1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,360 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of The Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:04,720 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. 3 00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:09,280 Speaker 2: Wednesday edition of Clay and Buck kicks off right now. 4 00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:12,400 Speaker 2: Technically the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, but we 5 00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:13,200 Speaker 2: like Clay and Buck. 6 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:13,440 Speaker 3: Two. 7 00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:16,880 Speaker 2: We've got a lot to talk about tonight. You know this, 8 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:23,239 Speaker 2: there's some political throwdowns in the making. You have Ron 9 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:30,040 Speaker 2: DeSantis versus Nicky Haley up on stage at CNN. On 10 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,519 Speaker 2: Fox News. On the other side of the dial, you're 11 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:37,440 Speaker 2: going to have a Trump town hall. Trump will be 12 00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 2: going into Iowa as a candidate who has not appeared 13 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:44,960 Speaker 2: at a single debate, and the people that are all 14 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,320 Speaker 2: in on Trump would say, look at that strategy. Hasn't 15 00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 2: exactly slowed him down, has it. But we'll talk a 16 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 2: little bit. I think about some last minute Iowa possibilities, 17 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 2: and we know we're just a few days away Monday 18 00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 2: will be the Iowa Caucuses. Also a story that's getting 19 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:05,639 Speaker 2: a lot of attention on the immigration front. You've got 20 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 2: New York City high school students, about two thousand of them, 21 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 2: forced into remote learning because New York City's getting hit 22 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:20,399 Speaker 2: by a storm and they have to move thousands of 23 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 2: illegal migrants into the high school that these kids thought 24 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 2: that they were going to as a high school, so 25 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 2: they're now doing remote learning for a few days. It 26 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:34,640 Speaker 2: just shows you both the priorities where they're placed and 27 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:38,039 Speaker 2: the resource strain that that city's under illegal immigration very 28 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:43,199 Speaker 2: much in the spotlight, Clay. There's more also on the 29 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 2: mysterious few days of the Biden regime, neither knowing nor 30 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 2: caring where it's Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin was. Steve Doocy. 31 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 2: Did you see that throwdown Steve Greasy? Yeah, really flustered 32 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 2: Admiral Kirby by just saying, why should we listen to 33 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 2: you guys if you're gonna lie about something like that. 34 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:07,279 Speaker 2: We'll get to that a little bit. Also some follow 35 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 2: up on the Alaska Airlines flight. If you saw that 36 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 2: that lost a piece of the fuselage like a window 37 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:18,360 Speaker 2: basically disappeared. And then Fauci on kids suffering learning loss. 38 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 2: We will take Fauci to task for being the lab 39 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 2: coat stalin. 40 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 3: That he is. 41 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 2: But Clay, I wasn't expecting this one on my bingo cards, 42 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 2: so to speak. You had Hunter Biden today making a 43 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 2: surprise appearance during a Contempt of Congress hearing, and he 44 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 2: is being health in contempt, right, rather, that's the point 45 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 2: of the hearing. He shows up, sits in the front 46 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 2: row with his lawyer, Abby Lowe, doesn't say anything. Congress erupts, 47 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 2: you know what's going on here? I guess he just 48 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,520 Speaker 2: figures got to play this out in the court of 49 00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 2: public opinion instead of the actual court or well in Congress. 50 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:00,640 Speaker 3: I suppose. 51 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm trying to work through it from a because really, 52 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: as with Trump, you're dealing with a simultaneous political and 53 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 1: legal issue, and sometimes the political moves are not the 54 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 1: moves that a lawyer would suggest, and vice versa. And 55 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:25,639 Speaker 1: so the Democrats are actually in a really difficult spot 56 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: with Hunter Biden right now because when he didn't show 57 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 1: up for his deposition. If you follow the precedent of 58 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: Steve Bannon, who was prosecuted for refusing to comply with 59 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 1: a congressional subpoena and provide testimony, and I believe it's 60 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 1: currently waiting sentencing or there's an appeal. I mean, he 61 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 1: was convicted in a DC court for refusing to comply 62 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: with a congressional subpoena, and Democrats made a big deal. 63 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 1: They're all on the record as saying you have to 64 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: show up when you have a congressional subpoena. This is 65 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 1: a very serious issue you if you don't comply with 66 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: congressional subpoenas, you should be prosecuted and you should have 67 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 1: consequences under the law. My bet is that Hunter is 68 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 1: going to try to argue from a legal perspective and 69 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,840 Speaker 1: that this undergirds the politics of what he's done by 70 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: showing up twice on Capitol Hill, once the first time 71 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 1: on the day he was scheduled to testify, to having 72 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,600 Speaker 1: the press conference outside, saying he's happy to do it, 73 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 1: but he wants to do it in public, which is 74 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: the way the second part of House testimony congressional testimony works. 