WEBVTT - The Greatest Electoral Victory

0:00:10.920 --> 0:00:16.160
<v Speaker 1>You are entering the freedom hunt. The whispers across DC

0:00:16.480 --> 0:00:19.400
<v Speaker 1>get louder with every passing hour that the Mulla report

0:00:19.440 --> 0:00:23.079
<v Speaker 1>could drop as soon as tomorrow. Do we believe them?

0:00:23.120 --> 0:00:26.800
<v Speaker 1>And what would that mean? Plus the border is now

0:00:26.880 --> 0:00:30.440
<v Speaker 1>so overwhelmed that Immigrations and Customs enforcement are having to

0:00:30.520 --> 0:00:34.160
<v Speaker 1>just release families. That's right, let them right through Indian

0:00:34.200 --> 0:00:36.480
<v Speaker 1>tier of the United States. And also the universal Basic

0:00:36.560 --> 0:00:40.400
<v Speaker 1>income another trojan horse towards socialism. That and more coming

0:00:40.479 --> 0:00:43.840
<v Speaker 1>up on The buck Sexton Show. This is the buck

0:00:43.880 --> 0:00:47.199
<v Speaker 1>Sexton Show, where the mission or mission is to decode

0:00:47.200 --> 0:00:53.440
<v Speaker 1>what really matters with actionable intelligence. Make no mistake America,

0:00:54.320 --> 0:00:57.480
<v Speaker 1>You're a great American Again. The buck Sexton Show begins.

0:00:59.120 --> 0:01:03.160
<v Speaker 1>Analyst remember Bro the VD, he's a great guy. No,

0:01:04.640 --> 0:01:07.000
<v Speaker 1>but I don't alleon no collision. I have no idea

0:01:07.040 --> 0:01:09.840
<v Speaker 1>what it's going to be released. It's interesting that a

0:01:09.959 --> 0:01:13.840
<v Speaker 1>man gets appointed by a deputy. He writes a report. Uh,

0:01:14.560 --> 0:01:18.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, never figured that one out man gets appointed

0:01:18.360 --> 0:01:21.039
<v Speaker 1>by a deputy. He writes a report. I had the

0:01:21.080 --> 0:01:24.440
<v Speaker 1>greatest electoral victory, one of them the history of our country.

0:01:25.360 --> 0:01:30.000
<v Speaker 1>Tremendous success, tens of millions of voters and now somebody's

0:01:30.040 --> 0:01:32.600
<v Speaker 1>going to write a report who never got to vote.

0:01:32.600 --> 0:01:34.440
<v Speaker 1>So we'll see what the report says. Let's see if

0:01:34.440 --> 0:01:36.920
<v Speaker 1>it's fair. I have no idea what it's going to

0:01:37.000 --> 0:01:41.440
<v Speaker 1>be released. Welcome to the buck, Sex and show everybody.

0:01:41.480 --> 0:01:44.840
<v Speaker 1>Great to have you here with me. As always, I'm

0:01:44.880 --> 0:01:49.320
<v Speaker 1>here in the swamp and oh it's feeling swampy. We're

0:01:49.360 --> 0:01:51.920
<v Speaker 1>being told there are whispers all over the place in

0:01:51.920 --> 0:01:55.760
<v Speaker 1>the Hill newsroom my various sources inside the federal government

0:01:55.800 --> 0:02:01.200
<v Speaker 1>that we are, you know, t minus forty eight hours

0:02:01.560 --> 0:02:05.880
<v Speaker 1>from the Muller Report dropping and the Muller Probe, the

0:02:05.920 --> 0:02:09.600
<v Speaker 1>Special Council ending. I do not know if it's true, though,

0:02:10.919 --> 0:02:15.440
<v Speaker 1>because I've been told for weeks now this is about

0:02:15.440 --> 0:02:17.240
<v Speaker 1>to happen, and from people who would know, and they

0:02:17.320 --> 0:02:19.200
<v Speaker 1>keep telling me. When I asked them, hold on a second.

0:02:19.240 --> 0:02:21.680
<v Speaker 1>You told me that this was going to happen. You

0:02:21.760 --> 0:02:27.120
<v Speaker 1>told me that this was about to about to finally

0:02:27.240 --> 0:02:29.320
<v Speaker 1>wrap up, And they say, well, it was, but then

0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:32.440
<v Speaker 1>they moved it back. It was, but then all of

0:02:32.480 --> 0:02:34.200
<v Speaker 1>a sudden there was some reason why they could not

0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:41.680
<v Speaker 1>do it anymore. Be very very interesting to see how

0:02:41.760 --> 0:02:45.919
<v Speaker 1>the different parties here in the biggest political drama really

0:02:45.960 --> 0:02:48.800
<v Speaker 1>in the world for the last two years, certainly in America,

0:02:48.800 --> 0:02:50.239
<v Speaker 1>And I guess you could argue that that means in

0:02:50.280 --> 0:02:55.519
<v Speaker 1>the world how they react to this. And I want

0:02:55.560 --> 0:03:00.240
<v Speaker 1>to know what the White House response will be, because

0:03:00.280 --> 0:03:06.280
<v Speaker 1>they must be chomping at the bit to get to

0:03:07.520 --> 0:03:11.400
<v Speaker 1>just crush all of the liars and the haters and

0:03:11.440 --> 0:03:14.520
<v Speaker 1>the nonsense that's out there and dragging this country through

0:03:14.560 --> 0:03:19.880
<v Speaker 1>this nightmare. And for what we've seen now so much

0:03:20.440 --> 0:03:24.000
<v Speaker 1>that I think years ago Americans would have thought impossible.

0:03:24.040 --> 0:03:27.200
<v Speaker 1>We've seen an FBI that was infiltrated at the highest

0:03:27.280 --> 0:03:31.640
<v Speaker 1>level by deep state partisans who wanted to override the

0:03:31.639 --> 0:03:35.640
<v Speaker 1>will of the American people. We have seen the usage

0:03:35.680 --> 0:03:39.440
<v Speaker 1>of FISA, which when I was in the intelligence community

0:03:39.480 --> 0:03:45.120
<v Speaker 1>that was considered, you know, a highly sensitive tool only

0:03:45.160 --> 0:03:49.280
<v Speaker 1>meant for the most important national security purpose. We've seen

0:03:49.360 --> 0:03:54.520
<v Speaker 1>FISA deployed against Carter Page on a fishing expedition that

0:03:54.680 --> 0:03:58.640
<v Speaker 1>brought nothing. We've seen the abuse of some of the

0:03:58.680 --> 0:04:02.840
<v Speaker 1>most intrusive and sensitive tools that our government has, the

0:04:03.000 --> 0:04:06.920
<v Speaker 1>shredding of the Constitution in the process, all because a

0:04:07.000 --> 0:04:09.840
<v Speaker 1>bunch of people who had worked for government, perhaps for

0:04:09.920 --> 0:04:14.240
<v Speaker 1>too long, thought that Hillary Clinton really really deserved to win,

0:04:15.680 --> 0:04:19.640
<v Speaker 1>and that Donald Trump was a threat to the Republic

0:04:19.720 --> 0:04:24.280
<v Speaker 1>because you know, he writes some snarky tweets and he's

0:04:24.320 --> 0:04:27.080
<v Speaker 1>been married three times or something. I mean, it's not

0:04:27.120 --> 0:04:29.800
<v Speaker 1>even ever really clear. Oh, and they say he's crazy.

0:04:30.520 --> 0:04:33.760
<v Speaker 1>He's a billionaire, he's been wildly successful and he's now president,

0:04:33.800 --> 0:04:40.600
<v Speaker 1>but he's crazy. You know. I saw an interview with McCabe,

0:04:40.760 --> 0:04:45.200
<v Speaker 1>who is so slimy. He just reminds me of these

0:04:45.200 --> 0:04:46.960
<v Speaker 1>guys that I used to work with in the CIA

0:04:47.080 --> 0:04:50.480
<v Speaker 1>who were in the internal security side, and you sit

0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:53.200
<v Speaker 1>down with them and they weren't on your team and

0:04:53.360 --> 0:04:55.920
<v Speaker 1>they were just looking. They were just looking too, as

0:04:55.960 --> 0:04:57.240
<v Speaker 1>we used to say in the business, just to do

0:04:57.320 --> 0:05:01.400
<v Speaker 1>somebody dirty, I mean, just to break him down, ruin

0:05:01.520 --> 0:05:03.760
<v Speaker 1>their career, just get a scalp, because that's how they

0:05:03.760 --> 0:05:06.560
<v Speaker 1>advanced themselves. You know, McCabe is one of these institutionalists,

0:05:06.560 --> 0:05:09.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, he's the he's the the Hall Monitor on steroids.

0:05:09.960 --> 0:05:14.240
<v Speaker 1>The fact that that guy was FBI director acting director

0:05:14.279 --> 0:05:17.920
<v Speaker 1>for a while is is appalling. And he was sitting

0:05:17.960 --> 0:05:21.599
<v Speaker 1>there talking to Bill Maher on the Bill Maher Show,

0:05:22.440 --> 0:05:24.920
<v Speaker 1>who for all my criticisms of mar I will say

0:05:25.000 --> 0:05:26.880
<v Speaker 1>he at least believes in the First Amendment, and liberals

0:05:26.960 --> 0:05:28.840
<v Speaker 1>need to stop being babies and telling people they can't

0:05:28.839 --> 0:05:30.679
<v Speaker 1>talk and they can't say anything. I gave him credit

0:05:30.720 --> 0:05:32.560
<v Speaker 1>for that. He's good on that, and he's good on

0:05:32.680 --> 0:05:35.440
<v Speaker 1>radical Islam. He's terrible on everything else, but he is

0:05:35.480 --> 0:05:39.560
<v Speaker 1>good on those two issues. Uh the but but McCabe

0:05:39.600 --> 0:05:43.320
<v Speaker 1>was sitting there and it was just such a kind

0:05:43.320 --> 0:05:48.320
<v Speaker 1>of a mealy mouth pandering interview where you know, Bill Maher,

0:05:48.360 --> 0:05:51.080
<v Speaker 1>who was a believer in the Russian insanity and you know,

0:05:51.120 --> 0:05:53.480
<v Speaker 1>thinks that Donald trum must included with Russia and runs

0:05:53.480 --> 0:05:55.440
<v Speaker 1>with all this stuff, is saying, you know, is it

0:05:55.480 --> 0:05:58.160
<v Speaker 1>possible the Russians? Really? You know, what, did do the

0:05:58.200 --> 0:06:01.040
<v Speaker 1>Russians have something on him? Did they full trade the campaign?

0:06:01.360 --> 0:06:04.839
<v Speaker 1>And McCabe, instead of saying, look, that didn't happen, keeps going, well,

0:06:04.880 --> 0:06:07.880
<v Speaker 1>it's it's possible. You know, at this stage, that's still

0:06:07.880 --> 0:06:10.560
<v Speaker 1>what they're clinging to. It's possible. And when he was

0:06:10.640 --> 0:06:15.159
<v Speaker 1>asked about Hillary Clinton's emails, he just stuck with this

0:06:15.240 --> 0:06:21.320
<v Speaker 1>line that no person would have brought charges against Hillary

0:06:21.320 --> 0:06:23.400
<v Speaker 1>Clinton for that. I'm sorry. There was a guy who

0:06:23.400 --> 0:06:25.760
<v Speaker 1>took a photo on a submarine on his phone that

0:06:25.839 --> 0:06:28.360
<v Speaker 1>nobody saw, and that he deleted anyone. They sent him

0:06:28.360 --> 0:06:33.720
<v Speaker 1>to prison for a year, violation of classification protocols. Right,

0:06:33.760 --> 0:06:38.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean, this is this is such bull and that

0:06:38.080 --> 0:06:39.840
<v Speaker 1>that McCabe would go on TV and act like there

0:06:39.880 --> 0:06:42.800
<v Speaker 1>was nothing really to the Hillary investigation, and you know,

0:06:43.200 --> 0:06:45.159
<v Speaker 1>and politics didn't play a role in the decision. We're

0:06:45.160 --> 0:06:49.679
<v Speaker 1>not all idiots. We've seen them. They're exposed. And that's

0:06:49.680 --> 0:06:51.000
<v Speaker 1>what I really want to get to. Even if the

0:06:51.080 --> 0:06:53.160
<v Speaker 1>Muller probe goes on for another six months, we know

0:06:53.240 --> 0:06:55.320
<v Speaker 1>who we're dealing with. Now, we know what the other

0:06:55.400 --> 0:07:01.640
<v Speaker 1>side is all about, and we have to reassess at

0:07:01.680 --> 0:07:05.279
<v Speaker 1>some level. We have to adapt, even places where we

0:07:05.400 --> 0:07:10.600
<v Speaker 1>thought that being an American meant something more than just

0:07:11.120 --> 0:07:15.040
<v Speaker 1>petty partisanship. Right, even at those institutions like the Department

0:07:15.040 --> 0:07:18.560
<v Speaker 1>of Justice, where we would really like to believe it's

0:07:18.640 --> 0:07:25.720
<v Speaker 1>not all about d or R, It's about America. That's

0:07:25.760 --> 0:07:29.760
<v Speaker 1>a naive position. Now when there's politics involved, you know

0:07:30.320 --> 0:07:35.000
<v Speaker 1>that you can't trust the other side to respect the institution,

0:07:35.080 --> 0:07:41.600
<v Speaker 1>the process, the law, good faith, goodwill, good sense, none

0:07:41.600 --> 0:07:46.400
<v Speaker 1>of it. Trump understands this he's gonna have a lot,

0:07:46.480 --> 0:07:48.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, he's gonna have a lot to say about

0:07:48.280 --> 0:07:55.120
<v Speaker 1>Muller in particular Play twelve. I know nothing about it.

0:07:55.200 --> 0:07:58.520
<v Speaker 1>I know that he's conflicted, and I know that his

0:07:58.960 --> 0:08:02.520
<v Speaker 1>best friend is called me it's a bad cop. And

0:08:02.680 --> 0:08:05.640
<v Speaker 1>I know that there are other things. Obviously, you know,

0:08:05.680 --> 0:08:09.160
<v Speaker 1>I had a business transaction with him that I've reported

0:08:09.200 --> 0:08:12.960
<v Speaker 1>many times that people don't talk about. But I had

0:08:12.960 --> 0:08:17.440
<v Speaker 1>a nasty business transaction with him, and other things. I

0:08:17.560 --> 0:08:21.480
<v Speaker 1>know that he put thirteen highly conflicted and you know,

0:08:21.640 --> 0:08:25.360
<v Speaker 1>very angry. I call them angry democrats in so you know,

0:08:26.040 --> 0:08:28.040
<v Speaker 1>so what it is. Now, let's see whether or not

0:08:28.120 --> 0:08:31.480
<v Speaker 1>it's legit. You know better than anybody there's no collusion.

0:08:32.160 --> 0:08:34.680
<v Speaker 1>There was no collusion, there was no obstruction, there was

0:08:34.720 --> 0:08:41.040
<v Speaker 1>no nothing. That's all. I am almost certain that is

0:08:41.040 --> 0:08:43.960
<v Speaker 1>all going to be proven absolutely true in the Muller problem. Mean,

0:08:44.040 --> 0:08:46.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm as certain as you can be without actually having

0:08:46.960 --> 0:08:48.600
<v Speaker 1>the report in your hands and able to read it.

0:08:49.520 --> 0:08:54.920
<v Speaker 1>And that's that's going to be certainly a moment of

0:08:54.960 --> 0:08:58.200
<v Speaker 1>truth for the country, won't We've been waiting for for

0:08:58.240 --> 0:09:00.640
<v Speaker 1>a long time, and with the fact we've been through this,

0:09:00.720 --> 0:09:02.240
<v Speaker 1>I think about all the hours we've spent on this

0:09:02.320 --> 0:09:04.480
<v Speaker 1>show going through the different iterations of you know, the

0:09:04.559 --> 0:09:07.720
<v Speaker 1>Muller investigation here, and they're the people they've prosecuted, you know,

0:09:07.800 --> 0:09:13.120
<v Speaker 1>going after Roger Stone and Papadopoulos, and the hatred and

0:09:13.160 --> 0:09:17.080
<v Speaker 1>the just the bile that they spew at Paul Manaphor

0:09:17.200 --> 0:09:20.200
<v Speaker 1>people calling him a traitor. You know, the guy's you know,

0:09:20.240 --> 0:09:22.600
<v Speaker 1>he's a little a little sleazy in his business dealings,

0:09:22.600 --> 0:09:25.040
<v Speaker 1>but he's not a traitor. He didn't betray his he

0:09:25.040 --> 0:09:27.440
<v Speaker 1>didn't betray his country. People say that are idiots. They

0:09:27.480 --> 0:09:29.439
<v Speaker 1>don't know what they're talking about. The guy just wanted

0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:31.280
<v Speaker 1>to be, you know, even richer than he was and

0:09:31.320 --> 0:09:34.600
<v Speaker 1>didn't pay his taxes. It makes him a tax cheat,

0:09:34.600 --> 0:09:36.959
<v Speaker 1>doesn't make him and look, I'll say it a bit,

0:09:37.000 --> 0:09:38.560
<v Speaker 1>a tax cheat doesn't make you a bad guy. It

0:09:38.559 --> 0:09:40.800
<v Speaker 1>makes you a tax cheat. And we got to enforce

0:09:40.880 --> 0:09:43.839
<v Speaker 1>the law. But you know, i'd still have lunch with

0:09:43.880 --> 0:09:46.240
<v Speaker 1>a tax cheat. I would say, oh, I can't, I

0:09:46.320 --> 0:09:49.439
<v Speaker 1>can't even discuss anything with you, sir. I'm appaulled to

0:09:49.480 --> 0:09:51.640
<v Speaker 1>being your very presence. They want him to die in prison.

0:09:52.600 --> 0:09:54.120
<v Speaker 1>I want him to be treated like some kind of

0:09:54.120 --> 0:09:56.199
<v Speaker 1>an animal. You know, in a cage by himself for

0:09:56.280 --> 0:09:58.080
<v Speaker 1>the rest of his days. Guy is seventy years old.

0:09:58.120 --> 0:10:04.760
<v Speaker 1>All this hatred fanned by a wildly, wildly irresponsible media.

0:10:04.840 --> 0:10:07.880
<v Speaker 1>You know, even Ted Copple is like, look the major

0:10:07.920 --> 0:10:10.880
<v Speaker 1>media outlets, they've gone nuts when it comes to Trump.

0:10:10.920 --> 0:10:13.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't even know what to say. There's Ted Copple

0:10:13.320 --> 0:10:17.400
<v Speaker 1>play for I'm terribly concerned that when you talk about

0:10:17.440 --> 0:10:20.240
<v Speaker 1>the New York Times, cities characters, when you talk about

0:10:20.240 --> 0:10:27.679
<v Speaker 1>the Washington Posts, we're talking about organizations that I believe

0:10:27.840 --> 0:10:34.080
<v Speaker 1>have in fact decided as organizations the dog j Trump

0:10:34.240 --> 0:10:40.760
<v Speaker 1>is bad for the Hub States. Absolutely true. They are

0:10:42.080 --> 0:10:45.800
<v Speaker 1>as organizations CNN, the New York Times, the Washington Post.

0:10:45.920 --> 0:10:50.560
<v Speaker 1>They are part of the resistance to this president. They

0:10:50.600 --> 0:10:55.040
<v Speaker 1>are devoted to it. They work tirelessly, effortlessly or well,

0:10:55.040 --> 0:10:59.079
<v Speaker 1>not effortlessly. Tirelessly. Effortlessly would be a different thing. Tirelessly

0:10:59.120 --> 0:11:05.319
<v Speaker 1>toward destroying this presidency. If they could help bring down

0:11:05.480 --> 0:11:07.480
<v Speaker 1>his family members and have some of them sent to prison,

0:11:07.480 --> 0:11:13.960
<v Speaker 1>they would. They have no shame whatsoever in how partisan

0:11:14.000 --> 0:11:20.959
<v Speaker 1>they are. And unfortunately, even though we may finally get

0:11:21.000 --> 0:11:24.000
<v Speaker 1>some clarity here on them, all our probe, we may not.

0:11:24.240 --> 0:11:25.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I might be talking about this in a month. Up,

0:11:25.960 --> 0:11:29.680
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna be any day now, any day until you know,

0:11:29.840 --> 0:11:37.599
<v Speaker 1>you don't know, you know A done, I don't. But

0:11:37.640 --> 0:11:39.960
<v Speaker 1>there will have to come a time when we realize

0:11:40.040 --> 0:11:44.400
<v Speaker 1>that the media needs to basically be rebuilt from scratch.

0:11:44.960 --> 0:11:48.520
<v Speaker 1>That that's going to occur. I don't know when exactly,

0:11:49.440 --> 0:11:51.080
<v Speaker 1>but we will reach a point in which it's no

0:11:51.120 --> 0:11:54.840
<v Speaker 1>longer possible to vertend that these people are merchants of truth.

0:11:55.600 --> 0:11:57.600
<v Speaker 1>They are. I said it here on this show, and

0:11:57.600 --> 0:12:00.000
<v Speaker 1>I heard it get picked up elsewhere. Not enemies up

0:12:00.000 --> 0:12:02.520
<v Speaker 1>the people, but enemies of the truth. They absolutely are.

0:12:03.960 --> 0:12:09.160
<v Speaker 1>And now as we reach this hopefully latter stage of

0:12:09.320 --> 0:12:14.040
<v Speaker 1>the problem Muller investigation, you have to also do an

0:12:14.040 --> 0:12:17.640
<v Speaker 1>accounting of how successful they've really been. And it pains

0:12:17.679 --> 0:12:19.480
<v Speaker 1>me to say that. It makes me mad to have

0:12:19.559 --> 0:12:24.120
<v Speaker 1>to say that, But think of all the legal fees

0:12:24.840 --> 0:12:29.440
<v Speaker 1>the Times spent not on messaging about the border, about healthcare,

0:12:29.920 --> 0:12:34.319
<v Speaker 1>about growing the economy, about winning the trade dispute with China,

0:12:34.400 --> 0:12:39.320
<v Speaker 1>instead of a media and a republican apparatus focus on

0:12:39.360 --> 0:12:41.840
<v Speaker 1>those issues which could benefit the lives of the people

0:12:41.840 --> 0:12:45.840
<v Speaker 1>in this country. In real ways. We have had to say, no,

0:12:46.040 --> 0:12:49.319
<v Speaker 1>the President's not a Russian trader. No, only crazy people

0:12:49.360 --> 0:12:53.560
<v Speaker 1>believe that the Russians help them steal the election. But unfortunately,

0:12:53.559 --> 0:12:55.640
<v Speaker 1>there are like tens of millions of crazy people running around,

0:12:56.559 --> 0:13:02.320
<v Speaker 1>and there's a very powerful still mainstream media that was

0:13:02.360 --> 0:13:08.240
<v Speaker 1>able to leverage that feeling of sore loserism among the

0:13:08.280 --> 0:13:11.920
<v Speaker 1>pro Hillary and pro Bernie contingents and to weaponize it

0:13:12.200 --> 0:13:16.719
<v Speaker 1>into a kind of mass hysteria. And that mass hysteria

0:13:16.840 --> 0:13:21.400
<v Speaker 1>alone has been an anchor on the Trump administration. It

0:13:21.440 --> 0:13:24.720
<v Speaker 1>has slowed it down. It has made life more difficult

0:13:24.720 --> 0:13:28.280
<v Speaker 1>for Trump and for all those around him. And it's

0:13:28.320 --> 0:13:32.280
<v Speaker 1>just it's a crime for which there will never be justice.

0:13:32.760 --> 0:13:36.000
<v Speaker 1>What was done to Trump is a crime for which

0:13:36.080 --> 0:13:40.440
<v Speaker 1>there will never be justice, and that is disappointing, to

0:13:40.480 --> 0:13:44.240
<v Speaker 1>say the least. Even if this pro bands, I do

0:13:44.320 --> 0:13:47.520
<v Speaker 1>not believe that there will be hell to pay for

0:13:47.559 --> 0:13:51.120
<v Speaker 1>those that will be shown. People like McCabe and Comby

0:13:51.240 --> 0:13:56.720
<v Speaker 1>and who knows who else Rosenstein shown to be political

0:13:56.760 --> 0:14:01.960
<v Speaker 1>players who put themselves in this enter of a food

0:14:01.960 --> 0:14:05.320
<v Speaker 1>fight that they really started and then pretended to have

0:14:05.400 --> 0:14:10.800
<v Speaker 1>nothing to do with, and has done real damage in

0:14:10.800 --> 0:14:15.160
<v Speaker 1>this country to our ability to talk to each other

0:14:15.200 --> 0:14:17.439
<v Speaker 1>about politics, for one, I mean, it's never been more

0:14:17.480 --> 0:14:20.400
<v Speaker 1>heated right now. I mean the left has gone completely insane.

0:14:21.160 --> 0:14:23.840
<v Speaker 1>It's very difficult to speak to anybody who is truly

0:14:23.880 --> 0:14:28.400
<v Speaker 1>a Democrat, true believer about any of this stuff because

0:14:29.280 --> 0:14:31.560
<v Speaker 1>a lot of them have been saying that the president's

0:14:31.560 --> 0:14:33.160
<v Speaker 1>a trader. I mean, how do you have a conversation

0:14:33.200 --> 0:14:36.520
<v Speaker 1>with somebody who believes that. Where is the common ground

0:14:36.560 --> 0:14:39.440
<v Speaker 1>you find with someone who walks around thinking that the

0:14:39.440 --> 0:14:43.000
<v Speaker 1>President United States betrayed his country, sold out his country

0:14:43.040 --> 0:14:47.320
<v Speaker 1>on behalf of Vladimir Putin, CNN, MSNBC, all these places

0:14:47.320 --> 0:14:53.880
<v Speaker 1>where they say that it's just madness. Is the madness

0:14:53.880 --> 0:14:58.360
<v Speaker 1>going to end this week? No? But well we at

0:14:58.400 --> 0:15:01.640
<v Speaker 1>least maybe end one major chapter of it. I certainly

0:15:01.720 --> 0:15:04.960
<v Speaker 1>hope so a team, I cannot make any promises. We

0:15:05.040 --> 0:15:07.840
<v Speaker 1>will discuss the universal basic income this hower. I meant

0:15:07.840 --> 0:15:10.440
<v Speaker 1>to get to that yesterday. Andrew Yang, this kind of

0:15:10.480 --> 0:15:14.120
<v Speaker 1>out of nowhere Democrat presidential hopeful, has made it one

0:15:14.120 --> 0:15:20.760
<v Speaker 1>of his major policy policy proposals, and it's a it's interesting.

