1
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:16,200
Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom huge coronavirus vaccine is approved

2
00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:20,800
Speaker 1: and on the move. Plus Abram says Democrats will win Georgia,

3
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:26,200
Speaker 1: Antifa attacks Trump marchers in DC, China's massive infiltration of

4
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:31,320
Speaker 1: UK firms by the CCP, and don't call Joe Biden doctor.

5
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:35,440
Speaker 1: This is the Bus Sexon Show, where the mission or

6
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 1: mission is to decode what really matters with actionable intelligence.

7
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:45,240
Speaker 1: Make no mistake America, Bring here a great America again.

8
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 1: The Buck Sexon Show begins the CIA analysts. Remember he's

9
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 1: a great guy. No welcome, friends to the Buck Saxon Show.

10
00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 1: We have good news today. I know it's tough to

11
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,640
Speaker 1: allow yourself even to believe it at this point. We've

12
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:06,480
Speaker 1: been through so much bad news recently, the countries in

13
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 1: the grip of this pandemic. We have more cases, more

14
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: debts in a day, in a month than we've ever

15
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:16,319
Speaker 1: had before. And we also have an election result that

16
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 1: continues to be outrageous and frustrating and rage inducing a

17
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:26,679
Speaker 1: result so far at least, and I know the Electoral

18
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: College is meeting today. So there's a lot that we

19
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 1: have to just grit our teeth for. But there is

20
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 1: this vaccine that is out there, and it is on

21
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:41,759
Speaker 1: the move, and we should all be very very pleased

22
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:45,319
Speaker 1: about this, excited about this. It will be the beginning

23
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 1: of the end of at least this wave of tyranny.

24
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: I don't want to overstate this. There are a lot

25
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 1: of people who see what has happened to this country,

26
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:58,120
Speaker 1: who see how easily cowed the US population is, and

27
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 1: they think that this can be replicated, that this can

28
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 1: be copied for other issues, other policy areas and concerns.

29
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 1: They're not going to give up. In fact, they view

30
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 1: this as the playbook going forward on a whole host

31
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 1: of issues. But let's just at least look at the

32
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:21,920
Speaker 1: vaccine right now. I still remember in February being on

33
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 1: the Bill Marshaw on HBO and being sneered at his

34
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:30,079
Speaker 1: stat laughed at because they said, Trump is saying that

35
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 1: the vaccine is going to be delivered in record speed.

36
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 1: And I said, well, they are planning to deliver it

37
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 1: in record speed. That is the planet. Oh, you're so ridiculous.

38
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:45,079
Speaker 1: Trump will never do it. Well it wasn't just then

39
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 1: and there. We've seen countless other examples of people, especially

40
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 1: when you get back into April, May and June time period,

41
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 1: or they were laughing at Trump for suggesting that operation

42
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:00,920
Speaker 1: Warp Speed. They thought the name was ridiculous. He'd never

43
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,239
Speaker 1: be able to pull this off. He's not good enough,

44
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 1: he's not smart enough, and gosh darnat people don't like him.

45
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 1: That's what they were saying. I mean, that was the whole,

46
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:14,880
Speaker 1: the whole laugh line. They had fact checkers, even they

47
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 1: had fact checkers who jumped in on this one. To

48
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 1: NBC News fact check from May fifteenth, coronavirus vaccine could

49
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 1: come this year, Trump says. Experts say he needs a

50
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 1: quote miracle to be right. Well, it looks like Trump

51
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 1: delivered a miracle because vaccines are going into people's arms

52
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 1: in this country today. Less than one year research to vile,

53
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: research to vaccination. They're actually doing it. They're getting it done,

54
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 1: and there's a lot of credit the administration should get

55
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 1: for this, but there's not really a focus on it.

56
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 1: Of course, they don't really care to have anybody really

57
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: come forward from the administration and say, hey, all of

58
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 1: our critics were wrong. That's not good. The media is

59
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 1: not going to spend any time on that. By their

60
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 1: own admission, this is a miracle. That's what they told

61
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: us by their own admission, this is a miracle, and

62
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:18,479
Speaker 1: so then we have to ask what does it mean

63
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:22,040
Speaker 1: going forward? What is the reality of this? Now there's

64
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:26,840
Speaker 1: a tremendously complicated system here to get this vaccine out.

65
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 1: I read I read about it over the weekend, and

66
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,840
Speaker 1: it's pretty incredible. I mean, this was written in the

67
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 1: Wall Street Journal. The journey starts in a factory just

68
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 1: outside Saint Louis, where Fiser scientists make the raw materials

69
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:43,600
Speaker 1: though the backbone of vaccine. Those materials move on to

70
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:48,160
Speaker 1: and over Massachusetts, where researchers turn them into mr n,

71
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 1: a molecular couriers that deliver genetic instructions to the body.

72
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:57,040
Speaker 1: The mr NA is dispatched to Michigan, where machines the

73
00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:02,280
Speaker 1: size of single car garages envelop them with lipid nanoparticles,

74
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 1: microscopic vessels used to deliver genetic material into the body.

75
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 1: Making doses takes about a week, and batches sit for

76
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 1: about two weeks before being shipped. The vaccine is transported

77
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 1: in glass vials strong enough to withstand transit and these

78
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:21,960
Speaker 1: subarctic temperatures in which the liquid must be stored. Trays

79
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,799
Speaker 1: carrying one hundred ninety five vials are packed with dry

80
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 1: ice and suitcases or suitcase like boxes weighing eighty pounds.

81
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:33,839
Speaker 1: Those vaccines eventually are diluted with enough saline solution to

82
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 1: make nine hundred and seventy five doses. So this is

83
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 1: a complicated process, and this is the most ambitious vaccination

84
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:50,320
Speaker 1: effort the world has ever seen. This is remarkable. It

85
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:56,599
Speaker 1: is a tremendous scientific achievement. And I think that it's

86
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,840
Speaker 1: a shame that we have such a focus on other

87
00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 1: things right now, and there's so much partisanship that there

88
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 1: isn't any willingness in the media to credit and administration,

89
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 1: even if they believe it is now the outgoing administration.

90
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 1: Even though the Electoral College is meeting today and it

91
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: has certified will certify Joe Biden in these states as

92
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 1: the winner. The fact is that the Trump team did

93
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,839
Speaker 1: pull off something of a miracle, and it had nothing

94
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:32,719
Speaker 1: but doubters and challengers and haters all along the way.

95
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 1: That's what was really going on here in the media.

96
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:38,720
Speaker 1: I'm talking about now, I mean, all the fact checks

97
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 1: all they'll never get this done. They're lying about this.

98
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:47,719
Speaker 1: So this is a victory that we should all celebrate.

99
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:50,360
Speaker 1: But I know it's hard to be in any kind

100
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:52,599
Speaker 1: of a celebratory mood because of what's going on in

101
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 1: the country. And this is going to take This is

102
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:58,480
Speaker 1: going to take time. In a sense, this is like

103
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:03,600
Speaker 1: the invasion at Normanity. This is the D Day landing

104
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:08,480
Speaker 1: of our fight against this vaccine. Remember after D Day,

105
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 1: there was still a lot of fighting left to do,

106
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 1: and there's a lot of people that lost their lives.

107
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 1: That's where we are right now. We've got our feet

108
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 1: on the shore at Omaha Beach. We got our feet

109
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 1: ready to go here. But this is going to take

110
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 1: ninety days before we really feel a massive effect from this.

111
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: Maybe sixty days, but something along, something along those lines.

112
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 1: And I think everybody should be prepared for a very

113
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 1: challenging December and January. We all know that. But along

114
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 1: with this vaccination process, which I just I know it's

115
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 1: about so much here and it's not really it shouldn't

116
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 1: be a political issue. But the Trump team deserves an

117
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 1: enormous wave of thanks. You know, the people that hate

118
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 1: science so much, right, that's what they always say. Trump

119
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 1: and his advisors they don't believe the science. Well somehow

120
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,640
Speaker 1: they have helped bring it to being a scientific miracle

121
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,559
Speaker 1: through operation warp speed of getting this vaccine out to people.

122
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 1: But while we're distributing this and trying to get our

123
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 1: lives back, trying to get our society back, we should

124
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 1: understand that there are those who believe that these lockdowns

125
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 1: and these restrictions on us should continue long after the

126
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 1: vaccine reaches a critical massive distribution. Now this is our

127
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 1: new normal going forward, that it's completely necessary, not even acceptable,

128
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:43,199
Speaker 1: it is necessary to have all of these lockdowns despite

129
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 1: all the data you could point to to show that

130
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 1: lockdowns are certainly insufficient on their own, and many would

131
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 1: even challenge whether they are beneficial when you look at

132
00:08:54,360 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 1: the costs versus the actual benefits of it. Bill Gates, who,

133
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 1: I don't know why we have to listen to this

134
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:07,840
Speaker 1: guy outside of how to build a microprocessor, I really don't,

135
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,400
Speaker 1: but we do because because he's really Really rich people

136
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 1: and really famous people are treated like they know things

137
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,680
Speaker 1: in this country. They're treated like their experts and whatever

138
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 1: they feel like talking about, which is a shame because

139
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:22,560
Speaker 1: they're not. But Bill Gates, who is worth I don't know,

140
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 1: over one hundred billion dollars, some absolutely astronomical and crazy

141
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 1: number he wants everyone to know that their bars, their

142
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:35,640
Speaker 1: restaurants should be closed down play too well. Certainly, mask

143
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:41,440
Speaker 1: wearing has essentially no downside. They're not expensive. Bars and

144
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,560
Speaker 1: restaurants in most of the country will be closed as

145
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: we go into this way, and I think sadly that's appropriate,

146
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 1: depending on how severe it is. The decision about schools

147
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:55,199
Speaker 1: is much more complicated because they're you know, the benefits

148
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 1: are pretty high. The amount of transmission is not the

149
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 1: same as in restaurants are so you know, trade offs

150
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:04,959
Speaker 1: will have to be made. But this the next four

151
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 1: to six months, really call on us to do our

152
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:13,480
Speaker 1: best because we can see that this will end and

153
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 1: you don't want, you know, somebody you love to be

154
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 1: the last to die of coronavirus. Notice that he won't

155
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:26,079
Speaker 1: tell you what the data really says about schools. Schools

156
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:30,679
Speaker 1: are complicated. That's the only concession that Bill Gates will make.

157
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 1: Your school closers are They're not complicated. School closers are dumb.

158
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:37,280
Speaker 1: They're not supported by the science. It's absolutely not worth

159
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 1: it to close down schools, and everybody who was advocating

160
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 1: for that at any point during this pandemic was wrong.

161
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,760
Speaker 1: They were wrong. There's not a debate on this. They

162
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,319
Speaker 1: were wrong. We have the data, We've run the experiment,

163
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 1: we have the numbers. Why won't he say that? Why

164
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,720
Speaker 1: is this guy so obsessed with controlling so many people?

165
00:10:56,240 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 1: And also his comment about masks, I completely reject. Masks

166
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:04,640
Speaker 1: are limiting your ability to breathe freely, whether you want

167
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 1: them or not. I'll put that aside for a second.

168
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 1: Let's not pretend that it's no big deal. It's very annoying.

169
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:15,679
Speaker 1: It's a restriction of your most basic freedom, the right

170
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:20,680
Speaker 1: to breathe free fresh air, more basic than anything even

171
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 1: written the Constitution. Are you allowed to breathe? Kind of

172
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 1: you breathe the way we say you breathe uncomfortably through

173
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:32,560
Speaker 1: what we tell you have to breathe through. This is moronic. Oh,

174
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 1: there's no cost associated with this whatsoever. I mean, this

175
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,439
Speaker 1: is a totalitarianism that goes beyond even the kind of

176
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 1: stuff you see in North Korea. You you're not allowed

177
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 1: to breathe the way you want to breathe. Why is that? Oh,

178
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,680
Speaker 1: because it's so effective at preventing That's why we have

179
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,160
Speaker 1: all these mask mandates all across the country, and cities

180
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 1: and states and what exactly is it done to flatten

181
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:55,680
Speaker 1: the curve? I ask you that, what has it done

182
00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:59,480
Speaker 1: to flatten the curve? Nothing? They won't admit that. They

183
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 1: won't say that. They just pretend that we can't. This

184
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:04,640
Speaker 1: is all the emperor's new clothes, friends, it's the Emperor's

185
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:07,559
Speaker 1: new mask. You're not allowed to look at what's going

186
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 1: on and say, well, maybe it works, maybe it doesn't.

187
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: You know how well it works. Whatever we can get

188
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:16,199
Speaker 1: into all that doesn't. Does a government mandate mean anything? No,

189
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 1: it does not. It does not help. Look at all

190
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:21,040
Speaker 1: the charts, look at all the graphs. I know, I'm

191
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: like a treated like a lunatic on this by the mainstream,

192
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 1: But they're wrong. I was right about schools. They were

193
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:29,960
Speaker 1: wrong about schools. Do you think they admit that. Do

194
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:31,880
Speaker 1: you think it makes any of them think, well, maybe

195
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:38,719
Speaker 1: maybe we've exaggerated the intelligence of Saint Fauci here, and

196
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 1: maybe we should rethink some of these policies. They will

197
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,439
Speaker 1: not do that. And I'm here to tell you that

198
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 1: while the vaccine is good news and it is getting

199
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 1: distributed to that certainly is cause for celebration, or at

200
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 1: least it's encouraging, right, I mean, maybe we're not in

201
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 1: a celebratory move, but it is encouraging. The Bill Gates

202
00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 1: is the globalists, the long downers, the authoritarians, the left.

203
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 1: They want this to continue for I've been saying until

204
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,559
Speaker 1: next fall, but pretty much for another year. They want

205
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 1: another year of you complying doing whatever they say. They

206
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:18,440
Speaker 1: want another year of this play one. When do you

207
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 1: think life will fully return to what we thought of

208
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 1: as normal back in January? No masks, no social distancing,

209
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:32,840
Speaker 1: no other protective measures necessary. Certainly by the summer will

210
00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 1: be way closer to normal than we are now. But

211
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 1: even through early twenty twenty two, unless we help other

212
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 1: countries get rid of this disease and we get high

213
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:48,680
Speaker 1: vaccination rates in our country, the risk of reintroduction will

214
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 1: be there. And of course the global economy will be

215
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:56,959
Speaker 1: slowed down, which hurts America economically in a pretty dramatic way.

216
00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,840
Speaker 1: So we'll have starting in the summer, about nine months

217
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 1: or a few things like big public gatherings will still

218
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:07,880
Speaker 1: be restricted. But you know, we can see now that

219
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:11,360
Speaker 1: somewhere between twelve to eighteen months and we have a chance,

220
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 1: if we manage it well, to get back to normal.

221
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 1: Why do we have to manage it well to get

222
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 1: back to normal. I just want to know what he thinks.

223
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 1: What the logic is there. We're going to get everyone

224
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,000
Speaker 1: vaccinated and then they're going to be at herd immunity.

225
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 1: That's what's going to happen, or manage it. Oh so

226
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:29,240
Speaker 1: if we don't manage it well, we never get back

227
00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 1: to normal. You'll notice they hold this out there. There

228
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 1: is this thought they have. Maybe we keep this in

229
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,600
Speaker 1: the back pocket. Maybe we use this whenever we want

230
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 1: to get people to bend the knee. Oh, COVID could

231
00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 1: come back. Oh it's in forward country. Sorry, lockdowns here,

232
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 1: your business shutdown here, do what we say. There is

233
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 1: a mass psychological conditioning here that you are a surf,

234
00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 1: that you do what the state tells you to do,

235
00:14:55,480 --> 00:15:00,320
Speaker 1: and it will continue until you tell them no, will

236
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,640
Speaker 1: not comply. And we have not reached enough of that

237
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:05,880
Speaker 1: mentality in this country yet. And it's a sad thing.

238
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 1: It's a sad thing. I usually think we were a

239
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:11,640
Speaker 1: free people that valued our liberty. Only some of us

240
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 1: are a lot of us just want to be safe

241
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 1: and warm and fed, and nothing else matters to them.

242
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 1: You're in the freedom. This is the Buck Sex and

243
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 1: Show podcast. If I wasn't president, according to almost everybody,

244
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 1: even the enemy, if I wasn't president, you wouldn't have

245
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 1: a vaccine for five years. Okay. I pushed the FDA

246
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 1: and companies and everybody else involved, like nobody's ever been

247
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:43,520
Speaker 1: pushed before, and now you have it rolling out, and frankly,

248
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:44,960
Speaker 1: they could have done it last week. They could have

249
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 1: even done it a week sooner, and they heard from me.

250
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 1: But this has been a great, a really medical mirror,

251
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 1: and they call it a medical miracle, and it's going

252
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,720
Speaker 1: to have a tremendous impact ninety five percent effect. If

253
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 1: we have Moderner coming out next week, very soon, we

254
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:02,000
Speaker 1: have Johnson and Johnson one shot vaccine coming out, all

255
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:07,320
Speaker 1: great company effective, a medical miracle. Are you seeing a

256
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:14,240
Speaker 1: lot of news coverage of all that encouraging stuff right now? No,

257
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 1: you're not, are you. It's almost like they don't want

258
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 1: to talk about it. They'll talk about the vaccine, but

259
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 1: they won't talk about the administration's role in helping the

260
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:29,360
Speaker 1: vaccine get out there. So you have this ICU nurse

261
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 1: in New York who is among the very first to

262
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 1: get the Fizer shot, right, that's what everyone. That's that's

263
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:37,479
Speaker 1: what they're talking about. I don't see anything about Operation

264
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 1: Warp Speed. I don't see anything about the Trump administration's

265
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 1: unprecedented program to get this thing out there. And let

266
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:52,200
Speaker 1: me also say that the politics around who gets the

267
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 1: vaccine and when are going to start to get very

268
00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 1: nasty here right now, there's a novelty to all this.

269
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 1: Right now, there's a sense of, oh my gosh, look

270
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:06,040
Speaker 1: the vaccine. Give it three or four weeks, and some

271
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:09,760
Speaker 1: people are going to be walking around feeling just fine.

272
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:14,040
Speaker 1: Some people are gonna walking around with no problem because

273
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:17,359
Speaker 1: they know they're almost certain to be protected from a

274
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:21,680
Speaker 1: possible exposure to COVID nineteen. And a lot of other

275
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:25,320
Speaker 1: people will be walking around saying when more likely actually

276
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:27,520
Speaker 1: stuck at home by themselves, saying when do I get

277
00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 1: this thing? And you can already hear there are a

278
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 1: lot of people that are clamoring to put this out

279
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:37,400
Speaker 1: there along along social justice lines. They say that some

280
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 1: groups are disperately affected by this, so they want them

281
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 1: to get it first by age. That certainly makes sense

282
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 1: based on all of the data, But there are plenty

283
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,520
Speaker 1: of people who you'd look at you'd say, well, it's

284
00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:56,080
Speaker 1: more about individual living condition or uncrowded area in urban area.

285
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:59,200
Speaker 1: It should not be about superficial characteristics that have nothing

286
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:02,359
Speaker 1: to do with your actual will risk of getting COVID

287
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:05,680
Speaker 1: and having a severe case of it. The politics around

288
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 1: that are going to get very, very tricky here in

289
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 1: the weeks ahead, because there are people who are going

290
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:15,840
Speaker 1: to get COVID next in the next sixty days who

291
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:17,600
Speaker 1: don't make it, who would have made it if they've

292
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 1: gotten a vaccine. And as that dawns on more and

293
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,400
Speaker 1: more people, you can imagine it's going to become even

294
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:27,560
Speaker 1: more intense. And let's just hope the supply chains and

295
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:31,280
Speaker 1: everything hold up and that there's no big problems with

296
00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:34,679
Speaker 1: the distribution of this vaccine. Thanks for listening to The

299
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,000
Speaker 1: I just want to deal in fact, because there is

300
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,760
Speaker 1: so much speculation out there and there is zero evidence

301
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 1: that Hunter Biden or Joe Biden in anything wrong here.

302
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:53,520
Speaker 1: We should note again you and I said this in

303
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,080
Speaker 1: the air many times, there is no evidence that Joe

304
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:57,119
Speaker 1: Biden was involved in any wrong doing. Of course, I

305
00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:59,400
Speaker 1: want to note that there is no evidence that Joe

306
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 1: Biden or Hunter Biden has done anything wrong. I just

307
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:04,240
Speaker 1: want to reiterate, let's be clear for the viewers. There

308
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:07,840
Speaker 1: is no evidence Biden did anything wrong. Well, again, because

309
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 1: it's important, there is no I repeat no, there is

310
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,679
Speaker 1: no evidence that either Biden did anything illegal. There has

311
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,199
Speaker 1: been no evidence, there was no evidence. There's no evidence.

312
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,240
Speaker 1: There is no evidence there, it's not an iota of

313
00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:22,399
Speaker 1: evidence anything wrong. There's really no evidence that Joe Biden

314
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 1: did anything wrong. If nobody's every accused that, I mean,

315
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 1: there's no evidence whatsoever that Joe Biden did anything wrong.

316
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 1: Got that Joe Biden did nothing wrong. Hunter Biden did

317
00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:38,600
Speaker 1: nothing wrong. Right, they're delusional and they're a bunch of liars.

318
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:45,160
Speaker 1: But what a what a symphony of frauds. Wasn't that amazing.

319
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:49,880
Speaker 1: Here's a story today on foxnews dot com. New emails

320
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:53,679
Speaker 1: appear to show Hunter Biden failed to report four hundred

321
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 1: thousand dollars in income from a shady Ukrainian firm. There's

322
00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 1: no I didn't he did anything wrong, no evidence he

323
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:06,119
Speaker 1: did it anything wrong. Hunter Biden is the most pure

324
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 1: and decent man imaginable. Yeah, the guy that got the

325
00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:12,879
Speaker 1: stripper pregnant, pretended he wasn't the dad afterwards, and he

326
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,320
Speaker 1: got kicked out of the Navy for doing coke or

327
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 1: meth or whatever. It was. Great guy, great guy. Oh yeah,

328
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:24,359
Speaker 1: Hunter Biden, he's you can take Hunters word to the bank.

