Obviously, the Israel 5 00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:16,680 Speaker 2: Hamas war continuing to unfold in the news. There was 6 00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:22,439 Speaker 2: a major air strike yesterday. Immediately you have those who 7 00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:26,639 Speaker 2: are sympathetic to the cause of civilization and Israel pointing 8 00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 2: out that this strike hit an area that had been 9 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:33,320 Speaker 2: laden with weapons and tunnels underground, and that the civilian 10 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:37,159 Speaker 2: human shield aspect of it was intentional. The pro Palestinian 11 00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:39,440 Speaker 2: side of things, with the pro Hamas side of things 12 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:41,320 Speaker 2: saying this is a war crime. 13 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 1: So you're going to. 14 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,559 Speaker 2: See that day in and day out as the conflict continues. 15 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 2: You also have the FBI Director, this was from actually 16 00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:53,880 Speaker 2: yesterday while we were on air on Capitol Hill, saying 17 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 2: there's a heightened risk of terror attack in the US 18 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 2: and even Democrats are starting to look at the border, 19 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 2: which we will talk about later on in the show 20 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:06,440 Speaker 2: as a major national security vulnerability because we effectively have 21 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 2: a wide open border. Also, some interesting updates from a 22 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:19,120 Speaker 2: representative comer on the Biden crime family money trail follow 23 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:23,920 Speaker 2: the money and you will learn a lot about the influence, pedling, 24 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:28,039 Speaker 2: and corruption of Biden, inc. So we shall discuss that 25 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:31,120 Speaker 2: as well later on in the program. Plus play is 26 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 2: going to have some Halloween updates. I am sure Halloween 27 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 2: over here at the Sexton residence was pretty mellow, pretty mellow. 28 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 2: So let's dive into this, look like because I think 29 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 2: that and I know there was. This story is getting 30 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 2: a lot of attention. Some individual, a student at Cornell, 31 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 2: posted threats against the Jewish community on the Internet, and 32 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 2: now they're saying he has me mental health issues, and 33 00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 2: you know, he's facing years and years in prison. I 34 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 2: don't think people really believed that he was an imminent threat, 35 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 2: but the point is you're not allowed to threaten people 36 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 2: that way using interstate commerce or interstate communications. 37 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 1: So now he's facing federal charges Cornell. 38 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 2: So it's an IVY League student saying that he was 39 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,239 Speaker 2: going to I think, you know, commit violence against the 40 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:23,080 Speaker 2: Jewish community center there at Cornell. People are looking around 41 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 2: Clay and they're saying, hold on a second, how has 42 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 2: this happened? Where in the aftermath of really the worst 43 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 2: mass casualty terror attack we've seen since nine to eleven 44 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 2: and in some ways, you know, the graphicness and the 45 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 2: viciousness of this attack is unsurpassed. I mean, you could 46 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 2: not be more evil than what we saw Hamas do 47 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 2: to Israel. These college kids play are running around and 48 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 2: they're talking about this as though these are honorable resistance fighters, 49 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 2: and you know, it's practically like the Founding Fathers against 50 00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 2: the British monarchy or something. I mean, they're completely eluded 51 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 2: and immoral on so many of these campuses about this 52 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 2: and where did these ideas come from? Where does this 53 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 2: notion of Hamas as something other than an evil death 54 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 2: cult come from? And I just wanted to turn us 55 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:18,080 Speaker 2: for a second to Elon Musk's conversation with Joe Rogan 56 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 2: on the Joe Rogan Podcast, which had some very interesting moments. 57 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 2: Elon was making the case he obviously owns x now 58 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 2: formerly Twitter, and Elon was saying something I think is 59 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 2: very important, which is that the control that the far 60 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 2: left has had of social media has promoted the flourishing 61 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 2: of hard left propaganda to the point where death cult 62 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 2: ideology is being pushed by social media, not by X 63 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 2: anymore as an entity. 64 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 1: But by other social media. This is cut two. 65 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 2: I want you to hear this exchange, and Clay, I 66 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 2: want to hear your sense of it. 67 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 3: It's almost like a death cult. 68 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: It's a death cult. No, No, that is exactly right. 69 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 4: It's essentially the extinctionists, like it's in the limit. It 70 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 4: is that they're propagating the extinction of humanity and civilization. 71 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 4: And there's some people who are like, most of the 72 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 4: time it's implicit, they don't exploit, but sometimes it's explicit. 73 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 4: Like there's a guy on the front page of New 74 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 4: York Times who literally has the thing called the extinctionist movement, 75 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:24,600 Speaker 4: and he was quoted on the front page of The 76 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 4: York Times as saying, there are eight billion people in 77 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 4: the world, but it would be better if there were none. 78 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:32,799 Speaker 1: And I'm like, well, buddy, you can start with yourself. 79 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, Claiy just they're talking about the climate 80 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,559 Speaker 2: extremes here as well. But the point is death cult 81 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 2: ideology being force fed to people on social media as 82 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 2: the dominant paradigm. 83 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 1: Yeah. 84 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 5: And I think what Elon has hit on, and it 85 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 5: is a very important, very important lesson that I think 86 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:57,280 Speaker 5: a lot of our listeners may have understood in the 87 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 5: context of their kids or their great and kids. But 88 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:05,840 Speaker 5: I think Israel has really and the Hamas situation made 89 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:11,239 Speaker 5: it almost impossible to ignore the worldview of a tiny 90 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:17,720 Speaker 5: elite cadre in San Francisco that was running Twitter was 91 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 5: they basically took. 92 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 1: Over our national discourse. 93 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:25,119 Speaker 5: And I think it's always important to what they sold 94 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,600 Speaker 5: us Buck was the idea of Twitter is giving voice 95 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:32,720 Speaker 5: to everyone. This is a great way to sample public opinion. 