1
00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:21,079
Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom hunt. It's official. Creepy Joe

2
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:25,760
Speaker 1: Biden has sniffed his way right into the Democratic primary.

3
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:28,640
Speaker 1: He is now a candidate for president. We'll talk about

4
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:30,600
Speaker 1: whether this is going to shake things up. We'll be

5
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:32,680
Speaker 1: much ado about nothing. That and all the rest of

6
00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 1: the news today coming up on the Buck Sexton Show.

7
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:39,839
Speaker 1: This is the Buck Sexton Show, where the mission or

8
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 1: mission is to decode what really matters with actionable intelligence.

9
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:50,200
Speaker 1: No mistake, American, You're a great American. Again the Buck

10
00:00:50,240 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 1: Sexton Show begins. He's a great guy. No, oh yeah,

11
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:06,040
Speaker 1: Joe Biden. Everybody get excited. It's Biden time. Who can

12
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:09,680
Speaker 1: you feel all the electricity in the air. Can you

13
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 1: feel that hand slowly working its way from the small

14
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 1: of your back up to your shoulder? And then another

15
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 1: hand working its way on the other side? Wait? Was it? Was?

16
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:22,119
Speaker 1: It sliding kind of off the off to the left

17
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 1: and that's almost your buttocks area. But no, no, now

18
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 1: the hands moving up, it's going further up the back.

19
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,679
Speaker 1: And are you about to get a BackRub from the

20
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 1: Vice President of the United States? Did did he just

21
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:41,119
Speaker 1: sniff you? Joe Biden? Oh man, they're gonna say all

22
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 1: kinds of things to make that go away. But we

23
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 1: got the video, folks. He's a weird guy. He's a

24
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 1: weird guy. Now, look, you you can tell me, you

25
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 1: can tell me that none of that really matters. And

26
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 1: I do not pretend to make this a it's it's

27
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,120
Speaker 1: not criminal. He's not a he's not a monster or

28
00:01:58,120 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 1: anything that not at all. Okay, we're just having a

29
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: little fun with the fact that he's he's got some

30
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 1: boundary issues, for sure. I think guy has boundary issues.

31
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: I've worked in many offices for many years, and I

32
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:12,119
Speaker 1: have yet to have anyone sniff my head or kiss

33
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 1: the top of my head. Although I don't know, maybe

34
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 1: I'm just not wearing the right cologne. But Biden is

35
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 1: in and people are all very very excited about this,

36
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,519
Speaker 1: and on the left, I guess, I mean, I don't

37
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 1: are they excited about it? Though, that's let's put a

38
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 1: pin in that for a moment. I'm not sure. I'm

39
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 1: not convinced that anyone's particularly I don't even think Joe

40
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:37,080
Speaker 1: Biden is excited about this. He had his launch video though, today,

41
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 1: which was every bit as sanctimonious and self indulgent as

42
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 1: you would have expected. It. Will play a bit of

43
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:50,800
Speaker 1: it for you, play clip three, so you are I

44
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 1: believe his try look back on four years of this

45
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:58,480
Speaker 1: president and all the embraces as an aberrant moment in time.

46
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 1: But if you give Donald Trump eight years from the

47
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 1: White House, he will forever and fundamentally alter the character

48
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 1: of this nation. Who we are and I cannot stand

49
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 1: by and what's that happened? The core values of this

50
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 1: nation are standing in the world, are very democracy. Everything

51
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 1: that has made America America is at stake. That's why

52
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 1: today I'm announcing my candidacy for President of the United States.

53
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 1: What is he talking about? You know that that those

54
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: are all words strung together to bring certain emotions out

55
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 1: of the audience. And there's all this grandiosity and you

56
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 1: can hear the score in the background. America, our democracy

57
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: is at stake. How we had an election? Trump won

58
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 1: the election. Country is doing well. Things are pretty good.

59
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 1: What is at stake exactly in terms of the fundamental

60
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 1: values of this country or what I really would like

61
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 1: them to articulate this. I'd like Joe Biden to articulate this.

62
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 1: What are they gonna say is because because Trump FIBs

63
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 1: about things sometimes, Oh, I'm sorry. Is he the first

64
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:13,360
Speaker 1: politician who's ever lied? Oh? That's right. Bill Clinton lied

65
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,479
Speaker 1: under oath and didn't get charged for it. Barack Obama

66
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 1: lied about a healthcare program that might even affected some

67
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 1: might have been affected, some of you listening to the show.

68
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 1: You might have lost your plan after Obama intentionally lied

69
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 1: to you, lie to the American people dozens and dozens

70
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 1: of times about that. So what exactly is he talking about?

71
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 1: You know, what do they think they mean? That's what

72
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:39,279
Speaker 1: you have to ask when you're talking about Democrats. What

73
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:46,159
Speaker 1: do they think they mean? It's not clear our democracy

74
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:50,160
Speaker 1: is at stake, the fundamental value, fundamental values. This from

75
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 1: a man whose party put forward Hillary Clinton in the

76
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:57,720
Speaker 1: last election, because when I think values, I think Hillary.

77
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 1: I also think charm and whimsy and pant suits. Democrats

78
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 1: live in an alternate, alternate universe. They live in a

79
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 1: world where they really do think that they're the good

80
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,479
Speaker 1: guys against the bad guys. Whereas I think that we

81
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:17,479
Speaker 1: live in a country that, yeah, has its problems, but

82
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 1: things are actually going very well. Trump has, by any

83
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:29,559
Speaker 1: reasonable person's expectation, wildly exceeded the parameters and the predictions

84
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:33,799
Speaker 1: set for him by the so called political elites, the media,

85
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 1: the intelligentsia. We were going to be in a huge

86
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,720
Speaker 1: recession nowhere not we were going to be a massive

87
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:44,279
Speaker 1: national security risk. No. Actually, look, Trump has been better

88
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:48,719
Speaker 1: as commander in chief all national security than Obama was.

89
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 1: And I have to tell you then Bush was too.

90
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 1: Now he wasn't dealt the same hand that Bush was.

91
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 1: You could, we could, we could quibble on this a

92
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,839
Speaker 1: little bit. Bush nine eleven, the rise of jihadism built

93
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,280
Speaker 1: or really decades before, but just ran a muck under

94
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:07,160
Speaker 1: the Clinton administration. And then you know, Bush comes into

95
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,559
Speaker 1: office and we are really under assault from an enemy

96
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,159
Speaker 1: that was an existential threat to our society. It was,

97
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 1: but you got to think about a rock as well

98
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 1: as Afghanistan and some of the decision making the Bush

99
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 1: administration had. I think you could very easily argue that

100
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:27,360
Speaker 1: so far Trump is a better national security president than

101
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,599
Speaker 1: both of his predecessors. In fact, I think to find

102
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 1: a president who is as sound on the fundamentals. I'm

103
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 1: not saying he's an expert. You know. Trump doesn't sit around,

104
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 1: you know, learning the name of the premiere of Batswana

105
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,120
Speaker 1: late at night. Okay, I get it. But if you're

106
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 1: talking about gut instinct and the fundamentals of what this

107
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 1: country should try to achieve around the world, and as

108
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,679
Speaker 1: importantly in foreign policy, what it should not try to achieve.

109
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 1: Trump is better than anyone in his job. Stretching back

110
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,760
Speaker 1: to you'd have to go back to Reagan to find

111
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:04,480
Speaker 1: some buddy who has the same degree of both love

112
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 1: for the country and proper gut instincts about how to

113
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 1: deal with our enemies and how to embolden our allies

114
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 1: and not make huge mistakes. Not making huge mistakes is

115
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 1: one of the biggest precepts of any It should be

116
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 1: one of the biggest principles of any foreign policy in

117
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 1: any administration. Trump hasn't done it yet. I'm not saying

118
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 1: he won't, but if he gets this China deal done,

119
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 1: you got to go into this reelection thing. Hold on

120
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 1: a second. He was right on the border, and they

121
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,600
Speaker 1: all said that he was crazy and racist. No, Trump

122
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 1: has been right about the border situation. He hasn't been

123
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: able to fix it yet. But we were being told

124
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 1: by you know, I haven't forgotten folks, the Gang of

125
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 1: Ape Bill, the Republican Party. They were all about all

126
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:56,600
Speaker 1: about trying to convince us that the only answer was amnesty,

127
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: and that amnesty would be a great thing for this

128
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 1: country and that there wouldn't be future massive inflows of illegals.

129
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,559
Speaker 1: That's where the Republican Party was pre Trump. To his credit,

130
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 1: Mitt Romney was actually pretty decent on immigration in twenty twelve.

131
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,680
Speaker 1: He was for e verify, he was for self deportation.

132
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 1: You know, Mitt lately has really ticked me off, not

133
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 1: just lately, but in the era of Trump. I don't

134
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 1: know what to say about Mitt. He's gone off the

135
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,760
Speaker 1: deep end. But he wasn't bad in immigration in twenty twelve.

136
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 1: Check the facts. We'll see yourself. The Republican Party in general, though,

137
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 1: has been very close to where where the Democrats were

138
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 1: until recently. On China and trade and tariffs, Trump has

139
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 1: been correct, despite the overwhelming consensus of the so called

140
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 1: experts against him. Oh no, we believe in free trade.

141
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:49,800
Speaker 1: We don't have free trade. China's cheating all the time.

142
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:52,280
Speaker 1: You know. This is like if we're going into a

143
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 1: basketball game and everyone keeps saying no, you have to

144
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 1: play by the rules. You say, well, the other guys

145
00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 1: have eight people on the court. Can can we put

146
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 1: three more people on our side because they have eight

147
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:04,640
Speaker 1: people playing the game. Oh no, but we believe in

148
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 1: five on five basketball, buck, they've got eight people. They've

149
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 1: got eight people. You know what do we say about that? No?

150
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 1: Are we believe in five on five? Okay, yeah, that's

151
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 1: like saying we believe in free trade. You don't have

152
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:22,320
Speaker 1: free trade. They're cheating. Trump understands. This is Trump up

153
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:26,280
Speaker 1: late at night, you know, reading Thucidites. No, he is not.

154
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 1: Do I care when he actually understands very important issues

155
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 1: of policy better than the people who are up late

156
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 1: at night with their dog eared copy of a Throusidizes

157
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,680
Speaker 1: Thucidities History of the Peloponnesian War, which I'm looking at

158
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:43,720
Speaker 1: right now on my desk. That's why it's on my mind. No,

159
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:45,920
Speaker 1: I think that Trump should get more credit for this.

160
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 1: Do we think that Joe Biden? Oh, don't worry, we're

161
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 1: gonna dig more into this. I didn't mean to turn

162
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:52,960
Speaker 1: this into a Trump alogue. Do we think that Joe

163
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:58,319
Speaker 1: Biden has better judgment on foreign policy issues? Where where

164
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,440
Speaker 1: has Joe Biden been on the b foreign policy decisions

165
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 1: at the last thirty years, Someone who was brought into

166
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 1: the Obama administration as the VP, largely for the appearance

167
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:10,840
Speaker 1: of a steady hand on foreign policy. I can tell

168
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:16,840
Speaker 1: you this, Joe Biden on foreign policy has been remarkably,

169
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:21,440
Speaker 1: remarkably consistent. You must give him credit, folks. Joe Biden

170
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 1: has been incredibly consistent in that he is always wrong.

171
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 1: It's amazing to see. So he's quite useful in that way,

172
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,200
Speaker 1: because when there's a tough decision on foreign policy, all

173
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 1: you have to do is say, well, what does Joe

174
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 1: Biden want to do, and then do the opposite of

175
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:40,200
Speaker 1: that thing, and you'll make the right choice. But Biden

176
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,520
Speaker 1: didn't even push that far on his foreign policy credits.

177
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:45,760
Speaker 1: Today they made it about how this is a fight

178
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:49,200
Speaker 1: for the soul of the country, and they did this

179
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 1: video from Charlottesville, the favorite story for liberals to tell

180
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:59,959
Speaker 1: now about how Trump is literally as bad as Hitler,

181
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,959
Speaker 1: as they say, the worst ever, some kind of demon

182
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,800
Speaker 1: that has seized the White House, taking orders from the

183
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:10,720
Speaker 1: Kremlin as he eats all the babies across the land

184
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,960
Speaker 1: and brings fire and brimstone to village after village. I mean,

185
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 1: they have an anti Trump psychosis, and yet here we

186
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:24,559
Speaker 1: are being offered up Joe Biden as his replacement. Charlottesville,

187
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 1: he made a video. He made a video where he

188
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:31,520
Speaker 1: said things like this play four. He said, there were

189
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:36,839
Speaker 1: quote some very fine people on both sides, very fine

190
00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 1: people on both sides. But those words, the President United

191
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:47,000
Speaker 1: States assigned a moral equivalence between those spreading hate than

192
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:50,439
Speaker 1: those of the courage to stand against it. And in

193
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:54,400
Speaker 1: that moment, I knew the threat to this nation was

194
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:58,280
Speaker 1: unlike any I had ever seen in my lifetime. The

195
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,360
Speaker 1: threat and will get into the specifics of what is

196
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 1: a misrepresentation, what is a falsehood that Joe Biden content

197
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:06,959
Speaker 1: and the media continued to spread this all the time

198
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 1: as well. But I first want to deal with the

199
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,559
Speaker 1: notion that this is the greatest threat in Joe Biden's lifetime.

200
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:18,480
Speaker 1: Joe Biden is almost seventy, so that means that Donald

201
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:24,079
Speaker 1: Trump is. By Biden's own own assessment, Donald Trump is

202
00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 1: a bigger threat to the United States than the Soviet Union,

203
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 1: bigger threat to the United States than China, bigger threat

204
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 1: to the United States than Radical Islam, which includes al Qaeda,

205
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 1: which wanted to and still would like to get a

206
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,600
Speaker 1: weapon of mass destruction to detonate in a US city

207
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,719
Speaker 1: and made efforts in that, and it made efforts in

208
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:51,679
Speaker 1: the pursuit thereof Donald Trump's a bigger threat than all

209
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 1: of that. Any person who says that should be laughed

210
00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 1: out of the room. Joe Biden, for all of his

211
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:06,360
Speaker 1: grinning and glad handing and baby kissing and top of

212
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: head woman kissing that doesn't want him to kiss their head,

213
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 1: all of that is really a fraud. He is the

214
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 1: quintessential politician, stands for whatever he needs to stand for

215
00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:22,079
Speaker 1: in the moment to advance his own interest, and pretends

216
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,559
Speaker 1: that he's doing the public a favor. I would much

217
00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:31,200
Speaker 1: rather take the instincts and the swagger and the braggadocio

218
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 1: of Donald Trump over the pseudo earnestness of a Joe

219
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:41,600
Speaker 1: Biden any day. Trump says what he thinks, and Trump

220
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,960
Speaker 1: shares a sensibility in this country that we are sick

221
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,000
Speaker 1: of being talked down do and lie do by people

222
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 1: who think they're smarter than we are, but they actually aren't.

223
00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 1: Joe Biden panders to those people. He panders both to

224
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,320
Speaker 1: the elites who think they're better than you are, and

225
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:01,320
Speaker 1: he panders to the victimology crowd that thinks The only

226
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:03,520
Speaker 1: reason that their lives aren't better is because of you.

227
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 1: Because of you, you churchgoing, gun toting, Bible loving, married,

228
00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:13,800
Speaker 1: likely person. You're the You're not giving enough of your

229
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:15,960
Speaker 1: money away to the government. You see, you're the problem.

230
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:23,160
Speaker 1: I want to deal with the central lie here of Trump,

231
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 1: of Trump's saying that they're the neo Nazis, were the

232
00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 1: same as everybody else, and the essentially that Trump is

233
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 1: pro neo Nazi. That's a lie. Maybe he was inartful

234
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: in how he was explaining himself at the time, but

235
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 1: that's a lie. It is a lie. He does not

236
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 1: have pro Nazi sympathies, and people who say that are

237
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 1: smearing him. But that's not much of a leap, is it,

238
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 1: Because people will also saying and continue to including one

239
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:51,280
Speaker 1: that we'll deal with later on in the show that's

240
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 1: coming up, people who continue to say that he's a

241
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 1: Russian asset, a traitor. What is more likely The president

242
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 1: is a trader, is a race is a sexist, is

243
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 1: a sexual assaulterer, is mentally incompetent to be president? All

244
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:09,760
Speaker 1: things that prominent democrats and media talking head say about

245
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:14,760
Speaker 1: him all the time, or that they're crazy. Here's the answer.

246
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 1: They are crazy. I watched this very closely, much more

247
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 1: closely than your people watched it, and you have you

248
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 1: had a group on one side that was bad, and

249
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 1: you had a group on the other side that was

250
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,800
Speaker 1: also very violent. And nobody wants to say that, but

251
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 1: I'll say it right now. You had a group on

252
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,680
Speaker 1: the other side that came charging in without a permit

253
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 1: and they were very, very violent. I've condemned neo Nazis,

254
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 1: I've condemned many different groups, but not all of those

255
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 1: people were Neo Nazis. Believe me, not all of those

256
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 1: people were white supremacists by any stretch. Those people were

257
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 1: also there because they will to protest the taking down

258
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:05,880
Speaker 1: of a statue Robert E. Lee. That is what Trump said.

259
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 1: That is the full statement. And this this is what

260
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 1: it's supposed to be evidence of Trump being a horrible racist.

261
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 1: At worst, Trump had bad information or was wrong that

262
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:19,480
Speaker 1: some of the people who were a part of this

263
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 1: clash were really just there because they thought that they

264
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,640
Speaker 1: were part of a protest to take down a Robert E.

265
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,800
Speaker 1: Lee statue. And there are legitimate debates and discussions to

266
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 1: be had about how we handle the elevation of civil

267
00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:36,640
Speaker 1: war figures from the Confederacy in our current time. But

268
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 1: there are real debates and discussions. In fact, my friend

269
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 1: Jared Stepman is writing a book on this that will

270
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 1: be coming out in a few months on the back

271
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:46,560
Speaker 1: and forth. And of course now you know they want

272
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,720
Speaker 1: to tear it down Columbus statues. And Trump did not

273
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 1: say he likes neo Nazis. He condemned neo Nazis. He

274
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 1: said he condemned theo Nazis in that statement. Okay, I

275
00:16:57,960 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 1: know that I know the Trump family, I knew them

276
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 1: grow up. This notion that Donald Trump is a is

277
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 1: a neo Nazi, this is just this is just bizarre.

278
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:09,919
Speaker 1: It's such a lie. It's such a transparent and obvious lie.

279
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,639
Speaker 1: But they say it, but they say it, they do

280
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:19,240
Speaker 1: it anyway. You know, Trump does not like Neo Nazis.

281
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:24,920
Speaker 1: Please media, get something else. He condemned them. He says

282
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:27,280
Speaker 1: they're losers, he says they're bad. But you see, this

283
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 1: is just they have to find some way to justify

284
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:35,600
Speaker 1: the frenzied anti Trump hysteria they have. And this now

285
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:40,440
Speaker 1: manifests itself in Vice President Biden, or former Vice President Biden.

286
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:42,239
Speaker 1: Apparently he doesn't like that, by the way, you can

287
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:44,439
Speaker 1: introduce him as former vice President's supposed to call him

288
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:46,199
Speaker 1: vice president, I think, which is very weird to me.

289
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:49,359
Speaker 1: That's in the writers for some of his speeches. I

290
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 1: saw that yesterday. I don't know if he just likes

291
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:57,479
Speaker 1: to be called uncle Joe, but Joe Biden making this

292
00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:05,200
Speaker 1: a centerpiece of his announcement. The Charlottesville debacle is really

293
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 1: showing you where the left is going to go. They're

294
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:09,879
Speaker 1: not going to make some inspired, you know, call to

295
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:13,800
Speaker 1: national unity and Howard no, no no, no. They're gonna run

296
00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 1: the most dishonest, scorched earth campaign imaginable against Trump to

297
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:22,400
Speaker 1: try to frighten normal people away from supporting a president

298
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:28,480
Speaker 1: who has provided and produced results, good results for the country,

299
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:32,439
Speaker 1: policy solutions that are bearing fruit. You're supposed to forget

300
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:36,600
Speaker 1: all that and listen to their version of what Trump

301
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 1: said in Charlottesville. We'll have more on Biden, as you

302
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:42,040
Speaker 1: can tell. I'm not a Biden person that's coming up.

303
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,679
Speaker 1: He's back with you now, because when it comes to

304
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:04,919
Speaker 1: the fight for truth, the fuck never stops. Yes, I

305
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 1: think there's blame on both sides. You look at you

306
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:11,119
Speaker 1: look at both sides. I think there's blame on both sides.

307
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 1: And I have no doubt about it, and you don't

308
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:16,240
Speaker 1: have any doubt about it either. And if you reported

309
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:24,880
Speaker 1: it accurately, you would say, and you had some very

310
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 1: bad people in that group, but you also had people

311
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:31,920
Speaker 1: that were very fine people on both sides. You had

312
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 1: people in that group. Excuse me, excuse me, I saw

313
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,800
Speaker 1: the same pictures as you did. You had people in

314
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 1: that group that were there to protest that taking down

315
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,760
Speaker 1: of to them, a very very important statue and the

316
00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:47,640
Speaker 1: renaming of a park from Robert E. Lee to another name.

