Speaker 1: Everybody has seen how dishonest the media is in recent weeks,
Speaker 1: particularly about this. I mean, there's so much we could
Speaker 1: insert in the fill in the blank there, but particularly
Speaker 1: when it comes to this Georgia election law. They're lying
Speaker 1: about it all over the place. And it's fascinating because
Speaker 1: I thought we were supposed to be able to count on,
Speaker 1: not just the media, to be truthtellers, because that's absurd.
Speaker 1: We don't really believe that. But at least the social
Speaker 1: media companies and the tech giants. Aren't they supposed to
Speaker 1: get rid of lives. Aren't they supposed to make sure
Speaker 1: that only truth is able to be shared? Don't they
Speaker 1: block things that are misinformation? And yet has any misinformation
Speaker 1: about the Georgia election law SP two O two Has
Speaker 1: any of that been banned? Has any of that been
Speaker 1: taken down? Have you seen that anywhere? No? Of course not,
Speaker 1: because we all understand what's really going on here. We
Speaker 1: recognize that they have taken sides. We'll be talking about that,
Speaker 1: and also of course the updates on the Ramda santis
Speaker 1: effort here from the media to destroy him. They're trying
Speaker 1: to find a way to make the single best governor
Speaker 1: with the most impressive results in the entire country from
Speaker 1: the pandemic. They're trying to make him look like the
Speaker 1: bad guy after they held up Cuomo and Newsom as
Speaker 1: the good guys. It's embarrassing, but that's, of course what
Speaker 1: the media does. You can't trust them. You also can't
Speaker 1: trust the big tech companies. You know that much, and
Speaker 1: now is the time to take a stance. Take a
Speaker 1: stance against the MLB, take a stance against Coca Cola,
Speaker 1: take a stance against Facebook and Google. Protect your personal
Speaker 1: data from big tech with the VPN. I trust Express VPN.
Speaker 1: That's a virtual private network it prot XU. When you
Speaker 1: use Express VPN, your connection online gets rerouted through their
Speaker 1: secure encrypted servers, so these companies can't see your IP
Speaker 1: address at all. That I'm talking about here. Every device,
Speaker 1: whether you're on your phone, laptop, or TV, has a
Speaker 1: unique string of numbers called an IP address. When you
Speaker 1: search for stuff, watch videos, or even click a link,
Speaker 1: and then the big tech companies can use that to
Speaker 1: track all of your activity. You don't want that, so
Speaker 1: all you have to do is get Express VPN. You
Speaker 1: don't need to be tech savvy either. It's so easy.
Speaker 1: I've got it on all my devices. Protect your Internet
Speaker 1: activity with the VPN I'm using every day. Go to

Speaker 1: Express vpn dot com slash buck. This is unbelievable, I
Speaker 1: mean really unfortunate today. Obviously the Major League Baseball has
Speaker 1: folded up and cave to the cancel culture and a
Speaker 1: bunch of liberal lives, quite honestly, and what's even more
Speaker 1: sad as the President of the Nined States, Joe Biden,
Speaker 1: and people like Stacy Abrams labeling the Election Integrity Act
Speaker 1: Jim Crow, this is what happens. You know. Now, you
Speaker 1: have a lot of small business owners, a lot of
Speaker 1: great baseball fans, including myself, or they're getting deprived of
Speaker 1: having the All Star Game in Atlanta because of a
Speaker 1: cancel culture. And I think it's a message to all
Speaker 1: of us all across this country that are at home tonight.
Speaker 1: They're coming after you next. You know, they're gonna come
Speaker 1: after your ball game. They're going to boycott your business.
Speaker 1: If you don't agree with their way of life, they're
Speaker 1: gonna come after you on that too. Cancel culture is
Speaker 1: a cancer in our society. It's destroying us. It's eating
Speaker 1: us from the inside out. It's ruinous, and now it's
Speaker 1: going to cost a whole lot of small business. So
Speaker 1: owners and employees, people that are selling merchandise, people that
Speaker 1: own hotels or try to rent out their home on
Speaker 1: Airbnb or whatever it may be. They're losing. They estimate
Speaker 1: in the county in Georgia, cop County where they were
Speaker 1: going to have the Major League Baseball All Star Game,
Speaker 1: a hundred million dollars of revenue. Now one hundred million
Speaker 1: dollars of revenues being pulled from this part of the country.
Speaker 1: And I know they'll say, oh, buff they'll just move
Speaker 1: it somewhere else. Yeah, but people were counting on that revenue.
Speaker 1: People have been making decisions, people have been preparing for this.
Speaker 1: You're going to punish an area of the country that
Speaker 1: work to put itself in a position where they could
Speaker 1: actually have this kind of an event. You're going to
Speaker 1: punish them for what for lies lies. Governor Camp knows
Speaker 1: everyone in Georgia, everyone who's read the bill, the Election
Speaker 1: Integrity Act SB two O two, everyone knows that this
Speaker 1: is all bullcrap. But Democrats don't care about that. The
Speaker 1: lie is useful. There's a certain power, there's a certain
Speaker 1: advantage they get from just making it up. So that's
Speaker 1: all that really matters. And that's what they've done. And
Speaker 1: they've caused real damage to people here. And it's not
Speaker 1: just Major League Baseball, mind you, it's also Coca Cola,
Speaker 1: it's Delta Airlines. These are companies that could very easily say,
Speaker 1: and it would be much better for the country if
Speaker 1: they said, we provide great services to all people, and
Speaker 1: you know, support our democracy, but we don't take part
Speaker 1: as in political stances out of respect for our customers
Speaker 1: and our employees. But no, that's not the culture we
Speaker 1: have now, because you see, conservatives have, unfortunately, and this
Speaker 1: has been a huge mistake, spent a long time sitting
Speaker 1: around saying, you know, maybe we'll get them to stop
Speaker 1: being crazy, Maybe we can get the left, the Libs,
Speaker 1: the progressives to stop being insane. But it doesn't work
Speaker 1: because they're getting their way they're benefiting from this. They
Speaker 1: get to bash their political enemies, they get to increase
Speaker 1: their power. Why would they stop. They don't care about
Speaker 1: the damage that's being done to people. They like the
Speaker 1: damage that they see. They like that people that disagree
Speaker 1: with them politically, or having their business hurt or perhaps
Speaker 1: even ruined. And if there's some collateral damage or they're
Speaker 1: own side, you know what I'm making Omelet you gotta
Speaker 1: break a few eggs. That's their attitude, Like all leftists, collectivists, totalitarians, stalinists.
Speaker 1: You know, some people are going to suffer because of
Speaker 1: my maniacal policies, my desire for control and absolute power.
Speaker 1: Too bad. That's really the ethos of the Democrat Party
Speaker 1: these days. They don't care. It doesn't bother them at all.
Speaker 1: They'll just tell themselves fairy tales. They'll tell themselves lies
Speaker 1: about what's happening if they have to, or they just
Speaker 1: will ignore it, or they don't mind. It doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: It's not going to stop. So how do we get
Speaker 1: to stop? People ask me this, where are you spending
Speaker 1: your dollars? What companies, what corporations do you support? What
Speaker 1: products are you buying? You buy the products of companies
Speaker 1: that support free speech. Do you purchase things online or
Speaker 1: in store that are sold to you by people who,
Speaker 1: even if they don't share your values. That's one thing
Speaker 1: that's fine, although I think that's also good. But at
Speaker 1: least they're willing to allow you your values and not
Speaker 1: spit on you all the time. Are you making those determinations?
Speaker 1: I tell you this, and I say it without without
Speaker 1: any hesitation. Are you checking out the sponsors on this
Speaker 1: show or whatever other shows you listen to as well?
Speaker 1: I'll just say it. I mean this is a general principal,
Speaker 1: though obviously I care the most about the sponsors on
Speaker 1: this show. Are you actually taking action on those things?
Speaker 1: Because if the answers no, if you're just yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: still gonna fly Delta because I like the points and
Speaker 1: Coca Cola upon the way, you should not be drinking
Speaker 1: Coca cola. We all know this, right, SODA's terrible for you.
Speaker 1: It's a whole other really also to unfortunately, it's kind
Speaker 1: of like a treat. You know, if you think of
Speaker 1: soda like you think of, you know, a lollipop or
Speaker 1: a candy cane or something a once in a while
Speaker 1: sweet treat. That's fine, but I know Coca Cola has
Speaker 1: bought all these other brands and companies beneath it, but
Speaker 1: in general, it's still thought of as a soda company.
Speaker 1: And really, people shouldn't be drinking that stuff. You should
Speaker 1: be drinking water. I try to remind myself of this
Speaker 1: all the time. But are you taking action based upon
Speaker 1: these things? Every single one of you listening to this
Speaker 1: huge amounts of people across the country because the show
Speaker 1: is it has gotten big now, folks, and we have
Speaker 1: a large audience across the United States. It's been you know,
Speaker 1: it's taken us five years to get here, but now
Speaker 1: we're one of the by the numbers, I'm certain, one
Speaker 1: of the ten biggest radio shows in the United States.
Speaker 1: And then it's a question of where we fall on
Speaker 1: that list for conservative talk. And we sit here and
Speaker 1: we we think to ourselves, how is this going to change?
Speaker 1: How will this stop? Um, it's only when we fight back.
Speaker 1: And that's what Trump when he released you know, forty
Speaker 1: five as people are calling him now, the former present
Speaker 1: of the United States put out one of his I
Speaker 1: don't know what we call these these memoranda, memoranda from
Speaker 1: down in Marlago where he said that this is this
Speaker 1: is nonsense, and you've got to hit back. If we
Speaker 1: don't hit back, we lose. I hope everyone at least
Speaker 1: understands that now. If we don't decide that it's time
Speaker 1: to do something about this cancel culture and everyone has
Speaker 1: to has to mobilize, then it just continues on and
Speaker 1: then we just we'll get used to what I suppose
Speaker 1: over time, or we start just withdrawing from our principles
Speaker 1: in public life and allow the other side to just
Speaker 1: steamroll us all the time. You know, when was when
Speaker 1: was the last time a company did something drastic because
Speaker 1: it was so afraid of conservatives or traditional Christians or
Speaker 1: Republicans or whatever coming after them? Women? Was the last
Speaker 1: time you can think of? Because I can sit here
Speaker 1: and tell you lots of times the pendulum is swung
Speaker 1: in the other direction. It happens all the time. Actually,
Speaker 1: So we either change this dynamic or continues to be
Speaker 1: the dynamic. That's where we are. I think people have
Speaker 1: realized this now. I will tell you. I will admit
Speaker 1: I used to have a sense that I used to
Speaker 1: have a sense that you know, we could we could
Speaker 1: convince the other side to stop being crazy but now
Speaker 1: i've I've seen it's really over the last over last
Speaker 1: three or four years, it's gotten particularly egregious. But I've
Speaker 1: seen that they don't care that it's damaging and that
Speaker 1: it's wrong, and that it's unprincipled. In fact, it's an advantage, right,
Speaker 1: if you're willing to do whatever to get what you want.
Speaker 1: You got a lot, you've got a lot of room
Speaker 1: for maneuver, you get a lot of things you can do.
Speaker 1: That's their approach. They don't feel badly about any of this,
Speaker 1: and it has enormous effects on Remember one company does this,
Speaker 1: a lot of other companies go, oh, better put out
Speaker 1: another statement on diversity and inclusion. Better put out another
Speaker 1: statement in support of you know, multiculturalist rhetoric or whatever
Speaker 1: it is. Right, Better put out another statement corporate policy.
Speaker 1: And then people are working. Those companies have to sit
Speaker 1: around and mouth the preferred slogans of the cultural Marxist
Speaker 1: you know, yes or okay, yes, ma'am, okay, say whatever
Speaker 1: they're told to say, like a bunch of brainless robots
Speaker 1: that just want to keep their jobs and keep their
Speaker 1: healthcare and their paychecks. And I get it, but this
Speaker 1: keeps happening, and we keep turning around looking at each
Speaker 1: other and saying, we're half the country. Why can't we
Speaker 1: stop this? The other side doesn't live through this. Why
Speaker 1: do we have to We need to wake up, folks.
Speaker 1: The time to do something about this is now. Here's
Speaker 1: Governor kemping in place. Sixteen. It means cancel culture and
Speaker 1: partisan activists are coming for your business. They're coming for
Speaker 1: your game or event in your hometown, and they're coming
Speaker 1: to cancel everything from sports to how you make a living.
Speaker 1: And they will stop it nothing to silence all of us.
Speaker 1: They are happy to silence all of us. That's the goal,
Speaker 1: that's the purpose. See on the right. Because we believe
Speaker 1: in free speech, the free exchange of ideas, we understand
Speaker 1: that there's something lost when there's no space for political
Speaker 1: discussion that is free, fair and open. We also understand
Speaker 1: that there's something lost when there are places that can't
Speaker 1: be by nature free of politics. And we used to
Speaker 1: think of sports as a place where that was largely true.
Speaker 1: I know people will talk about Kareem of Little Jabbar
Speaker 1: and Muhammad Ali and other you know sports superstars who
Speaker 1: have taken very political stances at different times, but Generally speaking,
Speaker 1: we think of sports as something where you could sit
Speaker 1: down and have a conversation as a Republican or a conservative.
Speaker 1: You could sit down and talk to, you know, your
Speaker 1: progressive neighbor about you know who, who's gonna win the
Speaker 1: Stanley Cup this year or who's gonna win the Heisman? Right,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't. I honestly don't really care
Speaker 1: about this stuff at all. So I'm increasingly not meaning
Speaker 1: professional sports and also college sports too, So I don't
Speaker 1: pretend to know much about this. I'm I've disconnected from
Speaker 1: it for many years now. But the point is you
Speaker 1: used to be able to talk to people about this,
Speaker 1: and there was some sense of common ground, there was
Speaker 1: some shared understanding, and it didn't always devolve into a
Speaker 1: political food fight. Now it you'll talk about politics first.
