1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of The Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:07,400 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome everybody to the Monday edition of 3 00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:10,640 Speaker 1: The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show. This is Buck 4 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:15,880 Speaker 1: in solo today, Clay on vacation and it is Christmas week. 5 00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:21,840 Speaker 1: Got a lot to get to, including are they going 6 00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:25,720 Speaker 1: to charge Trump? We've been discussing this for a long time. 7 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 1: It seems to be approaching the final phases here the 8 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:34,919 Speaker 1: House January sixth Committee wrapping up its investigation Adam Schiff 9 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:39,440 Speaker 1: perhaps getting what he wants for Christmas, which is an 10 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:43,040 Speaker 1: indictment of Donald Trump. Could it happen now? They could 11 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:47,319 Speaker 1: only refer to the d O J. But we'll take 12 00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:50,599 Speaker 1: a look at what that's what that's looking like at 13 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 1: this point. We've also got a court upholding La County's 14 00:00:55,480 --> 00:01:03,320 Speaker 1: child mask mandate because people are totally completely incapable, it 15 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 1: seems in these liberal enclaves of changing their opinions about 16 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 1: masks based not just on the data obviously observable reality 17 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 1: doesn't matter anymore, doesn't matter the same people who have 18 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 1: brought you. You can't tell if that's a man or 19 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,959 Speaker 1: a woman. Doctors give babies the wrong gender at birth. 20 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 1: Those same people say masks work. It's interesting, isn't it. 21 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:30,039 Speaker 1: What a correlation you have. There also a story that 22 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: I've talked to you about before that I think is 23 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 1: worth revisiting here, Gibson Bakery. You will recall they were 24 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:43,679 Speaker 1: a family owned business in Ohio that was wrongfully accused 25 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 1: by Oberlin College as a racist. They call it a 26 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 1: racist bakery or racist individuals running it. The Oberlin College 27 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 1: is paid out thirty six million dollars. The payments has 28 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 1: been made to that family for lying about them and 29 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 1: calling them racist and defaming their business and trying to 30 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 1: destroy their business. Because wokeness is vicious, and wokeness doesn't 31 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:11,640 Speaker 1: care what's true and what's not true. It just keeps 32 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: looking for more victims and more people to make an 33 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 1: example of. But the big thing I want to start 34 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 1: with today. Oh and also a Netflix show about being 35 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 1: a young CIA officer. That is I'm going to give 36 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:26,639 Speaker 1: you my review of People always ask me like, what's 37 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 1: good what's a good CIA show or a movie? And 38 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 1: there's a new one out called The Recruit on Netflix, 39 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 1: And if you stick around, I'll tell you what I 40 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 1: think about that one. But the big thing for me 41 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 1: right now. Title forty two supposed to end I believe Wednesday. Officially, 42 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 1: it's definitely this week, and Texas Governor Greg Abbott, for example, 43 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 1: is warning that there will be total chaos at our 44 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 1: southern border. Total chaos will break out if the Supreme 45 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 1: Court doesn't preserved Title forty two. The El Paso Mayor 46 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,359 Speaker 1: has declared a state of emergency over the massive surge 47 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 1: of migrants. We have friends an almost open border that 48 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 1: is about to turn into an open border in all 49 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 1: but name, because with Title forty two gone, one of 50 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: the primary tools that has been used to turn back 51 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 1: some illegal migrants will no longer be there, and so 52 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 1: this will just create an even bigger super highway of 53 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: illegality into this country. And what are the Democrats doing 54 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: about it? Well, now they're going to have to find 55 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: a way because the Biden administration wants this. This is 56 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 1: not something that is a surprise to them. This is 57 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 1: not some shock that the complete destruction of enforcement both 58 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 1: at the border and interior enforcement when it comes to 59 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 1: immigration would result in the biggest surge of illegal migrants 60 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: in this country, certainly in twenty years, and in terms 61 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: of permanent illegal migrants from all over the world. Over 62 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: one hundred and sixty countries now represented among those who 63 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 1: have crossed illegally in the United States. This is the 64 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: worst the border has ever been, the most lawless, the 65 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 1: most degraded Our sovereignty has been at the US Mexico border. 