WEBVTT - Cuomo's Covid Victim Blaming 0:00:03.320 --> 0:00:15.240 You are entering the freedom. Huge more lockdowns on the 0:00:15.280 --> 0:00:17.680 way across the country. We're bringing up to speed on 0:00:17.760 --> 0:00:21.680 where and how severe. Plus updates on the Trump election, fight, 0:00:22.120 --> 0:00:28.200 threats against Michigan election officials and Governor Cuomo blames COVID victims, 0:00:28.840 --> 0:00:34.920 Buck Sextons, decoding the news and disseminating information with actionable intelligence. 0:00:37.040 --> 0:00:41.440 Make no mistake American, Great, Great American Again. This is 0:00:41.479 --> 0:00:46.840 the Buck Sexton Show, Puma CIA analysts. I can speak 0:00:46.880 --> 0:00:49.479 to three hours without a phone call. Try doing that sometime. 0:00:52.040 --> 0:00:56.400 If I told you that twelve months ago the Democrats 0:00:56.520 --> 0:01:01.800 and the media would be cheering on politics for threatening 0:01:01.800 --> 0:01:05.200 to arrest people for the crime of gathering with their 0:01:05.280 --> 0:01:12.040 families on Thanksgiving, you would have thought that if I 0:01:12.040 --> 0:01:15.479 had said that, I was insane, right, If anyone had 0:01:15.520 --> 0:01:17.760 told you that, you would have thought that they were 0:01:17.800 --> 0:01:24.080 completely crazy. But here we are. This is happening right now, 0:01:24.880 --> 0:01:28.080 and now the question becomes, are we going to continue 0:01:28.160 --> 0:01:32.640 to comply or are we going to fight? Now? What 0:01:33.400 --> 0:01:36.919 does fight mean in this context? An excellent question. People 0:01:36.959 --> 0:01:43.160 bring this up. Exercising autonomy and freedom in every way 0:01:43.280 --> 0:01:48.720 you can based upon your own individual circumstance, which takes 0:01:48.760 --> 0:01:53.240 into account your health risk toleration, which takes into account 0:01:53.600 --> 0:01:56.520 where you are in the country. Are there any others 0:01:56.600 --> 0:01:58.480 who think like you? Are you going to be the 0:01:58.520 --> 0:02:01.960 one person in some sea of blue? Because as we know, 0:02:02.040 --> 0:02:06.600 this has become political. This is insane. It never should 0:02:06.600 --> 0:02:10.079 have been, but now it is. You see, opposing mask 0:02:10.200 --> 0:02:15.920 mandates and shutdowns was never about Trump, despite all the 0:02:15.960 --> 0:02:19.080 garbage Pedalty and the American media, you can see, I 0:02:19.120 --> 0:02:22.080 don't care who the president ends up being when it 0:02:22.120 --> 0:02:26.320 comes to lockdowns. I don't want them. I don't support them. 0:02:26.480 --> 0:02:31.120 I don't think the data supports them. I think they're unconstitutional. 0:02:31.440 --> 0:02:36.560 I think it's tyranny. This is going now beyond even 0:02:36.280 --> 0:02:39.920 a deep constitutional argument to just a natural law and 0:02:40.040 --> 0:02:43.000 natural rights argument. I have a right as a human 0:02:43.040 --> 0:02:48.080 being to spend time with my family over a holiday, 0:02:48.560 --> 0:02:51.840 irrespective of whether the government thinks it's good for my health. 0:02:52.440 --> 0:02:55.720 I don't give a crap what the government thinks about it. 0:02:56.480 --> 0:03:03.040 This is about individual decision making. It's about having the agency, 0:03:03.080 --> 0:03:07.560 the free will to live your life as you see fit. 0:03:08.600 --> 0:03:12.560 Remember you're not doing anything in violation of actual law. 0:03:12.760 --> 0:03:16.079 You're not harming anyone. But they pretend that you are. 0:03:17.160 --> 0:03:20.040 They pretend that just because you're out and about it 0:03:20.080 --> 0:03:22.880 means that there's a possibility of risk. But there's always 0:03:22.880 --> 0:03:25.760 a possibility of risk for countless activities that the government 0:03:25.840 --> 0:03:30.919 does not prevent. The government does not threaten to lock 0:03:31.040 --> 0:03:35.560 you up for engaging in those activities. You know, there 0:03:35.600 --> 0:03:39.760 are anti COVID protests in Germany, there have been some 0:03:39.800 --> 0:03:43.840 in Spain, there have been in many