00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of The Clay Travis and Buck

2
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:09,080
Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome in Tuesday edition, Clay Travis and

3
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,600
Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all of you hanging out with

4
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:16,440
Speaker 1: us as we roll through what should be a really

5
00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:21,319
Speaker 1: exhilaratingly fun I hope Tuesday edition of the program, but

6
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:26,840
Speaker 1: we begin with breaking news inside of the show. Last week,

7
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:31,040
Speaker 1: I tested positive for what we believe is the omicron

8
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:36,560
Speaker 1: version of COVID this week, appearing live from his Manhattan

9
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:41,680
Speaker 1: apartment after testing positive yesterday, buck Sexton, how do you feel.

10
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,240
Speaker 1: I'm all right, man, I mean people could hear yesterday,

11
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 1: and Hi, everybody, people could hear yesterday. My voice was

12
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 1: a little off, particularly on the podcast of The Buck

13
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:53,280
Speaker 1: Sexton Show in the morning. I had to restart it

14
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 1: a few times, and then I realized, because let me

15
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 1: just tell you, the thought process here at Clay, I

16
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:00,720
Speaker 1: think it's instructive. I wake up and I think myself, oh, man,

17
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:03,440
Speaker 1: I've got a cold. I think I'm not sure yet,

18
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 1: and I go into the office and I'm like, hm,

19
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 1: I feel kind of funky. If it wasn't the era

20
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 1: of COVID, I would have just been like drink some tea.

21
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 1: Man up, You'll be all right, don't cough on anybody.

22
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 1: But because it's COVID, of course it hits me as

23
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:19,959
Speaker 1: I sit down into the show. Oh gosh, I gotta

24
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,760
Speaker 1: go get a COVID test, don't I? And sure enough

25
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 1: it comes back positive right away. And now I'm sitting

26
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:28,400
Speaker 1: here in quarantine until Friday. And I gotta tell you

27
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 1: the good news for me so far is that having

28
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 1: had COVID twice, not once, but twice and after being

29
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 1: forced to get a shot, I've noticed a pattern here, Clay.

30
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 1: I get the virus, and then the state or in

31
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 1: this case, the city of New York, forces me to

32
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,319
Speaker 1: get a shot for that virus after I've had it

33
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: in a natural immunity. And I think that's probably gonna

34
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 1: happen again now now that they've had omicron, they're probably

35
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 1: gonna make me get an omicron booster in March. As

36
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 1: if we're all idiots and can't actually make any decisions

37
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 1: for ourselves, when did you first have COVID? Because I

38
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 1: first had COVID in and November of twenty twenty, I

39
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 1: think I had the alpha version of COVID. Then no

40
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:10,000
Speaker 1: real issues. I was you know a day maybe that

41
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: I felt a little bit ikey back in November of

42
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 1: twenty twenty, and then last week I had COVID and

43
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 1: I would say, you know, I mean again, it was

44
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 1: a light cold for me. I'm assuming it's the omicron version.

45
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:22,680
Speaker 1: Some people out there, like you don't know what the

46
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 1: official variant you got was because they don't test yet.

47
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 1: Right ninety eight or ninety nine percent of people are

48
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:32,240
Speaker 1: testing positive for omicron when they actually analyzed this specific variant.

49
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 1: So given the fact that I already had COVID before,

50
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 1: I think it's probably omicron. The statistics would be. So

51
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,919
Speaker 1: you had it for the first time whin I had COVID,

52
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 1: And some of the audience might remember because I was

53
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 1: off radio for like a few days in March I

54
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 1: think of twenty twenty one. So you made it a

55
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 1: full year year after things broke out the first time. Yeah,

56
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I lasted a year without getting COVID, and

57
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 1: I was the anti mass spanned it in my building

58
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 1: and everyone was complaining, and I'm like, well, somehow I'm

59
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,800
Speaker 1: fine walking around here. And it also reminds me to

60
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:08,079
Speaker 1: all the times I've had to mask up on planes

61
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:11,800
Speaker 1: in recent months. And do all this stupidity. Okay, I

62
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 1: got sick anyway, So what was that really all about?

63
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:15,639
Speaker 1: And every I know is getting sick with COVID in

64
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 1: New York, everybody right now? Yeah, So, and we should

65
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 1: also mention we've got an event I think at least

66
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 1: now still scheduled. Ali can let me know if anything's

67
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,920
Speaker 1: changed in Fort Myers. So the other reason you wanted

68
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,919
Speaker 1: to get tested is because I will now that I've

69
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 1: already gotten through it and I've quarantined and everything else.

70
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,640
Speaker 1: In theory, I'm still going to be at this Fort

71
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: Myers event that we're doing in Florida. But you wanted

72
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 1: to make sure that if you had COVID, you weren't

73
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 1: traveling and going to that event, right, So yeah, because

74
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 1: it would be right on the edge of what the

75
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 1: quarantine guidelines are, right, And there's a difference, I think,

76
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 1: between being out of quarantine and going and shaking hands

77
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 1: with a few hundred people. So yeah, we wanted it.

78
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 1: We wanted to be sure before. But it's just amazing

79
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 1: how much the psychology around all this stuff has changed,

80
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 1: because I mean, I'm sitting here right, I've been telling

81
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,839
Speaker 1: our friends this feels like like wimpy kron like, it's

82
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 1: not it's a fraction. Having had both the original, it's

83
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 1: like reginal. You got COVID a remix. Now you know

84
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 1: original PEPSI original code. I had the original COVID and

85
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 1: that was rough. I mean that was really a shock

86
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,719
Speaker 1: to the system for me for a first solid week.

