WEBVTT - "Walls Work, Walls Save Lives"

0:00:00.960 --> 0:00:15.280
<v Speaker 1>You are entering the freedom hunt. So there's an offer

0:00:15.320 --> 0:00:18.320
<v Speaker 1>on the table. Congress says that they've struck an agreement.

0:00:18.520 --> 0:00:21.040
<v Speaker 1>Is it good enough for President Trump? Is the money

0:00:21.200 --> 0:00:25.040
<v Speaker 1>enough for the border wall? President seems to have two

0:00:25.079 --> 0:00:27.320
<v Speaker 1>minds on this issue. Will break that down. And also

0:00:27.840 --> 0:00:32.320
<v Speaker 1>what about the Obama administration when it came to border patrol. Oh,

0:00:32.400 --> 0:00:35.879
<v Speaker 1>let's have the former chief of Obama's border patrol tell

0:00:36.000 --> 0:00:38.720
<v Speaker 1>us that we're right on all of this stuff that's

0:00:38.720 --> 0:00:42.879
<v Speaker 1>coming up. This is the Buck Sexton Show, where the

0:00:42.920 --> 0:00:46.200
<v Speaker 1>mission or mission is to decode what really matters with

0:00:46.320 --> 0:00:53.160
<v Speaker 1>actionable intelligence. Make no mistake American, you're a great American. Again,

0:00:53.280 --> 0:01:03.440
<v Speaker 1>The Buck Sexton Show begins. Sexton, No, last year, Quarez

0:01:03.960 --> 0:01:09.240
<v Speaker 1>had one thousand, two hundred murders. El Paso, right next

0:01:09.319 --> 0:01:15.160
<v Speaker 1>door a few feet away, had twenty three murders. Walls work, Actually,

0:01:15.360 --> 0:01:17.840
<v Speaker 1>there's nothing like them for what we're talking about. We

0:01:17.840 --> 0:01:20.800
<v Speaker 1>want to stop drugs, we want to stop traffickers, we

0:01:20.840 --> 0:01:25.400
<v Speaker 1>want to stop criminals from coming in. Walls save lives.

0:01:25.880 --> 0:01:28.600
<v Speaker 1>The amount of money that is here, it would take

0:01:28.680 --> 0:01:32.160
<v Speaker 1>twenty years to complete the wall. So are we going

0:01:32.240 --> 0:01:35.200
<v Speaker 1>to wait for twenty years to stop drug traffickers. Are

0:01:35.200 --> 0:01:38.039
<v Speaker 1>we going to wait for twenty years to stop human trafficking?

0:01:38.080 --> 0:01:41.120
<v Speaker 1>Are we gonna wait twenty years to allow cartels to

0:01:41.160 --> 0:01:43.720
<v Speaker 1>control our southern border? I hope not. We can do

0:01:43.800 --> 0:01:46.640
<v Speaker 1>better than that. We should do better than that. Welcome

0:01:46.640 --> 0:01:49.600
<v Speaker 1>to the Buck Sexton Show Live from New York City today,

0:01:49.760 --> 0:01:54.760
<v Speaker 1>the Freedom Hunt packed going back to its roots here NYC. So,

0:01:54.840 --> 0:01:59.000
<v Speaker 1>which is it, folks? Walls work, but not enough money

0:01:59.000 --> 0:02:01.920
<v Speaker 1>for the wall? Wise that? So I want to explain

0:02:02.040 --> 0:02:07.360
<v Speaker 1>that one or try to. We have now gathered all

0:02:07.400 --> 0:02:10.920
<v Speaker 1>the information as a country, had had this debate in public,

0:02:11.919 --> 0:02:14.520
<v Speaker 1>and we know that walls work. But Democrats still don't

0:02:14.560 --> 0:02:18.000
<v Speaker 1>want to sufficiently fund a wall just a little tiny bit,

0:02:18.800 --> 0:02:23.000
<v Speaker 1>A little tiny bit, I mean more than say Nancy

0:02:23.040 --> 0:02:27.399
<v Speaker 1>Pelosi was going to offer up not long ago when

0:02:27.440 --> 0:02:32.480
<v Speaker 1>she was saying, oh, she would give how much? Was

0:02:32.520 --> 0:02:35.040
<v Speaker 1>it is in a situation which you would accept even

0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:38.720
<v Speaker 1>a dollar of wall funding for this president in order

0:02:38.760 --> 0:02:49.520
<v Speaker 1>to reopen the government a dollar? Hahaha? Nancy? What looks

0:02:49.520 --> 0:02:53.040
<v Speaker 1>like they're giving about a billion times and change that.

0:02:53.919 --> 0:02:57.440
<v Speaker 1>But it's still not enough money. It is not enough money,

0:02:57.480 --> 0:02:59.520
<v Speaker 1>will not build a wall fast enough. The crisis is

0:02:59.520 --> 0:03:03.440
<v Speaker 1>getting works. The system is getting increasingly overloaded. I mentioned

0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:05.560
<v Speaker 1>the very top here. We're gonna have the chief of

0:03:05.600 --> 0:03:08.919
<v Speaker 1>border patrol from the Obama years to join us, and

0:03:08.960 --> 0:03:11.120
<v Speaker 1>then don't don't change that dial. Don't be like, hey,

0:03:11.200 --> 0:03:12.760
<v Speaker 1>well Buck, we don't. We don't need to hear any

0:03:12.760 --> 0:03:15.280
<v Speaker 1>of that. None of this guy's he's a professional. He's

0:03:15.280 --> 0:03:18.440
<v Speaker 1>a practitioner, somebody who did who did the work at

0:03:18.440 --> 0:03:21.079
<v Speaker 1>the border and knows what was going on there. And

0:03:21.320 --> 0:03:23.480
<v Speaker 1>he's gonna come on. I've I've talked to him before.

0:03:23.480 --> 0:03:28.200
<v Speaker 1>I talked him this morning actually on Rising and he's like, look,

0:03:28.200 --> 0:03:31.160
<v Speaker 1>the Democrats are just wrong on this, just they're just

0:03:31.200 --> 0:03:34.040
<v Speaker 1>not telling the truth or they don't know. We need

0:03:34.080 --> 0:03:39.000
<v Speaker 1>a wall. There is a crisis. This is Obama's border

0:03:39.000 --> 0:03:41.240
<v Speaker 1>patrol chief, Okay, under the Obama years. And I'm gonna

0:03:41.240 --> 0:03:43.000
<v Speaker 1>ask him about that in depth. That'll come up the

0:03:43.040 --> 0:03:45.360
<v Speaker 1>next hour. You should definitely stick around for that. There

0:03:45.440 --> 0:03:49.560
<v Speaker 1>there is no more there's no expert group. And I

0:03:49.640 --> 0:03:51.720
<v Speaker 1>heard this so much from the Democrats and from the

0:03:51.800 --> 0:03:54.400
<v Speaker 1>left and the media and all their lackeys on MS

0:03:54.480 --> 0:03:57.760
<v Speaker 1>and CNN and the rest. There is no experts say

0:03:57.880 --> 0:04:01.280
<v Speaker 1>walls don't work. That's a lie. It's alive. I've heard

0:04:01.360 --> 0:04:04.600
<v Speaker 1>so many times, but you know we have to counter

0:04:04.720 --> 0:04:06.800
<v Speaker 1>it repeatedly. If I just tell you, if I come

0:04:06.840 --> 0:04:09.880
<v Speaker 1>on the show and tell you once, well you know

0:04:09.960 --> 0:04:11.800
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna hear it from other people a hundred times.

0:04:11.840 --> 0:04:14.120
<v Speaker 1>At walls don't work. If you watch some of the

0:04:14.200 --> 0:04:15.680
<v Speaker 1>left wing, which I hope you don't do, but if

0:04:15.720 --> 0:04:17.360
<v Speaker 1>you do, that's fine. You know some of the left

0:04:17.360 --> 0:04:20.720
<v Speaker 1>wing cable news channels out there and some of you,

0:04:20.839 --> 0:04:24.040
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna aren't gonna hear me that day on that show.

0:04:24.080 --> 0:04:26.000
<v Speaker 1>You know, we have to fight back. I mean, this

0:04:26.200 --> 0:04:30.599
<v Speaker 1>is a messaging war, so we have to repeatedly shoot

0:04:30.640 --> 0:04:34.080
<v Speaker 1>down their lies because they are lying it is. They

0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:40.520
<v Speaker 1>are mendacious on this issue. Keep doing it. I do think, however,

0:04:40.560 --> 0:04:42.640
<v Speaker 1>the White House is overselling what a win this is.

0:04:42.720 --> 0:04:46.919
<v Speaker 1>It's just it's not enough money. And the options I

0:04:46.960 --> 0:04:50.480
<v Speaker 1>suppose are shut down, which happened, would happen this weekend

0:04:51.320 --> 0:04:54.640
<v Speaker 1>shut down and declare national emergency shut down and try

0:04:54.640 --> 0:04:56.200
<v Speaker 1>to ride it out again, which I don't think the

0:04:56.200 --> 0:05:01.080
<v Speaker 1>administration has a stomach for. And we're just signed this thing,

0:05:01.160 --> 0:05:04.480
<v Speaker 1>and then declare some kind of national emergency and keep

0:05:04.480 --> 0:05:10.680
<v Speaker 1>in mind that there are federal statutes in place already

0:05:10.720 --> 0:05:13.240
<v Speaker 1>that would allow the President of the United States, as

0:05:13.279 --> 0:05:15.919
<v Speaker 1>the commander in chief, to use d D funding to

0:05:16.000 --> 0:05:19.920
<v Speaker 1>construct barriers that would prevent the importation of dangerous and

0:05:19.960 --> 0:05:25.159
<v Speaker 1>illegal substances drugs in the United States. Trump has the

0:05:25.240 --> 0:05:28.640
<v Speaker 1>legal authority to just build a wall, they'd have to

0:05:28.640 --> 0:05:31.320
<v Speaker 1>shift some money around. I kind of like what Ted

0:05:31.360 --> 0:05:34.080
<v Speaker 1>Cruz was saying about having El Chapo pay for it,

0:05:34.440 --> 0:05:37.520
<v Speaker 1>assuming we could seize those assets in Mexico. Wouldn't try

0:05:37.560 --> 0:05:40.840
<v Speaker 1>to challenge that, you know, I don't know, But if

0:05:40.839 --> 0:05:42.839
<v Speaker 1>Mexico try to challenge that, then I would just say, hey, Mexico,

0:05:42.880 --> 0:05:46.360
<v Speaker 1>guess about the twenty billion a year in untaxed remittances

0:05:46.400 --> 0:05:49.160
<v Speaker 1>that you get for your economy. This that cold, hard

0:05:49.160 --> 0:05:51.600
<v Speaker 1>cash it's being sent back to your country from America

0:05:51.720 --> 0:05:55.080
<v Speaker 1>from predominantly not entirely, but from a lot of illegal

0:05:55.080 --> 0:06:00.520
<v Speaker 1>aliens as well as legal ones. That money. We're gonna

0:06:00.520 --> 0:06:03.400
<v Speaker 1>start taxing that. So we we have leverage. We have

0:06:03.480 --> 0:06:05.680
<v Speaker 1>levers that we can use with Mexico on this. But

0:06:06.240 --> 0:06:09.240
<v Speaker 1>I still think that the wall absolutely needs to get built.

0:06:10.279 --> 0:06:13.440
<v Speaker 1>But I wanted to also just take a moment here

0:06:13.520 --> 0:06:18.880
<v Speaker 1>to enjoy. Another phenomenon that is occurring right now, and

0:06:18.960 --> 0:06:25.320
<v Speaker 1>that is Democrats are increasingly triggered by the words of

0:06:25.360 --> 0:06:29.400
<v Speaker 1>the leaders of their own party. Democrats become upset when

0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:35.000
<v Speaker 1>you do really nasty, unfair things to them, like print

0:06:35.760 --> 0:06:41.120
<v Speaker 1>their policy documents, read their quotes, play videos of them

0:06:41.160 --> 0:06:44.599
<v Speaker 1>saying what they believe. This has now become mean. It's

0:06:44.680 --> 0:06:48.040
<v Speaker 1>mean to Ocasio Cortez to talk about what's really in

0:06:48.080 --> 0:06:53.480
<v Speaker 1>the Green New Deal. It's mean to Representative Omar to

0:06:53.560 --> 0:06:55.440
<v Speaker 1>point out what she says and what she thinks on

0:06:55.480 --> 0:06:59.400
<v Speaker 1>foreign policy. I mean, just go down the list. You know,

0:07:00.200 --> 0:07:02.400
<v Speaker 1>these are things that you would think the Democrats would

0:07:02.440 --> 0:07:07.240
<v Speaker 1>be excited. Why aren't they excited to say, take a

0:07:07.360 --> 0:07:11.680
<v Speaker 1>vote on the Green New Deal? I mean. Mitch McConnell,

0:07:12.480 --> 0:07:15.760
<v Speaker 1>known to some of us as Cocaine Mitch, which is

0:07:16.000 --> 0:07:17.600
<v Speaker 1>a joke that I'm sure many of you familiar with,

0:07:17.680 --> 0:07:19.440
<v Speaker 1>has to do a crazy ad that I think ran

0:07:19.520 --> 0:07:23.200
<v Speaker 1>in West Virginia about Mitch McConnell some I'm candidate, and

0:07:23.200 --> 0:07:25.600
<v Speaker 1>it just caught on became a meme. I have it

0:07:25.640 --> 0:07:29.080
<v Speaker 1>on good authority that Mitch McConnell finds that funny. By

0:07:29.120 --> 0:07:31.160
<v Speaker 1>the way that he finds the Cocaine Mitch stuff funny.

0:07:31.160 --> 0:07:33.640
<v Speaker 1>So it's okay. He laughs about it too. But people

0:07:33.680 --> 0:07:35.440
<v Speaker 1>I'll call him Cocaine Mitch, and they do a lot

0:07:35.440 --> 0:07:38.840
<v Speaker 1>of memes like he's Tony Montana from from Scarface. They'll

0:07:38.880 --> 0:07:42.320
<v Speaker 1>they'll photo shop Mitch McConnell's face on a Tony Montana,

0:07:42.400 --> 0:07:46.000
<v Speaker 1>you know. And Mitch McConnell had had this idea that

0:07:46.040 --> 0:07:51.040
<v Speaker 1>I think is great, which is, let's have Democrats senators

0:07:51.200 --> 0:07:53.520
<v Speaker 1>that are especially because there's a lot of Democrats centors

0:07:53.560 --> 0:07:56.400
<v Speaker 1>that are gonna be running for the presidency, let's have them.

0:07:56.440 --> 0:07:59.760
<v Speaker 1>It was Don Blankenship that ran the ad. Nice. Yeah,

0:08:00.000 --> 0:08:02.920
<v Speaker 1>remember that ad Cocaine Mitch. You know, he started just

0:08:02.960 --> 0:08:05.480
<v Speaker 1>mumbling about something about cocaine. Everyone's like what. That was

0:08:05.520 --> 0:08:08.040
<v Speaker 1>one of the craziest ads for any political race that

0:08:08.080 --> 0:08:11.960
<v Speaker 1>anyone's ever seen. That was nuts anyway, So Mitch McConnell

0:08:11.960 --> 0:08:14.600
<v Speaker 1>has this idea, we'll hold on a second, let's just

0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:19.560
<v Speaker 1>have people who say, therefore, the Green New Deal as

0:08:19.560 --> 0:08:22.800
<v Speaker 1>it stands right now. And then the media has been

0:08:23.000 --> 0:08:27.520
<v Speaker 1>running all kinds of interference for just how stupid the

0:08:27.560 --> 0:08:30.440
<v Speaker 1>Green New Deal really is. I mean, first of just

0:08:30.480 --> 0:08:32.960
<v Speaker 1>this the grandiose language. This is gonna be a new deal,

0:08:33.160 --> 0:08:36.520
<v Speaker 1>it's all. It's never gonna happen. I mean, I certainly

0:08:36.520 --> 0:08:39.000
<v Speaker 1>hope not. It would destroy the economy, but it's unlikely

0:08:39.040 --> 0:08:42.200
<v Speaker 1>this thing will ever even become a law. But this

0:08:42.400 --> 0:08:45.400
<v Speaker 1>is a get the base fired up tactic from the

0:08:45.480 --> 0:08:48.000
<v Speaker 1>left right. This is the base trying to be all or.

0:08:48.200 --> 0:08:49.960
<v Speaker 1>This is the Democrats rather trying to get their base

0:08:50.040 --> 0:08:53.679
<v Speaker 1>all excited about just how progressive and radical and all

0:08:53.720 --> 0:08:57.200
<v Speaker 1>these new ideas that they have. And Mitch McConnell had

0:08:57.240 --> 0:09:04.120
<v Speaker 1>this crazy idea. His idea was, let's just have these senators,

0:09:04.160 --> 0:09:08.160
<v Speaker 1>the Democrats sentators, vote on this, because if you get

0:09:08.240 --> 0:09:12.240
<v Speaker 1>them on the record voting in favor of this massive

0:09:12.280 --> 0:09:16.160
<v Speaker 1>transformation of the American economy, that makes it harder for

0:09:16.240 --> 0:09:18.840
<v Speaker 1>them later on to say, yeah, you know, I wasn't

0:09:18.880 --> 0:09:20.720
<v Speaker 1>really I wasn't really so down with that whole Green

0:09:20.760 --> 0:09:23.560
<v Speaker 1>New Deal thing. You know, Nancy Pelosi, somebody who talks,

0:09:24.160 --> 0:09:26.840
<v Speaker 1>who talks a big game about climate change because she

0:09:26.880 --> 0:09:29.200
<v Speaker 1>knows that the base likes it. But when you'll notice,

0:09:29.200 --> 0:09:33.360
<v Speaker 1>when the Green New Deal came out, she was like, yeah,

0:09:32.480 --> 0:09:36.080
<v Speaker 1>that's cute. I mean, she wasn't taking it seriously. Tells

0:09:36.080 --> 0:09:40.080
<v Speaker 1>you about how unserious the whole thing was. But I

0:09:40.200 --> 0:09:43.920
<v Speaker 1>like that Mitch now takes the approach of let's just

0:09:44.120 --> 0:09:48.520
<v Speaker 1>let the Democrats be Democrats. Let's show the American people

0:09:48.720 --> 0:09:51.880
<v Speaker 1>what the Democratic Party is really about, which is socialism

0:09:51.880 --> 0:09:56.160
<v Speaker 1>and fanticide, open borders, higher taxes, less economic growth, less

0:09:56.200 --> 0:09:59.760
<v Speaker 1>personal freedom. Let's just let people see this for what

0:09:59.840 --> 0:10:03.520
<v Speaker 1>it is. Because they don't have a Hillary candidate now.

0:10:03.640 --> 0:10:07.400
<v Speaker 1>They don't have some some establishment figure that has been

0:10:07.400 --> 0:10:10.600
<v Speaker 1>propped up and a narrative has been crafted around that

0:10:10.679 --> 0:10:15.920
<v Speaker 1>person of being a centrist, a competent technocrat, all just

0:10:16.600 --> 0:10:20.320
<v Speaker 1>mythology around Hillary. They don't really have that person. Now

0:10:20.720 --> 0:10:24.000
<v Speaker 1>you have a Democrat primary that's looking like it's going

0:10:24.080 --> 0:10:26.640
<v Speaker 1>to be a total free for all. There's really no

0:10:26.760 --> 0:10:30.040
<v Speaker 1>front runner at all at this point, and sometimes this

0:10:30.120 --> 0:10:33.040
<v Speaker 1>takes so I understand sometimes it takes a while to consolidate.

0:10:33.080 --> 0:10:38.240
<v Speaker 1>You look at you know when John Kerry consolidated his lead.

0:10:39.160 --> 0:10:41.440
<v Speaker 1>It happened after the first few states. So we're early

0:10:41.520 --> 0:10:43.120
<v Speaker 1>in this. I understand that I don't want to get

0:10:43.120 --> 0:10:47.760
<v Speaker 1>too far ahead of us. But Democrats in my lifetime

0:10:47.840 --> 0:10:50.240
<v Speaker 1>have never started out with as radical and left wing

0:10:50.360 --> 0:10:53.240
<v Speaker 1>a platform is what you're seeing right now. And I

0:10:53.280 --> 0:10:55.760
<v Speaker 1>think Mitch is right to try to get them on

0:10:55.800 --> 0:10:58.199
<v Speaker 1>the record, you know. I think Mitch is right to

0:10:59.440 --> 0:11:03.000
<v Speaker 1>see that the Democrats shouldn't have to Actually, they should

0:11:03.040 --> 0:11:05.040
<v Speaker 1>have to drink the medicine that they're trying to foist

0:11:05.080 --> 0:11:06.760
<v Speaker 1>on the rest of the American people, and they should

0:11:06.760 --> 0:11:09.160
<v Speaker 1>have to they should have to be users of their

0:11:09.160 --> 0:11:11.640
<v Speaker 1>own products, so to speak. Yeah, you like this Green

0:11:11.720 --> 0:11:13.640
<v Speaker 1>New Deal stuff, go on the record and talk and

0:11:13.679 --> 0:11:16.640
<v Speaker 1>go on the record so that way later on you

0:11:16.720 --> 0:11:18.480
<v Speaker 1>have to defend this, and you can't just pretend that

0:11:18.480 --> 0:11:21.400
<v Speaker 1>this was some passing media fad that had nothing to

0:11:21.400 --> 0:11:28.520
<v Speaker 1>do with anything. Green New Deal is basically crazy. So meanwhile,

0:11:29.720 --> 0:11:34.120
<v Speaker 1>Kirsten Gillibrand, who doesn't seem to know much about anything,

0:11:34.160 --> 0:11:37.600
<v Speaker 1>from what I can gather, she's a big fan of this.

0:11:38.640 --> 0:11:40.960
<v Speaker 1>We want to see a green economy in the next decade,

0:11:41.240 --> 0:11:43.840
<v Speaker 1>not because it's easy, but because it's hard. Part of

0:11:43.840 --> 0:11:47.360
<v Speaker 1>the Green New Deal there's some really important components like

0:11:47.440 --> 0:11:50.240
<v Speaker 1>clean air and clean water as a right, cleaning up

0:11:50.320 --> 0:11:53.319
<v Speaker 1>all these super fun sites and all these brown fields,

0:11:53.440 --> 0:11:57.079
<v Speaker 1>making sure we invest in green technologies and teach young

0:11:57.120 --> 0:12:00.840
<v Speaker 1>people how to build solar panels and do wind turbines

0:12:00.880 --> 0:12:06.640
<v Speaker 1>and geothermal and hydropower and biofuels, like that's important and exciting.

0:12:06.880 --> 0:12:09.560
<v Speaker 1>There's so much opportunity in this bill for economic growth

0:12:09.920 --> 0:12:15.000
<v Speaker 1>and really fixing things that are broken. She just has

0:12:15.040 --> 0:12:19.880
<v Speaker 1>no idea what she's talking about. Doesn't understand how business works,

0:12:19.920 --> 0:12:24.199
<v Speaker 1>doesn't understand how these technologies work. It's just blather. It's

0:12:24.240 --> 0:12:27.120
<v Speaker 1>just nonsense. You're going to teach young people about solar panels?

0:12:29.080 --> 0:12:30.800
<v Speaker 1>What or how did I think? Did you say how

0:12:30.800 --> 0:12:32.640
<v Speaker 1>to make solar panels? That's what it sounded like the meaning.

0:12:32.640 --> 0:12:34.000
<v Speaker 1>But I was like, that will be here. That sounds

0:12:34.000 --> 0:12:36.959
<v Speaker 1>like a fun class. Welcome to solar panel making one

0:12:37.000 --> 0:12:40.040
<v Speaker 1>oh one, where you will be able to make exactly

0:12:40.040 --> 0:12:42.360
<v Speaker 1>one solar panel over the course of the semester. That's

0:12:42.360 --> 0:12:43.640
<v Speaker 1>not a fun class. I don't want to be in

0:12:43.679 --> 0:12:48.400
<v Speaker 1>that class. So these are the Democrats. We are seeing

0:12:48.400 --> 0:12:50.200
<v Speaker 1>who they are, We're seeing what their agenda is for

0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:53.240
<v Speaker 1>the country, and it's you can tell. I think there's

0:12:53.280 --> 0:12:58.280
<v Speaker 1>an exhalation of relief from a lot of people in

0:12:58.320 --> 0:13:00.760
<v Speaker 1>Trump world. It's like, oh, that's right, Look, it's not

0:13:00.880 --> 0:13:03.720
<v Speaker 1>the Trump administration hasn't been perfect, wall hasn't been built.

0:13:03.720 --> 0:13:05.560
<v Speaker 1>There's things that still has to get done. We got

0:13:05.559 --> 0:13:08.080
<v Speaker 1>to hold their feet to the fire, no doubt. But

0:13:09.000 --> 0:13:12.240
<v Speaker 1>at least they're not the Democrats. That's what you've really

0:13:12.280 --> 0:13:17.240
<v Speaker 1>had our last month or so. Is this point in

0:13:17.280 --> 0:13:20.000
<v Speaker 1>time when we all get to remember, Oh, our side

0:13:20.080 --> 0:13:22.400
<v Speaker 1>is at least trying to grapple with reality as it

0:13:22.480 --> 0:13:23.680
<v Speaker 1>is trying to come up with ways to make this

0:13:23.720 --> 0:13:29.719
<v Speaker 1>country better and stronger and all that stuff. Democrats are like,

0:13:29.800 --> 0:13:31.600
<v Speaker 1>let's just pretend that we're in some kind of a

0:13:31.640 --> 0:13:33.960
<v Speaker 1>fantasy land and just make it up as we go along.

