WEBVTT - Democrats Vegas Royal Rumble 0:00:00.960 --> 0:00:14.720 You are entering the freedom hunt. It was a royal 0:00:14.800 --> 0:00:18.680 rumble amongst the Democrat candidates in Nevada last night. We'll 0:00:18.720 --> 0:00:22.040 break down all of the most important moments for you. Also, 0:00:22.079 --> 0:00:25.599 the Nevada caucuses are just a few days away. How 0:00:25.680 --> 0:00:29.560 is this Democrat primary shaken out? And how long is 0:00:29.680 --> 0:00:31.840 Roger Stone going to prison? We'll have that for you 0:00:31.880 --> 0:00:35.760 and much more coming up. This is the Buck Sexton Show, 0:00:36.080 --> 0:00:38.840 where the mission or mission is to decode what really 0:00:38.880 --> 0:00:46.320 matters with actionable intelligence, magnor mistake. You're a great American 0:00:46.400 --> 0:00:52.680 Again the Buck Sexton Show begins. Remember he's a great guy. 0:00:54.200 --> 0:01:05.880 No hell'scale for all educational opportunity. Wonderful country. We have 0:01:06.080 --> 0:01:08.400 the best known socialists in the country. Happens to be 0:01:08.480 --> 0:01:11.920 a millionaire with three houses. What I miss here, Well, 0:01:11.959 --> 0:01:15.959 you'll list and I work in Washington Housewash the first problem. 0:01:16.040 --> 0:01:18.360 Live in Burley to the house school. That's good And 0:01:18.520 --> 0:01:20.600 like thousands of both Ramontes, I do will have a 0:01:20.640 --> 0:01:23.360 sub account and forget me for that. Where is your home? 0:01:23.600 --> 0:01:27.240 Which tax? Which tax? Haven? New York, New York City? 0:01:27.400 --> 0:01:29.840 Thank you very much, And I pay all my taxes 0:01:30.240 --> 0:01:32.479 and I'm happy to do it. Because I get something 0:01:32.560 --> 0:01:36.600 for it. New York City getting a shout out last night. 0:01:37.000 --> 0:01:39.760 Welcome to the Buck Sexton Show, everybody, thank you so 0:01:39.920 --> 0:01:45.080 much for being here. Man. The debate, the debate was spicy. 0:01:45.319 --> 0:01:49.360 It was a spicy meat the ball. I enjoyed it. 0:01:49.760 --> 0:01:52.520 I enjoyed it that and I wasn't expecting to. So 0:01:52.680 --> 0:01:54.600 you gotta give the Democrats credit. At least they put 0:01:54.640 --> 0:01:57.120 on a show. And I think the ABC News anchors, 0:01:57.120 --> 0:01:59.280 I will tell you I find Lester hole to be 0:02:00.040 --> 0:02:02.720 and I mean this as a high compliment among the 0:02:02.920 --> 0:02:07.000 very least annoying lib ankers in all of the news business. 0:02:07.120 --> 0:02:08.920 I mean, I'm not even sure I find him annoying 0:02:09.000 --> 0:02:11.720 quite honestly at all. So that which is, you know, 0:02:11.800 --> 0:02:13.640 it's a big compliment. I think I think he did 0:02:13.680 --> 0:02:15.720 a good job. I mean, Chuck Todd's very annoying. He 0:02:15.880 --> 0:02:20.360 was there too. But yeah, it was quite a throwdown. 0:02:20.720 --> 0:02:23.919 And that we started off with that SoundBite was the 0:02:24.000 --> 0:02:27.880 single most interesting exchange for me of the night. Now, 0:02:27.960 --> 0:02:30.600 everyone brings their own biases to this, and when you 0:02:30.680 --> 0:02:33.880 talk about who you thought had the best night, and look, 0:02:33.880 --> 0:02:36.320 Bloomberg did not have a good night, didn't have a 0:02:36.360 --> 0:02:40.960 good night, there's no question, okay, but Bloomberg also would 0:02:40.960 --> 0:02:42.959 probably stand right next to me and if we could 0:02:43.080 --> 0:02:45.040 and we asked them the question what do you think 0:02:45.080 --> 0:02:48.280 about last night? He said, who cares? In a week, 0:02:48.320 --> 0:02:50.960 all people will remember is the ad that they're seeing 0:02:51.600 --> 0:02:55.240 not just on TV, on their smartphone, in their Facebook account, 0:02:55.480 --> 0:02:59.600 on Twitter, in their email box from people talking about 0:02:59.600 --> 0:03:03.639 how great bombergs. So does the debate last night really matter? 0:03:03.720 --> 0:03:06.160 We'll see if there's a big, a big shift in 0:03:06.240 --> 0:03:08.440 the polls. I don't think it will change all that 0:03:08.639 --> 0:03:11.519 much for Bloomberg. I mean, there were two people on 0:03:11.600 --> 0:03:17.359 the stage last night who were really battling it out 0:03:17.400 --> 0:03:20.600 for supremacy in terms of attention. Biden was very I'm 0:03:20.639 --> 0:03:23.000 just gonna yell. I'm just you know, I knew the 0:03:23.040 --> 0:03:25.639 Obamacare and I did this through and I'm just yelling 0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:27.600 and I forget where I am. But I know if 0:03:27.639 --> 0:03:30.959 I keep raising my voice then people might listen. That 0:03:31.120 --> 0:03:34.679 was Biden, I, just as I've said, a third tier 0:03:34.760 --> 0:03:37.840 politician with a fourth tier mind. I also think that 0:03:38.520 --> 0:03:41.600 Bloomberg's best line. Where else have you heard Bernie Sanders 0:03:41.680 --> 0:03:45.000 socialist with three houses before? I'm not saying mister Mayor 0:03:45.840 --> 0:03:48.720 listens to this show frequently, but I'm not saying he 0:03:48.800 --> 0:03:50.880 doesn't either. I don't know. I don't know, can either 0:03:50.920 --> 0:03:52.560 confirm nor deny, And I really mean that I have 0:03:52.600 --> 0:03:56.000 absolutely no idea well that it was quite an exchange. 0:03:56.360 --> 0:03:58.520 So the big takeaways, you know, the most fun thing 0:03:58.560 --> 0:04:00.200 to do after these debates, and I didn't do one. 0:04:01.200 --> 0:04:04.560 I didn't do one because, quite honestly, I watched the 0:04:04.600 --> 0:04:07.400 whole debate this morning. I had I had something to 0:04:07.440 --> 0:04:11.080 do last night, so I watched the whole thing this morning, 0:04:11.200 --> 0:04:13.440 which was great because I was, you know, sitting there 0:04:13.520 --> 0:04:16.279 drinking mccoffee, and I didn't want to get any preconceived 0:04:16.320 --> 0:04:17.919 notions going, so I didn't see what anyone I had 0:04:17.960 --> 0:04:20.240 said about the debate. And as I watched the whole 0:04:20.279 --> 0:04:24.600 thing through, I saw that if I were to come 0:04:24.680 --> 0:04:26.520 up with some live tweets, or if I were to 0:04:27.240 --> 0:04:30.520 give you the the pithy freedom Hut style, what you 0:04:30.600 --> 0:04:33.560 need to know. Sanders got hit hard for being a 0:04:33.680 --> 0:04:35.640 socialist that's out of step with most of the country, 0:04:35.760 --> 0:04:40.160 but he still has a political army behind him. Bloomberg. 0:04:40.240 --> 0:04:42.400 It was exactly what we expected, but he did get 0:04:42.440 --> 0:04:45.640 in a good shot on on Bernie Sanders, but the 0:04:45.680 --> 0:04:47.960 stuff with the women and the non disclosure agreements will 0:04:48.000 --> 0:04:50.520 get into all the specifics. So this didn't look good 0:04:50.520 --> 0:04:52.520 for him. But again I think I think it doesn't matter. 0:04:53.000 --> 0:04:57.839 I think the people that like Bloomberg won't care. Klobaschar 0:04:58.560 --> 0:05:03.320 comes across as more reasonable and more normal than really 0:05:03.440 --> 0:05:05.880 all the other Democrats on the stage, at least to me. 0:05:06.279 --> 0:05:08.840 And that continued last night although she had she mixed 0:05:08.880 --> 0:05:10.400 it up with may Or Pete on some stuff. Mayor 0:05:10.440 --> 0:05:14.159 Pete was getting feisty with her. And then you had 0:05:14.680 --> 0:05:19.200 Elizabeth Warren, and I saw the jokes on Twitter about 0:05:19.279 --> 0:05:22.080 how you know she brought a tomahawk to a knife fight, 0:05:22.440 --> 0:05:24.320 or that she had her war paint on. I mean, 0:05:24.400 --> 0:05:29.080 people were when the president calls a political candidate pocahonas. 0:05:29.120 --> 0:05:31.400 I mean, I think the field is wide open for 0:05:31.480 --> 0:05:34.400 the continuation of those kinds of jokes. I think it's 0:05:34.480 --> 0:05:37.040 worth noting those are jokes at Elizabeth Warren's expense, not 0:05:37.120 --> 0:05:43.560 at the expense of Native American people. But it's it's 0:05:43.680 --> 0:05:47.520 amazing to see how Warren, how predictable it was for 0:05:47.800 --> 0:05:51.200 her to go after for her to go after people 0:05:51.240 --> 0:05:54.039 the way that she did, notably Mike Bloomberg. You see, 0:05:54.120 --> 0:05:56.040 she had in her head going into this debate that 0:05:56.120 --> 0:06:01.040 if she was on offense against Bloomberg would elevate her 0:06:01.520 --> 0:06:06.560 back to being at some degree of perception parody with Sanders, 0:06:06.640 --> 0:06:09.559 who is the class warfare guy. Sanders is the class 0:06:09.560 --> 0:06:13.560 warfare guy. Elizabeth Warren tried to be the more policy 0:06:13.720 --> 0:06:19.400 walk also into the class warfare stuff, but she's she's 0:06:19.440 --> 0:06:25.080 taken a slightly less aggressive approach, and last night that 0:06:25.200 --> 0:06:29.880 all went out of the window. She was going after Sanders, 0:06:29.920 --> 0:06:32.760 I'm sorry, going after Bloomberg with everything she's got. Klobe 0:06:32.800 --> 0:06:35.600 shar was going after Sanders on getting rid of healthcare 0:06:37.040 --> 0:06:39.040 healthcare for one hundred and forty nine million people with 0:06:39.080 --> 0:06:41.720 his Medicare for All planned Buddha Judge was going after 0:06:42.920 --> 0:06:47.719 going after Bernie Sanders on thirty trillion dollars of spending, 0:06:47.760 --> 0:06:50.359 only fifteen trillion of which has been explained. And thankfully 0:06:50.400 --> 0:06:52.440 we were spared from having Tom Steyer up there. Like 0:06:52.560 --> 0:06:55.680 climate changes though you know, I only wear one tie 0:06:55.800 --> 0:07:00.360 to lower the CO two emissions from making ties. So 0:07:00.520 --> 0:07:01.880 that was what was going on last night. All right, 0:07:01.960 --> 0:07:03.760 let's let's dig into a bit of the Shelby. I mean, 0:07:03.800 --> 0:07:05.840 the big takeaway is that I think that this is 0:07:05.880 --> 0:07:08.840 now it's a it's a Bernie, It's a Bernie Bloomberg 0:07:08.960 --> 0:07:12.200 fight for this nomination. I think that's the case. Maybe 0:07:12.440 --> 0:07:14.400 we'll see after Super Tuesday that Biden all of a 0:07:14.440 --> 0:07:17.280 sudden surges. But I think this is a democratic party 0:07:17.360 --> 0:07:21.080 that has to choose, and they're choosing between They're choosing 0:07:21.120 --> 0:07:24.480 between polar opposites within the party, which is what's so fascinating. 0:07:24.520 --> 0:07:27.160 These aren't two people usually. I think you would expect 0:07:27.240 --> 0:07:30.640 that at a particular political moment, there'd be two people 0:07:30.720 --> 0:07:34.200 who in a primary, we're really running for the same 0:07:34.320 --> 0:07:37.880 in the same lane, with mostly the same policy ideas, 0:07:38.280 --> 0:07:41.680 and what you have with Biden. I'm sorry with Bloomberg 0:07:41.760 --> 0:07:44.000 and Bernie getting all these bees, Buddha judge, there's too 0:07:44.040 --> 0:07:47.200 many bees in this race. It's a good thing Buck 0:07:47.280 --> 0:07:48.840 isn't in the mix. But then I don't have to 0:07:48.920 --> 0:07:51.000 take them all to school in that debate stage. But 0:07:51.160 --> 0:07:55.240 you have these different candidates, and they are far apart 0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:57.560 on these issues, so far apart that you have to 0:07:57.640 --> 0:08:01.000 wonder if Bloomberg, under other circum stances would even really 0:08:01.040 --> 0:08:03.600 be considered a Democrat or if he's really more of 0:08:03.640 --> 0:08:06.800 an independent who's trying to run as a Democrat in 0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:11.160 order to prevent the victory of Donald Trump. So now 0:08:11.560 --> 0:08:14.000 let's get to it. This is where let's start with 0:08:14.080 --> 0:08:18.320 this one, because going the person who went after Bloomberg 0:08:18.480 --> 0:08:23.600 the hardest, no question, was Elizabeth Warren. Warren was setting 0:08:24.360 --> 0:08:27.440 setting the ambush from the very beginning. And here is 0:08:27.480 --> 0:08:29.880 how she started. This was earlier the debate two. Here's 0:08:29.920 --> 0:08:33.800 how she started out Play five. I'd like to talk 0:08:33.840 --> 0:08:37.720 about who were running against a billionaire who calls women 0:08:37.920 --> 0:08:42.400 fat broads and horse faced lesbians. And no I'm not 0:08:42.480 --> 0:08:46.640 talking about Donald Trump. I'm talking about Mayor Bloomberg. Democrass 0:08:47.200 --> 0:08:50.960 are not going to win if we have a nominee 0:08:51.040 --> 0:08:55.120 who has a history of hiding his tax returns, of 0:08:55.320 --> 0:09:00.599 harassing women, and of supporting racist policies like redline and 0:09:00.960 --> 0:09:04.800 stop and frisk. Look, I'll support whoever the Democratic nominee is, 0:09:05.280 --> 0:09:09.920 but understand this, Democrats take a huge risk if we 0:09:10.080 --> 0:09:15.720 just substitute one arrogant billionaire for another. Whoa the range 0:09:15.840 --> 0:09:21.280 is hot rounds getting fired, it's who it's with. Warren 0:09:21.320 --> 0:09:23.480 deciding that she was just going to go after Bloomberg 0:09:23.880 --> 0:09:26.560 and say that he's not really much better than Trump. 0:09:26.880 --> 0:09:29.280 That's certainly the implication. She more or less came out 0:09:29.320 --> 0:09:32.280 and said it. Those things that she rattled off that 0:09:32.440 --> 0:09:35.960 she believes will prevent the Democratic Party from winning. Let's understand, 0:09:36.000 --> 0:09:37.600 if you take a longer view, if you look at 0:09:37.640 --> 0:09:42.000 this from a strategic perspective, redlining, his comments about women 0:09:42.679 --> 0:09:48.240 and stopping frisk, those are all problems for the Democrat base. 0:09:49.320 --> 0:09:51.920 I don't think any of those are going to be 0:09:52.720 --> 0:09:56.680 major issues of concern in the states that if Bloomberg 0:09:56.760 --> 0:09:59.920 were the winner of the primary, he would be facing 0:10:00.080 --> 0:10:04.440 off against Trump in right Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Florida, 0:10:05.600 --> 0:10:07.719 and whatever else you want to throw in there. I mean, though, 0:10:07.720 --> 0:10:09.760 those main states that you have to look at as 0:10:10.280 --> 0:10:12.280 the determining factor in who's going to be the next 0:10:12.320 --> 0:10:14.360 president United States. I don't know if any of that 0:10:14.480 --> 0:10:17.120 really matters. You can say that, you know, minority turnout 0:10:17.160 --> 0:10:19.360 in those states might be a little bit suppressed for Bloomberg, 0:10:19.440 --> 0:10:23.079 but minority turnout in those states is generally not or 0:10:23.440 --> 0:10:25.280 it all. It depends on which stay we're talking about 0:10:25.720 --> 0:10:31.080 and which minority group. So that's that remains to be seen. 0:10:31.160 --> 0:10:33.720 I just don't think that any of those issues would 0:10:33.840 --> 0:10:37.600 stop a Democrat voter from coming out and voting from 0:10:37.600 --> 0:10:40.839 Mike Bloomberg. I could be wrong. We are seeing now 0:10:40.920 --> 0:10:44.959 that there's still major concerns among the Democratic establishment that 0:10:45.080 --> 0:10:48.559 Bernie Sanders is out of the national mainstream. He's not 0:10:48.600 --> 0:10:51.160 out of the Democratic Party mainstream, clearly, but is he 0:10:51.200 --> 0:10:55.280 out of the national mainstream? Do independence do undecided voters 0:10:55.720 --> 0:10:59.880 turn out for a Bernie Sanders radical socialist agenda. That's 0:11:00.120 --> 0:11:02.680 that's the pivotal question. That's what has to be answered 0:11:02.720 --> 0:11:05.040 by these Democrats, and I don't think they're ready for that. 0:11:05.240 --> 0:11:07.199 Let me go back to Bloomberg for a second. Look. 0:11:07.280 --> 0:11:10.760 I hate Bloomberg's policies, but I do think that we 0:11:11.000 --> 0:11:14.200 need to understand who's a bigger threat to the American 0:11:14.360 --> 0:11:18.040 economy and way of life among the Democrats, and I 0:11:18.120 --> 0:11:21.360 believe that Bernie Sanders is a much more It's obvious 0:11:21.400 --> 0:11:24.400 that he's a much more serious threat to many of 0:11:24.440 --> 0:11:28.000 the things that are important to us. So if I 0:11:28.080 --> 0:11:30.320 ever sound like I'm being a little too favorable to Bloomberg, 0:11:30.480 --> 0:11:32.240 you know, full disclosure. You know that I worked for 0:11:32.240 --> 0:11:34.640 the MYPD when Bloomberg was the mayor, and that he 0:11:34.760 --> 0:11:38.439 was relatively well regarded in that role, and he was 0:11:38.480 --> 0:11:41.760 a Republican then. But I also think that Bloomberg on 0:11:41.920 --> 0:11:45.640 climate change and on guns and there's a whole host 0:11:45.679 --> 0:11:48.800 of issues where he is terrible. He's not like a 0:11:48.920 --> 0:11:51.400 little bit bad. He's not a moderate. He's a leftist 0:11:51.520 --> 0:11:54.439 on those issues. So I like to give you that 0:11:55.200 --> 0:11:57.560 context for everything else. I'm going to say, because I'm 0:11:57.640 --> 0:11:59.440 kind of gonna be one of these people right now. 0:11:59.520 --> 0:12:02.520 Everyone's when they're pulling apart this primary, they either are 0:12:02.960 --> 0:12:08.600 bashing Bloomberg and de facto pumping up Bernie a little bit, 0:12:08.880 --> 0:12:11.360 or bashing Bernie and pumping up Bloomerg a little bit. 0:12:11.400 --> 0:12:13.720 I mean, that's even if that's not the intent, that's 0:12:13.760 --> 0:12:16.679 the side effect. So I'm aware that that may be 0:12:16.800 --> 0:12:19.800 what's going on the Indy. Please everyone, I love all 0:12:19.840 --> 0:12:21.440 of you who listen to this show, and I am 0:12:21.520 --> 0:12:23.560 humbled and honored, and I mean that from the bottom 0:12:23.559 --> 0:12:25.320 of my heart. Every day. I don't know how many 0:12:25.400 --> 0:12:27.840 jobs I could say this, though I have no control 0:12:28.000 --> 0:12:32.520 over Bloomberg by ads on our podcast, iHeart does not 0:12:32.960 --> 0:12:36.120 with the company takes political advertisements, and if you take 0:12:36.160 --> 0:12:39.079 political advertisements, which if you're a major media company you 0:12:39.320 --> 0:12:43.720 have to, you can't discriminate against different political parties. So please, 0:12:43.880 --> 0:12:46.200 I love you all. But I keep getting a producer, 0:12:46.240 --> 0:12:47.880 markast to feel that we can get these emails like 0:12:47.960 --> 0:12:51.240 why is Bloomberg by? We can't stop him? There are 0:12:51.600 --> 0:12:53.880 and I would argue that we should be able to 0:12:54.600 --> 0:12:57.880 that this. Uh, these campaign finance laws are ridiculous in 0:12:57.920 --> 0:13:00.240 a lot of ways. But I just wanted to say 0:13:00.320 --> 0:13:03.040 that there's nothing that we can do right now about 0:13:03.080 --> 0:13:06.719 it or with all that. This is where Bloomberg, this 0:13:06.840 --> 0:13:09.520 is where things got rough for him, and he looked 0:13:09.520 --> 0:13:12.160 like he was up there on stage and he's just like, ah, 0:13:13.200 --> 0:13:15.679 do I have to be here? Can I pay someone 0:13:15.760 --> 0:13:18.959 else to be here instead of me? I'm so bored, 0:13:19.559 --> 0:13:22.840 I don't want to be here. I'm tired. I'm worth 0:13:22.920 --> 0:13:26.719 like a hundred bajillion dollars like what? So here is 0:13:26.760 --> 0:13:31.280 where he got himself into a tough spot up on 0:13:31.400 --> 0:13:34.200 that stage. Play one Mark and the Mari comes along 0:13:34.240 --> 0:13:36.560 on His attorney said, I will give you this amount 0:13:36.600 --> 0:13:39.520 of money if you promise you'll never say anything. That's 0:13:39.559 --> 0:13:45.480 how it works. I said, we're not going to get 0:13:46.040 --> 0:13:50.640 to end these agreements because they were made consensually, and 0:13:51.120 --> 0:13:54.080 they have every right to expect that they will stay private. 