1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:07,320 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Third hour of Clay and Buck gets 3 00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:10,200 Speaker 1: going right now. Thanks for jumping in here, Thanks for 4 00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:13,520 Speaker 1: listening to us. Appreciate all of you across the country. 5 00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:19,040 Speaker 1: Quick update here, the Department of Justice has announced that 6 00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:22,080 Speaker 1: they have already looked at the information they seize from 7 00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:25,880 Speaker 1: our lago before they even have a coin to a 8 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: court appointed special master to go through the documents, and 9 00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,560 Speaker 1: there is some attorney client privilege material in there. This 10 00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:37,839 Speaker 1: will be ongoing. We will update you on this story, 11 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 1: and we stand ready to annihilate the ridiculous lib arguments 12 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,919 Speaker 1: about charge Trump with this bionash, but we don't want 13 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,360 Speaker 1: to spend too much time on it because we think 14 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:53,360 Speaker 1: it is a Democrat distraction at this point from the 15 00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 1: failures of governance and making this all about Trump and 16 00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 1: keeping us on the back foot. If that change is 17 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 1: obviously we will dive into this one. But yeah, oh, 18 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:08,319 Speaker 1: they also have the Director of National Intelligence, Democrat appointed, 19 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:13,960 Speaker 1: saying that they're doing a review, a review of the damage, 20 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 1: a damage assessment. I've actually been around when they've done 21 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:20,320 Speaker 1: these before, when I was in the CIA for information 22 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:23,040 Speaker 1: that has been exposed to the public. Clay you ever thought, 23 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:25,560 Speaker 1: I mean, because I can help them the damages. There's 24 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 1: no damage because unless somebody snuck into marrow Lago went 25 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 1: through thousands of pages at their leisure to find a 26 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 1: couple of dozen that might theoretically have actually really hurt 27 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 1: us national security. I doubt it, but possible. Nothing happened here, folks. 28 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,039 Speaker 1: I shared with you, Buck, and I hope I'm not 29 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 1: going to turn you into a deviant. Here the link 30 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 1: to all the gambling news on the gambling odds on 31 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 1: elections over the weekend that I kind of monitor on 32 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 1: a regular basis because it's one thing to hear people say, oh, 33 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 1: this poll came out or that poll came out, But 34 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 1: I like to see where people are actually putting their 35 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 1: money down. And I will say this, and I haven't 36 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 1: seen it written about very much since the mar Lago raid. 37 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,919 Speaker 1: The most substantial gambling impact these are people who put 38 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,359 Speaker 1: their money down market wise on what they think is 39 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 1: going to happen. Ron De Santis is twenty twenty four. 40 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 1: Presidential election odds have really improved dramatically. Trumps have not 41 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: really fallen, but a lot of people I think are 42 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:32,839 Speaker 1: looking at the mar Lago cloud and saying, hey, this 43 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: could be the opening for Ron de Santis to be 44 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 1: able to run and beat Trump in a primary. DeSantis 45 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:44,799 Speaker 1: has come out and ripped the FBI all of those decisions, 46 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 1: and certainly DeSantis has got to win an election in November. 47 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,359 Speaker 1: But buck I found that to be a little bit 48 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: intriguing in terms of kind of spinning this story forward, 49 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 1: is that while there's been an initial rush to Trump 50 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 1: for support, the dollars have actually suggested that gamblers think 51 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: it makes Ron de Santis now the presumptive favorite to 52 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 1: be elected president in twenty twenty four. Because if they 53 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 1: don't prosecute Trump, as we said in the first hour, 54 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 1: if they don't bring charges, where does this story go. 55 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,960 Speaker 1: The answer is kind of just is something that the 56 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 1: CNN audience will be told about, you know, along with 57 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 1: jan You don't see a lot about January sixth Anymoreish 58 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: vanish all the insurrection that it didn't work. It didn't work. 59 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,959 Speaker 1: You're right, So if they went to this, I don't 60 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 1: know if this works either for them. It looks like 61 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: it hasn't so far. Again, we could end up. I'm 62 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 1: one thing I always say, I mean Clay looks at 63 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 1: the betting odds to get a sense of we're sentiment 64 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: and where people are thinking things will go. Nobody can 65 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: predict the future. I don't pretend that I can predict 66 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 1: the future. We can analyze, we can look at trends. 