1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,400 Speaker 1: Welcome on everybody to the Tuesday edition of The Klaid, 2 00:00:02,440 --> 00:00:05,720 Speaker 1: Travis and Buck Sexton Show. I believe President Trumps taking 3 00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:08,319 Speaker 1: questions right now in the Oval Office about the Iran 4 00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:11,840 Speaker 1: strike team. Can we put that off? And maybe we 5 00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:15,040 Speaker 1: will join him in progress on this. Let me know 6 00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:18,680 Speaker 1: when we've got it qued, because it just started and 7 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 1: we'll have How could you get better updates than killing 8 00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:22,800 Speaker 1: people all over the way? 9 00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:24,200 Speaker 2: There we go a long time. 10 00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:27,840 Speaker 3: They would be the kings and fathers of the roadside 11 00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 3: bomb Solomony. We killed him last term. If we didn't, 12 00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:33,600 Speaker 3: I think it might be a different story today. They 13 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:36,159 Speaker 3: would have been much stronger and smarter than they are. 14 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 3: But they did the roadside bombs. Ninety five percent of 15 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:45,240 Speaker 3: the people lost their legs, arms, had their face wiped out, 16 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:49,159 Speaker 3: just wiped out. I've seen some young people that it's 17 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 3: so sad to watch and that was all Almost ninety 18 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 3: five percent comes from Iran and with Solomony. For Solomonia 19 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:03,240 Speaker 3: love his favorite weapon. He loved the roadside And when 20 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 3: you see people walking around with no legs and no 21 00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:09,480 Speaker 3: arms and a face that's been blown to hell, these 22 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 3: people what they have to go and the way they 23 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 3: have to live. 24 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 2: This is Iran. 25 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:17,399 Speaker 3: When you look at the barracks, the famous barracks, when 26 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 3: you look at the hostages, when you look at a 27 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 3: lot of hostages, when you look at all of the problems, 28 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 3: they were really a purveyor of terror all over the 29 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 3: world for many, many years. And it's something that had 30 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 3: to be done something, And I believe that if we 31 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,200 Speaker 3: didn't because I see where Congress, you know, if I 32 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,959 Speaker 3: didn't do this, guys like Schumer, who are losers, the 33 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 3: Democrats losers, that's why they're not here. Guys like Schumer 34 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 3: would say, well, you should have done this. In other words, 35 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 3: if I did it, it's no good. If I didn't 36 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 3: do it, they would have set the opposite that you 37 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 3: should have done this. But most people feel I'll tell 38 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 3: you what, I have never had more compliments on something 39 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 3: I did. People felt it something that had to be done. 40 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 3: So if we have a little high oil prices for 41 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 3: a little while, but as soon as this ends, those 42 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 3: prices are going to drop, I believe lower than even before. 43 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 2: Go ahead. Please, yes, between. 44 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 3: Terriffs, you. 45 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 2: And US and who you Europe? 46 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:39,359 Speaker 3: Well we we we won on tariffs. Actually somebody said 47 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 3: you actually won the case we won on tariffs. We 48 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 3: had a decision that it was wrong. It was a 49 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 3: very bad decision from certain standpoints. From other standpoints, are 50 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 3: very powerful decision because it reaffirmed all the fact that 51 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 3: we have these all these various forms of tariffs that 52 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 3: we felt right, but it totally reaffirmed it said you 53 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,639 Speaker 3: can use all of these tariffs. So we have all 54 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 3: these vast menus of tariffs and tariffs that have made our 55 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:13,799 Speaker 3: country very rich. We have to charge tariffs to nations 56 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 3: who play with their money, you know, they move their 57 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 3: money up and down like a yo yo. 58 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 2: We have to do. 59 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 3: We have to take care of nations that have been 60 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 3: good to us and fair to us, and we're going 61 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 3: to take care of them. Other nations they haven't, and 62 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 3: we haven't let them take advantage of us. But the 63 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 3: whole thing with tariffs is we had a decision that 64 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 3: as an example, we have a license situation, and the 65 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 3: license is something that allows us to immediately stop all 66 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 3: business with Nobody knew we had this power, but we 67 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 3: do now because of the decision, we have the right 68 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 3: to stop all businesses having to do with a certain country, 69 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 3: have a certain country is not treating us well, the 70 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 3: president with going to Congress with has the right to 71 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 3: stop sort of interested. I have the right to stop, 72 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 3: but under that one law, I didn't have the right 73 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 3: to charge him. So I have the right to license them, 74 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 3: but I don't have the right to charge, which is 75 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 3: frankly ridiculous. But the right was given to us by 76 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 3: the Supreme Court and. 77 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 2: We have the right. 78 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 3: As an example, we talked about Spain. I could tomorrow 79 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 3: stop or today even better stop everything having to do 80 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,479 Speaker 3: with Spain, all business having to do with spaen have 81 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 3: the right to stop it, embargoes, do anything I want 82 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:34,040 Speaker 3: with it, and we may do that with Spain. 