Some fiery testimony from 2 00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,440 Speaker 1: Democrats on Capitol Hill about the crisis at the border, 3 00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 1: which they're saying is our fault. Of course. Also the 4 00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:24,760 Speaker 1: Secretary of Labor Alex Acosta, has stepped down. We'll talk 5 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:28,080 Speaker 1: about why and whether this was the right move. We've 6 00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 1: got that and much more coming up on this freest 7 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:33,839 Speaker 1: off Friday of the buck Sexton Show.

Try doing that sometime. 12 00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 1: It is buck Sexton. No, this is a manufactured crisis 13 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 1: because cruelty, because the cruelty is manufactured. This is a 14 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:07,680 Speaker 1: manufactured crisis because there is no need for us to 15 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:11,319 Speaker 1: do this. There's no need for us to overcrowd and 16 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 1: to detain and under resource. There is no need for 17 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:18,480 Speaker 1: us to arrest innocent people and treat them no differently 18 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,600 Speaker 1: than criminals when they are pursuing their basic human rights. 19 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 1: Welcome to the buck Sexton Show. The efforts of the 20 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: Democrats to make the crisis at the southern border that 21 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 1: they denied until what feels like about five minutes ago, 22 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 1: that they lied about for months and months. There's no crisis, 23 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 1: no problem. Oh, it's just the asylum process plying out, 24 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:47,039 Speaker 1: why are you so mean, Republicans. That's been the storyline. 25 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 1: Now they can't ignore the numbers. Now, the facilities are overwhelmed, overflowing. 26 00:01:53,400 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 1: Now it is clear that the systematic violation of our 27 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 1: immigration laws is underway, and that Democrats have no interest 28 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 1: in enforcement at any stage of this process anymore. They 29 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 1: want to make it not a crime to cross illegal illegally. 30 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: They want to make it not a crime to lie 31 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 1: in order to gain the asylum system. They want to 32 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: make it not a crime to stay even if you 33 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 1: don't get asylum. After you're hearing, at no point, at 34 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 1: no point in this process, do they give us anything 35 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: that indicates they really want to do what they have 36 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 1: been saying for years they want to do, which is 37 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 1: a secure the border. Okazio Cortez has become the spokesperson 38 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,240 Speaker 1: for this narrative on the left. She's become the most 39 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:46,799 Speaker 1: prominent of the Democrats to stand to stand in front 40 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 1: of us and browbeat us. The American people, because we're 41 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,679 Speaker 1: not doing enough for the people that have heard. Hey, 42 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,359 Speaker 1: here's the deal. Pay a trafficker to take you to 43 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 1: the border with a kid, say you're fleeing violence even 44 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 1: though you're not, and you'll be led into the United States, 45 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 1: and then just don't show up for your hearing because 46 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:11,359 Speaker 1: they won't. And you're in America. You're home free, you're 47 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: good to go. And we're not doing enough for those people, 48 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 1: you see. That's what that's what a Kasia Cortez is saying. 49 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 1: And it's our fault. We didn't ask these people to 50 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,679 Speaker 1: show up. We didn't we didn't put out some call 51 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 1: to hey, if you're from Central America, please flood the 52 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 1: US Mexico border at various sectors. No, they're choosing to 53 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: do this. They're choosing to exploit loopholes in our system. 54 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: And we're the bad people. We're the bad guys. She 55 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: also said that there's nothing criminal what they've done. That's 56 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 1: that's not true. Stepping onto US soil across the border, 57 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: not at a point of entry, is a violation of 58 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 1: criminal law. It's a crime because it is a serious 59 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: enough offense against the Ed States government and its sovereignty 60 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 1: that it has to be more than just a parking ticket. 61 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: They are breaking the law when they do that. And 62 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 1: you could say, oh, but that seems so harsh. All right, Well, 63 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 1: if someone wants to go and just walk through your 64 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,279 Speaker 1: front law and every day that they're not hurting you, right, 65 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: they're not. They're not doing anything bad to you. They're 66 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: just gonna walk across your lawn every morning. Why is 67 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 1: that a problem. It's just a foot on grass, right, 68 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 1: It's just a foot foot foot grass walking past you. 69 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: They want to do it every day. That's not trespassing, 70 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 1: that's just taking a shortcut. Oh you mean that. If 71 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: we're going to live in a society with rules and laws, 72 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: we have to enforce those laws. We can't just have 73 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 1: them and say, well, we're not going to take any 74 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 1: of that. Seriously, why is it just why is it 75 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,719 Speaker 1: just the case that immigration law gets pushed to the side. 76 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 1: Why do we not enforce laws about lying because we 77 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 1: know that people come to the border and they say 78 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,480 Speaker 1: that they're fleeing gang violence, and then when they get 79 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 1: into further detail, turns out that no, they're not fleeing 80 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: gang violence. They're actually economic migrants. They just forgot to 81 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 1: stay on message. If you lie to a federal law 82 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 1: enforcement officer, you're gonna go to prison. If you're an 83 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 1: illegal alien, you lie, You're just a person fleeing a 84 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:23,599 Speaker 1: desperate circumstance. I mean, Central America is not in the 85 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: midst of a massive famine or an ethnic cleansing or 86 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 1: repressive political violence that's killing thousands and thousands of people. 87 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:37,359 Speaker 1: That that's not happening right now. So what is the 88 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:41,479 Speaker 1: asylum claim really all about. They're getting ahead of people, 89 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 1: by the way, who are claiming from other countries refugee 90 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 1: status and have to go through a process in this 91 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: country who are trying to who are fleeing persecution and violence. 92 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:51,840 Speaker 1: So they're skipping them in the line. And they're skipping 93 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 1: millions of people that have been waiting for years and 94 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 1: paid thousands, perhaps tens of thousands of dollars to come 95 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 1: to the country illegally. They're all violating this process. Democrats 96 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 1: have no problem with this whatsoever. They see, They see 97 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,039 Speaker 1: no downside about this. They are now the pro illegal 98 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 1: immigration party, as they say pro undocumented. They won't even 99 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 1: say legal immigrant. It's too offensive, you see, to refer 100 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:18,839 Speaker 1: to these individuals by the legal designation of their conduct 101 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: is somehow morally offensive to Democrats. You know, you're not 102 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: You're not a tax cheat. You're just a delayed government funder. 103 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:31,840 Speaker 1: We'll get the money from you at some point, but 104 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 1: we just can't call you a tax cheat if you 105 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:38,159 Speaker 1: just refuse to ever pay your taxes. Right, delayed government funder. 106 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:42,359 Speaker 1: That sounds like fun to me. AOC, though, saw this 107 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 1: as an opportunity to grandstand her favorite thing, get attention 108 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 1: for herself. I mean, she does strike me as quite 109 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:51,280 Speaker 1: quite self obsessed and braddy, and I'm not the only one. 110 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 1: I think Nancy Pelosi would probably agree with me these days. 111 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 1: She said, it's a manufactured crisis, not manufactured by us. 112 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 1: What does she want poor to patrol to do. We 113 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: didn't know that a million people over the course of 114 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,039 Speaker 1: this year we're going to show up and say that 115 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 1: they have to claim asylum when they don't need asylum 116 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 1: and they don't meet this asylum requirements. We did not 117 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 1: know that. So it's our fault that we don't have 118 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: the facilities in place. I mean, if ten people show 119 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: up at your house for dinner and you weren't expecting them, 120 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 1: and you don't have enough food, to make them all 121 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: feel like they were really getting a great meal. Is 122 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 1: that your fault, because that's what this whole asylum process, folks, 123 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 1: is based on the goodheartedness of the American people. This 124 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 1: is us as a political community saying, you know what, 125 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 1: we are going to take in some people that you know, 126 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 1: we need to be a beacon of light to the world, 127 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 1: and we need to be a refuge for people that 128 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 1: are fleeing oppression. Put in limited numbers, and people have 129 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 1: to do it legally. But because of that, because the 130 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: charity of the American people, because that's what this is, 131 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 1: the charity is not indulgent enough for the likes of AOC. 132 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: We're bad people. Now, It's our fault. It's always our fault. 133 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 1: People send their children to through coyotes, trafficking. God knows 134 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: what's happening to these kids in the way they show 135 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 1: up on a company, they show up alone to the board. 136 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 1: It's our fault. It's all our fault. What about the 137 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 1: Honduran government, About the government of El Salvador, What about 138 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: the Mexican government? Does does does anyone else ever get to say, 139 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 1: you know, maybe we could get things together a little 140 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,719 Speaker 1: bit more here and be a little less dysfunctional as 141 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: a country. I don't know's you can't say that it's 142 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: always America's fault. I mean, AOC here doesn't mind at 143 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: all demonizing border patrol, which is what she's doing, reminds 144 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 1: me of what happened when it was convenient, when it 145 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: was politically convenient. Under the Obama administration, there were plenty 146 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 1: of Democrats and public officials who would go forward and 147 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 1: throw our cops, local law enforcement under the bus. Their racists, 148 00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: their systemic racism. Young black men need to be afraid 149 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 1: of cops. These are all things that were being said. 150 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 1: I was at the rallies covering them. I saw what 151 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 1: I heard myself. What was being said. Pigs in a blanket, 152 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,959 Speaker 1: fry him like bacon. Those were chants at rallies. Right 153 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,679 Speaker 1: when the left decides that it's good to rabble rows 154 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 1: and mobilize for the cause, they'll say horrible things about cops, 155 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 1: terrible things about law enforcement. Now I'm saying that about 156 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 1: those who are involved in law enforcement at our border, 157 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:40,200 Speaker 1: namely customs and border patrol, immigrations and customs enforcement. AOC 158 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 1: just slandering them, slandering them left and right. But does 159 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 1: it while cloaking herself in the in the trappings of 160 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: the ultimate humanitarian, the only one who cares. Yes, she's 161 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 1: the only one who carries about children. The border patrol 162 00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,080 Speaker 1: members who were changing the diapers and feeding them and 163 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: bringing them bottles and taking them to their doctor's appointments 164 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 1: that are paid for by the taxpayer. By the way, 165 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 1: the border patrol people doing all that, they're they're the 166 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: bad people. AOC who stands for these kids in her 167 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 1: super emotional moment, that she's the real hero, not the 168 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 1: people that are on the front lines taking care of them, 169 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 1: making sure that they aren't in jeopardy, make sure they 170 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 1: aren't sick, making sure they aren't being human traffic. They're 171 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:27,559 Speaker 1: not the people that we should be thankful. We should 172 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 1: be thankful to AOC because you know she tweets about 173 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:35,600 Speaker 1: it and she voted against funding for them. Can we 174 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,960 Speaker 1: just throw that in the mix for a second. The 175 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 1: biggest problem they have is they don't have money for 176 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,839 Speaker 1: all the baby formula and the diapers and the food 177 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 1: and the clothing and the soccer balls and the TVs 178 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: and the other stuff that they need at these facilities. 179 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 1: And there's an opportunity to get the money, and AOC 180 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 1: goes no. She wants to make a point. She doesn't 181 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 1: vote for it. As a member of Congress. The one thing, 182 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,959 Speaker 1: the power of the purse, what Congress has she votes 183 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:04,679 Speaker 1: against giving them the money. And then we all realized 184 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:06,559 Speaker 1: what this is. It's all about her, It's all about grandstanding. 185 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 1: But here you can hear the kind of stuff that 186 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 1: she had to say today. When these women tell me 187 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 1: that they were put into a cell and that their 188 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 1: sink was not working, and we tested the sink ourselves 189 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 1: and the sink was not working, and they were told 190 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,120 Speaker 1: to drink out of a toilet bowl, I believed them. 191 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 1: I believe these women, don't I believe the canker sores 192 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 1: that I saw in their mouths because they were only 193 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 1: allowed to be fed unnutritious food. I believed them. When 194 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,320 Speaker 1: they said they were sleeping on concrete floors for two months, 195 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: I believed them. And what was worse about this, mister Chairman, 196 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: was the fact that there were American flags hanging all 197 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:49,840 Speaker 1: over these facilities, That children being separated from their parents 198 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 1: in front of an American flag, that women were being 199 00:11:55,760 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 1: called these names under an American flag. I'm not allowed 200 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: for this I don't believe it border Patrol told women 201 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 1: to drink out of toilet. I think that there's there 202 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 1: are two options here. She as an AOC is lying 203 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:13,680 Speaker 1: or there might have been a miscommunication ooks. I've talked 204 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 1: to Border Patrol about this. Even if you're a fluent 205 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 1: Spanish speaker, particularly in Honduras, the dialect can be so 206 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:22,440 Speaker 1: different that it's very hard for fluent Spanish speakers to 207 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,320 Speaker 1: be able to communicate with some of the people from 208 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 1: the outlying villages of Honduras. So when you have a 209 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 1: contraption that is both a toilet and the bottom and 210 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 1: then at the top is water, does anyone think that 211 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 1: it might have been possible that the women from Honduras 212 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 1: that have showed up here may have misunderstood what Border 213 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 1: Patrol told them instead of telling them to drink from 214 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 1: a toilet, does anyone really think that they were told 215 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:46,679 Speaker 1: to drink from that A member of Border patrols, yeah, 216 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 1: drink from a toilet. They wouldn't say that. People that 217 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:54,319 Speaker 1: work in the worst prisons wouldn't say that the prison inmates. 218 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 1: You're gonna tell me that, you think Border Patrol would 219 00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 1: just say that the women that are there with kids 220 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,319 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I just it's not I can't tell. Oh, yeah, 221 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 1: I wasn't there. It doesn't sound impossible, but doesn't doesn't 222 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 1: wash for me at all. I don't buy it. And 223 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 1: the whole thing about the canker stores and unnutritious food. 224 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 1: No one even knows what causes canker sores. Not to 225 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: get into you Buck's Murk Manual of Health here, but 226 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 1: canker stores, there's a whole there's like a hundred different 227 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 1: theories for what they are, and they go away after 228 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,199 Speaker 1: a few days. So I don't know where she came 229 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 1: up with that, but to me, that's just indicative of 230 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 1: the fact that she's stretching to find. Oh look at 231 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 1: the horrible conduct. Are they sleeping directly on concrete for 232 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 1: two months? Are they sleeping on a mattress on concrete 233 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 1: if it's a mattress on concrete, Yeah, that's what a 234 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:35,320 Speaker 1: attention facility is going to be like. Is it supposed 235 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 1: to be a hotel? What is the acceptable standard? I 236 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,960 Speaker 1: would like to ask the Democrats this too, based on 237 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:42,960 Speaker 1: everything we've seen. For members of Congress who have been 238 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 1: down there, who are not pushing a political agenda, there 239 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 1: is fresh water provided, food provided. I've seen the medical facilities. 240 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,719 Speaker 1: We have DoD setting up medical facilities now at the 241 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:59,680 Speaker 1: border to help out with this what exactly you know? 242 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 1: And it's so horrifying. You should see the people that 243 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 1: show up. They know the whole scam. They show up. 244 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 1: I've seen them do this. You know, Hey, I mean 245 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 1: they're saying it in Spanish, but hey, I'm here, I 246 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 1: want to I want to claim my asylum now. And 247 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:13,680 Speaker 1: then they basically order around border patrol like all right, 248 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: let's you know, I'm hungry, get me a sandwich. This happens. 