1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of The Klay, Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:04,680 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. 3 00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:05,800 Speaker 2: Welcome in. 4 00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:09,760 Speaker 1: We are rolling into the Wednesday edition. 5 00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:16,680 Speaker 3: From all signs pointing towards Iran, continuing what exactly is 6 00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:19,360 Speaker 3: going to happen there? We will give you the absolute 7 00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:24,639 Speaker 3: latest good numbers on inflation, oil and gas prices. The 8 00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:30,480 Speaker 3: number one story, I would say right now in at 9 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:37,519 Speaker 3: MSNBC and let's see not the case at CNN or 10 00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 3: at Fox News. Doing all my reading getting ready for 11 00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 3: the show today, what stood out to me is several 12 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:49,280 Speaker 3: different things that I want to dive into with Buck 13 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:53,239 Speaker 3: here off the top, but there are quotes from President 14 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:57,279 Speaker 3: Trump via Axios a conversation that. 15 00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 1: He had and I grabbed. 16 00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 3: One of those quotes is not audio, but President Trump 17 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:08,360 Speaker 3: told Axios anytime I want the war to end, it 18 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 3: will end UH and Buck, I think that is likely true. 19 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,320 Speaker 3: And here is to me still the big question that 20 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 3: we have been asking since this all started. Who is 21 00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 3: the acceptable leader for Iran that would allow this UH 22 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 3: situation in Iran to end in some way with the 23 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 3: understanding that we would now at least the Iranians would 24 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 3: know that at any point in time we could decapitate 25 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 3: their leader. If this son of Kamene is still alive, 26 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 3: Moktaba or however you pronounce his name. 27 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:45,279 Speaker 2: If. 28 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 3: Taba like much tabah. If he's still alive, I have 29 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 3: not an accent. 30 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 2: Guy. 31 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 3: I can't do accents. I can do do my voice, 32 00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 3: and that's pretty much it. So if he he's still alive, 33 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 3: which I think is very much in question because they're 34 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 3: dancing around with cardboard cutouts of him. If you didn't 35 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:12,079 Speaker 3: see that as the representation of their new leader, here 36 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,079 Speaker 3: is what I would say, if he is still alive 37 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 3: and if he is able to recover, because there are 38 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 3: reports that if he is still alive, that he is 39 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 3: severely injured and was harmed quite a lot in the 40 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 3: blast that took place to begin this onslaught in Iran. 41 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 3: His dad, his son, his wife, and his mom were 42 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 3: reportedly all killed in the one of those opening attacks. 43 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 3: Let me just put this to you, Buck and to 44 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 3: all of you out there, would you be very fond 45 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 3: or willing to work in an expeditious and pleasing fashion 46 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 3: if a country killed your dad, your mom, your wife, 47 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 3: and your son. 48 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: I would submit to you that. 49 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 3: If he is still alive, it is a non starter 50 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,799 Speaker 3: that he could be the leader left in charge in Iran, 51 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 3: because I would not blame him. I would want America 52 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 3: to die on a level that, frankly, or any other 53 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,639 Speaker 3: country that did this, on a level that would burn 54 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 3: in my soul for the rest of my life. I 55 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,920 Speaker 3: think this could actually be worse because it's you know, 56 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 3: you wounded, you didn't kill a terrorist. That doesn't seem 57 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 3: my deal there. You've done a lot of this study 58 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 3: terrorists who are wounded and don't die often end up 59 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 3: being the most virulent of terrorists in their future years. 60 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 3: So I would start with this, Him being in charge 61 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 3: is unacceptable. And so I don't know if we have 62 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 3: a leader that is acceptable, but I would say if 63 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 3: he's alive, he is an unacceptable heir to the Iranian leadership. 64 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 4: I think that we have seen the total military intelligence 65 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 4: and particularly aerial superiority of the United States and Israel 66 00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 4: on display and substantial, a substantial diminishing of Iranian capability, 67 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 4: particularly to make war of any kind outside of its 68 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 4: own borders. I am not seeing anything about there's some 69 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 4: other faction or some other group that could theoretically oversee 70 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 4: a transition take over. 71 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 2: And so what I think is going to continue to 72 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 2: be the case. 73 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 4: Clay is, we have our Department of War and Secretary 74 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 4: of Hegseth and Trump degrading Iranian military capability and taking 75 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 4: out seeenior targets. I do not see how this turns 76 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:39,480 Speaker 4: into a different regime at the end of it, and 77 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:43,039 Speaker 4: I felt that way the whole time. I now perhaps 78 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:47,039 Speaker 4: that is what was baked in all along. We're being 79 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 4: told that regime change was never The administration is saying 80 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 4: regime change was not the goal. Okay, you're taking out 81 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 4: all the leadership in this country, and then you're going 82 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 4: to have, to your point, perhaps a more virulent leadership 83 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 4: coming right. 84 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 3: There, and he justified furious, like, leave aside the politics again. 85 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 3: Everybody out there, just think if someone you knew killed 86 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 3: your mom, your dad, your son, and your wife, would 87 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 3: you be likely to work in a positive manner with 88 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 3: that country or that group. Ever, I think the answer 89 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:21,719 Speaker 3: is no. 90 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's obviously the correct assessment on that. So I 91 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 4: think we're gonna have a declare victory and cease aerial 92 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 4: hostilities moment here within the next couple of weeks. 93 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 2: I don't know when exactly. I'm obviously not on the 94 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 2: high side. 95 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:42,040 Speaker 4: As we used to say, I don't have access to 96 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 4: classified or any of that, and if I did, I 97 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 4: wouldn't be talking about it here on radio. But my 98 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:51,599 Speaker 4: sense is that they're just going to realize the problem 99 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 4: with our position on all this. Our military position is 100 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 4: that if you can't force, if you don't have a 101 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 4: ground force, can't force change on the ground, and that 102 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 4: is where we are. There is no Northern Alliance to 103 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,840 Speaker 4: work with the Kurds. There's not enough of them. They 104 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 4: don't want to get I mean, they can't run the 105 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 4: whole country, and that's a non started. 106 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 2: Notice. 107 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 4: People talked about the Curds for about twenty four hours 108 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 4: until they took out a map and learned the basic demographics. 109 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 4: We had that guy who was a military military advisor 110 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 4: in northern Iraq, one of our listeners. He wrote in 111 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 4: and said, yeah, you're right, Yeah, of course I was 112 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 4: up there too. I know the mindset of the Kurds 113 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 4: with this stuff. They don't want any part of trying 114 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 4: to police the rest of Iran. They couldn't do it 115 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 4: on top of all that. So I don't see. I 116 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 4: don't see the way that this ends with a hopeful 117 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 4: new future for Iran. I see this as we have 118 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,359 Speaker 4: defanged the snake, but there are gonna be little baby 119 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,040 Speaker 4: snakes that grow fangs in time after this. That's how 120 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 4: I don't see what the alternative is. 121 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 3: There also is the question, and I think this matters too, 122 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 3: and I believe we have a cut of this of 123 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 3: other people talking about something that is being speculated quite significantly. 