0:13:35.640 --> 0:13:38.840
<v Speaker 1>Clean energy, green energy, the jobs. I also I hate

0:13:38.840 --> 0:13:43.520
<v Speaker 1>when politicians say invest in. What that means is take

0:13:43.559 --> 0:13:46.960
<v Speaker 1>money from you, the taxpayer, and direct it to cronies

0:13:47.400 --> 0:13:51.200
<v Speaker 1>and pet projects and things that they just like. Because

0:13:51.400 --> 0:13:53.280
<v Speaker 1>if there's an idea out there, let me tell you,

0:13:53.320 --> 0:13:54.960
<v Speaker 1>I know a lot of people that spend a lot

0:13:55.000 --> 0:13:59.480
<v Speaker 1>of time searching for good investments, and they're actually hard

0:13:59.480 --> 0:14:02.440
<v Speaker 1>to find. You know why that is because when you

0:14:02.520 --> 0:14:04.640
<v Speaker 1>have a really obvious investment out there, would you have

0:14:04.679 --> 0:14:09.200
<v Speaker 1>an obvious investment opportunity? People take it. The reason there's

0:14:09.240 --> 0:14:12.680
<v Speaker 1>not more money flooding into green energy, and there's not

0:14:12.800 --> 0:14:19.080
<v Speaker 1>more independent, free market capitalism based funding for these green

0:14:19.160 --> 0:14:23.720
<v Speaker 1>energy projects. It's because they don't make financial sense. That's

0:14:23.760 --> 0:14:27.400
<v Speaker 1>why the reason you need all these government guarantees, things

0:14:27.400 --> 0:14:30.080
<v Speaker 1>like the Cylindra boondoggle of the Obama era. You will

0:14:30.120 --> 0:14:33.600
<v Speaker 1>call hundreds of millions of dollars of taxpayer guarantees for

0:14:33.640 --> 0:14:36.920
<v Speaker 1>those loans. The reason you need that is because the

0:14:36.960 --> 0:14:40.480
<v Speaker 1>market will not bear what the Democrats say it will

0:14:40.520 --> 0:14:43.200
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to these technologies. They are not cost

0:14:43.320 --> 0:14:46.480
<v Speaker 1>efficient enough, they are not competitive enough. When they are,

0:14:46.560 --> 0:14:49.920
<v Speaker 1>they'll be more of it. They're getting closer, but they're

0:14:49.960 --> 0:14:54.280
<v Speaker 1>not there yet. The biggest problem the Democrats have is

0:14:54.320 --> 0:14:56.000
<v Speaker 1>that they're Democrats. At the end of the day, that's

0:14:56.000 --> 0:14:58.400
<v Speaker 1>the good news for us. We much more coming up.

0:14:58.400 --> 0:15:04.040
<v Speaker 1>Teams stay right there. The President wants to see what

0:15:04.080 --> 0:15:06.520
<v Speaker 1>the final package looks like and he'll make a decision.

0:15:06.560 --> 0:15:10.440
<v Speaker 1>At that point, they're still tinkering and making edits to

0:15:10.520 --> 0:15:13.920
<v Speaker 1>that legislation, and once we see what the final piece

0:15:14.080 --> 0:15:16.600
<v Speaker 1>looks like, the President can make that decision. But you

0:15:16.600 --> 0:15:19.240
<v Speaker 1>can rest assured. The President promised he was going to

0:15:19.320 --> 0:15:21.880
<v Speaker 1>build the wall, and he's going to deliver and this

0:15:21.960 --> 0:15:24.800
<v Speaker 1>has made some progress. Nancy Pelosi said she wasn't going

0:15:24.840 --> 0:15:27.240
<v Speaker 1>to give a dollar for the wall. This has roughly

0:15:27.280 --> 0:15:30.440
<v Speaker 1>one point four billion dollars that'll go towards the wall.

0:15:31.280 --> 0:15:33.680
<v Speaker 1>The whole country knows that we need and knows that

0:15:33.720 --> 0:15:36.480
<v Speaker 1>the president is going to make happen. In total, it

0:15:36.480 --> 0:15:39.680
<v Speaker 1>gives about twenty three billion dollars in border security, which

0:15:39.760 --> 0:15:44.200
<v Speaker 1>is desperately needed. It expands ice versus abolish his ice,

0:15:44.240 --> 0:15:46.720
<v Speaker 1>like we've heard some Democrats talk about in the past.

0:15:47.040 --> 0:15:50.600
<v Speaker 1>So there are some positives in this bill. There are

0:15:50.640 --> 0:15:55.280
<v Speaker 1>some positives, but it's not great, okay, And look, Sarah

0:15:55.320 --> 0:15:57.200
<v Speaker 1>Sanders is there to speak for the White House, and

0:15:57.520 --> 0:16:00.840
<v Speaker 1>she's obviously going to look for the positive in this situation,

0:16:00.880 --> 0:16:05.880
<v Speaker 1>as she should. But it's not great or not. I'm

0:16:05.880 --> 0:16:09.440
<v Speaker 1>not here to tell you, oh, yeah, that's amazing. No,

0:16:10.120 --> 0:16:12.520
<v Speaker 1>it's less money than he would have gotten initially for

0:16:12.600 --> 0:16:16.160
<v Speaker 1>the wall, and or less money we've out in for

0:16:16.200 --> 0:16:19.560
<v Speaker 1>porter security overall. It turns out there is some new

0:16:19.640 --> 0:16:21.680
<v Speaker 1>fencing that is being built the southern border I had

0:16:21.720 --> 0:16:23.680
<v Speaker 1>to do with an earlier appropriation, I think, but it

0:16:23.720 --> 0:16:25.160
<v Speaker 1>is going to get done this year and it is

0:16:25.200 --> 0:16:27.320
<v Speaker 1>going to go up in the It is already going

0:16:27.400 --> 0:16:30.040
<v Speaker 1>up in the Rio Grand sector, but I think it's

0:16:30.120 --> 0:16:35.440
<v Speaker 1>like five miles, so that's not it helps, hey, producer, Mike.

0:16:35.480 --> 0:16:38.080
<v Speaker 1>Every little bit helps, you know what I mean, Every

0:16:38.080 --> 0:16:41.520
<v Speaker 1>little bit helps. But on the other side of this

0:16:41.560 --> 0:16:45.120
<v Speaker 1>equation you have the Democrats, who increasingly now people are

0:16:45.160 --> 0:16:48.880
<v Speaker 1>realizing two very important parts of the immigration debate. One

0:16:49.000 --> 0:16:52.080
<v Speaker 1>is that Wall's work and to say otherwise is stupid

0:16:52.120 --> 0:16:54.640
<v Speaker 1>and a lie. The other part, though, is that Democrats

0:16:54.680 --> 0:16:57.200
<v Speaker 1>are the partner of open borders. They want open borders,

0:16:57.240 --> 0:17:01.680
<v Speaker 1>they believe in this. They love of illegal aliens more

0:17:01.720 --> 0:17:03.640
<v Speaker 1>than they love Americans, based on the sound of what

0:17:03.680 --> 0:17:07.560
<v Speaker 1>they say. Blake clip two. We are fighting for the

0:17:07.640 --> 0:17:12.720
<v Speaker 1>landstanding principle and the landstanding progressive principle, like the people

0:17:12.760 --> 0:17:16.560
<v Speaker 1>who build this country. Standing in this country there where

0:17:18.560 --> 0:17:21.800
<v Speaker 1>black fighting for the people whose hands have built this

0:17:21.960 --> 0:17:25.160
<v Speaker 1>country to be honored and respecting in the United States

0:17:25.200 --> 0:17:28.720
<v Speaker 1>of America. We are here to make sure that all

0:17:28.800 --> 0:17:35.760
<v Speaker 1>the fans recipients become permanent members of United States. Yep,

0:17:37.240 --> 0:17:40.480
<v Speaker 1>that's right. Illegal aliens are the ones building America, you see,

0:17:41.359 --> 0:17:43.920
<v Speaker 1>They're the ones that are building America. We owe them

0:17:45.880 --> 0:17:49.600
<v Speaker 1>legal steps. We owe them citizenship because because they've done

0:17:49.640 --> 0:17:53.240
<v Speaker 1>so much for all of us. See, they take this

0:17:53.320 --> 0:17:55.280
<v Speaker 1>whole dynamic and they flip it around. You would think

0:17:55.280 --> 0:17:57.400
<v Speaker 1>that shouldn't people that are in the country illegally, who've

0:17:57.440 --> 0:18:00.440
<v Speaker 1>been living here in America and benefiting from our services

0:18:00.440 --> 0:18:03.040
<v Speaker 1>in this economy and the safety and security of this country,

0:18:03.160 --> 0:18:06.160
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't they be thankful? No, no, no no, no no. The left,

0:18:06.200 --> 0:18:10.960
<v Speaker 1>the Democrat view on this is that we owe them this,

0:18:12.080 --> 0:18:14.960
<v Speaker 1>that we should be thankful to them, to the illegal

0:18:15.040 --> 0:18:18.080
<v Speaker 1>alien that has been in this country, the millions and

0:18:18.119 --> 0:18:22.200
<v Speaker 1>millions of them for many years. See, it all gets

0:18:22.240 --> 0:18:26.399
<v Speaker 1>completely turned around. This is how the Democratic Party views it.

0:18:26.400 --> 0:18:30.800
<v Speaker 1>Though Okazio Cortez there, as crazy as she sounds, she

0:18:31.280 --> 0:18:34.159
<v Speaker 1>is not an outlier. She is now for Democrats in

0:18:34.200 --> 0:18:36.560
<v Speaker 1>the mainstream, which is there should be a mass amnesty

0:18:36.720 --> 0:18:39.159
<v Speaker 1>and anyone who wants to come to this country legally

0:18:39.280 --> 0:18:42.119
<v Speaker 1>otherwise should be allowed to stay as long as they

0:18:42.200 --> 0:18:46.040
<v Speaker 1>vote Democrat, which we know is very likely that they

0:18:46.040 --> 0:18:59.480
<v Speaker 1>are going to. He's holding the line for America. Buck

0:18:59.520 --> 0:19:03.800
<v Speaker 1>sexty is back. We simply cannot allow people to pour

0:19:04.000 --> 0:19:09.919
<v Speaker 1>into the United States, undetected, undocumented unchecked and illegal aliens

0:19:09.920 --> 0:19:12.480
<v Speaker 1>should not be treated the same as people who entered

0:19:12.480 --> 0:19:16.760
<v Speaker 1>the US legally. We must control our borders, must protect

0:19:16.800 --> 0:19:25.600
<v Speaker 1>our borders. We know that dolls do not save lives, willskins, lives.

0:19:25.880 --> 0:19:30.119
<v Speaker 1>There is no bargain in which we can sacrifice some

0:19:30.280 --> 0:19:36.040
<v Speaker 1>of our humanity to gain a little more security. It's

0:19:36.080 --> 0:19:39.320
<v Speaker 1>just like I just forgot it, like really emotional. And

0:19:40.240 --> 0:19:43.280
<v Speaker 1>to the thirty people who are at my rally, like

0:19:43.520 --> 0:19:46.359
<v Speaker 1>all of you, I just want you to watch my

0:19:46.440 --> 0:19:49.800
<v Speaker 1>Instagram live stream that I'm gonna do later of like

0:19:50.119 --> 0:19:55.440
<v Speaker 1>me making avocado toasts because I'm like really hip millennials

0:19:55.480 --> 0:19:59.320
<v Speaker 1>like me. My name is Beto. Notice how we started

0:19:59.359 --> 0:20:01.199
<v Speaker 1>out there with a bunch of Democrats saying stuff that

0:20:01.280 --> 0:20:07.400
<v Speaker 1>today would be considered super racist, producer Mike super racist.

0:20:08.119 --> 0:20:10.000
<v Speaker 1>Can't treat illegal aliens the way they treat the rest

0:20:10.000 --> 0:20:12.439
<v Speaker 1>of people because we have laws about that stuff. That's terrible,

0:20:12.880 --> 0:20:16.200
<v Speaker 1>mean thing. Chuck Schumer, Chuck Schumer should have to apologize

0:20:16.240 --> 0:20:19.080
<v Speaker 1>for all of this. Of course he won't because it

0:20:19.119 --> 0:20:22.080
<v Speaker 1>wasn't It's actually not racist, right, Democrats knew that then.

0:20:22.119 --> 0:20:25.760
<v Speaker 1>But what has changed since then? What's changed is that

0:20:26.200 --> 0:20:28.960
<v Speaker 1>we've learned more about the immigration issue, because we now

0:20:29.040 --> 0:20:32.880
<v Speaker 1>have an administration that speaks about it without all of

0:20:32.920 --> 0:20:36.840
<v Speaker 1>the propaganda and the talking points just stacked on top

0:20:36.880 --> 0:20:39.240
<v Speaker 1>of itself so that you can't get to any truth.

0:20:39.320 --> 0:20:41.240
<v Speaker 1>You can't get to any honest in the discussion. It's

0:20:41.240 --> 0:20:47.960
<v Speaker 1>all just America is a nation of immigrants. Walls don't work. Immigrants,

0:20:48.160 --> 0:20:51.639
<v Speaker 1>illegal or otherwise are better than Americans, Like, can we

0:20:51.720 --> 0:20:57.560
<v Speaker 1>stop with that? This has been conventional wisdom from the

0:20:57.640 --> 0:21:02.000
<v Speaker 1>left and from the mainstream media for a very long time,

0:21:02.320 --> 0:21:05.200
<v Speaker 1>and now it is finally starting to crumble out. I

0:21:05.240 --> 0:21:07.080
<v Speaker 1>think there's a bit of panic in the media because

0:21:08.119 --> 0:21:12.040
<v Speaker 1>they will eventually have to reckon with the fact that

0:21:12.080 --> 0:21:15.679
<v Speaker 1>the American people do not want continued waves of illegal

0:21:16.359 --> 0:21:18.560
<v Speaker 1>aliens coming into the country, which is why they're going

0:21:18.640 --> 0:21:21.320
<v Speaker 1>to push very hard as soon as possible for a

0:21:21.359 --> 0:21:25.400
<v Speaker 1>mass amnesty. Now. They want a mass amnesty now. They

0:21:25.440 --> 0:21:28.800
<v Speaker 1>want this to be an issue that doesn't have to

0:21:28.800 --> 0:21:32.280
<v Speaker 1>be dealt with really anymore, because it is finished. As

0:21:32.280 --> 0:21:35.360
<v Speaker 1>I've told you many times, once you give permanent status,

0:21:35.880 --> 0:21:38.520
<v Speaker 1>once somebody has a green card or citizenship or whatever

0:21:38.560 --> 0:21:41.919
<v Speaker 1>it is that had been an illegal alien, you're never

0:21:42.320 --> 0:21:44.000
<v Speaker 1>going to be able to turn that around. You're never

0:21:44.040 --> 0:21:47.879
<v Speaker 1>going to be able to make that make that not

0:21:48.000 --> 0:21:52.840
<v Speaker 1>the case. So I do think that there's a point

0:21:52.840 --> 0:21:57.400
<v Speaker 1>in time here where we're either going to cross crossover

0:21:57.720 --> 0:21:59.960
<v Speaker 1>and become a country that all of a sudden take

0:22:00.119 --> 0:22:04.359
<v Speaker 1>sovereignty seriously, a country that believes that it has a

0:22:04.520 --> 0:22:08.639
<v Speaker 1>right to enforce its borders and its immigration laws, or

0:22:08.640 --> 0:22:12.440
<v Speaker 1>else where we are going to just slowly but surely

0:22:12.640 --> 0:22:15.800
<v Speaker 1>have borders that are effectively non existent. They will dissolve,

0:22:16.160 --> 0:22:19.760
<v Speaker 1>they'll become checkpoints, but not borders, meaning you have to

0:22:19.840 --> 0:22:21.439
<v Speaker 1>stop and check in. You have to say, hey, I

0:22:21.480 --> 0:22:24.359
<v Speaker 1>want to come to America. But that's all that it takes.

0:22:25.280 --> 0:22:27.119
<v Speaker 1>I mean, just think of it this way. I still

0:22:27.119 --> 0:22:29.640
<v Speaker 1>have people that will go on TV. I see people

0:22:29.680 --> 0:22:32.159
<v Speaker 1>going on TV and those say it's not illegal to

0:22:32.160 --> 0:22:39.640
<v Speaker 1>claim asylum. This is a really disingenuous talking point, because yes,

0:22:39.720 --> 0:22:42.320
<v Speaker 1>of course it's not illegal to claim asylum. The problem

0:22:42.359 --> 0:22:47.120
<v Speaker 1>is that people are breaking laws in the asylum process. Right.

0:22:47.560 --> 0:22:49.640
<v Speaker 1>Let's say that you had people that were walking into

0:22:49.680 --> 0:22:53.120
<v Speaker 1>a bank and they were when the teller wasn't looking,

0:22:53.160 --> 0:22:57.159
<v Speaker 1>stealing money out of the teller tray, which obviously this

0:22:57.160 --> 0:22:59.080
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't be a very secure bank. But just stay with

0:22:59.119 --> 0:23:01.439
<v Speaker 1>me for this. If you had people that kept going

0:23:01.480 --> 0:23:03.920
<v Speaker 1>on TV saying it's not illegal to walk into a bank,

0:23:04.480 --> 0:23:07.439
<v Speaker 1>you'd say, well, yeah, but that's not the point. The

0:23:07.520 --> 0:23:09.840
<v Speaker 1>point is what happens when they're in the bank. In

0:23:09.880 --> 0:23:13.760
<v Speaker 1>our asylum process, Yeah, it's not illegal to claim asylum.

0:23:13.800 --> 0:23:16.840
<v Speaker 1>It's illegal to lie to try to get asylum, and

0:23:16.880 --> 0:23:19.240
<v Speaker 1>then it's illegal to not show up for your hearing

0:23:19.280 --> 0:23:22.840
<v Speaker 1>where you find out whether or not you qualify for asylum.

0:23:23.680 --> 0:23:26.160
<v Speaker 1>So what they do is that they just repeat these

0:23:26.200 --> 0:23:28.119
<v Speaker 1>things that make it sound like there's no problem, but

0:23:28.240 --> 0:23:31.040
<v Speaker 1>of course there's a problem, and the reason they don't

0:23:31.040 --> 0:23:32.560
<v Speaker 1>want to deal with it is it's really it's a

0:23:32.560 --> 0:23:35.800
<v Speaker 1>combination of they have been told. I mean, the reason

0:23:35.840 --> 0:23:38.879
<v Speaker 1>the Democrat Party has moved so far left on immigration

0:23:39.720 --> 0:23:42.239
<v Speaker 1>is yes, it is first and foremost about power, and

0:23:42.280 --> 0:23:44.560
<v Speaker 1>they understand that this is votes for their party and

0:23:44.600 --> 0:23:48.119
<v Speaker 1>this is going to create a one party supermajority in

0:23:48.119 --> 0:23:51.160
<v Speaker 1>this country for the rest of our lifetimes and probably

0:23:51.200 --> 0:23:54.440
<v Speaker 1>our children and children's lifetimes. If they manage to get

0:23:54.480 --> 0:23:57.240
<v Speaker 1>a mass amnesty for twenty million people, think about what

0:23:57.280 --> 0:23:59.399
<v Speaker 1>that does the electorate. If you have twenty million people

0:23:59.440 --> 0:24:04.440
<v Speaker 1>who demographically vote seventy percent or higher for the Democratic Party,

0:24:04.960 --> 0:24:08.400
<v Speaker 1>say goodbye to ever having another Republican president in your lifetime.

0:24:08.560 --> 0:24:12.280
<v Speaker 1>That's what we're talking about. That is what's really at stake,

0:24:12.280 --> 0:24:16.240
<v Speaker 1>which is also why state and federal agencies don't want

0:24:16.240 --> 0:24:18.800
<v Speaker 1>to tell us what the number of illegal aliens are.

0:24:19.720 --> 0:24:22.720
<v Speaker 1>I mean, shouldn't it bother more people that we are

0:24:22.800 --> 0:24:25.479
<v Speaker 1>told that it is. I think now they'll say twelve

0:24:25.520 --> 0:24:27.680
<v Speaker 1>million because it's gotten a little too hard to cling

0:24:27.720 --> 0:24:30.000
<v Speaker 1>to that eleven million. Shouldn't it bother more people that

0:24:30.040 --> 0:24:34.480
<v Speaker 1>the federal government has not only no idea, but has

0:24:34.760 --> 0:24:38.240
<v Speaker 1>clearly an interest in lying about how many illegal aliens

0:24:38.280 --> 0:24:42.400
<v Speaker 1>in the country. No serious. We have the Obama administration's

0:24:42.480 --> 0:24:45.320
<v Speaker 1>head of border patrol joining us in just a few minutes.

0:24:45.400 --> 0:24:48.760
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna, I think, find his conversation with me fascinating.

0:24:48.800 --> 0:24:52.440
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I've talked to him this morning on the Hill,

0:24:53.000 --> 0:24:55.200
<v Speaker 1>and I wanted him come on tonight so you could

0:24:55.280 --> 0:24:58.600
<v Speaker 1>hear from him. Because there's what the people that have

0:24:58.680 --> 0:25:02.840
<v Speaker 1>expertise say about this issue, and then there's what the blathering, chattering,

0:25:03.480 --> 0:25:07.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, claptrap class of the pundits and the media

0:25:07.880 --> 0:25:09.679
<v Speaker 1>and the rest of its say about this, and they

0:25:09.680 --> 0:25:12.720
<v Speaker 1>are not the same thing. They are not the same thing.

0:25:14.119 --> 0:25:16.399
<v Speaker 1>But you know, if we're going to fix this, we

0:25:16.480 --> 0:25:18.640
<v Speaker 1>have to at least start from the premise of, you know, how,

0:25:19.040 --> 0:25:22.120
<v Speaker 1>how are we how big is the problem? And they

0:25:22.200 --> 0:25:24.560
<v Speaker 1>don't want to assess how big the problem is because

0:25:24.560 --> 0:25:28.120
<v Speaker 1>I think they know that there would be outrage one

0:25:28.200 --> 0:25:30.560
<v Speaker 1>about the fact that we've been lied to and the

0:25:30.560 --> 0:25:32.560
<v Speaker 1>government has been so wrong for so long about this,

0:25:32.600 --> 0:25:36.359
<v Speaker 1>that the media has no curiosity about this whatsoever, And

0:25:36.480 --> 0:25:40.639
<v Speaker 1>that a bunch of math whizzes at Yale looked at

0:25:40.640 --> 0:25:43.359
<v Speaker 1>all the available data numbers and came back and said,

0:25:43.680 --> 0:25:48.520
<v Speaker 1>you know what, it's twenty million just based on based

0:25:48.520 --> 0:25:51.560
<v Speaker 1>on the data that we already have, it's got to

0:25:51.600 --> 0:25:54.640
<v Speaker 1>be at least twenty million. And if you think about

0:25:54.680 --> 0:25:58.240
<v Speaker 1>this too, it's it was fifty thousand last month. None

0:25:58.240 --> 0:26:00.400
<v Speaker 1>of them are going back to Honduras. None, I'm going

0:26:00.480 --> 0:26:04.119
<v Speaker 1>back to Mexico or else Salvador or Nicaragua. It's fifty

0:26:04.119 --> 0:26:06.439
<v Speaker 1>thousand a month, twelve months in a year, half a

0:26:06.440 --> 0:26:10.040
<v Speaker 1>million people a year, and that's been for the last

0:26:10.080 --> 0:26:13.600
<v Speaker 1>few years. You're gonna tell me that the number is just, oh,

0:26:13.640 --> 0:26:16.320
<v Speaker 1>it's eleven millie. I mean this, you know. I don't

0:26:16.320 --> 0:26:20.760
<v Speaker 1>mean to harp on this, to plow the same field

0:26:20.760 --> 0:26:22.639
<v Speaker 1>too many times on the issue of the number, but

0:26:22.720 --> 0:26:26.600
<v Speaker 1>it's just indicative of how this whole conversation needs to change.

0:26:26.600 --> 0:26:28.960
<v Speaker 1>I think Trump is trying to change it. There's so

0:26:29.040 --> 0:26:32.320
<v Speaker 1>much dishonest you wrapped into this. There's so much unwillingness

0:26:32.320 --> 0:26:35.120
<v Speaker 1>to confront the truth. And a lot of it comes

0:26:35.119 --> 0:26:38.159
<v Speaker 1>from Republicans too. A lot of it comes from the

0:26:38.960 --> 0:26:42.919
<v Speaker 1>GOP establishment that is completely in the pocket of the

0:26:42.960 --> 0:26:44.680
<v Speaker 1>donor class. That is a real thing. A lot of

0:26:44.720 --> 0:26:47.000
<v Speaker 1>Democrats will criticize that it is true. There are a

0:26:47.000 --> 0:26:48.879
<v Speaker 1>lot of GOOP reps out there. There's a lot of

0:26:48.880 --> 0:26:52.360
<v Speaker 1>Republican politicians who are sellouts to the ideals of their

0:26:52.400 --> 0:26:55.040
<v Speaker 1>party and sellouts even to what they say they stand for.