European countries. I 0:03:43.880 --> 0:03:46.840 suppose we're going to be told that these are all 0:03:46.880 --> 0:03:50.320 just far right nationalists or some other nonsense in our 0:03:50.360 --> 0:03:52.920 own media. Maybe they're just people that are sick of 0:03:53.040 --> 0:03:57.000 walking around all the time now outside with masks on. 0:03:57.440 --> 0:04:03.320 Wearing masks outside is not scientifically supported. There is no study, 0:04:03.560 --> 0:04:08.360 there is no basis for this. But what you see 0:04:09.120 --> 0:04:13.080 is a constant shifting of what the science says based 0:04:13.160 --> 0:04:18.000 upon the needs of the left wing collectivist consensus. And 0:04:18.120 --> 0:04:22.080 that's what's happening right now. We have the CDC offering 0:04:22.160 --> 0:04:26.440 up guidance to people to avoid travel over Thanksgiving. I 0:04:26.560 --> 0:04:28.159 just want to ask you this. Do you think they're 0:04:28.160 --> 0:04:31.800 going to say, you know, what, good job over Thanksgiving? Guys? Now, 0:04:31.800 --> 0:04:36.200 the cases are really low. No, No, there will be 0:04:36.240 --> 0:04:40.599 more cases. We are entering a period here of upper 0:04:40.600 --> 0:04:44.440 respiratory virus spread, and people that were not infected the 0:04:44.480 --> 0:04:47.040 first go round are going to be at at continued 0:04:47.120 --> 0:04:51.000 risk to get infected this time. This is just the 0:04:51.080 --> 0:04:53.240 reality of what we're facing and what we're dealing with. 0:04:53.960 --> 0:04:56.040 But no matter what you do, remember, and I've been 0:04:56.080 --> 0:04:59.120 telling you this all along, they'll say it's not enough. 0:05:00.240 --> 0:05:05.960 They'll say it's insufficient. The lockdowns, the shutdowns of businesses 0:05:05.960 --> 0:05:09.520 that come along with it, the restrictions on your ability 0:05:09.520 --> 0:05:14.760 to move freely to worship, to engage in religious practice, 0:05:14.839 --> 0:05:16.719 to go to funerals, to go to weddings, to have 0:05:16.839 --> 0:05:19.960 birthday parties. Unless you're Gavin Newsom, then you can go 0:05:20.240 --> 0:05:24.520 with a whole bunch of people, including senior medical bureaucrats 0:05:24.520 --> 0:05:26.479 in the state of California, to have one of the 0:05:26.520 --> 0:05:32.200 fanciest dinners in the United States indoors, the elites have 0:05:32.240 --> 0:05:35.520 no problem with hypocrisy. In fact, hypocrisy feels good behind 0:05:35.560 --> 0:05:37.640 closed doors in places the elites don't really want to 0:05:37.640 --> 0:05:42.480 talk about. Feels good. They like that they can get 0:05:42.480 --> 0:05:45.080 away with this stuff. They like that the rules don't 0:05:45.080 --> 0:05:47.440 really apply to them. While They're going around crushing the 0:05:47.480 --> 0:05:50.559 likes of you and me, and I have to say 0:05:51.279 --> 0:05:55.320 I'm tired of it. I'm sick of so many Americans 0:05:55.360 --> 0:05:59.479 walking around doing what they're told. We should all move 0:05:59.680 --> 0:06:04.280 like a bunch of cows being herded into our pens. 0:06:04.320 --> 0:06:07.960 This is outrageous. I thought this was a country that 0:06:08.440 --> 0:06:12.719 believed in freedom and the risks that come with it. 0:06:12.760 --> 0:06:15.640 But no, we have bureaucrats. We have a system of 0:06:15.720 --> 0:06:19.159 control in place now that's taking all those decisions away 0:06:19.200 --> 0:06:22.440 from you. If you saw where we were where we 0:06:22.480 --> 0:06:24.640 are now, if you could have seen that a year ago, 0:06:24.680 --> 0:06:26.880 I'm telling you, you would have said, never in America 0:06:26.920 --> 0:06:29.599 would that happen. The American people would not go along 0:06:29.640 --> 0:06:34.440 with it. And that's why I say we fight. It's 0:06:34.440 --> 0:06:38.039 time to stop the lockdown madness. Those who want to 0:06:38.080 --> 0:06:43.359 live their lives should non comply however they can, and 0:06:43.400 --> 0:06:46.440 then what's the level beyond that those tasks with enforcement 0:06:46.440 --> 0:06:50.480 of these rules should refuse to do so. Those with 0:06:50.600 --> 0:06:53.120 power who pushed this tyranny should be held to account, 0:06:53.680 --> 0:06:57.600 and those in positions of authority who are trying to 0:06:57.680 --> 0:07:02.080 fight for greater liberty, for greater autonomy for us as individuals. 