00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 1: the realities of our biggest story of the day today,

20
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 1: which we're about to dive into. But also where are

21
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 1: we with COVID Some places bringing back mask someplaces saying

22
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 1: wait and see sixty percent increase in some form of

23
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 1: BA two here in New York City. It's wait, wait

24
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,040
Speaker 1: a second, are we done or not? Well, they're done

25
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,120
Speaker 1: at the border because title forty two is ending, but

26
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:14,399
Speaker 1: you're not done on a plane. You got a mask up.

27
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 1: What makes no sense, But that's how the libs are client.

28
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 1: I want to start today with the news about Elon

29
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 1: Musk and Twitter, and I get that about I don't know.

30
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 1: I'd say maybe five percent of our folks listening right

31
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 1: now are active Twitter users. And it's not that big.

32
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:36,959
Speaker 1: It is enormously important to politics, to media, and to

33
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 1: the national conversation as a platform. That's just the reality

34
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 1: of it. Donald Trump, I believe, use Twitter more effectively

35
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 1: than any politician. Donald Trump used Twitter to do an

36
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 1: end run on the mainstream media and actually take the

37
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 1: fight to the Democrat aligned corporate media in a way

38
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 1: that without that platform would not at the time have

39
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 1: been possible. It's one of the reasons they just decided

40
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 1: to just go for it, kick him off and make

41
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 1: it an all out censorship situation where they'll just they

42
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 1: shut down ideas, they shut down the Hunter Biden laptop.

43
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,880
Speaker 1: My friends, they may have cost Trump reelection that one

44
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 1: platform by because you say, well, I'm not on Twitter yet,

45
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 1: but people catch on on Twitter, and then they post

46
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 1: more to Facebook and they see the story and they're

47
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 1: aware of it, and other people in the media pick

48
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 1: up details and stories and threads from Twitter. It grows

49
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,920
Speaker 1: out from it. It's the public bulletin board. It is

50
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 1: the town hall Square or the town hall town square,

51
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,799
Speaker 1: same thing. You get what I'm saying, same idea. I

52
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,080
Speaker 1: haven't been into town Hall in a while, so Clay,

53
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,400
Speaker 1: there's a lot here. But I just, first of all,

54
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:46,400
Speaker 1: I wan't ever understand if nothing else, it's it's just

55
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 1: amazing to watch so many people who make a living

56
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 1: allegedly in journalism and media and supposedly care about free speech,

57
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:58,640
Speaker 1: who are in abject meltdown right now, literally shaking because

58
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,359
Speaker 1: Elon Musk may he's not going to suppress the left.

59
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 1: He's never said that. He just says free speech might

60
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: become into Twitter, and the Democrats panic. We all know this.

61
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 1: This could be Buck I woke up this morning immediately

62
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,839
Speaker 1: we're text threading. This could be. If Elon Musk were

63
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 1: able to buy Twitter, this could be the biggest moment

64
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,799
Speaker 1: for free speech. And I don't think I'm exaggerating this

65
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 1: in most of our lives in terms of what the

66
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 1: impact could be for having someone who was fundamentally committed

67
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 1: to the marketplace of ideas that you should be able

68
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 1: to have robust, uninhibited debate, that Twitter is not going

69
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 1: to censor you when you have an opinion that maybe

70
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 1: outside of the mainstream, that Twitter is not going to

71
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 1: block you when you say that there's a difference between

72
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 1: men and women and that you can't just choose your gender.

73
00:03:55,040 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 1: That we could have inside of Twitter, a real, true

74
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 1: town square, as you put it. And I understand people

75
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 1: out there who say, well, just go sign up for gab,

76
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 1: or go sign up for truth Social, or go sign

77
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 1: up for for a Rumble, and go sign up for

78
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: for Parlor and all these different competing companies. And I

79
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 1: give credit to everybody who is trying to compete. But

80
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: people are not going to end Moss abandoned Twitter and

81
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,039
Speaker 1: go to a new version of Twitter. It's just not

82
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:34,600
Speaker 1: going to happen. Twitter is the place where influence and

83
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 1: debate is magnified on an epic scale. Here's my so

84
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 1: for those of you out there don't know what's going On.

85
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 1: Elon's officially offered fifty four dollars and twenty cents a

86
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 1: share to buy the company. That news came down about

87
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:52,320
Speaker 1: six thirty am this morning, and Elon is obviously the

88
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:57,239
Speaker 1: richest man in the world right now. But Twitter stock

89
00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,799
Speaker 1: is now down a little bit on the day, which

90
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: to me, I had a lot of conversations with people, Buck,

91
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 1: they expect for the Twitter board, the people that I

92
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 1: talked to to reject this offer from Elon Musk, and

93
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,479
Speaker 1: then we will get into a real battle. Now, maybe

94
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 1: Twitter's got some sort of they call it all the time,

95
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,280
Speaker 1: a white night. Somebody who's going to ride in and

96
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,359
Speaker 1: pay more money than Elon Musk offered, get into a

97
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,799
Speaker 1: bidding war. Somebody else that they like more is offering

98
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 1: more substantial dollars. But this is a battle for the ages.

99
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,160
Speaker 1: I really don't think as an exaggeration to say that

100
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,480
Speaker 1: to your point earlier, Buck, I do believe that Twitter

101
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 1: and social media as a group turn the outcome of

102
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty election with what they allowed to be

103
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 1: shared and what they allowed to be discussed. I think

104
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 1: that social media led to the disastrous lockdown universe that

105
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 1: has existed for the last two years because they shouted

106
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 1: down people like you and me, your kids wearing masks,

107
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 1: your kids being out of school, rather than allow real

108
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,480
Speaker 1: debate to occur. Twitter consistently puts their finger on the

109
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,480
Speaker 1: scale and weighs it in the way that they decide

110
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 1: is appropriate. I think there's panic because of exactly what

111
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 1: you laid out going forward that the Democrat left has

112
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 1: gotten really used to being able to remember if they

113
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 1: just banned people say, well, you're on Twitter, Buck and

114
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 1: Clare on Twitter other. Yeah. But the point is when

115
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,840
Speaker 1: there's a contentious moment, when there's an election, when it

116
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 1: really matters, they throttle you, they suspend you, they shut

117
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,799
Speaker 1: you down, and that shifts the Overton window. That shifts

118
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:33,840
Speaker 1: the conversation nationally because of what is allowable online. Right,

119
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 1: they want people like you and me with substantial followings

120
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,839
Speaker 1: that tweet witty interesting stuff. They want is using their platform,

121
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 1: but they want it to be by their rules in

122
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 1: ways that's that they do not go after their sacred cows.

