1
00:00:11,657 --> 00:00:14,937
Speaker 1: You're listening to The Buck Sexton Show podcast, make sure

2
00:00:14,937 --> 00:00:17,977
Speaker 1: you subscribe to the podcast on the iHeartRadio app or

3
00:00:17,977 --> 00:00:22,857
Speaker 1: wherever you get your podcasts. Looks like the state of

4
00:00:22,857 --> 00:00:25,977
Speaker 1: Florida has delivered a huge blow to the Disney Corporation today,

5
00:00:26,097 --> 00:00:30,177
Speaker 1: revoking a decades old rule that allows the company to

6
00:00:30,217 --> 00:00:33,577
Speaker 1: operate as an independent government around its theme park. Is

7
00:00:33,577 --> 00:00:36,657
Speaker 1: this the way forward for conservatives to actually fight fire

8
00:00:36,697 --> 00:00:45,777
Speaker 1: with fire, friends, It's time for all one. But I

9
00:00:45,817 --> 00:00:49,697
Speaker 1: am announcing today that we are expanding the call of

10
00:00:49,737 --> 00:00:52,297
Speaker 1: what they are going to be considering this week, and

11
00:00:52,337 --> 00:00:55,417
Speaker 1: so yes, they will be considering the congressional map, but

12
00:00:55,537 --> 00:01:00,097
Speaker 1: they also will be considering termination of all special districts

13
00:01:00,297 --> 00:01:03,497
Speaker 1: that were enacted in Florida prior to nineteen sixty eight,

14
00:01:03,657 --> 00:01:10,297
Speaker 1: and that includes the Red Creek Improvement District. Welcome hold

15
00:01:10,337 --> 00:01:13,217
Speaker 1: al on on, buck Sexton, don't mess with the scantists.

16
00:01:13,577 --> 00:01:17,057
Speaker 1: This is a guy who gets it. He understands that

17
00:01:17,097 --> 00:01:20,777
Speaker 1: we are in a conflict, a battle for the soul

18
00:01:20,937 --> 00:01:23,697
Speaker 1: and the future of this country, and the woke left

19
00:01:23,777 --> 00:01:25,657
Speaker 1: is trying to kick at the load bearing walls of

20
00:01:25,657 --> 00:01:28,777
Speaker 1: our civilization with all of its might. We can sit

21
00:01:28,857 --> 00:01:31,417
Speaker 1: around and say to ourselves, you know what, let's try

22
00:01:31,417 --> 00:01:34,217
Speaker 1: to create a neutral space. Let's not be too rough

23
00:01:34,257 --> 00:01:36,497
Speaker 1: with the other side. They may be angry about that,

24
00:01:36,617 --> 00:01:40,617
Speaker 1: or we can realize that corporations have been largely weaponized

25
00:01:40,657 --> 00:01:43,017
Speaker 1: by the left in the culture and let's just be

26
00:01:43,057 --> 00:01:45,817
Speaker 1: honest political wars in this country right now to try

27
00:01:45,857 --> 00:01:50,897
Speaker 1: to silence conservatism, traditional values, you name it. Corporations are

28
00:01:50,897 --> 00:01:53,577
Speaker 1: the shock troops of the woke left. The biggest, most

29
00:01:53,577 --> 00:01:57,377
Speaker 1: powerful and wealthy corporations in America in particular, and that

30
00:01:57,497 --> 00:02:03,697
Speaker 1: includes Disney, the great American purveyor of dreams and cartoons

31
00:02:03,737 --> 00:02:07,417
Speaker 1: and fairy tales that was then. Now Disney has executives

32
00:02:07,457 --> 00:02:09,257
Speaker 1: who want to make sure that children are exposed to

33
00:02:09,377 --> 00:02:14,217
Speaker 1: enough trans content and non binary characters who have pan

34
00:02:14,417 --> 00:02:18,377
Speaker 1: sexual identity and ideology. I don't even know what some

35
00:02:18,417 --> 00:02:19,977
Speaker 1: of this stuff means. I don't think anybody knows what

36
00:02:20,017 --> 00:02:21,777
Speaker 1: some of the stuff means, quite honestly, including the people

37
00:02:21,777 --> 00:02:24,137
Speaker 1: who used the words. But Disney has kind of lost

38
00:02:24,137 --> 00:02:27,697
Speaker 1: its mind. Here is the Wall Street Journal writing about

39
00:02:27,737 --> 00:02:30,177
Speaker 1: this special district that might just be going away when

40
00:02:30,217 --> 00:02:33,057
Speaker 1: it comes to Disney. It was created in nineteen sixty seven,

41
00:02:33,097 --> 00:02:36,257
Speaker 1: known as the Reedy Creek Improvement District. It exempts Disney

42
00:02:36,257 --> 00:02:38,857
Speaker 1: from a host of regulations in certain taxes and fees.

43
00:02:39,257 --> 00:02:42,857
Speaker 1: It saves Disney tens of millions of dollars a year, accord,

44
00:02:43,097 --> 00:02:45,337
Speaker 1: according to a person familiar with the company's finances who

45
00:02:45,337 --> 00:02:49,457
Speaker 1: studied the issue over a decade ago. So this is

46
00:02:49,497 --> 00:02:51,697
Speaker 1: a big deal for Disney. Now why is this happening

47
00:02:52,017 --> 00:02:56,297
Speaker 1: Because Disney decided to try to influence state politics very

48
00:02:56,337 --> 00:03:01,177
Speaker 1: aggressively and go against the legislature in the state of

49
00:03:01,217 --> 00:03:04,537
Speaker 1: Florida as it was passing a parental rights and education law.

50
00:03:05,057 --> 00:03:08,057
Speaker 1: So here's really the message that Governor ro On De

51
00:03:08,137 --> 00:03:12,537
Speaker 1: Santis is giving to the Disney Corporation. You don't like it,

52
00:03:12,577 --> 00:03:15,697
Speaker 1: build your own Florida. In fact, here's Florida State Representative

53
00:03:15,777 --> 00:03:18,817
Speaker 1: Randy Fine saying Disney is a guest, but gotta be

54
00:03:18,817 --> 00:03:21,737
Speaker 1: on your best behavior. What this is about is about

55
00:03:21,817 --> 00:03:25,577
Speaker 1: Disney not recognizing that they are a guest in our state.

56
00:03:25,617 --> 00:03:27,777
Speaker 1: They are a California company that is a guest in

57
00:03:27,817 --> 00:03:29,777
Speaker 1: the state of Florida, and they are a guest that

58
00:03:29,857 --> 00:03:33,057
Speaker 1: has had special privileges that no other company has had.

59
00:03:33,257 --> 00:03:35,817
Speaker 1: If you want special privileges, you'd better be on your

60
00:03:35,857 --> 00:03:38,857
Speaker 1: best behavior. And when you come in and misrepresent a

61
00:03:38,977 --> 00:03:45,257
Speaker 1: bill that overwhelming majorities of Republicans, Democrats, even Biden voters support,

62
00:03:45,577 --> 00:03:48,137
Speaker 1: you're going to have an issue in the state of Florida.

63
00:03:48,377 --> 00:03:51,337
Speaker 1: Gonna have an issue. The left does this all the time.

64
00:03:51,857 --> 00:03:56,257
Speaker 1: Companies will decide that if you have a bathroom policy

65
00:03:56,337 --> 00:03:58,657
Speaker 1: that says you have to use the gender that you

66
00:03:58,737 --> 00:04:03,337
Speaker 1: actually are for bathroom and changing room purposes, there are

67
00:04:03,337 --> 00:04:05,377
Speaker 1: companies that will say, will no longer do business, will

68
00:04:05,377 --> 00:04:08,857
Speaker 1: no longer film our movie in your state. That's the

69
00:04:08,897 --> 00:04:10,817
Speaker 1: way the left plays the game. On the right, we

70
00:04:10,817 --> 00:04:13,457
Speaker 1: sit around and say, oh, but it's capitalism. Let's just

71
00:04:13,537 --> 00:04:16,737
Speaker 1: let commerce be our guide. Not so easy. And what

72
00:04:16,857 --> 00:04:19,617
Speaker 1: you've seen here is a reversal. The left thought they

73
00:04:19,657 --> 00:04:21,537
Speaker 1: could go on offense, and they were going to take

74
00:04:21,577 --> 00:04:24,377
Speaker 1: down Florida, which has been the free state of Florida

75
00:04:24,497 --> 00:04:28,217
Speaker 1: in the pandemic, economically better off than all these lockdown

76
00:04:28,297 --> 00:04:31,657
Speaker 1: blue Lib states. They would go after Governor Ron De Santis,

77
00:04:31,657 --> 00:04:35,817
Speaker 1: who is increasingly the most prominent and effective Republican politician

78
00:04:35,977 --> 00:04:39,097
Speaker 1: in America. I think I'm not even sure anybody argues

79
00:04:39,137 --> 00:04:42,377
Speaker 1: he's not the most effective Republican in the country right now,

80
00:04:42,417 --> 00:04:45,537
Speaker 1: I'd be wondering who else would be even in the conversation.

81
00:04:45,617 --> 00:04:48,257
Speaker 1: Maybe Governor young Kin, but he's just getting started in Virginia.

82
00:04:48,337 --> 00:04:50,937
Speaker 1: We'll have to see. And this is all over the

83
00:04:51,017 --> 00:04:54,137
Speaker 1: Parental Rights Bill. Think about how aggressive the left was

84
00:04:54,177 --> 00:04:57,017
Speaker 1: with this. They renamed the bill, and that had all

85
00:04:57,217 --> 00:05:00,817
Speaker 1: the all of their toadies and cronies in the news media,

86
00:05:01,337 --> 00:05:06,177
Speaker 1: all of their supplicants in the corporate legacy media calling

87
00:05:06,177 --> 00:05:08,657
Speaker 1: it that don't say gay bill, when this was just

88
00:05:09,057 --> 00:05:11,777
Speaker 1: a made up term to describe a bill that in

89
00:05:11,817 --> 00:05:14,617
Speaker 1: no way says you can't say gay. That's absurd, right,

90
00:05:15,097 --> 00:05:18,217
Speaker 1: Even the White House still digging in on this one

91
00:05:18,497 --> 00:05:21,097
Speaker 1: and pretending that we can't actually read the bill, which

92
00:05:21,137 --> 00:05:22,897
Speaker 1: is now a law. By the way, here's Deputy White

93
00:05:22,897 --> 00:05:27,777
Speaker 1: House Press Secretary Karen Jean Pierre saying just that our

94
00:05:27,857 --> 00:05:32,377
Speaker 1: view this is that but don't say gay bill is

95
00:05:32,417 --> 00:05:34,977
Speaker 1: really crystal clear. It's wrong. That's our view. It is

96
00:05:35,017 --> 00:05:39,057
Speaker 1: just wrong. Okay, So what's wrong about it? Tell us

97
00:05:39,057 --> 00:05:44,097
Speaker 1: what's wrong? Explain Democrats to the American people. What part

98
00:05:44,497 --> 00:05:52,017
Speaker 1: of preventing state paid, state funded bureaucrats teachers from talking

99
00:05:52,057 --> 00:05:55,577
Speaker 1: to children, not forever. I'm not talking about eighth graders

100
00:05:55,577 --> 00:05:58,977
Speaker 1: and teenagers, and you know, people are going through hormonal changes,

101
00:05:58,977 --> 00:06:02,457
Speaker 1: and adolescens have a five year olds and six year olds. Kindergartens.

