WEBVTT - Buck’s First Thoughts - It's Time To Ban Mask Mandates 0:00:00.440 --> 0:00:03.240 This is Buck's first thoughts, the news you need to 0:00:03.240 --> 0:00:05.840 get through your day in forty five minutes. Make sure 0:00:05.880 --> 0:00:08.520 you subscribe on the iHeart Act or wherever you get 0:00:08.560 --> 0:00:13.560 your podcasts. I understand that there is a desire to 0:00:13.600 --> 0:00:17.000 think that this is all over. I understand that people 0:00:17.239 --> 0:00:20.880 want to celebrate the end of the pandemic, and there's 0:00:20.960 --> 0:00:25.040 certainly cause for a lot of optimism here. But I 0:00:25.160 --> 0:00:28.880 have to tell you all that this thing is not 0:00:28.920 --> 0:00:34.560 only not over, but until we repudiate what has gone 0:00:34.600 --> 0:00:38.360 on here, until we actually win the argument against what 0:00:38.479 --> 0:00:42.120 has been done to this country, the power grab is 0:00:42.240 --> 0:00:46.440 just put on pause. Why do you think they're leaving 0:00:46.560 --> 0:00:48.600 some of these rules in place. Why do you think 0:00:48.600 --> 0:00:53.519 they're engaging in some of these efforts at Soviet style 0:00:53.680 --> 0:00:57.400 rewriting of history so they can bring it all back 0:00:57.720 --> 0:01:01.680 when they decide to think that they didn't like the 0:01:01.760 --> 0:01:04.720 power that they had. You don't think that they're going 0:01:04.800 --> 0:01:08.960 to try to expand upon this for other situations and circumstances. 0:01:09.680 --> 0:01:11.720 We now live in a country where a governor of 0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:15.039 a state can effectively say, I think there's a really 0:01:15.120 --> 0:01:20.600 important reason to restrict your movement, to restrict your breathing 0:01:21.000 --> 0:01:25.360 to restrict your life, and you have to just say sir, 0:01:25.600 --> 0:01:27.960 yes sir, or ma'am, yes, ma'am, and that's the end 0:01:27.959 --> 0:01:31.440 of it. I'm sorry, that's not America. I'm not letting 0:01:31.480 --> 0:01:35.560 this thing go. We have a fight to win now 0:01:35.600 --> 0:01:38.880 over what has happened, what they did to us, what 0:01:38.959 --> 0:01:42.920 was necessary, what wasn't necessary, what worked, and what failed. 0:01:43.600 --> 0:01:45.480 We don't just go forward and let all of this 0:01:45.640 --> 0:01:49.160 pass because it's not the end of it. It's not 0:01:49.200 --> 0:01:51.279 the last time. They're not even getting rid of everything. 0:01:51.360 --> 0:01:54.240 Is you know it? You currently have to still wear 0:01:54.280 --> 0:01:56.760 a mask even if you're vaccinated on a plane. Why 0:01:57.520 --> 0:02:01.200 our plane is a big note of transmission. Are people 0:02:01.200 --> 0:02:04.400 getting them on planes? Vaccinated? People getting COVID on planes? Really? 0:02:04.520 --> 0:02:08.400 Is that what's happening? I don't think so. This is absurd. 0:02:08.880 --> 0:02:12.960 But there's also a lot of confusion out there because 0:02:13.040 --> 0:02:18.640 finally they didn't keep pushing in the lockdown extreme direction, 0:02:19.320 --> 0:02:21.560 and that means that people are thinking about all the 0:02:21.600 --> 0:02:27.680 different arbitrary aspects of this. Here is the single worst 0:02:27.800 --> 0:02:32.760 little lab coat tyrant the Health Policies Stalinist in chief 0:02:33.400 --> 0:02:38.359 doctor Anthony Fauci about the confusion on the mass policies. 0:02:38.400 --> 0:02:41.639 Play three. The science that evolved over the last few 0:02:41.639 --> 0:02:44.920 weeks that trompted the CDC to make the recommendations that 0:02:44.919 --> 0:02:48.960 people who are vaccinated should feel safe and be able 0:02:49.000 --> 0:02:53.519 to go indoors and outdoors without wearing a mask relates 0:02:53.560 --> 0:02:57.400 to the evidence of how effective these vaccines are not 0:02:57.520 --> 0:03:00.880 only in protecting you against infection, but even if you 0:03:00.960 --> 0:03:04.400 have a breakthrough infection, the chances of your transmitting it 0:03:04.480 --> 0:03:08.600 to someone else is extremely low, very very low. The 0:03:08.639 --> 0:03:10.880 problem in the issue is that we don't have any 0:03:10.880 --> 0:03:14.359 way of knowing who is vaccinated and who's not vaccinated. 