Speaker 1: In the context of sports. You'll speak about how you
Speaker 1: know NBA players are taking a knee or NFL players
Speaker 1: are doing something during the Pledge of a sorry during
Speaker 1: the National anthemo Pledge of a legions. But they're doing things,
Speaker 1: and that's what comes up before anything else. Because the
Speaker 1: progressive left feels like it's just a long string of
Speaker 1: victories on this issue. We either raise the cost and
Speaker 1: fight back, or we keep losing. It's a once in
Speaker 1: a generation investment in our economic future, a chance to
Speaker 1: win the future, paid for by asking big corporations, many
Speaker 1: of which do not pay any taxes at all, just
Speaker 1: to begin to pay their fair share. And it won't
Speaker 1: raise a penny tax. And a family making less than
Speaker 1: four hundred thousand dollars a year no federal tax. No addition,
Speaker 1: Joe Biden wants to tax corporations more. Now, if you
Speaker 1: listen to the leftist rhetoric, you'd think that corporations will
Speaker 1: be automatically incensed by this, and that they would be
Speaker 1: strong supporters of the lower tax Republican Party. But that's
Speaker 1: not happening at all. In fact, big corporations are fans
Speaker 1: of big government. They're largely controlled by They are generally
Speaker 1: now a constituency of the Democrat Party. I'm talking about
Speaker 1: the mega corporations. They're very top not all companies, but
Speaker 1: places like Amazon, Google, Facebook, Delta, major League Baseball. You're
Speaker 1: going on the whole list. And I didn't even mention
Speaker 1: this before. Major League Baseball should lose it's antitrust exemption.
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball in a state like Georgia should lose
Speaker 1: it's any tax breaks that it has, or Delta Airline
Speaker 1: should lose tax breaks for example in the state of Georgia.
Speaker 1: That's what should happen. They companies should know that if
Speaker 1: we're going to punish people based on politics, politics is
Speaker 1: going to punish them back. And then you'll understand this
Speaker 1: is this is very straightforward. This is about power dynamic
Speaker 1: in our society. So we can ignore it and keep
Speaker 1: keep just taking her on the chin, or we can
Speaker 1: say that this is enough and people are saying, oh,
Speaker 1: but what can I do? I've already told you. Do
Speaker 1: you support do you support private corporation? Do you support
Speaker 1: companies that are out there selling products that will defend
Speaker 1: your values that stand with you? Companies like the ones
Speaker 1: that advertise on this show, but on other shows too.
Speaker 1: You know, when when you see when you see commercials
Speaker 1: on Fox News, if you're a Fox watcher, are you're like, Okay,
Speaker 1: that's that's a company that's standing with Fox. So I'm
Speaker 1: going to support them because they're going after Fox advertisers constantly,
Speaker 1: They're going after radio advertisers constantly. So it's very easy,
Speaker 1: in fact, to show that you care about this, and
Speaker 1: you're and you're showing you care every day. You have
Speaker 1: choices to make every day that are either helpful or
Speaker 1: not helpful with regard to protecting basic freedom, free speech,
Speaker 1: and the right to have your beliefs respected by corporations,
Speaker 1: by companies just in the free market in general, or
Speaker 1: in the market as we know, the markets never really
Speaker 1: free in this country. But that's another conversation. But why
Speaker 1: do big companies not get up? So why don't they
Speaker 1: turn on Democrats over this one? Biden saying he wants
Speaker 1: to raise the corporate tax rate going forward, It's because
Speaker 1: they will find ways. They have armies of accountants, and
Speaker 1: they have the kind of political leverage to get things
Speaker 1: like a special statewide or even national tax break. They
Speaker 1: have the influence to live by a different set of rules.
Speaker 1: And so what ends up really happening is that smaller
Speaker 1: companies upstarts challengers, people that want to go up against
Speaker 1: the incumbents. They end up squashed by the regulatory pressure,
Speaker 1: by the additional cost, by the additional taxes. They end
Speaker 1: up hurt by these government policies and regulations, and government
Speaker 1: gets more revenue looking like they're standing up for the
Speaker 1: little guy, when really they're actually just crushing the middle
Speaker 1: guy for the benefit of the guy on top. That's
Speaker 1: what's really happening. That's what will occur with the Democrats
Speaker 1: passing their their attacks proposal going forward. And then there's
Speaker 1: just also the way this bill and Georgia continues to
Speaker 1: be lied about it. I mean, it would be one
Speaker 1: thing if this was a really contentious area of politics.
Speaker 1: You know, if Georgia had just passed let's say, a
Speaker 1: statewide ban on abortion or even a ban on abortion,
Speaker 1: you know after the first two terms of the pregnancy,
Speaker 1: which something like seventy Americans would agree with. But anyway,
Speaker 1: if Georgia did that, that would be treated like, you know,
Speaker 1: end of Days, the biggest fight of all time. And
Speaker 1: you could see how it gets very political. They're acting
Speaker 1: like and it's because people like Joe Biden are reckless
Speaker 1: and shameless liars. They're acting like, what's happened in Georgia
Speaker 1: is a law that prevents minorities from voting. That's what
Speaker 1: this is racist. They've said. Jim Crowe two point zero.
Speaker 1: I mean they're actually referencing I mean, the Jim crow
Speaker 1: laws are named for a minstrel show character these were hideous,
Speaker 1: inhumane laws put in place after the Civil War to
Speaker 1: prevent black people from having their their rights. I was
Speaker 1: gonna say, their full rights, having really any civic rights.
Speaker 1: They're comparing this law to that. Biden said, it's Jim
Speaker 1: Crow on steroids. It's worse than literacy tests, segregated housing,
Speaker 1: segregated transportation, you know, separate waterfounds. It's worse than that,
Speaker 1: Biden says. Think about how crazy that is. Think of
Speaker 1: out how recklessly and just disgustingly unfair and untrue it is.
Speaker 1: This is the president. I'm not talking about a few
Speaker 1: random people on the internet or have a YouTube show somewhere.
Speaker 1: This is the president of the United States, and he's
Speaker 1: lying about this that much, you know. But then again,
Speaker 1: this is the president who said about Mitt Romney quote
Speaker 1: gonna put y'all back in chains and quote. We all
Speaker 1: remember that. That's what Joe Biden said when he was
Speaker 1: vice president, and it was disgusting. Well, what does the
Speaker 1: law do. I've I've went I've gone through this with
Speaker 1: you once or twice before on the show and in
Speaker 1: some specifics. But it says you need voter ID for
Speaker 1: absentee ballots. Okay, well, you need voter ID to vote
Speaker 1: in person, so voter ID for absentee ballots is racist. Well, no,
Speaker 1: we've all the Supreme Court's already looked at. Voter ID
Speaker 1: in person is legitimate, universally applicable, a necessary component of
Speaker 1: voter integrity measures. I have absolutely no problem with it,
Speaker 1: and I think it's necessary, and go beyond having no
Speaker 1: problem with it. And they say that you can't bring
Speaker 1: water to people, You can't bring food and water to
Speaker 1: people in line? I mean, is anybody really going to
Speaker 1: starve or die of dehydration because they wait on a
Speaker 1: voting line for an hour? First of all, it's not true.
Speaker 1: As you know, they can have food and water one
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty feet if you're that hungry. It's completely
Speaker 1: legal for people to hand out sandwiches and you know,
Speaker 1: potato chips and soda whatever they want one hundred and
Speaker 1: fifty feet from the polling station, and the polling stations
Speaker 1: themselves can distribute water to people, which is fine. But
Speaker 1: yet they still go around lying about this, They still
Speaker 1: go around pretending that this situation is different than it is.
Speaker 1: Why do they do that, Well, because they're reckless, Because
Speaker 1: they benefit from it. Because the Democrat Party right now
Speaker 1: wants to put Republicans on defense for racism while they
Speaker 1: completely steamroll political norms, have a border crisis. Are talking
Speaker 1: about the elimination of the filibuster and a massive transformation
Speaker 1: of the economy. We don't need a transformation of the economy.
Speaker 1: We just need to let the economy get turned back on.
Speaker 1: We need government to get out of the way with
Speaker 1: these unbelievably stupid continued lockdowns and all this stuff that's
Speaker 1: going on right now still to this day, we need
Speaker 1: the government to stop doing those things. But no, instead
Speaker 1: of just allowing us to go back to life as
Speaker 1: we know it or had known it before the pandemic,
Speaker 1: they're using this as a crisis for the massive transformation
Speaker 1: of America. And the way they're covering their tracks as
Speaker 1: they do this is by getting us to be at
Speaker 1: each other's throats over racism in a law in Georgia
Speaker 1: that is not racist. You know, there's a quote often
Speaker 1: misattributed to Winston Churchill. Any Churchill quotes on the internet
Speaker 1: are fake, and there's a lot of other fake quotes
Speaker 1: to you know, like Abraham Lincoln telling you don't believe
Speaker 1: everything you read on the internet that quote. But there's
Speaker 1: the fake Churchill quote, but it's still a good quote
Speaker 1: about how a lie gets halfway around the world before
Speaker 1: the truth has a chance to put its pants on.
Speaker 1: Churchill never actually said this, but people will put it
Speaker 1: out there on the Internet anyway. And I understand it's
Speaker 1: tough to know quote attribution. But there's the President Franklin Roosevelt,
Speaker 1: Secretary of State Quartell whole did write, a lie will
Speaker 1: gallop halfway around the world before the truth has time
Speaker 1: to pull its breeches on. So that's a real quote,
Speaker 1: a real attribution versus the much more famous Churchill one
Speaker 1: that he didn't actually say. Plus Churchill would have never
Speaker 1: said pants. Keep that one in mind. He wouldn't have
Speaker 1: said pants, brit But you see this with the way
Speaker 1: that the way that people are talking about what's going
Speaker 1: on in Georgia. It's there are just so many lies
Speaker 1: about it. And when you're talking about blatant, objective lines
Speaker 1: like this, you wonder how could this continue? Well, it's
Speaker 1: because of all the pressure of all the incentives, the
Speaker 1: incentives to continue to perpetuate these lies. And I'm telling you,
Speaker 1: if you've tried to share your political opinions on social
Speaker 1: media lately. You know, it's really hard to have an honest,
Speaker 1: forthright conversation. But now I've got a place where you

Speaker 1: enough early voting, well, Stans. By the way, Staceremans was
Speaker 1: in New Jersey, in my state, praising Phil Murphy this
Speaker 1: week for a voting law where New Jersey early voting
Speaker 1: is nine days, half half of what Georgia is. Yet
Speaker 1: she's on TV in New Jersey. I saw it myself,
Speaker 1: saying that this is one of the greatest voting expansion
Speaker 1: bills we've ever seen. But this is Jim Crow. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: George doesn't make anyh Yeah, Chris Christie's making a good
Speaker 1: argument here. I know a lot of you like Chris Christie,
Speaker 1: but he's trying to make a comeback, or at least
Speaker 1: a media comeback. It's amazing. Now. I used to be
Speaker 1: I think that people wanted to go into the media
Speaker 1: so they could become politicians. Now people become politicians so
Speaker 1: they can be media stars. But anyway, Chris Christie pointing
Speaker 1: out here that early voting in Georgia, I mean, there's
Speaker 1: no good faith in argument here from the lap of
Speaker 1: this is racist and evil and Jim Crow, I mean,
Speaker 1: they're just it's a smear. It is slander, purposeful political slander.
Speaker 1: And I keep saying of the state of Georgia, but
Speaker 1: it's of Republicans in the State of Georgia. That's what
Speaker 1: this is really all about. And because of the history
Speaker 1: of the State of Orgia, which does have a very
Speaker 1: troubled history, because if Democrat enabled legalized racism, by the way,
Speaker 1: starting you know, right after the well stretching back obviously
Speaker 1: from well before the Civil War, but going all the
Speaker 1: way up until the Civil Rights era. Because of all
Speaker 1: of that, this has a particular resonance right now when
Speaker 1: we talk about it. But let's actually look at this
Speaker 1: for a second. If it's if it's racist to have
Speaker 1: whatever it is, nineteen days of early voting in Georgia,
Speaker 1: isn't it a lot more racist only of nine days
Speaker 1: in New Jersey? If you look at Delaware, Joe Biden's
Speaker 1: home state, a Blue Democrats state, and you look at
Speaker 1: their voting laws, Georgia is far more permissive and far
Speaker 1: less restrictive. Is the term of art here. Restrictive is
Speaker 1: the word that keep using to talk about this, but
Speaker 1: that's very that's intentionally meant to convey an impression without
Speaker 1: getting into the details. Because if you look at what
Speaker 1: other states actually have in place, there are many that
Speaker 1: are Blue Democrats, states that are far more restrictive than Georgia.
Speaker 1: So how is it fair to call Georgia that? But
Speaker 1: this is these are word games, word games that are
Speaker 1: very powerful, word games that serve the purpose of the Democrats.
Speaker 1: But they're meant to intentionally mislead you about what's really
Speaker 1: happening here. They're meant to show you a different reality
Speaker 1: from what's really playing out before your very eyes. And
Speaker 1: that is the opening. Then, because they've created all of
Speaker 1: this noise, it's the opening for these corporations and to
Speaker 1: pile on as well. And then it becomes a movement.
Speaker 1: They have mobilized a Lynsky style. Doesn't matter what was true.
Speaker 1: The allegation creates the mob mentality of a need for
Speaker 1: people to do something about the thing that doesn't even
Speaker 1: exist or isn't even real. But once the mob is
Speaker 1: out there with pitchforks and torches, so to speak, looking
Speaker 1: to make an example of the cam or storm, the
Speaker 1: bastie or you know whatever, Right, once the people are mobilized,
Speaker 1: you got what you want. They're angry, You tell them
Speaker 1: who to attack, You tell them who to go after.
Speaker 1: That's what ends up happening here. And corporations get in
Speaker 1: on it too. As I've told you, I believe there
Speaker 1: has been a major shift in some of the most
Speaker 1: well known American companies out there, some of the most powerful,
Speaker 1: wealthy companies out there. It used to be that they
Speaker 1: did these things because they were afraid of boycotts. Now
Speaker 1: they're effectively weaponized against Republicans in the GOP because the
Speaker 1: people in charge believe this stuff that's part of the
Speaker 1: transformation that's happened here, or they believe it enough that
Speaker 1: they're willing to go along with it when they think
Speaker 1: there could be some short term benefit from it. You know,
Speaker 1: I hate the idea of boycotts. I hate the idea
Speaker 1: of politicization of sports, even though I think professional sports
Speaker 1: is full of overpaid cry baby snap who Now not
Speaker 1: all of them. Don't tell me, oh Buck, but I
Speaker 1: love sol and sir, I love my team. That's fine.
Speaker 1: I'm speaking generally, but you know this, to be a
Speaker 1: professional athlete in America, to be playing a kid's game
Speaker 1: and paid millions and millions of dollars to do it.
Speaker 1: What a what a rarified? What a special thing that is?
Speaker 1: You know, while most people show up at jobs where
Speaker 1: they make maybe enough money to pay very basic simple
Speaker 1: bills to live in you know, an okay place. You know. Well,
Speaker 1: while most of America is just kind of trying to
Speaker 1: keep their heads above water, some people, often who are
Speaker 1: quite genetically gifted, are able to make millions or tens
Speaker 1: of millions of dollars for doing something that the rest
Speaker 1: of us think is fun. And yet they complain about
Speaker 1: this country a lot, now, don't they a lot of
Speaker 1: complaints about what a what a bad country this is?