96 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 5: And I think what the reality is when you actually 97 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 5: dial into the data. First of all, only one in 98 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 5: fifty people, I think is the number right now ever 99 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,279 Speaker 5: post on Twitter. So you're talking about two percent of 100 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 5: the American population that is actually posting on Twitter. Not 101 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 5: very representative. And the group that does post on average 102 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 5: Buck is left of the average resident of Portland, Oregon 103 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 5: in their policys. And so what happened was you created 104 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 5: a world where if you ran I don't know, the 105 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 5: Southwest Airlines Twitter account, or if you ran bud Light, 106 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 5: you saw all of this left wing activism on your account, 107 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 5: and everybody inside of your company came to believe that 108 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,919 Speaker 5: the goal of the company when it came to marketing, 109 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:29,840 Speaker 5: should be to make Twitter happy. How does victorious secret 110 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:31,840 Speaker 5: for instance, Buck, which we talked about a little bit. 111 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 5: How do they go from we want gorgeous women wearing 112 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 5: our product to sell it to the entire world. We're 113 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 5: going to have a fashion show where some of the 114 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 5: best looking women in the world walk out in the lingerie, 115 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 5: and everybody understands that most women don't look like that, 116 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:53,719 Speaker 5: just like every man understands that most people aren't as big, 117 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 5: strong and fast as pro athletes that sell us all 118 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 5: tennis shoes, right like, you're not going to look like 119 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 5: a stud basketball player probably when you wear athletic shorts 120 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 5: and tennis shoes, but you're you know, you're avatar. You're 121 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 5: hoping to aspire to that. It's aspirational. It's what marketing is. 122 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 1: How do we get here? 123 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 5: And how you and I have been I think on 124 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,680 Speaker 5: some level on the forefront, certainly I ran OutKick with 125 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 5: the idea being to a large extent, social media is 126 00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 5: not real. I'm going to speak to all the people 127 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 5: out there who understand that men and women are different. 128 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 5: But there were a lot of people who bought in 129 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 5: and then they rig the game to make it seem 130 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 5: even more like they were representative of the American public. 131 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 5: And this is such a massive story. And I give 132 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 5: credit for Evon putting his money where his mouth is 133 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 5: and telling it. 134 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 2: Well, you know, you look at at history and radical 135 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 2: movements that sees power often lack broad support. Correct after 136 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 2: the fact, they'll tell you they have a lot of support. 137 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 2: Even the Bolsheviks, for example, in the Soviet Revolution, the 138 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 2: name is major oraitarian or a majority. 139 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 1: That's what a Bolshevik is. 140 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 2: They were never a majority of support among the Russian people. 141 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 2: They were a left wing faction. 142 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 5: The German fifty Revolutionaries that took over the whole island. 143 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 2: The Germans sent Lenin almost like a virus into Russia 144 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 2: at exactly the right time in a locked down train car, right, They're. 145 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: Like, hey, we're just gonna let them go through. 146 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 2: So this notion that because an ideology catches on and 147 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 2: is and the powerful abel to implement it somehow means 148 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 2: public that has public support is obviously untrue. And it's 149 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 2: a huge problem. And in the context of the social 150 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,959 Speaker 2: media era, and this is where we see, you know, 151 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 2: how do you have these pro Hamas lunatics running around 152 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:49,479 Speaker 2: American campus as well? They're getting most of their information 153 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 2: in the digital realm from social media applications and you 154 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 2: know from streaming, et cetera. And Elon said in this 155 00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:01,200 Speaker 2: interview with Joe Rogan that if you look, San Francisco 156 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,200 Speaker 2: is the most far left part of the entire United States, right, 157 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 2: San francis we farlost and the ideology of San Francisco, 158 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:15,439 Speaker 2: via Silicon Valley products was beamed, if you will, into 159 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 2: the hands and into the brains of America's youth, particularly 160 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 2: the last decade, certainly of the last twenty years, in 161 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 2: a way that is unprecedented in human history. 162 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 1: This is cut one. Play this one. 163 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,719 Speaker 4: If you've walked around downtown San Francisco, right near the 164 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 4: XFKA Twitter headquarters, it's a zombie apocalypse. I mean it's rough. 165 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 4: Now you have to say, well, what philosophy led to 166 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 4: that outcome? And that philosophy was being piped to earth, 167 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 4: you know, philosophy that would be ordinarily quite niche and 168 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:48,079 Speaker 4: geographically constrained, so that that sort of the fallout area 169 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:53,840 Speaker 4: would be limited, or is effectively given an information a weapon, 170 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 4: information technology weapon to propagate what is essentially a mind 171 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 4: virus to the rest of Earth. And the outcome of 172 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 4: that mind virus is very clear. If you walk around 173 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 4: the streets of downtown San Francisco. It is the end 174 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 4: of civilization. 175 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 2: Now, can I just say, Clay, I mean, I think 176 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 2: it's brilliant, the end of civilization. We've been talking about 177 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 2: the fight of Israeli civilization versus the barbarism of Hamas, 178 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 2: and I just hope everyone can see the connection that 179 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 2: we're making here, which is, how do you have American 180 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 2: college kids siding with barbarism, the death cult, which is Hamas. 181 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 1: Well, you have the. 182 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 2: Far left enclaves in this case San Francisco and the 183 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 2: Bay Area in total dominance of the information apparatus in 184 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 2: this country. And that's however, wakes up and all of 185 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:44,080 Speaker 2: a sudden you have all these left wing college campus 186 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 2: kids who are pro Hamas. By the way, Hamas hates 187 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 2: all these kids. Yes, Hamas would hate all of them. 188 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 5: Let me also hit you with this book because I 189 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 5: flagged this yesterday. This is from Sarah Fisher at Axios. 190 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 5: Because not just Twitter, right, you can say, well, I'll 191 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 5: keep my kids off Twitter. Instagram is rife with this TikTok. 192 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 5: In particular, there have been nearly four times the number 193 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 5: of views of TikTok posts using the hashtag Stand with 194 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 5: Palestine compared globally to post using the hashtag stand with 195 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,319 Speaker 5: Israel in the past two weeks. 196 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 1: So four x. 197 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 5: So if you're out there and you're thinking to yourself, Hey, 198 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:29,439 Speaker 5: you know, how is my twelve or thirteen year old 199 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 5: grandkid or kid getting information on Israel Palestine? I would 200 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:38,199 Speaker 5: love for them to be listening to this show. I 201 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 5: hope that some of them are reading OutKick. I know 202 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 5: that all of them are on TikTok and so I 203 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 5: was actually talking with my fifteen year old yesterday about 204 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 5: this because he loved sports, and he came to me 205 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 5: and he said, hey, Dad, I saw that this player 206 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 5: was going to be starting in this game and my 207 00:11:56,760 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 5: friends were texting it to me because for fantasy football purposes, 208 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 5: and it was just a troll account. 209 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:03,839 Speaker 1: And I said, no, that that's not. 210 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 5: Real, and he said, you know, Dad, and my fifteen 211 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 5: year old's sharp, he said, Dad, kids my age have 212 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 5: almost no idea what's real and what's fake on the Internet. 