0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:22.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'm not saying it's a good idea, but

0:15:22.120 --> 0:15:23.760
<v Speaker 1>it's an interesting idea, and it has a lot of

0:15:23.800 --> 0:15:26.240
<v Speaker 1>different facets to it. I meant to get to it yesterday.

0:15:26.280 --> 0:15:28.040
<v Speaker 1>I got so wrapped up in other topics. We didn't

0:15:28.040 --> 0:15:30.040
<v Speaker 1>get to it yesterday. We will get to it um.

0:15:30.160 --> 0:15:33.160
<v Speaker 1>And also we've got some updates on immigration and the

0:15:33.200 --> 0:15:38.160
<v Speaker 1>benefits of rejection. I want to give you a I

0:15:38.200 --> 0:15:40.920
<v Speaker 1>want to rally you to the cause of being rejected.

0:15:41.280 --> 0:15:49.320
<v Speaker 1>That's coming later on the show. Stay with me. I

0:15:49.360 --> 0:15:51.640
<v Speaker 1>don't mind. I mean, frankly, I told the house, if

0:15:51.680 --> 0:15:55.000
<v Speaker 1>you want let him see it again. I say, a

0:15:55.200 --> 0:16:00.000
<v Speaker 1>deputy because of the fact that the Attorney General didn't

0:16:00.480 --> 0:16:04.160
<v Speaker 1>have the courage to do it himself. A deputy that's

0:16:04.160 --> 0:16:08.080
<v Speaker 1>appointed appoint to another Manda right a report explain that

0:16:08.200 --> 0:16:13.440
<v Speaker 1>because my voters don't get it. Yeah, he's right. You know,

0:16:13.440 --> 0:16:16.440
<v Speaker 1>we've had Annie McCarthy on the show and he said

0:16:16.480 --> 0:16:19.640
<v Speaker 1>that he doesn't even think that the Mueller probe was

0:16:19.760 --> 0:16:23.880
<v Speaker 1>properly constituted. From the beginning, it never established a crime

0:16:23.920 --> 0:16:26.520
<v Speaker 1>that it was investigating. It just said, so people have

0:16:26.600 --> 0:16:29.680
<v Speaker 1>a theory about something that maybe happened, not a crime though,

0:16:29.760 --> 0:16:32.840
<v Speaker 1>just like a theory about Russia doing something maybe and

0:16:33.160 --> 0:16:38.560
<v Speaker 1>let's just look around. It was a counter intelligence investigation

0:16:39.200 --> 0:16:42.080
<v Speaker 1>that took on a life of its own, and counterintelligence

0:16:42.160 --> 0:16:47.480
<v Speaker 1>investigations are supposed to be very clearly confined to the

0:16:47.600 --> 0:16:50.480
<v Speaker 1>national security realm and not a weapon of politics. But

0:16:50.560 --> 0:16:54.720
<v Speaker 1>that's what happened. So yes, I think the Muller Report

0:16:54.920 --> 0:16:57.680
<v Speaker 1>should be made public. I think the people do have

0:16:58.240 --> 0:17:00.680
<v Speaker 1>a right to see. I think we should see what

0:17:00.880 --> 0:17:04.480
<v Speaker 1>is in the Mula report, and that means at least

0:17:04.480 --> 0:17:08.080
<v Speaker 1>the sections of it that aren't going to be heavily redacted.

0:17:08.760 --> 0:17:11.639
<v Speaker 1>I want to see it. And I'm just gonna prepare

0:17:11.680 --> 0:17:13.639
<v Speaker 1>you all for this. Though, no matter what, no matter

0:17:13.840 --> 0:17:16.439
<v Speaker 1>what it says, no matter what is in fact in

0:17:17.200 --> 0:17:20.600
<v Speaker 1>the Mulla Report, Democrats will try to claim some form

0:17:20.680 --> 0:17:23.160
<v Speaker 1>of victory. They'd be like, yes, we are the champions.

0:17:23.880 --> 0:17:26.199
<v Speaker 1>You know it did a great job. They're gonna be

0:17:26.240 --> 0:17:27.600
<v Speaker 1>like the kid that stands up in front of the

0:17:27.640 --> 0:17:30.639
<v Speaker 1>class to recite the poem and only gets out the

0:17:30.640 --> 0:17:33.000
<v Speaker 1>title and then says d end and sits down and

0:17:33.040 --> 0:17:35.400
<v Speaker 1>smiles and thinks that they've done a great job. That

0:17:35.440 --> 0:17:39.359
<v Speaker 1>will be Democrats with the Maula Report. They it doesn't

0:17:39.359 --> 0:17:41.720
<v Speaker 1>matter what's in there, they're gonna claim victory. By the way,

0:17:41.840 --> 0:17:44.440
<v Speaker 1>just because we're having some fun with the Trumpster today. Man,

0:17:44.480 --> 0:17:47.160
<v Speaker 1>here's what he said about Kelly and Conway's husband, which

0:17:48.080 --> 0:17:49.800
<v Speaker 1>it was a pretty it was a pretty wow moment.

0:17:49.880 --> 0:17:56.080
<v Speaker 1>Play thirteen. Well, I don't know him. Yeah, I don't

0:17:56.119 --> 0:17:58.639
<v Speaker 1>know him. He's a whack job, there's no question about it.

0:17:58.680 --> 0:18:02.000
<v Speaker 1>But I really don't know him. I think he's doing

0:18:02.040 --> 0:18:05.600
<v Speaker 1>a tremendous disservice to a wonderful wife. Kelly Anne is

0:18:05.680 --> 0:18:09.520
<v Speaker 1>a wonderful woman, and I call him mister Kelly in

0:18:10.480 --> 0:18:14.159
<v Speaker 1>the fact is that he's doing a tremendous disservice to

0:18:14.800 --> 0:18:19.800
<v Speaker 1>a wife and family. She's a wonderful woman, wonderful woman.

0:18:20.720 --> 0:18:24.280
<v Speaker 1>And Trump, Hey, he's loyal to his people, even if

0:18:24.320 --> 0:18:26.000
<v Speaker 1>it means he gets into a family feud. What can

0:18:26.040 --> 0:18:29.399
<v Speaker 1>I tell you? Universal basic income, it's a very interesting idea.

0:18:29.560 --> 0:18:33.879
<v Speaker 1>It's also a quick bridge to a much larger state

0:18:34.520 --> 0:18:38.560
<v Speaker 1>and to redistribution and socialism. Democrats are putting it out there.

0:18:38.560 --> 0:18:40.320
<v Speaker 1>I think it's going to get traction. Let's talk about

0:18:40.320 --> 0:18:43.040
<v Speaker 1>that and then we'll talk immigration. Stay with me. I'm

0:18:43.040 --> 0:18:45.720
<v Speaker 1>proposing that we declare a dividend of a thousand dollars

0:18:45.720 --> 0:18:48.320
<v Speaker 1>a month for every American adult starting at EGT. That's

0:18:48.320 --> 0:18:51.639
<v Speaker 1>a universal basic income. Yes, proposed the universal basic income,

0:18:51.680 --> 0:18:54.280
<v Speaker 1>which I rebranded the Freedom Dividend because it tests better

0:18:54.320 --> 0:18:56.359
<v Speaker 1>with more Americans with the word freedom in it. A

0:18:56.440 --> 0:18:59.560
<v Speaker 1>universal based income is a policy where every citizen in

0:18:59.560 --> 0:19:01.439
<v Speaker 1>a country it's a certain amount of money, free and

0:19:01.440 --> 0:19:03.720
<v Speaker 1>clear to do whatever they want. So my plan, the

0:19:03.720 --> 0:19:06.719
<v Speaker 1>Freedom Dividend, would give every American adult a thousand dollars

0:19:06.720 --> 0:19:08.560
<v Speaker 1>a month twelve thousand dollars a year is during at

0:19:08.600 --> 0:19:11.480
<v Speaker 1>age eighteen. This would create millions of jobs around the

0:19:11.480 --> 0:19:14.440
<v Speaker 1>country and would allow families and individuals to help manage

0:19:15.080 --> 0:19:18.640
<v Speaker 1>this historic transition that we're in. I believe that every

0:19:18.680 --> 0:19:21.000
<v Speaker 1>American adult at the age of eighteen should get a

0:19:21.040 --> 0:19:23.840
<v Speaker 1>thousand dollars a month, free and clear from the government

0:19:23.880 --> 0:19:27.920
<v Speaker 1>to do whatever they want. For working hot right, oh,

0:19:28.000 --> 0:19:35.760
<v Speaker 1>for being a citizen of this great country. Universal basic income. Folks,

0:19:35.800 --> 0:19:39.159
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna be hearing more about it. The cool kids

0:19:39.240 --> 0:19:43.440
<v Speaker 1>call it that you be not to be confused with

0:19:43.560 --> 0:19:50.119
<v Speaker 1>ub forty rid rid wine. Yeah, d wine, that was terrible.

0:19:50.160 --> 0:19:52.240
<v Speaker 1>I know that's horrible. Please don't stop listening to the

0:19:52.320 --> 0:19:55.119
<v Speaker 1>radio show. Now, that was youb forty though right, at

0:19:55.160 --> 0:20:00.439
<v Speaker 1>least I got that correct. Yeah, I like I like

0:20:00.520 --> 0:20:05.399
<v Speaker 1>my UB forty. But UBI universal Basic Income has been

0:20:05.480 --> 0:20:07.840
<v Speaker 1>endorsed by many on the left. It does have some

0:20:08.040 --> 0:20:10.800
<v Speaker 1>interesting support on the right, which I will get to.

0:20:12.600 --> 0:20:16.440
<v Speaker 1>The basics of it are pretty straightforward, instead of just

0:20:16.480 --> 0:20:20.959
<v Speaker 1>the welfare state that provides services to people generally, although

0:20:21.440 --> 0:20:24.479
<v Speaker 1>food stamps is really money for food. There as some

0:20:24.520 --> 0:20:28.400
<v Speaker 1>limitations of what you can do with it, but instead

0:20:28.440 --> 0:20:30.679
<v Speaker 1>of a voucher system a thing else, they just straight

0:20:30.760 --> 0:20:35.080
<v Speaker 1>up give you money. A thousand dollars a month was

0:20:35.080 --> 0:20:37.520
<v Speaker 1>the number that Andrew yangmember. He's a Democrat who is

0:20:37.520 --> 0:20:39.200
<v Speaker 1>going to be on the stage, folks. He's going to

0:20:39.280 --> 0:20:42.480
<v Speaker 1>make it onto the initial primary debate stage. He's got

0:20:42.600 --> 0:20:45.679
<v Speaker 1>enough donations and enough support that he's someone you're going

0:20:45.720 --> 0:20:49.560
<v Speaker 1>to hear from. But the idea of the universal basic

0:20:49.640 --> 0:20:52.960
<v Speaker 1>income is that it's just a more efficient way to

0:20:53.080 --> 0:20:57.240
<v Speaker 1>create a safety net for every every person in your country,

0:20:57.840 --> 0:21:01.840
<v Speaker 1>and that it's far less of an onerous bureaucracy than

0:21:01.880 --> 0:21:06.920
<v Speaker 1>which you usually would have with a well with a

0:21:07.000 --> 0:21:10.080
<v Speaker 1>welfare program, which is what this is. Although very quickly

0:21:10.119 --> 0:21:14.440
<v Speaker 1>the UBI can be called the UBI, the UBI will

0:21:14.480 --> 0:21:17.640
<v Speaker 1>be considered an entitlement right that you earn it just

0:21:17.680 --> 0:21:20.280
<v Speaker 1>by being alive, is what people will think. There are

0:21:20.400 --> 0:21:25.040
<v Speaker 1>there are some interesting Oh wait, Mike has the financial

0:21:25.040 --> 0:21:27.040
<v Speaker 1>breakdown on this? Mike, come on, tell me, what are

0:21:27.040 --> 0:21:28.919
<v Speaker 1>you talking about? What do you mean the financial breakdown? So,

0:21:28.960 --> 0:21:32.920
<v Speaker 1>according to the two eighteen US census, there are two

0:21:33.040 --> 0:21:35.760
<v Speaker 1>hundred and fifty three point eight million citizens over eighteen

0:21:35.840 --> 0:21:40.879
<v Speaker 1>years old. So costwise, that would cost US two one

0:21:40.960 --> 0:21:43.480
<v Speaker 1>hundred and fifty three point eight billion a month and

0:21:43.640 --> 0:21:48.240
<v Speaker 1>over three trillion a year if he got what he wanted. Yeah,

0:21:48.240 --> 0:21:53.800
<v Speaker 1>see that seems pretty expensive to me. So I think

0:21:53.840 --> 0:21:56.800
<v Speaker 1>what he'd have to do would be it would be

0:21:56.840 --> 0:22:00.679
<v Speaker 1>means tested, so you'd have to have its thousand dollars

0:22:00.720 --> 0:22:03.439
<v Speaker 1>a month if you make under a certain amount of money,

0:22:03.520 --> 0:22:07.040
<v Speaker 1>that's my guess, and they probably have a phase in period,

0:22:07.080 --> 0:22:09.600
<v Speaker 1>so if you make you know, a certain amount, you

0:22:09.680 --> 0:22:12.159
<v Speaker 1>get a five hundred and then it. But you know,

0:22:12.200 --> 0:22:15.040
<v Speaker 1>Alaska has done this for those listed up in Alaska.

0:22:16.520 --> 0:22:20.480
<v Speaker 1>Alaska in fact, does have something similar to a universal

0:22:20.480 --> 0:22:24.080
<v Speaker 1>basic income, where every resident since nineteen eighty two, out

0:22:24.080 --> 0:22:26.800
<v Speaker 1>of oil revenues, has gotten from a few hundred to

0:22:26.800 --> 0:22:29.720
<v Speaker 1>a couple of thousand dollars a year, you know, just

0:22:30.560 --> 0:22:34.280
<v Speaker 1>no strings attached, just kind of handed to people. The

0:22:34.400 --> 0:22:37.080
<v Speaker 1>advocates of the universal basic income will point to Milton

0:22:37.119 --> 0:22:40.160
<v Speaker 1>Friedman and Martin Luther King Junior, for example, as those

0:22:40.200 --> 0:22:46.919
<v Speaker 1>who supported a basic income structure. Peter Teel has supported it,

0:22:47.000 --> 0:22:51.880
<v Speaker 1>and others who are worried about the coming automation revolution

0:22:52.240 --> 0:22:56.080
<v Speaker 1>that's going to create a mass structural unemployment that's not

0:22:56.160 --> 0:23:00.479
<v Speaker 1>gonna that's not going to be able to be placed

0:23:00.480 --> 0:23:05.800
<v Speaker 1>with other jobs. Essentially AI making so many jobs obsolete

0:23:05.840 --> 0:23:08.440
<v Speaker 1>that you're going to have a huge no one knows

0:23:08.440 --> 0:23:10.000
<v Speaker 1>what the number is, but a huge chunk of the

0:23:10.000 --> 0:23:13.120
<v Speaker 1>workforce just permanently out of work, and so you'll need

0:23:13.160 --> 0:23:15.719
<v Speaker 1>to give them some form of income so they can

0:23:15.760 --> 0:23:20.440
<v Speaker 1>buy products and services and keep the economy going. And

0:23:20.960 --> 0:23:22.879
<v Speaker 1>you know, it does have some support on the left

0:23:22.920 --> 0:23:24.280
<v Speaker 1>on the right, and Mike points out that if you

0:23:24.280 --> 0:23:26.680
<v Speaker 1>did this for everybody would be insanely expensive. But even

0:23:26.680 --> 0:23:31.040
<v Speaker 1>if you only did it for a relatively small porch

0:23:31.119 --> 0:23:35.119
<v Speaker 1>of the country, mean, we already have a trillion dollars

0:23:35.200 --> 0:23:39.080
<v Speaker 1>a year welfare state when you add up Medicaid, food stamps.

0:23:40.640 --> 0:23:43.399
<v Speaker 1>You know, a child the health insurance program and all

0:23:43.400 --> 0:23:46.600
<v Speaker 1>all these different Section eight housing. You've got a trillion

0:23:46.640 --> 0:23:49.040
<v Speaker 1>dollars a year welfare state as it is in America.

0:23:49.160 --> 0:23:50.879
<v Speaker 1>We are much closer. And this is kind of a

0:23:50.880 --> 0:23:53.320
<v Speaker 1>sobering thought, but I think I gotta tell you that things,

0:23:53.320 --> 0:23:56.680
<v Speaker 1>even when they're sobering, we are much closer to European

0:23:56.720 --> 0:24:00.119
<v Speaker 1>style welfare state than a lot of people realize. In

0:24:00.119 --> 0:24:03.040
<v Speaker 1>some ways, we're actually further along the road than some

0:24:03.040 --> 0:24:05.200
<v Speaker 1>of these European states are. I've mentioned to you that

0:24:05.480 --> 0:24:11.800
<v Speaker 1>the Nordic states Denmark, Sweden, Norway have more business friendly

0:24:11.840 --> 0:24:13.600
<v Speaker 1>regulations at the federal level in a lot of ways

0:24:13.600 --> 0:24:15.679
<v Speaker 1>than we do. They had lower tax rates at the

0:24:15.720 --> 0:24:19.639
<v Speaker 1>federal level for corporations, not for individuals, than we have

0:24:19.720 --> 0:24:21.919
<v Speaker 1>had at least I think. I think Denmark definitely does.

0:24:21.960 --> 0:24:25.080
<v Speaker 1>Don't quote me on Norway and Sweden until Trump came

0:24:25.080 --> 0:24:29.920
<v Speaker 1>along and past that corporate tax cut. But universal basic

0:24:30.040 --> 0:24:32.640
<v Speaker 1>income is one of these ideas that gets us closer

0:24:32.680 --> 0:24:37.720
<v Speaker 1>to a change relationship between citizen and state. And he's

0:24:37.880 --> 0:24:43.960
<v Speaker 1>going to get more attention is going to get And

0:24:44.359 --> 0:24:47.000
<v Speaker 1>by the way, yeah, he supported Mike is telling me

0:24:47.040 --> 0:24:53.560
<v Speaker 1>that MLK supported a guaranteed minimum income, so you know,

0:24:53.760 --> 0:24:58.600
<v Speaker 1>these are different. The point is people have thought about this.

0:24:59.200 --> 0:25:02.760
<v Speaker 1>It's going to be a much larger piece of the

0:25:02.760 --> 0:25:07.080
<v Speaker 1>Democrat debate, I think than anyone's hearing right now, because

0:25:07.119 --> 0:25:12.080
<v Speaker 1>there's a real sense that the government owes citizens a

0:25:12.080 --> 0:25:14.879
<v Speaker 1>certain standard of living now and that this is the

0:25:15.080 --> 0:25:16.720
<v Speaker 1>this is the best way to do it would just

0:25:16.760 --> 0:25:20.280
<v Speaker 1>be to give people money. And when you're spending a

0:25:20.320 --> 0:25:22.560
<v Speaker 1>trillion dollars a year more than you're taking in an income,

0:25:23.320 --> 0:25:26.280
<v Speaker 1>adding another trillion dollars a year the national debt, people

0:25:26.280 --> 0:25:28.080
<v Speaker 1>start to think, well, at least at least now they'll

0:25:28.119 --> 0:25:30.159
<v Speaker 1>be a lot of money sloshing around. That'll be a

0:25:30.160 --> 0:25:34.639
<v Speaker 1>good thing. But you know, they also say this is

0:25:34.640 --> 0:25:38.320
<v Speaker 1>a way of really creating some kind of a utopia.

0:25:38.400 --> 0:25:41.399
<v Speaker 1>And that's what you got with o'casio Cortez and she's

0:25:41.400 --> 0:25:43.639
<v Speaker 1>saying there'll be more time for art. And you know,

0:25:43.680 --> 0:25:50.000
<v Speaker 1>when AI structurally changes the employment picture in this country

0:25:50.240 --> 0:25:52.200
<v Speaker 1>so that you have people that are that aren't going

0:25:52.200 --> 0:25:55.600
<v Speaker 1>to get jobs ever again, really that aren't really going

0:25:55.640 --> 0:25:57.159
<v Speaker 1>to be able to participate in labor for us. I

0:25:57.160 --> 0:26:03.120
<v Speaker 1>think that's probably exaggerated, but there are certainly people now

0:26:03.160 --> 0:26:05.159
<v Speaker 1>who will say that we are so productive as a

0:26:05.200 --> 0:26:08.919
<v Speaker 1>society that we can have this, and this is just

0:26:09.000 --> 0:26:12.280
<v Speaker 1>the cost of maintaining a robust and healthy society. And

0:26:12.440 --> 0:26:14.879
<v Speaker 1>essentially the very productive you know, the Googles and the

0:26:14.920 --> 0:26:19.400
<v Speaker 1>facebooks and the Walmarts and all these major companies. There's

0:26:19.440 --> 0:26:22.680
<v Speaker 1>so much wealth that is created that to siphon off

0:26:22.720 --> 0:26:25.920
<v Speaker 1>a portion of it to give to people as a

0:26:26.080 --> 0:26:30.720
<v Speaker 1>ubi is a good idea. I understand it. It's easy

0:26:30.760 --> 0:26:32.720
<v Speaker 1>to dismiss this and just say this is, you know,

0:26:33.000 --> 0:26:36.639
<v Speaker 1>comy claptrap and it's not going anywhere. I think that

0:26:36.720 --> 0:26:38.440
<v Speaker 1>this is going to get a lot of serious attention

0:26:38.480 --> 0:26:41.400
<v Speaker 1>from Democrats because it's an expansion of the welfare state.

0:26:41.440 --> 0:26:43.800
<v Speaker 1>And then you know what happens. It starts at a thousand,

0:26:44.480 --> 0:26:47.359
<v Speaker 1>and what do you think happens after that? Oh, that's right.

0:26:47.359 --> 0:26:49.040
<v Speaker 1>They're gonna want to be two thousand a month or

0:26:49.040 --> 0:26:51.040
<v Speaker 1>fifteen hundred a month, and then it's just going to

0:26:51.160 --> 0:26:53.840
<v Speaker 1>keep going up and up from there. Once you tell

0:26:53.920 --> 0:26:57.040
<v Speaker 1>every American whether they work or not, whether they try

0:26:57.080 --> 0:26:59.000
<v Speaker 1>to work or not, no matter what age they are,

0:26:59.040 --> 0:27:01.760
<v Speaker 1>I guess as long as they're in Once you tell

0:27:01.800 --> 0:27:04.680
<v Speaker 1>them that the government owes them at check every month,

0:27:04.760 --> 0:27:09.040
<v Speaker 1>free and clear. Then the debate becomes how big should

0:27:09.040 --> 0:27:13.359
<v Speaker 1>that check be? And the people that are reliant on

0:27:13.400 --> 0:27:15.840
<v Speaker 1>that check aren't going to care about the drag on

0:27:15.880 --> 0:27:18.680
<v Speaker 1>the overall economy and productivity. They aren't going to care

0:27:18.720 --> 0:27:22.159
<v Speaker 1>about the change and the relationship between citizen and state.

0:27:22.359 --> 0:27:24.359
<v Speaker 1>They're just going to say, I want that check to

0:27:24.400 --> 0:27:28.040
<v Speaker 1>be bigger. And those people will also go and they'll vote,

0:27:28.680 --> 0:27:30.680
<v Speaker 1>and they'll vote down anybody who says we need to

0:27:30.680 --> 0:27:32.080
<v Speaker 1>get rid of this system. In fact, you know what

0:27:32.119 --> 0:27:34.480
<v Speaker 1>they'll do. This is just like out of Democrat playbook.

0:27:34.840 --> 0:27:37.000
<v Speaker 1>They'll vote for anybody who says, let's make the ubi

0:27:37.359 --> 0:27:41.800
<v Speaker 1>even bigger. This is a trojan horse toward socialism. To

0:27:41.960 --> 0:27:43.520
<v Speaker 1>my friends, you just have to look at it through

0:27:43.560 --> 0:27:47.760
<v Speaker 1>the long term. If they're conservative, if they're Republicans, if

0:27:47.800 --> 0:27:51.800
<v Speaker 1>they're in a certain group, there's discrimination and big discrimination.

0:27:51.960 --> 0:27:55.800
<v Speaker 1>So something's happening with those groups of folks that are

0:27:55.880 --> 0:28:00.119
<v Speaker 1>running Facebook and Google and Twitter, and I do think

0:28:00.119 --> 0:28:03.760
<v Speaker 1>we have to get to the bottom of it. He's right,

0:28:05.560 --> 0:28:08.000
<v Speaker 1>He's right. And at the hill where I work, Donald

0:28:08.040 --> 0:28:11.040
<v Speaker 1>Trump Junior wrote a piece that I wanted to share

0:28:11.200 --> 0:28:14.560
<v Speaker 1>with you on what's going on here with big tech.

0:28:15.200 --> 0:28:17.600
<v Speaker 1>It's titled Conservatives face a Tough fight. A is big

0:28:17.640 --> 0:28:22.399
<v Speaker 1>tech censorship expands and he goes into some of the

0:28:22.440 --> 0:28:25.680
<v Speaker 1>details here that censorship of conservatives, this is es Donald

0:28:25.720 --> 0:28:29.640
<v Speaker 1>Trump junior piece in the Hill, becomes evermore flagrant and avert.

0:28:29.720 --> 0:28:32.600
<v Speaker 1>The old arguments about protecting the sanctity of the modern

0:28:32.640 --> 0:28:38.840
<v Speaker 1>public square are now in valid. Our right to freely

0:28:38.960 --> 0:28:43.560
<v Speaker 1>engage in public discourse through speech is undersustained attack, necessitating

0:28:43.600 --> 0:28:47.520
<v Speaker 1>a vigorous defense against the major social media and internet platforms.