87
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 1: And now I'm sitting here and I got the the

88
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 1: I guess the omicron variant, and people keep saying it's milder.

89
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 1: I would not miss under if we were if this

90
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,039
Speaker 1: were twenty nineteen, Clay and I felt like this, I

91
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:36,599
Speaker 1: would be in this student. I would not miss a

92
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 1: moment of work. I just try to stay away from

93
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,720
Speaker 1: people in close contact because I would think I had

94
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:44,839
Speaker 1: a cold. That's it. Yeah, it's amazing how society has

95
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:48,479
Speaker 1: completely fundamentally altered. Cause we do get that question, why

96
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:50,479
Speaker 1: did you decide to go get tested? And last week

97
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 1: I got tested. I didn't get tested the first time

98
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 1: I found out I had COVID officially because of the

99
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,239
Speaker 1: and a body test. I did later, but I wanted

100
00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,480
Speaker 1: to know for sure whether I had COVID so I

101
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 1: could talk about it on the radio. And for you,

102
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 1: we've got an event scheduled this weekend. So you're like, well,

103
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 1: if I feel like I've got a cold, Given how

104
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 1: prevalent in New York City the omicron variant has swept

105
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,159
Speaker 1: through the entirety of New York City, you wanted to

106
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,159
Speaker 1: make sure whether or not you had it too. It

107
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 1: is kind of crazy that, given the fact that it

108
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 1: feels like a white cold, if you had had a cold,

109
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:22,359
Speaker 1: you'd be like, Okay, it's just a cold. I'm not

110
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 1: positive for omicron and or COVID, and so you would

111
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 1: just have continued with your life. But now we've created

112
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 1: this entire world where if you've got COVID, oh my goodness,

113
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 1: you immediately change your behavior and you're in the apartment

114
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 1: right now doing your show from there. I'd be so

115
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 1: curious to see what the actual data would be on

116
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 1: whether or not omicron is for people who have had

117
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 1: any string of COVID before. So, if you have some

118
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 1: natural immunity that you've built up to this type of

119
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 1: virus in general, whether I mean, how much more or

120
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:01,480
Speaker 1: less dangerous than the common cold? Is this really? Yeah?

121
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 1: I mean that honestly. I mean, look, COVID nineteen was

122
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,280
Speaker 1: clearly I mean, it was worse than a common flu,

123
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 1: was worse than a common cold. Omicron. I mean, for

124
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 1: a while the data showed nobody was dying from this.

125
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,279
Speaker 1: But what's fascinating is, and I feel like you have

126
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:17,279
Speaker 1: to look at the data now with a lot of

127
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 1: skepticism because we know there a lot of people in

128
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 1: the hospital who aren't supposed to be. I would want

129
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 1: to know, so are all these people because right now,

130
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: the average I think the fourteen day rolling average according

131
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:30,039
Speaker 1: to the New York Times is about eight eighteen hundred

132
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: deaths a day right now, And so are those all

133
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,600
Speaker 1: omicron deaths or is that from the five or ten

134
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 1: percent that's still delta that's out there. I mean, you know,

135
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 1: I feel like we can't know Clay, but I can

136
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 1: tell everybody right now sitting here doing this show. I'm writing,

137
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 1: like the middle of it right I'm I'm in the

138
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 1: peak of omicron, at least I hope that's where I am,

139
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,280
Speaker 1: because it's not that bad. I just feel like there's

140
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 1: stuff that we don't know yet, or there's stuff that

141
00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 1: isn't reflected in the data. And if we're not willing

142
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:05,359
Speaker 1: to basically bulldoze through omicron and go back to normal life.

143
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 1: I feel like we're now all prisoners of respiratory virus

144
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 1: sees in hysteria for the rest of our lives. That's

145
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 1: my concern. If this is too scary for people to

146
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 1: handle and go about normal life. Yeah, sure it gets

147
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 1: shots if you're at risk, etc. But Clay, if this

148
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 1: is too scary, everything is too scary. I think that's

149
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 1: why the integral question going forward has to be how

150
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 1: does this all end? Because to your point, it's almost

151
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 1: impossible for omicron based on all the data that we've

152
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 1: seen so far. I had it, you have it, you

153
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 1: have it, you have it right now, And so we've

154
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 1: experienced what we believe is exactly what this virus does

155
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 1: to your body. And the answer is, for most people,

156
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 1: it's not very significant in terms of its impact. And

157
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 1: and that's, by the way, whether you're vaccinated or unvaccinated,

158
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 1: because one of the usual blue check moves, if you

159
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 1: were a hardcore blue check buck, you would have said,

160
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 1: I've got omicron on, but it's not impacting me at

161
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 1: all because I was vaccinated. Right, But we know that

162
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 1: you're Johnson and Johnson vaccine. Sorry to laugh, but you're

163
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 1: Johnson and Johnson vaccine. Legitimately has no protection against omicron,

164
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 1: and by the way, so does everybody out there's fiser vaccine,

165
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 1: and so it is a really interesting question of when

166
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 1: do we get back in some way to some form

167
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 1: of normalcy. If this variant doesn't do it, I don't

168
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 1: know what is going to do it for people. So

169
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 1: as we know, the fourth shot of the COVID vaccine

170
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:39,920
Speaker 1: has been administered in a clinically significant level and a