67 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 1: But in two weeks, could we come in and you know, 68 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 1: all hell's breaking loose because they prosecute Trump. Yes, I 69 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 1: think it's highly unlikely, and we play the probabilities here 70 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 1: and try to assess where things are likely to go. 71 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 1: But it's possible absent that I think this goes away. 72 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 1: And so with that in mind, here's something that I 73 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 1: want everybody thinking about a lot more. We often hear 74 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: from Republicans far from the border, whether it's governor, senators, congressmen, congresswomen, 75 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 1: that every state is a border state. Well, that's clearly 76 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: true in a number of ways, given the wide open 77 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 1: southern border we have under the bind administration, the flooding 78 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 1: of communities across the country with the lethal and highly 79 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:37,359 Speaker 1: illegal fentanyl that has we reached all time high fentyel 80 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:39,920 Speaker 1: drug overdoses as a result of this. I mean, Clay, 81 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:42,039 Speaker 1: here's a number that we certainly don't see reported a lot, 82 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: about five million people. About five million people, according to 83 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: an immigration watchdog. This was reported on just a couple 84 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 1: of days ago, have entered the US illegally. If you 85 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 1: add in all the goataways. This is under the Biden administration. 86 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 1: If you add it all together, they say it's about 87 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: five million. Now we don't know what the you know, 88 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:08,799 Speaker 1: the official number is more. It's more like two million 89 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 1: a year have been entering. But you've definitely got millions 90 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,039 Speaker 1: of people who've entered the US illegally, underbid millions and 91 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 1: millions of them, that's for sure. The exact number. Nobody 92 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 1: will ever really know. This is affecting wages, This affects 93 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 1: public services clearly. It affects the ability of local services 94 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,039 Speaker 1: to function in places like New York and DC because 95 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: they're complaining about it, and I think that's fascinating to watch. 96 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: The CNN reporting on this over the weekend was that 97 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 1: asylum seekers arriving in New York are now being transferred 98 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 1: to homeless shelters, which is boxing out now people that 99 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 1: are the homeless populations that already exist in these cities. 100 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 1: Democrats have no interest in stopping this problem. In fact, 101 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 1: I think you could are you very convincingly. They want 102 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 1: the illegality to continue, and this affects the poorous border 103 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: and the dysfunction, the lawlessness affects wages, crime, sovereignty. The 104 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: list just goes on and on and on. You don't 105 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 1: hear Democrats talking about this at all, because Biden is 106 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: the worst president on the border we have ever seen, 107 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,839 Speaker 1: to be fair, far worse than Barack Obama actually was 108 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:28,919 Speaker 1: his immediate Democrat predecessor. Biden still hasn't been to the border. 109 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 1: He's been to the Ukraine border, but he hasn't made 110 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: it to our southern border. And Buck you mentioned New 111 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 1: York City and Eric Adams, the Murial Bowser, the Democrat 112 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 1: mayor of Washington, DC, asked for the Biden administration to 113 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: call out the National Guard so that they could handle 114 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:52,600 Speaker 1: this massive influx for them of migrants arriving in Washington, 115 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:56,160 Speaker 1: d C. And the Biden administration refused to do that 116 00:06:56,720 --> 00:07:00,719 Speaker 1: because they were worried about the political optics that might 117 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 1: occur if the National Guard was called out to deal 118 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 1: with this. This is and I believe Doug Doocey now 119 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 1: has also joined the Governor of Arizona has joined the 120 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 1: Governor of Texas Greg Abbott in making this choice. Abbott 121 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 1: is going to win comfortably in the state of Texas, 122 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: and one reason is certainly the border issues register in 123 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 1: a massive way there. Whoever gave him the advice to 124 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: do this, because initially, I think Buck, much like you, 125 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 1: I thought, oh, this feels a little bit like a stunt. 126 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 1: There's no way it's actually going to have any kind 127 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 1: of substantial impact. It didn't even take that many people 128 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 1: getting on those buses and going to New York and Washington, 129 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: d C. To throw those cities asunder in terms of 130 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 1: their ability to handle this influx such that we're now 131 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 1: talking about it and there is coverage of the border 132 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 1: issues in New York and in DC because they can't 133 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 1: avoid it, they can't hide from it. And what is 134 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 1: the Democrat plan for this? Just so everyone knows, this 135 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 1: is going to be very similar to what it was 136 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 1: under the Obama administration, which did do some There was 137 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: a time where there was left wing pushback on Obama 138 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 1: for being the quote deporter in chief because they did 139 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 1: continue some level of interior enforcement. Yeah. So we talk 140 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 1: a lot about the border, but if you speak to 141 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 1: anybody who has an understanding of what's going on with 142 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 1: immigration and customs enforcement. People aren't being deported. So not 143 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 1: only is it it's easy to get here illegally, it's 144 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 1: easier than ever to stay here illegally. And that is 145 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: likely to that is going to continue under the Biden administration. 