1 00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:15,239 Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom hunt. The Golden Globes get 2 00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:19,520 Speaker 1: roasted and toasted. Iran retaliation is on the minds of 3 00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:23,480 Speaker 1: everyone across the country right now. Pelosi's real enemy will 4 00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:27,040 Speaker 1: find out who that is. Also the wildfires in Australia, 5 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:30,520 Speaker 1: and so much more coming up. This is the Buck 6 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,879 Speaker 1: Sexton Show, where the mission or mission is to decode 7 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:41,159 Speaker 1: what really matters with actionable intelligence, magnor mistake America. You're 8 00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 1: a great American Again, the Buck Sexton Show begins. He's 9 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:54,280 Speaker 1: a great guy. No. Season two is on the way, 10 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,520 Speaker 1: so in the end he obviously didn't get in sound 11 00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 1: just like Jeffrey Extein. Shut up. I know he's your friend, 12 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 1: but I don't care. Got about your own way? Are 13 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 1: you signed the fire? Welcome the Buck Saxon Show, everybody. 14 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:14,040 Speaker 1: It was quite a weekend, quite a day to get to. 15 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,480 Speaker 1: I know. The most important, the biggest story in the 16 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 1: world is certainly the anticipation of what is going to 17 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:21,839 Speaker 1: come from Iran. Will spend some time on that today, 18 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 1: but I didn't want to lead off with that. There's 19 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 1: going to be plenty of time in the days ahead. 20 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 1: Right now, it seems like it's just mostly speculation as well. 21 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 1: There's not a whole lot that people really know. How 22 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: could anyone know? So instead, I want to talk to 23 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 1: you about the Golden Clubs for a moment. I, like 24 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 1: many of you, i'm sure, do not care at all 25 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:44,959 Speaker 1: to sit and watch people in Hollywood talk about how 26 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: amazing they are get awards, discuss their courage. But I 27 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:53,559 Speaker 1: do like watching a very talented comedian who I would 28 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 1: not It is no particular friend of conservatives. It's not 29 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 1: like he is someone who, for ideological read decided to 30 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 1: make a big thing of making fun of Hollywood. It's 31 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,639 Speaker 1: not like he's a conservative who finally got a chance. No. No, 32 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 1: he makes fun of Christianity constantly in his stand up. 33 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: He makes fun of everybody. But I can respect that 34 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: because he's a comedian and he'll go after whomever. He's 35 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:24,079 Speaker 1: making fun of things. He's not pandering, he's not bending 36 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,080 Speaker 1: the knee. Ricky Gervais is one of it feels like 37 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 1: the very few comedians left these days, and so that's 38 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 1: why what he did last night was so entertaining. And 39 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: I think there's more than just the entertainment factor, which 40 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:38,639 Speaker 1: is why I wanted to talk to you about it today. 41 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: Although his Epstein joke was pretty fantastic. There were some 42 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: other moments as well. Harvey Weinstein, as you may see, 43 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 1: is his trial begins today, and there was a great 44 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: Ricky Gervais joke specifically about Harvey Weinstein, saying that the 45 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,639 Speaker 1: movie Bird Boxes about people who pretend not to see 46 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: anything so they can survive, kind of like working for 47 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,239 Speaker 1: Harvey Weinstein. That was his joke that I thought was 48 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 1: among the very best. He did a fantastic job, but 49 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,920 Speaker 1: it was amazing to see because they panned around the room. 50 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 1: This is the fifth time this guy has done this. 51 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: This is the fifth time he's hosted the Golden Globes. 52 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: The Hollywood Foreign Correspondence or Foreign Press Association or whatever 53 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 1: it's called. Who even knows who these people are. I mean, 54 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 1: I guess it's just foreign journalists that cover media, but 55 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 1: they've created this Golden Globes awards ceremony that is their 56 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 1: most well known. I guess it's the reason this association 57 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: even exists. And I would I would just point out 58 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 1: that you would think these different luminaries of our entertainment industry, 59 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: you would think that they would be in a place 60 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 1: that they would understand they're going to get made fun of. 61 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 1: That's why they bring this guy in because people like me, 62 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: Because people across the country. The day after you have 63 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 1: one of these Ricky Gervase monologues, people talk about it. 64 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: It's great press. People care all of a sudden because 65 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: he's a war Awards ceremonies are ridiculous. Look, I don't 66 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 1: go to the Washington Correspondence dinner. I don't care to 67 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 1: go to the Correspondence dinner. I will not go to 68 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:18,720 Speaker 1: the Correspondence dinner. It's boring mostly, but also I think 69 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 1: the whole thing is kind of bizarre. Well, what's with 70 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,599 Speaker 1: giving out giving out awards like we're all in grammar 71 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,359 Speaker 1: school and need a little plastic trophy to put on 72 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: the shelf? Who cares? That makes no sense at all 73 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: of me, especially as our cultural elites have gotten so 74 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 1: divorced in their taste from the rest of the country. 75 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: This is how you have movies that get nominated and 76 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: win Oscars. I've even heard of these movies. I'm not pretending. 77 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,279 Speaker 1: I mean producer Mark has more of his finger on 78 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 1: the pulse of pop culture than I do. And he 79 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 1: would tell you that he's probably not the most pop 80 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,360 Speaker 1: culture immersed guy around by a long shot. He is 81 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 1: shaking his head vigorously right now, side to side. But 82 00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:58,679 Speaker 1: the fact that I haven't even heard of these movies 83 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 1: just goes to show you that they're is no question 84 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:06,159 Speaker 1: that the people that are making these decisions do not share, 85 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 1: broadly speaking, the sentiments and the sense of what's good. 86 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: In fact, now it's become a point of mockery if 87 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 1: you say, why is it that twenty years ago movies 88 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 1: that one best picture were universally generally beloved? You know, 89 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: movies like I Don't Know Shakespeare and Love Saving Private 90 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 1: Ryan the Pianist. I mean, these are great movies. They 91 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 1: used to win Oscars I'm talking about now. But you 92 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 1: look at the goal, you look at the golden globes 93 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 1: the Oscars today, and it's all this wokeness. It's just wokeness. 94 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: It's all just self performance, even outside of the performative 95 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 1: acts of being a Hollywood celebrity. And because social media 96 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 1: has created a circumstance for us where we can see 97 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:59,160 Speaker 1: who these people are and what they really think, we 98 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 1: recognize that a bunch of big Aramises and so Ricky 99 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 1: Gervais standing up there and marking them he also offend out. 100 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: I mean, we didn't pull that many of his joke 101 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: do we pull any other sprucer mark of his jokes 102 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: specifically because I mean, he's going to deliver them better 103 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: than I do. But it's all right if we don't 104 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 1: want to just yeah, but play, they'll play that one. 105 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 1: Apple rolled into the TV game with a morning show, 106 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:27,720 Speaker 1: a superb drama. Yeah, a superb drama about the importance 107 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,920 Speaker 1: of dignity and doing the right thing, made by a 108 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 1: company that runs sweatshops in China. So well, you say 109 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 1: you woke, But the companies you work for, I mean unbelievable. Apple, Amazon, Disney. 110 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,840 Speaker 1: If Isis started a streaming service, you'd call your agent, 111 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 1: wouldn't you. So if you do win an award tonight, 112 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: it don't use it as a platform to make a 113 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 1: political speech. Right, You're in no position to lecture the 114 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,720 Speaker 1: public about anything. You know nothing about the real world. 115 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 1: Most of you spend less time in school than Greta Thumberg. 116 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 1: So if you win, right, come up except a little awards, 117 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: thank your agent and your gods. Second best joke of 118 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: the night for me after Everstein right there, Many of 119 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 1: them have spent less time in school than young Greta Thundberg, 120 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 1: who is sixteen maybe now seventeen. Many of them left 121 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 1: to be full time actress were thirteen or fourteen years old. Now, 122 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 1: I'm not somebody who believes that you have to have 123 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 1: formal education of any kind to be an educated person. 124 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 1: It's clearly not the case. In fact, we have the 125 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 1: democratization of information in a way now that would have 126 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 1: been unthinkable for autodidacts even what one hundred years ago, 127 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 1: fifty years ago. And you can give yourself as long 128 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: as you have someone to guide you along with the 129 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: basic skills. You have to learn how to read, and 130 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: probably can't just do that without you can just flip 131 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 1: on a computer and although maybe we'll get to the 132 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 1: point where it's all automated, but you have the skill 133 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 1: set now. If you have the basic skill set now 134 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: rather to operate the information machinery around you, you you can 135 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: teach yourself almost anything. That all said, Hollywood stars and 136 00:07:55,960 --> 00:08:01,640 Speaker 1: celebrities are not an intellectually curious bunch. They generally speaking, 137 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: the very very well known ones have actually made it 138 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: where they are largely by winning the genetics lottery in 139 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 1: a sense, by being really, really good looking, we're talking 140 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 1: about this room of people. They're all, you know, physically, 141 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 1: some of them have gotten, you know, considerably older now, 142 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 1: but you know, the ladies were bombshells and the guys 143 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: were you know, leading men, handsome you know whatever we 144 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 1: call the handsome leading men of today, I don't know. 145 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 1: But the point is they've done nothing to get where 146 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 1: they are other than be very lucky in a lot 147 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 1: of ways starting at birth, and then happen to operate 148 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 1: within a Hollywood machinery that is as left wing as 149 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 1: the faculty lounge of Wesleyan University. I mean, that's that's 150 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:47,840 Speaker 1: what is the reality of Hollywood today, and unfortunately, it 151 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 1: has already made its way into that wokeness has made 152 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: its way into these major digital b emits places like 153 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: Amazon and Netflix and although Disney Plus I gotta give 154 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:02,800 Speaker 1: a little credit, Man Lauran is awesome, and Baby Yoda, 155 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 1: this is the way. It's amazing. Man Laurian's an excellent show. 156 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: If you haven't seen it any The Witcher is trash. 157 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: If you want to just avoid that, I'm trying to 158 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 1: help you out here, save your time. But we already 159 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 1: know there's a left wing tilt to these places. I mean, 160 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 1: Jake Karney got hired by Amazon Content as though like 161 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 1: he knows something about doing scripted content. He got hired 162 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 1: right of the Obama administration. The Obamas have this Netflix deal. 163 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:28,200 Speaker 1: So it's not like it's getting better because the studio system, 164 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 1: the Hollywood movie studio system, has broken down and is 165 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 1: not what it used to be. I mean they use 166 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,479 Speaker 1: that used to be the top of the entertainment pyramid. 167 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: You'd go to Universal Studios, you go to I guess MGM, 168 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: I don't even know what. They're all called Warner Brothers. 169 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,440 Speaker 1: So you go to these places, and you know they 170 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 1: could they could write a check effectively to spend one 171 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 1: hundred million dollars on a movie. Well, Netflix and Amazon, 172 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,439 Speaker 1: they'll spend one hundred million dollars on a brand new 173 00:09:56,440 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 1: TV show no one's ever heard of. So that's or 174 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,560 Speaker 1: a movie. And I saw this movie with Will Smith 175 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: called Bright. It was very strange movie. It spent one 176 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: hundred million dollars on that. Many of you have probably 177 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 1: most of you, I'm sure I've never even heard of it. 178 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 1: It's on Netflix. Watch it your own risk. My little 179 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:17,439 Speaker 1: brother hated it. I think that it was had its moments. 180 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: It wasn't terrible. I mean it was bad, but it 181 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 1: wasn't like the word. It wasn't the witcher bad. The 182 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 1: witcher should not now be an epithet like yo, man, 183 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 1: that that thing you just did that was worse than 184 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 1: the Witcher. You should just be able to say that 185 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 1: to people. But why does this also have a broader 186 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 1: How does this tie into things that matter more to 187 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 1: us than just trashing Hollywood. Well, for one, I think 188 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 1: that what we've seen is that the cultural elites in 189 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 1: this country, just like just like it has been the 190 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:50,960 Speaker 1: case with news media elites, we are now more aware 191 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:53,199 Speaker 1: than ever because they exposed themselves to us. And I 192 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 1: don't mean that in like a whoa kind of way, 193 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 1: although they do that too. They exposed themselves to us 194 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 1: more than they have and so we're more aware of 195 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: the politics the beliefs of the people that make entertainment. 196 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 1: And this is why even those of you who you know, 197 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:12,960 Speaker 1: you read a ton, you read books all the time, 198 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 1: you care about the constitution, and you listen to talk radio. 199 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 1: If you listen to this, even if you ignore pop culture, 200 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 1: pop culture doesn't ignore you. This has a tremendous effect 201 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 1: a tremendous effect on perceptions of tens of millions of people, 202 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:34,200 Speaker 1: hundreds of millions of people across the country. It affects 203 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 1: the way they think. And you live in this country 204 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 1: with those people, so it should it has to matter 205 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 1: to you at some level what's going on with these individuals. 206 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 1: They are incredibly sanctimonious but also deeply insecure, which you 207 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:53,959 Speaker 1: tend to see among elites who are largely unearned in 208 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 1: their placement in society. This is true of TV journalists 209 00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 1: that I talked to you about a lot of the time. 210 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 1: I mean people like Chuck Time What's what's impressive? People 211 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 1: like Jake Tapper or or what was his name? The 212 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,840 Speaker 1: guy that was there in a rock except he wasn't, 213 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 1: you know, on the plane that got or the helicopter 214 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 1: hit by Always I always forget his name, but you 215 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 1: know he's the was the biggest newsman at NBC News 216 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:16,720 Speaker 1: producer Nick is going to send me the name in 217 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: a second. I'm just blanking on it. But those individuals 218 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: either just sucked up to the right people in the 219 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 1: news media chain of command. Todd Tapper. I was gonna 220 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 1: say Jennings, but he passed away a long time and 221 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 1: I'm trying to think of the guy. Who's the guy 222 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 1: Brian Williams. Brian Williams. That guy looks and sounds like 223 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 1: a news anchor supposed to and I think I might. 224 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,439 Speaker 1: I've be sure the guy again. Being an autodidact is fun. 225 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 1: I've taught myself much more than I learned in college 226 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 1: as an adult, no question about it. I learned not 227 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 1: a whole lot in college, and I actually tried to study. 228 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 1: But it's one thing if you leave, you know, if 229 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 1: you don't finish high school, you don't finish the tenth grade, 230 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,120 Speaker 1: and then you spend the rest of your life going 231 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 1: to cocktail parties and try to tell everybody how brilliant 232 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 1: you are, but you haven't done the work. And these 233 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 1: people in the news media and these people in Hollywood 234 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,559 Speaker 1: who want to lecture us on women's rights and diversity 235 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: and climate change and all this stuff, they haven't done 236 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 1: the work. And it used to be that we had 237 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 1: to take that from we had to be able to 238 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 1: extrapolate that on our own, from watching, from being a 239 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 1: viewer of the product that they put out there. But now, 240 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 1: because of social media and they like to put out 241 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 1: their tweets, and like to do little FaceTime or Facebook 242 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 1: videos or videos on Instagram. TikTok, this Chinese site that 243 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:34,520 Speaker 1: I still don't really understand what it is, but I 244 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 1: have seen it, but I don't really get why people 245 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,160 Speaker 1: like it so much. I was right, by the way 246 00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 1: about Snapchat, that normal adults don't want to put fake 247 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: cat faces on themselves and have their vices go really high, 248 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: like that's not cool or cute if you're a teenager. 249 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: If you're twelve, fine, But that that's why I knew 250 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 1: Snapchat was toast years ago, so I feel good about that. 251 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 1: I also knew that the Huffington Post was basically built 252 00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,679 Speaker 1: on a foundation of sand, and that it wasn't going 253 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 1: to grow, and that wasn't making money, that BuzzFeed wasn't 254 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 1: glorified cat blog, which we've all been calling it for years. 255 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: I mean, you can see what these things are, but 256 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: if they raise enough venture capital funds that they have 257 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 1: enough money, they can just force feed themselves to you, 258 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 1: so you have no way to escape, no way to 259 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 1: get away from whatever it is that they're trying to 260 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 1: present to you. Mike dot Com I remember that Mike 261 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 1: dot Com actually try to hire me years ago, believe 262 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 1: it or not, Yeah, I know. And then I saw 263 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 1: the front page of their website right before I went 264 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 1: down for a meeting, and it was like the most 265 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 1: anti cop, absurd Black Lives Matter is saving the country 266 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: kind of stuff I've ever seen in my life. And 267 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 1: I was like, I can't. I was supposed to be 268 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 1: an opposition sort of columnists from anyone. I was like, 269 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 1: this site isn't gonna work either. But the media that 270 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 1: we have now, especially the entertainment medium, is going through 271 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 1: a phase that I would say is somewhat similar to 272 00:14:55,880 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 1: the dissolution of monarchy, which now I think they're about 273 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 1: a dozen or so monarchy still technically in existence in Europe. 274 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 1: But up until World War One you had all you 275 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: had monarchies that had real power, and then eventually over 276 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 1: those serious It really took a couple of centuries, but 277 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 1: people started saying, hold on a minute, why are these 278 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: people in charge, what's so what's so good about them? 279 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 1: Why should we listen to them? Why should they be 280 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 1: able to determine my future or my fate. Now I'm 281 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 1: not saying that, you know, Salmahiac or Brad pitt Or, 282 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 1: and I actually kind of like those two. I'm sure 283 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 1: I should think of someone ones that I hate off 284 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 1: the top of my head, or I shouldn't say hate 285 00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 1: too strong a word that I that are worthy of 286 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 1: particular ridicule. Jennifer Anderson looking like she was going to 287 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 1: cry talking about, uh, you know, Russell Crowe and the 288 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,360 Speaker 1: climate change problem. I mean, yeah, the brush fires in Australia. 289 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 1: We'll talk about that. That's incredibly serious. It's deeply saddening 290 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 1: that there's all these animals that are burning there. But 291 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: claiming that we all have that that Hollywood is going 292 00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 1: to lead the charge to change the world and climate 293 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 1: change in the economy, and that's really what Russell crow wants. 294 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 1: These people are such blowhearts, and they must know it 295 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 1: at some level too, which is why they stand up 296 00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 1: there and say the things that they do in the 297 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 1: way that they do. I don't mean it might be subconscious, 298 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 1: but most of them have been revered for the most 299 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 1: superficial of things imaginable, and yet they have much more 300 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 1: sway among superficial and I think you could say low 301 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: information audiences, and so they use that, they wield that. 302 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 1: But the monarchy of Hollywood, the monarchy of the Hollywood 303 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,720 Speaker 1: studio system is breaking down and movies aren't what they 304 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 1: used to be, as Ricky Gervais said, and we are 305 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 1: entering into a phase here where as long as we 306 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 1: can start to wrestle control back from some of the 307 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 1: major digital the online, the internet gatekeepers, maybe we won't 308 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 1: have to be force fed this garbage by the Hollywood 309 00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 1: media anymore. Anyway, that was what I took from Ricky 310 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:04,359 Speaker 1: Gervases each last side you're in the Freedom Hunt. This 311 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 1: is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. Just to know that 312 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:12,879 Speaker 1: there's a there's a part of me that still feels 313 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 1: a little sad for people who I can't tell. I 314 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:17,960 Speaker 1: don't know if they're really brainwash or not. But the 315 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 1: La Times media critic wrote this whole piece in the 316 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 1: La Times after Golden Globes about how those celebrities it's 317 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 1: it's been really hard for them because of all the 318 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 1: issues because of Trump and climate change in the Australia, uh, 319 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 1: you know, wildfires and all this stuff. That it was 320 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,920 Speaker 1: really a solemn night actually, and that Ricky Gervais would 321 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 1: go in there and be disrespectful, he missed the mark 322 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:42,080 Speaker 1: and everyone else is like nope, it was amazing. But 323 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,800 Speaker 1: I think for a lot of people still. Unfortunately, you know, 324 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 1: while monarchies are crumbling, there's so a lot of court jesters, 325 00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:51,119 Speaker 1: and some people like this La Times columnist still have 326 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,119 Speaker 1: to bend the knee. It's one of the things I 327 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 1: love about this show and never have to bend the knee. 328 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 1: Thanks for listening to The bus Sexton Show podcasts.