0:13:54.360 --> 0:13:57.120 If they want to release it, they should be able 0:13:57.200 --> 0:14:02.760 to release themselves. I will say yes, no, the Mayor. 0:14:02.960 --> 0:14:04.839 I shouldn't. By the way, I'm somebody who doesn't like 0:14:04.920 --> 0:14:07.000 the retention of titles things, so I shouldn't we I 0:14:07.120 --> 0:14:08.640 just go with may Or Pete because his last name 0:14:08.679 --> 0:14:11.240 is hard to say like everybody else's. It's not out 0:14:11.280 --> 0:14:14.880 of some strange newfound respect for for Pete Buddha judge, 0:14:15.880 --> 0:14:21.160 but Bloomberg. He is not may Or Bloomberg anymore. Bloomberg 0:14:21.680 --> 0:14:24.480 did not do himself any favors there. But what is 0:14:24.480 --> 0:14:26.320 he really going to say? I don't know what the 0:14:27.280 --> 0:14:30.760 NDAs that were signed. I don't know what the provisions 0:14:30.800 --> 0:14:33.320 are in them and who's involved, And it might be 0:14:33.400 --> 0:14:36.960 people that sued Bloomberg's company for what other managers did, 0:14:37.080 --> 0:14:39.400 and so that then would be he's not in a 0:14:39.480 --> 0:14:41.080 position to just wave it, but no one wants to. 0:14:41.200 --> 0:14:42.720 No one cares about that. All they care about is 0:14:42.760 --> 0:14:47.040 that Bloomberg has NDA's from his company, where he has 0:14:47.160 --> 0:14:51.000 apparently a history of not always speaking very well, you know, 0:14:51.160 --> 0:14:55.280 in front of women and about women, And the Democrats 0:14:55.360 --> 0:14:58.280 must at some level be aware that all their complaints 0:14:58.320 --> 0:15:00.640 about how horrible Trump is when it comes to women, 0:15:01.360 --> 0:15:03.320 that's not going to be as effective a line of 0:15:03.320 --> 0:15:10.560 attack if, in fact, you have a Bloomberg nominee from 0:15:10.600 --> 0:15:15.680 the Democratic Party. One thing is interesting Bernie Sanders. You know, 0:15:15.760 --> 0:15:17.920 he's been he's been married a few times. His personal 0:15:17.960 --> 0:15:20.080 life somehow never gets brought up in any of this either. 0:15:20.360 --> 0:15:23.000 I just I think I think that we've reached the 0:15:23.040 --> 0:15:25.640 point now where where divorces and messy divorces and those 0:15:25.680 --> 0:15:28.720 things for political office nobody really cares, uh, you know, 0:15:29.440 --> 0:15:31.680 kids with with one wife and then kids with another 0:15:31.760 --> 0:15:33.880 wife or kids without a wife, or whatever it may be. 0:15:34.000 --> 0:15:37.320 I think that people are increasingly just don't really make 0:15:37.440 --> 0:15:40.120 decisions based on that. I think that's what we're seeing. 0:15:40.480 --> 0:15:43.600 But Bernie Sanders personal life, somehow always have always no 0:15:43.720 --> 0:15:46.120 one brings it up. They did bring up his medical 0:15:46.200 --> 0:15:50.360 records last night and his promise that he'd release them, 0:15:50.520 --> 0:15:53.640 which he has gone back on, but really the the 0:15:54.200 --> 0:15:59.680 entire m last night for Warren and for Bernie, and 0:16:00.080 --> 0:16:01.720 probably for a couple of other candidates. You want to 0:16:01.720 --> 0:16:03.800 throw them in there too. Was it just stop this 0:16:04.000 --> 0:16:10.640 Bloomberg momentum, this juggernaut of financial political this financial political 0:16:10.720 --> 0:16:14.240 onslaught And here is what Warren called for, play too. 0:16:15.200 --> 0:16:18.360 I hope that Michael Bloomberg decides to live by what 0:16:18.480 --> 0:16:20.920 he says. He just wants to see the Democrats beat 0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:24.360 Donald Trump. So that's great, Mike Bloomberg, drop out of 0:16:24.400 --> 0:16:28.240 the race, keep putting your money in to help Democrats 0:16:28.320 --> 0:16:31.240 beat Donald Trump, and just take your ego out of this. 0:16:31.800 --> 0:16:35.440 Did you expect him to do differently tonight or better 0:16:35.600 --> 0:16:38.880 than he did? What shocks me is he seems so 0:16:39.040 --> 0:16:43.080 unprepared for the question about the nondisclosure agreements. I mean, 0:16:43.280 --> 0:16:47.600 think about what that says about Mike Bloomberg, that all 0:16:47.680 --> 0:16:53.280 these years he has been sued evidently multiple times for 0:16:53.720 --> 0:16:58.120 discrimination against women and for harassing women. The details we 0:16:58.240 --> 0:17:01.120 don't know, because each time it happens, if he puts 0:17:01.160 --> 0:17:03.640 a chunk of money on the table and then forces 0:17:03.720 --> 0:17:06.320 the woman to agree to wear a muzzle for the 0:17:06.440 --> 0:17:11.800 rest of her life over this issue, well that was 0:17:11.880 --> 0:17:14.359 the that was the main attack against Bloomberg. Last night, 0:17:14.560 --> 0:17:16.280 and it didn't look good and Bloomberg had a bad 0:17:16.400 --> 0:17:18.600 night all in all on the debate stage. But I 0:17:18.720 --> 0:17:20.959 still hold to I don't think. I don't think anyone's 0:17:21.000 --> 0:17:25.720 gonna care. We'll see if I'm writing the polls. You're 0:17:25.800 --> 0:17:28.480 in the freedom hunt. This is the Buck Sex and 0:17:28.520 --> 0:17:35.280 Show podcast, all right. So that that was the the 0:17:35.440 --> 0:17:38.080 big moments. The big moments last night were about the 0:17:38.440 --> 0:17:41.560 attacks about different candidates on that stage going on offense 0:17:41.600 --> 0:17:45.000 against each other. I think, by the way, I think 0:17:45.000 --> 0:17:48.160 that that's fine. I don't understand why people keep saying 0:17:48.200 --> 0:17:50.960 they should focus on Trump. We all know they hate 0:17:51.000 --> 0:17:53.000 Trump and think that he's the Antichrist, and they're all 0:17:53.320 --> 0:17:55.680 we get that. That doesn't tell us anything. What do 0:17:55.720 --> 0:17:57.240 they think about each other? And how are they different 0:17:57.240 --> 0:17:59.680 from each other? And if you're gonna ask for the 0:17:59.720 --> 0:18:01.960 most powerful job in the world and the nuclear codes, 0:18:02.320 --> 0:18:04.639 you should be able to take people coming at you 0:18:04.760 --> 0:18:06.880 on stage and fund of millions and millions of audience. 0:18:07.119 --> 0:18:09.640 I mean, conservative pundits deal with that all the time. 0:18:10.400 --> 0:18:13.800 Thanks for listening to The Bus Sesson Show podcasts. Remember 0:18:13.920 --> 0:18:17.639 to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever 0:18:17.760 --> 0:18:21.880 you get your podcasts, Sleepy Joe Biden the other day 0:18:22.160 --> 0:18:25.239 had sixty eight people. And now they have a new 0:18:25.359 --> 0:18:29.480 member of the clue, Mini Mic Minim no Boxes. We 0:18:29.560 --> 0:18:33.280 call him No Boxes. And I hear he's getting pounded tonight. 0:18:33.400 --> 0:18:36.600 You know, he's in a debate. I hear that pounding. Year. 0:18:38.000 --> 0:18:42.440 He spent five hundred million dollars so far and I 0:18:42.520 --> 0:18:44.840 think he has fifteen points. It just came out, Hey, 0:18:44.880 --> 0:18:49.480 fake news. How many points does he have right now? Fifteen? Yeah. 0:18:49.640 --> 0:18:51.159 I love when he calls out the fake news in 0:18:51.160 --> 0:18:52.760 the back of the room. You know why, because it 0:18:52.880 --> 0:18:54.960 makes them so mad. Even then they have no sense 0:18:55.000 --> 0:18:56.760 of humor about it at all. They have no sense 0:18:56.840 --> 0:19:02.600 of self deprecation. In the corporate liberal news media, they 0:19:02.720 --> 0:19:05.159 get very touchy about it. So I think that was 0:19:05.200 --> 0:19:08.680 pretty fantastic when he does it. But look, you look 0:19:08.680 --> 0:19:14.000 at the most recent, most recent polling, and you know 0:19:14.200 --> 0:19:19.480 Sanders is at the top, Biden still is doing well, 0:19:19.560 --> 0:19:22.359 although not well enough maybe to be the nominee. And 0:19:22.600 --> 0:19:25.800 Bloomberg has bought himself into this very key spot, this 0:19:25.920 --> 0:19:29.040 key position. What Warren said that she wants his cash 0:19:29.119 --> 0:19:32.480 to be used for to help the Democrats. I could 0:19:32.520 --> 0:19:34.920 see that happening, and that's been my concern all along. 0:19:35.240 --> 0:19:40.320 Imagine a Sanders, let's say a Sanders Klobischar ticket, which 0:19:40.359 --> 0:19:42.680 I think would be a very wise ticket for the 0:19:42.720 --> 0:19:45.560 Democrats from just their perspective of trying to win and 0:19:45.640 --> 0:19:48.360 beat Trump. I think Sanders Klobischar would make a lot 0:19:48.400 --> 0:19:51.119 of sense if Bernie is the nominee, and then with 0:19:51.200 --> 0:19:54.200 Bloomberg's checkbook behind it, with some kind of a promise, 0:19:54.320 --> 0:19:56.320 you know, maybe it's behind closed doors between Bernie and 0:19:56.320 --> 0:20:00.399 Bloomberg that Bernie won't go full Bernie. I don't think 0:20:00.400 --> 0:20:03.320 Bernie would make that promise, so I don't know. I 0:20:03.640 --> 0:20:05.920 think that I think that Bloomberg has stepped into this 0:20:06.119 --> 0:20:10.000 race more to defeat Bernie Sanders than to defeat Donald Trump. 0:20:10.640 --> 0:20:12.720 That's that's my belief. Now he can't say that because 0:20:12.720 --> 0:20:15.800 it would look like, you know, he's a Republican trojan 0:20:15.880 --> 0:20:18.800 horse going into the Democratic primary. I think it's more 0:20:18.840 --> 0:20:21.920 important to Mike Bloomberg that Bernie Sanders is not the 0:20:22.040 --> 0:20:24.560 Democrat nominee than that Donald Trump is not president for 0:20:24.640 --> 0:20:28.480 four more years. And I think that's pretty sound analysis 0:20:28.640 --> 0:20:32.280 from him. I do not find that all that I 0:20:32.359 --> 0:20:36.399 do not find that to be off at all. Obviously, 0:20:36.480 --> 0:20:38.440 I share that if that is in fact the way 0:20:38.440 --> 0:20:41.160 Bloomberg feels, I think that he's correct in that it's 0:20:41.200 --> 0:20:44.840 a much bigger deal the Democrats can rally after if 0:20:44.880 --> 0:20:47.920 Trump were to beat let's say, Biden in the in 0:20:48.000 --> 0:20:51.600 the next election. But I don't know if the Democrats 0:20:51.640 --> 0:20:54.320 can come back from a socialist as the as their 0:20:54.400 --> 0:20:58.520 primary victor going up in a national election that's going 0:20:58.560 --> 0:21:02.040 to be Unless you think that, then Bernie's movement is 0:21:02.119 --> 0:21:08.800 picked up by Oh, I don't know, AOC play fifteen 0:21:08.880 --> 0:21:12.640 producer Mark. I think there's a couple of reasons. One, 0:21:14.480 --> 0:21:17.480 before people even knew who I was, like five minutes 0:21:17.520 --> 0:21:20.760 after I won my primary, it was the Apocalypse on 0:21:20.840 --> 0:21:24.720 Fox News. And I think it's because our political system 0:21:24.840 --> 0:21:28.639 is not designed for people like us. They're not designed 0:21:28.640 --> 0:21:31.480 for working people to succeed, for young people, for women, 0:21:32.040 --> 0:21:35.920 for people of color. It's not particularly welcoming and historically 0:21:37.320 --> 0:21:40.760 to have someone like that assent, especially when I was 0:21:40.840 --> 0:21:43.680 running against someone who was the antithesis of those things, 0:21:44.400 --> 0:21:48.399 to send so rapidly right, it's it's up ending. But 0:21:48.560 --> 0:21:54.280 also I think it's because our entire political system revolves 0:21:54.560 --> 0:21:58.760 frankly around rich men, and rich men are not the 0:21:58.840 --> 0:22:03.680 center of my universe. Working families are. So she is 0:22:03.720 --> 0:22:06.879 going to be the Democrat nominee at some point. I 0:22:07.000 --> 0:22:09.000 know this is a Now she's thirty. You've got to 0:22:09.040 --> 0:22:12.360 be thirty five to even under the constitution run for president. 0:22:12.440 --> 0:22:15.240 But that I don't know. I guess she wouldn't be 0:22:15.480 --> 0:22:19.000 around for the next cycle. But she'll be at the 0:22:19.040 --> 0:22:22.080 in the next presidential cycle unless a Democrat. Think of 0:22:22.119 --> 0:22:24.840 it this way. If a Democrat wins now in twenty twenty, 0:22:25.680 --> 0:22:27.720 I think it's going to be you know, AOC would 0:22:27.760 --> 0:22:31.000 certainly try after that Democrat has had his or her 0:22:31.040 --> 0:22:34.160 eight year run to run for president. But if Trump 0:22:34.280 --> 0:22:39.040 wins reelection, which I certainly hope he does, AOC Bernie 0:22:39.080 --> 0:22:41.639 will be I think even Democrats would accept that in 0:22:41.720 --> 0:22:45.080 four more years, at age eighty two, Bernie would be 0:22:45.160 --> 0:22:46.960 too old. Look, I think Bloomberg is too old. I 0:22:47.040 --> 0:22:51.040 think Biden is too old. I don't understand why anyone 0:22:51.240 --> 0:22:53.160 pretends like that's not the case. These people are too 0:22:53.400 --> 0:22:58.000 old for the job. If Trump was eight nine years 0:22:58.040 --> 0:22:59.560 older than he is, I mean, like, you know, I 0:22:59.640 --> 0:23:01.720 think I'm getting up a little too old for the 0:23:01.840 --> 0:23:04.000 job too. I mean, he's just under the wire of 0:23:04.119 --> 0:23:08.560 what I think is feasible for age. But also, and 0:23:08.680 --> 0:23:11.639 I'm biased, of course, but I admit, unlike the other 0:23:11.720 --> 0:23:14.040 unlike the fake news, I admit that I'm a Trump supporter, 0:23:14.160 --> 0:23:15.840 and then I appreciate what the president is doing, and 0:23:15.920 --> 0:23:19.360 I am on board for and advocate for almost all 0:23:19.440 --> 0:23:21.119 of his agenda. I mean, I really pretty much all 0:23:21.160 --> 0:23:26.080 the agenda. I think the Trump has an incredible energy 0:23:26.600 --> 0:23:29.600 and dynamism, and it's apparent all the time. And he 0:23:29.760 --> 0:23:33.320 never looks like Bernie looks like at any moment, you know, 0:23:34.000 --> 0:23:36.840 he's just gonna, like need a nap in a sippy cup. 0:23:36.880 --> 0:23:40.600 I mean, that's just the sense you get. Biden is 0:23:40.760 --> 0:23:42.280 like the old guy that I've been trying to get 0:23:42.359 --> 0:23:44.399 him to take a nap and he's yelling about how 0:23:44.440 --> 0:23:46.639 he's not tired yet. You know that That's kind of 0:23:46.720 --> 0:23:48.520 what you get from Joe Biden. These guys are too 0:23:48.600 --> 0:23:51.440 old AOC Buddha Judge, this is the future. This is 0:23:51.440 --> 0:23:53.000 the future of the Democratic Party. I also have to 0:23:53.040 --> 0:23:56.000 wonder if Buddha Judge is gonna leave Indiana and just 0:23:56.119 --> 0:23:57.960 decide he's going to run somewhere else because really what 0:23:58.080 --> 0:24:02.360 he the much safer play him or the much easier 0:24:02.440 --> 0:24:04.000 play for him down the line would be to go 0:24:04.040 --> 0:24:07.600 to a safe blue place, safe blue state and become 0:24:07.640 --> 0:24:10.639 a congressman and then congressman or run for Senate. I mean, 0:24:10.680 --> 0:24:12.440 look at Hillary Clinton did right Once you had that 0:24:12.520 --> 0:24:14.560 level of national recognition, Hillary just showed up in New 0:24:14.640 --> 0:24:16.159 York and became a center from New York. Wasn't a 0:24:16.160 --> 0:24:19.400 New Yorker never, but yeah, it's just made it happen. 0:24:19.760 --> 0:24:21.480 I think you'll see that with Buddha Judge, because he's 0:24:21.480 --> 0:24:24.159 also gonna you know, you're already seeing the future of 0:24:24.240 --> 0:24:27.000 the Democratic Party is so even if we defeat Bernie 0:24:27.080 --> 0:24:31.600 this time around, unless it is a crushing defeat. That's 0:24:31.600 --> 0:24:34.040 why I think that Bernie against Trump is probably a 0:24:34.119 --> 0:24:36.440 better thing for the country because we can see that 0:24:36.800 --> 0:24:40.000 and have the argument if Bernie loses in the primary 0:24:40.359 --> 0:24:43.880 to i mean Biden or Bloomberg. You got to think 0:24:43.960 --> 0:24:47.080 that the supporters that Sanders have, they're just going to 0:24:47.160 --> 0:24:49.879 think that, and they did get screwed over by the DNC. 0:24:50.160 --> 0:24:52.480 That's a real thing. Once again. The media as well, 0:24:52.720 --> 0:24:55.840 not as supportive of Sanders as they are of other candidates, 0:24:56.119 --> 0:24:58.680 and so at that point they'll just look for a 0:24:58.880 --> 0:25:03.480 new figure to rally around for, you know, for Sandersism, 0:25:04.160 --> 0:25:06.600 you know, for to be a sander Nista. Sanders will 0:25:06.640 --> 0:25:10.879 become the Lenin, if you will, of the American socialist movement, 0:25:11.520 --> 0:25:16.200 and they'll be looking for Stalin. I mean, which shit, 0:25:16.520 --> 0:25:19.080 I would not really stolid you get what I'm saying. 