We have got, trust me on this, some 6 00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:27,720 Speaker 1: incredible stories out there to have fun with. Today we're 7 00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:31,880 Speaker 1: going to be joined by David Zuag. He is a 8 00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:35,199 Speaker 1: truth teller when it comes to what the data on 9 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:39,320 Speaker 1: COVID has shown, a man of the left that actually 10 00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 1: cares about facts. We will discuss with him. He's been 11 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:47,840 Speaker 1: on before. He's got some great new details surrounding everything 12 00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:52,320 Speaker 1: out there in the COVID realm. We will be joined 13 00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:56,560 Speaker 1: at two o'clock Eastern by Senator Josh Holly of Missouri 14 00:00:56,680 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 1: to talk about the social media issue that we discus yesterday. 15 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 1: He has a bill that would require kids to be 16 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 1: at least sixteen years old to get social media accounts. 17 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 1: To really interesting concept. He's also been aggressive on the 18 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:17,720 Speaker 1: East Palestine Ohio train derailment, so we will continue to 19 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: update you on that. But there are some really crazy 20 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 1: things happening in the world of CNN, and I saw 21 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 1: this this morning and I thought to myself, my goodness, 22 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 1: so you may be familiar with Don Lemon. Don Lemon, 23 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 1: of course, had a primetime show on CNN. He used 24 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:46,039 Speaker 1: to be, I would say, somewhat sane. Obviously a diva 25 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: in even in the television realm. Don Lemon is a diva. 26 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 1: But he used to be, you know, somewhat sane, I 27 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:57,559 Speaker 1: would say. And then Donald Trump happened, and Don Lemon 28 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 1: lost his mind and he became convinced that Donald Trump 29 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 1: was Hitler. And then Trump left office, and people realized 30 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:11,640 Speaker 1: that CNN had so lost its mind over Trump that 31 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: there was no real reason to watch them once Trump 32 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:21,079 Speaker 1: wasn't an office anymore. In fact, CNN just recently hit 33 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:25,240 Speaker 1: a nine year low in ratings. And this is I 34 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 1: believe a really good book or long form streaming show 35 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 1: that could be used to tell the story of how 36 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: CNN lost its way and destroyed its brand in pursuit 37 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: of the idea that Donald Trump was Hitler, which was 38 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 1: never actually true, and so Trump was a sugar high 39 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 1: for CNN that ultimately led to the overall destruction of 40 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 1: the brand of CNN. I really do believe that, because 41 00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 1: now the entire network is floundering. You might not respect 42 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: MSNBC's political opinions, but before Trump, MSNBC decided we are 43 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 1: a left wing news network. We are going to directly 44 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 1: take aim at Fox News. And let me just say 45 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: this about Fox News. One of the great quotes of 46 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 1: all time came from Roger Ailes, who said, Yeah, we 47 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 1: just discovered there's this great, untapped market place out there. 48 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 1: It's called half of America. You know, way more Democrats 49 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: watch Hannity oftentimes, and Tucker and the primetime shows, Laura 50 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 1: Ingram in the evenings than Jesse Kelly, the Jesse Kelly, 51 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: Jesse Waters, Jesse Kelly's in his own little feud. Would 52 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 1: may have some fun with that before the week is out. 53 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 1: But those CNN shows are actually beaten by many Fox 54 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: News shows. But MSNBC, you could sit back and you 55 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 1: could say, Okay, the Rachel Maddow's of the world have 56 00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 1: decided that America's an awful racist place, and there's about 57 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 1: twenty percent of America that believes that overwhelmingly they vote Democrat. 58 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 1: They're probably not gonna watch Fox News. So we're going 59 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 1: to serve that marketplace. And then CNN was kind of 60 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:19,160 Speaker 1: your Grandpa's News network. And what I mean by that is, 61 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: if suddenly there was a major war that broke out, 62 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: a lot of people in default still had the brand 63 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: awareness of CNN from the time that they peaked. I 64 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,040 Speaker 1: think this is beyond a shadow of a doubt. In 65 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 1: the early nineteen nineties, everybody loves CNN. I'm talking about 66 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,119 Speaker 1: like the First Gulf War. I don't remember their being 67 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 1: and maybe some of you were ogs out there, but 68 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:48,239 Speaker 1: I don't remember there being a strong argument that during 69 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: the First Gulf War CNN was in some way in 70 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,720 Speaker 1: the tank for one political party or the other. I 71 00:04:55,839 --> 00:05:01,280 Speaker 1: believe CNN as a news brand hit its absolute apex 72 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:06,600 Speaker 1: in the First Golf War. Everybody was watching CNN. Ratings 73 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:10,280 Speaker 1: went through the roof. You trusted them to bring you 74 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 1: the news of the first Golf four. I was a 75 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,280 Speaker 1: kid then, but I remember rushing home from school and 76 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:20,480 Speaker 1: I remember putting on my putting on CNN and wanting 77 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:24,159 Speaker 1: to know what the latest was in Iraq and in Kuwait. 78 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 1: And I bet almost every single one of you, regardless 79 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,040 Speaker 1: of your age, and you may be thinking to yourself, 80 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 1: oh my goodness, I'm listening to Clay Travis and he 81 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 1: was a kid in the First Golf Foar. Yes, I 82 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:39,039 Speaker 1: was coming home from fifth and sixth grade during the 83 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 1: First Golf War putting that thing on and watching it. 84 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,839 Speaker 1: Buck Bucking wasn't even born. I'm joking. Buck. By the way, 85 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:48,919 Speaker 1: honest honeymoon. For those of you who don't know, he 86 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 1: will be back next week. He and carry are having 87 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 1: a lovely time, I believe in the South Pacific. I'm 88 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,840 Speaker 1: trying not to. I felt bad because I put him 89 00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 1: on an email yesterday and I was like, ah, I 90 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 1: shouldn't have done that, but I don't not want to 91 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 1: have him on the email. I've tried to avoid texting 92 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 1: him because he said, Hey, I'm just gonna be on 93 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 1: the beach. I'm trying to avoid bringing him into any 94 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: of the daily drama that's involved in America right now 95 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 1: because he's out in the South Pacific celebrating with his 96 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 1: new wife, Carrie. She's fantastic. So everybody agrees that CNN, 97 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 1: I think, by and large peaked in those years, and 98 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,279 Speaker 1: then they kind of fell apart as Fox News rose 99 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 1: and they didn't really have a good spot. People would 100 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:36,479 Speaker 1: still go to them when it was election night or 101 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 1: real news broke out but by and large they continued 102 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:46,039 Speaker 1: to just kind of flounder. And then they decided under 103 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 1: Zucker that they were it was the leader there, that 104 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 1: Trump was evil, and that they had to make that 105 00:06:54,480 --> 00:07:00,159 Speaker 1: their brand, and so they left News and became MSNBC. 