Cash was the acting chief of 13 00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:47,519 Speaker 1: staff for the Secretary of Defense in the Trump administration. 14 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:51,240 Speaker 1: I'll be joining us later on the program too.

You are right, 17 00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:58,600 Speaker 1: We're gonna have to do six hours of radio a day. 18 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 1: I'm getting roughed up in the mark it right now. 19 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 1: It's not good. Yeah, not well as we speak. By 20 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:07,759 Speaker 1: the way, the Tao is down over a thousand points, 21 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 1: which is not a good day. And by the way, Buck, 22 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: the one thing you could point to if you are 23 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:17,399 Speaker 1: a Biden supporter is that the stock market has not 24 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 1: been a disaster. If you're at so much for that one. 25 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,960 Speaker 1: I knew smug democrats a year ago. Right around now 26 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: we're saying, oh, that's buddon. Economy is not going to 27 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: be good because the stuf, you know, and they were 28 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 1: making jokes because the stock market was actually doing pretty well. 29 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: So much for that one. Oh and also inflation of 30 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 1: the highest it's been in forty years. So we'll talk 31 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: about the economy more on the border crisis, the climate 32 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 1: advisor to Clay will discuss that. Just to give you 33 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,399 Speaker 1: a sense of some people, know, there are things that 34 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 1: really set me off. People who speak on their phones 35 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: in public places on speaker phone, like there's no one 36 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 1: else there, Like I'm in a crowded restaurant, I'm just 37 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 1: gonna speak on. I lose my mind, Like I definitely 38 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: don't handle that well. Um. But people who in government 39 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 1: think that endless regulations and harassment in this case around 40 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 1: appliances is a good idea. You know, your refrigerator has 41 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,399 Speaker 1: to be compliant with fifty new rules or else. Yeah, 42 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:14,919 Speaker 1: we'll talk about that, but I want to start with 43 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:18,360 Speaker 1: a basic premise here, and it is one that I 44 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: think is going to have a major effect, and Clay 45 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,679 Speaker 1: and I've been discussing this on air with you and 46 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,080 Speaker 1: off air alone, a major effect on the midterm election. 47 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 1: But we've got to make sure everyone's clear on it. 48 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 1: The Democrats have betrayed kids. They've made decisions that have 49 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:39,919 Speaker 1: really hurt kids all across the country. Now we can 50 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: and we will continue to talk about the issue of 51 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: abortion roversus Wade and the decades long moral stain on 52 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 1: our country from that. I'm actually not even speaking but 53 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: that specifically right now, although that certainly comes into the equation. 54 00:02:55,720 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: But they've betrayed kids with the indoctrination of them from 55 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:07,959 Speaker 1: CRT as we know, and transidentity agenda for very young kids, 56 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 1: and now, Clay the one that I think is the 57 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 1: most because people are going to argue on those a 58 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,079 Speaker 1: whole lot, right, So that's what I mean by we'll 59 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 1: continue to talk about those issues. Well, can you talk 60 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 1: about abortion. We'll continue to talk about the fight for 61 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: life and also the fight for non indoctrination of kids 62 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 1: in school. This piece in the New York Times, You 63 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,800 Speaker 1: and I are both reading this this morning on school 64 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: closures is absolutely devastating because this is no longer in 65 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 1: the realm of oh, we're gonna make an argument, They're 66 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,840 Speaker 1: going to make an argument. This is now. We have 67 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: the data, we have studies, we have test scores, we 68 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: have results. And the quick summary of this is Democrats 69 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: overwhelmingly pushed for and put aside. I'm not even going 70 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 1: to talk about the second semester you could call it 71 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty. I'll give that one a pass for 72 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 1: people were scared. It was early. We didn't know as 73 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: much starting in the fall of twenty twenty, when Florida 74 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 1: was open Fall of twenty twenty, going into that election, 75 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 1: and then certainly in twenty twenty one, we had more 76 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: than enough data to know the following things were true. 77 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 1: Children were at no real risk from COVID. Children were 78 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: not a major source of spread of COVID. Children were 79 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 1: going to be dramatically harmed socially developmentally by the school closures. 