0:25:19.119 --> 0:25:22.520 I was just playing out that analogy there. Although I 0:25:22.800 --> 0:25:24.399 will talk to you later in the show about some 0:25:24.640 --> 0:25:27.720 some troubling thoughts I have about wokeism and what our 0:25:27.760 --> 0:25:29.560 future really is as a country. I saw a very 0:25:29.640 --> 0:25:36.320 interesting piece on that one. Let's get to some of 0:25:36.400 --> 0:25:38.640 the other important moment, because I'm gonna spend all data 0:25:38.640 --> 0:25:40.600 down the debate. You didn't if you if you watched it, 0:25:40.680 --> 0:25:42.560 you've already seen a lot of or you already know 0:25:42.640 --> 0:25:44.480 some of what I'm gonna be pointing out to you. 0:25:44.640 --> 0:25:46.359 And I think there are other things to talk about, 0:25:46.359 --> 0:25:51.000 including Roger Stone verdict I'm sorry, sentencing. We already have 0:25:51.080 --> 0:25:54.000 the verdict, obviously, the sentencing of Roger Stone, the verdict 0:25:54.119 --> 0:25:59.280 on his sentence. You could say, here is what I 0:25:59.440 --> 0:26:05.080 think was the single you know the single moment that 0:26:05.400 --> 0:26:10.760 Mayor Pete had where he also went after Sanders and 0:26:11.680 --> 0:26:13.879 was somewhat memorable, and that he's pointing out, like, guys, this, 0:26:14.000 --> 0:26:16.119 this person's a socialist. This is the Democratic Party. You 0:26:16.200 --> 0:26:19.040 got a socialist running for president who's winning. Right now, 0:26:19.119 --> 0:26:22.240 play three. We could wake up two weeks from today, 0:26:22.600 --> 0:26:26.280 the day after Super Tuesday, and the only candidates left 0:26:26.320 --> 0:26:29.640 standing will be Bernie Sanders and Mike Bloomberg, the two 0:26:29.880 --> 0:26:35.240 most polarizing figures on this stage, and most Americans don't 0:26:35.240 --> 0:26:37.800 see where they fit. If they've got to choose between 0:26:38.119 --> 0:26:40.720 a socialist who thinks that capitalism is the root of 0:26:40.760 --> 0:26:44.120 all evil and a billionaire who thinks that money ought 0:26:44.160 --> 0:26:46.560 to be the root of all power. Let's put forward 0:26:46.840 --> 0:26:50.960 somebody who actually lives and works in a middle class 0:26:50.960 --> 0:26:54.720 neighborhood in an industrial Midwestern city. Let's put forward somebody 0:26:54.760 --> 0:26:59.600 who's actually a Democrat, actually a Democrat. That's a clear 0:26:59.680 --> 0:27:02.760 swype ed Bernie Sanders, and I think it should be 0:27:02.800 --> 0:27:06.160 a more effective one. Except the Democratic Party really now 0:27:06.440 --> 0:27:08.560 is whether they will admit it or not, whether they 0:27:08.600 --> 0:27:10.760 will accept it or not, the Democratic Party is increasingly 0:27:10.840 --> 0:27:15.240 a socialist party. That's where this is now that that's 0:27:15.280 --> 0:27:20.360 where their policies are directed. They are in the business 0:27:20.600 --> 0:27:24.000 of bringing socialism to the United States, and that's where 0:27:24.040 --> 0:27:27.040 I think Bloomberg's strongest points last night were just you 0:27:27.119 --> 0:27:29.359 guys are crazy, right, you will understand that. I mean, 0:27:29.760 --> 0:27:34.399 you know, the Sanders Warren Boodha judge on policy, Booda 0:27:34.480 --> 0:27:39.240 judge seems you know, he's very polished and former McKinsey 0:27:39.320 --> 0:27:41.680 consultants and all the rest. He seems like a guy 0:27:41.840 --> 0:27:45.320 that would be reasonable based on tone, based on policy, 0:27:45.480 --> 0:27:47.000 is not even the least bit reasonable. And when he does, 0:27:47.280 --> 0:27:49.360 when he does his Pope Pete routine, I lose my mind. 0:27:49.920 --> 0:27:52.439 Bloomberg was trying to just yell this. I think he's 0:27:52.440 --> 0:27:53.920 trying to do the Democrat. He thinks he's doing the 0:27:53.960 --> 0:27:58.120 Democratic Party a huge favor, if anything, just by stopping 0:27:58.160 --> 0:28:01.399 Bernie Sanders from being the nominee. I do believe that 0:28:01.440 --> 0:28:04.560 he if Biden, let's say, we're all kind of counting 0:28:04.600 --> 0:28:06.360 Biden now this one. I've been counting him out all along, 0:28:06.400 --> 0:28:08.119 but I'll just say it is too early, based on 0:28:08.240 --> 0:28:10.960 numbers and based on polling to say Biden's a no 0:28:11.119 --> 0:28:16.560 go there's no doubt in my mind that Bloomberg will 0:28:16.880 --> 0:28:21.560 will put his cash behind a Biden candidacy to help 0:28:21.600 --> 0:28:24.240 defeed Trump. So you got to remember that means that 0:28:24.320 --> 0:28:26.880 Biden's effectively going to be running with an unlimited checkbook, 0:28:27.119 --> 0:28:29.280 and Biden will be able to, you know, the whole 0:28:29.600 --> 0:28:32.520 all the time, spend fundraising everything else. That it's going 0:28:32.600 --> 0:28:35.160 to change the whole game. So we have to take 0:28:35.280 --> 0:28:37.119 very seriously that Donald Trump is going to have some 0:28:37.520 --> 0:28:40.880 real competition here. It's going to be closer than maybe 0:28:40.920 --> 0:28:43.120 we had anticipated, and it was going to and it's 0:28:43.120 --> 0:28:44.800 always going to be close because of the way the 0:28:44.840 --> 0:28:47.480 system currently is in the polarization in our politics. But 0:28:47.600 --> 0:28:50.280 Bloomberg is trying to warn them, you put a socialist 0:28:50.360 --> 0:28:52.320 up there, guys, it's not going to be good play 0:28:52.400 --> 0:28:55.880 for I don't think there's any chance of the senator 0:28:56.000 --> 0:28:58.480 beating President Trump if you don't start out by saying, 0:28:59.320 --> 0:29:02.800 I've got to written sixty million people, I'm going to 0:29:02.880 --> 0:29:06.240 take away the insurance plan that they love. That's just 0:29:06.440 --> 0:29:08.800 not a ways that you go and start building the 0:29:08.920 --> 0:29:12.880 coalition that the Sanders camp thinks that they can do. 0:29:13.560 --> 0:29:16.720 I don't think there's any chance whatsoever, and if he 0:29:17.440 --> 0:29:20.640 goes and is the candidate, we will have Donald Trump 0:29:20.960 --> 0:29:26.880 for another four years. I think he's probably right, But 0:29:27.080 --> 0:29:30.120 I know some very smart conservatives who would argue till 0:29:30.120 --> 0:29:33.760 they're blue in the face that Bernie Sanders is the 0:29:33.920 --> 0:29:36.600 only one who will really be able to defeat Donald Trump. 0:29:37.920 --> 0:29:39.880 Until you run the experiment, you don't know what the 0:29:40.000 --> 0:29:44.360 results are. I fall in the Bloomberg analysis here on 0:29:44.480 --> 0:29:46.880 that side, I think that he's correct that Bernie Sanders 0:29:47.320 --> 0:29:50.280 gets crushed because Americans don't really want a socialist to 0:29:50.280 --> 0:29:53.160 be the president, and Bernie Sanders, unlike much of the 0:29:53.240 --> 0:29:57.360 Democratic Party, is premised on telling people things when you 0:29:57.440 --> 0:29:59.960 want them to vote for you, and then not really 0:30:00.400 --> 0:30:02.880 believing those things or acting on those things the moment 0:30:03.000 --> 0:30:05.200 that the votes are cast and now they're in power. 0:30:05.680 --> 0:30:07.640 Democrats do a lot of head fakes. They do a 0:30:07.680 --> 0:30:12.040 lot of disingenuous this is who we are outreach when 0:30:12.080 --> 0:30:15.040 it's really not who they are. You know, a lot 0:30:15.360 --> 0:30:18.360 of the ways that they position different candidates, especially in 0:30:18.480 --> 0:30:21.480 states that are that are purple or where there's a 0:30:21.640 --> 0:30:26.200 large base of Republican voters, is to allow them to 0:30:26.720 --> 0:30:29.680 just be close enough to close enough to the mainstream 0:30:30.120 --> 0:30:31.720 that they can get away with an election time and 0:30:31.760 --> 0:30:33.520 then all of a sudden they're in lockstep with Nancy 0:30:33.560 --> 0:30:36.880 Pelosi or in lockstep with Chuck Schumer on all legislative issues. 0:30:37.520 --> 0:30:40.720 That's very very that's a very common theme among among 0:30:40.760 --> 0:30:43.360 the Democrats. Sanders dispenses with that, and he's like, no, 0:30:43.480 --> 0:30:47.720 I'm a socialist, like really an actual capital s oh 0:30:49.160 --> 0:30:59.400 c h. Speaking of having so surely speaking of having 0:30:59.520 --> 0:31:06.920 a difficult time with trivia and spelling and getting things right. Um, 0:31:07.360 --> 0:31:09.800 I'm just kidding. Bernie Sanders obviously knows how to spell socialist. 0:31:09.840 --> 0:31:11.840 He is a socialist. He's probably got a tattooed somewhere 0:31:11.920 --> 0:31:15.640 on his you know, on his arm or something. Senator 0:31:15.720 --> 0:31:20.840 klobaschar to Buddha Judge. This was it after Kloba Shar 0:31:21.000 --> 0:31:25.320 forgot in an interview who the President of Mexico was. 0:31:25.520 --> 0:31:29.360 Please play twenty one. But you're staking your candidacy on 0:31:29.480 --> 0:31:34.280 your Washington experience. You're on the committee that oversees border security, 0:31:34.560 --> 0:31:37.160 You're on the committee that does trade. You're literally in 0:31:37.800 --> 0:31:41.280 part of the committee that's overseeing these things. And we're 0:31:41.320 --> 0:31:43.800 not able to speak to literally the first thing about 0:31:43.840 --> 0:31:46.520 the politics of the country ourselves. Are you trying to 0:31:46.600 --> 0:31:51.200 say that I'm dumb? Are you mocking me here? I 0:31:51.280 --> 0:31:55.960 made an error. People sometimes forget names. I am the 0:31:56.040 --> 0:31:59.800 one that has number one, has the experience based on 0:32:00.080 --> 0:32:04.160 passing over one thing. If I could respond, this was 0:32:04.200 --> 0:32:07.520 a pretty big a colligation. He's basically saying that I 0:32:07.600 --> 0:32:10.600 don't have the experience to be president of the United States. 0:32:11.040 --> 0:32:13.760 I have passed over one hundred bills as the lead 0:32:13.840 --> 0:32:17.120 Democrat since being in the US Senate. I am the one, 0:32:17.360 --> 0:32:21.680 not you, that has won statewide in congressional district after 0:32:21.840 --> 0:32:26.240 congressional district. And I will say, when you tried in Indiana, 0:32:26.600 --> 0:32:29.840 Pete to run what happened to you? You lost by 0:32:29.920 --> 0:32:33.680 over twenty points to someone who later lost to my 0:32:33.800 --> 0:32:37.160 friend Joe Donnelly. So don't tell me about experience. The 0:32:37.320 --> 0:32:40.680 gloves came off both sides there, the gloves came off. 0:32:41.920 --> 0:32:47.920 I was surprised Democrat debate made for good viewing. You're 0:32:48.000 --> 0:32:51.680 in the Freedom Heart. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. 0:32:55.480 --> 0:32:58.240 Help you've heard what his defense was, I'd been nice 0:32:58.320 --> 0:33:06.360 to some women. That just doesn't cut it. The mayor 0:33:06.760 --> 0:33:08.880 has to stand up on his record and what we 0:33:09.000 --> 0:33:12.160 need to know is exactly what's lurking out there. He 0:33:12.320 --> 0:33:15.960 has gotten some number of women, dozens who knows, to 0:33:16.160 --> 0:33:20.600 sign non disclosure agreements both for sexual harassment and for 0:33:20.800 --> 0:33:25.040 gender discrimination in the workplace. So, mister mayor, are you 0:33:25.200 --> 0:33:28.120 willing to release all of those women from those non 0:33:28.200 --> 0:33:31.920 disclosure agreements so we can hear their side of the story. 0:33:34.920 --> 0:33:39.160 We have a very few non disclosure agreements. How many? 0:33:39.280 --> 0:33:41.479 Let me finish? How many is there? None of them 0:33:41.520 --> 0:33:45.840 accused me of doing anything other than maybe they didn't 0:33:45.880 --> 0:33:48.360 like a joke I told, And let me just put 0:33:48.560 --> 0:33:51.960 and let me put. These agreements between two parties that 0:33:52.160 --> 0:33:54.680 wanted to keep it quiet, and that's up to them. 0:33:55.000 --> 0:33:58.120 They signed those agreements and we'll live with it. So wait, wait, 0:33:58.600 --> 0:34:01.160 media is all over this. I know we got to 0:34:01.240 --> 0:34:03.440 this topic earlier in the hour, but I meant to 0:34:03.480 --> 0:34:05.080 play that sound by free and I skiped over. That 0:34:05.200 --> 0:34:08.040 was where she really that was where she really went 0:34:08.160 --> 0:34:14.400 for it. Yeah, that was where Tomahawk went swinging. She 0:34:14.680 --> 0:34:17.759 decided that she was going to go after Bloomberg there, 0:34:17.920 --> 0:34:21.760 and he didn't sound particularly good at all in the defense. 0:34:21.920 --> 0:34:24.960 No question's like you know, helped people. They signed the agreements. 0:34:25.040 --> 0:34:28.760 And but let's also remember Bloomberg runs a huge company, 0:34:28.800 --> 0:34:30.640 and there's a lot of people that work in that company, 0:34:30.840 --> 0:34:33.560 and we know that he's made crude craft chokes. We 0:34:33.640 --> 0:34:35.839 also know that Bernie Sanders wrote some bizarre stuff about 0:34:35.880 --> 0:34:38.279 women back in the day. I just don't know how 0:34:38.360 --> 0:34:41.080 much anyone's really going to care about this. The media 0:34:41.160 --> 0:34:43.120 cares about it tremendously, and they're viewing this as the 0:34:43.239 --> 0:34:47.480 huge achilles heel that was exposed during the debate by Bloomberg. 0:34:47.600 --> 0:34:49.759 During the debate, When it comes from Bloomberg, I think 0:34:49.800 --> 0:34:51.480 that everyone will forget this one in a day or two, 0:34:52.719 --> 0:34:55.960 because that attack really only works on Republicans, you know, 0:34:56.000 --> 0:34:58.200 with mid Romney and his binders full of women. And 0:34:59.280 --> 0:35:02.759 I don't think that it as strong as the Democrat 0:35:02.920 --> 0:35:06.359 media likes to pretend it is, because they're also full 0:35:06.400 --> 0:35:08.759 of political correctness and wokeness and all the rest of it. 0:35:09.040 --> 0:35:10.600 I don't think they have a good gauge of what 0:35:10.760 --> 0:35:13.440 the damage is from that. But we'll see. We'll see 0:35:13.600 --> 0:35:15.759 that that was Bloomberg's worst moment, though I wonder if 0:35:15.840 --> 0:35:19.040 that was when it ever Oh everybody, I was wondering 0:35:19.120 --> 0:35:23.000 if Minnie Mike was gonna scurry off stage left, so 0:35:23.360 --> 0:35:27.319 we'll see.

All right, 0:35:45.120 --> 0:35:48.239 let's let's dive into this one together, my friend. Shall 0:35:48.320 --> 0:35:51.600 We know that the Libs are going to say this 0:35:51.920 --> 0:35:55.319 is not justice, and not because they think that Roger 0:35:55.400 --> 0:36:00.640 Stone is innocent or should get any mercy. They really 0:36:00.760 --> 0:36:02.600 convinced themselves that, you know, he should go to prison 0:36:02.680 --> 0:36:05.279 for like seven eight years federal prison. That's a long 0:36:05.360 --> 0:36:08.480 time to spend in prison. You know, think about your 0:36:08.520 --> 0:36:10.520 own life, go back in time eight years and think 0:36:10.520 --> 0:36:15.359 about everything that's transpired between now and then you spend 0:36:15.360 --> 0:36:17.840 all that in a sell for eight years. I mean, 0:36:17.880 --> 0:36:21.440 that's what Blagoyevitch just served. And he is a changed, 0:36:22.000 --> 0:36:24.680 changed man, that is for sure. He has been through 0:36:24.760 --> 0:36:29.839 some stuff. Roger Stone going to prison for over three 0:36:29.920 --> 0:36:33.399 years is in my opinion, which I guess I share 0:36:33.400 --> 0:36:35.719 with you freely because this is an opinion and analysis 0:36:35.800 --> 0:36:40.960 show is really is really a travesty. I mean This 0:36:41.200 --> 0:36:44.600 is a guy who if it weren't for the frenzy 0:36:44.680 --> 0:36:48.319 around Russia collusion and the hatred of Trump and all 0:36:48.360 --> 0:36:52.680 this other crazy stuff, this could have even been deferred prosecution. 0:36:52.760 --> 0:36:58.040 In my opinion, this could have been deferred prosecutions. When 0:36:58.040 --> 0:36:59.680 you go and you meet with the prosecutors, they're like, look, 0:36:59.680 --> 0:37:02.600 we've got you. We know you're guilty, and you're going 0:37:02.640 --> 0:37:04.759 to sign some stuff, but we're not gonna We're not 0:37:04.800 --> 0:37:07.640 gonna go forward with this. But if you do anything else, 0:37:08.200 --> 0:37:10.480 we retain the right to throw this in at you 0:37:10.840 --> 0:37:13.600 and the other thing that you do. So it's essentially 0:37:13.680 --> 0:37:15.000 like a warning. And by the way, I think that 0:37:15.040 --> 0:37:18.000 deferred prosecution for nonviolent offenders should be much more common 0:37:18.080 --> 0:37:20.200 than it is for a lot of a lot of 0:37:20.280 --> 0:37:23.920 financial crimes and things like this. I think that especially, 0:37:24.200 --> 0:37:26.680 you know, if you don't have a person who can 0:37:26.760 --> 0:37:29.800 sit in a courtroom and convince you that either he 0:37:30.000 --> 0:37:32.000 or she or you know, their counsel, convince you that 0:37:32.080 --> 0:37:34.799 there's a human being who has really been hurt by 0:37:34.920 --> 0:37:38.080 something that has been done, or the government can't sit 0:37:38.120 --> 0:37:40.080 down and tell you, you know, this was really important 0:37:40.120 --> 0:37:42.200 and this was really bad. This thing that was done 0:37:42.440 --> 0:37:47.600 to the government putting people in prison. You gotta wonder 0:37:47.719 --> 0:37:49.800 why exactly we're doing that. I mean, you got to 0:37:49.800 --> 0:37:54.640 ask yourself what are we doing here? So that's what 0:37:54.760 --> 0:37:58.800 I would say. Roger Stone, whom I've interviewed before and 0:37:58.880 --> 0:38:02.319 I think is a very interesting character, and I feel 0:38:02.360 --> 0:38:07.160 badly too, because you know, he's he's theatrical, and I 0:38:07.239 --> 0:38:08.759 think he got a little ahead of his skis on 0:38:08.840 --> 0:38:12.800 this one and didn't realize quite the viciousness of the 0:38:12.960 --> 0:38:15.320 people that he was dealing with with these special with 0:38:15.520 --> 0:38:19.440 the special counsel prosecutors, who were Democrat operatives, that's what 0:38:19.560 --> 0:38:21.520 they are. I mean, they came into this not looking 0:38:21.560 --> 0:38:24.080 for justice but to destroy Trump and everyone around him. 0:38:24.880 --> 0:38:28.960 And fortunately for Trump, he didn't do anything. And he's 0:38:28.960 --> 0:38:31.320 also the president, so they couldn't get him on anything 0:38:31.400 --> 0:38:35.480 that was a true violation, a true crime, and they 0:38:35.520 --> 0:38:39.480 couldn't even get him on a real process crime. Thankfully, 0:38:39.520 --> 0:38:42.439 the President did not testify to them because they would 0:38:42.440 --> 0:38:44.160 have tried to trip him up on some minor facto 0:38:44.239 --> 0:38:48.040 it And we know there's no sense of balance, there's 0:38:48.040 --> 0:38:50.239 no sense of justice between the left and the right 0:38:50.320 --> 0:38:52.839 anymore on these issues. If you're a Republican and you law, 0:38:52.920 --> 0:38:55.000 you go to prison. It's terrible, It's super important, and 0:38:55.040 --> 0:38:57.880 we should all condemn the person. If you're a Democrat 0:38:57.920 --> 0:39:00.960 and you lie, was it really a lie? Does it 0:39:01.080 --> 0:39:05.040 really matter? Did we really need to hear more about this? 0:39:05.360 --> 0:39:07.279 I think we should just move on, you know, like 0:39:07.440 --> 0:39:10.600 move on dot org an organization started to get us. 0:39:10.640 --> 0:39:13.040 You just move on past Bill Clinton lying under oath 0:39:13.120 --> 0:39:16.400 and being impeached and the whole thing. So you know, 0:39:16.520 --> 0:39:19.880 that's they play the move on game. Meanwhile, we have 0:39:20.000 --> 0:39:22.759 to look at this and say, people keep claiming that 0:39:22.920 --> 0:39:27.080 Trump is an authoritarian, and yet all I see are 0:39:27.600 --> 0:39:32.160 person after person who signed up to help Trump with 0:39:32.400 --> 0:39:38.320 is incredibly effective and an excellent administration, which is what 0:39:38.480 --> 0:39:40.719 I would say we have seen for now going into 0:39:40.719 --> 0:39:44.600 the fourth year of this Trump presidency, that people that 0:39:44.719 --> 0:39:48.560 went in to do that, they get crushed. They are 0:39:48.719 --> 0:39:54.960 put through the ringer, bankrupted, put in prison, prosecuted, investigate 0:39:55.080 --> 0:39:58.840 all these things happen to them. And Democrat after Democrat 0:39:58.920 --> 0:40:02.760 who either separate Trump Russia collusion stuff, breaks the law Hillary, 0:40:04.200 --> 0:40:08.200 or in the course of trying to destroy Trump, broke 0:40:08.320 --> 0:40:12.040 the law, did things that were unethical, did things that 0:40:12.400 --> 0:40:16.040 should be punished. We're told nope, sorry, there's there's some 0:40:16.400 --> 0:40:19.640 interpretation of the statute that's not that's not written in 0:40:19.680 --> 0:40:22.239 the words of the law. But we libs can find 0:40:22.320 --> 0:40:24.920 some way to you know, it's it's in there. It's 0:40:24.920 --> 0:40:29.040 an implied change to the statute because we say so, 0:40:29.239 --> 0:40:30.520 I mean, that's what they end up doing. This is 0:40:30.560 --> 0:40:33.160 what they did with Hillary in the emails, Hillary in 0:40:33.239 --> 0:40:36.400 the email situation. There's no way that you can believe 0:40:36.480 --> 0:40:39.880 the word reckless has any meaning when it comes to 0:40:39.920 --> 0:40:43.200 handling classified information and not think the Secretary of State 0:40:43.600 --> 0:40:48.160 using a private, unsecured email account for classified information storage 0:40:48.160 --> 0:40:50.880 and transfer is not reckless. Over one hundred counts or 0:40:50.960 --> 0:40:54.200 one hundred instances of that you cannot make if reckless 0:40:54.280 --> 0:40:57.040 is a word. With meeting that was reckless. But James 0:40:57.120 --> 0:40:59.680 Comey assures us that nobody would have been prosecuted under that. 0:41:00.560 --> 0:41:04.040 I ask you this, who committed a bigger offense, who 0:41:04.160 --> 0:41:08.680 put the country at greater risk, who showed a greater 0:41:08.760 --> 0:41:13.840 willingness to ignore, ignore the gravity of what the government's 0:41:13.880 --> 0:41:17.160 interests were. A sitting secretary of State who sets up 0:41:17.200 --> 0:41:20.400 a private email server allows for the trafficking of some 0:41:20.760 --> 0:41:24.360 very highly classified information on that email server, is sending 0:41:24.400 --> 0:41:28.040 that to other people on their emails, and then tries 0:41:28.080 --> 0:41:31.240 to cover it up, tries to destroy evidence, smashes hard drives, uses, 0:41:31.840 --> 0:41:36.320 these hard drive wipe programs, all of which all this 0:41:36.400 --> 0:41:40.840 information you should have been her subpoena. And that's what 0:41:40.920 --> 0:41:42.920 we found out of Hillary Clinton, that this had all happened. 