I know it 5 00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:19,560 Speaker 1: is nothing new that the media lies to you. We've 6 00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:21,639 Speaker 1: said it on this show so many times that it's 7 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,960 Speaker 1: almost like an unofficial mantra. But the media does a 8 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 1: lot to you constantly, the lot of all Americans. They 9 00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:31,320 Speaker 1: lie to themselves. But you've seen a shift, and this 10 00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:34,919 Speaker 1: is clear with the Hunter Biden story as we now 11 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:38,720 Speaker 1: have it, because it's a condensed enough period on an 12 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 1: important enough issue that it's clear as day what's going 13 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 1: on here. Let me tell you the old model, or 14 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:50,240 Speaker 1: the old thinking about this was that the mainstream mediaize 15 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:55,880 Speaker 1: to you largely out of a subconscious bias. They don't 16 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 1: even know how liberal they are. They don't even know 17 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 1: how much they're Democrat activists pretending to do journalism. So 18 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:10,760 Speaker 1: what they do is to them completely fair minded. Now 19 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 1: that's insane and it's obviously wrong and delusional, but they 20 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 1: at least can consider themselves. They at least think they 21 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:21,759 Speaker 1: have that going for them. They believe that at whatever level. 22 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,360 Speaker 1: But now when you see what's happened with this Hunter 23 00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 1: Biden storyline, which I also I'm still not sure that 24 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:33,000 Speaker 1: that alone would have had a dramatic effect on the election, 25 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: But we can't know. That's the problem. That's the point. 26 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: Now it's too late. We can't run the experiment again. 27 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 1: But the Hunter Biden story was suppressed in such a 28 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:45,560 Speaker 1: way that anyone can see. It is very clear, It 29 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 1: is very obvious that they did this intentionally, and they 30 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 1: did this without any remorse, without any sense that they 31 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 1: were betraying their profession, that they have scruples or ethics. 32 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 1: It's not about that anymore. This is the change. It's 33 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 1: not that they think they're being fair minded. Now they 34 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 1: just weaponize whatever they've got. Now it's out, it's all 35 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:17,639 Speaker 1: out in the open. They are on team Destroyed, Team 36 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: destroyed Trump, Team help Biden. That's what they're doing. That 37 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 1: is the plan. That's what's going on here. So the 38 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: media is a disgrace, and social media has now amplified it. 39 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 1: And I do believe I believe that there is right 40 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 1: now a greater degree of aggressiveness and brazenness from the 41 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 1: mainstream media than there's been a long time, because They've 42 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 1: got social media now running cover for them, so they 43 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,359 Speaker 1: figure now is the time. Now is their moment. Crush 44 00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 1: the opposition, lie to everyone's faces, get away with it, 45 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:04,640 Speaker 1: rub our noses in it. That's what they're doing. What 46 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 1: examples could I point to on this? Oh, they're they're 47 00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: a countless ones right now. But let's just start before 48 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:13,520 Speaker 1: I get into how disgraceful and dishonest they were on 49 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 1: this story and how it's clear now and this is 50 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 1: the real takeaway. This was not an accident. They didn't 51 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 1: really think that the Hunter Biden laptop was stolen or hacked. 52 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,079 Speaker 1: That was all a lie, and they knew it was 53 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,920 Speaker 1: a lie. They didn't really believe any of this was 54 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 1: Russian disinformation. They knew that was a lie. The point 55 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: now is that with social media running cover for them, 56 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 1: backing them up, magnifying their lies, they feel comfortable doing 57 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: whatever they've got to do to achieve power. They don't care. 58 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: They don't care that you and I know, I think 59 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 1: that's important. We used to believe that if we held 60 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 1: a light up to them, if we were able to 61 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: express our outrage age and how they violated their principles, 62 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,839 Speaker 1: and they're not really being journalists, that there was some 63 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: cause and effect there, that there would be some responsiveness 64 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 1: from their side. I mean, I think that was always overstated. 65 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 1: But they don't care what you think. They don't care 66 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:19,559 Speaker 1: what anybody who's not a Biden supporting Trump hating leftist thinks. 67 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: They simply do not care. Does not matter to them. 68 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 1: We are now in a post journalism world in this 69 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 1: country where all we have are these warring propaganda machines, 70 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,159 Speaker 1: and now propaganda can be for the good. Right. The 71 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 1: Allies engaged in propaganda during World War Two against the Nazis. 72 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: It was good propaganda. Right, So let's understand that that 73 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 1: word can usually have a negative connotation. But what else 74 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: we can call it polemics, we could call it fierce debate, 75 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: whatever you want to say. We have to defeat their arguments, 76 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 1: that we have to actually defeat their power grabs, or 77 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,599 Speaker 1: else they'll just continue to do this and continue to 78 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:05,040 Speaker 1: get away with it. So here we have perfect example. 79 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 1: I mean, then there's so many examples that we could 80 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 1: choose from, but here's a perfect example of this politico 81 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 1: which considers itself to be an insidery politics first publication 82 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,600 Speaker 1: in DC. I mean, it's it's a bunch of libs. 83 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: They could the politicals for people who couldn't get jobs 84 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 1: at the New York Times. But you know, we're almost there, 85 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 1: pretty close. And they put out this before the election. 86 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 1: I mean, you look at this stuff and it's it's 87 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:39,719 Speaker 1: just amazing. Hunter Biden's story, this is before the election, 88 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:44,480 Speaker 1: this is in October. Is Russian disinfo. Dozens of former 89 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 1: intel officials say more than fifty former intelligence officials signed 90 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 1: a letter casting doubt on the providence of a New 91 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: York Post story on the former president's son. What does 92 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 1: that even mean? Who cares what fifty former intelligence officials 93 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 1: think about the New York Post reported? What do they 94 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 1: know about it that the New York Post doesn't. The 95 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 1: answer was nothing. But this was a smokescreen. This was 96 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 1: a classic smokescreen operation. Just put something up there to 97 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:20,119 Speaker 1: obscure what's really going on. That's what they did. Now 98 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 1: you go to the story from this week, Justice Apartment's 99 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 1: interest in Hunter Biden covered more than taxes actually covered. 100 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 1: Federal prosecutors also investigated foreign ties, including possible money laundering 101 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,920 Speaker 1: and money launders. A serious crime. It's a federal felony. 102 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 1: You can go to prison for quite a few years 103 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,159 Speaker 1: for that one. So this is the same publication a 104 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,920 Speaker 1: few weeks apart. And I think that our belief that 105 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 1: what we will usually fall back on an our side. 106 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:53,480 Speaker 1: As see look at how dumb they look. Ha ha. 107 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: The journals. The journals are being silly journals again, and 108 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 1: I'm here to tell you that's not how they view it. 109 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 1: The New York Times, CNN, the Washington Post, MSNBC, all 110 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 1: of major news publications, platforms, channels across the country that 111 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 1: are not explicitly right of center, all of them, all 112 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 1: of them now have trended toward this. But the big 113 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: players in the space, CNN, the Times, the Post, they 114 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 1: don't do these things and then feel embarrassed when they 115 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 1: get caught. They're doing them now and they're saying, what 116 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 1: are you gonna do about it? And the answer, and 117 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you this, and not a lot of 118 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: other people will the answer on the right is we 119 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 1: got to figure that out. Because we don't have a 120 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 1: good answer yet. People ask me what can we do? 121 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 1: And I share all of their frustration. I mean, I'm 122 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 