speaker 1: are gonna come out from a state department and they'll 854 00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:34,680 Speaker 1: be targeted, leagues of different information. But it's all telling us. 855 00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:36,560 Speaker 1: This is why amazing heronaus thing I think is such 856 00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:39,200 Speaker 1: garbage because the substance, we already know what the substance is. 857 00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:42,200 Speaker 1: They just keep trying to say, hey, but do you 858 00:47:42,200 --> 00:47:44,439 Speaker 1: see this thing that happened that he said on the Yeah, 859 00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:47,759 Speaker 1: we know I don't care, not going to care that. 860 00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:49,719 Speaker 1: They're not going to make me care by repeating it 861 00:47:49,880 --> 00:47:52,200 Speaker 1: every day, which seems to be the plan as well 862 00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:54,719 Speaker 1: as I said, they're gonna switch. They're gonna switch into 863 00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:57,080 Speaker 1: something else because this isn't gonna cut it. It's just 864 00:47:57,120 --> 00:48:00,319 Speaker 1: not enough, it's not it's not damaging and off this 865 00:48:00,400 --> 00:48:02,919 Speaker 1: narrative that they've concocted, it's not going to get it done. 866 00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:05,319 Speaker 1: If you held a vote today in the House, would 867 00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:08,000 Speaker 1: you vote to impeate this president impeach this president. Well, 868 00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:11,160 Speaker 1: that question I won't answer because I do have to 869 00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:14,040 Speaker 1: keep an open mind and an appearance of an open mind. 870 00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:17,879 Speaker 1: I have said that the evidence is pretty damning. Oh yeah, 871 00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:21,040 Speaker 1: he's keeping an open mind, all right, noddler there, No, 872 00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:24,880 Speaker 1: it would't it wouldn' vote impeach the president, right of course. Not, 873 00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:29,640 Speaker 1: no way, no way you would do that. I mean, 874 00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:32,040 Speaker 1: come on, this is what This is one of the 875 00:48:32,080 --> 00:48:33,840 Speaker 1: things that bothered me so much about Democrats, like they 876 00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:38,800 Speaker 1: will resume as soon that we're all so stupid. Yeah, sure, sure, 877 00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:41,000 Speaker 1: he's he's still waiting to see that evidence come in 878 00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:43,480 Speaker 1: before he makes up his mind. You know, same thing 879 00:48:43,520 --> 00:48:45,799 Speaker 1: with like you know, Pelosi and Shift and all the rest. 880 00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:47,680 Speaker 1: And they're still waiting for the evidence. This is all 881 00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:50,760 Speaker 1: based in the facts. This isn't This isn't a political 882 00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:56,239 Speaker 1: narrative that's driving their perception of the facts. It really is. 883 00:48:57,640 --> 00:49:02,640 Speaker 1: It really is stunning to them, just the dishonesty and 884 00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:07,840 Speaker 1: the the disingenuousness of all of this. And I would 885 00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:12,600 Speaker 1: like to think, I would like to believe that the 886 00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:15,480 Speaker 1: American people understand really what's going on. Enough. I had 887 00:49:15,480 --> 00:49:16,840 Speaker 1: to say enough America, beause there are a lot of 888 00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:21,720 Speaker 1: forty eight forty five percent of the country. I really 889 00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:27,000 Speaker 1: believe this wouldn't care if Donald Trump were being impeached 890 00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:31,919 Speaker 1: based on evidence that they knew to be fraudulent, they 891 00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:35,920 Speaker 1: would not That wouldn't bother them if they were, if 892 00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:39,600 Speaker 1: they knew that they somebody had, you know, fabricated. I'm 893 00:49:39,640 --> 00:49:41,880 Speaker 1: in and I can't really walk you through how this 894 00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:44,319 Speaker 1: analogy would work, but I'm just saying if they they 895 00:49:44,320 --> 00:49:45,960 Speaker 1: don't know, they don't care what it is. Forty to 896 00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:48,600 Speaker 1: forty five percent of the country of the voting public, 897 00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:52,840 Speaker 1: all Democrats obviously, they just want Trump gone. It doesn't 898 00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:55,920 Speaker 1: matter what it is. It doesn't matter what the explanation, 899 00:49:56,080 --> 00:49:58,560 Speaker 1: the explanations and the process and all. This is just 900 00:49:58,680 --> 00:50:02,720 Speaker 1: trying to hope to get republic looking defectors and create 901 00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:06,200 Speaker 1: enough support among independents that the Democrats have a shot 902 00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:09,560 Speaker 1: at regatting more power in the next election. But I mean, 903 00:50:09,640 --> 00:50:12,279 Speaker 1: the Democrats, this is all They're not sitting around, you know, 904 00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:14,839 Speaker 1: none of the leftist none of the psychopaths who are 905 00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:16,680 Speaker 1: protesting the event I went to last night. I mean, 906 00:50:16,680 --> 00:50:18,800 Speaker 1: none of these people are sitting around saying, wow, I 907 00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:21,800 Speaker 1: really don't know if Donald Trump should be impeach, we 908 00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:27,440 Speaker 1: need to let the process play out. Yeah, sure, sure. 909 00:50:27,560 --> 00:50:29,480 Speaker 1: Remember that was what they were saying about Mueller until 910 00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:31,840 Speaker 1: Muller didn't give them what they wanted, and then it was, oh, Muller, 911 00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:36,080 Speaker 1: move right to impeachment right away. These people are nuts, 912 00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:41,080 Speaker 1: by the way. Senator John Kennedy he he had some 913 00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:43,719 Speaker 1: thoughts on what Pelosi is doing here. Really what the 914 00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:47,319 Speaker 1: precedent is that Nancy Pelosi is setting, Prince Mark, could 915 00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:50,759 Speaker 1: you play clip five please? She is going to elevate 916 00:50:50,920 --> 00:50:55,320 Speaker 1: partisan impeachment to the new normal, so that hymns fourth. 917 00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:58,560 Speaker 1: When we have a new president and we will have 918 00:50:58,600 --> 00:51:03,279 Speaker 1: a democratic president day, many Republicans are going to feel 919 00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:08,280 Speaker 1: obligated to impeach the democratic president because they don't agree 920 00:51:08,680 --> 00:51:12,359 Speaker 1: with his or her politics. And I don't think that's right. 921 00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:16,200 Speaker 1: I just don't think that's try. It's a little bit 922 00:51:16,239 --> 00:51:19,040 Speaker 1: like the the nullification that can happen in states when 923 00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:21,839 Speaker 1: if you just get a private enough private interest groups 924 00:51:21,880 --> 00:51:25,760 Speaker 1: together or just interest groups who want to recall somebody, 925 00:51:25,800 --> 00:51:31,080 Speaker 1: you know, recall elections, well you know what a total recall. 926 00:51:31,120 --> 00:51:33,520 Speaker 1: The original was actually a pretty good, watchful movie. The 927 00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:36,560 Speaker 1: remake was terrible, which made me sad. You know why 928 00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:40,719 Speaker 1: made me sad, Producer Mark Why because Jessica Bill was 929 00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:43,560 Speaker 1: in it, I believe before she married justin Timberlake, so 930 00:51:43,560 --> 00:51:45,320 Speaker 1: she was still in the market at that time, so 931 00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:49,360 Speaker 1: there was hope. And now you're you have no hope anymore. 932 00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:52,000 Speaker 1: I mean once she married somebody like Timberlake, I mean 933 00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:57,960 Speaker 1: even I think he's dreamy fair point. Yeah, I mean 934 00:51:58,120 --> 00:52:00,960 Speaker 1: he wasn't even good in the social network, which which 935 00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:05,000 Speaker 1: was pretty oppressive. So anyway, I think that recall elections, 936 00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:07,600 Speaker 1: for example, can be a way where yeah, I mean, 937 00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:09,920 Speaker 1: if someone's doing horrible, I understand why it exists. But 938 00:52:10,239 --> 00:52:14,319 Speaker 1: you know, it's a little bit like jury nullification. Nullification 939 00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:17,839 Speaker 1: is a real thing. It's also an extreme thing. It's 940 00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:22,160 Speaker 1: also should be a last resort, and impeaching a president 941 00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:26,440 Speaker 1: should be a last resort as well. And anyone who 942 00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:28,239 Speaker 1: is telling you that this what's going right now with 943 00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:31,239 Speaker 1: President Trump is a last resort is a liar. It's 944 00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:34,240 Speaker 1: just not they've been wanting to do this all along. 945 00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:38,239 Speaker 1: It's all pretextual. It's all based on some excuse that 946 00:52:38,239 --> 00:52:40,200 Speaker 1: they'll find in order to make it seem like they 947 00:52:40,239 --> 00:52:42,000 Speaker 1: haven't been trying to do this all long. But it's 948 00:52:42,040 --> 00:52:46,520 Speaker 1: just it is just lies, my friends. It is just lies, 949 00:52:46,680 --> 00:52:49,400 Speaker 1: and you know it and I know it. But Democrats 950 00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:51,480 Speaker 1: have gotten very, very comfortable with that, so I don't 951 00:52:51,520 --> 00:52:53,440 Speaker 1: think it's going to change anytime soon. All right, let's 952 00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:56,439 Speaker 1: check in on the crazy Democrat candidates, folks. I feel 953 00:52:56,480 --> 00:52:59,080 Speaker 1: like I feel like we haven't done much of that. 954 00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:01,080 Speaker 1: We haven't a nad lay today. I've just been getting 955 00:53:01,080 --> 00:53:05,360 Speaker 1: an impeachment and telling you about you know, psycho antifo wannabes. 956 00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:09,240 Speaker 1: They're just jealous that Buck pulled off the tuck.

There's not billionaire rich and 973 00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:16,840 Speaker 1: millionaire riches like you still have to think about things, 974 00:54:16,880 --> 00:54:18,440 Speaker 1: you know.