What the United States did yesterday 331 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:11,760 Speaker 1: should have been done long ago. A lot of lives 332 00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:15,959 Speaker 1: would have been saved. Just recently, Soloman he led the 333 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 1: brutal repression of protesters in Iran, were more than a 334 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 1: thousand innocent civilians were tortured and killed by their own government. 335 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 1: We took action last night to stop a war. We 336 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:36,639 Speaker 1: did not take action to start a war. I was 337 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 1: President Trump On Friday after the show, he gave a 338 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:41,920 Speaker 1: little speech, and I wanted to share it with you 339 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 1: because there's so much bad analysis out there right now, 340 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:54,120 Speaker 1: and so much stupidity and recklessness and dishonesty among those 341 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:57,480 Speaker 1: who are supposed to bring clarity and facts and necessary 342 00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:00,160 Speaker 1: context to a moment like this. Because the stakes are 343 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: quite high, I don't think we are heading to war 344 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:06,160 Speaker 1: with Iran. I would put the percentage at less than 345 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 1: ten that we are going to get into any kind 346 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 1: of protracted escalation with Iran that involves US military use 347 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,880 Speaker 1: of force on a consistent basis and large numbers numbers 348 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:20,880 Speaker 1: of casualties. You see, we have to start to define 349 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:27,119 Speaker 1: this because one aspect of this whole exchange, and this 350 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 1: does get into some of the most important it's among 351 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:31,960 Speaker 1: the most important things we as a people. We the 352 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 1: American people, can consider and think about war, but also 353 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 1: cannot allow to be exaggerated. It can't just be well, 354 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 1: we do nothing or we have all out war. That's 355 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 1: not the reality of the situation Iran. It's almost never 356 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 1: the reality that we face anywhere. But a part of 357 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:52,560 Speaker 1: the context that gets lost here is that the Iranians 358 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 1: have been doing things for such a long time that 359 00:19:56,640 --> 00:20:00,879 Speaker 1: would be in other circumstances with another country, an act 360 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,399 Speaker 1: of war that would lead to open military hostilities that 361 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 1: we've almost become numb to it. We just take it. 362 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,200 Speaker 1: We're sort of like Gulliver being you know, tied down 363 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 1: by the little Aputians. With the Iranians, well, of course 364 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:14,399 Speaker 1: they were able to time down for a while. But 365 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:17,879 Speaker 1: you know, they're just throwing things at us and trying 366 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:21,200 Speaker 1: to agitate us, and because we're so much more powerful 367 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 1: than they are, we always say, okay, well, you know, 368 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 1: we don't want to we don't want to overreact, we 369 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 1: don't want to miscalculate. People who have been talking a 370 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:34,120 Speaker 1: lot about the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps the Kud's Force, 371 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:38,719 Speaker 1: which is just the external operations arm right IRGC internally, 372 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:42,720 Speaker 1: is part of the repression machinery the Iranian people. It's 373 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,200 Speaker 1: very much, very similar to what you would have had, 374 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 1: say in the Soviet era with the KGB, and the 375 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 1: KGB was an intelligence service, was also really a paramilitary service, 376 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 1: and it was it was just the action arm the 377 00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:02,399 Speaker 1: concentrated violence and brutality of the state, that's really the 378 00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 1: purpose of it. And so the KOODS Force is an 379 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 1: extension of that beyond Iranian boundaries and territory and has 380 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:14,399 Speaker 1: been spreading misery and destruction across the region for quite 381 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 1: some time, for decades. Really, remember Iran seized our embassy 382 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:25,120 Speaker 1: and took our people hostage. Did we engage in massive 383 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,160 Speaker 1: military retaliation as a result of that? When that happened 384 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 1: to the Carter administration, go all the way back to 385 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 1: nineteen seventy nine. No, no, we did not. Iran was 386 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 1: involved in the Khobar Towers attack in Saudi Arabia against 387 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 1: US military person. Was there anything done major in response 388 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:51,640 Speaker 1: to that? No, there was not. Now, there have been 389 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:53,639 Speaker 1: some moments in time where we have taken action against 390 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:55,960 Speaker 1: the Iranians. I mentioned the tank award you before, and 391 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 1: there was a very unfortunate incident where a US guided 392 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:02,400 Speaker 1: missile destroyer shot Iranian civilian jetliner out of the sky 393 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,199 Speaker 1: thinking that it was an enemy fighter plane killed I 394 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 1: think almost two hundred people. Very a very tragic day. 395 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:13,680 Speaker 1: So I'm not saying that there has not been use 396 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:16,639 Speaker 1: of force and that have not been miscalculations. Clearly that 397 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 1: was a major miscalculation. But this has been going on 398 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:23,199 Speaker 1: for a very long time. At what point do we 399 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:29,200 Speaker 1: decide that just sanctions and just terse words are not enough. 400 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 1: At what point do we turn around and say, you know, 401 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 1: this is not going to stand anymore. I mean, Kasam 402 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 1: Salamani was a designated terrorist, a designated terrorist by the 403 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 1: United States government. He was openly plotting against American and 404 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,360 Speaker 1: it's now You could say that our government is lying 405 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 1: to us about this, and to that I would say, 406 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 1: you know, there are lies that you could excuse, or 407 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 1: rather you could understand how somebody in the apparatus could 408 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,159 Speaker 1: excuse for reasons of politics or things that somebody might 409 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 1: push aside and say there's something bigger here, there's something 410 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:09,320 Speaker 1: greater here. In this case, I'm not saying this is impossible. 411 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:11,639 Speaker 1: The government has lied to us about things before, and 412 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 1: the government has been wrong before and sometimes wrong and 413 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 1: lies are a very close call which one you're really 414 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,640 Speaker 1: dealing with. We were wrong about the weapons of mass 415 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 1: destruction as presented by Colin Powett, the United Nations, etc. Etc. 416 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 1: Under the Bush administration. We were wrong. And we have 417 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 1: to look at the Iraq War now and wonder what 418 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:34,680 Speaker 1: exactly has been accomplished here. When you have the Iraqi Parliament, 419 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 1: it's a non binding resolution they voted on but saying 420 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 1: they want the United States to leave. Understand this a 421 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 1: shift in US national security posture that is meaningful would 422 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 1: result in the United States taking an approach where not 423 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 1: only are we not going to rebuild other countries, We're 424 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 1: not going to do Afghanistan anymore. We're not going to 425 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:01,399 Speaker 1: do Iraq anymore. Starting to get a little bit of 426 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,640 Speaker 1: that serious situation. Oh, remember when we abandoned the curds 427 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 1: and it was the worst thing ever, you know it. 428 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:10,720 Speaker 1: It was the most most depraved act by a US 429 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:13,200 Speaker 1: president in history. And all this crazy stuff they were saying, 430 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 1: it seems like everything's kind of just continuing on. Life 431 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 1: has gone on. There has not been some mass genocide 432 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 1: that Turks haven't, you know, dropped gas all over Syria 433 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:25,640 Speaker 1: to kill all the curds. I mean that this has 434 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 1: not happened. Remember when people were all historical about this 435 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:32,119 Speaker 1: and there was oh, there was so much rending of 436 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 1: garments and gnashing of teeth by the Democrats over there 437 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:39,680 Speaker 1: were so very, very upset. Did they really care about 438 00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:41,199 Speaker 1: the curds? I was telling you. The answer was no. 439 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 1: Do we think that I was probably right about that. 440 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:47,160 Speaker 1: If we have to look at it at this point, 441 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:51,399 Speaker 1: you probably have to say, well, I think it's clear 442 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 1: that that was all done as a as a show 443 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:59,159 Speaker 1: against President Trump. That was all meant to just be 444 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:02,080 Speaker 1: an opportunity to attack him domestically. But if we and 445 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:04,160 Speaker 1: I'll get into the politics of this morning moment, because 446 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 1: it look there's a lot of moving pieces here, and 447 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 1: I'm trying to avoid just the there's always all the people, 448 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 1: the speculation I see we're in Oh, you know, they 449 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:14,199 Speaker 1: might hit us here. The mine is there. We've done 450 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,440 Speaker 1: a little bit of that just to fill out our 451 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 1: conversation here. But until they do something, we don't know 452 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:21,760 Speaker 1: what the Iranians have done. It's the most simple, straightforward 453 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 1: it's so blatant, it's so obvious. It feels weird even 454 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:29,159 Speaker 1: saying it. But sometimes you have to repeat and you 455 00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:34,520 Speaker 1: have to be very clear with statements like that, because 456 00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 1: people are getting way ahead of themselves, racking like we're 457 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:41,119 Speaker 1: already in some elevated state of hostilities. Kasam Solamani is 458 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 1: one man the Iranians when they were fighting the Iraqis 459 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 1: in the Iran Iraq War of the nineteen eighties went 460 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 1: on for nine years, they trained Iranian youth to run 461 00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 1: across mine fields to try to clear them. How do 462 00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 1: you things that worked out? It's effectively telling people it's 463 00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 1: it's a suicide bomber. We're not taking anyone out but yourself. 464 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 1: Effectively using human beings to clear mind fields, because that 465 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:13,479 Speaker 1: was the mentality. That's the truth of what's in the 466 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:18,879 Speaker 1: heart of these mullahs, these theocrats, right, these they're religious fanatics, 467 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 1: which is frightening. Now, religious fanatics, you know, they still 468 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:25,239 Speaker 1: deal with some of the same day to day They 469 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 1: deal with many of the same day to day constraints 470 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 1: the rest of us do if they if they want 471 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:32,199 Speaker 1: to live. But a true religious fanatic along the lines 472 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:35,399 Speaker 1: of the Iranian mulas, who believe that they are in 473 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:40,119 Speaker 1: a protracted war with non Muslims, with the West, with Israel, 474 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:46,440 Speaker 1: with America, they're willing to do effectively anything. And that's 475 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:48,719 Speaker 1: why we have this big problem of course of Iran 476 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,639 Speaker 1: possibly getting nuclear weapons and what would it mean and 477 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 1: what would happen after that. But if we're going to 478 00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 1: change the policy, and this is where this is where 479 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:03,439 Speaker 1: the Trumps disrupt or fact has to come into the conversation. 480 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:06,200 Speaker 1: If we're going to change the policy of the United 481 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:10,920 Speaker 1: States when it comes to foreign relations, national security, international affairs, 482 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:14,679 Speaker 1: however you want to put it, that means not only 483 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,680 Speaker 1: are we going to avoid the reconstruction of these other 484 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 1: countries trying to create flower essentially the neo Khan approach 485 00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 1: on the right done can't do that anymore. But that's 486 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 1: going to mean something else as well. There will be 487 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 1: countries where terrible things happen. There will be countries where 488 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:35,720 Speaker 1: we will be quite aware. I mean, this was certainly 489 00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,639 Speaker 1: the case for almost all of Obama's time in office. 490 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 1: The Syrian Civil War turned into the eighth circle of 491 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,919 Speaker 1: how how much worse could it really have been? Hundreds 492 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 1: of thousands dead, mass rapes, mass murders, gas attacks, whole 493 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,879 Speaker 1: cities leveled. I mean, how much worse could the Syrian 494 00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:55,600 Speaker 1: Civil War have been? And keep in mind that we 495 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 1: took this under the obaministration. We took this position that 496 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 1: our leadership was going to try to bring this to 497 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 1: a close sooner, and that there would be a UN mandate. 498 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:05,920 Speaker 1: There was a UN mandate to make sure the violence 499 00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 1: would end a political settlement. This was the stuff they're 500 00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:10,919 Speaker 1: talking about now. It seems preposterous because they didn't do 501 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 1: a thing. And then Obama's Pentagon Plan they spent I 502 00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:15,680 Speaker 1: think it was five hundred million dollars to put five 503 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 1: actual fighters into the conflict. And then there are people 504 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 1: who still talk about the running of weapons from Libya 505 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 1: to Syria or try to help the anti assad Syrian 506 00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:28,439 Speaker 1: forces geehotists under the Obamaster. I mean, it's just a 507 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:31,760 Speaker 1: complete mess, a nightmare. Here's the part of this that 508 00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 1: gets complex, that gets difficult for a lot of people, 509 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,439 Speaker 1: because we just have the Iraqi problem, a non binding 510 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 1: vote for us to leave Iraq. If we leave Iraq, 511 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 1: things You're going to get very very ugly there. It's 512 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 1: going to get very messy. If we leave Afghanistan things. 513 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 1: I will tell you the truth about this. A lot 514 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 1: of people will, you know, thump their chests, especially a 515 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 1: lot of the think tankers out there. They'll thump their 516 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 1: chests and say, you know, no, no, we should say 517 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 1: forever and or they'll say we should pull out and 518 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 1: everything will be fine. I'm here to tell you know, 519 00:28:58,080 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 1: we should pull out, and everything's not going to be 520 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 1: fine because we no longer I mean, this was this 521 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 1: was a promise that Trump was making. No more endless war, 522 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:10,800 Speaker 1: no more wars that are unnecessary in the first place, 523 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: an endless occupation of these foreign countries. I remember, occupation 524 00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 1: is different from having a base. I hate when people 525 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 1: do this so well, we have troops. We have troops 526 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 1: in South Korea. Yeah, because South Korea is a stable 527 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:27,479 Speaker 1: nation state under threat from an external regime. I understand that, 528 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 1: but no one's really worried that South Korea is going 529 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 1: to dissolve anytime soon, or that our troops are going 530 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 1: to come under assault, you know, driving down the streets 531 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 1: of Seoul. They are worried about that. In Kabble, in 532 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:44,960 Speaker 1: Jalalabad and coast, in different parts of Afghanistan, they are 533 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 1: concerned about that is that is a problem. So I 534 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 1: think that this is where we have to say, you're 535 00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 1: going to see you're going to see a decision point 536 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:02,400 Speaker 1: here for the up administration in Afghanistan and for Iroq. 537 00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 1: This is forcing our hand that we will have to 538 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 1: be willing to leave these places and leave them knowing 539 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:11,920 Speaker 1: that very bad things will happen, and that yes, eighty 540 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:15,239 Speaker 1: second Airborne, Yes a marine expeditionary force. Our soldiers are 541 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:18,840 Speaker 1: troops who are good people, who do good things, who 542 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: are the most talented, exceptional and humane fighting force the 543 00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 1: world has ever known. We could stop it, but we 544 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 1: would have to take responsibility again and we would have 545 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 1: to lose our people, and we don't want to do 546 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 1: it anymore. Maybe other countries need to start figuring out 547 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:36,720 Speaker 1: some stuff on their own. They're going to be messy, 548 00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 1: messy places, and maybe all of a sudden Trump has 549 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:43,120 Speaker 1: brought to the fore the possibility that we won't be 550 00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:46,920 Speaker 1: building these countries anymore, we won't be responsible for their elections, 551 00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 1: and they're no done with that. And by the way, 552 00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:52,080 Speaker 1: if anybody in those countries then, or if those countries 553 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 1: are used as launch pads for attacks, or even if 554 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:58,280 Speaker 1: the national government decides to wage war in the United States, 555 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: as Iran has been doing, we will go back at 556 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 1: them in a way that right now feels perhaps excessive 557 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:11,720 Speaker 1: to some of us, but that excess may bring about 558 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 1: a new reality where countries know that will no longer 559 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:18,080 Speaker 1: cross us. Or the idea of a Kassams Solimani, a 560 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 1: very senior government official from a foreign nation state, wouldn't 561 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 1: dream of taking selfies and smiling while he's thinking about 562 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:32,200 Speaker 1: the next operation against US interests US troops, that somebody 563 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 1: with the blood of so many hundreds of American soldiers, 564 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 1: soldiers who never made it home to this country, because 565 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:41,960 Speaker 1: Kassams Solimani wanted to do the bidding of the mulas 566 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 1: in a country that is not Iran, that nobody would 567 00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 1: ever consider doing that again, because they understand if you 568 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:51,120 Speaker 1: harm us like this, we will come after you, we 569 00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 1: will kill you. We don't care what bureaucrats in Europe say. 570 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,480 Speaker 1: We don't care what the so called international consensus of 571 00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 1: media elites, unfortunately overwhelmingly staffed with vain cowards. We don't 572 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 1: care what they say. The country is going to take 573 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 1: a different approach because the approach we have been taking 574 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 1: on a bipartisan basis for the last twenty years has 575 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 1: not worked, I would say for last seventy years. But 576 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:21,320 Speaker 1: a different conversation. So what I think comes next, Well 577 00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 1: for that, I might as will turn to what some 578 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:28,400 Speaker 1: of the Democrats are saying. You're in the freedom hunt. 579 00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:35,800 Speaker 1: This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. As president, would 580 00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 1: you not prioritize the US military killing the leaders of 581 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:45,800 Speaker 1: organizations designated terrorist organizations? Look, the job as the president 582 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:49,240 Speaker 1: is to keep us safe. And we know in this 583 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 1: circumstance that Donald Trump was presented with a range of 584 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:56,760 Speaker 1: options by way of response. But the point is not 585 00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 1: to try to move us closer toward the point is 586 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:03,120 Speaker 1: to move away from nim. Well. You see, if NIFF, 587 00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:07,000 Speaker 1: if Donald Trump is for something, I have to be 588 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 1: against it, even if that means taking out terrorists. Who 589 00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 1: have done terrible things. Elizabeth Warren's commander in chief. Folks. 590 00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:20,000 Speaker 1: That's that's what a lot of Democrats, at least about 591 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:23,400 Speaker 1: getting up on around twenty percent of them, give for take, 592 00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:26,800 Speaker 1: that's what they think should happen. You see this with 593 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:30,640 Speaker 1: all these different Democrats coming out now saying things that 594 00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 1: are simply absurd. They don't care. They don't care about 595 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:40,880 Speaker 1: what the reality is of the strike so much as 596 00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 1: they care about what the politics of the moment demand 597 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 1: of them. To say that is the simple truth. That's 598 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 1: what really motivates them one way or the other. Here is, 599 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 1: for example, Senator Chris Murphy, who does confer upon Kastam 600 00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:03,000 Speaker 1: Solomani a kind of special immunity play clip twenty eight place. 601 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:07,200 Speaker 1: It is an assassination. I mean, this is a top 602 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 1: official of a foreign government, is in the head of 603 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:15,279 Speaker 1: a non state terrorist group. No matter how bad a 604 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 1: guy he is, how evil he was, he was a 605 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:23,359 Speaker 1: commanding general of a sovereign foreign nation and we executed him. 606 00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 1: So I don't think you can call it anything other 607 00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 1: than an assassination. It's not the first time that America 608 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 1: has been involved in assassinating a foreign official, but it's 609 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:35,279 Speaker 1: probably the most high profile foreign official that the United 610 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 1: States military has ever executed. He seems to forget that 611 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:42,839 Speaker 1: when we declared warren Sadam Hussein, we blew up all 612 00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:45,399 Speaker 1: of his palaces, not just because we wanted to see 613 00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:48,879 Speaker 1: them glow in the dark. We were trying to kill him. 614 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,560 Speaker 1: This is the reality. This is why, in fact, even 615 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:54,640 Speaker 1: if we're talking about civilian control of a military, when 616 00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:56,839 Speaker 1: you are the commander in chief of a foreign nation 617 00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:00,840 Speaker 1: and you are in a state of war, guess what 618 00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:06,200 Speaker 1: you are in jeopardy. That is the truth. We can 619 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:08,920 Speaker 1: persue that there's international law that prevents this and all 620 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:11,960 Speaker 1: the rest of it. But does anyone really believe if 621 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 1: Kim Jong un was about to tell his you know, 622 00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:19,839 Speaker 1: missile brigades to launch on South Korea, and we knew 623 00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:23,400 Speaker 1: that taking him out would prevent that launch, does anyone 624 00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:25,800 Speaker 1: really think that we'd beginning lectures about how it's a 625 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:30,360 Speaker 1: war crime to take out Kim Jong on. I just 626 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:32,239 Speaker 1: pose this to you. First of all, he's wrong on 627 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:34,600 Speaker 1: the merits as well about calling this, or just wrong 628 00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:39,440 Speaker 1: technically about calling this an assassination. This was a military 629 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:43,360 Speaker 1: figure in a declared war zone, engaged in active hostilities 630 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:47,400 Speaker 1: against the United States. Do you think that we could, like, 631 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:49,600 Speaker 1: you know, we could deploy a three star general just 632 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:52,719 Speaker 1: you know, air drop him into into Iran and have 633 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:54,719 Speaker 1: him walk around and try to start calling in air 634 00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:57,239 Speaker 1: strikes on targets in Tehran, and then if someone you 635 00:35:57,239 --> 00:35:59,879 Speaker 1: know took him out, we'd say, whoa hold on, that's 636 00:35:59,880 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 1: a three star general. You can't do that. That's actually 637 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,120 Speaker 1: not how it works, But Chris Murphy doesn't care. It's 638 00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:07,520 Speaker 1: all about trashing Trump. Thanks for listening to The Bus 639 00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:11,600 Speaker 1: Sesson Show podcasts.