123
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 1: Now there's also the issue of if Elon were and

124
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 1: by their meeting today at one Eastern time, the board,

125
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 1: I would bet money and I don't think you and

126
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 1: I can't bet because we agree on this one, They're

127
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 1: absolutely going to reject it. That alone is fascinating because

128
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: for a company to reject and offer that would make

129
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 1: all the shareholders money and would be backed by the

130
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: literal richest men in the world shows you how important

131
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 1: this is to the left. So for all the people

132
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 1: listening who don't use Twitter and earned parts of the

133
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 1: country where everyone's like Twitter, who cares, let me tell

134
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 1: you this is essential to Biden and Kamala and Pelosi

135
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 1: and CNN. Although Clay and I maybe will Clay and

136
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 1: I might actually take up a collection today on the

137
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 1: street and buy CNN Plus for you know, a couple

138
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 1: of hundred bucks maybe. I mean, everyone says CNN plus

139
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 1: is going to be in the auction block here soon too. Anyway.

140
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 1: But the Clay that the part of this that I

141
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 1: think could be even more interesting, at least to me,

142
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 1: is for years, the whole the whole conversation around social media.

143
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 1: You know, you and I started doing this roughly at

144
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 1: the same time, let's say ten plus years ago, right,

145
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 1: being really active on Twitter. Twitter hasn't been around that long,

146
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 1: hasn't been a big thing that long. They used to say,

147
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 1: we don't suppress conservatives. We just have very basic rules

148
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 1: and we apply them equally. Then they said, you know,

149
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 1: we make mistakes sometimes we suppress conservatives, but we don't

150
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 1: mean to. It's a free speech platform. And then eventually

151
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 1: when Donald Trump came along, it was shut up conservative peasants,

152
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 1: we own this, buy or build your own Twitter. We're

153
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 1: maybe buying it. Build your own Twitter, build your own Internet.

154
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 1: We're kicking parlor off Amazon Web Services, We're kicking them

155
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 1: off the Internet, etc. Right, if we get access to

156
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 1: what I'll call the al goo, right, the algorithm, the

157
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 1: back end at Twitter, Clay, we would find that they

158
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 1: have been shifting the political conversation in favor of Democrats

159
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:45,000
Speaker 1: aggressively for the last ten years. They have been elevating

160
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 1: moron blue checks with blue hair nose rings and too

161
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,320
Speaker 1: many cats at the expense of people like you and

162
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:54,079
Speaker 1: me that actually have something to say. Now, I will

163
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:57,560
Speaker 1: say the marketplace speaks eventually, which is the great thing

164
00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 1: about capitalism. And what I do believe is you're right. Twitter.

165
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 1: They did the analysis of who spends the most time

166
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 1: on Twitter and who's most prominently featured, and Twitter is

167
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 1: twenty points more skewed towards the Democratic Party than the

168
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 1: United States. So it's like the most left wing Portland

169
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:22,320
Speaker 1: Democrat district that you can imagine. And I will say

170
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:26,320
Speaker 1: Democrats have become so enamored of Twitter that they think

171
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 1: it's the real world that ultimately I believe that's why

172
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:33,439
Speaker 1: their party has gotten destroyed. I think they're leaning into

173
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 1: Twitter so aggressively as, oh, this is where the real

174
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 1: world is. And that dichotomy between what the Twitter real

175
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:45,960
Speaker 1: world represents and what the real real world represents is

176
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 1: why Joe Biden and the Democrats in general are collapsing

177
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 1: and frankly, why Trump has had so much success. Now

178
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:55,200
Speaker 1: here's the challenge overtime, buck And this is what I

179
00:09:55,280 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 1: worry about if Facebook and Twitter and probably TikTok, although

180
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 1: I don't know enough about TikTok and Instagram and all

181
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 1: of these social media platforms all end up making the

182
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,559
Speaker 1: exact same decision at the exact same point in time.

183
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,320
Speaker 1: Which was what was so scary to me about Donald

184
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 1: Trump getting banned. I mean, they banned him from Pinterist.

185
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 1: I don't I don't know if Donald Trump is like

186
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,760
Speaker 1: trying to sell knitting gear, but I mean, when when

187
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,200
Speaker 1: when all the women who sit around and sell you know,

188
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 1: like their their latest knit caps are like, there's no

189
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,720
Speaker 1: way we can have a maga cap on Pinterest anymore.

190
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:32,320
Speaker 1: Let's ban Donald Trump. It is a collusive, corrosive environment.

191
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:36,200
Speaker 1: And what Musk would represent to me is a punchback

192
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 1: in the other direction for robust, uninhibited marketplace of ideas.

193
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 1: I think if we got access to the Twitter back

194
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 1: end via Elon Musk's takeover, which to be clear, they're

195
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 1: going to circle the wagon, the left, the Democrat Party.

196
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,720
Speaker 1: This is their digital waterloo, folks, This is they're all

197
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:58,240
Speaker 1: in battle. Because if this happens, not only going forward

198
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 1: where there'll be an actual digital marketplace of ideas for politics, culture,

199
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:05,440
Speaker 1: everything else, but we'll be able to see how much

200
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 1: they've essentially rigged the game in the past, including inkind

201
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:13,000
Speaker 1: what are effectively in kind donations at election time, what

202
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:17,560
Speaker 1: are effectively maneuvers behind the scenes at Twitter to elevate

203
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:21,839
Speaker 1: or destroy certain politicians and personalities. Obviously they ban Trump forever,

204
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:23,920
Speaker 1: we know they do this. Obviously they suppress the Hunter

205
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 1: Biden laptop play. I bet it's been much more than that.

206
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 1: And then we have to remember Facebook, Google, they have

207
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,840
Speaker 1: algorithms too. Does anyone think that if we see what's

208
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:36,680
Speaker 1: going on at Twitter, it's not going to be clear

209
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 1: it's going on at the other tech giants. I would

210
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,440
Speaker 1: also point out this, if they turned down what would

211
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:46,679
Speaker 1: represent a twenty some odd percent premium for the stock

212
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:50,080
Speaker 1: price right now versus what Elon Musk is offering. It's

213
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:53,199
Speaker 1: also pretty tangible evidence that Twitter is not being run

214
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:57,080
Speaker 1: as a capitalistic venture. That is, they are not trying

215
00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 1: to maximize return for their shareholders. And by the way,

216
00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 1: I'm one of the shareholders. I've owned Twitter stock for

217
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,760
Speaker 1: a long time. They're not trying to get as much

218
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,959
Speaker 1: money in our pocket. They are an ideologically driven center

219
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:13,440
Speaker 1: of thought, not a capitalistic driven center of thought. And

220
00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:16,360
Speaker 1: that's a substantial difference. Right It calls into question even

221
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 1: more the marketplace of ideas angle, because effectively, what they're

222
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 1: saying is Twitter is more valuable to the Democrat Party,

223
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 1: to left wing politicians then to allow it to be

224
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 1: purchased by a free speech And by the way, I

225
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 1: don't even think of Evan Musk as a conservative buck.