0:28:48.200 --> 0:28:51.720
<v Speaker 1>From shadow bands on Facebook and Twitter, to demonetization of

0:28:51.760 --> 0:28:54.920
<v Speaker 1>YouTube videos to pulled ads for Republican candidates at the

0:28:54.960 --> 0:28:58.640
<v Speaker 1>critical junctures of election campaigns. The list of violations against

0:28:58.640 --> 0:29:05.160
<v Speaker 1>the online practices speech of conservatives is long. It's true,

0:29:06.240 --> 0:29:10.240
<v Speaker 1>and finally, it is a situation where we can expect

0:29:10.280 --> 0:29:14.120
<v Speaker 1>there to at least be some honesty in the conversation.

0:29:14.480 --> 0:29:17.120
<v Speaker 1>Right even a year ago, maybe eighteen months ago, they

0:29:17.120 --> 0:29:20.440
<v Speaker 1>would say, oh, there's this is a conservative myth. There's

0:29:20.480 --> 0:29:23.680
<v Speaker 1>no shadow banning. There's no, yes, there is. I know

0:29:23.800 --> 0:29:25.800
<v Speaker 1>people who have been suspended. I know people have been

0:29:25.800 --> 0:29:29.480
<v Speaker 1>shadow banned. And for those of you who don't engage

0:29:29.480 --> 0:29:31.480
<v Speaker 1>in social media in this way and don't really care.

0:29:31.920 --> 0:29:34.480
<v Speaker 1>This is all about This is all about the next generation.

0:29:34.520 --> 0:29:39.320
<v Speaker 1>This is about controlling the narrative today to some degree,

0:29:39.360 --> 0:29:41.520
<v Speaker 1>but even more so in five years and ten years,

0:29:42.080 --> 0:29:45.720
<v Speaker 1>and brainwashing people by determining what they can see without

0:29:45.800 --> 0:29:48.960
<v Speaker 1>letting them even know that editorial decisions are being made.

0:29:49.200 --> 0:29:55.000
<v Speaker 1>In many ways, social media censorship is more pernicious than

0:29:56.000 --> 0:29:59.960
<v Speaker 1>the bias of the big mainstream media because at least

0:30:00.080 --> 0:30:03.920
<v Speaker 1>with the New York Times, yeah, they they they will

0:30:04.200 --> 0:30:07.520
<v Speaker 1>skew it far left, and they're not honest about what

0:30:07.560 --> 0:30:09.120
<v Speaker 1>they do in that regard. And you know, I mean,

0:30:09.160 --> 0:30:11.280
<v Speaker 1>CNN will do fake news, but at least you know

0:30:11.360 --> 0:30:14.720
<v Speaker 1>it's CNN. At least you know it's coming from CNN.

0:30:14.760 --> 0:30:17.560
<v Speaker 1>So you can start from a place of, well, you know,

0:30:17.560 --> 0:30:20.200
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna take this with a grain of salt because

0:30:20.200 --> 0:30:23.080
<v Speaker 1>we know that CNN is full of it sometimes, right,

0:30:23.120 --> 0:30:29.040
<v Speaker 1>So that's one component of this. But with social media censorship,

0:30:29.200 --> 0:30:31.800
<v Speaker 1>you're just whatever comes into your feed is whatever comes

0:30:31.800 --> 0:30:34.480
<v Speaker 1>into your feed. You know, for a lot of people

0:30:34.480 --> 0:30:36.640
<v Speaker 1>who are not spending their days like I am, just

0:30:36.720 --> 0:30:39.520
<v Speaker 1>researching and going through all the different you know, sources

0:30:39.520 --> 0:30:41.880
<v Speaker 1>and news stories and all the rest of it. And

0:30:42.160 --> 0:30:44.440
<v Speaker 1>you're you're whether you're on Facebook or for those the

0:30:44.600 --> 0:30:48.360
<v Speaker 1>small percentage of this audience because generally speaking, talk radio

0:30:48.360 --> 0:30:50.040
<v Speaker 1>on it is not very active on Twitter. Just let

0:30:50.040 --> 0:30:52.480
<v Speaker 1>you know that, which I'm hoping to start to change, folks.

0:30:52.480 --> 0:30:54.920
<v Speaker 1>Gott gotta get more and more you on Twitter follow

0:30:55.000 --> 0:30:56.960
<v Speaker 1>Buck Sex than on Twitter tweet at me, say hi.

0:30:58.520 --> 0:31:03.920
<v Speaker 1>But that censorship. You don't even know what's happening. So

0:31:03.960 --> 0:31:06.200
<v Speaker 1>you're just assuming that whatever pops into your feet is

0:31:06.240 --> 0:31:10.040
<v Speaker 1>the most the most red story, the most credible source,

0:31:10.160 --> 0:31:13.640
<v Speaker 1>the most you know, the most reliable accounting of events.

0:31:14.280 --> 0:31:17.520
<v Speaker 1>And when that's happening day in and day out, the

0:31:18.000 --> 0:31:24.760
<v Speaker 1>effect of the rutinization of the propaganda is profound. It

0:31:24.920 --> 0:31:28.480
<v Speaker 1>changes the way you think about things. I mean to

0:31:28.480 --> 0:31:32.000
<v Speaker 1>take this like an advertising model. You know, they don't

0:31:32.040 --> 0:31:35.200
<v Speaker 1>have a Coca Cola banner that pops up on your

0:31:35.280 --> 0:31:38.120
<v Speaker 1>computer screen because they think that you're just gonna buy

0:31:38.880 --> 0:31:40.760
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna go right away and buy Coca. Though there's

0:31:40.800 --> 0:31:43.800
<v Speaker 1>some of that direct response advertising on the Internet these days,

0:31:43.840 --> 0:31:46.320
<v Speaker 1>for sure, but generally, I mean, they want Coca Cola

0:31:46.320 --> 0:31:48.480
<v Speaker 1>banners up on places because they want you to see

0:31:48.520 --> 0:31:50.800
<v Speaker 1>Coca cola. Then when you see it again and again

0:31:51.000 --> 0:31:53.120
<v Speaker 1>and again. The idea being when you're in a store,

0:31:53.440 --> 0:31:55.120
<v Speaker 1>when you're thinking about what you're gonna drink, guess what

0:31:55.120 --> 0:31:59.160
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna drink Coca Cola. Well, if the Internet giants

0:31:59.200 --> 0:32:03.240
<v Speaker 1>can just tweak the algorithms to set them up so

0:32:03.320 --> 0:32:06.560
<v Speaker 1>that left wing sources are going to get higher placement,

0:32:06.560 --> 0:32:10.960
<v Speaker 1>will be treated with you, they'll be a more revered

0:32:11.040 --> 0:32:15.720
<v Speaker 1>source of information than guess what. That's going to have

0:32:15.760 --> 0:32:18.400
<v Speaker 1>an effect on what people read and how they think

0:32:18.440 --> 0:32:23.520
<v Speaker 1>about these issues, and going forward, it's going to alter

0:32:23.600 --> 0:32:26.200
<v Speaker 1>the national conversation on the most important issues to all

0:32:26.240 --> 0:32:29.240
<v Speaker 1>of us. Donald Trump Junior goes on here in this

0:32:29.320 --> 0:32:31.760
<v Speaker 1>piece in the Hill quote, I certainly had my suspicions

0:32:31.760 --> 0:32:36.920
<v Speaker 1>confirmed when Instagram, which is owned by Facebook, accidentally censored

0:32:36.920 --> 0:32:40.120
<v Speaker 1>a post I made regarding the just Smollett hoax, which

0:32:40.160 --> 0:32:43.040
<v Speaker 1>consequently led me led to me hearing from hundreds of

0:32:43.040 --> 0:32:46.440
<v Speaker 1>my followers about they've been having problems seeing, liking, or

0:32:46.480 --> 0:32:49.880
<v Speaker 1>being able to interact with my posts. Many of them

0:32:49.960 --> 0:32:54.160
<v Speaker 1>even claim that they've had to repeatedly refollow me as

0:32:54.240 --> 0:32:58.880
<v Speaker 1>Instagram keeps unfollowing me on their accounts While nothing about

0:32:58.920 --> 0:33:02.560
<v Speaker 1>big tech censorship of conservatives truly surprises me anymore, it's

0:33:02.600 --> 0:33:05.400
<v Speaker 1>still chilling to see the proof for yourself. If it

0:33:05.440 --> 0:33:08.200
<v Speaker 1>can happen to me, the son of the president, with

0:33:08.320 --> 0:33:11.440
<v Speaker 1>millions of followers on social media, just think about how

0:33:11.480 --> 0:33:14.280
<v Speaker 1>bad it must be for conservatives with smaller followings and

0:33:14.400 --> 0:33:16.840
<v Speaker 1>those who don't have the soapbox or media reach to

0:33:16.920 --> 0:33:22.040
<v Speaker 1>push back when they're being targeted. You know that This

0:33:22.080 --> 0:33:25.320
<v Speaker 1>reminds me of how many of us rallied around my

0:33:25.360 --> 0:33:28.280
<v Speaker 1>friend Jesse Kelly when he got banned from Twitter, and

0:33:28.320 --> 0:33:31.240
<v Speaker 1>how the editor in chief of The Daily Caller recently

0:33:31.400 --> 0:33:35.160
<v Speaker 1>was kicked off a Twitter for or suspended for tweeting

0:33:35.480 --> 0:33:38.000
<v Speaker 1>the phrase learn to code. You know what I mean.

0:33:38.160 --> 0:33:42.440
<v Speaker 1>The left, they can whine about this and say it's

0:33:42.440 --> 0:33:44.560
<v Speaker 1>not happening as much they want. It is happening to

0:33:44.880 --> 0:33:51.440
<v Speaker 1>people that I know. And this is so much more

0:33:51.480 --> 0:33:56.640
<v Speaker 1>important than Russian interference in the election. Is liberal collusion

0:33:56.800 --> 0:34:01.040
<v Speaker 1>behind the scenes at the biggest social media platforms to

0:34:01.200 --> 0:34:05.640
<v Speaker 1>alter what people think and for the election, and to

0:34:05.720 --> 0:34:10.400
<v Speaker 1>change minds to shape perception. I mean, the only places

0:34:10.440 --> 0:34:13.799
<v Speaker 1>like Google and Facebook and Twitter are really able now

0:34:13.880 --> 0:34:17.520
<v Speaker 1>because of their market share and the power of those platforms.

0:34:17.880 --> 0:34:22.440
<v Speaker 1>They are able to do information operations against the American people,

0:34:23.080 --> 0:34:26.800
<v Speaker 1>and they're able to hide it from us very very well.

0:34:27.320 --> 0:34:31.760
<v Speaker 1>And their wildly profitable companies making especially Google and Facebook,

0:34:31.800 --> 0:34:34.640
<v Speaker 1>making a tremendous amount of cash billions and billions and

0:34:34.680 --> 0:34:39.160
<v Speaker 1>billions and profits every year. They are the biggest ATM

0:34:39.160 --> 0:34:40.880
<v Speaker 1>machines on the planet in many ways. I mean, the

0:34:40.960 --> 0:34:43.640
<v Speaker 1>only thing that rivals them are the biggest oil companies.

0:34:44.520 --> 0:34:48.239
<v Speaker 1>And they're able to do all this while pretending to

0:34:48.400 --> 0:34:52.719
<v Speaker 1>be platforms for free speech and fair debate and discussion.

0:34:52.960 --> 0:34:57.520
<v Speaker 1>And it's time that we call them to account. It's

0:34:57.560 --> 0:35:00.960
<v Speaker 1>time that we do more to expose the truth here.

0:35:01.000 --> 0:35:05.080
<v Speaker 1>You know that the president is supposed to You know,

0:35:05.120 --> 0:35:06.880
<v Speaker 1>this issue is getting a lot of attention. I believe

0:35:06.920 --> 0:35:10.160
<v Speaker 1>tomorrow the President is going to be signing an executive

0:35:10.239 --> 0:35:13.680
<v Speaker 1>order that tells college campuses that they have to institute

0:35:13.680 --> 0:35:16.440
<v Speaker 1>the First Amendment. You know, we are in the middle

0:35:16.440 --> 0:35:19.080
<v Speaker 1>of a major battle with the social media platforms, with

0:35:19.160 --> 0:35:23.400
<v Speaker 1>college campus censorship, a major battle for the heart and

0:35:23.520 --> 0:35:29.600
<v Speaker 1>soul of the First Amendment and conservatism. To my surprise

0:35:29.680 --> 0:35:32.359
<v Speaker 1>at some level, but it certainly makes me happy. Conservatism

0:35:32.400 --> 0:35:35.400
<v Speaker 1>is rallying here and seems to be rising to the

0:35:35.480 --> 0:35:38.840
<v Speaker 1>challenge somewhat. Because if they can control the conversation, we

0:35:38.880 --> 0:35:41.160
<v Speaker 1>will lose the debate. If they can control the parameters

0:35:41.160 --> 0:35:44.560
<v Speaker 1>and the platforms, we're dumb before we even start. So

0:35:44.680 --> 0:35:47.239
<v Speaker 1>that's why it's important that we fight on this. When

0:35:47.280 --> 0:35:50.240
<v Speaker 1>it comes to buying wine, most people selections have nothing

0:35:50.280 --> 0:35:52.279
<v Speaker 1>to do with taste, you know. They usually just base

0:35:52.400 --> 0:35:56.600
<v Speaker 1>decisions on which bottle looks the coolest or what's on sale. Thankfully,

0:35:56.800 --> 0:35:59.440

0:36:49.680 --> 0:36:52.960
<v Speaker 1>Ninth Circuit decided once again. In the Ninth Circuit, in

0:36:53.120 --> 0:36:55.600
<v Speaker 1>contrast to every other circuit in the country, they decide

0:36:55.600 --> 0:36:58.000
<v Speaker 1>to reinterpret the law to say no if they get

0:36:58.040 --> 0:37:00.520
<v Speaker 1>relief from a prisoner or a jail and ice closes

0:37:00.560 --> 0:37:03.840
<v Speaker 1>and finds them that they're required a bond hearing, or

0:37:03.880 --> 0:37:05.320
<v Speaker 1>if they would have gotten straight out of jail and

0:37:05.320 --> 0:37:07.080
<v Speaker 1>then our because they wouldn't have got a bond hearing,

0:37:07.560 --> 0:37:10.520
<v Speaker 1>the Ninth Circuit overturned, you know, they put it on

0:37:10.560 --> 0:37:13.160
<v Speaker 1>his head. Supreme Court said, no, we're going to go

0:37:13.239 --> 0:37:15.680
<v Speaker 1>back the way it should be supposed to be. This

0:37:15.719 --> 0:37:18.319
<v Speaker 1>isn't just for every criminal amien out there. This is

0:37:18.360 --> 0:37:22.440
<v Speaker 1>there's a specified type of criminal and an aggravated feelies.

0:37:22.440 --> 0:37:26.040
<v Speaker 1>We're talking about people convicted of serious crimes like rape, murder,

0:37:26.239 --> 0:37:29.560
<v Speaker 1>armed robbie, sexual assault. These people shouldn't be free walking

0:37:29.600 --> 0:37:31.960
<v Speaker 1>our communities anyways. Number one, they're in the country illegally,

0:37:32.160 --> 0:37:34.680
<v Speaker 1>and number two their public safety threat were the Ninth

0:37:34.719 --> 0:37:37.120
<v Speaker 1>Circuit rule on this. We got to put this in context. Now,

0:37:37.160 --> 0:37:40.880
<v Speaker 1>who's in the Ninth Circuit California, Oregon, the state of

0:37:40.920 --> 0:37:44.680
<v Speaker 1>Washington all heavy sanctuary states. These are these are states

0:37:44.719 --> 0:37:47.480
<v Speaker 1>where criminal alians are released out to the public, criminals,

0:37:47.520 --> 0:37:50.600
<v Speaker 1>public safety threats, rather than turning over the ICE. So

0:37:50.680 --> 0:37:53.799
<v Speaker 1>this decision was devastating in these states and made it

0:37:53.920 --> 0:37:56.319
<v Speaker 1>much more dangerous not only for our communities but for

0:37:56.400 --> 0:37:58.600
<v Speaker 1>ICE officers who could have got custy in the jail.

0:37:58.880 --> 0:38:01.080
<v Speaker 1>But now, because of the same sort of city policies,

0:38:01.280 --> 0:38:04.000
<v Speaker 1>they have to locate these people in their community, in

0:38:04.120 --> 0:38:06.920
<v Speaker 1>their homes, on their turf, where they have access to

0:38:06.920 --> 0:38:09.359
<v Speaker 1>who knows what weapons. This is a huge win from

0:38:09.360 --> 0:38:12.839
<v Speaker 1>the menum winners. It keeps them a little safer. There's

0:38:12.880 --> 0:38:14.360
<v Speaker 1>Tom home and weighing in on what I told you

0:38:14.400 --> 0:38:17.919
<v Speaker 1>about yesterday. Supreme Court saying, no, no rule of law

0:38:18.000 --> 0:38:21.040
<v Speaker 1>still matters when it comes to immigration. You don't get

0:38:21.040 --> 0:38:23.960
<v Speaker 1>to just rewrite it. Ninth Circuit Court of appeals because

0:38:24.040 --> 0:38:26.319
<v Speaker 1>you prefer a different outcome. That's not how the law

0:38:26.400 --> 0:38:30.480
<v Speaker 1>is supposed to work. So it's a win. As I said,

0:38:30.560 --> 0:38:32.440
<v Speaker 1>and as Tom says, and I always like to check

0:38:32.480 --> 0:38:34.640
<v Speaker 1>him with Tom whant to see him over at Fox News.

0:38:34.680 --> 0:38:38.360
<v Speaker 1>We exchanged thoughts on immigration, and I'm looking forward to

0:38:38.440 --> 0:38:41.440
<v Speaker 1>getting a whole lot of time on the ground in

0:38:41.480 --> 0:38:43.600
<v Speaker 1>El Paso next week. I'm gonna be right there in

0:38:43.640 --> 0:38:48.960
<v Speaker 1>the midst of all this craziness at the border, because

0:38:49.000 --> 0:38:51.400
<v Speaker 1>while we did get a victory from the Supreme Court

0:38:51.920 --> 0:38:55.440
<v Speaker 1>in terms of immigration enforcement and rule of law, the

0:38:55.520 --> 0:38:59.719
<v Speaker 1>system is overwhelmed and it's about to burst. It's just

0:39:00.040 --> 0:39:02.920
<v Speaker 1>in a free fall right now. This is from the

0:39:02.960 --> 0:39:07.640
<v Speaker 1>Wall Street Journal today. The Trump administration plans to start

0:39:07.680 --> 0:39:12.480
<v Speaker 1>pulling back on a controversial plank of US immigration policy

0:39:12.920 --> 0:39:16.960
<v Speaker 1>in a busy border region, saying Tuesday will stop sending

0:39:16.960 --> 0:39:20.440
<v Speaker 1>some migrant families who illegally cross the border in Texas's

0:39:20.520 --> 0:39:24.920
<v Speaker 1>Rio Grande Valley to jail or Rio Grande? Do we

0:39:24.920 --> 0:39:28.879
<v Speaker 1>say Rio Grande? Yeah? Rio Grande? My bad? The Rio

0:39:28.960 --> 0:39:37.360
<v Speaker 1>grand Which one? Is it? Anybody, Bueller, Brandon, Mike? What

0:39:37.440 --> 0:39:41.080
<v Speaker 1>do we say? Do we say? Grand? Right? This is America,

0:39:41.320 --> 0:39:44.719
<v Speaker 1>the Rio Grande St. Louis or Saint Louis. I don't know.

0:39:44.840 --> 0:39:47.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure that in Texas, who's listening to this is like, fuck,

0:39:47.120 --> 0:39:49.600
<v Speaker 1>you're such a city slicker, get get it together. Well,

0:39:49.600 --> 0:39:51.360
<v Speaker 1>I'll know next week because I'll be down there in

0:39:51.400 --> 0:39:55.879
<v Speaker 1>the valley of the Grand River. Anyway, Starting this week,

0:39:56.000 --> 0:39:58.319
<v Speaker 1>hundreds of families caught each day in that area are

0:39:58.360 --> 0:40:01.400
<v Speaker 1>being released by border patrol agents instead of being handed

0:40:01.440 --> 0:40:05.040
<v Speaker 1>over to Immigration and Customs and forrestment for potentially longer detention.

0:40:05.560 --> 0:40:07.759
<v Speaker 1>The exact numbers will depend on how many there is

0:40:07.840 --> 0:40:11.640
<v Speaker 1>room for and ice detention facilities, which have filled up

0:40:13.120 --> 0:40:16.200
<v Speaker 1>as a recorded volume of families are crossing the border.

0:40:16.440 --> 0:40:18.960
<v Speaker 1>The officials said they're making the change because of crowding

0:40:18.960 --> 0:40:23.920
<v Speaker 1>and safety concerns. End quote, guys, this is overwhelming the system.

0:40:24.040 --> 0:40:27.880
<v Speaker 1>That is what is going on here. That is explicitly

0:40:28.280 --> 0:40:34.200
<v Speaker 1>and clearly what is happening. They are overwhelming the system.

0:40:34.280 --> 0:40:40.399
<v Speaker 1>This is intentional. This is a strategy. They know that

0:40:40.440 --> 0:40:42.839
<v Speaker 1>they're because the word gets out. I mean, look, I'm

0:40:42.840 --> 0:40:44.719
<v Speaker 1>reading it out of one of the biggest newspapers in

0:40:44.760 --> 0:40:47.600
<v Speaker 1>the country. The word is out. It travels very fast

0:40:47.680 --> 0:40:50.799
<v Speaker 1>online and you know, you have these different not not

0:40:50.880 --> 0:40:53.440
<v Speaker 1>just within the migrant groups themselves, but you have different

0:40:53.480 --> 0:40:58.799
<v Speaker 1>communities of activists and legal aid teams that all they

0:40:58.840 --> 0:41:01.640
<v Speaker 1>want to do is find ways to make sure that

0:41:02.160 --> 0:41:06.799
<v Speaker 1>illegal aliens can stay in America forever, and anyone who

0:41:06.800 --> 0:41:09.080
<v Speaker 1>shows up who's illegal will stay as long as as

0:41:09.120 --> 0:41:12.200
<v Speaker 1>as he or she wants to that. That is their purpose.

0:41:13.320 --> 0:41:15.440
<v Speaker 1>And border patrol is at a point now where they're

0:41:15.440 --> 0:41:20.160
<v Speaker 1>just saying, look, we can't continue to even hold them

0:41:20.200 --> 0:41:25.120
<v Speaker 1>on a short term basis down in Texas because we

0:41:25.200 --> 0:41:28.840
<v Speaker 1>don't have the facilities for them. We just don't. We're

0:41:28.880 --> 0:41:33.560
<v Speaker 1>not We're not able to do it. They have clearly

0:41:33.640 --> 0:41:38.080
<v Speaker 1>overwhelmed the system. And you know, I've been saying this

0:41:38.160 --> 0:41:40.160
<v Speaker 1>was going to happen. I mean, it's been in the

0:41:40.239 --> 0:41:44.879
<v Speaker 1>process of happening. Now here we are where it could

0:41:44.960 --> 0:41:47.839
<v Speaker 1>not be any more obvious that the system is at

0:41:48.160 --> 0:41:52.960
<v Speaker 1>a breaking point. And do Democrats have anything, Do they

0:41:52.960 --> 0:41:56.640
<v Speaker 1>have any solutions for this? No, because they're on board

0:41:56.680 --> 0:42:02.719
<v Speaker 1>for this, they are in favor of the current situation.

0:42:03.840 --> 0:42:09.400
<v Speaker 1>In fact, here here's a Kirsten Gillibrand just giving it

0:42:09.440 --> 0:42:12.480
<v Speaker 1>away that the plan here the Democrat plan, and this

0:42:12.560 --> 0:42:15.600
<v Speaker 1>is the plan to destroy the Republican Party because we'll

0:42:15.600 --> 0:42:17.600
<v Speaker 1>never be able to compete in another election if they

0:42:17.600 --> 0:42:20.080
<v Speaker 1>get their way with this. The Democrat plan is to

0:42:20.160 --> 0:42:25.839
<v Speaker 1>legalize and then and then register for benefits and then

0:42:25.840 --> 0:42:28.759
<v Speaker 1>register to vote all of the illegals in the country.

0:42:28.800 --> 0:42:30.920
<v Speaker 1>This is This is Kirston Jillibrand when he's not lifting

0:42:31.440 --> 0:42:33.719
<v Speaker 1>her eight pound weights with a with a T shirt on.

0:42:33.800 --> 0:42:36.160
<v Speaker 1>Do you see that? Today? She was trying to do

0:42:36.239 --> 0:42:38.759
<v Speaker 1>the whole I'm hip, look at me do social media.

0:42:39.080 --> 0:42:43.040
<v Speaker 1>Here's what she says about illegal immigration. Play clip one.

0:42:43.280 --> 0:42:46.120
<v Speaker 1>So what will I do? I have a lot of ideas. First,

0:42:46.560 --> 0:42:48.960
<v Speaker 1>we need comprehensive immigration reform. If you were in this,

0:42:53.200 --> 0:42:56.520
<v Speaker 1>do you pay into social Security, to pay your taxes,

0:42:56.840 --> 0:42:59.120
<v Speaker 1>to pay into the local school system, and to have

0:42:59.160 --> 0:43:04.480
<v Speaker 1>a pathways That must happen. This is one of the

0:43:04.520 --> 0:43:11.000
<v Speaker 1>most oft repeated lies of the amnesty crowd. They say, well,

0:43:10.880 --> 0:43:12.839
<v Speaker 1>we just want to we just want to make them

0:43:12.880 --> 0:43:18.480
<v Speaker 1>legal because then they'll pay into all these programs. Right then, No, no, no,

0:43:19.480 --> 0:43:24.280
<v Speaker 1>that's not what's going to Overwhelmingly, illegal immigrants would owe

0:43:24.960 --> 0:43:28.200
<v Speaker 1>nothing in federal income taxes if they were here illegally.

