Speaker 1: Much to get to today. We had a very disconcerting
Speaker 1: speech from President Biden after a horrific terror attack that
Speaker 1: killed a one hundred and seventy people, thirteen US military members.
Speaker 1: Biden trying to calm the country. I don't think he
Speaker 1: did a good job. Did this White House give a
Speaker 1: kill list to the Taliban? We'll dive into that. Plus
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court strikes down the unconstitutional eviction moratorium finally,
Speaker 1: and Lieutenant Bird is the name of the fellow who
Speaker 1: shot Ashley Babbitt, the member of Capitol Hill Police. He
Speaker 1: gave an interview and we will talk about what he
Speaker 1: said there so as you can tell, and then we'll
Speaker 1: get some roll call. We have a very busy show
Speaker 1: today for sure. But you know Wall Street has been

Speaker 1: to get you out? It matters? Look? I know of
Speaker 1: no conflict as a student of history. No conflict where
Speaker 1: when a war was ending, one side was able to
Speaker 1: guarantee that everyone they wanted to be extracted from that
Speaker 1: country would get out and think about it, folks, make
Speaker 1: it's important. I know American people get this and they're
Speaker 1: gut They're going to leave people behind. The battlefield that's
Speaker 1: going to happen is at this point inevitable. Hopefully no Americans,
Speaker 1: but not even sure that's the case. Certainly we'll leave SIV,
Speaker 1: which is the equivalent of a green card. It's a
Speaker 1: green card category. These are people that we have given
Speaker 1: green cards to in return for service the United States.
Speaker 1: This is through the legal immigration system, same way. I
Speaker 1: know many of you listen to or from families that
Speaker 1: are legal immigrants, or maybe you're a legal immigrant yourself.
Speaker 1: SIVs are legal immigrants to the United States. We're going
Speaker 1: to leave a lot of them behind, for sure, including
Speaker 1: some who were interpreters. There are others who were working
Speaker 1: for contractors and doing other more day to day jobs,
Speaker 1: but there were military embedded interpreters. There are going to
Speaker 1: be some who are left behind. The Biden administration is
Speaker 1: just telling you this is going to happen, and we've
Speaker 1: known this for days now. We had that horrific mass
Speaker 1: casualty attack yesterday double suicide bombing. I talked about how
Speaker 1: this is the biggest soft target you could possibly find,
Speaker 1: congregation of thousands of people up against gates with only
Speaker 1: Taliban checkpoints around them to quote protect them, and the
Speaker 1: US military then processing them as they try to get
Speaker 1: into an actual interior security perimeter. And it went very tragedy,
Speaker 1: horrifically wrong yesterday. But we can't say that it's surprising.
Speaker 1: Of course, this was what isis k isis chorus on
Speaker 1: or whatever faction. This is how much can we really
Speaker 1: put in the intelligence community and the military intelligence apparatus.
Speaker 1: I know that's one of the same, But how much
Speaker 1: can we really put in their analysis of who did this?
Speaker 1: I mean, when Joe Biden was saying yesterday that they're
Speaker 1: going to go after they're gonna find justice against those
Speaker 1: who did this, does anyone take that seriously? I mean,
Speaker 1: how is that going? First of all, even if we
Speaker 1: flew some drones in the sky and blew up the
Speaker 1: people that were behind the plotting of these attacks, that
Speaker 1: those who were involved in them, what would that change
Speaker 1: exactly for the security situation the ground. Sure, it would
Speaker 1: be justice in the sense that we would have retribution
Speaker 1: against those involved in the suicide attack, which is good,
Speaker 1: But would it anybody who is currently on the ground
Speaker 1: and cobbles safer. It wouldn't change anything. No, And we
Speaker 1: sit here today as I'm speaking to you, and all
Speaker 1: I can think is, why wouldn't isis k if that
Speaker 1: is in fact who's responsible do this again, why wouldn't they?
Speaker 1: They are Jihatat psychopaths. There's still a lot of people
Speaker 1: who are going to be pressed up against those gates.
