WEBVTT - Mainstream Democrats Are Now Socialists

0:00:01.000 --> 0:00:15.920
<v Speaker 1>You are entering the freedom hunt. President Trump's lawyer Michael

0:00:16.000 --> 0:00:19.239
<v Speaker 1>Cohen begins his testimony today on Capitol Hill. It was

0:00:19.280 --> 0:00:22.360
<v Speaker 1>behind closed doors, but already the speculation about what he's

0:00:22.400 --> 0:00:25.520
<v Speaker 1>gonna say about that Donald is flying fast and furious.

0:00:25.600 --> 0:00:27.680
<v Speaker 1>We'll get to that. But also coming up right now,

0:00:28.080 --> 0:00:31.840
<v Speaker 1>how does socialism come to America? Bernie Standers has a

0:00:31.880 --> 0:00:34.120
<v Speaker 1>plan and the Green New Deal is a big part

0:00:34.159 --> 0:00:36.920
<v Speaker 1>of it. We got that more coming up. This is

0:00:36.960 --> 0:00:40.199
<v Speaker 1>the buck Sexton Show, where the mission or mission is

0:00:40.240 --> 0:00:47.040
<v Speaker 1>to decode what really matters with actionable intelligence. Make no mistake, America,

0:00:47.920 --> 0:00:51.080
<v Speaker 1>You're a great American. Again, the buck Sexton Show begins.

0:00:53.360 --> 0:01:04.360
<v Speaker 1>Remember that climate change is real, is an existential threat

0:01:04.400 --> 0:01:08.040
<v Speaker 1>to our country and the entire planet. The biggest threat

0:01:08.360 --> 0:01:12.720
<v Speaker 1>to our prosperity in this twenty first century is climate change.

0:01:12.880 --> 0:01:15.640
<v Speaker 1>And if we don't have the bravery and the courage

0:01:15.760 --> 0:01:18.679
<v Speaker 1>and the heart and the determination to take it on

0:01:18.920 --> 0:01:21.760
<v Speaker 1>as the most important challenge of our lifetime, then we

0:01:21.800 --> 0:01:25.160
<v Speaker 1>don't care about those children. Climate change is an existential

0:01:25.200 --> 0:01:28.000
<v Speaker 1>threat to us as human beings. The threat is real,

0:01:28.440 --> 0:01:32.000
<v Speaker 1>and it is existential, and we need to take action now.

0:01:32.400 --> 0:01:36.440
<v Speaker 1>And I'm quoting him now America, this is the president.

0:01:36.840 --> 0:01:40.800
<v Speaker 1>America will never be a socialist country. Will that hold

0:01:40.840 --> 0:01:44.880
<v Speaker 1>true if you're elected president? If I am elected president,

0:01:45.160 --> 0:01:47.880
<v Speaker 1>we will have a nation in which all people have

0:01:48.040 --> 0:01:51.320
<v Speaker 1>healthcare as a right, whether Trump likes it or not.

0:01:51.920 --> 0:01:55.080
<v Speaker 1>We are going to make public colleges and universities to

0:01:55.240 --> 0:01:59.200
<v Speaker 1>uition free. We are going to raise the minimum wage

0:01:59.240 --> 0:02:02.280
<v Speaker 1>through to our living wage of at least fifteen bucks

0:02:02.280 --> 0:02:04.520
<v Speaker 1>an hour. And whether Trump likes it or not, when

0:02:04.560 --> 0:02:07.280
<v Speaker 1>I talk about human rights, you know what that also means.

0:02:07.600 --> 0:02:10.799
<v Speaker 1>It means that our kids and grandchildren have the human

0:02:10.919 --> 0:02:13.920
<v Speaker 1>right to grow up in a planet that is healthy

0:02:14.000 --> 0:02:19.520
<v Speaker 1>and habitable. You know, Bernie is serious when he's yelling

0:02:19.960 --> 0:02:23.600
<v Speaker 1>loudly about free this and free that and free everything.

0:02:23.639 --> 0:02:27.800
<v Speaker 1>And welcome to the buck Sexton Show. He's a man

0:02:27.919 --> 0:02:31.440
<v Speaker 1>also from New York buck Sexton, although technically right now

0:02:31.480 --> 0:02:34.800
<v Speaker 1>he's in DC. Why is he lying? Must be? Must

0:02:34.840 --> 0:02:38.000
<v Speaker 1>be because he spends so much time with Trump. Hey, everybody,

0:02:38.000 --> 0:02:40.000
<v Speaker 1>welcome to the buck Sexton Show. Though great to have

0:02:40.080 --> 0:02:43.679
<v Speaker 1>you here. That was intentional the top of the show there, well,

0:02:43.680 --> 0:02:45.680
<v Speaker 1>it always is intentional, but but there was a reason

0:02:45.720 --> 0:02:50.920
<v Speaker 1>why we wanted to play for you. All of the

0:02:51.040 --> 0:02:54.120
<v Speaker 1>hysteria around the Green New Deal and socialism and all

0:02:54.120 --> 0:03:00.480
<v Speaker 1>this stuff. Okay, all of that, and then Bernie anders

0:03:01.680 --> 0:03:05.960
<v Speaker 1>not being willing or a better way to say this,

0:03:06.000 --> 0:03:11.320
<v Speaker 1>Buck speak of the English being unwilling to say that

0:03:11.440 --> 0:03:13.520
<v Speaker 1>this will not be a socialist country. The door was

0:03:13.560 --> 0:03:17.040
<v Speaker 1>wide open there, Burne. You know you had wolf Blitzer

0:03:17.639 --> 0:03:19.920
<v Speaker 1>reading off the Q card like someone who's still working

0:03:19.960 --> 0:03:23.720
<v Speaker 1>on his English. Wolf Blitzer wants to know if this will,

0:03:23.800 --> 0:03:26.840
<v Speaker 1>as Donald Trump says, never be a socialist country. Bernie says,

0:03:28.080 --> 0:03:32.280
<v Speaker 1>a whole bunch of things that sound pretty socialist. So

0:03:32.360 --> 0:03:35.640
<v Speaker 1>on the one hand, you have all this Green New

0:03:35.720 --> 0:03:41.960
<v Speaker 1>Deal lunacy, I mean, crazy talk, existential threat. Oh, let's

0:03:42.000 --> 0:03:45.720
<v Speaker 1>deployed twelve year olds may Mommy told me that unles,

0:03:46.320 --> 0:03:49.760
<v Speaker 1>unless we all take bicycles to work and the cowstop farting,

0:03:49.800 --> 0:03:53.640
<v Speaker 1>we're all gonna die. This is terrible, the telling children

0:03:53.640 --> 0:03:56.760
<v Speaker 1>this stuff. This is twelve year olds, ten year olds.

0:03:57.320 --> 0:04:01.320
<v Speaker 1>I should be thinking about Santa and you know whatever

0:04:01.400 --> 0:04:03.240
<v Speaker 1>games kids that are ten or twelve play. I have

0:04:03.280 --> 0:04:05.920
<v Speaker 1>no idea. I'm starting to turn into that uncle who

0:04:05.960 --> 0:04:08.480
<v Speaker 1>like doesn't never gets the kids the cool presence because

0:04:08.480 --> 0:04:11.120
<v Speaker 1>I just don't know what kids like, you know, whatever

0:04:11.160 --> 0:04:13.240
<v Speaker 1>kids do these days at ten, you know, play sports,

0:04:13.320 --> 0:04:17.360
<v Speaker 1>run outside, you know, go skin your knee, riding a bike,

0:04:17.400 --> 0:04:23.640
<v Speaker 1>you know that kind of stuff. There's a reason why

0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:30.520
<v Speaker 1>we're hearing about all this craziness about the Green New

0:04:30.640 --> 0:04:35.760
<v Speaker 1>Deal and how there needs to be this imminent action,

0:04:36.040 --> 0:04:41.840
<v Speaker 1>immediate severe action on climate change at the same time

0:04:41.880 --> 0:04:45.520
<v Speaker 1>when we're also being told more openly than ever that

0:04:45.560 --> 0:04:51.520
<v Speaker 1>the country needs to be a democratic socialist state, that

0:04:51.600 --> 0:04:55.360
<v Speaker 1>we need a democratic socialist in the White House. Let

0:04:55.400 --> 0:04:58.880
<v Speaker 1>me say this to you. Can you think of a

0:04:58.960 --> 0:05:02.840
<v Speaker 1>better way to get this country to fall into the

0:05:02.880 --> 0:05:11.680
<v Speaker 1>trap of socialism then through the environment and environmental extremism.

0:05:11.720 --> 0:05:14.880
<v Speaker 1>If you were trying to come up with a way

0:05:15.640 --> 0:05:21.600
<v Speaker 1>to make people think that the country is in desperate

0:05:21.680 --> 0:05:26.840
<v Speaker 1>need of a dramatic overhaul of the economy that will

0:05:26.880 --> 0:05:32.719
<v Speaker 1>put the government in charge of basically everything, could you

0:05:32.839 --> 0:05:37.080
<v Speaker 1>do better than to have the entirety of the left

0:05:37.120 --> 0:05:45.280
<v Speaker 1>wing news media apparatus, the Democratic Party, college campuses, Hollywood,

0:05:45.440 --> 0:05:50.080
<v Speaker 1>all of it mobilized behind this idea that we are

0:05:50.200 --> 0:05:54.640
<v Speaker 1>going to be extinct as a species, We are going

0:05:54.640 --> 0:05:58.640
<v Speaker 1>to cease to exist unless we put the government in

0:05:58.760 --> 0:06:06.480
<v Speaker 1>charge of everything everything. That's the beauty for the status

0:06:07.400 --> 0:06:12.520
<v Speaker 1>of climate change hysteria, climate change alarmism. What is not

0:06:12.640 --> 0:06:16.080
<v Speaker 1>in the purview of the government. What can the government?

0:06:16.160 --> 0:06:18.479
<v Speaker 1>The government can tell you what products you can use

0:06:18.839 --> 0:06:22.520
<v Speaker 1>in your business, in your home, what kind of energy

0:06:22.560 --> 0:06:25.839
<v Speaker 1>you can use, how much energy you can use. The

0:06:25.920 --> 0:06:29.359
<v Speaker 1>government can intervene in your day to day habits. The

0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:34.039
<v Speaker 1>government can decide what is too much for you to have.

0:06:34.680 --> 0:06:38.159
<v Speaker 1>Your carbon footprint is too large, your house is too big,

0:06:38.400 --> 0:06:41.640
<v Speaker 1>you have too many cars. Only one car for you,

0:06:43.440 --> 0:06:45.479
<v Speaker 1>Maybe a car that you have to share, maybe a

0:06:45.560 --> 0:06:50.240
<v Speaker 1>prius even sorry, I can't help it. Take digs at

0:06:50.240 --> 0:06:53.839
<v Speaker 1>the prious folks. Sometimes I know, great gas mileage. The

0:06:53.880 --> 0:06:55.560
<v Speaker 1>ugliest car I've ever seen in my life, but great

0:06:55.560 --> 0:07:01.240
<v Speaker 1>gas mileage. This is a perfect You could not think

0:07:01.240 --> 0:07:05.520
<v Speaker 1>of a better plot, really for the left and these

0:07:05.680 --> 0:07:11.120
<v Speaker 1>statists to find a way to make the country not

0:07:11.200 --> 0:07:14.800
<v Speaker 1>just go toward democratic socialism, but put us on a

0:07:14.840 --> 0:07:19.440
<v Speaker 1>pathway to full on socialism where the government has control

0:07:19.760 --> 0:07:22.680
<v Speaker 1>of the means of production as well as the distribution,

0:07:24.080 --> 0:07:27.880
<v Speaker 1>and where there's nothing outside of the government's purview. And

0:07:28.040 --> 0:07:31.880
<v Speaker 1>keep in mind that even failure to follow through on

0:07:31.960 --> 0:07:38.280
<v Speaker 1>the promises that this new green socialist utopia that they're

0:07:38.280 --> 0:07:41.320
<v Speaker 1>telling us about, even when they can't accomplish the emissions

0:07:41.360 --> 0:07:44.080
<v Speaker 1>reductions that they say they will, and even when they

0:07:44.120 --> 0:07:48.200
<v Speaker 1>cannot create millions of green new jobs. I keep hearing this.

0:07:48.400 --> 0:07:51.400
<v Speaker 1>We had a billionaire left winger named Stier come into

0:07:51.400 --> 0:07:53.400
<v Speaker 1>the Hill today. I didn't get to interview him because

0:07:53.440 --> 0:07:55.360
<v Speaker 1>he only wanted to only wanted to talk to my

0:07:55.440 --> 0:08:00.680
<v Speaker 1>co host. But he's saying that unless you take dramatic

0:08:02.560 --> 0:08:06.560
<v Speaker 1>and you know, severe action on climate change, he could

0:08:06.560 --> 0:08:11.040
<v Speaker 1>never support you. Well, what better way could there be

0:08:11.160 --> 0:08:13.000
<v Speaker 1>than to put the government in charge of everything than

0:08:13.080 --> 0:08:19.280
<v Speaker 1>to say that we are going to be extinct unless

0:08:19.400 --> 0:08:23.560
<v Speaker 1>they are in control of all of these things that

0:08:24.280 --> 0:08:27.240
<v Speaker 1>the very very rich of course right now, who are Democrats,

0:08:27.280 --> 0:08:29.720
<v Speaker 1>will get an exemption from all this, the Tom Styars

0:08:29.760 --> 0:08:32.760
<v Speaker 1>of the world, because they're so necessary in their messaging.

0:08:32.800 --> 0:08:38.760
<v Speaker 1>You see, where is the co two in our economy?

0:08:40.120 --> 0:08:43.000
<v Speaker 1>What does what if we are really worried that the

0:08:43.040 --> 0:08:45.440
<v Speaker 1>world is going to end, if we're gonna make ten

0:08:45.480 --> 0:08:49.440
<v Speaker 1>and twelve year olds cry, little kids, grade school kids

0:08:49.480 --> 0:08:51.640
<v Speaker 1>cry as well as teach them to be rude to

0:08:51.679 --> 0:08:55.160
<v Speaker 1>sitting us senators, because we're so desperate to get this

0:08:55.280 --> 0:08:59.280
<v Speaker 1>messaging out there. Where does most of the co two

0:09:00.040 --> 0:09:04.880
<v Speaker 1>worried about come from. The two biggest areas are transportation

0:09:05.600 --> 0:09:09.360
<v Speaker 1>and the creation of energy. Well, if they can control

0:09:10.200 --> 0:09:16.520
<v Speaker 1>transportation and they can control the energy flow, they have

0:09:17.440 --> 0:09:25.320
<v Speaker 1>a stranglehold on the lifeblood of our economic activity. And

0:09:25.440 --> 0:09:28.720
<v Speaker 1>as they are unable to hit the marks that they

0:09:28.720 --> 0:09:30.520
<v Speaker 1>set for themselves, so they'll just say, well, we need

0:09:30.559 --> 0:09:33.480
<v Speaker 1>more control. They're never going to They're never going to

0:09:33.520 --> 0:09:37.440
<v Speaker 1>loosen their grip if they can get this. Bernie Sanders

0:09:37.480 --> 0:09:41.520
<v Speaker 1>and the rest of them are serious about this. Occasio Cortez. Yes,

0:09:41.679 --> 0:09:45.680
<v Speaker 1>she is an ignoramus, but we need to take her

0:09:45.960 --> 0:09:48.720
<v Speaker 1>seriously because the damage that she will do to this

0:09:48.800 --> 0:09:59.200
<v Speaker 1>country if her ideology continues to spread is serious. There

0:09:59.200 --> 0:10:01.440
<v Speaker 1>are many democra grants now they won't admit it because

0:10:01.440 --> 0:10:03.920
<v Speaker 1>it's not yet popular, who wish that we would be

0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:07.199
<v Speaker 1>a socialist country. They think we're very, very rich, so

0:10:07.280 --> 0:10:09.640
<v Speaker 1>we don't have to worry about being Venezuela. We're just

0:10:09.760 --> 0:10:13.880
<v Speaker 1>going to be a giant version of Denmark with a

0:10:13.960 --> 0:10:18.080
<v Speaker 1>lot less social cohesion, I might add, and a much

0:10:18.160 --> 0:10:23.679
<v Speaker 1>higher tolerance for corruption and government, government bureaucrats who are

0:10:23.760 --> 0:10:29.840
<v Speaker 1>lethargic at best. These Norwegian country, or rather these Scandinavian countries,

0:10:29.920 --> 0:10:33.839
<v Speaker 1>Norway as a country. These Scandinavian countries are known for

0:10:33.960 --> 0:10:36.560
<v Speaker 1>having more efficient government services than we do, on a

0:10:36.640 --> 0:10:39.560
<v Speaker 1>much smaller scale than we would have to have. And

0:10:39.640 --> 0:10:42.080
<v Speaker 1>they also have much more liberalized economies when it comes

0:10:42.080 --> 0:10:44.000
<v Speaker 1>to the corporate sphere than we do in many ways,

0:10:45.040 --> 0:10:48.520
<v Speaker 1>lower corporate tax burden, oh yes, it's true, much higher

0:10:48.559 --> 0:10:51.839
<v Speaker 1>individual tax burden, but that also is true across the

0:10:51.880 --> 0:10:58.280
<v Speaker 1>middle class. If if, in fact, the Democrats could get

0:10:59.720 --> 0:11:03.120
<v Speaker 1>a presidential candidate through who could make this who could

0:11:03.320 --> 0:11:07.520
<v Speaker 1>make this transformation complete. Remember, Obama promised to fundamentally transform

0:11:07.559 --> 0:11:10.040
<v Speaker 1>the country, and he took us quite a ways in

0:11:10.080 --> 0:11:14.800
<v Speaker 1>that direction. To speak of socialism in the Obama era,

0:11:15.160 --> 0:11:19.440
<v Speaker 1>to speak of Obama Care as merely a stepping stone

0:11:19.440 --> 0:11:21.760
<v Speaker 1>on the way to Medicare for Medicare for all, which

0:11:21.800 --> 0:11:28.280
<v Speaker 1>is really just single pair, that was wrong. It was

0:11:28.320 --> 0:11:30.480
<v Speaker 1>a lie. It was racist. Oh no, actually it was

0:11:30.480 --> 0:11:33.400
<v Speaker 1>all true. It wasn't racist at all, It was just reality.

0:11:34.880 --> 0:11:41.080
<v Speaker 1>Socialism was making its first run on this country under

0:11:41.120 --> 0:11:44.160
<v Speaker 1>the Obama era in a way that was open in

0:11:44.200 --> 0:11:46.920
<v Speaker 1>a way that we could see that was obvious. They

0:11:46.960 --> 0:11:49.000
<v Speaker 1>just weren't calling it that. Now they're calling it that

0:11:49.280 --> 0:11:51.560
<v Speaker 1>and the Green New Deal. The reason there's such an

0:11:51.559 --> 0:11:54.679
<v Speaker 1>emphasis on this, on a plan that is so full

0:11:54.720 --> 0:11:58.880
<v Speaker 1>of holes, that is so potous, guy and silly and

0:11:59.040 --> 0:12:03.160
<v Speaker 1>worthy of ridicule. The reason for this is because it

0:12:03.280 --> 0:12:08.120
<v Speaker 1>is the single best, fastest way now that they've already

0:12:08.160 --> 0:12:12.880
<v Speaker 1>gotten us rolling down the hill towards single payer, towards

0:12:12.880 --> 0:12:16.640
<v Speaker 1>socialized medicine. That's where we're heading because they're not going

0:12:16.679 --> 0:12:20.319
<v Speaker 1>to be able to give the healthcare for the Medicare

0:12:20.320 --> 0:12:21.520
<v Speaker 1>for all is not going to work. They don't have

0:12:21.520 --> 0:12:26.040
<v Speaker 1>the practitioners, they don't have the means of production, if

0:12:26.080 --> 0:12:29.520
<v Speaker 1>you will, in healthcare to fulfill the obligations that they

0:12:29.520 --> 0:12:32.120
<v Speaker 1>want to create for all Americans. They don't have it.

0:12:32.160 --> 0:12:33.599
<v Speaker 1>So what will they then do, Well, now we're just

0:12:33.640 --> 0:12:35.720
<v Speaker 1>going to have to make them all employees of the state.

0:12:35.760 --> 0:12:39.000
<v Speaker 1>They will have to control the means of production of healthcare.

0:12:39.480 --> 0:12:42.160
<v Speaker 1>They'll have to control the hospitals, and then we will

0:12:42.200 --> 0:12:45.240
<v Speaker 1>be in socialized medicine. That is socialized medicine. But how

0:12:45.320 --> 0:12:48.960
<v Speaker 1>do you get the rest of the economy. You create

0:12:49.000 --> 0:12:54.760
<v Speaker 1>a false crisis. That's right, the false climate crisis that

0:12:54.920 --> 0:12:58.480
<v Speaker 1>you say is the single most important thing in the

0:12:58.520 --> 0:13:01.280
<v Speaker 1>world right now, and that's an exaggeration that has taken

0:13:01.320 --> 0:13:05.360
<v Speaker 1>them exactly at their word. The most important problem we

0:13:05.880 --> 0:13:09.480
<v Speaker 1>as human beings as a species face, and the only

0:13:09.520 --> 0:13:14.840
<v Speaker 1>way to tackle it is dramatic increases in government control

0:13:15.400 --> 0:13:19.200
<v Speaker 1>of the most central parts, most central components of the

0:13:19.240 --> 0:13:24.320
<v Speaker 1>rest of our modern economy, energy production and transportation. That's

0:13:24.360 --> 0:13:28.959
<v Speaker 1>where most of the CO two emissions comes from. They

0:13:30.000 --> 0:13:32.839
<v Speaker 1>want to be in charge of our healthcare. They want

0:13:32.840 --> 0:13:37.480
<v Speaker 1>to be in charge of energy production, and then the

0:13:37.600 --> 0:13:40.960
<v Speaker 1>energy used in their production, the manufacturing process. Of course,

0:13:43.600 --> 0:13:46.439
<v Speaker 1>they want to be in charge of the price of goods,

0:13:47.240 --> 0:13:50.240
<v Speaker 1>because a lot of fossil fuels that are used are

0:13:50.240 --> 0:13:53.760
<v Speaker 1>actually in products themselves. And then they want to tell

0:13:53.800 --> 0:13:55.720
<v Speaker 1>us how far we can drive, what we can do

0:13:55.760 --> 0:13:58.920
<v Speaker 1>in terms of transportation, where we can go, what the

0:13:58.960 --> 0:14:02.280
<v Speaker 1>price will be, what the taxes will be. This is

0:14:02.400 --> 0:14:07.000
<v Speaker 1>all about control and control on a pathway toward full

0:14:07.640 --> 0:14:12.800
<v Speaker 1>on socialism that they may never actually get. There is

0:14:13.040 --> 0:14:16.120
<v Speaker 1>not any comfort to us because this is where they

0:14:16.160 --> 0:14:21.400
<v Speaker 1>want to go, and even taking us halfway toward a

0:14:21.480 --> 0:14:29.240
<v Speaker 1>full on socialist state would be incredibly destructive and would

0:14:29.320 --> 0:14:31.960
<v Speaker 1>make us less free, and with that the rest of

0:14:32.000 --> 0:14:33.960
<v Speaker 1>the world would be less free. Because we are still,

0:14:34.000 --> 0:14:37.880
<v Speaker 1>despite all of our flaws and imperfections, the single greatest

0:14:37.920 --> 0:14:46.160
<v Speaker 1>testament ever created to human liberty this country. We've got

0:14:46.200 --> 0:14:53.560
<v Speaker 1>more on socialism Cohen's testimony, Venezuela, North Korea, Trump and Hannoia.

