Speaker 1: This is Buck's first thoughts. The news you need to
Speaker 1: get for your day in forty five minutes. Make sure
Speaker 1: you subscribe on the iHeart app before wherever you get
Speaker 1: your podcasts. Well after the Democrat speech that Biden gave
Speaker 1: where he was telling us he was going to spend
Speaker 1: trillions of dollars, six trillion dollars, I think we all
Speaker 1: know that they are more or less embracing modern monetary theory.
Speaker 1: They think that they can spend whatever they want to spend,
Speaker 1: and it's a way of bolstering their political prospects. They're
Speaker 1: redistributing wealth, they're adhering to Marxist principles and all of this.
Speaker 1: Maybe we should be concerned about where this is going
Speaker 1: for the economy, folks. I feel like that's the only
Speaker 1: way that the American people will enough Americans will wake
Speaker 1: up to what's really going on here is when we
Speaker 1: see the real effect of some of these policies, and
Speaker 1: that's going to be hitting a lot of folks in
Speaker 1: their bank counts. But did you know that real gold
Speaker 1: and silver can be delivered to your door. This is
Speaker 1: a means of preparing for inflation and rough economic times.
Speaker 1: You can diversify your portfolio. You can actually have a
Speaker 1: real store of wealth or value with real gold and silver,
Speaker 1: and it can be placed right into your IRA air
Speaker 1: four oh one k tax free and penalty free. That's right,
Speaker 1: real gold and silver in your hands or your retirement accounts.
Speaker 1: Why should you own real gold and silver because they
Speaker 1: both hold value, especially when markets decline or fail. You
Speaker 1: want a little bit of an insurance, a little bit
Speaker 1: of a safety, little margin of error for the economy.
Speaker 1: With this bind administration, you need real gold and silver
Speaker 1: in your hands or in your IRA or both. The
Speaker 1: Oxford Gold Group will beat any competitor's price on gold, silver,

Speaker 1: was difficult to stay awake last night during the Joe
Speaker 1: Biden speech. It was boring. There were just some moments
Speaker 1: where you were jolted out of that extreme weariness by
Speaker 1: something particularly left wing or disingenuous or dishonest. Nothing about
Speaker 1: the speech that Biden gave. The address to a joint
Speaker 1: session of Congress, not a State of the Union, but
Speaker 1: basically a state of the Union. Nothing inspiring, nothing even
Speaker 1: all that memorable. But the journals, like the trained seals,
Speaker 1: they are clapping. They want you to believe that everybody
Speaker 1: thought the speech was amazing. Here's CBS telling you their
Speaker 1: polls say eighty five percent of viewers love Biden speech.
Speaker 1: Play three. What we did was we talked to we
Speaker 1: talked to a sample representative sample of the audience nationwide
Speaker 1: to watch the speech, and they liked what they heard.
Speaker 1: We got eighty five percent approving of the speech. Now,
Speaker 1: I've got to add right off the bat here that,
Speaker 1: as is typical with presidential speeches, a lot of his
Speaker 1: own partisans made up the bulk of the audience. So
Speaker 1: this audience was majority Democrats watching it. And you for context,
Speaker 1: back when President Trump was giving speeches, a lot of
Speaker 1: Republicans watched those. So that's you've got to know that
Speaker 1: behind these numbers. But that said, the audience said that
Speaker 1: they liked what they heard, and then how did they
Speaker 1: describe it? Well, this is a word we've found in
Speaker 1: other polling and again and this one people using to
Speaker 1: describe Joe Biden presidential caring. In this case, they thought
Speaker 1: the speech, many thought the speech was inspiring. And then
Speaker 1: this one folks have been talking about where his plans,
Speaker 1: you know, big, were the things that people wanted. And
Speaker 1: this word bold was used by eighty percent of the
Speaker 1: audience too, so to that extent, and he kind of
Speaker 1: hit his mark if he wanted to convey bold, it
Speaker 1: seems like he did. Elaine, So a bunch of Democrats
Speaker 1: like the Biden's speech just really that's the takeaway. The
Speaker 1: headline they give you is eighty five percent of viewers
Speaker 1: approve of Biden's speech. All right, what percentage of those
Speaker 1: viewers are actually Democrats who voted for Biden? Right at
Speaker 1: We're at fifty fifty fifty in terms of the last election,
Speaker 1: And you don't get that sense from Joe Biden right now.
Speaker 1: He seems to believe he has a mandate despite having
Speaker 1: a very narrow election win. He seems to believe that
Speaker 1: he has a mandated all of this, which I think
Speaker 1: is just delusional, but it's also the way the Democrats
Speaker 1: approach everything. They are not scared of using power. They
Speaker 1: will use power in whatever way they can, as long
Speaker 1: as it goes toward their ultimate goals, and they'll steamroll
Speaker 1: the other side. And it doesn't matter that when they're
Speaker 1: out of power they talk about bipartisan ship and bringing
Speaker 1: both sides together and common sense reforms and all this stuff.
Speaker 1: The moment that they're in charge, it's their way or
Speaker 1: the highway. And you got a lot of that last night.
Speaker 1: There's another a trick Biden borrowed from Obamaism, if you will,
Speaker 1: which is to say that everything was terrible, the worst
Speaker 1: ever before he came into office. Obama did this all
Speaker 1: the time. Biden did this last night Play eight. We
Speaker 1: all know life can knock us down, but in America,
Speaker 1: we never ever ever stay down. Americans always get up. Today,
Speaker 1: That's what we're doing. America's rising to new choosing hope
Speaker 1: over fear, truth overlies, and light over darkness. After one
Speaker 1: hundred days of rescuing renewal, America is ready for takeoff.
Speaker 1: In my view, we're working again, dreaming again, discovering again,
Speaker 1: and leading the world again. We have shown each other
Speaker 1: and the world that there's no quit in America. None
Speaker 1: one hundred days ago, America's house was on fire. We
Speaker 1: had to act, and thanks the extraordinary leadership of Speaker Pelosi,
Speaker 1: Majority Leader Schumer, and the overwhelming support of the American people, Democrats, Independence,
Speaker 1: and Republicans, we did act. We don't support what this
Speaker 1: guy's done. What is he talking about? It's like make believe.