329
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:32,119
Speaker 1: Really trust really trustworthy, fellow. The media is disgusting. The

330
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 1: media is a disgrace. You know it. I know it,

331
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 1: and I think it's important that we all understand that

332
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:42,240
Speaker 1: they're not going to change. In fact, they're just going

333
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:47,200
Speaker 1: to become more aggressive under a Biden presidency. They're going

334
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 1: to stifle this sent They're not going to try to

335
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:51,359
Speaker 1: win the argument anymore. They're going to prevent you from

336
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 1: being able to make an argument. They're gonna try to

337
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 1: shut down people like me who will beat them in

338
00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 1: the argument. They won't allow it. That's going to be

339
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:02,919
Speaker 1: the game. It's it's not oh, may the best, may

340
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 1: the best pundit or news channel or show or whatever win.

341
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:07,200
Speaker 1: It's going to be no, No, we're on air. You're

342
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:10,440
Speaker 1: not because the people that control the plugs and the

343
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:13,679
Speaker 1: switches and the you know, the internet and the cable channels,

344
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 1: they're not letting you on that's the game they plan

345
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:20,560
Speaker 1: on playing, full on censorship. They talked about state media

346
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:22,720
Speaker 1: against Trump. They're a bunch of morons. There's no state

347
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:26,480
Speaker 1: media when ninety five percent of the media opposes the

348
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 1: sitting president. But notice that they in a sense, and

349
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:35,239
Speaker 1: I know this is not comforting to hear, but they

350
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 1: were successful in their lives. They were successful in what

351
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 1: they were trying to achieve here, preventing us from figuring

352
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:49,240
Speaker 1: out what really happened, at least in time for the election.

353
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:53,200
Speaker 1: That's what mattered. It was all about when this would break.

354
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 1: It was all about who and who would find out

355
00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:59,640
Speaker 1: about this? At what point would they find out about this? Right?

356
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:04,680
Speaker 1: And Hunter Biden was able to count on the media

357
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:10,440
Speaker 1: to give him the kind of the kind of unbelievable,

358
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:15,200
Speaker 1: unbelievable protection from the mainstream media that you could only

359
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,840
Speaker 1: expect if you're a Democrat. That's really important to their movement.

360
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:20,840
Speaker 1: I mean, if you didn't report four hundred thousand dollars

361
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:22,600
Speaker 1: an income, I mean, that's that's the kind of thing

362
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,920
Speaker 1: that even the irs under a Democrat administration would normally

363
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:29,200
Speaker 1: pay attention to. But does anyone really believe does anyone

364
00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:32,400
Speaker 1: really think that Hunter Biden would face any will face

365
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 1: any consequences under a Biden administration for this whatsoever. No,

366
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:38,720
Speaker 1: of course not. The people who have been lecturing you

367
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 1: for four years about norms and decency and democracy, about

368
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 1: the rule of law are the same people who lied

369
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:50,040
Speaker 1: about Russia collusion from the beginning of the Trump presidency,

370
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:52,680
Speaker 1: used it as a weapon against Trump and all of

371
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:56,399
Speaker 1: his advisors and family members and everyone around him, and

372
00:22:56,680 --> 00:23:01,960
Speaker 1: now are going to completely lock down with nothing but

373
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:07,400
Speaker 1: partisan intent, locked down anything the dj is looking at

374
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:11,359
Speaker 1: about Hunter Biden or anything else for that matter, that

375
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:15,160
Speaker 1: harms Democrat interests. That's their plan, That's what they're going

376
00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 1: to do. I mean, the suppression of the Hunter Biden

377
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:26,160
Speaker 1: media story is something that well, we should never forget.

378
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:30,439
Speaker 1: In the same way that the attacks on Brett Kavanaugh.

379
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:35,760
Speaker 1: The attacks on Brett Kavanaugh were a moment of clarity

380
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 1: about who the Democrats really are that they would lie

381
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 1: about somebody. There was such a lack of decency and

382
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:45,520
Speaker 1: honor and integrity at the very top of the Democrat

383
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,960
Speaker 1: Party that they would say the things they said and

384
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:52,400
Speaker 1: present the things they did against Brett Kavanaugh, a good

385
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:55,639
Speaker 1: man who had done nothing wrong. Not only was he

386
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,359
Speaker 1: not a bad guy. He was a good guy, and

387
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:00,520
Speaker 1: they tried to ruin him. They tried to ruin him.

388
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 1: No remorse about a Kamala was one of them. Don't

389
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 1: ever forget that. I mean, she's ruthless, utterly ruthless, a

390
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 1: Disgrace's a mediocrity who's playing the system, using identity politics,

391
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,920
Speaker 1: using the Democrat power structure. I don't mean the Democrat

392
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:20,960
Speaker 1: as in our democracy or whatever. I mean the Democrat Party.

393
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:26,160
Speaker 1: Kamal is very ruthless. Indeed, but what we saw with Kavanaugh,

394
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:31,119
Speaker 1: now you should view what's gone on here with the

395
00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 1: media as a Kavanaugh like moment. They will, in the

396
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:38,680
Speaker 1: weeks before a presidential election straight up lie to your

397
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:43,920
Speaker 1: faces without a moment's hesitation. They will lie right to

398
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 1: your face about an issue of major national news concern.

399
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 1: And afterwards, when they're exposed as frauds and liars for that,

400
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,879
Speaker 1: they think of themselves as heroes because their purpose is

401
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:04,159
Speaker 1: not to inform you. Their purpose is to influence you

402
00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,879
Speaker 1: for the benefit of a political party, the Democrat Party.

403
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 1: That is what they are doing. Now it's not enough

404
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:15,920
Speaker 1: to just point this out. We have to be very

405
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:21,240
Speaker 1: clear that there are there are fights ahead, and I have,

406
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:26,880
Speaker 1: you know, substantial concerns about where all this stuff is going.

407
00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:32,920
Speaker 1: All right, here is here is Stacy Abrams. This Georgia

408
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 1: election is weeks away. And remember the last two weeks

409
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:40,960
Speaker 1: of December. For a lot of people, including journos, the

410
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:42,920
Speaker 1: last two weeks of December, there's not going to be

411
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,200
Speaker 1: a whole lot of focus on anything in the news cycle.

412
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:48,239
Speaker 1: No one's really going to pay much attention. And then

413
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:49,840
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you're going to come back. A

414
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,359
Speaker 1: lot of people come back from vacation. There's going to

415
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:57,920
Speaker 1: be a Georgia Senate runoff for two seats. Right, Georgia

416
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 1: is having this runoff, two seats at play, and you

417
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:07,440
Speaker 1: got Warnock, Leffler, Perdue Assoff. Which names are going to

418
00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:11,240
Speaker 1: come out victorious of this thing? Stacy Abrams, the make

419
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:15,680
Speaker 1: believe governor of Georgia. It is out there rallying her

420
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:18,359
Speaker 1: side and she's speaking with a lot of confidence about

421
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,600
Speaker 1: this place. Sixteen Democrats are prepared to win this election

422
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:24,240
Speaker 1: because this is the first runoff where we have the

423
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:27,159
Speaker 1: level of investment and engagement that it takes to win

424
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,879
Speaker 1: a runoff. We know from the numbers that we're in

425
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:33,240
Speaker 1: a good place. One point two million absentee ballots have

426
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:36,399
Speaker 1: been requested thus far, and just to put that into context,

427
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:38,920
Speaker 1: one point three million or requested for all of the

428
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:42,080
Speaker 1: general election. And of that one point two million, eighty

429
00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:45,480
Speaker 1: five thousand of those applications are from voters who did

430
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:48,679
Speaker 1: not vote in the general election, and they are disproportionately

431
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,680
Speaker 1: between the ages of eighteen and twenty nine, and disproportionately

432
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:54,240
Speaker 1: people of color. With that signals is that there's an

433
00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:58,199
Speaker 1: enthusiasm for John Ossoff and Raphael Warnock, and its signals

434
00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,879
Speaker 1: that we understand that we make need to make a

435
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:05,119
Speaker 1: plan to vote and deliver this election. Look, millions of

436
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:09,199
Speaker 1: you are understandably furious about where we are right now

437
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:13,120
Speaker 1: in the presidential election. I understand that it all feels wrong.

438
00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 1: Electoral College is meeting today to certify a result that

439
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:21,440
Speaker 1: you think, in your soul, you know is just unfair.

440
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:25,400
Speaker 1: It's wrong. The Democrats changed the election rules in bad faith.

441
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:29,400
Speaker 1: There are hundreds of sworn affidavits alleging fraud. And there's

442
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:32,080
Speaker 1: this seething rage that we should all have that the

443
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 1: media openly and aggressively stifled information about Hunter Biden. So

444
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:42,520
Speaker 1: Joe could win. Yes, the media rigged the game, but

445
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:44,679
Speaker 1: the game is not over. And I don't just mean

446
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:48,600
Speaker 1: in the presidential election. We've got to win in Georgia.

447
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 1: I've actually got a piece up on bucksexton dot com

448
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:54,880
Speaker 1: on this that you should all check out. I wrote

449
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:57,399
Speaker 1: an editorial on it because I'm trying to make the

450
00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:00,960
Speaker 1: case to you that it is not true that we

451
00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:05,800
Speaker 1: are losing focus on the presidential fight and exposing fraud

452
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:09,120
Speaker 1: if we also give all due attention to winning these

453
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:14,240
Speaker 1: Georgia Senate seats. It has to happen, because what goes

454
00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:17,840
Speaker 1: on if we lose this. If we lose and they

455
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 1: have a Democrat majority in the Senate, well, first they'll

456
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 1: eliminate the Filibus or then they'll move for expanded amnesty

457
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:25,879
Speaker 1: for illegal aliens. You know, they already have a surge

458
00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 1: at the border going on right now. Why do you

459
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:31,920
Speaker 1: think that is people who are focused on this issue,

460
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:33,880
Speaker 1: who want to get into the country and stay here illegally.

461
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:38,360
Speaker 1: They know you're probably never going to have a better time.

462
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:40,760
Speaker 1: There's never going to be a better option for you

463
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:42,560
Speaker 1: to come into the country illegally, and right before a

464
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,720
Speaker 1: Bide administration, that's going to be pushing for amnesty, because

465
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:47,920
Speaker 1: even if you're not covered by that amnesty, do you

466
00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:51,880
Speaker 1: think there'll be any real will to do deportations. No,

467
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,840
Speaker 1: if you can get here, you'll be able to stay here.

468
00:28:56,360 --> 00:29:00,080
Speaker 1: So they move for eventually be legalization for everyone the

469
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:02,920
Speaker 1: US illegally, they'll add to that statehood for DC in

470
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,800
Speaker 1: Puerto Rico. Some Supreme Court packing could also happen. All

471
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,240
Speaker 1: it feels like they don't need it these days. Look

472
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:12,280
Speaker 1: at the Texas decision. Texas brought suit, many states joined

473
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:16,840
Speaker 1: with Texas shot down by the Supreme Court. Trump is

474
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:23,280
Speaker 1: out there tweeting about how no judge has the courage. Right,

475
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 1: that's what he's saying, No judge has the courage. What

476
00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:28,400
Speaker 1: did I tell you all along? And I don't like

477
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 1: saying things that I know are going to be frustrated

478
00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 1: to hear, but I have to tell you the truth.

479
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 1: I have to tell you what I know is coming

480
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 1: judges all along, I had said, who's going to be

481
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:40,720
Speaker 1: the judge who wants to be attacked by the Democrats

482
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:45,480
Speaker 1: and the left for even giving an opening for this

483
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:48,920
Speaker 1: to be overturned because of all the fraud. I just

484
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 1: don't think they have the courage That's not me saying

485
00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:54,000
Speaker 1: I don't care that they don't have the courage. That's

486
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 1: me saying, this is the reality that we face. And

487
00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:01,400
Speaker 1: that's what Trump is saying about these judges, include supposedly

488
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 1: conservative justices. They're saying, nah, we can't, we can't touch

489
00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:11,800
Speaker 1: this thing. Sorry, can't get involved. So we absolutely absolutely

490
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 1: need to focus in on this Georgia election and do

491
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 1: everything that we possibly can to make sure that the

492
00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 1: Senate is in Republican control going into a Biden administration,

493
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:27,000
Speaker 1: because right now it would it would take something of

494
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 1: a legal miracle to prevent the Biden administration from happening.

495
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,680
Speaker 1: We all, we all need to know that. That's that's

496
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 1: where this is heading. Not saying it's over, but I'm

497
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,480
Speaker 1: saying it's not looking good. We're down two touchdowns and

498
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,800
Speaker 1: there's you know, a minute thirty left. That's where that's

499
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:45,880
Speaker 1: where the situation is. And I'm gonna say this to you.

500
00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:48,040
Speaker 1: And even who tells you otherwise right now is not

501
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 1: being straight with you. They're not being honest with you.

502
00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:53,720
Speaker 1: You know, there's a lot of telling people what they

503
00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:56,280
Speaker 1: want to hear right now, and I don't want to

504
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:58,720
Speaker 1: be a part of that. And have our I taken

505
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:02,240
Speaker 1: off the ball in Georgia because some people are squabbling

506
00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:05,560
Speaker 1: for whatever remnants of the Trump movement they can sort

507
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:08,160
Speaker 1: of gather up for themselves in their eyes. I think

508
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:11,520
Speaker 1: that's the play. There are people now who are doubling

509
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:13,840
Speaker 1: and tripling down and how oh, don't worry. You know

510
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,960
Speaker 1: the plan and we're gonna win. And there was a

511
00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:18,840
Speaker 1: there was a chance, there was a time we were

512
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:21,280
Speaker 1: having that fight. And yes, we see it through to

513
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 1: the end. But anyone is telling you that it's looking

514
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 1: good right now is lying to you. They're lying to

515
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:32,240
Speaker 1: you right and putting too many people on air who

516
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:34,600
Speaker 1: are going to tell you that on their air, on

517
00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:38,840
Speaker 1: their show. There's also a dishonesty in that, right. Yeah,

518
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,040
Speaker 1: I could bring endless amounts of people. Look, I think

519
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:45,560
Speaker 1: Sean Parnell's legal challenge in Pennsylvania it is legitimate. I

520
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 1: think he's right, and I think he's got a shot.

521
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 1: That's why I put Sean on the air. But if

522
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:51,720
Speaker 1: you're asking me how I think this is going to

523
00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:55,480
Speaker 1: go for the election overall, meaning whether or not this

524
00:31:55,640 --> 00:32:00,440
Speaker 1: thing is pretty much over and done with. We're close,

525
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:02,920
Speaker 1: and people get get mad at me that's fine. I

526
00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:04,520
Speaker 1: don't know why they're mad at me. I was saying

527
00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:07,200
Speaker 1: fight all along. I was saying, this is where we

528
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:11,160
Speaker 1: need to be, dig in, do everything we can. But

529
00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:15,240
Speaker 1: at some point, you know, sometimes you fight and do

530
00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:17,000
Speaker 1: you give it everything again and you still don't end

531
00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:20,800
Speaker 1: up getting the result. That would be justice. That's life.

532
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:24,800
Speaker 1: That's where we are. So I just rather you hear

533
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 1: that at this point from me than have me pretend

534
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 1: like everything's fine, which I would not do. And then

535
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,960
Speaker 1: in January, when Biden's a week out from being sworn in,

536
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 1: say yeah, you know, I guess, I guess maybe it

537
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 1: is going to happen. You know, we should prepare now

538
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,680
Speaker 1: for that possibility. Doesn't mean that we give up, but

539
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 1: it means we are being smart and strategic, and part

540
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 1: of that means winning in Georgia. All right. The response

541
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,080
Speaker 1: to losing Paris to the Germans, if you're the Allies,

542
00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:59,120
Speaker 1: is not to say, let's hand them London. And that's

543
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:02,960
Speaker 1: what giving them Georgia would be right now, a disaster.

544
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:06,280
Speaker 1: So we continue the fight and we understand where we

545
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:11,920
Speaker 1: are in this process. You're in the freedom mind. This

546
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:19,400
Speaker 1: is the Buck Sexton Show podcast, y'all, got a twelve check,

547
00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:23,240
Speaker 1: Wall Street got four trillion in access to liquid funds,

548
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:30,959
Speaker 1: and and that to me, just structurally, Will I'm concerned.

549
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:35,200
Speaker 1: What keeps me up at night is that it was

550
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 1: short term relief that was really important and really necessary,

551
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:42,840
Speaker 1: but that the help for working people and everyday people,

552
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:46,320
Speaker 1: as we know, drives up super fast. But what we

553
00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:51,560
Speaker 1: gave away, what we gave away to Wall Street was

554
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:56,600
Speaker 1: so large and so structural that frankly like, that's why

555
00:33:56,720 --> 00:34:01,000
Speaker 1: Republicans I think have not been have been, you know,

556
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:04,600
Speaker 1: not as and why Mitch McConnell has not been in

557
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,920
Speaker 1: a rush. Mitch McConnell has been in a rush. This

558
00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:11,840
Speaker 1: is complete rewriting of history from AOC who is an idiot,

559
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:16,600
Speaker 1: but a dangerous and powerful little propagandist for the ignorant left. No,

560
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:20,800
Speaker 1: Mitch is the one who has been pushing for COVID relief.

561
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:25,040
Speaker 1: Pelosi blocked it. They can try to rewrite the history

562
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:27,000
Speaker 1: as much as they want. It won't change what actually

563
00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 1: happened here. Pelosi blocked it. Said no, we want more.

564
00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:36,239
Speaker 1: He brings up Wall Street. This is something we have

565
00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:38,440
Speaker 1: got to change. We have got to We've got to

566
00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:43,800
Speaker 1: get the public to understand this. Wall Street is dominated

567
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:50,440
Speaker 1: by Democrats, by Lib Democrats. The Wall Street banks, Goldman

568
00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:54,400
Speaker 1: Sachs is practically a d NC pack in terms of

569
00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:57,640
Speaker 1: the way that it spends money in elections. It through

570
00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:01,279
Speaker 1: of all these big investment banks, because this is the game.

571
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:05,840
Speaker 1: The Amazons, the Goldman Sachs, the mega corporations, the global is,

572
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:09,280
Speaker 1: the internationalists. They are rich and getting richer, and government

573
00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:13,799
Speaker 1: policy from big government action continues to benefit them. They

574
00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 1: like the anti competitive nature of all the endless regulation

575
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:19,439
Speaker 1: and the ability of government to come in and shut

576
00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:22,720
Speaker 1: down their competitors. Look what's going on during COVID. Small

577
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:27,279
Speaker 1: business is just getting wiped out. But Wall Street is

578
00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:32,040
Speaker 1: This is a myth. This is a fable that Wall

579
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:35,920
Speaker 1: Street is Republican. Wall Street is absolutely not. I live

580
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,759
Speaker 1: in New York City. I come from a family with

581
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:42,200
Speaker 1: a dad who worked on Wall Street for decades. I

582
00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:45,680
Speaker 1: got brothers, I got friends that are Wall Street people

583
00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:50,879
Speaker 1: worked in Wall Street. Wall Street is Democrats. Okay, not all,

584
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:55,560
Speaker 1: but it is a huge majority of the giving went

585
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:59,080
Speaker 1: to Joe Biden. So this is I just hate this

586
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:03,920
Speaker 1: because somehow the perception lingers and AOC will sit there

587
00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:07,520
Speaker 1: when she's when she's trashing Wall Street. This is a

588
00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:11,239
Speaker 1: way to avoid criticism of Democrat policy and people. Yeah,

589
00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:14,440
Speaker 1: Wall Streets so bad. Oh, those rich fat cats, those

590
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:18,479
Speaker 1: are Democrats. Those are people on Wall Streets are writing

591
00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 1: checks to Diane Feinstein and Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi

592
00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:26,640
Speaker 1: and and you know the AOC types, even of a

593
00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:29,280
Speaker 1: little less so they like more of the establishment Democrats,

594
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:32,400
Speaker 1: to be fair, but they're the ones writing chest to Democrats.

595
00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:37,800
Speaker 1: I just I this drives me nuts because there's this

596
00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:41,360
Speaker 1: is all media perceptions, all media propaganda. Wall Streets a

597
00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:45,400
Speaker 1: bunch of rich, white male Republicans. That's what Wall Street

598
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:47,520
Speaker 1: is Wall Street. You go to any of these big

599
00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:50,759
Speaker 1: banks now, they've got all the Diversity Days stuff going on,

600
00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:56,319
Speaker 1: they're all about transgender rights, they've got super progressive HR policies,

601
00:36:56,600 --> 00:37:00,640
Speaker 1: and they're giving their funneling money, funneling money to Democrats.

602
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:02,960
Speaker 1: Just check this is this is public record stuff. You

603
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:05,000
Speaker 1: don't even have to dig my word very good. Check online.

604
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:09,440
Speaker 1: You'll see who does Goldman Sachs give money to Democrats?

605
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:15,880
Speaker 1: People like Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton? Who these these enormous banks.

606
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 1: And in some ways it's ideological because you have these

607
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:23,880
Speaker 1: guilty conscience, rich libs who work on Wall Street and

608
00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:26,399
Speaker 1: they think, oh, you know, I'm I'm getting paid all

609
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:29,480
Speaker 1: this money. What am I even really doing that's a productive,

610
00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:33,279
Speaker 1: additive function for society? Or am I just in the

611
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:38,120
Speaker 1: extraction business? Extract from the system, position and extract, you know.

612
00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:40,400
Speaker 1: So a way that they like to handle with that,

613
00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 1: A way they like to handle that is to give

614
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:48,759
Speaker 1: money to very progressive causes and very progressive candidates. It's

615
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:53,560
Speaker 1: it's like buying a form of social insurance. That's really

616
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:57,320
Speaker 1: what they're doing, buying a form of social insurance. You know.

