1
00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:16,680
Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom hunt. Trump's deep state enemies

2
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:19,320
Speaker 1: are running for cover as he calls them out over

3
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:24,000
Speaker 1: the weekend and says, it's time for answers. Why were

4
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:27,160
Speaker 1: they spying on the Trump campaign? How were they spying

5
00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:30,280
Speaker 1: on the Trump campaign? Department of Justice seems to think

6
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,199
Speaker 1: that it is independent of the rest of government. That

7
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,520
Speaker 1: is false. Will discuss what it all means. Plus, Starbucks

8
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:39,279
Speaker 1: now has a new bathroom policy that I don't think

9
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:42,400
Speaker 1: it's gonna work out very well for the huge company.

10
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:46,199
Speaker 1: And we're going to talk about what is going on

11
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:50,559
Speaker 1: with China and trade and a whole bunch of other issues.

12
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 1: Much more coming up. This is the Buck Sexton Show,

13
00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:58,600
Speaker 1: where the mission or mission is to decode what really

14
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 1: matters with action intelligence. Make no mistakes, you're a great

15
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 1: American Again the Buck Sexton Show begins. No, indeed, welcome

16
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:20,400
Speaker 1: to the Buck Sexton Show. Everybody live from the swamp Washington,

17
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 1: d c our Nation's capital. Actually starting to get acclimated

18
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 1: down here. I mean it's still swampy, don't get me wrong,

19
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,920
Speaker 1: but at least it's not something of a monsoon, which

20
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: is what it was for for days and days last week.

21
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:39,039
Speaker 1: I I'm reaching a point now where I'm wondering some

22
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,919
Speaker 1: of the next moves that the deep state, anti Trump

23
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,759
Speaker 1: left has in store for us. I can see them

24
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 1: coming a mile away, and I've been trying to prepare

25
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 1: you for a while with don't think that just because

26
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 1: we get to the truth that we will get justice.

27
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 1: They will completely disregard any sense of fairness, fair play,

28
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 1: a decency, honor, integrity when they're finally caught. And we're

29
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 1: seeing a little bit of I think a panic that

30
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,799
Speaker 1: is setting in among some of the media who have

31
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:16,919
Speaker 1: been running with this fairy tale for going on two

32
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 1: years now, and a lot of former Obama administration senior

33
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 1: government officials who have some explaining to do, at a minimum, Uh,

34
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 1: the issue of the possibility of a spot. I mean,

35
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:38,120
Speaker 1: it's been reported all over the place. People are naming

36
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 1: the informant. We'll just refer to him as the informant

37
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 1: guy who was meeting with Page and Papadopoulos, and that

38
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 1: that he was trying to ingratiate himself with some of

39
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 1: these Trump campaign officials, that he was pushing some of

40
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 1: these issues. This is entrapment. This is an intelligence operation.

41
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 1: That's what was being run to hear against people tied

42
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 1: to a presidential campaign. There's no way around this anymore.

43
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 1: And that's why you've seen a remarkable shift, unbelievable really,

44
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:18,520
Speaker 1: from if you think. I mean, this was a year

45
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 1: ago when people like you and me were saying that

46
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 1: it looked like somebody was spying on Trump and there's

47
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 1: oh no, it's crazy. It was a crazy thing to say.

48
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,639
Speaker 1: It was an irresponsible thing to say a year ago.

49
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 1: Now here we are and all of a sudden, the

50
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 1: anti Trump left is like, yeah, sure they were spying.

51
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 1: Of course there were spying. No big deal. Are we

52
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 1: supposed to pretend that we don't know that? A year

53
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 1: ago we were crazy to think that was happening, and

54
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:55,200
Speaker 1: now we're told we'd be crazy not to think that

55
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 1: was happening. You see what they're doing here. You see

56
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 1: how the propaganda is just constantly evade responsibility for their

57
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 1: delusions there, myth making their dishonesty. Because that's what's happening, right.

58
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 1: They just keep changing the story as it as it

59
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 1: moves along, as it fits their political needs, not as

60
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 1: it pertains to the reality of what has come before it.

61
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:24,599
Speaker 1: What do they have to say today? That's what they'll

62
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 1: say whatever works, whatever gets them through another twenty four

63
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 1: hour news cycle, but uh, this is very serious stuff. Also,

64
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:39,479
Speaker 1: note that the leaks that came out about this informant

65
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,920
Speaker 1: reported in a whole bunch of different places. Uh, New

66
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: York Times Daily Caller actually been doing and and hat

67
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:49,680
Speaker 1: tip to them, fantastic work on this one. And they're

68
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 1: just down the street here for me in d C.

69
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:54,719
Speaker 1: Daily Caller has been doing some great stuff on this

70
00:04:55,760 --> 00:05:00,600
Speaker 1: getting answers. But we know that the has been going

71
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 1: on now for a few days. We know that this

72
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:06,880
Speaker 1: information gets out there, and now you have the sanctimonious

73
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:14,159
Speaker 1: anti Trump left after using these police state tactics, which

74
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,159
Speaker 1: is what this is. I mean, this is the there's

75
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:19,599
Speaker 1: a reason, folks, and I try to remind all of

76
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 1: us at this from Tim and Tom, I try to

77
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 1: bring it into our conversation. The reason that a lot

78
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:28,520
Speaker 1: of countries, the most feared apparatus in the country is

79
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,919
Speaker 1: not in fact the military all that's the single greatest

80
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 1: concentration of force, But the most feared apparatus is the

81
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:43,600
Speaker 1: intelligence agency or agencies, and sometimes in fact the country

82
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 1: ends up being run by the person who had previously

83
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 1: occupied the job. Of top top spy, Vladimir Prutins one example,

84
00:05:55,920 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 1: but Saddam Hussein. You go through history, plenty of cases

85
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:04,559
Speaker 1: of either the person running the country was formerly running

86
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 1: the intelligence agencies, or really the most powerful person in

87
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 1: reality in the country was in fact the one running

88
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,279
Speaker 1: the intelligence agency, not the president of the prime minister

89
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:20,040
Speaker 1: of whomever. Because the ability to spy, to gather information,

90
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:23,800
Speaker 1: especially when you're talking about by extra legal nice way

91
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 1: of saying illegal means, gives tremendous power. As we know,

92
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:35,480
Speaker 1: power corrupts, and that's what you see happening here. They

93
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:40,480
Speaker 1: are now acting like this was all fine, this was necessary,

94
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,600
Speaker 1: There were plenty of reasons to do this spying on

95
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,920
Speaker 1: the Trump admistry. After telling us we were crazy before,

96
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,360
Speaker 1: now there's plenty of reasons to have this spying on

97
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 1: the Trump administration. And oh, by the way, they also

98
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 1: think that they that they can play this game of

99
00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,839
Speaker 1: league information about the informant to get ahead of the

100
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:04,239
Speaker 1: story and then act like, how dare anyone talk about

101
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 1: this informant? I mean, I'm seeing people with a straight

102
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:11,080
Speaker 1: face who are prominent government officials. Here's here's your Senator

103
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 1: Mark Warner is a perfect example play clip seven. When

104
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 1: individuals want to try to reveal classified information about the

105
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 1: identity of an FBI or c I a source that

106
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 1: is against the law. And I find it outrageous that

107
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 1: the president's allies are in effect playing uh fast and

108
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 1: loose with confidential information and don't take my work. Take

109
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:41,760
Speaker 1: the president's own FBI director Mr. Ray, who said, if

110
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 1: you go out and start exposing classified information about informants,

111
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 1: that you will make America less safe. I I am,

112
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 1: I find this totally outrageous. On some of the actions

113
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: of these albums. Who do we think expose this reported source? Uh,

114
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 1: we know who did near times anti Trump newspapers relying

115
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 1: on government as they say, believe them, take it or

116
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 1: leave it, government officials. So I need someone who explain

117
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 1: to me who's the one who's then endangering the source.

118
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 1: By the way, based on who we think the source

119
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 1: is not in danger at all. It's a complete and

120
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 1: utter lie. This is so flimsy. But you'll notice there's

121
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:25,480
Speaker 1: a lot of hiding behind there's there's there's a lot

122
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 1: of um hiding behind the bureaucracy going on here. A

123
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,320
Speaker 1: lot of all the sort of sources and method sources

124
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 1: and methods. Oh, now we're going to play that game

125
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 1: right now, We're going to play the All classified information

126
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 1: is sacrosancing can never, can never be justified to be released,

127
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:48,960
Speaker 1: even when it's a question about should the president even

128
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:53,440
Speaker 1: be under investigation? Right now? Don't we think that these

129
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:58,440
Speaker 1: are competing competing goods? Right? Uh? Should we know the

130
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,040
Speaker 1: truth about this one source so that we know if

131
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 1: this whole investigation of Trump is a sham put on

132
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 1: by senior Obama administration officials. That's what this is, folks.

133
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,839
Speaker 1: Obama's guys and a few gals that I can think

134
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 1: of may have been the ones it almost it seems

135
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:21,559
Speaker 1: certain they were the ones that created this whole collusion

136
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:25,080
Speaker 1: Russian narrative out of out of almost nothing. I mean,

137
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 1: they were stretching this stretching credulity to its limits in

138
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:33,679
Speaker 1: order to get this thing going. But now it's the

139
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 1: source to source? Please, okay a lot. There are a

140
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 1: lot of sources in a lot of places. There are

141
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:45,560
Speaker 1: no danger whatsoever. And this guy, I mean, especially now

142
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 1: that where we're finding out of this guy is based

143
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 1: on media reports? Are we all? So? Am I not

144
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,439
Speaker 1: allowed to talk about the sources? This is this? I

145
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 1: want to know. Senator Mark Warner. I don't want to

146
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 1: ask him. So people like me and allowed to say

147
00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 1: that it's been published everywhere. So is that a threat?

148
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 1: You know, there's a real underhanded litigiousness, you know, a

149
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:10,959
Speaker 1: desire to try to ensnare people in the law. It's

150
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 1: kind of like Mueller trying to get people lying on

151
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 1: about non crimes. Officiousness is at the heart of this mentality, right,

152
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 1: Oh no, you can't sources of methods, sources methods. The

153
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 1: sources has been blown all of the media. You all

154
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:30,240
Speaker 1: know who the sources, the sources being written about newspapers

155
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 1: all over the country. You do a Google search, you

156
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,560
Speaker 1: see his photos and then everything. So we're just gonna

157
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 1: sit around and be like, can't talk about you can't

158
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 1: talk about the source. Why do you think they really

159
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 1: care about this? Oh, that's right, because of how terrible

160
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 1: it looks that from what we know, this was an

161
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 1: individual who was run at the Trump campaign. This would

162
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 1: be like, think about how easy this is. I'm somebody

163
00:10:55,840 --> 00:11:00,839
Speaker 1: who wants to get at Hillary Clinton. Let's just say politically,

164
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 1: I want to. I want to I want to mess

165
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,640
Speaker 1: up her campaign. So what do I do? I hire

166
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:09,560
Speaker 1: some people to go and try and talk to some

167
00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 1: of Hillary's campaign aids about, uh, you know, hey guys,

168
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 1: you know, do you know, like, do you do you

169
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 1: have any friends you know where This is not a

170
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 1: perfect example, but I'm just trying to put this in

171
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 1: some kind of context. Do you know anybody who might

172
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 1: be able to, you know, help me get some weed?

173
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:27,959
Speaker 1: You know? Think about that, right, Think about easy that

174
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,959
Speaker 1: would be. And and by the way, the Hillary's campaign

175
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 1: aids could well say well, you know, no, no, you know,

176
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 1: I don't smoke or I don't do that or you

177
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,240
Speaker 1: know whatever. But then I could turn around and I

178
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:40,439
Speaker 1: could say, hey, guys, um, you know, I could talk

179
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 1: to d A and say, you know, there's some senior

180
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 1: Hillary people who are talking about about doing about some

181
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 1: drug deal stuff going on. I think you guys should

182
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,679
Speaker 1: really look into this. All of a sudden, there's a

183
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 1: drug investigation Hillary Clinton's campaign aids. Right, That's basically what

184
00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:58,320
Speaker 1: we're talking about here. Against the Trump campaign. You get

185
00:11:58,360 --> 00:11:59,720
Speaker 1: some guy to be like, hey, do you know anything

186
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 1: about Russia and emails? And you want to talk to

187
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 1: me about that a little bit? And these guys were like, yeah,

188
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 1: I don't really you know, nah, Papadopolis and and Paige

189
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:12,079
Speaker 1: not exactly not to be me, but not the sharpest

190
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 1: tools in the ship. And they're like, non, I got nothing.

191
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 1: Oh there's somebody here talking about Hillary Clinton emails. Guys,

192
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 1: we need to we need to investigate this. You see,

193
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 1: they really fabricated this narrata. That's what we're not just

194
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 1: finding out that they exceeded that that the deep state,

195
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:33,319
Speaker 1: anti Trump left, exceeded their authority, that they abused their power.

196
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 1: All of that is all we know that's true. Now

197
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: what we're facing is the possibility, the likelihood I would

198
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:44,000
Speaker 1: say that they basically fabricated this that they did. They

199
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:47,560
Speaker 1: did the equivalent of running a confidential informant up to

200
00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:51,080
Speaker 1: somebody to start a conversation and then use that conversation

201
00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 1: as the basis for an investigation. Well, I can tell

202
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:57,320
Speaker 1: you because I've been involved in counter terrorism cases, you

203
00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:01,680
Speaker 1: can do this with anyone. It's not hard, trust me.

204
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 1: You know, you run somebody a radical of let's just

205
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:07,520
Speaker 1: say any ideology to not make this too political right now,

206
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 1: but you run somebody up to somebody that you know

207
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 1: has pretty unorthodox views on certain things, you say, hey,

208
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,199
Speaker 1: you get them engaged in conversation, you can get them

209
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,320
Speaker 1: to say things. If you're trained, you know what you're doing,

210
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:23,559
Speaker 1: that would at least create a pretext for further investigation

211
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:29,200
Speaker 1: if you really really want to. But isn't this what

212
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 1: they and I'm not trying to exact, isn't this what

213
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:34,320
Speaker 1: they did with the Stazi? I mean, it isn't that

214
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,600
Speaker 1: what you would expect? And in an actual police state,

215
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 1: running informants into people's homes or running you a person

216
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 1: to person human intelligence operations also something I'm very familiar with.

217
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 1: And then use that interaction as the basis for remember

218
00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:57,959
Speaker 1: not a criminal investigation, a counterintelligence investigation, which needs an

219
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:03,679
Speaker 1: even looser pretext. It's all coming together now, isn't it.

220
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:05,600
Speaker 1: And this is why, by the way, there there's there's

221
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 1: a desperational left to make this go away, to hide

222
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 1: the information. But when I come back, I want to

223
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 1: talk about my other so that the whole informant thing.

224
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,439
Speaker 1: People like Mark Warner, all those guy's in Jeopardy, they're liars.

225
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 1: It's a joke. It's preposterous. The name is already out there.

226
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 1: We all know the guy's name. And they need they

227
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 1: need to stop playing these games. Right left. The Democrats

228
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 1: need to stop, but they won't. But even in addition

229
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 1: to that, you have the notion of the independent d

230
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 1: o J. I've the constitutional illiteracy on display from senior

231
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 1: Democrats and major media figures right now. He's a complete

232
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:51,800
Speaker 1: and utter debacle. I will give you details in just

233
00:14:51,880 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 1: a moment. But long term Republican call me was a

234
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,040
Speaker 1: long term Republican. They're all long term Republicans who hated Trump.

235
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 1: So that doesn't help a Trump. You won't have any

236
00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 1: doubt about that at the end of this because may

237
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 1: he'll find no but maybe maybe he and Comey are

238
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:23,240
Speaker 1: so close. Their history is so close together that when

239
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 1: you read Comey's book and you see what he has said,

240
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 1: you really wonder about the objectivity of the investigation. Look,

241
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 1: there was never a need for a special counsel. Special

242
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 1: counsel have targets. They're looking to try to find crimes

243
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 1: against people that doesn't serve the interests of America. Get

244
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 1: in there there, love it, there's getting frisky in there.

245
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 1: It was him versus Dan Abrams. I think he's like

246
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:52,000
Speaker 1: an NBC News analyst. But yeah, I hate that talking

247
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 1: about By the way, Oh, these are lifelong Republican and

248
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 1: comy was actually call me is not a lifelong Republican,

249
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 1: or at least not a GOT anymore. He changed his

250
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 1: party affiliation to independent years ago. But it's as though

251
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 1: they the people who say that, expect us not to

252
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 1: ever think about. Oh, there are Republicans who hate Trump

253
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 1: more than any Democrats that I know. There are Republicans

254
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,520
Speaker 1: who are people whose names you would all know, Folks

255
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 1: who I know for a fact, are angrier Trump than

256
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 1: a lot of the Democrats I know, because they feel

257
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:30,520
Speaker 1: like Trump has stolen their party, stolen their prerogative, stolen

258
00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:34,560
Speaker 1: their power, and they take it very personally the whole

259
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 1: There there are people and never Trump who are crazier

260
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 1: than almost not all, but almost any Democrats I know

261
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 1: in terms of their Trump arrangement syndrome. So how does

262
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 1: this talking point persist? I just want to know how

263
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 1: does this continue on all the Republicans? So what does

264
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:56,680
Speaker 1: that mean? There are Republicans who hate Trump more than

265
00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 1: any Democrat. But on the independence of the d o J.

266
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:03,960
Speaker 1: This is my favorite one. You get all these people saying, oh,

267
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 1: Congress can ask the d o J for information about

268
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 1: the investigation. Wrong Trump can't even communicate with the Department

269
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 1: of Justice about any investigation. You can't fire in either wrong.

270
00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:24,199
Speaker 1: This is just basic constitutional Well, this is illiteracy when

271
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 1: it comes to the Constitution. This is a lack I

272
00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:30,480
Speaker 1: can't even say of understanding. It's not so much that

273
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 1: they misinterpret the Constitution when it comes to DJ Right now,

274
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,560
Speaker 1: it seems to be a reminder that there are people

275
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,440
Speaker 1: who work in media and in the federal government who

276
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:44,240
Speaker 1: don't really know or respect much the notion of the

277
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 1: Constitution and the whole idea of oversight. Think about what

278
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:52,359
Speaker 1: it would mean if the d o J was beyond

279
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:55,239
Speaker 1: so they can just prosecute anybody for any reason. Right

280
00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 1: And there's what is the check on the Department of

281
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 1: Justice if not the Congress? You know what the answer is,

282
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 1: There isn't one. And we're tiring a counter intelligence investigation.

283
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:09,960
Speaker 1: I didn't even have a criminal predicate for this stuff.

284
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 1: They're just saying, oh, you know, we think national security,

285
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:15,160
Speaker 1: YadA YadA, let's do whatever we want, we'll keep it secret.

286
00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:20,680
Speaker 1: This is not okay. This is police state stuff, folks.

287
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm familiar with the tools and techniques and

288
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:27,560
Speaker 1: how these things can go. You do not want federal

289
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:32,640
Speaker 1: prosecutors operating at the highest levels of government who don't

290
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,439
Speaker 1: have to answer to anybody. But but that's what Democrats

291
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 1: are saying. They want to no, no, all an independent

292
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 1: do o J. You mean, like how the president can

293
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 1: fire all the U S. Attorneys at the start of

294
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:59,119
Speaker 1: his administration independent like that, he's holding the line for America.

295
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:06,760
Speaker 1: Buck Sex is back. If they ran a spy ring

296
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:10,680
Speaker 1: or an informant ring and they were paying people within

297
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 1: the Trump campaign, if any of that is true, that

298
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: is an absolute red line. There is not an honest

299
00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 1: person in this country who can believe that taxpayer dollars

300
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:25,879
Speaker 1: going to to fund this ring and and operate like this,

301
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,400
Speaker 1: like what said in the New York Times. If any

302
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,159
Speaker 1: of that is true, this is a red line in

303
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,879
Speaker 1: this country. You can't do this to political campaigns. This

304
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,679
Speaker 1: was done in in the spring, I mean before the

305
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:39,199
Speaker 1: counterintelligence investigation was even open. If that's true, we need

306
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,639
Speaker 1: to know about it. If they paid someone, it's an

307
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:45,520
Speaker 1: absolute red line. And this is over with. This is

308
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:49,199
Speaker 1: over with, He says. Um, we'll have to see if

309
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:52,920
Speaker 1: Devin Nounez is right on this one, and to give

310
00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 1: his perspective on this and a lot of other stuff

311
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:57,879
Speaker 1: going on right now with Russia collusion and the Muller

312
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,760
Speaker 1: probe and all the rest of it. Andy McCarthy is

313
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:04,080
Speaker 1: with us now. He's a National Review columnists also served

314
00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:07,320
Speaker 1: as as an assistant United States Attorney for the Southern

315
00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:10,119
Speaker 1: District of New York. Check out his latest column on

316
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 1: National View dot Com and politicized Justice, Desperate times call

317
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:18,200
Speaker 1: for disparate measures. And you're great to have you back,

318
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,679
Speaker 1: Great to be with you. Um let's start. I mean,

319
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:23,160
Speaker 1: I really enjoyed your column right it over the weekend

320
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 1: where you just lay out the the enormous differences between

321
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,680
Speaker 1: how the Hillary email investigation was handled by the same

322
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:33,080
Speaker 1: people in in in many cases in d O J

323
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 1: versus what's going on with Trump at each at every

324
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:37,920
Speaker 1: stage of the game. But before we get into that

325
00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 1: side by side comparison, which I think everybody should be

326
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:42,719
Speaker 1: familiar with and they should read your work on it,

327
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 1: what do you make of this whole, this whole informant situation.