Speaker 1: In fact, we have you know, Rapino the female professional soccer.
Speaker 1: But I mean women's professional is boring. It's just boring.
Speaker 1: You can like it, that's fine. A lot of people
Speaker 1: think that conservative talk radio is boring or crazier or whatever.
Speaker 1: Fine they're allowed to I'm allowed to say women's professional
Speaker 1: soccer is not a good product. And I'm not alone
Speaker 1: in that because not a lot of people watch it,
Speaker 1: because it's just not very good. I mean, if you
Speaker 1: really want to watch soccer at about that speed. Go
Speaker 1: watch your local high school teams play and you'll see
Speaker 1: about the same speed. And I mean that, and I
Speaker 1: coached high school soccer, so I have some idea what
Speaker 1: I'm talking about. You'll see about the same speed. And
Speaker 1: yet you have athletes who are seizing on the female
Speaker 1: professional soccer players, who were seizing on the politics of
Speaker 1: the moment to say that they're not paid the same way.
Speaker 1: I mean, this is all very straightforward. We understand why
Speaker 1: they're not paid the same amount of money, right, but
Speaker 1: we're supposed to forget that now, because what otherwise you'll
Speaker 1: be attacked. You'll be attacked by this mobilized, woke mob, right,
Speaker 1: They'll come after you even for something as obvious is
Speaker 1: that the fact that somebody could be played, is that
Speaker 1: somebody could be paid to play any professional sport as
Speaker 1: a gift, and they should view it as such. But that, honestly,
Speaker 1: women's soccer players, you know, make the money they do
Speaker 1: is pretty remarkable. Just say it. And without the men's
Speaker 1: leagues creating essentially an incubator for the infrastructure of women's sports,
Speaker 1: I also have to wonder when are we just going
Speaker 1: to have why not just have co ed co ed sports,
Speaker 1: all all across the board. This is what the left wants, right,
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't want this. I think it's crazy,
Speaker 1: But why not just have all all co ed sports.
Speaker 1: We'll see, we'll see how many women are playing in
Speaker 1: a co ed NHL. But you see what they'll do
Speaker 1: is they'll say, oh, but we shouldn't. And by the way,
Speaker 1: I know this is crazy, right, women can be amazing
Speaker 1: athletes in their sport, you know, and competing against their gender.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to explain what the left, what the left
Speaker 1: just mentality is going to mean, or should mean if
Speaker 1: we take it seriously, we mean we we eliminate gender
Speaker 1: gender separation of sports. And what that will also meet
Speaker 1: is that you will have basically no women on professional
Speaker 1: teams where they're judged by ability to put points on
Speaker 1: the board or you know, to catch or to run
Speaker 1: a certain distance in a certain time, whatever it may be.
Speaker 1: But we're supposed to forget about all that. Now. We're
Speaker 1: a country that seems increasingly like there's a there's a
Speaker 1: war on observation. You can't observe things that are very
Speaker 1: clear to you, that are very straightforward, that are very apparent.
Speaker 1: You're supposed to pretend you don't see what you see,
Speaker 1: and that's all over the place. It's when we talk
Speaker 1: about you know, women's women's sports and complaining about equal pay,
Speaker 1: we talk about sp TWOO two in Georgia, what it
Speaker 1: actually does versus what they're saying it does. When we
Speaker 1: see these campaigns about you know, Asian American and or
Speaker 1: what I can't AAPI. I don't even know what the
Speaker 1: acronyms did. I've never seen this acronym until a couple
Speaker 1: of weeks ago. But you know, it's something Asian Pacific
Speaker 1: islander hate, um, you know, stopping the hate of a
Speaker 1: API groups. And we're not supposed to notice that. They
Speaker 1: only seem to really want to talk about that those
Speaker 1: incidents wentn't involve somebody who is a white male perpetrator.
Speaker 1: And that's not most of the cases you're seeing, is it.
Speaker 1: But not a lot of talk about it, not a
Speaker 1: lot of just say this is what I'm observing. You're
Speaker 1: not even not even making statements of of you know,
Speaker 1: empirical fact necessarily other than just this is what I've seen,
Speaker 1: this is what I'm seeing. Can we talk about what
Speaker 1: I'm seeing? No, you cannot talk about what you're seeing,
Speaker 1: you will be canceled. You will be punished for that.
Speaker 1: It's a war on observation. It's the cancelation of observations. Really,
Speaker 1: what you're seeing, you say what they tell you to say.
Speaker 1: Don't read the text of SP two O two in Georgia.
Speaker 1: Just call it racist and anybody who supports it racist. Don't.
Speaker 1: Don't spend your time actually learning it. Don't listen to
Speaker 1: shows like this, Well you'll understand what's really happening. No,
Speaker 1: you're not allowed to observe. You are told what to do.
Speaker 1: This is the terrifying thing. There are a lot of
Speaker 1: people who want to be told what to do. And
Speaker 1: I know I could transition to maybe I will into
Speaker 1: some mask talk here and what's going on with lockdowns.
Speaker 1: But there are people who find tremendous comfort in being controlled.
Speaker 1: There are people who would much rather have their lives
Speaker 1: dictated to them than have to make decisions and have
Speaker 1: freedom in a lot of these choices. I know that seems,
Speaker 1: but just look at cults and look at out people
Speaker 1: willingly turn over all of their decision making, all of
Speaker 1: their powers of individual thought and free you know, free
Speaker 1: minds and the free agency of the individual will no
Speaker 1: interest in that stuff. Tell me what to do, tell
Speaker 1: me who to bow before. Just as long as I'm
Speaker 1: warm and fed and safe at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: that's all that matters. You promise me, you'll give me that. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'll do whatever you tell me. Way too much of
Speaker 1: that going on in this country, that's for sure. Yeah.
Speaker 1: But the one thing I took out of that piece was, Man,
Speaker 1: I think most white people and black people are great people.
Speaker 1: I really believe that in my heart. But I think
Speaker 1: our system is set up where our politicians, whether they're
Speaker 1: Republicans are Democrats, are designed to make us not like
Speaker 1: each other so they can keep their grasp of money
Speaker 1: and power. They divide and conquer. I truly believe in
Speaker 1: my heart most white people and black people are awesome people,
Speaker 1: but we're so stupid following our politicians, whether they are
Speaker 1: Republicans or Democrats, and their only job is, Hey, let's
Speaker 1: make these people not like each other. We don't live
Speaker 1: in their neighborhoods. We're all got money. Let's meet the
Speaker 1: whites and blacks not like each other. Let's make rich
Speaker 1: people and poor people not like each other's. Let's scrambled
Speaker 1: a middle class. I truly believe that, in my heart,
Speaker 1: we are led to believe that there are institutions like
Speaker 1: the media that are there to be a check on power,
Speaker 1: when they're actually the handmaidens of power. They're the assistance.
Speaker 1: They exist to be toadies for those in power, throne
Speaker 1: shiners to those who are making all the decisions. And
Speaker 1: what do those people do? The ones with real influence
Speaker 1: in this country, they turn everyday folks against each other
Speaker 1: with narratives like this with what's going on in Georgia
Speaker 1: and how that has ramifications for the rest of the country.
Speaker 1: You'll notice that there are people that talk so much
Speaker 1: about racism, and they do it in a way that
Speaker 1: always benefits their side of the political aisle, and it
Speaker 1: never makes things better when they say things that are untrue,
Speaker 1: when they exaggerate the state of racial division in this country.
Speaker 1: In fact, you start to sense that there are groups
Speaker 1: that talk about racism constantly who exacerbate racial divisions in
Speaker 1: this country. I mean start to wonder. You start to
Speaker 1: wonder Black Lives Matter, for example, is Black Lives Matter
Speaker 1: dedicated to healing? Is it? Is it really dedicated to
Speaker 1: bringing all Americans together on shared principles and basic human values,
Speaker 1: or is it a lot of anger and resentment weaponized
Speaker 1: for political purposes against the other in this case, anybody
Speaker 1: who's not a part of Black Lives Matter, which overwhelmingly
Speaker 1: falls along Republican and Democrat political lines. You see what's
Speaker 1: said by these organizations, By these groups, I mean, when
Speaker 1: is there going to be a real public discussion, a
Speaker 1: real national conversation you could say about the fact that
Speaker 1: we are We just came out of a year where
Speaker 1: there were the most murders in the United States since
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety five, huge spike nationwide in murders. Every major
Speaker 1: city pretty much in the country had a considerable somehow
Speaker 1: a horrific spike in shootings and murders. And it started
Speaker 1: not with the pandemic. It started right around May June
Speaker 1: of twenty twenty. What else started right around May June
Speaker 1: of twenty twenty. Everybody, we all know the answer to that, right.
Speaker 1: BLM cops are the bad guys. Cops are racist. There's
Speaker 1: so much racism in this country that there's a justification
Speaker 1: for mass looting and rioting, attacking innocent people. BLM as
Speaker 1: a movement, would would have you believe that the destruction
Speaker 1: of private businesses and even destruction of private homes, the
Speaker 1: attacks on federal court buildings, attacks on police officers, local
Speaker 1: and federal federal law enforcement. That somehow that's about combating racism,
Speaker 1: that that's going to make this a better a better country,
Speaker 1: a happier, safer country where we all get along. That's
Speaker 1: not true. But the Democrats benefited from the movement. They
Speaker 1: mobilized so many people on the base with the BLM
Speaker 1: movement last year. Remember there was a BLIM movement under
Speaker 1: the Obama administration, and then Obama, you know, was spent
Speaker 1: all this time, you know, demagoguing about how the movement
Speaker 1: had all these really good things about it, and you know,
Speaker 1: we're really coddling these left wing ideas about how cops
Speaker 1: are the problem, and these are ideas where people really
Speaker 1: suffer horribly. I mean, families are ruined because of these ideas,
Speaker 1: because you have district attorneys in places like San Francisco
Speaker 1: with this guy a chessa Buddin or Boodin or whatever
Speaker 1: who don't want to enforce the law against criminals, and
Speaker 1: then law abiding, good people feel more scared, and then
Speaker 1: the criminals feel emboldened and they do even more stuff,
Speaker 1: and they get away with more stuff and they're innocent
Speaker 1: victims of this. You would think, right, You would think
Speaker 1: that maybe people would start to look at what's happening
Speaker 1: with the attacks on Asian Americans that occurring in major
Speaker 1: cities across the country under a Biden administration and ask
Speaker 1: why is this happening now? Instead, they're desperate to tie
Speaker 1: it to Trump. I mean, the intellectual dishonesty around all
Speaker 1: of this is truly astonishing, but it's what they do.
Speaker 1: They find a way to tie it to Trump. I'm
Speaker 1: I'm concerned about whereld this goes because what's going to
Speaker 1: happen is that the Democrats are not good at governance.
Speaker 1: They're already showing us that. But the border crisis and
Speaker 1: many other things Democrats in charge, whether it's Cuomo in
Speaker 1: New York State, or you know Newsom in California, de
Speaker 1: Blasio in New York City, you know the mayor of Chicago.
Speaker 1: You see all these different Lory Lightfoot, you see all
Speaker 1: these different politicians. Democrats. They ruin places, they ruin them,
Speaker 1: they destroy them, and so then what happens is they
Speaker 1: come into power with all these ideas, but all the
Speaker 1: great stuff they're gonna do, but their ideas that overwhelmingly
Speaker 1: have been tried before and don't work. And then they
Speaker 1: turn around and then they say they find a way
Speaker 1: to blame other people. What's the best way to do that,
Speaker 1: going after narratives of resentment and division and turning people
Speaker 1: against each other who aren't actually making any of these decisions, right,
Speaker 1: Charles Barkley's right. The people in charge and this is
Speaker 1: much more common and much more reality with Democrat than
Speaker 1: his Republicans. The people in charge use race as a
Speaker 1: cover for what they're actually doing to the country. They
Speaker 1: use racial division for their own purposes, and they make
Speaker 1: it worse, and they know they're doing it. We wanted
Speaker 1: to ask Governor to Santis about the deal, but he
Speaker 1: climbed our request for an interview. We caught up with
Speaker 1: them south of Orlando. Public says, you know, donated one
Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars to your campaign, and then you rewarded
Speaker 1: them with the exclusive rights to distribute the vaccination in
Speaker 1: the first of all, what you're saying is right, that's
Speaker 1: a fake narrative. I met with the county mayor, I
Speaker 1: met with the administrator, I met with all the folks
Speaker 1: at Palm Beach County, and I said, here's some of
Speaker 1: the options. We can do more drive through sites, we
Speaker 1: can give more to hospitals, we can do the publics.
Speaker 1: And they said, we think that would be the easiest
Speaker 1: thing for our residents. But Melissa McKinley, sixty minutes caught
Speaker 1: in a smear. We could play the rest of that
Speaker 1: audio for you. Sixty minutes didn't on purpose because gummer
Speaker 1: to scientists when look at the way the sixty minutes
Speaker 1: reporter goes after him, didn't you do this? Didn't you
Speaker 1: get one hundred thousand dollars from publics? And that's why
Speaker 1: you'd now Descientist has done a better job of vaccinations
Speaker 1: than other comparable states in terms of size. So first
Speaker 1: of all, the results, Desandist has got better results, better
Speaker 1: economic results, better vaccine results. Desantists has put on a clinic,
Speaker 1: while all these other Democrat governors of big states are idiots,
Speaker 1: all right, Cuomo Newsome, Governor Murphy in New Jersey running
Speaker 1: for cover because they're clowns and we believe the science. Yeah, sure,
Speaker 1: you do, good job, morons, And they're coming after the Santists.
Speaker 1: He had better results, and now they're saying, well, let's
Speaker 1: put the results aside. Let's just look at why your
Speaker 1: results are better, because there's some corruption involved here. You know,
Speaker 1: how you got to the results is the problem. One
Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars donated to a pack by Publics grocery
Speaker 1: stores in Florida. So let's be very clear here about that.
Speaker 1: By the way, that exchanges from a few weeks ago.
Speaker 1: But sixty Minutes just came after him last night and
Speaker 1: is trying to make this case that there's something there's
Speaker 1: something wrong here with the vaccine rollout. Essentially, it's a favor,
Speaker 1: it's pay to play favor for donors to Ron De Santists.
Speaker 1: That's the that's the basic allegation, and this is absurd.
