Secondly, you were actually willing to walk to 15 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:49,680 Speaker 1: a restaurant. You didn't get in an uber and get 16 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:51,960 Speaker 1: told to put an ask on. I I was excited 17 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 1: about the barbecue situation here. As you know, you go 18 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:57,639 Speaker 1: across the country, so I've spent a lot of time 19 00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:00,080 Speaker 1: in Texas. Yes, i'd say more than any other play 20 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 1: that has a lot of barbecue pride. Although believe it 21 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 1: or not Brooklyn, New York. I've heard that day. I've 22 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 1: heard that they're trying to brag about their barbecue in Brooklyn. 23 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 1: Didn't the New York Times like say Brooklyn barbecue was 24 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 1: the best at some point in the world, like Revolted. 25 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 1: You have to remember in Brooklyn barbecue, you're supposed to 26 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: know like the name of the cow before you eat it, 27 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:20,839 Speaker 1: and was the cow treated? You know in a way 28 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 1: that there is an organically yea, the best possible, uh, 29 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 1: the wago or whatever it is, and you got yes, Okay, 30 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 1: that makes sense. I had been here before visiting. Uh. 31 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,840 Speaker 1: We had dinner and my girlfriend was with me and 32 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 1: we wanted to go. So we went to an I 33 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 1: can't remember the name. It was great restaurant in downtown Nashville. 34 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:43,039 Speaker 1: But we actually asked the chef, what's the best barbecue restaurant. 35 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:44,400 Speaker 1: I don't want to give the all three of them, 36 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: because he gave us three. Yeah, there's a lot, but 37 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 1: peg Leg Porker was on the list. I went to 38 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: place and I walked right to us, right in the 39 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 1: neighborhood here. I mean Nashville barbecue. I love Texas barbecue. 40 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: To Nashville barbecue A North Carolina Barbecue last summer.

There's a lot 44 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,520 Speaker 1: of really good barbecue places in downtown Nashville that you 45 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 1: can walk to. Edley's Barbecue, Martin's Barbecue. I'm giving a 46 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 1: shout out to your peg leg Porker. But you were 47 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 1: blown away. You came in and you were like, dude, 48 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 1: this peg like Porker place was phenomenal. One of I mean, 49 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,800 Speaker 1: Hard Aid in Dallas is amazing. There are some others 50 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 1: that I'd have to throw a peg leg Porker one 51 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: of the best barbecue experiences I've ever had. And it's 52 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: like just it's exactly what you want. You go into 53 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 1: the place, they're like calling out the number and you 54 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:35,239 Speaker 1: sit down. See here's here's the secret. The sides when 55 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: a barbecue place, Yeah, a lot of them have great meat. 56 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 1: Let's just which is obviously the main event, right, you're 57 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 1: there for that, but the sides were absolutely astonishing. That's 58 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 1: what you got to have. Pegleg Porker has There's been 59 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 1: a big dispute in Nashville local politics about property taxes 60 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 1: getting jacked up by the mayor of Nashville, who's been 61 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: kind of an imbecile during COVID to be frank, not 62 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:02,399 Speaker 1: an imbecile like like you know, Build de Blasio necessarily 63 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 1: or many other big city mayors, but of Tennessee has 64 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 1: done a really good job of trying to keep everything 65 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: up and running. But I guarantee you that he will 66 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:13,519 Speaker 1: hear that you have been there the owner of PEG 67 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 1: like porker, and he's going to be like this is 68 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,359 Speaker 1: this is one of the highlights of his year. It's 69 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: been a tough year, but the food there is amazing. 70 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:24,959 Speaker 1: You know what I did. There's a new Pixar movie out, 71 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: and my six year old gets to dictate pretty much 72 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 1: everything in our house, and so we watched the new 73 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: Pixar movie. And then College World Series is underway, and 74 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: I think for those people out there who are maybe 75 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 1: you're turned off by the political nature of a lot 76 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: of sports, the College World Series is I think the 77 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 1: most underrated sporting event in the entire country. And Vanderbilt 78 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 1: had a game against Stanford that was going on last night, 79 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: which was an extraordinary game, and so that was the 80 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 1: wild night that I had. I watched Pixar movies, eight Pizza, 81 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: and watch baseball Vanderbilt versus Stanford. Are all the guys 82 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 1: in the dugout drinking frappuccinos? You know? Are they all 83 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: looking through a monocle at each other out at the 84 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 1: left field? You know? I think Vanderbilt. This is my 85 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: personal opinion. I think Vanderbilt and Stanford are the two 86 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: best universities in the entire country. Now, I happen to 87 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,159 Speaker 1: be a double alam of Vanderbilt, so I'm a little 88 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,600 Speaker 1: bit biased there. But I grew up at Nashville. I 89 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 1: had never been out to the West Coast at all 90 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: until I was in college. One of my roommates was 91 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: from San Francisco, so we went out and spent some 92 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 1: time in San Francisco before San Francisco had gone in 93 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 1: saying this was when San Francisco was just kind of 94 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 1: rising into into the tech behema that it would become. 