617
00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:00,280
Speaker 1: Now they can say, oh, well, I gave to Joe Biden,

618
00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:03,799
Speaker 1: so hopefully no one is gonna, you know, mask up

619
00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:06,239
Speaker 1: and don't worry about the fact that I'm in my

620
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:08,440
Speaker 1: ten million dollar house in the Hampton's because I gave

621
00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:11,320
Speaker 1: money to Joe Biden. This is what they do. This

622
00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:13,440
Speaker 1: is this is how they get away with this stuff.

623
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:16,320
Speaker 1: But they support the right candidate. They're just part of

624
00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:21,000
Speaker 1: the system. They're just part of using and leveraging where

625
00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:22,840
Speaker 1: they are in a system and pretending they care so

626
00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:26,920
Speaker 1: much about the poor. These these Wall Street democrats, these

627
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,480
Speaker 1: fat cat hedge fund billionaires, they don't give a crap

628
00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:32,480
Speaker 1: about the poor. I mean, yeah, they'll write a check

629
00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:33,800
Speaker 1: a few times of years. They can go to a

630
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:36,400
Speaker 1: fancy gallow or something. There's a lot of that that

631
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:38,319
Speaker 1: goes on in New York City too, not not really

632
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:42,799
Speaker 1: so much anymore, but there was before COVID. But it's

633
00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:46,520
Speaker 1: it's remarkable. This, this is a lie that will not die.

634
00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:52,359
Speaker 1: Wall Street is dominated by Democrats. It is the ideology

635
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:56,239
Speaker 1: now of Wall Street. You know, it's all these big

636
00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,440
Speaker 1: mega corporations or what is what's you know, pushing the

637
00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:03,360
Speaker 1: stock market to all time highs. There's a tremendous amount

638
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:07,719
Speaker 1: of government policy and monetary policy that goes into how

639
00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:10,640
Speaker 1: well all this stuff works or doesn't work. And they

640
00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:12,920
Speaker 1: want to be at the levels of power so any

641
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:16,440
Speaker 1: and just this really it really bothers me because it's

642
00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:18,239
Speaker 1: so easy. If an AOC will do this, you'll talk

643
00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:21,319
Speaker 1: about this, and so many other Democrats will too. They

644
00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:24,800
Speaker 1: act like the Democrats are the party of working people. Know,

645
00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:27,000
Speaker 1: the Democrats are the party of people on welfare. That

646
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:30,480
Speaker 1: is true, Democrats always want to increase welfare benefits, but

647
00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:36,279
Speaker 1: people who work for a living are increasingly represented by

648
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:41,080
Speaker 1: the Trump era Republican Party and everyone seeing it and

649
00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:44,359
Speaker 1: that the numbers are bearing this out. You know, it's

650
00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:46,880
Speaker 1: people that either benefited from the system and got a

651
00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:51,400
Speaker 1: you know, a fancy four year degree somewhere and have

652
00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:54,240
Speaker 1: gotten themselves into a into a place in our economy

653
00:39:54,239 --> 00:39:56,320
Speaker 1: where they can work from home and they're all comfortable

654
00:39:56,360 --> 00:40:00,200
Speaker 1: and fine. Yeah, they're Democrats and they want to you know,

655
00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:02,920
Speaker 1: push more of a pittance, you know, they want to

656
00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:07,320
Speaker 1: give a little bit more charity to people who aren't working,

657
00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:10,759
Speaker 1: to people who need assistance. But stunning, what we see

658
00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:13,680
Speaker 1: happening here really is the lie about this will not stop.

659
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:17,880
Speaker 1: Thanks for listening to The Bus Sesson Show podcasts. Remember

660
00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:21,239
Speaker 1: to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeart Radio app, or

661
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:25,319
Speaker 1: wherever you get your podcasts. Well, first of all, Chris,

662
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:28,080
Speaker 1: the plan is alive and well, and there's no way,

663
00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:32,080
Speaker 1: no way that we're gonna leave Washington without taking care

664
00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:34,279
Speaker 1: of the emergency needs of our people. And that's all

665
00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:36,719
Speaker 1: over our country and my stay to West Virginia too.

666
00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:42,319
Speaker 1: They're all hurting everywhere. So they're telling us that they're

667
00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:46,040
Speaker 1: going to get COVID relief out there. I don't know

668
00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:50,320
Speaker 1: if that's going to happen, which is just a total

669
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:56,120
Speaker 1: failure on the part of our elected officials, Nancy Pelosi,

670
00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:58,200
Speaker 1: the Democrats to the one who've been blocking it for months.

671
00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:01,799
Speaker 1: But I mean, come on, now, you know we've got

672
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:05,680
Speaker 1: a inauguration day coming up here, You've got a new

673
00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:11,400
Speaker 1: administration likely to be in charge very soon. Can we

674
00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:15,280
Speaker 1: please please do what is necessary to help the American

675
00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:18,560
Speaker 1: people right now during this pandemic and we just get

676
00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:22,160
Speaker 1: something here out to people who have had their businesses

677
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:27,160
Speaker 1: shut down, who have been told that they have no

678
00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:30,160
Speaker 1: choice in the matter, and now they can't pay their bills,

679
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:34,399
Speaker 1: and now they're perhaps either living on credit or they've

680
00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:38,719
Speaker 1: they've run out of whatever the savings they've had, They've

681
00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:41,600
Speaker 1: had to lay off employees. And this is because of

682
00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:44,440
Speaker 1: government mandates. It's not because of the market. It's not

683
00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:46,919
Speaker 1: because of a downturner. And this is the government saying,

684
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:51,360
Speaker 1: and I think unnecessarily, saying, your restaurant, your bar, cannot

685
00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:55,200
Speaker 1: be open anymore. You know, isn't it remarkable we have

686
00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:57,480
Speaker 1: all these restrictions that are put in place at different times,

687
00:41:57,960 --> 00:42:00,480
Speaker 1: but then when cases go up, it's like we are

688
00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:05,440
Speaker 1: the game all of a sudden is Okay, cases have

689
00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:10,200
Speaker 1: gone up and all the stuff that we were doing

690
00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:13,560
Speaker 1: was apparently not enough. Well, then how well could it

691
00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:16,799
Speaker 1: possibly have been working. I never get an answer from

692
00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:19,680
Speaker 1: anybody on this one. But if if we're masking and

693
00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:23,800
Speaker 1: social distancing and limiting the number of people in these establishments,

694
00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:29,080
Speaker 1: we're doing all those things, then case number in general,

695
00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:31,920
Speaker 1: not even from that place or from that industry, goes up.

696
00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:34,680
Speaker 1: They say, sorry, we gotta lock it down anyway. So

697
00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:36,759
Speaker 1: is that an admission that all those other things don't

698
00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:40,959
Speaker 1: really work? What does work mean? If it's a five

699
00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:43,719
Speaker 1: percent reduction and transmission for all that crap, is it

700
00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:46,520
Speaker 1: still worth it or is it more like a fifty

701
00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:49,759
Speaker 1: percent reduction? They have no idea. We're making decisions all

702
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:51,799
Speaker 1: the time that they say are based on data. I mean,

703
00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:53,759
Speaker 1: I can tell you this, if I had the opportunity

704
00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:57,560
Speaker 1: to question doctor Fauci, If I got to sit in

705
00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:01,520
Speaker 1: a senator's chair for a second, or sit as a

706
00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:04,120
Speaker 1: member of Congress, and they just give me as their

707
00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:06,439
Speaker 1: proxy let me question doctor Fauci, the whole thing would

708
00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:08,800
Speaker 1: fall apart. You realize what a what a preposterous and

709
00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:13,239
Speaker 1: absurd situation we're all in now At these people who

710
00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:15,640
Speaker 1: keep saying that it's the data, and then you ask

711
00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:17,440
Speaker 1: them you find out there's no data behind this. They

712
00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:19,520
Speaker 1: have no idea. There's making up as they go along,

713
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:22,480
Speaker 1: a lot of it. I mean, yeah, there's a lot

714
00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:24,399
Speaker 1: of cases and a lot of deaths right now, there's

715
00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:27,840
Speaker 1: that data. But in terms of the transmission risk, in

716
00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:31,760
Speaker 1: terms of the reduction you get from these different choices,

717
00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:39,960
Speaker 1: absolutely not. I have no no idea. Now now we

718
00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:41,560
Speaker 1: have to talk about a little bit more of this,

719
00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:46,279
Speaker 1: the legal challenges to the election. I don't want to

720
00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:50,160
Speaker 1: avoid this. First of all. I I don't understand how

721
00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:53,920
Speaker 1: anyone could see this as anything other than the system

722
00:43:54,080 --> 00:44:00,920
Speaker 1: operating all within the guidelines, the rules, the constitutional, constitutional

723
00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:07,440
Speaker 1: limitations and demands. Here, everything is proceeding exactly on schedule.

724
00:44:08,120 --> 00:44:11,080
Speaker 1: There's nothing the Trump team or anyone in favor of

725
00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:15,120
Speaker 1: Trump has done that is a break in the rules.

726
00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:19,719
Speaker 1: There's no abuse in power here. They're saying that they

727
00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:23,200
Speaker 1: have legal theories that go into a very complicated, very

728
00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:27,120
Speaker 1: They go to a very complicated, very difficult year here

729
00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:30,160
Speaker 1: in what's gone on with the law, and they're bringing

730
00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:36,080
Speaker 1: these challenges and for some reason, Republicans like Chris Christie

731
00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:40,239
Speaker 1: seem to be out there getting ahead of all this,

732
00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:42,200
Speaker 1: as if we need to hear from them right now,

733
00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:46,319
Speaker 1: as if they have to be a smug and dismissive

734
00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:49,239
Speaker 1: about all of this. I mean, here he is play nine.

735
00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:52,399
Speaker 1: This is why I think the Republican Party will move

736
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:55,480
Speaker 1: on and move on briskly after the inauguration, because there's

737
00:44:55,480 --> 00:44:57,600
Speaker 1: a lot of good things to move on from. You know,

738
00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:00,960
Speaker 1: picked up fourteenth seats in the House appears, I think,

739
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:03,960
Speaker 1: totally lose one seat in the Senate ultimately and keep control.

740
00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:07,920
Speaker 1: Flip to state legislatures, flip the only governorship that was

741
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:11,120
Speaker 1: flipped on election night. Except for the very top of

742
00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:13,400
Speaker 1: the ticket. The Republican Party had a great night on

743
00:45:13,520 --> 00:45:16,560
Speaker 1: election night. Now a Sadia, I was disappointed that the

744
00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:19,880
Speaker 1: president lost, and I understand the disappointment the party amongst

745
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:22,759
Speaker 1: some people for losing that election, but we need to

746
00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:26,359
Speaker 1: face the facts. Elections have consequences, and in the same way,

747
00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:30,879
Speaker 1: Democrats were horribly disappointed by Donald Trump's victory four years

748
00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:34,640
Speaker 1: ago over Hillary Clinton in what was actually a closer

749
00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:37,840
Speaker 1: election than this one from a popular vote perspective, in

750
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:41,960
Speaker 1: the same margin from an electoral college perspective, Republicans now

751
00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:44,760
Speaker 1: need to say thank you, mister president, for your service,

752
00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:46,839
Speaker 1: thank you for the good things you did while you're

753
00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:49,000
Speaker 1: in office that we agree with, and we now need

754
00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:52,239
Speaker 1: to move on. What does that mean? Why do we

755
00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:57,200
Speaker 1: have to say those things? Chris Christie doesn't Chris Christie

756
00:45:57,239 --> 00:46:01,799
Speaker 1: doesn't have some insight into the election process or these

757
00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:05,400
Speaker 1: legal challenges that the rest of us don't. So far,

758
00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:08,200
Speaker 1: they haven't worked. I mean, we can all observe the reality.

759
00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:11,520
Speaker 1: We can all see what's happening. So far, Juliani's team

760
00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:14,440
Speaker 1: has not been able to get any victories. That's that

761
00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:18,279
Speaker 1: is true. That is I'm these are facts, you know,

762
00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:20,359
Speaker 1: And we're not going to become CNN here on the right.

763
00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:22,120
Speaker 1: We're not going to live in a delusion and lie

764
00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:25,799
Speaker 1: to people for ratings or for anything else. But there's

765
00:46:25,840 --> 00:46:29,520
Speaker 1: also some time left here. There are these legal challenges

766
00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:32,480
Speaker 1: that are continuing. Let's see what happens if they're all

767
00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:37,800
Speaker 1: so silly, if they're also irrelevant or baseless. Fine, people

768
00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:40,040
Speaker 1: bring lawsuits and they get shot down all the time.

769
00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:44,040
Speaker 1: The courts, in a sense are are you know, a

770
00:46:44,239 --> 00:46:48,279
Speaker 1: purification system for legal ideas. Now, they don't always get

771
00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:50,439
Speaker 1: it right either, which we have to also keep in mind.

772
00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:52,840
Speaker 1: But so you bring it forward, you say this is

773
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:55,719
Speaker 1: our legal theory, and if it is incorrect or if

774
00:46:55,760 --> 00:46:59,279
Speaker 1: it doesn't work, then you you go beyond that, you

775
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:03,640
Speaker 1: move beyond it. That's where we are. We will accept

776
00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:07,080
Speaker 1: the results of this election if in fact, we get

777
00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:11,200
Speaker 1: through every everything that we've got and the result is

778
00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:14,160
Speaker 1: the result. There's no there is no alternative that people

779
00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:15,680
Speaker 1: that are people that are out there are saying that

780
00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:17,520
Speaker 1: we're going to come up with some you know, Texas

781
00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:19,480
Speaker 1: is going to become its own state or something else.

782
00:47:19,840 --> 00:47:22,840
Speaker 1: They're just appealing to emotion, and I think at some

783
00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:29,200
Speaker 1: levels it becomes disrespectful of conservatives, conservative audiences and the

784
00:47:29,320 --> 00:47:32,359
Speaker 1: people that are on our side politically to tell them

785
00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:34,239
Speaker 1: what you know is because there's a lot of that

786
00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:35,680
Speaker 1: going on right now. People are saying what they know

787
00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:37,839
Speaker 1: isn't true, but they know that the audience wants to hear,

788
00:47:38,880 --> 00:47:42,040
Speaker 1: and they hope that that that feeling will just translate

789
00:47:42,640 --> 00:47:45,359
Speaker 1: later on when the when the people that are saying

790
00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:48,160
Speaker 1: things right now that maybe aren't not going to Chris

791
00:47:48,239 --> 00:47:50,320
Speaker 1: Christy length of making fun of the lassage andything that

792
00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:53,640
Speaker 1: that that's absurd, But I really believe that I have

793
00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:56,280
Speaker 1: an obligation to tell you that. You know, our challenge

794
00:47:56,360 --> 00:48:00,120
Speaker 1: so far has not gone well. Our legal challenge just

795
00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:02,239
Speaker 1: have not gone well for this election. Do I think

796
00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:06,200
Speaker 1: Do I know that there were irregularities and cheating this election? Absolutely?

797
00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:09,840
Speaker 1: Do I know that this stinks to high heaven and

798
00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:12,400
Speaker 1: it's it's just a disgrace and it feels like this

799
00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:18,520
Speaker 1: whole thing was just wrong. Yes, But do I also

800
00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:20,840
Speaker 1: know that there's no alternative system that we have in

801
00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:23,160
Speaker 1: place to do something other than what we're doing right now,

802
00:48:23,239 --> 00:48:28,120
Speaker 1: and that at the end of it we may actually lose. Yes. Yes,

803
00:48:28,280 --> 00:48:30,600
Speaker 1: And I've known this for a while now, and I've

804
00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:32,319
Speaker 1: tried to stay back. You know, people who got mad

805
00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:34,640
Speaker 1: at me because I say, ah, well, you know, I

806
00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:37,000
Speaker 1: think I said on Sarah Carter's podcast a couple of

807
00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:39,320
Speaker 1: weeks ago, we got about a five or five to

808
00:48:39,400 --> 00:48:43,480
Speaker 1: ten percent chance of really turning this thing around and

809
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:46,520
Speaker 1: sending it to the States or having a different again

810
00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:49,880
Speaker 1: legal process where that could occur. And I got a

811
00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:52,040
Speaker 1: lot of heat for that. That was just honest, and

812
00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:54,080
Speaker 1: I was right. I mean, if you're doing the odds,

813
00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:56,279
Speaker 1: if you look at this, you look at the number

814
00:48:56,280 --> 00:48:58,720
Speaker 1: of legal cases, the number of states, the margin of victory.

815
00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:01,160
Speaker 1: It's a long shot. And even the people involved in

816
00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:04,279
Speaker 1: the legal challenge, I'll tell you, they'll they'll, they'll, they'll

817
00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:06,560
Speaker 1: tell you it's a long shot behind closed doors. So

818
00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:10,040
Speaker 1: you know. Now, now it's a question of how we

819
00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:12,279
Speaker 1: process this and how we get ready for the fight

820
00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:17,960
Speaker 1: going forward as this makes its way, as this continues

821
00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:22,000
Speaker 1: on to the final stages here, I mean, otherwise, someone

822
00:49:22,080 --> 00:49:23,920
Speaker 1: tell me what they really think the alternative is going

823
00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:26,920
Speaker 1: to be. There's not going to be a secession movement.

824
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:29,560
Speaker 1: It's not going to happen. There's not going to be

825
00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:33,400
Speaker 1: a rejection of our entire process. We're not going to

826
00:49:33,480 --> 00:49:37,480
Speaker 1: all move to you know, Polynesia. Okay, it's not going

827
00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:41,440
Speaker 1: to happen. So let's look at what is happening, and

828
00:49:41,640 --> 00:49:47,640
Speaker 1: let's fight these cheaters and scoundrels and statists and authoritarians

829
00:49:48,040 --> 00:49:52,160
Speaker 1: together with everything we've got. Let's win in Georgia. Don't

830
00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:55,640
Speaker 1: need to be you know, snide about I mean, this

831
00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:57,399
Speaker 1: is the CLI clip I actually meant to play. Here's

832
00:49:57,440 --> 00:50:00,680
Speaker 1: Chris Christy just being kind of asked you about this

833
00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:04,439
Speaker 1: whole thing. Plate ten, Well, listen, the legal theory put

834
00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:08,080
Speaker 1: forward by his legal team and by the President is

835
00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:11,000
Speaker 1: an absurdity. And the reason why the Supreme Court didn't

836
00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:13,680
Speaker 1: taken is because it's an absurd idea to think that

837
00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:16,279
Speaker 1: any state or any number of states, no matter how

838
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:20,200
Speaker 1: good they are, can challenge in other state's right to

839
00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:23,439
Speaker 1: run the election as they see fit. And also, there's

840
00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:26,759
Speaker 1: no evidence, as I've been saying since election night, show

841
00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:30,160
Speaker 1: us the evidence. And what's gotten even worse, though, Martha,

842
00:50:30,200 --> 00:50:34,919
Speaker 1: I think, is the attacks by the President on good, hardworking,

843
00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:44,520
Speaker 1: decent Republican governors. Good hardworking, decent Republican governors. Look, there's

844
00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:46,840
Speaker 1: no need to say that the legal theory is absurd.

845
00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:50,520
Speaker 1: There's a need to track down everything we're doing here,

846
00:50:50,560 --> 00:50:53,920
Speaker 1: look at everything that's going on, and come to a

847
00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:56,640
Speaker 1: final determination about where we are and what we can do.

848
00:50:56,760 --> 00:51:01,840
Speaker 1: At this stage, it's I'm I'm as as upset about

849
00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:05,239
Speaker 1: this as anybody else. It's it's a kick in the face,

850
00:51:07,080 --> 00:51:10,799
Speaker 1: and we're again. I think that the Champarnell case, maybe

851
00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:16,200
Speaker 1: maybe that is the legal miracle that sets all this right,

852
00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:20,760
Speaker 1: or at least gets that going. Maybe we can finally

853
00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:24,360
Speaker 1: prove in a way that a court will uphold that

854
00:51:24,800 --> 00:51:28,840
Speaker 1: dominion voting systems are problematic or are too easy to

855
00:51:28,920 --> 00:51:33,640
Speaker 1: be messed with. But in the meantime, let's all just

856
00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:36,680
Speaker 1: band together. We know what we're fighting for, we know

857
00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:40,719
Speaker 1: what our team's all about, and we will we will

858
00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:43,680
Speaker 1: get through this. We will get through this, and we

859
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:46,480
Speaker 1: will get to bigger victories in the future. It's going

860
00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:51,439
Speaker 1: to happen. Keep the faith you're in the Freedom Hunt.

861
00:51:51,880 --> 00:51:58,880
Speaker 1: This is the Buck Sex and Show podcast. Indoor dining

862
00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:02,560
Speaker 1: in n y See shut down. It's likely to happen

863
00:52:02,640 --> 00:52:06,080
Speaker 1: in other places across the country as well. I've got

864
00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:09,600
Speaker 1: my friend Joe Barelli, who is a city councilman here

865
00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:12,200
Speaker 1: in New York City and a rare Republican on the

866
00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:14,960
Speaker 1: New York City Council, joining us to talk about how

867
00:52:15,040 --> 00:52:18,600
Speaker 1: this is going. Joe, great to have you on. Always

868
00:52:18,640 --> 00:52:21,600
Speaker 1: good to be here. I was looking right now, my friend.