Speaker 1: There's going to be mobs forming of people that are
Speaker 1: trying to get out, and what can we really do
Speaker 1: about it? Maybe the Taliband didn't order the hit, but
Speaker 1: maybe they just had a few of their members turn
Speaker 1: a blind eye. We don't know what's going on with
Speaker 1: those checks. These are Taliban checkpoints. These are terrorists who
Speaker 1: engage in savage behavior, who will abuse sexually children and
Speaker 1: call them wives. We know that's been happening with Taliban
Speaker 1: fighters who will mutilate and execute women for minor offenses
Speaker 1: against their so called Shariah in interpretation, right, that's who's
Speaker 1: matting the checkpoints. And we have Afghans crowding in to
Speaker 1: try to get out, and what are we looking for?
Speaker 1: Now some sense from the Biden administration that they have
Speaker 1: a handle on this, that they'll be able to stop this,
Speaker 1: and Biden is telling us that there will be retribution
Speaker 1: here you go fourteen. To those who carried out this attack,
Speaker 1: as well as anyone who wishes America harm, know this,
Speaker 1: we will not forgive. We will not forget. We will
Speaker 1: hunt you down and make you pay. I'll defend our
Speaker 1: interests in our people with every measure at my command.
Speaker 1: What's that going to mean? What does he have at
Speaker 1: as command? Right now? We're just trying to hold on
Speaker 1: to our last little piece of real estate and evacuate
Speaker 1: all of our people. Does anyone really think that we
Speaker 1: have the kind of intelligence networks on the ground right now?
Speaker 1: I can tell you we don't. Where we'd be able
Speaker 1: to find out who is involved in the plotting and
Speaker 1: planning of that mass casualty suicide bombing attack yesterday, No way,
Speaker 1: no way. We can't tell you if it was Hakani
Speaker 1: network allied with isis K or a faction of the
Speaker 1: Taliban aligned with ISIS, or the Kadi's working with the Taliban,
Speaker 1: or who knows. We have no real sense of what's
Speaker 1: going on in this country. I think that's pretty clear.
Speaker 1: Considering that the Afghan army folded in eleven days, and
Speaker 1: we thought it would at least last six months. You
Speaker 1: could say, oh, but we all thought yeah. But I'm
Speaker 1: not sitting there with a eight hundred billion dollars Pentagon
Speaker 1: budget at my disposal, and spy satellites and intelligence agencies
Speaker 1: and all the things that we have to try to
Speaker 1: get a sense of what's really going on. I mean,
Speaker 1: in many ways, this is the most stunning intelligence failure
Speaker 1: certainly since nine to eleven. Nothing like this, nothing of
Speaker 1: this scale. Here we are, I have some of you
Speaker 1: will pick up. There's some other things I'm sure we
Speaker 1: could throw in the mix too. Someone brought up Libya
Speaker 1: as a foreign policy blunder, but that didn't put thousands
Speaker 1: and thousands of Americans in harm's way. It did end
Speaker 1: up with US losing four Americans in Benghazi, so we've
Speaker 1: already lost thirteen in this debacle in Afghanistan. But then
Speaker 1: there's the I think the moment of shock that reverberated
Speaker 1: through much of the country yesterday when Biden went up.
Speaker 1: He was supposed to make everybody feel better, and here
Speaker 1: is how he approaches things. Play fifteen ladies and gentlemen
Speaker 1: gave me a list here. The first person I was
Speaker 1: instructed to call on was Kelly o'donald NBC. Why is
Speaker 1: why I have a list of people to call them?
Speaker 1: It's all so scripted, right, It all just feels so
Speaker 1: stage managed and phony. But how could it not. Joe
Speaker 1: Biden was up there a kind of ashostion, Yo, sure,
Speaker 1: fading almost like the way America's standing in the world
Speaker 1: is fading. It was not confidence inspiring yesterday. The commander
Speaker 1: in chief was not making everybody feel like he's on it,
Speaker 1: He's got this. I think, how much worse could this
Speaker 1: really go for the Biden administration at this point? And
Speaker 1: then you think, oh my gosh, it absolutely could be worse,
Speaker 1: could be much worse. We still have days to go here.
Speaker 1: We still have at least hundreds of Americans who have
Speaker 1: to get out of the country at least as of
Speaker 1: last count, and thousands and thousands of SIV holders who
Speaker 1: are supposed to get out of the country. But you
Speaker 1: know what the biggest single concern the Biden administration has
Speaker 1: right now is perception of their capability. How does this
Speaker 1: affect them politically? That matters more than anything else, that
Speaker 1: matters more than the situation on the ground in Afghanistan
Speaker 1: for the Biden team, I can tell you that much.