95 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: And Stanford, I think maybe maybe the most beautiful campus 96 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: anywhere in the country. I gotta tell you, San Francisco 97 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 1: should be one of the greatest cities in the way 98 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 1: based on how incredibly beautiful it is. But instead we 99 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 1: have to look at this and say, at least some 100 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 1: of these places now are big, bright neon signs of 101 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 1: what happens when the far left social justice totally true 102 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 1: gets turned into nobody fights. This is one of the 103 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 1: benefits Buck, I think of people fighting, whether you agree 104 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:13,280 Speaker 1: or disagree a battle. When you have one party rule, 105 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 1: it basically turns into a form of totalitarianism and you 106 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:19,480 Speaker 1: don't end up having real debates going on. So I 107 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:21,479 Speaker 1: touched people lots of friends who live out in the 108 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 1: Bay Area. You can't walk around without needles being everywhere. 109 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 1: You can't like the idea that you would leave anything 110 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: into a car. You basically have to leave your car 111 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 1: door unlocked so that people don't break your windows to 112 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 1: steal things. And if they do steal things. We talked 113 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,919 Speaker 1: about this the viral video of the guy going in 114 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 1: and just unloading inside of the inside of the convenience store. 115 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: They don't even do anything to people breaking the law. Now, 116 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: the great red migration to red states is a result 117 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: I think in part of how some of these states 118 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: at the you know, the whole state has gotten so blue, yes, 119 00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:59,919 Speaker 1: that it doesn't matter how crazy things get in the city, 120 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 1: because there won't be any any upper level effect in 121 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: the state government because I remember, I mean, we saw 122 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 1: this during COVID in New York with Governor Cuomo, who 123 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: occasionally would just lay the smack down on de Blasio. 124 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,720 Speaker 1: The state. You know, the state government's more powerful than 125 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: the local government. But when you have a blue blue 126 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: city and a super blue state, what do you have 127 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 1: for people that want to actually have some sanity, have 128 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 1: constitutional rights, lower taxes. You got folks like me, for example, 129 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: many others. You know, my two brothers moved to Florida 130 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 1: on the last year. I'm here with you in Nashville 131 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: right now. Texas, Florida, the Carolinas are getting a lot 132 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 1: of people to Idaho. These are all states that and 133 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,720 Speaker 1: people say, oh, don't bring your left wing politics here. 134 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,840 Speaker 1: The people that are coming now from this is anecdotal, 135 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 1: but they tend to be the red the red voters 136 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 1: in the blue states. They are everyone needs to say. 137 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: You know, I'm showing up at peg leg Porker. Don't worry. 138 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: They are refugees in my neighborhood right now. I live 139 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 1: in an area of Nashville called Franklin, Tennessee. There is 140 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:04,039 Speaker 1: in a seal house for sale, not one, because everybody 141 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 1: from California and everybody from New York and a lot 142 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 1: of people from the Chicago area, they're so fed up 143 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 1: with what is going on in their state, and people 144 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: here get nervous. They say, hey, don't bring your failed 145 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 1: politics to my part of the country, right, don't be 146 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 1: a locust destroy and ravage everything there and then support 147 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: the same politics that made you leave. I am cautiously 148 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: optimistic that the people who are leaving are totally fed up. 149 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 1: And here's a crazy stat for you, buck. More people 150 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 1: voted for Donald Trump in this state of California than 151 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: in Texas. Now that's partly a function of population, certainly, 152 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: but Texas got a lot of people too. There are 153 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 1: so many people, I think, fed up that are in 154 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 1: California and in New York that this was the tipping 155 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 1: point for them. COVID and the insanity. Los Angeles County 156 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:58,239 Speaker 1: I think has over a million registered Republicans. New York City, 157 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 1: I know, has over a million register Republicans. You start 158 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 1: to look at the the aggregate numbers, the overall numbers, 159 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: and even in a lot of these very blue states, 160 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: you know, maybe it's sixty percent Democrats stay wide in 161 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: some of the big states. But that still means you 162 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: got a big chunk of folks who are trying to 163 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 1: figure out what what are we going to do here? 164 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 1: And you know, what really should be the next steps. 165 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 1: And I think that the fact that people are voting 166 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 1: with their feet in the way that they are is 167 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: a good thing. You know, by the way, to your 168 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 1: point about people not bringing their left wing politics with them, 169 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 1: which has been a huge complaint. You know, I was 170 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: in Austin recently and they're always saying in Austin, Texas, 171 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: they're always saying in Austin, this is what happens when 172 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 1: all the Californians who are liberal not you read not 173 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,440 Speaker 1: you read voter Californians show up. But my brothers, one 174 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 1: of the things we like to do is we go 175 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 1: to we go to gun ranges, tackle ranges, and my 176 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 1: brothers are big gun enthusiasts as a mile though it's 177 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 1: difficult in New York City. And one of my brothers 178 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,199 Speaker 1: was in a he's in he's buying his first as 179 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,520 Speaker 1: a resident of Florida, his first legal firearm in the 180 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 1: state of Florida. And the guy kind of as they 181 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 1: checking out, he's just like he saw his New York 182 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 1: license or you know, he had just rather he saw 183 