1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,520
Speaker 1: Clay. Have you heard of the Rio Reset? Sounds like

2
00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:04,560
Speaker 1: a trendy new workout, Buck, it.

3
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:07,160
Speaker 2: Does, but it's actually a big summit going on in Brazil.

4
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:10,520
Speaker 2: The formal name is BRICKS, which stands for Brazil, Russia, India,

5
00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:13,960
Speaker 2: China and South Africa. But they've just added five new members.

6
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:17,079
Speaker 3: Smart move to stick with Bricks. We know what happens

7
00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:19,520
Speaker 3: when acronyms don't end. They confuse everyone.

8
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:22,320
Speaker 2: Well, that's an understatement. Bricks is a group of emerging

9
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:25,960
Speaker 2: economies hoping to increase their sway in the global financial order.

10
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:28,480
Speaker 3: Now that sounds like the plot line of a movie.

11
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:29,360
Speaker 3: I'm listening.

12
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 2: Philip Patrick is our Bruce Wayne. He's a precious metal

13
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:36,200
Speaker 2: specialist and a spokesman for the Birch Gold Group. He's

14
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:38,880
Speaker 2: on the ground in Rio getting the whole low down

15
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 2: on what's going on there.

16
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 1: Can he give us some inside intel?

17
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 2: Absolutely, he's been there since day one. In fact, a

18
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 2: major theme at the summit is how Bricks Nations aim

19
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 2: to reduce reliance on the US dollar in global trade.

20
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,640
Speaker 3: Yikes, that doesn't sound good. We got to get Philip

21
00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:54,320
Speaker 3: on the line.

22
00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,880
Speaker 2: Stat already did and he left the Clay and Buck

23
00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 2: audience this message.

24
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:03,400
Speaker 4: The world is moving on from the dollar quietly but steadily.

25
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:07,960
Speaker 4: These nations are making real progress towards reshaping global trade,

26
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,959
Speaker 4: and the US dollar is no longer the centerpiece. That

27
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 4: shift doesn't happen overnight, but make no mistake, it's already begun.

28
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 2: Thank you, Philip. Protect the value of your savings account

29
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:21,920

38
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 3: Ooh, came back in Clay Travis buck Sexton show. Congrats

39
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 3: as you just heard buck Sexton successfully knowing how many

40
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 3: points of safety is worked, unlike two thirds of the

41
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 3: Jeopardy contestants. You're to have a little bit of fun here,

42
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:03,280
Speaker 3: and this is all real, But I want to how

43
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 3: funny is that Wolf Blitzer clip?

44
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: I mean that he would.

45
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,640
Speaker 3: I mean, for everybody out there watching, he is held

46
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 3: up as one of the brainiacts of CNN, right, wouldn't

47
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 3: you say? That's probably fair to say that wolf Blitzer

48
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 3: is seen as one of the smarter guys on the

49
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 3: air at CNN.

50
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 1: I think that's probably fair.

51
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 5: Well.

52
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's as a result of his

53
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 2: Jeopardy appearance, but people have been suggesting that he's like

54
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:31,680
Speaker 2: the confused fool for a while now, okay, so, but

55
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:34,080
Speaker 2: I don't know, to be fair, he's probably I mean,

56
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 2: he's got to be over seventy now, right, like that

57
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 2: clip was from two thousand and nine. I will say,

58
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 2: I will say I have heard from people within the

59
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 2: CNN world for a long time.

60
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 1: He's actually a pretty pretty I've heard him super nice guy. Yeah,

61
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 1: he's a nice guy.

62
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 2: So I will give him a polo credit on he's

63
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 2: apparently a good dude, and we're having a little bit

64
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 2: of fun at his expense. But he's paid millions of

65
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:54,960
Speaker 2: dollars and he's had a good run and so you know,

66
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 2: but he is apparently fair unlike unlike most of the

67
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,359
Speaker 2: CNN anchors. And I could go through chapter and verse

68
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 2: he's apparently a nice guy.

69
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,680
Speaker 3: To be fair, if I went on Celebrity Jeopardy and

70
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 3: I lost five thousand dollars, it would go insanely megaviral,

71
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 3: and I would I mean, I would have to own it, right,

72
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 3: but all the clips of me missing the questions and

73
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 3: everything else.

74
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 1: It would Actually it.

75
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 3: Would probably be better for me to go and lose

76
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,080
Speaker 3: a ton of money than to win a ton of money,

77
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,960
Speaker 3: because if I won tons of money, nobody would share it.

78
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 3: They would be like, oh whatever, Klay Travis, still stupid

79
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 3: meani head more on, if I lost like five thousand dollars,

80
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 3: everybody that hates me would share it. So it probably

81
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 3: would go more viral for a collapse than actually being successful. Okay,

82
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 3: I tweeted this last night. I got a sense that

83
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 3: my take this is all real. I got a sense

84
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 3: that my take on Superman the New movie had gone

85
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 3: megaviral because yesterday I woke up and I had an

86
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 3: email from a japan news agency asking if they could

87
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 3: interview me for my take on the New Superman movie.

88
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 2: So when you see the Suntori commercials with Klay Travis

89
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 2: in them or supporto, you will know that this is

90
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:16,960
Speaker 2: that Clay's big in Japan. Let's just say it, Clay

91
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:18,359
Speaker 2: is big in Japan.

92
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 3: In my entire career of telling, tons of sharing, tons

93
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 3: of opinions on everything under the sun, there has never

94
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 3: been any request for me to be interviewed by any

95
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:33,239
Speaker 3: Japanese news agency.

96
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 2: Well, well, cook, I think the one part we have

97
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:39,720
Speaker 2: to let everybody know, though, is that the director James Gunn.

98
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:41,919
Speaker 1: I used to be.

99
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 2: I will say, if we were talking like late nineties,

100
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:49,159
Speaker 2: early two thousands movies, I was absolutely dialed in. I

101
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 2: have my favorite directors, my favorite actors, you know, excited

102
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 2: about I don't even know who's I don't know who's

103
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 2: been directing movies for the last ten years.

104
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 1: I basically have no idea.

105
00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,839
Speaker 2: I don't pay attention because I think most movies absolutely stink,

106
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 2: almost all of them, absolutely think. Now he said something though,

107
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,920
Speaker 2: here's the quote. Here's the James Gunn quote. So this

108
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 2: is where it all started.

109
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:12,920
Speaker 3: On a Variety magazine, which is like a Hollywood celebrity magazine,

110
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:18,599
Speaker 3: shared a story and said, James Gunn says Superman is

111
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 3: about an immigrant that came from other places. How we've

112
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:28,320
Speaker 3: lost the value of basic human kindness. Yes, it's about politics.

113
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 3: That was James Gunn's take. He is the director of

114
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,600
Speaker 3: the new Superman movie that is opening. I think it

115
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 3: maybe already are out or opening today or whatever else,

116
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 3: I tweeted three days ago, And this is true. I'm

117
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:44,479
Speaker 3: gonna skip seeing Superman. The director is a moron to

118
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 3: say this publicly the week before release. America is desperate

119
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 3: for a political entertainment. Hollywood's unable to deliver it. And

120
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 3: then I continued, I said, I made a fun movie.

121
00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 3: I hope every one of all backgrounds and enjoys. Is

122
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 3: it that hard to say this when you've been given

123
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 3: hundreds of millions of dollars of studio money to make

124
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,480
Speaker 3: a summer blockbuster. It feels like Tom Cruise is the

125
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,840
Speaker 3: only Hollywood superstar who still gets this. That's what I

126
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,360
Speaker 3: don't even think of all my takes, like I think

127
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,720
Speaker 3: that is like one of the most tepid, non hot take,

128
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 3: non crazy takes. It has evidently gone megaviral, and the

129
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:30,159
Speaker 3: Superman community of fans is furious at me and this

130
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,480
Speaker 3: buck just in the last I don't know little bit.

