1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:06,440 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Third hour of The Clay Travis and 3 00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:09,760 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show begins right now. Thank you for joining us, 4 00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:14,080 Speaker 1: Thanks for listening. In Russia Ukraine, the war that is 5 00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:19,680 Speaker 1: still underway and getting more attention here in the US 6 00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:22,319 Speaker 1: than it has in a while because of some of 7 00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:26,240 Speaker 1: the recent changes on the ground. First off, Russia recently 8 00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:30,200 Speaker 1: held a referendum it's being called the Sham referendum in 9 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:36,560 Speaker 1: the West, by effectively giving a or holding a vote 10 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:44,920 Speaker 1: to join the Russian Federation in the eastern southeastern areas 11 00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:48,680 Speaker 1: of Ukraine, the Dawn Boss and some of the contiguous areas. 12 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:53,240 Speaker 1: But in recent days, the Ukrainian military has been on 13 00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:57,560 Speaker 1: the offensive and is getting deeper and deeper into territory 14 00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:02,200 Speaker 1: that had been seized previously by the Russians. There is 15 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 1: battlefield momentum behind the Ukrainians right now. We also just 16 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: had the news break in the last hour that the 17 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 1: US government is sending another six hundred and twenty five 18 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:19,600 Speaker 1: million dollars to Ukraine to assist it militarily. We and 19 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 1: some of our allies in Europe are funding this war. 20 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 1: We should remember that We're not just helping a little bit. 21 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 1: We are funding it. We are writing the checks. Without us, 22 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: the Ukrainian war machine would come to a screeching halt. 23 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 1: So Ukraine is getting near the doorstep of the Dunbass 24 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 1: region right now, and people are asking some very important questions. 25 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 1: How does this end? And what if it goes really badly? 26 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 1: Let's start with the hat as this end. Because this 27 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 1: was particularly interesting, got a lot of attention online. Elon 28 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 1: Musk tweeted out the following and this we're talking about 29 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 1: millions and millions of eyeballs on this exchange. Oh, the 30 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: soon to be owner of Twitter, by the way, put 31 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 1: this out on Twitter. That'll be fascinating. By the way, 32 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 1: I mean the influence that he will have. He already 33 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 1: has a lot on Twitter, but once he's the owner 34 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,800 Speaker 1: as well, that'll be really interesting. But back to Russia Ukraine, 35 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 1: he said, Ukraine Russia piece, and he laid it out 36 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 1: as follows redo elections of annexed regions under UN supervision, 37 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: Russia leaves, if that is the will of the people, 38 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 1: Crimea formerly part of Russia, as it has been since 39 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: seventeen eighty three until Khrushchev's mistake water supply to Crimea 40 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 1: assured Ukraine remains neutral. He also then added to this 41 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: tweet he still very much supports Ukraine, but I'm convinced 42 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: that a massive escalation of the war will cause great 43 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 1: harm to Ukraine and possibly the world. Clay, before we 44 00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 1: get into the this goes really bad, as in a 45 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:04,959 Speaker 1: nuclear strike, which is my friends, this is not fear mongering. 46 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 1: Very serious people, including that you know you would trust, 47 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 1: ideologically aligned with me, with Clay, with all of us, 48 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: see this as a possibility. Now. No one's saying it's imminent. 49 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: No one's analyzing. I'm curious for your experience if you 50 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: were analyzing probabilities, right, because we all have to think probabilistically, 51 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 1: because we don't know what Russia is going to do. 52 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:31,240 Speaker 1: What kind of odds, what kind of probability would you 53 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 1: put on Russia actually using in some form or fashion 54 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 1: a nuclear weapon if they break through into the Donbass 55 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: region and the Russians risk getting rolled up, because remember, 56 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: your greatest losses are usually taken in retreat. Right, It's 57 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: very hard if anyone who's a student of military history knows, 58 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: and first of all, in ancient battle and ancient warfare, 59 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 1: I find fascinating. Huge majority of the casualties were the 60 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 1: moment the lines broken. People run, that's when they get 61 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 1: mowed down. The same thing is it can be possible 62 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 1: in modern warfare where if there's a hasty retreat, you 63 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 1: can end up taking substantial losses, especially if the army 64 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 1: is not as the Russians at this point are not 65 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 1: very well equipped, very well organized, disciplined, and have top 66 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 1: level fighters on the front lines. I think if they 67 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 1: break through into the daun Bass region, you're looking at 68 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 1: a twenty to thirty percent chance of a tactical nuclear 69 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: weapon being used. That's I mean, so twenty to thirty 70 