213 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,560 Speaker 5: And this is before and this is where it really 214 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 5: gets scary. This is before AI takes off, because in 215 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 5: an AI world, you're going to be able to create 216 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 5: fake videos of basically anyone saying anything and being able 217 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 5: to distinguish what's real and what's fake is going to 218 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 5: become almost impossible. So the algorithms buck become even more important. Remember, 219 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 5: China owns TikTok. Why would China want Palestine to be 220 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 5: four x potentially trending on on TikTok? Well, because America 221 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,680 Speaker 5: is aligned with Israel and China now is aligned with 222 00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,959 Speaker 5: Russia and with Iran, And you basically have a new 223 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 5: form of propaganda which is getting infected into young kids' brains. 224 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 5: The woke mind virus is a great way to describe it. 225 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 5: But it's not unique to Twitter, it's not unique to Facebook, 226 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 5: it's not unique to any one particular social media platform. 227 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 1: But it is the case that the. 228 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:25,080 Speaker 5: Success of America and American exceptionalism is being destroyed by 229 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,439 Speaker 5: the woke mind virus. And I just thought it was 230 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 5: interesting four x. If you're a kid and you're fourteen, 231 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 5: and you're getting news on Israel and Palestine, your four 232 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:35,960 Speaker 5: times is likely to see pro Palestine videos on TikTok. 233 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 2: Well, this is why we have the marches that you're 234 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 2: seeing and the anti Semitic rhetoric that you're seeing. It 235 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:47,080 Speaker 2: is because these ideas are being piped in, and they've 236 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 2: been piped in for a long time, absent the advantage 237 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 2: in the information space that the Palestinian side of this 238 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 2: has on social media specifically, you just gave some of 239 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:01,559 Speaker 2: the stats. I think it'd be much easier for people 240 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 2: to see. Hamas just just did its version of nine 241 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 2: to eleven against Israel. This is a moment of moral 242 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:11,680 Speaker 2: clarity for anybody who is capable of moral clarity. 243 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:13,559 Speaker 1: A lot of people have been bringing. 244 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:18,199 Speaker 5: Eighty percent of all the support is on TikTok for Palestine. 245 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, and now you're starting to see and that's why 246 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 2: I thought that Elon interviewed why did he buy Twitter? 247 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 2: He viewed the left wing dominance, far left dominance of Twitter. 248 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 2: He said this in the individual rogan Wich, I'll say 249 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 2: it was very interesting as a threat to civilization itself, 250 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 2: because horrible ideas are given information dominance in the sort 251 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 2: of information battle space, or given dominance of placement, and 252 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 2: that has really, really terrible consequences for society and for 253 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 2: civilization itself. So these are big issues. Come back into 254 00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 2: this here in just a moment. 255 00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 1: Stay with us. 256 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 2: Eight hundred and two A two two eight A two 257 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 2: if you want to weigh in on some of what 258 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:01,800 Speaker 2: we were just discussing, support you US funded resources in 259 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 2: oil and gas assets.

I would 277 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 5: bet might venture to say that there are some of 278 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 5: you out there a little bit hungover, maybe filling the 279 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 5: effects of a night of celebratory Halloween revelry. What's crazy 280 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 5: is we are now we've talked about this from a 281 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 5: political perspective, twenty three days, I believe, twenty two days 282 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 5: away from a very early Thanksgiving November twenty third. There's 283 00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 5: a lot of different storylines that still have to play 284 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 5: out between now Thanksgiving and on into Christmas. You will 285 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 5: be hearing the Mariah Carey all I want for Christmas 286 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,960 Speaker 5: song everywhere? When do we go ahead and make the 287 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 5: switch to full time Christmas music on this program? 288 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 1: Is it December first? 289 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 5: I think I believe it is December first where everything 290 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:55,000 Speaker 5: becomes Christmas related. Second week, Okay, we used it for 291 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 5: sports talk radio. Have to go to all Christmas music 292 00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 5: on December first, because still in this day and age, 293 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 5: people are so obsessed with Christmas music that it becomes 294 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 5: the number one rated format of radio for all of 295 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 5: December just crushes everybody else. 296 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 1: So that is not very far away. 297 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:16,879 Speaker 5: But Buck, I wanted to hit you with something that 298 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:22,240 Speaker 5: is not necessarily top of mind, but I think could 299 00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 5: be really really significant if this Israel and Hamas issue 300 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 5: continues into twenty twenty four, and that is the toss 301 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 5: up state of Michigan. Michigan I believe, according to the 302 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 5: Tallly was won by about one hundred and fifty thousand votes, 303 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 5: if I am not mistaken in the in the twenty 304 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 5: twenty election, and before that, Trump won what by like 305 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,639 Speaker 5: fifteen thousand votes in twenty sixteen. I mean, it was 306 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:58,360 Speaker 5: a tiny pinprick that he won that state. Flip back 307 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 5: to Biden. I don't know how many people are aware 308 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:04,480 Speaker 5: of this, certainly all of you listening out in Michigan are. 309 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:06,840 Speaker 5: I would not have been if my wife were not 310 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 5: from Michigan and I had not spent a lot of 311 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 5: time up there. 312 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 1: There's a huge Arab population in Michigan. 313 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,520 Speaker 2: Well, the dear Muslim Muslim population were being in particular 314 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 2: hundreds of thousands. 315 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, yes, and around the number is one hundred and 316 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:28,359 Speaker 5: fifty thousand voters of Muslim descent voted in the twenty 317 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:31,040 Speaker 5: twenty election in the state of Michigan. You might be saying, okay, well, 318 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:35,920 Speaker 5: that's interesting. That's actually the margin of victory for Biden, 319 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:43,119 Speaker 5: and they overwhelmingly broke for Biden. There right now is 320 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:48,639 Speaker 5: a poll out saying that that voter group, that Arab 321 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 5: voter group, has around a seventeen percent approval rating for 322 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,119 Speaker 5: Joe Biden. So I just want to lay out a 323 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 5: scenario here for all of you to be thinking about 324 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 5: as we move closer to twenty twenty four. Let's say 325 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 5: that we've got Trump v. Biden a rematch. Let's say 326 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 5: that you've got somebody like Cornell West, who's on the 327 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:15,359 Speaker 5: left that is saying Israel is to blame here. The 328 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:20,120 Speaker 5: Palestinians are the aggrieved party. And let's say a lot 329 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 5: of those voters who otherwise were supporting Joe Biden Arab background, 330 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 5: Palestinian background, either vote for somebody else or don't show up. 331 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 5: And there's also a large Jewish population in Michigan. Let's 332 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 5: say that Donald Trump, and this is not crazy, maybe 333 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 5: ten or twenty thousand Jewish. 334 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:43,439 Speaker 1: Voters switch and vote for Trump. 335 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 5: That could be the difference in Michigan by itself, and 336 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 5: that could be the difference in the election itself, which 337 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:52,119 Speaker 5: is kind of wild to think about. 