That is corruption, pure and simple, 988 00:55:02,040 --> 00:55:03,920 Speaker 1: and we need to call it out for what it is. 989 00:55:05,840 --> 00:55:08,759 Speaker 1: When you see a government that works for people with 990 00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:13,600 Speaker 1: money and it's not working so well for much of 991 00:55:13,719 --> 00:55:21,279 Speaker 1: any one house, that is corruption, pure and simple. What 992 00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:23,680 Speaker 1: does that mean? You know, that's my favorite question on 993 00:55:23,719 --> 00:55:27,319 Speaker 1: the show. But what does that mean the government work? 994 00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:33,879 Speaker 1: The government has a almost trillion dollars welfare budget, right 995 00:55:34,000 --> 00:55:37,040 Speaker 1: that spends almost a trillion dollars on welfare. Depending on 996 00:55:37,080 --> 00:55:39,680 Speaker 1: how you calculate welfare. I think it's like eight hundred 997 00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:45,040 Speaker 1: billion a year. Where exactly is how I mean the 998 00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:48,799 Speaker 1: government in what way works for rich people. I'm not 999 00:55:48,840 --> 00:55:51,080 Speaker 1: saying that that's not that there's not ways. The system 1000 00:55:51,160 --> 00:55:54,120 Speaker 1: is rad it's definitely true financial system. It's not fair. 1001 00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:56,400 Speaker 1: There's stuff that goes on that's that's bad and dirty. 1002 00:55:57,440 --> 00:55:59,200 Speaker 1: But I would like a little more specifics than just 1003 00:55:59,280 --> 00:56:01,719 Speaker 1: the class war fair envy. I don't like the rich 1004 00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:05,440 Speaker 1: people stuff Fromlizabeth Warren. I think that we could ask 1005 00:56:05,520 --> 00:56:08,040 Speaker 1: for a little bit more specificity than she's giving us here. 1006 00:56:08,920 --> 00:56:13,640 Speaker 1: Oh that's right. Wealth tax time, baby. Now, as a conservati, 1007 00:56:13,680 --> 00:56:16,759 Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you this wealth tax wouldn't affect me, 1008 00:56:16,800 --> 00:56:20,279 Speaker 1: so woooo right, Producer Mark, Oh, wealth tax, they're gonna 1009 00:56:20,280 --> 00:56:22,160 Speaker 1: get up in our bank accounts. I don't think, so 1010 00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:24,680 Speaker 1: we don't have to worry about that. Good, no new 1011 00:56:24,719 --> 00:56:28,719 Speaker 1: taxes for us, Yeah, exactly, Mom. Robin Hood Baby, Take 1012 00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:32,920 Speaker 1: from the rich, give to the poor. Important. What is 1013 00:56:32,920 --> 00:56:38,960 Speaker 1: the best version, live action or animated robin Hood of 1014 00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:42,160 Speaker 1: all time? There's only one answer to this question, but 1015 00:56:42,239 --> 00:56:45,160 Speaker 1: let's see if you get it. The best version of 1016 00:56:45,320 --> 00:56:49,799 Speaker 1: robin Hood the tale of all time. We're gonna go 1017 00:56:49,800 --> 00:56:53,640 Speaker 1: with the animated one, right, correct, ding ding ding? Producer 1018 00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:58,720 Speaker 1: Mark gets it done. The Disney animated I mean, nothing's 1019 00:56:58,719 --> 00:57:02,480 Speaker 1: better than most of the Disney animated movies. Remember that's like, uh, 1020 00:57:03,040 --> 00:57:06,360 Speaker 1: that the Sheriff of Nottingham that's singing that little little tune. 1021 00:57:06,480 --> 00:57:10,920 Speaker 1: I think so you've been a while since I've watched him. Yeah, anyway, 1022 00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:13,319 Speaker 1: it's great. If your kids haven't seen it, that's one 1023 00:57:13,320 --> 00:57:15,919 Speaker 1: of the best. That's an underrated Disney movie. Because here's 1024 00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:20,400 Speaker 1: the thing. Uh, the robin Hood Prince of Thieves with 1025 00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:24,080 Speaker 1: Kevin Costner. Why could everyone else have a British accent 1026 00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:27,200 Speaker 1: but he can't. He's like, yes, I am Robin Hood, 1027 00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:29,920 Speaker 1: and I speak in a monotone because I'm Kevin Costner. 1028 00:57:30,280 --> 00:57:32,080 Speaker 1: He doesn't. He doesn't have a British accent in the movie. 1029 00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:36,120 Speaker 1: It's like it took some guy from you know, central 1030 00:57:36,160 --> 00:57:40,920 Speaker 1: Illinois and put him in you know, thirteenth century England 1031 00:57:40,960 --> 00:57:42,880 Speaker 1: or whatever. Rob be like if James Bond spoke with 1032 00:57:42,920 --> 00:57:46,480 Speaker 1: an American accent. Yeah, exactly, I'm James Bond. Baby here 1033 00:57:46,520 --> 00:57:49,560 Speaker 1: I am. Look at my tucks, New Yorker, James Bond, 1034 00:57:49,560 --> 00:57:54,440 Speaker 1: New Yorker, James Bond. I like hot dogs, football, tuxedos, 1035 00:57:55,320 --> 00:57:58,160 Speaker 1: the Mets. Clearly that James Bond with like the Mets. 1036 00:57:59,240 --> 00:58:01,040 Speaker 1: What what is that supposed to mean? But we know 1037 00:58:01,080 --> 00:58:02,920 Speaker 1: what's up. We know, you know, we know there's this 1038 00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:05,400 Speaker 1: there's certain certain New Yorkers like the Yankees, and certain 1039 00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:07,200 Speaker 1: New Yorkers like the Mets. That's all I'm gonna tell you. 1040 00:58:07,240 --> 00:58:10,840 Speaker 1: It's the thing. I'm a Mets fan. Fuck. I know? 1041 00:58:11,120 --> 00:58:13,320 Speaker 1: Is I like we like the poke producer bark a 1042 00:58:13,360 --> 00:58:16,000 Speaker 1: little bit? So anyway, do you a Robin Hood prince 1043 00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:19,880 Speaker 1: athesis is bad men and tites is reasonably entertaining. It's 1044 00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:21,680 Speaker 1: actually Dave Chappelle back in the day was in met 1045 00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:24,560 Speaker 1: robin hood mentites. All right, Sorry, I got totally sidetracked 1046 00:58:24,560 --> 00:58:30,360 Speaker 1: Fromlizeth Warren wealth tax. There we go back on track now. 1047 00:58:30,960 --> 00:58:32,880 Speaker 1: So the thing about a wealth tax. As a conservative, 1048 00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:37,360 Speaker 1: I understand that the wealth tax is problematic in a 1049 00:58:37,440 --> 00:58:40,840 Speaker 1: lot of ways. But before I get into why the 1050 00:58:40,840 --> 00:58:43,800 Speaker 1: wealth tax is problematic, let me say that the I 1051 00:58:43,920 --> 00:58:47,160 Speaker 1: always tell you when I get a little status tingley, 1052 00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:50,680 Speaker 1: I get a little thrill up a leg of statism 1053 00:58:50,800 --> 00:58:53,040 Speaker 1: or something, or statism is throwing up my like whatever 1054 00:58:53,080 --> 00:58:56,640 Speaker 1: you understand, I I always know when I'm veering into that, 1055 00:58:56,720 --> 00:58:59,720 Speaker 1: Like like when they banned smoking in places, I'm like, 1056 00:58:59,800 --> 00:59:04,440 Speaker 1: I know it's big government, but stinks for all of 1057 00:59:04,480 --> 00:59:07,200 Speaker 1: you who like to smoke in the public places, like 1058 00:59:07,440 --> 00:59:10,640 Speaker 1: and I know that that should be private, private day 1059 00:59:10,720 --> 00:59:13,160 Speaker 1: places to be able, but they regulated and they say 1060 00:59:14,160 --> 00:59:16,400 Speaker 1: can't do it. And I like it, even though I 1061 00:59:16,480 --> 00:59:20,200 Speaker 1: know that technically it's not a free market liberal liberal 1062 00:59:20,520 --> 00:59:22,640 Speaker 1: or I should say a liberty base is when I 1063 00:59:22,800 --> 00:59:26,680 Speaker 1: liberal Buck had a long night. Buck, his voice is 1064 00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:30,080 Speaker 1: a little bit scratchy and my brain's not foggy, though 1065 00:59:30,120 --> 00:59:32,640 Speaker 1: I'm not having like a not having like a Biden moment. 1066 00:59:32,680 --> 00:59:35,480 Speaker 1: Here or anything. Um see that we should call it. 1067 00:59:35,520 --> 00:59:37,560 Speaker 1: Call it a Biden moment, when you forget where you are, 1068 00:59:37,880 --> 00:59:43,520 Speaker 1: when you're just sort of blabbering incoherently about something. So 1069 00:59:43,560 --> 00:59:45,479 Speaker 1: I like the idea that at least a wealth tax 1070 00:59:45,480 --> 00:59:48,480 Speaker 1: because the super rich Libs and wealth tax is bad. 1071 00:59:48,520 --> 00:59:50,320 Speaker 1: Don't you know? People can cut this and like Buck, 1072 00:59:50,360 --> 00:59:52,200 Speaker 1: you said, you're like a wealth tax. No, I don't 1073 00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:54,640 Speaker 1: like a wealth tax, but there are some parts of 1074 00:59:54,680 --> 00:59:56,280 Speaker 1: it that I kind of like. Because the problem you 1075 00:59:56,320 --> 00:59:58,440 Speaker 1: have with a lot of Libs is that they love 1076 00:59:58,480 --> 00:59:59,880 Speaker 1: to talk about how much they want to pay higher 1077 00:59:59,880 --> 01:00:02,360 Speaker 1: t axes and they're all fine with it. And yeah, 1078 01:00:02,400 --> 01:00:05,720 Speaker 1: you look at somebody like like John Carey when he 1079 01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:10,200 Speaker 1: was running for president. I think back in two thousand four, right, 1080 01:00:11,040 --> 01:00:15,720 Speaker 1: think about that John Carey was a Democrat nominee for president. Wow, 1081 01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:19,720 Speaker 1: that guy, Yesh, I'm really boring and I talk like 1082 01:00:19,800 --> 01:00:24,640 Speaker 1: this all the time. And I've been fortunate to marry 1083 01:00:24,680 --> 01:00:32,080 Speaker 1: two incredibly wealthy women, one after the other. And John Carey, Man, my, 1084 01:00:32,160 --> 01:00:34,080 Speaker 1: John Carey is actually kind of good. I haven't pulled 1085 01:00:34,080 --> 01:00:35,840 Speaker 1: that one out a while. I was like, I felt 1086 01:00:35,840 --> 01:00:39,720 Speaker 1: like John Carey was in the room so some of 1087 01:00:39,760 --> 01:00:44,080 Speaker 1: you were like boo false. John Carey when he was 1088 01:00:44,160 --> 01:00:46,320 Speaker 1: running for president. I think he had something like seven 1089 01:00:46,640 --> 01:00:51,120 Speaker 1: million dollars in income from investments and things, so like, 1090 01:00:51,680 --> 01:00:54,880 Speaker 1: not from labor, but just from investment income. And I 1091 01:00:54,920 --> 01:00:57,560 Speaker 1: think he paid ten or twelve or fifteen percent because 1092 01:00:57,600 --> 01:00:59,360 Speaker 1: there are all these incentives and all this stuff, it 1093 01:00:59,400 --> 01:01:03,760 Speaker 1: was structured. He paid a shockingly low tax rate on 1094 01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:05,680 Speaker 1: the seven million dollars. And keep mind they're not touching 1095 01:01:05,720 --> 01:01:07,840 Speaker 1: any of the principle of his overall. Well, so of 1096 01:01:07,880 --> 01:01:09,840 Speaker 1: course for people like that, they're like, yeah, fifty percent 1097 01:01:09,880 --> 01:01:13,120 Speaker 1: tax rate whatever their bills are already