Iran announced 641 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:24,120 Speaker 1: today that is accelerating this nuclear program. Guests, who loses 642 00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 1: that America and its allies. There was an airtight agreement 643 00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:32,799 Speaker 1: we had with inspectors on the ground, the most intrusive 644 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 1: inspection and all of human history, not hyperbole. We knew 645 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:42,960 Speaker 1: exactly We're in every single facility the International Toomic Energy Agency, 646 00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 1: and they were not violated. They're not good guys, but 647 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 1: they were not moving toward a nuclear weapon and there 648 00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:50,840 Speaker 1: was no chance they could get there without us knowing it. 649 00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:53,839 Speaker 1: At least a year to two years in advance, giving 650 00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:58,279 Speaker 1: us plenty of options. Joe Biden's delusional. But remember, Joe 651 00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:01,600 Speaker 1: Biden has been liably and in this way he's actually 652 00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:04,720 Speaker 1: very useful on foreign policy. He has been reliably wrong 653 00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:08,960 Speaker 1: on every foreign policy issue of any importance for forty years. 654 00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:12,440 Speaker 1: Whatever Joe Biden wanted to do or didn't want to do, 655 00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:16,239 Speaker 1: the opposite of that thing was the good idea. So 656 00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 1: Joe Biden's great in this way. Just make sure you 657 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:21,960 Speaker 1: oppose Joe Biden on any foreign policy issue and you'll 658 00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:24,560 Speaker 1: be in good shape. And here he is saying this 659 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,920 Speaker 1: irandeal was ironclad and air tight. And well, hold on 660 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:31,920 Speaker 1: a second. What happens when the Iranians want to just 661 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 1: decide to restart their nuclear program. It's just like, okay, 662 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:40,239 Speaker 1: let the assembly line start going again. We're supposed to 663 00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:42,880 Speaker 1: live with that as the reality of the Iranian state. 664 00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:45,640 Speaker 1: We're supposed to let the Iranians. And by the way, 665 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:48,440 Speaker 1: they always leave this out, there were sunset provisions in 666 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:52,399 Speaker 1: this process. No sunset on the Iranian nuclear program. Mind 667 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:55,160 Speaker 1: you just if you obey. If you do, you know 668 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:57,200 Speaker 1: what we've outlined in this agreement, which allows them to 669 00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:01,160 Speaker 1: keep their nuclear program, keep sending aid to terrorist regimes 670 00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:03,680 Speaker 1: all across the Middle East, threatening our people, taking our 671 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:06,120 Speaker 1: navy sailors hostage, making a mockery of them. All the 672 00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:09,080 Speaker 1: stuff that they've done, all the things, all the provocations 673 00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:15,239 Speaker 1: from Iran, and with all of that, they could still 674 00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 1: at any point in time do exactly what they're now 675 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 1: threatening to do, which is just start spinning the center 676 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:22,720 Speaker 1: fugues again. And they think this was a good agreement. 677 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:26,360 Speaker 1: Why should we live within Iranian state that is already there, 678 00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:31,719 Speaker 1: that is at that point. Oh, I'm sorry, We're gonna 679 00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:34,480 Speaker 1: wait five or ten years till Costam Solomani, for example, Well, 680 00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:38,319 Speaker 1: this isn't a problem anymore because he's he's taking a 681 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:41,319 Speaker 1: very long nap. But while Kastam Solomani, he was going 682 00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:43,120 Speaker 1: to come off this sanctions list. They were saying at 683 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:45,719 Speaker 1: one point come off a nuclear sanctions list. Other individuals 684 00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:47,800 Speaker 1: are going to get removed from it in time. And 685 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:51,239 Speaker 1: there were all these inducements and all along Iran gets 686 00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:55,600 Speaker 1: to keep the essential infrastructure for its nuclear program, and 687 00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:58,840 Speaker 1: eventually the agreement just sort of isn't an agreement anymore. 688 00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:02,799 Speaker 1: Oh so that's great, So let's Iran develop much more 689 00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:06,920 Speaker 1: of its critical military infrastructure, become much wealthier, become entrenched 690 00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:10,839 Speaker 1: in the international financial system, find all kinds of ways 691 00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 1: to hide assets, to build up its coffers, to modernize 692 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:17,879 Speaker 1: its military. Let's give her on a decade of no 693 00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 1: worries of external strikes, keeping their military, I mean, keeping 694 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:24,200 Speaker 1: their nuclear program in place, while their military gets stronger, 695 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:27,319 Speaker 1: their government gets richer. And then at the end of that, 696 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:29,640 Speaker 1: we'll just come up with some other idea of what 697 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:30,960 Speaker 1: we're going to tell them. You see, no at the 698 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:32,160 Speaker 1: end of that, and then we have to say, hold 699 00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:35,160 Speaker 1: on a second. A bigger, wealthier iron with better weapon systems, 700 00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:38,080 Speaker 1: a better military could just decide, you know what, we're 701 00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:42,000 Speaker 1: going nuclear now, what are you going to do about it? 702 00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:47,400 Speaker 1: So here's the other problem. Rogue states that get nuclear weapons, 703 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:50,720 Speaker 1: then we're in the North Korea situation where it becomes 704 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:53,080 Speaker 1: very very different. You know, we're ever going to get 705 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:55,000 Speaker 1: her on to give up its nukes once they have them, 706 00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:57,799 Speaker 1: It's never going to happen. So all they have to 707 00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:00,560 Speaker 1: do is get to that place. And if they raised 708 00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:02,640 Speaker 1: the calculation, if they make it hard enough for us 709 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:05,080 Speaker 1: to be able to eradicate their nuclear program because their 710 00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:09,560 Speaker 1: military advances because they become a much stronger country. They 711 00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:12,640 Speaker 1: were greatly weakened when Obama came in. Their economy was 712 00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:15,799 Speaker 1: in free fall. Things are not good in Iran. There's 713 00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:18,160 Speaker 1: all kinds of tumult. They just had to execute in 714 00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:22,799 Speaker 1: the streets hundreds of protesters, right, so there is real 715 00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 1: instability in this country the young people. I mean, this 716 00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:30,600 Speaker 1: is often forgotten. There were such great losses from the 717 00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:32,560 Speaker 1: Iran Iraq and keep bringing this up, but it's important 718 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:34,040 Speaker 1: to understand where we are now with Iran. There were 719 00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:36,680 Speaker 1: such great losses from the Iran Iraq civil War that 720 00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:39,399 Speaker 1: the Molas decided that they needed to pay major state 721 00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:44,080 Speaker 1: subsidies so that Iranian women would have more children. And 722 00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:47,120 Speaker 1: so what you have is post the horrific war, I 723 00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:50,600 Speaker 1: mean over a million casualties killed wounded, is a horrific war. 724 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:55,200 Speaker 1: In the eighties in Iran, with Iran and Iraq, they 725 00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:58,759 Speaker 1: lost so many young people. They were actually using them 726 00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:01,560 Speaker 1: as cannon fodder, I mean, using them as landmine fodder. 727 00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:04,520 Speaker 1: They lost so many young people that they've moment said, okay, 728 00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:08,400 Speaker 1: we're going to start subsidizing children to be women to 729 00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:12,960 Speaker 1: have children, families to have children. And now you have 730 00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:16,359 Speaker 1: this this youth bulge, which is why we keep talking 731 00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:18,440 Speaker 1: about the young in Iran. You have this youth bulge 732 00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:21,359 Speaker 1: a lot of people in Iran, you know, demographically, there's this, 733 00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:23,839 Speaker 1: you know, there's the fat end of the wedge demographically 734 00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:25,680 Speaker 1: for the Iranians is you have all these young people 735 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:28,839 Speaker 1: in their twenties and their thirties and they're like, what 736 00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:33,319 Speaker 1: is this regime stinks? Your dam's terrible? What are we 737 00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:36,480 Speaker 1: doing here now? Can they say that openly? Of course not. 738 00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:41,560 Speaker 1: You know, the Iranian security and military apparatus is very 739 00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:47,760 Speaker 1: invested and has become unfortunately quite adept at suppressing those voices. 740 00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:51,400 Speaker 1: But they got a problem because eventually enough young people 741 00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:56,400 Speaker 1: have no real future, no economic mobility, no freedom. You 742 00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:59,560 Speaker 1: know what, exactly does a twenty year old Irani today 743 00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:02,399 Speaker 1: really have to look forward to under the current circumstance. 744 00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:07,960 Speaker 1: So we had there are these pieces in play that 745 00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:11,560 Speaker 1: would make it harder for the regime to continue doing 746 00:42:11,600 --> 00:42:13,399 Speaker 1: what it does. Now. Maybe the regime isn't topple, maybe 747 00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:15,960 Speaker 1: the regime just changes internally. Who knows what ends up happening. 748 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:19,760 Speaker 1: And we've been waiting for this now for over thirty years, 749 00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:25,520 Speaker 1: over forty years going on fifty years, but by throwing 750 00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:28,400 Speaker 1: them a lifeline. Because Obama and the Democrats and the 751 00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:31,919 Speaker 1: left in this country really still have a guilt complex 752 00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:36,440 Speaker 1: over Mosadek. They really feel like everything bad that's happened 753 00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:39,279 Speaker 1: in Iran is somehow really the fault of the United States. 754 00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:41,719 Speaker 1: You'll see some leftists who think this, it's the fault 755 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:43,440 Speaker 1: of the United States because we were involved in the 756 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:46,439 Speaker 1: coude to remove Mosadek, because we were still playing great 757 00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:48,920 Speaker 1: game politics with the Soviet Union and we did not 758 00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:54,920 Speaker 1: want Mosadek to be in charge in Iran. But they 759 00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:57,600 Speaker 1: never then explain how it is that when the Shaw, 760 00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:01,399 Speaker 1: who we helped keep in or who was a bad guy, 761 00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:04,520 Speaker 1: although of course the Moullas are much worse guys, the 762 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:10,560 Speaker 1: Mola is effectively hijacked, hijack the revolution against the Shaw 763 00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:12,960 Speaker 1: for their own purposes. And this so often happens in 764 00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:17,440 Speaker 1: countries where a regime is ousted with force. Right that 765 00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:19,759 Speaker 1: there's a legitimate grievance, of course, because that's how you 766 00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:25,000 Speaker 1: have popular mobilization against a government for government's doing really well. 767 00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:26,440 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, there's a reason why I'm not 768 00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:29,680 Speaker 1: seeing popular mobilization against the Swiss or against Singapore against 769 00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:31,680 Speaker 1: Norway or something people like, Yeah, things are pretty good. 770 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:39,480 Speaker 1: A government has to be inept, decrepid, ineffectual, oppressive, but 771 00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:41,040 Speaker 1: that doesn't mean that the people that end up in 772 00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:44,879 Speaker 1: power once that government is gone are in any way 773 00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:47,239 Speaker 1: really an improvement. And that's what you have in Iran. 774 00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:50,880 Speaker 1: So it is in effect the fault of the Iranian 775 00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:53,320 Speaker 1: it is, you know, Iran is an Iran problem ultimately, 776 00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:56,080 Speaker 1: and again we're going to some pretty basic as some 777 00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:59,160 Speaker 1: truisms here, some things that are self evident, but sometimes 778 00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:02,480 Speaker 1: self evident truth need to be repeated. It is the 779 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:06,640 Speaker 1: Iranian people who have or it is Iranians who hijack 780 00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:09,640 Speaker 1: the Iranian revolution against the Shah and have made this 781 00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:13,680 Speaker 1: country into a place that is an abysmal failure in 782 00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:18,960 Speaker 1: so many ways as a state. After you know, millennia 783 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:26,600 Speaker 1: of withstanding cultural onslaught dealing with I mean, you go 784 00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:28,960 Speaker 1: back through through Persian history and the fact that Persians 785 00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:33,760 Speaker 1: even just maintain their language and this cultural distinctiveness from 786 00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:40,000 Speaker 1: the huge surge of what was effectively Arab Muslim expansionism'm 787 00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:42,000 Speaker 1: starting in the seventh century with the Propah Muhammad and 788 00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:43,920 Speaker 1: then going all the way the fact that the Persians 789 00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:46,440 Speaker 1: were able to maintain this Persian identity, and that Persia 790 00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:50,000 Speaker 1: as a polity, as a as some form of state, 791 00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:53,720 Speaker 1: has existed for so long, in fact, that predates Islam. 