338 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 1: I think the. 339 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:59,000 Speaker 2: Israel Hamas War will be over long before the height 340 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:00,879 Speaker 2: of the election cycle. For twenty twenty four, So I 341 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 2: would take that into account. I think that people will 342 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:07,719 Speaker 2: be looking at a lot of other things as well 343 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 2: as things come along. But one thing you do have 344 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:14,679 Speaker 2: right now that is starting to unfold, Clay, is the 345 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:20,120 Speaker 2: prospect of primary challenges, Yes, for members of the squads 346 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 2: specifically or far left congressional Democrats being primaried by their 347 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 2: own side over now, that I think is going to happen. 348 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 2: I think that there will be. You know, the machinery 349 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 2: of the Democrat Party is looking at this and is 350 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 2: basically coming back and saying this is too much of 351 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 2: a liability. I mean, here's a story. It's a Washington 352 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:49,879 Speaker 2: Post story, Squad members face Democratic primary challenges over Israel's stances. 353 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:53,720 Speaker 2: And they even mention a Saint Louis County prosecutor named 354 00:20:53,720 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 2: Wesley Bell who has dropped his challenge to Senator Josh Hawley. 355 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 2: He's gonna run against Holly so he can primary Congresswoman 356 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 2: Corey Bush. 357 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:09,360 Speaker 1: So think about this. 358 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 2: This is somebody who has just decided, oh, I'm not 359 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 2: going to try it now. Maybe there's other considerations here. 360 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:16,920 Speaker 2: Maybe he had no chance against was very strong, but yes, 361 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:22,159 Speaker 2: still put that aside. He's decided to drop entirely trying 362 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:26,800 Speaker 2: to make headway against Josh Holly to defeat Corey Bush, 363 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:30,879 Speaker 2: who is a very outspoken black female member of the 364 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 2: Democratic Caucus, Democrat congresswoman. And you know, this is what 365 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 2: I think you will like the general election stuff. You're 366 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:42,160 Speaker 2: talking about that very well, Look, how play, how long 367 00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:44,479 Speaker 2: does this war go on? What are the casualties? Are 368 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:46,440 Speaker 2: their follow on terror attect? I mean, there's a lot 369 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 2: of variables right that could affect those perceptions. But we've 370 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:52,120 Speaker 2: been talking about this from the very beginning. 371 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,159 Speaker 1: There's the Joe Biden wing of the. 372 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:59,480 Speaker 2: Democrat Party, which is at least ostensibly and in the 373 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:04,480 Speaker 2: main supportive of Israel, which is why Biden came out, 374 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 2: gave a speech he did, et cetera. But there's this 375 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:11,080 Speaker 2: hard left contingent of the Democrat Party that has become 376 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 2: so vocal and in the social media era, gets so 377 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:17,439 Speaker 2: much attention. It's a problem like the Prohamas wing of 378 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 2: the Democrat Party is a problem for the Biden wing 379 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:21,480 Speaker 2: of the party. 380 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:21,919 Speaker 1: No doubt. 381 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 5: And by the way, building on what you said New 382 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 5: York Times today in suburbs of New York primary fight, 383 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 5: Bruce over Bowman's stance on Israel. There's a big article 384 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:36,520 Speaker 5: about the Pittsburgh area district that has been represented by 385 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,879 Speaker 5: a relatively I think thirty five year old black woman. 386 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 5: Front page of the Wall Street Journal today. Again, this 387 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 5: is me, old man print Democrats fractures on Israel laid 388 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:52,120 Speaker 5: bare by the war that is on the front page, 389 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:55,480 Speaker 5: and it talks about how direct these battles have become. 390 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,359 Speaker 5: And you can hear me flipping around the pages. I 391 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,920 Speaker 5: kind of was stunned. I somehow missed some of this. 392 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 5: Josh Gottheimer, who is a centrist, went after everybody who 393 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:11,960 Speaker 5: refused to vote to condemn Hamas and said, listen to 394 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:15,639 Speaker 5: this book on Thursday. I can't believe this hasn't gotten 395 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 5: more attention, because you know, every time there's a Republican 396 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 5: civil war, it's all it's everywhere, right, Oh, Republicans there 397 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 5: at the low party anymore. They can't agree on anything. 398 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 5: Josh Gottheimer tweeted that the fifteen Democrats who didn't vote 399 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 5: for the resolution condemning Hamas were quote despicable and do 400 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 5: not speak for our party. I'm reading from the Wall 401 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:48,440 Speaker 5: Street Journal. In response, one of those fifteen Democrats, Andre 402 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 5: Carson of Indiana called Gottheimer a coward, a punk, and 403 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 5: invited him to settle their differences physically. 404 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 1: Who did you see this? I didn't see this until 405 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:04,480 Speaker 1: I read it this morning. 406 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 5: And so the fight over Israel and Hamas inside of 407 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 5: the Democrat Party has now accelerated to the point where 408 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:20,399 Speaker 5: one Democrat is saying, fight me to another Democrat over 409 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 5: what they're putting out on social media. And I do 410 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 5: think this is problematic. Now you're right in that, Hey, 411 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 5: what's the time frame on this going to be? But 412 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:36,920 Speaker 5: it definitely remember elon Omar almost lost in her Minnesota district. 413 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:38,879 Speaker 5: I think she only won by a couple one hundred 414 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 5: votes in a primary challenge. I think a lot of 415 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:46,639 Speaker 5: these squad members are going to face very significant Democrat 416 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:52,880 Speaker 5: opposition in their districts. And Buck, I actually think, well, 417 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 5: this is a good question for you because you've got 418 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:59,840 Speaker 5: the the CIA background. If you were setting we feel 419 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:04,120 Speaker 5: that Ukraine and Russia is just now set in a 420 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 5: you know, basically a stalemate, right, It's going to exist 421 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:11,159 Speaker 5: for years until something gets resolved. You think is the 422 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 5: Ukraine Russia is unlikely to be resolved before the twenty 423 00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 5: twenty four election that faired. 424 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:19,879 Speaker 1: Almost almost no chance. Okay, it'll be resolved. 425 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:23,400 Speaker 5: Over under how long does Israel Hamas and the tension 426 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 5: that it has unlocked in the Middle East remain a 427 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 5: focal point? 428 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:32,160 Speaker 1: Is this a six month story to you? Three month story? 429 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,919 Speaker 5: Obviously the tension in the Middle East is not going away, 430 00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 5: But this particular, this particular terror attack and the response 431 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 5: goes on for how long in your mind if you 432 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:42,120 Speaker 5: were assessing it. 433 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:44,639 Speaker 2: I mean, just my sense is and I could I 434 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 2: could be way off. I'm obviously not an IDF military planner. 