1 00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:03,520 Speaker 1: You're in the freedom height. Thanks for listening to The 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:06,600 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show podcast to get the latest from Buck 3 00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:11,680 Speaker 1: at buck Sexton dot com. I've been right about Faucci 4 00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:14,760 Speaker 1: the whole time. You know that. I know that, and 5 00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:16,760 Speaker 1: it's good to be right, But in this case, I 6 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:19,440 Speaker 1: wish I had been wrong because of what it has 7 00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:22,280 Speaker 1: meant for the country. So many people have been holding 8 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:25,360 Speaker 1: this guy up as though he's the great hero of 9 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:28,000 Speaker 1: the pandemic. What we're going to find out is that Faucci, 10 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 1: based on the truth, based on facts and numbers and reality, 11 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:38,519 Speaker 1: Faucci is somebody that is worse in how he responded 12 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:41,080 Speaker 1: to the pandemic than even Cuomo and knew some of 13 00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 1: some of these idiot governors that did a terrible job. 14 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:47,560 Speaker 1: We'll get to that, but you know, Flag season is here, folks, 15 00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 1: and I've been telling you about our friends at Allegiance 16 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 1: Flag Supply, a great American small business where the founders 17 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 1: started the company because they were tired of buying American 18 00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 1: flags that got tangled up and just worn out really 19 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 1: quickly when they're out on display, and they really believe 20 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 1: strongly that the American flag should be made here in America. 21 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: You might be saying to yourself, A flag is a flag, 22 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,120 Speaker 1: isn't it? Buck? No, my friends, if you've had an 23 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 1: American flag in front of your house and you've ever 24 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 1: experienced the constant tangling around poles or the quick deterioration 25 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:22,200 Speaker 1: because of wind, rain, sun, this is where American flags 26 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:25,920 Speaker 1: from Allegiance Flag Supply stand out.

I highly recommend 46 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 1: you dive into some of them yourself if you get 47 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 1: a moment, or just listen to this show, I'll do 48 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 1: it for you because what you'll see is a lot 49 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 1: of what we've been told, including by Fauci himself, from 50 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:50,799 Speaker 1: the beginning of the pandemic, was not really reflective of 51 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: the conversation going on behind the scenes. A lot of 52 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 1: what was going on here involved things like telling colleagues 53 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:04,800 Speaker 1: that retail masks don't really do very much if anything. 54 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: He was aware there was a possible lab leak. There 55 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: was some talk of gain and function possibility in terms 56 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 1: of the lab leak theory. Son, here's an example. You know, now, 57 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 1: the truth starts to come out over a year into 58 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,920 Speaker 1: this pandemic of the guy who was elevated to be 59 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 1: essentially in charge without any meaningful oversight, without anybody being 60 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 1: able to say, hold on a second, who is this 61 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: little clown. You know here I am. I'm I'm just 62 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:41,120 Speaker 1: a humble doctor who happens to have almost stalin like 63 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 1: authority overall of American society. And you know, maybe I 64 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 1: have to be on the cover of in Style magazine. 65 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 1: Maybe I've got to have a book deal, which we 66 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 1: now know he's got a book coming out as well, 67 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 1: Expect the Unexpected. Isn't it such a clever title? I 68 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 1: come up with all the best things, all the best titles. 69 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: This is an email in February of twenty twenty that 70 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 1: I think you should you should know about. This is 71 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 1: this is real Freedom of Information Act request from Anthony 72 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: Fauci National Institute of Health. And it's to a woman 73 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: named Silvia. And here's what he says, Sylvia. Quote. Masks 74 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 1: are really for infected people to prevent them from spreading 75 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 1: infection of people who are not infected, rather than protecting 76 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,840 Speaker 1: uninfected people from acquiring infection. The typical mask you buy 77 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,600 Speaker 1: in the drug store is not really effective in keeping 78 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: out virus, which is small enough to pass through material. 79 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:46,159 Speaker 1: It might provide some slim benefit in keeping out droplet droplets. 80 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 1: If someone coughs or sneezes on you, I do not 81 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 1: recommend that you wear a mask, particularly since you are 82 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:56,600 Speaker 1: going to a very low risk location. I'm sorry. Does 83 00:04:56,640 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 1: that Does that seem like what we've been told along 84 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 1: here about this? Does that seem like what the storyline 85 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:08,919 Speaker 1: has been Ah, it's small enough. The virus is small 86 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 1: enough to pass through the mask material. This is from 87 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 1: doctor Anthony Fauci in February of twenty twenty. If you've 88 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 1: said that at any point in the past year, a 89 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: guy's the virus just goes through this mesh, it doesn't 90 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:26,920 Speaker 1: actually protect you to wear this mask. And ninety five 91 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 1: masks give some protection. And I've always said that, but 92 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:37,840 Speaker 1: cloth masks, bandannas handkerchiefs a joke, absurd. That's what Fouci 93 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 1: was saying. But you weren't allowed to say this before. 94 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: In fact, Harvard epidemiologist Martin Coldorf I believe is his name, 95 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: had his account on Twitter suspend it for saying that 96 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 1: masks really don't do very much. You weren't allowed to 97 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 1: say this. There are so many of these emails that 98 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 1: I think are important for you to see. Here's one 99 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 1: this comes from. This is a tweet from Sarah Westwood 100 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 1: at the DC examiner Peter Dazak, who is deeply involved 101 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: both in Wuhan coronavirus research and in missing in the 102 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,279 Speaker 1: public about the likelihood of a lab league, thanked Fauci 103 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:22,280 Speaker 1: for helping dispel the myths around COVID origins and blamed 104 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 1: Fox News for targeting his grants. It's it's amazing, isn't it, 105 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: it says from Anthony Fauci to Peter Dazak Tony, as 106 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: the R zero one grant publicly targeted by Fox News 107 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 1: reporters at the presidential press briefing last night. I just 108 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: wanted to say a personal thank you on behalf of 109 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,359 Speaker 1: our staff and collaborators for standing up and stating that 110 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:54,720 Speaker 1: the scientific evidence supports a natural origin for COVID nineteen 111 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:58,479 Speaker 1: from a bat to human spillover, not a lab release. So, 112 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,040 Speaker 1: you know, thanks so much, Fauci, those bad people at 113 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 1: Fox News. This is what's going on behind the scenes. 114 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: These are the actual conversations that are going on. These 115 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 1: are the things that are determining health policy. But here's 116 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 1: my favorite of all these emails. I mean, certainly the 117 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: mask thing the science. You gotta listen to the science, 118 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: Fauci says, you have to mask up. Here's one from 119 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 1: Christian Anderson on Friday, February thirty first, twenty twenty, to 120 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: doctor Anthony Fauci. He writes, Hi, Tony, Yes, I saw 121 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: this earlier, and both Eddie and myself are quoted in it. 122 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: It's a great article. The problem is our phylogenetic analyzes 123 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: aren't able to answer whether the sequences are unusual at 124 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 1: individual residues, except if they are completely off on a 125 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 1: philogenetic tree. The virus looks totally normal, and the close 126 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 1: clustering with bats suggest that bats serve as the reservoir. 127 00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: The unusual features of the virus make up a really 128 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 1: small part of the genome genome, so one has to 129 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: look really closely at all the sequences to see that 130 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 1: some of the features potentially look engineered. Oh so this 131 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: was in January of twenty twenty. Some aspects of the virus, 132 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: according to a top researcher here, did look like they 133 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: had been engineered. But how is it that we had 134 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 1: a whole year of being told it was a conspiracy theory? 135 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,319 Speaker 1: How is it that we spend all of this time 136 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 1: being led to believe that anybody who had questions about 137 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 1: mask effectiveness, Remember You weren't even allowed to say things 138 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,720 Speaker 1: like masks barely work if they work at all, which 139 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 1: is obviously true. Oh no, they work, Fauci says, they work. Okay, 140 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 1: how many times did I ask you on this show 141 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 1: how well do they work? If they can't tell you, 142 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: then where is the science they're basing this on. If 143 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 1: they're guessing if it's a good instinct, that's not the 144 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 1: same as being able to prove it. That's not the 145 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:12,560 Speaker 1: same as scientific fact. That's where so much of this 146 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 1: just falls apart. That's where it becomes so very clear 147 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 1: that there was a lot of politics involved in these decisions. 148 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 1: This was not a straightforward situation. This was not just 149 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: whatever the science said. That's that's what was relayed to 150 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:37,719 Speaker 1: the public. Enormously consequential and highly politicized decision making from 151 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 1: doctor Fauci. And another part of this that I think 152 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 1: is so interesting is all the emails you see in 153 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:47,560 Speaker 1: which Fauci's talking about you know, this celebrity or that 154 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 1: media outlet wants to do a profile on him, wants 155 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:53,080 Speaker 1: to do an interview with him, wants and we know 156 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 1: this guy loved it because he's on TV every five 157 00:09:55,480 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 1: minutes vanity is a human constant. Unfortunately, scientists are no 158 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 1: way immune to it, and in fact, many scientists, I 159 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 1: think are more susceptible to it because they've gone through most, 160 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 1: if not all, of their lives being nerds who don't 161 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 1: get the appreciation they deserve, at least in their own minds. 162 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:18,839 Speaker 1: So the moment that they get a taste of fame, 163 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: the moment they have power, you expect that, because they're scientists, 164 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 1: they're going to wield that judiciously. Of course, not some will, 165 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 1: very few will. Most would be just like Fauci, someone 166 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 1: who all of a sudden found himself going from really 167 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 1: unremarkable bureaucrat to the most powerful and recognizable person in 168 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:46,320 Speaker 1: America with the possible exception of Donald Trump when he 169 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 1: was president, and even that sometimes felt like Fauci, Fauci 170 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 1: was able to override him. Fauci was critical in delivering 171 00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 1: the presidency to Joe Biden. So he is certainly a 172 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,000 Speaker 1: hero to the left. But when you look at the 173 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 1: email correspondence, when you have a better understanding of who 174 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 1: this guy is, you can see that he was part 175 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 1: of crafting a narrative. It was not all about facts, 176 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 1: It was not all about science, and they hid a 177 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 1: lot of this from their In their discussions in front 178 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:20,839 Speaker 1: of the public and in the pronouncements from on high, 179 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 1: they got a lot wrong, and they hit a lot 180 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: when it came to information that went against their so 181 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:31,640 Speaker 1: called consensus. Fauci should be held to account for this, 182 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 1: but you know it will end up happening. He will 183 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 1: go off into the sunset, rich and famous and a 184 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 1: hero to Democrats because they take care of their ideological warriors. 185 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 1: And that's exactly what Fauci has been, a failure in 186 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 1: the pandemic, a failure to keep American safe and to 187 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 1: speak difficult truths and to take unpopular but scientifically based positions. No, 188 00:11:55,880 --> 00:12:00,200 Speaker 1: he did what the left Democrat mob, what the collectives, 189 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 1: what the quadruple maskers wanted him to do, at every 190 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 1: step of the way. Good for Fauci, bad for America. 191 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 1: And that's what you see in these emails. And yes, 192 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people have egg on their face. 193 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,200 Speaker 1: This was an idea that it was first put forward 194 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 1: by Mike Pompeio, Secretary of State Donald Trump. And look, 195 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 1: some things may be true even if Donald Trump said them, 196 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 1: and there was because Trump was saying so much else 197 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,320 Speaker 1: that was just out of control. And because he was, 198 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 1: you know, making a frankly racist appeal talking about kung 199 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 1: flu and the China virus, his notion that put forward 200 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 1: that this may have or that he said flatly that 201 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,840 Speaker 1: this came from that lab, was widely dismissed. But actually 202 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 1: there's some real reason. We don't know. By the way, 203 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,080 Speaker 1: we still don't know. We absolutely don't know. But now 204 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: serious people are saying and he's a serious inquiry. Wow, 205 00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 1: serious people. Huh, serious people were saying it all along. 206 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:04,840 Speaker 1: But he lets you in there. That's I don't know. 207 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 1: ABC News is Jonathan Carl formerly a Fox News I 208 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 1: believe he let you in on what the corporate media's 209 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,680 Speaker 1: secret is here, not really much of a secret. They 210 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 1: were opposed to this because Trump was for this. They 211 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 1: were opposed to this because it was damaging to Donald 212 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 1: Trump to have the whole media saying he lies, he's lying, 213 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 1: he's wrong. It didn't come from a lab. So that 214 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:38,200 Speaker 1: was their motivation, the truth being accurate. And this is 215 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 1: not a thing of minor consequence. Don't you think it's 216 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:46,199 Speaker 1: important to know? Isn't isn't the ultimate test and trace 217 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 1: finding out where this outbreak began and how it happened. 218 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 1: Isn't that more important than any other test and trace 219 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 1: we can really do? How can you prevent the next 220 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 1: outbreak if you don't know where this one came from 221 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 1: or what happened. Ah? Yes, this does really matter, doesn't 222 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:07,440 Speaker 1: It's It's not just something that you can cast aside 223 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 1: as scoring political points. But there's another part of this 224 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 1: that I find so curious and people are catching onto this. 225 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 1: We're also told that there was a opposition to the 226 00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 1: lab league theory because of concerns of racism, that if 227 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 1: the virus escape from a Chinese lab, there would be 228 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 1: more racism against Chinese people, Chinese Americans, Asian Americans, whatever, 229 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: that everybody in the AAPI community would be at greater risk. 230 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 1: Journals really believe this. But to give you a sense 231 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 1: of how superficial they're thinking is journos believe this without 232 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 1: stopping to think. Hold on a second, why is it 233 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 1: gonna create racist backlash if people think that this happened 234 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 1: as a result of scientific experiments in a lab. But 235 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,640 Speaker 1: not if people believe, as was the official narrative for 236 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 1: almost a year, that we had millions of people die 237 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 1: and billions of people infected because some Chinese guys were 238 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 1: drinking bat soup or eating pangol and kebabs. Why why 239 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 1: would one result in racism but the other would not. 240 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 1: I'm just that the thinking here doesn't seem to make 241 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 1: any sense, does it. I think it's much more It's 242 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 1: much easier to wrap your head around an accident at 243 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 1: a lab then it is for people to think, oh, well, 244 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 1: if people in China want to just eat exotic pets 245 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 1: in highly unsanitary conditions in these markets, you know that's fine, 246 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 1: that's a cultural tradition or whatever. No, this never made sense, 247 00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 1: this theory or this this approach to it. But this 248 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 1: is This is what they've said. And there's serious argument 249 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 1: out there right now that when we look further into this, 250 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 1: we're going to find that there was human recklessness, not 251 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 1: just human error, but human recklessness at the very heart 252 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 1: of the COVID pandemic. Think about what that will do. 253 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 1: You want to talk about losing faith in institutions, I've 254 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:26,000 Speaker 1: already lost a lot of faith in the bureaucratic medical 255 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 1: institutions out there, places like the CDC and the NIH. 256 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 1: I've lost faith in anybody who's a Blue Check MD, 257 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 1: who's been out there cheerleading for lockdowns and masks all 258 00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 1: along because other people were saying so, and then the 259 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 1: moment that there were BLM protests, it all changed. Well, 260 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 1: BLM protests are about saving lives, so we got to 261 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 1: have those, even though we're at the time they were 262 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 1: saying human gatherings of any kind were completely unsafe. Lives 263 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 1: at stake. That's what they told us. But what you've 264 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 1: seen here as well is that there's a final recognition 265 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:11,440 Speaker 1: among anybody who is paying attention that there's a mass 266 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 1: mental illness from COVID, that there is a pandemic PTSD, 267 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:25,360 Speaker 1: there's COVID nineteen derangement syndrome from people that have never 268 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 1: been sick, and many of them are vaccinated, and they 269 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 1: still go around acting like they should be absolutely terrified 270 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 1: of this. And I see this here in New York City. 271 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 1: I see it every day. There are still countless people 272 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 1: walking along the streets who are massed up outside. So 273 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 1: if they're worried about the virus, I have to assume 274 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:55,400 Speaker 1: they're vaccinated. And if they're vaccinated and outside alone, walking 275 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 1: in fresh air and worried about this virus, they really 276 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:03,680 Speaker 1: should be worried about a piano falling off a rooftop 277 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 1: because the movers made a mistake somewhere and crushing them 278 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:12,000 Speaker 1: like a cartoon character. Because it's about that risky. I 279 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:15,159 Speaker 1: cannot guarantee you that if you walk down the streets 280 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 1: of New York City, a brick won't fall off the 281 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 1: facade and hit you in the head. I can't guarantee 282 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:25,120 Speaker 1: you that a a moving company isn't going to let 283 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 1: a piano slip out the window and crush you. But 284 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:32,679 Speaker 1: I know that you shouldn't worry about that. I know 285 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 1: that if you go through your life with that concern, 286 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:38,480 Speaker 1: you're just really stealing from yourself. And it's even worse 287 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:43,480 Speaker 1: because these panicked lockdowners also want to steal from you. 288 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:46,399 Speaker 1: They want to steal your time, your peace of mind, 289 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:52,120 Speaker 1: your productivity. This all comes with a cost. Doctor Scott Atlas, 290 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:55,920 Speaker 1: formerly of the Trump COVID Task Force, had this to say, 291 00:18:56,000 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 1: play as far as I know, there's no evid that 292 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 1: the vaccines don't cover the variance. I think even doctor 293 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:08,119 Speaker 1: Fauci said that, you know, so, I think there's a 294 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 1: lot of issues here. We're not going to go for 295 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:14,920 Speaker 1: a zero COVID world or a zero risk world. If 296 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 1: we do, then you better live in your lock your 297 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:20,760 Speaker 1: doors and never come out again. I mean, that's just 298 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 1: fear irrational and in fact, the fear, the fear inciting 299 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 1: fear in search of zero COVID risk is so harmful 300 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:33,679 Speaker 1: and it just indicates so many things wrong, including it 301 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:38,119 Speaker 1: totally undermines the trust in public health leadership. And this 302 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 1: has really been devastating to that I'm not sure what's 303 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:45,560 Speaker 1: going to happen the next time we need experts. It's 304 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 1: all true. People should have tremendous skepticism about anyone who 305 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 1: holds themselves up as a as a public health expert 306 00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:00,440 Speaker 1: based on what we've seen. This is one of the 307 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 1: legacies of Fauciism, those who come forward who say they 308 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:09,159 Speaker 1: know and they don't know. They say it's science, and 309 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:11,479 Speaker 1: it's really not. And then we find out what they 310 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 1: call science as actually politics that has a substantial impact. 311 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 1: That's a reminder to everyone you better beware when someone 312 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 1: accumulates too much power and has no accountability. Just because 313 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:28,879 Speaker 1: they wear a lab coat doesn't mean it's all going 314 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 1: to be just fine.