226
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 1: I just think of him as a businessman who believes

227
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:39,920
Speaker 1: that you have to experience all ideas in order to

228
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 1: reach the best possible outca the position of the right

229
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,040
Speaker 1: is not well. Now, let's now let's suppress all the

230
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,520
Speaker 1: all the less reason kick No, I want their idiot ideas,

231
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 1: you know, I want you to be able to backhand

232
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,800
Speaker 1: Keith Olberman Clay. I just don't want you getting shadow

233
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:55,959
Speaker 1: band when you when you smoke them online, you know

234
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:57,600
Speaker 1: what I mean. I don't want you getting in trouble

235
00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:00,440
Speaker 1: for it. And that would be the reality we're dealing

236
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,840
Speaker 1: with here. And I think the fact that Elon is

237
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,839
Speaker 1: he's not a dogmatic conservative at all. He's kind of

238
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 1: a free thinker. And all he's saying is, let's let's

239
00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 1: actually build a free speech platform. And the left is

240
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,720
Speaker 1: in melt at it's so instructive. The left is in meltdown.

241
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 1: And get ready for some takes from Washington Post and

242
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:21,200
Speaker 1: New York Times writers about billionaires control. See that without

243
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,199
Speaker 1: any irony. Yeah. And by the way, the other thing

244
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,760
Speaker 1: we should mention is just content neutral policies. It's amazing

245
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 1: how content neutral policies are that that sort of position

246
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 1: right that you can't even create. Just content neutral. We're

247
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:38,599
Speaker 1: not saying, hey, favor one side or the other, just

248
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:40,560
Speaker 1: treat everybody. Can we come back to this in one second, lay,

249
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 1: because I just saw this. I I don't know if

250
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 1: you'd already seen this breaking news from Charles Gasparino over

251
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:48,120
Speaker 1: Fox News. Your colleague there, Elon Musk, offers to buy

252
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:51,199
Speaker 1: the rest of Twitter. A legal source tells Fox Business

253
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 1: that the SEC and the DOJ have launched a joint

254
00:13:55,880 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 1: investigation into a myriad of ray sulatory issues at Tesla,

255
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 1: Oh Voices, Eggs. I mean, I don't even know this. Uni.

256
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 1: I said, they're gonna go with everything they've got, folks.

257
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:10,840
Speaker 1: They're gonna bring up throughout all the artillery they can.

258
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:12,960
Speaker 1: They're gonna cheat in every way they can. We'll come

259
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 1: back into the ways they're gonna try this in a second. Look.

260
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:17,679
Speaker 1: If you had to choose between two cell phone companies,

261
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 1: one that overcharge you for cell phone service and made

262
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 1: donations to left wing candidates and causes, or another cell

263
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 1: phone company that gives you the exact same quality of

264
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 1: service but at half the price, and that actually supports

265
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,440
Speaker 1: your values, which would it be. It's an easy answer, right,

266
00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 1: It's time to ditch Verizon at and T and T Mobile.

267
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:37,640
Speaker 1: Get your cell phone service from Pure Talk it has

268
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:39,920

282
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 1: Welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show. We wanted

283
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 1: to open up phone lines here for you a bit

284
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 1: and allow you to ask questions because I think Buck

285
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 1: was right when we started off the show he said

286
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 1: maybe five percent of our audience is super active on

287
00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:41,720
Speaker 1: Twitter or maybe even social media in general, because I

288
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:45,160
Speaker 1: think a lot of you rightly do not trust the

289
00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 1: social media companies to allow you to say what you

290
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:52,160
Speaker 1: actually think, but as a result, there may be not

291
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:56,800
Speaker 1: comprehension or not understanding about why we believe. This is

292
00:15:56,840 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 1: such a significant battle that Elon Musk has now initiated

293
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 1: against Twitter so to open up the phone lines, to

294
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 1: allow you to ask us questions, to react as you

295
00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 1: see fit eight hundred two eight two two eight two

296
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 1: eight hundred two A two two eight two and buck.

297
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,040
Speaker 1: You and I are in an incredibly fortunate spot. I

298
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 1: tell this to people all the time. I think you

299
00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 1: and I have two of the best jobs in America

300
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 1: because in an era when so many people feel like

301
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 1: they can't say what they think, you and I get

302
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:30,160
Speaker 1: to tell a large audience exactly what we think every

303
00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 1: day for three hours plus and not have to worry

304
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 1: about the consequences of what our opinions are or how

305
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 1: people react to them. No one has ever told me

306
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 1: in over a decade of doing radio what to say

307
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 1: or how to say. It's one of the reasons why

308
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,920
Speaker 1: I love this medium so much. There's a purity to it,

309
00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 1: and what we see with the social media platforms, of course,

310
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:53,760
Speaker 1: is that we're just we're just beginning to understand the

311
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 1: full scope of how the system was all rigged in

312
00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,360
Speaker 1: a way that they were gaming it to who help

313
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 1: the left? And I think part of the success of

314
00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:07,119
Speaker 1: all those efforts you see in things like the movement

315
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:10,879
Speaker 1: right now to shut down anybody who wants to affirm

316
00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:13,879
Speaker 1: basic biology. I mean, you know, this is a debate.

317
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:15,520
Speaker 1: We've been our discussion. We've been having a lot here

318
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:18,040
Speaker 1: on the show, and it's a huge debate nationally. You know,

319
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:19,639
Speaker 1: can a man become a woman? The answer is no.

320
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 1: The answer is no. They can say it as much

321
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:23,479
Speaker 1: as they want, they can argue with us. They the

322
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 1: answer is no. But because of the power that the

323
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:30,400
Speaker 1: left has in social media, both elevation and suppression. They

324
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:33,520
Speaker 1: elevate things they like, they suppress things they don't. You

325
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 1: have all these wokesters on the left who are going, yes,

326
00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:40,439
Speaker 1: you can, and the answer is still no. They're still wrong.