1: seething over stuff like this when I dig into it, 123 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 1: I'm doing this research, I I just want to just 124 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 1: shout profanity when I see this stuff happening. But they 125 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 1: do it now, and they look you in the eyes 126 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 1: and they say that's right, and it worked. This is 127 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 1: the Harry Reid school, and the Democrats do this all 128 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 1: the time and there and the media now is just 129 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 1: open about it. Remember what Harry Reid said about the 130 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 1: completely baseless smear. I'm no Mitt Romney fan, as you know. 131 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 1: But Mitt Romney has always paid his taxes. Okay, Mit 132 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: Romney is not a is not a guy who hasn't failed, 133 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 1: hasn't filed tax returns in ten years, No way at boy, scout, 134 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:38,679 Speaker 1: absolutely not. Okay, that guy pays his taxes. Is he rich? 135 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:40,559 Speaker 1: Is he a plutocrat? Is he a sell out? Sure? 136 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 1: But way not that there's nothing wrong being rich. We 137 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 1: should all be so lucky. But here we are now 138 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: looking at the true manifestation of the philosophy that Harry 139 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 1: Reid very clearly outlined for us when he was asked, sir, 140 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: what do you what do you think now about the 141 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 1: fact that you lied about Mitt Romney's tax returns. He 142 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 1: clearly did his responsible will. He didn't win, did he. 143 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 1: That's what the entire mainstream media. They're all laughing at 144 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 1: us now behind closed doors. We sit here and we say, see, 145 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 1: you guys, don't do what you say you're gonna do. 146 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 1: And they giggle in our faces and say, oh, yeah, sorry, 147 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: I guess we made that mistake. I guess we had 148 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 1: a little bit of a slip up on the Hunter 149 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 1: Biden stuff. Oh we'll do better in the next election. Sure. 150 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,959 Speaker 1: In the meantime, enjoy being shut down. Enjoy having your 151 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 1: conservative websites and commentators people like me shut down on 152 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 1: Twitter and Facebook and YouTube. And who knows what Google's doing? 153 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 1: Google's the most powerful company in the world right now, 154 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 1: Google's the most powerful company in the world. All in 155 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: we don't even know what they're doing. Who do you 156 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 1: think's gonna stop them? Oh? You think a bunch of 157 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: Republicans who are getting a lot of money from big tech. 158 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 1: Do you think Mike Lee is gonna all of a 159 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: sudden be the great savior of the Republic against the 160 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: big tech oligarchs who are handing our country over to 161 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 1: the radical left. I don't think so. Not that guy 162 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 1: here we are seeing it couldn't be any more clear, 163 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 1: couldn't be any more obvious. They do this now, and 164 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: they don't apologize. They do it because it is the mission. 165 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 1: This is not something that just occurs, This isn't an 166 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 1: unwanted byproduct of their political aspirations. This is how they 167 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 1: do what they do. And now we get to what 168 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 1: can we all do about it? The answer is stop 169 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 1: trusting them on anything. Don't read them, don't support them, 170 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 1: don't click on them, don't accept it when they put 171 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 1: someone forward who's, oh, well, we've got some conservative voices 172 00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 1: at CNN. No they don't. They do not not that 173 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 1: are worth a damn. So don't do it. You all 174 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 1: have the ability to vote with your dollars. You all 175 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 1: have the ability to be a part of this movement 176 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 1: based on who you support, who you listen to, who 177 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 1: you help. And I tell you openly, please make me 178 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: one of them. If you're listening to this show, get 179 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: as many people as you can in your orbit to 180 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 1: listen this because you think they're being told this message elsewhere. 181 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 1: Do you think that any friend of yours, and you know, 182 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 1: good patriotic Americans who probably aren't that into the news cycle, 183 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 1: aren't as into politics as you are. If you're listening 184 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 1: to this, you know they're they're they're listening to you know, NPR, 185 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:38,680 Speaker 1: and they're listening to PBS and there you know, they 186 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 1: they're trying to get information too, and they're just being 187 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 1: constantly propagandized too. They're being brainwashed. It's not their fault. 188 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 1: Brainwashing is very effective if you if you study and 189 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 1: if you look at cults. There's actually some stories on 190 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 1: this recently. A lot of very smart people fall for cults, 191 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 1: usually because they think they're too smart to fall for 192 00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:01,559 Speaker 1: a cult. Same thing as true a brainwash. You've got 193 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: to be very aware, you've got to be self effacing. 194 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 1: And the dominant media, unfortunately, the liberal media, the mainstream, 195 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 1: they're achieving a position again where they can just fully 196 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,720 Speaker 1: stifle the other side. They don't have to pretend anymore 197 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 1: that there should be balanced in media and you know, 198 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 1: equal time and fairness doctrine and all this stuff. No, 199 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,439 Speaker 1: no, no no, no, they want the same way they want 200 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: absolute political dominance. They're going for absolute media dominance. And 201 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 1: they're in a better position now than they've been in 202 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 1: a very long time. And we all need to be 203 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:39,559 Speaker 1: aware of that. Fox News alone and a handful of 204 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 1: you know, radio personalities, and a couple of publications. Not enough, 205 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: not enough. If it were enough, Joe Biden wouldn't have gotten. However, 206 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 1: many years, seventy or eighty eighty million votes. I think 207 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:56,960 Speaker 1: it is what they're saying now, right, eighty four million 208 00:12:58,000 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 1: or eighty eighty million. I mean, Joe Biden, you got 209 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 1: million more than Obomber, right, so let's call it eighty million. 210 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 1: Joe Biden wouldn't have been able to get that. But 211 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 1: the propaganda machines are very powerful, and I know there's 212 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 1: more will dig into this Hunter Biden stuff. I've also 213 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 1: seen people now calling did anyone call for a special 214 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 1: counsel into Hunter Biden before I did? I'm just curious 215 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 1: because I put that out on Twitter and it started 216 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 1: to catch fire, and now I'm hearing a lot of 217 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: people say, oh, we should have a special counsel for 218 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden. Yeah, we should. In fact, this is a 219 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:32,679 Speaker 1: perfect example of what we should have a special counsel 220 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 1: for a criminal investigation involving the son of a possibly 221 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,680 Speaker 1: incoming president. That's when you appoint it, and you appoint 222 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 1: it now. You don't wait until there's another president who 223 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 1: happens to be the one whose son would be under 224 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:48,960 Speaker 1: criminal investigation. We need to reorient our thinking a bit 225 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:52,320 Speaker 1: on this. We've caught them in the fraud about it's 226 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,120 Speaker 1: no one really could have believed it was Russian disinformation, 227 00:13:55,200 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 1: But that was the disinformation. The claim was the deceit. 228 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 1: That was the whole point, and at some level it 229 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 1: was successful. At some level it worked. And all that 230 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 1: means is they're going to do it again. There's no 231 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 1: good faith, there's no common ground, there's no reaching across 232 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,679 Speaker 1: to the other side of the media and saying can't 233 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,320 Speaker 1: we all agree on the following can't we have fair 234 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: rules of the road. No, we are now in all 235 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 1: out political media war. That's where we are. We need 236 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 1: to understand that. And everybody has a role to play. 237 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 1: Everybody can choose who they watch, who they listen to, 238 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 1: who they tell their friends, who they support, and the 239 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 1: ideas that come with all of that. So you absolutely 240 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 1: every day are making choices that play a role in 241 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 1: this fight. Don't forget that.