328
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 1: And yet Noon is saying, well, if this happened, it's

329
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:49,399
Speaker 1: a red line. I'm looking around, I'm seeing a lot

330
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 1: of Democrats that are saying well, you know, we maybe

331
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,679
Speaker 1: kind of needed an informant because Trump is so dirty

332
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:59,880
Speaker 1: or something. Well that's the problem, bucket's the or something.

333
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:04,000
Speaker 1: You know. Um, I'm not in the same place as

334
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:09,160
Speaker 1: Chairman Nunez of the Intelligence Committee, although I think he's

335
00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:15,560
Speaker 1: uh a good right, because I can imagine certain scenarios

336
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 1: as I'm sure you can, where if we had really

337
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:23,560
Speaker 1: strong evidence to believe that a political campaign was in

338
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 1: cahoots with adversarial foreign power, that that would cry out

339
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:31,840
Speaker 1: to be investigated, and I would be you know, it

340
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 1: would be something that you would hope responsible people would

341
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:40,239
Speaker 1: would think long and hard and be sure about it

342
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:43,720
Speaker 1: before they took the what would be a grievous step

343
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:49,159
Speaker 1: of of using our counter intelligence powers, which are meant

344
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:53,080
Speaker 1: not to spy on Americans but to protect the country

345
00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 1: from hostile foreign powers, you know, before you would take

346
00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:57,919
Speaker 1: the step and use those powers in this kind of

347
00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:01,920
Speaker 1: a situation. One would hope that, you know, people would

348
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:03,800
Speaker 1: think long and hard about it. But I could imagine

349
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:07,199
Speaker 1: if there was such evidence uh doing that. I just

350
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,600
Speaker 1: don't see that kind of evidence here, right, and and

351
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 1: so what when we look at this though, Andy, I

352
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:13,800
Speaker 1: have to I have to know that there are some

353
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,919
Speaker 1: people I think I saw an analysis in the Washington

354
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:20,400
Speaker 1: Post actually saying that if there was, and there's also

355
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 1: a lot of games being played here with well was

356
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:25,359
Speaker 1: there an informant or wasn't there? Right, You've got major

357
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,480
Speaker 1: newspapers that are running with what they say or U

358
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 1: S officials, d J leaks about this this individual that

359
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,440
Speaker 1: allegedly was reporting on Trump, and there's a lot of

360
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 1: specific details about his name that's already out there all

361
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 1: over the place. Also with the specific people about whom

362
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 1: he met with your Carter page and Papadopolis and with

363
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 1: all that, now I'm seeing people say, well it was

364
00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:50,160
Speaker 1: it was to protect Trump, And I'm seeing some desperate

365
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,280
Speaker 1: lines out there from the media on this, which which

366
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:55,399
Speaker 1: to me raises even more suspicions because there's just no

367
00:22:55,440 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 1: way this was to protect Trump. Yeah. Plus, you know,

368
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 1: when when you're gonna do things like we've seen done

369
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:07,680
Speaker 1: in this case, and we know that there were, for example,

370
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:13,120
Speaker 1: Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act wire taps that were done. Uh,

371
00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:15,159
Speaker 1: it's a part of federal law whether you do with

372
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:17,840
Speaker 1: this on the intelligence side or the or the criminal side,

373
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 1: that before you take a step like that, you have

374
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 1: to consider and in the case of wire taps, show

375
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:29,840
Speaker 1: to a chord that you've that there are alternative investigative

376
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:32,840
Speaker 1: techniques that you've thought about using or tried to use,

377
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 1: and they won't work or don't work, and that's why

378
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:40,240
Speaker 1: you need to do something. You know, this intrusive and

379
00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 1: that should back everybody up because there's usually always a

380
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:50,119
Speaker 1: way to to use a more benign procedure, particularly if

381
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,440
Speaker 1: you're trying to protect the person, not investigate them. I mean,

382
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 1: and I'm familiar with mafia cases where the FBI has

383
00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 1: approached people whose names came up and wire taps to say, uh,

384
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:04,440
Speaker 1: you know, we don't want to blow our investigation here,

385
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 1: but you better be careful, um, because you know you're

386
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:12,400
Speaker 1: you're in cahoots with not nice people and they're yeah,

387
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 1: they're talking about they're talking about your name and sleeping

388
00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:17,159
Speaker 1: with the fishes. I get it. Yeah, right. So I

389
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 1: don't know why you rate that kind of a kind

390
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 1: of behavior or that kind of treatment if you're mixed

391
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:25,960
Speaker 1: up with wise guys, But you don't rate that kind

392
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 1: of treatment, you know, if you're running for president of

393
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:30,199
Speaker 1: the United States. So why couldn't they have gone to

394
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:33,560
Speaker 1: the Trump campaign and said, you know, we're a little

395
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 1: concerned here that the Russians are making efforts to infiltrate

396
00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:39,600
Speaker 1: your campaign, and we were going to speak to a

397
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:42,320
Speaker 1: couple of people, but we want to alert you that

398
00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:44,920
Speaker 1: that there's a problem or you know, you've got a

399
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 1: guy like Carter Paige, who's one of the guys that

400
00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 1: this informant evidently spied on. Paige had a prior history

401
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 1: of cooperating with the FBI and the Justice Department in

402
00:24:56,080 --> 00:25:00,640
Speaker 1: connection with a Russian investigation where they were trying to, uh,

403
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:04,200
Speaker 1: evidently recruit him to be an informant. So they had

404
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 1: they had standing ties with this guy to the point

405
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:09,360
Speaker 1: where they had used his information in a criminal complaint

406
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,119
Speaker 1: against the Russian spy. So why don't you bring Page

407
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 1: in and sit him down at the table and say,

408
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:17,920
Speaker 1: Carter or what's going on here? Um? Instead, it looks

409
00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 1: to me like they jumped to the you know, to

410
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 1: the sort of you know, Defcon one where they say, uh,

411
00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 1: we need to infiltrate this campaign with spies and we

412
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:34,480
Speaker 1: need to do national security wire taps. And I've been

413
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 1: resisting leading to that conclusion, Buck, because I don't want

414
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 1: to believe that that's what they did. I believe, I

415
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:44,000
Speaker 1: want to believe that if they did those kinds of tactics,

416
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:47,480
Speaker 1: that there must have been, you know, really strong evidence

417
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 1: that Trump or people in Trump's campaign were in some

418
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:53,639
Speaker 1: kind of a nefarious conspiracy with the Kremlin. But I

419
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:57,520
Speaker 1: ain't seeing it. We're speaking to Annie McCarthy. He's at

420
00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 1: a National Review. You should read his his it is

421
00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:03,520
Speaker 1: work on this issue, especially where he lines up the

422
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:08,120
Speaker 1: pieces in politicized justice, desperate times call for disparate measures.

423
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:09,960
Speaker 1: Read it. I read the more than once. It really do.

424
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:12,240
Speaker 1: Please check it out. But any I want to ask

425
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:13,560
Speaker 1: also about I mean, I got a lot of questions

426
00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:14,879
Speaker 1: I want to ask you. I know, we we can't

427
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:18,600
Speaker 1: trespass too much on your time, but oversight, I'm also

428
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,959
Speaker 1: seeing a lot of Trump is not Trump is not

429
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,959
Speaker 1: allowed to say anything to the d o J. Trump

430
00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:27,159
Speaker 1: is not allowed to fire anyone in the d J.

431
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 1: Congress is not allowed to get information from within the

432
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 1: d o J. Who do some of these people running

433
00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:35,480
Speaker 1: around it? And you know I'm talking, You've got fine

434
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:37,600
Speaker 1: steins and our fine stign You got others out there

435
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 1: who do they think has oversight over the Department of Justice.

436
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:42,760
Speaker 1: I mean, correct me if I'm wrong. The Department of

437
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 1: Justice was created by an Act of Congress, and it's

438
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 1: an executive practice, executive branch agency. That's exactly right, and

439
00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:58,000
Speaker 1: it it answers to the politically accountable political representative. In

440
00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:00,679
Speaker 1: the executive branch, it's the president and of course, and

441
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 1: in Congress it's the representatives elected by the American people.

442
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:08,119
Speaker 1: So of course they're supposed to have oversight. And Buck,

443
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,600
Speaker 1: I want to make one other point, which is kind

444
00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:16,280
Speaker 1: of up the alley, um of of your experience in intelligence. Um,

445
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:19,760
Speaker 1: but is he is getting lost? I think in all

446
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,159
Speaker 1: of this talk about how we need the independence of

447
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:29,400
Speaker 1: law enforcement YadA YadA, YadA, um intelligence, especially counter intelligence,

448
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:34,680
Speaker 1: the FBI's um mission to protect the country against foreign threats.

449
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:40,040
Speaker 1: That's not law enforcement activity. That is a mission that

450
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:44,520
Speaker 1: the Justice Department and the FBI have which is completely

451
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 1: to support the president's most important duty to protect the

452
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:54,000
Speaker 1: United States against and and screams for oversight, Andy, because

453
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:58,440
Speaker 1: it's so such a potent weapon in the wrong hands. Yes,

454
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:02,440
Speaker 1: so you know, when the president wants to wants to decide,

455
00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,439
Speaker 1: you know, should we take this or that measure against

456
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:08,800
Speaker 1: some foreign country? That might be a threat to the

457
00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,960
Speaker 1: United States or one of our interests. It's a commonplace

458
00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:15,639
Speaker 1: through the president to say I want an investigation of

459
00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:18,320
Speaker 1: this or I want information about that. This is not

460
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,960
Speaker 1: law enforcement, you know, it's it's perfectly well and good

461
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:24,760
Speaker 1: to say in the four corners of a criminal prosecution,

462
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,879
Speaker 1: we don't want politics intruding because we want the public

463
00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 1: to understand that the rule of law is what governs

464
00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:36,399
Speaker 1: us in that realm, and it's not the whims of politics.

465
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:39,680
Speaker 1: But when you're talking about the counter intelligence mission of

466
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:43,720
Speaker 1: the United States, that's holy in service to the president.

467
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 1: So the thought that he can't interfere with it is like, well,

468
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:50,280
Speaker 1: why do we have it? Ben? Yeah? I mean, and

469
00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 1: you spend decades at the Southern District of New York

470
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 1: as an assistant U S Attorney. Was is there any

471
00:28:57,480 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 1: way where if you were working on a case that

472
00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:02,840
Speaker 1: was really politic the sensitive and Congress is like, well,

473
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:04,440
Speaker 1: we we want we want to have Andy come down

474
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 1: and talk to us about this, where you could say, Nona, guys, sorry,

475
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:14,440
Speaker 1: the Department of Justice is independent of Congression. Congress. Yeah,

476
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: I think Buck. Usually the way these things work out, Um,

477
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 1: Congress is sensitive to the idea that if it asks

478
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:30,040
Speaker 1: intrusive questions about an active investigation or an active prosecution,

479
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:32,440
Speaker 1: like a case that's on trial, it could screw up

480
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 1: the investigation or it can screw up the courtpor sitting,

481
00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,360
Speaker 1: and it doesn't want to be politically responsible for that.

482
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:41,560
Speaker 1: So generally speaking, Congress is responsible about what it asks for.

483
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 1: And if there's a problem, the Justice Department comes to

484
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:46,920
Speaker 1: them and says, you know, we'd love to be able

485
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 1: to help you here, but here's the you know, here's

486
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:52,320
Speaker 1: the three reasons why it would really hurt our case. Right.

487
00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:55,560
Speaker 1: But but but absolutely any but but could they Stone Wall,

488
00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:57,960
Speaker 1: I mean, rather, could you have you know, in this

489
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,000
Speaker 1: theoretical example, the answer is no. You gotta give Congress

490
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 1: the information they want. That's exactly right. The Justice Department

491
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 1: has an entity within the Justice Department that if you

492
00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:11,800
Speaker 1: get if you're a line prosecutor in New York and

493
00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 1: you get a question from a congressman, you're supposed to

494
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:15,920
Speaker 1: get in touch with main Justice and they get in

495
00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 1: touch with Congress, so that you know, Congress isn't being ignored.

496
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 1: But those things are getting worked out. What about on

497
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 1: the presidentials? And then then we'll let you go any

498
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 1: But on the on the president's side of things, he

499
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:28,600
Speaker 1: put out this tweet he said he wants he wants

500
00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:30,680
Speaker 1: the d o J to look into interference, and people

501
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 1: are saying he can't do that. The Department of Justice,

502
00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 1: once again is independent. Well, it is part of the

503
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 1: executive branch. So how does that work out when when

504
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:40,920
Speaker 1: push comes to shove, I don't mean when everyone's playing

505
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 1: nice with each other, Well, there is no independent you know,

506
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:50,600
Speaker 1: the the Justice Department, the FBI are not a fourth

507
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 1: branch of the government. There politically accountable there. There they

508
00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:59,760
Speaker 1: answer to the president. He's the politically accountable person. And

509
00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:03,480
Speaker 1: if they commit misconduct, it's the president who's accountable for it.

510
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:07,200
Speaker 1: So of course they answer to the president. And those

511
00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 1: who say that, you know, they have to be totally independent.

512
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 1: There's you know, there's a dark history of law enforcement,

513
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 1: awesome enforcement power being completely divorced from political accountability, and

514
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:24,080
Speaker 1: it usually is the history of tyranny. It's a pretty

515
00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 1: dark place. So, you know, I think I understand the

516
00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 1: good faith of people who say we have to resist

517
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 1: political interference with law enforcement. And again, I think what

518
00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 1: that means is that if there's a prosecution. We don't want,

519
00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:43,280
Speaker 1: you know, politics deciding who gets prosecuted, and we don't

520
00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:47,240
Speaker 1: want it intruding into a trial or an investigation. But

521
00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 1: the thought that these people don't answer to the political

522
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 1: leadership of the executive ranch in our system is just wrong. Yeah. Well,

523
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:59,240
Speaker 1: I'm seeing a lot of that wrongness though right now. People.

524
00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:03,960
Speaker 1: H yeah, I think almost you think that they're committing

525
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,960
Speaker 1: politics here. Yeah, you get a sense that has nothing

526
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,080
Speaker 1: to do with with the laws. Everybody Annie McCarthy on

527
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,640
Speaker 1: this stuff has been doing fantastic job. In fact, the

528
00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:14,600
Speaker 1: President himself has mentioned Anthony uh and and and he's

529
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:16,800
Speaker 1: writing on this in recent weeks. So check out on

530
00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 1: nash review dot com. Andy, thank you so much for

531
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 1: making the time. We appreciate it. Thanks so much fun.

532
00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:26,080
Speaker 1: All right, team eight four four to eight to five,

533
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:30,960
Speaker 1: eight four four nine hundred buck. We have much much

534
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 1: more show coming for you, including perhaps discussion of some

535
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,440
Speaker 1: foreign policy in the next hour. What the latest is there?

536
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 1: I was right on China. We'll get to that. Stay

537
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:54,280
Speaker 1: with me. Politicizing what is a legitimate activity on the

538
00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:56,440
Speaker 1: part and an important one on the part of the FBI.

539
00:32:56,960 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 1: They use foremant informants and have strict rules and protocols

540
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:03,680
Speaker 1: under this. And but the big, the big thing here

541
00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:06,719
Speaker 1: is this is not about spying on on his campaign.

542
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,840
Speaker 1: It's about what the Russians are doing. Were they attempting

543
00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 1: to infiltrate the campaign? And that was the concern. I mean,

544
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:18,480
Speaker 1: that's the former director of National Intelligence. Is he serious?

545
00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 1: They're not spying on the campaign. They're spying on the

546
00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 1: Russians who are trying to infiltrate and therefore ally with

547
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:32,560
Speaker 1: the campaign. But that means you're spying on the campaign, right,

548
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:39,120
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not just you know, watching the back alley.

549
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:42,280
Speaker 1: I'm watching the back alley to see if the you know,

550
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:46,640
Speaker 1: illegal drug deal goes on. It's like, yeah, of course it.

551
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:52,680
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, this doesn't even make sense anymore. I also,

552
00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:55,000
Speaker 1: I know I asked any about him. I gotta try

553
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,640
Speaker 1: to find it. I think it was one of CNN's

554
00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:00,160
Speaker 1: analysts and whatever they're paying or it's not enough who

555
00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 1: wrote in the Washington Post. I think that if they

556
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,120
Speaker 1: were spying on Trump, it was for his own good.

557
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:08,120
Speaker 1: That's the new that's the new hotness, the the old

558
00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:11,439
Speaker 1: and busted like no longer cool to say if you're

559
00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:15,399
Speaker 1: an anti Trump leftist. Is there was no spying. Now

560
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:20,560
Speaker 1: the new hotness is there was spying, but it was

561
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:24,680
Speaker 1: actually pro Trump spying. Kind of like they'll say, oh,

562
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:30,560
Speaker 1: the FBI investigation shows how favorable they were toward Trump

563
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:36,480
Speaker 1: because there weren't more leaks about the investigation. Meanwhile, that's

564
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:40,400
Speaker 1: because they didn't find anything. If they had found stuff,

565
00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:43,759
Speaker 1: they would have ended Trump's campaign. We all get that.

566
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:50,160
Speaker 1: But there's just this desperation of storylines, narratives, talking points

567
00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:53,960
Speaker 1: out there that never mind, aren't true, don't make sense.

568
00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:58,000
Speaker 1: And the former director of National Intelligence who's a clear

569
00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:01,399
Speaker 1: anti Trump partisan, there's no question about it. Same thing

570
00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:04,239
Speaker 1: with Brennan. Whether these are people, you know, if you say, oh,

571
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 1: their career, buck their career. Yeah, just like Comey's a

572
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:12,759
Speaker 1: career prosecutor, Patrick Fitzgerald's a career prosecutor. Just because you

573
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:16,520
Speaker 1: worked in the government forever doesn't mean you're impartial. You know,

574
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:18,440
Speaker 1: maybe that's one of the myths that we have to

575
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:22,080
Speaker 1: just completely tear apart here. Oh so and so we

576
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:25,879
Speaker 1: don't work for you know, Clapper is a career, a career,

577
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:31,319
Speaker 1: whatever career, military, career you name. It doesn't mean you're impartial,

578
00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:33,880
Speaker 1: doesn't mean you don't have you can't beat partisan, have

579
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:36,520
Speaker 1: political biases that affect the way you do your job.

580
00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 1: But I just have to love that. Yeah, they weren't

581
00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:44,120
Speaker 1: spying on Trump. They were spying on the Russians allying

582
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:48,160
Speaker 1: with Trump. Oh well, well in that case, you know,

583
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:51,600
Speaker 1: and now we we We didn't set up a video

584
00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:53,759
Speaker 1: camera in your bedroom to watch you. It was to

585
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:57,480
Speaker 1: watch you and your spouse. Oh well, I guess then

586
00:35:57,520 --> 00:36:01,560
Speaker 1: it's like, no problem, no big deal. Do they do

587
00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:04,319
Speaker 1: they hear themselves when they say these things. I guess

588
00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 1: at this point the storylines are collapsing more and more,

589
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,360
Speaker 1: and now the presidents saying He's gonna get some answers,

590
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:12,759
Speaker 1: get the truth. He met with Director rat to day

591
00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:16,240
Speaker 1: of the FBI, So maybe we'll finally get those answers.

592
00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 1: Are you an employer, property manager, or financial company that

593
00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:29,840
Speaker 1: needs somebody who you can absolutely trust to do background checks, tenants, screening,

594
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:35,520
Speaker 1: or vetting and investigative services, then you need Global Verification Network.

595
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:40,920
Speaker 1: Global Verification is the only dual certified veteran owned background

596
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 1: investigation and vetting company. They are headquartered here in Chicago.