0:14:53.640 --> 0:14:56.560
<v Speaker 1>We got a jam packed show, which is why you

0:14:56.600 --> 0:14:58.120
<v Speaker 1>come here because you know we're going to cover all

0:14:58.160 --> 0:15:01.560
<v Speaker 1>the topics and then some, so stay with me. To you,

0:15:05.320 --> 0:15:08.080
<v Speaker 1>we need to have medicare for all. That's just the

0:15:08.080 --> 0:15:11.240
<v Speaker 1>bottom up. Who of us has not had that situation

0:15:11.280 --> 0:15:13.600
<v Speaker 1>where you got to wait for approval and the doctor says, well,

0:15:13.800 --> 0:15:15.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if your insurance company is going to

0:15:15.680 --> 0:15:18.560
<v Speaker 1>cover this. Let's eliminate all of that. Let's move on.

0:15:18.680 --> 0:15:22.000
<v Speaker 1>We've got to critically re examine ICE and its role

0:15:22.200 --> 0:15:24.200
<v Speaker 1>and the way that it is being administered and the

0:15:24.240 --> 0:15:26.080
<v Speaker 1>work it is doing, and we need to probably think

0:15:26.120 --> 0:15:36.000
<v Speaker 1>about starting from scratch. Education is a fundamental right, and

0:15:36.040 --> 0:15:39.520
<v Speaker 1>we will guarantee that right with universal pre K and

0:15:39.720 --> 0:15:44.760
<v Speaker 1>debt free college. We have a history of racism in America,

0:15:45.000 --> 0:15:47.800
<v Speaker 1>so you are for some type. Yes I am, Yes,

0:15:47.840 --> 0:15:56.720
<v Speaker 1>I am. Now that's establishment favorite on the among the Democrats.

0:15:57.240 --> 0:16:04.400
<v Speaker 1>Kamala Harris just citing one after another of these policies

0:16:04.440 --> 0:16:09.720
<v Speaker 1>that Bernie Sanders will be in favor of Medicare for all,

0:16:10.720 --> 0:16:14.840
<v Speaker 1>start from scratch with immigrations and customs enforcements, sociates, single payer,

0:16:15.480 --> 0:16:21.720
<v Speaker 1>open borders, universal pre k, and just paying for everyone school,

0:16:22.040 --> 0:16:25.480
<v Speaker 1>no college debt. Where is this stuff all gonna come

0:16:25.480 --> 0:16:27.600
<v Speaker 1>Where's the money going to come from for all of this?

0:16:27.720 --> 0:16:29.720
<v Speaker 1>Who's going to pay the people that are supposed to

0:16:29.720 --> 0:16:35.120
<v Speaker 1>be delivering these services? So I want to make it

0:16:35.240 --> 0:16:39.920
<v Speaker 1>very clear it's not just aoc Ocazio Cortez and Bernie Sanders.

0:16:40.320 --> 0:16:43.400
<v Speaker 1>This is now the Democrat Party mainstream. I know today

0:16:43.440 --> 0:16:46.320
<v Speaker 1>there was some talk about whether whether Joe Biden's going

0:16:46.360 --> 0:16:48.480
<v Speaker 1>to get in the race or not, as if we're

0:16:48.520 --> 0:16:50.800
<v Speaker 1>supposed to be excited about this. I mean, who cares?

0:16:50.840 --> 0:16:53.840
<v Speaker 1>But anyway, there's this talk about, oh, is Joe Biden,

0:16:54.000 --> 0:16:55.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, blue collar Joe, Is he gonna throw his

0:16:55.920 --> 0:16:59.200
<v Speaker 1>hat in the ring? And I just if I could say,

0:17:00.320 --> 0:17:04.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that Biden really knows how he's going

0:17:04.520 --> 0:17:08.560
<v Speaker 1>to play this, because if he tries to run among

0:17:08.600 --> 0:17:10.639
<v Speaker 1>the Democrats at the stage of the primary as a

0:17:10.760 --> 0:17:15.320
<v Speaker 1>kind of Hillary Clinton esque establishment, you know, corrupt, pay

0:17:15.359 --> 0:17:22.119
<v Speaker 1>to play corporatist, which is what Hillary was. He's not

0:17:22.119 --> 0:17:25.119
<v Speaker 1>going to make it through the primary. But is Joe

0:17:25.160 --> 0:17:28.200
<v Speaker 1>Biden going to sound authentic when he all of a

0:17:28.280 --> 0:17:32.800
<v Speaker 1>sudden is saying free college, you know, free healthcare, all

0:17:32.800 --> 0:17:37.480
<v Speaker 1>this stuff, rebuild ice from scratch. He can't compete with

0:17:37.560 --> 0:17:40.159
<v Speaker 1>the left wing loons here. I don't even think he

0:17:40.200 --> 0:17:44.720
<v Speaker 1>can pretend to be looney and left wing enough to

0:17:44.840 --> 0:17:47.080
<v Speaker 1>be in there to be in contention with some of them.

0:17:48.119 --> 0:17:52.200
<v Speaker 1>But this is now the mainstream. And that's why while

0:17:52.320 --> 0:17:54.440
<v Speaker 1>you and I sit here and say this Green New

0:17:54.520 --> 0:17:58.200
<v Speaker 1>Deal thing, you know, harkening back to FDR, that president

0:17:58.240 --> 0:17:59.840
<v Speaker 1>that we're all supposed to think is so great, even

0:17:59.840 --> 0:18:03.040
<v Speaker 1>though you know, the internment camps and the court packing threats,

0:18:03.040 --> 0:18:06.160
<v Speaker 1>and there's a lot of stuff about FDR that somehow

0:18:06.200 --> 0:18:08.240
<v Speaker 1>gets left out of this. Oh that the new that

0:18:08.640 --> 0:18:12.040
<v Speaker 1>the programs you put in place didn't actually save us

0:18:12.040 --> 0:18:13.800
<v Speaker 1>from the Great Depression. That's a good place to start,

0:18:13.880 --> 0:18:16.600
<v Speaker 1>isn't it. But the notion of a Green New Deal

0:18:17.320 --> 0:18:20.440
<v Speaker 1>is not the fringe. This is sent for the Democratic

0:18:20.440 --> 0:18:24.960
<v Speaker 1>Party because the Democrats are not liberal, they are statists,

0:18:25.400 --> 0:18:28.399
<v Speaker 1>they are socialists. They are not the Blues, they are

0:18:28.440 --> 0:18:32.320
<v Speaker 1>the reds. And we are finally seeing this happen. Now.

0:18:32.480 --> 0:18:35.520
<v Speaker 1>Now we are at a tipping point. Let's speak truthfully

0:18:35.560 --> 0:18:42.480
<v Speaker 1>about it. Morning coffee is an American institution. I drink

0:18:42.520 --> 0:18:44.200
<v Speaker 1>it every day and that's why when it comes to

0:18:44.280 --> 0:18:47.920
<v Speaker 1>start in my day right full of freedom, promise and patriotism,

0:18:48.000 --> 0:18:51.320
<v Speaker 1>I reach for the most delicious, most American coffee on

0:18:51.359 --> 0:18:54.880
<v Speaker 1>the market, Black Rifle Coffee. This is how I get

0:18:54.920 --> 0:18:57.560
<v Speaker 1>my day started. I tell you it's delicious coffee, and

0:18:57.640 --> 0:19:00.399
<v Speaker 1>I'm somebody that really cares what is coffee tastes like. Also,

0:19:00.520 --> 0:19:02.520
<v Speaker 1>it's got quite a punch to it. But if you

0:19:02.600 --> 0:19:06.000
<v Speaker 1>want decaff, you can get decaf. Two try Black Rifle Coffee.

0:19:06.040 --> 0:19:09.120
<v Speaker 1>This will become your coffee of choice, just like it

0:19:09.160 --> 0:19:11.560
<v Speaker 1>is for me. I get it delivered every month. It's

0:19:11.640 --> 0:19:15.560
<v Speaker 1>roast to order, guaranteed fresh delivered to your door. And

0:19:15.600 --> 0:19:18.240
<v Speaker 1>while liberals threatened to further tax your hard earned money

0:19:18.240 --> 0:19:21.560
<v Speaker 1>with their socialist agenda, Black Rifle Coffee is fueling the

0:19:21.600 --> 0:19:24.800
<v Speaker 1>fight for freedom by upping their offer to twenty percent off.

0:19:24.840 --> 0:19:28.480
<v Speaker 1>It's a great deal. Take advantage by visiting Black Riflecoffee

0:19:28.560 --> 0:19:31.679
<v Speaker 1>dot com slash buck and receive twenty percent off your

0:19:31.800 --> 0:19:35.679
<v Speaker 1>entire order. That's Black Riflecoffee dot com slash buck for

0:19:35.720 --> 0:19:42.920
<v Speaker 1>twenty percent off Black Riflecoffee dot Com slash Buck. We're

0:19:43.000 --> 0:19:47.000
<v Speaker 1>at another inflection point where American justice is either going

0:19:47.040 --> 0:19:51.919
<v Speaker 1>to be indicated or desecrated, and Michael Kohn has answers

0:19:52.000 --> 0:19:55.520
<v Speaker 1>to some of the questions that the American people need

0:19:56.080 --> 0:19:58.840
<v Speaker 1>to know. I just think it's crazy that the first

0:19:58.920 --> 0:20:02.800
<v Speaker 1>witness that the Democrats call to testify before Congress is

0:20:02.840 --> 0:20:06.200
<v Speaker 1>a guy who's been convicted or pled guilty to lying

0:20:06.280 --> 0:20:09.480
<v Speaker 1>to Congress. I mean, it's just crazy. This is about

0:20:09.560 --> 0:20:12.320
<v Speaker 1>trying their best to discredit the President of the United States.

0:20:14.040 --> 0:20:20.720
<v Speaker 1>The Cohen situation unfolds before us right now. Michael Cohen,

0:20:20.800 --> 0:20:25.280
<v Speaker 1>President Trump's personal lawyer, is today he gave testimony about

0:20:26.040 --> 0:20:29.880
<v Speaker 1>well Russia stuff. I guess behind closed doors, and everyone goes, whoo,

0:20:29.960 --> 0:20:31.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what it was. Guess what he's already

0:20:31.840 --> 0:20:33.560
<v Speaker 1>had to tell Mueller whatever he knows about that, and

0:20:33.600 --> 0:20:35.840
<v Speaker 1>there was no collusion. He can't make anything up about

0:20:35.840 --> 0:20:38.520
<v Speaker 1>it because there's nothing to make up. It's a whole

0:20:38.560 --> 0:20:42.000
<v Speaker 1>lot of nothing. I think it's interesting how many people

0:20:42.000 --> 0:20:43.520
<v Speaker 1>on the left don't seem to care that what you

0:20:43.600 --> 0:20:49.119
<v Speaker 1>have here is a lawyer testifying against his clients for

0:20:49.240 --> 0:20:53.000
<v Speaker 1>his own purposes. No one seems to think that this

0:20:53.080 --> 0:20:56.080
<v Speaker 1>is particularly bothersome on the left. No, Democrats are just

0:20:56.080 --> 0:20:57.880
<v Speaker 1>just by the principle of this. And I know, oh,

0:20:58.000 --> 0:21:02.359
<v Speaker 1>buck well, don't be don't be naive. Democrats have no

0:21:02.440 --> 0:21:04.760
<v Speaker 1>principles when it comes to the stuff. I understand that,

0:21:05.359 --> 0:21:08.720
<v Speaker 1>but I have to note that there's something. Certainly, there's

0:21:08.760 --> 0:21:14.000
<v Speaker 1>a funky smell when you have somebody's former lawyer who

0:21:14.080 --> 0:21:19.840
<v Speaker 1>is testifying against him in this way. Okay, it's it's

0:21:19.880 --> 0:21:25.720
<v Speaker 1>certainly problematic, to say the least. Annie McCarthy, our buddy,

0:21:26.200 --> 0:21:28.040
<v Speaker 1>just making the rounds on TV because he's one of

0:21:28.080 --> 0:21:30.160
<v Speaker 1>the best analysts out there on this issue. He was saying,

0:21:30.200 --> 0:21:33.480
<v Speaker 1>by the way, Cohen, he's a big liar, as we

0:21:33.600 --> 0:21:36.800
<v Speaker 1>know Play fourteen. If the prosecutors had thought he was

0:21:36.840 --> 0:21:41.040
<v Speaker 1>a valuable, credible witness, they would have completed a cooperation

0:21:41.080 --> 0:21:43.400
<v Speaker 1>agreement with him. They would have gotten over whatever hump

0:21:43.480 --> 0:21:46.600
<v Speaker 1>there was in the negotiations and signed him up as

0:21:46.600 --> 0:21:50.000
<v Speaker 1>a full fledged cooperator. They declined to do that, and

0:21:50.080 --> 0:21:52.119
<v Speaker 1>I have to think they did that because they didn't

0:21:52.119 --> 0:21:57.320
<v Speaker 1>think he was a very useful or valuable witness. Why

0:21:57.400 --> 0:22:01.119
<v Speaker 1>would anyone think that at this point in time we

0:22:01.160 --> 0:22:05.480
<v Speaker 1>would get some kind of a bombshell revelation about Russia

0:22:05.520 --> 0:22:10.399
<v Speaker 1>collusion from Michael Cohen. We've been through so much of

0:22:10.400 --> 0:22:14.400
<v Speaker 1>this nonsense with the Muller pro Cohen has been hit

0:22:14.560 --> 0:22:19.520
<v Speaker 1>with all kinds of legal you know, legal attacks here.

0:22:19.560 --> 0:22:22.399
<v Speaker 1>I mean, as we know Cohen, it's in trouble for lying,

0:22:22.560 --> 0:22:25.120
<v Speaker 1>for not paying his taxes. He's facing I think five

0:22:25.200 --> 0:22:28.680
<v Speaker 1>years in prison. Southern Dishrict of New York went after him.

0:22:28.720 --> 0:22:32.199
<v Speaker 1>There was no Muller cooperation agreement because he's not a

0:22:32.280 --> 0:22:34.760
<v Speaker 1>cooperating witness for Muller, because he has nothing to offer Muller.

0:22:34.800 --> 0:22:37.840
<v Speaker 1>Because Russia collusion is not just a lie, it's a

0:22:38.160 --> 0:22:43.240
<v Speaker 1>stupid it's a stupid idea to begin with. Okay, it's

0:22:43.240 --> 0:22:46.800
<v Speaker 1>not it's not a good lie. It's not even a

0:22:46.880 --> 0:22:51.120
<v Speaker 1>plausible conspiracy. Of course, the Left doesn't care about any

0:22:51.160 --> 0:22:52.760
<v Speaker 1>of that. They just know that it's a way of

0:22:52.800 --> 0:22:55.879
<v Speaker 1>attacking this administration and doing everything possible to try and

0:22:57.000 --> 0:23:01.280
<v Speaker 1>tear Trunk down. What do they think they're really going

0:23:01.359 --> 0:23:06.399
<v Speaker 1>to find out here? Well, we have been told, and

0:23:06.600 --> 0:23:11.800
<v Speaker 1>the left awaits all of this with breathless anticipation. We

0:23:11.880 --> 0:23:14.280
<v Speaker 1>have been told that Michael Cohen may say that Trump

0:23:14.600 --> 0:23:19.040
<v Speaker 1>was shady in his business dealings, and that he said

0:23:19.119 --> 0:23:23.960
<v Speaker 1>things that would be considered racially insensitive or racist. We

0:23:24.080 --> 0:23:26.400
<v Speaker 1>know that Michael Cohen's a liar because he has said

0:23:26.440 --> 0:23:29.080
<v Speaker 1>he's a liar, and he has been prosecuted for lying

0:23:29.080 --> 0:23:31.960
<v Speaker 1>even under oath. We know that he has no ethics

0:23:32.000 --> 0:23:38.720
<v Speaker 1>because he's a lawyer who was taping his client. I mean,

0:23:39.080 --> 0:23:43.280
<v Speaker 1>this is like somebody who's a psychiatrist who would tape

0:23:43.520 --> 0:23:45.199
<v Speaker 1>the person that goes in to see them. I mean

0:23:45.400 --> 0:23:54.040
<v Speaker 1>it's such a violation, such an absolute disgrace, and yet

0:23:54.119 --> 0:23:56.520
<v Speaker 1>Michael Cohen did that, and the Democrats want us to

0:23:56.520 --> 0:23:59.800
<v Speaker 1>believe that now he's going to come forward and just

0:24:00.200 --> 0:24:03.960
<v Speaker 1>share the whole truth and nothing but the truth, because

0:24:04.040 --> 0:24:08.600
<v Speaker 1>he believes so much in so much in this country,

0:24:09.160 --> 0:24:13.479
<v Speaker 1>in our institutions, They say, Michael Cohen, I see here,

0:24:13.480 --> 0:24:18.879
<v Speaker 1>according to CNN, apologized apologize, according to multiple sources, for

0:24:19.080 --> 0:24:23.080
<v Speaker 1>lying to Congress when he was talking to Congress. When

0:24:23.280 --> 0:24:27.679
<v Speaker 1>will the Democrats get it? This is not going to

0:24:27.760 --> 0:24:32.240
<v Speaker 1>be enough. They're not gonna win based on this. They're

0:24:32.280 --> 0:24:36.720
<v Speaker 1>not going to take Trump down because Michael Cohen says

0:24:36.840 --> 0:24:39.600
<v Speaker 1>nasty things about him, says that he's a bad guy,

0:24:39.760 --> 0:24:43.159
<v Speaker 1>a bad business Pardner, any of these things. It's not

0:24:43.600 --> 0:24:48.600
<v Speaker 1>going to get it done. I think that they've at

0:24:48.680 --> 0:24:52.159
<v Speaker 1>least some of them understand this. But what they also

0:24:52.240 --> 0:24:56.960
<v Speaker 1>understand is that they hate this president so much that

0:24:57.119 --> 0:25:00.880
<v Speaker 1>this is really just about scratching an itch for them.

0:25:01.840 --> 0:25:04.679
<v Speaker 1>This is about they have this desire to bring Trump

0:25:04.760 --> 0:25:08.320
<v Speaker 1>down in whatever way they can, however they can, and

0:25:08.520 --> 0:25:11.159
<v Speaker 1>even if it doesn't work for them the long run

0:25:11.160 --> 0:25:12.840
<v Speaker 1>in terms of the twenty twenty election, and I don't

0:25:12.880 --> 0:25:17.560
<v Speaker 1>think it will. I think it is more likely that

0:25:17.600 --> 0:25:22.320
<v Speaker 1>this anti Trump hysteria, as as it relates to Russia

0:25:22.480 --> 0:25:25.600
<v Speaker 1>and the investigations are going to start. People are tired

0:25:25.680 --> 0:25:27.920
<v Speaker 1>of this. I mean I'm tired of it. I wish

0:25:28.040 --> 0:25:29.480
<v Speaker 1>I want us to move past it, just because I

0:25:29.480 --> 0:25:33.840
<v Speaker 1>don't think it's a it's an interesting intellectual exercise anymore.

0:25:34.680 --> 0:25:39.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that that even having this debate feels

0:25:39.080 --> 0:25:41.359
<v Speaker 1>like a worthy enterprise. The only reason I do it

0:25:41.400 --> 0:25:43.080
<v Speaker 1>here on the show is because we have to, because

0:25:43.119 --> 0:25:47.080
<v Speaker 1>they won't give up, they won't move past it. They

0:25:47.080 --> 0:25:52.520
<v Speaker 1>are still stuck on this. And that's what the next

0:25:52.560 --> 0:25:54.360
<v Speaker 1>few days are going to be about. Oh, they're going

0:25:54.400 --> 0:25:58.760
<v Speaker 1>to just be reporting with glee. They'll be unable to

0:25:58.800 --> 0:26:01.680
<v Speaker 1>disguise their glee. By and Cohen talk about the payments

0:26:01.680 --> 0:26:04.680
<v Speaker 1>to porn stars, the payments to these or ones a

0:26:04.760 --> 0:26:07.600
<v Speaker 1>porn star, one was a pin up model, different different things,

0:26:08.400 --> 0:26:11.959
<v Speaker 1>but the payments to these women and Trump's business practices,

0:26:12.960 --> 0:26:16.320
<v Speaker 1>and what I think the American people are going to

0:26:16.400 --> 0:26:19.520
<v Speaker 1>come away with is why are we supposed to care

0:26:19.560 --> 0:26:23.080
<v Speaker 1>about this? Even even if some of it is true?

0:26:23.920 --> 0:26:25.679
<v Speaker 1>Does that mean that we want to put the Party

0:26:25.720 --> 0:26:28.719
<v Speaker 1>for the Party of Socialism in fantaside and open borders

0:26:28.720 --> 0:26:32.639
<v Speaker 1>in charge. Let's just say that Trump did some of

0:26:32.680 --> 0:26:35.800
<v Speaker 1>the shady business practices that Michael Cohen, as I'm sure,

0:26:35.800 --> 0:26:39.960
<v Speaker 1>are going to expand upon at length in this hearing

0:26:39.960 --> 0:26:44.800
<v Speaker 1>tomorrow when he's in open testimony. Would you want the

0:26:45.240 --> 0:26:48.919
<v Speaker 1>Party of Occasio Cortez to run the country? Would you

0:26:48.960 --> 0:26:51.280
<v Speaker 1>want the Democrats to be able to take more of

0:26:51.320 --> 0:26:54.960
<v Speaker 1>your money, be able to pursue more disastrous economic and

0:26:55.000 --> 0:27:00.720
<v Speaker 1>immigration and healthcare policies to ally with the me in

0:27:00.840 --> 0:27:06.320
<v Speaker 1>outright delusions like the Green New Deal, the idea that

0:27:06.359 --> 0:27:10.719
<v Speaker 1>then that the world is going to be destroyed unless

0:27:10.760 --> 0:27:13.760
<v Speaker 1>we spend trillions and trillions of dollars on what is

0:27:13.760 --> 0:27:19.920
<v Speaker 1>nothing more than a religion for the left, that transgender

0:27:19.920 --> 0:27:23.840
<v Speaker 1>individuals who compete who are biological males against women have

0:27:23.880 --> 0:27:31.520
<v Speaker 1>no real advantage. I mean, they will just defy common sense, history, logic,

0:27:31.640 --> 0:27:35.800
<v Speaker 1>and rationality in so many ways. But oh oh, but

0:27:36.040 --> 0:27:39.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, we're sending a message because Trump was a

0:27:39.880 --> 0:27:41.960
<v Speaker 1>little bit too rough around the edges and some of

0:27:42.000 --> 0:27:48.640
<v Speaker 1>his business dealings, because Trump was perhaps in a look,

0:27:48.720 --> 0:27:51.720
<v Speaker 1>let's not imperfect husband. Sounds like I'm covering from the guy.

0:27:51.880 --> 0:27:53.680
<v Speaker 1>You know, the guy's been married three times, he's had

0:27:55.000 --> 0:27:58.240
<v Speaker 1>he's had some issues there. We already know this, we

0:27:58.280 --> 0:28:02.720
<v Speaker 1>elected him anyway. I'm not sitting around trying to pass

0:28:02.840 --> 0:28:06.320
<v Speaker 1>moral judgment on all politicians. I'm trying to push for

0:28:06.359 --> 0:28:08.639
<v Speaker 1>the best policies for the country. I think a lot

0:28:08.640 --> 0:28:10.520
<v Speaker 1>of people feel the same way about Trump. They see

0:28:10.520 --> 0:28:12.600
<v Speaker 1>what's happening in America right now, and they say, seems

0:28:12.600 --> 0:28:16.200
<v Speaker 1>like things are pretty good, certainly in the right direction.

0:28:16.480 --> 0:28:19.399
<v Speaker 1>Why we want to change this based on what Michael

0:28:19.440 --> 0:28:23.159
<v Speaker 1>Cohen says? The only thing that I can't give you

0:28:23.200 --> 0:28:26.840
<v Speaker 1>an answer to, although Matt Schlap told me today on

0:28:27.440 --> 0:28:32.879
<v Speaker 1>Rising that I forget the word he used, But you know, sketchy,

0:28:33.200 --> 0:28:36.800
<v Speaker 1>bad people. Trump sometimes he does not pick the best people.