124 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 3: It is is the son actually alive? In other words, 125 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 3: is this potentially an opportunity that Iran has taken to 126 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 3: try and prevent the new leader from getting killed by 127 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 3: actually elevating a leader who's already dead. 128 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 2: And there's audio of that. 129 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 3: I want to play that in a sec But Buck 130 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 3: the other part of this is if he is still alive, 131 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 3: he may be protected from being able to be attacked 132 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 3: because if they have him in a hospital, it's hard 133 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 3: to take out someone in a hospital without killing a 134 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 3: lot of other people. And then the same media that 135 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 3: didn't care when Iran killed thirty thousand people is suddenly 136 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 3: going to be leading stories with look at Israel in 137 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 3: the United States targeting people in hospitals, or they got 138 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 3: the guy being treated. As you're starting to see, Iran 139 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 3: has moved whatever assets they have remaining for the state, 140 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 3: into schools, into residential areas, so that when we are 141 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 3: attempting to strike these assets, then they immediately cry, oh, look, 142 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 3: they're just targeting innocence, as if this regime has any 143 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 3: moral authority at all, given the fact that they killed 144 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 3: over thirty thousand protesters just in the beginning of this year. 145 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 4: We've seen this in authoritarian Muslim Mid East states for decades, 146 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,959 Speaker 4: where the regime in charge. You have to remember, the 147 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 4: regime in charge not only disallows there to be a 148 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 4: political opposition, they also recognize if they lose power. I mean, 149 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,440 Speaker 4: you just talked about the thirty thousand protesters killed in 150 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 4: the streets. Yes, you got to think if you are 151 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 4: a member of the besiege, which is the which is 152 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:58,719 Speaker 4: the Islamic Revolutions militia, if you will this sort of 153 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 4: street militia, street thug. They had a very similar thing 154 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 4: in Syria, I might have called the Shabiha. This is 155 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:07,679 Speaker 4: a common thing. You have the military, which you make 156 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 4: sure is ideologically committed and radicalized to the overall cause 157 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 4: of Islamism jihadism, and then below that you have this 158 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 4: paramilitary organization that's meant to know block to block, house 159 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:24,080 Speaker 4: to house who's doing what? And they have the total 160 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 4: blessing of the state to be as vicious and disgusting 161 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 4: and tyrannical as they want, as long as it's serving 162 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 4: the interests of the state play those individuals. You have 163 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 4: to always remember this though. I know we've said there's 164 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 4: an amnesty for the IRGC. Okay, well, that means that 165 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 4: we're saying put down your arms and we won't blow 166 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 4: you up. You brought up what happens if someone kills 167 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 4: your you know, your wife, your your your parents, your kids, 168 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 4: all of the above, you're gonna forget that. You're gonna 169 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 4: if you're now part of the new regime, you're going 170 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 4: to say, hey, when you guys killed those thirty thousand protesters, 171 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 4: you know what, let's let bygones be bygones. 172 00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 5: Know. 173 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 2: In fact, the Kadafi effect is you. 174 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 4: Better stay in power or you may up with a 175 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 4: bayonet in a very uncomfortable place. Yeah, like, bad things happen. 176 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 4: And so it's zero sum for the people inmy Iran 177 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 4: who have been running the country. You got America killing 178 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 4: their leadership, and you've got whatever the opposition on the 179 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 4: street could be. The Iranian street if you will, if 180 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 4: they come into power, they at a minimum you got 181 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 4: to think you might be going to prison in some 182 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 4: hell hole, and maybe even worse than that. So my point, 183 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 4: Clay is they'll fight to the very end. There's no 184 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 4: off ramp for them as far as they see. And 185 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 4: that's not even taking into account the ideological commitment to 186 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:41,959 Speaker 4: stopping the Crusaders and Jews and all the you know, 187 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 4: death to America, Great Satan stuff. That's just the basic card, 188 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 4: cold hard political reality of the situation they face, which 189 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 4: is why I was hoping that we would start to 190 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 4: see a oh wow, there is some kind of door 191 00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 4: number two here, or there is something that they've got planned, 192 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 4: and no, we're just completely annihilating their military capacity. And 193 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 4: then I think we're going to stop, and then we 194 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 4: might have to do this again. It's gonna be like 195 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,679 Speaker 4: mowing the grass, but it's a lot more expensive and 196 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 4: human and monetary costs than mowing the grass. 197 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:19,959 Speaker 3: And also again the question becomes, who is even leading Iran? 198 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 3: And I think this is the question. The new Supreme 199 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:26,840 Speaker 3: Leader who they trotted out with cardboard cutout at the rally, 200 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 3: which doesn't suggest that he's actually that help healthy. Yeah, 201 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 3: that's like the opposite of a proof of life when 202 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 3: they have the cardboard cutout of you at the rally. No, No, 203 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 3: that doesn't look a lot of you also were laughing 204 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,679 Speaker 3: in the comments. You were saying, Hey, maybe we shouldn't 205 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,320 Speaker 3: criticize Iran that much about showing up with a cardboard 206 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 3: cutout since we effectively had a cardboard cutout president for 207 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 3: four years, which is, yeah, very fair point. But here's 208 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 3: the Washington Post Jason Rezihan saying, what I think is 209 00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 3: really being contemplated at a significant way level. 210 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 1: Is this guy even alive? Cut twelve. 211 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 5: I wasn't super surprised by his election. There's been a 212 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 5: lot of talk that he might succeed his father when 213 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 5: his father died. This speculation has been around for more 214 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 5: than a decade. I also wonder if the fact that 215 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 5: we haven't seen him indicates that he might not be alive. 216 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:23,439 Speaker 5: I mean, I don't think that there's a clear indication 217 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:27,080 Speaker 5: that anyone has spoken to him. The President of Iran, 218 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 5: mass Possess Kon said today that neither he nor anyone 219 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:34,360 Speaker 5: else in his government had spoken with the younger comedy 220 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:38,680 Speaker 5: since he was appointed Supreme Leader on Sunday. So there's 221 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 5: still so much confusion around this. 222 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 3: And Buckett could be again an opportunity to make it 223 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 3: seem as if he is the leader when it makes 224 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 3: it harder to target the actual leader. And there may 225 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 3: be a relatively only handful of people that even know 226 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 3: whether he's alive or not. But when you name a 227 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:01,080 Speaker 3: new Supreme leader and he isn't going to be, that 228 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 3: definitely raises questions about what his health actually is. 229 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:07,440 Speaker 2: We'll take your calls on this one. 230 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 4: It's getting the point where I think a lot of 231 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 4: people are running out of patients on the plan here, 232 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 4: whatever it may be. And I mean people who support Trump. 233 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 4: I'm not talking about Trump haters, but maybe look, the 234 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 4: polling has said this pretty consistently, Clay, as long as 235 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 4: this is done this month, people are like, Okay, maybe 236 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 4: it was necessary. They know they're on a time Our 237 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 4: team is on a timeline with this, and it's a 238 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:35,599 Speaker 4: tight timeline. All right, we'll get back to it in 239 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 4: a second. 240 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:40,960 Speaker 3: Here, the presence of first responders, villages, cities, the missiles 241 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 3: that continue to rain down, the drones that continue to 242 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 3: rain down on Israel, the International Fellowship of Christians and 243 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 3: Jews has been working there for many years. Their entire 244 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 3: team is supplying bomb shelters, medical centers, critically needed essential 245 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 3: aspects of life as the attacks rain down on Israel. 246 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:02,200 Speaker 3: Since we have gone into Iran, I saw for myself 247 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 3: they have hospitals in Israel that they have designed. It's 248 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,840 Speaker 3: really kind of amazing to see. They've designed them so 249 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 3: that the parking garages can be the hospital itself. In 250 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 3: other words, they take everybody off the upper floors because 251 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 3: of the danger of attack, and they relocate everyone. The 252 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 3: entire hospital is taking place in the parking garages. Think 253 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 3: about how crazy that is to have to do. That 254 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 3: is one of the things that the IFCJ has helped 255 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 3: to create. They do tremendous work, including the bomb shelters, 256 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 3: just trying to keep regular, everyday innocent people healthy and safe. 257 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 3: You can help to support the work that they are 258 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 3: doing right now by giving forty five dollars to rush 259 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 3: life saving essentials to the vulnerable underfire right now at 260 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 3: eight eight eight four eight eight IFCJ.