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 1: percent is a real probability. Like if I told you 71 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 1: right now, hey, you're about to get into a car, 72 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 1: and there's a twenty or thirty percent chance you're going 73 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 1: to get into a car accident, you'd be like, I'd 74 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: be on that east scooter real fast. Yeah, right. A 75 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: lot of people will be like, I don't need to 76 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 1: drive today, all right, So twenty or thirty percent, thirty 77 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 1: might be thirty might be high. I mean, if you're 78 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,600 Speaker 1: really you know, I'm just giving a range. Yeah, yeah, 79 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 1: A lot of people might say more like twenty. But 80 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: but it's it's realistic. I think the percentages matter, Clay, 81 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,840 Speaker 1: because it's realistic to the point where we actually have 82 00:04:57,920 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: to talk about it now. It's not something to ignore. 83 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:05,280 Speaker 1: So okay, we'll take it twenty. What I'm blown away 84 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 1: by Buck is there is then low end twenty percent 85 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: chance one in five that Joe Biden or someone advising 86 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 1: Joe Biden is going to have to figure out how 87 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 1: to respond to a potential use of tactical nuclear weapon, 88 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: which there's no I mean, you tell me if I'm wrong, 89 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: But I don't even think there's any precedent to rely 90 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 1: upon to have an idea of what we should do. 91 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 1: And not only US, certainly NATO allies, all these other 92 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 1: European countries who are certainly much closer to Russia and 93 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: probably less defended. What in the world is the response 94 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:48,719 Speaker 1: if that occurs? So Russia and he will probably have 95 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 1: heard people talk about this before. Russian military doctrine has 96 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 1: something called escalate to de escalate, which is effectively and 97 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 1: it can mean different things in different contexts. Obviously we're 98 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 1: talking about military doctrine, and as the great strategist Mike 99 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: Tyson once said, everybody has a plan until they get 100 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:10,840 Speaker 1: punched in the face. So these these are guidelines. These 101 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 1: are not hard and fast rules. But the guideline of 102 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 1: escalate to de escalate is if your territory is invaded 103 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 1: and you are on the defensive, you go nuclear to 104 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 1: then effectively stop, to blunt that advance and say all right, 105 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,480 Speaker 1: let's all calm down, let's all stop where we are 106 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:35,279 Speaker 1: a limited tactical nuclear strike. That's what escalated to the 107 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:39,599 Speaker 1: escalated is effectively. I mean it's almost like a you know, 108 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: we're talking about nuclear war here, but you know the 109 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:44,839 Speaker 1: concept of like a brush back pitch, except in this 110 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,600 Speaker 1: case you'll be a brush back pitch that has thousands 111 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 1: of casualties. It's not a multi city IICBM strike meant 112 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:55,039 Speaker 1: to kill millions of people. It's meant to say, all right, 113 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 1: you know, we're we're ready to hit you with something 114 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 1: really big here, you better step off. That's as scalate 115 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:05,360 Speaker 1: to d escalate. People are also pointing out that the 116 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 1: Russians went in the Soviet era, there was a greater 117 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: sense of if if the if the Soviets fired a nuke, 118 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 1: there were nukes all over Europe. Okay, we had placed 119 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 1: them all over Europe that they knew if they fired 120 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 1: a nuke, they were getting hit with a nuke. I 121 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 1: mean that, and it could assured destruction in the nineteen eighties, 122 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 1: and it could cause that chain reaction to to mad 123 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: mutually assured destruction. Okay, So here for example, just to 124 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: give everyone a sense of when we talk about the 125 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 1: foreign policy intelligentsia, David petres I remember I was in 126 00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 1: the Iraq office when he was the fourth star in 127 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 1: charge of Iraq, and he was a very imperious fellow. 128 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 1: So I was in the CIA's rock office when David 129 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 1: Petrayus was managing that war, and he spent a lot 130 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 1: of time cultivating allies in the press and got a 131 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: lot of anyway, that's something that you know, he was 132 00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 1: as much a politician as a four star general in 133 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 1: a lot of ways at that time. Here he is 134 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: clay on what we would do if this was just 135 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 1: an over the weekend, if they did use a tactical, 136 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 1: limited yield, limited strike nuclear weapon. You have to take 137 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 1: that seriously. And Jake Sullivan has publicly stated that the 138 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 1: US has communicated to Russia what would happen in response 139 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 1: to that, and what would happen. Well, again, I have 140 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 1: deliberately not talked to Jake about this. Yeah, I mean, 141 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 1: just to give you a hypothetical, we would respond by 142 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 1: leading a NATO a collective effort that would take out 143 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 1: every rustional confrenon conventional force that we can see and 144 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 1: identify on the battlefield Ukraine and also in Crimea and 145 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 1: every ship on the in the Black seaflot. So it 146 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 1: would bring America and NATO into the war. I mean, 147 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 1: it would be an Article five situations basically, not an 148 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: Article five because they're not part of NATO, but it 149 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 1: would be. It would be a US and NATO response. 