He has 4 00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:15,920 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton at his time for The Clay Travis and 5 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,919 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show. We have got loads of stories as 6 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:23,920 Speaker 1: we roll into the week to dive into from Over 7 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:30,280 Speaker 1: the weekend, mask mania continues to spread. Former President Barack 8 00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 1: Obama he doesn't care. He's having a five hundred person 9 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:39,200 Speaker 1: birthday party. The eviction moratorium is expiring. Evidently you don't 10 00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:42,479 Speaker 1: get to stay for free in other people's property forever. 11 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:47,159 Speaker 1: New York City not gonna mandate mass there's a TikTok 12 00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:51,520 Speaker 1: vaccine army. Australia is in the middle of lockdown Hell 13 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:56,320 Speaker 1: and Simone Viles is returning. The US women's soccer team 14 00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:00,320 Speaker 1: has lost, sending many of you joyfully into this streets 15 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:06,640 Speaker 1: to celebrate. And the biggest current Democratic mask hypocrite, I 16 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 1: would say, is Mayor Bowser from Washington, DC, who managed 17 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:15,560 Speaker 1: to officiate a wedding and appear at a several hundred 18 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 1: person post wedding celebration buck Sexton, but she was not 19 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,640 Speaker 1: wearing a mask in violation of her own rules and 20 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 1: becoming the latest democratic politician to have rules for THEE 21 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: but not for rules for you, but not for THEE. 22 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: And there's so much chaos and hypocrisy that continues to 23 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:39,560 Speaker 1: build around the mask mandates. How is your weekend, buck Sexton? 24 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 1: And do you think that things can get any more insane? Oh, 25 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 1: it's gonna get crazier. Everybody's strap in all across the country. 26 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 1: I can assure you, because here's what you have to remember. 27 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 1: There's an inverse relationship between clarity for rational people and 28 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: insanity for the irrational people. As in, we see more data, 29 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: we see more reality, and say, Okay, things are going 30 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 1: to calm down. They actually get more insane because they've 31 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,640 Speaker 1: convinced themselves that the moment they start to let up 32 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 1: and believe some of those other numbers is when they 33 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 1: really have to lock things down even more. Plus, if 34 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:14,959 Speaker 1: we don't do what they want us to do and 35 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,079 Speaker 1: everything actually happens the way we say it will, Clay, 36 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 1: maybe they were wrong all along, which is another huge 37 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 1: fear they have. But you asked about the weekend. I 38 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,359 Speaker 1: was first off t and Lowe at Washington Examiner with 39 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 1: the hat tip on the reporting about Mayor Bowser in DC, 40 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 1: and we're gonna we're gonna dive into that in a second, 41 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 1: just because so classic, I mean, joins that long list 42 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: of all these of the governor California knew some of 43 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 1: the mayor of Chagaundury ridiculousness, Lorie Lightfoot flagrantly breaking her 44 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: own rules. Lorie Lightfoot needed a haircut because she's important 45 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 1: and you're not. That was what the rule was. That 46 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 1: was actually the rule in Chicago. But I got told 47 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:57,799 Speaker 1: over the weekend in my own neighborhood in a wine store, 48 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: excuse me, sir, you have to leave. You don't have 49 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 1: a mask on. I'm sitting there, I'm saying, there's no 50 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,360 Speaker 1: mask mandate, Like what, oh oh, Now we're gonna do 51 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,640 Speaker 1: this thing where some people in some stores expect you 52 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: to have the emergency smelly mask in your back pocket because, 53 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 1: let's be honest, to get sweaty, and then it sits 54 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: in the back pocket. You don't really use it all 55 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: the time. No one's washing their masks too. These things 56 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,679 Speaker 1: are peatree dishes, and it's oh, okay for you. I'll 57 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,920 Speaker 1: put on my mask and then I'm sure that people 58 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: that work in this store go out to eat, or 59 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: they go to another grocery store without their masks on. 60 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 1: But we're gonna keep playing this game until they've exhausted 61 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: themselves with their irrationality Clay, which might take a very 62 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 1: long time. Yeah, I talked about this on Friday. I 63 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: landed in Las Vegas on Thursday night, two hours before 64 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 1: their mask mandate went into effect at midnight on Friday. 65 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 1: So on Sunday morning, so Saturday, oh, I guess Friday. 66 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: My wife went down to the gym in the hotel 67 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: we were staying at. We were at the Palazzo out 68 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: on the strip for people out there in Vegas, and 69 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 1: she went to work out in the gym while we 70 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: were doing our show on Friday the morning on Pacific 71 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: time out there, and so worked out Friday. She goes 72 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: back down to work out on Sunday. They have changed 73 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 1: everything in the gym. Buck They have an employee who 74 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 1: is walking around the gym to ensure that people who 75 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 1: are running on treadmills have their masks accurately up above 76 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 1: their nose. If you are running on a treadmill and 77 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: your mask falls down for any period of time at all, 78 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: below your nose. She was immediately telling people that they 79 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 1: had to lift their masks back up. This is a 80 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:46,480 Speaker 1: Las Vegas hotel, right, It's not like people make typically 81 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 1: really great healthy decisions in Las Vegas. Probably the people 82 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 1: that are in the gym working out in the morning 83 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: in a Las Vegas hotel or probably pretty healthy relatively speaking. 