83 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:34,479 Speaker 2: All right. 84 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: We'll continue to monitor this from President Trump and the 85 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 1: Oval Office talking about tariffs there, but mainly Clay. I mean, 86 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 1: let's just dive into this a lot of what have 87 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 1: we gotten into, Why did we get into this as 88 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: a country? Why did Trump strike? 89 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 2: Now? 90 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: What's the plan? How long will this go on? It 91 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 1: does open a whole lot of questions. Trump was focusing 92 00:04:55,839 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 1: there to start off on. How people that he said, 93 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 1: as I've approached Tam, I assume heads of state and 94 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:07,839 Speaker 1: others feel extremely relieved that finally something was done about 95 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:12,160 Speaker 1: the growing threat of Iran. But there are certainly still 96 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: questions and a lot of people are anxious to get 97 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 1: a sense as to what the timeline is here with 98 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 1: the game plan is, and of course the enemy gets 99 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: a vote in all this. 100 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:27,840 Speaker 4: There are reports, to update everybody that the leaders of 101 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 4: Iran were meeting to select a new leadership. I don't 102 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 4: know why they're meeting in person, Buck, and we wiped 103 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:39,600 Speaker 4: out the meeting. So what we again? That is We'll 104 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 4: play an audio clip of Trey Yankst on Fox News 105 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 4: reporting that. The other I would say, significant story that 106 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 4: is being covered is why did the strikes happen on 107 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,919 Speaker 4: Saturday at the time that they did. And Marco Rubio 108 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 4: talked about this, and a lot of people are saying, oh, 109 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 4: Israel bullied into taking this action. And President Trump was 110 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 4: just asked about that in the Oval Office cut twenty eight. 111 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 4: Here was his response, Israel. 112 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,600 Speaker 5: Force yours a launch strikes. 113 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 3: Against the wrong and no, I might have forced their hands. 114 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 3: You see, we were having negotiations with these lunatics, and 115 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,359 Speaker 3: it was my opinion that they were going to attack first. 116 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 3: They were going to attack if we didn't do it, 117 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:29,080 Speaker 3: they were going. 118 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 2: To attack first. 119 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 3: I felt strongly about that, and we have great negotiators, 120 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 3: great people, people that do this very successfully and have 121 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 3: done it all their lives, very successful. And based on 122 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 3: the way the negotiation was going, I think they were 123 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 3: going to attack first, and I didn't want that to happen. 124 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:49,039 Speaker 3: So with anything, I might have forced Israel's hand. But 125 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 3: Israel was ready and we were ready, and we've we've 126 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:55,559 Speaker 3: had a very very powerful impact play. 127 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: We also had sent I'm sorry, go ahead, I was 128 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:01,360 Speaker 1: we had a Secretary of State Ruby weight in. Because 129 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 1: this is a lot of the focus right now you're 130 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: seeing from the commentary class out there, it's why did 131 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:08,480 Speaker 1: it have to happen? 132 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 3: Now? 133 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 1: What was the triggering moment for the president? On the 134 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 1: Secretary of State Rubio, This is cut three. He also 135 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: spoke about the decision making process to begin. Look, this 136 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: is an aerial campaign. This is a war against Iran. 137 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: Let's be very clear that is what it is. It 138 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 1: doesn't have boots on the ground yet from America, but 139 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: this is a war. Play cut three. 140 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 6: The President made the very wise decision. We knew that 141 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 6: there was going to be an Israeli action, We knew 142 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 6: that that would precipitate an attack against American forces, and 143 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 6: we knew that if we didn't preemptively go after them 144 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 6: before they launched those attacks, we would suffer higher casualties 145 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 6: and perhaps even higher those killed. And then we would 146 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 6: all be here answering questions about why we knew that 147 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 6: and didn't we went proactively in a defensive way to 148 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 6: prevent them from inflicting higher damage. 149 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 2: Have we not done so? 150 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 6: There would have been hearings on Capitol Hill about how 151 00:07:57,880 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 6: we knew that this was going to happen and we 152 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 6: didn't preemptively to prevent more casualties and more loss of life. 153 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 1: Clay, there are people who are very critical, even from 154 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 1: the right of this administration for this. We should note 155 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 1: that there are some in the base, some people who 156 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: voted for Trump three times and believe very strongly at 157 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: his agenda. They feel like Trump's no wars promise has 158 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 1: been undermined by this. On the other hand, you have 159 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: people like Rubio and Trump himself who were saying, I 160 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 1: don't want wars, but we couldn't let this continue as 161 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 1: it was. The status quo with Iran was not only unacceptable, 162 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:38,680 Speaker 1: but Iran was about to change it. 163 