0:07:03.200 --> 0:07:06.880 For our lives to be up to us, those people 0:07:06.920 --> 0:07:10.800 should be supported with everything we can, with everything we've got. 0:07:12.080 --> 0:07:14.680 There's no one answer to how you fight back against this. 0:07:16.040 --> 0:07:18.840 It may be that you just refuse to mask up 0:07:18.840 --> 0:07:22.920 outside because it's idiotic, because there's no basis for it. 0:07:23.120 --> 0:07:26.880 Because they even told us that for months when the 0:07:26.920 --> 0:07:31.560 pandemic was raging through this country late last winter and 0:07:31.600 --> 0:07:34.960 into the spring, you don't need to wear a mask outside. 0:07:35.080 --> 0:07:39.840 That's not supported. The biggest studies that I've been done 0:07:39.840 --> 0:07:41.720 on this say that the risk of transmission outside is 0:07:41.720 --> 0:07:44.680 effectively nothing. So maybe you don't wear a mask outside. 0:07:45.640 --> 0:07:47.800 Some of you perhaps will say I don't want to 0:07:48.080 --> 0:07:49.760 wear a mask inside, but then you're going to run 0:07:49.760 --> 0:07:52.760 a foule of state law. You may find yourself harassed. 0:07:52.800 --> 0:07:58.480 Fights breakout over this, people become violent, that's how unhinged 0:07:58.520 --> 0:08:01.360 they are. There are people across the country right now 0:08:01.600 --> 0:08:03.560 who think they have a right to lay hands on 0:08:03.640 --> 0:08:06.640 you because there's a one in ten thousand chance that 0:08:06.760 --> 0:08:09.120 you may have a respiratory virus. That there is a 0:08:09.160 --> 0:08:11.960 tiny chance that if they're near you for more than 0:08:12.040 --> 0:08:17.320 fifteen minutes indoors, they may contract from you. The reproduction rate, 0:08:17.360 --> 0:08:21.040 the R number that goes along with viruses, even when 0:08:21.040 --> 0:08:22.720 it's at a pandemic. If it's an R of one, 0:08:22.920 --> 0:08:25.040 most people who get this are likely to give it 0:08:25.040 --> 0:08:28.440 to only one other person. So when you really do 0:08:28.480 --> 0:08:32.320 the math, anyone that's threatening violence against you, that lays 0:08:32.360 --> 0:08:34.839 hands on you because you're not wearing a mask is 0:08:34.880 --> 0:08:39.960 acting like a lunatic. But it happens. It happens all 0:08:39.960 --> 0:08:43.680 across the country. People have gotten into fights, There have 0:08:43.760 --> 0:08:47.440 even been people killed because they weren't wearing a mask. 0:08:48.960 --> 0:08:53.920 This is a mass brainwashing that has occurred. They ignore 0:08:53.920 --> 0:08:57.200 the data that they don't like, they dress up and 0:08:57.880 --> 0:09:00.840 inflate the data they do like. And they love this control. 0:09:00.880 --> 0:09:02.400 And we know they want to use it for much 0:09:02.480 --> 0:09:07.760 more than just COVID control. They want to use this 0:09:07.800 --> 0:09:09.560 for human control. They want to tell you what you 0:09:09.600 --> 0:09:12.719 can do, what you think. The same people that are 0:09:12.720 --> 0:09:16.200 pushing the Green New Deal, the same people that want 0:09:16.320 --> 0:09:21.600 socialism and a government that's constantly engaged in social justice 0:09:21.800 --> 0:09:25.520 re engineering of society. You think that they don't view 0:09:25.559 --> 0:09:28.120 this as an opportunity to remake this country and perhaps 0:09:28.200 --> 0:09:31.560 even the world. Of course they do. In fact, I 0:09:31.600 --> 0:09:34.560 bet There's a huge relationship between people who believe climate 0:09:34.679 --> 0:09:38.440 change is an existential threat to humanity who are also 0:09:38.520 --> 0:09:42.679 strong supporters of lockdowns and mask mandates. I'd say, if 0:09:42.679 --> 0:09:45.680 you support one, there's over a ninety percent chance you 0:09:45.679 --> 0:09:49.439 support the other. Probably a ninety nine percent chance. Right, 0:09:49.440 --> 0:09:52.400 If you believe climate change is an existential threat to humanity, 0:09:52.760 --> 0:09:56.160 you're a mask up all the time, indoors, maybe in 0:09:56.160 --> 0:09:58.040 the shower, maybe in bed, when you sleep at night. 