Speaker 1: Here he is going back and forth with Peter doocey seventeen.
Speaker 1: I bear responsibility for fundamentally all that's happened of late.
Speaker 1: But here's the deal. You know as well as I do,
Speaker 1: that a former president made a deal with the Tally
Speaker 1: Bond if he would get all American forces out of
Speaker 1: Afghanistan by May one. In return, he was given a
Speaker 1: commitment if the Tally Bond would continue to attack others,
Speaker 1: but would not attack any American forces. Remember that, I'm
Speaker 1: being serious now, I'm asking you a question because before no, no, no,
Speaker 1: wait a minute, I'm asking you a question. It is
Speaker 1: that accurate the best of your note. I think they
Speaker 1: have an issue, that people are like to get hurt.
Speaker 1: Some as we've seen, we've gotten killed, and that it
Speaker 1: is messy fighting with Peter Doocy over how you know,
Speaker 1: Really it's Trump's fault. You got to remember that in
Speaker 1: this whole process, it's Trump's fault. M I thought Joe
Speaker 1: Biden was the President of the United States. I thought
Speaker 1: we had all fight. In fact, if you didn't say
Speaker 1: Joe Biden was the president. Oh, and he won and
Speaker 1: it was the cleanest election ever. No problems, no rule changes,
Speaker 1: no violations to state constitutions, no fraud, no nothing right
Speaker 1: unless you say that you're a bad per, you're an insurrectionist.
Speaker 1: So they were very insistent that Joe Biden was really
Speaker 1: the president. Right, we know that. So then isn't Joe
Speaker 1: Biden responsible? What am I missing here? What? What part
Speaker 1: of this? Where did I not get the memo? M
Speaker 1: It's still President Trump's fault. As this disaster continues to
Speaker 1: unfold in Afghanistan, stunning the Tunnel to Towers Foundation helps
Speaker 1: us keep our commitment to never forget. This year, the
Speaker 1: foundation is honoring gold star and fallen first responder families
Speaker 1: with young children and catastrophically injured veterans and first responders
Speaker 1: with two hundred mortgage free homes. Chairman and CEO Frank
Speaker 1: Siller's paying tribute to the fallen by walking from the
Speaker 1: Pentagon to Shanksville and on to Ground zero, more than
Speaker 1: five hundred miles through six states and forty two days.
Speaker 1: The month of August through nine to eleven. Towers of
Speaker 1: Light are to shine at the Pentagon and Shanks for
Speaker 1: memorials in remembrance and the names of those we lost
Speaker 1: to nine eleven related illnesses are being read allowed at
Speaker 1: a ceremony on September twelfth, on Veterans Day, the names
Speaker 1: of those we lost the War on Terror will also
Speaker 1: be sett aloud. Do good and help America to never forget.
Speaker 1: Donate eleven dollars a month to Tunnel to Towers at
Speaker 1: t twot dot org. That's t the number two t
Speaker 1: org t twot dot org. So the officer, Lieutenant Bird,
Speaker 1: who shot Ashley Babbitt in the neck, spoke out about this.
Speaker 1: He had an interview with Lester Holt and here's what
Speaker 1: he says about why no remember just this was on
Speaker 1: January sixth thirty five year old female about one hundred
Speaker 1: and what forty pounds, Ashley Babbitt is trying to come
Speaker 1: through a locked door and she's breaking through the glass
Speaker 1: and this Lieutenant Bird of Capitol Hill Police pulled his gun.
Speaker 1: He has gun pointed at her for quite some time
Speaker 1: and just shot her in the neck and killed her.
Speaker 1: I didn't I don't know if if he actually said, well,
Speaker 1: you know what, let's let's let him explain how he
Speaker 1: views that she was a threat Played twenty one. I
Speaker 1: had been yelling and screaming as loud as I was,
Speaker 1: please stop, get back, get back, stop. We had a
Speaker 1: weapon strolling. We see your arm out there for a
Speaker 1: considerable amount of time. Were you wavering? I was taking
Speaker 1: a tactical stance. You're ultimately hoping that your commands will
Speaker 1: be complied with, and unfortunately they were not. What did
Speaker 1: you think this individual was doing? Then? She was posing
Speaker 1: a threat to United States House of Representatives. Posing a
Speaker 1: threat to the United States House of Representatives. If this woman,
Speaker 1: I'm just wondering, Let's let's listen to what he says
Speaker 1: here for a moment, he's saying she poses a threat.