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:41,599 Speaker 4: That is what we are being told I think the 164 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,080 Speaker 4: question that you have to ask yourself. This is the 165 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,959 Speaker 4: analogy I would make if we went back in time too. 166 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 4: You may remember the exact years because you may have 167 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,679 Speaker 4: studied it when you were at CIA. But pretend we 168 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:56,959 Speaker 4: went back in time to nineteen ninety two or ninety 169 00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 4: three or ninety four and we wiped out North Korea's 170 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 4: ability to ever have nuclear weapons? Would that be better 171 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 4: for us today thirty years later? If you could go 172 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 4: back in time and you could keep North Korea from 173 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 4: getting nuclear weapons, what might the world look like? I 174 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 4: think this is my prediction that there would be no 175 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 4: North and South Korea, that at some point in time, 176 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 4: North Korea would have collapsed, the Koreas would be unified, democratic, 177 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 4: and Asia would be stronger. As a result, in the 178 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 4: world would be two. This basically is taking out Iran's 179 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 4: ability to ever become North Korea because Kim Jong nun 180 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:42,079 Speaker 4: is crazy, and a crazy man with nuclear weapons is 181 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 4: a bad combo. But once you have nuclear weapons, it 182 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:49,840 Speaker 4: is rational for countries to want them because then you 183 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 4: are preserved in power. Does that make sense? So basically, 184 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 4: if we could go back in time, and I think 185 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 4: it was Bill Clinton who was in office, and I 186 00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 4: think Bill Clinton may have even said that his number 187 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 4: one regret in office, which certainly has a little bit 188 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 4: of humor tinge to it as well from a geopolitical perspective, 189 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,319 Speaker 4: is not having taken out North Korea's opportunity to ever 190 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,680 Speaker 4: have nuclear weapons before they had nuclear weapons. Here Trump 191 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 4: is doing that. 192 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 1: He also could have taken out Bin Laden by the way, 193 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:18,319 Speaker 1: which is probably that probably. 194 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,680 Speaker 4: Would have also been very good will. 195 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 1: He could have taken out Osama, but he was busy 196 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 1: with Monica. 197 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 4: Well, we've got some clips from Bill and the Epstein 198 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 4: mess as well. But the thing that's crazy here to 199 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 4: me is Trump is actually acting in a way that 200 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 4: probably is not beneficial ultimately for his term in office, 201 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:40,199 Speaker 4: because I do think he probably could have kicked the 202 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 4: can down the road and ended up ensuring that this 203 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 4: wasn't his issue, but somebody coming into the next term 204 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:49,080 Speaker 4: or the term after this really had to deal with 205 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 4: a nuclear run. This is Trump looking into the future 206 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 4: substantially and making what he thinks is the best decision 207 00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:00,719 Speaker 4: generationally for the Middle East. And I could not run. 208 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: It's a guy who's not running again, which also matters, 209 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: I think at this point, and Trump is in that 210 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 1: phase where he's feeling his stuff. He's term two. He 211 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 1: is really right now at the peak of his powers. 212 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 1: Huge first year in his second term, biggest political comeback 213 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 1: in American history to win this term. Great first year. 214 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,719 Speaker 1: Now is the time to do big things. And that's 215 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,200 Speaker 1: really all I feel about this. Now is the time 216 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 1: for a president to try to change their world for 217 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 1: the better in a meaningful way. Is there risk for this? 218 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 2: Absolutely? 219 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: Absolutely there's risk in this. 220 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 2: I do not know. 221 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 1: I would never say this is a sure thing, and 222 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:40,560 Speaker 1: we could look back on this and say that this 223 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 1: was a mistake of timing or a whole range of things. 224 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 1: But I will say this, has Trump let any of 225 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 1: you down so far this term on a national security issue? 226 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 1: Did he mess things up in Venezuela? Has he messed 227 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: things up with Ukraine? He messed things you know, you 228 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,600 Speaker 1: look at the record. I think that he's struck a 229 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: really strong balance on national security between action and caution, 230 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:11,240 Speaker 1: and if he really believed it was time to go, 231 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 1: I was to say this Israel's not forcing Trump to 232 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:17,439 Speaker 1: do anything. Guys, Okay, I'm just gonna come out and 233 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:20,320 Speaker 1: tell you this is the Israeli lobby powerful in America. 234 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 1: Sure are there a lot of Jewish Americans who feel 235 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 1: very passionately about the state of Israel, and they make 236 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:29,839 Speaker 1: their voices heard and they have a substantial influence. Absolutely, 237 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 1: is Trump going to just bend the knee and do 238 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 1: what he's told by Benjamin Not in Yahoo? Absolutely not. 239 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 1: It's just if you know anything about Trump, you didn't 240 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 1: know that's not true. And would Trump do it just 241 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 1: because Netanyahu wanted him to? I do not believe Donald 242 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 1: Trump would do that. I do not believe Donald Trump do. 243 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 1: I agree one hundred percent with that. But this is 244 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 1: also funny because they're simultaneously arguing that Trump is Hitler 245 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 1: and also that Trump will do whatever Israel wants him 246 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 1: to do, which is tough, quite. 