102
00:06:03,177 --> 00:06:06,897
Speaker 1: You gotta talk to kindergartens about gender identity. When people

103
00:06:06,937 --> 00:06:09,177
Speaker 1: find out that that's what the bill actually says, they go, well, yeah,

104
00:06:09,177 --> 00:06:12,737
Speaker 1: that's that seems normal, including Democrats, I might add, a

105
00:06:12,857 --> 00:06:16,657
Speaker 1: majority of Democrats in the state of Florida actually believe

106
00:06:16,697 --> 00:06:19,137
Speaker 1: that this builds a good idea. So why is it

107
00:06:19,257 --> 00:06:23,057
Speaker 1: so evil? What's so wrong about it? Well, here is Jensaki,

108
00:06:23,377 --> 00:06:28,457
Speaker 1: who is a woman of the left, explaining that teachers

109
00:06:28,537 --> 00:06:33,137
Speaker 1: should be inserting ideas about gender identity into the minds

110
00:06:33,137 --> 00:06:37,577
Speaker 1: of very very small children. Watch, don't parents have a

111
00:06:37,697 --> 00:06:40,737
Speaker 1: right to have concerned? I mean we're talking specifically here

112
00:06:41,097 --> 00:06:44,617
Speaker 1: about teaching about sex and kindergarten through third grade. I

113
00:06:44,657 --> 00:06:47,177
Speaker 1: have to say, as a parent, I would have problems

114
00:06:47,177 --> 00:06:51,017
Speaker 1: with that. But the laws not about teaching sex education.

115
00:06:51,257 --> 00:06:55,497
Speaker 1: It's about teaching about gender identity. And so what do

116
00:06:55,537 --> 00:06:58,137
Speaker 1: you do if a parent or a kid should I say,

117
00:06:58,137 --> 00:07:02,097
Speaker 1: a kid in one of these elementary schools says, what

118
00:07:02,257 --> 00:07:06,017
Speaker 1: about Sally? Sally has two moms or I'm not sure

119
00:07:06,057 --> 00:07:08,417
Speaker 1: if I'm a girl or a boy. I mean, these

120
00:07:08,457 --> 00:07:12,377
Speaker 1: are kids who are experiencing, you know, these moments in

121
00:07:12,417 --> 00:07:15,897
Speaker 1: their lives. I also think that these are not There

122
00:07:15,977 --> 00:07:18,897
Speaker 1: is not a big record of there being either sex

123
00:07:19,017 --> 00:07:23,337
Speaker 1: education or extensive gender identity education in these schools, and

124
00:07:23,417 --> 00:07:27,377
Speaker 1: this is creating a problem or a political cudgel about

125
00:07:27,377 --> 00:07:31,097
Speaker 1: an issue that I don't think exists. Isn't that fascinating?

126
00:07:31,097 --> 00:07:34,977
Speaker 1: You just saw the White House Press secretary tell anybody

127
00:07:34,977 --> 00:07:37,137
Speaker 1: who was watching, and that was on CNN plus plus.

128
00:07:37,137 --> 00:07:38,817
Speaker 1: By the way, I had too good job control of him.

129
00:07:38,857 --> 00:07:43,817
Speaker 1: I like that CNN plus plus plus that she's saying,

130
00:07:44,257 --> 00:07:48,777
Speaker 1: it's not about teaching sexual sexuality or anything like that,

131
00:07:49,057 --> 00:07:52,817
Speaker 1: it's about gender identity training. Oh okay, how many people

132
00:07:52,857 --> 00:07:56,097
Speaker 1: even knew what gender identity was until the last few years.

133
00:07:56,137 --> 00:07:58,257
Speaker 1: I'm talking about adults, people that have been around for

134
00:07:58,377 --> 00:08:01,657
Speaker 1: decades and decade. She actually wants that to happen. She

135
00:08:01,697 --> 00:08:03,177
Speaker 1: wants kids to learn this stuff, and then she says

136
00:08:03,217 --> 00:08:06,297
Speaker 1: it's not happened. Doesn't make any sense. We come back,

137
00:08:06,337 --> 00:08:08,977
Speaker 1: We'll have more on Governor n Descantis is scorched Earth

138
00:08:09,097 --> 00:08:12,217
Speaker 1: tactics and I mean that in a good way against

139
00:08:12,217 --> 00:08:14,137
Speaker 1: Disney with a host of I'm right with Jesse Kelly

140
00:08:14,177 --> 00:08:16,617
Speaker 1: here on the first TV jac Kelly, let's talk about

141
00:08:16,617 --> 00:08:19,057
Speaker 1: protecting your online data. A lot of companies promise your

142
00:08:19,097 --> 00:08:21,817
Speaker 1: privacy is guaranteed. We know that's not true. That's why

143
00:08:21,857 --> 00:08:24,537
Speaker 1: you need a new privacy and cybersecurity application tool called

144
00:08:24,577 --> 00:08:28,257
Speaker 1: Secure spelled SEK. You are. Security is using proprietary encryption

145
00:08:28,457 --> 00:08:31,737
Speaker 1: and offering secure instant messaging and email with Secure all

146
00:08:31,737 --> 00:08:34,337
Speaker 1: of your communications based on servers and data centers hosted

147
00:08:34,377 --> 00:08:36,857
Speaker 1: in Switzerland without using any of the big tech platforms.

148
00:08:37,097 --> 00:08:39,537
Speaker 1: Privacy is a big issue now. Without real security, people

149
00:08:39,537 --> 00:08:42,697
Speaker 1: can read your emails, messages, even your bank information. Secure

150
00:08:42,777 --> 00:08:44,697
Speaker 1: will never mind your data and never ask for your

151
00:08:44,737 --> 00:08:47,457
Speaker 1: phone number. You can send emails to your doctor, banker, lawyer,

152
00:08:47,497 --> 00:08:49,697
Speaker 1: or anyone else with total confidence you're not being spied

153
00:08:49,697 --> 00:08:52,337
Speaker 1: on by your internet provider or Big Peck. Secure is

154
00:08:52,337 --> 00:08:54,817
Speaker 1: your solution to stop the constant theft of your digital identity.

155
00:08:54,897 --> 00:08:57,457
Speaker 1: Costs only five dollars from the messenger, only ten dollars

159
00:09:06,897 --> 00:09:14,817
Speaker 1: Jesse Kelly stops buying a moment, stick around, and we

160
00:09:14,857 --> 00:09:18,697
Speaker 1: will vote on these two bills. It is my hope

161
00:09:18,737 --> 00:09:21,857
Speaker 1: that we will be able to proceed civilly and with

162
00:09:21,897 --> 00:09:29,777
Speaker 1: decorum and with respect for one another. Read the next bill. Democrats,

163
00:09:29,817 --> 00:09:31,937
Speaker 1: they're throwing a temperate tantrum today on the floor of

164
00:09:31,977 --> 00:09:36,337
Speaker 1: the Florida House of Representatives as that legislative body voted

165
00:09:36,377 --> 00:09:41,337
Speaker 1: to revoke Disney's special governing status, with a bill now

166
00:09:41,417 --> 00:09:45,017
Speaker 1: headed to wrong de Santis's desk for his signature. Some

167
00:09:45,337 --> 00:09:47,697
Speaker 1: are concerned that the Florida governor might be going too

168
00:09:47,737 --> 00:09:50,897
Speaker 1: far and fear that the bill conflicts with a pro

169
00:09:51,057 --> 00:09:55,977
Speaker 1: business stance that conservatives usually favor. My next guest disagrees

170
00:09:56,137 --> 00:09:58,977
Speaker 1: is one thing that weak Sauce around here joining me now,

171
00:09:59,017 --> 00:10:01,417
Speaker 1: the host of I'm Right with Jesse Kelly here on

172
00:10:01,457 --> 00:10:04,057
Speaker 1: the first TV and of course syndicated radio host nationally.

173
00:10:04,457 --> 00:10:08,377
Speaker 1: Jesse Kelly, what's up, Jesse. I don't like the loser

174
00:10:08,417 --> 00:10:11,097
Speaker 1: mentality buff That's what's up. I'm not talking about you,

175
00:10:11,137 --> 00:10:14,457
Speaker 1: but what I've said about this. You and I've talked

176
00:10:14,497 --> 00:10:18,777
Speaker 1: about this privately before on the right. Government has only

177
00:10:18,817 --> 00:10:20,937
Speaker 1: grown for the last hundred years. So we've never had

178
00:10:20,937 --> 00:10:23,297
Speaker 1: a win. And people think we have, you know, because

179
00:10:23,297 --> 00:10:25,537
Speaker 1: while we had Trump, or we had Braggin or something

180
00:10:25,577 --> 00:10:28,337
Speaker 1: like that. Yeah, we've had some election wins. But if

181
00:10:28,337 --> 00:10:31,377
Speaker 1: you believe in limited government and all that, like we do,

182
00:10:31,777 --> 00:10:34,337
Speaker 1: you've never had a win in your life. What you've had.

183
00:10:34,457 --> 00:10:37,337
Speaker 1: What you think conservatism is, if that's the word we

184
00:10:37,577 --> 00:10:40,217
Speaker 1: still want to use for it, is complaining when they win.

185
00:10:40,657 --> 00:10:44,857
Speaker 1: That's not what we do. That's a hypocritical they're liars.

186
00:10:44,897 --> 00:10:48,777
Speaker 1: That's wrong. We think that's conservatism, is complaining when they win.

187
00:10:49,097 --> 00:10:52,417
Speaker 1: We don't even understand what winning is. If a corporation

188
00:10:52,577 --> 00:10:56,497
Speaker 1: declares war on your values. We have the biggest children's

189
00:10:56,577 --> 00:10:59,097
Speaker 1: corporation in the world. You could probably say in the

190
00:10:59,097 --> 00:11:02,257
Speaker 1: Whirlwind Disney. If they have decided they are going to

191
00:11:02,457 --> 00:11:08,177
Speaker 1: purposely pervert in groom children, they've declared war on your values.

192
00:11:08,337 --> 00:11:13,377
Speaker 1: If they've declared war, make war. Yes, what we're doing

193
00:11:13,537 --> 00:11:17,217
Speaker 1: is right, make them feel pain, make them fear you.

194
00:11:17,337 --> 00:11:19,897
Speaker 1: And we have these We have so many losers on

195
00:11:19,937 --> 00:11:22,657
Speaker 1: our side, and I honestly I sympathize with them who

196
00:11:22,777 --> 00:11:26,417
Speaker 1: just believe that the second you encroach, the second you

197
00:11:26,537 --> 00:11:29,097
Speaker 1: make them feel any pain at all, it's we've gone

198
00:11:29,137 --> 00:11:32,177
Speaker 1: too far. This isn't doing it the right way. We're

199
00:11:32,417 --> 00:11:34,177
Speaker 1: in a war for the future of the country. To

200
00:11:34,497 --> 00:11:37,497
Speaker 1: make war interesting that you use that term war, because

201
00:11:37,657 --> 00:11:40,857
Speaker 1: you're not the only one the chief Commissar of a

202
00:11:40,937 --> 00:11:46,217
Speaker 1: teacher's unions, the AFT Randy Weingarden chief Commissar should be

203
00:11:46,217 --> 00:11:49,057
Speaker 1: her official title. This is what she says about the

204
00:11:49,057 --> 00:11:52,937
Speaker 1: preental rights bill in Florida. Watch this same it. It's

205
00:11:52,977 --> 00:11:57,537
Speaker 1: this notion. And look where you know, we've been very

206
00:11:57,657 --> 00:12:00,097
Speaker 1: lucky in America, and we in some ways live in

207
00:12:00,097 --> 00:12:04,657
Speaker 1: a bubble for a long time. This is propaganda, This

208
00:12:04,737 --> 00:12:09,937
Speaker 1: is misinformation. This is the way in which war star,

209
00:12:10,337 --> 00:12:14,137
Speaker 1: This is the way in which hatred starts. This is

210
00:12:14,137 --> 00:12:17,257
Speaker 1: the way in which wars starts. She says, talking about

211
00:12:17,297 --> 00:12:22,417
Speaker 1: a parental rights bill that explicitly prevents five year olds

212
00:12:22,457 --> 00:12:24,657
Speaker 1: from being told, Oh, you think you're a boy, No,

213
00:12:24,737 --> 00:12:29,217
Speaker 1: you're actually a girl. Let's get you on some hormone therapy. Look,

214
00:12:29,737 --> 00:12:32,457
Speaker 1: it's been the greatest benefit for them. Buck. This is

215
00:12:32,497 --> 00:12:34,537
Speaker 1: something I know you talk about on your shows all

216
00:12:34,577 --> 00:12:38,097
Speaker 1: the time. The biggest win for the communists in this country.