paid because of 1098 01:01:13,520 --> 01:01:16,840 Speaker 1: super rich people don't have to care about the tax 1099 01:01:16,920 --> 01:01:20,040 Speaker 1: rate all that much. The tax rate on income, my friends, 1100 01:01:20,640 --> 01:01:22,440 Speaker 1: they don't have to care about because their expenses are 1101 01:01:22,440 --> 01:01:26,880 Speaker 1: already all covered and are covered by what they can 1102 01:01:26,920 --> 01:01:32,000 Speaker 1: accumulate just from investment income. Essentially, even though right now 1103 01:01:32,000 --> 01:01:33,800 Speaker 1: bank accounts he don't get anything. I mean, this is 1104 01:01:34,280 --> 01:01:36,560 Speaker 1: I will say, you know, from Bannon last night, one 1105 01:01:36,560 --> 01:01:38,360 Speaker 1: of the best things that he said at the at 1106 01:01:38,400 --> 01:01:42,080 Speaker 1: the speech, and he went into how the government policy 1107 01:01:42,120 --> 01:01:45,880 Speaker 1: and this is where this is true. Government policy has 1108 01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:50,880 Speaker 1: because of quantitative easing and this enormous FED balance sheet 1109 01:01:50,920 --> 01:01:55,560 Speaker 1: and the acquisition of all this cash by the federal 1110 01:01:55,560 --> 01:01:58,640 Speaker 1: government to use and then distribute to printing money. I 1111 01:01:58,680 --> 01:02:00,480 Speaker 1: mean they don't actually print it, but to put money 1112 01:02:00,480 --> 01:02:03,120 Speaker 1: out in the marketplace. What it means is that's why 1113 01:02:03,160 --> 01:02:05,640 Speaker 1: you can't get any percentage on your savings that's worth 1114 01:02:05,760 --> 01:02:08,120 Speaker 1: worth a damn anymore. You can't. You know, there were 1115 01:02:08,160 --> 01:02:10,240 Speaker 1: times when you could get and some of you listening 1116 01:02:10,240 --> 01:02:11,720 Speaker 1: to know this because you got it. And I've never 1117 01:02:11,760 --> 01:02:13,080 Speaker 1: been alive when it, but you would get you know, 1118 01:02:13,280 --> 01:02:16,040 Speaker 1: seven yeah, even I think at one point it when 1119 01:02:16,040 --> 01:02:17,480 Speaker 1: I was high. Well, I don't know. I don't want 1120 01:02:17,480 --> 01:02:18,680 Speaker 1: to give you a number because I will be wrong, 1121 01:02:18,720 --> 01:02:21,960 Speaker 1: but I know it's seven eight nine percent on a 1122 01:02:22,280 --> 01:02:25,320 Speaker 1: savings account. You could get back at one point. Now 1123 01:02:25,320 --> 01:02:28,880 Speaker 1: there was higher inflation obviously, but still now you can't 1124 01:02:28,920 --> 01:02:30,640 Speaker 1: get any money on that stuff. And that means that 1125 01:02:30,720 --> 01:02:33,560 Speaker 1: the money goes into the into the stock market, in 1126 01:02:33,600 --> 01:02:37,080 Speaker 1: particular inflated people who have assets, those assets get inflated, 1127 01:02:37,120 --> 01:02:38,720 Speaker 1: they do well. But people who are trying to save 1128 01:02:38,800 --> 01:02:43,480 Speaker 1: money pay for essentials, they are you know, you're transferring 1129 01:02:43,520 --> 01:02:47,240 Speaker 1: money from from people who are at the lower end 1130 01:02:47,240 --> 01:02:48,880 Speaker 1: of the scale who are just trying to get ahead 1131 01:02:48,880 --> 01:02:50,600 Speaker 1: and build some economic security of people who at the 1132 01:02:50,720 --> 01:02:52,800 Speaker 1: very top of the scale. That's a real economic phenomenon. 1133 01:02:52,840 --> 01:02:56,800 Speaker 1: Ben I was talking about it last night, and that's 1134 01:02:56,840 --> 01:02:59,880 Speaker 1: something that we should not forget, you know, Lizabeth Warren, 1135 01:03:00,360 --> 01:03:02,680 Speaker 1: some Democrats, some of the stuff they talk about is real. 1136 01:03:03,040 --> 01:03:07,120 Speaker 1: There are there is a growing gap between rich and 1137 01:03:07,160 --> 01:03:09,320 Speaker 1: poor in this country. I mean, there are some phenomena 1138 01:03:09,480 --> 01:03:12,760 Speaker 1: that they they discussed that are we need to discuss 1139 01:03:12,800 --> 01:03:14,720 Speaker 1: two because it's real. But we just have better ideas 1140 01:03:14,760 --> 01:03:19,280 Speaker 1: about how to fix it. But a wealth tax affects 1141 01:03:19,320 --> 01:03:22,240 Speaker 1: the people that like to walk around being, oh, I 1142 01:03:22,240 --> 01:03:24,440 Speaker 1: don't care how high am I tige whicheverybody should pay 1143 01:03:24,480 --> 01:03:27,720 Speaker 1: higher taxes? Oh really, All of a sudden, the really 1144 01:03:27,800 --> 01:03:31,000 Speaker 1: rich people start and of course the super rich libs 1145 01:03:31,040 --> 01:03:33,800 Speaker 1: out there start to say, oh, no, you can't take 1146 01:03:33,840 --> 01:03:37,400 Speaker 1: a percentage of my overall assets, because that starts to 1147 01:03:37,440 --> 01:03:41,760 Speaker 1: feel like they're actually they're they're feeling that. It feels 1148 01:03:41,760 --> 01:03:44,160 Speaker 1: like they're feeling it, that's the way you could say 1149 01:03:44,160 --> 01:03:46,600 Speaker 1: it. It It feels like they take note of it. And 1150 01:03:46,640 --> 01:03:51,840 Speaker 1: here's Senator Elizabeth Warren doing her full Marxist class warfare routine, 1151 01:03:52,280 --> 01:03:55,920 Speaker 1: play clip sixteen. Please, And here's the thing. You may 1152 01:03:55,920 --> 01:03:59,880 Speaker 1: have heard some billionaires on TV recently crying about that 1153 01:04:00,040 --> 01:04:09,560 Speaker 1: two cent wealth tax. Ah, but we asked the top 1154 01:04:09,640 --> 01:04:13,360 Speaker 1: one tenth of one percent to pitch in two cents 1155 01:04:13,400 --> 01:04:17,320 Speaker 1: on their fortunes. We can invest in an entire generation 1156 01:04:20,200 --> 01:04:25,800 Speaker 1: two cent wealth tax. I'm assuming she means ah, I'm 1157 01:04:25,840 --> 01:04:33,800 Speaker 1: assuming she means two percent. Uh what exactly is her Yeah? Yeah, 1158 01:04:33,920 --> 01:04:36,320 Speaker 1: annual on two percent? Yeah, that's what. Of course it's 1159 01:04:36,400 --> 01:04:39,360 Speaker 1: two cents. Why she says it's two percent, she's calling 1160 01:04:39,360 --> 01:04:41,920 Speaker 1: a two cent That's why I don't. I guess she's 1161 01:04:41,920 --> 01:04:46,919 Speaker 1: trying to be clever with two percent wealth tax, two 1162 01:04:46,920 --> 01:04:49,520 Speaker 1: percent on every dollar of net worth above fifty million dollars. 1163 01:04:50,360 --> 01:04:51,680 Speaker 1: What this would do is it would over time, it 1164 01:04:51,680 --> 01:04:54,160 Speaker 1: would shrink very large fortunes. That is true. It would 1165 01:04:55,080 --> 01:04:58,800 Speaker 1: and people who right now are very haughty about how 1166 01:04:58,840 --> 01:05:01,040 Speaker 1: they don't care what their tax it is, they would 1167 01:05:01,040 --> 01:05:02,920 Speaker 1: start to care all of a sudden. They would be 1168 01:05:02,960 --> 01:05:06,320 Speaker 1: a change, There would be a shift in their thinking. 1169 01:05:06,360 --> 01:05:09,400 Speaker 1: And so if for no other reason than that, I 1170 01:05:09,480 --> 01:05:11,360 Speaker 1: kind of like it. I kind of like it because 1171 01:05:11,480 --> 01:05:13,960 Speaker 1: now I do not just I do not support a 1172 01:05:14,000 --> 01:05:16,080 Speaker 1: wealth tax, but I like the aspect of it where 1173 01:05:16,080 --> 01:05:19,640 Speaker 1: it shows some of the hypocrisy. It shakes rattles up 1174 01:05:19,680 --> 01:05:22,320 Speaker 1: a little bit. The people that love to talk about, oh, 1175 01:05:22,360 --> 01:05:23,880 Speaker 1: I wish I could pay Warren taxes. First of all, 1176 01:05:23,920 --> 01:05:26,120 Speaker 1: those people never just they can send as much money 1177 01:05:26,120 --> 01:05:27,520 Speaker 1: as they want the federal government. If you want to 1178 01:05:27,520 --> 01:05:29,640 Speaker 1: give the federal government every dollar you have, you can 1179 01:05:29,680 --> 01:05:32,200 Speaker 1: do that. And I'm sure there's some leftists who so 1180 01:05:32,240 --> 01:05:34,360 Speaker 1: that's the patriotic thing to do, give every dollar you 1181 01:05:34,360 --> 01:05:36,880 Speaker 1: have for the government so that the Democrats can redistribute 1182 01:05:36,920 --> 01:05:39,840 Speaker 1: it to legal aliens, right. I mean, that's they're great 1183 01:05:39,880 --> 01:05:43,480 Speaker 1: with that. They think it's a fantastic idea. But the 1184 01:05:43,560 --> 01:05:48,200 Speaker 1: wealth tax Elizabeth Warren is bringing up is that's where 1185 01:05:48,240 --> 01:05:50,360 Speaker 1: Wall Street is all of a sudden starting to turn 1186 01:05:50,440 --> 01:05:55,120 Speaker 1: on her. This is where people are seeing things differently 1187 01:05:55,320 --> 01:06:00,320 Speaker 1: about Elizabeth Warren. And they had in the past ease 1188 01:06:01,120 --> 01:06:04,640 Speaker 1: every bit as radical as Bernie. She just comes across 1189 01:06:04,800 --> 01:06:09,640 Speaker 1: as less radical in her demeanor. But it's really just 1190 01:06:09,760 --> 01:06:12,920 Speaker 1: a style thing. It's not a substance thing. She has 1191 01:06:12,960 --> 01:06:15,760 Speaker 1: all of Bernie's radicalism and then some, and we should 1192 01:06:15,760 --> 01:06:19,240 Speaker 1: not forget that as we continue to think about which Democrat, 1193 01:06:19,280 --> 01:06:23,040 Speaker 1: which Democrat do we really want to have squaring off 1194 01:06:23,080 --> 01:06:26,520 Speaker 1: against President Trump. That's that's an interesting question at this point. 1195 01:06:26,520 --> 01:06:28,439 Speaker 1: I don't I don't have a clear answer in mind, 1196 01:06:28,480 --> 01:06:31,320 Speaker 1: other than I feel like I'm quite confident that Bernie 1197 01:06:31,400 --> 01:06:35,600 Speaker 1: Sanders would lose, but I don't know. Maybe Biden is 1198 01:06:35,640 --> 01:06:37,800 Speaker 1: more likely to lose. In Sanders, I think it's important 1199 01:06:37,800 --> 01:06:39,640 Speaker 1: for the nation to raise him and raise a fifteen 1200 01:06:39,680 --> 01:06:41,840 Speaker 1: dollars an hour or the next seven years. Is that possible? 1201 01:06:42,520 --> 01:06:45,360 Speaker 1: It is possible. You know what happened was when Barack 1202 01:06:45,440 --> 01:06:48,200 Speaker 1: and iron office. What happened was we pushed it, and 1203 01:06:48,320 --> 01:06:51,920 Speaker 1: a number of states came along and responded to that push. 1204 01:06:51,960 --> 01:06:54,040 Speaker 1: And there's a number of states. Now there's fifteen dollars 1205 01:06:54,040 --> 01:06:56,840 Speaker 1: minimum ways that's phased in. And the argument's going to 1206 01:06:56,920 --> 01:06:59,120 Speaker 1: cost jobs is not true. Just take a look of 1207 01:06:59,160 --> 01:07:02,600 Speaker 1: corporate profits there. The idea he can't pay for fifteen 1208 01:07:02,640 --> 01:07:05,960 Speaker 1: bucks an hour is not It is just not accurate. 1209 01:07:06,280 --> 01:07:09,320 Speaker 1: And look, it's all about giving people some dignity. There 1210 01:07:09,320 --> 01:07:12,800 Speaker 1: has to be the ability to be able to have healthcare, education, 1211 01:07:13,040 --> 01:07:15,520 Speaker 1: be able to live a decent life. Nobody should be 1212 01:07:15,560 --> 01:07:19,200 Speaker 1: working forty hours a week and being paid was below 1213 01:07:19,240 --> 01:07:21,640 Speaker 1: the poverty level. It's just not right in minment. Now. 1214 01:07:21,640 --> 01:07:24,560 Speaker 1: I know this is a very popular issue left hand right. 