792 00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:57,319 Speaker 1: Right there's and dealt with a Mongol invasion. Some really 793 00:44:57,360 --> 00:45:00,600 Speaker 1: crazy stuff happened back then. They have main attained this, 794 00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:05,279 Speaker 1: and yet they continue on. Thanks for listening to the 795 00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:09,480 Speaker 1: Bus Sesson Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcast, 796 00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:12,879 Speaker 1: the iHeart Radio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. 797 00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:16,439 Speaker 1: We will defend American in the strikes we took over 798 00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:20,319 Speaker 1: this past week, including killing the terrorist Solomoni. We will 799 00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:23,239 Speaker 1: continue to take if we need to. The American people 800 00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 1: should know we will always defend them, and we'll do 801 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:27,600 Speaker 1: so in a way that is consistent with the international 802 00:45:27,680 --> 00:45:30,520 Speaker 1: rule of law. You can always tell who you should 803 00:45:30,520 --> 00:45:33,839 Speaker 1: like in this administration based on how much Democrats hate 804 00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:38,560 Speaker 1: that person. Very important. It's an ironclad rule at this point. 805 00:45:38,719 --> 00:45:42,480 Speaker 1: The more they despise a member of Trump's cabinet, inner 806 00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:46,400 Speaker 1: circle and advise or anybody, the more effective that person 807 00:45:46,520 --> 00:45:48,319 Speaker 1: is and the more a threat that person is to 808 00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:50,200 Speaker 1: the progressive left wing agenda. And so that's why I 809 00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:52,759 Speaker 1: can tell you that Pompeo is good at what he 810 00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:55,880 Speaker 1: does and is a good choice, has been a good 811 00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:59,279 Speaker 1: choice for the administration because man who lives hate him 812 00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:01,759 Speaker 1: almost as much as they hate Bill Barr, who is 813 00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:06,799 Speaker 1: probably the single biggest threat to left wing attempts to 814 00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:10,080 Speaker 1: ouse this president using the weaponization of the bureaucracy and 815 00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:15,960 Speaker 1: the abuse of congressional power and the dj and all 816 00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:19,480 Speaker 1: the rest of it. Russia, Russia, all that stuff. But 817 00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:23,480 Speaker 1: the strike that was taken here has obviously set up 818 00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:27,560 Speaker 1: a situation where we could see a major retaliation. I 819 00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:30,480 Speaker 1: don't know what exactly is going to happen, as I've 820 00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:33,520 Speaker 1: been telling you, I do know that there are hundreds 821 00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:35,400 Speaker 1: of thousands of protesters that are going on the streets 822 00:46:35,440 --> 00:46:37,959 Speaker 1: in Iran, and from that we are supposed to take 823 00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:45,800 Speaker 1: take the Democrats word that this is representative of the 824 00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:48,120 Speaker 1: broad opinion of the Iranian people, which I don't think 825 00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:50,960 Speaker 1: is true. And we're also supposed to believe that this 826 00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:57,160 Speaker 1: is somehow a marked departure from what existed before. Oh 827 00:46:57,200 --> 00:46:59,480 Speaker 1: and also you have to I didn't get to this before. 828 00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:01,960 Speaker 1: They say that Trump is lying. That is of course 829 00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:03,920 Speaker 1: a part of this, that there was no imminent attack 830 00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:06,960 Speaker 1: of this is all all a fraud. Here here is 831 00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:11,720 Speaker 1: the President just speaking his mind on what exactly pushed 832 00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:16,000 Speaker 1: him to take this very decisive action. Clay Clip forty two. Please, 833 00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:22,560 Speaker 1: Salomany was plotting imminent and sinister attacks on American diplomats 834 00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:26,560 Speaker 1: and military personnel, but we caught him in the act 835 00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:34,680 Speaker 1: and terminated him. Under my leadership, America's policy is unambiguous. 836 00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:39,880 Speaker 1: To terrorists who harm or intend to harm any Americans, 837 00:47:40,239 --> 00:47:43,359 Speaker 1: we will find you, we will eliminate you. We will 838 00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:48,960 Speaker 1: always protect our diplomats, service members, all Americans and our allies. 839 00:47:50,320 --> 00:47:55,200 Speaker 1: For years, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and it's ruthless 840 00:47:55,760 --> 00:48:00,960 Speaker 1: kud's force under Solomoni's leadership, has targeted, injured, and murdered 841 00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:05,759 Speaker 1: hundreds of American civilians and servicemen. The recent attacks on 842 00:48:05,960 --> 00:48:10,160 Speaker 1: US targets in Iraq, including rocket strikes that killed an 843 00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:15,160 Speaker 1: American and injured for American servicemen very badly, as well 844 00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:19,319 Speaker 1: as a violence assault on our embassy in Baghdad, were 845 00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:25,440 Speaker 1: carried out at the direction of Solomny. Solomny made the 846 00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:30,560 Speaker 1: death of innocent people his sick passion, and yet the 847 00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:35,440 Speaker 1: Democrats seem to mourn his passing. They will say, we 848 00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:37,680 Speaker 1: don't mourn his passing. But then they'll say, this is 849 00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:40,120 Speaker 1: a terrible decision. We're now close to war. Trump never 850 00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:43,160 Speaker 1: should have done this. And some of the media referred 851 00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:47,520 Speaker 1: to him was what was it, the most revered military 852 00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:50,359 Speaker 1: figure in Iran. That was how they referred to him. 853 00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:57,600 Speaker 1: Oh wow. And then you have, of course, the conspiracy 854 00:48:57,640 --> 00:49:03,799 Speaker 1: theories wagged the dog. Perhaps they say, here is Elizabeth 855 00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:08,560 Speaker 1: Warren trying to pull this all together in one perfect 856 00:49:08,560 --> 00:49:13,120 Speaker 1: little package for insane Trump deranged Democrats play thirty eight. 857 00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:17,480 Speaker 1: The question is why now? Why not a month ago? 858 00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:21,280 Speaker 1: Why not a month from now? And the administration simply 859 00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:25,080 Speaker 1: can't keep its story straight. It points in all different directions. 860 00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:28,800 Speaker 1: The last time we saw this was this past summer 861 00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:33,879 Speaker 1: over Ukraine, when people started asking questions about what had 862 00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:36,200 Speaker 1: happened on the phone call between Donald Trump and the 863 00:49:36,239 --> 00:49:40,400 Speaker 1: President of Ukraine and why a to Ukraine had been stopped. 864 00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:43,160 Speaker 1: The administration did the same thing. They pointed all different 865 00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:45,279 Speaker 1: directions and give a whole lot of different answers. And 866 00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:47,839 Speaker 1: of course what it turned out to be is that 867 00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:51,000 Speaker 1: Donald Trump was doing what Donald Trump does, and that 868 00:49:51,160 --> 00:49:57,279 Speaker 1: is he was advancing his own personal political interests. And 869 00:49:57,600 --> 00:50:04,359 Speaker 1: I think the questioning reasonably question people reasonably ask is 870 00:50:04,719 --> 00:50:08,560 Speaker 1: next week Donald Trump faces the shark potentially of an 871 00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:17,719 Speaker 1: impeachment trial, and all why Now, that's Elizabeth Warren in 872 00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:26,320 Speaker 1: the most slimy, dishonest, passive, aggressive way possible, saying that 873 00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:30,640 Speaker 1: Trump killed Custom Solimani because of the impeachment trial. Yeah, 874 00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:33,239 Speaker 1: the impeachment that, by the way, makes Democrats unless you're 875 00:50:33,320 --> 00:50:36,400 Speaker 1: unless you're somebody who's just delusional. This whole impeachment thing 876 00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:40,000 Speaker 1: is ridiculous. Nancy Pelosi saying there's urgency. Now they're saying, 877 00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:41,719 Speaker 1: whoa wha, we don't get the witnesses we want. We're 878 00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:44,000 Speaker 1: not even going to hand over the articles of impeachment. 879 00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:45,840 Speaker 1: I'm also seeing that they might add a third article 880 00:50:46,239 --> 00:50:50,200 Speaker 1: of impeachment, probably killing Cosum Solimani. Well, first, first, the 881 00:50:50,239 --> 00:50:55,160 Speaker 1: Democrats are waiting for the Ninth Circuit of Appeals to 882 00:50:55,360 --> 00:51:00,879 Speaker 1: rule the Kossum Solimani strike unconstitutional, I'm sure. And then 883 00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:05,680 Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi, Nancy Pelosi, will you know, add add on 884 00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:09,560 Speaker 1: to this right then she'll make it another article of impeachment. 885 00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:12,960 Speaker 1: They'll stack what they already have with the third article impeachment, 886 00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:18,120 Speaker 1: and he killed Kasum Solamani, a revered military leader and 887 00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:23,279 Speaker 1: austere religious scholar. According to Libs, we could see something 888 00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:25,200 Speaker 1: like that happened. In fact, Nancy Pelosi is as if 889 00:51:25,239 --> 00:51:32,360 Speaker 1: we haven't seen enough just ridiculous politics from the Democrats. Recently, 890 00:51:32,400 --> 00:51:38,320 Speaker 1: Pelosi has announced that she and the Democrats are going 891 00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:43,279 Speaker 1: to pass a war Powers Resolute or have I should say, 892 00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:48,760 Speaker 1: a Warpowers resolution vote because the Democrats who march in lockstep. 893 00:51:48,760 --> 00:51:51,439 Speaker 1: You gotta give Democrats credit. They're like the borg from 894 00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:53,799 Speaker 1: Star Trek. I mean, they're just like a machine that 895 00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:57,600 Speaker 1: is always unified and in lockstep on these issues. We 896 00:51:57,680 --> 00:51:59,759 Speaker 1: have all these fights. You know, in the Republican sign 897 00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:01,680 Speaker 1: people that are, oh, I know, but this I know 898 00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:05,160 Speaker 1: about that? Democrats, it's oh, is that? What is that? What? 899 00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:08,120 Speaker 1: The status the socialist, the progressives, the wokeness is that 900 00:52:08,120 --> 00:52:13,680 Speaker 1: what they want? Boom, everybody does it, Obamacare, everybody on 901 00:52:13,760 --> 00:52:17,600 Speaker 1: board for it, getting rid of Trump or you know, 902 00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:20,560 Speaker 1: impeaching him, which they know won't really get rid of him. 903 00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:22,799 Speaker 1: But almost all of them were I think what there 904 00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:26,680 Speaker 1: was one Tulsie Gavard was a voted presence. Right. Then 905 00:52:26,680 --> 00:52:29,400 Speaker 1: there's that one Democrat who switch sides, but people have 906 00:52:29,400 --> 00:52:31,359 Speaker 1: already kind of mean. Look, I forgot the guy's name. 907 00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:34,520 Speaker 1: People have already forgotten his name. Maybe he'll do more stuff. 908 00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:37,319 Speaker 1: Point here being that the Warpowers resolution is this is 909 00:52:37,360 --> 00:52:40,040 Speaker 1: just a this is for show, this is theater. No 910 00:52:40,120 --> 00:52:44,600 Speaker 1: serious person thinks otherwise, Oh yeah, we're Pelos. The Democrats 911 00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:47,680 Speaker 1: so worried about the Warpowers Act and the thirty days 912 00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:51,200 Speaker 1: of military action for a president before having to actually 913 00:52:51,239 --> 00:52:53,959 Speaker 1: cease it unless Congress continues it. Were they worried about 914 00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:58,000 Speaker 1: that during oh, I don't know, Libya. Were they worried 915 00:52:58,040 --> 00:53:04,120 Speaker 1: about that during the Clinton administration and in the Balkans? 916 00:53:05,040 --> 00:53:08,520 Speaker 1: I just want to know where does the principle begin 917 00:53:08,719 --> 00:53:10,440 Speaker 1: and the politics and the Democrats we all know the 918 00:53:10,480 --> 00:53:14,680 Speaker 1: answer is that there is no place where principle exceeds politics. 919 00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:17,000 Speaker 1: Politics always dictates everything that they care about, everything that 920 00:53:17,040 --> 00:53:22,680 Speaker 1: they do. This is simply utterly absurd, It is dishonest. 921 00:53:24,200 --> 00:53:28,279 Speaker 1: I do think that the Secretary of State Pompey would 922 00:53:28,320 --> 00:53:29,719 Speaker 1: bring it back to him for a moment. Here is 923 00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:32,520 Speaker 1: correct when he says, play a clip twenty four if 924 00:53:32,560 --> 00:53:36,080 Speaker 1: you're an American in the region days and weeks. This 925 00:53:36,160 --> 00:53:38,600 Speaker 1: is not something that's relevant. We have to prepare, we 926 00:53:38,680 --> 00:53:40,520 Speaker 1: have to be ready, and we took a bad guy 927 00:53:40,520 --> 00:53:43,320 Speaker 1: off the battlefield. We made the right decision. There is 928 00:53:43,320 --> 00:53:45,960 Speaker 1: a less risk today to American forces in the region 929 00:53:45,960 --> 00:53:47,800 Speaker 1: as a result of that tech. I'm proud of the 930 00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:51,200 Speaker 1: effort the President Trump undertook and the execution while our 931 00:53:51,239 --> 00:53:53,480 Speaker 1: military was phenomenal, and the work that's been done by 932 00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:56,439 Speaker 1: our diplomats in the region to prepare and to work 933 00:53:56,440 --> 00:54:00,560 Speaker 1: diplomatically in the region has been powerful, important and effective. Indeed, 934 00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:05,600 Speaker 1: Democrats say all of that is essentially a lie, that 935 00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:09,080 Speaker 1: it's not We're not better off, We're not safer. We'll 936 00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:12,120 Speaker 1: see in the days and weeks ahead. Thanks for listening 937 00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:15,560 Speaker 1: to The Bus Sesson Show podcasts.

