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 --> 00:00:07,080 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. The second hour of The Clay Travis 3 00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:10,399 Speaker 1: and Buck Sexton Show is here, everybody, Thank you so 4 00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:13,560 Speaker 1: much for being with us. First hour, we talked about 5 00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:17,800 Speaker 1: Biden's plummeting poll numbers. It's really a Democrat party overall, 6 00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 1: I should note it's not like Democrats in Congress have 7 00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:22,880 Speaker 1: been doing a good job. In fact, they wanted to 8 00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:25,080 Speaker 1: spend They were all on board for the Build Back 9 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:28,920 Speaker 1: Better agenda except for Joe Mansion, who saved them from 10 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:32,199 Speaker 1: their own lunacy. And now hopefully the whole country can 11 00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:34,640 Speaker 1: be saved from Democrat lunacy after this mid term, at 12 00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:38,000 Speaker 1: least for a while. We shall see. But on crime, 13 00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,920 Speaker 1: the Democrats have also collectively lost their minds. We know that, 14 00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:46,080 Speaker 1: and the numbers speak to this. In New York City, 15 00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:51,240 Speaker 1: major crimes this year over last year up thirty seven percent. 16 00:00:51,320 --> 00:01:00,520 Speaker 1: That includes grand larceny, robbery, burglary, murders. I believe down 17 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 1: year over year about five percent, so not all that 18 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 1: statistically significant because last year was a very high year 19 00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:10,039 Speaker 1: for the last five years, and when it comes to 20 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: murders in New York murders also up nationwide thirty percent 21 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,479 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty over the year before that. As we know, 22 00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 1: cities like Houston, Phoenix, Philadelphia, Chicago are dealing with record 23 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 1: levels of homicides and shootings. And this all comes from 24 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:35,319 Speaker 1: bad ideas pushed by the Democrat Party. Just gonna say 25 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,839 Speaker 1: it because it's true. That's the reality. That's why things 26 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 1: have gotten worse. And we see in New York a 27 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,760 Speaker 1: rare bit of good news on the criminal justice front, 28 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 1: as Jose Alba, the bodega employee sixty two years old, 29 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 1: who defended himself and we can all say this now 30 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 1: with even greater clarity or in a sense, because there's 31 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 1: no alleged criminal charge against him, they dropped the murder charges. 32 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:12,559 Speaker 1: In New York, the district attorney here, after a massive outcry, 33 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:18,359 Speaker 1: dropped the murder charge against Jose Alba Clay this I have. 34 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 1: I'm of two minds about this. I want to tell 35 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 1: you what I'm thinking, and then you'd tell me legally, 36 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 1: and then politically you know what you what you're seeing here. 37 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 1: On the one hand, of course, this is the right decision, 38 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 1: this is the just decision for this period of time. 39 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:39,119 Speaker 1: But the fact that this could have even happened when 40 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 1: you have clear on color video, clear color video, you 41 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 1: know up close of the entire event. It's on video camera, 42 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,919 Speaker 1: there's audio the whole you saw everything you needed to see. 43 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 1: Here is district attorney, the entire incident captured. And not 44 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: only did they charge him, they charged him with second 45 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:04,080 Speaker 1: green murder, and they wanted initially a half a million 46 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:08,080 Speaker 1: dollars Bill Clay. They wanted to hold this guy without 47 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,959 Speaker 1: even letting him go home until the trial. That was 48 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 1: the purpose initially of the district attorney. How can we 49 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:21,239 Speaker 1: feel about Democrat controlled prosecutors offices at a time when 50 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:25,920 Speaker 1: the most obvious self defense case on video has to 51 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 1: requires this kind of outcry for them to drop murder charges. 52 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 1: I think it's a political calculation by DA Alvin Bragg, 53 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: and let me give you my analysis here. Buck Alvin 54 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 1: Bragg basically has been rational when it comes to the 55 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: Trump prosecutions and investigations that they've been attempting in New 56 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 1: York City. He effectively said, hey, we ain't got nothing here. 57 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 1: And the prosecutors that had been investigating and wanted to 58 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: bring these charges, the DA's were so few that he 59 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 1: said that that they walked out. They went and told 60 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 1: the New York Times, and Alvin Bragg got raked over 61 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 1: the coals for not being sufficiently anti Trump in his 62 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: analysis of these cases. I think this is the I'm 63 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 1: going to be uber woke here and BLM is not 64 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 1: going to be mad at me too. I've already got 65 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: the anti Trump people who are furious because I've decided 66 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,360 Speaker 1: that looking at all the evidence, there is not much 67 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:31,600 Speaker 1: of a case against Donald Trump here in New