66 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: And what are the Democrats saying about it? Well, here's 67 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: ABC's Martha Rabbits talking to Greg Abbott, governor of Texas. 68 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,840 Speaker 1: She's got to try to run some interference for these 69 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:37,160 Speaker 1: Biden Democrats. It's not an open border. Play clip one. 70 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:41,160 Speaker 1: You talk about the border wall, you talk about open borders. 71 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 1: I don't think I've ever heard President Biden say we 72 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:46,919 Speaker 1: have an open board and come on over. But people, 73 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,039 Speaker 1: I have heard ten for you, our former President Trump 74 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: a Rhonda Santas. That message reverberates in Mexico and beyond, 75 00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 1: so they do get the message that it is a 76 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 1: the quarter and smuggled to use all those kinds of statement. 77 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:05,920 Speaker 1: It was known for the time that Joe Biden got 78 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 1: elected that Joe Biden supported open borders. It is known 79 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 1: by the cartels who have sophisticate information whether or not 80 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 1: the bidenministration is going to enforce the immigration laws or 81 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 1: not is known across the world, but most importantly known 82 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:23,480 Speaker 1: among the cartels. Can I just point out, look, I mean, 83 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: Martha Roots of ABC is a joke, and this is 84 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 1: what she's done her whole career. She represents Democrat interests 85 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:34,160 Speaker 1: in the false cloak of journalism, a journal It's ridiculous. 86 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 1: No intelligent, honest person capable of discernment would ever think 87 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: that she's a journalist. But notice the way that she 88 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: approaches this. It's not the Biden administration that refuses to 89 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:54,840 Speaker 1: enforce the law that has illegal migrants literally and I 90 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: mean in the actual usage of that word telling border patrol. 91 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,839 Speaker 1: They are truly and literally telling border patrol in many cases. 92 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: I'm here because Biden is president and the border is open. 93 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:12,679 Speaker 1: And you see what Rabbits does. She says, the reason 94 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 1: all the illegals are pouring into the country is because 95 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:21,559 Speaker 1: of Republicans who are pointing out that the border is open. 96 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:24,920 Speaker 1: This is a new one, I have to tell you. 97 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 1: In the lip propaganda tool, kid, I haven't seen this 98 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 1: in a while. The problem isn't the person lighting the 99 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: house on fire. The problem is the person on the 100 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 1: streets shouting the house is on fire. Someone get the 101 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 1: fire department. Well, don't you see you're the one that's 102 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 1: causing all the panic and chaos by calling for the 103 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: fire department. We just burned the house down. What's the problem. 104 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 1: She really tried that, She really tried the Oh, you're 105 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 1: messaging about the border as if the billions and billions 106 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: of dollars the cartels have made in the last couple 107 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 1: of years under Biden by smuggling people in illegally. I 108 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 1: think they figured out what's going on. They have wrist 109 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:13,119 Speaker 1: bands they give to people to show that they've paid. 110 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: These different plotzas, areas of the border controlled as fiefdoms 111 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 1: of these different drug cartels. Those different border regions border 112 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 1: areas result in massive fees for the human smuggling to 113 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 1: the cartels as well as the illegal narcotic smuggling, most 114 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 1: notably the fentanyl that is poisoning tens of thousands of 115 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:40,679 Speaker 1: Americans every year, over one hundred thousand overdoths deaths last 116 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: year in this country. Then that doesn't even include all 117 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 1: the emergency room visits, all the last second narcan injections 118 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 1: that people get that barely saved their lives, you know, 119 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: just in the nick of time. Doesn't include all the 120 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 1: people wandering around the streets high on fentayl or meth 121 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 1: or whatever, who are committing crimes, who are assaulting people, 122 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: who are so desperate for money to feed their habit 123 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: that they will break laws and make cities and other 124 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 1: parts of the country miserable to live in. So it's 125 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: really poisoning the whole of our society, and it's coming 126 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 1: across the US Mexico border. And the best that an 127 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: ABC journalist can do is, why are you guys talking 128 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 1: about how bad the border is? Don't you see? That's 129 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 1: making it really bad. That's what's encouraging everybody to come across. 