0:03:14.680 --> 0:03:17.480 And I think that's where the confusion arises, because there 0:03:17.480 --> 0:03:21.120 are some establishments who are saying, well, I'm going to 0:03:21.160 --> 0:03:23.720 have people coming into my establishing, my store, or what 0:03:23.800 --> 0:03:26.440 have you. Some are going to be vaccinated and some 0:03:26.560 --> 0:03:28.840 are not. I'm not going to know the difference. Some 0:03:29.000 --> 0:03:31.920 might be infected and might actually have a risk of 0:03:32.000 --> 0:03:36.840 infecting someone else. And under those circumstances, it's perfectly reasonable 0:03:36.880 --> 0:03:40.480 and understandable for the owner of that establishment to say, 0:03:40.680 --> 0:03:42.920 you know, we're going to keep the mask mandate up. 0:03:43.240 --> 0:03:45.680 And that's what we're seeing. And I think that's causing 0:03:45.720 --> 0:03:49.960 the confusion because some are maintaining a mask mandate and 0:03:50.000 --> 0:03:53.960 others are not. You should pressure any place that does 0:03:54.040 --> 0:03:57.120 not anymore have the force of law on its side 0:03:57.640 --> 0:04:01.160 to drop their mask mandate. This is important. You should 0:04:01.160 --> 0:04:03.440 go in. I'm I'm going to as of tomorrow Wednesday, 0:04:03.520 --> 0:04:05.680 I'm going to walk into places without a mask on, 0:04:06.800 --> 0:04:09.000 and I'm going to force them to say put your 0:04:09.040 --> 0:04:12.400 mask on, sir. And I'm gonna say why. There's no law, 0:04:12.560 --> 0:04:15.760 there's no rule. So you're just now an establishment that 0:04:15.880 --> 0:04:19.080 wants to force people to wear masks. This is what 0:04:19.120 --> 0:04:21.120 I mean by the fight is not over. You're going 0:04:21.200 --> 0:04:23.880 to see plenty of places now. I know if you 0:04:24.000 --> 0:04:27.159 live God bless, if you live in a red state 0:04:27.240 --> 0:04:29.240 or a red part of a state where there are 0:04:29.320 --> 0:04:32.440 sane human beings who have not all been brainwashed by 0:04:32.480 --> 0:04:37.479 CNN or are not perma maskers forever maskers. You're like, Buck, 0:04:37.520 --> 0:04:41.800 it's your problem, buddy, Well, yes, and no, it's my problem. 0:04:41.839 --> 0:04:44.599 It's the problem of of you know, New York City 0:04:45.040 --> 0:04:48.880 and Denver and Los Angeles and Portland, and you know 0:04:48.920 --> 0:04:51.520 cities that are going to have this for quite some time. Chicago, 0:04:51.520 --> 0:04:53.000 although actually I got a check and see what the 0:04:53.080 --> 0:04:59.560 latest on their mandate is. It's also on federal federal property. 0:04:59.600 --> 0:05:01.839 It's going to be on airplanes, it's going to be 0:05:01.920 --> 0:05:05.960 on anything that's crossing state lines, buses, trains, and they 0:05:05.960 --> 0:05:09.479 may just leave that. Look at how absurd airlines are 0:05:09.520 --> 0:05:11.440 and have been all along with their rules, not just 0:05:11.480 --> 0:05:13.880 on COVID, just in general. You think that all of 0:05:13.920 --> 0:05:16.080 a sudden they're going to become reasonable on this issue. 