247 00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:58,960 Speaker 2: The opposite of Hitler. 248 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 4: That's a tough putt to say, right. 249 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,839 Speaker 1: But cognitive dissonance is the water in which they swim, 250 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:06,719 Speaker 1: of course, so there's no big surprise there. But we'll 251 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:10,559 Speaker 1: get into some of these some of these possibilities. What's 252 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:13,439 Speaker 1: going on now, let's talk about these things. Clay, Well, 253 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: first of all, we've also got to talk about We've 254 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 1: got a Texas primary going on, so we're gonna help 255 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 1: everybody's voting. We got we got some people involved in that. 256 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:25,200 Speaker 1: We're gonna be talking about. Come on, Texas, do us proud. 257 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 1: But we've got the Texas primary to discuss. Actually, a 258 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,680 Speaker 1: really important Supreme Court decision came down to about transgender 259 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 1: youth that I think we should talk about. It's a 260 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 1: big deal, my friends. This is not a little case. 261 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:41,319 Speaker 1: If we weren't starting a war with Iran, there'd be 262 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: a lot more focus on this. We'll talk about it, 263 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: and then, of course, what are we looking on here? Timelines, 264 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:51,080 Speaker 1: what's the goal, what's the what's the opposition look like 265 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 1: on the ground to the regime. We need to discuss 266 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 1: these things and we will. That's where we are on 267 00:13:56,200 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 1: this one. Sanity, insight, a little bit of humor here, 268 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 1: you're in there. That's how we roll. Think about this. 269 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 1: Two decades ago, you could take twenty thousand dollars in 270 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 1: your savings account and you could buy nearly thirty three 271 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,440 Speaker 1: ounces of gold. Today, the same thirty three ounces would 272 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:13,319 Speaker 1: be worth roughly one hundred and sixty five thousand dollars. 273 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 1: Do the math. That's a very good return on your money. 274 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,680 Speaker 1: Smart Americans have been diversifying a portion of their savings 275 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: into precious metals like gold for years now you can 276 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 1: do the same with the help of Birch Gold Group. 277 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 1: The likelihood of gold increasing in value in the future 278 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,240 Speaker 1: is very high. When there's instability around the world, gold 279 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: only increases in value. Yesterday it grew again by a 280 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 1: full percent.

Appreciate all 294 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 4: of you hanging out with US. As we are rolling 295 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:24,360 Speaker 4: through the Tuesday edition of the program, we have got 296 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:29,400 Speaker 4: a big election going on in Texas. It is primary day. 297 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 4: Go vote, Go vote, Go vote either on the Republican 298 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 4: side for one of the three candidates in the Senate. 299 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 4: There are also many different down ballot races always worth mentioning, 300 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 4: or go vote for Jasmine Crockett, who has been treated 301 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 4: unfairly on the Democrat side and deserves the opportunity to 302 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 4: run statewide and prove just how big her audience truly is. 303 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 4: As some of you are embracing Russellnbaugh's famous project Chaos 304 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 4: and ensuring that whomever or the Republican nominee is in 305 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 4: the highly hotly contested Senate race is going to win 306 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 4: if Jasmine Crockett is the nominee. 307 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 2: So we'll see how that goes. 308 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 4: Jason, in New Bronsville, Texas, you're saying it's super crowded 309 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 4: at the polls. You guys can call in and let 310 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 4: us know. Also voting going on in North Carolina and 311 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 4: in Arkansas. So this is the very first day that 312 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 4: people are weighing in on the upcoming midterm elections in November. Jason, 313 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 4: what did you see. 314 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 5: When I walked up, my first thought was, my goodness, 315 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 5: it feels like the general election. It was pretty packed. 316 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 5: I have to admit I thought I was going to 317 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 5: walk right in and vote. And I waited about fifteen 318 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 5: to twenty minutes, and when I came out, the line 319 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 5: was even longer. Going by the guy with ponytail test 320 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 5: it felt like a more conservative crowd. And then on 321 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:54,880 Speaker 5: the ladies' side, with the angry tattooed arms, I looked 322 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 5: like I'm married to an equally liberal guide who doesn't 323 00:16:57,440 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 5: know how to work the lawn. So I'm sitting here angry. 324 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 5: Think the conservative women outnumbered those kinds of ladies. And 325 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 5: so that's a live report from Guadaloupe County here and 326 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 5: beautiful in New Broncos, Texas Republic thereof. And I called 327 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 5: in last week but didn't get a chance to get 328 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 5: on the air to say this. But the only thing 329 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 5: that can bring the left joy at this point in 330 00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 5: time is some harm befalling the American President. It's pretty 331 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 5: dark thing to say, but if you lean in and listen, 332 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,639 Speaker 5: you'll know that it's true.