597
00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:48,320
Speaker 1: A lot of the companies in this space. They send

598
00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:51,440
Speaker 1: stuff overseas, not just your data, which by the way,

599
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:53,520
Speaker 1: means it's easier for it to get hacked and get

600
00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,240
Speaker 1: all out there. But also a lot of the work

601
00:36:56,320 --> 00:37:00,640
Speaker 1: will be offshore. You want veterans, you want people in

602
00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:05,759
Speaker 1: this country working on your case. Global Verification Network is

603
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:09,400

00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:51,720
Speaker 1: to would be shooters who pervert silence into endorsement. Guns

613
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 1: are probably not that hard to get despite the laws

614
00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:58,400
Speaker 1: in place. Oliver Northern's head of the n r A,

615
00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:00,840
Speaker 1: they're not a constructive group here. They're just trying to

616
00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:03,359
Speaker 1: protect the Second Amendment and use the gun issue as

617
00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:06,640
Speaker 1: a proxy for government encroaching on individual rights. The only

618
00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:10,240
Speaker 1: difference between us and everybody else is our gun culture.

619
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 1: But this is just straight out of their traditional n

620
00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:14,360
Speaker 1: r A playbook. And they want to talk about riddling,

621
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:16,279
Speaker 1: They want to talk about video games, they want to

622
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 1: talk about culture. They want to talk about anything except

623
00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:23,360
Speaker 1: easy access to guns. Until the political leadership, you know,

624
00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:27,000
Speaker 1: is not the holy opened subsidiary of the gun lobby.

625
00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 1: When kids are telling us they know their next we're

626
00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:33,719
Speaker 1: doing something wrong. This is just the bottom line. Have

627
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:36,680
Speaker 1: you guys done unspeakable? Have you guys done enos? Not?

628
00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:39,839
Speaker 1: Of course not. But it's like every other issue. The

629
00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:44,480
Speaker 1: American people are united overwhelmingly gun owners, gun gun owners,

630
00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:49,439
Speaker 1: uncommon sense, gun safety legislation, expand background checks. The way

631
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:55,120
Speaker 1: with a gun show doesn't ever pass. It's a three

632
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:58,200
Speaker 1: letter word. It's the n r A, and it's Trump

633
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,560
Speaker 1: and the Republicans who don't have the it's to stand

634
00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 1: up to these people. And that's pretty pathetic. The n

635
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:07,440
Speaker 1: RA as a boogeyman, and the whole gun debate is

636
00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:11,839
Speaker 1: really now just a talking point for stupid people. What

637
00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:13,520
Speaker 1: what is well? How is the n r A to

638
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:19,120
Speaker 1: blame for some evil little malcontent stealing his father's guns

639
00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:25,399
Speaker 1: illegally right a minor, and possession of firearms illegal, bring

640
00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:29,759
Speaker 1: them onto a school property illegal, Killing a bunch of

641
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:32,440
Speaker 1: innocent people, shooting a much of other people, all very

642
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:37,080
Speaker 1: very illegal. Why is this the n race fall? This

643
00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:40,799
Speaker 1: is why I always come back to the only policy

644
00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:46,040
Speaker 1: that could be advocated that is intellectually consistent. Put aside

645
00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:50,440
Speaker 1: for a moment that it's not feasible that it's unconstitutional,

646
00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:54,120
Speaker 1: that I think it's a bad idea in a hundred

647
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:57,600
Speaker 1: different ways, But the only one that at least is

648
00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:00,799
Speaker 1: work discussing at this point, considering all the gun laws

649
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:04,839
Speaker 1: that are already in place, would be an all out

650
00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:10,600
Speaker 1: ban on private firearms ownership. Really, and that's it, because

651
00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:13,600
Speaker 1: short of that, how do you stop the guy owns

652
00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:17,440
Speaker 1: a hand gunning a shotgun, his kids stole them. I

653
00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:20,040
Speaker 1: think he also might have don't quote me on this

654
00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:21,719
Speaker 1: when producer might fact check him in this. I think

655
00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:27,560
Speaker 1: he also saw down the barrel again illegal. Uh So,

656
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:31,040
Speaker 1: everything else they're talking about is just virtue signaling. It's

657
00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:38,279
Speaker 1: just emotion masquerading as policy discussion. Bernie Sanders, by the

658
00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:42,640
Speaker 1: Way Center from Vermont, I think they've recently got a

659
00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:44,640
Speaker 1: little stricterer. But Vermont has some of the loosest gun

660
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:47,000
Speaker 1: laws in the country and some of the lowest. I

661
00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:50,000
Speaker 1: believe it actually might be the lowest per capita violent

662
00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:53,200
Speaker 1: crime in the country as well. So it's really easy

663
00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:57,040
Speaker 1: to buy a gun in Vermont and there's almost no

664
00:40:57,160 --> 00:41:00,000
Speaker 1: crime that is, you know, violent gun crime in Vermont.

665
00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:03,799
Speaker 1: So I don't understand what's I thought it was about

666
00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:06,080
Speaker 1: the laws, right, Oh, maybe it's not about the laws.

667
00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:09,040
Speaker 1: Maybe there's something else going on. Yeah, thanks Mike, Mike,

668
00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:11,520
Speaker 1: check me saught off. So add that to the list

669
00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:16,399
Speaker 1: of illegal things that this little mass murderer did. So

670
00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:21,080
Speaker 1: what are we gonna do? Work on parents better securing

671
00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:23,960
Speaker 1: their farms. Sure, you can pass a law that say

672
00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:26,919
Speaker 1: it's gotta secure farms in New York and you've gotta

673
00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:29,440
Speaker 1: have your gun in a lockbox with a trigger guard

674
00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:32,280
Speaker 1: on it in the lock box and separate lock box

675
00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:37,080
Speaker 1: for ammunition, which is gonna be great when the burgler comes.

676
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:39,880
Speaker 1: Burgler comes through the door and you can throw not

677
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:43,279
Speaker 1: one but two lock boxes at him because you're not

678
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:45,920
Speaker 1: gonna have time to actually get your weapon. But you

679
00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:52,319
Speaker 1: can pass a lall like that. So much dishonest around

680
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:55,759
Speaker 1: this issue. I'm seeing that this one's not gonna last

681
00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:59,360
Speaker 1: quite as long though. I think they've got other problems

682
00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:02,240
Speaker 1: trying to prop up the whole Russia collusion fantasy narrative

683
00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:04,239
Speaker 1: right there. There are other things that the media is

684
00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:08,640
Speaker 1: got to exert its energy on right now, then just

685
00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:11,279
Speaker 1: bashing the n r A. It is not an overstatement

686
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:15,040
Speaker 1: to say that that are mainstream media in this country

687
00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:22,000
Speaker 1: is more comfortable using really harsh language, defamatory language about

688
00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:26,120
Speaker 1: the National Rifle Association that they are about hamas or

689
00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:28,200
Speaker 1: members of m S thirteen. That's just a fact at

690
00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:32,920
Speaker 1: this point. You know, you never see someone in the

691
00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:36,560
Speaker 1: media challenge somebody from their side or the Democrat left

692
00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:39,160
Speaker 1: side on being too mean about the n r A

693
00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:44,560
Speaker 1: on maybe don't call them terrorists. You will see people say, oh,

694
00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:47,080
Speaker 1: hold on, I miss their tea, and they're God's children too,

695
00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:52,520
Speaker 1: or you know, Gaya's children. I don't want to exclude

696
00:42:53,280 --> 00:43:01,200
Speaker 1: people who are pantheists or whatever. So yeah, there's that.

697
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:06,719
Speaker 1: There's that, uh CNN and on others. By the way,

698
00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:11,120
Speaker 1: I've been running around, their whole thing is that they're objective,

699
00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:13,399
Speaker 1: they're honest, their journalists and look, there are some good

700
00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:15,200
Speaker 1: journalists at all these places because it's tough to get

701
00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:16,759
Speaker 1: a job in journalism and you gotta go where the

702
00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:18,640
Speaker 1: money is if you want to actually support yourself and

703
00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:22,319
Speaker 1: make a living. I get that, you know, people like, look,

704
00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:23,600
Speaker 1: why do you go work at CNN for a couple

705
00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:26,719
Speaker 1: of years because they were gonna pay me and I

706
00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:29,160
Speaker 1: wanted to go in there and fight the lines. Then

707
00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:30,600
Speaker 1: I didn't realize that every time I went in the

708
00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:33,319
Speaker 1: lines then I was gonna have about thirty seconds and

709
00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:35,680
Speaker 1: my arms and my legs were gonna be shackled, and

710
00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:41,560
Speaker 1: you know, it was never actually a fight, a fair fight. Yeah,

711
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:44,560
Speaker 1: so I left. But you take the opportunities where you

712
00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:48,520
Speaker 1: can express your opinions and try to convince and try

713
00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:53,440
Speaker 1: to engage in polemical combat where you can. But seeing

714
00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:55,040
Speaker 1: in these other places, they they've got a lot of

715
00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:57,759
Speaker 1: problems with the truth, as you know, fake news. There

716
00:43:57,760 --> 00:43:59,520
Speaker 1: is a reason why they get so upset about fake news.

717
00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:03,600
Speaker 1: There's a reason why they will now actually canceled guests

718
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:06,279
Speaker 1: who have ever publicly referred to SENN as fake news.

719
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:11,120
Speaker 1: Think about that. Wow, really really sensitive, you know, really

720
00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:16,680
Speaker 1: sensitive indeed. Um, But on this issue of guns specifically,

721
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:20,160
Speaker 1: they just repeat a line now that is so blatant

722
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:23,600
Speaker 1: and so obviously false that it can't be a mistake.

723
00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:27,520
Speaker 1: It has to be intentional, and it has to do

724
00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:30,879
Speaker 1: with the the the the idea that there have been

725
00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:35,240
Speaker 1: twenty two and this was from CNN's official account, twenty

726
00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:41,719
Speaker 1: two school shootings. Uh this year, two school shootings. You

727
00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:44,440
Speaker 1: might say, Buck, that's that's a lot of school shootings,

728
00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:46,200
Speaker 1: and you'd be right that that is a lot of

729
00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:48,719
Speaker 1: school shootings. And then you also may see the statistic

730
00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:51,600
Speaker 1: where they'll say school shooting since two thousand and nine,

731
00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:56,479
Speaker 1: and it's like Mexico eight, South Africa six, Russia one.

732
00:44:56,960 --> 00:44:59,000
Speaker 1: By you believe that Russian number, I don't think so

733
00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:04,040
Speaker 1: Russia in Germany one, Japan, Switzerland, Netherlands, etcetera. Zero, the

734
00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 1: United States two eight, oh my gosh, eight, more than

735
00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:13,400
Speaker 1: a bunch of other countries like Japan. They want to

736
00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:16,000
Speaker 1: show us. Okay, what's the truth of this number they

737
00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:19,560
Speaker 1: keep putting out there. Let's just focus on this year

738
00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:21,359
Speaker 1: before I get into this. Since two thousand and nine,

739
00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:29,239
Speaker 1: they refer to these incidents as school shootings. But what

740
00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:31,920
Speaker 1: they mean by a school shooting is someone is shot

741
00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:36,359
Speaker 1: by any kind of firearm, I believe, including a baby

742
00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:42,200
Speaker 1: gun in one incident. I kid you, not uh anywhere

743
00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:44,600
Speaker 1: on a campus of any kind in the United States.

744
00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:47,719
Speaker 1: You might say, well, Buck, that sounds like a you know,

745
00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:52,960
Speaker 1: school shooting. I said, Okay, just understand that they used

746
00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:54,600
Speaker 1: the number of twenty two to make it seem like

747
00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:58,279
Speaker 1: there have been twenty two cases like Parkland, like what

748
00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:03,000
Speaker 1: just happened in Texas, right, whether you had a mass

749
00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:07,919
Speaker 1: casualty event many students killed and wounded. Uh, And and yes,

750
00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:11,200
Speaker 1: one of these incidents is too many. But that being

751
00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:13,560
Speaker 1: the case, why do they have to lie about how

752
00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:16,960
Speaker 1: many incidents there are? And what does that do to

753
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:21,279
Speaker 1: their credibilities news networks? Because what they are saying, you know,

754
00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:25,400
Speaker 1: count as twenty two shootings include things like a gang

755
00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:27,560
Speaker 1: fight on a university campus, or someone pulls out a

756
00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:31,200
Speaker 1: gun and shoots at somebody else. Okay, it's a school shooting,

757
00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:36,760
Speaker 1: but not not really it occurred on school grounds somewhere.

758
00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:41,399
Speaker 1: They include and this is what really they include completely

759
00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:44,680
Speaker 1: legally owned guns but obviously you can't bring them on

760
00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:49,879
Speaker 1: school property in most cases, but accidental discharge, including one

761
00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:54,719
Speaker 1: incident this year of an accidental discharge in a classroom

762
00:46:55,360 --> 00:47:02,319
Speaker 1: by somebody giving a gun safety instruction. There's a very

763
00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:05,120
Speaker 1: famous video. I'm sure many of you I've seen it

764
00:47:05,120 --> 00:47:07,920
Speaker 1: in my gun safety classes. I've taken many of them

765
00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:10,480
Speaker 1: over the years. Very famous video of a guy I

766
00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:14,800
Speaker 1: think he's in Florida who pulls out a glock. I

767
00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:16,719
Speaker 1: think he was d e A but I you know,

768
00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:18,440
Speaker 1: I can't remember what the what the letters were in

769
00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:20,520
Speaker 1: his chest. I think it was a d age and

770
00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:22,880
Speaker 1: he's giving a lecture in front of a class and

771
00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:25,600
Speaker 1: you know, with with a glock, many of you know

772
00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:29,400
Speaker 1: where this is going. You can remove the magazine. I

773
00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:35,080
Speaker 1: still have one of the chamber, right, so he uh

774
00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:39,120
Speaker 1: if members, I think he cleared his weapon, but then

775
00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:45,480
Speaker 1: rack the slide and then pulled out the magazine and

776
00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:47,480
Speaker 1: there was one of the chamber or he might have

777
00:47:47,480 --> 00:47:49,040
Speaker 1: actually just pulled the magazine out and left one of

778
00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:50,960
Speaker 1: the chamber forgot, but anyway, and then he goes to

779
00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:54,800
Speaker 1: a holster's weapon and finger on the trigger and blows

780
00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:57,799
Speaker 1: off his kneecap basically or part you know, shoots himself

781
00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:02,239
Speaker 1: in the knee. They include kind of incident here as

782
00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:07,040
Speaker 1: a school shooting. Okay, so now if you have a

783
00:48:07,040 --> 00:48:09,640
Speaker 1: professional law enforcement person who shows up at a school

784
00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:11,359
Speaker 1: and happens to have an a D, which, by the way,

785
00:48:11,440 --> 00:48:16,040
Speaker 1: is pretty terrible. I mean in terms of safety issues.

786
00:48:16,040 --> 00:48:17,840
Speaker 1: I mean, you really an a D at a school.

787
00:48:18,080 --> 00:48:20,480
Speaker 1: You're there to teach safety anyway, Yeah, it was it,

788
00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:22,120
Speaker 1: Mike says, it was a D. A guy. Yeah, that's

789
00:48:22,120 --> 00:48:24,000
Speaker 1: where I thought. I remember that video very well. I

790
00:48:24,040 --> 00:48:25,920
Speaker 1: think that guy tried to sue, By the way, I

791
00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:27,520
Speaker 1: forget who he. I think he tried to sue the

792
00:48:27,560 --> 00:48:33,000
Speaker 1: school or something didn't work. But they're including accidental discharges.

793
00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:36,120
Speaker 1: They're including people getting hit with BB guns. They're including

794
00:48:36,640 --> 00:48:40,880
Speaker 1: gang fights on Some universities are sprawling huge campuses. So

795
00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:43,080
Speaker 1: if anyone at a at a you know, the university

796
00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:46,799
Speaker 1: of huge, huge state school somewhere, pulls out a gun

797
00:48:46,800 --> 00:48:50,000
Speaker 1: and shoots at somebody, even if it's like a robbery

798
00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:51,360
Speaker 1: in the middle of the night, they call that a

799
00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:54,279
Speaker 1: school shooting. And that's how you get to twenty two.

800
00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:56,120
Speaker 1: If you want to know how many shootings there are

801
00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:58,040
Speaker 1: that you would think of a school shootings this year

802
00:48:58,080 --> 00:49:01,560
Speaker 1: where somebody has gone into a cool to kill students.

803
00:49:02,080 --> 00:49:04,239
Speaker 1: I think the number is either three or four. I

804
00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:08,120
Speaker 1: think it's four for the year for too many. I

805
00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:13,560
Speaker 1: get it, but four is not twenty two. So while I, oh,

806
00:49:13,600 --> 00:49:16,200
Speaker 1: that's right, because they're not really journalists on this issue,

807
00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:21,040
Speaker 1: they are activists. They're openly pushing an agenda and for

808
00:49:21,120 --> 00:49:23,319
Speaker 1: a place like CNN. As I said, they put this

809
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:26,480
Speaker 1: out from their official Twitter account, this line number or

810
00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:29,279
Speaker 1: this very misleading maybe put it that way. Number of

811
00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:31,600
Speaker 1: twenty two just goes to show you that they're not

812
00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:33,359
Speaker 1: willing to just deal with the facts as they are.

813
00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:37,600
Speaker 1: They have they feel the need to stack the deck

814
00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:41,719
Speaker 1: on this one for policy change purposes, or they just

815
00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:45,279
Speaker 1: want or the expression additional ammunition to go after the

816
00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:48,880
Speaker 1: n r A. We want to make the number twenty

817
00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:50,680
Speaker 1: two so we can really hammer the n r A.

818
00:49:51,760 --> 00:49:54,680
Speaker 1: Would also note that they have to be aware of

819
00:49:54,719 --> 00:49:57,399
Speaker 1: the fact that the n r a's donations from its

820
00:49:57,400 --> 00:50:00,520
Speaker 1: membership go up when the media completely trash Is the

821
00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:03,680
Speaker 1: n r A right that it's a fundraising bonanza for

822
00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:07,200
Speaker 1: the n r A When Democrat politicians like Pelosi and

823
00:50:07,239 --> 00:50:11,200
Speaker 1: others are out there talking about how the problem here

824
00:50:11,239 --> 00:50:15,680
Speaker 1: is the n r A. They have to know that too, right,

825
00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:18,759
Speaker 1: But you know, I'd be okay with c N and

826
00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:20,960
Speaker 1: saying we are a we are a d n C

827
00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:26,120
Speaker 1: media operation. Basically, I'd be okay with that in terms

828
00:50:26,160 --> 00:50:27,879
Speaker 1: of at least there's on I mean, I think it's

829
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:31,000
Speaker 1: bad and pushing bad ideas, but least there's honesty. No,

830
00:50:31,120 --> 00:50:34,560
Speaker 1: they act like we're we're big j journalists. But they'll

831
00:50:34,600 --> 00:50:36,960
Speaker 1: then run the twenty two number. It's a lie. We've

832
00:50:36,960 --> 00:50:38,440
Speaker 1: already been here by the way after park when they

833
00:50:38,440 --> 00:50:42,120
Speaker 1: were lying about the number. Again, they just keep doing

834
00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:45,600
Speaker 1: it and it camp be an accident. But they do

835
00:50:45,680 --> 00:50:47,799
Speaker 1: the whole apple banana thing when they want to tell

836
00:50:47,840 --> 00:50:49,879
Speaker 1: us about how they're objective and just the facts right,

837
00:50:50,560 --> 00:50:53,399
Speaker 1: it's preposterous. Uh, there's not gonna be any gun control

838
00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:54,960
Speaker 1: legislation that comes out of us because no one can

839
00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:57,400
Speaker 1: think of any gun control legislation that would have stopped

840
00:50:57,400 --> 00:51:00,800
Speaker 1: what happened in Texas. That's a pretty straight for discussion.

841
00:51:01,239 --> 00:51:04,480
Speaker 1: And there already is a lot of gun legislation on

842
00:51:04,600 --> 00:51:08,800
Speaker 1: the books. And this kid, this little murderer, violated many

843
00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:13,520
Speaker 1: many laws in another law. I'm not gonna do anything.

844
00:51:15,239 --> 00:51:17,040
Speaker 1: This is actually not that hard when you break it

845
00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:19,920
Speaker 1: down to the reality of what's going on. All right,

846
00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:21,279
Speaker 1: I've got a lot more on this. I know I

847
00:51:21,360 --> 00:51:24,960
Speaker 1: got deeperness than I thought. We'll be right back, team.