317
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,639
Speaker 1: So look what Trump is saying, and you know, we

318
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,720
Speaker 1: go back this again. He's saying that people that have

319
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:56,960
Speaker 1: a problem with Robert le lee statue being taken down

320
00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 1: are not the same necessarily as neo Nazis. He's trying

321
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 1: to make that separation. He's trying to say, this isn't

322
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:03,960
Speaker 1: the same thing. He's also saying that some of the

323
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:07,160
Speaker 1: people that were there as part of Antifa, I'm sorry,

324
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 1: this is this is something the left doesn't understand anymore.

325
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 1: You aren't allowed, let's say, if you do have the

326
00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 1: Nazis marching and Skoki Illinois, you're not allowed to show

327
00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:17,480
Speaker 1: up with baseball bats and bludging them to death. You're

328
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:20,280
Speaker 1: actually not allowed to do that. That is not a

329
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 1: what a civilized society does to speech that it does

330
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 1: not like, including hate speech, included real hate speech. But

331
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,400
Speaker 1: the left is now abandoned all this, so they they're

332
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:34,159
Speaker 1: making Charlottesville a centerpiece of this, and they're making things,

333
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:39,480
Speaker 1: making things up really in many cases about Trump, which

334
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 1: is that's nothing new at all. One thing I thought

335
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:42,919
Speaker 1: was interesting is that Biden, let's get back to it,

336
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:44,600
Speaker 1: let's dig into bidle and more. I'm sorry, I just

337
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 1: find you know, every time you turn on the TV

338
00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:49,680
Speaker 1: and there's some left wing talking head who's making a

339
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:53,640
Speaker 1: lot of noise about terrible Trump is their fallbacks, oh Charlottesville.

340
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:58,240
Speaker 1: And I'm just like, you know, guys, the president, he's

341
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,960
Speaker 1: talked about this so many times, he's a neo Nazis.

342
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 1: There's nothing about this president that indicates any fondness or

343
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:08,040
Speaker 1: love for neo Nazis, but they just keep saying it

344
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 1: because it, for them is necessary to justify the insane

345
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:17,520
Speaker 1: and frenzied hysteria they have about how as Joe Biden

346
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:20,239
Speaker 1: would put it, the greatest threat to this country in

347
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,879
Speaker 1: his lifetime seventy years back. Let's do the math there.

348
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 1: That's quite a while. Is Donald J. Trump? I would

349
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,480
Speaker 1: always want to ask, you know, I just give me

350
00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:34,280
Speaker 1: one second before you what is the terrible thing that

351
00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:39,120
Speaker 1: has happened because of Trump's presidency. It's a really interesting exercise.

352
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 1: When you ask a psycholib to fill you in on

353
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:47,639
Speaker 1: this one. What is the really horrible things? They'll probably

354
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:51,719
Speaker 1: say Charlottesville And okay, I mean, even if he misspoke

355
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:56,760
Speaker 1: very badly in Charlottesville, no one, you know, this wasn't

356
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,639
Speaker 1: like a war. I mean, we didn't lose thousands of people.

357
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,399
Speaker 1: The economy didn't crap out, we didn't have you know,

358
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,439
Speaker 1: millions of people lose their jobs. What is the terrible

359
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:08,640
Speaker 1: thing that Trump has done? In fact, in a lot

360
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:11,119
Speaker 1: of ways, he hasn't been able to do some of

361
00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:12,560
Speaker 1: the things that he would like to do that would

362
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:17,840
Speaker 1: be great. But he's been a pretty in terms of policy.

363
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 1: And yeah, I'm just gonna say it. Within the mainstream

364
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:26,600
Speaker 1: of Republican Party politics. Tax Cut tried to do a

365
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:29,159
Speaker 1: little trimming around the edges of Obamacare. Did some of

366
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 1: that not enough? Trying to secure the border. Border security

367
00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 1: is supposed to be a bipartisan thing. What is the

368
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 1: horrible thing that Trump has done that justifies this insanity

369
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:48,159
Speaker 1: from from Joe Biden and from everyone else on the

370
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:52,840
Speaker 1: Democratic Party that suggests that he's the greatest threat. And

371
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:54,640
Speaker 1: here's a reminder. Now I want to focus on Biden.

372
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:56,639
Speaker 1: I know, I got a little bit distracted because I

373
00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:58,800
Speaker 1: just I hate all the stuff they say about Trump

374
00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,880
Speaker 1: all the time. But here's a this is courtesy your producer, Mike,

375
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:04,680
Speaker 1: Joe Biden's greatest hits. I mean, this is the kind

376
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:06,440
Speaker 1: of stuff that this guy that we're being told is

377
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:09,480
Speaker 1: a return to normalcy. This is the other pitch, a

378
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:11,359
Speaker 1: fight for the soul of the nation and a return

379
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:14,439
Speaker 1: to normalcy. Play Cliff ten Man, who will be the

380
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:18,160
Speaker 1: next president of the United States, Barack America, You're gonna

381
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,880
Speaker 1: put you all back in chains. We've got the first

382
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:26,719
Speaker 1: sort of amazing stream crical American who is articulate and

383
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:30,760
Speaker 1: bright and clean and Bicican guy. I mean, that's a

384
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:34,880
Speaker 1: storybrook Is mom lived in in Long Island for ten

385
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:38,840
Speaker 1: years or so. A God rest her soul and hum

386
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 1: although she's wait, your mom's still your mom's still alive, Delaware.

387
00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:47,760
Speaker 1: You cannot go to a seven eleven or Duncan Donuts

388
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,680
Speaker 1: unless you have a slight Indian accent. Chuck Graham State

389
00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 1: Senators here, Chuck, stand up, Chuck, let him see it.

390
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:59,080
Speaker 1: Oh God, love you? What am I talking about? Yeah?

391
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:00,640
Speaker 1: That last one was and he told the guy who's

392
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,440
Speaker 1: in a wheelchair to stand up if you forgot. Now, look,

393
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 1: some of these are gaffs. I mean, some of them

394
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,199
Speaker 1: are just Joe Biden being Joe Biden and there and

395
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,480
Speaker 1: their gaffs. Others of them, are you gonna put you

396
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:12,880
Speaker 1: all back in change? Really irresponsible stuff for him to say.

397
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 1: But Joe Biden has a long history of being wrong.

398
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,000
Speaker 1: In fact, here's one, you know, you look at I'm

399
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:24,359
Speaker 1: trying to if I were to try to do this

400
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:26,040
Speaker 1: off the top of my head, I probably could. Let

401
00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:27,480
Speaker 1: me think for a second. I mean, if you're looking

402
00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 1: for the ways that Joe Biden has been wrong on

403
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:34,240
Speaker 1: foreign policy, oh, here you go. This. My friend Brett

404
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:37,200
Speaker 1: Hume over at Fox News pulled this one together. Joe

405
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:41,760
Speaker 1: Biden was for the nuclear freeze, He was against the

406
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:46,679
Speaker 1: First Iraq War, for the Second Iraq War, and was

407
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 1: opposed to ordering the raid that killed Osama bin Laden.

408
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:54,120
Speaker 1: On that last point. In case you're saying, well, hold

409
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:57,680
Speaker 1: on a second, buck, was he really no way, no way,

410
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:03,440
Speaker 1: He'd get that one wrong way, dude. Way. He had

411
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:07,240
Speaker 1: to make a decision. The president. He went around the

412
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:10,720
Speaker 1: table with all the senior people, including the choice, the

413
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:14,200
Speaker 1: chiefs of staff, and he said, I have to make decision.

414
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,840
Speaker 1: What is your opinion? He started the National Security advice

415
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 1: in the Secretary of State, and he ended with me.

416
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:26,159
Speaker 1: Every single person in that room headed their bed except

417
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:32,920
Speaker 1: Leon Panetta. Leon said go. Everyone else said forty nine

418
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:36,320
Speaker 1: fifty one got to me. He said, Joe, what do

419
00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:39,119
Speaker 1: you think? And I said, you know, I didn't know.

420
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:42,400
Speaker 1: We had so many economists around the table. I said,

421
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:45,639
Speaker 1: we owe the man a direct answer. Mister President. My

422
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:48,440
Speaker 1: suggestion is don't go. We have to do two more

423
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:52,080
Speaker 1: things to see if he's there. He walked out and said,

424
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 1: I'll give you my decision, true, Bud, don't go. Do

425
00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:00,160
Speaker 1: the thing that, more than anything else, probably helped I'm

426
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,880
Speaker 1: a win reelection. There you go, Joe Biden for America.

427
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 1: Everybody the judgment you can't count on. This is a

428
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,480
Speaker 1: this is a Democrat party that is looking to this man.

429
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:20,359
Speaker 1: Really by default, they are emotionally and increasingly psychologically predisposed

430
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:24,840
Speaker 1: towards at least a Marxist trajectory for the country, if

431
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,879
Speaker 1: not open Marxism. Right now, they do have this belief

432
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 1: that the country would be better if it was a

433
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,640
Speaker 1: democratic socialist country, which is just another way of saying

434
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 1: a socialist country. They are in favor of this, but

435
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,040
Speaker 1: they know that it doesn't sit that well with some

436
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:44,879
Speaker 1: of their fellow Americans. They know that there's still some hesitation,

437
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:49,640
Speaker 1: there's some reticence. So they're looking to Biden as well.

438
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:53,760
Speaker 1: Maybe he becomes the bridge. Maybe Biden poses as a

439
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 1: return to normalcy, whatever that means, by the way, normalcy

440
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:02,119
Speaker 1: like how like Obama spending a trillion dollars in a

441
00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,800
Speaker 1: stimulus package after the bailout of the banks, and then

442
00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:08,680
Speaker 1: the first thing he decides to do is go through

443
00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:12,840
Speaker 1: a viciously partisan battle over healthcare and pass a massive

444
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,480
Speaker 1: new entitlement without a single Republican vote to support it.

445
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:17,960
Speaker 1: I mean that that's the kind of normalcy we want

446
00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:22,680
Speaker 1: to return to. Do we want to return to riots

447
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,920
Speaker 1: in major US cities over lies that are being told

448
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:30,159
Speaker 1: to people about police violence and the systematic nature of

449
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:33,040
Speaker 1: police hunting young African American men, or do we want

450
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 1: to return to those lies? When they say return to normalcy,

451
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:40,080
Speaker 1: I think this is interesting. Who says we want normalcy?

452
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,400
Speaker 1: If normalcy is what we had before, I'm not I'm

453
00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:47,359
Speaker 1: not on board for that. In fact, Trump's rise and

454
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:52,600
Speaker 1: election was in large part a repudiation of what the

455
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:57,879
Speaker 1: political elites have told us is normalcy. Trump's rise is

456
00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:02,480
Speaker 1: meant to be a slap at those who have pretended

457
00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:04,960
Speaker 1: to be our betters for so long on all these issues,

458
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:08,439
Speaker 1: to know more than us, to have a greater understanding,

459
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:16,520
Speaker 1: greater wisdom. This is why when you look even further back,

460
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:21,480
Speaker 1: you find out that Joe Biden, where's this? Where's our

461
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 1: throwback with Biden? When he had to drop out because

462
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 1: up dropped out of the presidential race, Why remember return

463
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:32,240
Speaker 1: to normalcy? Like you know the ethics and the truth

464
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:37,639
Speaker 1: telling of politicians past. Who believes this crap? Here's Biden

465
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 1: back in nineteen eighty seven dropping out of a presidential race.

466
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 1: Guess what for plagiarism and for lying? Blakelip nine, he

467
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:47,880
Speaker 1: is the man in the dock for using other people's

468
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:51,160
Speaker 1: words without credit and being less than truthful about the

469
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 1: credits he received at law school and at college. I'd

470
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:58,360
Speaker 1: do it with incredible reluctance, and it makes me angry.

471
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:03,040
Speaker 1: I'm angry with myself for having been put in a position,

472
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:06,720
Speaker 1: put myself in the physician, having to make this choice,

473
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:12,120
Speaker 1: and I am no less frustrated for the environment of

474
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:16,920
Speaker 1: presidential politics. Be that as it may, I've concluded that

475
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:20,560
Speaker 1: I will stop being a candidate for president of the

476
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:26,560
Speaker 1: United States. Because he lied about being in the top

477
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,280
Speaker 1: of his law school class. Turns out he was more

478
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 1: like the bottom of his law school class, which, if

479
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,600
Speaker 1: you listen to enough Joe Biden's speeches, it is not surprising.

480
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 1: And speaking of speeches, he also stole a speech from

481
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:38,600
Speaker 1: a plagiarize a speech from a member of Parliament in

482
00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:41,720
Speaker 1: the UK, and if you hear it, it's it's pretty

483
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:44,760
Speaker 1: amazing that he was as blatant about it as he was.

484
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 1: But so is that the return to normalcy. A career politician,

485
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:56,680
Speaker 1: a career fabricator. What does he bring that is so

486
00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:59,080
Speaker 1: much better than what Trump brings? I really mean that

487
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 1: a great understanding of the free market, of economics, of

488
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:06,800
Speaker 1: how to run a business, a better understanding of who

489
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:08,600
Speaker 1: the good guys and who the bad guys are. I

490
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 1: don't think that Joe Biden beats Trump on any of

491
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:16,880
Speaker 1: those fronts, which then raises the question can Biden win? Now,

492
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 1: that doesn't mean is he better? That's not the same thing.

493
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 1: Can he win? Here's what the esteemed former Speaker of

494
00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 1: the House, Knute Gingrich said in his assessment of that

495
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 1: place seven. Can he beat President Trump? Well? Conceivably? I mean,

496
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:34,680
Speaker 1: if the economy would go really bad, if the president

497
00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 1: would have a bad campaign, and you know, you don't know.

498
00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 1: The question is going to be as can the Democrats

499
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 1: offer an alternative the people decide is better? If it's

500
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:49,600
Speaker 1: Trump versus perfection, I think President Trump has some problems

501
00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:53,719
Speaker 1: if it's Trump versus the most likely Democrats on their ticket,

502
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 1: avowing for the things they claim they favor. I think

503
00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 1: he's going to beat him by a surprisingly big margin.

504
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:05,080
Speaker 1: I think so too. I think that if we if

505
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:08,320
Speaker 1: the election were held tomorrow, Trump would win against any Democrats.

506
00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 1: I don't care what the polls say. Oh, you mean

507
00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:12,959
Speaker 1: the polls like the ones in the last election, Those polls,

508
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 1: the ones that the ones that led the New York

509
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:17,080
Speaker 1: Times to say that Hillary had a ninety seven percent

510
00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:22,960
Speaker 1: chance of winning on election day. Those polls, Yeah, polls

511
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 1: are just often what the media uses in place of

512
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:31,880
Speaker 1: real data to support their preconceived political notions, tells them

513
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:34,280
Speaker 1: what they want to hear, and then allows them to

514
00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:38,840
Speaker 1: spread that out to the rest of the country. Newt

515
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 1: also continued on here, I thought this was interesting. There

516
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,280
Speaker 1: is a real battle that is underway for the soul

517
00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:45,760
Speaker 1: of the nation. And this makes me think of not

518
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 1: just the Democrats that we square off against, but also

519
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:52,640
Speaker 1: many of the Republicans, many of the Republicans who are

520
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:58,120
Speaker 1: still rabid never Trumpers, who have made common cause with Democrats,

521
00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 1: even though the Democrats have shown us time and again,

522
00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 1: particularly the last year in the Kavanaugh hearing, in the

523
00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:08,960
Speaker 1: post abortion bills, post birth abortion bills that have been

524
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:12,160
Speaker 1: passed in state houses, they've shown us who they are,

525
00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 1: They've shown us what they're willing to do. And yet

526
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:18,800
Speaker 1: there are still Republicans who are so holier than thou

527
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 1: that they would rather work with the ideological enemy than

528
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:29,400
Speaker 1: accept the imperfection of Trump. I find this position to

529
00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 1: be petulant. Here's what Newte says about this struggle for

530
00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 1: the soul. Place six for sure, I agree with Joe Biden.

531
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:41,720
Speaker 1: We are in a battle for the soul of the nation.

532
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 1: You have Democrats now who favor killing babies after they're born.

533
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:51,400
Speaker 1: You have Democrats who favor allowing terrorists and bombers to

534
00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:54,640
Speaker 1: vote while the while they're in prison. You have Democrats

535
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:57,720
Speaker 1: who are for open borders, letting anybody in who wants to.

536
00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 1: You have Democrats who want to take away you're right

537
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:03,480
Speaker 1: to have private health insurance. Let's go down the list.

538
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,800
Speaker 1: This is a fight over the nature of America and

539
00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 1: the future of America, and the difference of the choice

540
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 1: next year is going to be the widest choice maybe

541
00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:15,400
Speaker 1: in modern times. And I think Biden is going to

542
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:18,719
Speaker 1: find it difficult to navigate, and he's pretty rapidly going

543
00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:22,000
Speaker 1: to discover there's a much tougher environment for a Democrat

544
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:25,520
Speaker 1: than it was while Barack Obama was shielding him from

545
00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:30,640
Speaker 1: any kind of hard questions. I think that's true. I

546
00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:33,760
Speaker 1: think that Biden is going to wither under the public scrutiny,

547
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:35,720
Speaker 1: even though the media will run as much interference for

548
00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:38,840
Speaker 1: him as possible. I think that Biden got a ride

549
00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:42,040
Speaker 1: on Obama's coattails for eight years, and now that Obama. Oh,

550
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:44,920
Speaker 1: we'll talk about where Obama stands on this. That is

551
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:48,320
Speaker 1: in itself kind of an instructive moment that's coming up.

552
00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 1: Stay with me. If you are the best choice for

553
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:08,520
Speaker 1: the Democrats twenty twenty, Why didn't President He doesn't want to.

554
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:14,400
Speaker 1: Whoever wins this nomination on their own merits. It was

555
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:16,440
Speaker 1: a little loud there, But just in case you missed that,

556
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:19,920
Speaker 1: that's Joe Biden saying, oh, he didn't even want Obama

557
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 1: to endorse him. That's right, the guy that he served

558
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:29,320
Speaker 1: as VP for for eight years doesn't even want his endorsement. Sure, Biden, Sure,

559
00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:33,080
Speaker 1: I don't think that's I don't think that's what's happened there.

560
00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:37,240
Speaker 1: I think that Obama is savvy enough to know that

561
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:40,400
Speaker 1: Joe Biden is not going to be the savior the

562
00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:43,759
Speaker 1: Democrats are hoping that he is. This this world that

563
00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:47,920
Speaker 1: they think still exists where there's no real opposition to

564
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:51,640
Speaker 1: the left wing Democrat press, where the American people don't

565
00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:55,400
Speaker 1: have access to the interwebs and YouTube and the statements

566
00:34:55,400 --> 00:35:00,640
Speaker 1: of politicians past that's not coming back, and world where

567
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:03,480
Speaker 1: Democrat politicians are able to get away with making it

568
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:05,880
Speaker 1: up as they go along with any without any opposition,

569
00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:09,240
Speaker 1: because the press are just scribes for those in power

570
00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:12,919
Speaker 1: on the left. That's that's not coming back either. So

571
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:15,480
Speaker 1: Biden's gonna have a much tougher run than I think

572
00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:17,560
Speaker 1: a lot of people on the left right now realize.

573
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:20,840
Speaker 1: Remember he ran for president, he got like one percent

574
00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:23,799
Speaker 1: of the vote. He was like Kucinich level. I went

575
00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 1: to see a Biden speech here in DC many years

576
00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:28,960
Speaker 1: ago because I just I got invited, and there are

577
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,640
Speaker 1: a bunch of Democrat candidates. I guess this would have

578
00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:34,319
Speaker 1: been two thousand and eight, you know that election, and

579
00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:36,640
Speaker 1: you know Biden. It was like Biden and Kucinich and

580
00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:38,359
Speaker 1: a couple of other people. I can't even remember who

581
00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:41,840
Speaker 1: it was. You know. The the also also also rans,

582
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:46,279
Speaker 1: and that's where Biden was. I mean, he just kind

583
00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 1: of got picked a VP by default. And now the

584
00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:53,800
Speaker 1: Democrats are picking him as their presidential candidate, perhaps by default,

585
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:56,600
Speaker 1: and they forget that look what happened with Hillary. Guys

586
00:35:57,160 --> 00:36:00,920
Speaker 1: just trying to ride the establishment to victory because the

587
00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:03,600
Speaker 1: Democrats have such an advantage in media and you know,

588
00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:06,680
Speaker 1: the campuses, and that's not a good strategy. But you

589
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:08,239
Speaker 1: know what, you know what the strategy is going to

590
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:12,879
Speaker 1: be you watch China interfered in the election. Just watch

591
00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 1: or Russia interfered again if they lose. That's what they're

592
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:17,400
Speaker 1: going to say, because they're babies. Let's talk about the

593
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:20,120
Speaker 1: economy coming up, Stay with me. Democrats in the state

594
00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 1: Senate and House are proposing to raise the top tax

595
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:26,960
Speaker 1: rate for capital gains, interest income, and dividends from seven

596
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,120
Speaker 1: percent to nine percent. That would make it one of

597
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:32,880
Speaker 1: the highest in the country. The Greenwich Headfund Association and

598
00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:35,120
Speaker 1: that world, which makes a lot of its income from

599
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:38,120
Speaker 1: capital gains, already coming out against the tax. The Hedge

600
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:41,600
Speaker 1: Fund Associations saying, quote in a statement that after five

601
00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:44,680
Speaker 1: tax increases in fifteen years and the new salt limits

602
00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:49,239
Speaker 1: on federal taxes, quote, Connecticut taxpayers, high earners and otherwise

603
00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:53,240
Speaker 1: are paying enough. Just three hundred and fifty families paid

604
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:56,759
Speaker 1: twelve percent of the state's total incomes income taxes in

605
00:36:56,800 --> 00:37:00,000
Speaker 1: twenty fourteen. That's according to the latest census, and Connecticut

606
00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:03,080
Speaker 1: was the only state in New England to lose population

607
00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:07,880
Speaker 1: between twenty seventeen and twenty eighteen. Let's talk about rich people.