The 384 00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 8: United States Senate is not a retirement community. 385 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 2: It's time for. 386 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 8: The next week, the next generation to step band.

We live in 397 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 8: the greatest country in the world. And what I've realized 398 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:27,439 Speaker 8: is that as a war fighter, and I've literally been 399 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 8: shot at, I've been taking a lot of hits online, 400 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,120 Speaker 8: taking a lot of hits on TV. But it means 401 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:33,920 Speaker 8: we are right over the target zone and we are 402 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:36,160 Speaker 8: a threat, and I know the people of Texas are 403 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,119 Speaker 8: going to make sure that we finish up strong and 404 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:39,399 Speaker 8: term limit a twenty. 405 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 2: Four year incumbent. 406 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 4: You've been on with us before, Congressman. I appreciate the time, 407 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,800 Speaker 4: and I was watching with you this week. You talked 408 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:50,159 Speaker 4: and did an interview with Steven A. Smith and you 409 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 4: went after Gavin Newsome, and I loved it over his 410 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 4: comments I believe he made in Atlanta where he said, Hey, 411 00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 4: I'm a nine to sixty SAT guy. People who did 412 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 4: not hear what you said about Gavin Newsome, What was 413 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 4: your reaction when you saw that clip? And you know, 414 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,399 Speaker 4: basically he said, I can't read a book. I'm just 415 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 4: like you. 416 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:13,880 Speaker 8: You know, it's the idea of benevolent White liberals are 417 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:15,719 Speaker 8: some of the most racist people I've ever seen in 418 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:19,359 Speaker 8: my life. I call that the soft bigotry of low expectations. 419 00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 8: This is literally what they think about us. 420 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:21,439 Speaker 2: You know. 421 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 8: Not only do they think that we can't read and 422 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 8: we can't do well on our SAT, they also think 423 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 8: that we are too stupid to have an ID to vote. 424 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:30,439 Speaker 2: That's what this whole thing is about. 425 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:33,080 Speaker 8: They think so little of people of color and black 426 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 8: and brown people that they have to pander to us 427 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:38,200 Speaker 8: in the same way the Hillary couldn't walk around with 428 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,440 Speaker 8: her hot sauce, in the same way that Joe Biden said, 429 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 8: if you don't vote for me, then you went black. 430 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 8: All of their issues are put on full display, and 431 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:48,560 Speaker 8: I hate to bring into people that is not the 432 00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 8: Republican Party that I'm a part of today. I represent 433 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 8: a white majority district and a suburb of Houston, Texas 434 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 8: that President Trump would have won by twenty points, and 435 00:21:57,880 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 8: I won by twenty five points. I have the honor 436 00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 8: are running for the United States Senate, and we are 437 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,119 Speaker 8: trending in the top three no matter what when this 438 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 8: day ends, A black man that's in his early forties, 439 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 8: that is the great great grandson of a man who 440 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,679 Speaker 8: was born on a plantation running as a Conservative, is 441 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:17,919 Speaker 8: beingdged not by the color of his skin, but by 442 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 8: the content of his character. And that is just not 443 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 8: the Democrat Party. So that's a huge offense, huge offense 444 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 8: for what he said, because again I caught a soft 445 00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 8: bigotry of low expectations. And I'm here to tell him 446 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 8: that as a family that had three West Corners in 447 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 8: one house, my brother earned his masters and from Harvard 448 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:38,320 Speaker 8: Business School. I earned three master's degrees from Cornell University. 449 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 8: I'm here to tell you we don't fit that mold. 450 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 8: We believe in excellence, not just for black people, but 451 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 8: for all Americans. I am sick of the division along 452 00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 8: racial lines. 453 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:48,639 Speaker 2: From the left. 454 00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:52,440 Speaker 1: We're speaking of Congressman Wesley Hunt, and he is running 455 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 1: for that open Senate seat now in this great state 456 00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:01,080 Speaker 1: of Texas, and Congressman or the one that's up for grabs. 457 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 1: I should say, congressmen, appreciate very much you being here 458 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 1: with us. Obviously you have a military background. You've been 459 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,879 Speaker 1: talking about that service to the nation is very early, 460 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 1: and so I'm not asking for you to solve the 461 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 1: situation in Iran, but as somebody who has been down range, 462 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 1: who has had the bullets flying in both directions, just 463 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 1: I wanted your thoughts on how you're viewing what's going 464 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 1: on right now with the ongoing air campaign, the Trump 465 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:32,159 Speaker 1: administration deciding the red line had been crossed. Time to 466 00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:34,920 Speaker 1: bring the fight to the mollocracy in Tehran. 467 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 2: This is the definition of peace through strength. 