75 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,279 Speaker 1: I think Buck they're going to try to argue that 76 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 1: he's not in the same boat as Steve Bannon because 77 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 1: he's willing to testify. There's just a dispute over how 78 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: that testimony should be taking place. But as a matter 79 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:56,159 Speaker 1: of law, I think Republicans should refer hold him in 80 00:04:56,279 --> 00:05:01,160 Speaker 1: contempt and refer this to Merrick Garland and put this 81 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,719 Speaker 1: on the plate of the Attorney General and say why 82 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: does Hunter Biden not get the same treatment as Steve 83 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 1: Bannon for refusing to comply with a subpoena. And then 84 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 1: I think big picture, and I'm curious how you would 85 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 1: analyze this, Buck. 86 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,799 Speaker 2: I think big picture, this thing's not going. 87 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,479 Speaker 1: Away for Joe Biden. And this was why refusing to 88 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 1: sign off on that sweetheart deal was such a big deal. 89 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,719 Speaker 1: Everybody's got to talk about Hunter Biden again now because 90 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 1: he showed up like this. 91 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 2: They were this close the stroke of a pen from 92 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:37,799 Speaker 2: a judge for making the entire Hunter Biden thing completely 93 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 2: go away, as though it had never happened before this close, 94 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 2: and they thought they were going to get it too. 95 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 2: I think what Hunter's doing here, he's, in a sense, 96 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,840 Speaker 2: taking a page from the Trump playbook. The difference is 97 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,840 Speaker 2: Hunter's actually committed like dozens and dozens of obvious crimes 98 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 2: and Trump they're prosecuting because they hate him. But he's 99 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 2: effectively showing up up in a defiant I don't recognize 100 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 2: the jurisdiction of this show trial. 101 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 3: You know what I mean. 102 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,799 Speaker 2: It's it's meant to be. It's meant to be Hunter 103 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 2: Biden giving Democrats a show of defiance so they can 104 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:17,160 Speaker 2: tell themselves the obvious lies that we've heard things like, Oh, 105 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 2: Hunter's only being prosecuted because he's Joe Biden's son. That's 106 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 2: the opposite of the truth. He's only not sitting in 107 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 2: prison because he's Joe Biden's son. Right, It's actually in 108 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 2: the in the complete opposite direction. And I think, but 109 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:34,919 Speaker 2: you see what Nancy Mace said, Yeah, she says he 110 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 2: has no. 111 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 3: I think we have that audio? Do we do? 112 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 2: Do we have these audios? 113 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 3: Do we have the Nancy Mace audio? 114 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 2: But one let it rip? 115 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,919 Speaker 4: My first question is who bribed Hunter Biden to be 116 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 4: here today? 117 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 2: That's my first question. 118 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 4: Second question, you are the epitome of white privilege coming 119 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 4: into the Oversight Committee, spitting in our face, ignoring a 120 00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 4: congressional subpoena to be deposed. 121 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:00,719 Speaker 2: What are you afraid of? 122 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 4: You have no balls to come up here, mister chairman. 123 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 5: Point of mister chairman, if lady, if the general, if 124 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 5: the general lady wants to hear from Hunter Biden, we 125 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 5: can hear from him right now, mister chairman, Let's take 126 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 5: a vote and hear from unter Biden. 127 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 2: What are you afraid? Hold on order or speaking? 128 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 4: Are women allowed to speak? 129 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 5: To keep interrupting me, I'll interrupt you know that he's 130 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 5: a lady. 131 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 3: I think that. 132 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 4: Uh that Hunter Biden should be arrested right here, right 133 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 4: now and go straight to jail. 134 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 3: Straight to jail, straight to jail. 135 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 2: She wants to send it. 136 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: I think we also have Hunter Biden storming out when 137 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 1: Marjorie Taylor Green is recognized to speak at the hearing. 138 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 3: Me, this all just happened. 139 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what I would advise, purely from a 140 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,119 Speaker 1: legal perspective in a sec here, two back, but listen 141 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: to cut two. 142 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,679 Speaker 6: Chicks, Miss Green from Georgia for thank you, mister chairman. 143 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 6: Excuse me, Hunter, Apparently you're afraid of my words and 144 00:07:56,480 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 6: why you ah? I like to reclaim my time, mister chairman. 145 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 2: Verst their bubble. Wow, that's too bad. 146 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 6: I think it's clear and obvious for everyone watching this 147 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 6: hearing today that Hunter Biden is terrified of strong conservative 148 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 6: Republican women because he can't even face my words as 149 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 6: I was about to speak to him. 150 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 2: What a coward. I gotta get the title to Nancy 151 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,439 Speaker 2: Mace on this one. I'm just gonna say she went 152 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 2: after a little harder. 153 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 1: Here's my legal analysis. I don't understand why Hunter Biden 154 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: didn't just show up and take the fifth because it 155 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,839 Speaker 1: feels to me like one of the challenges of being 156 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:50,079 Speaker 1: a lawyer is sometimes your client's an idiot and he 157 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: wants to fight, even when fighting is the bad advice. 158 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 2: He is effectively challenging Congress in this case. Obviously they 159 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 2: Wereublicans in Congress in a way. 160 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 1: That under he could be. And I don't even know 161 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: where they put him. They have like their own jail 162 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 1: in the House of Representatives. It doesn't really happen, so 163 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 1: we don't know, but that has happened since the eighteen thirties. 