Now let's 244 00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 1: get into some of the best exchanges to identify the smug, 245 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 1: intentional dishonesty and overall idiocy of so many in the 246 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 1: mainstream media. And we're talking about some of the most 247 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 1: established names in journalism, people who have a fancy accent 248 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 1: and work on a specific kind of presentation on television, 249 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 1: and then everyone's supposed to think they're so smart just 250 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 1: because they have this very pompous accent, and it's all 251 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: really just like they're an actor. But we think they're 252 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 1: smart anyway for no reason. Christian I'm um Pool. You'll 253 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 1: remember perhaps she had this exchange when the Hunter Biden 254 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 1: laptop was exposed, when we got into all this, she 255 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 1: had this exchange on CNN and you gotta hear at 256 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 1: play one. Okay, you know what. Also, the United States 257 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 1: government says, the FBI says this laptop is not Russian disinformation. 258 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 1: So what are you talking about here? This laptop is real. 259 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: It's not just the laptop. There's other emails, there's text messages. 260 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 1: They are real. So according to there's this government I 261 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 1: verifying everybody to look at that. But that's not what 262 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 1: we're hearing from. This is one of the most power 263 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 1: because families in watching this, the Biden family and you're okay, 264 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 1: you're okay, with our interest being sailed out to profit 265 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 1: Joe Biden and his family, when when we're suffering during 266 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 1: a pandemic from communist China, keeps doing deals with communist Okay, 267 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 1: as you know perfectly well, I'm a journalist and a 268 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 1: reporter and I follow the facts and there has never 269 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 1: been any issues in terms of corruption. Now let me 270 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 1: ask you this. Yesterday the FBI. The FBI had that 271 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:56,040 Speaker 1: I'm talking about reporting and any evidence. I'm talking to 272 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 1: you now, Okay, I would talking if you guys would 273 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: beyond aren't doing that verifing? Oh, we're not going to 274 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,159 Speaker 1: do your work for you. I want to ask you 275 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 1: a question. The FBI journalist Hustry is verified. How much 276 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 1: insane crap can Christian Mumpool say in one interview? I 277 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 1: just want to know this is this is on on 278 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:25,359 Speaker 1: CNN in some ways there their longest running and best 279 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 1: known host. I mean, now I'm on poor goes back 280 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:31,880 Speaker 1: to the Larry King days, and uh, she's saying I'm 281 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:34,399 Speaker 1: a journalist. She also says that's not what we're hearing 282 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 1: from the FBI. It was the most obvious news story ever. 283 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 1: They had the guy's laptop, they had all of his 284 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 1: personal information. It was clearly his laptop. But the problem 285 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 1: is that I'm on poor after all this, you think 286 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 1: she looks like a moron, so she'd be upset. No, 287 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:50,440 Speaker 1: she probably got a pat on the head, maybe even 288 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:55,159 Speaker 1: a bonus from Jeff Zucker for this disinformation. You're in 289 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 1: the freedom hunt. This is the buck Sexton Show podcast 290 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 1: from more buck Head to Bucksexton dot com and remember 291 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 1: to subscribe to the podcast.

What 297 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 1: flavor ice cream do you have? And he's in the 298 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 1: midst of a scandal, he's not and he's taking of 299 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 1: course he is, Leslie, Come on, of course he is. 300 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 1: It's the biggest, second biggest scandal. So the biggest scandal 301 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 1: was when they spied on my campaign. They spied on 302 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:37,680 Speaker 1: my campaign. There's no real evidence of that, of course 303 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 1: there is. It's all over the plays, Leslie, they spied 304 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:43,200 Speaker 1: on my campaign, and they get Can I say something 305 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 1: you know, this is sixty minutes, and we can't put 306 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 1: on things. We can't pay it on because it's bad 307 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: for Biden. We can't things we can't very leslie. They 308 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:56,360 Speaker 1: spide on my campaign, We can't totally verified it's been 309 00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 1: Just go down and get the papers. They spied on 310 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 1: my campaign. They got caught. No, and then they went 311 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 1: much further than that, and they got caught. And you 312 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,679 Speaker 1: will see that, Leslie, and you know that, but you 313 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 1: just don't want to know. As a matter of fact, 314 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:13,719 Speaker 1: I don't know that. No, as a matter of fact, 315 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:20,639 Speaker 1: I don't apparently read any of the various lengthy reports 316 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:24,439 Speaker 1: from the DOJ on this, or what the Congress and 317 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 1: the various oversight committees have proven. And no, this is 318 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 1: sixty minutes. We don't do facts that make Democrats sad 319 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 1: on the inside. That's what she's telling you. Again, looks 320 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:38,560 Speaker 1: like an idiot to anybody who knows anything about Russia collusion. 321 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,760 Speaker 1: The Attorney General of the United States said and used 322 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 1: the word spying on the campaign, and was and backed 323 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 1: it up. Afterwards. They said, oh, you didn't really mean spying. 324 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 1: They said, no, no, No, I meant spying on the campaign. 325 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 1: That's the sitting Attorney general. But sixty minutes knows better. 326 00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 1: This is sixty minutes. Unbelievable, unbelievable. It's all a fraud. Friends, 327 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 1: They're they're you know how Satan is the father of 328 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 1: lies the mainstream media because the grandfather applies. Okay, they're 329 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 1: they're coming up with this stuff all the time, all 330 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 1: the time, and they don't care you catch them. It 331 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:26,160 Speaker 1: does not matter because they're doing it for a reason. 332 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:29,639 Speaker 1: The reason is not to inform people. It is to 333 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:33,879 Speaker 1: please their democrat audience, to make them feel happy on 334 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 1: the inside, and to crush conservatives. That is why they exist. 335 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 1: They do not exist for the truth. They do not 336 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 1: exist to tell you things as they are, and they 337 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 1: don't care when you catch them anymore. That's that's the 338 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:50,400 Speaker 1: big difference. Now there's no pretense. They just think. Here's 339 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 1: a perfect example of the transition that I'm talking about. 340 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 1: Go back, look, just do it. You can do it. 341 00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 1: You know, a time constrained Google search, you know, put 342 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 1: in in the tools and you go to the dates, 343 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 1: go back and do his search five years ago on 344 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:06,680 Speaker 1: social media bias against conservatives, and all these websites would say, oh, 345 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 1: but you know, we don't do it at all, and 346 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 1: the social media platforms, oh, that's not that was a mistake. Oh, 347 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:13,880 Speaker 1: we didn't mean to do that. Oh no, no no. 348 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 1: And now it's gone to the point where they're just going, yeah, 349 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 1: what are you gonna do about it? That's right. We 350 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:24,919 Speaker 1: are attacking. We are coming after you. We are shutting 351 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 1: you down and cutting you off. And get ready for 352 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 1: the possibility here of Joe Biden getting a televised Shiatsu 353 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 1: massage for the next four years. I mean, it's gonna 354 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 1: be embarrassing. Joe is gonna be every interview. It's gonna 355 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:45,200 Speaker 1: be the equivalent of Joe Biden saying, oh, yeah, no joke, 356 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 1: my shoulders really, you know, man, it's tight up there. 