York. 68 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 1: And that's effectively what he did. And then I think 69 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,720 Speaker 1: simultaneously he had to have seen this video. There's no 70 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,159 Speaker 1: way if you are Alvin Bragg that you did not 71 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,359 Speaker 1: watch this video. And I think he said, we're gonna 72 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,719 Speaker 1: overcharge and we are going to go way over the 73 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: top on this guy, because if we don't, BLM is 74 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 1: going to come after us, and then I'm gonna have 75 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: BLM and the anti Trump people angry at me, and 76 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,720 Speaker 1: I can't manage that as a Da York city. So 77 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: we're gonna overcharge here. And then when I have to 78 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: walk back to the charges, no one can accuse me 79 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,919 Speaker 1: of not protecting black lives in New York City. I 80 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:12,359 Speaker 1: think that was his entire calculus. I think I just 81 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: walked through the whole thing with you. Leezelden, who is 82 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 1: running against HOCOL. Now he's a Republican, but we've had 83 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 1: Lee on the show. He's a good man, he's a patriot, 84 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:26,719 Speaker 1: he's a smart guy. I'm really hoping, just for the 85 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:30,719 Speaker 1: benefit of New York State, that enough New Yorkers wake up. Okay, 86 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:34,839 Speaker 1: stop with this Democrat nonsense of Oh it's all you know, 87 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 1: the whole all of our rights are being taken away. 88 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 1: That's all the CNN noise. You want a state that 89 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:42,919 Speaker 1: has people coming to it, where business is flourishing and 90 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: people are safe on the streets. Vote for Leezeldon, Right, 91 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:50,680 Speaker 1: But he is saying he is promised. He's told us 92 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,720 Speaker 1: this ye that the first day he's governor, he's gonna 93 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: fire Alvin Bragg. So your point about now, there are 94 00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 1: some who believe that if the crime situation continues into 95 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 1: the fall. Our friend Mark Simone on w o R NYC, 96 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: fellow radio host, great guy, He thinks that HOCAL may 97 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: actually fire Brag as it gets closer to the election, 98 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: if that is an issue that resonates because people are 99 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 1: sick of this nonsense. Man when you see the data 100 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 1: that it's up thirty seven percent year over year. Even 101 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 1: the mayor Adams, who has not been doing a good job, 102 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 1: he saw this video. Yeah, to his credit and he 103 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,839 Speaker 1: was like, I stand with the bodega worker who's trying 104 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,279 Speaker 1: to do his job and who was assaulted. I mean, Clay, 105 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 1: you could I've sat through law enforcement training, intelligence officer 106 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 1: trainings where you did USU for stuff. Right, you could 107 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:47,600 Speaker 1: use that video as here is what a self defense 108 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 1: case looks like. It is one oh one level analysis. 109 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:54,480 Speaker 1: Let's also point out that go fund me refused to 110 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 1: allow jose Alba to raise money for his own defense, 111 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:02,919 Speaker 1: and that go fund whoever is running that ridiculously woke 112 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,719 Speaker 1: company now has been on the wrong side of a 113 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,279 Speaker 1: bunch of cases. Right, They wouldn't allow Kyle Rittenhouse to 114 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 1: raise money jury. Here's all the evidence, much of it 115 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: on video as well. Clear case of self defense. This 116 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: a clear case of self defense. Based on the identity 117 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:22,400 Speaker 1: of who is defending themselves. Go fund Me is deciding 118 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: whether or not they deserve to have legal representation, which 119 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 1: is again, as a warrior, the very essence of the 120 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 1: worst thing. If you want to talk about historically the 121 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 1: worst thing that you could do. It's deciding that you 122 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 1: don't even deserve a good legal defense. I mean, so 123 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 1: it's wild. To be woke is to be pro To 124 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 1: be woke is to be pro criminal, to ignore victims 125 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 1: and be anti police. That's actually the trajectory, that's actually 126 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 1: the thought process. Pro criminal, ignore victims, hate the cops. 127 00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: That is what wokeness demands of people today. And this 128 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 1: is why you keep seeing incident after incident where it's 129 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: not even a close call and they're they're blaming the cops. 130 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: You know, we talked about this over the weekend where 131 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 1: you had this guy who's shooting into apartment with children 132 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: in Minneapolis, and there are there are people gathering like 133 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 1: with candlelight vigils outside because of how how evil and 134 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: racist this shooting was. Who were most of those people buck, Oh, 135 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: they're white lib biden oders. Of course that's what this is. 136 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 1: This is the same people that were yelling at me 137 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,199 Speaker 1: for my mask in Ashville or my mask take I 138 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 1: should say, well, I think this is really important because 139 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 1: what democrats have allowed to happen is and this happens 140 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 1: with the Latin X, this happens with BLM protest. There 141 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 1: is a segment of the population in America, the woke 142 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 1: white electorate, which is now the base of the Democrat Party. 