0:09:58.200 --> 0:10:00.160 What if a fireman has to break into your home 0:10:00.240 --> 0:10:02.400 during a fire and carry you out, Gotta have that 0:10:02.480 --> 0:10:04.640 mask ready to go. Don't want to give him COVID. 0:10:06.280 --> 0:10:10.080 These people are insane and they think we're the crazy ones. 0:10:10.800 --> 0:10:13.120 I've told you the same thing all along. I act 0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:16.720 the way with COVID that I would during a bad 0:10:16.720 --> 0:10:19.400 flu season. In terms of the precautions, Yeah, if you're six, 0:10:19.400 --> 0:10:22.640 stay away from people. That's always been our custom. And 0:10:22.800 --> 0:10:27.080 when Fauci says abandoning all public health measures, no, I'm 0:10:27.080 --> 0:10:29.360 not about to go to a crowded house party with 0:10:29.400 --> 0:10:32.840 sixty people indoor, shoulder to shoulder. I'm not saying be stupid, 0:10:33.840 --> 0:10:37.040 but could I sit in a restaurant six feet away 0:10:37.080 --> 0:10:39.800 from people and feel like I'm probably gonna be Okay, 0:10:39.920 --> 0:10:43.840 yes I could. Is being shoulder to shoulder at a 0:10:43.840 --> 0:10:46.920 bar maybe not a great idea right now, okay, but 0:10:47.240 --> 0:10:50.920 those are right. Those are based on intelligent risk mitigation 0:10:51.040 --> 0:10:54.720 strategies that we all know exist and are real. And 0:10:54.840 --> 0:10:57.440 it's also a question of individual choice. I'm saying I 0:10:57.480 --> 0:11:00.440 wouldn't do that, but if somebody feels like one, maybe 0:11:00.440 --> 0:11:03.280 they've already had COVID too, they're not particularly concerned about it. 0:11:03.480 --> 0:11:05.720 They should be allowed to live their lives. It should 0:11:05.760 --> 0:11:08.160 be up to business owners if they want to open 0:11:08.200 --> 0:11:10.480 their doors right now, or if they want to go 0:11:10.520 --> 0:11:13.800 to the government for assistance in this period, that should 0:11:13.840 --> 0:11:16.800 also be an option for them. But it shouldn't be 0:11:17.600 --> 0:11:20.920 that everyone has to be shut down and everyone has 0:11:20.960 --> 0:11:24.959 to do whatever these tyrants in charge say. I mean, 0:11:25.000 --> 0:11:29.959 based on what we have had, the removal of choice 0:11:31.000 --> 0:11:34.400 from our lives in a way that's unprecedented, the trampling 0:11:34.400 --> 0:11:36.160 on liberties that has gone on here. We have so 0:11:36.200 --> 0:11:39.920 many people who talk about liberty, you know, and this 0:11:40.000 --> 0:11:42.840 is on our own side too, you know, they're waving 0:11:42.920 --> 0:11:45.720 flags and don't tread on me. And the founding fathers 0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:48.840 we believe in all this stuff. Do you think that 0:11:49.320 --> 0:11:55.160 the generation that was at Bunker Hill and conquered Bridge, 0:11:55.440 --> 0:11:57.800 you think that they would see what's going on right 0:11:57.800 --> 0:11:59.679 now in this country and say, yeah, good job, guys, 0:11:59.720 --> 0:12:04.200 really really carrying the torch of liberty here. Well, everyone hides, 0:12:04.240 --> 0:12:08.600 where's your mask? Where's your mask? No? I think we've 0:12:08.600 --> 0:12:12.160 all seen where that gets us. Do they have any answers? 0:12:13.000 --> 0:12:15.560 Do the mask shamers, the smug I listen to the 0:12:15.600 --> 0:12:18.280 science mask shamers? Do they even try to explain why 0:12:18.360 --> 0:12:21.120 we're having huge surges and cases across the country when 0:12:21.600 --> 0:12:25.280 we have more mask compliance than ever before. That's how 0:12:25.320 --> 0:12:28.720 effective masks are. We're wearing them all over the place, 0:12:29.080 --> 0:12:32.120 worst cases we've ever had, and in fact, the states 0:12:32.120 --> 0:12:34.679 that have had the longest mask mandates and the most 0:12:34.679 --> 0:12:38.160 strict ones are the worst hit by the virus once again. 