Terrorism. 336 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:09,400 Speaker 1: You've got to be on the lookout for it all 337 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 1: the time. It's all over the place any moment. Now, Now, 338 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:18,920 Speaker 1: are there white supremacists? Yes? Are there white supremacist terrorists? Yes? 339 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 1: Are they really a threat worthy of the kind of 340 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 1: attention and focus that they get from the Biden administration, 341 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 1: from the current federal government, from this regime, No, they 342 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 1: are not. Why do they focus so much on this 343 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:48,120 Speaker 1: because it creates a climate of of weaponized association of sorts. Right, 344 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:53,119 Speaker 1: you weaponize the fact that there are right wingers who 345 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: are in some way connected through this tenuous ideological thread 346 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:06,200 Speaker 1: to some of the extreme far right white nationalist types 347 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 1: out there. Right, they say, well, you're on the right. 348 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 1: So this is basically saying, well, if you're a mainstream 349 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 1: Democrat who's been voting Democrat for fifty years, and you know, 350 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:20,119 Speaker 1: you're a union worker in Ohio who's Catholic and votes Democrat, 351 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:23,439 Speaker 1: you're the same as an antifa lunatic who tries to 352 00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:26,679 Speaker 1: burn down at federal courthouse or burned down at church, right, 353 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 1: the exact same thing. That's what they try to do. 354 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 1: They try to paint with this intentionally the broadest possible 355 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 1: brush and sweep everybody in the right in this morally 356 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:44,199 Speaker 1: evil and from a security perspective, imminent threat of the 357 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:47,680 Speaker 1: white nationalist terrorists. This is also why you have such 358 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:52,239 Speaker 1: a focus on the January sixth insurrection. That's why they 359 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 1: call it an insurrection when it was not that. There 360 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 1: was no There was no serious threat or even serious 361 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:04,679 Speaker 1: plum to overthrow the United States government by force. This 362 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:10,200 Speaker 1: is insane, all right. If one guy with a cart 363 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:13,960 Speaker 1: that says I am now the President of the United States, 364 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 1: you know, walks it through Times Square and then tries 365 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:20,440 Speaker 1: to wrestle a police officer to the ground, that's not 366 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:24,959 Speaker 1: an insurrection, right, There are limits on the level of 367 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 1: absurdity we will allow the other side to get away 368 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 1: with in their description of things. It was a riot, 369 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 1: something the left is not only comparable with and engages 370 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:37,680 Speaker 1: with on a regular basis, but often celebrates and justifies. 371 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:42,640 Speaker 1: We say, no, the riot was bad, breaking the laws bad. 372 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 1: They should not have done that. They should be punished. 373 00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:49,680 Speaker 1: I don't think they should be held in solitary confinement 374 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 1: for months on end under the trumped up, pardon the phrase, 375 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 1: allegation that they were really a mortal threat to the the 376 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,720 Speaker 1: United States government. I keep reading all these news headlines. 377 00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 1: They say, the lethal riot on January sixth, the deadly 378 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 1: riot on January sixth. The only person who died from 379 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 1: the riot was a rioter. Nobody else died from the riot. 380 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 1: But they keep repeating this. All right, having a heart 381 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:23,359 Speaker 1: attack two days later is not a riot induced violent death. 382 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:25,919 Speaker 1: That's not the same thing. But they keep saying it. 383 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:31,920 Speaker 1: Why because they need this. They have to create a 384 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:36,880 Speaker 1: story for themselves here of the righteous left wing of 385 00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 1: the Democrats restoring decency and normalcy to America. Keep in mind, 386 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 1: they're restoring decency by defining everybody who does not agree 387 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 1: with their agenda as being evil and worthy of suppression, 388 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:58,399 Speaker 1: worthy of the force of the state being brought to 389 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 1: bear against them. This is not a recipe for a 390 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:08,480 Speaker 1: healthy political climate. And that's putting it mildly. But this 391 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 1: is what we are up against. Terrorism from white supremacy 392 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 1: is the most lethal threat to the homeland today. That's 393 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:20,760 Speaker 1: what they say. Look at the way that the Democrat mindset, 394 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 1: that Democrat left was always underplaying and defining away and 395 00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 1: trying to trying to minimize the threat of Islamic terrorism 396 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 1: in America, which for years and years was the biggest, 397 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:42,680 Speaker 1: the biggest terrorist threat we face. It's obvious. They used 398 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:44,439 Speaker 1: to put up these graphics. I remember I was at 399 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 1: CNN once they did this, the number of people killed 400 00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 1: by white supremacist terrorists versus the number of people killed 401 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:55,200 Speaker 1: by Islamic terrorists. And they would start after nine to eleven, 402 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:57,640 Speaker 1: so they wouldn't include nine to eleven. They would cut 403 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,600 Speaker 1: that out and say, see, look at this, and then 404 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:02,200 Speaker 1: I would have to sit there and say, okay, we'll 405 00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 1: hold on a second. How many Muslim Americans are there 406 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 1: in this country. Let's it's roughly it's roughly five to 407 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 1: ten million, something like that. It's two or three percent 408 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:19,639 Speaker 1: of the population. Maybe along those lines. How many white 409 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:24,200 Speaker 1: males are there in America It's a very large chunk 410 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 1: of the population by comparison, or just how many white 411 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 1: people or in America it's it's still a majority of 412 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 1: the country. So now you're talking about over one hundred 413 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,680 Speaker 1: and fifty million people instead of a few million. So 414 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 1: when when one group I used to have to do 415 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:41,400 Speaker 1: this analysis, I would argue with people at see ANN 416 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 1: because they would say, well, the threat for years, even 417 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:48,480 Speaker 1: when isis was doing mass casualty attacks even when we 418 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:54,480 Speaker 1: were we were using a multi billion dollar anti terrorism 419 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 1: security apparatus Post nine to eleven to deal almost exclusively 420 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:03,920 Speaker 1: if jee hottest terrorism perhaps a better way of describing 421 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:07,640 Speaker 1: a better term for it, gee hottest terrorism. And when 422 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 1: you're talking about roughly one percent of the US population 423 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:17,920 Speaker 1: that was responsible for being a community from which the 424 00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 1: largest percentage of terrorism came from at that at that 425 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,399 Speaker 1: period in time, right ices, So when you look at 426 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 1: the proportionality of this, comparing it to to you know, 427 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:36,159 Speaker 1: right wing white America, well you're you're comparing something that 428 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:40,600 Speaker 1: is all automatically a much a smaller percentage of the population, 429 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 1: much smaller group of the population comprising a much larger 430 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 1: percentage of the terrorist threat. That that was the debate 431 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 1: during the War on Terror years that we'd have to 432 00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 1: go through. And now I look at this and I say, Okay, 433 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 1: white supremacist terrorism, what really is? What really is the 434 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 1: threat are they so concerned with Are they trying to 435 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 1: stop someone from let's say, the the Charleston church shooter, 436 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 1: that guy that that was a white supremacist terrorist. That's 437 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 1: that's exactly what we're talking about. Here they're going to 438 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:18,120 Speaker 1: stop that. Is that the the focus of the federal 439 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 1: government or is it on the January sixth Commission and 440 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 1: just running around and calling everybody white supremacist, anybody who 441 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:28,479 Speaker 1: supported Donald Trump, anybody who's a Republicid who had questions 442 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:31,400 Speaker 1: about the election, or who you know, pushed against fought 443 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 1: against COVID lockdown's you know, last night I saw on 444 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 1: Tucker's show. This is just a side note, but I 445 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:43,120 Speaker 1: saw on Tucker's show you had the numbers, the statistics 446 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 1: for vaccine hesitancy, and we have all the major media networks. 447 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 1: They're saying it's a it's a right wing male, white 448 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 1: male phenomenon to not get vaccinated, when sure enough, the 449 00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 1: BYPOC community in this country comprises what we're talking about. 450 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 1: Latinos and African Americans have the lowest vaccination rate still. 451 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 1: But yeah, you go, you see on TV all you 452 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 1: hear about is though, you know, the white male Republicans 453 00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 1: who won't get vaccinate it because these these are narratives, 454 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:19,760 Speaker 1: stories that are not true, that make people who believe 455 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:23,080 Speaker 1: certain things feel better about themselves and their beliefs. That's 456 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 1: what democrats, that's what the left needs to hear, and 457 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,920 Speaker 1: so now it's all about, you know, white supremacy, and 458 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 1: everyone's a white supremacist running around. This is what the 459 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 1: left says. Remember, Joe Biden is supposed to be the 460 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 1: great fighter against white supremacy all of a sudden. Really 461 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 1: he's a rich, old white guy who does whatever advances 462 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 1: his interest. But I'm sure he's deeply concerned about communities 463 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:47,600 Speaker 1: of color. This is the whole This is the whole storyline. 464 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 1: This is what they do, and we hear about this 465 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 1: all the time. But they also talk about the existential 466 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:57,040 Speaker 1: threat of climate change. These people are nuts. No normal 467 00:30:57,320 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 1: well adjusted American is walking around worried about the existential 468 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:05,240 Speaker 1: threat of climate change or worried about the threat of 469 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 1: white supremacist terrorism or another insurrection against the government. But 470 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 1: these are constants in the way the Democrat Party talks 471 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:22,600 Speaker 1: about life in America today. There's an obsession with race, 472 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 1: and really with creating racial discord among Democrats and exploiting 473 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 1: it for their own purposes. Remember, if the black community 474 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:32,200 Speaker 1: did not vote over ninety Democrat, they wouldn't be able 475 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 1: to win presidential election. So the stakes here are very high. 476 00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 1: They'll say whatever they have to say the Democrat apparatus, 477 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 1: Joe Biden his administration. They'll say whatever they have to 478 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:47,480 Speaker 1: say for power, because that is the motivating principle. Everything 479 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:51,600 Speaker 1: else is just window dressing. And the data shows young 480 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 1: black entrepreneurs are just as capable of succeeding given the 481 00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 1: chance as white entrepreneurs are. But they don't have lawyers. 482 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 1: They don't have they don't have accountants, but they have 483 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 1: great ideas. Does anyone doubt this whole nation be better 484 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 1: off from the investments those people making. I promise you 485 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 1: that's why I set up a National Small Business Administration 486 00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 1: that's much broader, because they're going to get those loans. 487 00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 1: They don't have lawyers, they don't have accountants, Biden says 488 00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 1: of black entrepreneurs. That's not true. So I just why 489 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: is it okay that Joe Biden can say something so 490 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:39,920 Speaker 1: demonstrably and obviously false on this issue and the media 491 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 1: just goes along with it. It's just not accurate at all. 492 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 1: I mean, it's obviously not accurate. There's no debate about this. 493 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 1: There are plenty of black entrepreneurs who have access to 494 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 1: and use lawyers and accountants, and very good ones at that. 495 00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:59,760 Speaker 1: So what is Biden really saying it's just blather, it's 496 00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:03,200 Speaker 1: just handering, it's pandering from an old, out of touch 497 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 1: white guy. The Democrat Party is propping up like its 498 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 1: weekend at Bernie's presidency. That's what's going on. But you 499 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 1: won't ever hear that from the media. Why well, because 500 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 1: they understand, they know what the game is here, they 501 00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:22,800 Speaker 1: understand what's really going on. In fact, if you're wondering, 502 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:26,800 Speaker 1: I mean Barack Obama came out and said it straight 503 00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:32,560 Speaker 1: up recently that Joe Biden, mister moderate, amtrack Joe from Scranton, 504 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:37,480 Speaker 1: his purpose is to finish the job. As Obama says 505 00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 1: that the Obama administration started or got going for eight years, 506 00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 1: that this really is Joe Biden is the third term 507 00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 1: of Obama, just without Obama actually living in the White House. 