130 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: They wouldn't know about the wide open border if you 131 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 1: weren't saying it. Now. That's a really stupid argument. But 132 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: ABC does not employ intelligent people to work on air 133 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 1: for their news organization. They employ compliant libs who are 134 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 1: basically actors who read the required script. That's what they 135 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 1: have over there, whether it's Rabbits or Stephanopolis or whomever, 136 00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 1: that is whom they employ, not just at ABC, at NBC, 137 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: at CBS. It's the same thing everywhere, right, I mean, 138 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 1: tune into CBS. Is Margaret Brennan you get the regime 139 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 1: talking points through the guise of a journal so serious, 140 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 1: so honest. But if you think that's a dumb explanation 141 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 1: for the situation at the southern border right now, New York, 142 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get to New York City and it's like 143 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:25,320 Speaker 1: a New York City's crying on Los Angeles, California. They're crying. 144 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,079 Speaker 1: It's say, oh my gosh, we can't handle this way. 145 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 1: Hold on a second, lips. I thought the more the 146 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 1: merrier illegals. I thought, the more illegal immigration we had, 147 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 1: the richer and more prosperous and better off America would be. 148 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 1: Why is it a problem? Oh we'll get into that. 149 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 1: But people might be wondering, why didn't Joe Biden go 150 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:54,839 Speaker 1: to the border? This would be so easy to deal with, right, 151 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 1: This is not a difficult problem to solve. The guy 152 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 1: has the most the most formidable, taxpayer funded travel service 153 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 1: in the world. He can go anywhere he wants, whenever 154 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 1: he wants. Here is White House senior advisor Kesha Lance 155 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: Bottoms when she is asked about Biden, not once, not 156 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:22,680 Speaker 1: once in his professional life, never mind while president going 157 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 1: to the single place of the greatest domestic and in 158 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 1: a sense, international policy crisis in America today, we'll not 159 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 1: see it with his own eyes, will not spend the 160 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 1: time to travel there. When the White House senior advisor 161 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 1: has asked you, you got to hear this play clip three, Well, 162 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:42,560 Speaker 1: why doesn't he go to the border? He was just 163 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 1: in Arizona. Why wasn't it worth his time? Well, you 164 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 1: have to remember, Margaret, when the president travels is not 165 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,680 Speaker 1: like you are eye jumping on an airplane and getting 166 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:54,199 Speaker 1: off and going to our destination. Everything comes to a halt. 167 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:56,959 Speaker 1: So all of these things are in consideration for the president. 168 00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,680 Speaker 1: Is that the best use of reforces all of the 169 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 1: forces that will be diverted on the ground when the 170 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:07,839 Speaker 1: president makes a visit that visit, Well, I can't speak 171 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 1: to why he has there has not gone. I'm just 172 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 1: speaking to the fact that it's a bit more disruptive 173 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,679 Speaker 1: for the President of the United States to travel than 174 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: you or I. It's more disruptive to go to the 175 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: US Mexico border. Oh okay, wait a second. The President 176 00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:32,839 Speaker 1: flies all over the country and all over the world 177 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:35,199 Speaker 1: whenever he wants. I mean, if there's a climate change 178 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 1: conference in Helsinki, if there's you know, a meeting of 179 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:43,679 Speaker 1: the illuminati in Thailand. Whatever. He'll go wherever he wants. 180 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 1: But El Paso McAllen, Texas, Oh no, can't go there. 181 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I've been to those places. I've been to 182 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: the border in those places, for example, and there's plenty 183 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: of space, plenty of space. I think they can handle 184 00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:00,719 Speaker 1: a secret service detail. Pretty sure. It's not so crowded 185 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 1: in McAllen, Texas these days that you couldn't actually find 186 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 1: a way to have the president, the commander in chief, 187 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 1: the head of the executive branch, telling people that he's 188 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:17,960 Speaker 1: going down there and actually make the visit. Isn't it astonishing? 