171
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 1: number of people in Israel already and the most recent

172
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 1: Israeli data. We keep looking at the Israeli data because

173
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:49,800
Speaker 1: they keep very headless precise numbers, unlike in this country,

174
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 1: where it's you know, fouci going, I don't know, let's

175
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 1: take a guess. In Israel, they actually pay attention to

176
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 1: the numbers very very closely. And even the UK, as

177
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:00,559
Speaker 1: we've discussed, as better than we are. But the fourth

178
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 1: shot of the COVID vaccine is not enough to prevent

179
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 1: widespread omicron infection. Still, so you're still getting you're still

180
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 1: getting sick. Four shots everybody, and that's not four shots

181
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 1: of the bootleg Jay and Jay vaccine that I got

182
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 1: specifically because I knew that this was all a farce

183
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 1: and I just had to go through the motions or

184
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,440
Speaker 1: else I was going to be barred from everything. I

185
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: couldn't go into an office building. I couldn't. I can't

186
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 1: do anything in New York without a shot, Clay. It's

187
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 1: insane what they've done to people here. But now after

188
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 1: four shots, you're still gonna get sick. That's what the

189
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 1: Israelis are telling people now. And and you know, to

190
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:38,199
Speaker 1: Barrenson's point we had them on last week. If they're

191
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:42,959
Speaker 1: not separating out those who are so old and so

192
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 1: sick that they can't get the vaccine from those who

193
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 1: are younger and are choosing to be unvaccinated, that dramatically

194
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:55,200
Speaker 1: undermines the takeaway of the actual data set of what

195
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,439
Speaker 1: vaccination really means for people in terms of commember and

196
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 1: all hangs on it. It'll keep you from realization and death. Okay,

197
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,719
Speaker 1: but how much how much of that is people? How

198
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 1: many people under under fifty are going unvaccinated and are

199
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 1: actually dying from COVID of any kind? Whatsoever? I would

200
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,080
Speaker 1: like to see that data, and how many people are

201
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 1: the una what percentage of the unvaccinated who die are

202
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 1: going through cancer treatment and can't get the vaccine or

203
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:22,680
Speaker 1: you know that's those are the numbers we need to

204
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 1: have what we're suddenly getting. And we'll play that audio

205
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,840
Speaker 1: for you from Israel about the fourth shot failing in

206
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 1: when we come back in the next break here in

207
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 1: a moment. But that's the data that we're starting to get,

208
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 1: just a pen prick of buck, Like, for instance, in

209
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:39,520
Speaker 1: New York, Governor Hokel suddenly saw the light of day,

210
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 1: and we played CNN suddenly Seeing the light of Day

211
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:43,199
Speaker 1: over this too, and they were saying, wait a minute,

212
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 1: A lot of people who are hospitalized and testing positive

213
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 1: for COVID are there for totally unconnected to COVID reasons.

214
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:54,760
Speaker 1: In other words, if you got into a traffic accident

215
00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 1: and you needed to be hospitalized because of that traffic accident,

216
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,440
Speaker 1: you test positive, you go in to have a baby,

217
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 1: you test positive, and you're treated as a COVID hospitalization,

218
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 1: even though you're an ancillary COVID hospitalization because the only

219
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:13,200
Speaker 1: reason you're there is for another reason. But Buck to

220
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 1: your point, if you have an awful cancer stage and

221
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 1: you are near death, and you are in a hospice

222
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:24,160
Speaker 1: and you test positive for COVID during that process, then

223
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:28,080
Speaker 1: you are counted as a COVID death. So all of

224
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 1: these numbers to me seem to be substantially out of whack.

225
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 1: We'll play that audio for you about the fourth different

226
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 1: COVID vaccine and what it's actually happening in Israel, because

227
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 1: I do think it's significant. In the meantime. Legacy Box

228
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:43,440
Speaker 1: is a company helping so many families in this audience

229
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:47,679
Speaker 1: preserve memories contained on family videos and film recorded and

230
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 1: collected over the years. You remember back in the day

231
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:53,200
Speaker 1: when there were camcorders and video cassettes before the iPhone

232
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:57,520
Speaker 1: and android made that much easier to store. We'd never

233
00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:00,320
Speaker 1: throw those cassette tapes away, let alone the super great

234
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:03,240
Speaker 1: film rills. But how do you even watch them again? Well,

235

00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:18,320
Speaker 1: and Buck section show. Everybody. This is Buck coming to

259
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:24,199
Speaker 1: you from Quarantine with the omicron variant of COVID nineteen.

260
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 1: So we will continue to continue a broadcast here this week.

261
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,079
Speaker 1: I will continue to broadcast with Clay. It's fine, he

262
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 1: already beat his omicron, so he's good to go. But

263
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 1: here's what they're saying in Israel right now about this,

264
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 1: they have some updated data on all of it. They

265
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:46,080
Speaker 1: actually have fourth the fourth shot has been given to

266
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,439
Speaker 1: the fourth keep in mind, not the third or fourth

267
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 1: over five hundred thousand seniors in Israel. This is CNN

268
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:55,400
Speaker 1: reporting on at play clip two in Israel. Circle weeks ago,

269
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:58,960
Speaker 1: they started giving fourth doses to people who are immune compromised,

270
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 1: to people who are six years of age or older,

271
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 1: and also to healthcare workers. They said the fourth dose

272
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 1: did raise antibodies, and maybe there was a slightly lower

273
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 1: level of infections among those who got the fourth dose.