That's IFCJ dot org. We're talking 265 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 3: about Ron in the first hour. And now let's turn 266 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 3: our attention for a. 267 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 2: Little bit to. 268 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 4: The attempted terror attack in New York City. Now we've 269 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:33,720 Speaker 4: discussed this with you after it happened. It was outside 270 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 4: of Gracie Mansion, which is the Mayor of New York 271 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 4: City's residence. Also holds events there, but it's the mayor's residence. 272 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 4: I'll never forget when Bloomberg preferred Clay his fifty million 273 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 4: dollars townhouse or whatever it was, so he lived there 274 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 4: and held only events at the That's quite a move 275 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 4: when the official residence of the Mayor of New York 276 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 4: is like, not quite up to your standards, but it's 277 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 4: quite a property. It's right on the East River, and 278 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 4: there was a protest there, people saying that they're worried. 279 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 4: And I don't know exactly what they said. They probably 280 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 4: some of them said some things that aren't so nice 281 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 4: about Islam, and they said that they're worried about the 282 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 4: Islamification of New York, et cetera, et cetera. A bunch 283 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 4: of terrorists wannabes or I guess just terrorists now because 284 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 4: they tried, they are attempted terrorists showed up to throw 285 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 4: bombs at them, to throw a bomb at them, And 286 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 4: there was this fascinating series of events that occurred that 287 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 4: we've seen now many many times over the years, really 288 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 4: over the decades now where somehow, if you are a 289 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 4: Democrat member of the media, you have to take a 290 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 4: shockingly pro Islamic terrorist tone point of view. However, that 291 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 4: is you say that we can never know the real 292 00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 4: motive when the guys you're like Allah who lockbot, we 293 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 4: can never know the real motive, right, we aren't really 294 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 4: sure yet what's going on here. If the guy happens 295 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 4: to be of like Middle Eastern or clearly of Muslim. 296 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 2: Descent, we got to bury that as long as we can. 297 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:16,240 Speaker 4: If we have to leave out things in the transcript, 298 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 4: like the guy, the terrorist saying that he pledge allegiance 299 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:20,960 Speaker 4: to Isis and he's doing this for Allah. 300 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:21,360 Speaker 2: They'll do that too. 301 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:25,440 Speaker 4: This is a clear pattern that has been in place 302 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 4: for a long time, and we saw this play out 303 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:32,159 Speaker 4: in this case Clay with the CNN piece that was 304 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 4: you know it could have been a lovely day. It 305 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 4: was eighty five degrees when two men traveled over from 306 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 4: Pennsylvania and then they threw a bomb at somebody. It's like, well, 307 00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:44,680 Speaker 4: hold on a second, why would you ever frame this 308 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 4: incident in that way as a news report? 309 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 2: Like why make it seem like everything was cool and fine? 310 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:51,960 Speaker 4: And then they just kind of threw a bomb at 311 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 4: some guys and tried to kill them, Like, it's very strange. 312 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:59,399 Speaker 4: CNN's Abby Phillip after this happens, after what I just 313 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 4: told you, and they pulled that tweet down, which is 314 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 4: very rare for CNN to admit we're idiots. We shouldn't 315 00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:08,399 Speaker 4: have done that. But it was so dumb, it was 316 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 4: so preposterous that they had to. Then CNN's Abbey Phillip 317 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 4: goes on and this is now a clay I saw 318 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,400 Speaker 4: you point this out. This is off the teleprompter. Oh yeah, 319 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 4: so this was written by producers who went over this 320 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 4: script beforehand, and then she read it aloud. 321 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:26,440 Speaker 2: I want you to listen closely to how CNN. 322 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:31,959 Speaker 4: Describes this attempted Muslim terrorist attack in New York City 323 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 4: outside the Mayor's residence. 324 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:37,880 Speaker 6: Play two two Republicans say Muslims don't belong here after 325 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:42,360 Speaker 6: an attempted terror attack against New York's Mayor zor On Mamdani, 326 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:45,879 Speaker 6: and the House Speaker Mike Johnson says nothing really to 327 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 6: condemn those comments. 328 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 4: Uh oh, okay, Notice what happened here, Clay, an attempted 329 00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,200 Speaker 4: terror attack against New York City Mayor zor On Mamdani. 330 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 2: It was an attack against him. 331 00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,840 Speaker 4: It was an attack by Muslims against the guys who 332 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,120 Speaker 4: say that Muslims have too many terrorists in their midst 333 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 4: so we should probably rethink how many of them we're 334 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:06,639 Speaker 4: bringing into this country. That's their position, protected by the 335 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:08,879 Speaker 4: First Amendment. By the way, you can dislike it, you 336 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 4: can hate it or not, but it's clearly protected speech 337 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:17,239 Speaker 4: at a protest. But also, Clay, I notice how the 338 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:21,400 Speaker 4: real problem isn't the guys who tried to blow people up, 339 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,440 Speaker 4: name them have ball bearings, you know, shot into their 340 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 4: chests and in their eyes, blind people, maybe, et cetera. 341 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:29,360 Speaker 2: That's not the big problem. 342 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 4: The big problem is the lack of Republican member of 343 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:36,440 Speaker 4: Congress condemnation of the mean. 344 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 2: Words the protesters said. 345 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:42,919 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I can't believe I'm gonna say this but 346 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:46,679 Speaker 3: I'm going to defend Abby Phillips here it even if 347 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:50,479 Speaker 3: we play that again, she's reading off a teleprompter and 348 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 3: it seems like she recognizes that it's poorly drafted. And 349 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 3: again this is being a TV nerd and understanding having 350 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 3: hosted some of these things before. Sometimes you read off 351 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,919 Speaker 3: the prompter and you're like, this is not good, you know. 352 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 3: But as you're reading it, it appears that she is 353 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,360 Speaker 3: going to toss to a break. Play this again. I'll 354 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 3: take you into the weeds here. But what I think 355 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 3: a significant buck is whatever the culture is at CNN. 356 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 3: This much like that article that made it out of 357 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 3: through the editorial process and everything else. The errors you make, 358 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 3: and I will say this as a guy who has 359 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 3: run a media company, the errors you make reflect the 360 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 3: culture you create. And everybody's going to screw up. Everybody's 361 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 3: going to be imperfect. You and I screw up. Sometimes 362 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 3: we don't have teleprompters, so we're not reading anything at 363 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 3: any point in time. I always hold it up. You 364 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,879 Speaker 3: can watch. You can look at this on the on 365 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 3: the YouTube channel. I have a yellow legal pad like 366 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 3: I have for most of my career that I jot 367 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 3: down notes on that I read and run the entire 368 00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 3: show from and you have a notepad in front of you, 369 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,639 Speaker 3: and you got your computer, but there is no teleprompter. 370 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 3: Play that for us one more time. As she is 371 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,880 Speaker 3: reading it, you can start to see she is thinking, Hey, 372 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 3: this doesn't feel right. But she has a commercial break 373 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 3: that she's trying to hit and this is the tease. 374 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:17,880 Speaker 3: But again, the errors that you make reflect the culture 375 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 3: that you create. The culture that CNN has created is 376 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 3: there is no way that left wingers could ever be 377 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 3: responsible for anything negative, and that I think undergirds this error. 378 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 3: Play it one more time. 379 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 6: Two Republicans say Muslims don't belong here after an attempted 380 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 6: terror attack against New York's mayors are on Mamdani and 381 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 6: the House Speaker, Mike Johnson says nothing really to condemn 382 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 6: those comments. 383 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 3: Okay, and I saw an interesting comment and I can't 384 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:51,160 Speaker 3: remember who credited it. But a lot of people believe 385 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:54,680 Speaker 3: that Mom Donnie was the victim of a terror attack. 386 00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 3: That is intentional. Lots of people on the left who 387 00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 3: were not as engaged on story as you are, believe 388 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 3: that Mamdani was the victim of a terror attack. You 389 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 3: can hear Abby Phillips. She recognizes I think that that 390 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 3: is not an accurate ease that she is reading. But 391 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,639 Speaker 3: somehow that made it through CNN editorial, somehow that I 392 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:17,480 Speaker 3: believe ended up on her teleprompter. And what this is 393 00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:23,199 Speaker 3: reflective of is an attempt to obfuscate, to hide, to 394 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 3: keep people unaware of what actually happened here, which is 395 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:32,680 Speaker 3: to Muslim motivated terrorists decided to try to throw IEDs 396 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,639 Speaker 3: and kill people who were protesting the number of Muslims 397 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:39,639 Speaker 3: that have been allowed into our country, and brave NYPD 398 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 3: police officers ran towards the bombs and were able to 399 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:48,440 Speaker 3: tackle the guys who were responsible for this, And this 400 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 3: is a this is James Gogliano, former director of the 401 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:58,680 Speaker 3: FBI NYC Division, says, the rank and file are furious 402 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 3: because Mamdanni in no way honored the NYPD officers that 403 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,679 Speaker 3: actually ran towards these bombs and caught the bad guys, 404 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:11,680 Speaker 3: which again goes to the intentional cultural hiding of this 405 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:13,479 Speaker 3: story in the way that it's been covered. 