84 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 1: She walking around the gym telling people as they are 85 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:08,359 Speaker 1: working out, as they are running full speed on treadmills, 86 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: that they have to ensure that their mask is not 87 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,359 Speaker 1: falling down. And by the way, it's almost impossible to 88 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,919 Speaker 1: run very fast with a stupid mask on your face 89 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,160 Speaker 1: where you can't get oxygen. There is no way that 90 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 1: is safer. They're going to have if they haven't already 91 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 1: had lawsuits from people who are trying to work out 92 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,160 Speaker 1: that end up passing out because they can't get enough oxygen. 93 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 1: And that has to be statistically infinitely more dangerous than 94 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:39,720 Speaker 1: you breathing out during the post COVID when so many 95 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 1: people are vaccinated and so many people have already had 96 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: it all. This is insanity. Everyone's gonna have the place 97 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 1: where they have to draw the line coming up. That's right, 98 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: that's for her. That was it that she said, I'm out, 99 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 1: she took her head, she's left the gyms that I 100 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 1: can't do this. That's where we're going here for some people. 101 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 1: I have put myself in this category. Although missus Travis 102 00:05:58,640 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 1: goes to the gym a lot more than I do, 103 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:02,600 Speaker 1: the gym is going to be a line for me. 104 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 1: Whenever I do finally get my butt into the gym. 105 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 1: I'm not wearing a mask in the gym. People can 106 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 1: come up to me, they can give me. It's too 107 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 1: much for a lot of people, though, I think it's 108 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 1: going to be schools. And you're seeing this now playing 109 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 1: out at some states or fighting back against this. Other 110 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 1: states are saying that they're going to go forward with this. 111 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: You're gonna have massed children in some schools, unmasked children 112 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 1: and others, and this is going to terrify them. Ask 113 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 1: me and the acts, because we'll have a real we'll 114 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 1: have real data sets to look at of people the 115 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 1: same age range in different states and did masks do 116 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: anything with regard to outbreaks and cases? Now, they'll ignore 117 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 1: the data because they always do, but at least we'll 118 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 1: have the data in a clear and straightforward way. But 119 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 1: I think everyone needs you know, what I've been saying 120 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 1: cleft to this point is that in a few weeks 121 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:50,919 Speaker 1: it'll be clear that this is a wave like the 122 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:53,280 Speaker 1: other waves. They'll start to go down again. But as 123 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 1: we know, just because there's a wave and we see 124 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 1: it and it happens, as we say, they never learn 125 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 1: the necessary lessons from this process playing out. The lockdowners 126 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: always find a way to just fight in their heads. 127 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,799 Speaker 1: And what you're seeing now is a move toward COVID 128 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 1: zero as the overall mentality. This is why the Washington 129 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 1: Post reports on how many cases there are, and people say, well, 130 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: hold on a second, what about the fact that fatalities 131 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 1: are down over ninety percent from the peak, that cities 132 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: like New York have one or two people a day 133 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 1: dying from COVID. And look, every death is a tragedy, 134 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 1: but we got a lot more people than that literally 135 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: getting shot in some of these cities. You've got people 136 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 1: dying it from heart disease and much higher numbers. There's 137 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: a total disconnect from the reality. And if we saw 138 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 1: what goes on in some of these European countries. Did 139 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 1: you see some of these protests over the weekend in Germany, 140 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 1: in France. I mean, when you have Germans with Politsai 141 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 1: on their chest going into cafes and bludgeoning old people 142 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 1: for not obeying state mandates, that should make the hair 143 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 1: on the back of your next stand up a little 144 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 1: bit like. This is getting really authoritarian and scary in 145 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 1: other country, never mind Australia, where they've called out the 146 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 1: military and they're finding people five hundred dollars for being 147 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 1: seen without a mask in public. This is absolute insanity. 148 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 1: But the Democrats have not accepted that at all. They're 149 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 1: actually doubling down. And I'm hearing there's a Biden speech 150 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: coming this week where he's going to do just that. Yeah, 151 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 1: and here's the thing. You can look at the data 152 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: if we want to. England is an interesting example, right. 153 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 1: We talked about India, where the delta variant emerged in 154 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: the first place. Almost no one in India is vaccinated, 155 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 1: and they've actually done antibody studies that show that two 156 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:42,080 Speaker 1: thirds of India basically got COVID. And we've talked about 157 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: this a lotbuck the reason why I would point to England. 158 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,560 Speaker 1: England does studies, and I don't know why we haven't 159 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 1: done these studies in the United States. Is an interesting 160 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 1: question and I think an indictment of our overall health leadership. 161 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: But they are projecting now in England as cases are 162 00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 1: starting to decline fairly precipitously, despite the fact that opened 163 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 1: the country back up in a big way on July nineteenth. 