Speaker 1: It's as though he's just sketching out a fantasy for
Speaker 1: all to listen to here. Yes, that's right, those great statesman,
Speaker 1: Stateswoman Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer. Sure they're really all
Speaker 1: about rescuing America. I I know, it's like we're living
Speaker 1: in two different countries, two different universes right now, between
Speaker 1: Democrats and Republicans. This old buffoon who really with his
Speaker 1: every word, I just think this is a guy who's
Speaker 1: trying to sell me a you know, nineteen eighty five
Speaker 1: Dodge Dart or something with one hundred and ninety thousand
Speaker 1: miles on it and some some really shaky engine stuff
Speaker 1: going on, but telling me, oh, she sure know, she
Speaker 1: purrs like a kitten. You're doing it. She's great. You
Speaker 1: know you're gonna got another one hundred thousand miles and
Speaker 1: this one no problem. Sure you do he's just so slimy,
Speaker 1: and it's all so false. He's just the party man,
Speaker 1: It's all he's ever been. Doesn't have any principles, doesn't
Speaker 1: have any ideas. He just mouths the preferred slogans of
Speaker 1: the leftist overlords around him, the puppeteer years who actually
Speaker 1: call the shots and make him dance to the demanded tune.
Speaker 1: We saw plenty of that going on. We saw plenty
Speaker 1: of borrowing from Obamaism as well, the creation of strong men,
Speaker 1: the false urgency of now now, now, we must go.
Speaker 1: We must do things as quickly as possible. The world
Speaker 1: will not wait. Play nine. Investments in jobs and infrastructure
Speaker 1: like the ones we're talking about have often had bipartisan
Speaker 1: support in the past. Vice President Harris and I met regularly,
Speaker 1: and Neil will also the Democrats and Republics and discuss
Speaker 1: the job's time. And I applaud a group of Republican
Speaker 1: Senators who just put forward their own proposals. So let's
Speaker 1: get to work. I wanted to lay out before the
Speaker 1: Congress my plan before we got into the deep discussions.
Speaker 1: I like to meet with those who have ideas that
Speaker 1: are different, they think are better. I welcome those ideas.
Speaker 1: But the rest of the world is not waiting for us.
Speaker 1: I just want to be clear from my perspective, doing
Speaker 1: nothing is not an option. Doing nothing about what exactly spending?
Speaker 1: Is it? Between doing nothing and six trillion dollars of spending?
Speaker 1: Is that what we're really talking about. That's in addition
Speaker 1: to what the federal government was already planning to spend.
Speaker 1: But if you were, if you were watching it, and
Speaker 1: I doubt many of you were, because why Biden's speech
Speaker 1: had the perfect optics for this presidency. It was all
Speaker 1: about the realization of a one party state. Republicans are
Speaker 1: to be ignored and suppressed and lied to until they
Speaker 1: just don't exist. No descent, no compromise, no good faith,
Speaker 1: good old Scranton Joe. That's what was being offered up
Speaker 1: last night. That and Joe Biden is basically Santa Claus
Speaker 1: without the red cheeks and the jolly belly full of jelly, right,
Speaker 1: I mean, Joe, Joe Biden is just out there promising
Speaker 1: to give everybody all this stuff. You know, we're gonna
Speaker 1: give you a free childcare, and we're gonna give you
Speaker 1: free healthcare. We're gonna give you free you know, free
Speaker 1: free everything, free, free years, two years of college, paid leave,
Speaker 1: all these things. Well, this is what you get when
Speaker 1: you have somebody who's been drawing a paycheck from the public,
Speaker 1: from the taxpayer for his entire adult life, has no
Speaker 1: idea how a business actually functions, doesn't know what it
Speaker 1: is to have to engage in competition in the marketplace today.
Speaker 1: I mean, Joe Biden thinks marketplace competition is when you
Speaker 1: try to get a higher bribe to be on the
Speaker 1: board of Barisma. Because daddy's the vice president, he thinks
Speaker 1: that's how the market works. And unfortunately, because Democrats are
Speaker 1: in charge, in a sense, he's right. These days, it
Speaker 1: does feel like there are two sets of rules. Something
Speaker 1: will continue to talk about here, But there was simply
Speaker 1: nothing about Joe Biden's speech last night that was memorable, inspiring,
Speaker 1: even interesting. It's just we're going to tax rich people
Speaker 1: to pay for all this stuff that we want to
Speaker 1: give to other people because we promise it'll be really
Speaker 1: good and deficient and make everything better. There's no downside,
Speaker 1: there's no trade off. That's one of the ultimate false
Speaker 1: promises that's at the heart of the Democrat Party today,
Speaker 1: that there will be no trade offs with any of this.
Speaker 1: It's just all a question of stopping those greedy Republicans
Speaker 1: from being so greedy. I'm going to give all this
Speaker 1: stuff to other people. Well, there's one thing though, that
Speaker 1: Joe Biden, I will say, does have a lot of
Speaker 1: expertise on, and that is the price that China is
Speaker 1: willing to pay, literally to destroy America, to undermine America.
Speaker 1: Joe knows this personally. If you're catching my drift. He
Speaker 1: talked about how he's going to stand up to China.
Speaker 1: Didn't mention Taiwan though, did he play seven and my
Speaker 1: discussion as President she I told him we welcome the competition.
Speaker 1: We're not looking for conflict. But I made absolutely clear
Speaker 1: that we will defend America's interest across the board. America
Speaker 1: will stand up to unfair trade practices and undercut American
Speaker 1: workers and American industries, like subsidies from state to state
Speaker 1: owned operations and enterprises, and the theft from American technology
Speaker 1: intellectual property. I also told President she that will maintain
Speaker 1: a strong military presence in the Indo Pacific, just as
Speaker 1: we do for NATO in Europe, not to start a conflict,
Speaker 1: but to prevent one. Remember Biden has been reliably consistently
Speaker 1: on foreign policy decisions for the last forty years. Everyone
Speaker 1: on both sides of the al knows that, but they
Speaker 1: can't say that now because he's their guy, he's the
Speaker 1: puppet in chief. His disconnect from economic and mathematical reality
Speaker 1: is almost impressive. I mean, the delusion is so fanciful
Speaker 1: that it's fascinating. And ultimately, what you saw on display
Speaker 1: last night was that President Joe Biden is such a shameless,
Speaker 1: self advancing, disingenuous mediocrity it's depressing to watch. I mean,
Speaker 1: at least a President Sanders would have been somewhat amusing
Speaker 1: as he tried to drag America toward communism. Today, shoes
Speaker 1: are being taught that the color of their skin defines
Speaker 1: them again, and if they look a certain way, they're
Speaker 1: an oppressor. From colleges to corporations to our culture, people
Speaker 1: are making money and gaining power by pretending he haven't
Speaker 1: made any progress at all, by dumpling down on the
Speaker 1: divisions we've worked so hard to heal. You know this
Speaker 1: stuff is wrong, hear me. Clearly, America is not a
Speaker 1: racist country. It's backwards to fight discrimination with different types
Speaker 1: of discrimination and it's wrong to try to use our
Speaker 1: painful path to dishonestly shut down debates in the present.