0:28:37.040 --> 0:28:39.160
<v Speaker 1>He has picked some very bad, sketchy people and that's

0:28:39.160 --> 0:28:41.560
<v Speaker 1>just a fact. And unfortunately some of that's come back

0:28:41.600 --> 0:28:43.640
<v Speaker 1>to bite him. And that's gonna happen tomorrow with Michael Cohen.

0:28:43.680 --> 0:28:46.520
<v Speaker 1>But he'll move on. Trump will be fine, and the

0:28:46.600 --> 0:28:49.120
<v Speaker 1>media is just gonna get themselves all work up over nothing.

0:28:52.560 --> 0:28:55.840
<v Speaker 1>Why have you stopped short of falling Maduro with Venezuela

0:28:55.920 --> 0:29:03.680
<v Speaker 1>a dictator? Well, I think it's fair to say that

0:29:03.720 --> 0:29:09.600
<v Speaker 1>the last election was undemocratic, but there are still democratic

0:29:10.000 --> 0:29:13.920
<v Speaker 1>operations taking place in that country. The point is what

0:29:14.080 --> 0:29:21.040
<v Speaker 1>I am calling for right now is internationally supervised, free elections.

0:29:21.680 --> 0:29:25.240
<v Speaker 1>And I do find it interesting that Trump is very

0:29:25.280 --> 0:29:29.080
<v Speaker 1>concerned about what goes on in Venezuela. But what about

0:29:29.080 --> 0:29:32.479
<v Speaker 1>the last election that took place in Saudi Arabia. Oh,

0:29:32.520 --> 0:29:36.000
<v Speaker 1>there wasn't any election in Saudi Arabia. Oh, women are

0:29:36.000 --> 0:29:39.960
<v Speaker 1>treated as third class citizens. So I find it interesting

0:29:40.000 --> 0:29:42.840
<v Speaker 1>that Trump is kind of selective as to where he

0:29:43.240 --> 0:29:46.440
<v Speaker 1>is concerned about democracy. My record is to be concerned

0:29:46.440 --> 0:29:50.000
<v Speaker 1>about democracy all over the world. So we've got to

0:29:50.000 --> 0:29:51.840
<v Speaker 1>do everything we can. But at the end of the

0:29:51.920 --> 0:29:54.800
<v Speaker 1>day is going to be the people of Venezuela who

0:29:54.840 --> 0:29:58.720
<v Speaker 1>determine the future of the country. I find it interesting

0:29:58.760 --> 0:30:04.120
<v Speaker 1>that Bernie likes Kami. You see this, you hear this,

0:30:04.360 --> 0:30:07.840
<v Speaker 1>We've played the audio for you. Bernie Sanders has a

0:30:07.880 --> 0:30:13.840
<v Speaker 1>soft spot for commies, for hardcore socialists. He really does.

0:30:13.960 --> 0:30:19.920
<v Speaker 1>He did with the Soviet Union while people were imprisoned, well,

0:30:20.000 --> 0:30:23.000
<v Speaker 1>while the Gulag system was, you know, in operation, while

0:30:23.040 --> 0:30:25.400
<v Speaker 1>you have people getting sent to Siberia and all this stuff.

0:30:25.720 --> 0:30:29.160
<v Speaker 1>Bernie Sanders talking about breadth Line, thought that bit the

0:30:29.200 --> 0:30:31.680
<v Speaker 1>BRIT's pretty chewy. It's not you know, it's not amazing,

0:30:31.680 --> 0:30:35.760
<v Speaker 1>but you put some salt on it taste okay. But

0:30:35.880 --> 0:30:41.600
<v Speaker 1>he won't call Maduro of Venezuela a dictator. Why he'll

0:30:41.640 --> 0:30:44.400
<v Speaker 1>call Trump. I'm sure if you ask him too, I

0:30:44.600 --> 0:30:47.480
<v Speaker 1>want to be dictator. I mean, he'll say all kinds

0:30:47.480 --> 0:30:49.880
<v Speaker 1>of horrible things about the current President of the United States.

0:30:49.920 --> 0:30:53.680
<v Speaker 1>But he won't say anything terrible about Maduro. He holds

0:30:53.720 --> 0:30:57.160
<v Speaker 1>back on that. I think we should ask the question, why,

0:30:57.960 --> 0:31:02.120
<v Speaker 1>what is it about Maduro that Bernie Sanders has a

0:31:02.160 --> 0:31:06.720
<v Speaker 1>certain fondness for? What is it about Maduro that holds

0:31:06.760 --> 0:31:12.480
<v Speaker 1>Bernie Sanders back? And I think we all know Bernie

0:31:12.480 --> 0:31:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Sanders has an affinity for not just democratic socialism, but

0:31:20.240 --> 0:31:25.160
<v Speaker 1>all out radical socialism and maybe even up to and

0:31:25.280 --> 0:31:29.600
<v Speaker 1>including communism. There's a record here, folks, there's a record.

0:31:29.800 --> 0:31:32.400
<v Speaker 1>They can say whatever they want now about how Bernie's

0:31:32.440 --> 0:31:35.040
<v Speaker 1>just this cuddly guy from Vermont and he loves Ben

0:31:35.040 --> 0:31:38.160
<v Speaker 1>and Jerry's ice cream, and he's all kooky and funny

0:31:38.200 --> 0:31:41.200
<v Speaker 1>and the crazy professor. Look at all this stuff. At

0:31:41.200 --> 0:31:45.840
<v Speaker 1>the end of the day, Bernie Sanders gets far more upset,

0:31:46.760 --> 0:31:49.640
<v Speaker 1>far more aggravated with President Trump than he ever has

0:31:49.760 --> 0:31:54.000
<v Speaker 1>or ever would, it seems, with Maduro. And let me

0:31:54.040 --> 0:31:58.000
<v Speaker 1>just say that this, oh, look at look at Saudi Arabia. Yeah,

0:31:58.000 --> 0:32:00.960
<v Speaker 1>Saudi Arabia is a despotism. That's true, no question about it.

0:32:01.000 --> 0:32:04.440
<v Speaker 1>We all know this. But if we're really going to

0:32:04.520 --> 0:32:08.080
<v Speaker 1>have this conversation, I mean, Saudi Arabia doesn't have people

0:32:08.360 --> 0:32:11.520
<v Speaker 1>who are starving to death. Saudi Arabia doesn't have an

0:32:11.800 --> 0:32:14.440
<v Speaker 1>inflation rate of a million percent. I mean, Venezuela has

0:32:14.480 --> 0:32:18.560
<v Speaker 1>been destroyed as a country, and it has been destroyed

0:32:18.600 --> 0:32:23.280
<v Speaker 1>by people who in their rhetoric, in their political approach,

0:32:23.960 --> 0:32:27.000
<v Speaker 1>mirror a lot of what the Democratic Party in this

0:32:27.080 --> 0:32:32.280
<v Speaker 1>country is trying to do and achieve. That's just what

0:32:32.440 --> 0:32:35.520
<v Speaker 1>is happening. So, you know, Bernie can find all these

0:32:35.520 --> 0:32:38.000
<v Speaker 1>different ways to try and deflect and talk about something

0:32:38.040 --> 0:32:41.080
<v Speaker 1>else and make it sound like, you know, Trump is

0:32:41.080 --> 0:32:47.160
<v Speaker 1>the bad guy here. But we know, we know that

0:32:47.200 --> 0:32:51.880
<v Speaker 1>Bernie Sanders thinks that Mduro's problem is just that, you know,

0:32:52.000 --> 0:32:57.040
<v Speaker 1>bad timing and he didn't do it right. Always the

0:32:57.080 --> 0:33:00.360
<v Speaker 1>same excuse with communism, he didn't do it right. I

0:33:00.400 --> 0:33:02.280
<v Speaker 1>think I've told you here on the show before that

0:33:02.320 --> 0:33:05.640
<v Speaker 1>one of the big problems that they had in Venezuela

0:33:06.000 --> 0:33:09.480
<v Speaker 1>was the seizure of companies, the seizure of private assets

0:33:09.520 --> 0:33:16.240
<v Speaker 1>by the government and price controls. The government, under the

0:33:16.280 --> 0:33:18.720
<v Speaker 1>auspices of trying to do things that would help the poor,

0:33:18.880 --> 0:33:21.600
<v Speaker 1>would help their version of the of the working class

0:33:21.600 --> 0:33:26.600
<v Speaker 1>in Venezuela, would go after what they considered to be

0:33:26.640 --> 0:33:29.480
<v Speaker 1>wealthy corporations what were called wealthy corporations at the time,

0:33:30.320 --> 0:33:33.840
<v Speaker 1>and it sounded okay, right, Oh, this this company that

0:33:34.120 --> 0:33:38.800
<v Speaker 1>makes you know that that makes refrigerators, or this company

0:33:38.840 --> 0:33:42.640
<v Speaker 1>that produces some kind of a food stuff. You know,

0:33:42.880 --> 0:33:45.320
<v Speaker 1>they're they're making too much money. Let's just give more

0:33:45.360 --> 0:33:48.360
<v Speaker 1>to the people. I don't think that Bernie Sanders has

0:33:48.400 --> 0:33:49.920
<v Speaker 1>any problem with that at all. In fact, I think

0:33:49.960 --> 0:33:53.920
<v Speaker 1>we know that he still thinks that that's a very important,

0:33:53.920 --> 0:33:57.200
<v Speaker 1>not just from the perspective of what works, but important

0:33:57.360 --> 0:34:02.360
<v Speaker 1>moral act. You know, he's gonna try to take from

0:34:02.440 --> 0:34:06.440
<v Speaker 1>companies in this country to pay for his ideas. Play

0:34:06.440 --> 0:34:09.640
<v Speaker 1>clip eight. Am I going to demand that the wealthy

0:34:09.640 --> 0:34:13.520
<v Speaker 1>and large corporations start paying their fair share of taxes?

0:34:13.719 --> 0:34:19.839
<v Speaker 1>Damn right? I will, all right, and let me give you.

0:34:20.760 --> 0:34:22.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, people say, where are you gonna get the money?

0:34:22.800 --> 0:34:26.120
<v Speaker 1>Where you're gonna get the money? Amazon, owned by the

0:34:26.160 --> 0:34:31.120
<v Speaker 1>wealthiest guy in the world, made five billion dollars last

0:34:31.160 --> 0:34:33.799
<v Speaker 1>gear and profits. Anyone here know how much they paid

0:34:33.840 --> 0:34:37.120
<v Speaker 1>in taxes. That's right, That's why we're gonna begin getting

0:34:37.120 --> 0:34:44.320
<v Speaker 1>the money. Noticetary says begin even though this class warfare

0:34:44.360 --> 0:34:46.640
<v Speaker 1>stuff and this is what they did in Venezuela. Chavez

0:34:46.760 --> 0:34:50.480
<v Speaker 1>would go on TV and say, these rich landowners, these

0:34:50.560 --> 0:34:54.400
<v Speaker 1>rich farmers, these rich manufacturers, we need to take their stuff.

0:34:55.400 --> 0:34:57.319
<v Speaker 1>At first it was we need them to charge less

0:34:57.320 --> 0:34:58.880
<v Speaker 1>for their stuff, and they couldn't make a profit. And

0:34:58.880 --> 0:35:01.160
<v Speaker 1>then when they couldn't create more stuff, Java is in

0:35:01.200 --> 0:35:03.239
<v Speaker 1>the Maduro said well, we'll just take the factory. Now,

0:35:03.239 --> 0:35:08.200
<v Speaker 1>we'll run it. It's ours. How far off is that

0:35:08.239 --> 0:35:11.120
<v Speaker 1>from what Bernie Sanders is saying here, But notice how

0:35:11.160 --> 0:35:16.239
<v Speaker 1>he says, that's where we'll start. As I have told you,

0:35:16.760 --> 0:35:21.759
<v Speaker 1>the money here is really with the middle class. It's

0:35:21.800 --> 0:35:26.239
<v Speaker 1>always with the people. The money in this country is

0:35:26.239 --> 0:35:31.000
<v Speaker 1>with everyday normal folks that are working jobs, that are

0:35:31.000 --> 0:35:33.920
<v Speaker 1>paying their mortgages, that are trying to feed their families.

0:35:34.280 --> 0:35:37.680
<v Speaker 1>That's because there's so many more of them, and they're

0:35:37.680 --> 0:35:39.480
<v Speaker 1>going to try to come up with all these different

0:35:39.480 --> 0:35:42.880
<v Speaker 1>ways to hide how they're taking money from those people.

0:35:43.000 --> 0:35:44.600
<v Speaker 1>But they are, at the end of the day, they

0:35:44.640 --> 0:35:47.439
<v Speaker 1>are going to take money from those people, whether through

0:35:47.480 --> 0:35:52.080
<v Speaker 1>taxation or through rationing of government programs that they've been promised,

0:35:52.239 --> 0:35:54.880
<v Speaker 1>or you name it. There are all these different ways

0:35:55.320 --> 0:35:59.680
<v Speaker 1>that government can't make this stuff happen. There's no magic,

0:36:00.080 --> 0:36:04.400
<v Speaker 1>whether it's Maduro or Sanders, it's just not going to work.

0:36:04.960 --> 0:36:08.480
<v Speaker 1>But people want to believe it, and so they will.

0:36:09.880 --> 0:36:13.520
<v Speaker 1>Socialism is a very real threat now in this country,

0:36:14.560 --> 0:36:17.040
<v Speaker 1>just like it is a threat and it has now

0:36:17.120 --> 0:36:22.160
<v Speaker 1>destroyed Venezuela. We'll talk more about Venezuela and Maduro coming

0:36:22.239 --> 0:36:26.080
<v Speaker 1>up in the show later on. But I've got it.

0:36:26.120 --> 0:36:27.680
<v Speaker 1>I always say this to you, and maybe I'll just

0:36:27.719 --> 0:36:29.879
<v Speaker 1>I'll stop, you know what. Yeah, from now on, I'm

0:36:29.920 --> 0:36:32.520
<v Speaker 1>going to talk to you about about issues of life

0:36:32.520 --> 0:36:34.640
<v Speaker 1>and the pro life cause on the show and not

0:36:34.719 --> 0:36:37.360
<v Speaker 1>say I know that people sometimes it's a little too

0:36:38.000 --> 0:36:42.920
<v Speaker 1>intense for them. But the Democrats just took another swipe

0:36:43.000 --> 0:36:46.279
<v Speaker 1>at life yesterday, and I want to tell you what

0:36:46.320 --> 0:36:51.280
<v Speaker 1>they've done, and I am honestly angry, deeply angry about

0:36:51.280 --> 0:36:56.279
<v Speaker 1>what they've done. We'll be right back. I've been talking

0:36:56.280 --> 0:36:58.640
<v Speaker 1>about snippy dot com a lot here on the show.

0:36:58.680 --> 0:37:01.600
<v Speaker 1>It's a new social media a site that does not

0:37:01.680 --> 0:37:04.879
<v Speaker 1>discriminate against conservative points of view. Well, if you look

0:37:04.920 --> 0:37:06.520
<v Speaker 1>at snippy dot com in the past and you left,

0:37:06.520 --> 0:37:09.000
<v Speaker 1>you need to check it out one more time. Thousands

0:37:09.000 --> 0:37:12.720
<v Speaker 1>and thousands of listeners to this show have joinsnippy dot com.

0:37:12.920 --> 0:37:15.359
<v Speaker 1>They know it's totally free to use, totally free to join,

0:37:15.600 --> 0:37:18.400
<v Speaker 1>and they're expressing their opinions and getting all kinds of

0:37:18.440 --> 0:37:23.279
<v Speaker 1>fiery conversations. Going Snippy is an unbiased social media platform. Look,

0:37:23.320 --> 0:37:26.040
<v Speaker 1>I've had friends who are banned from the big social

0:37:26.080 --> 0:37:28.800
<v Speaker 1>media platforms you've already heard about and you've probably been using.

0:37:29.320 --> 0:37:33.040
<v Speaker 1>Don't let yourself get caught in that trap post and

0:37:33.200 --> 0:37:36.319
<v Speaker 1>engage in a place where freedom of expression is the

0:37:36.360 --> 0:37:38.600
<v Speaker 1>first principal. All right, Snippy's a place where you're free

0:37:38.640 --> 0:37:41.319

<v Speaker 1>shadow banning and no suppression of conservative thought ever. Again.

0:37:50.840 --> 0:37:55.200
<v Speaker 1>Go to snippy dot com. That's snippy dot com. Start

0:37:55.239 --> 0:38:02.920
<v Speaker 1>your account today. Does Facebook discriminate against conservatives? We know

0:38:03.040 --> 0:38:06.560
<v Speaker 1>the answer to this, but they always turn around and say, oh,

0:38:06.600 --> 0:38:10.400
<v Speaker 1>but it's just a mistake. Oh, it's not really happening

0:38:10.440 --> 0:38:13.239
<v Speaker 1>because of ideology. It's because of the algorithms and all

0:38:13.239 --> 0:38:16.760
<v Speaker 1>the fancy engineering back end blah blah blah, all that stuff.

0:38:17.480 --> 0:38:19.840
<v Speaker 1>Can't be because of a bias against the ride, a

0:38:19.840 --> 0:38:22.640
<v Speaker 1>bias against conservatives as well. I want to bring on

0:38:22.680 --> 0:38:26.080
<v Speaker 1>somebody who can speak from some personal experience to this issue.

0:38:26.719 --> 0:38:31.160
<v Speaker 1>Our buddy Raheim Kasam of raheim kasam dot com, former

0:38:31.160 --> 0:38:34.440
<v Speaker 1>advisor to Nigel Faraj, author of No go Zones. You

0:38:34.480 --> 0:38:38.319
<v Speaker 1>see him all over the place. Rahem also has a

0:38:38.440 --> 0:38:42.640
<v Speaker 1>robust following on Facebook, and he joins us now to

0:38:42.320 --> 0:38:44.520
<v Speaker 1>talk to talk to us about what happened here, Raheem, great,

0:38:44.719 --> 0:38:47.399
<v Speaker 1>great to have you, my friend. What walk us throw here?

0:38:47.400 --> 0:38:51.520
<v Speaker 1>How did you? How did Facebook come after? Rahim? Hey?

0:38:51.680 --> 0:38:54.640
<v Speaker 1>Buck Well, yeah, thanks for having me and letting me

0:38:54.880 --> 0:38:57.400
<v Speaker 1>talk about this. You know, this is something that I

0:38:57.480 --> 0:39:00.680
<v Speaker 1>think a lot of us on the plitic right of

0:39:00.800 --> 0:39:06.200
<v Speaker 1>experienced in recent months and years in fact now, is

0:39:06.239 --> 0:39:14.480
<v Speaker 1>that our opinions are often deleted or our cows throstled

0:39:14.800 --> 0:39:19.440
<v Speaker 1>shadow band, you know, all sorts of mechanisms and algorithms

0:39:19.440 --> 0:39:23.200
<v Speaker 1>and manual interventions that the big social media giants use

0:39:23.560 --> 0:39:27.200
<v Speaker 1>to make sure that conservative thought is suppressed and liberal

0:39:27.239 --> 0:39:32.719
<v Speaker 1>thought and cultural Marxist thought is sort of projected out

0:39:32.760 --> 0:39:35.920
<v Speaker 1>there more. And I woke up this morning to find

0:39:35.960 --> 0:39:40.520
<v Speaker 1>that I had been locked out of my Facebook page,

0:39:40.680 --> 0:39:45.880
<v Speaker 1>my Facebook account, which manages which administers one hundred and

0:39:45.880 --> 0:39:49.440
<v Speaker 1>sixty thousand fans of mine in my own page, And

0:39:49.480 --> 0:39:52.480
<v Speaker 1>of course for somebody like me who makes their living

0:39:53.200 --> 0:39:57.000
<v Speaker 1>by selling books and relying on the donations of ordinary people,

0:39:57.680 --> 0:40:02.000
<v Speaker 1>that's an incredibly scary thing to happen out of nowhere,

0:40:02.160 --> 0:40:06.800
<v Speaker 1>especially when as Facebook did, when they when they don't

0:40:06.880 --> 0:40:09.680
<v Speaker 1>tell you what you know, what you're supposed to have

0:40:09.680 --> 0:40:11.279
<v Speaker 1>done wrong, That's that's what they did to me, and

0:40:11.320 --> 0:40:13.560
<v Speaker 1>that's what they did to a handful of the clouds

0:40:13.640 --> 0:40:18.160
<v Speaker 1>this morning, just full on deletion and no explanation as

0:40:18.200 --> 0:40:21.800
<v Speaker 1>to why. So. So that was the stories that stood

0:40:21.800 --> 0:40:26.840
<v Speaker 1>this morning, luckily for me. But I have friends in

0:40:27.040 --> 0:40:30.759
<v Speaker 1>medium to high places such as yourself, um, and lots

0:40:30.760 --> 0:40:34.560
<v Speaker 1>of people sort of wrote to my rescue by tweeting

0:40:34.600 --> 0:40:39.880
<v Speaker 1>about it, sharing the story that I had been banned.

0:40:40.400 --> 0:40:44.239
<v Speaker 1>Lots of news outlets wrote about it this morning, and

0:40:44.320 --> 0:40:47.400
<v Speaker 1>even the president's son, Donald Trump Junior tweeted multiple times

0:40:47.400 --> 0:40:49.880
<v Speaker 1>about it. And it's a television it's about it today.

0:40:50.360 --> 0:40:52.640
<v Speaker 1>So it's all well and good for me being in

0:40:53.000 --> 0:40:57.040
<v Speaker 1>somewhat of an elite media bubble as we are, but

0:40:57.160 --> 0:41:00.760
<v Speaker 1>for ordinary people. For ordinary conservatives out they're all across

0:41:00.800 --> 0:41:03.600
<v Speaker 1>the Western world who don't have the ability to call

0:41:03.640 --> 0:41:07.120
<v Speaker 1>in favors with people who aren't the subject of news articles.

0:41:07.120 --> 0:41:09.759
<v Speaker 1>When they get their account shut down, it can be

0:41:09.760 --> 0:41:14.040
<v Speaker 1>an incredibly desperate thing if that happens to them, because

0:41:14.080 --> 0:41:16.839
<v Speaker 1>people use these social media platforms not just to air

0:41:16.880 --> 0:41:19.399
<v Speaker 1>their political opinions, but to keep in touch for their

0:41:19.440 --> 0:41:22.680
<v Speaker 1>friends and their family members and to share photos over

0:41:22.719 --> 0:41:25.560
<v Speaker 1>the course of decades, and all of that can go

0:41:25.760 --> 0:41:28.200
<v Speaker 1>in just a heartbeat. And so that's that's why I

0:41:28.239 --> 0:41:30.319
<v Speaker 1>think this is so important. It's all well and good

0:41:30.480 --> 0:41:32.319
<v Speaker 1>for people like me, Bud, but for all the new

0:41:32.360 --> 0:41:35.080
<v Speaker 1>people out there, especially people of a certain age, it

0:41:35.200 --> 0:41:39.080
<v Speaker 1>could really lead to some catastrophic things. How bad do

0:41:39.120 --> 0:41:41.719
<v Speaker 1>you think the problem is with Facebook specifically? I mean,

0:41:41.800 --> 0:41:45.600
<v Speaker 1>I I've wondered, is there one platform that is the

0:41:45.719 --> 0:41:50.360
<v Speaker 1>most anti conservative? What do you think? Well, it's interesting

0:41:50.400 --> 0:41:53.160
<v Speaker 1>they all seem to do it in slightly different ways,

0:41:53.960 --> 0:41:55.760
<v Speaker 1>And I think they all do it in slightly different

0:41:55.760 --> 0:41:59.040
<v Speaker 1>ways because they then share information with each other on

0:41:59.120 --> 0:42:02.080
<v Speaker 1>what the best way to make their own internal liberal

0:42:02.080 --> 0:42:07.440
<v Speaker 1>biases work. Are you know? Google ranks pro abortion posts

0:42:08.120 --> 0:42:11.560
<v Speaker 1>higher in its search results, and it was found to

0:42:11.640 --> 0:42:15.279
<v Speaker 1>be lying about that in congressional testimony, not just a

0:42:15.320 --> 0:42:20.880
<v Speaker 1>couple of months ago. Facebook does mass deletions a lot quicker.

