Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom much there is no Biden
Speaker 1: return to normalcy. How recounts strengthen democracy. Chicago tries to
Speaker 1: cancel Thanksgiving, and Mansion versus a o C. This is
Speaker 1: the buck Sexton Show where the mission where mission is
Speaker 1: to decode what really matters with assionable intelligence. Make no
Speaker 1: mistake American, Great, great American. Again the buck Sexton Show begins.
Speaker 1: He's a great guy. No, welcome friends to the buck
Speaker 1: Sexton Show. My, oh my, Friday the thirteenth. Of course,
Speaker 1: here we are. It feels like a Friday the thirteenth,
Speaker 1: doesn't it. Let's dive into it. Biden was supposed to
Speaker 1: be all along, a return to normalcy. That's what we
Speaker 1: were told. Now it's not yet clear that he will
Speaker 1: be the president of the United States. It could happen,
Speaker 1: you could even say it's likely, but we're already coming
Speaker 1: to a recognition. I think as a country, or at
Speaker 1: least anybody who's being honest and who's paying attention to
Speaker 1: all of this, that the Libs are going to still
Speaker 1: be crazy when all's said and done, after these legal challenges,
Speaker 1: after these recounts, once all that's passed away, passed by
Speaker 1: you will see that they're still calling Republicans Nazis, they're
Speaker 1: still saying that Republicans are racists and white supremacists. We're
Speaker 1: still going to have a COVID pandemic, there are going
Speaker 1: to be all of these challenges, and the discourse is
Speaker 1: not going to be magically elevated. It's not going to happen.
Speaker 1: There's no reason to believe this will happen other than
Speaker 1: it was a narrative that was pushed relentlessly, relentlessly by
Speaker 1: the Democrats and their allies in the media, because especially
Speaker 1: in a year where everything feels so strange and unsettling
Speaker 1: and we're all so anxious because of this pandemic and
Speaker 1: the lockdowns and the economic costs that it has incurred.
Speaker 1: With all of that going on, anyone who says we're
Speaker 1: going to go back to normal, you'll listen to them
Speaker 1: and say, oh, well, wouldn't that be great. But I'm
Speaker 1: here to tell you that the Democratic Party's idea of
Speaker 1: normal is not what a normal person's idea of normal is.
Speaker 1: The Democrat Party has become radical, it has become left wing.
Speaker 1: They seek to purge ideas from the public square that
Speaker 1: they do not like, not to defeat them in the
Speaker 1: marketplace of ideas, to actually expel them from that marketplace,
Speaker 1: to prohibit them from even being able to show up
Speaker 1: and try to sell their goods, so to speak. Joe
Speaker 1: Biden is looking at a number of far left Democrats
Speaker 1: for very senior positions in his government in order to
Speaker 1: keep the base happy. And again, this is all under
Speaker 1: the assumption that the legal challenges that Trump rings are
Speaker 1: not yet successful or are not successful. Rather, in the end,
Speaker 1: with all of this going on, though, we can already
Speaker 1: see how this would shape up. And let's even say
Speaker 1: that Trump continues for four more years in office, whatever
Speaker 1: the case may be, there is no normal that Democrats
Speaker 1: pretend we're going to go back to. It doesn't exist.
Speaker 1: Do you remember what it was like for eight years
Speaker 1: of the Obama administration. Anyone who disagreed with Obama was
Speaker 1: basically called the racist in the media. I mean, that
Speaker 1: was the most common tactic of all, Oh, you don't
Speaker 1: like you don't like Obamacare, you don't like the Affordable
Speaker 1: Care Act, you must be racist, you think the irs
Speaker 1: was targeting conservative groups in twenty eleven and twenty twelve,
Speaker 1: in an election year, by the way, under the Obama administration.
Speaker 1: That sounds a little racist. Was there any bipartisan spirit
Speaker 1: or effort at that point in time, No, not at all.
Speaker 1: It didn't exist. There was no reaching across the aisle
Speaker 1: at the other side. They weren't trying to heal the
Speaker 1: divide in this country. But you'll notice a trend here.
Speaker 1: Obama ran in two thousand and eight as the guy
Speaker 1: that's going to bring the country together. He was transcending
Speaker 1: politics despite being a politician. And then in twenty twelve,
Speaker 1: it was like elections have consequences, deal with it. I win,
Speaker 1: you lose. And it was really the rub Republicans faces
Speaker 1: in it election when Mitt Romney got crushed. But we
Speaker 1: also remember the House. We remember the House changed hands
Speaker 1: during the Obama administration, and then eventually the Senate changed hands.
Speaker 1: The American people sort of saying, hmm, this left wing
Speaker 1: new age of politics that Obama brought about wasn't really
Speaker 1: all that it was supposed to be. Didn't really work
Speaker 1: out the way we were promised. Guess what. Right now,
Speaker 1: everybody who, as I've said, is being honest and is
Speaker 1: surveying the political scene is coming to the following conclusion.
Speaker 1: Even with a Biden victory, We're still going to be
Speaker 1: a country that is deeply divided. There will be government gridlock,
Speaker 1: There'll be fierce fights over you know, spending priorities, and
Speaker 1: over the debt ceiling and over the national debt, and
Speaker 1: you know what we should do with our foreign policy
Speaker 1: and how quickly we should get out if we ever
Speaker 1: get out of some of these Middle Eastern and South
Speaker 1: Asian quagmires were in red, They're gonna be all these
Speaker 1: fights and debates. What exactly was the return to normalcy? Oh,
Speaker 1: we won't have Trump's tweets? Well, that's not even true.
Speaker 1: There are reports today I saw some in the Daily
Speaker 1: Mail that the President is pretty openly speaking about how
Speaker 1: he's going to run again in four years. So you'll
Speaker 1: have a Biden, a Biden administration that will have Trump
Speaker 1: effectively running a presidency in exile, right, a presidency in
Speaker 1: opposition with all of the media cloud at all of
Speaker 1: the attention that he brings and his supporters bring, and
Speaker 1: what Joe Biden is going to use his tremendous political
Speaker 1: skills to navigate us through this. The most fascinating thing
Speaker 1: that you will see, guaranteed if and when Joe Biden
Speaker 1: ascends into the presidency in January, will be the six
Speaker 1: month period after that or the media tries so hard
Speaker 1: to explain why Biden has been such a great transition
Speaker 1: for America, especially on the issue of COVID. We're still
Speaker 1: going to have cases. Things are still going to be
Speaker 1: exactly what they are right now. But for the left,
Speaker 1: politics is a religion. It is their religion replacement, and
Speaker 1: so even when they have a false prophet, even when
Speaker 1: they have to pretend some clown is their temporary messiah
Speaker 1: to save the country, they're willing to do it because
Speaker 1: what else do they have? What else do they fall
Speaker 1: back on? This is why they're shrill lunatics instead of
Speaker 1: happy warriors as we are on the right, who are
Speaker 1: just going through this process and we'll accept whatever it
Speaker 1: ends up being once we've gotten the facts and once
Speaker 1: we are satisfied that the process is completed. That's all.
Speaker 1: That's all. But I find it fascinating the idea of
Speaker 1: a return to what was that normalcy we seek so much,
Speaker 1: the normalcy of oh, the Obama administration, right where we
Speaker 1: had a disastrous foreign policy and anemic economic recovery out
Speaker 1: of a recession. A lot of just reckless demagoguery around
Speaker 1: police and around racism in America, and the the constant
Speaker 1: construction of strong me end right. Obama's favorite tactic was always,
Speaker 1: you know, you can either agree with me or or
Speaker 1: you know, there are two sides of this argument. My
Speaker 1: side and then those evil morons you don't know anything,
Speaker 1: known as Republicans is why won't they meet me in
Speaker 1: the middle. I'm always right, and they're a bunch of
Speaker 1: They're a bunch of racist idiots. That was the tone
Speaker 1: from the Obama administration. The media propped them up the
Speaker 1: whole time. The idea that we're moving away from fascism,
Speaker 1: that that will be a return to normalcy under abide administration.
Speaker 1: Think about that for a moment. What is it like
Speaker 1: in fascist countries? Is the media ninety percent opposed to
Speaker 1: the ruling regime or is the media ninety percent plus
Speaker 1: favorable to slobbering over giving foot massages to the regime?
Speaker 1: Which one is it? We all know the answer to that.
Speaker 1: So where is the greater danger of authoritarianism? Or is
Speaker 1: the greater danger of your freedom being extinguished? It's, of course,
Speaker 1: in a circumstance where the media is in love with
Speaker 1: the people in charge because they reflect their own views
Speaker 1: and because they like their ability to wield power along
Speaker 1: their same ideological lines. That should be troubling to people
Speaker 1: that we don't have a true opposition press, or even
Speaker 1: a press that is focused on the job of providing
Speaker 1: facts and data without fear or favor. That's all laughable. Now.
Speaker 1: No one really can believe that, No intelligent person believes
Speaker 1: that's what the mainstream media, the corporate media does. So
Speaker 1: I'm just saying there's there's no return to normalcy that
Speaker 1: was always that was always a fiction, that was always
Speaker 1: a fraud. And then there's the other argument I wanted
Speaker 1: to make you today, which is that all the things
Speaker 1: that we're seeing right now while they're comparing it to
Speaker 1: Nazi Germany and they're saying these insane things about the
Speaker 1: Trump legal challenges, the recounts. Look, the president, he's got
Speaker 1: a little bit of bluster at him, as we know,
Speaker 1: and he's made some pretty sweeping claims, but he hasn't
Speaker 1: taken any action on those claims other than send lawyers
Speaker 1: into court. And now there's those claims are being tested
Speaker 1: and we're seeing what comes out of all of this.
Speaker 1: If Democrats care so much about our sacred democracy. If
Speaker 1: they believe so much in what's going on here, they
Speaker 1: should welcome this. This is, in a sense, the verification
Speaker 1: process for who really won this election. After these legal
Speaker 1: challenges make their way through. If Joe Biden ends up
Speaker 1: being the winner by vote count, well, then he'll really
Speaker 1: be the winner. Right now, people might still have their
Speaker 1: concerns about for all that was not found, or they
Speaker 1: might have other beliefs. That's fine, But you and I
Speaker 1: both know that if Trump turns around, if his team
Speaker 1: turns around and says, all right, we've done everything we can,
Speaker 1: the States have certified it, we're going to move on.
Speaker 1: And moving on doesn't mean forgetting about everything we've seen
Speaker 1: over the last four years. It means we continue forward,
Speaker 1: including the president continuing forward then as a private citizen,
Speaker 1: but perhaps one who will run again in four years,
Speaker 1: and if not, has a political movement to continue with.
Speaker 1: So there's no reason to be frightened in this moment
Speaker 1: for our democracy. That's actually the opposite of what we
Speaker 1: should be feeling. This is great. Our court system is working,
Speaker 1: our process is working. We're going to find out answers here.
Speaker 1: Then we'll look to what the actual outcome may be,
Speaker 1: and then we'll go forward as a country. But we're
Speaker 1: not going into some newfound unity and normalcy and we're
Speaker 1: all gonna be friends, and we're gonna shake can sing
Speaker 1: songs and pat each other on the back. Yeah, we're
Speaker 1: all Americans, and ultimately we all treat each other with
Speaker 1: a basic decency and we're in this together in one
Speaker 1: way or another. But the fights are going to continue.
Speaker 1: The gridlock in Congress is going to continue. Republicans and
Speaker 1: Democrats are far apart on a whole range of critical issues.
Speaker 1: That's not going to change. So let's live in reality here,
Speaker 1: my friends. And the reality is that normalcy with a
Speaker 1: Biden administration, or any administration for that matter, is a
Speaker 1: media fiction. There's no such thing. You're in the Freedom
Speaker 1: This is the Buck Sex and Show podcast. What are
Speaker 1: these false claims of widespread election fraud doing to our
Speaker 1: country right now? They appear to be motivated in part
Speaker 1: because the president doesn't like to lose and never admits loss.
Speaker 1: I'm more troubled by the fact that other Republican officials
Speaker 1: who clearly know better, are going along with us, are
Speaker 1: humoring him in this fashion. It is one more step
Speaker 1: in de legitimizing not just the incoming Biden administration, but
Speaker 1: democracy generally. And that's a dangerous path. That's the exact
Speaker 1: opposite of what's happening. It doesn't delegitimize democracy to bring
Speaker 1: legal challenges in court. Once again, the Democrats, the Libs, Obama,
Speaker 1: they refuse to separate Trump's political rhetoric from Trump's actions.
Speaker 1: What are the actions being taken. Lawyers are going before
Speaker 1: judges under oath, providing evidence, making their case, and responding
Speaker 1: to what the decisions are in each individual circumstance in
Speaker 1: all these different states. That strengthens democracy. What's what's the problem.
Speaker 1: Should we not have court systems? Should there not be
Speaker 1: a mechanism for checking on election results to make sure
Speaker 1: they are on the up and up. They've already moved
Speaker 1: to the point in their minds clearly and in the
Speaker 1: way they're talking about this where they are treating this
Speaker 1: as though Trump has rejected certified state results and legal
Speaker 1: challenges in courts and is pretending like none of that matters.
Speaker 1: That's not what's happening. They're the ones that are providing
Speaker 1: a picture of all of this. Obama unsurprisingly, and you've
Speaker 1: you've got to read by the way the New York Times.
Speaker 1: I read a snippet of it. The New York Times
Speaker 1: Review of Books. There's another Obama memoir coming out, because
Speaker 1: that's what the world needs. It's over seven hundred pages.