80 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: Democrat enclaves, Democrat blue cities and states were much worse 81 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: off with this than everywhere else. Clay top to bottom 82 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: school closures were wrong and disastrous and the Democrats need 83 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 1: to be made to own this. Yeah, if I could 84 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 1: go back in time, Buck and get Trump to focus 85 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 1: on one thing that I think was wildly underplayed in 86 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty presidential election, he should have gone all 87 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 1: in on every school needs to be back open. And 88 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 1: I'm fortunate because I live in a red state, in 89 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:00,720 Speaker 1: a red county, in a red state. Kids went back 90 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 1: to school in early August of twenty twenty with no issues, 91 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,599 Speaker 1: but The New York Times finally getting around to covering 92 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 1: this after two years reading it. This morning, we talked 93 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 1: about this, Buck, And I've known and been talking about 94 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:20,160 Speaker 1: it really since the summer of twenty twenty, because I 95 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 1: talked to a bunch of different teachers who were in 96 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 1: disadvantaged schools however you want to quantify it, And they 97 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 1: were talking about they had kids who were studying for 98 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: AP exams, and they said, well, we'll just go remote 99 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 1: in the summer. We'll be able to talk to everybody 100 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 1: that way. And I was talking to an AP history 101 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: teacher at actually a wedding, and he was discussing the 102 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:49,360 Speaker 1: fact that his kids were having to drive to McDonald's 103 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 1: parking lots and sit in the McDonald's parking lot to 104 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: be able to get on Wi Fi. And that was 105 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: if they had access to being able to get to 106 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 1: the McDonald's. And what rapidly should have become crystal clear 107 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: to anyone out there was one remote learning as an oxymoron. 108 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: It doesn't actually work. And two, even for remote learning, 109 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 1: it is a privileged process to have a laptop and 110 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:24,840 Speaker 1: a workable WiFi and an adult supervisory figure who can 111 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 1: get you on the computer. And so the Party of Equity, 112 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: I mean, it's an astounding irony. The party that claimed 113 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 1: that it was so focused on equity in the wake 114 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:41,720 Speaker 1: of George Floyd and abandoned equality ended up with the 115 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 1: least equitable policy in the twenty first century. And in 116 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 1: most of our lives and young minority, underprivileged kids overwhelmingly 117 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: bore the brunt of schools not being open. And this 118 00:06:56,400 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 1: is a quote from Thomas Kane, who wrote an a 119 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 1: massive Harvard study on the futility of remote learning. He said, 120 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 1: first of all, the data showed that low income students, 121 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 1: in particular black and Latino students fell farther behind over 122 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 1: the past two years relative to students who are high income, 123 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: white or Asian. And here's a direct quote from Thomas Kane, 124 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 1: this will probably be the largest increase in educational educational 125 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 1: iniquity in a generation. Democrats caused that, and their teachers, unions, 126 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 1: and their politicians and everybody who helped to make this 127 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 1: policy happen. Buck. This is why this election has to 128 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 1: be a reckoning. There have to be consequences for the 129 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 1: biggest public policy failure of our lives, most of us, 130 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 1: or what's the point of an election at all. There 131 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: has to be a red wave to punish these people. 132 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 1: There are two areas that I want to make sure 133 00:07:56,040 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: that we don't forget either in all of this, because sure, 134 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 1: you and I sat here together for many months talking 135 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: about how as soon as they look at the numbers, 136 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 1: you're going to find out I mean high poverty schools. 137 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: They said this, and this is in the Harvard University study. 138 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: I think that you were referencing clay from that New 139 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 1: York Times piece almost fourteen weeks of learning loss from 140 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 1: remote It's meaning that it's almost like kids just weren't 141 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 1: in school for you know, a third of the school year. 142 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 1: Let's call it, right, I mean roughly and beyond that 143 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:33,320 Speaker 1: or whatever the actual weeks add up to and beyond that. 144 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 1: The whole premise of this was that there would be 145 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 1: attendant benefit, right that there was, So it was weird 146 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: because everyone knew this was going to be bad for 147 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 1: kids at some level. It was worse than the Libs 148 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 1: said it would be. It was worse than the Democrats 149 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 1: said it would be. But they also said, well, this 150 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 1: is a necessary thing for safety. Were the serious people, 151 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: we need better filters in school They had, they have had. 152 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 1: Huge sums of money have gone toward COVID uh, you know, 153 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 1: COVID proofing and COVID assistance in the school system. I'd 154 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 1: be very curious to know what that money was actually 155 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,319 Speaker 1: spent on. But the part of this that's so harpring. 