106 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,039 Speaker 1: And so they went to war with Donald Trump, and 107 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,919 Speaker 1: it gave him a sugar high. The Don Lemons of 108 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 1: the world, the Anderson Coopers of the world, the Jake 109 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 1: Tappers of the world. They suddenly had a larger viewership, 110 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: but it was a sugar high. And as soon as 111 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: Trump left, they've collapsed and they're actually floundering. And their 112 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 1: morning show, Poppy Harlow, Caitlin Collins and Don Lemon, is 113 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 1: an abject failure. So they took Don Lemon, whose primetime 114 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: show was a disaster, out of the prime time lineup 115 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 1: and they put him on this morning show, and they 116 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:43,360 Speaker 1: put him between two women. And you can just tell 117 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: at this point that all three of these people hate 118 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 1: each other. And by the way, that's not necessarily bad television. 119 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 1: It's not sustainable television, but in the short term it's 120 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: not bad television. So this morning they were discussing Nicky Hayley, 121 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 1: who officially yesterday as you all know, announced that she 122 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 1: was entering into the Republican presidential primary and that she's 123 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 1: taking on Donald Trump. Nicki Haley is fifty one years 124 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 1: old as a politician, that's relatively young. Certainly it's relatively 125 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: young compared to eighty year old Joe Biden or even 126 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 1: seventy six I believe year old Donald Trump. That is, 127 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 1: that is clearly a generational divide there. Nicki Haley fifty one, 128 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 1: and part of her case that she's making, part of 129 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: the argument for why she should be president, is she 130 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 1: represents a new generation and she believes she's in her prime. Well, 131 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 1: for some reason, Nicki Haley saying she was in her 132 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 1: prime really got under Don Lemon's skin. Now, Don Lemon 133 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 1: is fifty six, so I mean, you know, he's not 134 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:01,839 Speaker 1: particularly young. It's not like he's thirty six. But Nicky 135 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 1: Haley five years younger that Don Livinn says she's in 136 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 1: her prime. And Don Livitt had an issue with that. 137 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: In fact, he went to Google to find out when 138 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 1: women or in their pride and this happened this morning. 139 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:19,560 Speaker 1: Odd cited Listen, she says, people, you know, politicians are 140 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 1: something and not in their prime. Nicki Haley isn't in 141 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 1: her prime. Sorry, when a woman is considered being her 142 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 1: prime in her twenties and thirties and maybe forties, that's not, 143 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 1: according to me, prime for what it depends. I mean, 144 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: it's just like Prime. If you look it up, it'll say. 145 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: If you google, when is a woman in her prime, 146 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: it'll say twenties, thirties and forties. I don't agree with 147 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:46,440 Speaker 1: that Prime for like child effects are Google and everybody 148 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,439 Speaker 1: at home, when is a woman in her prime? It 149 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 1: says twenties, thirties and forties. And I'm just saying, NICKI 150 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,679 Speaker 1: Haley should be careful about saying that politicians are not 151 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:55,679 Speaker 1: in their prime and they need to be in their 152 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 1: prime when they served, because she wouldn't be in her 153 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 1: prime according to Google or what. It is amazing. I mean, 154 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 1: I don't know how many of you had heard that clip. 155 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 1: But Don Lemon, as his journalism NG, decided that he 156 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:17,679 Speaker 1: needed to know when women were in their prime, and 157 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 1: so he sat down in front of his computer and 158 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:25,080 Speaker 1: he googled when is a woman in her prime? And 159 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, this is almost impossible for me not to 160 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 1: laugh while thinking about so you got a gay man? 161 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:35,840 Speaker 1: Don Lemon. He hears that Nicki Haley says, I'm in 162 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 1: my prime. I'm ready to roll. I'm She's fifty one 163 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 1: years old, and Don Lemon is like, h, she is 164 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 1: not in her prime. I didn't even go to Google 165 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 1: and do a legitimate investigation for journalism here of when 166 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 1: a woman is at her prime. And then he comes 167 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 1: on CNN and says that Nicky Haley is not in 168 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 1: her prime because women, according to his Google search, are 169 00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 1: in their prime in their twenties, thirties, maybe forties. That 170 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:05,560 Speaker 1: was his quote. Now, this is amazing because I don't 171 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 1: know how dumb Don Lemon is, but the answer is 172 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 1: quite dumb. I think I just don't know to the 173 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 1: quite extent of how dumb he is. There's a difference 174 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 1: between it, and I can't believe that this didn't go 175 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 1: off in his head and he didn't think a lot 176 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 1: of people discuss when you're in your prime child bearing age, right, 177 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 1: and that is difference than when you're in your prime 178 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:38,480 Speaker 1: as a politician. Most women are in their prime child 179 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: bearing ages in their twenties, thirties, and maybe their forties. 180 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,559 Speaker 1: It's extended now because I think women are in far 181 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 1: better shape today than they were let's say thirty or 182 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 1: forty years ago. The idea that you would go on CNN. 183 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 1: This is a gift to NICKI Haley's campaign, The idea 184 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 1: that you would go on CNN and argue that nick 185 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 1: He Haley, who is fifty one years old, is out 186 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:06,320 Speaker 1: of her prime as a politician. You can't even get 187 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:11,080 Speaker 1: elected president until you're thirty five. So when Don Lemon's mind, 188 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 1: are women only eligible to be elected president when they're 189 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:20,679 Speaker 1: in their thirties and their forties. I don't remember him 190 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 1: ever saying anything like this about Hillary Clinton. If he 191 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 1: had said anything like this about Hillary Clinton, he would 192 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: have been fired immediately. Now I'm not pro cancel culture, 193 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:36,439 Speaker 1: as you all know, but Don Lemon moving to mornings 194 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:41,840 Speaker 1: on CNN and becoming the biggest misogynist in all of 195 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:47,439 Speaker 1: media is a is a direction I did not foresee occurring. 196 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 1: And I got to be honest with you, I just 197 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:56,319 Speaker 1: cannot believe how crazy this really is. I'm gonna open 198 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 1: up phone lines let you react.

There's an awful lot 208 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,560 Speaker 1: of women, the women in their fifties and sixties who 209 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 1: start off their morning watching CNN, left wing women. I 210 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 1: bet that they are in an uproar over this. I 211 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 1: love it.

Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Welcome 231 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 1: back in Clay Travis Buck Sexton show. A bunch of 232 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 1: you want to way in on Don Lemon saying women 233 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 1: are out of their prime once they leave their forties 234 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 1: and specifically attacking Nicki Hali in that regard. To me, 235 00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 1: the this is a total and complete gift to Nicky Haley. 236 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: If you were in Nicky Haley's campaign team right now 237 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 1: and you were mad living the most ridiculous things that 238 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 1: could be said about you, and who could say them. 239 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: CNN host Don Lemon saying she's basically out of her 240 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 1: prime and too old to be running for president is 241 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 1: probably at the very apex of what you could construct 242 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 1: as a perfect story for you and your candidate. I 243 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 1: haven't heard Don Lemon mentioned a word about Kamala Harris 244 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 1: being out of her prime way older, or Hillary Clinton 245 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 1: being out of her prime way older, or even contemplating 246 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 1: the very idea that that would be a subject matter 247 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 1: or worth discussing. Tony, I love this, Tony and Orlando, 248 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:53,479 Speaker 1: you got a theory about women in their prime. Okay, 249 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 1: So in regards to what Don has to say, let's 250 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 1: just taken to think for a minute. People in the villages. 251 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 1: The villages have got the highest STD rate in the nation. 252 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 1: Those folks there, they are there all retired. They play golf, 253 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 1: they do archery, they have extracurricular activities, They drink and 254 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 1: they huh. So, don't tell me that women are in 255 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 1: their prime only for their twenties, thirties, forties, and fifties. 256 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 1: Do you want to explain the villages to me? Thanks 257 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 1: for the call. I cannot confirm or deny. I have 258 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 1: not had the Google machine in front of me to know. 259 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: If the villages has the highest STD rate in the nation, 260 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 1: that seems high to me. I'll put the team on 261 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 1: that claim. The villages, for those of you who don't know, 262 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 1: is a monster retirement community in Florida, where I guarantee 263 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: you we have a monster number of listeners right now. 264 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 1: Hopefully all of them don't have STDs. But that is 265 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 1: very funny. I'll tell you I was out with um 266 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 1: I won't I won't name them. A behind the scenes 267 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 1: member of the OutKick crew. We have a lot of 268 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 1: different shows that we put on OutKick dot com, the 269 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:08,919 Speaker 1: site that I that I run that I sold the 270 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:13,959 Speaker 1: Fox and the Guys in his forties, and we had 271 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 1: a couple of single guys sitting at the table. One 272 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 1: of them was like twenty five and the other guy was, 273 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 1: you know, forty five or so, and they were talking 274 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 1: about the age range of the girls they liked to date. 275 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 1: In the twenty five year olds like, you know, I'll 276 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: date up to thirty two thirty three, and you know 277 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,200 Speaker 1: he's seven years older than him, and you know, basically 278 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 1: college grads to thirty two thirty three. The forty five 279 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:35,640 Speaker 1: year old said, I only date women in their sixties. 280 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 1: My jaw drew. I legitimately did not know what to say. 281 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,159 Speaker 1: He's like, I can't handle the drama of young women. 282 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:47,560 Speaker 1: Women in their sixties know what they want. My jaw 283 00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:51,680 Speaker 1: hit the floor. I've never, and so maybe he knows 284 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 1: what he's talking about. He certainly would disagree with Don 285 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 1: Lemon about women out of their forties being out of 286 00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 1: their prime. Couldn't believe what he said it, I love 287 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:02,679 Speaker 1: women around sixty years old. That was a direct quote. 288 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:07,440 Speaker 1: Good for him, forty five year old guy, Jason Cougars, 289 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 1: Mark and Rochester, what you got for me? Imagine if you, 290 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 1: or Buck or any conservative commentator would have said that 291 00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 1: our vice president Kamala Harris, who's fifty eight, has passed 292 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 1: her praying, the liberal mob would have circled you guys 293 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 1: and would have called you not only a misogynist, but 294 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 1: a racist as well. You're right, You're one hundred percent 295 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 1: right about that. I mean, if Tucker Carlson had said 296 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 1: Nicky Hayley is too old to be president, people would 297 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 1: have lost their minds. That get Bucker, I said it. 298 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 1: People would lose their minds. I'm banned from CNN for 299 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 1: saying that I believe in only two things completely, the 300 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,719 Speaker 1: First Amendment in boobs. If you haven't seen that clip, 301 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:54,680 Speaker 1: you will laugh, you will be entertained by it. I 302 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 1: am legitimately banned by CNN. They will not allow me 303 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 1: to go on the network because I said I only 304 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:03,680 Speaker 1: believe in two things completely, the First Amendment Boobs. Now, look, 305 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 1: that's a funny line that I've been saying on my 306 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 1: show for a long time because if you say you're 307 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:13,440 Speaker 1: a First Amendment absolutist, which frankly I am, a lot 308 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 1: of people out there just kind of they don't really 309 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:18,359 Speaker 1: understand what that means. And so I just kind of 310 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:20,920 Speaker 1: expanded it on my radio show years ago. I said, look, 311 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:22,719 Speaker 1: there's only two things in this country that have never 312 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 1: let me down, the First Amendment and Boobs. And I 313 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 1: set it on CNN, you know, defending as an anti 314 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:37,440 Speaker 1: cancel culture argument to make, and CNN lost its mind. 315 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,199 Speaker 1: I am legitimately banned from being able to appear on 316 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 1: the network because of that hit that I did on 317 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 1: their network on a Friday afternoon back in twenty seventeen. 318 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: They wanted everybody wanted me fired for saying that. To 319 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 1: her credit, our boss here at Premiere, Julie Talbot, stood 320 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:59,160 Speaker 1: behind me one hundred percent. But is that a surprise. 321 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 1: And what was really funny was, like a week later, 322 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,080 Speaker 1: it's not funny that this happened, but the way they 323 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 1: covered him was funny. Hugh Hefner died sometime in twenty seventeen, 324 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 1: like a couple of a month after, not very long 325 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 1: after CNN banned me, and CNN did days of coverage 326 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:23,919 Speaker 1: about what a hero Hugh Hefner was. Hugh Hefner is 327 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 1: the original first Amendment in Boobs Guy. It made him 328 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:32,120 Speaker 1: a hundred millionaire, It bought him the Playboy mansion. Nobody 329 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 1: has ever supported the first Amendment in boobs more than 330 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:39,159 Speaker 1: Hugh Hefner, and CNN called him a hero. They banned me, 331 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,080 Speaker 1: maybe for life. I don't think they're gonna have me 332 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 1: on anytime soon. Meanwhile, Don Lemon's running around out here 333 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 1: saying women or out of their prime after they left 334 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:51,360 Speaker 1: their forties because he googled it. Because he googled it, 335 00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 1: John in White Bluff, Tennessee, you got a theory of win. 336 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 1: CNN lost its mind, yes, sir. It began in nineteen 337 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:06,400 Speaker 1: when CNN published a completely erroneous story about a top 338 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 1: secret mission in nineteen seventy conducted during the eight Years 339 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 1: Secret War in Vietnam War. It was one of the 340 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 1: most historic missions. CNN with Peter Arnette, came back and 341 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 1: reported it as a mission to get deserters, and they, 342 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,160 Speaker 1: of course they always threw in they killed women and children. 