Speaker 1: Let's let's unpack this together. There were other people in
Speaker 1: that in that hallway too. There were other people that
Speaker 1: were banging on that door. What if he took his
Speaker 1: tactical stance, shot Ashley Babbitt in the neck and then
Speaker 1: took two steps forward and just started firing into the crowd,
Speaker 1: just started shooting at people. Would that be just now?
Speaker 1: Ask yourself, why wouldn't that be justified? Right? If Ashley
Speaker 1: Babbitt at that door, who had not actually attacked a
Speaker 1: human being, but she had broken property. If she can
Speaker 1: be shot and killed, why can't all the people around
Speaker 1: her who were also banging on the door. Would it
Speaker 1: be okay for Lieutenant Bird to pull his service weapon?
Speaker 1: Which it is true? Also the rumors about how he
Speaker 1: left it in a bathroom and was disciplined for that,
Speaker 1: that was true. He said that in the interview. But
Speaker 1: why couldn't he then just open fire on everybody in
Speaker 1: that hallway? It seems to me that the use of
Speaker 1: force justification here is completely in compliance with that. You know,
Speaker 1: people are, people are being loud, there's a riot going on,
Speaker 1: They're banging on a door. There's no actual members of
Speaker 1: Congress nearby. No one has actually been physically attacked, yet
Speaker 1: there's still a door separating Why didn't the officer run
Speaker 1: and give at least a shove to Ashley Babbitt? Remember,
Speaker 1: through a locked door. Folks just wondering why not, Oh,
Speaker 1: shot through the neck, killed right there? M this is
Speaker 1: this is lawful. This does tremendous damage, tremendous damage to
Speaker 1: our sense of equal justice. Because I can tell you this,
Speaker 1: there are plenty of times where officers have been assaulted
Speaker 1: physically by people from BLM protests. And if this were
Speaker 1: a BLM protester, and specifically, if this were a black
Speaker 1: BLM protester who was rushing a police officer who pulled
Speaker 1: his weapon and shot that BLM protester in the neck,
Speaker 1: we all understand that it would be a national tragedy.
Speaker 1: There would be more murals of that individual all over
Speaker 1: the country, at least in major cities, and they would
Speaker 1: be telling us that this was horrific police brutality, the
Speaker 1: worst kinds of violence. No, Instead, Michael Bird, Lieutenant Michael
Speaker 1: Bird is telling everybody that he saved countless lives. Play
Speaker 1: twenty two according to law, it does not. I know,
Speaker 1: based on my training and my policy, what I did
Speaker 1: was appropriate. Have you continued to question your actions that day?
Speaker 1: I knew that day. I followed my training, and I
Speaker 1: spent countless years preparing for such a moment. You ultimately
Speaker 1: hope that moment never occurs, but you prepare as best
Speaker 1: you can. I know that day I saved countless lives.
Speaker 1: Saved countless lives? Really? Really? Huh? Because who was killed
Speaker 1: that day? Only Ashley Babbitt? I have to say, was
Speaker 1: there anyone else who was killed that day. Oh, they
Speaker 1: told us that there was an officer who's beaten to
Speaker 1: death with a fire extinguisher. That was what the reporting
Speaker 1: was from many many news outlets. Turn out that was
Speaker 1: not true. That was just that was a lie. That
Speaker 1: was a lie. Okay, So how exactly did he save
Speaker 1: all these lives? Well, what did he do that saved life?
Speaker 1: He took a life for sure. Ashley Babbitt was gonna
Speaker 1: what rush him and beat him to death? Is that? What?
Speaker 1: Is that what he's suggesting? Somehow these rioters, they didn't
Speaker 1: do that anywhere else, but in this case, that's what
Speaker 1: was going to happen. Here's Ashley Babbott's husband on that
Speaker 1: Lieutenant Bird interview played twenty four pissed off. I mean,
Speaker 1: I've only heard a couple of clips so far, Tucker.