Speaker 1: Desantist goes into some detail about it. First off, CVS
Speaker 1: and Walgreens were given the vaccine to distribute to seniors
Speaker 1: before Public's got anything. So the first people to get
Speaker 1: something weren't even I mean, the first company to get
Speaker 1: vaccine distribute wasn't even Public's. Okay, start with that. Their mission,
Speaker 1: to Santists explains, was to get it to seniors as
Speaker 1: fast as possible. One thing you won't see a lot
Speaker 1: of people talking about is that while the case numbers
Speaker 1: in some places have gone up considerably, like New York,
Speaker 1: gone down in Texas in the last month, but gone
Speaker 1: up in New York, deaths overall over the fourteen day
Speaker 1: average are still going down. This is what should have
Speaker 1: been expected all along. This should have been expected all along,
Speaker 1: because if we get vaccines to seniors, we are going
Speaker 1: to cut the death rate from this virus dramatically. Based
Speaker 1: on the numbers, we can all see it, all right.
Speaker 1: If you are if you are over seventy, this is
Speaker 1: a very dangerous disease. If you are under fifty, it's
Speaker 1: not I just had it, folks, I just went through it.
Speaker 1: It's uncomfortable, you don't want to get it. But if
Speaker 1: you're under fifty, it's not a considerable risk unless you
Speaker 1: have some other health condition that you're adding into this,
Speaker 1: unless you have some extreme obesity and diabetes. But overall,
Speaker 1: and we're making overall decisions here about public health, it's
Speaker 1: senior citizens who were at real risk, and senior citizens
Speaker 1: have gotten vaccinated in great numbers. In Florida. I think
Speaker 1: they've gotten seventy five percent of seniors. Now I've gotten
Speaker 1: at least one dose, so dissentis is winning. You know,
Speaker 1: he's doing a good job. But they're saying that he
Speaker 1: gave it to publics and that means that somehow there's
Speaker 1: corruption here. Now. I don't live in Florida, but my
Speaker 1: two brothers have moved there because they hate New York
Speaker 1: so much because of what's gone on here and publics.
Speaker 1: There are eight hundred public's grocery stores in the state
Speaker 1: of Florida. So he already rolled it out to Walgreens
Speaker 1: and CBS for seniors and then to get it and
Speaker 1: while they were focused on that mission, then to get
Speaker 1: it to people as quickly as possible in the rest
Speaker 1: of the population. Right, So he had a focused mission
Speaker 1: focused protection on seniors in Florida, which is the most
Speaker 1: important thing by far, because that's who dies from COVID,
Speaker 1: really seniors. So he goes after that right away, which
Speaker 1: is the right move. I mean, this whole thing about
Speaker 1: getting twenty five year old public school teachers vaccinated, it's shameful.
Speaker 1: What oh this is litle scared it Give me a break.
Speaker 1: Every senior should have gotten vaccinated before any frontline worker
Speaker 1: other than healthcare workers who were dealing with people who
Speaker 1: were sick with this every day. You know, you've got
Speaker 1: public school teachers and it's not I'm gonna just pick
Speaker 1: on them, because there are others, you know, public sector
Speaker 1: employees do, but who are working from their couches, going, oh,
Speaker 1: I need the vaccine. I'm thirty and I'm scared. You're
Speaker 1: all you know, we've all got concerns about COVID, and yeah,
Speaker 1: we all interact with people who also are older. But
Speaker 1: getting the vaccine to those older people as soon as
Speaker 1: possible is how you save them, not by spreading it
Speaker 1: out among favored constituencies. And you know, in the state
Speaker 1: of Vermont, they're straight up making it, making access different
Speaker 1: based upon your ethnic group. This is disgraceful. It's not
Speaker 1: even a little bit legal. But is that anyone going
Speaker 1: to challenge it? Anyone gonna bring a federal lawsuit from
Speaker 1: a Biden administration against what the state of Vermont's doing. No, No,
Speaker 1: they are not. So. Yeah, your vaccine, your access to
Speaker 1: a life saving vaccine in some places, is affected by
Speaker 1: your race. That's what we've really come to as a country.
Speaker 1: And of course if you're non white, you have better
Speaker 1: access to it in those cases. In the case of Vermont,
Speaker 1: you know that that's what we're told. That's the way
Speaker 1: that it works. So back to Public's and the vaccine
Speaker 1: situation here. I mean, they had some story about how, oh,
Speaker 1: for some people in one poor part of Florida, they
Speaker 1: had to go it's a twenty five twenty five miles
Speaker 1: to Publics. They leave out that if you're a senior
Speaker 1: and you really need it, there's a CVS or a Walgreens.
Speaker 1: What is your local grocery, your local pharmacy or grocery
Speaker 1: store where the pharmacy in it. That's Florida's a model
Speaker 1: was get it to those places as fast as you
Speaker 1: can so you can get it to people. New York's model.
Speaker 1: I have a vaccine appointment in the Javits Convention Center
Speaker 1: and this is being run by New York City, New
Speaker 1: York State. I think I got it sixty days from
Speaker 1: now at like eight am. That's what That's what I
Speaker 1: have to deal there, And it was I had to
Speaker 1: get my family member. My brother in law helped you
Speaker 1: get online. But there's a mess. I can't walk to
Speaker 1: my drug store on the corner and get it. They
Speaker 1: can in Florida, but sixty minutes is there to suck
Speaker 1: up to those in power to do their part, like
Speaker 1: the sociopathic journal lunatics they are by attacking Governor Ron
Speaker 1: de Santists because he's made a mockery of who the
Speaker 1: journalistic establishment has been backing, what politicians they've been backing
Speaker 1: during this pandemic. Who they've been acting like the heroes
Speaker 1: are here. They're wrong, They're just flatly wrong, and so
Speaker 1: now they try to cover it up, They try to
Speaker 1: muddy up, try to dirty up Governor De Santists, because
Speaker 1: it's not even just about the COVID narrative and vaccinations.
Speaker 1: We all know what else is going on here. We
Speaker 1: all know that there's a very real possibility that De
Speaker 1: Santists could run for president in twenty twenty four and
Speaker 1: would be formidable, especially given the economic renaissance that his
Speaker 1: state is going through, the explosion of new business activity
Speaker 1: and people moving there. I mean, heck, I'm thinking about
Speaker 1: moving there, and I'm really thinking about it. I already
Speaker 1: have two brothers. I got brothers that have lived in
Speaker 1: New York their whole lives, never lived in another city
Speaker 1: in their lives except for college, and they've both moved
Speaker 1: there and they love it. I'm just I'm sitting here,
Speaker 1: I'm just telling you the truth. I mean, it's it's
Speaker 1: a it's a fascinating situation to see the journos saying
Speaker 1: what they're saying about this, given the reality that's played out,
Speaker 1: and given what Governor Ron DeSantis has shown us, they're
Speaker 1: just trying to tear this guy down. And it's because
Speaker 1: they were wrong and he's not their guy. And this
Speaker 1: sixty minutes piece, you know, sixty minutes maintained a you know,
Speaker 1: something of a reputation he or some kind of a
Speaker 1: reputation for not objectivity, not being as gross as some
Speaker 1: of the other journo outfits. But this was as bad
Speaker 1: as it gets. And they look foolish, they look idiotic.
Speaker 1: They cut out in the exchange they played last night,
Speaker 1: they cut out Ron descent is explaining in detail. You
Speaker 1: cannot hear his explanation. There are other prominent Democrat officials
Speaker 1: in Florida who have said DeSantis is right, guys, this
Speaker 1: is actually not what you're saying here about Public's wrote
Speaker 1: one hundred thousand dollars check to a pack and therefore
Speaker 1: that's why desantist gave them. This is stupid beyond words,
Speaker 1: It's just not true. Now, some Democrat hacks are going
Speaker 1: along with it, but there are some other Democrats who
Speaker 1: are saying, sorry, guys, this is not a real thing.
Speaker 1: But it's just a reminder that this is now. The
Speaker 1: media is just warring propaganda machines. And you have one
Speaker 1: side that has ninety five percent of the media real
Speaker 1: estate to have their story told, and so they'll just
Speaker 1: abuse it in a lie. And then you have other
Speaker 1: have five percent, which is the conservative Republican side of
Speaker 1: the news media, which I'm a part of, who's sitting
Speaker 1: here saying, look at what's going on. I mean, we
Speaker 1: are still in the grip of this COVID lockdown badness.
Speaker 1: And it's in large part because the media went all
Speaker 1: in on Fauciism, and Governor de Santists, thank god, was
Speaker 1: willing to stand up against this and say enough, we're
Speaker 1: not going to do this anymore. And we've seen the results.
Speaker 1: Desantists was right. Lockdowns failed, the journals and the Democrats
Speaker 1: were wrong. They're wrong. Now they never will accept this.
Speaker 1: They'll never say, yeah, you know why, you're right, because
Speaker 1: ultimately they think that they're just smarter than Republicans. That's
Speaker 1: a huge part of this they're better people and they're smarter,
Speaker 1: then they won't they won't let that go. They they've
Speaker 1: internalized that falsehood in a way where that's that's intrinsic
Speaker 1: now to who they are. I mean, it's just central
Speaker 1: to their perception of self. But Desantists has made a
Speaker 1: mockery of this just by doing a good job and
Speaker 1: keeping his state as open as he could and saving
Speaker 1: a lot of people, including a lot of seniors. Let
Speaker 1: me say that at this time we really are in
Speaker 1: a category five hurricane status with regard to the rest
Speaker 1: of the world. At this point, we will see in
Speaker 1: the next two weeks the highest number of cases reported
Speaker 1: globally since the beginning of the pandemic. In terms of
Speaker 1: the United States, we're just at the beginning of this surge.
Speaker 1: We haven't even really begun to see it yet. We
Speaker 1: have had over the course of the past a year,
Speaker 1: surges of cases that occur in the upper Midwest and
Speaker 1: the Northeast, and they subside. Then we see big increases
Speaker 1: in cases through all the southern sunbelled states. Then it
Speaker 1: subsides in the Northeast and Midwest, come back again, and
Speaker 1: we're now I think in that cycle where the Upper
Speaker 1: Midwest is just now beginning to start this for a surge.
Speaker 1: And I think it was a wake up call to
Speaker 1: everyone yesterday when Michigan reported out eighty four hundred new cases.
Speaker 1: And we're now seeing increasing number of severe illnesses. I
Speaker 1: see you hospitalizations individuals who are between thirty and fifty
Speaker 1: years of age who have not been vaccinated. Here's what's
Speaker 1: going on, folks. You have the same voices that are
Speaker 1: always telling us just wait two weeks, those same voices
Speaker 1: are coming out now to say we are we are
Speaker 1: on the doorstep of doom. Yeah. I think the actual
Speaker 1: phrase used by Wilenski at the chief of the CDC
Speaker 1: was I have this fear of impending doom. Now We've
Speaker 1: got right now in the United States because I am
Speaker 1: focused on what's going on in this country before any
Speaker 1: other country. Of course, right now in the United States,
Speaker 1: we have I believe, yes, eighteen percent of the country,
Speaker 1: according to the the New York Times, fully vaccinated, and thirty
Speaker 1: two percent of the country has at least one dose.
Speaker 1: You've had an eighteen percent uptick in cases in the US.
Speaker 1: This is as of today, eighteen percent uptick in cases
Speaker 1: over the last fourteen days, So there's been a new
Speaker 1: case spike, but you've had deaths go down. Okay, deaths
Speaker 1: go down twenty three percent over that same period. This
Speaker 1: is what we should have expected to happen at some
Speaker 1: level where you have you have the people who are
Speaker 1: at risk who because of vaccinations, there are fewer of
Speaker 1: them getting it, which means even while cases go up,
Speaker 1: deaths go down, cases and death should be going up
Speaker 1: side by side. Right Doesn't that make sense? You know,
Speaker 1: if you have one hundred new people who get the
Speaker 1: who get the virus and two of them die on average, well,
Speaker 1: then if you have a thousand new cases, right then
Speaker 1: you should have at least twenty people who dies. But
Speaker 1: how is it you can have a thousand cases but
Speaker 1: you have only you know, three people die? Well, what's
Speaker 1: going on? And I'm making up the numbers there, But
Speaker 1: just to illustrate the point, it's because the people who
Speaker 1: are at risk of dying from this are getting vaccinated.
Speaker 1: So this is actually a showing us a good thing.
Speaker 1: This is showing us what we should expect to happen
Speaker 1: here as more and more of the at risk population
Speaker 1: is vaccinated and were we had two hundred and seventy
Speaker 1: seven deaths as of April fourth. You look at for example,
Speaker 1: that that's nationwide. On January twenty first, we had four thousand,
Speaker 1: one hundred and thirty five deaths. So what's with all
Speaker 1: the panic? Oh, the rest of the world, the rest
Speaker 1: of the world, Why are they doing this? We've gone
Speaker 1: from four thousand deaths a day in January to two
Speaker 1: hundred and seventy seven deaths yesterday. But do you get
Speaker 1: the feeling that they're willing to, like, let their little
Speaker 1: let they're just reezy, little little bureaucrat fingers off you,
Speaker 1: off your face, right off the mask on your face.
Speaker 1: Do you feel like they're they'll finally just stop. No, No,
Speaker 1: they're turning up the panic. You see, they're turning up
Speaker 1: the panic. And it's just it's disgraceful. It's disgraceful because
Speaker 1: it's not root of the numbers. I told you and
Speaker 1: that some of you will remember this guy. I very appreciative.
Speaker 1: I have so many of you listening every day. I
Speaker 1: told you now it was I guess it would have
Speaker 1: been in the beginning of March. I told you that
Speaker 1: we would revisit in six weeks. The Texas Mask Mandate
Speaker 1: and the end of the Texas Mask Mandate, we would
Speaker 1: revisit how things are going, and we would actually look
Speaker 1: at this. And I said, if I'm wrong, I'll admit it.
Speaker 1: But I'm telling you right now, Texas cases, dat's hospitalizations
Speaker 1: will continue to go down even after the Holy Mask
Speaker 1: Mandate all the Mask mandate, right cannot get rid of it.
Speaker 1: Even if the mask Mandate goes away, which it did,
Speaker 1: cases will still go down. Did what did Biden say?
Speaker 1: Neanderthal thinking bids a moron? But you know what did
Speaker 1: Biden say? Neanderthal thinking? What did Faucio? You know, without
Speaker 1: the measures and the mitigation, you know, we're not going
Speaker 1: to be in a place where we know we could
Speaker 1: hit a plateau, and when the plateau goes up or down,
Speaker 1: that's no longer a plateau. You know what ended up happening.