406 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 1: Cut twenty four the. 407 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:18,160 Speaker 7: Other night, instead of hosting the two star police chief 408 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,880 Speaker 7: who leaped over the barricades and ran this guy down 409 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:25,640 Speaker 7: who had thrown the bomb, the mayor decides that Gracie 410 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:29,680 Speaker 7: Mansion to host mackmood Khalil. I mean, he's senting such 411 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 7: an awful, awful message here to the rank and file. 412 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 7: And remember the mayor when he was a private citizen 413 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 7: who had commented on Twitter then that he saw cop 414 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 7: crying in his car and nature was healing. This is 415 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:46,360 Speaker 7: something that again, the men and women of the NYPD 416 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 7: will do the right thing. They're going to enforce the laws, 417 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,960 Speaker 7: they're gonna show up for work, but they understand that 418 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:55,199 Speaker 7: this man on the screen right now does not have 419 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:56,720 Speaker 7: their back. 420 00:23:57,760 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 3: I think that's the key Bock and you're in New 421 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 3: York City that he born and bred kid. The fact 422 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 3: that this NYPD cop who jumped, if you haven't seen 423 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:10,639 Speaker 3: the iconic photo of this cop jumping a barricade to 424 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 3: chase down the guys who had thrown bombs, bombs that 425 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:16,159 Speaker 3: at any moment could have gone off. He ran towards danger, 426 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 3: He arrested and tackled the culprits here Mamdannie. To my knowledge, 427 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:24,679 Speaker 3: Buck hasn't said a word in favor of this officer's 428 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:28,399 Speaker 3: bravery and what he actually did. Instead, he brought the 429 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:32,600 Speaker 3: Columbia protester in and gave him a meal and took 430 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 3: pictures of it. 431 00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 4: Well, you have to remember that Mam Donnie's base very 432 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:43,159 Speaker 4: much is comprised of and includes in considerable number the 433 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 4: kind of people who agree with everything that those terrorists 434 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 4: feel and say. But they have to technically draw the 435 00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 4: line at actual violence because that's against the law in 436 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,280 Speaker 4: a way that people notice and get upset about. So 437 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 4: his base is very supportive of the people who show 438 00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:06,919 Speaker 4: up and want to silence the anti Uh you know what, 439 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:08,919 Speaker 4: we didn't really have a good term for them. They 440 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:10,960 Speaker 4: call them white nationalists. To this I still haven't seen 441 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 4: anything white nationalists. I've only seen anti immigration and anti 442 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 4: Now people can argue if they think that's white nationalists, 443 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:22,040 Speaker 4: but there are plenty of people who are concerned about 444 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:25,119 Speaker 4: the massive immigration into this country, particularly legal immigration who 445 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:30,880 Speaker 4: aren't white, including legal immigrants, by the way, huge numbers 446 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:34,480 Speaker 4: of minorities that have legally immigrated to the country, Like 447 00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 4: we're good, we have enough. Yeah, we've had enough here 448 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:39,960 Speaker 4: for a little while. So that's not actually a white 449 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 4: nationalist belief per se. They can try to make make 450 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 4: that case, but I think that that's made in bad faith. 451 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 4: My point here being that, yeah, Mam Donnie, like left 452 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 4: wing radical lunatics are Mam Donnie's buddies, so he doesn't 453 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:55,640 Speaker 4: want to upset them. But he does have to say, 454 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 4: all right, like, don't try to blow up the white 455 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 4: nationalists quote unquote just you know, spit in their faces 456 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:04,880 Speaker 4: and do what ANTIFA usually does. But don't do that, 457 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:08,119 Speaker 4: because then I have to let the NYPD tackle some 458 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,199 Speaker 4: of them and do the things. I'm gonna tell you 459 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 4: this right now. By the way, it's gonna take some time. 460 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:16,919 Speaker 4: The sentence that these guys get is going to be 461 00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 4: enragingly light guaranteed. In really now, they're gonna they're gonna 462 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 4: be punished because they they know there are limits here 463 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:30,080 Speaker 4: to how crazy the system can be in New York 464 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,440 Speaker 4: when before people really start to freak out and leave. 465 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:35,440 Speaker 4: But Clay, I mean, you're gonna see remember the guys 466 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 4: who during BLM. Wasn't there a guy It was a lawyer. Actually, 467 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 4: there you go, a lawyer who threw a Molotov cocktail 468 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:43,520 Speaker 4: into a cop car. 469 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 2: They got slap on the wrist. Yeah, I remember that 470 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 2: slap on the wrist. 471 00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:52,399 Speaker 3: Yeah, I remember that story because I think it was 472 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 3: a lawyer at a prominent law firm, and I remember thinking, 473 00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 3: how do you find yourself in a situation where you're 474 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:01,160 Speaker 3: lighting a Molotov cocktail as a lawyer on fire and 475 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 3: throwing it into a cop car. That's how deranged everybody 476 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:10,600 Speaker 3: became on the left in particular in twenty twenty, probably. 477 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 4: Got a tenured professor precision position waiting for him at 478 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:18,680 Speaker 4: some local you know, university, local college in New York. 479 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 4: I wouldn't be surprised at all. Look, we had a 480 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:24,400 Speaker 4: blackout the other night. That's why I didn't ask me anything. 481 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 4: Most of you were nice in the AMA, some of 482 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,680 Speaker 4: you not so nice.

But it was a 486 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 4: reminder that stuff can happen. And it was also a 487 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 4: reminder that if I needed to talk to family, even 488 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,960 Speaker 4: if you had all the power out here and there 489 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 4: were cell phone disruptions which can happen. I had my 490 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 4: rapid radios ready to go.

That primary, I 516 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 3: believe just happened yesterday. Ashley Brassfield with us. Now let's 517 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 3: start right there. Ashley, thanks for coming on with us. 518 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 3: The Marjorie Taylor Green race is to replace her. They 519 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 3: now have Democrat and Republican nominees. How does that look 520 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 3: and what can you tell us overall big picture about 521 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 3: the state of Georgia. 522 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 8: Yeah, well, that Marjorie Taylor Green brace that you saw yesterday, 523 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 8: the primary happen with the GOP a ton of people 524 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 8: in that race, and we saw Trump endorse candidate Clay 525 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 8: Fuller come out on top there. Colton Moore was another 526 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 8: name that a lot of people were speculating, a state 527 00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 8: senator in Georgia that's pretty well known that could have come. 528 00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:49,480 Speaker 9: On that race. 529 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 8: It ended up being Clay Fuller, though, and we'll see 530 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:54,560 Speaker 8: him go against the Democrat with the last name Harris 531 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 8: and that runoff to see who fills that seat. Of course, 532 00:29:56,960 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 8: Marjorie Taylor Green's district is actually where I'm from in Georgia, 533 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 8: so I know it well. And it's a very rural 534 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 8: area in the north west part of the state, and 535 00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 8: so it's I think a GOP stronghold there even without 536 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:11,520 Speaker 8: Taylor Green holding that seat. But like Kentucky, like you 537 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 8: were talking about, the state of Georgia is seeing a 538 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 8: big Senate race take place, a three way tie right 539 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:20,040 Speaker 8: now with Buddy Carter, Mike Collins, and Derek Dooley, And 540 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,479 Speaker 8: it's very similar into that Kentucky race and what we 541 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 8: are just now seeing in the Texas GOP Senate primary 542 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 8: where there's going to be a runoff. Texas and Georgia 543 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:31,200 Speaker 8: very similar, where they both have that fifty percent mark 544 00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:33,800 Speaker 8: that the candidates have to get to in order for 545 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 8: there to be no runoff. So that's going to be 546 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 8: coming up on May nineteenth, and it's going to be 547 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:38,040 Speaker 8: a big race. 548 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 2: Hey, Ashley, it's Bock. Thanks for being here with us. 549 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:42,920 Speaker 4: So I know you're covering this and as you mentioned, 550 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 4: it hits particularly close to home as your district. You 551 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 4: are a Georgian and your district is one of the 552 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 4: ones where they'll be quite an interesting matchup playing out. 553 00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 2: But what can you tell. 554 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:59,440 Speaker 4: Us about the situation of the governor's race at this 555 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,680 Speaker 4: point obvious Camp is term limited, right, he can't run again. 556 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 4: So you've got a pretty big field here of Republicans 557 00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 4: and Democrats. Can you break down for us what that's 558 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:11,720 Speaker 4: looking like at this stage? 