Speaker 1: The Internet practically exploded when Senator Tim Scott said America
Speaker 1: is not a racist country. Oh my gosh, well, how
Speaker 1: could heal all the libs, all the self indulgent libs
Speaker 1: who walk around virtue signaling, with their BLM hashtags, with
Speaker 1: their black squares on Instagram, all these things they do
Speaker 1: that cost them nothing, but they think is so strong
Speaker 1: and brave. They said, how dare he say it's not
Speaker 1: a racist country? Then they of course transition to you know,
Speaker 1: he says racism doesn't exist. That's not what he said.
Speaker 1: There's not a racist country. There are racists in America.
Speaker 1: There are racists in every country, and there are racists
Speaker 1: of every race. But the left doesn't believe that here.
Speaker 1: It's all it's all about white supremacy in America, and
Speaker 1: the system is white supremacist. That's what they tell us. Ah, okay, okay, yes,
Speaker 1: the white supremacist system in America that ensures that Asian
Speaker 1: Americans have the highest per capital wealth and the lowest
Speaker 1: rates of incarceration of any major ethnic group in the population. Right,
Speaker 1: that's that's our white supremacist system in action. They say, Look,
Speaker 1: Senator Tim Scott Diday a sound, solid job in their response,
Speaker 1: it's never easy because you're not the president, right, You're
Speaker 1: not speaking from that bully pulpit. Scott did a good job.
Speaker 1: And you know this because the left freaked out at
Speaker 1: him and attacked him in the most vicious way they
Speaker 1: had on Twitter for hours after the speech. Remember Twitter's
Speaker 1: all about making sure there's no hate and making sure
Speaker 1: that you know there's there's basic respect on the platform.
Speaker 1: Hashtag uncle Tim. We all know the reference they were making.
Speaker 1: Hashtag uncle Tim was trending on Twitter for hours after
Speaker 1: the speech. Twitter let that trend did not shut that down.
Speaker 1: But it's just a reminder as well that Democrats don't
Speaker 1: understand the racist mentality of thinking that people have to
Speaker 1: demanding that people have to hold certain beliefs and approach
Speaker 1: life and approach the world in a certain way because
Speaker 1: of skin color. That in and of itself is a
Speaker 1: racist idea and it is completely mainstream. In fact, it's
Speaker 1: doctrine for Democrats. Anybody who is black who does not
Speaker 1: accept the narrative of events from the Democrat Party about
Speaker 1: race is either betraying their own race. That's a common one.
Speaker 1: They throw slurs out there. What a horrible thing to
Speaker 1: think or say about someone that because of your skin
Speaker 1: color you have to say certain things or else. But
Speaker 1: that is the Democrat approach, as we know. And it's
Speaker 1: all about power. I mean, does anyone really think Nancy
Speaker 1: Pelosi cares a lot about minorities? What a laughable proposition, right,
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, super rich mansion living in the Bay Area.
Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi. She cares so much about the black community,
Speaker 1: she cares so much about the Latino community. And people
Speaker 1: say this stuff with a straight face. I mean, not
Speaker 1: as straight as Nancy's face a lot of botox. But
Speaker 1: you get what I'm saying. You get what I'm saying anyway.
Speaker 1: Tim Scott, here's what he says about his view of
Speaker 1: the future of this country in response to Biden's socialism
Speaker 1: extravaganza last night play ten. Our best future will not
Speaker 1: come from Washington schemes or socialist dreams. It will come
Speaker 1: from you, the American people, black, Hispanic, white, and Asian,
Speaker 1: Republican and Democrat, brave police officers, and black neighborhoods. We
Speaker 1: are not adversaries. We are family. We are all in
Speaker 1: this together, and we get to live in the greatest
Speaker 1: country on earth, the country where my grandfather, in his
Speaker 1: ninety four years, saw his family go from cotton to
Speaker 1: Congress in one lifetime. So I am more been hopeful.
Speaker 1: I am confident that our finest hour has yet to come.
Speaker 1: I know this isn't our finest hour because we've got
Speaker 1: a Biden administration that's radical, that's far left, that doesn't
Speaker 1: care about what history has shown us, what it comes
Speaker 1: to these policies, doesn't understand or could care less about
Speaker 1: economic reality and what it means to try to build
Speaker 1: the business, what it means to try to get ahead,
Speaker 1: to have hard work be rewarded by the market, instead
Speaker 1: of having the government picking winners and losers, instead of
Speaker 1: the government turning on the money gun and just spraying
Speaker 1: it all around the country to whoever they think it's
Speaker 1: fair to get it. All these intrusions, all these interdictions,
Speaker 1: if you will, into the market on behalf of favored
Speaker 1: constituencies of the Democrats, enlarging the welfare state and turning
Speaker 1: this into a mega government. That's really the plan of
Speaker 1: the Democrats. Because if the COVID situation, as shown as anything.
Speaker 1: It's the government does a great job. Sure it would
Speaker 1: be nice if all the stuff that Biden was saying
Speaker 1: is true, you know, just free stuff for everybody. I
Speaker 1: wish Santa Claus was real. Wouldn't that be great? I
Speaker 1: wish Santa Claus was real. I can't tell you that
Speaker 1: a guy in a red suit is going to come
Speaker 1: down your chimney with a whole lot of money printed
Speaker 1: by the Fed anytime soon. But I can actually get
Speaker 1: a box of incredible meat delivered right to your home.

Speaker 1: it right in your freezer. You thought out, this is

Speaker 1: dot com slash buck, m o I n k box
Speaker 1: dot com slash buck. Why did Mark Kelly mention the
Speaker 1: fact that Joe Biden didn't talk about solving the border
Speaker 1: crisis because Joe Biden is the crisis. The rude cause
Speaker 1: of the run on the border is not the Northern
Speaker 1: Triangle countries. They're no better, no worse than they were
Speaker 1: when Trump, but they're better I think because of Trump.
Speaker 1: The bottom line is Joe Biden instituted catching release. If
Speaker 1: you come to America, you get released in the country,
Speaker 1: you never show up to your court date. If you're
Speaker 1: under sixteen, you stay here. Word is out all over
Speaker 1: Central America that Joe Biden is going back to Ketchen release,
Speaker 1: and Mark Kelly knows unless you change catching release and
Speaker 1: reform asylum, it's never ending. And the reason Biden never
Speaker 1: mentioned it is because the left won't let him mention it.
Speaker 1: The root cause of immigration chaos is Joe Biden. Not
Speaker 1: much talk at all about immigration in the speech last
Speaker 1: night from Biden, which is unsurprising. I went through it
Speaker 1: and I'm I'm pretty sure and I could check. I'm
Speaker 1: pretty sure that he mentioned the border maybe one time.
Speaker 1: I mean the actual border, right, what was Oh, I'm
Speaker 1: sorry three times in one paragraph he mentioned the border, Okay,
Speaker 1: and that's it. In the whole speech, that was all
Speaker 1: and I just sort of went right past it. How
Speaker 1: does he recommend we actually secure the border? No idea.