869
00:52:21,640 --> 00:52:24,320
Speaker 1: I mean, I saw of the weekend these outdoor structures

870
00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:25,920
Speaker 1: that they've built in New York City. I know they

871
00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:29,400
Speaker 1: have them in other places too. Are the outdoor but

872
00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:33,160
Speaker 1: kind of indoor structure is gonna still be able to operate,

873
00:52:33,239 --> 00:52:36,759
Speaker 1: But normal interior restaurant dining is shutdown? Is that the

874
00:52:36,800 --> 00:52:42,560
Speaker 1: way this works, Yeah, which makes sense. So the outdoor, indoor, inside, outside,

875
00:52:42,640 --> 00:52:45,279
Speaker 1: you can still do that, with the exception of the

876
00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:47,680
Speaker 1: Northeastern that's going to blow in here over the next

877
00:52:47,760 --> 00:52:50,239
Speaker 1: few days, so even that'll be out the window for

878
00:52:50,320 --> 00:52:53,680
Speaker 1: these poor people who are struggling with small business restaurants

879
00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:56,640
Speaker 1: in New York City. But you are a history guy,

880
00:52:57,280 --> 00:52:59,880
Speaker 1: and if we played a little trivia right now, I

881
00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:02,400
Speaker 1: would ask you to look back in all your knowledge

882
00:53:02,719 --> 00:53:05,600
Speaker 1: to find one example of a president or governor or

883
00:53:05,680 --> 00:53:09,719
Speaker 1: mayor who said we're going to enact a policy which

884
00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:13,400
Speaker 1: is financially harmful to his own or her own citizens,

885
00:53:13,960 --> 00:53:18,799
Speaker 1: and then simultaneously tout statistics that prove that policy will

886
00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:22,279
Speaker 1: be ineffective at any rate. And that's what we had

887
00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:25,800
Speaker 1: on Friday with Governor Cuomo. He said, we're shutting down dining.

888
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:28,279
Speaker 1: At the same time he told us the statistics show

889
00:53:28,680 --> 00:53:31,560
Speaker 1: dining is not causing nearly any COVID around New York

890
00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:34,840
Speaker 1: State or New York City. That's amazing to me because

891
00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:38,960
Speaker 1: when we look at this now, the data seems to

892
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:43,880
Speaker 1: suggest that the transmission is mostly happening in homes. But

893
00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:46,160
Speaker 1: are they not able to figure out well, if it's

894
00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:49,120
Speaker 1: not really happening in restaurants and dining, and most of

895
00:53:49,200 --> 00:53:53,120
Speaker 1: the spread as aggregate numbers goes in the home. Where

896
00:53:53,320 --> 00:53:56,040
Speaker 1: is the initials spread to the you know, the let's

897
00:53:56,040 --> 00:53:58,359
Speaker 1: say head of household or whoever brings it into the home.

898
00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:01,480
Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean? Yeah? I mean I

899
00:54:01,600 --> 00:54:04,960
Speaker 1: think this contact tracing idea has been flawed from from

900
00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:07,680
Speaker 1: the very beginning. I mean, this was the reason given

901
00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:11,640
Speaker 1: that as why we couldn't open up restaurants and dining

902
00:54:11,719 --> 00:54:14,200
Speaker 1: and gyms, etc. In the first place. And then when

903
00:54:14,239 --> 00:54:16,640
Speaker 1: we finally get the data, we're not really learning all

904
00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:19,239
Speaker 1: that much. In fact, we're learning very little. Right. If

905
00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:22,640
Speaker 1: there was some data to indicate that, you know, twenty

906
00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:27,080
Speaker 1: five thirty forty percent of cases we're coming from restaurants,

907
00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:29,960
Speaker 1: we could probably act on that. We could probably all

908
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:32,320
Speaker 1: agree that maybe we do have to take some measures

909
00:54:32,360 --> 00:54:35,759
Speaker 1: and make some considerations. But we're just not the fact

910
00:54:35,800 --> 00:54:38,239
Speaker 1: that we're just saying seventy something percent are coming from

911
00:54:38,280 --> 00:54:40,880
Speaker 1: the home where people can do whatever they want, and

912
00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:43,520
Speaker 1: then leaving it up to God to do the rest.

913
00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:47,160
Speaker 1: It's unfair how that translates into well, we might have

914
00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:51,239
Speaker 1: to have another shutdown of restaurant dining gyms, etc. Where

915
00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:54,200
Speaker 1: are we on gyms at NYC, because that is one

916
00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:56,719
Speaker 1: If they shut down the gyms, I don't know, man,

917
00:54:56,760 --> 00:54:58,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be out there protesting in the northeaster or

918
00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:01,360
Speaker 1: in the streets, because to me, that just means everyone

919
00:55:01,480 --> 00:55:05,000
Speaker 1: is more depressed, less healthy. And they've had almost no

920
00:55:05,160 --> 00:55:07,680
Speaker 1: spread in Jim's too, which might be a shock to people.

921
00:55:09,239 --> 00:55:11,080
Speaker 1: But it's funny you asked, I was about to flex

922
00:55:11,160 --> 00:55:13,960
Speaker 1: for you in my athletic wear today. So Jims were

923
00:55:14,040 --> 00:55:17,080
Speaker 1: allowed to reopen on Monday. They were closed the week prior,

924
00:55:17,480 --> 00:55:20,080
Speaker 1: and now the Mayor and governor, though announced that New

925
00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:22,480
Speaker 1: York City might have to go to a complete lockdown

926
00:55:22,920 --> 00:55:25,759
Speaker 1: soon so that those would once again be closed. So

927
00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:28,759
Speaker 1: if you're following along and you get the impression that

928
00:55:28,840 --> 00:55:31,239
Speaker 1: I really couldn't even tell you whether jim will be

929
00:55:31,320 --> 00:55:33,840
Speaker 1: open in another week or two, it's because even I,

930
00:55:34,000 --> 00:55:36,239
Speaker 1: as an elected official in New York City, can not

931
00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:38,960
Speaker 1: even fathom whether Jim's will be opened a week from today,

932
00:55:39,040 --> 00:55:42,279
Speaker 1: but they're open today. Who are the people that are

933
00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:45,880
Speaker 1: supposed to be the experts that are making these decisions,

934
00:55:46,440 --> 00:55:48,640
Speaker 1: or rather that are that are pushing these decisions? You know,

935
00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:51,320
Speaker 1: the advisors at the local level, because I feel like

936
00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:55,680
Speaker 1: they've gotten a lot wrong. Joe. No, it's it's the governor.

937
00:55:55,719 --> 00:55:58,239
Speaker 1: It's the governor, and it's politics. It's it's not necessarily

938
00:55:58,320 --> 00:56:02,200
Speaker 1: the health people. They're just the rubber stamps. Look, I mean,

939
00:56:02,280 --> 00:56:04,960
Speaker 1: we have indoor dining clothes now in Manhattan. Manhattan has

940
00:56:04,960 --> 00:56:08,200
Speaker 1: a positivity rate of two point five percent. The statewide

941
00:56:08,320 --> 00:56:11,680
Speaker 1: positivity rate is five percent, meaning that the rate in

942
00:56:11,760 --> 00:56:15,120
Speaker 1: Manhattan is half that of everywhere else in the state,

943
00:56:15,239 --> 00:56:19,640
Speaker 1: meaning it's double as good. To mince the numbers, and

944
00:56:19,800 --> 00:56:23,800
Speaker 1: yet Manhattan will have closed indoor dining, but Chemung County

945
00:56:24,120 --> 00:56:27,719
Speaker 1: in upstate New York will allow indoor dining where coronavirus

946
00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:31,960
Speaker 1: is at least according to their data. Running more rampant, Joe,

947
00:56:32,680 --> 00:56:34,440
Speaker 1: what's gonna happen? We all got about a minute. But

948
00:56:34,440 --> 00:56:36,359
Speaker 1: what's going to happen to small businesses in this city

949
00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:40,040
Speaker 1: is is there going to be some bailout program for them? No?

950
00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:43,800
Speaker 1: I mean the governor could tomorrow authorize a deferment, or

951
00:56:43,840 --> 00:56:47,400
Speaker 1: an elimination of the state's quarterly income tax payments that

952
00:56:48,040 --> 00:56:51,320
Speaker 1: businesses are required to remit. And that amounts to you know,

953
00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:53,640
Speaker 1: just eight percent of what their register would be over

954
00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:56,880
Speaker 1: the past three months. But that that that's a grant,

955
00:56:56,960 --> 00:56:58,960
Speaker 1: I mean treated as a grant. Give these people back

956
00:56:59,040 --> 00:57:01,040
Speaker 1: their money them hold on to it and let them

957
00:57:01,080 --> 00:57:03,719
Speaker 1: pay their employees, let them pay the rent, whatever they

958
00:57:03,800 --> 00:57:06,239
Speaker 1: got to do, so that hopefully in quarters one, two, three,

959
00:57:06,280 --> 00:57:08,560
Speaker 1: and four of twenty twenty one, they're still in business

960
00:57:08,600 --> 00:57:11,239
Speaker 1: to keep paying the taxes. I'm worried that a lot

961
00:57:11,280 --> 00:57:13,680
Speaker 1: of my favorite places and that are you know, a

962
00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:16,520
Speaker 1: big reason why people live in New York City is

963
00:57:16,600 --> 00:57:19,080
Speaker 1: because of that. You know, the bar where you met

964
00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:22,160
Speaker 1: your fiance, the restaurant where you celebrated your first promotion.

965
00:57:22,200 --> 00:57:23,960
Speaker 1: You know, you choose. It's such a part of our

966
00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:26,600
Speaker 1: culture and our life here. I think I think they're

967
00:57:26,600 --> 00:57:29,200
Speaker 1: just going to be decimated. I think it's going to

968
00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:32,360
Speaker 1: be a blood bath for these small businesses. And that's

969
00:57:32,360 --> 00:57:35,480
Speaker 1: just it's it's really sad. But well, we'll keep the faith. Joe,

970
00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:37,600
Speaker 1: hopefully we got better days ahead. Joe Barelli of the

971
00:57:37,600 --> 00:57:40,080
Speaker 1: New York City Council. Joe, thanks for joining me and

972
00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:43,040
Speaker 1: I always good to talk to you YouTube. Thank you

973
00:57:45,400 --> 00:57:48,840
Speaker 1: thanks for listening to The Bus Sesson Show podcasts. Remember

974
00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:52,640
Speaker 1: to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever

975
00:57:52,800 --> 00:57:55,920
Speaker 1: you get your podcasts. There's a case to be name

976
00:57:56,040 --> 00:58:00,400
Speaker 1: that this will actually strengthen Trump and his base. And

977
00:58:00,800 --> 00:58:04,280
Speaker 1: here's why. At least for now, the president has had

978
00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:08,600
Speaker 1: some constraints on him as president. He can't do things

979
00:58:08,680 --> 00:58:12,360
Speaker 1: that are totally off the charts. There are still people

980
00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:14,760
Speaker 1: and lawyers around him who tell him, you can't do that, sir,

981
00:58:14,920 --> 00:58:16,880
Speaker 1: you can't fire this guy. You shouldn't do that when

982
00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:19,520
Speaker 1: he leaves. And if he's right about creating his own

983
00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:24,080
Speaker 1: media empire and a digital platform and declaring simultaneously that

984
00:58:24,160 --> 00:58:27,240
Speaker 1: he's the candidate in twenty twenty four, what you now

985
00:58:27,440 --> 00:58:31,880
Speaker 1: have is a totally unchecked actor all over the media

986
00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:36,640
Speaker 1: with seventy million votes of people who will will follow

987
00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:39,440
Speaker 1: him and you know, one hundred million or whatever he's

988
00:58:39,480 --> 00:58:43,440
Speaker 1: got on Twitter following him. He becomes unchecked and his

989
00:58:43,600 --> 00:58:47,040
Speaker 1: people in the eyes of his base, he becomes the hero,

990
00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:50,560
Speaker 1: the wrong hero who must be avenged. You know this,

991
00:58:50,720 --> 00:58:53,280
Speaker 1: this outrage must be avenged. He's our guy. And so

992
00:58:53,960 --> 00:58:55,800
Speaker 1: add to it the qan on folks who have been

993
00:58:55,840 --> 00:58:59,000
Speaker 1: elected to Congress, right, and you can see a recipe

994
00:58:59,040 --> 00:59:04,560
Speaker 1: where this doesn't go way, this lenacy becomes embedded in

995
00:59:04,800 --> 00:59:08,280
Speaker 1: our society and our culture. There you have a Russia

996
00:59:08,360 --> 00:59:12,920
Speaker 1: collusion truther who was a former senior FBI guy. I

997
00:59:13,000 --> 00:59:15,000
Speaker 1: think he was the deputy assistant or something. I mean,

998
00:59:15,040 --> 00:59:17,120
Speaker 1: he was some ord you know, deputy director. I don't know,

999
00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:20,400
Speaker 1: as some senior FBI title. Who knows he was a

1000
00:59:20,560 --> 00:59:22,960
Speaker 1: senior guy at the FBI, who's telling you that you

1001
00:59:23,080 --> 00:59:26,040
Speaker 1: need to be on guard, you need to be careful

1002
00:59:26,200 --> 00:59:29,880
Speaker 1: because there could be this whole narrative out there of

1003
00:59:29,960 --> 00:59:32,480
Speaker 1: a stolen election and that Trump, even if he's not president,

1004
00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:36,439
Speaker 1: will be dangerous. And you know, I think that they're

1005
00:59:36,520 --> 00:59:40,200
Speaker 1: forgetting that we all went through. We all went through

1006
00:59:40,320 --> 00:59:43,800
Speaker 1: three years a four years rather of Russia collusion, lies

1007
00:59:44,680 --> 00:59:48,920
Speaker 1: and attacks and smears, And yeah, yeah, they're gonna have

1008
00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:51,240
Speaker 1: a really tough time dealing with a Donald Trump if

1009
00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:55,320
Speaker 1: he's not president. They're gonna have a difficult time fighting

1010
00:59:55,480 --> 00:59:59,840
Speaker 1: through the way that Trump and his movement will be

1011
01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:03,880
Speaker 1: able to be a problem for their narrative. But beyond that,

1012
01:00:03,920 --> 01:00:06,000
Speaker 1: I also note that we're all supposed to be so worried.

1013
01:00:06,200 --> 01:00:08,240
Speaker 1: We were worried he wasn't going to accept the lass.

1014
01:00:08,560 --> 01:00:11,040
Speaker 1: Now you got this, this guy's moron figure you'd see.

1015
01:00:11,040 --> 01:00:13,400
Speaker 1: I mean, he goes in MSNBC. The guy's a complete jackass.

1016
01:00:13,520 --> 01:00:18,840
Speaker 1: It really, the FBI and the CIA brands are irrevocably

1017
01:00:19,160 --> 01:00:23,480
Speaker 1: or irrevocably sorry, but the FBI and CI brands are

1018
01:00:23,760 --> 01:00:29,040
Speaker 1: deeply damaged as a result of what's going on here,

1019
01:00:29,480 --> 01:00:34,240
Speaker 1: damaged beyond repair. I think, and I'm somebody who you know,

1020
01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:36,280
Speaker 1: i'd like to think the CIA is well regarded. It's

1021
01:00:36,320 --> 01:00:39,520
Speaker 1: it's really not anymore because of these senior officials from

1022
01:00:39,560 --> 01:00:42,000
Speaker 1: these agencies who go out and act like partisan morons.

1023
01:00:43,160 --> 01:00:45,080
Speaker 1: But you know, there was violence this weekend. This guy's

1024
01:00:45,080 --> 01:00:47,480
Speaker 1: so worried about what's gonna happen. Violence this weekend, more

1025
01:00:47,640 --> 01:00:53,320
Speaker 1: Biden voters, Democrats, Antifa attacking Trump supporters in DC. It's

1026
01:00:53,320 --> 01:00:55,360
Speaker 1: not covered in the media. It doesn't even get a mention.

1027
01:00:55,560 --> 01:00:57,840
Speaker 1: The lunacy of the left that's going on in Seattle

1028
01:00:57,920 --> 01:00:59,960
Speaker 1: right now and in Portland and and DC over the weekend,

1029
01:01:00,000 --> 01:01:02,160
Speaker 1: and they don't even think of it as a news story.

1030
01:01:02,840 --> 01:01:06,120
Speaker 1: I mean, they really are like the Soviet media. You know,

1031
01:01:06,200 --> 01:01:09,920
Speaker 1: they're Pravda circa nineteen fifty eight or something. I mean

1032
01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:13,920
Speaker 1: it's appalling what they're willing to lie about and cover up.

1033
01:01:16,440 --> 01:01:19,440
Speaker 1: You're in the Freedom Hunt. This is the Buck Sexton

1034
01:01:19,520 --> 01:01:27,600
Speaker 1: Show podcast. How does China influence our politics? We heard

1035
01:01:27,640 --> 01:01:30,720
Speaker 1: so much about Russian influence the election in twenty sixteen.

1036
01:01:30,880 --> 01:01:33,200
Speaker 1: It was greatly exaggerated, as you know, by the media

1037
01:01:33,320 --> 01:01:36,320
Speaker 1: because they used it as a weapon against Trump. But

1038
01:01:36,520 --> 01:01:40,800
Speaker 1: now we're starting to wake up to the reality of pervasive, widespread,

1039
01:01:40,960 --> 01:01:46,760
Speaker 1: and incredibly powerful Chinese Communist Party influence operations, and they're

1040
01:01:46,800 --> 01:01:50,880
Speaker 1: following our politics closely and trying to direct political outcomes

1041
01:01:50,920 --> 01:01:52,840
Speaker 1: in this country. I've got someone joining now who could

1042
01:01:52,840 --> 01:01:56,200
Speaker 1: speak very much to this issue. Stephen Yates is with

1043
01:01:56,320 --> 01:02:00,320
Speaker 1: us now. He is the principle of DC International Advisory

1044
01:02:00,560 --> 01:02:04,960
Speaker 1: and he's formerly Deputy National Security Advisor to Vice President

1045
01:02:05,000 --> 01:02:07,760
Speaker 1: Dick Cheney and the Bush administration. Steve great to have you.

1046
01:02:09,560 --> 01:02:12,080
Speaker 1: Thank you, Buckets one will to join you. And Steve

1047
01:02:12,160 --> 01:02:15,040
Speaker 1: is also a Mandarin speaker, so he's been handling this

1048
01:02:15,120 --> 01:02:18,480
Speaker 1: issue and looking at it for a very long time. Stephen,

1049
01:02:18,520 --> 01:02:21,040
Speaker 1: how does China and walk us through this? I mean,

1050
01:02:21,120 --> 01:02:24,800
Speaker 1: give us a kind of overview brief of what we're

1051
01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:28,600
Speaker 1: seeing now and how China in recent years has tried

1052
01:02:28,640 --> 01:02:32,760
Speaker 1: to influence American politics. Well, Buck, I'll give a quick

1053
01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:35,120
Speaker 1: version of it. This is something that's been going on

1054
01:02:35,240 --> 01:02:39,920
Speaker 1: a long time. It's escalated, it's become more sophisticated, and

1055
01:02:40,480 --> 01:02:45,440
Speaker 1: it's been technologized, and all the weapons are at the

1056
01:02:45,520 --> 01:02:48,479
Speaker 1: hands of the Communist Party of China at this point.

1057
01:02:48,960 --> 01:02:52,240
Speaker 1: But if people might remember, but it seems ancient history

1058
01:02:52,360 --> 01:02:54,760
Speaker 1: that there are influence operations that hit the public in

1059
01:02:54,800 --> 01:02:58,440
Speaker 1: the nineteen nineties, there are fundraising scandals that came up

1060
01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:03,120
Speaker 1: during the Clinton administration. Congress had a full, full scale

1061
01:03:03,240 --> 01:03:06,800
Speaker 1: national security report done under the leadership of Chris Cox that,

1062
01:03:06,920 --> 01:03:09,240
Speaker 1: among other things, gave warning things about this. But the

1063
01:03:09,400 --> 01:03:14,000
Speaker 1: Chinese used to use access to their markets as leverage

1064
01:03:14,360 --> 01:03:18,240
Speaker 1: to try to get more favorable policies from Americas. So

1065
01:03:18,720 --> 01:03:22,280
Speaker 1: the old argument was China's developing country. We give them

1066
01:03:22,320 --> 01:03:24,440
Speaker 1: a break here and there and treat them like a

1067
01:03:24,640 --> 01:03:27,760
Speaker 1: developing country, sort of like a kid at the kid's table,

1068
01:03:28,320 --> 01:03:31,120
Speaker 1: but with the potential to come to the big tables.

1069
01:03:31,200 --> 01:03:33,440
Speaker 1: Let's give them a break and go ahead and give

1070
01:03:33,480 --> 01:03:36,720
Speaker 1: them special access, and they'll grow into their role of

1071
01:03:36,840 --> 01:03:40,360
Speaker 1: being a responsible partner of ours. Over time, they've gone

1072
01:03:40,440 --> 01:03:43,560
Speaker 1: from just giving money to campaigns, which got them in

1073
01:03:43,680 --> 01:03:47,280
Speaker 1: trouble in the nineteen nineties. So then they found out, well,

1074
01:03:47,320 --> 01:03:50,640
Speaker 1: what if we work with churches and chambers of commerce,

1075
01:03:50,960 --> 01:03:54,760
Speaker 1: in other words, let's influence the influencers. And it got

1076
01:03:55,560 --> 01:04:01,240
Speaker 1: from corporate boardrooms to evangelical associations, a Catholic church itself,

1077
01:04:02,280 --> 01:04:07,080
Speaker 1: other kinds of civic organizations, whether it's sister cities. They

1078
01:04:07,200 --> 01:04:12,560
Speaker 1: just spanded this this this outreach effort, and they completely

1079
01:04:12,640 --> 01:04:16,800
Speaker 1: co opted a lot of our major universities. So universities

1080
01:04:16,880 --> 01:04:20,000
Speaker 1: are businesses. I think that they should be treated more

1081
01:04:20,040 --> 01:04:24,680
Speaker 1: like businesses if education is only a small fraction of

1082
01:04:24,840 --> 01:04:28,560
Speaker 1: their revenue and business model. And what they've done is

1083
01:04:28,720 --> 01:04:31,840
Speaker 1: they make it so that foreign exchange students, research programs

1084
01:04:31,840 --> 01:04:35,360
Speaker 1: are completely dependent on the good graces of the Communist

1085
01:04:35,400 --> 01:04:38,120
Speaker 1: Party of China to have all of this money that

1086
01:04:38,240 --> 01:04:42,160
Speaker 1: they that they live on. So they become too big

1087
01:04:42,320 --> 01:04:45,480
Speaker 1: to fail in a way that you can't criticize China.