217
00:12:38,297 --> 00:12:41,937
Speaker 1: It actually isn't even corporate America. It isn't Hollywood, it

218
00:12:42,057 --> 00:12:44,497
Speaker 1: isn't sports or whatever else you're mad they took over.

219
00:12:44,817 --> 00:12:48,217
Speaker 1: The biggest thing for them has been to educate the children.

220
00:12:48,537 --> 00:12:51,657
Speaker 1: They have taken children from well meaning parents for seven

221
00:12:51,777 --> 00:12:53,977
Speaker 1: eight hours a day, and they've done this for decades,

222
00:12:54,297 --> 00:12:57,217
Speaker 1: and they've taught these children to hate themselves, hate their parents,

223
00:12:57,217 --> 00:13:00,137
Speaker 1: hate their country. Now they've flat out moved that into

224
00:13:00,177 --> 00:13:04,177
Speaker 1: a really even more disgusting sexual realm. That is their

225
00:13:04,217 --> 00:13:07,257
Speaker 1: bread and butter. They're not trying, by the way, to

226
00:13:07,417 --> 00:13:11,217
Speaker 1: make your kids gay. They're trying to destroy your kids

227
00:13:11,257 --> 00:13:14,697
Speaker 1: mentally and physically, so your kids will hate you and

228
00:13:14,777 --> 00:13:17,617
Speaker 1: hate your country. Because a broken person is easy to

229
00:13:17,657 --> 00:13:20,977
Speaker 1: convert to communism. That is the goal they're trying to

230
00:13:21,017 --> 00:13:24,137
Speaker 1: break things. Because look, if you get some ten year

231
00:13:24,137 --> 00:13:26,497
Speaker 1: old boy who chops his penis off, it gets a

232
00:13:26,497 --> 00:13:29,657
Speaker 1: bunch of puberty blockers. What are the chances that boy,

233
00:13:29,777 --> 00:13:32,257
Speaker 1: if he even lives to eighteen or nineteen, becomes a

234
00:13:32,377 --> 00:13:35,697
Speaker 1: voting card carrying Democrat his whole life. They're about one hundred.

235
00:13:36,337 --> 00:13:38,617
Speaker 1: But if you have a child who's been top manners

236
00:13:38,657 --> 00:13:41,777
Speaker 1: who doesn't believe and that loves his country again not political,

237
00:13:41,977 --> 00:13:44,617
Speaker 1: loves this country, says yes, sir, no, ma'am, good kid.

238
00:13:44,857 --> 00:13:46,657
Speaker 1: What are the chances that child's going to be the

239
00:13:46,697 --> 00:13:50,177
Speaker 1: political enemy of the Democratic Party, They're very, very high.

240
00:13:50,217 --> 00:13:53,257
Speaker 1: They're simply recruiting new people in schools have been their

241
00:13:53,297 --> 00:13:56,257
Speaker 1: bread and butter, and threatening to take that away from

242
00:13:56,297 --> 00:13:59,097
Speaker 1: them is a huge threat to them. On this topic

243
00:13:59,377 --> 00:14:02,817
Speaker 1: of winning and actually pushing the advantage when the right

244
00:14:03,097 --> 00:14:05,457
Speaker 1: all of a sudden actually has one or has done

245
00:14:05,497 --> 00:14:08,057
Speaker 1: this a few times. Recently has been a rough week,

246
00:14:08,497 --> 00:14:11,137
Speaker 1: rough month. You could argue a rough year for Biden

247
00:14:11,217 --> 00:14:14,137
Speaker 1: the Democrats. I think that much is clear. But the

248
00:14:14,257 --> 00:14:16,097
Speaker 1: term that you know right at the heart of this

249
00:14:16,097 --> 00:14:20,337
Speaker 1: whole Disney situation. And I still what was amazing to

250
00:14:20,377 --> 00:14:23,377
Speaker 1: me was remember where that that corporate executive referred to

251
00:14:23,417 --> 00:14:25,777
Speaker 1: one of her children as pan sexual, And I remember

252
00:14:25,777 --> 00:14:27,857
Speaker 1: I made some comment like I don't even know what

253
00:14:27,977 --> 00:14:31,537
Speaker 1: pan sexual means, and all these blue check journals jump

254
00:14:31,577 --> 00:14:33,577
Speaker 1: in like, maybe you shouldn't be such an idiot. I'm like, no,

255
00:14:33,737 --> 00:14:37,217
Speaker 1: maybe people shouldn't be lunatics. How about that? I mean,

256
00:14:37,577 --> 00:14:41,337
Speaker 1: we are seeing the left exposed in a way that

257
00:14:41,497 --> 00:14:44,257
Speaker 1: I think is almost surprising to some Democrats who don't

258
00:14:44,257 --> 00:14:46,617
Speaker 1: really know who's calling the shots and who's really running

259
00:14:46,857 --> 00:14:48,857
Speaker 1: the behind the scenes of the party, where the real

260
00:14:48,937 --> 00:14:51,097
Speaker 1: power centers are, you know, people that have been voting

261
00:14:51,097 --> 00:14:53,337
Speaker 1: Democrat because they're like unions for the last forty years

262
00:14:53,417 --> 00:14:58,697
Speaker 1: or whatever. But Jesse, the term groomer really upsets them.

263
00:14:59,097 --> 00:15:02,137
Speaker 1: And I think that's interesting. What you know, when they

264
00:15:02,177 --> 00:15:04,377
Speaker 1: call when they call conservatives, they call you, call me,

265
00:15:04,457 --> 00:15:07,737
Speaker 1: call anybody a racist for example. If that doesn't bother

266
00:15:07,857 --> 00:15:11,017
Speaker 1: me at all, insofar as it's just anderis and a lie.

267
00:15:11,377 --> 00:15:13,377
Speaker 1: It's annoying that they do it, but it doesn't really

268
00:15:13,497 --> 00:15:15,097
Speaker 1: you know, you don't get a real right when you

269
00:15:15,177 --> 00:15:17,497
Speaker 1: call some of these people on the left groomers, or

270
00:15:17,577 --> 00:15:21,817
Speaker 1: rather say that their policies go toward grooming, they get

271
00:15:22,057 --> 00:15:25,097
Speaker 1: really upset. And I wonder why you think that is

272
00:15:26,857 --> 00:15:30,497
Speaker 1: because it's effective, because it's true, and because it's effective.

273
00:15:30,617 --> 00:15:33,057
Speaker 1: And what's wild about this bug is it's not just

274
00:15:33,217 --> 00:15:35,537
Speaker 1: you and me a couple of right wingers Gavin on

275
00:15:35,617 --> 00:15:39,137
Speaker 1: your show about this, it's them in their own words.

276
00:15:39,217 --> 00:15:42,257
Speaker 1: Of course, libs of TikTok. That Twitter account's been famous

277
00:15:42,257 --> 00:15:45,617
Speaker 1: it's been all over the news lately. But Libs of TikTok,

278
00:15:46,737 --> 00:15:50,737
Speaker 1: that account doesn't do right wing commentary. That account takes

279
00:15:50,817 --> 00:15:53,737
Speaker 1: a video that a crazy teacher with pink here at

280
00:15:53,817 --> 00:15:58,257
Speaker 1: eight thousand piecings in their face, put on video, put

281
00:15:58,257 --> 00:16:01,217
Speaker 1: it out there for public consumption, and Libs of TikTok

282
00:16:01,337 --> 00:16:04,617
Speaker 1: simply takes it and puts it on Twitter. This is

283
00:16:04,657 --> 00:16:07,137
Speaker 1: what this teacher said. This is what this teacher said,

284
00:16:07,177 --> 00:16:11,177
Speaker 1: This is what this teacher said. These people, they thrive

285
00:16:11,377 --> 00:16:13,417
Speaker 1: in the darkness, and this is actually a great news.

286
00:16:13,497 --> 00:16:15,337
Speaker 1: This is one of the things they really screwed up.

287
00:16:15,497 --> 00:16:18,297
Speaker 1: They loved COVID, and they used COVID to destroy the

288
00:16:18,337 --> 00:16:20,097
Speaker 1: economy like they want to do, and they used it

289
00:16:20,137 --> 00:16:22,577
Speaker 1: to get Donald Trump out of office. But they did

290
00:16:22,577 --> 00:16:25,217
Speaker 1: not think about the fact that COVID and the school

291
00:16:25,257 --> 00:16:29,577
Speaker 1: closures brought school home for parents. Parents still thought kids

292
00:16:29,617 --> 00:16:33,337
Speaker 1: were learning reading, writing, and arithmetic in schools, when really

293
00:16:33,377 --> 00:16:37,297
Speaker 1: they were learning some really disgusting things. And the communists

294
00:16:37,337 --> 00:16:40,057
Speaker 1: did not see that coming parents. This has been a

295
00:16:40,057 --> 00:16:43,057
Speaker 1: shock for them. You don't have to call them anything

296
00:16:43,177 --> 00:16:47,217
Speaker 1: specific except for what they are. We're not calling them groomers.

297
00:16:47,537 --> 00:16:51,497
Speaker 1: They are groomers. If you're a kindergarten teacher and you're

298
00:16:51,577 --> 00:16:54,137
Speaker 1: upset that you can't tell a little boy that he

299
00:16:54,137 --> 00:16:57,817
Speaker 1: can become a little girl, you are a groomer. That's

300
00:16:57,817 --> 00:17:01,657
Speaker 1: what you are. Yes, It's interesting that the teachers unions,

301
00:17:01,697 --> 00:17:04,937
Speaker 1: as I say, the education commissars, were so excited at

302
00:17:04,977 --> 00:17:09,377
Speaker 1: the prospect of getting paid to have their members stay

303
00:17:09,417 --> 00:17:12,257
Speaker 1: home and do their jobs and abandoned children for months

304
00:17:12,257 --> 00:17:15,057
Speaker 1: on end. They didn't think through the second order of this,

305
00:17:15,177 --> 00:17:17,497
Speaker 1: the second step of this, which was going to be Oh,

306
00:17:17,577 --> 00:17:19,417
Speaker 1: but now parents will be home and they'll hear the

307
00:17:19,497 --> 00:17:22,257
Speaker 1: kind of indoctrination that your children will be subjected to.

308
00:17:22,537 --> 00:17:24,777
Speaker 1: If Republicans don't make this a huge issue going in

309
00:17:24,777 --> 00:17:26,777
Speaker 1: the mid terms, we honestly we don't even deserve to win.

310
00:17:26,817 --> 00:17:29,097
Speaker 1: I mean, I think that's where we are. If we

311
00:17:29,137 --> 00:17:33,137
Speaker 1: aren't willing to push on what is clearly a major

312
00:17:33,217 --> 00:17:37,017
Speaker 1: week spot on the left. What's the point, Jesse. Not

313
00:17:37,057 --> 00:17:39,657
Speaker 1: only all your one hundred percent right bucket is the issue.