Speaker 1: All he knows is go back to the old Obama
Speaker 1: administration talking points about how we need comprehensive, comprehensive immigration reform.
Speaker 1: That's what we're told, comprehensive immigration reform. And you say, okay,
Speaker 1: well that means amnesty, right, that means amnesty. Yes, yes,
Speaker 1: it does. That means that we're gonna find out it's
Speaker 1: gonna be such a big surprise. Pell too. Wait, wait,
Speaker 1: do you mean there's more than eleven million illegal immigrants
Speaker 1: in the country? You mean it's more like fifteen million
Speaker 1: or twenty million, will hold on, But the government said, yeah,
Speaker 1: I know, the government said for a long time that
Speaker 1: it was eleven million, that the number stays constant year
Speaker 1: in a year out. We have one hundred thousand illegals
Speaker 1: entering the country a month right now. But somehow it's
Speaker 1: been eleven million illegal immigrants in America for the last
Speaker 1: decade plus. Isn't that so strange? Doesn't that seem weird
Speaker 1: to you? Yeah, certainly seems weird to me. But what
Speaker 1: is Joe really going to say about the border? How
Speaker 1: is he really going to explain what's happening. It's the
Speaker 1: worst it's ever been, the most open it's ever been,
Speaker 1: and it's because of decisions the Biden administration made. And
Speaker 1: they know that while you know, forty percent of the
Speaker 1: electorate is just going to vote Democrat no matter what,
Speaker 1: maybe forty five percent, those last few percentage points that
Speaker 1: they need to keep them in powers we saw the
Speaker 1: last election was not it was not a large number
Speaker 1: of people that pushed Joe Biden into the w column
Speaker 1: in the grand scheme of things. I mean, yeah, they
Speaker 1: could talk about the popular vote, but if we're looking
Speaker 1: at this in terms of state by state and the
Speaker 1: electoral College, yet about one hundred thousand people vote a
Speaker 1: different way in a handful of states. Joe Biden's not president,
Speaker 1: but yet he has a mandate, a mandate to ignore
Speaker 1: the other half of the country. So much of what
Speaker 1: he's doing is exactly that. In fact, one of the
Speaker 1: areas of Tim Scott's speech that I thought was most
Speaker 1: important for everyone to hear. I mean, first off, when
Speaker 1: he says America is not a racist country. That was
Speaker 1: the powerful moment of the speech because it's true, despite
Speaker 1: what the Democrats are always saying, despite their attitudes about America,
Speaker 1: their disdain on display constantly about America, that what we've
Speaker 1: seen from the Biden administration is that they just divide
Speaker 1: and pull us apart. There's such an opportunity in the
Speaker 1: middle of a pandemic to bring people together and to
Speaker 1: really make it seem like there's at least an effort
Speaker 1: or at least some thought to bringing us into the
Speaker 1: same place, put us in the same boat. But no,
Speaker 1: that's not what happens. Tim Scott said it well, play eleven.
Speaker 1: We just heard President Biden's first addressed to Congress. Our
Speaker 1: president seems like a good man. His speech was full
Speaker 1: of good words. But President Biden promised you a specific
Speaker 1: kind of leadership. You promised to unite a nation, to
Speaker 1: lower the temperature, to govern for all Americans, no matter
Speaker 1: how we voted. This was a pitch. You just heard
Speaker 1: it again. But our nation is starving for more than
Speaker 1: empty platitudes. We need policies and progress that brings us
Speaker 1: closer together. For three months in the actions of the
Speaker 1: President and his party are pulling us further and further apart.
Speaker 1: Can there really be any doubt about that? Does anyone
Speaker 1: feel like This president is a uniter. I mean that
Speaker 1: was laughable within days of his taking off. It was
Speaker 1: laughable within minutes. What's the first thing he did sign?
Speaker 1: Incredibly divisive, hyperpartisan executive orders, all slow of them on
Speaker 1: a range of issues, including the Keystone XEL pipeline, which
Speaker 1: he hadn't even talked about. But hey, gotta throw a
Speaker 1: bone to the environmental lobby. Gotta give them their peace right.
Speaker 1: They bunch bunch of rich libs in Malibu on the
Speaker 1: Upper West Side who right checks to environmental concerns, all
Speaker 1: climb a change. Gotta give them what they want. And
Speaker 1: so he did, and so he did. What you're seeing
Speaker 1: is that we're not actually opposing Joe Biden. Joe Biden's
Speaker 1: not the problem. Joe Biden is a symptom. He's actually
Speaker 1: just a tool, want one cog in the Democrat left
Speaker 1: socialist machine. And so we have to oppose that. It's
Speaker 1: the machinery around him, the ideas they're pushing and the
Speaker 1: ways they do it. That's where our challenge really lies.
Speaker 1: Because even without Joe Biden, I could tell you this,
Speaker 1: if it were a president Kamala Harris last night, it
Speaker 1: would have sounded exactly the same. I mean, sounded maybe
Speaker 1: a little different, but it would have been the same
Speaker 1: speech pushing the same ideas. These Democrat politicians are just
Speaker 1: representative of the machinery of the left, and that's all
Speaker 1: that it takes to get what they want done. They
Speaker 1: know that they have the media and academia and the
Speaker 1: federal government bureaucracy, and Wall Street and the biggest wealthiest
Speaker 1: corporations all on their side, so it doesn't really matter.
Speaker 1: They don't need a great leader, they don't even need
Speaker 1: an effective leader. They just need someone to carry the
Speaker 1: torch for the left. And that's right now Joe Biden.
Speaker 1: I think before the next election, it will be Kamala Harris,
Speaker 1: and it will be exactly the same policies, the same ideas,
Speaker 1: the same socialism, big government, racial identity politics stuff. All
Speaker 1: of it will be the same. So we have to
Speaker 1: win this war of ideas. Because pointing out that Joe
Speaker 1: Biden is inept, people say he's senile, all this stuff,
Speaker 1: that doesn't it's not going to stop it. I don't
Speaker 1: think we should nearly enough time looking at our current
Speaker 1: spending and asking ourselves if we could could reprioritize some
Speaker 1: of the ways that we're spending taxpayer money. Let me
Speaker 1: put it in another way, mister President, no person with
Speaker 1: a even a casual relationship with the federal budget and
Speaker 1: or an iq above a root vegetable believes that every
Speaker 1: single penny being spent today in the United States government's
Speaker 1: budget is being spent efficiently. And this just goes to belief.
Speaker 1: I mean, Senator Kennedy, I understand the point he's making here.
