Buck Sexton missions, 4 00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:35,599 Speaker 1: coding the news and disseminating information with actionable intelligence, make 5 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 1: no mistake.

No, 8 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,360 Speaker 1: welcome everybody to the buck Sexton Show. Great to have 9 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 1: you here with me as always and honor a privilege 10 00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 1: and a pleasure. They get to talk to you about 11 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 1: everything happening across the country. My mind, we have a 12 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:09,119 Speaker 1: very clear declaration of intent, I think from the teachers unions, 13 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 1: which we should always think of as the as the 14 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 1: the shock troops, if you will, of the Democrat Party. 15 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: They are right out there and have been for a 16 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:22,200 Speaker 1: long time. They don't burn down buildings, they just hold 17 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 1: the kids hostage. Going into this fall saying that they 18 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: are they're making demands of what they want, and this 19 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,480 Speaker 1: at a time when the whole country is trying to 20 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 1: figure out what exactly is going to happen here. If 21 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 1: we're now going to have these restrictions in place that 22 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,959 Speaker 1: are even preventative restrictions. In some states that don't have 23 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 1: very high COVID cases, we have extreme restrictions, and other places. 24 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 1: Who knows when those can end, because then you might 25 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 1: have a surgeon cases. There is just a panic out 26 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 1: there right now, and schools are now on the front 27 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: lines of the make sure Biden gets elected campaign. That's 28 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 1: what's happening with the teachers units. I'll get into more 29 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: of that, and what are their demands? What are the 30 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,079 Speaker 1: demands that they're putting out there In case you're wondering 31 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,920 Speaker 1: if they really are acting like a teachers unions are 32 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 1: acting like a Marxist terrorist group that has taken our 33 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 1: schools hostage. And my friends, we are entering this phase 34 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 1: now where everything about COVID, the economy, law enforcement, it's 35 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: just all a big political fight. You will not have 36 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 1: any good faith effort from Democrats to come into the 37 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 1: center on these issues or to work with Republicans to 38 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 1: make anything better. And of course I don't think Republicans 39 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: will go over to their side. They already have a 40 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:51,800 Speaker 1: little bit with some of this police reform stuff. But 41 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:53,920 Speaker 1: I also think they shouldn't go over to their side. 42 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: I think the Democrats obviously are wrong on all this stuff, 43 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: but they will they will double down, they will dig in. 44 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,800 Speaker 1: They're not going to move on any of this in 45 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: the least. And then that brings me to what we're 46 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 1: seeing at or in California. Now. Remember, remember the narrative 47 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 1: for the last week or so has been that California 48 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 1: that the states that are having a really rough time 49 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 1: really the last two weeks, Texas and Florida, Texas and Florida. 50 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: Yesterday I had that guy from MSNBC searchas in Florida 51 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 1: the dumbest leaders and they're so stupid and they're and 52 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 1: then we have sure enough California now going back into 53 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 1: a lockdown, stay at home orders. Now California is saying, 54 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: you know you got you gotta respect our authority to 55 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 1: tell you exactly what to do. After weeks of protests, 56 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: after weeks of protests that not only were a loud 57 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: but that Governor k Newsom was encouraging. They were all 58 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 1: pretending that this was fine. They want to lecture us 59 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: all about public health. They want to allow the Democrat, 60 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 1: the Democrat base of lunatics to mobilize in the streets 61 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 1: were also oppressed and police violected all that stuff. And 62 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: now after the virus has reached large levels, high levels 63 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 1: of cases in these states, they're telling us that they 64 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: want to bring back all of the all the old 65 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 1: stuff of shutdown, lockdown, same thing, that's what they're trying 66 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: to do. This is astonishing. Here's Governor k Newsom saying himself, 67 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: Blake clip seven, we are now effectively, rather effective today, 68 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:55,359 Speaker 1: requiring all counties to close their indoor activities, their indoor 69 00:04:55,400 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: operations in the following sectors restaurants, wineries, tasting rooms, movie theaters, 70 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 1: family entertainment centers, zoos and museums, card rooms, and the 71 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:11,279 Speaker 1: shuttering of all bars. This is in every county in 72 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 1: the state of California, not just the counties that were 73 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,720 Speaker 1: on the monitoring list that we announced on July first. 74 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 1: So this is a new statewide action effective today. Every 75 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 1: county in the state of California impacted by a requirement 76 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: now to modify indoor operations and to expand opportunities for 77 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 1: outdoor operations in these specific categories. Now, to be fair 78 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 1: and to be clear, they're getting they're they're moving back, 79 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,720 Speaker 1: They're not going all the way back to square one. 80 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 1: You can still have some outdoor things that are allowed. 81 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 1: But just wait, just wait, see where this goes, see 82 00:05:55,920 --> 00:06:00,119 Speaker 1: what ends up happening, especially if cases continue to be 83 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 1: very high for a few more weeks. There's a problem 84 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:07,479 Speaker 1: with what we've been told last last few weeks about 85 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 1: what's happening in the country with COVID nineteen. Texas and 86 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 1: Florida have been the focus of all the criticism from 87 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 1: the media. Why because they both have Republican governors and 88 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:19,799 Speaker 1: they're considered to be full of enough red state people, 89 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,280 Speaker 1: even though Florida is not a red state. Although we 90 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,720 Speaker 1: should probably all move there, my friends and flip it 91 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 1: like now, make sure, hint, hint, let's all go. Let's 92 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 1: all you know, I got an idea. You guys want 93 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: Trump to win. Those either are thinking about Florida, Producer 94 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:37,600 Speaker 1: Mark included, maybe it's time for us to head on 95 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: down there, register and make it happen. So they've been 96 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 1: focused on Texas and Florida because Texas and Florida are 97 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: able to be put on the Republican side of the equation. 98 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 1: And I know that it's very imperfect. And now they're 99 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 1: even saying I've seen these polling that says the Democrats 100 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 1: are thinking that Texas might even be a battleground state 101 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 1: for them, And Biden's up five points. And I don't 102 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:02,920 Speaker 1: think that the Democrats are gonna win Texas, but remember 103 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 1: if the Democrats win Texas, were it's all over. So 104 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: keep that in mind. California, though, is a state that 105 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 1: has been sanctimonious in its We respect the science, we 106 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 1: wear masks. We've been very slow to reopen. California was 107 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 1: the place where they were shutting down beaches and they 108 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 1: were chasing individual paddle borders out on the ocean with 109 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: nobody within a hundreds of yards because of COVID nineteen. 110 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: That's the state of California run entirely by Democrats, dominated 111 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 1: by Democrat voters. This is the liberal left wing stronghold 112 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: of America, really only rivaled by New York. And California 113 00:07:55,400 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 1: has had an enormous spike in cases and now they're 114 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 1: shutting down. So if what we've been told recently was true, 115 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 1: that it was because Republicans don't believe the science, right, 116 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: That is what we're always saying. Republicans don't wear enough masks. 117 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 1: You've got a lot of mask wearing in California. You 118 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:18,239 Speaker 1: got all kinds of you know, they'll listen to everyone 119 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: listens to Democrats there. They believe the science, all that stuff. 120 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: Why is California in this condition right now? Then? Now 121 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: there is an answer to this that isn't really about 122 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 1: the science entirely, which is they're always going to err 123 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:37,599 Speaker 1: on the side of more strict lockdown, more restrictions on 124 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 1: economic activity. Because the Democrats, remember, not only are they 125 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: going to have do they have the incentive of beating 126 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 1: Trump in the fall, they're also going to just keep 127 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 1: pumping money, pumping money through the system to people, and 128 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 1: they're going to keep their social services going. They're going 129 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: to do all these things while small businesses are going 130 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: out of business, of course. And then they're going to 131 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 1: make demands from the federal government, and they're gonna start 132 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 1: raising taxes on people that still have jobs and are 133 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 1: being productive. Now not to say that people without jobs 134 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 1: in millions of cases, it's no one's fault. I'm just 135 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 1: saying they're gonna go after whoever still has a job 136 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:17,680 Speaker 1: or whoever owns a home, raising their property taxes and 137 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 1: start redistributing wealth that way. That's their plent, so they're 138 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 1: not worried about it. If everyone has to stay home, 139 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: order in you groceries, and watch Netflix until election day. 140 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:31,200 Speaker 1: State of California, it's pretty much fine with that. That's 141 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: what it seems like. And if it means that Donald 142 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 1: Trump is guaranteed to lose the election, which I'm just 143 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,359 Speaker 1: gonna say this, if you have major states on lockdown 144 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 1: and an economy that has not been able to recover, 145 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: it's gonna be It's gonna be a miracle. If Donald 146 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 1: Trump wins, it's gonna be a miracle. Now, some of 147 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:49,719 Speaker 1: you are probably already saying, yeah, buck, but it was 148 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 1: a miracle in twenty sixteen, wasn't it true? True? But 149 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 1: are we really going to expect two miracles in a row? 150 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: You expect lightning to strike twice. I'm concerned. I think 151 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 1: we all should be very, very concerned. But I just 152 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 1: want to point to California as a place where I'm 153 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 1: sure the mask shaming was at a maximum and has 154 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: been for a long time, and you have an entirely 155 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 1: Democrat controlled state legislature, a Democrat governor. They hate Trump, 156 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 1: They're all you know. Doctor Fauci is the voice of sanity. Reason, decency, 157 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 1: and all the rest of it. And yet they're having 158 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 1: to shut down now. I don't think they would shut 159 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 1: down if they didn't have a high level of cases 160 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 1: they have had. I have friends in California who I 161 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 1: know have gotten COVID in the last thirty days. So 162 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,319 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm talking to people who are saying, yeah, 163 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 1: they've had it. Most of them, I'll just have, you know, 164 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 1: minimal symptoms. Some it's like the flu, and they're in 165 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 1: rough shape. But I don't know anybody in California who's 166 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 1: gotten a really, really bad version of the disease. But 167 00:10:57,559 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 1: this is now going to be the fight, which we 168 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 1: now an election to. What you're going to see is 169 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 1: the absolute politicization of every decision made in the name 170 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 1: of public health to really be about defeating Trump. That 171 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 1: between now and then, we've known this is coming for 172 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 1: a while, but we've really we've reached the tipping point 173 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 1: where middle of July, you know, the next ninety days 174 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 1: you're just gonna see Nope, shut it down, keep it 175 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 1: shut down. Everyone be panicked. Don't worry. The cavalry is 176 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 1: coming America. They will tell you, in the form of 177 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 1: Joe Biden. Let's just hope he knows which way to 178 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 1: ride the horse? Am a show up? Ramo? Where which 179 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 1: where am I? Yeah, Joe Biden's gonna fix all of this. 180 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 1: Joe Biden is the answer to our prayers. It's a 181 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 1: terrifying thought, but that's what we're gonna be told. And 182 00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: the the viciousness. You know, for years, Democrats were so 183 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 1: nasty about Trump, I mean really really insidious in not 184 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:09,439 Speaker 1: just the way they talked about the president, but also 185 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: their view of his supporters. When things were great, not 186 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 1: fighting any big wars, booming economy, and they still convinced 187 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 1: themselves fascism is coming to America. Trump has been given 188 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 1: with this whole COVID pandemic, an enormous open door if 189 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 1: he really was a fascist or somebody who wanted to 190 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:29,960 Speaker 1: be an authoritarian, an enormous or open door. You know. 191 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:32,199 Speaker 1: The only people who were walking through that door and 192 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 1: being little petty tyrants are Democrats, no surprise, but they 193 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 1: were saying that Trump was a fascist and a tyrant 194 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 1: and all these horrible things when the country was doing 195 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 1: so well and everything was pretty much on track. It 196 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: wasn't perfect. Yeah, we got problems, of course, right, I'm 197 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 1: not crazy. All. I remember all that stuff about the 198 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,439 Speaker 1: border and the border surge and how do we get control. 199 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,200 Speaker 1: Democrats were lying about that. Of course, Oh, they're just 200 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,960 Speaker 1: going for a thing because they need asylum. No, they 201 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 1: just wanted to cheat the system and coming to the country. 202 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 1: But those were the challenges we were dealing with before. Now, 203 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:08,440 Speaker 1: I mean, you're looking at a death toll that's going 204 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:11,439 Speaker 1: to be between one hundred and fifty and two hundred 205 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 1: thousand come election day, and the Democrat left instead of 206 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 1: looking at what's going on around the whole world and 207 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:19,680 Speaker 1: the fact that there have been a lot of deaths 208 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 1: from this disease, and this is it's a very it's 209 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 1: a tragic and terrible circumstance that there is this pandemic 210 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,439 Speaker 1: that is a global phenomenon. Instead of saying this was 211 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,719 Speaker 1: a challenge that hit us akin to similar to a 212 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 1: natural disaster like a massive earthquake or a tsunami or 213 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 1: something like that, they're they're going to put the blame 214 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: squarely on Trump's shoulders and Trump's supporters. They're going to 215 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:51,839 Speaker 1: say they're already convinced of this, that the reason people 216 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:53,959 Speaker 1: have died from COVID nineteen is not that it is 217 00:13:54,000 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 1: a highly infectious and very dangerous virus or dangerous to 218 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 1: people of a certain age with certain comorbidities. That's the 219 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: real danger zone. But instead of viewing it that way, 220 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 1: they're going to view it as every single death, every 221 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:17,000 Speaker 1: lost life from this disease can be attributed to Trump 222 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 1: and the supporters that put him in office. That's the plan. 223 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 1: Of course, that's unfair, it's immoral, it's crazy, But they 224 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 1: don't care. This is what they're going to do. I'm 225 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 1: telling you, I've predicted the Democrats moves for months, and 226 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 1: you know that. I've been telling you. We're gaming out 227 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 1: what their next plan is. I told you would get 228 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 1: to lockdown two point zero. I've told you that they 229 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: were going to say that there was no danger from 230 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:47,440 Speaker 1: the protests, and then when enough time passed there like, yeah, 231 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 1: maybe there was a little bit of transmission from but 232 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 1: now we're way past that. Now the transmissions community spread. 233 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 1: So who cares that the protests did In fact, the 234 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: I mean the mayor of Los Angeles has said that 235 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 1: the protesters probably did, yeah, spread this. So let's all 236 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: be very clear right now about what is coming our 237 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 1: way and what we are facing you're in the freedom line. 238 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: This is the Buck Sex and Show podcast. President Trump's 239 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 1: total hostility towards science, evidence, facts, logic, reason. He is 240 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 1: a showman. He is a reality TV star. He likes 241 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 1: to try to bend reality to suit his own preferences. 242 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 1: He had really made it clear that he was more 243 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 1: interested in the optics than the facts when the virus 244 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: first hit, and he kept saying, you know, we have 245 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 1: fifteen cases. It'll be over soon. So you've got to 246 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 1: begin and end with His total lack of leadership is 247 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 1: indifference toward what this virus has cost us, not only 248 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 1: in lives, in jobs and livelihoods. And now of course 249 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 1: he doesn't want to hear from our leading infectious disease 250 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 1: experts like doctor Fauci. He doesn't want to hold the 251 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 1: even the sham of the meetings that he used to 252 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 1: hold to try to talk about it. He's he's helping 253 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 1: that it either goes away or it leaves our attentions fans, 254 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 1: so that he can get back to be president. Good God, 255 00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 1: too much. Hillary, Sorry about that team, But here she 256 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 1: is telling you you could say what happened? Remember she 257 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 1: was gonna be president the United States. Everybody and Now 258 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 1: she's all, Donald Trump doesn't have leadership. I should have 259 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 1: been the leader. Oh it's horrible. I know it hurts 260 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 1: your ears, it hurts my ears. But that's it's really 261 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 1: the most true, most true to the essence of Hillary 262 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 1: impression you could ever do. It's just all off putting 263 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 1: and screechy and awful. But yes, that's right, she's telling 264 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 1: you exactly what I said. The Democrats will continue to say, 265 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 1: which the Donald Trump's lack of leadership has cost us 266 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 1: lives and jobs. Meanwhile, let's look at the choices that 267 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:14,880 Speaker 1: the president made about the virus. He handed over the 268 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:19,880 Speaker 1: policy essentially to Burkes and Fauci, so they're not listening 269 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 1: to the experts thing it's just a lie. He shut 270 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 1: down flights from China, which now everyone who looked at 271 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 1: this admits, well, that was a good idea. It wasn't perfect, 272 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 1: it didn't stop everything, obviously, but it was a good idea, 273 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 1: and he was heavily criticized for that. And that was 274 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 1: an early decision. They said we were gonna run out 275 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:39,880 Speaker 1: of ventilators, used the Defense Production Act Bam, lots of ventilators, 276 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:41,880 Speaker 1: more ventilators than we need. Turns out, ventily is aren't 277 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 1: even a very good way to treat the disease. It's 278 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,879 Speaker 1: a really very much a last stitch effort. But they 279 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,400 Speaker 1: said we're gonna run on a PPE Defense Production Act. Nope, 280 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:55,720 Speaker 1: we didn't run out a PPE. And then they said 281 00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:57,440 Speaker 1: that Trump was going to be a tyrant by telling 282 00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,880 Speaker 1: states what to do. No, he said, the CDC's guide 283 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:03,120 Speaker 1: is as follows. It's up to states. When they reopened, 284 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 1: what do they oh? Because he said that this was 285 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:10,440 Speaker 1: gonna go away or he was hopeful about hydroxy chloroquin. 286 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 1: Once again we see that liberals talk as though Trump 287 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:19,399 Speaker 1: has made catastrophic decisions when really and this has been 288 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 1: their problem, this has been their psychosis. So along he 289 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 1: has said things that upset them, which they take to 290 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:32,120 Speaker 1: be catastrophic, but which had no meaning, doesn't mean anything. 291 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 1: The President says, you know, yeah, hopefully it's gonna go away. Okay, 292 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 1: that was then, and then he took a lot of that. 293 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:41,639 Speaker 1: We saw what was happening. I mean, the president doesn't know. 294 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 1: Fauci was saying it was no big deal too. I 295 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 1: mean they're just hoping that you don't ever look and 296 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 1: do the research and figure out what a bunch of liars. 