189 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 1: Their arguments are laughable, but they'll get away with it 190 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:25,440 Speaker 1: because they still control ninety percent plus of the media, 191 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,920 Speaker 1: and people were fooled, unfortunately, into thinking that this is 192 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:31,560 Speaker 1: not a massive crisis by the same media that's supposed 193 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 1: to cover it because they didn't want people to vote 194 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 1: on this on election day. You have so many people, 195 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 1: I hope the independence and this squishy Republicans that thought 196 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:45,440 Speaker 1: it was more important to defend our democracy in Pennsylvania 197 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 1: and Arizona and Georgia. I hope they're really happy that 198 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 1: they kept the Democrats in power enough that they feel 199 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 1: like they can get away with this wide open southern 200 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: border that is completely in chaos. When you actually spend 201 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 1: time there, when you actually what's going on, it should 202 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 1: be the biggest news story in America if the news 203 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:08,679 Speaker 1: was about what's important and what's happening. But no, you know, 204 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 1: you know what's you know what the biggest story is 205 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 1: Ron Descentis is really mean or something? Or Elon Musk 206 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,320 Speaker 1: tweeted something that the Libs don't like. That's the biggest 207 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 1: story the journals are covering right now. Oh and of 208 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 1: course Trump and the insurrection January sixth panel to unveil 209 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:30,320 Speaker 1: criminal referrals against Trump. That's on CNN right now. What 210 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 1: Trump Trump's role in this thing two years ago? He 211 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:36,839 Speaker 1: didn't have It wasn't Trump. And you know, this is 212 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:38,960 Speaker 1: just the way that they framed the issue. But that 213 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:43,599 Speaker 1: is more important than the mass of human trafficking, illegality, 214 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:49,080 Speaker 1: violation of our laws, massive social and economic cost, criminal cost, 215 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 1: the cartels richer than ever. One hundred thousand plus people 216 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:54,599 Speaker 1: dying a year of drug overdoses. It's all come in 217 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: across the US Mexico border. It is affecting not just 218 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 1: border regions, of course, but Los Angeles and New York 219 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: and Chicago and name a city, and those mayors are 220 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 1: calling out as a result of this. They're crying out 221 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 1: as a result of this, particularly New York and Los Angeles, 222 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 1: and they're focused on Trump and the Amber heard defamation lawsuit. Yeah, 223 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,920 Speaker 1: that's really important. They're such journals, aren't they. They're so serious, 224 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 1: all just speaking the truth to power the worst. My friends, 225 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 1: this Christmas season, join me in giving the gift of 226 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 1: life to an unborn child.

Pregnancy clinics make this possible. 228 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: This nationwide nonprofit organization has saved the lives of hundreds 229 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: of thousands of unborn children, with a goal of dramatically 230 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 1: increasing that number.

When a pregnant mother 234 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 1: meets her child through an ultrasound, something very special happens 235 00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: as a bond between mother and child is developed. An 236 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 1: overwhelm number of pregnant mothers decides to bring that unborn 237 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 1: child into this world.

So 309 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 1: we're doing news here, which means it may not necessarily 310 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 1: line up with the Christmas music vibe sometimes because there 311 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 1: are still some problems we have to have to handle 312 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:13,920 Speaker 1: in this country, even though it is to the Christmas 313 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:19,360 Speaker 1: and holiday season. So I have to tell you more 314 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 1: about what's going on with the situation at the border, 315 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:27,959 Speaker 1: just because, for one thing, where were all these Democrats 316 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 1: and this is a rhetorical question, but where have they 317 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 1: been for the last two years while somehow the only 318 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:36,679 Speaker 1: people that thought there was a crisis at the border. 319 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 1: And you know, the word crisis gets thrown around. What 320 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 1: there's a climate crisis? No, there isn't. Just look at 321 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:46,520 Speaker 1: look at where the super rich lives want to buy property, 322 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 1: and it's it's ocean and waterfront. Okay, they're they're not 323 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:54,400 Speaker 1: looking to run up to the mountaintop and escape climate 324 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:57,840 Speaker 1: change because they're full of it. But there's no crisis there. 325 00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 1: There is a true crisis at the border, and anybody 326 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 1: who understands what's happening knows that can articulate it. There's 327 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 1: no question that there's a crisis. You remember the Biden 328 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 1: administration refused to call it a crisis. What was it 329 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:17,879 Speaker 1: a year ago? Refused to use that word. Majorcas dutifully 330 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 1: on behalf of the commies running this White House was 331 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 1: walking around saying no, no, it's a challenge, or it's 332 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:25,960 Speaker 1: not no, it's it is a crisis if that word 333 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:30,880 Speaker 1: has any meaning. Now again, as we know with Democrats 334 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,680 Speaker 1: with the left, man and woman doesn't really have much 335 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 1: meaning anymore. So words change all the time, or rather 336 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 1: they change words all the time as it suits their 337 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 1: political needs and their lust for power at any given moment. 