164 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: Ninety two percent buck of people in England, according to 165 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,560 Speaker 1: the studies that they've done, have either been vaccinated or 166 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:15,079 Speaker 1: had COVID. So we talk a lot about herd immunity, 167 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 1: at least we used to. If we know ninety two 168 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,319 Speaker 1: percent of the people in England have either gotten a 169 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:25,079 Speaker 1: vaccine or have had COVID, I would think that our 170 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 1: numbers in the United States can't be that much different 171 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 1: than England. What is you think it's somewhat similar. This 172 00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 1: is an essential conclusion and we didn't even discuss this beforehand, 173 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 1: but I was thinking about this all weekend and I 174 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,439 Speaker 1: completely agree with where this takes us. What really should 175 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:44,199 Speaker 1: be posed to the public and basing this on your 176 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 1: UK data you're siting, which I've also seen, is your 177 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 1: choices actually, and they've never told they've pretended all the 178 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 1: stuff the States, the Big S state has done has 179 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: been we will keep you safe. Do everything we say, 180 00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 1: and we will keep you safe. And really what you 181 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 1: see is your choice is just how you're exposed to 182 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 1: COVID and under what circumstances you can get it after 183 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:08,839 Speaker 1: being You'll be exposed to COVID after being vaccinated, which 184 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 1: might mean you have no infection. And it is very 185 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 1: it is very effective up to this point at preventing 186 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 1: severe illness and death. That is what the data says 187 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 1: so far. People are worried about it declining, but really 188 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 1: what you've what we've set up here is a choice 189 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:28,200 Speaker 1: between get COVID naturally or get vaccinated and slash and 190 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 1: maybe still get covid, but it is a small, small percentage, 191 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 1: but it's either get vaccinated or get covid. There is 192 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,560 Speaker 1: not this All this other stuff that you hear about 193 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 1: is noise because essentially everyone is going to be exposed 194 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: to it at some point. That's the entire purpose of 195 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 1: the vaccine is to expose your body to COVID. So 196 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 1: either you're gonna get it naturally or you're gonna get 197 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: it artificially through the vaccine. And that's it. And so 198 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: while all this stuff about the people, this is why 199 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 1: there's you have to put yourself in the mind of 200 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 1: those who were double masking outside even when they were 201 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:03,680 Speaker 1: going bicycling with their children. You know Lake and Xavier 202 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 1: and you know Atticus or whatever you like. I'm thinking 203 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 1: of Brooklyn people here who are all about all about 204 00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 1: the most extreme measures possible. They're like in their thirties. 205 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: But for zo risk statistically it's almost your risk. But 206 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 1: for them their mindset is, oh, but I could still 207 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 1: even though I'm vaccinated at I could still get it. 208 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: And it's those evil Trump supporters. It is the low 209 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 1: risk vaccinated who are pushing the madness. The unvaccinated right 210 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: now out there are like, I've made my choice, let 211 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: it ride. It's, by the way, the unvaccinated may also 212 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,559 Speaker 1: have already had COVID two buck. I mean a lot 213 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 1: of people like this discussion about oh, there's people who 214 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 1: are refusing to get the vaccine. A lot of those 215 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: people think or know that they had COVID. Right, So again, 216 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 1: I go to that ninety two percent because we spend 217 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 1: a lot of time talking about what percentage of people 218 00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 1: have been vaccinated or refusing to be vaccinated. It totally 219 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:04,079 Speaker 1: vaccinated depending on the age. If you actually look at 220 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:07,679 Speaker 1: that British study, ninety two percent of people either have 221 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 1: had the vaccine or have had COVID, and a lot 222 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 1: of those ninety two percent, by the way, buck have 223 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 1: had both. Right, there's a lot of people out there 224 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: who had COVID and also have gotten the vaccine. And 225 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:23,319 Speaker 1: all of this, as you said, is virtue signaling madness. 226 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: The people who are vaccinated are the most restrictive on 227 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 1: what they want to be done. Still, we're gonna come 228 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 1: into doctor Fouch in a second here. Who is the 229 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 1: lab coat tyrant extraordinaire who believes that you have a 230 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 1: right or people have a right to make you not 231 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: have a right to breathe free fresh air. We'll come 232 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 1: into that in a moment. We've got a testimonial here 233 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,719 Speaker 1: about Relief Factor. Once again, they just keep flooding in. 234 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: This one's from David and Pennsylvania. He writes, I tried 235 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 1: relief Factor for hit pain and was surprised, and it 236 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 1: also helped relieve my shoulder and foot discomfort. After taking 237 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 1: it for a month, I stopped, and sure enough the 238 00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 1: pain returned. I started taking Relief Factor again and within 239 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:04,680 Speaker 1: a week the pain was relieved. I'm now taking relief 240 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 1: Factor Daily, David writes, Look, I know that relief Factor 241 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: has really helped my dad. My mom started taking it 242 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:11,960 Speaker 1: because my dad has had such good results with it, 243 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 1: and it's helpful in the Travis family as well. Clay, Yeah, 244 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:17,560 Speaker 1: I talked about my wife earlier in the show and 245 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 1: how good a shape she's in even though she's being 246 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:22,439 Speaker 1: driven insane by people who are mask patrolling her, and 247 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 1: she wants to make sure that she uses one hundred 248 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 1: percent drug free product which addresses joint pain, knee, hip, backneck, 249 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,719 Speaker 1: and shoulder pain. It loves a relief Factor which she 250 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 1: takes because it was created by doctors based on scientific research. 