1215 01:07:24,640 --> 01:07:28,600 Speaker 1: People like minimum wage, they like raising minimum wage, and 1216 01:07:29,680 --> 01:07:33,640 Speaker 1: we never seem to get past this. It's a little 1217 01:07:33,680 --> 01:07:38,600 Speaker 1: bit like the intractable nature of the pay gap between 1218 01:07:38,600 --> 01:07:40,400 Speaker 1: men and women, which is not what people say it is. 1219 01:07:40,520 --> 01:07:42,920 Speaker 1: The pay gap is a lie. You keep you have 1220 01:07:42,960 --> 01:07:45,320 Speaker 1: to keep coming back to this. No, women do not 1221 01:07:45,440 --> 01:07:48,320 Speaker 1: make you know, seventy seven cents of the dollar or 1222 01:07:48,400 --> 01:07:50,520 Speaker 1: what They're doing the same work, at the same level, 1223 01:07:50,600 --> 01:07:53,520 Speaker 1: the same stuff. That's not true. It's just not but 1224 01:07:53,720 --> 01:07:55,920 Speaker 1: people like to say it. And on minimum wage. I 1225 01:07:55,960 --> 01:07:58,200 Speaker 1: know this is where because I feel that to you, 1226 01:07:58,320 --> 01:08:01,400 Speaker 1: I mean, I want people to get well paid. I look, 1227 01:08:01,440 --> 01:08:03,800 Speaker 1: anybody who shows up and does an honest job for 1228 01:08:03,840 --> 01:08:07,520 Speaker 1: an honest wage deserves respect. And I mean that from 1229 01:08:07,520 --> 01:08:10,240 Speaker 1: bottom my heart. And I think that, you know, one 1230 01:08:10,240 --> 01:08:12,560 Speaker 1: of the things about America that makes us Americans is 1231 01:08:12,560 --> 01:08:14,080 Speaker 1: that if you show up and you're doing an honest 1232 01:08:14,120 --> 01:08:16,880 Speaker 1: job for an honest wage, it's it's every bit as 1233 01:08:16,880 --> 01:08:19,040 Speaker 1: respectable was any other job at anyone's doing for a 1234 01:08:19,040 --> 01:08:21,240 Speaker 1: ton of money or famous or whatever. It may be, 1235 01:08:21,439 --> 01:08:23,559 Speaker 1: and that's that's part of our that is part of 1236 01:08:23,560 --> 01:08:26,120 Speaker 1: our American ethos, that is part of our American culture. 1237 01:08:27,800 --> 01:08:30,840 Speaker 1: But I also understand economics a little bit better than 1238 01:08:30,840 --> 01:08:33,080 Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders and better than Joe Biden, that's for sure. 1239 01:08:34,000 --> 01:08:35,800 Speaker 1: And I know that the studies they've done on this 1240 01:08:36,080 --> 01:08:39,880 Speaker 1: are very clear. Minimum wage. When you raise it, some 1241 01:08:39,960 --> 01:08:43,200 Speaker 1: people do make more money. Some people's hours are cut back, 1242 01:08:43,640 --> 01:08:47,640 Speaker 1: some people's jobs are cut that's just your screen. The 1243 01:08:47,720 --> 01:08:49,679 Speaker 1: price is the price. I always say that's the central 1244 01:08:49,720 --> 01:08:52,120 Speaker 1: planners pretend that's not the case. The price is the 1245 01:08:52,160 --> 01:08:56,120 Speaker 1: price the market sets. The price paying somebody is the 1246 01:08:56,160 --> 01:09:00,160 Speaker 1: price for their labor. And there are factors that go 1247 01:09:00,160 --> 01:09:02,320 Speaker 1: into that that are not just we think this would 1248 01:09:02,360 --> 01:09:03,960 Speaker 1: be a good amount of money for you to make. 1249 01:09:05,960 --> 01:09:07,920 Speaker 1: And it's also the case that it makes it harder 1250 01:09:07,960 --> 01:09:10,640 Speaker 1: for people to get into the workforce, it increases automation. 1251 01:09:10,680 --> 01:09:12,439 Speaker 1: I mean, there's all these there are all these things 1252 01:09:12,479 --> 01:09:14,400 Speaker 1: that happen you raise themum wage and people feel good 1253 01:09:14,400 --> 01:09:17,479 Speaker 1: about it, and there are some people who will be 1254 01:09:17,600 --> 01:09:20,000 Speaker 1: you know, in that margin of okay, the company can 1255 01:09:20,040 --> 01:09:21,960 Speaker 1: pay a little bit more, or they it's good pr 1256 01:09:22,040 --> 01:09:24,679 Speaker 1: for them. So they'll just they'll pass on the cost 1257 01:09:24,760 --> 01:09:29,720 Speaker 1: to consumers. There's all these different but ultimately you're just mandating. 1258 01:09:29,760 --> 01:09:31,639 Speaker 1: The government is mandating that the money is going from 1259 01:09:31,640 --> 01:09:35,280 Speaker 1: one place and into another. That's what's happening here. There's 1260 01:09:35,320 --> 01:09:38,559 Speaker 1: there's there's not some magic money tree that they can 1261 01:09:38,560 --> 01:09:40,200 Speaker 1: just shake and the money comes down for all the 1262 01:09:40,200 --> 01:09:44,120 Speaker 1: people and everything is fine. But everyone like this is 1263 01:09:44,200 --> 01:09:46,040 Speaker 1: you know, Republicans lose on this issue. People like the 1264 01:09:46,080 --> 01:09:48,000 Speaker 1: minimum wage to get to be higher. No one wants 1265 01:09:48,040 --> 01:09:50,960 Speaker 1: to hear from the nerdy economists who actually crunch the numbers. 1266 01:09:50,960 --> 01:09:53,200 Speaker 1: You'll tell you that it doesn't do. It does not 1267 01:09:53,400 --> 01:09:56,920 Speaker 1: do what people say it will do. There are costs 1268 01:09:56,920 --> 01:09:58,640 Speaker 1: and there are drawbacks. But you know, I know, I 1269 01:09:58,680 --> 01:10:01,479 Speaker 1: sound like Buck the Grinch, the whistleblower whose complaint has 1270 01:10:01,479 --> 01:10:04,559 Speaker 1: now led to impeachment hearings. The whole point of releasing 1271 01:10:04,560 --> 01:10:08,880 Speaker 1: a name is to intimidate someone, to threaten someone, and 1272 01:10:08,920 --> 01:10:11,840 Speaker 1: to scare other people from coming out. That's something that 1273 01:10:11,920 --> 01:10:14,839 Speaker 1: dictators do. I've lived in China. I've seen that firsthand. 1274 01:10:14,840 --> 01:10:16,680 Speaker 1: That's not what America does. That's not who we do. 1275 01:10:16,760 --> 01:10:18,680 Speaker 1: We don't we stand by our people. Why did you 1276 01:10:18,680 --> 01:10:25,800 Speaker 1: want to release think think. I think the reality of 1277 01:10:25,840 --> 01:10:28,719 Speaker 1: the answer is the whistleblower's name was on a little 1278 01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:31,320 Speaker 1: website called the Drudge Report a couple of days ago. 1279 01:10:31,360 --> 01:10:34,759 Speaker 1: It was in real clear politics. I literally quote tweeted 1280 01:10:35,120 --> 01:10:37,960 Speaker 1: an article that had the guy's name in the title 1281 01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:41,200 Speaker 1: of the article. So that whole thing is that I 1282 01:10:41,200 --> 01:10:44,720 Speaker 1: wish the outrage would be equal. I mean, there was 1283 01:10:44,800 --> 01:10:47,599 Speaker 1: no outrage when you know, my family got an exploding 1284 01:10:47,680 --> 01:10:50,280 Speaker 1: letter of you know, with white powder substance in it. 1285 01:10:50,600 --> 01:10:52,320 Speaker 1: You know, they're protecting a guy, you know, in the 1286 01:10:52,400 --> 01:10:55,320 Speaker 1: CIA and the great outrage. But when your family gets something, 1287 01:10:55,360 --> 01:10:56,719 Speaker 1: it's there. And that's a big part of the book, 1288 01:10:56,720 --> 01:10:59,800 Speaker 1: which is it's not a level playing field in terms 1289 01:10:59,800 --> 01:11:03,559 Speaker 1: of outrage. We do live in an outrage culture. We 1290 01:11:03,640 --> 01:11:06,000 Speaker 1: do live in an outrage culture, that's for sure. And 1291 01:11:06,080 --> 01:11:09,040 Speaker 1: it was an outrage how much stupid stuff was said 1292 01:11:09,040 --> 01:11:11,960 Speaker 1: on the View yesterday by some of those co hosts. 1293 01:11:13,600 --> 01:11:16,240 Speaker 1: First of all, we've we went over to remember that 1294 01:11:16,280 --> 01:11:18,360 Speaker 1: you had Sonny Houston saying that it was a crime, 1295 01:11:18,439 --> 01:11:21,599 Speaker 1: which she's don't have her as your defense attorney that much. 1296 01:11:21,680 --> 01:11:25,639 Speaker 1: I assure you that bad idea not a good lawyer. Okay, 1297 01:11:25,920 --> 01:11:30,000 Speaker 1: You're not going to prison in any normal circumstance, at 1298 01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:33,479 Speaker 1: any normal court in this country because you shared a 1299 01:11:33,560 --> 01:11:36,240 Speaker 1: news article that was freely published that you just happened 1300 01:11:36,240 --> 01:11:39,120 Speaker 1: to share online. That that does not happen, not yet 1301 01:11:39,160 --> 01:11:43,280 Speaker 1: at least in this country. But even an Abby Huntsman there, 1302 01:11:43,280 --> 01:11:44,559 Speaker 1: who I remember when she worked in FI I thought 1303 01:11:44,600 --> 01:11:47,160 Speaker 1: she was kind of supposed to be a conservative? Is 1304 01:11:47,160 --> 01:11:50,040 Speaker 1: that Abby Huntsman just is she whatever she has to 1305 01:11:50,080 --> 01:11:52,439 Speaker 1: be for the job she's in at that time. Is 1306 01:11:52,479 --> 01:11:58,880 Speaker 1: that where her ideology lies? I think so. So, you 1307 01:11:59,000 --> 01:12:02,280 Speaker 1: know Huntsman in Romney, you get some of these folks 1308 01:12:02,280 --> 01:12:08,920 Speaker 1: who are Republican names out the Republican dynasties who don't 1309 01:12:08,920 --> 01:12:14,160 Speaker 1: seem all that concern with helping out. Republicans sometimes seem 1310 01:12:14,240 --> 01:12:18,240 Speaker 1: much more concerned with, well, what's gonna help me at 1311 01:12:18,280 --> 01:12:21,240 Speaker 1: any point in Ton? But her her no, no, look, 1312 01:12:21,280 --> 01:12:23,960 Speaker 1: I don't. I'm surprised that she's actually on an opinion 1313 01:12:24,000 --> 01:12:25,519 Speaker 1: chow because I've never really heard her share much in 1314 01:12:25,520 --> 01:12:29,240 Speaker 1: the way of opinions. But she said here that you 1315 01:12:29,280 --> 01:12:33,280 Speaker 1: know this is meant to intimidate, to threaten someone. First 1316 01:12:33,280 --> 01:12:35,360 Speaker 1: of all, Don Junior didn't release the name of the person. 1317 01:12:35,760 --> 01:12:39,440 Speaker 1: But beyond that, for a second, she brought up dictators. 1318 01:12:39,439 --> 01:12:42,920 Speaker 1: That's what dictators do. They out people who are whistleblowers 1319 01:12:42,920 --> 01:12:47,480 Speaker 1: in the government. You know what else dictators do. Dictators 1320 01:12:48,120 --> 01:12:54,559 Speaker 1: hold secret trials. Dictators don't have to present evidence for 1321 01:12:54,600 --> 01:12:59,520 Speaker 1: public scrutiny. Dictators will take sworn testimony or just testimony 1322 01:13:00,080 --> 01:13:03,480 Speaker 1: from anonymous sources and use that as the only justification 1323 01:13:03,560 --> 01:13:08,360 Speaker 1: necessary to punish someone, to destroy someone. Dictators do that too. 1324 01:13:09,280 --> 01:13:13,479 Speaker 1: Who's doing that right now? And Aunt Trump, it's not 1325 01:13:13,520 --> 01:13:20,559 Speaker 1: the Republicans. It's just a particularly stupid moment there. And 1326 01:13:20,760 --> 01:13:22,519 Speaker 1: as I keep saying to you this, the whistle blower 1327 01:13:22,600 --> 01:13:26,200 Speaker 1: legally does not have the expectation of complete and utter privacy. 1328 01:13:26,920 --> 01:13:29,559 Speaker 1: The whistle blower Statute is out there to protect people 1329 01:13:29,600 --> 01:13:34,280 Speaker 1: from retaliation. It is not meant to be a cover 1330 01:13:35,080 --> 01:13:38,760 Speaker 1: so that someone cannot be that they can engage in 1331 01:13:38,760 --> 01:13:41,800 Speaker 1: a political debate from behind the cover of anonymity. Look 1332 01:13:41,800 --> 01:13:43,760 Speaker 1: at Democrats doing this, folks. This is now a new 1333 01:13:43,800 --> 01:13:46,439 Speaker 1: game They're played. Got the anonymous book, which apparently terrible. 1334 01:13:47,360 --> 01:13:49,760 Speaker 1: I mean, there's like, because this guy writes this anonymous book, 1335 01:13:49,760 --> 01:13:51,519 Speaker 1: it's the same thing, the same problem you have with 1336 01:13:51,600 --> 01:13:55,720 Speaker 1: the whistleblower who won't subject himself to scrutiny. How can 1337 01:13:55,760 --> 01:13:59,599 Speaker 1: we test the merit of any of these claims. Let's 1338 01:13:59,600 --> 01:14:01,679 Speaker 1: just take all the politics out of this for a second. 