Speaker 2: fallout of the Charlie Kirk assassination continues. We're going to

21

Speaker 2: give you the absolutely on that will also continue to

22
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 2: take your calls and talkbacks. Senator Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee

23
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 2: is going to join us in the third hour as

24
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,760
Speaker 2: Trump has announced that he is calling the National Guard

25
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 2: out for Memphis, Tennessee, which is, according to a lot

26
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,760
Speaker 2: of data sets out there, the most violent city in

27
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 2: America on a per capita basis.

28
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 1: We will talk about that, but Buck, I would say this.

29
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 2: I was in Knoxville, Tennessee for the Georgia Tennessee football game,

30
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:36,679
Speaker 2: which is a great game until Tennessee shank the kick

31
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:41,479
Speaker 2: to lose. Governor Brian Camp immediately texted me right after.

32
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,039
Speaker 2: He was like, boy, Greg, he's a huge Georgia Bulldog fan.

33
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 2: Great game. It's like, thanks, Governor, I'm a big Tennessee fan.

34
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 2: But people came up to me, Buck. Everybody who came

35
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 2: up to me wanted to talk about Charlie Kirk. No,

36
00:01:56,240 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 2: I mean at the game. At the game where ninety

37
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 2: nine point nine percent of the time when I'm at

38
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 2: a football game, people want to almost exclusively talk about sports.

39
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 2: Everybody who came up to me wanted to talk about

40
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk and the impact that he had had on

41
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 2: their life. And what I think is the continued fallout

42
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 2: of I have to be honest with.

43
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 1: You, Buck.

44
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 2: I knew that there would be a segment because there

45
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 2: always is on social media of people that are awful

46
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 2: and react to tragedy by celebrating and marinating in the awfulness.

47
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 2: I'm still stunned about the extent of the celebratory reaction

48
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 2: to his assassination, and I didn't have high expectations for

49
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 2: how the left would respond. But when I see the

50
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 2: number of people who are teachers talking about, you know,

51
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 2: not university professors, certainly a lot of university professors, which

52
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 2: I'm less surprised by because we've kind of seen this

53
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 2: a lot.

54
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 3: District attorneys, pediatric nurses. You know what this is showing

55
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 3: you everybody in every profession out there is possibly an

56
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,200
Speaker 3: anti Charlie kirk loon. Like you can't say, oh, well,

57
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 3: this person operates in the real world, so they they

58
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 3: would never I can trust my doctor, I could trust

59
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:20,120
Speaker 3: my next door neighbor. No, you don't know until you

60
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:24,840
Speaker 3: know whether somebody has failed this most basic test of morality.

61
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 3: I think that's what's So it's one thing, Clay to

62
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 3: see the usual imbeciles in the media, and they're all

63
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 3: they're all losing ground, they're all losing relevance that that's

64
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 3: been going on, So it's not surprising It's still grotesque,

65
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 3: but not surprising for them. What I think, though, is

66
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 3: such a shock to people is the the widespread nature

67
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 3: of this, that there are so many people out there

68
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 3: who are just like everyday people, that's what they're just

69
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 3: you know. It could be could be a homemaker, could

70
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,400
Speaker 3: be somebody who runs a local hardware store, and they're

71
00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 3: saying absolutely insane things in response to the assassination of

72
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 3: Charlie Kirk, who was, as we've talked about, not just

73
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 3: a political and social phenomenon, but a dad, a husband,

74
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 3: a son, somebody who was incredibly decent and kind to people.

75
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 3: So that I think has been something of an awakening.

76
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,119
Speaker 3: It does remind me Clay a little bit of after

77
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 3: nine to eleven there I did just from my own

78
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,919
Speaker 3: political awakening and why I decided, like why do I

79
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,279
Speaker 3: go in the CIA and not go into Wall Street

80
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,039
Speaker 3: like all my peers did. And it was in part

81
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 3: because after nine to eleven, one we had been attacked,

82
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,360
Speaker 3: but two I had a recognition that there were a

83
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,559
Speaker 3: lot of people around the world and here at home

84
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,159
Speaker 3: who after nine to eleven their attitude was we got

85
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,160
Speaker 3: what was coming to us, Yeah, we deserved it, or

86
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 3: there even should be. If you're talking about globally, there

87
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 3: should be more of it. And so there was a call,

88
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 3: a literal call to arms, for so many of us

89
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 3: to go and fight. I think this is for conservatives

90
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 3: here at home. This is also turning into a moment

91
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 3: of clarity that we won't be able to shake.

92
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:08,360
Speaker 4: Now.

93
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 3: It's a clarion call in some ways. Right, It's like

94
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 3: we're all now recognizing you mentioned this. Clay, I just had.

95
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,120
Speaker 3: I went across the street. We're Clay and I here

96
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 3: in New York, went across the street to get a coffee,

97
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 3: and someone came up to me and said, I love

98
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 3: what you guys are doing. And he said, I'm so

99
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 3: sad about Charlie, and he said, you need to keep

100
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 3: doing what you're doing. Yes, Charlie would want that. That's

101
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 3: part of That's part of what I'm hearing from everybody too.

102
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 3: He was our he was our friend, but he was

103
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 3: also our perod. We were on the same team. What

104
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 3: we wanted for the country is what Charlie wanted for

105
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 3: the country. And so I'm hearing that for from a

106
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 3: lot of people as they come up to me. But

107
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 3: we have to understand the reality of the opposition and

108
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 3: where they are on these things, and the lack of

109
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 3: decency and the lack of basic morality, and we have

110
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 3: to confront this.

111
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 1: One hundred percent. All of that is true.

112
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:01,280
Speaker 2: It's also important, and we're going to do our absolute

113
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,040
Speaker 2: best to keep you updated on all of the details.

114
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 2: I'm sure you saw they have put. I think they

115
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:14,480
Speaker 2: recognize on the left that a lot of normal people,

116
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,840
Speaker 2: let's leave aside the crazy celebrations. I think a lot

117
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:21,039
Speaker 2: of normal people who are apolitical. The idea that you

118
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:24,359
Speaker 2: would celebrate a dad getting assassinated at a free speech event,

119
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:29,039
Speaker 2: it does turn off huge segments of let's call just

120
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 2: the normal people in America who aren't paying attention to

121
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,719
Speaker 2: politics on a daily basis. But just say, my god,

122
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 2: you're celebrating pure evil. Whatever you think about Charlie, he's

123
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 2: got a three year old, he's got a one year old,

124
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 2: he's got a widow. Now, the idea that anybody would

125
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,719
Speaker 2: celebrate any dad's death, ever, I think for both of

126
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 2: us as dads, is just awful. I mean, just leave

127
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 2: aside all of the rest of it. They recognize. I

128
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,280
Speaker 2: think there's a recognition on some elements of the left

129
00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 2: that they that they can't turn off the crazy party,

130
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,840
Speaker 2: and so they have tried to argue and I think

131
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 2: we should dive into some of this. Oh, this guy

132
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 2: was actually a right winger, and they have probably have

133
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:11,640
Speaker 2: heard some of this, and I think we need to

134
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:16,239
Speaker 2: address this in detail because there is a concerted effort

135
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 2: to just long write the history and hide the motivation

136
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 2: of this killer of this thing.

137
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 3: A big thing that we haven't gotten to. A big

138
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 3: reveal from over the weekend is that it has been

139
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 3: reported from multiple sources and confirmed from high up that

140
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 3: the shooter, the assassin was in a romantic relationship with

141
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 3: a transitioning as in a trans individual. Now that trans

142
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 3: individual is cooperating with the FBI at last reporting. But

143
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 3: that I think goes to ideology, It goes to motive,

144
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 3: It goes to an understanding of this guy. This guy

145
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 3: was in a relationship with a trans person, I mean

146
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 3: physical like a romantic relationship with a transperson. And the

147
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 3: more you dig into the ideology, the more this aligns

148
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 3: with you know he is he was not trans. But

149
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,600
Speaker 3: the single clay this goes back for a long time.