146 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 1: We're going to get back into a discussion, depending on 147 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 1: how this goes with the Congress in the midterms, about 148 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: amnesty once again, and you're going to have them saying, oh, 149 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 1: there are eleven point eight million people in the country illegally. 150 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: They're going to tell you that even though we've had 151 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 1: about five five million enter the country illegally in the 152 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:05,440 Speaker 1: last two years, they're going to continue with the arts 153 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 1: about eleven million people. Because the real number, if you 154 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 1: speak to anybody in border patrol, anybody who's been working 155 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: on this issue day in and day out for many 156 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:18,439 Speaker 1: years now, I mean anywhere from fifteen to twenty five million, 157 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 1: tends to be the number that people who know the 158 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 1: issue will tell you. And they're gonna say, this is 159 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,079 Speaker 1: where we have to talk about comprehensive immigration form, a 160 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 1: pathway to citizenship. We think we've got electoral challenges right now, 161 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 1: just wait until the Democrats try to ram through if 162 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 1: they can, if they're in a position to the biggest 163 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 1: amnesty we've seen in this country since nineteen eighty six, 164 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,400 Speaker 1: which was actually a Reagan amnesty, which he later regretted 165 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 1: because they didn't keep up their end of the bargain 166 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 1: with enforcement, which was no surprise. Well, and this is 167 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 1: what's going to win the election for Abbot. And I'm 168 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:59,839 Speaker 1: curious with Carrie Lake in Arizona trying to succeed Do 169 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: Doucy out there, and also what is going to happen 170 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: with Blake Masters whether this is going to register with 171 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 1: Mark Kelly. I'll say this, buck, Mark Kelly is running 172 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 1: for reelection in Arizona as a US Senator. Have you 173 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: ever heard Mark Kelly say or do anything? Nothing? Nothing? 174 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 1: He might be the most empty suit senator at there. 175 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 1: I mean, just doing an interview arguing in favor or 176 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:28,200 Speaker 1: against anything. It's amazing to me how many people go 177 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:31,840 Speaker 1: into politics and then try and just hide against the 178 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 1: wall and hope no one notices them there. It feels 179 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: as if that is his entire campaign strategy. Are you 180 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 1: enough of a nerd that you are you familiar with 181 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 1: Star Trek, the Borg? You familiar with the Borg. I know, 182 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 1: star Trek. The borg is taken it into the is 183 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: taken it into the NERDDM. No, I'm not. Is there 184 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 1: somebody who does basically this? So so the borg is 185 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:58,679 Speaker 1: there's cybernetic organisms. Get a little nerdy here. Yeah, that's 186 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 1: very linked in the in the hive mind, okay, meaning 187 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 1: this so that they're all controlled sort of by one. 188 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:09,920 Speaker 1: The Democrat Party is effectively the boork. They just want 189 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:13,960 Speaker 1: people like the different functionaries within it, whether it's Biden 190 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 1: at the very top or someone like Mark Kelly, as 191 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 1: long as they have a D next to their name, 192 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,080 Speaker 1: and they will do what the hive mind of the 193 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 1: left demands. That's all. This is why I keep saying Biden. 194 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: Of course he's running for reelection because they think that 195 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 1: the Biden brand will get enough votes to win. And 196 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 1: the fact that he's a buffoon who knows nothing, shakes 197 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 1: the hand of empty air, and looks like he's in 198 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: early stages of real dementia doesn't matter to them because 199 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,680 Speaker 1: it's about the hive mind. It's not actually about individual 200 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:49,680 Speaker 1: leadership or thought. And so with someone like Senator Mark Kelly, 201 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 1: all they care about is is it a Democrat seat? 202 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 1: If it is a Democrat seat, they get Democrat votes. 