0:42:21.120 --> 0:42:24.360
<v Speaker 1>Twitter shadow bands, which it means which by which I

0:42:24.400 --> 0:42:27.480
<v Speaker 1>mean that they will allow you to post certain things,

0:42:27.640 --> 0:42:31.000
<v Speaker 1>but those things won't necessarily appear in other people's news speeds.

0:42:31.800 --> 0:42:34.080
<v Speaker 1>They just sort of go out into the ether and disappear,

0:42:34.719 --> 0:42:37.000
<v Speaker 1>even to the point where, yeah, it's happened to the

0:42:37.000 --> 0:42:40.400
<v Speaker 1>President of the United States in the last year. So

0:42:40.440 --> 0:42:41.719
<v Speaker 1>they all do it in slightly different way, So I

0:42:41.760 --> 0:42:44.640
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't say that one is necessarily worse than the other.

0:42:44.760 --> 0:42:47.759
<v Speaker 1>I think they're They're all as nefarious as one another

0:42:47.800 --> 0:42:50.000
<v Speaker 1>in this regard. And the fact of the matter is

0:42:50.640 --> 0:42:55.959
<v Speaker 1>that no political figure, sadly on the political right, who

0:42:56.080 --> 0:42:59.200
<v Speaker 1>is in a position to legislate on the matter or

0:42:59.320 --> 0:43:03.120
<v Speaker 1>undo the existing legislation that protects these companies, like the

0:43:03.160 --> 0:43:06.400
<v Speaker 1>provisions in the Communications Decency Act in the United States.

0:43:06.640 --> 0:43:09.279
<v Speaker 1>They're not acting on it. And while I'm delighted that

0:43:09.560 --> 0:43:11.640
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump Junior is so active about this, he's not

0:43:11.680 --> 0:43:14.600
<v Speaker 1>in a legislative position. And I just wonder what it's

0:43:14.640 --> 0:43:18.279
<v Speaker 1>going to take for conservative politicians to realize that they

0:43:18.320 --> 0:43:21.839
<v Speaker 1>cannot leave it too late for their own constituency, their

0:43:21.840 --> 0:43:26.200
<v Speaker 1>own voters, their own supporters, before they're just completely eradicated

0:43:26.239 --> 0:43:29.759
<v Speaker 1>of social media entirely. What do you think we should do?

0:43:29.960 --> 0:43:35.719
<v Speaker 1>What should be done? Well? So, there are several provisions

0:43:35.719 --> 0:43:38.680
<v Speaker 1>that exist at the moment that protect these firms that

0:43:38.800 --> 0:43:43.160
<v Speaker 1>protect them specially from being thought of as as publications,

0:43:43.400 --> 0:43:47.560
<v Speaker 1>from being thought of as publishers with editors. But they

0:43:47.560 --> 0:43:51.319
<v Speaker 1>are publishers with editors because they decide what content goes up,

0:43:51.640 --> 0:43:54.719
<v Speaker 1>They decide what trends, they decide what goes into the

0:43:54.760 --> 0:43:58.360
<v Speaker 1>algorithms that automate those decisions. So at the end of

0:43:58.400 --> 0:44:00.680
<v Speaker 1>the day, they are just like el is just like

0:44:00.719 --> 0:44:03.719
<v Speaker 1>the New York Times in that regard, and Twitter is

0:44:03.760 --> 0:44:06.319
<v Speaker 1>just like the Daily Caller in that regard. You know,

0:44:06.400 --> 0:44:11.480
<v Speaker 1>they still have people calling the shots on editorial decisions. Now,

0:44:11.640 --> 0:44:16.520
<v Speaker 1>the Communications Decency Act in the US actually protects social

0:44:16.560 --> 0:44:20.960
<v Speaker 1>media firms and says they cannot be thought of as publishers.

0:44:21.280 --> 0:44:23.520
<v Speaker 1>If they're not thought of as publishers, then they get

0:44:23.560 --> 0:44:26.480
<v Speaker 1>away with this because they can't be sued for doing

0:44:26.480 --> 0:44:28.440
<v Speaker 1>this stuff. They can't be sued for what goes on

0:44:28.480 --> 0:44:31.800
<v Speaker 1>the site and they can't be sued for actually banning

0:44:31.800 --> 0:44:34.000
<v Speaker 1>people like me. I would have no case in court

0:44:34.040 --> 0:44:37.600
<v Speaker 1>to make today about that if you remove those provisions

0:44:37.640 --> 0:44:40.200
<v Speaker 1>in the communications business yet, Remember I'm not asking for

0:44:40.360 --> 0:44:44.319
<v Speaker 1>more government interference and actually asking to have governmental interference

0:44:44.360 --> 0:44:47.520
<v Speaker 1>taken away from the industry as it stands right now.

0:44:47.600 --> 0:44:50.799
<v Speaker 1>And if you remove that, you bring ordinary people one

0:44:50.840 --> 0:44:54.839
<v Speaker 1>step closer to holding social media giants to account. Right him,

0:44:54.840 --> 0:44:57.120
<v Speaker 1>becasalm everybody, right him. I've been telling folks that I'll

0:44:57.160 --> 0:44:59.800
<v Speaker 1>be at Seapack this Friday. You're gonna be a seapack?

0:45:00.000 --> 0:45:02.879
<v Speaker 1>Are you speaking? What are you speaking on? And how

0:45:02.920 --> 0:45:07.239
<v Speaker 1>do people find raheem the dream I'll be doing a

0:45:07.280 --> 0:45:10.040
<v Speaker 1>book signing at sea Packet I think five pm on

0:45:10.080 --> 0:45:13.920
<v Speaker 1>the Friday, then speaking on the Saturday at two thirty

0:45:13.960 --> 0:45:17.040
<v Speaker 1>pm on the main stage talking about Brexit, and then

0:45:17.120 --> 0:45:22.000
<v Speaker 1>later on that evening Mike Sernovitch is holding an event

0:45:22.480 --> 0:45:25.080
<v Speaker 1>which I've just agreed to speak out about social media

0:45:25.239 --> 0:45:27.680
<v Speaker 1>biased and he asked me to do that just today.

0:45:27.719 --> 0:45:29.600
<v Speaker 1>So three times that you can come from CB a

0:45:29.840 --> 0:45:32.719
<v Speaker 1>pack and if you can't find me in those places,

0:45:33.040 --> 0:45:35.080
<v Speaker 1>you'll probably safely assume I'm going to be at one

0:45:35.080 --> 0:45:37.960
<v Speaker 1>of the bars. There you go, everybody. If you see Raheem,

0:45:38.480 --> 0:45:41.720
<v Speaker 1>just remember he likes single malt and he likes Scotch

0:45:41.800 --> 0:45:45.120
<v Speaker 1>old enough to order its own scotch. There you go,

0:45:46.440 --> 0:45:48.960
<v Speaker 1>all right, everybody, Rahim Kasam Raighthim. I'll see you at

0:45:48.960 --> 0:45:54.400
<v Speaker 1>Sea Pack Team. We'll be right back. It's hard to

0:45:54.400 --> 0:45:57.279
<v Speaker 1>find the right candidate for that job opening. You've got

0:45:57.280 --> 0:45:58.920
<v Speaker 1>a ton of resumes that will come in from all

0:45:58.960 --> 0:46:01.440
<v Speaker 1>these different sites, and maybe a lot of the resumes

0:46:01.440 --> 0:46:03.680
<v Speaker 1>aren't very good, or maybe you don't get many resumes

0:46:03.719 --> 0:46:05.640
<v Speaker 1>at all because you don't know where to post. Well,

0:46:06.040 --> 0:46:08.440
<v Speaker 1>that's not smart. I got an idea. I want to

0:46:56.680 --> 0:47:02.799
<v Speaker 1>longer dealing with a normal, traditional Democratic party. We're looking

0:47:02.840 --> 0:47:04.880
<v Speaker 1>at a party that has been dragged so far to

0:47:04.920 --> 0:47:09.560
<v Speaker 1>the left it would have been unrecognizable to folks just

0:47:09.600 --> 0:47:14.400
<v Speaker 1>a few years ago. In nineteen ninety six, Senor Daniel

0:47:14.400 --> 0:47:21.000
<v Speaker 1>Patrick Monahan condemned partial birth abortion by comparing it to infanticide.

0:47:22.880 --> 0:47:27.560
<v Speaker 1>That was a distinguished mainstream Democratic senator from New York

0:47:28.560 --> 0:47:34.320
<v Speaker 1>about twenty years ago, and today today, nine Senate Democrats

0:47:34.360 --> 0:47:37.439
<v Speaker 1>could not even vote to protect babies after they're born,

0:47:37.880 --> 0:47:41.960
<v Speaker 1>and the only explanations they could offer were bizarre euphemisms

0:47:41.960 --> 0:47:46.040
<v Speaker 1>and vague references to issues that have no bearing once

0:47:46.080 --> 0:47:51.520
<v Speaker 1>a child has already been born alive. Mitch McConnell speaking forcefully,

0:47:51.560 --> 0:47:59.640
<v Speaker 1>speaking truthfully about how far left and how completely even

0:47:59.640 --> 0:48:05.640
<v Speaker 1>more and outrageous the Democrat Party has become. You will

0:48:05.680 --> 0:48:10.360
<v Speaker 1>not hear this into you know, we'll not hear this

0:48:10.440 --> 0:48:12.960
<v Speaker 1>on most of the news networks out there. They will

0:48:13.000 --> 0:48:18.279
<v Speaker 1>not be spending time covering this in any detail. And CNN, MSNBC,

0:48:18.480 --> 0:48:22.919
<v Speaker 1>The New York Times, it's treated as as a procedural,

0:48:23.280 --> 0:48:28.239
<v Speaker 1>unimportant vote. It is anything but that. This is a

0:48:28.320 --> 0:48:33.600
<v Speaker 1>day yesterday that should live in infamy for the Democrat

0:48:33.640 --> 0:48:37.560
<v Speaker 1>Party and it should also serve as a clarifying moment

0:48:37.600 --> 0:48:41.160
<v Speaker 1>for the rest of us as to what the other

0:48:41.239 --> 0:48:48.560
<v Speaker 1>side is willing to do, how disgusting and deprave they're

0:48:48.560 --> 0:48:52.000
<v Speaker 1>willing to be, and what it means to be on

0:48:52.040 --> 0:48:54.560
<v Speaker 1>the wrong side of an issue. And dare I say

0:48:54.600 --> 0:48:58.080
<v Speaker 1>the wrong side of history as the Democrats are here,

0:48:59.360 --> 0:49:01.880
<v Speaker 1>the wrong side of morality, the wrong side of God,

0:49:02.880 --> 0:49:07.480
<v Speaker 1>if I may say so. Ben Saas's not one of

0:49:07.480 --> 0:49:10.399
<v Speaker 1>my favorite senators, but that doesn't really matter. People who

0:49:10.440 --> 0:49:13.080
<v Speaker 1>do good things are doing good things. He has right

0:49:13.120 --> 0:49:17.120
<v Speaker 1>on many things. He is right on this issue. Nebraska

0:49:17.200 --> 0:49:24.720
<v Speaker 1>Senator sass A sponsor the Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act,

0:49:26.239 --> 0:49:31.680
<v Speaker 1>And this is a very straightforward bill. You'll notice that

0:49:31.760 --> 0:49:33.839
<v Speaker 1>in many of the writeups of this, and I saw

0:49:33.840 --> 0:49:37.640
<v Speaker 1>this when had happened last night. In many of the

0:49:37.680 --> 0:49:42.160
<v Speaker 1>write ups, they don't link the text of the bill,

0:49:43.600 --> 0:49:48.440
<v Speaker 1>so they can give you whatever interpretation, whatever weasel words

0:49:48.520 --> 0:49:53.040
<v Speaker 1>and distraction terms that they want. They don't want you

0:49:53.120 --> 0:49:54.880
<v Speaker 1>to read the text of the bill. Here's what the

0:49:54.880 --> 0:50:01.920
<v Speaker 1>bill says, give or take, a baby that survives an

0:50:01.920 --> 0:50:07.440
<v Speaker 1>abortion procedure must be given outside of the mother the

0:50:07.680 --> 0:50:11.600
<v Speaker 1>same care that any other baby would under the circumstances,

0:50:12.080 --> 0:50:17.160
<v Speaker 1>or else the doctor will be held criminally liable. Now

0:50:18.280 --> 0:50:25.680
<v Speaker 1>that could not be a more straightforward, more clear moral proposition. Essentially,

0:50:25.719 --> 0:50:30.160
<v Speaker 1>a baby is a baby. Babies deserve to be protected.

0:50:30.600 --> 0:50:35.319
<v Speaker 1>Babies are precious. Babies are life, they are us, they

0:50:35.360 --> 0:50:43.040
<v Speaker 1>are future. There are children, and the law must protect life. Well,

0:50:43.880 --> 0:50:50.640
<v Speaker 1>forty four Democrats in the Senate blocked this bill. They

0:50:50.760 --> 0:50:53.440
<v Speaker 1>blocked this bill because we now have this self imposed

0:50:53.480 --> 0:50:56.440
<v Speaker 1>rule in the Senate that I completely disagree with. It

0:50:56.520 --> 0:51:00.600
<v Speaker 1>is non constitutional. It is self imposed that to get

0:51:00.640 --> 0:51:04.880
<v Speaker 1>anything important done, you need sixty votes. That's not what

0:51:04.920 --> 0:51:07.640
<v Speaker 1>the constitution says, that's not what the Senate's supposed to be.

0:51:07.800 --> 0:51:10.560
<v Speaker 1>Fifty one. It's tough enough to get fifty one on

0:51:10.680 --> 0:51:13.600
<v Speaker 1>the same page. The number is not sixty, but now

0:51:13.640 --> 0:51:18.800
<v Speaker 1>the Senate allows it to be sixty. And on this issue,

0:51:19.960 --> 0:51:25.120
<v Speaker 1>a grave injustice was done because there are forty four

0:51:25.200 --> 0:51:32.200
<v Speaker 1>Democrats who went against this. There were some Republicans. I

0:51:32.200 --> 0:51:35.000
<v Speaker 1>would note, I'm sorry. Democrats are rather who voted with

0:51:35.040 --> 0:51:40.120
<v Speaker 1>the Republicans, a handful of them because they come from

0:51:40.120 --> 0:51:44.040
<v Speaker 1>red states where they want to convince voters that their

0:51:44.120 --> 0:51:47.840
<v Speaker 1>pro life even though really they are part of the

0:51:47.880 --> 0:51:52.080
<v Speaker 1>pro choice movement. Because Democrats are the party of abortion.

0:51:53.239 --> 0:51:56.600
<v Speaker 1>There's no way around this. There's no other way that

0:51:56.680 --> 0:51:59.800
<v Speaker 1>we should try to discuss this. The Democratic Party is

0:52:00.160 --> 0:52:08.560
<v Speaker 1>the party of abortion. Senator Herono, who I say, and

0:52:08.600 --> 0:52:10.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm not trying to be funny, I do think, is

0:52:10.160 --> 0:52:13.960
<v Speaker 1>probably the dumbest person in Congress, certainly close to it.

0:52:15.080 --> 0:52:17.799
<v Speaker 1>But she occasionally says something truthful because she does not

0:52:17.880 --> 0:52:22.080
<v Speaker 1>have the guile, She does not have the intellectual complexity

0:52:22.120 --> 0:52:24.680
<v Speaker 1>to come up with a lie on the spot. And

0:52:24.719 --> 0:52:28.840
<v Speaker 1>she spoke about what the Democrats are favor of and

0:52:28.880 --> 0:52:32.120
<v Speaker 1>what this bill would have done or would have prevented.

0:52:32.160 --> 0:52:37.440
<v Speaker 1>Playclip thirteen. Lets the Senate isn't debating this legislation today

0:52:37.800 --> 0:52:41.200
<v Speaker 1>because there is an epidemic of infasatide in this country.

0:52:41.719 --> 0:52:45.399
<v Speaker 1>There is one. There is not one. There isn't one.

0:52:48.920 --> 0:52:53.920
<v Speaker 1>Maybe that was Freudian, Maybe it wasn't. There is infantside

0:52:53.960 --> 0:52:57.560
<v Speaker 1>going on though in this country as on a massive scale.

0:52:57.600 --> 0:52:59.879
<v Speaker 1>It's just a question of how obvious is the infanticide.

0:53:01.040 --> 0:53:03.120
<v Speaker 1>But then we get into the lies, and this is

0:53:03.120 --> 0:53:05.960
<v Speaker 1>where you have Herrono try to give you one of

0:53:06.000 --> 0:53:08.239
<v Speaker 1>the versions of the Democrat lies. I remember, it's a

0:53:08.320 --> 0:53:12.520
<v Speaker 1>very straightforward bill. A baby that survives an abortion procedure,

0:53:12.640 --> 0:53:15.920
<v Speaker 1>which this folks, I don't want to get into the details.

0:53:15.960 --> 0:53:20.680
<v Speaker 1>It's incredibly graphic, it's horrific, but this does happen. A

0:53:20.800 --> 0:53:24.239
<v Speaker 1>baby that survives an abortion procedure must be cared for

0:53:24.400 --> 0:53:27.239
<v Speaker 1>by the medical professional who's there. The mother's mother had

0:53:27.320 --> 0:53:30.880
<v Speaker 1>no legal liability in this bill. It's just the medical

0:53:30.880 --> 0:53:34.800
<v Speaker 1>providers and to the doctor has to keep the baby alive,

0:53:36.040 --> 0:53:38.160
<v Speaker 1>and that the right to an abortion is not the

0:53:38.280 --> 0:53:40.440
<v Speaker 1>right to a dead baby, even if the baby is

0:53:40.480 --> 0:53:44.319
<v Speaker 1>outside of the mother's womb. That's what this clarifies as

0:53:44.320 --> 0:53:48.600
<v Speaker 1>a matter of law. Senator Harrono try to do the

0:53:48.680 --> 0:53:52.200
<v Speaker 1>usual Democratic deflection play Cliff twelve when you strip away

0:53:52.440 --> 0:53:56.240
<v Speaker 1>the ultra conservative rhetoric, you're left with a very simple

0:53:56.320 --> 0:54:00.720
<v Speaker 1>argument from supporters of this legislation that the or judgment

0:54:01.000 --> 0:54:05.920
<v Speaker 1>of right wing politicians in Washington, DC should supersede a

0:54:06.000 --> 0:54:12.400
<v Speaker 1>medical professionals judgment and a woman's decision. Conservative politicians should

0:54:12.440 --> 0:54:16.600
<v Speaker 1>not be telling doctors how they should care for their patients. Instead,

0:54:16.840 --> 0:54:21.520
<v Speaker 1>women in consultation with their families and doctors are in

0:54:21.560 --> 0:54:26.160
<v Speaker 1>the best position to determine their best course of care.

0:54:27.400 --> 0:54:30.560
<v Speaker 1>Doesn't speak to the bill at all, doesn't deal with

0:54:30.560 --> 0:54:33.920
<v Speaker 1>what's in the bill, just does the usual meandering women

0:54:33.960 --> 0:54:38.160
<v Speaker 1>and doctors in decision making. And I've got news for her.

0:54:38.640 --> 0:54:42.239
<v Speaker 1>It is illegal for doctors to kill their patients. And

0:54:42.320 --> 0:54:45.360
<v Speaker 1>a baby outside the womb, that is breathing, that is

0:54:45.440 --> 0:54:49.000
<v Speaker 1>living on its own, is a human being. It is

0:54:49.040 --> 0:54:52.800
<v Speaker 1>a patient. And that there could be anybody who argues

0:54:52.880 --> 0:54:56.680
<v Speaker 1>otherwise from the Democrat Party just goes to show you

0:54:57.040 --> 0:55:05.200
<v Speaker 1>how grotesque and immoral the Democrats have become. Herono is

0:55:05.320 --> 0:55:09.600
<v Speaker 1>part of this and people, if not in politics, in

0:55:09.760 --> 0:55:12.640
<v Speaker 1>the next life, I can assure you will be held

0:55:12.719 --> 0:55:17.799
<v Speaker 1>accountable for this because this is an offense against the

0:55:17.840 --> 0:55:21.320
<v Speaker 1>most basic human decency. I mean Harono is an imbecile,

0:55:22.200 --> 0:55:25.160
<v Speaker 1>but she's also a dangerous imbecile because she's running cover

0:55:25.840 --> 0:55:34.680
<v Speaker 1>for this barbarity. Senate Democrats couldn't even figure out what

0:55:34.840 --> 0:55:39.560
<v Speaker 1>the proper lie was to tell about this bill. They

0:55:39.640 --> 0:55:42.760
<v Speaker 1>can't be certain should they say that it's already illegal

0:55:42.920 --> 0:55:45.839
<v Speaker 1>or that it shouldn't be illegal? Well, depending on who

0:55:45.840 --> 0:55:50.319
<v Speaker 1>you listen to, depending on whose word you take, it's

0:55:50.400 --> 0:55:56.200
<v Speaker 1>one or the other. But shouldn't it be obvious? Shouldn't

0:55:56.239 --> 0:55:59.759
<v Speaker 1>it be obvious? The deceptive language that the media uses

0:55:59.800 --> 0:56:05.560
<v Speaker 1>by they talk about this is one of these instances

0:56:05.560 --> 0:56:08.040
<v Speaker 1>where you see how deep the bias goes. I mean

0:56:08.040 --> 0:56:10.480
<v Speaker 1>two of the areas where the media is the most

0:56:10.719 --> 0:56:15.759
<v Speaker 1>insanely not just left wing, but but radicalized, I mean

0:56:15.840 --> 0:56:18.480
<v Speaker 1>radicalized even beyond what your average run of the mill

0:56:18.520 --> 0:56:23.120
<v Speaker 1>of Democrat is these days. Guns and abortion. Media is

0:56:23.239 --> 0:56:30.879
<v Speaker 1>absolutely wacko about guns and abortion. They hate guns as

0:56:30.920 --> 0:56:33.600
<v Speaker 1>a class. The media people hate guns, and they are

0:56:35.000 --> 0:56:39.080
<v Speaker 1>in favor of abortion always in any context, in any case.

0:56:39.160 --> 0:56:44.680
<v Speaker 1>They don't care for any reason or no reason. This

0:56:44.840 --> 0:56:46.600
<v Speaker 1>is one of the most horrific things I've ever seen

0:56:46.600 --> 0:56:51.240
<v Speaker 1>in politics. In many ways, it's the most clear, bright

0:56:51.360 --> 0:56:54.120
<v Speaker 1>red line, violation of morality I've ever seen from the

0:56:54.120 --> 0:56:57.919
<v Speaker 1>Democratic Party. They have no leg to stand on here.

0:56:58.120 --> 0:57:01.760
<v Speaker 1>There is no two there's no two sides to this argument.

0:57:03.840 --> 0:57:05.800
<v Speaker 1>We are on the right side of this, my friends,

0:57:06.239 --> 0:57:12.200
<v Speaker 1>Stand tall, keep your shield high, and keep fighting. This

0:57:12.320 --> 0:57:16.440
<v Speaker 1>isn't about the border. This is about the constitution of

0:57:16.480 --> 0:57:20.360
<v Speaker 1>the United States. This is not about politics. It's not

0:57:20.440 --> 0:57:25.200
<v Speaker 1>about partisanship. It's about patriotism. We would be delinquent in

0:57:25.360 --> 0:57:29.919
<v Speaker 1>our duties if we did not resist within out, fight

0:57:29.960 --> 0:57:38.200
<v Speaker 1>back to overturn the president's declaration. Delinquent in her duty.

0:57:38.400 --> 0:57:46.760
<v Speaker 1>She says, what a joke, How ridiculous, How ridiculous these

0:57:46.800 --> 0:57:52.080
<v Speaker 1>Democrats are. Oh, they're going to pass a resolution against

0:57:52.760 --> 0:57:55.960
<v Speaker 1>Trump in the wall. I mean, this is just so stupid.