1088
01:04:46,280 --> 01:04:49,480
Speaker 1: We can't question government policy towards China, or they'll pull

1089
01:04:49,520 --> 01:04:52,160
Speaker 1: the red carpet out from under our feed. So that

1090
01:04:52,360 --> 01:04:56,400
Speaker 1: that's been growing over decades. What's much much more pronounced

1091
01:04:56,480 --> 01:05:03,000
Speaker 1: now is their role in big tech, big entertainment, big sports,

1092
01:05:04,120 --> 01:05:07,720
Speaker 1: all other elements of the culture War. They seem to

1093
01:05:07,760 --> 01:05:11,240
Speaker 1: have snuck in and taken a monopoly control over just

1094
01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:14,160
Speaker 1: in recent years. Speaking at Steve Yates, he is the

1095
01:05:14,320 --> 01:05:19,280
Speaker 1: CEO of DC International Advisory and a former senior national

1096
01:05:19,360 --> 01:05:24,120
Speaker 1: security official under the Bush administration. Steven tell us about

1097
01:05:24,600 --> 01:05:28,200
Speaker 1: you mentioned the big tech influence, and we're already seeing

1098
01:05:28,360 --> 01:05:31,280
Speaker 1: a lot of problems on the right from American big

1099
01:05:31,320 --> 01:05:35,720
Speaker 1: tech companies involved in censorship. How does China try to

1100
01:05:35,880 --> 01:05:41,200
Speaker 1: leverage big tech to direct American politics or get involved

1101
01:05:41,320 --> 01:05:44,040
Speaker 1: in our political conversations. Well, in some ways it's too

1102
01:05:44,080 --> 01:05:49,360
Speaker 1: easy for them. If you want the greatest freedom free

1103
01:05:49,560 --> 01:05:54,600
Speaker 1: zone to test facial recognition, artificial intelligence, ways to monitor

1104
01:05:54,680 --> 01:05:58,520
Speaker 1: and control and influence people, China is the greatest sort

1105
01:05:58,560 --> 01:06:01,520
Speaker 1: of experimental farm you could go to to try to

1106
01:06:01,560 --> 01:06:04,720
Speaker 1: figure out how applied technology you can be used to

1107
01:06:04,840 --> 01:06:07,720
Speaker 1: manipulate and control people. So, if you're in the business

1108
01:06:07,760 --> 01:06:11,480
Speaker 1: of doing that in advertising, you might have a perverse

1109
01:06:11,600 --> 01:06:14,680
Speaker 1: interest in trying to cooperate with China. But the Chinese

1110
01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:17,280
Speaker 1: have all kinds of tentacles back in they can do

1111
01:06:17,360 --> 01:06:19,760
Speaker 1: it by direct investment. They can do it by way

1112
01:06:19,800 --> 01:06:22,960
Speaker 1: of engineers that are exceedingly well trained but willing to

1113
01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:25,480
Speaker 1: work at a slightly lower rate. And even if we

1114
01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:28,840
Speaker 1: just look at recent controversies about who are the fact

1115
01:06:28,960 --> 01:06:32,440
Speaker 1: checkers in big tech today that are determining that a

1116
01:06:32,520 --> 01:06:34,760
Speaker 1: warning label needs to go onto the at real Donald

1117
01:06:34,800 --> 01:06:39,200
Speaker 1: Trump account, in many cases those are farmed out to

1118
01:06:39,560 --> 01:06:44,840
Speaker 1: Chinese fact checker farms. And so this is they're tied

1119
01:06:44,920 --> 01:06:47,000
Speaker 1: in in so many different ways that people wouldn't even

1120
01:06:47,040 --> 01:06:50,680
Speaker 1: think about it. You're telling me, you're telling me that

1121
01:06:50,840 --> 01:06:54,360
Speaker 1: some of the some of the fact checking of American

1122
01:06:54,400 --> 01:06:56,800
Speaker 1: because I've been fact checking, I mean I've I've personally

1123
01:06:56,920 --> 01:06:59,040
Speaker 1: been subjected to this in the last few weeks, some

1124
01:06:59,200 --> 01:07:02,240
Speaker 1: of the fact check and accompanying censorship that's happening in

1125
01:07:02,320 --> 01:07:08,080
Speaker 1: America around American tech companies, preventing Americans from sharing ideas.

1126
01:07:08,360 --> 01:07:12,680
Speaker 1: We're being fact checked by Chinese, by Chinese people in

1127
01:07:12,800 --> 01:07:16,760
Speaker 1: Chinese artificial intelligence. It's been outsourced. I mean, the scale

1128
01:07:16,840 --> 01:07:20,440
Speaker 1: of the operation to try to monitor the amount of

1129
01:07:20,680 --> 01:07:25,280
Speaker 1: traffic as we would say, say Twitter, that's bigger than

1130
01:07:25,680 --> 01:07:29,040
Speaker 1: most American companies can really reasonably do. And plus we're

1131
01:07:29,040 --> 01:07:31,640
Speaker 1: talking about international traffic. Think can bounce all over the

1132
01:07:31,720 --> 01:07:35,280
Speaker 1: place and still be about the American election or political process.

1133
01:07:36,160 --> 01:07:39,520
Speaker 1: And so the Chinese Communist Party and they're they're they're

1134
01:07:39,680 --> 01:07:43,800
Speaker 1: invested outfits. They make themselves available to help out, you know,

1135
01:07:43,880 --> 01:07:47,320
Speaker 1: when needed on things like this. But very very very

1136
01:07:47,400 --> 01:07:50,360
Speaker 1: very plausibly, you or anyone else that has a sizable

1137
01:07:50,360 --> 01:07:52,960
Speaker 1: audience has been fact checked by someone who's not even

1138
01:07:53,000 --> 01:07:57,280
Speaker 1: an American. Oh my gosh, almost makes me think that

1139
01:07:57,640 --> 01:08:00,840
Speaker 1: it'd be better to have your LIB MS NBC watchers.

1140
01:08:00,880 --> 01:08:02,880
Speaker 1: At least at least they feel like there might be

1141
01:08:03,120 --> 01:08:05,800
Speaker 1: some eventual accountability for what they're doing. But if you're

1142
01:08:05,840 --> 01:08:08,480
Speaker 1: talking about outsourcing the stuff to China, Yance, you could

1143
01:08:08,520 --> 01:08:10,840
Speaker 1: cross paths with them, Yeah, exactly. At least I could

1144
01:08:10,880 --> 01:08:13,040
Speaker 1: find out what the outfit is and maybe try to

1145
01:08:13,080 --> 01:08:16,160
Speaker 1: get some redress or Speaking of Steve Yates, he is

1146
01:08:16,200 --> 01:08:19,799
Speaker 1: the CEO of DC International Advisor. He's a China policy expert.

1147
01:08:20,320 --> 01:08:25,000
Speaker 1: Steve tell everyone listening this about the role that the

1148
01:08:25,320 --> 01:08:29,040
Speaker 1: relationship and role that China has to the US agricultural

1149
01:08:29,160 --> 01:08:31,840
Speaker 1: industry and how they've tried to leverage that in recent years.

1150
01:08:31,960 --> 01:08:34,000
Speaker 1: And you have some particular knowledge of this as a

1151
01:08:34,000 --> 01:08:38,760
Speaker 1: guy who ran for lieutenant governor in Idaho. Yeah. Well,

1152
01:08:39,160 --> 01:08:41,760
Speaker 1: one of the more famous examples on the presidential level

1153
01:08:41,880 --> 01:08:44,960
Speaker 1: has been the influence they tried to exert in Iowa.

1154
01:08:45,240 --> 01:08:48,880
Speaker 1: And so there has been a former governor of Iowa

1155
01:08:49,560 --> 01:08:53,880
Speaker 1: that was the President Trump's ambassador to China, Branstead. And

1156
01:08:54,600 --> 01:08:59,800
Speaker 1: so the Chinese would would offer up access to their

1157
01:09:00,720 --> 01:09:04,040
Speaker 1: consumers for all of our wonderful farm products. And if

1158
01:09:04,080 --> 01:09:06,799
Speaker 1: they took kind of a controlling share of say korn

1159
01:09:07,280 --> 01:09:11,519
Speaker 1: in one state, or wheat in another, or hay in

1160
01:09:11,640 --> 01:09:17,160
Speaker 1: other places, they can have tremendous political impact by saying whoa, whoa,

1161
01:09:17,320 --> 01:09:21,320
Speaker 1: don't talk about going to Taiwan, or don't support your

1162
01:09:21,360 --> 01:09:25,559
Speaker 1: elected members on these tough on China policies, or I'm

1163
01:09:25,600 --> 01:09:28,320
Speaker 1: so sorry, we might not be able to buy the

1164
01:09:28,479 --> 01:09:31,960
Speaker 1: next billion dollars worth of your product for the coming season.

1165
01:09:32,120 --> 01:09:35,080
Speaker 1: So sorry. So they've been able to exercise that influence

1166
01:09:35,160 --> 01:09:38,360
Speaker 1: for me personally in a state of Idaho, there's a

1167
01:09:38,400 --> 01:09:41,880
Speaker 1: lot of exports that go to China, but it's people

1168
01:09:41,920 --> 01:09:45,080
Speaker 1: who then associate with the Chinese or use the China

1169
01:09:45,200 --> 01:09:49,160
Speaker 1: angle that can attack you. And so since I have

1170
01:09:49,280 --> 01:09:51,519
Speaker 1: a name in Chinese and people have known me through

1171
01:09:51,600 --> 01:09:55,320
Speaker 1: the media in Chinese language. A whole bunch of fake

1172
01:09:55,360 --> 01:10:00,320
Speaker 1: accounts can start sending criticisms, making fake videos, and they

1173
01:10:00,360 --> 01:10:03,280
Speaker 1: get picked up in the American press, and they don't know,

1174
01:10:03,479 --> 01:10:05,439
Speaker 1: you know, we don't have sufficient fact checkers in some

1175
01:10:05,520 --> 01:10:07,800
Speaker 1: part of rural America, and they don't know what's going on.

1176
01:10:07,960 --> 01:10:11,360
Speaker 1: They say, I'm an agent of China, And anyone who's

1177
01:10:11,360 --> 01:10:14,599
Speaker 1: ever known me from the nineteen nineties until now, there

1178
01:10:14,680 --> 01:10:17,040
Speaker 1: probably isn't anyone who has a longer record of being

1179
01:10:17,120 --> 01:10:19,240
Speaker 1: a pain in the backside of the Communist Party than

1180
01:10:19,280 --> 01:10:22,320
Speaker 1: I have. But it just takes a few fake accounts

1181
01:10:22,360 --> 01:10:25,240
Speaker 1: and build a fake audience, and that Twitter farm goes,

1182
01:10:25,320 --> 01:10:27,720
Speaker 1: and the Facebook farm goes, and it looks like there's

1183
01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:30,800
Speaker 1: hundreds of people that don't like this mister Yates from

1184
01:10:30,840 --> 01:10:34,560
Speaker 1: Idaho because he's tough on China. Stephen, what should we

1185
01:10:35,120 --> 01:10:40,280
Speaker 1: do about this? Do you think that there's a recognition

1186
01:10:40,439 --> 01:10:45,679
Speaker 1: of how important powerful and nefarious Chinese influence is Chinese

1187
01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:48,560
Speaker 1: Communist Party influences in the United States that there is

1188
01:10:48,880 --> 01:10:52,400
Speaker 1: enough willingness to do something. And if that is the case,

1189
01:10:52,640 --> 01:10:56,439
Speaker 1: and I'm emphasizing if what should be done well, I

1190
01:10:56,520 --> 01:10:59,559
Speaker 1: think the single most potent force we have in America

1191
01:10:59,720 --> 01:11:03,920
Speaker 1: right now is the Trump movement. It's something that can

1192
01:11:04,120 --> 01:11:09,040
Speaker 1: earn coverage, it can influence people who are active in

1193
01:11:09,240 --> 01:11:11,280
Speaker 1: multiple states, and that's what it's going to take. It's

1194
01:11:11,280 --> 01:11:13,840
Speaker 1: going to take things in state legislatures in addition to

1195
01:11:13,960 --> 01:11:16,680
Speaker 1: Congress and the federal government. People have to forget that

1196
01:11:17,240 --> 01:11:19,160
Speaker 1: the federal government isn't going to be our savior. We're

1197
01:11:19,160 --> 01:11:22,160
Speaker 1: gonna have to save ourselves from the ground up. And

1198
01:11:23,160 --> 01:11:25,679
Speaker 1: they're gonna have to put pressure on universities. They're gonna

1199
01:11:25,680 --> 01:11:30,320
Speaker 1: have to put pressure on the patterns of trade that

1200
01:11:30,439 --> 01:11:33,120
Speaker 1: our states engage in. And that's going to be much

1201
01:11:33,200 --> 01:11:36,000
Speaker 1: much more effective than trying to wait for a federal response.

1202
01:11:36,080 --> 01:11:39,559
Speaker 1: But recognizing that free trip that those college kids got

1203
01:11:39,640 --> 01:11:42,400
Speaker 1: to go to China, it's going to come with some strings.

1204
01:11:42,560 --> 01:11:45,439
Speaker 1: That that great welcome that you've got to promise to

1205
01:11:45,520 --> 01:11:49,360
Speaker 1: buy all these crops, this group of visitors that was

1206
01:11:49,360 --> 01:11:51,720
Speaker 1: going to prop up your resort or your hotel or

1207
01:11:51,800 --> 01:11:54,200
Speaker 1: something like that, that can be taken away as easily

1208
01:11:54,240 --> 01:11:56,680
Speaker 1: as as it's given, and it's going to come with

1209
01:11:56,760 --> 01:11:59,439
Speaker 1: strings attached. I think Secretary of Pompeio has been in

1210
01:11:59,520 --> 01:12:02,400
Speaker 1: a store Secretary of State in this regard the most

1211
01:12:02,520 --> 01:12:04,960
Speaker 1: candid in terms of talking to the world but also

1212
01:12:05,040 --> 01:12:08,240
Speaker 1: talking to Americans about what the nature and scope of

1213
01:12:08,360 --> 01:12:10,720
Speaker 1: this challenge has been. And we're just at the very

1214
01:12:10,880 --> 01:12:13,920
Speaker 1: beginning of having that real conversation. And it seems like nothing,

1215
01:12:14,520 --> 01:12:16,840
Speaker 1: but in my thirty years of working on this topic,

1216
01:12:17,280 --> 01:12:20,639
Speaker 1: this is the first we've even made headway and having

1217
01:12:20,680 --> 01:12:23,800
Speaker 1: that more honest conversation. It just needs to continue. Our

1218
01:12:23,840 --> 01:12:27,080
Speaker 1: allies are getting hit by the Chinese. Two the Brits,

1219
01:12:27,280 --> 01:12:30,120
Speaker 1: the Australians have had some ugly political attacks on them

1220
01:12:30,240 --> 01:12:32,519
Speaker 1: by the Chinese, and so more of the world is

1221
01:12:32,640 --> 01:12:36,479
Speaker 1: coming around to this isn't Donald Trump the person versus

1222
01:12:36,880 --> 01:12:41,320
Speaker 1: big bad China. This is China declaring war on civilization

1223
01:12:41,360 --> 01:12:43,479
Speaker 1: as we know it, freedom as we've known it. And

1224
01:12:43,720 --> 01:12:46,679
Speaker 1: sadly they've got enablers in our own polity and we've

1225
01:12:46,720 --> 01:12:49,200
Speaker 1: got to get wise. And I think this election experience

1226
01:12:49,439 --> 01:12:52,640
Speaker 1: has awakened more Americans to roll this boulder forward in

1227
01:12:52,720 --> 01:12:54,960
Speaker 1: the right way. I hope. Before we let you go,

1228
01:12:55,600 --> 01:13:00,200
Speaker 1: the story that broke about all these Chinese Communist Party

1229
01:13:00,240 --> 01:13:04,880
Speaker 1: members based on this leaked list, it was named and

1230
01:13:05,280 --> 01:13:13,080
Speaker 1: particularly UK major international United Kingdom base. You know British companies, Steve,

1231
01:13:13,160 --> 01:13:14,360
Speaker 1: what did you make of that? I mean it was

1232
01:13:14,720 --> 01:13:16,680
Speaker 1: I think of a company, you know, Rolls Royce. We

1233
01:13:16,720 --> 01:13:19,160
Speaker 1: think of these British companies that people all all know

1234
01:13:19,240 --> 01:13:21,960
Speaker 1: off the top of their head they've hired and in

1235
01:13:22,040 --> 01:13:26,000
Speaker 1: some cases put in pretty sensitive positions, not just Chinese workers,

1236
01:13:26,160 --> 01:13:29,559
Speaker 1: which the different thing members active members of the Chinese

1237
01:13:29,600 --> 01:13:34,360
Speaker 1: Communist Party. Yeah, so these the target of corporate leaders

1238
01:13:34,400 --> 01:13:38,080
Speaker 1: and influencers has been something that a lot of nefarious

1239
01:13:38,080 --> 01:13:40,679
Speaker 1: players around the world have gone to, and the Chinese

1240
01:13:40,680 --> 01:13:43,120
Speaker 1: have made a big, big play for that. And the

1241
01:13:43,439 --> 01:13:45,840
Speaker 1: corporate boards and corporate leadership that allows these people in

1242
01:13:46,000 --> 01:13:49,559
Speaker 1: either are really really ignorant to let these people into

1243
01:13:49,600 --> 01:13:52,560
Speaker 1: the barn, or they're in on the joke, and what

1244
01:13:52,640 --> 01:13:55,720
Speaker 1: they're trying to do is to buy access to the

1245
01:13:55,840 --> 01:13:59,439
Speaker 1: ever elusive billion plus Chinese market by allowing these folks

1246
01:13:59,479 --> 01:14:03,840
Speaker 1: into board rooms and influential positions. What happens most of

1247
01:14:03,880 --> 01:14:08,080
Speaker 1: the time, though, is technology and talent and other gets

1248
01:14:08,120 --> 01:14:10,960
Speaker 1: stolen away from them and a competitor rises up in

1249
01:14:11,080 --> 01:14:13,240
Speaker 1: China and they need to learn this sad lesson. But

1250
01:14:13,400 --> 01:14:17,320
Speaker 1: this has happened in many corporations, in many political organizations.

1251
01:14:17,600 --> 01:14:20,120
Speaker 1: The UK story could easily be replicated in a lot

1252
01:14:20,200 --> 01:14:23,080
Speaker 1: of America. We know that members of the Senate and

1253
01:14:23,200 --> 01:14:27,760
Speaker 1: House Intelligence communities have been personally compromised by staffers being

1254
01:14:27,920 --> 01:14:32,160
Speaker 1: on their roles for many years, and an FBI briefing

1255
01:14:32,400 --> 01:14:35,439
Speaker 1: ends that tenure. But the damage is done. That's been

1256
01:14:35,479 --> 01:14:37,720
Speaker 1: done in corporations, have been done in Congress, It's been

1257
01:14:37,720 --> 01:14:40,840
Speaker 1: done in campaigns, and everyone needs to get wiser about

1258
01:14:40,880 --> 01:14:45,560
Speaker 1: how to vet this. Stephen Yates, CEO of DC International Advisory,

1259
01:14:46,000 --> 01:14:49,479
Speaker 1: you can follow him on Twitter. Steve, great to have you, Matt,

1260
01:14:49,520 --> 01:14:54,360
Speaker 1: thanks so much, my pleasure to take care Buck. Thanks

1261
01:14:54,400 --> 01:14:57,640
Speaker 1: for listening to the Bus Sesson Show podcast. Remember to

1262
01:14:57,680 --> 01:15:01,320
Speaker 1: subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeart Radio app four, wherever

1263
01:15:01,439 --> 01:15:05,840
Speaker 1: you get your podcasts. Is there a doctor in the

1264
01:15:05,960 --> 01:15:11,840
Speaker 1: White House? Not if you need an m D. This

1265
01:15:12,120 --> 01:15:16,160
Speaker 1: was written by this guy, Joseph Epstein, and the subheading

1266
01:15:16,200 --> 01:15:17,960
Speaker 1: if this is an editor in the Wall Street Journal,

1267
01:15:18,080 --> 01:15:22,360
Speaker 1: Jill Biden should think about dropping the honorific, which feels

1268
01:15:22,479 --> 01:15:27,960
Speaker 1: fraudulent even comic. Let me just be very clear, it

1269
01:15:28,160 --> 01:15:31,000
Speaker 1: is fraudulent and comic. It's absurd. Now one is a

1270
01:15:31,080 --> 01:15:34,000
Speaker 1: fraudulent I mean the notion that we should have to

1271
01:15:34,120 --> 01:15:36,840
Speaker 1: call this person who got a PhD at fifty five

1272
01:15:36,960 --> 01:15:39,439
Speaker 1: because she was apparently bored and you know, wanted to

1273
01:15:39,520 --> 01:15:43,000
Speaker 1: get more street cred or something. Got a PhD at

1274
01:15:43,080 --> 01:15:51,280
Speaker 1: fifty five in some kind of you know, educational field,

1275
01:15:52,120 --> 01:15:53,760
Speaker 1: and we're all supposed refer to as doctor. Now, well,

1276
01:15:53,840 --> 01:15:55,599
Speaker 1: let me be very clear. This is a custom thing,

1277
01:15:55,800 --> 01:15:58,800
Speaker 1: this is a cultural thing. There's no legal issue here, right,

1278
01:15:59,000 --> 01:16:02,720
Speaker 1: Call whatever you want. So I don't really understand what

1279
01:16:02,920 --> 01:16:04,960
Speaker 1: they think the big deal is here, and I want

1280
01:16:04,960 --> 01:16:09,320
Speaker 1: to be very clear that when I look at this,

1281
01:16:09,479 --> 01:16:13,000
Speaker 1: I see that there are people making a big deal

1282
01:16:13,080 --> 01:16:18,639
Speaker 1: is now. I said back in August, doctor Jill Biden

1283
01:16:18,720 --> 01:16:21,680
Speaker 1: shouldn't be called doctor. This isn't a partisan statement. It's

1284
01:16:21,680 --> 01:16:26,840
Speaker 1: about reality. That was back in August. So they wrote

1285
01:16:26,880 --> 01:16:29,519
Speaker 1: this piece of the walls through journal a few months after.