508 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:53,239 Speaker 1: Here's the former president Obama sanging himself play eleven. And 509 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 1: I think that what we're seeing now as Joe Biden 510 00:33:56,320 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 1: and the administration are essentially finishing the job. And I 511 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:04,200 Speaker 1: think it'll be an interesting test. Ninety percent of the 512 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:08,000 Speaker 1: folks who were there were there in my administration. They 513 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:11,120 Speaker 1: are continuing and building on the policies we talked about 514 00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:15,240 Speaker 1: whether it's affordable character our climate change agenda and Paris 515 00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:19,239 Speaker 1: Piece Accords and figuring out how do we improve the 516 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:24,600 Speaker 1: ladders to mobility through things like community colleges. And if, 517 00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 1: as I think they will be, they're successful over the 518 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 1: next four years, I think that will have an impact. 519 00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:33,920 Speaker 1: A classic Obama ism too here. You know, if they're successful, 520 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:37,880 Speaker 1: that will have an impact. Oh my gosh, it's so brilliant. 521 00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 1: Look what you litto. If they win the game, they 522 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:44,160 Speaker 1: will probably be victorious. I mean, oh my gosh. Obama's 523 00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:46,200 Speaker 1: a genius. It's amazing. I know this is what we 524 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:50,040 Speaker 1: always hear. But what he says about how many people 525 00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:53,880 Speaker 1: this is just the Obama administration without Obama. That's what 526 00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 1: you've got. That's what you've got here with this Democrat 527 00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,839 Speaker 1: Democrat apparatus. That's why I refer to it as an apparatus. 528 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,400 Speaker 1: It's really not a job about Joe Biden. It's about 529 00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 1: the people who are around him. It's about those who 530 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:10,920 Speaker 1: are running these federal agencies and and pushing the agenda 531 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 1: of this white House bed behind closed doors. Also on 532 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:20,080 Speaker 1: this point about systemic racism, and remember, you know, the 533 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:25,880 Speaker 1: white supremacist terrorism is just the the worst manifestation of 534 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:31,239 Speaker 1: the systemic racism that we are to believe is has 535 00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:34,640 Speaker 1: infected every aspect of American society. Is everywhere you eat, 536 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:39,440 Speaker 1: every institution, every agency of government. There's there's systemic racism 537 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 1: everywhere where is? Where is it? How is it? What? 538 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:44,879 Speaker 1: How do we deal with it all? Don't don't ask 539 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:47,680 Speaker 1: any questions, just shut up and listen to the diversity 540 00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:52,960 Speaker 1: and inclusion lecture that's America today. Here's an Ebraham Kendy. 541 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 1: Want to find a racism expert. This guy is supposed 542 00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 1: to be one of the great experts on racism. It's 543 00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:02,440 Speaker 1: made a whole career out of it. Here's what it 544 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 1: sounds like when he tries to explain at a conference 545 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:09,560 Speaker 1: what racism is. Play three. You talked about the importance 546 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:13,799 Speaker 1: of defining racism. But unless I missed it, which is possible, 547 00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:17,279 Speaker 1: I didn't hear your personal definition. Is there is there 548 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:19,120 Speaker 1: one that you would offer us, like, how do you 549 00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:23,600 Speaker 1: define racism? Sure? So racism. I would define it as 550 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:30,160 Speaker 1: a collection of racist policies that lead to racial inequity 551 00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:38,840 Speaker 1: that are substantiated by racist ideas. Sure, a collection of 552 00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:44,840 Speaker 1: racist policies that lead to racial inequity. That are substantiated 553 00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:50,799 Speaker 1: by racist ideas, and anti racism is pretty simple using 554 00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:53,800 Speaker 1: the same terms. Anti racism is a collection of anti 555 00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:57,000 Speaker 1: racist policies leading to racial anybody want to take guests 556 00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:03,720 Speaker 1: equity that are substantiated by anti racist ideas. Ah, so 557 00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:06,959 Speaker 1: you understand that the definition is it's whatever he says 558 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:11,399 Speaker 1: it is, because all those other terms, well, what does 559 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:16,720 Speaker 1: that mean. What's a racist policy, what's racial equity, What's 560 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:22,520 Speaker 1: what's a you know, just racial outcome. It's all subject 561 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:26,799 Speaker 1: to not just interpretation, to the whims of the individuals, 562 00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:29,960 Speaker 1: the high priests of the critical race theory religion, if 563 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:35,080 Speaker 1: you will, they get to determine what this really means 564 00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:39,320 Speaker 1: in practice. And that's the whole point. This is about power. 565 00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:45,040 Speaker 1: What is what is a standard definition of racism, one 566 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:48,600 Speaker 1: that people can understand and people could use to guide 567 00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:52,560 Speaker 1: their own actions in their own lives. Racism is thinking 568 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:59,839 Speaker 1: about or treating people differently, good or bad, because of 569 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 1: their race. It is immoral to make distinctions based upon 570 00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:10,360 Speaker 1: skin color. It is immoral to have different legal or 571 00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:15,000 Speaker 1: personal treatment of an individual because of their of the 572 00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:21,759 Speaker 1: pigment in their skin. It's immoral, it's wrong. That's a 573 00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:25,800 Speaker 1: definition of racism that also can be meaningful to people 574 00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:28,239 Speaker 1: in terms of how to guide their own actions and 575 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:31,399 Speaker 1: how to act in their lives. What Ibraham Kennedy gave 576 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:34,360 Speaker 1: you is do what I say, or else you're a racist. 577 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,360 Speaker 1: Support the policies I want, or else you're a racist, 578 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:40,680 Speaker 1: and thus the whole game is given away. We're a 579 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:44,359 Speaker 1: host of a three hour show, Meeka and I about politics. 580 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:48,759 Speaker 1: But I mean, it's not good for this country to 581 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,719 Speaker 1: be talking about politics twenty four hours. Say that's not 582 00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:54,200 Speaker 1: who we are fighting about it. How are you even 583 00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:58,000 Speaker 1: talking about politics obsessing about politics? People looking at MSNBC 584 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:01,640 Speaker 1: or Fox twenty four hours today or CNN twenty four 585 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:05,040 Speaker 1: hours a day. I feel like, you know, then to 586 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:07,920 Speaker 1: Ferris Bueller, what are you still doing it? Go out? 587 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:11,959 Speaker 1: Like do something? Get out? You know? I tell you 588 00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:18,640 Speaker 1: sometimes even Morning Joe has something worthwhile to say. And 589 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:22,960 Speaker 1: I will admit that to you. Now, no one's watching 590 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:26,040 Speaker 1: anything twenty four hours a day. I know that's intentional exaggeration. 591 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,799 Speaker 1: I'm not quibbling with that, but I'm just saying, obviously 592 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:32,520 Speaker 1: that's the case. But I think that it is an 593 00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:35,359 Speaker 1: important reminder here because we've gone through a period of 594 00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:39,400 Speaker 1: time where we have been cut off from actual human contact, 595 00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 1: where we've been consuming I think, so much more information 596 00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:48,759 Speaker 1: media than at any other time, and have more options 597 00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:52,400 Speaker 1: in the consumption of information media. You know, pick the 598 00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:55,080 Speaker 1: pick who you're going to give your time to, and 599 00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:58,200 Speaker 1: guard your time. One of the most important lessons we 600 00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:01,240 Speaker 1: all learn, I think as we get older, is how 601 00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:07,160 Speaker 1: how necessary it is to protect your time and not 602 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:09,360 Speaker 1: to I mean, I have some things that I always 603 00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:10,960 Speaker 1: say to myself and I tell to those who are 604 00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 1: close to me. Don't let the unimportant affect the important. Right. 605 00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:20,279 Speaker 1: This is, you know, don't don't take a you know, 606 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:23,239 Speaker 1: a meeting with somebody who is going to make your 607 00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:26,319 Speaker 1: boss think you're being disloyal for having that meeting just 608 00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:27,799 Speaker 1: because you think you're going to be a nice guy 609 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:29,520 Speaker 1: by taking the meeting, right, you know, don't allow the 610 00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:33,279 Speaker 1: unimportant to affect the important. But also that that's the 611 00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:35,279 Speaker 1: thing that I often say, I think, and it's true 612 00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:38,239 Speaker 1: in relationships. You know, don't take a phone call from 613 00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:40,560 Speaker 1: your ex wife if it or from your ex husband 614 00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:44,120 Speaker 1: if your your current husband is going to say, well, 615 00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:45,799 Speaker 1: well why are you talking to that guy? You know, 616 00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:49,520 Speaker 1: don't allow things like that to creep up in your life. 617 00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:51,400 Speaker 1: It's very easy to do so. And not with that, 618 00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:54,600 Speaker 1: with with having good intentions too. Oh, I just needed 619 00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:56,719 Speaker 1: to I didn't want someone to feel like I was 620 00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:58,719 Speaker 1: being rude. I can't tell you how many times in 621 00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:03,880 Speaker 1: my life I just I made a decision because I 622 00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:06,719 Speaker 1: didn't want to be rude, and then I ended up 623 00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:10,880 Speaker 1: being more rude in a sense, we're more problematic, created 624 00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:14,239 Speaker 1: an issue out of that desire to be polite not 625 00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:17,919 Speaker 1: hurt someone's feelings. Okay, I'll you know, I'll hear them out, 626 00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:19,880 Speaker 1: or i'll take this call, or i'll have this meeting 627 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:22,080 Speaker 1: or whatever it may be. And then I have a 628 00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:23,719 Speaker 1: problem later. You know, Then all of a sudden, I 629 00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:25,480 Speaker 1: got an issue because I'm trying to be a You 630 00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:27,920 Speaker 1: can try to be a good guy or gal and 631 00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:33,160 Speaker 1: end up making mistakes that are much bigger than you anticipate. 632 00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:35,319 Speaker 1: So you've got to remember. And that's why I have 633 00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:38,520 Speaker 1: that rule, don't let the unimportant effect the important. And 634 00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:41,080 Speaker 1: then another one is just learning, And this is I 635 00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:43,560 Speaker 1: know I got off on a tangent there, but learning 636 00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:46,759 Speaker 1: to protect your time. The one thing you can never 637 00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:50,759 Speaker 1: get back is your time. The one thing that you 638 00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:53,319 Speaker 1: cherish more certainly as you get older, as you have 639 00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:56,359 Speaker 1: a more of a perspective on it is, how valuable 640 00:41:56,960 --> 00:42:01,560 Speaker 1: your time is to you. And it's possible right now 641 00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:04,520 Speaker 1: without even thinking about it. I think, more than in 642 00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:09,720 Speaker 1: any period in human history, did just waste and waste 643 00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:14,440 Speaker 1: and waste more time with all these these quick, fixed 644 00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:19,920 Speaker 1: attention grabbers. They oh, you know, turn, here's another flashing light, 645 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:22,839 Speaker 1: here's another thing to click on, here's another Some of 646 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:26,680 Speaker 1: that is good, some of that is worthwhile. I work 647 00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:29,480 Speaker 1: in news media. I think news and politics are important, 648 00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:32,719 Speaker 1: but it's all within it's all within a context, it's 649 00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:37,160 Speaker 1: all within a framework of you gotta make sure that 650 00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:40,240 Speaker 1: you turn off. Don't you don't have a news channel 651 00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:42,840 Speaker 1: in the background all day. I don't think that's a 652 00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:44,879 Speaker 1: good idea. No matter what the news channel is, don't 653 00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 1: have it in the background all day. Maybe if you're 654 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:48,839 Speaker 1: at the office and you're in the workplace, that's one thing. 655 00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:51,640 Speaker 1: But I mean when you're at home, get away from it. 656 00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:55,760 Speaker 1: Shut it down, Shut it down, Think about your life. 657 00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:58,640 Speaker 1: Think about who you are, what you're doing, your relationships 658 00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:02,920 Speaker 1: that matter to you. You know, we've now finally, I think, 659 00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:06,480 Speaker 1: as a nation we're realizing, Okay, COVID's over. Basically, it's 660 00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:09,719 Speaker 1: never really over, right. It's like saying, well, you know, 661 00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:14,239 Speaker 1: even after the Great Influenza pandemic of nineteen eighteen, there 662 00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:16,719 Speaker 1: were still flus. There's still people that died from a flu, 663 00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:20,560 Speaker 1: but the pandemic was over. The COVID pandemic is in 664 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:25,160 Speaker 1: this country over. There's still COVID and there's still people 665 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:27,960 Speaker 1: who will die from but it's it's not a pandemic anymore. 