559 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 8: Yeah, Well, that governor's race is going to be very intense, 560 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 8: and I think there is that dynamic and I've kind 561 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 8: of touched on this in my Senate piece of that 562 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 8: dynamic between Trump and Kemp and the Trump endorsed candidate 563 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 8: here and who the Kemp endorsed candidates are going to 564 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 8: be here. 565 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 9: Well, at the governor's. 566 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:26,480 Speaker 8: Race, I think you're going to see the Lieutenant Governor 567 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 8: Burt Jones get both endorsements from Trump and Camp on 568 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 8: that one. Where it differs in the Senate is that 569 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 8: Camp has already endorsed former football coach at Tennessee Derek 570 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:38,160 Speaker 8: Dooley here and this race, and Trump has not endorsed 571 00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 8: the Senate candidate. So that's kind of the difference is 572 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 8: in the race is here. But you see Brad Raffensberger, 573 00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:44,680 Speaker 8: who's also running for governor. That's a familiar name you 574 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:49,200 Speaker 8: might remember back from twenty twenty two and the attorney 575 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:51,720 Speaker 8: general that you made the call from the President during 576 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,360 Speaker 8: the election fraud scandal. So there's a long history of 577 00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 8: few it's happening in the state of Georgia. As many know, 578 00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 8: it's a purple state, and so I think it's going 579 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 8: to be a battleground. It's kind of been this powder 580 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:04,280 Speaker 8: keg that's been waiting kind to explode. It's been kind 581 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:07,640 Speaker 8: of this Southern charm aspect to it, where nothing's quite 582 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,400 Speaker 8: happened yet. But these primaries coming up. I had my 583 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:13,200 Speaker 8: eye on it personally. Like we just saw in Texas, 584 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:14,360 Speaker 8: it kind of exploded all of a. 585 00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 4: Sudden, and we don't know who the Trump guy is. 586 00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:19,240 Speaker 4: Just to be clear, right, they're still angling for a 587 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 4: Trump endorsement in that governor's race on the Republican side. 588 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:25,280 Speaker 8: Yes, I believe so, if if not, bur Jones hasn't 589 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 8: gotten it yet, but I think there are bird Jones 590 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:28,520 Speaker 8: is kind of. 591 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:29,719 Speaker 9: The guy that everybody's looking at. 592 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:32,240 Speaker 8: He's of course the former football Georgia football player, and 593 00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 8: I will say that football characteristic and Georgia seems to play. 594 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 8: I mean, we saw herschel Walker back in twenty twenty two. 595 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 8: Bur Jones I was on the campaign trail back in 596 00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 8: twenty twenty four. He was at the Georgia Tech rally 597 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:44,160 Speaker 8: with President Trump on stage. So these are characters that 598 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 8: are very familiar. You know, I would say that you know, 599 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 8: when the guy then the president was in Rome just 600 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 8: about two and a half weeks ago, you saw on 601 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:54,640 Speaker 8: the stage very louder Milk, Mike Collins and Brian Jack 602 00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:57,000 Speaker 8: And those are kind of the key players here in 603 00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 8: these races. And if you really want to get into 604 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:01,720 Speaker 8: the lore and the deep inside knowledge of Georgia, I mean, 605 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 8: you can go back to the dynamic with Governor Kemp 606 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 8: and Trump and people like Steve Whitcoff, Lindsey Graham. Same 607 00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 8: characters were kind of seeing in this Iram war stuff, 608 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 8: playing those middlemen and making deals in the state. 609 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:13,720 Speaker 9: So I think you're going to be seeing more of 610 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 9: that possibly as well. 611 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:20,520 Speaker 3: Actually, this primary is May nineteen. I think you can 612 00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 3: correct me on the exact date. 613 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 9: That's correct. 614 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 3: We just talked yesterday with Michael Wattley, who is running 615 00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 3: in North Carolina, and he said, and I can't believe 616 00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:34,200 Speaker 3: this number. Actually he said it might cost six hundred 617 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:38,760 Speaker 3: million dollars for that Senate race in North Carolina. I 618 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:41,640 Speaker 3: would have to think the numbers would be somewhat similar 619 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,160 Speaker 3: in Georgia. Because this is why Georgia is so important 620 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 3: for people out there who aren't paying attention to the map. 621 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:50,320 Speaker 3: It is by far the best chance for Republicans to 622 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 3: take back a Democrat seat. And there is no math 623 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 3: if Republicans could win the Senate seat in Georgia. There's 624 00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:01,640 Speaker 3: basically no math under which the loss of the Senate 625 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 3: could occur. Us Off's a favorite right now, but that's 626 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 3: why so much attention. I know that governor's race is big, 627 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 3: but in terms of national politics, that Senate seat is huge, right. 628 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 9: And it's going to be a challenge for Republicans. 629 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 8: We've seen that back since twenty twenty when Leffler and Purdue, 630 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 8: you know, we're running to replace and you know, take 631 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:23,359 Speaker 8: over those seats Democrats Rafael Warnock and John Ossoff took them. 632 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:25,759 Speaker 8: We saw Rafael Warnock be challenged in twenty twenty two 633 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:28,239 Speaker 8: and that was unsuccessful. So it's going to be a 634 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:31,240 Speaker 8: real test for the GOP without Trump's name on the ballot, 635 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:33,880 Speaker 8: like in twenty twenty four, to see if they'll be 636 00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:34,640 Speaker 8: successful here. 637 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:35,399 Speaker 2: And you know, to. 638 00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:38,440 Speaker 8: Differentiate the candidates, you have the Kemp endorsed Derek Duley, 639 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 8: and he has that governor's endorsement behind him from the start. 640 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 9: Nothing from Trump yet. 641 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:46,839 Speaker 8: Mike Collins, he's done a great job of getting behind 642 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 8: the grassroots support in Georgia, going to I believe one 643 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:52,640 Speaker 8: hundred and fifty nine counties and counting. He was also 644 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:55,279 Speaker 8: at that from Georgia event not too long ago with 645 00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:58,279 Speaker 8: Trump on stage. And so while we also have Rett 646 00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:01,800 Speaker 8: Brody Carter, they Collins and Quarter have been Trump allies 647 00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 8: for a very long time. Derek Duley was not voting 648 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,480 Speaker 8: in those earlier elections for Trump, but still has that 649 00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:08,480 Speaker 8: support from Kem. I think it's going to be a 650 00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:10,800 Speaker 8: very interesting dynamic of who can go up against somebody 651 00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 8: where John oss Off is perceived by a lot of 652 00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:15,719 Speaker 8: people as still a moderate even though he might not 653 00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 8: be to a lot, but also in the state where 654 00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 8: it's purple, but he also has really great constituent affairs, 655 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,719 Speaker 8: and that's what I'm hearing from myann State people. 656 00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:23,280 Speaker 9: Who live there. 657 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:25,120 Speaker 8: So I think it's going to be a very big 658 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:27,279 Speaker 8: challenge for the GOP in the state, much like North 659 00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:29,480 Speaker 8: Carolina is, and if you look at Georgia, North Carolina, 660 00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:32,160 Speaker 8: the situations their flips with account whether it be with 661 00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 8: the governors and the senators there. 662 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:34,760 Speaker 9: So it's very interesting. 663 00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:38,480 Speaker 4: Ashley Brassfield with us from the Daily Caller and she's 664 00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 4: in Georgia and she's covering that Georgia election as the 665 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:45,719 Speaker 4: primary is coming up here very closely. Ashley, what if 666 00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:47,440 Speaker 4: you just refresh my memory? You know, we have to 667 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:49,960 Speaker 4: pay attention to a lot of political stories here. I 668 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:56,760 Speaker 4: recall Marjorie Taylor Green was among the most pro Trump 669 00:35:56,840 --> 00:36:00,839 Speaker 4: trumpy members of Congress. And then there's in some like 670 00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:03,840 Speaker 4: falling out like a pretty big one. 671 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 2: What happened? What was the issue or where where did 672 00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 2: this all go? 673 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,759 Speaker 4: It seems like one of the crazier turnabouts I've seen 674 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:13,280 Speaker 4: on the Republican side in a while. 675 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:15,920 Speaker 8: Right, It felt like, I think for a lot of 676 00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:18,120 Speaker 8: people that weren't falling closely for a long time, as 677 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,520 Speaker 8: this big explosion that all of a sudden happened, and 678 00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:22,080 Speaker 8: you know, I think a lot of it left everybody 679 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:24,359 Speaker 8: in dismay. But this, I mean, can go back all 680 00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 8: the way to you know, when Trump got into office 681 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:29,600 Speaker 8: in twenty twenty four, who was he picking as secretaries? 682 00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:32,360 Speaker 8: And Marjorie Taylor Green a won rally in South Carolina 683 00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:35,760 Speaker 8: Voice that she would not mind taking the DHS position. 684 00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:39,160 Speaker 8: You follow along, she became, you know, a big player 685 00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:42,319 Speaker 8: in that Doge effort on the Oversight Committee, and I 686 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:44,600 Speaker 8: think she started to see some things happening within the 687 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:46,919 Speaker 8: Trump administration in those first six months that she wasn't 688 00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:49,840 Speaker 8: exactly pleased with some policy changes, whether it be immigration, 689 00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:52,680 Speaker 8: the tariffs that she was heading for a while, but 690 00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:54,960 Speaker 8: she kind of switched her tune on. And then I 691 00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:57,359 Speaker 8: do think she wanted to run in that Georgia Senate race. 692 00:36:57,600 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 8: She's made comments about many of the candidates in that 693 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,800 Speaker 8: race that she not thrilled about them. So I believe 694 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:04,839 Speaker 8: that there was some internal polling shown by the White 695 00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:08,279 Speaker 8: House to Taylor Green that showed her being, you know, 696 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:10,960 Speaker 8: be in the I guess the general election with asofs 697 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:12,640 Speaker 8: So I don't think she was pleased with that, and 698 00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:14,719 Speaker 8: I think that's where things started to take a turn there. 