468 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 8: We now have a president who is in charge. When 469 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 8: you play stupid games, you win stupid prizes. When a 470 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:48,199 Speaker 8: red line is drawn, and I think they got the 471 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 8: hit last year when we bombed them and ridded their 472 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 8: ability to have a nuclear weapon, and then they never listened. 473 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,640 Speaker 8: They continued on their path. They continued on the path 474 00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:58,920 Speaker 8: of funding terror, They depended on their path of verding 475 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:01,800 Speaker 8: our allies. And guess will the red line is now 476 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:05,199 Speaker 8: you get palace of missiles, not palace of cash. That 477 00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 8: is a difference between this administration and Barack Obama and 478 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 8: certainly Joe Biden, who wouldn't have any idea what was going. 479 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 2: On these two. Strength is this. It doesn't mean that 480 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 2: we do nothing. What it means is. 481 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 8: That when it is time to posture, when it is 482 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 8: time to attack, and when it is time to be 483 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,400 Speaker 8: strategic in the way in which we do it, we 484 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 8: must do it to keep our lives and to keep 485 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 8: us safe. My heart goes out, my heart flows out, 486 00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:29,920 Speaker 8: and are freight for these soldiers last night that did 487 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 8: not make it home. I'm pray sure, because I know 488 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:34,160 Speaker 8: what it feels like and I've been there. But also 489 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 8: I will tell you that's what we signed up for. 490 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:40,000 Speaker 8: If we're in harm's way, sometimes it does mean our lives. 491 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 8: But what I loved about what Pete Hagson said yesterday 492 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:43,720 Speaker 8: was this, ignore the left. 493 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 2: This is not World War three. 494 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 8: This is a strategic move to weaken them and not 495 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:52,119 Speaker 8: allow them to harm us, to harm other nations. And 496 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 8: also they crossed the red line, and these are the consequences. 497 00:24:55,800 --> 00:25:00,240 Speaker 8: President Trump has always always campaigned on and talked about 498 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:03,200 Speaker 8: out not getting into more endless wars that cost those 499 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,959 Speaker 8: three trillion dollars our sons and daughters lives, and of 500 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:09,199 Speaker 8: course ten years he doesn't want to do that, he 501 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:11,359 Speaker 8: never will. But we also have to ensure that we 502 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 8: are respected across the world. 503 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,160 Speaker 4: When you look at your state of Texas, you're talking 504 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,920 Speaker 4: about your background, I think it's a really compelling story 505 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,920 Speaker 4: and your service for the country. But I think also 506 00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:25,400 Speaker 4: your age is important here because what we saw in 507 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 4: twenty twenty four is a lot of men and I 508 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 4: know women, a lot of women out there listening to 509 00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 4: but a lot of men, white, Black, Asian and a 510 00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:36,879 Speaker 4: Hispanic are just over the cultural bs that the Democrat 511 00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 4: Party is putting out. Your candidacy, I think is an 512 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 4: important marker of that. But just speaking as a normal guy, 513 00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:46,399 Speaker 4: how often are you traveling around in Texas and just 514 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 4: meeting people who are not particularly political, but the cultural 515 00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 4: issues of the Democrat Party, men and women's sports, the 516 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 4: effeminate nature frankly of the party itself. A lot of 517 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 4: dudes of all backgrounds, particularly younger guy are just saying, yeah, 518 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 4: this is not for me. I'm out. 519 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,399 Speaker 8: Yeah, we are finding out that common sense is not 520 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 8: so common and that's a great point, especially young men 521 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 8: that I have seen. As I've sild all over this state, 522 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 8: I've been over fifty thoughts all over Texas over the 523 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:15,639 Speaker 8: course of the past few months. Has been incredible to 524 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 8: see just all people of different racist, religious callers and 525 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,920 Speaker 8: creedies that are actually coming towards the side of common sense. 526 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 2: You are exactly right. 527 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,159 Speaker 8: We are dealing with people that cannot tell you the 528 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,800 Speaker 8: difference between a man and a woman. It's the most 529 00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:30,080 Speaker 8: ridiculous thing I've ever seen. And if you can't come 530 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 8: up with that simple reason and rationale, if you don't 531 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 8: understand the difference between a man and a woman, then 532 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 8: I don't want to hear anything about your thoughts and 533 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 8: feelings on policy and won't be talking about God like 534 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 8: me and toxic masculinity. Well, I'll tell you what about 535 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:45,920 Speaker 8: toxic masculinity. Toxic masculinity is why this country exists. You see, 536 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,960 Speaker 8: there are brave men that storm the beaches of Normandy 537 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 8: into a barrage of machine gun fire to I'm sure 538 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 8: that the entire world doesn't speak German. That's called toxic masculinity, 539 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 8: and we need more of it in this country. We 540 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 8: need men to be men, we need women to be women. 