357 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 1: And yeah, let's right, get into those knots. Yeah, a 358 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 1: little more oil. Yeah, that's right. That's what the media 359 00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:57,160 Speaker 1: is gonna be doing to Joe Biden for four years, 360 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: if he is present, and if he lasts four years 361 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:09,119 Speaker 1: in office. Because let's be honest, friends, we're already seeing 362 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 1: some very interesting indicators, aren't we. No, no, no, And 363 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: I don't know this. I'm thinking this one through as 364 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:18,200 Speaker 1: I talk to you, but sure, the media is now 365 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 1: coming clean on the Hunter Biden stuff. And I shouldn't 366 00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 1: say coming clean, they're just they have to now drop 367 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 1: the facade. But why now? Why are they dropping the 368 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 1: facade now? They probably could have extended this out a 369 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:36,399 Speaker 1: little bit longer, waited until after the inauguration. Why do 370 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 1: it now? And they don't seem upset about this at all? 371 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:46,920 Speaker 1: And remember that they are a bunch of conniving, backstabbing, 372 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 1: behind the scenes manipulators. That's what the mainstream media is 373 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,920 Speaker 1: full of. So why would they all of a sudden 374 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 1: be so calm about clearly very negative revelations about Joe 375 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,920 Speaker 1: Biden that aren't really revelations as you know. I mean, 376 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,920 Speaker 1: it's even tough to talk about this because the words 377 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 1: that we end up using. And this is not a 378 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:10,360 Speaker 1: news story. This is just the media saying, whoopsie, why 379 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 1: do you sorry? But not sorry? That's really the media's 380 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 1: new entrip. Sorry, not sorry. They don't care, that's all 381 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: this is. Why is this happening now? Why is this 382 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:28,119 Speaker 1: occurring in this moment? I have told you all along 383 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 1: it is my belief that Kamala Harris was very likely 384 00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:40,919 Speaker 1: to take over for Joe Biden early in a Biden administration. 385 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 1: And that this would work out for all those involved. 386 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:46,720 Speaker 1: As far as the Democrats are concerned, Joe Biden gets 387 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 1: to be a hero, the savior of our democracy from 388 00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:53,360 Speaker 1: the clutches of Trump and Trumpism and hand it over 389 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:58,600 Speaker 1: to the first black female president after being vice president 390 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 1: for eight years, to the first black president. Right, Joe 391 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:05,280 Speaker 1: Biden gets to be a hero for the ages. In fact, 392 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:08,160 Speaker 1: if you look at the legacy of Biden versus say, 393 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 1: the legacy of the Clintons, Biden, if he pulls this off, 394 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 1: will be a more revered name. And who would have 395 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:17,880 Speaker 1: thought that could have been the case. But here we are. 396 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 1: I'm talking about among Democrats, great hero to the party. 397 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 1: And I think that we all need to see that. 398 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 1: That's given Biden's age, Right, if Biden were like a 399 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 1: strapping guy of you know, if he was in his 400 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,679 Speaker 1: early sixties and you know, look like I mean, I 401 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:37,960 Speaker 1: think when Bush came into office, remember someone telling me 402 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:40,080 Speaker 1: who was in that White House that you know, he 403 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:44,840 Speaker 1: could run multiple, multiple miles under seven minutes. And I 404 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 1: mean he was like a you know, a young, vital guy. 405 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:49,160 Speaker 1: And then of course after eight years of being president, 406 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 1: he looked like he had aged about thirty years. But 407 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 1: you know, if Biden were in his even in his 408 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:56,440 Speaker 1: early early sixties, I would say, or just his sixties, 409 00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 1: I'd say, yeah, he's gonna make it. He's gonna go 410 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 1: all eight years. He's gonna be eighties soon. And those 411 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 1: of you who have people in your in your lives 412 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 1: who I mean, the difference for a lot of people, 413 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:09,439 Speaker 1: not for all people. And so I don't need to 414 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 1: get the emails from our wonderful team buck audience whore 415 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:14,880 Speaker 1: in their eighties who could still kick my butt. I appreciate, 416 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 1: I know that you're out there. But for a lot 417 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:22,160 Speaker 1: of people, the difference between seventy and eighty is really substantial, 418 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,919 Speaker 1: and just in terms of their energy, and they're that's okay, 419 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 1: It's true for all of us. This is not this 420 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 1: is no way is this anything other than an observation. 421 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 1: You know, when I'm seventy, it's gonna be different than 422 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:35,160 Speaker 1: when I'm eighty. I mean, gosh, I'm gonna be forty soon, 423 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,200 Speaker 1: and it feels very different from when I was thirty. 424 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,679 Speaker 1: I gotta tell you. So we all have this, we 425 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:47,880 Speaker 1: all have this understanding. Joe Biden is going to deteriorate 426 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 1: more in office with all the pressure and stress under 427 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 1: him in terms of his aging and everything else, and 428 00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:55,879 Speaker 1: it's so easy for him to step aside, but I 429 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:59,560 Speaker 1: think the media wants him to. This could be and 430 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:02,160 Speaker 1: this is really where I'm going to this analysis analysis. 431 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:05,080 Speaker 1: This could be the greatest Baden switch. This could be 432 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:11,119 Speaker 1: the biggest maneuver in politics in our lifetime. They essentially 433 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,400 Speaker 1: get this guy who doesn't seem that radical, at least 434 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 1: that's what they're saying, and they push this guy and 435 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 1: all this stuff, and then they just replace him with 436 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 1: somebody who's completely willing to do whatever the corporate left wants, 437 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 1: emphasis on corporate. Kamala Harris is a liberal, but she 438 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 1: likes you know, she likes the dollar dollar bills. I mean, 439 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 1: she's somebody who wants the Googles and the facebooks and 440 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 1: the you know, the Soros Foundation, and she wants all 441 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 1: that to be on her own planned parent at all, 442 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:45,120 Speaker 1: that's got to be on her side. And then they're 443 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 1: on the side of the radical left as we know anyway. 444 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 1: But I can't help but notice that there's a a 445 00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:57,679 Speaker 1: sense here of oh, Okay, turns out maybe Joe Biden 446 00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:01,120 Speaker 1: does have some problems. And the left is fighting this enough. 447 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:04,159 Speaker 1: They're not even trying to run cover on it right now, 448 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 1: they're just saying, yeah, sorry, I mean they don't care. 449 00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 1: As I've said to you, they don't care. But they 450 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,120 Speaker 1: could have held it a little bit longer. Look, maybe 451 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 1: I'm maybe I'm reading further into this than I should. 452 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 1: That's always possible. But I don't think Joe Biden makes 453 00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 1: it to the mid terms. I really don't. And you 454 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 1: have this time, meaning that he voluntarily steps aside for 455 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:26,359 Speaker 1: health reasons, which would be not there would never be 456 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:30,120 Speaker 1: a way to prove that that was planned versus that 457 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 1: that was the reality. There's a very decent chance Joe 458 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:34,679 Speaker 1: Biden could have a real health reason to step aside 459 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 1: in the next four years, right That wouldn't be a surprise. 460 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:42,920 Speaker 1: So the door is wide open for it, I think. 