131
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:39,280
Speaker 3: On social media, I got the following messages sent to

132
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 3: me on Instagram from Superman fans. These are people that

133
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,120
Speaker 3: are furious at me. This is a representative sample. I

134
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 3: am deluged in angry Superman fan messages. Here is one

135
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 3: hey word that you can't say on the radio. I

136
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:00,720
Speaker 3: just want to let you know super Man has been

137
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:04,679
Speaker 3: an immigrant since he was created, and that calling stuff

138
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 3: woke means you can't find a good reason to complain.

139
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 3: You're being a bitch, You're an idiot, wrong, You're being used,

140
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:20,679
Speaker 3: You piece of blank. Go kill yourself. James Gunn isn't

141
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 3: the moron you are. Your family will burn for this? WHOA,

142
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 3: Your family will burn for this. I GE's my Superman movie.

143
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 3: Take Okay, it's got a good idea to go mega political.

144
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 1: This is crazy town. Can I give you.

145
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,559
Speaker 2: I'm gonna give you a few things here. First of all,

146
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,760
Speaker 2: Superman is not an immigrant. All right, if we're gonna

147
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 2: play this conversation out a little bit, let's do it. Okay,

148
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 2: Superman is an alien. He is not a human being

149
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:52,560
Speaker 2: who is subject to another jurisdiction on this planet and

150
00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 2: has citizenship elsewhere. He is from another planet. Now, that

151
00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,400
Speaker 2: to me is actually a good case, especially when home

152
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 2: planet has been destroyed, as Superman' has if I remember

153
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 2: my comic book Lore, Superman, if anything, would be an

154
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:12,239
Speaker 2: asylum seeker. Unlike all of the people who are showing

155
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 2: up in America pretending that their planet was blown up,

156
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 2: so to speak, pretending they can't go back to their

157
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 2: home country, they are just fraudsters. So Superman is an alien,

158
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 2: not an illegal alien, but an actual alien from another planet.

159
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:32,320
Speaker 2: Does not have a jurisdiction on planet Earth that he

160
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:36,559
Speaker 2: should be in other than America. And I think under

161
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 2: any reasonable view of asylum law, his home planet is gone,

162
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 2: so I don't think he can go back. So I

163
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 2: think that you could say he's a credible assyle. Okay,

164
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,079
Speaker 2: you that is amazing.

165
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:58,680
Speaker 3: You are gonna be nerding out because my wife is

166
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 3: a super Zuo movie junkie, super nerd all the boys

167
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 3: go to all the movies and everything else. She actually

168
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 3: was upset that all the Super Superman people are mad

169
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,720
Speaker 3: at me, and she sent me this because you're gonna

170
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:15,200
Speaker 3: build on this.

171
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:16,560
Speaker 1: Buck. She's also a lawyer.

172
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 3: She said they're totally wrong, and she said, what you

173
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:24,320
Speaker 3: just said, Buck, Superman is actually a true asylum seeker.

174
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:29,080
Speaker 3: His planet was destroyed, all his culture and people are destroyed,

175
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 3: His first landing is on American soil in Kansas. This

176
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 3: is Laura Travis Lawyer. He's orphaned as his parents die,

177
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 3: so he's legally adopted by the Kents, who are American citizens,

178
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,840
Speaker 3: thus giving him American citizenship even if not for one

179
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:49,120
Speaker 3: and two. He has unique talents of great use to

180
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:52,320
Speaker 3: the US that would be impossible to find after a

181
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 3: thorough search for other candidates, thus qualifying him for eb

182
00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 3: DASH one, a controversially visa and legal channel to full citizenship.

183
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,560
Speaker 1: On top of all this, he ends up being one.

184
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:08,080
Speaker 3: Of the most productive and useful members of society, choosing

185
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,599
Speaker 3: to hold two full time jobs as both a journalist

186
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,439
Speaker 3: and a crime fighting superhero.

187
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:18,840
Speaker 2: Now this is also absolutely, absolutely spot on crew.

188
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:20,319
Speaker 1: I didn't know that that was I didn't know the

189
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 1: Laura had written any of that. It's absolutely correct.

190
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:24,600
Speaker 2: So the people that are the director of this movie

191
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 2: saying he's just like an immigrant, no jackass, that's not

192
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 2: even that's not even vaguely correct.

193
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,680
Speaker 3: And this also builds on something that I that I

194
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 3: was getting at when this went megaviral. I would believe

195
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 3: if you gave me buck, if if you and I,

196
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 3: if I left this show and I suddenly became a

197
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:47,840
Speaker 3: Hollywood movie director. If you gave me hundreds of millions

198
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 3: of dollars to make a movie, it might well end

199
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:53,080
Speaker 3: in utter disaster. Remember Fox had to sell off the

200
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 3: lot at the Pico and Motor part of it where

201
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 3: the Westfield Mall is now for those of you out

202
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 3: in LA because they lost so much money on Cleopatra

203
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 3: with Elizabeth Taylor back in the day for the movie nerds.

204
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 1: So it may well.

205
00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 3: End then unmitigated disaster in the company might lose tons

206
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 3: of money.

207
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 1: But it wouldn't.

208
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:15,480
Speaker 3: Be because I said to half the country, hey, I'm

209
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,719
Speaker 3: trying to make an intensely political movie. I would go

210
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 3: full Michael Jordan Republicans by sneakers too.

211
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:23,520
Speaker 1: I don't think it would have been smart of.

212
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:28,240
Speaker 3: James Gunn to say, Hey, I think it's super timely

213
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 3: that Superman would come out right now, because Donald Trump

214
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 3: is a super president and he's super man like in

215
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 3: the way that he responded to the assassination attempt. And

216
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,079
Speaker 3: I think that if you hate Trump, you shouldn't come

217
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,319
Speaker 3: see this movie. Well, that wouldn't be smart, right, I

218
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:48,559
Speaker 3: actually would agree with that take, but it wouldn't be

219
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 3: smart if you're trying to appeal to the whole swath

220
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 3: of America. And I mean, look, we got a lot

221
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:55,839
Speaker 3: of people who listen in LA and we've talked about

222
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 3: this before. When is Hollywood going to recognize that the

223
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 3: reason why Tom Cruise is the last Superstar is because

224
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:08,960
Speaker 3: he just wants to make a political popcorn movies that

225
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 3: everybody can sit and watch that aren't trying to indoctrinate

226
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 3: you in any way and are just about entertaining you

227
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:21,680
Speaker 3: for a great summer movie, right. I just I don't

228
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:25,360
Speaker 3: understand why these people can't get it through their heads

229
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 3: that a political entertainment that everybody can watch it should

230
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:30,559
Speaker 3: be the goal.

231
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,960
Speaker 2: No, because the goal these are communists. Their goal is

232
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,120
Speaker 2: the indoctrination they view that they've reached a point like

233
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 2: James Gunn is already very rich, already has all the

234
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:43,440
Speaker 2: connections he needs. It is more important to him to

235
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 2: make a movie that he can virtue signal to his

236
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:52,560
Speaker 2: lib friends in Hollywood about than to make a movie

237
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 2: that makes a ton of money at this point, like

238
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 2: if he has to choose between those two things otherwise,

239
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 2: how do you explain things like snow White, which was

240
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:03,520
Speaker 2: an absolute disaster. Hundreds of millions lost, and we knew

241
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 2: it was gonna lose money the whole time. We're not

242
00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:08,720
Speaker 2: making that movie. But it's because they're they're so ideologically

243
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,880
Speaker 2: committed that it is not profit motive first, that's what

244
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 2: they used to say.

245
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:14,720
Speaker 1: I might add. Then you say, oh, it's we're just

246
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:16,319
Speaker 1: doing what makes money. That's not true.

247
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:21,439
Speaker 2: They care more about the mission of indoctrination than they

248
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 2: do making money with these films. And you see it

249
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 2: over and over again because every time we say this

250
00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 2: is going to be a disaster, there's going to be

251
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:28,440
Speaker 2: a bomb.

252
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 1: Pretty much.

253
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:33,800
Speaker 2: Is the only exception of that is the Barbie movie, which.

254
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:36,640
Speaker 1: Was so bad. Was so bad. I've still never seen it.