666 00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:31,360 Speaker 1: And for some of us, we've been living pretty normal 667 00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:33,680 Speaker 1: lives for a while. But for others, they're finally waking 668 00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:37,239 Speaker 1: up to oh, now they have to make decisions and 669 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:41,440 Speaker 1: determinations about how they spend their time. Now there's actual 670 00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:43,640 Speaker 1: human interaction that they're going to have to manage and 671 00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:45,719 Speaker 1: deal with. And for some people, I think that's going 672 00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:48,600 Speaker 1: to be a challenge. That's going to be an issue. 673 00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:55,239 Speaker 1: It's a lot easier to maintain relationships with people when 674 00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:59,600 Speaker 1: they're just in the superficial realm of digital communications, when 675 00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:03,600 Speaker 1: you have to give somebody your presence and your attention, 676 00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:09,160 Speaker 1: physical presence and actual attention, not multitasking eight people in 677 00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:12,240 Speaker 1: different text messages at once and sending out four emails 678 00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:17,120 Speaker 1: and all this that feels very different. So just remember 679 00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:18,960 Speaker 1: that it is a precious thing when you This is 680 00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:20,279 Speaker 1: why I always say it all of you, that you 681 00:44:20,320 --> 00:44:23,160 Speaker 1: spend your time with me. You listen to this show. 682 00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:27,960 Speaker 1: I understand that there's there's quite literally tens of thousands 683 00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:30,279 Speaker 1: of podcasts you could listen to the Deal with Politics, 684 00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:33,080 Speaker 1: and those are the ones that people have heard of. 685 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:35,520 Speaker 1: I mean, there's over a million podcast total in the 686 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:37,880 Speaker 1: Apple Store, just to give you a sense of it. 687 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:40,239 Speaker 1: But I know that if you're listening to me, you're 688 00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:42,440 Speaker 1: you're making the choice not to listen to a lot 689 00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:45,440 Speaker 1: of other shows. And so that's a precious thing because 690 00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:50,439 Speaker 1: I don't I don't recommend spending four or eight or 691 00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:54,520 Speaker 1: ten hours of your day in the news realm entity capacity, 692 00:44:54,920 --> 00:44:57,279 Speaker 1: and I think that's become far too easy for us. 693 00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:03,399 Speaker 1: And you can almost create an esc apeism of despair 694 00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:07,879 Speaker 1: through news, which is not healthy psychologically. A lot of 695 00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:13,000 Speaker 1: people in America around the world created an escapism of 696 00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:17,600 Speaker 1: pandemic despair. Now, obviously they're not escaping the pandemic by 697 00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:22,280 Speaker 1: doing this, No, the opposite. They immersed themselves emotionally and psychologically, 698 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:25,480 Speaker 1: so deeply in it that they block out. You know, 699 00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:27,720 Speaker 1: why haven't I talked to my brother in five years? 700 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:31,440 Speaker 1: You know why why haven't I visited you know, my 701 00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:36,520 Speaker 1: elderly grandparents or parents in six months? Well during the pandemic. 702 00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 1: I know there are reasons for that, but you know 703 00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:41,480 Speaker 1: what I'm saying in general, Why why haven't I worked 704 00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:44,080 Speaker 1: harder at my job? Why haven't I lost those twenty 705 00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:46,120 Speaker 1: pounds I've been trying to lose for the last ten years. 706 00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:51,000 Speaker 1: You know, you can start to use the distraction of 707 00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:55,120 Speaker 1: the world collapsing all around you through news which is 708 00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:57,759 Speaker 1: going to take a focus on the negative as a 709 00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:01,000 Speaker 1: means of avoiding what really matters to you in your 710 00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:05,200 Speaker 1: day to day life and what you can control. So yes, 711 00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:08,520 Speaker 1: spend your time with me, listen to this show, and 712 00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:11,120 Speaker 1: then you know, that's it. Maybe maybe one or two 713 00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:13,600 Speaker 1: news shows if you want at night before you go 714 00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:16,560 Speaker 1: to bed, and you know, a scan of a newspaper 715 00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:20,400 Speaker 1: headlines if you will, But that's it. Don't get dragged 716 00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:23,520 Speaker 1: into this, because I do believe that there is a 717 00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:28,719 Speaker 1: real mental health crisis in this country that's being made 718 00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:31,840 Speaker 1: worse by social media that's being made that has been 719 00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:35,600 Speaker 1: made much worse by the lockdowns and then just by 720 00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:41,160 Speaker 1: this Democrat machinery of constant hysteria out there about the 721 00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:45,120 Speaker 1: insurrection and about all the white supremacist terrorists and the 722 00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:48,520 Speaker 1: institutional racism and the killer cops and all the you know, 723 00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:55,840 Speaker 1: all these just completely exaggerated threats to America, to Americans 724 00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:58,439 Speaker 1: in their day to day lives. Um, it's it's easy 725 00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:00,560 Speaker 1: to start to feel down about it. And I know 726 00:47:00,680 --> 00:47:02,600 Speaker 1: for a lot of you who got used to having 727 00:47:03,239 --> 00:47:06,520 Speaker 1: there was a certain look. It was fun when Trump 728 00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:10,880 Speaker 1: was president. He was putting out entertaining tweets and he 729 00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:14,600 Speaker 1: was engaging, and it was like never a dull moment 730 00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:18,080 Speaker 1: in America with the Trump presidency going on. Now there's 731 00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:23,319 Speaker 1: just something depressing about a Biden presidency. I mean a 732 00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:24,960 Speaker 1: lot of things that are depressing about it, but we 733 00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:28,000 Speaker 1: can all feel that, and in the media focus on 734 00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:30,600 Speaker 1: the negative all the time, not about the Biden presidency. 735 00:47:30,640 --> 00:47:33,440 Speaker 1: Of course, so we're depressed because Biden is the president, 736 00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:35,680 Speaker 1: and then the media wants us to think they're all 737 00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:38,440 Speaker 1: these other horrible things going on that we have to 738 00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:42,319 Speaker 1: be so focused on that aren't caused by the Biden administration. 739 00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:47,280 Speaker 1: This is just my appeal to all of you. Take 740 00:47:47,360 --> 00:47:51,120 Speaker 1: time to relax your mind and be with people who 741 00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:54,760 Speaker 1: matter and do it every day. Relax your mind, however, 742 00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:59,000 Speaker 1: that is, get away from these things, get away from 743 00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:03,600 Speaker 1: the fixed sation on left right, left right, and you 744 00:48:03,640 --> 00:48:08,640 Speaker 1: know all the challenges of politics today, and then jump 745 00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:13,040 Speaker 1: back into the fray with me rested, ready refreshed. You know, 746 00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:16,200 Speaker 1: it's it's about striking a balance here. So you know, 747 00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:18,840 Speaker 1: I trash a lot of the nonsense that said on 748 00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:21,480 Speaker 1: Morning Joe, and rightfully so. But I will tell you 749 00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:24,800 Speaker 1: when it comes to establishing some kind of a balance 750 00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:27,960 Speaker 1: in your life and keeping news in its proper place. 751 00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:32,000 Speaker 1: News and information have a They have a piece of 752 00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:35,080 Speaker 1: your day to day, but you control how much it 753 00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:38,120 Speaker 1: is and you keep it there. You don't allow it 754 00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:41,080 Speaker 1: to start creeping into you know, everything becomes political and 755 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:46,200 Speaker 1: everything is just a constant information loop. Because that that 756 00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:50,960 Speaker 1: addiction to the despair of news can become its own 757 00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:54,520 Speaker 1: escape mechanism from the things that are important in your life. 758 00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:56,720 Speaker 1: Right as at some level of escapism can be good, 759 00:48:57,360 --> 00:48:59,800 Speaker 1: but you don't want to escape into despair as a 760 00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:02,120 Speaker 1: means of and this is what democrats do with things 761 00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:05,000 Speaker 1: like climate change. Oh, it's a catastrophic It's going to 762 00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:08,239 Speaker 1: end the world. It's existential. I guess I don't have 763 00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:10,040 Speaker 1: to think about the fact that I'm a huge phony 764 00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:12,920 Speaker 1: who pretends to care about, you know, the Black Lives 765 00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:15,120 Speaker 1: Matter or movement, and really I just wanted to put 766 00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:17,719 Speaker 1: something on my Instagram page. But oh, I don't have 767 00:49:17,760 --> 00:49:21,360 Speaker 1: time to think about that, because the existential threat of 768 00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:24,120 Speaker 1: climate change just keeps me up at night. You see 769 00:49:24,120 --> 00:49:26,640 Speaker 1: what I mean. I don't have time to think about 770 00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:30,919 Speaker 1: how poorly I treat my coworkers are employees, because I'm 771 00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:36,640 Speaker 1: too busy being worried about about, you know, fighting systemic 772 00:49:36,760 --> 00:49:40,480 Speaker 1: racism and police departments across the country by putting a 773 00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:44,560 Speaker 1: few hashtags on my Twitter account, right, Yeah, you see 774 00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:48,560 Speaker 1: how that works. Central to the Democrat ethos, some of 775 00:49:48,560 --> 00:49:51,480 Speaker 1: these battles of what the left is doing and wokeis 776 00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:55,440 Speaker 1: you know, it's effectively cultural Marxism, and so you can 777 00:49:55,560 --> 00:50:00,799 Speaker 1: have theoretically a successful ethic economy, but if the under 778 00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:03,800 Speaker 1: opinions of the culture are just being torn apart, I 779 00:50:03,800 --> 00:50:06,719 Speaker 1: don't think that that's a society that's going to be very, 780 00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:11,640 Speaker 1: very successful over the long term. It's important to engage 781 00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:17,640 Speaker 1: in the culture War. It's not enough to just try 782 00:50:17,680 --> 00:50:21,400 Speaker 1: to let everyone do their own thing and oh, people 783 00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:24,080 Speaker 1: will just do what they do. This is, I think 784 00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:28,480 Speaker 1: one of the failings of the modern conservative movement in America. 785 00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:34,200 Speaker 1: Until recently, there was a large contingent of people who 786 00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:37,399 Speaker 1: thought of themselves as conservatives, who believed that the way 787 00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:42,040 Speaker 1: forward was to create a neutral space where nobody would 788 00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:45,439 Speaker 1: really push for a set of ideas. They would just say, 789 00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:49,040 Speaker 1: we'll leave it open to whatever ideas. We're not going 790 00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:53,200 Speaker 1: to try to involve ourselves in school curriculum. We're just 791 00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:57,040 Speaker 1: going to assume that the people involved in this will 792 00:50:57,040 --> 00:50:58,960 Speaker 1: do so in good faith. And we're not going to 793 00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:02,279 Speaker 1: try to put our stuff in front of kids. We're 794 00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:05,600 Speaker 1: not going to try to get our classes and reading 795 00:51:05,600 --> 00:51:11,839 Speaker 1: lists to be standardized in schools. Will allow the teachers 796 00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:15,680 Speaker 1: and the teachers unions and the Department of Education and 797 00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:19,000 Speaker 1: so on and so forth. That was the approach, and 798 00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:23,080 Speaker 1: it has resulted in critical race theory taught in schools 799 00:51:23,080 --> 00:51:26,880 Speaker 1: now all across the country. It has resulted in and 800 00:51:27,080 --> 00:51:35,680 Speaker 1: increasingly obviously left wing and Marxist Democrat Party, and we 801 00:51:35,920 --> 00:51:39,880 Speaker 1: finally see that they're willing to shut down our side 802 00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:44,360 Speaker 1: through whatever means they can, because they're seeking not just 803 00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:48,759 Speaker 1: political but cultural dominance too, And I think you could 804 00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:51,080 Speaker 1: argue that the left in many ways is closer to 805 00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:55,279 Speaker 1: cultural dominance than it has been in certainly my lifetime. 806 00:51:56,200 --> 00:52:00,200 Speaker 1: You see what they've done online, with big tech, with 807 00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:03,839 Speaker 1: entertainment media, with sports. I mean, if I had told 808 00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:05,600 Speaker 1: you that you had to be a woke to be 809 00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:09,360 Speaker 1: a professional athlete ten or fifteen years ago, you probably 810 00:52:09,360 --> 00:52:12,200 Speaker 1: would have laughed. Now you don't. Sports are a great 811 00:52:12,520 --> 00:52:16,120 Speaker 1: American pasttime. If I had told you fifteen years ago 812 00:52:16,160 --> 00:52:21,320 Speaker 1: that you would have top athletes kneeling during the national 813 00:52:21,320 --> 00:52:26,959 Speaker 1: anthem because of police violence in America, really that would 814 00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:30,279 Speaker 1: have seemed outlandish to you. And yet this is where 815 00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:34,200 Speaker 1: we are. And Governor de Santis understands that it's not 816 00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:38,360 Speaker 1: enough to merely say that you oppose these things. You 817 00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:43,440 Speaker 1: must take action where you can against critical race theory 818 00:52:43,440 --> 00:52:49,400 Speaker 1: teaching in schools, against companies that are censoring conservative ideas, 819 00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:51,920 Speaker 1: and doing everything that they can to make sure that 820 00:52:52,040 --> 00:52:55,720 Speaker 1: only left wing perspectives are allowed in the public square. 821 00:52:56,560 --> 00:52:59,440 Speaker 1: Otherwise we just lose and they keep gaining ground. The 822 00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:04,799 Speaker 1: other side, the left reaches its pinnacle of power, and 823 00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:06,839 Speaker 1: then it perhaps is too late. I mean, you can 824 00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:11,680 Speaker 1: have societies where you have one party rule and there 825 00:53:11,680 --> 00:53:15,839 Speaker 1: are even if there's a technical democracy, there is really 826 00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:18,080 Speaker 1: only one political party that has its say, is able 827 00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:21,320 Speaker 1: to do anything, and that's the Democrats plan. I believe 828 00:53:21,600 --> 00:53:25,080 Speaker 1: in this country, that's what they're trying to do. That's 829 00:53:25,080 --> 00:53:29,600 Speaker 1: where they're trying to take us to be the dominant 830 00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:33,120 Speaker 1: political and cultural force and to be able to make 831 00:53:33,160 --> 00:53:36,239 Speaker 1: sure that it really just turns into a discussion going 832 00:53:36,280 --> 00:53:39,600 Speaker 1: forward of how woke, how left wing, how socialist the 833 00:53:39,640 --> 00:53:43,719 Speaker 1: country will be, not whether those are even worthy ideas 834 00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:46,640 Speaker 1: in the first place. I think quite clearly they are not. 835 00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:52,360 Speaker 1: DeSantis has gotten a lot of attention because he signed 836 00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:59,680 Speaker 1: this bill that bans biological males from playing in women's 837 00:53:59,680 --> 00:54:04,560 Speaker 1: sports in colleges, and the NC doble A has responded 838 00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:06,640 Speaker 1: in predictable fashion by saying, oh, well, we're not going 839 00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:09,239 Speaker 1: to have our tournaments there. Well, DeSantis has learned the 840 00:54:09,280 --> 00:54:12,960 Speaker 1: gnome lesson of don't bend the knee right away. Don't 841 00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:15,759 Speaker 1: say you're a fighter and then bend the knee to 842 00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:21,000 Speaker 1: woke corporations or nonprofits like the NC double A the 843 00:54:21,040 --> 00:54:23,200 Speaker 1: whole point is you have to be willing to fight. 