143 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 1: I mean, that's not me saying that. That is, if 144 00:08:55,840 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 1: you look at the data, whites who are woe are 145 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:04,200 Speaker 1: becoming more and more the voice of the Democrat Party, 146 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 1: and the Democrats are losing Hispanic, Asian and black support. 147 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:10,959 Speaker 1: In fact, there was a great article at CNN of 148 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 1: all places, buck that pointed out that in this era 149 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 1: where the Democrats want to sell racial identity, politics and 150 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:24,320 Speaker 1: division all the time, that we're actually trending towards a 151 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:30,959 Speaker 1: less racially diverse electorate. In other words, what I mean 152 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 1: by that, and I didn't say it, well, what I 153 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,440 Speaker 1: mean by that is because black and Asian and Hispanic 154 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 1: voters are moving towards the Republican Party, the gap in 155 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 1: how the races vote is becoming less significant. At a 156 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 1: time when you would look around the country and think, boy, 157 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 1: we are filled with racial strife, the woke white community, 158 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 1: which I believe is primarily driving the racial strife, is 159 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: actually sending people who are black and Hispanic and Asian 160 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:05,319 Speaker 1: to the republic Party. Because these minority voters are frustrated 161 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 1: with how much the white woke class has taken over, 162 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 1: and they're sitting around in their inner city communities, many 163 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: of them saying, wait a minute, you're not living on 164 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 1: a day to day basis with the crime that we 165 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: have here. You show up for your BLM protests so 166 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,679 Speaker 1: you can take a picture and post it on Instagram 167 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:27,079 Speaker 1: alongside of you Ukraine flag, and then when you leave, 168 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: the crime waves happen and you don't care at all. 169 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: And this is a good example of Chicago buck Highland Park. 170 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 1: Everybody's all up in arms over the shooting in Highland Park. 171 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: Every single weekend on average that many people get shot 172 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 1: in Chicago, and no one even blinks. It doesn't even 173 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 1: get a paragraph in the New York Times or the 174 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:53,320 Speaker 1: Washington Post. MSNBC and CNN don't talk about it at all. 175 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 1: When it impacts the white woke, everybody's like, oh my god, 176 00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 1: crime is out of control. When it impacts these inner 177 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 1: city community, nobody even blinks, and they're seeing it. We 178 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:07,839 Speaker 1: do have though more information. You know. Again, the Jose 179 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 1: Alba outcome here is the right outcome, But I think 180 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,559 Speaker 1: in some level it's almost like a brush back pitch 181 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 1: from from the dishc attorney, which is to say, he's 182 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: telling everybody. You know, if you're going to defend yourself, 183 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 1: it better be the most clear and captured on video 184 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: thing possible because if there's any race politics involved, you 185 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 1: are gonna go to prison, right, even if it is 186 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 1: a self defense case. I think that guy, instead of 187 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 1: a Hispanic guy who stabs this black guy, does, does 188 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 1: Alvin Bragg drop the charges? He might have put it 189 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 1: to a jury. I'm talking about the exact same case, 190 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: except instead of Jose Alba being I think from the 191 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:54,320 Speaker 1: Dominican Republicans, he's Hispanic, yes, yeah, uh, it's been sorry 192 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 1: BOC would say he is Latin x Yeah, Latin x uh. 193 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 1: If instead of being his Panic, if this had been 194 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 1: a white guy in the same bodega, exact same situations, 195 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 1: would Alvin Bragg have dropped the charges. Now, this is 196 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:11,240 Speaker 1: why buck justice is blind, right, because you should watch 197 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 1: the video. We're fortunate we have the video here because 198 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 1: there's no way charges would have gotten dropped. Us about 199 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 1: if this had just happened and this was based on 200 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 1: eyewitness stories, they would have this would have take they 201 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 1: would have taken this all the way. They would have. 202 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 1: They would have tried to suppress the fact that this 203 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 1: assailant was a thug with a long standing criminal record 204 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 1: who would assaulted a police officer and was out on parole. 