1339 01:14:01,760 --> 01:14:04,679 Speaker 1: If I said to you, if I said to you 1340 01:14:04,760 --> 01:14:11,519 Speaker 1: that your business partner is stealing from you, right, if 1341 01:14:11,800 --> 01:14:14,479 Speaker 1: i've you and I my dear and beloved audience, if 1342 01:14:14,600 --> 01:14:16,160 Speaker 1: we are have a conversation you and I knew you, 1343 01:14:16,200 --> 01:14:17,960 Speaker 1: and I said, look, I know your business partner stealing 1344 01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:22,040 Speaker 1: from you. And you said, well, how do you know that? 1345 01:14:22,120 --> 01:14:25,960 Speaker 1: And I said, well, I just know, and I wouldn't 1346 01:14:25,960 --> 01:14:28,120 Speaker 1: give any more information than that. Would you be right 1347 01:14:28,160 --> 01:14:30,640 Speaker 1: to act on that? Would you be right to go 1348 01:14:30,680 --> 01:14:32,360 Speaker 1: and confront your business partner and say, hey, are you 1349 01:14:32,360 --> 01:14:36,800 Speaker 1: stealing from me? No? If your business and if you 1350 01:14:36,880 --> 01:14:39,960 Speaker 1: asked me and I said, well, it turns out that 1351 01:14:40,040 --> 01:14:42,880 Speaker 1: I'm really good friends with your business partner's accountant, and 1352 01:14:42,960 --> 01:14:45,280 Speaker 1: he's worried and he's going to the FEDS because there's 1353 01:14:45,320 --> 01:14:49,120 Speaker 1: some embezzling going on here, then you might say, okay, 1354 01:14:49,240 --> 01:14:51,800 Speaker 1: I got a problem here, right, But how can you 1355 01:14:51,840 --> 01:14:54,480 Speaker 1: know without me giving you that critical piece of information? 1356 01:14:55,920 --> 01:14:57,760 Speaker 1: What if I said your business partner stealing from you. 1357 01:14:57,800 --> 01:14:59,760 Speaker 1: And you said well, And I said, well, I a guy. 1358 01:15:00,040 --> 01:15:01,800 Speaker 1: This actually happen. Once a guy came up to me 1359 01:15:01,800 --> 01:15:04,760 Speaker 1: in a wizard hat, serious like a wizard, you know, 1360 01:15:04,840 --> 01:15:09,519 Speaker 1: like like Harry Potter, and he wanted to tell my fortune. 1361 01:15:09,880 --> 01:15:11,400 Speaker 1: And he just sat next to me and started telling 1362 01:15:11,439 --> 01:15:12,960 Speaker 1: me what's going to happen in my future. If I 1363 01:15:13,000 --> 01:15:16,439 Speaker 1: told you that guy, random wizard walking around to the park, 1364 01:15:16,439 --> 01:15:19,120 Speaker 1: guy who claimed to be able to see the future, 1365 01:15:19,280 --> 01:15:21,719 Speaker 1: that he told me that your business partner is stealing 1366 01:15:21,760 --> 01:15:24,200 Speaker 1: from you, you'd probably say, I don't think I'm not 1367 01:15:24,200 --> 01:15:27,080 Speaker 1: worried about my business partners stealing for me. How can 1368 01:15:27,160 --> 01:15:30,679 Speaker 1: you assess the credibility of information without these necessary facts? 1369 01:15:30,880 --> 01:15:34,240 Speaker 1: You can't. Why am I? You know, why am I 1370 01:15:34,320 --> 01:15:36,679 Speaker 1: telling you this thing? On what basis am I telling 1371 01:15:36,680 --> 01:15:39,400 Speaker 1: you this thing? The anonymous book that's out there right 1372 01:15:39,439 --> 01:15:43,360 Speaker 1: now comes from somebody who won't give the details about 1373 01:15:43,360 --> 01:15:49,439 Speaker 1: obviously himself or herself, but even beyond that, won't give 1374 01:15:49,560 --> 01:15:53,759 Speaker 1: specifics enough about the incidents in question because doesn't want 1375 01:15:53,800 --> 01:15:57,120 Speaker 1: to be outed by you know what. You get into 1376 01:15:57,160 --> 01:15:59,639 Speaker 1: certain conversations in certain places in the White House, there's 1377 01:15:59,680 --> 01:16:03,600 Speaker 1: only a small group of people that were in the room, 1378 01:16:03,640 --> 01:16:05,320 Speaker 1: and they're gonna be able to figure out you know, 1379 01:16:05,320 --> 01:16:07,280 Speaker 1: they're gonna find out who the mole is. Essentially right, 1380 01:16:07,280 --> 01:16:10,519 Speaker 1: they're gonna find out who the leaky, leaky member of 1381 01:16:10,560 --> 01:16:14,760 Speaker 1: the team is with this book. So you don't know 1382 01:16:14,920 --> 01:16:17,639 Speaker 1: who the person is, and they won't give any details 1383 01:16:17,640 --> 01:16:21,880 Speaker 1: to prove that what they say they heard or what 1384 01:16:21,920 --> 01:16:24,240 Speaker 1: they say happened happen, but we're just supposed to believe them. 1385 01:16:25,640 --> 01:16:27,160 Speaker 1: Is that? Is that the country you want to live in? 1386 01:16:27,320 --> 01:16:30,719 Speaker 1: Anonymous allegations that you're supposed to make a decisions, momentous 1387 01:16:30,760 --> 01:16:34,599 Speaker 1: decisions on, and you're not allowed to ask for more information. Now, 1388 01:16:35,720 --> 01:16:41,760 Speaker 1: the willingness for journalists here to abandon transparency and the 1389 01:16:42,120 --> 01:16:47,960 Speaker 1: you know, the they're supposed desire for transparency and they're dogged, 1390 01:16:49,200 --> 01:16:53,360 Speaker 1: unrelenting search for the truth all the time is appalling. 1391 01:16:54,160 --> 01:16:58,000 Speaker 1: It's appalling. By the way, those are those are things 1392 01:16:58,040 --> 01:17:01,240 Speaker 1: that are generally fake. Most people who I know who 1393 01:17:01,280 --> 01:17:03,200 Speaker 1: are journalists really don't show up saying I just want 1394 01:17:03,200 --> 01:17:06,320 Speaker 1: to I just want to break a story that's a 1395 01:17:06,360 --> 01:17:08,559 Speaker 1: big story on a thing. Most journalists that I know, 1396 01:17:08,720 --> 01:17:10,679 Speaker 1: or I want to break a big story that hurts 1397 01:17:10,720 --> 01:17:15,320 Speaker 1: the other team. That's the real goal, because that's how 1398 01:17:15,360 --> 01:17:19,320 Speaker 1: people that's how your audience in mainstream journalism, that's how 1399 01:17:19,360 --> 01:17:20,880 Speaker 1: they come to love you when you do something that 1400 01:17:20,960 --> 01:17:24,680 Speaker 1: takes down a Republican, takes down somebody who opposes the 1401 01:17:24,720 --> 01:17:28,360 Speaker 1: world view that you think you you deserve to have, 1402 01:17:28,520 --> 01:17:32,200 Speaker 1: You deserve to live in a place where that worldview 1403 01:17:32,280 --> 01:17:37,680 Speaker 1: is constantly reflected back to you. So this is uh, 1404 01:17:38,640 --> 01:17:41,120 Speaker 1: it's it is. It is troubling stuff to see this, 1405 01:17:41,200 --> 01:17:45,439 Speaker 1: but nonetheless it is the view, I guess. So so 1406 01:17:45,479 --> 01:17:48,599 Speaker 1: there is there is that aspect of it. I guess 1407 01:17:48,600 --> 01:17:51,200 Speaker 1: we shouldn't think that the view is going to give 1408 01:17:51,280 --> 01:17:55,040 Speaker 1: us a great legal analysis. I don't think anybody would 1409 01:17:55,040 --> 01:17:57,920 Speaker 1: expect that. But also just that this is supposed to 1410 01:17:57,960 --> 01:18:02,360 Speaker 1: be a reflection of mainstream, even Democrats, perception of things. Now, 1411 01:18:02,680 --> 01:18:05,320 Speaker 1: the whistle blower is supposed to be anonymous, we're supposed 1412 01:18:05,320 --> 01:18:07,000 Speaker 1: to believe that the media is not all in the tank. 1413 01:18:07,040 --> 01:18:10,479 Speaker 1: For this whole whistleblower situation, it forces us to ask 1414 01:18:10,479 --> 01:18:13,200 Speaker 1: the question repeatedly, how dumb do they really think we are? 1415 01:18:13,680 --> 01:18:16,240 Speaker 1: How dumb do they think we are? The answer is 1416 01:18:17,640 --> 01:18:20,759 Speaker 1: really dumb, it seems, which makes me kind of annoyed. 1417 01:18:20,800 --> 01:18:22,519 Speaker 1: I think everybody should be a little mo annoyed about 1418 01:18:22,520 --> 01:18:25,080 Speaker 1: this special treat for all of you out in a 1419 01:18:25,200 --> 01:18:28,840 Speaker 1: radio podcast and Pluto TV land my man Jesse Kelly, 1420 01:18:29,080 --> 01:18:31,320 Speaker 1: host of the Jesse Kelly Show, which is a great 1421 01:18:31,360 --> 01:18:35,920 Speaker 1: radio show down in KPRC Houston.

You know, mayors aren't generally 1467 01:21:03,840 --> 01:21:07,760 Speaker 1: dealing with weighty constitutional issues, dealing with issues of war 1468 01:21:07,840 --> 01:21:10,439 Speaker 1: and peace. They're not deploying soldiers abroad. They're not you know, 1469 01:21:10,760 --> 01:21:13,920 Speaker 1: you know mayors. It's like, you know, keep make sure 1470 01:21:13,960 --> 01:21:15,840 Speaker 1: the trash is getting picked up, don't let the city 1471 01:21:15,880 --> 01:21:18,599 Speaker 1: budget run too far on the red and collapse, don't 1472 01:21:18,680 --> 01:21:21,799 Speaker 1: you know, upset and undermine your law you know, police 1473 01:21:21,920 --> 01:21:24,680 Speaker 1: and law enforcement. I mean, there's like it's you know, 1474 01:21:24,920 --> 01:21:28,280 Speaker 1: it's like a managerial job. You know, I mean, it's 1475 01:21:28,360 --> 01:21:30,920 Speaker 1: something that if you just don't be an idiot and 1476 01:21:31,360 --> 01:21:34,320 Speaker 1: and Deblasio can't even manage that, and you'll pretty much 1477 01:21:34,360 --> 01:21:35,760 Speaker 1: be okay as a mayor. But there are a lot 1478 01:21:35,800 --> 01:21:39,240 Speaker 1: of idiot mayors, unfortunately, oh there are. And plus it's 1479 01:21:39,280 --> 01:21:42,040 Speaker 1: New York City and everything's so corrupt, and you know what, 1480 01:21:42,120 --> 01:21:43,679 Speaker 1: I kind of love that it's part of the charm 1481 01:21:43,720 --> 01:21:46,960 Speaker 1: of New York City. But everybody from New York City 1482 01:21:47,000 --> 01:21:50,440 Speaker 1: that's risen to positions of power there has so much baggage. 1483 01:21:50,520 --> 01:21:53,240 Speaker 1: It's it's really tough to be president from there. Now. 1484 01:21:53,280 --> 01:21:56,080 Speaker 1: I want to ask you about the h the ABC 1485 01:21:56,680 --> 01:22:02,519 Speaker 1: Roebock situation, right because I mean, first off, what's your 1486 01:22:02,600 --> 01:22:06,360 Speaker 1: sense of the willingness of the media to kill a 1487 01:22:06,520 --> 01:22:10,760 Speaker 1: story like that? ABC News? But then also I think 1488 01:22:10,840 --> 01:22:13,479 Speaker 1: Tucker called it a cartel, which he just beat me 1489 01:22:13,520 --> 01:22:14,720 Speaker 1: to it. I was going to refer to as a 1490 01:22:14,760 --> 01:22:18,880 Speaker 1: cartel too, ABC, CBS, NBC. They all like have got 1491 01:22:18,960 --> 01:22:21,160 Speaker 1: each other's backs, like they all want to just keep 1492 01:22:21,240 --> 01:22:25,480 Speaker 1: this little fiefdom of where the elite broadcast news networks, 1493 01:22:25,960 --> 01:22:28,120 Speaker 1: when in reality, I mean, it's all just a bunch 1494 01:22:28,120 --> 01:22:29,720 Speaker 1: of libs saying the same things to each other and 1495 01:22:29,800 --> 01:22:33,800 Speaker 1: getting overpaid. Well, it's I mean, now, this story has 1496 01:22:33,880 --> 01:22:36,360 Speaker 1: more of a human element to it than other stories, 1497 01:22:36,400 --> 01:22:38,439 Speaker 1: in my opinion, just because on re loose sight of 1498 01:22:38,520 --> 01:22:43,280 Speaker 1: the fact we all do there are real underage teenage 1499 01:22:43,360 --> 01:22:46,439 Speaker 1: girls in this who had their lives destroyed by this 1500 01:22:46,560 --> 01:22:49,639 Speaker 1: freaking monster, and we shouldn't forget about that. I mean, wow, 1501 01:22:49,680 --> 01:22:51,120 Speaker 1: it's fun to make fun of the media and stuff, 1502 01:22:51,120 --> 01:22:53,599 Speaker 1: where we shouldn't forget about the fact that they're dropping 1503 01:22:53,680 --> 01:22:56,559 Speaker 1: the ball on this or just flat out hiding this issue. 