1286
01:16:29,640 --> 01:16:32,280
Speaker 1: I was already coming out there saying this because I

1287
01:16:32,320 --> 01:16:35,000
Speaker 1: think it's very obvious. The whole thing is absurd. But

1288
01:16:35,439 --> 01:16:42,439
Speaker 1: you see, they hate. You're not allowed to mock. You

1289
01:16:42,520 --> 01:16:46,920
Speaker 1: are not allowed to mock people in power when they're Democrats.

1290
01:16:47,000 --> 01:16:49,040
Speaker 1: You can't do that. You're not allowed to poke fun

1291
01:16:49,120 --> 01:16:53,080
Speaker 1: at them. They shut that down because it takes away

1292
01:16:54,160 --> 01:16:57,400
Speaker 1: from the power and the perception of power that they're

1293
01:16:57,439 --> 01:16:59,880
Speaker 1: trying to build for them. So you know, I mean,

1294
01:17:00,280 --> 01:17:04,599
Speaker 1: Jill Biden is not a doctor. And here's what this guy,

1295
01:17:04,840 --> 01:17:10,479
Speaker 1: this guy writes, Madam first Lady missus Biden, Jill kiddo,

1296
01:17:11,280 --> 01:17:13,240
Speaker 1: now that people got mad about the kiddo thing, A

1297
01:17:13,320 --> 01:17:16,840
Speaker 1: bit of advice on what may seem like a small

1298
01:17:16,880 --> 01:17:20,360
Speaker 1: but I think is not an important matter. Any chance

1299
01:17:20,760 --> 01:17:24,840
Speaker 1: you might drop the doctor before your name, Doctor Jill

1300
01:17:24,920 --> 01:17:28,200
Speaker 1: Biden sounds and feels fraudulent, not to say, a touch comic.

1301
01:17:28,880 --> 01:17:33,040
Speaker 1: Your degree is I believe an e an ed d.

1302
01:17:33,560 --> 01:17:37,560
Speaker 1: Or a Doctor of Education earned at the University of

1303
01:17:37,720 --> 01:17:42,879
Speaker 1: Delaware through a dissertation with the unpromising title student retention

1304
01:17:43,080 --> 01:17:48,200
Speaker 1: at the community college level, meeting students' needs. A wise

1305
01:17:48,280 --> 01:17:50,519
Speaker 1: man once said that no one should call himself doctor

1306
01:17:50,640 --> 01:17:54,280
Speaker 1: unless he has delivered a child. Think about a doctor, Jill,

1307
01:17:54,400 --> 01:18:00,519
Speaker 1: and forthwith drop the doc. I taught at Northwestern University

1308
01:18:00,600 --> 01:18:03,280
Speaker 1: for thirty years without a doctorate or any advanced degree.

1309
01:18:04,160 --> 01:18:07,680
Speaker 1: I have only a BA in absentia from the University

1310
01:18:07,720 --> 01:18:11,480
Speaker 1: of Chicago in absentia because I took my final examination

1311
01:18:11,560 --> 01:18:15,120
Speaker 1: on a pool table at headquarters company ford Hood, Texas,

1312
01:18:15,680 --> 01:18:18,400
Speaker 1: while serving in the Peacetime Army in the late nineteen fifties.

1313
01:18:18,960 --> 01:18:21,479
Speaker 1: I do have an honorary doctorate, though I have yet

1314
01:18:21,520 --> 01:18:24,200
Speaker 1: to report to the president of the school that awarded it.

1315
01:18:24,479 --> 01:18:26,519
Speaker 1: I was fired the year after I received it. Not

1316
01:18:26,720 --> 01:18:33,799
Speaker 1: I hope for allowing my honorary doctorate. That's right. So friends,

1317
01:18:34,360 --> 01:18:37,160
Speaker 1: this is pretty straightforward. And I remember some of you

1318
01:18:37,280 --> 01:18:39,960
Speaker 1: wrote any disagree with me on this, that's fine. I

1319
01:18:40,080 --> 01:18:42,160
Speaker 1: think it's weird, and if you if we can argue

1320
01:18:42,160 --> 01:18:44,360
Speaker 1: about this, there's certainly argument to be had on both sides.

1321
01:18:44,400 --> 01:18:46,840
Speaker 1: I think it's weird to insist, because she clearly does.

1322
01:18:47,320 --> 01:18:50,080
Speaker 1: Because there are tons of people out there without doctorates.

1323
01:18:50,520 --> 01:18:52,599
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, with doctorates who don't want to be called

1324
01:18:52,600 --> 01:18:55,400
Speaker 1: the doctor. There lots and lots and lots of them.

1325
01:18:56,640 --> 01:18:59,000
Speaker 1: I've always thought this was a little strange. I never

1326
01:18:59,120 --> 01:19:01,439
Speaker 1: liked that. I had a We call them headmasters at

1327
01:19:01,479 --> 01:19:05,000
Speaker 1: my grammar school, my primary school, so that's that's what

1328
01:19:05,040 --> 01:19:08,960
Speaker 1: we had to call our principal, a headmaster, and we

1329
01:19:09,080 --> 01:19:11,080
Speaker 1: had to call him doctor, and he was he wasn't

1330
01:19:11,080 --> 01:19:13,680
Speaker 1: a doctor. You know we had some kind of a

1331
01:19:13,880 --> 01:19:16,800
Speaker 1: doctorate in the humanities or whatever. And I know that

1332
01:19:16,880 --> 01:19:21,519
Speaker 1: there's some there's some long standing tradition here of people

1333
01:19:21,640 --> 01:19:25,200
Speaker 1: that are getting a the PhD came before the MD

1334
01:19:25,400 --> 01:19:29,080
Speaker 1: or whatever. I don't care. We've we've evolved in our

1335
01:19:29,120 --> 01:19:31,920
Speaker 1: conversation about this. A doctor is a person who is

1336
01:19:31,960 --> 01:19:35,679
Speaker 1: a doctor, right, and I think that that's in it's

1337
01:19:35,840 --> 01:19:38,519
Speaker 1: it's delivered as an honorific it's delivered as a term

1338
01:19:38,560 --> 01:19:41,840
Speaker 1: of respect. I do not have any respect for Jill

1339
01:19:41,960 --> 01:19:48,040
Speaker 1: Biden's PhD in community college retention. I give zero, you

1340
01:19:48,240 --> 01:19:52,320
Speaker 1: know what's about that? And so I'm not going to

1341
01:19:52,400 --> 01:19:55,040
Speaker 1: walk around and be told that I have to. I

1342
01:19:55,120 --> 01:19:56,600
Speaker 1: have to say this a better You know this is

1343
01:19:56,840 --> 01:20:00,679
Speaker 1: if I insisted that Democrats call me Buck the radio

1344
01:20:00,760 --> 01:20:03,880
Speaker 1: genius Sexton, they would have a right to say, no,

1345
01:20:04,080 --> 01:20:06,960
Speaker 1: we're not actually going to do that. We're not actually

1346
01:20:06,960 --> 01:20:09,240
Speaker 1: going to refer to him as the radio genius and say, well,

1347
01:20:09,320 --> 01:20:11,800
Speaker 1: but why not, you know it, why not just be

1348
01:20:11,920 --> 01:20:13,799
Speaker 1: polite and call him what he likes to be called.

1349
01:20:14,280 --> 01:20:18,599
Speaker 1: They won't do that. So I I know I had

1350
01:20:18,640 --> 01:20:21,519
Speaker 1: a grandfather who had an honorary doctorate from Notre Dame

1351
01:20:21,760 --> 01:20:24,719
Speaker 1: no One. We never called him doctor. He wasn't a doctor.

1352
01:20:26,120 --> 01:20:30,439
Speaker 1: So I think that this is this is just one

1353
01:20:30,439 --> 01:20:32,040
Speaker 1: of these things that shouldn't have been such a big deal.

1354
01:20:32,479 --> 01:20:37,880
Speaker 1: But the Libs and the machinery of Biden worship, that's

1355
01:20:37,920 --> 01:20:41,000
Speaker 1: all kicking into gear. It's amazing. Oh this is sexist.

1356
01:20:41,120 --> 01:20:44,920
Speaker 1: They say it's not sexist. Oh what they think that

1357
01:20:45,000 --> 01:20:47,280
Speaker 1: if we were supposed to call him doctor Joe Biden

1358
01:20:47,360 --> 01:20:51,599
Speaker 1: because of his PhD in education and in community college

1359
01:20:51,640 --> 01:20:55,280
Speaker 1: retention or whatever, that we wouldn't make fun of him

1360
01:20:55,280 --> 01:20:57,639
Speaker 1: for that. That's absurd. I mean, their point is absurd.

1361
01:20:57,680 --> 01:21:00,559
Speaker 1: It's not it's not real. I would, of course make

1362
01:21:00,600 --> 01:21:02,320
Speaker 1: fun of Joe Biden for that. I'd make fun of

1363
01:21:02,360 --> 01:21:04,160
Speaker 1: anyone for that, and I think we have a right

1364
01:21:04,200 --> 01:21:08,799
Speaker 1: to do that. But you'll you'll notice there's a particular

1365
01:21:08,880 --> 01:21:15,120
Speaker 1: sensitivity around Biden and his wife and the First family

1366
01:21:15,280 --> 01:21:18,600
Speaker 1: and all this stuff because they don't want people to

1367
01:21:18,680 --> 01:21:21,560
Speaker 1: start to realize how how silly this whole thing is.

1368
01:21:22,160 --> 01:21:26,360
Speaker 1: That Joe Biden is a third tier mediocrity in every sense,

1369
01:21:27,120 --> 01:21:29,360
Speaker 1: and they just figured that this is a guy we

1370
01:21:29,479 --> 01:21:32,200
Speaker 1: could make president. They didn't spend enough time thinking about

1371
01:21:32,200 --> 01:21:34,479
Speaker 1: should we make him president. They just figured out we can,

1372
01:21:34,840 --> 01:21:37,760
Speaker 1: we can fool enough people with the media and with

1373
01:21:37,920 --> 01:21:41,400
Speaker 1: social media allied together in a pandemic year, we could

1374
01:21:41,479 --> 01:21:43,840
Speaker 1: we could get this guy to be president. And they're

1375
01:21:43,880 --> 01:21:45,639
Speaker 1: all going to try to pretend like this is really

1376
01:21:45,680 --> 01:21:48,000
Speaker 1: impressive and he's some great guy. Joe Biden's a clown

1377
01:21:49,120 --> 01:21:52,719
Speaker 1: and it's a little it is. It's pretentious that her wife,

1378
01:21:52,840 --> 01:21:55,160
Speaker 1: that his wife rather goes around demanding to be called

1379
01:21:55,240 --> 01:21:59,479
Speaker 1: doctor doctor Joe Biden. I'm sorry it is pretentious because

1380
01:21:59,520 --> 01:22:03,120
Speaker 1: clearly demands it, because we know about it, right, This

1381
01:22:03,280 --> 01:22:05,439
Speaker 1: isn't like it just is. It's not It's one thing

1382
01:22:05,479 --> 01:22:09,840
Speaker 1: in the classroom on campus. I'm talking about it in

1383
01:22:10,000 --> 01:22:14,160
Speaker 1: like general, in life, in general. You know, I think

1384
01:22:14,240 --> 01:22:17,360
Speaker 1: Dick Cheney's wife has a has a doctorate. No one

1385
01:22:17,439 --> 01:22:20,519
Speaker 1: calls her doctor Cheney like missus Cheney. There's tons of examples.

1386
01:22:20,760 --> 01:22:23,360
Speaker 1: The Wall Street Journal do its credit, Uh fired back

1387
01:22:23,400 --> 01:22:25,439
Speaker 1: on this one because social media over the weekend. Oh

1388
01:22:25,520 --> 01:22:29,479
Speaker 1: my gosh, how how dare you not referred to as

1389
01:22:29,840 --> 01:22:34,320
Speaker 1: doctor Jill Biden. I just want to know it. Has

1390
01:22:34,320 --> 01:22:37,320
Speaker 1: anyone who ever wrote a dissertation for a PhD program

1391
01:22:37,360 --> 01:22:40,160
Speaker 1: at the University of Delaware. I'm just gonna ask this question.

1392
01:22:40,360 --> 01:22:42,960
Speaker 1: Do you think I've ever not gotten it? Do you

1393
01:22:43,040 --> 01:22:44,760
Speaker 1: think the University of Delaware has every been like, yeah,

1394
01:22:44,760 --> 01:22:48,439
Speaker 1: you're you're in their PhD program and you finished a doctorate,

1395
01:22:48,600 --> 01:22:51,760
Speaker 1: but you know it just wasn't really good, so we're

1396
01:22:51,800 --> 01:22:54,120
Speaker 1: not going to give you your PhD. I'm just guessing.

1397
01:22:54,200 --> 01:22:56,240
Speaker 1: I don't know. I have to I wonder if the

1398
01:22:56,280 --> 01:22:58,320
Speaker 1: state is even available. I'm guessing the answer though, is

1399
01:22:58,400 --> 01:23:00,640
Speaker 1: that you know, you show up, you write the thing,

1400
01:23:00,680 --> 01:23:04,600
Speaker 1: you get the doctorate. So what exactly is impressive about this?

1401
01:23:05,920 --> 01:23:08,840
Speaker 1: In what way am I supposed to care about? No,

1402
01:23:09,280 --> 01:23:12,320
Speaker 1: of course not. Do do you think that? Do you

1403
01:23:12,400 --> 01:23:14,280
Speaker 1: think that if the roles were reversed, if this was

1404
01:23:14,320 --> 01:23:17,920
Speaker 1: a Republican's wife, the Democrats would be leaping to her defense. No.

1405
01:23:18,080 --> 01:23:21,439
Speaker 1: In fact, there was no talk about the sexism of

1406
01:23:21,800 --> 01:23:24,080
Speaker 1: attacking Milanni all the time. There was no talk about

1407
01:23:24,080 --> 01:23:26,559
Speaker 1: the xenophobia of attacking her accent, making fun of her

1408
01:23:26,760 --> 01:23:30,280
Speaker 1: a woman who speaks five She's a highly successful international

1409
01:23:30,360 --> 01:23:33,320
Speaker 1: model who speaks five languages. But they would they love

1410
01:23:33,400 --> 01:23:37,160
Speaker 1: making jokes about her, mocking her. Do you think they

1411
01:23:37,200 --> 01:23:41,760
Speaker 1: made you think they made jokes about this. Would they

1412
01:23:41,760 --> 01:23:43,439
Speaker 1: make jokes about this if it was a Republican. No,

1413
01:23:44,280 --> 01:23:45,800
Speaker 1: they would if it was a Republican, Not if it's

1414
01:23:45,800 --> 01:23:48,760
Speaker 1: a Democrat. So oh, there's a little bit more here.

1415
01:23:49,920 --> 01:23:52,760
Speaker 1: I want to read more from this guy's piece. The

1416
01:23:52,960 --> 01:23:57,360
Speaker 1: PhD may have once held prestige, but that has been

1417
01:23:57,400 --> 01:24:00,400
Speaker 1: diminished by the erosion of seriousness and the relaxation of

1418
01:24:00,479 --> 01:24:05,120
Speaker 1: standards in university education generally, at any rate, outside the sciences,

1419
01:24:05,720 --> 01:24:08,680
Speaker 1: getting a doctorate was then an arduous proceeding. One had

1420
01:24:08,720 --> 01:24:12,120
Speaker 1: to pass examinations in two foreign languages, one of them

1421
01:24:12,200 --> 01:24:15,400
Speaker 1: Greek or Latin, defend one's thesis, and take an oral

1422
01:24:15,520 --> 01:24:19,799
Speaker 1: examination on general knowledge in one's field. At Columbia University

1423
01:24:19,880 --> 01:24:22,400
Speaker 1: of an earlier day, a secretary sat outside the room

1424
01:24:22,439 --> 01:24:25,519
Speaker 1: where these examinations were administered, a pitcher of water and

1425
01:24:25,640 --> 01:24:29,000
Speaker 1: a glass on her desk. The water and glass were

1426
01:24:29,040 --> 01:24:32,280
Speaker 1: there for the candidates who fainted a far cry. This

1427
01:24:32,680 --> 01:24:35,240
Speaker 1: is from the few doctoral examinations I sat in on

1428
01:24:35,360 --> 01:24:38,960
Speaker 1: during my teaching days, where candidates and teachers addressed one

1429
01:24:39,000 --> 01:24:42,519
Speaker 1: another by first name, and the general atmosphere you're more

1430
01:24:42,560 --> 01:24:48,080
Speaker 1: resembled a coffee clatch. Doctor Jill I note you acquired

1431
01:24:48,120 --> 01:24:51,519
Speaker 1: your ed as recently as fifteen years ago or at

1432
01:24:51,600 --> 01:24:56,040
Speaker 1: age fifty five, long after the terror had departed. The

1433
01:24:56,160 --> 01:25:00,559
Speaker 1: prestige of honorary doctorates has declined even further. Such degrees

1434
01:25:00,600 --> 01:25:05,600
Speaker 1: were once given exclusively to scholars, statements, statesmen, artists, and scientists.

1435
01:25:06,200 --> 01:25:08,600
Speaker 1: Then rich men entered the list, usually the hope they

1436
01:25:08,600 --> 01:25:10,559
Speaker 1: would donate money to the schools that had granted than

1437
01:25:10,600 --> 01:25:15,280
Speaker 1: their honorary degrees. My friends, my late friends. Saul Linowitz,

1438
01:25:15,400 --> 01:25:18,880
Speaker 1: then chairman of Xerox, told me he had sixty three

1439
01:25:19,040 --> 01:25:24,440
Speaker 1: honorary doctorates. Famoush television journalists who passed themselves off as intelligent,

1440
01:25:24,640 --> 01:25:30,840
Speaker 1: followed entertainers who didn't bother feigning intelligence were next. At Northwestern,

1441
01:25:31,080 --> 01:25:35,240
Speaker 1: recent honorary degree recipients and commencement speakers have included Stephen

1442
01:25:35,280 --> 01:25:39,080
Speaker 1: Colbert and Seth Myers. I sent a complaining email to

1443
01:25:39,120 --> 01:25:41,639
Speaker 1: the schools president about the low quality of such men,

1444
01:25:41,960 --> 01:25:46,040
Speaker 1: of men, sorry, of such men as academic honorand's, with

1445
01:25:46,240 --> 01:25:49,560
Speaker 1: the result that the following year the commencement speaker and

1446
01:25:49,760 --> 01:25:53,599
Speaker 1: honorand was Billy Jean King, who, with the graduating members

1447
01:25:53,640 --> 01:25:56,840
Speaker 1: of the schools women's tennis team, hit tennis balls out

1448
01:25:56,920 --> 01:25:59,760
Speaker 1: to the audience of graduating students and parents who had

1449
01:26:00,000 --> 01:26:02,919
Speaker 1: aid seventy thousand dollars a year for their university education,

1450
01:26:03,400 --> 01:26:08,360
Speaker 1: or perhaps I should say for their credential. Political correctness

1451
01:26:08,439 --> 01:26:13,320
Speaker 1: has put paid to has put paid to any true

1452
01:26:13,360 --> 01:26:17,360
Speaker 1: honor and honorary doctorate may once have possessed. If you're

1453
01:26:17,360 --> 01:26:21,200
Speaker 1: ever looking for a similar assimile to denote rarity, try

1454
01:26:22,040 --> 01:26:26,040
Speaker 1: rarer than a contemporary university honorary degree list not containing

1455
01:26:26,120 --> 01:26:29,360
Speaker 1: an African American woman. Then there are all those honorary

1456
01:26:29,439 --> 01:26:33,240
Speaker 1: degrees bestowed on Bill Cosby, Charlie Rose, and others, owing

1457
01:26:33,320 --> 01:26:37,120
Speaker 1: to their proven or alleged sexual predations, have to have

1458
01:26:37,600 --> 01:26:41,160
Speaker 1: had to be rescinded. Between the honorary degrees given to billionaires,

1459
01:26:41,200 --> 01:26:46,599
Speaker 1: the falsely intelligent entertainers, and the politically correct. Just about

1460
01:26:46,680 --> 01:26:50,840
Speaker 1: all honor has been drained from honorary doctorates, as your

1461
01:26:51,160 --> 01:26:54,000
Speaker 1: ed D or E ed d or, I don't know

1462
01:26:54,000 --> 01:26:57,040
Speaker 1: how you even say this educational doctorate, Madame first Lady,

1463
01:26:57,160 --> 01:26:59,240
Speaker 1: hard owned, though hard earned though it may have been,

1464
01:27:00,080 --> 01:27:02,800
Speaker 1: Please consider stowing it at least in public, at least

1465
01:27:02,800 --> 01:27:06,080
Speaker 1: for now. Forget the small thrill of being doctor Jill

1466
01:27:06,200 --> 01:27:08,040
Speaker 1: and settled for the larger thrill of living for the

1467
01:27:08,080 --> 01:27:11,080
Speaker 1: next four years and the best public housing the world has.