274
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:15,199
Speaker 1: They weren't really sure. They also didn't give any data

275
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:17,559
Speaker 1: as to whether or not getting that fourth dose did

276
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:20,160
Speaker 1: what we really wanted to do, which is to prevent

277
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 1: severe disease keep you out of the hospital. Now, if

278
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 1: this all sounds mushy, it's because it was mushy. The

279
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 1: Israeli researchers did not give any actual data. They just

280
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 1: gave descriptions. You can tell Clay that there's a bias

281
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 1: among scientists now around the world for never wanting to

282
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:42,720
Speaker 1: admit that what they're doing with COVID isn't working. I

283
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 1: mean the fact that they can't even prove any clinical

284
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:49,920
Speaker 1: significance from giving a fourth shot to seniors. In this case,

285
00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 1: it clearly does not stop infection, well does it stop

286
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 1: infection at all? And I think that you see they

287
00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: continue to play games. They're doing this with masks too,

288
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 1: where they shout you down for saying it's not effective

289
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 1: even if it's say, ten percent effective at doing what

290
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 1: they say. Nowhere else in the pharmaceutical industry with this,

291
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:12,440
Speaker 1: or in the medical industry would this be able to fly? Right?

292
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 1: If I was giving you an antibiotic for an infection

293
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 1: when there are other alternatives out there that worked ten

294
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 1: percent of the time or five percent of the time,

295
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 1: they'd say, we can't approve this, This is crazy. But

296
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 1: with the games that the Fauciites play all around the

297
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 1: world is if it works even a tiny bit, they

298
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 1: say it works and the rest of us say, well,

299
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 1: not very well. I think it's the question that I

300
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,600
Speaker 1: would ask everybody out there. Take it outside of COVID,

301
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 1: because there's so much, so many focused right now on COVID.

302
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 1: Everybody's lined up to fight, you know, for the vaccine

303
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 1: or against it. Let's just pretend it something else. If

304
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 1: you got four shots to keep you from getting polio

305
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 1: that you say, hey, we've got this polio vaccine for you,

306
00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 1: it's gonna work phenomenally. Well, you'll get four shots in

307
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:05,800
Speaker 1: the year, and then you still got polio. Everybody out

308
00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 1: there don't even to consider it COVID. Everybody out there

309
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 1: be manned. That was a real waste of those four shots.

310
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 1: Don't miss what is trying to happen here, Buck, which

311
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 1: is they have shifted the entire reason for the COVID

312
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 1: vaccine in quotation marks from hey, you won't get it

313
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:28,080
Speaker 1: and you won't transmit it. It basically ends with you

314
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 1: to now. Their argument is if you get the COVID

315
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 1: vaccine potentially three or four shots worth within a year,

316
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 1: then you won't get really sick or need to go

317
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 1: to the hospital, when, by the way, the data doesn't

318
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 1: even reflect that that is necessarily true because the people

319
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:48,760
Speaker 1: who are going to the hospital, at least where they

320
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 1: have good data in England are like eighty percent vaccinated. Now,

321
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 1: so this whole argument, I don't think really holds water.

322
00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 1: I think it's a function of our failure to have

323
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,240
Speaker 1: good data in the United States and or to share

324
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:05,680
Speaker 1: it very well. If you want to get the shot

325
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:09,200
Speaker 1: get it. But this idea that they initially sold us,

326
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:13,199
Speaker 1: which is this would end COVID, is not true and

327
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 1: they won't admit it. I mean, there's now obvious stuff

328
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 1: going on here and they won't say it, which is

329
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,639
Speaker 1: I think a huge tale about where all of this

330
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,919
Speaker 1: is going. I look, I believe that Fauci and the

331
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,679
Speaker 1: rest of them, going into the midterms, the Democrats are

332
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:29,400
Speaker 1: going to say we're going into a relax summer. They're

333
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:31,640
Speaker 1: gonna claim victory over the virus this summer. Get ready

334
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:34,080
Speaker 1: for it, just because they know they have to. And

335
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:37,520
Speaker 1: then as soon as the midterms are over, if they can,

336
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 1: they'll start to say, mask up again, peasants, get ready

337
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:43,359
Speaker 1: for your shots. This is now. The new normal is

338
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:47,040
Speaker 1: turn on, turn off the faucism. It's not it goes

339
00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:50,040
Speaker 1: away forever. That's what they're trying to angle for, and

340
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 1: that's what we're going to fight against with everything we can.

341
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:55,199
Speaker 1: By the way, voting rights as they call it, but

342
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:57,439
Speaker 1: really is that what the Democrats are into claim are

343
00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 1: going to talk to you about the push to get

344
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 1: something done in the Senate on this, We'll come back

345
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 1: to it in a moment. With each mortgage free home

346

Speaker 1: The Tunnel to Towers Foundation delivers on its promise to

00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:30,600
Speaker 1: million downloads in December. All right, so we are going

372
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:35,200
Speaker 1: to spend now several days, potentially the rest of the week,

373
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:40,240
Speaker 1: engaging in a form of kabuki theater in the Senate,

374
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:44,640
Speaker 1: where it is quite clear that there are not fifty

375
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:50,320
Speaker 1: votes to change the filibuster rules, and as a result

376
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 1: of their not being those votes to change the filibuster rules,

377
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 1: there is no way to pass this voting rights legislation.