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 1: something in his data that he's from New York. I 184 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 1: think he had changed over his license, but he saw 185 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:10,079 Speaker 1: that he had changed over from New York. And he's 186 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 1: just like, don't bring your politics here, buddy. At the 187 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 1: gun store, of course. Yeah, of all the places. I'll 188 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 1: tell you this. One of my buddies who lives in 189 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,840 Speaker 1: my neighborhood. Every time he meets someone who has newly 190 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 1: moved in, the first thing he says is red or blue, 191 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 1: And almost to a word, there is a oh red. 192 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 1: The reason we're coming here is because we have been 193 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 1: driven insane by California or New York. This has been 194 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 1: the tipping point. And now I understand a lot of 195 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 1: people out there listening to us right now, the concern 196 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 1: in North Carolina, the concern in Georgia, the concern in 197 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 1: many of these states, that southern states in particular, that 198 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 1: are right there on the pivot point North Carolina, close 199 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: Senate race, close decision, and who was going to be 200 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 1: a win the twenty twenty election. Obviously we know all 201 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 1: of the insanity that's been going on in Georgia. Those 202 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 1: aren't George. And those aren't North Carolinians, right, Those are 203 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 1: people who have been transplanted from the East coast. And 204 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 1: so that's the fear in places like Tennessee, Texas, Florida 205 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 1: that all these outsiders are going to come in and 206 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 1: start to bring their left wing politics with them. I'm 207 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 1: hopeful that's not going to be the case, because I 208 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 1: think the reason they're coming here is because of the 209 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 1: exact opposite reason. Can I do a super smooth transition 210 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 1: on guns now to the Democrats pretending that it's not 211 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:29,960 Speaker 1: defund the police. That's the problem, folks, it's guns again. 212 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 1: Just suddenly guns. That's what Joe Biden gave a speech 213 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: about yesterday. Play and I are going to break this down, 214 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 1: and I mean break it down because it was a 215 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 1: lot of absurdity, misdirection and silliness. Should we play the 216 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 1: Joe Biden ridiculous clip first as we're about to go 217 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 1: to break here, and then play it again for people 218 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,079 Speaker 1: to enjoy as we come back to break all this down. 219 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 1: When stupid clips exist, Buck, I feel like there's a 220 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 1: lot of value in being able to enjoy them more 221 00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: than once. So let's go ahead and do that. Mike 222 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 1: pot up Joe Biden, letting everybody know that if they 223 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:06,359 Speaker 1: really want to overthrow the government, they need F fifteens 224 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 1: at nuclear weapons, not guns. The Second Amendment from the 225 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 1: day it was passed limited the type of people who 226 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 1: could own a gun and what type of weapon you 227 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,680 Speaker 1: could own. You couldn't buy cannon. Those to say the 228 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:21,560 Speaker 1: blood of the blood of patriots, you know, and all 229 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: the stuff about how we're gonna have to move against 230 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 1: the government, Well, the tree of liberty is not one 231 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: of the blood of patriots. What's happened is that they're 232 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: never been. If you wanted to think you need to 233 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 1: have weapons to take on the government, you need F 234 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 1: fifteens and maybe some nuclear weapons. The point is that 235 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 1: it's always been the ability to limit rationally limit the 236 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 1: type of weapon that can be on and who can 237 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 1: own it. It's like he's never heard of Afghanistan for 238 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 1: the last well going on decades now. Actually quite sometimes 239 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 1: it's some money we spent over there. And also I'm 240 00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:00,320 Speaker 1: pretty sure there was a group of ragtag rebel a 241 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 1: few hundred years ago who were greatly outmanned out guns, 242 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,679 Speaker 1: and yet a bunch of guys in red coats had 243 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:11,200 Speaker 1: to find somewhere else to hang out, because turns out 244 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 1: that an armed citizenry can be quite effective against tyranny. 245 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 1: But we don't play We will return to that. We'll 246 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,320 Speaker 1: play that clip for you again. It's an embarrassment by 247 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:21,120 Speaker 1: the way that that's the president of the United States 248 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 1: and just the way he's talking. I mean, come on, 249 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,960 Speaker 1: that is a ridiculous Joe Biden is a sub mediocrity. 250 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 1: That's the way this guy. He's just been around for 251 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 1: that long. He's the guy who is in the back office, 252 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 1: and you're like, what exactly, and now they've made him president, 253 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 1: You're like, what does he even do here? He's Milton 254 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,719 Speaker 1: Wadham's at the top of the Democrat Party. For you 255 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 1: office space fans, that's one of the best movies of 256 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,320 Speaker 1: all time. Totally. It really is. All right, we come back. 257 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 1: We're gonna play that clip for you again, and we'll 258 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:49,439 Speaker 1: also discuss what the significance is of the Democratic Party 259 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 1: suddenly finding religion on the absurdity of defund the police. 260 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 1: But first we want to let you know, if there's 261 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,960 Speaker 1: anything we've learned since twenty twenty, nothing quite as important 262 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 1: as a powerful system over twenty years ago, doctor Dennis Black. 263 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:08,719 Speaker 1: He invented Texas Superfood and it is the original Texas Superfood. 264 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 1: It is incredible.