0:57:57.000 --> 0:58:04.320
<v Speaker 1>This is the definition the definitely of just Congress wasting

0:58:04.360 --> 0:58:07.120
<v Speaker 1>everybody's time. I mean, look, it's politics, and I get that,

0:58:07.240 --> 0:58:10.320
<v Speaker 1>but who cares. Yeah, we already know that the House

0:58:10.320 --> 0:58:15.920
<v Speaker 1>Democrats don't agree with the National Emergency Declaration. We already

0:58:15.960 --> 0:58:22.080
<v Speaker 1>know that the Left is a de facto open borders party. Now,

0:58:23.200 --> 0:58:24.920
<v Speaker 1>when you actually dig into this a little bit, though,

0:58:24.960 --> 0:58:29.120
<v Speaker 1>what you see is they're not going to get through this.

0:58:29.280 --> 0:58:31.280
<v Speaker 1>I mean that the president's going to veto it. They're

0:58:31.320 --> 0:58:35.160
<v Speaker 1>not going to be able to make this resolution happen

0:58:36.200 --> 0:58:39.120
<v Speaker 1>or get signed by the president. So what is this

0:58:39.240 --> 0:58:43.480
<v Speaker 1>really all about. It's about Democrats pretending to care all

0:58:43.520 --> 0:58:48.760
<v Speaker 1>of a sudden about executive power. Nancy Pelosi said earlier today,

0:58:50.200 --> 0:58:52.720
<v Speaker 1>our founders had a great vision. They did not want

0:58:52.760 --> 0:58:58.360
<v Speaker 1>a king. This is wrong. We cannot let this proceed now.

0:58:58.800 --> 0:59:02.080
<v Speaker 1>I would be much more minded to hearing their constitutional

0:59:02.120 --> 0:59:04.720
<v Speaker 1>concerns if we had not just seen for eight years

0:59:04.760 --> 0:59:11.240
<v Speaker 1>of the Obama administration far more sweeping use of executive

0:59:11.240 --> 0:59:14.600
<v Speaker 1>authority than anything we've seen in the Trump administration. In fact,

0:59:14.680 --> 0:59:18.800
<v Speaker 1>we are all supposed to accept, for some reason that

0:59:18.880 --> 0:59:23.240
<v Speaker 1>what Obama had the discretion to do, for some as

0:59:23.280 --> 0:59:27.520
<v Speaker 1>of yet unknown reason, Trump does not have the discretion

0:59:28.000 --> 0:59:32.440
<v Speaker 1>to undo. So Obama. According to some federal courts right

0:59:32.480 --> 0:59:36.800
<v Speaker 1>now full of activists, left wing judges, Obama had more

0:59:36.840 --> 0:59:40.480
<v Speaker 1>power as present than Trump does because they liked Obama,

0:59:40.680 --> 0:59:44.479
<v Speaker 1>because they agree with DOCA. I mean, DACA is as

0:59:44.680 --> 0:59:50.120
<v Speaker 1>flagrantly unconstitutional and as much an abusive executive authority as

0:59:50.160 --> 0:59:53.960
<v Speaker 1>anything that you could think of in the last decade,

0:59:54.920 --> 0:59:58.520
<v Speaker 1>Probably the single most obvious one. At least Congress would

0:59:58.560 --> 1:00:00.720
<v Speaker 1>not do what Obama wanted, so he said, I'm just

1:00:00.800 --> 1:00:04.960
<v Speaker 1>going to do it in contravention of existing federal law

1:00:05.080 --> 1:00:07.919
<v Speaker 1>and the stated will of the Congress. In fact, there

1:00:08.040 --> 1:00:10.880
<v Speaker 1>was a time when the press, because they're a bunch

1:00:11.480 --> 1:00:15.920
<v Speaker 1>of disgusting toadies and they were for they were for

1:00:15.960 --> 1:00:18.560
<v Speaker 1>Obama and they still are for the Democratic Party, they

1:00:18.560 --> 1:00:22.320
<v Speaker 1>were writing things that were undermining the very system of

1:00:22.360 --> 1:00:25.200
<v Speaker 1>checks and balances we have because it was stopping Obama

1:00:25.320 --> 1:00:28.400
<v Speaker 1>from doing exactly what he wanted to do. And they

1:00:28.480 --> 1:00:32.920
<v Speaker 1>just can't accept that. They're not okay with that. You know,

1:00:32.960 --> 1:00:35.760
<v Speaker 1>they were saying that maybe we should maybe we shouldn't

1:00:36.720 --> 1:00:39.960
<v Speaker 1>allow the Congress to be intransigent. Remember how much you

1:00:40.080 --> 1:00:43.919
<v Speaker 1>heard about being obstructionist under the Obama years. We would

1:00:43.920 --> 1:00:47.480
<v Speaker 1>always here all obstruction. Obstruction was just a fancy way

1:00:47.480 --> 1:00:52.520
<v Speaker 1>of saying Republicans won't do what Obama is telling them

1:00:52.560 --> 1:00:57.120
<v Speaker 1>to do because they're Republicans and they got elected because

1:00:57.120 --> 1:00:59.720
<v Speaker 1>they said they would oppose Obama. But that was called

1:00:59.760 --> 1:01:04.840
<v Speaker 1>the instruction and obstructionism, and that was unacceptable. You see. Meanwhile,

1:01:05.000 --> 1:01:08.720
<v Speaker 1>when the Democrats now stand in the way of Trump's

1:01:08.720 --> 1:01:12.200
<v Speaker 1>agenda at every turn that's considered checks and balances. See,

1:01:12.200 --> 1:01:13.800
<v Speaker 1>this is the game at the media place, this is

1:01:13.800 --> 1:01:18.360
<v Speaker 1>the game at the left is into and I just

1:01:19.000 --> 1:01:23.120
<v Speaker 1>wish that they would establish some degree of honesty and consistency,

1:01:23.160 --> 1:01:24.800
<v Speaker 1>because then I could take them seriously when they talk

1:01:24.800 --> 1:01:27.960
<v Speaker 1>about the Constitution. But when Democrats like Nancy Pelosi talk

1:01:28.000 --> 1:01:31.080
<v Speaker 1>about the Constitution, it's a little bit like when most

1:01:31.080 --> 1:01:33.280
<v Speaker 1>Democrats on the left start to talk about the Bible.

1:01:34.080 --> 1:01:38.000
<v Speaker 1>You know, they sound like they're coming across it in

1:01:38.040 --> 1:01:40.720
<v Speaker 1>the teleprompter for the first time. You know, Yeah, it's

1:01:40.800 --> 1:01:46.200
<v Speaker 1>like my favorite book in the New Testament job you

1:01:46.280 --> 1:01:50.040
<v Speaker 1>know that one, or maybe it was the Old Testament,

1:01:50.120 --> 1:01:52.880
<v Speaker 1>who knows. It's like when they talk about guns. Do

1:01:52.960 --> 1:01:54.880
<v Speaker 1>a lot of Democrats they talk about guns, you know,

1:01:54.920 --> 1:01:57.200
<v Speaker 1>they just want to I just want to ban the

1:01:57.320 --> 1:02:01.320
<v Speaker 1>like Buzuka chain machine gun thingy because it's bad and

1:02:01.440 --> 1:02:04.720
<v Speaker 1>it hurts people sit around. I say, maybe if they

1:02:04.720 --> 1:02:07.560
<v Speaker 1>were so upset about what guns do and about, and

1:02:07.640 --> 1:02:09.840
<v Speaker 1>they had so many problems that they thought could be

1:02:09.840 --> 1:02:12.880
<v Speaker 1>solved with gun control, they would at least learn something

1:02:12.920 --> 1:02:16.000
<v Speaker 1>about guns. But I digress. On this issue of the

1:02:16.640 --> 1:02:20.600
<v Speaker 1>wall and the national emergency that Democrats are pretending this

1:02:20.640 --> 1:02:23.880
<v Speaker 1>is not an emergency. I really hope comes back to

1:02:24.240 --> 1:02:27.520
<v Speaker 1>bite them in twenty twenty. And here's how I think

1:02:27.520 --> 1:02:30.680
<v Speaker 1>it might happen. Right now, they think this is good politics,

1:02:30.720 --> 1:02:35.920
<v Speaker 1>gets their base of crazy people energized, all these left wing,

1:02:37.560 --> 1:02:40.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, angry hippie types who are all for the

1:02:41.000 --> 1:02:43.240
<v Speaker 1>Green New Deal and all this stuff. They get excited

1:02:43.240 --> 1:02:46.680
<v Speaker 1>about this. But here's what's going to happen. Congress is

1:02:46.720 --> 1:02:50.640
<v Speaker 1>not going to take any action on asylum. Congress is

1:02:50.680 --> 1:02:52.520
<v Speaker 1>not going to do anything to deal with the fact

1:02:52.560 --> 1:02:57.920
<v Speaker 1>that we have now a border that has incredibly large loopholes,

1:02:57.960 --> 1:03:03.120
<v Speaker 1>that has all kinds of ways that people can abuse,

1:03:03.800 --> 1:03:06.680
<v Speaker 1>can abuse to get in. So what's gonna happen is

1:03:06.720 --> 1:03:09.320
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna have a year where at the end of

1:03:09.320 --> 1:03:12.760
<v Speaker 1>the year, going to the twenty twenty elections, there will

1:03:12.800 --> 1:03:17.360
<v Speaker 1>be would I would bet five hundred thousand people who

1:03:17.440 --> 1:03:23.640
<v Speaker 1>have crossed into the country illegally or in an asylum

1:03:23.760 --> 1:03:29.200
<v Speaker 1>requests request gambit that is all but certain to be

1:03:29.600 --> 1:03:32.760
<v Speaker 1>fraudulent and fake. So you'll have a half a million

1:03:32.760 --> 1:03:34.520
<v Speaker 1>people who will have crossed, which is starting to get

1:03:34.600 --> 1:03:37.160
<v Speaker 1>back to the numbers of the worst days ever at

1:03:37.200 --> 1:03:39.480
<v Speaker 1>the border. And here's what they won't tell you, but

1:03:39.560 --> 1:03:43.280
<v Speaker 1>I will. The crisis now is worse than it was

1:03:43.440 --> 1:03:45.480
<v Speaker 1>in the early two thousands when they got up to

1:03:45.480 --> 1:03:50.520
<v Speaker 1>a million a year, because the rate of removal of

1:03:50.560 --> 1:03:53.600
<v Speaker 1>those million was very was very high compared to what

1:03:53.600 --> 1:03:56.560
<v Speaker 1>it is now. A lot of people who were crossing

1:03:56.560 --> 1:03:59.360
<v Speaker 1>illegally are being caught and immediately deported during the worst

1:03:59.360 --> 1:04:03.760
<v Speaker 1>times of a crossing at the southern border. Now the

1:04:03.880 --> 1:04:07.400
<v Speaker 1>number who are being quickly processed and turned around for

1:04:07.560 --> 1:04:13.240
<v Speaker 1>deportation is a much lower percentage. So whereas you had

1:04:13.280 --> 1:04:16.080
<v Speaker 1>maybe a million people a year coming into the country then,

1:04:16.120 --> 1:04:19.040
<v Speaker 1>but you had hundreds of thousands of them immediately deported

1:04:20.680 --> 1:04:24.360
<v Speaker 1>now because of changes in the law, because of changes

1:04:24.400 --> 1:04:27.680
<v Speaker 1>in the interpretation of the law by judges, and because

1:04:27.720 --> 1:04:30.280
<v Speaker 1>of the abuse of the asylum process and the fact

1:04:30.280 --> 1:04:34.600
<v Speaker 1>that the courts are so incredibly backlogged. You know, with

1:04:34.720 --> 1:04:39.760
<v Speaker 1>all of that going on, you have a very small

1:04:39.800 --> 1:04:41.960
<v Speaker 1>percentage of these people who are going to be deported,

1:04:42.400 --> 1:04:45.080
<v Speaker 1>which means that the problem, the crisis at the border

1:04:45.200 --> 1:04:51.000
<v Speaker 1>is actually much much worse because now the illegal crossings

1:04:51.000 --> 1:04:55.080
<v Speaker 1>are going to result in permanent illegal aliens in this country.

1:04:55.080 --> 1:04:58.840
<v Speaker 1>They're not going anywhere. So not only is there a

1:04:58.840 --> 1:05:01.480
<v Speaker 1>crisis at the border, based on the numbers we're already seeing,

1:05:02.120 --> 1:05:04.040
<v Speaker 1>by the end of the year, the numbers are going

1:05:04.080 --> 1:05:06.880
<v Speaker 1>to show that this is as bad as it's ever

1:05:06.920 --> 1:05:09.680
<v Speaker 1>been from an overall or at least close to what

1:05:09.760 --> 1:05:14.600
<v Speaker 1>it's been from an overall crossing number. But the number

1:05:15.200 --> 1:05:17.480
<v Speaker 1>or the percentage and number of those who have crossed

1:05:17.520 --> 1:05:21.200
<v Speaker 1>into the country and have been deported is going to

1:05:21.240 --> 1:05:22.960
<v Speaker 1>be so low that we're going to see as we

1:05:23.040 --> 1:05:27.240
<v Speaker 1>have a near open border situation that our southern border

1:05:27.240 --> 1:05:29.960
<v Speaker 1>that anybody who shows up and says they want to

1:05:30.000 --> 1:05:32.080
<v Speaker 1>be in this country and tells a tale and has

1:05:32.080 --> 1:05:34.240
<v Speaker 1>a story is going to be able to stay. And

1:05:34.320 --> 1:05:37.880
<v Speaker 1>that is absolutely a crisis. If you believe in sovereignty,

1:05:37.920 --> 1:05:40.080
<v Speaker 1>if you believe in rule of law, what is happening

1:05:40.120 --> 1:05:42.760
<v Speaker 1>the borders a crisis. And so for the Democrats to

1:05:42.920 --> 1:05:44.920
<v Speaker 1>have gone to all these lengths right now to say

1:05:44.960 --> 1:05:49.200
<v Speaker 1>there is no crisis, I hope I hope that fifty

1:05:49.240 --> 1:05:51.480
<v Speaker 1>one percent or more of the American voting public is

1:05:51.480 --> 1:05:54.840
<v Speaker 1>paying attention and realizes that Democrats are a bunch of

1:05:55.040 --> 1:05:59.520
<v Speaker 1>liars on this issue. They are liars. It is absolutely

1:05:59.520 --> 1:06:02.320
<v Speaker 1>when the press its authority to declare this emergency, it

1:06:02.560 --> 1:06:05.840
<v Speaker 1>is an emergency, and building a wall in areas that

1:06:05.880 --> 1:06:11.000
<v Speaker 1>are particularly susceptible to illegal crossing would help this crisis.

1:06:14.680 --> 1:06:20.520
<v Speaker 1>Effective today, the United States will impose additional sanctions on

1:06:20.600 --> 1:06:23.600
<v Speaker 1>regime officials. These men work to block aid for people

1:06:23.760 --> 1:06:32.320
<v Speaker 1>in need and suppress peaceful protests while they're tyrant danced

1:06:32.360 --> 1:06:40.200
<v Speaker 1>in Caracas. Their actions will not go unpunished. More sanctions

1:06:40.840 --> 1:06:44.360
<v Speaker 1>from the US against Venezuela, trying to get rid of

1:06:44.360 --> 1:06:53.080
<v Speaker 1>this absolute tyrannical jerk Maduro who is just continuing on

1:06:53.200 --> 1:07:00.680
<v Speaker 1>with the stupid policies of his predecessor Chavez. And there's

1:07:00.720 --> 1:07:03.120
<v Speaker 1>obviously so much we could sit here and talk about

1:07:03.160 --> 1:07:07.000
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to what a failed state and a

1:07:07.040 --> 1:07:11.400
<v Speaker 1>catastrophe Venezuela has become. And I think it's it's important

1:07:11.440 --> 1:07:14.880
<v Speaker 1>it did not have to be this way. It did

1:07:15.120 --> 1:07:19.280
<v Speaker 1>not have to come apart like this. Venezuela did not

1:07:19.360 --> 1:07:26.640
<v Speaker 1>suffer from some horrible, unforeseeable financial calamity. Venezuela is not

1:07:26.760 --> 1:07:30.000
<v Speaker 1>trying to recover from some terrible civil war or something

1:07:30.480 --> 1:07:35.240
<v Speaker 1>that the problem of Venezuela is people got into power

1:07:35.800 --> 1:07:42.240
<v Speaker 1>who believe in Marxist doctrine and the redistribution of wealth,

1:07:42.640 --> 1:07:48.320
<v Speaker 1>who embrace class warfare and anti Americanism as an explanation

1:07:48.400 --> 1:07:53.280
<v Speaker 1>for the shortcomings of their country and their countrymen. And

1:07:53.520 --> 1:07:56.000
<v Speaker 1>this is the end result of all of that, all right,

1:07:56.000 --> 1:07:59.240
<v Speaker 1>This is the end result. And I do think that

1:07:59.320 --> 1:08:03.080
<v Speaker 1>we need to strike a careful balance between trying to

1:08:03.280 --> 1:08:06.840
<v Speaker 1>push for the ouster of or help you see this thing,

1:08:06.880 --> 1:08:08.360
<v Speaker 1>even when you start to say it, I know, I'm

1:08:08.360 --> 1:08:10.479
<v Speaker 1>the x CIA guy. So I start talking about coup

1:08:10.520 --> 1:08:12.680
<v Speaker 1>and everyone goes, ooh, coup, and I'm like, look, guys,

1:08:12.680 --> 1:08:15.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm out of that game. I don't know anything. I

1:08:15.040 --> 1:08:19.920
<v Speaker 1>have no idea what's going on at that level. But

1:08:20.160 --> 1:08:25.120
<v Speaker 1>just even discussing helping to get rid of somebody in

1:08:25.160 --> 1:08:28.479
<v Speaker 1>a Central or South American country from the US government

1:08:28.479 --> 1:08:30.720
<v Speaker 1>perspective brings up a lot of history and a lot

1:08:30.760 --> 1:08:33.479
<v Speaker 1>of baggage with it, and I think we're making the

1:08:33.560 --> 1:08:37.280
<v Speaker 1>right call by backing Kwaid. I would also note though,

1:08:37.280 --> 1:08:44.800
<v Speaker 1>that the possibility for there to be some form of overreach, blowback,

1:08:44.960 --> 1:08:48.559
<v Speaker 1>mission creep all that stuff. Essentially we end up getting

1:08:48.600 --> 1:08:50.960
<v Speaker 1>more involved in this than we want to, and that's

1:08:51.120 --> 1:08:54.240
<v Speaker 1>very real. We got a little reminder of that, I

1:08:54.280 --> 1:08:59.960
<v Speaker 1>think yesterday when Jorge Ramos, most well known I think

1:09:00.200 --> 1:09:05.200
<v Speaker 1>for being a Univision anchor and de facto open borders advocate,

1:09:05.560 --> 1:09:09.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, very concerned about illegal immigrants, at least when

1:09:09.720 --> 1:09:12.640
<v Speaker 1>they're Latino illegal immigrants. In general, he seems to have

1:09:12.720 --> 1:09:17.320
<v Speaker 1>less less of a strong position on but he is very,

1:09:17.520 --> 1:09:21.920
<v Speaker 1>very favorable in his coverage and in his analysis and

1:09:22.880 --> 1:09:26.080
<v Speaker 1>all of that to the illegal immigrant Latino population in

1:09:26.080 --> 1:09:29.200
<v Speaker 1>this country for obvious reasons. You know, he's a millionaire

1:09:29.240 --> 1:09:31.640
<v Speaker 1>who lives in Miami, and he can talk all the

1:09:31.680 --> 1:09:33.519
<v Speaker 1>time about how he just wants them to be more

1:09:33.520 --> 1:09:36.840
<v Speaker 1>and more legal aliens in this country. But he was

1:09:37.200 --> 1:09:43.679
<v Speaker 1>detained yesterday after having an interview with Maduro that Maduro

1:09:43.800 --> 1:09:46.559
<v Speaker 1>and his people didn't like very much. Blake clip Ten

1:09:47.200 --> 1:09:52.000
<v Speaker 1>I conducted an interview with Nicolas Mahuro. I ask him

1:09:52.080 --> 1:09:55.599
<v Speaker 1>if I can call him either a precedent or a dictator,

1:09:55.680 --> 1:09:59.080
<v Speaker 1>because as you know, millions of Venezuelans don't consider him

1:09:59.400 --> 1:10:05.040
<v Speaker 1>a president. And then we discussed the reports of torture

1:10:05.880 --> 1:10:09.800
<v Speaker 1>and human rights abuses and political prisoners, and at the

1:10:09.920 --> 1:10:14.200
<v Speaker 1>end I showed him a video that I personally took

1:10:14.760 --> 1:10:21.920
<v Speaker 1>last Sunday of three kids behind a trash truck looking

1:10:21.960 --> 1:10:25.439
<v Speaker 1>for food. He just couldn't stand it. He didn't want

1:10:25.479 --> 1:10:28.919
<v Speaker 1>to continue the interview. He tried to close my iPad

1:10:28.920 --> 1:10:31.599
<v Speaker 1>where I showed him the video, and then he said

1:10:31.640 --> 1:10:33.879
<v Speaker 1>the interview was over. I didn't want to give them

1:10:34.040 --> 1:10:38.200
<v Speaker 1>my cell phone, so they turned off the light of

1:10:38.280 --> 1:10:42.439
<v Speaker 1>the room and a group of agents came in. They

1:10:42.479 --> 1:10:47.880
<v Speaker 1>took forcefully in my backpack, my cell phone, and they

1:10:47.960 --> 1:10:51.519
<v Speaker 1>forced us to give them our pass coals. After two

1:10:51.560 --> 1:10:54.519
<v Speaker 1>hours of being detained because we couldn't leave the palace.

1:10:54.600 --> 1:10:59.040
<v Speaker 1>Two hours of being detained, they allow us to leave

1:10:59.080 --> 1:11:02.400
<v Speaker 1>the presidential Palace. I think we'll never have that. That

1:11:02.520 --> 1:11:07.880
<v Speaker 1>they don't want the world to see what we do now.

1:11:08.920 --> 1:11:11.320
<v Speaker 1>That should send a little bit of a chill down

1:11:11.360 --> 1:11:13.080
<v Speaker 1>your spine. I mean, we are dealing with it. We

1:11:13.120 --> 1:11:17.120
<v Speaker 1>are dealing with a thug government here, and any analysts

1:11:17.120 --> 1:11:19.800
<v Speaker 1>who are down there are taking some risks when they

1:11:19.840 --> 1:11:23.040
<v Speaker 1>sit down, assuming they're going to ask real questions, assuming

1:11:23.040 --> 1:11:26.600
<v Speaker 1>they're going to pose to this guy the reality of

1:11:26.640 --> 1:11:28.360
<v Speaker 1>the country that I mean, he has presented over the

1:11:28.400 --> 1:11:33.160
<v Speaker 1>complete and utter ruination of Venezuela and did not have

1:11:33.200 --> 1:11:38.160
<v Speaker 1>to be this way. But he has been intransigent, and

1:11:38.240 --> 1:11:41.760
<v Speaker 1>he's corrupt, and he's a bad guy. And when you

1:11:41.840 --> 1:11:44.800
<v Speaker 1>ask a bad guy why he is that way, it

1:11:44.880 --> 1:11:47.200
<v Speaker 1>tends not to take it very well. And obviously Mduro

1:11:47.920 --> 1:11:51.519
<v Speaker 1>did not take it well, did not want to have

1:11:51.560 --> 1:11:55.360
<v Speaker 1>to answer these kinds of questions, and so they seized him.