378
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 1: That doesn't mean that Democrats are going to go quietly,

379
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,840
Speaker 1: quietly into that good night. They are going to spend

380
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,719
Speaker 1: an entire week while we have all sorts of serious

381
00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:15,040
Speaker 1: issues that are actually taking place on this issue, belaboring

382
00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:17,919
Speaker 1: the point, arguing that our democracy is at stake, and

383
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,679
Speaker 1: their allies in the media are going to continue to

384
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:25,840
Speaker 1: make that argument too, including CNN. Don Lemon. Here is

385
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 1: CNN making the case last night to their audience, which

386
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 1: by the way, they have lost ninety percent of their

387
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:36,359
Speaker 1: audience since January of twenty twenty one, one year later.

388
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:38,720
Speaker 1: The ten percent of people that are still listening to

389
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 1: Don Lemon, this is what he told them. Inevitably, you

390
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 1: get the politicians, especially the ones in Washington now, who

391
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:47,639
Speaker 1: are blocking the people's access to the voting booth, and

392
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 1: they want to use Doctor King Conveniently. They're the biggest

393
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:53,760
Speaker 1: hypocrites on the planet because if Cinema and Mansion really

394
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:56,400
Speaker 1: want to honor the legacy of Doctor King and all

395
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:58,880
Speaker 1: the people who fought for civil rights and voting rights

396
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 1: in this country, what they do is to a carve

397
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:05,000
Speaker 1: out for voting rights with the filibuster. That's what they

398
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 1: would do. But for some reason they are mired in

399
00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:13,280
Speaker 1: tradition and they are stuck with these rules that are backwards.

400
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:16,920
Speaker 1: And as the former President said that John Lewis's memorial service,

401
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,359
Speaker 1: these are relics of Jim Crowe. The filibuster has been

402
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 1: used to block civil rights legislation forever, and so we

403
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 1: need to stop that. We evolved. Just because there is

404
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,399
Speaker 1: a rule doesn't mean that the rule can't change. The

405
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 1: filibuster is not a relic, just crazy it's just crazy, right,

406
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:35,159
Speaker 1: I mean, for the filibuster is not a relic of

407
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:39,399
Speaker 1: Jim Crowe. That's just historically flatly incorrect. So start with that.

408
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 1: Look here, here's the game. Here's the game. Notice how

409
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:46,360
Speaker 1: they never give us any specifics Clay right, it's always

410
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:49,840
Speaker 1: they're blocking people from access to the polls, and they're

411
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 1: trying to connect it to the nineteen sixties, are trying

412
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:55,200
Speaker 1: to connect it to Jim Crowe before that, and make

413
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:57,720
Speaker 1: it seem as though there are people standing at the

414
00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 1: polling places, you know, with shotguns over their shoulders saying

415
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 1: you know, your kind aren't allowed to vote here to

416
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:05,920
Speaker 1: people I mean saying, you know, the stuff the darkest

417
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:10,200
Speaker 1: parts of America's passed. That's not what's happening at all.

418
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 1: That's not the reality of America today. They're never honest

419
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 1: about what's happening here. They never tell you who is

420
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,639
Speaker 1: not actually allowed to vote and what the problems are.

421
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 1: They're talking voter ID. I mean, they make people where

422
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 1: you're not where a show voter ID and in a

423
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,840
Speaker 1: sense now identification to get into restaurants all over New

424
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 1: York City, Los Angeles, Chicago, Washington, DC. So for health

425
00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:39,040
Speaker 1: reasons ID and a vaccine. Of course they're fine. But

426
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 1: for our sacred democracy are our elections. That's one part

427
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,480
Speaker 1: of it. But also notice how you can never placate them,

428
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:48,359
Speaker 1: so they don't tell us what the problem is. But

429
00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:50,639
Speaker 1: even if you were, and this is just the Democrats

430
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:54,680
Speaker 1: pretending to be pretending to be the great heroes of

431
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:56,600
Speaker 1: the civil rights movement went as we know, the Democrats

432
00:22:56,640 --> 00:23:01,159
Speaker 1: were the ones in favor of suppressing minority votes, the

433
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 1: black vote, in favor of segregation, in favor of Jim Crow,

434
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:07,040
Speaker 1: in favor of slavery, and the Democrat Party has all

435
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,720
Speaker 1: of that in its past. But okay, so Clay, let's

436
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:11,760
Speaker 1: say they allow thirty days. Just pick a random stay

437
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:15,879
Speaker 1: thirty days of early voting, and the Democrat formulation. I

438
00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:20,680
Speaker 1: can say, Clay, you know what, the Republicans are blocking

439
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 1: access to the polls. They're being racist because I want

440
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 1: forty five days of early voting and it never stops.

441
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 1: You get forty five, Okay, I want sixty. If you

442
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:32,720
Speaker 1: don't agree with my sixty days of early voting, it's racist,

443
00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:35,360
Speaker 1: don't you see? This is the game they play. And

444
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:37,719
Speaker 1: because people don't actually get into the specifics of what

445
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,000
Speaker 1: the rules are. They're never held to account for the

446
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 1: rhetoric they use, which is all just one big virtue signal.

447
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:45,440
Speaker 1: Are there people who want to vote that are not

448
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 1: able to vote? I mean that to me is the

449
00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:52,280
Speaker 1: essence of the question that no one actually asks. And

450
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:56,359
Speaker 1: I ask that question in a straightforward way because I

451
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 1: have lived all over the city of Nashville in my life.