What's 289 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 1: happened is that there never been If you wanted to 290 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 1: think you need to have weapons to take on the government, 291 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 1: you need f fifteens and maybe some nuclear weapons. The 292 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 1: point is that it's always been the ability to limit 293 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 1: rationally limit the type of weapon that can be on 294 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: and who can own it. Welcome back to the Clay 295 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 1: Travis and Buck Saxton Show. Buck Saxton here, Clay Travis 296 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 1: right with me, diving into Joe Biden's I think largely 297 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 1: diversionary speech yesterday meant to take away from the notion 298 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 1: that defund the police, as we discussed on this show, 299 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 1: took quite quite a hit, at least in the New 300 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: York City mayoral election where the pro police candidate came 301 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 1: out on top, and that could have ramifications for similar 302 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 1: races and certainly raises the eyebrows of some Democrats looking 303 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 1: closely at what it's going to turn into four the 304 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 1: mid terms. We want to hear your thoughts on the 305 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 1: Biden gun speech. I mean, here he goes again. This 306 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 1: is the same stuff we always hear Biden going anti 307 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 1: gun eight hundred two eight two eight two eight hundred 308 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 1: two eight two to eight A two. Remember to go 309 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 1: to Clay and Buck dot com for news stories that 310 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 1: we're talking about, and also transcripts and other fun stuff 311 00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 1: from the show. Clay, what do you find? This is 312 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:52,000 Speaker 1: one of those those soundbites that we have where we 313 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 1: could we could tear it apart in five or ten 314 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 1: different ways and go on for an hour. But I 315 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 1: want your top of the line. Why is this among 316 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 1: the dumbest, probably the worst, but among the dumbest things 317 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 1: that Biden said yesterday in the speech. What jumps out 318 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 1: to me, Buck, is this is the exact opposite of 319 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 1: the argument surrounding the in quotes insurrection, which is really just, 320 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:19,120 Speaker 1: let's be honest, a riot among a billion riots that 321 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 1: took place surrounding twenty twenty at the Capitol. And what 322 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 1: do I mean by that? You heard and have heard 323 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 1: and continue to hear from Democrats that this was a 324 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 1: legitimate assault upon government. That's the entire purpose of calling 325 00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 1: it an insurrection. Yet virtually no one was armed with anything. Buck, 326 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 1: Everyone just about who went into the capitol, by the way, 327 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 1: the most majority of people just kind of did it 328 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:48,400 Speaker 1: as a gallivanting type thing. But even the ones who 329 00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 1: went into the capitol and had been charged with serious wrongdoing, 330 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 1: almost none of them had what we would consider to 331 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 1: be any sort of traditional weapon. Right. Yet people are saying, oh, 332 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 1: this was an insurrection, they were trying to overthrow the government. Well, 333 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:07,360 Speaker 1: now we have Joe Biden here, Buck saying, if you're 334 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:09,679 Speaker 1: going to really try to take over the government, you 335 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 1: need F fifteens and maybe some nuclear weapons. I'm not 336 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 1: an expert and exactly what everybody had who was involved 337 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:19,120 Speaker 1: in the quote insurrection, But Buck, I didn't see any 338 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 1: F fifteens parked outside of the US capital, and I 339 00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 1: certainly didn't see anybody with any kind of tactical nuclear 340 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: weapons that they were trying to storm the capital with. 341 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,120 Speaker 1: And you'll also have to wonder, this is a commander 342 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 1: in chief. He is folks in Joe Biden, who seems 343 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:37,880 Speaker 1: to have very little understanding of the history of rebellion, 344 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 1: of counterinsurgency, of US military operations and other countries, military 345 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 1: operations in developing world countries, stretching back now for a 346 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 1: long time. It's not just as easy as we have nukes, 347 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:53,679 Speaker 1: so we will control you. I mean, this is an 348 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 1: idiotic thing that the left often says. They roll this 349 00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:01,160 Speaker 1: argument out, and it's because they honestly, guns is an area. 350 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:02,480 Speaker 1: And I want to come back this with you, Clay. 351 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 1: I want to put this thought out there. It doesn't 352 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,879 Speaker 1: matter how ignorant a leftist is when it comes to guns, 353 00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 1: as long as they are opposed and they know that 354 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 1: it's virtue signaling with ignorance attached to it, and they 355 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 1: don't care. It doesn't even journalists, it doesn't matter to 356 00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:17,679 Speaker 1: them whatsoever. We'll come back to this in just a second. 357 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,359 Speaker 1: But you know, the secret is out.