164 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,599 Speaker 1: I was reading about this. They have the legal authority 165 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 1: to actually arrest him for refusing to comply with the subpoenia. 166 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 2: No, it used to be that they would remove members 167 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 2: of Congress and even federal judges for like drunkenness on 168 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 2: the bench. I mean, if you go back in American history, 169 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,080 Speaker 2: there's some crazy stuff that we don't even remember anymore. 170 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 2: But the point about Hunter here Clay is he is 171 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:38,960 Speaker 2: he is visually publicly undermining the entire this I'm saying 172 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 2: what his strategy is undermining the process. To say this 173 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 2: whole thing is a sham, it would be like walking 174 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 2: into a criminal court and saying to the judge, you know, 175 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 2: I don't recognize your jurisdiction in this matter. Now the 176 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,200 Speaker 2: judge's going to throw your butt in prison. That's not 177 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,559 Speaker 2: happening here because they're not going to do it. And 178 00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 2: I think they Hunter needs a narrative of he's a 179 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,679 Speaker 2: martyr and they're only going after him because he's Joe 180 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 2: Biden's son. I know, everyone in this audience laughs, that's absurd. 181 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 2: Of course, it's absurd, but it gives them the cover, right, 182 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 2: It gives them enough leeway that it takes a little 183 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:17,559 Speaker 2: bit of this of the sting out of this politically 184 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:18,559 Speaker 2: for the Democrats. 185 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: I think that this is blowing up in the Democrats' faces. 186 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 1: And I think one of the challenges don't talk about 187 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 1: Hunters Hunter's perspective, you know, I think, yeah, yeah, But 188 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 1: I think one of the arguments you'll hear is that 189 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 1: Joe Biden's advisors have difficulty talking to him about Hunter 190 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 1: because this is according to the stories that have been written, 191 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 1: he gets so emotional he won't talk about it in 192 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: a rational fashion. I think that every time Hunter shows 193 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 1: up and engages in historyonics and theatrics like this, it 194 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,320 Speaker 1: just shines a spotlight on the fact that he didn't 195 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 1: pay his taxes, and there are more people out there 196 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: who become aware of Hunter Biden. Remember, everybody in our audience, 197 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 1: we all know this Hunter Biden story. There's a lot 198 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 1: of people out there in America who bought into the 199 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 1: idea that this was all trumped up, that there was 200 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 1: nothing to it. And every time the media has to 201 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 1: talk about these Hunter Biden things, it's hard to argue 202 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:15,719 Speaker 1: to being unfairly treated when you didn't pay millions of 203 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: dollars in taxes. I mean, this is not a complicated 204 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: story for most Americans. I think to understand, Hunter looks 205 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: like what he is every time he does this, a spoiled, 206 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,079 Speaker 1: entitled brat who believes rules don't apply to him. 207 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 2: There are a lot of things where we could still 208 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 2: feel like we have to say, you know, alleged or 209 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 2: we know about the tax issue, he was going to 210 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,720 Speaker 2: plead guilty on the tax issue, and that's what you 211 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 2: did or you didn't, right, I mean, you know you 212 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,200 Speaker 2: either paid or you didn't pay. He's never said that 213 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 2: he paid the taxes. He obviously didn't pay the taxes. 214 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 2: He had to pay massive fines already as a result 215 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 2: of that. I think it's it's interesting to see though, 216 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 2: when they say that Joe Biden, obviously he's upset about it. 217 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:55,839 Speaker 2: It's his son. But Hunter's not going to prison. I'm 218 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 2: going to tell everybody this right now because it's and 219 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 2: this probably isn't anything that anyone wants to hear. Not 220 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:03,319 Speaker 2: only is Hunter Biden not going to prison, he will 221 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 2: have this all wiped away and he'll be a rich 222 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 2: guy again by this time next year, or be on 223 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 2: the way to being a rich guy again, because what's 224 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 2: the downside for him? As much as we sit here, 225 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 2: Clay and look at what a clown he isn't here. 226 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 2: Here's the this is cut three. This is this reporter. 227 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,559 Speaker 2: This is the kind of question that Hunter Biden's getting 228 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,320 Speaker 2: these days. Play three? Did you please? 229 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 7: I'll answer your question if you beat quiet and let 230 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 7: me make a statement. 231 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 2: Cracked you normally smoke, mister Biden? Have you heard that? 232 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 2: What kind of crack do you normally smoke? Mister Biden? 233 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 1: Now of crack? By the way, I don't even know, 234 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 1: do you know I'm not up to speed. I'm very 235 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: happy to know. I'm very happy to not know the answer. 236 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:45,679 Speaker 1: To that question at all, although it is funny that 237 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:47,440 Speaker 1: that's kind of what a laughing stock has become. 238 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, So anyway, I think we'll get into 239 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 2: some of this.