608
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:11,960
Speaker 1: I've known some in my life. Let's talk about the

609
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:16,560
Speaker 1: Democrats soak the rich approach to governance and what the

610
00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:22,000
Speaker 1: results of it will actually be. This is central to

611
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 1: all really, but Biden's campaign pitch, it seems to me

612
00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:31,440
Speaker 1: so far. You certainly with Elizabeth Warren class warrior, Bernie Sanders.

613
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:36,400
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders is the Genghis Khan of class warfare. Elizabeth

614
00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:41,719
Speaker 1: Warren is the sitting bull of class warfare. You know

615
00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:45,080
Speaker 1: this is do you like that? I like that? You know,

616
00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:49,719
Speaker 1: this is what we see playing out time and again

617
00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:52,239
Speaker 1: with Democrats, that they pretend to be the party of

618
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:54,359
Speaker 1: the poor and the less fortunate, but there are all

619
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:58,279
Speaker 1: these billionaires who are liberals, and the moneyed elites on

620
00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:01,960
Speaker 1: the coasts are overwhelming. The role Goldman Sachs donated to

621
00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton I think more that I think there was

622
00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:06,480
Speaker 1: more money from Golden Sacks employees to Hillary than any

623
00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:09,640
Speaker 1: other company anywhere in the country. That might be a

624
00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:12,040
Speaker 1: little bit off, but it's something like that. Don't quote

625
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:15,719
Speaker 1: me on that one. But the federal government employees, as

626
00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:18,319
Speaker 1: we know, because the Democrats are the party of the

627
00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:21,240
Speaker 1: state and therefore status will always vote for the party

628
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:25,160
Speaker 1: of the state, and that means bureaucrats overwhelmingly went for

629
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:30,040
Speaker 1: the Democrat. Yet somehow they are able to keep playing

630
00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:31,839
Speaker 1: this game of what, We're just going to tax the very,

631
00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:33,720
Speaker 1: very rich people and there's not going to be a problem.

632
00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,799
Speaker 1: Three hundred and fifty families in the entire state of Connecticut. Now,

633
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:42,479
Speaker 1: Connecticut's not that big. You know, Texas burps up things

634
00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 1: that are bigger than Connecticut on a regular basis. I

635
00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:47,720
Speaker 1: get it. But it is a state with a couple

636
00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:50,759
Speaker 1: of few million people in it, I think, And that

637
00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:55,280
Speaker 1: three hundred and fifty families are paying twelve percent of

638
00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 1: the state's income taxes gives you a sense of how

639
00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:03,239
Speaker 1: progressive of the state really is, or rather the some

640
00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:06,080
Speaker 1: of the tax rates we have really are. And a

641
00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:08,480
Speaker 1: three point five million the state of Connecticut, pell you know,

642
00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:09,759
Speaker 1: I had, I actually had no. I was going to

643
00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:11,360
Speaker 1: guess two. It's a little bigger than I thought, but

644
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:14,719
Speaker 1: I knew it was a few million. But so three

645
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:18,040
Speaker 1: point five million, three hundred and fifty families pay twelve

646
00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:21,719
Speaker 1: percent of the state's income taxes. We already for those

647
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:26,000
Speaker 1: who are high earners, have a very progressive income tax.

648
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:30,520
Speaker 1: And when you look at the way that the top

649
00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:34,440
Speaker 1: ten percent carry the overwhelming majority of the income tax bird,

650
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:36,319
Speaker 1: and you start to say yourself, Okay, what are we

651
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:40,680
Speaker 1: really trying to accomplish here? You know what is fair?

652
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:44,319
Speaker 1: What is realistic? And states like Connecticut and New York

653
00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:46,960
Speaker 1: are losing population. You've already seen this in California. Those

654
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:48,320
Speaker 1: of you you who are listening to the show in Texas

655
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:52,680
Speaker 1: and Austin, what's up, kobj You guys know that you

656
00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:55,680
Speaker 1: have all these Californians. Hey man, we from California. We

657
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:59,960
Speaker 1: just brought our vegan sioy latte, and you know they're

658
00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,480
Speaker 1: showing up and they want to take the policies of

659
00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:05,879
Speaker 1: California and institute them in Texas. Now you're gonna have

660
00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:09,879
Speaker 1: flight from Connecticut and New York down to Florida. Now,

661
00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:13,520
Speaker 1: in a sense, I think that this, you know, on

662
00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:15,799
Speaker 1: the state by state level, I'm less bothered by it,

663
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:18,680
Speaker 1: because that's a good thing. We have, federalism. We have

664
00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:23,880
Speaker 1: You can flee your crappily run state and be an

665
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:25,960
Speaker 1: American and state in America, right, you can do that.

666
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:29,520
Speaker 1: I somehow only manage to live in incredibly blue states

667
00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:32,920
Speaker 1: run by quasi commies, but nonetheless here we are. But

668
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:36,920
Speaker 1: you can do that. You can flee, you can and

669
00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:39,439
Speaker 1: that's what's happening now. Some of these very wealthy Blue

670
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:42,000
Speaker 1: States people in New York and New York and Connecticut

671
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:47,360
Speaker 1: are going down to Florida. Of course, no surprise. The

672
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:49,279
Speaker 1: one and only Rush Limball was way ahead of the

673
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:51,839
Speaker 1: curve on this one, because you don't want to pay

674
00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:53,560
Speaker 1: the taxes. You don't want to deal with the crap

675
00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:55,600
Speaker 1: in New York, you know, you don't want to deal

676
00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:58,279
Speaker 1: with the the soak the rich attitude, which and a

677
00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:00,719
Speaker 1: lot of people that are paying super High Town aren't rich.

678
00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:03,359
Speaker 1: Did they do well? They're working really hard, but they're

679
00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:07,120
Speaker 1: not rich. And the cost of living in these places

680
00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:09,600
Speaker 1: is so much higher. You know, you guys all laugh.

681
00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:11,319
Speaker 1: I mean I sit around that I'm trying to save

682
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:13,040
Speaker 1: up to get that, you know, four hundred and fifty

683
00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:14,799
Speaker 1: square foot apartment. A lot of you are like buck,

684
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:18,160
Speaker 1: My laundry room is four hundred, four hundred fifty square feet.

685
00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:24,800
Speaker 1: You know, if you live in South Carolina, Texas, Nevada, Iowa,

686
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:27,680
Speaker 1: you know you live in parts of Florida, not all

687
00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:30,920
Speaker 1: of Florida. You know, you have real space, you have

688
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:33,960
Speaker 1: real space. We don't have that in these cities. I mean,

689
00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:36,840
Speaker 1: you pay so much money, but the federal government, and

690
00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 1: this is where the campaigns really matter. The federal government

691
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:42,320
Speaker 1: having as soaked the rich attitude. That's where things get scary,

692
00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:45,960
Speaker 1: because now you can't go anywhere. Now you're now you're stuck.

693
00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:50,840
Speaker 1: And what we've seen time and again is that the

694
00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:56,839
Speaker 1: Democrats promises to have their their dreams paid for, their

695
00:41:56,920 --> 00:41:59,880
Speaker 1: dream policies paid for by the super rich always had

696
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:02,920
Speaker 1: has impact on people that are not super rich, and

697
00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:06,040
Speaker 1: it's very negative. And they overpromise and they under deliver,

698
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:10,880
Speaker 1: and there's something fundamentally unfair about what Bastiat would have

699
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:15,200
Speaker 1: called plunder and this desire that every every man has

700
00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:20,600
Speaker 1: in a state, in a state where the government has

701
00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:23,400
Speaker 1: too much power. They promise people that they can live

702
00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:25,360
Speaker 1: in this world where every man lives at the expense

703
00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:28,759
Speaker 1: of every other man. It's good politics, right. This is

704
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:30,080
Speaker 1: the same as saying, well, you don't have to go

705
00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:32,239
Speaker 1: work today, you don't have to work out in the

706
00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:35,600
Speaker 1: field so that you can get your share of the harvest.

707
00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:37,279
Speaker 1: Somebody else would do the work in the field for you.

708
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:39,120
Speaker 1: Get to just hang out at home, you don't have

709
00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:43,279
Speaker 1: to do anything. That's very compelling. It's also very dangerous,

710
00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:48,880
Speaker 1: goes against human nature and has major social pitfalls that,

711
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:51,239
Speaker 1: as we know, keep happening time and time again. As

712
00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:55,400
Speaker 1: the Great Larry Kudlow said yesterday, socialism is a loser.

713
00:42:56,520 --> 00:42:58,560
Speaker 1: I really like that. By the way, we might have

714
00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:01,080
Speaker 1: to actually put that, producer, might do you think we

715
00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:04,000
Speaker 1: should work that into the show the show open. I

716
00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:06,160
Speaker 1: feel like that would be kind of fun. Socialism is

717
00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:10,160
Speaker 1: a loser. It would be a good bumper stick or two.

718
00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:15,120
Speaker 1: But it's true. It's true all these promises that are

719
00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:19,120
Speaker 1: being made by Elizabeth Warren and others to get people

720
00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:21,680
Speaker 1: to think that there will be someone else who pays.

721
00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:24,560
Speaker 1: We have a long history of this and it's not true.

722
00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:30,520
Speaker 1: And really, the most pernicious version of this plunder, which

723
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:35,680
Speaker 1: is what Bastiat called it, the most pernicious version of plunder,

724
00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:38,279
Speaker 1: is intergenerational. This is where we look at the debt,

725
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:41,000
Speaker 1: which is now twenty two trillion dollars, where all you

726
00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:46,560
Speaker 1: have is our system promising payment at a future date

727
00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:48,560
Speaker 1: that will fall on people not yet old enough to

728
00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:50,480
Speaker 1: tell the system, hey, you can't do that. You're not

729
00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:54,080
Speaker 1: supposed to do that. Democrats are doing this, and then

730
00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:57,760
Speaker 1: some no one takes the debt seriously in this country anymore?

731
00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:00,360
Speaker 1: In politics, I'm sorry, no one, no one's making the

732
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:02,319
Speaker 1: case right now. You know, maybe Mike League gives a

733
00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:07,080
Speaker 1: speech like a semester I don't know why I went

734
00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:09,000
Speaker 1: semester is not in college. But you know what I'm saying,

735
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:12,440
Speaker 1: once a year, there you go, buck. But no one

736
00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:14,000
Speaker 1: really takes the dead seriously. You know when we're gonna

737
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:17,880
Speaker 1: take it seriously when there's a big panic in the

738
00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:20,360
Speaker 1: financial markets, which people say, oh, that's just Wallstreet. No

739
00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:22,799
Speaker 1: it's not. It's gonna affect Everything's gonna affect your your

740
00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:25,640
Speaker 1: barring costs for your mortgage. It's going to affect the

741
00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:28,160
Speaker 1: value of the dollar that you're using you go buy food.

742
00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:31,239
Speaker 1: It's gonna have ramifications that affect all of us. And

743
00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:33,799
Speaker 1: the problem with waiting for the panic is that it's

744
00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:36,480
Speaker 1: far too late. But you know what, the the Elizabeth

745
00:44:36,520 --> 00:44:40,440
Speaker 1: Warrens and the you know the others on the Democrat ticket,

746
00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:45,279
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders, you know what they're going to promise. They're

747
00:44:45,320 --> 00:44:48,560
Speaker 1: going to promise that the only reason we're in that

748
00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:51,760
Speaker 1: situation is that the rich people weren't paying their fair share.

749
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:53,280
Speaker 1: And all you have to do is give the government

750
00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:56,719
Speaker 1: more power, and they'll make sure that the rich people

751
00:44:56,840 --> 00:45:00,279
Speaker 1: pay going forward. This is always their answer. It's like

752
00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:03,120
Speaker 1: they've got a fever and the only prescription is more taxes.

753
00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:07,080
Speaker 1: Class warfare is strong politics for the left, but it's

754
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:11,120
Speaker 1: bad economics for the country, and it's also unethical the

755
00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:12,759
Speaker 1: way the Democrats want to practice it. But that's what

756
00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:17,279
Speaker 1: we're facing, folks, socialism. It's a loser, or is it.

757
00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:22,080
Speaker 1: They are making and importing and bringing across the border

758
00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:28,080
Speaker 1: illegally thousands of pounds of meth amphetamine, and they're doing

759
00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:31,880
Speaker 1: it with illegal aliens. In fact, one of these guys

760
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:37,680
Speaker 1: was stopped on four different occasions and it wasn't detained,

761
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:43,200
Speaker 1: was documented. It was a catching release and self deported

762
00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:47,799
Speaker 1: and came back and self deported and came back. Why

763
00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:51,919
Speaker 1: because that's the drug trade. So when we think we're

764
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:55,200
Speaker 1: catching them all, when we think there's not a drug problem,

765
00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:59,759
Speaker 1: we're just wrong. There's a massive drug problem at the

766
00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:02,719
Speaker 1: order and you have to you have to keep in

767
00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:09,200
Speaker 1: mind this. The lawlessness of Mexico means that you can

768
00:46:09,200 --> 00:46:14,919
Speaker 1: create illegal drug labs on a much larger scale and

769
00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:20,880
Speaker 1: that you have much less fear of the authorities. Seizing

770
00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:23,120
Speaker 1: that lab and actually really hurting your bottom line as

771
00:46:23,160 --> 00:46:27,319
Speaker 1: a drug organization, you know. So this is where this

772
00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:33,160
Speaker 1: is where the real economics of illegal drugs shows us

773
00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:39,440
Speaker 1: that the Mexican cartels have a huge advantage if you

774
00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:42,319
Speaker 1: build a lab. And this is why meth amphetamine, which

775
00:46:42,320 --> 00:46:43,919
Speaker 1: you know, he's mentioning that the drugs that are coming

776
00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:53,680
Speaker 1: across meth amphetamine is at its highest usage now ever. Ever, ever,

777
00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:58,719
Speaker 1: you know, that's just not something that you hear on

778
00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:03,520
Speaker 1: the news very often, and it's because we're overwhelmed with

779
00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:07,600
Speaker 1: the opioid crisis. But the labs that they're making the

780
00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:10,759
Speaker 1: opioids in, you know, what they have been doing is

781
00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:14,080
Speaker 1: that they bring in the precursor materials from China. And

782
00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:16,960
Speaker 1: now Trump has been working with the Chinese government to

783
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:19,560
Speaker 1: try to shut that down. Is that really effective or not,

784
00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:21,960
Speaker 1: We'll have to see. They bring over these chemicals in

785
00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:26,520
Speaker 1: industrial quantities, some huge vats, you know, moving on shipping

786
00:47:26,560 --> 00:47:31,759
Speaker 1: in shipping container vessels from China to Mexico. Then they

787
00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:37,520
Speaker 1: set up industrial labs, bringing in real scientists. If you've

788
00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:39,600
Speaker 1: seen breaking Bad, this is pretty much what happens in

789
00:47:39,600 --> 00:47:42,560
Speaker 1: that accept imagine this is happening all over Mexico south

790
00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:45,200
Speaker 1: of our border, and then they make meth, and they

791
00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:47,839
Speaker 1: make opioid. They're synthetically making all this stuff because it's

792
00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:51,640
Speaker 1: so much cheaper and easier than say, you know, cocaine

793
00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:53,960
Speaker 1: is you have to grow at a very specific climate.

794
00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:57,319
Speaker 1: But those labs, those labs aren't going to get touched.

795
00:47:57,320 --> 00:48:00,520
Speaker 1: When was the last time you saw a major news

796
00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:04,080
Speaker 1: story about a huge Mexican drug lab seizure. I mean,

797
00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:06,800
Speaker 1: the cartels are operating all over all over the country,

798
00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:10,440
Speaker 1: importing billions and billions of dollars of drugs into America,

799
00:48:10,719 --> 00:48:14,919
Speaker 1: killing seventy thousand plus Americans a year now with opioid overdoses.

800
00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:18,120
Speaker 1: And do you see a lot of big drug grades

801
00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:22,880
Speaker 1: going on. No, it's our problem, you see, Mexican government's

802
00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:25,279
Speaker 1: got other problems. They're worried about the drugs that are

803
00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:27,759
Speaker 1: moving across the border. That's our problem. They leave that

804
00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:32,480
Speaker 1: for us. And that's why when you when you think

805
00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:35,800
Speaker 1: about how, yeah, you could make meth in this country.

806
00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:38,600
Speaker 1: I know, people make it in the you know, these

807
00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:40,840
Speaker 1: labs that are out in the middle of the desert

808
00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:44,000
Speaker 1: in what do you call them RVs and they you know, yeah,

809
00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:46,360
Speaker 1: there are ways you can do it. But wouldn't you

810
00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:48,279
Speaker 1: want to just get the superpure if you're if you're

811
00:48:48,320 --> 00:48:50,200
Speaker 1: an addict, you want to get the superperre stuff straight

812
00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:53,080
Speaker 1: from the cartels that they're sending over in vast shipments

813
00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:55,400
Speaker 1: all the time. You want to mess with that. And

814
00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:57,600
Speaker 1: if you're going to be if you're going to try

815
00:48:57,600 --> 00:49:00,600
Speaker 1: to be a dealer and compete, it's really easy for

816
00:49:00,680 --> 00:49:02,640
Speaker 1: DEA to swoop in and send you to prison for

817
00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:05,200
Speaker 1: fifty years if you're on American soil. It's not that

818
00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:08,920
Speaker 1: easy if you're running a Mexican drug lab. This is

819
00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:11,520
Speaker 1: the biggest People say, oh, it's not really national security issue.

820
00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:17,799
Speaker 1: This is the biggest problem that we face right now

821
00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:21,960
Speaker 1: on a national security level. The biggest long term challenge

822
00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:25,160
Speaker 1: is China. Sure, I get that, I admit that, of course,

823
00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:28,960
Speaker 1: But the biggest national security threat day to day is

824
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:32,759
Speaker 1: the cartels and the drugs. Are the cartels rather that

825
00:49:33,160 --> 00:49:35,760
Speaker 1: those are the biggest threats we face, and the drugs

826
00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:39,120
Speaker 1: that are pouring across our border. They're killing Americans every day.

827
00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:41,200
Speaker 1: People are dying from this stuff. It's also why I

828
00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:46,560
Speaker 1: get a little frustrated with the current discourse on non

829
00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:49,480
Speaker 1: violent drug offenders. You always hear this phrase non violent

830
00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:57,520
Speaker 1: drug offenders. Well, non violent drug offenders are sometimes people

831
00:49:57,560 --> 00:50:03,920
Speaker 1: that are selling very dangerous and even deadly illegal substances

832
00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:05,759
Speaker 1: to people. And I think you'd be very hard if

833
00:50:05,760 --> 00:50:07,879
Speaker 1: you sat down with the parents of somebody, say who

834
00:50:07,880 --> 00:50:11,560
Speaker 1: died from a an opioid overdose, and you said, well,

835
00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:13,799
Speaker 1: the person that sold them the drugs knowing that he

836
00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:15,480
Speaker 1: was an addict, knowing that he had a physical and

837
00:50:15,520 --> 00:50:20,160
Speaker 1: psychological dependency that was being exploited, didn't mean any harm

838
00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:21,920
Speaker 1: to come to him, but did put him in that position.

839
00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:24,399
Speaker 1: I doubt you'd feel like you would want to make

840
00:50:24,440 --> 00:50:27,120
Speaker 1: that case about non violent drug offender for the drug dealer.

841
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:32,080
Speaker 1: So I take marijuana is different. Marijuana is different, just

842
00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:34,360
Speaker 1: like it's different. If you know, if you sell somebody

843
00:50:35,120 --> 00:50:38,080
Speaker 1: a twenty two caliber rifle, it's not the same as

844
00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:40,080
Speaker 1: selling them a stinger missile launcher, right, I mean, these

845
00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:43,000
Speaker 1: aren't the same things. Just because they both make a

846
00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:47,600
Speaker 1: boom and have some very fundamental similarities of being a

847
00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:50,120
Speaker 1: projectile device doesn't mean that they should be treated the

848
00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:54,680
Speaker 1: same way. Although I did have unrising this doctor came

849
00:50:54,680 --> 00:50:56,759
Speaker 1: on who says that there's all this new science that

850
00:50:56,800 --> 00:51:02,239
Speaker 1: says that marijuana causes psychosis and really scary stuff. I

851
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:05,000
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't smoke weed, guys. So I gave

852
00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:08,080
Speaker 1: up smoking marijuana so that I could join the CIA.