Welcome back to 374 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 1: the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show. I am Buck 375 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,639 Speaker 1: Sexton and my main man here at Clay Travis. We 376 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 1: are diving into this Biden speech. It's it's like a 377 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:34,439 Speaker 1: speech that we've all heard already from the left a 378 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:38,239 Speaker 1: million times about guns. He's saying stuff about how no 379 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 1: one needs a hundred rounds. Meanwhile, and things like the 380 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:44,359 Speaker 1: New York Safe Act give you a sense of how 381 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:47,680 Speaker 1: this goes. They banned ten round magazines, which is standard 382 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,360 Speaker 1: and pretty much all handguns that you would go out 383 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 1: and buy, So you have to go get a special 384 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 1: a special magazine, not a not a clip by the 385 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 1: way you call it a clip. All all of conservative 386 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: media comes for you. And I'm going to defer to 387 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 1: you Buck on all gun related issues, even though I 388 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 1: am from Tennessee, and when you are young in the 389 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 1: state of Tennessee, they give you guns and just let 390 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 1: you start shooting at things, right like, that's kind of 391 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:15,680 Speaker 1: a birthright in the South. See, I've had to deal 392 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:17,640 Speaker 1: with it from the opposite end, which is where if 393 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:20,119 Speaker 1: you want to get a gun in New York City 394 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,879 Speaker 1: and I'm not even talking about getting a concealed carry 395 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,960 Speaker 1: if you want a premise permit. And people in Texas 396 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,359 Speaker 1: and Tennessee and Florida and you know, and Montana name 397 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 1: a state, right, I mean, I just I can't name 398 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:32,879 Speaker 1: all the red states right now. They're gonna laugh at this. 399 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 1: You have to wait about six to nine months, probably 400 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,360 Speaker 1: more like over a year now that the post COVID 401 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:42,160 Speaker 1: bureaucratic thing has a delayed everything. You have to go 402 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:46,760 Speaker 1: get a fingerprinted background checked on cost you three hundred 403 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 1: and fifty bucks or something like that. And this is 404 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 1: to be able to own a anything, a shotgun for going, 405 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 1: you know, sporting clays, you know, anything you want to do, 406 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:58,880 Speaker 1: and you have to keep the weapon in a lockbox 407 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:01,359 Speaker 1: with a lock on it. This is the actual rule. 408 00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 1: Your ammunition in a separate locked box. And oh, by 409 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 1: the way, a trigger guard on the firearm that is 410 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,479 Speaker 1: in the locked box. So the best thing you can 411 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 1: do when the when the home invasion of the burglar 412 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:18,680 Speaker 1: comes is actually throw your weapon in the case at 413 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 1: the guy's head. So that's that's how the Libs actually 414 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:25,119 Speaker 1: want to do gun control. This is all wild to me. Well, 415 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 1: the good thing is we know that all of the 416 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 1: criminals are definitely putting their weapons in that manner. The 417 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:35,399 Speaker 1: video that went viral in Brooklyn, I believe it was. 418 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,120 Speaker 1: I'm sure you've seen it of the kids, the thirteen 419 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:39,840 Speaker 1: year old and the six year old out in the 420 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:44,959 Speaker 1: street that she sharaculously right, we're not hit as the 421 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:47,359 Speaker 1: twenty five year old. I think it was guy was 422 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 1: being shot. The great fallacy of all of this, and 423 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:54,160 Speaker 1: I think anybody with a functional brain would acknowledge this 424 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:59,160 Speaker 1: if you really sat down with them. Every single crime 425 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:03,120 Speaker 1: that has committed with a gun has been prohibited by 426 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:07,399 Speaker 1: law ten or fifteen different ways. By the time the 427 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:11,360 Speaker 1: crime is occurring right The idea that you can legislate 428 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 1: in some way more safety is I think one of 429 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:18,920 Speaker 1: the great fallacies that is out there right now. And 430 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:22,439 Speaker 1: this also then brings us to why are they doing this? 431 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:26,119 Speaker 1: Why would Joe Biden yesterday take time out think of 432 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 1: what we still? We got an economy that should be 433 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 1: off like a rocket ship, post post pandemic, which I 434 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 1: think we could all say there's still COVID, yes, but 435 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:37,160 Speaker 1: we are really post pandemic now in this country, and 436 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 1: we should have a booming economy. But instead we have 437 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,919 Speaker 1: crises like the deeply insecure, really open border and a 438 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,160 Speaker 1: huge spike in violence, which Clay and I've been talking 439 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 1: about a lot all week. And what do they want 440 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 1: to focus on guns? Why? Because it excites the left 441 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:58,399 Speaker 1: wing base, the journos parade ignorance about firearms. They think 442 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,680 Speaker 1: of them is as ikey, this is how you got 443 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: you remember a few years ago USA today, USA today 444 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 1: had the attachments, the scary attachments on ar rail systems, 445 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 1: and they had the famous infamous now chainsaw bayonet. Do 446 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 1: you ever the chainsaw bayonet photo which every gun guy 447 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 1: I know and Gal was like, this is the most 448 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 1: amazing there was a run on Chainsaw bayonets on the 449 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 1: internet now because it became a thing, you know, people 450 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: wanted to get because that's how absurd the journals are 451 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 1: when they talk about these issues. But Clay, the reason 452 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:31,200 Speaker 1: that you had this speech yesterday, I think it's very 453 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 1: clear is they need a narrative other than defund the police. 454 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:38,400 Speaker 1: Is the problem they have. They now know they can't 455 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 1: hide from us anymore. So it's let's make guns the 456 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 1: problem that keeps our base happy and allows us to 457 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 1: stick a thumb in the eye of every Republican in 458 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,399 Speaker 1: the country by saying, Okay, you don't like all this crime, 459 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 1: We're coming after your lawfully owned firearms. It's a clear 460 00:23:53,840 --> 00:24:02,120 Speaker 1: bait and switch, and it's devious in its profoundly dishonor perspective, because, 461 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,880 Speaker 1: as we talked about on the show earlier this week, 462 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 1: the Ferguson effect is a real thing. Buck. In the 463 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:12,080 Speaker 1: wake of the Ferguson protest, we saw murder rates in 464 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 1: cities that were the most active skyrocket, and then we 465 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:19,159 Speaker 1: finally kind of got back to some form of normalcy, 466 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:23,360 Speaker 1: and then what happened another election year. It's amazing. It's 467 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 1: probably just a total coincidence. Right, every four years, Black 468 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:32,800 Speaker 1: Lives Matter surges up, people protests, the police are awful, 469 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,120 Speaker 1: and then we dial it back and you know what's 470 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 1: gonna happen again. Twenty twenty four, There's gonna be another 471 00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 1: viral incident and this thing is going to cycle back up. 472 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:44,600 Speaker 1: And the people who end up being the victims here 473 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:50,120 Speaker 1: really in this maniacal pursuit of power are This is real? Buck, 474 00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 1: This is real. This is what gives me so fired up. 475 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 1: There are thousands of people that would otherwise be alive 476 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:03,200 Speaker 1: right now, but four the defund the Police movement. If 477 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 1: police had been allowed to do their jobs, Buck all 478 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:11,960 Speaker 1: over this country and protect everyone black, white, Asian, Hispanic. 