205 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,559 Speaker 1: They would have tried to suppress that his girlfriend started 206 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 1: the fight, that his girlfriend came in and stabbed this 207 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 1: guy afterwards, that the police did not treat his cornered him. 208 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: There wouldn't have been that video that. I do hope 209 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 1: that this may be a turning point though in the 210 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 1: psychology of New Yorkers. This is my hometown. I'm sorry 211 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 1: that it has been so overrun with the woke, but 212 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 1: I hope that democrats, not even just a good faith 213 00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:01,440 Speaker 1: of sane mind, will say we have to actually have 214 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: a society of order and rule of law, or else 215 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,440 Speaker 1: which just not worth being here. Which to his credit, 216 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 1: Eric Adams and we kind of managed to mention this 217 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 1: little bit earlier, but I do think it's important. Came 218 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 1: out almost immediately and said, can you give him credit? 219 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:19,319 Speaker 1: It's the most obvious thing in the world. I watched 220 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:23,520 Speaker 1: the video, and there are buck we have to argue 221 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 1: about masks every day, and it's the most obvious thing 222 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 1: in the world. One of the challenges with Democrats right 223 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,439 Speaker 1: now is science and facts. I mean when you when 224 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 1: you say that a man could get pregnant, I mean, yeah, 225 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 1: I'm a little bit surprised that, even when you have 226 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 1: the video there, that the Democrat mayor of New York 227 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:42,560 Speaker 1: City would say this shouldn't have been charged. I mean, 228 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,680 Speaker 1: do you have confidence that Build A. Blasio would have 229 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:48,960 Speaker 1: said it that's fair? No, at the fair point. And 230 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 1: I'd also some with Eric Adams though he was elected 231 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: on I'm going to stop crying. This would have it 232 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 1: would have been the end. I don't even know if. 233 00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,080 Speaker 1: I don't think New York has a recall provision, but 234 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 1: people would have wanted to recall this mayor already if 235 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: he had said, Yeah, this guy who's just trying to 236 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 1: do his job, who's attacked over nothing, isn't allowed to 237 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 1: defend himself. You can't be the I'm going to be 238 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 1: the law and order mayor. If that's your position, no doubt. 239 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 1: And I think that's why it's so significant as you 240 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 1: break it, as you break it forward and get everything ready. 241 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 1: My Pillow is having a lot of fun with their 242 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: biggest bedsheet sale ever.

Hey, guys, 292 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 1: are you good? Oh? Yeah, I saw this morning that 293 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 1: the charges against the bodega worker were dropped. Um, and 294 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 1: that's good news. I think that's only part of the story. 295 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:33,640 Speaker 1: I had read and heard that during the incident that 296 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:38,920 Speaker 1: the girlfriend of the attacker attacked the bodega worker. That's accurate. 297 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 1: I don't know him, ye yeah, So you know, the 298 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:45,959 Speaker 1: true test for Alan Bragg will be will he charge 299 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 1: her or he did he just cow down to the 300 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:51,959 Speaker 1: It's a very fair point, Kyle. Thank you for calling in. 301 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 1: And I think the answer is I'm making a prediction here. 302 00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 1: I think Clay's with me on this. No charges against her. 303 00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,479 Speaker 1: That's not going to happen. Agree, but it's a it's 304 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 1: a good point. No one wants a summer vacation ruins, 305 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 1: you know. One of the things that can actually do that, though, 306 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,240 Speaker 1: is identity theft. A stolen credit card or a wallet, 307 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 1: or equally bad, a cyber thief planting malware on a 308 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,359 Speaker 1: credit card reader device in a store somewhere that can 309 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 1: give the bad guys all the information they need to 310 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:19,920 Speaker 1: run up your credit card balance.

And 330 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 1: yet they're intentionally not doing it. And you can't run 331 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 1: a modern economy on windmills, you just can't do it. 332 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:25,119 Speaker 1: So we do a lot of solar in Florida. It 333 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 1: is a compliment. It does not displace the traditional forms 334 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:31,120 Speaker 1: of energy. And so now we're in a situation they're 335 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:33,680 Speaker 1: bragging that gas has gone down over the last half 336 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:36,680 Speaker 1: many weeks, it's still over four bucks, Like I had 337 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 1: never seen it over four bucks on my whole life 338 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 1: living here. That is the problem. It's just when you're 339 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:46,119 Speaker 1: cranking the printing presses, you're making energy more expensive. You know, 340 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: that creates an upward pressure on all of this stuff. Everything. 341 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 1: The Governor of Florida, Rhnda Santis said, there is correct, 342 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 1: And on top of that, what is the Democrat response. 