297 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 1: The libs are thanks for listening to the buses and 298 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 1: show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeartRadio app, 299 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:02,600 Speaker 1: or wherever you get your podcast. I think it is 300 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 1: a fair point to raise as to whether or not 301 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 1: if he loses, she's going to go quietly or not, 302 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 1: and we have to be ready for that. I come on, 303 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 1: this woman wanted to be present the United States. She's 304 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 1: supposed to be serious. Hello, here's Hilarie Clinton saying that Trump, 305 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 1: if he loses, may not peacefully leave the White House. 306 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 1: These people are insane. This is not reasonable or rational 307 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 1: at all. They said that he was a fascist, he 308 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 1: was an authoritarian. People were making all these allusions to 309 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:45,160 Speaker 1: the Third Reich when Trump won in twenty sixteen, and 310 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 1: you have a pandemic where he could be an absolute 311 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 1: iron fisted because look at what people are doing in 312 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:55,400 Speaker 1: different states, Democrat governors and even some Republican governors these days. 313 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:58,880 Speaker 1: But no Trump has said, Okay, we're gonna we're gonna 314 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 1: work on this. We're gonna work with the I would 315 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:02,639 Speaker 1: seck there. We're going to have you know, committees and 316 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 1: talk to different states and give them funding and work 317 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 1: with CDC, nothing fascistic about it. In fact, if anything, 318 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 1: he might have been a little bit too much of 319 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 1: a of a soft touch on dealing with these different issues. 320 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 1: He might have benefited from being a little bit more 321 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 1: hardline in his approach to you know, for example, the 322 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 1: speed of reopen or whatever the specific dispute may be. 323 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 1: But they haven't. The Democrats haven't recalibrated any of the 324 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:36,359 Speaker 1: talking points, they haven't changed any of their initial set 325 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 1: of hysterical analyzes. And Hillary is just another example of 326 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:46,120 Speaker 1: this with her, Oh he may not leave the When 327 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 1: is that? When? What you could say? This is without evidence? 328 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:53,720 Speaker 1: That's one of the Democrat's favorite snide little phrases. What 329 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 1: with what evidence is there at all? Their zero? And 330 00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:01,240 Speaker 1: so why do they say this? Why do they do this? Well, 331 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 1: because it goes to that part of the liberal brain 332 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:09,359 Speaker 1: that has been so polluted with anti Trump propaganda that 333 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:12,680 Speaker 1: there's nothing that they can say about him that it's 334 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 1: too extreme to believe. Remember, they've called him a traitor 335 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:23,680 Speaker 1: for years now, without evidence, call him a trader, be 336 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:27,159 Speaker 1: trade his country, such a bad guy. What are the 337 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 1: horrible things that Trump has done in office? I love 338 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:33,679 Speaker 1: asking liberals this and theyllwist turn to some remember what 339 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: he said about the Charlottesville It's like, that's a lie. 340 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 1: Stop lying. He didn't say the neo Nazis were good. 341 00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 1: I've read the transcript dozens of times now, it's obvious 342 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 1: what he said. He clarified it. That's a lot, But 343 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 1: that's one of their first go to because Libs are 344 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:53,639 Speaker 1: used to arguing from this cheap virtue position all the 345 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 1: time of oh, well, I'm the good person and they're 346 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,160 Speaker 1: the bad person. So it doesn't matter what they actual 347 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,719 Speaker 1: argument or issue is. You know, I'm a supporter of 348 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:06,480 Speaker 1: BLM and they are not. Therefore I'm a better human 349 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:08,919 Speaker 1: being than those Republicans. This is what they do with 350 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 1: everything all the time. It's never about the issue. It's 351 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 1: always about they're just superior. Their side is so smart. 352 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:19,119 Speaker 1: That's always an amazing one to me too, right, their 353 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:22,679 Speaker 1: side is so smart. Meanwhile, if you're dependent on the state, 354 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 1: if you're effectively award of the state, you vote Democrat. 355 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 1: And if you're an ultra elite billionaire, chances are you 356 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: will also be a Democrat. You know, there's a wide 357 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 1: swath of ideological proclivities and of individual situations that the 358 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 1: Democrat Party encompasses and what it doesn't include people that 359 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 1: see things for what they are, just want to live 360 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 1: their lives, make as many decisions for themselves as they can, 361 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,960 Speaker 1: and just be left the heck alone. That's the kryptonite 362 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 1: to liberalism, which is of course the worst word ever 363 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,840 Speaker 1: for it, because as they're anti liberal, but conservatives not 364 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,359 Speaker 1: only have we ceded institutions and this is a this 365 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:08,919 Speaker 1: is a major complaint of mine, and I know I 366 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,520 Speaker 1: complain about it in the hopes that this will just 367 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:13,640 Speaker 1: catch on more and we will think about this more. 368 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:17,119 Speaker 1: And my friends in conservative media, I think we need 369 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 1: a better name even for usselves sometimes or better shorthand 370 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:25,120 Speaker 1: phrases than just calling ourselves conservatives. I'm okay with right wing. 371 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:28,160 Speaker 1: I don't see what the problem is with that, but uh, there, 372 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 1: we need better language to use in these debates. We 373 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:34,679 Speaker 1: need a better term for you know, what is the 374 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 1: word that brings together BLM activists and ANTIFA lunatics and 375 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 1: statue toppling, you know, mediocre PhD students like what brings 376 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:51,399 Speaker 1: them all? Yeah? The left? But that's very broad. We 377 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:55,119 Speaker 1: need better terms. Liberal is a misnomer, an intentional misnomer 378 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 1: the same way that Black lives Matter is the name 379 00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 1: of the group, So that if you challenge the groups 380 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:04,440 Speaker 1: policy positions, there's the implication of racial animus, because are 381 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 1: you saying you don't agree that black lives matter? I mean, 382 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 1: this is it's it's a cheap trick, but it works. Right, 383 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:15,400 Speaker 1: do you support black lives matter? You better say yes 384 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:19,439 Speaker 1: to that, right, even though, of course black lives matter. 385 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 1: But are we talking about the group? Are we talking 386 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:26,680 Speaker 1: about the phrase? This is? This is how the left 387 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 1: argues the same thing they do with Do you believe 388 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:34,200 Speaker 1: in climate change? Of course I believe in climate change. 389 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 1: Climate's always changing. What kind of Oh? No, do I 390 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,119 Speaker 1: think that we should put morons like AOC in charge 391 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:44,120 Speaker 1: of reordering trillions of dollars at the economy and putting 392 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:48,440 Speaker 1: endless government commissions and bureaucrats in control of every aspect 393 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:50,400 Speaker 1: of your life down the manusha down to the minutia 394 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:52,639 Speaker 1: of the light bulbs in your house, what you're eating, 395 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 1: how you deal with your waste. No, no, I do 396 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,359 Speaker 1: not agree with that. Right. So the same have the 397 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:03,120 Speaker 1: same problem with calling them liberals. They are anti liberal. 398 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:07,359 Speaker 1: But to be constantly talking about the liberals assault on 399 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 1: liberty creates a cognitive dissonance just the language we use. 400 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:15,719 Speaker 1: And this really matters. You go back and read Orwell's 401 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:20,919 Speaker 1: Orwell's essays on politics and the English language, and he 402 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 1: knew that this is this is a critical part of 403 00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:26,199 Speaker 1: the battle of ideas. What words do we have to use? 404 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:29,880 Speaker 1: Why are they always trying to force us to say? Undocumented? 405 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:34,520 Speaker 1: Undocumented is so easy? Right, that's there's no law breaking there. 406 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:38,120 Speaker 1: You're just let's just give them some documents. Illegal alien 407 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:40,880 Speaker 1: sounds like somebody that shouldn't be doing what they're doing. 408 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 1: It's illegal, and an alien is something foreign. But no, no, undocumented, 409 00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:48,399 Speaker 1: Let's just give them some documents. Right. You see endless 410 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 1: examples of this. But Hillary, Hillary, Hillary, There's nothing that 411 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:58,399 Speaker 1: can be said by Hillary or any of the Democrats 412 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:00,680 Speaker 1: that will be considered beyond the pale about this president. 413 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 1: They will go to absolute extremes and they will lie 414 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,200 Speaker 1: right to your face, right to America's face, about all 415 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 1: of this. Think about what they've been willing to say 416 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,119 Speaker 1: when the country was doing well, and now now the 417 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 1: country is in trouble. It's not the end. I mean, 418 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:25,600 Speaker 1: if Democrats win, maybe, but you know, well, well, we 419 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:32,439 Speaker 1: will get through this. But the ferocity that has built 420 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:39,879 Speaker 1: up in the leftist mind from years now of what 421 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 1: they view is having to suffer under Trump. This is 422 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 1: a major issue. This is a major concern. We're all 423 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 1: gonna have to deal with. The psychosis, damn is breaking. 424 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,440 Speaker 1: They're going to come at us with so much. And 425 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 1: people that you thought were reasonable, who were in the 426 00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:01,400 Speaker 1: media before, people that that you thought we're maybe willing 427 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 1: to be fair minded sometimes are just going to sound 428 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:10,920 Speaker 1: like the most extreme huff Post do as I say, 429 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 1: or you're a racist ibologue, imaginable. You're going to see 430 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 1: this happening all over the place, and it's going to 431 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:22,359 Speaker 1: be a very disconcerting to anybody who hoped for a 432 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:24,879 Speaker 1: better future for this country. Oh and you're going to 433 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 1: have people weighing in, like Susan Rice on why Trump 434 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:33,119 Speaker 1: is such a bad guy, because now we're thinking about 435 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 1: we're being told at least that Susan Rice may become 436 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:42,359 Speaker 1: Joe Biden's vice president based on what Susan Rice. You know, 437 00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:44,920 Speaker 1: And I guess we've reached this point too in politics, 438 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,439 Speaker 1: where it's just all about the narrative that can be 439 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:51,120 Speaker 1: forced upon people. It's not really about accomplishment or ability 440 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,879 Speaker 1: or leadership, certainly off of the Democrats. And look, I 441 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:56,320 Speaker 1: got a lot of nasty words for Republicans these days too. 442 00:27:56,359 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 1: Republicans are asleep at the wheel, not getting it done. 443 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:03,399 Speaker 1: Where is the Republican Party? How much different would the 444 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 1: country really be right now if Republicans didn't exist? It's 445 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:10,239 Speaker 1: worth asking the question. I mean the Republican Party, not 446 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:13,680 Speaker 1: people who are conservative in their ideology, but how different 447 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 1: would the country be if the Republican Party's like, yeah, 448 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:18,680 Speaker 1: we're just gonna vote present. It's kind of what they're doing. 449 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 1: They're just showing up voting present. So you're going to 450 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:27,240 Speaker 1: have people like Susan Rice who are just repeating the 451 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 1: most mindless talking points. But if you hear it enough, 452 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 1: maybe for you and me, it doesn't have any effect. 453 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:36,160 Speaker 1: For a lot of people who are frustrated, who are scared, 454 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 1: who don't know what the future holds, given what the 455 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 1: country's going through right now, they hear enough of this 456 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 1: and they're going to think, maybe we just need something else. 457 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 1: How bad can Joe Biden really be? Guy's been in 458 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:52,120 Speaker 1: politics for longer than I've been alive. How bad can 459 00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 1: this really be? Well, pretty bad. But here's Susan Rice 460 00:28:55,880 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 1: play four, and he shouldn't respect the science and respect 461 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 1: the experts, stop assailing people like Tony Faunci put them 462 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: in the lead. The reality is that this is not 463 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 1: an pandemic that we can wish away. The President Trump 464 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,120 Speaker 1: was cheerleading the reopening of the economy. It proved to 465 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 1: be deadly premature, and that's why we're seeing in the 466 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: South and the West some of the first states to 467 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 1: reopen these extraordinary resurgence. We cannot do as the President 468 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:30,880 Speaker 1: Trump is doing and play politics with and be willing 469 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:35,000 Speaker 1: to sacrifice the lives of our children and their teachers. 470 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 1: So we need to get the testing ramped up even further. 471 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 1: We need to get the contact tracing sorted out. We 472 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 1: need to restore some of the restrictions that were put 473 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:50,000 Speaker 1: in place early on and lifted prematurely, as California has 474 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 1: just done everything. She says here, let's think through for 475 00:29:54,640 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 1: a second. Okay, this is moronic. We're testing would do 476 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:04,920 Speaker 1: what exactly? We're testing more than we've ever done before, 477 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 1: and you know we're finding out we're catching about, uh, 478 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:12,800 Speaker 1: you know, ten percent of the actual cases that are 479 00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 1: that are new every day, So we're gonna do ten 480 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 1: times as much testing. People are getting sick all over 481 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 1: the getting this disease all over the place, in California 482 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:24,880 Speaker 1: and Texas and Arizona and Florida. Recently. You know how 483 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 1: many deaths were in Florida with you know, fifteen thousand 484 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 1: cases in a day or whatever. It was thirty I 485 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:35,360 Speaker 1: think it was thirty four. You know, these are this 486 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 1: is still a manageable situation. But what she tells us 487 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 1: is listen to the science. That's a stupid slogan. What 488 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 1: does the science tell us testing testing, testing, This is meaningless. 489 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:51,280 Speaker 1: The disease is spreading. You can have testing all over 490 00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 1: the place and we do, and people will still get 491 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:58,480 Speaker 1: the disease because it is at widespread levels. It's all 492 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:03,160 Speaker 1: over the country, it's all over the world. Yeah, we'd 493 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 1: know a little bit more, we'd have a little more 494 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:06,920 Speaker 1: data on where some of the hot spots work. Guess 495 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 1: what we already know where the hot spots are. Testing 496 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 1: is not a cure. They act like testing is a vaccination. Oh, 497 00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:16,400 Speaker 1: just got enough people tested it and everything's gonna be fine. No, 498 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 1: And then the tracing thing that she even says that 499 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:22,720 Speaker 1: that's laughable. You're gonna trace this right now? A lot 500 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 1: of people are waiting. I am a friend who just 501 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 1: got tested and waited a week for results. So unless 502 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:32,840 Speaker 1: we're going to get everybody to have fifteen minute tests, 503 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:36,760 Speaker 1: how are we ever going to have a tracing system. 504 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 1: The only way a tracing system is going to work 505 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 1: is at the virus level went down to effectively zero, 506 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:43,880 Speaker 1: and then it was at such low levels of spread, 507 00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 1: and you would have to have people in place and 508 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,720 Speaker 1: ready to go and be efficient and be pretty lucky 509 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:51,840 Speaker 1: to trace it and to try to contain it before 510 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:56,120 Speaker 1: it's already spread all over the place. There's no tracing this. 511 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,320 Speaker 1: So when they say things like keys to listen to 512 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:00,959 Speaker 1: the science, more testing and we need to get our 513 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:06,600 Speaker 1: tracing squared away, bull crap. This is just noise. This 514 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:11,400 Speaker 1: is meaningless. But this is what you're just gonna hear 515 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 1: more and more the think it through. Okay, we're gonna 516 00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 1: we're gonna do. What What is testing gonna do for us? 517 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,719 Speaker 1: Beyond what we are? We're already testing. All I hear 518 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 1: about this all the time. We're already testing. We're seeing 519 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:25,640 Speaker 1: record levels of testing. If we doubled the testing, what 520 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 1: would that mean we have more test on it's just 521 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 1: that they have no real answers on this. Oh, and 522 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:37,960 Speaker 1: then more restrictions, the the policy tests and trace. All 523 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:42,640 Speaker 1: of this was never about shut down the country until 524 00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:46,920 Speaker 1: the virus is gone. That was never offered to us. 525 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:50,240 Speaker 1: That was never the bargain we were told. It was 526 00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:53,440 Speaker 1: about hospital capacity. And now you have people who keep 527 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 1: coming forward to say, listen to the science. There are 528 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 1: too many cases. Lockdown again. Okay, you go into restrictions, 529 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:02,480 Speaker 1: tell people this, stay home, no indoor activities, but the 530 00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 1: virus is still out there. When you start doing things again, 531 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:10,480 Speaker 1: the virus will return to a level of spread. And 532 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:15,040 Speaker 1: we cannot have a functioning society that keeps locking down 533 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 1: for a virus that kills less than one tenth of 534 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 1: one percent of people who get it, which when you 535 00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,080 Speaker 1: look at the real numbers, eventually it's probably gonna be 536 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:31,760 Speaker 1: you know, point one, maybe point three or four percent 537 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 1: fatality rate. You can't keep locking down America over this. Oh, 538 00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 1: but they pretend like they have answers. These people are 539 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:43,920 Speaker 1: They look the shameless demagogues, and they're ruining the country 540 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 1: right now. They're ruining it. You're in the freedom hunt 541 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 1: this is the Buck Sex and Show podcast. And when 542 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 1: you test, you create cases. So we've created cases. I 543 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 1: can you. Some countries they test when somebody walks into 544 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:05,800 Speaker 1: a hospital sick, or walks into maybe a doctor's office, 545 00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:08,719 Speaker 1: but usually a hospital. That's the testing they do, so 546 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:11,839 Speaker 1: they don't have cases, whereas we do. We have all 547 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,919 Speaker 1: of these cases. So you know, it's a double edged short. 548 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:17,880 Speaker 1: At the same time, we have the lowest mortality or 549 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 1: just about the lowest mortality in the world. We're doing 550 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 1: a great job. We're doing very well with vaccines, and 551 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:27,319 Speaker 1: we're doing very very well with therapeutics, and I think 552 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 1: we're gonna have some very good information coming out soon. 553 00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 1: But we have the best and certainly the biggest, by far, 554 00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:37,600 Speaker 1: the biggest testing program anywhere in the world. We do 555 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 1: have the biggest testing program, and we still have all 556 00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:42,799 Speaker 1: this criticism from people about how there's not enough, there's 557 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 1: never enough testing, there's never gonna be enough testing. This 558 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 1: this is the way, because this is it's like the 559 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:49,640 Speaker 1: theoretical how do you ever get to the place where 560 00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:51,560 Speaker 1: there's enough testing? Were never there? So let's just complain 561 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:54,520 Speaker 1: about it constantly. Look some of what Trump said, there 562 00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:57,960 Speaker 1: is a little off by the facts, but he's right 563 00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 1: on the broadside since but yeah, I know we're not. 564 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:03,680 Speaker 1: We don't have the lowest mortality in the world compared 565 00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:07,719 Speaker 1: to some smaller countries in New Zealand and Japan, and 566 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:10,759 Speaker 1: Japan's not a small country, but there are there are 567 00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:13,520 Speaker 1: countries out there that have done better than us when 568 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:16,640 Speaker 1: it comes to per capita mortality against this virus. But 569 00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:19,880 Speaker 1: what he's referring to is that compared to the societies 570 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:25,839 Speaker 1: that are of comparable size, complexity, diversity, you know, international 571 00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 1: travel hub, etc. To the United States, You're looking at 572 00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:36,880 Speaker 1: large Western European countries and you have the US beating Italy, Spain, 573 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:42,280 Speaker 1: the UK, every large European country on a per capita 574 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 1: basis except for Germany. France better than France. So you know, 575 00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:50,480 Speaker 1: it's it's not like America is the one place that's 576 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:53,759 Speaker 1: been hit really hard by this. But that is the 577 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:57,760 Speaker 1: lie the Democrats lean into and just will not stop 578 00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:00,879 Speaker 1: telling it, And now that is going to turn into 579 00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 1: a giant battle over schools.