541 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,120 Speaker 8: And look, I'm the kind of guy and I got 542 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:05,040 Speaker 8: two I got three babies. I got two little girls 543 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:06,719 Speaker 8: and a little boy, and I know how I am 544 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:08,679 Speaker 8: raising them. I'm raising them in the ways of Christ. 545 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 8: We know the difference between a man and a woman, 546 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 8: but we also understand that we have to respect one 547 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,960 Speaker 8: another and respect each other's strengths and weaknesses, but also 548 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:19,000 Speaker 8: understand that there is a construct here and that construct 549 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:22,159 Speaker 8: of knowing when it's time to be a real man 550 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 8: is exactly what the Republican Party stands Florida, and quite frankly, 551 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:28,720 Speaker 8: it's why President Trump was reelected. You don't have to 552 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 8: question that. You have to question President Trump's masculinity. You 553 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:38,160 Speaker 8: have to question Marco Rubios or JD Vance's masculinity. These 554 00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 8: are strong men and also Susie wild who is the 555 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 8: chief of staff, is a strong woman who I also 556 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 8: know well. At the end of the day, we need 557 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:49,320 Speaker 8: to have common sense and the cultural wars, the division, 558 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 8: the division along racial lines, the division along gender ideology. 559 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:57,040 Speaker 8: Also here in Texas, we're dealing with the Islamification of 560 00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 8: Texas and understanding that this is America. And by the way, 561 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 8: you could have whatever religion that you want to celebrate 562 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 8: and you want to use in your own home, but 563 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 8: you don't get to move to a place, start up 564 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:10,080 Speaker 8: your own on place, and then live under Shuria law. 565 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 8: We have our own constitution and our own set of laws. 566 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 8: I am the person that's saying that that's the stop. 567 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 8: We are not going to do that, because when you 568 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 8: come to our country, you must assimilate through our laws 569 00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:21,439 Speaker 8: and our rules, just like we have to assimilate to 570 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 8: another country's laws and rules when we go visit them 571 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 8: or we go live in their country. These things are 572 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 8: common sense and this is what the Republican Party stands 573 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:34,240 Speaker 8: for today. This is my platform, and what I really 574 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:37,160 Speaker 8: hope is that people continue to see just how crazy 575 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 8: the Left is and as long as they continue to 576 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:43,120 Speaker 8: behave this way, we're going to continue to win elections. 577 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 1: Speaking of Congress Wesley Hunt, he's running for Senate in Texas. 578 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 1: You're just talking about the crazy left. Let's talk a 579 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 1: little more about the crazy left. There are some Democrats 580 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:55,080 Speaker 1: who if you were to come through this primary, you 581 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 1: would be facing one of them. It would be either 582 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:00,720 Speaker 1: a Talla Rico or Crockett. From what I can gather, 583 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 1: what do you make of it? Which match up do 584 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 1: you prefer? But what does it also tell the people 585 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:10,200 Speaker 1: of Texas that those are the options the Democrat Party 586 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:10,960 Speaker 1: puts forward? 587 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 8: Well, it's looking at My guess is if I had 588 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:16,360 Speaker 8: to guess, it's looking like it's going to be James Tylerico. 589 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 8: But please know that I would much rather adjast mc crockett. 590 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,720 Speaker 8: Quite frankly, I would dream of debating her here in Texas. 591 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 8: I think that would be hilarious. You have two black 592 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:26,360 Speaker 8: people that are roughly the same. 593 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,160 Speaker 2: Age, and one has one vision. 594 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 8: Of America in Texas and I certainly have a different 595 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 8: vision of America in Texas. 596 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 2: One is a victim. I am a victor. 597 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,160 Speaker 8: I want to talk about how amazing this country is, 598 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 8: to talk about our progress, and those two are the 599 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,320 Speaker 8: are the kinds of candidates that want to take this 600 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 8: country back backwards. All they run on is race, All 601 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 8: they run on is a division, and all they run 602 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 8: on is some of this nonsensical, non common sense stuff 603 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:53,680 Speaker 8: that we were just talking about regarding the difference between 604 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:55,680 Speaker 8: the man and the woman, and men playing at women's 605 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:59,480 Speaker 8: sports and not understanding what it means to be in 606 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 8: America and keeping our culture and taxed, and so again. 