Well, here's a headline that will certainly excite 940 00:54:24,760 --> 00:54:27,000 Speaker 1: many many of those on the left who are hoping 941 00:54:27,040 --> 00:54:33,080 Speaker 1: that President Trump crashes on the rocks of this impeachment fiasco. 942 00:54:34,640 --> 00:54:39,360 Speaker 1: Former National Security Advisor Bolton is willing to testify in 943 00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:43,000 Speaker 1: the Senate impeachment trial if he has subpoenaed reference. Wondering 944 00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:45,120 Speaker 1: who always Bolton going to be the one who Finally, 945 00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:50,279 Speaker 1: Here's where I have to say, We've been so consistent 946 00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:55,319 Speaker 1: here for a long time on this. I don't care 947 00:54:55,360 --> 00:54:58,560 Speaker 1: if the President did have a quid pro quo for 948 00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:01,759 Speaker 1: the aid to Ukraine. I don't. I don't see this 949 00:55:01,800 --> 00:55:03,680 Speaker 1: as the problem that so many other people see it as. 950 00:55:04,400 --> 00:55:06,560 Speaker 1: I think the President had a legitimate interest in corruption. 951 00:55:06,600 --> 00:55:08,640 Speaker 1: I think the Bidens are a legitimate target of inquiry. 952 00:55:09,440 --> 00:55:11,480 Speaker 1: And you know it's interesting is that the Democrats will 953 00:55:11,520 --> 00:55:13,080 Speaker 1: just aside some people are off limits, like all of 954 00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:16,320 Speaker 1: a sudden, Kosam Solomoni is off limits for a military strike, 955 00:55:16,840 --> 00:55:20,799 Speaker 1: for investigations, the Bidens are off limits just based on 956 00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:22,960 Speaker 1: what they want. I mean, what's really the principle here, 957 00:55:23,880 --> 00:55:28,560 Speaker 1: what's the separating you know, that the definitional difference between 958 00:55:28,680 --> 00:55:32,640 Speaker 1: why somebody should be subject to investigation or to military 959 00:55:32,680 --> 00:55:36,520 Speaker 1: strike in the case of Kasum Solomany versus somebody who 960 00:55:36,560 --> 00:55:39,960 Speaker 1: isn't just the whims of the Democratic Party. It seems 961 00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:42,000 Speaker 1: that is the single most important thing that we're all 962 00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:48,640 Speaker 1: supposed to believe determines everything everything else. So we might 963 00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:51,279 Speaker 1: have boltin test, fine, but we also don't know if 964 00:55:51,320 --> 00:55:52,640 Speaker 1: there's ever going to I still have that bat with 965 00:55:52,640 --> 00:55:56,120 Speaker 1: my man, Jesse Kelly, my buddy. I got to see if, 966 00:55:56,400 --> 00:55:59,879 Speaker 1: in fact I'm right that Nancy Pelosi does transmit Remember 967 00:55:59,880 --> 00:56:02,680 Speaker 1: I said that she would. She has to transmit them 968 00:56:02,719 --> 00:56:07,080 Speaker 1: at some point otherwise it's just becomes too ridiculous. Now 969 00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:10,520 Speaker 1: we're saying they're trying to maneuver after doing it. You know, 970 00:56:10,520 --> 00:56:14,200 Speaker 1: they wanted the impeachment done, and now they're maneuvering to 971 00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:18,880 Speaker 1: bolster the case around impeachment. Now they're maneuvering so that 972 00:56:18,920 --> 00:56:21,879 Speaker 1: they can try to come up with some rationale, some 973 00:56:21,960 --> 00:56:24,920 Speaker 1: explanation beyond what they've already offered for why the President 974 00:56:24,960 --> 00:56:30,919 Speaker 1: of the United States should be removed from office. But 975 00:56:31,960 --> 00:56:35,279 Speaker 1: they know that it's weak. They have to know at 976 00:56:35,320 --> 00:56:38,080 Speaker 1: this point because it's in their interest to know that 977 00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:44,200 Speaker 1: this is absurd. This is bizarre in fact, that Democrats 978 00:56:44,239 --> 00:56:47,319 Speaker 1: have presented this to the American people thinking if they 979 00:56:47,360 --> 00:56:49,520 Speaker 1: do think that it's going to make anyone safer, I mean, sorry, 980 00:56:49,520 --> 00:56:51,520 Speaker 1: it's going to make anyone change in their mind. It 981 00:56:51,600 --> 00:56:54,560 Speaker 1: will not. I saw a clip that had to do 982 00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:56,960 Speaker 1: with gun safety, and all of a sudden got jumbled 983 00:56:56,960 --> 00:57:04,200 Speaker 1: in my brain for a second now shift, shifty, shift. 984 00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:07,400 Speaker 1: We have not heard the last of him when it 985 00:57:07,480 --> 00:57:11,920 Speaker 1: comes to this impeachment fiasco. Now, Democrats still believe it. 986 00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:15,280 Speaker 1: They're in a position to dictate the way the Senate 987 00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:19,800 Speaker 1: is going to conduct the Senate trial. Now, So Democrats, 988 00:57:19,840 --> 00:57:21,880 Speaker 1: when they're in the majority, it's their way or the highway. 989 00:57:22,240 --> 00:57:25,000 Speaker 1: When Democrats are in the minority, it's oh no, but 990 00:57:25,040 --> 00:57:27,560 Speaker 1: you have to do what we want because a bunch 991 00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:30,480 Speaker 1: of stuff we say. But wait a second, I thought 992 00:57:30,480 --> 00:57:33,360 Speaker 1: we'd already no, no no, no, because a bunch of things 993 00:57:33,440 --> 00:57:38,920 Speaker 1: that we've said, Oh okay, here's Adam shift. And by 994 00:57:38,960 --> 00:57:41,520 Speaker 1: the way, they also like to talk about how the 995 00:57:41,600 --> 00:57:46,920 Speaker 1: election can't have any there's no election integrity going forward. 996 00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:49,760 Speaker 1: If Trump wins. They're setting the groundwork for this right now. 997 00:57:49,840 --> 00:57:52,440 Speaker 1: Make no mistake about it. Trump, I do believe is going. 998 00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:55,440 Speaker 1: I'm gonna stop saying Trump's Look, here's my prediction. Brusen 999 00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:57,720 Speaker 1: Margaret Market. Trump's gonna get re elected. Okay. I have 1000 00:57:57,720 --> 00:58:00,000 Speaker 1: confidence he's gonna get it done. We got four more years. Okay, 1001 00:58:00,040 --> 00:58:01,640 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say anymore because you know what, I 1002 00:58:01,680 --> 00:58:03,720 Speaker 1: don't want us to be overconfident. I don't want people 1003 00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:05,800 Speaker 1: to stay home. I don't want people to think that 1004 00:58:05,840 --> 00:58:07,840 Speaker 1: they don't have a voice that matters in this process 1005 00:58:07,840 --> 00:58:12,080 Speaker 1: because Trump's got it. No. In fact, I'm worried that 1006 00:58:12,080 --> 00:58:15,000 Speaker 1: that will lead to Trump losing. So I'm not no 1007 00:58:15,080 --> 00:58:17,480 Speaker 1: more no more. I think Trump's gonna win. But now 1008 00:58:17,480 --> 00:58:20,840 Speaker 1: we're all in. You gotta win it. We can celebrate 1009 00:58:20,880 --> 00:58:24,120 Speaker 1: the victory as long as you want. After right, we 1010 00:58:24,120 --> 00:58:26,480 Speaker 1: can celebrate the four more years for forty years after it. 1011 00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:29,080 Speaker 1: I mean, looking out, we still talking about Reagan. But 1012 00:58:29,160 --> 00:58:31,880 Speaker 1: we got to get there first. And I do have 1013 00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:35,320 Speaker 1: my concerns that, look at Trump. If the wall isn't built, 1014 00:58:36,880 --> 00:58:41,320 Speaker 1: you know, people might get a little complacence. Democrats were 1015 00:58:41,600 --> 00:58:45,280 Speaker 1: caught napping in twenty sixteen, no question, and that's why 1016 00:58:45,280 --> 00:58:47,400 Speaker 1: they were such a outrage, such an outrage and a 1017 00:58:47,480 --> 00:58:49,800 Speaker 1: freak out about this. It's also why you know, all 1018 00:58:49,800 --> 00:58:52,200 Speaker 1: this Russia stuff that they concocted. Yeah, they knew some 1019 00:58:52,240 --> 00:58:54,280 Speaker 1: of them beforehand, a little you know, the Internet stuff 1020 00:58:54,320 --> 00:58:56,680 Speaker 1: that was going on. They didn't freak out about it, though. 1021 00:58:56,680 --> 00:58:59,160 Speaker 1: Why didn't they freak out because Russian interference wasn't such 1022 00:58:59,200 --> 00:59:00,720 Speaker 1: a big well, it wasn't such a big deal in 1023 00:59:00,720 --> 00:59:02,840 Speaker 1: the sense that it didn't change anything. But well, because 1024 00:59:02,840 --> 00:59:04,959 Speaker 1: I assumed Hillary was gonna win, so it didn't really matter. 1025 00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:08,160 Speaker 1: Russian interference would not have mattered. Keep this in mind, 1026 00:59:08,440 --> 00:59:10,840 Speaker 1: Democrats would not have cared about Russian interference in the election. 1027 00:59:10,880 --> 00:59:13,960 Speaker 1: Off Hillary Clinton had won, it wouldn't have mattered, Okay, 1028 00:59:14,040 --> 00:59:16,280 Speaker 1: because that's the right outcome. How can you be upset 1029 00:59:16,320 --> 00:59:18,280 Speaker 1: about the right outcome? Right? If you have a binary 1030 00:59:18,320 --> 00:59:21,640 Speaker 1: event one of two things, one is good, one is bad. 1031 00:59:22,280 --> 00:59:23,960 Speaker 1: You know if I told if I told you, you 1032 00:59:23,960 --> 00:59:27,480 Speaker 1: know you have a terminal disease, and you know I 1033 00:59:28,840 --> 00:59:31,520 Speaker 1: gave you the antidote to save you. But turns out 1034 00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:33,760 Speaker 1: that I stole that antidote, but you're still saved. Do 1035 00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:36,360 Speaker 1: you care? No, If you do not, You're just happy 1036 00:59:36,440 --> 00:59:39,560 Speaker 1: that you're saved. That's the way the Democrats viewed the 1037 00:59:40,880 --> 00:59:43,160 Speaker 1: Russian interference. The election didn't matter because Hillary was gonna win. 1038 00:59:43,200 --> 00:59:48,280 Speaker 1: Ohop snope, turns out Hillary didn't win. They still think 1039 00:59:48,320 --> 00:59:52,880 Speaker 1: she did, but she did not win. And then you 1040 00:59:52,960 --> 00:59:55,880 Speaker 1: have you have Shift running around being as just disingenuous 1041 00:59:55,920 --> 00:59:58,080 Speaker 1: and dishonest as he ever has. I mean, Shift is 1042 00:59:58,760 --> 01:00:00,840 Speaker 1: Shift is an abject to grace. I mean he is 1043 01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:02,840 Speaker 1: the worst of the worst as far as I'm concerned 1044 01:00:03,480 --> 01:00:07,040 Speaker 1: when it comes to any Democrat on I mean, I 1045 01:00:07,120 --> 01:00:08,880 Speaker 1: know he's a leading Democrat in this impeachment thing, but 1046 01:00:08,920 --> 01:00:10,760 Speaker 1: the guy will say anything and his whole like, oh, 1047 01:00:10,800 --> 01:00:12,360 Speaker 1: I'm just so upset about this, and oh, I don't 1048 01:00:12,360 --> 01:00:15,320 Speaker 1: want to do this. Nancy Pelosi's prayerful except when she's 1049 01:00:15,320 --> 01:00:17,400 Speaker 1: waving her hand to people like this, app don't do that, 1050 01:00:18,080 --> 01:00:21,720 Speaker 1: don't cheer. Kind a fool the remaining five morons in 1051 01:00:21,720 --> 01:00:24,200 Speaker 1: this country who don't realize that this is all a 1052 01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:26,480 Speaker 1: sham that Democrats are running against the president because the 1053 01:00:26,480 --> 01:00:29,560 Speaker 1: president has been so effective. There's a part of me 1054 01:00:29,640 --> 01:00:32,360 Speaker 1: that feels a little bit of I mean, I'm not 1055 01:00:32,400 --> 01:00:34,760 Speaker 1: gonna say sympathy, but I kind of get where some 1056 01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:37,000 Speaker 1: of the Democrats are coming from on this stuff, because 1057 01:00:37,280 --> 01:00:40,440 Speaker 1: what they're gonna say, we hate all this economic prosperity, 1058 01:00:40,480 --> 01:00:45,600 Speaker 1: relative peace and effective governance. We hate all the deregulation, 1059 01:00:46,200 --> 01:00:50,240 Speaker 1: the rising wages, the low unemployment, the booming stock market, 1060 01:00:50,600 --> 01:00:54,880 Speaker 1: the no new wars, we hate it. Securing the border, 1061 01:00:54,920 --> 01:00:57,480 Speaker 1: we hate it. Well, the Democrats do hate that, But 1062 01:00:57,760 --> 01:01:01,440 Speaker 1: the other stuff they're supposed to at least pretend, pretend 1063 01:01:01,480 --> 01:01:05,600 Speaker 1: that they don't hate. Although economic misery, as you know, 1064 01:01:05,760 --> 01:01:09,800 Speaker 1: is the most fertile ground for socialists. So economic misery 1065 01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:12,680 Speaker 1: if it were to continue, or rather misery if it 1066 01:01:12,720 --> 01:01:15,280 Speaker 1: were to arise all of a sudden in this country, 1067 01:01:15,320 --> 01:01:16,800 Speaker 1: if we were to have people that were really out 1068 01:01:16,840 --> 01:01:20,160 Speaker 1: of work, big unemployment search, then Democrats would have some 1069 01:01:20,240 --> 01:01:22,200 Speaker 1: kind of a case to make about how they should 1070 01:01:22,200 --> 01:01:23,760 Speaker 1: be in power. And that would also then allow the 1071 01:01:23,800 --> 01:01:27,080 Speaker 1: socialists within the Democrat ranks, although I think increasingly it's 1072 01:01:27,080 --> 01:01:29,680 Speaker 1: hard to tell the difference between a Democrat and a socialist, 1073 01:01:29,720 --> 01:01:32,480 Speaker 1: if there is any difference at all, it's just a 1074 01:01:32,560 --> 01:01:36,560 Speaker 1: question of degree maybe. But they don't have a case 1075 01:01:36,640 --> 01:01:39,000 Speaker 1: to make on the merits. So that's why they've relied 1076 01:01:39,000 --> 01:01:44,440 Speaker 1: on all this other stuff, the process weaponized against the president, 1077 01:01:44,480 --> 01:01:48,080 Speaker 1: the bureaucracy used as a check on the president of 1078 01:01:48,160 --> 01:01:55,320 Speaker 1: the United States. And that's also why Adam Schiff has 1079 01:01:55,320 --> 01:01:57,200 Speaker 1: been given all of us leeway by Democrats to run 1080 01:01:57,240 --> 01:02:02,160 Speaker 1: around just saying all kinds of absurd and stuff. I 1081 01:02:02,240 --> 01:02:05,240 Speaker 1: mentioned that he's not willing to let the election play 1082 01:02:05,280 --> 01:02:08,320 Speaker 1: out without first undermining election. For Mark, please play clip 1083 01:02:08,400 --> 01:02:12,160 Speaker 1: fifteen if you would, But what the House Council is 1084 01:02:12,160 --> 01:02:15,080 Speaker 1: saying is we have been trying to get testimony from 1085 01:02:15,080 --> 01:02:17,280 Speaker 1: people like Don McGann. We've been trying to get the 1086 01:02:17,320 --> 01:02:20,880 Speaker 1: grand jury material as part of the appeachment inquiry. And 1087 01:02:21,080 --> 01:02:23,680 Speaker 1: for those Senators who say, well, why didn't the House 1088 01:02:23,720 --> 01:02:27,360 Speaker 1: wait on the Ukraine articles until you exhausted the court remedies, 1089 01:02:27,720 --> 01:02:31,760 Speaker 1: the reason is because on those articles the president was 1090 01:02:31,800 --> 01:02:34,880 Speaker 1: trying to seek foreign help in the election. Is not 1091 01:02:34,920 --> 01:02:37,760 Speaker 1: sufficient to say let's wait another year or two years 1092 01:02:37,760 --> 01:02:40,720 Speaker 1: to get these witnesses in if the president is trying 1093 01:02:40,760 --> 01:02:43,360 Speaker 1: to cheat in the next election, So we move forward 1094 01:02:43,400 --> 01:02:46,320 Speaker 1: with those articles that had the greatest sense of urgency. 1095 01:02:46,640 --> 01:02:50,360 Speaker 1: We continue to press the case with McGann, with gran 1096 01:02:50,400 --> 01:02:54,360 Speaker 1: jury material, with those that weren't as urgent. And I 1097 01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:58,040 Speaker 1: think that makes all the sense in the world. That's 1098 01:02:58,080 --> 01:03:03,720 Speaker 1: a stunning, wildly dishonest charge from chef presidents trying to 1099 01:03:03,800 --> 01:03:07,600 Speaker 1: cheat in the next election. That's what he's That's what 1100 01:03:07,640 --> 01:03:11,080 Speaker 1: he's saying here. I mean, you heard him cheat. How 1101 01:03:11,320 --> 01:03:14,840 Speaker 1: exactly what was the cheating? Get me an answer about 1102 01:03:14,840 --> 01:03:16,439 Speaker 1: a thing if you can, if you have the time. 1103 01:03:16,440 --> 01:03:19,240 Speaker 1: At some point, thanks, Oh, no answer was given, nothing 1104 01:03:19,320 --> 01:03:24,160 Speaker 1: was done that's cheating an election. This is absurd. But 1105 01:03:24,280 --> 01:03:28,280 Speaker 1: they know Chief knows that the case was weak. This 1106 01:03:28,440 --> 01:03:30,760 Speaker 1: is a repeat, isn't it? These people? You know, what 1107 01:03:30,880 --> 01:03:34,640 Speaker 1: is the Yogi bearrah deja vu all over again? Right? 1108 01:03:35,440 --> 01:03:40,200 Speaker 1: Who Yogi Yogi bearra? Was?

By the way, why because 1162 01:06:11,840 --> 01:06:14,320 Speaker 1: I used to relay Nintendo hockey game back and like 1163 01:06:14,360 --> 01:06:16,240 Speaker 1: the Ladies when there were like only a few teams. 1164 01:06:16,640 --> 01:06:18,360 Speaker 1: Remember that. I'm trying to remember the team that was 1165 01:06:18,440 --> 01:06:20,720 Speaker 1: right after expansion.