853
00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:10,080
Speaker 1: And I wasn't somebody who smoked very often. I mean

854
00:51:10,719 --> 00:51:14,000
Speaker 1: a handful of times probably, but I gave it up

855
00:51:14,440 --> 00:51:16,399
Speaker 1: to join the CIA, so that would have been Now,

856
00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:18,880
Speaker 1: it's been twenty years since I've touched any kind of

857
00:51:18,880 --> 00:51:23,399
Speaker 1: a drug. Twenty years for a long time. But I look,

858
00:51:23,440 --> 00:51:27,040
Speaker 1: I think that every time I do a check in

859
00:51:27,120 --> 00:51:29,040
Speaker 1: on what's going on at the border, it feels like

860
00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:33,520
Speaker 1: the situation is even worse, and the press is just

861
00:51:33,600 --> 00:51:35,640
Speaker 1: like they are with Russia collusion, which we talk about

862
00:51:35,680 --> 00:51:40,080
Speaker 1: regularly in the show. They are dug in on making

863
00:51:40,200 --> 00:51:46,840
Speaker 1: sure that they are going to not look terrible on

864
00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:50,600
Speaker 1: this one because they'll lie and lie and lie. But

865
00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:52,400
Speaker 1: as long as they sort of stay with the oh,

866
00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:55,360
Speaker 1: we're just reporting on the humanitarian component of the story,

867
00:51:55,360 --> 00:51:57,120
Speaker 1: and we're just trying to tell people, you know, that

868
00:51:57,200 --> 00:51:59,440
Speaker 1: they need to in all that stuff. As long as

869
00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:02,000
Speaker 1: they're doing that, they feel like they're going to be

870
00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:05,000
Speaker 1: fine in the end. Even though they've told the lies

871
00:52:05,040 --> 00:52:07,160
Speaker 1: about the the caravan was never gonna make it right.

872
00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:09,720
Speaker 1: Now we're looking at what are like fourth or fifth

873
00:52:09,719 --> 00:52:11,799
Speaker 1: major caravan arriving at the border. I don't even know.

874
00:52:12,120 --> 00:52:14,279
Speaker 1: Depends on how you de find caravan. There are three

875
00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:16,520
Speaker 1: or four thousand coming to the border on any given day.

876
00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:20,200
Speaker 1: Ten thousand people showing up at the border. Do you

877
00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:22,000
Speaker 1: know what that's going to do when they get there

878
00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:26,080
Speaker 1: to border patrol manpower. It's going to open giant holes

879
00:52:26,200 --> 00:52:27,879
Speaker 1: in our border security. You know what's going to happen

880
00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:33,200
Speaker 1: after that? Border security is going to deteriorate, and they'll

881
00:52:33,239 --> 00:52:36,720
Speaker 1: be openings for poison to get trucked into this country,

882
00:52:36,719 --> 00:52:39,640
Speaker 1: which is going to kill people in your communities. So

883
00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:41,440
Speaker 1: I mean, in that sense, you know, yes, I guess

884
00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:43,560
Speaker 1: you can't argue because I'm always saying that it's not

885
00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:46,799
Speaker 1: really about it isn't really about the manpower. It's about

886
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:48,520
Speaker 1: the laws. Because if you just could tell the ten

887
00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:50,759
Speaker 1: thousand sorry, you're not coming to the country, then you

888
00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:53,280
Speaker 1: can deploy the manpower you have for the national security mission.

889
00:52:55,400 --> 00:52:59,280
Speaker 1: But Democrats are are entirely un serious on this issue,

890
00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:06,480
Speaker 1: entirely un serious. They just flatly will not They just

891
00:53:06,520 --> 00:53:10,359
Speaker 1: flatly will not make any good faith effort to try

892
00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:14,880
Speaker 1: and stop the massive illegal alien invasion from continuing. And

893
00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:16,799
Speaker 1: I see it here. I'm in a Washington DC. I'm

894
00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:19,640
Speaker 1: in the swamp. People know about this. Where is the action?

895
00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:23,239
Speaker 1: Every time the administration tries something. Every time Trump, to

896
00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:26,000
Speaker 1: his credit, makes a move to try and get things

897
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:28,840
Speaker 1: to calm down on the border, Ninth Circuit, Ninth Circuit

898
00:53:28,840 --> 00:53:32,200
Speaker 1: Court shuts him down. It's like he's not even really

899
00:53:32,200 --> 00:53:34,279
Speaker 1: president sometimes. I mean, what is he allowed to do?

900
00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:38,040
Speaker 1: Congress won't really do anything. And we only keep in

901
00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:40,440
Speaker 1: mind Congress never pass the laws that say things like

902
00:53:40,480 --> 00:53:43,280
Speaker 1: you can only help hold people for twenty days Flora's decree.

903
00:53:43,320 --> 00:53:46,480
Speaker 1: That's just from a court. These are court decisions. These

904
00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:50,560
Speaker 1: are unelected bureaucrats, lawyers, which should scare some of us

905
00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:55,400
Speaker 1: who are making decisions based on partisan ideology that affect

906
00:53:55,480 --> 00:54:00,920
Speaker 1: national level policy. It's a big problem. I've been to

907
00:54:00,920 --> 00:54:03,000
Speaker 1: the border twice in the last six months just to

908
00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:04,920
Speaker 1: look at this issue, and every every time I think

909
00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:09,120
Speaker 1: about it, I just it's so frustrating. Because Trump understood

910
00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:12,440
Speaker 1: this problem, He's right. He has raised the discussion to

911
00:54:12,480 --> 00:54:15,240
Speaker 1: a place where we're finally able to talk about this honestly,

912
00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:17,560
Speaker 1: but the action right now to follow through is just

913
00:54:17,719 --> 00:54:20,080
Speaker 1: not there. I wish it weren't the case, but it's

914
00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:22,440
Speaker 1: just not there. When you say, though, you want a

915
00:54:22,520 --> 00:54:24,959
Speaker 1: high wall with a big gate. Yes, a smart gate,

916
00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:27,200
Speaker 1: but a high wall, that's going to sound a lot

917
00:54:27,200 --> 00:54:29,759
Speaker 1: of folks out there. That's where Donald Trump was, well,

918
00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:32,440
Speaker 1: I think you've got to control the border. When you

919
00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:37,040
Speaker 1: have an increase of illegal apprehensions of illegal entries by

920
00:54:37,080 --> 00:54:42,000
Speaker 1: a three hundred and seventy four percent since October, obviously

921
00:54:42,080 --> 00:54:44,920
Speaker 1: you've got a situation where the border security is not sufficient,

922
00:54:45,080 --> 00:54:48,800
Speaker 1: and that's going to drive people who we should want

923
00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:52,880
Speaker 1: to be pro immigration against immigration. Democrats have been willing

924
00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:55,879
Speaker 1: to fund more border security. Okay, I'm for a high

925
00:54:55,880 --> 00:54:59,120
Speaker 1: wall with a big gate, a compassionate, a smart gate

926
00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:01,600
Speaker 1: so we can keep immigration going. But you're not going

927
00:55:01,640 --> 00:55:04,680
Speaker 1: to do that. Well, if people think people can just

928
00:55:04,760 --> 00:55:07,160
Speaker 1: walk into this country, they're not going to support the

929
00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:15,000
Speaker 1: immigration that we need. Even overrated superlib Tom Friedman recognizes

930
00:55:15,080 --> 00:55:17,000
Speaker 1: that what's going on in our southern border right now

931
00:55:18,080 --> 00:55:24,160
Speaker 1: is a disaster. What is happening is the wholesale destruction

932
00:55:25,320 --> 00:55:31,040
Speaker 1: of our immigration system. What is happening is the removal

933
00:55:31,680 --> 00:55:36,279
Speaker 1: of any good faith in discussing going forward what we

934
00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:38,000
Speaker 1: will do with the illegals who are already in the

935
00:55:38,040 --> 00:55:43,319
Speaker 1: country and with future waves of attempted illegal crossing. Democrats

936
00:55:43,320 --> 00:55:46,000
Speaker 1: have fallen into being an open border's party. Tom Friedman

937
00:55:46,880 --> 00:55:50,080
Speaker 1: is he, as I said, very overrated lib journalist. He

938
00:55:50,160 --> 00:55:55,880
Speaker 1: recognizes this because they're running out of room to pretend

939
00:55:56,080 --> 00:55:59,279
Speaker 1: that they really care about all the illegal crossing. In fact,

940
00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:01,040
Speaker 1: what we're seeing it's not just that they don't care

941
00:56:01,080 --> 00:56:04,520
Speaker 1: about the illegal crossings. They care. They like them. They

942
00:56:04,640 --> 00:56:07,799
Speaker 1: like the illegal immigration, They like the crossings that are

943
00:56:07,800 --> 00:56:12,080
Speaker 1: occurring in violation of US law. They want sanctuary cities

944
00:56:12,120 --> 00:56:15,640
Speaker 1: to be even more overflowing with people who are in

945
00:56:15,760 --> 00:56:21,080
Speaker 1: violation of statutes that are still good law in this country.

946
00:56:21,160 --> 00:56:24,279
Speaker 1: Doesn't matter how much people say that they're mean or

947
00:56:24,320 --> 00:56:27,560
Speaker 1: they're whatever, you know, until the Congress repeals that. And

948
00:56:27,960 --> 00:56:30,719
Speaker 1: let's just be honest about it. If they removed the

949
00:56:30,719 --> 00:56:33,239
Speaker 1: criminality of illegal status in this country, then we would

950
00:56:33,239 --> 00:56:37,000
Speaker 1: be a straight up open borders country, which does not

951
00:56:37,120 --> 00:56:39,319
Speaker 1: exist in the world. Why are we not allowed to

952
00:56:39,320 --> 00:56:42,680
Speaker 1: have borders in this country? Why is every other country

953
00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:44,440
Speaker 1: on earth that's not in the midst of some kind

954
00:56:44,440 --> 00:56:47,440
Speaker 1: of famine or civil war, and that can't control anything.

955
00:56:48,400 --> 00:56:49,960
Speaker 1: Why are we the only country in the world that

956
00:56:50,080 --> 00:56:51,799
Speaker 1: is not allowed to decide who comes and who goes.

957
00:56:52,920 --> 00:56:55,839
Speaker 1: You know, I'm going to China next month. Turns out

958
00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:57,279
Speaker 1: that's going to happen. By the way, we're gonna have

959
00:56:57,280 --> 00:57:00,840
Speaker 1: We're already working on getting a fantastic group of people

960
00:57:00,880 --> 00:57:03,320
Speaker 1: to come in and guest host that week. So get excited.

961
00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:05,719
Speaker 1: But I'm going to China next month. My visa just

962
00:57:05,760 --> 00:57:12,279
Speaker 1: came through. It took I think almost six weeks to

963
00:57:12,320 --> 00:57:15,040
Speaker 1: get a visa. And you know what would have happened

964
00:57:15,040 --> 00:57:17,040
Speaker 1: if I had gotten real pouty and try to just

965
00:57:17,080 --> 00:57:18,840
Speaker 1: get on the plane and show up and China and say, hey,

966
00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:20,840
Speaker 1: I'm here, guys. I know I didn't I didn't obey

967
00:57:20,920 --> 00:57:23,720
Speaker 1: your laws, but they would have said you're going home.

968
00:57:24,240 --> 00:57:25,920
Speaker 1: There wouldn't have been any I wouldn't have you know,

969
00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:27,840
Speaker 1: no one would have cried big tiers me. It wouldn't

970
00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:29,960
Speaker 1: have been a lot of noise like no, sorry, Now

971
00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:31,720
Speaker 1: I know China's a There's a whole other bunch of

972
00:57:31,760 --> 00:57:34,240
Speaker 1: stuff we could talk about with China. But they control

973
00:57:34,360 --> 00:57:37,800
Speaker 1: who comes and who goes absolutely, you know, absolutely, and

974
00:57:37,880 --> 00:57:40,120
Speaker 1: no one questions this. A lot of other things you

975
00:57:40,120 --> 00:57:42,840
Speaker 1: can question about China, but name a country they want

976
00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:46,200
Speaker 1: to control who comes and who goes. You know, this

977
00:57:46,280 --> 00:57:51,560
Speaker 1: gets to the fundamental conception of a state. It is

978
00:57:51,640 --> 00:57:55,680
Speaker 1: it is control of territory, right, it is. We do

979
00:57:55,760 --> 00:58:00,000
Speaker 1: not have extra territorial nation states. We don't have. Oh,

980
00:57:59,840 --> 00:58:05,240
Speaker 1: I'm you know. The country of Bucklandia exists, but it's

981
00:58:05,320 --> 00:58:08,040
Speaker 1: it doesn't control any actual land. It's just a country,

982
00:58:08,520 --> 00:58:10,440
Speaker 1: you know in well, I guess the Freedom Hut technically

983
00:58:10,440 --> 00:58:12,320
Speaker 1: falls into this category. It is a country without a

984
00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:16,120
Speaker 1: new land. But conversation for another time, but buck Landia

985
00:58:16,360 --> 00:58:19,520
Speaker 1: is not something that is real. You have to have.

986
00:58:19,520 --> 00:58:21,040
Speaker 1: If you're couldn't have a nation state, you have to

987
00:58:21,080 --> 00:58:23,320
Speaker 1: actually have a place to put it. You have to

988
00:58:23,360 --> 00:58:28,280
Speaker 1: actually have territory, and who is on that territory really matters.

989
00:58:29,040 --> 00:58:31,760
Speaker 1: Nation states used to go to war over land. People

990
00:58:31,840 --> 00:58:34,120
Speaker 1: used to kill each other over who controlled what pieces

991
00:58:34,160 --> 00:58:36,520
Speaker 1: of land. Now you can argue that buck that's barbaric

992
00:58:36,560 --> 00:58:38,800
Speaker 1: and all that other stuff, but this is at the

993
00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:42,400
Speaker 1: very heart of what a country is. Right. I don't

994
00:58:42,440 --> 00:58:45,280
Speaker 1: want to live in America if America is just Rhode Island.

995
00:58:45,760 --> 00:58:49,040
Speaker 1: I like America, the country that controls all fifty states

996
00:58:49,080 --> 00:58:51,000
Speaker 1: as well as a whole bunch of possessions and territories

997
00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:57,120
Speaker 1: and exerts control over them. That's what sovereignty is. The

998
00:58:57,240 --> 00:59:00,240
Speaker 1: Left no longer believes in that kind of sovereignty. But

999
00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:03,920
Speaker 1: what's fascinating is what do they replace it with. What

1000
00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:06,440
Speaker 1: are we supposed to have in place of that sovereigny.

1001
00:59:06,480 --> 00:59:09,200
Speaker 1: They don't have answers. They don't tell us what we're

1002
00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:11,520
Speaker 1: supposed to do. They don't tell us how we are

1003
00:59:11,560 --> 00:59:17,320
Speaker 1: to move forward in a borderless society because they don't

1004
00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:19,800
Speaker 1: have any answers. But this is also where I get

1005
00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:23,040
Speaker 1: so frustrated. And you know, he mentioned their Freedman border security,

1006
00:59:23,040 --> 00:59:28,160
Speaker 1: how Democrats will vote for border security. The problem here

1007
00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:32,640
Speaker 1: is the interpretation of the laws. It's not you know,

1008
00:59:32,720 --> 00:59:34,840
Speaker 1: think of this like a mall, right, It's not that

1009
00:59:34,880 --> 00:59:37,760
Speaker 1: we don't have enough mall security guards. It's that the

1010
00:59:37,800 --> 00:59:41,160
Speaker 1: mall security guards are being told they can't chase out

1011
00:59:41,200 --> 00:59:44,480
Speaker 1: the vandals and the hooligans. It doesn't matter how many

1012
00:59:44,520 --> 00:59:46,800
Speaker 1: security guards you have, doesn't matter how much border patrol

1013
00:59:46,880 --> 00:59:51,800
Speaker 1: we have. If you can show up lie claim asylum

1014
00:59:51,920 --> 00:59:54,200
Speaker 1: and stay in the country. So when they say they'll

1015
00:59:54,320 --> 00:59:57,040
Speaker 1: vote for border security, what they're really saying is they

1016
00:59:57,080 --> 01:00:01,040
Speaker 1: just want to make the process more streamline and more comfortable.

1017
01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:05,600
Speaker 1: They want softer pillows and you better tasting food for

1018
01:00:05,640 --> 01:00:08,080
Speaker 1: people that are breaking the law, and that I would

1019
01:00:08,080 --> 01:00:09,600
Speaker 1: note if they come as a family and if they're

1020
01:00:09,600 --> 01:00:12,400
Speaker 1: only spending two days in custody now. So they just

1021
01:00:12,440 --> 01:00:14,400
Speaker 1: want that process to be streamlined, but they want the

1022
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:18,920
Speaker 1: open borders component to stay. Real border security would be

1023
01:00:19,200 --> 01:00:21,720
Speaker 1: we have laws, we will enforce them, and that means

1024
01:00:21,840 --> 01:00:26,400
Speaker 1: keeping people out. Fundamentally, we have to accept if we're

1025
01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:29,080
Speaker 1: going to have a country that has borders, having borders

1026
01:00:29,120 --> 01:00:33,600
Speaker 1: means some people can't come in, not everyone gets to play.

1027
01:00:34,520 --> 01:00:38,040
Speaker 1: I can't imagine that we'll ever do anything harder than that.

1028
01:00:38,120 --> 01:00:40,840
Speaker 1: I'm so proud of our coverage NBCNS. I mean, it's

1029
01:00:40,880 --> 01:00:42,760
Speaker 1: the best of the best. The other thing this report

1030
01:00:42,800 --> 01:00:45,840
Speaker 1: did is that it really corroborated a lot of good

1031
01:00:45,920 --> 01:00:49,360
Speaker 1: journalism that was done time and again, and the smaller report,

1032
01:00:49,680 --> 01:00:53,200
Speaker 1: reporting from major news outlets is confirmed in the smaller

1033
01:00:53,240 --> 01:00:57,120
Speaker 1: report as being accurate. They think they did a great job, folks.

1034
01:00:58,720 --> 01:01:03,000
Speaker 1: The liberal journos instead of understanding that they have wrecked themselves.

1035
01:01:04,040 --> 01:01:06,200
Speaker 1: Is this the man who wrecked the BUFFERI at the

1036
01:01:06,240 --> 01:01:10,320
Speaker 1: Harrold Club this morning, who disabled an unmarked unit with

1037
01:01:11,040 --> 01:01:14,480
Speaker 1: a banana? Any of you who get that, by the way,

1038
01:01:14,800 --> 01:01:17,680
Speaker 1: I'll be deeply impressed, because right now you're all thinking,

1039
01:01:17,760 --> 01:01:20,280
Speaker 1: what the heck did Buck just say, there's a few

1040
01:01:20,280 --> 01:01:22,960
Speaker 1: of you out there across the country, right of the

1041
01:01:23,160 --> 01:01:25,640
Speaker 1: hundreds and hundreds of thousands of people listening to show,

1042
01:01:25,840 --> 01:01:28,479
Speaker 1: there are a few of you across the country that

1043
01:01:28,560 --> 01:01:34,080
Speaker 1: will catch that reference. But I digress. The press thinks

1044
01:01:34,080 --> 01:01:42,600
Speaker 1: that they did a fantastic job covering this. Meanwhile, meanwhile,

1045
01:01:44,360 --> 01:01:48,160
Speaker 1: the underlying premise of all of their coverage of the

1046
01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:54,960
Speaker 1: Russia collusion delusion was false. What's wrong? And they simply

1047
01:01:55,800 --> 01:02:01,760
Speaker 1: do not care. This is where you have the analysts,

1048
01:02:02,120 --> 01:02:06,200
Speaker 1: the so called analysts who included former senior officials of

1049
01:02:06,240 --> 01:02:12,240
Speaker 1: the security apparatus Brannan and Clapper and Komey's little pajama

1050
01:02:12,240 --> 01:02:16,320
Speaker 1: boy whatever that guy's name is over at CNN say hey,

1051
01:02:16,360 --> 01:02:18,320
Speaker 1: I mean, I gotta tell you not not good advertising

1052
01:02:18,360 --> 01:02:21,360
Speaker 1: for the FBI. It's like, hey, pajama boy, put your

1053
01:02:21,360 --> 01:02:25,360
Speaker 1: hands up. These people would go on TV, and the

1054
01:02:25,400 --> 01:02:28,920
Speaker 1: idea was that they were sharing their deep expertise and

1055
01:02:29,040 --> 01:02:31,760
Speaker 1: knowledge on all this subject matter and that they had

1056
01:02:31,840 --> 01:02:34,360
Speaker 1: special access. So when they would say, you know, they'd

1057
01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:37,920
Speaker 1: have Anderson Cooper, there's new reporting out that. Actually Anderson's

1058
01:02:37,960 --> 01:02:39,120
Speaker 1: voice is a little higher than that, but you know

1059
01:02:39,120 --> 01:02:40,880
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, you know, there's the reporting out that.