1:11:55.360 --> 1:11:58.280
<v Speaker 1>But I would note, you know, Hory Ramos, producer, Mike,

1:11:58.960 --> 1:12:00.799
<v Speaker 1>is he a U. I think he's a US citizen,

1:12:00.840 --> 1:12:04.040
<v Speaker 1>So let's assume he is. Yes, Yes, he is. Yeah,

1:12:04.080 --> 1:12:07.400
<v Speaker 1>So Horrey Ramos is a US citizen. You know, you

1:12:07.439 --> 1:12:10.799
<v Speaker 1>grab one of ours, and I'm because we are principal.

1:12:10.840 --> 1:12:14.600
<v Speaker 1>Then we are conservatives and we are Americans. Darn it.

1:12:15.200 --> 1:12:18.639
<v Speaker 1>You know, you grab one of ours, we we unify,

1:12:19.040 --> 1:12:22.040
<v Speaker 1>we are together. You know, Jorge Ramos is one of us.

1:12:22.080 --> 1:12:24.599
<v Speaker 1>He is a US citizen. So you lay a hand

1:12:24.640 --> 1:12:28.320
<v Speaker 1>on jorgey in some foreign country, you're some dictator, some stooge,

1:12:28.439 --> 1:12:34.880
<v Speaker 1>some some squad of of of ruffians. We need the

1:12:34.960 --> 1:12:37.880
<v Speaker 1>full weight and force the United States government to make

1:12:37.920 --> 1:12:41.360
<v Speaker 1>sure that you get out of there. This is what

1:12:41.400 --> 1:12:43.040
<v Speaker 1>I mean by this stuff can get out of hand

1:12:43.160 --> 1:12:46.120
<v Speaker 1>very very quickly. You know, if they had seized our diplomats,

1:12:46.160 --> 1:12:49.920
<v Speaker 1>that's an active war. What if they seize a bunch

1:12:49.960 --> 1:12:54.599
<v Speaker 1>of American citizen journalists, What if Majorro seizes them? Are

1:12:54.640 --> 1:12:57.559
<v Speaker 1>we gonna escalate even further? I think the answer has

1:12:57.600 --> 1:13:00.240
<v Speaker 1>to be yes, you can't touch our people. You know,

1:13:00.320 --> 1:13:04.240
<v Speaker 1>It's like Jack Nicholson in The Departed. There are guys

1:13:04.280 --> 1:13:06.920
<v Speaker 1>he can't hit. And as far as I'm concerned, and

1:13:07.080 --> 1:13:09.360
<v Speaker 1>as far as you know, I think all Americans should

1:13:09.360 --> 1:13:12.880
<v Speaker 1>be concerned. On the world stage, no foreign government is

1:13:12.960 --> 1:13:17.719
<v Speaker 1>able to without obviously legal justification. But no foreign government's

1:13:17.760 --> 1:13:20.519
<v Speaker 1>able to take one of our people, and certainly not

1:13:20.600 --> 1:13:23.679
<v Speaker 1>for an interview. So I gotta tell you on this one,

1:13:24.160 --> 1:13:27.040
<v Speaker 1>I stand with Jorge Man and I'm glad Jores out

1:13:27.040 --> 1:13:28.680
<v Speaker 1>of there, because if we had to send in our

1:13:28.720 --> 1:13:31.760
<v Speaker 1>guys to free him and his team, I'd be all

1:13:31.800 --> 1:13:34.760
<v Speaker 1>for it. A US citizen and I know some of

1:13:34.760 --> 1:13:36.600
<v Speaker 1>you really don't like Jorge, and I get that, but

1:13:36.640 --> 1:13:38.759
<v Speaker 1>a citizen is a citizen. Man, He's one of ours,

1:13:39.560 --> 1:13:42.240
<v Speaker 1>so we got to remember that. But Venezuela, that just

1:13:42.240 --> 1:13:45.559
<v Speaker 1>shows you how quickly this thing can can actually spiral

1:13:45.640 --> 1:13:47.479
<v Speaker 1>out of control. That's what we got to be very careful.

1:13:47.840 --> 1:13:50.519
<v Speaker 1>We want mcduau gone, but we don't want to make

1:13:50.560 --> 1:13:53.639
<v Speaker 1>this our problem. We got enough problems here. Well, look

1:13:53.640 --> 1:13:55.920
<v Speaker 1>at the Democrats in the House and the Green New

1:13:56.040 --> 1:13:59.200
<v Speaker 1>Deal and the lunacy that these people are are pushing for,

1:13:59.400 --> 1:14:01.960
<v Speaker 1>the crazy that they're talking about. We got our hands

1:14:02.000 --> 1:14:05.000
<v Speaker 1>full handling all that stuff. We don't want to be

1:14:05.000 --> 1:14:06.479
<v Speaker 1>in a position where we have to try to deal

1:14:06.520 --> 1:14:12.160
<v Speaker 1>with all the deprivation and destruction inside of Venezuela. Man.

1:14:12.200 --> 1:14:16.280
<v Speaker 1>We do not want another reconstruction mission, so we'll keep

1:14:16.280 --> 1:14:17.720
<v Speaker 1>an eye on it, but we got to keep arms

1:14:17.800 --> 1:14:24.760
<v Speaker 1>length too. The only dual certified veteran owned background investigation

<v Speaker 1>Musky Caps strictly need to know Team Buck is cleared

1:15:37.240 --> 1:15:40.120
<v Speaker 1>and ready for the Buck Brief. It is more likely

1:15:40.160 --> 1:15:43.519
<v Speaker 1>than not that there is a conflict, possibly a full

1:15:43.600 --> 1:15:47.040
<v Speaker 1>blown war with an allerging nuclear power. He is not

1:15:47.120 --> 1:15:50.479
<v Speaker 1>merely being cavalier with a threat about nuclear war. He's

1:15:50.520 --> 1:15:53.560
<v Speaker 1>been cavalier in a way that makes him seem demented.

1:15:53.640 --> 1:15:55.760
<v Speaker 1>These are the messages from a person who is not well,

1:15:55.920 --> 1:15:58.599
<v Speaker 1>from a leader who is not fit for office, after

1:15:58.640 --> 1:16:02.360
<v Speaker 1>a nuclear holocaust, after a million diars. And that's where

1:16:02.400 --> 1:16:05.720
<v Speaker 1>we are. This is not an exaggeration, probably closer to

1:16:06.320 --> 1:16:09.519
<v Speaker 1>an outright war with North Korea. Got a thirty percent

1:16:09.640 --> 1:16:12.120
<v Speaker 1>chance of war. I'd say, from where I sit right now,

1:16:12.320 --> 1:16:15.560
<v Speaker 1>easily construe what he's been saying as a declaration or

1:16:15.600 --> 1:16:17.879
<v Speaker 1>at least a threat of war. What is the ignition

1:16:17.920 --> 1:16:21.120
<v Speaker 1>point for Kimy and Moon's fuse with this provrocative rhetoric.

1:16:21.200 --> 1:16:24.479
<v Speaker 1>Trump's comments about nuclear weapons have experts worried he could

1:16:24.760 --> 1:16:28.360
<v Speaker 1>literally inadvertently trigger a catastrophe. You have reason to be

1:16:28.439 --> 1:16:31.200
<v Speaker 1>scared of a war that could wipe out five hundred

1:16:31.200 --> 1:16:33.840
<v Speaker 1>thousand people. No, I just think he wants to use nukes.

1:16:33.920 --> 1:16:39.120
<v Speaker 1>That's what I think he feels. What a bunch of lunatics.

1:16:40.439 --> 1:16:45.000
<v Speaker 1>That's just giving you a little a little sense of

1:16:45.320 --> 1:16:50.719
<v Speaker 1>what's going on here with the media. As Trump enters

1:16:50.800 --> 1:16:57.599
<v Speaker 1>this moment of high stakes diplomacy in Hanoi. We'll say

1:16:57.640 --> 1:17:00.920
<v Speaker 1>that I never got to when I was in Vietnam,

1:17:01.000 --> 1:17:04.680
<v Speaker 1>only got to Saigan. But I'm sure I know he's

1:17:04.720 --> 1:17:07.439
<v Speaker 1>a very interesting place to visit. So Trump's there right now.

1:17:07.560 --> 1:17:09.280
<v Speaker 1>The media have been saying for a long time that

1:17:09.320 --> 1:17:11.160
<v Speaker 1>he was going to start I mean you heard it.

1:17:11.240 --> 1:17:14.080
<v Speaker 1>They were saying, oh, the risk of nuclear war. They're

1:17:14.120 --> 1:17:17.519
<v Speaker 1>all so concerned about it. Now they're worried that Trump

1:17:17.640 --> 1:17:20.920
<v Speaker 1>is trying too hard to get a piece deal. Whatever

1:17:20.960 --> 1:17:25.280
<v Speaker 1>it is that Trump is doing that is always and

1:17:25.479 --> 1:17:29.120
<v Speaker 1>it always the most awful thing for them. That's the

1:17:29.120 --> 1:17:33.040
<v Speaker 1>thing that they cannot forgive because Trump is the worst.

1:17:33.560 --> 1:17:37.360
<v Speaker 1>In fact, the Libs are so hateful toward Trump that

1:17:37.400 --> 1:17:40.559
<v Speaker 1>you don't ever really pick up that they hate Kim

1:17:40.680 --> 1:17:44.640
<v Speaker 1>Jong un or that they find this character to be odious.

1:17:45.600 --> 1:17:50.840
<v Speaker 1>There was a pretty stark piece today in the Daily

1:17:50.920 --> 1:17:57.160
<v Speaker 1>Mail that broke down some of Kim Jung UN's most

1:17:57.560 --> 1:18:01.320
<v Speaker 1>sadistic hits. This is some Daily Mail. Kim Jong un

1:18:02.080 --> 1:18:09.160
<v Speaker 1>is using barbaric methods to purge officials and cling onto power.

1:18:09.600 --> 1:18:13.600
<v Speaker 1>According to an investigation out of South Korea, the dictator

1:18:13.680 --> 1:18:16.840
<v Speaker 1>has had four hundred and twenty one officials executed in

1:18:17.000 --> 1:18:21.120
<v Speaker 1>exile since seizing power in twenty eleven, with victims being

1:18:21.280 --> 1:18:26.719
<v Speaker 1>fed naked to hunting dogs, blown up with anti aircraft guns,

1:18:27.520 --> 1:18:33.400
<v Speaker 1>burned alive with flamethrowers, and hanged. In some cases, entire

1:18:33.520 --> 1:18:38.000
<v Speaker 1>families of officials have been executed, while others were imprisoned

1:18:38.040 --> 1:18:44.280
<v Speaker 1>in concentration camps and erased from society. Kim is also

1:18:44.280 --> 1:18:47.280
<v Speaker 1>said to have ordered the execution of his own family members,

1:18:47.560 --> 1:18:51.720
<v Speaker 1>including his uncle Jang Song take, who was executed in

1:18:51.760 --> 1:18:55.160
<v Speaker 1>twenty thirteen, and his half brother jong nam, who was

1:18:55.200 --> 1:18:58.080
<v Speaker 1>assassinated at a Malaysian airport in twenty seventeen. Some of

1:18:58.080 --> 1:19:02.760
<v Speaker 1>you probably remember that one's and he had U or

1:19:02.960 --> 1:19:06.360
<v Speaker 1>when the when Kim Jong gun had two female assassins

1:19:07.240 --> 1:19:12.000
<v Speaker 1>go up to Kim Jong un and wipe a nerve

1:19:12.080 --> 1:19:16.559
<v Speaker 1>gas a nerve toxin across his mouth, and the guy

1:19:16.600 --> 1:19:22.639
<v Speaker 1>then died. Pretty brazen attack. But this is who we're

1:19:22.760 --> 1:19:25.120
<v Speaker 1>we're dealing with here. I mean, this is the individual

1:19:26.000 --> 1:19:30.880
<v Speaker 1>that the media spends far less time updating the American

1:19:30.920 --> 1:19:34.559
<v Speaker 1>people on, because I think if they understood just how

1:19:34.600 --> 1:19:38.679
<v Speaker 1>sadistic the regime is and how and how how sadistic

1:19:38.720 --> 1:19:41.720
<v Speaker 1>it has been, then maybe they'd have a greater understanding

1:19:41.760 --> 1:19:45.120
<v Speaker 1>of the status quo. Is not acceptable that US just

1:19:45.200 --> 1:19:48.799
<v Speaker 1>waiting around to see how advanced North Korea's nuclear program

1:19:48.880 --> 1:19:52.920
<v Speaker 1>can get. Uh, that's that's not going to end well

1:19:52.960 --> 1:19:56.120
<v Speaker 1>for anybody, for anyone involved. I do have to say

1:19:56.160 --> 1:19:59.200
<v Speaker 1>that the some of the reporting about Kim Jong gun

1:19:59.280 --> 1:20:02.559
<v Speaker 1>is is kind of interesting. This guy shows up, that's

1:20:02.600 --> 1:20:05.800
<v Speaker 1>not about him being a statistic maniac. This guy shows

1:20:05.880 --> 1:20:09.960
<v Speaker 1>up in an armored train that's traveled two thousand miles

1:20:09.960 --> 1:20:16.880
<v Speaker 1>from the Korean peninsula and he is. It said that

1:20:16.960 --> 1:20:21.560
<v Speaker 1>he might be wearing two inch lifts. So Kim is

1:20:21.640 --> 1:20:25.920
<v Speaker 1>kind of a widow guy. And also, you know, he

1:20:26.200 --> 1:20:30.639
<v Speaker 1>is smoking, which is only interesting because the Washington Post report.

1:20:30.720 --> 1:20:34.000
<v Speaker 1>Since a nationwide anti smoking campaign began a North Korea

1:20:34.080 --> 1:20:37.519
<v Speaker 1>twenty sixteen, Kim Jong owen has rarely been seen with

1:20:37.560 --> 1:20:40.120
<v Speaker 1>a cigarette in his hand. But this week, as the

1:20:40.160 --> 1:20:42.120
<v Speaker 1>young North Korean leader made his way to Vietnam, we

1:20:42.200 --> 1:20:46.240
<v Speaker 1>got confirmation he hasn't given up the habit. Japan's TBS

1:20:46.439 --> 1:20:50.560
<v Speaker 1>JNN caught footage of Kim pacing up on the platform

1:20:50.640 --> 1:20:54.200
<v Speaker 1>taking a smoke during his sixty five hour train journey

1:20:54.320 --> 1:20:59.880
<v Speaker 1>from pyeong Yang. So he's a smoker. So I guess

1:21:00.240 --> 1:21:03.559
<v Speaker 1>Obama have that in common. Remember Obama used to smoke cigarettes.

1:21:03.560 --> 1:21:06.240
<v Speaker 1>The media would and not that I care. You know, fine,

1:21:06.240 --> 1:21:08.240
<v Speaker 1>he's a guy smoke cigarettes. The media was always a

1:21:08.280 --> 1:21:10.000
<v Speaker 1>little touchy about it, though, you know, we don't want

1:21:10.040 --> 1:21:13.000
<v Speaker 1>to show anybody that Obama is a smoker. Well, it's

1:21:13.040 --> 1:21:17.840
<v Speaker 1>definitely touchy North Korea for whatever reason. Mike producer Mike

1:21:17.880 --> 1:21:20.400
<v Speaker 1>makes a good point here that they should really like

1:21:20.640 --> 1:21:24.080
<v Speaker 1>Kim Jong un insofar as he's willing to take a

1:21:24.120 --> 1:21:27.720
<v Speaker 1>train two thousand miles. You know, maybe maybe Kim Jong

1:21:27.800 --> 1:21:30.360
<v Speaker 1>un would be on board for the Green New deal

1:21:30.880 --> 1:21:34.680
<v Speaker 1>that makes a train that goes from the continent the

1:21:34.720 --> 1:21:40.040
<v Speaker 1>United States to Hawaii. I suppose that that is possible. Anyway,

1:21:40.160 --> 1:21:42.160
<v Speaker 1>there's a look, there's a lot of pageantry around this,

1:21:42.320 --> 1:21:45.040
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of media attention, and there are thousands

1:21:45.080 --> 1:21:48.559
<v Speaker 1>of journalists right now who have converged on Hannoy to

1:21:48.600 --> 1:21:52.920
<v Speaker 1>talk about this. I have pretty low expectations, as I've

1:21:52.920 --> 1:21:54.439
<v Speaker 1>been telling you. This is why I'm not leading the

1:21:54.479 --> 1:21:56.000
<v Speaker 1>show with this. I know there are a lot of

1:21:56.040 --> 1:22:00.360
<v Speaker 1>people that are spending probably more time in this than

1:22:00.400 --> 1:22:01.719
<v Speaker 1>I am, But I mean, I just have to say

1:22:01.760 --> 1:22:05.200
<v Speaker 1>that I don't see this. I don't see this resulting

1:22:06.439 --> 1:22:13.000
<v Speaker 1>in any kind of major breakthrough. It's just very unlikely

1:22:13.200 --> 1:22:17.160
<v Speaker 1>that North Korea is going to give up nuclear weapons.

1:22:17.160 --> 1:22:20.280
<v Speaker 1>And I can't help but think that part of this

1:22:20.400 --> 1:22:24.000
<v Speaker 1>is the biggest part of this, is that there's obviously

1:22:24.960 --> 1:22:29.360
<v Speaker 1>a incredibly militaristic outlook from the North Korean State and

1:22:30.120 --> 1:22:33.519
<v Speaker 1>the North Korean state. The propaganda. We always think of

1:22:33.560 --> 1:22:36.840
<v Speaker 1>propaganda as it just affects the people like the masses,

1:22:37.360 --> 1:22:39.519
<v Speaker 1>but in the case of North Korea. How much have

1:22:40.040 --> 1:22:44.080
<v Speaker 1>the leadership bought into this? How much of what we

1:22:44.080 --> 1:22:49.280
<v Speaker 1>were seeing with the North Korean people and the incredibly

1:22:49.520 --> 1:22:54.960
<v Speaker 1>xenophobic and racist caricatures of Americans and of other Asians

1:22:55.040 --> 1:22:57.000
<v Speaker 1>that is fed to the North Korean people on a

1:22:57.040 --> 1:23:03.280
<v Speaker 1>regular basis. How much of that is also internalized by

1:23:03.320 --> 1:23:06.000
<v Speaker 1>at least some of the senior leadership. I think a lot.

1:23:07.320 --> 1:23:09.160
<v Speaker 1>It would be fascinating if I could sit down and

1:23:09.240 --> 1:23:15.280
<v Speaker 1>have an honest, the off the record conversation with any

1:23:15.280 --> 1:23:17.040
<v Speaker 1>world leader. I mean, Kim John Un would be an

1:23:17.080 --> 1:23:20.559
<v Speaker 1>incredibly interesting guy to talk to. You know, he is

1:23:20.600 --> 1:23:23.600
<v Speaker 1>a I mean, he is a mass murderer. So but

1:23:23.680 --> 1:23:25.200
<v Speaker 1>then again, I mean, it would be interesting to sit

1:23:25.240 --> 1:23:28.920
<v Speaker 1>down and talk to a lot of mass murderers. You know,

1:23:28.960 --> 1:23:30.960
<v Speaker 1>what does he really believe? What does he really think?

1:23:31.000 --> 1:23:33.519
<v Speaker 1>He went to boarding school in Switzerland, so he's been

1:23:34.280 --> 1:23:37.600
<v Speaker 1>exposed to the outside world. I know that a lot

1:23:37.640 --> 1:23:39.559
<v Speaker 1>of people were angry at Trump today because he said

1:23:39.560 --> 1:23:41.639
<v Speaker 1>that Kim John Unn doesn't seem like he's messed up

1:23:41.680 --> 1:23:45.360
<v Speaker 1>from his upbring? Is it? Oh? Trump is calling dictators again.

1:23:45.360 --> 1:23:46.840
<v Speaker 1>I just want to say to them, you know, guys,

1:23:47.520 --> 1:23:49.679
<v Speaker 1>he's trying to get a deal done here. He's trying

1:23:49.720 --> 1:23:53.120
<v Speaker 1>to make some headway. Can you just can you let

1:23:53.160 --> 1:23:55.600
<v Speaker 1>Trump operate a little bit without just breathing down his

1:23:55.680 --> 1:23:59.560
<v Speaker 1>neck about everything on this one. He's trying to essentially

1:23:59.600 --> 1:24:02.679
<v Speaker 1>pull off off the near impossible, And if he pulls

1:24:02.720 --> 1:24:04.960
<v Speaker 1>off the near impossible in this case, he will have

1:24:05.000 --> 1:24:08.880
<v Speaker 1>saved likely I don't know when, I don't know what timeframe,

1:24:08.960 --> 1:24:13.439
<v Speaker 1>but it will save hundreds of thousands of lives. You know,

1:24:13.800 --> 1:24:19.360
<v Speaker 1>that's a very likely scenario. Hundreds of thousands of lives saved.

1:24:20.160 --> 1:24:23.160
<v Speaker 1>And I think that when the president has an option

1:24:23.640 --> 1:24:26.719
<v Speaker 1>to do that and is trying to do that, people

1:24:26.720 --> 1:24:30.960
<v Speaker 1>should maybe just back off a tiny, tiny bit. In

1:24:31.000 --> 1:24:33.360
<v Speaker 1>the media, I'm not saying they can't hold him accountable,

1:24:33.360 --> 1:24:37.160
<v Speaker 1>but I'm just saying that they criticize every word. You know,

1:24:37.280 --> 1:24:39.679
<v Speaker 1>they're so hypothet again, they do that with Trump on everything.

1:24:39.760 --> 1:24:42.759
<v Speaker 1>Everything Trump says is terrible. And we'll see what happens

1:24:42.760 --> 1:24:44.280
<v Speaker 1>in this summit. It goes on for a few days,

1:24:44.320 --> 1:24:45.880
<v Speaker 1>Trump will be back. In fact, Trump will be at

1:24:45.880 --> 1:24:48.679
<v Speaker 1>sea pack at the end of the week, so I'm

1:24:48.720 --> 1:24:53.360
<v Speaker 1>sure he'll give some insight there, and I'm guessing I'll

1:24:53.400 --> 1:24:55.559
<v Speaker 1>be there because I'll be at sea pack about how

1:24:56.000 --> 1:24:58.080
<v Speaker 1>this whole week goes. But the summit is going on

1:24:58.160 --> 1:25:02.559
<v Speaker 1>right now. Yesterday on the show, I talked a bit

1:25:02.600 --> 1:25:07.240
<v Speaker 1>about who gets the presumption of innocence and who doesn't,

1:25:07.960 --> 1:25:14.000
<v Speaker 1>and Professor Dershowitz, who himself has had his reputation tarnished

1:25:14.000 --> 1:25:17.439
<v Speaker 1>with allegations, or at least as he has been very

1:25:17.560 --> 1:25:22.719
<v Speaker 1>vociferous in his denunciations of them, these fake allegations. But

1:25:23.560 --> 1:25:27.759
<v Speaker 1>this is a real problem because we as a society

1:25:28.080 --> 1:25:31.840
<v Speaker 1>need to protect the presumption of innocence as something that

1:25:31.960 --> 1:25:36.639
<v Speaker 1>is not political but is a principle. But we also

1:25:36.720 --> 1:25:39.000
<v Speaker 1>don't want to allow the left to get away with

1:25:39.240 --> 1:25:44.280
<v Speaker 1>weaponizing the presumption of innocence and only using it for

1:25:44.439 --> 1:25:48.559
<v Speaker 1>their own side, and whereas our side gets it taken away,

1:25:49.640 --> 1:25:53.720
<v Speaker 1>creating this imbalance. Right, only Democrats get the presumption. We

1:25:53.800 --> 1:25:56.799
<v Speaker 1>do not get the presumption of innocence. And I meant

1:25:56.840 --> 1:26:02.200
<v Speaker 1>to get to the latest Virginia where you know, right

1:26:02.240 --> 1:26:05.000
<v Speaker 1>now you've got Chicago has the r. Kelly trial and

1:26:05.120 --> 1:26:08.840
<v Speaker 1>the Jesse Smalltt situation, or well the arrest of R.