255
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 2: I watched I couldn't get through it. I tried, I

256
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:43,320
Speaker 2: watched some of it. I'm like, this is just trash, trash, And.

257
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,240
Speaker 3: Is that just it was successful because they were just

258
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 3: they were marketing it was a diary to women and

259
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,719
Speaker 3: it's like girl it was a whole girl power thing.

260
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 1: Like oh like Barbie and the nostalgia and everything else.

261
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:57,360
Speaker 2: It is an absolutely garbage movie, absolutely garbage movie. And

262
00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,160
Speaker 2: I you know, just like people Clay I use to

263
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,960
Speaker 2: say that Hamilton was garbage when people were waiting in

264
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 2: line for like three days for tickets. Okay, I was like, guys,

265
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 2: I just know it's garbage, and it is garbage. And

266
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 2: now more and more people agree with me because it's

267
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:14,920
Speaker 2: just what it is, Barbie. Eventually everyone's gonna realize nonsense.

268
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 2: And don't get me started on Avatar. Those of you

269
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 2: who like Avatar.

270
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:23,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, but Avatar is not to me as aggressively political.

271
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 1: I know, James.

272
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:27,400
Speaker 2: Campbell, fern Gully with some laser guns or whatever. It's preposterous.

273
00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:29,680
Speaker 1: It made it made a lot I think that there.

274
00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:30,840
Speaker 2: It didn't make a lot of It didn't make a

275
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:32,880
Speaker 2: lot of but that was because the technology. It wasn't

276
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 2: because of the storyline. It was because of the three

277
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 2: D and all that stuff.

278
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:40,160
Speaker 3: I'm just telling you, somebody out there in Hollywood is

279
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 3: gonna get smart enough to just say, I'm not hiring

280
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 3: any of these woke bs moron people. We're just gonna like,

281
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 3: whoever Tom Cruise wants to work with, We're gonna double triple,

282
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 3: quadruple down with him. All he cares about is making

283
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:58,480
Speaker 3: movies that are gonna be super entertaining, and that's what

284
00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 3: we're gonna focus on and you're gonna mint money. You

285
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 3: are gonna make money hand over fist because I just

286
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:07,480
Speaker 3: see stuff like this all the time and it just

287
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 3: makes me throw my hands up because I wanted to

288
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,880
Speaker 3: go see Superman. I mean, I'm a you know, Middle

289
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 3: America guy, like I like to go sit in the

290
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 3: movies and have popcorn. I still like going to the

291
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 3: movie theater. I want to go see the new Jurassic Park,

292
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 3: even though I'm sure it's like, oh total track, Michael

293
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 3: Crichton is rolling over in his grave, good Heaven. I

294
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:31,960
Speaker 3: enjoy seeing dinosaurs on the movie screen. I like seeing

295
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 3: fighter jets blow things up. I mean, I am the

296
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:40,480
Speaker 3: average American consumer. Why would you alienate anybody from Superman?

297
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 3: You could easily say Superman is an aspirational goal that

298
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:50,160
Speaker 3: is about everyone fulfilling the best possible abilities of their

299
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 3: own innate gifts. Like it's so easy to sell this movie.

300
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:59,239
Speaker 3: Just don't tell me that it's political and about immigration.

301
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:03,040
Speaker 3: By the way, when most people are opposed right now

302
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 3: to the immigration policies, not even fifty to fifty we

303
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 3: talked about this, It's like sixty five thirty five. The

304
00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 3: guys a moron anyway, I thought you guys would enjoy it.

305
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 3: I do think it's important culturally. But there's people out

306
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 3: there that are furious at me for saying, hey, you know,

307
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 3: maybe Superman should just kind of appeal to everybody and

308
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 3: not be some sort of woke version of Hollywood fantasy.

309
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 3: And when you say that, the little fanboys come running

310
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 3: and tell me my family should burn, My family should

311
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 3: burn for my Superman take of all things. Look Amazon

333
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 3: Appreciate all of you hanging out with us as we

334
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:53,440
Speaker 3: are rolling through the Thursday edition of the program. Join

335
00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:57,880
Speaker 3: now by Congressman Jim Jordan, State of Ohio. So many

336
00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:01,920
Speaker 3: different things going on right now on Capitol Hill. Let's

337
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 3: start here. Big beautiful bill gets passed. Was it more

338
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 3: dramatic than you expected? Was it about what you expected

339
00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 3: what happens now?

340
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 5: No, it was about what I expect. I think the

341
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,320
Speaker 5: economy takes off. I mean, I've probably I don't know

342
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 5: how many interviews have done on this issue, but it's

343
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:21,520
Speaker 5: like I say all the time. You know it was

344
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:24,159
Speaker 5: a good bill of clay because the left hated it,

345
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:26,600
Speaker 5: and the left hated it because it actually empowered people,

346
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 5: empowered families, tax cuts for families, school choice, for families, resources,

347
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:33,679
Speaker 5: most resources devoted to border security in the history of

348
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:36,080
Speaker 5: our country to make sure our border stays secure. And

349
00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:39,639
Speaker 5: then the work requirements for able bodied adults to currently

350
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:42,159
Speaker 5: get your tax money, in the future, they're going to

351
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 5: have to work, which is a good thing for the economy.

352
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:46,760
Speaker 5: It's a good thing for taxpayers, but most importantly, I

353
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 5: think it's a good thing for those individuals.

354
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 2: One of the most important things that you think we're

355
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 2: going to see now changing in the economy, Congressman, since

356
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:57,440
Speaker 2: the bill has been passed. I mean, we talked about

357
00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:00,320
Speaker 2: tax cuts. That's great, more money in people's posts. It's

358
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,520
Speaker 2: more money for the private sector to let the business

359
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,639
Speaker 2: of the American people be business. But where do you

360
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:08,359
Speaker 2: think we're going to see some of this in a

361
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 2: real life, day to day way take root and be

362
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:14,200
Speaker 2: really helpful to the bottom line of the American people.

363
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it's I think it's just that fundamental point.

364
00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:20,000
Speaker 5: When you let families, when you let moms and dads

365
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 5: keep more of their money to spend on their goals

366
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,200
Speaker 5: and their dreams, good things happen. That's good for that family,

367
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 5: it's good for their community, it's good for their local school,

368
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,760
Speaker 5: their local business. It's just good for our economy. This

369
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:34,080
Speaker 5: was the largest tax cut in history, coupled with the

370
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,879
Speaker 5: largest investment in border security. Those were key items in

371
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,960
Speaker 5: last last balls campaign and why the American people, I

372
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,919
Speaker 5: think elected President Trump. So I think it's that basic.

373
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:46,080
Speaker 5: Now we need to growth because we got a huge

374
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:49,880
Speaker 5: deficit of running every single year, piling up this big Dad.

375
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:51,680
Speaker 5: We got to begin to deal with that. But step

376
00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:53,719
Speaker 5: one to deal with all that is to get your

377
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,399
Speaker 5: economy growing at a faster clip than, of course it

378
00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:58,480
Speaker 5: was under the Biden administration.

379
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 3: All Right, and I are die hard sports fans, Buck is,

380
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:05,479
Speaker 3: I would say, kind of coming along a little bit.

381
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:06,880
Speaker 1: He's starting to pepper a lot of sport.

382
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:12,399
Speaker 2: Before you ask your real question, Congressman Clay wasn't wasn't

383
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:14,879
Speaker 2: sure that I was going to know how many points

384
00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 2: you get for a safety in football? Can you believe

385
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:20,880
Speaker 2: the disrespect is sometimes I have to brook on this show.

386
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 3: We played a Jeopardy question for him where the two

387
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,480
Speaker 3: of the Jeopardy contestants got it wrong and Buck got

388
00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 3: it right to his credit, But I'll allow you to

389
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:31,120
Speaker 3: weigh in.

390
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:33,199
Speaker 5: Yeah, well no, I figured he would get it right.