461 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 1: And I'm not talking so much about this Biden thing 462 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:48,479 Speaker 1: because I've given up, So you don't need to tell 463 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:50,120 Speaker 1: me that I haven't given up yet. I had Sean 464 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 1: Parnell on yesterday. We're taking this thing to the Supreme Court, 465 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 1: and we all all it takes is one big break 466 00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 1: in the damn That's what it takes. And it could 467 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 1: be this Pennsylvania case. It'd be amazing if my buddy 468 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 1: Sean was part of the legal effort that change history. 469 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 1: But you know, he knows it's a long shot. He's 470 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:14,240 Speaker 1: told you that, but it's still a shot. But with Biden, 471 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 1: I'm just sensing now this is at least the media's 472 00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 1: thinking and the Democrat Party's thinking, which is why this 473 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 1: Time magazine thing is just so interesting. Who do you 474 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:28,880 Speaker 1: think the Time Magazine Person of the Year is Person 475 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 1: of the Year Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Not the 476 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:37,360 Speaker 1: people that have put together a vaccine that might give 477 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 1: us back our lives in the next six months, because 478 00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 1: that's really what it's going to be. Not the people 479 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 1: that have done that. Not are frontline healthcare workers. You know, 480 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,040 Speaker 1: they've done this sort of group thing before. They'll say 481 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 1: that the person of the year and they'll name a 482 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:56,120 Speaker 1: group of people. No, No, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris person 483 00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 1: of the year Time Magazine. This is the only thing 484 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 1: that ever talks about with Time Magazine, just because it's 485 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 1: it's had this ability to put this stamp of person 486 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 1: on the year for going back. I don't even know 487 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 1: now how many decades, fifty sixty seventy years whatever, maybe 488 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 1: more than that. I have no idea, so we still 489 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 1: say this, but it just shows you where the mentality 490 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 1: is right now. Yeah, they they couldn't just put Joe 491 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:24,959 Speaker 1: Biden on that cover. Had to put Kamala. They had 492 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:28,440 Speaker 1: to put the vice president Joe Biden they think won 493 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 1: this election. That's what we're all being told as has happened. 494 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:33,960 Speaker 1: Of course, no fraud, no fraud at all. Of course 495 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 1: there was fraud, but Joe Biden won this election. And 496 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 1: here we are now seeing the Kamala Harris shares the 497 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 1: cover with him Time Magazine. These are little indicators. These 498 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,239 Speaker 1: are things that in the media world, you always pay 499 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 1: attention to what the photo placement is. In the media world, 500 00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 1: who's in the center, who's on the sides, who who 501 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:01,920 Speaker 1: has a good photo picked to them, who is kind 502 00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 1: of a crappy photo picked of them? Because there's decisions 503 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 1: going into all this all the time, which by people 504 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 1: in the media are usually so crazy and and finicky 505 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:13,200 Speaker 1: about stuff like this. But they put kamalaw on that 506 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 1: cover for a reason. Friends, that much I know you're 507 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:21,120 Speaker 1: in the freedom hunt.

We've got to be 524 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 1: focused in on this thing. I think we you know, 525 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 1: I worry about the psychology of the right at this 526 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:24,720 Speaker 1: point in time because Trump supporters are look, I get it, 527 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 1: people are upset, they're dejective. We've got people talking about 528 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 1: the road to secession here right this is this is upsetting. 529 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 1: It's an emotionally challenging period. I'll put it that way. 530 00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:37,800 Speaker 1: A lot of other words I'd like to use, but 531 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 1: there's a family show. It's emotionally challenging period. It is 532 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 1: messed up. You could say that's family friendly. But if 533 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 1: we don't get our heads right and get into this 534 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,880 Speaker 1: fight in Georgia and make sure that these senate runoffs 535 00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:58,080 Speaker 1: go our way, then we really got problems. No matter what. 536 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:01,600 Speaker 1: We can focus as much as we need to and 537 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:04,600 Speaker 1: push at support and people are sending donations and they're 538 00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 1: keeping the story alive, and they're spreading, spreading word about 539 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 1: the fraud, and I think we also don't have enough time, 540 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 1: which has always been my concern here. They keep saying, well, 541 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 1: where's the fraud? Show us the proof, and I say, well, 542 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 1: how long is you got to go and say they're 543 00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:23,960 Speaker 1: talking about tens of millions, over one hundred million votes. 544 00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 1: You're not looking at them everywhere, obviously only in certain 545 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:29,720 Speaker 1: states and certain precincts. But it's a big operation, and 546 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:33,200 Speaker 1: you got to go and do hand recounts and check 547 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:35,000 Speaker 1: things us. This takes time, and we don't have a 548 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 1: lot of time. But that said this Georgia election, the 549 00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:43,960 Speaker 1: Democrats are hoping that we don't show up those of 550 00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:46,000 Speaker 1: us who live in and are registered in the state 551 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 1: of Georgia. Of course, because we don't commit we don't 552 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:51,320 Speaker 1: commit fraud. That's what Democrats do. Mike Pence is telling everybody. 553 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 1: I know Trump and Pence are out there pushing for 554 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:58,960 Speaker 1: Leffler and for Perdue. And here's Pence making the very 555 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 1: straightforward case, we got to show up for this thing. 556 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 1: Play five. I know we all got downs about this 557 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:08,600 Speaker 1: last election. I know I do, but I actually here's 558 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:12,320 Speaker 1: some people saying here in the Peach State, just don't vote. 559 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 1: From my fellow Americas, if you don't vote, they win. 560 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 1: If you don't vote, there could be nothing to stop 561 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:22,040 Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer and Nancy Felosi from cutting our military, raising taxes, 562 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 1: and passing their agenda the radical left. So I want 563 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 1: to say to you from my heart, for all we've done, 564 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:31,240 Speaker 1: for all we have yet to do, for our president, 565 00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:37,200 Speaker 1: for our future, for Georgia, and for America, cast another 566 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 1: vote for all President Trump has accomplished. Cast a vote 567 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:45,600 Speaker 1: to send David Perdue and Kelly Leffler back to the 568 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 1: United States Senate's absolutely right. In fact, my only criticism 569 00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:54,120 Speaker 1: would be that if they took the Senate majority, it 570 00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:56,360 Speaker 1: would be a lot scarier than just raising taxes and 571 00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 1: cutting the military back a bit. It would get much 572 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 1: worse than that. They will go for long term strategic 573 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:08,439 Speaker 1: structural changes to the American political landscape so that then 574 00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:11,239 Speaker 1: they can win on any issue. Then it's just a 575 00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:14,280 Speaker 1: question of what their base wants, what the Democrats decide 576 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:17,040 Speaker 1: to do. They don't have to worry about, Oh, we're 577 00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 1: gonna get we're gonna get thumped in the mid terms, 578 00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:24,839 Speaker 1: because we'll make a difference. That's what eliminating the filibusters, 579 00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:30,280 Speaker 1: statehood for DC and Puerto Rico, and amnesty and packing 580 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:34,279 Speaker 1: the courts would accomplish. He's lay it out right there. 581 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,759 Speaker 1: We're not winning another election for thirty or forty years. 582 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:39,719 Speaker 1: If they get those things done, and they know it, 583 00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 1: you're in the freedom hunt. This is the Buck Sexton 584 00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:48,200 Speaker 1: Show podcast from more buck Head to Bucksexton dot com 585 00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:54,239 Speaker 1: and remember to subscribe to the podcast.