0:26:55.560 --> 0:26:58.119
<v Speaker 1>I aim to stand for small government, claim to care about,

0:26:58.600 --> 0:27:00.879
<v Speaker 1>you know, people in the working class and those with

0:27:00.960 --> 0:27:03.960
<v Speaker 1>small businesses who are affected by this issue of a

0:27:04.000 --> 0:27:08.160
<v Speaker 1>legal immigration and among many other issues. So we will

0:27:08.200 --> 0:27:12.240
<v Speaker 1>see if this is going to be the moment the

0:27:12.240 --> 0:27:18.440
<v Speaker 1>Trump administration finally gets a win on this. I think

0:27:18.480 --> 0:27:22.000
<v Speaker 1>we've been it's been a little paltry. I'm disappointed in

0:27:22.040 --> 0:27:24.959
<v Speaker 1>what we've had so far. I like the fight, but

0:27:25.080 --> 0:27:27.159
<v Speaker 1>I need to see an administration that is going to

0:27:27.240 --> 0:27:29.360
<v Speaker 1>use the power that it has and make a declaration

0:27:29.520 --> 0:27:32.960
<v Speaker 1>make a declaration right up front, right now of not

0:27:33.040 --> 0:27:35.239
<v Speaker 1>just a declaration of emergency. That's one way to go,

0:27:35.320 --> 0:27:37.879
<v Speaker 1>but the president should just say these are the sectors

0:27:37.880 --> 0:27:39.760
<v Speaker 1>where we've been told by the experts the wall should

0:27:39.760 --> 0:27:41.880
<v Speaker 1>be built. I have statutory authority to do it. I'm

0:27:41.880 --> 0:27:44.320
<v Speaker 1>just gonna start doing it. I'm just gonna start building

0:27:44.320 --> 0:27:47.040
<v Speaker 1>the wall. Let the courts try to shut him down.

0:27:47.240 --> 0:27:51.040
<v Speaker 1>Let's have the American people see how lawfare is the

0:27:51.119 --> 0:27:54.640
<v Speaker 1>response of the Democratic party to democratic elections that don't

0:27:54.640 --> 0:27:57.440
<v Speaker 1>go their way. I got to talk about Ilhan Omar

0:27:57.520 --> 0:28:01.040
<v Speaker 1>coming up. Then we have Obama's border patrol chief joining

0:28:01.119 --> 0:28:02.639
<v Speaker 1>us in a little bit. You'll want to hear that.

0:28:02.760 --> 0:28:06.280
<v Speaker 1>Stick around now to the President, he's calling for Omar

0:28:06.359 --> 0:28:09.639
<v Speaker 1>to get out, and that is interesting because he seemed

0:28:09.680 --> 0:28:13.280
<v Speaker 1>to say something very similar to what Omar said when

0:28:13.280 --> 0:28:17.560
<v Speaker 1>addressing the Republican Jewish Coalition in twenty fifteen. You're not

0:28:17.560 --> 0:28:19.480
<v Speaker 1>going to support me because I don't want your money.

0:28:19.640 --> 0:28:22.480
<v Speaker 1>You want to control your own politician. That's fine. Now

0:28:22.600 --> 0:28:25.159
<v Speaker 1>why is it difference? Is it because Omar's Muslim? And

0:28:25.240 --> 0:28:29.680
<v Speaker 1>where's it his job? Representative Omar's tweets for a disgrace.

0:28:31.160 --> 0:28:34.200
<v Speaker 1>Anti Semitism has no place in the United States Congress

0:28:35.200 --> 0:28:38.640
<v Speaker 1>or anywhere in our country or the free world. Unless

0:28:38.640 --> 0:28:43.640
<v Speaker 1>Representative Omar resigns from Congress a minimum, Democrat leaders should

0:28:43.640 --> 0:28:47.280
<v Speaker 1>remove her from the House Foreign Affairs Committee. Isn't that

0:28:47.400 --> 0:28:52.160
<v Speaker 1>just a classic a classic moment there from pro Quoma.

0:28:52.200 --> 0:28:56.600
<v Speaker 1>Way is the same? Different or the same? You've got

0:28:56.680 --> 0:29:01.920
<v Speaker 1>Cuomo over at CNN who is trying to say, oh

0:29:02.040 --> 0:29:04.520
<v Speaker 1>is it what is Yeah? Trump is an anti Semite?

0:29:04.600 --> 0:29:06.280
<v Speaker 1>Is that really he's really gonna go with that one?

0:29:06.560 --> 0:29:11.040
<v Speaker 1>Or Trump said the same thing. Everybody understands that there

0:29:11.040 --> 0:29:15.720
<v Speaker 1>are different interest groups, and there are different public policy

0:29:15.760 --> 0:29:19.280
<v Speaker 1>foundations and packs and think tanks, and that there's money

0:29:19.280 --> 0:29:22.520
<v Speaker 1>involved in these things. They're pushing different ideas. But when

0:29:22.560 --> 0:29:25.920
<v Speaker 1>you are a person who has already been saying things

0:29:26.880 --> 0:29:30.200
<v Speaker 1>about how you think that Israel has hypnotized the world

0:29:30.200 --> 0:29:33.320
<v Speaker 1>as Omar has, and then you say it's all about

0:29:33.360 --> 0:29:37.000
<v Speaker 1>the Benjamin's and you know there's a context. I think

0:29:37.000 --> 0:29:39.880
<v Speaker 1>it's so fascinating. Liberals are the ones who believe that people,

0:29:39.920 --> 0:29:43.520
<v Speaker 1>based on who they are, can't even say certain words,

0:29:43.680 --> 0:29:47.600
<v Speaker 1>not allowed to say certain words. Liberals are the ones

0:29:47.680 --> 0:29:51.080
<v Speaker 1>who believe that every time a person makes any comment,

0:29:51.160 --> 0:29:55.240
<v Speaker 1>who they are ethnically religiously has to be taken into account.

0:29:56.040 --> 0:29:59.560
<v Speaker 1>And the ones who get to judge all of this are,

0:29:59.560 --> 0:30:01.840
<v Speaker 1>of course liberals right the left. They get to determine

0:30:01.880 --> 0:30:04.320
<v Speaker 1>are you allowed to oh, are you allowed to say that? No?

0:30:04.880 --> 0:30:06.760
<v Speaker 1>As buck a buck is a white male, what is

0:30:06.760 --> 0:30:10.280
<v Speaker 1>he allowed to say? Basically nothing except sorry, sorry for

0:30:10.440 --> 0:30:13.680
<v Speaker 1>my privilege. Sorry, that's all I'm really allowed to say.

0:30:15.200 --> 0:30:21.400
<v Speaker 1>But ilhan omar, somebody who comes from the Muslim world

0:30:21.480 --> 0:30:25.840
<v Speaker 1>is a Muslim. Based on the liberal approach to these things,

0:30:26.280 --> 0:30:28.760
<v Speaker 1>when you have somebody who is a Muslim who is

0:30:28.800 --> 0:30:32.080
<v Speaker 1>particularly anti Israel and talks about the money that the

0:30:32.200 --> 0:30:35.640
<v Speaker 1>Jews have that hypnotizes the world, these comments that they

0:30:35.640 --> 0:30:39.560
<v Speaker 1>make one after another, you would say this person has

0:30:39.600 --> 0:30:45.760
<v Speaker 1>a history of and a mindset of anti Semitism. That

0:30:45.840 --> 0:30:48.360
<v Speaker 1>it's it's not as simple as just well, anyone who

0:30:48.400 --> 0:30:50.920
<v Speaker 1>says that any groups use money in politics, everyone's being

0:30:50.920 --> 0:30:54.320
<v Speaker 1>anti Semitic right now, but they erase all contexts rectly.

0:30:54.360 --> 0:30:56.520
<v Speaker 1>To talk to Michael Malice later on about this, because

0:30:56.600 --> 0:30:59.840
<v Speaker 1>this is a very important point that when when liberalsy

0:30:59.880 --> 0:31:03.920
<v Speaker 1>and opening they go, they become hyper literalist. You know,

0:31:04.280 --> 0:31:07.320
<v Speaker 1>every word means exactly what the word means. It doesn't matter.

0:31:07.480 --> 0:31:10.400
<v Speaker 1>There's no jokes or there's no subtlety, there's no nuance,

0:31:10.440 --> 0:31:13.440
<v Speaker 1>there's no context. If that means that they can bash

0:31:13.520 --> 0:31:16.560
<v Speaker 1>the other side, that's what they do, and on their side,

0:31:17.040 --> 0:31:19.760
<v Speaker 1>the words don't even mean what the words say. On

0:31:19.840 --> 0:31:23.760
<v Speaker 1>their side, how Casio Cortez's office didn't put out some

0:31:23.880 --> 0:31:26.840
<v Speaker 1>insanity about cow farts and no airplane travel and the

0:31:26.960 --> 0:31:31.719
<v Speaker 1>Green New Deal. Frequently asked questions, oh no, wait she did.

0:31:32.880 --> 0:31:35.760
<v Speaker 1>They did what we can try to find all these

0:31:35.760 --> 0:31:38.840
<v Speaker 1>ways to well, but it was but no, no, they did,

0:31:39.800 --> 0:31:42.959
<v Speaker 1>and they should have to deal with the consequences of

0:31:43.000 --> 0:31:45.640
<v Speaker 1>that decision making and showing us what they really believe,

0:31:45.680 --> 0:31:47.560
<v Speaker 1>and really just how ignorant they are. It's not even

0:31:47.600 --> 0:31:49.800
<v Speaker 1>about how radical they are, it's how stupid they are.

0:31:50.080 --> 0:31:53.520
<v Speaker 1>That's the problem that Green New Deal. Remember that people saying, oh,

0:31:53.560 --> 0:31:56.480
<v Speaker 1>it's because they're so because radical people say it almost

0:31:56.520 --> 0:31:59.400
<v Speaker 1>sounds like it's revolutionary, like they're being brave. No, they're

0:31:59.440 --> 0:32:03.160
<v Speaker 1>being idiots, are being idiots. Producer Mike, did you know

0:32:03.200 --> 0:32:07.560
<v Speaker 1>that Corey Booker among Yeah, that's right, Spartacus. Among all

0:32:07.600 --> 0:32:11.600
<v Speaker 1>of his flaws, you know, he's a vegan. Yeah, that's

0:32:11.600 --> 0:32:14.640
<v Speaker 1>the biggest offensive all I was gonna say. I mean America.

0:32:14.680 --> 0:32:17.840
<v Speaker 1>You know, America is a very very diverse, very welcoming

0:32:17.840 --> 0:32:21.040
<v Speaker 1>place for all kinds of folks. But this country is

0:32:21.080 --> 0:32:24.400
<v Speaker 1>not ready for a vegan president. No way. Could you

0:32:24.440 --> 0:32:28.040
<v Speaker 1>imagine in that debate with Trump and Booker over meat,

0:32:28.560 --> 0:32:30.440
<v Speaker 1>like Trump will come out on the stage with like

0:32:30.680 --> 0:32:34.440
<v Speaker 1>five thousand big Max. And also, I mean, nobody likes

0:32:34.480 --> 0:32:36.680
<v Speaker 1>that guy or gal. That's like, do you realize that

0:32:36.680 --> 0:32:39.120
<v Speaker 1>you're wearing the skin of animals on your feet? Do

0:32:39.160 --> 0:32:42.640
<v Speaker 1>you realize that it's only because of honey beef servitude

0:32:42.640 --> 0:32:44.640
<v Speaker 1>that you can put that honey in your tea? It's like,

0:32:45.280 --> 0:32:48.720
<v Speaker 1>no one likes that person. That cows are Cows are

0:32:48.760 --> 0:32:52.360
<v Speaker 1>being you know, shackled, and their utters are overflowing. I'm like, yeah,

0:32:52.360 --> 0:32:55.920
<v Speaker 1>milk is delicious. Like well, it's I didn't know. I

0:32:55.960 --> 0:32:57.960
<v Speaker 1>didn't know till they that that Booker is a vegan,

0:32:58.120 --> 0:33:00.840
<v Speaker 1>and he's saying that our meat consumption is unsustainable by

0:33:00.840 --> 0:33:04.280
<v Speaker 1>the way he's done, no way. There's a lot of

0:33:04.320 --> 0:33:07.600
<v Speaker 1>things Americans can't agree on right now, but a solid

0:33:07.640 --> 0:33:11.600
<v Speaker 1>majority of us still loves meat. Thank heavens for that.

0:33:11.760 --> 0:33:14.960
<v Speaker 1>This campaign is unsustainable. His campaign is unsustainable. It's not

0:33:15.000 --> 0:33:17.200
<v Speaker 1>it's not going anywhere. I think it's uh. I think

0:33:17.200 --> 0:33:21.760
<v Speaker 1>it's bad, bad shape. But oh wait, Representative Omar though,

0:33:21.960 --> 0:33:23.840
<v Speaker 1>back to this, back to this whole issue is getting

0:33:23.840 --> 0:33:27.480
<v Speaker 1>a lot of attention this week. She is surprised by

0:33:27.520 --> 0:33:30.440
<v Speaker 1>all this she says, which I think is interesting. I've

0:33:30.480 --> 0:33:33.720
<v Speaker 1>stated all of it in my statement apologize today, But

0:33:33.840 --> 0:33:36.840
<v Speaker 1>what have you learned from her comments and the reaction

0:33:36.960 --> 0:33:39.880
<v Speaker 1>from it. I've stated all of it in my statement.

0:33:42.880 --> 0:33:45.480
<v Speaker 1>Be sure that was stated in my statement. Pretty surprised

0:33:45.520 --> 0:33:54.840
<v Speaker 1>by criticism always, are you worried about losing committee assignment? Look,

0:33:54.960 --> 0:33:57.520
<v Speaker 1>she's going with the real defensive pr strategy there, it's

0:33:57.520 --> 0:33:59.400
<v Speaker 1>in my statement. It's in my statement. This is somebody

0:33:59.440 --> 0:34:03.400
<v Speaker 1>who likes to wax philosophical on a whole range of topics.

0:34:03.440 --> 0:34:05.640
<v Speaker 1>But I think she decided that it was time to

0:34:07.240 --> 0:34:09.160
<v Speaker 1>trying to batten down the hatches A little bit. It

0:34:09.200 --> 0:34:14.560
<v Speaker 1>was not it was not going well here. Um, look,

0:34:14.680 --> 0:34:17.200
<v Speaker 1>we all know that ilhan Omar we we we see that.

0:34:17.320 --> 0:34:19.480
<v Speaker 1>Do we have that exchange that she had with with

0:34:19.600 --> 0:34:23.640
<v Speaker 1>Elliott Elliot Abrams that happened, that was interesting, that happened

0:34:23.680 --> 0:34:26.960
<v Speaker 1>today too. And we all know that she's she's very

0:34:27.040 --> 0:34:30.279
<v Speaker 1>left wing and her politics have very left wing, and

0:34:30.400 --> 0:34:33.000
<v Speaker 1>she is a Muslim and is very concerned with the

0:34:33.000 --> 0:34:34.960
<v Speaker 1>state of Israel. And you know, a lot of this

0:34:35.040 --> 0:34:38.359
<v Speaker 1>stuff lines up. We we know enough about people to know,

0:34:39.000 --> 0:34:40.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, the same way that if you are somebody

0:34:40.920 --> 0:34:43.440
<v Speaker 1>who goes to church on Sunday, believes in the right

0:34:43.480 --> 0:34:46.400
<v Speaker 1>to bear arms, believes in in being pro life, you

0:34:46.440 --> 0:34:49.680
<v Speaker 1>know you're going to have other other ideas well, likely

0:34:49.880 --> 0:34:54.160
<v Speaker 1>attached to that. Somebody who hates Israel thinks that APAC

0:34:54.239 --> 0:34:57.640
<v Speaker 1>controls US foreign policy with its money. Uh, and it

0:34:57.640 --> 0:35:02.200
<v Speaker 1>thinks that America was doing terrible things. And you know, well,

0:35:02.320 --> 0:35:05.080
<v Speaker 1>rather the outcome in Al Salvador is a terrible thing,

0:35:05.440 --> 0:35:09.040
<v Speaker 1>and America's in Central America. All the stuff we've done

0:35:09.120 --> 0:35:11.839
<v Speaker 1>is bad. You know, this is left This is left

0:35:11.840 --> 0:35:13.840
<v Speaker 1>wing stuff. So it's not really surprising that you have

0:35:13.880 --> 0:35:17.600
<v Speaker 1>ilhan Omar saying any of this. What is interesting though,

0:35:17.640 --> 0:35:21.000
<v Speaker 1>is the Left they're gonna always try to create a

0:35:21.000 --> 0:35:24.920
<v Speaker 1>different standard for her. She's a minority's female, she's Muslim,

0:35:25.000 --> 0:35:28.879
<v Speaker 1>so that that ticks off three boxes for them, so

0:35:28.920 --> 0:35:31.239
<v Speaker 1>they'll always be more protective of her, give her more

0:35:31.320 --> 0:35:33.759
<v Speaker 1>leeway than they will, say, you know, a white male.

0:35:35.040 --> 0:35:38.040
<v Speaker 1>But she can't even stay within the boundaries of that

0:35:39.160 --> 0:35:44.879
<v Speaker 1>artificial intersectionality based protection. She still manages to go too far.

0:35:45.120 --> 0:35:47.200
<v Speaker 1>And look, she's been condemned by both parties. It's not

0:35:47.200 --> 0:35:49.440
<v Speaker 1>really much here, but you know, this is what happens

0:35:49.440 --> 0:35:53.359
<v Speaker 1>when you have the Democratic Party embracing identity politics so much.

0:35:53.680 --> 0:35:56.439
<v Speaker 1>They just have different standards for different people based on

0:35:56.880 --> 0:35:59.200
<v Speaker 1>where they're from and how they look. Is how Democrats

0:35:59.200 --> 0:36:02.440
<v Speaker 1>do things, which it wasn't the case, but this is

0:36:02.680 --> 0:36:04.680
<v Speaker 1>this is who the Democratic Party has become. We have

0:36:04.800 --> 0:36:06.640
<v Speaker 1>much more common team. I'll be right back, all right.

0:36:06.680 --> 0:36:09.760
<v Speaker 1>So you're ready to bring on somebody new to your business.

0:36:09.760 --> 0:36:12.560
<v Speaker 1>You're all excited, the resume looks good, everything's ready to go. Right.

0:36:12.719 --> 0:36:15.359
<v Speaker 1>Before you can give that person their keycard and give

0:36:15.360 --> 0:36:17.840
<v Speaker 1>them their credentials and make them a part of your business,

0:36:18.000 --> 0:36:21.279
<v Speaker 1>you got to have background checks done. Whatever business you're in,

0:36:21.400 --> 0:36:24.959
<v Speaker 1>large or small, background checks are essential, and that's why

0:36:25.160 --> 0:36:27.080
<v Speaker 1>I tell you to go to the people I trust.

0:36:27.360 --> 0:36:31.399
<v Speaker 1>Global Verification Network. Blobal Verification Network is the only dual

0:36:31.480 --> 0:36:35.359
<v Speaker 1>certified veteran owned background investigation and vetting company. They got

0:36:35.400 --> 0:36:38.439
<v Speaker 1>headquarters in Chicago, but their risk mitigation experts can handle

0:36:38.480 --> 0:36:41.840
<v Speaker 1>cases all across the country. So if you have a

0:36:41.920 --> 0:36:44.440
<v Speaker 1>need for background checks, or if you already have somebody

0:36:44.440 --> 0:36:46.120
<v Speaker 1>doing them, but you don't think it's really working out

0:36:46.120 --> 0:36:48.640
<v Speaker 1>for you, you really should check out my friends at

0:36:48.680 --> 0:36:51.080
<v Speaker 1>Global Verification Network. Just give them a call, tell them

0:36:51.120 --> 0:36:53.120
<v Speaker 1>what you need, and let them walk you through what

0:36:53.160 --> 0:36:56.080
<v Speaker 1>they can do for you. Eight seven seven six nine

0:36:56.120 --> 0:36:58.600
<v Speaker 1>five one one seven nine. That's eight seven seven six

0:36:58.719 --> 0:37:04.040
<v Speaker 1>nine five A nine, Or go to my GVN dot com.

0:37:04.280 --> 0:37:07.279
<v Speaker 1>The numbers are almost twenty three billion dollars, which you

0:37:07.360 --> 0:37:10.640
<v Speaker 1>will report too often. It's about an eight percent increase

0:37:10.680 --> 0:37:13.200
<v Speaker 1>over last year. So if you look at the total

0:37:13.280 --> 0:37:17.440
<v Speaker 1>funding it's over, it's almost up to twenty three billion dollars.

0:37:17.480 --> 0:37:23.360
<v Speaker 1>It's about eight percent higher. The border area is happening,

0:37:23.560 --> 0:37:26.640
<v Speaker 1>it's going to happen at a really rapid pace. We're

0:37:26.640 --> 0:37:29.600
<v Speaker 1>giving out contracts right now, and we're going to have

0:37:29.600 --> 0:37:32.480
<v Speaker 1>a great wall. It's going to be a great, powerful wall.

0:37:32.800 --> 0:37:34.960
<v Speaker 1>People will not be able to get through that wall

0:37:35.080 --> 0:37:38.600
<v Speaker 1>very easily. And I think you see that. I think

0:37:38.600 --> 0:37:41.839
<v Speaker 1>you see it happening. It's very important. It'll also have technology,

0:37:41.880 --> 0:37:44.960
<v Speaker 1>it'll have drones, it'll have everything else we have. If

0:37:45.000 --> 0:37:49.320
<v Speaker 1>you look at the other elements, ICE funding will be complete.

0:37:49.360 --> 0:37:51.719
<v Speaker 1>We have other things happening which people aren't talking about,

0:37:51.760 --> 0:37:53.239
<v Speaker 1>but we've got a lot of funds for a lot

0:37:53.320 --> 0:37:57.680
<v Speaker 1>of other things. There your President Trump updating all of

0:37:57.800 --> 0:38:02.440
<v Speaker 1>us on where the border wall funding fight currently stands.

0:38:02.600 --> 0:38:04.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to bring in a voice that I think

0:38:04.239 --> 0:38:07.600
<v Speaker 1>you all need to hear from. This is Mark Morgan.

0:38:07.840 --> 0:38:13.360
<v Speaker 1>He is the former Border Patrol Chief of the Obama administration. Okay,

0:38:13.360 --> 0:38:14.960
<v Speaker 1>so let's just keep in mind this is somebody who

0:38:15.040 --> 0:38:18.279
<v Speaker 1>served under the Obama administration as Border Patrol chief. March one,

0:38:18.520 --> 0:38:21.000
<v Speaker 1>thanks so much for calling in. Thanks Buck, you bet

0:38:21.360 --> 0:38:23.600
<v Speaker 1>all right. Let's start with some of the basics, and

0:38:23.640 --> 0:38:25.480
<v Speaker 1>I want to drill down to the specifics about the

0:38:25.840 --> 0:38:28.480
<v Speaker 1>situation at our southern border, the fence, the wall. But

0:38:28.640 --> 0:38:32.040
<v Speaker 1>stay staying right in the center of your wheelhouse. Here,

0:38:32.719 --> 0:38:35.840
<v Speaker 1>people say the wall doesn't work or fences don't work.

0:38:35.920 --> 0:38:39.359
<v Speaker 1>And U, as somebody who knows the issue inside and out,

0:38:39.360 --> 0:38:43.319
<v Speaker 1>what do you say. I'd say that's completely false, Buck,

0:38:43.400 --> 0:38:45.680
<v Speaker 1>that is a false narrative. And a couple of things

0:38:45.680 --> 0:38:49.040
<v Speaker 1>that think are really important. And I encourage American citizens,

0:38:49.200 --> 0:38:51.719
<v Speaker 1>all your listeners to research this. Two thousand and six

0:38:52.000 --> 0:38:55.960
<v Speaker 1>I bipartisan bill, the Secure Fence Act, both sides of

0:38:56.000 --> 0:38:58.759
<v Speaker 1>the side of the aisle voted for it. It led

0:38:58.800 --> 0:39:04.160
<v Speaker 1>to six hundred and fifty four miles of barrier being built. Yeah,

0:39:04.480 --> 0:39:06.960
<v Speaker 1>let's let's look at the facts. Let's go to Tucson,

0:39:07.200 --> 0:39:11.560
<v Speaker 1>Let's go to um El Paso, San Diego, human Arizona,

0:39:11.600 --> 0:39:14.120
<v Speaker 1>for example, in two thousand and six, when the when

0:39:14.120 --> 0:39:16.840
<v Speaker 1>the barrier started being built, twenty three miles and barrier

0:39:17.000 --> 0:39:20.440
<v Speaker 1>you're threw in some technology and personnel. The illegal immigration

0:39:20.480 --> 0:39:22.239
<v Speaker 1>went from about one hundred and forty one hundred and

0:39:22.239 --> 0:39:25.480
<v Speaker 1>fifty thousand to less than fifteen thousand. Overall crime in

0:39:25.520 --> 0:39:27.480
<v Speaker 1>that area went way down. And I could give you

0:39:27.480 --> 0:39:31.000
<v Speaker 1>a fact after fact after fact. Walls work. And here's

0:39:31.160 --> 0:39:34.440
<v Speaker 1>here's one more important thing is that when when I

0:39:34.520 --> 0:39:36.880
<v Speaker 1>say that, is that it's got to be part of

0:39:36.880 --> 0:39:41.320
<v Speaker 1>a multi layer strategy of infrastructure, the wall, technology and personnel.