I've never even 1175 01:06:46,840 --> 01:06:48,480 Speaker 1: heard of that. Wow. Yeah, I thought that was like 1176 01:06:48,520 --> 01:06:51,480 Speaker 1: a Triple A baseball team. Wait, anyway, learning learning new 1177 01:06:51,520 --> 01:06:53,360 Speaker 1: things that we go. I'm just telling you all, PBR 1178 01:06:54,120 --> 01:06:56,280 Speaker 1: is really fun. I had a great time. Family was there. 1179 01:06:57,120 --> 01:06:59,600 Speaker 1: You get to see the bulls, and you know, you 1180 01:06:59,640 --> 01:07:01,160 Speaker 1: also you kind of like if you want to get 1181 01:07:01,200 --> 01:07:02,320 Speaker 1: up and go get a drink, it's one of these 1182 01:07:02,320 --> 01:07:03,919 Speaker 1: things too. Were like, you're not missing that much because 1183 01:07:03,960 --> 01:07:05,520 Speaker 1: like there'll be another bull ride in a a minute, you know, 1184 01:07:05,560 --> 01:07:07,920 Speaker 1: so it's not like you've missed a big touchdown or something. 1185 01:07:08,000 --> 01:07:09,800 Speaker 1: How long does that take? Like? How long is a 1186 01:07:09,880 --> 01:07:14,160 Speaker 1: whole event? It's like it's like a two hour, hour 1187 01:07:14,280 --> 01:07:16,120 Speaker 1: forty five it's not in the long it's not long. 1188 01:07:16,160 --> 01:07:17,800 Speaker 1: It's not like a football game. When you arrived for 1189 01:07:17,800 --> 01:07:19,760 Speaker 1: the tailgating, you're there all day, you know, it's like 1190 01:07:19,800 --> 01:07:21,360 Speaker 1: it's like an hour and forty five whatever. It's like 1191 01:07:21,400 --> 01:07:24,240 Speaker 1: a quick entertainment. A question for you, though, this is 1192 01:07:24,280 --> 01:07:26,280 Speaker 1: one that I talked to my family members about. Um, 1193 01:07:27,000 --> 01:07:30,360 Speaker 1: how much would I have to pay you without any training? 1194 01:07:31,040 --> 01:07:33,040 Speaker 1: But you got it and you gotta get on the 1195 01:07:33,080 --> 01:07:35,920 Speaker 1: bull and you have to try your very best to 1196 01:07:35,920 --> 01:07:37,880 Speaker 1: stay on for eight seconds. That's gonna be on for 1197 01:07:37,920 --> 01:07:40,880 Speaker 1: eight seconds to score? How long would I How much 1198 01:07:40,880 --> 01:07:43,440 Speaker 1: would I have to pay you to get you to 1199 01:07:43,560 --> 01:07:45,600 Speaker 1: get on that bull? Did you ask your family about 1200 01:07:45,640 --> 01:07:49,200 Speaker 1: me specific No, I have them about themselves. One of 1201 01:07:49,240 --> 01:07:52,880 Speaker 1: their individual price point for this it had it would 1202 01:07:52,880 --> 01:07:54,920 Speaker 1: have to be in the six figures. Oh yeah, that's 1203 01:07:55,040 --> 01:07:58,560 Speaker 1: oh yeah, because you're risking correct terrible injury exactly. That's 1204 01:07:58,560 --> 01:08:00,960 Speaker 1: what I'm not to pay my medical bills plus something. 1205 01:08:00,960 --> 01:08:02,600 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. I was like, I was like, yeah, 1206 01:08:02,600 --> 01:08:03,960 Speaker 1: I mean you think you do it for like a 1207 01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:06,280 Speaker 1: couple of thousand bucks. I'll think you're like, except if 1208 01:08:06,280 --> 01:08:09,120 Speaker 1: I separated my shoulder, I had like a lifelong injury 1209 01:08:09,160 --> 01:08:11,880 Speaker 1: from it. So have you ever done one at a bar? Like, oh, yeah, 1210 01:08:11,920 --> 01:08:14,600 Speaker 1: there's one in Dallas. There's a place in Dallas on 1211 01:08:14,840 --> 01:08:18,400 Speaker 1: McKinney Street where I am legendary for both my buck 1212 01:08:18,479 --> 01:08:20,560 Speaker 1: hunter skills as well as being able to ride the 1213 01:08:20,600 --> 01:08:25,360 Speaker 1: mechanical bowl like a superstar. Before we're after alcohol only after. 1214 01:08:25,880 --> 01:08:28,679 Speaker 1: I'm great at both only after all right, shifty Shift 1215 01:08:28,800 --> 01:08:33,920 Speaker 1: is coming back. You're in the freedom hud. This is 1216 01:08:33,960 --> 01:08:40,040 Speaker 1: the Buck Sexton Show podcast. But that's not what the 1217 01:08:40,080 --> 01:08:43,800 Speaker 1: American people want. It's not what the founders contemplated. And 1218 01:08:43,840 --> 01:08:46,480 Speaker 1: if you ask even a majority of Republicans around the country, 1219 01:08:46,760 --> 01:08:50,040 Speaker 1: they want the evidence to come out. And so I 1220 01:08:50,080 --> 01:08:53,360 Speaker 1: think that withholding the articles has thus far flushed out 1221 01:08:53,520 --> 01:08:56,759 Speaker 1: where Mitch McConnell's coming from. It's required senators go on record, 1222 01:08:57,400 --> 01:09:00,400 Speaker 1: and it's my hope that that pressure will result in 1223 01:09:00,479 --> 01:09:03,840 Speaker 1: a real trial fairly American people. That's right. You've got 1224 01:09:03,880 --> 01:09:08,200 Speaker 1: Adam Schiff here telling you that everyone wants the evidence 1225 01:09:08,240 --> 01:09:10,519 Speaker 1: to come out, which is such a dishonest way of 1226 01:09:10,520 --> 01:09:12,880 Speaker 1: framing the issue, because yeah, of course, of course everyone 1227 01:09:12,920 --> 01:09:18,000 Speaker 1: wants the evidence to come out, but they don't want Democrats, 1228 01:09:18,040 --> 01:09:19,760 Speaker 1: if they were asked this question in a way that 1229 01:09:19,840 --> 01:09:22,400 Speaker 1: was more honest, the situation. No, they don't want a 1230 01:09:22,439 --> 01:09:24,960 Speaker 1: situation where Democrats get to determine what evidence has presented, 1231 01:09:25,040 --> 01:09:30,080 Speaker 1: what evidence is suppressed, what witnesses get call, what witnesses don't. 1232 01:09:30,120 --> 01:09:33,080 Speaker 1: We've already gone through this. Democrats got to do exactly 1233 01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:35,240 Speaker 1: what they wanted, exactly the way they wanted to do 1234 01:09:35,280 --> 01:09:38,000 Speaker 1: in the House, and now in the Senate they're doing 1235 01:09:38,000 --> 01:09:42,320 Speaker 1: everything that they can to try and gain this process too, 1236 01:09:42,360 --> 01:09:44,280 Speaker 1: even though they don't have the votes. They are not 1237 01:09:44,400 --> 01:09:46,920 Speaker 1: in charge, but they think they can still act like 1238 01:09:47,000 --> 01:09:51,599 Speaker 1: they are in charge. These people are all right, disgrace. 1239 01:09:52,000 --> 01:09:55,439 Speaker 1: I still think that Nancy Pelosi is going to transmit 1240 01:09:55,479 --> 01:09:58,000 Speaker 1: the articles of impeachment, but now I'm thinking that and 1241 01:09:58,040 --> 01:10:00,800 Speaker 1: this might be a way that we'll have to see 1242 01:10:00,800 --> 01:10:03,160 Speaker 1: how the judges would rule on this. In my little 1243 01:10:03,160 --> 01:10:07,439 Speaker 1: wager here or their friend Jesse Kelly, they may add something, 1244 01:10:07,479 --> 01:10:09,960 Speaker 1: so they may kind of hold it and then add 1245 01:10:10,000 --> 01:10:11,800 Speaker 1: to it and then transmit it, which is a middle 1246 01:10:11,800 --> 01:10:14,920 Speaker 1: way path between transmitting it as is, or just not 1247 01:10:14,960 --> 01:10:20,320 Speaker 1: transmitting the articles of impeachment at all. And this is 1248 01:10:20,360 --> 01:10:23,320 Speaker 1: also you have more evidence of this, bind them claiming 1249 01:10:23,320 --> 01:10:25,639 Speaker 1: that there's more evidence. Play a sixteen here, here's more 1250 01:10:25,640 --> 01:10:29,720 Speaker 1: shifty shift. But we also start out by having the 1251 01:10:29,760 --> 01:10:32,439 Speaker 1: documents come out. And the documents that have been coming 1252 01:10:32,439 --> 01:10:36,040 Speaker 1: out lately are increasingly incriminating of the president. You can 1253 01:10:36,040 --> 01:10:38,759 Speaker 1: see why they want to cover those up. Those documents 1254 01:10:38,760 --> 01:10:43,559 Speaker 1: ought to be provided as well. Just fantasy land stuff. 1255 01:10:43,880 --> 01:10:45,920 Speaker 1: Just make up whatever you have to make up now 1256 01:10:46,280 --> 01:10:48,439 Speaker 1: to try to increase the political pressure, to try to 1257 01:10:48,479 --> 01:10:52,599 Speaker 1: create a change in perception that's advantageous to democrats. That's 1258 01:10:52,600 --> 01:10:55,360 Speaker 1: what is, That's what's underwear. That's what they are trying 1259 01:10:56,080 --> 01:11:01,320 Speaker 1: to do. And I've got to tell you, folks, if 1260 01:11:01,360 --> 01:11:04,719 Speaker 1: we start an app it on this one, there's nothing 1261 01:11:04,720 --> 01:11:08,400 Speaker 1: these Democrats are There's nothing that is too shameful for 1262 01:11:08,439 --> 01:11:10,439 Speaker 1: them to do if it's going to hurt Trump in 1263 01:11:10,439 --> 01:11:13,880 Speaker 1: this selection year. I mean, they are completely insane with 1264 01:11:13,920 --> 01:11:17,320 Speaker 1: their hatred of this president and his supporters, and they 1265 01:11:17,400 --> 01:11:18,920 Speaker 1: really do. I think that a lot of them have 1266 01:11:19,040 --> 01:11:21,760 Speaker 1: convinced themselves. I never know who is being cynical as 1267 01:11:21,800 --> 01:11:23,920 Speaker 1: a Democrat and who is a true believer. I think 1268 01:11:23,920 --> 01:11:26,040 Speaker 1: there are enough true believers who really think that the 1269 01:11:26,080 --> 01:11:28,840 Speaker 1: country is at stake here unless they cheat to win. 1270 01:11:29,520 --> 01:11:33,000 Speaker 1: Thanks for listening to the Bus Sesson Show podcasts. Remember 1271 01:11:33,040 --> 01:11:36,799 Speaker 1: to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever 1272 01:11:36,880 --> 01:11:43,040 Speaker 1: you get your podcasts. They're raging bushfires all over Australia 1273 01:11:43,240 --> 01:11:45,719 Speaker 1: right now. It has been getting a lot of international attention. 1274 01:11:46,360 --> 01:11:51,080 Speaker 1: And this is a moment, a moment in time when 1275 01:11:51,120 --> 01:11:55,639 Speaker 1: I think we could all try to learn a few 1276 01:11:55,680 --> 01:12:00,800 Speaker 1: things about what is useful conversation and situation like this 1277 01:12:00,840 --> 01:12:05,920 Speaker 1: and what is just more virtue signaling by leftists. There's 1278 01:12:05,920 --> 01:12:10,240 Speaker 1: certainly no shortage event going on these days. Here's the 1279 01:12:10,840 --> 01:12:13,920 Speaker 1: latest update. I mean, you've got the death toll from 1280 01:12:13,920 --> 01:12:18,479 Speaker 1: Australia's bush fires at twenty five. The Prime Minister of 1281 01:12:18,479 --> 01:12:22,000 Speaker 1: Australia has said that there'll be an additional one point 1282 01:12:22,040 --> 01:12:24,800 Speaker 1: four billion dollars in recovery efforts. And so you have 1283 01:12:24,840 --> 01:12:27,160 Speaker 1: these little horrible fires all across Australia. Keep in mind 1284 01:12:27,200 --> 01:12:30,880 Speaker 1: the landmass of Australia is absolutely enormous, but the destruction 1285 01:12:30,960 --> 01:12:34,280 Speaker 1: I think is already double in terms of acres burned 1286 01:12:34,320 --> 01:12:37,679 Speaker 1: it's double what you had in the worst fire season 1287 01:12:37,720 --> 01:12:42,040 Speaker 1: in recent years in California. So these are really out 1288 01:12:42,040 --> 01:12:46,679 Speaker 1: of control of bush fires and it's clearly a major problem. 1289 01:12:46,880 --> 01:12:49,080 Speaker 1: It is terrible what's going on because of wildlife can't 1290 01:12:49,160 --> 01:12:53,400 Speaker 1: escape this stuff. Now there is an environmental, major environmental 1291 01:12:53,400 --> 01:12:56,000 Speaker 1: factor here. You have a particularly dry season, not a 1292 01:12:56,040 --> 01:13:00,120 Speaker 1: lot of rain, and it's hot, very hot, very dry, 1293 01:13:00,200 --> 01:13:03,280 Speaker 1: and so yes, you are having a number of fires. 1294 01:13:03,360 --> 01:13:05,760 Speaker 1: And this even came up in the Golden Globes when 1295 01:13:05,760 --> 01:13:09,559 Speaker 1: you had Russell Crowe got an award in absentia and 1296 01:13:10,960 --> 01:13:14,439 Speaker 1: I was gonna say, Rachel from Friends Jennifer Aniston also 1297 01:13:14,479 --> 01:13:16,760 Speaker 1: known as Rachel from Friends, which is no longer on 1298 01:13:16,800 --> 01:13:19,599 Speaker 1: Netflix by the way, which is a bummer. She stood 1299 01:13:19,680 --> 01:13:22,160 Speaker 1: up and she took read a statement from him about 1300 01:13:22,160 --> 01:13:24,720 Speaker 1: how he's defending his family, which of course respect and 1301 01:13:24,720 --> 01:13:27,280 Speaker 1: appreciate that in Australia, making sure they're safe during the 1302 01:13:27,320 --> 01:13:30,840 Speaker 1: bush fire, what the bushfires going, and but that we 1303 01:13:30,880 --> 01:13:32,880 Speaker 1: need to take dramatic action, of course, to come back line, 1304 01:13:32,880 --> 01:13:35,800 Speaker 1: here we go climate change once again, it's climate change. 1305 01:13:36,840 --> 01:13:43,360 Speaker 1: You have green Peace. I'm trying to find this statement 1306 01:13:43,439 --> 01:13:47,400 Speaker 1: they put out. You know, here we go the fires 1307 01:13:47,400 --> 01:13:50,000 Speaker 1: are still burning. This is green Peace Australia and they'll 1308 01:13:50,040 --> 01:13:52,519 Speaker 1: be burning for months to come. That's why I outlined 1309 01:13:52,560 --> 01:13:54,920 Speaker 1: this is an initial investment of two billion dollars. The 1310 01:13:55,000 --> 01:13:57,840 Speaker 1: more is needed, the more is needed, and the cost 1311 01:13:57,920 --> 01:14:00,559 Speaker 1: is higher, they'll be provided. I'm sorry, that's Prime Ministers Morrison. 1312 01:14:01,080 --> 01:14:05,519 Speaker 1: Green Peace responded to that, saying every single sense of 1313 01:14:05,560 --> 01:14:08,360 Speaker 1: that money should be contributed by the coal, gas and 1314 01:14:08,520 --> 01:14:12,639 Speaker 1: oil companies whose carbon pollution has caused the climate crisis 1315 01:14:12,920 --> 01:14:17,360 Speaker 1: that has created these extreme fire conditions right across the country. 1316 01:14:18,760 --> 01:14:21,240 Speaker 1: Slugging everyday taxpayers with the bill for this just adds 1317 01:14:21,240 --> 01:14:26,080 Speaker 1: insult to injury. These big polluters have become rich by 1318 01:14:26,160 --> 01:14:29,439 Speaker 1: trashing our climate and it's time they start coughing up 1319 01:14:29,520 --> 01:14:34,800 Speaker 1: for the repair bill. Now. I want to get into 1320 01:14:34,840 --> 01:14:41,000 Speaker 1: this because this is now part of the global collectivist 1321 01:14:41,000 --> 01:14:44,920 Speaker 1: and socialist surge that we are seeing of all these 1322 01:14:44,960 --> 01:14:47,640 Speaker 1: different people that want there to be massive transfers of 1323 01:14:47,760 --> 01:14:56,320 Speaker 1: wealth determined by massive transfers of wealth determined by these 1324 01:14:56,439 --> 01:15:01,960 Speaker 1: environmentalist bodies, by government agencies and bureaucracy. These and the 1325 01:15:02,040 --> 01:15:04,800 Speaker 1: consequence of this, of course will be severe. But I 1326 01:15:04,840 --> 01:15:06,800 Speaker 1: want to put something else out because you have to really, 1327 01:15:08,320 --> 01:15:10,200 Speaker 1: you have to really look to find this because right 1328 01:15:10,240 --> 01:15:11,680 Speaker 1: now you might say just a hold on second, buck, 1329 01:15:11,720 --> 01:15:13,640 Speaker 1: I mean, if we're really and look, I saw, and 1330 01:15:13,640 --> 01:15:14,960 Speaker 1: I'll be honest with you, there are a few things. 1331 01:15:15,040 --> 01:15:16,439 Speaker 1: I was actually just talking to friend about this over 1332 01:15:16,479 --> 01:15:17,640 Speaker 1: the week, and there a few things that get me 1333 01:15:18,760 --> 01:15:20,800 Speaker 1: choked up as quickly as any anything that's bad that's 1334 01:15:20,800 --> 01:15:23,040 Speaker 1: happened to an animal, particularly a cute animal like not 1335 01:15:23,160 --> 01:15:25,759 Speaker 1: you know, snakes, I can't get that, you know, emotional about, 1336 01:15:25,800 --> 01:15:31,520 Speaker 1: but anything involving dogs, I completely lose it. And Koala's 1337 01:15:31,920 --> 01:15:34,439 Speaker 1: I'm also quite fond of bears, so anything anything with 1338 01:15:34,479 --> 01:15:38,519 Speaker 1: those you know, furry animals that are are mammalian cousins, 1339 01:15:39,080 --> 01:15:44,519 Speaker 1: including marsupials, which are very widespread across Australia as we know, 1340 01:15:46,280 --> 01:15:48,880 Speaker 1: any even a million cousins out there, and bad things 1341 01:15:48,880 --> 01:15:50,200 Speaker 1: are happening with them, and that makes me, That makes 1342 01:15:50,200 --> 01:15:55,280 Speaker 1: me very very sad. That's sad what's causing all of this? 1343 01:15:55,320 --> 01:15:57,080 Speaker 1: Because if we want, if we're upset about it, we 1344 01:15:57,080 --> 01:15:58,880 Speaker 1: want to stop it, shouldn't we understand what the And 1345 01:15:58,920 --> 01:16:01,640 Speaker 1: this is the same thing samesation we've had recently about California. 1346 01:16:01,680 --> 01:16:04,080 Speaker 1: We're just seeing this now in the context of Australia. Now, 1347 01:16:04,080 --> 01:16:07,280 Speaker 1: Australia is like eight thousand miles away from California. It's 1348 01:16:07,280 --> 01:16:09,680 Speaker 1: a long I think that's about right, maybe seventy five 1349 01:16:10,120 --> 01:16:13,000 Speaker 1: something like that, But it's a long, long flight. I 1350 01:16:13,000 --> 01:16:14,360 Speaker 1: haven't made the flight, but I know it's a very 1351 01:16:14,360 --> 01:16:18,200 Speaker 1: long flight. But we're having the mirror image discussion on 1352 01:16:18,240 --> 01:16:20,400 Speaker 1: Australia what we've already had in California. By the way, 1353 01:16:20,560 --> 01:16:23,599 Speaker 1: crazy California Lass. We will have to get to that soon. 1354 01:16:25,880 --> 01:16:29,760 Speaker 1: But here you have a situation where you could say, 1355 01:16:29,800 --> 01:16:31,559 Speaker 1: hold on, we're hearing about climate change all the time. 1356 01:16:31,600 --> 01:16:33,840 Speaker 1: We have these environmentalist groups. All they do is think 1357 01:16:33,880 --> 01:16:36,200 Speaker 1: about this issue and related issues. Right, this is, this 1358 01:16:36,240 --> 01:16:39,080 Speaker 1: is right in their wheelhouse. So they must know what's 1359 01:16:39,120 --> 01:16:42,680 Speaker 1: going on here, right, they must be in the know 1360 01:16:43,640 --> 01:16:49,320 Speaker 1: about this circumstance, this situation and be honest with the public, 1361 01:16:49,360 --> 01:16:51,959 Speaker 1: because if they're going to try to help us prevent 1362 01:16:52,160 --> 01:16:55,720 Speaker 1: this from continuing on as is, we have to know 1363 01:16:55,760 --> 01:16:59,360 Speaker 1: what the real cause is. Right. We can't be placed 1364 01:16:59,360 --> 01:17:03,240 Speaker 1: in a circumstance where we are trying to stop something 1365 01:17:03,320 --> 01:17:05,759 Speaker 1: by doing a thing that isn't related to the cause 1366 01:17:05,760 --> 01:17:07,840 Speaker 1: of the thing we're trying to stop. It's a very 1367 01:17:07,880 --> 01:17:10,080 Speaker 1: complicated way of saying, to waste your time, waste your effort. 1368 01:17:12,040 --> 01:17:14,759 Speaker 1: But here's what I was able to find from poking 1369 01:17:14,760 --> 01:17:19,320 Speaker 1: around a little bit of the most recent studies. There 1370 01:17:19,360 --> 01:17:24,559 Speaker 1: are over fifty thousand bushfires in Australia every year. The 1371 01:17:24,640 --> 01:17:30,360 Speaker 1: Australian National Center for Research in bush Fire and Arson 1372 01:17:31,880 --> 01:17:34,120 Speaker 1: I want to repeat that for Australia has a thing 1373 01:17:34,840 --> 01:17:38,719 Speaker 1: you probably haven't heard of this before, called the National 1374 01:17:38,800 --> 01:17:44,280 Speaker 1: Center for Research in Bushfire and Arson ARSON the intentional 1375 01:17:45,280 --> 01:17:52,920 Speaker 1: creation of or intentional lighting of fires a crime. Why 1376 01:17:52,960 --> 01:17:56,920 Speaker 1: would those two things be related, Well, because when you 1377 01:17:56,960 --> 01:17:59,640 Speaker 1: look at the numbers, you look at what's really going 1378 01:17:59,720 --> 01:18:02,799 Speaker 1: on in Australian hasn't been going on for years. Here's 1379 01:18:02,800 --> 01:18:07,879 Speaker 1: what you find out. At least according to the Institute 1380 01:18:07,920 --> 01:18:09,559 Speaker 1: in Australia, all they do is look at this issue. 1381 01:18:10,040 --> 01:18:14,600 Speaker 1: At least thirteen percent are one hundred percent, meaning at 1382 01:18:14,640 --> 01:18:18,160 Speaker 1: least we know for a for sure because of prosecutions 1383 01:18:18,160 --> 01:18:21,160 Speaker 1: and because of the evidence that thirteen percent of the 1384 01:18:21,240 --> 01:18:25,080 Speaker 1: fifty thousand plus fires in Australia every year. Remember Australia's 1385 01:18:25,120 --> 01:18:27,400 Speaker 1: a continent, it's huge, so it would be like fifty 1386 01:18:27,400 --> 01:18:31,080 Speaker 1: thousand fires in the entirety of the continental United States, 1387 01:18:31,760 --> 01:18:34,360 Speaker 1: right roughly speaking. Same, So it's not we think of 1388 01:18:34,360 --> 01:18:36,040 Speaker 1: it as a country, but it's a huge service. You 1389 01:18:36,040 --> 01:18:38,439 Speaker 1: can actually fit really all of I saw map Mo 1390 01:18:38,640 --> 01:18:40,760 Speaker 1: Strong as the weekend. You can fit effectively all of 1391 01:18:40,760 --> 01:18:45,439 Speaker 1: Western Europe, the landmass of it in Australia pretty close, 1392 01:18:46,680 --> 01:18:49,639 Speaker 1: not including Russia obviously, which is not really Western Europe. 