391
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,520
Speaker 5: Everyone knows that's that's two points. But step I guess

392
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 5: a few people on a few people on Jeopardy. But yeah,

393
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 5: we love sports. I mean now, I gotta tell you, Clay,

394
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 5: I saw it for me. I'm not the greatest golfer,

395
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 5: but I shot an eighty one yesterday. So that's a

396
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:45,480
Speaker 5: good score for me.

397
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:46,440
Speaker 1: That's really good.

398
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:48,679
Speaker 5: And it's and it's even better when you beat your

399
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 5: brother and your two buddies, which we got a chance

400
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 5: to sneak out and play a little bit yesterday because

401
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 5: this this week we were back in DC. So I'll

402
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:57,720
Speaker 5: take that score because I don't normally shoot quite that low,

403
00:20:57,760 --> 00:20:58,480
Speaker 5: but I'll take.

404
00:20:58,280 --> 00:20:58,920
Speaker 6: That any day.

405
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:03,240
Speaker 3: All right, So let's dive into this mess because if

406
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:06,400
Speaker 3: you are a sports fan right now, the whole name,

407
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 3: image and likeness universe has been crazy.

408
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:11,439
Speaker 1: And for people out there who don't know.

409
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:14,119
Speaker 3: Just a few years ago, you went from hey, you

410
00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:17,320
Speaker 3: get a scholarship to go to college, that's your full compensation.

411
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,080
Speaker 3: Now you can get basically paid to play. You can

412
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:24,880
Speaker 3: also get name, image and likeness. You guys are working

413
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 3: on a bill to try to standardize laws and make

414
00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,639
Speaker 3: these rules consistent. Tell me what you're working on and

415
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:33,360
Speaker 3: where you are.

416
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:37,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, we've got legislations actually bipartisan support. The

417
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:41,480
Speaker 5: key sponsors are Gustilla Rockis from Florida and Scott Fitzgerald,

418
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:44,400
Speaker 5: who's on our committee from the Great Say of Wisconsin.

419
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:48,199
Speaker 5: And we try to outline some some basic things we

420
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 5: want to make sure we spell out for athletes, you

421
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,240
Speaker 5: have a right to get innil money. You have a

422
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 5: right to work with agents. You have a right to

423
00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:56,600
Speaker 5: keep that information private. We make sure in this bill

424
00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 5: that the agents have to disclose. Right now, nobody knows

425
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,800
Speaker 5: who some of these agents are. There's kids transfer and

426
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:05,359
Speaker 5: every year, so agent disclosure. We put in some guaranteed

427
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,240
Speaker 5: rights for the student athletes. Now most of most of

428
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,720
Speaker 5: these student athletes already have this, uh, but we want

429
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:11,680
Speaker 5: to make sure it's in there. And then probably the

430
00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:15,320
Speaker 5: key part is we allow the entity that governs college

431
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:17,359
Speaker 5: sports and we don't say what it is, but an essence,

432
00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:20,160
Speaker 5: it's the n c double A to set some rules

433
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 5: and and and basically say okay, we're going to give

434
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 5: you a liability protection. This is the any trust issue.

435
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 5: We're going to give you a liability protection so that

436
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 5: you can say, here's what it takes to be eligible.

437
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:33,720
Speaker 5: You've got to maintain a certain GPA. Here's here's how

438
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 5: many years about. We've got kids student athletes today who

439
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:40,920
Speaker 5: are competing like six years the COVID and everything else,

440
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:42,720
Speaker 5: in the red shirt tiers and everything else. They're doing

441
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,360
Speaker 5: like six seven years of competition. So we let let

442
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 5: the n CUBA set eligibility. We let them set that

443
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,600
Speaker 5: the number of times you can transfer. Right now, you know,

444
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 5: some of these athletes are transferreding, you know, four or five,

445
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:55,680
Speaker 5: six times, And what we're saying is you're going to

446
00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:58,920
Speaker 5: get one transfer under this hill. Allow them to get

447
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:03,240
Speaker 5: one transfer. And then we also put in there this

448
00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:06,359
Speaker 5: sort of salary cap concept which every sports organization have.

449
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:08,440
Speaker 5: And I want to thank you, Clay. I know you've

450
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 5: been working on this issue a ton with college with

451
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 5: conference commissioners, with athletic directors and coaches. We're trying not

452
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:18,680
Speaker 5: to get too prescripted, but we think this is the

453
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:20,920
Speaker 5: kind of bill that makes sense, particularly after the big

454
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:23,399
Speaker 5: decision of the House decision. And then finally there's a

455
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:26,240
Speaker 5: few more things where we talk about preempting state. You

456
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,680
Speaker 5: can't have each state setting up a standard and trying

457
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,720
Speaker 5: to outdo the other. So that's part of the part

458
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:33,040
Speaker 5: of the legislation as well.

459
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:35,919
Speaker 3: I've been working on this, you know, because I just

460
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:38,280
Speaker 3: think it's important to have a standard set of rules

461
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:41,439
Speaker 3: that everybody, I love college athletics people out there understand this.

462
00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 3: What is the likely because some people are going to say, well, Congress,

463
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 3: I mean, it's hard to get anything passed. You mentioned

464
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:50,359
Speaker 3: that there's bipartisan recognition that this is a mess, and

465
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,960
Speaker 3: I think anyone who is a college sports fan is

466
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:55,800
Speaker 3: nodding along. It is a mess right now. It's a broken,

467
00:23:56,200 --> 00:24:02,400
Speaker 3: you know, sort of haphazard system in place. Coaches, players, parents, uh, certainly, administrators, everybody.

468
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 3: What do you think the chances are that this passes?

469
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 3: I know, and I'll let you kind of dive in

470
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,720
Speaker 3: that President Trump has been supportive of trying to get

471
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:12,880
Speaker 3: this fixed as well, because he's a big college sports fan.

472
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:16,920
Speaker 1: What's the timeframe? What does that look like as you assess, Well.

473
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:18,960
Speaker 5: I think there's a there's a good chance that we

474
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:21,199
Speaker 5: can't get a pass. I mean, we've got Samari Figures,

475
00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 5: a new member from the Gratia of Alabama as a Democrat.

476
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:26,240
Speaker 5: We got to mal buying them from Washington, so we

477
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:28,840
Speaker 5: got already some some Democrats signing on. We think more

478
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:30,960
Speaker 5: will do it, and I think it's just a recognition.

479
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 5: I use example, I think the top college wrestling recruit

480
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,200
Speaker 5: this year is a young man out of Pittsburgh area,

481
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 5: and I think the rumors are he's getting like five

482
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,920
Speaker 5: hundred thousand dollars. So if the if the top wrestler

483
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:46,880
Speaker 5: is getting that, imagine what the quarterbacks are getting paid

484
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:50,879
Speaker 5: to go to these top notch, big ten SEC universities.

485
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 5: I mean it's it's a ton of money. There need

486
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:55,479
Speaker 5: to be there needs to be something done, and everyone

487
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 5: understands that. And so I think when you have coaches

488
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 5: and college presidents and athletic directors and conference commissioners begin

489
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 5: to talk to members of Congress and say we need

490
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:10,280
Speaker 5: something that gives some framework to college sports, something we

491
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:13,120
Speaker 5: all love, I think there's a good chance we get

492
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:15,000
Speaker 5: to kind of bipartisan support that you don't see a

493
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 5: whole lot of these days in Congress. But when it

494
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:19,119
Speaker 5: comes to college sports, I think you can get it,

495
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:21,000
Speaker 5: and we'll get something done that I think will be

496
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:24,960
Speaker 5: helpful to student athletes and helpful to college sports in general.

497
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,600
Speaker 3: You've been one of the biggest and foremost defenders of

498
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,720
Speaker 3: Trump for ten years. I mentioned the President Trump obviously

499
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 3: is a huge sports fan. He's talking about having a

500
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,920
Speaker 3: UFC fight on the White House lawn, which would be amazing.

501
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:37,640
Speaker 1: I bet you'll be there. I'd like to be there.