Speaker 1: I told you we revisit it in six weeks. It's
Speaker 1: been four weeks. Anybody want to guess cases in the
Speaker 1: state of Texas about down forty percent? I think it's
Speaker 1: thirty seven or thirty eight percent is the number that
Speaker 1: I saw, But let's call it forty percent down. It's
Speaker 1: Neanderthal thinking. But cases are down forty Do they ever
Speaker 1: have to account for this? Does anyone ever hold them
Speaker 1: to account for their stupidity, for their wrongness? No, of
Speaker 1: course not. Never, never happens. Now they're saying, this is
Speaker 1: what I love. They say, oh, who, but the mask
Speaker 1: mandate's gone, but some people are still masking, and the
Speaker 1: cities are still having a mask mandate and some businesses. Okay,
Speaker 1: you can't have it both ways, though. You can't say
Speaker 1: the elimination of a statewide mask mandate is neanderthal thinking
Speaker 1: that will kill people and it's all Republicans fault, and
Speaker 1: then a month later say, well, actually, a mask mandate
Speaker 1: at the state level doesn't mean anything. You're wrong on
Speaker 1: one count, right, You just got to pick which one
Speaker 1: if you're saying that stuff. But I told them we
Speaker 1: revisit it. We are forty percent down. Once again, the
Speaker 1: Fauciite consensus was appallingly wrong, because that little that little
Speaker 1: jerk is the worst, most ineffectual bureaucrat in the history
Speaker 1: of the universe. One of my big frustrations has been
Speaker 1: that there's been no real debate over the measures taken
Speaker 1: to suppress COVID nineteen in this country. It's just do
Speaker 1: what I say, right, That's what faucism is. It's I'm
Speaker 1: an expert. There's science. Listen to the science, right, as
Speaker 1: if that's a thing, it's something you can just invoke
Speaker 1: to shut down discussion. That's not the way it should work.
Speaker 1: But it's what has happened in this country. And it's
Speaker 1: really frustrating to me because these people have been wrong.
Speaker 1: They've been wrong over and over again, and yet they
Speaker 1: have no consequences for this whatsoever. They don't suffer consequences.
Speaker 1: You do. Your business might be gone, you have freedoms
Speaker 1: that are shut down, may not even be able to
Speaker 1: gather together with family members, depending on where you are
Speaker 1: and what you're trying to do. This is just outrageous.
Speaker 1: It's Unamerican, deeply unamerican. What's happened. And the social media
Speaker 1: companies have been pushing this all along. I mean, they
Speaker 1: have been at the forefront of making sure that we
Speaker 1: can have free and open debate. They hire these bs
Speaker 1: fact checkers. It's nonsense. So censorship on social media sites
Speaker 1: is very real, and the left is trying to remove
Speaker 1: any voices that don't agree with the Fauci consensus or
Speaker 1: any left wing interest area. For that matter. So instead
Speaker 1: of letting social media sites continue to abuse you in
Speaker 1: this way, why not revoke their right to your data?
Speaker 1: Because these free to access sites like Facebook make all
Speaker 1: their money by tracking your searches, video history, and everything
Speaker 1: you click on, and then they sell your valuable data.
Speaker 1: When you use express vpn, you anonymize much of your
Speaker 1: online presence by hiding your IP address. That makes your
Speaker 1: activity much more difficult to trace and sell to advertisers.
Speaker 1: At Express vpn is so easy to set up. You
Speaker 1: just tap one button on your phone or computer and
Speaker 1: you're protected. Express vpn also encrypts one one hundred percent
Speaker 1: of your data to protect you from hackers and internet
Speaker 1: bad guys. It's finally time to say no to censorship
Speaker 1: and take back your online privacy at Express vpn dot
Speaker 1: com slash buck. By visiting my special link, you'll get
Speaker 1: an extra three months of Express VPN service for free. Again,
Speaker 1: that's Express vpn dot com slash buck. Express vpn dot
Speaker 1: com slash buck. To protect your data today, so chose
Speaker 1: explaining us. Lady and gentlemen, This gathering is unfortunately lawful,
Speaker 1: unlawful under the coronavirus regulations we have. Currently you are
Speaker 1: not allowed to meet inside with this many people under
Speaker 1: law At this moment in time, you need to go home.
Speaker 1: Failure to comply with this direction to leave and go
Speaker 1: to your home address ultimately could lead you to be
Speaker 1: fined two hundred pounds or if you to give your
Speaker 1: details to you being arrested. I suggest, ladies and gentlemen,
Speaker 1: though it is quite as it is good Friday, and
Speaker 1: I appreciate you would like to worship that this gathering
Speaker 1: is unlawful, so please may you leave. What does fascism
Speaker 1: sound like in the world today? You're a wonder about that,
Speaker 1: what would actually sound because I think it sounds kind
Speaker 1: of like that guy. I think it sounds like some
Speaker 1: taxpayer funded bureaucrat in this case in the UK saying
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry. I know that it's good Friday and
Speaker 1: you actually believe you have a right to worship and
Speaker 1: commune with your God and your religious community. But you know,
Speaker 1: we have these bureaucrats and lab coats who are so
Speaker 1: so so worried about you getting this virus, and they've
Speaker 1: been so correct on everything, haven't they Except they're morons
Speaker 1: and they're always wrong. But anyway, if you don't stop
Speaker 1: worshiping your God right now, We're going to find and
Speaker 1: maybe arrest you. It's just what is happening. Not in
Speaker 1: authoritarian regimes, or at least regimes we would speak of
Speaker 1: as such. It's happened in the United Kingdom. It's happening
Speaker 1: here in America. We've had churches, churches and other religious
Speaker 1: services shut down for months because of the Fauciite consensus.
Speaker 1: I mean, what about just masks and social distancing. That's
Speaker 1: not enough. That's not enough. No notice how they're they're
Speaker 1: making judgments about risk and policy and health, but acting
Speaker 1: like it's just science. I'm just listening to the science.
Speaker 1: And it's even worse than the UK. At least here
Speaker 1: we can complain about the infringements on our first amount.
Speaker 1: At least here we can complain about the infringements on
Speaker 1: our right to worship. They don't even have that in
Speaker 1: the UK. It's just shut up and do what you're told.
Speaker 1: You know, we've got we've got health problems, health consience here,
Speaker 1: and so just gonna tell you can't be in Chech anymore.
Speaker 1: We'll go home. They're shutting down a good Friday service, folks,
Speaker 1: because of COVID. I mean what else do you have
Speaker 1: to know about what these petty tyrants, these totalitarians are
Speaker 1: willing to do this for a virus with a ninety
Speaker 1: nine percent survival rate that's already ripped through the entire
Speaker 1: Western world. I mean, I was seeing I saw an
Speaker 1: analysis in the Wall Street Journal. You know, I've been
Speaker 1: telling you things like this all along. Everyone says, all
Speaker 1: there's thirty million cases. The the good faith estimate of
Speaker 1: how many actual infections we catch versus the ones that
Speaker 1: are tested and proven is anywhere from one in five
Speaker 1: to one in ten right now, right, so, we got
Speaker 1: thirty million confirmed, If we got one in five that
Speaker 1: are that are actually being caught, that means, folks, that
Speaker 1: we're at one hundred and fifty million. That means half
Speaker 1: the country has already been infected. You understand that right now,
Speaker 1: that's an estimate. But given they say forty percent of
Speaker 1: cases are asymptomatic, wouldn't that make sense? Wouldn't that make sense?
Speaker 1: Do you really think that everyone who's had this has
Speaker 1: been tested that they've caught it? Of course not so.
Speaker 1: Even if it's not even quite one hundred and fifty million.
Speaker 1: If it's one hundred million people, this is considered success
Speaker 1: in stopping this better this virus. If thirty percent of
Speaker 1: America has gotten this, and think about how this has
Speaker 1: been the case in so many other parts of the world,
Speaker 1: think about what this is men in other countries too.
Speaker 1: We've been led to believe we listen to the people
Speaker 1: in charge, will be safe. That is a lie. They
Speaker 1: cannot protect you. They have not protected you, and they
Speaker 1: have completely stolen your freedom. They have infringed on your
Speaker 1: rights under this false promise. It's appalling. It should be
Speaker 1: ashamed of themselves, but they're not. They think that they're heroes.
Speaker 1: I think they've done a great job well in Canada.
Speaker 1: I mean I love this. This is a great video
Speaker 1: and Canada over the remember this the holiest weekend of
Speaker 1: the year for Christians, holiest weekend of the year, Good Friday,
Speaker 1: Easter Sunday. And you had the leader of a church
Speaker 1: in Canada who when the Calgary police showed up to
Speaker 1: do a little inspection inside the church of you know
Speaker 1: how many people are there because you know God forbid
Speaker 1: that you want to gather, gather with your co religionists
Speaker 1: and praise God on Easter Sunday. Here is how he
Speaker 1: this church leader responded to Justin Trudeau's little fascist brigade
Speaker 1: showing up to try to shut down a church because
Speaker 1: of social distancings. If that's really saving anybody or anything,
Speaker 1: it's all bull's. Here's how it went though, and we
Speaker 1: could all learn something from this guy. Play one, Please
Speaker 1: get out, get out of this property immediately. Get out.
Speaker 1: Get out of this property, immediately out. I don't want
Speaker 1: to hear anything out of this property. Immediately. I don't
Speaker 1: want to hear a word out out out of this
Speaker 1: property immediately until you'll come back with the warrant. Out
Speaker 1: out out out out out of this property. Immediately out,
Speaker 1: immediately go out and don't come back. Don't. I don't
Speaker 1: want to talk to you. Not a word out of
Speaker 1: this property. Out of this property, immediately out. I don't
Speaker 1: care what you have to say out out out of
Speaker 1: this property or Nazis out out. Get stopper is not
Speaker 1: allowed here. Immediately, get stopper is not allowed out. Do
Speaker 1: you understand English, Get out of this property. I love it, honestly,
Speaker 1: I mean this guy. I want to send him a
Speaker 1: thank you email just for the Catharsis of you know. Look,
Speaker 1: and people will say, oh buck, they're just doing their jobs.
Speaker 1: The cops don't actually have to show up and harass
Speaker 1: a church service. They don't have to do that. They
Speaker 1: could say they showed up and just you know, made
Speaker 1: sure everything was okay, and they could leave. They don't
Speaker 1: have to be parts of this fascism. They don't have
Speaker 1: to do it. But this guy understands, Okay, no, no,
Speaker 1: you know, good faith, no, no, decency from the other
Speaker 1: side has to be responded to in the harshest possible terms.
Speaker 1: Don't give them an inch, don't give them any leeway.
Speaker 1: They've already pushed way too far. You want to come
Speaker 1: in here, it's private property. I need a warrant, I
Speaker 1: need a court order. And by the way, they may
Speaker 1: go and get them, because that's where a bunch of
Speaker 1: psychos they are about COVID. But go get go, get
Speaker 1: your court warrant. You're you're not actually allowed to come
Speaker 1: in here. Sorry, you're not welcome in this church, fascist thugs.
Speaker 1: This is the only this is the only way this stops.
Speaker 1: You know. Fauci just said recently that they're gonna they're
Speaker 1: hoping that maybe you can get rid of your masks
Speaker 1: in some congregate settings by the end of the year.
Speaker 1: By the end of this year, you're we're masking a
Speaker 1: ball summer all fall, end of the year, maybe they
Speaker 1: could stop it, or even some places, as I've told you,
Speaker 1: that won't happen. They say, end of the year. Do
Speaker 1: you really think they're not going to move the goalposts
Speaker 1: on this? They say end of the year. What do
Speaker 1: they really mean next summer? Not this summer? Coming up?
Speaker 1: Next summer? At July twenty twenty two, people will stop
Speaker 1: being you know, little babies clinging to their masks. Mask.
Speaker 1: He's gonna save us. It didn't save you, It hasn't
Speaker 1: saved us. What else do they have to see? The
Speaker 1: mandates haven't worked. I just want to know what do
Speaker 1: they really think? And we do lose something in this process.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's degrading. It's humiliating that a government authorities
Speaker 1: told me I have to go go put a stupid
Speaker 1: little cloth mask on. That air is going up. I'm
Speaker 1: below and I'm breathing in you know, whatever's in the
Speaker 1: air around me. But I have to put this on
Speaker 1: or else I'm gonna be fined or arrested. People think
Speaker 1: this is okay, this is normal, This is insane. A
Speaker 1: hundred years of pandemic planning, one hundred years of medical
Speaker 1: research know how in science was abandoned in a moment
Speaker 1: of panic a year ago, and we have not yet
Speaker 1: come to grips with that. The public health authorities in
Speaker 1: this country did not know how to protect us, did
Speaker 1: not know what to do, did not have an answer,
Speaker 1: And social media and big tech and the Democrat Party
Speaker 1: all leverage this for political purposes and for the purposes
Speaker 1: of their own control, to terrify the population, all right,
Speaker 1: to terrify people into compliance, and to shut down voices
Speaker 1: like mine who have been saying, hold on a second,
Speaker 1: can we think about this, Can we speak a little bit?
Speaker 1: Can we talk a little more about this before we
Speaker 1: just decide that we're going to accept whatever is put
Speaker 1: forward here as though it's gospel, as though it's truth. No,
Speaker 1: they wanted it all shut down, do what they say
Speaker 1: or else, and they're not willing to give up that power.
Speaker 1: That must to people that really believe in state control.
Speaker 1: This must have been an incredibly intoxicating experience. It has
Speaker 1: been for Democrats. Well, look, I guess I should be flattered.
Speaker 1: People are coming because I'm the nice guy. That's the
Speaker 1: reason why it's happening that I'm a decent man, or
Speaker 1: however is phrased that you know, that's why they're coming,
Speaker 1: because no, Biden's a good guy. Truth of the matter is,
Speaker 1: nothing has changed as many people came. Twenty eight percent
Speaker 1: increase in children of the border in my administration, thirty
Speaker 1: one in the last year of nineteen before the pandemic.
Speaker 1: In the Trump administration. It happens every single solitary year.
Speaker 1: It's not true what he's saying, or rather he's being
Speaker 1: disingenuous as he says it. He's misleading you. They're setting records.
Speaker 1: I mean, this would be like saying, oh, there's a
Speaker 1: legal immigration ever all the time. Okay, yeah, but there's
Speaker 1: more now there ever has been before. When it comes
Speaker 1: to unaccompanied miners. You're setting records. Biden, you're number one, buddy.
Speaker 1: When it comes to open borders, this and this is here.
Speaker 1: Here's such a big part of this. Democrats want open borders,
Speaker 1: but they don't want the responsibility of having to advocate
Speaker 1: for it and defend it openly. They want a facto
Speaker 1: open borders. People want to come here, they can come here.
Speaker 1: We still have laws, but the laws aren't really enforced.
Speaker 1: The laws aren't really taken seriously. That is their decision,
Speaker 1: that's what they want. That's what's really happening, and it's
Speaker 1: why you have all this bizarre messaging from the Biden administration.