0:05:16.520 --> 0:05:18.120 You think that all of a sudden the airlines are 0:05:18.160 --> 0:05:21.360 going to be fair minded about how long they keep 0:05:21.360 --> 0:05:24.640 in place the stupid where a mask rule that they've 0:05:24.680 --> 0:05:27.760 had this whole time. It's not over. I mean, I 0:05:28.120 --> 0:05:32.400 understand that we all want to exhale literally and breathe 0:05:32.440 --> 0:05:35.279 free fresh air. But there are going to be places 0:05:35.279 --> 0:05:37.840 and people that try to keep this thing going, and 0:05:37.880 --> 0:05:41.960 it is incumbent upon all of us to actually push back. Now, 0:05:42.040 --> 0:05:45.039 we had the force of the state against us, including 0:05:45.120 --> 0:05:47.359 unto the Trump administration. Trump could have been stronger on 0:05:47.400 --> 0:05:51.200 this issue. That's just reality. Everybody was bending the knee. Now. 0:05:51.240 --> 0:05:53.760 It's also fair to say that we didn't have all 0:05:53.800 --> 0:05:55.880 the data, We didn't have the winter that we just 0:05:55.920 --> 0:05:59.280 went through, and that it wasn't as clear that mandates 0:05:59.279 --> 0:06:01.480 don't do a damn thing. Now it's quite clear. So 0:06:01.640 --> 0:06:04.359 to be fair to the Trump administration, it was earlier on. 0:06:04.520 --> 0:06:09.479 And you know, I'm trying to assess this not as 0:06:09.600 --> 0:06:13.679 an unfair money Morning quarterback, but sometimes that's going to happen. 0:06:14.880 --> 0:06:17.400 But get ready for this. There's going to be a 0:06:17.440 --> 0:06:19.920 push in some places to get vaccine passports, but as 0:06:19.960 --> 0:06:23.280 long as we have a non compliance and pushback against it, 0:06:23.279 --> 0:06:25.760 it won't happen. And yes, the fact of the matter 0:06:25.839 --> 0:06:27.480 is that people are just going to have to go 0:06:27.560 --> 0:06:30.240 back to living in a society. They're gonna have to 0:06:30.279 --> 0:06:33.159 go back to living in a world where it is 0:06:33.240 --> 0:06:36.200 possible that somebody will have a respiratory infection that you 0:06:36.200 --> 0:06:39.159 can catch and that the state cannot protect you from that, 0:06:39.279 --> 0:06:41.200 because as we see from what we've been through the 0:06:41.279 --> 0:06:43.640 last fifteen months, the state has never been able to 0:06:43.680 --> 0:06:47.760 protect you from that. You know, I've been accusing Fauci 0:06:47.800 --> 0:06:53.120 along here of not listening to the science. The science. 0:06:53.720 --> 0:06:56.360 You know, you gotta just or else you get a 0:06:56.400 --> 0:06:59.680 plateau and then a surge, So you got to listen 0:06:59.720 --> 0:07:03.640 to aience. I look at the data and I come 0:07:03.680 --> 0:07:08.279 to a determination about it. Really, it's the best thing 0:07:08.320 --> 0:07:10.720 for you for me to just listen to everything I say. 0:07:12.480 --> 0:07:15.400 But found she walks around with a mask on Why? 0:07:15.480 --> 0:07:17.440 In fact, I think it was just yesterday he was 0:07:17.480 --> 0:07:22.000 photographed outdoor sunny day in the DC area at some 0:07:22.240 --> 0:07:25.120 event and he had a big mask on his face outside. 0:07:25.160 --> 0:07:29.600 Why he's vaccinated? What is he doing? Well, here you go, 0:07:29.760 --> 0:07:32.400 he actually has to admit it. Now, play four. How 0:07:32.440 --> 0:07:34.600 has it changed what you do? How has it changed 0:07:34.600 --> 0:07:38.080 your mask wearing practices? Well, you know, George, I'm obviously 0:07:38.680 --> 0:07:42.040 careful because I mean, I'm a physician and a healthcare provider. 0:07:42.200 --> 0:07:46.920 I am now much more comfortable in people seeing me 0:07:47.080 --> 0:07:51.200 indoors without a mask. I mean, before the CDC made 0:07:51.280 --> 0:07:54.280 the recommendation change, I didn't want to look like I 0:07:54.320 --> 0:07:57.960 was giving mixed signals. But being a fully vaccinated person, 0:07:58.480 --> 0:08:02.440 the chances of my being infected in an indoor setting 0:08:02.600 --> 0:08:06.440 is extremely low. And that's the reason why an indoor settings. 0:08:06.520 --> 0:08:10.320 Now I feel comfortable about not wearing a mask because 0:08:10.360 --> 0:08:15.880 I'm I'm fully vaccinated. Okay, what about the outdoor setting 0:08:15.880 --> 0:08:19.680 where you were in a mask yesterday? It's a security blanket, folks. 