848
00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:27,839
Speaker 1: Stay with me. If you're hiring, I know what you're

849
00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:30,120
Speaker 1: going through right now because I've been going through it

850
00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:32,640
Speaker 1: in the last few weeks, and I know there's a

851
00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:34,680
Speaker 1: lot of different ways you can go about this. You

852
00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:37,200
Speaker 1: can hope to go word of mouth, you can post

853
00:51:37,239 --> 00:51:40,400
Speaker 1: something in your local grocery store bulletin board, or you

854
00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:43,359
Speaker 1: could get the best candidates the fastest way. That's what

855
00:51:43,520 --> 00:51:48,879
Speaker 1: I did. I've hired now multiple candidates, specifically from zip

856
00:51:48,880 --> 00:51:52,839
Speaker 1: recruiter dot com, and that's after going through dozens and

857
00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:57,200
Speaker 1: dozens of excellent resumes. I now have colleagues that I'll

858
00:51:57,239 --> 00:52:01,680
Speaker 1: be working with from the zip cruider pool. Zip recruiter

859
00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:03,840
Speaker 1: dot com knows what you're looking for and knew what

860
00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:06,200
Speaker 1: I was looking for, and it brought me the right people.

00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:17,280
Speaker 1: Try it out good to zip recruiter dot com slash buck.

Speaker 1: That's zip recruiter dot com slash buck. You're gonna find

865
00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:23,720
Speaker 1: great candidates for those jobs, just like I did. Zip

866
00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:37,200
Speaker 1: recruiter dot Com slash buck. This is not an appropriate

867
00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:40,080
Speaker 1: call for an investigation by this president. This is a

868
00:52:40,239 --> 00:52:44,840
Speaker 1: very autocratic, dictator style move on behalf of this president

869
00:52:44,880 --> 00:52:50,640
Speaker 1: who believes that any government agency within his purview can

870
00:52:50,719 --> 00:52:53,960
Speaker 1: be used against political opponents. He should go live in

871
00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:57,120
Speaker 1: a dictatorship, which it clearly is something that I believe

872
00:52:57,200 --> 00:53:00,000
Speaker 1: that he really wants. The way that he has conducted

873
00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:06,640
Speaker 1: himself in public underscores just how inept, clueless, out of

874
00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:12,400
Speaker 1: the loop, and uninformed he is about how the FBI functions.

875
00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:19,280
Speaker 1: Oh man, that's the CNN analyst Rick Cardona. Oh my god,

876
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:22,440
Speaker 1: you want to talk about uninformed? How does you just know?

877
00:53:22,640 --> 00:53:24,759
Speaker 1: I mean they put her on TV all the time,

878
00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:29,160
Speaker 1: Anderson Cooper, Jake Tapper, very respectful of her. It doesn't

879
00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:32,880
Speaker 1: know anything. I mean, just just a could be a

880
00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:35,279
Speaker 1: very nice lady. I'm sure she you know, sure has

881
00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:40,239
Speaker 1: some lovely qualities. A complete and utter ignoramus, but kind

882
00:53:40,239 --> 00:53:44,000
Speaker 1: of sort of sounds sometimes like maybe she knows something

883
00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:46,880
Speaker 1: because of all the words strung together, like, you know,

884
00:53:47,360 --> 00:53:54,120
Speaker 1: go live in a dictatorship? What how who They're gonna

885
00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:58,520
Speaker 1: go on TV with this stuff? It's amazing who you

886
00:53:58,520 --> 00:54:00,840
Speaker 1: don't I always tell you that that the big problem

887
00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:03,920
Speaker 1: with over at CNN is that they refused to accept

888
00:54:03,920 --> 00:54:06,040
Speaker 1: the very obvious reality that they're everybody is left wing.

889
00:54:06,080 --> 00:54:11,160
Speaker 1: As MSNBC, Kelly and Conway took him a task on

890
00:54:11,280 --> 00:54:16,520
Speaker 1: this one, Kelly and well done, Placlibate. You're trying to

891
00:54:16,560 --> 00:54:18,560
Speaker 1: break news here and it's not working. I'm sorry. Did

892
00:54:18,560 --> 00:54:20,239
Speaker 1: you just say something that a lot of people on

893
00:54:20,280 --> 00:54:21,919
Speaker 1: your side of the isle are not willing to say.

894
00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:25,960
Speaker 1: I'm not on the did you vote for Hillary Clinton

895
00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:29,920
Speaker 1: and Donald Trump? The president? I left that spot blank

896
00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:34,640
Speaker 1: on the ballot that day. But it's not appropriate. Voted

897
00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:37,400
Speaker 1: for No, It's all appropriate to ask me things, but

898
00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:41,520
Speaker 1: not people. It's a it's that appropriate. It's good. Brad

899
00:54:41,600 --> 00:54:46,440
Speaker 1: Stelter doesn't vote. Brian Stoulter doesn't have political opinions. His

900
00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:51,839
Speaker 1: objective down the middle. Sarah's journalists, whoa, whoa, whoa, that's

901
00:54:51,840 --> 00:54:57,719
Speaker 1: out alive. I mean to see kidding. Stelter is a Democrat,

902
00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:02,600
Speaker 1: Tapper is a Democrat, Cooper is a Democrat, Lemon is

903
00:55:02,640 --> 00:55:06,759
Speaker 1: a Democrat. Burnett is a Democrat. I mean, am I

904
00:55:06,920 --> 00:55:13,520
Speaker 1: proved me wrong? Exactly? I mean, is anyone and forget

905
00:55:13,520 --> 00:55:15,920
Speaker 1: about even just being Democrats? Do we think that a

906
00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:19,359
Speaker 1: single one of them, if they were not in there,

907
00:55:19,520 --> 00:55:23,160
Speaker 1: I don't vote mode would have voted for Trump. I mean,

908
00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:27,279
Speaker 1: come on, right, this this is a fiction. This all.

909
00:55:27,520 --> 00:55:29,680
Speaker 1: I'm just a journalist. I don't have a pageant. I

910
00:55:29,680 --> 00:55:33,360
Speaker 1: don't think about things. I just present the facts. I

911
00:55:33,440 --> 00:55:36,680
Speaker 1: love that who'd you vote for? Probably whoa whoa whoa Letty.

912
00:55:36,840 --> 00:55:42,640
Speaker 1: That's really personal. It's really personal. Oh my gosh, that

913
00:55:42,680 --> 00:55:47,960
Speaker 1: guy who good times? Good times. That's the question I

914
00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:50,040
Speaker 1: always want to ask them. I mean, you know, they'll

915
00:55:50,080 --> 00:55:52,280
Speaker 1: never they'll never have me on these shows anymore, obviously

916
00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:56,840
Speaker 1: because they know what they're in for. Um questions, Yeah, exactly,

917
00:55:57,680 --> 00:56:02,360
Speaker 1: But I just want to know, did really think like

918
00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:04,800
Speaker 1: like does does Anerson Cooper? Does anyone ever get a

919
00:56:04,880 --> 00:56:07,920
Speaker 1: chance to ask him? Hey, do you realize you're you're

920
00:56:07,960 --> 00:56:10,560
Speaker 1: opposed to Trump, like you're you're actively working against the

921
00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:14,000
Speaker 1: Trump administration, That your editorial and your story choice, your tone,

922
00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:17,400
Speaker 1: you're all of it is anti Trump? Or do you

923
00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:22,840
Speaker 1: really think that people watching you don't know that? I

924
00:56:22,880 --> 00:56:24,759
Speaker 1: think that, you know, the journalists asked questions all the time.

925
00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:26,560
Speaker 1: Why don't we get to ask journalists these questions? They

926
00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:28,879
Speaker 1: can ask me the question, what do you think? Well, Buck, well,

927
00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:31,840
Speaker 1: what do you think our support Trump? Yeah, doesn't mean

928
00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:33,959
Speaker 1: I think everything knows great. Doesn't mean I support every

929
00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:36,480
Speaker 1: aspect of his policy or everything that he does. But yeah,

930
00:56:36,560 --> 00:56:39,520
Speaker 1: supports Trump. And then I give you my thoughts as

931
00:56:39,520 --> 00:56:42,920
Speaker 1: somebody's sports Trump. Okay, well, why can't they do that?

932
00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:47,799
Speaker 1: We're just churnalists. Excuse me, sir, You're a way out

933
00:56:47,880 --> 00:56:51,280
Speaker 1: of line with this. We're not democrats at the CNN.

934
00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:56,240
Speaker 1: We're just hn just facts, apples and bananas and stuff

935
00:56:57,880 --> 00:57:00,759
Speaker 1: and stuff, that's for sure. Wow, we have a lot.

936
00:57:00,800 --> 00:57:02,680
Speaker 1: I was talking about China. Let's get some policy for

937
00:57:02,680 --> 00:57:04,319
Speaker 1: a moment here. I've got a little silly we'll get

938
00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:09,799
Speaker 1: into that in just a few Well, the framework went

939
00:57:09,880 --> 00:57:15,839
Speaker 1: into a number of potential legislative changes. It's a very

940
00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:19,560
Speaker 1: all encompassing thing. But for the moment, it's kind of

941
00:57:19,600 --> 00:57:23,040
Speaker 1: at the forty thousand foot level. This is not a

942
00:57:23,120 --> 00:57:26,560
Speaker 1: definitive agreement. This is a what we hope will be

943
00:57:26,600 --> 00:57:30,640
Speaker 1: a path forward. If it doesn't work, the tariffs will

944
00:57:30,680 --> 00:57:36,280
Speaker 1: go into effect. So nothing's been lost at all. Trump

945
00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:41,800
Speaker 1: and China. I've been telling you guys. Everyone else is

946
00:57:42,160 --> 00:57:45,000
Speaker 1: running around, running around saying I shouldn't say everyone else.

947
00:57:45,040 --> 00:57:47,440
Speaker 1: A lot of people run around saying, oh my gosh,

948
00:57:47,480 --> 00:57:50,400
Speaker 1: the trade wars coming. We're all it's gonna destroy the

949
00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:54,240
Speaker 1: stock market. Say goodbye your four oh one k. Everyone's

950
00:57:54,320 --> 00:57:57,720
Speaker 1: all upset about it. And what a good old bucks say?

951
00:57:58,200 --> 00:58:00,280
Speaker 1: What did what a buck tell you? Other then it's

952
00:58:00,280 --> 00:58:05,040
Speaker 1: all in the reflexes. Uh buck told you that sure enough,

953
00:58:06,320 --> 00:58:09,480
Speaker 1: this would get worked out, or at least it wouldn't

954
00:58:09,480 --> 00:58:13,120
Speaker 1: go in the direction of just a senseless trade war

955
00:58:13,240 --> 00:58:18,960
Speaker 1: without any attempt at negotiation. China has been doing bad

956
00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:21,400
Speaker 1: stuff for a long time when it comes to intellectual

957
00:58:21,440 --> 00:58:24,200
Speaker 1: property theft, when it comes to the terrorists that it

958
00:58:24,280 --> 00:58:29,320
Speaker 1: puts in place, and has managed a fantastic amount of

959
00:58:29,400 --> 00:58:32,560
Speaker 1: growth in a very short period of time for its people.

960
00:58:33,560 --> 00:58:37,280
Speaker 1: But it has been doing so getting a not a

961
00:58:37,360 --> 00:58:39,720
Speaker 1: free ride, but riding a little bit on the coattails

962
00:58:39,800 --> 00:58:44,160
Speaker 1: of other countries, notably US. Right, and we now have

963
00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:46,200
Speaker 1: an administration that sees us for what it is, and

964
00:58:46,240 --> 00:58:49,360
Speaker 1: it's saying, well, hold on a second, maybe maybe we

965
00:58:49,360 --> 00:58:52,200
Speaker 1: should revisit some of these issues. Maybe we should look

966
00:58:52,240 --> 00:58:56,960
Speaker 1: at the trade disparity between our two countries. And you know,

967
00:58:57,000 --> 00:58:59,240
Speaker 1: Trump has been saying all along since the early days

968
00:58:59,240 --> 00:59:01,440
Speaker 1: of the campaign, and is killing us on trade. They're

969
00:59:01,480 --> 00:59:04,479
Speaker 1: they're beating us so badly on trade. Now, I don't

970
00:59:04,520 --> 00:59:07,280
Speaker 1: think that a trade deficit is as zero samas Trump

971
00:59:07,280 --> 00:59:11,480
Speaker 1: makes it sound. Sometimes. I understand that it's not. But overall,

972
00:59:11,560 --> 00:59:14,600
Speaker 1: there are certainly ways to get a better trade deal. Right.

973
00:59:14,680 --> 00:59:16,840
Speaker 1: It's it's kind of like the climate change folks. I

974
00:59:16,840 --> 00:59:19,400
Speaker 1: know this sounds like a digression, but it's not. They

975
00:59:19,440 --> 00:59:22,120
Speaker 1: act like, whatever the temperature is, that's the perfect temperature.

976
00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:25,560
Speaker 1: Well maybe the world, like, you know, half a half

977
00:59:25,560 --> 00:59:30,960
Speaker 1: a degree celsius warmer is a little bit better. You know,

978
00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:34,520
Speaker 1: maybe things actually improve a bit. There's still all the

979
00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:37,200
Speaker 1: bad things. Well, yeah, sure, you might have an increase

980
00:59:37,480 --> 00:59:41,280
Speaker 1: in microbial growth in some inhabited parts of the world.

981
00:59:41,320 --> 00:59:44,439
Speaker 1: You may have greater problem with malaria. You also probably

982
00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:49,320
Speaker 1: have a longer growing season. Right, these are not static issues.

983
00:59:49,480 --> 00:59:52,440
Speaker 1: These are these are goalposts that do move in fact.

984
00:59:52,520 --> 00:59:56,360
Speaker 1: And with China, what's to say that the trade regime

985
00:59:56,400 --> 00:59:58,600
Speaker 1: that we've had in place visa be this country that

986
00:59:59,240 --> 01:00:05,240
Speaker 1: doesn't gage in a bit of predatory state capitalism here

987
01:00:05,280 --> 01:00:07,000
Speaker 1: and there. We know about it, right, We're all very

988
01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:09,320
Speaker 1: aware of it. Who's to say that the deal can't

989
01:00:09,360 --> 01:00:15,240
Speaker 1: be better? In fact, isn't it nonsensical to assume that

990
01:00:15,280 --> 01:00:18,040
Speaker 1: whatever our relationship with China has been, that that is

991
01:00:18,080 --> 01:00:22,120
Speaker 1: in fact the best way for it to be. No.

992
01:00:22,320 --> 01:00:24,520
Speaker 1: Trump has come after this and said, hold on a second,

993
01:00:24,600 --> 01:00:28,160
Speaker 1: let's look at this, let's take a different approach. And

994
01:00:28,320 --> 01:00:30,680
Speaker 1: people are saying, oh, trade war trade When I said no, no,

995
01:00:31,240 --> 01:00:32,600
Speaker 1: you can go back and listen to the shows. You know,

996
01:00:32,640 --> 01:00:35,520
Speaker 1: I said, I think that Trump's onto something here and

997
01:00:35,600 --> 01:00:37,400
Speaker 1: a lot. And this is where I break with some

998
01:00:37,440 --> 01:00:39,800
Speaker 1: of my very some very smart friends of mine who

999
01:00:39,800 --> 01:00:43,480
Speaker 1: are conservatives in the media world, who are so they said, no, no,

1000
01:00:43,520 --> 01:00:47,200
Speaker 1: on this one, Trump is just you know, he's out

1001
01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:49,600
Speaker 1: of his depth. He doesn't understand the trade deals whatever.

1002
01:00:49,680 --> 01:00:55,480
Speaker 1: Oh well, as of right now, we're hearing that there

1003
01:00:55,520 --> 01:00:58,320
Speaker 1: could be a very constructive conversation between Trump and China

1004
01:00:58,400 --> 01:01:03,800
Speaker 1: on a whole bunch of things, including agricultural, farm and

1005
01:01:03,840 --> 01:01:07,320
Speaker 1: agricultural products. Trump tweeted out over the weekend that quote

1006
01:01:07,400 --> 01:01:11,440
Speaker 1: China has agreed to by massive amounts of additional farm

1007
01:01:11,480 --> 01:01:14,080
Speaker 1: and agricultural products would be one of the best things

1008
01:01:14,080 --> 01:01:18,880
Speaker 1: to happen to our farmers in many years. Uh and

1009
01:01:18,960 --> 01:01:22,000
Speaker 1: also said on China barriers and tarroiffs to come down

1010
01:01:22,040 --> 01:01:27,120
Speaker 1: for the first time. So what if he is opening

1011
01:01:27,200 --> 01:01:30,320
Speaker 1: up some of those four markets more to our you know,

1012
01:01:30,360 --> 01:01:33,040
Speaker 1: agricultural output. Right, what are some of the benefits we

1013
01:01:33,080 --> 01:01:36,640
Speaker 1: could see here? It's at least worth of conversation and

1014
01:01:37,800 --> 01:01:40,840
Speaker 1: more to the point, just as we see with the

1015
01:01:40,880 --> 01:01:44,160
Speaker 1: way that people criticize him on North Korea, they're not

1016
01:01:44,360 --> 01:01:47,880
Speaker 1: they're not willing. The Trump critics are not willing to

1017
01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:53,000
Speaker 1: see how his approach to China, never mind plays out,

1018
01:01:53,120 --> 01:01:56,600
Speaker 1: how it even begins. Really, the moment that he talks

1019
01:01:56,600 --> 01:01:59,959
Speaker 1: about China and trade, you have all these this whole

1020
01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:02,240
Speaker 1: echo chamber effect out there of oh, he doesn't know

1021
01:02:02,240 --> 01:02:04,800
Speaker 1: what he's doing. It's gonna be terrible, he's gonna destroy things,

1022
01:02:04,840 --> 01:02:10,360
Speaker 1: and ah, no, he's not. He's just not. And don't

1023
01:02:10,360 --> 01:02:12,720
Speaker 1: you see a recurring theme here? You know, whether you

1024
01:02:12,720 --> 01:02:15,000
Speaker 1: think trade with China is particularly interesting or not, although

1025
01:02:15,000 --> 01:02:18,000
Speaker 1: I would note it's it's an important up relationship that

1026
01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:21,600
Speaker 1: it really does affect our economy. So whatever business you're in,

1027
01:02:21,720 --> 01:02:25,200
Speaker 1: or you know, whatever whatever savings account you have at

1028
01:02:25,200 --> 01:02:27,560
Speaker 1: the bank, I mean, what's going on with China is

1029
01:02:27,560 --> 01:02:31,880
Speaker 1: important at a level that we can't really ignore. Economically speaking,

1030
01:02:31,880 --> 01:02:34,480
Speaker 1: we can't totally ignore it. They buy a lot of

1031
01:02:34,560 --> 01:02:37,760
Speaker 1: US treasuries, as we know, and we have a whole

1032
01:02:37,760 --> 01:02:40,000
Speaker 1: relationship with them where they're they're buying up treasuries and

1033
01:02:40,040 --> 01:02:42,400
Speaker 1: buying up treasuries, and we're selling them a lot of

1034
01:02:42,440 --> 01:02:47,160
Speaker 1: our debt via that that process. But it's just another

1035
01:02:47,200 --> 01:02:51,240
Speaker 1: reminder that you have this conventional wisdom machinery in place

1036
01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:57,480
Speaker 1: on immigration, on North Korea, on Iran, on trade with

1037
01:02:57,600 --> 01:03:02,160
Speaker 1: China that is not only I think, going to be

1038
01:03:02,200 --> 01:03:05,360
Speaker 1: proven wrong in the long term, but is is really

1039
01:03:05,800 --> 01:03:11,160
Speaker 1: impatient and immature in the short term. They act like

1040
01:03:11,280 --> 01:03:13,560
Speaker 1: they go way beyond It's one thing to say I

1041
01:03:13,640 --> 01:03:17,360
Speaker 1: don't like what the end result of what Trump's doing

1042
01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:20,800
Speaker 1: on any of those issues is going to be, which

1043
01:03:20,880 --> 01:03:25,120
Speaker 1: I would not. Also require some degree of prognostication. You

1044
01:03:25,160 --> 01:03:26,520
Speaker 1: have to be able to tell what the future is

1045
01:03:26,560 --> 01:03:31,360
Speaker 1: to know because not the future right pretty straightforward. But

1046
01:03:32,760 --> 01:03:35,439
Speaker 1: they won't even look at what's happening in the short

1047
01:03:35,560 --> 01:03:37,439
Speaker 1: term and be honest about it. They act like it's

1048
01:03:37,440 --> 01:03:41,240
Speaker 1: already a failure. They speak about these things, they speak

1049
01:03:41,240 --> 01:03:44,040
Speaker 1: about Trump's approach to China on trade as though it's

1050
01:03:44,080 --> 01:03:47,720
Speaker 1: already a disaster, not that it could be in the future,

1051
01:03:47,760 --> 01:03:51,360
Speaker 1: but oh my gosh, look what he's done. And now

1052
01:03:51,400 --> 01:03:55,120
Speaker 1: we see that there's the possibility that not only is

1053
01:03:55,160 --> 01:03:58,400
Speaker 1: not a disaster, but could be yet a yet another

1054
01:03:59,160 --> 01:04:04,440
Speaker 1: economic boon for America. I saw today that the people

1055
01:04:05,120 --> 01:04:07,200
Speaker 1: I'm trying to remember what the exact statistic was, but

1056
01:04:07,920 --> 01:04:12,920
Speaker 1: people are more optimistic, more or less about getting a

1057
01:04:13,000 --> 01:04:16,720
Speaker 1: good job today than they have been in a very

1058
01:04:16,800 --> 01:04:21,360
Speaker 1: long time. And the sense of prosperity that the American

1059
01:04:21,360 --> 01:04:24,160
Speaker 1: people have, this is why it just drowns out all

1060
01:04:24,200 --> 01:04:27,520
Speaker 1: the hating, all the from the left about Trump. It

1061
01:04:27,560 --> 01:04:30,280
Speaker 1: doesn't drown out hate in this country. Spent two minutes

1062
01:04:30,320 --> 01:04:32,960
Speaker 1: on social media talking about Trump, and you'll see how

1063
01:04:33,080 --> 01:04:37,440
Speaker 1: nasty everybody can be. But it this is what they

1064
01:04:37,480 --> 01:04:40,720
Speaker 1: didn't count on. It's one thing to have to struggle

1065
01:04:40,760 --> 01:04:45,720
Speaker 1: against Trump's messaging and his counterpunching media is still really

1066
01:04:46,840 --> 01:04:50,760
Speaker 1: twisting up and knots about that. It's another thing to

1067
01:04:51,240 --> 01:04:57,320
Speaker 1: have no answer, no effective countermeasure to Trump's economic results.