He's got a lot 589 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:08,680 Speaker 1: of thoughts up there, and he wrote a piece this 590 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:13,759 Speaker 1: week in fact on the Hunter Biden story killing. Let's 591 00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:17,239 Speaker 1: get to that, David. Great to have you, always a 592 00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 1: pleasure of thank you. Fuck so, David, I have a 593 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:23,879 Speaker 1: thesis and you can. I'm sure you have either either 594 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:26,759 Speaker 1: another view on this that's a little diversion, or maybe 595 00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 1: you want to add to it, or you know, you'll 596 00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:31,399 Speaker 1: do what you do. But here's here's what I want 597 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:32,880 Speaker 1: to put out there for you. I think we're at 598 00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 1: a point now that the media that and when we say, 599 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:37,239 Speaker 1: I know, we don't have great terms here, right, the 600 00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:40,879 Speaker 1: mainstream media, the lib media, whatever Democrat aligned media, which 601 00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 1: controls ninety percent of journalism as we know, ninety five percent. Really, 602 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:47,919 Speaker 1: I think we're at a point now where they get 603 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:52,239 Speaker 1: caught doing things that violate the core ethics of their profession, 604 00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 1: like the suppression of the New York Post piece turning 605 00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:59,120 Speaker 1: against them the New York Times writing some palace intrigue 606 00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:01,239 Speaker 1: piece about how in the newsroom at the Post. I 607 00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:02,920 Speaker 1: mean we had you on to talk about this. I 608 00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 1: remember you're saying that there were Yeah, there are people 609 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:07,080 Speaker 1: that have disagreements in a newsroom all the time. But 610 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:09,400 Speaker 1: the point is is the story true and shouldn't have 611 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 1: been run. I think the media and David is at 612 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 1: a point now where they just don't care if they're 613 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:19,040 Speaker 1: caught as long as it was for the right cause, 614 00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 1: that is Democrats. No, of course they don't care. That's 615 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:28,040 Speaker 1: their mission is to help elect democrats. You know. It's 616 00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:29,919 Speaker 1: not as if they're suffering. You see the New York 617 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 1: Times or even CNN. It's not like there is some 618 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:36,759 Speaker 1: kind of you know, everyone knows what they do, so 619 00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:39,640 Speaker 1: there's no blowback to anything like this. This is the 620 00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:43,399 Speaker 1: They're playing to their crowd, their left wing organizations, their 621 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:48,319 Speaker 1: partisan organizations, you know, and that's what they do. They 622 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:50,960 Speaker 1: don't care about stories like the hunter by the story 623 00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:55,200 Speaker 1: because it hurt their candidate. They knew very well that 624 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:58,000 Speaker 1: the Post story had been conducted, the reporters had conducted 625 00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:02,200 Speaker 1: themselves with the same ethical standards and the same journalistic 626 00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:07,120 Speaker 1: standards that you know, a vast majority of other stories 627 00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:10,520 Speaker 1: used and scoops used. They just wanted to suppress it 628 00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:13,040 Speaker 1: and they did, and none of them care. None of 629 00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 1: them are today are like, wow, maybe we should have 630 00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:17,960 Speaker 1: conducted ourselves differently. At least I haven't seen anyone too that. No, 631 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:20,000 Speaker 1: that's why I have not I've not seen a single 632 00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:24,920 Speaker 1: person who apologized for lying about the I mean to 633 00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:29,520 Speaker 1: call it Russian disinformation. Ben Rhodes, the former Obama White 634 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:32,279 Speaker 1: House a foreign policy propagandist who is really one of 635 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:34,839 Speaker 1: the more odious figures of the Obama administration, you know, 636 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 1: in its totality, He called it Russian disinformation at the time, 637 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,319 Speaker 1: many many other people were, I mean, that was the 638 00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 1: talking point. You could go all these different cable news shows, 639 00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:46,920 Speaker 1: MSNBCCNN and all the rest. They're all saying that it 640 00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 1: was Russian disinformation, which it clearly was not. And there's 641 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:55,520 Speaker 1: no Mayakalpa at all. In fact, the only Mayakulpa that 642 00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:58,600 Speaker 1: I've seen came from I think it was a guy 643 00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:04,360 Speaker 1: at Politico during the suppression effort who was sorry publicly 644 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 1: for sharing the New York Post story. Yeah, you're right 645 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 1: about that. Remember that it's funny because Political ran one 646 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:17,040 Speaker 1: of the most dishonest stories. Political is a complete joke, 647 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:20,719 Speaker 1: but they ran the most dishonest piece where they had 648 00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 1: Brennan and a bunch of other former figures within other 649 00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:29,439 Speaker 1: administrations say that this might be Russian disinformation, but even 650 00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:31,840 Speaker 1: they didn't come out and say for sure it was 651 00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:33,719 Speaker 1: or anything of that nature. But yet the whole thing 652 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:35,840 Speaker 1: was couched in a way to make it seem like, well, 653 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:39,160 Speaker 1: you know it could be Noah, well anything could be 654 00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:43,560 Speaker 1: Russian disinformation, right, I mean, so we can literally cover nothing. 655 00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:47,080 Speaker 1: The Post had its hands on the laptop. All they 656 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:49,919 Speaker 1: have to do is go and ask for confirmation from 657 00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:53,160 Speaker 1: Biden himself, which they have now done, because how long 658 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:55,000 Speaker 1: can you ignore a story that's under You know, if 659 00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:58,000 Speaker 1: there's a federal investigation into someone, you can pretend that 660 00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:01,280 Speaker 1: doesn't exist forever. But now, of course it's been blunted 661 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:04,359 Speaker 1: and all that. So yeah, I mean, I laid out 662 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:08,759 Speaker 1: a bunch of examples of how people were misleading on 663 00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:11,399 Speaker 1: the story, suppressing the story, how they were There were 664 00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:15,000 Speaker 1: more stories process stories about the Post newsroom than there 665 00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:19,000 Speaker 1: was about the front running candidate of the United States 666 00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:23,080 Speaker 1: possibly being involved in what is essentially either criminally corrupt 667 00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:26,960 Speaker 1: but at the very least shady business dealings with authoritarian states. 668 00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:29,680 Speaker 1: But you know, they don't care. So I think that 669 00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:32,920 Speaker 1: the main thing here. I'll keep complaining my whole life. 670 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:35,400 Speaker 1: The main thing is we're going to have to people 671 00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:38,799 Speaker 1: who care about the truth, even when it's about Democrats 672 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 1: need to come up with a better plan than relying 673 00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:44,720 Speaker 1: on these organizations and institutions which don't do their job anymore. 674 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:46,879 Speaker 1: Or they do their job, but their charge is very 675 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:50,120 Speaker 1: different from the one they pretend it is. I'm just wondering. 