699 00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:16,839 Speaker 8: She kind of saw where the puck was going, and 700 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:20,319 Speaker 8: I think the relationship just continued to sour, especially you know, 701 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:25,160 Speaker 8: she's become this very anti involvement and more type of individual. 702 00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:27,839 Speaker 8: And then you saw the big explosion take place back 703 00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:30,520 Speaker 8: in you know, December November time period, and she is 704 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:32,480 Speaker 8: no longer in Congress, so now we're seeing. 705 00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:33,080 Speaker 9: This special election. 706 00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:35,759 Speaker 8: But I don't think people understand the full scope of 707 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:37,720 Speaker 8: that story, and I think it was a very interesting 708 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:39,759 Speaker 8: one to see happen within the first year of the 709 00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:42,040 Speaker 8: Trump administration from somebody like Taylor Green who's been a 710 00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,000 Speaker 8: cheerleader for the president for the last four and a 711 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 8: half years. 712 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:48,040 Speaker 4: And has there been any effort to reach out, you know, 713 00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:52,200 Speaker 4: Brian Camp. A lot of the Trump bass nationwide. I 714 00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:54,960 Speaker 4: think they've expressed it here on the show and it 715 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:58,480 Speaker 4: emails they're frustrated with Camp on different things. But Camp, 716 00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:01,600 Speaker 4: as I understand, it, has been very, very popular within 717 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:04,280 Speaker 4: the state of Georgia. And while he can't run again, 718 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 4: is there an effort underway or is there any attempt 719 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:13,359 Speaker 4: at a reproach maall between Trump, MAGA and Brian Kemp, 720 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:15,520 Speaker 4: just for the purposes of making sure that we don't 721 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:20,760 Speaker 4: lose a third winnable and really should win Senate seed 722 00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 4: in the state of Georgia, because it's starting to feel 723 00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:25,680 Speaker 4: like we got a problem in your home state. 724 00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:29,319 Speaker 8: Yeah, well, you thought there would be some kumbaya after 725 00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:31,919 Speaker 8: twenty twenty four, and it seemed like Kemp got on board. 726 00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:33,920 Speaker 8: He went on an appearance on Fox News saying he 727 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:36,399 Speaker 8: supported the president. But I think it's kind of been 728 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 8: this consistent cold war with the governor and the president 729 00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:41,600 Speaker 8: since then. And you saw this when he decided not 730 00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:43,680 Speaker 8: to take a run at the Senate and that GOP 731 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:46,279 Speaker 8: seat and instead he endorsed their Dulie, which I don't 732 00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:48,360 Speaker 8: think was something that the White House looked fondly. 733 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:50,279 Speaker 9: Upon when he did it. So I'm not sure if 734 00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:52,359 Speaker 9: it's a total Kumbaya moment quite yet. 735 00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:54,360 Speaker 8: We're going into twenty twenty six, which might need to 736 00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 8: happen here if the GOP wants to secure the seat 737 00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:00,440 Speaker 8: in general, so it's a matter of, you know, to 738 00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 8: watch how it goes. I think that people probably need 739 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:04,680 Speaker 8: to keep an eye on Governor Kemp for higher aspirations 740 00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:06,520 Speaker 8: of offices in twenty twenty eight. 741 00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 9: We'll see there. 742 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:10,560 Speaker 8: But I think that's a strategic move by Kemp on purpose, 743 00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:14,200 Speaker 8: And it seems like in the state there's a big 744 00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:18,920 Speaker 8: players like the Brian Kemp's, you know, Mike Collins, Buddy Carter's, 745 00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 8: Derek Dooley's, and then even in the governor's race where 746 00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:23,640 Speaker 8: you're seeing a lot of changing dynamics, and one name 747 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:26,160 Speaker 8: that's not there is, of course Stacy Abrams anymore. So 748 00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 8: it's really this inner party war that's happening within the 749 00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:29,839 Speaker 8: party right now. 750 00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:31,680 Speaker 1: I'd say, yeah, I know a little bit about this. 751 00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 2: Actually. 752 00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:35,480 Speaker 3: Brian Kemp, obviously is a wildly popular governor in Georgia, 753 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:38,080 Speaker 3: has done a really good job. He believes Derek Dooley's 754 00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 3: the best pick, and he had tried to persuade the 755 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:45,239 Speaker 3: Trump White House to also endorse Dooley. Instead, they have 756 00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:47,319 Speaker 3: so far stayed out of this primary, which is about 757 00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:52,520 Speaker 3: two months away, and hopefully we can wed the turnout 758 00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:55,759 Speaker 3: the vote of Brian Kemp with the passion of Trump supporters, 759 00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:59,759 Speaker 3: because that might be it's one hundred percent necessary, I 760 00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:02,080 Speaker 3: think to actually manage to win the Senate race. One 761 00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:04,400 Speaker 3: question for you, Ashley on the way out, because I 762 00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 3: know you're a former athlete. If I remember correctly as 763 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:11,440 Speaker 3: we're talking to you, the Iranian women's soccer team, I 764 00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:13,880 Speaker 3: think the story deserves way more attention than it's getting. 765 00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:15,880 Speaker 2: A lot of the girls. 766 00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:18,640 Speaker 3: Women on that team refuse to seeing the Iranian national 767 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:23,720 Speaker 3: anthem at an event competition in Australia, six or seven 768 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:27,000 Speaker 3: different reports of those members of that team did not 769 00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:29,560 Speaker 3: want to go back to Iran afterwards because they were 770 00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:33,400 Speaker 3: terrified of what might happen to them. So Australia granted 771 00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:38,680 Speaker 3: asylum to them. They have landed in Malaysia and reports 772 00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:42,239 Speaker 3: are that most of the women on the team do 773 00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:44,960 Speaker 3: not want to continue on to Iran because they are 774 00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:47,480 Speaker 3: terrified of what is going to happen to them when 775 00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:48,000 Speaker 3: they land. 776 00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:49,080 Speaker 1: We have a lot of. 777 00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:52,800 Speaker 3: Examples of people like Megan Rapino, as you well know Ashley, 778 00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:56,680 Speaker 3: speaking out aggressively against the United States. Why do you 779 00:40:56,719 --> 00:41:00,440 Speaker 3: think so many women's athletes that are quick to grade 780 00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:04,520 Speaker 3: the United States from soccer in particular are not speaking 781 00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:09,040 Speaker 3: out to protect these women that actually put their lives 782 00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:12,640 Speaker 3: legitimately on the line to speak for freedom in their 783 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:15,239 Speaker 3: home country. Feels to me like this story should be 784 00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:16,160 Speaker 3: way bigger than it is. 785 00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:19,160 Speaker 8: Right Well, it seems to only matter to people like 786 00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:21,640 Speaker 8: Megan Rapino when she's not getting paid enough. 787 00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:23,600 Speaker 9: In her book is my the way I look at this? 788 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:26,120 Speaker 8: And of course she's getting on you know, this cover 789 00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:28,399 Speaker 8: of sports illustrated in magazines like that, but she doesn't 790 00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 8: care about the global issues like the what those women 791 00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:33,640 Speaker 8: on the Iranian soccer team are now facing So I 792 00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:36,279 Speaker 8: think that's just you know, first world problems from Megan 793 00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:38,839 Speaker 8: Rapino really not paying attention to this. But it is 794 00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:41,200 Speaker 8: sad to see women, you know, especially women that are 795 00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:44,279 Speaker 8: well known like Serena Williams, they haven't spoken out on 796 00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:46,799 Speaker 8: even you know, men and women's sports. In fact, they've 797 00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:49,160 Speaker 8: been more supportive of it if anything. So I think 798 00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:52,280 Speaker 8: that's the progressive agenda here being seen playing out within sports. 799 00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:56,640 Speaker 8: And I think that even in places like Iran, where 800 00:41:56,760 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 8: yeah you've seen Comedie being you know, taken out by 801 00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:01,840 Speaker 8: the United it stays in Israel. Now we have his 802 00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:05,400 Speaker 8: son of taking his spot in leadership at this point, 803 00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:07,239 Speaker 8: I think that's going to be a problem for these 804 00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:09,200 Speaker 8: women going back to the country and luckily, you know, 805 00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:11,920 Speaker 8: Australia has granted them a place to stay, but I 806 00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:13,480 Speaker 8: would be also fearful if I were them. 807 00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:14,560 Speaker 9: I mean, Iran is not. 808 00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:16,799 Speaker 8: His place that's safe for women, and it's I think 809 00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:18,759 Speaker 8: it's interesting that they even have a women's soccer team, 810 00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:21,279 Speaker 8: that they've even been granted that in a place like Iran. 811 00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:21,960 Speaker 2: No doubt. 812 00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:23,600 Speaker 3: I mean, they didn't allow him to even go watch 813 00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:29,360 Speaker 3: soccer games for multiple generations since the Mullus came into power. 814 00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:32,279 Speaker 2: Hey, we appreciate you, Ashley. Keep up the good work. 815 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:35,319 Speaker 3: That battlefield in Georgia is going to be significant when 816 00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:38,000 Speaker 3: it comes to control of the Senate, and we appreciate 817 00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:38,440 Speaker 3: the update. 818 00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:40,040 Speaker 9: Yeah, thank you guys. 819 00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:43,000 Speaker 2: It's Ashley Brassfield.

He battled nine to eleven related cancer 830 00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:16,120 Speaker 3: for more than three years before passing away.