343 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 1: I mean, it's remarkable. You've seen the fist bump in 344 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,679 Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia and they could say, oh, that's just about optics, 345 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 1: and at least it wasn't a high five. But going 346 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 1: to the Saudis to ask them to produce more oil 347 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:17,119 Speaker 1: when the Biden White House has said they're going to 348 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 1: use the Defense Production Act for solar panels but still 349 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:25,440 Speaker 1: don't want you. You will never hear them say drill, baby, drill. 350 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 1: You will never hear Democrats in office now say you 351 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,920 Speaker 1: know what, maybe in ten years will have a different situation. 352 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 1: But for right now, what's best for us, for economy 353 00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 1: and yes, for national security, for geopolitics globally, would be 354 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 1: to produce as much domestic energy, oil and gas as 355 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: we possibly can. They will not say this. They think 356 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 1: it's ikey. They think it's a moral question, not an 357 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 1: energy question. They believe this hysteria about the world that's 358 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 1: going to end if we don't, you know, go back 359 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,399 Speaker 1: and watch. I invite anybody, although I don't want you 360 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:04,879 Speaker 1: to give any more money to him. He's such a 361 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 1: fraud and an imbecile. But you go back and watch 362 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 1: the Al Gore movie An Inconvenient Truth, the most successful 363 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 1: financially documentary. It's an editorial but documentary of all time. 364 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 1: And the Florida's underwater in like twenty thirty, the whole 365 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:22,720 Speaker 1: state they have these these people are out of their minds. 366 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 1: This is back fifteen years ago now. But everything they 367 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 1: say doesn't happen. They want you to forget all about it. 368 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 1: And here is biden economic advisor, Jared Bernstein, and let 369 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 1: you know, Oh, there's an executive order coming, not on 370 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: making oil and gas production at home easier and cheaper 371 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 1: for all of us, but on climate The President will 372 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 1: aggressively fight to attack climate change because he knows it's 373 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 1: one of the reasons he's here, and it is absolutely 374 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,679 Speaker 1: core to transitioning from where we are to where we 375 00:21:56,720 --> 00:22:00,400 Speaker 1: need to be. Clay, they're out of their minds. If 376 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 1: we had an honest media, and we all know we don't, 377 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:06,280 Speaker 1: and I don't know if you saw the Pew research 378 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:10,360 Speaker 1: data reflecting how little trust there is in the media 379 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 1: in general, television and newspapers in particular, But if we 380 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 1: had an honest media, when Joe Biden walked out and 381 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:21,119 Speaker 1: fist bumped NBS and went in for that meeting. In 382 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia, everyone would have stood up and said to 383 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 1: Joe Biden, wait a minute, sir, why did you get 384 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 1: on Air Force one, fly all the way across the country, 385 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:35,199 Speaker 1: all the way across the world, spend god knows how 386 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 1: much on greenhouse gas emissions to get here and then 387 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 1: beg basically on bended knee for Saudi Arabia to produce 388 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 1: more oil and gas instead of us being energy independent. 389 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 1: Sarah Palin was one hundred percent right when she said, drill, baby, drill. 390 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,719 Speaker 1: Instead of us being energy independent and keeping the tens 391 00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:59,439 Speaker 1: of billions, the hundreds of billions of dollars that you 392 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:01,959 Speaker 1: could make of oil and gas, we're giving all that 393 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:06,120 Speaker 1: money to Saudi Arabia or run by Default or Venezuela, 394 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:08,400 Speaker 1: and eventually when Russia and the war in Ukraine back 395 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 1: to Russia, all of these places are getting our money. 396 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:17,359 Speaker 1: And if you're truly concerned about the climate, the oil 397 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:20,200 Speaker 1: and gas produced in Saudi Arabia is actually dirtier than 398 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: the oil and gas that is produced in the United States. 399 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 1: So we're ending up with the same amount of demand 400 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 1: for oil and gas, but you're somehow arguing that the 401 00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:34,879 Speaker 1: United States is not complicit because we're bringing it from 402 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,479 Speaker 1: somewhere else. Somebody would just ask about that hypocrisy. Almost 403 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 1: no one does. And Saudi is still a totalitarian, fundamentalist theocracy. 