502
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:42,400
Speaker 3: You and I were together at the NCAA Wrestling Championships

503
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 3: in Philadelphia. You just referenced that when you look at

504
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,119
Speaker 3: Trump two point zero and the first six months of

505
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:51,560
Speaker 3: Trump two point zero and you compare it to Trump

506
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:56,160
Speaker 3: one point zero, how much different difference is there? And

507
00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 3: are you blown away, like both Buck and myself are

508
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,879
Speaker 3: at the President's energy and just the efficiency with which

509
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:05,760
Speaker 3: they have attacked this new term.

510
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:08,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, And I mean it's he's got his team in

511
00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 5: place around him and the key you know, agencies, cabinet secretaries,

512
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:15,240
Speaker 5: and they're just amazing. And you just look at the

513
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:18,919
Speaker 5: last the attack on I ran was and taking out

514
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,400
Speaker 5: their new cook capabilities was so successful. He goes to NATO,

515
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:23,360
Speaker 5: gets them to and he up more money. So successful.

516
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:26,480
Speaker 5: It's the big beautiful Bill Pass, so successful, the best

517
00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:29,640
Speaker 5: border security we've had in who knows our lifetime, probably,

518
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:31,800
Speaker 5: And you can just keep going all the things he's

519
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:36,960
Speaker 5: got done it's truly amazing and his energy. I called

520
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 5: him last night and then I actually went to bed

521
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:40,200
Speaker 5: and I woke up this morning and so where I

522
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:42,920
Speaker 5: had a misscall, he called me after eleven last night

523
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,320
Speaker 5: and then and you know, he was up early this

524
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 5: morning working the phones. I mean, that's just the kind

525
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,320
Speaker 5: of energy has he loved the country. One of the

526
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:53,879
Speaker 5: things I always say about him is he speaking of sports,

527
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:58,080
Speaker 5: he totally thinks like an athlete. He hates to lose.

528
00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:00,960
Speaker 5: He despises losing, which is it's a great quality. I

529
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:04,159
Speaker 5: tell people, it's an American quality, and it's certainly a

530
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:07,440
Speaker 5: character trait that you want in your commander in chief,

531
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 5: in your president, and President Trump just has it. So yeah,

532
00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:14,040
Speaker 5: I mean, he's off to an amazing start, and I

533
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,200
Speaker 5: think it's just going to continue to be good things

534
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:17,640
Speaker 5: that'll happen to the country.

535
00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 3: Yesterday we mentioned the idea of primetime hearings surrounding the

536
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:25,840
Speaker 3: Joe Biden cover up. I know you paid attention the

537
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,600
Speaker 3: doctor took the Fifth Amendment. Yesterday we led the show

538
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:32,080
Speaker 3: talking about that, is there any momentum to really kind

539
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:36,520
Speaker 3: of put people under the spotlight of a major national hearing,

540
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,000
Speaker 3: much like occurred with the jan six primetime hearings that

541
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:43,560
Speaker 3: Democrats did, and if I remember correctly the summer of

542
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:47,640
Speaker 3: twenty two or thereabouts, what kind of momentum, if any,

543
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:49,439
Speaker 3: might there be for something such as that.

544
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that option is certainly on the table

545
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:56,119
Speaker 5: with Cherry macomber. There's some things we're looking at in

546
00:27:56,160 --> 00:28:01,080
Speaker 5: slightly different areas on Judiciary Committee specific with the you know,

547
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:03,359
Speaker 5: sort of the auto pen doctor all that, all that

548
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 5: stuff with with Joe Biden. I really think that it

549
00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:09,119
Speaker 5: would be maybe the best thing is if you had

550
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:10,639
Speaker 5: a whistleblower come for I don't know if we're ever

551
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:12,240
Speaker 5: going to get that, but that that to me seems

552
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:15,720
Speaker 5: what we need to really say, Yes, there there wasn't

553
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:18,240
Speaker 5: really uh Joe Biden given the okay on this. This

554
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,720
Speaker 5: is other people, But that'll take a whistleblower coming forward

555
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:22,360
Speaker 5: to talk about that. Short of that, I think it's

556
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 5: tough to ever prove it. But that doesn't mean you

557
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,080
Speaker 5: don't have hearings to just highlight how how we now

558
00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:28,760
Speaker 5: you know, we we all saw at the time, but

559
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:32,560
Speaker 5: how we know how just how bad it was when

560
00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:35,199
Speaker 5: when when President Biden was in there and his his

561
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,640
Speaker 5: inability I think to truly handle the task at hand.

562
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 1: We're talking to Congressman Jim Jordan.

563
00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 3: Last question for you, Congressman, appreciate all the time, you know,

564
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:47,080
Speaker 3: I think decently Cash Patel and Dan Bongino.

565
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 1: I know there's a huge flare up. Buck and I

566
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 1: have been talking about this.

567
00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:52,720
Speaker 3: All week as to what might or might not be

568
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,960
Speaker 3: in the Epstein files, all those things what And You're

569
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:58,440
Speaker 3: not involved in the Department of Justice investigation, so I'm

570
00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:01,000
Speaker 3: not asking you about that. But what confidence do you

571
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 3: have based on your knowledge of the team in Cash

572
00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 3: Pattel and Dan Bongino running the FBI.

573
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:12,120
Speaker 5: I got complete confidence, complete confidence in them and Pam

574
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:15,840
Speaker 5: Bondi and Todd blanche over at the Attorney General Deputy

575
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:18,120
Speaker 5: Attorney General the just night and day compared to what

576
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 5: we have with Garland and Ray and that that's that crowd.

577
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 5: So no complete confidence. And the latest investigation they've announced

578
00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:26,560
Speaker 5: in the Comy and Brennan that that has been reported.

579
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,600
Speaker 5: I mean, I think this is critically important because never

580
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 5: forget what happened with Comy and Brennan and Clapper and

581
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:36,120
Speaker 5: these guys in twenty sixteen. President Trump wins and after

582
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:38,920
Speaker 5: election day, but before Inauguration Day, they all go up

583
00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:41,479
Speaker 5: to Trump Tower, New York and they brief him on

584
00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:44,960
Speaker 5: the dossier. Knowing at the time the dossier was BS.

585
00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 5: They brief him on it so they can leak it

586
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 5: to the press and give it and therefore give it

587
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:53,200
Speaker 5: some kind of credibility. That's that's how low they went

588
00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:57,400
Speaker 5: to go after President Trump. And now Director Ratcliffe has

589
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:01,040
Speaker 5: people who are saying, oh, this dossier was. Guys are

590
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 5: saying what Brennan said in testimony to Congress was contradicted

591
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:08,640
Speaker 5: by what they did. So I do think that investigation

592
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 5: is critically important.

593
00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 3: Awesome, appreciate the time, Congressman. Have a good weekend. I

594
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 3: know we're not quite there, and keep us updated. Come

595
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:19,000
Speaker 3: back on whenever you want.

596
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 5: We will take care please.

597
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 3: Thanks guys, it's Congressman Jim Jordan. Let me tell you

598
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:25,920
Speaker 3: everybody out there should have a will. You spend a

599
00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 3: huge part of your life doing what trying to make

600
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:32,760
Speaker 3: sure that your friends and particularly your family are taken

601
00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:36,480
Speaker 3: care of your family, in particular when you are gone,

602
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,800
Speaker 3: that they are able to have the best possible situation.

603
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:43,480
Speaker 3: You know, a huge number, in fact, the majority of

604
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 3: people never go through the process of setting up a

605
00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:50,479
Speaker 3: will and a trust to ensure that everything that happens

606
00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:53,760
Speaker 3: after you die. Maybe you limit arguments, maybe you limit

607
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 3: uncertainty about what you might want. It used to be

608
00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:00,480
Speaker 3: really difficult and you needed to spend a lot of

609
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,360
Speaker 3: time with an attorney. Not the case anymore, thanks to

Speaker 3: Find it on the iHeartRadio app or wherever you get

622
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:40,200
Speaker 3: your podcasts.