0:08:19.720 --> 0:08:24.200 We can all see it. It's clear, we know, we understand, 0:08:25.840 --> 0:08:28.320 and then there's the issue. This is why I'm sorry, 0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:31.200 I understand, what what am I gonna? I'll talk to 0:08:31.200 --> 0:08:32.920 you about some of the other news stories today that 0:08:32.960 --> 0:08:34.960 are out there, But what's more important than this. If 0:08:34.960 --> 0:08:38.600 you have children, your children are still expected to run 0:08:38.679 --> 0:08:41.959 around with a mask on. Your children are still expected 0:08:42.000 --> 0:08:44.000 to be in the sun this summer at camp thanks 0:08:44.040 --> 0:08:47.720 to the CDC in ninety five degree heat, running around 0:08:48.200 --> 0:08:51.200 with a stupid mask on their faces. So we're not 0:08:51.280 --> 0:08:54.000 done here. I understand, we all want to be done, 0:08:54.320 --> 0:09:00.400 but the lunatic mask lockdowners need to Their ideas need 0:09:00.440 --> 0:09:06.480 to be defeated and eliminated. Their hysteria, their neuroses has 0:09:06.520 --> 0:09:09.920 to be overcome. Because you've got people like Fauci advocating 0:09:09.960 --> 0:09:14.319 for it is effectively mass child abuse. Play two, what's 0:09:14.360 --> 0:09:17.559 your message to parents this morning? These kids are unvaccinated? Well, 0:09:17.600 --> 0:09:20.200 the same as Sephanie just mentioned, and that is that 0:09:20.360 --> 0:09:24.600 the CDC recommendations still maintain that for children who are 0:09:24.600 --> 0:09:28.880 not vaccinated. Obviously most children are not twelve to fifteen 0:09:28.880 --> 0:09:32.360 are getting vaccinated. That indoors, they should still wear masks 0:09:32.400 --> 0:09:35.800 and that's the CDC recommendation. Will that change as we 0:09:35.880 --> 0:09:37.840 get more and more information, as we get more and 0:09:37.840 --> 0:09:41.080 more people vaccinated. Certainly we have to keep up with 0:09:41.240 --> 0:09:45.080 the evolving situation. George, We're not going to have kids 0:09:45.280 --> 0:09:48.280 at that age vaccinated for at least several months as 0:09:48.280 --> 0:09:51.000 we get towards the end of this year, in the 0:09:51.040 --> 0:09:56.920 beginning of next year, an old Democrat bureaucrat jerk advocating 0:09:57.040 --> 0:10:01.800 for supporting defending MA child abuse because that's what masking 0:10:01.880 --> 0:10:05.000 up children who are not at risk from this disease 0:10:05.320 --> 0:10:08.640 and do not effectively spread this disease. That's what it is. 0:10:09.840 --> 0:10:12.560 So as I've been telling you, we're not done, not 0:10:12.679 --> 0:10:17.600 even close, well okay close, but we're not done, and 0:10:17.960 --> 0:10:20.720 there's a lot of fighting left to do here or else. 0:10:21.200 --> 0:10:24.280 Not only will it be the Soviet style rewriting of history, 0:10:24.559 --> 0:10:27.400 but there will also be an effort to bring all 0:10:27.440 --> 0:10:31.040 of this back. I hear everything you're saying, and I 0:10:31.200 --> 0:10:34.960 do think though, there needs to be some clarity that 0:10:35.000 --> 0:10:37.280 there are some pockets of the country that may not 0:10:37.400 --> 0:10:41.760 be ready. I'm here in Washington in many ways, I'm 0:10:41.800 --> 0:10:44.560 here doing know your value interviews, but I am working 0:10:44.559 --> 0:10:46.760 with a team here and there was one person on 0:10:46.800 --> 0:10:49.840 the team who is not vaccinated. I'm wearing a mask 0:10:49.880 --> 0:10:53.160 around that person. You know. It is really if you 0:10:53.200 --> 0:10:55.839 want to follow the science, then there are times you 0:10:55.920 --> 0:10:58.080 need to still wear the mask. And that's where I 0:10:58.080 --> 0:11:00.640 think it gets really confusing as we try and move 0:11:00.720 --> 0:11:03.760 forward as a country and put this pandemic behind us. 0:11:03.800 --> 0:11:07.680 The other thing is this pandemic is not behind us globally, 0:11:08.280 --> 0:11:11.200 and that means that we could run into problems again. 