Then multiply by five 244 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 2: or ten. That's how many hours a cyber hacker works 245 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 2: trying to steal your data.

I just 264 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 1: we're talking about the Hunter Biden situation, and there's a 265 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 1: lot of stories out there that are certainly worth discussing. 266 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:15,320 Speaker 3: We'll also dive. 267 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 1: Into this Detroit News poll that has Donald Trump up 268 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 1: in a big way over Joe Biden in a degree 269 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 1: with which they've been polling at the Detroit News since 270 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen. 271 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 3: Maybe we'll get into that in the next hour. 272 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: But Buck, I just keep coming back to this Hunter 273 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: Biden situation, and I can only imagine that the White 274 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 1: House is losing its mind. I mean, they can't talk 275 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:46,240 Speaker 1: to Joe Biden about this. But every time Hunter shows 276 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 1: up and creates a story like this, it actually reinforces 277 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 1: the preferential treatment that he's receiving. And if Republicans make 278 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 1: the smart decision and refer Hunter Biden to Merrick Garland 279 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 1: for contempt for refusing to show up for this congressional subpoena. 280 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:06,640 Speaker 1: It's going to be very difficult for them to argue 281 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 1: why Hunters shouldn't suffer the same consequences as Steve but Bannon, 282 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,200 Speaker 1: and it just puts Merrick Garland in a very difficult 283 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: spot again. Now you're right, and we've been talking about 284 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 1: this for some time. Joe Biden is ultimately going to 285 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 1: provide percent to get out of jail free card for Hunter. 286 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 1: So I think that undergirds all of the decisions he's making. 287 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 1: But in the meantime, we're ten months from an election 288 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 1: and the fact that Hunter Biden's situation is not being solved. 289 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 2: I do think it's amazing. I don't think anybody cares. 290 00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 2: I think I think the right wing cares. I think 291 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 2: the the voting for Trump or sorry I was gonna say, 292 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 2: voting for Trump for a third time, we don't. I'm 293 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,240 Speaker 2: getting all the angry emails about how it isn't over, 294 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 2: and I get it. 295 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 5: I know. 296 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. Okay, de Santis could win the whole thing, 297 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 2: Nikki Haley could win the whole thing. They could come 298 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,160 Speaker 2: from behind. Point here being Clay, I don't think that 299 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 2: anybody who's an undecided voter gives a gives a you know, 300 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 2: a care. I can say that on radio, gives a 301 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 2: care about anything Hunter Biden related. At this point, I 302 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 2: just feel like it's so we're numb to it. I 303 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 2: think it mattered more four year or three years ago 304 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 2: to people because I was like, wait a second, what's 305 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 2: going on here, Clay. We've seen the guy with like 306 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 2: the pink boa and his undies and all the photos, 307 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 2: and I think people are numb to it now, and 308 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 2: I don't I get that on the Republican side. I 309 00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 2: still think there are tons of people that didn't know 310 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 2: any of the Hunter Biden's story in twenty twenty that 311 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,120 Speaker 2: now are going to know it in twenty twenty four 312 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 2: enough to affect the election. 313 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 3: You really I think it? 314 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:45,680 Speaker 1: I think it, Yeah, I do, because I think it 315 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 1: hurts overall Joe Biden's entire brand because if your son 316 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 1: is corrupt, and Joe Biden argued, hey, I'm going to 317 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 1: restore decency and decorum to the White House. I'm not 318 00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 1: talking about probably anybody in this audience, because if you're 319 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 1: listening to us right now, hey, congratulations you know what 320 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 1: the truth. 321 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,360 Speaker 2: Actually, you're smart and well informed in American politics, yes, 322 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 2: and have excellent taste in radio. That's right exactly, But 323 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 2: there are so many people out there that are completely clueless, 324 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 2: and you know those people are going to care that 325 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:21,640 Speaker 2: Hunter Biden is facing. I think I think starts. 326 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 1: I think it starts to cut through the entire brand 327 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 1: of Joe Biden. 328 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:29,879 Speaker 3: Ultimately, the older I get and I may be. 329 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: Crazy on this, I think everything is brand if you study, 330 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 1: but has collapsed. 331 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:40,439 Speaker 2: What what we know is it's it's They're gonna make 332 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,720 Speaker 2: the whole thing a referendum on Trump, Who's destroying the 333 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,720 Speaker 2: planet in America, and the end of the you know 334 00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 2: what I mean is a little is a pip squeak. 335 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,360 Speaker 1: Compared to this, It's easier to make the argument that 336 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: Trump is a unique threat and that he is an 337 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:58,959 Speaker 1: awful human being when you are on the other side 338 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:02,480 Speaker 1: of sterling character and repute. And I don't think Joe 339 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: Biden has that argument. 340 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 2: I think they're just gonna say he loves his son, 341 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 2: it's not his fault he's old. But what Clay. First 342 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 2: of all, Michelle Obambi, who say's gonna be the president 343 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:14,679 Speaker 2: Eddie or of the nominee anyway, so it doesn't even 344 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 2: matter with him. I think this is more evidence of 345 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,479 Speaker 2: why he's not gonna be the nominee.