150 00:08:55,240 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 1: He's saying, We're just going to conventionally destroy every Russian 151 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 1: military installation and target all personnel on the Black Sea 152 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:11,559 Speaker 1: and in Ukraine. What does he think the Russian response 153 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 1: to that would be? And this is where thing, folks, 154 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 1: Former CIA director, former four star general. Media loves him, 155 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 1: which is always a tell that you gotta worry. But 156 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:25,080 Speaker 1: media loves him. He had a little mishap years ago. 157 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,719 Speaker 1: Remember what the classified and the lady writing the biography 158 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 1: side note, But yeah, Clay, this is this is the 159 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 1: consensus opinion, and it should be scary to people over 160 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 1: the dun Boss. I mean, can we ask this question, 161 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 1: how much do you or I really care over who 162 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,959 Speaker 1: rules the dawn Boss region of eastern Ukraine. Zero. I'm 163 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 1: gonna be honest with you. I care zero who's in 164 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 1: charge of the dawn Buss region of Ukraine. I understand 165 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: why Ukrainians care. I understand why you would care if 166 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 1: you lived there. It impacts my life in no way. 167 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 1: Just being honest, I wouldn't want my kids go going 168 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 1: to war to fight over Ukraine border. I'd especially because 169 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 1: we don't even seem to care about the United States border. 170 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: I would rather we have spent how many hundreds of 171 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 1: billions of dollars have we sent Ukraine? Now? I would 172 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 1: have liked to have seen that money spent on our 173 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:18,079 Speaker 1: own southern border personally. But this is why I think 174 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,839 Speaker 1: this is so scary. If you and I don't think 175 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 1: it's a crazy analysis at all, there's roughly a twenty 176 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: percent chance that Putin could use a tactical, tactical nuke. 177 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 1: Does anyone out there trust Joe Biden's ability to figure 178 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 1: out what the response should be and not drag US 179 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: hamhandedly into a World War three like situation? We've sent 180 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 1: a roughly sixteen billion in change so far and direct 181 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,559 Speaker 1: military and security assistance. I thought we had sent more 182 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 1: than that, but okay, yeah, um no, that's I wanted 183 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 1: to pull up the number. I mean, that's from the 184 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: State Department. They say US military assistance has been about 185 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 1: they say fifteen point two billion, but that was as 186 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 1: of last month. We've sent billions, well let's call it 187 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: twenty billion. Roughly twenty billion dollars in one year is 188 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 1: a lot of money, obviously, and it's all gone. And 189 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 1: that's money for military hardware, that's ammunition, that's you know, 190 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 1: that's not even talking about the rebuilding, which I'm just 191 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 1: going to note. The people that have the five Ukraine 192 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:24,839 Speaker 1: flags and their bios are also going to say that 193 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,679 Speaker 1: US taxpayer dollars will be like a limited marshal plan 194 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 1: or something. We're gonna have to rebuild because even in 195 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:35,200 Speaker 1: the areas where the Ukrainians are now pushing back Russians, 196 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 1: cities are cities and towns are leveled. I mean they're 197 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 1: effectively turned a rubble. They're gone. So there'll be a 198 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:44,680 Speaker 1: massive rebuilding effort. But this brings me back to Elon 199 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 1: Musk raised the prospect of a piece. And Elon's a 200 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 1: smart guy. Yeah, he's not a global strategistic expert. But 201 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: to people who always pull that card. By the way, 202 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 1: I want to say, do these idiots think Joe Biden 203 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 1: is because he's the president? You know? Like people are 204 00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:00,199 Speaker 1: allowed to have opinions and make the case based on 205 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: the merit of what they say and not always running 206 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 1: to the credentialism form a foreign policy experts and I 207 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:08,319 Speaker 1: know them, and I've worked at their think tanks and 208 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:10,560 Speaker 1: I worked at the CIA. A lot of them are 209 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 1: among the most group think adduled, biggest jackasses on the 210 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 1: planet who never admit they're wrong. So Elon puts out 211 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 