249 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 1: I'm not imagining this. I've been there. They've because they've 250 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 1: all been told the routine by the Coyotes. They know 251 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 1: what this is. And yeah, though they're making this trade off, 252 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 1: you know why. Okay, maybe it's you know, it's not 253 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 1: great to be in a detention facility for and two 254 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 1: months is very rare these days. Usually it's a few 255 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 1: days if you have if you have a kid with you, 256 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 1: they're just processing you through. But that's really fast compared 257 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 1: to the people that have waited years and years and 258 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 1: years in order to come to America. I legally, how 259 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: many people would would take that trade off a few 260 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 1: days of sleeping on a mattress on the floor and 261 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 1: having unnutritious food, but medical care and you know, US 262 00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 1: government responsible for your upkeep in order to get into 263 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 1: the United States forever and never have to go through 264 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 1: the legal immigration process. I think a lot of people, 265 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 1: I know a lot of people make that trade off 266 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 1: because they are making that trade off. So if it 267 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 1: were concentration camps, as Occasio Cortez says, and yeah, I mean, 268 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 1: does Border Patrol like her? I'm sure they don't because 269 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 1: Border Patrol has basically been accused of being SS guards 270 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 1: by her, and she's a disgrace and an idiot. But 271 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 1: the left loves it. I think this is fantastic. There's 272 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 1: a political cause here. It doesn't matter what the men 273 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 1: and women of law enforcement have to go through as 274 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 1: a result of It doesn't matter if their reputations are ruined. 275 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 1: If you have people writing about how they should be 276 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 1: dosed in major newspapers, they should be docs, they should 277 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 1: be shamed for doing their jobs. Well, I'm here to 278 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 1: make sure that we know that if anyone's going to 279 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 1: be shamed, it's the Democrats, it's the left, it's the 280 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 1: open borders, zealous who don't care about the rule of law, 281 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 1: and they will lie about the men and women who 282 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 1: are doing a very tough job on our border right 283 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 1: now because of people who are making a choice and 284 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 1: active affirmative choice to violate our laws and to eradicate 285 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 1: our sovereignty. I've got a lot more. I'll be right back. 286 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:18,160 Speaker 1: I think Portes is being very disrespectful to somebody that's 287 00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 1: been there a long time. A group of people is 288 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 1: being very disrespectful to her. And you know what, I 289 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 1: don't think that Nancy can let that go on. I'm 290 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 1: looking at this omar from Minnesota, and if one half 291 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 1: of the things they're saying about her are true, she 292 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 1: shouldn't even be an offense. But Cortez should treat Nancy 293 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 1: Pelosi with respect. She should not be doing what she's doing. 294 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 1: And I'll tell you something about Nancy Pelosi that you 295 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 1: know better than I do. She is not a racist. Okay, 296 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: she is not a racist. For them to call her 297 00:16:56,280 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 1: a racist is a disgrace. Trump standing up for Pelosi's 298 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 1: is that's does he standing for her? There? As well? 299 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:07,680 Speaker 1: Is that to stand for someone who's done the internet? 300 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 1: When you stand up for them. I don't know if 301 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:12,639 Speaker 1: you're like her, if you're really defending them standing up 302 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 1: for Pelosi deciding that AOC is out of line, which 303 00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 1: she clearly is. But I think it is important that 304 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:22,880 Speaker 1: Democrats once in a while, I get a little taste 305 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 1: of their own medicine too. If anyone can be called 306 00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 1: a racist without any provocation or cause, then guess what 307 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,600 Speaker 1: anybody can be called a racist? Maybe we want to 308 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:33,880 Speaker 1: rain that in a little bit as a society. Maybe 309 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 1: we don't want people just taking upon themselves to slander reputations, 310 00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 1: to ruin people publicly because they can't beat them in 311 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,560 Speaker 1: a real argument. So they say, well, it's because racist 312 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 1: Pelosi will be fine everyone, because, as we know, Democrats, 313 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 1: even if they are being racist, which I don't think 314 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 1: Pelosi is, they are judged by a very different set 315 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 1: of standards, and they will always be allowed to come 316 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 1: back into the community of the of the acceptable, of 317 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 1: the fancy, of the elites. But Trumps standing up for 318 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:09,680 Speaker 1: Pelosi is it is something you wouldn't have expected this week, 319 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 1: But sure enough, here we are. He understands that if 320 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,159 Speaker 1: there's one thing that Democrats, well, there's a lot of 321 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 1: things about Trump that drives them completely insane. But when 322 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 1: he's just being rational and he's right, and they're acting 323 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 1: like a bunch of total lunatics, and that's what that 324 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:30,120 Speaker 1: just aggravates them even more. They get even Crazier's when 325 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,639 Speaker 1: that's the case. Got more on the border and also 326 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:34,919 Speaker 1: on the census question. Why is it they're fighting the 327 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:37,919 Speaker 1: senses so hard. We'll get into that later on. We'll 328 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:40,439 Speaker 1: talk about single payer, why it's a bad idea. SHO 329 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 1: always stacked my friends. Stick with me. You're fur decriminalizing 330 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 1: border crossings or one of the people are working hands 331 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:48,960 Speaker 1: at the debate. Do you agree with AOC that we 332 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 1: should get rid of DHS altogether. That is not correct. 333 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:57,360 Speaker 1: I'm not in favor of decriminalizing or not having consequence 334 00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:58,919 Speaker 1: for it. We have to keep let me just be 335 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:01,639 Speaker 1: very clear. We have to have a secure border. But 336 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:03,639 Speaker 1: I am in favor of saying that we're not going 337 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 1: to treat people who are undocumented across the border as criminals. 338 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:11,200 Speaker 1: That's correct, That is correct. Um. So, she was really 339 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:14,480 Speaker 1: clear in that she seemed like she was figuring out 340 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 1: her position in real time on air. There Producer Mike 341 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 1: I wasn't she was she was sure about how unsure 342 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,920 Speaker 1: she was. Yeah, that's for sure. That was That was 343 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:26,639 Speaker 1: a pretty amazing moment because she knows here's here's what 344 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 1: that really was. Democrats are so set on the talking 345 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,880 Speaker 1: points they can't discuss what this issue really means because 346 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 1: if people found out what the Democrats were for, there 347 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 1: would be a political revolt against them. So they have 348 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,439 Speaker 1: to just stick with things like, we believe in a 349 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 1: secure border. Okay, well, what what are you willing to 350 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,119 Speaker 1: do to secure the border? They got nothing on that. 351 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,440 Speaker 1: We believe in a secure border, but we don't want 352 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:56,359 Speaker 1: to separate families. We don't believe families should be separated. Okay, 353 00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 1: well then does that mean? What does that mean that 354 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 1: everybody who could brought into these facilities has to be 355 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 1: released right away because they can't process them fast enough. 356 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 1: The system is overwhelmed. So that just means that they're 357 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:07,879 Speaker 1: being led into the country. If you show up with 358 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:09,119 Speaker 1: a kid, you get let it. Oh no, no no, we 359 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 1: believe in not separating families. There has to be more 360 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 1: than that. That's not a substantial enough explanation of what 361 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:22,200 Speaker 1: they want. It's not even close to being substantial enough. 362 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 1: But unfortunately, that's that's really the point, it's that they 363 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 1: don't want it to be clear what they are pushing for. 364 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 1: They don't want it to be understood what they have 365 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 1: in mind. They wanted to be about the talking points. 366 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 1: They wanted to be vague. And that's why Kamala Harris 367 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 1: here saying, well, you know, no, that's not correct. I'm 368 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 1: actually for, but I'm kind of not for, but maybe 369 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 1: i'm a little bit for. They want to decriminalize border crossings, 370 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:53,359 Speaker 1: why wouldn't someone come here. They want to decriminalize border crossings. 371 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 1: They don't want anyone to be to be deported. So 372 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 1: everybody knows that means right, It means that this problem 373 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 1: is only going to get worse. It's only gonna get worse, 374 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 1: more people coming from all over the world. This is 375 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,440 Speaker 1: not They also, you know AOC today and her testimony 376 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 1: as I was watching it, said that it's it's horrible 377 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 1: that these people get kept in Mexico. I'm sorry, is 378 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:20,959 Speaker 1: Mexico some kind of a you know, mad Max hellscape? 379 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 1: People people from Honduras can't hang out in Mexico for 380 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 1: a few months waiting for their their court date. I mean, 381 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:31,359 Speaker 1: they speak the same language. It's why is it so terrible. 382 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 1: There are a lot of people, I think one hundred 383 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:37,199 Speaker 1: and thirty million live in Mexico. They're not all claiming 384 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 1: refugee status. That seems to me to be just a 385 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:44,880 Speaker 1: bizarre thing to say, is that it's some it's a 386 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 1: terrible punishment. You see, according to the Democrats, if you're 387 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,639 Speaker 1: from Central America and you come to the US Mexico 388 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: border and you have to stay in Mexico for a while, well, 389 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,639 Speaker 1: if you're if you're a true asylum seeker, you should 390 00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:59,879 Speaker 1: just be happy that you're safe from the make believe 391 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 1: threat of violence that they're all claiming to have from 392 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:06,919 Speaker 1: Honduras or Al Salvador. They're scamming folks, they're scamming the system, 393 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,399 Speaker 1: and I understand there's huge incentive for them to do it. 394 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:14,360 Speaker 1: But they're lying. They're not fleeing violence. Unless we want 395 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,239 Speaker 1: to claim that all of Honduras and all of Al 396 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:21,879 Speaker 1: Salvador qualifies for asylum, in which case, welcome to the 397 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:26,680 Speaker 1: fifty first and fifty second state and throw Guatemalan they're 398 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:29,359 Speaker 1: two fifty third, because that means the whole country gets 399 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:31,760 Speaker 1: to be a part of America. Then that means there's 400 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 1: absolutely nothing nothing that we can do to stop this. 401 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 1: So which is it? Do you qualify for salami from Mexico? 402 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 1: But that's why if you're from a Central America rather, 403 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:50,160 Speaker 1: this is why the raids that are planned are so very, 404 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: very contentious. This is why the raids that are planned 405 00:22:55,840 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 1: or I'm concerned going to be a band ended. Once again, 406 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:07,640 Speaker 1: I'm not sure the president is really willing to really 407 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:09,679 Speaker 1: willing to follow through on this one. There'll just be 408 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 1: so many people of the folks, there are Republicans. There 409 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:16,640 Speaker 1: are Republicans. You can't trust on this stuff. They've they 410 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:18,480 Speaker 1: just they want to be the nice guy. It's so 411 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,160 Speaker 1: much easier to say, just let everyone come, just let 412 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:23,439 Speaker 1: everyone be in the country. Come on, we got a 413 00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 1: lot of space. You've ever been you've ever been driving 414 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 1: around Wyoming, There's space everywhere, right, That's what they'll say. 415 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:34,640 Speaker 1: What we'll be told, go go driver on Arizona. There's 416 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:38,080 Speaker 1: a lot of open territory. Yeah, it's open territory. But 417 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:43,240 Speaker 1: guess what migrants. Migrants aren't aren't they're not pioneers in 418 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:45,200 Speaker 1: the nineteenth century. They're not showing up in the woods 419 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 1: and hacking a house out of you know, clearing brush 420 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 1: they're gonna show up and say, where's my where's my Obamacare? 421 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: Where are my food stamps? Where's my Section eight housing? 422 00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,160 Speaker 1: And the Democrats are gonna say, you're right, we owe 423 00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 1: that all to you, taxpayer. Pay more. These people need 424 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 1: more stuff. You owe it to them because your foreign 425 00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 1: policy ruined their countries. This is this is the narrative. 426 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,360 Speaker 1: This is what is happening right now. Well, I don't 427 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 1: know Trump. Trump says that they're going to go through 428 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 1: with these ICE rates. He says it's going to happen. 429 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:20,160 Speaker 1: There's nothing to be secret about ICE's law enforcements. They're 430 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: great patriots. They have a tough job. Nothing to be 431 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,160 Speaker 1: secret about. If the word gets out, it gets out. 432 00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 1: It starts on Sunday, and they're gonna take people out 433 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:31,880 Speaker 1: and they're gonna bring them back to their countries. When 434 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 1: people come into our country, we take those people out 435 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:37,960 Speaker 1: and we take them out very legally. They all have 436 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 1: papers and it's a process, and I have an obligation 437 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 1: to do it. They came in illegally, they go out legally. 438 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:48,399 Speaker 1: What the Democrats should be doing now is they should 439 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:53,880 Speaker 1: be changing the loopholes. They should be changing asylum that's 440 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 1: if they were serious about fixing the situation. I do 441 00:24:56,920 --> 00:25:00,400 Speaker 1: not believe. I do not believe they are serious about 442 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:05,679 Speaker 1: fixing it. I think that they very much want this 443 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:11,400 Speaker 1: to continue. But the approach of the Trump administration of 444 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:17,360 Speaker 1: upping the deportations and having a more aggressive approach going forward, 445 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,920 Speaker 1: that's what has to be done here. Because what you're 446 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:23,399 Speaker 1: gonna do. And one of the great things about Trump 447 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:25,879 Speaker 1: is that he forces the other side to make errors. 448 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,639 Speaker 1: He forces them out of their their comfortable, little little 449 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:31,720 Speaker 1: little hole, and all of a sudden, you can see 450 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,720 Speaker 1: them for what they are. And that's what he does 451 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:36,440 Speaker 1: to the left day in and day out. Right. They 452 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:38,439 Speaker 1: freak out at everything he says. He's wait a second, 453 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 1: what he said wasn't even not only was it not crazy? 454 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,200 Speaker 1: That's what I think the left now is going to 455 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 1: tell him that he's that he's hitler. Because of this, 456 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,440 Speaker 1: he forces them to show us. He forces the left 457 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 1: to show us who they really are. And when he 458 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:58,840 Speaker 1: starts deporting, when the administration is going specifically after individuals 459 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 1: who have been adjudicated, been through their process, had it 460 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:05,399 Speaker 1: all done, when he goes through all of them, and 461 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 1: the Democrats still claim that that is, you know, they 462 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:16,880 Speaker 1: can't be deported. That's not right. The Democrats still are 463 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:21,880 Speaker 1: opposing deportation. How can anyone be watching that? How can 464 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 1: anyone pay attention to it and not think, Oh, the 465 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:29,400 Speaker 1: Democrats are for open borders. They do not believe what 466 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 1: they say with the talking points about secure border. They 467 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:34,160 Speaker 1: don't believe in the rule of law. When it comes 468 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:37,440 Speaker 1: to immigration. They are kicking the doors open. They want 469 00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,399 Speaker 1: the country flooded with migrants from the Third World because 470 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:43,920 Speaker 1: they want people to be Democrat voters. That's what this 471 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:47,880 Speaker 1: is all about. I think he was a great labor secretary, 472 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 1: not a good laborage secretary. He's done a fantastic job. 473 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 1: He's a friend of everybody in the administration. And I 474 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 1: got a call this morning early from Alex and I 475 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,359 Speaker 1: think he did a very good job yesterday under a 476 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 1: lot of pressure. He did a fantastic job, and he 477 00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:07,720 Speaker 1: explained it, and he made a deal that people were 478 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:10,200 Speaker 1: happy with him. Then twelve years later than I'm happy 479 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 1: with it. You'll have to figure all of that out, 480 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 1: but the fact is he has been a fantastic secretary 481 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 1: of Labor. And Alex called me this morning and he 482 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 1: wanted to see me, and I actually said, well, we 483 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 1: have to press right out here, so perhaps you just 484 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,479 Speaker 1: want to say it to the press, but I just 485 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 1: want to let you know this was him, not me, 486 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:35,119 Speaker 1: because I'm with him. He was a he's a tremendous talent, 487 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:40,240 Speaker 1: he's a Hispanic man, he went to Harvard, a great student, 488 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:44,160 Speaker 1: and in so many ways I just hate what he's 489 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 1: saying now because we're gonna miss him. There you have 490 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 1: the announcement of the well from Trump of the resignation 491 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:57,399 Speaker 1: of Acosto. I think i'd said earlier with hh's he 492 00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:02,040 Speaker 1: was the labor Secretary. I might have said that wrong 493 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:03,919 Speaker 1: in the radio before, so sorry if I got that 494 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 1: one messed up. Order on the week. Always like to 495 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 1: be be factual here on the show, accurate here on 496 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:12,880 Speaker 1: the show, zero pinocchios on the Bucks Act and show. 497 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,639 Speaker 1: That is what we strive for. But I gotta I've 498 00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:17,440 Speaker 1: got a little bit of mixed emotions about this one. 499 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:19,879 Speaker 1: I know it's radio, so I'm supposed to say I 500 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 1: have the answer, and I have the perfect answer, and 501 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 1: I'm better than all the other radio hosts. Whatever are 502 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:25,680 Speaker 1: there are other people who do that. I just prefer 503 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 1: to talk to you like like friends and equals, because 504 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 1: that's what you are. But you know, this is what happened. 