404 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 1: Everybody that hasn't actually changed. So you know, we don't 405 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:48,880 Speaker 1: focus on it as much because we're not at war 406 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:50,919 Speaker 1: in the Middle East the way we had been for 407 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 1: a couple of decades. But this is not a country 408 00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:55,879 Speaker 1: we really want to make richer. It's actually not in 409 00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 1: the interests of the world to have Saudi have more 410 00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 1: influent in geopolitics. There have been some moderating influences in 411 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 1: recent years in Saudi. The move toward Israel has been 412 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:11,160 Speaker 1: a good thing. There are some things that are moving 413 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 1: in the right direction, but you know, we still don't 414 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 1: really want to be making the Saudi's as rich as possible, 415 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,919 Speaker 1: and not just the saut the Russians. Price of gas 416 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,200 Speaker 1: is high. It's good for the Russians. Price of gas 417 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 1: is high. It's even good in Venezuela and for the 418 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 1: Maduro regime. As much as they've destroyed their own domestic production, 419 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 1: they still are able to produce a lot of oil 420 00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 1: that props up that regime. But Clay, we have to 421 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 1: remember that for climate change catastrophists, I mean for the 422 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:42,440 Speaker 1: true believers here, they'll believe anything and nothing is too stupid, 423 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:45,080 Speaker 1: and in fact, no person is too stupid for them 424 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:49,159 Speaker 1: to take advice from. Here is with a few million 425 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 1: viewers a day, the view joy behar explaining to the 426 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 1: viewers of that monumentally stupid show. I mean the show 427 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:01,359 Speaker 1: should come with a warning. By the end of this program, 428 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 1: your IQ will have dropped ten to fifteen points. Here 429 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:08,879 Speaker 1: she is saying, if only we could get less gas 430 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 1: and less gas and oil production used in America, then 431 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,480 Speaker 1: we wouldn't have to ask the Saudies for it. Well, 432 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 1: let's not forget that Trump was pals with Putin and 433 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:23,680 Speaker 1: Kim John practically had them in the Lincoln bedroom. I mean, 434 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 1: he was really interested in being with those guys. So 435 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:30,119 Speaker 1: this is just somebody I think. I mean, I do 436 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 1: defend Biden quite a bit, I know, but it's like, 437 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:36,919 Speaker 1: you know, if Mansion and some of these Republicans would 438 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 1: allow the industries just cut back on fossil fuels to 439 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 1: get alternative fuels going, he wouldn't have to you know, 440 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,560 Speaker 1: fist bump this guy who, by the way, he did 441 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:49,679 Speaker 1: say to him, I think that you were responsible for 442 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:55,639 Speaker 1: Kashogi's death and the guy goes now pathetic. But if 443 00:25:56,000 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 1: if Republicans would let industry, let them cut back on 444 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 1: fossil fuels, they're desperate for cheaper fossil fuels, You monumental moron. 445 00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 1: It's unbelievable that this stuff is said on television. She 446 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 1: is the dumbest person on television. I will say one 447 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:17,040 Speaker 1: positive thing about Joy Behart. I didn't realize she's seventy 448 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:20,719 Speaker 1: nine years old. She is. I thought she was maybe, 449 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 1: you know, seventies. She looks seventy nine. I'm gonna be 450 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,199 Speaker 1: kind to Joy Behart. I didn't know she was almost 451 00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 1: eighty years old. She's Joe Biden's age, and as little 452 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,639 Speaker 1: sense as she makes on television, she makes more sense 453 00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 1: on television than Joe Biden does. And unlike Joe Biden, 454 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 1: she's just sitting on the dumbest show on television as 455 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 1: opposed to trying to lead the free world. And so 456 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 1: all of this is embarrassingly dumb on behalf of Biden. 457 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 1: But the fact that the media doesn't call him on 458 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:58,439 Speaker 1: it Buck is what infuriates me far more because the 459 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 1: fact that he gets on the the air force one 460 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 1: flies over to Saudi Arabia and begs for more oil. 461 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,879 Speaker 1: They are the best of the bad options. Venezuela is 462 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:12,600 Speaker 1: an awful option. Certainly Iran is an awful option. And uh, 463 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:14,679 Speaker 1: and we can't even get Russian oil right now. The 464 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,920 Speaker 1: problem with the petro dictator states is none of them 465 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 1: are particularly embracing human rights. MBS has done a better job. 466 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 1: Women can drive cars now in Saudi Arabia, they have 467 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:27,440 Speaker 1: movie theaters that people can go watch movies. And I mean, 468 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 1: to your point on the theocratic state, there's a big 469 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:36,159 Speaker 1: difference oftentimes between the rights that exist even in Saudi Arabia, 470 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 1: which is considered to be an enlightened Middle Eastern country, 471 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 1: and many others out there. I don't know if enlightened 472 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,399 Speaker 1: Middle Eastern country, I mean in the I mean they're not. 473 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 1: I wouldn't go that far. Just the conversation for another time. Yeah, 474 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:54,159 Speaker 1: I'm the standard is low, but when you know, for 475 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:57,240 Speaker 1: a long time you had to they wouldn't even let 476 00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:00,439 Speaker 1: women in Iran go watch soccer matches, right, I mean 477 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:02,480 Speaker 1: the standard is so low that it's like, hey, you 478 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 1: let women drive cars and go to Moroccos. These are 479 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 1: more more enlightened. Yeah, yes, uh well, you're the expert 480 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:13,199 Speaker 1: on the Middle East. My point is they're better than 481 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,400 Speaker 1: they used to be. And for these countries that have 482 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 1: massive deposits of oil, I think they're the best of 483 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 1: the bad option. Venezuela's got basically the communist dictatorship. They've 484 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:26,200 Speaker 1: lost their minds. They have no idea what's going on there. 