0:41:42.960 --> 0:41:44.759 Do you look at Roger Stone, what exactly is the 0:41:45.000 --> 0:41:50.000 line to Congress? Which I'm sorry, Why was James Clapper 0:41:50.080 --> 0:41:52.520 able to say that there was no mass surveillance going 0:41:52.600 --> 0:41:55.879 on of a of Americans? How I is he able 0:41:55.920 --> 0:41:59.600 to say that? James Clapper legally could have said when 0:41:59.640 --> 0:42:02.320 asked Congress, I cannot discuss that in this venue, and 0:42:02.440 --> 0:42:04.960 he'd be fine. That's you're allowed to do that. That's 0:42:05.040 --> 0:42:09.840 protecting executive branch equities and classified information in a public forum. 0:42:10.760 --> 0:42:12.800 But are you allowed to lie to Congress because you 0:42:12.920 --> 0:42:15.560 think that you're doing that other thing? Where does that? 0:42:16.120 --> 0:42:18.359 Where does that stop and start? That's what I would 0:42:18.400 --> 0:42:22.280 want to know. Clapper's not getting prosecuted line to Congress. 0:42:22.320 --> 0:42:24.200 That's the charge that they're hitting Roger Stone with and 0:42:24.360 --> 0:42:28.080 witness tampering, you know, Stone was being an idiot. You know, 0:42:28.160 --> 0:42:29.919 it was dumb. It was a dumb thing to First 0:42:29.960 --> 0:42:31.880 of all, he's an idiot because you never put these 0:42:31.960 --> 0:42:34.480 things in writing, all right, Not that I'm trying to 0:42:34.520 --> 0:42:36.800 help you guys with your witness tab break, but you 0:42:36.880 --> 0:42:40.680 never text someone or DM them anything that could, under 0:42:40.719 --> 0:42:44.840 any circumstances be used by a lawyer a prosecutor against you. 0:42:45.560 --> 0:42:48.000 Do it over the phone. Now, that wouldn't have saved Blagoyevich, 0:42:48.680 --> 0:42:51.440 but at least you got a chance. If you're putting it, 0:42:51.520 --> 0:42:54.719 if you're typing it out, then then you're going to 0:42:54.760 --> 0:42:58.480 be in an interrupt spot. But the two tiered justice 0:42:58.520 --> 0:43:01.360 system at work once again here what the Rogerstone sentencing 0:43:01.560 --> 0:43:06.920 is is troubling. And Democrats like this. They're not they 0:43:07.440 --> 0:43:10.799 don't feel icky about any of this. They think that, yeah, 0:43:11.120 --> 0:43:16.520 it's totally fair that Paul Manafort was sentenced to not 0:43:16.640 --> 0:43:19.080 not only a lengthy prison term, but was put in 0:43:19.280 --> 0:43:24.960 solitary confinement by this judge, Amy Amy Berman Jackson, the 0:43:25.080 --> 0:43:29.320 same judge overseeing the Rogerstone trial put Manafort in solitary 0:43:30.200 --> 0:43:33.520 You see, this is where the swamp is a much 0:43:33.600 --> 0:43:35.960 more important part of the story than people realize you 0:43:36.120 --> 0:43:42.560 have in DC some swampy judges, swampy prosecutors, and a 0:43:42.680 --> 0:43:47.840 swampy jury pool. Because Washington, d c. Has become a 0:43:48.160 --> 0:43:53.840 stronghold of the left. It votes ninety five percent Democrat 0:43:54.400 --> 0:43:58.200 in presidential elections. It's not a place where if you're 0:43:58.239 --> 0:44:00.279 associated with Trump, you're gonna get a fair trial and 0:44:00.400 --> 0:44:03.520 anything having to do with the administration. That's where you're 0:44:03.560 --> 0:44:05.520 going to get this trial. And maybe some of it 0:44:05.560 --> 0:44:08.239 will be in the Eastern District of Virginia and Alexandria, 0:44:08.280 --> 0:44:10.799 but you're going to get it in the DC Federal Court. 0:44:11.960 --> 0:44:16.120 So this judge already showed that there's an animus against 0:44:16.120 --> 0:44:19.120 Trump by by putting Rogers, I mean Roger Stone, Paul Menaford, 0:44:19.160 --> 0:44:23.960 and solitary confinement. That's that's crazy, that's crazy. We should 0:44:24.000 --> 0:44:30.480 all be able to recognize that as insane. But she did. 0:44:31.400 --> 0:44:34.440 She did. They also sent remember this, the FBI did 0:44:34.520 --> 0:44:37.000 a no knock pre five am or pre dawn, I 0:44:37.040 --> 0:44:41.440 should say, raid on Manaford's house, the same thing if 0:44:41.440 --> 0:44:45.600 they ended up doing to Roger Stone. Does anyone think 0:44:45.640 --> 0:44:48.040 that that would have happened to any of the Democrats 0:44:48.520 --> 0:44:52.040 that have been involved did anyone show up with long 0:44:52.120 --> 0:44:55.440 guns to James Comey's house or McCabe's house and say, 0:44:55.520 --> 0:44:59.680 you know you're under arrest. Nope, there's a pattern here. 0:44:59.760 --> 0:45:03.560 They say. Trump is the authoritarian, but authoritarians don't allow 0:45:03.680 --> 0:45:07.600 people in their orbit to get destroyed by the government 0:45:07.960 --> 0:45:12.480 that the authoritarian is presiding over because the opposition to 0:45:12.640 --> 0:45:17.600 that authoritarian doesn't like his people. This is the This 0:45:17.760 --> 0:45:20.160 is like saying, oh, you know, Trump is the king 0:45:20.440 --> 0:45:24.160 and he lets all of his courtiers just go get 0:45:24.440 --> 0:45:28.440 thrown in the deepest, darkest dungeon by the royal prosecutor, 0:45:29.400 --> 0:45:32.680 because that makes no sense. Right, If you're the king, 0:45:32.760 --> 0:45:34.719 if you're so powerful and you get whatever you want, 0:45:34.920 --> 0:45:36.480 you're not going to allow the people who work for you, 0:45:36.520 --> 0:45:39.120 who are your close advisors, that you care about, that 0:45:39.239 --> 0:45:41.200 you like, that you have relationship. Now Stone doesn't really 0:45:41.200 --> 0:45:43.359 fit in that category, but he's considered a long time 0:45:43.440 --> 0:45:48.120 Trump advisor. You're not going to let them get destroyed 0:45:48.160 --> 0:45:50.239 by the government that you have power over him. The 0:45:50.280 --> 0:45:53.120 President said that he's the chief law enforcement officer, and 0:45:53.200 --> 0:45:56.120 there was all this hahaha from stupid journalist because journalists 0:45:56.200 --> 0:46:01.080 now journalists and are all all just concerned with virtue signaling, wokeness, 0:46:01.320 --> 0:46:03.359 what their Twitter game is like, and what they look 0:46:03.400 --> 0:46:07.520 like on MSNBC, and you know, that's that's what it's 0:46:07.520 --> 0:46:09.840 all about. What other journalists think of them as the 0:46:09.920 --> 0:46:13.480 prime motivation for what most of their work is. It's 0:46:13.520 --> 0:46:17.200 not being learned, it's not being particularly insightful, or it's 0:46:17.200 --> 0:46:21.800 certainly not being wise. It's a vapid and create a 0:46:22.040 --> 0:46:25.560 vapid profession. And the worst are the TV journalists. I 0:46:25.600 --> 0:46:27.359 mean they're they're actually the worst because most of them 0:46:27.400 --> 0:46:29.600 are just you know, I'm just rating off our prompt ard, 0:46:29.600 --> 0:46:34.480 I don't know anything. A bunch of idiots. So Roger 0:46:34.560 --> 0:46:38.520 Stone's going away. I mean this under the circumstances, I 0:46:38.680 --> 0:46:41.000 think I probably said on the show, although I don't 0:46:41.000 --> 0:46:43.160 want to start saying I've made predictions that I didn't make. 0:46:43.520 --> 0:46:46.080 There are some other radio hosts who do that. I 0:46:46.360 --> 0:46:48.919 try to keep it real. I think that I said 0:46:49.120 --> 0:46:50.719 it would be I've definitely said to other people that 0:46:50.760 --> 0:46:52.960 it would be about three years. Two to three years 0:46:53.000 --> 0:46:55.680 sounded about right to me for what the sentence would be. 0:46:56.080 --> 0:46:58.440 That means he's serving. Remember there's no parole, he's serving 0:46:58.480 --> 0:47:03.680 the full sentence. He's going to go away unless there's 0:47:03.719 --> 0:47:06.000 another possibility here. And you all know where I'm going 0:47:06.080 --> 0:47:10.840 on this one. Who wants to play pardon Roger Stone? 0:47:12.120 --> 0:47:15.600 That could be next. And I think that I think 0:47:15.640 --> 0:47:18.040 that a pardon would be I will say, I think 0:47:18.080 --> 0:47:21.440 a pardon would send the wrong message. You know Stone, 0:47:22.120 --> 0:47:24.400 what he did was buffoonish and um and I you 0:47:24.480 --> 0:47:26.399 know this is where this is where being a real 0:47:26.520 --> 0:47:28.919 human being that cares about other human beings and having 0:47:28.960 --> 0:47:32.160 a sense of justice matters. You know, I don't want 0:47:32.320 --> 0:47:35.439 I don't think Jesse's small Let, for example, despite all 0:47:35.560 --> 0:47:39.600 of his vanity and stupidity and duplicity and everything else. 0:47:39.760 --> 0:47:41.400 All right, people are rust you small. Let you go 0:47:41.440 --> 0:47:44.960 to prison for fifteen years, Jesse small Let should you know, 0:47:45.120 --> 0:47:47.680 probably have to spend you know, two weeks in county 0:47:47.760 --> 0:47:51.560 jail and one hundred thousand dollars fine, but admit his 0:47:51.680 --> 0:47:55.080 guilt and apologize public. I mean, that's that's getting to 0:47:55.200 --> 0:47:57.440 what I think justice would be for the whole thing. 0:47:57.560 --> 0:47:59.880 Oh and of course, pay the whatever the fees were 0:48:00.000 --> 0:48:01.840 that were run up by the City of Chicago for 0:48:01.880 --> 0:48:04.319 the hoaks. You should pay that. Maybe spent a week 0:48:04.400 --> 0:48:07.040 or two in a you know, county lock up. Nothing 0:48:07.080 --> 0:48:10.480 too scary, and you have to admit that he's guilty. 0:48:10.680 --> 0:48:12.680 I mean, that's what I think would be. That's a 0:48:12.800 --> 0:48:15.440 fair punishment, right, I'm not saying that people shouldn't be 0:48:15.480 --> 0:48:19.480 punished at all. That's a fair punishment. Roger Stone. If 0:48:19.560 --> 0:48:21.040 I were in charge of this and I felt like 0:48:21.080 --> 0:48:23.279 he had to be prosecuted, I would say, Okay, look, 0:48:23.320 --> 0:48:25.400 we're gonna we're gonna ask for no jail time, but 0:48:25.400 --> 0:48:28.120 you're gonna have a felony on your record, and you know, 0:48:28.200 --> 0:48:30.120 don't ever if you do anything else, we're sending you 0:48:30.200 --> 0:48:32.279 away and we're gonna give you We're gonna give you 0:48:32.360 --> 0:48:34.399 the upper end of whatever the guidelines are of that offense, 0:48:34.440 --> 0:48:36.719 because we're gonna take this into account. That seems to 0:48:36.840 --> 0:48:40.080 me to be fair. Nine years is crazy for what 0:48:40.320 --> 0:48:41.640 I mean, that's just I mean, the fact that that 0:48:41.719 --> 0:48:44.399 was even raised by these prosecutors just goes to show 0:48:44.440 --> 0:48:48.000 you their Democrat, their Democrat scalphunters and they're trying to 0:48:48.000 --> 0:48:50.320 take down anybody near Trump. And that was bar. Attorney 0:48:50.360 --> 0:48:54.160 General Barr was absolutely correct to bring to rein that 0:48:54.280 --> 0:48:56.919 in bring that back a bit and Okay, so three 0:48:57.360 --> 0:49:02.200 three plus years. It's harsh. It's you know, it's harsh, 0:49:02.239 --> 0:49:04.880 but it's about what I would have expected under the circumstances. 0:49:06.480 --> 0:49:08.960 He should get a new trial if he wants one, 0:49:09.000 --> 0:49:11.560 because the jury foreman is an anti Trumper. This brings 0:49:11.600 --> 0:49:14.120 you back to the swamp situation of DC, where if 0:49:14.120 --> 0:49:16.440 you're a Trump associate, you can't get a fair trial 0:49:16.640 --> 0:49:21.400 in the People's Republic of Washington, DC. You can't everyone 0:49:21.440 --> 0:49:23.520 in DC. And this is one thing about that place. 0:49:23.560 --> 0:49:25.040 I'll say, you know, I'm here in New York City 0:49:25.200 --> 0:49:27.680 and I'm on the subway four times a day now, 0:49:28.200 --> 0:49:30.319 so I'm spending a lot of time, you know, out 0:49:30.360 --> 0:49:32.839 and about in the city in contact with all kinds 0:49:32.840 --> 0:49:34.080 of folks. And the thing I like about in New 0:49:34.160 --> 0:49:36.200 York is that, yeah, this place is full of Libs, 0:49:36.520 --> 0:49:38.839 but there's some conservatives hiding here and there. It's full 0:49:38.880 --> 0:49:41.440 of Libs, but everyone's just in the hustle trying to 0:49:41.520 --> 0:49:44.000 make money to pay the outrageous rents here and feed 0:49:44.080 --> 0:49:46.360 themselves in their families, and they're focused more on that. 0:49:47.239 --> 0:49:49.160 In DC, it's a lot of you know, what are 0:49:49.200 --> 0:49:51.600 your politics, sir? It's like the first question people will 0:49:51.600 --> 0:49:54.320 ask you. It's much more focused on it for obvious reasons. 0:49:55.400 --> 0:49:58.920 And that also means that people feel very connected to 0:49:59.040 --> 0:50:02.880 their their political affiliation and if they have the opportunity 0:50:02.920 --> 0:50:04.880 to be a hero to their peer group by crushing 0:50:05.000 --> 0:50:11.000 somebody who's even associated with Donald Trump, DC natives love 0:50:11.200 --> 0:50:13.920 to do that. That makes them very happy, very excited. 0:50:14.120 --> 0:50:16.040 And that's why the foreman on the Roger Stone jury 0:50:16.120 --> 0:50:19.040 trial is just an indicative of a broader problem there. 0:50:19.080 --> 0:50:21.680 And Stone should get a new trial, but does he 0:50:21.800 --> 0:50:24.040 want one? Is he really going to get a much 0:50:24.080 --> 0:50:27.040 better sentence from another judge? Does he want to go 0:50:27.120 --> 0:50:28.759 through this again? Does he want to go through the 0:50:28.800 --> 0:50:33.719 expense again? And I don't know, but Judge Jackson here 0:50:33.840 --> 0:50:35.680 just decided to go forward with us. He doesn't care. 0:50:35.800 --> 0:50:37.719 He's like, yeah, we're gonna do the sentencing. We're not 0:50:37.760 --> 0:50:39.799 even going to look into this form in situation. We're 0:50:39.840 --> 0:50:42.160 just going to go forward. So I think that there's 0:50:42.200 --> 0:50:45.880 a clear bias and one of the they talk so 0:50:46.000 --> 0:50:48.799 much on the left about our sacred institutions and our democracy. 0:50:50.120 --> 0:50:52.759 It's a reminder for us that all this stuff, this 0:50:53.000 --> 0:50:56.040 stuff only works. You know, this government we have only 0:50:56.120 --> 0:50:59.839 works if we can agree on some very basic thing, 0:51:00.120 --> 0:51:03.600 is like the plain meaning of language, particularly in statutes, 0:51:03.640 --> 0:51:05.880 but the plain meaning of language that words do have 0:51:06.000 --> 0:51:08.279 meaning that we can all understand that it doesn't change 0:51:08.320 --> 0:51:10.800 just based upon what someone wants it to be, and 0:51:11.080 --> 0:51:15.560 that respecting the system means respecting it when outcomes happen 0:51:15.920 --> 0:51:20.040 that you don't like and still saying, Okay, I didn't 0:51:20.080 --> 0:51:23.160 get what I wanted, but it was within this say, 0:51:23.239 --> 0:51:26.120 within the framework of what our government is supposed to do. 0:51:27.239 --> 0:51:30.640 Libs have abandoned that. They've abandoned it whatever, whatever it is, 0:51:30.680 --> 0:51:33.480 whether it's the electoral College or Supreme Court judges, or 0:51:33.560 --> 0:51:35.680 you name it. If they're not getting what they want, 0:51:35.840 --> 0:51:38.200 they want to change the rules or scrap the whole 0:51:38.200 --> 0:51:43.560 thing and do something else. That's their approach. You're in 0:51:43.640 --> 0:51:47.200 the freedom hunt. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. 