607 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 8: I got in this race here in Texas because I 608 00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 8: wanted to give the people of Texas an option. I 609 00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:11,560 Speaker 8: wanted to give them an option of somebody who is young, 610 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 8: who believes in term limits, who is a combat veteran, 611 00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 8: who was the first person in the country to endorse 612 00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 8: President Trump this last cycle. I was one of his 613 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:22,080 Speaker 8: top surrogates when he was running in the most consequential 614 00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:25,000 Speaker 8: election of our lifetime. I could win this primary, and 615 00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:28,120 Speaker 8: I can win the general against against Jazmon Procket or 616 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 8: James Talerifo. But doctor being really any issues, I'm already 617 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:32,600 Speaker 8: outperforming both. 618 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 2: Ken and John. Had to head against. 619 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 8: Either one of them, because the matches between me and 620 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 8: them is a nightmare matchup for the Democrat Party. What 621 00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:42,680 Speaker 8: do they say when someone like Wesley Hunt comes out 622 00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:46,479 Speaker 8: of the Republican primary. Someone who who believes in this country, 623 00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 8: loves this country, is black, is a combat veteran, is 624 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:53,720 Speaker 8: a believer in Christ. Most importantly, what do they say 625 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:56,160 Speaker 8: about me? How are they possibly going to attack me? 626 00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:58,840 Speaker 8: And I got this race because I wanted to give 627 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,720 Speaker 8: the people of Texas and our and when loser draw, 628 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 8: I am always a winner because I am a believer 629 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:07,400 Speaker 8: in price. But today I really do pray and hope 630 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 8: that the people of Texas get out, get this right. 631 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 8: At a minimum, we term limit a twenty four year 632 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:17,480 Speaker 8: incumbent who is a Bush era Lincoln Project Republican that's 633 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 8: been around for way too long. 634 00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:20,680 Speaker 2: It is time to move on, and. 635 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 8: It's time for the next generation of leadership. 636 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 2: To step up. 637 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,040 Speaker 4: And the expectation last question for you, and we know 638 00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:28,720 Speaker 4: you're busy again, everybody out there in Texas get out 639 00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 4: and vote today as primary day, is that there will 640 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:35,720 Speaker 4: be two advance from the Republican Senate race.

Texas primary 701 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:38,319 Speaker 4: voting underway and there has been a monstrous amount of 702 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:41,440 Speaker 4: money spent already, as many of you living in Texas 703 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:45,799 Speaker 4: can undoubtedly attest, this is the most expensive primary I 704 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:47,920 Speaker 4: believe in the history of any Senate race. 705 00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:48,960 Speaker 2: On both sides. 706 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:52,320 Speaker 4: A lot of money has been sent spent. Ray in 707 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:56,960 Speaker 4: Houston wants to weigh in, Ray, what you got good morning. 708 00:34:57,200 --> 00:34:59,400 Speaker 9: Thank you for having me. I haven't felt this strongly 709 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:03,040 Speaker 9: since I tried call into Russia's show many years ago. 710 00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:07,240 Speaker 9: You guys have done great. I just listened to Wes. 711 00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 9: Wes is a great candidate. I'm one of his constituents. 712 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 9: It's a shame he's not probably not going to be 713 00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 9: in the top two. He's certainly the future of the 714 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 9: Republican Party here in Texas. I can't say enough good 715 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 9: about it, and I wish he could be centered. Unfortunately, 716 00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 9: most of the state doesn't know him. I don't see 717 00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:29,439 Speaker 9: him doing any better than a third, and I wish 718 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:32,080 Speaker 9: people woul vote him over Paxton. Paxton is probably the 719 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:34,880 Speaker 9: worst candidate we've ever had in the state. He's got 720 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:38,400 Speaker 9: more baggage than the Clintons. He's highly ethically challenged, and 721 00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 9: I think it's pretty well proven that he's been blatantly dishonest, 722 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:45,320 Speaker 9: and that's no role for an attorney general to play. 723 00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:49,439 Speaker 9: And I also think that enough independence and Republicans would 724 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:51,839 Speaker 9: sit out the general election that he very much puts 725 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:52,440 Speaker 9: the seat at risk. 726 00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:54,880 Speaker 4: If you let me ask you this, If that's true, 727 00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:58,960 Speaker 4: how has he won state wide? Paxton as attorney general 728 00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:02,360 Speaker 4: pretty comfortably every time, even with a lot of opposition. 729 00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 9: Well, he's got a loyal his final of his ethical problems, 730 00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:09,200 Speaker 9: he has a loyal mega following it in. Also, I 731 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:11,440 Speaker 9: think a lot of people feel that it was a 732 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:13,840 Speaker 9: bit of a witch hunt when he was impeached, and 733 00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:16,360 Speaker 9: that was miss handle. He had some very prominent Republicans 734 00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:20,080 Speaker 9: in his camp at that time. That's the best explanation 735 00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:22,719 Speaker 9: I can give. Of course, you know Texas suffer is 736 00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:24,200 Speaker 9: the same problem out of states too. A lot of 737 00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:25,840 Speaker 9: Republicans don't show up to vote. 738 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:27,919 Speaker 4: Yeah, well that's a challenge. Thank you for the call. 739 00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:30,520 Speaker 4: We want everybody to get out and vote and rest assured. 740 00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:34,719 Speaker 4: Whoever the ultimate winner is in the Texas Republican primary, 741 00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:37,120 Speaker 4: we're going to be working our asses off to make 742 00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:40,920 Speaker 4: sure that they beat either Tall Rico or Crockett