1504 01:22:56,880 --> 01:22:59,240 Speaker 1: It costs people their lives. I mean, it costs people 1505 01:22:59,280 --> 01:23:01,600 Speaker 1: the quality of their lives. So there's that. But to 1506 01:23:01,720 --> 01:23:04,479 Speaker 1: your greater point, that's what we've seen since Trump got 1507 01:23:04,600 --> 01:23:08,360 Speaker 1: into office, is the media never a moment, never even 1508 01:23:08,520 --> 01:23:12,160 Speaker 1: a brief moment of accountability, of holding each other or 1509 01:23:12,240 --> 01:23:16,040 Speaker 1: themselves accountable. They all just locked arms and circled the 1510 01:23:16,080 --> 01:23:20,080 Speaker 1: wagons and decided that they are the First Amendment warriors 1511 01:23:20,160 --> 01:23:23,840 Speaker 1: who are speaking truth to power, and they're defending America 1512 01:23:23,960 --> 01:23:27,160 Speaker 1: and any attacks on them at all should be repelled. 1513 01:23:27,240 --> 01:23:30,920 Speaker 1: They meant to take a moment of account It's a 1514 01:23:30,960 --> 01:23:33,120 Speaker 1: little I mean, you and I take a similar view 1515 01:23:33,160 --> 01:23:37,080 Speaker 1: of these mainstream media outlets. But it's it's amazing to 1516 01:23:37,479 --> 01:23:41,080 Speaker 1: your word that CBS would do the bidding of a 1517 01:23:41,200 --> 01:23:44,200 Speaker 1: competitor ABC and fire. But I believe it's a woman, 1518 01:23:44,200 --> 01:23:47,640 Speaker 1: and Megan Kelly's actually sat down to interviewer fire a 1519 01:23:47,760 --> 01:23:52,759 Speaker 1: woman for blowing the whistle essentially on killing the Epstein 1520 01:23:52,840 --> 01:23:58,200 Speaker 1: story at ABC. CBS fired her for that. But it's 1521 01:23:58,240 --> 01:24:01,960 Speaker 1: not amazing when you consider the fact they consider themselves 1522 01:24:02,000 --> 01:24:04,880 Speaker 1: to be one entity and so many of these people, 1523 01:24:04,960 --> 01:24:07,479 Speaker 1: the higher ups there and the underlings there, as evidenced 1524 01:24:07,479 --> 01:24:09,320 Speaker 1: by the fact this lady was an ABC and then 1525 01:24:09,360 --> 01:24:12,400 Speaker 1: at CV had they just moved in between networks, They 1526 01:24:12,479 --> 01:24:16,240 Speaker 1: bounced from network to network. The CEOs are not sitting 1527 01:24:16,320 --> 01:24:19,240 Speaker 1: around thinking how they can cut the throat of their competitor. 1528 01:24:19,320 --> 01:24:22,800 Speaker 1: They're not at each other's throats. They consider themselves to 1529 01:24:22,960 --> 01:24:25,920 Speaker 1: be an essential part of the country. No different than 1530 01:24:25,960 --> 01:24:28,000 Speaker 1: the way the old guys used to do it. I mean, 1531 01:24:28,080 --> 01:24:30,680 Speaker 1: no different than you know, when we started a war 1532 01:24:30,800 --> 01:24:33,200 Speaker 1: with they we started the Spanish American War with New 1533 01:24:33,280 --> 01:24:35,840 Speaker 1: York City newspapers, you know, thinking they knew better than 1534 01:24:35,880 --> 01:24:38,240 Speaker 1: anyone else. This is the history of the press in 1535 01:24:38,280 --> 01:24:40,680 Speaker 1: the country. They don't they don't compete with each other. 1536 01:24:41,040 --> 01:24:45,080 Speaker 1: It's them versus Republicanism and Jesse, what do you think, 1537 01:24:45,120 --> 01:24:51,360 Speaker 1: though you know about the whistleblower situation, specifically the willingness 1538 01:24:51,960 --> 01:24:55,519 Speaker 1: to keep that whistleblower sacro saying even though we all 1539 01:24:55,600 --> 01:24:59,120 Speaker 1: know his name. And then no media outlets even covered 1540 01:24:59,160 --> 01:25:02,880 Speaker 1: the project Toss. I mean, I should say, ABCCBSNBC, none 1541 01:25:02,920 --> 01:25:06,519 Speaker 1: of them even covered the project very Toss audio of 1542 01:25:06,920 --> 01:25:09,720 Speaker 1: ABC as though it was a news story and a 1543 01:25:10,600 --> 01:25:14,320 Speaker 1: very serious one because of the Jeffrey Epstein connection. Exactly. Well, 1544 01:25:14,439 --> 01:25:16,400 Speaker 1: that's what I mean. It just goes to prove the 1545 01:25:16,479 --> 01:25:19,719 Speaker 1: point I was already making of if you were saying 1546 01:25:19,880 --> 01:25:22,960 Speaker 1: anything against Donald Trump, no matter who you are, whether 1547 01:25:23,040 --> 01:25:26,600 Speaker 1: you're a quote whistleblower or whether you're James Toby, or 1548 01:25:26,680 --> 01:25:29,920 Speaker 1: whether you're a serial killer, you are to be protected 1549 01:25:30,200 --> 01:25:33,280 Speaker 1: and lionized at all costs. You are to be held 1550 01:25:33,400 --> 01:25:35,880 Speaker 1: up as some mantle of all that is good and 1551 01:25:36,120 --> 01:25:38,519 Speaker 1: right in America. But if you go after the video, 1552 01:25:38,560 --> 01:25:40,760 Speaker 1: I mean, you remember Buck, it wasn't that long ago 1553 01:25:41,320 --> 01:25:45,920 Speaker 1: CNN wrote a threatening letter to docs a guy who 1554 01:25:46,040 --> 01:25:50,479 Speaker 1: made a gift online of Trump doing a body slam 1555 01:25:50,640 --> 01:25:54,120 Speaker 1: or something of a CNN sign some stupid little gift 1556 01:25:54,400 --> 01:25:58,000 Speaker 1: that made a couple of people snicker. CNN publicized a 1557 01:25:58,160 --> 01:26:01,280 Speaker 1: threatening letter saying, you will stop doing this, and you 1558 01:26:01,320 --> 01:26:03,280 Speaker 1: will not only pull this down if you do anything 1559 01:26:03,360 --> 01:26:06,040 Speaker 1: like this again, we reserve the right to release your 1560 01:26:06,080 --> 01:26:10,560 Speaker 1: private information. That happens in this country. It's it's outrageous. 1561 01:26:10,720 --> 01:26:15,840 Speaker 1: I want to ask you, Jesse, who is currently the 1562 01:26:15,960 --> 01:26:18,240 Speaker 1: worst Democrat in the race for prett Because we've had 1563 01:26:18,280 --> 01:26:20,559 Speaker 1: a few drop out, Bedo is gone to blah.

You look down if you're a Democrat 1570 01:26:39,080 --> 01:26:41,160 Speaker 1: or you're somebody in the press, and he's made for you. 1571 01:26:41,320 --> 01:26:44,240 Speaker 1: You know, a young, good looking dude.

That's one of 1580 01:27:08,640 --> 01:27:11,040 Speaker 1: the guy's never gotten any attractions. He raises a bunch 1581 01:27:11,080 --> 01:27:12,920 Speaker 1: of money because there's a lot of money and being 1582 01:27:13,040 --> 01:27:15,920 Speaker 1: gay in the Democrat side there just is there's big 1583 01:27:16,000 --> 01:27:18,360 Speaker 1: you know, you can rally a lot of donors being 1584 01:27:18,439 --> 01:27:20,479 Speaker 1: that way.

Good well 1599 01:27:57,320 --> 01:28:01,200 Speaker 1: Jeff Sessions here, I've proved to say President Trump's cabin. 1600 01:28:01,800 --> 01:28:04,880 Speaker 1: Did I write a tell all book? No? Did I 1601 01:28:04,960 --> 01:28:08,640 Speaker 1: go on CNN and attack the President? Nope? Have I 1602 01:28:08,720 --> 01:28:11,920 Speaker 1: said a cross word about our president? Not one time? 1603 01:28:12,280 --> 01:28:15,680 Speaker 1: And I'll tell you why. First, that would be dishonored. 1604 01:28:16,120 --> 01:28:20,120 Speaker 1: I was there to serve his agenda, not mine. Suck 1605 01:28:20,160 --> 01:28:24,600 Speaker 1: at the President doing a great job for America and Alabama, 1606 01:28:24,920 --> 01:28:29,560 Speaker 1: and he has my strong support. Jeff Sessions running for 1607 01:28:29,680 --> 01:28:32,960 Speaker 1: Senate in Alabama. You know you all listen to the 1608 01:28:33,000 --> 01:28:37,080 Speaker 1: show now that I have a I have a soft 1609 01:28:37,120 --> 01:28:40,640 Speaker 1: spot for Jeff Sessions because he did this show like 1610 01:28:40,800 --> 01:28:43,160 Speaker 1: three times when he was a Tourney channel. He called in, 1611 01:28:43,479 --> 01:28:45,080 Speaker 1: we got a bunch of Jeff's and I had to 1612 01:28:45,120 --> 01:28:48,240 Speaker 1: sit down with him at a video interviewer. Jeff Sessions 1613 01:28:48,439 --> 01:28:52,840 Speaker 1: was he's He was not a very nice man. I look, 1614 01:28:53,560 --> 01:28:56,240 Speaker 1: I don't think I don't think that his loyalty to 1615 01:28:56,960 --> 01:28:59,880 Speaker 1: country or loyalty even to Trump was ever in question 1616 01:29:00,040 --> 01:29:01,800 Speaker 1: at all. I think he did what he thought was right. 1617 01:29:02,479 --> 01:29:04,840 Speaker 1: He's just not a He's just a guy. You know. 1618 01:29:04,920 --> 01:29:06,639 Speaker 1: There's some people who are you're in a bar fight 1619 01:29:07,240 --> 01:29:09,920 Speaker 1: and you got a buddy with you. You know, they're 1620 01:29:09,960 --> 01:29:11,760 Speaker 1: a good guy, but like they're just not much much 1621 01:29:11,880 --> 01:29:14,880 Speaker 1: use in a bar fight. And Jeff Sessions as Attorney General, 1622 01:29:15,640 --> 01:29:17,040 Speaker 1: there's not a lot of use in the bar fight, 1623 01:29:17,120 --> 01:29:19,840 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So I think he had 1624 01:29:19,840 --> 01:29:23,560 Speaker 1: a Trump was very very tough on ever since he 1625 01:29:24,240 --> 01:29:27,080 Speaker 1: decided I'm look I am honestly by my bias here 1626 01:29:27,439 --> 01:29:29,040 Speaker 1: Jeff Jeff. I guess he used to listen to the 1627 01:29:29,080 --> 01:29:31,000 Speaker 1: show sometimes and he was Attorney general. He liked it 1628 01:29:31,920 --> 01:29:34,400 Speaker 1: and we would get to have him in the mix. 1629 01:29:34,520 --> 01:29:37,439 Speaker 1: But yeah, I wish him. I wish him well. Man. 1630 01:29:37,439 --> 01:29:39,280 Speaker 1: I think he was very effective in the Senate. He's 1631 01:29:39,320 --> 01:29:42,640 Speaker 1: really one of the only people who, even before the 1632 01:29:42,800 --> 01:29:45,639 Speaker 1: Trump phenomenon happened, was supportive of a lot of Trump's 1633 01:29:46,160 --> 01:29:48,679 Speaker 1: signature policies. I don't think Jeff Sessions gots enough credit 1634 01:29:48,680 --> 01:29:51,120 Speaker 1: for that, especially on immigration. By the way. So you 1635 01:29:51,160 --> 01:29:53,639 Speaker 1: know Jeff Sessions, and he's a smart guy and he's 1636 01:29:53,680 --> 01:29:55,639 Speaker 1: a good dude, And I feel badly because he got. 1637 01:29:56,360 --> 01:29:58,400 Speaker 1: He got put through the meat grinder with the whole 1638 01:29:58,560 --> 01:30:03,160 Speaker 1: Attorney General Russia losing thing. Should he ever have accused himself, No, 1639 01:30:03,600 --> 01:30:07,800 Speaker 1: probably not, But you know he made that decision, and 1640 01:30:08,400 --> 01:30:10,559 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff happened after that. Facebook dot com, 1641 01:30:10,640 --> 01:30:13,720 Speaker 1: slash bucks, sextan a little double roll call today. We'll 1642 01:30:13,720 --> 01:30:17,519 Speaker 1: do some Facebook stuff, to do some email stuff, Adam 1643 01:30:18,360 --> 01:30:22,360 Speaker 1: first in here, Buck on the Avengers, you make me sad. 1644 01:30:23,000 --> 01:30:26,200 Speaker 1: Producer Mark is on the money. I respect your opinion. 