Speaker 1: If you really want to fall asleep fast, I'm sure
Speaker 1: open open yet another Obama memoir. This guy writes he
Speaker 1: wrote two autobiographies before he was fifty. He really likes
Speaker 1: himself a lot. But it's it's amazing. The New York
Speaker 1: Times Review of Books. I've never read something so sacharin,
Speaker 1: so so worshipful about a book. In mine, it was
Speaker 1: like Obama's the most decent and wonderful man, and his
Speaker 1: writing is so brilliant that it's like it's like the
Speaker 1: words are making love to my eyes. I mean it's
Speaker 1: I'm not really exaggerating. You've got it. It's worth reading.
Speaker 1: The New York Times Review of Books about about Obama.
Speaker 1: The devotion that they have to this guy, it's it's unbelievable.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's it would be embarrassing for any adult.
Speaker 1: I would never speak or write that way about anyone
Speaker 1: who was not actually walking on water in front of me,
Speaker 1: you know so. But they think Obama can walk on water,
Speaker 1: but he doesn't need to because here already has proven
Speaker 1: that he's God. Basically, so they don't they don't care.
Speaker 1: But what Obama is saying here is obviously ridiculous. There's
Speaker 1: nothing that the president's doing that's undermining democracy. There are irregularities,
Speaker 1: We've already found them. There are some weak spots and
Speaker 1: some shortcomings in this. So what's what's the issue? Oh
Speaker 1: and by the way, the Democrats went along with the
Speaker 1: Russia collusion hoax for four years, which never had any evidence,
Speaker 1: and they used fake, fake information through a criminal legal
Speaker 1: process to go after Trump campaign officials to try to
Speaker 1: ensnare the president himself, to bring charges against General Flynn.
Speaker 1: That's right. They weaponized the federal bureaucracy against an incoming administration.
Speaker 1: Obama and his team did that. Now they want to
Speaker 1: talk about undermining democracy. Obama was a part of a coup, friends,
Speaker 1: part of a coup, That's what that was, trying to
Speaker 1: at least hobble, if not destroy, an incoming Republican administration.
Speaker 1: And Obama knew about it. They discussed it in front
Speaker 1: of him, no problem, and he knew more about it
Speaker 1: than we even have been able to prove at this point. Obviously,
Speaker 1: guy's the president. Do you think James Comey was running
Speaker 1: all this stuff, all these operations against Trump's people and
Speaker 1: they weren't having conversations in the Oval office, you know,
Speaker 1: off the record and held at the highest level that
Speaker 1: that's what was going on. Come on, folks, we all
Speaker 1: know I'm not idiots. Everything they've shown us so far,
Speaker 1: all the evidence has proven just how high up that
Speaker 1: conspiracy went. Now that they were acture us about undermining democracy,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna need to take out the bleep button to
Speaker 1: tell them what I think of them for this. This
Speaker 1: is absurd, But oh yes, we need. That's what America
Speaker 1: needs right now, another another Obama lecture. Maybe he can
Speaker 1: tell us about foreign policy, as in, how to have
Speaker 1: America go around the world bowing and begging for forgiveness
Speaker 1: all the time and get hit with a lot of
Speaker 1: terrorist attacks and preside over lots of terrorists inspired disasters.
Speaker 1: That would be great, right, that's what we really need.
Speaker 1: Let's have Obama give us a lecture on all that
Speaker 1: and really really smart stuff going on there undermining undermining
Speaker 1: democracy by bringing challenges in court. They just stick with
Speaker 1: the talking points doesn't matter. It doesn't matter that they
Speaker 1: already had a court victory yesterday. There's an automatic well,
Speaker 1: there's a hand recount of should say going on in
Speaker 1: Georgia right now, and yesterday there was a victory where
Speaker 1: at court in Pennsylvania said that no, they actually can't
Speaker 1: have the Democrat Secretary of State of Pennsylvania just decide
Speaker 1: on a whim to extend out a ballot deadline even
Speaker 1: further than it had been extended. She just said, yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, we're gonna make it even later to get
Speaker 1: the final tally for these ballots in. So we're gonna
Speaker 1: go no, if something doesn't come in by a certain date,
Speaker 1: it doesn't count. That's what the law says. The state
Speaker 1: legislature gets the determined election law in Pennsylvania, not one
Speaker 1: Democrat official, and the court ruled in favor of the
Speaker 1: Trump campaign. So they've already won a court battle this
Speaker 1: week over ballot counting in the most critical state of
Speaker 1: all right now. But it's undermining democracy, the Democrats say,
Speaker 1: thanks for listening to the Bus and Show podcasts. Remember
Speaker 1: to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever
Speaker 1: you get your podcasts. Could we just get the Democrats
Speaker 1: to lay off the reckless, stupid Trump is a Nazi
Speaker 1: analogies for can we get a moratorium on this for
Speaker 1: a few weeks. Do you think maybe anything we could
Speaker 1: do to get them to stop suggesting that Donald Trump
Speaker 1: is just about to become He's in the anti chamber
Speaker 1: of Hitlerrism. He's just a step away from becoming the
Speaker 1: next that off Hitler. Are they just going to take
Speaker 1: this up to the very end? I think the answer
Speaker 1: is yes. Among the most pompous and I would say worthless.
Speaker 1: As to her body of work TV journalists, you could
Speaker 1: think of really a throwback to when these people were
Speaker 1: elevated well beyond what was deserved because there were only
Speaker 1: the Internet wasn't that big a thing, and if you're
Speaker 1: on cable news, that's how people are getting their information.
Speaker 1: Is Christian almum Pool, who is probably got the single
Speaker 1: most arrogant but also not really clear where it comes
Speaker 1: from accent I've ever heard in my life. It's kind
Speaker 1: of British, but it's also fancier than British. And that's
Speaker 1: why she's on television because she sounds so fancy. Well,
Speaker 1: here she is comparing the current president of the United
Speaker 1: States and his administration through the Nazis and their book
Speaker 1: burning and their purges. A kid you not Plate twelve.
Speaker 1: Welcome to the program everyone. I'm Christiana manpur in London
Speaker 1: this week. Eighty two years ago, christel Nacht happened. It
Speaker 1: was the Nazis warning shot across the bow of our
Speaker 1: human civilization that led to genocide against a whole identity,
Speaker 1: and in that tower of burning books, it led to
Speaker 1: an attack on fact, knowledge, history, and truth. After four
Speaker 1: years of a modern day assault on those same values
Speaker 1: by Donald Trump, the Biden Harris team pledges a return
Speaker 1: to norms, including the truth, a return to norms. There
Speaker 1: you go, folks, norms like Republicans getting compared to Nazis.
Speaker 1: And isn't an also fascinating? Can we drill down to
Speaker 1: this for one second? Who are the ones that want
Speaker 1: to ban books and thoughts and publications that they don't like.
Speaker 1: It's the left, it's the woke, it's the Libs. There's
Speaker 1: no doubt about this, there's no argument about this. So
Speaker 1: isn't it fascinating that they keep accusing Trump of fascism
Speaker 1: and authoritarianism? And yet the authoritarian tendencies when we're talking
Speaker 1: about actions taken all come from the left. They're the
Speaker 1: ones that want to control, the ones that want to
Speaker 1: get to dictate every aspect of your life. And we
Speaker 1: see this even with the COVID pandemic and their response
Speaker 1: to that. Any opportunity to wield power over other human beings,
Speaker 1: the left leaps at that. They get excited by this idea.
Speaker 1: They want more of that. And yet Trump is the Nazi.
Speaker 1: Understand this. For them, a return to norms just means
Speaker 1: a return to being able to call Republicans Nazis without
Speaker 1: anybody really fighting back with Republicans going with the old Bush, Romney, McCain.
Speaker 1: You know, that's not so nice. You know, that's not
Speaker 1: the kind of rhetoric we need in the country. Right now,
Speaker 1: Trump calls them out for it. They don't like that.
Speaker 1: They want to be able to get away with the smears,
Speaker 1: with the nastiness, with the unfair, with the Slanders. They
Speaker 1: prefer that situation, and that's what they had had for
Speaker 1: a long time. They got used to that, just like
Speaker 1: they got used to having an advantage on the Supreme
Speaker 1: Court for decades, knowing that ultimately on major social issues,
Speaker 1: the left would just get what it wants. They'd gotten
Speaker 1: used to a form of politics in this country where
Speaker 1: Republicans just take it, just get slapped or punched in
Speaker 1: the face and say, well, I don't want to escalate things,
Speaker 1: so I think we should keep we should just ask
Speaker 1: to meet in the middle. No, I think that's a
Speaker 1: bad idea, and I don't think we're going back there.
Speaker 1: But this is standard. I mean, this is an opening.
Speaker 1: I think that was seeing an international because a fancy
Speaker 1: accent plays so much better all over the world. I'm
Speaker 1: a news anchor. I've interviewed famous people. Therefore you should
Speaker 1: listen to me who cares really not not a particularly
Speaker 1: bright person, but sounds like one. And that's all that
Speaker 1: It really took for a long time to be on
Speaker 1: cable news. If you sounded like someone that a stupid
Speaker 1: person thinks is smart, then you then you're you're good.
Speaker 1: Then you're good. If you if you're out of central
Speaker 1: casting for the quirky British professor who knows everything you
Speaker 1: know a little bit prickly, but I have read so
Speaker 1: many books that I'm so brilliant, you know, That's that's all.
Speaker 1: If you do that, you're great. Look at that guy
Speaker 1: what appears organ Put them on Oh the guy's got
Speaker 1: a fancy sound in British accent. Put them on TV.
Speaker 1: He'll know stuff that didn't go so well. So, Um,
Speaker 1: norms norms that we've established in the past that they
Speaker 1: want to go back to include calling Republicans Nazis for
Speaker 1: no reason and saying that we don't care about people dying.
Speaker 1: This is one of the other ways that the left argument.
Speaker 1: I mentioned the the straw men that Obama would create
Speaker 1: in argument so that he could completely annihilate a fake
Speaker 1: opposition argument. There is no one who's sang the things
Speaker 1: that he's saying. You know, you know some peoples are
Speaker 1: we're sure do this thing, and we should burn down
Speaker 1: the whole country, and we should you know, I know,
Speaker 1: we should just throw this other thing. All right, sir,
Speaker 1: Let's do the really cool thing that everyone's gonna love.
Speaker 1: It was gonna make it better for you. And that
Speaker 1: was the way it was right. That was the you know,
Speaker 1: you can either be with the like the evil, bad people,
Speaker 1: or you can be with the awesome, cool, smart people
Speaker 1: that gonna make everything awesome. Um. That was the That
Speaker 1: was the classic Obama tactic on every debate. It wasn't.
Speaker 1: It wasn't what's the good It wasn't what's the good
Speaker 1: faith argument from the other side. I'm not saying he
Speaker 1: should have agreed with the argument. He wouldn't even make.
Speaker 1: He wouldn't even present that argument. It's like some people
Speaker 1: wanna just you know, take babies and eat them, and
Speaker 1: then they want to just you know, destroy every aspect
Speaker 1: of society as we know it and ben you from
Speaker 1: being able to watch TV. And then other people over
Speaker 1: here they're gonna try to give you everything for free.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be awesome, you know what I mean? That
Speaker 1: was that was the classic Obama breakdown, And yet now
Speaker 1: it's it's coming back in a way. It's you're gonna
Speaker 1: see more of this because his Republicans make the argument
Speaker 1: against Democrat policies, whether it's Nancy Pelosi in the House
Speaker 1: or against the Biden administration. Um. I know, I'm not
Speaker 1: trying to get too far ahead of where we are
Speaker 1: with these court challenges, folks, But you know, we got
Speaker 1: we got to look into the future here a little bit, right.
Speaker 1: We can't just we have to see at least what
Speaker 1: the pathways are. So that's why I keep trying to
Speaker 1: pull myself back a little bit. But yeah, here's Joy.
Speaker 1: Joy Behar gives you another sense of what is a
Speaker 1: common approach for the people that are claiming we're gonna
Speaker 1: have a return to normalcy and there and they demand unity.
Speaker 1: Are also the people who say things like this play nine.
Speaker 1: I just want to add this one thing. It occurs
Speaker 1: to me that Trump is so evil at this point.
Speaker 1: I really think he's evil. I think he absolutely relishes
Speaker 1: the idea that things are getting worse and it's going
Speaker 1: to be in Biden's lap. I really think he likes that.
Speaker 1: That's how sick he is. He's such a monster that
Speaker 1: he wants more people to die because, you know, because
Speaker 1: Joe Biden's like a super genius who's read like many books.
Speaker 1: And Trump comes in and he's just like, I want
Speaker 1: everyone to die. I want everyone to just like not
Speaker 1: live anymore because I'm pouting because I didn't win. Now,
Speaker 1: that's what Joy, that's Joy Bahar's point of view on this.
Speaker 1: But I'll just explain to everybody right now that she's
Speaker 1: not alone on the left and thinking this way. They
Speaker 1: really believe. I remember I was on Bill maher show
Speaker 1: right before the pandemic really hit. We had not yet
Speaker 1: had a single death in the United States and the pandemic,
Speaker 1: and already I was being booed by that audience and
Speaker 1: yelled at and everything, because I was saying, guys, the
Speaker 1: President's gonna try to do what he can. He doesn't
Speaker 1: want people to die. They reject that, and my point
Speaker 1: to them wasn't even he doesn't want people to die
Speaker 1: because he's a good guy and he's a moral person,
Speaker 1: which I actually think. I think he is a good guy,
Speaker 1: and I think he does want to do what's best
Speaker 1: for people. I really do truly believe that. But it's
Speaker 1: bad for him politically, right. I mean, you don't want,
Speaker 1: no matter who you are, you know, no matter what
Speaker 1: kind of government we're talking about, when people start dying
Speaker 1: in a pandemic, it's bad for you. It's bad for
Speaker 1: your brand, you could say, bad for your grip on power.