479 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 1: These are the numbers that are out there. Atlanta homicides 480 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:21,000 Speaker 1: this year up fifty eight percent, Portland buck five hundred 481 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 1: and thirty three percent. Increase in murders Philadelphia thirty seven percent, 482 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,919 Speaker 1: Los Angeles twenty two percent. New York City, where they 483 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:33,120 Speaker 1: just had the mayoral election, up thirteen percent. These are 484 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 1: tangible wives that are being ripped away, and no one 485 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:43,119 Speaker 1: cares if defund the police was in any way a 486 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:46,160 Speaker 1: good idea, if this made any sense, don't you think 487 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 1: that there would be at least some people from within 488 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:53,120 Speaker 1: the law enforcement community retired let's say, who don't who 489 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 1: don't have to draw a paycheck anymore, who would come 490 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 1: out and say, you know what, we really do need 491 00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:00,640 Speaker 1: to do something here. You never see any one, whether 492 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 1: they were in the force, in law enforcement or not, 493 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 1: come out who knows anything about the issue of criminal 494 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 1: justice statistics, any of the metrics you could use to 495 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,960 Speaker 1: gauge whether this works or not. No one ever comes 496 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,400 Speaker 1: out and says, yeah, you know what, this is really 497 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 1: going to help us. In fact, what you see and 498 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:22,760 Speaker 1: the Democrats don't want this to take root in people's 499 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:26,399 Speaker 1: minds is at some level the activists left. I really 500 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 1: believe this. The activist left thinks exactly what you're talking about, 501 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 1: which is the enormous increase in homicides, in shootings overall. 502 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:38,640 Speaker 1: And remember, even if someone doesn't die, people are getting wounded. 503 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 1: Having a shooting on your block is bad for neighborhood morale. 504 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,439 Speaker 1: It makes people terrified, it makes real estate value go 505 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 1: down over time. These kinds of things have secondary order effects. 506 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:53,120 Speaker 1: But as we continue to look at this, they view 507 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 1: this as a price that we have to pay, both 508 00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:59,920 Speaker 1: because clay of the sins of the past and all 509 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 1: so as part of our rethinking and essentially revolution in 510 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,199 Speaker 1: law enforcement in this country, the rethinking of police that 511 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 1: we've been talking about is going to result in something 512 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,640 Speaker 1: like this, a big surgeon crime. They won't say it openly, 513 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,320 Speaker 1: but I've heard people talking about this. When the cameras 514 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,879 Speaker 1: aren't around. To make an omelet, you gotta break a 515 00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,919 Speaker 1: few eggs. That's the attitude the end. One of my 516 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:27,360 Speaker 1: big theories buck is that the Internet is a blame factory. 517 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 1: As soon as anything happens, people immediately rush to figure 518 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 1: out who's to blame. And it can be things that 519 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 1: aren't that serious. Remember Harambe when the kid ended up 520 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 1: in at Cincinnati Zoo ended up in there with the gorilla. 521 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:44,400 Speaker 1: Immediately everybody's like, Okay, who's to blame, the mom, the dad, 522 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:49,199 Speaker 1: whatever the situation is. The Internet assesses blame. That's fine 523 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:52,719 Speaker 1: as long as the blame is in some way connected 524 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 1: to data and rational policy analysis. The data is transparent, clear, 525 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 1: and there is no argument to the contrary. The reason 526 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:05,440 Speaker 1: why the murder rate is skyrocketing is because of defund 527 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:08,280 Speaker 1: the police and the Black Lives Matter movement that is 528 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 1: one hundred percent incontrovertibly the reason why this crime rate 529 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 1: is increasing. Well, Clay, I just want to tell you 530 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,959 Speaker 1: Jen Saki disagrees, so we're gonna have to you know, 531 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 1: Saki bomb is gonna go off this as in a 532 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:25,399 Speaker 1: few minutes. Suriating to me though, because the data is 533 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:28,480 Speaker 1: so transparent. Look at it. It tells the story. We 534 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 1: don't even need to argue about it. Let's line up 535 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 1: and knock down some of the diversions and lies from 536 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:36,639 Speaker 1: Democrats around defund as soon as we come back, and 537 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:38,320 Speaker 1: any folks who want to join us in that call 538 00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 1: in eight hundred two eight two two eight eight two. 539 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:45,240 Speaker 1: Also klanbuck dot com, follow us on Twitter, on Facebook, 540 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 1: if you're on any social media platform, you're not on TikTok, 541 00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 1: are you by any chance? You know what? No, I'm 542 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 1: gonna write it. I'm afraid of having to join too 543 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 1: many of these social media players, and the Chinese surveillance 544 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 1: operation is not maybe a little bit that. Also, I'm 545 00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 1: too old. I got my kids are gonna be on TikTok. 546 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 1: I tried to you're at snapchat once and I was like, 547 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 1: this is too much for me. I felt like a 548 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 1: guy who couldn't get the VCR to record anyway. We'll 549 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 1: come back to this in just a moment. But like you, 550 00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:09,760 Speaker 1: I really pay close attention to our nation's economy and 551 00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 1: how it affects all of us. And you know inflation 552 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 1: is surging, that's clear. Plus, you have trillions of dollars 553 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 1: of overspending in the last twelve months from the federal government, 554 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:21,600 Speaker 1: with trillions more spending of spending coming down the pike, 555 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 1: and they want to do this under the infrastructure headline. Right. 556 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 1: Guess what. Eventually math matters, my friends. That's why I 557 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 1: want you to have real gold and silver delivered securely 558 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 1: and privately to your home as a hedge against the 559 00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 1: madness of the left.