0:12:39.360 --> 0:12:41.760 But they don't answer those questions. Do they don't? Really 0:12:41.840 --> 0:12:44.760 doesn't really matter to them, because, as I've been telling you, 0:12:44.800 --> 0:12:48.160 this is about something else. The answer to how we 0:12:48.200 --> 0:12:50.600 fight back against this is in every way that you 0:12:50.679 --> 0:12:54.240 can that you choose to. This is about whether you 0:12:54.280 --> 0:12:56.640 get to control your day to day life or the 0:12:56.720 --> 0:13:00.160 state gets to control your day to day life. You 0:13:00.200 --> 0:13:01.800 are going to be particularly brave. You're gonna say I'm 0:13:01.800 --> 0:13:04.160 gonna open my business. I'm going to walk around without 0:13:04.200 --> 0:13:06.400 a mask on. Understand there are consequences to that. You 0:13:06.440 --> 0:13:09.200 may get fined, your business may be shut down. Somebody 0:13:09.280 --> 0:13:11.120 might start a fight with you in the gym because 0:13:11.160 --> 0:13:12.520 you don't want to be on a treadmill with a 0:13:12.559 --> 0:13:15.040 mask on like an idiot. And I understand it. I 0:13:15.080 --> 0:13:18.839 appreciate that. I feel the same way. What everyone right 0:13:18.840 --> 0:13:22.080 now is making their own decisions about how to fight 0:13:22.120 --> 0:13:26.360 back against a movement that at its core is about 0:13:26.440 --> 0:13:33.079 removing your ability to make decisions. So there's there's some 0:13:33.160 --> 0:13:37.559 poetry there. There's some broader meaning in all of this. 0:13:39.160 --> 0:13:42.400 Tell people the truth about what you're seeing happening. Don't 0:13:42.520 --> 0:13:47.160 allow those who claim that they understand more than you 0:13:47.559 --> 0:13:51.200 for no apparent reason, to bully you and silence you 0:13:51.640 --> 0:13:53.320 and make you do things you don't want to do. 0:13:53.840 --> 0:13:56.560 Fight back at your school board to get schools open. 0:13:56.760 --> 0:14:00.239 People who say schools should be closed are idiots. They're wrong. 0:14:00.280 --> 0:14:04.080 We've run the experiment. They were wrong. It's the lazy, 0:14:04.280 --> 0:14:07.440 disgusting teachers unions that are pushing for this stuff in 0:14:07.480 --> 0:14:11.040 major cities we all know it. Fight for schools to 0:14:11.080 --> 0:14:15.199 reopen in your area. Fight for restaurants to stay as 0:14:15.240 --> 0:14:18.719 open as possible fifty percent capacity, you know, seventy five 0:14:18.760 --> 0:14:22.040 percent capacity. Do what you can support those local businesses. 0:14:22.280 --> 0:14:25.400 We all have to band together here. The government's not 0:14:25.440 --> 0:14:27.280 going to pull us through this thing, and the government's 0:14:27.320 --> 0:14:29.320 not going to give us back our freedom. We have 0:14:29.440 --> 0:14:32.400 to find ways to do it ourselves. We have to 0:14:32.440 --> 0:14:35.880 take that freedom back and otherwise we're going to have 0:14:36.200 --> 0:14:40.960 holiday after holiday for months on end here where we're told, sorry, 0:14:41.320 --> 0:14:43.960 you don't get to see your loved ones, you don't 0:14:44.000 --> 0:14:48.920 have the right. I'm sorry. I still think this is America, 0:14:49.000 --> 0:14:51.160 and I'm not willing to give it up to the 0:14:51.200 --> 0:14:54.360 fauci morons of the world. Not willing to do it. 0:14:57.080 --> 0:14:59.880 You're in the freedom hunt. This is the Buck sex 0:15:00.040 --> 0:15:06.480 In Show podcast. There are many states that do have 0:15:06.560 --> 0:15:10.640 mask mandates in place and some that do not. But 0:15:10.720 --> 0:15:13.000 I look at their rate of spread and the fact 0:15:13.120 --> 0:15:15.720 is is that cases are increasing in many of those 0:15:15.720 --> 0:15:18.240 states as well. If you look at Wisconsin, they've had 0:15:18.240 --> 0:15:21.240 a mask mandate since August and they have a higher 0:15:21.320 --> 0:15:23.200 rate of spread than the state of South Dakota. You 0:15:23.200 --> 0:15:26.240 look at Montana, they've had a mask mandate in place 0:15:26.320 --> 0:15:29.880 since July. Both of those states have higher rates of 0:15:29.920 --> 0:15:32.680 spread than the state of South Dakota. When you look 0:15:32.720 --> 0:15:35.400 at Wyoming, it has the fastest spread in the nation. 