156 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,439 Speaker 1: We have the data on learning loss, which is catastrophic 157 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 1: for particularly low income black and Latino students, young students 158 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 1: who for whom the school system is so essential. So 159 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 1: the learning loss was already behind buck Let's be clear 160 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 1: about that. They were already behind, and then we just 161 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: made it so much worse as a country. So it 162 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 1: was worse than anticipated by the Democrats. And then on 163 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 1: top of this, the benefit of doing this was zero. Yeah, 164 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: that's the part that everyone has to The school closures 165 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 1: did not save any lives. The school closures did not 166 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 1: stop COVID, did not flatten the curve, did not protect 167 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 1: children from getting COVID. This was all a self inflicted wound, 168 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:02,200 Speaker 1: and some of us saw it, and the Democrats shouted 169 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 1: us down and stomped their feed and the teachers union 170 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:09,199 Speaker 1: thugs mobilized, and the Commissar Randy Wine Garden push for this. 171 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: They were as wrong as can be on all counts. Clay, Yeah, 172 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: and this is where we need you, moms. We talk 173 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 1: about the suburban moms and how many of you are 174 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 1: swing voters as a group. This is where we need 175 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: you to mobilize. I mean this. There need to be 176 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 1: severe consequences. These teachers unions and these Democratic politicians. They 177 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 1: made you, in addition to the fact that a lot 178 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: of you have jobs and have responsibilities that you rely 179 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 1: on school to help you. They made you wear all 180 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 1: of these hats and they told you you were doing 181 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 1: it to protect the safety of kids, and they were 182 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 1: a hundred percent wrong. What should happen when somebody gives 183 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 1: you advice on percent wrong and your children suffer as 184 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 1: a result from it. There have to be consequences, and 185 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 1: that's why moms out there, the suburban mom community in particular, 186 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 1: you guys need to be talking. You need to be 187 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 1: grabbing some of these clips from this show. You need 188 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 1: to be sharing some of these articles. You were lied to, 189 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 1: and the people who lied to you are now saying 190 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 1: things Buck, like, oh, how could we have ever known 191 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: that this was going to happen. Well, we didn't know 192 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 1: it was going to be this bad. That those are lies. 193 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 1: By the summer of twenty twenty, Buck, you and I 194 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 1: know because we were arguing this, the data was abundantly clear. 195 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 1: Kids needed to be back in school. Look at what 196 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 1: Ronda Santis did, look at what a lot of red 197 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 1: state governors did in terms of getting their kids back 198 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 1: in school in August and September of twenty twenty. And 199 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 1: if your kids were not back in school, it's because 200 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 1: Democrat politicians failed you. They didn't look at the data. 201 00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: And there have to be consequences. This is the entire 202 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 1: purpose of a democracy. We reward or punish politicians based 203 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:08,679 Speaker 1: on the judgment and the decisions that they make. And overwhelmingly, 204 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 1: blue city, blue states Democrat politicians and the teacher union 205 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 1: cronies that they worked with failed all of America's kids. 206 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 1: So can I just say that because here a point 207 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 1: about this, Clay. I. One thing I do like about 208 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: Twitter for us is that we get to create We 209 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 1: have created an archive of what we thought at different times. 