Speaker 1: Even an authoritarian dictatorship you got. You gotta do something
Speaker 1: to keep your people alive in a pandemic, or else
Speaker 1: they're going to storm the storm the walls of the castle.
Speaker 1: Wouldn't They wouldn't accept that either. Trump is so monstrous,
Speaker 1: so indifferent to human suffering that you know, he doesn't
Speaker 1: even care if people die from the pandemic. That was
Speaker 1: the approach, even before a single American had died. I
Speaker 1: was there. I was the one trying to make the case,
Speaker 1: and I remember I was Actually it was one of
Speaker 1: these moments where I felt a little bit stunned and
Speaker 1: then was annoyed at myself because of course I should
Speaker 1: know that that's how Trump deranged. They were, But there
Speaker 1: was a part of me that really wanted to believe,
Speaker 1: just as an American, that going into this they would
Speaker 1: We could all agree that any sitting president wouldn't want
Speaker 1: mass casualties from a pandemic on his watch. We all
Speaker 1: can we all agree? No, we could not all agree
Speaker 1: with that. I mean, I've already said this. You know,
Speaker 1: if the Islamic State had tried to invade America under
Speaker 1: the Obama presidency, I would have been rooting for Commander
Speaker 1: in Chief Obama to deploy our forces and you know,
Speaker 1: get it done right there. There are some lines you
Speaker 1: think that we can draw here that aren't But nope,
Speaker 1: they really they really believed and still believe more so
Speaker 1: than ever now that Trump is entirely indifferent to human suffering,
Speaker 1: doesn't care how many people die. They have created this
Speaker 1: caricature of a monster. I mean they think that he
Speaker 1: is morally equivalent to a serial killer. But remember now,
Speaker 1: after that, after calling us all Nazis and white supremacists
Speaker 1: and white nationalists and saying we're destroying democracy, now we're
Speaker 1: going to have unity and a return to normalcy that's
Speaker 1: not gonna last three months no matter who up winning
Speaker 1: this president. Return to normalcy. As I've been saying, this
Speaker 1: is absurd. What does that What does that even mean?
Speaker 1: As you know, one of my favorite questions to ask
Speaker 1: about liberal stupidity, What does that even mean? Turn to normalcy?
Speaker 1: It means that joy Beja's gonna be able to say,
Speaker 1: you know, the president is like he doesn't even care.
Speaker 1: He's such a monster, he doesn't even care. He's just
Speaker 1: gonna like just to have everyone's gonna die and it's
Speaker 1: terrible and he's orange. There you go, and let's pair
Speaker 1: a couple million bucks put her on TV so you know,
Speaker 1: liberal housewives have somebody to watch during the day. It's absurd.
Speaker 1: You're in the freedom Hud. This is the Buck Sexton
Speaker 1: Show podcast. This is a great a moment of great
Speaker 1: national challenge. COVID nineteen is searching. Small businesses are shuddering,
Speaker 1: Families are struggling. People continue to lose jobs and not
Speaker 1: gain new ones. We just had a divisive and hard
Speaker 1: fought presidential election. But instead of working, but instead of
Speaker 1: working to pull the country back together so that we
Speaker 1: can fight our common enemy, COVID nineteen, Republicans in Congress
Speaker 1: are spreading conspiracy theories, denying reality, and poisoning the well
Speaker 1: of our democracy. The Republicans should stop their shenanigans about
Speaker 1: an election that President Trump has already lost and focus
Speaker 1: their attention on the immediate issue at hand, providing relief
Speaker 1: to a country living through the COVID health and economic crisis.
Speaker 1: What's the rush, chuck. They can walk and chew gum
Speaker 1: at the same time. In the administration, it's a very
Speaker 1: big federal government, a lot of people doing a lot
Speaker 1: of things. It's okay, we can we can hire some lawyers.
Speaker 1: A country three hundred and thirty million people. We can
Speaker 1: hire a few hundred lawyers to bring lawsuits in different states.
Speaker 1: That's fine, we can handle that. It's important that we
Speaker 1: actually know what happened in the election. It's important the
Speaker 1: margins are small enough that it's worth asking the question
Speaker 1: whether there was substantial in a fraud or even just mistakes.
Speaker 1: And we know there were mistakes, and we also kind
Speaker 1: of know there was fraud too, right, just don't know
Speaker 1: how much. So we're gonna find out more. Consider this
Speaker 1: a tune up of our democracy. Consider this, you know,
Speaker 1: honing in on what works and what doesn't for election security.
Speaker 1: Don't don't we want that? Don't we want this to
Speaker 1: be a finely a finely tuned, a well oiled machine
Speaker 1: of vote casting and vote counting, something we should have
Speaker 1: thought about a long time ago, and they made a
Speaker 1: lot of changes this year. The argument in favor of
Speaker 1: all this is completely rational. But instead you've got Chuck
Speaker 1: Schumer talking about poisoning the well of our democracy, oh
Speaker 1: boy oh, and also pretending attending that Biden here has
Speaker 1: a mandate. That's where they're gonna go with this guy
Speaker 1: squeaked out of victory, with the entire media in his pocket,
Speaker 1: with pollsters doing propaganda poles for him, constantly showing him
Speaker 1: far far out of Trumps not reality. Was all bull,
Speaker 1: as we know, and he may have squeaked out this
Speaker 1: narrow victory in a pandemic year. Law seats for his
Speaker 1: party in the House, lost seats in the Senate, or
Speaker 1: at least didn't get the Senate majority, I should say,
Speaker 1: and it's a mandate. Oh, that's what they're claiming. Play one.
Speaker 1: The biggest change since election day is that Donald Trump,
Speaker 1: who was not for helping us in COVID, who was
Speaker 1: against the Hero's Bill, has lost. That was an overwhelming
Speaker 1: referendum by the American people. So, yes, we think there
Speaker 1: has been change. It should move things in our direction.
Speaker 1: We're willing to sit down and talk. They haven't wanted
Speaker 1: to talk. They seem to have stuck to their positions. Say,
Speaker 1: but what Joe Biden got in this election was a mandate,
Speaker 1: a mandate to address the challenges that our country faces
Speaker 1: as well as to have a positive initiative and how
Speaker 1: to grow the economy in a fair way. And in
Speaker 1: order to do that, we must address the pandemic. This
Speaker 1: election was more, maybe more a referendum on who can
Speaker 1: handle COVID well than anything else. The Donald Trump approach
Speaker 1: was repudiated. That Joe Biden approach was embraced. And that's
Speaker 1: why we think there's a better chance to get a
Speaker 1: bill in the lame duck if only the Republicans would
Speaker 1: stop embracing the ridiculous shenanigans that Trump is forcing them
Speaker 1: to do that this, you know, in the election, and
Speaker 1: focus on what people need. Everything he said there is nonsense,
Speaker 1: But I think it's important that you do hear what
Speaker 1: is being spewed by Democrat leadership. And those are the
Speaker 1: two most powerful elected Democrats in the country right now,
Speaker 1: Nancy pelos See and Chuck Schumer, and they're telling you
Speaker 1: that there was a mandate. I mean, that's laughable, right,
Speaker 1: we all understand that no, what we should have now
Speaker 1: would be what they're also saying at the same he
Speaker 1: is a mandate, but also he's going to be a
Speaker 1: moderate who reaches out to the other side and comes
Speaker 1: up with common sense solutions. But he's got a mandate.
Speaker 1: That's just a way of saying, we're gonna pretend that
Speaker 1: this is all bringing America together because that sounds good
Speaker 1: and makes our side, makes the Democrats feel good. And
Speaker 1: then the moment Republicans say, no, I don't think that
Speaker 1: amnesty is a good idea. No, I'm not really on
Speaker 1: board for the socialism. Can't say that I think the
Speaker 1: Green New Deal is intelligent or sane. They're gonna say
Speaker 1: we have a mandate for action, and they're gonna try
Speaker 1: to steamroll us, which is why this Georgia Senate runoff
Speaker 1: runoffs is so important. Thanks for listening to the Buses
Speaker 1: and Show podcast. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the
Speaker 1: iHeart Radio app before wherever you get your podcasts. Starting
Speaker 1: to get the sense here that Democrats are concerned that
Speaker 1: the Trump administration may due to them in this period
Speaker 1: between now in January. What was done to the Trump administration.
Speaker 1: You'll see it it comes up. They can't really hide it.
Speaker 1: There's a fear that they have and they're really hoping
Speaker 1: that we just forget all about the clear effort to
Speaker 1: undermine the peaceful transition of power with the Russia collusion probe.
Speaker 1: I do wish we at least had had the Durham
Speaker 1: report out by now. It's really shameful that that hasn't happened.
Speaker 1: I knew that it wasn't going to result in arrests
Speaker 1: and all the things that people were in conservative media
Speaker 1: world were promising, unfortunately, but I also feel like it
Speaker 1: would be useful at this stage to at least have
Speaker 1: that because if it waits and then you do have
Speaker 1: a Biden administration, it's all over, folks, right. If it waits,
Speaker 1: if it's held back, it's going to be a They'll
Speaker 1: give a public They'll give a public statement from the
Speaker 1: Office of Public Affairs in dj saying you know that
Speaker 1: turns out the Durham probe didn't find anything the end.
Speaker 1: That's what you get under a bid administration. You won't
Speaker 1: even have any additional facts or data release nothing. But
Speaker 1: it's amazing right now to see how the Democrats who
Speaker 1: were a part in particular of the coup plot against
Speaker 1: the president in twenty sixteen, which is what it was.
Speaker 1: I mean, they were trying to tear down, destroy and
Speaker 1: undo an election. That's what Russia collusion was all about.
Speaker 1: It was a lie. It was a lie for people
Speaker 1: that were emotionally so wounded by Hillary's loss that they
Speaker 1: would latch onto anything, including people who were very senior
Speaker 1: in the federal bureaucracy, including some of the most powerful
Speaker 1: Democrats in the country. And we've now seen beyond any
Speaker 1: reasonable doubt that the whole thing was a fraud, of fabrication.
Speaker 1: It was a weapon used against Trump and his supporters.
Speaker 1: Because you're hearing people like Adam Schiff, who is definitely
Speaker 1: in the top three and maybe the single biggest liar
Speaker 1: in politics today. I mean in Congress, for sure, you
Speaker 1: got Adam Schiff who was running around saying that he
Speaker 1: had seen evidence of collusion, that he knew it was there,
Speaker 1: just said whatever he had to say to keep that
Speaker 1: machinery going so they could stay on offense against Trump.
Speaker 1: Here he is saying he's concerned about the next rather
Speaker 1: that the sabotage for the next administration could occur right
Speaker 1: now play six. Perhaps equally dangerous are the people that
Speaker 1: he is replacing these agency heads with. And these are
Speaker 1: unqualified partisan hacks that really don't have the policy chops.
Speaker 1: I'm not being put in there for that reason. And
Speaker 1: if if we're not careful, they could create foreign policy
Speaker 1: crises in waiting for the new administration. And of course
Speaker 1: Donald Trump wouldn't care anything about that. One of the
Speaker 1: other points we emphasize you brought up the trial at
Speaker 1: the beginning of the segment in the trial is the
Speaker 1: one thing you can rely on with Donald Trump is
Speaker 1: he will do what's in his personal interest. He doesn't
Speaker 1: care what it means for the country. And if he
Speaker 1: can sabotage the next administration. He will do it. If
Speaker 1: he can retaliate against his enemies. He will do it.
Speaker 1: If he can stay in office and essentially vacate the election,
Speaker 1: he will do it now. Adam Schiff will lie, because
Speaker 1: that's all this guy does. He will do it. He
Speaker 1: will lie the things that he brings up there though,
Speaker 1: going after enemies, using the government to sabotage an incoming administration,
Speaker 1: that's what Obama did. That is what the Democrats did
Speaker 1: in twenty sixteen. I think that's something we all have
Speaker 1: to remember. I'm not willing to let that just pass
Speaker 1: by now because it's inconvenient to the Democrat unity and
Speaker 1: normalcy narrative. Sure, what was done to the Trump team
Speaker 1: coming into coming into power was a scandal that should
Speaker 1: have shaken this country to its foundations. But the primary
Speaker 1: apparatuses for the dissemination of information, the corporate media and
Speaker 1: big tech social media platforms, are in the Democrats pocket
Speaker 1: as we know. So they stretched it out so far,
Speaker 1: and they were so willing to be dishonest. Remember when
Speaker 1: they got all angry at Attorney General bar because he
Speaker 1: said there were spying on the guy. He's been the
Speaker 1: Attorney General before he's as qualified as any human being
Speaker 1: on the planet to hold this job right now. And
Speaker 1: he said, yeah, I think it's called spying, folks. I
Speaker 1: think when you're using electronic surveillance of somebody's private communications
Speaker 1: without their knowledge or consent, and not even going to
Speaker 1: a real court, going through the Fizer Court to do it,
Speaker 1: I think that's called spying. People also refer to the
Speaker 1: Fiser Court, which was used to go after Carter Page,
Speaker 1: who did nothing wrong. Nothing. I remember sitting down with
Speaker 1: Carter Page and talking to him. I said, you know, Carter,
Speaker 1: you're going out, You're giving all these interviews, and I'm
Speaker 1: just worried that you know they're coming after you, and
Speaker 1: you're he was talking to the Mueller probe, and we
Speaker 1: know the Mueller people were looking for even the smallest,
Speaker 1: the smallest misremembrance, the smallest infraction of fact into any
Speaker 1: testimony about anything, to nail somebody with a one zero
Speaker 1: zero one federal criminal charge right lying lying to federal investigators.
Speaker 1: And Carter looked at me, He's just like I, but Buck,
Speaker 1: I did nothing wrong. There's I can say. I'll tell
Speaker 1: them everything I said. Everything I did is like I
Speaker 1: got nothing to hide. I did nothing wrong. Now I'm
Speaker 1: just gonna tell you that's still not a good for
Speaker 1: those of you that ever remember what I would saying,
Speaker 1: and never talked to the FBI. Just don't forget that advice.