452
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 1: I have lived in majority black voting districts. I mean,

453
00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:07,840
Speaker 1: the heart of inner city Nashville. I live there, no

454
00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:12,520
Speaker 1: issue voting. I now live in suburban Nashville, no issue voting.

455
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:14,159
Speaker 1: I don't think there are very many people out there

456
00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:16,640
Speaker 1: who say, hey, you know where I think of as

457
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:22,720
Speaker 1: having the greatest technological capabilities known to man, Tennessee. I'm

458
00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:26,360
Speaker 1: kind of saying that a joking way, but in all honesty,

459
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:31,400
Speaker 1: who are these people that want to vote that are

460
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:36,640
Speaker 1: otherwise being not allowed to vote? I just I don't

461
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:40,040
Speaker 1: ever hear anybody say, Hey, I was going to go vote,

462
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:44,359
Speaker 1: but there's some issue that kept me from voting, other

463
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:46,439
Speaker 1: than I just chose not to do it. I mean

464
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:48,720
Speaker 1: voting to me, Buck, you tell me if you disagree

465
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,959
Speaker 1: in your experience in New York voting is really simple.

466
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:54,320
Speaker 1: I mean, whether you want to do it early, which

467
00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 1: I have done a ton of times. Early voting goes

468
00:24:57,280 --> 00:25:00,359
Speaker 1: on forever. Here in my state of Tennessee is a

469
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,720
Speaker 1: red state, it is easy to go early vote, or

470
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,399
Speaker 1: whether I want to vote on election day, which I

471
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:09,679
Speaker 1: also have done. And truth be told, I like voting

472
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 1: on election day the past few elections just because there's

473
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:17,879
Speaker 1: something that feels quintessentially American and democratic to me about

474
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 1: being able to vote on actual election day. That's what

475
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 1: I did on twenty twenty. That's what I did, I

476
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 1: believe on twenty sixteen. But I've also voted early in

477
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:29,760
Speaker 1: my life. I I want to know who are these

478
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:32,480
Speaker 1: people that have a great deal of interest in voting

479
00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:35,439
Speaker 1: that are right now unable to vote. I get the

480
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:39,840
Speaker 1: sense that those people basically don't exist. You could also

481
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:42,719
Speaker 1: take the argument in a similar direction to what I

482
00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:45,600
Speaker 1: have done with people on the left to prove the

483
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:48,639
Speaker 1: absurdity of so many of their claims on illegal immigration.

484
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 1: I mean, I'll always ask them, okay, who what's too

485
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:55,680
Speaker 1: many when it comes to legal immigration and who doesn't

486
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,520
Speaker 1: get to stay? I mean, be really specific about it, right,

487
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:00,679
Speaker 1: And if you agree that we should have im ration laws.

488
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 1: Who is going to be deported? Because if you don't

489
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,679
Speaker 1: deport people, then you don't have immigration laws. There's no

490
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:08,480
Speaker 1: penalty for the breaking of those laws. When you ask

491
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 1: a LIB what voter integrity protections do you support, the

492
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:18,360
Speaker 1: answer is none, then maybe they'll come up with one

493
00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,919
Speaker 1: if they think long and hard about it. But getting

494
00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 1: people that move out of a district clay or even

495
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:26,439
Speaker 1: purging dead people from voter rolls, well, that sounds problematic.

496
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:30,160
Speaker 1: That sounds like something that the racist GOP would do.

497
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:34,119
Speaker 1: Idea at the polls. Oh, that's not only allowing voting

498
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,880
Speaker 1: to go up to voting day and not election day

499
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 1: and not afterwards. Oh, that sounds that sounds like racist

500
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 1: GOP stuff to me. You'll notice everything that we could

501
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,760
Speaker 1: possibly do, signature match, everything you could do to make sure,

502
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,960
Speaker 1: as we've seen, elections can be very very close, very

503
00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:54,000
Speaker 1: very tight, thousands of votes separating victory from defeat for

504
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:58,600
Speaker 1: presidential election, never mind a congressional or statewide election, and

505
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 1: they oppose it at every turn, And because they've created

506
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,240
Speaker 1: this sense in there, that they created this phantom in

507
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 1: their minds that there's tremendous voter suppression and even when

508
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 1: the data doesn't bear it out, when that shows that

509
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:14,119
Speaker 1: you have all time minority turnout in a state after

510
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:18,080
Speaker 1: sometimes they'll pass voter integrity protections in that state. I mean,

511
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:21,320
Speaker 1: the voter ID clay is supported by huge majorities the

512
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,160
Speaker 1: America's not even close huge majority of the American people

513
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:27,159
Speaker 1: when they're asked about this, But Chuck Schumer acts like

514
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:30,199
Speaker 1: voter ID who says that it's like a return to

515
00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:32,800
Speaker 1: the era of Jim Crow. I mean, you hear the

516
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:35,879
Speaker 1: rhetoric they use, and you understand how these people are

517
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,800
Speaker 1: such psychos about COVID, because they're just psychos about politics

518
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:42,400
Speaker 1: in general. Well, and to your point, as soon as

519
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,520
Speaker 1: you're demanding that I show an ID to be able

520
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:48,160
Speaker 1: to eat at McDonald's, I'm sorry. Being able to require

521
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 1: an ID to vote doesn't seem like a bridge too

522
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:52,840
Speaker 1: far right if you ask the average person out there,

523
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:57,040
Speaker 1: and you're correct, white, Black, Asian, Hispanic people overwhelmingly support