505 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 1: You gotta the Democrats and the media, I know, I 506 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 1: repeat myself there. They see this as an opportunity to 507 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 1: take down a member of the administration's cabinet. Right. They 508 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:49,240 Speaker 1: see this as Okay, no one really cares who the 509 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 1: Labor secretary is. But this Epstein story because the Miami 510 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 1: Herald Investigative reporting on it, they couldn't suppress it anymore. 511 00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 1: So how can they get the most narrow narrative mileage 512 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 1: out of it? And the way they the way they 513 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 1: came up with or the answer to that question for 514 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:11,360 Speaker 1: them was that they would Oh my gosh, I'm seeing 515 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 1: this now. By the way, the hidden workforce undocumented in America, CNN. 516 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,600 Speaker 1: This is just propaganda, folks, This is this is a 517 00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 1: CNN's running ads for this now. Undocumented is a made up, 518 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:25,880 Speaker 1: nonsense term. There is a proper term for people who 519 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:27,200 Speaker 1: are in the country illegally, and it is either a 520 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 1: legal alien or legal immigrant. They're in violation of a 521 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 1: law is not called undocumented. A burglar is not an 522 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 1: unwanted shopper. That's not what we call that you don't 523 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 1: get to just make up new things because you like something. 524 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:43,760 Speaker 1: And I'm sorry, you know, we do have to draw 525 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 1: some lines here. If they want to change the federal 526 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 1: statutes and have it say undocumented, fine, then I'll start 527 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 1: saying undocumented. The laws the law, the law says a 528 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 1: legal alien. But I digress, all right, So Acosta, here 529 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 1: here's why I feel a little mixed about this. They 530 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 1: went after the as they went after the story, and 531 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 1: this is all because of Trump, right, That's why. Or 532 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 1: they're they're trying to as much as they can hang 533 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,560 Speaker 1: this on the Trump administration, even though Trump comes out 534 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 1: of this whole situation. Of all the celebrities who hung 535 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 1: out with them, is there any other celebrity, any other 536 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 1: because remember at the time, he wasn't a politician, he 537 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 1: was a celebrity. Is there anyone else who called out 538 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:23,280 Speaker 1: Epstein and stood up to him and said that, you know, 539 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 1: you're you're a gross monster, get out of my face. 540 00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 1: Bill Clinton never did that, you know, Woody Allen never 541 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 1: did that. Prince whatever his name is, the other guy, 542 00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:37,680 Speaker 1: that's which one of them? Andrew? Is it Andrew or 543 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 1: it's one of the princes. I can't I don't know 544 00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 1: who can keep it all straight. One of the princes 545 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 1: used to hang, yeah, I think it is. But the 546 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:46,280 Speaker 1: list of celebrities and super long list long. Yeah, it's 547 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 1: a very long list. But of all of that whole list, 548 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 1: producer might correct me if I'm wrong. The only one 549 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 1: who called out Epstein for being a weirdo was Trump, 550 00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:57,920 Speaker 1: So I think that that should at least be a 551 00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 1: prominent part of what we all think of here. I mean, 552 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 1: Trump was like, get out of here, your your band, 553 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,400 Speaker 1: you're a jerk. I mean, he's not a prosecutor. He's not. 554 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:07,720 Speaker 1: It's not on him to bring charges or whatever. You know, 555 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 1: he doesn't. He doesn't know what's going on. But that 556 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 1: can't be said for Acosta. So as much as as 557 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:19,000 Speaker 1: much as I know that they really just wanted to 558 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:22,960 Speaker 1: scalp them administration and they got one. Now we can't. 559 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 1: We can't defend everybody all the time. There has to 560 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 1: there has to be accountability. And I know this was 561 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:31,400 Speaker 1: a long time ago, but I think a Costa makes 562 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 1: the right move here. He I do believe that he 563 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 1: probably chose to do this himself. But they were just 564 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:37,800 Speaker 1: going to keep hammering this and hammering this and hammering this, 565 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 1: and you know, Labor secretary, this is not the Secretary 566 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:44,560 Speaker 1: of State. This is not the Secretary of Defense. We 567 00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:47,600 Speaker 1: don't need it. We don't need the distraction. The movement, 568 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 1: the Trump movement, the Trump White House does not need 569 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:53,960 Speaker 1: this distraction. And you know, we had ann on yesterday 570 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,960 Speaker 1: and I always have fun, always have fun. It was 571 00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 1: top top five favorite guests for your producer, Mike. Would 572 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 1: you say, Yeah, She's hilarious. He's the best. She's so 573 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 1: funny when we're not on radio either, and she generally 574 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 1: enjoys it. You know, she really does, dude. She's a 575 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 1: happy warrior. She's she's I'm ever. Everyone knows. I can't 576 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:16,000 Speaker 1: hide it. I think Coulter's the best. Um. But the 577 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 1: the truth is, and I was talking about this yesterday 578 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 1: with a Costa, is that you know, it needed to 579 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 1: be more. He needed to bring the full indictment. If 580 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:26,959 Speaker 1: you're going to be a federal prosecutor and you got 581 00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:34,640 Speaker 1: some guy that is engaged in systematic, repeated and egregious 582 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 1: predation against against young girls, against kids, if you're not 583 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:42,719 Speaker 1: going to use the full weight of your office against that, 584 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:44,600 Speaker 1: what what are you going to use the full weight 585 00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 1: of your office against You know, if if you're not 586 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 1: gonna go for the wo would anyone really have blamed well, 587 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:51,720 Speaker 1: I was gonna say when anyone blamed a Costa, not 588 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:54,280 Speaker 1: normal people, but clearly the fact that he was a 589 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 1: Democrat donor that Epstein was a Democrat donor. You know, 590 00:32:57,720 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 1: if he had taken it, you know, if you if 591 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:01,360 Speaker 1: you take a shout the king, you must not miss 592 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 1: if he had gone after Epstein with a big indictment 593 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 1: and for some reason, you know, Epstein had a very 594 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:12,520 Speaker 1: very sophisticated, very expensive legal team. If that had fallen apart, 595 00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 1: you know, Acosta would have paid the price professionally. But 596 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:17,880 Speaker 1: that's where I always say, you know, whenever one of 597 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,480 Speaker 1: these bureaucrats is like, yeah, but I couldn't you know, 598 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:22,960 Speaker 1: if I taking the risk, it would have Yeah. I 599 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 1: mean tell that to all the all the members of 600 00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:29,840 Speaker 1: the US militarist saw on a Rock and Afghanistan, you know, 601 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:32,440 Speaker 1: walking around the streets of these dusty villages, trying to 602 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:35,520 Speaker 1: keep people safe and trying to keep maniacs from song 603 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 1: people's heads off on video. You know, if they can 604 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:41,400 Speaker 1: take that risk, A Costa could have taken the risk 605 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:46,000 Speaker 1: of bringing heavier charges against a big Democrat donor and 606 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 1: just deal with the consequences. You know. I don't think 607 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:52,640 Speaker 1: it's too much to expect some degree of professional ethics 608 00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 1: and maybe even a little professional courage from people that 609 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 1: I've been given a tremendous amount of power to defend 610 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:00,800 Speaker 1: the defense list. And that's really what would have been 611 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 1: going on here. These young girls were defenseless. They were 612 00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:07,920 Speaker 1: relying on somebody like Alex Acosta that had come along 613 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:10,680 Speaker 1: and get some measure of justice for them, and he failed. 614 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:13,319 Speaker 1: So in that, in that, I think this is the 615 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:16,040 Speaker 1: right outcome, and I the President, I think handled it 616 00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:18,759 Speaker 1: with class. I think this was that he said that 617 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:20,960 Speaker 1: Alex did a great job, and you know, this was 618 00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:24,120 Speaker 1: his decision. But it's it has become a distraction. This 619 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:26,000 Speaker 1: has been handled well. I think the good news is 620 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:28,839 Speaker 1: that we'll all be able to move past this very soon. 621 00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:32,040 Speaker 1: But I don't want us to move beyond this. There's 622 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:36,400 Speaker 1: a difference. I want more answers. I don't believe that 623 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:41,560 Speaker 1: a Costa didn't receive, you know, some pressure to give 624 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:43,480 Speaker 1: it to give a lenient deal here. I just don't 625 00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:46,359 Speaker 1: believe that. I don't think that that's possible. I think 626 00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 1: that there were people that were pushing for Epstein. I 627 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:51,960 Speaker 1: know that the Palm Beach District attorney was. I mean, 628 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:53,680 Speaker 1: you can just tell he cared about the fact that 629 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 1: this guy was a big Democrat tone or writing big 630 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 1: checks to people. You know, he still don't know how 631 00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:00,960 Speaker 1: he made his money, and you know, how hard can 632 00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:02,960 Speaker 1: this be to figure out there's something going on here. 633 00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:06,840 Speaker 1: I worry that now that the Democrat media has tried 634 00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:09,080 Speaker 1: to they've tried to sully Trump with this, they haven't 635 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:12,120 Speaker 1: really succeeded. But I do worry that their next move, 636 00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:14,359 Speaker 1: their next trick, is going to be, well, they're gonna 637 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:17,480 Speaker 1: move past this and bury it because they don't want 638 00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:21,759 Speaker 1: a situation in which this could blow back on a Democrat. 639 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,080 Speaker 1: I mean, we're Bill Clinton already lied, his office already 640 00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:27,359 Speaker 1: lied about this. No one seems to care. I guess 641 00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 1: because Bill just likes to law about things. He just 642 00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:33,319 Speaker 1: you know, can't remember. Now, He's just you know, wants 643 00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 1: to hang out with all the different ladies and not 644 00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:38,840 Speaker 1: have to ask any questions and you know all that stuff. 645 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:42,879 Speaker 1: They still kind of protect him. I think that's what's 646 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 1: going on here. So we will not let this slide. 647 00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 1: Can you believe are you a citizen of the United 648 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:54,160 Speaker 1: States of America? Sir? You can't ask that question? Why 649 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 1: because the courts said you can't. We have three very 650 00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 1: unfriendly courts. They fight us all the way. The judges 651 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:04,000 Speaker 1: don't like us too much, I guess. But think of that, herman, 652 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 1: Think of that question, are you a citizen? We spend 653 00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:13,120 Speaker 1: This is another thing that's so crazy. Twenty billion dollars 654 00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:16,360 Speaker 1: on a census, twenty billion. They spend twenty billion. They 655 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:20,239 Speaker 1: said twenty billion. What twenty billion dollars or the census. 656 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,880 Speaker 1: They go through houses, they go up, they ring doorbells, 657 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:27,000 Speaker 1: they talk to people. How many toilets do they have? 658 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 1: How many desks do they have? Many beds? What's their 659 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:33,840 Speaker 1: roof made of? The only thing we can't ask is 660 00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:36,840 Speaker 1: are you a citizen of the United States? No? Is 661 00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:41,320 Speaker 1: this the craziest thing. This is where Trump's real genius 662 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,840 Speaker 1: comes in, because you know, there's there's all these different 663 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:47,799 Speaker 1: ways to talk about the census question. To talk about 664 00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:51,120 Speaker 1: the census issue, you can make You can make a 665 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:54,600 Speaker 1: very eloquent case about how it's necessary for the apportionment 666 00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:59,440 Speaker 1: of members that are representatives and maybe for enforcing the 667 00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:03,440 Speaker 1: Voting Rights Act. And there's all these different things that 668 00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 1: you can point to and say, Okay, well this is 669 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:14,640 Speaker 1: this is yet another reason why we should have the 670 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 1: citizenship question, or you can just point out how completely bonkers, crazy, absurd. 671 00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:23,319 Speaker 1: This whole situation is where you have a census that 672 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:27,359 Speaker 1: can ask basically anything. I mean, they ask you know, 673 00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:29,759 Speaker 1: as you say, you know what kind of tile do 674 00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:32,680 Speaker 1: you have in your bathroom? You know how much fruit 675 00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 1: juice do you drink in the morning. They can ask 676 00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:38,840 Speaker 1: any questions they want and all kinds of random government 677 00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:42,960 Speaker 1: just wants data stuff. The government's just asking you to 678 00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:46,440 Speaker 1: tell them stuff about you, so the government knows more 679 00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:49,680 Speaker 1: about the American people and hopefully can govern us better. Right, 680 00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:51,279 Speaker 1: that's what this is all about. And this goes back 681 00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 1: to the founding and it's been around for a long time. 682 00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:56,080 Speaker 1: Some of you probably like, yeah, buck, census, that's right, 683 00:37:56,200 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 1: didn't didn't you know Jesus Mary. And if there was 684 00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:02,279 Speaker 1: a sense that's going on, then too, Right, this is 685 00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:04,520 Speaker 1: stuff that that's been around for a very long time. 686 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:08,760 Speaker 1: Governments want to know how many people are within their borders. 687 00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:13,200 Speaker 1: It's very important for them, so that it's very important 688 00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:15,080 Speaker 1: if you're going to have a real government. So but 689 00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:18,439 Speaker 1: Trump's point here is just think about this. You can 690 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:21,560 Speaker 1: ask Democrats are okay with really any question other than 691 00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:24,920 Speaker 1: are you a citizen? And this is all about governing 692 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:28,400 Speaker 1: and about understanding who's in the country, because citizenship doesn't 693 00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 1: really matter to Democrats. It's just bodies. Now, who's here. 694 00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:34,600 Speaker 1: That's all that they care about. They don't really want 695 00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:38,279 Speaker 1: to treat any person differently based on citizenship. But you 696 00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:41,880 Speaker 1: see that that starts to erode the very foundations of 697 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:47,040 Speaker 1: our polity, That starts to pull apart the American the 698 00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:52,200 Speaker 1: American state, big s state. They got no issues with 699 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:53,839 Speaker 1: that though, because they figure even if they pull it apart, 700 00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:55,040 Speaker 1: they'll be the ones that have to put it back 701 00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:57,440 Speaker 1: together and they'll be in charge then, and so there's 702 00:38:56,880 --> 00:39:01,320 Speaker 1: no big problem. So you know ag Barr, who's also 703 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:06,880 Speaker 1: Attorney General, Bill Barr, he's a very straightforward, no nonsense 704 00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:12,120 Speaker 1: kind of guy, and he even says, yeah, look, how 705 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,319 Speaker 1: can anybody really argue with I mean, Democrats are arguing 706 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 1: to get this against us all over the place. The 707 00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:18,720 Speaker 1: question used to be on the census, but they're still 708 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:21,479 Speaker 1: arguing against it. It's racist now. I guess it wasn't 709 00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:24,080 Speaker 1: racist until nineteen fifty, but now it's a racist question. 710 00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:29,400 Speaker 1: Congratulations on today's executive order, which will ensure that we 711 00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:33,400 Speaker 1: finally have an accurate understanding of how many citizens and 712 00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:38,840 Speaker 1: non citizens live in our country. As the Supreme Court recognized, 713 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:42,279 Speaker 1: it would be perfectly lawful for the federal government to 714 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:46,640 Speaker 1: ask on the census whether individuals are citizens of the 715 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:50,719 Speaker 1: United States, and it's entirely reasonable to want to know 716 00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:53,799 Speaker 1: how many citizens and non citizens there are in the 717 00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:58,160 Speaker 1: United States. In fact, the federal government has routinely asked 718 00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:02,920 Speaker 1: questions relating to citizens ship ever since the eighteen twenties, 719 00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:05,239 Speaker 1: so this has been around for a very long time. 720 00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:08,439 Speaker 1: Oh but you may be saying, Buck, what executive order? 721 00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:11,399 Speaker 1: Ah see that would like to keep it a little 722 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:15,520 Speaker 1: bit of suspense. Sometimes we sometimes we switch things around 723 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:18,359 Speaker 1: a little bit just to see if we can keep 724 00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:21,480 Speaker 1: you on your toes. That's right. Trump issued an executive order. 725 00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:26,600 Speaker 1: Here's here's what's happened. Instead of instead of I mean, 726 00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:30,960 Speaker 1: I'm an extremely stable genius, it's true, extremely stable genius. 