203 00:11:54,880 --> 00:12:00,680 Speaker 1: The rest of it is unimportant to them. Se Biden 204 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 1: in the empty handshakes. You know, it's been over two 205 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: hundred days now since Joe Biden has set for one 206 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 1: on one interview. The one lesson we should have play 207 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:14,320 Speaker 1: is the hiding in the basement thing worked well enough 208 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 1: that he's sitting in the Oval office now. We can 209 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 1: we can complain and we have about about the the 210 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 1: shenanigans and underhandedness in the malarkey and the cheating and 211 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 1: all that, but he still ended up being the president 212 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 1: after hiding in the basement. Democrats have a massive media 213 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 1: apparatus that will carry their propaganda water for them, which 214 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 1: means that they can It's a great point you make 215 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 1: about Mark Kelly. I've never even seen a SoundBite of 216 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 1: him in the last year. I mean, he is running 217 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:44,199 Speaker 1: for reelection. Like you could agree or disagree with Warnock, 218 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:47,199 Speaker 1: He's out there talking a lot. I've seen him everywhere 219 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 1: that there are a lot of senators who you can 220 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 1: agree or disagree with, who are very public in their beliefs. 221 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 1: I haven't seen Mark Kelly doing anything. And so we 222 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 1: got a big audience out there in Arizona a shade 223 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 1: all of you listening right now. I know a lot 224 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 1: of you are deciding how exactly aggressive you're going to 225 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,679 Speaker 1: be during the campaign season. What has Mark Kelly actually 226 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:12,680 Speaker 1: done other than say, you know, I'm an astronaut and 227 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 1: sort of run his biographical arguments out there. I think 228 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:21,560 Speaker 1: it's worth considering. Look, and speaking of Joe Biden said 229 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:24,679 Speaker 1: he hadn't done an interview in two hundred days. I 230 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 1: think that's probably because Joe Biden, like much of the 231 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: Biden White House, has an incredible deficit of testosterone. There 232 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 1: are a lot of beta mails in this White House 233 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 1: right now. They can't even get Joe Biden to stay awake, 234 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 1: they can't even get him to sit for an actual interview. 235 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 1: And I gotta tell you, maybe Chalk daily could make 236 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,439 Speaker 1: a big difference for Joe Biden. Chalk makes and everyday 237 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:47,560 Speaker 1: set of supplements give you the help you need to 238 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 1: have the energy and focus you need.

So thank all of you out there. 276 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: We've been talking about this Joe Rogan Aaron Rodgers podcast interview, 277 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 1: which is so great, and I've been frustrated along Buck 278 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 1: as well with the fact that people who are furious 279 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 1: about our response to COVID are not holding Democrats accountable. 280 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 1: They actually talked about this. Listen to Joe Rogan and 281 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. No one who is alive today had ever 282 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 1: experienced a true pandemic and I'm hoping that now that 283 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:39,479 Speaker 1: this is over, people are going to, you know, recognize 284 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: that some serious errors were made and not repeat those. 285 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 1: That's the best he can get out of it. So 286 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 1: what do you tell those people vote Republican? I mean, 287 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 1: he's right, he's right. That's just that that is a 288 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 1: rational response that Libs the Democrats got it wrong. They 289 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 1: got it wrong on COVID top to bottom. They were 290 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:04,120 Speaker 1: wrong about everything. The Fauci worshippers were wrong. Biden with 291 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 1: his winner of death and pandemic of the unvaccinated and 292 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 1: fire people who don't get the COVID juice wrong, wrong, wrong, 293 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:15,360 Speaker 1: wrong about mass wrong about lockdown's, wrong about school closures, 294 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 1: wrong about social distancing, wrong about handwashing. Wrong. Does it 295 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: matter to people or not? They destroyed people's lives, They 296 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 1: destroyed businesses. They've lit trillions of dollars of wealth and 297 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 1: productivity on fire for what If there are no consequences, Buck, 298 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:39,639 Speaker 1: They'll do it again at the next possible opportunity. In 299 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,879 Speaker 1: the back of their mind after all of the failures 300 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: over the last two and a half years, we need 301 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,640 Speaker 1: them to be thinking in the years ahead, there will 302 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:52,159 Speaker 1: be electoral consequences for this. And frankly, if making the 303 00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 1: worst American public policy decision of any of our lives, 304 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 1: as Democrats did with COVID doesn't lead to electoral oblivion, 305 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,159 Speaker 1: what are we doing as a democracy. There needs to 306 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:05,640 Speaker 1: be a new term, a new phrase to describe how 307 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 1: busy you are as a business owner managing people these days. 308 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 1: Managing remote workforces, keeping up with changing regulations and HR compliance, 309 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:17,680 Speaker 1: hiring and retaining top talent, handling payroll. The list goes on. 310 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: There's a limit to what you can do to keep 311 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 1: employees engage while running your business smoothly. Fortunately, there's insparity. 312 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,760 Speaker 1: They put thirty plus years of HR experience to work 313 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:31,040 Speaker 1: to help you develop a people strategy that supports your 314 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:34,359 Speaker 1: business strategy, focusing on the health of your organization. What 315 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:37,439 Speaker 1: if your HR strategy included access to better benefits to 316 00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:40,200 Speaker 1: help you keep the employees you have and attract new ones. 317 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:42,879 Speaker 1: What if it also offered training for your employees to 318 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 1: increase their skills so they can become more productive.