1060
01:02:41,200 --> 01:02:44,600
Speaker 1: And they would talk about some news story that's usually

1061
01:02:44,600 --> 01:02:46,880
Speaker 1: a leak from somebody in the DOJ or a leak

1062
01:02:47,200 --> 01:02:49,480
Speaker 1: or somebody in the White House about some aspect of

1063
01:02:49,520 --> 01:02:52,080
Speaker 1: the investigation. And I'm not saying that wasn't always true,

1064
01:02:52,080 --> 01:02:54,480
Speaker 1: but they would use you know, sometimes that was accurate,

1065
01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:56,960
Speaker 1: sometimes it wasn't, but they would use whatever that news

1066
01:02:56,960 --> 01:03:00,440
Speaker 1: story was to just transition right away into the coversation

1067
01:03:00,480 --> 01:03:03,240
Speaker 1: about how any minute now they're gonna just they're gonna

1068
01:03:03,280 --> 01:03:05,440
Speaker 1: arrest Trump, they're gonna frog march him out of the

1069
01:03:05,440 --> 01:03:07,440
Speaker 1: White House. You know, any minute now they're gonna just

1070
01:03:07,680 --> 01:03:10,200
Speaker 1: the other shoes gonna drop and blah blah blah. I mean,

1071
01:03:10,360 --> 01:03:13,600
Speaker 1: that's that's what was going on here, folks. That's what

1072
01:03:13,680 --> 01:03:17,880
Speaker 1: was happening. And I just think that it would be

1073
01:03:17,880 --> 01:03:21,640
Speaker 1: better if we had some honesty about that from the press.

1074
01:03:22,040 --> 01:03:24,160
Speaker 1: You know, I'm not saying that they would give up

1075
01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:27,200
Speaker 1: their privileged positions and their incredible perks and the vast

1076
01:03:27,200 --> 01:03:28,800
Speaker 1: sums of money that many of them are paid and

1077
01:03:28,840 --> 01:03:30,919
Speaker 1: all that. I get that. I don't think that that's

1078
01:03:30,960 --> 01:03:35,320
Speaker 1: going to happen, but at least some accountability. And that's

1079
01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:38,280
Speaker 1: why there will be no accountabilities we all. As we

1080
01:03:38,280 --> 01:03:40,480
Speaker 1: all know, the media thinks not only do they not

1081
01:03:40,520 --> 01:03:43,240
Speaker 1: think they did a horrendous job, they think they're doing

1082
01:03:43,280 --> 01:03:46,680
Speaker 1: a good job. This is this is gaslighting at a

1083
01:03:46,800 --> 01:03:49,880
Speaker 1: nuclear meltdown level. I mean, this is the Chernobyl of

1084
01:03:50,000 --> 01:03:53,640
Speaker 1: gaslighting the media is engaged in right now, and they

1085
01:03:53,720 --> 01:03:55,840
Speaker 1: don't care that. You and I know they don't care that.

1086
01:03:56,280 --> 01:03:59,240
Speaker 1: It couldn't be any more obvious. What a debacle, What

1087
01:03:59,280 --> 01:04:03,439
Speaker 1: an anti tree rump lunacy they have peddled. And that's

1088
01:04:03,440 --> 01:04:07,080
Speaker 1: why this weekend there's the Washington of the White House

1089
01:04:07,360 --> 01:04:12,080
Speaker 1: rather correspondence dinner, and I'm not going and I have

1090
01:04:12,240 --> 01:04:13,520
Speaker 1: you know, I work for the Hill. If I had

1091
01:04:13,560 --> 01:04:15,640
Speaker 1: wanted to go, I could have gone. I have no

1092
01:04:15,720 --> 01:04:18,800
Speaker 1: interest in going. I don't want to be around and

1093
01:04:18,880 --> 01:04:20,960
Speaker 1: I obviously have friends in the media, and I even

1094
01:04:20,960 --> 01:04:23,080
Speaker 1: have some friends in the liberal media, But by and

1095
01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:26,280
Speaker 1: large I think that my see that the media pretends

1096
01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:30,000
Speaker 1: that they are a check on power in this country.

1097
01:04:30,320 --> 01:04:33,560
Speaker 1: That is there, That is their sales pitch. You know,

1098
01:04:33,640 --> 01:04:36,520
Speaker 1: we are here to spread because information now is more

1099
01:04:36,600 --> 01:04:40,440
Speaker 1: freely shared and available than ever before. So where journalists

1100
01:04:40,480 --> 01:04:44,200
Speaker 1: think that they're really you know, adding value is that

1101
01:04:44,280 --> 01:04:48,760
Speaker 1: they are one accurate and two a check on power.

1102
01:04:48,840 --> 01:04:51,800
Speaker 1: They speak truth to power. Democracy dies in darkness all

1103
01:04:51,800 --> 01:04:56,120
Speaker 1: this stuff. The problem is journalists are really a clique

1104
01:04:56,880 --> 01:05:00,960
Speaker 1: of like minded liberals, a bunch of libs who all

1105
01:05:00,960 --> 01:05:04,280
Speaker 1: work to cover each other's back and push an agenda

1106
01:05:04,360 --> 01:05:11,000
Speaker 1: of activism under the guise of neutral reporting, knowing that

1107
01:05:11,040 --> 01:05:14,720
Speaker 1: they have immense power to shape public opinion, and believing

1108
01:05:14,840 --> 01:05:18,240
Speaker 1: full well that even though they are lying about what

1109
01:05:18,280 --> 01:05:20,840
Speaker 1: they are doing, because they are doing it in the

1110
01:05:20,880 --> 01:05:24,120
Speaker 1: service of a righteous cause, making the country more liberal,

1111
01:05:24,160 --> 01:05:27,760
Speaker 1: making the country more progressive, they think that they're the

1112
01:05:27,760 --> 01:05:31,320
Speaker 1: good guys. I view my role as somebody in the

1113
01:05:31,360 --> 01:05:35,320
Speaker 1: media to not just bring you also information and analysis.

1114
01:05:35,480 --> 01:05:37,680
Speaker 1: I mean, I do not claim to be a journalist,

1115
01:05:39,440 --> 01:05:42,120
Speaker 1: but I like to be a check on what they

1116
01:05:42,120 --> 01:05:44,840
Speaker 1: are doing. You know, who will watch the watchers. Well,

1117
01:05:44,880 --> 01:05:47,560
Speaker 1: if the media are the watchers, I watch the watchers.

1118
01:05:49,280 --> 01:05:51,720
Speaker 1: I know who they are, I know the games they play.

1119
01:05:52,520 --> 01:05:55,160
Speaker 1: I'm not impressed by them. In fact, I know much

1120
01:05:55,200 --> 01:05:57,840
Speaker 1: more than almost all of them about the subject matter

1121
01:05:57,880 --> 01:06:01,840
Speaker 1: that they are reporting on On a regular basis. Journalists

1122
01:06:01,840 --> 01:06:07,120
Speaker 1: as a group of people are shockingly intellectually incurious. The

1123
01:06:07,160 --> 01:06:09,080
Speaker 1: truth is that most of the journalists that will be

1124
01:06:09,120 --> 01:06:12,200
Speaker 1: at the White House Correspondence dinner this weekend, which I've

1125
01:06:12,200 --> 01:06:15,080
Speaker 1: been to and the food is bad. You know a

1126
01:06:15,080 --> 01:06:18,040
Speaker 1: lot of people there that I just you know, you

1127
01:06:18,040 --> 01:06:21,520
Speaker 1: don't really care to see or talk to. And sitting

1128
01:06:21,560 --> 01:06:23,400
Speaker 1: at big banquet dinners. I'm just gonna say this because

1129
01:06:23,400 --> 01:06:24,680
Speaker 1: I've had to do far too much of them. I like,

1130
01:06:24,800 --> 01:06:28,720
Speaker 1: sitting at big banquet dinners is not my thing and

1131
01:06:28,840 --> 01:06:35,600
Speaker 1: not something that gets me particularly excited. But some people

1132
01:06:35,640 --> 01:06:37,960
Speaker 1: really get into it. I don't know. But you see

1133
01:06:37,960 --> 01:06:40,080
Speaker 1: all these journals there and it's really a big self

1134
01:06:40,120 --> 01:06:44,320
Speaker 1: congratulation session. Just like journalism, it has a fake pretense.

1135
01:06:44,720 --> 01:06:47,840
Speaker 1: The pretense is that they're there to celebrate the greatness

1136
01:06:47,840 --> 01:06:50,160
Speaker 1: of journalism and provide scholarships. I mean, this is like

1137
01:06:50,200 --> 01:06:53,040
Speaker 1: the Miss America thing with the scholarships. Okay, I'm glad

1138
01:06:53,040 --> 01:06:54,600
Speaker 1: they do some of my scholarships, but it's really a

1139
01:06:54,600 --> 01:06:57,880
Speaker 1: swimsuit competition, really, right, I mean, or at least it was.

1140
01:06:57,920 --> 01:06:59,280
Speaker 1: I think I guess they got rid of the swimsuit

1141
01:06:59,320 --> 01:07:02,880
Speaker 1: competition now, but it's it's a beauty pageant that used

1142
01:07:02,880 --> 01:07:05,560
Speaker 1: to have a swimsuit competition. I know it does some

1143
01:07:05,640 --> 01:07:09,160
Speaker 1: nice charity work. That's great, But you know, Hezbala does

1144
01:07:09,200 --> 01:07:11,560
Speaker 1: some nice charity work too. I'm not comparing Miss America

1145
01:07:11,600 --> 01:07:14,200
Speaker 1: to Hezbalah. I'm just saying, because you do some nice charity,

1146
01:07:14,280 --> 01:07:16,080
Speaker 1: that's gonna get me in trouble. Because you do some

1147
01:07:16,160 --> 01:07:19,040
Speaker 1: nice charity work doesn't mean that that's your main mission

1148
01:07:19,160 --> 01:07:23,880
Speaker 1: in life. And because the White House Correspondence Association gives

1149
01:07:23,920 --> 01:07:29,240
Speaker 1: some journalist, you know, some journalists, not charity work what

1150
01:07:29,320 --> 01:07:33,280
Speaker 1: I'm trying to scholarships out, it doesn't mean that the

1151
01:07:33,280 --> 01:07:36,680
Speaker 1: big self congratulations session isn't really what this is all about.

1152
01:07:36,840 --> 01:07:38,960
Speaker 1: And that's what it is. So I will not be there.

1153
01:07:39,000 --> 01:07:40,720
Speaker 1: I mean, if you go back and watch what happened

1154
01:07:40,800 --> 01:07:42,880
Speaker 1: last year where Sarah Huckaby Sanders was there, I mean,

1155
01:07:42,920 --> 01:07:46,400
Speaker 1: it was really mean and I'm not. I'm not an

1156
01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:48,880
Speaker 1: overly sensitive guy, and I know I like people having

1157
01:07:48,880 --> 01:07:50,280
Speaker 1: a sense of humor, and I even think people in

1158
01:07:50,320 --> 01:07:52,000
Speaker 1: the public eye need to be able to really take it.

1159
01:07:52,240 --> 01:07:55,040
Speaker 1: And trust me, I take it all the time. But

1160
01:07:55,080 --> 01:07:57,600
Speaker 1: what they did Sarahugaby Sanders, which it was just disrespectful

1161
01:07:57,600 --> 01:07:59,320
Speaker 1: and it was it was low and it was wrong,

1162
01:07:59,720 --> 01:08:02,440
Speaker 1: and I just don't want to be a part of that.

1163
01:08:03,200 --> 01:08:05,800
Speaker 1: I think the press is a disgrace. I do not

1164
01:08:05,920 --> 01:08:08,400
Speaker 1: respect most people who work in the press. I think

1165
01:08:08,440 --> 01:08:13,520
Speaker 1: most of them are a bunch of self righteous, narcissistic babies.

1166
01:08:14,720 --> 01:08:18,519
Speaker 1: I think that, unfortunately, the mentality of many people who

1167
01:08:18,600 --> 01:08:21,440
Speaker 1: especially if they go to journalism school, they are indoctrinated

1168
01:08:21,520 --> 01:08:24,680
Speaker 1: into this thinking that they are not people that are

1169
01:08:24,720 --> 01:08:27,000
Speaker 1: providing a service to the public so much as they

1170
01:08:27,040 --> 01:08:30,479
Speaker 1: are the privileged and the elite that are responding to

1171
01:08:30,560 --> 01:08:33,080
Speaker 1: a calling that only they can fulfill, which is just

1172
01:08:33,120 --> 01:08:41,160
Speaker 1: not the case. Journalism is a profession separated not qualification

1173
01:08:41,640 --> 01:08:48,960
Speaker 1: or credential, but by skill and really by connections and

1174
01:08:49,040 --> 01:08:51,919
Speaker 1: by playing the game. The greatest skill that a journalist

1175
01:08:51,920 --> 01:08:56,040
Speaker 1: can have in the modern American media world is to

1176
01:08:56,160 --> 01:09:00,439
Speaker 1: know the right people and to be ruthless behind the

1177
01:09:00,479 --> 01:09:03,000
Speaker 1: scenes to get what you want. That's really what separates

1178
01:09:03,120 --> 01:09:04,839
Speaker 1: most of the people that you know who are household

1179
01:09:04,920 --> 01:09:09,840
Speaker 1: names from the ABC, NBC and most of the people

1180
01:09:09,880 --> 01:09:11,920
Speaker 1: that you know are up for these big nightly news jobs.

1181
01:09:12,240 --> 01:09:14,960
Speaker 1: There's a thousand people that could do that job and

1182
01:09:15,080 --> 01:09:16,720
Speaker 1: many people who do the job even better and for

1183
01:09:16,720 --> 01:09:18,760
Speaker 1: far less money. But who do the executives, who do

1184
01:09:18,840 --> 01:09:22,519
Speaker 1: the people in the c suite like, who they golf with,

1185
01:09:22,520 --> 01:09:24,200
Speaker 1: who are they buddies with? That's who gets the job,

1186
01:09:24,320 --> 01:09:26,240
Speaker 1: And then we're supposed to believe that they're the conscience

1187
01:09:26,240 --> 01:09:28,640
Speaker 1: of America. I mean, I think that they used to

1188
01:09:28,640 --> 01:09:30,840
Speaker 1: call it nerd prom until everyone said, none of you

1189
01:09:30,880 --> 01:09:33,759
Speaker 1: think you're nerds, and nerds actually no stuff, So stop

1190
01:09:33,800 --> 01:09:37,920
Speaker 1: calling it nerd prom. Your sort of pseudo self deprecation

1191
01:09:38,600 --> 01:09:40,880
Speaker 1: is insulting to the rest of America. And I know

1192
01:09:40,920 --> 01:09:42,240
Speaker 1: a lot of you are like, oh, buck, we don't

1193
01:09:42,240 --> 01:09:44,080
Speaker 1: even care. Who even knew that the White House Correspondence

1194
01:09:44,080 --> 01:09:49,080
Speaker 1: dinners this weekend. Good if you didn't know, I'm glad,

1195
01:09:49,680 --> 01:09:51,640
Speaker 1: But it is an important moment I think to just

1196
01:09:52,240 --> 01:09:56,560
Speaker 1: keep it real and bash these clowns for really what

1197
01:09:56,680 --> 01:09:58,519
Speaker 1: it's just going to be a big session where all

1198
01:09:58,520 --> 01:10:00,080
Speaker 1: of them sit around and clap for each other and

1199
01:10:00,080 --> 01:10:03,160
Speaker 1: talk about how terrible Trump is. Trump is a monster.

1200
01:10:03,880 --> 01:10:05,680
Speaker 1: Let me just tell you this as a little anecdote here.

1201
01:10:08,760 --> 01:10:13,760
Speaker 1: I asked a very well known journalist who had had

1202
01:10:13,800 --> 01:10:17,240
Speaker 1: the Obama administration threatened to send him to prison for

1203
01:10:17,280 --> 01:10:20,960
Speaker 1: doing his job. This is a real thing. I asked

1204
01:10:21,040 --> 01:10:25,120
Speaker 1: him who was a bigger threat to press freedom the administration?

1205
01:10:25,160 --> 01:10:30,200
Speaker 1: The Obama administration that for reporting on information that was classified,

1206
01:10:30,240 --> 01:10:33,200
Speaker 1: but he's a journalist that they do that. The obam

1207
01:10:33,200 --> 01:10:35,479
Speaker 1: administration was threatening at one point to send him to prison,

1208
01:10:35,920 --> 01:10:39,200
Speaker 1: or the Trump administration that has never sent anyone to

1209
01:10:39,240 --> 01:10:42,519
Speaker 1: prison for doing their job as a reporter. He said,

1210
01:10:42,560 --> 01:10:46,559
Speaker 1: no question, the Trump administration. And I said, you are crazy.

1211
01:10:47,200 --> 01:10:50,599
Speaker 1: That is delusional. This is what we're dealing with. Journalists

1212
01:10:50,640 --> 01:10:53,720
Speaker 1: won't even stand up for the First Amendment in a

1213
01:10:53,800 --> 01:10:56,639
Speaker 1: real way because they hate Trump so much that they'll

1214
01:10:56,640 --> 01:10:59,679
Speaker 1: make excuses for the greatest threat to press freedom since

1215
01:10:59,720 --> 01:11:02,400
Speaker 1: World War Two in this country, which is the Obama

1216
01:11:02,400 --> 01:11:07,600
Speaker 1: administration user of the Espionage Act more than every administration

1217
01:11:07,680 --> 01:11:11,000
Speaker 1: before combined. Why don't they talk about that at the

1218
01:11:11,040 --> 01:11:20,120
Speaker 1: White House Correspondence dinner a bunch of clowns. Protests rampage

1219
01:11:20,400 --> 01:11:24,120
Speaker 1: these days. Some students would like to see limits to

1220
01:11:24,320 --> 01:11:27,240
Speaker 1: free speech. Free speech is not hate speech. It's not

1221
01:11:27,520 --> 01:11:34,719
Speaker 1: speech that's meant to harm and to deteriorate communities. Campus craziness, folks,

1222
01:11:34,760 --> 01:11:38,000
Speaker 1: gotta keep you updated on all the latest. So also

1223
01:11:38,080 --> 01:11:39,400
Speaker 1: you know that you can go to take back the

1224
01:11:39,439 --> 01:11:42,240
Speaker 1: Campus dot org because you have an action item whenever

1225
01:11:42,280 --> 01:11:44,600
Speaker 1: we talk about the campus craziness, and that is that

1226
01:11:44,680 --> 01:11:48,240
Speaker 1: you can donate to my friends at the Leadership Institute.

1227
01:11:48,600 --> 01:11:50,960
Speaker 1: I got a crazy story for you here. Actually, I

1228
01:11:51,080 --> 01:11:54,240
Speaker 1: have somebody who will tell you they're crazy story about

1229
01:11:54,439 --> 01:11:57,680
Speaker 1: what they wrote up here on Reason dot com. Our

1230
01:11:57,720 --> 01:12:00,479
Speaker 1: friend Robbie Suave is on the show now. He is

1231
01:12:00,520 --> 01:12:05,160
Speaker 1: an associate editor at Reason and also has a new

1232
01:12:05,200 --> 01:12:07,519
Speaker 1: book out which he will tell you a little bit about.