210 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,560 Speaker 1: People don't have to take, you know, take our word 211 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 1: for They can go back and look it's on the end. 212 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 1: You can just google it. You don't even have to 213 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 1: be on Twitter. So I just need a check to see. 214 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 1: On August fourteenth of twenty twenty, ABC News, right big 215 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 1: important news organization, tweeted this, the US attempt to reopen 216 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:46,319 Speaker 1: schools has turned into a slow motion train wreck, with 217 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 1: at least twenty four hundred students and staff infected with COVID. 218 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 1: Nineteen twenty four hundred people got COVID. Who who cares? Cares? Right? 219 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,679 Speaker 1: It was crazy? I responded to this. I'm not an apivbiologist. 220 00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: Amount of doctorate put this out. This is less than 221 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 1: one in twenty thousand public school students in America. For 222 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,560 Speaker 1: everybody out there who isn't a lockdown hysteric, ninety nine 223 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 1: point nine nine percent of infected students will barely have 224 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 1: symptoms if any ABC News is a joke. You knew this. 225 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 1: I knew this. We were saying this summer twenty twenty. 226 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 1: Why didn't the Democrats know this? They did, They did, 227 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 1: and they should have. If they didn't, and Buck to 228 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 1: your point on the tweets that you were sending out, 229 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 1: then I don't know how I could have been any 230 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 1: more clear. I was intentionally taking pictures. People can go 231 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,840 Speaker 1: back and look in the early August of twenty twenty 232 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:37,199 Speaker 1: of my kids going to school, and look, every parent 233 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 1: knows that kids matter more than anything. So the way 234 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 1: that I would say, not only am I telling you 235 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 1: that all kids need to be back in school, I'm 236 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 1: taking my own kids to school. I'm walking them to 237 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 1: school this morning in early August in twenty twenty. Because 238 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 1: it's important for kids to be back in school. I'm 239 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 1: not just telling you this. I'm living it with my 240 00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: own life, and there need to be In last year, Buck, 241 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 1: right after we started. We're coming up on the one 242 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 1: year anniversary of Clay and Buck. We appreciate everybody listening. 243 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 1: But I went and spoke over the mask mandate, which 244 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 1: was a further failure of Democrat politicians. Mask made no 245 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 1: difference when they finally open back up schools and let 246 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 1: your kids go to school, do you know what they 247 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 1: made them do? For over a year and still in 248 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 1: some cities in America right now, kids are being forced 249 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 1: to wear masks. Do you know what the data overwhelmingly 250 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:30,920 Speaker 1: shows about kids wearing mask doesn't protect anyone, and it 251 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: leads to worse educational outcomes because kids can't communicate or understand, 252 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: particularly young kids. And so I get still so fired 253 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 1: up about this because I am still so furious that 254 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: our politicians did this to our kids. I don't know 255 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 1: when I'm ever going to get over it. But the 256 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 1: only way I think you get over a failure like 257 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: this is a reckoning of an election which is almost 258 00:14:56,640 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 1: exactly six months from now. Suburban Mom, listen to us, 259 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 1: grab this clip, share all this data, talk to your friends, 260 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 1: and make a reality of the red wave of holding 261 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 1: democrats responsible for the consequences of their actions.

People are getting complicated 264 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 1: ideas about what they should be doing and shouldn't be doing. 265 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 1: As it comes to the biggest investments in most of 266 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,760 Speaker 1: our lives, which is our homes.

And Buck, I had a little bit 297 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 1: of a data thing here that I meant to mention. 298 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 1: Yesterday we were talking about JD. Vance and the impact 299 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 1: that he had winning that hotly contested overall battle. How 300 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:18,960 Speaker 1: about turnout. Republican turnout increased by thirteen percent since the 301 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 1: twenty eight midterms in Ohio. They had Republicans did nearly 302 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:31,159 Speaker 1: seven hundred thousand more primary voters than Democrats. Why is 303 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 1: that significant? It's about enthusiasm and I know it was 304 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,920 Speaker 1: a real battle on the Republican side in the Senate, 305 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:41,360 Speaker 1: but Democrats only got thirty two percent of the overall 306 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 1: vote in Ohio. I mean, I just think about this. 307 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:47,159 Speaker 1: If someone told me, Hey, you have to go stand 308 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:50,639 Speaker 1: in voting in a voting line for six hours, but 309 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,159 Speaker 1: if you vote, you don't ever have to wear a 310 00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:57,240 Speaker 1: mask again anywhere.