Senator Blackburn, 324 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 1: appreciate you making the time for us. I'm so happy 325 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:17,439 Speaker 1: to join you all. Thank you so much. So why'd 326 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 1: you go to Taiwan and what'd you find when you 327 00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:23,960 Speaker 1: were there? Well, I went to Taiwan. It wasn't my 328 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:27,920 Speaker 1: first visit. It was a return visit, and I did 329 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 1: it because it is so important that we stand with 330 00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 1: Taiwan as they seek to preserve their freedom and push 331 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 1: back on the Chinese Communist Party. And of course we've 332 00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 1: seen the Communist Chinese really become so aggressive globally, yes, 333 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:52,440 Speaker 1: but specifically in that Indo Pacific region with those Pacific 334 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 1: island nations. So for Taiwan to know that we stand 335 00:19:56,840 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 1: with them, we support them, that we are doing our 336 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 1: part to make certain that they have what they need 337 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 1: to defend themselves, it is important. It's an important step 338 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 1: for us. And you know, the more we support Taiwan 339 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 1: and encourage our allies to support Taiwan, the harder it 340 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:20,159 Speaker 1: makes it for the Chinese Communist Party to say, oh no, 341 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:23,080 Speaker 1: they're part of us. We are going to go in 342 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: and we're going to overtake them and no one should care. 343 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:30,239 Speaker 1: Senator Blackburn, thanks for coming on. Do you think that 344 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:33,679 Speaker 1: China is going to try and invade Taiwan based on 345 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:37,160 Speaker 1: your knowledge obviously as a senator, and also the trip 346 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 1: that you just made, do you think they will do that? 347 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:45,400 Speaker 1: Certainly they want to do it. Do you think they will, Well, 348 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:47,879 Speaker 1: they want to do at Clay. They want to be 349 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,440 Speaker 1: globally dominant by the time we get to twenty fifty. 350 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 1: But the more we push you back on them and 351 00:20:55,800 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 1: encourage our allies to push back on them, to support 352 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:05,879 Speaker 1: Taiwan and Papua New Guinea the other islands where I 353 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 1: visited during this strip, the harder it makes it for 354 00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:16,200 Speaker 1: China to do that. Now, we do know that China, Russia, Iran, 355 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 1: and North Korea they comprise what I call the new 356 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 1: Axis of Evils. They're intent on taking down the US. 357 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 1: So it is something that we should keep our eye on, 358 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:33,360 Speaker 1: that we should push back and make it very very 359 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:39,119 Speaker 1: difficult for China to take these moves and for those 360 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 1: moves to be accepted by freedom loving nations. Centator Blackburn, 361 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,439 Speaker 1: do you think that there should be an official shift 362 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,679 Speaker 1: away from what has been the US policy with regard 363 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:55,119 Speaker 1: to Taiwana of strategic ambiguity. Essentially, should we have a 364 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,119 Speaker 1: more ironclad promise to them or do you think the 365 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:03,600 Speaker 1: current situation, the status quo is the better option. I 366 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 1: think it is certainly something that we should discuss, and 367 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 1: I would encourage people to recognize Taiwan as separate. You 368 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 1: have to look at the fact they have a founding father, 369 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,120 Speaker 1: they have an independent say, they have a constitution, they 370 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:23,439 Speaker 1: have a president, they have a military, and all of 371 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 1: this we recognize. Think about it like this, the USSR 372 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:32,439 Speaker 1: breaks up, so countries declare their independence. To do we 373 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:38,679 Speaker 1: recognize those countries? Absolutely we do, and we applaud those countries. 374 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:42,880 Speaker 1: And in Taiwan, they would like for us to recognize 375 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 1: them and applaud them. And it's appropriate to go back 376 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 1: and look at the steps that Richard Nixon took, that 377 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:58,520 Speaker 1: President Carter took and bring this back up for review. Senator, 378 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 1: We're in a fifty fifty Senate right now. We're a 379 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: little bit over two months out from the mid terms. 