676 00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 1: On his show earlier this week, Tucker referred to The 677 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:56,280 Speaker 1: Daily Beast as he said something like, probably the worst 678 00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:59,279 Speaker 1: left wing website that does news on you know that 679 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:02,880 Speaker 1: people know that does news. Is there one offender that 680 00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:05,000 Speaker 1: you think is the worst at all of this? Because 681 00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:08,759 Speaker 1: Daily Beast is a good choice. I actually think in 682 00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:11,480 Speaker 1: a lot of ways, really, CNN dot com is actually 683 00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:13,359 Speaker 1: the single worst site on the internet. But is there 684 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:15,360 Speaker 1: one that bothers you more than the others? See? I 685 00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:17,400 Speaker 1: think the Daily Beast is a joke, though I do 686 00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:19,880 Speaker 1: there is one reporter I sort of like over there, 687 00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:22,200 Speaker 1: But in general, I mean, I think the editor is 688 00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:26,120 Speaker 1: a complete joke of a of a you know, a journalist. 689 00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:28,560 Speaker 1: I don't think they're journalists over there at all. But 690 00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:31,600 Speaker 1: the problem with that is that everyone knows that and 691 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:34,560 Speaker 1: deals with them in a certain way where CNN positions 692 00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:38,360 Speaker 1: itself as an unbiased source and actually prides itself with 693 00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:43,480 Speaker 1: its stupid banana apple commercials with one of the anchors 694 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:46,239 Speaker 1: was wearing like facts first sweater the other day, you know, 695 00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:49,640 Speaker 1: things like that. It's just annoying. But so to me, 696 00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:52,560 Speaker 1: CNN is has the most egregious because of people like 697 00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:55,839 Speaker 1: Jake Tapper and others who are complete activists pretending to 698 00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:59,520 Speaker 1: be journalists. So for me, I think CNN is the worst. Yeah, Mike, 699 00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:02,200 Speaker 1: I will totally totally agree, obviously, And I think that 700 00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:05,279 Speaker 1: it's something that people need to just we need to 701 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:08,600 Speaker 1: come at all this now, not as oh, sometimes these 702 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:11,640 Speaker 1: places lie to us in terms of their motivations. Now 703 00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:14,720 Speaker 1: it's no one lies about the facts all the time 704 00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:18,520 Speaker 1: because that's counterproductive, right even and people and I have 705 00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:22,480 Speaker 1: some familiarity with propaganda from studying it as an intelligence 706 00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:24,319 Speaker 1: officer to see how other countries do it, and also 707 00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:26,920 Speaker 1: in the Soviet Union, you know, you want to use 708 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:29,600 Speaker 1: some factual basis for things, and then you want to 709 00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:31,920 Speaker 1: either spin it in a certain way or leave certain 710 00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:34,919 Speaker 1: things out. So it's not about that. It's not like 711 00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:36,920 Speaker 1: we're all going to be using a different number for 712 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:40,239 Speaker 1: COVID cases, for example. It's about things like this, What 713 00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:42,960 Speaker 1: do they suppress, what do they actually tell you? How 714 00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:45,560 Speaker 1: do they know? What information do they want you to 715 00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:47,680 Speaker 1: be aware of? What are the headlines that they're using. 716 00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:50,960 Speaker 1: But David, I guess, and we're speaking of David Harsani 717 00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:55,799 Speaker 1: of National Review here nash Review dot com. What do 718 00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:58,799 Speaker 1: we do about this? I get asked this question, and 719 00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,520 Speaker 1: it's a great question when blast me, but I'm not 720 00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:03,840 Speaker 1: always sure that I have a great answer. It just 721 00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:05,960 Speaker 1: quickly what you're said about there being a kernel of 722 00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:08,839 Speaker 1: truth and all kinds of misleading propaganda. You know, as 723 00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:11,120 Speaker 1: far as you know the history of the world goes, 724 00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:14,040 Speaker 1: that's always the case. There's always some you know, every 725 00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:17,440 Speaker 1: conspiracy theory for instances, somehow has one leg in the 726 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:19,799 Speaker 1: truth or it wouldn't seem plausible for people. So that's 727 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:22,640 Speaker 1: of course the case. And the worst defenders who deal 728 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:24,920 Speaker 1: with that kind of thing are fact checkers, who are 729 00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:27,799 Speaker 1: perhaps the low it's the lowest form of journalism there is, 730 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:31,160 Speaker 1: in my opinion at this point, anyway, move forward. I 731 00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:34,719 Speaker 1: enjoy bashing these people, but what can we do about it? Well, 732 00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:38,480 Speaker 1: there's not much right now in the sense that I 733 00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:40,320 Speaker 1: think that you have to keep pointing it out and 734 00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:44,279 Speaker 1: in essence fact checking them in their genuine use of 735 00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:47,160 Speaker 1: the term as they go along. But the problem is, 736 00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:49,160 Speaker 1: and I've said this on your show before, is that 737 00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:50,880 Speaker 1: you know, it costs a lot of money, and it 738 00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:53,080 Speaker 1: takes a lot of work, and there has it takes 739 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:56,840 Speaker 1: a lot of time to actually really report on big stories. 740 00:42:57,040 --> 00:42:59,240 Speaker 1: Sometimes you have to put reporters on it for months, 741 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:03,279 Speaker 1: year more even And the problem with doing that for 742 00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:08,120 Speaker 1: smaller places National Review, Federalist, whoever, or even Washington Examiner 743 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:10,600 Speaker 1: and places they're trying to do more old school journalism 744 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:13,600 Speaker 1: is that it's super expensive and they just don't have 745 00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:15,759 Speaker 1: the institutions to do it. Whereas you know, the New 746 00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:17,920 Speaker 1: York Times has I don't know how many reporters in 747 00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:20,200 Speaker 1: the news or might imagine a thousand, I think I 748 00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:21,880 Speaker 1: think I think they've got a thousand people that work 749 00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:24,839 Speaker 1: in the New York Times. Right when I worked at 750 00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:26,799 Speaker 1: the Denver Post and the idea of newspapers there are 751 00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:29,520 Speaker 1: four hundred people. I think they're So you're talking about 752 00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:31,239 Speaker 1: there used to be a lot of reporters doing a 753 00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:34,799 Speaker 1: lot of work and having very specific beats and so on, 754 00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:38,440 Speaker 1: where it's very difficult to do. But I just don't 755 00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:41,600 Speaker 1: see any other way to combat this because I think 756 00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:45,879 Speaker 1: journalism has been corrupted by journalism, from journalism professors all 757 00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:48,520 Speaker 1: the way up the line to the top editors. They've 758 00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:51,040 Speaker 1: turned on free speech, they've turned on it's not even 759 00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:53,960 Speaker 1: it's not biased anymore. That is completely something you can 760 00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:56,359 Speaker 1: deal with. It's much worse than that. So I don't know, 761 00:43:56,480 --> 00:43:59,960 Speaker 1: I don't really have answers to what we meaning anyone 762 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,879 Speaker 1: who is upset by that can do. Um. I think 763 00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,360 Speaker 1: right wingers need to start their own journalistic outfits and 764 00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:08,239 Speaker 1: do the work. But I wish there were very much 765 00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 1: places that the ap or routers pretend to be, you know, 766 00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:14,400 Speaker 1: just the people who just give us the you know, 767 00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:17,200 Speaker 1: just the bare bones facts about what's going on out there. 