338 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:50,400 Speaker 1: But here is a former representative Will Heard, for example, 339 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 1: who once represented a district of Texas. This is what 340 00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:57,680 Speaker 1: he's saying on the expiration of Tittle forty two, Play six. 341 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:00,880 Speaker 1: The officials here are freaked out, to be honest about 342 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,360 Speaker 1: the impact this is going to have on local communities. 343 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:06,359 Speaker 1: When I was in Congress, I represented all the way 344 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 1: from Eagle Pass to El Paso and sell those images 345 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,639 Speaker 1: that you were showing or things that I lived when 346 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 1: I was in Congress. And let's get some context of this. 347 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 1: The city officials from El Paso over the weekend and 348 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 1: talked about how they were dealing with about two thousand 349 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:26,200 Speaker 1: folks coming across the border illegally a day that when 350 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:29,280 Speaker 1: Title forty two goes away, they are concerned that the 351 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 1: Biden administration and officials are going to start allowing which 352 00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:38,240 Speaker 1: ultimately up to four thousand, five thousand. They're even preparing 353 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 1: for six thousand people a day they're actually across the 354 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 1: border assuming that it will be more like twelve to 355 00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:49,680 Speaker 1: fifteen thousand people every day. So I can think that 356 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:53,920 Speaker 1: Madison Square Garden, where I used to watch the occasional 357 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:56,959 Speaker 1: sporting event when I was growing up in New York City. 358 00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 1: I think holds like eighteen or nineteen thousand, something like that. 359 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 1: Maybe it's a little more, maybe it's a little less. 360 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 1: I should probably check on that. But you know, a 361 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:07,720 Speaker 1: good size not a massive football arena, but you know 362 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,639 Speaker 1: a good size indoor arena. It's going to hold something 363 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:14,440 Speaker 1: like fifteen sixteen thousand every day that many illegals coming 364 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:17,199 Speaker 1: in the United States day in, day out across the 365 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 1: US Mexico border. Think about what that number looks like, 366 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 1: and think about where we already are now. The local 367 00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 1: communities certainly are going to be are going to be 368 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 1: faced with this challenge. But most of the illegal immigrants 369 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: who come into America just think I was talking about 370 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:39,159 Speaker 1: word changes a moment ago. Undocumented. You're supposed to use 371 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:42,199 Speaker 1: this term undocumented all the time. You're not allowed to 372 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,920 Speaker 1: say they're breaking the law. They're breaking the law. They 373 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 1: have broken the law. And people like to get all, oh, 374 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,000 Speaker 1: but they're claiming asylum. Well, they break the law the 375 00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:53,880 Speaker 1: moment they cross, not at a port of entry without 376 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:57,200 Speaker 1: permission from the federal government to come into America full stop. 377 00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 1: That is a violation of law. Democrats have tried to 378 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,400 Speaker 1: change that from it being a criminal offense. They've tried 379 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 1: to downgrade it, but it is a violation of law. 380 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 1: It is essentially the equivalent of federal trespassing. You're not 381 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 1: allowed to just walk across, and at some places, when 382 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:16,520 Speaker 1: you're at the southern border, it's just a line in 383 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 1: a line in the dirt. Essentially you could just walk across. 384 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: There are some places where the fence is dilapidated or 385 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:27,119 Speaker 1: even non existent. There are other places where they're substantial fencing, 386 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:29,800 Speaker 1: which is very helpful the border patrol, but there's not 387 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:32,639 Speaker 1: a complete fence, as we know, not a complete border wall. 388 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:37,400 Speaker 1: So they change the term to being undocumented. We know 389 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 1: that places like El Paso are going to have the 390 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:44,960 Speaker 1: biggest numbers of illegals coming in that they've ever seen. 391 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 1: And for anyone who they love to conflate these different issues, yes, 392 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 1: they're going to show you on ABC, on CNN, they're 393 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:57,639 Speaker 1: going to show you scared, scared women, malnourished children, some 394 00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,920 Speaker 1: of whom are coming over. They're