1645 01:30:26,680 --> 01:30:30,360 Speaker 1: I humbly ask you to reconsider Shield's high. I knew 1646 01:30:30,400 --> 01:30:34,719 Speaker 1: Mark was good. That's one I'm gonna count throughout the show. Yeah, okay, 1647 01:30:34,840 --> 01:30:37,320 Speaker 1: Mark one buck zero, Mark one buck zero. So far, 1648 01:30:37,479 --> 01:30:42,799 Speaker 1: let's see. Let's see what ends up happening here on um, Matthew, 1649 01:30:43,800 --> 01:30:46,679 Speaker 1: you asked for it. Here we go. I'm sorry, Producer Mark, 1650 01:30:46,720 --> 01:30:49,280 Speaker 1: you are wrong. The New Avenger movies are poor cinema, 1651 01:30:49,320 --> 01:30:51,479 Speaker 1: if they can even be called cinema. Buck, you are 1652 01:30:51,520 --> 01:30:54,160 Speaker 1: wrong too, though, whoa it's like? Is this like a draw? Then? 1653 01:30:54,439 --> 01:30:58,479 Speaker 1: I think hockey is great? Oh all right, that's Mark two. 1654 01:31:00,000 --> 01:31:01,840 Speaker 1: You're right on. He's giving you the hockey win. But 1655 01:31:01,920 --> 01:31:05,200 Speaker 1: I think you take the loss on the Avengers. Let's see, 1656 01:31:05,280 --> 01:31:11,960 Speaker 1: Amanda rites in buck Love the show. I need some 1657 01:31:12,040 --> 01:31:14,599 Speaker 1: book recommendations. I thought i'd asked someone smart and well read, 1658 01:31:14,760 --> 01:31:16,920 Speaker 1: that's you. What would you say are your top five 1659 01:31:17,040 --> 01:31:23,880 Speaker 1: pertinent and instructive reads giving the nation's current situation. Coming 1660 01:31:23,920 --> 01:31:26,519 Speaker 1: Apart by Charles Murray is really interesting and worthwhile, and 1661 01:31:26,600 --> 01:31:29,000 Speaker 1: I think you would enjoy that as a book on 1662 01:31:30,400 --> 01:31:32,599 Speaker 1: what's going on the country. The Great Revolt by Selena 1663 01:31:32,680 --> 01:31:35,960 Speaker 1: Zito is also a very good book about the current situation. 1664 01:31:38,280 --> 01:31:41,120 Speaker 1: Trying to think what else would be I actually saw 1665 01:31:41,479 --> 01:31:43,720 Speaker 1: a book that I have not been able to read yet, 1666 01:31:43,880 --> 01:31:47,479 Speaker 1: but I it is in my my queue of things 1667 01:31:47,560 --> 01:31:49,680 Speaker 1: that I want to read, and it's about here we go, 1668 01:31:50,640 --> 01:31:56,439 Speaker 1: Nathaniel Blake's Oh no, sorry. The book is The Strong Gods. 1669 01:31:57,520 --> 01:31:59,400 Speaker 1: I just saw this today, actually, so I might check 1670 01:31:59,400 --> 01:32:01,400 Speaker 1: out a book called The Strong Gods. I've heard it's 1671 01:32:01,439 --> 01:32:04,439 Speaker 1: about issues going on this country. That was a recommendation, 1672 01:32:04,600 --> 01:32:08,240 Speaker 1: is actually a recommendation from Molly Hemingway, whom I very 1673 01:32:08,360 --> 01:32:11,920 Speaker 1: much respect. So maybe I'll check that one out, The 1674 01:32:12,000 --> 01:32:14,759 Speaker 1: Strong Gods. And I hope that that was a reasonably 1675 01:32:14,800 --> 01:32:17,200 Speaker 1: helpful answer. Amanda, Thank you so much for running in 1676 01:32:18,120 --> 01:32:22,479 Speaker 1: Charlie Right's Heybuck, it's Chuck from Penn State. Would you 1677 01:32:22,520 --> 01:32:24,280 Speaker 1: please give your thoughts on this, opinion of mine a 1678 01:32:24,360 --> 01:32:28,920 Speaker 1: huge reason for the political discourse in our countries. It's 1679 01:32:28,920 --> 01:32:31,320 Speaker 1: here and because people approach complex problems with a lot 1680 01:32:31,360 --> 01:32:34,439 Speaker 1: of with a lot of nuance, with simple answers, and 1681 01:32:34,520 --> 01:32:37,439 Speaker 1: these problems answers are pushed by mainstream media who don't 1682 01:32:37,520 --> 01:32:40,000 Speaker 1: dive into the nuances the problems or the potential solution. 1683 01:32:40,080 --> 01:32:42,680 Speaker 1: Shields high and producer Mark is the man. Look at 1684 01:32:42,680 --> 01:32:46,160 Speaker 1: the producer. Mark's got fans. Producer Mark has fans. I'm 1685 01:32:46,160 --> 01:32:48,680 Speaker 1: gonna call it three. We'll give you a third on 1686 01:32:48,760 --> 01:32:52,120 Speaker 1: that when you get three points on the board, Charlie. 1687 01:32:53,560 --> 01:32:57,920 Speaker 1: Political discourse is deteriorating. There's a lot of reasons of 1688 01:32:58,160 --> 01:33:03,000 Speaker 1: the change in discourse that has resulted, specifically, in my opinion, 1689 01:33:03,240 --> 01:33:07,960 Speaker 1: from social media is a big part of this. People 1690 01:33:08,040 --> 01:33:12,960 Speaker 1: now feel very comfortable and feel very justified in saying 1691 01:33:13,040 --> 01:33:15,320 Speaker 1: things and writing things and doing things on social media 1692 01:33:15,400 --> 01:33:18,000 Speaker 1: that they would absolutely not do face to face to 1693 01:33:18,000 --> 01:33:21,599 Speaker 1: another human being. And then there's also the echo chamber effect, 1694 01:33:21,640 --> 01:33:24,160 Speaker 1: which can be I mean, you can you can exist 1695 01:33:24,240 --> 01:33:25,920 Speaker 1: in a world where all the news you read, if 1696 01:33:26,080 --> 01:33:27,800 Speaker 1: especially if you're a leftism, it's going to be honest. 1697 01:33:28,120 --> 01:33:31,240 Speaker 1: All the news you read all the time supports your worldview, 1698 01:33:31,680 --> 01:33:37,120 Speaker 1: reinforces your political biases, and it's just a constant, oh 1699 01:33:37,240 --> 01:33:40,720 Speaker 1: look at me, look at me, I'm right, uh situation. 1700 01:33:40,880 --> 01:33:44,200 Speaker 1: So yeah, I think that that's that's what I would 1701 01:33:44,200 --> 01:33:49,960 Speaker 1: add in here. Uh, Kristen, I do not agree with 1702 01:33:50,040 --> 01:33:52,559 Speaker 1: your assessment of the Avenger movies. I think they're great, 1703 01:33:53,360 --> 01:33:56,639 Speaker 1: though Endgame was a disappointment. The rest are excellent examples 1704 01:33:56,680 --> 01:33:59,479 Speaker 1: of action movies. Another point for producer Mark Wamp, whom 1705 01:34:00,760 --> 01:34:03,960 Speaker 1: I love when I'm right. Yeah, this is I'm have 1706 01:34:04,080 --> 01:34:07,120 Speaker 1: to skip these ones. It's not fair. I know people, 1707 01:34:07,479 --> 01:34:11,000 Speaker 1: well it's my show. People to start thinking you're right, 1708 01:34:11,120 --> 01:34:14,080 Speaker 1: your name's on the door. Yeah yeah. Well, anyway, the 1709 01:34:14,280 --> 01:34:17,040 Speaker 1: producer Mark is winning the Avengers battle today, that's for sure. 1710 01:34:17,880 --> 01:34:22,519 Speaker 1: Justin the Trump impeachment is straight out of the Democrat playbook. 1711 01:34:22,560 --> 01:34:24,400 Speaker 1: They take a crime they are one hundred percent guilty 1712 01:34:24,400 --> 01:34:27,639 Speaker 1: of and turn it back on the Republicans to change 1713 01:34:27,680 --> 01:34:32,000 Speaker 1: the narrative. Example, Russia collusion. Hillary clearly colluded with Russia 1714 01:34:32,040 --> 01:34:33,840 Speaker 1: to try and win the election, and even prior to 1715 01:34:34,000 --> 01:34:36,760 Speaker 1: the election, so turn it back on Trump to draw 1716 01:34:36,800 --> 01:34:40,519 Speaker 1: attention away from that. Now we have Biden one percent 1717 01:34:40,560 --> 01:34:42,920 Speaker 1: guilty of a quid pro quo, so they can blame 1718 01:34:42,960 --> 01:34:44,960 Speaker 1: Trump and change the narrative, all in an effort to 1719 01:34:45,000 --> 01:34:49,840 Speaker 1: cover their own tracks. The swamp is really deep. Well, 1720 01:34:49,880 --> 01:34:51,720 Speaker 1: it is a tactic. It is a tactic that you 1721 01:34:51,840 --> 01:34:57,000 Speaker 1: see with the left thinking that that they can get 1722 01:34:57,000 --> 01:35:00,519 Speaker 1: away with accusing Conservatives of doing exactly what they're doing, 1723 01:35:00,600 --> 01:35:03,000 Speaker 1: and that that is real. I'm trying to find this 1724 01:35:03,120 --> 01:35:05,519 Speaker 1: for you now as I'm live, you know, doing the 1725 01:35:05,600 --> 01:35:10,360 Speaker 1: show in real time. But there is a there was 1726 01:35:10,400 --> 01:35:11,719 Speaker 1: a story I think it was the New York Times 1727 01:35:11,800 --> 01:35:14,519 Speaker 1: and it was it was an editorial, actually, but will 1728 01:35:14,600 --> 01:35:19,840 Speaker 1: Republicans ever accept political losses? And I just think that's 1729 01:35:19,840 --> 01:35:25,840 Speaker 1: amazing because what we've seen from Democrats is they're very 1730 01:35:26,479 --> 01:35:30,240 Speaker 1: a very real situation of them not accepting. They do 1731 01:35:30,400 --> 01:35:34,400 Speaker 1: not accept political losses. They do not accept that Hillary 1732 01:35:34,479 --> 01:35:38,360 Speaker 1: Clinton lost the election in twenty sixteen. They still think 1733 01:35:38,439 --> 01:35:40,759 Speaker 1: that there's some way that they can justify to themselves 1734 01:35:40,840 --> 01:35:45,599 Speaker 1: acting like that election did not happen. So let me see. 1735 01:35:45,600 --> 01:35:47,559 Speaker 1: It was a New York Times piece. I think I'll 1736 01:35:47,640 --> 01:35:51,800 Speaker 1: try to find it. It was the editorial where they 1737 01:35:51,880 --> 01:35:55,400 Speaker 1: write in The New York Times was once a great newspaper. 1738 01:35:55,439 --> 01:35:59,439 Speaker 1: I mean now it is a straight up propaganda rag 1739 01:35:59,760 --> 01:36:02,120 Speaker 1: of the left. I mean the New York Times is 1740 01:36:02,360 --> 01:36:09,280 Speaker 1: a is a disgrace to journalism, and they've got an 1741 01:36:09,320 --> 01:36:13,840 Speaker 1: article today the billionaires are getting nervous. Yeah, The New 1742 01:36:13,960 --> 01:36:18,840 Speaker 1: York Times was okay with you know, New York Times 1743 01:36:18,960 --> 01:36:22,000 Speaker 1: was okay with billionaires when Carlos Slim was injecting cash 1744 01:36:22,040 --> 01:36:24,799 Speaker 1: in the New York Times. That could stay stay afloat. 1745 01:36:26,880 --> 01:36:29,880 Speaker 1: Here we go. Matt Buck. I'm a few episodes into 1746 01:36:29,960 --> 01:36:32,000 Speaker 1: Jack Ryan and I can't say it's all too bad. 1747 01:36:32,479 --> 01:36:34,720 Speaker 1: Sure it has some lib undertones, but these days you'll 1748 01:36:34,720 --> 01:36:37,080 Speaker 1: find that in almost all content. It's much more watchful 1749 01:36:37,080 --> 01:36:39,560 Speaker 1: than anything on TV. Lighten up a little bit and 1750 01:36:39,720 --> 01:36:44,200 Speaker 1: enjoy a fun storyline. Matt Oss Original Saturday Squad Matt Man. 1751 01:36:44,280 --> 01:36:47,240 Speaker 1: I'm all about light. I'm light as a feather. I'm 1752 01:36:47,320 --> 01:36:50,840 Speaker 1: just chill all the time. Twenty four to seven. Pretty much. 1753 01:36:52,720 --> 01:36:54,600 Speaker 1: I can't agree. I just thought this is not a 1754 01:36:54,640 --> 01:36:56,280 Speaker 1: good show man. I don't know what to say. It's 1755 01:36:56,360 --> 01:36:59,880 Speaker 1: the scene where the ambush scene, the first in the 1756 01:37:00,040 --> 01:37:03,240 Speaker 1: first episode was just weak sauce. Man, it was just bad, 1757 01:37:04,120 --> 01:37:05,880 Speaker 1: It really was. I mean I could come up with 1758 01:37:05,920 --> 01:37:09,600 Speaker 1: a cooler ambush sequence like fifteen minutes of scriptwriting. So 1759 01:37:09,680 --> 01:37:11,320 Speaker 1: it wasn't good. So look, man, to reach his own 1760 01:37:11,360 --> 01:37:14,320 Speaker 1: You're completely entitled to your own opinion, and I'm entitled 1761 01:37:14,360 --> 01:37:22,320 Speaker 1: to be right. Oh just kidding. Uh let's see here, um, Laurie, right, 1762 01:37:23,120 --> 01:37:25,439 Speaker 1: do the night guard for your grinding problem.

I also 1764 01:37:30,760 --> 01:37:34,320 Speaker 1: bought the ultrasonic densure cleaner to clean the guard weekly. 1765 01:37:34,360 --> 01:37:36,200 Speaker 1: It has cut down all the ramifications of grinding. You 1766 01:37:36,200 --> 01:37:38,760 Speaker 1: can do it and get used to it. Oh, Laurie, 1767 01:37:38,760 --> 01:37:40,400 Speaker 1: I'm really gonna wear this thing.

And you know, 1780 01:38:22,120 --> 01:38:24,120 Speaker 1: once you get past the first couple of months, you 1781 01:38:24,160 --> 01:38:26,280 Speaker 1: can do stuff like that in a relation, right, but 1782 01:38:26,320 --> 01:38:28,719 Speaker 1: I can't.