At some point you feel like you're 337 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:28,160 Speaker 1: caught between Is it more that what is the bigger fraud? 338 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,120 Speaker 1: And I think you could argue this in a lot 339 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 1: of directions that Joe Biden is of sound mind as 340 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 1: a function of age and cognitive detereration to be the president. 341 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:40,160 Speaker 1: Is that the bigger fraud? That Joe Biden is an 342 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:43,359 Speaker 1: honest just you know, lives down the street, good guy, 343 00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 1: amtrak Joe. It's actually kind of a jerk, or that 344 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 1: Joe Biden is smart enough, particularly on legal issues, as 345 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 1: somebody who was a lawyer and that a senator for 346 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 1: forty years to actually have something worthwhile to say on 347 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 1: important matters of law, constitutionality, jurisprudence, you name it. I 348 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:06,960 Speaker 1: don't know which is the bigger fraud. You can argue 349 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: that in any of those realms. I think there's a 350 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 1: there's been a constant media campaign of dar I say, disinformation, Clay, 351 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 1: to try to convince people that things are true about 352 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 1: Joe Biden that are just not. And this is one 353 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:22,679 Speaker 1: of those moments where he put a whole bunch of 354 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:26,119 Speaker 1: things in together. And maybe Clay, you can give us 355 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:30,400 Speaker 1: a little bit of your legal analysis of Joe's legal analysis, 356 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 1: because I don't even think Joe knows what he was 357 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,160 Speaker 1: trying to say on this one. Here is the president 358 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:38,119 Speaker 1: on that Rov Wade league. Oh and by the way, 359 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:42,400 Speaker 1: what he calls the MAGA crowd, the idea that somehow 360 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 1: that there is no right of privacy. What happens if 361 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:50,440 Speaker 1: you have stage changed the law saying that children who 362 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 1: are LGBTQ campaign classrooms with other children? Is that legit 363 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 1: under the way the decisions written, what are the next 364 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,879 Speaker 1: things that are going to be attacked? Because this MAGA 365 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:05,000 Speaker 1: crowd is really the most extreme political organization that's existed 366 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 1: in American history. Can I just say, I mean, I 367 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 1: know that he went back said in recent history. I 368 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 1: think after that but the MAGA crowd. I guess by 369 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 1: that he means the Republican Party. He's trying to tell 370 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 1: us this is the most extreme Republican party because finally 371 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court has weighed in on what is obviously 372 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:23,680 Speaker 1: the correct constitutional and they haven't even made the decision official. 373 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 1: The pro life movement and then the Conservative platform has 374 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,160 Speaker 1: been the pro life movement for decades and decades now, 375 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 1: So there's nothing so should be surprising about this. But Clay, 376 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 1: can you explain to me what is he even taught 377 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:41,080 Speaker 1: keeping LGBTQ kids out of school? Like, what does he 378 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,640 Speaker 1: what does he think he's saying? I don't even know. 379 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 1: And this goes again to why I question his mental 380 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 1: faculties to such a degree. If he wants to fear 381 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:57,920 Speaker 1: Monger based on this opinion, that is hard because, as 382 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:03,600 Speaker 1: we said, Aldo in his opinion specifically says that he's 383 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 1: not going to go after other things. For instance, if 384 00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 1: you really wanted to Fearmonger here and maybe Joe Biden 385 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 1: will eventually Fearmonger better than he did there, you wouldn't 386 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: say gay kids are going to get pulled out of 387 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:20,359 Speaker 1: the classroom. You would say something like, oh, next they're 388 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:24,400 Speaker 1: going to take away your birth control. Something like ninety 389 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 1: percent of Americans believe that birth control is fine for 390 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,360 Speaker 1: people to use. I am one of them. Chances are 391 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: that many of you also agree with that. What is 392 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 1: clear here from Joe Biden's arguments is he hasn't read 393 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 1: the opinion himself, which is an indictment because if you're 394 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 1: going to be commenting on this, certainly as the President 395 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,120 Speaker 1: of the United States, you should read the draft opinion, 396 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 1: and his argument doesn't make any sense there. And then 397 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:57,399 Speaker 1: to go on and say that the MAGA crowd is 398 00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:00,199 Speaker 1: the most extreme in American history. Let's think for a 399 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 1: minute about some of the things that have existed political 400 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 1: party wise in American history, and also think about what 401 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:15,240 Speaker 1: the MAGA crowd believes in secure boarders, respect for police officers, 402 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:21,160 Speaker 1: putting America first, finding people with good, secure, safe jobs, 403 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 1: including people in manufacturing industries that have lost their jobs overseas, 404 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:33,679 Speaker 1: giving people the ability to put America first, raising wages, black, white, Asian, 405 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 1: Hispanic two levels that we haven't seen in modern history. 