768 00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:18,680 Speaker 1: I think that, by the way, I think there is 769 00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:20,640 Speaker 1: a you know, there could be a market for that. 770 00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:24,440 Speaker 1: I for example, you know, if there was a place, 771 00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:28,040 Speaker 1: if there was a place that did what CNN laughably 772 00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:31,000 Speaker 1: pretends to do, I would be I mean, I would 773 00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:32,680 Speaker 1: be reading it, I'd be checking in. I mean, I'd 774 00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:34,920 Speaker 1: kind of want to see what I could, what I 775 00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:36,840 Speaker 1: could gather from that for my own purposes. If I 776 00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:39,600 Speaker 1: knew that I could trust the information was accurate, right, 777 00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:41,799 Speaker 1: and then I wasn't getting all this nonsense. I mean, 778 00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:44,160 Speaker 1: if you if you're a I mean, I know I'm 779 00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:46,280 Speaker 1: picking on CNN and there are many others. I'm CNN, 780 00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:48,240 Speaker 1: I do think is the worst defender in this regard, 781 00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:50,640 Speaker 1: and it's gotten much worse even in the last four years. 782 00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:53,719 Speaker 1: I'll say that having had personal experience of working at 783 00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:57,920 Speaker 1: CNN and knowing it's gotten even even crazier. But but 784 00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:01,840 Speaker 1: it seems to me, Brian uh, David, Sorry, it seems 785 00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:04,120 Speaker 1: to me, d just kill me. It's face flashed on 786 00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:06,080 Speaker 1: a screen for a second, and I got you know, 787 00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:07,960 Speaker 1: this is the problem with having screens in your in 788 00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:10,879 Speaker 1: your radio room. M David. It seems to me that 789 00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:15,920 Speaker 1: the way that we can fight against this is also 790 00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:20,680 Speaker 1: severely limited by the fact that the social media companies 791 00:45:20,719 --> 00:45:22,880 Speaker 1: now and I feel like the old like the Fox 792 00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:26,440 Speaker 1: News watching generation, for example, people like me talk about 793 00:45:26,680 --> 00:45:29,520 Speaker 1: YouTube and you know and Twitter, and it's like, ah, 794 00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:33,440 Speaker 1: this is no, this is the new mainstream media, like 795 00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:36,280 Speaker 1: they're more powerful than CNN. I'm trying to get everyone 796 00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:39,160 Speaker 1: understand that even if people who are of a certain age, 797 00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:41,799 Speaker 1: a certain demo don't use these things. Well, I think 798 00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:46,000 Speaker 1: you're right in that. Um. You know, people often point 799 00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:49,320 Speaker 1: out a very very small percentage of Americans actually use Twitter, 800 00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:52,319 Speaker 1: but you know, and of that percentage of very few 801 00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:54,800 Speaker 1: use it all the time. But I do think that 802 00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:57,640 Speaker 1: that things that happen on Twitter tend to filter up 803 00:45:57,640 --> 00:45:59,600 Speaker 1: into the news and elsewhere, so I think it's more 804 00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:02,880 Speaker 1: important and then the credit that's given to it. But 805 00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:06,400 Speaker 1: I also think it's been an amazing way for conservatives 806 00:46:06,440 --> 00:46:10,200 Speaker 1: to combat things. Now I get that Twitter, like I 807 00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:13,600 Speaker 1: think that Twitter is both terrible and excellent at the 808 00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:15,920 Speaker 1: same time. It's both makes us terrible human beings. It 809 00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:19,000 Speaker 1: allows fake news to filter, it makes us you know, 810 00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:21,360 Speaker 1: there's all kind of terrible things going on. But honestly, 811 00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:25,680 Speaker 1: how many big stories have there been debunked on Twitter 812 00:46:25,840 --> 00:46:29,160 Speaker 1: by Twitter users in the last four, you know, eight years? 813 00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:31,640 Speaker 1: I think many? Right, first it was blogs that we're 814 00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:33,640 Speaker 1: doing it, and now you have people on Twitter doing it. 815 00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:35,840 Speaker 1: So it is an important tool. And that's why I 816 00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:39,200 Speaker 1: worry about stripping liability protections from these folks, because I 817 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:41,400 Speaker 1: think you're going to kill social media in a way, 818 00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:45,160 Speaker 1: and then that gives gatekeepers even more control because you're 819 00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:49,360 Speaker 1: gonna have less ways for democratized, you know, way for 820 00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:51,839 Speaker 1: people to talk to each other. So again, I don't 821 00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:54,560 Speaker 1: have any good answers for this, but I think that 822 00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:58,359 Speaker 1: that talking to yourself on parlor, which is a fine 823 00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:01,799 Speaker 1: site whatever, is not helping you in the sense that 824 00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:04,440 Speaker 1: being out there being able to debunk what CNN is 825 00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:06,560 Speaker 1: saying in real time on Twitter, if you have a 826 00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:10,160 Speaker 1: big following and you do, is much more effective. So 827 00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:13,319 Speaker 1: giving up that fight and going to another platform, I 828 00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:15,080 Speaker 1: don't know that that's really the answer to I would 829 00:47:15,120 --> 00:47:19,200 Speaker 1: say this too, and I just that we have learned 830 00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:22,680 Speaker 1: so much about what is true about these journalists and 831 00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:25,680 Speaker 1: how they think because of Twitter. Finally, it took I 832 00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:27,520 Speaker 1: took a while people to realize this, but the guy 833 00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:32,120 Speaker 1: who's tweeting orange Man bad, he's basically Hitler at ten am, 834 00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:35,480 Speaker 1: is not doing a fair recitation of the White House 835 00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:38,200 Speaker 1: Press conference at four pm. And I think that that 836 00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:42,719 Speaker 1: has been an enormous benefit of Twitter. Yeah, and if 837 00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:45,200 Speaker 1: I may add, it's not just journalists though. You now 838 00:47:45,239 --> 00:47:47,520 Speaker 1: you see what they're really about the things they tweet, 839 00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:51,200 Speaker 1: the exclamation points on stories, you know, all that kind 840 00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:53,640 Speaker 1: of stuff. They're just completely unprofessional. And this goes for 841 00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:56,040 Speaker 1: the vast majority of them. But you also see it 842 00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:57,960 Speaker 1: with college professors. You know, my kids are going to 843 00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:00,799 Speaker 1: go to college soon, and I'm like, I used to 844 00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:02,920 Speaker 1: have a list. I'm like, I cannot send them to 845 00:48:02,960 --> 00:48:08,120 Speaker 1: this college. Does this idiot or this unintellectual crackpot teaches there? 846 00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:09,959 Speaker 1: But now there are too many schools that I've seen 847 00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:12,840 Speaker 1: professors from everywhere that I don't even know where. It's everywhere. 848 00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:15,040 Speaker 1: I don't give a dollar to my college, and I 849 00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:18,160 Speaker 1: have zero regrets about that. I can tell you that. 850 00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:21,560 Speaker 1: David Harsani, everybody check him out National Review dot com. 851 00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:23,440 Speaker 1: And if you're not following him on Twitter and you're 852 00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:26,239 Speaker 1: on Twitter, you should be David Harsan. Ye kind of 853 00:48:26,239 --> 00:48:28,919 Speaker 1: spell it out phonetically. You'll get there. David, thanks so much. 854 00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:29,880 Speaker 1: Thank you,