314
00:17:39,657 --> 00:17:42,377
Speaker 1: There shouldn't be a Florida thing. There should be every

315
00:17:42,457 --> 00:17:45,977
Speaker 1: race in all fifty states that Senate, Congress, all the

316
00:17:46,017 --> 00:17:48,737
Speaker 1: way down to school board. Every Republican in the country.

317
00:17:48,777 --> 00:17:51,017
Speaker 1: If they're smart and you're happy to be morally right.

318
00:17:51,497 --> 00:17:54,097
Speaker 1: If they're smart, they'll be running on this issue. Even

319
00:17:54,257 --> 00:17:57,337
Speaker 1: Democrat parents, we have all the poll numbers. Even Democrat

320
00:17:57,377 --> 00:18:01,697
Speaker 1: parents do not want their kids getting sexually indoctrinated in kindergarten.

321
00:18:01,777 --> 00:18:04,337
Speaker 1: They do not. This is the biggest winner of an

322
00:18:04,377 --> 00:18:08,617
Speaker 1: issue in the world. And the Communists are so stupid

323
00:18:08,777 --> 00:18:12,937
Speaker 1: and so insane. They're pushing back hard and wading into it.

324
00:18:12,977 --> 00:18:14,977
Speaker 1: They should be shutting up about this and trying to

325
00:18:15,017 --> 00:18:18,137
Speaker 1: move away. They can't stop talking about it. Jen Saki's

326
00:18:18,457 --> 00:18:20,857
Speaker 1: still running her fat mouth on the news every single

327
00:18:20,937 --> 00:18:23,497
Speaker 1: day about how sad it is that we can't tell

328
00:18:23,577 --> 00:18:26,137
Speaker 1: little girls they can become little boys. This is wonderful.

329
00:18:26,177 --> 00:18:28,417
Speaker 1: It's a winner that gift wrapped for us. Take it.

330
00:18:28,937 --> 00:18:31,737
Speaker 1: Speaking of Florida, Jesse, real quick, what's is this like

331
00:18:31,777 --> 00:18:35,657
Speaker 1: a Miami Weiss homage we got going on here? With

332
00:18:35,697 --> 00:18:38,137
Speaker 1: the T shirt with the blazer? What are you, don Johnson?

333
00:18:38,217 --> 00:18:41,137
Speaker 1: Did you get you some blonde hair dye? Are you

334
00:18:41,177 --> 00:18:43,537
Speaker 1: living on a houseboat and driving around in a ferrari?

335
00:18:43,657 --> 00:18:46,817
Speaker 1: What is okay? Okay, full disclosure. I have I have

336
00:18:46,857 --> 00:18:51,617
Speaker 1: to explain I was actually doing some radio work, and

337
00:18:52,537 --> 00:18:54,537
Speaker 1: I had forgotten. I was in the middle of something,

338
00:18:54,537 --> 00:18:56,617
Speaker 1: and I had forgotten I was doing your show. And

339
00:18:56,657 --> 00:18:58,857
Speaker 1: I looked at my photo and I thought, oh jeez,

340
00:18:58,857 --> 00:19:01,297
Speaker 1: I gotta do Buck now. And I didn't. I just

341
00:19:01,417 --> 00:19:03,777
Speaker 1: ran and grabbed the sport coded I knew as soon

342
00:19:03,817 --> 00:19:05,537
Speaker 1: as I sat down. I looked, and I thought, oh,

343
00:19:05,577 --> 00:19:07,897
Speaker 1: Buck's gonna say something. He's gonna say. And of course

344
00:19:07,937 --> 00:19:11,297
Speaker 1: you did. All right, Just go, just go lock up

345
00:19:11,297 --> 00:19:14,617
Speaker 1: the bad guys. Thanks for having us, Jesse. There we go.

346
00:19:18,897 --> 00:19:21,817
Speaker 1: Just weeks after it's launched, folks, CNN's parent company has

347
00:19:21,817 --> 00:19:25,337
Speaker 1: announced that the news network's long hyped streaming service, CNN Plus,

348
00:19:25,417 --> 00:19:27,937
Speaker 1: is going bye. By what a shame. We'll have more

349
00:19:28,017 --> 00:19:30,617
Speaker 1: on that with the editor of the Fourth Watch newsletter

350
00:19:30,617 --> 00:19:34,497
Speaker 1: and podcast, Steve Krackaur. Coming up after the break, Let's

351
00:19:34,497 --> 00:19:36,297
Speaker 1: talk about the newest sponsor here to hold the line,

352
00:19:36,337 --> 00:19:38,817
Speaker 1: the Silencer Shop. I'm a big supporter of the Second Amendment.

353
00:19:38,857 --> 00:19:41,017
Speaker 1: For many gun owners, using a suppressor is a must.

354
00:19:41,257 --> 00:19:43,897
Speaker 1: They protect your hearing and improve your accuracy because it

355
00:19:43,977 --> 00:19:47,297
Speaker 1: minimizes recoil. Suppressors are one hundred percent legal and forty

356
00:19:47,337 --> 00:19:49,737
Speaker 1: three states, So if you want to practice safe, accurate shooting.

357
00:19:49,977 --> 00:19:51,977
Speaker 1: The best way is to get your suppressors through the

358
00:19:52,137 --> 00:19:54,737
Speaker 1: silencer Shop. They have a variety of suppressor starting at

359
00:19:54,737 --> 00:19:56,937
Speaker 1: just three hundred and sixty five dollars. My friends at

360
00:19:56,937 --> 00:19:59,537
Speaker 1: silencer Shop are the industry leaders for suppressors. They're a

361
00:19:59,577 --> 00:20:03,297
Speaker 1: Texas based company that excel at customer service. Each phone call, email,

362
00:20:03,337 --> 00:20:05,737
Speaker 1: direct messenger comment is answered promptly, and they treat you

363
00:20:05,777 --> 00:20:08,617
Speaker 1: like family. Their customer reviews are amazing. On trust Pilot,

364
00:20:08,697 --> 00:20:10,977
Speaker 1: Silencershop has an average rank a four point nine out

365
00:20:11,017 --> 00:20:13,577
Speaker 1: of five stars based on over twenty five thousand reviews.

366
00:20:13,857 --> 00:20:16,417
Speaker 1: We can get more details online at the Silencershop website

367
00:20:16,457 --> 00:20:20,177
Speaker 1: that silencershop dot com, silencershop dot com, or go on

368
00:20:20,217 --> 00:20:23,897
Speaker 1: Instagram at Instagram dot com slash Silencershop. We'll be right

369
00:20:23,937 --> 00:20:32,817
Speaker 1: back with more. Hold the line. It's a bad day

370
00:20:32,857 --> 00:20:37,417
Speaker 1: for streaming services today. Warner Brothers Discovery announced that CNN

371
00:20:37,457 --> 00:20:41,177
Speaker 1: Plus to recall it. CNN, the streaming service that was

372
00:20:41,217 --> 00:20:43,057
Speaker 1: hyped is one of the most significant developments in the

373
00:20:43,097 --> 00:20:46,737
Speaker 1: history of CNN, will shut down on April thirtieth, just

374
00:20:46,977 --> 00:20:50,977
Speaker 1: one month after it launched. Meanwhile, earlier this week, Netflix

375
00:20:51,057 --> 00:20:53,697
Speaker 1: announced that it suffered its first subscriber loss in more

376
00:20:53,697 --> 00:20:56,177
Speaker 1: than a decade in the first quarter of twenty twenty one,

377
00:20:56,217 --> 00:20:59,497
Speaker 1: with a net loss of two hundred thousand subscribers globally.

378
00:20:59,777 --> 00:21:02,457
Speaker 1: The news spooked investors, causing IT shares to plunge more

379
00:21:02,497 --> 00:21:06,297
Speaker 1: than twenty five percent in extended trading. What's going on here?

380
00:21:06,777 --> 00:21:11,257
Speaker 1: Netflix is projected to lose two million subscribe and CNN

381
00:21:11,297 --> 00:21:14,777
Speaker 1: Plus was canceled before it even got started. Correlation between

382
00:21:14,777 --> 00:21:17,137
Speaker 1: companies going woke then broke can't be ignored. Ken it

383
00:21:17,657 --> 00:21:19,857
Speaker 1: for people finally starting to see the left in big

384
00:21:19,897 --> 00:21:22,577
Speaker 1: text secret agenda? And is that costing the bottom line?

385
00:21:22,737 --> 00:21:26,657
Speaker 1: Let's ask editor of Fourth Watch newsletter and podcast, mister

386
00:21:26,657 --> 00:21:29,777
Speaker 1: Steve krak Our crack. Good to see it, hey bug,

387
00:21:29,857 --> 00:21:31,857
Speaker 1: thanks for having me on. What do you think, man?

388
00:21:31,937 --> 00:21:34,097
Speaker 1: What the heck is this? I mean, CNN spent over

389
00:21:34,217 --> 00:21:37,297
Speaker 1: three hundred million dollars preparing for the launch of CNN Plus.

390
00:21:38,617 --> 00:21:42,977
Speaker 1: Is this the biggest news media launch failure in history?

391
00:21:42,977 --> 00:21:44,777
Speaker 1: I mean, there are some other things that would maybe

392
00:21:44,777 --> 00:21:46,337
Speaker 1: be in the running, but I can't think of any

393
00:21:46,377 --> 00:21:49,137
Speaker 1: bigger can you? No? I think that this is this

394
00:21:49,217 --> 00:21:51,577
Speaker 1: is certainly up there. We are on day twenty three

395
00:21:51,617 --> 00:21:54,297
Speaker 1: of CNN Plus and it will shut down on day

396
00:21:54,417 --> 00:21:57,537
Speaker 1: thirty two. I mean it calls to mind Quibby, which

397
00:21:57,617 --> 00:22:02,977
Speaker 1: was that mobile video app that they spend even more money.

398
00:22:03,017 --> 00:22:05,417
Speaker 1: I believe it was seven hundred and fifty million on content,

399
00:22:05,737 --> 00:22:08,417
Speaker 1: but that at least lasted like six months. Nine months. No,

400
00:22:08,897 --> 00:22:11,857
Speaker 1: this is sing how fast it came down. But the

401
00:22:11,897 --> 00:22:13,577
Speaker 1: truth of the matter is, first of all, we could

402
00:22:13,617 --> 00:22:15,977
Speaker 1: talk about the content that was on there and why

403
00:22:16,057 --> 00:22:18,417
Speaker 1: it maybe wasn't so killing to a lot of people,

404
00:22:18,497 --> 00:22:21,857
Speaker 1: considering it was essentially the content that was on CNN

405
00:22:21,977 --> 00:22:24,617
Speaker 1: that people were already not very interested in for free,

406
00:22:24,617 --> 00:22:26,977
Speaker 1: and now they're charging an up charge of three to

407
00:22:27,097 --> 00:22:30,257
Speaker 1: five dollars for it. But also this launched it just

408
00:22:30,417 --> 00:22:34,097
Speaker 1: as Discovery now Warner Brothers Discovery took over the company.

409
00:22:34,177 --> 00:22:36,577
Speaker 1: This was a pet project of Jeff Zucker and the

410
00:22:36,617 --> 00:22:39,697
Speaker 1: old administration. They launched this thing, and now they're trying

411
00:22:39,697 --> 00:22:41,857
Speaker 1: to sustain it. The new company comes in and said,

412
00:22:41,897 --> 00:22:43,817
Speaker 1: this has none of our fingerprints on it. We didn't

413
00:22:43,817 --> 00:22:45,617
Speaker 1: want this thing to launch in the first place. And

414
00:22:45,617 --> 00:22:47,777
Speaker 1: then rather than just seeing this through for a few months,

415
00:22:47,777 --> 00:22:51,257
Speaker 1: they said, let's cut the cord. This is done. Pretty shocking,

416
00:22:51,297 --> 00:22:53,417
Speaker 1: but also you know, this is this is how business

417
00:22:53,457 --> 00:22:55,977
Speaker 1: gets done these days, so so I think there's districts.