Appreciate 575 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 1: all of you hanging out with us. We're unpacking. What 576 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:37,680 Speaker 1: I would say is the Democrats attempt to pivot away 577 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 1: from defund the police. Pivot might be too aggressive, too 578 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 1: lenient of a phrase, run as fast as they can 579 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:48,360 Speaker 1: pell mell in the opposite direction. And they're also trying 580 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:51,280 Speaker 1: to obfu skate to confuse people as to why the 581 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 1: murder rate and violent rate of crime is skyrocking across 582 00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 1: the country, including in there last night on CNN. No 583 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:01,440 Speaker 1: big surprise here, Susan Rice to the White House Domestic 584 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:05,320 Speaker 1: Policy Adviser. She wanted to make it clear that Joe Biden, 585 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:09,280 Speaker 1: he's not opposed to police at all. President Biden's approach 586 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 1: is not to defund the police. He's been very explicit 587 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:17,240 Speaker 1: in opposing that he wants to invest in our communities 588 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 1: and in safety. That includes investing in public safety and 589 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 1: giving police and police forces the resources they need. But 590 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 1: it's much broader than that, because you can't just deal 591 00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 1: with this problem through law enforcement. You need to deal 592 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 1: with its root causes. Clay, these are word games. You'll 593 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:38,560 Speaker 1: notice investing in communities, investing in public safety won't say 594 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 1: investing in police because that would basically be saying defund 595 00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 1: bad idea, refund good idea. And the Democrats can allow 596 00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:51,240 Speaker 1: that narrative to take hold because then they would start 597 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:53,480 Speaker 1: to see remember when I was talking about the activist 598 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:57,240 Speaker 1: class thinking that this is a necessary period of transition 599 00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 1: with the escalations and violence and cities across the country. 600 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:03,280 Speaker 1: That's ten to twenty percent of the Democrat Party that 601 00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 1: feels like abolished police is the real goal. Yeah, we 602 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 1: actually they talk about this. But when you look at 603 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 1: the top of the Democrat power apparatus, Joe Biden himself 604 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 1: and Susan Rice, who obviously was a big deal in 605 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 1: the Obama administration too, these are people who recognize that 606 00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:25,040 Speaker 1: the American people are absolutely not with this defund police 607 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 1: notion in real numbers, especially as they see what the 608 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:32,479 Speaker 1: data that you've been talking about shows for what this 609 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 1: means for public safety. So it is funny that they're 610 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:36,880 Speaker 1: trying to walk away from this. Now, why won't they 611 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 1: condemn it? Though, Clay, if we had real journalists in 612 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:41,960 Speaker 1: this country, every Biden official will be like, so, do 613 00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 1: you condemn defund the police? Do you agree? No questions 614 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:48,400 Speaker 1: about it? Now, No, let's talk about guns. Let's talk 615 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 1: about banning chainsaw bayonets and five hundred round Bazuoka machines 616 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 1: and whatever other stuff that they talk about because they 617 00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 1: don't know anything about guns. What I would say, Buck, 618 00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 1: is there's an easy analogy to draw here. Think about 619 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:03,920 Speaker 1: how often Republicans have been quizzed about Liz Cheney and 620 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:08,719 Speaker 1: what they believe about her political beliefs. How many times 621 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 1: have you heard Joe Biden really pressed on, hey, do 622 00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 1: you agree with AOC and the squads relentless attack upon 623 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:23,040 Speaker 1: the idea of police. That's a real issue that has 624 00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 1: a tangible cost in lives lost that almost no one 625 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:30,280 Speaker 1: is talking about. And keep in mind, we've played Susan Rice, 626 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:34,720 Speaker 1: We've played Joe Biden. The number of different excuses for 627 00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:40,320 Speaker 1: the rise in violent crime and murder, guns, COVID lockdowns, 628 00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:43,240 Speaker 1: which is I write all of these different, we don't 629 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 1: and then now Susan Rice, oh, we don't even agree 630 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 1: with defund the police from the get go. All of 631 00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 1: these are excuses for what the root causes here, which 632 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:56,480 Speaker 1: is the murder rate of skyrocketing on a level buck 633 00:33:57,240 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 1: that a huge percentage of our listeners have never seen 634 00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:03,800 Speaker 1: happen in their lives. If you are forty or younger, 635 00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 1: this is the biggest and most sustained crime increase of 636 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:12,560 Speaker 1: your life. The lies that they told about the reason 637 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:16,000 Speaker 1: for the rise weren't even sensible. It didn't even it 638 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:18,160 Speaker 1: didn't even add up when they started to look at 639 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:21,439 Speaker 1: this and say that coming