844 00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:27,120 Speaker 1: It's not just rhetorical action that we want, it's real 845 00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:32,120 Speaker 1: usage of power. And DeSantis has said he's going to 846 00:54:32,200 --> 00:54:35,600 Speaker 1: protect women's sports in the state of Florida and not 847 00:54:35,760 --> 00:54:38,239 Speaker 1: going to bend the knee to the NCAA or any 848 00:54:38,239 --> 00:54:43,920 Speaker 1: other company or corporation for that matter, play ten. I 849 00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:46,640 Speaker 1: think as these bills were going through various legislatures, I 850 00:54:46,680 --> 00:54:49,959 Speaker 1: remember the NCAA put out a statement saying any state 851 00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:52,719 Speaker 1: that enacts this, we're not going to hold events there. 852 00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:55,360 Speaker 1: And so I called the speaker the house in Florida 853 00:54:55,360 --> 00:54:57,160 Speaker 1: and I said, did you hear what they said? And 854 00:54:57,239 --> 00:54:59,160 Speaker 1: he's like yeah. I said, we definitely got to get 855 00:54:59,160 --> 00:55:03,560 Speaker 1: this done. It can't be cowed by these organizations, or 856 00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:07,400 Speaker 1: particularly by woke corporations from doing the right thing. And 857 00:55:07,440 --> 00:55:10,640 Speaker 1: so my view was throughout this whole time, we have 858 00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:14,600 Speaker 1: to protect our girls. It is discriminatory to force them 859 00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:18,080 Speaker 1: to compete against biological males. And so if the price 860 00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:22,480 Speaker 1: of having a tournament is that I have to deny 861 00:55:22,600 --> 00:55:26,400 Speaker 1: equal opportunity two hundreds of thousands of young girl and 862 00:55:26,480 --> 00:55:30,640 Speaker 1: women athletes throughout Florida, I am much more willing to 863 00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:33,680 Speaker 1: stand with the girls and to hell with these events, 864 00:55:34,960 --> 00:55:40,600 Speaker 1: to hell with these NCABA events. He's absolutely right. I 865 00:55:40,680 --> 00:55:42,480 Speaker 1: keep saying it. I don't know how it could be 866 00:55:42,520 --> 00:55:45,960 Speaker 1: anybody other than RHN decantists from the Republican side in 867 00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:48,280 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, I think we'd be making a mistake 868 00:55:48,280 --> 00:55:50,160 Speaker 1: from what I've seen right now, from what I've seen 869 00:55:50,600 --> 00:55:53,520 Speaker 1: so far, I should say, you know, Trump is going 870 00:55:53,600 --> 00:55:57,839 Speaker 1: to be almost eighty guys, Let's get real about this. 871 00:55:58,080 --> 00:56:01,400 Speaker 1: You know that I think that Trump did some really 872 00:56:01,440 --> 00:56:05,680 Speaker 1: good things, great messaging, built a movement, But we have 873 00:56:05,840 --> 00:56:08,359 Speaker 1: to deal with the reality of where we are as 874 00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:10,719 Speaker 1: a party, and I want what's best for not just 875 00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:14,400 Speaker 1: the GOP, for America. The GOP is just a mechanism 876 00:56:14,480 --> 00:56:17,680 Speaker 1: for getting the best outcome for my fellow Americans. It 877 00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:19,560 Speaker 1: is a means to an end. I don't have some 878 00:56:20,120 --> 00:56:23,480 Speaker 1: deep tribal allegiance to the Republican Party, it's not about that. 879 00:56:24,800 --> 00:56:28,000 Speaker 1: But I don't have any deep allegiance to an individual 880 00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:31,160 Speaker 1: politician either. They are also a means to an end, 881 00:56:31,760 --> 00:56:34,840 Speaker 1: to govern as best as the American people can be. 882 00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:37,759 Speaker 1: That's the point, that's the purpose. I think Rod de 883 00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:40,920 Speaker 1: Santis is our best shot of that, and he's certainly 884 00:56:40,920 --> 00:56:44,160 Speaker 1: showing us that he's not tired of winning. Not yet. 885 00:56:44,280 --> 00:56:46,520 Speaker 1: Does it make sense that the same company who controls 886 00:56:46,560 --> 00:56:50,320 Speaker 1: half of online retail also passively eavesdrops on your private 887 00:56:50,360 --> 00:56:52,960 Speaker 1: conversations at home? What about the idea that a single 888 00:56:52,960 --> 00:56:57,280 Speaker 1: company controls ninety percent of Internet searches, runs your email service, 889 00:56:57,520 --> 00:57:00,160 Speaker 1: and gets the track everything you do on your smartphone. 890 00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:03,120 Speaker 1: Big tech is more powerful than most countries are, and 891 00:57:03,160 --> 00:57:06,319 Speaker 1: they profit by exploiting your personal data. It's time to 892 00:57:06,400 --> 00:57:09,239 Speaker 1: put a layer of protection between your online activity and 893 00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:14,279 Speaker 1: these tech juggernauts. That's why I use Express VPN. Think 894 00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:16,480 Speaker 1: about how much of your life is on the Internet. Sadly, 895 00:57:16,640 --> 00:57:19,840 Speaker 1: every site you visit, every video you watch, every message 896 00:57:19,840 --> 00:57:22,280 Speaker 1: you send is tracked and data mind.

Stop 904 00:57:45,520 --> 00:57:48,280 Speaker 1: handing over your personal data to the big tech monopoly 905 00:57:48,520 --> 00:57:52,280 Speaker 1: that minds your activity and sells your information. Protect yourself 906 00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:54,840 Speaker 1: with the VPN I trust to keep me safe online. 907 00:57:55,240 --> 00:57:59,760 Speaker 1: Visit Express vpn dot com slash buck that's Express VP 908 00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:03,000 Speaker 1: dot com slash box to get three extra months free. 909 00:58:03,320 --> 00:58:06,480 Speaker 1: Go to Express vpn dot com slash buck right now 910 00:58:06,520 --> 00:58:09,600 Speaker 1: to learn more. Thank Defunding the police has got to 911 00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:15,200 Speaker 1: be one of the dumbest ideas surfaced by anyone in 912 00:58:15,320 --> 00:58:20,320 Speaker 1: our country. Yep I said it before. Walls don't work 913 00:58:20,480 --> 00:58:23,560 Speaker 1: was the dumbest political slogan that the Democrats had ever 914 00:58:23,600 --> 00:58:27,880 Speaker 1: come up with until until at least the modern era 915 00:58:27,920 --> 00:58:30,840 Speaker 1: of the Democrat Party. And then they came up with 916 00:58:30,960 --> 00:58:34,920 Speaker 1: defund the police. And you'll notice that now they're walking 917 00:58:34,960 --> 00:58:39,320 Speaker 1: away from defund the police. Now they're talking about changing 918 00:58:39,400 --> 00:58:43,920 Speaker 1: police budgets, reimagining policing. There was a brief period where 919 00:58:43,920 --> 00:58:47,480 Speaker 1: they wouldn't even talk about abolishing police, but they realized 920 00:58:47,520 --> 00:58:52,720 Speaker 1: that was just truly obviously insane, so then they moved. 921 00:58:52,920 --> 00:58:55,160 Speaker 1: Then they scaled it back a little bit. Then they 922 00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:58,440 Speaker 1: came up with, well we will if we're not going 923 00:58:58,480 --> 00:59:00,720 Speaker 1: to be able to abolish police. If we're not gonna 924 00:59:00,720 --> 00:59:03,840 Speaker 1: be able to even defund the police, now, let's talk 925 00:59:03,880 --> 00:59:09,360 Speaker 1: about reimagining public safety. They're changing all these phrases as 926 00:59:09,400 --> 00:59:12,280 Speaker 1: a means of trying, and they're changing around the language 927 00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:17,400 Speaker 1: in order to avoid the accountability of this stupidity that 928 00:59:17,480 --> 00:59:22,160 Speaker 1: they've engaged in for so long. That's what's actually happening here. 929 00:59:23,080 --> 00:59:29,000 Speaker 1: The defund the police movement has resulted in catastrophic outcomes 930 00:59:29,040 --> 00:59:32,520 Speaker 1: for communities all across the country. It was awful, was 931 00:59:32,560 --> 00:59:37,640 Speaker 1: a terrible idea, and more people have been attacked, raped, murdered, 932 00:59:37,760 --> 00:59:41,800 Speaker 1: shot as a result of the undermining of law enforcement 933 00:59:41,800 --> 00:59:45,080 Speaker 1: coast to coast. That's just what the numbers show. So 934 00:59:45,200 --> 00:59:48,120 Speaker 1: now where do they go. I want you to remember 935 00:59:48,280 --> 00:59:51,520 Speaker 1: this now because you'll see this increasingly. And it's been 936 00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:57,560 Speaker 1: a big issue as well, with the COVID lockdowners and 937 00:59:57,880 --> 01:00:03,200 Speaker 1: the Fauciite consensus and all the rest. It's there's been 938 01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:05,360 Speaker 1: this belief and I will tell you that I had 939 01:00:05,360 --> 01:00:09,480 Speaker 1: it for a while that the Internet would create greater 940 01:00:09,560 --> 01:00:16,840 Speaker 1: accountability because of the transparency around information that existed. It 941 01:00:16,880 --> 01:00:19,680 Speaker 1: wasn't possible when I was growing up, you know, before 942 01:00:19,720 --> 01:00:23,000 Speaker 1: the Internet was even really a thing. I had no 943 01:00:23,240 --> 01:00:26,360 Speaker 1: realistic way unless I was going to go to a 944 01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:28,600 Speaker 1: branch of the New York Public Library or something. I 945 01:00:28,640 --> 01:00:33,640 Speaker 1: couldn't figure out what somebody had written in a newspaper 946 01:00:33,760 --> 01:00:37,360 Speaker 1: six months ago, or what some official was quoted saying 947 01:00:37,400 --> 01:00:41,200 Speaker 1: at a speech, you know, eight months ago. There was 948 01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:42,880 Speaker 1: no way for me to find that out as a 949 01:00:43,160 --> 01:00:45,560 Speaker 1: private citizen who just wanted to know what's going on. 950 01:00:46,520 --> 01:00:48,640 Speaker 1: And so now the Internet comes along, and we have 951 01:00:48,840 --> 01:00:58,080 Speaker 1: this information machine that can pull instantaneously literally millions of 952 01:00:58,280 --> 01:01:02,160 Speaker 1: news articles and hits and everything together, and you can 953 01:01:02,200 --> 01:01:07,120 Speaker 1: find out exactly what somebody said months ago, hours ago, 954 01:01:07,480 --> 01:01:09,120 Speaker 1: one hundred you know, well, you know, if you can 955 01:01:09,360 --> 01:01:11,360 Speaker 1: pull up the quote one hundred years ago, doesn't matter 956 01:01:12,320 --> 01:01:15,240 Speaker 1: if it exists, you can find it. But we've been 957 01:01:15,280 --> 01:01:18,680 Speaker 1: assuming up to this point that, particularly when we're talking 958 01:01:18,720 --> 01:01:25,640 Speaker 1: about online storage of news articles and things that are 959 01:01:25,720 --> 01:01:29,480 Speaker 1: part of the daily narrative creation machinery. We've been assuming 960 01:01:30,040 --> 01:01:33,680 Speaker 1: that they would be honest and how they did all 961 01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:37,080 Speaker 1: of this. And now what you're starting to see is 962 01:01:37,440 --> 01:01:42,640 Speaker 1: the changing of online history to suit the present narrative. 963 01:01:43,640 --> 01:01:47,200 Speaker 1: Now I don't mean censorship of the right and that's 964 01:01:47,240 --> 01:01:49,120 Speaker 1: certainly a part of it that's been going on for 965 01:01:49,120 --> 01:01:52,520 Speaker 1: a long time. No, I mean stealth editing of Washington 966 01:01:52,600 --> 01:02:00,920 Speaker 1: Post headlines. I mean the alteration, yes Soviet style, the 967 01:02:01,040 --> 01:02:05,800 Speaker 1: alteration of the official record, which is easier. It's harder 968 01:02:06,040 --> 01:02:09,800 Speaker 1: to figure out when this happens online than it is 969 01:02:09,800 --> 01:02:11,640 Speaker 1: even when you have people that have to go back 970 01:02:11,680 --> 01:02:17,520 Speaker 1: and wipe things out in a book or eliminate all 971 01:02:17,680 --> 01:02:21,680 Speaker 1: all the hard copies of it, because you're just changing 972 01:02:21,720 --> 01:02:25,280 Speaker 1: around some zeros and ones in the back end of 973 01:02:25,280 --> 01:02:29,560 Speaker 1: a website. Essentially, it's something you can just switch and 974 01:02:29,640 --> 01:02:33,480 Speaker 1: they may add a updated story to it, right they 975 01:02:33,520 --> 01:02:35,960 Speaker 1: will say, oh, we updated this, But unless you know 976 01:02:36,120 --> 01:02:38,919 Speaker 1: very specifically what was done, that doesn't tell you very much. 977 01:02:40,240 --> 01:02:43,880 Speaker 1: They're doing this about COVID lockdowns, and they're doing this 978 01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:49,040 Speaker 1: about what the headlines were around the Wuhan leak theory. 979 01:02:49,840 --> 01:02:52,919 Speaker 1: This is happening. This is really going on right now. 980 01:02:53,800 --> 01:02:55,960 Speaker 1: And now I'm not saying that they are completely in 981 01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:58,959 Speaker 1: the open about it. I'm not saying it's yet as 982 01:02:58,960 --> 01:03:02,840 Speaker 1: egregious as it could be. But just remember Google is 983 01:03:02,880 --> 01:03:07,160 Speaker 1: a left wing company, a left wing company, not even 984 01:03:07,240 --> 01:03:12,000 Speaker 1: a left of center company, and they have the power 985 01:03:12,040 --> 01:03:14,800 Speaker 1: to change public perception about an event based upon their 986 01:03:14,800 --> 01:03:20,120 Speaker 1: search algorithm, which nobody really understands outside the company and 987 01:03:20,200 --> 01:03:24,520 Speaker 1: for which there's essentially no transparency. You know, if you 988 01:03:25,280 --> 01:03:28,360 Speaker 1: google what did Fauci say about masks in twenty twenty, 989 01:03:29,280 --> 01:03:33,400 Speaker 1: For most people, whatever appears and whatever's the first two 990 01:03:33,480 --> 01:03:36,400 Speaker 1: or three things that appear, is going to be their 991 01:03:36,480 --> 01:03:39,680 Speaker 1: perception of what really what really was said, what really 992 01:03:39,720 --> 01:03:43,000 Speaker 1: happened with Fauci. What we're going to find out more 993 01:03:43,000 --> 01:03:46,800 Speaker 1: and more, I think, is that these tech giants are 994 01:03:46,840 --> 01:03:48,920 Speaker 1: also going to play games with that. Why wouldn't they 995 01:03:49,160 --> 01:03:52,920 Speaker 1: think about how they've been suppressing information during the pandemic 996 01:03:52,920 --> 01:03:56,360 Speaker 1: along think about the means they've used up to this point. 997 01:03:58,040 --> 01:04:00,880 Speaker 1: And this brings me back to the whole defund the 998 01:04:00,880 --> 01:04:10,120 Speaker 1: police narrative. This is a stunningly, shockingly stupid political rallying cry, 999 01:04:10,720 --> 01:04:12,880 Speaker 1: and there's going to be efforts to make it seem 1000 01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:15,240 Speaker 1: like this was not really what In an election year 1001 01:04:15,280 --> 01:04:18,840 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty, Democrats were marching all over the country, 1002 01:04:19,320 --> 01:04:24,480 Speaker 1: engaging in riots, destroying property, attacking cops. There will be 1003 01:04:24,520 --> 01:04:27,040 Speaker 1: an effort to make it seem like that's not what happened. 1004 01:04:27,280 --> 01:04:29,880 Speaker 1: Might be somewhat subtle, but it can still be very effective. 1005 01:04:31,280 --> 01:04:36,720 Speaker 1: We are no longer in an era where the media 1006 01:04:36,880 --> 01:04:39,440 Speaker 1: even feels the need. They don't even feel the obligation 1007 01:04:40,040 --> 01:04:43,200 Speaker 1: to keep accurate records of what they themselves set at 1008 01:04:43,240 --> 01:04:46,240 Speaker 1: different points. There's a great piece I wanted to share 1009 01:04:46,240 --> 01:04:48,000 Speaker 1: some of this with you got me thinking about this today, 1010 01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:52,720 Speaker 1: The Media's Memory Whole Privilege, by Michael Brendan Doherty on 1011 01:04:52,840 --> 01:04:56,720 Speaker 1: National Review. Here's what he writes. In our digital future, 1012 01:04:56,880 --> 01:05:00,800 Speaker 1: individuals will be held accountable for all their sins, while 1013 01:05:00,800 --> 01:05:05,240 Speaker 1: the ruling institutions will correct their mistakes secretly with COVID. 1014 01:05:05,440 --> 01:05:11,160 Speaker 1: It's happened already, he says. With the Internet, there is 1015 01:05:11,200 --> 01:05:14,840 Speaker 1: no paper trail to burn. There is just code to update. 1016 01:05:15,480 --> 01:05:19,000 Speaker 1: And this has presented a kind of fate accomplea for 1017 01:05:19,240 --> 01:05:24,160 Speaker 1: journalistic ethics. The past used to be there in embarrassing paper, 1018 01:05:24,280 --> 01:05:30,560 Speaker 1: eventually turning yellow and converted into microfiche. Journalistic errors existed 1019 01:05:30,600 --> 01:05:34,040 Speaker 1: and were acknowledged. The disposability of the medium made the 1020 01:05:34,080 --> 01:05:38,320 Speaker 1: mistakes less embarrassing overall, and the archive ability of the 1021 01:05:38,400 --> 01:05:43,240 Speaker 1: medium made the public record easier to determine. But the 1022 01:05:43,280 --> 01:05:48,360 Speaker 1: Internet makes your past mistakes present, and that's unbearable. On 1023 01:05:48,520 --> 01:05:53,760 Speaker 1: February seventeenth, twenty twenty, the Washington Post ran a story headline, 1024 01:05:53,880 --> 01:05:58,120 Speaker 1: Tom Cotton keeps repeating a coronavirus conspiracy theory that was 1025 01:05:58,160 --> 01:06:02,480 Speaker 1: already debunked. Recently, the headline and some of the texts 1026 01:06:02,520 --> 01:06:05,360 Speaker 1: have been changed to say that the senator from Arkansas 1027 01:06:05,880 --> 01:06:10,680 Speaker 1: keeps repeating a coronavirus fringe theory that scientists have disputed. 1028 01:06:11,240 --> 01:06:14,040 Speaker 1: The memory of the original headline is half embedded in 1029 01:06:14,080 --> 01:06:18,880 Speaker 1: the uro which still has the word conspiracy. Basically, the 1030 01:06:19,040 --> 01:06:23,840 Speaker 1: incoming Biden administration has authorized an investigation into the lab 1031 01:06:23,960 --> 01:06:29,400 Speaker 1: league theory of COVID nineteen's origins. Facebook has subsequently stopped 1032 01:06:29,480 --> 01:06:33,400 Speaker 1: memory holding posts suggesting that COVID nineteen may have an 1033 01:06:33,400 --> 01:06:36,680 Speaker 1: origin in a lab and the Washington Post is saving 1034 01:06:36,720 --> 01:06:40,760 Speaker 1: the honor of our unchallengeable, unchallengeable ruler, which is not 1035 01:06:40,880 --> 01:06:46,880 Speaker 1: Joe Biden. Isn't it amazing? You see what's happened here? 1036 01:06:46,920 --> 01:06:49,840 Speaker 1: You know it's through very good piece by Michael Brendan Doherty. 