Speaker 1: Don't ever talk to them. You get a lawyer present,
Speaker 1: you set it all up beforehand. Maybe fine, Never talk
Speaker 1: to the FBI alone ever. Ever, if you're in the FBI,
Speaker 1: you should not talk to somebody elso the FBI in
Speaker 1: an investigative capacity of you, you know, if they're looking
Speaker 1: at your misconduct alone. So never ever, ever. But Carter
Speaker 1: Page was doing that. He was going around giving interviews,
Speaker 1: he was he was testifying the Special Counsel and going
Speaker 1: on TV at night and talking about because he's that
Speaker 1: innocent of any wrongdoing, did nothing, in fact, help the
Speaker 1: federal government, help the intelligence agencies and the FBI to
Speaker 1: deal with efforts at Russian Russian penetration of American secrets
Speaker 1: and national security interests, and they betrayed him. Imagine you're
Speaker 1: Carter Page. Imagine you are a veteran of the United
Speaker 1: States Navy who has actively worked to assist the federal
Speaker 1: government to find would be Russian spies and saboteurs, and
Speaker 1: you are then betrayed by the very people that you
Speaker 1: that you are in good faith helping because they needed
Speaker 1: an excuse to pretend that there was a big conspiracy
Speaker 1: involving an incoming administration with a very icky, bad Orange man.
Speaker 1: Wouldn't you be furious? See all your all your phone calls,
Speaker 1: all your emails, And I just think also of all
Speaker 1: the times I to debate Democrats on this, and they
Speaker 1: just were lying, lying, lying. Oh, the fiser court would
Speaker 1: never rely on the dossier. Oh, the fiser a court
Speaker 1: would never be subject to abuse for political reasons. They
Speaker 1: just hid behind all these slogans, phrases, talking points, bullcrap,
Speaker 1: no accountability for it. If anything, I've I've said this
Speaker 1: to you before they built up their careers even more.
Speaker 1: I mean, there are people on the left who are
Speaker 1: true more, I mean real imbeciles who don't know anything
Speaker 1: about anything, who wrote books about Russia collusion and they've
Speaker 1: sold copies, who gained huge social media followings because of
Speaker 1: their stance on Russia collusion. And there's been no downside
Speaker 1: of this at all. You know why, because it was
Speaker 1: useful against Trump. The truth did not matter. These people
Speaker 1: who lecture us all the time. These Democrats who were
Speaker 1: constantly grasping for another way to have a conversation about
Speaker 1: how Trump lies, they were perfectly happy to use the
Speaker 1: Trump administrator to use the lies about the Trump administration
Speaker 1: as a political weapon. And they knew what they were
Speaker 1: doing was wrong, and they knew what they were doing
Speaker 1: was misleading people didn't matter. It's justify Trump's arrangement syndrome
Speaker 1: means anything goes. So that's why you have Adam Shift
Speaker 1: concerned about sabotaging the next administration. And really we're worried
Speaker 1: about on foreign policy matters, Obama escalated against Russia. Remember
Speaker 1: that after the election. It wasn't serious enough that Obama
Speaker 1: would do anything before the election because they all thought
Speaker 1: Hillary was gonna win. But when Hillary didn't win, oh
Speaker 1: my gosh, this Russia collusion stuff. We need to start
Speaker 1: expelling Russian diplomats and putting sanctions on wealthy Russian oligarchs.
Speaker 1: And Trump expanded those sanctions. By the way, They're hoping
Speaker 1: they can get away with this rapid rewriting of the past.
Speaker 1: And then on MSNBC they want they want ever to
Speaker 1: know and they're better not be They're better not be
Speaker 1: any investigations going on of a Biden presidency played four.
Speaker 1: But what they want to focus on is investigating. They
Speaker 1: want to go after Hunter Biden still, they want to
Speaker 1: go after the investigations that led to impeachment, a time
Speaker 1: in which I think for a lot of people, you
Speaker 1: sort of became the modern day Thaddius Stevens, you know,
Speaker 1: making your arguments against Trump during impeachment. They want to
Speaker 1: go after the Mueller probe. Again, is this what we're
Speaker 1: going to have to sit through for the next four years,
Speaker 1: Republicans just doing investigations and refusing to legislate. Well, we may,
Speaker 1: you know, certainly, I think you're absolutely right about the
Speaker 1: fact that this wouldn't be going on right now, this
Speaker 1: obstruction of the transition, wouldn't be going on if Republicans
Speaker 1: weren't allowing it to go on. Indeed, that's been the
Speaker 1: story of the last four years. The story of the
Speaker 1: last four years is what the Republican obstruction of Trump? Well,
Speaker 1: what kind of garbage is this guy spewing? Now, I mean,
Speaker 1: obviously that's not what he's saying, but it doesn't even
Speaker 1: make any sense obstructing what oh the investigations that they
Speaker 1: freely conducted, that we're all in bad faith around Russia collusion,
Speaker 1: the lies, the miss representations to the court, the people
Speaker 1: that had to get fired after long careers the FBI
Speaker 1: because they were Democrat hacks. Oh yeah, James Cole, he's fired,
Speaker 1: and the FBI agents are all crying in the hallways.
Speaker 1: Those were real news reports that adults, adults, humans, I
Speaker 1: don't even care if they work at the FBI, cried
Speaker 1: because James Komey got fired. Oh no, so sad. Yeah,
Speaker 1: no investigations of democrat of a Democrat administration. Remember that.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna just take you through something here that you know,
Speaker 1: jog are our collective memories. There was a special counsel
Speaker 1: against Trump, as we know Russia collusion. It was a farce,
Speaker 1: and then they impeached him anyway, And there was, of
Speaker 1: course the investigations that were leading up to the impeachment too,
Speaker 1: So they were presenting evidence so that they used investigation
Speaker 1: as the most vicious, dishonest weaponization they possibly could against
Speaker 1: the Trump administration. Don't forget they did the same thing
Speaker 1: against Bush. They got a special counsel to go headhunting
Speaker 1: within the against the Bush administration. They thought they were
Speaker 1: going to get cal Rover Dick Cheney. That was the
Speaker 1: whole point. They thought they're going to nail one of
Speaker 1: them because of a journalist having a conversation that they
Speaker 1: claimed outed a CIA officer something. This is something I
Speaker 1: know a bit about. Folks who was in no jeopardy
Speaker 1: or danger, who was exposing herself to all kinds of
Speaker 1: obvious questions about what she was doing, what her husband
Speaker 1: was doing with I mean, she opposed on the cover
Speaker 1: of Vanity Fair after this happened. Give me a break.
Speaker 1: The whole thing was like a PR stunt. Oh, my
Speaker 1: career is ruined, except you got a million dollar book
Speaker 1: deal to write crappy fiction nobody ever read. Oh, it
Speaker 1: was so terrible. It was weaponize, you know, the weaponization
Speaker 1: of this against me. They had a special counsel. They
Speaker 1: investigated everybody in the White House to find out the
Speaker 1: source of a league that they knew the source of
Speaker 1: the league. It was Richard Armitage before they did anything.
Speaker 1: They knew right away. As soon as the special counsel
Speaker 1: was announced, Armitage came forward said, look, it was a mistake.
Speaker 1: I didn't know. I'm sorry. Ah, But they didn't say,
Speaker 1: oh no, worry. You're fine. They said, well, we maybe
Speaker 1: will prosecute you. You do everything we say, and you
Speaker 1: shut your mouth and let us go around looking for
Speaker 1: a looking for a Bush administration scalp. They did that. Okay,
Speaker 1: so we have one. We have a Republican Administration Special Council.
Speaker 1: We have Obama go back another one, Republican Administration Special Council.
Speaker 1: But no investigations of Democrats. No, no, not allowed. You see,
Speaker 1: they can't hide it. They are concerned that we will
Speaker 1: do to them what they have done to us, and
Speaker 1: that would be really mean and it would hurt our
Speaker 1: sacred democracy. You don't say you're in the freedom hud.
Speaker 1: This is the Buck Sex and Show podcast, AOC and
Speaker 1: mansion in West Virginia. She tweeted out. She has an
Speaker 1: enormous social media following, which does not speak well to
Speaker 1: the future of our republic, considering how many young people
Speaker 1: are influenced by someone who is among the most ignorant
Speaker 1: and dumbest members of the United States Congress. But anyway,
Speaker 1: she is tweeting out. She tweeted out this thing of
Speaker 1: her staring at mansion because Mansion. Senator from West Virginia
Speaker 1: has already said he will not go along with this
Speaker 1: nonsense extremism from the left and has called out defund
Speaker 1: the police and socialism as a bad idea. The fact
Speaker 1: that there's anyone in this country who still brings up
Speaker 1: defund the police as anything other than among the most
Speaker 1: mindless and destructive slogans could you could have in politics
Speaker 1: is pretty is pretty mind blowing in and of itself.
Speaker 1: But the AOC wing remember this. They don't learn lessons
Speaker 1: about this stuff. They're not about to all of a
Speaker 1: sudden and become normal in their outlook for America and
Speaker 1: for the future. They are radicals, They are committed. They
Speaker 1: really believe that this is what needs to happen, that
Speaker 1: this is the future of the country, and they're gonna
Speaker 1: try and do everything they can to name and shame
Speaker 1: anyone in politics or in public life who, especially if
Speaker 1: there are a Democrat. I mean apostasy, right, the crime
Speaker 1: of turning against your religion, leaving your religion. Apostasy within
Speaker 1: Democrat ranks will not be tolerated. They will not allow this.
Speaker 1: Can't have people start to say, hey, hold on a second,
Speaker 1: I didn't sign up for this Democrat party because the
Speaker 1: people inside who are the most committed are the far
Speaker 1: left once you get to the more mainstream Democrats. I mean,
Speaker 1: Pelosi is a Pelosiist, and she's all about political transactions
Speaker 1: and power, so she has she has no scruples or
Speaker 1: vision of the future. It's just what does she need
Speaker 1: to do, what's best for Nancy Pelosi. Oh, they do
Speaker 1: love to say this about about Trump, which I always
Speaker 1: find so funny. Here's Anderson Cooper who's having a fun
Speaker 1: time talking about the president's slogan and how it's all selfishness. Play.
Speaker 1: Ten Aid's telling CNN that he is now dejected and downcast.
Speaker 1: Not about the lack of ICU beds in Utah. Now
Speaker 1: he's dejected over losing the election, about himself. Sources also
Speaker 1: telling us his kids are split over what to do next.
Speaker 1: Not what to do about COVID, mind you, not about
Speaker 1: those fourteen hundred and thirty five Americans who died yesterday. No,
Speaker 1: the kids are split over what their daddy's next move
Speaker 1: should be. Should he accept defeat and try to salvage
Speaker 1: something of his legacy, or continue to make up claims
Speaker 1: and widespread voter fraud and lie to the very people
Speaker 1: who believe him. Most his supporters keeping him honest, accepting defeat.
Speaker 1: It's not up to him. He was defeated. He lost.
Speaker 1: He lost an election that his own Department of Homeland
Speaker 1: Security tonight calls quote, the most secure in American history.
Speaker 1: Let that sink in the Department of hopefu Land Security
Speaker 1: calls it the most secure in American history. In other words,
Speaker 1: this shouldn't even be a thing, but it is. And
Speaker 1: as a consequence, we are watching America first, give way
Speaker 1: to me first, and suspecting it was always that anyway,
Speaker 1: Noticed that Anderson Cooper slips in there. You know, if
Speaker 1: he would just concede, he could he could salvage some
Speaker 1: of his reputation. Here. Bend the knee, that's what that
Speaker 1: Bend the knee. We promise we'll make it easier for you.
Speaker 1: We promise it'll be better for you. Just bend the knee.
Speaker 1: What have we learned from Trump more than anyone else
Speaker 1: the last four years. No, do not bend the knee.
Speaker 1: Do not cave to their demands because there's no benefit.
Speaker 1: Never mind, stand tall, stand proud, stay in the fight,
Speaker 1: shields high. They're just going to use You're bending the
Speaker 1: knee against you. Thanks for listening to the Busson Show podcasts.
Speaker 1: Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeart Radio app four,
Speaker 1: wherever you get your podcasts. Speaking of bending the knee
Speaker 1: with COVID cases, here at a a one day all
Speaker 1: time record. I think one hundred and fifty thousand in
Speaker 1: the US is what they're saying. And with where we
Speaker 1: are with hospitalizations, you've got sixty seven thousand, ninety six
Speaker 1: yesterday nationwide, twelve thousand, seven hundred ninety six nineteen patients
Speaker 1: and ICUs, we're about to have the the chorus of
Speaker 1: listen to the science shouted in our faces all the time.
Speaker 1: Listen to the science, even from within some of the
Speaker 1: Trump administration. Let's understand this before I start bashing the
Speaker 1: liberal lunatics, which of course we will do. I think
Speaker 1: that even a lot of people that work for Trump,
Speaker 1: I think the Trump administration has been uh, you know,
Speaker 1: pushed into this corner where they often say and do
Speaker 1: things that are not are not helpful, not what is
Speaker 1: the what's the best way forward during this COVID pandemic?