Teachers unions, 582 00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:18,120 Speaker 1: you may have figured out at this point, I'm not 583 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,960 Speaker 1: a fan. I'm not a fan of any public sector 584 00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,640 Speaker 1: union quite honestly. I mean, I could be persuaded that 585 00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 1: cops and firefighters need them, but not civil servants, not 586 00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:36,719 Speaker 1: you know, bureaucrats working in state capitals, people that are 587 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:42,520 Speaker 1: teaching kids in public schools. I just I'm not signing 588 00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:46,040 Speaker 1: on for that. But unfortunately, that's the reality of the 589 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:49,080 Speaker 1: education system in this country. You have a massive, bloated 590 00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:55,400 Speaker 1: and highly ineffective on the whole public school system that 591 00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:58,480 Speaker 1: is largely a jobs program for adults and at best 592 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:04,040 Speaker 1: a babysitting program for kids in failing schools. But the 593 00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 1: LA if you want to know what this is really 594 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,480 Speaker 1: all about, Yes, it's true. And it's obvious that the 595 00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:13,520 Speaker 1: shutdowns of schools in places. Los Angeles County has already 596 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:16,319 Speaker 1: said no, not gonna, not gonna open schools in the fall. 597 00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:20,719 Speaker 1: They've already said that that's their position as it now. 598 00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:24,359 Speaker 1: Now that could change, But when you look at what's 599 00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:26,319 Speaker 1: being talked about, hold on, I thought this was just 600 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:32,640 Speaker 1: about safety. I thought this was just about making sure 601 00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:36,240 Speaker 1: that everyone's okay in the classroom. Oh No, it turns 602 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:38,319 Speaker 1: out it had to the Daily Caller for this one. 603 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:42,719 Speaker 1: The United Teachers Los Angeles union has called for the 604 00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:49,799 Speaker 1: defunding of police, a moratorium on new charter schools, new 605 00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:55,680 Speaker 1: wealth taxes on California's millionaires and billionaires, and Medicare for 606 00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:59,920 Speaker 1: all at the federal level. In a research paper issue 607 00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:04,240 Speaker 1: on Thursday, It's time to take a stand against Trump's 608 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:09,200 Speaker 1: dangerous anti science agenda that puts the lives of our members, 609 00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:13,400 Speaker 1: our students, and our families at risk, said United Teachers 610 00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:20,919 Speaker 1: Los Angeles president Cecily my Art Cruise. Yeah, there you go. There. 611 00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:23,920 Speaker 1: I got a paper here that says that the reopening 612 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 1: of school should be conditioned upon the passage of Medicare 613 00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:29,239 Speaker 1: for all at the federal level, along with all that 614 00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 1: other stuff. Wait, wait a second. I thought teachers unions 615 00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:33,799 Speaker 1: just wanted to teach man. I thought they were all 616 00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:37,040 Speaker 1: about the kids. I thought this was just about getting 617 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:40,320 Speaker 1: the classroom safely to open up the wonders of the 618 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 1: children's minds to the great literature of And there's this. 619 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:48,719 Speaker 1: There's a whole other conversation that we should have and 620 00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:52,600 Speaker 1: we'll have sometimes about what constitutes great literature or literature 621 00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:56,879 Speaker 1: worthy of teaching children anymore. From what I understand from 622 00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:58,719 Speaker 1: a friend of mine who is a public school teacher 623 00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:01,480 Speaker 1: in New York, there's a there are a whole series 624 00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 1: of books, and I have not read them, and so 625 00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:07,080 Speaker 1: I'm not deeply familiar with them that go into um, 626 00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:12,319 Speaker 1: shall we say, stories that would be more familiar in 627 00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:19,319 Speaker 1: high crime and largely minority neighborhoods, instead of you know, 628 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:23,440 Speaker 1: reading Charlotte's Web or you know, other books that many 629 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:25,440 Speaker 1: of us were would be familiar with from the what 630 00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 1: had been considered, you know, Catcher in the Rye, Right, 631 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:30,759 Speaker 1: I don't know things like that. No, no, no, Now 632 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,920 Speaker 1: they're reading books about guys who are This is what 633 00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:37,040 Speaker 1: I this is what I was told, guys who you know, 634 00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:39,880 Speaker 1: don't have like like a guy who comes home doesn't 635 00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:42,520 Speaker 1: have a mom or dad, you know, living with his grandma. 636 00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:44,960 Speaker 1: They're drug dealers on the corner at all. And I 637 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 1: understand maybe they're trying to do this outreach of familiarity 638 00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:55,319 Speaker 1: of under certain circumstances. But I thought that great art 639 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:59,520 Speaker 1: and great literature was something that all people. It's it's 640 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:01,800 Speaker 1: our all of our inheritance, right, It's something we should 641 00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:04,359 Speaker 1: all agree on, and what they teach in schools increasingly 642 00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:11,239 Speaker 1: seems more overtly like political indoctrinations. That's what I hear. 643 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:13,560 Speaker 1: And everyone that I know who teaches at a private 644 00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:15,800 Speaker 1: school leaven in New York, and there's some very fancy 645 00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 1: private schools here, they will say the schools have just 646 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:22,600 Speaker 1: become the administrations are very liberal, because what you have, 647 00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,319 Speaker 1: even in the private school system now are all these 648 00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:30,560 Speaker 1: ultra rich Democrats who send their kids to these schools 649 00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:37,319 Speaker 1: that are very homogeneous racially, and they send their kids 650 00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:39,600 Speaker 1: to these schools, but they want at least the administration 651 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:45,560 Speaker 1: to reflect the most progressive approaches because then they feel like, 652 00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:49,000 Speaker 1: you know, oh well, yes, we send little Timothy to 653 00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:52,160 Speaker 1: our fifty thousand dollars a year first grade. Which that's 654 00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:53,799 Speaker 1: a real thing that exists in New York for those 655 00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 1: of you who are wondering, it's plenty of schools fifty 656 00:40:56,560 --> 00:41:03,320 Speaker 1: grand for grammar school year. Yes, we sent little Timothy 657 00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:06,319 Speaker 1: to that school. But at least the headmaster put out 658 00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:10,319 Speaker 1: a strong statement in favor of black lives matter. Oh well, 659 00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:14,279 Speaker 1: then in that case, everything's fine. In that case, you know, 660 00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:16,879 Speaker 1: come on, you've done your part for social justice. You're good, 661 00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:19,640 Speaker 1: you know, give yourself a palament back when you take 662 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:23,160 Speaker 1: a helicopter out to your beachfront mansion in the Hamptons. 663 00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:30,440 Speaker 1: That's very, very nice. Pelosi is California. Of course, Pelosi 664 00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:34,200 Speaker 1: weighs in on this as well, and she wants to 665 00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:37,960 Speaker 1: help the teachers unions hold schools and the education of 666 00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:41,000 Speaker 1: these children hostage to whatever the demands the Democratic Party 667 00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:45,879 Speaker 1: are Play clip six. So all of these things are 668 00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 1: related to the safety of our children going back. Is 669 00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:53,440 Speaker 1: it hybrid, is it virtual? Is it actual? Well, let's 670 00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:57,640 Speaker 1: get given it our best shot. Putting our children first, 671 00:41:58,040 --> 00:42:01,120 Speaker 1: we know what we need to do. The Republicans have 672 00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:05,759 Speaker 1: resisted the Hero's Act and impartially because they don't want 673 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:08,640 Speaker 1: to support the state and local government, which is essential 674 00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:11,760 Speaker 1: to the safety of our children going back to school 675 00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:16,200 Speaker 1: as well. The resources are there, but to make a decision. 676 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:20,759 Speaker 1: I mean, Pelosi is so shameless that I almost I'm 677 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:25,719 Speaker 1: almost in awe of her shamelessness. Sometimes here's someone who 678 00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:30,120 Speaker 1: has been nothing but unhelpful at every stage, who delayed 679 00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 1: you recall twice votes to get money to people who 680 00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 1: no longer had jobs, no longer had businesses to operate 681 00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 1: because of government mandate. That's not the free market. That's 682 00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:46,239 Speaker 1: the government's fault. That's the government's decision right to shut 683 00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:48,440 Speaker 1: down your business to mean that make it so that 684 00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:52,240 Speaker 1: you don't no longer have a job. And now Pelosi 685 00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:55,680 Speaker 1: is trying to leverage this for the maximum. Look, there's 686 00:42:56,320 --> 00:43:00,480 Speaker 1: a very a very clear process at work here. They're 687 00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:06,040 Speaker 1: using the school issue as really a proxy for shutdown, 688 00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:09,800 Speaker 1: for the feeling at least of the country in shutdown 689 00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:13,280 Speaker 1: going into the election season, and if they get schools 690 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:16,640 Speaker 1: shut down, they feel like it's gonna be very hard. 691 00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:19,440 Speaker 1: It's gonna be very hard for Trump to win, because 692 00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:21,160 Speaker 1: how can you tell people you're better off now than 693 00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:22,799 Speaker 1: you were four years ago when your kids can't even 694 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:26,880 Speaker 1: be in school. That's it. That's that's really the game 695 00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:31,480 Speaker 1: that is being played. It's very damaging, it's ruthless, and 696 00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:35,360 Speaker 1: it's a it's a shame that the politics of this 697 00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:40,439 Speaker 1: have gotten so ugly. But that's where this is. You're 698 00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:43,160 Speaker 1: in the freedom hunt. This is the Buck Sex and 699 00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:52,400 Speaker 1: Show podcast. If you think that Democrats being wrong is 700 00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:57,439 Speaker 1: ever an impediment to their power grabs, If you think 701 00:43:57,480 --> 00:44:02,560 Speaker 1: that democrats making RMIs errors of judgment based on the 702 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:08,799 Speaker 1: results would at least result in some accountability. Unfortunately, you'd 703 00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:13,880 Speaker 1: be wrong, especially in states that have become political monocultures 704 00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:17,200 Speaker 1: like New York, where I am currently doing this show. 705 00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:18,719 Speaker 1: Of course, I'm doing it for many of you all 706 00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:26,760 Speaker 1: across the country. Governor Cuomo. Governor Cuomo, who is one 707 00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:31,719 Speaker 1: of the most shameless, ruthless politicians I've ever seen in 708 00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:37,560 Speaker 1: my life. He likes to do the press conference where 709 00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:43,000 Speaker 1: he has this kind of rhythm. Okay, next slide, New York, 710 00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:47,160 Speaker 1: give yourself a pat on the back because we did 711 00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:48,879 Speaker 1: such a good job. We don't even buy a good job. 712 00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:52,560 Speaker 1: A good job is whatever I say it is, and 713 00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:57,080 Speaker 1: so stop asking questions. But he put out his own 714 00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:05,760 Speaker 1: state authorities put out a report on the nursing home, 715 00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:10,680 Speaker 1: really the nursing home massacre that Cuomo is as a 716 00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:16,440 Speaker 1: matter of direct policy and decision making responsible for. He 717 00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 1: put out this report that exonerated him. You know, just 718 00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:25,040 Speaker 1: a nurse totally an os Cuomo's fault, federal government's fault 719 00:45:25,080 --> 00:45:28,520 Speaker 1: of anything. This has become that this is the escape 720 00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:32,520 Speaker 1: hatch for every stupid Democrat decision that has been made 721 00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:36,200 Speaker 1: during the COVID pandemic. It's blamed the federal government. Blame Trump. 722 00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:40,920 Speaker 1: That's what they really mean, Blame Trump. And when when 723 00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:44,720 Speaker 1: you have thousands of nursing home deaths. And in March 724 00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:50,319 Speaker 1: twenty fifth order that said that that coronavirus patients coming 725 00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:53,239 Speaker 1: out of hospitals from nursing homes have to go back 726 00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:57,920 Speaker 1: into nursing homes. And this was because of the greatly exaggerated, 727 00:45:57,920 --> 00:45:59,360 Speaker 1: as we now know, fear that they were going to 728 00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:01,680 Speaker 1: run out of spittal bed, which was never even close. 729 00:46:03,400 --> 00:46:07,919 Speaker 1: And Cuomo puts out this report that says, quote, eighty 730 00:46:07,920 --> 00:46:10,879 Speaker 1: percent of three nursing homes in the state that took 731 00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:16,560 Speaker 1: coronavirus patients already had patients before Cuomo issued his order. Okay, 732 00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:22,840 Speaker 1: what about the other twenty percent? Anyone want to guess 733 00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:28,400 Speaker 1: what happened there? What could be more straightforward? Coronavirus is 734 00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:34,880 Speaker 1: particularly lethal, particularly dangerous to elderly people. Period. All the 735 00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:39,680 Speaker 1: data in every country, in every circumstance suggests that you 736 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:42,000 Speaker 1: add a layer of danger on top of that for 737 00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:48,799 Speaker 1: those who have diabetes, heart conditions, breathing issues, comorbidities, obesity. 738 00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:55,600 Speaker 1: We know that's a that's just established fact. And how 739 00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:58,680 Speaker 1: could it be more obvious that there was a mistake 740 00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:02,640 Speaker 1: made here than the Cuomo sent people who are already 741 00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:06,640 Speaker 1: at high risk from the disease themselves, who likely had it, 742 00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:11,080 Speaker 1: and sent them back into nursing homes where they were 743 00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:17,160 Speaker 1: almost guaranteed to spread it to other varying at risk individuals. 