1393 01:18:49,680 --> 01:18:52,400 Speaker 1: That's another conversation for another time. Thirteen percent of these 1394 01:18:52,439 --> 01:18:58,679 Speaker 1: fires are definitely thirty seven percent are suspicious, which means 1395 01:18:59,479 --> 01:19:02,760 Speaker 1: probably started by human beings. Right, Why would a fire 1396 01:19:02,800 --> 01:19:05,560 Speaker 1: be suspicious, Well, you'd have to have some reason for suspicion. 1397 01:19:05,680 --> 01:19:08,200 Speaker 1: If you have reason for suspicion, there's evidence that it 1398 01:19:08,240 --> 01:19:12,400 Speaker 1: wasn't just you know, a lightning strike or something along 1399 01:19:12,400 --> 01:19:17,360 Speaker 1: those lines. And that means that you add those two 1400 01:19:17,400 --> 01:19:24,559 Speaker 1: things together and you have half about half of the 1401 01:19:24,800 --> 01:19:31,640 Speaker 1: bushfires in Australia every year are deliberately set by human beings. 1402 01:19:34,640 --> 01:19:38,120 Speaker 1: So by the way, you might be saying, well, hold 1403 01:19:38,120 --> 01:19:40,840 Speaker 1: on a second buck, that's that's got to be What 1404 01:19:40,880 --> 01:19:44,840 Speaker 1: about people who you know they are camping and they 1405 01:19:44,840 --> 01:19:46,960 Speaker 1: have a camp fire and an ember goes you know, 1406 01:19:47,040 --> 01:19:49,280 Speaker 1: I mean that must happen all the time. Oh yeah, no, 1407 01:19:49,720 --> 01:19:51,840 Speaker 1: that does happen all the time. And you do have 1408 01:19:52,960 --> 01:19:57,240 Speaker 1: a very dangerous environment where you have, you know, a 1409 01:19:57,280 --> 01:19:59,559 Speaker 1: lot of dry tinder, you've got a tremendous amount of heat. 1410 01:19:59,600 --> 01:20:00,920 Speaker 1: Not a lot of boys, sure, because there hasn't been 1411 01:20:00,960 --> 01:20:03,040 Speaker 1: a lot of rain. So that happens. But guess what 1412 01:20:03,960 --> 01:20:07,920 Speaker 1: all of those cases for everybody who leaves a campfire burning, 1413 01:20:07,960 --> 01:20:09,840 Speaker 1: or who burns some brusher, who does something that are 1414 01:20:09,880 --> 01:20:14,080 Speaker 1: not intentionally setting a fire, that's not even included in 1415 01:20:14,160 --> 01:20:17,799 Speaker 1: the fifty percent figure according to the Australian National Center 1416 01:20:17,800 --> 01:20:23,759 Speaker 1: for Research in bush Fire and Arson. So and they 1417 01:20:23,800 --> 01:20:25,679 Speaker 1: don't even know, by the way, I mean, they can't 1418 01:20:25,680 --> 01:20:30,240 Speaker 1: even you gotta assume. I think it's just fair to 1419 01:20:30,240 --> 01:20:34,959 Speaker 1: say that if if roughly half of the bush fires 1420 01:20:35,000 --> 01:20:39,400 Speaker 1: are either certainly or most likely intentionally set in Australia, 1421 01:20:39,479 --> 01:20:41,559 Speaker 1: which is what this boy, this is from how to 1422 01:20:41,600 --> 01:20:43,320 Speaker 1: Dig Deep in the BBC. I mean, this is like 1423 01:20:44,600 --> 01:20:46,360 Speaker 1: it's out there. If you want to find this information, 1424 01:20:46,760 --> 01:20:48,760 Speaker 1: you're not being reported on very much. Why you come 1425 01:20:48,760 --> 01:20:50,080 Speaker 1: here because I actually look for suff So I'm like, 1426 01:20:50,120 --> 01:20:52,880 Speaker 1: this just seems weird that many fires. Huh, they're just 1427 01:20:52,920 --> 01:20:55,320 Speaker 1: popping up all of a sudden. So you cut the 1428 01:20:55,400 --> 01:20:59,599 Speaker 1: number in half right away based on people not setting fires, 1429 01:20:59,600 --> 01:21:01,679 Speaker 1: and get in a discussion why would people set fire? 1430 01:21:01,920 --> 01:21:05,920 Speaker 1: What we'll get to that maybe in a moment. But 1431 01:21:06,000 --> 01:21:09,280 Speaker 1: then you add to it accidental not arson, accidental fires 1432 01:21:10,680 --> 01:21:12,679 Speaker 1: a safe estimate. They don't even know what the stimo 1433 01:21:12,960 --> 01:21:14,880 Speaker 1: a safe estimate is going to be. That's gotta be 1434 01:21:16,760 --> 01:21:20,719 Speaker 1: half of the remaining right, half of the half that's left. 1435 01:21:22,080 --> 01:21:23,720 Speaker 1: So I feel like I'm back in grammar school doing 1436 01:21:23,760 --> 01:21:28,240 Speaker 1: fractions here. But that would mean that based on my 1437 01:21:29,000 --> 01:21:31,160 Speaker 1: back of the envelope, I'm just you know, but back 1438 01:21:31,160 --> 01:21:34,320 Speaker 1: of the envelope calculation of the using the very real 1439 01:21:34,400 --> 01:21:37,679 Speaker 1: number of about fifty percent are intention People are setting 1440 01:21:37,720 --> 01:21:43,839 Speaker 1: fires in Australia on purpose. That is what this research 1441 01:21:43,960 --> 01:21:45,599 Speaker 1: body that all they do is look at this issue. 1442 01:21:45,600 --> 01:21:47,600 Speaker 1: That's what they're telling you. When you add on to 1443 01:21:47,680 --> 01:21:49,960 Speaker 1: that accidental fires, you're looking at roughly let's say seventy 1444 01:21:49,960 --> 01:21:55,519 Speaker 1: five percent of all these fires are nan caused in 1445 01:21:55,560 --> 01:21:58,920 Speaker 1: one way or another, meaning human beings are responsible. We're 1446 01:21:58,920 --> 01:22:00,840 Speaker 1: just like setting these fires because they either meant to 1447 01:22:01,040 --> 01:22:07,120 Speaker 1: or accidentally messed up. Have you seen that reporter anywhere? No? 1448 01:22:07,600 --> 01:22:11,880 Speaker 1: You know why, because they would so much rather show you. Look, 1449 01:22:11,920 --> 01:22:13,840 Speaker 1: I saw the video of the koala that was like 1450 01:22:13,920 --> 01:22:16,400 Speaker 1: singe and I like choked up as horrible and I 1451 01:22:16,400 --> 01:22:20,960 Speaker 1: feel terrible about it. But they show you the koala 1452 01:22:20,960 --> 01:22:23,240 Speaker 1: that has gotten badly burned. They show you people giving 1453 01:22:24,280 --> 01:22:26,280 Speaker 1: water to ke mean, there's video of this all over 1454 01:22:26,280 --> 01:22:29,080 Speaker 1: the place in the Internet. They show people giving little 1455 01:22:29,200 --> 01:22:32,479 Speaker 1: bottles of water to a kangaroo that's parched and has 1456 01:22:32,479 --> 01:22:35,479 Speaker 1: been burned from the flames and trying to escape them. 1457 01:22:35,840 --> 01:22:38,720 Speaker 1: They'll show you this stuff and then they'll immediately turn 1458 01:22:38,760 --> 01:22:41,639 Speaker 1: around and say it's because of climate change. And if 1459 01:22:41,640 --> 01:22:43,960 Speaker 1: you don't see that, you're a bad person and you 1460 01:22:44,040 --> 01:22:49,400 Speaker 1: don't care about the burning koalas and kangaroos. It's emotional blackmail. 1461 01:22:49,840 --> 01:22:53,920 Speaker 1: It's probably this is propaganda. It's very effective techniques of 1462 01:22:53,960 --> 01:22:56,479 Speaker 1: propaganda being deployed by libs on all of this stuff. 1463 01:22:56,479 --> 01:22:59,679 Speaker 1: This is what they are doing. This is the way 1464 01:22:59,760 --> 01:23:03,280 Speaker 1: they approach all of this. And I would just say 1465 01:23:03,320 --> 01:23:06,160 Speaker 1: to you, you've got us. This is why it's so 1466 01:23:06,200 --> 01:23:08,559 Speaker 1: important to have alternative sources of information. Do your own, 1467 01:23:09,120 --> 01:23:12,320 Speaker 1: do your own thinking about this come to places like 1468 01:23:12,360 --> 01:23:14,160 Speaker 1: this where I do, and it's just me and Proson Mark. 1469 01:23:14,160 --> 01:23:15,519 Speaker 1: I mean, we're just doing our own thing in here, 1470 01:23:15,960 --> 01:23:19,439 Speaker 1: doing our own research, pulling our own information and presenting 1471 01:23:19,479 --> 01:23:21,920 Speaker 1: it to you so that you can be informed in 1472 01:23:21,920 --> 01:23:24,280 Speaker 1: a way that you won't be if you rely on, 1473 01:23:24,760 --> 01:23:28,600 Speaker 1: certainly the Golden Globes, which is really just a like 1474 01:23:28,640 --> 01:23:33,439 Speaker 1: a you know, special society of self indulgent idiots, And 1475 01:23:33,800 --> 01:23:35,760 Speaker 1: you won't be if you rely on the mainstream media either, 1476 01:23:35,800 --> 01:23:39,839 Speaker 1: because they think, Remember, the baseline assumption that they're operating 1477 01:23:39,880 --> 01:23:43,320 Speaker 1: from is that climate change is going to destroy the world, 1478 01:23:43,920 --> 01:23:47,120 Speaker 1: and so how they respond they're feeling on this is 1479 01:23:47,160 --> 01:23:51,200 Speaker 1: that anything that they have to do then in order 1480 01:23:51,920 --> 01:23:56,800 Speaker 1: to stop climate change, including lying to you about the 1481 01:23:56,840 --> 01:24:01,080 Speaker 1: reality of the bush fires youeple want to say brush 1482 01:24:01,120 --> 01:24:06,000 Speaker 1: fires bush fires in Australia is entirely is moral. The 1483 01:24:06,120 --> 01:24:10,640 Speaker 1: lie becomes moral, the propaganda becomes self justifying. I mean, 1484 01:24:10,680 --> 01:24:12,080 Speaker 1: it isn't that stunning. I mean, sitting here and just 1485 01:24:12,080 --> 01:24:14,840 Speaker 1: you actually look at this, it's this terrifying thing. The 1486 01:24:14,960 --> 01:24:18,719 Speaker 1: countries inflame. People are dying, animals are being some species 1487 01:24:18,760 --> 01:24:22,880 Speaker 1: they say in Australia are being wiped out. This is 1488 01:24:22,920 --> 01:24:25,479 Speaker 1: all very sad, and then you have to get to okay, well, 1489 01:24:25,479 --> 01:24:27,559 Speaker 1: what's really causing this in the answer is human being 1490 01:24:27,600 --> 01:24:31,960 Speaker 1: setting fires. That's what's really causing the setting fires in 1491 01:24:32,240 --> 01:24:36,040 Speaker 1: a in a situation where the weather is conducive to 1492 01:24:36,360 --> 01:24:38,639 Speaker 1: particularly conducive. It is dry and hot there right now, 1493 01:24:38,720 --> 01:24:43,160 Speaker 1: unseasonably dry and hot. It is not because you know, 1494 01:24:43,560 --> 01:24:46,040 Speaker 1: you aren't riding a tricycle to work every day. That's 1495 01:24:46,080 --> 01:24:49,080 Speaker 1: not what's causing the bush fires in Australia. People need 1496 01:24:49,120 --> 01:24:52,479 Speaker 1: to understand this. Okay, The soupid libs at the Golden 1497 01:24:52,479 --> 01:24:55,840 Speaker 1: Globes don't want to wrestle with the facts here, but trying, 1498 01:24:55,880 --> 01:25:00,559 Speaker 1: you know, giving gaseous speeches about trying to stop COO 1499 01:25:00,560 --> 01:25:04,840 Speaker 1: two gas from getting into the atmosphere is helping nobody. 1500 01:25:04,880 --> 01:25:07,160 Speaker 1: And then you have on top of this the socialist 1501 01:25:07,200 --> 01:25:10,400 Speaker 1: agenda of these different environmentalist groups that really want major 1502 01:25:10,439 --> 01:25:12,880 Speaker 1: corporations to fund them and then they'll leave them alone. 1503 01:25:12,920 --> 01:25:16,600 Speaker 1: It's it's like a protection racket they're running. You know, Exonmobile, 1504 01:25:16,680 --> 01:25:20,800 Speaker 1: You've got to fund our wacko environmentalist green energy you know, 1505 01:25:21,120 --> 01:25:24,280 Speaker 1: advocacy group, or else we're gonna tell everybody how terrible 1506 01:25:24,320 --> 01:25:25,519 Speaker 1: you are, but if you fund us, you know, we'll 1507 01:25:25,520 --> 01:25:28,800 Speaker 1: probably leave you alone a little bit. Nice capitalism you got, 1508 01:25:28,840 --> 01:25:30,599 Speaker 1: there be a shame if something happened to it. This 1509 01:25:30,640 --> 01:25:33,519 Speaker 1: is what these green groups are doing all over the world, 1510 01:25:33,600 --> 01:25:36,000 Speaker 1: not just here. They're doing in Australia, any any developed country, 1511 01:25:36,160 --> 01:25:39,040 Speaker 1: any places where there's like the fatted cow of capitalism 1512 01:25:39,040 --> 01:25:41,840 Speaker 1: to be slaughtered. These green groups find a way to 1513 01:25:42,600 --> 01:25:48,240 Speaker 1: pretend that the answer is to turn it into hamburgers, 1514 01:25:49,040 --> 01:25:51,280 Speaker 1: right ruin. What has been working so well for us, 1515 01:25:51,280 --> 01:25:54,200 Speaker 1: has made us all so much more prosperous and comfortable 1516 01:25:54,400 --> 01:25:58,280 Speaker 1: and live longer and all these other things. This is 1517 01:25:58,280 --> 01:26:00,559 Speaker 1: the truth of the situation us. Rather, it's just something 1518 01:26:00,560 --> 01:26:02,080 Speaker 1: and then and then I just just briefly, I mean, 1519 01:26:02,120 --> 01:26:05,000 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think you'd have to be a 1520 01:26:05,000 --> 01:26:07,800 Speaker 1: a psychologist to understand this, or I mean I'm not 1521 01:26:07,840 --> 01:26:10,040 Speaker 1: even Also a lot of psychologists I see them on TV, 1522 01:26:10,120 --> 01:26:11,559 Speaker 1: I'm like, well, that guy didn't tell me anything I 1523 01:26:11,560 --> 01:26:16,679 Speaker 1: didn't already know. It's really yeah, you know, not particularly 1524 01:26:16,720 --> 01:26:19,240 Speaker 1: impressive a lot of time with the diagnoses of different 1525 01:26:19,280 --> 01:26:23,280 Speaker 1: psychoses and such. But here's what I would say. There 1526 01:26:23,320 --> 01:26:27,920 Speaker 1: are remember the scene in Batman Begins where Michael Caine. 1527 01:26:29,240 --> 01:26:32,640 Speaker 1: I's got that really like you know Cookney accent, Like 1528 01:26:32,720 --> 01:26:35,280 Speaker 1: no one actually talks like that, but except for Michael 1529 01:26:35,360 --> 01:26:40,960 Speaker 1: Caine and the movie talks like this, excuse me, excuse me, governor, 1530 01:26:41,280 --> 01:26:44,800 Speaker 1: you know the whole thing. Um. He's like, you know, 1531 01:26:44,840 --> 01:26:47,800 Speaker 1: when I was always in the Imperial Service in Burma 1532 01:26:48,360 --> 01:26:51,559 Speaker 1: and there was there was this bloke who was running 1533 01:26:51,600 --> 01:26:54,320 Speaker 1: a rebel group who had a ruby the size of 1534 01:26:54,360 --> 01:26:58,040 Speaker 1: a tangerine. Some people just want to see the word burn. 1535 01:26:59,720 --> 01:27:03,200 Speaker 1: That's pretty much it, folks. Some people see an opportunity 1536 01:27:03,240 --> 01:27:08,320 Speaker 1: to destroy, and for very deep seated reasons, they seize 1537 01:27:08,400 --> 01:27:12,519 Speaker 1: upon it. And for some individuals that is through fire. 1538 01:27:13,320 --> 01:27:16,360 Speaker 1: This is why there are people who are arsonists. They 1539 01:27:16,400 --> 01:27:20,599 Speaker 1: like that momentary sense or that continuing sense of power 1540 01:27:20,680 --> 01:27:25,920 Speaker 1: they get from being the originator, from being the cause 1541 01:27:26,120 --> 01:27:31,320 Speaker 1: of tremendous destruction. There is perhaps a hole in their soul. 1542 01:27:31,560 --> 01:27:33,519 Speaker 1: I can't begin to understand why anybody would do this, 1543 01:27:33,640 --> 01:27:36,519 Speaker 1: especially given the danger it puts fellow human beings in 1544 01:27:36,520 --> 01:27:40,120 Speaker 1: the destruction of property and the animals that will all 1545 01:27:40,160 --> 01:27:42,559 Speaker 1: be burned are being burned as a result of this. 1546 01:27:43,880 --> 01:27:46,360 Speaker 1: But there are some very bad people out there, and 1547 01:27:46,400 --> 01:27:52,719 Speaker 1: there are people who have various kinds of sickness of soul. 1548 01:27:52,760 --> 01:27:54,640 Speaker 1: I'm not sure we call it even mental illness, just 1549 01:27:54,680 --> 01:27:58,000 Speaker 1: a sickness of soul. And that's the only explanation I 1550 01:27:58,000 --> 01:27:59,519 Speaker 1: can come up with for why anybody would set a 1551 01:27:59,520 --> 01:28:03,360 Speaker 1: fire like this, especially under these conditions and circumstances. It's 1552 01:28:03,360 --> 01:28:07,280 Speaker 1: so obviously dangerous. But that's what's really happening here. For 1553 01:28:07,400 --> 01:28:09,439 Speaker 1: all the all the stuff about how we have to 1554 01:28:09,479 --> 01:28:12,680 Speaker 1: combat climate change, which now I no longer can take 1555 01:28:12,720 --> 01:28:15,080 Speaker 1: the intelligence of any person seriously, who really thinks that 1556 01:28:15,200 --> 01:28:17,519 Speaker 1: combating climate change is something we have to do. I 1557 01:28:17,560 --> 01:28:20,080 Speaker 1: just I just don't think it's possible to be I 1558 01:28:20,080 --> 01:28:22,000 Speaker 1: don't think it's possible to have good judgment. You may 1559 01:28:22,120 --> 01:28:26,320 Speaker 1: you may be someone who has ability in other areas, 1560 01:28:26,360 --> 01:28:28,320 Speaker 1: you do not have good judgment. If you believe that 1561 01:28:28,360 --> 01:28:30,439 Speaker 1: combating climate change is something we all have to do, 1562 01:28:32,880 --> 01:28:35,760 Speaker 1: you're in the freedom hud. This is the Buck Sex 1563 01:28:35,840 --> 01:28:42,759 Speaker 1: and Show podcast. Now we have really we have great support, 1564 01:28:43,160 --> 01:28:47,240 Speaker 1: but we have tremendous views and much of it so 1565 01:28:47,320 --> 01:28:49,360 Speaker 1: much of it is just honest on the other side. 1566 01:28:49,600 --> 01:28:52,679 Speaker 1: But we're plowing through it, and I really do believe 1567 01:28:52,720 --> 01:28:55,400 Speaker 1: we have got on US side. I believe that. I 1568 01:28:55,560 --> 01:29:00,840 Speaker 1: believe that. You know, first of all, I love that 1569 01:29:00,880 --> 01:29:03,000 Speaker 1: just because when Trump says, if we have got on 1570 01:29:03,000 --> 01:29:05,320 Speaker 1: our side, you know that the drive's liberals completely insane, 1571 01:29:05,960 --> 01:29:08,120 Speaker 1: which is an exciting thing for me. So let's begin there. 1572 01:29:08,240 --> 01:29:13,000 Speaker 1: That's great. I mean, it triggers the Libs for Trump 1573 01:29:13,120 --> 01:29:17,400 Speaker 1: to say we have got on our side. And I'm 1574 01:29:17,400 --> 01:29:20,400 Speaker 1: not going to pretend that Trump is. It would be absurd, 1575 01:29:20,439 --> 01:29:23,080 Speaker 1: It would be it would be ridiculous to pretend that 1576 01:29:23,120 --> 01:29:30,040 Speaker 1: Trump's life pre president was the Christian ideal. But none 1577 01:29:30,040 --> 01:29:32,720 Speaker 1: of us are the Christian ideal. It's also true I 1578 01:29:32,760 --> 01:29:34,559 Speaker 1: am not the Christian ideal. I doubt any of you 1579 01:29:34,600 --> 01:29:38,639 Speaker 1: listening would claim to be. And increasingly, when I see 1580 01:29:38,680 --> 01:29:41,599 Speaker 1: the opposition to US, I have to say. Trump maybe 1581 01:29:41,640 --> 01:29:43,240 Speaker 1: meant it a bit as a job, but I think 1582 01:29:43,479 --> 01:29:47,280 Speaker 1: he also meant it because it's true. I do think 1583 01:29:47,280 --> 01:29:50,599 Speaker 1: that if God is picking sides in this election, he's 1584 01:29:50,680 --> 01:29:53,680 Speaker 1: hoping to keep America great.