Speaker 1: But Democrats, you have to you have to understand they
Speaker 1: believe that government spending is inherently a good thing. It's
Speaker 1: a good activity. Now there'll be sometimes they oh, they're
Speaker 1: giving money to Wall Street fatcats or something, Well, they'll
Speaker 1: complain about it, but in general, they always think there
Speaker 1: should be more spending. It's like a psychological conditions. It's
Speaker 1: never enough money that the government is deciding to spend,
Speaker 1: and it's just a question of what they can get
Speaker 1: away with politically. Before people start to say, hold on
Speaker 1: a second, that's that's sounded a little bit too much.
Speaker 1: But how could we even believe that there's a limitation
Speaker 1: on what the Democrats have in mind here when they're
Speaker 1: willing to spend six trillion dollars of money in addition
Speaker 1: to we're already seeing in the federal budget. That's what
Speaker 1: they want to do. And they can use reconciliation for
Speaker 1: changes the tax code, and they can use parliamentary maneuvers,
Speaker 1: and they'll just do whatever they can to get this
Speaker 1: stuff done. And you know the way that they'll frame
Speaker 1: it all. They'll do exactly what they did with the
Speaker 1: American Rescue package. You know, one point eight trillion dollars,
Speaker 1: five percent of it for fractual COVID stuff, and then
Speaker 1: the rest is whatever they want to spend more on.
Speaker 1: You know, it's at the point now where you have
Speaker 1: to go to the very baseline level of understanding about
Speaker 1: these things to start to force the Democrats to reckon
Speaker 1: with reality. So, for example, when we talk about the border,
Speaker 1: I'll say, okay, let's start from this proposition, because they'll say,
Speaker 1: what about the children, what about the families? What about
Speaker 1: you know, what about the dreamers? All right? Who doesn't
Speaker 1: get to stay in America? Right? That comes in illegally,
Speaker 1: who shouldn't be allowed to stay? You'll let us Democrats
Speaker 1: get very they want to change the subject or whatever,
Speaker 1: because if the answer is only violent felons, and even
Speaker 1: some Democrats I would note, don't think that that's the answer.
Speaker 1: But if the answer is only violent felons, everybody else
Speaker 1: gets to stay. That's called open borders. So who doesn't
Speaker 1: get to stay that refuses to go through the actual
Speaker 1: legal process of entry and all the rest of it.
Speaker 1: They won't answer the question because they want to have
Speaker 1: their cake. You need it too. They want to pretend
Speaker 1: that we're a society that still has immigration laws that
Speaker 1: are taken seriously. But they want the feeling of being
Speaker 1: a good guy or a good girl who wants everybody
Speaker 1: to be able to stay in America. We're a nation
Speaker 1: of immigrants. All that stuff. Same mentality is at work
Speaker 1: with the way the government under the Biden administration would
Speaker 1: spend money. They say, but what about this, more money
Speaker 1: for this, more money for that. You have to start
Speaker 1: at the proposition, Okay, how much money is too much?
Speaker 1: Is there any downside? One of the one of the
Speaker 1: ways that Democrats push all this, one of the ways
Speaker 1: they get their ideas to become popular, is with the
Speaker 1: false promise of no trade off, the false promise of
Speaker 1: no downside. You see this with so many of their
Speaker 1: policies defund the police. Oh you're being you know, you're
Speaker 1: you're helping racial healing or whatever. That's what Democrats will say. Okay,
Speaker 1: but when you defund police, there are fewer law enforcement
Speaker 1: officers able to do the job of preventing crime and
Speaker 1: punishing crime, and therefore people will more people will die,
Speaker 1: more people will be assaulted, more people will be raped.
Speaker 1: That's the downside of defunding police. But they won't ever
Speaker 1: talk about it. They only talk about the upside of
Speaker 1: feeling like we're writing historical wrongs. We're dealing with police
Speaker 1: brutality or whatever it may be. With the border, I've
Speaker 1: already said that's there's no They do not recognize a
Speaker 1: downside to illegal immigration. They don't actually see there being
Speaker 1: anything wrong with it. The only problem is they know
Speaker 1: that not enough Americans agree with them that they can
Speaker 1: be honest about that. But they don't see a downside.
Speaker 1: They will tell you that illegal immigrants don't compete with
Speaker 1: Americans for jobs, illegal immigrants don't commit commit crimes at
Speaker 1: a rate that is higher than what we want because
Speaker 1: we don't want any illegal immigrants to be in the
Speaker 1: country based on the law. Therefore, there shouldn't be any
Speaker 1: crimes committed. Because I know they can show statistics that
Speaker 1: present a relative to the general population this country, you know,
Speaker 1: lower level of crime among the illegal immigrant population. But
Speaker 1: I don't care because the numbers should be zero. It
Speaker 1: should be zero crimes committed because people shouldn't be in
Speaker 1: the country illegally in the first place. But they don't
Speaker 1: ever talk about downside. They don't ever talk about additional
Speaker 1: And one area where the statistics are very clear is
Speaker 1: that illegal immigrants have a greater likelihood and as a percentage,
Speaker 1: are much more much more likely to be dependent upon
Speaker 1: different forms of state assistance and welfare. And people who say, oh,
Speaker 1: they don't get it, but that's not true. Yeah, actually
Speaker 1: it is true. If they're in a household where there's
Speaker 1: one person, if you're an legal immigrant, you're in a a
Speaker 1: house and where one person's born in America. Now that's
Speaker 1: the tether into the United States. There are benefits that
Speaker 1: come to that household. Also, there are any number of
Speaker 1: state programs that currently take taxpayer dollars and give them.
Speaker 1: In New York, we're given fifteen grand for COVID relief
Speaker 1: to llegal immigrants. Okay, so I don't want to hear
Speaker 1: about this. Oh they don't get benefits. That's a lie.
Speaker 1: I'm bringing this up because on the spending issue too,
Speaker 1: we're now at the point where we have to have
Speaker 1: a serious conversation how much is too much? And if
Speaker 1: Democrats like Joe Biden, if this socialist Santa Clause doesn't
Speaker 1: actually have an answer to that question, then we have
Speaker 1: to stop and say, We'll hold on a minute. What
Speaker 1: is the value of our money? What is happening to
Speaker 1: our currency? You know, if I say six trillion dollars,
Speaker 1: that sounds like a lot of money, and they say
Speaker 1: it's investments. It's investments, which is that's the favorite Democrat word,
Speaker 1: that's their favorite word for We're going to take money
Speaker 1: from some people and give it to other people based
Speaker 1: on what we want to do, based on government whim.
Speaker 1: They say, we're investing in the future. Okay, if six
Speaker 1: trillion dollars is in a lot of money, why don't
Speaker 1: we just make it sixty Think about all the infrastructure
Speaker 1: we could build, Think about all the and I'll remember
Speaker 1: these folks, and I haven't forgotten. We'll be talking more
Speaker 1: about this. Trump was talking about infrastructure too, remember that
Speaker 1: first year infrastructure talking about a trillion dollar infrastructure package,
Speaker 1: Public private partnerships, that sort of thing, but didn't get
Speaker 1: it done. Democrats, unfortunately, have a more ruthless and maniacal
Speaker 1: streak when it comes to pursuing the aims of the left.