251 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,959 Speaker 1: It helps your body reduced pain and inflammation from aging, exercise, 252 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 1: and everyday living, and it goes right to the source 253 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: of the inflammation. Hundreds of thousands of people have already 254 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 1: ordered relief Factor in about seventy percent of them keep 255 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 1: ordering more. You can join the more than half a 256 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 1: million total people and order your three week quick start 257 00:13:56,320 --> 00:14:00,079 Speaker 1: for only nineteen ninety five today again, go to relief 258 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 1: Factor dot com, call eight hundred four relief and you 259 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:07,080 Speaker 1: get a nineteen ninety five three week quickstart developed four 260 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 1: you at relief Factor dot com you can call eight 261 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 1: hundred the number four relief relief factor feel the difference. 262 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 1: So a person's individual individual decision to not wear a 263 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 1: mask not only impacts them because if they get infected, 264 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 1: even though they say it's my decision, if I get infected, 265 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: I'll worry about that. But the fact is, if you 266 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 1: get infected, even if you are without symptoms, you very 267 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 1: well may infect another person who may be vulnerable, who 268 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 1: may get seriously ill. So in essence, you are encroaching 269 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 1: on their individual rights because you're making them vulnerable. So 270 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 1: you could argue that situation both ways. Welcome back to 271 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 1: Clay Travis and Buck Sexton show. This is Buck and 272 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 1: that was the fouch and you hurt him over the 273 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 1: weekend making this case, which has really been what their 274 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 1: mentality is all along. This is how they think about things. 275 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 1: Their unreasonable anxiety, the lockdown or mentality, the virtue signaling, 276 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 1: the sanctimony that goes along with it, all of that. 277 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: They're not going to let it go and you have 278 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 1: to live by the rules dictated by that madness. So 279 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:28,320 Speaker 1: Clay and essets, it's like the fouch saying my mask 280 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 1: is your mask. Your mask is like my mask and 281 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 1: we're a happy mask family, and shut up, take the 282 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 1: shot and double mask. I mean, that's this guy's been. 283 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:43,600 Speaker 1: At least he's consistent in being awful. Well, the problem 284 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 1: with the logic of the clip that we just laid 285 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 1: out is that doesn't just apply to COVID. What doctor 286 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 1: Fauci is effectively arguing is if you are ever sick, 287 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 1: and you ever get someone else sick for any reason, 288 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 1: then you are in some way culpable for that, which 289 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 1: is directly contrary to anything that we've ever said about 290 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 1: viruses in the past. The flu exists every year, colds 291 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 1: exist every year. To my knowledge, we never sit around 292 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 1: and argue about, Hey, who's responsible for how I ended 293 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 1: up sick? Because the attenuated nature of viral transmission is 294 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 1: so difficult that basically virus is spread in general through 295 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 1: the course of normal human interaction. And that is a 296 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 1: bargain that all of us have had to make throughout 297 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: human history that in order to be human, there comes 298 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 1: with it some risk, and one of those risks is virus. 299 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 1: And that's why Buck, I've been making this argument for 300 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 1: years and years, and I think it's a good one 301 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 1: that it's worth circling back around too. And I'll give 302 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 1: credit to my old high school econ teacher who came 303 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 1: up with it the first time I ever heard anybody 304 00:16:55,880 --> 00:17:00,120 Speaker 1: say it. You can't eliminate. We agree that life for 305 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 1: requires with it a certain level of risk. And I'll 306 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 1: give you an example, and this is one that I've 307 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:08,920 Speaker 1: been using for decades. We could make cars that would 308 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,600 Speaker 1: guarantee buck that no one ever died. How would we 309 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 1: do that. We could put a governor on a speed 310 00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:17,879 Speaker 1: limit and no one would ever be able to drive 311 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 1: more than twenty miles an hour. You would have to 312 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:24,560 Speaker 1: be a pretty big imbecile in a car to die 313 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 1: driving twenty miles an hour. I mean you could still 314 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 1: drive off a cliff. I guess you know that there 315 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 1: are certain ways that you could still allow yourself to 316 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 1: die at twenty miles an hour. But it's almost impossible 317 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 1: to die at twenty miles an hour. But society has 318 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:42,959 Speaker 1: decided that for the purposes of driving, sixty five seventy 319 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:45,200 Speaker 1: five fifty five would every mile per hour. We're willing 320 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:48,159 Speaker 1: to take that. We're willing to have forty thousand people 321 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 1: a year die because we value speed, and we balance 322 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 1: that out with loss of life. How are we not 323 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 1: doing that now? You should also have to mandate helmets 324 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 1: and cars, by the way, because head injuries and cars 325 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,440 Speaker 1: are much more common that lead to a death than 326 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 1: for cyclists. But that's a whole other conversation. We'll come 327 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 1: back into the madness of the left year in a second. 328 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 1: But if you own a home, you gotta have home 329 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: title lock because the FBI says home title fraud is 330 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 1: one of the fastest growing crimes out there. That's why 331 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 1: Clay and I both have home title Lock to protect 332 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,159 Speaker 1: our homes. The title documents to our homes are stored 333 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:24,159 Speaker 1: in the cloud. That's really risky because that's where the 334 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 1: cyber thief finds it. But that's where they are. They 335 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 1: forge your signature on a quitclaim deed says you sold 336 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,480 Speaker 1: your home to them. Then the nightmare starts collection calls 337 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: for loans you never took out, and your insurance or 338 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 1: common identity theft services don't cover you. For pennies a day, 339 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,199 Speaker 1: Home Title Lock secures your home's title and backs it 340 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:44,119 Speaker 1: with a million dollars guarantee.