1037 01:06:51,560 --> 01:06:56,360 Speaker 1: They are not only elevating some narratives and storylines over 1038 01:06:56,440 --> 01:07:00,680 Speaker 1: others in the most flagrantly partisan and obviously political way. 1039 01:07:01,040 --> 01:07:03,640 Speaker 1: But now they're just going to start changing what was said, 1040 01:07:03,720 --> 01:07:06,480 Speaker 1: changing the headlines at way after the fact. This isn't 1041 01:07:06,480 --> 01:07:10,400 Speaker 1: a headline change meant to generate additional traffic the day 1042 01:07:10,440 --> 01:07:14,400 Speaker 1: of a piece. That happens. That's standard practice. This is 1043 01:07:14,480 --> 01:07:17,400 Speaker 1: oh gosh, that headline from a year ago is embarrassing. 1044 01:07:17,480 --> 01:07:22,920 Speaker 1: Let's just change it, say, with something else. In twenty 1045 01:07:23,000 --> 01:07:26,720 Speaker 1: twenty one, Michael writes, our ruler is the illusion of 1046 01:07:26,760 --> 01:07:31,919 Speaker 1: an infallible expert consensus which is mediated to a supposedly 1047 01:07:32,040 --> 01:07:36,160 Speaker 1: raging and stupid American public by self described clever and 1048 01:07:36,240 --> 01:07:40,800 Speaker 1: public spirited journalists, and then hopefully, in their view, encoded 1049 01:07:40,840 --> 01:07:44,320 Speaker 1: into the algorithms of social media. Having learned his lesson 1050 01:07:44,320 --> 01:07:48,240 Speaker 1: about twenty sixteen the hard way by suffering the disapproval 1051 01:07:48,240 --> 01:07:52,760 Speaker 1: of Barack Obama and his own woke workforce, Mark Zuckerberg 1052 01:07:52,840 --> 01:07:55,280 Speaker 1: is now tasked with the work that Jesus put off 1053 01:07:55,680 --> 01:07:57,960 Speaker 1: until the general judgment at the end of the world, 1054 01:07:58,400 --> 01:08:03,440 Speaker 1: dividing us all into sheep and goats. We are in 1055 01:08:03,520 --> 01:08:10,040 Speaker 1: an era of unprecedented propaganda machinery, and one side has 1056 01:08:10,200 --> 01:08:16,600 Speaker 1: seized the commanding heights of those mechanisms, so much so 1057 01:08:16,720 --> 01:08:19,240 Speaker 1: that not only can they elevate what they want and 1058 01:08:19,320 --> 01:08:22,320 Speaker 1: suppress what they don't, but they can change our perception 1059 01:08:22,560 --> 01:08:28,160 Speaker 1: of communication reality itself by altering headlines, by doing things 1060 01:08:28,240 --> 01:08:32,560 Speaker 1: that you would think would be, on their face violations 1061 01:08:32,560 --> 01:08:38,240 Speaker 1: of journalistic ethics, but instead they justify as necessary as 1062 01:08:38,280 --> 01:08:42,000 Speaker 1: part of the hashtag resistance, necessary as a means of 1063 01:08:42,360 --> 01:08:46,880 Speaker 1: pushing back against the predations of Donald Trump. Whatever that 1064 01:08:46,960 --> 01:08:50,280 Speaker 1: means for their professional goals, whatever that means for what 1065 01:08:50,320 --> 01:08:53,639 Speaker 1: they're supposed to be doing every day, doesn't matter. Always 1066 01:08:53,640 --> 01:08:57,000 Speaker 1: told you what's goal number one. Pursue power, true for 1067 01:08:57,040 --> 01:09:00,200 Speaker 1: all democrats, not just journalists. Pursue power. Have it it, 1068 01:09:00,280 --> 01:09:04,639 Speaker 1: wield it, get it. Those are the goals what they 1069 01:09:04,680 --> 01:09:07,200 Speaker 1: have to do to get there. It's just a question 1070 01:09:07,240 --> 01:09:12,559 Speaker 1: figuring it out. Without qualified immunity, how do you get 1071 01:09:12,720 --> 01:09:15,680 Speaker 1: people to do law enforcement work. There's a bill that's 1072 01:09:15,720 --> 01:09:19,720 Speaker 1: past the House of Representatives that would eliminate qualified immunity, 1073 01:09:19,720 --> 01:09:21,640 Speaker 1: And for those of you who are not familiar with that, 1074 01:09:21,640 --> 01:09:25,200 Speaker 1: that means every police officer would be subject to being 1075 01:09:25,280 --> 01:09:29,800 Speaker 1: sued personally, which would mean that law enforcement in America 1076 01:09:29,880 --> 01:09:35,519 Speaker 1: would cease to be effective because you would have so 1077 01:09:35,560 --> 01:09:37,839 Speaker 1: many people that wouldn't want to do the job anymore, 1078 01:09:38,600 --> 01:09:41,439 Speaker 1: and you'd have so many cops who quit, so they 1079 01:09:41,439 --> 01:09:44,880 Speaker 1: would leave, or they just wouldn't join up in the 1080 01:09:44,920 --> 01:09:49,160 Speaker 1: first place. There must be activists in the Democrat Party 1081 01:09:49,160 --> 01:09:52,040 Speaker 1: who are smart enough to understand this, and in a 1082 01:09:52,120 --> 01:09:54,519 Speaker 1: sense that's almost more terrifying, because what it tells you 1083 01:09:54,640 --> 01:09:59,920 Speaker 1: is they don't care. This is a price. More murders, more, 1084 01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:05,559 Speaker 1: more burglaries, more rapes, more and more violent assaults. That's 1085 01:10:05,640 --> 01:10:08,840 Speaker 1: the price the Democrats are willing to pay in order 1086 01:10:08,880 --> 01:10:12,839 Speaker 1: to seem like they're addressing the concerns of the BLM 1087 01:10:12,960 --> 01:10:20,080 Speaker 1: movement and standing up for by BYPOC communities right, Black 1088 01:10:20,160 --> 01:10:24,479 Speaker 1: Indigenous people of color BYPOC new acronym I learned recently 1089 01:10:24,479 --> 01:10:26,160 Speaker 1: which I have to use now just a way. I 1090 01:10:26,240 --> 01:10:30,120 Speaker 1: don't forget it. But McConnell is right that qualified immunity 1091 01:10:30,160 --> 01:10:35,040 Speaker 1: without that police work becomes essentially an intolerable risk for 1092 01:10:35,160 --> 01:10:38,400 Speaker 1: most people. And it just goes to show you how 1093 01:10:38,560 --> 01:10:44,120 Speaker 1: absurd and how crazy the Democrats have really gotten. Oh 1094 01:10:44,120 --> 01:10:45,960 Speaker 1: on the I meant to get to this before Jason 1095 01:10:46,000 --> 01:10:50,360 Speaker 1: Chaffetz said this. I do think we're gonna reach racism 1096 01:10:50,640 --> 01:10:55,040 Speaker 1: hysteria fatigue at some point. I'm not I don't think 1097 01:10:55,040 --> 01:10:58,160 Speaker 1: we're there yet, but it's gonna grow. We're really sick, 1098 01:10:58,240 --> 01:11:02,400 Speaker 1: we should be really sick of getting constant lectures from 1099 01:11:02,520 --> 01:11:07,280 Speaker 1: Joe Biden about race relations. Play seven. I think we 1100 01:11:07,360 --> 01:11:10,160 Speaker 1: have a history, and not all of our history in 1101 01:11:10,200 --> 01:11:12,880 Speaker 1: the United States is a pretty one, and I'm not 1102 01:11:12,960 --> 01:11:17,720 Speaker 1: afraid of acknowledging that and learning about that. But to 1103 01:11:17,840 --> 01:11:20,120 Speaker 1: push it to the degree and the direction that the 1104 01:11:20,160 --> 01:11:22,680 Speaker 1: President is trying to do, I think is wrong. I 1105 01:11:22,760 --> 01:11:26,680 Speaker 1: look at today's immigration policies. I think people understand that 1106 01:11:26,680 --> 01:11:29,439 Speaker 1: we need to protect our borders. But when he doesn't, 1107 01:11:29,479 --> 01:11:32,080 Speaker 1: when he just allows this free flow of people into 1108 01:11:32,120 --> 01:11:36,840 Speaker 1: the country and gives them advantage over Americans, that again 1109 01:11:36,960 --> 01:11:40,280 Speaker 1: divides us. So I don't know exactly what his goal is. 1110 01:11:40,320 --> 01:11:43,879 Speaker 1: I think he's listening to the far radical left side 1111 01:11:44,560 --> 01:11:47,720 Speaker 1: of the equation who are asking for things that I 1112 01:11:47,840 --> 01:11:51,040 Speaker 1: just don't think are palatable. I think America is tired 1113 01:11:51,080 --> 01:11:54,120 Speaker 1: of being told that it's racist. I know I'm not racist. 1114 01:11:54,120 --> 01:11:56,519 Speaker 1: I know my family's not racist. I know most of 1115 01:11:56,520 --> 01:11:58,920 Speaker 1: my friends aren't racist, and if they were racist, I 1116 01:11:58,920 --> 01:12:02,360 Speaker 1: wouldn't hang out with that. So America is tired of that, 1117 01:12:02,520 --> 01:12:07,639 Speaker 1: create opportunities and allow people to thrive, and stop taking 1118 01:12:07,680 --> 01:12:11,320 Speaker 1: Americans money and then handing it out the way they 1119 01:12:11,439 --> 01:12:15,280 Speaker 1: see fit, and do it in an equal basis. If 1120 01:12:15,280 --> 01:12:18,080 Speaker 1: you keep telling people that we're divided, guess what we're 1121 01:12:18,080 --> 01:12:21,000 Speaker 1: going to be divided. That's not the vision of Martin 1122 01:12:21,080 --> 01:12:23,960 Speaker 1: Luther King. That wasn't the vision that I heard from 1123 01:12:23,960 --> 01:12:26,800 Speaker 1: other civic leaders. But I hear from Biden more than 1124 01:12:26,800 --> 01:12:31,759 Speaker 1: I hear anybody else. Is that because Biden doesn't understand 1125 01:12:31,800 --> 01:12:34,000 Speaker 1: what's happening, or is he getting exactly what he wants? 1126 01:12:34,040 --> 01:12:36,960 Speaker 1: Which is this division that Jason Chaffitz was talking about. There. 1127 01:12:38,160 --> 01:12:40,639 Speaker 1: That's what you have to remember. We no longer have 1128 01:12:40,840 --> 01:12:44,799 Speaker 1: two parties in this country that want the same things, 1129 01:12:45,479 --> 01:12:48,080 Speaker 1: but just want to use different approaches and have different 1130 01:12:48,120 --> 01:12:50,080 Speaker 1: views of the law in the Constitution to get there. 1131 01:12:50,800 --> 01:12:55,800 Speaker 1: We want, we want fundamentally different in many ways outcomes 1132 01:12:55,880 --> 01:13:01,439 Speaker 1: for American society from the Democrats want different outcomes insofar 1133 01:13:01,520 --> 01:13:04,400 Speaker 1: as we don't we don't want any discrimination on the 1134 01:13:04,400 --> 01:13:07,680 Speaker 1: basis of race, and we don't want any systems. We 1135 01:13:07,720 --> 01:13:12,840 Speaker 1: don't want any mechanisms in place for making determinations based 1136 01:13:12,920 --> 01:13:16,720 Speaker 1: upon skin color. We reject that out of hand. So 1137 01:13:16,800 --> 01:13:20,400 Speaker 1: this isn't's a a just a disagreement that you can say, well, 1138 01:13:20,439 --> 01:13:22,040 Speaker 1: it doesn't make that big a difference. It makes a 1139 01:13:22,120 --> 01:13:27,559 Speaker 1: huge difference. It makes a huge difference. You know, Kamala is. 1140 01:13:27,880 --> 01:13:29,920 Speaker 1: I just noted this at the top of the show, 1141 01:13:29,960 --> 01:13:34,360 Speaker 1: and I wanted to say, Kamala is backing away from 1142 01:13:34,560 --> 01:13:37,160 Speaker 1: her role as borders are, which is pretty incredible. You know, 1143 01:13:37,200 --> 01:13:39,800 Speaker 1: they just got rid of officially got rid of the 1144 01:13:39,880 --> 01:13:45,080 Speaker 1: remain in Mexico policy of the Trump administration. Anyone who 1145 01:13:45,160 --> 01:13:48,000 Speaker 1: understands how our border currently functions and what's going on 1146 01:13:48,040 --> 01:13:50,799 Speaker 1: there will tell you that not only is the situation 1147 01:13:50,880 --> 01:13:54,599 Speaker 1: they're out of control, but it's not going to get 1148 01:13:54,640 --> 01:13:57,840 Speaker 1: better because the things that the Democrats would have to 1149 01:13:57,880 --> 01:13:59,920 Speaker 1: do to make it better, the actions that Joe Bay 1150 01:14:00,000 --> 01:14:04,360 Speaker 1: and Gonna have to take to improve things are in 1151 01:14:04,479 --> 01:14:07,160 Speaker 1: line with what Trump was doing. And that is a 1152 01:14:07,200 --> 01:14:13,360 Speaker 1: concession that the Democrats are not willing to make. They'll 1153 01:14:13,400 --> 01:14:15,599 Speaker 1: never say that Trump was right on the border. Can 1154 01:14:15,600 --> 01:14:21,760 Speaker 1: you imagine this would this would completely melt their faces off, right. 1155 01:14:21,800 --> 01:14:24,120 Speaker 1: The Democrats will never admit this. They'll never say that 1156 01:14:24,120 --> 01:14:26,880 Speaker 1: that's what happened. But then what do they do, because 1157 01:14:26,920 --> 01:14:29,759 Speaker 1: the only way is to fix the crisis of the border. 1158 01:14:30,280 --> 01:14:33,080 Speaker 1: Are the ways the Trump administration took in the past, Well, 1159 01:14:33,120 --> 01:14:36,120 Speaker 1: you can just take the Kammal approach, which is moving 1160 01:14:36,160 --> 01:14:40,840 Speaker 1: on to something else, distancing herself from the fraught situation 1161 01:14:40,920 --> 01:14:43,559 Speaker 1: of the border. Is the CNN. That's the very gentle 1162 01:14:43,600 --> 01:14:47,519 Speaker 1: CNNA headline. Yeah, she doesn't want to be dealing with 1163 01:14:47,560 --> 01:14:51,360 Speaker 1: this because it's going to be a loss when all's 1164 01:14:51,360 --> 01:14:53,760 Speaker 1: said and done. She will not secure the border, she 1165 01:14:53,840 --> 01:14:56,639 Speaker 1: will not do what is necessary, and so if she 1166 01:14:56,760 --> 01:15:00,559 Speaker 1: was tasked with that, it becomes a major challenge. President 1167 01:15:03,439 --> 01:15:10,480 Speaker 1: brandishing torches hate crimes against Asian and Jewish Americans, reminders 1168 01:15:10,680 --> 01:15:16,360 Speaker 1: that white supremacism, white terror is the most lethal threat 1169 01:15:16,439 --> 01:15:20,639 Speaker 1: to our homeland today. What really should scare us all 1170 01:15:21,479 --> 01:15:24,880 Speaker 1: is that never in the modern era have we seen 1171 01:15:24,960 --> 01:15:27,240 Speaker 1: what should be relegated to the fringes. You know they're 1172 01:15:27,280 --> 01:15:31,400 Speaker 1: neo Nazis, you know they're white supremacists, but they've always 1173 01:15:31,439 --> 01:15:35,680 Speaker 1: been kept in the modern era on the fringes of society. 1174 01:15:36,040 --> 01:15:38,320 Speaker 1: Stay where you're supposed to be, in the shadows. You 1175 01:15:38,400 --> 01:15:41,280 Speaker 1: deserve nothing else. You have the right to speak, but 1176 01:15:41,360 --> 01:15:43,519 Speaker 1: what you say is not right, and we will not 1177 01:15:43,600 --> 01:15:49,280 Speaker 1: regard it as such. Abject bigotry. Now it is at 1178 01:15:49,360 --> 01:15:55,920 Speaker 1: worst embraced and at least minimized by an entire political party. 1179 01:15:57,240 --> 01:16:04,280 Speaker 1: I see, the Republican Party is all guilty, all tied 1180 01:16:04,320 --> 01:16:08,040 Speaker 1: in at some level, all at least minimizing, if not embracing, 1181 01:16:08,800 --> 01:16:11,280 Speaker 1: Neo Nazism and white supremacy. This is from a CNN 1182 01:16:11,360 --> 01:16:13,240 Speaker 1: anchor who is a moron who would be nowhere in 1183 01:16:13,280 --> 01:16:17,120 Speaker 1: life without his last name. But nonetheless, let's address this 1184 01:16:17,720 --> 01:16:21,000 Speaker 1: with my friend Kurt Schlichter. He is a senior columnist 1185 01:16:21,080 --> 01:16:24,800 Speaker 1: at townhall dot com, a lawyer, and a veteran of 1186 01:16:24,840 --> 01:16:28,400 Speaker 1: the United States Army. Kurt, great to have you as always, 1187 01:16:29,040 --> 01:16:31,960 Speaker 1: Oh great to be her back and of course, listening 1188 01:16:31,960 --> 01:16:36,479 Speaker 1: to the ato of the Cuomo family, he's smart, not 1189 01:16:36,600 --> 01:16:40,280 Speaker 1: dumb like everyone says. He's smart. Any wants respect. You 1190 01:16:40,280 --> 01:16:43,800 Speaker 1: know that. You know that he on video referred to 1191 01:16:43,840 --> 01:16:47,960 Speaker 1: being called Fredo as like an ethnic slur and instead 1192 01:16:47,960 --> 01:16:50,200 Speaker 1: of a funny movie reference about the fact that he's 1193 01:16:50,360 --> 01:16:54,840 Speaker 1: a buffoonish brother. Well, if it is an ethnic clur, 1194 01:16:55,200 --> 01:16:58,280 Speaker 1: so what I mean? Did he just doesn't His whole 1195 01:16:58,760 --> 01:17:02,280 Speaker 1: whole clip isn't his whole flip an ethnic slur. I mean, 1196 01:17:02,360 --> 01:17:05,280 Speaker 1: what are the rules black? I'm very confused. Now, I 1197 01:17:06,560 --> 01:17:09,280 Speaker 1: am less concerned with what the rules are than that 1198 01:17:09,360 --> 01:17:12,680 Speaker 1: there'll be one unset up. And he seems to think 1199 01:17:12,720 --> 01:17:15,920 Speaker 1: it's okay. He just did it. He accused an entire 1200 01:17:16,040 --> 01:17:20,759 Speaker 1: race of a certain crime, not differentiating between people, exaction, 1201 01:17:20,720 --> 01:17:23,960 Speaker 1: so forth, which you know in the real world is 1202 01:17:24,040 --> 01:17:28,000 Speaker 1: called racism. Um, So why would be wrong to call 1203 01:17:28,080 --> 01:17:31,040 Speaker 1: him fredo even if it was an ethnic sir? Is? 1204 01:17:31,520 --> 01:17:35,400 Speaker 1: Why is one right and one wrong? I'm very con well. 1205 01:17:35,520 --> 01:17:38,439 Speaker 1: I think it's also it's troubling that you see that 1206 01:17:38,600 --> 01:17:44,439 Speaker 1: Biden keeps returning to this. The clearly Democrats believe that 1207 01:17:44,520 --> 01:17:48,760 Speaker 1: the exaggeration of the threat of white supremacist terrorism and 1208 01:17:48,880 --> 01:17:53,400 Speaker 1: another insurrection, this is a central narrative for this president. Yeah, 1209 01:17:53,600 --> 01:17:56,800 Speaker 1: there's a central narrative here for the Democrats. And that 1210 01:17:56,880 --> 01:18:00,320 Speaker 1: should give everybody some some some real concern or who 1211 01:18:00,360 --> 01:18:02,519 Speaker 1: cares for the future of the country, because I mean, 1212 01:18:02,560 --> 01:18:06,919 Speaker 1: this is this is idiot slandering of everybody who's a conservative, 1213 01:18:07,000 --> 01:18:09,840 Speaker 1: everybody on the right, and it's intentional. And these are 1214 01:18:09,880 --> 01:18:13,040 Speaker 1: people that have shown a real authority. These are leftist 1215 01:18:13,120 --> 01:18:16,200 Speaker 1: Democrats who have shown a real authoritarian streak for the 1216 01:18:16,240 --> 01:18:19,160 Speaker 1: last fifteen months. Well you know what it is, Buck, 1217 01:18:19,280 --> 01:18:22,519 Speaker 1: is it short term thinking? Because they think, Wow, in 1218 01:18:22,640 --> 01:18:25,599 Speaker 1: this next election, I will be able to motivate this 1219 01:18:26,040 --> 01:18:30,720 Speaker 1: part of my base with these bizarre accusations. Now, you're right, 1220 01:18:30,800 --> 01:18:33,880 Speaker 1: this is troubling, especially to those of us who served 1221 01:18:33,920 --> 01:18:39,200 Speaker 1: in the Balkans because their ethnicity was everything. One of 1222 01:18:39,240 --> 01:18:43,320 Speaker 1: the greatest achievements of America was that the majority ethnic 1223 01:18:43,360 --> 01:18:46,280 Speaker 1: group did not think of itself as a cohesidethnic group, 1224 01:18:48,200 --> 01:18:52,639 Speaker 1: you know, white Americans, whatever that means. Because I think 1225 01:18:52,720 --> 01:18:59,479 Speaker 1: racial categories are generally stupid and don't reflect reality. I mean, 1226 01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:03,000 Speaker 1: what are my kids. My wife's Cuban, I'm German, Scottish? 