gonna have a fever, 395 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,160 Speaker 1: they're gonna be sick, They're they're gonna have to get them, 396 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,879 Speaker 1: you know, fluids into the hospital right away because they 397 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,919 Speaker 1: shouldn't be making this journey. It's dangerous. A lot of 398 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 1: them are being human traffic. A lot of the women 399 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:14,160 Speaker 1: suffer sexual assault from the cartel members who they're completely 400 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 1: at their mercy. Mexican government's basically doing nothing to stop 401 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 1: any of this, and they're gonna show you a video 402 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:23,920 Speaker 1: of this. What they're not going to show you video 403 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:28,080 Speaker 1: of is the women and children all huddled together, and 404 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:33,919 Speaker 1: and maybe some young males who look like, all right, 405 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 1: look they're they're young guys that maybe they just want 406 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 1: to come into the country for we always told for work, 407 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,199 Speaker 1: also for the massive welfare benefits that this country has. 408 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,639 Speaker 1: Let's not forget that. What they're not going to show 409 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 1: you is the night vision that they have up at 410 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 1: the border with trucks and high speed boats and whatever 411 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 1: they need depending on the area of the border, just 412 00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: just taking in massive amounts of fentanyl which are going 413 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 1: to your city and your town to poison your neighbors. 414 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 1: And people don't even realize how dangerous this stuff is. 415 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:12,920 Speaker 1: It gets into the general distribution chain on the streets. 416 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 1: People think they're taking one thing they're taking another. The 417 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:19,480 Speaker 1: chance of border patrol being able to have any operational 418 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 1: control over that flow of drugs under the current circumstances 419 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 1: is zero. It's zero. Democrats don't care. The resources that 420 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 1: they're sending the border are to meant to process more people, 421 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 1: encourage more illegal immigration, more illegal immigration, more processing, more fentanyl. 422 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 1: That's the way it works. It's not that every person 423 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 1: at the border is bringing fentyl. Obviously, most of them 424 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:46,400 Speaker 1: are just coming into America because America is a better 425 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:52,120 Speaker 1: place to live than places that have economies and free 426 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,640 Speaker 1: fall and have no you know, we get that, right, 427 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 1: we understand this. But what's fascinating to me is how 428 00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 1: much of a problem this is. If you listen to 429 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom of California, if you listen to Eric Adams, 430 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,760 Speaker 1: the mayor of New York City, they're saying it's a 431 00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:13,080 Speaker 1: problem as well. For example, Adams, Mayor Adams in New 432 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 1: York says they've already received more than thirty one's thousand 433 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 1: asylum seekers into our city and currently have opened sixty 434 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:26,920 Speaker 1: emergency shelters for for humanitarian relief centers and two welcome centers. 435 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:32,159 Speaker 1: He wants a billion dollars for this, and that's just 436 00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 1: a cover where we are right now. Also notice the 437 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:39,640 Speaker 1: usage of language here meant to completely obscure what's really 438 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:43,960 Speaker 1: going on. Thirty one thousand asylum seekers. These aren't asylum seekers. 439 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,159 Speaker 1: Almost none of them will get asylum. Almost none of 440 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:51,400 Speaker 1: them will even show up at the asylum hearings. They 441 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 1: are illegal immigrants who are going to stay in the 442 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 1: country full stop. That is reality. They're lying to you. 443 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:00,479 Speaker 1: They're lying to you all these different news organizations. I mean, 444 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 1: the way that the system works it is broken. They 445 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:08,240 Speaker 1: intentionally broke it. Anyone can come to the country illegally 446 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 1: say I claim asylum, I want asylum, and then they 447 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 1: pass the credible fear test. They've been coached. All they've 448 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 1: say is, yeah, I fear persecution in my country. Really, 449 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 1: one hundred and sixty countries all over the world. Everyone 450 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:25,439 Speaker 1: everyone fears persecution. Wow, a lot of a lot of 451 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 1: great authors, apparently, you know, writing things that that terrify 452 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:32,120 Speaker 1: the regime in their home country. I mean, really, everybody 453 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 1: souls the nets and all of a sudden, everyone fears 454 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 1: persecution in their home country. It's a lie. They're lying 455 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 1: to you. But hold on, I also thought that this 456 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:49,960 Speaker 1: massive flow of illegal immigration was gonna make every everybody wealthier. 