Welcome back 344 00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 1: to the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, and we 345 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 1: are trying to make sense of the madness. An island 346 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: of sanity in a storm of fauciite crazy. We were 347 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:10,879 Speaker 1: just talking before about how he says, you don't have 348 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:14,439 Speaker 1: a right to breathe fresh air like a normal person 349 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:17,159 Speaker 1: has for all of human history, because other people have 350 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:20,119 Speaker 1: a right to not be exposed to your microscopic germs 351 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,880 Speaker 1: that you have no control over. So we're getting now 352 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 1: into the end stages of what you could call the 353 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 1: fauciite madness, you could call it the lockdown consensus, or 354 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 1: just the anything to beat Donald Trump in twenty twenty 355 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 1: and leverage all of the panic and fear possible to 356 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 1: do so strategy. But here we are now starting to 357 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:47,359 Speaker 1: deal with the new reality of people saying, I mean 358 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:49,919 Speaker 1: Clay brought up a moment ago. It's a distute points 359 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,480 Speaker 1: one that we were both making, many conservatives are making 360 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 1: in the beginning of this whole thing, why not have 361 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 1: a fifteen mile an hour speed limit? Right? And people said, oh, 362 00:19:56,840 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 1: you just want grandma to die to that point, because 363 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 1: we don't think that it's a fair trade to make everybody. 364 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 1: I brought up the thing about bicycle helmets. If anyone 365 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:08,240 Speaker 1: does a quick look at the stats, far more people 366 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,880 Speaker 1: die from head injuries and car crashes than on bicycles. 367 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 1: It's not even close. So why not Why shouldn't everyone 368 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 1: be driving around in their car with a serious helmet on. 369 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 1: I mean they do it for NASCAR drivers, right, why 370 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 1: not have everybody We all understand at some point it's 371 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 1: crazy in Clay. Here is doctor Megan Ranny on CNN 372 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 1: kind of saying the quiet part out loud. We are 373 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 1: never going to go back to a pre pandemic reality, 374 00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:34,680 Speaker 1: and I do agree that we do have to become 375 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,719 Speaker 1: comfortable with the fact that this virus is going to 376 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:42,639 Speaker 1: be sticking around. Our goal is to decrease severe illness, hospitalization, 377 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 1: and death. Listen, there are two hundred hospital workers in 378 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,199 Speaker 1: San Francisco who've gotten sick over the last couple of 379 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 1: weeks because of exposure, largely to unvaccinated people who caught Delta, 380 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 1: who then got the vaccinated sick. That's not fair. So yes, 381 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 1: we have to learn to live with this, but today 382 00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 1: is not the moment where we drop our pre when 383 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,479 Speaker 1: we get all of our kids vaccinated, when we know 384 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,200 Speaker 1: a little more about the long term effects of the 385 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 1: breakthroughs than that's the point in which this becomes yet 386 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,440 Speaker 1: another virus that is part of our day to day life. Well, 387 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 1: I just we're never going back to our pre pandemic reality. 388 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 1: That's the part that we have to fight against with 389 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:19,119 Speaker 1: everything we have. That's the part we have to summon 390 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 1: our vision of what they're doing to people in Australia 391 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 1: and France and Germany, like state sanctioned psychopaths, Clay, we 392 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 1: cannot allow it. Well, and we're to the point now 393 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 1: where COVID is the eighth or ninth leading cause of 394 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:37,359 Speaker 1: death in the United States, if it's even that high 395 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:41,679 Speaker 1: right now. And I've been arguing this for over a 396 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 1: year now, but at some point the obsession with COVID, 397 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:51,159 Speaker 1: because it's new. If we're going to be obsessed with health, 398 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:56,120 Speaker 1: instead of mandating masks and lockdowns, we should have mandated 399 00:21:56,480 --> 00:22:01,120 Speaker 1: diets and exercise. Because the number umber one way that 400 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 1: you could help to protect yourself from COVID for much 401 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 1: of the last eighteen months was by being as healthy 402 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 1: as you possibly could. Because you can't control your age. 403 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 1: But obesity was one of the massive causes of death 404 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 1: associated with COVID. If you were obese and you were elderly, 405 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:26,080 Speaker 1: COVID struck you at a high rate and crippled and 406 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:29,920 Speaker 1: killed many people with both of those aspects. If you 407 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 1: were overweight and you were elderly, but we didn't say 408 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 1: anything about, hey, exercise more, diet, get your weight under control. 409 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:43,159 Speaker 1: Instead we said mask and go into your house and 410 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 1: never leave, eat cheetos and watch Netflix. We overall increased 411 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,480 Speaker 1: the average amount of weight that people in America way 412 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,879 Speaker 1: and we were already a fat country. You trying to 413 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 1: offend our cheetos eating. You know some people like che 414 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: fat shaming like you. You have seen you shame wingles. 