327
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:43,879
Speaker 1: That has not actually changed. Did you see the story

328
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:47,119
Speaker 1: I think it's out of New Jersey that two women

329
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 1: in all women's prisons have gotten pregnant by a trans Yeah,

330
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:56,119
Speaker 1: they are allowing men who identify as women to be

331
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:58,960
Speaker 1: which is one of the craziest things out there, to

332
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:02,720
Speaker 1: be housed in a women's prison, and now multiple women

333
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:06,679
Speaker 1: have gotten pregnant by men who identify as women but

334
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:09,199
Speaker 1: are still biologically as you can imagine men. And I

335
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 1: gotta say, one, it's crazy. Two if you were otherwise

336
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:18,160
Speaker 1: locked up in a mail prison and you could be like, hey,

337
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:21,639
Speaker 1: you know what, I identify as a woman, and the

338
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,040
Speaker 1: world is so broken that they would say, okay, we're

339
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,800
Speaker 1: gonna put you in a women's prison. The guys are

340
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:30,399
Speaker 1: playing a rigged game, right Suddenly you're you're fishing in

341
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,639
Speaker 1: a stock pond, when otherwise you're gonna be stuck with

342
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 1: a bunch of dudes trying to meet the crap out

343
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 1: of you in a mail prison. I used to use this,

344
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:39,720
Speaker 1: slopes are slippery, my friends. Anytime someone says it's a

345
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,520
Speaker 1: slippery slope fallacy, slippery slope is not a fallacy, it's

346
00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:45,639
Speaker 1: a reality. Years ago, I was making the argument on

347
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:47,719
Speaker 1: my show Clay about exactly this. I said, just give

348
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:51,280
Speaker 1: it time. They're gonna have biological males in women's prison.

349
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:53,600
Speaker 1: Just give it time. They're gonna have biological males in

350
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,639
Speaker 1: women's sports. And now here we are, and if you

351
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:58,280
Speaker 1: say hold on, it feels like we didn't even have

352
00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:02,120
Speaker 1: a conversation about this, they shout you down as a bigot.

353
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:06,400
Speaker 1: This is only possible, though, the real wokeism is only

354
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,679
Speaker 1: possible because of their control of social media. That's what

355
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:11,760
Speaker 1: I think is important people who know and on the

356
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 1: if you brought this up on COVID lockdowns before, you

357
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:18,800
Speaker 1: would be suppressed. For the election issue. People always think of,

358
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,720
Speaker 1: oh what happened one hundred Biden laptop and then election

359
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:27,400
Speaker 1: fraud allegations. After the twenty twenty election, the initial censorship

360
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:31,000
Speaker 1: wave that was out in the open was about COVID.

361
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:33,600
Speaker 1: All of a sudden, you weren't allowed you it was

362
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:37,399
Speaker 1: a violation of terms of service in June and July

363
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:40,240
Speaker 1: and August of twenty twenty to say, hey, I don't

364
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,320
Speaker 1: think this mass mandate thing works, or hey I don't

365
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 1: think we should lock down certain businesses and keep others open.

366
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:48,639
Speaker 1: I mean, the whole notion of essential worker was so arbitrary.

367
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 1: You're an essential worker if you're a podcaster in the

368
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:53,919
Speaker 1: state of California. Get you know. I love what we

369
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,199
Speaker 1: do too, play right, But I mean we're not We're not,

370
00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:58,919
Speaker 1: you know, putting electric paddles on someone's chest to get

371
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:02,359
Speaker 1: their heart beating. Again, it's crazy what was able to happen,

372
00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:05,160
Speaker 1: and it was because they shut down some ideas, they

373
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 1: elevated others. And this is how you get to this

374
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 1: moment of honestly indefensible stupidity from the left. I think

375
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 1: that pushes a lot of their panic. They have indefensibly

376
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 1: stupid positions that they've convinced themselves of, Clay, and they're

377
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:22,479
Speaker 1: kind of boxed into a corner now because they've had

378
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 1: so much reinforcement on social media without people being able

379
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,840
Speaker 1: to say, you know, you're a moron. Right, Speaking of which,

380
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:33,360
Speaker 1: here is Jensaki telling everybody that the mask mandate extension

381
00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:39,880
Speaker 1: we talked about yesterday, Clay, it's because of data. Ah,

382
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,159
Speaker 1: you help us understands some of the science behind the

383
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 1: Why two weeks? Sure? What difference can be made in

384
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:47,959
Speaker 1: such a short contact. Since early April, there's been an

385
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,439
Speaker 1: increases in the seven day moving average of the cases

386
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 1: in the United States, So what they're trying to do

387
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,240
Speaker 1: is give a little bit more time to assess its

388
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:58,360
Speaker 1: potential impact. The rise of the cases have on severe disease,

389
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,880
Speaker 1: including hospitalizations, deaths, and the healthcare system capacity, and their

390
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:06,879
Speaker 1: assessment from a medical standpoint the data data gathering standpoint

391
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,520
Speaker 1: is that two weeks would give them some additional time

392
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 1: to do that. They just want to yank on America's

393
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 1: choke collar a little bit, more like we're a knine

394
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:19,640
Speaker 1: getting into the petunias. That's really specific. I'm just saying,

395
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:25,200
Speaker 1: are the petunias blooming yet? I wonder, and I don't

396
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,360
Speaker 1: know if it got asked. How could first of all,

397
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:29,879
Speaker 1: credit for actually asking that question, because there is no

398
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:32,919
Speaker 1: good defense, But how could you not ask the question?

399
00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:37,040
Speaker 1: Explain to me how the CDC can say we're not

400
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:40,119
Speaker 1: in a COVID crisis at the border, therefore Title forty

401
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 1: two doesn't exist anymore, But we are still in a

402
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:45,680
Speaker 1: COVID crisis on airplanes. Therefore you have to wear a mask.