150
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 3: I was told by one of the National Review guys

151
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 3: I won't say who, it was. But you know, I

152
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,120
Speaker 3: actually like a lot of those guys. I know some

153
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 3: of them have gone very little anti Trump, but some

154
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 3: of them are very good dudes. But I was told

155
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:18,400
Speaker 3: by one of them a long time ago, I'm talking

156
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 3: a decade ago, that he was he'd been writing for

157
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 3: dec he himself and working in this politics commentary for decades,

158
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 3: said he was shocked at how he got more death

159
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 3: threats writing about the trans issue than anything, yes, than

160
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 3: cops and race issues and abortion, and the trans issue

161
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 3: was the thing that got And this was going back

162
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,440
Speaker 3: now many years. This was like Obama administration era, and

163
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,960
Speaker 3: I never forgot that. And we're seeing now if you're

164
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,959
Speaker 3: looking for left wing radicalism, if you're looking for what

165
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 3: is the center of that, of that that challenged that problem,

166
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 3: that that you know, dragon that must be dealt with here,

167
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 3: it is the trans issue. And at a lesser level,

168
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:06,200
Speaker 3: I think some of the cop and race stuff that

169
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 3: comes up, but those are the two that will get

170
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:11,080
Speaker 3: you people on the left who will go the most violent,

171
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,680
Speaker 3: the fastest. Isn't also from other climate change, which they

172
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 3: told us was an existential threat. No one even thinks

173
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 3: about this anymore. Yeah, My point is that they shift

174
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,760
Speaker 3: from one delusion to another, and this is the delusion

175
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:25,680
Speaker 3: of the moment that they will become violent over There.

176
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,840
Speaker 2: Are a lot of evidence points out there, and again

177
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 2: the FBI is in the process of going through this

178
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:38,960
Speaker 2: that suggests that multiple members of the trans community were

179
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 2: posting that Charlie was going to get killed at this

180
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 2: location at this.

181
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 1: Point in time.

182
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 2: Now, how often does that happen? I think it's fair

183
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 2: to say, is this occurring when they're regularly In other words,

184
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,319
Speaker 2: are there lots of people when he's speaking at ex

185
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:58,320
Speaker 2: University that are going on social media and saying, well,

186
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 2: something's going to happen there, that's fair to say. But

187
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 2: these posts were up that are saying something is happening,

188
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 2: He's going to get killed at this location. And the

189
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 2: FBI is now investigating whether this may have been a

190
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,959
Speaker 2: part of a larger plan. Again, remember he was shot

191
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,559
Speaker 2: as the question was being asked about.

192
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:20,640
Speaker 3: Felt very I mean, the timing of it felt way too,

193
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 3: way too big a coincidence for it to actually be

194
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:25,920
Speaker 3: a coincidence. And we're certainly I know that was asked

195
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:30,079
Speaker 3: of Deputy Bongino on Fox this morning and he said,

196
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,600
Speaker 3: we're you know, he all he can say, and he's right,

197
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,320
Speaker 3: is we're looking at it. We're looking at everything, and

198
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:39,319
Speaker 3: that is what they're doing right now. But this is clay.

199
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,840
Speaker 3: I mean, I can tell you when I was in

200
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 3: the NYPD Intelligence Division, I would say ninety five, which

201
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,199
Speaker 3: is counter terrorism, and they've changed the terms and now

202
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 3: it's bureau. But put all that aside, ninety five ninety

203
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 3: eight percent. I want to say one hundred percent, but

204
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 3: I just don't want to be a You know that

205
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,760
Speaker 3: that definitive was jihadis terrorism. That's what we're working on.

206
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 3: But you know that they had just to just to

207
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:04,080
Speaker 3: be fair, just to make sure that everyone knew that

208
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:07,679
Speaker 3: they were. They had a white supremacist cell there, you know,

209
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:09,959
Speaker 3: group that looked at them. They were very bored and

210
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:11,920
Speaker 3: had almost nothing to do. Would always help us with

211
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 3: our work, but they did assign people. Now they also

212
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 3: had people looking to be fair at ANTIFUSS stuff too,

213
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,720
Speaker 3: because they had already started to become a violent group.

214
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:24,760
Speaker 3: But I'm saying, as somebody who's worked in counter terrorism,

215
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 3: how let me let me pose this question, which I'm

216
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 3: obviously leading to an answer here. How many mass casualty

217
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:36,959
Speaker 3: ideologically based attacks do we have to have before there

218
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 3: is an understanding and a treatment of this issue as

219
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:44,680
Speaker 3: systemic as in trans terrorism is a threat that the

220
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,240
Speaker 3: country must deal with the face.

221
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 1: Now, I think we're past that point that far exactly

222
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:49,640
Speaker 1: where you're.

223
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 3: Going, exactly every the FBI. This needs to be treated

224
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 3: like a task force. This needs to be treated like

225
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:58,160
Speaker 3: the with the urgency that it should have. And you know,

226
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 3: we're going to have all the same, all the civil

227
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:01,960
Speaker 3: rights and they're gonna say, you're looking at this community.

228
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,200
Speaker 3: You know, we went through this with the jihatas stuff

229
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,200
Speaker 3: We've gone through and they tried to go through this

230
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 3: with Trump voters and January sixth, right, they used the

231
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 3: counter terrorism apparatus against non violent grandmas who walked into

232
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:16,720
Speaker 3: a building that they were waved into. Because we saw

233
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:18,440
Speaker 3: the video. I know there were some people who are

234
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:20,440
Speaker 3: violent with cops. A lot of people are violent with

235
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,120
Speaker 3: cops and don't even spend a single day in jail

236
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:23,719
Speaker 3: as long as they're Democrats.

237
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: Including the entire BLM era.

238
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 3: All of it, right, But we are at a point now,

239
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 3: and this is why this is an ideological challenge for

240
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 3: the country. We can't go past this. And I think

241
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:39,960
Speaker 3: that's what the assassination of our friend Charlie Kirk has

242
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 3: made it inescapable for anyone who is paying attention. We

243
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 3: have a real challenge here. It is widespread. This is

244
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,960
Speaker 3: the same thing played with with jihadist ideology. There were

245
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 3: the suicide bombers, but then there were the facilitators, and

246
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:58,360
Speaker 3: then there were the spiritual sanctioners, and then there were

247
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 3: the you know, you go through these centric circles of

248
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 3: who is involved and who is pushing what and how

249
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 3: are they a part of this movement? Go on discord,

250
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,240
Speaker 3: go online. You'll see a lot of people that are

251
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 3: saying this stuff red and Blue Sky is crazy, is insane?

252
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 3: Blue Sky. The night of Charlie's assassination, I was on it.

253
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 3: It was the most horrifying thing I've ever read in

254
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:20,719
Speaker 3: my life. Honestly, it was completely insane. And now we're

255
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 3: going to get into this First Amendment debate, right they're

256
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:24,719
Speaker 3: going to say what's allowed, what's not well, incitement to

257
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:28,480
Speaker 3: violence is not allowed, material support to terrorism is not allowed.

258
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 3: We need to start looking at this issue with the

259
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:33,840
Speaker 3: same kind of focus that has been used at other

260
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 3: times when we faced an ideological threat, and that is

261
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,079
Speaker 3: what we are under right now as a country, and

262
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 3: that is just the truth. And I'll debate that issue

263
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 3: with anybody.

264
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,079
Speaker 1: Who wants to debate it, no doubt.

265
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:48,760
Speaker 3: Look today, among all the news, there's a quiet struggle

266
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 3: going on in the minds of thousands of women nationwide

267
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:55,079
Speaker 3: what to do with an unplanned pregnancy. They've got options,

268
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,440
Speaker 3: but a lot of the time they're being pushed toward abortion.

269
00:13:57,559 --> 00:13:58,880
Speaker 3: This is where Preborn comes in.

270
00:13:58,920 --> 00:13:59,079
Speaker 5: Now.

271
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:02,400
Speaker 3: As you all know, Charlie was a huge, huge advocate

272
00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 3: for this organization, Preborn. He was the keynote speaker at

273
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,719
Speaker 3: their fundraisers. I know that Charlie was very proud to

274
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,560
Speaker 3: be affiliated with them, and we are too. Preborn is

275
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:15,840
Speaker 3: saving lives every day because instead of just allowing women

276
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,960
Speaker 3: to be pushed by the massive abortion industry toward abortion,

277
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 3: Preborn steps in and says, hey, hold on a second,

278
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 3: let's give you a free ultrasound, and let's just talk

279
00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 3: about the life that's growing in your womb. Let's bring

280
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 3: this baby into the world, and we, meaning Preborn, will

281
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:31,800
Speaker 3: support you, will help you. Now, I know a lot

282
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 3: of you've got stuff going on in your own lives

283
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,000
Speaker 3: and you're busy. Preborn is there to do this work

284
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,520
Speaker 3: for you. So if you're pro life, they're stepping in

285
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 3: and they're filling that void and they're trying to save lives.