Well, why are they having 367 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:12,920 Speaker 7: to stay home? 368 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:14,120 Speaker 3: They're having to stay. 369 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 7: Home because the state government is commandeering or the city 370 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 7: government is commandeering the school to house illegal aliens. You 371 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 7: talk about putting Americans last, you're having these kids, You're 372 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 7: depriving these kids of in person education to be able 373 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:31,159 Speaker 7: to house people that don't have a right to be 374 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 7: here to begin with. That's Joe Biden's America in a nutshell. 375 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 2: So that was Florida Governor Ron DeSantis at a town 376 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 2: hall last night in Iowa talking about the situation in 377 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:49,399 Speaker 2: New York City. Right now, you got around two thousand. 378 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:52,119 Speaker 3: People. 379 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:56,439 Speaker 2: Two thousand people have been moved from a tent shelter 380 00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 2: on a Floyd Floyd Bennett Field former airplane runway in 381 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:05,800 Speaker 2: southern Brooklyn. They move because of heavy storms expected, so 382 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:11,439 Speaker 2: they shut down a high school to move the migrants into. 383 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 2: You know a couple of things on this one play. 384 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 2: You know, one thing that I think people are understanding 385 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:25,479 Speaker 2: now more than ever is that the migrant population, especially 386 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,639 Speaker 2: when it congregates, particularly in one city, it comes with 387 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 2: considerable expense to the taxpayer. And you also recognize that 388 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 2: this is a little bit like a mobile refugee camp. 389 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 2: I mean that is what asylum seekers are, a form 390 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 2: of refugee. So when you have tent cities in New 391 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 2: York for the migrants, it is a refugee camp. And 392 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 2: when they show you what their priorities are, meaning the 393 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:54,400 Speaker 2: city of New York that instead of finding some way 394 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 2: to house these migrants that does not displace all these kids, 395 00:20:58,560 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 2: they go, oh, just stay home. 396 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 8: You know. 397 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 2: Now all these parents at this high school to have 398 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:07,920 Speaker 2: to deal with with the displacement. It makes all of 399 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 2: this real to people. And then when you start to 400 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:13,359 Speaker 2: look at what the numbers are, it's about seven million 401 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 2: six point eight million I think is the official number 402 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 2: right now. It's going to be more like eight million 403 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,119 Speaker 2: by the or seven million nine hundred thousand there we 404 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:27,959 Speaker 2: go or elsewhere. And they're causing tremendous disruption and resource usage, 405 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:30,879 Speaker 2: and what exactly are we getting for all of this, 406 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 2: and what is the Bide administration going to do about it? 407 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 2: I think it also crystallizes who bears the cost when illegal. 408 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 1: Immigrants are coming into the country. It's very often the 409 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 1: people who are at the bottom of the food chain 410 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,360 Speaker 1: in the first place. I think I saw that two 411 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,399 Speaker 1: thirds of the students that are being kicked out of 412 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 1: this school are on free or reduced lunch at that 413 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:59,400 Speaker 1: school in New York. So much like with COVID, when 414 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:04,119 Speaker 1: if you were fortunate enough to live in a neighborhood 415 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:07,919 Speaker 1: in a county, in a community that stayed open, I was. 416 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 3: Your kids got to go to school. 417 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 1: If you were unfortunate enough to live in predominantly blue cities, 418 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 1: your kids were out of school for almost two years 419 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 1: in some of these places, and the kids that were 420 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:23,400 Speaker 1: out of school were the poorest among us. So it's 421 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:29,120 Speaker 1: very easy when you are rich comparatively and you get 422 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 1: to work from home and you sit in with the 423 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,480 Speaker 1: laptop in your lap, and you work for a couple 424 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 1: of hours, then you pop on Netflix, then you hit 425 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 1: the gym, have a nice little lunch, then you come 426 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 1: back and tune in for another hour to sit around 427 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 1: and say, oh, let's have lockdowns. Oh these are illegal immigrants, 428 00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 1: let's support them. But I think what you're seeing Buck. 429 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 1: Do you remember when in Chicago they kicked kids out 430 00:22:55,000 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: who were playing football from their locker room and their to. 431 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:02,960 Speaker 3: Give it over to illegal immigrants. 