Speaker 1: And you know, here's alex Azar of HHS play five. Well,
Speaker 1: if we've posted guidelines and recommendations at CDC dot gov
Speaker 1: Coronavirus dot gov. As you think about your Thanksgiving gathering,
Speaker 1: please address those circumstances there. Reduce the number of people
Speaker 1: at you're gathering. If you can open the windows, let
Speaker 1: more ventilation, and we've got very practical things. Even if
Speaker 1: you have a ceiling fan, set it so it pulls
Speaker 1: the air up, and set it down. Use single use
Speaker 1: servings for individuals where your face coverings. Because I want
Speaker 1: to make sure even if we make sacrifices this Thanksgiving
Speaker 1: and Christmas, those sacrifices are for a reason, so that
Speaker 1: everybody you want to be with will be here for
Speaker 1: next Thanksgiving and next next Christmas. As I said, I'm
Speaker 1: grateful to you, mister Secretary, for saying that I would
Speaker 1: be grateful if very pleased if the President of the
Speaker 1: United States, we're to follow your lead and say the
Speaker 1: same thing, because there are a lot of Americans out
Speaker 1: there who support him, who are totally totally opposed to
Speaker 1: putting on a face mask, to wearing a mask, and
Speaker 1: that is so dangerous. So on masking, as you know,
Speaker 1: an issue of particular contention for me. We had an
Speaker 1: all time high of cases yesterday. Every data set you
Speaker 1: can find, every pole, all the numbers you can look
Speaker 1: at on masking. There is more universal adoption of masking
Speaker 1: in the United States now than at any point during
Speaker 1: the pandemic. And we just did an all time record
Speaker 1: for cases yesterday. Well, what's going on? How well do
Speaker 1: these things? How well can they really work? If remember,
Speaker 1: people with masks on are still getting sick constantly, constantly.
Speaker 1: If it works the way they tell us, why isn't
Speaker 1: Why doesn't it you know completely? Oh, you breathe in
Speaker 1: and it catches the droplets and then the virus doesn't
Speaker 1: get into the air. M Really, how effective are they?
Speaker 1: You got in places like New York they estimate eighty
Speaker 1: to nine constant mask adoption meeting people are wearing masks
Speaker 1: or compliance you could say, wearing masks whenever they're in public,
Speaker 1: whenever they're indoors with people all the time. Right, it
Speaker 1: completely obeying all these rules and regulations. Okay, so shouldn't
Speaker 1: we be fine? You know, I really I asked this
Speaker 1: just I want people to think through this on their
Speaker 1: own somehow, And this is just a fact. This is
Speaker 1: just the truth. And they don't want you asking these questions.
Speaker 1: They just want you to obey. But we're now being
Speaker 1: told that a mask mandate will save over one hundred
Speaker 1: thousand lives. And it's such obvious science that we should
Speaker 1: all be masking up all the time that only a
Speaker 1: fool would question it. But somehow it also took our
Speaker 1: top experts at the CDC and the NIH months and
Speaker 1: tens of thousands of American deaths to figure out this
Speaker 1: super obvious thing that masks are so good. They say
Speaker 1: the science change, but they never explain how. Because whatever
Speaker 1: we say, well, I don't want to do this, they say,
Speaker 1: it's not even if it doesn't work that well, it's
Speaker 1: not that much of an imposition, just do it, Just
Speaker 1: do it, all right, But if it's not that much
Speaker 1: of an imposition, But it's so obvious that it would
Speaker 1: work when we thought this would have a five percent
Speaker 1: as high as five percent were the early estimates fatality rate,
Speaker 1: which could have led to a few million Americans dying
Speaker 1: from this. That was back in February March time frame.
Speaker 1: But why wouldn't they have sent everyone mask up right away?
Speaker 1: Oh now they claim it's because of asymptomatic cases, and
Speaker 1: they didn't know that. You know, there's a lot of
Speaker 1: sort of mealy mouthed you know stuff that they're saying.
Speaker 1: But no, they tell us, now, masking is no being deal.
Speaker 1: It's not that annoying buck where that mask on the treadmill.
Speaker 1: Don't complain about it. Just keep breathing in your own flegm. There,
Speaker 1: let's just go for it. That's fine. Who cares, it's
Speaker 1: not too much of an imposition. Well, for the first
Speaker 1: ninety days of this, when people were dying all over
Speaker 1: the place and there was lots of spread of the virus,
Speaker 1: they were saying, now to wear a mask. Now you
Speaker 1: question it and they say, oh, dare you Okay? What changed?
Speaker 1: They say it's asymptomatic cases. Well that that shouldn't have
Speaker 1: changed the you know, we should have just said everybody.
Speaker 1: And oh and by the way, that's also a dodge
Speaker 1: because even with the flu, we know that you are
Speaker 1: perhaps that you're most contagious twenty four hours before you
Speaker 1: show symptoms. So when they say that we didn't tell
Speaker 1: people the mask because only sick people should mask, it
Speaker 1: was only when we found out about asymptomatic cases that
Speaker 1: are our risk assessment on all this changed. So they
Speaker 1: wanted people to be exposed to this deadly virus that
Speaker 1: could have all been stopped by masks until they knew
Speaker 1: that asymptomatic people could carry it. But there are plenty
Speaker 1: of people that don't show symptoms with any respiratory virus
Speaker 1: that will be contagious before they show symptoms. To see
Speaker 1: what I mean, there's a there's a problem here. Friends,
Speaker 1: There's some aspects of this that you haven't been told
Speaker 1: the truth about, that's for sure. And there's going to
Speaker 1: be increased media panic now because remember Trump is still
Speaker 1: the president. He is still the president, and as long
Speaker 1: as he is still the president, there is an incentive
Speaker 1: to make this as miserable and horrible for everybody as
Speaker 1: is possible. And so you have doctor Gupta over CNN.
Speaker 1: Overt CNN here he is played nineteen. That's what we're
Speaker 1: seeing here. And I think the idea that so many
Speaker 1: of these debts that are happening in United States are
Speaker 1: preventable just adds to that idea that this is a
Speaker 1: true humanitarian crisis. The Doctors without Borders have come to
Speaker 1: the United States to do their work. They go to
Speaker 1: the hottest spots in the world. They look at the
Speaker 1: earth and say where are we needed. Well, they're needed
Speaker 1: here in the United States. Right now. So I know
Speaker 1: it's tough to hear. I've already gotten a lot of
Speaker 1: a lot of emails and social about the fact that
Speaker 1: I call to seumanitarian disaster. But I stand by it.
Speaker 1: It is and hopefully it inspires people to do something
Speaker 1: about it. What did you want us to do about it? Oh,
Speaker 1: shut up and listen to democrats? And wear that mask
Speaker 1: all the time, Wear that mask between bites of food,
Speaker 1: wear that mask. Wear more masks, double up on masks.
Speaker 1: Why not goggles? I don't understand. It's not that big
Speaker 1: of an imposition. Go through rest of your life wearing
Speaker 1: goggles on a mask. What's the problem for a disease
Speaker 1: that has a ninety nine point seven percent survival rate? Okay,
Speaker 1: that seems to me to be a little bit extreme.
Speaker 1: Why not? Why not? Why not demand that we all
Speaker 1: wear N ninety five masks? And ninety five masks are
Speaker 1: better scientifically speaking, there's no doubt about it. At N
Speaker 1: ninety five mask is better for protection against inhaling pathogens,
Speaker 1: aerosolized pathogens. That's just a fact. So why not require that? Well?
Speaker 1: If you require that, you ask, well, if we're really
Speaker 1: going to save lives, shouldn't we have everybody wearing a
Speaker 1: full on respirator, you know, we'll go around like we're
Speaker 1: all living in space, like we're on the planet Mars.
Speaker 1: Shouldn't we do that? Why not? You see, it's our faults,
Speaker 1: that's ultimately. But when I say it's our fault, it's
Speaker 1: not the fault of all the people dancing in the
Speaker 1: street last weekend in New York and huge crowds because
Speaker 1: they were so happy about Joe Biden's media declaration of victory.
Speaker 1: They're not at fault. It's anyone who questions this. They're
Speaker 1: the people. I wear a mask every day. I wear
Speaker 1: a mask all the time, and I have to. I
Speaker 1: have no choice. I can't even I can't leave my home.
Speaker 1: It is not possible for me to leave my home
Speaker 1: without wearing a mask without running a foul of New
Speaker 1: York state law. Right now, can I walk through a
Speaker 1: common area of my of my home, which I have
Speaker 1: to I have to go through the lobby. There's no
Speaker 1: other way for me to get out, have to wear
Speaker 1: a mask, wear a mask all the time. So I'm
Speaker 1: just making the case that this is not doing what
Speaker 1: they say it's doing, and they're gonna get increasingly irrational
Speaker 1: and panicked about this because as cases keep going up,
Speaker 1: keep going, keep going up, intelligent people who are paying attention,
Speaker 1: they're gonna say, we're all wearing masks. Cases are spiking,
Speaker 1: going up, going up, going up. I thought, these your
Speaker 1: masks protects you, My mask protects me. If you listen
Speaker 1: to the science, I say, okay, I listen to the science.
Speaker 1: Explain to me why goggles and an N ninety five
Speaker 1: masks are necessary for Rsli's measles for a person who
Speaker 1: does not have immunity to it, and that a cloth
Speaker 1: mask is considered completely insufficient for that. But for this
Speaker 1: it's great, awesome. It's a supertool, better even than a vaccine.
Speaker 1: The CDC director said, I'm sorry, we're not all cheap.
Speaker 1: Some people want answers and want to think about this,
Speaker 1: and at some point, I think it's also fair to
Speaker 1: say this is a five percent reduction in cases total
Speaker 1: across the country. But it's a reduction for what period
Speaker 1: of time, let's say, or maybe it's even a thirty percent.
Speaker 1: I don't know. No one knows the number. No one's
Speaker 1: ever really Here's what they won't tell you. All of
Speaker 1: the previous testing about masks and influenza season. During the
Speaker 1: flu season, the previous major testing said that they couldn't
Speaker 1: prove any benefit to people wearing masks when the flu
Speaker 1: is spreading. There are lots of peer reviewed studies looking
Speaker 1: at this. They ignore that. Now this is different, this mask.
Speaker 1: This is a a virus that's terrified of masks. It
Speaker 1: melts like a vampire in the sun when you wear
Speaker 1: a mask. You know, they really wants you to do.
Speaker 1: They want you to bend the knee, just do what
Speaker 1: they say. They like that it makes them feel better.
Speaker 1: They've created a world full of anxiety about this for themselves,
Speaker 1: and they expect you to live in that too and
Speaker 1: do what they say. Here you go, here's here's Don
Speaker 1: Lement monsieur Don lament over at CNN Play seven. We've
Speaker 1: gotten better at treating this disease, at keeping people alive.
Speaker 1: It's not that it's changed, that it's morphed and all that,
Speaker 1: or it's less invasive or deadly or you know, or infectious.
Speaker 1: It is that we have gotten better at treating people
Speaker 1: at keeping them alive. You don't throw them on ventilators
Speaker 1: right away. You keep their lungs strong, and you know,
Speaker 1: and the things that you went through, the advice that
Speaker 1: you gave people. So for everybody who's out there thinking, oh, well,
Speaker 1: it's no big deal, and then I don't wear the
Speaker 1: mask and I don't want the lockdown. If you don't
Speaker 1: want the lockdown, it's very simple. Just do what the
Speaker 1: experts tell you. Socially, distance, look out for others, wear
Speaker 1: a mask, so on and so forth, and then maybe
Speaker 1: we wouldn't have to close restaurants down and all of
Speaker 1: those things, which which who wants that? Nobody wants, you know.
Speaker 1: I now, I'm just gonna tell you this. This is dumb,
Speaker 1: but it's don Lemons. Is not surprising. Restaurants are going
Speaker 1: to close down in some places no matter how much
Speaker 1: mask wearing we do. I can assure you of that.
Speaker 1: They're not even open in New York right now, so
Speaker 1: I mean to close them down. They're twenty five percent
Speaker 1: capacity and they're probably gonna take that away soon. They're
Speaker 1: already closing them at ten o'clock at night. They're limiting
Speaker 1: the hours. Wear a mask and we won't have to
Speaker 1: do this thing to you. That's this is the rude
Speaker 1: fallacy of this. Do what we say, wear that mask
Speaker 1: and we won't have to take all these unpleasant measures.
Speaker 1: They will take the unpleasant measures even though we're doing
Speaker 1: these things they tell us to do, and then they'll
Speaker 1: say it's our fault. Sorry, we didn't want to have
Speaker 1: to do this to you. You're making us do this
Speaker 1: to You're making us lock you down. We didn't want
Speaker 1: to do this, but you didn't listen. Well, no, we
Speaker 1: did listen. You know. There was an analysis in the
Speaker 1: Wall Street Journals fascinating of how they got to this number,
Speaker 1: the one hundred and thirty thousand lives I think it
Speaker 1: was that would be saved with mask wearing between now
Speaker 1: and the end of the flu season. I think it
Speaker 1: is so basically March of twenty twenty one, one hundred
Speaker 1: and thirty thousand lives they say will be saved. But
Speaker 1: the numbers in the study, and this is published in
Speaker 1: Nature Medicine, I think the journal, and it was pure
Speaker 1: viewed in like a day, so they just rushed this
Speaker 1: thing out. Oh, rush this thing out. Yeah, what a surprise.
Speaker 1: But the numbers they used in the study estimate that
Speaker 1: mask adoption in America is at the number it was
Speaker 1: at something like in maybe you know, nationwide, we're talking
Speaker 1: about now, not in places that were hard hit. It's
Speaker 1: like forty percent nationwide. And that was back in March April,
Speaker 1: I think. And so remember we're already a lot of us,
Speaker 1: I mean, New York I've been telling you hit by
Speaker 1: the pandemic terribly. Everybody was masked. If you try to
Speaker 1: go near anybody without a mask on indoors, outdoors or whatever,
Speaker 1: it was like you were a vampire trying to suck
Speaker 1: their blood. I mean they everybody was masked up, and
Speaker 1: cases just kept going and going and going, and people
Speaker 1: kept dying. I'm here, I saw it. I'm writing them.