0:39:41.360 --> 0:39:44.320
<v Speaker 1>When you put all those in strategical location, absolutely works.

0:39:44.520 --> 0:39:47.759
<v Speaker 1>Data facts say it works. What does it make you?

0:39:48.040 --> 0:39:49.680
<v Speaker 1>What does it make you think? When when you hear

0:39:50.440 --> 0:39:52.879
<v Speaker 1>the way that I mean, look, let's just be honest,

0:39:52.960 --> 0:39:56.720
<v Speaker 1>ding The Democrats have taken a tone about border patrol

0:39:56.760 --> 0:39:59.680
<v Speaker 1>in recent years and about immigrations and customs enforcement, or

0:40:00.040 --> 0:40:03.000
<v Speaker 1>even more recently as we saw this past summer, where

0:40:03.239 --> 0:40:06.840
<v Speaker 1>they say things like ice should be abolished. They indicate

0:40:06.840 --> 0:40:09.359
<v Speaker 1>that the problem that we really have is the men

0:40:09.400 --> 0:40:13.359
<v Speaker 1>and women who are trying to enforce immigration laws. Just

0:40:13.880 --> 0:40:16.120
<v Speaker 1>how do you feel about that? And also when did

0:40:16.120 --> 0:40:18.799
<v Speaker 1>this change happen? I mean, did you can you tell

0:40:18.840 --> 0:40:20.879
<v Speaker 1>me when all of a sudden one of the major

0:40:20.880 --> 0:40:24.000
<v Speaker 1>political parties decided that they were no longer in favor

0:40:24.000 --> 0:40:25.880
<v Speaker 1>of securing the border. Because to be honest, man, I

0:40:25.880 --> 0:40:27.920
<v Speaker 1>don't see how people can make the argument that the

0:40:27.960 --> 0:40:29.840
<v Speaker 1>Polo season the schumers of the world do want to

0:40:29.840 --> 0:40:32.520
<v Speaker 1>secure the border right now? So Buck, I agree, And

0:40:32.800 --> 0:40:34.799
<v Speaker 1>first of all, thank you so much for asking that.

0:40:34.920 --> 0:40:38.399
<v Speaker 1>So I feel okay speaking on behalf of the men

0:40:38.400 --> 0:40:40.919
<v Speaker 1>and women who are risking their lives every single day

0:40:40.960 --> 0:40:44.320
<v Speaker 1>to answer on their behalf. And when somebody says the

0:40:44.440 --> 0:40:47.239
<v Speaker 1>vile things that they say about ICE and about the

0:40:47.239 --> 0:40:53.120
<v Speaker 1>Border Patrol, I am disgusted. It is reckless and is irresponsible. Today,

0:40:53.160 --> 0:40:55.279
<v Speaker 1>one hundred and twenty eight Border Patrol agents have lost

0:40:55.320 --> 0:40:58.080
<v Speaker 1>their lives defending the front lines of this country, trying

0:40:58.120 --> 0:41:00.880
<v Speaker 1>to protect everybody. In the last two years, ICE have

0:41:01.040 --> 0:41:04.440
<v Speaker 1>arrested two hundred and sixty six thousand criminal aliens, one

0:41:04.520 --> 0:41:08.880
<v Speaker 1>hundred thousand assault, thirty thousand sexual crimes, four thousand kidnap,

0:41:09.040 --> 0:41:12.200
<v Speaker 1>these four thousand homicides, remove six thousand gang or non

0:41:12.200 --> 0:41:14.839
<v Speaker 1>suspective gang members, and I could keep going on and on.

0:41:15.200 --> 0:41:18.640
<v Speaker 1>Yet they want to call ICE bile disgusting thing while

0:41:18.640 --> 0:41:22.840
<v Speaker 1>they're out there risking our lives, saving people's lives and

0:41:22.960 --> 0:41:26.200
<v Speaker 1>getting bad people off the streets. It's disgusting, it's reckless,

0:41:26.239 --> 0:41:28.359
<v Speaker 1>and it's got to stop, and we need to call

0:41:28.440 --> 0:41:31.560
<v Speaker 1>them on it. What does Border Patrol need right now?

0:41:31.560 --> 0:41:34.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean, based on the numbers of people that are

0:41:34.160 --> 0:41:37.560
<v Speaker 1>coming to the border now, both coming in through the

0:41:37.680 --> 0:41:41.320
<v Speaker 1>massive asylum loophole that still is there and that Congress

0:41:41.560 --> 0:41:44.160
<v Speaker 1>has to address as well. As all the illegal drug

0:41:44.200 --> 0:41:47.920
<v Speaker 1>smuggling and other other activities, other illicit activities that are

0:41:47.960 --> 0:41:51.480
<v Speaker 1>going on in adding around the border region. What does

0:41:51.520 --> 0:41:53.640
<v Speaker 1>border patrol need right now to get the job done.

0:41:53.800 --> 0:41:55.640
<v Speaker 1>And in terms of the funding we're talking about here

0:41:55.719 --> 0:41:58.600
<v Speaker 1>one point two five billion, is that going to cut it? No,

0:41:58.719 --> 0:42:01.399
<v Speaker 1>So so let's let's take the latter first. So again

0:42:01.480 --> 0:42:05.759
<v Speaker 1>from from a law enforcement border security aspect only, right,

0:42:06.200 --> 0:42:08.680
<v Speaker 1>no politics, I'm not a politician that the one point

0:42:08.760 --> 0:42:12.200
<v Speaker 1>three that the current proposal, as we've heard about, it's

0:42:12.239 --> 0:42:15.799
<v Speaker 1>a failure. It does not get the folks the resources

0:42:15.840 --> 0:42:19.240
<v Speaker 1>they need. Border patrols CDP as a whole, including office

0:42:19.360 --> 0:42:22.560
<v Speaker 1>field operations that makes up a CDP. They've been very

0:42:22.560 --> 0:42:24.399
<v Speaker 1>clear what they need and it's it's been and they've

0:42:24.440 --> 0:42:26.759
<v Speaker 1>been very clear for a long time. As part of

0:42:26.800 --> 0:42:29.200
<v Speaker 1>what they need to shut down the avenue in between

0:42:29.239 --> 0:42:32.040
<v Speaker 1>the ports of entry and secure the ports of entry,

0:42:32.560 --> 0:42:35.759
<v Speaker 1>they need a multilayered strategy of the infrastructure, of technology,

0:42:35.760 --> 0:42:38.399
<v Speaker 1>and personnel. The five point seven which they said they need,

0:42:38.400 --> 0:42:42.239
<v Speaker 1>they prioritize the highest areas and they said, it's very

0:42:42.280 --> 0:42:45.320
<v Speaker 1>clear what we need two hundred and thirty additional miles

0:42:45.320 --> 0:42:49.400
<v Speaker 1>of barrier plus additional technology and additional personnel. That's what

0:42:49.480 --> 0:42:51.520
<v Speaker 1>we need to start making a dent and shutting down

0:42:51.560 --> 0:42:54.759
<v Speaker 1>the cartels. This proposal, to me, all it did was

0:42:55.040 --> 0:42:59.080
<v Speaker 1>continue to make the cartels rich and put our country

0:42:59.120 --> 0:43:03.640
<v Speaker 1>at risk. To Mark Morgan, he was the chief of

0:43:03.680 --> 0:43:07.920
<v Speaker 1>Border Patrol under the Obama administration. Folks, So, well, you're

0:43:07.920 --> 0:43:10.640
<v Speaker 1>hearing people say, oh, it's just it's just Trump's border

0:43:10.680 --> 0:43:12.960
<v Speaker 1>patrol that says that offense would be helpful. No, No,

0:43:13.040 --> 0:43:16.359
<v Speaker 1>it's just practitioners, professionals, people that are supposed to and

0:43:16.520 --> 0:43:19.320
<v Speaker 1>as their mission, secure the border. They're the ones that

0:43:19.360 --> 0:43:22.160
<v Speaker 1>are saying that a fence that barriers more barriers than

0:43:22.200 --> 0:43:25.040
<v Speaker 1>we already have would be helpful. But Mark, if I

0:43:25.040 --> 0:43:27.120
<v Speaker 1>could ask you a bit about the ICE, the immigrations

0:43:27.120 --> 0:43:30.359
<v Speaker 1>and customs enforcement side of this equation, because really, and

0:43:30.480 --> 0:43:32.359
<v Speaker 1>a border patrol in San Diego told me that they

0:43:32.360 --> 0:43:36.040
<v Speaker 1>wished that there was more of a synergy, a bureaucratic

0:43:36.080 --> 0:43:39.840
<v Speaker 1>synergy between ICE and border patrol, and that would just

0:43:39.880 --> 0:43:42.000
<v Speaker 1>make things easier. So that's one point that I thought

0:43:42.080 --> 0:43:44.840
<v Speaker 1>was interesting that they repeatedly made to me. But also

0:43:45.280 --> 0:43:47.880
<v Speaker 1>it's clear that ICE is an important piece of this

0:43:47.920 --> 0:43:51.840
<v Speaker 1>whole immigration equation. And when I see that the Democrats

0:43:51.880 --> 0:43:56.160
<v Speaker 1>want to fund fewer beds for people entertainment, what's that

0:43:56.200 --> 0:43:58.600
<v Speaker 1>all about? Why? Why would Democrats who claim to want

0:43:58.600 --> 0:44:01.440
<v Speaker 1>to secure the border right now along with Republicans, why

0:44:01.440 --> 0:44:05.120
<v Speaker 1>would they want fewer ice attention beds? So, look, this

0:44:05.200 --> 0:44:08.239
<v Speaker 1>is another a great question, and I'm doing my best

0:44:08.239 --> 0:44:10.920
<v Speaker 1>to stay a political book. But but it's impossible for

0:44:10.960 --> 0:44:14.360
<v Speaker 1>me because when you talk about reducing the ice beds,

0:44:14.400 --> 0:44:17.719
<v Speaker 1>there is no conclusion except they want to do two things, right,

0:44:18.040 --> 0:44:22.439
<v Speaker 1>they want to abolish ice via checkbook. By doing that, Look,

0:44:22.520 --> 0:44:24.359
<v Speaker 1>you don't have to be a mathematician. Look if you

0:44:24.840 --> 0:44:28.960
<v Speaker 1>if you reduce the bedspace for ice to detain people,

0:44:29.360 --> 0:44:34.480
<v Speaker 1>and by the way, immigration right, illegal immigration is increasing, Right,

0:44:34.480 --> 0:44:36.680
<v Speaker 1>you don't have to be a mathematician. That is what

0:44:36.800 --> 0:44:39.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm referring to is catching release two point zero. We

0:44:39.360 --> 0:44:42.640
<v Speaker 1>already have catching release one point zero from family units

0:44:42.680 --> 0:44:46.080
<v Speaker 1>uncompanied children because of our asylum laws and floor's decisions

0:44:46.280 --> 0:44:48.960
<v Speaker 1>that once they set one foot on American soil, they're

0:44:49.000 --> 0:44:51.919
<v Speaker 1>allowed into the United States, no questions asked. That's catch

0:44:51.960 --> 0:44:55.440
<v Speaker 1>released one point zero. By reducing the beds, you're forcing

0:44:55.520 --> 0:44:58.960
<v Speaker 1>ice you're gonna force ICE to release people. Right now,

0:44:59.200 --> 0:45:02.720
<v Speaker 1>ICE has forty nine thousand people in detention. Eighty seven

0:45:02.760 --> 0:45:05.279
<v Speaker 1>percent of them have been committed of a crime or

0:45:05.400 --> 0:45:08.919
<v Speaker 1>charged with the crime, and or suspective gang members. That

0:45:09.040 --> 0:45:11.880
<v Speaker 1>is unconsortable. By reducing events, they're going to have to

0:45:12.239 --> 0:45:15.640
<v Speaker 1>they will be forced to let criminals back in the streets.

0:45:16.000 --> 0:45:17.880
<v Speaker 1>So these aren't just and this is I know that

0:45:17.880 --> 0:45:20.360
<v Speaker 1>you're hitting this point home, but just to reiterate for everybody,

0:45:21.000 --> 0:45:24.759
<v Speaker 1>when we're talking about ICE detention beds, there's overwhelmingly these

0:45:24.760 --> 0:45:27.600
<v Speaker 1>are people that are being held for crimes in addition

0:45:27.680 --> 0:45:31.480
<v Speaker 1>to their illegal status, including sixteen hundred murderers, which I

0:45:31.520 --> 0:45:33.920
<v Speaker 1>think is a number that people need to keep in mind.

0:45:33.920 --> 0:45:37.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Mark, what was I mean? I just think

0:45:37.200 --> 0:45:40.439
<v Speaker 1>it's interesting to understand the progression here, how we got

0:45:40.480 --> 0:45:43.080
<v Speaker 1>to this point about about the crisis of the border,

0:45:43.120 --> 0:45:46.080
<v Speaker 1>about what's going on at the border. Do you remember

0:45:46.520 --> 0:45:51.560
<v Speaker 1>from an executive prioritization perspective when you were the head

0:45:51.560 --> 0:45:54.719
<v Speaker 1>of Border Patrol and the Obama administration, what decisions were

0:45:54.719 --> 0:45:57.680
<v Speaker 1>made from the top down that you think now, whether

0:45:57.760 --> 0:46:02.759
<v Speaker 1>at the time or in retrospect, we're mistake. Look I

0:46:03.520 --> 0:46:07.200
<v Speaker 1>My goal is not to talk ill. But the fact

0:46:07.600 --> 0:46:10.759
<v Speaker 1>is in twenty sixteen and people, hey, don't listen to me.

0:46:10.800 --> 0:46:13.600
<v Speaker 1>Now go back to my congressional testimony. In twenty and sixteen,

0:46:13.960 --> 0:46:17.960
<v Speaker 1>we were having the humanitarian crisis back to Bend as

0:46:17.640 --> 0:46:20.479
<v Speaker 1>well as well as the nastal security crisis. This isn't

0:46:20.480 --> 0:46:23.439
<v Speaker 1>a new crisis. We've been saying this for a very

0:46:23.600 --> 0:46:27.680
<v Speaker 1>very long time. My perspective is is that we called

0:46:27.680 --> 0:46:31.640
<v Speaker 1>this a national security crisis, we called it humanitarian crisis

0:46:31.640 --> 0:46:33.919
<v Speaker 1>back then, and we have been for a while. In

0:46:33.960 --> 0:46:36.640
<v Speaker 1>my position to answer your question about I feel it

0:46:36.719 --> 0:46:40.560
<v Speaker 1>was ignored. I feel just a general ignoring of the

0:46:40.680 --> 0:46:43.480
<v Speaker 1>issue and not bring it to life. The one thing

0:46:43.520 --> 0:46:45.520
<v Speaker 1>that you can say about this president, and you can

0:46:45.560 --> 0:46:47.600
<v Speaker 1>talk about the style all you want, but he has

0:46:47.640 --> 0:46:52.320
<v Speaker 1>brought greater national tension to this very very critical issue

0:46:52.360 --> 0:46:55.320
<v Speaker 1>for our country than ever before when I was chief,

0:46:55.560 --> 0:46:58.279
<v Speaker 1>I believe it was ignored. And just before we let

0:46:58.280 --> 0:47:01.239
<v Speaker 1>you go, Mark, there's a debate about whether walls work

0:47:01.320 --> 0:47:03.759
<v Speaker 1>or not, which I think is farcical. But and I'm

0:47:03.760 --> 0:47:06.200
<v Speaker 1>glad that you've weighed in as an expert and as

0:47:06.200 --> 0:47:11.400
<v Speaker 1>a practitioner of border security. UM that walls obviously do work,

0:47:11.640 --> 0:47:14.840
<v Speaker 1>but also there's there's an off there's a repeated talking

0:47:14.880 --> 0:47:17.800
<v Speaker 1>point off for pe to talking point among Democrats that

0:47:18.480 --> 0:47:21.400
<v Speaker 1>the crisis is manufactured. There is no crisis. Gavin Newsom,

0:47:21.520 --> 0:47:24.400
<v Speaker 1>the governor California, just said, I think it was yesterday,

0:47:24.520 --> 0:47:27.279
<v Speaker 1>there is no crisis. This is all nonsense. You've used

0:47:27.280 --> 0:47:28.840
<v Speaker 1>the word crisis a lot. What do you say to

0:47:28.880 --> 0:47:32.200
<v Speaker 1>people say there is no crisis? So I think that's

0:47:32.520 --> 0:47:34.600
<v Speaker 1>I was just talking about another call of you about that.

0:47:34.800 --> 0:47:36.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, what do you say to somebody when when

0:47:36.960 --> 0:47:42.200
<v Speaker 1>you give statistics out about the incredible hundreds and hundreds,

0:47:42.360 --> 0:47:45.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, pounds of narcotic that come in through the

0:47:45.040 --> 0:47:47.600
<v Speaker 1>southwest border. Ninety percent of the heron that leads to

0:47:48.080 --> 0:47:51.080
<v Speaker 1>sixty thousand overdose in the country come from Southwest border.

0:47:51.200 --> 0:47:53.839
<v Speaker 1>People are being human traffic, young women and children are

0:47:53.840 --> 0:47:56.920
<v Speaker 1>being sexually expoited for their live. We have semis thirteen

0:47:57.040 --> 0:48:01.360
<v Speaker 1>porn through our border. Are permitting those cities in our country,

0:48:01.480 --> 0:48:03.239
<v Speaker 1>and we could go on and on and on with

0:48:03.320 --> 0:48:07.040
<v Speaker 1>the staffs. What that tells me is is identity politics.

0:48:07.080 --> 0:48:11.720
<v Speaker 1>They were refusing, refusing to acknowledge the facts, and they'd

0:48:11.840 --> 0:48:15.520
<v Speaker 1>rather they would rather stick to their political party and

0:48:16.200 --> 0:48:20.200
<v Speaker 1>protect their political party more than protect this country. That's

0:48:20.239 --> 0:48:23.200
<v Speaker 1>what that says to me. From a law enforcement border

0:48:23.320 --> 0:48:27.400
<v Speaker 1>security perspective that I know, that's what that tells me. Mark,

0:48:27.800 --> 0:48:29.839

0:49:45.080 --> 0:49:51.600
<v Speaker 1>this Russia hoax for two years, think of it. They've

0:49:51.680 --> 0:49:57.440
<v Speaker 1>interviewed over two hundred people, They've studied hundreds of thousands

0:49:57.520 --> 0:50:03.319
<v Speaker 1>of documents and pages, and Richard just announced that they

0:50:03.400 --> 0:50:10.879
<v Speaker 1>found no collusion between Donald Trump and Russia. I've had

0:50:10.920 --> 0:50:14.040
<v Speaker 1>the CNN monitor on the in the Freedom Hunt here

0:50:14.760 --> 0:50:17.400
<v Speaker 1>for quite a while now a couple of hours I

0:50:17.480 --> 0:50:19.600
<v Speaker 1>put the SoundOff, obviously a Fox on too, so that

0:50:19.640 --> 0:50:22.360
<v Speaker 1>I don't feel like all hope is lost in the world.

0:50:23.560 --> 0:50:25.520
<v Speaker 1>I have not seen a single story pretty so much.

0:50:25.560 --> 0:50:27.640
<v Speaker 1>Have you seen a single story about how the Senate

0:50:27.680 --> 0:50:31.719
<v Speaker 1>Intel Committee has finished their report no collusion. I just

0:50:31.760 --> 0:50:34.759
<v Speaker 1>haven't seen that story. Somehow, on the Chiron, we're looking

0:50:34.800 --> 0:50:36.759
<v Speaker 1>at the verb a girl across the screen here because

0:50:36.760 --> 0:50:39.560
<v Speaker 1>I've got what a closed captioning there you go, I

0:50:39.560 --> 0:50:42.359
<v Speaker 1>haven't seen it. No, it's non existent. Today I am

0:50:42.400 --> 0:50:45.839
<v Speaker 1>seeing that the judge's decision is they're waiting on whether

0:50:45.880 --> 0:50:48.080
<v Speaker 1>Maniford lied to the Mother team in violation of his

0:50:48.160 --> 0:50:52.400
<v Speaker 1>plea Deal's well, let me ask everybody this, what's a

0:50:52.440 --> 0:50:56.239
<v Speaker 1>bigger story. Maybe maybe Manaford, who is already going to

0:50:56.280 --> 0:50:59.920
<v Speaker 1>prison for a long time, lied in violation of his

0:51:00.040 --> 0:51:02.360
<v Speaker 1>plea deal. Or the fact that the Senate Intel Committee,

0:51:02.680 --> 0:51:05.799
<v Speaker 1>which has access to classified which has the ability to

0:51:05.880 --> 0:51:11.160
<v Speaker 1>subpoena documents, to invest, to investigate, and to interrogate or

0:51:11.719 --> 0:51:15.120
<v Speaker 1>question people that it wants to as witnesses and all

0:51:15.120 --> 0:51:17.719
<v Speaker 1>this that it came out with the report that says, yeah,

0:51:17.719 --> 0:51:21.759
<v Speaker 1>there's no there's no collusion. Sorry, we're not able to

0:51:22.000 --> 0:51:25.239
<v Speaker 1>find it. I think we all know the answer to that.

0:51:26.840 --> 0:51:31.200
<v Speaker 1>But you know, meanwhile, the Washington Post, the maybe this

0:51:31.440 --> 0:51:34.600
<v Speaker 1>thing happened analysis is what they're falling back on. Now.

0:51:35.080 --> 0:51:37.800
<v Speaker 1>This is the Post and an analysis piece, which is

0:51:37.800 --> 0:51:41.160
<v Speaker 1>just a fancy way of saying an editorial that we

0:51:41.200 --> 0:51:43.600
<v Speaker 1>want to try to give more credibility to if there

0:51:43.760 --> 0:51:47.200
<v Speaker 1>was collusion with Russia. Here's where it might have occurred.

0:51:47.880 --> 0:51:53.800
<v Speaker 1>You know, if I were, you know, seven feet tall

0:51:53.960 --> 0:51:56.680
<v Speaker 1>and could jump forty inches, I might be an NBA

0:51:56.760 --> 0:51:59.279
<v Speaker 1>basketball player. But I am neither of those things. So

0:51:59.360 --> 0:52:02.919
<v Speaker 1>why is that something that anyone needs to hear? If

0:52:02.960 --> 0:52:06.400
<v Speaker 1>there was collusion. Here's what might have happened. Well, I

0:52:06.560 --> 0:52:09.200
<v Speaker 1>think about how where this stops. It doesn't not anywhere.

0:52:09.840 --> 0:52:14.840
<v Speaker 1>If Hillary Clinton was essentially running a money laundering operation

0:52:14.920 --> 0:52:17.239
<v Speaker 1>through the Clinton Foundation for herself and her husband and

0:52:17.280 --> 0:52:21.520
<v Speaker 1>selling it. Oh no, that's that actually happened. But we don't.

0:52:21.520 --> 0:52:24.560
<v Speaker 1>We don't have to get too far with the hypotheticals there. This, though,

0:52:24.640 --> 0:52:28.680
<v Speaker 1>is where you're going to see a media that gets

0:52:28.960 --> 0:52:34.640
<v Speaker 1>really nasty and you're going to see them feel really insecure.

0:52:34.719 --> 0:52:36.360
<v Speaker 1>Media's full of a lot of very insecure people to

0:52:36.400 --> 0:52:39.480
<v Speaker 1>begin with, but they know that this is they're running

0:52:39.480 --> 0:52:45.080
<v Speaker 1>out of time. They are running out of time with

0:52:45.200 --> 0:52:49.279
<v Speaker 1>the Russia collusion delusion, and that's why you're starting to

0:52:49.280 --> 0:52:53.120
<v Speaker 1>see this. Well, it's my favorite, really, of all of

0:52:53.120 --> 0:52:58.600
<v Speaker 1>these ridiculous positions they take, is well, maybe we already

0:52:58.640 --> 0:53:01.600
<v Speaker 1>proved Russia collusion. Have you seeing that all we need

0:53:01.640 --> 0:53:04.880
<v Speaker 1>to know about is the Trump Tower meeting. I'm like, oh, okay,

0:53:04.920 --> 0:53:08.480
<v Speaker 1>stop the presses. Somebody called Mueller. He already found it

0:53:08.520 --> 0:53:11.040
<v Speaker 1>a long long time ago. I don't think so, folks,

0:53:11.920 --> 0:53:14.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't think so. But there are there are major

0:53:14.520 --> 0:53:18.239
<v Speaker 1>news organizations that are going to have to hide from

0:53:18.280 --> 0:53:21.920
<v Speaker 1>their their peers in the media, people like me, because

0:53:22.120 --> 0:53:24.120
<v Speaker 1>I will not forget what they have done for the

0:53:24.200 --> 0:53:28.480
<v Speaker 1>last two years, which is light their credibility on fire

0:53:29.000 --> 0:53:35.040
<v Speaker 1>in an effort to pander to the sensibilities of Trump,

0:53:35.160 --> 0:53:38.200
<v Speaker 1>draining an audience that has overcome with Trump's arrangement syndrome.