Speaker 1: I mean, they're they're just maybe I shouldn't even put
Speaker 1: it that way. Democrats actually try to get this stuff
Speaker 1: done that they say they're going to get done. Republicans
Speaker 1: get voted in promising to do certain things and then
Speaker 1: they whimp out. Democrats go for it, but why only
Speaker 1: limited to six trillion dollars? Why not go all the way?
Speaker 1: Why not make it ten trillion or fifteen trillion or whatever.
Speaker 1: Most Democrats you talked to you about this would not
Speaker 1: have a ready answer for you, because the moment they
Speaker 1: start to say, the moment they admit that there is
Speaker 1: a tradeoff that government spending crowds out private spending, lowers growth,
Speaker 1: lowers opportunity, government's inefficient. The moment that you start looking
Speaker 1: at that list of the tradeoffs, Santa Claus, all of
Speaker 1: a sudden you realize he's bringing you presence, but he
Speaker 1: bought it all with your credit card. That's the reality
Speaker 1: of what we see here. That's the reality of what's happening.
Speaker 1: It's the taxpayers credit card that Santa is using to
Speaker 1: get the bag of goodies that he's then giving out
Speaker 1: only to certain kids, not to everybody. And this is
Speaker 1: where we have a fundamental disconnect in just view of
Speaker 1: government and in the American psyche between those who think
Speaker 1: that more spending and bigger government is better and those
Speaker 1: who want the government to do less and leave us alone.
Speaker 1: I'm definitely worried about the economy, and I feel like
Speaker 1: the only way that they'll be a reckoning for this
Speaker 1: Biden administration is if we hit a major economic reckoning,
Speaker 1: if there's a real downturn that happens, But that may
Speaker 1: be a ways off. And given all the cash slashing
Speaker 1: around because of the FED, there's definitely gonna be some
Speaker 1: real upside in the market in the months ahead. You
Speaker 1: just gotta know where to be, You gotta know what
Speaker 1: stocks to be. And for all of you who are

Speaker 1: Our friend ned Ryan in the mix he is the
Speaker 1: founder of American Majority, knows the political scene backwards and forwards,
Speaker 1: and always has insights worth hearing. Ned great to have you. Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: graz be back with you, Buck, So just give me
Speaker 1: your top line. Here we have the Biden beach. If
Speaker 1: you were able to stay awake through it and stomach
Speaker 1: the whole thing, congratulations to you. What did you make
Speaker 1: of it? You know, I had a couple thoughts. Obviously,
Speaker 1: My first reaction was sitting there watching and him talking
Speaker 1: about six trillion and spending and all of these really
Speaker 1: all of these plans to re engineer America. My reaction was,
Speaker 1: you have no mandate. I mean literally, I mean one
Speaker 1: of my first initial thoughts was, Buck, this guy has
Speaker 1: no mandate. He barely won this election in a highly
Speaker 1: suspicious election, by the way, in which it really came
Speaker 1: down to forty two thousand votes between Arizona, Wisconsin, and
Speaker 1: Georgia to decide those thirty seven electoral votes. So please
Speaker 1: don't act like you have some mandate to completely wholesale
Speaker 1: re engineer America. And I thought that was the interesting
Speaker 1: thing just sitting there too. I mean, the big selling
Speaker 1: point in a lot of ways was, hey, let's have
Speaker 1: Joe Biden to moderate return to normalcy presidency. And the
Speaker 1: first hundred days has been anything but that. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's been an agenda that's so radical it's to the
Speaker 1: left of what Obama even try. So, I mean that
Speaker 1: was some of my initial reaction, just this guy's no mandate.
Speaker 1: He's pushing an agenda that's far to the left of
Speaker 1: what Obama ever tried. And oh, by the way, it's
Speaker 1: an imperial presidency. He's signed over sixty executive orders in
Speaker 1: the first hundred days. So I will say this, I've
Speaker 1: said this on TV. I've said or not ed's Joe
Speaker 1: Biden is an empty husk. He is merely a trojan
Speaker 1: horse for the advancement of a far left agenda. And
Speaker 1: whoever's really calling the shots inside the Abiden administration is
Speaker 1: taking the opportunity to try and push a far left agenda,
Speaker 1: and I hope that it fails miserably. Do you think
Speaker 1: that Obama is behind the scenes pushing on some of
Speaker 1: the on some of the bigger decisions that are coming
Speaker 1: out of the Biden oval office. I do. I mean,
Speaker 1: I think Obama and Valerie Jared, some of those players
Speaker 1: are having a undue influence over what I've called the
Speaker 1: third Obama term. No, I think there's a lot of
Speaker 1: people that are having a lot of influence, and you're
Speaker 1: dealing with a very frail week Joe Biden. So yeah, No,
Speaker 1: I do think that Obama and Valerie, Jared and others
Speaker 1: are having a serious influence on some of the far
Speaker 1: left agenda and really seeing this as an opportunity to
Speaker 1: push that. And again I'll say this, I mean, I'm
Speaker 1: fully convinced that Biden will not last a first term.
Speaker 1: And you know, then you have Kamala Harrison, and then
Speaker 1: it gets even crazier. Now we're speaking of Ned Ryan,
Speaker 1: founder of American Majority. I want to get back to
Speaker 1: that Kamla point in a second. But there's what Biden
Speaker 1: says that obviously appeals to the Democrat left wing base, right,
Speaker 1: what he talks about assault rifle bands and all these things,
Speaker 1: And I don't think that even the Democrats believe that's
Speaker 1: likely to happen. Let's say, in the next twelve months,
Speaker 1: as we get into this next midterm election cycle, what
Speaker 1: do you think they will actually be able to do
Speaker 1: of the things that Biden outlined. I think that's a
Speaker 1: really good question book, because Joe Mansion has already expressed
Speaker 1: concerned about some of this spending. And again, not the
Speaker 1: greatest place to be in when Joe Mansion is your
Speaker 1: backstop to prevent some of the madness. But he's helped
Speaker 1: firm on you know, the legislative filibus or front he's
Speaker 1: already expressed concern. And you know, I thought what I
Speaker 1: was telling last night Buck was when he had David
Speaker 1: Axelrod on CNN going after Biden on the fact that
Speaker 1: he really didn't have any He barely mentioned immigration. I
Speaker 1: think he's spent three minutes on it, had no solutions
Speaker 1: for the serious border crist or any crisis. And you
Speaker 1: had David Axelrod blowing him up then on the budget,
Speaker 1: on the spending. John Kasik on Aaron Burnett is blowing
Speaker 1: up Biden, going, in what world are we going to
Speaker 1: pay for this six trillion? It seems really nice up
Speaker 1: front free you know, pre K, free, college free, this
Speaker 1: free that at some point six trillion, and spending somebody's
Speaker 1: gonna have to pay for that. This makes no sense
Speaker 1: at all. This is this is both both those things
Speaker 1: were happening on CNN. So I think that there's real
Speaker 1: questions about a you know, are people really going are
Speaker 1: they that sold on it? And then how do you
Speaker 1: actually get it through? And a narrowly divided house and
Speaker 1: sent in in which Joe Manchin, I'm pretty sure there
Speaker 1: are going to be a couple of other Democrats going,
Speaker 1: this is insanity. I don't know how we pay for this.