1233
01:12:07,520 --> 01:12:10,640
Speaker 1: But first Robbie telling you at this piece, Williams College

1234
01:12:11,360 --> 01:12:15,040
Speaker 1: had students claiming that free speech harms but they said

1235
01:12:15,080 --> 01:12:18,519
Speaker 1: even crazier stuff like students were screaming that we were

1236
01:12:18,600 --> 01:12:23,080
Speaker 1: trying to kill them. What happened here, my friend, Yeah,

1237
01:12:23,120 --> 01:12:26,360
Speaker 1: this is they're claiming that people who want free speech

1238
01:12:26,360 --> 01:12:30,040
Speaker 1: on campus, as some of the professors do. They're they're

1239
01:12:30,080 --> 01:12:33,679
Speaker 1: hoping that the that the institution Williams College will agree

1240
01:12:33,720 --> 01:12:37,000
Speaker 1: to the Chicago Principles, which is this pro free speech

1241
01:12:37,040 --> 01:12:40,160
Speaker 1: statement at the University of Chicago started. Many other colleges

1242
01:12:40,200 --> 01:12:42,280
Speaker 1: have signed onto it. You know that we're going to

1243
01:12:42,360 --> 01:12:45,080
Speaker 1: have controversial speakers, We're going to have free speech because

1244
01:12:45,080 --> 01:12:47,880
Speaker 1: we know this makes the campus a better, stronger, more

1245
01:12:47,920 --> 01:12:52,040
Speaker 1: intelligent place. These students, you know, this is a small

1246
01:12:52,120 --> 01:12:55,439
Speaker 1: subset of an activist minority that is that exists on

1247
01:12:55,479 --> 01:12:58,680
Speaker 1: every campus, particularly our lague campuses, that they say no

1248
01:12:59,320 --> 01:13:02,800
Speaker 1: having these discussions, having free speech, it harms us. And

1249
01:13:02,840 --> 01:13:05,720
Speaker 1: you are literally trying to kill us if you're if

1250
01:13:05,760 --> 01:13:08,080
Speaker 1: you're going to allow people on campus who who we

1251
01:13:08,120 --> 01:13:10,479
Speaker 1: disagree with. I mean, this is the this is their ideology,

1252
01:13:10,520 --> 01:13:12,960
Speaker 1: not of all students, not of most students, but of

1253
01:13:13,000 --> 01:13:17,240
Speaker 1: a radical subset that have tremendous power and influence. And

1254
01:13:17,320 --> 01:13:20,400
Speaker 1: they got some of the professors to sign off on

1255
01:13:20,560 --> 01:13:22,800
Speaker 1: having signed on to the Chicago Principles because they were

1256
01:13:22,840 --> 01:13:26,559
Speaker 1: so afraid of offending these students. I you know, people

1257
01:13:26,640 --> 01:13:30,000
Speaker 1: misuse the term literally a lot in our in our

1258
01:13:30,000 --> 01:13:33,559
Speaker 1: current discourse. As you know, you know, I literally was

1259
01:13:33,640 --> 01:13:35,720
Speaker 1: doing something that I wasn't literally doing. Is what you

1260
01:13:35,760 --> 01:13:37,400
Speaker 1: hear from people a lot, but here they were, in

1261
01:13:37,479 --> 01:13:40,439
Speaker 1: fact saying that that trying to kill them is what

1262
01:13:40,560 --> 01:13:45,280
Speaker 1: free speech accomplishes. Can you can you walk me through

1263
01:13:45,720 --> 01:13:48,240
Speaker 1: the crazy here? Because this is this is really the

1264
01:13:48,320 --> 01:13:52,719
Speaker 1: ultimate extension of the speech equals violence, which is something

1265
01:13:52,760 --> 01:13:54,960
Speaker 1: that started on the campus and now has spread into

1266
01:13:55,000 --> 01:13:59,280
Speaker 1: the broader culture. But now it's not just speech equals violence,

1267
01:13:59,280 --> 01:14:02,400
Speaker 1: it's speech equals you are literally trying to kill me,

1268
01:14:02,439 --> 01:14:06,280
Speaker 1: when of course you're not. How do they rationalize or

1269
01:14:06,520 --> 01:14:11,280
Speaker 1: to the degree they can explain this thought process on campuses? Yeah,

1270
01:14:11,320 --> 01:14:13,080
Speaker 1: So this is this is a major theme of my

1271
01:14:13,120 --> 01:14:16,120
Speaker 1: book which is coming out in June, Panic attacking radicals

1272
01:14:16,120 --> 01:14:17,760
Speaker 1: to me a Trump. So I interviewed a lot of

1273
01:14:17,800 --> 01:14:20,439
Speaker 1: these kinds of students to see where this comes from,

1274
01:14:21,040 --> 01:14:23,559
Speaker 1: and you know, it's one of their most important and

1275
01:14:23,600 --> 01:14:29,200
Speaker 1: foundational beliefs. I think it comes from having to have

1276
01:14:29,600 --> 01:14:33,480
Speaker 1: power in their activist standings. You have to in accordance

1277
01:14:33,479 --> 01:14:37,000
Speaker 1: with intersectionality. You have to have, you know, some kind

1278
01:14:37,040 --> 01:14:40,599
Speaker 1: of oppressed status. And a way for people who actually

1279
01:14:40,600 --> 01:14:43,439
Speaker 1: aren't very oppressed is to have sort of a mental

1280
01:14:43,479 --> 01:14:46,479
Speaker 1: health issue, and a weight an mental health issue is

1281
01:14:46,520 --> 01:14:49,840
Speaker 1: to be uncomfortable or mostly uncomfortable with language you don't like,

1282
01:14:49,960 --> 01:14:52,439
Speaker 1: and that sort of started to be the genesis of it.

1283
01:14:52,720 --> 01:14:55,679
Speaker 1: So you have people claiming, they're claiming it in order

1284
01:14:55,680 --> 01:14:59,040
Speaker 1: to gain standing in the activist community, that they are

1285
01:14:59,200 --> 01:15:02,479
Speaker 1: traumatized and they are triggered and their mental health is

1286
01:15:02,520 --> 01:15:06,360
Speaker 1: destroyed by your words and this is a form of violence.

1287
01:15:06,640 --> 01:15:09,040
Speaker 1: And this is how you start to erode that very

1288
01:15:09,080 --> 01:15:12,360
Speaker 1: important distinction because they'll now they'll say, you know, if

1289
01:15:12,360 --> 01:15:15,599
Speaker 1: you're bringing someone a campus, Charles Murray, Heather McDonald, those

1290
01:15:15,600 --> 01:15:17,200
Speaker 1: are the some of the conservative speakers who have been

1291
01:15:17,240 --> 01:15:20,960
Speaker 1: shut down. You're not just bringing someone whose views they despise,

1292
01:15:21,080 --> 01:15:24,360
Speaker 1: but some you're introducing violence against them, which is why

1293
01:15:24,400 --> 01:15:27,960
Speaker 1: they think a proper technique is for them to engage.

1294
01:15:28,240 --> 01:15:31,280
Speaker 1: Often in shutting down, the speakers are sometimes even defensive

1295
01:15:31,360 --> 01:15:34,519
Speaker 1: violence because it's like self defense for them because the

1296
01:15:34,560 --> 01:15:37,280
Speaker 1: words are violence themselves. It's this is where it gets

1297
01:15:37,280 --> 01:15:40,599
Speaker 1: really scary because you hear this from Antifa as well,

1298
01:15:40,680 --> 01:15:43,280
Speaker 1: when they would start to talk about you know, nazi

1299
01:15:43,360 --> 01:15:46,120
Speaker 1: punching essentially, and then when you ask them, well, who's

1300
01:15:46,120 --> 01:15:49,920
Speaker 1: a Nazi and they say like, well, Ben Shapiro and

1301
01:15:50,080 --> 01:15:54,000
Speaker 1: you know, Dave Rubin and Jordan Peterson, and it's like, no,

1302
01:15:54,479 --> 01:15:57,160
Speaker 1: they're not even close to being Nazis. So it's a

1303
01:15:57,240 --> 01:15:59,120
Speaker 1: it's a little terrifying when you see the way that

1304
01:15:59,160 --> 01:16:02,200
Speaker 1: they extend these definite missions and then understand that, as

1305
01:16:02,200 --> 01:16:06,000
Speaker 1: you point out, they've if you view speech as violence,

1306
01:16:06,080 --> 01:16:10,400
Speaker 1: then you can, in quote self defense, engage in violence

1307
01:16:10,400 --> 01:16:13,559
Speaker 1: to shut down speech against you. So really, this is

1308
01:16:13,600 --> 01:16:17,160
Speaker 1: just the most tortured logic, an excuse for people to

1309
01:16:17,240 --> 01:16:19,679
Speaker 1: act like complete maniacs speech they don't like. But Robbie,

1310
01:16:19,680 --> 01:16:21,400
Speaker 1: you know you put it out your book, Panic Attack

1311
01:16:21,520 --> 01:16:23,040
Speaker 1: is what it's called, right, which we'll have you back

1312
01:16:23,080 --> 01:16:25,559
Speaker 1: on when it's on shelves, But folks, you can probably

1313
01:16:25,560 --> 01:16:30,200
Speaker 1: pre order now on Amazon. Robbie, what do administrators say,

1314
01:16:30,320 --> 01:16:34,240
Speaker 1: or what are the supposed adults here, many of whom

1315
01:16:34,320 --> 01:16:37,920
Speaker 1: have tenure, who are at an institution that ostensibly is

1316
01:16:37,960 --> 01:16:41,320
Speaker 1: supposed to be about higher education and higher learning, What

1317
01:16:41,360 --> 01:16:45,640
Speaker 1: do they say about shutting down speech because it's literally

1318
01:16:45,680 --> 01:16:49,439
Speaker 1: trying to kill people to speak freely about things, right,

1319
01:16:49,520 --> 01:16:52,519
Speaker 1: I mean, in theory, the administrators and the professors are

1320
01:16:52,920 --> 01:16:55,560
Speaker 1: pro free speech that you know they do not agree

1321
01:16:56,200 --> 01:16:59,160
Speaker 1: with these activists, but they're terrified of these students because

1322
01:16:59,200 --> 01:17:02,120
Speaker 1: they cause all the problems you would not believe. I've

1323
01:17:02,160 --> 01:17:05,320
Speaker 1: talked to so many professors, leftist professors, very leftist center

1324
01:17:05,360 --> 01:17:09,200
Speaker 1: professors who are more like ACLU types, who are terrified

1325
01:17:09,400 --> 01:17:13,240
Speaker 1: of offending these students because they're gonna get investigated. They're

1326
01:17:13,240 --> 01:17:15,679
Speaker 1: gonna get they're gonna get even if they have tenure.

1327
01:17:15,720 --> 01:17:17,840
Speaker 1: They're they're you know, they're reliant to some degree on

1328
01:17:17,880 --> 01:17:20,960
Speaker 1: course evaluations. They will they will be investigated by the

1329
01:17:21,040 --> 01:17:23,799
Speaker 1: Title nine Office for saying something about sex or gender

1330
01:17:24,040 --> 01:17:26,960
Speaker 1: that is not conservative. It's it's progressive, but it's an

1331
01:17:27,000 --> 01:17:29,439
Speaker 1: older style of progressive that is now somehow out of

1332
01:17:29,439 --> 01:17:33,559
Speaker 1: step with something the younger activists decided was through five

1333
01:17:33,560 --> 01:17:36,240
Speaker 1: seconds ago. And and they're gonna get in trouble, so

1334
01:17:36,280 --> 01:17:38,080
Speaker 1: they're afraid to say anything. They you know, they tell

1335
01:17:38,120 --> 01:17:40,559
Speaker 1: me this privately. They say, you cannot tell anyone that

1336
01:17:40,600 --> 01:17:42,840
Speaker 1: I told you this. But here's what my students are

1337
01:17:42,840 --> 01:17:46,040
Speaker 1: putting me through. Again, not asten, it's not even most students.

1338
01:17:46,040 --> 01:17:49,120
Speaker 1: But it only takes a couple to really foundationally change

1339
01:17:49,160 --> 01:17:51,240
Speaker 1: the culture. And I'm worried they're going to bring that

1340
01:17:51,320 --> 01:17:56,559
Speaker 1: off the campus into the workplace, into tech places, Silicon Valley, etcetera, etcetera.

1341
01:17:57,280 --> 01:18:00,719
Speaker 1: I say this is this is fast to me because

1342
01:18:01,040 --> 01:18:03,040
Speaker 1: you know, college campus is not only the supposed to

1343
01:18:03,080 --> 01:18:07,800
Speaker 1: be incubators of thoughtful discourse, and they are the birthplace

1344
01:18:07,800 --> 01:18:10,360
Speaker 1: of the so called free speech movement, which as we

1345
01:18:10,400 --> 01:18:14,719
Speaker 1: know now is now the the open censorship movement. But Robbie,

1346
01:18:14,880 --> 01:18:18,200
Speaker 1: that there are administrators who are scared of a minority

1347
01:18:18,240 --> 01:18:21,760
Speaker 1: of students on campuses just goes to or one. I

1348
01:18:21,800 --> 01:18:25,519
Speaker 1: think the cowardice of some of these tenured positions and

1349
01:18:25,760 --> 01:18:28,400
Speaker 1: the administrators and the other people that are supposed to

1350
01:18:28,479 --> 01:18:33,879
Speaker 1: be maintaining some intellectual vibrancy on these campuses and intellectual honesty.

1351
01:18:34,240 --> 01:18:38,040
Speaker 1: But but also, you know, where are the other students

1352
01:18:38,080 --> 01:18:40,200
Speaker 1: on campus when it comes to this stuff? Are they

1353
01:18:40,240 --> 01:18:43,400
Speaker 1: scared of them too? Are they not willing to say that?

1354
01:18:43,439 --> 01:18:45,320
Speaker 1: You know, they don't want to be called racists? And

1355
01:18:45,400 --> 01:18:48,679
Speaker 1: what do they say to you? That's exactly what it is. Yeah,

1356
01:18:48,680 --> 01:18:50,599
Speaker 1: they you know, most of them would like to hear

1357
01:18:50,640 --> 01:18:53,960
Speaker 1: an interesting speaker they disagree with um, you know, they

1358
01:18:54,040 --> 01:18:56,280
Speaker 1: might they they're somewhere in the middle. You know, some

1359
01:18:56,320 --> 01:18:58,479
Speaker 1: of them think, well, if they're going to say something

1360
01:18:58,520 --> 01:19:00,759
Speaker 1: really terrible, maybe they shouldn't be here. But they're certainly

1361
01:19:00,760 --> 01:19:02,840
Speaker 1: not going to shut down the person. Many of them

1362
01:19:02,840 --> 01:19:05,320
Speaker 1: would like to hear, but they're afraid of these activists too.

1363
01:19:05,320 --> 01:19:07,840
Speaker 1: And now I've been at events where so this is

1364
01:19:07,880 --> 01:19:10,479
Speaker 1: the best way to defeat these activists is when someone

1365
01:19:10,560 --> 01:19:13,840
Speaker 1: else in the audience. Oftentimes it is a member of

1366
01:19:13,880 --> 01:19:17,640
Speaker 1: the quote unquote marginalized group who's supposedly maligned or is

1367
01:19:17,720 --> 01:19:20,759
Speaker 1: you know, literally being killed by the speaker, will stand

1368
01:19:20,840 --> 01:19:23,080
Speaker 1: up and say, I would like to hear what whoever

1369
01:19:23,080 --> 01:19:24,400
Speaker 1: it is, I would like to hear what they have

1370
01:19:24,479 --> 01:19:25,960
Speaker 1: to say. I don't think I agree with it, but

1371
01:19:26,000 --> 01:19:27,920
Speaker 1: I would like to hear it. And that sucks a

1372
01:19:27,920 --> 01:19:31,519
Speaker 1: lot of authority out of the you know, the people

1373
01:19:31,560 --> 01:19:34,160
Speaker 1: who are who are trying to shout him down. So

1374
01:19:34,960 --> 01:19:37,920
Speaker 1: when when the mob is confronted, because it doesn't have

1375
01:19:37,960 --> 01:19:40,920
Speaker 1: the numbers and it doesn't have the institutional policies on

1376
01:19:40,920 --> 01:19:43,320
Speaker 1: its side, in a lot of cases, it actually just

1377
01:19:43,360 --> 01:19:46,280
Speaker 1: takes being confronted and they can't they can be stopped,

1378
01:19:46,280 --> 01:19:49,240
Speaker 1: they can lose their their you know, they they start

1379
01:19:49,240 --> 01:19:51,280
Speaker 1: to they judge the room a little bit. They go, Okay,

1380
01:19:51,320 --> 01:19:53,679
Speaker 1: well maybe we're you know, this shutdown is not actually

1381
01:19:53,720 --> 01:19:56,400
Speaker 1: going to be successful, so that can work. And I,

1382
01:19:56,680 --> 01:19:59,040
Speaker 1: you know, I hope more people are courageous in doing

1383
01:19:59,040 --> 01:20:01,439
Speaker 1: that on campuses. Were you? If I can just ask

1384
01:20:01,560 --> 01:20:03,920
Speaker 1: Robbie and everyone can check out Robbie's book Panic Attack,

1385
01:20:03,960 --> 01:20:06,920
Speaker 1: which is just on the crazy left. Which is one

1386
01:20:06,960 --> 01:20:09,439
Speaker 1: problem I have on radio is I needed Thesaurus just

1387
01:20:09,479 --> 01:20:11,280
Speaker 1: to come up with all the different ways to say

1388
01:20:11,360 --> 01:20:15,200
Speaker 1: crazy psycho, whacko whacka do because a lot of their

1389
01:20:15,200 --> 01:20:18,320
Speaker 1: stuff these days, that's the only way you can really

1390
01:20:18,320 --> 01:20:20,719
Speaker 1: describe it. But were you yourself and your day, Robbie

1391
01:20:20,840 --> 01:20:25,720
Speaker 1: a campus counter revolutionary? Because I definitely want I was.

1392
01:20:25,840 --> 01:20:28,080
Speaker 1: I went to the Unarsity of Michigan, where I was

1393
01:20:28,080 --> 01:20:31,400
Speaker 1: pretty much a libertarian student the whole time, but I

1394
01:20:31,400 --> 01:20:33,639
Speaker 1: worked for the campus paper. I worked with a lot

1395
01:20:33,680 --> 01:20:37,240
Speaker 1: of very far left students who I disagreed with on

1396
01:20:37,320 --> 01:20:40,360
Speaker 1: almost everything. But but then back then an He's thought

1397
01:20:40,400 --> 01:20:42,200
Speaker 1: that long ago, two thousand and six to two thousand

1398
01:20:42,240 --> 01:20:45,000
Speaker 1: and ten, they were pro free speech lactist. You know,

1399
01:20:45,000 --> 01:20:46,720
Speaker 1: if somebody was going to come on to campus, we

1400
01:20:46,720 --> 01:20:48,240
Speaker 1: were going to defend their right to do that. It

1401
01:20:48,320 --> 01:20:50,679
Speaker 1: was it was actually there's more likely there was gonna

1402
01:20:50,680 --> 01:20:52,479
Speaker 1: be some conservative groups that were going to be offended

1403
01:20:52,520 --> 01:20:56,679
Speaker 1: if it was a very provocative speaker, very far someone

1404
01:20:56,720 --> 01:20:59,800
Speaker 1: like Bill Ayres or something. But that has just comp

1405
01:21:00,000 --> 01:21:02,400
Speaker 1: comletely shifted in the last few years where it has

1406
01:21:02,439 --> 01:21:05,920
Speaker 1: become the left has been the is the pro censorship

1407
01:21:05,960 --> 01:21:08,519
Speaker 1: movement on campus. It's been extraordinary to watch that change

1408
01:21:08,560 --> 01:21:12,160
Speaker 1: happen so quickly, just even since I was on campus.

1409
01:21:13,040 --> 01:21:18,040
Speaker 1: Upcoming book Panic Attack author is Robbie Suave and he

1410
01:21:18,160 --> 01:21:20,160
Speaker 1: is alone cool cat. You should check out his book.

1411
01:21:20,160 --> 01:21:22,960
Speaker 1: Also reason dot com for his latest Robbie always great

1412
01:21:22,960 --> 01:21:24,920
Speaker 1: to talk to you, my friend. Congrats and come back

1413
01:21:24,960 --> 01:21:27,639
Speaker 1: as soon as the books on shelves. I'd be happy

1414
01:21:27,640 --> 01:21:30,040
Speaker 1: to thank you so much. Team will be right back.

1415
01:21:31,080 --> 01:21:34,840
Speaker 1: Is it wrong to say that a man can't have

1416
01:21:34,960 --> 01:21:37,320
Speaker 1: a baby. Is it wrong to say that a man

1417
01:21:37,479 --> 01:21:41,680
Speaker 1: can't be a woman. Well, if you're talking about correctness,

1418
01:21:42,160 --> 01:21:46,160
Speaker 1: of course that is correct. These are these are true

1419
01:21:46,400 --> 01:21:49,080
Speaker 1: factual statements. But if you're talking about political correctness, well

1420
01:21:49,080 --> 01:21:52,200
Speaker 1: then it is considered wrong these days to say that

1421
01:21:52,240 --> 01:21:54,320
Speaker 1: a man can have a baby and a man cannot

1422
01:21:54,320 --> 01:21:57,719
Speaker 1: be a woman. I have a friend joining now who's

1423
01:21:57,760 --> 01:22:00,599
Speaker 1: going to talk about the front lines of this very

1424
01:22:00,680 --> 01:22:04,760
Speaker 1: real debate. Folks. This is the amy edge of progressive

1425
01:22:04,800 --> 01:22:08,120
Speaker 1: politics right now. This is in the vanguard. Our friend,

1426
01:22:08,800 --> 01:22:12,400
Speaker 1: Sir Rob Amari, joins us now. He is op ed

1427
01:22:12,479 --> 01:22:14,920
Speaker 1: editor of a New York Post, an author of From

1428
01:22:15,000 --> 01:22:19,639
Speaker 1: Fire by Water, My Journey to the Catholic Faith. Sir Rob,

1429
01:22:19,640 --> 01:22:21,040
Speaker 1: great to have you, my friend, and I just want

1430
01:22:21,120 --> 01:22:23,840
Speaker 1: to know how how did you first become somebody who

1431
01:22:23,920 --> 01:22:27,559
Speaker 1: was involved in this debate which the left has turned

1432
01:22:27,600 --> 01:22:31,639
Speaker 1: this into debate that a man can't have a baby. Well,

1433
01:22:31,640 --> 01:22:34,880
Speaker 1: and most recently because I encountered a story in The

1434
01:22:34,920 --> 01:22:38,559
Speaker 1: Guardian and the Daily Mail about a Guardian journalist named

1435
01:22:38,680 --> 01:22:42,400
Speaker 1: those named Freddie Connolly. First named Freddie obviously is a

1436
01:22:42,400 --> 01:22:45,960
Speaker 1: man's name, who you know, is a subject of this

1437
01:22:46,080 --> 01:22:49,200
Speaker 1: documentary premiering at the Rebecca Film Festival in New York,

1438
01:22:49,560 --> 01:22:54,120
Speaker 1: that details quote unquote his journey as a man to

1439
01:22:54,200 --> 01:22:58,160
Speaker 1: become a baby. What she is is a female to

1440
01:22:58,360 --> 01:23:02,479
Speaker 1: male transgender, but biology being what it is, she still

1441
01:23:02,520 --> 01:23:06,599
Speaker 1: has a uterus and a capacity to to have a child.