343 00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 1: It was wrong. It was a erronius. They had to 344 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,879 Speaker 1: do a retraction. Some of the people on the staff 345 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:34,920 Speaker 1: were fired, and a lot of military viewers stopped returning 346 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:38,120 Speaker 1: to CNN at that point in time, Sir, I appreciate 347 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:41,680 Speaker 1: that update. I don't know, and you can certainly make 348 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 1: arguments for when exactly CNN lost its way as a 349 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 1: primarily news gathering, very trusted network. For me, I think 350 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 1: CNN was incredibly trustworthy in my mind. Some of you 351 00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 1: will disagree. Through the Gulf War. Again, I was watching 352 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 1: it as a fifth and six greater, so I'm not 353 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 1: claiming that I was some you know, media savant. So 354 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:06,840 Speaker 1: there may have been bias certainly apparent then that you know, 355 00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:10,280 Speaker 1: when you're eleven or twelve years old, you're not necessarily noticing. 356 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 1: But Trump destroyed them. Trump destroyed the CNN brand. And 357 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 1: I'll give you an example of when I can't trust 358 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 1: that you're gonna be honest to me anymore, then your 359 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:26,440 Speaker 1: brand is dead to me. I'll give you an example. 360 00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:31,920 Speaker 1: Last night, I was watching the Tennessee Alabama basketball game. 361 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 1: You guys know, I'm big sports fan, so I'm watching 362 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 1: on ESPN two, and Jay Billis, who is a very 363 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:45,440 Speaker 1: knowledgeable college basketball prognosticator, was the stute was the analyst 364 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:51,200 Speaker 1: on the broadcast, and I couldn't trust Jay Billis anymore 365 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 1: to analyze college basketball because in the back of my mind, 366 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 1: every time he would give a strong opinion one way 367 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:02,879 Speaker 1: or the other, right call, wrong call, I would think, 368 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:07,919 Speaker 1: this is the guy who defended and said I stand 369 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 1: behind that Duke volleyball player who lied about the BYU 370 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: racial slur. Jay Billis said she was brave for speaking out, 371 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 1: she was courageous, and even though she is a liar 372 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 1: and she was mistaken, he didn't change his opinion once 373 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,440 Speaker 1: I know, And I would say this should be true 374 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:31,880 Speaker 1: for all of you out there. Once you become aware 375 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 1: that someone will lie to you because the facts are inconvenient, 376 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 1: you shouldn't trust that person anymore. Now, there's a difference 377 00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 1: between not trusting an opinion. Right. There are lots of 378 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 1: things out there I can believe and you can be like, ah, 379 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:52,119 Speaker 1: I don't know if I trust Clay on that. I 380 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 1: don't know if I believe that he's right on that opinion. 381 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:59,360 Speaker 1: But as soon as someone will lie to you about facts, 382 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,960 Speaker 1: then you shouldn't trust their opinion anymore. I used to 383 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 1: always tell my audience in sports. I would say, hey, 384 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 1: you can agree or disagree with my opinion about who 385 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:12,080 Speaker 1: wins the Super Bowl. A lot of times I'm wrong. 386 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,119 Speaker 1: Happen to be right about the Chiefs this year, but 387 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 1: sometimes you're wrong right. But if I give you facts 388 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 1: that are one hundred percent untrue to support my opinion, 389 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,199 Speaker 1: you should trust me less even if you agree with 390 00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 1: my opinion. And the analogy I would give is I 391 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 1: would say, look, I don't think Tom Brady's gonna win 392 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:37,280 Speaker 1: the super Bowl this year. And if you could say, okay, 393 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:39,400 Speaker 1: you know he's retired now, but pretend I was saying 394 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:42,199 Speaker 1: that before this year started. You could say, Okay, you know, 395 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm gonna agree or disagree. But 396 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,639 Speaker 1: if I followed it up by saying, because Tom Brady's 397 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:49,959 Speaker 1: never been good enough to take a team to the 398 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:55,000 Speaker 1: super Bowl, you might agree with my conclusion tom Brady's 399 00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 1: not gonna win the super Bowl, but you should trust 400 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:01,159 Speaker 1: me less because my facts are tom Brady's been to 401 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:04,960 Speaker 1: ten Super Bowls. One of the big problems that we 402 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 1: have in America today is a lot of people don't 403 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 1: check to see whether the facts are right. They just 404 00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 1: jump to the opinion. I want you to trust me 405 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:20,440 Speaker 1: on the facts and agree or disagree with my conclusion 406 00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 1: because that's an opinion. A lot of people don't understand 407 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 1: the difference between facts and opinions. As soon as I 408 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 1: know that Jay Billis has lied to me because he's 409 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,919 Speaker 1: saying that girl had a racial slur yelled at her, 410 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:37,159 Speaker 1: and she's brave and courageous to have spoken out about it, 411 00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:42,200 Speaker 1: that didn't happen. Her story is not true. As soon 412 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 1: as Jay Billis, who works at ESPN, tells me that, 413 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:47,679 Speaker 1: I don't trust his opinion on a block or a 414 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 1: charge anymore because I can't get past the fact that 415 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:55,639 Speaker 1: he lied to me. And I think all of you 416 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 1: out there would be smart to put that in test 417 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 1: to every media figure. I don't get worked up about 418 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,399 Speaker 1: people's opinions. We all have different opinions. As my mom 419 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 1: taught me at a young age, opinions are like butts. 420 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:13,680 Speaker 1: We all got them. I think that's still I think 421 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:17,919 Speaker 1: that's still permissible to say. Democrats haven't decided that some 422 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:19,960 Speaker 1: people don't have butts yet that may be next in 423 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 1: the future, who knows. I think we can still say that. 424 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 1: So you're entitled to your opinion. I'm entitled to mind. 425 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:30,199 Speaker 1: We should all have debates, but you aren't entitled to 426 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 1: your own facts. And there is a lot of factual 427 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:39,399 Speaker 1: misinformation out there, and I'm constantly aware of it in 428 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 1: a way in the past that I wasn't, And that's 429 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:46,240 Speaker 1: because I've just seen so many blatant lies out there 430 00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 1: that are accepted as fact. And I'd encourage you to 431 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 1: keep that in your mind. Out there, whatever media you're consuming. 432 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 1: As soon as you know someone has lied to you. 433 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:59,679 Speaker 1: And I don't mean someone's opinion was wrong. There's a 434 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:03,200 Speaker 1: different I thought it was gonna be a red tsunami. 435 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:07,040 Speaker 1: I was wrong in twenty twenty two. My opinion was wrong. 436 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:11,879 Speaker 1: That happens. But as soon as someone is lying to 437 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:15,199 Speaker 1: you about facts and you know it, even if you 438 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:18,919 Speaker 1: agree with their opinion, you should trust them less. Just 439 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 1: keep that in your mind. I think it's important. Look, 440 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:24,640 Speaker 1: there's all sorts of issues out there with finding things 441 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 1: on the shelves. Do you ever think there'd be a 442 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:29,240 Speaker 1: baby formula shortage? Do you ever think there'd be a 443 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 1: toilet paper shortage. Do you ever think there'd be a 444 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 1: dinosaur oatmeal shortage? Can't find the damn thing anywhere. They 445 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:42,400 Speaker 1: can't keep products on shelves because of our idiot Transportation 446 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 1: secretary and frankly, the Biden administration. Do you feel confident 447 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:49,359 Speaker 1: that you're always going to be able to buy food 448 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 1: for your family no matter what happens in your community. 449 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:55,160 Speaker 1: I don't.