0:11:11.400 --> 0:11:13.880 You never know. If you're looking at the science and 0:11:13.920 --> 0:11:18.000 you're looking at breakthrough cases and you're looking at other strains, 0:11:18.440 --> 0:11:23.040 it's not completely behind us. Doctor Meeka is a moron, 0:11:23.360 --> 0:11:27.120 But that's not a surprise to you. This is the 0:11:27.160 --> 0:11:30.360 problem though people get there. They get their news and 0:11:30.480 --> 0:11:35.520 information from people like Mika Prazynski, who is essentially a 0:11:37.840 --> 0:11:41.160 you know, model with a famous last name. That's that's 0:11:41.480 --> 0:11:45.160 really the basis that the origins of her credentials here 0:11:45.640 --> 0:11:48.360 to talk about anything, never mind to talk about science, 0:11:48.559 --> 0:11:51.920 and this this notion that there could be breakthrough k 0:11:52.160 --> 0:11:54.400 We've been through all this, No, no enough. If she 0:11:54.520 --> 0:11:58.360 if she is vaccinated, as she clearly is, she's wearing 0:11:58.360 --> 0:12:01.080 a mask around one person that she knows who's not vaccinated. 0:12:01.559 --> 0:12:05.439 Does she understand what the statistical reality is here of 0:12:05.480 --> 0:12:10.160 being over ninety percent protected from infection yourself and also 0:12:10.360 --> 0:12:14.560 this other person being at a viral load level and 0:12:14.679 --> 0:12:18.079 in close contact long enough to infect her. I mean, 0:12:18.280 --> 0:12:21.920 you're starting to just see how crazy folks have become 0:12:21.960 --> 0:12:24.040 over this. But they've been like this all along. They've 0:12:24.040 --> 0:12:28.480 been completely unreasonable. They didn't come down hard in the 0:12:28.600 --> 0:12:31.240 corporate press on Gavin Newsom when he shut down outdoor 0:12:31.240 --> 0:12:35.120 dining in California. They didn't come down hard on the left, 0:12:35.120 --> 0:12:38.960 the Democrats, certainly on Cuomo, the five million dollar man. 0:12:39.120 --> 0:12:42.680 By the way, go to Cuomo got a five million 0:12:42.679 --> 0:12:44.560 dollar book deal. What do I mean by five million? 0:12:44.600 --> 0:12:56.559 Not one million, not two million, but three million? Oh okay, no, 0:12:56.840 --> 0:12:59.920 five million, actually five million. I thought it was initially 0:13:00.000 --> 0:13:02.480 three million. It's five million dollars for a book that 0:13:02.720 --> 0:13:05.240 almost no one will read and no one cares about. 0:13:05.320 --> 0:13:08.480 But why do publishers do this. It's a great way 0:13:08.480 --> 0:13:10.480 to pay off the people running states like New York, 0:13:11.320 --> 0:13:13.920 which really matters. What do you think Most of the 0:13:13.920 --> 0:13:18.160 major publishers are based New York City. Their offices are 0:13:18.160 --> 0:13:19.800 not far from where I'm doing this show right now, 0:13:19.880 --> 0:13:23.559 and go see them. They have big midtown towers in Manhattan, 0:13:24.320 --> 0:13:26.680 and they have a way of funneling millions of dollars 0:13:26.679 --> 0:13:29.880 to a guy who was the worst when it came 0:13:29.920 --> 0:13:32.520 to the pandemic. Actually, Producer Mark, do we have speaking 0:13:32.520 --> 0:13:35.640 of Morning Joe? Now they're willing to say, oh, Cuomo 0:13:35.679 --> 0:13:38.040 was not was not so good after all? Play that 0:13:38.600 --> 0:13:42.600 there's a lot of money, I mean for a public servant, 0:13:42.679 --> 0:13:46.480 and don't I don't know that things have worked out 0:13:46.559 --> 0:13:50.439 quite so well. He's under an investigation right now on 0:13:51.240 --> 0:13:55.160 whether they cooked the books when it came to nursing 0:13:55.160 --> 0:13:59.400 home deaths. And when I say, I don't know, that's me. 0:14:00.120 --> 0:14:05.440 That's what the kids call these days understatement. That's crazy money. 