415 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:06,200 Speaker 1: Don't very I eat very unhealthily compared to my wife, 416 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:07,600 Speaker 1: who is going to live to be one hundred and 417 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:12,120 Speaker 1: fifteen years old. But to what extent are we only 418 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 1: going to single out COVID as if no other illness exists, 419 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 1: as if no other way of death exists, as if frankly, 420 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 1: we are ignoring many deaths that are occurring because of 421 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 1: our response to COVID. Again, if you look at I'm 422 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 1: big on looking at years of life lost because people 423 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 1: want to look at life lost. Well, we're all spoiler 424 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,119 Speaker 1: alert on a Monday in the summer. I'm sorry, as 425 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:40,400 Speaker 1: we roll into August, all of us are going to die, 426 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 1: right spoiler alert. I hate to hate to hit you 427 00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 1: with it. What we try to do is make sure 428 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 1: that as many people as possible can live long and 429 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: healthy lives. And what we're seeing is the lockdowns are 430 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:59,679 Speaker 1: taking many more years right now. I really believe this 431 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:03,399 Speaker 1: off of people's lives. Thirty thousand more people died of 432 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 1: drug overdoses than have ever died before. The average age 433 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 1: of those people are in their thirties and their forties. Well, 434 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,400 Speaker 1: they lost forty years of life. And then think about 435 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:14,840 Speaker 1: the math on this. If you look at the average 436 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 1: age of death, if somebody's forty years old dies, they 437 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 1: lose around forty years of life. Buck if somebody who's 438 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 1: eighty dies, they may lose a year or six months 439 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,239 Speaker 1: of life. Years lost is a big deal when it 440 00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:30,400 Speaker 1: comes to quality of life and life years. We can't 441 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:34,640 Speaker 1: even agree that it's not a I mean, yes, everything 442 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:36,880 Speaker 1: you said there is true and worthy, but Clay, it's 443 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 1: like we can't actually even get people to all agree 444 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:44,160 Speaker 1: right now that instituting a mask mandate in Washington, DC, 445 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 1: when you've had two people die in two weeks, you 446 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: don't even have a person a day in a city 447 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:55,680 Speaker 1: of three quarters of a million, with very dense population 448 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:59,200 Speaker 1: in a lot of the city. You were treating this 449 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:03,719 Speaker 1: as though numbers no longer matter. There's an obvious effort 450 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,919 Speaker 1: among some of the Democratic line media to downplay the 451 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 1: fact that debts are very low from COVID right now, 452 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 1: even with how many weeks has the delta variant been 453 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:16,879 Speaker 1: spreading Los Angeles County last fourteen days? I think it 454 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 1: was either six or seven on average a day. Los 455 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 1: Angeles County has millions of people. New York City has 456 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:26,679 Speaker 1: eight million people. You're losing a person or two a 457 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:29,480 Speaker 1: day in New York City and we're still having this conversation. 458 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I got told Clay you're gonna be here tomorrow. 459 00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 1: I speak lib and I will protect you from the 460 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,919 Speaker 1: crazy libs here. I just I know how to distract them. 461 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 1: I'll start talking about intersectionality, because when someone from Nashville 462 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 1: who loves freedom shows up, they get very they get 463 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 1: very anxious. But you're gonna see there'll be stores you 464 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 1: go into, the restaurants who all of a sudden are saying, 465 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:52,359 Speaker 1: we've got We've got to go back. We're in so 466 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 1: much danger. We're not in so much danger all of 467 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 1: a sudden. This is the foundational lie of the panic. 468 00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:01,360 Speaker 1: Right now, we're going to be okay, we are managing this. 469 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:03,959 Speaker 1: Everyone needs to calm down, and we need to go 470 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 1: back to a fully pre pandemic reality in our day 471 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:10,440 Speaker 1: to day lives. That's the point that they won't concede. Amen. 472 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 1: And we have the data to reflect that this is 473 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 1: what is going to happen with the delta variant. Because 474 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,199 Speaker 1: you can look at what happened in India, and you 475 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,720 Speaker 1: can look at what happened in England, and both of 476 00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 1: those countries got the delta variant before we did. We're 477 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 1: going to see a spike in overall number of cases, 478 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:30,879 Speaker 1: although hopefully we're not going to see that much of 479 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:34,400 Speaker 1: a spike in deaths or hospitalizations relative to what we've 480 00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:37,159 Speaker 1: seen before, and then those numbers are going to recede. 481 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 1: And here's the deal, Buck, The reason why they need 482 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 1: to institute all these new changes is because if they 483 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 1: do nothing and we see a little curve and then 484 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:49,879 Speaker 1: it comes back down, you're going to have even more 485 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:54,440 Speaker 1: evidence of the truth, which is almost everything we've done 486 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 1: is cosmetic theater that has had virtually no impact on 487 00:26:57,520 --> 00:26:59,480 Speaker 1: the spread of the virus. And for anyone who might 488 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:02,159 Speaker 1: wonder for a second, any reasonable person who would say, 489 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:05,400 Speaker 1: hold on, what Clay just said is true, but who 490 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:08,439 Speaker 1: could be so diabolical that they wouldn't want to know 491 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:11,920 Speaker 1: the truth about what works against COVID and what doesn't 492 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:14,440 Speaker 1: when it comes to mitigating the spread. And let's be 493 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 1: very clear, as Clay and I have said many times, 494 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:19,720 Speaker 1: vaccines effective in bringing down deaths and hospitalizations. That's proven 495 00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 1: so far in the data. All this other stuff we're 496 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 1: talking about talking about though, the vaccine, I mean, they're 497 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:28,440 Speaker 1: the lockdown theater. The people who don't want us to 498 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 1: get to the truth are the people who would be 499 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 1: held accountable, not just Fauci, but the whole health apparatus, 500 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 1: all the blue check mds out there who've been making 501 00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 1: jackasses of themselves for over a year now on TV 502 00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 1: demanding these things, demanding they mask up your children, and ultimately, 503 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:46,639 Speaker 1: at the top of all this too, the Democrat Party's 504 