Speaker 1: I'm in the most densely part of New York City,
Speaker 1: and I'm out and about all the time, multiple times
Speaker 1: a day. Everybody was wearing masks. Disease flourishing all over
Speaker 1: the place anyway. But you know, if we'd only wore
Speaker 1: masks more, that IHM ensued for health Metrics and Evaluation
Speaker 1: model that said one hundred and thirty thousand people will
Speaker 1: die was based on a forty percent mask adoption number.
Speaker 1: We're more at eighty percent now, maybe as high as
Speaker 1: ninety percent nationwide. We're masked up all over the place,
Speaker 1: but everyone's masking up, indoors, masking, masking all over the place.
Speaker 1: According to the data that we have, five percent of
Speaker 1: Americans don't wear masks. Five percent. I'm sure a lot
Speaker 1: of them live in rural areas or less popular at areas,
Speaker 1: and they're not even coming to contact with people that
Speaker 1: much anyway. Five percent aren't wearing masks. They were This
Speaker 1: is brought to that studies attention. This is all written
Speaker 1: on the Wall Street Journal. Brought to that studies attention,
Speaker 1: and they're like, yeah, whatever. So they made a projection
Speaker 1: about how one hundred and thirty thousand lives would be
Speaker 1: saved based upon a completely erroneous sense of how many
Speaker 1: people are actually wearing masks right now. And when presented
Speaker 1: with that information that, oh, yeah, whatever, do what we say, peasant,
Speaker 1: don't ask questions. That's what they're telling you. You're in
Speaker 1: the freedom This is the Buck Sex and Show podcast.
Speaker 1: You know, what is your message to the people who
Speaker 1: apparently are tired of wearing the mask over their nose
Speaker 1: as well as their mouth. They think it's uncomfortable and
Speaker 1: annoying and it's just too much for them to handle,
Speaker 1: so they're just not doing it. Thank you, Thank you,
Speaker 1: you know what's really uncomfortable and annoying. When you die.
Speaker 1: That's the argument. Wear a mask or you'll die. Do
Speaker 1: what we say, you'll die. That's what That's what it's
Speaker 1: really come down to where we are. Okay, that's really
Speaker 1: tough to have a worthwhile discussion around, isn't it. This
Speaker 1: is this is tyrannical stuff, folks. This is really troublesome.
Speaker 1: And I've been very disappointed all along at just how
Speaker 1: many Americans go along with this because fear people are afraid.
Speaker 1: It's I'm like, I'm immune to this. I haven't gotten
Speaker 1: some secret vaccine or something. I mean, I could get
Speaker 1: this too. I might end up doing you know, this
Speaker 1: show for who knows a week or two what I'm saying, guys,
Speaker 1: I got COVID. I'm a little sick. But I'm doing
Speaker 1: the show from home, so we'll be you know, I'm
Speaker 1: no one seeing me, and I'll just keep trying to
Speaker 1: do it every day and it could happen. But I
Speaker 1: want us to have as much of our lives back
Speaker 1: as possible, and I also want us to have our
Speaker 1: autonomy back. One aspect of this conversation that doesn't get
Speaker 1: nearly enough attention is a difference between taking precautions and
Speaker 1: safety measures that you yourself think are necessary for you
Speaker 1: and your health and mandates. They want mandates. They want
Speaker 1: the government to stick its finger in your chest and
Speaker 1: say you are gonna do this based on what again,
Speaker 1: based on the certainty of a scientific thesis that they
Speaker 1: disagreed with eight months ago. Doesn't that seem a little
Speaker 1: a little strange to you? Ah, Yes, government has all
Speaker 1: the answers. Thanks for listening to the bus seton Show podcast.
Speaker 1: Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeart Radio app,
Speaker 1: or wherever you get your podcasts. We've got a word
Speaker 1: for people who want to cancel Christmas, call them a grinch.
Speaker 1: I think we need a term for people that want
Speaker 1: to cancel Thanksgiving, because that's a thing that's happening right now.
Speaker 1: City of Chicago Mayor Lorie Lightfoot's come out to say, look,
Speaker 1: you really shouldn't be close to loved ones. Cancel your
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving plans. Sorry, too dangerous, too much, too much COVID
Speaker 1: out there. Can't take the risk. This is what we've
Speaker 1: come to now as a country. We have politicians who
Speaker 1: are declaring that you can't gather with your family over
Speaker 1: a holiday. Because of the still statistically rather small chance
Speaker 1: that any one individual will get COVID and then beyond
Speaker 1: that will die from COVID, the treatments have gotten much better.
Speaker 1: You know, you've got a thirty percent better chance of
Speaker 1: making it out of the hospital if you go in
Speaker 1: with COVID than you did before. It's pretty substantial. In
Speaker 1: less than one year, we got vaccines on the horizon.
Speaker 1: They want panic. They liked this power and control, and
Speaker 1: they want to just tell you the worst possible news
Speaker 1: and make the most restrictive, most draconian proclamations possible, so
Speaker 1: that then they can't be held responsible no matter what happens. Right. Oh,
Speaker 1: they did their part. I said cancel Thanksgiving, and so
Speaker 1: nobody can get mad at me, my friends. This is crazy.
Speaker 1: You have different governors and mayors that are telling people
Speaker 1: how many family members they're allowed to have in their home.
Speaker 1: In New York, Governor Cuomo says there's a ten person
Speaker 1: limit Thanksgiving. I might have more than ten people at
Speaker 1: my Thanksgiving this year. I think it's likely based on
Speaker 1: the numbers. What are they going to do? Rest me?
Speaker 1: Oh so nine people in a room isn't dangerous? But
Speaker 1: eleven people is how much dumber are their policies going
Speaker 1: to get? They really think that they're going to shut
Speaker 1: down COVID with ten pm restaurant curfews. Now you gotta
Speaker 1: shut down indoor dining at ten pm, safe until nine thirty,
Speaker 1: but at ten pm not allowed. Got to tell people
Speaker 1: to go home take out only wear that mask, peasant,
Speaker 1: don't ask any questions. I'm sorry, I'm not about to
Speaker 1: let this one go. I don't think they should be
Speaker 1: able to cancel Thanksgiving. I think that human beings, Americans,
Speaker 1: I think we should be able to exercise basic autonomy.
Speaker 1: We should be able to make our own decisions about risk,
Speaker 1: about family, about loved ones, what we're willing to do.
Speaker 1: If the government can tell you can't gather for Thanksgiving
Speaker 1: because there's a pandemic, why can't they tell you can't
Speaker 1: gather for Thanksgiving for any other number of reasons. There's
Speaker 1: flu every year, very highly transmissible among family members. Could
Speaker 1: they shut you down for that too? If not, why not?
Speaker 1: Justice Alito of the Supreme Court gave a speech ear
Speaker 1: this week in which he said, we got to go
Speaker 1: back to a place where we respect constitutional rights. This
Speaker 1: COVID is so scary thing, does not nullify the Constitution.
Speaker 1: There is no special clause that says you have a
Speaker 1: bill of rights unless there's a scary respiratory virus that's
Speaker 1: really bad for older people that doesn't exist. They don't
Speaker 1: get to just make it up as they go along.
Speaker 1: They've seized these emergency powers, they've made all these declarations,
Speaker 1: and they've also made it very clear that they have
Speaker 1: much more respect for marijuana shops, casinos, all kinds of stuff,
Speaker 1: but not churches. Church is not an essential business. You
Speaker 1: see the Democrats who believe that, whether they'll say so
Speaker 1: or not, they've provided people with a religion replacement. Being
Speaker 1: an ideological leftist, they don't think the church. They don't
Speaker 1: think that worship is essential at all. They don't think
Speaker 1: you're allowed to take any risk. Keep in mind, people
Speaker 1: have been getting respiratory infections from going to crowded places
Speaker 1: of public worship for as long as people have been
Speaker 1: gathering anywhere. But now they say, no, it's too dangerous.
Speaker 1: You can go to target, go buy a weed whacker.
Speaker 1: That's fine, totally necessary. Can't go to church. Though these
Speaker 1: are government decisions. It's the government that has decided in
Speaker 1: Democrat blue states in particular, to send in people with
Speaker 1: the force of the state to say that you can't gather,
Speaker 1: to say that we'll find you, will even arrest you
Speaker 1: if need be, and to institute this policy all with
Speaker 1: the backing of what scientific consensus. Consensus is in science,
Speaker 1: everybody should know that there's no such thing. They should
Speaker 1: be able to prove. Have they proved to you how
Speaker 1: effective masked mandates are? Have they proved to you how
Speaker 1: effective lockdowns are. Let's all remember that lockdowns were until
Speaker 1: this year, considered by the pandemic preparation experts within the
Speaker 1: scientific community to be not worth the cost, not effective enough,
Speaker 1: and too damaging to society. But then people got scared
Speaker 1: and they panicked, and the politicians started making demands. And
Speaker 1: this is where we find ourselves in our current situation,
Speaker 1: about to go into another series of lockdowns. They'll call
Speaker 1: it something else, They'll say, these are mitigation measures for
Speaker 1: your health whatever. They are making decisions about your business,
Speaker 1: about your life, about core constitutional values on a whim
Speaker 1: because of fear, because of fear, And that's why so
Speaker 1: many Americans, unfortunately are just going along with this. They're
Speaker 1: scared too the media has terrified them. A lot of
Speaker 1: this was because a terrified population is more likely to
Speaker 1: vote for change. And if they vote for change, that's
Speaker 1: going to mean not Donald Trump. We all know that.
Speaker 1: But as I've been saying for months, even if Biden
Speaker 1: takes the presidency here, they're not going to let you
Speaker 1: have your life back. They're not going to give you
Speaker 1: back your freedoms. We're going to have to demand it.
Speaker 1: We're going to have to use the system in the process.
Speaker 1: They're going to have to be a lot of lawsuits.
Speaker 1: We'n to take governments to court and hope that judges
Speaker 1: still respect the Constitution, hope that they still believe in
Speaker 1: the rule of law that gives them all of their
Speaker 1: authority and power. Too. Then the politics of the moment
Speaker 1: and all the panic porns spread by Democrat media constantly
Speaker 1: doesn't override our core rights and the responsibilities of the
Speaker 1: state to respect them. We live in an imperfect world.
Speaker 1: COVID is real, it kills people, it's scary, I get it.
Speaker 1: We also live in a world where the government is
Speaker 1: completely incapable of eliminating all those risks, and by pretending
Speaker 1: that it can do so, it is trampling on the
Speaker 1: very rights that it was formed to guarantee. The government
Speaker 1: can't protect you from a respiratory virus, that's a fiction.
Speaker 1: But it can prevent you from being able to go
Speaker 1: to church, it can prevent you from opening your business.
Speaker 1: It can shut you down, it can lock you up.
Speaker 1: Those are the real concerns. It's not going to save
Speaker 1: you from a virus. That's up to all of us individually,
Speaker 1: up to the luck of the draw your immune system,
Speaker 1: whatever mitigation measures you, yourself and your family want to take,
Speaker 1: that's what will be the determining factors for all that.
Speaker 1: But in the meantime, we're getting all the downside of
Speaker 1: the government coming after us, harassing us, and creating enormous
Speaker 1: stresses on the load bearing walls of our liberties. They
Speaker 1: just don't care. It doesn't matter that they can't prove
Speaker 1: the things they say they can't. It doesn't matter that
Speaker 1: there's no real hard science to support lockdowns. In fact,
Speaker 1: that data goes in the other direction. Politicians want to
Speaker 1: do this. They see a problem, they want to take action,
Speaker 1: and if you stand in the way, you're the problem.
Speaker 1: This is pernicious. We have to fight back against this
Speaker 1: reality with everything we can or else, they're going to
Speaker 1: drag this on deep into twenty twenty one and perhaps beyond.
Speaker 1: Time to take back our liberty. Friends, time to tell
Speaker 1: the government, the Libs, the left, enough is enough. I
Speaker 1: want to live my life and I want to be
Speaker 1: the ultimate arbiter of what risks with my own health.
Speaker 1: I'm willing to take the freedom of This is the
Speaker 1: buck Sex and Show podcast. You know, we could also
Speaker 1: make it financial and say, you know what, here's the
Speaker 1: fine for not wearing your mask, because every time you
Speaker 1: don't wear a mask, you're sending somebody to a hospital
Speaker 1: that has no room for them. So you can start
Speaker 1: building that and I'm sorry. You know, it's either going
Speaker 1: to be one thing or another. But we've got to
Speaker 1: get this under control or we're never going to get
Speaker 1: ourselves out of this hole. We are in a semi
Speaker 1: hole now, but we're digging out right now. Wear a
Speaker 1: mask or we'll find you, because if you don't wear
Speaker 1: a mask, you're sending someone to a hospital that can't
Speaker 1: take care of them. It does it matter to anybody
Speaker 1: that here's a person on TV Whoopi Goldberg big following.
Speaker 1: God knows why, but she does it does bother anybody
Speaker 1: that what you're saying here is completely ridiculous. No, the
Speaker 1: people that are going to get fined for not wearing
Speaker 1: a mask, out of one hundred of them are completely
Speaker 1: healthy and I've done nothing. They they're risk nothing to anyone.
Speaker 1: So you're gonna actually be finding a lot of people
Speaker 1: who are healthy and haven't created any risk to anybody.
Speaker 1: And also, even if somebody didn't wear a mask and
Speaker 1: they did infect somebody, would they have not infected the
Speaker 1: person that they're wearing a mask. I'd like someone to
Speaker 1: prove that. And then beyond that, what are the chances
Speaker 1: of somebody who gets infected it actually goes to hospital.