727 00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:36,080 Speaker 1: Yep uh. Instead of deciding that he was going to 728 00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:38,720 Speaker 1: use the or that the census will be the vehicle 729 00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 1: for finding out about citizenship status and the number of 730 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:43,480 Speaker 1: illegal aliens in the country, which we really do want 731 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:46,600 Speaker 1: to know. We need to know this that that's especially 732 00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:49,520 Speaker 1: if we're going to start making determinations about about who 733 00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:52,239 Speaker 1: to put on a pathway to citizenship, who to give 734 00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:55,000 Speaker 1: ambsty to ambisty to all these things. Don't we need 735 00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 1: to know where we already are in terms of the number, 736 00:40:57,520 --> 00:40:59,240 Speaker 1: because I think it would affect a lot of people 737 00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:01,160 Speaker 1: if they found out that, oh, no, there's not eleven million, 738 00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:03,920 Speaker 1: there's twenty or twenty five million, and we're going to 739 00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,520 Speaker 1: add now you know, a few more million a year 740 00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:09,800 Speaker 1: because of our current policies at the southern border. I 741 00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:12,080 Speaker 1: think people should know what they're getting into. I think 742 00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:14,920 Speaker 1: they should know what's really happening and what's happening to 743 00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:20,080 Speaker 1: this country because of the now I would say overt 744 00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:24,920 Speaker 1: assistance of the Democratic Party in the illegal immigration scam. 745 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:28,759 Speaker 1: But Trump is issuing an executive order that's telling all 746 00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:31,560 Speaker 1: the different government agencies out there, you know what, you 747 00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:35,319 Speaker 1: have to do everything you can to collect information to 748 00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:39,560 Speaker 1: find out who is in this country legally and illegally. Okay, 749 00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:43,000 Speaker 1: I will be issuing an executive order to put this 750 00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:48,920 Speaker 1: very plan into effect immediately. I am here by ordering 751 00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:52,960 Speaker 1: every department and agency in the federal government to provide 752 00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:57,360 Speaker 1: the Department of Commerce with all requested records regarding the 753 00:41:57,520 --> 00:42:01,040 Speaker 1: number of citizens and non citizens in our We will 754 00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:04,160 Speaker 1: be able to ensure the twenty twenty census generates an 755 00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:08,840 Speaker 1: accurate account of how many citizens, non citizens, and illegal 756 00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:14,919 Speaker 1: aliens are in the United States of America. How could 757 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:18,440 Speaker 1: anyone really have a problem with that? Why would anyone 758 00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:22,920 Speaker 1: oppose that? You know that. You know, Democrats don't like this. 759 00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:26,120 Speaker 1: They're they're very upset at this. Why don't they want 760 00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:29,960 Speaker 1: to know how many legals are in the country. You're 761 00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:32,280 Speaker 1: going to find out that the number is well beyond 762 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:34,080 Speaker 1: what we've been told in the past. I mean that much. 763 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:37,960 Speaker 1: I'm quite certain about. And I think that the American 764 00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:41,080 Speaker 1: people will be really, really angry about this. I think 765 00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:44,200 Speaker 1: that there will be a sense that we've been lied 766 00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:47,399 Speaker 1: to by both parties for a long time, because, if 767 00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:51,120 Speaker 1: nothing else, there is a massive failure to enforce the 768 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:53,839 Speaker 1: law here and a lot of people that deal with 769 00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:57,919 Speaker 1: onerous regulation and taxation and all this different up the laws. 770 00:42:57,960 --> 00:42:59,879 Speaker 1: The law got to do this. The laws the law. 771 00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:02,600 Speaker 1: They look around, they say, hold on a second, why 772 00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:05,520 Speaker 1: is the law not the law when it comes to immigration. 773 00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:10,319 Speaker 1: Why why are we supposed to accept that there's there's 774 00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:13,759 Speaker 1: no issue here, there's nothing, nothing to be concerned about, 775 00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:17,879 Speaker 1: even though there is a massive and systematic and flagrant 776 00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:21,520 Speaker 1: violation of our laws going on on a regular basis. 777 00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:25,960 Speaker 1: But it's not just illegal status. By the way, if 778 00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:28,480 Speaker 1: people really dug into this, and they won't, and because 779 00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:31,000 Speaker 1: so few really want to know, at least no one 780 00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:34,040 Speaker 1: in the government bureaucracy wants to know. It's illegal, it's 781 00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:41,560 Speaker 1: illegal crossing, it's illegal status, it's um document fraud, social 782 00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:48,319 Speaker 1: security fraud, benefits fraud, tax fraud, all this, all of 783 00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:54,400 Speaker 1: the different additional violations and crimes that come from or 784 00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:58,240 Speaker 1: come as an attendant to, in addition to illegal status. 785 00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:00,440 Speaker 1: That that's and this is going on now across the 786 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:04,320 Speaker 1: country and has been for decades. And you have people 787 00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:07,040 Speaker 1: that do have the power to vote, as I've said, 788 00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:10,200 Speaker 1: who are legally in total to vote, because we've we 789 00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:12,479 Speaker 1: have a Supreme Court opinion that says, if you're born 790 00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 1: in this country and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, it's 791 00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:17,240 Speaker 1: not even really an opinion. I think it's a footnote. 792 00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:19,799 Speaker 1: In a Supreme Court case, we say, if you're born 793 00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:23,080 Speaker 1: in this country, you're a US you're a US national. 794 00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:26,719 Speaker 1: It's really not supposed to be that simple. It's not 795 00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:28,680 Speaker 1: supposed to be if you are born here, because if 796 00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:30,400 Speaker 1: you're a foreign diplomat and you're born here, you're not 797 00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:33,560 Speaker 1: a citizen. If you are born in a foreign country 798 00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:37,720 Speaker 1: and you are a US citizen and you're the children 799 00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:39,960 Speaker 1: of diplomats, for example, you're stationed in Beijing, you're not 800 00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:42,160 Speaker 1: a Chinese citizen. You're a US citizen, and you're born abroad, 801 00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:45,080 Speaker 1: it's not just about the location of where you're born. 802 00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:47,239 Speaker 1: That has That has not been that has not been 803 00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:51,560 Speaker 1: the case. But now you have entire generations who feel 804 00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:55,640 Speaker 1: like their families, in fact, the their story of America 805 00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:59,080 Speaker 1: starts with an illegal crossing. And you have one political 806 00:44:59,120 --> 00:45:03,560 Speaker 1: party that says, that's great, that's wonderful, congratulations on being 807 00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:06,759 Speaker 1: here illegally. Another that says, well, hold on, if nothing else, 808 00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:08,600 Speaker 1: we got to stop this from continuing to happen. It's 809 00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:12,319 Speaker 1: a violation of US sovereignty, and it is undermining the 810 00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:16,279 Speaker 1: processes of immigration and assimilation that we've had in the past. 811 00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:18,920 Speaker 1: The party that's going to tell all those people, hey, 812 00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:20,919 Speaker 1: I know your parents came here illegally, but that's great, 813 00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:24,360 Speaker 1: that's fine. And it's just those mean racist Republicans that 814 00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:27,719 Speaker 1: have a problem with with future illegal crossing. I'm talking 815 00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:30,440 Speaker 1: about the legal crossings that have already happened. They're going 816 00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:32,239 Speaker 1: to vote for the Democrats. They know that this is 817 00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:36,560 Speaker 1: all about power, all about power. It's been about power 818 00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:42,360 Speaker 1: all along. That's what's really happening, that's what's unfolding in 819 00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:45,439 Speaker 1: front of us, and that's why there's such a fight 820 00:45:45,520 --> 00:45:49,200 Speaker 1: over every aspect of immigrations. Democrats don't agree with Republicans 821 00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:54,680 Speaker 1: on anything other than we need bigger, nicer, cleaner facilities 822 00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:56,560 Speaker 1: for the people that are being detained at the border. 823 00:45:56,600 --> 00:45:59,160 Speaker 1: They don't even agree they should be detained, but they 824 00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:01,840 Speaker 1: want bigger, cleaner, nicer facilities courtesy at the US taxpayer, 825 00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:06,560 Speaker 1: more healthcare, you know, more just more resources down there, 826 00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:10,680 Speaker 1: which as we know, they also don't want to add 827 00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:13,399 Speaker 1: any enforcement mechanisms to this, so they're just making it 828 00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:18,719 Speaker 1: increasingly enticing to come into the country illegally. That's that 829 00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:21,640 Speaker 1: is a that's just what is happening right now at 830 00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:24,319 Speaker 1: the border. I don't want us to know how many 831 00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:27,000 Speaker 1: people are here illegally. They don't want to have any 832 00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:30,279 Speaker 1: enforcement mechanism. And this is just now where we are. 833 00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:35,040 Speaker 1: It's it's it's stunning, folks, it really is. The Democrats 834 00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:38,759 Speaker 1: have gone so far left, so hard left on this issue, 835 00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:41,960 Speaker 1: and the next election is going to on immigration that 836 00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:44,480 Speaker 1: I think the next election really is going to be 837 00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:46,040 Speaker 1: the be all end all of whether we have a 838 00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:48,279 Speaker 1: border or not. We will defend the right of the 839 00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:51,879 Speaker 1: American people to know the full facts about the population 840 00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:56,720 Speaker 1: size of citizens and non citizens in America. The Department 841 00:46:56,760 --> 00:47:02,600 Speaker 1: of Commerce sensibly decided to include a citizenship question in 842 00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:07,520 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty census, as has been done many, many 843 00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:12,879 Speaker 1: times throughout the history of the United States. Unfortunately, this 844 00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:17,440 Speaker 1: effort was delayed by meritless litigation. As shocking as it 845 00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:22,040 Speaker 1: may be, far left democrats in our country are determined 846 00:47:22,239 --> 00:47:26,440 Speaker 1: to conceal the number of illegal aliens in our midst 847 00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:30,320 Speaker 1: They probably know the number is far greater, much higher 848 00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:35,520 Speaker 1: than anyone would have ever believed before. Maybe that's why 849 00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:38,560 Speaker 1: they fight so hard. This is part of a broader 850 00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:41,160 Speaker 1: left wing effort to erode the rights of the American 851 00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:45,960 Speaker 1: citizen and is very unfair to our country. There you 852 00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:48,960 Speaker 1: have the president who's he sound like, folks. I'm just 853 00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:51,480 Speaker 1: saying it sounds like somebody you all listen to on 854 00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:54,920 Speaker 1: the radio. This is the point, this is what's going 855 00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:56,880 Speaker 1: on here. They do not want us to have the numbers. 856 00:47:57,680 --> 00:47:59,640 Speaker 1: If the number was accurate, if it was eleven million, 857 00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:03,680 Speaker 1: which they always say, what's all the fuss about, that's 858 00:48:03,719 --> 00:48:07,560 Speaker 1: not the number. There's no way, there's no rational way 859 00:48:07,600 --> 00:48:11,520 Speaker 1: to add this all up numerically or otherwise and think, oh, yeah, 860 00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:16,480 Speaker 1: sure that's the number. And I don't think so. Speaking 861 00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:20,360 Speaker 1: of of the meritless lawsuits, I'd also note that the president, 862 00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:23,239 Speaker 1: you know, won a lawsuit earlier this week where the 863 00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:27,000 Speaker 1: states of Maryland and what was it? Was it Maryland 864 00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:29,880 Speaker 1: and I can't remember which other state it was. I 865 00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:31,719 Speaker 1: think it was Maryland, And then probably the District of 866 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:39,239 Speaker 1: Columbia sued the president under the emoluments clause. And here 867 00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:41,839 Speaker 1: here's what the media doesn't want to tell you, doesn't 868 00:48:41,840 --> 00:48:45,600 Speaker 1: want to get into. Not only was this shut down, 869 00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:49,440 Speaker 1: but this was shut down by the by the federal 870 00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:52,480 Speaker 1: judge overseeing it with some degree of prejudice, who was like, 871 00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:54,920 Speaker 1: I don't even think this is a good usage of 872 00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:57,879 Speaker 1: the courts, as in, this is some crap you guys 873 00:48:57,920 --> 00:49:01,960 Speaker 1: are trying to pull here against the president. There is 874 00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:06,399 Speaker 1: no pre there's no precedent for saying that somebody who 875 00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:12,239 Speaker 1: owns a public accommodation is being unduly influenced by foreign 876 00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:17,280 Speaker 1: governments because there are foreign people or members of foreign 877 00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:20,239 Speaker 1: governments who go through that hotel. To put this in 878 00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:23,560 Speaker 1: plain English, you had this, You had the state's attorney 879 00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:26,440 Speaker 1: in Maryland bringing the lawsuit here. Look, this is all 880 00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:30,279 Speaker 1: grandstanding legal nonsense, bringing the lawsuit against President Trump at 881 00:49:30,280 --> 00:49:35,560 Speaker 1: administration saying that because you know, the the US ambassador 882 00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:37,760 Speaker 1: or a Kazakh stand or something or sorry, the Kazack 883 00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:40,920 Speaker 1: ambassador of the United States, that's the direction we're talking about, 884 00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:45,120 Speaker 1: because because the Kazack ambassador might go to the Trump Hotel, 885 00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:51,200 Speaker 1: and you know, Bora may have a glass or two 886 00:49:51,200 --> 00:49:55,000 Speaker 1: a wind at Trump Hotel, and that money, after all 887 00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:57,080 Speaker 1: expenses and everything could pay it does go into the 888 00:49:57,280 --> 00:50:02,520 Speaker 1: general fund of of revenue that the Trump Hotel International Hotel, 889 00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:05,160 Speaker 1: which is a fine establishment where I'm known to have 890 00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:08,560 Speaker 1: a drink myself from time to time that that's unduly 891 00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:12,440 Speaker 1: influencing the president. Now, the same people that are bringing 892 00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:16,240 Speaker 1: these lawsuits, and I mean this, there's the same individuals 893 00:50:16,280 --> 00:50:18,640 Speaker 1: that that support this lawsuit and that are publicly talking 894 00:50:18,640 --> 00:50:22,840 Speaker 1: about all this. Those same folks will look you straight 895 00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:25,960 Speaker 1: in the eye and say that there is no problem whatsoever. 896 00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:32,840 Speaker 1: There is nothing wrong with Bill Clinton getting paid half 897 00:50:32,880 --> 00:50:37,680 Speaker 1: a million dollars for a single speech by a Russian 898 00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:40,640 Speaker 1: state backed bank, which is really the same thing. A 899 00:50:40,719 --> 00:50:43,239 Speaker 1: Russian bank is a state backed bank, right by a 900 00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:48,120 Speaker 1: Russian state bank. While his wife is Secretary of State 901 00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:52,960 Speaker 1: specifically dealing with foreign policy, Bill Clinton got paid half 902 00:50:53,120 --> 00:50:56,400 Speaker 1: a million dollars by a Russian bank. And did you 903 00:50:56,440 --> 00:50:59,560 Speaker 1: see was anyone suing the State Department records and trying 904 00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:02,520 Speaker 1: to cause big to do about what was? The Clintons 905 00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:05,759 Speaker 1: were so corrupt that we were overwhelmed by it. But 906 00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:07,640 Speaker 1: this is not what about is, And that's all that's 907 00:51:07,880 --> 00:51:11,040 Speaker 1: intellectually lazy. This is this is looking at two issues 908 00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:13,960 Speaker 1: and saying, do we have one standard? This is not 909 00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:15,920 Speaker 1: a this is some other thing that I'm trying to 910 00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:18,080 Speaker 1: change the subject to. These are okay, we have two 911 00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:23,160 Speaker 1: similar circumstances. Foreign involved payment to prominent individuals on the 912 00:51:23,239 --> 00:51:26,080 Speaker 1: left and the right. How does the media treat it? 913 00:51:26,480 --> 00:51:29,439 Speaker 1: What is the you know, what is the outcome here? 914 00:51:29,840 --> 00:51:32,560 Speaker 1: And the Clintons were allowed to get away with just 915 00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:37,839 Speaker 1: mind boggling corruption. No one did you? Did you even 916 00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:41,960 Speaker 1: hear of the emoluments clause during the Obama administration when 917 00:51:42,040 --> 00:51:45,040 Speaker 1: Hillary was was Secretary of State? Of course not most 918 00:51:45,080 --> 00:51:47,160 Speaker 1: people learn that the emoluments clause was now because a 919 00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:50,000 Speaker 1: bunch of anti Trump lawyers were like, I've got it. 920 00:51:50,239 --> 00:51:53,160 Speaker 1: I know how he could take up down the emoluments clause. Yeah, 921 00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:57,920 Speaker 1: that's right, guys, just violated the Constitution. I'm also going 922 00:51:57,960 --> 00:52:01,239 Speaker 1: to bring suit against him for treason, iracy, and counterfeitings. 923 00:52:01,239 --> 00:52:04,640 Speaker 1: That's also in the constitution. Did he do any of 924 00:52:04,680 --> 00:52:06,920 Speaker 1: those things? No? But why not just bring the lawsuit? 925 00:52:07,800 --> 00:52:10,040 Speaker 1: It's all Trump arrangement syndrome, folks. A lot of people, 926 00:52:10,640 --> 00:52:14,279 Speaker 1: a lot of people unfortunately in America today have j 927 00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:20,800 Speaker 1: d's and also have TDS. They're lawyers with Trump derangement syndrome. 928 00:52:20,880 --> 00:52:22,560 Speaker 1: So that was you know, you hurl us up about 929 00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:26,080 Speaker 1: the emolument's clause. Those states were basically laughed out of 930 00:52:26,080 --> 00:52:27,960 Speaker 1: the courtroom by the judge, like, you guys have got 931 00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:30,320 Speaker 1: to be kidding me. This is not what the founders 932 00:52:30,360 --> 00:52:33,680 Speaker 1: had in mind. So you know, you own a hotel 933 00:52:34,080 --> 00:52:36,319 Speaker 1: and somebody from a foreign country buys a beer there. 934 00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:38,719 Speaker 1: That doesn't mean that they're calling the shots on us 935 00:52:38,760 --> 00:52:41,880 Speaker 1: foreign policy. Not everybody is for sale the way the 936 00:52:41,920 --> 00:52:45,319 Speaker 1: Clintons were. The wall is being built. The wall is 937 00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:48,200 Speaker 1: being built. We had a couple of very good decisions. 938 00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:52,680 Speaker 1: We had one bad decision. It's very tough. Again. Paul 939 00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:57,120 Speaker 1: Ryan let us down. Paul Ryan was a terrible speaker. Frankly, 940 00:52:57,239 --> 00:52:58,879 Speaker 1: he was a baby. He didn't know what the hell 941 00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:05,360 Speaker 1: he was doing. Wow, President Trump not messing around. Do 942 00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:07,279 Speaker 1: we have a do we have a Trump slab? We 943 00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:10,719 Speaker 1: gotta come up with like the biggest slab, the most luxurious, 944 00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:15,200 Speaker 1: the most incredible slab, because that was a Trump slab 945 00:53:15,360 --> 00:53:17,880 Speaker 1: that wasn't even a buck slab. He called him, He 946 00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:20,880 Speaker 1: called the forward speaker of the House a baby. I 947 00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:23,040 Speaker 1: guess it's because Paul Ryan has a has a book 948 00:53:23,040 --> 00:53:26,520 Speaker 1: that's coming out where he says things about the things 949 00:53:26,560 --> 00:53:30,440 Speaker 1: about Trump. Um, oh there, oh no, this is I'm sorry. 950 00:53:30,560 --> 00:53:35,839 Speaker 1: In a book. In the book American Carnage This is 951 00:53:36,400 --> 00:53:41,080 Speaker 1: because what happened here. This is the book that's written. 952 00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:47,160 Speaker 1: Tim Alberta of Politico has written this book, and Ryan 953 00:53:47,320 --> 00:53:49,799 Speaker 1: condemns Trump. In the book, says he could not stand 954 00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:52,359 Speaker 1: the idea of another two years the Republican President's our 955 00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:55,600 Speaker 1: retirement as an escape patch. Wow. Ryan's quote is saying, 956 00:53:55,640 --> 00:53:57,960 Speaker 1: I'm telling you he didn't know anything about government. I 957 00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:02,920 Speaker 1: wanted to scold him all the time. Okay, so let's 958 00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:04,640 Speaker 1: let's just play this out for a minute, shall we. 959 00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:07,759 Speaker 1: Team Here's the basics of it, because I think this 960 00:54:07,840 --> 00:54:13,319 Speaker 1: is a very instructive Trump versus the establishment moment. Paul 961 00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:15,719 Speaker 1: Ryan was and I remember this because he was a 962 00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:18,560 Speaker 1: tea party darling for a little while. Everyone said, oh, 963 00:54:18,600 --> 00:54:20,200 Speaker 1: he's the guy. And he did not do very well 964 00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:22,399 Speaker 1: on a debate against Joe Biden back in twenty twelve 965 00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:26,240 Speaker 1: or twenty eleven, whatever he was not that was twenty twelve. 