524
00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:00,200
Speaker 1: the idea of voter ID laws. But if you ask

525
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:04,159
Speaker 1: the average person out there, hey, which seems more legitimate,

526
00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:09,240
Speaker 1: Show your ID in order to vote, or show an

527
00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:11,280
Speaker 1: ID in order to get a big mac at a

528
00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:15,200
Speaker 1: McDonald's to prove that you have been vaccinated. I think

529
00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:18,679
Speaker 1: most people would say, hey, id AT voting seems like

530
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,880
Speaker 1: a more legitimate policy to follow than id in order

531
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,840
Speaker 1: to get a chicken McNuggets. By the way, you don't

532
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 1: just cast your votes once a year or once every

533
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:32,359
Speaker 1: other year. You vote every single month when you're paying

534
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,040
Speaker 1: your bills and spending your money with companies you have

535
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:38,320
Speaker 1: deals with. Consider your cell phone provider and the bill

536
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 1: you're paying each month, your money supports the candidates they

537
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 1: choose to support. How disappointed would you be to learn

538
00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:49,800
Speaker 1: that candidates are left leaning pushing left at agendas. But

539
00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:53,800
Speaker 1: there's a solution, and it's Pure Talk. Get your cell

540
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:56,960
Speaker 1: phone service from pure Talk. They use the exact same towers,

Speaker 1: exact same five G Networks is one of the big

00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 1: companies making these donations. But with pure Talk you get

Speaker 1: to weigh in, please by all means eight hundred two

557
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 1: a two two eight a two on those lines. Lines

558
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 1: are open. We will be talking a bit more today

559
00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 1: about what the Democrat plan is here for the filibuster,

560
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 1: as well as which, by the way, the filibuster is

561
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:06,960
Speaker 1: not going to change. Why are the Democrat doing all this?

562
00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:10,520
Speaker 1: As well as Clay that that billionaire that we talked

563
00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:14,080
Speaker 1: about yesterday, the part owner of the gold the Yeah,

564
00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,760
Speaker 1: Golden State Warriors, he's in the midst of quite a

565
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:21,160
Speaker 1: walk back. Turns out. Saying nobody cares about the genocide

566
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:24,640
Speaker 1: of human beings in Western China is not a popular

567
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:29,080
Speaker 1: thing to say in general, and particularly unpopular among the

568
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 1: very uh you know, international focused woke left wingers that

569
00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 1: I'm sure this guy was trying to impress with his

570
00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 1: supposedly you know, knowledgeable commentary on global affairs, which obviously

571
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,320
Speaker 1: everyone said, Wait a second, no one cares about genocide.

572
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 1: You gotta be you're you're out of your mind. Have

573
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:49,480
Speaker 1: you ever heard of this guy before? By the way,

574
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:52,160
Speaker 1: I had a little bit Chamath. I think he's at

575
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:56,160
Speaker 1: Chamath on Twitter if I'm not mistaken. But first of all,

576
00:30:56,200 --> 00:31:00,440
Speaker 1: he's donated six figures to Joe Biden, so he's a huge,

577
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:04,800
Speaker 1: huge league obvious of course, huge left wing donor. And

578
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:08,240
Speaker 1: for people out there who missed this, he's a minority owner.

579
00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:10,719
Speaker 1: I think he owns like ten percent of the of

580
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:12,720
Speaker 1: the Golden State Warriors, so it's not as if he's

581
00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:15,080
Speaker 1: the managing owner of the By the way, they don't

582
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 1: even use the word owner anymore. You knew this, right buck.

583
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,080
Speaker 1: They said the word owner was too offensive. This is

584
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:22,840
Speaker 1: one hundred percent true in the NBA because of its

585
00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:26,320
Speaker 1: connotations to slavery, and so they refer that this is

586
00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 1: one hundred percent true. I'm not making this up. You.

587
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 1: They refer to all owners in the NBA now as governors,

588
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 1: so you are a team governor as opposed to a

589
00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 1: team owner, to avoid the offensive word owner. And that's amazing.

590
00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:44,240
Speaker 1: You know that. Now, when you're getting a tour of

591
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:48,400
Speaker 1: an apartment in any city in America, it is likely

592
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:50,720
Speaker 1: that they will tell you it is no longer a

593
00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:56,840
Speaker 1: master bedroom. It's called the primary bedroom because master bedroom

594
00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:01,400
Speaker 1: was offensive as well. I mean, this is you know,

595
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 1: we look at the language changes and it can seem

596
00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 1: kind of agree by the way, now offensive too, that's

597
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:10,720
Speaker 1: a good that's a good question. I don't know, you know,

598
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:12,800
Speaker 1: I mean master overall that we just have to write

599
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 1: it out of existence. You know, there's that big what

600
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:17,240
Speaker 1: is it on YouTube? But it's called master class, I

601
00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:19,640
Speaker 1: think where you can learn learn how to be a DJ,

602
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:21,720
Speaker 1: or learn how to be a world class chef. World

603
00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 1: class chef, by the way, pro tick. You can't actually

604
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:27,800
Speaker 1: learn how to be a world class chef through the

605
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:32,320
Speaker 1: master class. But anyway, yeah, they're always gonna it's about

606
00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 1: the power to change language more than it is to

607
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:38,680
Speaker 1: make changes that will actually be consistent. Right. So it's oh,

608
00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:42,120
Speaker 1: by the way, a perfect example of this. Senator Rand