Speaker 1: It's actually quite quite low. But let's treat everybody who
Speaker 1: doesn't wear a mask like a monster the one time. Now, now,
Speaker 1: remember you've got a lot of the mask shamers have
Speaker 1: already been shown not wearing masks themselves. But isn't it
Speaker 1: a great tool for they for the hip The left
Speaker 1: is so hypocritical, they embrace so much hypocrisy, they're very
Speaker 1: comfortable with it. And this, if you're willing to be
Speaker 1: a hypocrite, mask shaming is a wonderful thing. You get
Speaker 1: to walk around presenting your self as a great hero
Speaker 1: of saving lives, and anyone you don't like, if you
Speaker 1: catch them out wearing a mask, you'd say, where's your mask?
Speaker 1: And then when you don't wear when you say, well,
Speaker 1: you know, no one's perfect, you know, but I'm out
Speaker 1: there advocating for other people to do it, so that
Speaker 1: makes up for it. That's what's going on. And also
Speaker 1: I would want to know that, so people who get
Speaker 1: fined for not wearing a mask, what happens if they
Speaker 1: refuse to pay the fine. You're gonna put it on on
Speaker 1: a bench Wear't're gonna arrest them, because that means you're
Speaker 1: gonna be arresting a healthy person for not wearing a
Speaker 1: constricting cloth interfering with their breathing around their face. Because
Speaker 1: a bunch of hysterical libs have convinced themselves and have
Speaker 1: unfortunately a lot of Democrat doctors along with them, that
Speaker 1: this is somehow going to stop the pandemic in its tracks,
Speaker 1: if only we would listen to them. It's not true.
Speaker 1: It's not that simple. There's a lot about this we
Speaker 1: don't know. And I just wish they would admit that.
Speaker 1: I wish they would admit we're we the public health experts.
Speaker 1: Remember when I'm talking about public health experts, we're talking
Speaker 1: about policy people, right, you want to talk scientists. The
Speaker 1: scientists are the people coming up with vaccines, Advisor and
Speaker 1: other places that are doing stuff that's incredible and that
Speaker 1: are actually gonna end up saving a lot alive. That's science.
Speaker 1: Doctor Fauci's saying, gonna wash your hands, you know, don't
Speaker 1: do the things that are dangerous because the other things
Speaker 1: will be dangerous too. However, you know that's that's just
Speaker 1: a guy who knows some science who's making directives for
Speaker 1: you to follow that may or may not help you.
Speaker 1: That's what that is. There's a difference. I think this
Speaker 1: gets very lost in all this. I was speaking out
Speaker 1: of Fouch. Speaking out of Fouch. We missed him. He
Speaker 1: hasn't been on the show in a while, doctor Fauci.
Speaker 1: You know, he's tired. It's not easy doing things with
Speaker 1: this administration. Trump, oh Trump. He does the tweets. He's
Speaker 1: tweeting at me. You know, he's like, hey, Fouch, why
Speaker 1: you're making my life so hard? Come on? But anyway,
Speaker 1: here here's the Fouch on how we probably shouldn't lockdown.
Speaker 1: Now play fourteen, doctor Fauci. Do you believe that we're
Speaker 1: headed for a national lockdown? You know, I don't know.
Speaker 1: We would like to stay away from that robin because
Speaker 1: there is no appetite for locking down on the American public.
Speaker 1: But I believe that we can do it without a lockdown.
Speaker 1: I really do. I Mean, sometimes when people talk about
Speaker 1: the measures that I'm suggesting we double down on, they
Speaker 1: equivocate that and say that, well, that makes that a lockdown.
Speaker 1: It isn't necessarily lockdown. You could still get businesses going,
Speaker 1: you could still have economic forward thinking while you're doing that.
Speaker 1: You don't necessarily have to shut everything down. Hopefully we
Speaker 1: won't have to do that. If we can do the
Speaker 1: public health measures, we wouldn't have to do that. The
Speaker 1: public health measures what so so again we're not doing enough.
Speaker 1: Notice how it keeps coming back to the same thing.
Speaker 1: It's on us. If their ideas don't work, it's because
Speaker 1: we haven't done them enough. It's not because the ideas
Speaker 1: are flawed. They never even allow for that possibility. They
Speaker 1: have the answer. We're just not doing it the right way.
Speaker 1: But also, look, look the way kind of dodges you
Speaker 1: know that there's no appetite for it, you know. But
Speaker 1: he knows where, he knows that he's gonna be in
Speaker 1: a place in a month. The mask schamers, the lockdowners,
Speaker 1: they're gonna be saying, you guys didn't do enough, We
Speaker 1: got to go into lockdowns now. So they're already in
Speaker 1: a lockdown. They're de mandatory thirty day stay at home
Speaker 1: order in Chicago. We're already there. Here's here's Biden spokesperson
Speaker 1: Simone Sanders on whether he will try to impose a
Speaker 1: national lockdown. Place sixteen is a national lockdown a possibility
Speaker 1: under President Biden? Well, Jim, let me tell you this.
Speaker 1: It is President Alex Biden's every intention and Vice President
Speaker 1: elect Kamala Harris's intention to shut down the virus and
Speaker 1: not the economy. And the way that we do that
Speaker 1: is by wearing a mask, social distancing, by doing everything
Speaker 1: that we can to mitigate the spread. You know, Jim,
Speaker 1: I have been watching the news on this network and others,
Speaker 1: and the map from coast to coast right now is
Speaker 1: read so there, you know, the virus isn't distinguishing between
Speaker 1: red states and blue states. It is affecting us all collectively.
Speaker 1: Every single state. So it's imperative, frankly, that we do
Speaker 1: everything we can, and we know that wearing a mask.
Speaker 1: I've got my mask right here, Jim, wearing a mask
Speaker 1: is one of the best things we can do to
Speaker 1: mitigate the spread of this virus, no question. I do
Speaker 1: want to clarify though, on a national lock dockdown, because,
Speaker 1: as you know, Michael Losterholm, who is going to advise
Speaker 1: who's going to be on the president Alex tax cast force,
Speaker 1: he's already been announced. He brought that up. Then others
Speaker 1: in the campaign said, no, that's not on the table,
Speaker 1: to be clear, is a national lockdown on the table
Speaker 1: for president? To be clear, Jim President a president elected Biden.
Speaker 1: It's his intention to shut down this virus, not the country.
Speaker 1: Go back to the talking point. Look at that. Go
Speaker 1: back to the meaningless, silly, irrelevant talking point, shut down
Speaker 1: the virus. Does anyone believe we're gonna shut down the virus?
Speaker 1: Does anyone really think? Only a moron can think that
Speaker 1: at this point we're gonna shut down the vir until
Speaker 1: we get a vaccine. It's gonna spread. I'm shutting down
Speaker 1: the virus. The economy is already partially shut down in
Speaker 1: some places, and it's gonna get worse. But they don't
Speaker 1: want to tell you the truth. That's a classic Democrat
Speaker 1: moment there. They don't want to tell you what's really
Speaker 1: going on here, which is that Yeah, Biden, Biden's gonna
Speaker 1: push for a national is a national mask mandate, national shutdown.
Speaker 1: Who's gonna enforce that national mask mandate too? I send
Speaker 1: FBI guys in, where's your mask? You're eating a cheeseburger,
Speaker 1: but your bites you're taking too long. Put your mask on.
Speaker 1: Oh man, it's amazing. I think so much of this
Speaker 1: is really driven by people who go through life thinking
Speaker 1: that the government, the state is their friend, is there
Speaker 1: to take care of them and creates purpose for all
Speaker 1: of us, when really the government is just is just
Speaker 1: there as an organizational system to try to protect basic
Speaker 1: rights and enforce contracts and let people live their lives.
Speaker 1: That's what a good government would do. It's not there
Speaker 1: to protect you from all the diseases and all the
Speaker 1: you know, all the creepy qualities that are out there
Speaker 1: in the air spreading freely all the time. Government can't
Speaker 1: do that. But people have a mistaken belief that if
Speaker 1: only we give them enough authority, the government enough authority.
Speaker 1: If only we do enough of what the government says
Speaker 1: will create It's really it comes from a kind of
Speaker 1: utopianism you have with a socialist ideology. If we just
Speaker 1: give the government more control over markets in the economy,
Speaker 1: everyone will have what they need and everyone will get
Speaker 1: along and the work collectively. That's a fantasy, right. If
Speaker 1: we just have enough mask mandates and enough government policies,
Speaker 1: we're going to this disease, a kind of epidemiological utopia
Speaker 1: that's crazy too, not going to happen, has never happened
Speaker 1: and won't happen. But they can't admit any of this,
Speaker 1: can they. No, you can't even have an adult conversation
Speaker 1: about it. Thanks for listening to the buses and show podcasts.

Speaker 1: if you have not a ready very much appreciate that
Speaker 1: and let's get right to it before we head off
Speaker 1: for the weekend, because producer Mark, everybody's working for the weekend.
Speaker 1: Of course, that well, what's the weekdays for if not
Speaker 1: for the weekend? You know that song writer? I think
Speaker 1: we've gone over that about seventeen times in the show.
Speaker 1: Just making sure, dude, I feel like it's my as
Speaker 1: your elder who experienced quite a bit more of the
Speaker 1: eighties and the nineties, as as at least somebody who
Speaker 1: can remember it. I just try to make sure that
Speaker 1: I bring you all the great cultural touchstones of that
Speaker 1: fantastic era in American culture. Well, I appreciate that I
Speaker 1: did not experience any of the eighties, by the way, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that would have been weird, right, that would have been
Speaker 1: like an out of body I don't even think I
Speaker 1: was thought of, Yeah in the eighties, not not quite
Speaker 1: there yet. But what for what for you is the
Speaker 1: period that you most associate with your youth? Like if
Speaker 1: I asked you, would it be the are you a
Speaker 1: late nine he's kid? Then yeah, I would say probably
Speaker 1: late nineties, early two thousands. A what a great time,
Speaker 1: what a great time in this country. Uh, that's that
Speaker 1: was the best. When we had cell phones, but not smartphones.
Speaker 1: When you you still could you know, get away from
Speaker 1: the office and they couldn't reach you. You know, there's
Speaker 1: that was a great time. Not everybody on their phones
Speaker 1: all the time. All right, Anyway, let's get into it.
Speaker 1: Josiah kicks us off here with the following I'm really
Speaker 1: getting sick of the double standard of the left. First
Speaker 1: they call a small Trump White House event a super spreader,
Speaker 1: then tens of thousands of them party on the street
Speaker 1: after Biden's bogus win. I see no other option for
Speaker 1: freedom lovers like us than a peacefully protest against the
Speaker 1: corruption of legacy media socialists such as AOC, Bernie, etc.
Speaker 1: Mask mandates and so on. Kudos for staying drong. This
Speaker 1: is staying strong in this chaotic, dangerous time. Shields high. Yeah, Josiah,
Speaker 1: you know they actually just had the governor of California,
Speaker 1: Gavin knew Some who is a really classic smug a
Speaker 1: smooth but smug lib who just last week San Francisco
Speaker 1: Chronicle reported on this went to a birthday party in
Speaker 1: a private home with more than twelve people present, So
Speaker 1: no ten person gatherings. But the governor can go to
Speaker 1: a more than ten person gathering for birthday because you know,
Speaker 1: the people in his life are important. The people in
Speaker 1: your life, if you live in California not important enough,
Speaker 1: according to the governor, are too dangerous to see them
Speaker 1: at least more than ten of them not allowed. Not allowed.
Speaker 1: And you know they're going to do what they called
Speaker 1: the Terrence enforcement, where they're going to find a few
Speaker 1: people and they're going to actually go after them for this.
Speaker 1: They're gonna make a problem of this. Get ready for it.
Speaker 1: It's gonna happen. Mark not to be confused with producer
Speaker 1: Mark hey Buckshields high heard a news story that said
Speaker 1: there are some stadiums or other places that are going
Speaker 1: to require proof of the vaccine or negative test. What
Speaker 1: do you think of that they're gonna lock us down?
Speaker 1: Do we need to keep fighting and praying? I love
Speaker 1: your show, producer, Mark is great. Thanks for you do.
Speaker 1: Thank you Mark, great name. And yeah, I've seen that too,
Speaker 1: and I do believe this is where we're heading. Where
Speaker 1: the vaccine. You know, as far as I'm concerned, vaccine
Speaker 1: is ninety percent effective, and you get it. There's no
Speaker 1: public health rationale to restrict you at all anymore. And
Speaker 1: so there will probably be a probably be a push
Speaker 1: to get some kind of proof of vaccination. They talked
Speaker 1: about this in the early days of the pandemic and
Speaker 1: then it faded away. But you know, if I get
Speaker 1: this vaccine it's ninety percent effective, and anyone tells me
Speaker 1: that I got to wear a mask or I can't
Speaker 1: do what I want to do anymore, I'm going to
Speaker 1: want to throw things at them, and I'm right to
Speaker 1: want to do that. Okay, that's crazy, that's crazy. Then
Speaker 1: now that's unreason Now that's beyond unreasonab and that's insane.
Speaker 1: But I think that there's still going to be this mentality.
Speaker 1: Oh no, even if you got the vaccine ten percent,
Speaker 1: we can't allow a ten percent chance you might still
Speaker 1: get it and still spread it to people. Oh you know. So,
Speaker 1: but there will be places that are now saying, you know,
Speaker 1: we have a workplace where everyone's been Look, they do
Speaker 1: this for schools for kids. You can't attend your kids
Speaker 1: in certain schools unless you have vaccinations. So I think
Speaker 1: they're gonna do this for in place, for workplaces. They're
Speaker 1: gonna say for they want people vaccinated in proof of vaccination.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I think that's gonna happen for concerts, maybe
Speaker 1: the same thing. I mean, one of my favorite things.
Speaker 1: When I favorite, I mean the dumbest is they'll do this.