0:53:38.440 --> 0:53:41.839
<v Speaker 1>That is the reality of what has been going on here.

0:53:42.200 --> 0:53:46.840
<v Speaker 1>I see that the Senate voted today to put Bill

0:53:46.880 --> 0:53:51.880
<v Speaker 1>Barr through further on in the process, so he's closer.

0:53:52.160 --> 0:53:56.800
<v Speaker 1>He's closer now to being a the new attorney general.

0:53:57.440 --> 0:53:59.319
<v Speaker 1>And I think, look, I think he's going to be

0:53:59.320 --> 0:54:01.719
<v Speaker 1>a very effective attorney general. I think that he'll do

0:54:01.800 --> 0:54:04.920
<v Speaker 1>a good job in the role. But everyone has been

0:54:04.920 --> 0:54:08.160
<v Speaker 1>saying that once there's a new attorney well, these sources

0:54:08.239 --> 0:54:10.359
<v Speaker 1>people have been telling me, once there's a new attorney general,

0:54:10.400 --> 0:54:14.960
<v Speaker 1>that's when you might have the Muller report finally given

0:54:14.960 --> 0:54:16.719
<v Speaker 1>to because it has to go to the Attorney general.

0:54:16.840 --> 0:54:21.040
<v Speaker 1>People have forgotten all along that these are executive branch employees.

0:54:22.160 --> 0:54:27.520
<v Speaker 1>Muller is an executive branch employee. His boss is a

0:54:27.600 --> 0:54:32.560
<v Speaker 1>subordinate of the presidents. So you know, when people keep saying, oh, well,

0:54:32.560 --> 0:54:35.280
<v Speaker 1>did Whittaker, has he been briefed on this? He's supposed

0:54:35.320 --> 0:54:39.000
<v Speaker 1>to be briefed on this. There has been a false conception,

0:54:39.200 --> 0:54:43.080
<v Speaker 1>and it's intentionally created by the media where the Mueller

0:54:43.160 --> 0:54:47.439
<v Speaker 1>probe is this island unto itself that has no accountability

0:54:47.440 --> 0:54:51.560
<v Speaker 1>and no oversight. The possible exception of Rod Rosenstein, who

0:54:51.840 --> 0:54:54.680
<v Speaker 1>is a from what everything I'm told, a bad guy

0:54:55.920 --> 0:54:59.759
<v Speaker 1>and is very anti Trump and very opposed to you know,

0:55:00.000 --> 0:55:02.120
<v Speaker 1>Trump twenty twenty and all that. I mean, he is

0:55:02.200 --> 0:55:06.080
<v Speaker 1>not on forget about being on team Trump. He's just

0:55:06.160 --> 0:55:08.919
<v Speaker 1>not on the straight and narrow here. I mean, he's

0:55:08.960 --> 0:55:11.239
<v Speaker 1>been a partisan actor in this behind the scenes the

0:55:11.280 --> 0:55:13.480
<v Speaker 1>whole time. But they know that when Bill Barr comes along,

0:55:13.480 --> 0:55:15.600
<v Speaker 1>here's a guy who was attorney general, who has a

0:55:16.239 --> 0:55:19.920
<v Speaker 1>very strong record, and they're not gonna be able to

0:55:19.920 --> 0:55:23.480
<v Speaker 1>say that he is. You know, They're not gonna be

0:55:23.520 --> 0:55:25.359
<v Speaker 1>able to come up with some reason to explain how

0:55:25.400 --> 0:55:27.680
<v Speaker 1>he's not qualified, so he's going to become the ag

0:55:28.640 --> 0:55:30.799
<v Speaker 1>and then this whole collusion probe may come to an end,

0:55:31.040 --> 0:55:33.320
<v Speaker 1>and the Democrats are just going to be like kids

0:55:33.520 --> 0:55:37.000
<v Speaker 1>in a grocery store at the at the counter when

0:55:37.040 --> 0:55:39.279
<v Speaker 1>they want to buy bubblegum and mom says no. They're

0:55:39.280 --> 0:55:40.759
<v Speaker 1>just gonna say, you know, I'm gonna hold my breath.

0:55:40.800 --> 0:55:42.799
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna hold my breath. They're not going to be

0:55:42.840 --> 0:55:46.600
<v Speaker 1>able to engage in any kind of real debate with

0:55:46.640 --> 0:55:50.000
<v Speaker 1>anyone who knows anything about the Mulla probe because or

0:55:50.000 --> 0:55:53.680
<v Speaker 1>about Russia collusion and the Trump administration, because it's all

0:55:53.680 --> 0:55:56.480
<v Speaker 1>over man. I mean, they don't have the goods we've known.

0:55:56.520 --> 0:55:59.839
<v Speaker 1>They haven't had the goods, and people should be held

0:55:59.840 --> 0:56:02.000
<v Speaker 1>to account for this. I mean people in the media

0:56:02.120 --> 0:56:06.640
<v Speaker 1>who were just smug liars and clowns this whole time

0:56:06.880 --> 0:56:10.160
<v Speaker 1>because they hate Trump so much they would say anything. Well,

0:56:10.160 --> 0:56:12.279
<v Speaker 1>now we should say why are you so dumb? We

0:56:12.280 --> 0:56:14.520
<v Speaker 1>should ask a lot of very prominent people in the

0:56:14.520 --> 0:56:17.560
<v Speaker 1>media that question. One thing that I noticed with sexual

0:56:17.680 --> 0:56:22.000
<v Speaker 1>violence is that there are many people who would like

0:56:22.040 --> 0:56:25.560
<v Speaker 1>to glance away from this. But what and who we

0:56:25.680 --> 0:56:29.919
<v Speaker 1>glance away from says so much about what our priorities

0:56:30.200 --> 0:56:33.080
<v Speaker 1>as a society, and it says so much about our

0:56:33.160 --> 0:56:37.359
<v Speaker 1>health and our emotional well being. Don't be afraid to

0:56:37.400 --> 0:56:41.880
<v Speaker 1>see survivors for who they are. That was doctor Vanessa

0:56:41.920 --> 0:56:45.960
<v Speaker 1>Tyson last night. She is one of two women now

0:56:46.000 --> 0:56:50.840
<v Speaker 1>who have come out and on the record, with corroborated

0:56:50.920 --> 0:56:54.480
<v Speaker 1>details and with agreement from all parties involved that there

0:56:54.560 --> 0:56:58.480
<v Speaker 1>was a sexual encounter. She has come out and accused

0:56:58.760 --> 0:57:03.320
<v Speaker 1>the Lieutenant Governor, Justin Fairfax of Virginia of sexual assault,

0:57:04.560 --> 0:57:09.399
<v Speaker 1>of a forcible rape. And do you hear her talking

0:57:09.400 --> 0:57:12.480
<v Speaker 1>about this? And I'm sure a lot of thoughts come

0:57:12.480 --> 0:57:14.560
<v Speaker 1>to mind, but one that comes to mind for me

0:57:14.719 --> 0:57:20.400
<v Speaker 1>is where is the press that made the Me Too

0:57:20.480 --> 0:57:24.920
<v Speaker 1>movement the single biggest story in the country, you know,

0:57:24.960 --> 0:57:29.080
<v Speaker 1>about a year or so ago. Where is the press

0:57:29.880 --> 0:57:35.600
<v Speaker 1>that was trying to use every tool of propaganda and

0:57:35.800 --> 0:57:39.440
<v Speaker 1>character assassination at their disposal to bring down Brett Cavanaugh

0:57:40.320 --> 0:57:45.640
<v Speaker 1>on allegations that were nowhere near the credibility level of

0:57:45.640 --> 0:57:48.600
<v Speaker 1>what has been leveled against Fairfax. See, this is why

0:57:48.680 --> 0:57:51.640
<v Speaker 1>we don't trust the press. This is why you have

0:57:51.880 --> 0:57:57.000
<v Speaker 1>to understand who is presenting you with news, their what

0:57:57.160 --> 0:58:02.480
<v Speaker 1>their background and biases are, and don't believe them when

0:58:02.560 --> 0:58:05.520
<v Speaker 1>they say, oh, the press, we're just the guardians of democracy.

0:58:05.560 --> 0:58:07.600
<v Speaker 1>And Trump is so me when he calls us fake news.

0:58:07.880 --> 0:58:10.800
<v Speaker 1>A lot of them are engaging in fake news. A

0:58:10.800 --> 0:58:14.520
<v Speaker 1>lot of them are propagandists. They are activists for the left.

0:58:14.840 --> 0:58:18.960
<v Speaker 1>They are not journalists. It's a lie. CNN is not

0:58:19.040 --> 0:58:22.920
<v Speaker 1>a journalistic enterprise. It is a wing of the Democratic Party.

0:58:22.960 --> 0:58:26.720
<v Speaker 1>To say otherwise is a lie. It is the propaganda

0:58:26.880 --> 0:58:30.440
<v Speaker 1>arm of the left, as is MSNBC to say otherwise

0:58:30.560 --> 0:58:33.800
<v Speaker 1>is a lie. New York Times, Washington Post, same thing.

0:58:34.680 --> 0:58:37.000
<v Speaker 1>That doesn't mean they don't present facts that are true.

0:58:37.000 --> 0:58:39.360
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't mean they don't do actual reporting. It just

0:58:39.400 --> 0:58:42.600
<v Speaker 1>means the mission is not to inform the public. The

0:58:42.640 --> 0:58:48.040
<v Speaker 1>mission is to influence the public. They don't want you

0:58:48.120 --> 0:58:50.560
<v Speaker 1>to have the information to come to your own conclusions.

0:58:50.720 --> 0:58:54.400
<v Speaker 1>They provide you with information specifically picked and curated and

0:58:54.520 --> 0:58:56.760
<v Speaker 1>presented in such a way that you will come to

0:58:56.880 --> 0:59:00.200
<v Speaker 1>certain conclusions. And one of the ways you know, oh

0:59:00.200 --> 0:59:04.920
<v Speaker 1>this is you see how they cover issues that aren't

0:59:04.960 --> 0:59:10.440
<v Speaker 1>favorable to their ideology. Fairfax is credibly accused twice over

0:59:10.520 --> 0:59:16.320
<v Speaker 1>of in recent memory. You know, sexual assaults against women

0:59:16.360 --> 0:59:18.680
<v Speaker 1>who do have nothing to gain because they won't be

0:59:18.960 --> 0:59:22.280
<v Speaker 1>They're not gonna. I'll tell you this right now. You

0:59:22.360 --> 0:59:25.200
<v Speaker 1>will not see doctor Vanessa Tyson on the cover of

0:59:25.320 --> 0:59:31.160
<v Speaker 1>Time magazine. Ever. Ever, why did you see Christine blasi

0:59:31.240 --> 0:59:35.160
<v Speaker 1>Ford on the cover of Time magazine? Who? By the way,

0:59:35.760 --> 0:59:40.600
<v Speaker 1>what happened to doctor Vanessa Tyson is a felony and

0:59:42.360 --> 0:59:45.880
<v Speaker 1>far worse than what was even alleged to have happened

0:59:46.360 --> 0:59:50.000
<v Speaker 1>with Christine blasi Ford and Brett Kavanaugh, which was essentially

0:59:50.040 --> 0:59:52.480
<v Speaker 1>she claimed to have been have been groped and then

0:59:52.560 --> 0:59:55.400
<v Speaker 1>and ran away, groped by a drunk guy, and then

0:59:55.400 --> 0:59:59.439
<v Speaker 1>she ran away. She all she imputed into this make

0:59:59.480 --> 1:00:02.000
<v Speaker 1>believing counter that at least didn't happen with Brett Kavanaugh,

1:00:02.160 --> 1:00:04.200
<v Speaker 1>might have happened with another guy. I've always I've always

1:00:04.600 --> 1:00:07.560
<v Speaker 1>held that that was possible, that maybe she had in

1:00:07.640 --> 1:00:10.240
<v Speaker 1>her mind or for the purposes of telling the story,

1:00:10.520 --> 1:00:13.200
<v Speaker 1>she had replaced whoever did this to her with Brett Kavanaugh.

1:00:13.920 --> 1:00:15.920
<v Speaker 1>And if that happened to her, that's that's a very

1:00:15.960 --> 1:00:18.760
<v Speaker 1>bad thing. It's it's very unsettling, it's scary. But it

1:00:18.800 --> 1:00:23.360
<v Speaker 1>wasn't Brett Kavanaugh. But even if an incident had happened

1:00:23.400 --> 1:00:25.840
<v Speaker 1>to her, what happened with what Fairfax is accused to

1:00:25.840 --> 1:00:29.280
<v Speaker 1>have done. He's accused to have also sexually assaulted another

1:00:29.320 --> 1:00:32.600
<v Speaker 1>woman in college and said to her that nobody will

1:00:32.640 --> 1:00:36.880
<v Speaker 1>believe you because you were sexually assaulted by somebody else

1:00:36.920 --> 1:00:41.360
<v Speaker 1>in college and he knew about it. This stuff is true.

1:00:41.400 --> 1:00:44.440
<v Speaker 1>He's a bad guy. I mean, he's a predator, and

1:00:44.520 --> 1:00:49.120
<v Speaker 1>a predator as an adult, not a teenager who allegedly

1:00:49.120 --> 1:00:53.320
<v Speaker 1>got too drunk and was grabbing somebody one night. This

1:00:53.480 --> 1:00:58.720
<v Speaker 1>isn't a whole other stratosphere of seriousness. Where are the

1:00:58.760 --> 1:01:01.600
<v Speaker 1>meat to Where are the meat? Two protesters? Where are

1:01:01.600 --> 1:01:04.680
<v Speaker 1>the marchers where? You know? This is why you can't

1:01:04.680 --> 1:01:08.320
<v Speaker 1>take the left seriously. They don't have principles. They pursue power.

1:01:08.400 --> 1:01:12.960
<v Speaker 1>It's not the same thing. Why do anti war protesters

1:01:13.000 --> 1:01:16.520
<v Speaker 1>disappear when there's a Democrat waging war, say Obama and Afghanistan,

1:01:17.040 --> 1:01:19.640
<v Speaker 1>But when there's a Republican waging war, it's, oh my gosh.

1:01:19.640 --> 1:01:21.720
<v Speaker 1>We should all have to see photos of people in

1:01:21.840 --> 1:01:25.720
<v Speaker 1>caskets into you know, everything possible to emotionalize the issue,

1:01:25.760 --> 1:01:31.120
<v Speaker 1>and it's terrible and a warmonger because they seize on

1:01:31.400 --> 1:01:36.160
<v Speaker 1>specific policies as a means of attacking the political opposition

1:01:36.600 --> 1:01:38.680
<v Speaker 1>and me too. And I was worried about this in

1:01:38.760 --> 1:01:40.360
<v Speaker 1>the beginning. I wouldn't even say I was worried. I

1:01:40.400 --> 1:01:43.480
<v Speaker 1>knew from the beginning it would be weaponized for political purposes,

1:01:43.480 --> 1:01:46.560
<v Speaker 1>and it was, and it was all building toward that

1:01:46.680 --> 1:01:50.400
<v Speaker 1>one shot. They had to stop Brett Kavanaugh from being

1:01:50.400 --> 1:01:52.680
<v Speaker 1>on the Supreme Court for the next thirty or forty years,

1:01:54.200 --> 1:02:01.000
<v Speaker 1>and they overreached. They overreached. I still believe with Kavanaugh's

1:02:01.040 --> 1:02:04.720
<v Speaker 1>incredible defense if he had not had Accuser number two

1:02:05.400 --> 1:02:07.200
<v Speaker 1>who had to ask other people, I don't know if

1:02:07.200 --> 1:02:08.840
<v Speaker 1>this thing happened. I think maybe it happened. Do you

1:02:08.880 --> 1:02:11.680
<v Speaker 1>remember it happening? And everybody said, no, we don't remember

1:02:11.680 --> 1:02:15.280
<v Speaker 1>it happening. That's that's quite an allegation to level. And

1:02:15.280 --> 1:02:18.040
<v Speaker 1>then accuser number three, who was the might as well

1:02:18.040 --> 1:02:21.960
<v Speaker 1>have said that Brett Cavanaugh and you know seven Green

1:02:22.120 --> 1:02:25.960
<v Speaker 1>Space aliens abducted her and abused her, along with you know,

1:02:26.040 --> 1:02:28.560
<v Speaker 1>the Queen of England and Abraham Lincoln. I mean accuser

1:02:28.640 --> 1:02:32.600
<v Speaker 1>number three, sweat Nick was just just a lunatic that

1:02:32.680 --> 1:02:36.200
<v Speaker 1>was exploited by the slimiest lawyer in America, with the

1:02:36.240 --> 1:02:41.640
<v Speaker 1>possible exception of Michael Cohen Abanati, who, let's not forget

1:02:41.760 --> 1:02:44.360
<v Speaker 1>Democrats were talking about how he should run for president

1:02:44.400 --> 1:02:46.800
<v Speaker 1>at one point. That was a thing that was being

1:02:46.840 --> 1:02:48.960
<v Speaker 1>talked about by all of the analysts at sea in

1:02:48.960 --> 1:02:51.520
<v Speaker 1>any other places that Abanati do. Do you remember that

1:02:51.800 --> 1:02:55.040
<v Speaker 1>presidential material? Oh yeah, Politico had him on the cover.

1:02:55.720 --> 1:03:03.000
<v Speaker 1>That's right, total total scum, disgusting. But just remember this

1:03:03.200 --> 1:03:06.120
<v Speaker 1>Vanessa Tyson. There's nothing about her story that doesn't add up.

1:03:06.760 --> 1:03:09.439
<v Speaker 1>There is nothing about the other accuser that has been

1:03:09.440 --> 1:03:12.520
<v Speaker 1>flagged as as you know, the other accusers aren't saying

1:03:12.640 --> 1:03:14.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't know where it happened. I don't know when

1:03:14.640 --> 1:03:16.760
<v Speaker 1>it happened. I don't know how it happened. I just

1:03:16.800 --> 1:03:18.640
<v Speaker 1>know it's this guy that the whole country on the

1:03:18.720 --> 1:03:23.640
<v Speaker 1>left wants to destroy. That was Blasi Ford. This time around,

1:03:23.760 --> 1:03:26.560
<v Speaker 1>it's well, you know, let's just not talk about it.

1:03:26.600 --> 1:03:31.479
<v Speaker 1>And that's but that's how real bias works. They can't

1:03:31.520 --> 1:03:35.120
<v Speaker 1>present you necessarily with completely fake stuff. So what they

1:03:35.240 --> 1:03:37.760
<v Speaker 1>do because that would be self defeating. It's not because

1:03:37.760 --> 1:03:40.240
<v Speaker 1>they're above it, although sometimes they do fake stuff. A

1:03:40.240 --> 1:03:42.400
<v Speaker 1>BuzzFeed story. I mean sometimes they'll run with it. So

1:03:42.400 --> 1:03:46.960
<v Speaker 1>what they do is they make very clear choices about

1:03:47.040 --> 1:03:49.520
<v Speaker 1>how much focused to give something, whether to talk about

1:03:49.560 --> 1:03:51.840
<v Speaker 1>an issue or not, whether to put it on TV

1:03:52.040 --> 1:03:56.520
<v Speaker 1>or not, And that is how they try to shape

1:03:56.520 --> 1:04:01.120
<v Speaker 1>the conversation toward the the laft and towards you know,

1:04:01.360 --> 1:04:07.520
<v Speaker 1>the progressive status ideology that the media is overwhelmingly supportive of.

1:04:08.760 --> 1:04:10.640
<v Speaker 1>But you will not. Oh, by the way, why won't

1:04:10.640 --> 1:04:13.120
<v Speaker 1>they Why won't there be any resignations? Oh, they told

1:04:13.200 --> 1:04:15.440
<v Speaker 1>us why there won't be any resignations? Play clip one.

1:04:16.440 --> 1:04:19.400
<v Speaker 1>You know, Attorney General Herring, who you just brought up,

1:04:19.440 --> 1:04:23.360
<v Speaker 1>also admitted to having Warren blackface at one point. If

1:04:23.400 --> 1:04:27.800
<v Speaker 1>he resigns, the next in line is a Republican senex

1:04:27.880 --> 1:04:29.880
<v Speaker 1>will look at this and say, the calculus to not

1:04:29.920 --> 1:04:33.920
<v Speaker 1>be as harsh on the Attorney General is influenced by that. Yeah,

1:04:33.960 --> 1:04:36.040
<v Speaker 1>but I don't think that's actually true. There are senex

1:04:36.120 --> 1:04:38.720
<v Speaker 1>to say this is about the next election, but I

1:04:38.720 --> 1:04:41.640
<v Speaker 1>think it's more about values. We would know from it.

1:04:43.000 --> 1:04:47.240
<v Speaker 1>That was cute, though. No, he shouldn't resign because Democrats

1:04:47.360 --> 1:04:49.360
<v Speaker 1>want power, and that is the only reason that they're

1:04:49.360 --> 1:04:51.960
<v Speaker 1>not calling for his resignation because he's a Democrat. We'll

1:04:52.000 --> 1:04:55.600
<v Speaker 1>be right back. Is Trump a racist because he put

1:04:55.680 --> 1:05:01.320
<v Speaker 1>the word trail in all caps? Ex guests, friend of mine,

1:05:01.680 --> 1:05:06.360
<v Speaker 1>very witty, very talented fellow, mister Michael Malice tackles this issue.

1:05:06.360 --> 1:05:08.600
<v Speaker 1>In fact, he got right in the middle of this issue.

1:05:08.680 --> 1:05:13.120
<v Speaker 1>He was in the center of the barroom brawl over

1:05:13.360 --> 1:05:17.840
<v Speaker 1>trail and Warren and Trump and oh my, he joins

1:05:17.960 --> 1:05:21.960
<v Speaker 1>us now. He is the host of Nightshade and you're welcome.

1:05:22.080 --> 1:05:27.040
<v Speaker 1>Also author of Dear Reader, the unauthorized biography of Kim

1:05:27.320 --> 1:05:30.160
<v Speaker 1>jung Ill. Thank you so much, my friend. Good to

1:05:30.200 --> 1:05:32.400
<v Speaker 1>have you back. Oh, it's great to be here. Buck.

1:05:32.480 --> 1:05:35.840
<v Speaker 1>All right, so tell folks what happened. Well. President Trump,

1:05:35.880 --> 1:05:38.640
<v Speaker 1>as I'm sure most people heard, had a pretty funny

1:05:38.640 --> 1:05:42.720
<v Speaker 1>tweet directed Elizabeth Warren making fun of her, and he

1:05:42.880 --> 1:05:46.080
<v Speaker 1>ended the tweet by saying, I look forward to seeing

1:05:46.080 --> 1:05:49.400
<v Speaker 1>you on the trail. Trail was all in caps, and

1:05:49.520 --> 1:05:52.880
<v Speaker 1>many people took this, and I think unambiguously as a

1:05:52.920 --> 1:05:55.840
<v Speaker 1>reference to the Trail of Tears, which is when many

1:05:55.920 --> 1:05:58.480
<v Speaker 1>Native Americans were forced to walk a long distance with

1:05:58.600 --> 1:06:00.920
<v Speaker 1>many people who died along the way, and this was

1:06:00.960 --> 1:06:06.560
<v Speaker 1>poking fun at her lies about her Native American heritage. Now,

1:06:06.760 --> 1:06:08.680
<v Speaker 1>as soon as he tweeted that this is this is

1:06:08.680 --> 1:06:11.080
<v Speaker 1>what's kind of funny A long time. I don't know

1:06:11.120 --> 1:06:14.440
<v Speaker 1>about your Twitter strategy. I would quote someone as a reply.

1:06:14.960 --> 1:06:18.000
<v Speaker 1>I thought to myself last seek, what will happen if

1:06:18.000 --> 1:06:20.480
<v Speaker 1>I just reply to someone immediately and it's a big account.

1:06:20.840 --> 1:06:25.120
<v Speaker 1>Well what ended up happening is Donald Trump Junior screencapped

1:06:25.240 --> 1:06:27.960
<v Speaker 1>that whole exchange me and Trump put it on his

1:06:28.040 --> 1:06:32.080
<v Speaker 1>Instagram and just wrote I love my president savage with

1:06:32.200 --> 1:06:34.560
<v Speaker 1>three exclamations. Wait, but what what what? What did you

1:06:34.640 --> 1:06:39.920
<v Speaker 1>write though? Oh, I'm sorry, I wrote the Native American

1:06:39.960 --> 1:06:45.120
<v Speaker 1>genocide continues with another murder from our president. He screencapped

1:06:45.120 --> 1:06:48.440
<v Speaker 1>that he wrote savage. Now, people took that savage to

1:06:48.480 --> 1:06:51.720
<v Speaker 1>be racist as well. That's a very common internet terms

1:06:51.800 --> 1:06:54.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure you've used as well, just like saying awesome.