485 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:30,080 Speaker 1: Uh Iran is about to have nuclear weapons, and maybe 486 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:33,120 Speaker 1: who knows what's gonna they got putin visiting right now. 487 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,720 Speaker 1: We deal with Saudi because we have to deal with 488 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 1: Saudi on oil and also on geopolitics in the Middle East. 489 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 1: There's no going around Saudi because of oil and also 490 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 1: because it is the site of Mecca, and so the 491 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 1: the the importance of Saudi Arabia to the region, um 492 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 1: politically and to the world and an oil sense means 493 00:28:56,280 --> 00:29:00,160 Speaker 1: we want to have as productive a relationship with them 494 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,959 Speaker 1: as we can. We're just not gonna get, you know, 495 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 1: Jeffersonian democracy breaking out tomorrow. The better option here would 496 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 1: be if Biden from the get go had not tried 497 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 1: to turn them into a pariah state and had acknowledged, Look, 498 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 1: there are lots of things that are going on in 499 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:17,120 Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia we disagree with. We don't need to try 500 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:20,200 Speaker 1: to isolate them forever. That was just bluster from bias. 501 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 1: That was just, Oh, I got a moment where I'm 502 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 1: gonna get all the blue check liabs to say I'm smart. 503 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 1: And then he's like, oh, wait, I'm not smart. Well, 504 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 1: And he also didn't anticipate that we would end up 505 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 1: with the highest gas prices of all time and that 506 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 1: because of his choices that he had made in the 507 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 1: United States, we wouldn't be able to produce enough oil 508 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:38,240 Speaker 1: and gas. And again, the best of the bad options 509 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:39,880 Speaker 1: has been in the need of Saudi Arabia just not 510 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 1: a good one.

Buck, I thought you would enjoy 536 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 1: this news. I flagged it to hit here. Bill de Blasio, 537 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:28,760 Speaker 1: your former mayor of New York City, we just talked 538 00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 1: about him a little bit in an association with the 539 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:36,600 Speaker 1: situation with jose Alba. He is running for Congress. Remember 540 00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:38,960 Speaker 1: he initially ran for president, then he was going to 541 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:42,120 Speaker 1: run for governor or whatever else. Nobody wants him to 542 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:45,640 Speaker 1: run for anything. A new poll, there are a lot 543 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 1: people running in this district, the tenth district of New 544 00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 1: York City and New York's tenth congressional district. He is 545 00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:01,600 Speaker 1: right now in seventh place in the House district, and 546 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:05,880 Speaker 1: the most recent poll had him getting three percent of 547 00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 1: the vote. This, I mean, that's pretty incredible for a 548 00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:11,680 Speaker 1: guy who was the mayor for as long as he is, 549 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 1: to know him as well as they do, and for 550 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 1: only three percent of voters to be willing to vote 551 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 1: for him in Congress. He inherited as mayor a New 552 00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 1: York City that was the safest, cleanest, and most prosperous 553 00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:34,480 Speaker 1: it had been in decades, and managed, over the course 554 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:38,720 Speaker 1: of his time in office to turn it in every 555 00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:41,760 Speaker 1: way in the wrong direction, to make it the most 556 00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:45,720 Speaker 1: miserable place to be during COVID, to make it a 557 00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:53,840 Speaker 1: high a rising crime, rising poverty, dirty streets mess. And 558 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 1: it was really almost like he was doing this intentionally. 