418
00:22:56,097 --> 00:22:57,577
Speaker 1: I was talking to this on radio to day with

419
00:22:57,617 --> 00:23:00,217
Speaker 1: my COHS Clay, and I said, it seems to me

420
00:23:00,377 --> 00:23:04,817
Speaker 1: like this is actually a Jeff Zucker project, right, I mean,

421
00:23:04,857 --> 00:23:07,697
Speaker 1: this whole CNN plus had to be put together because

422
00:23:07,737 --> 00:23:10,657
Speaker 1: he just left a couple of months ago, so he

423
00:23:10,777 --> 00:23:13,177
Speaker 1: must have been the one. I mean, so so really

424
00:23:13,177 --> 00:23:15,537
Speaker 1: this is a It's almost like Zucker was the guy,

425
00:23:15,817 --> 00:23:19,697
Speaker 1: you know, driving the Titanic and he happened to switch

426
00:23:19,737 --> 00:23:24,057
Speaker 1: places with somebody else before it hit the iceberg, right exactly. Look,

427
00:23:24,097 --> 00:23:25,657
Speaker 1: this has been in the works for more than a

428
00:23:25,737 --> 00:23:28,777
Speaker 1: year now. They've been hiring up people building this thing,

429
00:23:28,817 --> 00:23:32,737
Speaker 1: building the technology, getting some marque names depending on how

430
00:23:32,737 --> 00:23:34,817
Speaker 1: you want to look at it, but certainly spending marquee

431
00:23:34,817 --> 00:23:37,977
Speaker 1: dollars to get talent from Box News and from and

432
00:23:38,017 --> 00:23:42,377
Speaker 1: from MSNBC and from NPR and from all other places.

433
00:23:42,697 --> 00:23:44,777
Speaker 1: They finally brought them in and this thing was set

434
00:23:44,777 --> 00:23:47,977
Speaker 1: to launch in March, and Jeff gets fired, essentially gets

435
00:23:47,977 --> 00:23:50,857
Speaker 1: pushed out in February. But rather than pump the brakes

436
00:23:50,857 --> 00:23:53,697
Speaker 1: at this point and started to think all right, maybe

437
00:23:53,697 --> 00:23:56,777
Speaker 1: this we need to why why we launched this without

438
00:23:56,857 --> 00:23:59,297
Speaker 1: having it everything kind of the clear leadership team in place.

439
00:23:59,337 --> 00:24:01,857
Speaker 1: They just rolled on ahead, put this thing out there.

440
00:24:01,897 --> 00:24:05,217
Speaker 1: And as we know, about one hundred fifty thousand subscribers

441
00:24:05,297 --> 00:24:09,097
Speaker 1: right now, approximately ten thousand people watching every day. Those

442
00:24:09,217 --> 00:24:12,457
Speaker 1: numbers are not very good. And yes, for only three

443
00:24:12,457 --> 00:24:15,377
Speaker 1: weeks in, but that is not a good launch, particularly

444
00:24:15,417 --> 00:24:17,777
Speaker 1: when you think about how much money they've they've invested

445
00:24:17,857 --> 00:24:21,017
Speaker 1: into this, and how much time and energy and marketing

446
00:24:21,017 --> 00:24:23,257
Speaker 1: they put into this. It's not off to a good start.

447
00:24:23,297 --> 00:24:25,577
Speaker 1: You would think that maybe they have a longer leash

448
00:24:25,697 --> 00:24:28,057
Speaker 1: with the new bosses, say, look at cutter losses now

449
00:24:28,217 --> 00:24:32,577
Speaker 1: it's done. Certainly a lot of schadenfreude on the right

450
00:24:32,617 --> 00:24:34,577
Speaker 1: about this. Let's be honest, we're having a good time

451
00:24:34,617 --> 00:24:38,497
Speaker 1: with it. There's a lot of memes, mister Krakauer that

452
00:24:38,657 --> 00:24:41,457
Speaker 1: go around today that are having some fun at CNN's expense.

453
00:24:41,497 --> 00:24:46,777
Speaker 1: People sharing some memorable moments from CNN pass to give

454
00:24:46,777 --> 00:24:50,377
Speaker 1: a sense as to why did Americans apparently not want

455
00:24:50,377 --> 00:24:53,057
Speaker 1: to pay for hard hitting interviews like this one with

456
00:24:53,257 --> 00:24:56,217
Speaker 1: Bryan Stelter. So fourt to two years later, did the

457
00:24:56,257 --> 00:25:02,257
Speaker 1: two of you now happily retired, Do you still watch CNN? Everybody? Yeah,

458
00:25:02,697 --> 00:25:06,017
Speaker 1: here's the difference though. Here's a difference though. I used

459
00:25:06,017 --> 00:25:10,817
Speaker 1: to anchor at CNN and now why just yellow at CNA. Yeah,

460
00:25:10,937 --> 00:25:14,297
Speaker 1: everybody does that too, Right, you can just email me, Dave,

461
00:25:14,337 --> 00:25:16,777
Speaker 1: that would be great feedback. We'll take your feedback anytime.

462
00:25:17,817 --> 00:25:20,257
Speaker 1: I mean, the team here just pull that one. We

463
00:25:20,257 --> 00:25:22,217
Speaker 1: could have a lot more fun with CNN stuff they've

464
00:25:22,217 --> 00:25:25,617
Speaker 1: said on the air. But what what was the premise here? Was?

465
00:25:25,657 --> 00:25:29,177
Speaker 1: What that a channel that struggles and has maybe a

466
00:25:29,337 --> 00:25:32,177
Speaker 1: third in the prime in primetime hours, a third the

467
00:25:32,257 --> 00:25:35,257
Speaker 1: viewership of say Fox News. It's it's competitor obviously from

468
00:25:35,257 --> 00:25:37,937
Speaker 1: the other side of the aisle, is going to become

469
00:25:37,977 --> 00:25:41,937
Speaker 1: a digital b myth? Why, like, what was the thinking here?

470
00:25:41,977 --> 00:25:44,137
Speaker 1: Just so everyone understands, I mean, because CNN is the

471
00:25:44,337 --> 00:25:46,017
Speaker 1: is the airport channel, right, It's the thing that like,

472
00:25:46,097 --> 00:25:48,057
Speaker 1: it's on shelf and so that's what you have to buy.

473
00:25:48,097 --> 00:25:50,337
Speaker 1: It's it's the moldy bread that's all you've got in

474
00:25:50,337 --> 00:25:53,097
Speaker 1: the store when you're stuck in an airport that's snowed in.

475
00:25:53,577 --> 00:25:57,417
Speaker 1: So what was the idea here? Yeah, and the glass

476
00:25:57,417 --> 00:25:59,657
Speaker 1: half full version that would be that when new major

477
00:25:59,737 --> 00:26:03,097
Speaker 1: news breaks a war in Ukraine, people turn on CNN

478
00:26:03,177 --> 00:26:05,417
Speaker 1: on the day to day basis. They don't have any

479
00:26:05,417 --> 00:26:08,537
Speaker 1: talent that moves the needle. What was the thing behind it?

480
00:26:08,617 --> 00:26:10,337
Speaker 1: I have no idea, But let me tell you there's

481
00:26:10,377 --> 00:26:13,737
Speaker 1: three major problems, and Brian Stelter, right there is very

482
00:26:13,817 --> 00:26:16,697
Speaker 1: much exemplifies one of them. Brian has a show on

483
00:26:16,737 --> 00:26:19,297
Speaker 1: Sunday that not that many people watch. Now he has

484
00:26:19,297 --> 00:26:21,417
Speaker 1: a show on CNN Plus every day of the week.

485
00:26:21,737 --> 00:26:23,497
Speaker 1: Jake Tapper has a show every day of the week,

486
00:26:23,897 --> 00:26:26,417
Speaker 1: and it's about the news. Now we show on CNN

487
00:26:26,417 --> 00:26:28,497
Speaker 1: Plus called Jake Tapper's Book Club, so you can hear

488
00:26:28,537 --> 00:26:30,857
Speaker 1: about the books that Jake Tapper brees. Anderson Cooper has

489
00:26:30,857 --> 00:26:32,897
Speaker 1: a news show on CNN. He has a show about

490
00:26:32,937 --> 00:26:37,337
Speaker 1: parenting on CNN Plus. Why who thinks that people need this?

491
00:26:37,417 --> 00:26:40,617
Speaker 1: I have absolutely no idea. Another major red flag is that, look,

492
00:26:40,697 --> 00:26:45,417
Speaker 1: CNN does have content that's discovery, like Stanley Tucci Show,

493
00:26:45,457 --> 00:26:47,817
Speaker 1: but none of these shows have hit the way that

494
00:26:47,857 --> 00:26:50,537
Speaker 1: like Anthony Bourdein's show has. And I mentioned Anthony Bourdein

495
00:26:50,817 --> 00:26:53,137
Speaker 1: because Stanley he died three or four years ago. But

496
00:26:53,297 --> 00:26:55,897
Speaker 1: he was a major part of the CNN plus marketing.

497
00:26:56,017 --> 00:26:58,377
Speaker 1: Just the last couple of months. They don't have the

498
00:26:58,457 --> 00:27:00,017
Speaker 1: kind of hits that they used to have when it

499
00:27:00,057 --> 00:27:02,417
Speaker 1: comes to these news is shows. So instead, yes, you

500
00:27:02,417 --> 00:27:04,577
Speaker 1: can go and get the Anthony Bourdaine archives, but he

501
00:27:04,737 --> 00:27:08,177
Speaker 1: is sadley passed away four years ago now, so that

502
00:27:08,857 --> 00:27:10,897
Speaker 1: I agree that he he Steve would have been the

503
00:27:10,897 --> 00:27:13,417
Speaker 1: closest thing that they had to a tent pole, a

504
00:27:13,497 --> 00:27:15,377
Speaker 1: kind of big name, big show that might have been

505
00:27:15,417 --> 00:27:19,217
Speaker 1: able to draw in other folks. Absolutely. I mean, I

506
00:27:19,217 --> 00:27:21,097
Speaker 1: think that's a model for what you might want with

507
00:27:21,137 --> 00:27:23,337
Speaker 1: a streaming service. It's a binge able show and you

508
00:27:23,337 --> 00:27:26,097
Speaker 1: can watch multiple episodes. It's not tied to news at

509
00:27:26,097 --> 00:27:30,337
Speaker 1: the moment. It's a lot different than say, watching Chris

510
00:27:30,337 --> 00:27:34,777
Speaker 1: Wallace interview someone like Diane ben Furstenberg for an hour.

511
00:27:35,017 --> 00:27:37,537
Speaker 1: Why I have absolutely no idea? Do we know? I

512
00:27:37,577 --> 00:27:39,897
Speaker 1: got to ask you, so, Steve Justserver says, you used

513
00:27:39,897 --> 00:27:41,697
Speaker 1: to Steve knows CNN, used to work at CNN. He

514
00:27:42,097 --> 00:27:44,777
Speaker 1: knows the ropes over there very well. Do you think

515
00:27:44,777 --> 00:27:47,137
Speaker 1: they're going to pay out Chris Wallace is twelve million

516
00:27:47,217 --> 00:27:49,937
Speaker 1: or whatever obscene salary they're giving him. How does that work?