406 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:41,359 Speaker 1: Trying to call that, and I saw where he's trying 407 00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 1: to label it the ultramagas or something. They're trying to 408 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:50,639 Speaker 1: label the clear attempt here is a desperate ploy to 409 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:54,199 Speaker 1: make Donald Trump a figure in the mid term elections 410 00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 1: to drive up Democrat turnout. But here's the problem, Buck, 411 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 1: that's the exact same campaign that Terry mcculliff ran in 412 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:07,639 Speaker 1: Virginia and Glenn Younkins soundly defeated Terry mcculliff. Do you 413 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 1: remember that, Buck, We talked about this last fall when 414 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:14,400 Speaker 1: they were bringing in all the heavy hitters, Barack Obama, 415 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris. If I remember coming across the Potomac or 416 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:20,639 Speaker 1: River showing up for those rallies with Terry mccaulliffe saying 417 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:24,200 Speaker 1: how bad things would be if Republicans took back control 418 00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: of the old dominion there and they tried to make 419 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: Donald Trump a figure in that election, and you know 420 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:33,359 Speaker 1: what happened. It didn't remotely work because he wasn't on 421 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:37,320 Speaker 1: the ballot. That's now a sign of desperation six months out. 422 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,440 Speaker 1: I believe that's ultimately what Joe Biden is trying to do. 423 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 1: But he's doing it a ham handed fashion, because, let's 424 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,720 Speaker 1: be honest, he's got dementia. I was reading in that 425 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:50,159 Speaker 1: political article you and I were talking about earlier, the 426 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 1: fact that he may run in twenty twenty four. Buck, 427 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,479 Speaker 1: they said, many of the rooms they can't use at 428 00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:58,280 Speaker 1: the White House to do public events because they can't 429 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 1: fit his teleprompter in it. They can't have this man 430 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 1: in that article. I'm a guy who likes a big TV, 431 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,120 Speaker 1: I gotta say, And in New York sometimes you get 432 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:09,679 Speaker 1: that flat screen. It can be tough to get it 433 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 1: up the stairs in your walk up or whatever. But 434 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: when the teleprompter is too big for the president, that's 435 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 1: not good. I'm gonna read that quote from Politico at 436 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:19,639 Speaker 1: some point in the show, but it's talking about the 437 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,920 Speaker 1: fact that we may have a Trump Biden rematch. And 438 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:26,200 Speaker 1: to me, what Biden is trying to do is draw 439 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 1: Trump in as a figure in this election. The problem 440 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 1: is Trump's not on the ballot. That might work in 441 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,640 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, and it's certainly something that'll be much 442 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 1: debated over the next couple of years who the Republican 443 00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 1: nominee should be and whether eighty two year old Joe 444 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 1: Biden can run. But I mean, he is reading these 445 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 1: attacks off of a teleprompter, Buck, and they're still nonsensical. 446 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 1: He can't even deliver them and more important, they're just lies. 447 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,679 Speaker 1: And let's also remember not only you have you have 448 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:55,240 Speaker 1: two things that I think are a huge challenge for 449 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:58,200 Speaker 1: the Democrat brand right now because I know we're talking 450 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 1: about Biden a lot, and it's the mid terms that 451 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 1: are going to determine the House, the Senate, and in 452 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:07,360 Speaker 1: different state races. Biden's not on the ballot, but he's 453 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:09,679 Speaker 1: the leader of the Democrat Party right now. He is 454 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 1: the president. Is the Biden regime. And you look at 455 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 1: two things that are huge problem. We talk a lot 456 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,680 Speaker 1: about the results, which is the most important thing. Same way, 457 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:22,320 Speaker 1: results are the most important single part of the discussion. 458 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 1: I think about school shutdowns right because we don't have 459 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,399 Speaker 1: to get into the oh, but philosophically, no, no, you 460 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 1: guys shut down the schools. You hurt kids. And the 461 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:33,200 Speaker 1: COVID issue was irrelevant for the kids because they've either 462 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 1: got COVID elsewhere. It didn't matter the Biden administration. We 463 00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 1: look at the results, but also look at the promises. 