1: there this plan, Clay, did you see people? Yeah, caused 212 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:26,959 Speaker 1: a firestorm. Oh, it's like Russian propagand Okay, what is 213 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 1: their plan? Because if the plan is we keep sending newer, 214 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 1: shinier military equipment and other things to the Ukrainians, not 215 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 1: to mention whatever intelligence assistance we're giving them at other 216 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 1: things until every Russian has pulled out of every area 217 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 1: of Ukraine. Keep in mind they've been in Ukraine for 218 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 1: eight years. Now. Do we think that Vladimir Putin may 219 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 1: just say you know what, just to give a little 220 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 1: just to give a little taste of what could come here, 221 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: I'm going to fire off a tackle nuke at a 222 00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 1: concentration of Ukrainian forces and then see what the West does. 223 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 1: I don't think that's impossible. Nobody who's watching this thinks 224 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 1: it's impossible. But we're drifting toward this. Yeah. Look, and 225 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: I would say this about Elon Musk And I'm not 226 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 1: an expert in what the foreign policy backgrounds are of 227 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 1: many of these different people. But when you build multibillion 228 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 1: dollar companies, multiple of them, you've been pretty good at 229 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 1: analyzing data, risk and coming up with a plan that 230 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 1: makes sense in a highly competitive endeavor. In other words, 231 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,959 Speaker 1: what's harder to do decide that you want to become 232 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,959 Speaker 1: a foreign policy expert and get hired by a think 233 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:41,199 Speaker 1: tank or build two multibillion dollar businesses. I think almost 234 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,080 Speaker 1: everybody out there's like, you know, I'm building the multi 235 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 1: billion dollar businesses. So I would be more inclined to 236 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 1: trust the opinion of somebody who's been able to do 237 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,079 Speaker 1: that than I would to somebody who has decided to 238 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 1: be a foreign policy And Elon also sent almost one 239 00:13:55,120 --> 00:14:00,679 Speaker 1: hundred million dollars worth of gear for the Starlink satellite 240 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 1: internet system. So he's basically kept Ukraine on the web, 241 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 1: which is critical for communications, battlefield and otherwise. So I 242 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 1: think he should get a say, And as an interesting 243 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:14,560 Speaker 1: he's buying Twitter, the whole point of which is that 244 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 1: everybody can get a say. The mark, the digital marketplace 245 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 1: of ideas could soon be made real. My other thing, Clay, 246 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 1: is I wish he was happening sooner because can you 247 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 1: imagine the effect it would have on the election If 248 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 1: Twitter all of a sudden became a place where you 249 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 1: could really say what you want to say and not 250 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 1: be you know, say what you want to say about 251 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 1: COVID about elections all of a sudden, hashtags stole an election. 252 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: Won't catch you ban. We'll talk more about all this 253 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 1: coming up here, folks, in just a moment. The Tunnel 254 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: of the Towers Foundation has been supporting America's heroes and 255 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 1: their families since nine to eleven. Christopher Slotman is one 256 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 1: of those heroes. Christopher was a dedicated fifteen year FDN 257 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:52,240 Speaker 1: Y member who later became a staff sergeant in the 258 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 1: United States Marine Corps. He was serving our country in 259 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 1: Afghanistan when he was killed in action by an ied 260 00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:01,280 Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen, leaving behind his y and three young children. 261 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 1: When a first responder or military service member doesn't come 262 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 1: home and young children are left behind, Tunnel to Towers 263 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 1: pays off their mortgage to lift the financial burden and 264 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 1: bring their family stability. Christopher's family can stay in the 265 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 1: house that Christopher and his wife pick to raise their kids, 266 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: the house that the kids feel safe in, the house 267 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 1: where everyone showed up to support the family. After Christopher's death, 268 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 1: Tunnel to Towers honored his service and paid off the mortgage. 269 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 1: Thanks to you help America's heroes and their families.

Trump's statement says herschel Walker's being slandered, 283 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 1: maligned by the fake news media and obviously the Democrats. 284 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 1: I love this second sentence. Interestingly, I've heard many horrible 285 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:20,560 Speaker 1: things about his opponent, Raphael Warnock, things that nobody should 286 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: be talking about. So we don't because Warnock has got 287 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,800 Speaker 1: But anyway, just that is vintage Trump. I'm not going 288 00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 1: to talk about how awful and disgusting, and I believe 289 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 1: that rhetorical trick is called preterizio.