517
00:27:49,977 --> 00:27:54,457
Speaker 1: I figure probably right, it's a talent contract. I would

518
00:27:54,457 --> 00:27:56,857
Speaker 1: say that the talent is going to get paid out. Yeah,

519
00:27:56,857 --> 00:28:00,177
Speaker 1: I think these Chris Wallace for sure. I'm curious about

520
00:28:00,177 --> 00:28:02,457
Speaker 1: people like Don Lemon who launched a talk show called

521
00:28:02,457 --> 00:28:04,657
Speaker 1: The Don Lemon Show and it aired one episode and

522
00:28:04,737 --> 00:28:07,257
Speaker 1: now it's done. What does he I'm sure you have

523
00:28:07,377 --> 00:28:11,577
Speaker 1: the clause in the contract that and now I've got

524
00:28:11,577 --> 00:28:13,817
Speaker 1: to talk show even if it airs or not. And

525
00:28:14,137 --> 00:28:16,857
Speaker 1: I have to say, I mean, look, CNN plus hired

526
00:28:17,097 --> 00:28:21,337
Speaker 1: more than two hundred people to work on now they

527
00:28:21,377 --> 00:28:24,857
Speaker 1: have said they will essentially pay nine months severance, which

528
00:28:24,897 --> 00:28:27,457
Speaker 1: is very nice for maybe a low level production assistant

529
00:28:27,457 --> 00:28:29,217
Speaker 1: that thought they were coming on to this new big

530
00:28:29,257 --> 00:28:31,937
Speaker 1: thing and it lasted for four weeks and now they're

531
00:28:31,937 --> 00:28:33,817
Speaker 1: out of a job. They do have nine months severance,

532
00:28:34,057 --> 00:28:38,737
Speaker 1: but it's a total disaster. And look, I noticed last

533
00:28:38,777 --> 00:28:40,897
Speaker 1: week that something was wrong when the at scene and

534
00:28:40,937 --> 00:28:43,177
Speaker 1: Twitter account, which you mentioned. I used to work at CNN.

535
00:28:43,257 --> 00:28:45,257
Speaker 1: One of my jobs was running the at scene on

536
00:28:45,297 --> 00:28:48,257
Speaker 1: Twitter account fifty eight million followers. You know how many

537
00:28:48,257 --> 00:28:51,017
Speaker 1: times the at scene and Twitter account mentioned CNN plus

538
00:28:51,697 --> 00:28:56,377
Speaker 1: zero zero times they have mentioned their own streaming channel.

539
00:28:56,417 --> 00:28:59,377
Speaker 1: There was no marketing coordination behind this. There was no

540
00:28:59,457 --> 00:29:02,217
Speaker 1: effort to sample content or to get it out into

541
00:29:02,257 --> 00:29:06,097
Speaker 1: different streams. It was a mess from I know you

542
00:29:06,177 --> 00:29:09,417
Speaker 1: have a fantastic media newsletter you put out, but I

543
00:29:09,657 --> 00:29:13,457
Speaker 1: do think fit the most prominent media critic in America

544
00:29:14,657 --> 00:29:17,097
Speaker 1: needed to weigh in on this one as well, former

545
00:29:17,097 --> 00:29:21,537
Speaker 1: President Donald Trump. So here's what he says. Congratulations to

546
00:29:21,657 --> 00:29:25,457
Speaker 1: CNN plus other decision to immediately fold for lack of

547
00:29:25,577 --> 00:29:28,497
Speaker 1: ratings or viewers in any way, shape or form. It

548
00:29:28,537 --> 00:29:31,057
Speaker 1: was like an empty desert out there. Despite spending one

549
00:29:31,097 --> 00:29:33,377
Speaker 1: hundreds of millions of dollars. In any event, there's just

550
00:29:33,417 --> 00:29:35,457
Speaker 1: one more piece of CNN and fake news you don't

551
00:29:35,457 --> 00:29:38,057
Speaker 1: want to bother with anymore. I mean, Steve, I think

552
00:29:38,177 --> 00:29:41,737
Speaker 1: I think he pretty much nails the key points. He does. Yeah,

553
00:29:41,977 --> 00:29:43,857
Speaker 1: I mean, the great thing about Donald Trump is that

554
00:29:43,937 --> 00:29:47,617
Speaker 1: he was such a media critic and a I mean,

555
00:29:47,657 --> 00:29:49,257
Speaker 1: I wish that was a tweet now that would have

556
00:29:49,297 --> 00:29:52,257
Speaker 1: been been going virals. Sadly he can't tweet. No, I

557
00:29:53,017 --> 00:29:55,657
Speaker 1: he nailed it. Yeah, it was. It was doomed kind

558
00:29:55,697 --> 00:29:57,697
Speaker 1: of from the beginning. It did never really made a

559
00:29:57,697 --> 00:29:59,417
Speaker 1: ton of sense. I think about you know, we mentioned

560
00:29:59,457 --> 00:30:02,377
Speaker 1: Chris Wallace is like this big splashy higher casey hunt

561
00:30:02,417 --> 00:30:05,817
Speaker 1: from MSNBC. Rex Chapman, the guy who has a lot

562
00:30:05,857 --> 00:30:08,057
Speaker 1: of tweets so that he sort of steals from other

563
00:30:08,097 --> 00:30:11,777
Speaker 1: people and other memes. It was. I watched a couple

564
00:30:11,817 --> 00:30:14,297
Speaker 1: of clips of his show. It's just painful. I mean,

565
00:30:14,337 --> 00:30:16,337
Speaker 1: I don't know if they ever thought Grex Cheman as

566
00:30:16,337 --> 00:30:18,257
Speaker 1: a Twitter followers, so let's give him a TV show,

567
00:30:18,497 --> 00:30:21,137
Speaker 1: but without actually seeing how he is on TV. It's

568
00:30:21,137 --> 00:30:25,457
Speaker 1: just it was ill conceived and it was clearly they

569
00:30:25,497 --> 00:30:26,857
Speaker 1: got a lot of money to do this thing, three

570
00:30:26,977 --> 00:30:30,337
Speaker 1: hundred million dollars and that's exciting, and you can fire

571
00:30:30,377 --> 00:30:32,617
Speaker 1: a lot of people, but you have to have content

572
00:30:32,657 --> 00:30:35,337
Speaker 1: you have and this honestly connects to Netflix. I mean,

573
00:30:35,857 --> 00:30:38,617
Speaker 1: part of the problem is with what's declining right now

574
00:30:38,857 --> 00:30:42,177
Speaker 1: is the quality of the content. There's so much content

575
00:30:42,177 --> 00:30:44,377
Speaker 1: out there now. You have to be good, and I

576
00:30:44,417 --> 00:30:46,457
Speaker 1: know that's subjective, but you have to be good, and

577
00:30:46,497 --> 00:30:48,497
Speaker 1: it's a lot of woke crap. I just actually want

578
00:30:48,537 --> 00:30:50,657
Speaker 1: something that lets my brain relax and turn off at

579
00:30:50,697 --> 00:30:52,377
Speaker 1: the end of the day, not that tells me that,

580
00:30:52,457 --> 00:30:55,977
Speaker 1: you know, it's time for transgender youth indoctrination or something.

581
00:30:56,017 --> 00:30:57,937
Speaker 1: But anyway, and you know they'll do it in like

582
00:30:58,217 --> 00:31:01,537
Speaker 1: movies about the ninth century Viking conquest of England. I mean,

583
00:31:01,537 --> 00:31:03,697
Speaker 1: they're really they're really going all out with this stuff

584
00:31:03,737 --> 00:31:06,297
Speaker 1: these days. Crack, we'll have you back. Good to see him,

585
00:31:06,297 --> 00:31:10,937
Speaker 1: my man, Thanks for being here. Thank you. Democrats are

586
00:31:10,937 --> 00:31:13,137
Speaker 1: starting to sweat as a number of one safe house

587
00:31:13,297 --> 00:31:15,617
Speaker 1: races have moved to the toss up column and laid

588
00:31:15,657 --> 00:31:17,537
Speaker 1: his polls. But come back in a moment here with

589
00:31:17,577 --> 00:31:20,257
Speaker 1: commentary edit at the Washington Examiner, con Carol, he's going

590
00:31:20,297 --> 00:31:23,097
Speaker 1: to give us take on the coming storm. Look, you know,

591
00:31:23,177 --> 00:31:25,297
Speaker 1: I'm skeptical by nature when I first found out about

592

00:31:33,817 --> 00:31:35,777
Speaker 1: home online and then take over as a new owner.

596
00:31:36,257 --> 00:31:38,417
Speaker 1: Turns out that this is not that difficult to do.

597

Speaker 1: The FBI says it's a rapidly growing crime, and you're

00:32:14,937 --> 00:32:18,377
Speaker 1: elections draw closer and Biden's approval rating is dropping by

609
00:32:18,417 --> 00:32:20,737
Speaker 1: the day, many seats in the House and Senate the

610
00:32:20,737 --> 00:32:23,897
Speaker 1: Democrats once thought were safe seemed to be up for grabs.

611
00:32:24,257 --> 00:32:28,417
Speaker 1: Even CNN, a reliable cheerleader for Democrats, is starting to

612
00:32:28,497 --> 00:32:31,097
Speaker 1: sound the alarm bells and the possibility that Democrats could

613
00:32:31,217 --> 00:32:35,137
Speaker 1: get hammered in November. Check out this headline from CNN Politics.

614
00:32:35,177 --> 00:32:39,017
Speaker 1: The House playing field is a playing field rather sorry,

615
00:32:39,057 --> 00:32:42,377
Speaker 1: the house playing field is coming into focus and it's

616
00:32:42,457 --> 00:32:45,257
Speaker 1: not a pretty picture for Democrats. So will we see

617
00:32:45,297 --> 00:32:48,937
Speaker 1: that red wave come crashing down this November? I mean

618
00:32:48,937 --> 00:32:51,777
Speaker 1: out to discuss where we are. Commentary editor at The

619
00:32:51,777 --> 00:32:55,737
Speaker 1: Washington Examiner con Carl con good to see it, read

620
00:32:55,777 --> 00:32:58,217
Speaker 1: to be here, buddy. So look, I know we're gonna

621
00:32:58,217 --> 00:33:00,177
Speaker 1: be talking to this a lot in the months ahead,

622
00:33:00,257 --> 00:33:03,737
Speaker 1: and everyone's gonna be saying, well, it's a lifetime in politics, YadA, YadA.

623
00:33:04,057 --> 00:33:06,657
Speaker 1: The Democrats are already starting to look for the panic

624
00:33:06,697 --> 00:33:08,257
Speaker 1: button a little bit. So I want you to put

625
00:33:08,297 --> 00:33:10,497
Speaker 1: this into context. I mean, how bad is it looking

626
00:33:10,537 --> 00:33:12,537
Speaker 1: for them at this stage? Because I actually think it's

627
00:33:12,577 --> 00:33:15,617
Speaker 1: going to get worse for them too. Yeah, I mean

628
00:33:15,657 --> 00:33:19,617
Speaker 1: it definitely could. Mind's about to totally repeal Title forty two.

629
00:33:19,657 --> 00:33:22,097
Speaker 1: There's going to be a huge border crisis. There's a

630
00:33:22,097 --> 00:33:24,977
Speaker 1: lot of bad news yet to come. But even before that,

631
00:33:25,377 --> 00:33:26,977
Speaker 1: you know, we're looking at a house it's going to

632
00:33:27,057 --> 00:33:29,777
Speaker 1: lose twenty to thirty seats, which would give a strong

633
00:33:29,817 --> 00:33:34,377
Speaker 1: Republican majority in twenty twenty four. So here's the generic

634
00:33:34,537 --> 00:33:38,697
Speaker 1: ballot according to Rasmussen, or Republican versus Democrat. This congressional

635
00:33:38,737 --> 00:33:43,017
Speaker 1: ballot forty seven percent, Republican Democrat thirty nine percent. Now,

636
00:33:43,097 --> 00:33:45,737
Speaker 1: we would usually expect going into a midterm election that

637
00:33:45,777 --> 00:33:47,857
Speaker 1: the party in power, which is the Democrat party, is

638
00:33:47,857 --> 00:33:51,057
Speaker 1: going to be at something of a disadvantage. But how

639
00:33:51,057 --> 00:33:54,857
Speaker 1: does this lineup come with what we've seen before at

640
00:33:54,897 --> 00:33:57,777
Speaker 1: this stage a midterm, in the sorry midterm election, in

641
00:33:57,777 --> 00:34:01,657
Speaker 1: the first term of a new president. Are these numbers

642
00:34:01,697 --> 00:34:03,897
Speaker 1: that look like what we saw going into twenty ten

643
00:34:04,057 --> 00:34:06,377
Speaker 1: with the historic Tea party wave or could it be

644
00:34:06,417 --> 00:34:10,577
Speaker 1: even bigger? How do you engage it? It's it's bigger,

645
00:34:10,657 --> 00:34:14,217
Speaker 1: it's much bigger. The party out of power always looks good.