We'll get into a bunch of 844 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:06,719 Speaker 3: things with him, but let's go ahead and start with 845 00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:11,240 Speaker 3: this Senator, because everybody, every day we get asked about 846 00:44:11,239 --> 00:44:14,520 Speaker 3: to Save America ACT. I know you've been in meetings 847 00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:17,560 Speaker 3: all day on Capitol Hill. People are fired up about 848 00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:20,560 Speaker 3: the fact that this is not necessarily going to be 849 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:23,799 Speaker 3: coming up on the floor. What's the latest and what 850 00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:27,000 Speaker 3: would you tell our audience to do if they're fired 851 00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:29,439 Speaker 3: up about this as most of them are. 852 00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:33,880 Speaker 10: Yeah, call your congressman, call your senator, let everybody know 853 00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:37,719 Speaker 10: what you feel about the Save America Act because it 854 00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:42,160 Speaker 10: is exactly what it means. We have to save America 855 00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:47,480 Speaker 10: bout making sure our voting is true and effective. You know, 856 00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:50,920 Speaker 10: when I'm in Alabama, play people asking me, coach, is 857 00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:53,920 Speaker 10: my vote on count or is it just a false 858 00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:56,120 Speaker 10: sense of security? And we want to make sure that 859 00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:58,920 Speaker 10: people across the country know that their vote counts. Now, 860 00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:02,920 Speaker 10: we have fifteen states in the United States of America 861 00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:06,520 Speaker 10: that are totally crooked. All the Blue states, they want 862 00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:09,960 Speaker 10: to make sure that they get elected, they elect their officials. 863 00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:12,839 Speaker 10: But we have to give us some kind of opportunity 864 00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:17,160 Speaker 10: to make these things as fair as possible, because we 865 00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:19,960 Speaker 10: have no chance. And if we continue to lose to 866 00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:23,400 Speaker 10: blue states, eventually we're going to lose the White House 867 00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:26,439 Speaker 10: and they are going to open the border up again 868 00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:29,680 Speaker 10: no law in order get money away right and left, 869 00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:32,719 Speaker 10: still from the country, still from the taxpayers, and the 870 00:45:32,760 --> 00:45:35,279 Speaker 10: country that you and I know we'll be over with. 871 00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:39,560 Speaker 4: Let me ask you, Senator Trubarvilt's back, thanks for being here. 872 00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:42,279 Speaker 4: Why not get rid of the filibuster if this is 873 00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:45,719 Speaker 4: really about saving America, Because it feels like this is 874 00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:48,480 Speaker 4: the game that we end up having to play. United 875 00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:52,120 Speaker 4: States senators want to do something on the Republican side. 876 00:45:52,400 --> 00:45:54,960 Speaker 2: But we need six Steve votes, we need sixty. 877 00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:57,960 Speaker 4: That's not a constitutional mandate, that's just a self imposed 878 00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:01,719 Speaker 4: restriction from the Senate. If it is saving America, then 879 00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:04,120 Speaker 4: why not at least have the discussion about whether this 880 00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:06,920 Speaker 4: is the time to do that, because otherwise aren't we 881 00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:10,040 Speaker 4: just hoping for a filibuster, a standing filibuster at best. 882 00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:13,360 Speaker 10: Well, first of all, you're exactly right, and when the 883 00:46:13,360 --> 00:46:15,719 Speaker 10: Democrats take over, they're going to do away with the 884 00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:21,200 Speaker 10: philibuster immediately. So we have talked about twenty five or 885 00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:23,399 Speaker 10: thirty of us. I've talked to our blue in our face, 886 00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:27,280 Speaker 10: to our colleagues who keep saying, oh, it's about tradition 887 00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 10: of the Senate, and I tell them, listen, I don't 888 00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:32,400 Speaker 10: work for the Senate. I work for the people of 889 00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:35,160 Speaker 10: this country and the people of Alabama. And if it's 890 00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:38,600 Speaker 10: time to understand this country has changed. We are not 891 00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:41,480 Speaker 10: the same republic that we used to be. We have 892 00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:45,920 Speaker 10: the enemy is inside the gates. They are changing our culture, 893 00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:50,440 Speaker 10: our moral values, changing our religions, change just overtaking everything 894 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:53,920 Speaker 10: that we're doing. And so now is the time. Don't panic. 895 00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:57,160 Speaker 10: Let's just bust a filibuster and vote everything in we 896 00:46:57,239 --> 00:47:00,400 Speaker 10: possibly can under the best president we've ever had, and 897 00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:02,600 Speaker 10: get this country back where it's going again, and do 898 00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:05,360 Speaker 10: not let them cheat on us in elections again. 899 00:47:06,880 --> 00:47:07,680 Speaker 2: Senator Somepville. 900 00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:11,719 Speaker 3: The other big question we're getting is about how to 901 00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:15,160 Speaker 3: wind down the war in Iran. And I'm sure you're 902 00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:18,360 Speaker 3: hearing from some of your constituents. Price of oil and 903 00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:22,600 Speaker 3: gas a major concern. I know Alabama, like Tennessee, fortunately 904 00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:25,719 Speaker 3: still has very low gas prices compared to much of 905 00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:28,279 Speaker 3: the country. But you may have already talked about this 906 00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:31,480 Speaker 3: with President Trump. If the President asked for your advice 907 00:47:31,560 --> 00:47:34,600 Speaker 3: on how to handle the wind down in Iran, what 908 00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:35,399 Speaker 3: would you tell him? 909 00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:37,960 Speaker 10: Well, first of all, he asked me about three orple 910 00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:41,279 Speaker 10: weeks ago, what do you think, Coach about Iran? I said, well, 911 00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:44,200 Speaker 10: we've got them as wikis ever ever been. They're killing 912 00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:47,800 Speaker 10: their own people. They have a radical group of people 913 00:47:47,880 --> 00:47:51,439 Speaker 10: running that government. If we're ever going to make sure 914 00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:54,680 Speaker 10: that the Middle East is safe, to take out all 915 00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:58,719 Speaker 10: these these terrorist groups all across the Middle East and 916 00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:01,200 Speaker 10: in our country, now down the time to do it. 917 00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:05,360 Speaker 10: And thank goodness, I truly believe that it was the 918 00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:09,600 Speaker 10: right thing to do it. We'll never have this opportunity again. Now, 919 00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:12,800 Speaker 10: this doesn't need to be one of those forever wars, 920 00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:15,160 Speaker 10: and it won't be. He's gonna do what he needs 921 00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:18,759 Speaker 10: to do and it's gonna be over with. And you 922 00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:20,920 Speaker 10: know he said four weeks, five weeks. I don't want 923 00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:22,840 Speaker 10: to put a time limit on it. Let's do the 924 00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:25,399 Speaker 10: job right and then get out and turn it over 925 00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:27,680 Speaker 10: to the people in the Middle East where they can, 926 00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:31,600 Speaker 10: whether they've got Comane's son or whatever. They're gonna be 927 00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:34,400 Speaker 10: so weak that they'll get help from the outside and 928 00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:36,520 Speaker 10: hopefully turn this thing around. But this is the only 929 00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:37,239 Speaker 10: way we could do it. 930 00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:37,720 Speaker 7: Guys. 931 00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:40,239 Speaker 10: We couldn't sit back and let them get a new 932 00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:43,520 Speaker 10: clear weapon in the future, because it's not like some 933 00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:46,200 Speaker 10: of these other countries that have nuclear weapons. They have 934 00:48:46,239 --> 00:48:48,600 Speaker 10: a lot more sense than this cure. These people live 935 00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:52,360 Speaker 10: off of death. They preached death. They preached death to America, 936 00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:55,480 Speaker 10: and we were gonna get lit up Israel or somebody 937 00:48:55,680 --> 00:48:57,520 Speaker 10: was gonna get lit up with a nuke if we 938 00:48:57,600 --> 00:48:59,080 Speaker 10: allowed them to get a new clear weapon. 939 00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:05,280 Speaker 4: Speaking of Senator Tubberville, Senator, so you have I assume 940 00:49:05,480 --> 00:49:10,759 Speaker 4: full faith in President Trump, Secretary of War. Hegseeth the 941 00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:14,520 Speaker 4: immediate team in the White House Secuary Rubio, to make 942 00:49:14,560 --> 00:49:18,279 Speaker 4: sure that they know when it's time to bring our 943 00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:21,000 Speaker 4: assets home from overseas or at least to stop the bombing. 