Speaker 1: They'll do this spot check for a temperature. And even
Speaker 1: though a lot of people have COVID, they say, and
Speaker 1: never even run a temperature, but they're doing a spot
Speaker 1: check with a temperature anywhere in the off off chance
Speaker 1: that you have a fever, don't know it, and they
Speaker 1: catch it. How many people you think are going to
Speaker 1: the office with like one hundred, one hundred and two
Speaker 1: fever and like they're like, yeah, I feel fine. I
Speaker 1: don't have COVID friends. It's so dumb. It's so dumb,
Speaker 1: and they get mad at me for pointing out. They
Speaker 1: don't argue that it's not dumb. When I point this out.
Speaker 1: The libs that come and they loved all the blue
Speaker 1: checks come at me. All these people have died. Why
Speaker 1: don't you care? I care a lot. It's horrible. But
Speaker 1: that doesn't mean that things you're doing aren't dumb. I'm
Speaker 1: telling you they're dumb. Oh boy, oh boy, All right, Abby,
Speaker 1: next up your buck. I just want to say thank
Speaker 1: you for yesterday's radio show. The show is always great,
Speaker 1: but yesterday's was especially on point. I found your positive
Speaker 1: attitude to be very uplifting. Thank you for that. I
Speaker 1: forwarded it to several of my friends who have been
Speaker 1: downtrod since the election. Shield tie my friend Abby she'ld
Speaker 1: tiw do you thank you so much. I really appreciate
Speaker 1: you passing the buck to some friends. That's great. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we love that and it means a lot to us.
Speaker 1: And that's how the show continues to grow. So we're
Speaker 1: making moves here, we're doing We're doing good things for sure.
Speaker 1: And as for a yeah, I think it's we look
Speaker 1: we're happy warriors. We're not gonna wallow some days. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna come in here and I'm gonna be kind of
Speaker 1: bummed and you're gonna hear that in my voice and
Speaker 1: so funny. Those of you that have been listening to
Speaker 1: for a long time, you guys known me as well
Speaker 1: as my as my closest friends. You people, I'm always
Speaker 1: amazed at the message. I'll again, you know, Buck, were
Speaker 1: you little down yesterday? Even if I didn't say I
Speaker 1: was down? And yeah, you know I've got you know,
Speaker 1: I got problems too. I get, you know, problems in
Speaker 1: my relationships or problems with my health or and I
Speaker 1: try not to ever bring that stuff here to the
Speaker 1: show unnecessarily or excessively, because that's not what this is about, right.
Speaker 1: This is our chance to come together and talk about
Speaker 1: stuff that matters and have have really an escape from
Speaker 1: the mundane problems, or at least a place where we
Speaker 1: can share our frustrations about them as much as possible. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he just yells at me before the show. Yeah, No, producer,
Speaker 1: Mark takes all the incoming from me. Don't worry about that.
Speaker 1: He's very He's very good that way. This guy's like
Speaker 1: a rock, you know. He calms me down, prevents me
Speaker 1: from going into exploitive filled tirades on the show. Thanks Mark,
Speaker 1: We appreciate that, No problem, That's what I'm here for. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so you know, we we we make it all happen.
Speaker 1: But yeah, no, look, we gotta stay gotta stay positive.
Speaker 1: You know, attitude is a lot. It's not everything, but
Speaker 1: it's a lot. And if you can form the right
Speaker 1: attitude in these challenging times, it's just going to be
Speaker 1: better off for you and everybody everybody around you, and
Speaker 1: you know, finding finding the good and things. There's a
Speaker 1: difference between looking at everything with rose colored glasses and
Speaker 1: being delusional and looking at what is good and appreciating
Speaker 1: it and letting that influence you're thinking. So we try
Speaker 1: to go for the latter, Frank, Right, here's a question.
Speaker 1: Why do liberals get so angry when you ask them
Speaker 1: for evidence and proof of what they're saying. Well, Frank,
Speaker 1: that's because they have internalized meaning, it's deep seated in
Speaker 1: their mind, these beliefs, these liberal these liberal beliefs that
Speaker 1: they adopt, and the moment someone comes along who is
Speaker 1: an issue for those beliefs who challenges them, they feel
Speaker 1: very unsettled. They feel personally attacked because they've personalized these beliefs.
Speaker 1: They think it's almost a part of who they are.
Speaker 1: You know, do you see this particularly with woke individuals.
Speaker 1: Much of their their currency, their value as people, they think,
Speaker 1: is in spewing the slogans of wokeness and being the
Speaker 1: woke police, going around denouncing others who aren't as virtuous
Speaker 1: from that left wing perspective. And so when you say
Speaker 1: to them, we'll hold on a second, your positions aren't
Speaker 1: even virtuous. What you're doing as a waste of time,
Speaker 1: they feel defensive because they like that attachment to that
Speaker 1: feeling of honestly superiority. And also then there's that feeling
Speaker 1: of foolishness. No one likes to feel like they've been fooled.
Speaker 1: No one likes to feel like they've been swindled. Right,
Speaker 1: that's a very icky feeling. Oh my gosh, I got
Speaker 1: I got fooled by that person. So that's that's where
Speaker 1: that come that defensiveness comes from. And you have to
Speaker 1: remember a lot of leftists, a lot of liberals, have
Speaker 1: really never had to defend their ideas, and so it's
Speaker 1: a bit of a shock to them too. They heard
Speaker 1: some things so many times from people that they think
Speaker 1: are really smart and really wise that ultimately they're not
Speaker 1: able to process the challenge to those beliefs, the challenge
Speaker 1: to those ideas. It's like cannot compute, you know, it
Speaker 1: just the circuits all get messed up. So, Frank, that's
Speaker 1: why liberals get so angry when you ask them for
Speaker 1: evidence in proof of what they say, because it's not
Speaker 1: about what is, it's about what they It's about what
Speaker 1: they want to be. It's about the way that this
Speaker 1: reflects on them in their own mind. You know, I
Speaker 1: vote for Joe Biden, let's say, because I'm a good person,
Speaker 1: and that's what the good people do. And so then
Speaker 1: when you do it, you think, oh, you know, you
Speaker 1: take some value for yourself out of that, right, It
Speaker 1: builds your self esteem. And so when someone else comes
Speaker 1: along and says, you know, Joe Biden's kind of a
Speaker 1: clown and doesn't really stand for anything, and even Democrats
Speaker 1: knew that he was a loser until five minutes ago.
Speaker 1: Why do you think he's gonna do? What great ideas
Speaker 1: does he have for the country. They get very angry
Speaker 1: because it's kind of like you saying to them, well,
Speaker 1: it's kind of like you're telling them, you know, hey,
Speaker 1: I know you voted for Joe Biden, but that doesn't
Speaker 1: make you a good person, you know that, right. That's
Speaker 1: how they take it. Whereas when someone tells me they
Speaker 1: hate Trump and he's hitler, even though I voted for
Speaker 1: Trump and I'm obviously a big Trump supporter, I go, okay, well,
Speaker 1: let's think about this a little bit. Let's talk about this.
Speaker 1: Doesn't mean that, you know, one way or the other.
Speaker 1: I don't take it as a It's not like a
Speaker 1: referendum on me and my character. They may think so,
Speaker 1: but I don't think so. I'm like, all right, I
Speaker 1: voted from me. He's a politician, he's a leader, he
Speaker 1: represents certain ideas. It's not perfect. I think it's good.
Speaker 1: I support him, and you know, there's other stuff in life.
Speaker 1: It's really it's about balance and context. Got to maintain
Speaker 1: balance and context, and all your political conversations, you gotta
Speaker 1: just always remember at the other day, it's it's how
Speaker 1: you treat people. It's who you are, It's what you contribute,
Speaker 1: you know, it's what it's what's in your soul. That's
Speaker 1: what matters. All this other stuff. I mean, it's orton,
Speaker 1: but it all fades, friends, that all goes one way
Speaker 1: or the other. Madeline dear Buck, I have learned a
Speaker 1: lot from your show, and I appreciate the information and
Speaker 1: your team provide. As you know, Biden's new COVID advisor,
Speaker 1: doctor Austerholm, is mentioning locking down the country again. This
Speaker 1: scares me more than anything but the possible impending future.
Speaker 1: I didn't do well into the lockdowns financially and emotionally.
Speaker 1: All the places I normally interact with people, like work, church, jim, hobbies,
Speaker 1: were all closed. I couldn't even go to the doctor
Speaker 1: unless it was virtually If the governor of Texas had
Speaker 1: not lifted most of the lockdowns when he did, I
Speaker 1: don't think I would have survived it. My question is,
Speaker 1: if Biden issues an executive order locking down the country,
Speaker 1: can the states put limits on it? Do you think
Speaker 1: the country would be in a national lockdown like Europe?
Speaker 1: I really can't think see the people of the US
Speaker 1: being willing to do that. These lockdowns scare me more
Speaker 1: than the virus. I hope you and yours have a
Speaker 1: wonderful Thanksgiving well, Madeline. Thank you so much for listening
Speaker 1: and for your kind note. We appreciate it. And the
Speaker 1: lockdown being scary, I'll say this, yes they are, and
Speaker 1: I do believe unfortunately, far too many Americans will go
Speaker 1: along with them. So I can't I can't tell you
Speaker 1: that this is something that we don't have to be
Speaker 1: concerned about. I think we do have to be concerned
Speaker 1: about it, And whether the states will stick up to
Speaker 1: the federal government depends on the state. It'll probably go
Speaker 1: to court and litigation. The federal government doesn't really have
Speaker 1: the refs. Well, no, I shouldn't say that it depends. Remember,
Speaker 1: there are ways to coerce without just using police powers.
Speaker 1: So let's say the federal government is going to find
Speaker 1: businesses or the federal government's going to bring actions against
Speaker 1: businesses that don't well, if businesses require lockdowns or can't
Speaker 1: be an operation, you know, there's a domino effect there
Speaker 1: with more and more other people and other things throughout
Speaker 1: society will go along with it too, So you don't
Speaker 1: have to have, you know, a policeman knocking on every
Speaker 1: door to check on the masks to have the effect
Speaker 1: of a national lockdown from the top down. Whether state
Speaker 1: governments will allow that or not, very good question. I
Speaker 1: don't have a great I don't have a great answer
Speaker 1: for you. I just I wish i'd had a better one.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think some states will fight against it.
Speaker 1: At California, New York with a Biden administration, they'll do whatever,
Speaker 1: they'll do, whatever they say. And we're heading we're heading
Speaker 1: into a dark and difficult winter. The good news is
Speaker 1: that we do have better treatments for COVID than we
Speaker 1: did before, and there won't be as many deaths as
Speaker 1: their word or in the peak before, and we are
Speaker 1: getting closer to a vaccine. In fact, even the Fouch
Speaker 1: says a vaccine is going to happen. Play fifteen producer
Speaker 1: Mark So I see my future as doing the same thing.
Speaker 1: As we get our arms around this outbreak, we essentially
Speaker 1: put it to rest. But as David said, putting it
Speaker 1: to rest doesn't mean eradicating it. I doubt we're going
Speaker 1: to eradicate this. I think we need to plan that
Speaker 1: this is something we may need to maintain control over Chronically.
Speaker 1: It may be something that becomes endemic that we have
Speaker 1: to just be careful about. Certainly, it's not going to
Speaker 1: be pandemic for a lot longer because I believe the
Speaker 1: vaccines are going to turn that around. The other thing
Speaker 1: I do is that I, like David, I am a
Speaker 1: public health person. So you're going to hear us, both
Speaker 1: of us talking to the world, talking to the various countries,
Speaker 1: including the country that I'm responsible for the United States,
Speaker 1: on getting the message across based on science. So that's
Speaker 1: what I do. I guidelines, I give policy, I give
Speaker 1: messages that are science and evidence based. I've done that
Speaker 1: for decades and I think I'm going to be continuing
Speaker 1: to do that. Yeah, COVID forever folks, that's what he
Speaker 1: thinks might happen. You're in the freedom hide. This is
Speaker 1: the Buck Sexton Show podcast. More Roll called to kick
Speaker 1: us off here for the weekend. Mike, right, shield's eye.
Speaker 1: There are many of us in California. We are hiding
Speaker 1: in plainside. California is not one but two states. One
Speaker 1: is true and patriotic, the other is deep bluewood socialist. Mike.
Speaker 1: I know that is that is certainly the case. And
Speaker 1: I We've got fantastic audiences and places like Los Angeles
Speaker 1: and San Diego, great conservatives in those places. I've given
Speaker 1: multiple speeches in Orange County in the San Diego area
Speaker 1: to conservative groups who are just fantastic. So I know
Speaker 1: there's great conservatives out in California like me here in
Speaker 1: New York. You guys are out a number. Oh there's
Speaker 1: more from Mike's message here. Why do successful capitalists like
Speaker 1: all the Silicon Valley CEO suddenly become socialists after they
Speaker 1: make their multiple millions as stark raving capitalists. Mike, That's
Speaker 1: that's easy because of all the social credit and the
Speaker 1: social elevation that comes from being a socialist who doesn't
Speaker 1: have to worry about tack rates or bad policies because
Speaker 1: you're already so rich that you can have whatever you want,
Speaker 1: so you get all the benefits of capitalism with none
Speaker 1: of the downside of socialism if you're already rich, which
Speaker 1: is why you have Nancy Pelosi types, the limousine liberals,
Speaker 1: the chardonnay socialists. They're out there all over the place
Speaker 1: because it's really all about them. It's probably a good
Speaker 1: note to end things on. Folks, Please do check out
Speaker 1: bucksexton dot com posting there and also pass the buck.
Speaker 1: Get someone to listen to the Buck Sexton Show podcast
Speaker 1: this weekend in your life and until next time. Shield's