435 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:50,919 Speaker 2: I think that this. I think their campaign will be 436 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:51,679 Speaker 2: done within six. 437 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:54,680 Speaker 5: To eight weeks, so by the end of the year, 438 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:58,399 Speaker 5: you would think that this IDF response, at least to 439 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 5: this initial terror attack would be complete. I think, yeah, probably, 440 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 5: and next summer I think there'll be very little discussion 441 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:09,280 Speaker 5: unless there's some other, you know, major attack conflagration in 442 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 5: the at least I don't think that this will be 443 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:14,439 Speaker 5: And look look at how much Afghanistan played the Afghanistan 444 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,399 Speaker 5: withdrawal played in the twenty twenty two midterms. Almost not 445 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,920 Speaker 5: at all, almost not at all. I mean you barely 446 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,240 Speaker 5: even heard about it, even though we had all those 447 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:24,920 Speaker 5: visuals of people at the airport, even though we lost 448 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 5: ten Marines. So that suicide bomber, even with Biden administration, 449 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:32,680 Speaker 5: blew up a car with a guy somebody in it. 450 00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:35,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, just you know, saying that, oh there are 451 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:39,680 Speaker 1: suicide members a total screw up. Anyway. 452 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, this is didn't didn't factor into 453 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:45,040 Speaker 2: twenty twenty two. So I just think that you're you know, 454 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 2: the the Israelis are going to go in. They're probably 455 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:51,640 Speaker 2: going to have six to eight weeks of operations against Hamas. 456 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 2: That would be my that would be what I would think, 457 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:57,000 Speaker 2: based on the size and the situation they're facing. They'll 458 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,639 Speaker 2: be humanitarian stuff afterwards, and there'll be a lot of 459 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 2: you know, UN meetings and resolutions and condemnations. But I 460 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,199 Speaker 2: don't think this is I don't think this is a 461 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:11,120 Speaker 2: top five issue for the electorate. I don't even think 462 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 2: it's a top ten issue for the electorate absent absent 463 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 2: a major terror attack on US soil, which we'll talk 464 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:21,200 Speaker 2: more about in the third hour. But there are warnings 465 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 2: from the FBI. Now, you know, is this a fight 466 00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 2: with Israel and Helmas and limited to it, or does 467 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:32,639 Speaker 2: this become essentially jihad two point zero like what we 468 00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:34,639 Speaker 2: saw in one point zero being nine to eleven in 469 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 2: the aftermath, does this come and turn into something much larger? 470 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:42,439 Speaker 2: I don't think that that happens, but nobody can predict 471 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:42,919 Speaker 2: the future. 472 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:46,680 Speaker 5: I think the one hundred and fifty thousand or so 473 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:53,400 Speaker 5: largely Biden supporting Muslim voters in Michigan, this will impact 474 00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:54,399 Speaker 5: their turnout. 475 00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,320 Speaker 2: For but Claire, Remember they remember what the White House 476 00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 2: does though, right they say, you know you have Korean 477 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 2: Jean working in Oh, we're so concerned about Islamophobia. 478 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 4: Right. 479 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 2: They they do this, They play both sides on this 480 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 2: issue a little bit enough that they give themselves the 481 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 2: cover from the White House so they don't alienate that, 482 00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:17,160 Speaker 2: you know, the the voter base in say a place 483 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 2: like Michigan and specifically Deerborn. Michigan has a very large 484 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 2: Muslim and Arab Muslim population. So you know, I don't 485 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:27,920 Speaker 2: know if they really blame like I think they also 486 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:30,679 Speaker 2: recognize the reality of American politics. Is what's Biden going 487 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 2: to say He's going to side with Hamas. No, They're 488 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:36,639 Speaker 2: going to make noises about humanitarian concerns. They're gonna make 489 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 2: noises about the need to be careful with civilian targets, 490 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 2: which they're already doing. So, you know, I don't know 491 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 2: that they blame Biden, like I don't think that the 492 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 2: voters in you know, I don't think that the voters 493 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 2: you're talking about expect this White House to sound like 494 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 2: Rashida to leave, you know what I mean, I don't 495 00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 2: think that. 496 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,480 Speaker 1: I get that. I think they could. 497 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 5: They didn't expect Biden to be as pro Israel as 498 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:03,480 Speaker 5: he has been. 499 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:07,800 Speaker 2: Really, I think so, I don't know, I mean, even 500 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:09,920 Speaker 2: go back and look at obama speeches on Israel, and 501 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 2: Obama was particularly like ISRAELI is new that Obama was 502 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 2: not on their tea, but you know that he had 503 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 2: a lot of very He was probably the most pro 504 00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 2: Palestinian president certainly in my lifetime. 505 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 1: I mean, I can't think of anybody else. 506 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 2: And and but you know, the USA to Israel continued, 507 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 2: and you know, US collaborative relationship with Israel continued. I mean, 508 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:36,280 Speaker 2: so there's a little bit of a bipartisan consensus that 509 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 2: you know, it's almost like medicare spending. 510 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 1: It just keeps happening, It keeps happening, you know what 511 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 1: I mean. 512 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that It's an interesting topic to me. 513 00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 5: It's it's like everybody thinks that you're on their side 514 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 5: until there's a fracture and this identity politics coalition gets 515 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:55,120 Speaker 5: challenged and you realize that it requires a hard choice 516 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 5: and that there is not an ability to say that 517 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 5: you're on both the side of Israel palse and everybody 518 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:03,160 Speaker 5: has to choose in some way. I also think that 519 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:07,280 Speaker 5: there's a it's very clear with with the Democrat base 520 00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 5: that the thing, the current thing, whatever it is, can 521 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 5: change it. You know, you know, look at how they're 522 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 5: trying to mold in and I want to talk about 523 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 5: this more Ukraine and Israel. 524 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 2: Although these are like these are very similar issues, they're 525 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 2: not very similar issues. But the current thing could change 526 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 2: to be BLM three point zero by the time we 527 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 2: get to well, they'll certainly make that attempt. 528 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 5: I would I would wager a lot of money that 529 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:32,840 Speaker 5: BLM will come rising back up out of the ashes 530 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:37,040 Speaker 5: come June and July to argue that cops are racist again. 531 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:39,720 Speaker 2: And threats of threats against our democracy. And so you know, 532 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 2: I don't know that that Hamas is going to be 533 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 2: particularly high on the radar when these voters actually go 534 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:46,960 Speaker 2: to casser ballots, but. 535 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: What we shall see for sure? 536 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:50,239 Speaker 2: What do you think, By the way, if you live 537 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 2: in Michigan, if you have any thoughts on this one 538 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 2: eight hundred and two eighty two two eight A two, 539 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:57,720 Speaker 2: you know firearm sales are up of last several weeks 540 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 2: because of the threat of violence and instability because of 541 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 2: these events in the Middle East, and also people have 542 00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 2: seen things going on where they realize they want to 543 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 2: be able to defend themselves. There's a spike in gun 544 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:10,880 Speaker 2: sales as a result of this, and with gun ownership 545 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 2: comes a responsibility to learn how to use your firearms 546 00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 2: safely and effectively. Training is key, but it's not always 547 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:20,400 Speaker 2: easy to get to the range, which is why you 548 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:22,800 Speaker 2: should have a Mantis X.