0:14:06.000 --> 0:14:08.960 It's crazy money for anyone. And we asked him in 0:14:09.000 --> 0:14:12.040 real time whenever that book came out last year, when 0:14:12.080 --> 0:14:14.000 he came on the show, why on God's Earth you 0:14:14.040 --> 0:14:17.480 would write a celebratory book about your leadership while you're 0:14:17.520 --> 0:14:20.080 still right in the middle of the crisis. And it 0:14:20.120 --> 0:14:21.880 has not worked out well for him, As you said, 0:14:21.960 --> 0:14:25.800 the initial decision two marches ago to send patients back 0:14:25.840 --> 0:14:29.479 into nursing homes, then covering up the number of deaths 0:14:29.520 --> 0:14:32.000 that were inside those nursing homes. There's also, of course, 0:14:32.040 --> 0:14:36.280 the sexual harassment investigation at his time as governor. And 0:14:36.360 --> 0:14:38.480 yet I don't know how in good faith you could 0:14:38.520 --> 0:14:42.560 accept the five million dollars for a book about your 0:14:42.640 --> 0:14:45.560 leadership in a crisis when your state, the state of 0:14:45.600 --> 0:14:47.560 New York, not all through his fault, but it's a 0:14:47.560 --> 0:14:50.720 truth had it as bad or worse than anybody else 0:14:50.760 --> 0:14:53.320 in the country. And the leadership in many cases, as 0:14:53.320 --> 0:14:57.120 these investigations are showing, and these journalism has shown, has 0:14:57.160 --> 0:15:00.800 been frankly terrible and deadly in many cases. You know, 0:15:01.640 --> 0:15:05.320 Morning Joe was a show that was a big proponent 0:15:05.480 --> 0:15:07.600 of and for the New York and DC elites that 0:15:07.640 --> 0:15:10.040 are the Morning Joe audience has never been a big audience, 0:15:10.080 --> 0:15:13.280 but it's very important hedge fund managers and politicians that 0:15:13.320 --> 0:15:16.160 watched the show. That's what we're always told in the media. 0:15:16.840 --> 0:15:20.480 They were big proponents of Cuomo. Do you remember Cuomo sexuals. 0:15:20.520 --> 0:15:22.560 That was a term that became popularized for a while 0:15:22.600 --> 0:15:25.160 because of how sexy Cuomo was during his press conferences. 0:15:25.720 --> 0:15:30.680 Do you remember the various politicos, writers, authors, pundits who 0:15:30.720 --> 0:15:33.720 were saying that Cuomo made them all feel so safe, 0:15:34.600 --> 0:15:38.200 made them all feel so safe. In the early days, 0:15:38.240 --> 0:15:42.440 before we knew anything about this, even I was thinking, well, 0:15:42.520 --> 0:15:45.240 he's not being overly political. I guess that's, you know, 0:15:45.280 --> 0:15:48.040 a good thing in the early days when he was 0:15:48.080 --> 0:15:50.800 talking about the need for ventilators and the administration helping 0:15:50.880 --> 0:15:53.880 and but then he went political, and then we found 0:15:53.880 --> 0:15:55.760 out he lied, and we found out about the nursing 0:15:55.760 --> 0:15:59.080 Home Order, we found out about all the disasters. And 0:15:59.160 --> 0:16:00.960 yet there were still people covering for him. There are 0:16:00.960 --> 0:16:03.200 still people that were saying, oh no, let's wait and see. 0:16:03.920 --> 0:16:06.960 Cromo was the worst governor in America during a time 0:16:07.000 --> 0:16:10.040 of real trial, and he was rewarded for it. Why 0:16:10.120 --> 0:16:13.800 because he's a part of the Democrat system, and they 0:16:13.880 --> 0:16:15.760 reward and take care of their own. As I have 0:16:15.760 --> 0:16:17.880 always told you, it's one of the big advantages that 0:16:17.960 --> 0:16:22.680 Democrats have the apparatus of the left. Make sure that 0:16:22.760 --> 0:16:26.920 they're important fighters, that they're political assassins, that the people 0:16:26.920 --> 0:16:30.040 that do their dirty work they always get another job, 0:16:30.120 --> 0:16:33.120 they always get a payoff, they're always taken care of. 0:16:33.320 --> 0:16:35.600 They're like mafia hitman who go to prison and their 0:16:35.600 --> 0:16:38.000 family is you know, taken care of by the don 0:16:38.360 --> 0:16:41.800 that's the Democrat Party. On the right, we get people 0:16:41.840 --> 0:16:44.840 that get crushed for doing nothing, and then it's just yeah, 0:16:44.880 --> 0:16:47.360 you know, go sell real estate in Montana, see you later. 