432 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 1: And there was a big protest in Chicago from that 433 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,959 Speaker 1: local community saying, wait a minute. These kids are sports 434 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 1: are helping to keep them on the straight and narrow, 435 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:13,200 Speaker 1: giving them an opportunity to focus on something, to have 436 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 1: coaches and a reason sometimes to stay in school. 437 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:20,120 Speaker 3: And suddenly the illegal immigrants get it. New York City. 438 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,800 Speaker 1: Remember when they took over the soccer fields I believe 439 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 1: in Brooklyn and put up tent housing and suddenly the 440 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:28,720 Speaker 1: kids can't go play soccer anymore because they took over 441 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 1: the park and they're giving it over to illegal immigrants. 442 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:33,560 Speaker 1: What a lot of people who hadn't given much thought 443 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 1: to this are suddenly realizing is there are only so 444 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:41,440 Speaker 1: many resources, and when you are a high tax community 445 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 1: that is losing residents as New York is, you're not 446 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: able to provide the same services to everyone that you 447 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:50,239 Speaker 1: might have been in the past. And you know who 448 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:53,719 Speaker 1: gets the short end of it, poor citizens, in favor 449 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 1: of illegals. And I think that's resonating in big cities 450 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:00,399 Speaker 1: in a way that maybe it hasn't in past with 451 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 1: the immigrant crisis. 452 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 2: I feel like I keep saying it, but it just 453 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:08,680 Speaker 2: it's almost unfathomable to me that the city of New York, 454 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 2: my hometown, is planning a forty percent reduction in street 455 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 2: trash can pick up. Yeah, well, that's just gonna be. 456 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 2: You're gonna have, oh, you're gonna have overflowing trash cans everywhere. 457 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,719 Speaker 2: You're gonna have people just throwing their trash all over 458 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 2: the streets. New York City is going to in the 459 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:29,639 Speaker 2: next year really closely resemble a third World country on 460 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:32,400 Speaker 2: the streets because of all the trash that's gonna happen. 461 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 2: And people are saying, well, why are they doing this 462 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 2: budget cuts to your point, Clay, because they're spending billions 463 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 2: of dollars. It turns out when you have one hundred 464 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 2: thousand people and you're providing all of their food, all 465 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:47,000 Speaker 2: of their housing, all their medical care in addition to 466 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 2: whatever you were spending before that things can get really expensive. 467 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 2: Never mind the fact that they were putting some of 468 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 2: these migrants up in like four star hotels for weeks 469 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:59,399 Speaker 2: on end. The whole thing is absurd. Find me another 470 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,679 Speaker 2: country that would do any of this. Before people start saying, oh, 471 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 2: the migrants, they need this. 472 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:05,640 Speaker 3: And if you don't like it you're racist. 473 00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 2: What other country does this? What other country shuts down 474 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,080 Speaker 2: their local high school so that they can have mine. 475 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:12,399 Speaker 2: By the way, if you tell me the country, I'm 476 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:14,119 Speaker 2: gonna say, yeah. And how's that working out for them? 477 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 2: There might be a couple in Europe. It's not going 478 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:16,160 Speaker 2: very well. 479 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 6: No. 480 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 1: And the other thing on this is and it's important 481 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 1: for you to understand. If you're out there and you're saying, well, 482 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:24,640 Speaker 1: I don't really care what's going on in New York City, 483 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 1: you know they can make their own decisions this, you know, 484 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 1: make them their sanctuary cities. 485 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:32,680 Speaker 2: Let's make them deal with it. You know what they're 486 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 2: trying to do too. And this is a big part. 487 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:38,880 Speaker 1: They want Joe Biden to give them billions of dollars 488 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:41,680 Speaker 1: to pay for all this. That money comes from you 489 00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 1: and me, taxpayers that are not in New York City 490 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:47,359 Speaker 1: or Chicago or DC. This is where they're headed. They 491 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:48,120 Speaker 1: want to bail out. 492 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 2: It's a federal problem as far as Democrats are concerned. Remember, 493 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:57,359 Speaker 2: the federal government is using the force of law to 494 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 2: stop the State of Texas from enforcing the law. The 495 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 2: federal government would I mean, this would be like you know, 496 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,640 Speaker 2: those who work in law enforcement. I'm talking about. Imagine 497 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,159 Speaker 2: if you were in like a high pursuit chase. You know, 498 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 2: you're you're an FBI guy. Hey, we got this guy. 499 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 2: He's a kidnapper. He's in a car. And if you 500 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 2: go to like the state trooper, you know, I, you know, 501 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:19,400 Speaker 2: can you can you give me assistance on this one? 502 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 2: And he goes nah kah, and then no, no assistance. 