623
00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:42,920
Speaker 2: The third hour of Playing Buck kicks off now. We

624
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 2: are joined by Texas Senator Cornyn Senator, appreciate you making

625
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 2: the time for us. The story that is first and

626
00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:54,360
Speaker 2: foremost in our minds this week is anything you can

627
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:58,240
Speaker 2: tell us about updates and what the latest is with

628
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:01,800
Speaker 2: the terrible flooding that hit the Hill country in your

629
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:05,160
Speaker 2: home state of Texas and all the forest thoughts and

630
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:09,200
Speaker 2: prayers that this audience has been sharing with the families

631
00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 2: and the communities affected.

632
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:13,080
Speaker 1: What can you tell us, Senator, Well.

633
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 6: Thank you for having me on. And yes, it's a

634
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:20,040
Speaker 6: very sad time. I think the numbers are now one

635
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:25,160
Speaker 6: hundred and nine recoveries. Excuse me, it's now one hundred

636
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:30,160
Speaker 6: and twenty confirmed dead, and unfortunately they were then able

637
00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:35,640
Speaker 6: to account for about another one hundred and seventy who

638
00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:39,800
Speaker 6: are missing. Just so your listeners understand this. Of course,

639
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:44,080
Speaker 6: Guadaloopee River there overflowed went up twenty six feet in

640
00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:47,760
Speaker 6: forty five minutes in the middle of the night. But

641
00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 6: there were in addition to some of the children, the

642
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:53,520
Speaker 6: young children at some of these camps like Camp missed it.

643
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:56,760
Speaker 6: There were day campers, people who you know, cast a

644
00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:59,959
Speaker 6: tent down by the Guadalupe River or had a camper

645
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,560
Speaker 6: there for the Fourth of July and the fireworks, but

646
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,520
Speaker 6: unfortunately they got swept up in this as well. So

647
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 6: one hundred and twenty confirmed dead, one hundred and seventy missing,

648
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:15,560
Speaker 6: and of course this happened last Friday, so that number

649
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:16,720
Speaker 6: will probably go up.

650
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:21,680
Speaker 3: What as and I know we're still in the early

651
00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:24,920
Speaker 3: days of uncovering exactly went wrong.

652
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:26,120
Speaker 1: What went wrong?

653
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:29,320
Speaker 3: Obviously it's hard to predict anything as it pertains to

654
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:33,360
Speaker 3: flooding and exactly when it's going to happen. But I

655
00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:35,920
Speaker 3: know here where I live in Nashville, Senator, we had

656
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:38,960
Speaker 3: an awful tornado and you go back and you look

657
00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:40,880
Speaker 3: and you find out, Hey, maybe there could have been

658
00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:45,200
Speaker 3: a better tornado awareness system in place. Are there better

659
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:49,720
Speaker 3: flood related technology that could be applied to help people

660
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 3: in a situation like this where it comes through in

661
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:55,000
Speaker 3: the middle of the night and maybe people it seems

662
00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:58,360
Speaker 3: quite clearly we're sleeping and they don't know the severity

663
00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:02,160
Speaker 3: and how quickly and rapidly the floodwaters are rising, until

664
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,080
Speaker 3: in some cases, unfortunately it was too late.

665
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:09,000
Speaker 6: Well, that's a very important question, and I think there

666
00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 6: will be a time for us to explore all of that.

667
00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:16,200
Speaker 6: I know Governor Abbott has added this issue to the

668
00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:20,520
Speaker 6: special session that will conven and later this month in Boston,

669
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:23,719
Speaker 6: And of course we're already starting to look at some

670
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:28,359
Speaker 6: of these measures at the federal level too. Since we

671
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:32,120
Speaker 6: worked cooperatively at the state, local, and federal level on

672
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:38,160
Speaker 6: disaster relief and events like this. But unfortunately, there are

673
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:41,960
Speaker 6: always some people who want to make politics out of

674
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:46,359
Speaker 6: everything and claiming that staffing reductions at the National Weather

675
00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:50,440
Speaker 6: Service or some other cut as a result of the

676
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:54,640
Speaker 6: Department on the government efficiency or contributed to this. I

677
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:57,839
Speaker 6: will tell you that there is no evidence of any

678
00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:02,200
Speaker 6: of that happening, but it is I think fair to ask,

679
00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:05,040
Speaker 6: and indeed, I think it's necessary for us to ask

680
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:08,080
Speaker 6: going forward, what can we do to prevent the loss

681
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:13,120
Speaker 6: of life again if anything? As I said, it's flooding

682
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:16,160
Speaker 6: occurred so fast at a in the middle of the

683
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:20,000
Speaker 6: night in a way that just it's hard to imagine

684
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:23,799
Speaker 6: what could have prevented it. But maybe there's something we

685
00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:24,840
Speaker 6: can do in the future.

686
00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:29,840
Speaker 2: It's being the Senator John Cornyon of Texas and a senator.

687
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,839
Speaker 2: I also wanted to ask you about a story that,

688
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:36,920
Speaker 2: if it weren't for the huge story and the tragic

689
00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:40,040
Speaker 2: story of the flooding, I think would be much more

690
00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:44,759
Speaker 2: well known nationwide. It also occurred in Texas, and it's

691
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:49,560
Speaker 2: this ambush. I believe eleven people have been charged so far,

692
00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:54,600
Speaker 2: ambush of a federal law enforcement officer and an ICE

693
00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:59,360
Speaker 2: officer who was hit in the neck. They had rifles

694
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:04,239
Speaker 2: and tax gear, and to me, this is a harbinger. Unfortunately,

695
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:06,040
Speaker 2: I think of things to come with the way the

696
00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:08,120
Speaker 2: radical left is going to approach this. What can you

697
00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:11,120
Speaker 2: tell us about that case and about what law enforcement

698
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:15,800
Speaker 2: is doing to prepare for more of these radical attacks

699
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:16,799
Speaker 2: that are likely to come.

700
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:21,240
Speaker 6: I'm sure you'll agree with me that there is no excuse,

701
00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:27,200
Speaker 6: no justification for attacking law enforcement officials like these two

702
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:31,440
Speaker 6: ICE agents and the police officer in Alvarado, Texas. And

703
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:35,880
Speaker 6: I know that a criminal complaint has been filed that

704
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:39,200
Speaker 6: she alleges the assailant shot between twenty and thirty rounds

705
00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 6: from an AR fifteen style rifle before it jammed. But

706
00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:48,000
Speaker 6: obviously a whole lot more casualties could have occurred as

707
00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:52,040
Speaker 6: a result of this, and thank goodness they did not.

708
00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:57,240
Speaker 6: But unfortunately, I think some of the rhetoric irresponsible. Rhetoric

709
00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:03,040
Speaker 6: starting here in Congress from Chuck Schumer the Maxine Waters

710
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:09,400
Speaker 6: on down have basically sanctioned violence against law enforcement officials.

711
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:13,560
Speaker 6: You're familiar with the fact that some of my colleagues

712
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:16,560
Speaker 6: here in the Senate, the Democratic colleagues has said, we

713
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:19,239
Speaker 6: need to pass a law that prevents ICE agents from

714
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:23,600
Speaker 6: wearing masks. They were the ones who wanted us all

715
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:27,040
Speaker 6: to wear masks back during COVID nineteen. But now when

716
00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:30,879
Speaker 6: the law enforcement officials are doing their job and trying

717
00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:34,239
Speaker 6: to protect themselves and their families, they don't want that

718
00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:39,160
Speaker 6: to happen. So I can't imagine that the best. The

719
00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:44,280
Speaker 6: overwhelming majority of Americans condemn this sort of attack against

720
00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:47,120
Speaker 6: law enforcement, and we ought to make clear that there

721
00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:50,279
Speaker 6: is no excuse for this and it will be prosecuted

722
00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:52,040
Speaker 6: to the fullest extent of the law.

723
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:55,760
Speaker 3: Texas more the run of illegal immigration more than any

724
00:37:56,000 --> 00:38:00,000
Speaker 3: state in the nation. Now that illegal immigration has effect

725
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:04,200
Speaker 3: actively ended, how much difference has it made in Texas?