1:26:08.960 --> 1:26:11.920
<v Speaker 1>Kelly and the Jesse Smallet arrest to deal with, and

1:26:11.960 --> 1:26:14.559
<v Speaker 1>I think Ram Emmanuel stepped down from being the mayor,

1:26:14.560 --> 1:26:16.880
<v Speaker 1>and they had an election today there too, what's up

1:26:16.880 --> 1:26:20.680
<v Speaker 1>Windy City, And you know, so they're getting a lot

1:26:20.680 --> 1:26:24.840
<v Speaker 1>of attention there, and you've gotten far less of a

1:26:24.960 --> 1:26:28.639
<v Speaker 1>media focus on what's happening in Virginia, where you had

1:26:29.240 --> 1:26:34.920
<v Speaker 1>this just string of incredibly damaging stories about the top

1:26:35.160 --> 1:26:38.800
<v Speaker 1>three one, two, three count them politicians for the state

1:26:38.800 --> 1:26:42.400
<v Speaker 1>of Virginia, all of whom were in meshon major scandals. Right.

1:26:42.400 --> 1:26:47.320
<v Speaker 1>We had Northam with his black face photo and his yearbook,

1:26:47.720 --> 1:26:50.080
<v Speaker 1>which he lied about and then kind of didn't lie about,

1:26:50.120 --> 1:26:52.160
<v Speaker 1>but still lies about it. And you also have Mark Harring,

1:26:52.600 --> 1:26:56.080
<v Speaker 1>number three guy, who said that Northam should step down

1:26:56.160 --> 1:26:58.439
<v Speaker 1>for his black face photo, but then it came out

1:26:58.439 --> 1:27:01.680
<v Speaker 1>that Harring himself had maybe had black face photos he

1:27:01.720 --> 1:27:04.080
<v Speaker 1>said in the past. But the number two guy, the

1:27:04.120 --> 1:27:08.760
<v Speaker 1>lieutenant governor of the state of Virginia, just in Fairfax,

1:27:09.439 --> 1:27:16.280
<v Speaker 1>he still stands accused of two very serious sex crimes,

1:27:16.280 --> 1:27:21.840
<v Speaker 1>I mean two sexual assaults, and Fairfax doesn't plan on resigning.

1:27:22.320 --> 1:27:25.599
<v Speaker 1>He called for an FBI investigation, and I wish that

1:27:25.800 --> 1:27:28.559
<v Speaker 1>you know, this is one of the legacies of the

1:27:28.640 --> 1:27:33.400
<v Speaker 1>effort to destroy Cavanaugh that I just wish people would

1:27:33.479 --> 1:27:38.679
<v Speaker 1>understand is completely preposterous. The FBI is not the super police.

1:27:39.320 --> 1:27:42.360
<v Speaker 1>You're not just oh, you're not in a position to say, oh,

1:27:42.439 --> 1:27:45.000
<v Speaker 1>something happened that I want to get the definitive answer

1:27:45.000 --> 1:27:47.080
<v Speaker 1>on it's let's just call in the FBI. That's not

1:27:47.080 --> 1:27:49.440
<v Speaker 1>how it works. Okay, the FBI is not the superpolice,

1:27:49.439 --> 1:27:52.240
<v Speaker 1>and people need to stop pretending that they are. But

1:27:52.560 --> 1:27:56.080
<v Speaker 1>this is also what I think Joy read at MSNBC

1:27:56.280 --> 1:27:59.840
<v Speaker 1>when she said that her blog was hacked and that

1:28:00.360 --> 1:28:03.920
<v Speaker 1>homophobic language was used by somebody pretending to be her

1:28:04.720 --> 1:28:07.080
<v Speaker 1>ten years ago on her blog that nobody was reading.

1:28:08.400 --> 1:28:10.639
<v Speaker 1>But I don't think she actually followed the report the FBI,

1:28:11.120 --> 1:28:13.720
<v Speaker 1>So she was pretty sly. She said she wanted an

1:28:13.760 --> 1:28:16.120
<v Speaker 1>FBI investigation, but she didn't actually take it to that

1:28:16.200 --> 1:28:20.200
<v Speaker 1>next step. Just in Fairfax, Lieutenant Governor of Virginia, it's

1:28:20.240 --> 1:28:22.599
<v Speaker 1>got two women who have come forward on the record

1:28:23.040 --> 1:28:25.800
<v Speaker 1>to yes, that's right, credibly, that does not that's not

1:28:25.840 --> 1:28:29.920
<v Speaker 1>the same as saying proven but credibly accused him of

1:28:29.960 --> 1:28:35.160
<v Speaker 1>sexual assault. Fairfax went on on offense and then some

1:28:35.479 --> 1:28:38.559
<v Speaker 1>play clip one if we go backwards and we rushed

1:28:38.560 --> 1:28:43.679
<v Speaker 1>the judgment, and we allow for political lynchings without any

1:28:43.760 --> 1:28:46.960
<v Speaker 1>due process, any facts, that the evidence being heard, then

1:28:47.000 --> 1:28:48.800
<v Speaker 1>I think we do a disservice to this very body

1:28:48.840 --> 1:28:52.040
<v Speaker 1>in which we all serve. And I want to stand

1:28:52.120 --> 1:28:56.200
<v Speaker 1>in this moment in the truth, not only which has

1:28:56.240 --> 1:29:00.960
<v Speaker 1>tested my constitution personally, but it's testing the constitution of

1:29:01.040 --> 1:29:04.680
<v Speaker 1>the Comwealth of Virginia and of the United States of America.

1:29:04.800 --> 1:29:08.720
<v Speaker 1>Now I'm I'm a little torn in two directions on

1:29:08.760 --> 1:29:13.280
<v Speaker 1>this issue of Fairfax. And this is an issue really

1:29:13.280 --> 1:29:15.680
<v Speaker 1>for the Democrats more. But just let's understand first and

1:29:15.760 --> 1:29:18.800
<v Speaker 1>foremost that you have three politicians, with two of them

1:29:18.800 --> 1:29:21.600
<v Speaker 1>admitting misconduct that was racist in their past. Whether you

1:29:21.640 --> 1:29:24.080
<v Speaker 1>think they should resign for that or not. But the

1:29:24.120 --> 1:29:27.320
<v Speaker 1>only guy that as of a week ago, looked like

1:29:27.360 --> 1:29:29.560
<v Speaker 1>he might be forced to resign they were going to

1:29:29.600 --> 1:29:32.720
<v Speaker 1>impeach him in the Virginia legislature was justin Fairfax, the

1:29:32.760 --> 1:29:36.000
<v Speaker 1>only African American of the three. That's a bad look

1:29:36.040 --> 1:29:38.679
<v Speaker 1>for the Democrats. So you can start with that, But

1:29:38.760 --> 1:29:42.720
<v Speaker 1>then you go into the dynamics at work here with

1:29:42.760 --> 1:29:48.920
<v Speaker 1>the Fairfax situation, and here's a guy who you know,

1:29:49.680 --> 1:29:53.599
<v Speaker 1>I look, I find his accusers credible. I can't say

1:29:53.640 --> 1:29:55.679
<v Speaker 1>they haven't proven it beyond a reasonable doubt a court

1:29:55.720 --> 1:29:58.559
<v Speaker 1>of law, so there can't be any legal sanctions against

1:29:58.640 --> 1:30:02.000
<v Speaker 1>him yet. But it's sounds to me like these are

1:30:02.040 --> 1:30:05.080
<v Speaker 1>credible accusations. The problem, though, is that this is a

1:30:05.200 --> 1:30:07.560
<v Speaker 1>This is a classic I mean, both of his accusers

1:30:07.600 --> 1:30:11.840
<v Speaker 1>are in he said, she said situations now, unlike in

1:30:11.880 --> 1:30:17.120
<v Speaker 1>the Kavanaugh. In the Kavanaugh circumstance, there is an admitted

1:30:17.800 --> 1:30:20.400
<v Speaker 1>There is admitted sexual conduct with both of these accusers.

1:30:20.400 --> 1:30:22.719
<v Speaker 1>He's just saying it was consensual. They're saying it wasn't.

1:30:23.800 --> 1:30:27.080
<v Speaker 1>But this isn't. I don't remember when, I don't remember

1:30:27.120 --> 1:30:30.200
<v Speaker 1>what year, I don't remember remember what house. I don't

1:30:30.200 --> 1:30:32.040
<v Speaker 1>have any facts, I don't have anything back this up.

1:30:32.280 --> 1:30:36.519
<v Speaker 1>Everything about this lines up from what we've seen so far.

1:30:37.040 --> 1:30:39.240
<v Speaker 1>And of course, the media buried these stories and didn't

1:30:39.240 --> 1:30:41.040
<v Speaker 1>want to The Washington Post didn't want to run with

1:30:41.040 --> 1:30:44.320
<v Speaker 1>this story because Fairfax's Democrat and he's an African American,

1:30:44.320 --> 1:30:47.360
<v Speaker 1>and they just weren't interested in in running with the story,

1:30:47.400 --> 1:30:49.880
<v Speaker 1>even though based on the Kavanaugh standard, they would have.

1:30:50.960 --> 1:30:54.599
<v Speaker 1>But I find his accusers credible, But I'm also somebody

1:30:54.840 --> 1:30:59.560
<v Speaker 1>who wants there to be due process, and so my

1:30:59.720 --> 1:31:02.720
<v Speaker 1>cicism of this is, how do we adjudicate in an

1:31:02.800 --> 1:31:09.120
<v Speaker 1>era of sexual assault allegations that have rocked and taken

1:31:09.200 --> 1:31:12.720
<v Speaker 1>down some very powerful people, how do we adjudicate it?

1:31:12.760 --> 1:31:14.280
<v Speaker 1>I mean, if you are a public figure and you're

1:31:14.280 --> 1:31:16.919
<v Speaker 1>accused by somebody of sexual assault, are you just supposed

1:31:16.960 --> 1:31:19.880
<v Speaker 1>to step down? I think the answer has to be no.

1:31:20.160 --> 1:31:23.200
<v Speaker 1>I think there has to be some process. There has

1:31:23.240 --> 1:31:26.640
<v Speaker 1>to be some due process for somebody, like justin Fairfax.

1:31:26.760 --> 1:31:29.160
<v Speaker 1>So there is. There is this part of it. It It

1:31:29.240 --> 1:31:31.840
<v Speaker 1>feels like the guy, as much as I look, I

1:31:32.479 --> 1:31:34.920
<v Speaker 1>believe the women who are accusing him, and it's not

1:31:34.960 --> 1:31:39.000
<v Speaker 1>just because of politics or anything like that. I the stories,

1:31:39.360 --> 1:31:41.840
<v Speaker 1>it all lines up, and the way this guy spoke

1:31:41.880 --> 1:31:44.919
<v Speaker 1>about those women when they accused him, as was initially reported.

1:31:44.920 --> 1:31:46.920
<v Speaker 1>It's just I believe it. That's not the same thing

1:31:46.920 --> 1:31:50.000
<v Speaker 1>as saying it's proven. Though I can't say they've proven anything.

1:31:50.400 --> 1:31:53.800
<v Speaker 1>They could in fact be settling scores against him. This

1:31:53.920 --> 1:31:55.800
<v Speaker 1>could be some kind of a personal vendetta, and I

1:31:56.120 --> 1:31:58.240
<v Speaker 1>cannot rule that out. That's why I believe in a process.

1:31:59.000 --> 1:32:01.320
<v Speaker 1>The other part of me, or the other part of

1:32:01.320 --> 1:32:04.040
<v Speaker 1>this discussion, though that I think we need to just

1:32:04.360 --> 1:32:07.520
<v Speaker 1>keep in mind at some level is that if Fairfax

1:32:07.640 --> 1:32:12.479
<v Speaker 1>was a Republican and these allegations were made, you would

1:32:12.560 --> 1:32:17.240
<v Speaker 1>see NonStop coverage. I mean, MSNBC would probably have a

1:32:17.920 --> 1:32:20.640
<v Speaker 1>timer in the bottom of the screen for all of

1:32:20.680 --> 1:32:26.320
<v Speaker 1>their segments, you know, time elapse since Fairfax allegations without

1:32:26.320 --> 1:32:29.479
<v Speaker 1>a resignation. I mean, they would put so much pressure

1:32:29.800 --> 1:32:31.920
<v Speaker 1>and so much heat on a Republican to resign in

1:32:31.960 --> 1:32:36.200
<v Speaker 1>these circumstances. Now, that doesn't make it right for us

1:32:36.240 --> 1:32:40.479
<v Speaker 1>to do the same thing, but I do think that

1:32:40.640 --> 1:32:44.280
<v Speaker 1>it's it's noteworthy that this double standard now is something

1:32:44.320 --> 1:32:47.840
<v Speaker 1>that we're kind of accepting because we have principles, because

1:32:47.880 --> 1:32:51.120
<v Speaker 1>we have scruples on the right about due process, and

1:32:51.680 --> 1:32:53.960
<v Speaker 1>we don't get caught up in the same degree of

1:32:54.320 --> 1:32:57.120
<v Speaker 1>hysterics around sexual assault allegations and all the rest of it.

1:32:57.240 --> 1:33:03.240
<v Speaker 1>Because of all of that, we are vulnerable in a

1:33:03.280 --> 1:33:07.000
<v Speaker 1>way that democrats are not. So, even in a case

1:33:07.080 --> 1:33:09.920
<v Speaker 1>like this where the allegations are very credible, I will

1:33:09.960 --> 1:33:13.040
<v Speaker 1>say that democrats deserve some degree of due process. They

1:33:13.040 --> 1:33:16.240
<v Speaker 1>will not respond in kind. They do not respond to

1:33:16.280 --> 1:33:20.000
<v Speaker 1>my good faith with good faith of their own. They

1:33:20.080 --> 1:33:22.880
<v Speaker 1>like the double standard and are acting to maintain it.

1:33:23.080 --> 1:33:26.799
<v Speaker 1>And the media silence around Fairfax is just more evidence

1:33:26.800 --> 1:33:28.839
<v Speaker 1>of this. So I'm going to continue to follow this story,

1:33:28.880 --> 1:33:31.320
<v Speaker 1>but this is a complicated one. I don't think he's

1:33:31.320 --> 1:33:32.960
<v Speaker 1>going to step down, by the way, I don't think

1:33:32.960 --> 1:33:38.800
<v Speaker 1>it's going to happen. It sounds like the plot of

1:33:39.320 --> 1:33:44.479
<v Speaker 1>a not particularly creative movie, but it apparently happened. There

1:33:44.680 --> 1:33:53.679
<v Speaker 1>was an Amtrak train outside of Eugene, Oregon, on its

1:33:53.720 --> 1:33:57.880
<v Speaker 1>way to Los Angeles, with two hundred people on board,

1:33:58.400 --> 1:34:03.440
<v Speaker 1>and it got stuck in deep snow for over thirty

1:34:03.720 --> 1:34:08.760
<v Speaker 1>six hours. By the way, this definitely could be a

1:34:08.880 --> 1:34:11.880
<v Speaker 1>plot of a movie or a short or something like that,

1:34:13.040 --> 1:34:15.240
<v Speaker 1>because they had all this snow and people got stuck

1:34:15.280 --> 1:34:17.280
<v Speaker 1>for thirty six hours. And I got to tell you

1:34:17.320 --> 1:34:20.400
<v Speaker 1>first of all the stories here, it's pretty cute. Turns

1:34:20.400 --> 1:34:24.880
<v Speaker 1>out that people were telling stories and playing cards and

1:34:24.960 --> 1:34:30.639
<v Speaker 1>there was quote a giant coomb Baya party. They had

1:34:30.760 --> 1:34:33.559
<v Speaker 1>heat and power and food on the train, so they

1:34:33.560 --> 1:34:37.080
<v Speaker 1>weren't cold and they weren't hungry, and you know, everything

1:34:37.160 --> 1:34:39.400
<v Speaker 1>was they could look at their iPads and everything else,

1:34:40.040 --> 1:34:43.920
<v Speaker 1>and they basically had a big snow party or like

1:34:43.960 --> 1:34:48.120
<v Speaker 1>a snow day party on this train with people dancing

1:34:48.160 --> 1:34:53.560
<v Speaker 1>in the aisles playing music. Some guy busted out his ukulele.

1:34:54.000 --> 1:34:57.519
<v Speaker 1>Just happened to have a ukulele and played it for

1:34:57.600 --> 1:35:02.000
<v Speaker 1>the amusement of his fellow passengers. You had twenty students

1:35:02.280 --> 1:35:06.160
<v Speaker 1>from Japan who just happened to be on this train.

1:35:06.439 --> 1:35:08.840
<v Speaker 1>They must have had quite a little adventure, as well

1:35:08.880 --> 1:35:12.559
<v Speaker 1>as a few dozen other college students. So you know,

1:35:12.560 --> 1:35:14.760
<v Speaker 1>it's a nice story, and I think I've got an

1:35:14.800 --> 1:35:19.080
<v Speaker 1>idea for a pretty formulaic movie plot or something, or

1:35:19.080 --> 1:35:21.840
<v Speaker 1>at least episode of a TV show. Stuck on the

1:35:21.880 --> 1:35:25.080
<v Speaker 1>Amtrak train in the snow for thirty six hours. Although

1:35:25.120 --> 1:35:28.240
<v Speaker 1>I can tell you this even with power and heat

1:35:28.760 --> 1:35:34.280
<v Speaker 1>and all that stuff. The infamous Acella Corridor which connects

1:35:35.320 --> 1:35:39.320
<v Speaker 1>New York City and DC and Boston right, so it

1:35:39.360 --> 1:35:42.720
<v Speaker 1>goes from Boston south through New York, through Philadelphia and

1:35:43.240 --> 1:35:46.920
<v Speaker 1>ends in DC. If you had an incident where the

1:35:46.960 --> 1:35:51.400
<v Speaker 1>Ascella train was stuck for thirty six hours and people

1:35:51.439 --> 1:35:53.680
<v Speaker 1>weren't able to get off of it, let me tell

1:35:53.720 --> 1:35:58.479
<v Speaker 1>you something. The Ascella train after about I was gonna

1:35:58.479 --> 1:36:02.799
<v Speaker 1>say three hours would turn into some kind of scene

1:36:02.880 --> 1:36:05.920
<v Speaker 1>from like mad Max with a walking dead, Like everybody

1:36:05.960 --> 1:36:09.040
<v Speaker 1>on that train thinks that they've got really important things

1:36:09.040 --> 1:36:12.559
<v Speaker 1>to do and they need to get moving or right away.

1:36:12.760 --> 1:36:15.719
<v Speaker 1>So the Ascella train is going to be a slightly

1:36:15.720 --> 1:36:17.920
<v Speaker 1>different vibe. I don't think it would have turned into

1:36:17.920 --> 1:36:20.519
<v Speaker 1>a Kumbaya party. And I gotta tell you whatever. I

1:36:20.560 --> 1:36:22.400
<v Speaker 1>have to ride the Ascella fair amount because I go

1:36:22.439 --> 1:36:26.160
<v Speaker 1>back and forth between New York and DC. And you

1:36:26.280 --> 1:36:29.559
<v Speaker 1>gotta pay attention because there's always other journalists on that train.

1:36:30.120 --> 1:36:32.320
<v Speaker 1>So if you're on the phone, as many of you

1:36:32.360 --> 1:36:35.560
<v Speaker 1>know on an Amtrak train and you're like, hey, Bobert's

1:36:35.640 --> 1:36:38.160
<v Speaker 1>going on, what's the ladies with the deal? Or we're

1:36:38.160 --> 1:36:40.880
<v Speaker 1>getting you know, whenever you're talking, everybody on that train

1:36:40.920 --> 1:36:43.840
<v Speaker 1>can pretty much hear you, so you really have to

1:36:43.880 --> 1:36:46.760
<v Speaker 1>pay attention to it. And the food on Amtrak. I

1:36:46.920 --> 1:36:51.040
<v Speaker 1>still don't understand how the food is so bad. They've

1:36:51.080 --> 1:36:54.960
<v Speaker 1>improved some of the non perishables, like at least they

1:36:54.960 --> 1:36:59.160
<v Speaker 1>have better granola bars and potato chips available now, But

1:36:59.360 --> 1:37:02.240
<v Speaker 1>how hard would it be in an era of food

1:37:02.280 --> 1:37:05.160
<v Speaker 1>trucks that show up all over the place and turn

1:37:05.200 --> 1:37:08.080
<v Speaker 1>out gourmet cuisine. How hard would it be to have

1:37:08.200 --> 1:37:12.400
<v Speaker 1>Amtrak food service serve stuff that was slightly above edible.

1:37:13.240 --> 1:37:16.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't think it's really asking too much. I don't

1:37:16.240 --> 1:37:19.720
<v Speaker 1>think it should be considered impossible for us to get

1:37:19.760 --> 1:37:22.599
<v Speaker 1>to a point where Amtrak would be able to serve

1:37:23.280 --> 1:37:26.200
<v Speaker 1>decent food. But I think that if you're stuck in

1:37:26.280 --> 1:37:30.280
<v Speaker 1>snowbanks and outside of Oregon and I guess, I guess

1:37:30.280 --> 1:37:33.400
<v Speaker 1>a rural area, whatever food they give you, I bet

1:37:33.439 --> 1:37:37.240
<v Speaker 1>that frozen HOGI that they've been holding onto in the

1:37:37.280 --> 1:37:41.400
<v Speaker 1>Amtrak food cart for last five or six years, that

1:37:41.560 --> 1:37:44.920
<v Speaker 1>it tasted pretty darn good when it got microwaved. But

1:37:45.320 --> 1:37:48.040
<v Speaker 1>it was a nice little story, and it just reminded

1:37:48.080 --> 1:37:51.360
<v Speaker 1>me of how train travel is the most for me,

1:37:52.040 --> 1:37:56.400
<v Speaker 1>the most preferable and civilized way to get from city

1:37:56.400 --> 1:37:58.920
<v Speaker 1>to city and the East Coast. But that's only because

1:37:58.920 --> 1:38:01.559
<v Speaker 1>we all assume we're not hit any traffic or any problems.

1:38:02.040 --> 1:38:05.599
<v Speaker 1>The moment things start to go bad, people on that train,

1:38:05.680 --> 1:38:08.720
<v Speaker 1>you can just feel the Ascella crew. I don't mean

1:38:08.760 --> 1:38:11.200
<v Speaker 1>that the actual crew, I mean the people who ride

1:38:11.240 --> 1:38:15.599
<v Speaker 1>the Acella. Their blood pressure collectively rises because they're all

1:38:15.640 --> 1:38:19.400
<v Speaker 1>so important and have so much stuff to do. It

1:38:19.520 --> 1:38:23.439
<v Speaker 1>starts to feel very very different vibe. So anyway, nice

1:38:23.439 --> 1:38:25.320
<v Speaker 1>little story out of Oregon. I know we're on a

1:38:25.360 --> 1:38:28.840
<v Speaker 1>great station in Oregon. Shield's hide all of you up

1:38:28.840 --> 1:38:31.320
<v Speaker 1>in the Northwest who listen to the show. We have

1:38:31.680 --> 1:38:39.000
<v Speaker 1>a fantastic role call up. Next show ain't over yet, folks,

1:38:44.160 --> 1:38:47.840
<v Speaker 1>It's time for roll call. I just want to mind

1:38:47.880 --> 1:38:51.839
<v Speaker 1>everybody that I will be at Seepack, the Conservative Political

1:38:52.040 --> 1:38:59.000
<v Speaker 1>Action Conference, this Friday. I will be there in the morning,

1:38:59.200 --> 1:39:01.240
<v Speaker 1>and that's the thing you probably want to see. It'll

1:39:01.240 --> 1:39:05.040
<v Speaker 1>be on the main stage a debate over Syria and

1:39:05.200 --> 1:39:09.200
<v Speaker 1>the Trump administration's decision making in Syria. I'll also be

1:39:09.280 --> 1:39:13.200
<v Speaker 1>moderating a panel on cyber warfare in the evening, but

1:39:13.280 --> 1:39:16.160
<v Speaker 1>I think the Syria thing is the thing that's going

1:39:16.240 --> 1:39:19.519
<v Speaker 1>to be the most exciting one. So definitely, if you're

1:39:19.560 --> 1:39:22.759
<v Speaker 1>going to be in the Washington DC area, although technically

1:39:22.840 --> 1:39:27.560
<v Speaker 1>the conference is in Maryland, it's at the Gaylord Convention

1:39:27.640 --> 1:39:30.960
<v Speaker 1>Center in Maryland, with just south of Washington, d C.