744 00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:20,480 Speaker 1: And that's why, you know, I just want I just 745 00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:23,120 Speaker 1: want to hit the roof. I mean, I just lose 746 00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:26,160 Speaker 1: my mind when I'm seeing all this. Look at what 747 00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:34,040 Speaker 1: a good job Cuomo did versus the stats. Cuomo did 748 00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:36,920 Speaker 1: a terrible job. In New York, there's this former Obama 749 00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:41,520 Speaker 1: administration health you know, a health expert moron. I'm forgetting 750 00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:44,239 Speaker 1: the guy's name right now, but he's gone on a 751 00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:46,960 Speaker 1: few terrors on Twitter where you're saying New York shows 752 00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:51,800 Speaker 1: how it's done. New York lost thirty five thousand people dead, 753 00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:56,960 Speaker 1: California has lost about six thousand, Texas has lost you know, 754 00:47:57,040 --> 00:48:00,640 Speaker 1: three to four thousand, Florida something along those lines, about thousand. 755 00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:07,760 Speaker 1: New York lost thirty five thousand people, and quomost taking 756 00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:13,760 Speaker 1: a victory lap. I think about this and the media 757 00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:15,640 Speaker 1: is like, yeah, that's right, I Quota did a good job. 758 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:23,080 Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom has been a tyrant in California, and guess what, 759 00:48:23,320 --> 00:48:28,160 Speaker 1: now they're back into you know, a moderate lockdown phase 760 00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:31,959 Speaker 1: even though they've had all we made it, probably because 761 00:48:31,960 --> 00:48:34,600 Speaker 1: of the protest right, but no one wants to talk 762 00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:38,799 Speaker 1: about that. We have seen, particularly younger people have been 763 00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:40,880 Speaker 1: where the spread of this disease is. I know, younger 764 00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:43,920 Speaker 1: people also are more likely to congregate in bars and 765 00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:46,600 Speaker 1: you know, play flip cup and do all these things. 766 00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:49,279 Speaker 1: But I was never very good at flip cups. I'm 767 00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:51,200 Speaker 1: a little get a little bitter about that. Or what's 768 00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:58,560 Speaker 1: the other one, producer, Mark, what's the game? The beer pong? Yeah? Yeah, 769 00:48:58,600 --> 00:49:02,279 Speaker 1: beer pong? Thank you, thank you. We actually called it 770 00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:04,640 Speaker 1: something else in my college. But it's a weird name, 771 00:49:04,719 --> 00:49:06,120 Speaker 1: and no, I feel like no one ever used that 772 00:49:06,160 --> 00:49:10,160 Speaker 1: anymore anyway. Yeah, people are young people are more likely 773 00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:12,560 Speaker 1: to be in close quarters in those situations and possibly 774 00:49:12,600 --> 00:49:15,920 Speaker 1: give each other COVID, but they're in really close quarters. 775 00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:18,600 Speaker 1: I mean there's a photo of a protest in California 776 00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:22,719 Speaker 1: with just thousands and thousands and thousands of people in 777 00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:28,680 Speaker 1: such close proximity, just jammed in like sardines, and Newsom's like, yeah, 778 00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:31,040 Speaker 1: this is great, that's great. We were really doing a 779 00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:36,280 Speaker 1: great job here in California. These people are terrible. Producer. 780 00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:39,240 Speaker 1: Nick says Beyrout. Yeah, they used to call it Beyrout 781 00:49:39,320 --> 00:49:43,960 Speaker 1: in college, which I don't know that that's what they 782 00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:46,080 Speaker 1: used to call beer pong, And I mean, I think 783 00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:48,879 Speaker 1: it's because Beyrout had a long civil war and people were, 784 00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:50,839 Speaker 1: you know, a lot of artillery shells. Maybe I don't know, 785 00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:54,719 Speaker 1: but it was called by route. I think you there's 786 00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:57,400 Speaker 1: that too. Yeah, how many kids today even remember the 787 00:49:58,719 --> 00:50:01,080 Speaker 1: lett Any civil war would stretch really from I think 788 00:50:01,120 --> 00:50:04,080 Speaker 1: about nineteen seventy five to nineteen ninety or so, fifteen 789 00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:08,160 Speaker 1: year long civil war. It was a rough time anyway. 790 00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:12,280 Speaker 1: Governor Cuomo has put out this report and it's just absurd. 791 00:50:13,520 --> 00:50:16,640 Speaker 1: This report is absurd. There is a theory out there. 792 00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:18,960 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna say this, There is a theory out 793 00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:23,040 Speaker 1: there that it's not just because they keep on doing 794 00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:27,360 Speaker 1: these serology tests looking for antibodies, but there's also T 795 00:50:27,760 --> 00:50:33,200 Speaker 1: cell immunity to infection, which means that your T cells 796 00:50:33,239 --> 00:50:36,600 Speaker 1: are capable of very quickly responding to an infection so 797 00:50:36,640 --> 00:50:39,080 Speaker 1: it does not become a serious infection take hold in 798 00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:41,279 Speaker 1: you and you have all the symptoms and so on 799 00:50:41,280 --> 00:50:45,319 Speaker 1: and so forth of the worst symptoms at least, and 800 00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:47,040 Speaker 1: there's a theory out there that there may have been 801 00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:49,319 Speaker 1: much more broad exposure that also, let I'm not this 802 00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:51,839 Speaker 1: has not proven. This is a theory that there may 803 00:50:51,880 --> 00:50:56,640 Speaker 1: have been broader exposure. And so New York, for example, 804 00:50:56,640 --> 00:50:59,200 Speaker 1: where I'm telling you this disease, when it was out there, 805 00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:01,080 Speaker 1: it was all I mean, it was spreading all over 806 00:51:01,120 --> 00:51:03,640 Speaker 1: the place. Right. We all know that I was riding 807 00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:07,360 Speaker 1: the subway four times a day when this virus was 808 00:51:07,520 --> 00:51:11,600 Speaker 1: at its absolute, unrestrained maximum, just people coughing on each 809 00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:14,359 Speaker 1: other everywhere, and we're told, don't wear masks, don't No 810 00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:17,120 Speaker 1: one even heard of social distancing at that point. So 811 00:51:17,160 --> 00:51:18,759 Speaker 1: there are a lot of people who were exposed to 812 00:51:18,800 --> 00:51:21,000 Speaker 1: this who didn't get it or didn't really get symptoms. 813 00:51:21,880 --> 00:51:25,560 Speaker 1: The prology testing that's done right now looks for the 814 00:51:25,880 --> 00:51:28,800 Speaker 1: looks for antibodies, but t sell immunity is not something 815 00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:31,440 Speaker 1: that it would it would catch. And this all goes 816 00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:37,120 Speaker 1: to a theory that I think is likely. I give 817 00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:39,719 Speaker 1: credibility or credence to this theory that is in some 818 00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:42,240 Speaker 1: corners of the medical community. Again, this is not a fact, 819 00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:46,120 Speaker 1: this is a theory, but that the virus effectively spread 820 00:51:46,840 --> 00:51:50,560 Speaker 1: hit and now you have a population that's much less 821 00:51:50,600 --> 00:51:55,520 Speaker 1: susceptible to it because it effectively burned through New York. 822 00:51:56,400 --> 00:51:58,480 Speaker 1: You know, it's like a forest fire. It's already burned through, 823 00:51:58,480 --> 00:52:00,640 Speaker 1: it's burned down the trees and what's left. What you know, 824 00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:03,920 Speaker 1: then the regrowth is happening. And that hadn't happened in 825 00:52:03,960 --> 00:52:06,400 Speaker 1: other parts of the country. It hasn't happened yet, not 826 00:52:06,480 --> 00:52:10,239 Speaker 1: the same way. So I know there's tremendous concern about 827 00:52:10,239 --> 00:52:13,680 Speaker 1: the second wave here. And now you've got CUOMO with 828 00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:21,080 Speaker 1: twenty two twenty two states on a list that are 829 00:52:21,080 --> 00:52:25,680 Speaker 1: required to do additional quarantine if they come back, required 830 00:52:25,719 --> 00:52:28,839 Speaker 1: to do quarantine for two weeks, if they come back 831 00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:30,840 Speaker 1: to New York City from traveling in those states, and 832 00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:33,760 Speaker 1: they're going to make you fill out a form and 833 00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:36,400 Speaker 1: they're going to find you up to two thousand dollars 834 00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:40,759 Speaker 1: for non compliance. Well, where is the authority on this? Now? 835 00:52:40,760 --> 00:52:43,880 Speaker 1: How is this? Where's the DOJ? Why aren't they suing? 836 00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:47,040 Speaker 1: How is this not a violation of interstate Gammer's clause? 837 00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:49,560 Speaker 1: You're going to lock people in their homes for two 838 00:52:49,600 --> 00:52:55,680 Speaker 1: weeks just because they've visited a state where the governor 839 00:52:55,680 --> 00:53:00,760 Speaker 1: of New York thinks there are too many COVID cases. Remember, 840 00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:04,600 Speaker 1: they've they've expanded this not just to people who have 841 00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:10,239 Speaker 1: the disease that's quarantine, but people that go to places 842 00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:13,600 Speaker 1: where there are people with the disease and they're going 843 00:53:13,640 --> 00:53:15,960 Speaker 1: to come back and now'll be in or two week quarantine. 844 00:53:17,920 --> 00:53:21,160 Speaker 1: We can't keep living like this, folks. I think that's 845 00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:23,839 Speaker 1: We're all just going to have to deal with this. 846 00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:25,600 Speaker 1: You know, I've told you this all along. I may 847 00:53:25,680 --> 00:53:27,200 Speaker 1: come on to the show one day and say, guys, 848 00:53:27,520 --> 00:53:29,399 Speaker 1: I feel I'm really sick. I gotta take some days 849 00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:32,399 Speaker 1: off here because I've caught COVID nineteen. I understand that. 850 00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:35,400 Speaker 1: I know that that could happen, and that will change 851 00:53:35,719 --> 00:53:38,960 Speaker 1: nothing that I have said to you. We all take risks. 852 00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:42,000 Speaker 1: We are all living in an imperfect world where there 853 00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:45,759 Speaker 1: is no guarantee of safety, certainly not from the state, 854 00:53:45,840 --> 00:53:49,359 Speaker 1: but there's no guarantee of safety period. And we keep 855 00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:53,000 Speaker 1: on getting told things by the people in charge who 856 00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:56,000 Speaker 1: are seizing more and more authority for themselves that are 857 00:53:56,040 --> 00:54:02,120 Speaker 1: just fundamentally nonsensical and not true week. We cannot beat 858 00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:07,600 Speaker 1: this virus by having these arbitrary government you know, lockdown, shutdown, 859 00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:12,000 Speaker 1: mass distance, lockdown, shutdown mass distance. Through cycles and cycles 860 00:54:12,040 --> 00:54:16,640 Speaker 1: of this, it isn't working. It has not worked. It 861 00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:19,560 Speaker 1: did not work in California. Why is it going to 862 00:54:19,600 --> 00:54:22,800 Speaker 1: work now in all these other places? Thanks for listening 863 00:54:22,800 --> 00:54:26,239 Speaker 1: to the buses and show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on 864 00:54:26,320 --> 00:54:30,280 Speaker 1: Apple podcasts, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever you get your podcast. 865 00:54:30,480 --> 00:54:32,920 Speaker 1: Let me say what honor it is for me to 866 00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:37,120 Speaker 1: serve under a president who is such a strong supporter 867 00:54:37,560 --> 00:54:42,360 Speaker 1: of law enforcement. I've said repeatedly that, to my mind, 868 00:54:42,400 --> 00:54:46,879 Speaker 1: there is no more noble profession in our country than 869 00:54:46,920 --> 00:54:51,120 Speaker 1: serving as a law enforcement officer. The police put their 870 00:54:51,160 --> 00:54:55,080 Speaker 1: lives and well being on the line every day for us, 871 00:54:55,080 --> 00:54:58,080 Speaker 1: and their jobs have never been more difficult than it 872 00:54:58,160 --> 00:55:03,000 Speaker 1: is today. I believe it's a important to understand that, 873 00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:07,200 Speaker 1: just like any other institution, there's always room for improvement, 874 00:55:08,160 --> 00:55:12,239 Speaker 1: and over the past several decades, there's unquestionably been a 875 00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:17,759 Speaker 1: lot of progress and reforms in policing that's improved policing 876 00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:21,959 Speaker 1: and life for the officers, their families, and their communities. 877 00:55:22,520 --> 00:55:26,280 Speaker 1: We have the most professional police in the world. Thank 878 00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:32,520 Speaker 1: goodness that we have an administration with people like Bill 879 00:55:32,600 --> 00:55:34,600 Speaker 1: Barr who will say what needs to be said at 880 00:55:34,600 --> 00:55:39,040 Speaker 1: this point in time about law enforcement. The Democrat Party 881 00:55:39,160 --> 00:55:41,759 Speaker 1: has not just turned their backs on law enforcement. They 882 00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:48,400 Speaker 1: are They are throwing law enforcement officers to the violent, 883 00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:53,200 Speaker 1: vengeful mob and making it less safe for all of 884 00:55:53,280 --> 00:55:59,640 Speaker 1: us on the streets and doing tremendous damage to the 885 00:55:59,719 --> 00:56:03,800 Speaker 1: rule of law. To the sense that we have certain 886 00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:06,440 Speaker 1: parts of our day to day lives in this country 887 00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:09,200 Speaker 1: that we all agree on, right, we all want everyone. 888 00:56:09,239 --> 00:56:12,799 Speaker 1: I want everyone. I want every person in America to 889 00:56:12,920 --> 00:56:16,600 Speaker 1: be safe going home at night, walking to work in 890 00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:20,399 Speaker 1: the morning, you know, driving to their job. I want 891 00:56:20,440 --> 00:56:24,080 Speaker 1: every person to have the full protection of law enforcement, 892 00:56:24,120 --> 00:56:26,239 Speaker 1: to have full due process as well. If they're on 893 00:56:26,239 --> 00:56:29,319 Speaker 1: the wrong side of law enforcement, that's not These are 894 00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:33,960 Speaker 1: not partisan agenda issues, right. I don't want anyone to 895 00:56:34,120 --> 00:56:36,360 Speaker 1: be the victim of a crime, and I want the 896 00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:44,040 Speaker 1: maximum amount of police protection feasible and reasonable to have 897 00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:48,760 Speaker 1: a bare minimum of violent crime in our society for everyone. 898 00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:54,400 Speaker 1: I don't want anyone getting attacked by whether it's one 899 00:56:54,440 --> 00:56:59,440 Speaker 1: individual or a violent mob on the street. Democrats don't 900 00:56:59,440 --> 00:57:02,120 Speaker 1: seem to subscribe to this theory anymore. You know, we're 901 00:57:02,120 --> 00:57:05,120 Speaker 1: a bad country that's very racist, that needs to be punished. 902 00:57:05,880 --> 00:57:09,040 Speaker 1: We need more violence on the streets. We need our 903 00:57:09,080 --> 00:57:16,480 Speaker 1: cops to be defamed, to be demoralized. That is their approach. 904 00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:22,760 Speaker 1: That's what's happening in America today. And I'm happy to 905 00:57:22,800 --> 00:57:28,400 Speaker 1: hear that the Attorney General will say these words, but 906 00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:30,720 Speaker 1: we need a lot more. We need a lot more 907 00:57:30,760 --> 00:57:33,439 Speaker 1: than just words. You have Deblasio for examples out there, 908 00:57:34,240 --> 00:57:39,800 Speaker 1: saying things like this play clip five. We obviously took 909 00:57:39,840 --> 00:57:43,160 Speaker 1: money out of the NYPD budget, put it into youth programs, 910 00:57:43,200 --> 00:57:46,040 Speaker 1: put it into social services, put it into recreation centers 911 00:57:46,080 --> 00:57:50,080 Speaker 1: for young people. That's really the right direction. I'm glad 912 00:57:50,080 --> 00:57:52,680 Speaker 1: we did that. But the fact that we're going to 913 00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:55,240 Speaker 1: have to fight crime in many ways is also clear. 914 00:57:55,960 --> 00:57:58,479 Speaker 1: We need the good work of the men and women 915 00:57:58,480 --> 00:58:02,320 Speaker 1: in NYPD the streets of our city. We need communities 916 00:58:02,320 --> 00:58:07,080 Speaker 1: to come forward, particularly through civic leadership, clergy to your 917 00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:09,880 Speaker 1: violence movement, do all the things that they can do, 918 00:58:09,960 --> 00:58:12,080 Speaker 1: and they can do things that police can't do. And 919 00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:15,280 Speaker 1: the NYPD is quite clear about that. Community voices, community 920 00:58:15,280 --> 00:58:18,680 Speaker 1: members can achieve some things differently, and we need both 921 00:58:18,720 --> 00:58:22,240 Speaker 1: pieces to happen. So we're going to devote ourselves to 922 00:58:22,360 --> 00:58:25,120 Speaker 1: all of it. We are going to fight this back. 923 00:58:25,640 --> 00:58:29,680 Speaker 1: I've seen us fight back from much, much tougher circumstances 924 00:58:29,680 --> 00:58:31,720 Speaker 1: in terms of crime and violence. We're going to fight 925 00:58:31,800 --> 00:58:34,560 Speaker 1: this back, but it's going to take everyone. Oh wait 926 00:58:34,600 --> 00:58:37,600 Speaker 1: a second, you mean that moving funds from the police 927 00:58:37,800 --> 00:58:40,160 Speaker 1: and making sure the cops don't feel backed up when 928 00:58:40,160 --> 00:58:42,640 Speaker 1: they have to do their jobs and deal with violent thugs. 