286
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 3: They need your support. Though you don't have to run

287
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 3: the clinics, but you can support the clinics. Over three

288
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 3: hundred and fifty thousand babies have been saved through Preborn's

289
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 3: life giving work. For just twenty eight dollars a month,

290
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 3: you can save a life. That's the price of an

291
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 3: ultrasound twenty eight dollars a month. Dial pound two fifty

292
00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 3: and say the keyword baby. That's pound two five zero.

293
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 3: Say the word baby. Or go to preborn dot com,

Speaker 1: A lot of you.

300
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 2: Weighing in on a variety of different angles relating to

301
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,360
Speaker 2: the Charlie Kirk story. We're gonna get into this probably

302
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,880
Speaker 2: next hour, Buck, and we'll take some of your talkbacks

303
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 2: right now. But I think it's incredibly important for all

304
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,480
Speaker 2: of you to know that there are there is a

305
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 2: calculated decision made to try and make it seem And

306
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 2: I know this is gonna sound crazy to a lot

307
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 2: of you, but I think it's important. You know, I

308
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,840
Speaker 2: like I say, I read the New York Times and

309
00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:00,080
Speaker 2: all the crazy left wing talks, so you don't have

310
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 2: to do you me watching Morning Joe, it's like Buck

311
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:05,080
Speaker 2: watching Morning Joe. We try to make you aware of

312
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 2: what everybody is saying across the political spectrum. Over the weekend,

313
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 2: there was a calculated attempt to try to make this

314
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 2: assassin seem like he was a Trump supporting right winger.

315
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:24,760
Speaker 2: I even saw a prominent left wing accounts Buck trying

316
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 2: to say Charlie Kirk was killed because he wasn't right

317
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 2: wing enough. That was one of the arguments they were

318
00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 2: trying to make. Now it is collapsing because there is

319
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 2: no evidence to support that. But if you have left

320
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:45,360
Speaker 2: wing friends, they may be marinating in this universe where

321
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 2: they're claiming that this violence came from the right.

322
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 1: It did not. Okay, this guy.

323
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 2: Just to kind of lay out a couple of facts,

324
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 2: this guy had a family that tended to be conservative,

325
00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 2: that is true. He went off to college and seems

326
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 2: to have lost his mind. He was a smart kid,

327
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 2: thirty four on the ACT. I was reading about him.

328
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:09,920
Speaker 2: Four point zero GPA. What's a thirty four in the

329
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:12,399
Speaker 2: AC to just carry a thirty six? So it's like

330
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 2: a ninety ninth percentile caliber score, so one in one

331
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:20,760
Speaker 2: thousand level standardized test score. So the kid was smart

332
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:24,359
Speaker 2: and then got lost in left wing ideology. As you

333
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,479
Speaker 2: pointed out, is living with and has I don't even

334
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,920
Speaker 2: know what you would call it iss dating a trans person. Yeah,

335
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:31,359
Speaker 2: but it's not like a boyfriend or a girl. I

336
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:31,879
Speaker 2: don't even know.

337
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 1: He's dating a dude who's pretending to be a chick. Now,

338
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,520
Speaker 1: is that right? That is correct?

339
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 3: Yes, So he is decided a sexual relationship with a

340
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:43,400
Speaker 3: man who who present presents as female or whatever.

341
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 2: All of the reports about the engravings on the bullets.

342
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:50,200
Speaker 2: As we walked through our left wing slogan.

343
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 3: I believe the girlfriend boy. I'm sorry, the boy whatever

344
00:17:52,840 --> 00:18:00,120
Speaker 3: he is, the trans you know partner is also a furry.

345
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:05,399
Speaker 3: Yeah no, I'm just I'm just thinking that going to

346
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:07,719
Speaker 3: explain to this audience, I will be honest with you.

347
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,640
Speaker 3: I do not this is that that reaches.

348
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:11,880
Speaker 1: There's this whole.

349
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,640
Speaker 3: Online discord some of the words that are being used

350
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 3: for the trans stuff. I'm actually learning some new things

351
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,560
Speaker 3: about that because I don't and furries I am only

352
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:26,719
Speaker 3: familiar with in a very limited fashion. So somebody who

353
00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 3: dresses up as a again, guys, I understand this is true, true,

354
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:38,960
Speaker 3: explaining this audience, furry is someone who dresses up as

355
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:45,439
Speaker 3: a woodland creature for sexual purposes. That is that is

356
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,280
Speaker 3: the truth is it.

357
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:49,879
Speaker 1: Does it have to be a woodland character? Could you

358
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 1: be like a care bear?

359
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 5: Well?

360
00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:53,280
Speaker 1: I think that. I think that is.

361
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,680
Speaker 3: That is what you're in the same kind of idea,

362
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:56,920
Speaker 3: like you dress up as an animal.

363
00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,080
Speaker 2: Basically you are dressing up as an animal, as like

364
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:04,400
Speaker 2: a Disney sort of character, but not a like an

365
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:09,879
Speaker 2: animal Disney We have reached, thank thankfully, thankfully. I'm not

366
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 2: very well versed in this world either. But my point

367
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:16,200
Speaker 2: on this is all of the bullets.

368
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:19,840
Speaker 3: Because you're not you're not emotionally psychologically normal. Yes, if

369
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,400
Speaker 3: I'm talking about now the assassin, if this is what

370
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:24,760
Speaker 3: you're what you're going for, there's there's problems here.

371
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:27,919
Speaker 2: I would say you are not psychologically normal. If you

372
00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 2: are a guy, and you are dating a man that

373
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:37,720
Speaker 2: is deciding to transition to a woman I'm sorry.

374
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 3: Who dresses up like a like a bunny rabbit.

375
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:43,560
Speaker 1: It's fun, super fricking weird. This guy's mental crazy stuff.

376
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:47,679
Speaker 2: And there is a lot of evidence as well that

377
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:52,880
Speaker 2: again he was a super far left winger mentally unstable, clearly,

378
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:56,640
Speaker 2: And there is a lot of evidence out there that

379
00:19:56,800 --> 00:20:01,119
Speaker 2: many different people in the trans community in the state

380
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:06,440
Speaker 2: of Utah, which does exist, by the way, we're aware

381
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,960
Speaker 2: that something was going to happen here. And so I

382
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:13,240
Speaker 2: think it's very important for you all to understand there

383
00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:17,200
Speaker 2: is a calculated attempt because of how embarrassing this is

384
00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,200
Speaker 2: and how awful this is for the left.

385
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,360
Speaker 3: I don't want to take the hit ideologically, they don't

386
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,119
Speaker 3: want to. Yeah, they want to claim that this is

387
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 3: this is not on their side, so to speak. And

388
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:28,720
Speaker 3: I just note, you know, they've tried for a very

389
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 3: long time to say that the guy who shot Gabby

390
00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 3: Giffords was right wing. I mean, that guy was a

391
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:40,400
Speaker 3: pink elephants in the sky, paranoid schizophrenic of no particular

392
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 3: ideological cohesion whatsoever. I mean, you couldn't figure out. But

393
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,280
Speaker 3: they try very hard to make that because we have

394
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:49,880
Speaker 3: a long list now of very left wing people who

395
00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 3: There was the guy who was yelling rand Paul Senator

396
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:55,120
Speaker 3: Paul pull Us on this show. The guy was screaming,

397
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,439
Speaker 3: this is for healthcare, yes. And he was a Bernie,

398
00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:01,640
Speaker 3: a Bernie bro shooting at those congressional members conservatives. He said,

399
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 3: are these conservative members of Congress? When he was walking

400
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 3: to the baseball field with that rifle shot, Stevescaliz tried

401
00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:10,840
Speaker 3: to murder everybody there but Clay. They don't want this

402
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:14,760
Speaker 3: to They don't want this to sort of seep into

403
00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:18,359
Speaker 3: the American consciousness because the second it does, there's a

404
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 3: radicalizing effect here toward we have to deal with this problem. Yes,

405
00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 3: and and you just mentioned people that might have known

406
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 3: about this in advance. I would just say, what does

407
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,919
Speaker 3: it tell you if there were other people either supportive

408
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:36,560
Speaker 3: of or within the trans ideology? And this is very clearly.