0:43:28.280 --> 0:43:32.279
<v Speaker 1>They don't make enough money, they might pay some you know,

0:43:32.360 --> 0:43:37.799
<v Speaker 1>some taxes along the way, but they would be net beneficiaries.

0:43:38.080 --> 0:43:40.680
<v Speaker 1>In fact, one of the problems that came up with

0:43:40.719 --> 0:43:43.800
<v Speaker 1>the Gang of Eight bill for amnesty, remember Marco Rubio

0:43:43.840 --> 0:43:47.040
<v Speaker 1>and those other senators back in the Obama administration, was

0:43:47.080 --> 0:43:52.799
<v Speaker 1>that they wanted retroactive tax filing, and illegals under that,

0:43:53.520 --> 0:43:56.880
<v Speaker 1>under that system would have been getting a check. They

0:43:57.000 --> 0:44:00.719
<v Speaker 1>begetting a check from the government for missing out on

0:44:00.920 --> 0:44:03.959
<v Speaker 1>some of the large ess from Uncle Sam that comes

0:44:03.960 --> 0:44:06.000
<v Speaker 1>to you if you make under a certain amount of

0:44:06.000 --> 0:44:08.319
<v Speaker 1>money that they could be that's right, they could be

0:44:08.360 --> 0:44:11.840
<v Speaker 1>getting they would be getting paid for having been illegals

0:44:11.840 --> 0:44:16.239
<v Speaker 1>here by the government. We have a twenty two trillion

0:44:16.280 --> 0:44:21.120
<v Speaker 1>dollars national debt, all right, that's from the Americans that

0:44:21.160 --> 0:44:23.240
<v Speaker 1>are already here from assistant that we have the spending

0:44:23.280 --> 0:44:28.040
<v Speaker 1>that we've done, mostly entitlement spending, some war spending to

0:44:28.040 --> 0:44:31.160
<v Speaker 1>twenty two trillion dollars. You think bringing in more people

0:44:31.320 --> 0:44:35.120
<v Speaker 1>who are much more likely as a percentage of the

0:44:35.160 --> 0:44:41.760
<v Speaker 1>general population to be reliant upon welfare benefits about fifty percent.

0:44:41.960 --> 0:44:43.040
<v Speaker 1>And by the way, the people will say that I

0:44:43.080 --> 0:44:45.120
<v Speaker 1>legal Limrans don't get welfare that they're all They just

0:44:45.880 --> 0:44:48.080
<v Speaker 1>it's so hard. There's so many lives, Yes, they do.

0:44:48.480 --> 0:44:50.960
<v Speaker 1>All there has to be is one. If there's a

0:44:51.080 --> 0:44:54.320
<v Speaker 1>household headed by the run by an a legal limerrant,

0:44:54.320 --> 0:44:57.080
<v Speaker 1>but there's one child that is born in the States

0:44:57.120 --> 0:45:00.960
<v Speaker 1>who's a citizen, then everybody else the household is going

0:45:01.000 --> 0:45:04.759
<v Speaker 1>to benefit from the bet from the welfare payments to

0:45:04.880 --> 0:45:08.520
<v Speaker 1>that child as as a citizen child in this country.

0:45:09.360 --> 0:45:12.120
<v Speaker 1>So and and and they the adult in charge of

0:45:12.120 --> 0:45:14.840
<v Speaker 1>them gets to apply for it. And there's a whole system.

0:45:14.920 --> 0:45:19.839
<v Speaker 1>It's just scam after scam after scam, and then all

0:45:19.840 --> 0:45:23.319
<v Speaker 1>the lines around it. But with the system overwhelmed the

0:45:23.320 --> 0:45:27.160
<v Speaker 1>way that it is, the Democrats have no incentive to

0:45:27.160 --> 0:45:29.320
<v Speaker 1>try to change anything. In fact, I think a fourth

0:45:30.120 --> 0:45:37.080
<v Speaker 1>a fourth illegal alien in custody just passed away, just died.

0:45:38.000 --> 0:45:40.880
<v Speaker 1>And do you know what that's going to turn into. Um,

0:45:41.080 --> 0:45:47.280
<v Speaker 1>that's going to turn into a rallying cry for people

0:45:47.520 --> 0:45:53.920
<v Speaker 1>who are upset at how Immigrations and Customs Enforcement handles

0:45:54.080 --> 0:45:57.000
<v Speaker 1>those that are in their custody. They're going to say, oh,

0:45:57.080 --> 0:46:00.960
<v Speaker 1>it's terrible. You remember you had former your government officials

0:46:00.960 --> 0:46:03.560
<v Speaker 1>like Mike Hayden used to be my boss, the CIA

0:46:03.800 --> 0:46:08.880
<v Speaker 1>comparing our border patrol, immigrations and customs enforcement agents to Nazis.

0:46:09.440 --> 0:46:13.279
<v Speaker 1>And remember abolish ice. That was just last summer. So

0:46:13.360 --> 0:46:15.759
<v Speaker 1>now that you've had another person died, they're showing up

0:46:15.760 --> 0:46:19.040
<v Speaker 1>in mass Our system is not meant to handle this.

0:46:19.520 --> 0:46:22.319
<v Speaker 1>They know that, and they're showing up in these very

0:46:22.400 --> 0:46:26.360
<v Speaker 1>large numbers specifically because they know that they can't be processed.

0:46:26.360 --> 0:46:29.200
<v Speaker 1>But because they can't be processed, then they also can't

0:46:29.200 --> 0:46:33.359
<v Speaker 1>necessarily be given entirely adequate medical screening and medical care

0:46:33.480 --> 0:46:36.600
<v Speaker 1>right away, because it's not the Red Cross on the border,

0:46:36.640 --> 0:46:40.120
<v Speaker 1>it's border patrol. But we're gonna be told, oh, they're

0:46:40.160 --> 0:46:43.080
<v Speaker 1>so nasty and they're terrible, and how could they do

0:46:43.160 --> 0:46:47.839
<v Speaker 1>this and all this other stuff. That's what they're gonna say,

0:46:48.080 --> 0:46:50.480
<v Speaker 1>and it's just going to be an emotional argument, bereft

0:46:50.520 --> 0:46:52.480
<v Speaker 1>of reason. Don't you just love it when you find

0:46:52.520 --> 0:46:54.759
<v Speaker 1>a one hundred dollar bill inside a jacket you haven't

0:46:54.840 --> 0:46:57.640
<v Speaker 1>used for ages. It's an incredible feeling. Right you find

0:46:57.760 --> 0:47:00.440
<v Speaker 1>hundreds of dollars maybe sitting in a cab or in

0:47:00.480 --> 0:47:03.040
<v Speaker 1>boxes or in your attic. You know that could come

0:47:03.080 --> 0:47:05.600
<v Speaker 1>from the old four oh one k paperwork You have

0:47:05.760 --> 0:47:07.759
<v Speaker 1>from that job before the last one. You know you

0:47:07.840 --> 0:47:10.399
<v Speaker 1>forgot about it, right, But that money is sitting there

0:47:10.400 --> 0:47:13.120
<v Speaker 1>in that four oh one k gathering financial dust. It

0:47:13.239 --> 0:47:14.759

0:47:54.800 --> 0:47:57.640
<v Speaker 1>that the SAW stems from climate change, but the truth

0:47:57.760 --> 0:48:00.839
<v Speaker 1>is that the water challenges have been around for generations

0:48:01.239 --> 0:48:05.520
<v Speaker 1>and are causing immediate deaths annually. Areas of the world

0:48:05.600 --> 0:48:09.760
<v Speaker 1>have struggled with water availability for centuries and these struggles

0:48:09.800 --> 0:48:15.560
<v Speaker 1>are due to access, geography, infrastructure, and technology or lack thereof.

0:48:17.320 --> 0:48:22.480
<v Speaker 1>That's EPA chief Wheeler Andrew Wheeler, who has said, and

0:48:22.520 --> 0:48:26.080
<v Speaker 1>this is of course getting the environmental is completely freaked out,

0:48:26.719 --> 0:48:33.279
<v Speaker 1>said today in a testimony that water quality around the

0:48:33.320 --> 0:48:36.719
<v Speaker 1>world is a much bigger crisis than climate change. And

0:48:36.760 --> 0:48:39.280
<v Speaker 1>this comes when we're all supposed to be so focused

0:48:39.280 --> 0:48:42.040
<v Speaker 1>on the Green New Deal, right, the big trojan horse

0:48:42.120 --> 0:48:46.160
<v Speaker 1>for socialism, the Green New Deal has people talking about

0:48:46.880 --> 0:48:53.279
<v Speaker 1>changing out all fossil fuels and dramatically shifting how we

0:48:53.360 --> 0:48:58.160
<v Speaker 1>do things with our economy. Meanwhile, there are other issues,

0:48:58.200 --> 0:49:01.360
<v Speaker 1>and you know, right now you have, for example, the

0:49:01.400 --> 0:49:04.960
<v Speaker 1>flooding in the Midwest, terrible flooding. And you know, do

0:49:05.040 --> 0:49:10.520
<v Speaker 1>our friends out in kfab in an Omaha thoughts and

0:49:10.560 --> 0:49:13.480
<v Speaker 1>prayers to everybody out in the state of Nebraska. We

0:49:13.520 --> 0:49:15.000
<v Speaker 1>hope you all are doing all right and they're getting

0:49:15.040 --> 0:49:16.640
<v Speaker 1>you all the assistance that you need, and that the

0:49:16.800 --> 0:49:22.640
<v Speaker 1>waters are receding. But people are saying that that's climate change,

0:49:22.640 --> 0:49:24.360
<v Speaker 1>and that's just not true. There there have been floods

0:49:24.360 --> 0:49:26.640
<v Speaker 1>for you know, look at the Bible, folks, right, there

0:49:26.680 --> 0:49:28.359
<v Speaker 1>have been floods for as long as people have been

0:49:28.400 --> 0:49:33.200
<v Speaker 1>writing in books and longer actually, so you know, flooding

0:49:33.320 --> 0:49:37.880
<v Speaker 1>is just a natural It's a natural disaster in some cases,

0:49:37.880 --> 0:49:40.239
<v Speaker 1>but it's a natural cycle that occurs in different parts world.

0:49:40.280 --> 0:49:44.719
<v Speaker 1>Always has, always will. And this impulse to point to

0:49:45.000 --> 0:49:48.080
<v Speaker 1>every bad thing that happens on our environmental level and

0:49:48.160 --> 0:49:50.680
<v Speaker 1>try to blame climate change for it, climate change for

0:49:50.760 --> 0:49:54.840
<v Speaker 1>it is just not rooted in logic, reason or facts.

0:49:55.600 --> 0:49:59.040
<v Speaker 1>This is this is an emotional an emotional impulse. It

0:49:59.120 --> 0:50:01.880
<v Speaker 1>is driven by the desire that people have to feel

0:50:01.880 --> 0:50:04.560
<v Speaker 1>like they are part of a group that understands this

0:50:04.600 --> 0:50:08.279
<v Speaker 1>problem and is taking the proper action on it. But

0:50:09.280 --> 0:50:12.839
<v Speaker 1>you know, the truth is also that while we're so

0:50:12.920 --> 0:50:18.279
<v Speaker 1>focused on things like the Green New Deal, there are

0:50:19.239 --> 0:50:22.320
<v Speaker 1>much more important things out there that you know, environmentalists

0:50:22.360 --> 0:50:25.080
<v Speaker 1>could be looking at that EPA could be working on

0:50:25.160 --> 0:50:30.040
<v Speaker 1>Play seventeen. As the administrator of the USCPA, I believe

0:50:30.080 --> 0:50:34.520
<v Speaker 1>that water issues are the largest and most immediate environmental

0:50:34.520 --> 0:50:38.759
<v Speaker 1>and public health issue affecting the world right now. By

0:50:38.800 --> 0:50:42.000
<v Speaker 1>water issues, I mean primarily clean and safe drinking water,

0:50:42.640 --> 0:50:50.719
<v Speaker 1>marine litter, and water infrastructure. It's absolutely true a thousand

0:50:51.000 --> 0:50:55.879
<v Speaker 1>children a day die worldwide because of unsafe drinking water.

0:50:55.960 --> 0:50:57.840
<v Speaker 1>A thousand kids a day are dying. A lot of

0:50:57.840 --> 0:51:02.520
<v Speaker 1>them are dying from you know, just bacteria that's very

0:51:02.560 --> 0:51:06.160
<v Speaker 1>easy to eliminate in a drinking water system, but they

0:51:06.160 --> 0:51:08.400
<v Speaker 1>don't have they don't have access to it, and they

0:51:08.400 --> 0:51:10.799
<v Speaker 1>don't have access to the antibiotics to treat the infections

0:51:12.239 --> 0:51:16.439
<v Speaker 1>typhus and cholera and all these different things, all these

0:51:16.440 --> 0:51:21.359
<v Speaker 1>water borne illnesses that you can get. Um. He said

0:51:21.400 --> 0:51:23.440
<v Speaker 1>that most of the threats from climate change are fifty

0:51:23.480 --> 0:51:27.040
<v Speaker 1>to seventy five years out. He's right, yeah, Well, will

0:51:27.080 --> 0:51:29.400
<v Speaker 1>there maybe be some additional climate disruptions in fifty to

0:51:29.440 --> 0:51:32.040
<v Speaker 1>seventy five years? Yeah, I think that's that sounds that's

0:51:32.080 --> 0:51:33.280
<v Speaker 1>not going to be the end of the world. It's

0:51:33.320 --> 0:51:35.400
<v Speaker 1>and I mean this, it is literally not going to

0:51:35.400 --> 0:51:38.200
<v Speaker 1>be the end of the world, which some people think

0:51:38.200 --> 0:51:42.600
<v Speaker 1>it is. But you know, this is why for all

0:51:42.640 --> 0:51:47.520
<v Speaker 1>the virtue signaling of the climate change obsessed left, there's

0:51:47.560 --> 0:51:51.440
<v Speaker 1>a cost to that lunacy. There there are costs to

0:51:51.680 --> 0:51:56.400
<v Speaker 1>their insanity, as in, you don't have unlimited resources, unlimited

0:51:56.440 --> 0:52:01.359
<v Speaker 1>time and energy to approach all different minds of problems.

0:52:01.480 --> 0:52:03.000
<v Speaker 1>You know. It's it's not like you can just say,

0:52:03.040 --> 0:52:06.399
<v Speaker 1>oh well, there's there's plenty to go around in terms

0:52:06.440 --> 0:52:09.080
<v Speaker 1>of the with the EPA and that the problems that

0:52:09.120 --> 0:52:12.560
<v Speaker 1>they can tackle. No, the focus on climate change, the

0:52:12.640 --> 0:52:16.160
<v Speaker 1>way that it has consumed a place like the EPA

0:52:16.200 --> 0:52:18.960
<v Speaker 1>and all the court fights, and you know, that takes

0:52:18.960 --> 0:52:24.920
<v Speaker 1>away from imminent, very real problems about things like drinking

0:52:24.920 --> 0:52:27.640
<v Speaker 1>water here in this country. You know, what happened in Flint,

0:52:27.760 --> 0:52:31.879
<v Speaker 1>Michigan is terrible. It is terrible that people were being

0:52:33.200 --> 0:52:37.080
<v Speaker 1>effectively poisoned by their drinking water in an American city,

0:52:37.440 --> 0:52:42.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, in in our current era there I've I've

0:52:42.680 --> 0:52:45.080
<v Speaker 1>read whole a whole study and in depth study of

0:52:45.800 --> 0:52:50.319
<v Speaker 1>how the projects and I know we're we're down, We're

0:52:50.360 --> 0:52:55.560
<v Speaker 1>on w R Ando in New Orleans, UM. But you

0:52:55.600 --> 0:52:58.160
<v Speaker 1>know the New Orleans some of the New Orleans housing

0:52:58.200 --> 0:53:03.279
<v Speaker 1>projects have terrible lead contamination problems, you know, and those

0:53:03.280 --> 0:53:06.080
<v Speaker 1>have long lasting ramifications for kids who are drinking that

0:53:06.160 --> 0:53:07.960
<v Speaker 1>in their water. And you know, it's it's bad for

0:53:08.000 --> 0:53:09.360
<v Speaker 1>the it's bad for the kids. It's bad for the

0:53:09.440 --> 0:53:12.640
<v Speaker 1>kids kids. And that's happening in this country. You know,

0:53:13.280 --> 0:53:15.919
<v Speaker 1>I think one place where conservatives can make a lot

0:53:15.920 --> 0:53:18.080
<v Speaker 1>of headways to say you know, can you stop with

0:53:18.160 --> 0:53:20.719
<v Speaker 1>your old climate change closes, forest fires and all this

0:53:20.760 --> 0:53:25.480
<v Speaker 1>other nonsense, because there's there's a real need for conservation,

0:53:25.520 --> 0:53:27.719
<v Speaker 1>there's a real need for clean drinking water. I mean,

0:53:28.040 --> 0:53:31.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm all for clean air, clean water. You know, I

0:53:31.640 --> 0:53:35.440
<v Speaker 1>do not want pollution. I just don't buy into this

0:53:35.719 --> 0:53:38.640
<v Speaker 1>catastrophist vision of the world coming to an end because

0:53:38.640 --> 0:53:43.440
<v Speaker 1>of CO two, which is a tiny percentage of atmospheric

0:53:43.480 --> 0:53:47.120
<v Speaker 1>gas to begin with, and is a naturally occurring and

0:53:47.520 --> 0:53:50.840
<v Speaker 1>necessary gas. It's not like we're just it's not like

0:53:50.880 --> 0:53:53.040
<v Speaker 1>we're creating CO two and there was no CO two before.

0:53:54.640 --> 0:53:58.800
<v Speaker 1>But the virtue signaling is not without its own costs,

0:53:58.840 --> 0:54:01.920
<v Speaker 1>And I think that's the biggest single takeaway here. You know,

0:54:02.280 --> 0:54:06.840
<v Speaker 1>if liberals were serious about dealing with environmental issues that

0:54:07.000 --> 0:54:09.799
<v Speaker 1>impact people right now today, and if they wanted to

0:54:09.800 --> 0:54:13.120
<v Speaker 1>save lives, if they want to improve lives, they would

0:54:13.200 --> 0:54:15.439
<v Speaker 1>back up a guy like Wheeler at the EPA who's

0:54:15.480 --> 0:54:20.480
<v Speaker 1>saying that clean drinking water is the biggest single crisis

0:54:20.640 --> 0:54:24.919
<v Speaker 1>because people are dying from not having clean drinking water

0:54:25.040 --> 0:54:28.839
<v Speaker 1>all of the world, and they're getting very sick. And

0:54:29.040 --> 0:54:30.960
<v Speaker 1>over the long term, you could say some are some

0:54:31.080 --> 0:54:34.960
<v Speaker 1>are dying in this country because of that issue. And

0:54:35.400 --> 0:54:37.759
<v Speaker 1>you know, this is really one of the marks of

0:54:38.360 --> 0:54:41.920
<v Speaker 1>civilization as I see them, in the marks of civilization

0:54:42.000 --> 0:54:44.040
<v Speaker 1>that you can always you always know what kind of

0:54:44.080 --> 0:54:47.440
<v Speaker 1>country you're dealing with based on two things. You know,

0:54:47.520 --> 0:54:48.839
<v Speaker 1>you know one of them. I always tell you how

0:54:48.880 --> 0:54:52.200
<v Speaker 1>does a country deal with its trash? And then also

0:54:52.320 --> 0:54:57.839
<v Speaker 1>can you drink the water? If a nation state has

0:54:58.080 --> 0:55:01.400
<v Speaker 1>clean streets for them most part, I'm everyplace has, you know,

0:55:01.480 --> 0:55:04.200
<v Speaker 1>trash dumps here and there, and but but if a

0:55:04.320 --> 0:55:08.560
<v Speaker 1>nation state deals well with its refuse and you can

0:55:08.640 --> 0:55:12.480
<v Speaker 1>drink the water out of the tap, you're you're you're

0:55:12.520 --> 0:55:15.840
<v Speaker 1>in an advanced country. I mean, it's it's it's fool proof, basically,

0:55:15.880 --> 0:55:20.040
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you're in a sophisticated, well off, and well

0:55:20.280 --> 0:55:23.560
<v Speaker 1>ordered nation state. If there's trash everywhere and you can't

0:55:23.600 --> 0:55:26.480
<v Speaker 1>drink the water, you got problems. You got problems. And

0:55:26.800 --> 0:55:29.919
<v Speaker 1>given the technology that exists and the global wealth that's

0:55:29.920 --> 0:55:33.919
<v Speaker 1>out there, there should be fewer and fewer countries that

0:55:34.320 --> 0:55:36.600
<v Speaker 1>have filth all over the streets and filthy water that

0:55:36.640 --> 0:55:38.719
<v Speaker 1>little kids are drinking. But we're not making as much

0:55:38.719 --> 0:55:41.360
<v Speaker 1>progress on this as we can notice how the EPA

0:55:41.440 --> 0:55:43.960
<v Speaker 1>director is getting slammed by the left for this because

0:55:44.000 --> 0:55:47.560
<v Speaker 1>they think it takes away from the much more important

0:55:47.600 --> 0:55:50.680
<v Speaker 1>threat of climate change, which they're delusional. I mean, they're crazy,

0:55:50.760 --> 0:55:53.319
<v Speaker 1>But that's the problem with dealing crazy peoples. It's hard

0:55:53.360 --> 0:55:56.279
<v Speaker 1>to reason with them. I wouldn't entertain that the only

0:55:56.320 --> 0:55:58.400
<v Speaker 1>reason is that they're doing that as they want to

0:55:58.400 --> 0:56:01.200
<v Speaker 1>try and catch up. So if they can't catch up

0:56:01.239 --> 0:56:03.560
<v Speaker 1>through the ballot box by winning an election, they want

0:56:03.560 --> 0:56:05.640
<v Speaker 1>to try doing it in a different way. Now, we

0:56:05.640 --> 0:56:07.959
<v Speaker 1>would have no interest in that whatsoever. It will never happen.

0:56:08.000 --> 0:56:10.920
<v Speaker 1>It won't happen. I guarantee it won't happen for six years.

0:56:11.880 --> 0:56:14.359
<v Speaker 1>I think that it's I'm open to the discussion. I mean,

0:56:14.400 --> 0:56:19.120
<v Speaker 1>there's no question that the popular vote has been diminished

0:56:19.120 --> 0:56:21.920
<v Speaker 1>in terms of making the final decision about who's the

0:56:21.960 --> 0:56:23.879
<v Speaker 1>president of United States, and we need to deal with that.

0:56:24.880 --> 0:56:29.759
<v Speaker 1>So I'm open to the discussion. That is where the

0:56:29.760 --> 0:56:33.840
<v Speaker 1>Democrats are right now, open to a discussion about kicking

0:56:33.840 --> 0:56:36.719
<v Speaker 1>at the load bearing walls of our governmental system just

0:56:36.719 --> 0:56:40.239
<v Speaker 1>to sort of see what happens. And you know, we

0:56:40.680 --> 0:56:43.160
<v Speaker 1>talked about this a little yesterday. I've been thinking more

0:56:43.160 --> 0:56:45.520
<v Speaker 1>about it for the last twenty four hours because it

0:56:45.600 --> 0:56:49.680
<v Speaker 1>really is so brazen what they're doing. It's so obvious

0:56:49.719 --> 0:56:53.920
<v Speaker 1>that this is yet another attempt at a power grab.

0:56:54.280 --> 0:56:58.160
<v Speaker 1>But it's not likely at all to happen. So why

0:56:58.239 --> 0:57:00.200
<v Speaker 1>else do they do it? Well, Because here's the real

0:57:00.280 --> 0:57:04.719
<v Speaker 1>message of Democrats going out there saying, we need to

0:57:04.840 --> 0:57:08.440
<v Speaker 1>change this system. We need to change these different points

0:57:08.480 --> 0:57:10.720
<v Speaker 1>in the system where we have not gotten our way.

0:57:11.880 --> 0:57:15.839
<v Speaker 1>It's that it's illegitimate when they don't get their way,

0:57:16.440 --> 0:57:19.680
<v Speaker 1>and they reinforce this at every turn that the left

0:57:19.760 --> 0:57:23.400
<v Speaker 1>believes that when the government does not deliver to them

0:57:23.400 --> 0:57:29.480
<v Speaker 1>what they want, it cannot be a function of the

0:57:29.560 --> 0:57:34.160
<v Speaker 1>failure of their arguments. It cannot be that maybe they

0:57:34.160 --> 0:57:41.400
<v Speaker 1>were wrong. It has to be a systemic failure from

0:57:41.400 --> 0:57:46.560
<v Speaker 1>within the system itself. It has to be a shortcoming

0:57:46.920 --> 0:57:50.800
<v Speaker 1>of the process. Right, the institutions that they rely on

0:57:50.920 --> 0:57:52.680
<v Speaker 1>need to be reformed so that they can get what

0:57:52.720 --> 0:57:54.840
<v Speaker 1>they want. But it really all does go back to

0:57:54.880 --> 0:57:59.920
<v Speaker 1>this point of illegitimacy as well. They simply do not

0:58:00.200 --> 0:58:05.560
<v Speaker 1>accept that outcomes that government outcomes that they disagree with

0:58:05.920 --> 0:58:08.440
<v Speaker 1>are something that they should have to live with. You know,

0:58:08.800 --> 0:58:11.040
<v Speaker 1>it's never we lost, though they never take the l

0:58:11.280 --> 0:58:13.920
<v Speaker 1>it's never we take that loss. We're going to regroup

0:58:13.920 --> 0:58:17.800
<v Speaker 1>and the next time around will do better. It's we

0:58:17.880 --> 0:58:19.320
<v Speaker 1>need to find a way to make sure that we

0:58:19.360 --> 0:58:22.200
<v Speaker 1>have nothing but w's on our scoreboard, even if we

0:58:22.240 --> 0:58:24.160
<v Speaker 1>have to cheat, even if we have to pay off

0:58:24.200 --> 0:58:29.080
<v Speaker 1>the reps. And that has been pretty pretty open um.