0:51:51.080 --> 0:51:53.040 Something else that I don't want to leave off the 0:51:53.120 --> 0:51:56.759 table here, my friends, we were told for the last 0:51:56.800 --> 0:51:58.839 week or so that the Attorney General of the United 0:51:58.880 --> 0:52:03.680 States should resolve you must resign, sir. We were told that, 0:52:04.280 --> 0:52:06.120 we were told that he was in Trump's pocket, that 0:52:06.200 --> 0:52:10.480 he was destroying the office of the Attorney General with 0:52:10.600 --> 0:52:14.240 his corruption, and yet this judge, who was no friend 0:52:14.280 --> 0:52:18.680 of Republicans or Trump. Well, that's clear. This judge gave 0:52:18.719 --> 0:52:22.680 a sentence that was right in line with the reduced 0:52:23.080 --> 0:52:28.000 request from the DOJ. So was Attorney General bar right 0:52:28.040 --> 0:52:33.200 all along? Yeah? Yeah he was. But what do you 0:52:33.239 --> 0:52:35.000 think is going to happen now? For all the libs 0:52:35.040 --> 0:52:36.840 out there, all the people in media, look oh the 0:52:36.880 --> 0:52:39.120 Attorney general. Look how he intervened and he did all 0:52:39.120 --> 0:52:42.040 this terrible stuff. So what really happened now that we 0:52:42.080 --> 0:52:46.040 have the full story is the Attorney General had people 0:52:46.080 --> 0:52:51.440 who are his employees at the Department of Justice shift around. Remember, 0:52:51.480 --> 0:52:54.640 the judge can impose whatever sentence she wants, right, the 0:52:54.760 --> 0:52:59.120 judge can say it's more, it's less. This judge just 0:52:59.400 --> 0:53:03.040 happened to give a sentence right in the bullseye of 0:53:03.160 --> 0:53:07.120 the reduced request from DJ. Is that because is a 0:53:07.239 --> 0:53:12.680 Trump bought two or was that realistic? And therefore the 0:53:12.760 --> 0:53:18.759 initial request from the Russia collusion deranged prosecutors that ask 0:53:18.880 --> 0:53:22.320 for seven to nine years was outrageous. Now we know 0:53:22.440 --> 0:53:27.360 the answer. Who looks smarter those of us who supported 0:53:27.440 --> 0:53:30.200 the reduced sentencing request and said that Bill Barr had 0:53:30.239 --> 0:53:32.920 done nothing wrong, or the people that are saying, oh, 0:53:33.000 --> 0:53:36.120 the Republic is in flames because look what they're bailing 0:53:36.200 --> 0:53:38.799 out another Trump Ally, all that noise you heard from 0:53:38.800 --> 0:53:43.360 people in the media, you're just partisan morons. Thanks for 0:53:43.480 --> 0:53:47.160 listening to The Bus Sesson Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe 0:53:47.200 --> 0:53:50.680 on Apple podcasts, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever you get 0:53:50.719 --> 0:53:56.520 your podcasts. I think Internet culture can often be very toxic, 0:53:56.680 --> 0:54:00.040 and whether we are cognizance of it or not, it 0:54:00.160 --> 0:54:03.720 nearly always concentrates on women, people of color, were people, 0:54:04.960 --> 0:54:08.640 and we experience the brunt of it. And I think, 0:54:09.360 --> 0:54:13.000 you know, I think that to a certain extent, you know, 0:54:13.440 --> 0:54:18.640 we have to always rejects hate, reject vitriol, and denounce 0:54:18.760 --> 0:54:23.040 that kind of behavior. Also, you know, we also know 0:54:23.320 --> 0:54:26.520 the amount of anonymous activity that happens on the Internet, 0:54:26.920 --> 0:54:30.560 and that simply is difficult. It is difficult to control 0:54:30.600 --> 0:54:34.800 when you have like a you know, a a Twitter 0:54:34.880 --> 0:54:37.200 handle with a bunch of numbers on it, with two 0:54:37.280 --> 0:54:40.719 followers that are lobbying vitriol at you. We don't know 0:54:40.840 --> 0:54:42.880 where that comes from, but I know that it doesn't 0:54:42.960 --> 0:54:45.359 cost on enough paint to try and stop it. Yeah, 0:54:45.400 --> 0:54:48.319 I think he works very hard. I think we send 0:54:48.400 --> 0:54:51.800 out so we send out messaging emails and you know 0:54:51.880 --> 0:54:54.480 what it's I've been subject to a lot of this 0:54:54.560 --> 0:54:56.960 stuff from all sorts of the all sorts of pockets 0:54:57.160 --> 0:55:01.200 from the Internet. I some CBP officers targeted me on 0:55:01.320 --> 0:55:03.600 Facebook for attacks when I want to visit the border. 0:55:04.880 --> 0:55:08.319 This is aoc on the Bernie bros. Who have been 0:55:08.400 --> 0:55:13.600 getting more attention recently because other Democrats are realizing, Wow, 0:55:13.640 --> 0:55:16.480 Bernie has a lot of psychopath supporters, a lot of them. 0:55:17.760 --> 0:55:20.440 Some of this came out when James O'Keefe did his 0:55:20.520 --> 0:55:24.680 Project Veritas videos and you had people talking about rolling 0:55:24.719 --> 0:55:27.279 out the guillotine and how you know, we're going to 0:55:27.320 --> 0:55:31.839 eat the rich, and that was of course dismissed as 0:55:32.040 --> 0:55:37.719 just the rantings of a few unimportant campaign employees and 0:55:37.920 --> 0:55:42.440 that really, you know, Bernie is all about love and 0:55:42.560 --> 0:55:48.160 rejects hate. This is one of the constant Democrat refrains 0:55:48.239 --> 0:55:53.120 that I find the most troubling because it's so untrue, 0:55:53.360 --> 0:55:57.080 and yet they believe it. They really think that they 0:55:57.120 --> 0:56:02.160 are not hateful, even though they will direct at the 0:56:02.239 --> 0:56:06.120 present of the United States the following accusations that he 0:56:06.320 --> 0:56:08.279 is and you know that I'm not exaggerating any of this. 0:56:08.480 --> 0:56:11.200 This has all been said by prominent voices on the left, 0:56:11.520 --> 0:56:15.319 not repudiated. People don't shout down other Democrats and other 0:56:15.440 --> 0:56:18.120 leftist when they say these things. They've called the president 0:56:18.640 --> 0:56:24.759 a traitor, a white nationalist, a racist, a rapist, demented, 0:56:24.920 --> 0:56:29.480 like actually out of his mind? What am I leaving? Oh, 0:56:29.520 --> 0:56:32.360 of course, corrupt, and all these other things that are lesser. 0:56:32.560 --> 0:56:35.000 But when you're calling people things like a traitor and 0:56:35.120 --> 0:56:38.440 a rapist and you have no evidence for either of 0:56:38.560 --> 0:56:41.879 those things, no evidence to a reasonable person for either 0:56:41.960 --> 0:56:44.800 of those things at all. I mean, if you believe 0:56:44.960 --> 0:56:48.880 like sweat Nick about Kavanaugh, well then you'll believe anything. 0:56:48.920 --> 0:56:50.640 And you're not very bright, and you could believe that, 0:56:50.760 --> 0:56:54.560 you know, I had dinner with Elvis last night. But people, 0:56:54.800 --> 0:56:57.120 unfortunately this country, do believe stuff like that. A lot 0:56:57.160 --> 0:57:00.840 of Democrats do believe things that are quite viously false 0:57:01.160 --> 0:57:04.680 and still think they're very bright and very sophisticated. That's 0:57:04.680 --> 0:57:06.680 a big part of being a Democrat, as you're sophisticated 0:57:06.760 --> 0:57:11.040 and you're thinking, even though you believe that you know 0:57:11.160 --> 0:57:15.840 Anderson Cooper and Chris Cuomo and Don Lemon and who's that. 0:57:15.960 --> 0:57:18.640 Who's that guy? I was gonna say, Phil Donahue, that's 0:57:18.640 --> 0:57:22.000 an old talk show. Who's the Irish guy on Forgetting? 0:57:22.040 --> 0:57:26.600 They know, stop the hammering? That guy on Stop the 0:57:26.800 --> 0:57:29.880 hammer You know he's the guy from Boston. Anyway, he's 0:57:29.920 --> 0:57:32.760 on MSNBC. I can't remember his name right now. Chris o'donald, 0:57:32.800 --> 0:57:35.760 Lawrence O'Donnell. That's gonna say Chris O'Donnell. He was in 0:57:35.840 --> 0:57:37.880 a very bad Batman movie back in the day. For 0:57:37.960 --> 0:57:39.880 those of you who have seen some of the bad 0:57:39.920 --> 0:57:44.400 Batman movies, they're almost worth watching just because they're so terrible. 0:57:44.520 --> 0:57:46.800 The ones that were in between the Michael Keaton era 0:57:46.960 --> 0:57:49.320 and the Christian Bale era, there were some Batman movies 0:57:49.440 --> 0:57:54.840 that even even they wish they could forget. So they think, 0:57:55.080 --> 0:57:57.360 I know, I got diverted there for a moment. They 0:57:57.440 --> 0:58:00.720 think that the left thinks that they don't don't hate people, 0:58:00.720 --> 0:58:03.560 but they say these things about Trump, and they also 0:58:03.640 --> 0:58:06.240 say that if you support Trump, you are therefore supporting 0:58:06.320 --> 0:58:08.080 these things, and so it's fair to say these things 0:58:08.120 --> 0:58:11.040 about you too. And I mean, I can tell you 0:58:11.680 --> 0:58:15.400 that liberals love to whine about the mean things said 0:58:15.440 --> 0:58:17.600 about them on the Internet, and they claim that it's 0:58:17.640 --> 0:58:23.240 because they fall into marginalized groups whatever, whichever specific marginalized group. 0:58:23.320 --> 0:58:24.560 And I can see and tell you, I mean, the 0:58:24.640 --> 0:58:28.000 things that far left wing people right and say to 0:58:28.160 --> 0:58:33.160 me on the Internet are are beyond appalling. I mean, 0:58:33.200 --> 0:58:35.680 it's a combination of disturbing and really sad at the 0:58:35.720 --> 0:58:38.040 same time. And I don't even get the worst of it, 0:58:38.200 --> 0:58:41.240 because I mean, I have I have friends againservative media 0:58:41.280 --> 0:58:43.840 who they just they're numb to all the death threats 0:58:43.840 --> 0:58:45.480 at this point. They're not just death threats against them, 0:58:45.520 --> 0:58:49.080 but death threats against their families and people are completely insane. 0:58:49.600 --> 0:58:51.520 And I think that there should be much more stringent 0:58:51.640 --> 0:58:56.760 enforcement of uh, you know, communicating an interstate threat against somebody, 0:58:56.840 --> 0:58:58.800 and I think that that should be something that's taken 0:58:58.880 --> 0:59:03.880 really seriously. Unfortunately it's not usually taken very seriously. But 0:59:04.080 --> 0:59:07.520 for liberals to claim in the current environment that they 0:59:07.800 --> 0:59:13.600 reject hate, their entire platform right now is really about 0:59:14.160 --> 0:59:18.040 believing that everyone who supports Trump is hateful, and they 0:59:18.080 --> 0:59:19.960 don't see how that is in and of itself a 0:59:20.080 --> 0:59:23.800 hateful position. They don't care that many people that support 0:59:23.840 --> 0:59:27.120 Trump just wanted an end to politicians talking to us 0:59:27.160 --> 0:59:30.560 all like we're robots. They don't care that. A lot 0:59:30.600 --> 0:59:32.760 of people who support Trump just think that we should 0:59:32.800 --> 0:59:36.600 have national sovereignty and a secure border. And the American people, 0:59:37.120 --> 0:59:40.400 as seen through their legislature that does have laws that 0:59:40.520 --> 0:59:43.280 say that this is not okay. The American people should 0:59:43.320 --> 0:59:46.240 have a say in who comes and goes from their country, 0:59:47.200 --> 0:59:50.160 and the laws are the way that you can enact that. 0:59:51.000 --> 0:59:54.280 Enforcing those laws, or that you just want to robust economy, 0:59:54.360 --> 0:59:56.600 or you want someone to stand up to China and trade. No, 0:59:56.800 --> 0:59:59.560 they tell their followers. The Democrat narrative is that if 0:59:59.560 --> 1:00:03.640 you support or Trump, you are in bedwidth effectively a 1:00:03.840 --> 1:00:07.439 white nationalist, a neo Nazi, and they think that there's 1:00:07.480 --> 1:00:11.480 not going to be really severe long term consequences from this. 1:00:11.640 --> 1:00:16.560 They think that they're the ones that reject hate. Here, 1:00:16.680 --> 1:00:20.600 by the way, is how Bernie Sanders responds. He responded 1:00:20.600 --> 1:00:23.200 the last night of the debates age about the Bernie Bros. 1:00:23.200 --> 1:00:26.480 Who are notorious. I mean, for example, the group on 1:00:26.560 --> 1:00:31.160 the internet, the Young Turks. Some of the worst people 1:00:31.200 --> 1:00:35.480 that are in media work for that organization, and they're 1:00:35.520 --> 1:00:38.600 Bernie Bros. I mean, they're they're Bernie people. Some of 1:00:38.640 --> 1:00:41.160 the nastiest libs you'll come across on Twitter are are 1:00:41.200 --> 1:00:43.600 Bernie people. And I don't think that's an accident. I 1:00:43.680 --> 1:00:48.400 think it's because Bernie Sanders appeals to envy and the 1:00:49.920 --> 1:00:57.960 a combination of revolutionary sanctimoniousness and revolutionary nihilism, like tear 1:00:58.040 --> 1:01:00.360 it all down, because we are the saviors we've been 1:01:00.400 --> 1:01:02.240 waiting for, and if you get in a way, we'll 1:01:02.280 --> 1:01:05.320 crush you, because we're going to bring about utopia. That 1:01:05.680 --> 1:01:10.880 standard socialist thinking stretching back for now over one hundred 1:01:10.920 --> 1:01:14.240 and fifty years, they've always thought that anybody who wasn't 1:01:14.280 --> 1:01:19.800 with the program was an enemy of the class based 1:01:19.960 --> 1:01:23.240 warfare that they want to engage in, and that so 1:01:23.360 --> 1:01:26.240 that's not really new or different anyway. Bernie Sanders, though, 1:01:26.280 --> 1:01:28.120 in confronted with this, I thought this was really interesting. 1:01:28.640 --> 1:01:32.040 Just shows you the depth of some of the delusions 1:01:32.080 --> 1:01:34.280 that Democrats still hold to, some of the depth of 1:01:34.360 --> 1:01:37.800 the narrative that they still cling to and believe about 1:01:37.840 --> 1:01:41.480 Russia collusion. Here is what Bernie said about his Bernie 1:01:41.560 --> 1:01:44.200 Brows being a bunch of psychos that harass people online. 1:01:44.200 --> 1:01:47.640 Play twelve. Let me say something else about this not 1:01:47.840 --> 1:01:52.080 being too paranoid. All of us remember two thousand and sixteen, 1:01:52.880 --> 1:01:55.720 and what we meant, what we remember is efforts by 1:01:55.800 --> 1:01:58.440 Russians and others to try to interfere in our election 1:01:58.600 --> 1:02:02.480 and divide us. I'm not saying that's happening, but it 1:02:02.520 --> 1:02:05.080 would not shock me. I saw some of those tweets 1:02:05.200 --> 1:02:08.600 regarding the Culinary Workers Union. I mean, I'm not saying 1:02:08.680 --> 1:02:11.520 that the Russians. You know, we're pretending to be my supporters, 1:02:12.120 --> 1:02:18.520 but I'm not saying that this is This is now though, 1:02:19.200 --> 1:02:23.560 the the end result of the media telling everybody for 1:02:23.680 --> 1:02:26.200 three years in this country that the Russians stole the election, 1:02:26.240 --> 1:02:28.919 and you know, the Russian Russian hackers are basically hiding 1:02:28.960 --> 1:02:30.840 under your bed at night. You should be terrified about 1:02:30.840 --> 1:02:33.320 what the Russians are up to all the time. Russians 1:02:33.360 --> 1:02:36.160 are stealing our democracy, Russians are doing this, Russians are 1:02:36.200 --> 1:02:41.440 doing that. Just just shocking stuff for a presidential contender 1:02:41.520 --> 1:02:45.320 to say. But they will continue to say this. They 1:02:45.400 --> 1:02:48.160 will stick to this script because otherwise they'd have to 1:02:48.600 --> 1:02:54.680 deal with is the Democratic Party increasingly embracing hateful politics. 1:02:55.440 --> 1:02:58.040 I know we're a very polarized, very divisive time. But 1:02:58.160 --> 1:03:00.560 the people that I know who are Trump supporters, they're 1:03:00.600 --> 1:03:04.440 strong defenders of Trump, but they want things to continue 1:03:04.520 --> 1:03:07.040 in this country, or they support things that would be 1:03:07.120 --> 1:03:10.040 good for all Americans, you know, that would actually be 1:03:10.360 --> 1:03:14.040 objectively helpful for the American people. I know a lot 1:03:14.080 --> 1:03:17.200 of Libs that think that policies that at least half 1:03:17.240 --> 1:03:21.040 the country dramatically don't agree with should be rammed down 1:03:21.080 --> 1:03:23.240 our throat by the force of government because it's the 1:03:23.360 --> 1:03:27.000 right thing for them to do. They say, that feels 1:03:27.000 --> 1:03:29.480 a little bit different, And I know that this is 1:03:29.480 --> 1:03:31.320 all about you know, where you sit is where you stand, 1:03:31.400 --> 1:03:34.440 and there are differences here of perspective. And maybe if 1:03:34.480 --> 1:03:36.040 I were a leftist, I would think that the right 1:03:36.120 --> 1:03:38.880 was trying to do this. I think that that's just 1:03:39.040 --> 1:03:41.840 not really seeing what has happened where the Democratic Party. 1:03:42.000 --> 1:03:46.120 Trump has run a presidency that is largely in line 1:03:46.160 --> 1:03:51.120 with his style. Is different, his tone, his messaging, but 1:03:51.400 --> 1:03:57.240 his actual implementation as president has been well in line 1:03:57.320 --> 1:03:59.840 with what you would consider to be traditional GOP norms. 1:04:00.480 --> 1:04:03.920 There's really very little that he's done that is outside 1:04:03.960 --> 1:04:06.960 Remember the secure Fence active I think it was two 1:04:07.000 --> 1:04:11.160 thousand and six was bipartisan. Both parties in Congress said yeah, 1:04:11.160 --> 1:04:12.720 we should build a fence, and then they backed off it. 1:04:12.840 --> 1:04:14.760 Now building a fense makes you, you know what till 1:04:14.840 --> 1:04:19.320 of the hun Amy Klobischer doesn't know who that is, 1:04:19.360 --> 1:04:22.880 by the way, you know, now now doing these things 1:04:22.920 --> 1:04:26.840 that used to be considered bipartisan, it makes you a 1:04:27.000 --> 1:04:29.400 terrible person. Well why is that? It's because the Democratic 1:04:29.440 --> 1:04:31.840 Party has shifted so far left? Why is James Carville 1:04:33.120 --> 1:04:35.160 going on TV? I mean people say it's because he 1:04:35.160 --> 1:04:37.000 wants to be relevant. I think Carville is happy, you know, 1:04:37.080 --> 1:04:39.440 hanging out in New Orleans and doing whatever he's doing 1:04:39.520 --> 1:04:41.800 down there. But why is he going on TV? And 1:04:41.800 --> 1:04:44.120 the Democratic Parties lost its mind? And Bernie Sanders, as 1:04:44.160 --> 1:04:46.720 a socialist should not be presis the United States? Because 1:04:46.760 --> 1:04:48.600 they have gone they've gone nuts as a party. I 1:04:48.640 --> 1:04:54.320 mean they've they've gone far, far, too too long in 1:04:54.400 --> 1:04:58.840 one direction. And so that's now where where I think 1:04:58.920 --> 1:05:03.080 we need to understand. Countries go through periods where a 1:05:03.120 --> 1:05:05.320 political party, you know, we did. I'm not saying we're 1:05:05.320 --> 1:05:07.120 fighting a civil war now or anything that's gonna happen, 1:05:07.120 --> 1:05:08.520 but I mean we fought a civil war. You look 1:05:08.560 --> 1:05:11.480 in history, countries where there are political parties and you 1:05:11.560 --> 1:05:15.200 think that it's a vibrant democracy, they can go bad, 1:05:15.400 --> 1:05:17.920 and they can go bad quickly. And some political parties 1:05:18.520 --> 1:05:20.840 that you wouldn't have thought that you would if you 1:05:20.880 --> 1:05:22.840 were a betting man, you wouldn't have said, yeah, they're 1:05:22.880 --> 1:05:25.720 going to be running the show there. They end up 1:05:25.800 --> 1:05:30.400 in charge and you know, maybe the country eventually comes 1:05:30.440 --> 1:05:32.440 back to some degree of normalcy, but they can go 1:05:32.520 --> 1:05:37.800 through a very dark, dangerous, destructive period as a result 1:05:37.880 --> 1:05:41.600 of one party losing its way. I think the Democratic 1:05:41.680 --> 1:05:44.960 Party has lost its way. I don't think that it's 1:05:45.120 --> 1:05:48.040 safe for America to be entrusted to these people at all. 1:05:48.120 --> 1:05:51.760 I think that they are very destructive. And I wanted 1:05:51.760 --> 1:05:53.960 to share with you there's a letter. I'll get to 1:05:54.080 --> 1:05:57.640 it in a few moments, but I think that they've 1:05:57.680 --> 1:06:00.880 reached a point now where then don't even know how 1:06:00.960 --> 1:06:02.600 to work with the other side on a lot of 1:06:02.680 --> 1:06:06.280 this stuff. And the younger end of the Democratic Party, 1:06:06.320 --> 1:06:08.160 when you look at Bernie supporters and other the younger 1:06:08.240 --> 1:06:13.240 end of the Democratic Party is where the most fervor is. 1:06:13.760 --> 1:06:15.680 You know, boomers will say what they have to say 1:06:15.880 --> 1:06:20.320 to be that's why you know, Biden and Kolobuscher and 1:06:20.480 --> 1:06:24.320 whoever they'll say. Even though I think Biden is technically 1:06:25.280 --> 1:06:27.040 he's pre booming, is he? I think he's above the 1:06:27.040 --> 1:06:32.320 boomer generation age right or whatever? He's not the greatest general? 