409
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,880
Speaker 3: I mean, you think about people people have committed ideological

410
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:43,120
Speaker 3: acts of terrorism for the environment, people for for far

411
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,200
Speaker 3: less than the so called genocide against the trans community

412
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 3: that the left believes is going on. So now we

413
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,960
Speaker 3: look at Okay, who knew that something was coming and

414
00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 3: didn't say anything. Who knew that Charlie Kirk was in

415
00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,480
Speaker 3: danger and didn't go to the authorities. Now you can

416
00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 3: claim one way they're oh, well, maybe that doesn't rise

417
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:03,400
Speaker 3: to criminal culpability. Maybe they yeah, let's take a look

418
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,280
Speaker 3: at that. And I know Director of Patel and Deputy

419
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:09,200
Speaker 3: Director Bongino are going to be as they should take

420
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:10,800
Speaker 3: a look at that, because how could this be any

421
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:12,800
Speaker 3: different than you know, someone saying, you know what, I'm

422
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:14,359
Speaker 3: building a bomb and I'm going to go put it

423
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,399
Speaker 3: in a synagogue, something we dealt with when I was

424
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:19,640
Speaker 3: the NYPD. Yeah, how is it any different than that

425
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 3: lack of basic humanity to say that I'm going to

426
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:25,200
Speaker 3: try to stop this from happening in innocence from being killed.

427
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 2: I think also what you're going to see is some

428
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,400
Speaker 2: of these places online and again we'll get into this,

429
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 2: some of these places online are crazy echo chambers, and

430
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 2: when you go into these communities, they radicalize you because

431
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:47,359
Speaker 2: you lose the capability of understanding the real world. I

432
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 2: thought the governor of Utah actually did a good job

433
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:51,920
Speaker 2: of this. And I know so many of you have

434
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:56,280
Speaker 2: kids and grandkids and you worry about this, the radicalizing

435
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 2: impact of an entirely online culture.

436
00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,879
Speaker 1: Getting out into the real world is actually healthy.

437
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:04,840
Speaker 3: He has said some not so good things too, As

438
00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 3: you know, I'm just just we're going to get hit

439
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,439
Speaker 3: on that unless we point out that this it is

440
00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:12,080
Speaker 3: not a side both sides. The second someone does the

441
00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:15,840
Speaker 3: both sides thing, I you know, shut it down, no way.

442
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 2: But I do think this is something that I spend

443
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:24,000
Speaker 2: a lot of time with as a dad, and I

444
00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 2: know a lot of you as parents and grandparents. How

445
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 2: do you get your kids off your phone and how

446
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:33,080
Speaker 2: do you get your kids into the real world. This

447
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 2: is why somebody sent me an email and I thought

448
00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:39,080
Speaker 2: it was really well said, you know, getting kids involved

449
00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:43,240
Speaker 2: in sports and getting kids involved in extracurricular activities. I

450
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:45,639
Speaker 2: think in an internet age is more important than it

451
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,400
Speaker 2: ever has been in the past, because it forces them

452
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:52,240
Speaker 2: to have that face to face interaction in the real world,

453
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:56,959
Speaker 2: which takes you out of the crazy echo chambers of

454
00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 2: the internet which radicalize you and make you think that

455
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 2: what you are working towards is normal.

456
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 3: Well, so you couldn't do what this if you were

457
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:16,000
Speaker 3: an even vaguely psychologically stable and had anything resembling a conscience.

458
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:18,800
Speaker 3: You couldn't do what this person did to Charlie Kirk

459
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 3: if you recognized him as a human being and a

460
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 3: dad and a father, you couldn't do that. Yes, the way,

461
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,720
Speaker 3: and this I've seen this. I go back to the

462
00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:30,520
Speaker 3: days when Clay we had a whole unit going into

463
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:32,639
Speaker 3: look I was a CIA. We used to see what

464
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 3: these gihatis were saying online, what they thought they were saying,

465
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:37,720
Speaker 3: and encryptid comms what they thought they were saying on

466
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,440
Speaker 3: cell phones. I mean, so you really get in the headspace.

467
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:47,200
Speaker 3: Dehumanization is critical in the mass delusion, and they dehumanized

468
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:50,680
Speaker 3: Charlie Kirk. They turned him into an avatar of some

469
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:55,560
Speaker 3: you know, anti transgenocidal evil. When reality first, I mean,

470
00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 3: put aside even the arguments about what he was saying

471
00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 3: and everything else. He's a dad, he's a husband, he's

472
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:04,000
Speaker 3: a son, he's a neighbor, he's an American, he's a

473
00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 3: good person. You know, all of that gets swept aside

474
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 3: because in these ideological echo chambers, it turns into he

475
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,680
Speaker 3: is something that must be dealt with instead of he's

476
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,760
Speaker 3: a human being. And I've seen this with terrorism over

477
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 3: and over again.

478
00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,200
Speaker 2: I think that's really well said I would also point

479
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:22,240
Speaker 2: this out, and this is what is so, And we're

480
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:24,000
Speaker 2: going to play a couple of year talkbacks here in

481
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 2: a sec before we go to break. Here is what

482
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:30,320
Speaker 2: I would say too. It's one thing for a crazy

483
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:34,679
Speaker 2: person to kill someone. Unfortunately, crazy people will be killing

484
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:38,199
Speaker 2: people for all of our lives. And beyond what I

485
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:40,240
Speaker 2: can't get out of my head, Buck is if you

486
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:42,399
Speaker 2: go watch that video at the moment that the shot

487
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:46,119
Speaker 2: was fired at that Utah free speech event, there is

488
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:49,800
Speaker 2: a guy who stands up and cheers. I don't know

489
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,719
Speaker 2: how many of you have seen that. He's at this

490
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk event. He hears the gun shot ring out,

491
00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 2: he immediately stands up and cheers as if his favorite

492
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:08,200
Speaker 2: team has just scored a touchdown. That reaction is natural.

493
00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:13,560
Speaker 2: His brain is already so polluted that Charlie Kirk is

494
00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:17,159
Speaker 2: so dehumanized to him that he shows up at that event.

495
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:21,280
Speaker 2: And when Charlie Kirk is shot, the instant that he

496
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:25,840
Speaker 2: falls back, that man, everybody else is ducking down. Have

497
00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 2: you seen that video that guy stands up. We should

498
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 2: share it on Clay and Buck because I think it's

499
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 2: so dark. That guy stands up and cheers. Let me

500
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 2: play this for you. AA June says, thanks for last week.

501
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:40,520
Speaker 2: Let's play her.

502
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,399
Speaker 7: I'm a sixty five year old woman, a widow with

503
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:47,200
Speaker 7: four grown children, ten grandchildren. Listen you guys every day

504
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,760
Speaker 7: while I'm working remotely from home. Love you guys. I

505
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:53,200
Speaker 7: feel like you're my family, and I just want to

506
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:56,399
Speaker 7: let you guys know that you were a major help.

507
00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 7: I did not feel all alone listening to you guys

508
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,120
Speaker 7: this week. It was an emotional week to begin with,

509
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,760
Speaker 7: before the thing with Charlie even happened. The whole thing

510
00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:06,679
Speaker 7: with the poor.

511
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 3: Young woman, Well, we really appreciate that and we feel

512
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:12,880
Speaker 3: the same way, and honestly, we were relying on all

513
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:16,000
Speaker 3: of you and leaning on you and using your shoulder

514
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:18,399
Speaker 3: for support too with your calls, but just knowing that

515
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 3: you're out there listening and you're with us in this

516
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,639
Speaker 3: whole process. Clay and I always say we don't need

517
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,199
Speaker 3: therapy because we have this show. So it was a

518
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 3: two way street. It was a two way street keeping

519
00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:32,119
Speaker 3: each other steady and reminding each other we have to

520
00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 3: get back into this fight. So we're thankful to all

521
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:34,120
Speaker 3: of you.

522
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 2: She was pointing out there before she got cut off

523
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:38,200
Speaker 2: that the start of the week was the awful story

524
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 2: out of Charlotte.

525
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, that's right.

526
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:43,919
Speaker 2: So it was just an emotionally devastating you watched the

527
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 2: video of the woman in Charlotte and then the video

528
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:49,119
Speaker 2: of Charlie getting shot. It was as tough of a

529
00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:50,360
Speaker 2: week as I can remember.

530
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:54,200
Speaker 3: That was, I mean, certainly since October seventh in terms

531
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 3: of the level of horror that the news cycle had

532
00:27:59,320 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 3: brought us.

533
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:01,360
Speaker 1: That was the last.

534
00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:04,120
Speaker 3: Feelings of those similar feelings of oh my gosh, what's

535
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:06,720
Speaker 3: going on? And it was one of the toughest news

536
00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 3: cycles we've ever had to deal with, honestly here ever,

537
00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,320
Speaker 3: so even before we were in this in this media world.