403
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:50,239
Speaker 1: Shouldn't you favor citizens over non citizens in terms of

404
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:53,920
Speaker 1: analyzing COVID emergencies. That's a good question, right, That's something

405
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 1: that should be asked. I would love to hear the

406
00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:58,800
Speaker 1: distinction between why the border is wide open now and

407
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:01,640
Speaker 1: COVID's not a risky But you and I and anybody

408
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:04,120
Speaker 1: else out there can't get on an airplane and just

409
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 1: fly without wearing a mask. In effectively, Clay title forty

410
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:12,320
Speaker 1: two is a CDC authority. Now, it's not true to

411
00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 1: say it's the CDC decision. If the executive branch. If

412
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:17,280
Speaker 1: if the White House put down a directive saying we're

413
00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:19,679
Speaker 1: ending it, it's ended right there. The CDC is not

414
00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:22,600
Speaker 1: an independent of the executive branch entity. That's not how

415
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:28,439
Speaker 1: it works. That said, though, the FAA is extending because

416
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:31,399
Speaker 1: of CDC guidance a mask mandate on planes because they

417
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:33,919
Speaker 1: say it's too scary. It's yeah, so how can you

418
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 1: have one and not the other. It's not we're either

419
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 1: safe or we're not safe. It's either not a problem

420
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 1: or it is a problem. But they want to have

421
00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:43,760
Speaker 1: it both ways, as they always do, which is why

422
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 1: they want to control social media. And by the way,

423
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,080
Speaker 1: that's why I'm not saying that I think the border

424
00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 1: should be wide open. Just the dichotomy there between saying

425
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,200
Speaker 1: it's safe at the southern border, it's not safe for

426
00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:57,560
Speaker 1: you to be on airplanes. Meanwhile, we know, based on

427
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:01,720
Speaker 1: people who are pretty well plugged in, every major airline

428
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:05,960
Speaker 1: CEO has requested that the mask banday be taken away.

429
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:09,119
Speaker 1: We had a caller yesterday. Airplane pilots have sued flight

430
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 1: attendants have sued. Huge numbers of people out there who

431
00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:15,960
Speaker 1: make their living on airplanes or managing airplane companies are

432
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:19,159
Speaker 1: all saying this is nonsensical. There's no basis to support

433
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 1: it any longer. It is. Actually, I would argue it

434
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,919
Speaker 1: is a safety risk for people to be forced masked

435
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 1: on planes, because we all know why there's been a

436
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:33,040
Speaker 1: huge increase in violent incidents on planes. It's because of

437
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:38,399
Speaker 1: the dumbass mask policies which make everyone agitated. And you know,

438
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,960
Speaker 1: unless you're an anxious weirdos, lookin scart of covide, even

439
00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,320
Speaker 1: though the plane's actually a safe place to be, it's

440
00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 1: because of people getting agitated the whole the whole airport experience.

441
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:51,520
Speaker 1: You got to wear a mask in the airport to

442
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:54,600
Speaker 1: security the whole thing. You feel like, you know, cattle

443
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:57,080
Speaker 1: being herded into a pen the whole time, and you

444
00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:58,680
Speaker 1: have to wear a mask for note, for no damn

445
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:01,280
Speaker 1: good reason. That's why people flip out and there have

446
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:04,440
Speaker 1: been punches thrown and issues. It is a safety risk

447
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 1: to force people to mask on planes. That's what the

448
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 1: data supports. The data supports that. The data also supports

449
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:13,119
Speaker 1: that there are overwhelming amount of delays which are also

450
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 1: increasing the overall stress level and anger. And I do

451
00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 1: think there's just a dull Remember Ghostbusters two buck when

452
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:24,240
Speaker 1: the pink ouze is underneath the city and everybody's just

453
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,840
Speaker 1: angry because when you came in contact, you remember that

454
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:32,520
Speaker 1: Ghostbusters we got, we got, we got a pink ooze issue.

455
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:36,480
Speaker 1: I think in the entire country where people are just

456
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:40,640
Speaker 1: angry over things that make no sense that are being foisted, well,

457
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 1: the pink ouze is flowing right now on Twitter because

458
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 1: we should be angry. I just saw this again. Hat

459
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 1: tip Charles Gasparino over at Fox News. Twitter is in

460
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 1: the red, as traders believe Elon Musk's regulatory woes, which

461
00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:02,760
Speaker 1: were just reported before, will give Twitter the board the

462
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,280
Speaker 1: room to reject his takeover bid. Think about how the

463
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 1: system the apparatus works. Friends, Elon is going to buy it.

464
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:13,240
Speaker 1: The Libs, the left, the Democrats are in a panic.

465
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:20,040
Speaker 1: So the bidendj launches a federal investigation of Elon's other

466
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:23,840
Speaker 1: company to give the Twitter board an excuse to turn

467
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:26,840
Speaker 1: down what's an obviously smart bid for them to take.

468
00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:33,280
Speaker 1: They play so dirty, they're appalling. And by the way,

469
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:37,640
Speaker 1: that same party is in power and They know that

470
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:41,919
Speaker 1: Twitter will therefore help them to remain in power using

471
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:46,680
Speaker 1: the rig social media algorithms that overwhelmingly favor the Democrat Party.

472
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 1: It's a dirty rig game. It's why Elon needs to

473
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,960
Speaker 1: win this battle. But it's going to be an ugly one.

474
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 1: In the meantime. For most of us, the single largest

475
00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,400
Speaker 1: purchase we ever makes a home makes sense. Right mortgage

476
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 1: broker to work with is key as crucial, and for

477
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 1: me that's been American financing. Look, they will hook you

478
00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 1: up right now with the best possible rate you can find.

479
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:12,840
Speaker 1: Now you may be thinking, well, aren't mortgage rates starting

480
00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 1: to rise? Yes, they are, but you can still lock

481
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 1: in an historically low rate plus and this is significant.

482
00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:23,440
Speaker 1: You may well have a ton of equity in your

483
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 1: home right now. You ever go on Zillo, look at

484
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 1: the value of your home, your condo, wherever you're living

485
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 1: right now most of the country, those values have been

486
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:34,120
Speaker 1: going up quite a bit. Maybe you can take advantage

487
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,840
Speaker 1: of that incredible line of home equity you have and

488
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:40,720

Speaker 1: situation infinitely better. You could pay off the credit card debt,

490
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:46,639
Speaker 1: you could skip a couple of mortgage payments as a

491
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,240
Speaker 1: part of a refi. You can get hooked up right

500
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:18,880

505
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:39,400
Speaker 1: Welcome back into the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show

506
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 1: as promised with us right now, Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, Senator,

507
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 1: good to have you back. Well, guys, hope you're doing well.