So this doesn't surprise me, but it 580 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:09,840 Speaker 6: tells us what the future of America may look like 581 00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:14,720 Speaker 6: unless changes are made, unless there's a reckoning now with 582 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:19,320 Speaker 6: how universities have become a kind of their dishterma. The 583 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:24,400 Speaker 6: German Nazi newspaper that espoused anti Semitism, I mean my 584 00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 6: own students. I taught at Harvard for fifty years. Thirty 585 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 6: three student groups blamed the rapes, murders, beheadings on Israel 586 00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 6: before Israeli himpired a shot in response Allan that it was. 587 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 5: Are you hearing what Bucke and I have been discussing, 588 00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:44,480 Speaker 5: what the lingering impact of this might be, how long 589 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:49,400 Speaker 5: the Hamas Israel current issue might exist. But are you 590 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:51,960 Speaker 5: hearing from a lot of people? You spent much of 591 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 5: your career on the left. Have people come to you 592 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:57,040 Speaker 5: and said, hey, you know what, maybe you were right 593 00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,000 Speaker 5: about a lot of the things that you've been saying. 594 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 5: Who are traditional on the left? And do you think 595 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:06,480 Speaker 5: Jewish voters in particular may be more open to understanding 596 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 5: that they are not in much alliance as much alliance 597 00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:13,080 Speaker 5: as they thought with the left in this country. 598 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,239 Speaker 6: Oh, I think that's definitely happening. Now do they have 599 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 6: a home in the Republican Party, that's less certain. So 600 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:24,600 Speaker 6: I think a lot of Jews feel abandoned and homeless politically. 601 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:31,200 Speaker 6: Certainly they don't identify with the progressive woke squad or 602 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,720 Speaker 6: people on the hard left, or the majority of young 603 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:41,560 Speaker 6: Democrat students who today oppose Israel and support Hamas. And remember, 604 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,840 Speaker 6: we're not talking about supporting the Palestinians. We're talking about 605 00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:47,759 Speaker 6: supporting the group that has done the most harm to 606 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:52,240 Speaker 6: the Palestinians, namely, have mask Hamas killed, the Palestinian leaders, 607 00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:57,520 Speaker 6: engaged in a coup, has created horrors for the Palestinian 608 00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,200 Speaker 6: people in Gaza. So you know, these are not pro 609 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:05,719 Speaker 6: Palestinian demonstrations, they're anti Semitic, anti Israel demonstrations. I document 610 00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:12,359 Speaker 6: that in my book The War against the Jews, and 611 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 6: it goes back in time. Really really, the significant event 612 00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:22,240 Speaker 6: was the horrible police killing of George Floyd that caused 613 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:25,759 Speaker 6: the reckoning and a changing of curriculum of the admission criteria. 614 00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:30,719 Speaker 6: Hundreds of millions of dollars were spent building up administrations 615 00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:38,680 Speaker 6: and administry tours for this so called diversity, equity and inclusion, 616 00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:41,920 Speaker 6: which has turned out to be lack of diversity, just 617 00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:46,560 Speaker 6: diversity based on skin color, not on on ideas, lack 618 00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:53,000 Speaker 6: of equality and exclusion of Jews, Christians, patriotic Americans. 619 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:56,960 Speaker 2: We're speaking of Professor Alan Dershowitz's book coming out Warwick City. 620 00:35:57,280 --> 00:36:01,880 Speaker 2: He has multiple federal criminal trials outstands. What have you 621 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:05,320 Speaker 2: seen so far in this DC trial from Judge chuck 622 00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:08,360 Speaker 2: In and do you think that that's actually on track 623 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,360 Speaker 2: to be tried before the election. 624 00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:14,720 Speaker 6: Yes, and there'll be a conviction. They couldn't have gotten 625 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:18,439 Speaker 6: a better judge. The prosecutors somebody with a long, long 626 00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:23,960 Speaker 6: history of a very strong bias in favor of the 627 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:27,760 Speaker 6: Democratic Party and against people like Trump, And they couldn't 628 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:33,479 Speaker 6: have gotten a better venue for a jury. The people 629 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:36,160 Speaker 6: picked for this jury will hate Trump, so there will 630 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:39,319 Speaker 6: be a conviction without a doubt. You know, they would 631 00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 6: convict a ham sandwich if it had the name Trump 632 00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:44,080 Speaker 6: on it. The question is will leave me an appeal 633 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:48,240 Speaker 6: before the election. My prediction is there'll be a conviction 634 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:51,880 Speaker 6: before the election. The appeal will reverse the conviction, but 635 00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:54,319 Speaker 6: it will be too late to influence the election. This 636 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:57,200 Speaker 6: is election interference. This is an attempt to try to 637 00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 6: influence the election. But I'm not a Trump supporter. I 638 00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:03,799 Speaker 6: have a constitutional right to vote against some as many 639 00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:05,960 Speaker 6: of your listeners have a constitutional right to vote for 640 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:07,840 Speaker 6: him or against him. But I want a fair election. 641 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:10,440 Speaker 6: I don't want election with a thumb of the Justice 642 00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:13,279 Speaker 6: Department on the scale, or with people trying to get 643 00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:17,160 Speaker 6: him disqualified. Under the fourteenth Amendment, he has to be 644 00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:19,800 Speaker 6: able to run, and if he wins, he wins. If hees, 645 00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 6: he loses, tarn square. But if we're not to become 646 00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:28,719 Speaker 6: a banana Republic, we can't allow the incumbent administration to 647 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:34,400 Speaker 6: use a criminal justice system to disqualify or discriminate against 648 00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:42,279 Speaker 6: the strongest candidate against him. I have a podcast called 649 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:47,200 Speaker 6: Their Show in which I get that bananas and we're 650 00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:50,040 Speaker 6: up to six on a scale of ten, and if 651 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:52,640 Speaker 6: he's convicted in any of these trials, we're going to 652 00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:54,960 Speaker 6: get up to seven and eight. And that's not what 653 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:58,200 Speaker 6: America is about. In America, we elect our presidents. We 654 00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:01,160 Speaker 6: don't have the Justice Department. There are secretaries of state 655 00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:02,080 Speaker 6: decides who can run. 656 00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 5: We're talking to Alan Dershowitz, a legendary, a lawyer. What 657 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:10,640 Speaker 5: do you think would happen if Judge Chuckkin or anyone 658 00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:15,719 Speaker 5: else tries to put Trump in jail based on violation 659 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:18,840 Speaker 5: of a gag order? Do you think that would immediately? 