0:58:29.240 --> 0:58:33.280
<v Speaker 1>And I think it's also only possible because not only

0:58:33.280 --> 0:58:37.320
<v Speaker 1>do they think that the the system outcomes that they

0:58:37.440 --> 0:58:41.160
<v Speaker 1>disagree with are inherently illegitimate, they also think that Donald

0:58:41.200 --> 0:58:45.080
<v Speaker 1>Trump is an entirely illegitimate president. And that all ties

0:58:45.120 --> 0:58:47.520
<v Speaker 1>in as well. You know that the system that presented

0:58:47.560 --> 0:58:49.600
<v Speaker 1>them with Donald Trump as the winner of the election

0:58:50.200 --> 0:58:54.560
<v Speaker 1>has to be corrupt, must be reformed, and you know,

0:58:54.640 --> 0:58:56.920
<v Speaker 1>then you look at the Supreme Court's the same thing.

0:58:56.920 --> 0:59:00.880
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Drsh that Drsh. We should have him on radio,

0:59:00.880 --> 0:59:03.240
<v Speaker 1>And I've had him on Rising many times, and I

0:59:03.280 --> 0:59:05.280
<v Speaker 1>never think to say, hey, pressed Dirsh, do you want

0:59:05.280 --> 0:59:07.680
<v Speaker 1>to come on radio? Although when he does Rising, sometimes

0:59:07.680 --> 0:59:09.960
<v Speaker 1>he shows up. He skypes from his office at Harvard,

0:59:10.200 --> 0:59:13.240
<v Speaker 1>and sometimes he shows up and he's all like like,

0:59:13.320 --> 0:59:15.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, yeah, I'm gonna have my jacket on. He's

0:59:15.920 --> 0:59:18.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't have much time here, and he's very Yeah,

0:59:18.600 --> 0:59:20.480
<v Speaker 1>he's curmudgedly. I'm not gonna I'm not gonna lie to

0:59:20.520 --> 0:59:23.760
<v Speaker 1>you guys. He's curmudgingly. But other times he's like, well,

0:59:23.920 --> 0:59:26.880
<v Speaker 1>let's let's have a conversation about the constitution and rule

0:59:26.880 --> 0:59:29.200
<v Speaker 1>of law in this country. Like he's really engaged. So

0:59:29.280 --> 0:59:31.600
<v Speaker 1>I never know which dirsh I'm going to get, and

0:59:31.840 --> 0:59:33.480
<v Speaker 1>when I get the latter one, sometimes like, hey, why

0:59:33.480 --> 0:59:35.400
<v Speaker 1>don't you come on my radio show? Everyone who does

0:59:35.480 --> 0:59:40.640
<v Speaker 1>rising who's not a complete communist, uh, wants to come

0:59:40.640 --> 0:59:43.000
<v Speaker 1>on my radio show. So that that's a pretty easy

0:59:43.040 --> 0:59:45.040
<v Speaker 1>thing to do. I'll be on. I'm I'm a little

0:59:45.160 --> 0:59:48.520
<v Speaker 1>uh what's the word, I'm a little selfish with your time. Team.

0:59:48.680 --> 0:59:50.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't I don't like to share the team's time

0:59:50.720 --> 0:59:52.440
<v Speaker 1>very much. As you've noticed. I know there are a

0:59:52.440 --> 0:59:54.280
<v Speaker 1>lot of radio hosts. When I talk to people to

0:59:54.360 --> 0:59:56.720
<v Speaker 1>say how many how many guests do you have on

0:59:56.760 --> 1:00:00.560
<v Speaker 1>a day, I say, I'm one maybe or two some days,

1:00:01.280 --> 1:00:02.880
<v Speaker 1>but I like to have it. Some days we have to,

1:00:03.080 --> 1:00:04.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, we'll have four guest songs. We just feel

1:00:04.920 --> 1:00:07.080
<v Speaker 1>like having a wide ranging conversation with a bunch of folks,

1:00:07.080 --> 1:00:09.000
<v Speaker 1>and a lot of other days, no guests are any guests.

1:00:09.040 --> 1:00:10.240
<v Speaker 1>I have so much to talk to you about. There's

1:00:10.240 --> 1:00:13.480
<v Speaker 1>so much going on the world. So I'm just I'm

1:00:13.520 --> 1:00:18.000
<v Speaker 1>just a different a different cat in that sense. But

1:00:18.040 --> 1:00:21.800
<v Speaker 1>the Dirsh speaking of a different dude. The Dirsh this

1:00:21.840 --> 1:00:25.160
<v Speaker 1>is what he said about Supreme Court tampering, that the

1:00:25.240 --> 1:00:28.280
<v Speaker 1>Democrats are more than flirting with I mean, they're they're

1:00:28.360 --> 1:00:31.720
<v Speaker 1>really trying to push this idea play five. Well, it's

1:00:31.720 --> 1:00:36.440
<v Speaker 1>a terrible idea, and it just increases the politicization of

1:00:36.440 --> 1:00:39.480
<v Speaker 1>our highest court. The highest Court is supposed to be

1:00:39.680 --> 1:00:43.880
<v Speaker 1>a neutral, objective, nonpartisan institution. As the Chief Justice has said,

1:00:44.240 --> 1:00:47.960
<v Speaker 1>there are no Republican justices or Democratic justices. That's really

1:00:48.000 --> 1:00:51.920
<v Speaker 1>a wish rather than a reality. We the American people,

1:00:52.040 --> 1:00:56.520
<v Speaker 1>have to demand that both parties leave politics out of

1:00:56.560 --> 1:00:59.200
<v Speaker 1>the Supreme Court. So I think it would probably be

1:00:59.240 --> 1:01:03.160
<v Speaker 1>a good thing to have only nine justices. Every idea

1:01:03.200 --> 1:01:07.080
<v Speaker 1>seems worse than previous idea, isn't worse than the status quo.

1:01:07.440 --> 1:01:09.280
<v Speaker 1>We may in the end have to just struggle to

1:01:09.360 --> 1:01:13.280
<v Speaker 1>maintain the current law, because fixing it may produce more

1:01:13.320 --> 1:01:17.919
<v Speaker 1>problems than the problems that currently exist. He's just straight

1:01:18.000 --> 1:01:23.439
<v Speaker 1>up saying it. The plan to pack the Supreme Court

1:01:23.520 --> 1:01:26.000
<v Speaker 1>is a terrible idea, and everybody should understand it's a

1:01:26.080 --> 1:01:29.760
<v Speaker 1>terrible idea. And that they would even they would even

1:01:30.560 --> 1:01:32.760
<v Speaker 1>float this out there just shows you. I mean, there's

1:01:32.760 --> 1:01:36.000
<v Speaker 1>a recklessness right now at the heart of the Democratic Party.

1:01:36.000 --> 1:01:39.800
<v Speaker 1>There's a recklessness. There's a sense that whatever they have

1:01:39.880 --> 1:01:43.240
<v Speaker 1>to say and do in the moment, they'll do. And

1:01:43.520 --> 1:01:47.720
<v Speaker 1>nothing is you know, outside of nothing's outside the realm

1:01:47.760 --> 1:01:53.760
<v Speaker 1>of possibility, whether it's completely reforming critical parts of our

1:01:53.920 --> 1:01:59.600
<v Speaker 1>constitutional order or changing up the Supreme Court. Who can

1:01:59.680 --> 1:02:03.200
<v Speaker 1>vote in elections fell in sixteen year olds, foreigners, Oh,

1:02:03.280 --> 1:02:05.439
<v Speaker 1>just give it time. They're gonna want illegals. They're gonna

1:02:05.440 --> 1:02:07.960
<v Speaker 1>want to legals voting folks. I mean, they're gonna try

1:02:07.960 --> 1:02:10.040
<v Speaker 1>to say that they should legalize them first. But if

1:02:10.320 --> 1:02:11.760
<v Speaker 1>liberals had their way, I mean, this should be a

1:02:11.800 --> 1:02:14.680
<v Speaker 1>fascinating poll, if you could do it right. You know

1:02:14.760 --> 1:02:17.560
<v Speaker 1>what percentage of Liberals believe that if it could be,

1:02:17.800 --> 1:02:20.520
<v Speaker 1>if it could be made legal tomorrow, illegal aliens should

1:02:20.520 --> 1:02:23.480
<v Speaker 1>be allowed to vote in federal elections. A majority of Democrats,

1:02:23.520 --> 1:02:26.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you, would say yes. And I think I

1:02:26.680 --> 1:02:28.640
<v Speaker 1>think seventy to eighty percent of them would say yes.

1:02:28.920 --> 1:02:31.000
<v Speaker 1>I think a strong they would. Their claim would be there,

1:02:31.040 --> 1:02:33.280
<v Speaker 1>They're just people too, They're in our country. They should

1:02:33.280 --> 1:02:35.960
<v Speaker 1>have a say in governance. It's the same argument that

1:02:36.000 --> 1:02:40.600
<v Speaker 1>they make at the local level about these these town

1:02:40.640 --> 1:02:44.600
<v Speaker 1>councils or city councils, places like San Francisco school board elections,

1:02:44.800 --> 1:02:49.960
<v Speaker 1>where they're already saying pretty openly that they think that

1:02:50.000 --> 1:02:52.560
<v Speaker 1>illegals should vote. I mean, and they've tried to pass

1:02:52.640 --> 1:02:55.600
<v Speaker 1>legislation to that effect. One thing we got to keep

1:02:55.640 --> 1:02:58.000
<v Speaker 1>in mind here is also the economy. I just wanted

1:02:58.000 --> 1:03:00.240
<v Speaker 1>to get the actually, you know what we don't have? Yeah,

1:03:00.240 --> 1:03:02.600
<v Speaker 1>we now, we'dn't have time for that right now. See,

1:03:02.680 --> 1:03:05.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm running around with too much stuff we'll have to save.

1:03:06.400 --> 1:03:08.400
<v Speaker 1>Because here's here's my theory, which I'll dive in. Let

1:03:08.440 --> 1:03:10.320
<v Speaker 1>me let me use this as a teaser moment which

1:03:10.320 --> 1:03:13.800
<v Speaker 1>we'll dive into tomorrow. My theory is that if the

1:03:13.800 --> 1:03:16.520
<v Speaker 1>economy is strong, Trump wins in twenty twenty, no question.

1:03:17.440 --> 1:03:20.560
<v Speaker 1>If the economy is shaky, it could be close. If

1:03:20.560 --> 1:03:24.320
<v Speaker 1>the economy hits a rough patch, I think you're going

1:03:24.360 --> 1:03:26.280
<v Speaker 1>to see the rise of socialism in this country, I

1:03:26.360 --> 1:03:29.880
<v Speaker 1>really do. You're going to see someone who is a socialist,

1:03:29.880 --> 1:03:32.640
<v Speaker 1>perhaps an all button name and maybe with Bernie Sanders

1:03:32.800 --> 1:03:35.600
<v Speaker 1>in name as well as an ex president United States.

1:03:35.600 --> 1:03:39.320
<v Speaker 1>So we have to look at the cyclical nature of

1:03:40.160 --> 1:03:43.160
<v Speaker 1>where the economy is right now, on what the debt

1:03:43.200 --> 1:03:45.360
<v Speaker 1>means for us. But maybe we'll do a little more

1:03:45.360 --> 1:03:47.040
<v Speaker 1>of that. But that's the outlier that I think you

1:03:47.200 --> 1:03:50.600
<v Speaker 1>determine everything. So put a pin in that one team.

1:03:50.640 --> 1:03:55.440
<v Speaker 1>We will come back to that on tomorrow. Stay tuned.

1:03:56.440 --> 1:04:01.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm very unhappy that he didn't repeal and replace Obamacare.

1:04:01.440 --> 1:04:04.640
<v Speaker 1>As you know, he campaigned in repealing and replacing Obamacare

1:04:04.680 --> 1:04:06.840
<v Speaker 1>for years, and then he got to a vote and

1:04:06.840 --> 1:04:09.840
<v Speaker 1>he said thumbs down, and our country would have saved

1:04:09.880 --> 1:04:12.320
<v Speaker 1>a trillion dollars and we would have had great healthcare.

1:04:13.000 --> 1:04:16.480
<v Speaker 1>So he campaigned, he told us hours before that he

1:04:16.560 --> 1:04:19.520
<v Speaker 1>was going to repeal and replace, and then for some reason,

1:04:19.600 --> 1:04:22.120
<v Speaker 1>I think I understand the reason he ended up going

1:04:22.160 --> 1:04:24.480
<v Speaker 1>thumbs up. And frankly, had we even known that, I

1:04:24.480 --> 1:04:25.960
<v Speaker 1>think we would have gotten to vote because we could

1:04:25.960 --> 1:04:29.560
<v Speaker 1>have gotten somebody else. So I think that's disgraceful. Plus

1:04:29.600 --> 1:04:31.640
<v Speaker 1>there are other things I was never a fan of

1:04:31.760 --> 1:04:35.560
<v Speaker 1>John McCain, and I never will be. How pathetic that

1:04:35.840 --> 1:04:41.680
<v Speaker 1>fifty Republican senators have said nothing about this incredibly disgraceful

1:04:41.720 --> 1:04:45.120
<v Speaker 1>performance by the President about John McCain, about their long

1:04:45.160 --> 1:04:49.440
<v Speaker 1>time colleague John McCain. They are all such unbelievable cowards

1:04:49.440 --> 1:04:53.600
<v Speaker 1>because they're afraid of Republican primaries. Yeah, we don't need

1:04:53.640 --> 1:04:56.640
<v Speaker 1>to take advice about how to keep our own house

1:04:56.680 --> 1:04:59.400
<v Speaker 1>clean for the Republicans here and how to tidy up

1:04:59.400 --> 1:05:04.720
<v Speaker 1>ourselves from Jeffrey Tubin over at CNN. We got it, Thanks, buddy.

1:05:05.200 --> 1:05:07.000
<v Speaker 1>We don't We don't need your help. We don't need

1:05:07.040 --> 1:05:10.480
<v Speaker 1>your help at all. I find this whole. There's a

1:05:10.520 --> 1:05:13.480
<v Speaker 1>couple of big stories today that aren't big stories at all,

1:05:13.520 --> 1:05:15.680
<v Speaker 1>but the media is making them into much bigger things.

1:05:15.800 --> 1:05:18.800
<v Speaker 1>And one of them is this is this ongoing feud

1:05:18.840 --> 1:05:21.280
<v Speaker 1>with John McCain and President Trump. And now of course

1:05:21.320 --> 1:05:25.480
<v Speaker 1>John McCain's passed away and uh and full disclosure. I mean,

1:05:25.520 --> 1:05:28.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm a I'm a friend and uh uh and

1:05:28.480 --> 1:05:31.520
<v Speaker 1>somebody who respects his his daughter. But I'm speaking about

1:05:31.600 --> 1:05:36.640
<v Speaker 1>John McCain now in his professional and legislative capacity, in

1:05:36.800 --> 1:05:41.800
<v Speaker 1>terms of his record and the ongoing situation with President Trump,

1:05:41.840 --> 1:05:45.240
<v Speaker 1>where what I see happening here is that Democrats love

1:05:45.920 --> 1:05:49.600
<v Speaker 1>Their favorite thing about John McCain is to use him

1:05:49.640 --> 1:05:54.280
<v Speaker 1>and his own UH disputes with the Republican Party as

1:05:54.280 --> 1:05:58.440
<v Speaker 1>a club to bludgeon other Republicans with UH. And there's

1:05:58.480 --> 1:06:02.880
<v Speaker 1>this this sense of of a forced homage that you

1:06:02.880 --> 1:06:05.440
<v Speaker 1>always have to pay to John McCain as a Republican,

1:06:06.040 --> 1:06:08.680
<v Speaker 1>and Democrats like to just wield that as a weapon

1:06:08.720 --> 1:06:12.720
<v Speaker 1>against against individuals. You know, are you are you, you know,

1:06:12.920 --> 1:06:15.320
<v Speaker 1>saying that his service was not as honorable and of

1:06:15.320 --> 1:06:19.640
<v Speaker 1>course not. But you know, I will note and the

1:06:19.680 --> 1:06:21.560
<v Speaker 1>veterans here listening, I'd be very curious to know what

1:06:21.640 --> 1:06:24.640
<v Speaker 1>their opinions are of this John McCain situation. But you know,

1:06:24.680 --> 1:06:25.840
<v Speaker 1>there are a lot there are a lot of people

1:06:25.880 --> 1:06:29.080
<v Speaker 1>that serve very honorably in Vietnam. You know, we have

1:06:29.120 --> 1:06:31.800
<v Speaker 1>a lot of Vietnam vets who put their lives on

1:06:31.840 --> 1:06:35.000
<v Speaker 1>the line, who took bullets, who were wounded, you know,

1:06:35.040 --> 1:06:37.959
<v Speaker 1>and obviously over fifty thousand didn't even come home. Are

1:06:38.040 --> 1:06:40.560
<v Speaker 1>they all for the rest of their professional lives in

1:06:40.720 --> 1:06:43.120
<v Speaker 1>if they're in public life, are they all beyond reproach

1:06:43.160 --> 1:06:45.960
<v Speaker 1>for whatever they do. You know, I do think there's

1:06:45.960 --> 1:06:50.080
<v Speaker 1>a disingenuousness with Democrats where they you know, they know

1:06:50.160 --> 1:06:55.800
<v Speaker 1>that John McCain was Look, he was an unreliable, unreliable

1:06:56.080 --> 1:06:59.080
<v Speaker 1>partner with conservatism, there's no question about it, and turned

1:06:59.120 --> 1:07:02.440
<v Speaker 1>his back on conservatism and the right at key points.

1:07:02.440 --> 1:07:04.840
<v Speaker 1>I mean, McCain find goal was a terrible law that

1:07:04.880 --> 1:07:08.560
<v Speaker 1>he co sponsored, terrible law, and then at the last

1:07:08.560 --> 1:07:13.040
<v Speaker 1>minute to abandon his fellow Republicans on the issue of

1:07:13.040 --> 1:07:17.120
<v Speaker 1>the Obamacare repeal. And I think that that was that

1:07:17.240 --> 1:07:21.440
<v Speaker 1>was personal spite in place of national level politics and

1:07:21.480 --> 1:07:24.800
<v Speaker 1>responsibility to the people of Arizona and to the people

1:07:24.800 --> 1:07:26.560
<v Speaker 1>of the United States more broadly. I think that John

1:07:26.640 --> 1:07:29.919
<v Speaker 1>McCain wanted to wanted to take a slap at President Trump,

1:07:29.960 --> 1:07:32.240
<v Speaker 1>and he was successful, But at what cost to how

1:07:32.240 --> 1:07:35.720
<v Speaker 1>many millions of people that were affected by that healthcare decision?

1:07:36.400 --> 1:07:39.920
<v Speaker 1>You know, as people now will sit in waiting rooms

1:07:39.920 --> 1:07:42.000
<v Speaker 1>wondering if they'll be able to afford the visit, wondering

1:07:42.040 --> 1:07:43.640
<v Speaker 1>if they'll be able to get into the waiting room

1:07:43.640 --> 1:07:45.920
<v Speaker 1>in time, wondering if they'll be able to afford their medication.

1:07:46.400 --> 1:07:50.919
<v Speaker 1>All the different problems, all the different shortcomings of our

1:07:51.040 --> 1:07:54.120
<v Speaker 1>system of medicine in this country. I'm not saying there

1:07:54.120 --> 1:07:56.680
<v Speaker 1>would have been some cure all with the skinny repeal bill.

1:07:56.720 --> 1:07:59.479
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't perfect what they were trying to do, but

1:07:59.600 --> 1:08:03.080
<v Speaker 1>it would have been better. And McCain stood in the

1:08:03.120 --> 1:08:04.520
<v Speaker 1>way of that. And I think that he did that

1:08:04.560 --> 1:08:07.480
<v Speaker 1>for personal reasons, and I think that we're absolutely allowed

1:08:07.840 --> 1:08:12.360
<v Speaker 1>to disagree with him on that. And I don't like this, uh,

1:08:12.560 --> 1:08:17.719
<v Speaker 1>this forced worship of anyone on policy matters, on matter

1:08:17.800 --> 1:08:21.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, because of their because of their previous service

1:08:21.920 --> 1:08:25.200
<v Speaker 1>to the country. You know, Look, I'm not trying to

1:08:25.200 --> 1:08:26.840
<v Speaker 1>say that John McCain was a strong man, but you

1:08:26.840 --> 1:08:28.599
<v Speaker 1>look at a lot of strong men around the globe

1:08:28.600 --> 1:08:31.000
<v Speaker 1>and a lot of dictators, and you know, they served

1:08:31.040 --> 1:08:33.759
<v Speaker 1>in their militaries, right, I mean, you know, just because

1:08:33.800 --> 1:08:36.120
<v Speaker 1>you serve in the military doesn't mean you cannot be

1:08:36.560 --> 1:08:39.160
<v Speaker 1>criticized on policy matters or what you do after you're

1:08:39.160 --> 1:08:42.080
<v Speaker 1>in the military. And look, Democrats know this. They're just

1:08:42.400 --> 1:08:46.040
<v Speaker 1>they're just playing they're they're they're just playing cynical politics

1:08:46.040 --> 1:08:49.479
<v Speaker 1>with this by trying to turn Trump and McCain. You know,

1:08:50.040 --> 1:08:55.840
<v Speaker 1>McCain posthumously against him. Now that all said, do I

1:08:55.840 --> 1:08:58.240
<v Speaker 1>think that Trump should take the take de bait with

1:08:58.320 --> 1:09:01.000
<v Speaker 1>this and and say all the stuff about McCain. No,

1:09:02.160 --> 1:09:05.559
<v Speaker 1>I think it's a waste. I also think, and this

1:09:05.600 --> 1:09:08.880
<v Speaker 1>was the other story today that and look, you can

1:09:08.920 --> 1:09:11.280
<v Speaker 1>tell I'm not a fan of McCain in the legislative

1:09:11.680 --> 1:09:13.840
<v Speaker 1>side of things at all. I do not think that

1:09:13.880 --> 1:09:16.799
<v Speaker 1>as a senator he made a lot of good choices.

1:09:16.800 --> 1:09:18.479
<v Speaker 1>And I think that his senate campaign, I mean, his

1:09:18.600 --> 1:09:22.160
<v Speaker 1>presidential campaign was a disaster for the Republican Party that

1:09:22.240 --> 1:09:25.120
<v Speaker 1>led to eight years of Obama. So I do not

1:09:25.240 --> 1:09:28.840
<v Speaker 1>think that he that his professional life should be on

1:09:28.920 --> 1:09:32.200
<v Speaker 1>approach at all. I don't think that Trump should get

1:09:32.200 --> 1:09:34.800
<v Speaker 1>into this, you know, mudslinging. It just doesn't really matter.

1:09:34.840 --> 1:09:37.479
<v Speaker 1>But look, Trump is who he is, and he's he's

1:09:37.479 --> 1:09:39.799
<v Speaker 1>gonna punch back, and he's not gonna take any guff

1:09:40.160 --> 1:09:42.040
<v Speaker 1>In case you to know this, he hasn't liked John

1:09:42.080 --> 1:09:45.080
<v Speaker 1>McCain for the last twenty years. I mean, he's never

1:09:45.120 --> 1:09:48.519
<v Speaker 1>liked this guy. Some people just don't like each other.

1:09:49.320 --> 1:09:50.960
<v Speaker 1>You may even pick up from listening to the show

1:09:51.040 --> 1:09:53.200
<v Speaker 1>enough that there are some individuals in media that I

1:09:53.240 --> 1:09:54.880
<v Speaker 1>just don't like him and they don't like me. We

1:09:54.960 --> 1:09:57.080
<v Speaker 1>just don't like each other, you know, and there's not

1:09:57.120 --> 1:09:59.639
<v Speaker 1>even necessarily a great reason for it. You know, people,

1:10:00.240 --> 1:10:03.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, people are like animals, you know, an animals

1:10:03.160 --> 1:10:06.400
<v Speaker 1>sometimes in the wild will kind of you know, the

1:10:06.560 --> 1:10:08.840
<v Speaker 1>kind of smell each other and decide we're gonna fight this.

1:10:08.880 --> 1:10:10.679
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna fight to the death, you know. And it's

1:10:10.680 --> 1:10:13.679
<v Speaker 1>just the way it is. You know. Sometimes the two

1:10:13.680 --> 1:10:16.960
<v Speaker 1>tigers just walk past each other silently in the jungle.

1:10:17.080 --> 1:10:19.920
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes they fight until one of them bleeds out and

1:10:19.960 --> 1:10:21.800
<v Speaker 1>the other one slowly bleeds out, you know. I mean,

1:10:21.840 --> 1:10:24.559
<v Speaker 1>that's that's just the that's just nature maybe. I mean,

1:10:24.560 --> 1:10:27.719
<v Speaker 1>that's just the way that it is. And with people

1:10:27.760 --> 1:10:30.160
<v Speaker 1>with massive egos, which I mean John McCain had a

1:10:30.320 --> 1:10:33.080
<v Speaker 1>huge ego, I mean, make no mistake about it. Is

1:10:33.120 --> 1:10:35.960
<v Speaker 1>it as big as Drump's probably not, And can you argue,

1:10:36.000 --> 1:10:38.439
<v Speaker 1>of course, you know, whose ego is more earned? I mean,

1:10:38.479 --> 1:10:41.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm not even gonna go there, um, but this is

1:10:42.000 --> 1:10:44.120
<v Speaker 1>this is what the Democrats love to hold up John

1:10:44.160 --> 1:10:48.680
<v Speaker 1>McCain because they know that when Republicans, when Republicans say,

1:10:48.680 --> 1:10:50.840
<v Speaker 1>hold on a second, but but McCain didn't do this

1:10:50.960 --> 1:10:52.800
<v Speaker 1>or that that would have helped us, or McCain was

1:10:52.840 --> 1:10:55.679
<v Speaker 1>a problem here, they go, oh, you're disrespecting his milit

1:10:55.880 --> 1:10:59.320
<v Speaker 1>So your Republicans don't really support the military. When we

1:10:59.360 --> 1:11:02.400
<v Speaker 1>all know that if you had to pick, if you

1:11:02.479 --> 1:11:05.320
<v Speaker 1>have to pick one political party in this country that

1:11:05.479 --> 1:11:08.680
<v Speaker 1>is truly and honestly supportive of the military, it's going

1:11:08.720 --> 1:11:10.840
<v Speaker 1>to be the Republicans. It's not going to be the

1:11:11.080 --> 1:11:15.480
<v Speaker 1>code pink far left, who are a bunch of imperialists

1:11:15.600 --> 1:11:18.400
<v Speaker 1>and you know, we bomb civilians indiscriminately for no reason

1:11:18.439 --> 1:11:21.200
<v Speaker 1>all the time. Democrats, all right, It's going to be

1:11:21.240 --> 1:11:24.360
<v Speaker 1>the Republicans that are the party that supports the military.