1068
01:04:58,000 --> 01:05:01,120
Speaker 1: My friends, The mid terms loom large in all of this.

1069
01:05:01,960 --> 01:05:04,320
Speaker 1: If things continue on the trajectory they're on right now.

1070
01:05:04,840 --> 01:05:08,800
Speaker 1: Not only is the blue wave a myth, you could

1071
01:05:08,800 --> 01:05:12,959
Speaker 1: actually see Republicans gain seats, mark my words, and gain

1072
01:05:13,080 --> 01:05:15,880
Speaker 1: them we come back. I want to talk about starbucks

1073
01:05:15,880 --> 01:05:21,800
Speaker 1: new newest bathroom policy and how it could result in

1074
01:05:21,880 --> 01:05:27,680
Speaker 1: smelliness for all. Stay with me and Starbucks. It's a

1075
01:05:27,800 --> 01:05:30,400
Speaker 1: story I've been following closely t him. As you know,

1076
01:05:31,200 --> 01:05:35,080
Speaker 1: there were some allegations of racism a while ago, and

1077
01:05:35,520 --> 01:05:41,000
Speaker 1: Starbucks responded with, well everything that it could at the time,

1078
01:05:41,120 --> 01:05:43,280
Speaker 1: right it said they're gonna They said they're gonna hold

1079
01:05:43,400 --> 01:05:49,280
Speaker 1: a a day of diversity training for every single one

1080
01:05:49,280 --> 01:05:54,320
Speaker 1: of their tens of thousands of employees across the country.

1081
01:05:54,720 --> 01:05:59,600
Speaker 1: They also said that they were very sorry about the

1082
01:05:59,600 --> 01:06:03,240
Speaker 1: the in students in question. But there's a new policy

1083
01:06:03,320 --> 01:06:06,160
Speaker 1: now too. Who wants to guess, because you remember the

1084
01:06:06,200 --> 01:06:09,160
Speaker 1: problem with Starbucks was that they said that some people

1085
01:06:09,200 --> 01:06:11,720
Speaker 1: were allowed to use the bathroom without a purchase and

1086
01:06:11,760 --> 01:06:15,520
Speaker 1: others were not, and the claim was that this was

1087
01:06:15,600 --> 01:06:20,280
Speaker 1: based on race. Well, let me just put this out there.

1088
01:06:20,360 --> 01:06:27,120
Speaker 1: Does anybody right now think that Starbucks is gonna just

1089
01:06:27,240 --> 01:06:30,360
Speaker 1: let that continue on without taking action? No, of course

1090
01:06:30,400 --> 01:06:34,840
Speaker 1: not so. Starbucks decided that they are going to now

1091
01:06:34,960 --> 01:06:42,360
Speaker 1: make all Starbucks is open to people without having to eat,

1092
01:06:43,840 --> 01:06:47,600
Speaker 1: uh drink or buy any well, without having to buy

1093
01:06:47,680 --> 01:06:52,640
Speaker 1: any food or drink. Quote, any person who enters our spaces,

1094
01:06:52,720 --> 01:06:58,360
Speaker 1: including patios, cafes, and restrooms, regardless of whether they make

1095
01:06:58,400 --> 01:07:04,240
Speaker 1: a purchase, is can sidered a customer. So yeah, yeah,

1096
01:07:04,280 --> 01:07:06,600
Speaker 1: eight thousand stores, by the way, are gonna be closed

1097
01:07:07,280 --> 01:07:12,080
Speaker 1: on May for racial not even diversity training, racial bias

1098
01:07:12,200 --> 01:07:16,160
Speaker 1: training now here. Here's what he said. He said, we

1099
01:07:16,160 --> 01:07:18,040
Speaker 1: don't want to become a public bathroom, but we're gonna

1100
01:07:18,040 --> 01:07:19,760
Speaker 1: make the right decision a percent of the time and

1101
01:07:19,800 --> 01:07:22,720
Speaker 1: give people the key because we don't want anyone at

1102
01:07:22,720 --> 01:07:24,720
Speaker 1: star Wucks to feel as if we are not giving

1103
01:07:24,720 --> 01:07:27,680
Speaker 1: access to that bathroom because you are less than we

1104
01:07:27,720 --> 01:07:30,560
Speaker 1: want you to be more than. This is Schultz, the CEO.

1105
01:07:31,440 --> 01:07:34,200
Speaker 1: So let me tell you, Yeah, Starucks Chairman, Howard Schultz,

1106
01:07:34,280 --> 01:07:35,960
Speaker 1: let me tell you something about this. They're gonna be

1107
01:07:36,000 --> 01:07:39,480
Speaker 1: the public bathroom now, folks. This is gonna be one

1108
01:07:39,480 --> 01:07:43,680
Speaker 1: of these liberal policies that some C suite group, you know,

1109
01:07:43,760 --> 01:07:47,360
Speaker 1: the the chairman and a bunch of his buddies are like, yeah,

1110
01:07:47,520 --> 01:07:50,080
Speaker 1: we have a solution and they get to feel like

1111
01:07:50,160 --> 01:07:52,560
Speaker 1: it's a smart thing. When there are cocktail parties that

1112
01:07:52,560 --> 01:07:56,960
Speaker 1: can seem very progressive, very forward thinking on the issue

1113
01:07:57,000 --> 01:08:01,080
Speaker 1: of bathroom usage, which, as you know, on are other circumstances,

1114
01:08:01,840 --> 01:08:05,440
Speaker 1: can become quite a contentious thing, right, male female bathroom

1115
01:08:05,600 --> 01:08:09,200
Speaker 1: issue and all the rest of it. Uh, But here

1116
01:08:10,000 --> 01:08:14,280
Speaker 1: what we see is a situation where the Starbucks bathroom

1117
01:08:14,480 --> 01:08:18,280
Speaker 1: is going to become the closest thing in existence today.

1118
01:08:18,320 --> 01:08:20,840
Speaker 1: Do you just give it some time, the closest thing

1119
01:08:20,880 --> 01:08:26,200
Speaker 1: that exists today to a rest stop circuit on the

1120
01:08:26,240 --> 01:08:30,559
Speaker 1: inner State. Now, a lot of you listening are you know,

1121
01:08:30,640 --> 01:08:35,679
Speaker 1: within let's say, ten to fifteen years of my age,

1122
01:08:36,520 --> 01:08:39,040
Speaker 1: and so you know what I'm talking about here. With

1123
01:08:39,640 --> 01:08:43,439
Speaker 1: when your parents would take you on long trips, you know,

1124
01:08:43,479 --> 01:08:46,280
Speaker 1: and this is before we all had smartphones and even

1125
01:08:46,360 --> 01:08:48,360
Speaker 1: game boys and all that stuff. There's nothing to do,

1126
01:08:49,439 --> 01:08:51,320
Speaker 1: but you'd have to stop. If it was a really

1127
01:08:51,360 --> 01:08:53,400
Speaker 1: long drive, you'd have to stop and go to one

1128
01:08:53,439 --> 01:08:58,640
Speaker 1: of these designated rest stops along on the East Coast here,

1129
01:08:58,680 --> 01:09:01,080
Speaker 1: which goes all the way from Maine to Florida. It's

1130
01:09:01,080 --> 01:09:03,640
Speaker 1: basically the Holy East Coast. You go to one of

1131
01:09:03,640 --> 01:09:06,920
Speaker 1: these rest stops, and I remember, I mean some of

1132
01:09:06,920 --> 01:09:12,880
Speaker 1: the bathrooms there you go into and they were so gross, right,

1133
01:09:12,960 --> 01:09:18,800
Speaker 1: they were so putrid and filthy and unkempt, uh that

1134
01:09:19,880 --> 01:09:21,800
Speaker 1: you didn't want to even touch it with your the

1135
01:09:21,840 --> 01:09:24,880
Speaker 1: bottoms of your shoes. And then you had to make

1136
01:09:24,920 --> 01:09:26,880
Speaker 1: that I mean as and as a like a teenager,

1137
01:09:27,400 --> 01:09:32,120
Speaker 1: you know, you're like probably not necessarily the best personal hygiene. Right,

1138
01:09:32,160 --> 01:09:34,360
Speaker 1: Let's just be honest, folks, Right, teenagers can be a

1139
01:09:34,360 --> 01:09:38,280
Speaker 1: little be a little uh on the sloppy side. I

1140
01:09:38,280 --> 01:09:41,160
Speaker 1: know I was as a teenager. I mean I was clean,

1141
01:09:41,360 --> 01:09:45,120
Speaker 1: but you know I could have been cleaner. You go

1142
01:09:45,160 --> 01:09:48,360
Speaker 1: into that bathroom, though, and you don't want to touch anything,

1143
01:09:48,400 --> 01:09:50,000
Speaker 1: and then you gotta think yourself, do you even want

1144
01:09:50,000 --> 01:09:51,640
Speaker 1: to touch the door handle? And you do that thing

1145
01:09:51,640 --> 01:09:54,240
Speaker 1: where you grab your shirt, you know, and you use

1146
01:09:54,280 --> 01:09:57,360
Speaker 1: your shirt as a barrier for your hand on the

1147
01:09:57,400 --> 01:09:59,720
Speaker 1: door handle. But then if you're like me and you

1148
01:09:59,720 --> 01:10:02,120
Speaker 1: get O c D, You're like, oh gosh, but now

1149
01:10:02,160 --> 01:10:04,439
Speaker 1: whatever is on that door handles on the inside of

1150
01:10:04,479 --> 01:10:07,800
Speaker 1: my shirt, which is touching my you know, my belly,

1151
01:10:07,840 --> 01:10:09,720
Speaker 1: and now I'm gonna get some weird skin rash on

1152
01:10:09,760 --> 01:10:12,360
Speaker 1: my belly. So there's really no way around it. But

1153
01:10:12,479 --> 01:10:18,160
Speaker 1: the point here is that those rest stops were we're disgusting, uh,

1154
01:10:18,280 --> 01:10:20,599
Speaker 1: And there was a real like you know there here,

1155
01:10:20,640 --> 01:10:22,760
Speaker 1: like a couple of flies buzzing around. It's just the

1156
01:10:22,760 --> 01:10:26,280
Speaker 1: whole thing because no one cared. This is not gonna

1157
01:10:26,280 --> 01:10:29,040
Speaker 1: happen at every Starbucks, not gonna happen at Starbucks in

1158
01:10:30,040 --> 01:10:35,040
Speaker 1: nice neighborhoods necessarily, but in high traffic and high traffic areas,

1159
01:10:35,680 --> 01:10:38,200
Speaker 1: people are gonna know they're just allowed to go in

1160
01:10:38,240 --> 01:10:41,519
Speaker 1: and use the Starbucks bathroom. And that means and by

1161
01:10:41,560 --> 01:10:43,720
Speaker 1: the way, I think that there's also this is just

1162
01:10:43,800 --> 01:10:46,360
Speaker 1: my opinion, so I could be wrong, but how often

1163
01:10:46,400 --> 01:10:49,559
Speaker 1: is that really true? That I'm wrong? But when people

1164
01:10:49,600 --> 01:10:54,679
Speaker 1: are at least paying as customers, they have a different

1165
01:10:55,160 --> 01:10:58,600
Speaker 1: relationship with the establishment. I just think that there's a

1166
01:10:58,640 --> 01:11:03,200
Speaker 1: when when you create that connection of capitalism in a place,

1167
01:11:03,280 --> 01:11:05,280
Speaker 1: you're just less likely I'm not saying you won't, but

1168
01:11:05,320 --> 01:11:07,800
Speaker 1: you're less likely to trash the join and you know,

1169
01:11:09,040 --> 01:11:11,320
Speaker 1: you know, when you're in the bathroom, you're less likely

1170
01:11:11,360 --> 01:11:15,080
Speaker 1: to spray all over the place like an elephant, you

1171
01:11:15,120 --> 01:11:16,720
Speaker 1: know what I mean, You're less likely to just not

1172
01:11:17,280 --> 01:11:20,640
Speaker 1: I'm talking when you're washing your hands, don't be gross,

1173
01:11:20,680 --> 01:11:25,560
Speaker 1: but you know you're You're just more likely to be uh,

1174
01:11:25,680 --> 01:11:27,360
Speaker 1: a little more respectful to the place, whereas if you

1175
01:11:27,439 --> 01:11:29,040
Speaker 1: just walk in and use a restaurant, I feel like

1176
01:11:29,040 --> 01:11:32,240
Speaker 1: you're less likely to be clean about so you know,

1177
01:11:32,280 --> 01:11:35,800
Speaker 1: clean about your your habits. But then you also have

1178
01:11:35,840 --> 01:11:37,880
Speaker 1: the issue of now people are just gonna use Starbucks

1179
01:11:37,960 --> 01:11:41,360
Speaker 1: forget about the bathrooms. Now people are gonna use Starbucks

1180
01:11:41,439 --> 01:11:43,679
Speaker 1: as there. I don't know if you know this company

1181
01:11:43,720 --> 01:11:46,720
Speaker 1: we work, but you can rent office space why. I mean,

1182
01:11:46,720 --> 01:11:48,599
Speaker 1: it's a nice company, but why would you rent office

1183
01:11:48,600 --> 01:11:50,720
Speaker 1: space If you've got a local Starbucks, you can now

1184
01:11:50,800 --> 01:11:54,240
Speaker 1: just show up there and set up all day, no

1185
01:11:54,320 --> 01:11:57,479
Speaker 1: expectation that there has to be commerce going on. Thanks

1186
01:11:57,479 --> 01:12:00,400
Speaker 1: to the chairman of Starbucks, Howard Schultz, you don't have

1187
01:12:00,439 --> 01:12:06,439
Speaker 1: to buy your Mocha frapp soy thing. You can just

1188
01:12:06,439 --> 01:12:09,720
Speaker 1: sit there and hang out. You no longer have any

1189
01:12:09,760 --> 01:12:16,040
Speaker 1: obligation whatsoever to purchase anything to to engage in commerce.

1190
01:12:16,920 --> 01:12:20,439
Speaker 1: You can just be a squatter. Now. I see this

1191
01:12:20,520 --> 01:12:24,280
Speaker 1: is where you you get liberals. Very prominent progressive company

1192
01:12:24,400 --> 01:12:26,679
Speaker 1: run by liberal lots of liberals at the top ranks

1193
01:12:26,680 --> 01:12:29,280
Speaker 1: of this thing. Probably all liberals, I would guess, but

1194
01:12:29,320 --> 01:12:32,000
Speaker 1: I don't know that for a fact. And they have

1195
01:12:32,120 --> 01:12:34,439
Speaker 1: this idea that and it sounds good to them. They figure, Hey,

1196
01:12:34,479 --> 01:12:36,320
Speaker 1: you know, why not give this a shot. Let anybody

1197
01:12:36,400 --> 01:12:38,559
Speaker 1: use the bathroom, let anyone stay in our place. They

1198
01:12:38,560 --> 01:12:43,240
Speaker 1: don't have to buy anything at all. And it sounds

1199
01:12:43,280 --> 01:12:45,599
Speaker 1: really good, right, especially when you feel like you've been

1200
01:12:45,640 --> 01:12:48,599
Speaker 1: in a in a in a situation where there could

1201
01:12:48,640 --> 01:12:52,479
Speaker 1: be some bias against you or you know people that

1202
01:12:52,640 --> 01:12:57,040
Speaker 1: rather people think you've engaged in bias. Pardon me, so

1203
01:12:57,080 --> 01:13:01,000
Speaker 1: I switched that around. Um so deals with that problem.

1204
01:13:01,040 --> 01:13:02,479
Speaker 1: But now you've got the problem, how do you run

1205
01:13:02,479 --> 01:13:06,960
Speaker 1: a business when you're not actually conducting business necessarily? And

1206
01:13:07,040 --> 01:13:09,840
Speaker 1: I think that this is gonna fall by the wayside.

1207
01:13:09,920 --> 01:13:12,280
Speaker 1: And more to the point, this is gonna mean that

1208
01:13:12,360 --> 01:13:15,880
Speaker 1: some Starbucks, particularly the bathrooms, are going to be the

1209
01:13:15,920 --> 01:13:22,200
Speaker 1: equivalent of a porta potty at a construction site in

1210
01:13:22,640 --> 01:13:26,599
Speaker 1: the southwestern United States in mid July that nobody has

1211
01:13:27,160 --> 01:13:30,000
Speaker 1: done anything about for like many months. That's that's what

1212
01:13:30,080 --> 01:13:32,640
Speaker 1: it's gonna be like in Sunday Starbucks bathrooms. Very unpleasant,

1213
01:13:33,439 --> 01:13:36,920
Speaker 1: very very unpleasant. I'm not thinking back the most unpleasant

1214
01:13:37,360 --> 01:13:40,000
Speaker 1: facilities I have ever used, which considering some of the

1215
01:13:40,040 --> 01:13:43,400
Speaker 1: places I've been overseas, it's kind of amazing. I'm still

1216
01:13:43,400 --> 01:13:45,920
Speaker 1: here to talk to you actually, all right, um, we're

1217
01:13:45,920 --> 01:13:49,400
Speaker 1: gonna come back and talk about a really interesting map

1218
01:13:49,439 --> 01:13:53,360
Speaker 1: of what states hate what foods the most. We got

1219
01:13:53,400 --> 01:13:56,360
Speaker 1: a Hillary Clinton running around. We should pay for Hillary

1220
01:13:56,360 --> 01:13:58,760
Speaker 1: to go give speeches and we we should be all

1221
01:13:58,800 --> 01:14:03,559
Speaker 1: about Hillary running round promoting the cult of Hillary, which

1222
01:14:03,600 --> 01:14:07,120
Speaker 1: is dwindling with each and every day. So we got that,

1223
01:14:07,240 --> 01:14:09,920
Speaker 1: and then my review of the movie Black Panther, which

1224
01:14:09,920 --> 01:14:11,760
Speaker 1: I promise will not take too long but will be

1225
01:14:11,800 --> 01:14:15,200
Speaker 1: worth your worth your time. Uh, that are more coming up.

1226
01:14:16,240 --> 01:14:19,639
Speaker 1: I love dogs. You love dogs, but you gotta make

1227
01:14:19,680 --> 01:14:21,320
Speaker 1: sure that you keep an eye on what they're up to.

1228
01:14:21,320 --> 01:14:23,840
Speaker 1: You gotta take care of those little furry fellows, because

1229
01:14:23,840 --> 01:14:26,200
Speaker 1: if you don't, you could have a problem on your hands.