Welcome 462 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 1: back in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show. We are joined 463 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 1: now by Senator Josh Holley of Missouri, fresh off having 464 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 1: his speech stormed by a climate activist. Did you feel 465 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 1: like you were Patrick Mahomes in the pocket, somebody coming 466 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 1: on your blind side. I felt like I was meeting 467 00:28:55,680 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 1: with Joe Biden's next energy secret check climate blackos, shouting 468 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 1: about how China is not our energy, the climate crisis 469 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 1: is our energy. You're like, oh, I've heard those talking points. 470 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 1: So this by balloon thing you tweeted out the other 471 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 1: day in response to this CBS story about, hey, we've 472 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 1: been tracking this since Monday. What I thought was so 473 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:20,000 Speaker 1: interesting or sorry nescence Monday for like a week before 474 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:24,680 Speaker 1: it arrived in Alaska that you think maybe the National 475 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 1: security apparatus knew about this spy balloon and they didn't 476 00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 1: tell Joe Biden, which would raise a lot of alarming questions. 477 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:34,239 Speaker 1: What makes you think so well, because we know from 478 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 1: news reports now that they tracked that the intelligence community 479 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 1: tracked the spy balloon from the time it took off 480 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:42,240 Speaker 1: in China, so they knew about it. And we also 481 00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 1: know from news reports that Biden wasn't informed about it 482 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:48,280 Speaker 1: till January thirty if to thirty first, after it had 483 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 1: already gone across Alaska and was on the doorstep of Montana. 484 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 1: So it's who's in charge here, That's what I want 485 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 1: to know. I mean, apparently they don't think enough of 486 00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 1: the president. Tell them, and I'll tell you. What else 487 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 1: we know is that the general who's in charge of 488 00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:05,360 Speaker 1: keeping the whole domestic United States safe, what he told 489 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 1: me and what he has said publicly is is that 490 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 1: he couldn't shoot it down because he didn't have authorization. 491 00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:13,000 Speaker 1: So I'm like, oh my gosh, where's the president? What's 492 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 1: he doing with his time? It was he asleep? Is 493 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:17,040 Speaker 1: he napping? I mean he out to ice cream? Where 494 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 1: is he? And why didn't they tell him? It is 495 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:23,000 Speaker 1: crazy stuff, it is. Why do you think that's unique 496 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:24,920 Speaker 1: to Joe Biden or do you think that's a larger 497 00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 1: national security apparatus trying to run rough shot over no 498 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 1: matter who's in the White House. I think it's probably 499 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 1: worse under Biden because I think what this shows is 500 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 1: that they don't have a lot of confidence in him. 501 00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:37,760 Speaker 1: But no, I do think Clay that this is something 502 00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:40,080 Speaker 1: that probably has gone on before, and we've seen this 503 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:42,480 Speaker 1: from some of these top brass and some of the 504 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 1: intelligence community leaders before is they think they know best 505 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 1: and they think, yeah, we'll just make the decision. And 506 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:51,760 Speaker 1: so that's dangerous. I mean, in a country like ours, 507 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 1: it's supposed to be run by we the people are 508 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:55,760 Speaker 1: supposed to be run by elected officials who can be 509 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 1: held accountable. That's a big problem. And that's why I 510 00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,280 Speaker 1: say the fact that the president is out to on 511 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 1: this thing for days, man, that's a huge, huge security risk, 512 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,240 Speaker 1: no doubt. Now you have got a bill. We started 513 00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 1: the yesterday's show talking about this bill. You want to 514 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 1: ban kids from using social media until they are sixteen 515 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:18,400 Speaker 1: years old. We started yesterday show talking about the overwhelming 516 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 1: increase thirty percent of teenage girls have said they thought 517 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 1: about suicide, fifty seven percent of them depressed. This thing 518 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 1: just keeps skyrocketing. What do we need to do to 519 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:30,640 Speaker 1: protect our kids from social media? And I know part 520 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 1: of this involves TikTok as well, which is Chinese owned. 521 00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 1: How would you assess this situation? Well, I think the 522 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,760 Speaker 1: situation is getting worse. I mean, and your father and 523 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,840 Speaker 1: I'm a father of three, and you know our kids 524 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 1: are both young, are all young. I know for both 525 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:48,840 Speaker 1: of us. But listen, you know, when I think about 526 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 1: the changing technology and how hard it is to stay 527 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:53,320 Speaker 1: ahead of it, my ten year old Clay already knows 528 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 1: more about my phone than I do. I mean, it's 529 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:58,560 Speaker 1: the same thing here. My twelve, eight and fifteen year 530 00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 1: olds can run circles around when it comes to using 531 00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 1: an iPhone totally. So when I hear these people say 532 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 1: stuff like well, that's really a matter of the parents education, 533 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 1: I'm like, give me a break. I'm not. I'm you know, 534 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:11,000 Speaker 1: I'm not the smartest guy, but you know, listen, I 535 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:14,720 Speaker 1: mean I am completely in the DAR occurred nearly so 536 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 1: when compared to my kids. So I think setting sixteen 537 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 1: as an age threshold, you've got to be sixteen before 538 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 1: the social media companies can target the kids, before the 539 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:25,720 Speaker 1: social media companies can open up accounts or the kids, 540 00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 1: and you put the verification on the companies, not the parents. 541 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 1: And what we know from the data is the younger 542 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,320 Speaker 1: the kids are when they get on social media, the 543 00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 1: worst it is for them, the worst the mental health effects, 544 00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 1: especially with younger girls. Actually, but it's it's boys and girls. 545 00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:42,240 Speaker 1: So let's just shield those kids and give parents some power. 546 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:44,120 Speaker 1: The other thing we ought to do, Clay, is we 547 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 1: ought to let parents sue the social media companies. I mean, listen, 548 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 1: if your kid's exposed to material that is exploitative on 549 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 1: social media, if your kid suffers major health and mental 550 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:58,640 Speaker 1: health consequences because of what the social media platforms are 551 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:01,240 Speaker 1: doing with their own design, you ought to be able 552 00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:02,840 Speaker 1: to go and have your day on court, your day 553 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:04,640 Speaker 1: in court. You're a lawyer. I mean, this is the 554 00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 1: basic fundamental right to go have your day in court. 555 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:10,600 Speaker 1: Let's give that to parents right now. The social media 556 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,600 Speaker 1: companies are exempted, and that shouldn't be the case. Yeah, 557 00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:15,320 Speaker 1: you know what, and I know you're paying attention to 558 00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:17,920 Speaker 1: this too. The algorithms have to become in some way 559 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:22,800 Speaker 1: public because they are claiming, oh, we're not content companies. 