538
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:15,240
Speaker 3: So thank you for being here for us. All right, Look,

539
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 3: I do have to tell you. I'm here in the

00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:48,240
Speaker 3: All right, welcome back in to Clay and Buck. We're

574
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,959
Speaker 3: going to talk a bit here about the unhinged and

575
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:55,640
Speaker 3: demonic reaction to the assassination last week of our friend

576
00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:59,760
Speaker 3: Charlie Kirk. It's important that everyone understand what is going

577
00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 3: on here and that we not push aside or sweetness

578
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:07,960
Speaker 3: under the rock or anything. People need to know what

579
00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 3: some of the nurses, some of the pilots, some of

580
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:16,600
Speaker 3: the teachers, some of the go down the list, what

581
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:20,760
Speaker 3: they think about this, or what they're saying publicly about this.

582
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:23,680
Speaker 3: Will I will point out Bill Maher on his show

583
00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:27,240
Speaker 3: This is Cut thirty and he said this to me before,

584
00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:28,880
Speaker 3: and I'll get into Clay what he's said to me,

585
00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 3: because I think it goes right to this. But there

586
00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:35,719
Speaker 3: is a huge difference even in just whether someone who

587
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,800
Speaker 3: is a leftist will talk to you or not if

588
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:40,720
Speaker 3: they know you're a conservative play thirty.

589
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:43,280
Speaker 4: They're the people who don't want to talk. It's my

590
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 4: main issue with them. And Charlie Kirk was a guy

591
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,760
Speaker 4: who like he was always talking, and I talked to

592
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:51,800
Speaker 4: him here. You know, the right wingers say what you

593
00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 4: want about them, but they talk to you. They're not

594
00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:58,160
Speaker 4: into this leftist think that the left really has much

595
00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:00,960
Speaker 4: more of a I don't talk to you. I don't

596
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:04,240
Speaker 4: want to deal with you. You're deplorable. I can't break

597
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:07,480
Speaker 4: bread with you. Yeah, well, that attitude and like all

598
00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:10,200
Speaker 4: the right wingers, they don't have that attitude.

599
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 7: No.

600
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 4: Again, I didn't vote for them. And Charlie Kirk and

601
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 4: I certainly don't agree on much politically, but he sat here.

602
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:19,560
Speaker 4: He's a human being, he's not a monster, and a

603
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:22,479
Speaker 4: husband and a father, Yes, and I liked him. I

604
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:25,240
Speaker 4: liked them all. They're all nice people when you meet

605
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,320
Speaker 4: them in person, and they're not as crazy as they

606
00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 4: would nobody's as crazy as they make them out to be.

607
00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:34,120
Speaker 3: I say, Bill, when i've I did to show the

608
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:37,680
Speaker 3: first time. I don't even know now Clay years ago,

609
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:41,360
Speaker 3: and this is one of our first conversations backstage. He's like,

610
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:43,040
Speaker 3: I appreciate that you come here and you say what

611
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 3: you say, and you tell people what you think. But

612
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:47,840
Speaker 3: you're nice to everybody. You're cordial, you're not being a jerk.

613
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 3: And he said you're one of these happy warriors. I

614
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,920
Speaker 3: think that's a term very well applied to Charlie Kirk.

615
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:57,959
Speaker 3: Many have already said it. Happy warriors, ideological were ideal warriors, right,

616
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:01,080
Speaker 3: that's the whole point. It's supposed to be exchange ideas.

617
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 3: I don't take the positions that I take, and neither

618
00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 3: to Charlie, ou to Uclay to make anyone feel badly.

619
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:11,000
Speaker 3: It's because we want to share the truth with other people.

620
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 3: I actually want them to agree with me. I don't.

621
00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:15,320
Speaker 3: I'd rather much rather have them say you know what,

622
00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:16,840
Speaker 3: you've got a point, or you know what you're right,

623
00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:21,280
Speaker 3: than to feel mocked and belittled or attacked. That's actually

624
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:24,520
Speaker 3: not the point. I mean, that can happen sometimes because

625
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 3: of the way these exchanges go, but that's not the

626
00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 3: point of the exchange. But I know you're looking at this.

627
00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:33,000
Speaker 3: I mean there is a movement now to create a

628
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:37,560
Speaker 3: searchable database online for people that are celebrating and that

629
00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:40,360
Speaker 3: is the appropriate word. They are celebrating the assassination of

630
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 3: Charlie Kirk, which is so monstrous and so disgusting. What

631
00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 3: are you seeing about the numbers that have been gathered so.

632
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:49,719
Speaker 1: Far, supposedly fifty thousand names.

633
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:53,120
Speaker 2: And here's the way that I would analyze this, fifty

634
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:57,960
Speaker 2: thousand people who have gone on social media and celebrated

635
00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:02,040
Speaker 2: the assassination. Say that I would work through it is this.

636
00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:05,320
Speaker 2: I think if you are a public employee, I think

637
00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:08,360
Speaker 2: you should be fired. That is when I say public employee,

638
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,920
Speaker 2: I mean taxpayer funded. If you're a member of the military,

639
00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:15,160
Speaker 2: if you are a member of police, if you are

640
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:19,920
Speaker 2: a member of first responding communities firefighters. I think everyone

641
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:23,520
Speaker 2: who has gone on social media and celebrated a political

642
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:27,280
Speaker 2: assassination should be fired. I don't believe our taxpayer dollars

643
00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,080
Speaker 2: should go for that. If you are The University of Tennessee,

644
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:33,520
Speaker 2: for example, just announced that they have fired a faculty

645
00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:37,800
Speaker 2: member who celebrated Charlie Kirk's assassination. If you are a teacher,

646
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 2: I certainly do not believe that you should be in

647
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:45,680
Speaker 2: charge of molding young minds if you are celebrating political assassination.

648
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:48,960
Speaker 2: When it comes to people who are employed by private companies.

649
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:52,520
Speaker 2: I owned a company, I sold it. I would fire

650
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:56,440
Speaker 2: anyone at my company when I own the company who

651
00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 2: went on social media and said in any way this

652
00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 2: is celebrat too. I think individual business owners should.

653
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:04,240
Speaker 1: Have that right.

654
00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:06,800
Speaker 2: I don't think certainly it should be mandated if you're

655
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:09,919
Speaker 2: a private employee, if you did it in uniform at work,

656
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,600
Speaker 2: to me, it's a no brainer. I would do it individually.

657
00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:15,640
Speaker 2: But again, if you are taxpayer funded, I think we

658
00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:17,960
Speaker 2: should have a pretty bright red line, and I think

659
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,680
Speaker 2: the bright red line should be you shouldn't celebrate. Hey,

660
00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:26,239
Speaker 2: if Rachel Maddow got assassinated, if Barack Obama had gotten assassinated,

661
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:29,280
Speaker 2: you should be fired. If you are a military member,

662
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:31,640
Speaker 2: if you're a police officer, I think you can easily

663
00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:34,920
Speaker 2: kind of work through this, and I don't have a

664
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:37,439
Speaker 2: problem with that at all. Private employers, I think should

665
00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:39,520
Speaker 2: be able to make their own decision.

666
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:42,319
Speaker 3: We'll take some calls here. Krista in Florida with a

667
00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:47,440
Speaker 3: story that ties right into what we're talking about. Welcome Christa.

668
00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:51,040
Speaker 9: Hi, Claian Buck, thank you so much for taking my call.

669
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:54,839
Speaker 9: I really appreciate it. This is it's been shocking, it's

670
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:59,080
Speaker 9: been heartbreaking, But I just want to read you from

671
00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:04,120
Speaker 9: this man LinkedIn page firefighter and t has this material

672
00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:06,040
Speaker 9: specialist chemical material.

673
00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:08,360
Speaker 2: Sorry, sorry, let me let me say, can you not

674
00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:11,920
Speaker 2: share full name because look, there could be there could

675
00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:15,200
Speaker 2: be somebody having impostors. I just don't want this station

676
00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:18,640
Speaker 2: to be putting people on blast without us knowing anymore.

677
00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:20,400
Speaker 1: Okay, thank you, No, absolutely not.

678
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:24,480
Speaker 9: I will not say the name, just the credentials. Yes,

679
00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:28,799
Speaker 9: because then the most shocking part of that was this

680
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:37,000
Speaker 9: was my children's youth ministry leader and he has you know,

681
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:40,200
Speaker 9: he was working with my young adults.