660 00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:20,640 Speaker 5: Do you think they'd be willing to do it? 661 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:21,319 Speaker 1: How would you? 662 00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:24,040 Speaker 5: I know you're talking about banana republics here. To me, 663 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:27,160 Speaker 5: that's even crazier. And so that's part one of this question. 664 00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:31,160 Speaker 5: Part two, what do you think if Trump is convicted 665 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:33,719 Speaker 5: they would try to do? Would they try to put 666 00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:37,480 Speaker 5: him in jail pending his appeal? Like, how do you 667 00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:41,200 Speaker 5: see this process playing out? Because that's just crazy talk 668 00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:44,600 Speaker 5: to me, without any precedent to even contemplate. 669 00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:48,520 Speaker 6: I agree with you, and I think that cooler minds 670 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:51,160 Speaker 6: would prevail, particularly when we have appellate courts. If you 671 00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,800 Speaker 6: will put in jail for violating a gag order, that 672 00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:56,960 Speaker 6: would be immediately appealable and it would be reversed. He's 673 00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:00,800 Speaker 6: not going to jail until after the election. If he's defeated, 674 00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:04,520 Speaker 6: it's possible he would go to jail even if he's elected. 675 00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:08,719 Speaker 6: You have two state cases, New York and Georgia, and 676 00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:13,359 Speaker 6: the President can't grant the parton in state cases, and 677 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:17,400 Speaker 6: Georgia has mandatory prison term. So it's conceivable, but it's 678 00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:21,080 Speaker 6: unlikely that a person could be elected president of the 679 00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:24,680 Speaker 6: United States and also be sentenced to prison. You know, 680 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:27,480 Speaker 6: we did have a mayor of Boston who was serving time. 681 00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:30,719 Speaker 6: We had Eugene V. Debs and ran for president in 682 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:35,120 Speaker 6: nineteen twenty I think who was in jail for opposing 683 00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:39,359 Speaker 6: the war, the First World War. So anything's possible, but 684 00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:42,200 Speaker 6: I think it's unlikely. I think the likeliest result is 685 00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:48,000 Speaker 6: we'll see two, perhaps three convictions, no jail pending appeal, 686 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:51,640 Speaker 6: and the convictions will be reversed an appeal after the election. 687 00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:55,719 Speaker 6: But the convictions may themselves influence the election and give 688 00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:59,360 Speaker 6: rise to new claims that our election system is unfair. 689 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,040 Speaker 1: So you are standing on principle. 690 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:03,879 Speaker 5: I give you a lot of credit for this, even 691 00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:07,000 Speaker 5: though you say you're not a Trump supporter. I don't 692 00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 5: know if you know Attorney General Merrick Garland very well. 693 00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:11,439 Speaker 6: Very well. 694 00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:13,759 Speaker 1: Now, okay, how do you think he sleeps at night? 695 00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:17,080 Speaker 6: Well, you know, I thought he slept very well. As 696 00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 6: a judge, he was a. 697 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:20,960 Speaker 7: Very good judge, and I actually supported his nomination at 698 00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 7: the Supreme Court. I think he has had a very 699 00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 7: difficult time maneuvering between the political aspects of his office. He's, 700 00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:33,440 Speaker 7: after all, the. 701 00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:36,960 Speaker 6: Cabinet member supposed to advise the president in every aspect 702 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:40,760 Speaker 6: of his presidency, including getting reelected. At the same time 703 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:45,319 Speaker 6: he's the chief law enforcement officer. It's an impossible high 704 00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:48,759 Speaker 6: wire act to manage, and so I think, you know, 705 00:40:48,840 --> 00:40:52,360 Speaker 6: I don't give him very high grades on that. He 706 00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:58,840 Speaker 6: should have immediately appointed a special prosecutor to investigate President Biden. 707 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:01,879 Speaker 6: I don't myself. I don't think Biden's guilty, but there's 708 00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:06,160 Speaker 6: enough there to cause an investigation. Right now, the only 709 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:11,280 Speaker 6: investigation in Biden is for his possession of classified material, 710 00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:13,840 Speaker 6: but there ought to be. If there's a special council 711 00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:18,440 Speaker 6: investigating Trump, as there was resulted in an indictment, two indictments, 712 00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:21,200 Speaker 6: they should also have been a special counsel to investigate 713 00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:24,920 Speaker 6: Biden's dealing in dealings in Ukraine and his dealings with 714 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:25,319 Speaker 6: his son. 715 00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:29,359 Speaker 2: Professor Alan Derschwitz everybody. He has a book coming out, 716 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:32,200 Speaker 2: War against the Jews, How to Stop Hamas Barbarism, available 717 00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:35,360 Speaker 2: for pre order right now on Amazon.

He's remembered his courageous, brilliant, 727 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:05,240 Speaker 5: and devoted to his career, family and friends. Saxa survived 728 00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:07,840 Speaker 5: by his wife, Amber, who gave birth to their second 729 00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:10,880 Speaker 5: daughter three months after his death. Tunnel of the Towers 730 00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:13,680 Speaker 5: paid the mortgage on the family home for Amber and 731 00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:16,560 Speaker 5: their two daughters.