COVID lockdowns, people out less, 640 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:24,320 Speaker 1: doing less around each other less, and every other country 641 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,560 Speaker 1: that had lockdowns, mind you saw decreases in violent crime, 642 00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:30,759 Speaker 1: which makes sense because you have people interacting in general less. 643 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,200 Speaker 1: The lies were obvious in the beginning, but people went 644 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:34,400 Speaker 1: along with it. I do want to get in a 645 00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 1: couple of our callers here, so then we've got a 646 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,240 Speaker 1: lot of thoughts on this one two two eight hundred 647 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:43,439 Speaker 1: two eight two eight eight two matt In Ohio. You're 648 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:46,960 Speaker 1: on the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton show. Hey, good afternoon. 649 00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:50,799 Speaker 1: He congratul on a show. I really enjoyed it so far. 650 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:55,279 Speaker 1: But the point I was making was this to your screeners, 651 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,840 Speaker 1: that what's going on right now in the country reminds 652 00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 1: me of the post Vietnam I was just kind of 653 00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 1: removed from it a few years, not being drafted. When 654 00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:07,560 Speaker 1: the Vets came home, how they were treated, it's kind 655 00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 1: of like the police forces being treated now. It was 656 00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:15,160 Speaker 1: a great analogy. That's a great analogy map, you know. 657 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:17,800 Speaker 1: And in the schools, you know, I was at that 658 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:20,480 Speaker 1: era where I was going finishing high school and going 659 00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:24,120 Speaker 1: into college, and there was never a view from the right. 660 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:28,279 Speaker 1: It was always from the socialist type of you. It 661 00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:31,120 Speaker 1: just seems like now that's where we are. It's all 662 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:34,280 Speaker 1: driven from the left, and it's the police are horrible guys, 663 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 1: when really they were just kind of like the Vets. 664 00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:38,879 Speaker 1: They were just doing their jobs that they were set 665 00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 1: out to do. Matt, thank you so much. You know, 666 00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:43,440 Speaker 1: I used to work with law enforcement, and I can 667 00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:46,120 Speaker 1: I got law enforcement in my family, A career patrol 668 00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:49,279 Speaker 1: officer actually in my family, and some of some of 669 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 1: my favorite people are cops, and it really every single 670 00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:54,160 Speaker 1: one of them that I talked to, they feel the 671 00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:56,319 Speaker 1: way you do about how we're just not showing as 672 00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:58,440 Speaker 1: a nation right now. There's a lack of respect for 673 00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 1: those who are holding a line for law and order. 674 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:05,280 Speaker 1: Jason in Charleston, South Carolina. A wonderful place, by the way, Jason, 675 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:09,600 Speaker 1: great to have you, hey, Clay and Buck, thanks for 676 00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:11,720 Speaker 1: having me on. You know, I just wanted to refer 677 00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:14,920 Speaker 1: back to President Biden's speech on guns. It's pretty obvious 678 00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 1: to all of us that he really doesn't have an 679 00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:19,480 Speaker 1: understanding of the Second Amendment arts purposes. But I find 680 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:21,920 Speaker 1: it funny that the part that he thinks is pretty obvious, 681 00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:23,960 Speaker 1: or that he thinks is pretty safe to say something like, 682 00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:26,440 Speaker 1: you know, it was never intended for people to have 683 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:30,359 Speaker 1: cannons when the Second Amendment was originally drafted. Well, as 684 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:32,960 Speaker 1: a matter of fact, it was, and private citizens did, 685 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,400 Speaker 1: and under Article one that Congress has the power to 686 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:40,120 Speaker 1: grant letters of mark which end out private citizens to 687 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:44,239 Speaker 1: contribute to war efforts if necessary using this armament day 688 00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:47,480 Speaker 1: a mass. So really the main point that I think 689 00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:50,480 Speaker 1: he misses in a lot of Second Amendment critics miss 690 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,520 Speaker 1: is that the Second Amendment is part of our national defense, 691 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 1: and I think that's really important to to highlight Jason 692 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:59,480 Speaker 1: excellent excellent analysis and historical accuracy. Clay, isn't it nice? 693 00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:02,200 Speaker 1: I tell you the callers are stepping up their game. 694 00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:04,879 Speaker 1: I'm pretty impressed as the week is going on, when 695 00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:06,880 Speaker 1: we're talking about guns with this audience, my friend, we 696 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:09,239 Speaker 1: can find somebody that'll tell us how to fix the 697 00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:11,919 Speaker 1: two forty gulf on a black Hawk in about thirty 698 00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:13,880 Speaker 1: seconds if we need to. We're gonna talk to you 699 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:17,120 Speaker 1: about a big law license suspension involves one of your 700 00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:19,560 Speaker 1: favorite people from a Trump administration that is coming up. 701 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:23,319 Speaker 1: You're listening to Clay Travis and Buck Sexton on the 702 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:24,840 Speaker 1: EIB Network