1:06:54.560 --> 1:06:56.320
<v Speaker 1>You know, awesome has a religious meeting, if you want

1:06:56.320 --> 1:06:58.480
<v Speaker 1>to be literal about it. When people say awesome, they're

1:06:58.480 --> 1:07:02.040
<v Speaker 1>not saying divine or something all inspiring. They just mean cool,

1:07:03.520 --> 1:07:08.080
<v Speaker 1>all heck brook loose, you know, people, Because as soon

1:07:08.280 --> 1:07:13.160
<v Speaker 1>as Trump does something that's outside the bounds of what

1:07:13.320 --> 1:07:17.680
<v Speaker 1>has been defined as decent that gives so many people

1:07:17.760 --> 1:07:20.880
<v Speaker 1>an excuse and a reason to lose their minds. And

1:07:20.920 --> 1:07:24.840
<v Speaker 1>the response was exactly the response to what one would

1:07:24.840 --> 1:07:27.160
<v Speaker 1>think would be a far more serious issue, which was

1:07:27.360 --> 1:07:30.560
<v Speaker 1>the supposed separation of children from their parents at the

1:07:30.640 --> 1:07:36.560
<v Speaker 1>border not that long ago. And some folks out there CNN,

1:07:36.760 --> 1:07:41.120
<v Speaker 1>a particularly sanctimonious CNN host, said that the joke was racist, right,

1:07:41.640 --> 1:07:47.360
<v Speaker 1>blatant racism. Jake Jake Tapper took a took a junior

1:07:47.440 --> 1:07:51.480
<v Speaker 1>screencap with my name and my picture and my little

1:07:51.520 --> 1:07:54.600
<v Speaker 1>blue verified checkmark which I like so much, and wrote,

1:07:55.080 --> 1:07:58.200
<v Speaker 1>look what happened here? Trump's has a racist tweet, Someone

1:07:58.920 --> 1:08:02.840
<v Speaker 1>tweets and degrees, and then Junior adds more racism. And

1:08:02.920 --> 1:08:05.000
<v Speaker 1>the point is, I don't expect Jake Tapper to know

1:08:05.040 --> 1:08:06.480
<v Speaker 1>who I am. I don't expect anyway with me who

1:08:06.480 --> 1:08:09.120
<v Speaker 1>I am. But if you're a reporter and you're quoting

1:08:09.160 --> 1:08:13.120
<v Speaker 1>someone and you're saying that they're being blatantly racist, maybe

1:08:13.840 --> 1:08:16.920
<v Speaker 1>a little background and explanation to the audience is called for,

1:08:17.479 --> 1:08:20.720
<v Speaker 1>because that's your job. Because for all intents and purposes,

1:08:21.000 --> 1:08:23.360
<v Speaker 1>I could be a Native American, or I could have

1:08:23.400 --> 1:08:27.720
<v Speaker 1>been quoting somebody else or infinite things. So it's amazing.

1:08:27.720 --> 1:08:29.479
<v Speaker 1>And the thing is, if I were just an average

1:08:29.520 --> 1:08:31.960
<v Speaker 1>citizen and he's like, Okay, this person doesn't matter, which

1:08:32.000 --> 1:08:34.120
<v Speaker 1>is fair, then he should have blurred out my name

1:08:34.160 --> 1:08:37.200
<v Speaker 1>in the face, right because otherwise he's saying this random

1:08:37.200 --> 1:08:39.599
<v Speaker 1>person is a blatant racist, that's calling for dog pile. Well,

1:08:39.600 --> 1:08:42.599
<v Speaker 1>as you know, CNN actually likes to docks or threatened

1:08:42.600 --> 1:08:45.840
<v Speaker 1>to docks, just folks that get on the wrong side

1:08:45.840 --> 1:08:47.600
<v Speaker 1>of them eye if they're not public figures, so that

1:08:47.680 --> 1:08:48.960
<v Speaker 1>that's kind of the way they do business over there.

1:08:49.000 --> 1:08:51.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's it's a trash bag organization now. Unfortunately,

1:08:52.600 --> 1:08:54.479
<v Speaker 1>but I thought, you know, you made a really you

1:08:54.520 --> 1:08:57.320
<v Speaker 1>wrote a piece in The Federalist on federalist dot com

1:08:57.360 --> 1:08:59.040
<v Speaker 1>that called my attention. I thought you made a really

1:08:59.040 --> 1:09:02.680
<v Speaker 1>important point, which is that quote previously the rules. The

1:09:02.760 --> 1:09:06.719
<v Speaker 1>rules are, if it's your team, provide context and nuance

1:09:06.760 --> 1:09:10.719
<v Speaker 1>and assume best intentions. If it's their team, take everything

1:09:10.760 --> 1:09:12.599
<v Speaker 1>at face value in such a way as to make

1:09:12.640 --> 1:09:15.680
<v Speaker 1>them seem to be the acme of awfulness. The fact

1:09:15.720 --> 1:09:18.040
<v Speaker 1>that I was tweeting alongside Trump must mean that I'm

1:09:18.080 --> 1:09:21.200
<v Speaker 1>on their team. Yeah, which is interesting because in fact

1:09:21.560 --> 1:09:25.600
<v Speaker 1>I find your analysis and your wit to be interesting.

1:09:25.640 --> 1:09:31.040
<v Speaker 1>But you are an anarchist. You're not actually conservatives. My

1:09:31.160 --> 1:09:34.559
<v Speaker 1>upcoming book trash as conservatives every chance I get, because

1:09:34.600 --> 1:09:36.000
<v Speaker 1>I think, and I'll give you a reason why that

1:09:36.040 --> 1:09:38.280
<v Speaker 1>you agree with you and Molly hemingware to the best

1:09:38.280 --> 1:09:42.839
<v Speaker 1>conservatisms issue. I think too many conservatives are completely blind

1:09:43.280 --> 1:09:48.080
<v Speaker 1>to just how malevolent the press is. Conservatives, by their nature,

1:09:48.760 --> 1:09:52.080
<v Speaker 1>and this is an essential element of conservatism, tend to

1:09:52.120 --> 1:09:55.040
<v Speaker 1>believe that that what we have can be fixed. If

1:09:55.040 --> 1:09:57.080
<v Speaker 1>it's been around for a long time, there must be

1:09:57.120 --> 1:09:58.679
<v Speaker 1>something to it. It It can be fixed for a reason.

1:09:59.120 --> 1:10:02.200
<v Speaker 1>And it's getting to the point where many conservatives view

1:10:02.280 --> 1:10:05.040
<v Speaker 1>Molly some others. I think the Kavanaugh stuff you started

1:10:05.080 --> 1:10:07.519
<v Speaker 1>to put you guys to the top. I realized these

1:10:07.560 --> 1:10:11.160
<v Speaker 1>aren't mistakes that the press is making. This is far

1:10:11.280 --> 1:10:14.160
<v Speaker 1>deeper than they like the Democrats. If you're talking to

1:10:14.200 --> 1:10:16.840
<v Speaker 1>someone who just likes Democrats, who cares they have their

1:10:16.840 --> 1:10:20.519
<v Speaker 1>point Bee that's valid. This is far more malevolent and

1:10:20.640 --> 1:10:25.040
<v Speaker 1>pernicious than that. And I don't think that they are redeemable.

1:10:25.320 --> 1:10:28.640
<v Speaker 1>This system well, I absolutely agree it and your analysis

1:10:28.680 --> 1:10:32.720
<v Speaker 1>as a stute, because I did see what happened to Kavanaugh. That,

1:10:32.800 --> 1:10:35.280
<v Speaker 1>in terms of what the media did to Kavanaugh and

1:10:35.320 --> 1:10:38.400
<v Speaker 1>what they were attempting to do to Kavanaugh, was in

1:10:38.560 --> 1:10:42.719
<v Speaker 1>my view, not just a declaration of war on our

1:10:42.720 --> 1:10:47.160
<v Speaker 1>whole system of presumption of innocence and due process, but

1:10:47.240 --> 1:10:49.840
<v Speaker 1>a declaration of war on decency itself. And the press

1:10:50.000 --> 1:10:51.960
<v Speaker 1>was giddy over it, and I thought it was the

1:10:51.960 --> 1:10:54.040
<v Speaker 1>most It was really the most disgusting thing I've seen

1:10:55.240 --> 1:10:57.280
<v Speaker 1>in a very very long time. I mean, I could

1:10:57.320 --> 1:10:59.000
<v Speaker 1>say probably even my whole life in some ways, in

1:10:59.120 --> 1:11:01.599
<v Speaker 1>terms of terms of press actions, I think the press

1:11:01.600 --> 1:11:04.479
<v Speaker 1>are worse on capital anything I've ever seen. But I

1:11:04.520 --> 1:11:07.240
<v Speaker 1>just think you know your point about go ahead. If

1:11:07.320 --> 1:11:09.360
<v Speaker 1>they if they believed what they were saying, why have

1:11:09.439 --> 1:11:11.880
<v Speaker 1>they stopped saying it? If all these things are true,

1:11:12.080 --> 1:11:13.920
<v Speaker 1>we have this horrible person in the Supreme Court, why

1:11:13.920 --> 1:11:15.800
<v Speaker 1>would you stop talking about it. They haven't stopped talking

1:11:15.800 --> 1:11:18.080
<v Speaker 1>about Trump and his supposed mystique from four years ago.

1:11:18.160 --> 1:11:20.519
<v Speaker 1>They dropped it like a hot potato because clearly it

1:11:20.600 --> 1:11:22.719
<v Speaker 1>was a mean sinand for them, and once they lost,

1:11:22.720 --> 1:11:25.519
<v Speaker 1>they were moving on something else. It was never sincere.

1:11:26.080 --> 1:11:27.960
<v Speaker 1>By the way, since you got since you waited on

1:11:28.000 --> 1:11:31.080
<v Speaker 1>the Elizabeth Warren thing, where do you think this goes

1:11:31.120 --> 1:11:33.760
<v Speaker 1>for her? I get the sense of Elizabeth Warren just

1:11:33.800 --> 1:11:37.639
<v Speaker 1>can't stop digging, and people are going to make Native

1:11:37.640 --> 1:11:41.240
<v Speaker 1>American jokes and puns and everything for the entirety of

1:11:41.240 --> 1:11:44.240
<v Speaker 1>her effort to run for the presidency. And they're right too.

1:11:45.160 --> 1:11:47.400
<v Speaker 1>And I'll give you some more points that as I

1:11:47.400 --> 1:11:52.240
<v Speaker 1>said this in the article, if Trump had literally killed her,

1:11:53.080 --> 1:11:56.080
<v Speaker 1>that wouldn't be part of the Native American genocide. If

1:11:56.080 --> 1:11:59.080
<v Speaker 1>he had literally killed her and she was actually Native American,

1:11:59.320 --> 1:12:02.360
<v Speaker 1>it wouldn't be the Native American genocide. If I, as

1:12:02.360 --> 1:12:06.280
<v Speaker 1>a Jewish person, were shot today at Auschwitz, that wouldn't

1:12:06.280 --> 1:12:09.439
<v Speaker 1>be make me a Holocaust survivor right, So to tie

1:12:09.479 --> 1:12:13.160
<v Speaker 1>in someone who has no Native American blood, who And

1:12:13.240 --> 1:12:16.360
<v Speaker 1>here's the other thing they will tell you you read articles.

1:12:16.520 --> 1:12:21.000
<v Speaker 1>She never leveraged this to further her career. She never ever, ever,

1:12:21.040 --> 1:12:24.000
<v Speaker 1>ever leveraged this. Right, They say this her current job,

1:12:24.560 --> 1:12:27.559
<v Speaker 1>her current job as senator. In twenty twelve, on the

1:12:27.600 --> 1:12:31.360
<v Speaker 1>campaign trail, she was talking about she would be the

1:12:31.439 --> 1:12:35.480
<v Speaker 1>first person with Native American heritage in the Senate from Massachusetts.

1:12:35.520 --> 1:12:38.800
<v Speaker 1>She was positioning herself as an affirmative action higher, a

1:12:38.960 --> 1:12:41.559
<v Speaker 1>diversity higher, and even to this day the job she

1:12:41.600 --> 1:12:45.320
<v Speaker 1>has now she was exploiting this. So it's not about Okay,

1:12:45.360 --> 1:12:48.200
<v Speaker 1>maybe it was an innocent mistake. Let's pretend that that's

1:12:48.200 --> 1:12:51.920
<v Speaker 1>the case. The point is she did exploit that, at

1:12:52.000 --> 1:12:56.000
<v Speaker 1>best innocent mistake to further her career. Michael Malice, everybody

1:13:28.240 --> 1:13:32.400
<v Speaker 1>left wing ideologues these days. The major Silicon Valley platforms

1:14:26.040 --> 1:14:31.720
<v Speaker 1>has no place in the United States Congress and Congressman

1:14:31.800 --> 1:14:37.960
<v Speaker 1>Omar is terrible what she said, and I think she

1:14:38.000 --> 1:14:42.839
<v Speaker 1>should either resign from Congress or she should certainly resign

1:14:43.000 --> 1:14:49.080
<v Speaker 1>from the House Foreign Affairs Committee. Representative Ilhan Omar not

1:14:49.280 --> 1:14:52.679
<v Speaker 1>yet out of hot water here for her comments about

1:14:52.720 --> 1:14:56.559
<v Speaker 1>how APAC has a particularly strong hand in our foreign

1:14:56.560 --> 1:15:02.120
<v Speaker 1>policy because it's all about the Benjamin's she has. She

1:15:02.160 --> 1:15:05.560
<v Speaker 1>has apologized, but only sort of apologized. People on the

1:15:05.640 --> 1:15:08.160
<v Speaker 1>left are saying, well, hold on, there's a legitimate foreign

1:15:08.200 --> 1:15:10.200
<v Speaker 1>policy discussion we had here. A lot of other people

1:15:10.200 --> 1:15:12.519
<v Speaker 1>are saying, oh, this is actually just anti semitism and

1:15:12.560 --> 1:15:14.720
<v Speaker 1>it's getting a real foothold in the left. I want

1:15:14.720 --> 1:15:17.120
<v Speaker 1>to talk about this and also Iran and North Korea

1:15:17.280 --> 1:15:20.639
<v Speaker 1>some other hot topics with our next guest, Fred Flights.

1:15:20.720 --> 1:15:23.360
<v Speaker 1>Fred was a CI analyst like yours, truly, he was

1:15:23.360 --> 1:15:26.439
<v Speaker 1>there for nineteen years. He was NSC chief of staff.

1:15:26.479 --> 1:15:28.679
<v Speaker 1>Recently in the Trump administration. Now he was the president

1:15:28.760 --> 1:15:31.360
<v Speaker 1>and CEO of the Center for Security Policy. Fred. Great

1:15:31.360 --> 1:15:33.320
<v Speaker 1>to have you on, sir. Good to be here, sir.

1:15:33.800 --> 1:15:36.200
<v Speaker 1>So let's just start with Omar first, and do you

1:15:36.200 --> 1:15:38.360
<v Speaker 1>think that she should resign? And do you think that

1:15:38.840 --> 1:15:42.439
<v Speaker 1>she's an outlier or is she indicative of a trend

1:15:42.479 --> 1:15:48.120
<v Speaker 1>toward anti Israel and really more pointedly anti Jewish thinking

1:15:48.200 --> 1:15:52.320
<v Speaker 1>along the foreign policy left. I think it is anti

1:15:52.400 --> 1:15:54.880
<v Speaker 1>Jewish and anti Israel thinking on the fig policy left

1:15:54.960 --> 1:15:58.000
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't be on the foreign Affairs Committee. This isn't just

1:15:58.160 --> 1:16:02.040
<v Speaker 1>anti Semitism, this is a real hatred of Israel. This

1:16:02.120 --> 1:16:05.800
<v Speaker 1>is a new effort to delegitimize Israel, to call for

1:16:05.840 --> 1:16:09.320
<v Speaker 1>its destruction, to flood it with Palestinians. This is like

1:16:09.400 --> 1:16:13.639
<v Speaker 1>the latest fake attack by the Palestines and the left

1:16:14.000 --> 1:16:18.240
<v Speaker 1>to ruin American support for Israel and to de legitimizes

1:16:18.520 --> 1:16:21.479
<v Speaker 1>on the national stage. That's why this is so dangerous.

1:16:21.479 --> 1:16:25.840
<v Speaker 1>And sometimes I do interviews on left wing television shows

1:16:25.960 --> 1:16:29.360
<v Speaker 1>and you know, I have a name sounds like it's yours.

1:16:29.439 --> 1:16:33.799
<v Speaker 1>You would believe the anti Semitic attacks against me whatever

1:16:33.840 --> 1:16:36.280
<v Speaker 1>I defend Israel. There's something going on in the left

1:16:36.320 --> 1:16:39.320
<v Speaker 1>and it's very dangerous and that's ugly. So she should

1:16:39.360 --> 1:16:41.439
<v Speaker 1>definitely be taking off the House Point Affairs Committee. You

1:16:41.479 --> 1:16:45.080
<v Speaker 1>would agree with that. I mean, what was Nancy Pelosi thinking,

1:16:45.080 --> 1:16:46.519
<v Speaker 1>you know what? I think she thought she was going

1:16:46.560 --> 1:16:49.760
<v Speaker 1>to stick at the President Trump because of his you know,

1:16:49.880 --> 1:16:54.520
<v Speaker 1>basically Trump has said things about Muslims that that Democrats

1:16:54.520 --> 1:16:57.679
<v Speaker 1>find offensive. So Pelosi put this woman on there. But frankly,

1:16:57.680 --> 1:17:00.920
<v Speaker 1>she was playing with fire because this woman is just

1:17:01.040 --> 1:17:05.080
<v Speaker 1>not ready for prime time and has said repeated things

1:17:05.120 --> 1:17:08.320
<v Speaker 1>that are just really ugly in pretty clearly anti semitic.

1:17:08.840 --> 1:17:11.479
<v Speaker 1>Now let's move on to North Korea. We have this

1:17:11.640 --> 1:17:16.240
<v Speaker 1>upcoming summit, a second summit between President Trump and North

1:17:16.320 --> 1:17:21.400
<v Speaker 1>Korean leadership Kim Jong Un. People on both sides obviously

1:17:21.479 --> 1:17:23.720
<v Speaker 1>view this very differently. For the most part, the sum

1:17:23.720 --> 1:17:26.160
<v Speaker 1>are saying that this is all this is a lot

1:17:26.240 --> 1:17:28.040
<v Speaker 1>of a lot of nothing. Others are saying, well, we've

1:17:28.080 --> 1:17:30.519
<v Speaker 1>had real progress. Just I know that you think that

1:17:30.560 --> 1:17:32.599
<v Speaker 1>the President's made real progress. You were at the NSC

1:17:32.720 --> 1:17:34.799
<v Speaker 1>when he was engaged in some of these North Korea talks.

1:17:35.200 --> 1:17:37.360
<v Speaker 1>Just tell us how, I mean, how should we assess this?

1:17:37.439 --> 1:17:39.599
<v Speaker 1>How should we see this? Because clearly you know we're

1:17:39.640 --> 1:17:41.920
<v Speaker 1>not in a great spot with North Korea. But are

1:17:41.960 --> 1:17:44.920
<v Speaker 1>we in a better spot? Well, we've at least paused

1:17:44.920 --> 1:17:47.720
<v Speaker 1>the North Korean nuclear missile progress. There haven't been any

1:17:47.720 --> 1:17:52.000
<v Speaker 1>test since late twenty seventeen. That's significant. There were eighty

1:17:52.160 --> 1:17:56.599
<v Speaker 1>missile tests during the administration. There were four nuclear tests

1:17:56.680 --> 1:17:59.480
<v Speaker 1>twenty missile tests during the first year of the Trump administration.

1:18:00.120 --> 1:18:02.960
<v Speaker 1>This is significant, but look, it could be just a

1:18:03.080 --> 1:18:05.439
<v Speaker 1>blip in history unless there's more. The North Koreans have

1:18:05.479 --> 1:18:08.760
<v Speaker 1>been dragging in their feat. The purpose in the negotiations,

1:18:08.800 --> 1:18:11.479
<v Speaker 1>the purpose of the summit is to get the North

1:18:11.560 --> 1:18:15.600
<v Speaker 1>Koreans to get Leader Kim to agree to basically concrete

1:18:15.640 --> 1:18:18.880
<v Speaker 1>deliverables on how are they going to start implementing what

1:18:19.040 --> 1:18:22.400
<v Speaker 1>Kim agreed to with the last summit in Singapore. So

1:18:22.720 --> 1:18:24.840
<v Speaker 1>how do we do that? I mean, what's what's then

1:18:24.880 --> 1:18:28.800
<v Speaker 1>the way forward? Well, just a meeting between the two

1:18:28.880 --> 1:18:33.120
<v Speaker 1>leaders as a concession, it legitimizes the regime. And we're

1:18:33.160 --> 1:18:36.679
<v Speaker 1>just hoping that this rapport that the President has with Kim,

1:18:36.680 --> 1:18:39.479
<v Speaker 1>and we know he's been bututtering him up lately in

1:18:40.200 --> 1:18:44.160
<v Speaker 1>with various tweets that the President can use as negotiation

1:18:44.280 --> 1:18:46.960
<v Speaker 1>skills to get Kim to agree to at least some

1:18:47.040 --> 1:18:55.320
<v Speaker 1>preliminary preliminary investigation letting inspectors into a military missile site

1:18:55.439 --> 1:18:58.439
<v Speaker 1>and a nuclear test site. Hopefully that will expand into

1:18:58.520 --> 1:19:01.840
<v Speaker 1>greater inspections. We also need to get a full and

1:19:02.000 --> 1:19:05.560
<v Speaker 1>thorough accounting of the Milk Queen w d A missile programs.

1:19:05.680 --> 1:19:07.519
<v Speaker 1>That's going to take more work, but they have to

1:19:07.520 --> 1:19:10.439
<v Speaker 1>start working on that too. Now, tell me about where

1:19:10.479 --> 1:19:13.439
<v Speaker 1>we should where we should be viewing how we should

1:19:13.520 --> 1:19:16.920
<v Speaker 1>view the Iran deal which I know a lot of

1:19:16.960 --> 1:19:20.960
<v Speaker 1>people that were part of the Obama administration get very

1:19:21.040 --> 1:19:24.120
<v Speaker 1>upset about this because they think that it's tearing apart

1:19:24.200 --> 1:19:27.240
<v Speaker 1>Obama's foreign policy legacy. Obviously, you and I don't think

1:19:27.240 --> 1:19:29.640
<v Speaker 1>there's much of a legacy to tear apart. But you

1:19:29.680 --> 1:19:33.560
<v Speaker 1>know that you hear things like they're Iran's violating the deal. No,

1:19:33.640 --> 1:19:35.559
<v Speaker 1>they're not violing the deal, or you know the deal

1:19:35.600 --> 1:19:39.000
<v Speaker 1>is too soft, and that's the problems. What has President

1:19:39.000 --> 1:19:42.320
<v Speaker 1>Trump done in the Iran deal? And or about the

1:19:42.360 --> 1:19:43.840
<v Speaker 1>Iran deal? I know we're out of it, but what

1:19:43.880 --> 1:19:47.160
<v Speaker 1>does that mean and what comes next? Well? I wrote

1:19:47.160 --> 1:19:50.160
<v Speaker 1>a peace in National View recently that's said that eight

1:19:50.160 --> 1:19:52.800
<v Speaker 1>months later, the presidents with twelve from the Iran Deal

1:19:52.840 --> 1:19:56.040
<v Speaker 1>has been a tremendous policy success. We now know that

1:19:56.080 --> 1:19:58.839
<v Speaker 1>the deal was a thought and run was continuing weapons

1:19:58.880 --> 1:20:02.160
<v Speaker 1>related activities. Albadu was an effect by rich and uranium,

1:20:02.200 --> 1:20:05.200
<v Speaker 1>and Iran cheated. We know the Iranians cheated based on

1:20:05.360 --> 1:20:09.320
<v Speaker 1>documents that the Israeli sold from the Runnings early last

1:20:09.360 --> 1:20:13.559
<v Speaker 1>year that showed a secret nuclear site that Iran refused

1:20:13.560 --> 1:20:17.679
<v Speaker 1>to declare, a warehouse ful of nuclear equipment and phizzile

1:20:17.840 --> 1:20:21.120
<v Speaker 1>material that Iran started to empty out once the once

1:20:21.160 --> 1:20:24.200
<v Speaker 1>they found out that these really stole their documents. It

1:20:24.240 --> 1:20:26.720
<v Speaker 1>was a fraud through and through. It was basically a

1:20:26.800 --> 1:20:29.880
<v Speaker 1>legacy agreement, so the abodministration could say they had an

1:20:29.880 --> 1:20:33.320
<v Speaker 1>agreement with Iran. The trumph And administration throw this out.