682
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:41,680
Speaker 1: And what did he say?

683
00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:49,160
Speaker 9: Specifically, he he celebrated one less maggot on the world.

684
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:57,240
Speaker 9: I just he was insulting our priest for praying.

685
00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:02,960
Speaker 2: I mean, look, I appreciate you calling. Anyone who is

686
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:09,280
Speaker 2: involved in children should be, in my opinion, immediately fired

687
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:13,399
Speaker 2: from their job if they are in any way celebrating

688
00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:14,960
Speaker 2: the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

689
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,680
Speaker 3: You know, thank you for calling. That's a tough thing

690
00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:22,400
Speaker 3: because it was like such a betrayal. You've entrusted your

691
00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:27,239
Speaker 3: kids to person for their moral development, youth minister, and

692
00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:33,680
Speaker 3: you can't understand the obvious unbelievable and demonic moral failure

693
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 3: of celebrating this uh in any way, shape or form.

694
00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:42,160
Speaker 3: It's it's stunning, and we're seeing so much of this

695
00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:45,800
Speaker 3: uh and and I just I don't know, I Clay,

696
00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:50,080
Speaker 3: it's it has made me think that this country has

697
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:53,400
Speaker 3: a has a darker future than and I had anticipated before,

698
00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:57,600
Speaker 3: just because this, this has to be confronted. And I

699
00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:00,600
Speaker 3: would just point out, and that's why I don't like this. Oh,

700
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 3: it's on both sides. And let's just all do dialogue now. No,

701
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:08,440
Speaker 3: Charlie was doing dialogue. That's the point. His whole movement

702
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:13,080
Speaker 3: was built on peaceful dialogue. And this is what happened.

703
00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 3: And look at all these people who are celebrating this,

704
00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:19,840
Speaker 3: and now there's also this really honestly, it's just so lame.

705
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:23,520
Speaker 3: But this effort to say, well, conservatives are doing cancel culture. Now,

706
00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:27,080
Speaker 3: everyone who's saying that if any person in any job

707
00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 3: said a particular racial slur, they would all demand the

708
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:34,400
Speaker 3: immediate firing of that person, probably in any context whatsoever.

709
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:37,600
Speaker 3: They all absolutely believe in people being fired from their

710
00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:42,319
Speaker 3: jobs for offending or for political reasons or whatever. But

711
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:45,719
Speaker 3: now they're pretending like this isn't. So they obviously have

712
00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:49,880
Speaker 3: their red lines. They're pretending like this celebrating the assassination

713
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:53,040
Speaker 3: of a father, a husband, a young guy thirty one

714
00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:55,800
Speaker 3: years old, that's not a red line, Like you should

715
00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:58,960
Speaker 3: keep your job even after you have brought that kind

716
00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:02,640
Speaker 3: of infanty on whatever organization you work for. That's insane.

717
00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:04,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I also think this is where I always

718
00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 2: try to think on precedent, And I know this is challenging,

719
00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:11,680
Speaker 2: but I don't even know who the equivalent of Charlie

720
00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,359
Speaker 2: Kirk would be on the left. But I've just used

721
00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:16,520
Speaker 2: the name Rachel Maddow. Buck's right that she's not a

722
00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:20,000
Speaker 2: perfect analogy. They don't have a perfect analogy because their

723
00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:22,719
Speaker 2: arguments are bad and they don't really believe in free

724
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:23,520
Speaker 2: speech by and law.

725
00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:26,040
Speaker 3: They are very much trying to build up somebody on

726
00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:28,560
Speaker 3: the left now as the new person for the youth.

727
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 3: And he's a I'm not gonna say his name on

728
00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:32,880
Speaker 3: the show. He's a very bad person. He's just a

729
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:35,480
Speaker 3: bad human being. So I don't want to but there's

730
00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:37,600
Speaker 3: someone on the left that there. I wrote an op

731
00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:39,479
Speaker 3: ed for the New York Times design understand that about

732
00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:43,080
Speaker 3: this issue is a I could play clips on this show.

733
00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:45,560
Speaker 3: The fact the New York Times would give that guy, well,

734
00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:47,759
Speaker 3: the New York Times is a disgrace too. But it's

735
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:50,960
Speaker 3: interesting to me because our Charlie was a good and

736
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:56,319
Speaker 3: decent human being, just completely without getting into his politics

737
00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:58,359
Speaker 3: and the left. Of course, the person that they want

738
00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:01,360
Speaker 3: to build up is an outright scumback outrights, comeback. Just

739
00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:05,279
Speaker 3: to anyone who's curious, knows he does understand. This guy

740
00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 3: does understand internet culture and online video games. That I

741
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:09,200
Speaker 3: will say, but that's about it.

742
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:11,640
Speaker 2: Well, let's use Rachel Maddow as an example, or this

743
00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:15,600
Speaker 2: unnamed guy. I also think if they were assassinated at

744
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:18,560
Speaker 2: a free speech event and you went on and you

745
00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:22,120
Speaker 2: celebrated that as a teacher, as a faculty member at

746
00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 2: a university, as a first responder, as anyone who's employed

747
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 2: by taxpayers, I think you should be fired for that too.

748
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:33,160
Speaker 2: So I think you can easily to me setting the

749
00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:37,200
Speaker 2: precedent of where is the line that we draw? And

750
00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:40,560
Speaker 2: again I think private employers should be able to make

751
00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:43,759
Speaker 2: their own decisions. I would have the same standard both directions.

752
00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,720
Speaker 2: I would fire someone when I ran my own company,

753
00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:50,600
Speaker 2: and I have expansive first Amendment beliefs, but people don't

754
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:52,759
Speaker 2: under celebrate death something.

755
00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:55,440
Speaker 3: So is the standard that the left thinks that we're

756
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:58,279
Speaker 3: all supposed to live by, that you can say absolutely

757
00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:01,880
Speaker 3: anything and I mean anything and keep your job. Of course,

758
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:04,800
Speaker 3: they wanted people to get fired for using the wrong pronouns.

759
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:06,279
Speaker 3: Of yes, these are the people that now all of

760
00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:09,160
Speaker 3: a sudden, are free speech absolutists. The First Amendment means

761
00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:12,000
Speaker 3: that the government can't take action against you for what

762
00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:14,879
Speaker 3: you say. It doesn't mean that your private employer has

763
00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:17,000
Speaker 3: to keep you employed no matter what you do, no

764
00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:20,279
Speaker 3: matter what you say in public. That's not what it means.

765
00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:20,839
Speaker 3: So I know.

766
00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:23,799
Speaker 2: That's why to me, I mean again, you break it down.

767
00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:28,319
Speaker 2: I think in times of emotion it's challenging, but there

768
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:31,880
Speaker 2: is a standard for basic humanity. And if you celebrate

769
00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:35,680
Speaker 2: the murder of dads and moms for sharing their political opinions,

770
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:39,680
Speaker 2: in my opinion, you have failed the basic standard of humanity.

771
00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:42,759
Speaker 2: If you fail the basic standard of humanity, I don't

772
00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:46,520
Speaker 2: want you employed at my company. I don't want you

773
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:50,920
Speaker 2: instructing my children. If you are taxpayer funded, then I

774
00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:53,880
Speaker 2: think you if you fail the basic standard of humanity,

775
00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 2: you shouldn't be taxpayer funded anymore.

776
00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:56,239
Speaker 1: Now.

777
00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:59,840
Speaker 2: Individual owners of businesses, I think they should have the

778
00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:02,560
Speaker 2: to decide who they employ and not. But this is

779
00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:05,840
Speaker 2: not a tough call to me. We can debate sometimes

780
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:09,399
Speaker 2: gray areas of hey, what is an acceptable speech? What's

781
00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:11,160
Speaker 2: not cheering?

782
00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:15,560
Speaker 1: Assassination? You should get fire? In my always humble opinion,

783
00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:16,520
Speaker 1: this is not a tough call.