560 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:25,560 Speaker 1: People post their YouTube videos or their comments, and we 561 00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:28,880 Speaker 1: don't we don't choose who gets to see it. The algorithm, 562 00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 1: one hundred percent, Senator, as you well know, guarantees what 563 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:35,640 Speaker 1: kids see and don't see. And they try to hide 564 00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 1: behind that the algorithm is programmed and created by an 565 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:42,280 Speaker 1: individual human. It's not as if they're not making choices 566 00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:45,760 Speaker 1: on content on a daily basis. That is absolutely true. 567 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 1: And these companies ought to be on the hook for 568 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 1: their algorithms, both in terms of what they recommend to kids, 569 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:53,920 Speaker 1: what they exposed kids too, and the content quote unquote moderation, 570 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 1: which the censorship. You know, and we hear this a 571 00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 1: thousand times. Oh we didn't censor, We didn't, that was 572 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 1: just the algorithm. Oh we know now the Twitter files. 573 00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 1: That's not true. These guys at these platforms, and I 574 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 1: guarantee you it isn't just Twitter. They are making the 575 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:11,800 Speaker 1: conscious choice to censor viewpoints. They don't like conservative viewpoints, 576 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:15,360 Speaker 1: libertarian viewpoints, they don't like them. On the COVID vaccine, 577 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:17,919 Speaker 1: we saught a thousand times over they shut it down. 578 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:19,360 Speaker 1: You ought to be able to sue them for this. 579 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,080 Speaker 1: I'm a big believer, and just get power of the the 580 00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,279 Speaker 1: people the regulators. I don't have a lot of faith 581 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:26,160 Speaker 1: in the regulators. So just allow the people to get 582 00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 1: into court. And if you get shadow band or censored 583 00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:31,880 Speaker 1: and the social media companies don't follow their terms of service, 584 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:35,480 Speaker 1: allow people to sue them. How many super Bowls does 585 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:38,160 Speaker 1: Patrick mahomes win? Last question for you and how long 586 00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:40,400 Speaker 1: are you going to gloat about a second Super Bowl? 587 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:43,880 Speaker 1: Championship for your Kansas City Chiefs. I'm going to gloat 588 00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:46,160 Speaker 1: right up until we win the next one next year, 589 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:50,920 Speaker 1: and who knows, maybe he'll get eight, maybe he'll you know, 590 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 1: he's got a chance now to surpass Brady. He's on track. 591 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:56,680 Speaker 1: I mean, it does make me. I'll tell you what. 592 00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 1: I'll say this and the only nice thing I'll say 593 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 1: about Tom Brady, but I will say that seeing what 594 00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:02,880 Speaker 1: Mahomes is doing does make you respect what Brady has 595 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:05,560 Speaker 1: done over the long haul. But Mahomes is he is 596 00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 1: a generational talent. You and I've talked about this, and 597 00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:09,719 Speaker 1: just seeing the way Clay I know you watched the 598 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 1: game or therapit, but just seeing the way that he 599 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:15,240 Speaker 1: adjusted in the second half, the time in the pocket, 600 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 1: the time to release of his throws, you know, faster 601 00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 1: and faster, just exploiting a very good defense on the 602 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:23,240 Speaker 1: part of the Eagles, but knowing that the quicker the release, 603 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:26,040 Speaker 1: the more trouble the Philly defense had with it. And 604 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:28,000 Speaker 1: is to see the difference from first half the second 605 00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:30,600 Speaker 1: half in that adjustment, I mean, you know, that's pretty 606 00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:32,920 Speaker 1: darn good. That's an elite quarterback there. So I think 607 00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:35,280 Speaker 1: he's got a lot left in him, sees a savant. 608 00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:36,759 Speaker 1: I know you're busy. You got to run down to 609 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:38,759 Speaker 1: the Senate floor. Thanks for making the time to us 610 00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:42,560 Speaker 1: today and enjoy that championship. Hey, thank you, thanks for 611 00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:47,120 Speaker 1: having me that Senator Josh Holly. Now he's fantastic, by 612 00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:50,160 Speaker 1: the way, doing a great job in Missouri. Also, I 613 00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 1: believe staff is just updated me. Biden is coming to 614 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:55,799 Speaker 1: the podium. Is he there right now to talk about 615 00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:59,439 Speaker 1: shooting down these objects? Should we go to him live 616 00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 1: as he speaking at this exact moment. But nothing right 617 00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:06,360 Speaker 1: now suggests they were related to China's spy balloon program 618 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 1: or that there were surveillance vehicles from any other country. 619 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 1: The intelligence community's current assessment is that these three objects 620 00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:18,799 Speaker 1: were most likely balloons tied to private companies, recreation, or 621 00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 1: research institutions studying whether or conducting other scientific research. When 622 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:27,920 Speaker 1: I came into office, I instructed our intelligence community to 623 00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:31,840 Speaker 1: take a broad look at the phenomenon of unidentified aerial objects. 624 00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:35,760 Speaker 1: We know that a range of entities, including countries, companies, 625 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 1: and research organizations, operate objects at altitudes for purposes that 626 00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:45,400 Speaker 1: are not nefarious, including legitimate scientific research. I want to 627 00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:48,279 Speaker 1: be clear, we don't have any evidence that there has 628 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:50,880 Speaker 1: been a sudden increase in the number of objects in 629 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 1: the sky. We're now just seeing more of them, partially 630 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:57,920 Speaker 1: because the steps we've taken to increase our radars to 631 00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:01,279 Speaker 1: narrow our radars, and we have to keep adapting our 632 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 1: approach delaying into dealing with these challenges. That's why I've 633 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 1: directed my team to come back to me with sharper 634 00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 1: rules for how we will deal with these unidentified objects 635 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 1: moving forward, distinguishing distinguishing between those that are likely to 636 00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 1: post safety and security risks that necessitate action and those 637 00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 1: that do not. But make no mistake, if any object 638 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 1: presents a threat to the safety security to the American people, 639 00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:31,680 Speaker 1: I will take it down. I'll be sharing with Congress 640 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:36,359 Speaker 1: these classified policy parameters when they are completed, and they'll 641 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:39,279 Speaker 1: remain classified so we don't give our roadmap to our 642 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:44,040 Speaker 1: enemies to try to evade our defenses going forward. These 643 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:47,000 Speaker 1: parameters will guide what actions will take while responding to 644 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:51,200 Speaker 1: unmanned and unidentified aerial objects. We're going to keep adapting 645 00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:54,600 Speaker 1: them as the challenges evolved, if it evolves. In addition, 646 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:57,840 Speaker 1: we've drive directing my National Security advisor to lead a 647 00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:01,120 Speaker 1: government wide effort to make sure we are position to 648 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 1: deal safely and effectively with the objects in our airspace. First, 649 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:11,400 Speaker 1: we will establish a better inventory of unmanned airborne objects 650 00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:15,480 Speaker 1: in space above the United States airspace and make sure 651 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:20,440 Speaker 1: that inventory is accessible and up to date. Second, we 652 00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:23,760 Speaker 1: will implement further measures to improve our capacity to detect 653 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:29,120 Speaker 1: unman objective objects in our airspace. Third, we'll update the 654 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:33,480 Speaker 1: rules and regulations for launching and maintaining unmanned objects in 655 00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 1: the skies above the United States of America. And Fourth, 656 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:40,279 Speaker 1: my Secretary of State will lead an effort to help 657 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:46,600 Speaker 1: establish a global common global norms in this largely unregulated space. 