508
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:54,200
Speaker 1: So you may have seen Senator because it did get

509
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 1: a fair fair bit of attention yesterday. Joe Biden currently

510
00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:02,680
Speaker 1: has a thirty three percent approval rating according to the

511
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 1: latest Quinnipiac poll, and then on top of that, he

512
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:11,680
Speaker 1: actually has a twenty six percent approval rating among Hispanics,

513
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:15,000
Speaker 1: which got a lot of attention. We know that things

514
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:18,000
Speaker 1: are going badly for the Biden regime, but is it

515
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 1: just gonna keep getting worse or you think that they

516
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 1: have they hit the basement? They are they finally down

517
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,919
Speaker 1: at the bottom. Ohan, My question is, how can they

518
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:31,200
Speaker 1: be so high? Do you take a look at almost

519
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:34,840
Speaker 1: every policy, No, every policy that he hasn't acted, whether

520
00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,600
Speaker 1: it's canceling the Keystone XL pipeline, you know, which was

521
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:41,080
Speaker 1: his shot across the bottle, announcing his war on folesil fuel,

522
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:44,480
Speaker 1: which drove up to prices now in gasoline, but also

523
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,760
Speaker 1: energy which is important to every product. The open border,

524
00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:50,160
Speaker 1: which is going to get a lot worse when they

525
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:55,000
Speaker 1: cancel cable forty two out of control spending, sparking forty

526
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 1: year high inflation. You see the producer price in decks

527
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 1: up over eleven percent now, the embarrassing and dangerous surrendering Afghanistan,

528
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 1: which tempted tyrants like like Vladimir Putnam, you know, not

529
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:11,880
Speaker 1: rushing the types of weaponry that Ukraine needs to defend

530
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:15,600
Speaker 1: itself and win the war. Dragon's feet on that? How

531
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 1: could it? How could anybody approve of this? Senator? Appreciate

532
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:21,720
Speaker 1: you coming on the show with us. What do you

533
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 1: think about we started off the show, We've been talking

534
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 1: about it a lot, the idea of Elon Musk buying

535
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:32,160
Speaker 1: Twitter and also simultaneously what seems to clearly be occurring,

536
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:35,760
Speaker 1: which is the forces that would not allow Twitter to

537
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:39,760
Speaker 1: be an open marketplace of ideas becoming a raid against him.

538
00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 1: How do you see this playing out? What are your thoughts? Yeah,

539
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:46,120
Speaker 1: I was listening to your show earlier when that announcement

540
00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 1: came that the SEC and the part of its justice

541
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:54,720
Speaker 1: were opening up investigations. I mean, brazen isn't the right word.

542
00:29:56,240 --> 00:30:00,480
Speaker 1: I guess it's sadly predictable that they would plit sizes

543
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 1: to such a great extent. But no, let's face a

544
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:07,560
Speaker 1: tree speeches under AsSalt and is under assault by the

545
00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:11,280
Speaker 1: corrupt and complicit media that put Joe Biden in office.

546
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,959
Speaker 1: Let's say he can't paint from his basement. They suppressed,

547
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 1: they censored, you know, Senator Grassley, is my report on

548
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:23,320
Speaker 1: hand biding the laptop Tony Bobliski's testimony, all that was censored.

549
00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:27,960
Speaker 1: They changed history. They're all up in arms about Trump

550
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:31,360
Speaker 1: collusion with Russia, that hoax because the threat it might

551
00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 1: represent to be able to blackmail the United States president.

552
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:37,479
Speaker 1: And here you had clear, convincing evidence of a vast

553
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 1: web of financial entanglements of a future president they weren't

554
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,640
Speaker 1: even concerned about. They're not concerned about it now, or

555
00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:47,400
Speaker 1: they're just doing a CYA exercise, a modified limited hangout,

556
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 1: just providing enough truth. So you consider the impact the

557
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:56,160
Speaker 1: interference that the media and certain elements in our federal

558
00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 1: law enforcement intelligence agencies, how they interfered in our election.

559
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 1: What Russia hope to achieve pales in comparison to the

560
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:08,160
Speaker 1: interference that those corrupt individuals had on our election and

561
00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:13,480
Speaker 1: changed history for the worst. Speaking to Senator Ron Johnson

562
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 1: of Wisconsin, Senator, the end of Title forty two authority

563
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:21,600
Speaker 1: from the CDC is going to be upon us in

564
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:24,560
Speaker 1: just a matter of weeks. Here there's already reporting of

565
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 1: over one hundred thousand would be illegal migrants, largely from

566
00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:33,520
Speaker 1: Central America and South America, who are making their way

567
00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:37,680
Speaker 1: in caravans to the US Mexico border probably going to

568
00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 1: arrive right around the time the title forty two goes

569
00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:43,920
Speaker 1: away as a means of border, as a tool for

570
00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 1: border patrol to at least turn some people back who

571
00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:50,840
Speaker 1: enter illegally. What do you think the Biden administration plan

572
00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:53,760
Speaker 1: is here? Because Clay and I keep pointing out in

573
00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:56,560
Speaker 1: an election year or not that far away from the fall,

574
00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:58,480
Speaker 1: and also this is likely to carry on through the

575
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 1: summer and perhaps into the fall. Seems like this is

576
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 1: kind of disastrous. But what are we missing or what

577
00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:09,120
Speaker 1: needs to happen. It's the plan that every Democrat presidential

578
00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:13,760
Speaker 1: candidate announced during the primary. Complete open borders. I mean,

579
00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:15,440
Speaker 1: when you say you're not going to deport anybody, you're

580
00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:18,960
Speaker 1: going to offer illegal immigrants free healthcare to throw open

581
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,680
Speaker 1: the borders. And of course Biden dismantled all the successful

582
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 1: programs that pretty well stopped the flow of uncompanied children,

583
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:28,040
Speaker 1: families exploiting our asylum laws, stopped building the walts, cost

584
00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 1: us more not to build it than to actually build it.

585
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 1: These guys want open borders. I can't explain it. I

586
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,200
Speaker 1: think I understand what they want to do, but it

587
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:39,400
Speaker 1: makes no sense. But now you end Title forty two.

588
00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 1: Last year, it was about a million of quarter people

589
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:45,400
Speaker 1: that got in either encountered and then dispersed or got

590
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 1: in as a known got away. Over a million people

591
00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 1: were turned away or sent back under Title four to two.