Part of our mission 337 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:36,199 Speaker 1: here before we get into the very high price of 338 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 1: gas and the White House, what are they gonna say? 339 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 1: I mean, the price of gas is High. They're a 340 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 1: bunch of green New Deal maniacs and we all know that. 341 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: But we'll get to that in a second, because I 342 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 1: want to remind everybody of this. Gavin Newsom just signed 343 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:56,439 Speaker 1: a bill in California that could take away the medical 344 00:19:56,480 --> 00:20:02,719 Speaker 1: licenses of doctors who spread COVID misinformation. And now, I mean, 345 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 1: I'll just put out there, for example, a doctor who says, hey, 346 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: we shouldn't have a mandatory masking policy in our office, 347 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 1: doctor's office or in the hospital, because it's stupid. That 348 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 1: would fall I would assume under Gavin Newsom's COVID misinformation policy. 349 00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:21,680 Speaker 1: So unless you go along with things that aren't true 350 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: as a doctor, that are obviously untrue, you could you 351 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 1: could lose your license to practice medicine. Which for anybody 352 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 1: that's gone through the many years of met school residency, Clay, 353 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,439 Speaker 1: I know this is something that came up. You know, 354 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 1: people that were worried about this. Buck I mentioned this 355 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:39,639 Speaker 1: on the air, and I'll reiterate it again because this 356 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:43,119 Speaker 1: is a real fear. You'll remember last year were some 357 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,359 Speaker 1: of the few that are thing to speak out against 358 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 1: masks aggressively, and I went to my local school board 359 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:52,359 Speaker 1: and all the doctors showed up still wearing their scrubs. 360 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 1: The nurses and a family friend of ours, super smart 361 00:20:56,400 --> 00:21:01,399 Speaker 1: woman multiple kids in the schools went and spoke against 362 00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 1: kids being required to wear masks and said, I am 363 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:07,240 Speaker 1: a doctor. You know, basically, I've looked at the data. 364 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 1: I don't believe it's supported. Well, I'm paraphrasing her perspective. Buck. 365 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,879 Speaker 1: The other doctors turned her in and they had a 366 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:19,439 Speaker 1: full on evaluation of her medical license because she spoke 367 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 1: at a school board and questioned the medical efficacy of 368 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 1: masks on young children, and she had to go through 369 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 1: the process. I believe she said she had never had 370 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 1: an ethics complaint in her entire medical career. Other doctors 371 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:37,240 Speaker 1: turned her in and she had to defend her medical 372 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:42,119 Speaker 1: license because she had the bravery to say what was true, 373 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 1: which is young kids do not need to wear masks. 374 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 1: And Buck, you may not remember this, but in our 375 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:52,159 Speaker 1: particular school district, it was only kids ages five to 376 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:55,960 Speaker 1: eleven that were required to wear masks because twelve and 377 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,360 Speaker 1: up at that point could get COVID shots. But these 378 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:02,160 Speaker 1: were the kids who were statistically at the lowest possible 379 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 1: risk from COVID. We know mask don't work, period. But 380 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,439 Speaker 1: that's the reality of the world in which we lived. 381 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:12,120 Speaker 1: Doctors were turning in other doctors who had a difference 382 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:15,400 Speaker 1: of opinion, even if the doctors who didn't support masks 383 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 1: actually were scientifically correct. We just want to remind everybody 384 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 1: though about this jet because first of all, they're still 385 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:27,400 Speaker 1: pretending like they should be policing COVID misinformation. A lot 386 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:30,160 Speaker 1: of what was COVID misinformation turned out to be true, 387 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:33,399 Speaker 1: and this goes to why people like Clay and me 388 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 1: do not believe in policing speech in the way that 389 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 1: the left, with the help of big tech, with the 390 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 1: help of Twitter, although I think that's gonna change pretty soon, 391 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 1: was able to do in unprecedented ways. This is just 392 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:52,400 Speaker 1: some of I had our team here pull some moments 393 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 1: in great COVID misinformation history, and you know, obscure voices 394 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 1: like Joe by In in July of twenty twenty one 395 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 1: last summer. Everybody here is what Joe Biden was saying. There, 396 00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 1: You're okay, You're you're not gonna get COVID if you 397 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 1: have these vaccinations. Everybody that I know who got vaccinated 398 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 1: without exception, every single human being that I know at 399 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:23,960 Speaker 1: this point that I can think of that, I know 400 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 1: enough that they would tell me got covid. Yea, all 401 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 1: the vaccinated people I know got covid. Okay, so we 402 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:33,000 Speaker 1: all know that. That's what will we call that? Now? 403 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,879 Speaker 1: The President saying get the shot, you won't get COVID 404 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:40,440 Speaker 1: not a little bit wrong, massively, entirely, one hundred percent wrong. 