1468
01:27:11,200 --> 01:27:17,960
Speaker 1: As first Lady Jill Biden. Yeah, completely agree with this piece,

1469
01:27:18,200 --> 01:27:20,280
Speaker 1: which made out surprise any of you. I think it's

1470
01:27:20,320 --> 01:27:24,439
Speaker 1: completely correct. I think he's spot on. I think Joe

1471
01:27:24,520 --> 01:27:28,920
Speaker 1: Biden is you know. I think that she's a little

1472
01:27:28,960 --> 01:27:31,720
Speaker 1: high falutin here, and I agree, and I think we

1473
01:27:31,760 --> 01:27:34,280
Speaker 1: are allowed to make fun of this. I'm sorry. I

1474
01:27:34,640 --> 01:27:39,760
Speaker 1: am not simply not going to bend the knee on

1475
01:27:39,840 --> 01:27:46,920
Speaker 1: this one because they say so. No interest, no interest whatsoever.

1476
01:27:48,200 --> 01:27:53,960
Speaker 1: So that's what I would say. That's where I am

1477
01:27:54,000 --> 01:27:55,960
Speaker 1: on this one. Not calling her doctor Jill, don't call

1478
01:27:56,000 --> 01:27:58,439
Speaker 1: her Jill Biden the first lady. You can call her

1479
01:27:58,520 --> 01:28:01,360
Speaker 1: first Lady, that's fine, or Joe Biden. That's her name.

1480
01:28:02,680 --> 01:28:04,760
Speaker 1: Joe Biden can hem and hall about this as much

1481
01:28:04,800 --> 01:28:07,320
Speaker 1: as he wants, but really the more it's just get

1482
01:28:07,400 --> 01:28:09,960
Speaker 1: ready for a lot of the of the usual tactics

1483
01:28:10,000 --> 01:28:12,040
Speaker 1: you've seen in the past. They're gonna call this person,

1484
01:28:13,439 --> 01:28:15,800
Speaker 1: They're gonna call this person weeb. It is in the

1485
01:28:15,960 --> 01:28:18,280
Speaker 1: role that is pointing out what's so obvious to all

1486
01:28:18,320 --> 01:28:21,160
Speaker 1: of us sexist get ready for everything is going to

1487
01:28:21,200 --> 01:28:24,679
Speaker 1: be sexist and racist. Again. That's that's the future we're

1488
01:28:24,720 --> 01:28:28,200
Speaker 1: now heading toward in a Democrat bid administration. Whenever they

1489
01:28:28,200 --> 01:28:31,280
Speaker 1: don't like something, it's sexist, it's racist. They're not going

1490
01:28:31,360 --> 01:28:33,640
Speaker 1: to be arguing on the merits. They're not going to

1491
01:28:33,680 --> 01:28:37,840
Speaker 1: allow for differences of opinion on things that whenever they

1492
01:28:37,880 --> 01:28:39,519
Speaker 1: can get away with it, which is gonna be a lot,

1493
01:28:40,040 --> 01:28:43,280
Speaker 1: they're gonna raise this as an issue. They're gonna be

1494
01:28:43,360 --> 01:28:46,640
Speaker 1: telling people that this is the way it has to be.

1495
01:28:47,680 --> 01:28:52,120
Speaker 1: And I'm sorry, I refuse, I refuse. We gotta come

1496
01:28:52,200 --> 01:28:54,439
Speaker 1: up with something. They already used hashtag resist. We gotta

1497
01:28:54,439 --> 01:28:58,360
Speaker 1: come up with a hashtag, you know, go blank off libs,

1498
01:28:58,479 --> 01:29:03,760
Speaker 1: something like that. You're in the Freedom Hunt. This is

1499
01:29:03,840 --> 01:29:12,040
Speaker 1: the Buck Sexton Show podcast. Interesting story today at a

1500
01:29:12,160 --> 01:29:15,600
Speaker 1: time when I know the Attorney General has come in

1501
01:29:15,720 --> 01:29:19,960
Speaker 1: for a lot of criticism from Trump's supporters. Interesting story

1502
01:29:20,040 --> 01:29:21,840
Speaker 1: not getting a whole lot of attention here, but a

1503
01:29:21,920 --> 01:29:27,680
Speaker 1: little bit. Special Counsel Durham is expanding his team examining

1504
01:29:27,720 --> 01:29:32,000
Speaker 1: the origins of the Russia collusion problem. Let me tell

1505
01:29:32,000 --> 01:29:34,920
Speaker 1: you what could end up happening here, friends. Well, first, first,

1506
01:29:34,960 --> 01:29:36,880
Speaker 1: I'll give you the update the story. Fox News has

1507
01:29:36,960 --> 01:29:39,639
Speaker 1: learned that Durham, the USE attorney for Connecticut who bar

1508
01:29:39,720 --> 01:29:43,679
Speaker 1: appointed in October a special councils adding prosecutors to his team.

1509
01:29:45,080 --> 01:29:47,639
Speaker 1: It's unclear who they are, but Fox News a supporter

1510
01:29:47,720 --> 01:29:50,160
Speaker 1: that Jeff j Jeff Jensen, the US attorney for the

1511
01:29:50,200 --> 01:29:53,040
Speaker 1: Eastern District of Missouri, staff by the Justice Department in

1512
01:29:53,080 --> 01:29:55,280
Speaker 1: February or review the case of former aut security advisor

1513
01:29:55,320 --> 01:29:59,640
Speaker 1: Michael Flynn, was helping the Drum's investigation. So this is

1514
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:04,560
Speaker 1: it is interesting that the Durham would be expanding his

1515
01:30:04,720 --> 01:30:08,400
Speaker 1: team at this phase now he's a special counsel. Makes

1516
01:30:08,479 --> 01:30:12,400
Speaker 1: it a lot harder, makes it a lot harder for

1517
01:30:12,560 --> 01:30:17,520
Speaker 1: anyone to just shut this down in a Biden administration.

1518
01:30:17,560 --> 01:30:19,800
Speaker 1: I'm not saying it's impossible, but it makes it more complicated,

1519
01:30:19,840 --> 01:30:23,360
Speaker 1: it makes it more politically costly. And here's what I

1520
01:30:23,439 --> 01:30:27,360
Speaker 1: see happening. If they shut it down, We've already established

1521
01:30:27,400 --> 01:30:29,320
Speaker 1: because they said this under Trump, if they shut down

1522
01:30:29,439 --> 01:30:31,759
Speaker 1: they told us that if Trump shut down the special

1523
01:30:31,840 --> 01:30:34,719
Speaker 1: Collusion I'm sorry, Special Council probe in a Russia collusion,

1524
01:30:35,280 --> 01:30:38,200
Speaker 1: if they shut that down, they would impeach him. Just

1525
01:30:38,360 --> 01:30:40,880
Speaker 1: for shutting it down. We might be able to take

1526
01:30:40,920 --> 01:30:45,519
Speaker 1: the House back in two years. And depending on what

1527
01:30:45,680 --> 01:30:49,559
Speaker 1: this Durham probe finds, wouldn't it be fair play, wouldn't

1528
01:30:49,560 --> 01:30:54,920
Speaker 1: it be justice? Dare I say if Durham gets the

1529
01:30:55,040 --> 01:30:59,720
Speaker 1: goods on Biden and members of the members of the

1530
01:31:00,080 --> 01:31:03,040
Speaker 1: Obama administration, I mean, who knows what he's really going

1531
01:31:03,080 --> 01:31:05,840
Speaker 1: to find here, right, but people from the Obama administration

1532
01:31:05,920 --> 01:31:09,000
Speaker 1: who could be back in the Biden administration and Biden

1533
01:31:09,120 --> 01:31:12,800
Speaker 1: were to shut down the Durham probe or even try to,

1534
01:31:13,800 --> 01:31:17,360
Speaker 1: maybe it's time for a little Democrat impeachment process and

1535
01:31:17,680 --> 01:31:20,200
Speaker 1: maybe we'll see how they like it. You know, this

1536
01:31:20,400 --> 01:31:24,920
Speaker 1: could happen. I know it's a ways out. But if

1537
01:31:25,000 --> 01:31:28,240
Speaker 1: we do have a full accounting of Russia collusion, we

1538
01:31:28,280 --> 01:31:31,160
Speaker 1: we'll see if the Democrats are a bunch of corrupt

1539
01:31:32,080 --> 01:31:37,240
Speaker 1: deep state liars and their disgrace, and that the Obama

1540
01:31:37,280 --> 01:31:41,000
Speaker 1: administration that Joe Biden was a part of at a

1541
01:31:41,120 --> 01:31:45,120
Speaker 1: very high level was also a complete and utter disgrace.

1542
01:31:45,720 --> 01:31:49,840
Speaker 1: So don't give up entirely on this. I said Durham

1543
01:31:49,880 --> 01:31:52,800
Speaker 1: wasn't going to get it done before the election. I

1544
01:31:52,960 --> 01:31:55,000
Speaker 1: didn't realize that there was going to be a special

1545
01:31:55,080 --> 01:31:57,600
Speaker 1: counsel appointed after the election, or that he would be

1546
01:31:57,640 --> 01:32:01,120
Speaker 1: appointed as a special counsel, and this could this could

1547
01:32:01,280 --> 01:32:05,360
Speaker 1: change things quite a bit. This, this could be very

1548
01:32:06,960 --> 01:32:10,799
Speaker 1: very relevant going forward, because friends, the Russia collusion stuff

1549
01:32:10,880 --> 01:32:14,560
Speaker 1: was was was atrocious, and we know enough now to

1550
01:32:14,680 --> 01:32:16,800
Speaker 1: know that everything we've said about how bad they were

1551
01:32:16,920 --> 01:32:21,400
Speaker 1: and how awful and egregious their actions were, we were

1552
01:32:21,479 --> 01:32:24,639
Speaker 1: telling the truth. We were correct, and they were lying

1553
01:32:24,680 --> 01:32:28,120
Speaker 1: about this stuff. So Durham being able to find out

1554
01:32:28,240 --> 01:32:31,080
Speaker 1: more here and get to the point where he's able

1555
01:32:31,120 --> 01:32:34,120
Speaker 1: to hold people accountable, I think that could really make

1556
01:32:34,160 --> 01:32:37,760
Speaker 1: a big difference down the line, not right now, but

1557
01:32:37,960 --> 01:32:41,200
Speaker 1: down the line were this is a long fight. Friends,

1558
01:32:41,400 --> 01:32:45,920
Speaker 1: don't don't feel dejected. Don't feel like you know all

1559
01:32:46,120 --> 01:32:48,160
Speaker 1: is lost right now, because I understand there's a tough

1560
01:32:48,200 --> 01:32:52,840
Speaker 1: week with the Electoral Electoral College today and this is

1561
01:32:52,880 --> 01:32:55,880
Speaker 1: not an easy time. But we still have a lot

1562
01:32:55,960 --> 01:32:58,920
Speaker 1: of fights ahead and the Democrats are going to have

1563
01:32:59,040 --> 01:33:01,200
Speaker 1: their handsful, and I hope this Durham probe makes things

1564
01:33:01,240 --> 01:33:03,400
Speaker 1: a whole lot more challenging for them, that's for sure.

1577
01:34:07,120 --> 01:34:11,680
Speaker 1: let's get to it. Gina, Hi again, Buck. A few

1578
01:34:11,760 --> 01:34:14,240
Speaker 1: days ago you mentioned our governor Polis and his wife

1579
01:34:14,320 --> 01:34:17,200
Speaker 1: both had COVID. I need to correct on one point

1580
01:34:17,240 --> 01:34:19,920
Speaker 1: of your story. He actually has a husband. Our media

1581
01:34:19,960 --> 01:34:22,120
Speaker 1: pushed very hard to elect him as the first gay

1582
01:34:22,320 --> 01:34:25,360
Speaker 1: governor in history. He's also very wealthy and refused to

1583
01:34:25,439 --> 01:34:27,240
Speaker 1: live in the governor's mansion as he wanted to stay

1584
01:34:27,320 --> 01:34:30,599
Speaker 1: in his family compound in Boulder. In Polis, the left

1585
01:34:30,600 --> 01:34:32,960
Speaker 1: has not only scored big with identity politics, but also

1586
01:34:33,080 --> 01:34:36,960
Speaker 1: as an elitist as well. He is truly insufferable, and

1587
01:34:37,120 --> 01:34:39,240
Speaker 1: his edicts have ravaged our economy to what may be

1588
01:34:39,320 --> 01:34:41,680
Speaker 1: a point of no return. Anyway, I just wanted to

1589
01:34:41,720 --> 01:34:43,920
Speaker 1: point it out. Although I agonize over correcting you, I

1590
01:34:43,960 --> 01:34:46,080
Speaker 1: always hang on your every word shield side. Well, Gina,

1591
01:34:46,120 --> 01:34:48,400
Speaker 1: thank you so much. And yeah, I did not know that,

1592
01:34:48,720 --> 01:34:52,000
Speaker 1: so I think I must have read partner or something,

1593
01:34:52,280 --> 01:34:56,360
Speaker 1: and I just my mind went to wife. But apparently

1594
01:34:56,439 --> 01:34:58,880
Speaker 1: he's married married to a man. I did not know that,

1595
01:34:58,960 --> 01:35:02,000
Speaker 1: So thank you for the correct My understanding is that

1596
01:35:02,120 --> 01:35:06,200
Speaker 1: he's not a good governor. But I know our large

1597
01:35:06,360 --> 01:35:09,360
Speaker 1: Colorado based audience will write in and tell me more

1598
01:35:09,400 --> 01:35:12,920
Speaker 1: about why he is not a particularly good governor. It's

1599
01:35:12,920 --> 01:35:16,800
Speaker 1: a shame. Colorado's pretty pretty blue. I mean, there's there's

1600
01:35:16,840 --> 01:35:19,200
Speaker 1: definitely some red in it, but it's people think of

1601
01:35:19,240 --> 01:35:21,439
Speaker 1: it now is lost to the loss of the Libs,

1602
01:35:22,520 --> 01:35:24,360
Speaker 1: which is a shame. I never really spend any time

1603
01:35:24,400 --> 01:35:28,719
Speaker 1: in Colorado. I'd like to get out there, Evan hey Buck.

1604
01:35:28,960 --> 01:35:32,560
Speaker 1: On top of all the various undermining of the vaccine,

1605
01:35:32,600 --> 01:35:34,400
Speaker 1: I think one of the most dangerous things the media

1606
01:35:34,520 --> 01:35:38,679
Speaker 1: is doing is villainizing those who aren't following the media's

1607
01:35:38,720 --> 01:35:41,800
Speaker 1: demands and precautions. My mother caught COVID at the beginning

1608
01:35:41,800 --> 01:35:44,360
Speaker 1: of November while wearing a mask, and she was mortified

1609
01:35:44,400 --> 01:35:47,599
Speaker 1: and embarrassed to tell anyone. She was afraid that if

1610
01:35:47,640 --> 01:35:49,959
Speaker 1: she told people, they would think she was being reckless

1611
01:35:50,040 --> 01:35:52,400
Speaker 1: and lock and looked down on her. She wanted to

1612
01:35:52,439 --> 01:35:54,839
Speaker 1: continue on her life as best she could not tell anyone,

1613
01:35:54,920 --> 01:35:58,240
Speaker 1: which which would then continue to spread. I convinced her

1614
01:35:58,280 --> 01:36:00,880
Speaker 1: to stay home and safe and thank she's all better now.

1615
01:36:01,280 --> 01:36:04,200
Speaker 1: But the media is making those who contract COVID nineteen

1616
01:36:04,320 --> 01:36:06,800
Speaker 1: feel guilty as if they've done something wrong. This isn't

1617
01:36:06,840 --> 01:36:11,040
Speaker 1: helping contain it, it's helping too secretly spread it. Yeah, Evan,

1618
01:36:11,080 --> 01:36:13,759
Speaker 1: I mean this. You're right about there being this weird

1619
01:36:13,960 --> 01:36:18,719
Speaker 1: COVID shaming that goes on where especially if your thought

1620
01:36:18,760 --> 01:36:21,040
Speaker 1: of as somebody who's conservative, it's like you got COVID

1621
01:36:21,560 --> 01:36:24,679
Speaker 1: because of what you've done, or you deserve it. Most

1622
01:36:24,760 --> 01:36:26,920
Speaker 1: of the people that are getting COVID across the country

1623
01:36:28,120 --> 01:36:31,840
Speaker 1: are mask wearing lockdown advocates, because that's most of the

1624
01:36:31,880 --> 01:36:36,760
Speaker 1: people across the country period. There's absolutely zero correlation. There's

1625
01:36:36,840 --> 01:36:40,559
Speaker 1: zero evidence whatsoever to suggest that the people who are

1626
01:36:40,600 --> 01:36:43,800
Speaker 1: getting sick are are getting sick because they've made some

1627
01:36:43,920 --> 01:36:46,120
Speaker 1: kind of a personal choice, or they're being your response

1628
01:36:46,240 --> 01:36:48,840
Speaker 1: or anything like that at all. But whenever a Republican

1629
01:36:48,920 --> 01:36:51,840
Speaker 1: gets it, as you've seen, whether it's Trump or Chris

1630
01:36:51,960 --> 01:36:57,120
Speaker 1: Christi or any Republican gets COVID nineteen, it's it's that

1631
01:36:57,240 --> 01:37:01,920
Speaker 1: person's fault. But when a Democrat gets it, Northam and

1632
01:37:02,000 --> 01:37:05,640
Speaker 1: Virginia got it. You know, Polis, the governor Colorado, got

1633
01:37:05,680 --> 01:37:09,840
Speaker 1: every lots of down. I think Wolf the governor of Pennsylvania,

1634
01:37:09,880 --> 01:37:13,320
Speaker 1: I think that he's had COVID. Whenever they get it,

1635
01:37:13,400 --> 01:37:16,400
Speaker 1: it's just, oh, man, what a contagious virus. Yeah, really tough,

1636
01:37:17,040 --> 01:37:20,840
Speaker 1: really tough to keep yourself healthy. But when Republican gets it, it's, oh,

1637
01:37:21,040 --> 01:37:26,120
Speaker 1: you weren't masking enough. Well, it's just not true. I

1638
01:37:26,200 --> 01:37:28,400
Speaker 1: wonder you know, the UK is going into even more

1639
01:37:28,520 --> 01:37:32,120
Speaker 1: extreme lockdown right now, so at least we know it's

1640
01:37:32,200 --> 01:37:36,120
Speaker 1: not Trump's fault. There, it's not Trump's fault that the

1641
01:37:36,200 --> 01:37:38,760
Speaker 1: UK is going London, I should say, sorry, London's going

1642
01:37:38,840 --> 01:37:41,640
Speaker 1: into an even tougher tier of lockdown. Down. I mean,

1643
01:37:41,680 --> 01:37:45,639
Speaker 1: we're apparently not allowed to notice that increased lockdown measures

1644
01:37:45,720 --> 01:37:48,080
Speaker 1: work so well. They seem to always result in further

1645
01:37:48,200 --> 01:37:52,360
Speaker 1: lockdown measures. That's how good the lockdowns are. Let's go

1646
01:37:52,439 --> 01:37:55,200
Speaker 1: into phase two, and then we always end up going

1647
01:37:55,240 --> 01:37:57,680
Speaker 1: into phase three, and then you know when we sit

1648
01:37:57,760 --> 01:38:00,800
Speaker 1: there for a while. At point are we allowed to

1649
01:38:00,880 --> 01:38:05,799
Speaker 1: notice this without being kicked off of social media? Without

1650
01:38:05,920 --> 01:38:08,280
Speaker 1: being told that it's reckless to point any of this out.

1651
01:38:08,400 --> 01:38:10,960
Speaker 1: I just want to know, you know, when is it

1652
01:38:11,040 --> 01:38:14,400
Speaker 1: okay to say, yeah, it turns out that maybe the

1653
01:38:14,439 --> 01:38:20,519
Speaker 1: stuff is not working as planned. Jim Hey bucket Mark.

1654
01:38:20,560 --> 01:38:25,120
Speaker 1: I'm a medical laboratory scientist in Michigan. Just listen to

1655
01:38:25,320 --> 01:38:27,639
Speaker 1: Thursday's show when he talked about the flu cases this year.

1656
01:38:27,640 --> 01:38:29,320
Speaker 1: I can give you the reason why flu cases are

1657
01:38:29,320 --> 01:38:32,479
Speaker 1: so low. It's an easy answer. We aren't testing for it.

1658
01:38:33,400 --> 01:38:35,920
Speaker 1: My lab, which is in a hospital, usually starts testing

1659
01:38:35,960 --> 01:38:39,000
Speaker 1: for it in mid November and runs hundreds of tests

1660
01:38:39,080 --> 01:38:42,320
Speaker 1: a week in a normal year. As of today, December eleven,

1661
01:38:42,400 --> 01:38:45,479
Speaker 1: twenty twenty, we have yet to run our first test.

1662
01:38:45,960 --> 01:38:48,160
Speaker 1: Hope that helps answer your question. She'll tie. I keep

1663
01:38:48,200 --> 01:38:51,280
Speaker 1: fighting the good fight, fellow patriots. Jim, thank you so much. Yes,

1664
01:38:51,400 --> 01:38:54,640
Speaker 1: that that certainly does answer. That's very very helpful, and

1665
01:38:54,880 --> 01:38:58,280
Speaker 1: I want to know things like that. But then what

1666
01:38:58,400 --> 01:39:01,400
Speaker 1: I also would want to know is how could they

1667
01:39:01,520 --> 01:39:06,240
Speaker 1: tell is there any reason that someone could not have

1668
01:39:07,320 --> 01:39:11,640
Speaker 1: COVID and the flu at the same time. Is there

1669
01:39:11,680 --> 01:39:15,280
Speaker 1: any reason, because you know, especially as we hear that

1670
01:39:15,360 --> 01:39:19,360
Speaker 1: that the flu you could have for you know, rather

1671
01:39:19,439 --> 01:39:21,680
Speaker 1: the COVID you could have for a few weeks, a

1672
01:39:21,760 --> 01:39:25,360
Speaker 1: couple of weeks at least, and you know, are there

1673
01:39:25,439 --> 01:39:27,960
Speaker 1: people who are coming back positive on Now? When I

1674
01:39:28,040 --> 01:39:29,880
Speaker 1: say have it, I don't necessarily mean having an acting

1675
01:39:29,920 --> 01:39:32,680
Speaker 1: and infection. But could Here's what I want to know,

1676
01:39:32,760 --> 01:39:36,080
Speaker 1: And I'm asking a question because I don't know. But

1677
01:39:36,200 --> 01:39:38,200
Speaker 1: if we think this thing through it maybe maybe Jim

1678
01:39:38,280 --> 01:39:40,000
Speaker 1: can write in and tell me this as well as

1679
01:39:40,040 --> 01:39:42,960
Speaker 1: many other medical experts who I know listen to this show.