Speaker 1: At this point, it's not air until seven o'clock out here.
Speaker 1: I read the full transcrip up it. I had not
Speaker 1: heard that one clip that you just played. My agitation
Speaker 1: levels actually going through the roof right now where he
Speaker 1: admitted he didn't really care if she was armed or not.
Speaker 1: We're unarmed or not. He didn't he didn't care. So yeah,
Speaker 1: we're we're going down a bad rabbit hole right now.
Speaker 1: And I don't even want to hear him talk about
Speaker 1: how he's getting death threats and he's scared. I've been
Speaker 1: getting death threats since January seventh, two, three, five, ten
Speaker 1: a day, you know. And all I did on January
Speaker 1: sixth was to become a widower. So you're gonna have
Speaker 1: to suck it up, butt and take it. It's heartbreaking
Speaker 1: to hear this man who lost his wife talking about
Speaker 1: the situation. But NBC gave a platform to elevate the
Speaker 1: man who shot Ashley Babbitt's all right, shot this man's wife,
Speaker 1: Ashley Babbitt. He elevated him like he's a hero. That's
Speaker 1: what they've done. He's a hero. This is the way
Speaker 1: they set up this interview. Good job shooting that woman
Speaker 1: in the neck. Lesser Holt suggests had to do it
Speaker 1: to save lives. Really, I don't think so. Two different
Speaker 1: centers of justice in this country, one for whom the
Speaker 1: elites believe need to be protected and elevated, and one
Speaker 1: for those of us who questioned why the elites have
Speaker 1: so much power and control. And then we have the
Speaker 1: eviction moratorium which got shut down. Finally, just say six
Speaker 1: three decisions Supreme Court. The fact that there are three
Speaker 1: judges on the Supreme Court who did not go along
Speaker 1: with this just goes to show you what a bunch
Speaker 1: of Marxist loons they are right, that that Bryer, Sodamayor
Speaker 1: and Kagan would in this case say, yeah, you know what,
Speaker 1: the government can just by by fiat, by executive order,
Speaker 1: decide that your property is no longer yours. I mean,
Speaker 1: this is madness. This is sheer authoritarian overreach in its
Speaker 1: purest form. And three Supreme Court justices look, yeah, but
Speaker 1: we like it. There's a pandemic. Yeah, now we're realizing
Speaker 1: there's going to be a pandemic forever. Right, It's going
Speaker 1: to become endemic. COVID's going to be out there forever.
Speaker 1: People are starting to finally admit that. Happy to see though,
Speaker 1: that at least it got struck down. Now people can
Speaker 1: evict those who have refused to pay rent for a
Speaker 1: very long time. Very pleased of course by this turn
Speaker 1: of events. It's the way it should be. And it
Speaker 1: is a reminder though that the left will they will
Speaker 1: abuse the law, that will use the law in whatever
Speaker 1: ways they see fit for their own power. And their
Speaker 1: Supreme Court justices always deliver for them on whatever it
Speaker 1: may be. Let's get into some roll call. Here we go.
Speaker 1: First up, T J. Buck, I gotta call you out.
Speaker 1: It sounded like the end of your podcast Monday. You
Speaker 1: jumped off the DeSantis twenty twenty four train and onto
Speaker 1: the Trump twenty twenty four train. You were pretty solid
Speaker 1: DeSantis supporter for a bit there. What happened? Do you
Speaker 1: know something about Desantists and or Trump? The rest of
Speaker 1: us don't. Maybe you and your buddy Matt Walsh ought
Speaker 1: to do a crossover episode where you debate Desantist versus
Speaker 1: Trump for twenty twenty four. Personally, I'm still into Santist
Speaker 1: camp because of Trump's age, but I'd like to hear
Speaker 1: some honest debate about who'd make for a better president
Speaker 1: of the two potential candidates, and I think you and
Speaker 1: Matt present the arguments in very respectful ways. First of all,
Speaker 1: a lot of respect for Matt Walsh. Smart guy, does
Speaker 1: very good work. I'm totally I think DeSantis is fantastic.