405 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:43,920 Speaker 1: It's a lie. It's objectively a lie. What he said. 406 00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:46,080 Speaker 1: Now he can say, well, at this time that wasn't 407 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 1: a lie. Today playing that what he said is a 408 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:52,399 Speaker 1: lie to the American people because it has been proven 409 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 1: one hundred percent objectively to be false. And then there's 410 00:23:55,520 --> 00:24:00,400 Speaker 1: this flashback the January fourth of twenty twenty twenty two, 411 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 1: the pandemic of the unvaccinated. There's no excuse for anyone 412 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:10,640 Speaker 1: being unvaccinated. This continues to be a pandemic of the unvaccinated, 413 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:16,440 Speaker 1: completely wrong. Again true, here's an excuse. One it doesn't work, 414 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 1: and two it doesn't stop anybody else from getting it. 415 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 1: So why do you care if somebody gets it in 416 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:24,879 Speaker 1: the first place? That's the reality everybody. If remember when 417 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 1: they were running these stories for months about you know, 418 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,680 Speaker 1: ninety nine percent of the people who are dying from 419 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 1: COVID or unvaccine that completely collapse in about February of 420 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 1: this year, when the vaccine effectiveness wore off, which we 421 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 1: all know is what happens, and then you had months 422 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:47,679 Speaker 1: where most of the people dying were vaccinated, which they 423 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 1: don't talk about it anymore. Why because again, Clay, they 424 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:54,120 Speaker 1: weren't a little wrong. They were Oh my god, how 425 00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 1: could you be so wrong? You morons? Yeah, And unfortunately 426 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:03,000 Speaker 1: Alex Berenson's continuing to do a good job of covering this. 427 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:07,159 Speaker 1: I'm concerned that the long range fallout is going to 428 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 1: be very difficult and unfortunate for lots of people who 429 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 1: got the COVID shot. In other words, I'm concerned that 430 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 1: they are going to have as a percentage more severe 431 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 1: health consequences, partly as a result of getting the COVID 432 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,160 Speaker 1: shot than if they had never done anything at all. Yeah, 433 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:27,359 Speaker 1: I mean, look, I think that there is going to 434 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:30,719 Speaker 1: be an effort to delay the research and delay as 435 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 1: much as possible. We all know this is the most 436 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 1: classic tactic for evading accountability. It's to just say, oh, 437 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 1: it's going to take more time, it's going to take 438 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 1: more time, and hope that people forget hope that the 439 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:45,480 Speaker 1: rage subsides. It just came out and they officially admit this. 440 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:51,679 Speaker 1: You were a lunatic flat earth or conspiracy theorist. If 441 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:55,640 Speaker 1: last year you were saying, I think the COVID shot 442 00:25:55,680 --> 00:26:01,679 Speaker 1: affects women's menstruation, Now they say, yes, it turns out 443 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 1: it delays a woman's period by about a day. Now 444 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 1: people might say, Okay, well they got that wrong, No 445 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:11,160 Speaker 1: big deal. People who really understand the science and really 446 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,119 Speaker 1: understand what's going on here are starting to say, hold 447 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 1: on a second. This mr NA technology may have been 448 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:22,280 Speaker 1: permeating into different parts of the body that we weren't 449 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:25,199 Speaker 1: expecting it to and had effect on parts of the 450 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,400 Speaker 1: body that we were told it would not. Is any 451 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 1: of this surprising given this was a new technology that 452 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 1: was rushed out in a year. Also, Buck, moms were told, oh, 453 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:40,440 Speaker 1: this won't pass through breastfeeding. They now know that some 454 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:44,919 Speaker 1: elements of the COVID shot do pass two babies, the 455 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 1: mRNA aspects, according to the data. We were all told 456 00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 1: that was not true. And you know, this is one 457 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 1: of the examples, Buck, where warriors would actually help if 458 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:59,640 Speaker 1: they were allowed to file lawsuits against Maderna and fizer 459 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 1: on behalf of people that have had delatarious outcomes who 460 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 1: got the COVID shot, but our government gave them complete 461 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 1: immunity so that they're all They're guarantee a profit and 462 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:17,119 Speaker 1: there are no consequences in the event as appears to 463 00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 1: be occurring that there are significant side effects and consequences 464 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 1: of the COVID shot that may be nervous from the 465 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,159 Speaker 1: get go. The government should never, in my opinion, be 466 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:31,639 Speaker 1: in the business of granting cardi blanche immunity to for 467 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:35,879 Speaker 1: profit businesses while also mandating that all of us use 468 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:41,720 Speaker 1: those businesses products. This is a cluster of epic proportions 469 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:44,200 Speaker 1: that I think is going to take years to take 470 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 1: years to resolve and fully comprehend. I'm just talking about 471 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 1: the shots themselves, not the larger COVID delatarious effects before 472 00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:55,040 Speaker 1: we even know what the true health impact of this 473 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:59,479 Speaker 1: shot is. Unfortunately, and so as we break down and 474 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 1: continue