559 00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:59,240 Speaker 1: I mean, he thought we deserved it or something to 560 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:03,560 Speaker 1: have been. So first of all, he's lazy, he's reckless, 561 00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 1: and he is destructive. So the fact, the truth is 562 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 1: that anybody who voted for him, and very few New 563 00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:14,680 Speaker 1: Yorkers people forget this, he got like twenty percent of 564 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 1: the vote. I mean, very few people even wanted him 565 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 1: in New York City to be mayor. But because the 566 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 1: way the election worked here, he destroyed. He destroyed the 567 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 1: progress the city had made and sent it to hurdling 568 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 1: in the wrong direction. So, I mean, the fact that 569 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:32,280 Speaker 1: anybody would vote for him for Congress makes me question 570 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:34,920 Speaker 1: that person insanity. Anyone who would have cast a vote 571 00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 1: for even a Deblasio family member voting for him, I'd 572 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: be like, maybe we should have you checked out. There's 573 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:42,920 Speaker 1: some primaries going on today as well, where it'll be 574 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:45,239 Speaker 1: interesting to see exactly how these shake out. But I 575 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:47,680 Speaker 1: just I you know, I'm a pole nerd, so I 576 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 1: love looking at the latest data there and effectively, Deblasio 577 00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:59,160 Speaker 1: appears to be ending his career on this run for 578 00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 1: a Congression seat, and I'm not sure we've ever seen 579 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:05,080 Speaker 1: anything like this where it means a two term mayor 580 00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:08,000 Speaker 1: and he can't even get elected to a congressional seat 581 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 1: now from the New York City area. To hang himself 582 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:15,120 Speaker 1: in this way is kind of unprecedented. I just hope 583 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:18,960 Speaker 1: that people the agreement we used to have, I thought 584 00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:20,759 Speaker 1: in New York, and I think this is probably true 585 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:24,120 Speaker 1: in a lot of other cities, was we can argue 586 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 1: about the national political stuff. You can be Democrats when 587 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:29,720 Speaker 1: it comes to you know, the border, when it comes 588 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 1: to you know, abortion, when it comes to things that 589 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:36,040 Speaker 1: are national political issues. But when it comes to crime, 590 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:42,080 Speaker 1: clean streets and a functioning, you know, functioning subway, functioning city, 591 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:44,880 Speaker 1: we can all agree that we want the same things 592 00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 1: on that at least right. And that's what at the 593 00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 1: local level, that's what you're really dealing with. Deblasio broke that. 594 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 1: Deblasio managed to go so hard left and to elevate 595 00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:59,560 Speaker 1: so many of the wrong ideas. And he's not the 596 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:01,800 Speaker 1: only I mean, you see this, it's true in Chicago 597 00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:03,840 Speaker 1: to I'm sure the people of Chicago would like crime 598 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:06,239 Speaker 1: to drop there. I'm sure the people of Houston would 599 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:08,960 Speaker 1: like to see their crime numbers turn in the other direction. 600 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:12,520 Speaker 1: Wokeness ruins everything it touches. Man, You talk about the 601 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:18,080 Speaker 1: bidas touch with Joe Biden. Wokeness is a corrosive ideology 602 00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:22,719 Speaker 1: that can destroy any city, any state, any country. And 603 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,720 Speaker 1: the problem, Yeah, you're one hundred percent right about wokeness 604 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:28,120 Speaker 1: destroying everything it touches. And I think the Bidas touch 605 00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:32,640 Speaker 1: is certainly infected by wokeness. But you look at the 606 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 1: major American cities right now. I know la is about 607 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:37,160 Speaker 1: to have a mayor's race, which is going to be 608 00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:40,880 Speaker 1: pretty significant, but Lori Lightfoot might be the worst mayor 609 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:43,319 Speaker 1: in the history of Chicago. I think many people who 610 00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:46,200 Speaker 1: are listening to us in the Chicago area cannot pick 611 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:49,480 Speaker 1: somewhere where things would theoretically be worse than what she 612 00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:53,360 Speaker 1: has done. De Blasio worst mayor probably in the history 613 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:56,439 Speaker 1: of New York City, certainly in the modern history. And 614 00:35:56,640 --> 00:36:00,800 Speaker 1: have there been any lessons learned about how off those 615 00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:05,440 Speaker 1: choices have truly been? Not really. It feels like a 616 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 1: lot of the decisions are being doubled down on. But 617 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 1: at least de Blasio personally is potentially having his political 618 00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 1: career in. This is a guy who went from running 619 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,680 Speaker 1: for president a couple of years ago to now not 620 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:20,440 Speaker 1: even being able to be elected theoretically from a New 621 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:23,319 Speaker 1: York City Area Congressional District. A couple of clips are 622 00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:24,879 Speaker 1: going to play with you in the third hour here 623 00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:27,880 Speaker 1: that I think are going to blow your mind. Kamala 624 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:33,960 Speaker 1: Harris Words Smith Savant has argued that abortion is not 625 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:37,760 Speaker 1: allowing abortion as the equivalent of slavery, and Rachel Levine, 626 00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:42,440 Speaker 1: transgender activist inside of the Biden White House, wants to 627 00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:47,040 Speaker 1: empower kids to change their gender. Both of these clips 628 00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:49,960 Speaker 1: I think are going to blow people's mind. Blockers and 629 00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 1: sex change operations for kids. That's the Biden Lighthouse. Everybody sleeve. 630 00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:01,200 Speaker 1: Travis and Buck sexes on the front lines of truth. 631 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:07,719 Speaker 1: M