1:06:32.320 --> 1:06:34.320 What's between? What's between boomers and the great No, I 1:06:34.320 --> 1:06:36.440 guess boomers come after the greatest generation, So he must 1:06:36.440 --> 1:06:39.000 be a boomer. But he's an old boomer. But they'll 1:06:39.040 --> 1:06:41.080 say what they have to say in order to be 1:06:41.320 --> 1:06:44.360 in good standing with the Democratic Party. The younger end 1:06:44.440 --> 1:06:48.440 of the political spectrum these days is frightening, is frightening, 1:06:48.520 --> 1:06:51.080 and that's why what you see going on with college 1:06:51.120 --> 1:06:53.800 campuses and what you see happening in much of the 1:06:53.960 --> 1:06:56.640 media is I think a harbinger of things to come, 1:06:56.680 --> 1:06:59.080 in a very, very troubling one. So I want to 1:06:59.120 --> 1:07:00.960 talk to you more about what what is the youth 1:07:01.040 --> 1:07:04.720 support of Bertie Sanders and really the youth direction of 1:07:04.800 --> 1:07:07.080 the American left telling us about what our future is 1:07:07.120 --> 1:07:10.000 going to be like in this country because we are 1:07:10.200 --> 1:07:11.960 we are in a new place now. We have not 1:07:12.080 --> 1:07:17.080 seen this before, certainly since the nineteen sixties. You're in 1:07:17.200 --> 1:07:20.720 the freedom hunt. This is the buck Sexton Show podcast. 1:07:24.480 --> 1:07:26.760 It's the amount of money that you have can force 1:07:26.840 --> 1:07:29.400 the DNC to change their rules, but the DMC would 1:07:29.400 --> 1:07:32.560 not change their rules for Corey Booker, Julean Castro, Kamala Harris. 1:07:33.400 --> 1:07:37.440 That is a that is an actualization of power. And 1:07:37.680 --> 1:07:39.840 we all know how I feel about billionaires. I don't 1:07:39.920 --> 1:07:43.360 think that in a place where sixty percent of Americans 1:07:43.440 --> 1:07:46.800 can't even you know, make more than forty thousand dollars 1:07:46.840 --> 1:07:49.680 a year, that the presence of a billionaire who largely 1:07:49.760 --> 1:07:53.200 makes their money off of businesses underpaying their workers, like Walmart, 1:07:53.280 --> 1:07:56.520 like Amazon, like so on, should exact she does. She 1:07:56.600 --> 1:07:59.120 has an economics degree and learn nothing. Apparently she does 1:07:59.200 --> 1:08:01.720 not understand how business works. I left out that There 1:08:01.840 --> 1:08:06.280 was a pretty good moment last night when Bloomberg got 1:08:06.360 --> 1:08:08.800 to say, who else on the stage has started their business? 1:08:09.320 --> 1:08:11.760 Of all the Democrat candidates answers, none of them. They're 1:08:11.760 --> 1:08:15.520 all just politicians. They're all completely invested in one thing, 1:08:15.600 --> 1:08:19.040 one thing only, the brand of ME I II MEM. 1:08:20.280 --> 1:08:23.160 That is where those Democrats come down when you look 1:08:23.160 --> 1:08:27.400 at their background, their experience in the private sector. They 1:08:27.479 --> 1:08:29.599 think private sector is be in office for twenty years 1:08:29.720 --> 1:08:31.519 and then if somebody ghost write a book about what 1:08:31.600 --> 1:08:33.559 you did in office for twenty years and go get 1:08:33.600 --> 1:08:35.360 fancy speeches that somebody else wrote for you at one 1:08:35.439 --> 1:08:38.560 hundred thousand dollars a pop. I mean, that's technically the 1:08:38.640 --> 1:08:41.000 private sector, but it doesn't give you any any actual 1:08:41.160 --> 1:08:45.080 knowledge of how to thrive and operate in the private sector. 1:08:45.960 --> 1:08:48.120 And you know, AOC I keep saying, we're going to 1:08:48.160 --> 1:08:50.400 be talking more about the youth of the Democratic Party 1:08:50.479 --> 1:08:53.000 or the younger end of it, you know, gen gen Z, 1:08:53.360 --> 1:08:58.519 gen Y, gen X, and millennial millennials. Obviously I left 1:08:58.560 --> 1:09:02.120 millennials out. The younger out of the Democratic Party is 1:09:02.160 --> 1:09:05.679 the more radical end, and we would like to believe 1:09:05.800 --> 1:09:08.800 that they as they pay more taxes and learn more, 1:09:08.800 --> 1:09:10.759 as they get older, they'll become at least more moderate, 1:09:10.800 --> 1:09:14.400 if not more conservative. I'm not sure given the way 1:09:14.520 --> 1:09:17.680 that the structure around them is being set up right now. 1:09:18.240 --> 1:09:22.880 The left wing, the left wing takeover of much of 1:09:22.960 --> 1:09:25.920 corporate culture that has gone on now and certainly the 1:09:26.040 --> 1:09:29.400 corporate the left wing takeover of Hollywood and of the 1:09:29.479 --> 1:09:34.640 news media. They're churning out people that are going to 1:09:34.760 --> 1:09:37.080 institutions that you know, I talked people that went to 1:09:37.240 --> 1:09:39.200 my college, for example, you know when it was all male, 1:09:39.680 --> 1:09:42.519 which was as recently as the nineteen eighties, and there 1:09:42.720 --> 1:09:45.759 was still some it was a liberal place. All colleges 1:09:45.800 --> 1:09:48.160 are a little bit liberal whatever, but there was still 1:09:48.240 --> 1:09:52.320 some sense of traditional values and norms that would come across. 1:09:52.360 --> 1:09:55.360 There are more professors that would share those those feelings. 1:09:55.800 --> 1:10:01.160 Now these places, colleges, universities, high schools, public schools, they 1:10:01.320 --> 1:10:07.880 are indoctrination centers for armies of little socialists who mouth 1:10:08.000 --> 1:10:11.880 platitudes like AOC does. That she has no idea. If 1:10:12.080 --> 1:10:14.280 a business just becomes rich by underpaying its workers, then 1:10:14.280 --> 1:10:18.080 all businesses would just underpay all their workers, and you know, 1:10:18.280 --> 1:10:20.160 nobody would have no workers would stay with them, and 1:10:20.160 --> 1:10:21.840 they wouldn't make any money. I mean, she has no 1:10:22.160 --> 1:10:26.760 understanding of wages and what prices are. That prices are 1:10:26.880 --> 1:10:30.840 set by the market by individuals making free choices about 1:10:30.920 --> 1:10:33.600 what they want to do, and that the only information 1:10:33.720 --> 1:10:38.120 we have to understand where those prices should be, you know, 1:10:38.400 --> 1:10:42.160 are set by the market. Otherwise it's just people throwing 1:10:42.240 --> 1:10:45.280 darts at a board with disastrous results. She does not 1:10:46.280 --> 1:10:50.200 understand that, and what's worse, she doesn't care that She 1:10:50.280 --> 1:10:53.120 doesn't understand that, and that's why we've gotten to this 1:10:53.200 --> 1:10:57.439 point where Bernie Sanders is the Democrat front runner. That 1:10:57.560 --> 1:11:00.920 should be deeply troubling to all of us an intellectual 1:11:01.080 --> 1:11:04.200 level as well as a political level.

Remember to subscribe on 1:11:07.720 --> 1:11:11.880 Apple podcast, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. 1:11:13.080 --> 1:11:15.040 This came across my radar. I want to share it 1:11:15.120 --> 1:11:18.960 with you. It's a piece in the American Conservative called 1:11:19.200 --> 1:11:25.000 Postcard from pre Totalitarian America. That's a you know, kenchy 1:11:25.840 --> 1:11:28.880 kenchy headline. I guess it just got published. Yeah, it 1:11:28.960 --> 1:11:31.920 just published this week. And this is how it goes. 1:11:33.000 --> 1:11:35.400 Last year, I spoke to a Soviet born scholar who 1:11:35.439 --> 1:11:40.000 teaches in an American public university. I'm using a quote 1:11:40.040 --> 1:11:44.360 from our forthcoming from our discussion in my forthcoming book, 1:11:45.560 --> 1:11:49.040 Live Not by Lies. This morning she sent me this email, 1:11:49.080 --> 1:11:51.320 which I reproduce with her permission. I want to read 1:11:52.040 --> 1:11:55.760 to you from this email because it really does get 1:11:55.800 --> 1:11:57.760 at what I'm saying to you, which is, even if 1:11:57.840 --> 1:12:01.600 we defeat Sanders socialism in either the primary or the 1:12:01.680 --> 1:12:06.320 general election, there's something very wrong with the American left, 1:12:07.080 --> 1:12:12.360 particularly among the young today, that the virus of socialist 1:12:12.520 --> 1:12:15.920 authoritarianism has spread in a way that I'm not sure 1:12:16.040 --> 1:12:17.519 this is going to be a one off. I don't 1:12:17.520 --> 1:12:20.599 think that Bernie Sanders as a socialist nominee. This isn't 1:12:20.600 --> 1:12:22.679 the last time we're going to see this. If anything, 1:12:22.760 --> 1:12:25.439 Democratic Party the momentum, but for the last twenty years, 1:12:25.479 --> 1:12:30.920 has been has been consistently pushing in this direction. Certainly 1:12:31.000 --> 1:12:35.920 Obamaism was far lean. Obama, people forget, was the most 1:12:36.240 --> 1:12:40.840 left wing senator in the Democratic Party by voting record 1:12:41.040 --> 1:12:44.800 when he was elected President the United States. So we 1:12:45.160 --> 1:12:47.639 already elected the most left wing guy in the Senate 1:12:48.120 --> 1:12:50.680 by voting record who was a Democrat, and I think 1:12:50.680 --> 1:12:53.800 at the time, technically Bernie Sanders may have been an independent, 1:12:53.920 --> 1:12:56.880 but so he was either number one or number two, 1:12:57.280 --> 1:12:59.280 all right. He was a very far left guy when 1:12:59.320 --> 1:13:01.479 he was a Senator, and then he became president United 1:13:01.479 --> 1:13:04.920 States and did a lot to push forward policies that 1:13:04.960 --> 1:13:09.040 were really bridging mechanisms between the more free market and 1:13:09.160 --> 1:13:11.360 capitalist oriented society we have been living in and an 1:13:11.400 --> 1:13:15.960 increasingly statist and socialist one. This is the letter that 1:13:16.479 --> 1:13:20.880 the Rod Dreyer wrote or that he reprinted rather from 1:13:20.880 --> 1:13:25.760 a Soviet born scholar about what she's seeing among the 1:13:26.040 --> 1:13:29.479 youth on the left today, youth really in general, because 1:13:29.520 --> 1:13:31.679 most of them are leftists. And this gets to also 1:13:31.720 --> 1:13:34.200 to I think the Bernie Brow mentality, where you have 1:13:34.280 --> 1:13:36.439 these twenty five and thirty year olds who are big 1:13:36.479 --> 1:13:42.200 Bernie standers supporters, who are just maniacal about how anybody 1:13:42.240 --> 1:13:44.479 who stands in Bernie's way, even Democrats, to stand in 1:13:44.560 --> 1:13:48.160 Bernie's way. They shouldn't be convinced. They should just be destroyed, 1:13:48.880 --> 1:13:51.799 they should be shoved aside. They're a part of the problem. 1:13:52.640 --> 1:13:55.479 Here is what was written here. I know from your 1:13:55.520 --> 1:13:58.360 blog that the work on your new book is going well, 1:13:58.360 --> 1:14:02.000 and I'm glad, because boy, it is so needed. I'm 1:14:02.040 --> 1:14:05.960 observing some disturbing developments on my campus and we are 1:14:06.040 --> 1:14:09.519 really not one of those Wokester schools for spoiled brats 1:14:09.920 --> 1:14:14.000 one normally associates with this kind of thing. This academic year, 1:14:14.080 --> 1:14:17.280 I've had an opportunity to work with some early career academics. 1:14:17.880 --> 1:14:21.360 These are newly minted PhDs that are in their first 1:14:21.520 --> 1:14:24.519 year on the tenure track. What's really scary is that 1:14:24.640 --> 1:14:29.040 they sincerely believe all the woke dogma. Older people, those 1:14:29.120 --> 1:14:32.280 in their forties, fifties, or sixties, might parrot the woke 1:14:32.360 --> 1:14:36.160 mantras because it's what everybody in academia does and you 1:14:36.280 --> 1:14:41.479 have to survive. But the younger generation actually believes it. 1:14:41.600 --> 1:14:46.880 All transwomen are women. Black students fail calculus because there 1:14:46.960 --> 1:14:51.320 are no calculus professors who quote look like them. Whiteness 1:14:51.520 --> 1:14:54.719 is the most oppressive thing in the world. The US 1:14:54.960 --> 1:14:58.719 is the most evil country in history. Anybody who votes 1:14:58.760 --> 1:15:02.200 Republican is a RACI. Everybody who goes to church is 1:15:02.240 --> 1:15:07.599 a bigot. But the hijab is deeply liberating. I gently 1:15:07.720 --> 1:15:10.800 mocked some of this stuff, like we normally do among 1:15:10.880 --> 1:15:14.880 older academics, and two of the younger academics in the 1:15:14.960 --> 1:15:21.280 group I supervise actually cried because they believe all this 1:15:21.520 --> 1:15:26.080 so deeply, and I'd even say fanatically that they couldn't comprehend. 1:15:26.160 --> 1:15:30.160 Why wasn't taking it seriously? The fanatical glimmer in their 1:15:30.240 --> 1:15:34.360 eyes really scared me. Back in the USSR in the 1:15:34.479 --> 1:15:38.519 nineteen seventies and the nineteen eighties, nobody believed the dogma. 1:15:39.160 --> 1:15:43.200 People repeated the ideological mantras for cynical reasons to get 1:15:43.240 --> 1:15:47.080 advanced in their careers or get food packages. Many did 1:15:47.120 --> 1:15:51.519 it just to protect their kids, but nobody sincerely believed it. 1:15:52.320 --> 1:15:55.680 That is what ultimately saved us. As soon as the 1:15:55.800 --> 1:15:59.240 regime weakened a bit, it was doomed because there were 1:15:59.280 --> 1:16:02.920 no since your believers anymore. Everybody who did take the 1:16:03.040 --> 1:16:07.360 dogma seriously belong to the generation of my great grandparents 1:16:08.320 --> 1:16:12.040 in the US, though the generation of the fanatical believers 1:16:12.200 --> 1:16:15.080 is only now growing up and coming into its prime. 1:16:15.720 --> 1:16:18.479 We'll have to wait until their grandkids grow up to 1:16:18.560 --> 1:16:21.200 see a generation that will be so fed up with 1:16:21.320 --> 1:16:25.080 the dogma that it will embrace freedom of thought and expression. 1:16:25.840 --> 1:16:29.280 But that's a long way away in the future. I'm 1:16:29.320 --> 1:16:31.800 mentoring a group of young scholars in the humanities to 1:16:31.880 --> 1:16:34.920 help them do research, and I'm starting to hate this task. 1:16:35.600 --> 1:16:39.719 Young scholars, almost without exception, think that scholarship is entirely 1:16:39.800 --> 1:16:46.360 about repeating woke slogans completely uncritically. Again, this is different 1:16:46.400 --> 1:16:50.560 from the USSR, where scholars peppered their writing with the slogans, 1:16:50.800 --> 1:16:53.840 but always took great pride in trying to sneak in 1:16:54.080 --> 1:16:59.520 some real thinking and real analysis behind the required ideological 1:16:59.680 --> 1:17:03.960 driven every Soviet scholar starting from the nineteen seventies was 1:17:04.000 --> 1:17:08.480 a dissonant at heart because everybody knew that the ideology 1:17:08.720 --> 1:17:12.280 was rotten. All of this is sad and very scary. 1:17:12.680 --> 1:17:16.280 I never thought I'd experience anything worse, anything more intellectually 1:17:16.360 --> 1:17:20.360 stifling than the USSR of its last two decades of existence. 1:17:21.080 --> 1:17:25.720 But now I do see something worse. The book you 1:17:25.800 --> 1:17:27.720 are writing is very important. I hope that many people 1:17:27.800 --> 1:17:31.519 hear your message. So we'll have to have mister dreer 1:17:32.520 --> 1:17:37.280 On to talk about this book Live not by lies. 1:17:37.360 --> 1:17:40.280 It sounds very interesting to me. But for somebody who 1:17:40.439 --> 1:17:42.559 lived for decades in the Soviet Union to come out 1:17:42.600 --> 1:17:47.800 and note this difference, I think this is something a 1:17:47.840 --> 1:17:51.080 lot more people need to hear. That the wokeness that 1:17:51.520 --> 1:17:53.640 I often make fun of and then you understand to 1:17:53.800 --> 1:18:01.479 be intellectual rot and that it is just rivel, and 1:18:01.680 --> 1:18:06.519 that the origins of these ideological points of view are 1:18:06.640 --> 1:18:09.680 always thinking. Our systems that have already been tried and 1:18:09.840 --> 1:18:13.719 failed are beliefs that have been shown to be lacking, 1:18:14.160 --> 1:18:17.840 lacking in terms of nurturing the human spirit, lacking in 1:18:18.000 --> 1:18:21.120 terms of creating good societies that people want to live in. 1:18:22.640 --> 1:18:27.040 This is all rooted in in lies, in untruth, and 1:18:28.320 --> 1:18:32.400 this is now becoming so commonplace among younger people in particular, 1:18:33.240 --> 1:18:35.559 that we have to wonder what the future will really 1:18:35.600 --> 1:18:37.680 look like. Do we think for example, that someone who 1:18:37.760 --> 1:18:40.240 is twenty five or twenty right now, let's say twenty 1:18:40.240 --> 1:18:43.719 for kids who are in college age, that really believes 1:18:43.760 --> 1:18:46.200 some of the things that this professor laid out there, 1:18:46.320 --> 1:18:49.599 like trans women or women. If you if you've gone 1:18:49.600 --> 1:18:54.479 around mouthing that slogan, which is which is absurd, right, 1:18:54.560 --> 1:18:57.360 It's just it's not trans women or trans women that 1:18:57.520 --> 1:18:59.320 could be that you can say is true. You can 1:18:59.360 --> 1:19:02.200 talk about that, fine, but trans women are not just women, 1:19:02.520 --> 1:19:04.439 because then what are women? I mean, you get into 1:19:04.439 --> 1:19:07.880 the definitions here, and you understand that there's an intentional 1:19:08.000 --> 1:19:12.000 perversion of language that's taking place and a changing of 1:19:12.160 --> 1:19:16.120 language to go along with it, whereby now plural pronouns 1:19:16.160 --> 1:19:20.040 are required for individuals and the gender issue by the way, 1:19:20.160 --> 1:19:22.920 you know, conservatives spend a lot of time talking about this, 1:19:23.560 --> 1:19:26.000 and I think now the attack on us for it 1:19:26.120 --> 1:19:28.240 is always why we're picking on this. What is a 1:19:28.439 --> 1:19:31.559 very small group percentage wise of the American population. Very 1:19:31.640 --> 1:19:34.720 small group globally, and there's a sense that because we 1:19:35.040 --> 1:19:36.960 focus on this that we're picking on trans people. I 1:19:36.960 --> 1:19:40.200 would never pick on trans people. They're people just like 1:19:40.479 --> 1:19:44.080 everyone else, and they're deserving of respect and kindness and 1:19:44.160 --> 1:19:48.759 decency just like everyone else. But the leftist ideology behind 1:19:48.840 --> 1:19:51.680 the trans movement is something that we have to be 1:19:51.760 --> 1:19:54.680 able to talk about and discuss. And the way that 1:19:54.760 --> 1:19:57.679 they're co opting, we're changing language to suit their political 1:19:57.760 --> 1:20:02.479 preferences and all of this is really really unsettling, and 1:20:02.680 --> 1:20:07.280 we should all be very aware of that. We should 1:20:07.320 --> 1:20:10.240 start to understand that people who think this in their 1:20:10.280 --> 1:20:12.639 twenties are not going to wake up in their thirties 1:20:12.720 --> 1:20:17.080 and all of a sudden be reasonable constitutionalists who think 1:20:17.120 --> 1:20:21.840 that the rule of law has to mean a respect 1:20:22.040 --> 1:20:25.000 for this system even when you don't like the outcome. 