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 1: power apparatus. What happens to the Democrats in the midterms 505 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 1: if we all figure out that one they basically lied 506 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 1: about how Trump was so awful with the virus to 507 00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:58,160 Speaker 1: beat him, and two there are a bunch of clowns 508 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,640 Speaker 1: who actually ignored the data while they were screening hashtag 509 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,360 Speaker 1: science the whole time. I think that plays badly for them, 510 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 1: play among independence and persuadable. I think it's I think 511 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 1: this is playing awful for them already, Buck, and we're 512 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 1: going to continue to talk about this. I want to 513 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:14,960 Speaker 1: make sure we hit the mayor of DC and a 514 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 1: story that's basically being covered up by the Washington Post. 515 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 1: But in the meantime, if you're with AT and T, 516 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,400 Speaker 1: Verizon Tea Mobile, you're paying too much for your cell service. 517 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:27,160 Speaker 1: Pure Talk is the exact same network, using the exact 518 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:30,080 Speaker 1: same towers as one of those big carriers, but for 519 00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:32,160 Speaker 1: a heck of a lot less money. In fact, they 520 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:35,480 Speaker 1: can save the average family over eight hundred dollars a year. 521 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:38,600 Speaker 1: Switching is insanely easy. I've got my thirteen year old 522 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 1: son on their network. He gets unlimited talk, text, and 523 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 1: six gigs of data for just thirty dollars a month. 524 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 1: And Buck, it's so easy to sign up, and if 525 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 1: you go over on data, they don't charge you for it. 526 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 1: I mean, here's just a customer who wrote in one 527 00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 1: of the people who switch you listens to us. You're 528 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 1: John from Bowling Green. He says the customer service was 529 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 1: great and respectful. They treat you as a valued customer, 530 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 1: will continue with your service provider and recommend it to 531 00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 1: friends that they transfer to pure Talk. So he's having 532 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 1: a great experience that tens of thousands of Russian listeners 533 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 1: have already switched over. Do it right now, and it's 534 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 1: so easy. From your cell phone, dial pound two fifty 535 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 1: and say pure Talk. You'll say fifty percent off your 536 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 1: first month. Just take out your cell phone now, dial 537 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 1: pound two five zero and say pure Talk. You'll get 538 00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 1: the option to receive a one time autodial text message 539 00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 1: from pure Talk. Welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show. 540 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 1: I am Clay Travis. Appreciate all of you hanging out 541 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 1: with us as we roll through the Monday edition of 542 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:50,000 Speaker 1: the show. And we got to talk about this because 543 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 1: it's not being covered very much in the Washington, DC 544 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 1: area or by national media. Remember the Washington Post slogan 545 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,720 Speaker 1: that they put at the top of their newspaper, democracy 546 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 1: Dies in Darkness. Well interestingly, DC now has a mask 547 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:14,200 Speaker 1: mandate vaccinated or unvaccinated indoors, and Tiana Lowe at the 548 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 1: Washington Examiner caught Mayor Muriel Bowser of Washington, d C. 549 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:27,160 Speaker 1: Officiating a wedding and then dining with hundreds of unmasked 550 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:31,440 Speaker 1: people indoors as a part of that wedding. I went 551 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:35,239 Speaker 1: and looked on Sunday buck Sexton because I was like, 552 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:39,280 Speaker 1: I wonder how much attention the Washington Post is giving 553 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:45,200 Speaker 1: to this flagrant violation of DC's new mask policy by 554 00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 1: a powerful person, the mayor of Washington, d C. Given 555 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 1: the fact that they have Democracy Dies in Darkness emblazoned 556 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 1: at the top of the Washington Post. It was on Sunday. 557 00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 1: I can't even find it on their website now. On 558 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:04,479 Speaker 1: one day, it was the sixty first lead story that 559 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 1: this had occurred, and it was the twenty fourth COVID 560 00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:13,719 Speaker 1: story on the Washington Post website. A huge majority of 561 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 1: Washington Post readers are never going to know that their 562 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:21,720 Speaker 1: mayor doesn't even believe enough in the mask mandate that 563 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:25,480 Speaker 1: she's put in place to follow it for even twenty 564 00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 1: four hours after it began. Just think for a second, 565 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 1: Clay about the reaction. And I know this game. We 566 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 1: as conservative we have to do this all the time, 567 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:39,200 Speaker 1: Conservatives have. But we have to imagine you had a 568 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 1: Republican mayor who was somehow involved in this kind of hypocrisy, 569 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:46,520 Speaker 1: or even a Republican mayor who was at a ceremony 570 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 1: like this, and they had photos of it, and they said, 571 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 1: look at what a super it would be a super 572 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:53,960 Speaker 1: spreader event, right, that's what they'd be calling it. Hey. 573 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 1: Another example of this is the phenomenon of the five 574 00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,960 Speaker 1: hundred person birthday party. You've got a lot of friends, 575 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 1: but five hundred people, that's that's a lot of folks, right, 576 00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:05,480 Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's a big that's a big party. 577 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 1: Five hundred person birthday party at at Barack Obama, a 578 00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:14,960 Speaker 1: former president Obama's twelve million dollar house in Martha's Vineyard, 579 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:16,600 Speaker 1: which is actually kind of like a mid level house 580 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:18,800 Speaker 1: in the vineyard photos where there the vineyard is a 581 00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:20,800 Speaker 1: place where you could spend outrage of sums of money. 582 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 1: But obviously the guys in a giant, beautiful mansion, five 583 00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,200 Speaker 1: hundred people at his wedding now, I have no problem 584 00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 1: with Obama doing this. I want to be very clear. 