929 00:58:42,640 --> 00:58:44,520 Speaker 1: Do you mean that that's resulted in more crime? Who 930 00:58:44,520 --> 00:58:49,000 Speaker 1: could have guessed? Oh, everyone guessed, everyone knew, But now 931 00:58:49,040 --> 00:58:51,280 Speaker 1: it's oh, no, I guess we have a problem. We 932 00:58:51,320 --> 00:58:53,360 Speaker 1: need to have a whole of community approach to do 933 00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:57,800 Speaker 1: with this Deblasia never talks about how we need to 934 00:58:57,840 --> 00:59:04,280 Speaker 1: talk to clergy or just community leaders. About parental involvement 935 00:59:04,480 --> 00:59:09,720 Speaker 1: in school activities, meaning parents drop the kids off, pick 936 00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:13,080 Speaker 1: them up from school, if they can make sure their 937 00:59:13,080 --> 00:59:15,320 Speaker 1: homework is getting done, make sure that when they get 938 00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:18,160 Speaker 1: home they're asked about their school day. Make sure that 939 00:59:18,240 --> 00:59:21,760 Speaker 1: there is a focus put on learning and that there 940 00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:25,560 Speaker 1: is an expectation that children will do their homework, will 941 00:59:25,640 --> 00:59:29,600 Speaker 1: be responsible, will be respectful to teachers, will be quiet 942 00:59:29,840 --> 00:59:34,920 Speaker 1: when quiet is requested by teachers. That intact family situation, 943 00:59:35,880 --> 00:59:37,960 Speaker 1: intact families. I mean, if you look at the data 944 00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:41,720 Speaker 1: on intact families, and hat tip to Matt Walsh over 945 00:59:41,760 --> 00:59:44,400 Speaker 1: the Daily Wire who pulled all this data together recently, 946 00:59:44,400 --> 00:59:48,480 Speaker 1: and I mean, I've known these, I've known the analysis here, 947 00:59:48,600 --> 00:59:50,520 Speaker 1: but Matt actually pulled some facts and figures I was 948 00:59:50,520 --> 00:59:56,200 Speaker 1: looking through last night. If you just look at families 949 00:59:56,200 --> 01:00:03,240 Speaker 1: that are intact across America, the problem of poverty and 950 01:00:04,280 --> 01:00:07,960 Speaker 1: problems of poverty and domestic violence and dropping out of 951 01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:16,360 Speaker 1: school and criminality all plummet across all racial categories. So 952 01:00:16,480 --> 01:00:21,160 Speaker 1: if you really want children, whether it's White children, Black children, 953 01:00:21,160 --> 01:00:25,360 Speaker 1: Hispanic children, Asian children, if you really want to promote 954 01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:28,920 Speaker 1: something as a policy and as a goal that is 955 01:00:28,960 --> 01:00:34,400 Speaker 1: the single most likely thing to improve their life outcomes, 956 01:00:35,920 --> 01:00:40,560 Speaker 1: it would be the family. It would be promotion of 957 01:00:40,800 --> 01:00:46,600 Speaker 1: getting married, staying married, and waiting until marriage to have children. 958 01:00:47,560 --> 01:00:51,040 Speaker 1: This is the I was gonna say, it's like the 959 01:00:51,080 --> 01:00:53,360 Speaker 1: secret pathway, but it's not secret at all. It's obvious, 960 01:00:53,480 --> 01:00:57,600 Speaker 1: it's known. But Democrats won't touch it. How can they? 961 01:00:57,640 --> 01:01:00,680 Speaker 1: Black lives matters out there arguing for the elimination of 962 01:01:00,680 --> 01:01:03,880 Speaker 1: the nuclear openly arguing for the elimination of the nuclear family, 963 01:01:04,680 --> 01:01:09,400 Speaker 1: the exact wrong thing for the Black community. For all communities, 964 01:01:09,880 --> 01:01:18,640 Speaker 1: all families do matter. Families are important. Families are the 965 01:01:18,680 --> 01:01:21,920 Speaker 1: basis for so much of our sense of how we 966 01:01:21,960 --> 01:01:27,880 Speaker 1: deal with authority and our emotional and psychological and intellectual development. No, no, 967 01:01:27,920 --> 01:01:29,960 Speaker 1: but de Blasio acts like, you know, if we just 968 01:01:30,400 --> 01:01:33,160 Speaker 1: we have a couple of more you know, after school 969 01:01:33,200 --> 01:01:36,600 Speaker 1: programs or something where people can play sports, there won't 970 01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:38,520 Speaker 1: be any more violenced. Look, I'm not opposed to after 971 01:01:38,560 --> 01:01:42,560 Speaker 1: school programs. It's great. I'm not some maniact things that 972 01:01:42,640 --> 01:01:44,920 Speaker 1: you know, we shouldn't have kids have more opportunities to 973 01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:47,480 Speaker 1: play and do fun things. But I'm also not the 974 01:01:47,520 --> 01:01:51,040 Speaker 1: one who was locking down playgrounds while massive protests were happening. 975 01:01:51,360 --> 01:01:56,520 Speaker 1: De Blasio was. But I also would like to see 976 01:01:57,080 --> 01:02:02,040 Speaker 1: better outcomes for all of us. It will be better 977 01:02:02,080 --> 01:02:06,320 Speaker 1: for society and promoting intact families. But you know, there's 978 01:02:06,320 --> 01:02:09,800 Speaker 1: a degree of individual responsibility that goes into that. It's 979 01:02:09,800 --> 01:02:12,720 Speaker 1: not the system that's preventing people from getting married and 980 01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:17,480 Speaker 1: staying married. That's an individual choice that's an individual responsibility. 981 01:02:19,720 --> 01:02:23,400 Speaker 1: And if you look at, for example, immigrants that come 982 01:02:23,480 --> 01:02:29,480 Speaker 1: from communities from countries around the world, including say Nigerian immigrants, 983 01:02:29,640 --> 01:02:33,280 Speaker 1: we're told the system is very, very racist in America. Meanwhile, 984 01:02:33,400 --> 01:02:37,880 Speaker 1: immigrants from Africa, who particularly if talking about immigrants who 985 01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:42,840 Speaker 1: have intact family structure, and immigrants from Africa have basically 986 01:02:42,920 --> 01:02:46,960 Speaker 1: the same percentage, it's within a few percentage points as 987 01:02:48,560 --> 01:02:52,080 Speaker 1: white American native born white Americans do on a per 988 01:02:52,080 --> 01:02:58,840 Speaker 1: capita basis, the household income of those immigrants that come 989 01:02:58,920 --> 01:03:01,880 Speaker 1: from Africa, dominently West Africa, and the analysis that I 990 01:03:01,920 --> 01:03:09,840 Speaker 1: saw is higher than the average white born in America 991 01:03:10,080 --> 01:03:14,320 Speaker 1: pera capita household income. So somehow the system that is 992 01:03:14,320 --> 01:03:17,439 Speaker 1: so racist and that is to blame for everything does 993 01:03:17,480 --> 01:03:23,120 Speaker 1: not prevent immigrants from Africa from coming here. They are black, 994 01:03:23,320 --> 01:03:27,200 Speaker 1: and they do very well, and they have intact family structure, 995 01:03:27,400 --> 01:03:32,120 Speaker 1: and they are success stories, right, And we know about 996 01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:36,760 Speaker 1: Asian family structure and the success stories there. Right, The 997 01:03:36,840 --> 01:03:41,920 Speaker 1: overwhelming number of Asian immigrants to America have intact family 998 01:03:41,960 --> 01:03:46,200 Speaker 1: structure and their children, you know, are you going off 999 01:03:46,240 --> 01:03:49,360 Speaker 1: to fantastic schools? These are all generalizations, but we're talking 1000 01:03:49,360 --> 01:03:51,439 Speaker 1: about numbers and we're talking about numbers, you're talking about 1001 01:03:51,480 --> 01:03:54,520 Speaker 1: the aggregates. If you're going to talk about policy, policy 1002 01:03:54,560 --> 01:03:57,480 Speaker 1: has to be made based upon what's generally true. You 1003 01:03:57,480 --> 01:04:00,360 Speaker 1: can't make policy based on what's always true, because nothing 1004 01:04:00,480 --> 01:04:03,720 Speaker 1: is going to be always true about a public policy matter. 1005 01:04:03,760 --> 01:04:05,880 Speaker 1: There's always going to be exceptions or places where there 1006 01:04:06,400 --> 01:04:10,760 Speaker 1: are a gray area or confusion. But it's just it's 1007 01:04:10,800 --> 01:04:13,760 Speaker 1: so remarkable that we're all focused now on how do 1008 01:04:13,880 --> 01:04:16,160 Speaker 1: we and look they're not even the Democrats aren't even 1009 01:04:16,160 --> 01:04:18,280 Speaker 1: really focused on making these communities better. This is all 1010 01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:20,520 Speaker 1: just window dressing. Now, Oh yeah, we need more money, 1011 01:04:20,600 --> 01:04:23,280 Speaker 1: no more funding, whatever. No, this is about hating the cops, 1012 01:04:23,600 --> 01:04:27,360 Speaker 1: turning out the minority vote for Biden against Trump, and 1013 01:04:27,440 --> 01:04:30,160 Speaker 1: creating the Democrat Party, creating a whole lot of excuses 1014 01:04:30,200 --> 01:04:35,040 Speaker 1: for why Democrat controlled enclaves just can't get it together, 1015 01:04:36,000 --> 01:04:39,280 Speaker 1: can't manage to control crime in places like Chicago or 1016 01:04:39,320 --> 01:04:41,960 Speaker 1: Saint Louis, and now in New York, which couldn't control 1017 01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:44,240 Speaker 1: crime for a long time, got under control but is 1018 01:04:44,240 --> 01:04:49,400 Speaker 1: now losing control. You have a just a whole series 1019 01:04:49,440 --> 01:04:53,160 Speaker 1: of excuses and no willingness to look at what would 1020 01:04:53,160 --> 01:04:57,960 Speaker 1: really make things better. For everyone, encouraging behaviors that would 1021 01:04:58,000 --> 01:05:03,840 Speaker 1: make things better for everyone. You're in the Freedom Hunt. 1022 01:05:04,280 --> 01:05:12,120 Speaker 1: This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. Princeton University is 1023 01:05:12,120 --> 01:05:17,640 Speaker 1: a very fancy place. It's very fancy. They have eating clubs, 1024 01:05:17,680 --> 01:05:21,480 Speaker 1: which are like fraternities, but in multimillion dollar mansions. Well 1025 01:05:21,520 --> 01:05:25,160 Speaker 1: you're served lunch on porcelain, and then you get to 1026 01:05:25,160 --> 01:05:28,200 Speaker 1: talk about how much Daddy has put in your trust 1027 01:05:28,200 --> 01:05:32,760 Speaker 1: fund this year. Princeton's a very fancy place, no question 1028 01:05:32,800 --> 01:05:37,360 Speaker 1: about it. But Princeton University because it's an elite school now, 1029 01:05:38,240 --> 01:05:39,960 Speaker 1: and I don't even know we should call them elite, 1030 01:05:39,960 --> 01:05:41,600 Speaker 1: because who knows why people who can get into these 1031 01:05:41,640 --> 01:05:46,800 Speaker 1: schools anymore. There's an open letter though, that has been 1032 01:05:46,840 --> 01:05:51,080 Speaker 1: published there. Remember this is I think consider the third 1033 01:05:51,520 --> 01:05:54,480 Speaker 1: the number three Ivy League school after Harvard and Yale. 1034 01:05:55,360 --> 01:05:57,080 Speaker 1: A lot of people would put Stanford ahead of it, 1035 01:05:57,080 --> 01:06:02,760 Speaker 1: but Princeton's still certainly a very international renowned institution. And 1036 01:06:02,880 --> 01:06:05,640 Speaker 1: here is what this. This is a faculty letter signed 1037 01:06:05,640 --> 01:06:09,120 Speaker 1: by I mean one hundred, one hundred and fifty professors. 1038 01:06:09,120 --> 01:06:11,880 Speaker 1: A huge number of professors have signed this thing, and 1039 01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:19,680 Speaker 1: it's on anti blackness as a foundational element to America. 1040 01:06:19,760 --> 01:06:24,520 Speaker 1: In fact, the very first line is, quote anti blackness 1041 01:06:25,240 --> 01:06:33,680 Speaker 1: is foundational to America. Wow, that's the very first line 1042 01:06:33,760 --> 01:06:38,200 Speaker 1: of this letter. And then they get into a discussion 1043 01:06:38,240 --> 01:06:39,720 Speaker 1: of how we deal with this, and the way we 1044 01:06:39,720 --> 01:06:44,800 Speaker 1: deal with this is anti racism. Now, many of us 1045 01:06:44,840 --> 01:06:50,440 Speaker 1: have thought that the the only obligation we have as 1046 01:06:50,480 --> 01:06:53,880 Speaker 1: individuals and as people is to not be racist. Right, 1047 01:06:53,920 --> 01:06:56,440 Speaker 1: just don't be racist, That's okay, and then you're not 1048 01:06:56,480 --> 01:06:59,400 Speaker 1: a racist, and then what's the problem. And racism is 1049 01:07:00,040 --> 01:07:03,640 Speaker 1: treating people or thinking of people as less than or 1050 01:07:03,720 --> 01:07:07,120 Speaker 1: thinking of them differently because of their skin color. Very 1051 01:07:07,120 --> 01:07:11,200 Speaker 1: straightforward definition. Don't do that, You're not being racist. But no, 1052 01:07:11,440 --> 01:07:17,640 Speaker 1: anti racism is the affirmative taking of steps demanded of 1053 01:07:17,800 --> 01:07:22,480 Speaker 1: you by the woke left in order to deal with 1054 01:07:22,560 --> 01:07:25,120 Speaker 1: the As it is said in this letter from Princeton University, 1055 01:07:25,360 --> 01:07:32,480 Speaker 1: anti blackness that is foundational to America. And quote, So 1056 01:07:32,600 --> 01:07:35,960 Speaker 1: anti racism now turns into a whole list of demands. 1057 01:07:36,040 --> 01:07:37,680 Speaker 1: Now there are demands that are coming with all of 1058 01:07:37,720 --> 01:07:40,760 Speaker 1: this too. Right, George Floyd is shot, is not shot? 1059 01:07:40,880 --> 01:07:47,560 Speaker 1: Is killed asphyxiated in Minnesota by a police officer. National movement, 1060 01:07:47,560 --> 01:07:51,320 Speaker 1: and now here we are prince University demanding additional pay 1061 01:07:51,440 --> 01:07:56,520 Speaker 1: and perks for professors of color. Well that's quite a 1062 01:07:56,600 --> 01:07:59,240 Speaker 1: oh no, But this is the way it works, right, 1063 01:07:59,280 --> 01:08:02,360 Speaker 1: This is the way movement was always going to conduct itself. 1064 01:08:04,600 --> 01:08:08,920 Speaker 1: Here's what they write. It plays a role anti blackness 1065 01:08:08,920 --> 01:08:10,640 Speaker 1: and where we live and where we are welcome. It 1066 01:08:10,680 --> 01:08:14,160 Speaker 1: influences the level of health care we receive. It determines 1067 01:08:14,160 --> 01:08:16,160 Speaker 1: a degree of risk we are assumed to pose in 1068 01:08:16,240 --> 01:08:19,720 Speaker 1: context from retail to lending and beyond. It informs the 1069 01:08:19,760 --> 01:08:23,439 Speaker 1: expectations and tactics of law enforcement. Anti black racism has 1070 01:08:23,479 --> 01:08:26,479 Speaker 1: hamstrung our political process. It has rampant even in our 1071 01:08:26,520 --> 01:08:29,479 Speaker 1: most progressive communities, and it plays a powerful role at 1072 01:08:29,479 --> 01:08:34,639 Speaker 1: institutions like Princeton, despite declared values of diversity and inclusion. 1073 01:08:35,479 --> 01:08:38,760 Speaker 1: So anti blackness, according to this open letter, signed by 1074 01:08:38,840 --> 01:08:41,719 Speaker 1: written by professors at Princeton, Signed by professors at Princeton, 1075 01:08:42,120 --> 01:08:52,000 Speaker 1: anti blackness is a constant failing of Princeton University, even 1076 01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:55,080 Speaker 1: though Princeton University thinks of itself as very diverse and 1077 01:08:55,120 --> 01:08:57,200 Speaker 1: progressive and all the rest of it. Right, not enough, 1078 01:08:58,120 --> 01:08:59,920 Speaker 1: So you'd say, well, okay, what are we supposed to do? 1079 01:09:00,040 --> 01:09:02,479 Speaker 1: But let's just assume that let's just accept this premise 1080 01:09:02,520 --> 01:09:05,960 Speaker 1: for a second, that the country is still so racist 1081 01:09:06,000 --> 01:09:07,800 Speaker 1: and we don't talk about this enough. We've talked about 1082 01:09:07,800 --> 01:09:09,559 Speaker 1: it every day, we talked about this all the time. CNN. 1083 01:09:09,880 --> 01:09:12,280 Speaker 1: I've left this out of today's show. I shouldn't have 1084 01:09:12,880 --> 01:09:15,640 Speaker 1: is creating a new I believe it is called a 1085 01:09:15,760 --> 01:09:21,559 Speaker 1: quote race Coverage team end quote to focus on race 1086 01:09:21,840 --> 01:09:25,479 Speaker 1: issues at CNN, specifically in the newsroom. They're going to 1087 01:09:25,560 --> 01:09:29,400 Speaker 1: have a race you know, you talk about your beats 1088 01:09:29,439 --> 01:09:32,960 Speaker 1: in the news in the news world. Race is now 1089 01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:37,160 Speaker 1: going to be a specialization at CNN for journalists. I'm 1090 01:09:37,160 --> 01:09:39,840 Speaker 1: not making this up. This is what Jeff Zucker said yesterday. 1091 01:09:40,800 --> 01:09:43,880 Speaker 1: They came out and talked about this. So, okay, what 1092 01:09:43,960 --> 01:09:45,120 Speaker 1: can we do. How do you get to be an 1093 01:09:45,120 --> 01:09:49,160 Speaker 1: anti racist? Is it enough to just treat people of 1094 01:09:49,240 --> 01:09:55,040 Speaker 1: color as hello, human beings deserving of all the same 1095 01:09:55,439 --> 01:09:59,040 Speaker 1: rights and dignity and decency that you'd give to any 1096 01:09:59,080 --> 01:10:03,080 Speaker 1: and to any person, And to be an advocate for 1097 01:10:03,160 --> 01:10:06,000 Speaker 1: treating everyone equally under the law and make sure that 1098 01:10:06,080 --> 01:10:08,560 Speaker 1: everyone is judged by the content of their character, not 1099 01:10:08,640 --> 01:10:11,120 Speaker 1: the color of their skin. Oh no, no, no, that's 1100 01:10:11,120 --> 01:10:16,200 Speaker 1: not anti racism. Anti racism is quote quote create a 1101 01:10:16,280 --> 01:10:21,320 Speaker 1: center specifically dedicated to anti racism at Princeton University. Reward 1102 01:10:21,400 --> 01:10:24,639 Speaker 1: the invisible work done by faculty of color with course 1103 01:10:24,680 --> 01:10:31,680 Speaker 1: relief and summer salary. That's right. Additional financial perks. Reconsider 1104 01:10:31,720 --> 01:10:35,120 Speaker 1: the use of standardized testing at Princeton University, which research 1105 01:10:35,840 --> 01:10:39,679 Speaker 1: shows to be strongly correlated with the underrepresentation of people 1106 01:10:39,720 --> 01:10:44,200 Speaker 1: of color. Acknowledge on the Princeton homepage that the university 1107 01:10:44,320 --> 01:10:51,120 Speaker 1: is cited on indigenous land. The statements should explicitly acknowledge 1108 01:10:51,160 --> 01:10:55,000 Speaker 1: that Princeton University's land is unseated and quote acknowledge the 1109 01:10:55,120 --> 01:10:58,880 Speaker 1: land of this university is the unseated traditional territory of 1110 01:10:58,960 --> 01:11:07,000 Speaker 1: the nanticoke any Lenapey tribal nation. Oh my god, that's right. 1111 01:11:07,160 --> 01:11:09,760 Speaker 1: Bend the need, do as we say all of our 1112 01:11:10,120 --> 01:11:13,000 Speaker 1: give us money, give us privileges, give us what we want, 1113 01:11:13,240 --> 01:11:16,280 Speaker 1: or else you're racist. That's what it's turned into at Princeton, 1114 01:11:16,960 --> 01:11:20,479 Speaker 1: and it's not the only place. Thanks for listening to 1115 01:11:20,520 --> 01:11:25,000 Speaker 1: the Buses and Show podcast. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcast, 1116 01:11:25,000 --> 01:11:29,439 Speaker 1: the iHeartRadio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. It's 1117 01:11:29,479 --> 01:11:32,400 Speaker 1: harsany time we should make like a little intro form 1118 01:11:32,439 --> 01:11:35,719 Speaker 1: or something. Our buddy David Harsani is with us now. 1119 01:11:35,880 --> 01:11:40,439 Speaker 1: He is a senior writer at National Review, and he's 1120 01:11:40,479 --> 01:11:42,800 Speaker 1: got a piece coming out on what I was talking 1121 01:11:42,800 --> 01:11:47,919 Speaker 1: about earlier in the show about Cuomo's ill deserved undeserved victory. 