0:15:36.280 --> 0:15:39.280 And that is the concern that I have as many times, 0:15:40.040 --> 0:15:42.960 I don't want to approach a policy or a mandate 0:15:43.600 --> 0:15:47.040 just looking to make people feel good. I want to 0:15:47.120 --> 0:15:50.160 do good and actually put forward provisions that make a 0:15:50.200 --> 0:15:54.240 difference for families. And these local communities have some flexibility 0:15:54.280 --> 0:15:57.120 today that Sue Falls can make a different decision than 0:15:57.240 --> 0:16:00.320 Rapid City. Rapid City can make a different decision than Lemon, 0:16:00.400 --> 0:16:03.880 South Dakota, Watertowne can make a different decision than Pure 0:16:04.160 --> 0:16:06.760 And that's what some of these local leaders are doing 0:16:06.800 --> 0:16:09.200 in reacting to the people in the community based on 0:16:09.280 --> 0:16:12.160 what they want. Doesn't that seem entirely reasonable to you. 0:16:12.280 --> 0:16:16.360 That's Governor Christy Noum, who I hope has a bigger 0:16:16.400 --> 0:16:19.320 future in the GOP. I think she's a star. I 0:16:19.360 --> 0:16:22.360 think she's what people like to think Nicky Haley is. 0:16:22.400 --> 0:16:25.640 But Nicky Haley is not in terms of the next 0:16:25.760 --> 0:16:31.120 best chance of a GOP female presidential candidate, somebody who 0:16:31.360 --> 0:16:33.720 would do really well in the Midwest, really well in 0:16:33.760 --> 0:16:37.560 the rust belt states. That's what I see. But back 0:16:37.560 --> 0:16:40.520 to what she's saying here, we have a lot of data. 0:16:40.560 --> 0:16:46.400 The data gets ignored. Mask mandates do not work. But 0:16:46.440 --> 0:16:50.000 the problem is the other side claims they're they're unfalsifiable. 0:16:50.720 --> 0:16:52.840 Right the moment that we talk about a mask mandate, 0:16:52.880 --> 0:16:57.760 they say, well, it'd be so much worse unless it'd 0:16:57.800 --> 0:17:02.040 be so much worse unless we had them in place. Well, 0:17:02.040 --> 0:17:05.600 how do we prove that. Shouldn't we be thinking about 0:17:06.240 --> 0:17:08.840 mask mandates in terms that would be obvious to everybody, 0:17:08.880 --> 0:17:11.880 as in, of course these work. Of course these are 0:17:11.960 --> 0:17:15.920 great and they make everything just fine, right, But that's 0:17:16.000 --> 0:17:20.080 not the way that it goes. They won't ever back 0:17:20.160 --> 0:17:22.320 off of this. You think they'll admit to people that 0:17:22.400 --> 0:17:24.359 they put them through all this. You think they'll admit 0:17:24.359 --> 0:17:29.200 to people that that's the reality. They just made mistakes here. 0:17:29.600 --> 0:17:32.440 There were enormous mistakes made in so many other areas 0:17:32.480 --> 0:17:35.800 of the COVID response, But on this one they're claiming 0:17:36.440 --> 0:17:42.120 on this one, they're claiming it's settled science. Right. They 0:17:42.119 --> 0:17:46.160 were putting people on ventilators, which was a terrible idea 0:17:46.240 --> 0:17:48.440 and caused a lot of people to die. That probably 0:17:48.480 --> 0:17:51.600 this is the medical community. Now. Now I'm not blaming anyone, 0:17:51.600 --> 0:17:54.560 but I'm saying there were enormous mistakes made there. We 0:17:54.600 --> 0:17:58.280 don't really ever talk about it. But masks. They won't 0:17:58.280 --> 0:18:03.560 back off of masks they think are sacred somehow. And 0:18:03.720 --> 0:18:06.600 remember it is a symbol. It's about more than just 0:18:06.640 --> 0:18:08.520 that piece of cloth over your face. It has turned 0:18:08.560 --> 0:18:14.560 into will you comply right? You know, don't tread on me. 0:18:15.080 --> 0:18:19.560 It's time for people to start saying, don't mask on me. 0:18:20.240 --> 0:18:24.240 Enough is enough. Thanks for listening to the Bus Sesson 0:18:24.320 --> 0:18:29.080 Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeartRadio app, 0:18:29.280 --> 0:18:32.760 