658 00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:50,320 Speaker 1: These steps will lead to safer and more secure skies 659 00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:54,120 Speaker 1: for our air travelers, our military, our scientists, and for 660 00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:57,399 Speaker 1: people on the ground as well. That's my job as 661 00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:00,799 Speaker 1: your president commander in chief. As the events of the 662 00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:04,120 Speaker 1: previous days of shown, we'll always act to protect the 663 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:07,319 Speaker 1: interest of the American people and the security of American people. 664 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:12,360 Speaker 1: Since I came to office, we've developed the ability to identify, track, 665 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 1: and study high altitudes surveillance balloons connected with the Chinese military. 666 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:20,120 Speaker 1: When one of these high altitudes surveillance balloons entered our 667 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:23,080 Speaker 1: airspace over the continent of the United States earlier in 668 00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:25,560 Speaker 1: the month. I gave the order to shoot it down 669 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:28,040 Speaker 1: as soon as it would be safe to do so. 670 00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:31,760 Speaker 1: The military advised against shooting it down over land because 671 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:34,360 Speaker 1: of the sheer size of it. It was the size 672 00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:37,399 Speaker 1: of multiple school buses and opposed the risk to people 673 00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:41,760 Speaker 1: on the ground if it was shot down where people lived. Instead, 674 00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:45,799 Speaker 1: we tracked it closely. We analyze its capabilities, and we 675 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 1: learned more about how it operates, and because we knew 676 00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:52,880 Speaker 1: its path, we were able to protect sensitive sites against collection. 677 00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 1: We waited until it was safety over water, which would 678 00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,720 Speaker 1: not only protect civilians but also enable us to recover 679 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:05,760 Speaker 1: stantial components for further endless for further analytics, and then 680 00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:09,640 Speaker 1: we shot it down, sending a clear message, clear message, 681 00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:13,840 Speaker 1: the violation of our sovereignty is unacceptable. We'll act to 682 00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:18,359 Speaker 1: protect our country, and we did now. This past Friday, 683 00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:21,560 Speaker 1: we put restrictions on six firms that directly support the 684 00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:26,920 Speaker 1: People's Republic Liberation Army People's People's Liberation Army aerospace program 685 00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:33,279 Speaker 1: that includes airships and balloons, denying them access to US technology. 686 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:36,560 Speaker 1: We briefed our diplomatic partners and our allies around the world, 687 00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:40,439 Speaker 1: and we know about China's program and where their balloons. Okay, 688 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:43,440 Speaker 1: pulling out a Biden there, as he is continuing to 689 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:48,400 Speaker 1: speak in ramble. We will continue to roll on that effectively. 690 00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:51,719 Speaker 1: The news that is I think most significant is he's 691 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:55,160 Speaker 1: now saying we shot down three objects that were probably 692 00:40:55,480 --> 00:41:02,600 Speaker 1: private companies or university related balloons materials up there that 693 00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:05,880 Speaker 1: we're in no way connected to China and weren't dangerous 694 00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:09,239 Speaker 1: to us. We'll pull that clip in particular for you. 695 00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 1: He was just saying that when we came out of 696 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:15,600 Speaker 1: the Josh Holly interview, and will continue a role if 697 00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:19,440 Speaker 1: he continues to take questions as we go forward. Here, 698 00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:22,640 Speaker 1: as he's finally addressing the three objects that were shot down. 699 00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:25,600 Speaker 1: Over the past week, one report after another, we're hearing 700 00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:29,160 Speaker 1: about how poorly our kids in schools have tested the Yorks. 701 00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:32,520 Speaker 1: They're exceptions, but the overall report card is kids in 702 00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:35,480 Speaker 1: public school are not getting the right K to twelve education. 703 00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 1: Hillsdale College understands the importance of education for the future 704 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:42,160 Speaker 1: of our country, so much so that the college president, 705 00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:45,279 Speaker 1: doctor Larry arn recently spoke out on this topic, which 706 00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:48,840 Speaker 1: you can read in the latest issue of Imprimus.

Clay Travis and 719 00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:39,759 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Voices of Sanity and Insane World. Welcome back 720 00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:42,799 Speaker 1: in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show. Okay, we got a 721 00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:45,240 Speaker 1: lot to hit here. There's a lot of breaking news 722 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:47,680 Speaker 1: out here. I told you yesterday by the way, that 723 00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:50,040 Speaker 1: I was going to discuss Clarence Thomas and the Uncle 724 00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:53,960 Speaker 1: Tom allegations. There's so many stories breaking right now. Try 725 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:58,200 Speaker 1: to get to that tomorrow. This just came down. John 726 00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:03,400 Speaker 1: Fetterman has checked him self into Walter Reid to receive 727 00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:08,600 Speaker 1: treatment for clinical depression. Fetterman obviously recently elected to the Senate. 728 00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:14,600 Speaker 1: I'm reading from this Chief of Staff press release. Last night, 729 00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:19,839 Speaker 1: Senator John Fetterman checked himself into Walter Reed National Military 730 00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:24,600 Speaker 1: Medical Center to receive treatment for clinical depression. While John 731 00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:28,000 Speaker 1: has experienced depression off and on throughout his life, it 732 00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:32,680 Speaker 1: only became severe in recent weeks. On Monday, John was 733 00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:38,400 Speaker 1: evaluated by doctor Brian Monahan, attending Physician of the Congress. Yesterday. 734 00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:43,200 Speaker 1: He recommended impatient care at Walter Reed. John agreed, and 735 00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:47,839 Speaker 1: he's receiving treatment on a voluntary basis. After examining John, 736 00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:50,640 Speaker 1: the doctors at Walter Reed told us John is getting 737 00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:54,120 Speaker 1: the care he needs and will soon be back to himself. 738 00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:59,200 Speaker 1: I mean, I feel, I mean, just being honest. First 739 00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:02,640 Speaker 1: of all, being oppressed. There's nothing wrong with being depressed, right, 740 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:05,640 Speaker 1: So if you are out there, particularly for men, if 741 00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:08,080 Speaker 1: you are out there and you are depressed, there's nothing 742 00:44:08,120 --> 00:44:13,600 Speaker 1: wrong about seeking treatment trying to make yourself healthy better mentally, physically. Okay, 743 00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:16,840 Speaker 1: So let me start with that. I just feel so 744 00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:20,879 Speaker 1: bad for John Fetterman right now. Honestly, I think that 745 00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:26,640 Speaker 1: he has been a pawn that demonstrates how reckless Democrat 746 00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:31,280 Speaker 1: pursuit of power is. The guy was not physically healthy 747 00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:35,640 Speaker 1: enough to run for Senate. He's already had to be 748 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:39,719 Speaker 1: in the hospital. Was that last week? I think because 749 00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:44,040 Speaker 1: he was concerned about his physical health, and now he's 750 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:49,600 Speaker 1: concerned about his mental health. And I just feel so 751 00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:54,200 Speaker 1: bad that his family didn't step in after this stroke 752 00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 1: that he had that nearly killed him in May and say, 753 00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:04,480 Speaker 1: John Fetterman, you cannot run for Senate right now. And 754 00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:09,160 Speaker 1: anybody who watched that debate against doctor Oz saw how 755 00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:15,520 Speaker 1: reckless it was. I saw doctor Oz Saturday at the 756 00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:19,080 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. He's a big Eagles fan, talked with him 757 00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:23,560 Speaker 1: for ten or fifteen minutes. Doctor Oz would have been 758 00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:26,799 Speaker 1: able to do that job as Pennsylvania Senator without an 759 00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:31,479 Speaker 1: ounce of difficulty. He's a picture of health. There could 760 00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:36,960 Speaker 1: have been another Pennsylvania Democrat they put forward as the nominee, 761 00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:42,680 Speaker 1: and now this guy's got a six year term that 762 00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:48,440 Speaker 1: he clearly can't serve. I just again, that's breaking news. Again. 