966 00:54:26,320 --> 00:54:30,680 Speaker 1: He was not able to do the things that we 967 00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:32,080 Speaker 1: were all told he was going to do. Now he was, 968 00:54:32,120 --> 00:54:34,080 Speaker 1: he was Speaker of the House. What really is Paul 969 00:54:34,160 --> 00:54:38,440 Speaker 1: Ryan's legacy. You know, he's supposed to be the big 970 00:54:38,480 --> 00:54:40,279 Speaker 1: budget guy. He's going to turn things around with the 971 00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:43,239 Speaker 1: budget When do you think of Paul Ryan? Now, what 972 00:54:43,239 --> 00:54:45,920 Speaker 1: do you think of what was accomplished when he was 973 00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:48,319 Speaker 1: Speaker of the House. You know you talk about nuke Gegrich. Yeah, 974 00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:50,160 Speaker 1: there's some stuff when he was Speaker of the House. Right, 975 00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:51,960 Speaker 1: do you think of nuke Genggrich? What do he had 976 00:54:51,960 --> 00:54:57,000 Speaker 1: a balanced trying to balance budget actually went into a surplus. 977 00:54:57,080 --> 00:55:00,480 Speaker 1: I mean, what do we have here? And getting Trump 978 00:55:00,560 --> 00:55:02,000 Speaker 1: to work with him? And triangle I mean to starry 979 00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:05,000 Speaker 1: about Trump Clinton and triangulation and all this stuff. Paul 980 00:55:05,080 --> 00:55:08,000 Speaker 1: Ryan brought what to the table? What did he manage 981 00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:09,920 Speaker 1: to accomment? Now, I've heard, I will say, I've heard 982 00:55:09,920 --> 00:55:12,120 Speaker 1: he's a very nice guy. I don't have any I 983 00:55:12,120 --> 00:55:14,239 Speaker 1: don't have any problem with Paul Ryan. I actually have 984 00:55:14,360 --> 00:55:17,200 Speaker 1: not interviewed him. He's one of the few very senior 985 00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:21,640 Speaker 1: Republican figures, well former Republican figures on the scene whom 986 00:55:21,680 --> 00:55:25,480 Speaker 1: I've never interviewed. But you know, I hear he's a 987 00:55:25,480 --> 00:55:28,319 Speaker 1: good dude. But I think he's way out of line here, 988 00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:29,560 Speaker 1: or at least I think he's out of line in 989 00:55:29,600 --> 00:55:31,200 Speaker 1: this book when he's talking about Trump doesn't know nay 990 00:55:31,200 --> 00:55:34,680 Speaker 1: about government. Okay, let's assume then what Ryan says is true, 991 00:55:35,200 --> 00:55:39,360 Speaker 1: and Trump doesn't know anything about government, Why is Trump 992 00:55:39,400 --> 00:55:43,600 Speaker 1: able to do such a good job. Why is Trump 993 00:55:44,600 --> 00:55:51,560 Speaker 1: clearly a more effective vessel for conservatism than Ryan or 994 00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:54,759 Speaker 1: Romney or any of these guys have been. And how 995 00:55:55,040 --> 00:55:58,520 Speaker 1: do they answer? Do we really care about who would 996 00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:01,839 Speaker 1: win a think knowledge contest? Or do we care about 997 00:56:01,880 --> 00:56:05,279 Speaker 1: who has the policies that do the most for this 998 00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:07,160 Speaker 1: country and that affect you the most in your in 999 00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:11,200 Speaker 1: your life, often by being policies that leave you alone 1000 00:56:11,239 --> 00:56:13,640 Speaker 1: more so you can enjoy your life. And the government's 1001 00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:16,479 Speaker 1: backing off a little bit. But you know, where where 1002 00:56:16,520 --> 00:56:18,399 Speaker 1: does it fall on that? On that spectrum? I mean, 1003 00:56:18,400 --> 00:56:21,200 Speaker 1: that's what you really have to look at. Here. Oh, 1004 00:56:21,239 --> 00:56:25,080 Speaker 1: we also have the President explaining today in a press 1005 00:56:25,120 --> 00:56:27,880 Speaker 1: conference he was Trump was in Fuego today. By the way, Mike, 1006 00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:29,840 Speaker 1: you see this, he was, I did. He was in 1007 00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:32,279 Speaker 1: using forman was one of his form It was one 1008 00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:34,440 Speaker 1: of his days where I was like, we brought presidents 1009 00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:38,440 Speaker 1: not messing around. Uh. Here is here is what he 1010 00:56:38,520 --> 00:56:41,760 Speaker 1: said about Paul Ryan though during his in Fuego press conference. 1011 00:56:41,760 --> 00:56:44,080 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna let the president have a go at it. 1012 00:56:44,320 --> 00:56:48,400 Speaker 1: Paul Ryan it's not a talent. He wasn't a leader. 1013 00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:54,840 Speaker 1: When the people in Freedom and Great Congressman wanted to 1014 00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:58,000 Speaker 1: go after the Dems the things that they did very badly, 1015 00:56:58,920 --> 00:57:02,920 Speaker 1: he wouldn't give hippe whereas Nancy Pelous he hands him 1016 00:57:02,960 --> 00:57:07,520 Speaker 1: out like their cookies. Paul Ryan was a lamed up 1017 00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:10,400 Speaker 1: for a long time as speaker. He was unable to 1018 00:57:10,480 --> 00:57:14,480 Speaker 1: raise money, he lost control of the House. The only 1019 00:57:14,560 --> 00:57:17,720 Speaker 1: success Paul Ryan had was the time that he was 1020 00:57:17,800 --> 00:57:22,320 Speaker 1: with me, because we got taxes cut, I got regulation cuts. 1021 00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:26,479 Speaker 1: I did that mostly without him. But for Paul Ryan 1022 00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:29,240 Speaker 1: to be complaining is pretty amazing. I remember a day 1023 00:57:30,080 --> 00:57:33,280 Speaker 1: in Wisconsin, the state that I won, where I stood 1024 00:57:33,320 --> 00:57:35,600 Speaker 1: up and made his speech and then I introduced him 1025 00:57:35,720 --> 00:57:38,520 Speaker 1: and they bowed him off the stage ten thousand people. 1026 00:57:38,920 --> 00:57:40,920 Speaker 1: So for him to be going out and opening his 1027 00:57:41,040 --> 00:57:44,200 Speaker 1: mouth is pretty incredible. But maybe he gets paid for that, 1028 00:57:44,280 --> 00:57:47,680 Speaker 1: who knows. I just can't imagine being Paul Ryan and 1029 00:57:47,760 --> 00:57:51,000 Speaker 1: speaking to a political journalist. I'm assuming that's what happened here, 1030 00:57:51,880 --> 00:57:55,400 Speaker 1: speaking badly about the president. I just what purpose of 1031 00:57:55,400 --> 00:57:57,160 Speaker 1: the Politico is a left wing site? The guy's a 1032 00:57:57,200 --> 00:57:59,680 Speaker 1: left wing journalist writing a book that just meant to 1033 00:57:59,680 --> 00:58:03,240 Speaker 1: track Trump. Why feed into that? Why help you know? 1034 00:58:03,840 --> 00:58:06,280 Speaker 1: It's It's a little bit like you can criticize a 1035 00:58:06,320 --> 00:58:08,720 Speaker 1: family from within the family, but everybody knows the difference 1036 00:58:09,240 --> 00:58:12,439 Speaker 1: between talking to a family member in a way where 1037 00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:15,640 Speaker 1: you want them to shape up or be a little 1038 00:58:15,680 --> 00:58:18,479 Speaker 1: bit better, or be a little more considerate, versus going 1039 00:58:18,480 --> 00:58:21,040 Speaker 1: outside the family and trashing a member of your family 1040 00:58:21,080 --> 00:58:23,720 Speaker 1: to people are that are outside that circle. These are 1041 00:58:23,760 --> 00:58:28,480 Speaker 1: different things. I'm fine with criticizing Trump. I criticize Trump. 1042 00:58:28,520 --> 00:58:30,919 Speaker 1: I think that there's plenty of room in this administration 1043 00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:34,800 Speaker 1: for improvement. There'll always be room in any administration for improvement. 1044 00:58:35,360 --> 00:58:40,560 Speaker 1: That said, I don't understand its mentality. All these former 1045 00:58:40,760 --> 00:58:44,080 Speaker 1: Republican officials or even some current ones, not as many 1046 00:58:44,120 --> 00:58:46,560 Speaker 1: of these days have of Yeah, let me help the 1047 00:58:46,600 --> 00:58:51,320 Speaker 1: cause of conservatism by assisting the enemies of conservatism. This 1048 00:58:51,360 --> 00:58:55,360 Speaker 1: is the never Trump mantra. In taking down the administration 1049 00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:58,720 Speaker 1: in some way, in undermining administration in some way, you 1050 00:58:58,840 --> 00:59:02,160 Speaker 1: do not help your army get better at fighting by 1051 00:59:02,200 --> 00:59:05,520 Speaker 1: helping the enemy destroy your army, right, this is this 1052 00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:08,280 Speaker 1: logic does not work. And let me also say this, 1053 00:59:08,560 --> 00:59:11,000 Speaker 1: Paul Ryan on the border, we're lucky he's not around now. 1054 00:59:11,160 --> 00:59:14,800 Speaker 1: Ryan the border, he was terrible on the border. He 1055 00:59:14,960 --> 00:59:17,360 Speaker 1: was like a guest worker. The more the merrier, No 1056 00:59:17,400 --> 00:59:19,920 Speaker 1: one needs to be deported. Let's create amnesty. They'll pay 1057 00:59:19,920 --> 00:59:22,200 Speaker 1: a back pay fine thing or whatever. I mean, it 1058 00:59:22,280 --> 00:59:25,600 Speaker 1: was all nonsense. He was basically Marco Rubio in the 1059 00:59:25,640 --> 00:59:29,120 Speaker 1: house with the Gang of Gang of eight amnesty. So 1060 00:59:29,360 --> 00:59:31,080 Speaker 1: Ryan on the board he's actually worse than that. And 1061 00:59:31,200 --> 00:59:33,600 Speaker 1: Ryan on the border was he's really like out of 1062 00:59:33,640 --> 00:59:37,840 Speaker 1: the Cato libertarian think tank world, very close to where 1063 00:59:37,840 --> 00:59:39,600 Speaker 1: the Democrats are now, and just if you want to 1064 00:59:39,600 --> 00:59:40,920 Speaker 1: come in here, you should be able to come in here. 1065 00:59:40,960 --> 00:59:43,680 Speaker 1: So at least it's good that Ryan's not messing things 1066 00:59:43,800 --> 00:59:46,080 Speaker 1: up with that. It's Friday Team, So sometimes I like 1067 00:59:46,160 --> 00:59:48,840 Speaker 1: to just have one of our dear friends, one of 1068 00:59:48,840 --> 00:59:50,960 Speaker 1: our team buck insiders, just come and hang out and 1069 00:59:50,960 --> 00:59:52,600 Speaker 1: talk about the news of the week and tell us 1070 00:59:52,640 --> 00:59:54,960 Speaker 1: what's going on in the world. And I can think 1071 00:59:54,960 --> 00:59:58,640 Speaker 1: of few better men, if any, to do exactly that. 1072 00:59:58,720 --> 01:00:01,240 Speaker 1: Then the one and only s On Parnell folks, you 1073 01:00:01,280 --> 01:00:04,960 Speaker 1: know him because he's in general American badass guy. Was 1074 01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:09,040 Speaker 1: in Afghanistan. Army ranger wrote a fantastic book Outlaw Platoon. 1075 01:00:09,080 --> 01:00:11,680 Speaker 1: I've read a cover to cover, really enjoyed it. Man 1076 01:00:11,680 --> 01:00:15,560 Speaker 1: of War is his latest, and there's a special sale 1077 01:00:15,560 --> 01:00:17,600 Speaker 1: on it this week two dollars you want to buy 1078 01:00:17,680 --> 01:00:20,800 Speaker 1: electronically on Amazon. Man of War is about well, I 1079 01:00:20,840 --> 01:00:22,560 Speaker 1: don't know, Sean, you tell me what it's about. This one. 1080 01:00:22,560 --> 01:00:26,280 Speaker 1: I haven't gotten to yet. Well, it's a military thriller, 1081 01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:28,960 Speaker 1: you know, so I got I got back from Afghanistan. 1082 01:00:29,040 --> 01:00:30,880 Speaker 1: I'm like, what if there was a unit that didn't 1083 01:00:30,920 --> 01:00:34,320 Speaker 1: have any bureaucratic red tape to adhere to? And what if, 1084 01:00:34,400 --> 01:00:37,240 Speaker 1: just what if we could go after high value targets 1085 01:00:37,360 --> 01:00:40,240 Speaker 1: and not be encumbered by you know, higher level chains 1086 01:00:40,240 --> 01:00:43,320 Speaker 1: of command. And so that is sort of the nucleus 1087 01:00:43,360 --> 01:00:45,520 Speaker 1: of this book. And Eric Steele is the operative that 1088 01:00:45,600 --> 01:00:50,520 Speaker 1: the book follows. But hopefully there's hopefully there's a reliable, loyal, 1089 01:00:50,880 --> 01:00:56,320 Speaker 1: but somewhat nerdy analyst back at Langley name Buck Sexton, 1090 01:00:56,800 --> 01:00:59,040 Speaker 1: who is there to make sure that all the memos 1091 01:00:59,040 --> 01:01:01,360 Speaker 1: are written. The cough is hot, you know, right, I mean, 1092 01:01:01,520 --> 01:01:03,680 Speaker 1: you work be in there somewhere. I'm hoping, Well, first 1093 01:01:03,680 --> 01:01:06,840 Speaker 1: of all, I've been granted access to be a Buck 1094 01:01:06,880 --> 01:01:10,640 Speaker 1: Sexton insider for the show. So in Steel three, which 1095 01:01:10,640 --> 01:01:12,680 Speaker 1: I'm writing right now, there is going to be that 1096 01:01:12,720 --> 01:01:15,080 Speaker 1: analyt you're you, You're gonna get You're gonna get a 1097 01:01:15,120 --> 01:01:19,040 Speaker 1: cameo with your own little special character name in book three. Fantastic, 1098 01:01:19,080 --> 01:01:21,840 Speaker 1: That's what I'm talking. You better have a full swoop 1099 01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:24,320 Speaker 1: of hair, Sean Parnell. That's all I've got to say 1100 01:01:24,360 --> 01:01:26,080 Speaker 1: on that one. All right, So, man of Wars coming, 1101 01:01:26,200 --> 01:01:27,600 Speaker 1: I want to ask you, you know a few things 1102 01:01:27,600 --> 01:01:29,120 Speaker 1: this week, because you know you're a man who doesn't 1103 01:01:29,120 --> 01:01:34,080 Speaker 1: mind showing your patriotism standing up for patriotic causes. What 1104 01:01:34,160 --> 01:01:36,240 Speaker 1: do you what do you make and also doesn't mind 1105 01:01:36,240 --> 01:01:37,840 Speaker 1: to do it a little bit of mansplaining. What do 1106 01:01:37,920 --> 01:01:42,320 Speaker 1: you make of the UH women's national teams or so 1107 01:01:42,440 --> 01:01:44,880 Speaker 1: I should say, some players, not all some players and 1108 01:01:44,920 --> 01:01:46,760 Speaker 1: the women's national team in the wake of their victory. 1109 01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:48,680 Speaker 1: Does it bother you? Do you just ignore it? Do 1110 01:01:48,720 --> 01:01:52,040 Speaker 1: you find it? What do you find? I think? Okay, 1111 01:01:52,040 --> 01:01:54,720 Speaker 1: so I think that they embody, you know, all all 1112 01:01:54,760 --> 01:01:57,000 Speaker 1: of them. Just picture in your mind, just for a second, 1113 01:01:57,080 --> 01:02:00,520 Speaker 1: all the male athletes over the last twenty years that 1114 01:02:00,600 --> 01:02:04,240 Speaker 1: are the most annoying, the ones that win and rub 1115 01:02:04,280 --> 01:02:08,560 Speaker 1: those victories in your faces. They're braggettocious, they're in your faith, 1116 01:02:09,400 --> 01:02:13,560 Speaker 1: they're cocky. Uh And to me, some on the women's 1117 01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:18,800 Speaker 1: soccer team embody literally all of the worst qualities of 1118 01:02:18,840 --> 01:02:22,160 Speaker 1: our least favorite male athletes over the last twenty years. 1119 01:02:22,560 --> 01:02:25,400 Speaker 1: And so you know you're watching them, you know how 1120 01:02:25,440 --> 01:02:27,600 Speaker 1: they act during this ticker tape parade. I think it 1121 01:02:27,640 --> 01:02:30,080 Speaker 1: was in New York City, right buck. They did this 1122 01:02:30,120 --> 01:02:32,520 Speaker 1: ticker tape parade for them in New York City with 1123 01:02:32,720 --> 01:02:35,840 Speaker 1: the Blasio and stuff, and they're dropping f bombs and 1124 01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:39,480 Speaker 1: stuff and swearing and putting this stuff on Instagram. And 1125 01:02:39,520 --> 01:02:41,960 Speaker 1: you know, I've got a daughter, an eight year old daughter, 1126 01:02:41,960 --> 01:02:44,240 Speaker 1: and I just think to myself, like, well, of course 1127 01:02:44,280 --> 01:02:45,640 Speaker 1: I want her to be a champion, and I want 1128 01:02:45,680 --> 01:02:48,760 Speaker 1: her to compete intentionally, and I want her to to 1129 01:02:48,760 --> 01:02:50,600 Speaker 1: to live the life that she wants with the freedom, 1130 01:02:50,600 --> 01:02:52,439 Speaker 1: all the freedom in the world. But I don't want 1131 01:02:52,440 --> 01:02:54,320 Speaker 1: her to act like that, because I think that being 1132 01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:57,680 Speaker 1: humble is an important quality of any champion. You know, 1133 01:02:57,680 --> 01:02:59,800 Speaker 1: it doesn't mean that you can't be confident, it doesn't 1134 01:02:59,800 --> 01:03:01,640 Speaker 1: mean you can't like her to be in your face 1135 01:03:01,680 --> 01:03:03,920 Speaker 1: a little bit um but I also think that being 1136 01:03:04,000 --> 01:03:06,920 Speaker 1: humble and self effacing is part of being a champion, 1137 01:03:07,240 --> 01:03:09,480 Speaker 1: and so I think that that's a quality right now 1138 01:03:10,240 --> 01:03:12,840 Speaker 1: that the women's soccer team lacks a little bit. I 1139 01:03:12,840 --> 01:03:16,680 Speaker 1: gotta say, I agree with your a student analysis, and 1140 01:03:16,720 --> 01:03:19,960 Speaker 1: I think that's I think it's very fair minded of you. Well, 1141 01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:22,840 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I want look, I mean, I 1142 01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:24,920 Speaker 1: want them to be. I want them to be. I 1143 01:03:24,960 --> 01:03:27,880 Speaker 1: wanted them to win, you know. But I think I 1144 01:03:27,960 --> 01:03:30,000 Speaker 1: think a perfect microcosum of the point that I'm trying 1145 01:03:30,040 --> 01:03:32,440 Speaker 1: to make is that when they were when they when 1146 01:03:32,440 --> 01:03:35,280 Speaker 1: they won the World Cup, and they're holding the American 1147 01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:38,480 Speaker 1: flag and then they drop it. Now, of course, she 1148 01:03:38,640 --> 01:03:41,600 Speaker 1: probably like she was, she's probably worked up. They had 1149 01:03:41,640 --> 01:03:44,240 Speaker 1: just one. She probably wasn't making straight. She was excited. 1150 01:03:44,480 --> 01:03:46,479 Speaker 1: I give her the grace. I give her the benefit 1151 01:03:46,520 --> 01:03:48,360 Speaker 1: of the doubt to give her grace on that. But 1152 01:03:48,680 --> 01:03:51,160 Speaker 1: they dropped the flag to do some dance in front 1153 01:03:51,200 --> 01:03:54,520 Speaker 1: of the crowd. I mean, thankfully, another US women's soccer 1154 01:03:54,520 --> 01:03:57,120 Speaker 1: player ran and scooped it up and up off the ground. 1155 01:03:57,360 --> 01:04:00,400 Speaker 1: But to me, like, while I'm happy that they won, right, 1156 01:04:00,880 --> 01:04:03,880 Speaker 1: I'm happy that the US is a champion in that game. 1157 01:04:04,320 --> 01:04:06,360 Speaker 1: But it also saddens me to see them treat the 1158 01:04:06,400 --> 01:04:10,400 Speaker 1: flag like that, you know, so so happy today, won 1159 01:04:10,600 --> 01:04:13,439 Speaker 1: I think they could be a little more classy, I think. 1160 01:04:13,520 --> 01:04:15,960 Speaker 1: I think that's for sure. I also think that this 1161 01:04:16,160 --> 01:04:18,600 Speaker 1: uh Repino who is saying, you know who's not a 1162 01:04:18,680 --> 01:04:21,480 Speaker 1: Rapino fan as producer Mike by the way, he does 1163 01:04:21,520 --> 01:04:26,920 Speaker 1: not cuts her, no black, no way, not into it. 1164 01:04:26,960 --> 01:04:28,640 Speaker 1: And she makes it all about her all the time. 1165 01:04:29,200 --> 01:04:32,240 Speaker 1: She does she and so, so here's what drives me 1166 01:04:32,320 --> 01:04:35,240 Speaker 1: crazy that you want to you want to be mainstream, 1167 01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:37,840 Speaker 1: but yet you alienate fifty percent of your audience. And 1168 01:04:37,920 --> 01:04:39,880 Speaker 1: so no, they're not going to go to the Trump 1169 01:04:39,880 --> 01:04:42,800 Speaker 1: White House, but yes they'll they'll hang out with Chuck Chummer. 1170 01:04:43,120 --> 01:04:46,360 Speaker 1: So right there shows you that what she's doing is 1171 01:04:46,360 --> 01:04:50,800 Speaker 1: politically motivated. It's it's about Democrats for versus Republicans somehow 1172 01:04:50,840 --> 01:04:53,400 Speaker 1: now and so, as an athlete, part of your job, 1173 01:04:53,520 --> 01:04:56,600 Speaker 1: especially when you're representing the country on a global stage, 1174 01:04:56,640 --> 01:04:59,920 Speaker 1: you're representing America to the world. Part of your job, 1175 01:05:00,040 --> 01:05:02,000 Speaker 1: I think it's ante and part of your mission in 1176 01:05:02,080 --> 01:05:04,360 Speaker 1: charge is to try to be a unifying force for 1177 01:05:04,400 --> 01:05:07,280 Speaker 1: the country. That's what sports are. I mean it's escapism 1178 01:05:07,320 --> 01:05:10,479 Speaker 1: from politics, I think. And now you've got this sort 1179 01:05:10,520 --> 01:05:14,680 Speaker 1: of divisive political culture bleeding into our sports and embodied 1180 01:05:14,680 --> 01:05:17,720 Speaker 1: by someone like Rapponent, and it's just I just don't 1181 01:05:17,760 --> 01:05:20,240 Speaker 1: want I just think. I just think her actions are 1182 01:05:20,280 --> 01:05:23,560 Speaker 1: a repugnant. It's not necessarily what she stands for. It's 1183 01:05:23,560 --> 01:05:26,160 Speaker 1: not even her political views that bother me. It's it's 1184 01:05:26,200 --> 01:05:29,320 Speaker 1: how he acts when she wins. Now, I'll tell you 1185 01:05:29,480 --> 01:05:30,960 Speaker 1: to think about it like this. Think about it like this. 1186 01:05:31,280 --> 01:05:36,280 Speaker 1: If the US, if there was a national men's sports team, 1187 01:05:36,800 --> 01:05:39,800 Speaker 1: a US men's sports team that was competing globally, and 1188 01:05:39,880 --> 01:05:44,320 Speaker 1: they were acting like the US women's soccer team, people 1189 01:05:44,400 --> 01:05:47,040 Speaker 1: all over the national media would be saying would be saying, 1190 01:05:47,320 --> 01:05:50,800 Speaker 1: this team is out there globally making America look bad, 1191 01:05:51,560 --> 01:05:54,720 Speaker 1: but the women's team doesn't have that problem. I also 1192 01:05:54,760 --> 01:05:57,120 Speaker 1: think that beating a team fourteen to nothing or whatever 1193 01:05:57,160 --> 01:05:59,360 Speaker 1: they did, I think I actually think that was gross. 1194 01:05:59,400 --> 01:06:00,800 Speaker 1: And I know some pop will disagree with you. They 1195 01:06:00,800 --> 01:06:07,040 Speaker 1: say that the point differential, that that no, that's I'm sorry, yeah, 1196 01:06:07,080 --> 01:06:09,080 Speaker 1: they say the point the point differential can be an 1197 01:06:09,080 --> 01:06:12,080 Speaker 1: important factor with regards to like breaking ties or playoffs 1198 01:06:12,080 --> 01:06:14,760 Speaker 1: spots or seating or whatever. But I agree, I think 1199 01:06:15,040 --> 01:06:17,520 Speaker 1: a fourteen goal victory is a little bit is a 1200 01:06:17,520 --> 01:06:24,440 Speaker 1: little bit excessive. Um, it just didn't. Just didn't. The 1201 01:06:24,520 --> 01:06:27,480 Speaker 1: US women's soccer team lose to a bunch of fourteen 1202 01:06:27,520 --> 01:06:29,840 Speaker 1: year olds. That is correct, the under fifteen US national 1203 01:06:29,840 --> 01:06:32,120 Speaker 1: team for under under fifteen, there were fourteen year olds 1204 01:06:32,120 --> 01:06:34,400 Speaker 1: and thirteen year olds. But Sean, let me let me 1205 01:06:34,400 --> 01:06:36,520 Speaker 1: switch to politics here for a second. I'm just wondering, 1206 01:06:36,520 --> 01:06:39,000 Speaker 1: who's if you had to, this is gonna be a 1207 01:06:39,040 --> 01:06:41,600 Speaker 1: this You're not gonna like this question. If you had 1208 01:06:41,640 --> 01:06:44,600 Speaker 1: to pick a Democrat to be your next commander in chief, 1209 01:06:44,600 --> 01:06:48,120 Speaker 1: you have no choice. Donald Trump is on another planet. 1210 01:06:48,200 --> 01:06:50,840 Speaker 1: Aliens have taken our president, and we have to have 1211 01:06:50,880 --> 01:06:55,040 Speaker 1: a Democrat. Who do you pick? This is this is 1212 01:06:55,040 --> 01:06:57,360 Speaker 1: an easy one. In fact, you have me nervous there 1213 01:06:57,400 --> 01:06:59,000 Speaker 1: for a second when you were asking this question. But 1214 01:06:59,040 --> 01:07:00,720 Speaker 1: then it just dawned on me that the answer to 1215 01:07:00,760 --> 01:07:03,760 Speaker 1: that question would be Joe Biden. I think, really, I 1216 01:07:03,800 --> 01:07:07,400 Speaker 1: think that, well, yeah, I don't. I think that he's, 1217 01:07:07,400 --> 01:07:09,360 Speaker 1: in his heart of hearts, a blue dog Democrat that 1218 01:07:09,440 --> 01:07:12,439 Speaker 1: really can't find his play, you know, I mean, he's 1219 01:07:12,480 --> 01:07:14,320 Speaker 1: on these he's on the stage right now. I don't 1220 01:07:14,320 --> 01:07:16,840 Speaker 1: know some of Team Buck is there there, man man 1221 01:07:16,920 --> 01:07:18,840 Speaker 1: where they're about to click buy on that Man of 1222 01:07:18,880 --> 01:07:21,920 Speaker 1: War book and out there now their fingers hovering over them. 1223 01:07:22,560 --> 01:07:24,760 Speaker 1: Somebody he had to think, I'm not like a Biden. 1224 01:07:25,240 --> 01:07:27,080 Speaker 1: I'm just saying, like I feel like if I went 1225 01:07:27,120 --> 01:07:29,680 Speaker 1: into a bar and I had a beer with Biden. 1226 01:07:30,160 --> 01:07:33,040 Speaker 1: You're saying he's the least awful. He's the least awful objections, 1227 01:07:33,120 --> 01:07:35,040 Speaker 1: by far, the least awful. And I think in his 1228 01:07:35,040 --> 01:07:37,120 Speaker 1: heart of hearts he's a blue dog Democrat. He doesn't 1229 01:07:37,120 --> 01:07:39,320 Speaker 1: know where the heck he stands among these far left 1230 01:07:39,640 --> 01:07:42,800 Speaker 1: uh by the way, these crazy Democratic candidates that are 1231 01:07:42,800 --> 01:07:44,720 Speaker 1: all running, all fifty of them. He has no idea 1232 01:07:44,800 --> 01:07:46,680 Speaker 1: where he stands. He has no idea, you know. But 1233 01:07:46,760 --> 01:07:49,840 Speaker 1: I think in his political heart of hearts he's he's 1234 01:07:49,840 --> 01:07:52,360 Speaker 1: a blue dog. You know, he's a conservative. I think, 1235 01:07:52,600 --> 01:07:55,560 Speaker 1: I mean conservative as far as Democrats are concerned nowadays. 1236 01:07:56,280 --> 01:07:58,200 Speaker 1: All right, we'll take it. Joan Bay, what are the 1237 01:07:58,280 --> 01:08:01,160 Speaker 1: chances that you know, you don't decide to write Man 1238 01:08:01,200 --> 01:08:03,520 Speaker 1: of War seven and run for office instead? I mean, 1239 01:08:03,680 --> 01:08:05,960 Speaker 1: you know, Parnell twenty twenty eight, is this going to happen. 1240 01:08:06,480 --> 01:08:10,120 Speaker 1: There's no chance. There's no chance I would, you know, 1241 01:08:10,880 --> 01:08:13,720 Speaker 1: the great Andrew Bright parts that you know, politics is 1242 01:08:13,760 --> 01:08:17,599 Speaker 1: downstream from culture. You know. Part of writing these books, Buck, 1243 01:08:18,760 --> 01:08:21,280 Speaker 1: is to affect culture, right. Part part of writing these 1244 01:08:21,280 --> 01:08:24,479 Speaker 1: books is to give you know, American kids a pro 1245 01:08:24,560 --> 01:08:29,559 Speaker 1: American hero, a pro American protagonist. You know, loves America 1246 01:08:29,600 --> 01:08:33,599 Speaker 1: and his value system is such that he believes America 1247 01:08:33,640 --> 01:08:36,400 Speaker 1: is worth nying for. He believes in freedom, He's selfless, 1248 01:08:36,400 --> 01:08:38,320 Speaker 1: he believes in the sense of duty. And I feel 1249 01:08:38,320 --> 01:08:42,080 Speaker 1: like we have to give our kids fictional characters to 1250 01:08:42,160 --> 01:08:46,599 Speaker 1: aspire to in order to affect cultural change, mainstream cultural change. 1251 01:08:46,720 --> 01:08:49,040 Speaker 1: And it's extraordinarily challenging with some of the stuff that 1252 01:08:49,120 --> 01:08:51,240 Speaker 1: Hollywood is putting out right now, but we have to 1253 01:08:51,280 --> 01:08:52,840 Speaker 1: take a stab at it. We have to give our 1254 01:08:52,880 --> 01:08:55,840 Speaker 1: kids something to aspire aspire too, that is good, that 1255 01:08:55,920 --> 01:08:58,360 Speaker 1: is pro American, that is freedom loving. And that's the 1256 01:08:58,400 --> 01:09:00,720 Speaker 1: whole I mean, that's the re and why part of 1257 01:09:00,720 --> 01:09:02,559 Speaker 1: the reason why I'm writing this book. I'm with you 1258 01:09:02,600 --> 01:09:04,479 Speaker 1: on the cultural change, man.