464 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,920 Speaker 1: For a moment, you remember this clay in New York City. 465 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,440 Speaker 1: I mean it was embarrassing. I'll be honestly, it was embarrassing. 466 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,879 Speaker 1: People were driving around and it was like World War 467 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 1: When they finally announced for Biden, it was like World 468 00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:55,159 Speaker 1: War two had just ended. The a bulliance, the joy, 469 00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 1: the happiness in the streets. It was, oh my gosh, 470 00:26:57,880 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 1: you know, as though it was the end of dogs 471 00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 1: and cats living together, mass hysteria. All of a sudden, 472 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:05,199 Speaker 1: we were coming together in a way. This is the 473 00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: Democrats obviously voted for Biden, that was going to unite 474 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:12,440 Speaker 1: US as a country and normalcy return. Claim they pushed 475 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:16,679 Speaker 1: to fire huge numbers of people from their jobs for 476 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:19,159 Speaker 1: not getting a shot that most of those people didn't 477 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:25,359 Speaker 1: even need. Yes, thousands of people, tens of thousands of people, military, teachers, 478 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 1: workers in all different sorts of government jobs lost their 479 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,640 Speaker 1: employment for a shot that they didn't need it. I'm 480 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,560 Speaker 1: just saying that they promised to unite the country steady 481 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 1: hand adults in the room, competency, and so when you 482 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:45,160 Speaker 1: look at the promise and now the results, I mean, 483 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:48,879 Speaker 1: the gap is enormous, right, I mean, you know, they 484 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 1: promised me filet me and yawn and a side of 485 00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,239 Speaker 1: Vernez sauce with some asparagus. I haven't even lunch. I'm 486 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:56,160 Speaker 1: obviously hungry, by the way. That's what I'm having when 487 00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:59,159 Speaker 1: Hunter gets indicted. Oh yeah, you're gonna go with the 488 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 1: wagu they're fit se man. We'll see how it goes. 489 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 1: I think, whatever the most expensive steak version we can 490 00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:07,879 Speaker 1: find anywhere, but I like, then I'll even let you 491 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,879 Speaker 1: get the blue the blue cheese crust on top, or 492 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 1: rather I'll get it because Hunter's not getting indicted. But 493 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:15,000 Speaker 1: my point here as they showed up with a bunch 494 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:16,880 Speaker 1: of rotten eggs. Have you ever actually seen rotten eggs? 495 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:19,280 Speaker 1: That's happening once or twice? Very gross, like the actual 496 00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 1: results of administration versus what they promised.

We roll through 550 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:38,560 Speaker 1: the Thursday edition of the program, and Buck, I hate 551 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 1: to even have to say this, but even after we 552 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,320 Speaker 1: just teed off on how bad remote schooling was in 553 00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 1: the failures of blue state governors and blue state Democrat 554 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:52,960 Speaker 1: politicians and certainly their allies in the teachers unions, I 555 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 1: got a text during the last commercial break that one 556 00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 1: of my friends from law school who lives in the 557 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 1: San Francisco air her kids have to wear masks again. 558 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:06,840 Speaker 1: They brought mass back in California. I know we got 559 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 1: people listening all over the country whose kids are still 560 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 1: having to go to school in masks, and to me, 561 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 1: it just further epitomizes I thought your point was a 562 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 1: going Buck. I flew this past week. I was down 563 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 1: in Orlando with my kids, and I can't tell you 564 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 1: how much better it felt in the airport to have 565 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:27,239 Speaker 1: no one wearing a mask. Now I can't speak for 566 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:29,760 Speaker 1: what every other airport is like, but in Nashville and 567 00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 1: in Orlando, which were the airports that I traveled in, 568 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 1: nobody had masks on. I mean virtually, no ninety eight 569 00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 1: ninety nine percent no mask wearing. And to your point, Buck, 570 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,960 Speaker 1: if you had to go stand in line for six hours, 571 00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:45,440 Speaker 1: but you knew that your kids would never have to 572 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 1: wear a mask in school again, and they currently are 573 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 1: having to do so, that's a small price to pay. 574 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 1: I would sign up to do that in a heartbeat. 