1:20:25.520 --> 1:20:28.880 And liberals, because this appeals right, This appeals to people's 1:20:28.880 --> 1:20:32.280 sense of self righteousness and their emotions. Liberals have created 1:20:32.320 --> 1:20:35.240 a world in which when the rules are in their favor, 1:20:35.360 --> 1:20:38.280 the rules are sacrosanct, and when the rules get in 1:20:38.320 --> 1:20:40.479 their way or don't work out the way they want 1:20:40.520 --> 1:20:46.160 them to, they are to be abandoned or undermined. Discarded 1:20:47.240 --> 1:20:51.760 any of the above. And that's why I thought this 1:20:52.479 --> 1:20:56.240 letter from this former resident of the Soviet Union saying 1:20:56.320 --> 1:20:58.479 that this is really troubling. And remember the point here 1:20:58.600 --> 1:21:02.000 being that people in this Oviet Union in academia. She's 1:21:02.000 --> 1:21:04.680 talking about young PhDs, people that are now. They are 1:21:05.000 --> 1:21:07.560 let's say twenty five, maybe twenty five to thirty in 1:21:07.640 --> 1:21:14.400 that range, young PhDs who think that the that that 1:21:14.520 --> 1:21:18.679 academia shouldn't be about the pursuit of truth, including difficult truths, 1:21:19.160 --> 1:21:23.240 and instead should be about the propagation of ideology, not 1:21:23.520 --> 1:21:27.120 merely because it's useful in the academy, so that's an 1:21:27.160 --> 1:21:31.479 opportunistic belief, but the propagation of ideology because they really 1:21:31.640 --> 1:21:36.120 truly think that this is the way that's not going 1:21:36.160 --> 1:21:37.680 to Those people are not going to change, they're not 1:21:37.720 --> 1:21:39.799 going to grow up. They're not going to start teaching, 1:21:40.479 --> 1:21:43.000 you know, the great classics of literature and stop referring 1:21:43.040 --> 1:21:46.679 to it as a province dominated by dead, dead white males, 1:21:46.760 --> 1:21:49.040 and how that's so not woke. And you know, we 1:21:49.120 --> 1:21:54.240 need to read more literature from cultures that in some 1:21:54.400 --> 1:21:56.920 cases don't have a very long history of literature, and 1:21:57.680 --> 1:22:00.600 not a lot of stuff to read. You know, you 1:22:00.680 --> 1:22:03.240 really get into this. You say, well, where where is 1:22:03.280 --> 1:22:06.400 this going to take us? And I think that it 1:22:06.479 --> 1:22:10.320 takes us to some pretty frightening places very quickly. That 1:22:10.720 --> 1:22:14.120 that's why. Also the Bernie Sanders situation really bothers me. 1:22:14.800 --> 1:22:17.240 It's troubling enough that he's even a front runner right 1:22:17.320 --> 1:22:19.680 now in this Democrat primary. When you listen to what 1:22:19.800 --> 1:22:23.560 he's suggesting, what he's saying, you know, Bernie Sanders is 1:22:23.640 --> 1:22:26.840 going to make sure that if he became president, he's 1:22:26.880 --> 1:22:28.639 going to make sure that this country is less free, 1:22:28.840 --> 1:22:33.120 less prosperous. And with that, let's be honest, let's less happy. 1:22:34.520 --> 1:22:37.680 But as long as we are equally sharing in a 1:22:37.760 --> 1:22:41.240 greater degree of misery, that's that's he's fine with that. 1:22:41.560 --> 1:22:44.040 That outcome is better. He says he's just going to 1:22:44.120 --> 1:22:46.320 pull down billionaires, but in the process, he's going to 1:22:46.320 --> 1:22:48.960 be pulling down people who have worked very very hard 1:22:49.280 --> 1:22:53.000 to try and create more freedom, more options, more security 1:22:53.000 --> 1:22:57.040 for themselves in their families. Because ultimately, he doesn't think 1:22:57.160 --> 1:22:59.040 and this is true of AOC, It's true if Bernie, 1:22:59.080 --> 1:23:02.920 it's true of Warren. He doesn't think that whatever you've 1:23:03.000 --> 1:23:05.880 done to get where you are is something that you 1:23:06.040 --> 1:23:09.839 can claim to have been your own. It's the government 1:23:09.920 --> 1:23:11.720 that allowed all of that. You didn't build that. This 1:23:11.880 --> 1:23:15.680 is the line that Obama said, that was a a 1:23:15.880 --> 1:23:20.080 much greater window into the mind of the contemporary leftist 1:23:20.160 --> 1:23:22.320 than was that certainly them was intended with that line, 1:23:22.720 --> 1:23:25.960 you didn't build that. Well, if you didn't build it, 1:23:26.040 --> 1:23:28.160 if you don't have ownership of your own time, your 1:23:28.200 --> 1:23:31.639 own labor, your own decision making, if the state gets 1:23:31.680 --> 1:23:35.200 to determine all of that, what does that turn into 1:23:35.320 --> 1:23:38.839 for America as a society. You know, already we've allowed 1:23:39.360 --> 1:23:42.240 as a country far too much socialism to creep into 1:23:42.320 --> 1:23:45.759 our system. And the state is a much larger presence 1:23:45.800 --> 1:23:49.160 in our lives, the big s state, the federal government 1:23:49.240 --> 1:23:51.400 is a much bigger presence in our lives than it 1:23:51.439 --> 1:23:54.120 should be. And we have to deal with that all 1:23:54.160 --> 1:23:56.639 the time, and we have to try to find ways 1:23:56.680 --> 1:23:59.160 to push back against it, and it has not been 1:23:59.280 --> 1:24:02.280 very successful. Recently, Donald Trump comes along, and I think 1:24:03.000 --> 1:24:04.760 a lot of us feel like this may just be 1:24:04.920 --> 1:24:08.680 a reprieve from the rampant statism of the left. It 1:24:08.760 --> 1:24:12.400 may not be a sweeping victory that changes the trajectory 1:24:12.400 --> 1:24:14.479 of the country. And that's when I look at the 1:24:14.560 --> 1:24:17.040 young people and what they're saying. At the young people. 1:24:17.040 --> 1:24:19.320 I mean, I'm not I'm thirty. God, I'm thirty eight now, 1:24:20.640 --> 1:24:23.680 Bruce and Mark, I'm almost forty. Man, you realize this. 1:24:24.040 --> 1:24:25.519 I feel like I feel like we could have been 1:24:25.560 --> 1:24:28.200 in high school math class together. And I sit here, 1:24:28.240 --> 1:24:30.080 I look at you, and I'm like, my god, when 1:24:30.160 --> 1:24:33.240 I was in high school math class, you were actually 1:24:33.360 --> 1:24:36.280 in diapers. What year were you in high school math class? 1:24:36.720 --> 1:24:38.519 I mean, let's say I would have been in high 1:24:38.560 --> 1:24:42.800 school in two. Oh, no, in nineteen nineteen ninety six. Yeah, 1:24:42.840 --> 1:24:45.120 it was three. Okay, so maybe you're just you're out 1:24:45.120 --> 1:24:47.080 of diapers at three. I don't know how that worked kids. 1:24:47.160 --> 1:24:49.439 But yeah, I'm not a kid guy. Yeah. Yeah, I'm 1:24:49.439 --> 1:24:52.240 not yet either. Um, but yeah you were. You would 1:24:52.240 --> 1:24:54.720 have been very very young. Yeah. So you know when 1:24:54.760 --> 1:24:56.840 I say the youth, though, can you explain to us 1:24:56.920 --> 1:24:59.880 why your your peers, your gens, you're we know you're millennial. 1:25:00.720 --> 1:25:04.559 You're like, you're you're barely a millennial because beard millennials. Yeah, 1:25:04.720 --> 1:25:07.160 and you're a no beard millennial. Yes, So can you 1:25:07.240 --> 1:25:09.240 explain why the people of your age are so crazy. 1:25:10.960 --> 1:25:13.360 Maybe something's in the water, you know. Would you say 1:25:13.439 --> 1:25:16.479 most of the most of the of your friends are 1:25:16.560 --> 1:25:19.680 they politically active? Do they care? Or are they just 1:25:19.880 --> 1:25:22.160 running their lives and like this is all a distraction 1:25:22.200 --> 1:25:24.320 to them. I have a few here there that will 1:25:24.360 --> 1:25:26.840 be politically active. I don't really talk politics with my friends. 1:25:27.120 --> 1:25:28.760 I don't want to. This is maybe this is a 1:25:28.800 --> 1:25:30.760 helpful reminder that I feel like when you work in 1:25:30.840 --> 1:25:34.240 politics and you're constantly looking at the ideology, you know, 1:25:34.400 --> 1:25:37.599 I want a country where that's actually the standard, where 1:25:37.640 --> 1:25:39.479 people don't have to think much. We should all think 1:25:39.520 --> 1:25:41.759 about about ethics and about the good life, and about 1:25:42.000 --> 1:25:44.040 what we should do with ourselves and our time, and 1:25:44.160 --> 1:25:47.240 have the freedom to differ in those pursuits. But I 1:25:47.320 --> 1:25:49.080 wish that there was much less of a focus on 1:25:49.479 --> 1:25:51.720 politics as really a form of personal branding, because this 1:25:51.760 --> 1:25:53.559 is what ends up happening. Everyone just sits around them. 1:25:53.560 --> 1:25:55.759 And when I was in DC, people to talk politics 1:25:55.800 --> 1:25:57.439 all the time. I mean, I'm a little different that 1:25:57.520 --> 1:25:59.560 I have to listen to this every day and yeah, no, 1:25:59.600 --> 1:26:02.519 I know I'm propagandizing from the right for producer Mark. 1:26:02.560 --> 1:26:05.599 But before I had this job, I wouldn't go around 1:26:05.640 --> 1:26:08.240 talking politics with my friends. I wasn't as informed because 1:26:08.280 --> 1:26:11.080 I didn't want to be, because I wasn't part of 1:26:11.160 --> 1:26:13.120 my life. Yeah, if that makes sense. Yeah, No, for 1:26:13.439 --> 1:26:14.840 for a lot of people, I think that this becomes 1:26:14.880 --> 1:26:17.200 such a it's become such a part of identity. And 1:26:17.280 --> 1:26:20.719 that's why you have all these Hollywood actors who aren't 1:26:20.760 --> 1:26:23.160 religious and I think are looking for purpose, and they 1:26:23.280 --> 1:26:27.200 latch onto purpose in the guise of climate change, activism 1:26:27.320 --> 1:26:30.599 and all these leftist causes that ultimately I think are 1:26:30.640 --> 1:26:34.000 just are just empty. They fill it with the promise 1:26:34.080 --> 1:26:37.000 of helping the poor, helping the world, helping the downtrodden, 1:26:37.520 --> 1:26:40.479 but they really don't do that. They just mouth these 1:26:40.760 --> 1:26:43.479 these slogans. They just say the things that they believe 1:26:43.479 --> 1:26:46.400 they're supposed to say. And much of it is I mean, 1:26:46.560 --> 1:26:49.719 there's a reason people do virtue, virtue signaling. It's because 1:26:49.800 --> 1:26:51.960 it's a form of self aggrandizement. It's it's look at 1:26:52.040 --> 1:26:55.479 how great I am. And that's behind a lot of 1:26:55.600 --> 1:26:57.599 leftism today, a lot of activism on the left today. 1:26:57.680 --> 1:27:02.840 So young people believe the crazy stuff from the left 1:27:02.880 --> 1:27:05.479 today more than even Soviet scholars. When I see young people, 1:27:05.520 --> 1:27:09.720 young scholars today believing in suppression and censorship as not 1:27:10.200 --> 1:27:11.840 a thing they have to put up with, but a 1:27:11.920 --> 1:27:14.800 thing that is good. And juxtaposing that with what was 1:27:14.840 --> 1:27:17.240 going on in the nineteen seventies and the nineteen eighties 1:27:17.240 --> 1:27:24.240 and Soviet Union. That's that's sobering, my friends. You're in 1:27:24.320 --> 1:27:31.599 the Freedom Hunt. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. Yeah, 1:27:31.600 --> 1:27:33.080 the wall is being built. You know, we're up to 1:27:33.160 --> 1:27:38.960 one hundred and twenty two miles and you think that money. 1:27:39.280 --> 1:27:41.600 That was not easy. But we got the money and 1:27:41.680 --> 1:27:43.639 we're building it, and we want a lot of cases 1:27:43.680 --> 1:27:46.240 in court. We were suthed all the way along the line, 1:27:46.680 --> 1:27:48.599 and we're up to one hundred and twenty two miles. 1:27:48.800 --> 1:27:51.960 In a very short time will be over five hundred miles. 1:27:52.040 --> 1:27:54.960 It's already had a tremendous impact. So the wall is 1:27:55.040 --> 1:27:57.920 moving along. I hope that the wall keeps moving along. 1:27:57.960 --> 1:27:59.559 This is an important promise. I also want to give 1:27:59.560 --> 1:28:01.120 you something a little bit, a little bit upbeat. After 1:28:01.200 --> 1:28:04.519 all that talk about the Soviet mentality overtaking young scholars 1:28:04.560 --> 1:28:07.280 in America in some ways works than the Soviet mentality. 1:28:07.320 --> 1:28:08.519 I feel like we should have a little bit of 1:28:08.880 --> 1:28:10.880 happy time. And so that's where I brought out, brought 1:28:10.920 --> 1:28:15.479 out the Trumpster. And he's incredible what he's been able 1:28:15.520 --> 1:28:18.160 to do so far, and the fact that he's still 1:28:18.479 --> 1:28:22.679 so full of fight and so vigorous in his defense 1:28:22.800 --> 1:28:26.600 not just of the administration, but now of capitalism and 1:28:27.000 --> 1:28:33.000 of American patriotism. He can't escape that. The Democrats really 1:28:33.240 --> 1:28:36.759 come at this with a view of how much America 1:28:36.840 --> 1:28:39.479 needs to be transformed, because America is deficient in so 1:28:39.600 --> 1:28:42.599 many ways. Trump is such a powerful voice out there 1:28:42.680 --> 1:28:45.439 for now. This country is actually amazing, and people who 1:28:45.520 --> 1:28:47.920 live here are lucky, and we want to preserve what 1:28:48.120 --> 1:28:51.760 is best in this country and continue on a path 1:28:52.000 --> 1:28:57.320 of increased prosperity and freedom and individuals being able to 1:28:57.360 --> 1:29:00.320 pursue their destiny. Mean, that's what we really want. And 1:29:00.600 --> 1:29:03.880 Trump gets that done. And I gotta says, it has 1:29:03.920 --> 1:29:08.480 been amazing watching him put up with all the nonsense, 1:29:08.560 --> 1:29:11.839 all the efforts to remove him from office, destroy everybody 1:29:11.840 --> 1:29:14.040 around him, and you see him at these rallies like 1:29:14.080 --> 1:29:16.679 he was last night, and you still get the sense 1:29:16.760 --> 1:29:18.960 that Trump is just loving it. He loves it, he 1:29:19.080 --> 1:29:22.160 loves the fight. Thanks for listening to the bus Sesson 1:29:22.200 --> 1:29:26.960 Show podcasts.

Um, 1:30:57.000 --> 1:31:03.040 let's get two DJ, who writes in first on roll Call. 1:31:03.160 --> 1:31:06.559 I keep hearing Bernie say healthcare is a right. Why 1:31:06.840 --> 1:31:10.320 is nobody calling him out? The rights are outlined in 1:31:10.360 --> 1:31:14.320 our Constitution and our Bill of Rights. If Bernie feels 1:31:14.400 --> 1:31:17.280 healthcare is a right, and as long as he has 1:31:17.320 --> 1:31:19.560 been working government, he should know there's a process for 1:31:19.680 --> 1:31:22.519 creating a new right called an amendment. Why is he 1:31:22.640 --> 1:31:26.880 not using the known system instead of trying to force 1:31:27.000 --> 1:31:29.600 what he feels is a right. This tells me he 1:31:29.720 --> 1:31:31.880 knows it would never go through the process to become 1:31:31.920 --> 1:31:35.200 a right. Jesse, Kelly and Fox, etc. Are not on 1:31:35.320 --> 1:31:38.479 this topic of this. Also, why even if he gets elected, 1:31:38.520 --> 1:31:40.280 it will still not be illegal right? It takes an amendment. 1:31:40.280 --> 1:31:43.800 If I'm not mistaken, Well, DJ, he's you know, I 1:31:43.920 --> 1:31:49.479 see your point. Bernie Sanders is intentionally conflating what he 1:31:49.720 --> 1:31:52.559 thinks of as a right with what is a right 1:31:52.640 --> 1:31:55.240 as a function of law. I mean, no one has 1:31:55.280 --> 1:31:57.640 a When you say you have a right to healthcare, 1:31:58.280 --> 1:32:01.800 what does that mean? What doesn't just think about that 1:32:01.880 --> 1:32:03.360 from what does it mean? So? Do you have a 1:32:03.520 --> 1:32:06.640 right to demand what do you have a right to 1:32:06.720 --> 1:32:11.320 say that you want a you know, let's say I here, 1:32:11.520 --> 1:32:17.479 I'll make this personal. I have a essentially two two 1:32:17.720 --> 1:32:21.360 severed tendons on my right ankle and what's called a 1:32:21.439 --> 1:32:24.639 cable various foot, which means you have a super high arch, which, 1:32:24.760 --> 1:32:26.439 unless you're a ballet answer, is not a good thing. 1:32:26.479 --> 1:32:29.800 It actually creates real instability. It means you're very susceptible 1:32:29.840 --> 1:32:34.600 to catastrophic ankle sprains and breaks. And the surgery for 1:32:34.760 --> 1:32:38.760 it is pretty intense. It's called a calcaneal osteotomy. And 1:32:38.920 --> 1:32:42.600 if I want to have that surgery, okay, so I 1:32:42.840 --> 1:32:45.439 know that's a medically necessary thing. I haven't done it yet. 1:32:45.920 --> 1:32:48.920 Do I get to so healthcare is a right? All right? Now? 1:32:49.120 --> 1:32:54.879 Do I get to walk into the most reputable hospital 1:32:54.880 --> 1:32:57.840 in New York City for this? Some would probably say 1:32:58.479 --> 1:33:02.160 HHS Hospital or h SS rather Hospital for Special Surgery 1:33:02.600 --> 1:33:06.559 and demand that their top surgeon give me a date 1:33:06.640 --> 1:33:09.920 in the next few weeks to do my surgery, and 1:33:11.120 --> 1:33:14.200 they take whatever money my insurance happens to feel like 1:33:14.320 --> 1:33:17.160 giving them. Is that? Is that what it means to 1:33:17.240 --> 1:33:19.800 have a right? Or do I have a right to 1:33:19.920 --> 1:33:23.920 wait three years? And have some doctor who went to 1:33:24.439 --> 1:33:30.800 medical school in French Guiana or something and now is gonna, 1:33:30.960 --> 1:33:34.360 you know, operate on me in between selling sham wows 1:33:34.400 --> 1:33:37.120 on the weekend. I mean, is that my right extends 1:33:37.120 --> 1:33:41.360 to what point if it's not based in free markets 1:33:41.479 --> 1:33:45.840 and individuals coming together and an insurance system that's actually 1:33:45.920 --> 1:33:47.640 insurance instead of what we have, which is just a 1:33:47.960 --> 1:33:51.519 very complicated cross subsidies. Am I able to just walk 1:33:51.560 --> 1:33:54.519 in and demand that the best surgeon in New York 1:33:54.560 --> 1:33:59.040 City operate on my ankle? Why not? I thought it's 1:33:59.040 --> 1:34:02.519 a right? Oh oh no, no, you see, you know 1:34:02.560 --> 1:34:05.519 who's going to answer this question for you? A bunch 1:34:05.600 --> 1:34:09.320 of bureaucrats. That's what Bernie Sanders. Bernie Sanders wants government 1:34:09.400 --> 1:34:12.840 bureaucrats who are unaccountable to you, who you won't even 1:34:12.840 --> 1:34:15.519 be able to get on the phone, who you can't 1:34:15.560 --> 1:34:20.160 get fired, to come up with policies in Washington, DC, 1:34:20.400 --> 1:34:24.120 come up with decisions in Washington, d C. About what 1:34:24.360 --> 1:34:27.479 doctor you can see, how quickly you can see that doctor, 1:34:27.880 --> 1:34:31.439 what services that doctor will cover. And Bernie Sanders wants 1:34:31.439 --> 1:34:32.880 you to believe that's going to be a good outcome 1:34:32.960 --> 1:34:36.680 for you. Do you really think that that's possible. You 1:34:36.760 --> 1:34:39.840 really think that that's true? No one who looks the 1:34:40.040 --> 1:34:41.880 And that's why I made a sort of personal Do 1:34:42.000 --> 1:34:43.160 I think that I'd be able to go get a 1:34:43.240 --> 1:34:47.840 great surgeon to take care of my very messed up ankle? 