1442
01:23:06,680 --> 01:23:10,760
Speaker 1: So it's about his I cringe when I say that

1443
01:23:10,920 --> 01:23:15,960
Speaker 1: his quote unquote his journey to pregnancy and childbearing, and

1444
01:23:16,000 --> 01:23:19,480
Speaker 1: I just thought, and all the all the news coverage

1445
01:23:19,560 --> 01:23:22,840
Speaker 1: was using to his pronoun like he's pregnant, he's this

1446
01:23:23,000 --> 01:23:25,479
Speaker 1: and that, and I just I can't stand it. So

1447
01:23:25,560 --> 01:23:28,559
Speaker 1: I just sent out a tweet which became kind of viral,

1448
01:23:29,000 --> 01:23:31,760
Speaker 1: where I said, we have to be able to say

1449
01:23:31,840 --> 01:23:36,439
Speaker 1: basic truth and not fall into this totalitarian trap. Men

1450
01:23:36,640 --> 01:23:41,400
Speaker 1: cannot have babies. I repeat, men cannot have babies. And

1451
01:23:41,720 --> 01:23:44,880
Speaker 1: people dispute this. I mean, this is what we've come to,

1452
01:23:44,920 --> 01:23:49,559
Speaker 1: this crazy place where I've actually seen journalists who work

1453
01:23:49,640 --> 01:23:54,479
Speaker 1: for real publications who take the perspective that it is

1454
01:23:55,320 --> 01:23:57,519
Speaker 1: and you know, earmuffs for the for the young ones

1455
01:23:57,560 --> 01:24:00,839
Speaker 1: out there, but that not just women to have periods.

1456
01:24:01,120 --> 01:24:03,599
Speaker 1: This is also an article of faith. Now on the left,

1457
01:24:03,800 --> 01:24:05,720
Speaker 1: have you seen this because this is another one. Yes,

1458
01:24:05,840 --> 01:24:12,519
Speaker 1: because there are transgender men who have periods because they're

1459
01:24:12,520 --> 01:24:16,400
Speaker 1: still their menstruate, because they still have the reproductive organs

1460
01:24:16,439 --> 01:24:22,080
Speaker 1: that since time immemorial we've used to determine someone's sex.

1461
01:24:23,120 --> 01:24:26,240
Speaker 1: And so they say not all, not all? Uh is

1462
01:24:26,479 --> 01:24:29,800
Speaker 1: you know that men can can menstrate? Um? Yes, So

1463
01:24:30,000 --> 01:24:33,160
Speaker 1: here's what's really happening in this book about a decade ago.

1464
01:24:33,240 --> 01:24:37,160
Speaker 1: As recently as a decade ago, the LGBT groups still

1465
01:24:37,200 --> 01:24:41,200
Speaker 1: said that transgender people are born in one sex but

1466
01:24:41,400 --> 01:24:45,120
Speaker 1: identify with another. And there is a very small subsection

1467
01:24:45,160 --> 01:24:47,880
Speaker 1: of people who have this problem, and it was still

1468
01:24:48,040 --> 01:24:52,800
Speaker 1: thought about as as a mental disorder. But as time

1469
01:24:52,880 --> 01:24:56,519
Speaker 1: war on, the agenda has become ever more radical, so

1470
01:24:56,560 --> 01:24:59,880
Speaker 1: that the trans movement no longer says and I kid

1471
01:24:59,880 --> 01:25:01,960
Speaker 1: you not, no longer says so, and so is a

1472
01:25:02,000 --> 01:25:04,200
Speaker 1: man who identifies as a woman or a woman who

1473
01:25:04,240 --> 01:25:08,000
Speaker 1: identifies as man. No, that person is a man, was

1474
01:25:08,080 --> 01:25:12,040
Speaker 1: always a man. And that's the kind of radical by

1475
01:25:12,040 --> 01:25:15,719
Speaker 1: the way, you know, mind matter dualism that they trade

1476
01:25:15,720 --> 01:25:19,960
Speaker 1: in that you know, my subjective sense that I'm a

1477
01:25:20,000 --> 01:25:24,080
Speaker 1: woman overrides everything, to override all we know about biology,

1478
01:25:24,120 --> 01:25:28,280
Speaker 1: about chromosomes, about how sex differentiation happens at the motive

1479
01:25:29,000 --> 01:25:32,639
Speaker 1: moment of conception with any kind of species like us

1480
01:25:32,720 --> 01:25:36,360
Speaker 1: that has sexual dimorphism, All of that is overridden by

1481
01:25:36,439 --> 01:25:40,640
Speaker 1: my subjective state. And therefore, if I say I'm not

1482
01:25:40,720 --> 01:25:43,320
Speaker 1: so rob and Buck, you have to call me Sabrina.

1483
01:25:43,600 --> 01:25:45,840
Speaker 1: You have to call me Sabrina. And not only was

1484
01:25:45,880 --> 01:25:49,559
Speaker 1: I not, I was always Sabrina. It's this bizarre kind

1485
01:25:49,560 --> 01:25:51,720
Speaker 1: of memory holding. I was always well, this is why

1486
01:25:51,840 --> 01:25:53,960
Speaker 1: dead naming. You know what you're talking about, That this

1487
01:25:53,960 --> 01:25:56,679
Speaker 1: this concept of dead naming, which right now can get

1488
01:25:56,720 --> 01:25:59,040
Speaker 1: you banned from Twitter. I'm sure you know that that's

1489
01:25:59,080 --> 01:26:03,280
Speaker 1: that's an official Twitter dick tot that if you dead

1490
01:26:03,320 --> 01:26:06,200
Speaker 1: name someone. And I've always wondered people get names wrong

1491
01:26:06,200 --> 01:26:08,320
Speaker 1: all the time. People make fun of my kind of

1492
01:26:08,320 --> 01:26:10,439
Speaker 1: weird name all the time. I mean, that's this doesn't

1493
01:26:10,439 --> 01:26:13,640
Speaker 1: seem like some horrible thing, especially given that you know

1494
01:26:13,680 --> 01:26:16,760
Speaker 1: occasionally I will refer to Bradley Manning. Well, I just did,

1495
01:26:16,800 --> 01:26:19,080
Speaker 1: but I mean I'll refer to the person now who

1496
01:26:19,120 --> 01:26:21,639
Speaker 1: is called Chelsea Manning as Bradley Manning. I'm not doing

1497
01:26:21,680 --> 01:26:24,960
Speaker 1: it to put anyone down, but when he stole all

1498
01:26:24,960 --> 01:26:28,479
Speaker 1: that stuff, he was Bradley Manning. And yet if you

1499
01:26:28,560 --> 01:26:31,120
Speaker 1: do that, it's considered a grave offense. And I think

1500
01:26:31,200 --> 01:26:33,840
Speaker 1: you're explaining to me within the transgender community and on

1501
01:26:33,880 --> 01:26:36,840
Speaker 1: the left why it's such a grave offense, because it's

1502
01:26:36,920 --> 01:26:40,720
Speaker 1: not that there has been a decision made to change

1503
01:26:40,760 --> 01:26:44,480
Speaker 1: from say Bradley to Chelsea. It's that Chelsea Manning, according

1504
01:26:44,520 --> 01:26:50,200
Speaker 1: to the Left's just revision of reality. Bradley was always Chelsea.

1505
01:26:50,320 --> 01:26:56,200
Speaker 1: This is fascinating, Yes, So, I mean this is a

1506
01:26:56,320 --> 01:27:01,240
Speaker 1: pretty radical departure from not only obviously what Western tradition

1507
01:27:01,320 --> 01:27:03,920
Speaker 1: has handed us down, you know, through through the Judeo

1508
01:27:04,000 --> 01:27:07,599
Speaker 1: Christian tradition of genesis. Set genesis aside. This is an

1509
01:27:07,600 --> 01:27:11,080
Speaker 1: assault on science. By the way. The thing that's very

1510
01:27:11,080 --> 01:27:14,080
Speaker 1: interesting to be is how how often the trans movement

1511
01:27:14,240 --> 01:27:17,160
Speaker 1: ends up working against the aims of the at least

1512
01:27:17,160 --> 01:27:19,800
Speaker 1: what used to be the aims of the feminist movement. So,

1513
01:27:19,880 --> 01:27:23,960
Speaker 1: for example, you have athletes who are born male now

1514
01:27:24,000 --> 01:27:28,559
Speaker 1: identify as female, competing against biological women, but because they

1515
01:27:28,640 --> 01:27:34,240
Speaker 1: have the stamina and the muscle mass of well male athletes,

1516
01:27:34,280 --> 01:27:37,280
Speaker 1: they really dominate the fields that they get into. So

1517
01:27:37,640 --> 01:27:42,240
Speaker 1: women's sports gradually becoming to be dominated by men. Now. Pregnancy,

1518
01:27:42,360 --> 01:27:45,400
Speaker 1: something that used to be always bound up deeply with

1519
01:27:45,479 --> 01:27:47,519
Speaker 1: femininity and what it meant to be a woman, something

1520
01:27:47,520 --> 01:27:50,040
Speaker 1: that you and I buck could never experience. There was

1521
01:27:50,120 --> 01:27:53,120
Speaker 1: something sacred about that, it's something that women to pride in,

1522
01:27:53,600 --> 01:27:56,519
Speaker 1: is now being framed as a male experience because there

1523
01:27:56,560 --> 01:27:59,600
Speaker 1: are these so called men who can become pregnant in

1524
01:27:59,680 --> 01:28:02,040
Speaker 1: each of these instances this women who take a kind

1525
01:28:02,080 --> 01:28:05,120
Speaker 1: of back seat. Now if you open the like top

1526
01:28:05,160 --> 01:28:07,599
Speaker 1: women's glossy magazines, the ones that are like the woman

1527
01:28:07,640 --> 01:28:10,120
Speaker 1: of the year, often nowadays the woman of the year

1528
01:28:10,160 --> 01:28:13,400
Speaker 1: is someone who was born male. So this erasing biological woman,

1529
01:28:14,240 --> 01:28:17,000
Speaker 1: it's it's incredible, and it's really it's all just self

1530
01:28:17,000 --> 01:28:20,519
Speaker 1: contradiction and really a form of insanity. But sarab as

01:28:40,080 --> 01:28:43,639
Speaker 1: great to talk to you. Team. Cheers, my friend. We've

1540
01:28:43,680 --> 01:28:46,559
Speaker 1: got more coming up here. And just just a moment,

1541
01:28:46,560 --> 01:28:50,920
Speaker 1: you know, occasionally things get a little spicy on the

1542
01:28:50,920 --> 01:28:53,280
Speaker 1: set of Rising it does it does happen, or there

1543
01:28:53,280 --> 01:28:55,879
Speaker 1: are moments when I got to bust out the spice

1544
01:28:56,160 --> 01:28:58,280
Speaker 1: put some put some hot sauce on it, so to speaking,

1545
01:28:58,320 --> 01:29:00,280
Speaker 1: Today was one of those days. I just I just

1546
01:29:00,360 --> 01:29:04,679
Speaker 1: kind of had it with a Russia collusion truther who's

1547
01:29:04,680 --> 01:29:06,680
Speaker 1: actually a nice guy, and I don't I don't have

1548
01:29:06,720 --> 01:29:08,920
Speaker 1: anything against him. I just think he's very, very wrong

1549
01:29:08,960 --> 01:29:10,360
Speaker 1: on this. But we'll get to that in a moment.

1550
01:29:10,800 --> 01:29:16,080
Speaker 1: There was no indictable conspiracy. There was absolutely collusion, you

1551
01:29:16,120 --> 01:29:17,839
Speaker 1: know there was. They took a meeting with the Russians,

1552
01:29:17,880 --> 01:29:20,280
Speaker 1: they took the information from the Russians. He called on

1553
01:29:20,320 --> 01:29:24,000
Speaker 1: the Russians to release uh, to release the Nier. What

1554
01:29:24,080 --> 01:29:26,599
Speaker 1: is your definition of collusion? That would be it taking

1555
01:29:26,640 --> 01:29:30,240
Speaker 1: a meeting with somebody. Now we had to take the meeting,

1556
01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:32,240
Speaker 1: taking not knowing what they're going to tell your Oh, yes,

1557
01:29:32,240 --> 01:29:33,599
Speaker 1: they didn't know what they were going to tell them.

1558
01:29:33,600 --> 01:29:36,120
Speaker 1: They knew exactly well they were taking. They didn't give

1559
01:29:36,160 --> 01:29:38,240
Speaker 1: the causation of the meeting. They were taking the meeting

1560
01:29:38,320 --> 01:29:43,080
Speaker 1: because they were they were they were proffered negative information

1561
01:29:43,360 --> 01:29:46,200
Speaker 1: on Hillary Clinton from the Russian government. That it was

1562
01:29:46,240 --> 01:29:48,800
Speaker 1: not from the Russian government, from a Russian lawyer. It

1563
01:29:48,840 --> 01:29:51,280
Speaker 1: was absolutely from Russian government. I need to know something

1564
01:29:51,320 --> 01:29:53,200
Speaker 1: if that's a really bad idea. If that's wrong and

1565
01:29:53,320 --> 01:29:56,479
Speaker 1: terrible and nasty, what is it when the DNC pays

1566
01:29:56,520 --> 01:29:59,439
Speaker 1: a law firm to hire a foreigner Christopher Steele, who

1567
01:29:59,479 --> 01:30:01,160
Speaker 1: was not a US citizen, has no role in US

1568
01:30:01,200 --> 01:30:05,519
Speaker 1: election whatsoever, To use Russian subsources in a smear campaign

1569
01:30:05,560 --> 01:30:07,280
Speaker 1: that now the New York Times itself says may have

1570
01:30:07,320 --> 01:30:10,760
Speaker 1: been a Russian disinformation campaign and run that through the

1571
01:30:10,800 --> 01:30:13,120
Speaker 1: FBI and the press in this country. Who bought the

1572
01:30:13,120 --> 01:30:14,880
Speaker 1: whole thing holk Line and Sinker first? How is that

1573
01:30:14,960 --> 01:30:19,280
Speaker 1: not for interference in the election. I just need to know. Okay, okay,

1574
01:30:19,360 --> 01:30:21,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna answer your question. Yeah, go for it. First

1575
01:30:21,160 --> 01:30:24,040
Speaker 1: of all, it was Republicans who hired them that first trap.

1576
01:30:24,240 --> 01:30:26,720
Speaker 1: It's true. Is It's just true? It is not. That

1577
01:30:26,760 --> 01:30:30,080
Speaker 1: was for a that was a separate contract doing separate work.

1578
01:30:30,160 --> 01:30:32,160
Speaker 1: It's for this is like saying that if you hire

1579
01:30:32,160 --> 01:30:33,840
Speaker 1: a lawyer to one thing, that somebody else has a

1580
01:30:33,880 --> 01:30:35,720
Speaker 1: lawyer later on. It's the same case at the top,

1581
01:30:35,760 --> 01:30:37,760
Speaker 1: the same case. Did you read facts Checker yesterday in

1582
01:30:37,800 --> 01:30:40,760
Speaker 1: the post they took down They went down every allegation

1583
01:30:40,800 --> 01:30:45,000
Speaker 1: in the Steel dossier, and all but one are confirmed

1584
01:30:45,920 --> 01:30:49,040
Speaker 1: and The only one that's not confirmed are the videotapes.

1585
01:30:49,200 --> 01:30:51,519
Speaker 1: You're kidding me that the Golden Showers, the Golden Showers

1586
01:30:51,600 --> 01:30:53,680
Speaker 1: videotapes of the President United States. That's what did I

1587
01:30:53,720 --> 01:30:57,240
Speaker 1: just say, that's the one that's not confirmed. How you're

1588
01:30:57,280 --> 01:30:59,320
Speaker 1: saying like there's so much wrong here that I'm gonna

1589
01:30:59,360 --> 01:31:00,960
Speaker 1: lose my monk Mike Collin, has he been a PROD

1590
01:31:01,040 --> 01:31:03,479
Speaker 1: guests or no, we don't really know. We think that

1591
01:31:03,600 --> 01:31:06,160
Speaker 1: you're you're in a fantasy You're in a fantasy land

1592
01:31:06,240 --> 01:31:11,040
Speaker 1: right now. That's absolute well, fantasyland, baby, that's where the

1593
01:31:11,080 --> 01:31:13,240
Speaker 1: Democrats are. That was from Rising today. That was a

1594
01:31:13,240 --> 01:31:19,639
Speaker 1: fun one. I gotta say, complete and utter nonsense. I mean,

1595
01:31:19,760 --> 01:31:25,719
Speaker 1: just as ridiculous as ridiculous gets. And you know Joe McClane,

1596
01:31:25,760 --> 01:31:28,479
Speaker 1: he's he's a smart guy. I'm and I actually I

1597
01:31:28,640 --> 01:31:31,920
Speaker 1: like Joe. So I'm not here to to trash Joe

1598
01:31:32,040 --> 01:31:35,719
Speaker 1: as as a person. I'm not. But he he suffers

1599
01:31:35,760 --> 01:31:38,800
Speaker 1: from trump to arrangement syndrome. I mean, he has a

1600
01:31:38,960 --> 01:31:41,280
Speaker 1: he has a problem. It's like I'm sitting there and

1601
01:31:41,320 --> 01:31:44,360
Speaker 1: I'm talking to an addict. But instead of him being like, hey,

1602
01:31:44,360 --> 01:31:46,679
Speaker 1: like I need my meth man, like, give me my meth.

1603
01:31:47,200 --> 01:31:50,200
Speaker 1: He's like, I need my Russia collusion. Man, it's just

1604
01:31:50,880 --> 01:31:53,559
Speaker 1: not normal. I mean the things that he's saying. The

1605
01:31:53,680 --> 01:31:57,479
Speaker 1: Russian government had nothing to do with the Trump Tower meeting.

1606
01:31:57,920 --> 01:32:01,080
Speaker 1: That was a woman who has tiesed She's a Russian

1607
01:32:01,360 --> 01:32:03,920
Speaker 1: lawyer who has ties to the Russian government. By the way,

1608
01:32:04,000 --> 01:32:07,160
Speaker 1: also has ties to Fusion GPS, which they always leave

1609
01:32:07,200 --> 01:32:11,040
Speaker 1: out of this, which is highly shady, very suspect, isn't

1610
01:32:11,080 --> 01:32:14,639
Speaker 1: it The very firm that was using the dossier, pulling

1611
01:32:14,640 --> 01:32:17,240
Speaker 1: the dossier together and then having it run through our

1612
01:32:17,240 --> 01:32:22,160
Speaker 1: own intelligence community. That same firm had hired Natalia Vezelnidskaya

1613
01:32:22,680 --> 01:32:25,960
Speaker 1: to work for them to get or was working together

1614
01:32:26,320 --> 01:32:29,080
Speaker 1: with regard to Russian sanctions. We're supposed to think that's

1615
01:32:29,080 --> 01:32:33,040
Speaker 1: a coincidence, folks. Come on, we're past that, right, I

1616
01:32:33,040 --> 01:32:35,599
Speaker 1: know you and I are. But even the Democrats should

1617
01:32:35,960 --> 01:32:38,679
Speaker 1: not hold on to that delusion. But they're holding onto

1618
01:32:38,680 --> 01:32:41,479
Speaker 1: a lot of delusions also. This just these are the

1619
01:32:41,520 --> 01:32:43,320
Speaker 1: talking points though. This was it was like I was

1620
01:32:43,400 --> 01:32:45,720
Speaker 1: checking him for Trump to arrangement syndromes. You know, do

1621
01:32:45,800 --> 01:32:48,599
Speaker 1: you have a fever, you know, do your reflex his work?

1622
01:32:48,800 --> 01:32:52,360
Speaker 1: Are you having, you know, trouble breathing, and like one

1623
01:32:52,479 --> 01:32:55,799
Speaker 1: symptom after another from Trump to arrangement syndrome. The Russian

1624
01:32:55,840 --> 01:32:59,480
Speaker 1: government did collude with Trump. The Republicans paid for the dossier.

1625
01:33:00,000 --> 01:33:05,240
Speaker 1: The dossier is true. I said, can you just admit

1626
01:33:05,280 --> 01:33:07,720
Speaker 1: that Michael Cohen under oath that he's never been to

1627
01:33:07,760 --> 01:33:11,559
Speaker 1: Prague and even forget what he says under oath unless

1628
01:33:11,600 --> 01:33:14,639
Speaker 1: you believe that Michael Cohen's actually a superspy and has

1629
01:33:14,680 --> 01:33:17,760
Speaker 1: fake identities that he travels under finding out. I worked

1630
01:33:17,800 --> 01:33:19,920
Speaker 1: in law enforcement, I worked in the intelligence community. I

1631
01:33:19,960 --> 01:33:22,479
Speaker 1: know this for a fact finding out where someone has

1632
01:33:22,479 --> 01:33:25,800
Speaker 1: done international travel when they're a US citizen, if you

1633
01:33:25,880 --> 01:33:30,160
Speaker 1: have the proper database and clearance takes about thirty seconds.