1:39:32.120 --> 1:39:34.240
<v Speaker 1>You should definitely come by. And if you see me

1:39:34.320 --> 1:39:36.840
<v Speaker 1>walking the grounds at Seapack, please come up say hi.

1:39:37.880 --> 1:39:40.920
<v Speaker 1>As many members of the team as I can give

1:39:41.000 --> 1:39:43.040
<v Speaker 1>high fives to chat up a little bit get to

1:39:43.080 --> 1:39:47.599
<v Speaker 1>meet the better. So that's this Friday Seapack. I'm hoping

1:39:47.680 --> 1:39:51.080
<v Speaker 1>some young Team Bucks, some Team Buck campus shows up.

1:39:51.080 --> 1:39:54.599
<v Speaker 1>This will be my first year as a media person

1:39:54.680 --> 1:39:58.320
<v Speaker 1>at sea Pack. I went to Seapack as a just

1:39:58.720 --> 1:40:00.840
<v Speaker 1>a person going to see I act to check it out.

1:40:01.760 --> 1:40:04.800
<v Speaker 1>Maybe in two thousand and six or two thousand and seven,

1:40:04.840 --> 1:40:07.479
<v Speaker 1>so it's been over a decade. I was a young

1:40:07.600 --> 1:40:11.439
<v Speaker 1>CIA officer and I just went to patrol the grounds

1:40:11.439 --> 1:40:13.559
<v Speaker 1>at Sepack and see what was going on. So I'll

1:40:13.600 --> 1:40:17.280
<v Speaker 1>be there this year in my capacity as a commentator,

1:40:17.479 --> 1:40:22.120
<v Speaker 1>radio host, all that good stuff. Let's get to your

1:40:22.160 --> 1:40:25.600
<v Speaker 1>roll call thoughts, my friends. Robin first up, So the

1:40:25.640 --> 1:40:30.200
<v Speaker 1>twelve week family leave should it be a federal mandate

1:40:30.560 --> 1:40:36.360
<v Speaker 1>or law? No? Is it beneficial for families? Absolutely? I

1:40:36.479 --> 1:40:39.120
<v Speaker 1>realize you have not had a child or actually given birth.

1:40:39.200 --> 1:40:42.360
<v Speaker 1>It is hard work. It is like your insides running

1:40:42.400 --> 1:40:44.720
<v Speaker 1>a marathon. And then you aren't permitted to sleep, eat,

1:40:44.800 --> 1:40:48.360
<v Speaker 1>or bathe regularly for days. The mother isn't even released

1:40:48.400 --> 1:40:50.760
<v Speaker 1>by medical professionals to drive for four to six weeks,

1:40:50.760 --> 1:40:53.639
<v Speaker 1>depending on the method of delivery. Six weeks is essential.

1:40:53.840 --> 1:40:56.559
<v Speaker 1>Eight weeks is enough to establish a decent milk supply

1:40:56.640 --> 1:41:01.240
<v Speaker 1>and feeding schedule. Twelve weeks is emotionally health Robin. I

1:41:01.360 --> 1:41:04.960
<v Speaker 1>have zero insider expertise on this matter, as I am

1:41:05.000 --> 1:41:07.960
<v Speaker 1>neither a woman who has given birth, nor even a

1:41:08.000 --> 1:41:10.800
<v Speaker 1>father of a child and married to a woman who

1:41:10.840 --> 1:41:13.840
<v Speaker 1>has therefore given birth. So I defer to all of

1:41:13.880 --> 1:41:17.000
<v Speaker 1>your knowledge and expertise on this. But I think you

1:41:17.000 --> 1:41:20.439
<v Speaker 1>you understand My point is not that family leave isn't good.

1:41:20.920 --> 1:41:25.320
<v Speaker 1>It's that mandatory twelve weeks of family leave is going

1:41:25.360 --> 1:41:27.280
<v Speaker 1>to be If that's a federal mandate, that's going to

1:41:27.360 --> 1:41:31.400
<v Speaker 1>be a problem for some businesses. It just is. And

1:41:31.479 --> 1:41:34.200
<v Speaker 1>if it's a federal mandate, dentdal also be concerns about

1:41:34.960 --> 1:41:39.479
<v Speaker 1>hiring women for some small businesses. So you know, there's nothing.

1:41:40.000 --> 1:41:42.320
<v Speaker 1>Nothing in this world is free or easy, my friends,

1:41:42.320 --> 1:41:47.720
<v Speaker 1>There's trade offs all over the place. Rita Right's well, Buck,

1:41:47.760 --> 1:41:50.040
<v Speaker 1>we knew it'll be a difficult year watching dams with

1:41:50.080 --> 1:41:52.599
<v Speaker 1>a bit of power, but it's just begun and they've

1:41:52.600 --> 1:41:55.799
<v Speaker 1>set a new low. I cannot decide if the GOP

1:41:55.960 --> 1:41:58.640
<v Speaker 1>planned it or if they stumbled onto it blindly. But

1:41:58.680 --> 1:42:01.400
<v Speaker 1>between McConnell and sam As, the Dems have been forced

1:42:01.400 --> 1:42:05.559
<v Speaker 1>to expose their creepy little underbellies. All their talking points

1:42:05.600 --> 1:42:08.800
<v Speaker 1>have been reduced to simple yammering if only one child

1:42:08.920 --> 1:42:12.120
<v Speaker 1>is saved, or women's health or separating children, if the

1:42:12.200 --> 1:42:15.280
<v Speaker 1>GOP is smart and ruthless enough to use this AMMO

1:42:15.520 --> 1:42:22.360
<v Speaker 1>shields high. Yeah, Rita's it's appalling and it's something that

1:42:22.400 --> 1:42:26.439
<v Speaker 1>we should not just skip past quickly that Democrats are

1:42:26.560 --> 1:42:34.439
<v Speaker 1>so willing, so very willing to either run interference for,

1:42:34.720 --> 1:42:38.920
<v Speaker 1>put up a smokescreen for, or just openly advocate for infanticide,

1:42:38.920 --> 1:42:41.599
<v Speaker 1>which is what they're doing. They can pretend that it's

1:42:41.600 --> 1:42:44.200
<v Speaker 1>already in the law, but it's not. And if it

1:42:44.240 --> 1:42:46.880
<v Speaker 1>we're already in the law, then why not just pass

1:42:47.000 --> 1:42:49.320
<v Speaker 1>this law to affirm the law already on the books.

1:42:50.280 --> 1:42:54.679
<v Speaker 1>But they know that it will force some very uncomfortable questions,

1:42:54.680 --> 1:42:57.040
<v Speaker 1>as we've been discussing here on the show, if in

1:42:57.120 --> 1:43:02.160
<v Speaker 1>fact there was in the law criminal culpability for the

1:43:02.360 --> 1:43:07.040
<v Speaker 1>destruction of a born fetus also known as a baby.

1:43:07.479 --> 1:43:10.160
<v Speaker 1>And that is why the left. Look, the Left has

1:43:10.200 --> 1:43:13.240
<v Speaker 1>embraced evil and destruction here when it comes to the

1:43:13.240 --> 1:43:16.559
<v Speaker 1>issue of life, and nobody ever wants to believe that

1:43:16.600 --> 1:43:20.200
<v Speaker 1>about themselves, even bad people like to think that there's

1:43:20.240 --> 1:43:25.320
<v Speaker 1>some explanation, there's some justification for their badness, and that's

1:43:25.360 --> 1:43:28.360
<v Speaker 1>what we see happening here with many other proponents of

1:43:28.360 --> 1:43:31.760
<v Speaker 1>his policy on the left. Stephen writes, Buck, your Trey

1:43:31.800 --> 1:43:34.680
<v Speaker 1>Gaudy isn't too bad. Sounds a little bit like the

1:43:34.760 --> 1:43:36.960
<v Speaker 1>chef from the Muppets. You need to go a little

1:43:37.000 --> 1:43:40.679
<v Speaker 1>more gomer Pile, keep up the good workshields high world. Stephen,

1:43:40.800 --> 1:43:44.120
<v Speaker 1>thank you very much for telling me this thing over here.

1:43:44.200 --> 1:43:48.560
<v Speaker 1>The Trey garrity sounds Cadillock Trey gawty. You know, I

1:43:49.080 --> 1:43:51.280
<v Speaker 1>think my Trey Gaudy's kind of close. Guys. I know

1:43:51.640 --> 1:43:53.240
<v Speaker 1>a lot of you in the South say my Trey

1:43:53.320 --> 1:43:57.000
<v Speaker 1>Gauty is terrible, and I respect that, but it's not.

1:43:57.280 --> 1:44:00.719
<v Speaker 1>It's not that far off, all right, it's not. You know, Burke,

1:44:00.840 --> 1:44:03.600
<v Speaker 1>maybe if you spend more time with Trey on the

1:44:03.720 --> 1:44:08.000
<v Speaker 1>television set, you know, doing the green room discussion, having

1:44:08.040 --> 1:44:11.120
<v Speaker 1>a little chit chat. Hen, come on, it sounds a

1:44:11.160 --> 1:44:14.080
<v Speaker 1>little bit. Don't make me start playing Trey Goudy sound bites.

1:44:14.560 --> 1:44:18.680
<v Speaker 1>Know the Congress has the overstart capa build. Come on,

1:44:19.240 --> 1:44:21.439
<v Speaker 1>it's my tray, is not you know what I don't have,

1:44:22.080 --> 1:44:24.640
<v Speaker 1>and I realize that it's a real shortcoming in my

1:44:25.400 --> 1:44:30.120
<v Speaker 1>impersonation repertoire. I don't have a Trump, and I hear

1:44:30.240 --> 1:44:33.120
<v Speaker 1>so many people do bad Trump impressions, and I don't

1:44:33.120 --> 1:44:36.360
<v Speaker 1>want to be yet another bad Trump impression, because you

1:44:36.520 --> 1:44:38.679
<v Speaker 1>really have to work on your Trump and it has

1:44:38.680 --> 1:44:41.360
<v Speaker 1>to be good or else it's it's like a Scottish accent.

1:44:41.840 --> 1:44:43.920
<v Speaker 1>You gotta really think about it and work on it,

1:44:44.000 --> 1:44:47.680
<v Speaker 1>or else you're just hell id if you have what

1:44:47.960 --> 1:44:51.519
<v Speaker 1>my body, Yeah, I think I'm sick. Sick. Come you know,

1:44:52.240 --> 1:44:54.519
<v Speaker 1>you just end up copying Mike Myers from So I

1:44:54.520 --> 1:44:56.240
<v Speaker 1>Married an Axe Murder, which is actually not a bad

1:44:56.240 --> 1:44:59.519
<v Speaker 1>place to start. But you need to work on your

1:44:59.560 --> 1:45:02.280
<v Speaker 1>Scottish accent before you could throw Scottish accent out there.

1:45:03.360 --> 1:45:05.280
<v Speaker 1>And some of you are probably like Buck, whatever happened

1:45:05.280 --> 1:45:08.120
<v Speaker 1>to your character Angus McManus, I haven't forgot. Angus isn't

1:45:08.120 --> 1:45:10.759
<v Speaker 1>dead and buried. I just don't do as many characters

1:45:10.760 --> 1:45:12.320
<v Speaker 1>on this show because I feel like there's a national

1:45:12.400 --> 1:45:15.800
<v Speaker 1>radio audience we got, you know, hundreds of thousands of

1:45:15.840 --> 1:45:18.479
<v Speaker 1>people listening the show coast to coast. I don't want

1:45:18.479 --> 1:45:20.680
<v Speaker 1>to you know, I feel like I only have so

1:45:20.760 --> 1:45:23.400
<v Speaker 1>much time, and I don't know, maybe I'm talking myself

1:45:23.439 --> 1:45:26.519
<v Speaker 1>into doing some more, some more skits and characters and things.

1:45:26.520 --> 1:45:28.559
<v Speaker 1>Probably a third you know, third hour or the show.

1:45:28.640 --> 1:45:30.280
<v Speaker 1>That's when I tend to loosen it up a little bit,

1:45:30.680 --> 1:45:32.720
<v Speaker 1>change up the topics a bit. You'll still get news

1:45:32.840 --> 1:45:35.880
<v Speaker 1>the day and deep political analysis in the front half

1:45:35.880 --> 1:45:37.920
<v Speaker 1>of the show, but maybe back of the show, maybe

1:45:38.000 --> 1:45:41.120
<v Speaker 1>back in the Schryl Bargners from Room for Trade gallery

1:45:41.160 --> 1:45:45.559
<v Speaker 1>to shore. We're up and maybe right, maybe, hey, your

1:45:45.640 --> 1:45:50.160
<v Speaker 1>trade gallity is terrible. Sixtum get crip lad. Yeah, I know,

1:45:50.880 --> 1:45:57.080
<v Speaker 1>I know. Kristen rights. Yes, we definitely can't agree. It

1:45:57.080 --> 1:46:01.200
<v Speaker 1>should be Kristen and spelled within e. Well, you're darn right,

1:46:01.360 --> 1:46:05.519
<v Speaker 1>Kristen couldn't agree with you more. Oh, oh, I see

1:46:05.600 --> 1:46:11.040
<v Speaker 1>something TJ. Right, Buck, I'm a little disappointed he didn't

1:46:11.040 --> 1:46:13.240
<v Speaker 1>get to sit in on the Governor Colorado interview on

1:46:13.360 --> 1:46:17.160
<v Speaker 1>Rising this morning. The fact that they are potentially nullifying

1:46:17.240 --> 1:46:19.840
<v Speaker 1>their electoral College votes for the majority vote of the

1:46:19.840 --> 1:46:23.920
<v Speaker 1>country is a crying shame. To be consistent, he should

1:46:23.960 --> 1:46:26.479
<v Speaker 1>just hand his governorship over to President Trump, since he

1:46:26.520 --> 1:46:29.519
<v Speaker 1>clearly does not believe in his own states sovereignty and

1:46:29.560 --> 1:46:31.920
<v Speaker 1>its ability to govern and represent itself as part of

1:46:31.920 --> 1:46:35.559
<v Speaker 1>this union. It's not surprising considering the lack of historical

1:46:35.600 --> 1:46:37.720
<v Speaker 1>knowledge in this country of the inability by the left

1:46:37.720 --> 1:46:41.240
<v Speaker 1>to understand the significance of the electoral college and the

1:46:41.280 --> 1:46:42.880
<v Speaker 1>fact that this country is a collection of states that

1:46:42.920 --> 1:46:45.479
<v Speaker 1>represents himselves. But when a governor of one of those

1:46:45.479 --> 1:46:50.599
<v Speaker 1>states cannot comprehend that fact, well, that is truly concerning TJ.

1:46:50.960 --> 1:46:53.280
<v Speaker 1>Just so you know, I didn't duck the interview or

1:46:53.280 --> 1:46:55.400
<v Speaker 1>anything like that. I just wasn't able to do it.

1:46:55.720 --> 1:46:59.120
<v Speaker 1>There was a scheduling conflict. So sometimes on Rising you

1:46:59.240 --> 1:47:02.240
<v Speaker 1>just get my co host on an interview, and other

1:47:02.240 --> 1:47:05.360
<v Speaker 1>times it's just me in an interview because we can't

1:47:05.360 --> 1:47:07.479
<v Speaker 1>make the timing work to get to get the interview

1:47:07.760 --> 1:47:13.439
<v Speaker 1>or interviewee rather there when we're both there. Harry rights,

1:47:13.520 --> 1:47:16.240
<v Speaker 1>Hey Buck, Leftists should be careful what they ask for.

1:47:16.760 --> 1:47:20.320
<v Speaker 1>Wouldn't giving wouldn't giving anyone who wants reparations a one

1:47:20.360 --> 1:47:24.559
<v Speaker 1>way ticket out of this country be fulfilling in my memory,

1:47:24.640 --> 1:47:29.920
<v Speaker 1>that's how certain countries reform, you know, Harry, you know

1:47:30.360 --> 1:47:35.120
<v Speaker 1>it's it's a reparations is a concept that people will

1:47:35.160 --> 1:47:39.520
<v Speaker 1>push for. UM. It's a concept that people will discuss.

1:47:39.760 --> 1:47:45.680
<v Speaker 1>They generally speaking don't have UM, they don't have specifics

1:47:45.680 --> 1:47:48.519
<v Speaker 1>in mind, but it does serve the purposes of the

1:47:48.600 --> 1:47:54.000
<v Speaker 1>left of some degree of just stoking more identity politics.

1:47:54.040 --> 1:47:58.400
<v Speaker 1>As we know, that's very, very important to the left.

1:47:59.160 --> 1:48:02.920
<v Speaker 1>Patrick right, it's take the Pain. It's Platoon. She'll tie

1:48:03.040 --> 1:48:09.120
<v Speaker 1>Oss Sully aka Patrick Patrick. You got it, my friend,

1:48:09.200 --> 1:48:13.320
<v Speaker 1>Take the Pain. That's when Tom Berenger, who's playing Barnes

1:48:13.400 --> 1:48:16.360
<v Speaker 1>in Platoon, covers the guy's mouth after he's been wounded.

1:48:17.120 --> 1:48:19.559
<v Speaker 1>You know, I think Tom Berenger's the best part of

1:48:19.560 --> 1:48:22.200
<v Speaker 1>that movie. To be honest with you, I think Platoon

1:48:22.920 --> 1:48:26.720
<v Speaker 1>for me, in retrospect, it's pretty overrated movie. I did

1:48:26.800 --> 1:48:28.720
<v Speaker 1>not think it's the masterpiece that a lot of people

1:48:28.920 --> 1:48:32.200
<v Speaker 1>seem to think it is. But it has some good

1:48:32.400 --> 1:48:37.680
<v Speaker 1>some good sequences, and Barnes is certainly one of the standouts.

1:48:38.360 --> 1:48:42.240
<v Speaker 1>David writes, the irony of the left is that Horey

1:48:42.360 --> 1:48:45.599
<v Speaker 1>Ramos got his own medicine today by the government government

1:48:45.680 --> 1:48:49.120
<v Speaker 1>socialist policies of Venezuela, the same policies he wants here

1:48:49.120 --> 1:48:52.439
<v Speaker 1>in the US. I just wish they had thrown away

1:48:52.479 --> 1:48:56.200
<v Speaker 1>the key. Well, you know, David Jore Ramos is, I

1:48:56.240 --> 1:48:59.599
<v Speaker 1>understand it as a US citizen, So he's one of ours,

1:49:00.040 --> 1:49:02.680
<v Speaker 1>and you can't you can't take one of ours and

1:49:02.720 --> 1:49:04.560
<v Speaker 1>lock them up when they're being a journalist in the

1:49:04.600 --> 1:49:06.920
<v Speaker 1>four country. You know, we we got to take care

1:49:07.000 --> 1:49:10.120
<v Speaker 1>of our own, no matter what their politics are. We

1:49:10.120 --> 1:49:12.360
<v Speaker 1>don't have to take care of other people's according to

1:49:12.400 --> 1:49:14.920
<v Speaker 1>the law, but Democrats disagree with that. But we take

1:49:14.960 --> 1:49:17.560
<v Speaker 1>care of our own. And I believe Hory Ramas is

1:49:17.600 --> 1:49:20.960
<v Speaker 1>a US citizen, which means that he's he's one of ours,

1:49:21.120 --> 1:49:22.639
<v Speaker 1>and we got to go in there and get them

1:49:22.640 --> 1:49:26.120
<v Speaker 1>if we have to go, if need be, need be,

1:49:26.240 --> 1:49:28.080
<v Speaker 1>I'd I'd give the order myself to go in there

1:49:28.080 --> 1:49:33.160
<v Speaker 1>and get Ramos, get Ramos out. So the US citizen

1:49:33.280 --> 1:49:38.080
<v Speaker 1>is a US citizen. James right. The movie quote was

1:49:38.120 --> 1:49:43.320
<v Speaker 1>from Expendables, Jason Statham James, I don't think you're I

1:49:43.360 --> 1:49:45.879
<v Speaker 1>don't know if maybe I quoted the Expendables by accident,

1:49:45.920 --> 1:49:49.240
<v Speaker 1>but that's not the one that's uh, somebody else got it.

1:49:49.320 --> 1:49:52.000
<v Speaker 1>Take the Pain is from is from Platoon, although maybe

1:49:52.080 --> 1:49:57.559
<v Speaker 1>Jason Statham says it in the expendables as well. Paul

1:49:57.640 --> 1:50:00.920
<v Speaker 1>and Carmen, Bravo Bucks Spot today. On so many of

1:50:00.920 --> 1:50:03.599
<v Speaker 1>your comments, I wouldn't know where to begin. Your delivery.

1:50:03.640 --> 1:50:06.240
<v Speaker 1>Many times make me smile, sometimes makes me laugh, and

1:50:06.320 --> 1:50:08.639
<v Speaker 1>other times make me say out loud, right on, keep

1:50:08.640 --> 1:50:10.599
<v Speaker 1>it going well, Paul and Carmen, thank you so much.

1:50:11.160 --> 1:50:12.760
<v Speaker 1>It means a lot to me that there are folks

1:50:12.800 --> 1:50:14.840
<v Speaker 1>out there that really appreciate the show that I'm putting

1:50:14.880 --> 1:50:17.920
<v Speaker 1>on every day and that it brings out these different

1:50:17.960 --> 1:50:20.679
<v Speaker 1>ideas and emotions. I mean, I'm hoping people get fired

1:50:20.760 --> 1:50:23.320
<v Speaker 1>up by this show, learn from this show, want to

1:50:23.360 --> 1:50:26.080
<v Speaker 1>share this show with their friends. That's why I put

1:50:26.080 --> 1:50:29.080
<v Speaker 1>everything I can into it every single day. Like I said, team,

1:50:29.120 --> 1:50:31.080
<v Speaker 1>if you're in the New York I'm sorry forget that

1:50:31.160 --> 1:50:35.200
<v Speaker 1>the DC area not New York Area DC area. This Thursday, Friday,

1:50:35.200 --> 1:50:37.479
<v Speaker 1>Saturday for SPAC, I will be there. Please come check

1:50:37.479 --> 1:50:46.160
<v Speaker 1>it out until tomorrow. Shield's High a RP is well known. Right,

1:50:46.200 --> 1:50:49.800
<v Speaker 1>it's a big organization for seniors. But guess what, Like

1:50:49.880 --> 1:50:53.439
<v Speaker 1>a lot of very big, well known organizations, it's very

1:50:53.520 --> 1:50:59.000
<v Speaker 1>left wing. Wants to support universal healthcare, probably wants support

1:50:59.200 --> 1:51:01.519
<v Speaker 1>all kinds of un virsual programs as a bit of

1:51:01.560 --> 1:51:04.960
<v Speaker 1>a Democrat socialist vibe to it. I got an idea,

1:51:05.120 --> 1:51:09.360
<v Speaker 1>how about AMAC instead. AMAK is the conservative alternative as

1:51:09.400 --> 1:51:13.519
<v Speaker 1>a seniors organization to AARP, and that's why I think

1:51:13.560 --> 1:51:16.920
<v Speaker 1>AMAK is the way to go for you. Over one

1:51:16.920 --> 1:51:19.559
<v Speaker 1>point five million Americans have already joined AMAC, and they're

1:51:19.560 --> 1:51:23.679
<v Speaker 1>getting great value like discounts on car insurance, hotels, roadside assistance.

1:51:23.680 --> 1:51:27.240
<v Speaker 1>But also they're part of an organization that supports conservative

1:51:27.320 --> 1:51:29.920
<v Speaker 1>values and is pushing for policies that will make this

1:51:30.000 --> 1:51:33.280
<v Speaker 1>country great. Stand with AMAC as they fight the good fight.