1:11:24.439 --> 1:11:27.840
<v Speaker 1>And although whenever, whenever you say something like this, you'll

1:11:27.840 --> 1:11:30.240
<v Speaker 1>get the left has a few people in the media

1:11:30.400 --> 1:11:33.000
<v Speaker 1>that that you have served in combat roles, and their

1:11:33.040 --> 1:11:35.120
<v Speaker 1>whole job is to run around and bash anybody who

1:11:35.200 --> 1:11:38.439
<v Speaker 1>points out that, you know, there there is a there

1:11:38.520 --> 1:11:43.840
<v Speaker 1>is a a majority of support in the military for

1:11:43.880 --> 1:11:47.920
<v Speaker 1>the Republican Party. It's just it's just it's just true. Um.

1:11:48.520 --> 1:11:50.040
<v Speaker 1>And then you got this other thing, which I don't

1:11:50.040 --> 1:11:51.519
<v Speaker 1>even know if it's worth it. I know what, I'll

1:11:51.520 --> 1:11:53.760
<v Speaker 1>just just a few seconds on this this whole Kelly

1:11:53.760 --> 1:11:58.479
<v Speaker 1>Ann Conway, George Conway Trump nonsense. What did Trump say

1:11:58.520 --> 1:12:03.200
<v Speaker 1>about the tweet is pretty is pretty funny. I want

1:12:03.200 --> 1:12:04.680
<v Speaker 1>to see if I can, if I can pull this

1:12:04.720 --> 1:12:08.960
<v Speaker 1>one up for you, it says, Hold on a second.

1:12:09.040 --> 1:12:13.439
<v Speaker 1>This is from earlier this morning. George Conway, often referred

1:12:13.439 --> 1:12:16.320
<v Speaker 1>to as mister Kelly Ann Conway by by those who

1:12:16.360 --> 1:12:19.280
<v Speaker 1>know him, is very jealous of his wife's success and

1:12:19.360 --> 1:12:22.559
<v Speaker 1>angry that with her help didn't give that I with

1:12:22.600 --> 1:12:24.880
<v Speaker 1>her help, didn't give him the job he's so desperately wanted.

1:12:24.880 --> 1:12:26.439
<v Speaker 1>I barely know him, but just take a look a

1:12:26.479 --> 1:12:32.240
<v Speaker 1>stone called loser and a husband from hell. You know again,

1:12:32.320 --> 1:12:34.599
<v Speaker 1>I don't really see what the point is here other

1:12:34.640 --> 1:12:37.320
<v Speaker 1>than they're trying to you know, they know they poked

1:12:37.360 --> 1:12:40.120
<v Speaker 1>the present. He's going to slap back. People keep saying

1:12:40.160 --> 1:12:42.040
<v Speaker 1>it's so mean that Trump would say this. Why is

1:12:42.080 --> 1:12:46.000
<v Speaker 1>it okay for George Conway to undermine his wife publicly

1:12:46.040 --> 1:12:49.080
<v Speaker 1>like this by attacking her boss? Does it? The media

1:12:49.120 --> 1:12:51.240
<v Speaker 1>never seems to ask that question. So we just Trump

1:12:51.400 --> 1:12:55.880
<v Speaker 1>is intruding on their relationship. Yeah, yeah, yeah, we get

1:12:55.920 --> 1:12:57.559
<v Speaker 1>the game at their playing folks, And you know what

1:12:57.680 --> 1:13:03.360
<v Speaker 1>we don't like it. Probably familiar with AARP, right, They

1:13:03.439 --> 1:13:05.600
<v Speaker 1>got a big office here in DC. I pass it

1:13:05.640 --> 1:13:08.240
<v Speaker 1>in the swamp and a lot of people are members. Yeah, yeah,

1:13:08.320 --> 1:13:12.280
<v Speaker 1>guess what. AAARP is a seniors organization that pushes a

1:13:12.320 --> 1:13:16.600
<v Speaker 1>lot of left wing progressive causes. That's why I recommend AMAC.

1:13:16.640 --> 1:13:21.200
<v Speaker 1>AMAC is the conservative alternative to the aa ARP. So

1:13:21.280 --> 1:13:25.120
<v Speaker 1>if you're a senior, please join my friends at AMAC.

1:13:25.520 --> 1:13:28.639
<v Speaker 1>They are pushing for policies that you agree with, and

1:13:28.760 --> 1:13:30.800
<v Speaker 1>they're making sure that you're part of an organization that's

1:13:30.840 --> 1:13:35.040
<v Speaker 1>going to get you great value, including discounts on car insurance, hotels,

1:13:35.120 --> 1:13:38.880
<v Speaker 1>roadside assistants, dental plans, even sell phone service options. So

1:13:38.920 --> 1:13:41.599
<v Speaker 1>there's all kinds of benefits. Stand with AMAC as they

1:13:41.600 --> 1:13:44.080
<v Speaker 1>fight the good fight. By becoming a member today. The

1:13:44.120 --> 1:13:46.960
<v Speaker 1>benefits are great, but you know the cause is even greater.

1:13:47.360 --> 1:13:52.840
<v Speaker 1>Join right now at AMAC dot us slash buck. That's

1:13:52.960 --> 1:13:59.519
<v Speaker 1>am AC dot us slash buck. AMAC is better, better

1:13:59.600 --> 1:14:03.760
<v Speaker 1>for you, better for America. I wouldn't entertain that the

1:14:03.800 --> 1:14:06.000
<v Speaker 1>only reason is that they're doing that is they want

1:14:06.000 --> 1:14:08.679
<v Speaker 1>to try and catch up. So if they can't catch

1:14:08.760 --> 1:14:11.040
<v Speaker 1>up through the ballot box by winning an election, they

1:14:11.040 --> 1:14:13.000
<v Speaker 1>want to try doing it in a different way. Now,

1:14:13.200 --> 1:14:15.120
<v Speaker 1>we would have no interest in that whatsoever. It will

1:14:15.160 --> 1:14:17.840
<v Speaker 1>never happen. It won't happen. I guarantee it won't happen

1:14:17.920 --> 1:14:22.360
<v Speaker 1>for six years. Libs lose and they want to change

1:14:22.360 --> 1:14:27.080
<v Speaker 1>the rules. That seems to be a widespread phenomenon among

1:14:27.120 --> 1:14:32.800
<v Speaker 1>the Democrat would be presidential hopeful type. So what does

1:14:32.800 --> 1:14:35.840
<v Speaker 1>that tell us about their respect for institutions? Also, what's

1:14:35.840 --> 1:14:38.639
<v Speaker 1>going on with the Muller pro pretty much everything. It's

1:14:38.720 --> 1:14:40.600
<v Speaker 1>kind of a kitchen sync segment we got planned for

1:14:40.600 --> 1:14:43.559
<v Speaker 1>you here with my man Sean Davis, who is co

1:14:43.680 --> 1:14:47.519
<v Speaker 1>founder of the Federalist, also fierce in his Twitter game.

1:14:48.000 --> 1:14:50.599
<v Speaker 1>Doesn't let the Libs get away with the nonsense. Sean Davis,

1:14:50.600 --> 1:14:52.800
<v Speaker 1>Great to have you back, sir, great to be here.

1:14:52.840 --> 1:14:56.840
<v Speaker 1>Thank you for having me. So do liberals not understand

1:14:57.520 --> 1:14:59.840
<v Speaker 1>why we have an electoral college? I mean, is it

1:15:00.120 --> 1:15:03.080
<v Speaker 1>how much of this is driven by ignorance versus how

1:15:03.120 --> 1:15:05.320
<v Speaker 1>much of this is just the cynicism of we need

1:15:05.400 --> 1:15:06.920
<v Speaker 1>to we need to rig the game so we can

1:15:06.960 --> 1:15:09.000
<v Speaker 1>win next time. I really mean that. Do you think

1:15:09.000 --> 1:15:14.080
<v Speaker 1>that o'casio Cortez understands why the electoral college exists, for example. No,

1:15:14.240 --> 1:15:16.640
<v Speaker 1>I think she's probably trying to get her parents to

1:15:18.080 --> 1:15:20.920
<v Speaker 1>bribe the Electoral College with like a half a million

1:15:20.920 --> 1:15:25.240
<v Speaker 1>dollar donation so she can get admitted to it. I

1:15:25.320 --> 1:15:29.880
<v Speaker 1>hear it's very selective. No. I think the left winners

1:15:29.920 --> 1:15:32.200
<v Speaker 1>care about power. That's all they care about. They don't

1:15:32.200 --> 1:15:36.479
<v Speaker 1>care about the historical tradition, about the very involved in

1:15:36.640 --> 1:15:39.240
<v Speaker 1>deeply thought through debates that the founders had when they

1:15:39.400 --> 1:15:43.040
<v Speaker 1>established our system of government. They only care about power

1:15:43.240 --> 1:15:47.320
<v Speaker 1>and their experience with history while they've been alive, you

1:15:47.360 --> 1:15:49.360
<v Speaker 1>know for the last twenty years or so. Is it

1:15:49.479 --> 1:15:53.320
<v Speaker 1>electoral college bad because Republicans win sometimes with it, So

1:15:53.360 --> 1:15:55.640
<v Speaker 1>they've decided that needs to go. We need to get

1:15:55.720 --> 1:15:58.120
<v Speaker 1>rid of it. We need New York in California picking

1:15:58.120 --> 1:16:00.920
<v Speaker 1>all the winners in the stupid room in flyover Country

1:16:00.960 --> 1:16:03.639
<v Speaker 1>can just deal with it like totalitarian. All they care

1:16:03.640 --> 1:16:07.800
<v Speaker 1>about is the end result, which is accumulating more power. Yep.

1:16:08.560 --> 1:16:10.880
<v Speaker 1>It's almost like Sean was listening to the radio show yesterday,

1:16:10.920 --> 1:16:13.120
<v Speaker 1>because that's my take on this. Too many they'll rig

1:16:13.120 --> 1:16:16.360
<v Speaker 1>the game however they can and feel righteous in doing so,

1:16:16.880 --> 1:16:21.599
<v Speaker 1>whether it's lowering the voting age to sixteen, eliminating the

1:16:21.680 --> 1:16:26.479
<v Speaker 1>Electoral College, packing the Supreme Court. You know, Sean, if

1:16:26.479 --> 1:16:29.439
<v Speaker 1>I had told people a few years ago that the

1:16:29.600 --> 1:16:33.600
<v Speaker 1>Democrat platform going into twenty twenty would be annihilate the

1:16:33.640 --> 1:16:37.160
<v Speaker 1>whole system and remake it in our own status image,

1:16:37.200 --> 1:16:40.240
<v Speaker 1>they would say, Buck, you're being too harsh. Come on,

1:16:40.600 --> 1:16:43.120
<v Speaker 1>don't be that guy. But that's actually what's happening. I mean,

1:16:43.200 --> 1:16:45.719
<v Speaker 1>they've gone so far left that they're about to topple

1:16:45.760 --> 1:16:49.160
<v Speaker 1>over it is well, and recall that this is a

1:16:49.200 --> 1:16:53.600
<v Speaker 1>party that has written into its formal official platform the

1:16:53.680 --> 1:16:56.080
<v Speaker 1>repeal of the First Amendment because they don't like that

1:16:56.160 --> 1:16:59.720
<v Speaker 1>Citizens United gives people the ability to band together and

1:17:00.000 --> 1:17:02.680
<v Speaker 1>of some pool their money and run ads against politicians

1:17:02.720 --> 1:17:05.720
<v Speaker 1>they don't like. See, you've got a party that is

1:17:05.760 --> 1:17:09.960
<v Speaker 1>hostile to the foundational amendment of the American idea, which

1:17:10.040 --> 1:17:12.719
<v Speaker 1>is the ability to speak and vote and as symbol

1:17:12.760 --> 1:17:14.800
<v Speaker 1>and worship how you want. They want to get rid

1:17:14.840 --> 1:17:18.200
<v Speaker 1>of that. We all know they'd knuke the Second Amendment,

1:17:18.280 --> 1:17:20.600
<v Speaker 1>maybe even literally if they could. Now. They want to

1:17:20.600 --> 1:17:23.960
<v Speaker 1>get rid of the way that we've elected presidents in

1:17:24.000 --> 1:17:26.760
<v Speaker 1>this country for the entirety of their history. But I

1:17:26.760 --> 1:17:29.360
<v Speaker 1>can promise you that if for some reason, Donald Trump

1:17:29.439 --> 1:17:33.519
<v Speaker 1>were to lose the electoral college in twenty twenty, but

1:17:33.640 --> 1:17:38.240
<v Speaker 1>when the popular vote, they will immediately switch their their

1:17:38.360 --> 1:17:41.840
<v Speaker 1>rationale to own the electoral college is the greatest thing

1:17:42.479 --> 1:17:45.000
<v Speaker 1>since ever in all of nineteen eighty four, we have

1:17:45.120 --> 1:17:47.840
<v Speaker 1>always been at war with East Asia. They will turn

1:17:47.880 --> 1:17:50.400
<v Speaker 1>on a dime and pretend they never had the positions

1:17:50.439 --> 1:17:53.439
<v Speaker 1>that they previously helped. Yeah, they are fond of doing that.

1:17:53.479 --> 1:17:55.760
<v Speaker 1>I've seen them do it in many cases, you know, Sean,

1:17:55.840 --> 1:17:59.680
<v Speaker 1>I think that there's an eerie calm right now and

1:18:00.000 --> 1:18:03.880
<v Speaker 1>based in DC for those of us who are either

1:18:03.920 --> 1:18:08.800
<v Speaker 1>around politicos or journos, there's a sense of any minute now,

1:18:08.960 --> 1:18:13.040
<v Speaker 1>the Muller probe is going to come out. Do you

1:18:13.160 --> 1:18:16.360
<v Speaker 1>have expectations for this thing at this point? Are you in?

1:18:16.680 --> 1:18:19.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean, we're all in waiting, simo, because we don't know.

1:18:19.240 --> 1:18:24.920
<v Speaker 1>But I'm very convinced that the plan from the from

1:18:24.920 --> 1:18:28.920
<v Speaker 1>the Democrats, from CNN and the Washington Post is when

1:18:28.960 --> 1:18:31.400
<v Speaker 1>this report comes out and there's just nothing in it

1:18:31.640 --> 1:18:35.639
<v Speaker 1>to justify the two years of insanity we've been through,

1:18:35.880 --> 1:18:38.400
<v Speaker 1>They're just gonna be like, well, okay, let's get Trump's

1:18:38.400 --> 1:18:41.920
<v Speaker 1>tax returns it's good. They're gonna act like nothing's happened, right.

1:18:41.920 --> 1:18:44.960
<v Speaker 1>I think you're correct, although I'm very skeptical that this

1:18:45.000 --> 1:18:47.559
<v Speaker 1>thing will be wrapping up anytime soon. And I've heard

1:18:47.560 --> 1:18:49.880
<v Speaker 1>all the same rumors. I've read all the same reports.

1:18:50.240 --> 1:18:52.840
<v Speaker 1>You know, the report is in imminent, it's shutting down

1:18:53.320 --> 1:18:56.679
<v Speaker 1>based on what I've seen from this investigation so far,

1:18:56.840 --> 1:19:00.799
<v Speaker 1>which is, uh, you know, rolling up people, lawyers, searching

1:19:00.840 --> 1:19:04.320
<v Speaker 1>through their stuff, attacking Republicans and putting them in prison

1:19:04.400 --> 1:19:06.880
<v Speaker 1>for things that we know the Democrats involved in the

1:19:06.960 --> 1:19:09.800
<v Speaker 1>same thing did, but they're not being charged. I don't

1:19:09.840 --> 1:19:12.320
<v Speaker 1>have any faith that this moler thing is going to

1:19:12.400 --> 1:19:16.360
<v Speaker 1>stop until Trump is out of office. That's my personal view.

1:19:16.439 --> 1:19:19.479
<v Speaker 1>I'm sticking with it until they prove otherwise because I've

1:19:19.680 --> 1:19:22.400
<v Speaker 1>I've grown rather tired of this constant drum beat in

1:19:22.439 --> 1:19:24.559
<v Speaker 1>the media that, oh, it's wrapping up and the report's

1:19:24.600 --> 1:19:26.960
<v Speaker 1>about to come out. I'll believe it when I see it,

1:19:27.000 --> 1:19:29.200
<v Speaker 1>and until then, I don't have any interest in it.

1:19:29.320 --> 1:19:31.840
<v Speaker 1>You know, I was on that train with you until

1:19:31.960 --> 1:19:35.599
<v Speaker 1>very recently, because I've heard now I'm hearing from people

1:19:35.640 --> 1:19:37.439
<v Speaker 1>that are that aren't well. I've heard from people in

1:19:37.479 --> 1:19:41.439
<v Speaker 1>the doj But but they've also told me, yeah, but

1:19:41.520 --> 1:19:43.920
<v Speaker 1>it keeps getting They tell me it's going to be

1:19:43.960 --> 1:19:45.439
<v Speaker 1>the next couple of weeks. Then a couple of weeks

1:19:45.439 --> 1:19:47.759
<v Speaker 1>pass and they say, well, it keeps getting pushed back.

1:19:48.240 --> 1:19:49.920
<v Speaker 1>And I'm like, well, if it's going to keep getting

1:19:49.960 --> 1:19:52.599
<v Speaker 1>pushed back every two weeks for the next fifty two weeks,

1:19:52.720 --> 1:19:55.200
<v Speaker 1>that means it's not going to end this year. So

1:19:55.880 --> 1:19:58.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, I've I was with you in that and

1:19:58.080 --> 1:20:00.559
<v Speaker 1>that until about three months ago, I was saying, I think,

1:20:00.880 --> 1:20:03.680
<v Speaker 1>including here on the show, that my expectation was that

1:20:03.680 --> 1:20:05.880
<v Speaker 1>this would drag all the way through until just before

1:20:05.960 --> 1:20:09.200
<v Speaker 1>the twenty twenty election. Well we'll see if these rumors

1:20:09.240 --> 1:20:13.360
<v Speaker 1>now are true or not. But I gotta tell you, man,

1:20:13.600 --> 1:20:16.240
<v Speaker 1>at this point, I think that there's going to have

1:20:16.320 --> 1:20:18.439
<v Speaker 1>to be some kind of a reckoning for people who,

1:20:18.479 --> 1:20:22.479
<v Speaker 1>at a minimum have been saying that the President United

1:20:22.479 --> 1:20:25.240
<v Speaker 1>States committed treason. I mean, the things that we're said

1:20:25.280 --> 1:20:28.559
<v Speaker 1>on CNN, particularly you know, around a year ago, are

1:20:28.560 --> 1:20:30.519
<v Speaker 1>some of the craziest things I've ever heard said about

1:20:30.720 --> 1:20:34.240
<v Speaker 1>about anybody, never mind a president, on national television. And

1:20:34.280 --> 1:20:36.000
<v Speaker 1>I just I don't want to let that go, man.

1:20:36.040 --> 1:20:38.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to let them get away with it. Oh,

1:20:38.360 --> 1:20:40.559
<v Speaker 1>I'm with you, but I've got some bad news. And

1:20:40.760 --> 1:20:43.479
<v Speaker 1>bad news is that there will be no reckoning because

1:20:44.120 --> 1:20:46.759
<v Speaker 1>half of this country is so bond into this narrative.

1:20:46.760 --> 1:20:50.360
<v Speaker 1>They're so delusional they are not going to let it go.

1:20:50.840 --> 1:20:54.080
<v Speaker 1>We're back to you know, circa two thousand and four,

1:20:54.160 --> 1:20:57.559
<v Speaker 1>two thousand and five Bushlide. People died. Okay, this has

1:20:57.600 --> 1:21:00.479
<v Speaker 1>become such an article of faith among the left to

1:21:00.640 --> 1:21:05.680
<v Speaker 1>explain why Saint Hilary loss that they cannot let it

1:21:05.720 --> 1:21:07.320
<v Speaker 1>go because to let it go would mean that, you

1:21:07.320 --> 1:21:09.200
<v Speaker 1>know what people actually did want Donald Trump, if you

1:21:09.280 --> 1:21:11.479
<v Speaker 1>want it fair and square, and Hillary was actually a

1:21:11.520 --> 1:21:14.800
<v Speaker 1>really crappy candidate. They cannot accept that, so they will

1:21:14.800 --> 1:21:17.280
<v Speaker 1>cling to this fiction regardless of what the actual facts

1:21:17.280 --> 1:21:22.120
<v Speaker 1>show us. What of the candidates right now, who do

1:21:22.160 --> 1:21:25.680
<v Speaker 1>you think is who gives you a little bit of

1:21:25.760 --> 1:21:28.120
<v Speaker 1>a maybe this person is going to put up a

1:21:28.160 --> 1:21:31.320
<v Speaker 1>worthy fight against Trump? Any of them? A few of them,

1:21:32.520 --> 1:21:36.720
<v Speaker 1>I think Biden or Sanders. I think Sanders is an

1:21:36.840 --> 1:21:41.559
<v Speaker 1>especially dangerous opponent from a political perspective because he has

1:21:41.600 --> 1:21:44.120
<v Speaker 1>a very similar message to Trump, which is that the

1:21:44.160 --> 1:21:47.360
<v Speaker 1>game is rigged. You're getting screwed, people are getting rich

1:21:47.400 --> 1:21:48.920
<v Speaker 1>off of you, and I'm going to come in and

1:21:48.920 --> 1:21:51.040
<v Speaker 1>fix the problem. Now, they come at it from very

1:21:51.120 --> 1:21:55.040
<v Speaker 1>different places, with different policy prescriptions to fix that, but

1:21:55.160 --> 1:21:57.680
<v Speaker 1>they have the same message that's targeted kind of to

1:21:57.800 --> 1:22:02.840
<v Speaker 1>the same disaffected blue collar Midwestern worker. And so while

1:22:02.840 --> 1:22:05.599
<v Speaker 1>I think Bernie is cuckoo for Coco puffs, I think

1:22:05.760 --> 1:22:10.559
<v Speaker 1>his brand and his message eats into Trump's base in

1:22:10.600 --> 1:22:13.840
<v Speaker 1>a way that nobody else really does. And on the

1:22:13.920 --> 1:22:18.040
<v Speaker 1>Beto phenomenon, do you think is he the real deal

1:22:18.080 --> 1:22:21.240
<v Speaker 1>from the perspective of could he could go all the way?

1:22:21.320 --> 1:22:22.719
<v Speaker 1>Or you think this is a flash in the pants.

1:22:22.720 --> 1:22:24.439
<v Speaker 1>I mean, he did raise that six million which everyone

1:22:24.520 --> 1:22:28.559
<v Speaker 1>keeps talking about. Yeah, no, I'm completely bored by Robert

1:22:28.640 --> 1:22:31.599
<v Speaker 1>Franciso Rourke. So yeah, everyone's talking about this big fundraising hall.

1:22:31.640 --> 1:22:34.720
<v Speaker 1>He did well. He spent the last two years fundraising.

1:22:34.840 --> 1:22:37.360
<v Speaker 1>So when I saw those numbers, I didn't think, Wow,

1:22:37.400 --> 1:22:40.040
<v Speaker 1>this means so Rourke is a great candidate. I thought,

1:22:40.240 --> 1:22:43.120
<v Speaker 1>oh wow, he spent like one hundred million dollars building

1:22:43.200 --> 1:22:45.720
<v Speaker 1>up a pretty good direct mail list. So now I

1:22:46.080 --> 1:22:48.839
<v Speaker 1>personally think he's a flash in the pan. He's completely

1:22:48.920 --> 1:22:52.360
<v Speaker 1>unimpressive and vapid. But at the same time, I didn't

1:22:52.360 --> 1:22:53.800
<v Speaker 1>think Trump was going to be the nominee and I

1:22:53.800 --> 1:22:55.720
<v Speaker 1>didn't think he was going to be president. So what

1:22:55.720 --> 1:22:58.479
<v Speaker 1>do I know? Yeah, it's very hard and for anyone

1:22:58.520 --> 1:23:01.240
<v Speaker 1>to make predictions that they can put a lot of

1:23:01.640 --> 1:23:04.080
<v Speaker 1>ump behind. Considering how many people that I know who

1:23:04.160 --> 1:23:07.320
<v Speaker 1>think that they are very savvy on political matters, and

1:23:07.640 --> 1:23:10.280
<v Speaker 1>turns out they are. They were quite wrong on the

1:23:10.280 --> 1:23:13.599
<v Speaker 1>Trump phenomenal. Look, I didn't see the Trump phenomenon coming.

1:23:13.840 --> 1:23:16.439
<v Speaker 1>But then again, in retrospect that the idea that that

1:23:16.479 --> 1:23:18.720
<v Speaker 1>Ted Cruz was going to save the Republic, maybe that

1:23:18.760 --> 1:23:21.400
<v Speaker 1>was a little overdone too. So I think some people.

1:23:22.640 --> 1:23:26.000
<v Speaker 1>What bugs me about coverage now is most people in

1:23:26.040 --> 1:23:29.640
<v Speaker 1>the punditory business were wrong about twenty sixteen. And what

1:23:29.760 --> 1:23:33.240
<v Speaker 1>separates them is whether they learned something from being wrong.