592
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,920
Speaker 1: But there are tens of millions of people that want

593
00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:57,440
Speaker 1: to come into this country and when they realize that

594
00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:01,800
Speaker 1: there's no constraints now whatsoever, there's no consequence. It's complete

595
00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:04,520
Speaker 1: open border. Who knows what the flood is going to

596
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:06,920
Speaker 1: be coming up the next few months, in next few

597
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,840
Speaker 1: years under divine administration. You'll listening to Senator Ron Johnson

598
00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 1: of Wisconsin, and I know a lot of you are

599
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:15,840
Speaker 1: listening to us in the state of Wisconsin, including Milwaukee

600
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 1: or were the most listened. To show you guys got

601
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:21,360
Speaker 1: to get out and make sure you're supporting Senator Ron

602
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:26,520
Speaker 1: Johnson in this election in November. And I'm fully endorsing Senator,

603
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,400
Speaker 1: But I just want everybody in Wisconsin, just based on

604
00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:31,520
Speaker 1: the three answers that you've given us so far, to

605
00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:33,480
Speaker 1: understand how important it is to have you there in

606
00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 1: the Senate as we roll into twenty twenty three. But

607
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:38,040
Speaker 1: I want to ask you this too. You're talking about

608
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:40,920
Speaker 1: the border Title forty two, I'm sure that if it

609
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,520
Speaker 1: fades fascinating to you as it is to us. They

610
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 1: managed to open the border saying that COVID is no

611
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:50,080
Speaker 1: longer an issue, while simultaneously saying we need fifteen more

612
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:53,760
Speaker 1: days of people wearing masks on airplanes and in airports

613
00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 1: on trains. It is such a duplicitous lie. How infuriating

614
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:02,920
Speaker 1: is that to you? To see the divergence of treatment

615
00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:06,880
Speaker 1: based on the southern border and everybody on airplanes, Well,

616
00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 1: it's totally infuriating and completely frustrating. And you know, and

617
00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:15,600
Speaker 1: about half America is equally as infuriated and equally frustrated.

618
00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:18,400
Speaker 1: But the other half is still listening to mainstream media,

619
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:22,600
Speaker 1: the corrupt, complicit advocates for the Democrat Party, the far left.

620
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:25,040
Speaker 1: And that's we're up again. So just real quick, Ron

621
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:28,080
Speaker 1: Johnson for Senate dot Com. That's how you can help

622
00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:30,120
Speaker 1: me financially because I don't have an opponent right now

623
00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:33,840
Speaker 1: the Democrat Party. What I have is the media completely

624
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,359
Speaker 1: opposed to me. They want out as well. So that's

625
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:39,600
Speaker 1: that's what we're all up against. A complicit media, a

626
00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:44,440
Speaker 1: deep state, and again policies that are just disruptive for

627
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:47,120
Speaker 1: America that are waking us. We've got to wake up.

628
00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:49,759
Speaker 1: It's not just about financial support. It's getting out and

629
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,839
Speaker 1: talking to your friends, your family, neighbors, getting them out

630
00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:57,000
Speaker 1: to the polls and voting in November. What are you seeing,

631
00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:59,840
Speaker 1: by the way, on the ground in Wisconsin, are you

632
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:02,919
Speaker 1: feeling that. I know it's April and we're still six

633
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:06,240
Speaker 1: or seven months away, but Wisconsin is such an important

634
00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:08,840
Speaker 1: toss up state and your race is such an important

635
00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:11,359
Speaker 1: part of that. What are you seeing and feeling on

636
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:15,680
Speaker 1: the ground there On our side, I am seeing far

637
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:19,480
Speaker 1: greater concern than I experienced in two thousand and ten

638
00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:21,399
Speaker 1: during the Tea Party movement. I mean, people are coming

639
00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:23,400
Speaker 1: up to me with tears in their eyes, tears streaming

640
00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:26,360
Speaker 1: down their cheeks, just saying we have to save this country.

641
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:29,840
Speaker 1: So on our side, there is just deep, deep concern.

642
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:33,040
Speaker 1: It's legitimate concern. You know, the other side, they're still

643
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:37,080
Speaker 1: being bamboozled. I mean, Wisconsin is a split state, and

644
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:39,359
Speaker 1: you know, the opinion is hard on both sides, so

645
00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 1: you know, unfortunately, you know, we're fighting over a very

646
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:46,840
Speaker 1: small slice of the electorate that is persuadable. So we

647
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 1: gotta get out there. We got to persuade him, and

648
00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:51,040
Speaker 1: the best people to persuade other folks are people that

649
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:53,319
Speaker 1: know each other. And so that's right. No nobody can

650
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:55,680
Speaker 1: sit on the sidelines here. You have to start engaging

651
00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:59,399
Speaker 1: in a conversation with every friend, every family member, every

652
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 1: neighbor and tell them what's at stake. Freedom, Freedom is

653
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:05,359
Speaker 1: at stake. That's what we're fighting for. That's what this

654
00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:09,040
Speaker 1: is all about. I can't think of anything more important.

655
00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:11,319
Speaker 1: Let's face it, over a million Americans die defending our

656
00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:13,920
Speaker 1: free In the least those of us who recognize what's

657
00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:16,200
Speaker 1: having this country can do is get out there and

658
00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:19,600
Speaker 1: do everything we can to win in November, Senator Ron

659
00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:22,879
Speaker 1: Johnson of Wisconsin, Senator, great to have you. We'll talk soon.

660
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,799
Speaker 1: Stay well, look, you really don't want to be a

661
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:31,600
Speaker 1: victim folks of online identity theft. The hours, the days

662
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:35,480
Speaker 1: of untangling all the details and figuring out just how

663
00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:37,799
Speaker 1: deep the damage goes. It's a mess. I've had to

664
00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:39,880
Speaker 1: go through this, let me tell you, it's a nightmare.

665
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:44,520

688

Speaker 1: well as Alex Berenson Gitch popcorn for both, and I

689
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:08,040
Speaker 1: wanted to mention this Buck as we continue to deliver

690
00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 1: body blows on hypocrisy, which is a lot of what

691
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 1: I think we do on a day to day basis.

692
00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:16,960
Speaker 1: You could agree or disagree on principle, but hypocrisy is

693
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:20,200
Speaker 1: what really I think ultimately ends up moving people who

694
00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 1: are in the persuadable camp. And you just heard from

695
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:25,160
Speaker 1: by the way, Senator Ron Johnson talking about what a

696
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:28,319
Speaker 1: battle it's going to be in the state of Wisconsin

697
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:32,160
Speaker 1: because they are relatively few persuadable voters. And I think

698
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:37,040
Speaker 1: that's going to be true in Wisconsin, Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania,

699
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:40,160
Speaker 1: all the big battles battleground states in twenty twenty two

700
00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:42,920
Speaker 1: and twenty twenty four. But we played the audio Buck

701
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:47,680
Speaker 1: of Amy Schumer and Company, Wanda Sykes, I think, Regina

702
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:50,600
Speaker 1: Hill I believe was her name, the host of the

703
00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:53,719
Speaker 1: of the oscars, and remember Buck. They came out and

704
00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:57,080
Speaker 1: they said we're going to say gay gay gay gay,

705
00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:59,560
Speaker 1: and if you live in Florida, deal with it. And

706
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 1: all the Hollywood celebrities laughed, and they obviously were miss

707
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:08,000
Speaker 1: attributing what the language in the parental rights bill in

708
00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:11,200
Speaker 1: Florida actually says in the so called don't say Gay bill.