1122 01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:50,599 Speaker 1: Lap mister Harsan, You're great to have you back, sir. 1123 01:11:51,400 --> 01:11:54,879 Speaker 1: What was the pleasure? Thanks for having me? Ah, So, Cuomo, 1124 01:11:55,520 --> 01:12:00,919 Speaker 1: with thirty five thousand deaths in his state, is create artwork. 1125 01:12:01,720 --> 01:12:03,599 Speaker 1: That's right. This is a real thing, folks, for those 1126 01:12:03,600 --> 01:12:09,440 Speaker 1: who are wondering artwork. You commemorate what a tremendous victory 1127 01:12:10,240 --> 01:12:12,920 Speaker 1: he has had here with all of this. Tell us 1128 01:12:12,960 --> 01:12:14,400 Speaker 1: what you think about all that? I mean, hold on, 1129 01:12:14,439 --> 01:12:17,080 Speaker 1: I actually I'm trying to pull up the name of it. 1130 01:12:17,080 --> 01:12:23,679 Speaker 1: It is the New York Tough poster of success under 1131 01:12:23,840 --> 01:12:26,439 Speaker 1: Cuomo's leadership fighting against COVID nineteen. What do you think, 1132 01:12:26,479 --> 01:12:30,559 Speaker 1: David not a not a fan of it because it's 1133 01:12:31,000 --> 01:12:36,760 Speaker 1: mythical and it's obviously a conservative conservative effort by his 1134 01:12:36,840 --> 01:12:39,000 Speaker 1: allies and himself to make it seem that new that. 1135 01:12:39,200 --> 01:12:41,760 Speaker 1: You know, his policies were successful in New York, which 1136 01:12:42,200 --> 01:12:45,840 Speaker 1: they most certainly were not by any standard. In fact, 1137 01:12:45,920 --> 01:12:48,080 Speaker 1: if you if you compare New York to other countries 1138 01:12:48,080 --> 01:12:50,360 Speaker 1: in the world, it's one of the worst. To compare 1139 01:12:50,400 --> 01:12:55,200 Speaker 1: to any state in America, it's the worst. And when 1140 01:12:55,240 --> 01:12:59,120 Speaker 1: you think about it more deeply, and you know, many 1141 01:12:59,160 --> 01:13:01,840 Speaker 1: people have mentioned this, but Cuomo made perhaps one of 1142 01:13:01,880 --> 01:13:05,959 Speaker 1: the most deadly policy mistakes in the whole coronavirus crisis 1143 01:13:06,000 --> 01:13:10,160 Speaker 1: by sending infected people back to the nursing home. So 1144 01:13:10,760 --> 01:13:16,480 Speaker 1: that whole entire ridiculous pyramid poster he has is insulting 1145 01:13:16,479 --> 01:13:19,760 Speaker 1: to anyone who was paying attention. If it was done right, 1146 01:13:19,840 --> 01:13:21,800 Speaker 1: there would be thirty thousand dead people. At thought him 1147 01:13:21,840 --> 01:13:25,640 Speaker 1: of that pyramid, frankly, you know. And it's just disgusting 1148 01:13:25,720 --> 01:13:28,720 Speaker 1: that the media has basically given him a pass. It's 1149 01:13:28,760 --> 01:13:31,439 Speaker 1: disgusting that his poll numbers are so high because I 1150 01:13:31,439 --> 01:13:34,040 Speaker 1: have to assume that most people don't know all the 1151 01:13:34,520 --> 01:13:37,400 Speaker 1: you know, things that have happened. And it's disgusting that 1152 01:13:37,439 --> 01:13:42,040 Speaker 1: he blames other states now for for mismanaging when he 1153 01:13:42,680 --> 01:13:47,360 Speaker 1: is most incompetent governor in America. I can put him 1154 01:13:47,360 --> 01:13:49,720 Speaker 1: work starkly, Yeah, No, I mean I tell us that 1155 01:13:49,760 --> 01:13:53,599 Speaker 1: I really feel I totally agree with you. I'm a 1156 01:13:53,680 --> 01:13:57,240 Speaker 1: little astonished. I look, New York is overwhelmingly Democrats state 1157 01:13:57,280 --> 01:13:59,120 Speaker 1: as we all know. I think statewide it's like three 1158 01:13:59,160 --> 01:14:01,440 Speaker 1: to one New York. It's like eight to one Democrat 1159 01:14:01,439 --> 01:14:06,280 Speaker 1: to Republican. And yet I don't know how anyone could 1160 01:14:06,280 --> 01:14:09,320 Speaker 1: be so dumb And it's like a seventy percent approval 1161 01:14:09,400 --> 01:14:12,599 Speaker 1: rating he allegedly has in the state be so dumb 1162 01:14:12,640 --> 01:14:15,400 Speaker 1: as to think that he did a good job. But 1163 01:14:15,479 --> 01:14:19,919 Speaker 1: it really this is turned into whoever mouths the approved 1164 01:14:20,040 --> 01:14:23,439 Speaker 1: slogans of the lockdown movement? You know, who's ever like 1165 01:14:23,479 --> 01:14:27,000 Speaker 1: where a mask and you know, social distance and a 1166 01:14:27,120 --> 01:14:29,679 Speaker 1: listition to the sacience and all these things that Cuomo 1167 01:14:29,800 --> 01:14:32,759 Speaker 1: saying all the time. If you just say all that stuff, 1168 01:14:33,240 --> 01:14:35,320 Speaker 1: you're like one of the good guys. Even if you 1169 01:14:35,360 --> 01:14:38,920 Speaker 1: were sending COVID positive seniors into nursing homes to kill 1170 01:14:38,960 --> 01:14:42,280 Speaker 1: a lot of their fellow nursing home residence. That's what happened, 1171 01:14:43,240 --> 01:14:45,240 Speaker 1: was that your New York accent you just did? That 1172 01:14:45,360 --> 01:14:47,920 Speaker 1: was Cuomo. This is you know, you have a here 1173 01:14:47,960 --> 01:14:50,120 Speaker 1: with a press conference. He sort of he goes up 1174 01:14:50,200 --> 01:14:52,040 Speaker 1: here and then sometimes he brings it down here for 1175 01:14:52,080 --> 01:14:54,639 Speaker 1: a little bit, but then he goes back and it's 1176 01:14:54,720 --> 01:14:59,840 Speaker 1: kind of slow. But you were saying, David, Yeah, I mean, 1177 01:15:00,120 --> 01:15:03,160 Speaker 1: you know, that's all correct, you know, And I think 1178 01:15:03,240 --> 01:15:05,559 Speaker 1: part of the problem is that you have him giving 1179 01:15:05,920 --> 01:15:11,360 Speaker 1: competent looking or you know, something that projects competence in 1180 01:15:11,560 --> 01:15:14,600 Speaker 1: press conferences. Right, So I think those press conference has 1181 01:15:14,640 --> 01:15:16,640 Speaker 1: almost fooled me in the beginning as well. You know, 1182 01:15:16,960 --> 01:15:18,320 Speaker 1: he looked like he knew what he was doing. It 1183 01:15:18,360 --> 01:15:20,240 Speaker 1: look like he had control of the situation. He's got 1184 01:15:20,240 --> 01:15:24,040 Speaker 1: the code on, you know, all that stuff. And then 1185 01:15:24,160 --> 01:15:27,040 Speaker 1: obviously he's on you know, CNN every day with his 1186 01:15:27,439 --> 01:15:32,240 Speaker 1: brother just lobbing softballs at him. He's on the Tonight 1187 01:15:32,320 --> 01:15:34,320 Speaker 1: Show where they're talking about all the women who are 1188 01:15:34,360 --> 01:15:37,280 Speaker 1: really into him because he's so competent, et cetera. And 1189 01:15:37,320 --> 01:15:39,960 Speaker 1: you create this perception of competence that does not exist. 1190 01:15:40,360 --> 01:15:42,439 Speaker 1: And then the media not all I have to say. 1191 01:15:42,479 --> 01:15:43,920 Speaker 1: I mean, some people have gone after him, but in 1192 01:15:44,000 --> 01:15:47,000 Speaker 1: general given him a pass. And I think that that, all, 1193 01:15:47,280 --> 01:15:49,160 Speaker 1: you know, is part of it. And then partisanship is 1194 01:15:49,200 --> 01:15:50,479 Speaker 1: part of it as well. You know, people want to 1195 01:15:50,520 --> 01:15:52,720 Speaker 1: blame Trump, so they don't blame Cuomo or you know, 1196 01:15:52,960 --> 01:15:55,360 Speaker 1: or whatever. But seventy seven percent. He's one of the 1197 01:15:55,400 --> 01:15:59,479 Speaker 1: most popular governors in America, and his state has mentioned 1198 01:15:59,479 --> 01:16:01,720 Speaker 1: I think this last week on your show, but there 1199 01:16:01,720 --> 01:16:04,280 Speaker 1: are more deaths in New York nursing homes than they're 1200 01:16:04,280 --> 01:16:06,839 Speaker 1: on the entire state of Florida's, entire state of Texas, 1201 01:16:06,960 --> 01:16:11,880 Speaker 1: and I believe still entire state of Arizona, which is yeah. 1202 01:16:11,920 --> 01:16:13,840 Speaker 1: I mean you would think that, don't. We always hear 1203 01:16:13,880 --> 01:16:16,479 Speaker 1: things that don't the results speak for themselves. This has 1204 01:16:16,520 --> 01:16:18,720 Speaker 1: been a as you, as you let it out, a 1205 01:16:18,720 --> 01:16:23,599 Speaker 1: propaganda campaign to completely overcome and really erase the results 1206 01:16:23,640 --> 01:16:26,080 Speaker 1: because there's there's no arguing the numbers. I mean, New York, 1207 01:16:26,280 --> 01:16:28,080 Speaker 1: I'm right in the middle of it. I was living here. 1208 01:16:28,280 --> 01:16:31,599 Speaker 1: I couldn't see family members for months, couldn't do anything, 1209 01:16:31,920 --> 01:16:35,560 Speaker 1: and this place was a catastrophe, an absolute catastrophe. And 1210 01:16:36,040 --> 01:16:37,600 Speaker 1: you know, David, I also have to wonder, and I 1211 01:16:37,640 --> 01:16:40,360 Speaker 1: know you're somebody who you're you know you're you're more 1212 01:16:40,439 --> 01:16:45,599 Speaker 1: open to some of the more traditional mitigation arguments working 1213 01:16:45,640 --> 01:16:48,760 Speaker 1: than I am. I'm not saying they're wrong. I just 1214 01:16:48,920 --> 01:16:50,680 Speaker 1: I think I'm a little more skeptical of some of 1215 01:16:50,720 --> 01:16:52,000 Speaker 1: the new Although I don't want to put words in 1216 01:16:52,040 --> 01:16:54,920 Speaker 1: your mouth. But New York had a lockdown where everyone 1217 01:16:54,920 --> 01:16:57,280 Speaker 1: wear a mask and the disease was raging out of 1218 01:16:57,280 --> 01:17:00,599 Speaker 1: control for about ninety days, right, and I never saw 1219 01:17:00,600 --> 01:17:03,320 Speaker 1: anybody without a mask, and everyone was on lockdown, but 1220 01:17:03,360 --> 01:17:05,679 Speaker 1: the disease was still spreading and spreading and spreading, including 1221 01:17:05,720 --> 01:17:10,479 Speaker 1: spreading in people's homes. California has been under you know, 1222 01:17:10,520 --> 01:17:13,640 Speaker 1: the Democrat mantra of mass, mass masks, social distance, all 1223 01:17:13,680 --> 01:17:17,280 Speaker 1: this stuff, and now they're rolling back, no more indoors stuff. 1224 01:17:17,320 --> 01:17:20,960 Speaker 1: They're just shy of a phase one lockdown. If the 1225 01:17:21,000 --> 01:17:25,880 Speaker 1: policies work, why aren't they working right? Well, here's my 1226 01:17:25,920 --> 01:17:27,960 Speaker 1: position on this stuff. Some makes sense. I have to 1227 01:17:28,200 --> 01:17:30,360 Speaker 1: I have to trust experts because that's how we live 1228 01:17:30,360 --> 01:17:31,680 Speaker 1: in life. I get on a plane, I have to 1229 01:17:31,720 --> 01:17:34,880 Speaker 1: trust that the pilot's going to get me there. Um. 1230 01:17:35,280 --> 01:17:37,960 Speaker 1: But more, as we get deeper into this, I realize 1231 01:17:38,000 --> 01:17:42,720 Speaker 1: how little they know. Yeah, and I'm very, very skeptical 1232 01:17:43,160 --> 01:17:46,439 Speaker 1: of anything they say, not because I think that most 1233 01:17:46,439 --> 01:17:48,280 Speaker 1: of them have, you know, bad intense. It's just that 1234 01:17:48,320 --> 01:17:50,560 Speaker 1: they don't know everything we think we know we do. 1235 01:17:50,960 --> 01:17:53,000 Speaker 1: There's just no we will not make sense of this 1236 01:17:53,120 --> 01:17:56,799 Speaker 1: for years and I'm all with the experts until one topic, 1237 01:17:56,840 --> 01:17:59,320 Speaker 1: and maybe you've discussed this is opening the schools. It 1238 01:17:59,479 --> 01:18:01,640 Speaker 1: is clear that the science says open to schools. The 1239 01:18:02,200 --> 01:18:05,360 Speaker 1: science says a common sense says that. My empirical view 1240 01:18:05,640 --> 01:18:09,160 Speaker 1: of it says so. And yet now Democrats were against 1241 01:18:09,200 --> 01:18:10,760 Speaker 1: that as well, which just tells me they want to 1242 01:18:10,800 --> 01:18:12,880 Speaker 1: keep this going until November, many of them, And there's 1243 01:18:12,920 --> 01:18:15,400 Speaker 1: just no other way to look at what they're up 1244 01:18:15,439 --> 01:18:17,720 Speaker 1: to and not come to that conclusion, at least from 1245 01:18:17,720 --> 01:18:20,559 Speaker 1: my perspective. Yeah, no, I think so, And on your 1246 01:18:20,920 --> 01:18:22,760 Speaker 1: that's for me. The main thing, David, it's that there 1247 01:18:22,800 --> 01:18:25,839 Speaker 1: are things that experts know, and there are things experts 1248 01:18:25,840 --> 01:18:28,760 Speaker 1: know more than the general public. But it's important to 1249 01:18:28,880 --> 01:18:31,879 Speaker 1: establish and know what those are as a non expert, 1250 01:18:32,120 --> 01:18:34,800 Speaker 1: because there are also things that experts either think they 1251 01:18:34,840 --> 01:18:37,920 Speaker 1: know or should know, and do not. And what we're 1252 01:18:37,960 --> 01:18:40,280 Speaker 1: seeing with this virus, I think is a lot of that. 1253 01:18:40,560 --> 01:18:42,439 Speaker 1: You know, you ask them, why is it that we 1254 01:18:42,520 --> 01:18:45,160 Speaker 1: have this six foot guidance rule? What's that? Based on 1255 01:18:45,280 --> 01:18:48,200 Speaker 1: the answer is it's a guess. There are other countries 1256 01:18:48,200 --> 01:18:50,800 Speaker 1: that have a three foot social distancing rule. Why is 1257 01:18:50,840 --> 01:18:52,920 Speaker 1: it at ten feet? How could you even enforce this. 1258 01:18:53,200 --> 01:18:56,840 Speaker 1: It's actually absurd, but it's just, you know, like telling 1259 01:18:56,840 --> 01:19:00,000 Speaker 1: people to wash their hands a lot. If washing hands 1260 01:19:00,080 --> 01:19:03,160 Speaker 1: could stop this disease from being a pandemic, obviously we'd 1261 01:19:03,200 --> 01:19:05,240 Speaker 1: be in much better shape. It's not enough. Now I 1262 01:19:05,320 --> 01:19:08,160 Speaker 1: understand all these things together, they would argue might lower 1263 01:19:08,200 --> 01:19:10,840 Speaker 1: the transmission some degree, but we're still in the middle 1264 01:19:10,840 --> 01:19:13,120 Speaker 1: of a pandemic, one for which they can't tell us 1265 01:19:13,120 --> 01:19:15,840 Speaker 1: how long immunity lasts, one for which they can't tell 1266 01:19:15,920 --> 01:19:20,519 Speaker 1: us whether a vaccine would even be good for more 1267 01:19:20,560 --> 01:19:22,400 Speaker 1: than one year, more than one side. I mean, it's 1268 01:19:22,560 --> 01:19:25,000 Speaker 1: there's all these things they just don't know. But all 1269 01:19:25,000 --> 01:19:26,479 Speaker 1: you have to do if your Democrat is go on 1270 01:19:26,520 --> 01:19:29,760 Speaker 1: TV or go on social media and say listen to 1271 01:19:29,800 --> 01:19:33,800 Speaker 1: the experts, as if that's some kind of panacea. But 1272 01:19:33,920 --> 01:19:36,360 Speaker 1: I did want it to get your take also on 1273 01:19:37,200 --> 01:19:40,120 Speaker 1: this just this was just breaking today. So it's something 1274 01:19:40,160 --> 01:19:45,360 Speaker 1: new to add into our discussions about Barry Weiss resigning 1275 01:19:45,520 --> 01:19:50,920 Speaker 1: and sending out a blistering letter of resignation. She's at 1276 01:19:50,920 --> 01:19:53,920 Speaker 1: the New York Times. Tell folks, who, why do we 1277 01:19:53,960 --> 01:19:56,240 Speaker 1: care about who Barry Weiss is? And what does this 1278 01:19:56,240 --> 01:19:58,519 Speaker 1: tell us about? What's going on with the crazy woke 1279 01:19:58,600 --> 01:20:00,920 Speaker 1: lives at the New York Times. Barry Weiss is a 1280 01:20:00,960 --> 01:20:03,040 Speaker 1: person that maybe five years ago we just call it 1281 01:20:03,520 --> 01:20:06,840 Speaker 1: a liberal, right she has She's probably more on the 1282 01:20:06,840 --> 01:20:10,000 Speaker 1: moderate side. I don't know all her positions, but she's 1283 01:20:10,040 --> 01:20:12,960 Speaker 1: you know, she's pro Israel. You know, she takes a 1284 01:20:13,040 --> 01:20:15,760 Speaker 1: more moderate view of Israel and other issues like that. 1285 01:20:15,800 --> 01:20:18,200 Speaker 1: You know, she calls that anti Semitism, even if it's 1286 01:20:18,560 --> 01:20:24,960 Speaker 1: coming from certain you know, it's coming from far Coon, etc. Yeah, Firac, 1287 01:20:26,120 --> 01:20:31,120 Speaker 1: unlike some some other editorialists. But she, as we know 1288 01:20:31,200 --> 01:20:34,280 Speaker 1: at the New York Times, you have incredibly woke and 1289 01:20:34,400 --> 01:20:38,240 Speaker 1: incredibly you know, I don't know what's called them progressive 1290 01:20:38,479 --> 01:20:40,840 Speaker 1: people who complain and I get people fired who they 1291 01:20:40,880 --> 01:20:43,840 Speaker 1: disagree with and pretend that words are violence. And she's 1292 01:20:43,880 --> 01:20:45,719 Speaker 1: on the liberal end of things, I mean the liberal 1293 01:20:45,760 --> 01:20:49,200 Speaker 1: and the small l real sense of things. And she 1294 01:20:49,400 --> 01:20:51,479 Speaker 1: was basically from what her letter says, and there's no 1295 01:20:51,560 --> 01:20:54,400 Speaker 1: reason to disbelieve it, considering all the other things we've 1296 01:20:54,400 --> 01:20:58,840 Speaker 1: seen that she was bullied and insulted and made to 1297 01:20:58,880 --> 01:21:01,599 Speaker 1: feel unwelcome there and to leave. So she wrote a letter, 1298 01:21:01,640 --> 01:21:03,679 Speaker 1: which I think is probably the best thing She's written 1299 01:21:03,960 --> 01:21:07,320 Speaker 1: fantastic letter about liberalism and liberalism and about what went 1300 01:21:07,360 --> 01:21:10,680 Speaker 1: on there in open discourse and she left. I think 1301 01:21:10,760 --> 01:21:14,200 Speaker 1: it's a it's an incredibly notable for people who are 1302 01:21:14,200 --> 01:21:16,479 Speaker 1: in journalism and writers. I think that her letter is 1303 01:21:16,520 --> 01:21:18,920 Speaker 1: incredibly important. I feel like it will be. It feels 1304 01:21:18,960 --> 01:21:21,439 Speaker 1: that way to me, and maybe it will be a 1305 01:21:21,479 --> 01:21:23,680 Speaker 1: turning point. I hope it will be. Do you think 1306 01:21:23,760 --> 01:21:26,599 Speaker 1: it's a sad sense that she might sue them? You know, 1307 01:21:26,880 --> 01:21:30,040 Speaker 1: she's kind of intimates that she will, and I hope 1308 01:21:30,040 --> 01:21:34,240 Speaker 1: she does. Actually, do you think that there's how you 1309 01:21:34,320 --> 01:21:36,960 Speaker 1: look you've worked? I know you've worked at some some 1310 01:21:37,600 --> 01:21:40,280 Speaker 1: large newspapers in the path that you worked at the 1311 01:21:40,560 --> 01:21:43,120 Speaker 1: Denver Post, and you've been at a few places in 1312 01:21:43,120 --> 01:21:46,599 Speaker 1: the past where I'm sure there were liberal journalists there. 1313 01:21:46,640 --> 01:21:50,400 Speaker 1: So do you get and you haven't worked at times 1314 01:21:50,400 --> 01:21:54,120 Speaker 1: if memory serves, But do you think that there's embarrassment 1315 01:21:54,200 --> 01:21:57,800 Speaker 1: among the employees of the newsroom who just won't come 1316 01:21:57,800 --> 01:21:59,639 Speaker 1: out and say it, or do you I know, I'll 1317 01:21:59,680 --> 01:22:01,080 Speaker 1: ask you to kind of look into Crystal Ball a 1318 01:22:01,120 --> 01:22:04,360 Speaker 1: little bit, but they can't. You can't really think you're 1319 01:22:04,400 --> 01:22:06,120 Speaker 1: a journalist and that you make you're living on free 1320 01:22:06,120 --> 01:22:08,720 Speaker 1: speech and that what's going on right now isn't insane, right? 1321 01:22:08,840 --> 01:22:11,639 Speaker 1: Or am I giving I'm talking about for the majority 1322 01:22:11,640 --> 01:22:13,160 Speaker 1: of the people that work in these places, or am 1323 01:22:13,160 --> 01:22:15,240 Speaker 1: I giving them too much credit? I think that's probably 1324 01:22:15,280 --> 01:22:17,680 Speaker 1: a large contingent that are just not you know, I 1325 01:22:17,720 --> 01:22:19,840 Speaker 1: wouldn't call them cowards, but they don't want to be fired, 1326 01:22:19,880 --> 01:22:21,760 Speaker 1: they don't want the attention. They just want to do 1327 01:22:21,800 --> 01:22:25,160 Speaker 1: whatever they're doing right, their movie reviews, whatever, right. And 1328 01:22:25,200 --> 01:22:27,760 Speaker 1: then there's a contingent the people we know on the 1329 01:22:27,840 --> 01:22:31,799 Speaker 1: editorial page and the columnists who are themselves bullies and cowards. 1330 01:22:31,800 --> 01:22:33,840 Speaker 1: And I think they're activists and they think that what 1331 01:22:33,880 --> 01:22:37,280 Speaker 1: they're doing, like a religious fanatic does, is always okay 1332 01:22:37,320 --> 01:22:40,000 Speaker 1: because they're zealous about it and they believe it really deeply. 