1:23:33.360 --> 1:23:34.960
<v Speaker 1>And what I learned is, you know, I'm not so

1:23:35.000 --> 1:23:37.320
<v Speaker 1>great at this prognostication game. I'm not be a lot

1:23:37.320 --> 1:23:40.559
<v Speaker 1>more humble kind of how I look at it. Unfortunately, CNN,

1:23:40.600 --> 1:23:42.200
<v Speaker 1>in The Post and The New York Times and others

1:23:42.200 --> 1:23:45.400
<v Speaker 1>have taken the exact opposite approach, which is they're often wrong,

1:23:45.439 --> 1:23:49.000
<v Speaker 1>but they're never in doubt Sean Davis. Everybody of the

1:23:49.080 --> 1:23:51.160

1:25:04.120 --> 1:25:10.120
<v Speaker 1>MYGVN dot com. Again, that's MYGVN dot com. Get rejected

1:25:10.680 --> 1:25:15.080
<v Speaker 1>a lot. That's my advice to anyone out there who

1:25:15.280 --> 1:25:19.599
<v Speaker 1>is willing to hear it. Get rejected a lot. Learn

1:25:19.680 --> 1:25:23.280
<v Speaker 1>to take no, Learn to take you're not good enough.

1:25:23.400 --> 1:25:26.280
<v Speaker 1>Learn to take nobody wants you, or we don't want you,

1:25:26.520 --> 1:25:30.040
<v Speaker 1>or you're not wanted here, and learn to take it

1:25:30.040 --> 1:25:34.160
<v Speaker 1>in a way where you grow stronger as a result

1:25:34.200 --> 1:25:38.200
<v Speaker 1>of that rejection. There's a piece today in NBC News

1:25:38.240 --> 1:25:44.360
<v Speaker 1>that looks at rejection from an evolutionary biology standpoint. The

1:25:44.479 --> 1:25:48.480
<v Speaker 1>very basic version of their scientific thesis is that rejection,

1:25:49.280 --> 1:25:53.320
<v Speaker 1>the feeling of rejection, causes a physiological response that in

1:25:53.360 --> 1:25:57.559
<v Speaker 1>some ways mimics what you get in the pain centers

1:25:57.600 --> 1:25:59.280
<v Speaker 1>of the body. So I mean reject. When people say

1:25:59.320 --> 1:26:04.559
<v Speaker 1>rejection hurts, it actually does hurt. It actually does create

1:26:04.560 --> 1:26:09.400
<v Speaker 1>a feeling feelings of not just uneased but unwellness, and

1:26:09.880 --> 1:26:11.920
<v Speaker 1>it can create pain in the gut. It can create

1:26:12.960 --> 1:26:18.920
<v Speaker 1>a real sense of something terrible having happened, right, And

1:26:19.680 --> 1:26:22.840
<v Speaker 1>what we're experiencing now in society is because of all

1:26:22.840 --> 1:26:27.679
<v Speaker 1>of our connectivity and the constant sorting and resorting and

1:26:27.800 --> 1:26:30.519
<v Speaker 1>the so called meritocracy that we strive for in some

1:26:30.560 --> 1:26:34.760
<v Speaker 1>parts of life, we have so many more opportunities now

1:26:34.760 --> 1:26:39.759
<v Speaker 1>to get rejected than ever before. Rejected when we reach

1:26:39.800 --> 1:26:42.240
<v Speaker 1>out to somebody for a job, rejected when we reach

1:26:42.280 --> 1:26:45.960
<v Speaker 1>out to somebody electronically, for you know, for a date,

1:26:46.040 --> 1:26:49.080
<v Speaker 1>for a drink, when we apply to college, when we

1:26:49.560 --> 1:26:52.040
<v Speaker 1>just you name it. There's so many ways. Whereas it

1:26:52.120 --> 1:26:53.840
<v Speaker 1>used to be that if you were rejected by your

1:26:53.880 --> 1:26:57.439
<v Speaker 1>peer group, this is the evolutionary biology part of it,

1:26:57.920 --> 1:27:00.800
<v Speaker 1>you might starve to death because if people didn't trust

1:27:00.800 --> 1:27:02.160
<v Speaker 1>you and didn't want to be around you, and you

1:27:02.200 --> 1:27:07.240
<v Speaker 1>didn't have the cooperative hunting going on, you were in

1:27:07.280 --> 1:27:09.960
<v Speaker 1>a lot of trouble. Now you're just getting Now it's

1:27:09.960 --> 1:27:13.639
<v Speaker 1>all psychological. You're bombarded with it. And so this piece

1:27:13.680 --> 1:27:17.280
<v Speaker 1>tries to lay out a bunch of ways that you

1:27:17.320 --> 1:27:21.040
<v Speaker 1>can deal with the pain response in the brain from rejection,

1:27:21.560 --> 1:27:24.240
<v Speaker 1>and it says things like, you know, ask if it

1:27:24.240 --> 1:27:28.640
<v Speaker 1>really matters, remember a rejection often isn't personal. Choose to

1:27:28.680 --> 1:27:30.800
<v Speaker 1>assume the best rather than the worst and get back

1:27:30.840 --> 1:27:33.760
<v Speaker 1>out there. I don't really like the way that they

1:27:33.800 --> 1:27:36.800
<v Speaker 1>try to set this up because I'm I'm a fan

1:27:36.920 --> 1:27:39.200
<v Speaker 1>at this point in my life. A rejection, because you know,

1:27:39.200 --> 1:27:42.760
<v Speaker 1>a rejection really means means you tried, means you're in

1:27:42.800 --> 1:27:45.760
<v Speaker 1>the fight, means that as long as you're not being

1:27:45.800 --> 1:27:48.120
<v Speaker 1>a you know, a lunatic right of it, I'm not suggesting, well,

1:27:48.439 --> 1:27:50.280
<v Speaker 1>ask her out for coffee and then I ask her

1:27:50.320 --> 1:27:53.519
<v Speaker 1>out one hundred more times, because rejection feels so darn good.

1:27:54.000 --> 1:27:56.479
<v Speaker 1>But whether it's applying for a job, applying for college,

1:27:56.479 --> 1:28:00.400
<v Speaker 1>trying to better yourself, and also even this self rejection

1:28:00.400 --> 1:28:03.040
<v Speaker 1>that you can engage in sometimes you know, the the

1:28:03.080 --> 1:28:06.240
<v Speaker 1>idea that you will undermine yourself when you try to go,

1:28:06.600 --> 1:28:08.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, restart working out at the gym, or or

1:28:09.000 --> 1:28:11.160
<v Speaker 1>you want to learn a new language and you know

1:28:11.280 --> 1:28:13.800
<v Speaker 1>you're going to you're you're automatically not good to want

1:28:13.800 --> 1:28:16.280
<v Speaker 1>to do things you're not good at, and there's there

1:28:16.280 --> 1:28:18.400
<v Speaker 1>are reasons for that. You know, we all want to

1:28:18.400 --> 1:28:19.880
<v Speaker 1>do things that we're good at, Like do I want

1:28:19.880 --> 1:28:23.320
<v Speaker 1>to make scrambled eggs, Yes, because my scrambled eggs are amazing.

1:28:23.800 --> 1:28:28.240
<v Speaker 1>But do I want to try and learn Chinese starting tomorrow.

1:28:28.479 --> 1:28:30.280
<v Speaker 1>Probably not, because it's gonna be hard. I'm not going

1:28:30.360 --> 1:28:33.240
<v Speaker 1>to be good at it, but learning to him, learning

1:28:33.280 --> 1:28:37.120
<v Speaker 1>when to embrace that and when to view it as

1:28:37.360 --> 1:28:40.120
<v Speaker 1>almost like the tears in your muscles when you're working out,

1:28:40.160 --> 1:28:42.920
<v Speaker 1>That's what rejection is. It hurts, but it can really

1:28:42.960 --> 1:28:45.639
<v Speaker 1>make you stronger. And I don't believe, by the way,

1:28:46.000 --> 1:28:48.439
<v Speaker 1>for the people I say with Niche, you know, what

1:28:48.520 --> 1:28:50.719
<v Speaker 1>doesn't kill you makes you stronger, it's actually not true.

1:28:50.760 --> 1:28:53.040
<v Speaker 1>You know, if you're if you're in a terrible car

1:28:53.040 --> 1:28:56.320
<v Speaker 1>accident and you know you lose usage of two limbs,

1:28:56.640 --> 1:28:59.280
<v Speaker 1>you're not actually stronger even though you're survived. So, you know,

1:28:59.320 --> 1:29:02.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that that's a fair way to view

1:29:02.120 --> 1:29:06.040
<v Speaker 1>these things. But rejection is something that in modern society

1:29:06.080 --> 1:29:09.240
<v Speaker 1>we all have to embrace in our own way and

1:29:09.640 --> 1:29:11.560
<v Speaker 1>learned to get past. And I think it's important. I

1:29:11.560 --> 1:29:14.400
<v Speaker 1>think it's important for kids to learn I'm a better

1:29:14.439 --> 1:29:19.960
<v Speaker 1>person because I was rejected from my early decision college choice,

1:29:20.680 --> 1:29:22.080
<v Speaker 1>which I don't know if I've ever said on the

1:29:22.080 --> 1:29:24.440
<v Speaker 1>show before, not that I care but it was Princeton University.

1:29:24.960 --> 1:29:27.680
<v Speaker 1>They technically deferred me then rejected me. But I was

1:29:27.720 --> 1:29:30.439
<v Speaker 1>rejected by Princeton, the first school that I wanted to

1:29:30.479 --> 1:29:33.200
<v Speaker 1>go to and applied to. That was a good thing.

1:29:33.520 --> 1:29:35.760
<v Speaker 1>It made me think more about who I was and

1:29:36.520 --> 1:29:39.000
<v Speaker 1>how good of a student am I. But do I

1:29:39.000 --> 1:29:40.840
<v Speaker 1>really want to go there? Did I just want the name?

1:29:41.479 --> 1:29:44.200
<v Speaker 1>Was this all just a branding exercise for me? And

1:29:44.320 --> 1:29:47.920
<v Speaker 1>it also allows you to understand other people who have

1:29:48.080 --> 1:29:51.840
<v Speaker 1>dealt with getting rejected. I mean, I was rejected from

1:29:51.840 --> 1:29:55.360
<v Speaker 1>the first school I applied for. I was rejected from Gosh,

1:29:55.400 --> 1:29:57.640
<v Speaker 1>I can't even tell you how many different jobs I

1:29:57.680 --> 1:30:00.439
<v Speaker 1>applied for. Technically, the CIA was the first job I

1:30:00.520 --> 1:30:02.080
<v Speaker 1>applied for and I got it. But while I was

1:30:02.120 --> 1:30:04.880
<v Speaker 1>waiting in case I got some amazing offer, I applied

1:30:04.880 --> 1:30:08.320
<v Speaker 1>for all kinds of jobs. Rejected, rejected, rejected. I was

1:30:08.400 --> 1:30:11.960
<v Speaker 1>rejected by the first girl I ever asked asked out.

1:30:12.520 --> 1:30:14.080
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't really on a date. It was kind of

1:30:14.120 --> 1:30:16.559
<v Speaker 1>for like, you know, burger and a coke, But it

1:30:16.600 --> 1:30:18.240
<v Speaker 1>was in the eighth grade and we were at a

1:30:18.360 --> 1:30:20.160
<v Speaker 1>dance and I asked her if she if she would

1:30:20.160 --> 1:30:21.600
<v Speaker 1>go out with me, which meant, do you want to

1:30:21.600 --> 1:30:23.800
<v Speaker 1>go meet up after school and get a burger and

1:30:23.800 --> 1:30:27.360
<v Speaker 1>a coke? She said, no, straight up, shot down. That's right,

1:30:27.720 --> 1:30:33.040
<v Speaker 1>Buck got shot down. And you know when someone breaks

1:30:33.120 --> 1:30:36.160
<v Speaker 1>up with you, when someone doesn't take your application for

1:30:36.200 --> 1:30:38.679
<v Speaker 1>that job and decide to give you the offer. These

1:30:38.800 --> 1:30:43.080
<v Speaker 1>all are important experiences because life is a series of

1:30:43.120 --> 1:30:46.280
<v Speaker 1>getting over rejections. Really, because you don't need to be taught.

1:30:46.720 --> 1:30:48.960
<v Speaker 1>No one needs to be taught really how to deal

1:30:49.000 --> 1:30:51.479
<v Speaker 1>with success. I mean people say, oh, I'm so rich

1:30:51.520 --> 1:30:54.320
<v Speaker 1>and it's hard to head. Yeah. I mean, like in

1:30:54.400 --> 1:30:57.600
<v Speaker 1>normal circumstances, you know how to deal with joy, you

1:30:57.680 --> 1:30:59.519
<v Speaker 1>know how to deal with things going the way you

1:30:59.560 --> 1:31:02.639
<v Speaker 1>want them too. But the better you can get at rejected.

1:31:02.720 --> 1:31:05.960
<v Speaker 1>I remember I got rejected my first day of high school.

1:31:06.120 --> 1:31:09.880
<v Speaker 1>I tried to sit at a table with and I

1:31:09.960 --> 1:31:13.160
<v Speaker 1>remember thinking like, well, like I've seen enough after school specials,

1:31:13.200 --> 1:31:15.519
<v Speaker 1>Like it's our first day, it's his first day, it's

1:31:15.560 --> 1:31:18.920
<v Speaker 1>my first day. He must want to have company, So

1:31:18.960 --> 1:31:21.519
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna go sit next to him. Guess what I said?

1:31:21.560 --> 1:31:23.280
<v Speaker 1>Can I sit here? He was all by himself, this

1:31:23.400 --> 1:31:25.960
<v Speaker 1>big kid who later on we did become friends. He

1:31:26.000 --> 1:31:27.600
<v Speaker 1>said no, you're not allowed to sit there. You're not

1:31:27.640 --> 1:31:30.599
<v Speaker 1>welcome to sit there. First day of high school, I

1:31:30.600 --> 1:31:33.000
<v Speaker 1>had no friends in my class. I didn't know anybody,

1:31:33.120 --> 1:31:34.680
<v Speaker 1>and the first person that I asked to sit with

1:31:34.720 --> 1:31:40.519
<v Speaker 1>at lunch told me no. So get rejected, Get out there.

1:31:40.640 --> 1:31:42.559
<v Speaker 1>Whatever it is that you're doing. Don't be a friend,

1:31:42.640 --> 1:31:45.360
<v Speaker 1>you don't try to be rejected, but never shy away

1:31:45.360 --> 1:31:48.800
<v Speaker 1>from it. Don't be afraid of it. And understand that

1:31:48.920 --> 1:31:52.400
<v Speaker 1>every person that you know who is at the top

1:31:52.439 --> 1:31:55.200
<v Speaker 1>of his or her field, who lead the kind of

1:31:55.240 --> 1:31:57.559
<v Speaker 1>life that you would want to emulate, has dealt with

1:31:58.600 --> 1:32:01.680
<v Speaker 1>massive amounts over their lifetime, all added up together of

1:32:02.320 --> 1:32:06.519
<v Speaker 1>rejection and all of its different varieties. So you view

1:32:06.560 --> 1:32:10.680
<v Speaker 1>it like the soreness you get from working out, or

1:32:10.720 --> 1:32:13.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, view it like the fatigue you feel after

1:32:13.320 --> 1:32:15.720
<v Speaker 1>you've run ten miles. Yeah, your body's breaking down. Your

1:32:15.720 --> 1:32:19.720
<v Speaker 1>body doesn't really like that, but it gets stronger. And

1:32:20.640 --> 1:32:22.920
<v Speaker 1>that's one of the most important things. I also see

1:32:22.960 --> 1:32:26.200
<v Speaker 1>for young people in the everybody gets a trophy generation,

1:32:26.280 --> 1:32:29.719
<v Speaker 1>which are millennials, not the graybeard millennials like me, we're hardcore,

1:32:29.800 --> 1:32:33.360
<v Speaker 1>but the younger millennials. They all think that success is

1:32:33.360 --> 1:32:35.720
<v Speaker 1>measured by never failing. If you've never failed, you're not

1:32:35.800 --> 1:32:38.759
<v Speaker 1>trying hard enough. If you've never failed, you're not taking

1:32:38.840 --> 1:32:44.479
<v Speaker 1>enough risks. And evolutionary biology aside, you can learn to

1:32:44.600 --> 1:32:47.280
<v Speaker 1>deal with rejection of all kinds as long as you

1:32:47.920 --> 1:32:53.240
<v Speaker 1>know that you've approached your task with honor and with dignity.

1:32:53.840 --> 1:32:56.080
<v Speaker 1>So I'm a fan of rejection. And that's really what

1:32:56.160 --> 1:32:57.599
<v Speaker 1>I want to tell you. I think you have to

1:32:57.640 --> 1:33:00.840
<v Speaker 1>just look at in the eye and say, you know,

1:33:01.080 --> 1:33:03.599
<v Speaker 1>the check is in the mail. We'll be right back.

1:33:04.520 --> 1:33:06.920
<v Speaker 1>I have some very important breaking news to share with

1:33:06.960 --> 1:33:08.920
<v Speaker 1>all of you, but I want to pose it as

1:33:08.920 --> 1:33:12.519
<v Speaker 1>a question to my colleagues here. Uh, Brandon, we'll start

1:33:12.520 --> 1:33:14.439
<v Speaker 1>with you. Although it's producer Mike around or is he?

1:33:15.080 --> 1:33:18.920
<v Speaker 1>Is he socializing? Look at him? Look at him? It's

1:33:18.920 --> 1:33:22.720
<v Speaker 1>not producer Mike Socilaur after all, buddy, Um it is.

1:33:22.760 --> 1:33:24.519
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, yeah, that's true. I mean, you know you

1:33:24.520 --> 1:33:26.679
<v Speaker 1>can manage the show well. Plus I'm just a little

1:33:26.680 --> 1:33:28.760
<v Speaker 1>bitter that everyone listening to the show apparently calls it

1:33:28.880 --> 1:33:30.800
<v Speaker 1>just to talk to you now, because you know everyone

1:33:30.800 --> 1:33:32.599
<v Speaker 1>wants to hang out with Mike. I had the best jot, man,

1:33:32.600 --> 1:33:34.000
<v Speaker 1>I sit here, I'm drinking a smoothie and I get

1:33:34.000 --> 1:33:36.720
<v Speaker 1>to listen to you, and you know, it is an

1:33:36.760 --> 1:33:39.280
<v Speaker 1>amazing It is an amazing gig. I would have to agree.

1:33:39.439 --> 1:33:41.960
<v Speaker 1>So let's let's just let's just get this question out

1:33:41.960 --> 1:33:44.680
<v Speaker 1>of the way. M Brandon, start with you. What is

1:33:44.720 --> 1:33:47.880
<v Speaker 1>the according to the American Kennel Club. It's very important stuff.

1:33:47.920 --> 1:33:52.599
<v Speaker 1>What is the most popular dog breed, not including mixed breeds,

1:33:53.000 --> 1:33:57.559
<v Speaker 1>dog breed of twenty eighteen, uh, Golden retriever, anything like that.

1:33:58.000 --> 1:34:02.160
<v Speaker 1>Very good guests, all right, but not corect What about you, producer, Mike,

1:34:04.240 --> 1:34:05.760
<v Speaker 1>I have a dog. I mean, your dog knows one

1:34:05.800 --> 1:34:08.120
<v Speaker 1>of these designer fru fru fancy dogs. I know Cash

1:34:08.240 --> 1:34:10.360
<v Speaker 1>is gonna bite me for saying that, but yeah, you

1:34:10.439 --> 1:34:12.439
<v Speaker 1>don't play hill bark at you though. There you go.

1:34:13.280 --> 1:34:16.920
<v Speaker 1>I would say I would have gone gold. I would,

1:34:16.960 --> 1:34:18.280
<v Speaker 1>let's say, with Brandon said, but since he did it,

1:34:18.280 --> 1:34:22.479
<v Speaker 1>I'll go you got It's very close. No, no, that's

1:34:22.520 --> 1:34:24.679
<v Speaker 1>that's not a bad one. For the twenty eighth year

1:34:24.720 --> 1:34:29.360
<v Speaker 1>in a row, it is the Labrador Retriever. Labs are

1:34:29.600 --> 1:34:35.800
<v Speaker 1>the most popular pure bread dog in the country for

1:34:35.920 --> 1:34:40.719
<v Speaker 1>almost almost three decades. Going now, the other top ten breeds.

1:34:41.640 --> 1:34:44.439
<v Speaker 1>We're pretty much the same, and I'm trying to see

1:34:44.479 --> 1:34:49.120
<v Speaker 1>what we have here. They say that the German shorthaired

1:34:49.200 --> 1:34:52.840
<v Speaker 1>pointer rate was went up. I didn't know what a

1:34:52.880 --> 1:34:56.080
<v Speaker 1>German shorthaired pointer is. Just feel like it's very bossy,

1:34:56.200 --> 1:34:59.799
<v Speaker 1>like I'm German and I'm pointing. And the Yorkshire Terrier

1:35:00.200 --> 1:35:03.360
<v Speaker 1>out of the top ten that or switch ranks with

1:35:03.400 --> 1:35:07.000
<v Speaker 1>a German shorthaired But you know the other ones were

1:35:07.640 --> 1:35:10.200
<v Speaker 1>the German shepherd. This is a top ten dogs by

1:35:10.200 --> 1:35:14.640
<v Speaker 1>popularity in America, the German Shepherd, Golden retriever, French bulldog,

1:35:14.880 --> 1:35:22.160
<v Speaker 1>Standard bulldog, Beagle Poodle, Rottweiler, German shorthaired pointer, and Yorkshire Terrier.

1:35:22.520 --> 1:35:25.280
<v Speaker 1>And that's based on the registration of a million dogs

1:35:25.280 --> 1:35:28.880
<v Speaker 1>and litters each year. Uh. That's look, that's a really

1:35:28.920 --> 1:35:31.000
<v Speaker 1>solid list. By the way, those a lot of my

1:35:31.080 --> 1:35:33.839
<v Speaker 1>favorite dogs are on that list, you guys said. Golden Retriever.

1:35:33.880 --> 1:35:35.760
<v Speaker 1>By the way, that's the number three. So you guys

1:35:35.800 --> 1:35:38.479
<v Speaker 1>are right right in the in the in the hunt

1:35:38.520 --> 1:35:41.280
<v Speaker 1>there French bulldogs. That's what my parents has. I want

1:35:41.280 --> 1:35:43.519
<v Speaker 1>a standard bulldog really badly. But I gotta tell you guys,

1:35:43.560 --> 1:35:46.280
<v Speaker 1>something got a funny you know. My, My, My, wonderful

1:35:46.280 --> 1:35:52.479
<v Speaker 1>co host on Rising has gotten a Bernice Mountain dog,

1:35:53.000 --> 1:35:54.559
<v Speaker 1>which I don't know if you're familiar with that, but

1:35:54.600 --> 1:35:56.559
<v Speaker 1>it is a it is a like a horse, if

1:35:56.600 --> 1:35:59.559
<v Speaker 1>it is a they're very big. I think they're they're

1:35:59.600 --> 1:36:01.920
<v Speaker 1>classific as giant dogs. I mean they're the size of

1:36:01.960 --> 1:36:04.799
<v Speaker 1>like a Great Dane or and it's only a puppy

1:36:04.840 --> 1:36:07.080
<v Speaker 1>that's about seven or eight months old. I think at

1:36:07.080 --> 1:36:09.479
<v Speaker 1>this point I was six or seven months old. But

1:36:09.800 --> 1:36:15.080
<v Speaker 1>Crystal has three kids who are you know, two years old,

1:36:15.479 --> 1:36:17.759
<v Speaker 1>five years old, and ten years old. There so something

1:36:17.760 --> 1:36:20.879
<v Speaker 1>along those lines. And you know, they've got this sweet

1:36:20.880 --> 1:36:24.160
<v Speaker 1>and Bernie's mound dogs are beautiful dogs. I mean they

1:36:24.200 --> 1:36:27.080
<v Speaker 1>look like something out of a story book. They're so cute.

1:36:27.080 --> 1:36:28.600
<v Speaker 1>They're you know, they look like something out of you know,

1:36:28.600 --> 1:36:30.960
<v Speaker 1>Alice in Wonderland or Peter Pan, although I know Peter

1:36:31.000 --> 1:36:33.360
<v Speaker 1>Pan's actually a Saint Bernard, but same idea. They're kind

1:36:33.360 --> 1:36:36.160
<v Speaker 1>of Saint Bernard like. But this dog, it's trying to

1:36:36.200 --> 1:36:38.080
<v Speaker 1>be sweet. It runs around and it just lays the

1:36:38.160 --> 1:36:40.000
<v Speaker 1>kid out of the kids out apparently all the time

1:36:40.479 --> 1:36:43.880
<v Speaker 1>because it jumps up with its big paws and knocks

1:36:43.880 --> 1:36:46.200
<v Speaker 1>them down. And this is where I get into the fierce,

1:36:46.600 --> 1:36:48.880
<v Speaker 1>the fierce debate with some of my fellow dog lovers

1:36:48.880 --> 1:36:51.280
<v Speaker 1>out there who are just like a small dogs not

1:36:51.439 --> 1:36:54.120
<v Speaker 1>a real dog. I'm like, I'm sorry, a dog is

1:36:54.120 --> 1:36:58.080
<v Speaker 1>a dog. They're all canines, and it's a lot for

1:36:58.160 --> 1:37:00.479
<v Speaker 1>a lot of like how big is your dog, Mike?