Speaker 1: I think DeSantis has done a phenomenal job as the
Speaker 1: governor of Florida. I think that he'd be a great
Speaker 1: presidential candidate. I also think that Donald Trump is clearly
Speaker 1: very formidable still in the political arena, and I think
Speaker 1: that he would give us four more great years if
Speaker 1: he could get it. So, I mean, you're asking me,
Speaker 1: it's kind of like, who do I want my champion
Speaker 1: to be? The Hulk or the Thing? Well, actually produce
Speaker 1: a mark. If you're in a bar fight, do you
Speaker 1: want the Hulk or the Thing to be at your
Speaker 1: bed to have your side? The Hulk? Really? Of course?
Speaker 1: Is he stronger than the Thing? Yes, he is. He's
Speaker 1: the strongest superhero there is stronger than Thor. I mean,
Speaker 1: I guess it's just brewed strength. That would be Hulk.
Speaker 1: Thor is the sneaky strength that you don't expect, all right,
Speaker 1: Thor versus iron Man bar fight producer Mark, I guess
Speaker 1: you have to take Thor because iron Man's not really
Speaker 1: a superhero. He just has all the technology. Yeah, technically. Also,
Speaker 1: I think Thor is a god, right, which is kind
Speaker 1: of cool. Yes, Like I feel like that would help
Speaker 1: you get some phone numbers at a bar and doesn't
Speaker 1: control Actually I'm actually a god. Yeah, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean? Thanks from Asgard. It's really cool. Yeah, yeah, Hey, baby,
Speaker 1: you come up to Asgard for some why and coolers.
Speaker 1: An iron man is rich, so good call. And then
Speaker 1: his house in Malibu is very fancy from the movies.
Speaker 1: I do remember that, so but TJ to what you're
Speaker 1: asking here, Uh, I still think. I still think DeSantis
Speaker 1: is great. I think DeSantis does an excellent job. So
Speaker 1: all all about it. Um, I would be very happy
Speaker 1: if he ran. I'd support him, you know. And look,
Speaker 1: I also we also need to hold politicians accountable and
Speaker 1: and ask them questions about what they're doing and everything else.
Speaker 1: I never want to make it seem like, oh, I'm
Speaker 1: just gonna I'm I'm working for the DeSantis campaign. But
Speaker 1: I think he's I think he's great, and I support him.
Speaker 1: I'd support Trump, and I think they're gonna work it out.
Speaker 1: They're not going to run against each other. So Trump
Speaker 1: either passes the torch or he's got one more. He's
Speaker 1: got one more go in him, and I'm all, I'm
Speaker 1: all for it. Sarah Buck. But ifan of yours for
Speaker 1: a number of years love the work you do in
Speaker 1: the message you preach, a question for you. Since Joe
Speaker 1: Biden is verifiably unfit cognitively and we can all see it.
Speaker 1: Doesn't Kamela some responsibility for this mess in Afghanistan? She
Speaker 1: says she was the last one of the Roman Biden
Speaker 1: decided to pull out, and then she conveniently leaves the country.
Speaker 1: That's like setting the drunk man up behind the wheel,
Speaker 1: buckling him in and then fleeing the scene. She has
Speaker 1: completely abandoned her post. Is she not partially to blame
Speaker 1: for this fiasco? Recall them all? Well, interesting Kamala. First
Speaker 1: of all, there's not a recall mechanism for the for
Speaker 1: the presidency, Just to be clear, Sarah. But I hear
Speaker 1: what you're saying. I don't know how much Kamala is
Speaker 1: involved in any of this decision making. I think Kamala
Speaker 1: is largely involved in this administration for optics purposes. I
Speaker 1: do not think anybody believes that she has a particular
Speaker 1: area of company competency. I don't think anybody really believes
Speaker 1: that Kamala is endowed with leadership qualities or strategic thinking
Speaker 1: at a level where they really care what she thinks
Speaker 1: in thisistration. But you raise an interesting point, kas Kamala
Speaker 1: is tied to this administration and so at some level
Speaker 1: she must be involved in some of the planning and
Speaker 1: therefore some of the blame for what's going on Afghanistan.
Speaker 1: But it'd be tough to get to the bottom of
Speaker 1: that without actually having a press corps that would push
Speaker 1: for information, and trust me, they don't want to get
Speaker 1: into that. Ken. Hey, Buck, I was very concerned there'll
Speaker 1: be no one to take over after Russia's death, but
Speaker 1: then I happened to hear your show and thought he
Speaker 1: is the guy. Very glad you and Clay got the nod.