646
00:34:14,537 --> 00:34:18,097
Speaker 1: But on the generic ballot question, generally Republicans fare worse

647
00:34:18,217 --> 00:34:21,337
Speaker 1: than Democrats, So that the Republicans are eight points ahead

648
00:34:21,377 --> 00:34:23,977
Speaker 1: already in this point points to a huge year. There

649
00:34:23,977 --> 00:34:25,937
Speaker 1: are way ahead of where they were in twenty ten

650
00:34:26,017 --> 00:34:28,857
Speaker 1: and in twenty fourteen. So if you were just looking

651
00:34:28,857 --> 00:34:31,017
Speaker 1: at the numbers you didn't know anything else, you would

652
00:34:31,057 --> 00:34:34,257
Speaker 1: expect this coming twenty twenty two to be worse for

653
00:34:34,337 --> 00:34:37,897
Speaker 1: Democrats than twenty ten or twenty fourteen. The way here

654
00:34:38,017 --> 00:34:43,057
Speaker 1: is some of the Democrat party line starting to pull apart.

655
00:34:43,097 --> 00:34:46,257
Speaker 1: I mean, people are realizing they got a big problem here.

656
00:34:46,337 --> 00:34:50,057
Speaker 1: Here is Stephen Ratner, who's a former Obama advisor, who

657
00:34:50,097 --> 00:34:53,537
Speaker 1: was on MSNBC and he shared some numbers for the

658
00:34:53,537 --> 00:34:55,937
Speaker 1: public's ability to trust one party or the other with

659
00:34:55,977 --> 00:34:58,737
Speaker 1: a variety of topics. Watch this one, people ask which

660
00:34:58,857 --> 00:35:01,457
Speaker 1: party would you trust to handle an issue more in Congress,

661
00:35:01,977 --> 00:35:05,977
Speaker 1: and on inflation, it was the Republicans forty six to

662
00:35:06,097 --> 00:35:10,377
Speaker 1: thirty two, so I spread up fourteen points. National charity

663
00:35:10,417 --> 00:35:12,297
Speaker 1: of all things it was forty eight to thirty five,

664
00:35:12,337 --> 00:35:14,977
Speaker 1: a spread of thirteen points. And on the economy it

665
00:35:15,017 --> 00:35:17,577
Speaker 1: was forty seven to thirty six, to spread of eleven points.

666
00:35:18,017 --> 00:35:21,817
Speaker 1: And so they're simply not a belief in among the

667
00:35:21,857 --> 00:35:25,337
Speaker 1: American people that the Democrats are well equipped to handle

668
00:35:25,497 --> 00:35:28,897
Speaker 1: pretty much any problem at the moment. Unfortunately, it seems

669
00:35:28,937 --> 00:35:32,857
Speaker 1: almost like the perception is settling in across America. Democrats

670
00:35:33,337 --> 00:35:37,057
Speaker 1: not good at governing, good at whining about about January

671
00:35:37,097 --> 00:35:40,377
Speaker 1: sixth all day long, not about actually running the country.

672
00:35:41,337 --> 00:35:44,297
Speaker 1: It's well earned. Look, I mean, this is a president

673
00:35:44,377 --> 00:35:47,537
Speaker 1: who butchered the job in Afghanistans, who has no credibility

674
00:35:47,537 --> 00:35:50,337
Speaker 1: on foreign policy, so while Ukraine's not helping him, this

675
00:35:50,497 --> 00:35:53,017
Speaker 1: is a president that created the border crisis by ending

676
00:35:53,057 --> 00:35:55,457
Speaker 1: Trump's remain in Mexican policy. This is a president that

677
00:35:55,497 --> 00:35:59,457
Speaker 1: created the inflation crisis by having a huge trillion dollars

678
00:35:59,497 --> 00:36:03,057
Speaker 1: in on this bill that was completely a unipartisan All

679
00:36:03,097 --> 00:36:05,897
Speaker 1: of these problems are of his own creation. They've earned

680
00:36:06,097 --> 00:36:08,457
Speaker 1: these bad numbers and they're going to get justice in

681
00:36:08,457 --> 00:36:11,137
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two. What do you think are some of

682
00:36:11,177 --> 00:36:13,737
Speaker 1: the races Senate side or if you think one on

683
00:36:13,777 --> 00:36:17,177
Speaker 1: the House side is particularly noteworthy as a as a

684
00:36:17,217 --> 00:36:20,297
Speaker 1: bellweather as as something that's indicative of a larger trend

685
00:36:21,097 --> 00:36:23,297
Speaker 1: right now, I know we still have primaries to go with,

686
00:36:23,417 --> 00:36:26,817
Speaker 1: but in terms of contested states or contested districts, what

687
00:36:27,177 --> 00:36:30,217
Speaker 1: are you watching as Oh, if if Republicans start to

688
00:36:30,297 --> 00:36:32,897
Speaker 1: run the table with the following, it's going to be

689
00:36:32,937 --> 00:36:34,657
Speaker 1: a red wave the likes we've never seen. I mean,

690
00:36:34,657 --> 00:36:37,497
Speaker 1: what are the states you're looking at? Sure, I'm a

691
00:36:37,657 --> 00:36:40,137
Speaker 1: Senate guy from probably going to big senate state Senate

692
00:36:40,177 --> 00:36:42,937
Speaker 1: races and not House races, but I think you know,

693
00:36:42,937 --> 00:36:47,057
Speaker 1: if you look at someplace like New Hampshire or Arizona

694
00:36:47,257 --> 00:36:52,017
Speaker 1: where Hassan is barely hanging on, if that state goes red,

695
00:36:52,177 --> 00:36:53,657
Speaker 1: it's going to be just a huge year or for

696
00:36:53,697 --> 00:36:56,337
Speaker 1: the Republicans. And then if you want to stretch it

697
00:36:56,377 --> 00:36:59,177
Speaker 1: even just a little bit further, of course, in Nevada

698
00:36:59,257 --> 00:37:03,097
Speaker 1: you have Mortest Castro out there and she's falling behind.

699
00:37:03,497 --> 00:37:05,337
Speaker 1: But right next door or not right next or two

700
00:37:05,337 --> 00:37:08,057
Speaker 1: states over in Colorado, then it's up as well. And

701
00:37:08,777 --> 00:37:10,657
Speaker 1: if it's a big enough way, I think you can

702
00:37:10,737 --> 00:37:14,177
Speaker 1: see them losing in the states like Colorado too. Here

703
00:37:14,377 --> 00:37:17,977
Speaker 1: is the mainstream media or the democraticle on corporate media

704
00:37:18,017 --> 00:37:20,937
Speaker 1: as I prefer to call them, showing how worried they

705
00:37:20,977 --> 00:37:24,377
Speaker 1: are about what they're calling a Trump takeover. Of course

706
00:37:24,457 --> 00:37:26,737
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty four, based on how these mid terms, well,

707
00:37:26,737 --> 00:37:29,377
Speaker 1: they're assuming it'll be Trump. Watch this. A part of

708
00:37:29,377 --> 00:37:30,937
Speaker 1: what we have to do here in the mid term

709
00:37:31,497 --> 00:37:34,617
Speaker 1: is portray a message of unfinished business. We have to

710
00:37:34,657 --> 00:37:36,897
Speaker 1: put Trump back on the ballot. But that means that

711
00:37:36,977 --> 00:37:39,217
Speaker 1: does not mean that that we get to make every

712
00:37:39,217 --> 00:37:42,137
Speaker 1: Republican steam like Trump. It means that we have to

713
00:37:42,217 --> 00:37:46,377
Speaker 1: literally explain that if if Republicans win the House and

714
00:37:46,457 --> 00:37:49,257
Speaker 1: the Senate in twenty twenty two, they will reinstall a

715
00:37:49,297 --> 00:37:54,217
Speaker 1: Trump in twenty twenty four. I mean, first of all,

716
00:37:54,257 --> 00:37:57,097
Speaker 1: like no, but beyond that, also, that's not going to

717
00:37:57,177 --> 00:38:00,257
Speaker 1: help them going to the mid terms. They have no

718
00:38:00,297 --> 00:38:02,737
Speaker 1: other playbook, right, I mean, if you look at the

719
00:38:02,737 --> 00:38:05,177
Speaker 1: congressional calendar. All that they have left to do is

720
00:38:05,217 --> 00:38:08,217
Speaker 1: the Juniory six committee. That's the there only play that

721
00:38:08,257 --> 00:38:10,257
Speaker 1: they have. And so that's why you saw you know,

722
00:38:10,337 --> 00:38:12,657
Speaker 1: news breaking this week where they tried to shame you know,

723
00:38:12,737 --> 00:38:15,657
Speaker 1: Chip Roy and Mike Lee with text to Mark Meadows.

724
00:38:15,697 --> 00:38:18,817
Speaker 1: The only thing they have is January sixth, and so

725
00:38:18,857 --> 00:38:20,737
Speaker 1: they're gonna try to make as much hay, as much

726
00:38:20,817 --> 00:38:23,257
Speaker 1: drama as again at the January six committee, and it's

727
00:38:23,257 --> 00:38:26,737
Speaker 1: just not gonna work. Amazing to watch the solid playout.

728
00:38:26,777 --> 00:38:29,217
Speaker 1: What's your prediction. We'll play this back for you after

729
00:38:29,217 --> 00:38:32,897
Speaker 1: the election for Senate because you're a Senate guy, Senate

730
00:38:32,937 --> 00:38:35,497
Speaker 1: pick up, gop. What are we looking at? In your mind?

731
00:38:37,057 --> 00:38:42,137
Speaker 1: I say they get fifty four. Fifty four, that'd be nice,

732
00:38:42,177 --> 00:38:44,257
Speaker 1: that'd be a breaking, nice, solid majority. Or do you

733
00:38:44,257 --> 00:38:45,737
Speaker 1: want to give us a house number or you want

734
00:38:45,737 --> 00:38:48,577
Speaker 1: to hold back on that one. No, No, I'll go

735
00:38:48,577 --> 00:38:53,137
Speaker 1: ahead and say, um, twenty five. Wow, I think I

736
00:38:53,137 --> 00:38:55,457
Speaker 1: think it's gonna be more like fifty. So calm, We'll

737
00:38:55,497 --> 00:38:57,457
Speaker 1: have to see. We'll have to see. I mean, I'm

738
00:38:57,457 --> 00:39:01,057
Speaker 1: a hopeful guy. What can I tell you? Let's let's see.

739
00:39:01,097 --> 00:39:05,737
Speaker 1: Thanks so much man, good to see you anytime. When

740
00:39:05,777 --> 00:39:09,217
Speaker 1: reporters call out Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot on the soaring

741
00:39:09,257 --> 00:39:12,017
Speaker 1: crime and just dysfunction in her city, she tells them

742
00:39:12,257 --> 00:39:16,177
Speaker 1: she will not dignify their comments. Oh yeah, that's right.