457 00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 1: They're doing the jobs Americans won't do. They're more law abiding, 458 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:56,439 Speaker 1: more hard working than Americans than all Americans of all backgrounds, Right, 459 00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 1: that's what they tell us. But no, there they need 460 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 1: a billion dollars just in New York City to fund this. 461 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 1: Why do they need a billion dollar Oh okay, you 462 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:11,840 Speaker 1: mean that there's an implied an assumption here that most 463 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 1: of these quote asylum seekers are just going to be 464 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 1: entirely dependent upon state resources for the foreseeable future. You 465 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,879 Speaker 1: are paying for this, that's the point. You are paying 466 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:26,119 Speaker 1: for it, and it's just going to keep getting worse. 467 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 1: It's going to get more and more expensive. And they're 468 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 1: really just hoping at this point. I'm telling you, the 469 00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: game here that they're running is to make it so 470 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:41,239 Speaker 1: obvious and so overflowing as a country, to make us 471 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 1: overflow with so much in the way of illegal immigration, 472 00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 1: that they create an inevitability of a mass amnesty that 473 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 1: will forever change the political the political landscape of this country. 474 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 1: That's they're just going for it at this point. They're 475 00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:59,040 Speaker 1: not even trying to stop this. In fact, they're encouraging it, 476 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,240 Speaker 1: and they know are encouraging it, and they did not 477 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 1: face the wrath of the voters in the mid term. Oh, 478 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 1: it was about our democracy. Yeah, do you have a 479 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 1: country if you don't have borders because we don't have borders? 480 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:14,959 Speaker 1: Right now? How long does that last? All right? Well, 481 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 1: let's talk about Christmas gifts for a second.

That's from Flagstaff, Errorzona, Less, you have 516 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:02,440 Speaker 1: some thoughts on the border situation and all the rest 517 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:05,320 Speaker 1: of it. What's going on? Good morning, Buck, Marry Christmas 518 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 1: to you and Clay christ We're talking to the story 519 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 1: of Mayor Eric Adams wanting five billion dollars of federal 520 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:17,280 Speaker 1: money to address an issue of thirty thousand illegal immigrants. 521 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:20,719 Speaker 1: So we take that value, that becomes one hundred and 522 00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 1: sixty six thousand, roughly for every single one that they 523 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:27,480 Speaker 1: are dealing with. We take that math and we extrapolate 524 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 1: it to twelve million illegal gotaways in the United States. 525 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 1: That becomes a true two trillion dollar tax bill for America. 526 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 1: I don't have that in my back pocket. That seems 527 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,800 Speaker 1: like a lot of money, even by federal government standards, 528 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 1: which is definitely saying something. Thanks for calling in Less. 529 00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 1: Look the back of the napkin math there does show 530 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:49,920 Speaker 1: this is a massive, a massive expense. And you know, 531 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 1: there was a piece in the New York Post. Maybe 532 00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 1: I'll get into this in the next hour because we've 533 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 1: been asking this question so frequently on the show. Well, 534 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 1: hold on a moment. Why is it that I hear 535 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 1: all of you. I'm sure I've heard this from business 536 00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 1: owners across the country, so hard to find people to 537 00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 1: come into work at businesses that are doing well, that 538 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 1: are making a profit. But it's hard to find people 539 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 1: to keep them doing well and making a profit, even 540 00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 1: when people are trying to pay very competitive wages. Hard 541 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:25,280 Speaker 1: to find workers who want to take a lot of 542 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 1: these jobs. As you know, we're still below labor force 543 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 1: participation pre pandemic, and we have millions of people who 544 00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:36,120 Speaker 1: are not in the labor force and not seeking to 545 00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 1: be in the labor force, which also skews the unemployment 546 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 1: figures a bit, because you have to be trying to 547 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 1: be in the labor force if you're going to be 548 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:50,360 Speaker 1: counted as unemployed. Now, this piece it was I'll pull 549 00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 1: it up. I don't have it off hand here, but 550 00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 1: this piece in the New York Post of some economists 551 00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:02,960 Speaker 1: who pulled together the data says that, for example, because 552 00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 1: because I kept saying, well, because the COVID money is 553 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,040 Speaker 1: largely run out in a lot of places, right, the 554 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:11,720 Speaker 