585 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:29,840 Speaker 1: I think Obama should people to have a party for 586 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 1: thousands of people. But I'm not a Democrat who's lecturing 587 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 1: everybody all the time about mask mandates and vaccine mandates 588 00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 1: and all the rest of it. I'm consistent if Obama, 589 00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:45,360 Speaker 1: forget about him for a second, If Ronda Santis even 590 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,800 Speaker 1: in Florida, we're holding a five hundred person birthday party 591 00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 1: right now, we're the Smashing Pumpkins by the way, a 592 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 1: kind of overrated nineties band. I love nineties rock holes. 593 00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 1: They're okay, they're not. I don't. I'm not gonna say, 594 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 1: you know better in Green Day maybe. But the reality 595 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:05,120 Speaker 1: here is if ron de Santis was doing this clay, 596 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:08,040 Speaker 1: it would be considered an act of mass human sacrifice. 597 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 1: They'd they'd be comparing everyone who attended Ron De Santis's 598 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 1: party to you know, Jim Jones kool aid drinking cultists. 599 00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:18,959 Speaker 1: And I'm just sick. I'm sick of the bullcrap. Like 600 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,760 Speaker 1: we all know that there's no actual standard they used 601 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,719 Speaker 1: to judge these things, no doubt. And Obama's party, by 602 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:28,040 Speaker 1: the way, is on Martha's vineyard. So everybody is not 603 00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:31,240 Speaker 1: only going to his party, they're traveling to it. Right. 604 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:33,200 Speaker 1: It's not as if he's having a party in New 605 00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 1: York City or Washington, DC, where many people who would 606 00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 1: be attending the party already live. Martha's vineyard is I 607 00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 1: would bet. I would venture to say, of the five 608 00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:47,840 Speaker 1: hundred people that'll be there, I bet four hundred and 609 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 1: fifty of them are traveling to Martha's vineyard expressly forward 610 00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 1: the former president's party. I mean, if Trump had a 611 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 1: five hundred person party at Maralago for his birthday, people 612 00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 1: would lose their mind. It's not even a current sitting 613 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:06,160 Speaker 1: elected official. It's former President Trump. People would say, Oh, look, 614 00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:10,000 Speaker 1: Trump continues to say that that COVID doesn't matter. Look, 615 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:13,560 Speaker 1: he continues to put his life and his fund above 616 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 1: everybody else. Oh, look at the lack of science that 617 00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:19,759 Speaker 1: he's following. Obama does it, and by and large most 618 00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:23,320 Speaker 1: people are going to ignore it. Not even worse than that, buck, 619 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:26,959 Speaker 1: The media is going to make excuses for them. They're 620 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:30,400 Speaker 1: going to say, well, but it's outdoors, Well, but they're 621 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:33,520 Speaker 1: testing people for COVID, Well, but people are vaccinated. Whatever 622 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:36,440 Speaker 1: the case may be, the story of why the CDC 623 00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 1: decided in many ways to reinstitute the mask mandate came 624 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:46,839 Speaker 1: from a party Joe I Fourth in Massachusetts, basically Cape 625 00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 1: cod basically the exact thing that he's doing. Excellent point, 626 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:53,480 Speaker 1: completely true. A big party led to the panic that 627 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:57,480 Speaker 1: has now swept across with all vaccinated people. It's the 628 00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:00,480 Speaker 1: exact same thing Obama's doing. But this is a exactly 629 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:03,280 Speaker 1: what you see playing out time and time again where 630 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:08,320 Speaker 1: COVID has been used by the lockdowners as a weapon 631 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:11,840 Speaker 1: against their political opponents and as a tool of control. 632 00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 1: So when you have anti lockdown protests in the beginning 633 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:19,000 Speaker 1: of the pandemic, it's, oh, my gosh, these are super 634 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:22,919 Speaker 1: spread events. BLM starts in June of twenty twenty, it's, oh, 635 00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 1: this is good for public health. They're going to they're 636 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,760 Speaker 1: going to say save lives. And you even saw this recently. 637 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:30,920 Speaker 1: You know, we've talked a bit on the show about Cuba. 638 00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:32,880 Speaker 1: It's dropped out of the headlines. I think unfortunately the 639 00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:35,319 Speaker 1: regime is going to manage to you know, crush the 640 00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:38,279 Speaker 1: people under their under their bootial once again. But you 641 00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 1: started to see reports in the last week or so 642 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:43,480 Speaker 1: of you know, those freedom protests in Cuba coinciding with 643 00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:45,440 Speaker 1: a bit of a spike, just just so that the 644 00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:49,200 Speaker 1: media can show everybody, Oh, we don't really. We liked 645 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,359 Speaker 1: their regime in Cuba a little bit, and so we're 646 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:55,279 Speaker 1: willing to criticize the protests as COVID spreader events. Right. 647 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 1: This is always the tell, and it happens all over 648 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,000 Speaker 1: the place. But you know, there's there's an other major 649 00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:04,279 Speaker 1: area of dishonesty Clay that I think we need to 650 00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:07,480 Speaker 1: get into here, and that is it's just those unvaccinated 651 00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:11,640 Speaker 1: Trump supporters who are causing all the problem here. I 652 00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:13,840 Speaker 1: got some data you're gonna be in New York tomorrow 653 00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 1: about who and I'm not just talking about demographic groups, 654 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:22,120 Speaker 1: who works for what organizations. Let's get into major employers 655 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 1: who have people that are not vaccinated. I think this 656 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,840 Speaker 1: is gonna be very interesting. Here's a hint. It reminds 657 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:32,360 Speaker 1: me with teachers schmoonions. I can't wait to hear that data. Also, 658 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:38,640 Speaker 1: eviction moratoriums turning into a major battleground, and your favorite 659 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:42,919 Speaker 1: sports team, the US Women, take one right on the chin. 660 00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 1: We'll talk about all that and more as we continue 661 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:49,000 Speaker 1: to roll throughout the Clay Travis can Buck Sexton Show, 662 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 1: Oh Canada.