743
00:39:16,537 --> 00:39:19,217
Speaker 1: We got that story coming from the Windy City and more.

744
00:39:19,457 --> 00:39:28,377
Speaker 1: In quick hits up neck, Joe Biden seems confused when

745
00:39:28,417 --> 00:39:30,657
Speaker 1: answering a question about Title forty two and the White

746
00:39:30,657 --> 00:39:34,017
Speaker 1: House doubles down on keeping America dependent on for an oil.

747
00:39:34,057 --> 00:39:36,697
Speaker 1: We have those stories to quick hit. Let's get right

748
00:39:36,777 --> 00:39:42,017
Speaker 1: to it. So Joe Biden was asked about Title ford.

749
00:39:42,097 --> 00:39:45,297
Speaker 1: Now he did. To be fair, he did clarify this today.

750
00:39:45,297 --> 00:39:47,217
Speaker 1: He was asked about this yesterday. But we do want

751
00:39:47,217 --> 00:39:48,617
Speaker 1: to show you. Oh I'm sorry, I asked about this

752
00:39:48,617 --> 00:39:51,377
Speaker 1: earlier today and then had to clarify it later in

753
00:39:51,417 --> 00:39:54,137
Speaker 1: the day. But here's what the Commander in chief sounded

754
00:39:54,137 --> 00:39:55,777
Speaker 1: like when he was asked at a a press conference about

755
00:39:55,777 --> 00:40:00,177
Speaker 1: Title forty two, and he clearly thought that he just

756
00:40:00,257 --> 00:40:01,737
Speaker 1: didn't know what the hell he's talking about. Watch this

757
00:40:04,897 --> 00:40:09,417
Speaker 1: laying no what I'm considering it is continuing to hear

758
00:40:09,497 --> 00:40:13,257
Speaker 1: from my First of all, there's going to be an

759
00:40:13,257 --> 00:40:17,817
Speaker 1: appeal by the Justice Department, because as a matter of principle,

760
00:40:17,937 --> 00:40:19,377
Speaker 1: we want to be able to be in a position

761
00:40:19,417 --> 00:40:23,897
Speaker 1: where if in fact it is strongly concluded by the

762
00:40:24,617 --> 00:40:28,457
Speaker 1: scientists that we need a Title forty two, that we

763
00:40:28,617 --> 00:40:31,057
Speaker 1: be able to do that, but there has been no

764
00:40:31,137 --> 00:40:35,457
Speaker 1: decision on extending Title forty two. You can just sort

765
00:40:35,457 --> 00:40:38,177
Speaker 1: of see the wires getting crossed in real time where

766
00:40:38,817 --> 00:40:43,297
Speaker 1: he thinks he's talking about the CDC weighing in on

767
00:40:43,337 --> 00:40:46,817
Speaker 1: the mask mandate and the DOJ bringing a challenge to

768
00:40:46,857 --> 00:40:49,937
Speaker 1: the judge in Florida who overturned it, but he actually

769
00:40:49,937 --> 00:40:52,257
Speaker 1: then gets confused with Title forty two, which is also

770
00:40:52,297 --> 00:40:54,897
Speaker 1: a CDC authority that has to do with the Southern border,

771
00:40:55,217 --> 00:40:58,817
Speaker 1: which the CDC is not currently involved in, trying to

772
00:40:58,857 --> 00:41:02,777
Speaker 1: weigh in on and have the DOJ overturned. Because it's just,

773
00:41:02,937 --> 00:41:06,577
Speaker 1: you know, just all scrambled up there, folks. He's the

774
00:41:06,577 --> 00:41:09,097
Speaker 1: commander in chief. Though Democrats thought this was really a

775
00:41:09,137 --> 00:41:14,297
Speaker 1: really good idea, Biden's climate advisor Gina McCarthy says Biden

776
00:41:14,617 --> 00:41:17,537
Speaker 1: remains absolutely committed to not moving forward with an additional

777
00:41:17,657 --> 00:41:20,937
Speaker 1: drilling on public lands. Watch this one. President Biden remains

778
00:41:21,057 --> 00:41:26,057
Speaker 1: absolutely committed to not moving forward with additional drilling on

779
00:41:26,177 --> 00:41:29,257
Speaker 1: public lands. The challenge that we faced was that we

780
00:41:29,337 --> 00:41:32,737
Speaker 1: had a court that ordered that a new lease to

781
00:41:32,777 --> 00:41:35,897
Speaker 1: be done. The Department of Energy had no choice but

782
00:41:36,017 --> 00:41:39,257
Speaker 1: to put it out. But they also find found ways

783
00:41:39,297 --> 00:41:42,217
Speaker 1: to reduce the size of that in its impact. And

784
00:41:42,257 --> 00:41:44,737
Speaker 1: we'll keep doing what we need to do to appeal

785
00:41:44,817 --> 00:41:48,137
Speaker 1: those decisions and to make our case in a court.

786
00:41:50,097 --> 00:41:52,697
Speaker 1: I mean, they keep telling you that they're going to

787
00:41:52,737 --> 00:41:55,057
Speaker 1: do everything they can to bring down the price of gas,

788
00:41:55,057 --> 00:41:59,137
Speaker 1: but they actually aren't interested in doing that. They're interested

789
00:41:59,137 --> 00:42:01,937
Speaker 1: in saying that because it's politically important for them, but

790
00:42:01,937 --> 00:42:05,017
Speaker 1: they would rather continue the charade of oh yeah, just

791
00:42:05,057 --> 00:42:08,457
Speaker 1: give us some time, will we'll figure this out when

792
00:42:08,697 --> 00:42:11,897
Speaker 1: there actually comes to decision making no interest. This is

793
00:42:11,937 --> 00:42:14,137
Speaker 1: honestly one of my favorite moments of the week. Laura

794
00:42:14,217 --> 00:42:17,537
Speaker 1: Lightfoot is a terrible mayor. It's just a fact. Okay,

795
00:42:17,537 --> 00:42:19,937
Speaker 1: it's obvious. Everybody knows this. Even Democrats know that she's

796
00:42:19,977 --> 00:42:22,977
Speaker 1: just really bad at the job. Chicago is in rough shape.

797
00:42:22,977 --> 00:42:24,697
Speaker 1: The crime is completely out of control, It's worse than

798
00:42:24,737 --> 00:42:27,337
Speaker 1: it has ever been, and there's all kinds of dysfunction

799
00:42:27,417 --> 00:42:29,337
Speaker 1: on the streets. It's not a well run city. We

800
00:42:29,417 --> 00:42:31,537
Speaker 1: know this. And here's a Redding reporter. I don't know

801
00:42:31,577 --> 00:42:34,617
Speaker 1: this guy is, who's just like you know, you're horrible

802
00:42:34,657 --> 00:42:37,137
Speaker 1: at this and you shouldn't run for reelection. Right. Here's

803
00:42:37,137 --> 00:42:39,177
Speaker 1: how that wet when he asked the mayor to her face,

804
00:42:39,777 --> 00:42:42,057
Speaker 1: every time you have a press conference, you say crime

805
00:42:42,137 --> 00:42:46,297
Speaker 1: is down, the economy is booming. Well that's not true.

806
00:42:46,337 --> 00:42:49,537
Speaker 1: But get your question, sir. Across the street, we had

807
00:42:49,577 --> 00:42:52,257
Speaker 1: a police officer on duty the victim of a hit

808
00:42:52,337 --> 00:42:56,537
Speaker 1: and run. We have Michigan Avenue, the Magnificent miles, now

809
00:42:56,657 --> 00:43:00,977
Speaker 1: referred to as the Mile of Fear. The water Tower

810
00:43:01,057 --> 00:43:04,097
Speaker 1: Place has thrown the keys back to the lender. They

811
00:43:04,097 --> 00:43:07,497
Speaker 1: say they don't want to be in Chicago anymore. Real

812
00:43:07,577 --> 00:43:11,897
Speaker 1: Chicagoans are asking me, how could you possibly even consider

813
00:43:13,097 --> 00:43:15,697
Speaker 1: running for reelection as mayor of the City of Chicago

814
00:43:15,737 --> 00:43:19,257
Speaker 1: after all the harm you've caused. Well, I disagree with

815
00:43:19,297 --> 00:43:22,817
Speaker 1: you fundamentally, and I don't think I need to address

816
00:43:22,857 --> 00:43:27,697
Speaker 1: any and dignify your comments one second further. Next question,

817
00:43:29,217 --> 00:43:32,257
Speaker 1: Notice how she doesn't even have a real response to

818
00:43:32,257 --> 00:43:35,497
Speaker 1: those allegations. Right, how about we've brought crime down in

819
00:43:35,537 --> 00:43:38,537
Speaker 1: the last six months twenty percent and we've had more

820
00:43:38,577 --> 00:43:41,177
Speaker 1: economic value. I'm making up those numbers when we're saying

821
00:43:41,217 --> 00:43:43,617
Speaker 1: if she actually had a worthwhile response, you would have.

822
00:43:44,017 --> 00:43:45,417
Speaker 1: I mean, that guy's just called you out. He's just

823
00:43:45,457 --> 00:43:47,777
Speaker 1: straight up said you're bad at your job. Someone says

824
00:43:47,777 --> 00:43:49,457
Speaker 1: you're bad at your job, and you're good at your job.

825
00:43:49,897 --> 00:43:51,537
Speaker 1: You fight back, You don't say, I'm not going to

826
00:43:51,577 --> 00:43:54,737
Speaker 1: dignify that with a response, but she is bed at

827
00:43:54,737 --> 00:43:57,537
Speaker 1: her job. Here's former Health Advisor President Joe Biden, doctor

828
00:43:57,577 --> 00:44:01,137
Speaker 1: Michael austar Home saying that, yeah, the mass mandate was

829
00:44:01,177 --> 00:44:05,257
Speaker 1: really overstated. Watched, you know, without sounding as a contrarian

830
00:44:05,617 --> 00:44:08,577
Speaker 1: or somehow I'll trying to undercut public health. You have

831
00:44:08,617 --> 00:44:11,657
Speaker 1: to know that I am a very pro respiratory protection

832
00:44:11,737 --> 00:44:16,177
Speaker 1: masking person, but that requires an in ninety five respirator.

833
00:44:16,337 --> 00:44:19,177
Speaker 1: We know it is how highly infectious this virus is,

834
00:44:19,177 --> 00:44:22,737
Speaker 1: and to use facecloth carverings or even surgical masks leaves

835
00:44:22,737 --> 00:44:26,577
Speaker 1: you still largely unprotected and that is a big challenge. Well,

836
00:44:26,617 --> 00:44:28,577
Speaker 1: if you look at the mask mandate, it was all

837
00:44:28,577 --> 00:44:31,857
Speaker 1: about the vast majority of people wearing facecloth carverings or

838
00:44:31,897 --> 00:44:34,497
Speaker 1: surgical masks, or if you're on a plane and you're

839
00:44:34,537 --> 00:44:36,617
Speaker 1: eating or drinking, you don't have to wear it at all.

840
00:44:37,017 --> 00:44:40,097
Speaker 1: I think the mask mandate has been really overstated in

841
00:44:40,177 --> 00:44:43,657
Speaker 1: terms of how much you can protect people. It sounds

842
00:44:43,697 --> 00:44:46,057
Speaker 1: like me for the last two years. And I'm not

843
00:44:46,177 --> 00:44:48,297
Speaker 1: some doctor who is an adviser to Biden, but I

844
00:44:48,337 --> 00:44:51,657
Speaker 1: just know things. Not a moron. As everything, I to

845
00:44:51,657 --> 00:44:53,857
Speaker 1: hold a line the Nose. Spin News with Bill Areley