784
00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:19,200
Speaker 3: We'll take more of your calls here in just a moment,

785
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,239

815
00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:48,439
Speaker 2: You're joined now by Senator Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee. We're

816
00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:51,680
Speaker 2: going to dive into President Trump's announcement last week that

817
00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:56,279
Speaker 2: he's going to be bringing the National Guard into Memphis, which,

818
00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:59,359
Speaker 2: according to many measures of violent crime on a per

819
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:03,000
Speaker 2: capita base, this may well be the most dangerous city

820
00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:07,440
Speaker 2: in the entire country. But I want to start with this,

821
00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:11,680
Speaker 2: Center Blackburn. First of all, I missed you in Knoxville,

822
00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:15,239
Speaker 2: where you and I were both attending the Georgia Tennessee game,

823
00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:18,360
Speaker 2: which did not end well for the good guys in

824
00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:21,319
Speaker 2: this case the team wearing orange. But I know that

825
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:25,160
Speaker 2: you were all over the place there and it's a

826
00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:28,799
Speaker 2: sporting event. But I bet you had a similar experience

827
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:33,279
Speaker 2: as I did, Senator Blackburn, which is the number of

828
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:36,040
Speaker 2: people who came up to me that wanted to talk

829
00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:40,200
Speaker 2: about what happened to Charlie Kirk, even at a sporting event,

830
00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:46,000
Speaker 2: was unlike anything I've ever seen before. No One usually

831
00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:48,160
Speaker 2: people want to come up and it's almost exclusively, Hey,

832
00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:49,520
Speaker 2: who's going to win the game? What do you think

833
00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:52,080
Speaker 2: is going to happen? Almost everybody that came up to

834
00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:54,759
Speaker 2: me at the sporting event wanted to talk about the

835
00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:58,040
Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk situation. I not asked you this, but I

836
00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:00,719
Speaker 2: bet you found it to be similar as well. And

837
00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:03,799
Speaker 2: I know you have a grandson that attends the same

838
00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:07,520
Speaker 2: school as my sons, and the impact on young men

839
00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:13,080
Speaker 2: in particular of this assassination has been extraordinarily awful. But

840
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:17,759
Speaker 2: their response has been I have seen very profoundly courageous.

841
00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:20,279
Speaker 2: I've been very encouraged. So that's a big prelude, but

842
00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:23,480
Speaker 2: I'm curious what you found in both those situations.

843
00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:27,560
Speaker 5: Yes, indeed, I will tell you. I have been just

844
00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:32,080
Speaker 5: so honored by the conduct of my grandsons and their

845
00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 5: classmates and how they held a memorial for Charlie kirk

846
00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:42,560
Speaker 5: in for the remembrance of nine to eleven, And our

847
00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:46,080
Speaker 5: grandson even noticed that the flags had not been moved

848
00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:52,560
Speaker 5: to half staff before before class started, So he walked

849
00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:56,640
Speaker 5: out to the flagpole and he lowered the flag to

850
00:44:56,719 --> 00:45:01,160
Speaker 5: half staff, and I think the teachers kind of got

851
00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 5: in behind him a little bit about it, but he

852
00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:08,200
Speaker 5: said he was following the president's order for all flags

853
00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:12,640
Speaker 5: to fly at half staff until six pm on Sunday.

854
00:45:13,160 --> 00:45:15,359
Speaker 5: And I said, you know, if that's what you get

855
00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:19,040
Speaker 5: in trouble for, that's a pretty good thing. Honoring someone

856
00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 5: who was assassinated, honoring those that lost their lives in

857
00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:28,000
Speaker 5: our military who fought after nine to eleven, in all

858
00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:33,920
Speaker 5: of those brave first responders, and doing what the President

859
00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:37,480
Speaker 5: said was the order of the day, which was lowering

860
00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:41,800
Speaker 5: the flags. And you're right about being at University of Tennessee,

861
00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:44,760
Speaker 5: we could hardly get through the crowd, like you said,

862
00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:49,959
Speaker 5: without people saying, look, we stand with Charlie Kirk, we

863
00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:56,319
Speaker 5: stand with family values in Tennessee values and morals, and

864
00:45:57,000 --> 00:46:02,080
Speaker 5: we stand with the president. And it was just such

865
00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:06,400
Speaker 5: an outpouring I think for so many college students, whether

866
00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:09,759
Speaker 5: you were there in Circle Park or at one of

867
00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:14,279
Speaker 5: the fraternity houses or wherever play, it was astounding to

868
00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:19,839
Speaker 5: me that these kids were such a fan of Charlie Kirk.

869
00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:24,239
Speaker 5: They listened to him, they followed him, they enjoyed his podcast,

870
00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:29,480
Speaker 5: and they wanted to They loved the way he speaks

871
00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:34,560
Speaker 5: truth and have so gravitated to that. And they left

872
00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:39,120
Speaker 5: President Trump and they just wanted to register their shock

873
00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:43,440
Speaker 5: and their disappointment with what had happened and their grief

874
00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:49,880
Speaker 5: in many respects. And we had a great sermon yesterday

875
00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:53,399
Speaker 5: at our church and the minister said, something I think

876
00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:57,479
Speaker 5: is so important is that while we turned the other cheek,

877
00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:01,319
Speaker 5: and we know to turn the other cheek evil, we

878
00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:07,840
Speaker 5: cannot turn a blind eye. And that is incumbent on

879
00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:12,520
Speaker 5: us to remember that we have to push back and

880
00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:17,680
Speaker 5: fight against evil. And it is pure evil that caused

881
00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:22,440
Speaker 5: someone to try to silence Charlie Kirk, and as we

882
00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:26,880
Speaker 5: have seen, his message now will be more powerful than ever.

883
00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:32,160
Speaker 5: The outpouring of support for Charlie in his work for

884
00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:38,120
Speaker 5: Erica and their children. It is not singular, but it

885
00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:42,920
Speaker 5: is global in nature, and indeed, I think this is

886
00:47:43,239 --> 00:47:44,800
Speaker 5: truly a turning point.

887
00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:49,440
Speaker 3: Senator Blackburn, appreciate you being with us. Something that's also

888
00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:53,680
Speaker 3: getting some attention in the news cycle today is the

889
00:47:53,800 --> 00:48:00,040
Speaker 3: move by President Trump to perhaps bring National Guard and

890
00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:03,480
Speaker 3: and bring federal resources to your home state and specifically

891
00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:07,480
Speaker 3: to help tackle the out of control murder rate in

892
00:48:07,520 --> 00:48:09,880
Speaker 3: the city of Memphis. What can you tell us you

893
00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:13,080
Speaker 3: know about this so far, what stage is the planning

894
00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:15,520
Speaker 3: and do you believe that this would be able to

895
00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:19,479
Speaker 3: have a marked impact and effect to bring that murder

896
00:48:19,520 --> 00:48:19,959
Speaker 3: rate down?

897
00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:24,680
Speaker 5: Yes, indeed, I do think it is going to be helpful.

898
00:48:25,239 --> 00:48:29,600
Speaker 5: And what we know is this Cash Fattel gave me

899
00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:32,680
Speaker 5: a commitment when he came to meet with me before

900
00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:39,080
Speaker 5: his hearing for his FBI confirmation, and I'm on Senate

901
00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:43,120
Speaker 5: Judiciary Committee. I asked him in my office and then

902
00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:46,560
Speaker 5: again publicly at the hearing to help me with Memphis

903
00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:51,520
Speaker 5: and getting an FBI surge in Memphis. Under President Trump's

904
00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:55,560
Speaker 5: first term, we had a program there called Legend. It

905
00:48:55,880 --> 00:49:01,600
Speaker 5: had great results. Biden ended it. Crime surged. We needed

906
00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:05,279
Speaker 5: something back, so this summer for two months we had

907
00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:10,239
Speaker 5: Operation Viper. There have been over five hundred arrest There

908
00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:15,320
Speaker 5: have already been over one hundred indictments. We know Memphis

909
00:49:15,480 --> 00:49:20,200
Speaker 5: has one hundred games. They have a per capital murder

910
00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:24,799
Speaker 5: rate of twenty five hundred per one hundred thousand. That

911
00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:29,400
Speaker 5: is why it's the most dangerous city in the country.

912
00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:34,000
Speaker 5: We know that during the surge, Memphis had the best

913
00:49:34,200 --> 00:49:38,319
Speaker 5: August it has had in years. Whether it's murders or

914
00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:45,160
Speaker 5: rapes or thefts, burglaries, assaults, all the numbers have been

915
00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:50,200
Speaker 5: down and significantly down. Some the best in twenty years,

916
00:49:50,239 --> 00:49:53,920
Speaker 5: some the best in over five years. So this has

917
00:49:54,000 --> 00:49:57,520
Speaker 5: made a difference. Now the surge with the FBI is over.