Speaker 1: It just doesn't really seem to make sense. What is
Speaker 1: the Biden administration trying to tell us that this is
Speaker 1: the same as it always is, that nothing is going
Speaker 1: on in the border. Really, this is just business as usual.
Speaker 1: I mean, we're not that dumb, right, they understand this,
Speaker 1: But that's what their messaging has has had to resort to.
Speaker 1: That's the kind of stuff that's being said to me.
Speaker 1: Here's the secretary of DHS may york Us on the
Speaker 1: Biden administration refusing to recognize this as a crisis. Doesn't
Speaker 1: like that word play eighteen. So it's a secretary. The
Speaker 1: administration seems to be sort of haggling over a language.
Speaker 1: It's not a crisis. Some have called it a challenge.
Speaker 1: Why not just say flat out what's happening on the
Speaker 1: southern border is a crisis, Jonathan. We're not haggling over language.
Speaker 1: We're focused on mission, and that is securing the border.
Speaker 1: And the border is secure, the border is closed and
Speaker 1: that's what we're focused on, and I will not use
Speaker 1: language that is not applicable. We have dealt with surges
Speaker 1: in migration at the border before. We have a plan.
Speaker 1: We are executing our plan. We will succeed. We know
Speaker 1: what to do, we are doing it, and that is
Speaker 1: the fact of the matter. I mean, that's just a
Speaker 1: bunch of bull, right, we all get that. Oh no,
Speaker 1: we're just focused on results, but we're not focused on language.
Speaker 1: That's not true. They've been playing word games here all along.
Speaker 1: They've been very dishonest about what's happening at the border
Speaker 1: because they don't want the general public to understand just
Speaker 1: what a mess, just what a disaster it has actually become.
Speaker 1: And so they do something and they tell you the
Speaker 1: exact opposite it of what it actually is. Right, they
Speaker 1: kick the border wide open. They remove the necessary protections
Speaker 1: for the border that the Trump administration put in place
Speaker 1: to stop as serge. Just like this, they remove that stuff,
Speaker 1: and then bad things happen. The Democrats turn around and say, oh,
Speaker 1: but you know, this is just the way it has
Speaker 1: to be. This is this is us fixing things. Wait
Speaker 1: what you broke it? You're not fixing it. We're living
Speaker 1: in the upside down world. Friends, We're living in a
Speaker 1: place where where there's just no there's really no value
Speaker 1: placed on truth. That does not help the agenda. If
Speaker 1: if the truth or if the facts, if the information
Speaker 1: as it actually is does not advance the Democrat narrative
Speaker 1: of what is needed in this country and who needs
Speaker 1: to be in charge in this country, it gets cast aside.
Speaker 1: They just do not care. They just don't care. I mean,
Speaker 1: here's I meant to get this before. Here's Kaylee mckinenny
Speaker 1: over Fox News talking about the comparison that should be
Speaker 1: made all the time now, not just at the border,
Speaker 1: but on state policies with regard to COVID about what's
Speaker 1: happening in California versus what's happening in Florida or New
Speaker 1: York in Florida. And we've we've run an experiment now
Speaker 1: as a country, the states or laboratories of our democracy, right,
Speaker 1: we've seen what different states have done to deal with
Speaker 1: this pandemic. Here's what that's actually resulted in. Play nine. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Governor DeSantis is exactly right as he has been all
Speaker 1: throughout this pandemic. You know, we've seen this modeled for
Speaker 1: the last year, the freedom model of dealing with the pandemic,
Speaker 1: which is embodied by Florida and Ronda Santis, and then
Speaker 1: the coercion control model embodied by Governor Newsom of California.
Speaker 1: I'm Governor Cuomo of New York, and look who turned
Speaker 1: out to be right all along? The freedom model allowing
Speaker 1: people to live their lives without mask, mandates without owners,
Speaker 1: regulations and lockdowns that go on and on and on,
Speaker 1: closing churches, and now this vaccine passport. It's just another
Speaker 1: way to control the American people. It's absolutely wrong. It's
Speaker 1: antithetical to freedom, it's antithetical to the American way. And
Speaker 1: good for Governor Descantists for recognizing it. And yet who
Speaker 1: are they attacking in the media. Who are they trying
Speaker 1: to make into a villain during this pandemic? Well, of
Speaker 1: course the Republican The results you see don't really matter
Speaker 1: to them. They don't care what the results are. It
Speaker 1: does not matter to them how many people were saved
Speaker 1: by the Descantists model versus what they did in New
Speaker 1: York and California. What matters is whose team is helped
Speaker 1: by this, And if Team Democrat is helped, then it's great.
Speaker 1: If not, well, then they take the opposite They take
Speaker 1: the opposite approach, and it's it's a sad thing to
Speaker 1: see at a time when you'd think that a country
Speaker 1: would come together in facing a common enemy here which
Speaker 1: this virus is a common enemy. Instead, it's been used
Speaker 1: to divide us and turn us against each other. And
Speaker 1: the lies from the establishment, the lies from institutions that
Speaker 1: are supposed to be supporting and helping us deal with this,
Speaker 1: are unforgivable. Unforgivable. The mainstream media should never recover from
Speaker 1: what it has done during this pandemic. Have we reached
Speaker 1: a tipping point here where all of a sudden, more
Speaker 1: and more people in the GOP are going to realize
Speaker 1: that we can either be in a two way boycott
Speaker 1: war or a one way fight, but those seemed to
Speaker 1: be the choices. We'll get into that and also some
Speaker 1: updates on HR one, which the Democrats are desperate to
Speaker 1: make into law if they can. Our friend Pedro Gonzalez
Speaker 1: is with us now. He's a senior writer at American Greatness. Pedro,
Speaker 1: great to have you, Oh, always going to be on book.
Speaker 1: So let's start with the MLB boycott note from the
Speaker 1: President that camp former President Trump rather that came out
Speaker 1: over the weekend. Do you do you think that this
Speaker 1: is something that the people are are starting to change?
Speaker 1: You know, on the right, we have this we don't
Speaker 1: boycott even if the other side does mentality that's not
Speaker 1: working out so well for us right, And it's not
Speaker 1: clear to me that that mentality is actually the mentality
Speaker 1: of your everyday American who votes Republican, or if it's
Speaker 1: what the let's say conservative intellectual class wants to wants
Speaker 1: to make them believe. So that's not clear, and it
Speaker 1: would actually be interesting to dive into that and see
Speaker 1: what the what the reality is. My suspicion is that
Speaker 1: everyday Americans, being common sense people, understand that if a
Speaker 1: company is actively doing things that hurt me or that
Speaker 1: are harmful to what I still consider the American way
Speaker 1: of life, than it stands to reason, then I'm just
Speaker 1: not going to I'm not going to give them my money.
Speaker 1: And it's always been bizarre to me that you have
Speaker 1: these let's call them activists or adiologues or pundance whatever,
Speaker 1: who who will militantly say no, we don't boycott. That's
Speaker 1: something that the socialist left does well Ironically, that helps
Speaker 1: no one more than the so called socialist left, because
Speaker 1: it's very clear now that most of the country's biggest
Speaker 1: corporations back so called socialism. I mean, the you know,
Speaker 1: we can debate over whether it actually is or is
Speaker 1: on socialism, but I think it's very clear now that
Speaker 1: the biggest corporations in this country support the left or
Speaker 1: they pay lip service to the left, and they're very
Speaker 1: much aligned with the Democratic Party. You can you can
Speaker 1: get receipts for this, right, Biden had more billionaire backers
Speaker 1: than Trump did, so there's no debate about that. And
Speaker 1: like you said it, we're not winning with this bizarre
Speaker 1: mentality of we basically we can't fight back, because that's
Speaker 1: what's saying you can't boycott really means is you're not
Speaker 1: allowed to fight back. You have to continue patronizing these
Speaker 1: organizations that are trying to destroy you. Do you think
Speaker 1: that corporations have have they gone more woke because of
Speaker 1: the social media pressure that's brought on them? A Well,
Speaker 1: how do we get to this point where where what
Speaker 1: you'd think of is these Well, first of all, I
Speaker 1: think Coca Cola's CEO is a British guy, right, But
Speaker 1: you think of these great American companies out there, you know,
Speaker 1: these these brands that we all know, and they're they're
Speaker 1: now taking political positions that are in line with what
Speaker 1: the the average MSNBC viewer might think. How did we
Speaker 1: get to this point? I think this has been actually
Speaker 1: a long time coming. And it's funny there there was this,
Speaker 1: you can call it a publicity stunt, but Ralph Nader
Speaker 1: sent out a letter to the CEOs of the of
Speaker 1: the I think the twenty largest co operations and asked
Speaker 1: them if if they would agree to stand up at
Speaker 1: the beginning of their annual shareholder meetings on the behalf
Speaker 1: of the United States, which you know they have built
Speaker 1: their fortunes on, say the pledge of allegiance. And the
Speaker 1: mixture was actually the response mixture was really underwhelming. Most
Speaker 1: basically on balance, most of the CEOs of America's biggest
Speaker 1: companies either did not respond or a couple of a
Speaker 1: couple of them were actually indignant by the request, like
Speaker 1: they basically compared it to loyalty oats that you would
Speaker 1: have in like like a fascist country or something like that.
Speaker 1: And this was in the nineties. I think, so this
Speaker 1: has been actually happening for a long time, And as
Speaker 1: far as the woke aspect, I think that it woke
Speaker 1: in our minds as a very specific meaning, and I
Speaker 1: think we associate with black lives matter, which is correct.
Speaker 1: But as far as being kind of like left, I
Speaker 1: think that this is also nothing new. Corporations, especially like
Speaker 1: the agricultural industry, have for a long time. I'm supported
Speaker 1: things like mass immigration because mass immigration means cheap labor.
Speaker 1: Cheap labor means bigger bottom lines. Who cares what it
Speaker 1: does to the American worker, right, It's all about that
Speaker 1: bigger profit. And I think the same is true for
Speaker 1: things like even affirmative action. Since the nineties, we've known
Speaker 1: and probably even before that, that actually corporations were huge
Speaker 1: fans of affirmative action because what does that mean? More
Speaker 1: bodies in the workplace, bigger bottom lines, more productivity. So
Speaker 1: I think it's just kind of really bubbled over to
Speaker 1: a point where we can't ignore this anymore. Literally, when
Speaker 1: you have people rioting and burning down stores at homes,
Speaker 1: and you've got Facebook, Apple CEO, and Amazon, all these
Speaker 1: huge corporations saying we stand with plaque lives matter as
Speaker 1: they're burning down Mom and pops across the country. We're
Speaker 1: speaking of Pedro Gonzalez. He is a seer writer for
Speaker 1: American Greatness, and Pedro I have to wonder what is
Speaker 1: what is the what is the Republican Party? I understand
Speaker 1: that we're Republicans are out of power right now, what
Speaker 1: does it stand for right now? Well, what's the case
Speaker 1: that we're really making. It seems like we complain about
Speaker 1: the overreach of the left sometimes, but we don't really
Speaker 1: come out with, well, what are we going to do?
Speaker 1: Right And I think that there's an ongoing identity crisis
Speaker 1: in the GOP, and you've got a few guys that
Speaker 1: I think are trying to go in a new direction
Speaker 1: and test new waters, like Rhonda Santis, maybe to an extent,
Speaker 1: Josh Holly, But I think the Santis is kind of
Speaker 1: in the lead here, even if he doesn't want to be,
Speaker 1: and if he doesn't see himself as doing that, I
Speaker 1: think just by by his actions, that's kind of where
Speaker 1: he's positioned himself. But I think that the GOP establishment,
Speaker 1: these these legacy institutions and actors, they want to continue
Speaker 1: being the party of big business, which is obviously a
Speaker 1: problem because big business doesn't really I mean, obviously the
Speaker 1: Koch Brothers, people like that and entities like that are
Speaker 1: still aligned with the GOP. We also give money to Democrats.
Speaker 1: But I think you get what I'm saying here. The
Speaker 1: GOP's is nonetheless in this weird position where they want
Speaker 1: to continue being the party of tax cuts, the party
Speaker 1: of kind of avoiding hot button social issues by framing
Speaker 1: them as economic ones, like the transgender sports issue. You know, well,
Speaker 1: we don't care what transgender people do. They compete in
Speaker 1: sports as long as the government's not subsidizing it somehow.
Speaker 1: So the GOP wants to do this, but it's just
Speaker 1: impossible to avoid this problem now where one corporations are
Speaker 1: doing what like Delta and the MLB have done, which
Speaker 1: is openly signal against GOOP policies, going even further and
Speaker 1: saying these are racist policies, these are in other words,
Speaker 1: these are evil policies, and then also basically doing things
Speaker 1: that are really offensive to the GOP's base. And so
Speaker 1: again the Republican Party is it's almost like Stockholm syndrome,
Speaker 1: like there's a large part of it that just cannot
Speaker 1: get over. It's and I think there's obviously a lot
Speaker 1: of money involved here. I think that's that's probably the
Speaker 1: most important point. But the GOP is having a really
Speaker 1: difficult time figuring out where it's going and what it
Speaker 1: stands for. Do you think, and we're speaking to Pedro
Speaker 1: Gonzalez is a senior writer at American Greatness. Pedri, do
Speaker 1: do you think that we've really come to grips with
Speaker 1: what did and did not happen in the election and
Speaker 1: also what did and did not happen under Trump? In
Speaker 1: the sense that you know, I have people who they'll
Speaker 1: they'll say, well, Trump kept all of his promises, and
Speaker 1: I say, look, you can make a case that Trump
Speaker 1: did some really really good things, and I have made
Speaker 1: that case, but he definitely didn't keep all of his promises.
Speaker 1: And I worry that right now. I mean, just to
Speaker 1: my earlier question to you about what is GEOP right now,
Speaker 1: that there's this sense that any moment now Trump is
Speaker 1: going to kind of emerge from Mara Lago exile, and
Speaker 1: you know, all this MAGA stuff will come back and
Speaker 1: that will be the opposition. I don't know. I don't
Speaker 1: think that's going to happen. But also I don't know
Speaker 1: if that would work the way that people think that
Speaker 1: it would, right. I agree, And this is difficult for
Speaker 1: a lot of people, and a lot of people who
Speaker 1: are well meaning and understandably because the field is bereft
Speaker 1: of champions. They put a lot of hope in Trump
Speaker 1: and they still have that hope that he's going to
Speaker 1: come back like Napoleon from exile or something, but maybe
Speaker 1: with the same results. Right. And I think it's important
Speaker 1: too for these people to follow the money because even
Speaker 1: with Trump, this is true, especially with Trump, actually don't
Speaker 1: just listen to what like Trump is saying, don't listen
Speaker 1: to what people that are you know, identify as MAGA
Speaker 1: are saying. Really pay attention to what Trump has been
Speaker 1: doing with your money, because that is I think a
Speaker 1: good metric for results, right. And I've written about this.