763 00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:52,160 Speaker 1: I just feel bad for John Fetterman. He's not physically 764 00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:54,960 Speaker 1: or mentally capable of doing this job. And it was 765 00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:59,840 Speaker 1: self evident. And again I'm not saying for those of 766 00:45:59,880 --> 00:46:03,799 Speaker 1: you out there that have struggles in your life, particularly 767 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:05,920 Speaker 1: the military. I think one of the saddest things that 768 00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:09,719 Speaker 1: happens in American life is how many people serve their 769 00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:13,440 Speaker 1: country and then come back and commit suicide because they 770 00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:18,000 Speaker 1: have so much post traumatic stress associated with that service 771 00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:20,640 Speaker 1: and they can't get the help that they need. It's 772 00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:25,319 Speaker 1: not weak to need help, but when you combine the 773 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 1: physical and mental issues that John Fetterman has right now, 774 00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:36,719 Speaker 1: I mean, the guy was just a pawn. They just 775 00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:39,520 Speaker 1: used him. Man. They didn't care about him at all, 776 00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:46,440 Speaker 1: his own family, the entire Democrat Party, the entire Democrat apparatus. 777 00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:51,160 Speaker 1: They lied and said he was healthy. Poor guys in 778 00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:54,040 Speaker 1: the hospital last week for physical issues. Now he's in 779 00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:57,200 Speaker 1: the hospital this week for mental issues. He's trying to 780 00:46:57,239 --> 00:47:02,840 Speaker 1: recover from a stroke. They're gonna kill him just because 781 00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:07,920 Speaker 1: they wanted that seat so desperately, you know. I mean 782 00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:10,600 Speaker 1: we talk about good and evil a lot in this country. 783 00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:19,600 Speaker 1: That's evil. I mean, tell me how it's not. I 784 00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:22,399 Speaker 1: would like to think that all of you out there, 785 00:47:23,920 --> 00:47:28,480 Speaker 1: if your dad, or your husband or your grandpa was 786 00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:34,880 Speaker 1: so physically and mentally in difficult, dire, straight circumstances. Remember 787 00:47:34,880 --> 00:47:38,880 Speaker 1: we're seeing this publicly that he had to check himself 788 00:47:38,880 --> 00:47:41,080 Speaker 1: into the hospital for treatment, and now he's having to 789 00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:45,880 Speaker 1: check himself physical treatment, now for mental treatment. Imagine what 790 00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:49,880 Speaker 1: they were seeing behind the scenes. This is my thing. 791 00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:53,600 Speaker 1: We only see these people for five percent of the 792 00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:59,919 Speaker 1: day at most. Your family knows the truth they see 793 00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:02,799 Speaker 1: at ninety five percent of the time. They know what 794 00:48:02,840 --> 00:48:04,680 Speaker 1: you'll look like when you go to bed, They know 795 00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:06,399 Speaker 1: what you'll look like when you get out of bed. 796 00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:08,600 Speaker 1: They know what you're like at breakfast, they know what 797 00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:10,600 Speaker 1: you're like at dinner. They know what you're like when 798 00:48:10,600 --> 00:48:16,600 Speaker 1: the cameras aren't rolling, and they let this happen. The 799 00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:19,759 Speaker 1: staff all knew, not only this, they went to war 800 00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:25,000 Speaker 1: with the reporter who said, this guy's physically not capable 801 00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:28,279 Speaker 1: of doing the job. Remember how much they attacked her, 802 00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:31,360 Speaker 1: that NBC reporter who said, yeah, I tried to do 803 00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:38,640 Speaker 1: an interview and he basically couldn't speak. Anybody who watched 804 00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:44,719 Speaker 1: that debate saw this, and I just they're gonna try 805 00:48:44,719 --> 00:48:47,359 Speaker 1: to turn this story into, oh, how dare you bring 806 00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:49,719 Speaker 1: up John Fetterman's health, which is what they said during 807 00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:54,360 Speaker 1: the campaign. My response is, how dare you let this happen? 808 00:48:56,280 --> 00:49:00,680 Speaker 1: How dare you? I hope if I ever have a 809 00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:04,560 Speaker 1: serious health condition, that my wife would say, no, you 810 00:49:04,680 --> 00:49:07,719 Speaker 1: can't do radio. You're not well. My job's not that 811 00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:12,279 Speaker 1: important in the grand scheme of things. Your brain's not 812 00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:15,040 Speaker 1: working like it should be. I don't want you sitting 813 00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:17,840 Speaker 1: down in front of a microphone for three hours every day. 814 00:49:20,640 --> 00:49:22,359 Speaker 1: I would hope my wife would say that. I would 815 00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:25,080 Speaker 1: hope my own parents would say that. I would hope 816 00:49:25,080 --> 00:49:27,120 Speaker 1: as my kids get older that they would say that. 817 00:49:29,520 --> 00:49:31,839 Speaker 1: And I certainly would hope that our staff who's sitting 818 00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:34,879 Speaker 1: behind the scenes would say that to me, and then 819 00:49:34,880 --> 00:49:40,000 Speaker 1: my co host would say that to me. Lying to 820 00:49:40,080 --> 00:49:45,040 Speaker 1: try to get power at the expense of someone's mental 821 00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:49,040 Speaker 1: and physical health, to me is frankly flat out evil. 822 00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:56,120 Speaker 1: It's venal, it's indefensible, and we've taken shots. I think 823 00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:59,480 Speaker 1: John Fetterman's wrong on a lot of the issues, virtually 824 00:49:59,520 --> 00:50:02,360 Speaker 1: all of them for Pennsylvania. I mean, he's Bernie Sanders 825 00:50:02,360 --> 00:50:05,760 Speaker 1: in a hoodie. But I want the guy to be okay, 826 00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:09,480 Speaker 1: and right now, I just feel awful for him, because 827 00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:11,840 Speaker 1: everybody who worked on that Senate campaign knew that he 828 00:50:11,880 --> 00:50:15,239 Speaker 1: wasn't up for the job. His entire family knew that 829 00:50:15,239 --> 00:50:18,200 Speaker 1: he wasn't up for the job. You could see by 830 00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:20,480 Speaker 1: looking at him that he wasn't up for the job. 831 00:50:21,600 --> 00:50:24,919 Speaker 1: And yet they were so desperate and craven in their 832 00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:28,640 Speaker 1: pursuit of power that they didn't give a damn about him. 833 00:50:31,920 --> 00:50:33,840 Speaker 1: And I don't feel like he can serve six years, 834 00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:37,359 Speaker 1: and that's probably what they thought at the beginning. We're 835 00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:41,080 Speaker 1: just going to drag him across, get him elected, and 836 00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:44,200 Speaker 1: then we'll have the governor appoint a new Senator to 837 00:50:44,280 --> 00:50:48,799 Speaker 1: fulfill his term. He's just a body. We gotta have 838 00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:52,000 Speaker 1: the body right now. We don't care what happens to 839 00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:58,040 Speaker 1: him as soon as he wins this election. Sad man, 840 00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:03,120 Speaker 1: It really is not even just from a political perspective, 841 00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:06,880 Speaker 1: but that a party would be this vial and allow 842 00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:11,960 Speaker 1: this to happen. I feel bad for him, all right. 843 00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:14,080 Speaker 1: So that just happened, So I'm reacting to that. In 844 00:51:14,120 --> 00:51:16,319 Speaker 1: real time we come back, we'll play Joe Biden the 845 00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:18,080 Speaker 1: comments that he made about the three objects that he 846 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:20,600 Speaker 1: shot down. We'll also tell you what Don Lemon said 847 00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,680 Speaker 1: in response to saying a woman's outside of her prime 848 00:51:23,800 --> 00:51:26,839 Speaker 1: all that still to come, but want to close out 849 00:51:26,880 --> 00:51:29,279 Speaker 1: shop here with this final ad, and I gotta tell 850 00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:33,000 Speaker 1: you about our friends at My Pillow.