or wherever you get your podcasts. So this is a 0:18:32.760 --> 0:18:35.920 good Thanksgiving to just stay home and stay within your 0:18:35.920 --> 0:18:39.879 bubble or at most you know a small number of 0:18:39.920 --> 0:18:42.600 additional two or three people who you know are also 0:18:43.040 --> 0:18:45.800 taking really good precautions. But this is a good year 0:18:46.359 --> 0:18:48.719 to stay home, and it's a good year for us 0:18:48.760 --> 0:18:50.880 to do it across the US. So maybe we could 0:18:50.920 --> 0:18:54.639 have a better Christmas. There's two hundred and fifty thousand 0:18:54.720 --> 0:18:57.399 dead people. We'd like to limit that further. And the 0:18:57.440 --> 0:18:59.560 other thing I'd like to pick up that the point 0:18:59.600 --> 0:19:02.280 I heard earlier on the show is a single negative 0:19:02.320 --> 0:19:05.800 test is not a pass to say I am fine, 0:19:05.880 --> 0:19:08.359 I can now go do whatever I want, because you 0:19:08.400 --> 0:19:12.000 may well still be infected and incubating. So please be 0:19:12.040 --> 0:19:14.359 cautious of thinking that, well, I got a single negative 0:19:14.400 --> 0:19:17.440 test somewhere and I'm I'm good to go stay home. 0:19:17.640 --> 0:19:20.080 You can't tell Thanksgiving dinner. I mean, you just can't 0:19:20.119 --> 0:19:22.280 test your way to that table. The way you can't 0:19:22.359 --> 0:19:25.159 test your way into Thanksgiving dinner. And we've seen this 0:19:25.200 --> 0:19:27.600 around the president, right. You can't even protect the president 0:19:27.640 --> 0:19:32.920 with a testing strategy. Even tests won't protect you from 0:19:33.840 --> 0:19:36.160 passing it on too relatives, getting it from relatives. They're 0:19:36.160 --> 0:19:38.639 telling you, I thought testing was our way out of this. 0:19:38.760 --> 0:19:43.320 Remember that they always find the negative interpretation, because there's 0:19:43.320 --> 0:19:48.400 no such thing as perfect health security. They always find 0:19:48.400 --> 0:19:50.600 the well, it's possible. Therefore, let's go with the most 0:19:50.600 --> 0:19:55.439 extreme interpretation. People die every year. Tens of thousands of 0:19:55.480 --> 0:19:59.520 people die in America every year from influenza. Nobody ever says, 0:20:00.040 --> 0:20:04.040 and half Thanksgiving, don't open your business wear masks never 0:20:04.080 --> 0:20:07.000 happens now you could say, well, Buck, that's only tens 0:20:07.000 --> 0:20:12.880 of thousands, that's every single year. And I know that 0:20:12.920 --> 0:20:15.520 they've they've made this argument, Oh you're a flu bro 0:20:15.760 --> 0:20:18.520 and there's all this How is this non a valid argument? 0:20:18.520 --> 0:20:22.639 They never even address this. We accept as the cost 0:20:22.680 --> 0:20:25.760 of living in a free society. Anywhere from thirty to 0:20:25.840 --> 0:20:28.560 eighty thousand deaths will occur in the United States every 0:20:28.600 --> 0:20:32.840 year from influenza, okay, And that that doesn't even take 0:20:32.840 --> 0:20:36.159 into account people that during the same respiratory period, a 0:20:36.160 --> 0:20:40.600 respiory illness period, are going to get other viruses that 0:20:40.680 --> 0:20:44.679 might turn into a bacterial pneumonia or in other ways 0:20:44.720 --> 0:20:47.480 that people end up succumbing. You know, we're talking about 0:20:47.520 --> 0:20:51.160 mostly older people who are at risk. Guess we are 0:20:51.200 --> 0:20:53.440 all going to get old and we are all going 0:20:53.480 --> 0:20:57.160 to die. That is our reality as human beings. What's 0:20:57.200 --> 0:20:59.480 open to us in the meantime is what can we 0:20:59.600 --> 0:21:02.760 do between now and then? How much freedom do we have? 0:21:02.920 --> 0:21:07.160 How much joy, how much of a contribution? How worthwhile 0:21:07.280 --> 0:21:12.080 can we make our time here? And these idiots in 0:21:12.119 --> 0:21:16.040 the government, in the public health sector are taking your 0:21:16.160 --> 0:21:20.679 time from you. I have never said if you are worried, 0:21:20.720 --> 0:21:23.000 if you have health conditions, if