1:37:00.800 --> 1:37:03.799
<v Speaker 1>What is it? Ten pounds? Fifteen pounds? Yeah, yeah, yeah,

1:37:03.840 --> 1:37:05.840
<v Speaker 1>exactly right in between there, you know. I mean, if

1:37:05.840 --> 1:37:08.000
<v Speaker 1>your dog gets a little gets a little lippy with you,

1:37:08.000 --> 1:37:09.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, if it gets a little uh, you know,

1:37:09.720 --> 1:37:11.680
<v Speaker 1>if his attitude needs improve it, you can just pick

1:37:11.760 --> 1:37:15.559
<v Speaker 1>him up exactly. You know, my older brother has an

1:37:15.600 --> 1:37:17.920
<v Speaker 1>adorable dog that he rescued, so no one's allowed to

1:37:17.920 --> 1:37:20.200
<v Speaker 1>standing bad about rescue dogs because they rescued it from

1:37:20.200 --> 1:37:23.559
<v Speaker 1>like an alleyway in Texas. But it's a Pomeranian and

1:37:23.600 --> 1:37:28.320
<v Speaker 1>he wears a little diaper around the house. That's hilarious.

1:37:28.360 --> 1:37:30.280
<v Speaker 1>I actually saw it a pet story recently. I didn't

1:37:30.280 --> 1:37:33.200
<v Speaker 1>know that existed. Yeah, people now, people now. It's it's

1:37:33.240 --> 1:37:35.920
<v Speaker 1>increasingly common for the smaller dogs that you know, you

1:37:35.960 --> 1:37:37.479
<v Speaker 1>still need to walk them, and they still need that,

1:37:37.560 --> 1:37:39.080
<v Speaker 1>but you know, just in case they walk around a

1:37:39.080 --> 1:37:41.920
<v Speaker 1>little little, a little dipeyon and they go. And I

1:37:42.040 --> 1:37:43.720
<v Speaker 1>know so many people listening to show are like, I

1:37:43.920 --> 1:37:47.400
<v Speaker 1>have a Rhodesian ridge back and a German shepherd, and

1:37:47.680 --> 1:37:50.920
<v Speaker 1>you know they would never look. I love big dogs too, don't.

1:37:50.640 --> 1:37:55.080
<v Speaker 1>I love all dogs except maybe poodles. I just I can't,

1:37:55.160 --> 1:37:57.000
<v Speaker 1>I know, And and the poodle owners out there get

1:37:57.040 --> 1:37:59.519
<v Speaker 1>so mad at me, but I just something about them.

1:37:59.640 --> 1:38:03.200
<v Speaker 1>I feel like they're judging me. But when you get

1:38:03.240 --> 1:38:05.320
<v Speaker 1>a smaller dog, it's easier. I mean, Mike, you probably

1:38:05.320 --> 1:38:06.920
<v Speaker 1>take yours on the subway with you. Do you get

1:38:06.960 --> 1:38:09.479
<v Speaker 1>one of those little carrying cases for it. I have

1:38:09.560 --> 1:38:11.840
<v Speaker 1>a bag just so I can sneak him into my

1:38:11.880 --> 1:38:17.200
<v Speaker 1>office here. So yeah, hopefully nobody's listening, but that you're

1:38:17.240 --> 1:38:20.120
<v Speaker 1>totally right. It's way easier to carry out, especially when

1:38:20.120 --> 1:38:22.240
<v Speaker 1>you live in a big city. I take him pretty

1:38:22.280 --> 1:38:24.880
<v Speaker 1>try to take him everywhere I go, and it's just, yeah,

1:38:24.880 --> 1:38:27.320
<v Speaker 1>it's way easier. That's where my dream dog is an

1:38:27.320 --> 1:38:30.479
<v Speaker 1>English bulldog, because just big enough the week and wrestle

1:38:30.520 --> 1:38:32.720
<v Speaker 1>a little bit, yeah, but but but slow enough and

1:38:32.760 --> 1:38:34.680
<v Speaker 1>fat enough that like me, he's just gonna want to

1:38:34.760 --> 1:38:36.960
<v Speaker 1>chill out on the couch and not move and you

1:38:36.960 --> 1:38:39.360
<v Speaker 1>know we're just gonna be bud. So yeah, that's my plan.

1:38:39.560 --> 1:38:41.280
<v Speaker 1>That's my struggle right now is getting like a dog

1:38:41.280 --> 1:38:44.400
<v Speaker 1>to be as lazy as me. The struggle is real,

1:38:44.479 --> 1:38:47.000
<v Speaker 1>my man. Speaking of the struggle, you guys know what

1:38:47.040 --> 1:38:50.479
<v Speaker 1>time it is next roll call time. It's coming up. Well, team,

1:38:50.520 --> 1:38:53.799
<v Speaker 1>we've got a busy couple of weeks in the Freedom

1:38:53.880 --> 1:38:59.120
<v Speaker 1>Hut planned. Next week I will be down in El Paso, Texas,

1:38:59.479 --> 1:39:02.760
<v Speaker 1>visiting with members of Border Patrol and also Immigrations and

1:39:02.760 --> 1:39:07.920
<v Speaker 1>Customs Enforcement. We'll be getting together some interviews, bringing you

1:39:08.000 --> 1:39:10.080
<v Speaker 1>ground truth about what's really happening down there. And this

1:39:10.120 --> 1:39:15.479
<v Speaker 1>will be right before the numbers of inadmissible crossings or

1:39:15.520 --> 1:39:19.920
<v Speaker 1>at least for the month, and they were projected last

1:39:19.960 --> 1:39:22.479
<v Speaker 1>month for this month to break one hundred thousand, which

1:39:22.520 --> 1:39:26.000
<v Speaker 1>would put us on pace for a million for the

1:39:26.120 --> 1:39:29.439
<v Speaker 1>year if that continued, which would put us at an

1:39:29.479 --> 1:39:33.320
<v Speaker 1>all time in all time record territory for inadmissible and

1:39:33.360 --> 1:39:36.720
<v Speaker 1>illegal crossings at our southern border. So I think it's

1:39:36.720 --> 1:39:39.320
<v Speaker 1>important to get down there and really see and speak

1:39:39.360 --> 1:39:43.640
<v Speaker 1>the folks on the front lines. That'll be next Thursday

1:39:43.680 --> 1:39:47.200
<v Speaker 1>and Friday. We'll be doing the show from El Paso

1:39:47.320 --> 1:39:52.600
<v Speaker 1>next Thursday Friday, I might because of travel timing, I

1:39:52.680 --> 1:39:54.320
<v Speaker 1>might have to have a sub, but as you know,

1:39:54.360 --> 1:39:56.840
<v Speaker 1>if we have a sub, it'll be a fantastic one.

1:39:56.880 --> 1:40:02.360
<v Speaker 1>And then for the following Monday Tuesday, I will be

1:40:02.479 --> 1:40:07.360
<v Speaker 1>on in Savannah, and I also am thinking I will

1:40:07.400 --> 1:40:11.800
<v Speaker 1>probably be down in Richmond, Virginia soon as well. So

1:40:12.000 --> 1:40:15.639
<v Speaker 1>I've got all all kinds of things going on, which

1:40:15.720 --> 1:40:17.439
<v Speaker 1>doesn't affect the show. I just like to tell you

1:40:17.479 --> 1:40:19.680
<v Speaker 1>that I'm traveling around places, so you don't think that

1:40:19.720 --> 1:40:21.719
<v Speaker 1>I'm just stuck here in the swamp and not getting

1:40:21.760 --> 1:40:26.680
<v Speaker 1>to live life a little bit more. And with that

1:40:27.320 --> 1:40:31.479
<v Speaker 1>it is time for our role call. Emily writes, Hey, Buck,

1:40:31.520 --> 1:40:34.120
<v Speaker 1>I heard you mentioned the other day that we should

1:40:34.120 --> 1:40:38.120
<v Speaker 1>give Twitter a try. Although I am technically a millennial,

1:40:38.280 --> 1:40:40.719
<v Speaker 1>this was a form of social media I just preferred

1:40:40.760 --> 1:40:43.439
<v Speaker 1>not to deal with. However, I signed up today. I

1:40:43.479 --> 1:40:46.639
<v Speaker 1>was blown away by the list of suggested people to follow.

1:40:47.000 --> 1:40:50.360
<v Speaker 1>It was basically a list of left wing politicians. Hillary

1:40:50.400 --> 1:40:53.800
<v Speaker 1>Clinton was the third suggestion. The President wasn't even on

1:40:53.840 --> 1:40:56.559
<v Speaker 1>the list. The amazing thing is that when I selected

1:40:56.560 --> 1:40:59.160
<v Speaker 1>my interests, I did not even include politics. It was

1:40:59.200 --> 1:41:03.040
<v Speaker 1>supposed to be and wellness, wow, I even took a

1:41:03.040 --> 1:41:06.040
<v Speaker 1>little video of the computer screen to prove their complete bias. Anyway,

1:41:06.080 --> 1:41:07.800
<v Speaker 1>I love your show and I appreciate you keeping it

1:41:07.840 --> 1:41:10.920
<v Speaker 1>real for those of paying attention. Not all millennials need

1:41:11.040 --> 1:41:14.680
<v Speaker 1>help tying their shoes shields high. Emily. Well, thank you

1:41:14.720 --> 1:41:17.800
<v Speaker 1>so much, Emily, and I appreciate that you are willing

1:41:17.840 --> 1:41:21.040
<v Speaker 1>to give Twitter a shot because I said, it's an

1:41:21.040 --> 1:41:25.000
<v Speaker 1>important medium these days. So yeah, I'm not surprised at

1:41:25.000 --> 1:41:28.600
<v Speaker 1>all that you have a lot of left wing suggestions

1:41:28.640 --> 1:41:31.160
<v Speaker 1>that pop up right away in your feet. That's more

1:41:31.240 --> 1:41:34.639
<v Speaker 1>or less what I would what I would expect in

1:41:34.680 --> 1:41:39.799
<v Speaker 1>those kinds of circumstances because Twitter is a left leaning medium.

1:41:39.800 --> 1:41:43.000
<v Speaker 1>It just is. The people who run it are leftists,

1:41:43.000 --> 1:41:49.120
<v Speaker 1>the people who overwhelmingly use it are often leftists. I mean,

1:41:49.160 --> 1:41:52.800
<v Speaker 1>the left has made a very deep burrow into the

1:41:52.800 --> 1:41:58.679
<v Speaker 1>heart of the Twitter accracy. Martin Rights. Muller was supposed

1:41:58.720 --> 1:42:02.120
<v Speaker 1>to find Russian collusion and found nothing with Trump. It

1:42:02.160 --> 1:42:04.559
<v Speaker 1>looks like there was plenty of evidence of Russian collusion

1:42:04.560 --> 1:42:07.360
<v Speaker 1>with Hillary and the DNC that was ignored and later

1:42:07.439 --> 1:42:11.320
<v Speaker 1>covered up by Mueller. Isn't that considered obstruction by a

1:42:11.400 --> 1:42:14.639
<v Speaker 1>bad cop. Well, Martin, I certainly agree with you that

1:42:14.760 --> 1:42:20.120
<v Speaker 1>Mueller didn't find Russian collusion. As to whether we will

1:42:20.560 --> 1:42:26.519
<v Speaker 1>hear anything about the obstruction that was, well no, I mean,

1:42:26.680 --> 1:42:29.640
<v Speaker 1>you're essentially saying that the Russia collusion with Hillary and

1:42:29.680 --> 1:42:33.120
<v Speaker 1>the DNC was ignored and covered up by Mueller. You know,

1:42:33.320 --> 1:42:35.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't think we have a legal case really to

1:42:35.840 --> 1:42:39.599
<v Speaker 1>make there because it falls in the very broad area

1:42:39.960 --> 1:42:43.639
<v Speaker 1>of the discretion of the bureaucrats involved. So if they're

1:42:43.680 --> 1:42:46.320
<v Speaker 1>allowed to do something, you know, keep in mind, whatever

1:42:46.360 --> 1:42:49.040
<v Speaker 1>a cop stops you, the cop can basically say, oh,

1:42:49.120 --> 1:42:50.760
<v Speaker 1>you were going one hundred and twenty miles an hour,

1:42:50.840 --> 1:42:52.519
<v Speaker 1>you know what, you look like you're having a rough day,

1:42:52.560 --> 1:42:54.360
<v Speaker 1>so I'm not I'm not gonna give you a ticket

1:42:54.400 --> 1:42:58.320
<v Speaker 1>or arrescue. The police generally can't be disciplined for that,

1:42:58.760 --> 1:43:01.040
<v Speaker 1>at least as far as I know. I know that

1:43:01.080 --> 1:43:03.880
<v Speaker 1>they have a lot of discretion, and I know for

1:43:03.920 --> 1:43:06.320
<v Speaker 1>a fact that prosecutors can say, you know what, we're

1:43:06.360 --> 1:43:07.800
<v Speaker 1>just not going to bring this case. We're not going

1:43:07.880 --> 1:43:10.799
<v Speaker 1>to bring these charges. And even if it's really unjust

1:43:10.880 --> 1:43:15.120
<v Speaker 1>for them to not bring charges, there really isn't any

1:43:15.240 --> 1:43:19.920
<v Speaker 1>disciplinary mechanism in place that would come back to bite them.

1:43:20.680 --> 1:43:26.120
<v Speaker 1>But thanks for writing in, Martin Keith Rights and he

1:43:26.200 --> 1:43:27.960
<v Speaker 1>sent me a photo of a whole bunch of cats

1:43:28.760 --> 1:43:34.080
<v Speaker 1>and it's a cat nip den. Huh. Interesting. I'm pretty

1:43:34.160 --> 1:43:37.960
<v Speaker 1>sure I was listening to the Joe Rogan Show with

1:43:38.040 --> 1:43:41.920
<v Speaker 1>Alex Jones, which was a very I rarely have the

1:43:41.960 --> 1:43:44.400
<v Speaker 1>time to listen to anyone else's shows these days, but

1:43:44.600 --> 1:43:46.840
<v Speaker 1>that one I had to check it out, and I'm

1:43:46.880 --> 1:43:48.920
<v Speaker 1>sure I think there was a discussion about like cat ladies,

1:43:48.960 --> 1:43:51.040
<v Speaker 1>old ladies and like you know, diseases of the brain

1:43:51.120 --> 1:43:54.240
<v Speaker 1>from the cats, and they really got into it. So

1:43:55.280 --> 1:43:58.600
<v Speaker 1>that's the thing that happened. Valerie right, still trying to

1:43:58.640 --> 1:44:01.600
<v Speaker 1>catch up on the podcast. On Monday, Richard made a

1:44:01.640 --> 1:44:04.080
<v Speaker 1>comment on what is well read? Why not start a

1:44:04.120 --> 1:44:06.720
<v Speaker 1>Freedom Hunt book club? Each month you would suggest a

1:44:06.760 --> 1:44:09.000
<v Speaker 1>different book. You could have a history, fiction, economics, and

1:44:09.000 --> 1:44:13.599
<v Speaker 1>world affairs rotation. Well, Valorie, know, I like to think

1:44:13.600 --> 1:44:16.959
<v Speaker 1>that this radio show in a sense is a book club,

1:44:17.000 --> 1:44:22.840
<v Speaker 1>because it's a I constantly I'm telling you about books

1:44:22.840 --> 1:44:24.760
<v Speaker 1>that either I have read or want to read, that

1:44:24.800 --> 1:44:27.280
<v Speaker 1>have been highly recommended to me. Acagea I'll tell you

1:44:27.280 --> 1:44:29.840
<v Speaker 1>about a book that that stinks. You know, I'm reading

1:44:29.840 --> 1:44:31.880
<v Speaker 1>this Lost City of the Monkey God right now. I've

1:44:31.880 --> 1:44:34.920
<v Speaker 1>got a few books in rotation, but I'm reading The

1:44:34.960 --> 1:44:40.840
<v Speaker 1>Lost City of the Monkey God, and it's I just

1:44:40.880 --> 1:44:43.240
<v Speaker 1>can't get that excited about archaeology. I don't know some

1:44:43.280 --> 1:44:46.719
<v Speaker 1>people really, you know, when you don't have Indiana Jones

1:44:46.720 --> 1:44:49.479
<v Speaker 1>and a bull whip and you know, gunfights and fistfights

1:44:49.520 --> 1:44:52.160
<v Speaker 1>on top of trains and stuff, a lot of archaeology

1:44:52.280 --> 1:44:55.559
<v Speaker 1>is oh, this very important, this this stunning discovery of

1:44:55.600 --> 1:44:59.240
<v Speaker 1>the large earth mound? What was it used for burial

1:44:59.680 --> 1:45:04.760
<v Speaker 1>or other ceremonial purposes five hundred years ago. I'm not

1:45:04.800 --> 1:45:07.360
<v Speaker 1>saying it's not interesting at all. I'm obviously reading the book,

1:45:07.360 --> 1:45:11.080
<v Speaker 1>but you know, I'm not loving it. I'm not loving it.

1:45:11.200 --> 1:45:12.720
<v Speaker 1>And there's a little too much of the guy who

1:45:12.720 --> 1:45:16.240
<v Speaker 1>writes the book, like there's so many dangerous snakes everywhere.

1:45:16.560 --> 1:45:19.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, look, dude, as long as you're not getting

1:45:19.040 --> 1:45:22.120
<v Speaker 1>kowala lamidia, you know you're gonna be okay. All right,

1:45:22.160 --> 1:45:25.439
<v Speaker 1>you can handle the fair delance, which is a form

1:45:25.479 --> 1:45:29.519
<v Speaker 1>of a type of pit viper. That's right, Kowala lamidia.

1:45:29.560 --> 1:45:33.679
<v Speaker 1>You got to be careful, folks. It's out there from

1:45:33.720 --> 1:45:36.879
<v Speaker 1>their puddles of little kawala urine. So it's an important

1:45:36.920 --> 1:45:40.040
<v Speaker 1>safety tip for those of you wandering down to Australia sometime.

1:45:41.600 --> 1:45:45.120
<v Speaker 1>Let's see. But if you're looking for a great book recommendation,

1:45:45.280 --> 1:45:49.879
<v Speaker 1>you know, I recently read Endurance about the Shackleton Voyage,

1:45:50.360 --> 1:45:52.240
<v Speaker 1>and I had I knew this story is one of

1:45:52.320 --> 1:45:54.360
<v Speaker 1>these things where I knew the story really well. But man,

1:45:54.400 --> 1:45:57.639
<v Speaker 1>that book is incredible and I recommended it through my dad.

1:45:57.720 --> 1:46:01.280
<v Speaker 1>My dad loved it, So I really really recommend if

1:46:01.280 --> 1:46:02.680
<v Speaker 1>you're looking for something that's just going to be a

1:46:02.800 --> 1:46:06.400
<v Speaker 1>kind of a fun read that's timeless Ernest Shackleton's Voyage

1:46:06.400 --> 1:46:08.320
<v Speaker 1>and the title of the the book is Endurance. I forget

1:46:08.360 --> 1:46:11.000
<v Speaker 1>the author's name, but it's a great it's a great,

1:46:11.080 --> 1:46:18.120
<v Speaker 1>fun and historically accurate read. Tommy. Tommy writes, Buck, take

1:46:18.120 --> 1:46:19.920
<v Speaker 1>a look at that and tell me that media hype

1:46:19.960 --> 1:46:21.960
<v Speaker 1>isn't driving something that will ultimately be a problem for

1:46:22.000 --> 1:46:26.200
<v Speaker 1>a lot of children. He's writing me about transgender activists

1:46:26.240 --> 1:46:28.600
<v Speaker 1>talking to kids. Yeah, I mean, I think this is

1:46:28.640 --> 1:46:31.200
<v Speaker 1>brainwashing for our kids. I think it's really bad. I'm

1:46:31.280 --> 1:46:34.639
<v Speaker 1>very concerned about it. I wish the left would stop

1:46:34.680 --> 1:46:37.080
<v Speaker 1>being so crazy when it comes to I mean, it's

1:46:37.120 --> 1:46:40.240
<v Speaker 1>one thing to promote transgenderism in different ways for adults,

1:46:41.080 --> 1:46:46.880
<v Speaker 1>it's another thing to promote transgenderism to little kids. No

1:46:46.920 --> 1:46:49.240
<v Speaker 1>one out there, there is not a single medical professional

1:46:49.240 --> 1:46:52.280
<v Speaker 1>who can really tell you what the long term effects

1:46:52.360 --> 1:46:58.479
<v Speaker 1>of gender transition hormones for a teenager would be because

1:46:58.479 --> 1:47:01.639
<v Speaker 1>it's such a new practice, so it's not actually really

1:47:01.680 --> 1:47:05.120
<v Speaker 1>feasible for anyone to say, well, in twenty years, you'll

1:47:05.120 --> 1:47:07.040
<v Speaker 1>actually be happy you did this, or you won't have

1:47:07.600 --> 1:47:11.000
<v Speaker 1>a whole slew of severe health risks. And they have

1:47:11.040 --> 1:47:14.400
<v Speaker 1>no idea. They're politicizing not just science, but in this case,

1:47:14.439 --> 1:47:21.599
<v Speaker 1>they're politicizing medicine, which is always really damaging, and it's

1:47:21.640 --> 1:47:24.960
<v Speaker 1>upsetic because people are going to suffer terrible consequences as

1:47:24.960 --> 1:47:28.200
<v Speaker 1>a result of it. Key and little kids may be

1:47:28.240 --> 1:47:31.719
<v Speaker 1>suffering consequences too, Keith writes, the standard Belt color system

1:47:31.840 --> 1:47:39.559
<v Speaker 1>for martial arts is white, yellow, gold, orange, green, blue, purple, brown, red,

1:47:39.640 --> 1:47:43.000
<v Speaker 1>and black. Wow, that's a lot of Belts music. At

1:47:43.040 --> 1:47:44.439
<v Speaker 1>the beginning of the show, I believe you've heard to

1:47:44.439 --> 1:47:46.880
<v Speaker 1>it as dubstep. I searched for thirty minutes and found

1:47:46.880 --> 1:47:49.120
<v Speaker 1>a different found a bunch of different versions. Can you

1:47:49.160 --> 1:47:51.759
<v Speaker 1>give me the infront the version you played. I assume

1:47:51.800 --> 1:47:54.080
<v Speaker 1>it's a dubstep style and has been been performed by

1:47:54.080 --> 1:47:56.760
<v Speaker 1>many artists. Thanks in advance, Keith, Keith. The music that

1:47:56.880 --> 1:48:00.559
<v Speaker 1>we play is licensed music because we don't we don't

1:48:00.600 --> 1:48:03.040
<v Speaker 1>want to pay for you know, it would be fun,

1:48:03.560 --> 1:48:05.920
<v Speaker 1>like if if I could just pick a song that

1:48:06.080 --> 1:48:09.080
<v Speaker 1>we would start out this show with. I don't know,

1:48:09.120 --> 1:48:11.840
<v Speaker 1>it might be, you know, in Living Color, Cult of

1:48:11.920 --> 1:48:15.840
<v Speaker 1>Personality or something. I mean that guitar riff something like that.

1:48:15.800 --> 1:48:18.080
<v Speaker 1>That would be fun, but but that would cost I

1:48:18.120 --> 1:48:22.120
<v Speaker 1>don't know, it would cost the show half a million,

1:48:22.120 --> 1:48:24.720
<v Speaker 1>a million dollars something like that. So instead we have

1:48:25.320 --> 1:48:28.400
<v Speaker 1>license music, which can be good. It can be good,

1:48:28.439 --> 1:48:31.200
<v Speaker 1>but it's produced by these companies that make license. So

1:48:31.360 --> 1:48:33.960
<v Speaker 1>the answer is, my friend, you've got to just go

1:48:34.000 --> 1:48:40.479
<v Speaker 1>to if you get a music licensing access, then you

1:48:40.520 --> 1:48:42.479
<v Speaker 1>can find things like that, but it's not a real

1:48:42.520 --> 1:48:44.280
<v Speaker 1>song that you can download or buy off of if

1:48:44.320 --> 1:48:46.440
<v Speaker 1>it but I like it too, it's actually good dubsteps.

1:48:46.520 --> 1:48:52.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm glad you agree with me. You're huh. Rights Buck

1:48:53.080 --> 1:48:57.400
<v Speaker 1>County is one more that agrees with you regarding athletic scholarships.

1:48:58.680 --> 1:49:01.800
<v Speaker 1>Colleges for academics and sports should be an activity for

1:49:01.920 --> 1:49:04.240
<v Speaker 1>a break from studies. Have the teams, but the players

1:49:04.280 --> 1:49:06.439
<v Speaker 1>should come from the student body that is there to

1:49:06.479 --> 1:49:09.439
<v Speaker 1>get an education. Let football start a minor league like

1:49:09.479 --> 1:49:11.800
<v Speaker 1>baseball and recruit those out of high school that don't

1:49:11.840 --> 1:49:15.360
<v Speaker 1>want to sit in classrooms anymore. Johan, I totally agree.

1:49:15.400 --> 1:49:18.080
<v Speaker 1>I also think you look at athletic careers for people

1:49:18.120 --> 1:49:21.400
<v Speaker 1>that really are going to go pro, and a lot

1:49:21.479 --> 1:49:24.679
<v Speaker 1>of them would be well served to go pro and

1:49:24.880 --> 1:49:28.519
<v Speaker 1>either do part time school off off season or to

1:49:28.760 --> 1:49:30.599
<v Speaker 1>go to school full time. And you know there are

1:49:30.720 --> 1:49:33.720
<v Speaker 1>late twenties, early thirties, there's it's just we need to

1:49:33.760 --> 1:49:37.320
<v Speaker 1>rethink this paradigm that the NC Double A is effectively

1:49:37.360 --> 1:49:41.519
<v Speaker 1>a giant minor league sports franchise that uses college campuses

1:49:41.560 --> 1:49:44.559
<v Speaker 1>as its incubators. It's just not It's just not the

1:49:44.600 --> 1:49:46.679
<v Speaker 1>way that it should be. And I know people get

1:49:46.760 --> 1:49:49.479
<v Speaker 1>very angry at me on this one, but I'm also right.

1:49:49.560 --> 1:49:52.639
<v Speaker 1>So it's fun to be right because I'm right. Team.

1:49:52.800 --> 1:49:55.160
<v Speaker 1>Honor and privilege to have had you with me here

1:49:55.160 --> 1:49:58.120
<v Speaker 1>in the Hut. Thank you so much for listening, Beware

1:49:58.160 --> 1:50:01.639
<v Speaker 1>of angry koalas, and till tomorrow she'll tie