1230
01:14:26,240 --> 01:14:29,160
Speaker 1: And digging is one of those issues. My friends. You

1231
01:14:29,280 --> 01:14:31,479
Speaker 1: got a yard and it's fenced in, that's great, But

1232
01:14:31,600 --> 01:14:34,240
Speaker 1: what happens if your dog, after a long day of

1233
01:14:34,280 --> 01:14:36,840
Speaker 1: being cooped up inside, or just because it's got a

1234
01:14:36,840 --> 01:14:39,280
Speaker 1: little bolt of energy, tries to go under that fence,

1235
01:14:39,479 --> 01:14:42,600
Speaker 1: or what if predators like foxes or raccoons try to

1236
01:14:42,640 --> 01:14:45,160
Speaker 1: come under your fence. I've got a solution for you

1237
01:14:45,200 --> 01:14:48,960

1246
01:15:14,200 --> 01:15:17,720
Speaker 1: our three of the Buck Sexton Show. Team Man, it's

1247
01:15:17,880 --> 01:15:20,560
Speaker 1: flying by today. I gotta say it's a bright and

1248
01:15:20,640 --> 01:15:23,000
Speaker 1: sunny day in the swamps, so that makes things a

1249
01:15:23,000 --> 01:15:27,080
Speaker 1: whole lot easier. It was just raining cats and dogs.

1250
01:15:27,479 --> 01:15:30,800
Speaker 1: You know. They don't really know where that expression comes from.

1251
01:15:31,360 --> 01:15:35,679
Speaker 1: The most widely accepted explanation of raining cats and dogs

1252
01:15:36,200 --> 01:15:42,760
Speaker 1: is that in London circa nineteen century, the houses in

1253
01:15:42,800 --> 01:15:48,840
Speaker 1: the poorer areas were thatched roof houses, and when they

1254
01:15:48,840 --> 01:15:51,840
Speaker 1: would get wet, dogs and cats could walk across the

1255
01:15:51,880 --> 01:15:55,439
Speaker 1: tops of the of the roofs because they were so

1256
01:15:55,520 --> 01:15:58,040
Speaker 1: close together. But when we get wet, sometimes they would

1257
01:15:58,040 --> 01:16:00,760
Speaker 1: walk on part of the thatched right the grass that

1258
01:16:00,800 --> 01:16:03,640
Speaker 1: they would use for roofing, and and it would let

1259
01:16:03,720 --> 01:16:07,280
Speaker 1: them fall down. This sounds way too cute to be real,

1260
01:16:07,439 --> 01:16:10,120
Speaker 1: but they don't have an actual better explanation for it

1261
01:16:10,200 --> 01:16:13,479
Speaker 1: than that. So so here we are. Um but but

1262
01:16:13,600 --> 01:16:18,479
Speaker 1: back to uh the swamp. I've got some news for you.

1263
01:16:18,560 --> 01:16:20,479
Speaker 1: This is not important, by the way, and I keep

1264
01:16:20,479 --> 01:16:23,519
Speaker 1: holding off on my big announcement because I have to

1265
01:16:24,800 --> 01:16:26,720
Speaker 1: What can I tell you, folks? You know I've I've

1266
01:16:26,760 --> 01:16:29,559
Speaker 1: got I've got bosses. Uh buck Buck is a little

1267
01:16:29,600 --> 01:16:31,840
Speaker 1: has to be a little corporate. Sometimes it's not because

1268
01:16:31,880 --> 01:16:34,160
Speaker 1: I mean to put it off, but we're just waiting

1269
01:16:34,200 --> 01:16:37,639
Speaker 1: to get some things aligned on our announcement and it's

1270
01:16:37,640 --> 01:16:40,280
Speaker 1: coming soon though coming very soon, I'm told this week,

1271
01:16:40,360 --> 01:16:45,559
Speaker 1: but I can't be certain about that. But as an

1272
01:16:45,560 --> 01:16:48,639
Speaker 1: acide of that, what did I have no idea how

1273
01:16:48,680 --> 01:16:52,040
Speaker 1: they get this information? And this is not an important story,

1274
01:16:52,040 --> 01:16:53,479
Speaker 1: but it's a fun story. So I just want to

1275
01:16:53,520 --> 01:16:55,920
Speaker 1: switch gears. We're gonna talk about Hillary coming up in

1276
01:16:55,960 --> 01:16:58,920
Speaker 1: just a little bit. And then because she's out there still,

1277
01:16:59,400 --> 01:17:03,400
Speaker 1: that's right. Um. And also Black Panther, the movie which

1278
01:17:03,439 --> 01:17:05,960
Speaker 1: I saw. I will give you my review of it.

1279
01:17:05,960 --> 01:17:08,120
Speaker 1: It will not take along, and then we'll get into

1280
01:17:08,160 --> 01:17:11,680
Speaker 1: some roll call. But I found this chart and it

1281
01:17:11,760 --> 01:17:15,360
Speaker 1: comes from Mental Flaws. It could be complete nonsense. I

1282
01:17:15,360 --> 01:17:19,280
Speaker 1: don't know how they could possibly do this, but this

1283
01:17:19,439 --> 01:17:23,200
Speaker 1: is a um a shared This is what they say

1284
01:17:23,240 --> 01:17:25,160
Speaker 1: on mental flaws. A shared hatred of something has a

1285
01:17:25,160 --> 01:17:28,679
Speaker 1: funny way of bringing people together. That's the idea behind Hater,

1286
01:17:29,120 --> 01:17:32,920
Speaker 1: a dating app launched earlier this year. The app might

1287
01:17:33,320 --> 01:17:37,080
Speaker 1: match users based on their mutual disdain for certain pop stars,

1288
01:17:37,160 --> 01:17:40,799
Speaker 1: fashion styles, or something. Many of us have strong opinions

1289
01:17:40,800 --> 01:17:44,920
Speaker 1: about food. According to the Hoffey and post, Hater put

1290
01:17:44,960 --> 01:17:50,679
Speaker 1: together this map of every states most hated food, using

1291
01:17:50,760 --> 01:17:54,960
Speaker 1: data collected from it's more than six hundred thousand users.

1292
01:17:55,800 --> 01:17:58,760
Speaker 1: This was really interesting, folks. I gotta tell you, I

1293
01:17:58,800 --> 01:18:03,120
Speaker 1: don't have time to go through through absolutely all of them,

1294
01:18:03,160 --> 01:18:06,720
Speaker 1: but some of them were I find totally believable. At

1295
01:18:06,760 --> 01:18:09,280
Speaker 1: others deserve a high five. First of all, let's get

1296
01:18:09,360 --> 01:18:12,000
Speaker 1: right to it. So remember this is state by state

1297
01:18:12,439 --> 01:18:18,120
Speaker 1: the highest concentration of food hatred based on a sample

1298
01:18:18,200 --> 01:18:22,600
Speaker 1: size of six hundred thousand people across the country. In Texas,

1299
01:18:23,439 --> 01:18:25,400
Speaker 1: you guys know what time it is. You guys know

1300
01:18:25,479 --> 01:18:29,400
Speaker 1: what's up. Steak cooked well done. And this is the

1301
01:18:29,439 --> 01:18:32,240
Speaker 1: one place where I cannot defend President Trump at all.

1302
01:18:32,320 --> 01:18:37,040
Speaker 1: I can't deflect, I can't explain it. You can't do

1303
01:18:37,120 --> 01:18:40,840
Speaker 1: your steaks well done with ketchup. I'm sorry, we're not barbarians,

1304
01:18:41,439 --> 01:18:45,799
Speaker 1: but Texas knows that they refused to go with steaks

1305
01:18:45,800 --> 01:18:48,840
Speaker 1: well done. Although, not to be completely left out of

1306
01:18:48,840 --> 01:18:54,000
Speaker 1: the conversation, Oklahoma hates veggie burgers, and you know what, Oklahoma,

1307
01:18:54,360 --> 01:18:56,240
Speaker 1: I'll put a point for you up on the board

1308
01:18:56,360 --> 01:19:00,920
Speaker 1: based on that one. In Florida they say liquor rish,

1309
01:19:01,040 --> 01:19:03,600
Speaker 1: which I didn't even know anyone still ate liquorice, So

1310
01:19:03,640 --> 01:19:08,840
Speaker 1: that just strikes me as completely and utterly bizarre. Michigan

1311
01:19:09,560 --> 01:19:14,920
Speaker 1: hates cold pizza. What's I mean? I don't know why

1312
01:19:15,000 --> 01:19:18,520
Speaker 1: that's so bad. Cold pizzas is can be actually quite delicious.

1313
01:19:18,520 --> 01:19:24,200
Speaker 1: So Michigan, you get, you get minus points on that one. California,

1314
01:19:24,320 --> 01:19:27,639
Speaker 1: I think some of you can guess what food does

1315
01:19:27,760 --> 01:19:33,360
Speaker 1: California hate the most? Think political thing? Political Chick fil a.

1316
01:19:34,120 --> 01:19:37,040
Speaker 1: I know right. Oh, I'm sorry you hate a company

1317
01:19:37,120 --> 01:19:39,439
Speaker 1: that treats its workers really well, has built an amazing

1318
01:19:39,479 --> 01:19:44,559
Speaker 1: American franchise and serves people incredibly tasty chicken sandwiches. And

1319
01:19:44,680 --> 01:19:46,920
Speaker 1: I actually had Chick fil A in my pre bea

1320
01:19:47,040 --> 01:19:49,080
Speaker 1: well before I knew that I was ciliac. So I

1321
01:19:49,160 --> 01:19:52,160
Speaker 1: have tasted the glory that is Chick fil A, and

1322
01:19:52,280 --> 01:19:56,360
Speaker 1: it is it is quite amazing. In the state of Nevada,

1323
01:19:56,760 --> 01:20:02,479
Speaker 1: they hate Lacroix, which is is a fruit flavored but

1324
01:20:02,680 --> 01:20:05,960
Speaker 1: sugarless soda drink that I will not lie to you.

1325
01:20:06,640 --> 01:20:10,200
Speaker 1: I have cases of uh back home in New York City.

1326
01:20:10,320 --> 01:20:13,360
Speaker 1: I think it's quite delicious. So Nevada, I don't know,

1327
01:20:13,400 --> 01:20:16,800
Speaker 1: maybe you just maybe there's too much Lacroix going on there,

1328
01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:20,040
Speaker 1: but I think it's it's quite excellent. We've got some

1329
01:20:20,080 --> 01:20:24,440
Speaker 1: other ones here. Oh, New York City hates ranch dressing

1330
01:20:24,600 --> 01:20:29,080
Speaker 1: on pizzas. For New York State, I should say, Um,

1331
01:20:29,200 --> 01:20:30,920
Speaker 1: first of all, I didn't know that was a thing

1332
01:20:31,000 --> 01:20:34,639
Speaker 1: that people really knew about or cared about, but that's

1333
01:20:34,640 --> 01:20:39,320
Speaker 1: what they say in New York. I think that's quite strange. Um.

1334
01:20:39,360 --> 01:20:41,639
Speaker 1: This is the one that really just upsets me, though,

1335
01:20:41,720 --> 01:20:45,519
Speaker 1: and this is uh Massachusetts. Oh no, I'm sorry, this

1336
01:20:45,600 --> 01:20:48,320
Speaker 1: is Connecticut, not Massachusetts. I can't see on this chart

1337
01:20:48,840 --> 01:20:52,800
Speaker 1: mayonnaise on fries. There's some things about me, team, I

1338
01:20:52,840 --> 01:20:54,640
Speaker 1: tell you the truth. There's some things about me that

1339
01:20:54,680 --> 01:20:58,880
Speaker 1: make me seem not particularly American, and this is one

1340
01:20:58,920 --> 01:21:02,320
Speaker 1: of them. I think mayonnaise is way better with good

1341
01:21:02,400 --> 01:21:06,519
Speaker 1: crispy French fries than catch up. I know, I know, Producer, Mike,

1342
01:21:06,600 --> 01:21:10,560
Speaker 1: don't don't give me the look. It's there's nothing I

1343
01:21:10,600 --> 01:21:13,559
Speaker 1: can do about it. Man, It's just good. Mayo with

1344
01:21:13,600 --> 01:21:17,040
Speaker 1: French fries is amazing. Yes, it's very very French. I

1345
01:21:17,080 --> 01:21:21,120
Speaker 1: get it. But I I now do actually go to

1346
01:21:21,240 --> 01:21:26,439
Speaker 1: the extent of ordering ordering my French fries with a

1347
01:21:26,479 --> 01:21:28,840
Speaker 1: side of mayo, so I can't pretend to hate on

1348
01:21:28,880 --> 01:21:33,519
Speaker 1: that one. Um. Who oh, Virginia, I'm sorry, West Virginia

1349
01:21:33,600 --> 01:21:39,080
Speaker 1: here hates tofu, which is fine, except I feel like

1350
01:21:39,120 --> 01:21:43,559
Speaker 1: that's about twenty years behind the food trend because tofu

1351
01:21:43,760 --> 01:21:47,200
Speaker 1: is not a particularly new thing. Um, and it's not

1352
01:21:47,240 --> 01:21:50,600
Speaker 1: a particularly popular thing these days. But hey, I'm with you,

1353
01:21:50,640 --> 01:21:53,880
Speaker 1: as Virginia. Tofu is disgusting and people shouldn't eat it

1354
01:21:54,760 --> 01:21:56,760
Speaker 1: unless they like it. In which case, what am I

1355
01:21:56,800 --> 01:22:02,120
Speaker 1: even talking about? Uh? Then you have in yeah, Montana,

1356
01:22:02,240 --> 01:22:07,559
Speaker 1: and this is very America pumpkin spice anything, that's right.

1357
01:22:07,600 --> 01:22:13,519
Speaker 1: The state of Montana just hates pumpkin spice, which I

1358
01:22:13,520 --> 01:22:16,280
Speaker 1: can understand. It's pumpkin spice, of all the flavors you

1359
01:22:16,320 --> 01:22:20,599
Speaker 1: can think of, has to be among the most fruit

1360
01:22:20,640 --> 01:22:27,639
Speaker 1: fruit and bougie, So totally understandable, uh for me. And

1361
01:22:27,680 --> 01:22:31,400
Speaker 1: then you have I think this is I can't tell

1362
01:22:31,439 --> 01:22:33,919
Speaker 1: if the map is pot No, No, it's pointing at Washington,

1363
01:22:34,000 --> 01:22:37,479
Speaker 1: d C. Turkey bacon. Why do they hate turkey bag?

1364
01:22:37,600 --> 01:22:41,719
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously it's inferior to bacon, but in a pinch,

1365
01:22:42,680 --> 01:22:45,519
Speaker 1: you know, it's like Canadian bacon, also inferior to bacon,

1366
01:22:46,280 --> 01:22:51,280
Speaker 1: but better than no bacon, right, and better than tofu bacon.

1367
01:22:51,320 --> 01:22:56,320
Speaker 1: For example, Pennsylvania. That's right, all my Pennsylvania listeners, what

1368
01:22:56,360 --> 01:23:02,480
Speaker 1: do you think you hate? Not cheese whiz Chai lattes?

1369
01:23:03,000 --> 01:23:06,599
Speaker 1: You are chai latte haters, And you know what I'm

1370
01:23:06,640 --> 01:23:09,240
Speaker 1: gonna go. I'm gonna go with that's okay. Lats are

1371
01:23:09,320 --> 01:23:11,519
Speaker 1: quite delicious until you find out that they have like

1372
01:23:11,560 --> 01:23:14,559
Speaker 1: forty grams of sugar in them, and well, assuming that

1373
01:23:14,600 --> 01:23:16,479
Speaker 1: you get the sweeten kind some of you probably drink.

1374
01:23:16,760 --> 01:23:19,680
Speaker 1: But why do you drink unsweetened chi latte's? That just

1375
01:23:19,680 --> 01:23:22,680
Speaker 1: seems un American to be Uh. Then I get to

1376
01:23:23,240 --> 01:23:29,479
Speaker 1: New Mexico, which hates chicken nuggets. New Mexico, seriously, get

1377
01:23:29,520 --> 01:23:32,360
Speaker 1: it together. What is wrong with you? Chicken nuggets are amazing.

1378
01:23:32,880 --> 01:23:35,040
Speaker 1: This isn't even a There's not even a discussion to

1379
01:23:35,080 --> 01:23:37,040
Speaker 1: be had here. I don't know what's going on in

1380
01:23:37,120 --> 01:23:41,040
Speaker 1: New Mexico. I feel like there's a problem. My single favorite, though,

1381
01:23:41,760 --> 01:23:43,519
Speaker 1: and I really did want to get to this, my

1382
01:23:44,080 --> 01:23:49,960
Speaker 1: single favorite of all of the options here, gotta tell you,

1383
01:23:50,920 --> 01:23:56,040
Speaker 1: um was the state of Louisiana. You get congratulations and

1384
01:23:56,040 --> 01:23:59,000
Speaker 1: had a boy in a high five. State of Louisiana

1385
01:23:59,200 --> 01:24:05,559
Speaker 1: hates cookies with raisins. Totally true. By the way, Oh oh,

1386
01:24:05,640 --> 01:24:07,720
Speaker 1: you show me a cookie with raisins in it and

1387
01:24:07,760 --> 01:24:09,880
Speaker 1: you're like, oh, buck, but tasted it's so good. I'll say, oh,

1388
01:24:09,920 --> 01:24:13,800
Speaker 1: excuse me, excuse me? Would chocolate chips not be better?

1389
01:24:14,360 --> 01:24:17,200
Speaker 1: You know the answers, Yes, you know the answer. Don't

1390
01:24:17,240 --> 01:24:20,800
Speaker 1: even pretend Mike and John they're with me on this one.

1391
01:24:20,840 --> 01:24:26,600
Speaker 1: The raisins are, Raisins are gross. Kentucky doesn't like hummus.

1392
01:24:27,560 --> 01:24:31,519
Speaker 1: I like hummus, although it's it's um kind of sneaky

1393
01:24:31,520 --> 01:24:34,880
Speaker 1: with how fatty it is. Oh, of course. Washington State,

1394
01:24:35,080 --> 01:24:39,160
Speaker 1: because we're where Starbucks comes from, we're so fancy. Washington

1395
01:24:39,320 --> 01:24:44,360
Speaker 1: State doesn't like curig k cups because they just like

1396
01:24:44,400 --> 01:24:47,559
Speaker 1: their French press. They're so they're just all about being

1397
01:24:47,600 --> 01:24:52,160
Speaker 1: coffee purists. Please please, Washington State. All right, I don't

1398
01:24:52,160 --> 01:24:54,120
Speaker 1: need to hear about how you're you're too fancy for

1399
01:24:54,160 --> 01:24:57,000
Speaker 1: your cake cups up there, but makes sense you'd be

1400
01:24:57,160 --> 01:25:00,760
Speaker 1: you'd be opposed to that one and trying to see

1401
01:25:00,760 --> 01:25:04,200
Speaker 1: who else is on here? Uh? Some people hate In Minnesota,

1402
01:25:04,240 --> 01:25:07,040
Speaker 1: they hate beans. Is that just because you don't want

1403
01:25:07,040 --> 01:25:13,679
Speaker 1: to be offensive Minnesota? A Uh? In Iowa they hate Keenwa.

1404
01:25:14,080 --> 01:25:19,000
Speaker 1: What's wrong with Keemwa? I like Keenwa, I disagree with

1405
01:25:19,080 --> 01:25:22,639
Speaker 1: I disagree with that one. And in uh, what else

1406
01:25:22,680 --> 01:25:26,160
Speaker 1: do we have her? Main? They hate Asian fusion. That's

1407
01:25:26,200 --> 01:25:28,840
Speaker 1: just because you don't have any main. Yeah, that's right,

1408
01:25:28,880 --> 01:25:31,880
Speaker 1: I said it, deal with it. Uh, and and I'll

1409
01:25:31,920 --> 01:25:34,000
Speaker 1: leave I'll leave it there. But that's your that's your

1410
01:25:34,080 --> 01:25:38,200
Speaker 1: smattering of food hatreds across the country. This I thought,

1411
01:25:38,200 --> 01:25:41,360
Speaker 1: this is really interesting. Oh New Jersey hates gas station

1412
01:25:41,439 --> 01:25:46,720
Speaker 1: wine because it's too fancy. Oh take that, and we

1413
01:25:46,760 --> 01:25:50,200
Speaker 1: got Hillary Clinton up next. Stay with me switching gears

01:26:47,080 --> 01:26:49,840
Speaker 1: Just in case you missed it, Hillary Clinton over the

1431
01:26:49,880 --> 01:26:54,679
Speaker 1: weekend gave a speech at Yale's class day and here

1432
01:26:54,800 --> 01:26:58,040
Speaker 1: was the big joke in front of the assembled grads,

1433
01:26:58,120 --> 01:27:06,759
Speaker 1: to be a Russian. If you can't beat them, join them.