We were told 1274 01:09:52,360 --> 01:09:55,400 Speaker 1: by the President of the United States premiums were gonna 1275 01:09:55,439 --> 01:09:58,800 Speaker 1: go down. You then got more specifics. Premiums will go 1276 01:09:58,840 --> 01:10:03,240 Speaker 1: down on average fifteen hundred dollars. He said, deductibles would decline. 1277 01:10:03,760 --> 01:10:07,200 Speaker 1: Five false statements right there. Oh, remember this one.

Your information would be secure. There. 1280 01:10:13,280 --> 01:10:18,160 Speaker 1: They told us that these co ops were wonderful, end 1281 01:10:18,240 --> 01:10:21,320 Speaker 1: all be all creations. Twenty three were created. Guess how 1282 01:10:21,320 --> 01:10:26,280 Speaker 1: many are still in existence? Four the other nineteen went bankrupt? Oh, 1283 01:10:26,360 --> 01:10:29,160 Speaker 1: the other ninth fly They told us. First they told 1284 01:10:29,240 --> 01:10:30,840 Speaker 1: us it's not attacked. Then they went to court and 1285 01:10:30,840 --> 01:10:32,400 Speaker 1: said it is attack. Now they're saying, no, it's not 1286 01:10:32,400 --> 01:10:33,880 Speaker 1: really attacked at all, because you can't at tax hi 1287 01:10:33,880 --> 01:10:35,839 Speaker 1: out because individual man dates going and there's no penalty. 1288 01:10:36,479 --> 01:10:39,360 Speaker 1: Nine different lies. We were told about Obamacare, and the 1289 01:10:39,439 --> 01:10:42,400 Speaker 1: hearing is titled how Trump's efforts? How can you undermine 1290 01:10:42,439 --> 01:10:48,160 Speaker 1: something that's already failed? And yet Obamacare still lives? My friends, 1291 01:10:48,360 --> 01:10:50,840 Speaker 1: and it's going to be healthcare in general, but Obamacare 1292 01:10:50,840 --> 01:10:55,240 Speaker 1: more specifically a central point of debate in the re 1293 01:10:55,400 --> 01:10:57,680 Speaker 1: election fight for Trump as well as just Democrats and 1294 01:10:57,720 --> 01:10:59,960 Speaker 1: Republicans battling it out.

Yeah, give give 1304 01:11:24,920 --> 01:11:27,160 Speaker 1: Ben and Shawn and the boys my best. So let's 1305 01:11:27,240 --> 01:11:30,759 Speaker 1: let's get to this. The Democrats seem to think that Okay, 1306 01:11:30,880 --> 01:11:36,040 Speaker 1: Obamacare's got problems. They've got this far left Bernie Sanders 1307 01:11:36,040 --> 01:11:39,120 Speaker 1: wing within their own party that seems to be pushing 1308 01:11:39,240 --> 01:11:42,560 Speaker 1: very openly now for single payer as the fixed to 1309 01:11:42,960 --> 01:11:47,240 Speaker 1: Obamacare or or the next step beyond Obamacare. People tell 1310 01:11:47,280 --> 01:11:49,599 Speaker 1: me it's popular, Chris, but I have a feeling you're 1311 01:11:49,600 --> 01:11:52,240 Speaker 1: gonna tell me it's not such a great idea. No, 1312 01:11:52,320 --> 01:11:54,400 Speaker 1: it's not such a great idea, Buck, And I think 1313 01:11:54,400 --> 01:11:58,559 Speaker 1: you're right. Government failed, so the solution is obviously more government. Right. 1314 01:11:59,680 --> 01:12:02,759 Speaker 1: That's that's the logic you're you're getting from the left. 1315 01:12:03,400 --> 01:12:07,200 Speaker 1: And Congressman Jordan's lead in was actually perfect on this 1316 01:12:07,520 --> 01:12:12,200 Speaker 1: because why is is single payer in theory supported by 1317 01:12:12,200 --> 01:12:16,480 Speaker 1: the public, Because it's premise on the same false premises 1318 01:12:16,520 --> 01:12:20,200 Speaker 1: that were used to sell Obamacare. Bernie Sanders says this 1319 01:12:20,280 --> 01:12:25,040 Speaker 1: is Medicare for all. In reality, his single payer bill 1320 01:12:25,200 --> 01:12:29,879 Speaker 1: abolishes Medicare. It abolishes the current Medicare program. It's Medicare 1321 01:12:29,960 --> 01:12:34,760 Speaker 1: for none. Bernie Sanders goes around saying everybody will save money. Yes, 1322 01:12:34,840 --> 01:12:36,800 Speaker 1: you'll pay a little bit more in taxes, but you'll 1323 01:12:36,840 --> 01:12:40,839 Speaker 1: save in premiums and cost sharing, etc. There's a study 1324 01:12:41,280 --> 01:12:45,160 Speaker 1: three years ago that said under Bernie Sanders plan, seventy 1325 01:12:45,160 --> 01:12:50,080 Speaker 1: one percent of people will pay more in taxes. Even 1326 01:12:50,120 --> 01:12:55,679 Speaker 1: after eliminating cost sharing. People will pay more. Now how 1327 01:12:55,800 --> 01:12:57,680 Speaker 1: much more? I mean? This is and we're speaking in 1328 01:12:57,760 --> 01:13:00,920 Speaker 1: such abstract which I know that Democrats Sanders love because 1329 01:13:00,960 --> 01:13:02,479 Speaker 1: then it's very hard to pin them down on where 1330 01:13:02,479 --> 01:13:05,080 Speaker 1: they're wrong. But my understanding is that if we want 1331 01:13:05,160 --> 01:13:10,400 Speaker 1: a Nordic style healthcare system, that we would have not 1332 01:13:10,479 --> 01:13:13,240 Speaker 1: just tax increases on the wealthy as a necessity, but 1333 01:13:13,280 --> 01:13:15,280 Speaker 1: we would have to if we were going to stay 1334 01:13:15,320 --> 01:13:19,280 Speaker 1: somewhere within the realm of our current budgetary realities, we'd 1335 01:13:19,360 --> 01:13:22,400 Speaker 1: have to have the middle class pay almost double in taxes. 1336 01:13:22,439 --> 01:13:24,680 Speaker 1: I mean, do we have some sense of if we 1337 01:13:24,760 --> 01:13:27,320 Speaker 1: did this single payer thing, if they abolish the Medicare 1338 01:13:27,320 --> 01:13:29,599 Speaker 1: system and really with it, if they abolish the private 1339 01:13:29,640 --> 01:13:32,759 Speaker 1: medical system as it stands in this country, of employer 1340 01:13:32,800 --> 01:13:36,240 Speaker 1: provided health insurance. How much more would people will be 1341 01:13:36,240 --> 01:13:39,360 Speaker 1: paying as a percentage or do we just have no idea? 1342 01:13:39,760 --> 01:13:42,040 Speaker 1: I think you're right, Buck, in terms of a good 1343 01:13:42,120 --> 01:13:44,760 Speaker 1: rule of thumb. We've seen multiple studies come out that 1344 01:13:45,160 --> 01:13:48,040 Speaker 1: have said that you would have to more than double 1345 01:13:48,720 --> 01:13:53,040 Speaker 1: current corporate and individual income tax rates. So whatever your 1346 01:13:53,080 --> 01:13:58,880 Speaker 1: listeners are paying to the irs April fifteenth, double it. Okay, 1347 01:13:59,360 --> 01:14:02,879 Speaker 1: that's that's some sense of what you would be paying 1348 01:14:03,400 --> 01:14:07,080 Speaker 1: in greater taxes under single payer. The other irony of this, 1349 01:14:07,200 --> 01:14:10,080 Speaker 1: as you point out, Bernie Sanders is the ranking member 1350 01:14:10,120 --> 01:14:14,040 Speaker 1: of the Senate Budget Committee. If he wanted to get 1351 01:14:14,080 --> 01:14:16,880 Speaker 1: the Congressional Budget Office to score his bill to say 1352 01:14:16,920 --> 01:14:20,559 Speaker 1: how much it would cost, they would prioritize his request. 1353 01:14:20,920 --> 01:14:24,000 Speaker 1: Funny that he hasn't requested an estimate of how much 1354 01:14:24,040 --> 01:14:27,320 Speaker 1: is bill would cost. Now, let's just the cost piece. 1355 01:14:27,360 --> 01:14:29,320 Speaker 1: That's the first thing. And every time Sanders and the 1356 01:14:29,360 --> 01:14:33,040 Speaker 1: Sandernistas and AOC and you know, or whoever else. I 1357 01:14:33,040 --> 01:14:36,760 Speaker 1: think a lot of the Democrat nominees right now or 1358 01:14:36,800 --> 01:14:39,680 Speaker 1: you know contenders, have said that they're in favor of 1359 01:14:39,720 --> 01:14:42,200 Speaker 1: some form of single payer. This has become a pretty 1360 01:14:43,400 --> 01:14:46,280 Speaker 1: pretty much the Democratic Party's position at least going into 1361 01:14:46,280 --> 01:14:49,800 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty election. But put aside the costs for 1362 01:14:49,840 --> 01:14:52,000 Speaker 1: a moment, because that's what always comes up. What happens 1363 01:14:52,000 --> 01:14:53,920 Speaker 1: to the healthcare system? Chris, what can you tell me 1364 01:14:54,080 --> 01:14:56,800 Speaker 1: if we go to single payer? What does that do 1365 01:14:57,000 --> 01:15:01,080 Speaker 1: to access to doctors and access to hospital and people 1366 01:15:01,080 --> 01:15:03,200 Speaker 1: wanted to go into those positions, and you know what, 1367 01:15:03,439 --> 01:15:05,080 Speaker 1: what other than the cost piece do we need to 1368 01:15:05,080 --> 01:15:08,280 Speaker 1: be aware of? Right, the quality of healthcare would would 1369 01:15:08,320 --> 01:15:14,680 Speaker 1: deteriorate significantly. You've seen this week. Um, I had a 1370 01:15:14,680 --> 01:15:17,719 Speaker 1: piece at the Federalist actually yesterday that your your listeners 1371 01:15:17,720 --> 01:15:21,719 Speaker 1: can can can pull up the idea. The premise behind 1372 01:15:21,800 --> 01:15:24,720 Speaker 1: single payer is that doctors will perform more work for 1373 01:15:24,800 --> 01:15:28,880 Speaker 1: less money. I don't know about you. I think that's 1374 01:15:28,880 --> 01:15:31,479 Speaker 1: a hard sell the most physicians. And so they're gonna 1375 01:15:31,600 --> 01:15:34,680 Speaker 1: end up performing more work because everybody's gonna want to 1376 01:15:34,680 --> 01:15:37,519 Speaker 1: go to the doctor when it's free, Right, it's free 1377 01:15:37,560 --> 01:15:39,960 Speaker 1: and you don't have to pay anything. They're gonna do 1378 01:15:40,240 --> 01:15:43,400 Speaker 1: perform more work, they're gonna have less money, and then 1379 01:15:43,439 --> 01:15:45,680 Speaker 1: they're going to have more more government red tape to 1380 01:15:45,720 --> 01:15:48,559 Speaker 1: deal with. So those doctors that are in their late 1381 01:15:48,600 --> 01:15:51,720 Speaker 1: fifties or sixties, they'll say, the heck with this, I'm 1382 01:15:51,800 --> 01:15:55,120 Speaker 1: going off fishing. I'm I'm I'm retiring to turn in 1383 01:15:55,160 --> 01:15:59,559 Speaker 1: the towel, throwing the towel. Young young people may just 1384 01:15:59,680 --> 01:16:02,240 Speaker 1: not going to medicine as a profession. So you're going 1385 01:16:02,280 --> 01:16:06,080 Speaker 1: to see very quickly a deterioration of the quality of 1386 01:16:06,120 --> 01:16:08,640 Speaker 1: care providing we're speaking of Chris Jacob's, author of the 1387 01:16:08,640 --> 01:16:12,120 Speaker 1: new book The Case Against Single Payer. Okay, Chris, Now 1388 01:16:12,200 --> 01:16:13,960 Speaker 1: the other part of this. You know, if I were 1389 01:16:13,960 --> 01:16:17,320 Speaker 1: debating some of the lefty comic types in the media world, 1390 01:16:17,320 --> 01:16:21,400 Speaker 1: they would say, oh, yeah, well, look at the United Kingdom. 1391 01:16:21,479 --> 01:16:23,960 Speaker 1: People aren't all dying in the street there and they 1392 01:16:24,000 --> 01:16:26,960 Speaker 1: get their healthcare. Look at Canada. What do you say 1393 01:16:26,960 --> 01:16:31,120 Speaker 1: to that? Actually, I would say, look at Canada and 1394 01:16:31,160 --> 01:16:34,400 Speaker 1: look at the United Kingdom. The quality of care in 1395 01:16:34,439 --> 01:16:38,559 Speaker 1: the United Kingdom is very poor. You've had year after 1396 01:16:38,720 --> 01:16:44,240 Speaker 1: year lower caps on budget payments to hospital Even the 1397 01:16:44,240 --> 01:16:46,960 Speaker 1: Congressional Budget Office, when they released a report on single 1398 01:16:47,000 --> 01:16:50,320 Speaker 1: payer earlier this year, didn't include a lot of specifics, 1399 01:16:50,360 --> 01:16:52,639 Speaker 1: but the one thing they've said is that the Britain 1400 01:16:52,680 --> 01:16:57,520 Speaker 1: has underfunded its health system and as a result, operations 1401 01:16:57,520 --> 01:17:02,680 Speaker 1: have gotten canceled a hospitals are overcrowded. Every year, it 1402 01:17:02,720 --> 01:17:06,080 Speaker 1: seems there's a winter crisis because Britain doesn't have extra 1403 01:17:06,120 --> 01:17:08,760 Speaker 1: hospital beds to deal with the flu. Now we all 1404 01:17:08,800 --> 01:17:12,000 Speaker 1: know that the flu comes every winter time. But the 1405 01:17:12,160 --> 01:17:15,280 Speaker 1: idea that Britain would have to cancel fifty thousand operations, 1406 01:17:15,280 --> 01:17:19,000 Speaker 1: which they canceled in January twenty eighteen. They had to 1407 01:17:19,040 --> 01:17:23,519 Speaker 1: cancel fifty thousand operations, postpone them for weeks or months 1408 01:17:24,200 --> 01:17:29,120 Speaker 1: because they didn't have beds to put people suffering from 1409 01:17:29,160 --> 01:17:32,400 Speaker 1: the flu. We knew that would happen every year, and 1410 01:17:32,520 --> 01:17:35,400 Speaker 1: this is what happens when you have chronic underfunding of 1411 01:17:35,439 --> 01:17:38,639 Speaker 1: health systems. Canada is the same way. Canada has over 1412 01:17:38,760 --> 01:17:43,719 Speaker 1: one million people waiting on lists an average of five 1413 01:17:43,840 --> 01:17:47,400 Speaker 1: months to start their treatment. And that's in a popular 1414 01:17:47,880 --> 01:17:50,200 Speaker 1: in a country with the population of thirty millions, you're 1415 01:17:50,200 --> 01:17:54,080 Speaker 1: talking about three percent of the population of Canada is 1416 01:17:54,120 --> 01:17:56,920 Speaker 1: on a waiting list for treatment. That's not healthcare. How 1417 01:17:56,960 --> 01:18:00,519 Speaker 1: do the Democrats get us to the point where we 1418 01:18:00,640 --> 01:18:03,920 Speaker 1: might actually jump into single payer? Would it have to 1419 01:18:03,960 --> 01:18:06,360 Speaker 1: be Did you foresee that there would have to be 1420 01:18:06,640 --> 01:18:10,960 Speaker 1: an economic recession and then maybe people would get more scared. 1421 01:18:11,000 --> 01:18:12,920 Speaker 1: I mean, what's the mechanism or do you think if 1422 01:18:12,920 --> 01:18:15,120 Speaker 1: we had a Democrat administration that came in right now 1423 01:18:15,120 --> 01:18:18,080 Speaker 1: and a Democrat controlled Congress, that would they even be 1424 01:18:18,120 --> 01:18:20,440 Speaker 1: willing to go for it if they had the legislative 1425 01:18:20,479 --> 01:18:25,040 Speaker 1: and executive ability to do it. I think they would. 1426 01:18:25,439 --> 01:18:29,439 Speaker 1: I think the other thing is it's just a matter 1427 01:18:29,479 --> 01:18:33,280 Speaker 1: of time. Buck. It's not a question from most folks 1428 01:18:33,280 --> 01:18:37,320 Speaker 1: on the left do not believe in a private marketplace, 1429 01:18:37,560 --> 01:18:40,599 Speaker 1: They do not believe in choice or competition, and say 1430 01:18:40,640 --> 01:18:45,400 Speaker 1: that's that's a policy objective that we should pursue. When 1431 01:18:45,439 --> 01:18:47,840 Speaker 1: folks like Joe Biden say I don't want to go 1432 01:18:47,880 --> 01:18:51,719 Speaker 1: to single payer, what they they're worried about is essentially, 1433 01:18:51,760 --> 01:18:53,960 Speaker 1: we can't throw all of these people off their health 1434 01:18:53,960 --> 01:18:57,400 Speaker 1: coverage in one fell swoop. That's not to say they 1435 01:18:57,479 --> 01:18:59,840 Speaker 1: don't want to throw people off of coverage over time. 1436 01:19:00,080 --> 01:19:03,800 Speaker 1: So it's really a tactical debate on the Democratic side 1437 01:19:03,840 --> 01:19:06,439 Speaker 1: in terms of how many people can we afford to 1438 01:19:06,479 --> 01:19:09,360 Speaker 1: throw off their coverage in one fell swoop, or should 1439 01:19:09,360 --> 01:19:11,160 Speaker 1: we do it over time. So what you're going to 1440 01:19:11,200 --> 01:19:13,920 Speaker 1: see is, even if they don't put in a single 1441 01:19:13,960 --> 01:19:17,799 Speaker 1: payer system right away. They would put in a government 1442 01:19:17,880 --> 01:19:21,240 Speaker 1: run plan and then they would sabotage the private marketplace 1443 01:19:22,000 --> 01:19:25,479 Speaker 1: to push everybody toward that single payer system over time. 1444 01:19:26,400 --> 01:19:29,760 Speaker 1: What can the Republicans do or anybody who believes that 1445 01:19:29,800 --> 01:19:32,320 Speaker 1: there should still be something of a free market and healthcare, 1446 01:19:32,320 --> 01:19:35,040 Speaker 1: Although obviously, with sixty percent of healthcare spending already coming 1447 01:19:35,040 --> 01:19:38,040 Speaker 1: from the government in one form or another, it's increasingly 1448 01:19:38,479 --> 01:19:40,679 Speaker 1: feeling like we don't have much of a free market 1449 01:19:40,680 --> 01:19:42,960 Speaker 1: a healthcare, but we're holding on to what we've got. Chris, 1450 01:19:43,240 --> 01:19:45,880 Speaker 1: what can the Republican Party do? What can conservatives do 1451 01:19:46,760 --> 01:19:51,880 Speaker 1: to offer an alternative that people will actually want? Sure? 1452 01:19:52,000 --> 01:19:55,120 Speaker 1: And I think that's very important as well. The last 1453 01:19:55,200 --> 01:19:59,880 Speaker 1: chapter of my book I outline important principles behind an alternative. 1454 01:20:00,200 --> 01:20:01,800 Speaker 1: I think the first thing we need to do is 1455 01:20:01,840 --> 01:20:03,960 Speaker 1: reform the insurance markets. We need to come up with 1456 01:20:04,040 --> 01:20:07,160 Speaker 1: better solutions for folks with pre existing conditions because the 1457 01:20:07,200 --> 01:20:10,240 Speaker 1: status quo is pricing people out of the millions of 1458 01:20:10,280 --> 01:20:12,600 Speaker 1: people out of the marketplace. I think we need to 1459 01:20:12,600 --> 01:20:16,280 Speaker 1: come up with a more sustainable safety net. You've seen 1460 01:20:16,360 --> 01:20:18,519 Speaker 1: the tens of millions of people who are signing up 1461 01:20:18,560 --> 01:20:21,800 Speaker 1: for Medicaid expansion, and in many cases they're dropping their 1462 01:20:21,840 --> 01:20:24,559 Speaker 1: private coverage to go on the government dime. We have 1463 01:20:24,720 --> 01:20:27,840 Speaker 1: to reform the safety net and make it's sustainable for 1464 01:20:27,840 --> 01:20:30,720 Speaker 1: the long term. And then the third thing is just 1465 01:20:30,920 --> 01:20:37,479 Speaker 1: reforming incentives.