503 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 2: You'd say, what's going on, like, are we enforcing the 504 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,840 Speaker 2: law here or not? You have the federal government doesn't 505 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:31,280 Speaker 2: want help in this case. They don't actually want assistance, 506 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 2: and they will prevent assistance from coming to them. And 507 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 2: then on the backside of this, they're going to say, well, 508 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 2: because it's only a federal problem, everyone has to pay 509 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:41,280 Speaker 2: for this. So if you're listening to us right now 510 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 2: and you're like, well, we don't have that many migrants 511 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,520 Speaker 2: in Nebraska, and by the way, I have no idea 512 00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 2: maybe there is a big population there of migrant, but 513 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 2: you know, we don't have that many migrants in Oklahoma. 514 00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 2: These days, your federal tax dollars are going to go 515 00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:55,119 Speaker 2: to bail out New York City to the June of 516 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 2: billions of dollars. If the Democrats can get away with it. 517 00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 3: That is the plan. 518 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:03,640 Speaker 1: One hundred billions percent the plan. And this is why 519 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:06,440 Speaker 1: Joe Biden is polling worse. Of all the issues that 520 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,439 Speaker 1: are out there, this is the one that is resonating 521 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:13,240 Speaker 1: the most. I think with Americans across the political landscape. 522 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:15,560 Speaker 1: And look at who's protesting a lot of this. These 523 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:20,160 Speaker 1: are majority black Hispanic schools kids that are getting kicked out, 524 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 1: and suddenly black and Hispanic parents are saying, wait a minute, 525 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:26,119 Speaker 1: how in the world is this happening. How are my 526 00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:29,159 Speaker 1: kids coming off of COVID When we know, despite what 527 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 1: Fauci's trying to argue, when we know, by the way, 528 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:37,119 Speaker 1: how incredibly disadvantaged kids were by shutting down schools. All 529 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:38,880 Speaker 1: of a sudden, they're going to shut down schools again 530 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 1: and make these kids go to remote learning. And we 531 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 1: all know that remote learning is an oxymoron because for 532 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:48,679 Speaker 1: the most part doesn't really exist. I just the chickens 533 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 1: are coming home to roost here and I don't know 534 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:56,199 Speaker 1: what the pathway out is for the Biden administration at 535 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:57,399 Speaker 1: this point in time. By the way, we'll take some 536 00:27:57,480 --> 00:27:59,399 Speaker 1: of your calls. Eight hundred and two eight two two 537 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:01,159 Speaker 1: eight a two as we continue to roll through the 538 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:04,639 Speaker 1: Wednesday edition of the program. Also curious how people will 539 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 1: break down their viewing habits. You were talking about this 540 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:08,959 Speaker 1: with me off air. How many of you out there 541 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 1: will watch DeSantis versus Nicky Haley on CNN. And we 542 00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 1: should also mention I'll come back and bring us back 543 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 1: in talking about this a little bit. Donald Trump appearing 544 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 1: live on Fox News for the first time since April 545 00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two, with his own counter programming going on 546 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,520 Speaker 1: head to head against DeSantis and Nicky Haley. I'm curious 547 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:31,720 Speaker 1: what those ratings will look like for Donald Trump with 548 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 1: his town hall as he continues to not be involved 549 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,480 Speaker 1: in the debate process at all in the meantime. And 550 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 1: I think, by the way, Buck, this will be the 551 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,760 Speaker 1: first time that Donald Trump has been live on television 552 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 1: since May when he did that CNN town hall which 553 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:47,720 Speaker 1: basically blew up all of CNN and got the head 554 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 1: of CNN fired. So get your popcorn, as one might say, 555 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 1: no idea, what's going to happen there.

I think two out of every 586 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 1: three people that are watching CNN or Fox News will 587 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 1: be in that will be in that Trump camp.

Do you have a certain amount 596 00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 1: of contempt for anyone having to deal with bad weather? 597 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 3: Yet?