Speaker 1: There's another even more recent story about this. Basically, a
Speaker 1: whole lot of money has been raised by the Trump
Speaker 1: Project through his own political action committees and through joint
Speaker 1: fundraising projects with the RNC, and basically a lot of
Speaker 1: money was raised on, for example, overturning the outcome of
Speaker 1: the election after November, but it looks like on balance,
Speaker 1: a lot of that money actually did not go to
Speaker 1: anything election related, and instead it kind of vanished as
Speaker 1: payments to friends, family, allies paying down campaign debt. Actually
Speaker 1: a lot of it looks like a significant amount of
Speaker 1: the money that was raised after November third to litigate
Speaker 1: the election results actually went as refund to Republican voters
Speaker 1: Trump supporters who unwittingly were enrolled in recurring donations, so
Speaker 1: they realized that a five hundred donations ended up being
Speaker 1: thousands of dollars because the fine print said that if
Speaker 1: you donate once, you're actually going to get signed up
Speaker 1: for recurring donations. And when these people would go through
Speaker 1: the complicated process of demanding a refund, the money that
Speaker 1: was raised to stop to steal actually went to subsidizing
Speaker 1: the cost of those refunds. And so I think this
Speaker 1: is a real indictment of the whole Trump project and
Speaker 1: how it ended. And again, this matters because these are
Speaker 1: people that you know, these are not wealthy people. These
Speaker 1: are like middle income, lower income people that gave money
Speaker 1: to Trump because they expected results and they didn't get them.
Speaker 1: And I think that this is probably something that the
Speaker 1: most important way to have this conversation is, Look, he's
Speaker 1: saying what you want to hear, but is he actually
Speaker 1: doing what he says he's going to be doing, especially
Speaker 1: with the money that you give and so forth. The
Speaker 1: answers now, and I think that we all need to
Speaker 1: be very honest about what the other side is doing
Speaker 1: to us, on what our own side is doing too.
Speaker 1: I think there's not nearly enough of that these days.
Speaker 1: Check out American Greatness. Our friend Pedro Gonzalez continuing to
Speaker 1: write their American Greatest dot com. Pedro, thanks so much
Speaker 1: for joining me and great to have you on. Oh
Speaker 1: thanks again, Buck. Tell you what. I've read a lot
Speaker 1: of memoirs. I've never read a memoir like this one before.
Speaker 1: This is Hunter Biden's book Beautiful Things, that comes out
Speaker 1: on Tuesday. It is extraordinary. You know, you've heard about
Speaker 1: Hunter Biden over the years. You've heard all the tabloid
Speaker 1: coverage of Hunter Biden. You think to know his story.
Speaker 1: We tell that rightway. Media is obsessed with him, Fox
Speaker 1: News always targeting him. And there are real questions to ask,
Speaker 1: concluding about that laptop that CBS is probing, that CBS
Speaker 1: asked Biden about in an interview that's airing today, in
Speaker 1: airin again tomorrow. But this book, this book about addiction,
Speaker 1: about how many times Hunter Biden could have died the
Speaker 1: president's son. It's breathtaking. I mean, brian'stlter is the most
Speaker 1: servile little turred in media. Right. It just let's where
Speaker 1: I don't want to be mean. I think it's just objective.
Speaker 1: This is the most amazing bablada. There are questions about that.
Speaker 1: There's no question about the laptop, jackass. It was this laptop.
Speaker 1: We all know it, all right, I mean, it was
Speaker 1: amazing watching he did some interviews as pressed for this book,
Speaker 1: which he's gotten, you know, seven figures for for Entrebad
Speaker 1: for his book, and they're going, you know, well, is
Speaker 1: that your laptop? And he goes, oh, I don't know, really, really,
Speaker 1: you don't know if someone has access to everything on
Speaker 1: your laptop, including intimate photos of you, you can't tell
Speaker 1: me if that's really your laptop or not. Yeah, maybe
Speaker 1: the Russians stolen, you know, I don't know. I mean,
Speaker 1: you know, maybe Aliens landed, who knows. But it's an
Speaker 1: amazing stories. Really, I'm not here to just k water
Speaker 1: for Democrats and the humid as the President's clearly very
Speaker 1: good upset that this is the guy that they told us,
Speaker 1: This is the guy that Democrats, we're all looking at
Speaker 1: s goom you the Brisbane didn't give him money because
Speaker 1: they were trying to buy influence the president. Oh he's
Speaker 1: a lawyer, he's a smart guy. He sure, sure. Yeah.
Speaker 1: But the thing that I think got the most attention
Speaker 1: here is that Hunter Biden claimed that he smoked crumbs
Speaker 1: of parmesan cheese, thinking that it was a crack. I
Speaker 1: believe he smoked parmesan cheese. This is this is Joe Biden.
Speaker 1: So now, look, addiction is a very serious problem, and
Speaker 1: it's it's devastating families who have it, and it's you know,
Speaker 1: it is something to take not only very seriously, but
Speaker 1: also to have some some real sympathy for. But Hunter
Speaker 1: Biden is not shying away from the public eye. That
Speaker 1: Hunter Biden's not some guy who's just trying to go
Speaker 1: to treatment and you know, be away from all this.
Speaker 1: This is a guy who's trying to cut international deals
Speaker 1: with the Chinese and with the Ukrainians and the Russians
Speaker 1: so you can be a multi multi millionaire, and he
Speaker 1: is a millionaire. This is a guy who is leveraging
Speaker 1: Daddy's connections, and Daddy's supposed to be representing you and
Speaker 1: me when he was vice president and now president. Isn't
Speaker 1: it remarkable this Joe Biden's I know he's president, and
Speaker 1: I know this is almost this feels like it's it
Speaker 1: can't be true. Joe Biden's a loser. I don't care
Speaker 1: that he's president. I don't care that he was vice president.
Speaker 1: I don't care he's a senator for decades and decades.
Speaker 1: This is a guy. He's just the best that lasted, right,
Speaker 1: He's just the guy who stayed around longer than everybody else.
Speaker 1: And in a sense, I mean, the inspirational part about
Speaker 1: Joe Biden is that you two can be a deeply
Speaker 1: unimpressive mediocrity. But if you have no principles, you stand
Speaker 1: for nothing, and you just say exactly what you have
Speaker 1: to say to play the system, maybe you two can
Speaker 1: be president. You know, maybe you can reach that point
Speaker 1: in your career you meeting anybody, right, anyone can be
Speaker 1: If Joe Biden can be president, anybody can be president.
Speaker 1: You don't have to be successful, you don't have to
Speaker 1: be smart, you don't have to be good or anything.
Speaker 1: You just have to be a slimy guy who plays
Speaker 1: the game. That's it. It's it's amazing in a sense, right,
Speaker 1: I mean it's it isn't only an American situation. And
Speaker 1: then his son, who you know this guy? I mean,
Speaker 1: he's got a kid with a stripper out of wedlock,
Speaker 1: and he's got the crack and he kicked out of
Speaker 1: the millet. I mean, such a mess. He had a
Speaker 1: he had a sexual relationship with his dead brother's widow.
Speaker 1: He talked about here. I mean, this is getting really weird,
Speaker 1: friends or we understanding. This is Joe Biden's kid. Can
Speaker 1: you imagine if one of the Trump children was in
Speaker 1: a similar circumstance to this, I mean they they were
Speaker 1: desperate to try to find a way to throw one
Speaker 1: of the Trump kids or all the Trump kids in
Speaker 1: prison if they could. I mean they the Democrat media
Speaker 1: was so insane if they could have found a way too.
Speaker 1: And then they did attack on a personal level, Trump's
Speaker 1: baron son, Baron right, he was like a barely a teenager.
Speaker 1: I think when the administration started, a twelve or thirteen
Speaker 1: years old. Maybe they did find ways to attack him,
Speaker 1: and they would lock up Ivanka or Jared or Donald
Speaker 1: Trump Junior, even Eric in a heartbeat if they could,
Speaker 1: and feel really justified in that they'd feel like they
Speaker 1: had done a great thing for the country if they
Speaker 1: could lock them up. And yeah, here we are looking
Speaker 1: at this and seeing what a disaster. I mean, Joe Biden,
Speaker 1: he's got a dog that bites people. I'm sorry, it's
Speaker 1: true the dog now a second time, it's got a
Speaker 1: dog that bites people. All right. The guy can barely
Speaker 1: walk up a flight of stairs. Sometimes it seems like
Speaker 1: he's almost eighty years old. His son Hunter is a
Speaker 1: complete disaster in a mess. Who is yet some still
Speaker 1: a millionaire? Has made millions of dollars. He's clearly paid
Speaker 1: by Bisma as a way to try to get you know,
Speaker 1: get daddied at least be on their side as a
Speaker 1: kind of insurance policy. That's obvious. Media pretend that it
Speaker 1: wasn't obvious. And it just feels like we're living in
Speaker 1: a in a bizarro world where this is the first family.
Speaker 1: Really the Bidens remarkable. The show ain't over yet, folks.
Speaker 1: It's time for roll call, all right. Facebook dot com,
Speaker 1: slash buck Sexton or teen bucket, iHeartMedia dot com. If
Speaker 1: you want to be a part of the roll call,
Speaker 1: please do send us your thoughts. Also, if you're not
Speaker 1: already following me on Twitter, on Facebook, on Instagram, please
Speaker 1: do great to hear from you there. And yeah, man
Speaker 1: producer Mark. We know we had a little Producer Mark
Speaker 1: happy birthday on Friday. Do you have any any birthday
Speaker 1: tails from the weekend to share with us? Just a
Speaker 1: lovely time spent with my wife and a few friends.
Speaker 1: We were able to order it in habachi, which one
Speaker 1: of my favorite foods, and my wife got some cupcakes.
Speaker 1: It was very fun. Habacchi Is that the Japanese steak?
Speaker 1: That's when they cook it in front of you? Right?
Speaker 1: But is that is that? Right? Is a Japanese thing
Speaker 1: or a a Korean thing? Is it Koreans Japanese? Yeah? You've
Speaker 1: never gone to abacchi restaurant before? H once a long
Speaker 1: time ago. It's been a long time. Oh, it's fantastic.
Speaker 1: They cook the food in front of you. It's either
Speaker 1: steak or chicken or shrimp, whatever you want. It's delicious,
Speaker 1: very nice. So you went out to a place, No,
Speaker 1: we ordered it in but normally ordered it so they
Speaker 1: didn't cook it in front of it. All is the
Speaker 1: same food as when they cooked in front you. Do
Speaker 1: they send you like a video, you know, they city
Speaker 1: a little YouTube clip of that. They should send a
Speaker 1: video of them making it. Yeah, yeah, but all right,
Speaker 1: well I'm glad it was glad it was delicioso. Anything else, No,
Speaker 1: that's it just very low key, not quite the same
Speaker 1: birthdays as when we were in college. Book and how
Speaker 1: old this producer mark? For everybody listening, just so they
Speaker 1: know he's twenty eight. He is not, in fact fifty five, guys,
Speaker 1: he's twenty eight, just so you know, people really think
Speaker 1: I was that old. Some of them are thought you
Speaker 1: were a little bit older. Man. I know I have
Speaker 1: a deep voice, but still yeah, some of them think,
Speaker 1: you know you're you're grouchy. Ways puts you a couple
Speaker 1: of checks. I do act like I'm sixty five. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but I mean I get I've always I've always been
Speaker 1: an old soul, so I get it. And I was
Speaker 1: always like, knock off all that noise. You know, I'm what,
Speaker 1: I'm fighting a one man war against unnecessary noise. Always.
Speaker 1: I will tell you I went. I went to get coffee.
Speaker 1: The first time I really emerged from my apartment after
Speaker 1: having had COVID for ten days. I emerged. I went
Speaker 1: to a coffee shop in the corner, and I go
Speaker 1: in there, and and there's somebody who is there's a
Speaker 1: few people in there, and there's somebody who is having
Speaker 1: a conversation on speaker phone, like a loud conversation, like
Speaker 1: they put their phone down, the tap up in front
Speaker 1: of them in a public place on speaker phone, so
Speaker 1: we can all hear what the other person saying. This is,
Speaker 1: This is savage. This is not the way we do things.
Speaker 1: Producer Mark. What are people forgetting all their manners because
Speaker 1: of the pandemic. Yes, actually it's not because the pandemic.
Speaker 1: People did that well before the pandemic, and it's gross.
Speaker 1: The other thing that I see people do, and I
Speaker 1: really do understand this is they will they will take
Speaker 1: a they will have a kid with the what do
Speaker 1: you call it the tablet, you know, iPad, and they'll
Speaker 1: be playing video games on their iPad without headphones on.
Speaker 1: Like to begin with, restaurants aren't really for having iPads
Speaker 1: in your hands. But if it keeps the kid quiet,
Speaker 1: I can kind of tolerated, you know a little bit,
Speaker 1: if it the kid needs this to be quiet. Although
Speaker 1: what does that say about some of the parenting situation.
Speaker 1: I'm just putting it out there. But beyond that, you
Speaker 1: gotta have headphones. I mean, you gotta have headphones. I
Speaker 1: don't understand why people think they can make all this
Speaker 1: noise and all this is acceptable. So I once had
Speaker 1: that behind me on a plane and I immediately said
Speaker 1: something before we took off because it was a six
Speaker 1: hour flight. Yeah, it's horrifically rude. It's horrifically I don't
Speaker 1: want to hear someone else's video game or or movie
Speaker 1: or cartoon or what. I don't want to hear acted
Speaker 1: shocked when I asked him to put on headphones. Yeah,
Speaker 1: people are total savages, have no have no sense of
Speaker 1: manners whatsoever. So I'm with you on that one man.
Speaker 1: So for me, over the weekend, the only excited part
Speaker 1: of the weekends. I finally got to see um My,
Speaker 1: Except finally got to see Tallulah, and I got to
Speaker 1: see my little nephew Ryan, who's very, very cute. He's
Speaker 1: now a little he's like a little when they're a
Speaker 1: little infant, you know, they're so small and delicate. Now
Speaker 1: he's turned into like a chunk. You know, he weighs
Speaker 1: like twenty pounds. Because I guess he's six months old
Speaker 1: or so. And you know, he's like a thick little
Speaker 1: dude and he's a lot of fun. He smiles and
Speaker 1: laughs and stuff. When you you know when because when
Speaker 1: they're really young, you know, you kind of just you
Speaker 1: feed them and keep them clean, and they don't really
Speaker 1: you know, the baby doesn't really interact. I have not
Speaker 1: spent much time with babies before. So this is my
Speaker 1: first experience with someone with a baby, really getting to
Speaker 1: know my nephew. So there's that, which is fun. I'm
Speaker 1: with you there. I've never held a baby or been
Speaker 1: near a baby really, so I get it right. So
Speaker 1: all this baby stuff to me is kind of new.