Speaker 1: You're doing a great job. Thanks Buck Well, Thank you, Ken.
Speaker 1: I really appreciate that very much and it was great.
Speaker 1: That's where I'm trying to do, trying to do the
Speaker 1: best show I can every day and doing the best
Speaker 1: podcast I can every day too, which is why I'm
Speaker 1: hoping you will share the podcast. Let's see here, Maria
Speaker 1: Buck You're my hero and I love you Clay as well.
Speaker 1: Best big show podcast so far, very powerful. I am
Speaker 1: still crying. Thank you so much for stepping up with
Speaker 1: the plan and committing to help the soldier bring his
Speaker 1: interpreter and family out of Afghanistan. In the end, all
Speaker 1: we have is our integrity and our word. I hope
Speaker 1: and pray you are successfulness mission again. Thank you, Maria,
Speaker 1: thank you. It really means a lot, and I appreciate
Speaker 1: the support and client. I are doing the best show
Speaker 1: Weeken every day, and I of course get to do
Speaker 1: this show for all of you, which I really enjoy
Speaker 1: as well. I just get to have a direct conversation
Speaker 1: with you, and it's a lot of fun. Darren, Hi Buck,
Speaker 1: I appreciate the work you're doing in support of our
Speaker 1: great country or bringing the truth for it on those
Speaker 1: destroying this country. I would grasonally greatly appreciate your feedback.
Speaker 1: My son recently graduated from university and has an interest
Speaker 1: in a job that would give them the opportunity to
Speaker 1: support the USA, possibly the CIA, or some national or
Speaker 1: international agency. God blessed Shields High Apply online, Darren, it's
Speaker 1: all That's where it all happens, believe or not. You
Speaker 1: apply online, you get it going. And I mean, I'm
Speaker 1: out of the game now so long that I don't
Speaker 1: even know what the official process is these days. I
Speaker 1: mean it's been I haven't been the intelligence community in
Speaker 1: over ten years now, so i'd have but I do
Speaker 1: know that they take online applications for a lot of
Speaker 1: important government jobs, and Darren, I'd say, just tell your
Speaker 1: son not to get frustrated by the fact that there
Speaker 1: will be Not only is there bureaucracy once you start
Speaker 1: working for the federal government, but there's a lot of
Speaker 1: bureaucracy that you have to go through to even get
Speaker 1: a job in the federal government. So that's where that is.
Speaker 1: Chris hey Buck, active duty marine lawyer here stationed overseas.
Speaker 1: I woke up this morning at three hundred messages about
Speaker 1: what happened in Kabble. I'm just angry. Obviously, I'm a
Speaker 1: marine lawyer, not some battle hardened warrior. I'll likely never
Speaker 1: see a battlefield in my life. I'm angry because the dishonesty,
Speaker 1: and because this president and the top officials treat us
Speaker 1: as idiots, as if we can't see reality, as if
Speaker 1: we'll just lap up their garbage without question. The inability
Speaker 1: to admit mistakes or fault or even the slightest bit
Speaker 1: of potential for improvement is maddening. I have no spect
Speaker 1: for these people. I'd like to think if they showed
Speaker 1: up here, I'd be tempted to spit on their feet
Speaker 1: as they walked by. The whole situation Afghanistan still feels
Speaker 1: pretty far removed from me. My day to day life
Speaker 1: isn't going to change. I still have my job to do,
Speaker 1: but I must say it's hard to find joy in
Speaker 1: work when this wholly unnecessary death happens in my organization,
Speaker 1: even a half a world away. Rest easy, Devil Dogs Center, Fidelis, Chris,
Speaker 1: thank you for writing in and I look, I think
Speaker 1: a lot of them we're all angry about what happened
Speaker 1: in Cobble and just the incompetence of the administration on display,
Speaker 1: and what a mess this whole thing is. And it
Speaker 1: did not have to be this way. I think that
Speaker 1: much is quite clear, and I'm with you. I'm praying
Speaker 1: for the families of those lost, and for our marines
Speaker 1: and every member of the armed forces that has downranged
Speaker 1: right now in Afghanistan doing a job that puts them
Speaker 1: in harm's way and serving their country and showing tremendous
Speaker 1: bravery in the process. Oh, I'm gonna have to tell
Speaker 1: you to have a great weekend coming up here, folks. Oh,
Speaker 1: let'scheck up with our buddy producer Mark for a second
Speaker 1: to see what his weekend plans are. What's going on
Speaker 1: producing Mark? Anything fun, just more unpacking and just getting
Speaker 1: things said, we're pretty much done, but you know now
Speaker 1: we gotta do things like go to the container's store
Speaker 1: and you know, organized stuff to that part of the
Speaker 1: house buying process. How is how is the new place?