1227 01:19:03,080 --> 01:19:06,799 Speaker 1: What are my kids? If you get past the premise 1228 01:19:06,840 --> 01:19:10,560 Speaker 1: that you should put people into categories, which I reject categorically, 1229 01:19:11,160 --> 01:19:14,680 Speaker 1: but well, yeah, whiteness is also a very broad and 1230 01:19:14,800 --> 01:19:17,120 Speaker 1: very sloppy category. I mean, as I've I've had to 1231 01:19:17,120 --> 01:19:20,719 Speaker 1: point out before on this show, if it's about skin color, 1232 01:19:21,640 --> 01:19:26,000 Speaker 1: and I mean explicitly skin color, then you've got people 1233 01:19:26,200 --> 01:19:31,360 Speaker 1: who come from Afghanistan who have blue eyes and red hair. 1234 01:19:31,560 --> 01:19:35,040 Speaker 1: You've got people from North Africa who are blue eyed 1235 01:19:35,080 --> 01:19:38,280 Speaker 1: and a blue eyed and blonde hair. I mean, it's 1236 01:19:38,280 --> 01:19:42,599 Speaker 1: just absurd, it's stupid, and it's the kind of thing 1237 01:19:42,640 --> 01:19:45,679 Speaker 1: stupid people do. It's a kind of thing that are 1238 01:19:45,920 --> 01:19:48,880 Speaker 1: uneducated in lead and yeah they have our VA League degrees, 1239 01:19:48,920 --> 01:19:52,080 Speaker 1: but they are absolutely uneducated about the world. Like I said, 1240 01:19:52,080 --> 01:19:55,080 Speaker 1: the gless achievement, well grass achievements in the United States 1241 01:19:55,320 --> 01:19:58,559 Speaker 1: was that its major ethnic group cannot consider itself an 1242 01:19:58,600 --> 01:20:02,599 Speaker 1: ethnic group in the sense didn't identify and unify. So 1243 01:20:02,760 --> 01:20:07,240 Speaker 1: they're taking a position that would encourage those people to 1244 01:20:07,360 --> 01:20:12,880 Speaker 1: suddenly identify themselves by color and band together. That's insane, 1245 01:20:13,479 --> 01:20:16,720 Speaker 1: that's that's that's literal madness. But they think in the 1246 01:20:16,760 --> 01:20:20,880 Speaker 1: short term it'll work in the long term. The problem 1247 01:20:20,960 --> 01:20:25,000 Speaker 1: with our liberal lead buck is they believe the world 1248 01:20:25,120 --> 01:20:29,320 Speaker 1: is static. They believe, you know, if things aren't working 1249 01:20:29,360 --> 01:20:31,839 Speaker 1: out the way they are, they can change some rules 1250 01:20:32,360 --> 01:20:36,320 Speaker 1: and get the advantage of it while retaining the protection 1251 01:20:36,360 --> 01:20:41,080 Speaker 1: of the old rules. And that's the problem. As you 1252 01:20:41,160 --> 01:20:44,680 Speaker 1: know from your time working with military folks as a 1253 01:20:44,760 --> 01:20:48,439 Speaker 1: CIA officer, the enemy gets a vote, the other side 1254 01:20:48,840 --> 01:20:53,720 Speaker 1: does things. It doesn't remain static. It's not like a 1255 01:20:53,760 --> 01:20:56,720 Speaker 1: bunch of you know, most of America's going to go. Well, 1256 01:20:57,000 --> 01:20:59,080 Speaker 1: you know, they labeled me its terrorist. I guess I 1257 01:20:59,160 --> 01:21:02,720 Speaker 1: better shrug. I'm a surf. Doesn't w look like that? 1258 01:21:03,040 --> 01:21:08,559 Speaker 1: How could they even imagine it? Instead, the terrible logic 1259 01:21:08,800 --> 01:21:15,519 Speaker 1: of them is a racial conflict, racial balkanization, and that 1260 01:21:15,720 --> 01:21:18,360 Speaker 1: you know, like I said, I served in Kosovo. I 1261 01:21:18,439 --> 01:21:20,120 Speaker 1: know what that looks like at the bottom of the 1262 01:21:20,120 --> 01:21:24,440 Speaker 1: slippery slope. These people are not just stupid, they're dangerous. 1263 01:21:25,280 --> 01:21:29,160 Speaker 1: We're speaking of Kurt Schlichterer, senior columnist at townhall dot 1264 01:21:29,200 --> 01:21:33,679 Speaker 1: com and a military veteran, And Kurt, you know, the 1265 01:21:33,680 --> 01:21:39,559 Speaker 1: the Biden administration really likes to push this narrative whenever 1266 01:21:39,600 --> 01:21:42,519 Speaker 1: they get the opportunity, and I just I have to 1267 01:21:42,520 --> 01:21:47,560 Speaker 1: wonder at what point it becomes too obvious, too opportunistic 1268 01:21:48,120 --> 01:21:50,599 Speaker 1: when you see that Joe Biden is a rich, old 1269 01:21:50,640 --> 01:21:53,479 Speaker 1: white millionaire. Okay, this is this is a guy. He's 1270 01:21:53,520 --> 01:21:56,639 Speaker 1: from Delaware. This guy does not care about the struggle 1271 01:21:56,720 --> 01:22:00,400 Speaker 1: of BYPOC communities. This guy is not in hutch in 1272 01:22:00,479 --> 01:22:03,839 Speaker 1: some way with that doesn't have some deep understanding of racism. 1273 01:22:03,840 --> 01:22:06,000 Speaker 1: If anything, you look back at his at his history 1274 01:22:06,000 --> 01:22:10,840 Speaker 1: and politics. He's got some sketchy associations with Democrats, who, 1275 01:22:10,880 --> 01:22:14,080 Speaker 1: as we know, include Democrats like Senator Robert Byrd formerly 1276 01:22:14,120 --> 01:22:18,280 Speaker 1: of the KKK, and and others who always get a 1277 01:22:18,360 --> 01:22:23,439 Speaker 1: pass for their you know, their racial or racist transgressions. 1278 01:22:24,080 --> 01:22:27,680 Speaker 1: I mean Bidens as the great hero of of wokeness 1279 01:22:27,760 --> 01:22:30,560 Speaker 1: and social justice. I mean, this is this is appallingly 1280 01:22:31,280 --> 01:22:34,680 Speaker 1: flimsy and stupid, but yet it's a central narrative of 1281 01:22:34,720 --> 01:22:39,840 Speaker 1: this presidency. It is it's cheap and lazy, and they 1282 01:22:39,880 --> 01:22:41,920 Speaker 1: think it's going to help them in the short term, 1283 01:22:43,040 --> 01:22:50,639 Speaker 1: but it's not. It's simply going to uh reinforce vision 1284 01:22:51,040 --> 01:22:54,799 Speaker 1: and it's not going to divide necessarily the way they 1285 01:22:54,840 --> 01:22:58,479 Speaker 1: want it to. You know, you let this genie of 1286 01:22:58,479 --> 01:23:02,400 Speaker 1: the bottle and you know he's going to grant wishes, 1287 01:23:02,400 --> 01:23:06,200 Speaker 1: but they might not be yours. Speaking to Kurt Schlick 1288 01:23:06,240 --> 01:23:10,080 Speaker 1: there here senior commists at townhall dot com and Kurt 1289 01:23:10,840 --> 01:23:17,280 Speaker 1: the the talk of of insurrection still continues on here. 1290 01:23:17,680 --> 01:23:21,200 Speaker 1: We have, finally, in recent weeks, the National Guard presence 1291 01:23:21,240 --> 01:23:26,280 Speaker 1: at Capitol Hill ended, which was the whole thing was 1292 01:23:26,360 --> 01:23:31,080 Speaker 1: so absurd and stupid. You have people who, meaning the 1293 01:23:31,080 --> 01:23:34,400 Speaker 1: the deployment of thousands of soldiers. I mean, DC is 1294 01:23:34,400 --> 01:23:38,679 Speaker 1: an armed camp. Congress was back in session hours after 1295 01:23:38,720 --> 01:23:41,720 Speaker 1: the so called insurrection. Everything you know, worked out in 1296 01:23:41,760 --> 01:23:46,679 Speaker 1: the end, you know, with people getting arrested who broke 1297 01:23:46,760 --> 01:23:50,360 Speaker 1: the law, people being now they're being held in solitary 1298 01:23:50,400 --> 01:23:54,760 Speaker 1: confinement actually well under the threat of another insurrection, And 1299 01:23:54,800 --> 01:23:57,320 Speaker 1: I just it feels like this is the Russia collusion 1300 01:23:57,400 --> 01:24:00,679 Speaker 1: crazy in in just a different context. Now, a giant 1301 01:24:00,760 --> 01:24:04,640 Speaker 1: lie that's used as a huge club to bludgeon the 1302 01:24:04,760 --> 01:24:08,000 Speaker 1: Democrats political opponents, and the whole corporate media apparatus is 1303 01:24:08,040 --> 01:24:10,080 Speaker 1: on board for it. Yes, it was a riot, it 1304 01:24:10,120 --> 01:24:13,200 Speaker 1: was bad, it was stupid. It wasn't an attempt to 1305 01:24:13,320 --> 01:24:17,400 Speaker 1: overthrow the United States government that the Republican Party was 1306 01:24:17,479 --> 01:24:23,360 Speaker 1: backing and wanted to actually happen. Oh, look, only idiots 1307 01:24:23,360 --> 01:24:25,840 Speaker 1: believe that. Most normal people are like, yeah, I've seen 1308 01:24:26,040 --> 01:24:33,240 Speaker 1: I've seen rowdy or frat parties. But the problem that 1309 01:24:33,360 --> 01:24:37,120 Speaker 1: you touched on is the dual justice issue. These guys 1310 01:24:37,160 --> 01:24:40,120 Speaker 1: are being persecuted. But you know, you attack a courthouse 1311 01:24:40,120 --> 01:24:43,600 Speaker 1: in Portland for month after month after month, Yeah, and 1312 01:24:43,600 --> 01:24:46,920 Speaker 1: then you get your charges dismiss charges dropped. You can't 1313 01:24:46,920 --> 01:24:50,000 Speaker 1: have two systems of justice. You can't have two sets 1314 01:24:50,000 --> 01:24:52,000 Speaker 1: of rules, which is why I think it's so important 1315 01:24:52,000 --> 01:24:54,680 Speaker 1: the President, to Santis or whoever comes in as a 1316 01:24:54,720 --> 01:24:58,479 Speaker 1: Republican pardon every single one of these people who was arrested, 1317 01:24:58,760 --> 01:25:01,360 Speaker 1: not because they didn't do some think stupid I think 1318 01:25:01,400 --> 01:25:05,280 Speaker 1: some of them did some stupid stuff, but because we 1319 01:25:05,479 --> 01:25:08,920 Speaker 1: cannot allow a dual system of justice, they would be 1320 01:25:08,960 --> 01:25:13,840 Speaker 1: pardoned so that the you know, the their consequences matched 1321 01:25:15,040 --> 01:25:20,519 Speaker 1: matched those of the Democrats. Friends, I think I'm just 1322 01:25:20,520 --> 01:25:22,800 Speaker 1: gonna put an idea out to you, Kurt. I think 1323 01:25:22,800 --> 01:25:31,360 Speaker 1: that emotional instability and hysteria are central characteristics, foundational characteristics 1324 01:25:31,400 --> 01:25:34,000 Speaker 1: of the Democrat Party in America today. What do you think? 1325 01:25:34,160 --> 01:25:36,439 Speaker 1: I think. I think you're correct, Buck. I write about 1326 01:25:36,439 --> 01:25:41,040 Speaker 1: this tomorrow in my town hall column. Um. Look, these 1327 01:25:41,080 --> 01:25:45,080 Speaker 1: are primarily pampered Ivy league folks. They're not like you 1328 01:25:45,160 --> 01:25:49,120 Speaker 1: and me. They never deployed, they've never had done anything 1329 01:25:49,160 --> 01:25:52,040 Speaker 1: difficult there, I mean, their their life path is. You know, 1330 01:25:52,080 --> 01:25:54,040 Speaker 1: I was in college, I was at grad school that 1331 01:25:54,160 --> 01:25:55,840 Speaker 1: I wrote for Box and now I write for the 1332 01:25:55,880 --> 01:26:00,680 Speaker 1: Washington Post. Okay, hardly you know these guys are not 1333 01:26:00,960 --> 01:26:06,200 Speaker 1: tempered on the forge of life and death challenges. Instead, 1334 01:26:06,280 --> 01:26:09,479 Speaker 1: they've had a very easy life but normal. But people 1335 01:26:09,640 --> 01:26:14,600 Speaker 1: naturally Buck want to challenge. They seek a dragon to slay. 1336 01:26:14,960 --> 01:26:18,839 Speaker 1: These guys have discovered a toothless dragon, and they're pretending 1337 01:26:18,840 --> 01:26:22,240 Speaker 1: they're Saint George. I thought the insurrection, ah, I was 1338 01:26:22,280 --> 01:26:28,080 Speaker 1: general resistance. Never have so many risks so little, with 1339 01:26:28,160 --> 01:26:32,759 Speaker 1: so much self aggrandizement. I think that also ties into 1340 01:26:32,840 --> 01:26:38,920 Speaker 1: why they've taken so much to the extreme fauciite measures, 1341 01:26:39,360 --> 01:26:44,080 Speaker 1: because it was it's it's a mark of they think selflessness, 1342 01:26:44,160 --> 01:26:48,600 Speaker 1: intelligence and bravery to triple mask even after you're vaccinated, 1343 01:26:48,680 --> 01:26:51,559 Speaker 1: going for a bike ride alone in park slope like 1344 01:26:51,680 --> 01:26:54,720 Speaker 1: they think that makes them a good brave person. They 1345 01:26:55,080 --> 01:27:00,559 Speaker 1: actually have taken bravery and defined it an entirely different direction. 1346 01:27:01,080 --> 01:27:03,519 Speaker 1: These you know, we stirred overseas other people who have 1347 01:27:03,560 --> 01:27:05,680 Speaker 1: done other hard, difficult things. People have been cops or 1348 01:27:05,680 --> 01:27:08,720 Speaker 1: over but we've been you know, for for a lot 1349 01:27:08,760 --> 01:27:13,519 Speaker 1: of these people, tough men have created a paradise where 1350 01:27:13,520 --> 01:27:18,120 Speaker 1: they face no real challenges. This is their big challenge, 1351 01:27:18,200 --> 01:27:21,599 Speaker 1: this is their woodstock. There are people Buck who are 1352 01:27:21,640 --> 01:27:24,479 Speaker 1: going to tell their grandchildren expecting to be uh, you know, 1353 01:27:24,520 --> 01:27:26,960 Speaker 1: expecting to be held in awe that they survived the 1354 01:27:27,080 --> 01:27:32,120 Speaker 1: Great Pandemic of twenty twenty. This is the pinnacle for 1355 01:27:32,160 --> 01:27:35,719 Speaker 1: a lot of these people, and they want to milk 1356 01:27:35,760 --> 01:27:38,200 Speaker 1: it because, as you know, when you do something like this, 1357 01:27:38,240 --> 01:27:41,040 Speaker 1: when you like go back to deploy, there's a certain 1358 01:27:41,439 --> 01:27:43,040 Speaker 1: I don't want I don't know if it's excitement, but 1359 01:27:43,120 --> 01:27:47,720 Speaker 1: you feel alive in a way you don't at other times. Right, 1360 01:27:48,560 --> 01:27:50,800 Speaker 1: it's a little bit, Yeah, there's a little edge of fear. 1361 01:27:51,400 --> 01:27:54,519 Speaker 1: You're you're watching history happen. It's exciting. You don't know 1362 01:27:54,560 --> 01:27:58,519 Speaker 1: what's gonna what's gonna go down next. They've never had that. 1363 01:27:58,600 --> 01:28:03,479 Speaker 1: This is it for them, this is you know, they're there. 1364 01:28:03,560 --> 01:28:05,519 Speaker 1: You know, you know there are guys who dropped into 1365 01:28:05,560 --> 01:28:09,880 Speaker 1: Normandy and you know lived lives after, but you know 1366 01:28:10,040 --> 01:28:12,880 Speaker 1: that moment in Normandy is something that they'll always think about. 1367 01:28:13,080 --> 01:28:15,840 Speaker 1: For these people, this is what they'll think about it. God, 1368 01:28:15,840 --> 01:28:19,680 Speaker 1: that's pathetic. Kurchlik Deret. Look for his column tomorrow on 1369 01:28:19,880 --> 01:28:23,120 Speaker 1: townhall dot com. Kurt, good to have you man, talk 1370 01:28:23,120 --> 01:28:27,080 Speaker 1: to you soon. Thanks for having me. Ultimately, we cannot 1371 01:28:27,320 --> 01:28:30,479 Speaker 1: just sit and negotiate forever. We have to get to 1372 01:28:30,600 --> 01:28:33,760 Speaker 1: an end. I was just looking at some stats this morning, John. 1373 01:28:34,000 --> 01:28:38,360 Speaker 1: I mean, China invests ten times as much in infrastructure 1374 01:28:38,400 --> 01:28:40,880 Speaker 1: that the United States does. That's just not tenable for 1375 01:28:40,960 --> 01:28:44,240 Speaker 1: us if we want to lead. China is doing such 1376 01:28:44,240 --> 01:28:47,799 Speaker 1: a better job with their economy. Huh. Jennifer Granholm gave 1377 01:28:47,880 --> 01:28:55,639 Speaker 1: me a break, get out of here. Nonsense. But they've 1378 01:28:55,680 --> 01:29:00,840 Speaker 1: gone from negotiate to do what we want or else right, 1379 01:29:00,960 --> 01:29:05,760 Speaker 1: negotiate or there's gonna be there's gonna be just a 1380 01:29:06,000 --> 01:29:12,040 Speaker 1: steamrolling you. So I gotta tell you it's it's not 1381 01:29:12,120 --> 01:29:17,120 Speaker 1: surprising at all that this Democrat party thinks that it 1382 01:29:17,160 --> 01:29:19,960 Speaker 1: has It has no reason to. It doesn't have to 1383 01:29:20,000 --> 01:29:24,599 Speaker 1: respect the other side. It just expects the other side 1384 01:29:24,640 --> 01:29:30,800 Speaker 1: to comply because there's an emotional, babyish, tantrum based psychology 1385 01:29:30,880 --> 01:29:34,200 Speaker 1: at the heart of the modern Democrat party. Do it 1386 01:29:34,240 --> 01:29:37,040 Speaker 1: because I said so, Do it because I want you 1387 01:29:37,360 --> 01:29:40,400 Speaker 1: to do it. That's all that matters. It's not about 1388 01:29:40,400 --> 01:29:42,479 Speaker 1: a reason. It's not about making a case that people 1389 01:29:42,520 --> 01:29:44,720 Speaker 1: can say, oh, wow, you know what you're You're right 1390 01:29:46,360 --> 01:29:47,960 Speaker 1: something else. I wanted to get to you today. That 1391 01:29:48,360 --> 01:29:52,439 Speaker 1: JBS my actual initials here. It's the biggest meat supplier 1392 01:29:52,439 --> 01:29:55,160 Speaker 1: to America in the world, and there's been a meat 1393 01:29:56,000 --> 01:29:59,880 Speaker 1: hack attack. Here we go see it in some shopper 1394 01:30:00,240 --> 01:30:04,000 Speaker 1: may want to brace themselves for yet another possible supply crunch, 1395 01:30:04,560 --> 01:30:09,120 Speaker 1: this time with meat. Major beef and pork producer JB 1396 01:30:09,640 --> 01:30:14,200 Speaker 1: USA suffered a cyber attack last weekend, prompting reported shutdowns 1397 01:30:14,200 --> 01:30:17,800 Speaker 1: at company plants in North America and Australia. The White 1398 01:30:17,800 --> 01:30:20,479 Speaker 1: House has said the ransomware attack was likely carried out 1399 01:30:20,479 --> 01:30:24,160 Speaker 1: by a Russia based criminal organization and that it is 1400 01:30:24,200 --> 01:30:27,360 Speaker 1: dealing with the Russian government on the matter. The Australian 1401 01:30:27,400 --> 01:30:29,800 Speaker 1: government has said that US law enforcement is taking the 1402 01:30:29,880 --> 01:30:33,200 Speaker 1: lead on investigating the attack. So far, some authorities and 1403 01:30:33,240 --> 01:30:36,639 Speaker 1: trade groups have assured operations will be back to normal 1404 01:30:36,640 --> 01:30:39,880 Speaker 1: as soon as possible, aline concerns of a major disruption, 1405 01:30:39,920 --> 01:30:42,920 Speaker 1: but experts warn it could depend on how quickly the 1406 01:30:42,920 --> 01:30:47,920 Speaker 1: issue is taken care of. You know, Russia. I'm somebody 1407 01:30:47,960 --> 01:30:50,439 Speaker 1: that tries to try to calm everybody down after all 1408 01:30:50,479 --> 01:30:53,120 Speaker 1: the Russia hysteria. But you know, if Russia messes with 1409 01:30:53,200 --> 01:30:56,479 Speaker 1: our meat supply, when you start cutting me off from 1410 01:30:56,479 --> 01:31:00,400 Speaker 1: a Hamburgers and ma tee bone steaks, I get upset 1411 01:31:00,479 --> 01:31:04,439 Speaker 1: about things. So I'm telling you Russia, there there's some 1412 01:31:04,479 --> 01:31:06,880 Speaker 1: stuff you don't want to mess with. And when you 1413 01:31:06,960 --> 01:31:11,720 Speaker 1: get between an American and his pound of bacon or 1414 01:31:11,880 --> 01:31:16,719 Speaker 1: his you know, filet mignon, if you want to go fancy, 1415 01:31:17,600 --> 01:31:20,559 Speaker 1: you're playing with fire. But you'll see more of this 1416 01:31:21,439 --> 01:31:27,200 Speaker 1: hackers on foreign soil who demand ransom money from companies 1417 01:31:27,240 --> 01:31:30,000 Speaker 1: once they get into their systems and places are going 1418 01:31:30,040 --> 01:31:33,240 Speaker 1: to pay it. That's the part of this that doesn't 1419 01:31:33,360 --> 01:31:36,439 Speaker 1: get the focus in the media that maybe it needs 1420 01:31:36,439 --> 01:31:40,639 Speaker 1: to severyone understands that this stuff, these tactics work very 1421 01:31:40,640 --> 01:31:44,759 Speaker 1: well for these hackers, but endangering our meat supply, that's 1422 01:31:45,760 --> 01:31:48,519 Speaker 1: that's something that just goes too far for me. What 1423 01:31:48,520 --> 01:31:50,920 Speaker 1: am I gonna do. I'm gonna eat Tofu all day 1424 01:31:50,760 --> 01:31:55,439 Speaker 1: and eat saitan. You know, all these meat, these burger 1425 01:31:55,479 --> 01:31:58,080 Speaker 1: replacements that are out there, none of them, none of 1426 01:31:58,080 --> 01:32:01,439 Speaker 1: them really taste anything like a burger. A Burgher's way better. 1427 01:32:02,040 --> 01:32:04,479 Speaker 1: I don't know why we have to pretend there's all 1428 01:32:04,479 --> 01:32:06,479 Speaker 1: these companies that get funded, they get all this money 1429 01:32:06,520 --> 01:32:08,720 Speaker 1: to come up with you know, oh, we've replaced meat. No, 1430 01:32:09,040 --> 01:32:12,280 Speaker 1: you have not. There's no such thing as a real 1431 01:32:12,320 --> 01:32:17,479 Speaker 1: meat replacement. There's just plant stuff that's made to vaguely 1432 01:32:17,760 --> 01:32:21,040 Speaker 1: resemble some form of meat product. But meat, as we 1433 01:32:21,080 --> 01:32:23,680 Speaker 1: all know, is superior. So I'm just hoping we don't 1434 01:32:23,720 --> 01:32:26,000 Speaker 1: get a big I hope some of you you know 1435 01:32:26,040 --> 01:32:28,960 Speaker 1: we have a fantastic meat sponsor if you if you 1436 01:32:29,080 --> 01:32:32,200 Speaker 1: got in on that, you're good to go. But you 1437 01:32:32,240 --> 01:32:33,680 Speaker 1: know you don't want to wait on these things. So 1438 01:32:33,720 --> 01:32:35,280 Speaker 1: when I when I tell you to check out our 1439 01:32:35,400 --> 01:32:38,559 Speaker 1: our meat sponsor here on the show and get some 1440 01:32:38,680 --> 01:32:40,720 Speaker 1: moinks into your home, now you know I'm trying to 1441 01:32:40,760 --> 01:32:44,200 Speaker 1: get you prepared. Friends. Doctor Fauci is going to be 1442 01:32:44,280 --> 01:32:49,759 Speaker 1: getting a paycheck, a big one, friends, for his book 1443 01:32:50,479 --> 01:32:54,840 Speaker 1: on truth and handling this health crisis. What's the title, 1444 01:32:54,920 --> 01:33:01,120 Speaker 1: you're expect The Unexpected Ten Lessons on Truth, Service and 1445 01:33:01,400 --> 01:33:06,040 Speaker 1: the Way Forward. This is going to be released in November. 