Speaker 1: So it's one thing to say it in whatever that
Speaker 1: speech was last night, it's not really up stated union,
Speaker 1: but it's another thing to actually accomplishment, so I accomplish it.
Speaker 1: So I'm not fully convinced despite everything that he was
Speaker 1: talking about, how much of it will really be accomplished
Speaker 1: this year? And we all know if you don't get
Speaker 1: something through in the first year, you get into a
Speaker 1: midterm year, all these guys, the members of the House,
Speaker 1: members of the Senate start thinking about their reelect and
Speaker 1: how aggressive do I really want to get on that
Speaker 1: legislative agenda, and then have to face the voters in
Speaker 1: the fall of twenty twenty two. So I think there's
Speaker 1: strong question marked about how much of it will really
Speaker 1: be accomplished. Ned you heard him talk briefly about immigration,
Speaker 1: right that was kind of thrown in there. Really almost
Speaker 1: nothing about the border, and as I think you know,
Speaker 1: I talked to you about it. I just got back
Speaker 1: from the border from last week. It's a total mess,
Speaker 1: and it is open, and everyone who works on it
Speaker 1: says it's open. There are either a very minimal hurdles
Speaker 1: to somebody coming into the country illegally and their border
Speaker 1: patrols completely overwhelmed. Do you think that the why would
Speaker 1: Democrats return to the comprehensive immigration reform framework now that
Speaker 1: didn't work under the Obama administration? Do you think that
Speaker 1: they believe the political wins with this are now in
Speaker 1: their favor or are they just is this more talk
Speaker 1: when the real focus is just going to be on
Speaker 1: the spending of the infrastructure. Well, I think obviously there's
Speaker 1: a lot of people benefiting off this broken immigration system.
Speaker 1: I mean Democrats for political power and let's face it,
Speaker 1: Chamber of commerce type Republicans for cheap labor. No, no, no no,
Speaker 1: broken system. Really, well, a lot of people are very
Speaker 1: happy with where it's at, no matter how disastrous it is.
Speaker 1: I think the thing that struck me in regardless that
Speaker 1: right he barely deals with immigration, doesn't mention how he's
Speaker 1: going to fix the border. Crist that doesn't even really mention.
Speaker 1: It goes America is an idea. No, it's not. We
Speaker 1: are a sovereign nation. Sovereign nations have borders that are enforced,
Speaker 1: and if we do not have enforced borders, we cease
Speaker 1: to be a sovereign nation, which is kind of what
Speaker 1: the un American far left, which is taken over the
Speaker 1: Democratic Party, ultimately wants to see. Right, So it's it's
Speaker 1: all convenient for a lot of people. Some people want
Speaker 1: to see it happen. And let's face, a lot of
Speaker 1: the donor class chamber of commerce types inside the Republican Party,
Speaker 1: they're really good with where we're at right now. Right
Speaker 1: get us our cheap labor, and we're perfectly fine with
Speaker 1: the situation. All the while the American people are being
Speaker 1: abused by what's taking place and having to fund everything
Speaker 1: that's taking place. It's it's insanity, but it does tell you,
Speaker 1: I don't think I don't think we're going to see
Speaker 1: any serious immigration or border enforcement anytime soon until after
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty two elections, and even then there's a
Speaker 1: question mark until you a Republican back in the White
Speaker 1: House who actually believes that it's a crisis that needs
Speaker 1: to be dealt with. We're speaking Ned, Ryan, founder of
Speaker 1: American Majority Ned. What should the Republican counter messaging be
Speaker 1: at keep asses because it feels like, Look, Tim Scott
Speaker 1: did a nice job in the rebuttal. That's always a
Speaker 1: tough job. You know, whether you're a Democrat or Republican,
Speaker 1: it's not easy to speak in response to a president
Speaker 1: and feel like you're a little bit an overshadowed just
Speaker 1: by the size of the office and the platform. Tip
Speaker 1: Scott did a great job. I love it. He said
Speaker 1: America is not a racist country just because it's true
Speaker 1: one and two. Liberals completely lose their minds when when
Speaker 1: anybody who comes when when an African American, a prominent
Speaker 1: Republican African American like Tim Scott says that just their
Speaker 1: heads all explode. But what should the broader messaging be
Speaker 1: A responses because here my worry is that we keep
Speaker 1: saying socialism, socialism, socialism, and that doesn't seem to really
Speaker 1: resonate enough to make Democrats think twice about this stuff. No.
Speaker 1: I mean, my response in hearing a lot of this
Speaker 1: stuff is and again I hear the tired old well
Speaker 1: that's not constitutional all that's socialism. How don't we just
Speaker 1: start start talking about an agenda that and it fits
Speaker 1: the American people. The immigration system does not benefit the
Speaker 1: American people, the trade situation does not favor the American people.
Speaker 1: We are going to actually talk about americanism. I mean,
Speaker 1: this is one of the things I've been talking about
Speaker 1: for the last ten years, and Donald Trump's finally stands
Speaker 1: up and goes, I don't accept the premise of any
Speaker 1: of this. Our system in DC is so broken, a swamp,
Speaker 1: it's not serving the American people. How about Republicans go,
Speaker 1: you know what, We're not going to listen to the
Speaker 1: donor class. We're not going to listen to the corporate
Speaker 1: you know, the corporate interests. We're actually going to go
Speaker 1: out and say we actually want to see a system
Speaker 1: that benefits the American people. In a government supposedly of
Speaker 1: buying for the American people, in which the American people
Speaker 1: are an afterthought. I mean, come on, guys, this is
Speaker 1: not this is common sense. Why don't you just actually
Speaker 1: take approach in which we say everything that we're going
Speaker 1: to do is for the benefit of the American people,
Speaker 1: to actually promote their interests, get them jobs, get them
Speaker 1: good wages, get these small businesses back on track, and
Speaker 1: really half the engine of the American economy small businesses.