I'm trying 1545 01:24:41,520 --> 01:24:44,799 Speaker 1: to find where it is. It's saying, oh, yeah, that 1546 01:24:44,800 --> 01:24:48,000 Speaker 1: that comedy movies. Did you see this comedy movies are disappearing, 1547 01:24:49,160 --> 01:24:51,600 Speaker 1: that there's no more because I've been saying on the 1548 01:24:51,640 --> 01:24:54,960 Speaker 1: show for a while that comedy is dead. And here's 1549 01:24:54,960 --> 01:24:57,639 Speaker 1: this story. There are those who worry about all blah 1550 01:24:57,640 --> 01:25:00,880 Speaker 1: blah blah. In December, I saw he's talking about all 1551 01:25:00,920 --> 01:25:02,880 Speaker 1: these different movies. You see he says there there there's 1552 01:25:03,600 --> 01:25:09,519 Speaker 1: terrible comedies accounted for appalling and appalling eight percent of 1553 01:25:09,560 --> 01:25:13,120 Speaker 1: box office revenue. There are no funny movies being made anymore, dude, 1554 01:25:13,680 --> 01:25:15,840 Speaker 1: that's the that's the statistic I was trying to find there. 1555 01:25:15,840 --> 01:25:17,479 Speaker 1: I'm sorry about the stumball. I'm like there was a 1556 01:25:17,640 --> 01:25:19,599 Speaker 1: play I was trying to read as I was eight 1557 01:25:19,640 --> 01:25:22,040 Speaker 1: percent of box That means they're not making comedies. You 1558 01:25:22,040 --> 01:25:24,439 Speaker 1: know why because people don't want to be funny anymore. 1559 01:25:24,439 --> 01:25:28,879 Speaker 1: They want to be woke. Yeah, I have why because 1560 01:25:29,240 --> 01:25:31,479 Speaker 1: people who write comedy movies in Hollywood are liberals, and 1561 01:25:31,520 --> 01:25:33,559 Speaker 1: liberals having this sense of humor. So when you're having 1562 01:25:33,560 --> 01:25:35,519 Speaker 1: this sense of humor, you really can't write something that's funny. 1563 01:25:35,520 --> 01:25:37,200 Speaker 1: I tell people this all the time, and they're like, 1564 01:25:37,240 --> 01:25:39,160 Speaker 1: come on, that's just because you like you know, you 1565 01:25:39,160 --> 01:25:42,559 Speaker 1: share the idea. The funniest people I know, all of 1566 01:25:42,600 --> 01:25:46,400 Speaker 1: them are some form of right of center. They're not 1567 01:25:46,439 --> 01:25:48,719 Speaker 1: necessarily Some of the funniest people I know aren't Trump 1568 01:25:48,720 --> 01:25:53,040 Speaker 1: people at all, but they're still kind of conservative contrarian types, 1569 01:25:53,120 --> 01:25:54,240 Speaker 1: you know, some of them are. It's not it's not 1570 01:25:54,280 --> 01:25:56,360 Speaker 1: a Trump thing, although I know some very funny people 1571 01:25:56,520 --> 01:26:00,400 Speaker 1: like Trump. But it's just you've become part of the 1572 01:26:00,400 --> 01:26:03,439 Speaker 1: counterculture now. You've you know, if you're if you're somebody 1573 01:26:03,439 --> 01:26:06,559 Speaker 1: who's in the left, on the left, you you have 1574 01:26:06,680 --> 01:26:09,439 Speaker 1: such you have a straight jacket on all the time 1575 01:26:09,479 --> 01:26:10,960 Speaker 1: about what you're allowed to say, what you allowed to 1576 01:26:10,960 --> 01:26:13,040 Speaker 1: make fun of so and you know that that political 1577 01:26:13,040 --> 01:26:15,160 Speaker 1: cress is completely absurd, and they're not afraid to cross 1578 01:26:15,200 --> 01:26:18,760 Speaker 1: the line. Yeah, that's right exactly. We're used to saying 1579 01:26:18,760 --> 01:26:21,120 Speaker 1: things that are gonna get us in trouble. That's why, 1580 01:26:21,880 --> 01:26:23,640 Speaker 1: you know, The really funny show would be if we 1581 01:26:23,640 --> 01:26:26,160 Speaker 1: could just establish the like if we could establish a 1582 01:26:26,160 --> 01:26:28,600 Speaker 1: show called safe space, but it was a play on 1583 01:26:28,760 --> 01:26:31,240 Speaker 1: words where it's like, okay, guys, this is the conservative 1584 01:26:31,479 --> 01:26:34,080 Speaker 1: safe space. I can make any jokes that I want 1585 01:26:34,600 --> 01:26:36,519 Speaker 1: and I can't get in trouble for it because it's 1586 01:26:36,560 --> 01:26:38,720 Speaker 1: the safe space. I like it. This would be an 1587 01:26:38,760 --> 01:26:41,200 Speaker 1: amazing show, by the way, would because the funniest stuff 1588 01:26:41,200 --> 01:26:43,200 Speaker 1: that I say, unfortunately, is all stuff that I say 1589 01:26:43,200 --> 01:26:45,120 Speaker 1: off air that I could never repeat to anybody or 1590 01:26:45,120 --> 01:26:47,960 Speaker 1: else I'd get in trouble. So that's the funniest stuff. 1591 01:26:48,040 --> 01:26:50,080 Speaker 1: If we could actually just create a show where you 1592 01:26:50,120 --> 01:26:52,080 Speaker 1: could do that and call it safe space, which would 1593 01:26:52,120 --> 01:26:53,720 Speaker 1: be great.

I'm now working toward a graduate degree in engineering, 1640 01:29:40,400 --> 01:29:43,360 Speaker 1: but I was once an IVY heroin addict and even 1641 01:29:43,439 --> 01:29:46,960 Speaker 1: spent time locked up. My story is great. Anyway, my 1642 01:29:47,000 --> 01:29:50,160 Speaker 1: experiences have caused me to have what some would say 1643 01:29:50,240 --> 01:29:54,559 Speaker 1: are extreme views on the criminal justice system. If it 1644 01:29:54,600 --> 01:29:56,960 Speaker 1: were up to me, the inmate population will be reduced 1645 01:29:56,960 --> 01:30:00,200 Speaker 1: by a large number and many laws would change. How However, 1646 01:30:00,280 --> 01:30:02,599 Speaker 1: even I can see that would biden Buddha judge are 1647 01:30:02,640 --> 01:30:06,160 Speaker 1: saying is crazy. They make me seem like a moderate 1648 01:30:06,160 --> 01:30:09,200 Speaker 1: on the subject now more than ever. Shields High, Well, 1649 01:30:09,240 --> 01:30:12,200 Speaker 1: Michael's thank you first of all for sharing your your 1650 01:30:12,240 --> 01:30:16,040 Speaker 1: personal and inspiring story, and good for you for you know, 1651 01:30:16,080 --> 01:30:20,320 Speaker 1: people love redemption for a whole bunch of reasons, not 1652 01:30:20,360 --> 01:30:23,479 Speaker 1: even just in the whole Christian everlasting life way, but 1653 01:30:23,560 --> 01:30:27,960 Speaker 1: that's obviously very important, but in the general comeback story 1654 01:30:28,040 --> 01:30:30,320 Speaker 1: sense too. I mean, we all we all know that 1655 01:30:30,320 --> 01:30:34,160 Speaker 1: we are flawed, we fail, we stumble, and so anyone 1656 01:30:34,320 --> 01:30:38,000 Speaker 1: who dust themselves off and gets back up there and 1657 01:30:38,040 --> 01:30:40,439 Speaker 1: gets back into the fight with their shields high is 1658 01:30:40,479 --> 01:30:42,840 Speaker 1: somebody that is that should be should be praised for 1659 01:30:42,920 --> 01:30:45,840 Speaker 1: that for that act, and should be encouraged and others 1660 01:30:45,880 --> 01:30:49,880 Speaker 1: should be encouraged to do the same. As for your 1661 01:30:49,960 --> 01:30:55,559 Speaker 1: point on criminal justice reform and letting out, Well, you 1662 01:30:55,600 --> 01:30:58,320 Speaker 1: said half of the people in prison I used to 1663 01:30:58,320 --> 01:31:00,599 Speaker 1: do and there was a much greater in in this, 1664 01:31:01,479 --> 01:31:05,320 Speaker 1: I must say, in the Tea Party years. For whatever reason, 1665 01:31:05,360 --> 01:31:08,400 Speaker 1: people seem to have ceased to care, or at least 1666 01:31:08,400 --> 01:31:10,680 Speaker 1: there's not as much medium. Maybe people care as much, 1667 01:31:10,680 --> 01:31:13,599 Speaker 1: but there's not as much media attention as there used 1668 01:31:13,640 --> 01:31:18,520 Speaker 1: to be on this. On the issue of over criminalization, 1669 01:31:18,880 --> 01:31:21,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's a very fair question to ask, 1670 01:31:21,760 --> 01:31:26,120 Speaker 1: should people who have only committed a crime that is 1671 01:31:26,120 --> 01:31:30,080 Speaker 1: an administrative offense against the government, right so the only 1672 01:31:30,360 --> 01:31:33,400 Speaker 1: victim in a sense is the government and their first 1673 01:31:33,439 --> 01:31:38,880 Speaker 1: time offender, should they face prison time? Now I'm speaking 1674 01:31:38,960 --> 01:31:41,479 Speaker 1: very broad terms. I know that we'd have to drill 1675 01:31:41,520 --> 01:31:44,960 Speaker 1: down into some of this, but there have been people 1676 01:31:45,000 --> 01:31:47,120 Speaker 1: who have done studies of our criminal justices and what 1677 01:31:47,160 --> 01:31:51,080 Speaker 1: they find is that there are so many criminal statutes 1678 01:31:51,840 --> 01:31:54,400 Speaker 1: on the books right now. They're in fact so many 1679 01:31:54,479 --> 01:31:58,280 Speaker 1: criminal statutes that no one even knows how many there 1680 01:31:58,360 --> 01:32:03,840 Speaker 1: are because it depends on interpretation. It depends on how 1681 01:32:03,920 --> 01:32:07,519 Speaker 1: some of the different administrative agencies will use regulative will 1682 01:32:07,560 --> 01:32:11,040 Speaker 1: interpret regulatory law that can have criminal penalty. So the 1683 01:32:11,080 --> 01:32:13,360 Speaker 1: answer to how many criminal laws are there in America 1684 01:32:13,479 --> 01:32:17,880 Speaker 1: is nobody knows, and that's not an acceptable answer. There 1685 01:32:17,960 --> 01:32:23,439 Speaker 1: are too many people, too many people out there who 1686 01:32:23,479 --> 01:32:28,200 Speaker 1: I think are in prison for things that honestly they 1687 01:32:28,200 --> 01:32:30,400 Speaker 1: shouldn't be in prison for at all. That that and 1688 01:32:30,960 --> 01:32:32,800 Speaker 1: for me, one person who's in prison who shouldn't be 1689 01:32:32,800 --> 01:32:36,680 Speaker 1: in prisons. Too many the more complicated. So these are 1690 01:32:36,680 --> 01:32:40,200 Speaker 1: things like people that are that wander onto an Indian 1691 01:32:40,240 --> 01:32:45,040 Speaker 1: reservation and try to get looking for arrowheads, not realizing 1692 01:32:45,080 --> 01:32:46,679 Speaker 1: where they are, and now all of a suddeny're facing 1693 01:32:46,680 --> 01:32:48,759 Speaker 1: two years in federal prison. That was a well known case. 1694 01:32:49,640 --> 01:32:51,559 Speaker 1: Or there was snowmobiling, I think, and they went on 1695 01:32:51,720 --> 01:32:54,639 Speaker 1: native land by accident. I mean, things like things like that, 1696 01:32:55,200 --> 01:32:58,920 Speaker 1: or you know, a Native American reservation, pardon me, things 1697 01:32:59,000 --> 01:33:03,280 Speaker 1: like that can sometimes and send people to prison, so 1698 01:33:03,800 --> 01:33:07,280 Speaker 1: that's not good. Or I believe in one case, somebody 1699 01:33:07,360 --> 01:33:11,320 Speaker 1: was packing they were in the Gulf of Mexico, a 1700 01:33:11,439 --> 01:33:16,360 Speaker 1: US fisherman and they packed fish in plastic instead of 1701 01:33:16,400 --> 01:33:19,000 Speaker 1: paper or something like that. I mean, it's so absurd 1702 01:33:19,040 --> 01:33:21,800 Speaker 1: that you honestly you wouldn't believe it if you read it. 1703 01:33:22,120 --> 01:33:24,000 Speaker 1: And now they didn't end up going to prison, but 1704 01:33:24,040 --> 01:33:27,840 Speaker 1: they faced criminal penalties with prison time that could have 1705 01:33:27,880 --> 01:33:30,679 Speaker 1: been attached to it, So that's too much. The question 1706 01:33:30,760 --> 01:33:35,240 Speaker 1: gets much more complicated on drugs because there are there 1707 01:33:35,240 --> 01:33:38,120 Speaker 1: are two big parts of the drug debate that I 1708 01:33:38,160 --> 01:33:42,880 Speaker 1: think that there's not nearly enough of a focus on. Okay, 1709 01:33:43,640 --> 01:33:45,200 Speaker 1: there's a there's a big two big parts of it. 1710 01:33:45,560 --> 01:33:49,120 Speaker 1: One I mean in terms of incarceration for people who 1711 01:33:49,400 --> 01:33:53,080 Speaker 1: are involved in the illegal drug trade. One is that 1712 01:33:53,680 --> 01:33:58,759 Speaker 1: usually if you have a very long drug sentence attached 1713 01:33:58,800 --> 01:34:02,920 Speaker 1: to somebody, they're not a first it's usually not always, 1714 01:34:02,960 --> 01:34:05,600 Speaker 1: but usually not a first time offender. And also sometimes 1715 01:34:05,640 --> 01:34:09,559 Speaker 1: the possession penalty is just the easiest and most readily 1716 01:34:09,640 --> 01:34:12,960 Speaker 1: provable felony, so that's what they give them, even though 1717 01:34:12,960 --> 01:34:15,200 Speaker 1: they may have been part of a distribution network of 1718 01:34:15,240 --> 01:34:17,559 Speaker 1: a drug gang that, let's say, is responsible for a 1719 01:34:17,560 --> 01:34:20,280 Speaker 1: whole lot of a whole lot of homicides, murders, bad things. 