1446 01:33:06,880 --> 01:33:12,400 Speaker 1: It's only eighty pages long. And Fauci it's not clear 1447 01:33:12,520 --> 01:33:16,080 Speaker 1: yet if he's going to keep or donate the proceeds. 1448 01:33:16,760 --> 01:33:18,920 Speaker 1: I think there's gonna be a lot of pressure on 1449 01:33:19,000 --> 01:33:22,280 Speaker 1: this guy to donate. Now, I don't know if he 1450 01:33:22,320 --> 01:33:26,600 Speaker 1: will or not. But why would Fauci be writing a 1451 01:33:26,640 --> 01:33:30,840 Speaker 1: book meant to profit personally? As a result of what's 1452 01:33:30,840 --> 01:33:33,240 Speaker 1: gone on during this pandemic. What is his book really 1453 01:33:33,240 --> 01:33:36,679 Speaker 1: going to be about? You have to wonder unless it's 1454 01:33:36,720 --> 01:33:41,800 Speaker 1: eighty pages of I'm sorry, I was wrong over and 1455 01:33:41,960 --> 01:33:45,880 Speaker 1: over again, and I kept being wrong even more. And 1456 01:33:45,920 --> 01:33:50,040 Speaker 1: then right when you thought, hold on a second, could 1457 01:33:50,040 --> 01:33:53,800 Speaker 1: he be wrong anymore? Then yes, yes, in fact, it 1458 01:33:53,840 --> 01:33:58,080 Speaker 1: would come forward that I was wrong again. And it's 1459 01:33:58,120 --> 01:34:02,559 Speaker 1: almost amazing the amount of wrongness that I've been able 1460 01:34:03,000 --> 01:34:07,120 Speaker 1: to pull together. Expect the unexpected, they call it. Yeah, 1461 01:34:07,160 --> 01:34:10,280 Speaker 1: you know what is expected here that you have a 1462 01:34:10,360 --> 01:34:15,880 Speaker 1: Democrat bureaucrat with doctor Anthony Fauci who is finding yet 1463 01:34:15,920 --> 01:34:20,559 Speaker 1: another way to put himself personally at the center of 1464 01:34:20,600 --> 01:34:24,720 Speaker 1: this and seemingly benefit from it. Why should any of 1465 01:34:24,800 --> 01:34:29,400 Speaker 1: us see this as anything other than doctor Fauci building 1466 01:34:29,439 --> 01:34:32,639 Speaker 1: his own brand, because you know this guy is gonna 1467 01:34:32,720 --> 01:34:37,040 Speaker 1: get a CNN gig. You know he's gonna be on MSNBC. 1468 01:34:37,360 --> 01:34:40,080 Speaker 1: What he's gonna stick around after this? You think this 1469 01:34:40,120 --> 01:34:46,040 Speaker 1: guy wants to go back to doing public health announcements 1470 01:34:46,120 --> 01:34:49,880 Speaker 1: during flu season. Wash your hands, you gotta wear a 1471 01:34:50,080 --> 01:34:52,760 Speaker 1: well wearing a master in flu season. We'll see how 1472 01:34:52,840 --> 01:34:54,800 Speaker 1: much of that they push on us. But you gotta 1473 01:34:54,840 --> 01:34:57,559 Speaker 1: wear a mask, you gotta wash your hands, you got 1474 01:34:57,640 --> 01:35:01,000 Speaker 1: a social distance. No, he doesn't want to go back 1475 01:35:01,000 --> 01:35:05,479 Speaker 1: to that. He's gotten a taste of being famous, he's 1476 01:35:05,520 --> 01:35:09,800 Speaker 1: gotten a taste of being really important. He's not gonna 1477 01:35:09,840 --> 01:35:13,240 Speaker 1: want to give that up. There's no part of doctor 1478 01:35:13,280 --> 01:35:15,840 Speaker 1: Anthony Fauci that's going to say. You know what, I 1479 01:35:16,479 --> 01:35:21,320 Speaker 1: think that being the most powerful unelected official in America 1480 01:35:21,680 --> 01:35:25,040 Speaker 1: is something that I don't ever want to be repeated 1481 01:35:25,040 --> 01:35:26,880 Speaker 1: again for anybody else. So I'm going to tell the 1482 01:35:26,920 --> 01:35:31,479 Speaker 1: truth about how I really had too much authority and 1483 01:35:31,560 --> 01:35:35,040 Speaker 1: was able to promote far too many policies under the 1484 01:35:35,080 --> 01:35:38,920 Speaker 1: guise of guidance. Remember that's what they toways say. You know, 1485 01:35:38,960 --> 01:35:42,840 Speaker 1: we follow we got measures, and we got to stop 1486 01:35:42,880 --> 01:35:45,960 Speaker 1: the droplets with the masks, and we got the public 1487 01:35:46,000 --> 01:35:49,040 Speaker 1: health guidance and all this stuff that he was saying. 1488 01:35:49,600 --> 01:35:53,760 Speaker 1: All along. The Democrats allied with Fauci to create an 1489 01:35:53,800 --> 01:35:58,880 Speaker 1: authoritarian health policy super state and to defeat Donald Trump 1490 01:35:59,280 --> 01:36:01,439 Speaker 1: in the mid term. And as I always tell you, 1491 01:36:02,240 --> 01:36:07,679 Speaker 1: this is where Democrats excel. They take care of their own. 1492 01:36:08,400 --> 01:36:11,400 Speaker 1: This is where the Democrat Party really shows you why 1493 01:36:11,439 --> 01:36:16,120 Speaker 1: they're able to despite being bad at governance, win people 1494 01:36:16,200 --> 01:36:19,599 Speaker 1: over to their side to vote in, to vote Democrat 1495 01:36:19,640 --> 01:36:23,120 Speaker 1: in elections. It's because, for one thing, if you want 1496 01:36:23,120 --> 01:36:26,040 Speaker 1: to be in with the cool kids, if you want 1497 01:36:26,040 --> 01:36:27,880 Speaker 1: to be well taken care of by the elites, you 1498 01:36:27,960 --> 01:36:33,040 Speaker 1: want that Netflix advisory deal, that board seat on a 1499 01:36:33,080 --> 01:36:36,439 Speaker 1: Barry Diller company, you know from IAC. You want to 1500 01:36:36,439 --> 01:36:40,240 Speaker 1: be somebody who gets invited to the really fancy parties, 1501 01:36:40,880 --> 01:36:43,040 Speaker 1: You got to be a Democrat. You want to be 1502 01:36:43,080 --> 01:36:46,439 Speaker 1: somebody who gets the top publishing house to push your 1503 01:36:46,560 --> 01:36:50,200 Speaker 1: crap book, like Andrew Cuomo, the governor New York. Well, 1504 01:36:50,240 --> 01:36:52,640 Speaker 1: you better be a Democrat. If you're a Republican, you 1505 01:36:52,680 --> 01:36:58,400 Speaker 1: could write the formula for turning coal into gold. You know, 1506 01:36:58,479 --> 01:37:00,120 Speaker 1: Cole price is going up. A lot of things gone 1507 01:37:00,160 --> 01:37:03,200 Speaker 1: on these days, but you could have the you know, 1508 01:37:03,240 --> 01:37:05,559 Speaker 1: the meaning of life written on a piece of paper, 1509 01:37:06,200 --> 01:37:08,840 Speaker 1: and a lot of publishing houses wouldn't want to touch 1510 01:37:08,880 --> 01:37:14,240 Speaker 1: it because they are partisan entities. And then there's also 1511 01:37:14,280 --> 01:37:17,000 Speaker 1: what Faucci has shown us here. Sure there's the book 1512 01:37:17,040 --> 01:37:18,960 Speaker 1: deal part of this, but there's also what he has 1513 01:37:19,000 --> 01:37:23,519 Speaker 1: taught us about the nature of the administrative state. And 1514 01:37:23,640 --> 01:37:25,760 Speaker 1: this has been a concern of mine for a long time. 1515 01:37:25,800 --> 01:37:29,559 Speaker 1: There is in this country a fourth branch of government, 1516 01:37:30,120 --> 01:37:33,880 Speaker 1: and it is the bureaucracy. I'm quite familiar with it 1517 01:37:33,960 --> 01:37:36,880 Speaker 1: because I used to work for it in a sense 1518 01:37:36,920 --> 01:37:39,439 Speaker 1: at the CIA. Now, I will tell you that the 1519 01:37:39,479 --> 01:37:48,879 Speaker 1: Central Intelligence Agency is among federal bureaucracies, the most academically elite. 1520 01:37:49,360 --> 01:37:52,960 Speaker 1: And it's relatively speaking, and I know some of you're 1521 01:37:52,960 --> 01:37:54,960 Speaker 1: gonna go fall and you should, as I say this, 1522 01:37:55,360 --> 01:37:59,439 Speaker 1: relatively lean and mean. Now, that's not to say there's 1523 01:37:59,439 --> 01:38:03,200 Speaker 1: not a tremendou amount of waste and redundancy and absurdity. 1524 01:38:03,240 --> 01:38:05,960 Speaker 1: Of course there is. But if you want to compare 1525 01:38:06,000 --> 01:38:09,719 Speaker 1: the CIA to the Department of Education, if you wanted 1526 01:38:09,720 --> 01:38:14,519 Speaker 1: to compare you know, the CIA to Health and Human Services. 1527 01:38:14,520 --> 01:38:16,400 Speaker 1: I mean, you start looking at some of the federal 1528 01:38:16,439 --> 01:38:20,639 Speaker 1: government agencies and you realize, oh my gosh, not only 1529 01:38:21,000 --> 01:38:24,880 Speaker 1: are we spending enormous amounts of the public's money, and 1530 01:38:24,960 --> 01:38:28,240 Speaker 1: remember time is money. Right when the government is taking 1531 01:38:28,280 --> 01:38:31,280 Speaker 1: more from you in the form of taxation and bonding 1532 01:38:31,320 --> 01:38:34,519 Speaker 1: your children to these debts in the future, they're taking 1533 01:38:34,720 --> 01:38:39,200 Speaker 1: your productive time from you, and they're taking your possessions 1534 01:38:39,200 --> 01:38:41,799 Speaker 1: in a sense, from you and giving it to other people. 1535 01:38:42,080 --> 01:38:46,120 Speaker 1: Which is why, yes, limited taxation is essential. It's interesting. 1536 01:38:46,120 --> 01:38:48,280 Speaker 1: You know, if you go back you read, as I 1537 01:38:48,360 --> 01:38:52,760 Speaker 1: like to a lot of American history, You go through 1538 01:38:52,800 --> 01:38:54,679 Speaker 1: all these periods and you go, wait a second, what's 1539 01:38:54,720 --> 01:38:59,000 Speaker 1: wh Why were tariff houses so expensive? Why were tariffs 1540 01:38:59,000 --> 01:39:01,800 Speaker 1: so important? Oh? Because that's how we funded the entire 1541 01:39:01,840 --> 01:39:05,680 Speaker 1: federal government until the twentieth century. Right. You know they 1542 01:39:05,680 --> 01:39:07,960 Speaker 1: don't teach kids that in school. Wait a minute, You 1543 01:39:07,960 --> 01:39:09,680 Speaker 1: mean that you could have been an American in the 1544 01:39:09,680 --> 01:39:12,880 Speaker 1: eighteen eighties and not paid a dollar of income tax 1545 01:39:12,920 --> 01:39:17,280 Speaker 1: because there was no income tax. Yes. Yes, but the 1546 01:39:17,320 --> 01:39:21,160 Speaker 1: federal bureaucracy is more powerful than it has ever been, 1547 01:39:21,840 --> 01:39:26,440 Speaker 1: and it's something that we have just begun to recognize 1548 01:39:27,160 --> 01:39:29,479 Speaker 1: as the threat to our freedoms and liberties that it 1549 01:39:29,520 --> 01:39:35,600 Speaker 1: really is. I mean, it was fauchiites working for the 1550 01:39:35,800 --> 01:39:40,120 Speaker 1: NIH and the CDC who were pretending, I mean, think 1551 01:39:40,120 --> 01:39:42,680 Speaker 1: about the game they played. Oh, we're just we're just 1552 01:39:42,760 --> 01:39:47,160 Speaker 1: giving you guidance. It wasn't guidance. They were laws in effect. 1553 01:39:47,520 --> 01:39:50,599 Speaker 1: Because the Democrats that were in power, and a lot 1554 01:39:50,640 --> 01:39:53,839 Speaker 1: of Republicans too, said I'll do whatever the CDC tells 1555 01:39:53,920 --> 01:39:57,400 Speaker 1: me to and they knew that so they had the 1556 01:39:57,479 --> 01:40:02,880 Speaker 1: power of law without actually getting elected to anything. And 1557 01:40:03,160 --> 01:40:06,720 Speaker 1: that's troubling. There was an outsourcing here of the accountability 1558 01:40:06,760 --> 01:40:10,919 Speaker 1: mechanism of our system to the federal bureaucracy during the pandemic, 1559 01:40:10,960 --> 01:40:16,280 Speaker 1: and the results were disastrous. The results were awful. I mean, 1560 01:40:16,320 --> 01:40:18,720 Speaker 1: how can anyone look at what happened in this country 1561 01:40:19,200 --> 01:40:22,880 Speaker 1: with over half a million dead and who knows what 1562 01:40:22,920 --> 01:40:25,160 Speaker 1: the total number of infections is. As I've told you, 1563 01:40:25,600 --> 01:40:28,519 Speaker 1: I believe that close to half the country was at 1564 01:40:28,560 --> 01:40:31,400 Speaker 1: some point exposed to in infected with COVID nineteen. And 1565 01:40:31,479 --> 01:40:37,200 Speaker 1: I can show you rock and roll fellow patriots. It's 1566 01:40:37,240 --> 01:40:54,040 Speaker 1: time for roll call Facebook dot com.

There's a lot of historical and accuracy 1592 01:42:08,960 --> 01:42:11,559 Speaker 1: and accuracies in it. But anybody who cares, great movie. 1593 01:42:11,560 --> 01:42:13,360 Speaker 1: I love it. So I'm with you. But I was 1594 01:42:13,360 --> 01:42:15,080 Speaker 1: just wondering about that well Mighty Ducks number. You know, 1595 01:42:15,120 --> 01:42:18,200 Speaker 1: I haven't seen it. You've never seen the Mighty Ducks 1596 01:42:18,320 --> 01:42:21,200 Speaker 1: never seen it. You told me to watch Miracle, which 1597 01:42:21,240 --> 01:42:23,760 Speaker 1: I enjoyed, so you have some credibility with me on 1598 01:42:23,800 --> 01:42:26,120 Speaker 1: this one. So I made maybe this weekend. You want 1599 01:42:26,120 --> 01:42:27,360 Speaker 1: to have kind of a low key weekend with the 1600 01:42:27,400 --> 01:42:30,920 Speaker 1: Snow Princess, so I think maybe maybe Mighty Ducks might 1601 01:42:30,960 --> 01:42:32,439 Speaker 1: have to happen. You have to go into it with 1602 01:42:32,560 --> 01:42:35,680 Speaker 1: understanding that it's a movie for children. Yeah, can I 1603 01:42:35,680 --> 01:42:39,080 Speaker 1: tell you that there was I did a Google. I 1604 01:42:39,120 --> 01:42:41,200 Speaker 1: did a Google search the day of the big announcement 1605 01:42:41,240 --> 01:42:43,160 Speaker 1: because I want to see what news coverage there was. 1606 01:42:43,320 --> 01:42:47,320 Speaker 1: I'm not somebody who googles himself, but the day when 1607 01:42:47,320 --> 01:42:50,719 Speaker 1: you have a Wall Street journal piece and a Daily 1608 01:42:50,760 --> 01:42:53,680 Speaker 1: Mail piece and a Fox News piece on on you 1609 01:42:53,760 --> 01:42:55,439 Speaker 1: and your new you know radio show, you tend to 1610 01:42:55,439 --> 01:42:58,200 Speaker 1: want to google yourself right about my coast and I 1611 01:42:58,280 --> 01:43:00,240 Speaker 1: Clay Travis what we're gonna be doing it from twelve 1612 01:43:00,320 --> 01:43:02,519 Speaker 1: the three one, hundreds of stations. And you know it's 1613 01:43:02,520 --> 01:43:05,840 Speaker 1: interesting when they had the the suggested searches based on 1614 01:43:05,880 --> 01:43:07,519 Speaker 1: my name, pretty ser Mark, did you see this? I 1615 01:43:07,560 --> 01:43:11,640 Speaker 1: tweeted it out too. It was like buck Sexton number one, 1616 01:43:12,120 --> 01:43:21,920 Speaker 1: hair number two was wife number three was history, and 1617 01:43:22,080 --> 01:43:26,880 Speaker 1: number four I think was podcast. I was like, oh, 1618 01:43:26,920 --> 01:43:30,400 Speaker 1: Google knows me so well, yeah, wife, isn't there anymore 1619 01:43:30,400 --> 01:43:31,920 Speaker 1: from me? By the way, in case you were wondering, 1620 01:43:32,439 --> 01:43:36,600 Speaker 1: what isn't there for you anymore? Wife? Oh? You know 1621 01:43:36,640 --> 01:43:38,080 Speaker 1: I don't have a wife. Yeah, I know, I know, 1622 01:43:38,160 --> 01:43:40,559 Speaker 1: but I'm saying, from the results you got the other day, 1623 01:43:41,520 --> 01:43:43,880 Speaker 1: I guess people have searched other things so much that 1624 01:43:43,880 --> 01:43:48,320 Speaker 1: wife isn't one of the suggestions anymore. Oh okay, yeah, No. 1625 01:43:48,600 --> 01:43:51,000 Speaker 1: There were some websites you're that that I had that 1626 01:43:51,080 --> 01:43:53,200 Speaker 1: people had pointed this out to me when I was 1627 01:43:53,479 --> 01:43:55,280 Speaker 1: single and unmarried. They said, you know that it's it 1628 01:43:55,320 --> 01:43:57,320 Speaker 1: says online that you're married. I was like, I've never 1629 01:43:57,360 --> 01:43:59,519 Speaker 1: been married. You know, I've never been married. I don't 1630 01:43:59,520 --> 01:44:02,040 Speaker 1: know why there should be any confusion about that, but 1631 01:44:02,080 --> 01:44:07,760 Speaker 1: there was for a little while. But anyway, all right, well, 1632 01:44:07,840 --> 01:44:09,680 Speaker 1: let's get into a roll call. Let's get into a 1633 01:44:09,720 --> 01:44:13,680 Speaker 1: roll call. Vale. Hey, Buck, I'm just listening to your 1634 01:44:13,680 --> 01:44:16,120 Speaker 1: exciting new announcement. I would say I got a little 1635 01:44:16,120 --> 01:44:18,439 Speaker 1: emotional when you talked about your speech impairment. It just 1636 01:44:18,479 --> 01:44:20,760 Speaker 1: made me so happy you overcame your difficulty and came 1637 01:44:20,800 --> 01:44:23,800 Speaker 1: out on top. You're a great inspiration for never giving 1638 01:44:23,840 --> 01:44:26,759 Speaker 1: up and overcoming the hardship life gives you. The world 1639 01:44:26,800 --> 01:44:29,479 Speaker 1: needs more people like you. I was also a little 1640 01:44:29,520 --> 01:44:31,800 Speaker 1: emotional when you said you were taking over Russia's spot 1641 01:44:32,240 --> 01:44:34,240 Speaker 1: one and honor, and I can't think of anyone better 1642 01:44:34,240 --> 01:44:36,679 Speaker 1: to fill his spot. I can only imagine him looking 1643 01:44:36,720 --> 01:44:39,000 Speaker 1: down and being very happy about you trying to fill 1644 01:44:39,080 --> 01:44:41,200 Speaker 1: his shoes. I wish you the best of luck with 1645 01:44:41,240 --> 01:44:43,000 Speaker 1: the new show.

That's the kind of English accent that that guy. 1655 01:45:16,400 --> 01:45:23,400 Speaker 1: What is his u um brand is Russell Brandy. Yeah, 1656 01:45:23,439 --> 01:45:25,640 Speaker 1: and he's like, oh, I was going to listen to 1657 01:45:25,720 --> 01:45:29,280 Speaker 1: your demo. But then I just decided to go on 1658 01:45:29,400 --> 01:45:32,599 Speaker 1: living my life. You know that guy did the movie 1659 01:45:32,640 --> 01:45:36,640 Speaker 1: they made with that character. Yeah, take him to the Greek. 1660 01:45:36,200 --> 01:45:38,679 Speaker 1: I did not like it, or get him to the Greek. 1661 01:45:40,439 --> 01:45:42,720 Speaker 1: It's yeah, it's I did not like it. Um, I 1662 01:45:42,840 --> 01:45:46,040 Speaker 1: like forgetting Forgetting Sarah Marshall's a little raunchy, but I 1663 01:45:46,080 --> 01:45:49,600 Speaker 1: liked it anyway. Um. You know, I talked to my 1664 01:45:49,680 --> 01:45:51,120 Speaker 1: dad recently. You know what he told me. He said 1665 01:45:51,160 --> 01:45:54,120 Speaker 1: the Game of Thrones was too violent for him, and 1666 01:45:54,120 --> 01:45:57,519 Speaker 1: and I gotta tell you, he's kind of right. It's 1667 01:45:57,520 --> 01:46:01,599 Speaker 1: a really violence like go was above and beyond, you know, 1668 01:46:01,800 --> 01:46:04,120 Speaker 1: but I still liked it. I've never even seen it. 1669 01:46:04,120 --> 01:46:06,280 Speaker 1: It doesn't interest me at all. I know a lot 1670 01:46:06,280 --> 01:46:09,200 Speaker 1: of people are shocked in awe at that, but it's true. 1671 01:46:09,360 --> 01:46:11,000 Speaker 1: Sor right, Well, I don't. I don't give you recommendation 1672 01:46:11,040 --> 01:46:12,559 Speaker 1: anymore because I gave you one that you'll like on 1673 01:46:12,600 --> 01:46:15,639 Speaker 1: Amazon Prime, but you never watch it because your missus 1674 01:46:15,720 --> 01:46:18,840 Speaker 1: apparently shoots down my ideas. So I guess I have 1675 01:46:18,880 --> 01:46:20,280 Speaker 1: to watch it soon because I only have a couple 1676 01:46:20,280 --> 01:46:23,559 Speaker 1: of weeks left. You know, you should probably check it out. 1677 01:46:23,600 --> 01:46:25,000 Speaker 1: I think I think you'd enjoy it. But I'm not 1678 01:46:25,040 --> 01:46:26,519 Speaker 1: even gonna say what it is because people have heard 1679 01:46:26,520 --> 01:46:30,439 Speaker 1: it too many times in the show. Will congratulations on 1680 01:46:30,479 --> 01:46:32,200 Speaker 1: the big news, my friend. It couldnt have happened to 1681 01:46:32,240 --> 01:46:35,040 Speaker 1: a more deserving person. Nobody worked harder for this than 1682 01:46:35,120 --> 01:46:36,760 Speaker 1: you have, and now it's all paid off. I wish 1683 01:46:36,800 --> 01:46:39,519 Speaker 1: I could say I was OSS, but I started listening 1684 01:46:39,560 --> 01:46:41,760 Speaker 1: to you after one of your early fill ins on 1685 01:46:41,880 --> 01:46:45,320 Speaker 1: Russia's Show, and I immediately subscribe to your podcast and 1686 01:46:45,360 --> 01:46:48,960 Speaker 1: have listened ever since. While nobody could really fill Russia's shoes, 1687 01:46:49,000 --> 01:46:51,200 Speaker 1: I think we all know that you were a top choice. 1688 01:46:51,560 --> 01:46:53,280 Speaker 1: I'd say, keep up the good work, but I already 1689 01:46:53,280 --> 01:46:56,560 Speaker 1: know you will.

I'm just trying to carry 1693 01:47:05,960 --> 01:47:11,280 Speaker 1: on in whatever portion of the time slot that is 1694 01:47:11,320 --> 01:47:14,000 Speaker 1: open now that formerly was the rush time slot, whatever 1695 01:47:14,040 --> 01:47:16,479 Speaker 1: portion of that I can.