1434
01:27:06,800 --> 01:27:11,240
Speaker 1: If you can't beat them, join them. Yeah, Russian hat

1435
01:27:12,000 --> 01:27:16,760
Speaker 1: because Russia collusion. It gets worse, though, because Hillary is

1436
01:27:16,920 --> 01:27:21,920
Speaker 1: speaking to these young future leaders of America. If you

1437
01:27:21,960 --> 01:27:24,599
Speaker 1: believe all that crap about where you go to college

1438
01:27:24,600 --> 01:27:27,360
Speaker 1: and how it matters for the future of you know,

1439
01:27:27,479 --> 01:27:32,479
Speaker 1: your success or not. Hillary, though, wanted to play kate

1440
01:27:32,600 --> 01:27:35,800
Speaker 1: their political prejudices as much as she possibly could. No

1441
01:27:35,920 --> 01:27:40,760
Speaker 1: surprise there, thrilled for all of you, even the three

1442
01:27:40,800 --> 01:27:43,559
Speaker 1: of you who live in Michigan and didn't request your

1443
01:27:43,600 --> 01:27:48,479
Speaker 1: absentee ballots in time. No, this may seem like a

1444
01:27:48,520 --> 01:27:52,800
Speaker 1: relatively minor point, but once again, it's this idea that

1445
01:27:52,840 --> 01:27:57,680
Speaker 1: Democrats are obsessed with that they really won somehow, or

1446
01:27:57,760 --> 01:28:01,240
Speaker 1: really should have won somehow, that the American people were

1447
01:28:01,280 --> 01:28:05,120
Speaker 1: with Hillary, that it was either stolen from her, or

1448
01:28:05,160 --> 01:28:07,960
Speaker 1: it was the popular votes fault, or it was Russia's fault,

1449
01:28:08,400 --> 01:28:11,320
Speaker 1: or it was James Comby's fault, or maybe it was

1450
01:28:11,439 --> 01:28:15,439
Speaker 1: somehow al Gore's fault for not making a strong enough

1451
01:28:15,479 --> 01:28:20,240
Speaker 1: case that it was the Supreme Court's fault in two thousand.

1452
01:28:20,800 --> 01:28:24,439
Speaker 1: I think you catch my drift. Somehow. There's always an

1453
01:28:24,439 --> 01:28:27,559
Speaker 1: excuse for a loss by a Democrat when it comes

1454
01:28:27,600 --> 01:28:32,160
Speaker 1: to a presidential election, and Hillary likes people to know

1455
01:28:32,400 --> 01:28:35,639
Speaker 1: that she's going to continue on with that tradition. And

1456
01:28:35,680 --> 01:28:39,320
Speaker 1: by the way, she also let everybody know that this

1457
01:28:39,400 --> 01:28:42,720
Speaker 1: isn't an act. This is still a big deal for

1458
01:28:42,760 --> 01:28:47,280
Speaker 1: her personally. I'm not over it. We know, Hillary, Oh,

1459
01:28:47,360 --> 01:28:51,160
Speaker 1: we know. Indeed, you are not over it. I'm not

1460
01:28:51,320 --> 01:28:55,880
Speaker 1: over it. That's not surprising. I don't think there's anybody

1461
01:28:55,920 --> 01:28:59,880
Speaker 1: who would believe for a second that you were over it,

1462
01:29:00,080 --> 01:29:04,600
Speaker 1: even if you said I'm over it. I'm totally past it.

1463
01:29:05,000 --> 01:29:09,400
Speaker 1: I'm done. I'm just gonna drink shardonnay and chop a qua.

1464
01:29:10,760 --> 01:29:14,280
Speaker 1: I still think about the election. I still regret the

1465
01:29:14,320 --> 01:29:17,960
Speaker 1: mistakes I made. Does she really, though, do we believe

1466
01:29:17,960 --> 01:29:21,200
Speaker 1: that she regrets the mistakes that she made or does

1467
01:29:21,280 --> 01:29:26,840
Speaker 1: she have yet? So many close at hand excuses as

1468
01:29:26,880 --> 01:29:30,559
Speaker 1: to why she did not in fact win the second

1469
01:29:30,640 --> 01:29:37,439
Speaker 1: presidential election for which she was considered inevitable. Seems quite

1470
01:29:37,600 --> 01:29:41,760
Speaker 1: strange to me that we are to believe that there

1471
01:29:41,840 --> 01:29:46,280
Speaker 1: is a reason other than Hillary's ineptitude as a politician.

1472
01:29:46,840 --> 01:29:50,040
Speaker 1: This is somebody with no actual record of accomplishment, just

1473
01:29:50,160 --> 01:29:54,960
Speaker 1: really a record of compiling a record. It was all

1474
01:29:55,000 --> 01:29:58,160
Speaker 1: built on resume, but the resume was built on the

1475
01:29:58,200 --> 01:30:02,320
Speaker 1: resumes of other people, most notably that of her husband.

1476
01:30:03,040 --> 01:30:06,960
Speaker 1: She went from first Lady to senator, to secretary of State,

1477
01:30:07,360 --> 01:30:10,439
Speaker 1: to or to presidential candidate, to secretary of State to

1478
01:30:10,600 --> 01:30:14,880
Speaker 1: presidential candidate. Nowhere in that whole process do you have

1479
01:30:15,040 --> 01:30:19,960
Speaker 1: somebody who manages on her own to beat the odds

1480
01:30:20,000 --> 01:30:23,120
Speaker 1: in a fair contest or show in any way that

1481
01:30:23,280 --> 01:30:25,920
Speaker 1: there is real excellence. Oh eight, you may say, buck,

1482
01:30:25,920 --> 01:30:28,760
Speaker 1: what about the Senate race. She was running against Giuliani,

1483
01:30:29,000 --> 01:30:33,440
Speaker 1: as you will recall, and Juliani, because of a cancer diagnosis,

1484
01:30:33,439 --> 01:30:37,040
Speaker 1: had to back out, so she effectively won that one

1485
01:30:37,120 --> 01:30:41,360
Speaker 1: without having much of a fight either. But understand that

1486
01:30:41,400 --> 01:30:45,200
Speaker 1: her qualifications were that she had been the first lady,

1487
01:30:45,280 --> 01:30:49,840
Speaker 1: and I feel like if Milania, as lovely and kind

1488
01:30:49,920 --> 01:30:52,640
Speaker 1: as she is, were to say that she wanted to

1489
01:30:52,680 --> 01:30:56,200
Speaker 1: be a senator, a lot of Democrats would have quite

1490
01:30:56,240 --> 01:30:59,160
Speaker 1: a problem with that, But just the notion that Hilary

1491
01:30:59,320 --> 01:31:03,160
Speaker 1: somehow makes responsibility for all this I find objection able

1492
01:31:03,280 --> 01:31:06,599
Speaker 1: because to me, at least, it is so very very

1493
01:31:06,600 --> 01:31:11,600
Speaker 1: clear that she takes absolutely no responsibility in this process,

1494
01:31:11,600 --> 01:31:16,080
Speaker 1: that she flatly and completely rejects the notion that she's

1495
01:31:16,160 --> 01:31:19,799
Speaker 1: not in fact the president of the United States because

1496
01:31:20,080 --> 01:31:24,040
Speaker 1: of anything that has to do with her. And just

1497
01:31:24,080 --> 01:31:26,320
Speaker 1: when you think, well, buck, what about that speech she gave,

1498
01:31:26,400 --> 01:31:30,439
Speaker 1: she says she took responsibility. How was my fault? Uh?

1499
01:31:30,600 --> 01:31:33,439
Speaker 1: Then she went on and as you can imagine, she

1500
01:31:33,479 --> 01:31:36,519
Speaker 1: starts out by putting on a furry Russian hat to

1501
01:31:36,560 --> 01:31:39,160
Speaker 1: make a joke about Trump and if you can't beat them,

1502
01:31:39,240 --> 01:31:42,320
Speaker 1: join them, And then speaking to these Yale grads who

1503
01:31:42,439 --> 01:31:46,360
Speaker 1: have been indoctrinated in leftism for four years at least,

1504
01:31:47,000 --> 01:31:49,440
Speaker 1: she is going to give them a taste of Oh

1505
01:31:49,479 --> 01:31:52,160
Speaker 1: this is all about you know where this is going

1506
01:31:52,640 --> 01:31:57,439
Speaker 1: defending our democracy. I still think though, that understanding what

1507
01:31:57,600 --> 01:32:01,000
Speaker 1: happened in such a weird and wild election in American

1508
01:32:01,080 --> 01:32:05,120
Speaker 1: history will help us defend our democracy in the future.

1509
01:32:07,040 --> 01:32:10,320
Speaker 1: This has become a mindless talking point. I guess it's

1510
01:32:10,320 --> 01:32:13,719
Speaker 1: been a mindless talking point all along. But for all

1511
01:32:13,920 --> 01:32:16,680
Speaker 1: the discussion we hear about how we need to know

1512
01:32:16,760 --> 01:32:18,960
Speaker 1: what happened with Russia so we can stop it the

1513
01:32:19,000 --> 01:32:22,080
Speaker 1: next time around, what have we learned that's new in

1514
01:32:22,080 --> 01:32:25,960
Speaker 1: this process? They say, Russia set up social media accounts

1515
01:32:25,960 --> 01:32:31,679
Speaker 1: that push certain ideas, so the Russians push propaganda using

1516
01:32:31,720 --> 01:32:35,400
Speaker 1: social media. A lot of people push propaganda using social media.

1517
01:32:35,479 --> 01:32:38,760
Speaker 1: Unless you're gonna cut the Internet off from or America's

1518
01:32:38,800 --> 01:32:40,840
Speaker 1: Internet off from the rest of the world. This is

1519
01:32:40,880 --> 01:32:44,000
Speaker 1: not something that anyone has even begun to come up

1520
01:32:44,040 --> 01:32:47,479
Speaker 1: with an idea about how to really stop. And for

1521
01:32:47,560 --> 01:32:50,160
Speaker 1: all the yelling about Russian fake news, there are a

1522
01:32:50,200 --> 01:32:52,880
Speaker 1: lot of us who said around saying, well, there are

1523
01:32:53,000 --> 01:32:57,599
Speaker 1: major American news media organizations that engage in fake news.

1524
01:32:58,479 --> 01:33:00,880
Speaker 1: But this is just a facade right the whole Oh,

1525
01:33:01,000 --> 01:33:03,920
Speaker 1: we have to figure out what went wrong with Russia

1526
01:33:04,000 --> 01:33:06,360
Speaker 1: to stop the next time or whatever. This is just

1527
01:33:06,400 --> 01:33:09,160
Speaker 1: a way to keep talking about it and make it

1528
01:33:09,280 --> 01:33:15,200
Speaker 1: sound virtuous when all this is being sore losers. Hillary

1529
01:33:15,240 --> 01:33:18,200
Speaker 1: is a sore loser, the ultimate sore loser. In fact,

1530
01:33:19,280 --> 01:33:24,000
Speaker 1: I hate Moses and a lot of Democrats go along

1531
01:33:24,040 --> 01:33:27,960
Speaker 1: with her because they'd rather cling to the belief that

1532
01:33:28,040 --> 01:33:30,800
Speaker 1: they are not just on the right side of history,

1533
01:33:30,800 --> 01:33:34,120
Speaker 1: as Obama says, but on the right side of the law,

1534
01:33:34,439 --> 01:33:36,960
Speaker 1: on the right side of constitutional norms, on the right

1535
01:33:37,000 --> 01:33:41,799
Speaker 1: side of all of these very important, profound sounding issues,

1536
01:33:42,080 --> 01:33:44,960
Speaker 1: when in reality they just can't get on the right

1537
01:33:45,000 --> 01:33:48,840
Speaker 1: side of Hey, this is what's going on, folks. Trump

1538
01:33:48,960 --> 01:33:52,479
Speaker 1: won the election. Hillary lost. She was a terrible candidate.

1539
01:33:52,600 --> 01:33:55,960
Speaker 1: There was actually no good reason for there to be

1540
01:33:56,040 --> 01:34:00,599
Speaker 1: a political momentum behind her, and time to move on.

1541
01:34:01,800 --> 01:34:04,759
Speaker 1: She won't move on, though, She'll continue giving these speeches

1542
01:34:04,760 --> 01:34:07,559
Speaker 1: that I think are increasingly sounding almost like a cry

1543
01:34:07,600 --> 01:34:14,840
Speaker 1: for help, because I waited my entire life for this.

1544
01:34:16,400 --> 01:34:20,200
Speaker 1: The world's gonna start over, I'm gonna burn it all.

1545
01:34:22,720 --> 01:34:30,200
Speaker 1: What happens now, what happens to the rest of the world.

1546
01:34:30,800 --> 01:34:34,360
Speaker 1: So that's from the movie Black Panther. Now. I'm not

1547
01:34:34,439 --> 01:34:38,839
Speaker 1: trying to be a hater. Okay, sometimes I get accused

1548
01:34:38,880 --> 01:34:42,320
Speaker 1: of that because I do enjoy being the guy who,

1549
01:34:42,960 --> 01:34:46,840
Speaker 1: on some issues will be a bit contrarian, Like I

1550
01:34:46,880 --> 01:34:52,640
Speaker 1: will tell you, for example, that Bruce Springsteen isn't just overrated,

1551
01:34:52,680 --> 01:34:57,799
Speaker 1: he's not good. I will tell you that nobody should

1552
01:34:57,840 --> 01:35:01,839
Speaker 1: actually pretend that they enjoy listening to Bob Dylan because

1553
01:35:01,880 --> 01:35:05,280
Speaker 1: they don't like I will say these things because they

1554
01:35:05,280 --> 01:35:09,200
Speaker 1: are true. Oh, vanilla ice cream is not as good

1555
01:35:09,240 --> 01:35:12,160
Speaker 1: as chocolate ice cream. This isn't an opinion, this is

1556
01:35:12,160 --> 01:35:17,840
Speaker 1: a fact. And yet here I am once again in

1557
01:35:17,840 --> 01:35:21,200
Speaker 1: a position where, despite what I think is the most

1558
01:35:21,240 --> 01:35:25,200
Speaker 1: objective opinion ever, I feel like there's some controversy around it.

1559
01:35:25,439 --> 01:35:27,920
Speaker 1: So the movie Black Panther, let's get to it. It

1560
01:35:28,160 --> 01:35:31,400
Speaker 1: rained for days here in d C. Rained for days.

1561
01:35:31,400 --> 01:35:34,800
Speaker 1: I had very little to do, because well, what are

1562
01:35:34,840 --> 01:35:36,840
Speaker 1: you gonna do in DC when it's raining, right when

1563
01:35:36,840 --> 01:35:41,559
Speaker 1: the swamp is so murky already. But I watched Black

1564
01:35:41,640 --> 01:35:45,840
Speaker 1: Panther over the weekend. And now there is a movie

1565
01:35:45,920 --> 01:35:49,640
Speaker 1: that I went into feeling like, First of all, I'm

1566
01:35:49,680 --> 01:35:52,439
Speaker 1: I'm open to comic book movies. I have no problem

1567
01:35:52,479 --> 01:35:55,000
Speaker 1: with comic movies. I tend to like comic book movies.

1568
01:35:55,400 --> 01:35:59,439
Speaker 1: So there's nothing about this that automatically should be an issue, right.

1569
01:36:00,439 --> 01:36:03,120
Speaker 1: I like that. I think iron Man is a great movie,

1570
01:36:03,240 --> 01:36:04,640
Speaker 1: not just a good movie. I think iron Man is

1571
01:36:04,640 --> 01:36:08,640
Speaker 1: a great movie. I really enjoyed the movie Blade. I

1572
01:36:08,720 --> 01:36:12,200
Speaker 1: like Batman begins, I go to a whole list of

1573
01:36:12,280 --> 01:36:17,559
Speaker 1: superhero movies. I want to like superhero movies. Okay, I'm

1574
01:36:17,560 --> 01:36:21,040
Speaker 1: not somebody goes what you have magic powers that understand?

1575
01:36:21,520 --> 01:36:24,760
Speaker 1: Excuse me, sir, but DELI human dig could actually fly,

1576
01:36:25,240 --> 01:36:28,160
Speaker 1: so you know I'm not that guy. I'm all right

1577
01:36:28,640 --> 01:36:32,320
Speaker 1: with superhero movies. I like superhero movies. I like the escapism,

1578
01:36:32,360 --> 01:36:34,280
Speaker 1: so I'm rooting for it to be a good movie

1579
01:36:34,320 --> 01:36:37,719
Speaker 1: going into it. And I see that Black Panther has

1580
01:36:38,120 --> 01:36:44,519
Speaker 1: nineties seven percent critics approval on Rotten Tomatoes. I also

1581
01:36:44,560 --> 01:36:47,240
Speaker 1: see that it had one of the biggest movie openings

1582
01:36:47,280 --> 01:36:49,040
Speaker 1: of the end of the year and one of the

1583
01:36:49,040 --> 01:36:54,439
Speaker 1: biggest movie openings I believe of all time. And I've

1584
01:36:54,479 --> 01:36:56,200
Speaker 1: told you I don't go see movies in the theater

1585
01:36:56,280 --> 01:37:00,000
Speaker 1: for the most part because of people, because people ruin them,

1586
01:37:00,120 --> 01:37:04,040
Speaker 1: because they talk, because they hold their iPhones up. They

1587
01:37:04,160 --> 01:37:07,120
Speaker 1: ruin the experience, and I do not enjoy it when

1588
01:37:07,160 --> 01:37:09,880
Speaker 1: people do that. So I watched things on my own time.

1589
01:37:09,960 --> 01:37:13,479
Speaker 1: I don't usually go to the movie theater. So I

1590
01:37:13,520 --> 01:37:15,680
Speaker 1: finally got a chance to watch Black Panther, and I

1591
01:37:15,760 --> 01:37:19,679
Speaker 1: was shocked because it is so bad as a movie

1592
01:37:20,479 --> 01:37:23,759
Speaker 1: that I don't understand how any critic never mind anyone

1593
01:37:23,760 --> 01:37:26,920
Speaker 1: of the audience thinks it's a good movie. It's one

1594
01:37:26,960 --> 01:37:29,960
Speaker 1: thing to say you enjoy it, like there are there

1595
01:37:29,960 --> 01:37:36,439
Speaker 1: are terrible movies that I enjoy watching, nonetheless for for

1596
01:37:36,479 --> 01:37:40,400
Speaker 1: all kinds of different reasons. But I know that they're bad.

1597
01:37:41,240 --> 01:37:44,439
Speaker 1: I don't sit there and try to tell you that

1598
01:37:44,439 --> 01:37:49,679
Speaker 1: that blood Sport is a good movie. I love the movie,

1599
01:37:49,720 --> 01:37:52,280
Speaker 1: but I know that the acting is is horrific, the

1600
01:37:52,320 --> 01:37:54,880
Speaker 1: screenplay is garbage, and the whole thing doesn't really make

1601
01:37:54,920 --> 01:37:58,360
Speaker 1: any sense, including the realism of the fight scenes, which

1602
01:37:58,360 --> 01:38:02,439
Speaker 1: are preposterous. But but I can very clearly pick up

1603
01:38:02,520 --> 01:38:06,360
Speaker 1: that Black Panther is supposed to be not just entertaining

1604
01:38:06,479 --> 01:38:10,240
Speaker 1: for some folks, but also a good movie, and it's

1605
01:38:10,280 --> 01:38:13,559
Speaker 1: just not. I mean, and how can so many people

1606
01:38:13,600 --> 01:38:16,439
Speaker 1: get this wrong? Why are we all supposed to sit

1607
01:38:16,479 --> 01:38:18,720
Speaker 1: around and act like this is actually a worthwhile thing

1608
01:38:18,800 --> 01:38:21,880
Speaker 1: for anyone, worthwhile thing for anyone to watch. I mean,

1609
01:38:21,920 --> 01:38:23,479
Speaker 1: just a few things that come to mind. For example,

1610
01:38:23,520 --> 01:38:26,880
Speaker 1: I could do this all day. So so Wakanda from

1611
01:38:26,920 --> 01:38:30,920
Speaker 1: the movie Black Panther is the most advanced, technologically advanced

1612
01:38:30,960 --> 01:38:35,840
Speaker 1: society on on the face of the earth, Yet they

1613
01:38:36,040 --> 01:38:41,000
Speaker 1: choose their leader by having a couple of shirtless guys

1614
01:38:41,400 --> 01:38:44,960
Speaker 1: fight to the death in what is basically a kiddie pool.

1615
01:38:45,000 --> 01:38:48,000
Speaker 1: It's like water up to their ankles or something. That

1616
01:38:48,040 --> 01:38:51,000
Speaker 1: doesn't strike me as what you would expect from a

1617
01:38:51,040 --> 01:38:53,880
Speaker 1: society that's so advanced that it could promote peace for

1618
01:38:53,920 --> 01:38:56,280
Speaker 1: all the rest of the world just based on its knowledge.