Tests that's true. I don't Also, I look 1797 01:39:05,160 --> 01:39:07,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's good advice. My dentist says, 1798 01:39:07,240 --> 01:39:09,519 Speaker 1: gotta put the night guard in, and I just couldn't 1799 01:39:09,520 --> 01:39:11,080 Speaker 1: do a radio show with it him, that's for sure. 1800 01:39:12,120 --> 01:39:15,240 Speaker 1: Truck writing a copper mounting the voice again. All right, 1801 01:39:15,280 --> 01:39:17,320 Speaker 1: I know that's bad, but that's what it sounds like. 1802 01:39:17,439 --> 01:39:20,840 Speaker 1: I'm trust me. I've gotten used to it. Um. I've 1803 01:39:20,880 --> 01:39:23,960 Speaker 1: tried it now a couple of times. David, Hey, Buck, 1804 01:39:23,960 --> 01:39:26,680 Speaker 1: I'm all for these idiots wanting to reduce the population. 1805 01:39:26,880 --> 01:39:30,639 Speaker 1: They will and we won't. Long term, we win, of course, canes, 1806 01:39:30,880 --> 01:39:33,200 Speaker 1: as in John Maynard said, in the long run, we're 1807 01:39:33,240 --> 01:39:35,280 Speaker 1: all dead. Not necessarily true, my friend, keep up the 1808 01:39:35,280 --> 01:39:40,320 Speaker 1: great work. Take care of Dave. Dave, I like where 1809 01:39:40,360 --> 01:39:42,040 Speaker 1: your head's at on this. You're good, You're a good man. 1810 01:39:43,280 --> 01:39:49,760 Speaker 1: Uh let's see run rights Buck Trump again. Reference syringes 1811 01:39:50,080 --> 01:39:55,080 Speaker 1: in San Francisco. The city says that they intercept them 1812 01:39:55,160 --> 01:39:58,479 Speaker 1: before they get to the oceans, but somehow plastic straws 1813 01:39:58,520 --> 01:40:00,680 Speaker 1: seemed to sail on through, so we must be we 1814 01:40:00,840 --> 01:40:06,559 Speaker 1: must ban them. Amazing shields eye. Interesting points here. You're 1815 01:40:06,560 --> 01:40:10,559 Speaker 1: saying so that the hypodermic needles obviously are a form 1816 01:40:10,640 --> 01:40:13,360 Speaker 1: of waste in the city distributing that waste at the 1817 01:40:13,400 --> 01:40:16,959 Speaker 1: same time that they're banning the distribution of plastic straws, 1818 01:40:18,240 --> 01:40:21,000 Speaker 1: that they would say, obviously, you don't need a straw, 1819 01:40:21,160 --> 01:40:24,920 Speaker 1: you need a hypodermic needle, etc. But I see what 1820 01:40:25,040 --> 01:40:30,720 Speaker 1: you see where you're going with that, Sarah, it's buck. 1821 01:40:30,760 --> 01:40:34,519 Speaker 1: I love your show. Oh well, thank you, Sarah. I'm 1822 01:40:34,560 --> 01:40:36,719 Speaker 1: a teacher of thirteen years and at a public school, 1823 01:40:36,720 --> 01:40:40,200 Speaker 1: and I completely agree with your viewpoint of schools basically 1824 01:40:40,320 --> 01:40:43,120 Speaker 1: being a socialist entity. Here we go. The teachers know 1825 01:40:43,240 --> 01:40:45,320 Speaker 1: them right. It doesn't matter how hard you work or 1826 01:40:45,360 --> 01:40:48,040 Speaker 1: how great of a teacher you are. When a horrible 1827 01:40:48,160 --> 01:40:50,960 Speaker 1: teacher has the same number of years experience as a 1828 01:40:51,040 --> 01:40:53,760 Speaker 1: great teacher, they make exactly the same amount of money 1829 01:40:53,800 --> 01:40:57,599 Speaker 1: and there's no incentive to work hard. I keep getting 1830 01:40:57,680 --> 01:41:01,800 Speaker 1: more jaded each year I teach. Keep doing what you're doing. 1831 01:41:02,040 --> 01:41:04,519 Speaker 1: I keep telling everyone I know to listen to your show. Well, Sarah, 1832 01:41:05,200 --> 01:41:07,519 Speaker 1: thank you so much. Really means a lot. Please do 1833 01:41:07,680 --> 01:41:10,280 Speaker 1: tell people listen to the show. Our podcast numbers last 1834 01:41:10,360 --> 01:41:13,320 Speaker 1: month we're jumping up a bit, which was just in 1835 01:41:13,400 --> 01:41:15,240 Speaker 1: response to me asking all of you to please tell 1836 01:41:15,320 --> 01:41:18,559 Speaker 1: people about the show. So that's great. Please do continue 1837 01:41:18,600 --> 01:41:20,680 Speaker 1: to spread the word. You guys are the best, the 1838 01:41:20,840 --> 01:41:22,760 Speaker 1: best you know, word of mouth that I can have, 1839 01:41:22,960 --> 01:41:24,519 Speaker 1: or from you guys who listened to the show, and 1840 01:41:24,640 --> 01:41:28,840 Speaker 1: gals of course whatever you know, everyone's allow to choose 1841 01:41:28,880 --> 01:41:31,439 Speaker 1: that the pronounced these days, guys, gals, whatever, whatever one's 1842 01:41:31,520 --> 01:41:36,599 Speaker 1: chosen nomenclature would be. And Sarah, Yeah, about about public schools, 1843 01:41:36,640 --> 01:41:38,000 Speaker 1: I mean, this is true from friends of mine who 1844 01:41:38,040 --> 01:41:39,880 Speaker 1: teaching in the public school system, and I've talked them 1845 01:41:39,880 --> 01:41:41,960 Speaker 1: about this and what you're telling me, this is the 1846 01:41:42,000 --> 01:41:43,479 Speaker 1: way that it is, and it is very much a 1847 01:41:43,520 --> 01:41:47,400 Speaker 1: socialist entity. And I really don't like the you know, 1848 01:41:47,479 --> 01:41:49,639 Speaker 1: I've had to I've sat down with teachers. I sat 1849 01:41:49,640 --> 01:41:51,360 Speaker 1: down with the president of the American Federation Teachers a 1850 01:41:51,400 --> 01:41:53,160 Speaker 1: few times, and I worked at the Hill, and it 1851 01:41:53,320 --> 01:41:56,200 Speaker 1: was just the same old wap talking points about how 1852 01:41:56,240 --> 01:41:58,719 Speaker 1: teachers just want to teach and it's just about teaching, 1853 01:41:58,760 --> 01:42:01,120 Speaker 1: and it's about the kids. I've got our future and 1854 01:42:01,280 --> 01:42:03,839 Speaker 1: teachers wanted to teach and the kids and our future, 1855 01:42:03,960 --> 01:42:06,439 Speaker 1: and okay, yeah, but like where are we spending all 1856 01:42:06,479 --> 01:42:09,439 Speaker 1: this money? Are why are outcomes on any better? Why 1857 01:42:09,560 --> 01:42:12,080 Speaker 1: are we not seeing test scores rise. Why are charter 1858 01:42:12,160 --> 01:42:13,960 Speaker 1: schools able to fix this problem in a way that 1859 01:42:14,040 --> 01:42:16,960 Speaker 1: public schools can't, even the public schools have greater resources, Like, 1860 01:42:17,320 --> 01:42:19,960 Speaker 1: that's the conversation that we should have. You know, why 1861 01:42:20,160 --> 01:42:25,560 Speaker 1: isn't parental involvement more a part of school curriculum? And 1862 01:42:26,080 --> 01:42:27,360 Speaker 1: I want to stay involved. I don't mean doing the 1863 01:42:27,400 --> 01:42:30,040 Speaker 1: homework with the kids, but you know, you know, parents 1864 01:42:30,760 --> 01:42:32,880 Speaker 1: need to be involved. And people like to think up, 1865 01:42:32,920 --> 01:42:34,960 Speaker 1: I dropped my kids at the school the school hands. No, 1866 01:42:35,080 --> 01:42:37,960 Speaker 1: the parents need to show up. They need to be engaged. 1867 01:42:38,000 --> 01:42:40,240 Speaker 1: You need to make sure the kid feels supported in 1868 01:42:40,280 --> 01:42:43,200 Speaker 1: the endeavors in the school. You know, there's an education 1869 01:42:43,320 --> 01:42:45,760 Speaker 1: process for parents as well. I don't mean education as 1870 01:42:45,800 --> 01:42:48,160 Speaker 1: it in the classroom necessarily, but learning about how to 1871 01:42:48,200 --> 01:42:50,080 Speaker 1: be supportive of their kids. And I don't know this 1872 01:42:50,120 --> 01:42:51,960 Speaker 1: from personal experience because I don't have any kids yet, 1873 01:42:52,040 --> 01:42:54,000 Speaker 1: But I know this from the teachers who have been 1874 01:42:54,080 --> 01:42:55,880 Speaker 1: in the trenches doing this stuff. And they'll tell you 1875 01:42:56,439 --> 01:43:00,400 Speaker 1: that parental involvement is an enormous factor in success or 1876 01:43:00,479 --> 01:43:05,839 Speaker 1: failure for kids, regardless of race, socioeconomic status, etc. Parental 1877 01:43:05,880 --> 01:43:11,439 Speaker 1: involvement really really matters. Here we go Tim but given 1878 01:43:11,479 --> 01:43:13,479 Speaker 1: the power and extend the cartels in Mexico, which were 1879 01:43:13,479 --> 01:43:15,800 Speaker 1: brought to light this week, how long before Mexico is 1880 01:43:15,800 --> 01:43:17,960 Speaker 1: considered a failed state? And if and when that happens, 1881 01:43:18,000 --> 01:43:20,799 Speaker 1: what would our plan be? Failed state across our borders 1882 01:43:20,800 --> 01:43:23,519 Speaker 1: a huge security risk and becomes an even easier entry 1883 01:43:23,560 --> 01:43:29,120 Speaker 1: point for terrorists. It's a fair question. I mean, Mexico 1884 01:43:29,320 --> 01:43:31,519 Speaker 1: is not yet a failed state because it does have 1885 01:43:32,400 --> 01:43:35,880 Speaker 1: a government apparatus that is largely still functional. And let's 1886 01:43:36,120 --> 01:43:38,880 Speaker 1: just remember that there are there are portions or parts 1887 01:43:38,920 --> 01:43:42,320 Speaker 1: of Mexico that are very actually quite safe. There are 1888 01:43:42,400 --> 01:43:45,400 Speaker 1: parts of Mexico that would not be problematic to go visit, 1889 01:43:47,400 --> 01:43:50,000 Speaker 1: you know, an interesting what really we'd have to think 1890 01:43:50,000 --> 01:43:53,479 Speaker 1: more about how do we define a failed state? You know, 1891 01:43:53,560 --> 01:43:56,160 Speaker 1: state that no longer has a functioning government or a 1892 01:43:56,200 --> 01:44:02,760 Speaker 1: government that can exercise its sovereignty enforced tracks and the 1893 01:44:02,880 --> 01:44:05,800 Speaker 1: rule of law. Is that what a failed state really is? 1894 01:44:06,760 --> 01:44:08,599 Speaker 1: We have to look into the specifics of the definition. 1895 01:44:08,720 --> 01:44:11,400 Speaker 1: Mexico is not yet a failed state, but the power 1896 01:44:12,000 --> 01:44:14,960 Speaker 1: of the cartels and the ability of the narco traffickers 1897 01:44:15,439 --> 01:44:17,639 Speaker 1: to take on the federal take on the Mexican federal 1898 01:44:17,720 --> 01:44:23,080 Speaker 1: government head on, and that's very concerning. That's something that 1899 01:44:23,400 --> 01:44:25,839 Speaker 1: we're going to have to have more of a policy 1900 01:44:25,880 --> 01:44:27,840 Speaker 1: focus on. I mean, Mexico is a bigger issue for 1901 01:44:27,920 --> 01:44:30,040 Speaker 1: US than Syria. By the way, no one ever seems 1902 01:44:30,080 --> 01:44:31,760 Speaker 1: to think about this, at least in the media, But 1903 01:44:32,240 --> 01:44:35,280 Speaker 1: Mexico and the cartels and the drug war much bigger 1904 01:44:35,360 --> 01:44:38,400 Speaker 1: day to day concern in our lives than Syria. All Right, 1905 01:44:38,400 --> 01:44:40,280 Speaker 1: I hope you've enjoyed the show. My friends, I love 1906 01:44:40,360 --> 01:44:42,400 Speaker 1: doing it. Producer Mark is going to miss you all. 1907 01:44:42,479 --> 01:44:45,240 Speaker 1: He sends you hugs. He's not always grouchy.