380 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,440 Speaker 1: There's a lot of battleground states out there. There are 381 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:09,879 Speaker 1: many people listening to us right now in those battleground states. 382 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:13,920 Speaker 1: As a senator, how much different is there for you 383 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:18,880 Speaker 1: if it's a fifty one forty nine Republican majority versus 384 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,679 Speaker 1: the Democrats having any kind of majority at all. We 385 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 1: know Kamala breaks the tie fifty fifty, but in terms 386 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:28,239 Speaker 1: of what you guys are capable of, what does that 387 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 1: majority mean? Oh, that majority means so much because who 388 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:36,959 Speaker 1: never has a majority in the Senate. That's the agenda. 389 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:40,680 Speaker 1: And having that majority means that we can stop that 390 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 1: are judges that are not appropriate for the bench, that 391 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 1: do not have the background or the expertise. We can 392 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 1: put a halt to some of those nominations that are 393 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:58,679 Speaker 1: just not appropriate. We can also begin to work to 394 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:02,880 Speaker 1: get inflation under controle because we would be able to 395 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:07,399 Speaker 1: control the budget with a Republican held House and Senate. 396 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:11,400 Speaker 1: That would help to curtel some of this federal spending. 397 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 1: I think we should put a high freeze on hiring 398 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 1: new federal employees, a freeze on federal salaries. We should 399 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:25,680 Speaker 1: began to work to reign in this bureaucracy, keep them 400 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:31,119 Speaker 1: from hiring eighty seven thousand IRS agents to go after 401 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 1: small and mid sized businesses in this country, Center blackber 402 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 1: Is it a little bit of a shock to you 403 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:42,359 Speaker 1: when you see the current president, Joe Biden going around 404 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:47,639 Speaker 1: referring to Trump voters as semi fascists and openly stating 405 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:54,479 Speaker 1: that he has no respect for Maga Republicans. They're so 406 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:57,920 Speaker 1: disappointing to hear someone that's the president of the United 407 00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 1: States use that language. And I know he feels like 408 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 1: it is political free speech and he can do it. 409 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:12,880 Speaker 1: It is just inappropriate. The President of the United States 410 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:19,040 Speaker 1: is there for everyone. When your intellective office, you represent everyone, 411 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:26,639 Speaker 1: Democrat and Republican, independent, Green, Party of whatever. And for 412 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 1: him to hold that disdain when he said his step 413 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 1: was going to be to seek to reunite people in 414 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 1: the country makes you wonder if the speech was platitudes 415 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:44,240 Speaker 1: written for him that he did not mean, or if 416 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 1: he has changed his opinion. Senator, do you think that 417 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:52,959 Speaker 1: the Biden Justice Department is going to charge Donald Trump 418 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:56,640 Speaker 1: with a crime based on their Morilago rate? And if so, 419 00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:01,920 Speaker 1: what do you think would happen. I have no idea 420 00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:05,840 Speaker 1: what they're going to do. If this is just political posturing. 421 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,640 Speaker 1: What I do know is this is unprecedented This has 422 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:13,120 Speaker 1: never happened to a former president. I do know that 423 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 1: they seemed very unconcerned about Hillary Clinton's laptop with thirty 424 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:23,639 Speaker 1: thousand emails, or her staff members with their devices that 425 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:30,960 Speaker 1: also contained those confidential top secrets emails and transmissions. I 426 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 1: know that they were not that concerned about her using 427 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:39,200 Speaker 1: bleach bit or about staff members taking a hammer to 428 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 1: their devices. They weren't concerned about Hunter Biden. We even 429 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 1: find out now the FBI went to Facebook and I 430 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:50,080 Speaker 1: would say probably likely others, and said, hey, beware about this. 431 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:52,919 Speaker 1: We're not sure about this. You might not want to 432 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,600 Speaker 1: put this up, might not want to get that out there. 433 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 1: And we do know that had affected the way people 434 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:03,639 Speaker 1: viewed a Biden family and the way they ultimately voted YEA. 435 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 1: So we have to be aware of those things. Senator 436 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,640 Speaker 1: Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee always appreciate you joining us. Thanks 437 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 1: so much, you got it.