0:16:47.680 --> 0:16:50.000 You know, good luck. That's what ends up happening. It's 0:16:50.000 --> 0:16:52.200 one of the one of the reasons why we lose, folks. 0:16:52.880 --> 0:16:55.280 I'm gonna I like to speak about that with you, honestly. Now, 0:16:55.480 --> 0:16:59.800 Why does the right lose on issue after issue? Why 0:16:59.840 --> 0:17:03.840 do we lose control of institutions? Why? Why have corporations 0:17:03.880 --> 0:17:06.520 gone woke? Why can't you send your kids to school 0:17:06.560 --> 0:17:09.520 about being indoctrinated with critical race theory? Why are all 0:17:09.640 --> 0:17:13.840 elite universities in the country run by left dis loons? Now? 0:17:15.400 --> 0:17:18.440 Because we keep thinking that we're playing a game where 0:17:18.480 --> 0:17:22.360 the objective is neutrality and fair play, and the left 0:17:22.440 --> 0:17:26.520 keeps playing a game where the objective is control and win. Well, 0:17:26.520 --> 0:17:28.440 when you're up against that in the long run, which 0:17:28.480 --> 0:17:32.400 side do you think gets their way more? We can disengage, 0:17:33.119 --> 0:17:35.880 We can all do what I understand the conservative mentality, 0:17:35.920 --> 0:17:38.520 you know, get off the grid, don't even deal with it. 0:17:38.560 --> 0:17:40.800 Buck Well then they're really going to be in control 0:17:40.800 --> 0:17:44.399 of everything. So we have to be honest about this, 0:17:44.520 --> 0:17:48.040 and we have to also see in what ways do 0:17:48.119 --> 0:17:53.280 we create an ecosystem for political victory by supporting people 0:17:53.320 --> 0:17:56.720 who are important to our cause and doing so in 0:17:56.720 --> 0:17:59.359 every way that we can, because the left absolutely does that. 0:18:00.080 --> 0:18:02.880 Look at Quomo with his five million dollar book deal. 0:18:02.960 --> 0:18:04.359 Do you know how many books you would have to 0:18:04.400 --> 0:18:07.359 sell to earn out that advance? Think about that. Do 0:18:07.359 --> 0:18:09.800 you think people are buying that Quomo book? I don't 0:18:09.840 --> 0:18:14.440 think so important to share your patriotism and show your 0:18:14.560 --> 0:18:16.840 love of country these days, and I think that one 0:18:16.840 --> 0:18:19.240 of the best ways you can do it is by 0:18:19.280 --> 0:18:24.080 displaying a beautiful American flag. Not all flags are the same. 0:18:24.160 --> 0:18:26.679 Sometimes they get all twisted, they can get torn up 0:18:26.720 --> 0:18:29.440 if they're not high quality made from the right materials. 0:18:29.440 --> 0:18:31.640 And you don't want a flag that gets wrapped around 0:18:31.680 --> 0:18:33.800 the pole and people can't see it, and you don't 0:18:33.840 --> 0:18:36.040 want to be dealing with that. So I want you 0:18:36.280 --> 0:18:40.600 to try Allegiance Flag Supply. Allegiance Flag Supply is an 0:18:40.640 --> 0:18:43.840 all American company that makes American flags the way they're 0:18:43.840 --> 0:18:46.760 meant to be, bright, beautiful, the red, white, and blue, 0:18:47.160 --> 0:18:50.320 and they don't shred, they don't tear. They're made from 0:18:50.560 --> 0:18:54.439 very durable fiber, and they also don't get wrapped around 0:18:54.520 --> 0:18:58.080 the pole, so they'll display beautifully. We've got Memorial Day 0:18:58.119 --> 0:19:00.879 coming up, We've got the Independence Day Holliday. Now is 0:19:00.920 --> 0:19:03.880 a great time to get an American flag and get 0:19:03.880 --> 0:19:07.280 it from a company that's all based here in the USA. 0:19:07.560 --> 0:19:10.040 The flags are made in the US, and in fact, 0:19:10.240 --> 0:19:14.680 there are seamstresses that are specifically used by Allegiance Flag 0:19:14.720 --> 0:19:17.119 Supply because they're based here in the States instead of 0:19:17.359 --> 0:19:20.920 letting this work be done overseas.