1333 01:22:40,640 --> 01:22:44,400 Speaker 1: These are the people who you know, pedal Pseudohistoric sixty 1334 01:22:44,520 --> 01:22:47,679 Speaker 1: nineteen projects and like column at race obsessed column after 1335 01:22:47,720 --> 01:22:50,720 Speaker 1: column calling anyone who disagrees with them a racist. And 1336 01:22:50,800 --> 01:22:54,320 Speaker 1: these people on the page, and clearly including Paul Krugman, 1337 01:22:54,360 --> 01:22:58,760 Speaker 1: who does similar sorts of things, are people who see 1338 01:22:58,800 --> 01:23:02,080 Speaker 1: no problem bullying other So Paul Krugman went out of 1339 01:23:02,080 --> 01:23:04,000 Speaker 1: his way recently, he tried to get someone at the 1340 01:23:04,280 --> 01:23:07,479 Speaker 1: University of Chicago fired because he said all lives matters 1341 01:23:07,520 --> 01:23:10,080 Speaker 1: or forgot what he did some some you know, free 1342 01:23:10,080 --> 01:23:13,280 Speaker 1: speech crime or thought you know, wrong thing crime. And 1343 01:23:13,560 --> 01:23:16,000 Speaker 1: so that's I think what you know, it's a small segment, 1344 01:23:16,000 --> 01:23:18,360 Speaker 1: but it's the segment of people, the faction that run 1345 01:23:18,439 --> 01:23:21,240 Speaker 1: the paper. Barry White said that Twitter is the real 1346 01:23:21,360 --> 01:23:23,759 Speaker 1: editor of New York Times editorial page. And that's the truth. 1347 01:23:23,800 --> 01:23:26,840 Speaker 1: I think a mob runs the paper. Remember a few 1348 01:23:26,920 --> 01:23:29,040 Speaker 1: like last year or on a number of occasions, they've 1349 01:23:29,120 --> 01:23:32,960 Speaker 1: changed headlines the news such changed headlines because the Biden 1350 01:23:33,000 --> 01:23:36,040 Speaker 1: camp being cold or the Twitter got mad. They are 1351 01:23:36,080 --> 01:23:38,280 Speaker 1: They're just cowards. These are cowards that started at the 1352 01:23:38,320 --> 01:23:43,560 Speaker 1: Atlantic with Kevin Williamson's my colleague Nano being fired for 1353 01:23:43,880 --> 01:23:47,120 Speaker 1: having an opinion about something, and now we see it there. 1354 01:23:47,960 --> 01:23:51,800 Speaker 1: Damon Arsani, everybody, David keeping the fight, stay safe. Thanks 1355 01:23:51,840 --> 01:23:57,360 Speaker 1: for joining us, my friend, Thank you anytime you're in 1356 01:23:57,400 --> 01:24:00,960 Speaker 1: the freedom und This is the Buck Section Show podcast. 1357 01:24:04,840 --> 01:24:07,120 Speaker 1: I figured i'd share with you some of what this 1358 01:24:07,640 --> 01:24:10,519 Speaker 1: New York Times editor Barry Weisse puts in a resignation letter. 1359 01:24:10,560 --> 01:24:15,320 Speaker 1: Remember New York Times is the the Grand Cathedral that 1360 01:24:15,400 --> 01:24:17,400 Speaker 1: they probably wouldn't like to be called that, But you know, 1361 01:24:17,520 --> 01:24:21,760 Speaker 1: it's the I don't know what's what's the what's the 1362 01:24:21,800 --> 01:24:26,880 Speaker 1: proper way of saying it? Um, the Superdome? How about that? 1363 01:24:27,400 --> 01:24:34,360 Speaker 1: It's the superdome of leftist journalism, of democrat aligned journalism 1364 01:24:34,360 --> 01:24:37,960 Speaker 1: in America. It's it's the most elite newspaper, even more 1365 01:24:37,960 --> 01:24:42,800 Speaker 1: so really than the Washington Post. And yeah, they've lost 1366 01:24:42,800 --> 01:24:45,760 Speaker 1: their minds over there. That's that's for sure. Barry Weiss 1367 01:24:45,920 --> 01:24:50,880 Speaker 1: in her resignation letter, how's the following? Um, this is 1368 01:24:51,000 --> 01:24:53,519 Speaker 1: I guess for this is to Salzburger, the guy who 1369 01:24:53,760 --> 01:24:56,360 Speaker 1: owns it, runs it. It is with sadness that I 1370 01:24:56,400 --> 01:24:58,680 Speaker 1: write to tell you I'm resigning from New York Times. 1371 01:24:58,720 --> 01:25:01,400 Speaker 1: I joined the paper with gratitude, an optimism three years ago. 1372 01:25:02,040 --> 01:25:05,240 Speaker 1: Blah blah, a voice to bring other voices, blah blah 1373 01:25:05,320 --> 01:25:08,600 Speaker 1: blah blah. Okay, here we go, good stuff. Twitter is 1374 01:25:08,680 --> 01:25:11,519 Speaker 1: not on the masthead of The New York Times, but 1375 01:25:11,680 --> 01:25:14,960 Speaker 1: Twitter has become its ultimate editor. As the ethics and 1376 01:25:15,040 --> 01:25:17,559 Speaker 1: mores of that platform have become those of the paper. 1377 01:25:18,040 --> 01:25:21,920 Speaker 1: The paper itself has increasingly become a kind of performance space. 1378 01:25:22,760 --> 01:25:26,000 Speaker 1: Stories are chosen and told in a way to satisfy 1379 01:25:26,120 --> 01:25:29,559 Speaker 1: the narrowest of audiences, rather than to allow a curious 1380 01:25:29,600 --> 01:25:32,200 Speaker 1: public to read about the world and then draw their 1381 01:25:32,240 --> 01:25:36,080 Speaker 1: own conclusions. I was always taught that journalists were charged 1382 01:25:36,080 --> 01:25:38,799 Speaker 1: with writing the first draft, a rough draft of history. 1383 01:25:39,200 --> 01:25:43,200 Speaker 1: Now history itself is one more ephemeral thing, molded to 1384 01:25:43,240 --> 01:25:47,559 Speaker 1: fit the needs of a predetermined narrative. Wow, I mean, 1385 01:25:47,560 --> 01:25:50,080 Speaker 1: this isn't surprise at all. Right, it's just somebody from 1386 01:25:50,080 --> 01:25:53,120 Speaker 1: the inside, a liberal, my friends, who would disagree with 1387 01:25:53,200 --> 01:25:57,840 Speaker 1: you listening to this on ninety percent of stuff in life, 1388 01:25:57,920 --> 01:26:01,040 Speaker 1: or maybe seventy percent. She's a little less crazy than 1389 01:26:01,080 --> 01:26:03,400 Speaker 1: some of the others, but I would disagree with you 1390 01:26:03,400 --> 01:26:06,000 Speaker 1: almost all the time. And was an editor at this paper. 1391 01:26:06,040 --> 01:26:08,760 Speaker 1: And she's resigning, and she is telling you what I 1392 01:26:08,920 --> 01:26:11,160 Speaker 1: tell you every day about the New York Times, and 1393 01:26:11,200 --> 01:26:15,160 Speaker 1: what you know about the New York Times is in 1394 01:26:15,240 --> 01:26:21,200 Speaker 1: fact entirely true. It's true. I'm not I'm not exaggerating 1395 01:26:21,400 --> 01:26:24,800 Speaker 1: Murra right wing radio. Ur. I'm not sitting here, you know, 1396 01:26:24,800 --> 01:26:26,599 Speaker 1: I don't know where they hate him. And it's terrible, 1397 01:26:26,640 --> 01:26:29,360 Speaker 1: you know, I'm not doing any of that. I'm just 1398 01:26:30,000 --> 01:26:37,000 Speaker 1: telling you the truth, and it's amazing that this is 1399 01:26:37,040 --> 01:26:41,280 Speaker 1: what it's come to. The most famous newspaper are arguably, 1400 01:26:41,320 --> 01:26:45,320 Speaker 1: I think pretty clearly in the country is run by 1401 01:26:45,439 --> 01:26:48,960 Speaker 1: She says, Twitter and the opinion of Libs on that 1402 01:26:49,040 --> 01:26:52,519 Speaker 1: social media platform, I mean, Twitter has effectively destroyed the 1403 01:26:52,560 --> 01:26:57,160 Speaker 1: facade of journalism because you have all these people who 1404 01:26:57,240 --> 01:26:59,479 Speaker 1: now don't have to go through an editor, don't have 1405 01:26:59,520 --> 01:27:02,519 Speaker 1: any quality control over their sharing of thoughts, and they're 1406 01:27:02,520 --> 01:27:05,760 Speaker 1: telling us I'm a huge leftist, I'm a Marxist, I'm 1407 01:27:05,800 --> 01:27:08,960 Speaker 1: a lunatic social justice warrior. Oh, I'm now just covering 1408 01:27:09,040 --> 01:27:11,519 Speaker 1: national politics on the front page of the New York Times, 1409 01:27:11,520 --> 01:27:14,360 Speaker 1: and I swear I have no bias, as if we're 1410 01:27:14,360 --> 01:27:17,639 Speaker 1: all morons right, as if we don't know exactly what's 1411 01:27:17,680 --> 01:27:20,880 Speaker 1: going on there. A little more from her resignation letter, 1412 01:27:21,200 --> 01:27:23,840 Speaker 1: My own forays into wrong think have made me the 1413 01:27:23,840 --> 01:27:27,960 Speaker 1: subjects of constant bullying by colleagues who disagree with my views. 1414 01:27:28,080 --> 01:27:31,920 Speaker 1: They have called me a Nazi and a racist. I 1415 01:27:31,960 --> 01:27:34,679 Speaker 1: have learned to brush off comments about how I'm writing 1416 01:27:34,800 --> 01:27:39,240 Speaker 1: about the Jews. Again, several colleagues perceived to be friendly 1417 01:27:39,280 --> 01:27:43,400 Speaker 1: with me were badgered by coworkers my work and my 1418 01:27:43,520 --> 01:27:48,400 Speaker 1: character are openly demeaned on companywide slack channels, where masked 1419 01:27:48,400 --> 01:27:52,880 Speaker 1: head editors regularly weigh in. There. Some coworkers insist I 1420 01:27:52,920 --> 01:27:55,519 Speaker 1: need to be rooted out if this company is to 1421 01:27:55,600 --> 01:28:00,120 Speaker 1: be a truly inclusive one, while others post ax emojis 1422 01:28:00,120 --> 01:28:03,360 Speaker 1: next to my name. Wow. Still, other New York Times 1423 01:28:03,360 --> 01:28:07,360 Speaker 1: employees publicly smear me as a liar and a bigot 1424 01:28:07,400 --> 01:28:10,479 Speaker 1: on Twitter, with no fear that harassing me will be 1425 01:28:10,560 --> 01:28:15,759 Speaker 1: met with appropriate action. They never are. There are terms 1426 01:28:15,760 --> 01:28:21,280 Speaker 1: for all of this unlawful discrimination, hostile work environment, and 1427 01:28:21,400 --> 01:28:25,840 Speaker 1: constructive discharge. I'm known legal expert, but I know that 1428 01:28:25,880 --> 01:28:30,920 Speaker 1: this is wrong. Oh yes, sue them. Go for it.

Both of these sound decadent and delicious. 1470 01:31:11,320 --> 01:31:14,360 Speaker 1: Unable to decide which of these to have tonight, so 1471 01:31:14,400 --> 01:31:16,680 Speaker 1: I decided to have both. I want you to know 1472 01:31:16,920 --> 01:31:20,479 Speaker 1: the meal was amazing. Not surprised. The two go together 1473 01:31:20,560 --> 01:31:23,559 Speaker 1: perfectly and should become your sign your dish. Thanks for 1474 01:31:23,600 --> 01:31:25,760 Speaker 1: the food tips, and keep up the good fight. She'll 1475 01:31:25,760 --> 01:31:28,280 Speaker 1: tell my friends. Now I'm off to a food coma. Jim, 1476 01:31:29,200 --> 01:31:32,040 Speaker 1: you made us. It's a power move, my friend. That's 1477 01:31:32,040 --> 01:31:35,080 Speaker 1: some good stuff. Making sure that you have what you 1478 01:31:35,160 --> 01:31:42,040 Speaker 1: need on the plate. Let's producer Mark. If I if 1479 01:31:42,080 --> 01:31:44,679 Speaker 1: I told you that tonight you were going to have 1480 01:31:44,960 --> 01:31:51,639 Speaker 1: a fantastic steak cut of your choice, perfectly cooked and seasoned, 1481 01:31:52,200 --> 01:31:57,439 Speaker 1: or a really excellent creamy spaghetti carbonara, but you can 1482 01:31:57,479 --> 01:32:01,040 Speaker 1: only have one. Which would you go? That is a 1483 01:32:01,080 --> 01:32:04,880 Speaker 1: tough choice, Buck, I think so too. Actually, they're both 1484 01:32:04,920 --> 01:32:08,639 Speaker 1: so good. I go steak just because I think that's 1485 01:32:08,680 --> 01:32:11,640 Speaker 1: my favorite thing. Yeah, I probably go steak too. But 1486 01:32:11,720 --> 01:32:13,120 Speaker 1: what's on the side of the steak? Maybe and I 1487 01:32:13,120 --> 01:32:16,439 Speaker 1: speaked potato? Yeah, something like that. If you get you know, 1488 01:32:16,520 --> 01:32:18,160 Speaker 1: you gotta have some kind of a starch. I guess 1489 01:32:18,680 --> 01:32:23,920 Speaker 1: steakhouse sides are good, but you know, you get more 1490 01:32:24,040 --> 01:32:26,240 Speaker 1: variety that you go to a steakhouse for steak, maybe 1491 01:32:26,280 --> 01:32:30,519 Speaker 1: for the seafood. Sometimes the sides are good. Um anyway, Yeah, 1492 01:32:30,560 --> 01:32:32,760 Speaker 1: I'm making myself hungry, man, it's not even dinner time 1493 01:32:32,760 --> 01:32:35,120 Speaker 1: for me making myself hungry to staking about this. But yeah, no, 1494 01:32:35,240 --> 01:32:37,960 Speaker 1: carbonara is my favorite. You told me your favorite pasta 1495 01:32:38,000 --> 01:32:42,840 Speaker 1: was ravioli. Uh no, I don't even remember. If No, 1496 01:32:42,920 --> 01:32:45,679 Speaker 1: that was not my favorite. Rigatoni was Producer Nick's favorite. 1497 01:32:45,920 --> 01:32:50,360 Speaker 1: Rigatoni was producer Nicks. I guess i'd go Penny Alivadka. Yeah, 1498 01:32:50,400 --> 01:32:54,519 Speaker 1: maybe some tortellini. All right now, I really am getting hungry. 1499 01:32:54,600 --> 01:32:59,960 Speaker 1: D Buck. My husband and I met you on July four, 1500 01:33:00,240 --> 01:33:05,120 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen at the Trump International Hotel Cool. We live 1501 01:33:05,120 --> 01:33:07,120 Speaker 1: in Mississippi. We listen to you on the radio today. 1502 01:33:07,120 --> 01:33:08,920 Speaker 1: You said that there aren't enough people standing up for 1503 01:33:08,960 --> 01:33:11,559 Speaker 1: what is right. I'm ready. Please give us some insight 1504 01:33:11,640 --> 01:33:13,760 Speaker 1: on how we need to start. Should we start having 1505 01:33:13,760 --> 01:33:17,080 Speaker 1: peaceful protests locally and try to build from there. We 1506 01:33:17,120 --> 01:33:19,360 Speaker 1: are ready to stand up for America. I think that's 1507 01:33:19,600 --> 01:33:22,080 Speaker 1: what we will call our group. We still need some 1508 01:33:22,120 --> 01:33:24,400 Speaker 1: advice from you. D I think you got, first of all, 1509 01:33:24,479 --> 01:33:26,719 Speaker 1: very lovely meeting you in the husband and yes, indeed 1510 01:33:26,760 --> 01:33:29,080 Speaker 1: I was on July fourth, twenty nineteen at the Trump 1511 01:33:29,200 --> 01:33:32,439 Speaker 1: Hotel in DC, so that is accurate. That is true. 1512 01:33:33,360 --> 01:33:37,600 Speaker 1: And as for how to get going and how to mobilize, 1513 01:33:37,720 --> 01:33:39,519 Speaker 1: I think that you're on the right track. I think 1514 01:33:39,520 --> 01:33:42,519 Speaker 1: that you've pretty much got it. Do as you were 1515 01:33:42,520 --> 01:33:45,720 Speaker 1: planning on doing here, get up and running on it, 1516 01:33:45,760 --> 01:33:51,240 Speaker 1: you know, just do your thing. Local organizations very important. 1517 01:33:51,240 --> 01:33:53,920 Speaker 1: With social media, there's a lot of reach and power 1518 01:33:53,960 --> 01:33:56,439 Speaker 1: that you can have, especially if the movement, you know, 1519 01:33:56,560 --> 01:34:01,000 Speaker 1: if you are on message and people seeing like they're 1520 01:34:01,000 --> 01:34:03,240 Speaker 1: both energized. But also think of the way that we 1521 01:34:03,280 --> 01:34:09,719 Speaker 1: could have such a differentiation between conservative mobilization, Republican Party 1522 01:34:09,760 --> 01:34:14,320 Speaker 1: people voting for Trump, and how we would have orderly, safe, 1523 01:34:14,880 --> 01:34:22,760 Speaker 1: respectful protest or respectful demonstrations versus the anarchy, absurdity and 1524 01:34:22,760 --> 01:34:27,040 Speaker 1: a viciousness of these lib protesters who are out there. 1525 01:34:27,360 --> 01:34:31,600 Speaker 1: So there you go. Yeah, I think d that's the 1526 01:34:31,600 --> 01:34:33,439 Speaker 1: way to do it, and I think your instincts are 1527 01:34:33,439 --> 01:34:35,320 Speaker 1: spot on. I would just go for it. And to 1528 01:34:35,439 --> 01:34:40,120 Speaker 1: say hi to the hubs for me, shield Tie Toby Buck, 1529 01:34:40,200 --> 01:34:43,000 Speaker 1: I am crushed upon hearing about Jay Severn. I'm a 1530 01:34:43,040 --> 01:34:46,439 Speaker 1: fan from Boston and he introduced me to conservative talk 1531 01:34:46,560 --> 01:34:49,479 Speaker 1: radio when he had the afternoon show. Even a liberal Boston. 1532 01:34:49,520 --> 01:34:53,040 Speaker 1: He was a giant. Very saddened and Toby, I totally 1533 01:34:53,080 --> 01:34:56,519 Speaker 1: appreciate and understand that Jay Severn was. He was a 1534 01:34:56,560 --> 01:34:59,920 Speaker 1: real radio host. And I mean that in I think 1535 01:35:00,040 --> 01:35:01,640 Speaker 1: he would know that too. I mean that as a 1536 01:35:01,720 --> 01:35:04,160 Speaker 1: term of real respect. You know, he was. He was 1537 01:35:04,200 --> 01:35:07,559 Speaker 1: the real deal. He wasn't somebody that just uh, you know, 1538 01:35:07,840 --> 01:35:10,840 Speaker 1: was able to play the corporate game and you know, 1539 01:35:10,920 --> 01:35:13,479 Speaker 1: have a lot of guests on or hang on to 1540 01:35:13,600 --> 01:35:17,120 Speaker 1: somebody else's coattails to get a radio show. Uh, and 1541 01:35:17,160 --> 01:35:20,240 Speaker 1: you know, get on get on stations. I mean, he 1542 01:35:20,240 --> 01:35:22,880 Speaker 1: he's really good. He was good at radio. He was 1543 01:35:22,920 --> 01:35:26,320 Speaker 1: talented at that medium and was a guy who did 1544 01:35:26,360 --> 01:35:29,599 Speaker 1: his own thinking. And look, I know that he had 1545 01:35:29,600 --> 01:35:31,880 Speaker 1: he got into some hot water here and there for 1546 01:35:31,920 --> 01:35:35,080 Speaker 1: what he said. Um, but that's because he was a 1547 01:35:35,080 --> 01:35:36,880 Speaker 1: guy who was pushing it along the edge and that 1548 01:35:36,920 --> 01:35:42,439 Speaker 1: makes for interesting radio. And I always appreciated he. We 1549 01:35:42,439 --> 01:35:45,120 Speaker 1: weren't close or anything like that, but I could speak 1550 01:35:45,120 --> 01:35:47,360 Speaker 1: to him about the business and especially it was very 1551 01:35:47,360 --> 01:35:51,360 Speaker 1: early for me and he, and there was a respect 1552 01:35:51,400 --> 01:35:54,559 Speaker 1: between us whenever we talked about this because he knew 1553 01:35:54,680 --> 01:35:56,559 Speaker 1: right away and said that I was. I was a 1554 01:35:56,560 --> 01:35:59,880 Speaker 1: real radio guy. And he recognized that and said that 1555 01:35:59,920 --> 01:36:01,639 Speaker 1: you're gonna have a very You're gonna have a very 1556 01:36:01,640 --> 01:36:03,920 Speaker 1: big career if you keep doing this. And Jay was 1557 01:36:03,960 --> 01:36:06,479 Speaker 1: not a warm and fuzzy kind of a guy, but 1558 01:36:06,560 --> 01:36:09,040 Speaker 1: he you know, game respects game kind of a thing. 1559 01:36:09,600 --> 01:36:11,960 Speaker 1: And I always listened to Jay as somebody who I knew. 1560 01:36:12,000 --> 01:36:13,400 Speaker 1: The only reason this guy had a radio show is 1561 01:36:13,400 --> 01:36:17,760 Speaker 1: because he was good at this. That's not true about everybody. Um, 1562 01:36:18,680 --> 01:36:24,680 Speaker 1: let's see here, James Buck. Anyway, I also pardon me, 1563 01:36:24,720 --> 01:36:27,240 Speaker 1: just to finish off with with Severn. Um, you know, 1564 01:36:27,360 --> 01:36:30,120 Speaker 1: thoughts and prayers to his family, and it was it 1565 01:36:30,200 --> 01:36:33,439 Speaker 1: was said, look, we've lost. It wasn't even planning going here. 1566 01:36:33,439 --> 01:36:37,760 Speaker 1: We've lost Jay Severn this year from the you know, 1567 01:36:37,800 --> 01:36:39,960 Speaker 1: the world of media that I've operated in. Someone that 1568 01:36:40,000 --> 01:36:44,519 Speaker 1: was a colleague of mine. We lost Doc Thompson a 1569 01:36:44,800 --> 01:36:49,439 Speaker 1: terrible accident. You know, it's we've lost. Those are two 1570 01:36:49,479 --> 01:36:51,439 Speaker 1: guys I worked with at the Blaze, and they were 1571 01:36:51,479 --> 01:36:58,240 Speaker 1: taken way before their time. So make everyday count, folks, 1572 01:36:58,680 --> 01:37:02,000 Speaker 1: Make everyday count. I know it's maybe trite to say, 1573 01:37:02,640 --> 01:37:08,160 Speaker 1: tried to hear, but it's still true. James Buck. I 1574 01:37:08,200 --> 01:37:10,479 Speaker 1: don't know if you've talked about this. Now, we are 1575 01:37:10,560 --> 01:37:13,360 Speaker 1: being more or even more forced to wear a mask 1576 01:37:14,080 --> 01:37:16,160 Speaker 1: at stores. If you don't in all of New York State, 1577 01:37:16,200 --> 01:37:18,680 Speaker 1: you can get a thousand dollars fine, and stores will 1578 01:37:18,680 --> 01:37:21,320 Speaker 1: get a two thousand dollars fine. Cops can get called 1579 01:37:21,400 --> 01:37:24,120 Speaker 1: on you. To me, this is unconstitutional and in my 1580 01:37:24,240 --> 01:37:27,599 Speaker 1: view illegal, with the fine, they are wasting or our 1581 01:37:27,640 --> 01:37:30,920 Speaker 1: emergency resources to arrest maskless people. She'll tie from w 1582 01:37:31,160 --> 01:37:35,200 Speaker 1: G y up in Albany, James, New York is going nuts.