to roll to close out the show, come back 475 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 1: glad we could play that Core's Light Twins commercial, because goodness, 476 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,960 Speaker 1: I've had a lot of nuclear war COVID shots that 477 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:12,960 Speaker 1: don't work. We'll try to have a happy do you 478 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 1: have an uplifting story for us to close out the 479 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:19,879 Speaker 1: day with buck, I will maybe, well, we're gonna try 480 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:25,439 Speaker 1: to find your Galaquois. That was a great commercial. Just 481 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:29,639 Speaker 1: consider this idea. Everybody's so afraid of social media that 482 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,000 Speaker 1: they don't try to make funny commercials anymore. Was the 483 00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:35,200 Speaker 1: last time you saw a really great funny commercial? Even 484 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 1: beer companies won't do it. Listen to most political arguments 485 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 1: going on in America these days, and it's not so 486 00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 1: much policy that's best for the nation, but whether the 487 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 1: nation is worthy of praise and appreciation or whether we're 488 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 1: even have a country that we should be ashamed of. 489 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:53,240 Speaker 1: The reason for this is simple. For too many years, 490 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 1: too many people, from pundits to teachers, have presented America 491 00:28:56,160 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 1: as unjust and racist.

There are consumers now in 504 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 1: California six forty one a gallon for gas. Oregon can 505 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 1: afford that, and we understand that. That's why the President 506 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 1: works so hard at the past several months to make 507 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,640 Speaker 1: sure that he did everything we can to bring gas 508 00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:00,840 Speaker 1: prices down. We have seen fastest. I know you're pulling 509 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 1: out a couple of areas across the country, and I 510 00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:06,400 Speaker 1: get that, and we understand that there's more work to do. 511 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 1: We have never said we were done here. We have 512 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:11,920 Speaker 1: always been very clear that there is more work to do. 513 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 1: But we have seen. The reality is we have seen 514 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 1: the fastest decline in gasoline prices in over a decade. 515 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:21,120 Speaker 1: That's because of what this president has done. That's also 516 00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 1: buck because the price of gas got so high that 517 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 1: it could decline. But by the way, it is going 518 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:31,360 Speaker 1: up nationwide rapidly, all over this country as we sit 519 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 1: five weeks out from election day. Thank god we've got 520 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:39,720 Speaker 1: Peter Doocey out there continuing to fight the good fight 521 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 1: inside of the White House. You know this thing you 522 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 1: hear from the Democrats all the time. You'll notice this. 523 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,640 Speaker 1: They'll say we've got more work to do. Joe Biden 524 00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:52,720 Speaker 1: will say it, we've got more work to do. This 525 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 1: is their stand in for, yeah, we suck at our jobs, 526 00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 1: but don't fire us from them this. Let me circle 527 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 1: back around here to close out the Showbuck on herschel 528 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 1: Walker and how this is emblematic of what's going on. 529 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 1: The herschel Walker team has told me that this past 530 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: twenty four hours you can go to Teamherschel dot com. 531 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 1: That's his website, Teamherschel dot com. This past twenty four 532 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 1: hours has been the best twenty four hours of fundraising 533 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 1: that they have had essentially since he started his campaign online. 534 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 1: So increasingly, the best advertising that can actually come is 535 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:43,240 Speaker 1: left wing media going after you because it lets everybody 536 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 1: know that you matter and that they are afraid of you, 537 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:49,480 Speaker 1: and that I told I knew this was coming, Buck 538 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 1: when I opened up the newspaper on Sunday and I 539 00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 1: saw on the front page that The New York Times 540 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 1: had sent a white reporter down to Wrightsville, Georgia to 541 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 1: say that herschel Walker was not liked by black people 542 00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 1: because he wasn't black enough. I said, oh boy, they 543 00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 1: are nervous in Georgia because right now Adam Laxalt's winning 544 00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:11,959 Speaker 1: in Nevada, and I think he's going to pick up 545 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:15,840 Speaker 1: a state to pick up a seat there. Doctor Oz 546 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:19,920 Speaker 1: is back on the march. Ron Johnson is duncan all 547 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:25,080 Speaker 1: over his opponent in Wisconsin, Blake Masters. Now they got 548 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:27,360 Speaker 1: Peter Thiele coming in and spending big money for him 549 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:30,720 Speaker 1: in Arizona. And I think I mentioned it, but doctor 550 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:33,240 Speaker 1: Oz is on the comeback trail. May even be in 551 00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 1: the lead in some polls in Pennsylvania. Now the Cook 552 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 1: Political Report just took it back to toss up dead 553 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 1: even dead heat coming down the stretch. And so Democrats 554 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 1: are down in two states right now. They're down in 555 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 