1619
01:38:57,240 --> 01:38:59,639
Speaker 1: It also struck me as a little strange. And look,

1620
01:38:59,640 --> 01:39:03,320
Speaker 1: I'm a hey with Wakanda, this this place in Africa

1621
01:39:03,560 --> 01:39:06,320
Speaker 1: that has this incredible technology at all. I can buy

1622
01:39:06,360 --> 01:39:08,880
Speaker 1: into some of the backstory and all that, but the

1623
01:39:08,920 --> 01:39:12,679
Speaker 1: best weapon they have is a magic rhinoceros that comes

1624
01:39:12,680 --> 01:39:15,400
Speaker 1: out of the ground and runs people over. I mean,

1625
01:39:15,400 --> 01:39:17,479
Speaker 1: I'm just telling you what I saw in the movie.

1626
01:39:18,360 --> 01:39:23,800
Speaker 1: There's no plot, The dialogue is laughable, the action sequences

1627
01:39:23,920 --> 01:39:28,000
Speaker 1: aren't good. There's way too much c G. I I

1628
01:39:28,040 --> 01:39:30,280
Speaker 1: really ask who can think this is a good movie.

1629
01:39:31,160 --> 01:39:34,479
Speaker 1: It's not that it's not good. It's bad, but everyone

1630
01:39:34,520 --> 01:39:37,960
Speaker 1: pretends they like it. Strikes me it's very very odd.

1631
01:39:37,960 --> 01:39:40,120
Speaker 1: By the way, I'm excited for Deadpool too. That will

1632
01:39:40,200 --> 01:39:42,599
Speaker 1: be a very good movie. When we've got roll Call

01:40:50,120 --> 01:40:53,719
Speaker 1: I've been removed from your automatic subscription three times last month.

1645
01:40:54,200 --> 01:40:55,840
Speaker 1: Not sure, but you might want to check it out

1646
01:40:55,960 --> 01:41:01,240
Speaker 1: shields high. Um, all right, I will look into that one. Monica,

1647
01:41:01,280 --> 01:41:03,040
Speaker 1: don't know what to say. Oh, then we'll have the

1648
01:41:03,080 --> 01:41:06,719
Speaker 1: tech team check it out. Next up here we have Matt,

1649
01:41:06,840 --> 01:41:09,439
Speaker 1: who writes The thing I love about your show is

1650
01:41:09,479 --> 01:41:12,320
Speaker 1: that can be a deep dive into history or theory

1651
01:41:12,400 --> 01:41:15,519
Speaker 1: one hour and something lighthearted the next. I want to

1652
01:41:15,520 --> 01:41:18,280
Speaker 1: give credit to America now for seeing the potential and

1653
01:41:18,400 --> 01:41:20,839
Speaker 1: all the work your team is doing to go big.

1654
01:41:21,360 --> 01:41:25,320
Speaker 1: In the past, you occasionally did science segments more. Please

1655
01:41:25,680 --> 01:41:28,759
Speaker 1: as you fight the dad bod, maybe bring on Dr

1656
01:41:28,840 --> 01:41:33,559
Speaker 1: Jason Fung, who's questioning a lot of diet conventions. I

1657
01:41:33,640 --> 01:41:36,080
Speaker 1: work in the Space program, so I'm tempted to say

1658
01:41:36,120 --> 01:41:40,280
Speaker 1: shields up, but shield's eye sounds better. Matt down in

1659
01:41:40,320 --> 01:41:42,760
Speaker 1: Texas well, Matt, thank you so much. You know, I

1660
01:41:43,160 --> 01:41:46,120
Speaker 1: try to come at science from the perspective of somebody

1661
01:41:46,160 --> 01:41:50,639
Speaker 1: who has no scientific background whatsoever, but really likes reading

1662
01:41:50,680 --> 01:41:54,960
Speaker 1: and learning and thinking through problems. And I have to

1663
01:41:55,000 --> 01:41:58,920
Speaker 1: tell you it's it's been one of the more interesting

1664
01:41:59,800 --> 01:42:03,920
Speaker 1: part of my journey, particularly on on health and nutrition,

1665
01:42:04,280 --> 01:42:10,519
Speaker 1: to just see how often the conventional wisdom has been wrong. Now,

1666
01:42:10,560 --> 01:42:16,280
Speaker 1: not always diametrically opposed right, not always the exact polar opposite,

1667
01:42:16,760 --> 01:42:19,880
Speaker 1: but not not nearly as correct as they say it is,

1668
01:42:20,000 --> 01:42:23,880
Speaker 1: and in some cases almost entirely incorrect. I've talked to

1669
01:42:23,920 --> 01:42:27,240
Speaker 1: you about the food pyramid, for example, and how twelve

1670
01:42:27,280 --> 01:42:31,600
Speaker 1: servings of grain and rice and bread to day is insane.

1671
01:42:31,720 --> 01:42:35,719
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's disastrous for anyone. And then also

1672
01:42:36,760 --> 01:42:40,320
Speaker 1: the war on fat and its replacement with sugar, meaning

1673
01:42:40,320 --> 01:42:44,080
Speaker 1: the war on fat in food. Throughout my childhood really

1674
01:42:44,320 --> 01:42:48,439
Speaker 1: remember people always eating these fat free foods and fat

1675
01:42:48,520 --> 01:42:52,479
Speaker 1: free cookies. We used to have margarine, which was and

1676
01:42:52,640 --> 01:42:54,160
Speaker 1: I knew this as a kid. I'm like, what is

1677
01:42:54,200 --> 01:43:01,280
Speaker 1: that grotesque, mutant looking neon yellow that they're putting out

1678
01:43:01,320 --> 01:43:03,320
Speaker 1: a bar of in the middle of the table. I

1679
01:43:03,360 --> 01:43:06,719
Speaker 1: just want butter. But they gave us margarine in my school,

1680
01:43:06,760 --> 01:43:10,679
Speaker 1: which is absolutely disgusting. So yeah, I'll try to bring

1681
01:43:10,720 --> 01:43:15,680
Speaker 1: more of the science segments in where I'm approaching it

1682
01:43:15,720 --> 01:43:18,439
Speaker 1: as a lay person, and we'll have some experts on

1683
01:43:18,479 --> 01:43:21,720
Speaker 1: when we can. But people who say things like the

1684
01:43:21,760 --> 01:43:26,080
Speaker 1: science is settled are a lot of times just complete ignoramuses.

1685
01:43:26,360 --> 01:43:29,679
Speaker 1: They have no idea what they're talking about. Science until

1686
01:43:30,400 --> 01:43:34,679
Speaker 1: really about the last hundred years or so new very

1687
01:43:34,800 --> 01:43:38,760
Speaker 1: very little, which is a pretty remarkable thing when you

1688
01:43:39,040 --> 01:43:41,400
Speaker 1: when you consider it, human beings have been around for

1689
01:43:41,439 --> 01:43:45,679
Speaker 1: a really long time, and we're just starting to figure

1690
01:43:45,680 --> 01:43:50,719
Speaker 1: stuff out, and we were just mapping human genomes and

1691
01:43:50,720 --> 01:43:54,840
Speaker 1: and we're just beginning to get some insight into the

1692
01:43:54,960 --> 01:43:59,160
Speaker 1: full depth and scope of what goes on at the

1693
01:43:59,200 --> 01:44:02,080
Speaker 1: cellular level in the world around us. Anyway, A lot

1694
01:44:02,120 --> 01:44:03,840
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff, a lot of stuff there, thank you,

1695
01:44:03,880 --> 01:44:09,680
Speaker 1: So much Matt and Shields high Uh Mark, next up here,

1696
01:44:09,720 --> 01:44:13,400
Speaker 1: he writes, Buck or Buck Staff. No, it's me, Mark,

1697
01:44:13,880 --> 01:44:16,320
Speaker 1: I'm here. I'm on the air live from talking to you.

1698
01:44:16,920 --> 01:44:18,519
Speaker 1: I was wondering if you were going to comment on

1699
01:44:18,560 --> 01:44:21,880
Speaker 1: the passing of one of the eminent Middle Eastern scholars,

1700
01:44:21,960 --> 01:44:25,640
Speaker 1: Bernard Lewis. I read his Crisis of Islam while in

1701
01:44:25,680 --> 01:44:29,719
Speaker 1: college and found it equally informative and insightful. The book

1702
01:44:29,840 --> 01:44:33,240
Speaker 1: was such a good example of responsible and simple scholarship.

1703
01:44:33,680 --> 01:44:36,040
Speaker 1: He was a rare man in this modern age and

1704
01:44:36,040 --> 01:44:39,160
Speaker 1: will be missed. Perhaps his passing could be a good

1705
01:44:39,160 --> 01:44:42,639
Speaker 1: opportunity to chat around the state of Middle Eastern studies

1706
01:44:42,680 --> 01:44:46,920
Speaker 1: on campus and the competing theories and approaches of Orientalism.

1707
01:44:46,960 --> 01:44:49,800
Speaker 1: I know that as an unpc word by some, but

1708
01:44:49,920 --> 01:44:53,320
Speaker 1: that's a but that's nonsense, and I'm a bit old school.

1709
01:44:53,320 --> 01:44:54,960
Speaker 1: I hope you have a great day. Keep up the

1710
01:44:54,960 --> 01:44:58,280
Speaker 1: great work. God bless Shields high Mark, who also writes

1711
01:44:58,280 --> 01:45:03,439
Speaker 1: ps more history. Um, well, Mark, I'm I'm working on it.

1712
01:45:03,680 --> 01:45:05,600
Speaker 1: I promise you, I've I'm working on it. I'm just

1713
01:45:06,120 --> 01:45:08,000
Speaker 1: I'm I'm not gonna lie to you, guys. I'm overwhelmed

1714
01:45:08,040 --> 01:45:10,040
Speaker 1: these days I've got so many things I'm trying to do,

1715
01:45:10,800 --> 01:45:13,280
Speaker 1: and the good news is a priority one is always

1716
01:45:13,320 --> 01:45:17,240
Speaker 1: this show. But I'm launching another video project that any

1717
01:45:17,320 --> 01:45:18,800
Speaker 1: day now i'll be able to give you guys all

1718
01:45:18,800 --> 01:45:22,760
Speaker 1: the details of. Uh, we're launching another podcast here which

1719
01:45:22,800 --> 01:45:26,240
Speaker 1: is gonna be a kind of Buck unplugged segment. We're

1720
01:45:26,240 --> 01:45:28,600
Speaker 1: gonna call it The Freedom Hunt with Buck Sexton, So

1721
01:45:28,640 --> 01:45:31,080
Speaker 1: you're getting a preview of that. That should hopefully be

1722
01:45:31,120 --> 01:45:35,040
Speaker 1: out weekly starting in uh about two weeks, and I'm

1723
01:45:35,040 --> 01:45:37,519
Speaker 1: hoping all of you will download that. We're we haven't

1724
01:45:37,520 --> 01:45:39,160
Speaker 1: even created don't look for it yet. We haven't even

1725
01:45:39,200 --> 01:45:43,880
Speaker 1: created the iTunes iTunes landing page, but that will be

1726
01:45:43,920 --> 01:45:45,640
Speaker 1: coming out as well. Just be an opportunity for me

1727
01:45:45,680 --> 01:45:48,080
Speaker 1: to kind of fly off the cuff, not be bound

1728
01:45:48,080 --> 01:45:50,760
Speaker 1: by news of the day and do some I don't know,

1729
01:45:50,800 --> 01:45:53,920
Speaker 1: the kind of biggest thoughts of the week stuff, you

1730
01:45:53,920 --> 01:45:57,000
Speaker 1: know what's just in general, it'll be like we're all

1731
01:45:57,040 --> 01:45:59,800
Speaker 1: sitting around hanging out talking. That's that's my You know,

1732
01:45:59,800 --> 01:46:03,240
Speaker 1: when when Seinfeld pitches their show to show about nothing

1733
01:46:03,280 --> 01:46:05,519
Speaker 1: where they just do but but it's really a show

1734
01:46:05,520 --> 01:46:08,640
Speaker 1: about everything. The Freedom Halt with Buck Saxton is just

1735
01:46:08,680 --> 01:46:11,840
Speaker 1: gonna be a shorthand version of here's what I think

1736
01:46:11,880 --> 01:46:14,439
Speaker 1: is really going on. And if you say about what

1737
01:46:14,640 --> 01:46:16,280
Speaker 1: the answer is, well, what do you want? What do

1738
01:46:16,320 --> 01:46:19,280
Speaker 1: you want to talk about? Because it could be anything. Uh.

1739
01:46:19,320 --> 01:46:23,160
Speaker 1: And oh, as to Bernard Lewis, Yes, he passed away.

1740
01:46:23,680 --> 01:46:27,200
Speaker 1: I saw that Secretary of State Pompeo made note of

1741
01:46:27,200 --> 01:46:31,840
Speaker 1: it in a tweet. Um, Bernard Lewis was was probably

1742
01:46:31,880 --> 01:46:36,000
Speaker 1: the greatest contemporary American scholar of the Middle East, so

1743
01:46:36,040 --> 01:46:39,559
Speaker 1: that I think that there's no more fitting epitaph for

1744
01:46:39,720 --> 01:46:42,880
Speaker 1: him than that. And I was just talking about him

1745
01:46:42,960 --> 01:46:45,559
Speaker 1: last week because we had a member of Team Buck

1746
01:46:45,720 --> 01:46:49,960
Speaker 1: Israel who pointed out and I conceded rightfully that Bernard

1747
01:46:50,040 --> 01:46:54,280
Speaker 1: Lewis is a far better example of somebody to read

1748
01:46:54,520 --> 01:46:57,719
Speaker 1: on the issue of the Middle East then say Segev

1749
01:46:57,800 --> 01:47:01,280
Speaker 1: or Freedman or some of the other well known leftists

1750
01:47:01,280 --> 01:47:06,160
Speaker 1: on this stuff. Uh. Next up, I'm trying to load

1751
01:47:06,240 --> 01:47:10,160
Speaker 1: this up. Um. This is from Sean he writes book.

1752
01:47:10,160 --> 01:47:11,519
Speaker 1: It would really meet a lot if you took the

1753
01:47:11,600 --> 01:47:14,080
Speaker 1: same stance that a number of other news media outlets,

1754
01:47:14,120 --> 01:47:17,200
Speaker 1: including The Daily Wire, have taken and pledged to not

1755
01:47:17,280 --> 01:47:20,160
Speaker 1: disclose the name or post any photos of shooters and

1756
01:47:20,200 --> 01:47:24,840
Speaker 1: mass shootings, especially school shootings. The fame just encourages others

1757
01:47:24,880 --> 01:47:27,920
Speaker 1: to follow in their footsteps. If the media as a

1758
01:47:27,920 --> 01:47:30,639
Speaker 1: whole would pledge to never show their faces or disclose

1759
01:47:30,720 --> 01:47:33,240
Speaker 1: their names, I believe it would help cut down on

1760
01:47:33,360 --> 01:47:38,439
Speaker 1: the glory they feel they receive when committing these heinous acts. Sean,

1761
01:47:38,640 --> 01:47:41,200
Speaker 1: I I agree with the thinking on that. I think

1762
01:47:41,240 --> 01:47:44,880
Speaker 1: in practice it's very very difficult to do because what

1763
01:47:45,000 --> 01:47:47,920
Speaker 1: ends up happening, and that's really a function of the Internet.

1764
01:47:48,240 --> 01:47:51,400
Speaker 1: What ends up happening is people want to see the photo,

1765
01:47:51,439 --> 01:47:53,439
Speaker 1: and they want to see the name, and so even

1766
01:47:53,479 --> 01:47:56,839
Speaker 1: if it's really only published in one place, it gets

1767
01:47:57,040 --> 01:48:01,360
Speaker 1: spread everywhere because of the nature of human interest in

1768
01:48:01,400 --> 01:48:04,640
Speaker 1: these events. And I just don't really think it's possible

1769
01:48:04,680 --> 01:48:07,080
Speaker 1: to suppress. Now that said, I do think that the

1770
01:48:07,080 --> 01:48:11,960
Speaker 1: way we cover it can be responsible or irresponsible. I

1771
01:48:12,040 --> 01:48:14,760
Speaker 1: an example of this would be when Rolling Stone put

1772
01:48:15,400 --> 01:48:20,240
Speaker 1: uh Jahar Sarneyev, the one of the two Boston Marathon bombers,

1773
01:48:20,280 --> 01:48:23,439
Speaker 1: on their cover, looking like some kind of young rock star.

1774
01:48:23,760 --> 01:48:25,719
Speaker 1: I mean, that's kind of the that's really the height

1775
01:48:25,840 --> 01:48:32,000
Speaker 1: of disgraceful and irresponsible coverage of a murdering terrorists psychopath.

1776
01:48:32,920 --> 01:48:36,200
Speaker 1: So it's clearly possible to go well beyond any journalistic

1777
01:48:36,200 --> 01:48:39,519
Speaker 1: standards or integrity. So that's my focus with these things.

1778
01:48:39,520 --> 01:48:41,800
Speaker 1: It's just to try to cover it in a way

1779
01:48:41,920 --> 01:48:45,120
Speaker 1: where we're being accurate. It's on it's about the facts.

1780
01:48:45,120 --> 01:48:48,760
Speaker 1: It's analysis that is in no way doing anything other

1781
01:48:48,800 --> 01:48:53,720
Speaker 1: than discussing the event and the ideology behind it from

1782
01:48:53,760 --> 01:48:57,599
Speaker 1: the perspective of wanting to combat, combat, defeat and destroy it.

1783
01:48:57,840 --> 01:49:02,360
Speaker 1: So but Sean, I'll think about it. Um, I'll give

1784
01:49:02,400 --> 01:49:04,639
Speaker 1: it some thought for sure, and I'm not saying it's wrong.

1785
01:49:04,680 --> 01:49:06,960
Speaker 1: I just I don't know if it's really feasible. I

1786
01:49:06,960 --> 01:49:11,040
Speaker 1: don't know if it is really possible. Next up here

1787
01:49:11,640 --> 01:49:19,479
Speaker 1: we have William who writes the following that uh here

1788
01:49:19,560 --> 01:49:23,040
Speaker 1: he writes, after watching Cobra Kai and Donald Trump becoming president,

1789
01:49:23,360 --> 01:49:25,759
Speaker 1: a lot of folks just don't give a crap anymore.

1790
01:49:25,920 --> 01:49:29,200
Speaker 1: PC what. It's a dangerous game the left is playing

1791
01:49:29,240 --> 01:49:33,800
Speaker 1: now and it's and when you apologize for racism, you

1792
01:49:33,880 --> 01:49:38,160
Speaker 1: lose listeners. I'm married with children to a non white

1793
01:49:38,320 --> 01:49:41,760
Speaker 1: Samoan and have dated lots of minorities. You're playing into

1794
01:49:41,800 --> 01:49:46,280
Speaker 1: the left when you call folks racist shields high Uh Okay,

1795
01:49:46,280 --> 01:49:48,880
Speaker 1: William I don't know who I called racist. I mean

1796
01:49:48,920 --> 01:49:51,880
Speaker 1: there are racists. There are people who are racists. So

1797
01:49:53,320 --> 01:49:56,080
Speaker 1: I'm not really sure who are specifically referring to. But

1798
01:49:56,240 --> 01:50:01,240
Speaker 1: I appreciate the the note. Thanks for reaching out. We

1799
01:50:01,479 --> 01:50:10,080
Speaker 1: have hold on one second here, some folks, eric right buck.

1800
01:50:10,120 --> 01:50:12,800
Speaker 1: We had some protests in Savannah. People were laying down

1801
01:50:12,800 --> 01:50:16,519
Speaker 1: in front of busses. It got a little harry. We

1802
01:50:16,560 --> 01:50:20,879
Speaker 1: had to escort the busses out of Savannah. Uh oh.

1803
01:50:20,920 --> 01:50:25,679
Speaker 1: I think the tactical unit was our canine unit. Interesting,

1804
01:50:25,760 --> 01:50:27,920
Speaker 1: I gotta check this story out. There was a it

1805
01:50:28,040 --> 01:50:30,840
Speaker 1: was a deportation buss people lying down in front of it.

1806
01:50:31,160 --> 01:50:35,200
Speaker 1: That's illegal, folks, that's not uh, that's not engaging in

1807
01:50:35,240 --> 01:50:38,679
Speaker 1: peaceful protests. That's actually breaking the law when you block

1808
01:50:38,800 --> 01:50:41,160
Speaker 1: streets and block cars for moving. I think this is

1809
01:50:41,160 --> 01:50:44,320
Speaker 1: one of the more annoying tactics the left uses. And

1810
01:50:44,360 --> 01:50:47,720
Speaker 1: it's so called protest culture or it's protest culture, it's