1720 01:34:21,000 --> 01:34:23,360 Speaker 1: So sometimes, you know, so they could have gotten them 1721 01:34:23,360 --> 01:34:25,000 Speaker 1: with a racketeering charge. Maybe they could have even got 1722 01:34:25,040 --> 01:34:27,200 Speaker 1: them with an attempted murder charge. But if they've got 1723 01:34:27,320 --> 01:34:29,280 Speaker 1: enough weight on you, as they say, if they find 1724 01:34:29,280 --> 01:34:32,320 Speaker 1: even enough drugs, they just charge the drugs because they 1725 01:34:32,360 --> 01:34:34,040 Speaker 1: know that they'll be able to prove that and you're 1726 01:34:34,040 --> 01:34:36,439 Speaker 1: going to take a plea deal. So that's one part 1727 01:34:36,479 --> 01:34:39,960 Speaker 1: of it, is that so non violent drug offenders, just 1728 01:34:40,040 --> 01:34:43,240 Speaker 1: because the offense that they went away for is what's listed, 1729 01:34:43,280 --> 01:34:44,840 Speaker 1: it doesn't mean that that's actually the only thing the 1730 01:34:44,880 --> 01:34:49,280 Speaker 1: person did. And then the other part of this is, folks, 1731 01:34:49,280 --> 01:34:52,120 Speaker 1: we've got an opioid epidemic that's killing seventy thousand Americans 1732 01:34:52,120 --> 01:34:55,400 Speaker 1: a year. When you're selling illegal drugs to somebody, especially 1733 01:34:55,439 --> 01:34:57,280 Speaker 1: drugs that are as powerful as opioids, and I do 1734 01:34:57,320 --> 01:34:59,360 Speaker 1: think that there's a difference, right, There's just like there's 1735 01:34:59,360 --> 01:35:01,920 Speaker 1: a difference between selling somebody a beer illegally and selling 1736 01:35:01,920 --> 01:35:05,240 Speaker 1: them you know, an eight ball of coke? Um? Isn't 1737 01:35:05,280 --> 01:35:06,920 Speaker 1: that what they call it? An eight ball? I don't know. 1738 01:35:07,040 --> 01:35:08,920 Speaker 1: I'm not really good on these things. So yeah, that's 1739 01:35:08,920 --> 01:35:11,000 Speaker 1: what I was trying to do. A little street lingo there, 1740 01:35:11,520 --> 01:35:15,680 Speaker 1: you know, some some yeo, some some snow. Now you're 1741 01:35:15,720 --> 01:35:18,200 Speaker 1: over my head? Some china white? Is that? Is that what? 1742 01:35:18,240 --> 01:35:20,080 Speaker 1: I think? That's from breaking bed? Isn't that what they 1743 01:35:20,120 --> 01:35:22,160 Speaker 1: call a breaking bead? Or? Is it is that heroin? Though? No, 1744 01:35:22,240 --> 01:35:24,280 Speaker 1: that's heroin, right, don't, yes, but I think China white 1745 01:35:24,280 --> 01:35:25,760 Speaker 1: was one of the terms. Yeah, that's a thing, that's 1746 01:35:25,760 --> 01:35:29,599 Speaker 1: a thank you. I remember from the some MOLLI that's 1747 01:35:29,640 --> 01:35:32,639 Speaker 1: that's ecstasy. That's different. Yes, yeah, I know, I see, 1748 01:35:32,640 --> 01:35:34,639 Speaker 1: I'm up on some of the street lingo. But anyway, 1749 01:35:34,960 --> 01:35:38,519 Speaker 1: back to the seriousness of this conversation. Um, we have 1750 01:35:38,600 --> 01:35:43,040 Speaker 1: a very real epidemic in this country, and people who 1751 01:35:43,080 --> 01:35:46,840 Speaker 1: are contributing to that epidemic and and are involved in 1752 01:35:46,880 --> 01:35:51,320 Speaker 1: the sale of illegal drugs that can kill people. I 1753 01:35:51,680 --> 01:35:54,400 Speaker 1: don't know, I don't know how much we consider that 1754 01:35:54,439 --> 01:35:58,439 Speaker 1: to be. It's certainly not a victimless crime. They've started 1755 01:35:58,479 --> 01:36:01,320 Speaker 1: to charge people, including those who weren't even involved really 1756 01:36:01,320 --> 01:36:05,880 Speaker 1: in commercial, large scale commercial sale of drugs. If someone 1757 01:36:05,920 --> 01:36:08,360 Speaker 1: overdoses and you sold them the drugs they overdosed on, 1758 01:36:08,520 --> 01:36:12,240 Speaker 1: They've charged people with murder for that. They've even I 1759 01:36:12,280 --> 01:36:17,320 Speaker 1: think brought charges again certain doctors for overprescribing drugs. So 1760 01:36:17,600 --> 01:36:19,360 Speaker 1: that's where it gets more complicated too. I think if 1761 01:36:19,400 --> 01:36:22,640 Speaker 1: you're selling marijuana illegally, especially considering some states now have 1762 01:36:22,760 --> 01:36:25,519 Speaker 1: legal I mean, yeah, it is not possible to die 1763 01:36:25,560 --> 01:36:28,000 Speaker 1: from marijuana. Believe it or not. It is a fat soluble. 1764 01:36:28,040 --> 01:36:31,599 Speaker 1: THHC is a fat soluble drug and no one has 1765 01:36:31,640 --> 01:36:34,559 Speaker 1: ever It's not possible to smoke enough of it to 1766 01:36:34,720 --> 01:36:36,840 Speaker 1: die from it. And this is not just something that 1767 01:36:36,840 --> 01:36:39,000 Speaker 1: a bunch of hippies and Vermont told me. This is 1768 01:36:39,080 --> 01:36:42,240 Speaker 1: science that is not true if some of these other drugs. 1769 01:36:42,280 --> 01:36:46,960 Speaker 1: So I think that you can work into this a 1770 01:36:47,680 --> 01:36:50,240 Speaker 1: schedule that deals with they have, you know, Schedule one, 1771 01:36:50,240 --> 01:36:52,960 Speaker 1: Schedule two, that they should redo the drug schedule and 1772 01:36:53,000 --> 01:36:55,080 Speaker 1: look at it in terms of seriousness of the substance 1773 01:36:55,080 --> 01:36:59,040 Speaker 1: that's being sold and the amount of it. Sorry, I 1774 01:36:59,479 --> 01:37:02,519 Speaker 1: got a little deep into the criminal justice debate there 1775 01:37:02,560 --> 01:37:04,680 Speaker 1: for a second, but I think it's very important and 1776 01:37:05,240 --> 01:37:09,280 Speaker 1: it's one that Republicans can make some headway on going 1777 01:37:09,280 --> 01:37:12,599 Speaker 1: into the into the reelection. I'm hoping they ken because 1778 01:37:12,600 --> 01:37:16,320 Speaker 1: Trump has done good stuff on this. We'll have a 1779 01:37:16,320 --> 01:37:19,599 Speaker 1: moment to catch our breath. We got more amazing role 1780 01:37:19,600 --> 01:37:22,080 Speaker 1: Call your fantastic thoughts when we come back, you know, Team, 1781 01:37:22,120 --> 01:37:25,400 Speaker 1: I missed some of the some of the original Saturday 1782 01:37:25,439 --> 01:37:27,880 Speaker 1: Squad these days. I was thinking about it because I 1783 01:37:27,960 --> 01:37:30,160 Speaker 1: used to do the show for the Blaze on Saturday, 1784 01:37:30,479 --> 01:37:32,840 Speaker 1: and that was amazing because I it was the whole 1785 01:37:32,880 --> 01:37:34,560 Speaker 1: week I was just all pent up with wanting to 1786 01:37:34,600 --> 01:37:36,719 Speaker 1: do radio. And then Saturday it was like three hours 1787 01:37:36,720 --> 01:37:41,000 Speaker 1: of just unleashed Buck on the radio, and we talked 1788 01:37:41,000 --> 01:37:43,960 Speaker 1: about all kinds of stuff, history and philosophy, and a 1789 01:37:44,000 --> 01:37:45,719 Speaker 1: lot of it was very in depth and less news 1790 01:37:45,720 --> 01:37:49,840 Speaker 1: cycle based. But we had all these great callers. And 1791 01:37:49,840 --> 01:37:52,640 Speaker 1: I remember we used to have this lady named Irma, 1792 01:37:52,720 --> 01:37:55,080 Speaker 1: who I think told me she was I think she 1793 01:37:55,160 --> 01:37:58,519 Speaker 1: said she was eighty either eighty five or eighty eight, 1794 01:37:58,520 --> 01:38:00,720 Speaker 1: I can't remember. And Irma I used to call in 1795 01:38:00,760 --> 01:38:03,640 Speaker 1: and she h, you know, her family had fled the 1796 01:38:03,680 --> 01:38:06,400 Speaker 1: Holocaust in World War Two, and she would get on 1797 01:38:06,439 --> 01:38:10,080 Speaker 1: these rants about fascism and it was incredible, and I'm 1798 01:38:10,120 --> 01:38:11,960 Speaker 1: just I'm just wondering. I hope Irma's okay and she's 1799 01:38:12,000 --> 01:38:13,760 Speaker 1: if she's out there listening. I just want to send 1800 01:38:13,760 --> 01:38:16,400 Speaker 1: you a big team buck hug, and there are many 1801 01:38:16,400 --> 01:38:18,120 Speaker 1: others out there as well.

I'd like to hear what's 1804 01:38:21,600 --> 01:38:22,800 Speaker 1: going on. You don't have to call in if you 1805 01:38:22,840 --> 01:38:24,360 Speaker 1: don't want to, because we don't do calls as much, 1806 01:38:24,400 --> 01:38:27,160 Speaker 1: but send me and send me an email, send me 1807 01:38:27,439 --> 01:38:30,960 Speaker 1: a Facebook message, and let me know how things are going. 1808 01:38:31,400 --> 01:38:33,280 Speaker 1: So I was just thinking. I was thinking about Irma. 1809 01:38:33,400 --> 01:38:35,759 Speaker 1: Some of you who are original Saturday Squad will remember 1810 01:38:35,800 --> 01:38:39,679 Speaker 1: she was a fantastic, fantastic lady with a lot of wisdom. 1811 01:38:40,360 --> 01:38:43,240 Speaker 1: Um also Laurie from New Jersey, and I'm Laurie from 1812 01:38:43,280 --> 01:38:45,400 Speaker 1: New Jersey.

And what 1814 01:38:47,439 --> 01:38:49,880 Speaker 1: happened to Laurie from New Jersey? Missing some of the 1815 01:38:49,920 --> 01:38:52,880 Speaker 1: old squad? You know these people who are your real 1816 01:38:53,240 --> 01:38:57,040 Speaker 1: uh you know og as they said, original original Squad 1817 01:38:57,400 --> 01:39:00,920 Speaker 1: oss listeners. They they're they're your friends, and so you 1818 01:39:01,080 --> 01:39:02,640 Speaker 1: wonder how they're doing. So I'm wondering how some of 1819 01:39:02,640 --> 01:39:07,560 Speaker 1: my original Saturday friends are doing out there. Stoats Unofficial 1820 01:39:07,640 --> 01:39:12,479 Speaker 1: Team Buck Wrangler of all Things Stoats. All right, we 1821 01:39:12,600 --> 01:39:16,040 Speaker 1: got tim up here. I've been following you since the 1822 01:39:16,080 --> 01:39:18,760 Speaker 1: Real News days and I'm a regular podcast listener. I 1823 01:39:18,800 --> 01:39:20,800 Speaker 1: hate to be that guy, but the audio levels and 1824 01:39:20,840 --> 01:39:24,080 Speaker 1: the podcast are out of control. The levels on your 1825 01:39:24,320 --> 01:39:27,280 Speaker 1: Buck's remote feed are almost always extremely low, with everything 1826 01:39:27,320 --> 01:39:30,000 Speaker 1: from the studio at a good level. This may not 1827 01:39:30,040 --> 01:39:32,879 Speaker 1: be noticed on traditional broadcast stations because they have processing 1828 01:39:32,880 --> 01:39:35,400 Speaker 1: to compensate, but it's very bad on the podcast. You 1829 01:39:35,479 --> 01:39:37,679 Speaker 1: need some processing either than bucks feed or the whole 1830 01:39:37,720 --> 01:39:40,200 Speaker 1: feed to go to the podcast recorder. I'm a broadcast 1831 01:39:40,240 --> 01:39:43,800 Speaker 1: engineer willing to offer advice. Shields high, Tim, Well, thank 1832 01:39:43,840 --> 01:39:46,120 Speaker 1: you Tim.

I'm among many who believe that Rapino, Omar 1846 01:40:35,520 --> 01:40:38,000 Speaker 1: and all those who believe America is such a bad 1847 01:40:38,040 --> 01:40:40,880 Speaker 1: play should pack up and find somewhere that's a little 1848 01:40:40,920 --> 01:40:43,920 Speaker 1: bit more to their liking. But I guarantee one thing, 1849 01:40:44,360 --> 01:40:50,879 Speaker 1: America will forget them long before they forget America. Well, Dwayne, 1850 01:40:51,640 --> 01:40:54,519 Speaker 1: I don't think they're going anywhere, but I understand, I 1851 01:40:54,840 --> 01:40:57,479 Speaker 1: understand where your head's at.

We don't get you here to seven pm. 1854 01:41:07,640 --> 01:41:10,160 Speaker 1: At ten pm. You still seem to always be on 1855 01:41:10,160 --> 01:41:12,599 Speaker 1: top of the news though. Thank you for all your service. Well, Irene, 1856 01:41:12,600 --> 01:41:14,840 Speaker 1: thank you so much for listening in some of our 1857 01:41:15,280 --> 01:41:18,439 Speaker 1: wonderful affiliate markets because they have some local programming or 1858 01:41:18,479 --> 01:41:21,559 Speaker 1: there's we can be a little bit delayed, but we 1859 01:41:21,600 --> 01:41:23,559 Speaker 1: are doing this show. I mean, when you were hearing 1860 01:41:23,600 --> 01:41:27,240 Speaker 1: me at six o'clock every night, I'm at six o'clock Eastern. 1861 01:41:27,280 --> 01:41:29,000 Speaker 1: Rather those of you that hear me at six eastern, 1862 01:41:29,360 --> 01:41:32,080 Speaker 1: or you can listen on the stream on iHeart Radio 1863 01:41:32,080 --> 01:41:34,400 Speaker 1: on the app at six eastern. When you hear me 1864 01:41:34,439 --> 01:41:38,120 Speaker 1: on that, that is live. But in some markets it's delayed, 1865 01:41:38,640 --> 01:41:41,320 Speaker 1: and then sometimes there's also some catchup or we'll do 1866 01:41:41,360 --> 01:41:44,840 Speaker 1: an interview, because for me, getting some people on the 1867 01:41:44,840 --> 01:41:46,360 Speaker 1: show is the most important thing. So we'll do an 1868 01:41:46,400 --> 01:41:50,599 Speaker 1: interview earlier in the day and we will then air 1869 01:41:50,640 --> 01:41:53,120 Speaker 1: it later on. All right, we got another one here, 1870 01:41:53,200 --> 01:41:57,559 Speaker 1: we got we got a live one. Kristen rights, Well, 1871 01:41:57,560 --> 01:42:00,559 Speaker 1: that is true that many women care about height. I've 1872 01:42:00,600 --> 01:42:04,439 Speaker 1: seen very short men with very attractive women. It's all 1873 01:42:04,439 --> 01:42:09,639 Speaker 1: about confidence and women are attracted to that. Well, Kristen Darnett, 1874 01:42:09,840 --> 01:42:12,920 Speaker 1: I agree, because I always date up. I don't mean 1875 01:42:13,000 --> 01:42:14,680 Speaker 1: up is in like I have to scurry up the 1876 01:42:14,680 --> 01:42:17,080 Speaker 1: tree because I'm shorter than the lady. I mean date 1877 01:42:17,160 --> 01:42:19,080 Speaker 1: up is in. I feel like I date, you know, 1878 01:42:19,120 --> 01:42:23,040 Speaker 1: beyond my station in life, at least physically. And it's 1879 01:42:23,080 --> 01:42:26,880 Speaker 1: because one thing I do not lack is a tremendous 1880 01:42:26,880 --> 01:42:30,400 Speaker 1: a tremendous confidence infused with a perfection of humility. I 1881 01:42:30,479 --> 01:42:32,599 Speaker 1: might add, because that's the thing that you can do, 1882 01:42:33,120 --> 01:42:35,040 Speaker 1: But no, you're right about confidence though, in all seriousness, 1883 01:42:35,040 --> 01:42:37,400 Speaker 1: it is a very important thing. It's very appealing and 1884 01:42:37,560 --> 01:42:41,439 Speaker 1: it's very much what I think a lot of when 1885 01:42:41,479 --> 01:42:44,840 Speaker 1: people discuss the masculine virtues, which I know the feminists 1886 01:42:44,880 --> 01:42:47,479 Speaker 1: and the left now pretend aren't really a thing. Masculine 1887 01:42:47,520 --> 01:42:52,120 Speaker 1: virtues are a thing, things like honor, integrity, courage. When 1888 01:42:52,160 --> 01:42:54,160 Speaker 1: when people talk about an alpha, I don't think that 1889 01:42:54,200 --> 01:42:57,920 Speaker 1: being an alpha means that you have washboard abs and 1890 01:42:58,160 --> 01:42:59,800 Speaker 1: you know, have made sure that you have no body 1891 01:42:59,800 --> 01:43:01,840 Speaker 1: hair on your chest so all your muscles can show, 1892 01:43:02,080 --> 01:43:03,960 Speaker 1: and you go around saying, you know, who wants the fight? 1893 01:43:04,360 --> 01:43:06,800 Speaker 1: Do you even lift? Bro? You know, that's that's not 1894 01:43:06,840 --> 01:43:08,519 Speaker 1: what I think the masculine virtues are, at least not 1895 01:43:08,560 --> 01:43:13,400 Speaker 1: the ones we should pursue in society. But honor, decency, integrity, 1896 01:43:14,600 --> 01:43:18,839 Speaker 1: life competence, and with life competence comes a great degree 1897 01:43:18,960 --> 01:43:22,519 Speaker 1: of confidence in general, right, Mike, If you want to 1898 01:43:22,520 --> 01:43:25,200 Speaker 1: be a guy who's good at life, yeah, man, yeah, 1899 01:43:25,200 --> 01:43:26,880 Speaker 1: you gotta win it life. You gotta win it life. 1900 01:43:27,000 --> 01:43:28,760 Speaker 1: That doesn't just that's not That's not the same thing 1901 01:43:28,800 --> 01:43:31,280 Speaker 1: as saying some us to be financially successful or whatever, 1902 01:43:31,360 --> 01:43:32,559 Speaker 1: or I mean to make a lot of money or anything. 1903 01:43:32,600 --> 01:43:35,880 Speaker 1: No, no no, no. Life competence is good at dealing with 1904 01:43:35,920 --> 01:43:39,799 Speaker 1: the challenges of life and treating people well and doing 1905 01:43:39,880 --> 01:43:44,920 Speaker 1: so and conducting oneself honorably. That's life competence. So yeah, basically, 1906 01:43:45,040 --> 01:43:47,040 Speaker 1: if you're on an amtrak train, all the lights go 1907 01:43:47,080 --> 01:43:52,439 Speaker 1: out and some you know terrorists storm that. You know 1908 01:43:52,479 --> 01:43:54,080 Speaker 1: you want bucks X in there. That's all I gotta 1909 01:43:54,120 --> 01:43:57,400 Speaker 1: tell you. And he's gonna be in Sean Parnell's novel WHOA. 1910 01:43:57,520 --> 01:44:00,360 Speaker 1: All Right, everybody, have a fantastic weekend.