1: Georgia and they are down in Nevada, and they are 556 00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:54,440 Speaker 1: terrified of losing their Senate majority, and so they are 557 00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 1: going to go as nasty as they have to, not 558 00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 1: actually arguing against any of his policies, but trying to 559 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:04,560 Speaker 1: destroy herschel Walker. And I would just say to every 560 00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:08,960 Speaker 1: Georgian listening to us right now, you cannot allow Warnock 561 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 1: to steal another Senate seat for a second time. It 562 00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 1: already happened in January when Warnock beat Kelly Leffler. Leffler, 563 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 1: if I'm not mistaken right, that was her, that was 564 00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 1: that runoff. We can't allow him to do it to 565 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 1: herschel Walker two. So that's my concern. I think everybody 566 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 1: needs to go to Team herschel dot com. Donate what 567 00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:30,560 Speaker 1: you can. Democrats are running scared. Think about what a 568 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:33,280 Speaker 1: relief it will be. And we are throwing a party 569 00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 1: in Nashville so on election night, because we are we're 570 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:39,719 Speaker 1: putting our chips on big night on the table opere. 571 00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:43,640 Speaker 1: We are calling our shot here upper deck pitch coming 572 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 1: down the middle, going to be swinging the baseball, bats 573 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 1: at the ball to make it go high so into 574 00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 1: the seat, into the seats where the people are for 575 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:57,400 Speaker 1: the home run. And uh and yes, we're saying, I 576 00:33:57,440 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 1: think it's going to be a very good night for Republicans. 577 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 1: We hope. I mean, I don't believe anybody can really 578 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 1: predict the future, but the trends are on the right direction. 579 00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:07,280 Speaker 1: And the reason it's such a good it could be 580 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:11,800 Speaker 1: such a good night, is we really need a reality 581 00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:13,839 Speaker 1: check and a sanity check as a country for what's 582 00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:17,000 Speaker 1: happened the last two years. I mean, the propaganda has 583 00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 1: just been just been unhinged around COVID and around so 584 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:26,480 Speaker 1: many things with the Biden administration, the fact that we've 585 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:31,839 Speaker 1: seen the deterioration in so many parts really countrywide overall, 586 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:35,480 Speaker 1: with crime, the fact that you have buy the numbers 587 00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:38,040 Speaker 1: the worst border. We were going to do a happy 588 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:40,880 Speaker 1: story here, weren't we. I just realized that sorry, sorry, everybody, 589 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 1: you have the worst boarder. Well. But but the happy 590 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:46,879 Speaker 1: part of this is we have a chance to send 591 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:51,920 Speaker 1: a resounding message to the people in charge, to this inept, 592 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 1: incompetent White House, a message that still a majority of 593 00:34:57,239 --> 00:35:01,960 Speaker 1: the American people live in reality and expect better and 594 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,400 Speaker 1: we can have better. You know, Clay, people often ask me, 595 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 1: they say, how do we get you know, I'll see them. 596 00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:09,239 Speaker 1: I'm actually speaking this Thursday at a live event in 597 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 1: New York City, for example, the Metropolitan Republican Club. And 598 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:15,040 Speaker 1: one thing that people ask me, I'm sure they ask 599 00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:16,960 Speaker 1: you the same thing is how do we get our 600 00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:19,359 Speaker 1: country back? And the thing I always want to say 601 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,560 Speaker 1: to them is, well, for how long? The best we 602 00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 1: can hope for is to have sanity, as long as 603 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:29,280 Speaker 1: we can have it before the lunatics have a surge again, 604 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:31,759 Speaker 1: you know. And right now the best we can hope 605 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:37,759 Speaker 1: for politically is to effectively neutralize the craziest elements of 606 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:40,800 Speaker 1: the Biden left with a win in the House and 607 00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:44,440 Speaker 1: the Senate, and then gear up for something really fantastic, 608 00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:49,680 Speaker 1: a Reaganesque Republican in twenty twenty four. I agree with that, 609 00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 1: and Art Laugher made that case yesterday. He was fantastic 610 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:55,920 Speaker 1: talking about the economy. But what he pointed out is 611 00:35:55,960 --> 00:36:01,840 Speaker 1: from a political perspective, Jimmy Carter's disastrous economic policies made 612 00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:07,279 Speaker 1: Ronald Reagan possible. Well, if we believe that effectively, Joe 613 00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:10,240 Speaker 1: Biden is Jimmy Carter two point zero, just even worse 614 00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:14,439 Speaker 1: than Jimmy Carter objectively, I think that's true, then there 615 00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 1: is right now the rising tide of a Republican revolution 616 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:22,600 Speaker 1: that will begin with the Red Wave in five weeks 617 00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:25,239 Speaker 1: from today, and that Red Wave in twenty twenty two 618 00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:30,040 Speaker 1: will usher in a new modern era of Reagan politics. 619 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:33,000 Speaker 1: Maybe we can get course light commercials like in Girls again, Buck, 620 00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:35,720 Speaker 1: what is your favorite thing to go into a taco 621 00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:40,800 Speaker 1: I would go with tomatoes carnetas