Speaker 1: So I've got this little, tiny, little tiny baby. He's very, very,
Speaker 1: very cute, though he likes to grab on pretty hard.
Speaker 1: He's got these little pudgy fingers. And he grabs my
Speaker 1: beard now and likes to pull on the beard. And
Speaker 1: you know, I'm not gonna tell him. You know, you
Speaker 1: can't pull all the beard. He was a little guy,
Speaker 1: So he pulls on the beard sometimes. That is what
Speaker 1: it is. But that was the highlight of that, and uh,
Speaker 1: you know, pretty much, I wish I could say this.
Speaker 1: I am going to go to the gym that I
Speaker 1: haven't felled up to go into the gym since I've
Speaker 1: had COVID. So I'm gonna go back in today. And
Speaker 1: that's always a humbling that's always a humbling experience. You
Speaker 1: go in the gym and you go, oh, okay. So
Speaker 1: this is gonna be a not an easy situation. But anyway,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get back into it. Folks, gonna get back
Speaker 1: into it. Let's get to your thoughts in roll Call.
Speaker 1: We'll kick it all off with Darryl. He writes. Since
Speaker 1: Joe Scarborough is so concerned about the behavior and choices
Speaker 1: of others impacting him and his family, I wonder if
Speaker 1: he holds himself to the same standard. For example, when
Speaker 1: he drives his son too that baseball game. I surely
Speaker 1: hope he is a body by all legal speed limits
Speaker 1: and properly signaling all turns. I hope he isn't driving
Speaker 1: distracted by yapping on a cell phone. Further, I hope
Speaker 1: he got a full eight hours of sleep the night
Speaker 1: before to avoid any danger of driving drowsy and not
Speaker 1: being fully alert. I also hope he strictly maintains his
Speaker 1: vehicle in top shape, so there's no risk of mechanical
Speaker 1: failure on the road. Failure to do all these things
Speaker 1: and more would surely endanger those around him, and by
Speaker 1: his own logic, why should any of us be subjected
Speaker 1: to risking our safety by being in the presence of
Speaker 1: a driver like him shield type Yeah, Darryl. I mean,
Speaker 1: first of all, the Scarborough point that I was really
Speaker 1: digging in on at the time was that he is
Speaker 1: so vicious toward people that have questions about whether they
Speaker 1: should get the vaccine, all under the assumption that it's
Speaker 1: Trump supporters, those idiot Trump supporters, when the greatest, the
Speaker 1: greatest pockets in the country of real vaccine opposition tend
Speaker 1: to be concentrated in the minority community, and particularly a
Speaker 1: lot of black and Latino folks, but particularly a lot
Speaker 1: of Black Americans in the pollings suggest that they have
Speaker 1: a problem with with the vaccination or you know, they
Speaker 1: don't basically that they are concerned about they don't want
Speaker 1: to get vaccinated. And yet Scarborough trashes Republicans who being
Speaker 1: its and you know, oh, they're so stupid they won't
Speaker 1: because he's a because he's a jerk. I mean, I
Speaker 1: don't know what what it even motivates that guy at
Speaker 1: this point, you know, it blew up his family and
Speaker 1: someone else's family that they get married as co host.
Speaker 1: I mean, the whole you know, the whole thing is
Speaker 1: really what what what keeps that guy just being just attention,
Speaker 1: money and attention. It's also empty at the end of
Speaker 1: the day, isn't it. Dave hey Buck, Please ask producer
Speaker 1: Mark why I should continue to pay twenty five dollars
Speaker 1: a month to watch my Cubs when they're pulling the
Speaker 1: All Star Game from Atlanta because of a completely reasonable
Speaker 1: vote for fair voting laws. This is getting out of hand.
Speaker 1: We now have Lebron chiming in. I try to like
Speaker 1: and respect him, but he's so wrong about everything that's
Speaker 1: going on right now. Yeah, Lebron James's politics are awful
Speaker 1: and not rooted in a fair understanding of the world
Speaker 1: as it is or America as it is. So there's that,
Speaker 1: and it is to me a little whiny and babyish
Speaker 1: for a lot of these professional athletes, not just Lebron James,
Speaker 1: but to act like they're standing up against all the suppression.
Speaker 1: Now they're celebrated, celebrity multimillionaires in their lives are pretty
Speaker 1: amazing and they're really really lucky. But what's this with
Speaker 1: twenty five dollars a month to watch my cubs? Mark?
Speaker 1: What's he talking about? Oh? Well, I assume he's an
Speaker 1: out of market fan and has to pay for the
Speaker 1: subscription service to watch the out of market games. Oh.
Speaker 1: I didn't know that was a thing. Yeah, So, like
Speaker 1: if I lived in Florida, MLB has a thing where
Speaker 1: you can subscribe for a monthly fee or a yearly
Speaker 1: fee and you get all the games twenty five dollars
Speaker 1: a month. That's expensive. It's probably a little cheaper than
Speaker 1: the one on cable that's the streaming service. So the
Speaker 1: cable package probably it's probably a lot more expensive. I
Speaker 1: mean twenty five dollars. You can you can subscribe to
Speaker 1: HBO all a card I think for like thirteen or
Speaker 1: fourteen dollars a month. Well yeah, but baseball is based
Speaker 1: baseball baseball. It's every day. So yeah, there we go.
Speaker 1: Well we'll see, uh, let's see what we get here.
Speaker 1: Kyle rides Buck here's my response of progressives who are
Speaker 1: pushing the COVID passport. Can't get a COVID passport without
Speaker 1: get without a COVID vaccine. Can't get a COVID vaccine
Speaker 1: without an ID requiring IDs is racist, Therefore COVID passports
Speaker 1: or racist. Kyle, I know you are applying the logic
Speaker 1: of the left, uh here and and you're correct in
Speaker 1: your application of it. But remember they don't care that
Speaker 1: they have double standards because they don't aspire to universally
Speaker 1: applicable principle. They just want to have the power to
Speaker 1: do what they want to do, so they want to
Speaker 1: treat people differently based on what they decide. Right, they don't.
Speaker 1: They're not even trying at this point to say, yeah,
Speaker 1: you know it's voter ID in general is acceptable or
Speaker 1: unacceptable for all purposes. They're saying, we want it when
Speaker 1: we want it, we don't want it when we don't
Speaker 1: want it. End of story, end of discussion. That's how
Speaker 1: they view it. Getting a new here with Dave Buck.
Speaker 1: I've been saying for the entire duration of the Rona
Speaker 1: that it has been a control thing. As you constantly say,
Speaker 1: Fauci is an idiotic troll that's drunk on power. It
Speaker 1: feels that the American people won't stand for another fifteen
Speaker 1: sixteen months love the show, Agree with pretty much all
Speaker 1: your take shields eye. Well, David, if you agree with
Speaker 1: all my takes, you're obviously a very wise, well informed fellow,
Speaker 1: So thank you for that. And yeah, I think people
Speaker 1: don't really fully yet comprehend how much Faucism is going
Speaker 1: to linger. Like here's what I can tell you. I
Speaker 1: have a very high confidence in this state of this
Speaker 1: assessment that Fauciism is not going to get turned off
Speaker 1: like a light switch. There's not going to be some
Speaker 1: day at which they go, Okay, let's go back to normal,
Speaker 1: you know, let's go back to a world where we
Speaker 1: don't have to wear masks and we can do what
Speaker 1: we want to do. We can go where we want
Speaker 1: to go. You know, I was thinking the other day
Speaker 1: about about how I would love to go to a
Speaker 1: beach in the Caribbean for a weekend. You know, I'd
Speaker 1: love to take the snow Princess. I'm thinking about doing
Speaker 1: this suit and I'm looking to do it. I mean,
Speaker 1: I was actually getting ready to do it. Just get
Speaker 1: away for a week and I'll go to Theahamas for
Speaker 1: a weekend or go to you know, Jamaica for a
Speaker 1: weekend or something. Because flights, right, you can get flights
Speaker 1: for one hundred and fIF the bucks or something, so
Speaker 1: the flights not that much. You go place for three
Speaker 1: or four days, find a nice place, maybe even do
Speaker 1: an airbnb. Basically go away for a Caribbean weekend for
Speaker 1: under a thousand bucks. You could do that right now,
Speaker 1: you know, which is for a vacation. It's pretty nice.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's pretty expensive compared to what it would
Speaker 1: usually be. And everywhere I want to go, there's all
Speaker 1: this oh, you have to test negative three days before
Speaker 1: submitted to the health system, you know. And and then
Speaker 1: this is for Barbados, for Jamaica, and for Virgin Islands
Speaker 1: at Versa in Lucia, for all these different places, which
Speaker 1: if you're an East coast or this is from the
Speaker 1: West coast, you go to Hawaii much more easily, or
Speaker 1: maybe you go down to Mexico much more easily if
Speaker 1: you're the center of the country obviously Mexico, maybe on
Speaker 1: the East coast, you know, the Caribbean tends to be.
Speaker 1: It's about the same flight you'd have to go to
Speaker 1: Florida from New York. And all these places I want
Speaker 1: to go to, they have all these rules. And here's
Speaker 1: the thing, Yeah, I think I'll test negative on my
Speaker 1: PCR before I go, But they also have tests that
Speaker 1: they'll do when you arrive, and if your PCR is positive,
Speaker 1: they're gonna mandate, They're gonna make you mandatorily quarantine for
Speaker 1: fourteen days. I can't. I can't go away for two
Speaker 1: or three days what I think is like a long
Speaker 1: weekend basically, or even just a weekend somewhere, and be
Speaker 1: told that you have to stay in your hotel room
Speaker 1: for fourteen days. I can't do it. I can't risk that.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think it's that high, but these
Speaker 1: PCR tests and I've had COVID so there's clearly virus
Speaker 1: shards in my system still, so I can't take that risk.
Speaker 1: Though this is crazy, this is crazy. I should be
Speaker 1: able to show up if this is really based on
Speaker 1: the science, this is really based on what's true, I
Speaker 1: should I should be able to show up with proof
Speaker 1: of a positive COVID test from thirty or sixty days
Speaker 1: before I'd say, see, I'm immune, leave me alone. But
Speaker 1: now even vaccination is not enough because vaccinations aren't perfect.
Speaker 1: We've fallen into this totalitarian mindset where because something isn't perfect,
Speaker 1: that means it it's not one hundred percent. That means
Speaker 1: you have to live your life like it's a reasonable fear.
Speaker 1: That's crazy, that's crippling. I can't guarantee any of you
Speaker 1: listening to this that you will not get hit by
Speaker 1: a car if you cross the street. I can't guarantee
Speaker 1: you that today or tomorrow or any day. Can't guarantee it.
Speaker 1: Does that mean that you're never going to cross the
Speaker 1: street again? I mean, I don't know. You know, it's
Speaker 1: about protecting you if it saves one life, right, that's
Speaker 1: the mentality. That's what has happened during COVID. We've gone
Speaker 1: to this zero risk mindset, which is totalitarianism. It's it's
Speaker 1: completely unacceptable and it's destroying us. All right, continuing, I'm
Speaker 1: a roll call here, we get Danny. Sorry you got COVID.
Speaker 1: I was in the bubble for a while, but one
Speaker 1: ahead and took the job. As my online friends in
Speaker 1: the United Kingdom would say, so far, so good after
Speaker 1: my first viser shot after two rough days, stay well,
Speaker 1: my friend, and get the hell out of New York.
Speaker 1: If you want good Carolina pulled barbecue pork, look for
Speaker 1: the Lexington style next time. You're hear but my vote
Speaker 1: for the best barbecue is for Kansas City. As a
Speaker 1: fifty four year old who grew up on Long Island
Speaker 1: and moved around, I never knew Brooklyn had good barbecue.
Speaker 1: I'll have to look into that next time I visit
Speaker 1: the family. Oh and Shields High, Well, thank you, Danny.
Speaker 1: I've had Kansas City barbecue and it is quite delicious.
Speaker 1: I will say that Kansas City does have some really
Speaker 1: good barbecue. But yes, as much as they are a
Speaker 1: bunch of left wing hipsters with awful politics, Brooklyn does
Speaker 1: have good barbecue. It is a true thing. There's actually
Speaker 1: New York City has some really good barbecue places now,
Speaker 1: not with the same authenticity and regional flare and variation
Speaker 1: you'll get in other places. But if you're just talking
Speaker 1: about can you get really good pulled pork, really good
Speaker 1: brisket with a delicious sauce barbecue style, the answers, yes,
Speaker 1: you can get that in New York, So it does
Speaker 1: exist here. I know people don't necessarily like to hear that,
Speaker 1: but it's true, Linda hey Buck, like you, my husband
Speaker 1: and I both had COVID. We have no idea where
Speaker 1: we got it. We obeyed all the mandates, travel as
Speaker 1: much as we wanted. Finally, just last month, we both
Speaker 1: got it. My husband tested positive, and since I also
Speaker 1: had symptoms, I didn't test because I didn't want the
Speaker 1: state's Panic numbers to go up. I did take an
Speaker 1: antibody test shortly after and tested positive. For those, we're
Speaker 1: with you. No one who has had COVID or vaccinated
Speaker 1: should have limits on their freedom. Actually no one should,
Speaker 1: but one step at a time getting out of this mess.
Speaker 1: Our son is a D one hockey player. Their team
Speaker 1: quarantine three separate times this season. The Liberal school never
Speaker 1: bothered with anybody tests or the whole team individually quarantine
Speaker 1: three times, all while the players got tested every day
Speaker 1: for seven months. I am beyond frustrated over all of this,
Speaker 1: as you are. My other young son is a Navy officer.
Speaker 1: A mother son is a young Navy officer and pilot training.
Speaker 1: They have all kinds of crazy COVID rules, none of
Speaker 1: which makes sense. The morale of the troops is in
Speaker 1: the tank. Linda, I'm glad you and your husband are well.
Speaker 1: God bless you and your family. Thanks for writing in,
Speaker 1: and yes, the COVID madness needs to end. But We're
Speaker 1: a long way from getting out of this, friends, even
Speaker 1: as the numbers keep going in our favor more tomorrow,
Speaker 1: Please pass the buck. Tell somebody about this show who
Speaker 1: hasn't heard of it, doesn't listen, should join US. Shields
Speaker 1: high