I mean, 1590 01:37:54,720 --> 01:38:02,400 Speaker 1: people die from things that happens. And the mask mandates 1591 01:38:02,400 --> 01:38:08,479 Speaker 1: are only going to get more extreme.

You know what? The chances are that 1620 01:39:18,640 --> 01:39:21,519 Speaker 1: they're antagonizing a guy who doesn't have a virus, who 1621 01:39:21,520 --> 01:39:23,760 Speaker 1: has nothing to spread to anybody. It's about ninety nine. 1622 01:39:26,400 --> 01:39:28,760 Speaker 1: That's how insane people are. Now.

It's really interesting advertising strategy 1625 01:39:38,920 --> 01:39:42,640 Speaker 1: by Costco there. They keep sending in people without a 1626 01:39:42,640 --> 01:39:46,479 Speaker 1: masks so they get videotaped in Costcos. It's not sure 1627 01:39:46,560 --> 01:39:48,840 Speaker 1: that's necessarily the kind of it's definitely not the truth. 1628 01:39:48,880 --> 01:39:52,599 Speaker 1: But if it wasn't, I know what you're saying, I'll 1629 01:39:52,680 --> 01:39:54,360 Speaker 1: get you. Yeah, this mask thing is going to be. 1630 01:39:55,280 --> 01:39:58,000 Speaker 1: This is going to continue on and look were really 1631 01:39:58,000 --> 01:40:00,800 Speaker 1: what we really need is we need to run experiments 1632 01:40:01,479 --> 01:40:03,800 Speaker 1: with people wearing masks, and you know, we have to 1633 01:40:03,840 --> 01:40:06,559 Speaker 1: do this. We're gon we're gonna have to run some 1634 01:40:06,560 --> 01:40:12,160 Speaker 1: some true, controlled, gold standard mask experiments and I will 1635 01:40:12,240 --> 01:40:15,360 Speaker 1: bet money that they will find out if and when 1636 01:40:15,360 --> 01:40:16,800 Speaker 1: they no. But they're going to try not to do 1637 01:40:16,840 --> 01:40:20,280 Speaker 1: this because think of what that would mean for the 1638 01:40:20,320 --> 01:40:23,639 Speaker 1: global health community and all the experts. We've we've been 1639 01:40:23,640 --> 01:40:26,920 Speaker 1: masking people thinking that it protects. It's one thing, you know, Yeah, 1640 01:40:26,960 --> 01:40:29,120 Speaker 1: it prevents you from spitting on somebody if you're up close. 1641 01:40:29,240 --> 01:40:32,200 Speaker 1: If a doctor is going to be examining you. You know, 1642 01:40:32,240 --> 01:40:34,280 Speaker 1: you don't have their breath directly on you. So there's 1643 01:40:34,320 --> 01:40:37,200 Speaker 1: some just sort of general hygiene field, dude, But in 1644 01:40:37,280 --> 01:40:42,439 Speaker 1: terms of preventing viral spread of respiratory droplets that spread virus, 1645 01:40:43,160 --> 01:40:46,400 Speaker 1: I look, I'm I would be fascinated to see a 1646 01:40:46,560 --> 01:40:49,120 Speaker 1: real study or you have Okay, let's have a bunch 1647 01:40:49,120 --> 01:40:50,759 Speaker 1: of people in a room for an hour with somebody 1648 01:40:50,760 --> 01:40:55,880 Speaker 1: who has COVID, and you know, you have a bunch 1649 01:40:55,920 --> 01:40:57,960 Speaker 1: of volunteers who are in there. Everyone's wearing masks, and 1650 01:40:58,000 --> 01:40:59,800 Speaker 1: they're all in a room together for an hour, and like, 1651 01:40:59,840 --> 01:41:01,160 Speaker 1: how many of them get it and how many of 1652 01:41:01,160 --> 01:41:02,840 Speaker 1: them don't? I mean, I don't know how you'd even 1653 01:41:02,880 --> 01:41:05,600 Speaker 1: construct the experiment so that it would be definitive, but 1654 01:41:05,640 --> 01:41:10,720 Speaker 1: get as close to it as possible. That's that's what 1655 01:41:10,760 --> 01:41:13,439 Speaker 1: I would want to see, because I just if it 1656 01:41:13,520 --> 01:41:15,559 Speaker 1: was just as easy as wearing masks, we wouldn't have, 1657 01:41:15,600 --> 01:41:17,559 Speaker 1: you know, the problem, we wouldn't have this problem. People 1658 01:41:17,600 --> 01:41:25,000 Speaker 1: have been wearing masks four months, for months still, hundreds 1659 01:41:25,040 --> 01:41:31,120 Speaker 1: of thousands of cases all the time. Anyway, I just 1660 01:41:34,160 --> 01:41:36,200 Speaker 1: I wish, I wish it were as simple as just 1661 01:41:36,800 --> 01:41:45,760 Speaker 1: browbeat those evil Republicans into wearing masks, Dave, Dude, I'm 1662 01:41:45,800 --> 01:41:48,639 Speaker 1: an observer on Facebook for the most part. Love seeing 1663 01:41:48,680 --> 01:41:53,160 Speaker 1: people's kids, picks, family vacation, etc. God forbid you try 1664 01:41:53,200 --> 01:41:56,040 Speaker 1: to be nice and respond to anything political. People freak out. 1665 01:41:56,400 --> 01:41:58,160 Speaker 1: I have no idea how you do what you do. 1666 01:41:58,360 --> 01:42:01,400 Speaker 1: You have much thicker skin than I do. My friend, Dave, 1667 01:42:01,840 --> 01:42:04,000 Speaker 1: you will freak out of me all the time. The 1668 01:42:04,080 --> 01:42:06,640 Speaker 1: thing is, and even who freaks out is inherently an 1669 01:42:06,680 --> 01:42:09,960 Speaker 1: unstable loser. And you just you learned it very quickly. 1670 01:42:10,000 --> 01:42:13,400 Speaker 1: You're like, what is wrong with people? You know what 1671 01:42:13,600 --> 01:42:19,479 Speaker 1: is wrong with them? So there's that you just got. 1672 01:42:19,520 --> 01:42:21,160 Speaker 1: You Just gotta roll with it, man, just gotta roll 1673 01:42:21,200 --> 01:42:26,280 Speaker 1: with it. You're in the freedom. Huh. This is the 1674 01:42:26,400 --> 01:42:33,280 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show podcast. All right, more roll called John. 1675 01:42:34,840 --> 01:42:37,320 Speaker 1: Listen to your Friday night show right now on podcast. 1676 01:42:38,320 --> 01:42:40,240 Speaker 1: Heard your response to Frank at the end. Heard you 1677 01:42:40,280 --> 01:42:43,200 Speaker 1: mention getting a PS four and hopping on some call 1678 01:42:43,240 --> 01:42:46,160 Speaker 1: of duty. Man. I haven't been out of work due 1679 01:42:46,160 --> 01:42:49,840 Speaker 1: to COVID because I work in water distribution. However, my 1680 01:42:49,920 --> 01:42:53,240 Speaker 1: job has had me quarantine to home outside of work 1681 01:42:53,280 --> 01:42:55,240 Speaker 1: hours to ensure we don't bring it in the rest 1682 01:42:55,240 --> 01:42:58,479 Speaker 1: of the staff, minus working out or binge watching movies 1683 01:42:58,479 --> 01:43:01,160 Speaker 1: and TV with my wife. My life has been bourbon 1684 01:43:01,280 --> 01:43:04,439 Speaker 1: and Call of Duty. If you do, indeed get a 1685 01:43:04,439 --> 01:43:06,200 Speaker 1: PS four and hop off for Call of Duty, give 1686 01:43:06,240 --> 01:43:09,000 Speaker 1: me a holler. We can start a Freedom Hutshields High team, 1687 01:43:09,280 --> 01:43:11,920 Speaker 1: keep up the good fight and God bless John. This 1688 01:43:12,000 --> 01:43:13,960 Speaker 1: may have to happen. I kind of like this idea 1689 01:43:14,000 --> 01:43:15,960 Speaker 1: we started. We start a team freedom hunt on Call 1690 01:43:16,000 --> 01:43:17,960 Speaker 1: of Duty and I'll play, and we could all talk 1691 01:43:18,000 --> 01:43:19,880 Speaker 1: and play Call of Duty together with whoever wants to 1692 01:43:19,880 --> 01:43:22,200 Speaker 1: show up and do it. That producer mark, do you 1693 01:43:22,240 --> 01:43:25,000 Speaker 1: ever do Call of Duty? I've dabbled, but not as 1694 01:43:25,120 --> 01:43:28,160 Speaker 1: much as some of the more extreams do. I played. 1695 01:43:28,200 --> 01:43:30,240 Speaker 1: My older brother and I were playing together of the weekend. 1696 01:43:30,240 --> 01:43:33,960 Speaker 1: We had a lot of fun, and I am getting 1697 01:43:34,080 --> 01:43:37,400 Speaker 1: less terrible at it. I'm a I'm sort of freakishly 1698 01:43:37,520 --> 01:43:41,439 Speaker 1: good at the FIFA soccer game, like I have a 1699 01:43:41,439 --> 01:43:44,439 Speaker 1: lot of ability there for whatever reason, well because I've 1700 01:43:44,439 --> 01:43:47,240 Speaker 1: played it a lot in my youth and I just 1701 01:43:47,320 --> 01:43:49,640 Speaker 1: understand soccer well, which I shouldn't admix. It makes me 1702 01:43:49,680 --> 01:43:54,200 Speaker 1: sound less American. But Call of Duty, man, these guys 1703 01:43:54,320 --> 01:43:57,599 Speaker 1: people are really fast with those controls. I just gotta 1704 01:43:57,600 --> 01:43:59,400 Speaker 1: say they're very good. That's why I don't play any 1705 01:43:59,439 --> 01:44:02,280 Speaker 1: of the shooter aims often is because I'm so bad 1706 01:44:02,360 --> 01:44:05,479 Speaker 1: at them in comparison to everyone else. Yeah. I also 1707 01:44:05,600 --> 01:44:10,519 Speaker 1: sometimes I get I shouldn't admit this on the radio, 1708 01:44:10,800 --> 01:44:14,520 Speaker 1: but I'm the guy that someone will sneak up behind 1709 01:44:15,360 --> 01:44:17,639 Speaker 1: when I have a fully automatic weapon and they have 1710 01:44:17,720 --> 01:44:21,160 Speaker 1: a knife, and they will knife me, and then they'll 1711 01:44:21,200 --> 01:44:24,240 Speaker 1: squat on my corpse and I'll hear someone screaming over 1712 01:44:24,280 --> 01:44:28,920 Speaker 1: their headset. That's right, Neube, that's right. Most like, why 1713 01:44:28,960 --> 01:44:31,280 Speaker 1: do you have to be so mean? You already stuck 1714 01:44:31,320 --> 01:44:35,719 Speaker 1: a knife in me from behind? That's what ends up happening. 1715 01:44:36,439 --> 01:44:38,840 Speaker 1: Mark rights Buck, please explain on your show why a 1716 01:44:38,840 --> 01:44:41,080 Speaker 1: governor can declare a state of emergency and why they 1717 01:44:41,080 --> 01:44:43,519 Speaker 1: appear to have no limits on their power during this 1718 01:44:43,640 --> 01:44:47,559 Speaker 1: time period with no expiration date in sight. Why are 1719 01:44:47,640 --> 01:44:51,760 Speaker 1: our Republican state legislators not fighting back anywhere? Why our 1720 01:44:51,800 --> 01:44:54,439 Speaker 1: business is not pooling money to sue. Why are these 1721 01:44:54,439 --> 01:44:56,920 Speaker 1: powers not being challenged in the courts. Why is there 1722 01:44:56,960 --> 01:44:59,360 Speaker 1: not a tsunami of lawsuits across the country finding these 1723 01:44:59,479 --> 01:45:02,559 Speaker 1: arbitrary hours. How can how long can a government governor 1724 01:45:02,600 --> 01:45:05,240 Speaker 1: maintain these emergency powers? Because to me, it seems the 1725 01:45:05,240 --> 01:45:09,240 Speaker 1: answer is forever. Mark, you are absolutely correct. It does 1726 01:45:09,280 --> 01:45:11,280 Speaker 1: seem like it's forever. It seems like it's at their 1727 01:45:11,320 --> 01:45:15,799 Speaker 1: whim and there's no stopping this, and it's just absurd. 1728 01:45:16,439 --> 01:45:22,400 Speaker 1: It is just it's just I don't know, Dio Jane. 1729 01:45:22,400 --> 01:45:25,639 Speaker 1: He's to start suing. We need we need some legal 1730 01:45:25,680 --> 01:45:29,240 Speaker 1: pushback on this against the states. They're out of control. 1731 01:45:30,479 --> 01:45:36,040 Speaker 1: So it's nuts, Brent, right, San, I hope you and 1732 01:45:36,080 --> 01:45:38,599 Speaker 1: Mark get a laugh out of this. My gym Crunch 1733 01:45:38,880 --> 01:45:41,519 Speaker 1: Fitness in Ohio is making us wear masks when we 1734 01:45:41,600 --> 01:45:44,160 Speaker 1: walk in and as we walk around from equipment to 1735 01:45:44,200 --> 01:45:47,760 Speaker 1: equipment aka about five minutes of my workout. The other 1736 01:45:47,800 --> 01:45:51,320 Speaker 1: hour plus of my workout, I'm allowed to spread all 1737 01:45:51,479 --> 01:45:57,000 Speaker 1: the germs I want. Follow the science. Yeah, man, this 1738 01:45:57,120 --> 01:46:01,160 Speaker 1: is just it's just nonsense. What people say, just nonsense. 1739 01:46:01,520 --> 01:46:03,439 Speaker 1: What's going on with a lot of these restrictions to 1740 01:46:03,560 --> 01:46:08,360 Speaker 1: just counter it's counterintuitive, it's irrational, it's irrational. You don't 1741 01:46:08,360 --> 01:46:10,080 Speaker 1: have to be an expert to know when something's irrational. 1742 01:46:10,120 --> 01:46:11,680 Speaker 1: You just have to be a smart person who's not 1743 01:46:11,720 --> 01:46:14,800 Speaker 1: afraid of the truth and knowing the truth. Well, that's 1744 01:46:14,840 --> 01:46:16,439 Speaker 1: why you're here in the Hut, my friends, because you 1745 01:46:16,479 --> 01:46:17,960 Speaker 1: know we are not afraid of it.