726
00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:06,560
Speaker 3: And what are you hearing from people in your state

727
00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:08,319
Speaker 3: about the border now being shut down.

728
00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:13,440
Speaker 6: Well, I think they're gratified that the borders now under

729
00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:16,360
Speaker 6: control and now the border patrol can go back to

730
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:20,640
Speaker 6: their job that they were trained to do and that

731
00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:24,360
Speaker 6: they want to do, which is to secure the border

732
00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:29,560
Speaker 6: and to protect the country. Given the overwhelming numbers of

733
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:33,040
Speaker 6: people that were coming across during the open border policies

734
00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:37,080
Speaker 6: of the Biden administration. Many border patrol were doing things

735
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:42,520
Speaker 6: like changing diapers, feeding people, transporting migrants and the like,

736
00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:46,640
Speaker 6: just because they were overwhelmed. And we all remember some

737
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:51,319
Speaker 6: of the detention facilities which were jam packed with individuals,

738
00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:54,000
Speaker 6: and what the answer to the Biden administration was to

739
00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:59,160
Speaker 6: simply parole or to release these individuals and without even

740
00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:02,400
Speaker 6: a notice to appear for a course hearing in the future.

741
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:07,280
Speaker 6: So I will say my constituents in Texas and along

742
00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:10,840
Speaker 6: the border are as relieved as anybody for this, for

743
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:14,840
Speaker 6: President Trump to actually enforce the law. And I know

744
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:18,560
Speaker 6: the border patrol morale is at an all time high

745
00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:22,239
Speaker 6: because they are now being allowed to do what they

746
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:25,080
Speaker 6: trained to do, what they volunteer to do, which is

747
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:28,320
Speaker 6: to secure the border and to protect the public.

748
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:34,880
Speaker 2: Senator, what can you tell us about your sense of

749
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:37,480
Speaker 2: what is going to happen now that the BBB, the

750
00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:41,640
Speaker 2: Big Beautiful Bill has been passed. What do you think

751
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:44,759
Speaker 2: is most critical that comes from this and what are

752
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:45,800
Speaker 2: you optimistic about?

753
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:50,760
Speaker 6: Well, I'm number one. We had to pass that bill

754
00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:54,840
Speaker 6: because if not, we would have seen a multi trillion

755
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:58,680
Speaker 6: dollar tax increase on According to the Wall Street Journal,

756
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:03,239
Speaker 6: sixty two percent of tax expayers. So all this propaganda

757
00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:06,600
Speaker 6: we've heard from the left, from Democrats that this just

758
00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:12,560
Speaker 6: advantaged billionaires and millionaires is just not true. And it's

759
00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:16,720
Speaker 6: shocking to me how easily people lie with impunity here

760
00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:20,359
Speaker 6: in the nation's capital. But it's become sort of coin

761
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:23,279
Speaker 6: of the realm, and they are just they can't be

762
00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:28,720
Speaker 6: shamed in stopping it. So we just need to combat

763
00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:31,680
Speaker 6: that with the truth. And there's a lot of provisions

764
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:33,680
Speaker 6: of this bill that I think people can be very

765
00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:37,520
Speaker 6: excited about. Number one, not having a huge tax increase

766
00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:41,200
Speaker 6: on top of forty year high inflation as a result

767
00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:45,839
Speaker 6: of bidnomics. The standard of living of Texans and Americans

768
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:49,360
Speaker 6: had gone down because of this hidden tax of inflation,

769
00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:52,400
Speaker 6: and a tax increase is the last thing they need.

770
00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:56,200
Speaker 6: But President Trump made clear he wanted to extend the

771
00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:59,680
Speaker 6: benefits of these tax cuts to people who work for

772
00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:02,920
Speaker 6: way for tips, and who worked over time. So this

773
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:07,160
Speaker 6: is truly a middle class tax cut. And I believe

774
00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:10,360
Speaker 6: that we'll stimulate the economy and economic growth in a

775
00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:13,120
Speaker 6: way that will create a lot of new jobs. It

776
00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:17,880
Speaker 6: will bring a lot of companies who built factories overseas,

777
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:20,439
Speaker 6: bring them back home and create a lot of good,

778
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:24,080
Speaker 6: well paying jobs here. I'm very optimistic about it, but

779
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:27,279
Speaker 6: it really can't be viewed in isolation. I think it's

780
00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:31,120
Speaker 6: part of a larger package of economic reforms that President

781
00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:34,120
Speaker 6: Trump is committed to that's going to see the economy

782
00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:38,520
Speaker 6: take off. And right now we're hoping to see at

783
00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:44,200
Speaker 6: least three percent growth in the economy GDP in coming years.

784
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:48,719
Speaker 6: We made a lot of these provisions permanent, including expensing

785
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:53,879
Speaker 6: the new equipment and bonus depreciation for small businesses. So

786
00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:57,120
Speaker 6: I'm very optimistic about it. But obviously we got to

787
00:41:57,160 --> 00:42:00,160
Speaker 6: go out and tell the story, and we need the

788
00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:03,879
Speaker 6: the guy with the best megaphone, the President, to get

789
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:07,400
Speaker 6: out there and help us, because people when he speaks,

790
00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:08,000
Speaker 6: people listen.

791
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:11,440
Speaker 3: I know, last question for you, Senator. I know you're

792
00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:15,360
Speaker 3: in the middle now of the primary process. I know

793
00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:18,239
Speaker 3: it's going to be still a ways out. You've got

794
00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:22,360
Speaker 3: to contender on at least one contender on your side

795
00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:24,799
Speaker 3: of the isle. In Ken Paxton, I don't know if

796
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:28,520
Speaker 3: you saw this, but Jasmine Crockett on the Democrat side

797
00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:32,799
Speaker 3: is potentially considering throwing her hat in the ring. What

798
00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:36,960
Speaker 3: can you tell us about the Senate race right now,

799
00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:39,759
Speaker 3: and you just mentioned President Trump. Do you think he

800
00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:41,960
Speaker 3: is going to weigh in in the primary? Do you

801
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:43,680
Speaker 3: expect him to stay out? How is this going to

802
00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:44,600
Speaker 3: play out in your mind?

803
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:49,960
Speaker 6: Well, when I saw Jasmine Crockett was leading candidate in

804
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 6: a Democratic primary, I wanted to say, run, Jasmine, run,

805
00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:59,400
Speaker 6: But so I don't know who's going to get in

806
00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:03,239
Speaker 6: the race. There may be more people in the Republican primary.

807
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:06,239
Speaker 6: The race is pretty quick. I mean the elections on

808
00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:09,480
Speaker 6: March the third, so we're the earliest one in the nation.

809
00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:13,760
Speaker 6: But I've run a number of racists in the past.

810
00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:18,640
Speaker 6: We know what to do and I'm confident of the outcome.

811
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:24,120
Speaker 6: But Democrats are hoping, hoping that the Attorney General is

812
00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:28,799
Speaker 6: successful because he's probably the only Republican that a Democrat

813
00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:33,000
Speaker 6: could beat in the general election, and because of all

814
00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:35,640
Speaker 6: of as many troubles. I won't go into right here,

815
00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:40,200
Speaker 6: but we haven't elected a statewide Democrat for thirty years

816
00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:43,600
Speaker 6: in Texas, and they're looking to break that winning street

817
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:46,839
Speaker 6: if for somehow he's able to squeak out a win

818
00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:49,240
Speaker 6: in this primary on March the third. But I'm determined

819
00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:49,799
Speaker 6: not to let.

820
00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:54,440
Speaker 3: That happen, Senator, We appreciate the time, and yeah, run

821
00:43:54,560 --> 00:43:56,520
Speaker 3: Jasmine Run. I think there's a lot of people out

822
00:43:56,520 --> 00:43:58,719
Speaker 3: there that think she would probably be the best possible

823
00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:02,000
Speaker 3: steward for the Democrat Party in the twenty twenty six

824
00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:05,440
Speaker 3: Senate race. Appreciate the time, sir, and I want to

825
00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:09,520
Speaker 3: remind people everybody out there, we have fund raising opportunities

826
00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:13,080

Speaker 3: dot com if you're looking for a good place to donate.