918
00:49:58,040 --> 00:50:02,880
Speaker 5: They've worked closely with MO Memphis Police, with the Mayor

919
00:50:03,280 --> 00:50:10,960
Speaker 5: of Memphis, and they need to continue this multi phase

920
00:50:11,239 --> 00:50:18,680
Speaker 5: approach and it has been an interdisciplinary strategy with different agencies.

921
00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:24,080
Speaker 5: So in order to back up the Memphis Police Department,

922
00:50:24,160 --> 00:50:26,560
Speaker 5: you will have the National Guard. Now they can go in,

923
00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:31,399
Speaker 5: they can do paperwork, they can do logistics, they can

924
00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:33,879
Speaker 5: do traffic. There are so many things they can do.

925
00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:38,680
Speaker 5: And this will allow Memphis Police who do have arrest

926
00:50:38,760 --> 00:50:44,800
Speaker 5: powers to go in and apprehend others in these gangs

927
00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:49,040
Speaker 5: and get them off the streets. And that's where Memphis

928
00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:55,120
Speaker 5: PD needs to be focused is continuing to apprehend these

929
00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:59,120
Speaker 5: gang leaders and gang members that are selling drugs, that

930
00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:04,400
Speaker 5: are doing so trafficking, human trafficking, that are carrying out

931
00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:08,120
Speaker 5: these sets. You know, in Memphis it's a logistics hub,

932
00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:11,880
Speaker 5: and we have the port at Memphis. We have all

933
00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:16,200
Speaker 5: five Class A railroads I forty that goes from the

934
00:51:16,239 --> 00:51:20,319
Speaker 5: East coast to the west coast, and you also have

935
00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:24,960
Speaker 5: fe X. So when you've got all of this with

936
00:51:25,120 --> 00:51:30,240
Speaker 5: the river, the rail, the highways, the air, cargo theft

937
00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:36,560
Speaker 5: is a big issue and these gangs have created processes

938
00:51:36,680 --> 00:51:41,040
Speaker 5: to go in and rip these containers and carry out

939
00:51:41,120 --> 00:51:46,839
Speaker 5: cargo theft. So being able to have the police work

940
00:51:46,920 --> 00:51:52,040
Speaker 5: with these companies whether it's rail or water, are highways

941
00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:55,880
Speaker 5: and I get a handle around this cargo theft is

942
00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:59,960
Speaker 5: vitally important. Also, so the National Guard is going to

943
00:52:00,360 --> 00:52:05,799
Speaker 5: be appreciated, They are going to be welcomed in Memphis.

944
00:52:05,840 --> 00:52:09,279
Speaker 5: We want Memphis to be safe, We want it to

945
00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:13,920
Speaker 5: be prosperous. It is a wonderful city. It has a

946
00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:18,879
Speaker 5: brilliant it has a promising future, and a big part

947
00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:21,280
Speaker 5: of that is getting the crime under control.

948
00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:25,840
Speaker 2: Center Blackburn, I just Buck and I started off the

949
00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:30,759
Speaker 2: show talking about the dark soul of the left in

950
00:52:30,800 --> 00:52:35,719
Speaker 2: this country that so many people have felt compelled publicly

951
00:52:36,239 --> 00:52:40,400
Speaker 2: to celebrate the assassination of Charlie Kirk. This is a

952
00:52:40,440 --> 00:52:43,040
Speaker 2: big question, and it's one that I've been thinking about

953
00:52:43,080 --> 00:52:48,000
Speaker 2: a lot. How do we fix this? Because if your

954
00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:50,480
Speaker 2: soul is so dark that when you see a father

955
00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:53,960
Speaker 2: murdered in cold blood simply for sitting in front of

956
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:57,480
Speaker 2: an open mic and saying tell me whatever you believe too,

957
00:52:58,440 --> 00:53:02,200
Speaker 2: the soul of so many people is profoundly evil here.

958
00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:05,360
Speaker 2: How do we fix the rot in our culture?

959
00:53:05,920 --> 00:53:07,080
Speaker 1: What can we do.

960
00:53:08,600 --> 00:53:08,920
Speaker 9: Well?

961
00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:14,520
Speaker 5: This is something that talking with people through the process

962
00:53:14,560 --> 00:53:18,640
Speaker 5: of legislation that I have worked on with the Kids

963
00:53:18,640 --> 00:53:22,359
Speaker 5: Online Safety Act and trying to get that passed. And

964
00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:26,640
Speaker 5: you look at what these young people are picking up

965
00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:31,360
Speaker 5: on social media. They become isolated. They get onto these

966
00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:35,560
Speaker 5: platforms like Reddit and discord, and they get into these

967
00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:40,120
Speaker 5: discussion groups, and instead of it being a tool that

968
00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:44,080
Speaker 5: opens their mind and something for good, it narrows their

969
00:53:44,239 --> 00:53:50,120
Speaker 5: thought process and they become very angry. So I think

970
00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:52,400
Speaker 5: the church has a role to play in this. I

971
00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:55,880
Speaker 5: think parents have a role to play in this. A

972
00:53:55,920 --> 00:54:00,600
Speaker 5: governance for social media platforms have a role to play

973
00:54:00,760 --> 00:54:05,279
Speaker 5: in this. Looking at the mental health of kids. That

974
00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:08,359
Speaker 5: is something that has to be done. It's not going

975
00:54:08,440 --> 00:54:11,799
Speaker 5: to be fixed by one thing or another thing. But

976
00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:15,920
Speaker 5: I do believe that strong families they can help. I

977
00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:19,520
Speaker 5: do believe is that getting kids off of these social

978
00:54:19,600 --> 00:54:24,280
Speaker 5: media platforms that will help. I do think that incur

979
00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:26,360
Speaker 5: And I will say this, I think the Governor of

980
00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:33,400
Speaker 5: Utah has done an exemplary job in this getting kids

981
00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:38,960
Speaker 5: off these devices. You know, right now, the studies that

982
00:54:39,000 --> 00:54:42,640
Speaker 5: we have seen as we've worked on keeping kids safe

983
00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:47,120
Speaker 5: and trying to hold social media to account. You know,

984
00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:50,399
Speaker 5: kids are spending teenagers are spending as much as eight

985
00:54:50,400 --> 00:54:54,360
Speaker 5: hours a day on the phone, eight hours. Middle school

986
00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:59,600
Speaker 5: kids are spending about five and when they're doing this

987
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:05,680
Speaker 5: being exposed to things that young minds are not equipped

988
00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:08,399
Speaker 5: to see. This. I mean, this is when we have

989
00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:12,320
Speaker 5: ratings on movies in theaters. You can't take a tile

990
00:55:12,719 --> 00:55:15,800
Speaker 5: to an X rated movie. You can't sell them alcohol

991
00:55:16,040 --> 00:55:21,040
Speaker 5: or tobacco or firearms. You can't take them to a

992
00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:27,600
Speaker 5: pornographic show or a strip club, or sell them magazines.

993
00:55:27,680 --> 00:55:31,680
Speaker 5: But on the virtual space, they're exposed to it twenty

994
00:55:31,719 --> 00:55:36,960
Speaker 5: four to seven and they become desensitized. And you know,

995
00:55:37,160 --> 00:55:41,239
Speaker 5: I just I am, and some of my friends, we

996
00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:45,680
Speaker 5: are just praying, deeply, praying that scales will fall from

997
00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:49,960
Speaker 5: eyes and that people will awaken and they will realize

998
00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:54,560
Speaker 5: what is happening to our children in our society. That

999
00:55:54,640 --> 00:55:59,520
Speaker 5: they will encourage our children to boldly stand for values

1000
00:55:59,680 --> 00:56:04,319
Speaker 5: and for right and to stand against some of this

1001
00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:09,120
Speaker 5: evil presence to come off of these devices. And that

1002
00:56:09,280 --> 00:56:14,880
Speaker 5: means that adults, parents, teachers, preachers, everyone's going to have

1003
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:15,839
Speaker 5: to do their part.

1004
00:56:16,680 --> 00:56:19,560
Speaker 3: Senator Blackbird always appreciates you. Thanks for joining us.

1005
00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:21,680
Speaker 5: You got it. Take care, Binya.

1006
00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:25,759
Speaker 3: When inflation lingers, when we see unemployment figures that are

1007
00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:27,440
Speaker 3: starting to go in the wrong direction, and when we

1008
00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:30,319
Speaker 3: realize that that thirty seven trillion in debt is going

1009
00:56:30,360 --> 00:56:32,719
Speaker 3: to be there and getting bigger no matter what this

1010
00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:35,960

1011