575 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 1: I would go stand in line for hours right now 576 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 1: if you just told me I would never have to 577 00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 1: wear a mask again. The people who can make this happened, Buck, 578 00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 1: are the suburban moms because a lot of you out there, Yes, 579 00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:06,400 Speaker 1: we want you to vote, but the people who are 580 00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:10,960 Speaker 1: swing voters turn an election from a fifty fifty proposition, 581 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:13,479 Speaker 1: which many of our elections these days are, to make 582 00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 1: it a run at sixty forty. And those suburban women 583 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 1: are the ones that can drive the bus here. And 584 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:20,880 Speaker 1: I think we got a couple of women calling in 585 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:23,160 Speaker 1: who want to talk about this, right do. We've got 586 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:30,040 Speaker 1: Kate in Cleveland, Ohio. Kate, what's on your mind? Oh, hi, Hi, 587 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:33,800 Speaker 1: Yes you're on air. I was one of those swing 588 00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:36,640 Speaker 1: voters you're talking about. I am a mom of three kids. 589 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:39,920 Speaker 1: Think thankfully we live in a conservative suburb of Cleveland. 590 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:43,640 Speaker 1: That was made evidence on our recent school board elections, 591 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:47,080 Speaker 1: which you guys talked about a lot too, and our 592 00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:49,600 Speaker 1: school board and superintendent got our kids back to school 593 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:53,240 Speaker 1: as soon as possible. But make no mistake, March twenty 594 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 1: twenty killed under that school year was miserable for our 595 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 1: children and for my husband and me. In March of 596 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,960 Speaker 1: twenty twenty, are director of the Ohio Department of Health, 597 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:05,800 Speaker 1: Factor Amy Acton, an unelected official, was given the power 598 00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:09,440 Speaker 1: to close schools, stores, and even our may elections. One 599 00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:11,560 Speaker 1: of her quotes was something along the lines of we 600 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:14,239 Speaker 1: suspect they're at least one hundred thousand people in Ohio 601 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 1: walking around with this virus and they don't even remember that. 602 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:19,719 Speaker 1: So all I could think was, well, then who cares? 603 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 1: Who on Earth cares? I can't. I still I'm so 604 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:29,240 Speaker 1: angry and I am still not recovering over this. These 605 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:33,400 Speaker 1: liberal politicians. They damaged my kids. And I will not 606 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:35,480 Speaker 1: say how old are your kids? How old are your kids? 607 00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:40,160 Speaker 1: So at that time, I had an eighth grader, a 608 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:43,439 Speaker 1: sixth grader, and eighth ar grader. Soay, so you're you're 609 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:45,880 Speaker 1: similar to the ages of my kids. And I'm curious. 610 00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:48,359 Speaker 1: When I finished the show today, I'll go pick up 611 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:51,320 Speaker 1: my first grader at school and there'll be tons of 612 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:54,040 Speaker 1: It's me and a lot of moms, oftentimes because I 613 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:56,239 Speaker 1: have a little bit of a different schedule. So and 614 00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:57,800 Speaker 1: a lot of the moms listen to the show or 615 00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:00,680 Speaker 1: they talk, and they're obviously in my neighborhoods fired up. 616 00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 1: I'm curious. You say you live in suburban Cleveland. What 617 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:06,879 Speaker 1: are the conversations like in your experience, Kate, with you 618 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:10,760 Speaker 1: and other moms. How many other swing voters are still 619 00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:12,879 Speaker 1: angry about this? What sort of vibe do you get 620 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:16,680 Speaker 1: in Ohio? I'm getting I'm well, as evidenced by j 621 00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:20,560 Speaker 1: d Vance winning here in the Yeah, I'm getting the 622 00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 1: idea that people are pretty darn angry. You know. I 623 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 1: still try to wrap my head around it, and I think, 624 00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:29,920 Speaker 1: how how could this have happened? How could you have 625 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 1: kept children out of school? Yeah? I mean, I think, 626 00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:34,839 Speaker 1: just to give you a sense, Kate, don't I don't 627 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:38,480 Speaker 1: have kids working on it. I don't have kids, and 628 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 1: if somebody if I had children though at this point, 629 00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:43,360 Speaker 1: and somebody was saying that they were going to mask 630 00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:45,800 Speaker 1: my kid up and make them eat their lunch outside, 631 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 1: I would react to that the same way that someone 632 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 1: saying in a school system, sorry, we had to just 633 00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 1: like take the paddle to your kid because he was 634 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,160 Speaker 1: late today. You know what I mean, I viewed as abuse. 635 00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,360 Speaker 1: I think Kate, thanks, thanks for the call, and I 636 00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:01,000 Speaker 1: would just say, there are millions of Kate's out there, 637 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:05,720 Speaker 1: and if you think your voice doesn't matter, you're oftentimes 638 00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:08,839 Speaker 1: one hundred billion percent wrong. And one other thing I've 639 00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:10,360 Speaker 1: seen with a lot of people buck and even the 640 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:13,440 Speaker 1: Saturday Night Live skit that we've played on here.

As 643 00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:21,759 Speaker 1: moms are talking more and more, you're finding out that 644 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 1: your voice is actually the majority, and you need to 645 00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:27,600 Speaker 1: drive this election bus.