you think you're at 0:21:23.000 --> 0:21:26.960 a high risk, whatever precautions you want to take, by 0:21:27.040 --> 0:21:29.840 all means, and we should be set up to support 0:21:29.880 --> 0:21:33.040 anybody who feels like they're in that category. They should 0:21:33.080 --> 0:21:36.000 have an ability easily. There's a lot of food delivery 0:21:36.000 --> 0:21:38.040 services and things like that in large cities, but in 0:21:38.080 --> 0:21:40.400 more rural areas, people should be able to bring them 0:21:40.480 --> 0:21:42.880 food in a safe and secure manner. People should able 0:21:42.880 --> 0:21:44.639 to bring them their medicine. I mean, we should have 0:21:44.720 --> 0:21:48.520 this all set up. But me, I'm going into an 0:21:48.560 --> 0:21:51.119 office every day right now. Already. I live in New 0:21:51.160 --> 0:21:55.040 York City. I was riding the subway every day, four 0:21:55.119 --> 0:21:57.280 times a day, believe it or not, during the height 0:21:57.320 --> 0:22:00.639 of the pandemic spread and even after it New York City, 0:22:00.840 --> 0:22:02.440 there were a few weeks there where I was still 0:22:02.520 --> 0:22:05.560 riding the subway every day. So yes, I would live 0:22:05.640 --> 0:22:08.240 my life. And when the virus was really bad, did 0:22:08.240 --> 0:22:10.879 I limit some contact with my parents to try to sure. 0:22:11.720 --> 0:22:16.760 But if everyone in your family feels fine, and now 0:22:16.800 --> 0:22:19.360 they're saying even if you get a COVID test beforehand, 0:22:19.760 --> 0:22:23.760 that's not sufficient. What they're saying is that there's a 0:22:24.320 --> 0:22:27.479 you know, a one in ten thousand chance. Remember, it's 0:22:27.480 --> 0:22:29.000 not a one in ten thousand chance that you're going 0:22:29.040 --> 0:22:31.240 to give COVID to somebody and they die. There's like 0:22:31.240 --> 0:22:33.359 a one in ten thousand chance that you'll get you'll 0:22:33.400 --> 0:22:38.480 get COVID unexpectedly, give it to somebody. That's the first leap, 0:22:38.560 --> 0:22:41.960 and then they have a ninety nine percent chance of 0:22:42.040 --> 0:22:46.040 surviving even if they get it. Are we're all going 0:22:46.080 --> 0:22:48.159 to hide from this now, We're all going to act like, 0:22:48.359 --> 0:22:51.919 remember Thanksgiving, this is a one time occasion we're talking 0:22:51.960 --> 0:22:56.080 about this year. This isn't do it every day. I'm 0:22:56.080 --> 0:22:59.800 not saying gathered together with your whole family every single day. Especially. 0:23:00.040 --> 0:23:02.080 It's all about risk, it's all about what's acceptable. But 0:23:02.119 --> 0:23:04.800 they don't view it that way. No, they want to 0:23:04.840 --> 0:23:08.879 panic you. And it's not just democrats. I mean here, 0:23:08.960 --> 0:23:11.760 Secretary as are you know, the bureaucrats. They don't want 0:23:11.760 --> 0:23:15.480 any heat coming down on them, so they take these positions. 0:23:15.560 --> 0:23:20.560 Here's HHS under Trump as are Play twelve. The safest 0:23:20.560 --> 0:23:23.639 way to celebrate Thanksgiving this year is at home with 0:23:23.680 --> 0:23:27.680 the people you live with, and through virtual celebrations, gathering 0:23:27.680 --> 0:23:30.359 indoors with people who aren't members of your household is 0:23:30.400 --> 0:23:34.800 a higher risk activity for spreading the virus. Please know 0:23:34.880 --> 0:23:36.639 that there is light at the end of the tunnel. 0:23:37.520 --> 0:23:41.040 Because of the sacrifices Americans have made and the hard 0:23:41.080 --> 0:23:43.760 work that so many have done, we will have the 0:23:43.840 --> 0:23:47.080 chance to celebrate holidays much more safely with family and 0:23:47.200 --> 0:23:51.439 friends not so far in the future. You know, the 0:23:51.480 --> 0:23:57.600 safest way to have sex is never have sex. It's true, Yeah, 0:23:57.640 --> 0:23:59.760 you never know, stuff can go wrong. I'm not even 0:23:59.800 --> 0:24:02.360 just talking about you know, people can pass diseases back 0:24:02.359 --> 0:24:05.240 and forth, but you know, you could have a heart attack, 0:24:05.760 --> 0:24:09.680