We 0:20:08.160 --> 0:20:12.000 have to reopen with a cautious eye. But we have 0:20:12.080 --> 0:20:14.040 to get back to life, and we have to get 0:20:14.119 --> 0:20:17.800 back to life and living, and we have to do 0:20:17.880 --> 0:20:20.320 it the way New Yorkers do it. We have to 0:20:20.359 --> 0:20:24.360 do it quickly and robustly effective. This Wednesday, we're going 0:20:24.400 --> 0:20:28.879 to adopt the CDC's new guidance and regulations on masks 0:20:28.920 --> 0:20:34.160 and social distancing for vaccinated people. By the CDC guidance 0:20:34.200 --> 0:20:37.800 and you know, compromise people and vaccinated people should continue 0:20:37.800 --> 0:20:41.040 to wear a mask in social distance, but if you 0:20:41.080 --> 0:20:47.639 are vaccinated, you are safe. No masks, no social distancing. 0:20:48.080 --> 0:20:51.080 We're also going to follow the CDC's guidelines that you 0:20:51.119 --> 0:20:54.200 will still need to wear a mask on public transportation, 0:20:54.280 --> 0:21:00.000 the subways, the buses, nursing homes, homeless shelters, correctional facilities, schools, 0:20:59.800 --> 0:21:07.720 and healthcare facilities. Why are we having this back and forth? Still, 0:21:07.760 --> 0:21:09.679 if you're vaccinated, you're safe, but then there are all 0:21:09.720 --> 0:21:15.840 these places where you're not safe like schools. Why is 0:21:15.880 --> 0:21:20.119 that the case? What is the basis for this? Has 0:21:20.160 --> 0:21:21.560 there been a lot of spread in these places? You 0:21:21.560 --> 0:21:23.960 remember how they shut down restaurants in New York City, 0:21:24.320 --> 0:21:26.160 And this is true in many cities across the country, 0:21:26.160 --> 0:21:27.560 but New York is where I am, so it's a 0:21:27.600 --> 0:21:30.399 city I know the most about well in terms of everything, 0:21:30.400 --> 0:21:35.760 but certainly in terms of COVID policy. Why was there 0:21:35.840 --> 0:21:37.520 not a lot of focus but on the fact that 0:21:37.520 --> 0:21:40.920 they only thought one percent, which is within the margin 0:21:40.920 --> 0:21:43.560 of error, one percent of actual transmission of COVID was 0:21:43.600 --> 0:21:47.600 happening in restaurants, period, but they shut them down for 0:21:47.640 --> 0:21:49.840 months and months and months. You know, you have to 0:21:49.880 --> 0:21:52.800 wonder does that one percent get eliminated even from the 0:21:52.800 --> 0:21:54.880 COVID total, or is it does it just move? Does 0:21:54.880 --> 0:21:58.000 that transmission just move somewhere else in the home, in 0:21:58.080 --> 0:22:02.200 close quarters somewhere. But Cuomo was saying that they'll get 0:22:02.280 --> 0:22:05.199 rid of this by tomorrow in New York. What's fascinating 0:22:05.280 --> 0:22:08.080 is that, as expected, there are some states that are 0:22:08.119 --> 0:22:12.280 just going to be more intransigent on this, and they 0:22:12.359 --> 0:22:14.920 certainly you see see I think there's a big part 0:22:14.920 --> 0:22:19.560 of this where they want you to be grateful, because 0:22:19.640 --> 0:22:24.240 if you have to show gratitude for getting back your liberty, 0:22:24.680 --> 0:22:29.600 your basic freedom, then you look ungrateful the moment you say, 0:22:29.720 --> 0:22:33.520 you know, hold on a second, was it really necessary 0:22:33.560 --> 0:22:35.720 to do all this stuff you guys did do us? 0:22:36.280 --> 0:22:38.760 Should it really have happened this way? Did you have 0:22:38.840 --> 0:22:43.239 to do these things? You see, they want you to 0:22:43.320 --> 0:22:46.639 be thanking them for this, because then it makes it 0:22:46.800 --> 0:22:49.560 very difficult. It makes it awkward to turn around and say, 0:22:49.960 --> 0:22:52.639 what the heck did you idiots do to us? What 0:22:52.800 --> 0:22:56.200 did you put us through for? What? What benefit did 0:22:56.200 --> 0:22:58.760 we get out of this? Oh? Where's the data? Where's 0:22:58.760 --> 0:23:00.879 the science on that one? See? Now there's going to 0:23:00.960 --> 0:23:02.560