1:20:33.360 --> 1:20:36.680
<v Speaker 1>Iran is increasingly isolated. We need to do now is

1:20:36.680 --> 1:20:41.120
<v Speaker 1>to focus on denying Iran transfers of nuclear missile technology

1:20:41.720 --> 1:20:45.360
<v Speaker 1>and get all of our allies, especially regional allies who

1:20:45.400 --> 1:20:48.320
<v Speaker 1>were excluded from the Iran du Let's get them lined

1:20:48.400 --> 1:20:52.080
<v Speaker 1>up on the United policy to deal with all of

1:20:52.120 --> 1:20:56.519
<v Speaker 1>the threats posed by Iran. Now, on the Mid East

1:20:56.560 --> 1:20:59.160
<v Speaker 1>side of all this, I guess Mid East and South Asia,

1:21:00.040 --> 1:21:03.360
<v Speaker 1>where do you come down on the discussions recently about

1:21:03.520 --> 1:21:06.560
<v Speaker 1>one US troop presence in Syria and then also a

1:21:07.120 --> 1:21:09.320
<v Speaker 1>draw down, a plan draw down. I believe now in

1:21:09.320 --> 1:21:12.280
<v Speaker 1>Afghanistan a possible peace dealing with the Taliban. Let's start

1:21:12.320 --> 1:21:17.680
<v Speaker 1>with Syria first. How's that going well? The announcement of

1:21:17.720 --> 1:21:20.760
<v Speaker 1>the President made in December was adjusted to pull our

1:21:20.840 --> 1:21:23.680
<v Speaker 1>troops out slower. He listened to his advice as he

1:21:23.800 --> 1:21:27.080
<v Speaker 1>listened to leaders in the region who said that you

1:21:27.120 --> 1:21:29.800
<v Speaker 1>can't pull our troops out that quickly. But I think

1:21:29.840 --> 1:21:32.920
<v Speaker 1>on issues like Syria and Afghanistan, the President is conflicted.

1:21:33.240 --> 1:21:36.320
<v Speaker 1>There are security interests, but he also does not believe

1:21:36.760 --> 1:21:40.560
<v Speaker 1>that US troops should be deployed to these areas indefinitely.

1:21:40.880 --> 1:21:43.040
<v Speaker 1>There's a lot of Americans who agree with that book.

1:21:43.120 --> 1:21:45.720
<v Speaker 1>They think that we've been in Afghanistan too long. The

1:21:45.760 --> 1:21:49.400
<v Speaker 1>New York Times recently ran a major editorial agreeing with Trump.

1:21:49.400 --> 1:21:51.400
<v Speaker 1>Who would have thought that it is time for US

1:21:51.400 --> 1:21:55.120
<v Speaker 1>to get out of Afghanistan. There is some indication there

1:21:55.160 --> 1:21:58.080
<v Speaker 1>are some indications that there's been progress and talks with

1:21:58.160 --> 1:22:01.000
<v Speaker 1>the Talibman that would allow us to start drawing down.

1:22:01.400 --> 1:22:03.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to hold my breath on that, but

1:22:03.120 --> 1:22:07.720
<v Speaker 1>I think there's some truth to that. So basically, it's

1:22:07.880 --> 1:22:10.240
<v Speaker 1>it's a trade off. The President wants to withdraw. He

1:22:10.280 --> 1:22:13.880
<v Speaker 1>doesn't think we should be in these areas indefinitely, Bud.

1:22:13.960 --> 1:22:17.640
<v Speaker 1>He knows his security concerns, So it's a struggle I

1:22:17.760 --> 1:22:21.679
<v Speaker 1>think within his own mind and with his advisors, who

1:22:21.720 --> 1:22:25.280
<v Speaker 1>have a variety of different perspectives. Now you and I

1:22:25.360 --> 1:22:28.879
<v Speaker 1>both come from the intelligence community, Fred, and there's obviously

1:22:28.920 --> 1:22:33.519
<v Speaker 1>been some very high level folks. I mean, I've I've

1:22:33.560 --> 1:22:37.280
<v Speaker 1>interviewed I've interviewed Clapper since he's been out, I've interviewed Hayden,

1:22:37.800 --> 1:22:40.960
<v Speaker 1>and I gotta tell you, Hayden in particular, I find

1:22:41.640 --> 1:22:44.439
<v Speaker 1>his conduct and his commentary about about the President, about

1:22:44.439 --> 1:22:48.960
<v Speaker 1>the administration to be beyond disappointing. One. I just wonder

1:22:49.080 --> 1:22:52.519
<v Speaker 1>what do you think the long term? What do you

1:22:52.520 --> 1:22:56.120
<v Speaker 1>think is there any long term damage from former Intel

1:22:56.200 --> 1:22:59.559
<v Speaker 1>chiefs coming out and just being partisan actors like they're

1:22:59.600 --> 1:23:02.559
<v Speaker 1>all auditioning for an MSNBC show all the time. And

1:23:02.600 --> 1:23:05.840
<v Speaker 1>then also do you think that there's still a lot

1:23:05.880 --> 1:23:07.800
<v Speaker 1>of that going on at the top levels inside the

1:23:07.800 --> 1:23:11.000
<v Speaker 1>community and that's and that it's hurting the presidents still? Well,

1:23:11.040 --> 1:23:13.240
<v Speaker 1>if you think Hayden is disappointing, what do you think

1:23:13.240 --> 1:23:15.160
<v Speaker 1>of John Brennan? Oh, I mean, he's I don't even

1:23:15.200 --> 1:23:17.559
<v Speaker 1>I mean, John Brennan probably should should be brought up

1:23:17.560 --> 1:23:19.679
<v Speaker 1>on charge. He's in a whole other category of awful.

1:23:19.680 --> 1:23:22.559
<v Speaker 1>But you're right, But you know, I'm friends with Mike Hayden.

1:23:22.600 --> 1:23:24.800
<v Speaker 1>I think he has gotten no ret line. Sometimes so

1:23:24.960 --> 1:23:27.640
<v Speaker 1>friendly Brennan is so bad. I don't even notice some

1:23:27.720 --> 1:23:29.680
<v Speaker 1>of the things that Hayden is saying. But you know,

1:23:29.720 --> 1:23:35.240
<v Speaker 1>you're right. Intelligence officials FORMACI directors used to be senior

1:23:35.320 --> 1:23:40.160
<v Speaker 1>statesman and ambassadors for the profession, and they stayed out

1:23:40.160 --> 1:23:43.519
<v Speaker 1>of politics. They were like you know, the gray beards

1:23:43.560 --> 1:23:48.040
<v Speaker 1>who would advise academia and presidents. A CURRENCYI director would

1:23:48.120 --> 1:23:51.040
<v Speaker 1>invite in all his predecessors and consult with them. They'd

1:23:51.040 --> 1:23:54.240
<v Speaker 1>come in quarterly for meetings. Of course, John Brennan doesn't

1:23:54.280 --> 1:23:56.479
<v Speaker 1>come into those meetings anymore because the President took his

1:23:56.560 --> 1:24:00.200
<v Speaker 1>clearance away, which I thought was a great move. That

1:24:00.240 --> 1:24:03.320
<v Speaker 1>we have to get back to the time where FORMERCI

1:24:03.439 --> 1:24:06.600
<v Speaker 1>directors they stay out of politics, they stay off MSNBC,

1:24:07.360 --> 1:24:09.680
<v Speaker 1>and you know they try to serve this country and

1:24:09.840 --> 1:24:14.360
<v Speaker 1>not being political hacks. And what are your Just just

1:24:14.520 --> 1:24:17.280
<v Speaker 1>one more thing for you here, fred As. We only

1:24:17.280 --> 1:24:19.280
<v Speaker 1>got about a minute. But as the Russian investigation scene

1:24:19.280 --> 1:24:21.519
<v Speaker 1>has been coming to a close, is it really going

1:24:21.560 --> 1:24:23.479
<v Speaker 1>to come to a close? It They're gonna drag on forever.

1:24:24.439 --> 1:24:27.120
<v Speaker 1>The Democrats will never coming to it will never come

1:24:27.160 --> 1:24:29.840
<v Speaker 1>to close to the Democrats. The Democrats in the House.

1:24:29.920 --> 1:24:32.479
<v Speaker 1>I think they're going to start this all over again,

1:24:32.720 --> 1:24:34.559
<v Speaker 1>even though I think the President is about to be

1:24:34.600 --> 1:24:38.719
<v Speaker 1>exonerated by the moloprobe. It's just it's always in politics.

1:24:38.720 --> 1:24:41.240
<v Speaker 1>There's no evidence of collusion. I didn't think it was

1:24:41.280 --> 1:24:44.479
<v Speaker 1>from the beginning, and I just think that this is

1:24:44.479 --> 1:24:46.479
<v Speaker 1>just going to go off forever and years from now,

1:24:46.520 --> 1:24:48.840
<v Speaker 1>the presidents out of office is starring into Democrats will

1:24:48.840 --> 1:24:51.040
<v Speaker 1>still keep claiming this collusion, even though they're never going

1:24:51.080 --> 1:24:53.280
<v Speaker 1>to find evidence a team. Fred is right because Fred

1:24:53.280 --> 1:24:56.519
<v Speaker 1>and I agree, So Fred, Fred is right on these

1:24:56.520 --> 1:24:59.120
<v Speaker 1>things because we see this the same way. Fred flights

1:24:59.160 --> 1:25:02.640

1:26:27.439 --> 1:26:32.559
<v Speaker 1>The economy is doing incredibly well. Numbers are really high,

1:26:32.720 --> 1:26:35.400
<v Speaker 1>really good. We have a big team of people, very

1:26:35.400 --> 1:26:39.360
<v Speaker 1>talented people over in China right now negotiating on the

1:26:39.640 --> 1:26:42.719
<v Speaker 1>China deal. It's going along very well. We'll see what happens,

1:26:42.760 --> 1:26:44.679
<v Speaker 1>but I think it's going along very well. They're showing

1:26:44.760 --> 1:26:48.479
<v Speaker 1>us tremendous respect and something which a lot of countries

1:26:48.520 --> 1:26:50.920
<v Speaker 1>didn't use to show the United States to showing us

1:26:50.960 --> 1:26:54.080
<v Speaker 1>respect now, big difference from the old days. I will

1:26:54.120 --> 1:26:57.800
<v Speaker 1>tell you that. So the deal with China is going

1:26:57.880 --> 1:27:02.519
<v Speaker 1>very well. The deal with China presence says going well.

1:27:02.520 --> 1:27:06.080
<v Speaker 1>But we might be in for a bit of a

1:27:06.200 --> 1:27:11.160
<v Speaker 1>delay here. There might be a pushback the March second

1:27:11.160 --> 1:27:15.000
<v Speaker 1>deadline that has been reported on a lot to reach

1:27:15.040 --> 1:27:21.839
<v Speaker 1>a trade deal with China might might get the old Kavo.

1:27:22.080 --> 1:27:23.960
<v Speaker 1>I might decide to push that aside for a little while.

1:27:24.920 --> 1:27:26.800
<v Speaker 1>The US is not supposed to put higher tariffs on

1:27:26.880 --> 1:27:29.439
<v Speaker 1>Chinese goods if the talks with Beijing are going well,

1:27:30.080 --> 1:27:32.479
<v Speaker 1>so we will have to see. It could increase tariffs

1:27:32.520 --> 1:27:34.719
<v Speaker 1>on two hundred billion dollars with Chinese goods to twenty

1:27:34.720 --> 1:27:37.320
<v Speaker 1>five percent from ten percent. And one thing that's really

1:27:37.360 --> 1:27:39.600
<v Speaker 1>been really interesting to see this all play out. I

1:27:39.760 --> 1:27:43.880
<v Speaker 1>just remember, because it wasn't long ago, I remember hearing

1:27:43.920 --> 1:27:49.000
<v Speaker 1>about how what Trump was doing was dangerous, what Trump

1:27:49.120 --> 1:27:52.439
<v Speaker 1>was doing was going to destroy the economy. All this stuff,

1:27:52.800 --> 1:27:56.240
<v Speaker 1>and here we are. Last year, the economy was good,

1:27:56.280 --> 1:27:58.920
<v Speaker 1>it wasn't. The stock market had a rough end of year,

1:27:59.000 --> 1:28:03.240
<v Speaker 1>for sure, but unemployments still very, very low. And the

1:28:03.280 --> 1:28:05.280
<v Speaker 1>only argument that I can hear people make right now

1:28:05.320 --> 1:28:08.640
<v Speaker 1>about What's happened as a result of Trump's overtures to

1:28:08.760 --> 1:28:11.599
<v Speaker 1>China has to do with it would have been even better,

1:28:11.760 --> 1:28:15.120
<v Speaker 1>but it hasn't been bad. And I would note that

1:28:15.160 --> 1:28:17.479
<v Speaker 1>the critics of Trump on trade and it has been

1:28:17.479 --> 1:28:21.640
<v Speaker 1>really bipartisan criticism. And I've tried to bring on experts

1:28:21.640 --> 1:28:24.559
<v Speaker 1>here and reflect expert opinion on trade that you're not

1:28:24.680 --> 1:28:28.599
<v Speaker 1>getting from the mainstream media. You're not getting from people

1:28:28.640 --> 1:28:32.479
<v Speaker 1>that like to just pair at the consensus that there

1:28:32.560 --> 1:28:36.599
<v Speaker 1>has been real headway made here on doing things on

1:28:36.640 --> 1:28:39.360
<v Speaker 1>trade that needed to be done, but that everybody seemed

1:28:39.360 --> 1:28:41.479
<v Speaker 1>to think we're crazy when Trump started to do them.

1:28:42.080 --> 1:28:44.360
<v Speaker 1>You know, now you have this, the US Mexico Canada

1:28:44.360 --> 1:28:47.680
<v Speaker 1>Trade Agreement, and people said, oh, you can't. NAFTA has

1:28:47.680 --> 1:28:50.439
<v Speaker 1>been the cornerstone of blah blah people get all excited

1:28:50.439 --> 1:28:53.559
<v Speaker 1>and all angry because it turns out NAFTA was signed

1:28:53.560 --> 1:28:55.680
<v Speaker 1>before the Internet era, so there was a lot of

1:28:56.280 --> 1:28:58.280
<v Speaker 1>a lot of stuff that needed to be updated and changed,

1:28:58.840 --> 1:29:01.320
<v Speaker 1>and there hasn't been some huge disruption in our trade

1:29:01.320 --> 1:29:06.880
<v Speaker 1>with Mexico or Canada and now on China. China had

1:29:06.920 --> 1:29:10.840
<v Speaker 1>a rough year last year, and it's always interesting to

1:29:10.880 --> 1:29:14.720
<v Speaker 1>see how people assess the Chinese market because it's a

1:29:14.720 --> 1:29:19.600
<v Speaker 1>bit opaque. There's a certain degree of not trusting the

1:29:19.680 --> 1:29:21.640
<v Speaker 1>numbers from the Chinese national government that a lot of

1:29:21.680 --> 1:29:25.600
<v Speaker 1>China watchers I know bring to bring to the situation.

1:29:26.200 --> 1:29:28.479
<v Speaker 1>But you know, their economy was getting hammered last year

1:29:28.560 --> 1:29:31.240
<v Speaker 1>and our economy was doing well. It's because Trump is

1:29:31.240 --> 1:29:34.040
<v Speaker 1>the first president in memory for me who comes along

1:29:34.080 --> 1:29:36.880
<v Speaker 1>and says, we're in a stronger position than China, and

1:29:36.960 --> 1:29:38.960
<v Speaker 1>China's pulling some nonsense. So we're going to get them

1:29:39.000 --> 1:29:42.720
<v Speaker 1>to stop doing the stuff that they've been doing. Intellectual

1:29:42.760 --> 1:29:46.799
<v Speaker 1>property theft, the predatory trade practices visa vi us companies

1:29:46.800 --> 1:29:48.719
<v Speaker 1>that try to base out of China for a while,

1:29:49.240 --> 1:29:53.680
<v Speaker 1>these cooperative corporate agreements that turn into just a siphoning

1:29:53.680 --> 1:29:57.040
<v Speaker 1>of US intellectual property into Chinese companies, all that stuff.

1:29:58.240 --> 1:30:01.679
<v Speaker 1>Trump is like, can't do this anymore. Got to figure

1:30:01.720 --> 1:30:04.760
<v Speaker 1>something out to stop it. And I'm not saying that

1:30:04.840 --> 1:30:06.760
<v Speaker 1>he is there yet. I'm not saying that it has

1:30:06.760 --> 1:30:12.080
<v Speaker 1>been perfect. But to be sure, President Trump has I think,

1:30:12.120 --> 1:30:15.760
<v Speaker 1>defied the critics so far, and on balance looks like

1:30:16.200 --> 1:30:18.760
<v Speaker 1>he knows some stuff that they certainly did not know.

1:30:19.560 --> 1:30:22.360
<v Speaker 1>He's aware of things that they were not aware of,

1:30:22.439 --> 1:30:25.000
<v Speaker 1>or at least he was able to see the situation

1:30:25.080 --> 1:30:28.360
<v Speaker 1>more clearly than they were because people were saying, oh,

1:30:28.439 --> 1:30:32.120
<v Speaker 1>so many of the more learned conservatives that I know

1:30:32.200 --> 1:30:34.720
<v Speaker 1>in the media, oh, free trade, and you say, well,

1:30:34.720 --> 1:30:36.599
<v Speaker 1>hold on a second, free trade is a great idea.

1:30:36.640 --> 1:30:39.720
<v Speaker 1>But this is like saying the answer to everything in

1:30:39.800 --> 1:30:42.400
<v Speaker 1>healthcare is just to say we need a free market

1:30:42.439 --> 1:30:46.200
<v Speaker 1>in healthcare. Okay, that's nice. Fifty percent of the healthcare

1:30:46.200 --> 1:30:50.120
<v Speaker 1>market has already government spending. So to say that the

1:30:50.200 --> 1:30:52.720
<v Speaker 1>answer is just a free market is to say, okay,

1:30:53.120 --> 1:30:55.720
<v Speaker 1>we're so far from a free market right now, and

1:30:55.720 --> 1:30:58.720
<v Speaker 1>in terms of our deal with and to pretend that

1:30:58.760 --> 1:31:01.080
<v Speaker 1>we're in a free market. If we change anything, we're

1:31:01.160 --> 1:31:03.920
<v Speaker 1>losing the free market. That is the root fallacy. Right.

1:31:04.360 --> 1:31:06.519
<v Speaker 1>It's one thing if I say, hey, we need to

1:31:06.520 --> 1:31:11.160
<v Speaker 1>make this change on healthcare and then people say, no, no, buck,

1:31:11.200 --> 1:31:14.679
<v Speaker 1>we can't because we need a free market based healthcare system.

1:31:14.720 --> 1:31:16.640
<v Speaker 1>I'd say, well, well, half the healthcare system is not

1:31:16.680 --> 1:31:19.639
<v Speaker 1>free market, and there's a tremendous amount of regulation. There

1:31:19.640 --> 1:31:23.080
<v Speaker 1>are reasons why drug prices are so high and government interventions.

1:31:23.080 --> 1:31:26.360
<v Speaker 1>So we don't have a free market in healthcare. We

1:31:26.400 --> 1:31:28.320
<v Speaker 1>can try to make it more free and I understand

1:31:28.320 --> 1:31:30.719
<v Speaker 1>that as a principle, but it's not an answer to everything.

1:31:30.720 --> 1:31:33.640
<v Speaker 1>Well just make it free market, okay, Well, how and

1:31:34.479 --> 1:31:38.720
<v Speaker 1>under what auspice is and how do we implement that idea?

1:31:39.000 --> 1:31:41.439
<v Speaker 1>Same thing with free trade. People said, oh, buck, no,

1:31:41.800 --> 1:31:44.120
<v Speaker 1>we need free trade with China. Okay, we don't have

1:31:44.240 --> 1:31:47.960
<v Speaker 1>free trade with China. China has tariffs, and China is

1:31:48.000 --> 1:31:50.799
<v Speaker 1>stealing intellectual property during all kinds of stuff. It's really bad.

1:31:51.680 --> 1:31:55.880
<v Speaker 1>So that's a part of this that I think Trump

1:31:55.960 --> 1:31:59.280
<v Speaker 1>has brought to the forefront, and he doesn't get a

1:31:59.320 --> 1:32:01.280
<v Speaker 1>lot of credit for it. I hope we do get

1:32:01.320 --> 1:32:02.960
<v Speaker 1>some kind of an agreement with China. I think that

1:32:02.960 --> 1:32:05.639
<v Speaker 1>could really be a boost the economy. Keep in mind,

1:32:05.640 --> 1:32:08.960
<v Speaker 1>also despite it, Mike, did you see that story yesterday

1:32:08.960 --> 1:32:10.920
<v Speaker 1>about how people are getting less in their tax refunds

1:32:10.960 --> 1:32:14.800
<v Speaker 1>And initially Democrats to borrow their word, they pounced on this, yes,

1:32:15.080 --> 1:32:17.800
<v Speaker 1>because they've kept more of their money, right, it was

1:32:17.840 --> 1:32:20.880
<v Speaker 1>comical they kept more money. But this is the year

1:32:20.960 --> 1:32:25.000
<v Speaker 1>that they will be keeping more money and people will

1:32:25.040 --> 1:32:27.760
<v Speaker 1>have more money to spend as a result of the

1:32:27.840 --> 1:32:30.240
<v Speaker 1>change in the withholding, And so I think we could

1:32:30.240 --> 1:32:33.639
<v Speaker 1>see some good stuff happening, some good stuff happening on

1:32:33.680 --> 1:32:36.439
<v Speaker 1>that front. I saw this story today. People always ask

1:32:36.520 --> 1:32:39.599
<v Speaker 1>me what there is to say about somebody who would

1:32:39.600 --> 1:32:43.960
<v Speaker 1>betray their country and spy for another country. And this

1:32:44.040 --> 1:32:47.720
<v Speaker 1>is a former US intel specialists has been charged with

1:32:47.800 --> 1:32:50.240
<v Speaker 1>spying for Iran. I haven't gotten too deep into the

1:32:50.240 --> 1:32:53.679
<v Speaker 1>details of it, but look, this is the insider threat.

1:32:54.280 --> 1:32:58.000
<v Speaker 1>People are exploited by our enemies and they betray the

1:32:58.040 --> 1:33:02.040
<v Speaker 1>greatest country ever known to man. Assuming this is true,

1:33:02.040 --> 1:33:04.320
<v Speaker 1>these are just allegations at this point. Whether this this

1:33:04.400 --> 1:33:06.200
<v Speaker 1>woman who I think she was worked for the Air

1:33:06.240 --> 1:33:10.320
<v Speaker 1>Force as an intelligence analyst, right, yeah, and she's now

1:33:10.439 --> 1:33:13.960
<v Speaker 1>at large. They don't even I think they're probably hiding somewhere.

1:33:14.040 --> 1:33:16.240
<v Speaker 1>Is she supposed to be in Iranda? We know, I

1:33:16.280 --> 1:33:18.160
<v Speaker 1>don't know where she is, but they're trying to track

1:33:18.160 --> 1:33:22.439
<v Speaker 1>her down. Monica Wit, Monica Wit, and they say that

1:33:22.479 --> 1:33:25.840
<v Speaker 1>she gave away some very sensitive stuff. All I can

1:33:25.880 --> 1:33:29.000
<v Speaker 1>just say is, you know, every society has traders, folks.

1:33:29.120 --> 1:33:32.519
<v Speaker 1>It's going to happen, unfortunately, and hopefully we can limit

1:33:32.560 --> 1:33:35.439
<v Speaker 1>the damage they do on ours. Why anybody would try

1:33:35.439 --> 1:33:37.720
<v Speaker 1>to help the Iranians any American? Remember this is an

1:33:37.720 --> 1:33:42.720
<v Speaker 1>American who has essentially defected and double crossed us to

1:33:42.760 --> 1:33:46.760
<v Speaker 1>help iran You know, betraying America is always a terrible thing,

1:33:46.960 --> 1:33:51.280
<v Speaker 1>but traying America for the Iranians is just even even

1:33:51.400 --> 1:33:57.639
<v Speaker 1>just goes beyond usual treasonto wow treason, and this is nuts.

1:33:58.240 --> 1:33:59.800
<v Speaker 1>But I don't have much on other than that, just

1:33:59.840 --> 1:34:03.280
<v Speaker 1>because I don't know what the programs are, the information is,

1:34:03.320 --> 1:34:06.080
<v Speaker 1>so I can't speak to any of that. But we'll

1:34:06.080 --> 1:34:09.639
<v Speaker 1>be right back. Beaten with a noose around his neck

1:34:09.760 --> 1:34:13.800
<v Speaker 1>and hospitalized. Empire star Jesse Smollett was the victim of

1:34:13.800 --> 1:34:17.920
<v Speaker 1>a vicious racist and homophobic attack, and his attackers hurled

1:34:18.000 --> 1:34:23.040
<v Speaker 1>racial and homophobic slurs. Two people yelled racists and homophobic slurs.

1:34:23.120 --> 1:34:26.919
<v Speaker 1>At only homophobia, We're talking about racism, We're talking about

1:34:27.040 --> 1:34:30.519
<v Speaker 1>hate with steroids. They are looking for two suspects who

1:34:30.520 --> 1:34:34.480
<v Speaker 1>are apparently wearing Make America Great Again hats. The offenders

1:34:34.520 --> 1:34:37.679
<v Speaker 1>uttered this is mega country, Speaker of the House Nancy

1:34:37.680 --> 1:34:41.640
<v Speaker 1>Pelosi tweeting the racist, homophobic attack on Jesse Smollette is

1:34:41.640 --> 1:34:45.120
<v Speaker 1>an affront where humanity. And Senator Qurey Booker said the

1:34:45.240 --> 1:34:48.799
<v Speaker 1>vicious attack when actor Jesse was an attempted modern day lynching.