828
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:18,880
Speaker 1: Thank you, Senator, thanks a lot, appreciate it.

829
00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:22,080
Speaker 3: Since nine to eleven, the Tunnel of the Towers Foundation

830
00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:25,560
Speaker 3: has been supporting America's greatest heroes and their families, Heroes

831
00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:29,440
Speaker 3: who protect our communities and our country. Heroes like firefighter

832
00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:33,000
Speaker 3: James Dickman. He was passionate about fire safety and aspired

833
00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:35,200
Speaker 3: to do everything in his power to keep his community

834
00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:38,800
Speaker 3: and fellow firefighters safe. While responding to an apartment fire,

835
00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:41,120
Speaker 3: James and his crew tried to save people who were

836
00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:44,960
Speaker 3: thought to be trapped inside. When the situation escalated, James

837
00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:49,040
Speaker 3: was able was unfortunately not able to escape. He perished

838
00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:51,680
Speaker 3: in the blazing inferno. The cause of the fire, arson

839
00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:56,160
Speaker 3: James leaves behind his loving wife, Jamie, children page and grant.

840
00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:58,680

00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:35,040
Speaker 3: battle in general.

853
00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:35,360
Speaker 1: Buck.

854
00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:38,920
Speaker 3: In the Texas Senate race, I just kind of mentioned

855
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:42,560
Speaker 3: Jasmine Crockett. It is very funny. Run Jasmine run, was

856
00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:46,920
Speaker 3: what Senator can Uh. Senator Uh John Cornyn said. He

857
00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:51,319
Speaker 3: is running against Ken Paxton on the Republican side, the

858
00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:54,200
Speaker 3: attorney general. And there is talk that there may be

859
00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:57,960
Speaker 3: other people throwing their hats in the ring. Democrat side

860
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:00,680
Speaker 3: is going to have a lot too and so and

861
00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:04,800
Speaker 3: he mentioned that the primary is early in Texas in March,

862
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:08,320
Speaker 3: so that will be a big battle to see whether

863
00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:14,600
Speaker 3: Trump gets involved. And in the larger political universe, that

864
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:18,799
Speaker 3: is a Senate seat that Democrats would have to be

865
00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:22,280
Speaker 3: able to flip to put the Senate really in danger.

866
00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:26,120
Speaker 3: North Carolina now with Tom Tillis not running, is going

867
00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:29,359
Speaker 3: to be an open, no incumbent seat. There's a lot

868
00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:34,399
Speaker 3: of battlegrounds in New Hampshire, in Michigan, in so many

869
00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:37,880
Speaker 3: different states out there, Georgia to see exactly what's going

870
00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:41,600
Speaker 3: to happen. But this is why building the biggest possible

871
00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:45,080
Speaker 3: advantage fifty three forty seven with the tie break matters

872
00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:48,160
Speaker 3: so much. Texans I would be stunned if they're going

873
00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:50,200
Speaker 3: to vote for a Democrat. But there's going to be

874
00:46:50,200 --> 00:46:52,400
Speaker 3: a lot of money raised, a lot of energy out there.

875
00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:56,000
Speaker 3: So that's one to pay attention to, as I know

876
00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:59,360
Speaker 3: many of you out there are paying attention to. We

877
00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:04,080
Speaker 3: got a a question from a caller that I think

878
00:47:04,239 --> 00:47:09,839
Speaker 3: is a good one that is diving in with the question. Unfortunately,

879
00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:13,080
Speaker 3: now that over one hundred people have died that flood

880
00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:15,680
Speaker 3: hitting in the middle of the night as it did,

881
00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:19,320
Speaker 3: Greg and Orlando, Florida. This is a really good question

882
00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:21,680
Speaker 3: that I think a lot of people are wondering going

883
00:47:21,719 --> 00:47:23,160
Speaker 3: forward to try to keep this from happening.

884
00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:23,760
Speaker 1: Fire away.

885
00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:28,239
Speaker 7: Hey guys, I love you guys. I'm local truck driver

886
00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:30,319
Speaker 7: here so have the ability to listen to it all

887
00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:30,799
Speaker 7: day long.

888
00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:33,520
Speaker 1: From we love our truckers. You guys are rolling with

889
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:34,839
Speaker 1: us the whole show. Thank you.

890
00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:38,840
Speaker 7: Yeah to you guys, said Dana Lass and all great programs,

891
00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:40,759
Speaker 7: but I look forward mostly for you guys, so I

892
00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:44,200
Speaker 7: love the show. What I wanted to say was I'm

893
00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:46,680
Speaker 7: not familiar with Texas First Day, but here in Florida,

894
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:50,360
Speaker 7: we have alert systems Amber alerts for child children that

895
00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:52,680
Speaker 7: are missing. I wonder if there's anything in place or

896
00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:56,040
Speaker 7: could go in place like that for national disaster type

897
00:47:56,080 --> 00:47:59,279
Speaker 7: events that could help a mitigate or prevent or at

898
00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:02,760
Speaker 7: least alert larger areas of something.

899
00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:06,360
Speaker 2: Look, it's a very it's a very good question, Greg

900
00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:08,319
Speaker 2: and I think that they're gonna look at this, and

901
00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:12,160
Speaker 2: but I'll just point this out you guys. I know

902
00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:13,799
Speaker 2: this is gonna sound like it's very different, but it

903
00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:15,879
Speaker 2: will make sense in a second. You know how when

904
00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:19,520
Speaker 2: trucks go backwards, they beat they make this beeping sound.

905
00:48:20,520 --> 00:48:24,399
Speaker 2: They've looked into this because still sometimes people get run

906
00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:26,960
Speaker 2: over by the truck even when it's beeping. And I

907
00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:29,759
Speaker 2: think you can guess why people get so used to

908
00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:34,279
Speaker 2: hearing the beeping that and it's so danger isn't there

909
00:48:34,719 --> 00:48:37,920
Speaker 2: often times too correct because it's so far away that

910
00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:42,120
Speaker 2: their brain doesn't process, Oh maybe there's something actually that's

911
00:48:42,120 --> 00:48:44,399
Speaker 2: a that's a real risk here because I'm always You're

912
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:47,880
Speaker 2: hearing that beeping everywhere, babe, all the time. That can

913
00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:50,640
Speaker 2: be the truth of alerts too. You you know, you

914
00:48:50,719 --> 00:48:53,320
Speaker 2: hear these alerts, and if you hear them too frequently,

915
00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:55,800
Speaker 2: especially about something like flooding in a flood prone area,

916
00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:58,400
Speaker 2: you know, so then you get into how do you

917
00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:02,600
Speaker 2: know when it's really the time and you're really telling

918
00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:04,200
Speaker 2: people and who makes that decision?

919
00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:07,839
Speaker 3: It's a little bit like yes, And I think they're

920
00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:09,840
Speaker 3: going to look into that, and I think it's something

921
00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:10,680
Speaker 3: again what I mentioned.

922
00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:12,319
Speaker 1: We had tornado sirens here.

923
00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:15,880
Speaker 3: They go off, and I think it's the most valuable

924
00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:18,960
Speaker 3: at night because during the day you can assess in

925
00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:21,160
Speaker 3: some way if the river is coming up, you can

926
00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:23,960
Speaker 3: see it, you can look outside, you can recognize it.

927
00:49:24,360 --> 00:49:26,840
Speaker 3: If you're sleeping. Even if you're getting alerts on your phone,

928
00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:29,040
Speaker 3: you may not recognize them, and it can happen so

929
00:49:29,160 --> 00:49:32,520
Speaker 3: quickly you almost have to wake someone up from sleep,

930
00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:35,480
Speaker 3: and then the challenge becomes to your point buck. Sometimes,

931
00:49:35,520 --> 00:49:38,120
Speaker 3: if you do it too frequently, you just presume that

932
00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:40,920
Speaker 3: it's not an actual danger and you ignore it.