1634
01:33:31,320 --> 01:33:34,880
Speaker 1: So this is just crazy. I mean, there's no question

1635
01:33:34,920 --> 01:33:37,920
Speaker 1: that Michael Cohen has never been to Prague. Never mind

1636
01:33:37,960 --> 01:33:39,760
Speaker 1: what he said under oath. We know he's never been

1637
01:33:39,840 --> 01:33:42,360
Speaker 1: to Prague, and that was in the dossier. We know

1638
01:33:42,439 --> 01:33:45,040
Speaker 1: that there are no quote Golden Showers videos, and that

1639
01:33:45,120 --> 01:33:48,200
Speaker 1: was in the dossier. We know that there's so much

1640
01:33:48,240 --> 01:33:50,840
Speaker 1: in the dossier that's not true. But they run around

1641
01:33:50,880 --> 01:33:53,280
Speaker 1: just saying they repeat the lie enough, you know it's

1642
01:33:53,320 --> 01:33:56,919
Speaker 1: four legs good, two legs bad. They repeat the phrase

1643
01:33:57,200 --> 01:34:00,400
Speaker 1: enough that no one challenges it, that no one thinks

1644
01:34:00,400 --> 01:34:05,360
Speaker 1: more about it anyway. Sometimes he needed a buck slap.

1645
01:34:06,360 --> 01:34:08,559
Speaker 1: Joe needed a buck slap today, and I think right

1646
01:34:08,600 --> 01:34:10,600
Speaker 1: now he's got a handprint on the left side of

1647
01:34:10,640 --> 01:34:13,640
Speaker 1: his face. But it was kind of deserved. Ain't no

1648
01:34:13,840 --> 01:34:16,880
Speaker 1: party like a Team Buck party? Because a Team Buck

1649
01:34:16,960 --> 01:34:26,720
Speaker 1: party don't stop. Yeah, we got Buck turned up to eleven.

1650
01:34:39,120 --> 01:34:42,759
Speaker 1: It's time for roll call. Doesn't that announce your voice

1651
01:34:43,520 --> 01:34:45,840
Speaker 1: sound a bit that's our friend Andy who does the

1652
01:34:45,920 --> 01:34:47,600
Speaker 1: voice over there. Doesn't it sound a little bit like

1653
01:34:47,680 --> 01:34:52,880
Speaker 1: Optimist Prime? What do you think, Mark autobots Unite? Isn't

1654
01:34:52,880 --> 01:34:55,360
Speaker 1: that what he says? He does sound like that? He

1655
01:34:55,439 --> 01:34:57,320
Speaker 1: does say he sounds a little bit like Optimist Prime.

1656
01:34:57,360 --> 01:35:00,479
Speaker 1: Optimist Prime was a badass, sad I liked Optimist back then.

1657
01:35:00,120 --> 01:35:03,640
Speaker 1: The cartoons were great. Then they made the movies, and

1658
01:35:03,800 --> 01:35:06,439
Speaker 1: movies were not so good. I'm gonna avoid complaining today

1659
01:35:06,479 --> 01:35:09,240
Speaker 1: about the fact that there are you know, all these

1660
01:35:09,280 --> 01:35:16,240
Speaker 1: people who are going to go see the Avengers whatever,

1661
01:35:16,400 --> 01:35:21,840
Speaker 1: Avengers Endless Infinity Ultra Oh, there we go, and Avengers

1662
01:35:21,920 --> 01:35:24,840
Speaker 1: Endless in Infinity Ultra end game or whatever it's called.

01:35:24,880 --> 01:35:30,760
Speaker 1: There we go, so we'll see, we will see. Um,

1664
01:35:32,000 --> 01:35:34,519
Speaker 1: are you gonna go see it? Mark? Or are you

1665
01:35:34,560 --> 01:35:38,639
Speaker 1: actually in this? You? Are you like these? All? Right?

1666
01:35:38,680 --> 01:35:40,800
Speaker 1: You know what I give? Everyone likes the except I'm

1667
01:35:40,800 --> 01:35:44,400
Speaker 1: just a weirdo. Everyone likes these these movies. It's gonna

1668
01:35:44,400 --> 01:35:46,600
Speaker 1: make a billion dollars, folks. It's gonna open to like

1669
01:35:46,600 --> 01:35:49,200
Speaker 1: a three hundred million dollars weekend in China or something

1670
01:35:49,240 --> 01:35:51,400
Speaker 1: crazy like that. And I'm just sitting here like, oh,

1671
01:35:51,520 --> 01:35:55,160
Speaker 1: get off my lawn with the Avengers. I don't like it.

1672
01:35:56,200 --> 01:35:59,160
Speaker 1: Have you ever even tried to like them? Dude? I Mark,

1673
01:35:59,200 --> 01:36:01,439
Speaker 1: I'm telling you of try Man, I've given him a shot.

1674
01:36:01,479 --> 01:36:05,880
Speaker 1: I actually thought that the thor movie Ragnarok, who had

1675
01:36:05,920 --> 01:36:08,519
Speaker 1: some funny moments. I actually thought that wasn't terrible. But

1676
01:36:08,600 --> 01:36:10,559
Speaker 1: some of these Avenger movies there's no plot. It's just

1677
01:36:10,640 --> 01:36:13,280
Speaker 1: like weird monsters and then lots of fights in the

1678
01:36:13,320 --> 01:36:15,559
Speaker 1: street with you know, the Hulk and the Bye. It's

1679
01:36:15,600 --> 01:36:18,439
Speaker 1: just you know, but everyone, I know, everyone, everyone drop

1680
01:36:18,479 --> 01:36:20,600
Speaker 1: for everyone. I get it. Yeah, everyone booze me on

1681
01:36:20,640 --> 01:36:22,400
Speaker 1: this one. I know. I understand. It's just a lot

1682
01:36:22,400 --> 01:36:25,400
Speaker 1: of cgi and not a lot of thoughtful dialogue or acting.

1683
01:36:25,439 --> 01:36:29,120
Speaker 1: All right, Marcus, you're gonna save me for myself? Here ah,

1684
01:36:29,840 --> 01:36:33,840
Speaker 1: here we go, Marcus writes, whoa, Marcus, This is very long,

1685
01:36:33,920 --> 01:36:35,360
Speaker 1: so I can't read this on air, but thank you

1686
01:36:35,360 --> 01:36:36,599
Speaker 1: for setting it in and I will read it when

1687
01:36:36,640 --> 01:36:39,240
Speaker 1: I am done. Brandon right, Hey, Buck, have you heard

1688
01:36:39,240 --> 01:36:42,080
Speaker 1: that Tom Arnold interview he did with Michael Knowles early

1689
01:36:42,120 --> 01:36:46,320
Speaker 1: in Michael's podcast, But yes, to Brandon, not Tom. Tom

1690
01:36:46,400 --> 01:36:49,120
Speaker 1: Arnold's the other guy. There are people who have completely

1691
01:36:49,560 --> 01:36:52,120
Speaker 1: they've completely lost their minds on Russia collusion. It doesn't

1692
01:36:52,160 --> 01:36:56,360
Speaker 1: matter what what you tell them, it doesn't matter what

1693
01:36:56,400 --> 01:36:59,400
Speaker 1: the evidence is. This is a conspiracy theory, and conspiracy

1694
01:36:59,439 --> 01:37:03,240
Speaker 1: theories are very difficult for people to drop. So that's

1695
01:37:03,280 --> 01:37:08,120
Speaker 1: where we are. There you have it, Glenn, right. I

1696
01:37:08,200 --> 01:37:11,639
Speaker 1: find it interesting that President Trump drastically reduced the dependent

1697
01:37:11,720 --> 01:37:16,479
Speaker 1: class through reducing unemployment and bringing jobs back, and it

1698
01:37:16,520 --> 01:37:20,240
Speaker 1: seems the answer to that has been caravans to replenish

1699
01:37:20,240 --> 01:37:24,160
Speaker 1: the dependent class. Keep up the good work, Glenn. I

1700
01:37:24,160 --> 01:37:28,880
Speaker 1: I've said it before, I'll say it again. There are very,

1701
01:37:29,600 --> 01:37:31,920
Speaker 1: very in depth studies that look at the effect of

1702
01:37:32,760 --> 01:37:36,360
Speaker 1: illegal immigration, in particular on wages on a state by

1703
01:37:36,439 --> 01:37:41,559
Speaker 1: state and really subdistrict by subdistrict of that state, and

1704
01:37:41,800 --> 01:37:45,719
Speaker 1: it definitely has an effect and also the long term

1705
01:37:47,000 --> 01:37:52,600
Speaker 1: cost to a country of having essentially a predominantly uneducated

1706
01:37:52,640 --> 01:37:57,280
Speaker 1: and non English speaking underclass. What happens when they all retire? Folks,

1707
01:37:58,280 --> 01:38:05,479
Speaker 1: the forty year old illegal alien gardener or dishwasher, when

1708
01:38:05,520 --> 01:38:08,439
Speaker 1: he turned sixty five, he gets Medicare? Yes or no?

1709
01:38:09,240 --> 01:38:14,280
Speaker 1: The fifty year old guy who you know mows your lawn,

1710
01:38:14,880 --> 01:38:17,880
Speaker 1: does he get Medicare at sixty five? He's not in

1711
01:38:17,880 --> 01:38:19,880
Speaker 1: the country legally, he doesn't have legal stuff. There's millions

1712
01:38:19,880 --> 01:38:23,000
Speaker 1: of people like this. What happens to them? You know

1713
01:38:23,040 --> 01:38:26,439
Speaker 1: what's gonna happen. Democrats, you're gonna say, oh, it's this

1714
01:38:26,520 --> 01:38:28,680
Speaker 1: is the necessary and humane thing to do. Well, now

1715
01:38:28,720 --> 01:38:30,320
Speaker 1: we're just giving it. Now, they're just taking a lot

1716
01:38:30,320 --> 01:38:32,320
Speaker 1: of money from you and giving free healthcare to people

1717
01:38:32,360 --> 01:38:33,760
Speaker 1: that we're never supposed to be here. That's what's going

1718
01:38:33,840 --> 01:38:36,160
Speaker 1: to happen. That is what is going to happen. But

1719
01:38:37,200 --> 01:38:39,080
Speaker 1: nobody wants to listen to me. Well, you want to

1720
01:38:39,080 --> 01:38:40,599
Speaker 1: listen to me on this, but none of the Democrats

1721
01:38:40,640 --> 01:38:45,080
Speaker 1: want to listen to me on this Richard Rights, You

1722
01:38:45,080 --> 01:38:48,679
Speaker 1: are right about Mayor Big Bird. He is a moron.

1723
01:38:50,040 --> 01:38:53,400
Speaker 1: It's talking about de Blasia. Yes he's also called Mayor

1724
01:38:53,439 --> 01:38:58,000
Speaker 1: Big Bird. Yeah, but he's exactly what NYC deserves. I

1725
01:38:58,160 --> 01:39:00,360
Speaker 1: live upstate, and so as long as the idiot voters

1726
01:39:00,360 --> 01:39:03,960
Speaker 1: in NYC keep inflicting that criminal, imbecile, lunatic Andrew Cuomo

1727
01:39:04,040 --> 01:39:07,160
Speaker 1: on us, they deserve everything they get from their idiot mayor.

1728
01:39:07,680 --> 01:39:12,360
Speaker 1: I hope he bankrupts them. Well, I hope you bankrupt yourself, sir,

1729
01:39:12,560 --> 01:39:18,200
Speaker 1: because Governor Cuomo has only one speed, and it involves

1730
01:39:18,280 --> 01:39:22,760
Speaker 1: yelling and talking down to people as though they're all

1731
01:39:22,920 --> 01:39:27,720
Speaker 1: hard of hearing and very stupid. I don't really have

1732
01:39:27,840 --> 01:39:31,080
Speaker 1: a Deblasio impression, except he kind of sounds like this,

1733
01:39:31,400 --> 01:39:34,080
Speaker 1: and he's just like, I'm just gonna retro fit all

1734
01:39:34,120 --> 01:39:38,160
Speaker 1: the buildings because of climate change because my name is

1735
01:39:38,240 --> 01:39:42,320
Speaker 1: Bill de Blasio. If you listen to de Blasio clip,

1736
01:39:42,360 --> 01:39:46,080
Speaker 1: he kind of sounds like that. I think you think

1737
01:39:46,120 --> 01:39:53,320
Speaker 1: I'm playing, but I'm for real. Robert Buck, I am

1738
01:39:53,320 --> 01:39:56,559
Speaker 1: praying I misheard you. Please tell me you didn't just

1739
01:39:56,600 --> 01:39:59,760
Speaker 1: say When it's love, it's Van Halen's best song. That's

1740
01:39:59,760 --> 01:40:03,519
Speaker 1: like saying Joe Scarbrough is your favorite conservative. Ouch the

1741
01:40:03,680 --> 01:40:07,519
Speaker 1: range is hot today. Nothing with Sammy Hagar can be

1742
01:40:07,600 --> 01:40:11,719
Speaker 1: considered even good. Van Halen Okay, at best, go back

1743
01:40:11,880 --> 01:40:15,400
Speaker 1: and listen to van Halen one and two. Love the show? Well, Robert,

1744
01:40:15,439 --> 01:40:19,240
Speaker 1: I think your van Halen knowledge likely exceeds my own.

1745
01:40:19,920 --> 01:40:21,880
Speaker 1: So I don't know that I'm in a position to

1746
01:40:21,920 --> 01:40:24,760
Speaker 1: really challenge you on this. But how do I know?

1747
01:40:25,040 --> 01:40:33,280
Speaker 1: When it's love? It can't spread a da oh? That

1748
01:40:33,360 --> 01:40:36,280
Speaker 1: part I got, That's all. That's all I've got for

1749
01:40:36,280 --> 01:40:38,439
Speaker 1: you on that one. I'm gonna stop. I'm not. I

1750
01:40:38,479 --> 01:40:40,559
Speaker 1: was gonna quit while I'm ahead, but I'm actually not

1751
01:40:41,400 --> 01:40:43,880
Speaker 1: quitting while I'm ahead, am I I'm in fact, I'm

1752
01:40:43,920 --> 01:40:48,719
Speaker 1: in fact way behind. It's kind of sad Andre's cool

1753
01:40:48,800 --> 01:40:52,479
Speaker 1: spelling of the name. By the way, San Francisco fecal

1754
01:40:52,520 --> 01:40:56,160
Speaker 1: maps are celebrity fecal maps going to do the next thing? Wow,

1755
01:40:56,160 --> 01:40:59,559
Speaker 1: this is quite scatological, Andre's. As you know, many of

1756
01:40:59,600 --> 01:41:02,920
Speaker 1: our nation wonderful cities were once wonderful sad stuff man

1757
01:41:02,960 --> 01:41:05,680
Speaker 1: Shield's high buck. Yeah. What he's referring to, folks in

1758
01:41:05,720 --> 01:41:07,920
Speaker 1: case you to know, is that now San Francisco has

1759
01:41:08,000 --> 01:41:13,439
Speaker 1: these interactive digital maps of where there is um. I

1760
01:41:13,479 --> 01:41:14,880
Speaker 1: don't know what else to say of them, to say

1761
01:41:14,880 --> 01:41:18,080
Speaker 1: it human poop on the streets because people are living

1762
01:41:18,080 --> 01:41:20,880
Speaker 1: in the streets and guess what, they will as part

1763
01:41:20,920 --> 01:41:25,479
Speaker 1: of their normal biological processes, have to expel waste. That

1764
01:41:25,560 --> 01:41:30,160
Speaker 1: expulsion of waste manifests itself in you know what, and

1765
01:41:30,240 --> 01:41:32,760
Speaker 1: that falls in places all over the street when people

1766
01:41:32,800 --> 01:41:34,920
Speaker 1: are not in fact living at homes and have indoor

1767
01:41:34,960 --> 01:41:38,720
Speaker 1: plumbing and sewage, etc. Etc. And this is a real

1768
01:41:38,760 --> 01:41:42,400
Speaker 1: problem in San Francisco. I've got to tell you all

1769
01:41:42,439 --> 01:41:46,200
Speaker 1: it takes with some of these public these public nuisances

1770
01:41:46,200 --> 01:41:49,280
Speaker 1: in public hazard situations, is one really nasty outbreak of

1771
01:41:49,320 --> 01:41:51,639
Speaker 1: some kind of disease, maybe something we've seen before, maybe

1772
01:41:51,640 --> 01:41:54,439
Speaker 1: something we haven't seen before. And everyone's gonna say, oh

1773
01:41:54,479 --> 01:41:57,040
Speaker 1: my gosh, how could we have allowed people in a

1774
01:41:57,120 --> 01:42:00,559
Speaker 1: dense urban environment to live on the streets out running

1775
01:42:00,560 --> 01:42:04,080
Speaker 1: water and sanitation. And the answer is, well, we all

1776
01:42:04,160 --> 01:42:07,880
Speaker 1: knew it was bad. But the libs are hemia San Francisco,

1777
01:42:08,000 --> 01:42:11,000
Speaker 1: just like people like live their truth, man, like whatever

1778
01:42:11,479 --> 01:42:15,439
Speaker 1: you know, they're ruining San Francisco. San Francisco is turning

1779
01:42:15,439 --> 01:42:17,519
Speaker 1: into like a Latin American country where you have a

1780
01:42:17,640 --> 01:42:20,640
Speaker 1: super elite, wealthy class and then everybody else gets to

1781
01:42:20,680 --> 01:42:24,559
Speaker 1: wallow in the poop on the streets. It's not good.

1782
01:42:24,720 --> 01:42:26,920
Speaker 1: It's not the way it's supposed to be. You know.

1783
01:42:26,960 --> 01:42:30,639
Speaker 1: We should have a society that is much more level

1784
01:42:30,840 --> 01:42:33,679
Speaker 1: than that, and everyone deserves clean streets in this country

1785
01:42:33,680 --> 01:42:39,800
Speaker 1: and Latin American countries that are particularly poor. So next

1786
01:42:39,920 --> 01:42:44,240
Speaker 1: up here, Cindy, no need to read this on air, Okay, Cindy,

1787
01:42:45,080 --> 01:42:48,599
Speaker 1: I will not, Scott hey Buck. In regards to modern

1788
01:42:48,640 --> 01:42:54,680
Speaker 1: beautiful churches, check out Sagrada Familia, the Basilica in Barcelona.

1789
01:42:54,960 --> 01:42:58,320
Speaker 1: Construction started in eighteen eighty two and is scheduled to

1790
01:42:58,320 --> 01:43:01,800
Speaker 1: finish in twenty twenty six. A centnaria of Gaudie the

1791
01:43:01,880 --> 01:43:05,080
Speaker 1: designer chief Architect's death. It's kind of odd looking, but

1792
01:43:05,320 --> 01:43:09,559
Speaker 1: beautiful shields high Scott, all that fancy talk. I have

1793
01:43:09,640 --> 01:43:12,960
Speaker 1: no idea what that really was. But there you have it.

1794
01:43:13,680 --> 01:43:17,519
Speaker 1: There you have it. Let's see what else we have here,

1795
01:43:18,640 --> 01:43:23,400
Speaker 1: Roger right buck, In reference to student loan forgiveness, what

1796
01:43:23,479 --> 01:43:25,759
Speaker 1: about those who were killed in the wars while serving

1797
01:43:25,760 --> 01:43:33,360
Speaker 1: out their service obligation? For ROTC or academy scholarships. What

1798
01:43:33,400 --> 01:43:36,479
Speaker 1: are you asking me, should somebody who was killed have

1799
01:43:36,600 --> 01:43:42,280
Speaker 1: their loans forgiven? Of course that's but you know, this

1800
01:43:42,360 --> 01:43:44,720
Speaker 1: is like saying, well, should people that fight for our

1801
01:43:44,720 --> 01:43:49,080
Speaker 1: country get separate healthcare paid for? Yes, that's a that's

1802
01:43:49,120 --> 01:43:52,400
Speaker 1: an obligation that we, the people of this country have

1803
01:43:52,520 --> 01:43:55,400
Speaker 1: to those who serve in our armed forces. So in

1804
01:43:55,520 --> 01:43:58,840
Speaker 1: terms of those who were killed while serving abroad, yeah, yeah,

1805
01:43:59,040 --> 01:44:01,840
Speaker 1: And I'm actually Roger, you might know more about this

1806
01:44:01,840 --> 01:44:04,400
Speaker 1: than me. My assumption would be, and perhaps it's a

1807
01:44:04,439 --> 01:44:08,280
Speaker 1: wrong assumption, that any debt that you any student loan

1808
01:44:08,360 --> 01:44:09,519
Speaker 1: debt that you have, which is a debt to the

1809
01:44:09,520 --> 01:44:15,320
Speaker 1: federal government, if you are killed while serving or ROTC

1810
01:44:15,520 --> 01:44:19,400
Speaker 1: or academy scholarship, that that would be wiped away right away.

1811
01:44:19,439 --> 01:44:24,400
Speaker 1: But I actually don't know. But I'm all for, you know,

1812
01:44:24,439 --> 01:44:29,559
Speaker 1: the making good on the promise to our soldiers of

1813
01:44:29,720 --> 01:44:31,479
Speaker 1: taking care of them when they're when they're back home,

1814
01:44:31,680 --> 01:44:35,439
Speaker 1: and taking care of them when they're overseas. Let's see here.

1815