944 00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:23,200 Speaker 4: That's something you have a high level of confidence in. 945 00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:27,960 Speaker 10: You'd say. And I've been in classified hearings, I've been 946 00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:32,040 Speaker 10: in non classified I talked to them individually quite often, 947 00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:36,120 Speaker 10: even the President. And this is not one of those 948 00:49:36,160 --> 00:49:41,040 Speaker 10: where we're going in to try to build back their country. Now, 949 00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:44,560 Speaker 10: we might give them help in some ways to some point, 950 00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:49,280 Speaker 10: but again, this is not a prolonged fight. We cannot 951 00:49:49,320 --> 00:49:51,600 Speaker 10: afford to do it. I heard you talk earlier about 952 00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:54,720 Speaker 10: gas prices, folks. If we can't live a few weeks 953 00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:57,000 Speaker 10: with higher gas prices to be able to take out 954 00:49:57,080 --> 00:49:59,840 Speaker 10: one of the most dangerous groups in the world that 955 00:50:00,200 --> 00:50:03,920 Speaker 10: want to destroy the United States of America, then something's 956 00:50:03,920 --> 00:50:05,799 Speaker 10: wrong with us. We have to put up with some 957 00:50:05,960 --> 00:50:08,560 Speaker 10: high gas prices. But let me tell you this. I 958 00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:12,640 Speaker 10: was coaching at Texas Tech back in twenty ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen. Okay, 959 00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:15,880 Speaker 10: every year I coached there, I lived right in the 960 00:50:15,880 --> 00:50:19,600 Speaker 10: middle of the heart of all country in the United 961 00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:23,280 Speaker 10: States of America, Love of Texas. All under Barack Obama 962 00:50:23,680 --> 00:50:26,000 Speaker 10: was over one hundred and ten dollars a barrel the 963 00:50:26,160 --> 00:50:29,160 Speaker 10: entire time we were there. Nobody complained about it. We're 964 00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:33,520 Speaker 10: paying three dollars four dollars a gallon, and nobody really 965 00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:36,239 Speaker 10: complains under Barack Obama. Now a couple of weeks we 966 00:50:36,320 --> 00:50:38,000 Speaker 10: have a little bit of a high gas price and 967 00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:41,120 Speaker 10: everybody's panicing. It's not going to happen. This will help 968 00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:44,000 Speaker 10: not just gas prices go down, but it will also 969 00:50:44,080 --> 00:50:46,719 Speaker 10: help us put Chinese to where they should be. And 970 00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:49,799 Speaker 10: that is maybe a very problem than I ran. 971 00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:54,759 Speaker 3: We're talking to Senator Tommy Tuberville, next governor of Alabama. 972 00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:58,880 Speaker 3: But in the meantime, Senator from Alabama, you had to 973 00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:01,520 Speaker 3: feel like your world's colliding. You just mentioned when you 974 00:51:01,520 --> 00:51:03,360 Speaker 3: were coaching at Texas Tech. I was up in the 975 00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:07,439 Speaker 3: White House Friday Urban Meyer's there, Nick Saban is there. 976 00:51:08,400 --> 00:51:10,880 Speaker 3: You've got a lot of people talking about the future 977 00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:12,279 Speaker 3: of college athletics. 978 00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:13,640 Speaker 2: You know this better than anybody. 979 00:51:13,760 --> 00:51:17,080 Speaker 3: I just saw a Senator Chris Murphy of Connecticut chirping 980 00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:20,560 Speaker 3: at you on the internet on social media. 981 00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:21,720 Speaker 1: What should happen? 982 00:51:21,800 --> 00:51:25,920 Speaker 3: What's going to happen when it comes to fixing college athletics. 983 00:51:26,239 --> 00:51:29,239 Speaker 10: Well, Chris Murphy's for tearing down college athletics. He's trying 984 00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:31,239 Speaker 10: to unionize that that's the worst thing we could do. 985 00:51:31,280 --> 00:51:34,800 Speaker 10: But at the end of the day, he's not relevant 986 00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:39,480 Speaker 10: in this talk. That was a good talk last Friday. 987 00:51:39,880 --> 00:51:42,279 Speaker 10: I didn't go. I had other things I had to do. 988 00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:44,520 Speaker 10: But I've had a bill young on this for three years. 989 00:51:44,560 --> 00:51:46,560 Speaker 10: I've put together a bill which was really good. But 990 00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:49,680 Speaker 10: it's all about unionization. The Democrats. We can't get a 991 00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:53,600 Speaker 10: bill passed. Okay, so we're basically talking into the wind 992 00:51:54,239 --> 00:51:56,440 Speaker 10: when this happens. The only person that can do anything 993 00:51:56,480 --> 00:51:59,719 Speaker 10: to this is Donald Trump, and I've talked to him 994 00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:03,520 Speaker 10: about this, and I'm not into all this anti trust stuff. 995 00:52:03,520 --> 00:52:05,759 Speaker 10: You know, the commissioners were there. They need more money 996 00:52:05,880 --> 00:52:08,960 Speaker 10: this or that and and that's fine, but you can't 997 00:52:08,960 --> 00:52:12,000 Speaker 10: get that passed. Let's talk about reality. Here's what President 998 00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:15,919 Speaker 10: Trump can do do an executive order for the rest 999 00:52:15,960 --> 00:52:19,760 Speaker 10: of his term. Okay, folks, you got when you start 1000 00:52:19,800 --> 00:52:23,640 Speaker 10: your clocks in college sports, you got five to play five. 1001 00:52:23,880 --> 00:52:27,160 Speaker 10: So that's it. Nobody goes over that. The second thing 1002 00:52:27,280 --> 00:52:31,520 Speaker 10: is you get one transfer one free transfer without penalty. 1003 00:52:31,640 --> 00:52:33,600 Speaker 10: Now you can transfer again, but you have to go 1004 00:52:33,640 --> 00:52:35,960 Speaker 10: back the old rule. You transfer, you set a year. 1005 00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:38,759 Speaker 10: We've got to do something about the transfer portal. The 1006 00:52:38,840 --> 00:52:40,279 Speaker 10: money is out of the back. I don't care what 1007 00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:42,640 Speaker 10: kind of money they make, because eventually what's going to 1008 00:52:42,719 --> 00:52:46,200 Speaker 10: happen is there's gonna be a donor fatigue. It can't 1009 00:52:46,239 --> 00:52:48,200 Speaker 10: keep spending this kind of money. He can't do it. 1010 00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:50,919 Speaker 10: And so we've got to get the transfer portal back, 1011 00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:54,480 Speaker 10: put education back into it. Get your butt back in class. 1012 00:52:54,760 --> 00:52:56,680 Speaker 10: You're gonna make money, that's fine, but you're gonna go 1013 00:52:56,680 --> 00:52:58,680 Speaker 10: to class. You're gonna keep your grade point up like 1014 00:52:58,719 --> 00:53:00,920 Speaker 10: you used to have to. If you don't fulfill that 1015 00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:04,400 Speaker 10: requirement of going towards a degree every year in school, 1016 00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:06,880 Speaker 10: then you're going to end up losing your scholarship and 1017 00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:09,399 Speaker 10: you're going to end up losing eligibility. But now there 1018 00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:14,640 Speaker 10: is no penalty for doing anything other than just going 1019 00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:18,320 Speaker 10: making money and playing. And what's happening is we're losing fans. 1020 00:53:18,360 --> 00:53:22,160 Speaker 10: And fans are the reason college sports are important because 1021 00:53:22,200 --> 00:53:25,920 Speaker 10: they pay money to go watch these and I'm telling 1022 00:53:25,160 --> 00:53:29,680 Speaker 10: you they're getting the tig from all this because of 1023 00:53:29,680 --> 00:53:31,560 Speaker 10: the non loyalty of the athletes. 1024 00:53:32,640 --> 00:53:34,919 Speaker 3: Last question for you, and this just came down you've 1025 00:53:34,920 --> 00:53:38,200 Speaker 3: probably knew it was coming. Mark Wayne Mullen, one of 1026 00:53:38,239 --> 00:53:41,920 Speaker 3: your Senate colleagues, is going to have his confirmation hearings 1027 00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:45,960 Speaker 3: to be elevated to run the DHS. What can you 1028 00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:48,839 Speaker 3: tell us about Mark Wayne? And do you presume that 1029 00:53:48,880 --> 00:53:51,480 Speaker 3: those will go fairly smoothly. And not only will he 1030 00:53:51,520 --> 00:53:54,760 Speaker 3: get Republican support, but he'll even get I know Fetterman 1031 00:53:54,840 --> 00:53:57,560 Speaker 3: has already said, hey, I'll be supporting this. He'll even 1032 00:53:57,600 --> 00:54:00,640 Speaker 3: be getting some I would imagine Tim or Craft support. 1033 00:54:01,320 --> 00:54:05,040 Speaker 10: Yeah, perfect choice made. He'd make a great head football 1034 00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:07,919 Speaker 10: coach back in the seventies and eighties, walking in the room, 1035 00:54:08,280 --> 00:54:14,080 Speaker 10: demand respect, motivate people to do their job, work ethic 1036 00:54:14,200 --> 00:54:19,120 Speaker 10: is unbelievable, understands this country, loves this country, and he 1037 00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:23,520 Speaker 10: is for America first, not illegal immigration. And so he's 1038 00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:25,560 Speaker 10: gonna be perfect, and he's gonna get quite a few 1039 00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:28,200 Speaker 10: Democrat votes. So he will get he will get pushed 1040 00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:31,200 Speaker 10: through nomination next week. That probably might be his toughest 1041 00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:34,080 Speaker 10: is getting out of committee. Once he gets out of committee, 1042 00:54:34,080 --> 00:54:36,560 Speaker 10: he'll he'll have plenty of votes to get in. We 1043 00:54:36,600 --> 00:54:39,680 Speaker 10: need somebody hard knows, an offensive line coach, basically go 1044 00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:41,319 Speaker 10: in and say, Okay, we're gonna put our nose at 1045 00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:43,919 Speaker 10: the grindstone here and we're gonna grind and we're gonna 1046 00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:46,239 Speaker 10: get this job done. I don't care about being on 1047 00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:49,520 Speaker 10: TV or doing any of that fancy stuff. We're going 1048 00:54:49,600 --> 00:54:51,320 Speaker 10: to be successful in immigration. 1049 00:54:52,840 --> 00:54:56,120 Speaker 3: Awesome, good luck, Senator, we appreciate the time. Good luck 1050 00:54:56,120 --> 00:54:58,160 Speaker 3: in that governor's campaign. I'm sure we'll talk to you 1051 00:54:58,239 --> 00:54:58,719 Speaker 3: again soon. 1052 00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:04,759 Speaker 4: If you walk around the Sexton household these days, you'll 1053 00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:06,360 Speaker 4: see a lot of toys in the ground for ginger 1054 00:55:06,400 --> 00:55:09,279 Speaker 4: and speed, and they're always fighting over whose toys they are, 1055 00:55:09,320 --> 00:55:12,480 Speaker 4: which is fun. But you'd think maybe Cozy Earth just 1056 00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:16,040 Speaker 4: sponsors our whole house, because I walk around Cozy Earth pants, 1057 00:55:16,040 --> 00:55:19,560 Speaker 4: I got Cozy Earth sweatshirts on.