1: special funding for COVID stay at home programs, which was crazy, 555 00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 1: but that's what we did. It's actually the expanse. A 556 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,959 Speaker 1: lot of that has become semi permanent. People have gotten 557 00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 1: on and gotten used to being on the different welfare 558 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 1: roles that are out there and the different state services 559 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 1: that are out there, to the point where in New Jersey, 560 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 1: this is one that came up that I remember. This 561 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:37,320 Speaker 1: really stuck out to me. According to this analysis in 562 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:42,440 Speaker 1: the New York Post today, if you if you're a 563 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:45,760 Speaker 1: family of four in New Jersey and you're able to 564 00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 1: connect unemployment family for New Jersey unemployment and get the 565 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:56,960 Speaker 1: Obamacare subsidy, you're getting the equivalent of one hundred and 566 00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 1: eight thousand dollars a year in benefits. One hundred thousand plus. 567 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 1: I mean, I think about, you know, my first job, 568 00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:12,879 Speaker 1: I think I barely was making forty forty grand. Right, 569 00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 1: so you can make in New Jersey right now a 570 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:21,160 Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars in benefits in direct payments in subsidies 571 00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:24,440 Speaker 1: as a family of four if you do nothing for 572 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 1: the entirety of of a year. And they say, another 573 00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 1: problem with the way this all goes is that people 574 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 1: come in and out of the labor force to get 575 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:38,920 Speaker 1: access to the benefits. So maybe they do the hourly 576 00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 1: work they have to for it varies by state, but 577 00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 1: let's say you work in a classic one, right, You're 578 00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:47,480 Speaker 1: you're working at a restaurant, some capacity as a as 579 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:51,239 Speaker 1: a server, or in the service industry, and you just 580 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:54,040 Speaker 1: got six months of all the benefits you can possibly get. 581 00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:56,800 Speaker 1: Maybe you go back to work for another six months, 582 00:34:56,840 --> 00:35:00,279 Speaker 1: but now you can go back on the unemployment role 583 00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:02,640 Speaker 1: for another six months and get all those benefits again. 584 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,960 Speaker 1: You create this cycle, and it is not a virtuous 585 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:09,840 Speaker 1: one of people having to assess whether they are getting 586 00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:14,440 Speaker 1: more for not working than working. This is very real 587 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:17,640 Speaker 1: and this is why we've seen so many problems since 588 00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:22,080 Speaker 1: the pandemic, in particular getting employees who want to come 589 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:24,520 Speaker 1: in to do jobs that employers need them to do. 590 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 1: Bill in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, Bill, what's going on? 591 00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:32,560 Speaker 1: Guys just wanted to I'll get right to the point. 592 00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:38,000 Speaker 1: Why can't we start formulating a deportation plan? I mean, 593 00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 1: if we're going to control the purse strings, why can't 594 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:44,400 Speaker 1: we stop the funding all the freebees and maybe throwing 595 00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 1: something to find the employers that hire these I think 596 00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 1: many of them will probably self deport if they Let's 597 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 1: let's just be very clear about this for a second. 598 00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:58,520 Speaker 1: But you ask a very good question, what is the 599 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:02,960 Speaker 1: Republican plan right now now for immigration. That's not an 600 00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:06,640 Speaker 1: easy question. What do the Republicans want to do about 601 00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 1: illegal immigration? Right now? They'll say secure the border, Okay, 602 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:13,839 Speaker 1: that's step one, which we can't even seem to get 603 00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:18,160 Speaker 1: to that step. What step two? We've got under Biden 604 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 1: a loan five million illegals last two years. What happens? 605 00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 1: What are we going to do now? I don't think 606 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:27,640 Speaker 1: they have thought this through it all. I think that 607 00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 1: there are a lot of Republicans who are cowards on 608 00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:32,359 Speaker 1: the issue and don't want to take a vote one 609 00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:35,160 Speaker 1: way or the other. And I think you're going to 610 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:38,920 Speaker 1: see a Biden administration that is pushing very hard to 611 00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:41,480 Speaker 1: see if they can get enough Republicans to come on 612 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:45,200 Speaker 1: board for some kind of an amnesty, and they're you're 613 00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 1: gonna see a lot of Republicans that are gonna all 614 00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:51,080 Speaker 1: of a sudden be exposed as people without a real 615 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 1: plan or idea. But what's supposed to happen here? Let's 616 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 1: talk January six, commission shift, stuff like that that's coming up.