Welcome back in Clay 470 00:28:56,240 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 1: Travis Buck Sexton show in the Cots The Quest to 471 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 1: Redefine Words. We're gonna take a couple of your calls 472 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 1: here in a moment close out the show. But I 473 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 1: thought you guys would appreciate this. The left wing in 474 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 1: this country has gone to war with the term breastfeeding. Now, Buck, 475 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 1: we have to call it chest feeding. This is not 476 00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:20,120 Speaker 1: made up. Listen to being more inclusive. I'm working on 477 00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 1: saying chest feeding instead of breastfeeding, chess feeding, chess feeding, 478 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,720 Speaker 1: chess feeding, chest feeding, est feeding chess feeding. Chest feeding 479 00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 1: is just inclusive. There are non binary people. There are 480 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 1: trans men who lactate. There are those who go by 481 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 1: he him, different pronouns. There are also a lot of 482 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 1: trans men who have fed a baby with their because 483 00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 1: they were still attached. Not everyone that chess feeds are 484 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:44,960 Speaker 1: body feeds and then fights. As a woman, I try 485 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 1: to be respectful and inclusive of everybody's identities in preferences. 486 00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: I will go back and forth between saying breastfeeding mother 487 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 1: or lactating parent, or chest feeding. I call it chess 488 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:57,600 Speaker 1: feeding because I know that not everybody who feeds from 489 00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:05,120 Speaker 1: their body has breast. Hold on, hold on, I need 490 00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 1: to understay this. I'm pretty sure that men can't lactate, 491 00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:13,000 Speaker 1: despite what we may see. Do we have to meet 492 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 1: the parents line? Can you milk me? Do you remember? 493 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 1: Can you milk me? Great? Yeah, of course? Um right. 494 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,200 Speaker 1: I mean, isn't this Am I missing something? I mean, 495 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:25,000 Speaker 1: if you are feeding from your chest, it must be 496 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 1: from a breast. Even if you are I'm sure someone's 497 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:31,840 Speaker 1: gonna say, oh, but there was you know, one time 498 00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:35,400 Speaker 1: in history or something. I mean, but am I missing something? 499 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:40,200 Speaker 1: I'm no. I don't understand how men can lactate, even 500 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 1: if they have their own show or whatever at CNN. 501 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 1: I don't think it's possible. I think I think this 502 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 1: is the same people who would say, men can get pregnant. 503 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 1: So I'm guessing that chest feeding is because these men, 504 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:59,000 Speaker 1: sorry women who have decided to identify as men and 505 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:02,240 Speaker 1: are still having base babies are saying, oh, I'm feeding 506 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 1: from my chest, not my breast because I'm a man. Now. Wow, 507 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:08,959 Speaker 1: that's the only way that I can think about how 508 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 1: it can make sense. So it's a biological female that 509 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 1: is breastfeeding, but is telling us all to say that 510 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 1: it is chest chest feeding because the trans ideology as 511 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 1: such that it is no longer actually a female breast 512 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:30,120 Speaker 1: that is lactating, but a male breast because or male 513 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 1: chest because they say, so that's where this is. Because 514 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 1: I was legitimately confused for I was like, wait, how 515 00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 1: is this supposed to work? I think that's the only 516 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 1: way that it could possibly work. I think it's the 517 00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 1: the girl who now considers herself to be a boy 518 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:51,600 Speaker 1: but has had a baby and is now feeding from 519 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:57,120 Speaker 1: the chest. This is also wild to even think about 520 00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 1: that we are even having conversations on this level. If 521 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 1: you can feed a baby from your nipple, you are 522 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:09,960 Speaker 1: a woman? Can we is there? Like? Is that not 523 00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:14,200 Speaker 1: a pretty definitive statement? Like if you can birthday child 524 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 1: you are a woman. If you can feed a woman 525 00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:21,760 Speaker 1: from a baby from your nipple, you are a You're 526 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:25,720 Speaker 1: a woman. I'm assuming they don't have like lactation, gland 527 00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:29,760 Speaker 1: transfer or anything like that. That's not a thing, right. 528 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 1: Remember we had doctor McCarry on. He said that at 529 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:33,600 Speaker 1: some point in the future they may be able to 530 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:36,479 Speaker 1: insert female parts into a male to have a baby. 531 00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:40,480 Speaker 1: So i'm i'm i'm even if you get a breast removal, 532 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 1: I would guess buck, you still have the same pipes, 533 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:46,280 Speaker 1: for lack of a better way of describing it, that 534 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 1: would allow you to lactate. I guess right. I am 535 00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 1: not a lactation expert. That's the only way I can 536 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 1: even think of that. Chess feeding could make sense. Maybe, 537 00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:59,760 Speaker 1: Ed and Prescott Arizona, are you a breastfeeding expert? Ed? 538 00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 1: Not even going to go there. It's probably a good 539 00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 1: probably a good move on your part. What have you 540 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:10,560 Speaker 1: got for us? You're out in Arizona and you say 541 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:13,600 Speaker 1: that Mark Kelly, who has not managed me a senator 542 00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:15,600 Speaker 1: for several years, and nobody's ever heard of him saying 543 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 1: or doing anything. What's his what's his campaign pledge? Now? Well, 544 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 1: now you're hearing, uh he sends