1680
01:39:44,320 --> 01:39:46,360
Speaker 1: We've got some world class doctors to listen to the show.

1681
01:39:46,400 --> 01:39:48,840
Speaker 1: It's great. I mean, Team Buck. Is this repository of

1682
01:39:48,920 --> 01:39:53,360
Speaker 1: incredible knowledge? Would it be possible that you get a

1683
01:39:53,439 --> 01:40:00,080
Speaker 1: positive PCR back on a patient who has symptoms that

1684
01:40:00,360 --> 01:40:03,360
Speaker 1: could be symptoms that are being called covid? I'm sorry,

1685
01:40:03,560 --> 01:40:07,160
Speaker 1: positive PCR with symptoms that could either be COVID or

1686
01:40:07,360 --> 01:40:10,320
Speaker 1: the flu, and we don't test for the flu, and

1687
01:40:10,439 --> 01:40:13,880
Speaker 1: we assume the person dying is dying from COVID when

1688
01:40:13,880 --> 01:40:16,919
Speaker 1: they're actually dying from a flu infection, but they're positive

1689
01:40:16,960 --> 01:40:19,720
Speaker 1: on the COVID test because the PCR is picking up

1690
01:40:20,560 --> 01:40:25,120
Speaker 1: in earlier infection. Is that possible. It's not possible that

1691
01:40:25,160 --> 01:40:28,720
Speaker 1: the flu is gone that we know. So if we're

1692
01:40:28,760 --> 01:40:31,400
Speaker 1: not testing for it, well, then that means that there

1693
01:40:31,439 --> 01:40:33,439
Speaker 1: are people who have it and aren't dying from it,

1694
01:40:33,479 --> 01:40:36,000
Speaker 1: because that happens every year in this country who are

1695
01:40:36,120 --> 01:40:39,840
Speaker 1: not being marked as flu deaths. That has to be

1696
01:40:39,960 --> 01:40:44,320
Speaker 1: That just logically follows, right, So we need to look

1697
01:40:44,360 --> 01:40:48,120
Speaker 1: a little bit more at this and understand these numbers better,

1698
01:40:48,200 --> 01:40:50,120
Speaker 1: because if there's just no testing for flu going on

1699
01:40:50,240 --> 01:40:52,759
Speaker 1: nationwide right now, because there's all this focus on COVID testing,

1700
01:40:53,640 --> 01:40:56,679
Speaker 1: it seems to me like a near certainty we must

1701
01:40:56,760 --> 01:40:59,439
Speaker 1: then be counting some flu deaths as COVID deaths. I'm

1702
01:40:59,439 --> 01:41:02,240
Speaker 1: not saying, I'm not saying it's a conspiracy, but there

1703
01:41:02,320 --> 01:41:04,280
Speaker 1: must be some overlap, and I wonder if it's a

1704
01:41:04,320 --> 01:41:10,519
Speaker 1: substantial overlap. I would wager I would bet that it

1705
01:41:10,800 --> 01:41:14,599
Speaker 1: probably is. But Jim, thanks again so much for writing. Again,

1706
01:41:15,560 --> 01:41:19,320
Speaker 1: Jay writes in Buck I'm sick of all the secession talk.

1707
01:41:20,040 --> 01:41:23,040
Speaker 1: Secession is easy, It's the coward's way. I have long

1708
01:41:23,120 --> 01:41:27,120
Speaker 1: complained about conservatives moving from liberal states to more conservative states.

1709
01:41:27,479 --> 01:41:31,160
Speaker 1: This action poses several problems. For one, it abandons all

1710
01:41:31,200 --> 01:41:33,280
Speaker 1: of the freedom loving Americans in blue states who for

1711
01:41:33,400 --> 01:41:36,320
Speaker 1: multiple reasons can't move. But even more, it makes those

1712
01:41:36,360 --> 01:41:39,200
Speaker 1: states even more liberal as conservatives leave, and the more

1713
01:41:39,280 --> 01:41:42,120
Speaker 1: liberal a place becomes, the more psycho left it becomes.

1714
01:41:42,680 --> 01:41:45,519
Speaker 1: I'm originally from California, and I moved to Colorado ten

1715
01:41:45,640 --> 01:41:48,160
Speaker 1: years ago for work and a change of scenery, not

1716
01:41:48,280 --> 01:41:52,599
Speaker 1: for politics. California hasn't always been so crazy left. Even

1717
01:41:52,640 --> 01:41:55,280
Speaker 1: just fifteen years ago, it wasn't so bad. There were

1718
01:41:55,360 --> 01:41:57,840
Speaker 1: bad areas, but there were enough conservatives to keep the

1719
01:41:57,920 --> 01:42:01,320
Speaker 1: crazy in check. Most of those I know who moves

1720
01:42:01,360 --> 01:42:04,240
Speaker 1: said they were simply tired of fighting. And that's the problem.

1721
01:42:04,680 --> 01:42:06,920
Speaker 1: I'm sorry to say it, but conservatives and Republicans are

1722
01:42:06,960 --> 01:42:10,200
Speaker 1: getting lazy. Liberals win because they fight for what they believe.

1723
01:42:10,280 --> 01:42:12,840
Speaker 1: They take the effort we don't, and it's evident in

1724
01:42:12,880 --> 01:42:15,200
Speaker 1: our politics. We need to stand now to preserve the Union,

1725
01:42:15,240 --> 01:42:18,760
Speaker 1: not break it up. Don't take the easy way. Well, Jay,

1726
01:42:18,800 --> 01:42:20,720
Speaker 1: there's not going to be a secession And anyone who

1727
01:42:20,720 --> 01:42:22,240
Speaker 1: wants to get bad at me for saying that, can

1728
01:42:22,560 --> 01:42:23,680
Speaker 1: you know, we can come up with some kind of

1729
01:42:23,720 --> 01:42:25,160
Speaker 1: a bet and we'll see who's right. There's not going

1730
01:42:25,200 --> 01:42:28,120
Speaker 1: to be a secession movement. Okay. Republicans actually did very

1731
01:42:28,160 --> 01:42:31,120
Speaker 1: well in this last election, with the exception of Trump

1732
01:42:31,160 --> 01:42:34,479
Speaker 1: at the top of the ticket. That's it. It is true.

1733
01:42:35,000 --> 01:42:39,040
Speaker 1: Republicans did very well in state houses, governorships. Looks like

1734
01:42:39,160 --> 01:42:41,320
Speaker 1: we're hopefully and that's why I have such a focus

1735
01:42:41,400 --> 01:42:44,759
Speaker 1: on Georgia now hopefully going to retain control of the Senate.

1736
01:42:45,640 --> 01:42:49,160
Speaker 1: And you know, if you have Senate control, you might

1737
01:42:49,240 --> 01:42:53,320
Speaker 1: have a very kind of ineffective and mediocre at best

1738
01:42:54,280 --> 01:42:56,320
Speaker 1: first two years of a Biden presidency. And then I

1739
01:42:56,360 --> 01:42:57,760
Speaker 1: do think they're going to try to I think they're

1740
01:42:57,760 --> 01:42:59,360
Speaker 1: going to try to hand it off the Kamala Harris.

1741
01:43:00,320 --> 01:43:02,960
Speaker 1: I think that that is the plan. I think that's

1742
01:43:03,080 --> 01:43:05,640
Speaker 1: understood at some level. Maybe they don't hand it off

1743
01:43:05,680 --> 01:43:07,559
Speaker 1: in the first two years, maybe it's in year three

1744
01:43:07,680 --> 01:43:10,080
Speaker 1: or four. I don't know, but I think they are

1745
01:43:10,120 --> 01:43:13,760
Speaker 1: going to try to hand it off. And I would

1746
01:43:13,800 --> 01:43:17,040
Speaker 1: just say now that there are a lot of people

1747
01:43:17,160 --> 01:43:21,840
Speaker 1: who are who are very upset and they understand they

1748
01:43:22,120 --> 01:43:24,599
Speaker 1: see this as being a big threat to our country

1749
01:43:24,760 --> 01:43:28,759
Speaker 1: and they are angry but the election. I share those feelings,

1750
01:43:29,520 --> 01:43:32,240
Speaker 1: but I, unlike a lot of other people out there,

1751
01:43:33,000 --> 01:43:37,120
Speaker 1: I am not going to exploit the feelings of conservatives

1752
01:43:37,160 --> 01:43:39,560
Speaker 1: across the country for my own ends by trying to

1753
01:43:39,680 --> 01:43:43,360
Speaker 1: drive more audience. I mean, there's there's one there's one

1754
01:43:43,520 --> 01:43:46,439
Speaker 1: channel right now that's doing a lot of this where

1755
01:43:46,479 --> 01:43:49,439
Speaker 1: they're telling people we're gonna win, We're gonna win, don't worry,

1756
01:43:49,520 --> 01:43:54,760
Speaker 1: We're still gonna win. And it's it's not Fox. There's

1757
01:43:54,800 --> 01:43:56,840
Speaker 1: one channel where they're doing this, and I think that

1758
01:43:56,920 --> 01:43:59,439
Speaker 1: they're doing a disservice to people, but it's it's really

1759
01:43:59,560 --> 01:44:03,679
Speaker 1: just opportunism. I don't view this as principle. I don't

1760
01:44:03,760 --> 01:44:06,360
Speaker 1: view this as principle at this point. Right it was,

1761
01:44:06,479 --> 01:44:09,240
Speaker 1: it's up to the up to a certain phase. You know,

1762
01:44:09,360 --> 01:44:11,280
Speaker 1: you fight and you try to encourage the fight as

1763
01:44:11,360 --> 01:44:13,519
Speaker 1: much as you can. But beyond that, I think there

1764
01:44:13,520 --> 01:44:18,080
Speaker 1: are people who are exploiting our anger, our frustration. Are

1765
01:44:18,320 --> 01:44:22,280
Speaker 1: are knowing in our core that this election was shady,

1766
01:44:22,680 --> 01:44:25,320
Speaker 1: that there was fraud. People are exploiting this for their

1767
01:44:25,320 --> 01:44:27,920
Speaker 1: own purposes right now, and I don't like that. I

1768
01:44:28,000 --> 01:44:31,200
Speaker 1: cannot abide by that, and I won't do that. So

1769
01:44:31,320 --> 01:44:33,479
Speaker 1: those who are doing it right now because they're hoping

1770
01:44:33,520 --> 01:44:36,040
Speaker 1: to be in the good graces of the movement, so

1771
01:44:36,200 --> 01:44:41,639
Speaker 1: to speak, I think it's I think it's wrong. You're

1772
01:44:41,720 --> 01:44:44,400
Speaker 1: in the freedom Hud. This is the Buck Sex and

1773
01:44:44,479 --> 01:44:51,439
Speaker 1: Show podcast. All right, more roll call coming to us here.

1774
01:44:51,800 --> 01:44:54,439
Speaker 1: Z We've had ZV reading before. It's a fun name

1775
01:44:54,479 --> 01:44:58,040
Speaker 1: to say, Z rights. Hey, Buck. I'm no law expert,

1776
01:44:58,560 --> 01:45:00,679
Speaker 1: but I think the real problem is that the attorney

1777
01:45:00,720 --> 01:45:04,400
Speaker 1: general from Texas didn't request a reasonable remedy. If the

1778
01:45:04,479 --> 01:45:07,720
Speaker 1: accusations are correct, what can be done to fix it?

1779
01:45:08,240 --> 01:45:11,680
Speaker 1: At this point? Do the legitimate ballots still have integrity?

1780
01:45:12,080 --> 01:45:14,840
Speaker 1: Can they be isolated from the illegitimate ones? I doubt

1781
01:45:14,880 --> 01:45:19,040
Speaker 1: anything can now be rolled back or corrected. Let me

1782
01:45:19,080 --> 01:45:21,120
Speaker 1: start with this, as I know you wrote in with

1783
01:45:21,200 --> 01:45:26,280
Speaker 1: more than this, but no, I mean the Supreme Court

1784
01:45:26,400 --> 01:45:29,640
Speaker 1: ruling was that they didn't have standing. That essentially, a

1785
01:45:29,800 --> 01:45:33,040
Speaker 1: state cannot say we don't like what this other state

1786
01:45:33,120 --> 01:45:35,720
Speaker 1: did in their election practice and that we think that

1787
01:45:35,800 --> 01:45:40,120
Speaker 1: they allowed fraud. So we want you to invalidate that

1788
01:45:40,240 --> 01:45:43,000
Speaker 1: other states election. That essentially, they're not going to give

1789
01:45:43,200 --> 01:45:46,200
Speaker 1: some states the ability to try to veto the election

1790
01:45:46,320 --> 01:45:49,160
Speaker 1: processes and other states because it is left up to

1791
01:45:49,479 --> 01:45:53,080
Speaker 1: states to determine how their elections go. Right, That's the

1792
01:45:54,320 --> 01:45:57,479
Speaker 1: basic version. I think of what happened in the Supreme Court,

1793
01:45:58,200 --> 01:46:01,960
Speaker 1: and look, it's it was. It was always going to

1794
01:46:02,000 --> 01:46:03,560
Speaker 1: be a long shot because I remember, one of the

1795
01:46:03,640 --> 01:46:07,600
Speaker 1: problems we keep running up against here is that we

1796
01:46:07,840 --> 01:46:13,200
Speaker 1: know we know that the safeguards were removed. That's proven,

1797
01:46:13,640 --> 01:46:17,480
Speaker 1: and we know that there were a lot of irregular

1798
01:46:17,600 --> 01:46:24,200
Speaker 1: and sloppy and seemingly fraudulent procedures, but we because of

1799
01:46:24,240 --> 01:46:26,360
Speaker 1: the way it was set up, it's very hard to

1800
01:46:26,880 --> 01:46:34,519
Speaker 1: prove it right. So it's it's a situation where we

1801
01:46:35,200 --> 01:46:38,200
Speaker 1: know that they removed the ways that we'd be able

1802
01:46:38,280 --> 01:46:41,040
Speaker 1: to check on things, and now after the fact, we're

1803
01:46:41,080 --> 01:46:45,160
Speaker 1: trying to do those checks. Because it's I'm trying to

1804
01:46:45,200 --> 01:46:49,400
Speaker 1: think of a way to say this intelligently. Because it

1805
01:46:49,640 --> 01:46:53,360
Speaker 1: was easy for fraud to be committed here and for

1806
01:46:53,479 --> 01:46:56,080
Speaker 1: them to get away with it. That's not the same

1807
01:46:56,200 --> 01:46:59,000
Speaker 1: thing as being able to prove in accord. Here is

1808
01:46:59,120 --> 01:47:02,880
Speaker 1: the fraud being done right. What we're able to do

1809
01:47:03,160 --> 01:47:09,320
Speaker 1: is show that there was definitely opportunity for fraud, and

1810
01:47:09,560 --> 01:47:13,080
Speaker 1: that based on things like you know, what has been

1811
01:47:13,120 --> 01:47:15,920
Speaker 1: true about elections in previous years, it certainly looks like

1812
01:47:16,120 --> 01:47:20,240
Speaker 1: there was substantial fraud costing Trump the election, right the

1813
01:47:21,240 --> 01:47:23,960
Speaker 1: you know, for a perfect example is Georgia. I'd make

1814
01:47:24,040 --> 01:47:27,040
Speaker 1: some hard and fast cases and Georgia, there is no

1815
01:47:27,280 --> 01:47:32,800
Speaker 1: reasonable way to prove that two or three percent of

1816
01:47:33,520 --> 01:47:37,400
Speaker 1: mail in ballots in the last Georgia election were rejected

1817
01:47:37,479 --> 01:47:41,439
Speaker 1: and point zero three in this election were rejected. It's

1818
01:47:41,560 --> 01:47:44,639
Speaker 1: unreasonable to believe that you had one hundred one hundred

1819
01:47:44,680 --> 01:47:48,640
Speaker 1: times better voter practices this time around, especially with the

1820
01:47:48,720 --> 01:47:53,280
Speaker 1: expansion of mail in balloting across Georgia in the way

1821
01:47:53,320 --> 01:47:57,360
Speaker 1: that it happened. But we got to prove that there

1822
01:47:57,479 --> 01:48:00,760
Speaker 1: was actual that there was nefarious action going on. We

1823
01:48:00,880 --> 01:48:04,000
Speaker 1: have to prove it in a court. Right. Knowing something

1824
01:48:04,120 --> 01:48:05,840
Speaker 1: in your gut is not the same thing as being

1825
01:48:05,880 --> 01:48:07,920
Speaker 1: able to prove it in a court, and that's always

1826
01:48:07,960 --> 01:48:10,240
Speaker 1: been the challenge here. And then even beyond the proving

1827
01:48:10,280 --> 01:48:13,080
Speaker 1: in an accurt you have to have a judge who's

1828
01:48:13,080 --> 01:48:14,960
Speaker 1: willing to look at whatever evidence you have. I mean,

1829
01:48:15,200 --> 01:48:18,280
Speaker 1: judges are looking at these affidavits. I believe these people

1830
01:48:18,360 --> 01:48:21,479
Speaker 1: who are sending in or signing these affidavits, But the

1831
01:48:21,600 --> 01:48:24,559
Speaker 1: judge is going to effectively say it's your word against theirs,

1832
01:48:25,520 --> 01:48:28,479
Speaker 1: not gonna overturn an election on that. That's the problem.

1833
01:48:29,120 --> 01:48:30,800
Speaker 1: This is what I've seen all along, is what I'm saying.

1834
01:48:30,960 --> 01:48:32,439
Speaker 1: And I know people don't want to hear this. They

1835
01:48:32,520 --> 01:48:34,879
Speaker 1: keep saying, Oh, don't worry, you know, unleash the kraken.

1836
01:48:35,880 --> 01:48:39,559
Speaker 1: The Kraken's not gonna cut it, folks. It's not happening.

1837
01:48:40,560 --> 01:48:43,760
Speaker 1: And it makes me mad. I'm furious about it. But

1838
01:48:44,479 --> 01:48:48,080
Speaker 1: that's where we are. That's where we are now. We

1839
01:48:48,160 --> 01:48:51,000
Speaker 1: should be thinking about what we can do based on

1840
01:48:51,080 --> 01:48:56,080
Speaker 1: where we are today, how we fight now going forward? Anyways?

1841
01:48:56,160 --> 01:48:59,280
Speaker 1: V Rights. Can the Supreme Court force Congress to vote

1842
01:48:59,680 --> 01:49:02,479
Speaker 1: for the president, with the Senate then choosing the vice president?

1843
01:49:02,880 --> 01:49:06,240
Speaker 1: So we would so we will have a Harris Trump administration,

1844
01:49:06,320 --> 01:49:10,320
Speaker 1: assuming Republicans retain their majority. Would this be a better outcome?

1845
01:49:10,439 --> 01:49:12,599
Speaker 1: I can see why Scotus backed out of this one.

1846
01:49:15,040 --> 01:49:17,640
Speaker 1: Can the Supreme Court force Congress to vote for the

1847
01:49:17,720 --> 01:49:21,439
Speaker 1: president with the Senate then choosing the Vice President as Z.

1848
01:49:21,680 --> 01:49:24,240
Speaker 1: That's not gonna I mean again, that's it's interesting. It's

1849
01:49:24,280 --> 01:49:30,920
Speaker 1: an interesting question. It's not going to happen. Andy writes, Hey,

1850
01:49:30,960 --> 01:49:32,880
Speaker 1: Buck and Mark, with all the craziest going on, we

1851
01:49:32,920 --> 01:49:34,720
Speaker 1: can either get angry and lash out. We can turn

1852
01:49:34,800 --> 01:49:38,160
Speaker 1: to God. I chose the latter. I stopped listening to

1853
01:49:38,160 --> 01:49:40,120
Speaker 1: a lot of my political podcast during work, but I

1854
01:49:40,160 --> 01:49:42,519
Speaker 1: still listen to the Buck Sexton Show, and for the

1855
01:49:42,640 --> 01:49:44,840
Speaker 1: last twenty minutes of my day, I started reading the Bible.

1856
01:49:44,880 --> 01:49:46,519
Speaker 1: I have to say every time I read, I actually

1857
01:49:46,560 --> 01:49:49,000
Speaker 1: start to feel better. I get a good feeling about life.

1858
01:49:49,360 --> 01:49:51,080
Speaker 1: We would all turn back to our creator and stop

1859
01:49:51,120 --> 01:49:52,680
Speaker 1: denying he exists. I think the world would be in

1860
01:49:52,720 --> 01:49:54,360
Speaker 1: a much better place for me. It works. I know

1861
01:49:54,479 --> 01:49:57,080
Speaker 1: it can't be alone. God bless Buck, Mark, have a

1862
01:49:57,120 --> 01:50:00,280
Speaker 1: great Christmas in Hanakah. Andy, Thanks so much. I'm with

1863
01:50:00,400 --> 01:50:02,280
Speaker 1: you on that. You know now we've got to look

1864
01:50:02,320 --> 01:50:04,679
Speaker 1: inward a bit. We look inward to God and also

1865
01:50:04,760 --> 01:50:07,320
Speaker 1: turn to each other. We are in this together. We

1866
01:50:07,400 --> 01:50:10,920
Speaker 1: will continue this fight. We know that we have right

1867
01:50:11,080 --> 01:50:15,639
Speaker 1: on our side, and we will not give up until tomorrow. Friends,

1868