Speaker 1: This is not rocket science. And yet there's so much,
Speaker 1: there's so much conflicted interests inside the Republican Party. Until
Speaker 1: they get past these conflicts of not being able to
Speaker 1: deal with the corporate interests, not being able to deal
Speaker 1: decisively with big to all these things, I don't know
Speaker 1: if they're ever going to have a clear, concise message
Speaker 1: to the American people. That's the magic of Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: Screw it, this is what this is what needs to
Speaker 1: take place, this is what needs to be done. That's
Speaker 1: why the American people loved him. And you know, my
Speaker 1: hope is that he runs again in twenty twenty four.
Speaker 1: You think he's going to I mean, I know you're
Speaker 1: plugged in, you know those folks. He gave an interview
Speaker 1: recently on Fox where he said he's thinking about it. Okay,
Speaker 1: I mean, of course he's thinking about it. But where
Speaker 1: do you think the winds are blowing right now on
Speaker 1: that one. I have people inside that are swear up
Speaker 1: and down he's running again. And then I have people
Speaker 1: that have uncertaintiason say it's a fifty fifty proposition. I
Speaker 1: have to tell you I do think and I know
Speaker 1: I've told you this before. I think the twenty twenty
Speaker 1: two midterms are going to be a bell weather for him, right.
Speaker 1: I think he's probably gonna say, hey, I'm gonna do
Speaker 1: the best I can in twenty twenty two have a
Speaker 1: massive impact. If he has that massive impact, which I
Speaker 1: think he will, I think that that paves the way
Speaker 1: for him to run again in twenty twenty four. So
Speaker 1: I think there's a real part of him that wants
Speaker 1: to especially when he's seeing all this idiocy taking place.
Speaker 1: I know he did almost an hour interview this morning
Speaker 1: with Maria part Romo and just a response to Biden.
Speaker 1: I think some of this stuff is probably kind of, well,
Speaker 1: let's face it, eating at him, and at some point
Speaker 1: is going to go, screw this. I got to I
Speaker 1: can do this. I can win again. We're going to
Speaker 1: get the electoral integrity in place that we need to.
Speaker 1: I can win. I'm gonna go for it. So I'm
Speaker 1: hopeful that some of this will be a motivating factor
Speaker 1: and then a massively you know, high win percentage, huge
Speaker 1: impact on the midterms. He goes done, We're going forward.
Speaker 1: That's my hope. Ned Where do you think the economy
Speaker 1: is going to head? Because I'm hearing people who say, one,
Speaker 1: we could be heading into a difficult situation here where
Speaker 1: even with the excess spending, even with the regulation and
Speaker 1: the punishing of small business and the assisting of big business,
Speaker 1: that our corporate donors that have connections in the Biden administration,
Speaker 1: because we're going to be coming out of the pandemic,
Speaker 1: because there's so much cash on the sidelines, the FED
Speaker 1: is so permissive, there might be almost like a halo effect.
Speaker 1: There might be it'll essentially cover up for the bad
Speaker 1: ideas of Biden won't be as a parent from an
Speaker 1: economic standpoint because he has such a wind at his
Speaker 1: back because we're coming out of a pandemic and the
Speaker 1: FED is still playing ball. No. I mean I saw
Speaker 1: our mutual Freenchrist Reagan saying that the FED will never
Speaker 1: raise rates as long as Biden is in the White House. No.
Speaker 1: I think he's going to have a couple of factors
Speaker 1: that you're right, are going to mitigate the real impact
Speaker 1: on the American people. And you're right, I mean some
Speaker 1: of these dynamics, all right, I saw it was a
Speaker 1: six nine percent GDP whatever it is, like, we're going
Speaker 1: to have a really great year of GDP. That's going
Speaker 1: to mask over the fact he's going to destroy future
Speaker 1: long term economic growth with you know, his talk of
Speaker 1: raising corporate taxes. Come on, the middle class in America
Speaker 1: is not an idiot. They're looking at this, going our
Speaker 1: taxes are gonna go up if any of this actually
Speaker 1: God Forbid passes and becomes law, all of this six
Speaker 1: trillion crazy madness, we're gonna be paying for this. The
Speaker 1: middle class knows that. So I think in the short
Speaker 1: term it will gloss over. It will put up an
Speaker 1: ear of like hey, sunshine and roses. It's all good.
Speaker 1: But the long term economic impact at some point, if
Speaker 1: any of this Scott Forbid gets into law, there's gonna
Speaker 1: be a massive brutal reckoning with the American economy and
Speaker 1: the American taxpayer in which they go, oh my gosh,
Speaker 1: this is awful. So yeah, I'm afraid the short term
Speaker 1: is not going to be nearly as apparent to the
Speaker 1: American people. But you know, we'll see what happens. Yeah,
Speaker 1: before we let you go the fight against big tech,
Speaker 1: do we have any any movement to speak of on
Speaker 1: that and anything. You know, I keep getting I keep
Speaker 1: getting dinged and throttled, and you know, it's a constant
Speaker 1: war just to speak the truth out there. Big Tech
Speaker 1: is clearly a Democrat province, and they're enforcing their will
Speaker 1: on Biden's behalf at every opportunity. Or are we making
Speaker 1: any headway again? Round the scientists making headway? But I
Speaker 1: said this on Tucker or not last week, but the
Speaker 1: week before. The only way that we're going to see
Speaker 1: real movement against big tech is when Republicans and conservatives
Speaker 1: quite frankly, get righteous on the issue and realize, hey,
Speaker 1: we are dealing with monopolies. It's a Republican tradition to
Speaker 1: break up monopolies. These guys are censoring free speech, they're
Speaker 1: censoring the free flow of information. And I told Tucker,
Speaker 1: and I'll say it again, it's become a litmus test
Speaker 1: for me if you do not look at Big Tech
Speaker 1: as you know, do you reject Satan and all of
Speaker 1: his evil works? And I mean this like, do you
Speaker 1: reject the censorship of speech, the censorship of the flow
Speaker 1: of information. You're meddling with elections? Suckerberg Center for Tech
Speaker 1: and Civic Life and everything that he did in the
Speaker 1: twenty twenty elections. If you don't do that, then I
Speaker 1: have real questions as to whether I want to support you.
Speaker 1: It is an absolute for me. And so you're seeing
Speaker 1: the scientists, you're seeing some of these governors. But I
Speaker 1: will say this, Buck, I don't think you're going to
Speaker 1: see any movement in DC in the next few years.
Speaker 1: I think any real reform on the tech is going
Speaker 1: to take place at the state level, with Rhonda Santis
Speaker 1: and hopefully the twenty six other Republican governor's following suit.
Speaker 1: So fingers crossed will see what happens, but real reform
Speaker 1: on tech is going to take place at the state
Speaker 1: level on the short term. Ned Ryan the Man himself,
Speaker 1: founder of American Majority Ned my Man, good to have you.
Speaker 1: We'll talk to you soon. Thanks. Buck,