1:34:48.560 --> 1:34:49.680 Do I think I'd be able to get a great 1:34:49.720 --> 1:34:52.080 surgeon to do that in a Bernie Sanders world where 1:34:52.120 --> 1:34:55.600 we have Medicare for all? Absolutely not, because guess what, 1:34:56.080 --> 1:34:59.560 everybody else who wants to have surgery, you know what 1:34:59.640 --> 1:35:04.400 do you call orthopedic surgery? Everyone else in New York City. 1:35:04.439 --> 1:35:06.680 They can do Google searches too. They know what the 1:35:06.760 --> 1:35:10.519 reputations are of different facilities, different doctors, and they're all 1:35:10.520 --> 1:35:13.880 gonna want to see this doctor. And is he gonna 1:35:13.920 --> 1:35:15.479 get pained enough that he's gonna even want to stay 1:35:15.560 --> 1:35:18.280 in practice and accept the Bernie Sanders Medicare for All? 1:35:19.080 --> 1:35:20.760 Or is he going to say no, I'm only seeing 1:35:20.800 --> 1:35:24.040 patients who pay cash, who run a credit card at 1:35:24.120 --> 1:35:27.320 my front desk, and then and then I'll perform surgery. 1:35:27.960 --> 1:35:30.479 And what if Bernie Sanders administration says that this this 1:35:30.840 --> 1:35:36.120 you know, super whiz doctor only can take reimbursements for 1:35:36.280 --> 1:35:39.240 his procedures at a level that won't cover the overhead 1:35:39.280 --> 1:35:41.519 of his facility, won't cover the insurance that he has 1:35:41.560 --> 1:35:45.360 to pay for malpractice, etc. Etc. Maybe he just shuts down, 1:35:45.920 --> 1:35:48.479 or maybe he goes, you know, elsewhere to practice medicine. Right, 1:35:48.800 --> 1:35:51.559 this is the reality of healthcare. Bernie Sanders is giving 1:35:51.560 --> 1:35:54.920 you a mythology of healthcare. It's never going to be 1:35:55.040 --> 1:35:56.920 what he says it is. You know, he keeps saying 1:35:56.960 --> 1:36:00.519 Medicare for all. It's not Medicare for all. Medicare has 1:36:00.600 --> 1:36:05.040 co pays. Medicare doesn't cover everything. Medicare is something that 1:36:05.120 --> 1:36:08.720 people have paid into. You know, there's a number of things. 1:36:08.840 --> 1:36:12.760 Remember Medicare for all. You're not paying into this over time, 1:36:12.880 --> 1:36:16.599 You're just this is now just the general fund. It's 1:36:16.680 --> 1:36:18.920 more expensive than we already have in. Medicare is already 1:36:18.960 --> 1:36:23.439 too expensive, and doctors don't want to take it. We 1:36:23.760 --> 1:36:28.200 were running this experiment. Bernie Sanders is waging a war 1:36:28.479 --> 1:36:31.280 on history because we've done the things that he wants 1:36:31.320 --> 1:36:34.000 to do and it does not turn out well for us. 1:36:34.760 --> 1:36:38.320 And he just ignores this. He tries to pretend that 1:36:38.439 --> 1:36:40.760 we don't have the information that we do, that we 1:36:40.880 --> 1:36:44.640 don't know what's really going on here anyway. Sorry, I 1:36:44.720 --> 1:36:46.240 know that was a long thing about healthcare, but I 1:36:46.280 --> 1:36:47.960 just feel like when you when you personalize it, and 1:36:48.040 --> 1:36:49.960 as I've said to you, I've this is like when 1:36:50.000 --> 1:36:52.479 I talk about rent control. I've lived in tiny I've 1:36:52.520 --> 1:36:57.920 lived in really tiny, rinky dink apartments in New York City. 1:36:59.200 --> 1:37:01.720 I've had insurance, I've had terrible insurance that I've had 1:37:01.760 --> 1:37:03.960 no insurance and had to deal with doctors under all 1:37:04.000 --> 1:37:07.880 those circumstances. So I can draw, I can draw from 1:37:07.920 --> 1:37:10.080 these these personal experiences to tell you that there's just 1:37:10.640 --> 1:37:12.519 no way what some of these politicians are telling you 1:37:12.600 --> 1:37:14.680 it is true. It's going to be true. And I 1:37:14.760 --> 1:37:17.400 guess for some people they'd rather live with they'd rather 1:37:18.240 --> 1:37:21.519 live with the hope from the fantasy than deal with 1:37:21.600 --> 1:37:24.439 the reality. And that's really what that's at the heart 1:37:24.479 --> 1:37:28.080 of Sanders is m That's what Bernie Sandernista is all about. 1:37:29.120 --> 1:37:33.080 Richard Buck, this debate tonight has been like watching blood Sport. 1:37:34.200 --> 1:37:37.960 Kumid Day, Kumid Day. Prouser Mark, you've seen blood sport, 1:37:38.360 --> 1:37:43.679 get shut the front door. No way, you haven't seen 1:37:43.720 --> 1:37:46.080 blood sport. Do I have to? Well, missus Mark. Let 1:37:46.160 --> 1:37:48.360 you well, missus Mark, let you come over for like 1:37:48.439 --> 1:37:50.240 a movie night one night, like I'll have like about 1:37:50.280 --> 1:37:52.280 brothers over. They love blood Sport too. You gotta watch 1:37:52.280 --> 1:37:54.599 blood Sport, man. I'll bring it any well order, we'll 1:37:54.680 --> 1:37:57.640 order Chinese food gluten free and uh and you know 1:37:57.720 --> 1:37:59.479 we'll sit here and watch. Oh well, you're getting there 1:37:59.520 --> 1:38:02.880 with gluding preachies. Who is good? I will have sure. 1:38:02.920 --> 1:38:05.240 I don't want to hear this nonsense from you. Did 1:38:05.280 --> 1:38:06.960 you ever watch martial arts? We ever in the martial 1:38:07.040 --> 1:38:09.640 arts movement? Really, they were a huge thing in the 1:38:09.720 --> 1:38:11.400 eighties and even in the nineties a little bit. But 1:38:11.479 --> 1:38:13.679 then I think people will because here here's my theory 1:38:13.720 --> 1:38:19.320 about this that people realized because of MMA, that training 1:38:19.400 --> 1:38:23.760 to actually be a like, you know, having some ninety 1:38:23.800 --> 1:38:26.720 year old monk who can catch a fly with his 1:38:26.840 --> 1:38:29.040 fingers or something and has like a long silver beard, 1:38:29.320 --> 1:38:31.120 that guy's actually not going to beat twenty dudes in 1:38:31.200 --> 1:38:33.320 a fight like that's not that's not reality at all. 1:38:33.800 --> 1:38:36.439 And the people that actually can fight with their hands 1:38:36.800 --> 1:38:39.320 trained to fight with their hands and are and are 1:38:39.400 --> 1:38:41.800 in very good shape because also being strong and fast 1:38:41.920 --> 1:38:44.720 does matter. You don't just like meditate enough and you're 1:38:44.720 --> 1:38:47.000 a ninja warrior who will defeat everyone. And that was 1:38:47.160 --> 1:38:49.920 kind of you know, or or do a lot of 1:38:50.000 --> 1:38:53.400 spin kicks. Spin kicks and someone's gonna write anything. Someone 1:38:53.400 --> 1:38:55.080 always tols like book I've knocked to go out with 1:38:55.120 --> 1:38:56.840 a spin kick in the street fight. Okay, well, good 1:38:56.880 --> 1:38:58.840 for you. Spin kicks are not a good idea in 1:38:59.160 --> 1:39:01.400 a self defense. Sounds like an accident if you do 1:39:01.479 --> 1:39:05.120 it again. If I did, I'd pull a hammy. Who wouldn't. Yeah, 1:39:05.280 --> 1:39:07.240 I got I gotta stretch before it, and my spincake 1:39:07.280 --> 1:39:11.439 would be at like Waiste level, So if that all right? Anyway, 1:39:11.479 --> 1:39:13.360 So he has not seen he's not seen blood Sport. 1:39:13.360 --> 1:39:15.960 It's Van Dam's best movie. Have you seen any Van 1:39:16.000 --> 1:39:19.880 Dam movies? No? Probably not. There is one where there's 1:39:19.920 --> 1:39:23.240 an ice hockey rink. Oh wow, in the background he 1:39:23.400 --> 1:39:28.160 actually fights an ice hockey mascot. So maybe that's the 1:39:28.200 --> 1:39:29.880 one we should start with for you to see. Yeah, 1:39:30.080 --> 1:39:32.479 I'll get on that. There you go. Producer Mark has homework. 1:39:34.000 --> 1:39:36.680 Warren has been Van Dam screaming in slow motion as 1:39:36.720 --> 1:39:40.800 Bloomberg is stunned, sprang cash as he falls down. This 1:39:40.960 --> 1:39:44.320 whole Nda thing is amazing to watch Trump's ladies who 1:39:44.360 --> 1:39:47.600 signed NDA spoke anyways, no repercussions. Why is it that 1:39:47.640 --> 1:39:49.840 the Bloomberg ladies who signed that NDA won't speak. It's 1:39:49.840 --> 1:39:55.559 smacks of the Voldemort whistleblower double standard shields high. You know, Richard, 1:39:55.600 --> 1:39:58.120 I think even if these women, look, I don't believe that. 1:39:59.080 --> 1:40:02.880 You know, I don't believe the Bloomberg. He's honestly, he's 1:40:02.920 --> 1:40:08.599 too too cautious and too tactical. And I think we'd 1:40:08.600 --> 1:40:10.439 all more than that. I think we would know. I 1:40:10.520 --> 1:40:12.080 think we would know if he had done any really 1:40:12.160 --> 1:40:14.439 bad stuff to women in his in his company and 1:40:14.560 --> 1:40:17.519 his employee. You know, he's he's a little crass and 1:40:17.600 --> 1:40:19.560 he makes comments because he's a billionaire. He's used to 1:40:19.560 --> 1:40:22.519 being able to say what he wants. Let's be honest 1:40:22.560 --> 1:40:24.439 on the right, guys, we're kind of used to that now, right, 1:40:24.479 --> 1:40:27.280 I mean, crass billionaire who says what he wants. Let's 1:40:27.320 --> 1:40:29.599 not you know, we're not pearl clutching. It's Democrats who 1:40:29.600 --> 1:40:31.240 were doing all the pearl clutching over this. We're like, 1:40:32.360 --> 1:40:35.240 he said some stuff, he's apologized. You know, it's time 1:40:35.240 --> 1:40:37.760 to move on. It's not like that these nbas were waved, 1:40:37.800 --> 1:40:39.880 you'd find out that Bloomberg was running some you know, 1:40:40.000 --> 1:40:42.240 sex dungeon out of the Bloomberg News offices or something. 1:40:42.280 --> 1:40:44.040 That's what I'm trying to say. That's just not That's 1:40:44.080 --> 1:40:47.880 not this guy. So it's not a game changer either way, 1:40:48.120 --> 1:40:50.120 and I think the media is much more invested in 1:40:50.200 --> 1:40:55.000 this being a big deal than anybody else. Penny, did 1:40:55.080 --> 1:40:57.320 we ever actually hear who won an Eyowa? Yes? Penny 1:40:57.400 --> 1:41:00.439 turned out Mayor Pete Bouddha Judge got the most delegates. 1:41:00.479 --> 1:41:04.320 Bernie Sanders got the most in raw vote total in Iowa. 1:41:04.720 --> 1:41:07.160 Although I believe Sanders and Buddhajudge are both asking for 1:41:07.360 --> 1:41:10.760 a Reek canvass of a few counties there. So the 1:41:10.840 --> 1:41:18.400 answer is kinda anyway. Bill Rights. Illegal aliens are not 1:41:18.520 --> 1:41:21.880 more American than most Americans, but I can argue that 1:41:22.080 --> 1:41:25.599 many of them are ideologically more American than most lives. 1:41:26.520 --> 1:41:28.760 At least they see this country as somewhere they want 1:41:28.760 --> 1:41:31.559 to be and are willing to work for what they get. 1:41:32.160 --> 1:41:34.360 Don't get me wrong, I'm not an illegal alien advocate, 1:41:34.400 --> 1:41:37.360 but given a choice, I would happily trade the farm 1:41:37.400 --> 1:41:40.920 workers here in the Central Valley of California for Antifa, 1:41:41.000 --> 1:41:46.360 Bernie Brows and half of Congress. Bill. You know, look, 1:41:46.439 --> 1:41:49.759 I think most illegal aliens that you're going to come across, 1:41:50.040 --> 1:41:52.599 you know, vast majority of the percent of them are 1:41:53.000 --> 1:41:54.960 nice people who are just trying to get a better 1:41:55.040 --> 1:41:58.400 situation for themselves. And I have human sympathy for them, 1:41:58.439 --> 1:42:00.800 There's no question about it. Right they to leave usually 1:42:01.360 --> 1:42:04.560 crappy dysfunctional countries or crappy dysfunctional economies and come to 1:42:04.640 --> 1:42:07.120 a much better one. But we also have to protect 1:42:07.120 --> 1:42:08.880 the economy we have in the country we have, and 1:42:09.000 --> 1:42:13.519 sovereignty is important. We have laws, and also there is 1:42:13.560 --> 1:42:17.240 a small, a very small subset of illegal aliens who 1:42:17.360 --> 1:42:20.120 do commit really terrible crimes here, and we have to 1:42:20.200 --> 1:42:22.559 factor into this that they shouldn't be here at all 1:42:22.600 --> 1:42:26.080 in the first place. So those crimes should not have occurred, 1:42:27.479 --> 1:42:31.080 they shouldn't have been able to occur. So, Bill, thank 1:42:31.120 --> 1:42:36.160 you so much for writing in You're in the Freedom Hunt. 1:42:36.600 --> 1:42:43.040 This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast, all our more 1:42:43.160 --> 1:42:47.560 roll call here. Kristen writes in I also saw Parasite, 1:42:47.640 --> 1:42:51.080 and unless you like movies that show people just being 1:42:51.120 --> 1:42:53.800 cruel to others for no reason, other than to make 1:42:53.880 --> 1:42:57.160 themselves happy. You won't like it. I actually walked out 1:42:57.200 --> 1:42:59.760 after forty five minutes. I couldn't take it anymore. By 1:42:59.800 --> 1:43:05.040 the way, way, I love Training to Bussan too. Maybe 1:43:05.040 --> 1:43:06.880 I'll have to watch the trailer for Training to Bussan. 1:43:06.920 --> 1:43:08.599 I have like a little conversation about this. We should 1:43:08.600 --> 1:43:11.080 do like a bucking Mark Mystery Science Theater thing, you know, 1:43:11.439 --> 1:43:13.560 when we watch a movie and do the commentary on it, 1:43:13.600 --> 1:43:15.800 because you know, I'll try to give the movie a 1:43:15.800 --> 1:43:18.120 little bit of credit. Producer Mark will be salty and 1:43:18.400 --> 1:43:21.320 an unimpressed. Don't we need like rights for that and 1:43:21.360 --> 1:43:25.000 stuff we can't? Yeah, it's technically true. Yeah, maybe we're 1:43:25.000 --> 1:43:27.599 back the cooking idea. Then, so I think cooking works 1:43:27.640 --> 1:43:30.200 better because nobody can copyright cooking. Yeah, they can't copyright 1:43:30.280 --> 1:43:32.320 my steak. They better not. They better not try too, 1:43:32.400 --> 1:43:34.800 that would be bad news. Training. Have you haven't seen 1:43:34.840 --> 1:43:36.519 Training to Busan? I'm assuming no. This is that a 1:43:36.560 --> 1:43:40.080 Brandon movie? Yeah, zombies like eating people's faces. They all 1:43:40.120 --> 1:43:42.840 have the same storyline. Zombies come up. I think they 1:43:42.880 --> 1:43:46.200 eat people scary And then you know, give me a 1:43:46.280 --> 1:43:50.800 movie with like a plot. Wow. Yeah, Prucer Prucer brand 1:43:50.840 --> 1:43:51.960 that we gotta get him in here. You can have 1:43:52.000 --> 1:43:54.639 a little discussion about this a little bit. A little 1:43:54.680 --> 1:43:56.400 bit there, I think I think he would want to 1:43:56.400 --> 1:43:58.280 stand up for his horror movie work a little bit. 1:43:59.040 --> 1:44:03.960 Um Andy's next up, Shields High. The Miracle on Ice 1:44:04.320 --> 1:44:08.639 was our amateur college kids beating a de facto Soviet 1:44:08.760 --> 1:44:12.400 professional team. The Olympics jumped the shark after the Cold 1:44:12.439 --> 1:44:16.800 War ended by allowing professional athletes to participate. So, yeah, 1:44:16.800 --> 1:44:18.680 that was what I said yesterday that they were they 1:44:18.720 --> 1:44:21.640 were we had amateurs playing, so we so we did 1:44:21.680 --> 1:44:24.720 not have NHL players on that miracle team. Right. It 1:44:24.880 --> 1:44:27.200 was a couple of years later, maybe the nine. So 1:44:27.280 --> 1:44:29.240 that was our amateurs and the Soviets were like, we're 1:44:29.320 --> 1:44:33.880 gonna inject them with steroids and pay for everything, right Yeah, 1:44:34.760 --> 1:44:36.720 and Soviet the Russians are still very good hockey. Right. 1:44:36.760 --> 1:44:38.600 I see all these names of hockey players that are 1:44:38.640 --> 1:44:40.040 like the best, and I'm like, that guy came straight 1:44:40.080 --> 1:44:42.679 out of Saint Petersburg. I mean, nobody's gonna be Canada. 1:44:42.720 --> 1:44:46.400 If you're going pros versus pros, Canada almost always wins. 1:44:46.720 --> 1:44:50.559 Really yeah, of course it is the best, really better 1:44:50.640 --> 1:44:54.000 than Canada hockey. No, No, Canada is where hockey was, 1:44:54.160 --> 1:44:57.080 you know, born A. I guess it is kind of 1:44:57.120 --> 1:45:00.840 cold up there, kinda yeah, I've heard stories. I've only 1:45:00.840 --> 1:45:03.240 been to Canada a couple of times. Really, I've been 1:45:03.280 --> 1:45:06.240 to Toronto. Lovely people. I really like Canadians a lot, 1:45:06.360 --> 1:45:07.920 so I feel like I could handle it up there, 1:45:07.960 --> 1:45:09.559 except for the coal, I'm not. I'm not a super 1:45:09.600 --> 1:45:11.479 cold by the person. I said to my wife when 1:45:11.520 --> 1:45:13.840 we went to Toronto's like a clean New York Is 1:45:13.880 --> 1:45:17.240 it really? Yeah? Yeah, people tell me Vancouver is actually amazing. 1:45:18.000 --> 1:45:19.519 I've never been. I would like to go. Yeah, I'd 1:45:19.560 --> 1:45:20.960 like to go. That's the one place in Canada I 1:45:21.000 --> 1:45:22.560 really want to check out. I know people go to 1:45:22.600 --> 1:45:24.920 Montreal for like fun weekends, but I hear that Vancouver 1:45:25.080 --> 1:45:27.000 is actually I mean, the real estate market there is 1:45:27.160 --> 1:45:29.559 is completely nuts. People are spending like a million dollars 1:45:29.640 --> 1:45:31.800 for a you know, tiny little shack by the side 1:45:31.840 --> 1:45:35.400 of the road. All right, eric ky bucket. It must 1:45:35.400 --> 1:45:37.719 be a geographical thing, because I've never heard of anyone 1:45:37.760 --> 1:45:40.479 who hasn't heard of try Tip. No, I've heard of it. 1:45:40.560 --> 1:45:42.439 I just don't know what it is. It's not like 1:45:42.520 --> 1:45:44.479 Amy Klobascher who did not know who the president of 1:45:44.520 --> 1:45:53.200 Mexico is, Lopez Obrador. I'm low here in SoCal Try 1:45:53.280 --> 1:45:56.040 tip is probably the most common and loved cut of 1:45:56.120 --> 1:45:59.320 them all. It's affordable and you can cook it several ways. 1:45:59.479 --> 1:46:01.519 Smoked tip that is seared in butter on a cast 1:46:01.560 --> 1:46:03.519 iron skillet at the end is the best. I don't 1:46:03.520 --> 1:46:05.960 know if you have the restaurant Lucille Smokehouse in New York, 1:46:06.000 --> 1:46:07.760 but they have good try tip. I've never heard of 1:46:07.840 --> 1:46:10.040 that restaurant, but I will take a look. David hey 1:46:10.080 --> 1:46:11.920 Buck love the show. Listen to discuss how the brain 1:46:11.960 --> 1:46:14.719 works with depression and food makes sense. When I'm depressed, 1:46:14.760 --> 1:46:17.080 I go straight to Burger King. While my wife is depressed, 1:46:17.120 --> 1:46:19.519 she chugs chocolate. Food can make you feel better, even 1:46:19.560 --> 1:46:22.960 for a little This works. This is worth looking more into. David. Yeah, man, 1:46:23.080 --> 1:46:25.000 Food is very important for a lot of things, including 1:46:25.040 --> 1:46:27.120 I think how we feel and our energy and our 1:46:27.160 --> 1:46:29.519 immune systems, and I think food really does matter. With 1:46:29.600 --> 1:46:31.280 that in mind, I'm gonna go make myself some bacon 1:46:31.320 --> 1:46:33.519 and scrambled eggs as soon as we're done here.