Speaker 1: You like it? Yeah? We like it. It's getting more
Speaker 1: and more like a home every weekend when we have
Speaker 1: a chance to work on it. Nice. Nice. Do you
Speaker 1: have some plants? I feel like that's always an adulting thing,
Speaker 1: you know, you all of a sudden you get plants
Speaker 1: that you have to take care of. I've thought about
Speaker 1: getting some plants. We have a nice window sill right
Speaker 1: by the kitchen sink that would be a cool place
Speaker 1: to put them, So I've thought about it. Yeah, there
Speaker 1: we go. That's what I'm talking about. Maybe you get
Speaker 1: some plants. It'll be the first thing I've had to
Speaker 1: keep alive in a very long time. What about a
Speaker 1: pet that you could have in like a terrarium or
Speaker 1: some kind of enclosure. Are you allowed to do that?
Speaker 1: I know you said no dogs or cats. Yeah, pretty much,
Speaker 1: no animals. I'm sure I could get away like a
Speaker 1: fish or something. But what do I want to fish for?
Speaker 1: I've always wondered if a lizard can bond with a person,
Speaker 1: like if you have a lizard pet. You know, if
Speaker 1: you have a gecko or something and one of those
Speaker 1: lit terrariums, does the gecko start to like you after
Speaker 1: a while? I feel like their brains are too small
Speaker 1: so they can't actually do that. But and they're not cute. Well,
Speaker 1: what'll I want that in my house? And what if
Speaker 1: it gets loose? Geckos aren't bad. Yeah, no, I wouldn't.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to have like a spitting cobra as
Speaker 1: a pet. I'm always I'm always kind of astonished when
Speaker 1: when you see one of the stories like man loses
Speaker 1: like pet king cobra in apartment, like looking forward, it's like,
Speaker 1: I don't think that's a good idea as a pet.
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna put that out there. Yeah, And why
Speaker 1: would you want to gecko? Those little lizards? They have
Speaker 1: them all over Florida. They enter people's houses without permission.
Speaker 1: And I'm still hoping to get to the Ted Lasso
Speaker 1: show this weekend. Although I saw I think it was
Speaker 1: actually Matt Walsh bringing him up again on the show,
Speaker 1: who said that he did not find it funny. Poor opinion. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you're not with him on that one. I mean almost everybody.
Speaker 1: I think Matt Walsh was the first person I've heard
Speaker 1: that doesn't like Ted Lazo. I think he was the
Speaker 1: first one that I saw that that was very, very
Speaker 1: opposed to it. But I'll off to check it out
Speaker 1: myself and see and see what's what. But can you
Speaker 1: believe that it's almost the end of the summer, Producer Bark,
Speaker 1: I can't believe it, only two summer weekends left. It's crazy.
Speaker 1: It feels like it's flown by so fast. It's a
Speaker 1: crazy time. We live in my friends so we'll say
Speaker 1: hi to everybody. We'll do well. No, he'd like say
Speaker 1: hi to everybody. They're like house producer Marks, so you
Speaker 1: can say hi everybody. Oh, Hi everybody. Sorry, I thought
Speaker 1: you were telling me to say hi to everybody. Hello everybody. Yeah, so,
Speaker 1: producer Mark. I just because people when they don't hear
Speaker 1: from you for a few days, they were like this
Speaker 1: producer Mark, okay, are you are you hiding producer marketing
Speaker 1: basement somewhere. I'm like, no, he's just working on the
Speaker 1: big radio show. And some days we can't get him
Speaker 1: on the podcast. But today he's on the podcast. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: I have a lot of extra duties. Now, it's not
Speaker 1: just the radio show. I do a lot of stuff. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's got a lot of things, a lot of things.