1:34:48.880 --> 1:34:52.519
<v Speaker 1>Kamala Harris calling the attack and attempted modern day lynching,

1:34:52.640 --> 1:34:55.280
<v Speaker 1>and I'm so shaken by the story. This is horrible

1:34:55.400 --> 1:34:57.760
<v Speaker 1>to report. This is a horrible story, and this is

1:34:57.800 --> 1:35:02.920
<v Speaker 1>America in twenty nineteen. Man, those media folks are really

1:35:03.120 --> 1:35:08.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, they really believe this. Apparently they believe it. Mike,

1:35:08.479 --> 1:35:12.040
<v Speaker 1>I want to know. I want to know just why

1:35:12.080 --> 1:35:16.280
<v Speaker 1>somebody can't come out and tell me, just tell me

1:35:16.320 --> 1:35:19.960
<v Speaker 1>how it's possible that a guy who says he had

1:35:20.000 --> 1:35:24.439
<v Speaker 1>a racist hate crime happened to him won't turn over

1:35:24.479 --> 1:35:25.800
<v Speaker 1>his phone. And I had people reach out to me,

1:35:25.800 --> 1:35:27.160
<v Speaker 1>by the way, from the media because some of them

1:35:27.200 --> 1:35:30.640
<v Speaker 1>heard the show. They said, Buck, what if he has

1:35:31.160 --> 1:35:33.120
<v Speaker 1>below the belt picks on there? Like they came up

1:35:33.120 --> 1:35:36.200
<v Speaker 1>with these really creative theories for why he wouldn't just

1:35:36.200 --> 1:35:38.519
<v Speaker 1>just to prove people say, why does it matter when

1:35:38.560 --> 1:35:41.000
<v Speaker 1>you tell the police things? They just check off the

1:35:41.040 --> 1:35:43.479
<v Speaker 1>facts because they want that. That's what they do. They're

1:35:43.479 --> 1:35:46.800
<v Speaker 1>doing their investigation, their due diligence on the story, right.

1:35:47.320 --> 1:35:50.960
<v Speaker 1>So okay, he wouldn't give them the phone initially. Now

1:35:51.560 --> 1:35:55.679
<v Speaker 1>he gave them incomplete phone records, redacted phone records, which

1:35:55.720 --> 1:35:59.320
<v Speaker 1>means that clearly he's hiding something from his phone records,

1:35:59.520 --> 1:36:01.400
<v Speaker 1>which is utterly bizarre. Mike, I just want to know,

1:36:01.520 --> 1:36:06.280
<v Speaker 1>is there any reasonable explanation for this that you've heard whatsoever?

1:36:06.320 --> 1:36:08.320
<v Speaker 1>Because I have not, and yet the media still believe

1:36:08.400 --> 1:36:12.160
<v Speaker 1>this guy none whatsoever. I mean, this is completely shady activity.

1:36:13.640 --> 1:36:17.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean the idea also that these two like rednecks

1:36:17.000 --> 1:36:19.519
<v Speaker 1>and maga hats walking around Chicago. By the way, I

1:36:19.560 --> 1:36:21.760
<v Speaker 1>feel like other people would have noticed these guys too.

1:36:21.920 --> 1:36:24.240
<v Speaker 1>Do you say this, I mean in Chicago when they

1:36:24.240 --> 1:36:27.479
<v Speaker 1>went around and ask, Hey, anyone see anything? This is

1:36:27.600 --> 1:36:31.160
<v Speaker 1>Maga Country, not Chicago. I know a lot first of all,

1:36:31.240 --> 1:36:33.800
<v Speaker 1>not Chicago, unless there's another Chicago down south that I'm

1:36:33.800 --> 1:36:37.759
<v Speaker 1>not aware of. I know a lot of Trump supporters, Okay,

1:36:38.080 --> 1:36:40.760
<v Speaker 1>I have never heard a single person say this is

1:36:40.880 --> 1:36:46.400
<v Speaker 1>Maga Country. No, that is so I'm just gonna say it.

1:36:46.640 --> 1:36:50.080
<v Speaker 1>That is something that a person would make up about

1:36:50.080 --> 1:36:52.880
<v Speaker 1>Trump supporters. That is not something a Trump supporter would say.

1:36:53.479 --> 1:36:55.280
<v Speaker 1>You know, people that are really into Trump are not

1:36:55.320 --> 1:36:59.479
<v Speaker 1>gonna say this is maga country. And like you always say,

1:36:59.560 --> 1:37:02.160
<v Speaker 1>like it's something like this when something happens to you,

1:37:02.680 --> 1:37:05.439
<v Speaker 1>like this, it's this, you know, supposedly the terrific. You're

1:37:05.439 --> 1:37:07.920
<v Speaker 1>like really adamant about it. You know, you really come

1:37:07.960 --> 1:37:12.160
<v Speaker 1>out strong, like who knows. But the fact that he

1:37:12.280 --> 1:37:14.519
<v Speaker 1>is not coming out like now that people are doubting him,

1:37:14.560 --> 1:37:16.680
<v Speaker 1>like there's you know, it's been in the media last week,

1:37:16.680 --> 1:37:19.439
<v Speaker 1>people are dying him. He's going radio silent. Like if

1:37:19.479 --> 1:37:22.000
<v Speaker 1>this happened to me and people start doubting me, I'd

1:37:22.040 --> 1:37:23.800
<v Speaker 1>be all up in their face like, oh yeah, no,

1:37:24.040 --> 1:37:26.599
<v Speaker 1>this this happened, this is the way it went down,

1:37:26.880 --> 1:37:29.360
<v Speaker 1>this is where it was, like you just you don't

1:37:29.360 --> 1:37:31.280
<v Speaker 1>you present the facts and you get I would be

1:37:31.360 --> 1:37:33.120
<v Speaker 1>upset of somebody down in my story. I just think

1:37:33.120 --> 1:37:35.040
<v Speaker 1>it's so interesting to the media that the interest in

1:37:35.080 --> 1:37:37.920
<v Speaker 1>this with every passing day, now that now that people

1:37:37.960 --> 1:37:41.479
<v Speaker 1>are people are asking should the police subpoena his phone records,

1:37:41.479 --> 1:37:44.040
<v Speaker 1>which is very easy to do. I mean for phone records.

1:37:44.160 --> 1:37:46.600
<v Speaker 1>I've done phone records subpoenas myself. All it has to

1:37:46.600 --> 1:37:48.640
<v Speaker 1>do is essentially be tied to an investigation. I mean,

1:37:48.640 --> 1:37:51.519
<v Speaker 1>to pull phone records is not a high bar at all.

1:37:51.800 --> 1:37:53.720
<v Speaker 1>And now there are people say no, no no, no, they

1:37:53.720 --> 1:37:56.960
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't do that. Why shouldn't they subpoenas phone records? He

1:37:57.000 --> 1:37:58.799
<v Speaker 1>said he was all on the phone with his manager

1:37:58.840 --> 1:38:00.960
<v Speaker 1>when he got attacked. I think there are people who

1:38:01.000 --> 1:38:03.320
<v Speaker 1>realize this is this is going to turn into. There

1:38:03.320 --> 1:38:05.639
<v Speaker 1>are only two options here that I see. He got

1:38:05.640 --> 1:38:08.000
<v Speaker 1>into a scuffle with somebody that had nothing to do

1:38:08.120 --> 1:38:11.400
<v Speaker 1>with Trump or Mago or any of this stuff, and

1:38:11.680 --> 1:38:13.200
<v Speaker 1>and kind of cooked up this story because he saw

1:38:13.240 --> 1:38:15.120
<v Speaker 1>an opportunity. That's one. But I think the much more

1:38:15.120 --> 1:38:17.599
<v Speaker 1>likely thing is he just this is a national attention grip.

1:38:18.600 --> 1:38:20.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't see what I mean. The third option is

1:38:20.840 --> 1:38:23.400
<v Speaker 1>that this bizarre story happened to this guy and that

1:38:23.520 --> 1:38:25.519
<v Speaker 1>he wants to make the police's job really hard. I

1:38:25.520 --> 1:38:27.960
<v Speaker 1>don't get that. I actually get with option A. I think, yeah,

1:38:28.000 --> 1:38:29.559
<v Speaker 1>I think the first thing he said, I think he

1:38:29.640 --> 1:38:32.640
<v Speaker 1>got in. I think something happened, and I think he

1:38:33.120 --> 1:38:34.960
<v Speaker 1>jaguard the whole thing and that that allows him to

1:38:35.000 --> 1:38:37.240
<v Speaker 1>It's like he's a method actor. He's an actor right now.

1:38:37.280 --> 1:38:39.440
<v Speaker 1>It's like he's in the he got in the mindset

1:38:39.439 --> 1:38:40.920
<v Speaker 1>of what it could be like to be in a

1:38:41.000 --> 1:38:43.519
<v Speaker 1>racial attack when maybe some guy, you know, maybe if

1:38:43.520 --> 1:38:45.080
<v Speaker 1>I had to take a guess, I would say that

1:38:45.160 --> 1:38:47.760
<v Speaker 1>something happened and he was in the wrong and he

1:38:47.960 --> 1:38:51.200
<v Speaker 1>probably wound up losing in a fight or something and

1:38:51.240 --> 1:38:53.960
<v Speaker 1>then got into a scuffle somebody and then made it. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

1:38:53.960 --> 1:38:55.720
<v Speaker 1>I think. I think because also, by the way, the

1:38:56.160 --> 1:39:00.479
<v Speaker 1>I mean two guys attack you have the ability. I know,

1:39:00.600 --> 1:39:02.120
<v Speaker 1>not that I ever try this out. Do you guys

1:39:02.160 --> 1:39:04.599
<v Speaker 1>attack me on the street and they managed to get

1:39:04.640 --> 1:39:07.559
<v Speaker 1>a noose around my neck, I would be in really

1:39:07.600 --> 1:39:10.520
<v Speaker 1>bad physical shape. I wouldn't have like a tiny shiner

1:39:10.800 --> 1:39:13.040
<v Speaker 1>on my under my left eye, like i'd have like

1:39:13.040 --> 1:39:15.800
<v Speaker 1>a broken nose or joban, you know, because you're gonna

1:39:16.439 --> 1:39:18.439
<v Speaker 1>they could kill you with a noose, right, I mean,

1:39:18.439 --> 1:39:20.320
<v Speaker 1>a noose is not something just like oh wait, hold on,

1:39:20.760 --> 1:39:23.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm attacking you. I want to put this rope

1:39:23.000 --> 1:39:25.000
<v Speaker 1>around your neck that I could strangle you with. Right,

1:39:25.000 --> 1:39:27.120
<v Speaker 1>But I think people leave this out. And he left

1:39:27.120 --> 1:39:31.800
<v Speaker 1>the noose around his neck. Not credible, Not credible. No, no, no,

1:39:32.000 --> 1:39:34.760
<v Speaker 1>see we speak the truth of your team without fear

1:39:34.840 --> 1:39:39.960
<v Speaker 1>or favor. Oh yeah, grab back. Ain't no party like

1:39:40.120 --> 1:39:50.599
<v Speaker 1>a Team Buck party, because a Team Buck party don't stop. Yeah,

1:39:50.640 --> 1:40:05.640
<v Speaker 1>we got Buck turned up to eleven. It's time for

1:40:05.840 --> 1:40:11.760

1:40:25.240 --> 1:40:27.439
<v Speaker 1>It's a little cold, Brandon, it's a little cold. I

1:40:27.479 --> 1:40:29.679
<v Speaker 1>was hoping it would be warmer. You know, DC doesn't

1:40:29.720 --> 1:40:32.679
<v Speaker 1>have snow, so this is where. Yeah, there's no snow

1:40:32.680 --> 1:40:33.840
<v Speaker 1>in DC. So this is when I was on the

1:40:33.880 --> 1:40:36.880
<v Speaker 1>trail webisode. Whoa wait a second, even the what is it?

1:40:36.920 --> 1:40:39.439

1:40:39.520 --> 1:40:43.120
<v Speaker 1>terms of climate? All right, none of you care about that.

1:41:03.360 --> 1:41:05.400
<v Speaker 1>roll and blues, but in later years I've learned to

1:41:05.400 --> 1:41:08.800
<v Speaker 1>appreciate country music. These are the country music artists I

1:41:08.840 --> 1:41:13.320
<v Speaker 1>would recommend Keith Urban, Brad Paisley, Eric Church, Chris Stapleton

1:41:14.040 --> 1:41:16.960

1:41:27.600 --> 1:41:30.640
<v Speaker 1>of the iHeart Live concert series feature a lot of

1:41:30.640 --> 1:41:33.439

<v Speaker 1>good things. David Wrights buck watch you on Rising Today.

1:41:56.640 --> 1:42:00.360
<v Speaker 1>Excuse me, watch you on Rising today up set that

1:42:00.400 --> 1:42:03.120
<v Speaker 1>you shaved the beard. I think it makes you look better.

1:42:03.160 --> 1:42:05.160
<v Speaker 1>And it looks like the swoop is getting out of control.

1:42:06.200 --> 1:42:08.400
<v Speaker 1>Let's try. Do you need a haircut? I try to

1:42:08.400 --> 1:42:10.040
<v Speaker 1>get a haircut for what it's worth. I try to

1:42:10.040 --> 1:42:12.720
<v Speaker 1>get a haircut today and I couldn't. I couldn't get

1:42:12.720 --> 1:42:15.559
<v Speaker 1>into the barber. But yeah, the swoop is out of control.

1:42:16.000 --> 1:42:18.360
<v Speaker 1>And I missed the beard too. I came in. Brandon

1:42:18.439 --> 1:42:22.080
<v Speaker 1>has a very high quality beard. DJ Brandon has a

1:42:22.160 --> 1:42:25.759
<v Speaker 1>very good beard, it's true. And I told him about,

1:42:25.920 --> 1:42:30.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, my little clipper shaving incident where I was

1:42:30.680 --> 1:42:32.000
<v Speaker 1>just trying to do a little trim, but you go

1:42:32.040 --> 1:42:34.400
<v Speaker 1>too much. I didn't realize the mustache part of it.

1:42:34.479 --> 1:42:36.599
<v Speaker 1>You can't mess up on like that, like on the

1:42:36.640 --> 1:42:38.720
<v Speaker 1>neckline and stuff. You can make a little bit of

1:42:38.760 --> 1:42:40.680
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of a booboo and it's all right.

1:42:41.000 --> 1:42:43.440
<v Speaker 1>But if you miss the mustache up, like if you,

1:42:43.439 --> 1:42:46.479
<v Speaker 1>you know, clipper, just the center part of your mustache off,

1:42:46.680 --> 1:42:48.880
<v Speaker 1>you're done. You're done. You can't be the guy that's

1:42:48.920 --> 1:42:52.000
<v Speaker 1>miss in the middle of your mustache, right, No, you

1:42:52.040 --> 1:42:53.519

1:42:53.760 --> 1:42:56.519
<v Speaker 1>I'm at duover. I'm a duover face. But that did do.

1:42:56.640 --> 1:42:58.639

1:45:17.120 --> 1:45:21.679
<v Speaker 1>O'Rourke is the Bobby Newport of national politics in real life,

1:45:22.120 --> 1:45:27.439
<v Speaker 1>Bobby Newport. Bobby Newport thinks that this is a job

1:45:27.520 --> 1:45:31.160
<v Speaker 1>you can just get by marrying a billionaire. Some of

1:45:31.200 --> 1:45:33.559
<v Speaker 1>you who are Parks and Rex super fans will catch this.

1:45:33.680 --> 1:45:38.960
<v Speaker 1>I know you're catching this right now, Bobby Newport. If

1:45:39.000 --> 1:45:40.639
<v Speaker 1>you don't watch Parks and Rec, you think that I'm

1:45:40.640 --> 1:45:42.839
<v Speaker 1>having some kind of a breakdown in here. But that's okay.

1:45:43.040 --> 1:45:46.519
<v Speaker 1>You were in and everyone says this. I don't look

1:45:46.600 --> 1:45:49.240
<v Speaker 1>that much like Adam Scott. This is a lie. This

1:45:49.439 --> 1:45:53.160
<v Speaker 1>is a lie that people tell themselves. Adam Scott is

1:45:53.200 --> 1:45:55.040
<v Speaker 1>like five to three and one hundred and ten pounds.

1:45:55.120 --> 1:45:56.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm working on one hundred and ten pounds part, but

1:45:57.320 --> 1:46:02.000
<v Speaker 1>you know he's halfway there. But yeah, man, good good things,

1:46:02.040 --> 1:46:07.920
<v Speaker 1>good things, Bobby Newport. Keith writes, hasn't anyone, oh my oh,

1:46:10.680 --> 1:46:14.599
<v Speaker 1>of Adam Schiff visa the Andy Kaufman. I think Shift

1:46:14.640 --> 1:46:17.360
<v Speaker 1>could do a decent rendition of the theme song from

1:46:17.439 --> 1:46:20.880
<v Speaker 1>Mighty Mouse. Here I come to save the day. You know,

1:46:20.960 --> 1:46:24.720
<v Speaker 1>sometimes our listeners are so creative that i'm I must say,

1:46:24.800 --> 1:46:26.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what they're talking about. So that one

1:46:26.840 --> 1:46:30.240
<v Speaker 1>went Did any of you catch that one went beyond

1:46:30.280 --> 1:46:35.840
<v Speaker 1>my be on my knowledge? Another Chris got a lot

1:46:35.840 --> 1:46:37.439
<v Speaker 1>of Chris is running in today buck. As I was

1:46:37.439 --> 1:46:43.639
<v Speaker 1>sitting in my favorite chair pondering excessive methane emissions, as

1:46:43.680 --> 1:46:46.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm known to do, I finally came up with the

1:46:46.520 --> 1:46:51.200
<v Speaker 1>planet saving idea. Pilot lights on all farm animals north

1:46:51.200 --> 1:46:53.920
<v Speaker 1>and south, kind of like you see on oil dereks

1:46:53.960 --> 1:46:56.879
<v Speaker 1>and trash dumps. I can already taste the Nobel Prize

1:46:57.240 --> 1:47:03.080
<v Speaker 1>ps avoid the animals coming and going creative, I guess.

1:47:03.160 --> 1:47:10.040
<v Speaker 1>I okay, So there's that Richard rides bug. What up?

1:47:10.080 --> 1:47:11.960
<v Speaker 1>You notice all the barriers keeping one hundred people at

1:47:11.960 --> 1:47:14.639
<v Speaker 1>the Beato rally from the stage. Yeah, it's like it's

1:47:14.680 --> 1:47:17.439
<v Speaker 1>really hard because it's like I just wanted to just

1:47:17.479 --> 1:47:20.439
<v Speaker 1>like like shake everybody's hand at the Beato rally because

1:47:20.479 --> 1:47:23.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm Bett o' rourke. But like there was a fence

1:47:23.040 --> 1:47:26.719
<v Speaker 1>that was in the way and I couldn't even skateboard

1:47:26.760 --> 1:47:30.280
<v Speaker 1>around it, and I really wanted to ruster, Mike, will

1:47:30.280 --> 1:47:32.280
<v Speaker 1>you please come to my rally and be my friend?

1:47:32.960 --> 1:47:36.599
<v Speaker 1>Thank you? That thing was so awkward, so awkward. They

1:47:36.600 --> 1:47:40.839
<v Speaker 1>were like they're like like like fifty people that were there,

1:47:40.880 --> 1:47:43.280
<v Speaker 1>but they just love Betos so much that it like

1:47:43.560 --> 1:47:46.760
<v Speaker 1>is amazing. You know, they had a Trump. They had

1:47:46.760 --> 1:47:48.800
<v Speaker 1>like a monitor in the background with the Trump that

1:47:48.920 --> 1:47:53.160
<v Speaker 1>you could see on it. That did not really go well. Yeah,

1:47:53.280 --> 1:47:56.000
<v Speaker 1>Richard's making fun of the Beato rally too, which you know,

1:47:56.080 --> 1:47:58.960
<v Speaker 1>this guy, people think that he has some kind of No,

1:47:59.120 --> 1:48:02.880
<v Speaker 1>it's all immediate creation. He hasn't actually shown us any

1:48:02.880 --> 1:48:06.759
<v Speaker 1>ability to do anything yet, but people like this stuff.

1:48:07.560 --> 1:48:11.439
<v Speaker 1>Conrad Right's California's bullet train. I think Conrad's a cool name.

1:48:11.479 --> 1:48:14.559
<v Speaker 1>By the way, California's bullet train was being built by

1:48:14.640 --> 1:48:18.320
<v Speaker 1>Diane Feinstein's hubby. I don't know, producer, Mike, do we know?

1:48:18.360 --> 1:48:19.680
<v Speaker 1>But I don't know about that. Is that right? It

1:48:19.760 --> 1:48:23.840
<v Speaker 1>sounds right? No, the bullet train is being built by

1:48:23.840 --> 1:48:27.320
<v Speaker 1>the taxpayer dollars of America. That's well, that's there. We

1:48:27.400 --> 1:48:30.200
<v Speaker 1>go fact check true but I think what he might

1:48:30.200 --> 1:48:34.719
<v Speaker 1>be referring to is that I think Feinstein's hubby owns

1:48:34.760 --> 1:48:37.960
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of land that he just happened to purchase

1:48:38.040 --> 1:48:42.000
<v Speaker 1>that happens to be right near some of the important

1:48:43.080 --> 1:48:47.920
<v Speaker 1>termini or the terminus of the railroad station. That's quite

1:48:47.960 --> 1:48:50.559
<v Speaker 1>a quite a good real estate move to make, if

1:48:50.560 --> 1:48:52.400
<v Speaker 1>you know what's going on. So, but yes, you're right,

1:48:52.400 --> 1:48:54.479
<v Speaker 1>it is the tax bad. They were not. There was

1:48:54.520 --> 1:48:57.599
<v Speaker 1>no private way to spend what was a seventy seven

1:48:57.640 --> 1:49:01.960
<v Speaker 1>billion dollars, yeah, right around there. Eighty billion, Yes, it

1:49:02.080 --> 1:49:04.920
<v Speaker 1>was a billion, not million billion, Yeah it was. It

1:49:04.960 --> 1:49:07.200
<v Speaker 1>was a train wreck. It was indeed a train wreck.

1:49:07.560 --> 1:49:14.160
<v Speaker 1>It's a mobile dumpster fire in a train. Uh, Jordan. Right,

1:49:14.160 --> 1:49:16.320
<v Speaker 1>it's just listening tonight. And since you're trying to get

1:49:16.479 --> 1:49:19.559
<v Speaker 1>customer country music, you should listen to the oldies, nineties

1:49:19.560 --> 1:49:21.599
<v Speaker 1>and earlier, the twangs where it's at. If you listen

1:49:21.640 --> 1:49:25.000
<v Speaker 1>to middle and fourteen Gears, it has that twang. That's

1:49:25.040 --> 1:49:27.519
<v Speaker 1>real country music. Yes, I grew up on country music

1:49:27.520 --> 1:49:30.479
<v Speaker 1>and I'm from Grand Junction, Colorado. Well Shields. How to you, Jordan?

1:49:30.560 --> 1:49:32.519
<v Speaker 1>Thank you? I am. I am keeping a running list

1:49:32.520 --> 1:49:35.040
<v Speaker 1>here from my Spotify. I've got a country music Spotify

1:49:35.120 --> 1:49:40.519
<v Speaker 1>playlist now, and you know that's that's it's getting bigger

1:49:40.520 --> 1:49:42.240
<v Speaker 1>and bigger. I'm listening to more. But I've got a

1:49:42.280 --> 1:49:46.040
<v Speaker 1>punk rock Spotify playlist now. Because I realized Nick Gillespie

1:49:46.040 --> 1:49:49.320
<v Speaker 1>from Reason was on Twitter. You don't one of the libertarians.

1:49:49.479 --> 1:49:51.680
<v Speaker 1>Libertarians have some interesting stuff to say. He was on

1:49:51.720 --> 1:49:53.679
<v Speaker 1>Twitter and he was talking about punk rock, and I said,

1:49:53.680 --> 1:49:54.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, man, I just gotta be honest with you,

1:49:54.920 --> 1:49:57.280
<v Speaker 1>I really don't know punk rock. Like I know who

1:49:57.320 --> 1:50:00.120
<v Speaker 1>the Ramons are. I don't know. I didn't grow up

1:50:00.120 --> 1:50:04.240
<v Speaker 1>in a cave somewhere, but I didn't really understand. I

1:50:04.280 --> 1:50:07.920
<v Speaker 1>hadn't really been exposed too much of the music. And

1:50:08.479 --> 1:50:12.799
<v Speaker 1>I've got the playlist. Punk rock is great, really good stuff. Actually,

1:50:12.960 --> 1:50:15.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, the New York Dolls and the Ramones and

1:50:16.200 --> 1:50:19.920

<v Speaker 1>in the punk He's talking to the wrong Quinnlin all right, yeah, no,

1:50:37.479 --> 1:50:39.479

1:50:39.520 --> 1:50:41.360
<v Speaker 1>to them. I like it, but I just don't. I'm

1:50:41.360 --> 1:50:44.080

1:50:44.080 --> 1:50:46.679
<v Speaker 1>into it though. Yeah, well there we have it. Yeah,