out these uh, these 545 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 1: ads he runs on TV, and all he's talking about 546 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:29,400 Speaker 1: is how inflation is not the Biden administration's fault, and 547 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 1: whose fault isn't from whose fault is it? By the way, 548 00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:36,239 Speaker 1: if it's not the Biden administrations exactly, Yeah, I'm just 549 00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:40,240 Speaker 1: curious who they're blaming. Well, they're blaming you know, the 550 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:43,440 Speaker 1: Warren in the Ukraine. So and then he runs these 551 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:46,440 Speaker 1: ads about gas prices and he's saying that it's the 552 00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 1: retailer's fault because they're price gouging the customers, and he's 553 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:52,640 Speaker 1: going to do something about it. That we've made this 554 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 1: clear for thanks for the call. The average gas station 555 00:33:56,880 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 1: makes around two or three cents per gallon of gas 556 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 1: that they sell. They make their money based on you 557 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 1: going inside and buying something in the convenience store, so 558 00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:10,759 Speaker 1: they cannot gas gouge. And anybody who's ever driven down 559 00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:13,520 Speaker 1: the street, do you think that they're colluding with every 560 00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 1: other gas station to charge roughly the same price as No, 561 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 1: it's because they're paying a wholesale pretty much the same 562 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:24,120 Speaker 1: prices no matter what in geographic regions. So Clay, I 563 00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:27,319 Speaker 1: just now Wikipedia is overrunbund I can't. I can't believe 564 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:28,799 Speaker 1: you were even willing to look up what I think 565 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 1: you were willing to look up. Yeah, I just want 566 00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:34,680 Speaker 1: to make sure. Yeah, there's a Wikipedia here, so check 567 00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:39,319 Speaker 1: the source. Male lactation is possible. It was of some 568 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:45,520 Speaker 1: interest to Alexander von Humboldt, who reports in a whole 569 00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:49,440 Speaker 1: bunch of it's a whole bunch of French words that 570 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:52,720 Speaker 1: a guy nurtured his son when his wife was ill. 571 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:59,200 Speaker 1: Who and then also Charles Darwin. Apparently they're saying that 572 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:04,800 Speaker 1: there is male lactation. I don't. I had never, I 573 00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 1: had never heard of this before. I don't want to 574 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 1: call out Darwin rest in peace, but I think you know, 575 00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:12,560 Speaker 1: he had some good had some good theories out there. 576 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 1: But I think the Darwin may have jumped the proverbial shark. 577 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:18,800 Speaker 1: It is also fascinating that libs will always they'll always 578 00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:23,239 Speaker 1: go back to Darwin, who didn't know what microbiology or 579 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:27,160 Speaker 1: DNA or mitochondria or any of those things was. But 580 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:30,040 Speaker 1: he has all the answers. Darwin has all the answers. 581 00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,600 Speaker 1: I just I've lived my whole life and I've never 582 00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:35,239 Speaker 1: seen a man breastfeeding. Maybe it happens all the time 583 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 1: and I just missed it. I you know, yes, I 584 00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:40,840 Speaker 1: think I think that that is a that is a 585 00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:43,719 Speaker 1: true thing. I mean it also generally we think that 586 00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 1: a human being has one heart per human but I 587 00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:53,000 Speaker 1: think also there are like one in a billion conjoined twins, 588 00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:55,239 Speaker 1: for example, which used to be called something else. But 589 00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:57,799 Speaker 1: we can't say that anymore. Sime's twins is offensive. I'll 590 00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:01,399 Speaker 1: say it is that really offensive? Now? I mean, if 591 00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:04,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get you play on the radio show, I 592 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:07,080 Speaker 1: say that the thing that is like supposed to be 593 00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:08,879 Speaker 1: sitting now and clays like, oh the other thing, I'll 594 00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:11,440 Speaker 1: say I didn't even know Simey's twins. I found out 595 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:15,799 Speaker 1: Eskimo you can't say anymore. Yeah, there are Eskimos. There's 596 00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:19,600 Speaker 1: also Inuit, though, an Alude and these other tribes. So 597 00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:21,800 Speaker 1: that's just feeding. Evidently, I'm not gonna be able to 598 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:24,080 Speaker 1: say breastfeeding anymore. I can't people keep up with all that. 599 00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:27,640 Speaker 1: We need a fact check though. Is mail actation really 600 00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 1: a thing? I'm gonna have to talk to some hashtag 601 00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:32,640 Speaker 1: science about this because I think it's very getting Maybe 602 00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:34,799 Speaker 1: Faucci will come on and talk to us about chess 603 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:40,000 Speaker 1: feeding let me tell you, sometimes, when Mother Nature decides 604 00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:44,719 Speaker 1: it is necessary for chest feeding, we could see it. Right. 605 00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:47,480 Speaker 1: I think I think Faucci could breastfeed. I mean, if 606 00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:48,960 Speaker 1: I had to pick a guy right now who was 607 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,960 Speaker 1: most likely to breastfeed, might be Fauci. Be honest that 608 00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 1: he