Okay, 1619 01:32:03,640 --> 01:32:08,120 Speaker 1: So this is this is because of a fellow name 1620 01:32:08,200 --> 01:32:09,720 Speaker 1: and I know I call him, I just it's such 1621 01:32:09,760 --> 01:32:14,600 Speaker 1: a fun nickname. But it's a guy named Don Blankenship 1622 01:32:15,479 --> 01:32:19,400 Speaker 1: who ran the series of ads, and he's just trying 1623 01:32:19,439 --> 01:32:23,000 Speaker 1: to I guess he's trying to primary Mitch McConnell. And 1624 01:32:23,240 --> 01:32:29,439 Speaker 1: he referred to Mitch McConnell's wife has some ownership interest 1625 01:32:29,560 --> 01:32:32,800 Speaker 1: or you know, owns a piece of a shipping company. 1626 01:32:32,960 --> 01:32:36,120 Speaker 1: I believe it was the backstory here. She's she's Chinese 1627 01:32:36,240 --> 01:32:41,519 Speaker 1: or her family she is of Chinese background, and there 1628 01:32:41,600 --> 01:32:44,519 Speaker 1: was some somebody on the ship was arrested for like 1629 01:32:44,520 --> 01:32:46,240 Speaker 1: on one of these ships for this global shipping company 1630 01:32:46,280 --> 01:32:48,000 Speaker 1: was arrest for cocaine I think or something. Anyway, Don 1631 01:32:48,000 --> 01:32:51,120 Speaker 1: Blankenship came up with this thing that Mitch McConnell it's 1632 01:32:51,160 --> 01:32:54,920 Speaker 1: like part of this international cocaine distribution conspiracy, and he 1633 01:32:55,000 --> 01:32:57,920 Speaker 1: ransom ad on it and referred to him as Cocaine Mitch. 1634 01:32:58,520 --> 01:33:00,840 Speaker 1: And in this campaign ad which producer mark we should 1635 01:33:00,880 --> 01:33:03,720 Speaker 1: find this the original the original blankets ship. Not for now, 1636 01:33:03,720 --> 01:33:05,320 Speaker 1: well maybe later this week. It's kind of a little 1637 01:33:05,320 --> 01:33:07,120 Speaker 1: fun I'd like to give the team someone to look 1638 01:33:07,120 --> 01:33:11,680 Speaker 1: forward to, you know what I mean. But we will, Yeah, 1639 01:33:11,840 --> 01:33:17,720 Speaker 1: we will do a update on all things Cocaine Mitch 1640 01:33:17,800 --> 01:33:20,720 Speaker 1: for for your listening enjoyment. But that's where it comes from. 1641 01:33:20,760 --> 01:33:22,760 Speaker 1: Don Blanketship referred to him as Cocaine Mitch, and it's 1642 01:33:22,760 --> 01:33:25,000 Speaker 1: a nickname that kind of stuck. And I heard from 1643 01:33:25,040 --> 01:33:29,600 Speaker 1: somebody who was very close to Mitch McConnell that he 1644 01:33:29,600 --> 01:33:32,400 Speaker 1: actually thinks the nickname is pretty funny. So because if 1645 01:33:32,439 --> 01:33:37,760 Speaker 1: there's anybody who's involved in the international international cocaine distribution, 1646 01:33:37,800 --> 01:33:42,840 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell will be very very very low on that list. 1647 01:33:43,920 --> 01:33:46,800 Speaker 1: But that's why, so totally legitimate question, and it's from 1648 01:33:46,840 --> 01:33:49,559 Speaker 1: Don Blanketship running ads against Mitch McConnell where he called 1649 01:33:49,640 --> 01:33:56,599 Speaker 1: him cocaine. Mitch, Zach, who is oss Buck? You're the best? Well, Zach, 1650 01:33:56,680 --> 01:33:59,519 Speaker 1: I think you're the best, no surprise. Your analysis on 1651 01:33:59,600 --> 01:34:03,840 Speaker 1: current around Iraq, Iran and Sulimani has been spot on. 1652 01:34:04,680 --> 01:34:07,439 Speaker 1: I think you should bring Joe Kent on your show 1653 01:34:07,479 --> 01:34:11,479 Speaker 1: to discuss further. He's a retired Green Beret Chief Warrant 1654 01:34:11,479 --> 01:34:15,240 Speaker 1: Officer out of Fifth Group with extensive experience in the 1655 01:34:15,240 --> 01:34:18,800 Speaker 1: Iraqi Shia. He's also a gold star husband. He lost 1656 01:34:18,840 --> 01:34:21,880 Speaker 1: his wife shan And in Syria last year. He brings 1657 01:34:21,920 --> 01:34:24,519 Speaker 1: a very sober and realistic perspective of this situation. He's 1658 01:34:24,520 --> 01:34:26,360 Speaker 1: done some quick hits on Fox. I think your show'd 1659 01:34:26,360 --> 01:34:29,880 Speaker 1: be a better format shieldside. Zach, thank you so much 1660 01:34:29,880 --> 01:34:33,519 Speaker 1: for the suggestion. I'm not familiar with Joe Kent, but 1661 01:34:33,560 --> 01:34:35,080 Speaker 1: we will take a look and we'd love to have 1662 01:34:35,160 --> 01:34:37,120 Speaker 1: him on the show to talk about this, given the 1663 01:34:37,160 --> 01:34:41,280 Speaker 1: background that you've presented that he has. So anytime you 1664 01:34:41,280 --> 01:34:43,800 Speaker 1: guys have somebody that you particularly think would be good 1665 01:34:43,800 --> 01:34:46,320 Speaker 1: for this format. We are going to start doing more 1666 01:34:46,720 --> 01:34:49,120 Speaker 1: long form interviews in the future and we're gonna put 1667 01:34:49,120 --> 01:34:51,880 Speaker 1: them up on podcast. But also we're going to have 1668 01:34:51,920 --> 01:34:55,160 Speaker 1: a YouTube going. And so we're getting all these things moving. 1669 01:34:55,640 --> 01:34:57,400 Speaker 1: I've been telling many of you for you know, it 1670 01:34:57,439 --> 01:34:59,840 Speaker 1: always happens. It just takes me to time because we 1671 01:35:00,520 --> 01:35:02,720 Speaker 1: it's just a team of two in here in the 1672 01:35:02,760 --> 01:35:06,160 Speaker 1: hot right now, and it is not easy to get 1673 01:35:06,160 --> 01:35:07,720 Speaker 1: all these things. And I got a book, I gotta right, 1674 01:35:07,760 --> 01:35:09,519 Speaker 1: I got a YouTube channel, like a lot of things 1675 01:35:09,560 --> 01:35:11,920 Speaker 1: I got to do all the time. So, um, I 1676 01:35:11,960 --> 01:35:13,519 Speaker 1: did tell you that, for example, we would start getting 1677 01:35:13,520 --> 01:35:15,519 Speaker 1: the podcast of a show out earlier, and now we do. 1678 01:35:15,600 --> 01:35:17,439 Speaker 1: Now it's out every day by three eastern so those 1679 01:35:17,479 --> 01:35:21,680 Speaker 1: of you who want can listen much earlier, which has 1680 01:35:21,720 --> 01:35:27,040 Speaker 1: been a plan of mine all along.

The TV series murder 1691 01:36:00,160 --> 01:36:05,040 Speaker 1: In is a British fantasy adventure drama television program BBC 1692 01:36:05,200 --> 01:36:08,040 Speaker 1: drama series between two thousand and eight and twenty twelve. 1693 01:36:08,160 --> 01:36:11,760 Speaker 1: I'm assuming it aired then not takes place. Then I 1694 01:36:11,840 --> 01:36:14,400 Speaker 1: like it because it has basic humor, swordplay and magic. 1695 01:36:14,760 --> 01:36:16,880 Speaker 1: Plus it is clean and the whole family can watch. 1696 01:36:17,200 --> 01:36:19,920 Speaker 1: This program helps when you want to turn the brain 1697 01:36:20,000 --> 01:36:23,720 Speaker 1: off for a while. Well, oh, thank you for that. 1698 01:36:23,720 --> 01:36:29,840 Speaker 1: That's certainly sounds pretty cool. I like all that you know, 1699 01:36:29,920 --> 01:36:33,599 Speaker 1: medieval magic, sword, dungeons and dragon stuff, usually as a genre, 1700 01:36:34,720 --> 01:36:36,280 Speaker 1: not the Witcher, which is the worst thing ever. But 1701 01:36:36,320 --> 01:36:38,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna stop. I'm gonna stop. Some of you like 1702 01:36:38,240 --> 01:36:40,120 Speaker 1: it and you get mad at me. Fine, you're allowed 1703 01:36:40,120 --> 01:36:42,040 Speaker 1: to like it. You're allowed to look team. I love 1704 01:36:42,040 --> 01:36:43,439 Speaker 1: all of you. You're allowed to be wrong. Sometimes you 1705 01:36:43,439 --> 01:36:49,040 Speaker 1: can be wrong about the Witcher. That's cool, Marina Rights, 1706 01:36:50,400 --> 01:36:52,439 Speaker 1: I trust you in Producer Mark kind a lovely holiday 1707 01:36:52,479 --> 01:36:55,439 Speaker 1: season and you had a fun birthday celebration. Well, Marina, 1708 01:36:55,479 --> 01:36:58,040 Speaker 1: I was a little sick, but thank you. Nonetheless, I've 1709 01:36:58,040 --> 01:37:00,719 Speaker 1: been watching some of the comments the Democratic already presidential 1710 01:37:00,720 --> 01:37:04,320 Speaker 1: hope pols and ridiculous celebrities have made regarding Trump's decision 1711 01:37:04,360 --> 01:37:07,120 Speaker 1: to take out Sulimani with that drone strike, and I 1712 01:37:07,120 --> 01:37:10,519 Speaker 1: couldn't help but recall Hillary Clinton's glib comments and giggles 1713 01:37:11,040 --> 01:37:14,320 Speaker 1: about the death of Muamar Kaddafi. We came, we saw 1714 01:37:14,479 --> 01:37:18,120 Speaker 1: he died. That's the thing about lying. It's very hard 1715 01:37:18,120 --> 01:37:21,240 Speaker 1: to keep track of what you said previously. Love life 1716 01:37:21,280 --> 01:37:24,840 Speaker 1: and freedom to you both. In twenty twenty, Marina of 1717 01:37:24,880 --> 01:37:28,520 Speaker 1: the esteemed group of Patriots known as OSS, the original 1718 01:37:28,800 --> 01:37:33,000 Speaker 1: Saturday Squad people that have been with me, now, gosh, 1719 01:37:33,120 --> 01:37:37,320 Speaker 1: it's going on with going on eight years Marina, Yeah, 1720 01:37:37,360 --> 01:37:39,320 Speaker 1: I mean they have a different This is one of 1721 01:37:39,320 --> 01:37:41,320 Speaker 1: the main things that we have to call out and 1722 01:37:41,320 --> 01:37:43,120 Speaker 1: talk about here on the show, as the Democrats have 1723 01:37:43,160 --> 01:37:47,000 Speaker 1: different standards of what's acceptable for Democrats versus what is 1724 01:37:47,040 --> 01:37:52,400 Speaker 1: acceptable for Republicans. That's true all the time. I mean, 1725 01:37:52,760 --> 01:37:56,080 Speaker 1: variety of context is true all the time. Really, they 1726 01:37:56,120 --> 01:37:57,960 Speaker 1: do not have a universal standard because if there was 1727 01:37:57,960 --> 01:37:59,760 Speaker 1: a universal standard that could be held to account, they 1728 01:37:59,760 --> 01:38:01,479 Speaker 1: do not want to be held to account. They want 1729 01:38:01,479 --> 01:38:03,080 Speaker 1: to be able to do whatever they want to do, 1730 01:38:03,800 --> 01:38:06,760 Speaker 1: pursue power, get away with things. Double standards are fun, 1731 01:38:07,240 --> 01:38:11,000 Speaker 1: being a hypocrites fun get away with a lot. And 1732 01:38:11,040 --> 01:38:13,920 Speaker 1: it's certainly true about Hillary and the intervention in Libya 1733 01:38:14,000 --> 01:38:15,880 Speaker 1: and what was the point and what were we doing there? 1734 01:38:15,880 --> 01:38:18,120 Speaker 1: And where was the congressional boabbli blah. I don't know, 1735 01:38:19,160 --> 01:38:23,680 Speaker 1: None of that matters. It's all about how Democrats absolutely 1736 01:38:25,120 --> 01:38:29,960 Speaker 1: want power. Guyle writes, Hey, Buck, if Sean Parnell was 1737 01:38:30,000 --> 01:38:33,080 Speaker 1: listening good luck on your run for office, Buck, you 1738 01:38:33,120 --> 01:38:35,280 Speaker 1: asked Sean about the best flavor of ice cream?

To just 1740 01:38:37,560 --> 01:38:39,479 Speaker 1: have a little diversion here from this for one second, 1741 01:38:40,120 --> 01:38:41,800 Speaker 1: you know, my parents told me, and like they kind 1742 01:38:41,800 --> 01:38:43,320 Speaker 1: of had to tell me this solemnly because I was 1743 01:38:43,320 --> 01:38:45,240 Speaker 1: over there obviously for the holidays hanging out with them. Now, 1744 01:38:45,439 --> 01:38:49,200 Speaker 1: you know what, Buck, we like strawberry ice cream. I 1745 01:38:49,240 --> 01:38:53,240 Speaker 1: don't know, man, I was then. I just I thought 1746 01:38:53,240 --> 01:38:55,479 Speaker 1: everybody understood the strawberry ice cream is the worst. But 1747 01:38:55,520 --> 01:38:58,640 Speaker 1: my own family there are strawberry, all of them. They're strawberry. 1748 01:38:58,520 --> 01:39:02,519 Speaker 1: And my parents, my siblings understand my parents are strawberry 1749 01:39:02,560 --> 01:39:04,960 Speaker 1: ice cream eaters, though I don't just know, Like my 1750 01:39:05,000 --> 01:39:07,200 Speaker 1: dad respects, and so there's my mom a good pistachio. 1751 01:39:07,240 --> 01:39:09,640 Speaker 1: Like they know the real ice cream flavors too, but 1752 01:39:09,680 --> 01:39:12,120 Speaker 1: they'll eat strawberry ice cream, and I just think at 1753 01:39:12,120 --> 01:39:14,840 Speaker 1: some point it's actually my wife's favorite. Like there's a 1754 01:39:14,960 --> 01:39:17,200 Speaker 1: very famous ice cream plates we go to where where 1755 01:39:17,200 --> 01:39:20,879 Speaker 1: we live. Give it a sacio.

Thank God he 1764 01:39:41,240 --> 01:39:44,519 Speaker 1: did not say strawberry. I add that in his cookies 1765 01:39:44,520 --> 01:39:46,840 Speaker 1: and cream is almost a perfect answer. I have a 1766 01:39:46,880 --> 01:39:50,040 Speaker 1: local dairy queen trained to add bacon to the blizzards. 1767 01:39:50,439 --> 01:39:53,120 Speaker 1: What all I have to do is say, will you 1768 01:39:53,200 --> 01:39:56,160 Speaker 1: guile that for me? And they blend in bacon bits. 1769 01:39:56,720 --> 01:39:59,559 Speaker 1: I do prefer it with carmel chunks, but it works 1770 01:39:59,560 --> 01:40:01,960 Speaker 1: with any thing. I'm serious. If you try it, you 1771 01:40:02,040 --> 01:40:04,639 Speaker 1: won't be disappointed.

All right, Now, we 1809 01:41:40,640 --> 01:41:45,800 Speaker 1: got for roll call Robert, who writes in deer Buck 1810 01:41:45,880 --> 01:41:48,200 Speaker 1: on your show Thursday afternoon, as you said you were 1811 01:41:48,200 --> 01:41:51,719 Speaker 1: not feeling well. To help prevent the colds and flu 1812 01:41:51,800 --> 01:41:54,759 Speaker 1: of winter, I take two natural remedies which I can recommend. 1813 01:41:54,800 --> 01:41:57,679 Speaker 1: The first is Echinatia, which is an over the counter 1814 01:41:57,720 --> 01:42:01,160 Speaker 1: remedy that helps strengthen the immune system. I take it 1815 01:42:01,160 --> 01:42:03,640 Speaker 1: if I start to feel run down. Its value was 1816 01:42:03,680 --> 01:42:06,920 Speaker 1: confirmed when I was speaking with Congressman Andy Harris, a 1817 01:42:06,960 --> 01:42:11,000 Speaker 1: practicing anesthesiologist, who said it's the first thing he takes 1818 01:42:11,000 --> 01:42:14,599 Speaker 1: when he starts feeling bad. The second item of value 1819 01:42:14,600 --> 01:42:18,360 Speaker 1: for specifically helping to prevent influenza is an Elderberry and 1820 01:42:18,680 --> 01:42:23,240 Speaker 1: black current preparation. The product which I buy is Immune 1821 01:42:23,320 --> 01:42:27,120 Speaker 1: take Care by New Chapter, a very reputable nutraceutical company. 1822 01:42:27,320 --> 01:42:29,639 Speaker 1: About ten years ago, I had the flu, began recovering, 1823 01:42:29,640 --> 01:42:32,920 Speaker 1: and then had a relapse. Elderberry was recommended, and I 1824 01:42:32,960 --> 01:42:35,479 Speaker 1: took the product and the next day had no flu symptoms. 1825 01:42:35,720 --> 01:42:37,519 Speaker 1: While I am no longer employed, I do take it 1826 01:42:37,520 --> 01:42:39,320 Speaker 1: when I'm out among people and had not had the 1827 01:42:39,320 --> 01:42:43,280 Speaker 1: flu since that episode. Keep talking, Robert, Robert, thank you. 1828 01:42:43,320 --> 01:42:46,400 Speaker 1: I've certainly heard a lot about echinatia over the years, 1829 01:42:46,960 --> 01:42:52,280 Speaker 1: I have never heard of taking elderberry and black current. 1830 01:42:52,360 --> 01:42:55,240 Speaker 1: Though I've heard of elderberry. I don't know what it does, 1831 01:42:55,280 --> 01:42:57,240 Speaker 1: but I've definitely heard the term.

It is a respected of 1870 01:45:00,560 --> 01:45:02,559 Speaker 1: someone who is unfamiliar with the source material, So I 1871 01:45:02,600 --> 01:45:07,000 Speaker 1: don't blame you anyway. The Witcher on Netflix is absolutely 1872 01:45:07,040 --> 01:45:10,880 Speaker 1: amazing when you came from the gamer or book reader's perspective. 1873 01:45:11,240 --> 01:45:15,080 Speaker 1: Without going too deep, Eastern European folklore is a very 1874 01:45:15,160 --> 01:45:18,479 Speaker 1: strange thing compared to what we think of with monsters 1875 01:45:18,479 --> 01:45:21,559 Speaker 1: and magic fantasy. But when you are familiar with what 1876 01:45:21,600 --> 01:45:25,760 Speaker 1: The Witcher is, the show is so great. Andrew, your 1877 01:45:26,040 --> 01:45:30,000 Speaker 1: bro from Indiana. PS. If you get to a point 1878 01:45:30,000 --> 01:45:32,599 Speaker 1: in your life where there is time for video games, 1879 01:45:32,880 --> 01:45:38,160 Speaker 1: play which or three on PlayStation four? Okay, I mean Andrew, 1880 01:45:38,160 --> 01:45:41,040 Speaker 1: Because I have not I have no knowledge of this 1881 01:45:41,560 --> 01:45:45,360 Speaker 1: video game. I can't say that, well, you're wrong. I 1882 01:45:45,479 --> 01:45:47,559 Speaker 1: just I think that you have to when you present 1883 01:45:47,600 --> 01:45:50,160 Speaker 1: a show on Netflix, it has to be a good 1884 01:45:50,200 --> 01:45:51,760 Speaker 1: product for what it is. It can't just be a 1885 01:45:51,760 --> 01:45:54,720 Speaker 1: good product for some very small subset of the population 1886 01:45:54,840 --> 01:45:57,559 Speaker 1: that is familiar. But I don't know. I guess they 1887 01:45:57,600 --> 01:45:59,160 Speaker 1: make some things for the fans out there. I'm not 1888 01:45:59,120 --> 01:46:01,040 Speaker 1: gonna lie to you guys. I hate when I say 1889 01:46:01,080 --> 01:46:02,120 Speaker 1: that because I never lied to you, but it's a 1890 01:46:02,120 --> 01:46:07,240 Speaker 1: phrase that people use. I watched Doom. I forget what 1891 01:46:07,280 --> 01:46:11,120 Speaker 1: it was like the New Doom movie, which was so 1892 01:46:11,200 --> 01:46:13,280 Speaker 1: bad but like so brainless that it was kind of 1893 01:46:13,320 --> 01:46:15,479 Speaker 1: okay to watch. It's like a bad rip off of 1894 01:46:15,479 --> 01:46:17,760 Speaker 1: the movie Aliens. But you know, Doom was a video game. 1895 01:46:18,439 --> 01:46:21,280 Speaker 1: It is like they opened ah it's like futuristic, but 1896 01:46:21,280 --> 01:46:23,360 Speaker 1: they opened a portatal hell. It's the first person shooter. 1897 01:46:23,360 --> 01:46:25,120 Speaker 1: I think it was one of the original reminds me 1898 01:46:25,160 --> 01:46:29,360 Speaker 1: of Wolfenstein. Another did you ever play Wolfenstein? That was great. 1899 01:46:30,240 --> 01:46:32,599 Speaker 1: That was a fun game. You just ran around shooting Nazis. 1900 01:46:32,600 --> 01:46:35,760 Speaker 1: It was pre inglorious bastards, which I feel I kind 1901 01:46:35,760 --> 01:46:39,080 Speaker 1: of just stole the basic idea from Wolfenstein was the 1902 01:46:39,160 --> 01:46:42,120 Speaker 1: name of the video game. Okay, we ran into some 1903 01:46:42,160 --> 01:46:44,080 Speaker 1: interesting stuff today on the show. Tomorrow show is going 1904 01:46:44,120 --> 01:46:45,840 Speaker 1: to be amazing.