I mean, it is the single 758 00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:44,160 Speaker 5: I think most important determinant to kid's success or failure 759 00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:46,520 Speaker 5: out there, and I hope I can be as good 760 00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:49,560 Speaker 5: as my parents were for me with my three boys. 761 00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:53,440 Speaker 5: And if you set a good example, it hopefully continues 762 00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 5: to echo throughout generations to come.

Good job with your son, and hopefully good 764 00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:02,239 Speaker 5: job that Buck'll do here down the line and in 765 00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:03,600 Speaker 5: the future with his own family. 766 00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:06,080 Speaker 2: Yes, thank you, sir. And your boys are so polite. 767 00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:08,080 Speaker 2: I love that when they call me mister Buck. I 768 00:44:08,120 --> 00:44:09,280 Speaker 2: always think that's so fun. 769 00:44:09,680 --> 00:44:11,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, so far they're they're pretty good. 770 00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:11,480 Speaker 7: Now. 771 00:44:11,520 --> 00:44:14,560 Speaker 5: I've got two teenagers, so we'll see how they do 772 00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:16,719 Speaker 5: with the fifteen and the thirteen year old now, but 773 00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:20,839 Speaker 5: so far I think they've done They've done a decent job. 774 00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:23,919 Speaker 5: I wanted to play this because we were talking about 775 00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:26,359 Speaker 5: Joe Rogan sitting down with Elon Musk And by the way, 776 00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:30,440 Speaker 5: we are going to have a special interview next week. 777 00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:36,160 Speaker 5: Sometimes we are willing to travel for interviews. I think Buck, 778 00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:39,239 Speaker 5: you would agree with this if Elon at some point 779 00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:40,880 Speaker 5: and we can reach out. I'm not even sure how 780 00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:43,439 Speaker 5: to get in touch with Elon. We're willing to do 781 00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:46,400 Speaker 5: a sit down with us. We don't want to do 782 00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:49,239 Speaker 5: like eight minutes because it's hard to you know, do 783 00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:52,000 Speaker 5: a real interview in a short period of time. 784 00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:54,759 Speaker 1: But we would be willing. They're relatively few people we'd 785 00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:57,040 Speaker 1: be willing to travel somewhere to sit down and do 786 00:44:57,080 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 1: a show with Elon. 787 00:44:57,840 --> 00:44:59,839 Speaker 2: And we do need to do at at least an 788 00:44:59,840 --> 00:45:02,600 Speaker 2: ho Elon. Yeah, I mean, I think he's a fascinating guy. 789 00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:03,960 Speaker 2: I mean, you think about this. You can talk to 790 00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:08,120 Speaker 2: him about the forefront of social media and the fight 791 00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:12,280 Speaker 2: for free speech and really ideas that benefit civilization online, 792 00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:20,360 Speaker 2: interstellar space travel, spaceships, et cetera, solar technology, electric cars, 793 00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:24,080 Speaker 2: and transportation of the future and has you know, these 794 00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:25,840 Speaker 2: are big areas that he can speak to in a 795 00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:28,040 Speaker 2: way very very few people, maybe nobody else on the 796 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:29,960 Speaker 2: planet can So interesting guy. 797 00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:32,000 Speaker 1: No doubt. And this is a part of the interview 798 00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:34,040 Speaker 1: that I also think was important. He said. 799 00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:38,920 Speaker 5: The degree to which Twitter had been captured by the 800 00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:43,520 Speaker 5: political realm, particularly the left wing in this country, is 801 00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:46,320 Speaker 5: still not widely understood. Listen to this discussion. 802 00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:49,759 Speaker 4: The degree to which Twitter was simply an arm of 803 00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:53,520 Speaker 4: the government was not well understood by the public, and 804 00:45:53,880 --> 00:45:57,080 Speaker 4: it was there was no it was whatever the official goveran. 805 00:45:57,120 --> 00:46:00,800 Speaker 4: It was like Pravda basically, you know, it's a state publication. 806 00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:02,880 Speaker 4: Is the way to think of old Twitter. It's a 807 00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:04,400 Speaker 4: state publication. 808 00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:08,319 Speaker 3: And was the justification from their perspective that they are 809 00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:13,400 Speaker 3: progressive liberals. They have the right intentions. It's important that 810 00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:16,280 Speaker 3: they stay in power, the progressive liberals stay in government 811 00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:16,880 Speaker 3: and power. 812 00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:21,399 Speaker 4: There was basically oppression of any views that would even 813 00:46:21,440 --> 00:46:23,759 Speaker 4: I always say, could be considered middle of the road. 814 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:28,320 Speaker 5: This is what we all saw, buck right, and Elon 815 00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:31,480 Speaker 5: has come in and said, yeah, everything that you suspected 816 00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:33,879 Speaker 5: was true, and maybe it was even worse. And I'll 817 00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:36,640 Speaker 5: tie this in. It is a major Supreme Court case, 818 00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:40,080 Speaker 5: Missouri v. Biden that is going to be heard by 819 00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:43,920 Speaker 5: the Supreme Court, and I think it could become the 820 00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:48,640 Speaker 5: most influential, the most confluential speech case in any of 821 00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:51,399 Speaker 5: our lives, if the Supreme Court justices do a good 822 00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:51,920 Speaker 5: job with it. 823 00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:55,120 Speaker 2: The challenge that I always see with this is what 824 00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:58,640 Speaker 2: are the consequences? Because unless individuals can start to sue 825 00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:03,480 Speaker 2: the federal government and get monetary damages, I don't know 826 00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:07,920 Speaker 2: that a judge's order Okay, don't censor is going to 827 00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:10,840 Speaker 2: be enough to stop this from continuing to happen. And 828 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:14,120 Speaker 2: I think it's worth everybody being reminded of me. Yesterday 829 00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:16,560 Speaker 2: we talked a little bit about with Alex Berenson, who, 830 00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:18,239 Speaker 2: you know, Clay and I just have a lot of 831 00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:22,200 Speaker 2: respect for because when it was really hard to be 832 00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:25,279 Speaker 2: rational on COVID, he was right there. Yeah, and so 833 00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:27,040 Speaker 2: was Clay and so was I. And that's actually how 834 00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:28,600 Speaker 2: we met each other. It was because we were two 835 00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:31,160 Speaker 2: guys who were like, wait a second, what people are 836 00:47:31,160 --> 00:47:34,160 Speaker 2: doing is insane. So it was possible to know, despite 837 00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:35,799 Speaker 2: what that guy, Professor Galloway said of. 838 00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:37,840 Speaker 1: Like, it was hard, it was fog of war.