I'm a trashpector for a department complexes, not like 614 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:56,240 Speaker 9: the one to go to your home to do the 615 00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:58,400 Speaker 9: big carberge can. I ceck for a small company. And 616 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,160 Speaker 9: I see it already. People in these serve bowled countries 617 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 9: they don't. They just do the trash anywhere right outside 618 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:05,320 Speaker 9: the door. They don't take it to the garbage can. 619 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:07,480 Speaker 9: It's and I see what you're saying, what's gonna happen 620 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:09,400 Speaker 9: in New York City. I see it already happening here 621 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 9: in Califlorida. 622 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 2: Well, but by the way, so there's two different things here. 623 00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 2: You're saying that the migrants and look, this is it 624 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 2: is true that in developing Third world countries, trash pickup 625 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:24,800 Speaker 2: and trash in general, how you deal with sort of 626 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 2: the day to day refuse is not handled well. Okay, 627 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 2: I don't know if sanitation is is not as good 628 00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 2: as in the first world. That is reality, and there's 629 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 2: a there are some customs and there are some practices 630 00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 2: around that. Again, this is just true for anyoneh's ever 631 00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 2: been to the third world. This is reality. But what 632 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:44,280 Speaker 2: I'm talking about is that the actual sanitation department is 633 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 2: going to almost cut in half all the trash they're. 634 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 1: Going to be picking up too, So because they can't 635 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 1: afford because of the budget crisis, they're having to make 636 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 1: cuts everywhere, and it becomes a pretty major issue. And 637 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,280 Speaker 1: by the way, New York City kind of has a 638 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 1: rat problem already, as producer Ali has attested. I think 639 00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:05,360 Speaker 1: she's had some square offs recently in in was the 640 00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:09,800 Speaker 1: East village where you live alley And And yes, I 641 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:12,480 Speaker 1: think part of the issues with trash in third world 642 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:16,320 Speaker 1: countries is they don't have pickup and so you don't 643 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 1: have any faith at all that there's going to be 644 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:20,960 Speaker 1: trash picked up. So there is no boy in there. 645 00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:24,080 Speaker 1: Ali says, what their rats bigger than cats where you are? 646 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,120 Speaker 1: That sounds terrifying. By the way, I know in DC 647 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 1: there used to be rats bigger than cats where I 648 00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:33,280 Speaker 1: live too.

There's a there's a sorting that is occurring, 681 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:14,879 Speaker 2: as we know of blue and red states and people 682 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:17,680 Speaker 2: moving out of the big blue states and moving into 683 00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 2: some of the no tax or low tax red states. 684 00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:26,200 Speaker 2: And I also think that you're seeing cities were really ascendant, 685 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:29,440 Speaker 2: you know, let's say, from the early two thousands until 686 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:33,120 Speaker 2: you know, right before COVID, I would say cities were 687 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:34,640 Speaker 2: seeming to do very well. New York was on on 688 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,319 Speaker 2: the decline into Blasio, but it had gotten so good 689 00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:39,800 Speaker 2: that it was hard to ruin to Blasio, manage to 690 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:43,719 Speaker 2: ruin it. Cities are not operating well these days, and 691 00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:45,840 Speaker 2: they need to have an understanding or there needs to 692 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 2: be a look at what's going on. There's incompetent leadership 693 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:53,600 Speaker 2: in major cities across the country. It's far too common now, 694 00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 2: and it's affecting quality of life. It's affecting protection of 695 00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:00,120 Speaker 2: life as in you know, safety on the street, it's 696 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 2: in law enforcement. There's something. You know, ideologically, there's something 697 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:06,960 Speaker 2: going on because same story clan in Chicago, same story 698 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:09,399 Speaker 2: in Los Angeles. A good on the list. Not well 699 00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 2: run cities right now, No. 700 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:12,640 Speaker 3: Doubt we come back. 701 00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:16,640 Speaker 1: Detroit News has been polling Donald Trump since twenty sixteen 702 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:21,000 Speaker 1: in the state. He has never ever had a lead 703 00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:24,759 Speaker 1: in their Detroit News polling in that entire what is 704 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:27,359 Speaker 1: that seven year history? Now moving up on eight years, 705 00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:31,160 Speaker 1: He just broke out in the Detroit News polling that 706 00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:34,800 Speaker 1: was released yesterday afternoon, his first lead over Joe Biden. 707 00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:37,879 Speaker 3: It's a big lead. What in the world is going 708 00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:38,840 Speaker 3: on in Michigan? 709 00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:41,480 Speaker 1: And are we getting an indication of what might be 710 00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:44,440 Speaker 1: to come in twenty twenty four based on Michigan. 711 00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:45,640 Speaker 3: We'll discuss next