609
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:45,880
Speaker 1: Paul has been banned from YouTube for say or I

610
00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 1: should say suspended, I mean band suspend it. It's tough

611
00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 1: to keep up, but he's been kicked off of YouTube

612
00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:53,160
Speaker 1: in the past, and now I believe he's been kicked

613
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:57,920
Speaker 1: off again for saying cloth masks don't work. What's fascinating

614
00:32:58,000 --> 00:32:59,920
Speaker 1: is that now you actually are seeing the double stand

615
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 1: unfold in real time. You are not allowed to say

616
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:07,200
Speaker 1: in big tech world that cloth masks are ineffective or

617
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:10,600
Speaker 1: don't work against omacron. You were only allowed to say,

618
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,960
Speaker 1: if you are a Democrat and in service of faucism,

619
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:19,440
Speaker 1: cloth masks don't work. Comma, therefore we need and ninety

620
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:22,880
Speaker 1: five masks or even clay. You just told me this one.

621
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:26,640
Speaker 1: What's the latest from the geniuses of our educational establishment

622
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:30,800
Speaker 1: for kids in masking? Yeah, it's crazy, buck, They so.

623
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:33,760
Speaker 1: A lot of educators out there have been saying for

624
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 1: a long time that kids learn by seeing adults move

625
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:43,560
Speaker 1: their lips, particularly when it comes to annunciation, when it

626
00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 1: comes to learning how to read. The CDC now is saying, oh,

627
00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:52,960
Speaker 1: by the way, after two years of requiring kids to

628
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:56,120
Speaker 1: wear you know, normal mask. However you want to classify

629
00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 1: a normal mask, it may actually make sense for young

630
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:05,160
Speaker 1: kids to wear clear masks because they are learning how

631
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:09,239
Speaker 1: to read and or learning a new language, and for

632
00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:14,600
Speaker 1: young children seeing the lips of their instructor and of

633
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,440
Speaker 1: their classmates. It makes total sense. I'm not an expert

634
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:21,600
Speaker 1: in language, but covering up the face does not allow

635
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 1: them to learn how to read, and so their ability

636
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:29,200
Speaker 1: to read or learn a new language is curtailed. So

637
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:32,560
Speaker 1: if you are a young kid who is an immigrant

638
00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:35,640
Speaker 1: and you are trying to learn English, being able to

639
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:39,480
Speaker 1: watch your teacher have her mouth move or his mouth

640
00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:42,400
Speaker 1: move is wildly important. If you are a young child

641
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:47,040
Speaker 1: being taught to read a nunciation consonants, you can see

642
00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:49,759
Speaker 1: the way the lips move is a huge part of

643
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:55,640
Speaker 1: learning that the CDC after two years, Buck is suddenly saying, oh, yeah,

644
00:34:55,680 --> 00:35:00,120
Speaker 1: there's probably some truth to that. We need clear mask

645
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,560
Speaker 1: like masks so you can actually see the mouth on

646
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:08,480
Speaker 1: the other side in order to avoid inhibiting learning. This

647
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:14,080
Speaker 1: is all madness, but basically that's acknowledging now two years

648
00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:17,880
Speaker 1: of further learning deficit for children that have been attending

649
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:22,399
Speaker 1: masked schools with mass teachers. It's amazing, isn't it that

650
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:24,879
Speaker 1: they never stop to think for a second? Wait? Wait,

651
00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:28,880
Speaker 1: hold on, why don't we do a randomized control or

652
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:34,319
Speaker 1: randomized control trial of in the same city, the same place,

653
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:37,200
Speaker 1: so we can't have Oh, but that's because of population dens. Here, Oh,

654
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:40,400
Speaker 1: that's because of compliance. Let's have some schools with masks,

655
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:44,240
Speaker 1: some schools without masks, and really be serious and honest

656
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:46,640
Speaker 1: about whether there's any And by the way, it's not

657
00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:51,000
Speaker 1: enough to say it's inconclusive, because if it's inconclusive from

658
00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:55,120
Speaker 1: the data, that means stop doing the annoying lunacy that

659
00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:58,000
Speaker 1: you're forcing people to do. They should have to prove

660
00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:01,680
Speaker 1: the benefits of these things. Instead, we're in this opposite

661
00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:05,919
Speaker 1: land of unless we can prove beyond any reasonable doubt

662
00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:09,120
Speaker 1: there is no efficacy from these things, we have to

663
00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:12,719
Speaker 1: keep doing them. This is where the mental illness situation,

664
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:16,200
Speaker 1: mass mental illness really comes in. There's no doubt it's

665
00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:21,800
Speaker 1: the biggest failure of American public policy, shutting down schools

666
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:24,960
Speaker 1: in any of our lives. Just about. I really believe

667
00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:29,320
Speaker 1: that all of us failed in allowing this to happen.

668
00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:34,240
Speaker 1: Democrats obviously failed, far worse. Left wingers are to blame

669
00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:36,719
Speaker 1: for why it happened, but everyone out there who wasn't

670
00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 1: able to stop it from happening also failed. When we

671
00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:43,080
Speaker 1: come back, so many different things to dive into, including

672
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:45,840
Speaker 1: the kabuki theater on the Senate floor, will discuss on

673
00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:52,879
Speaker 1: Clay and Buck. You're listening to Clay, Travis, and Buck

674
00:36:52,920 --> 00:37:01,959
Speaker 1: Sextons on the EIB Network five