709
00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:14,399
Speaker 1: But to point out how much of hypocrites they are, Buck,

710
00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:17,240
Speaker 1: there's a new Harry Potter movie coming out I'm probably

711
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:19,480
Speaker 1: gonna take my kids to go see at this weekend.

712
00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:23,279
Speaker 1: It's the story basically of Albus Dumbledore. For those of

713
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,440
Speaker 1: you out there, parents young enough to have read it

714
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:28,080
Speaker 1: yourself before you had kids, grandparents, whatever you may be.

715
00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:32,920
Speaker 1: And there are elements of Albus Dumbledore. I don't know

716
00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:35,680
Speaker 1: why it was important, but JK. Rowling said he's gay,

717
00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:40,279
Speaker 1: and so there are elements of him being gay somewhat

718
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:43,399
Speaker 1: in that movie. It's PG. Thirteen. It's for older kids, right,

719
00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:47,160
Speaker 1: China is going to show that movie, Buck. They have

720
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:53,719
Speaker 1: struck all reference to gay out of that movie. Not

721
00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:59,839
Speaker 1: one single Hollywood star has pointed out that China can

722
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:06,360
Speaker 1: literally say to Hollywood, don't say gay, and every single

723
00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:12,160
Speaker 1: Hollywood studio, this one is MGM in particular, immediately says yes, sir,

724
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:16,160
Speaker 1: as you wish Sir gets on their hands and knees

725
00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:20,520
Speaker 1: and bows to the Chinese dictators. But when they make

726
00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:24,000
Speaker 1: up an allegation about Florida, they all flout, they all

727
00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:28,080
Speaker 1: speak big, but they won't say a word to China

728
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:32,200
Speaker 1: when they actually tell Hollywood, don't say gay. They just

729
00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:36,040
Speaker 1: take it. And of course there's a huge opportunity here

730
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:38,879
Speaker 1: for them if they wanted to take it right, if

731
00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:45,960
Speaker 1: this were really about standing with the LGBTQ plus community,

732
00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:48,640
Speaker 1: I think I got it right. If they wanted to

733
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:52,760
Speaker 1: take a real stand, they would say, we could release

734
00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 1: this film or release this show in China with the

735
00:40:56,040 --> 00:41:02,160
Speaker 1: following constraints. But we refuse. We refuse because this is

736
00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:06,160
Speaker 1: about human rights and human dignity and the equality and

737
00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:11,560
Speaker 1: the the you know, the goodness of our our LGBTQ

738
00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:15,560
Speaker 1: plus brothers and sisters. We're not going to abandon them

739
00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:20,120
Speaker 1: for the almighty dollar in China. Oh no, they actually are, though,

740
00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:21,920
Speaker 1: see that that's the thing. They actually will. It's the

741
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:24,799
Speaker 1: point because otherwise they'd have such a great opportunity here

742
00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:28,719
Speaker 1: to make that that big moment that stands and they

743
00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:31,040
Speaker 1: could really, they could really do something. I also just

744
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:34,280
Speaker 1: think it's funny that, right, now you have a Saudi

745
00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 1: billionaire yep, who built nothing. By the way, the Saudis

746
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:43,799
Speaker 1: that are billionaires are essentially autocrat politicians who happen to

747
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:47,360
Speaker 1: be in a desert built atop a lot of oil.

748
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:49,960
Speaker 1: So it's not like they're you know, there's a new

749
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:53,239
Speaker 1: genius involved here. There was a bunch of tribal warfare

750
00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:55,680
Speaker 1: that then led to like the al Sad family being

751
00:41:55,719 --> 00:42:00,560
Speaker 1: in charge. Anyway, but people are cheering for this guy

752
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:04,279
Speaker 1: on Twitter for at least for now, stop it or

753
00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 1: making it harder for Elon to do this hostile, hostile

754
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,000
Speaker 1: takeover Twitter. Just to give you a sense of how

755
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:12,279
Speaker 1: much the journos and the academics and the blue check

756
00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:16,960
Speaker 1: community on Twitter hate free speech. They will cheer for

757
00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:22,440
Speaker 1: the Saudi regime that dismembers journalists and won't let women

758
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:27,719
Speaker 1: drive and as an authoritarian, fascist religious state. As long

759
00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:31,080
Speaker 1: as Elon can actually get control of Twitter. That's where

760
00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:35,040
Speaker 1: they stand. It's perfect, It's absolutely perfectly said, and that

761
00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:37,880
Speaker 1: is where we are right now. By the way, CNBC

762
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:41,560
Speaker 1: reporting during our commercial break that the board of Twitter

763
00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:45,919
Speaker 1: is essentially a wide as we told you would likely

764
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:48,600
Speaker 1: be the case against Twitter being able to be purchased

765
00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:51,480
Speaker 1: by Elon Musk, even though it would be a substantial

766
00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:54,560
Speaker 1: premium four shareholders, of which, by the way, I am

767
00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:57,560
Speaker 1: one and I would support this. Of course, they're now

768
00:42:57,600 --> 00:43:01,719
Speaker 1: working on poison pills inside of the company to try

769
00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:05,080
Speaker 1: to make it impossible for Elon Musk to wage a

770
00:43:05,120 --> 00:43:08,640
Speaker 1: hostile takeover of Twitter. By the way, Elon Musk also

771
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:14,239
Speaker 1: speaking in a previously scheduled TED talk and has made

772
00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:17,120
Speaker 1: a few comments about this situation as well. But what

773
00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:19,480
Speaker 1: we told you in the first hour and have continued

774
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:23,319
Speaker 1: to reinforce in the second hour, is the forces of

775
00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:31,400
Speaker 1: left wing anti free speech behavior are aligning against Elon

776
00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:34,520
Speaker 1: Musk and what he could do if he took over Twitter.

777
00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:36,520
Speaker 1: And this is a sign, Buck, and I think it's

778
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:39,600
Speaker 1: an important message that everybody should pay attention to. They

779
00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:41,600
Speaker 1: are not running Twitter to try to make as much

780
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:45,080
Speaker 1: money as possible. They are running Twitter to try to

781
00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:49,319
Speaker 1: influence the world as much as possible in a left

782
00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:52,759
Speaker 1: wing basis. Because if they were running it entirely for money, Buck,

783
00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:55,960
Speaker 1: you take that twenty percent premium, you sell the company

784
00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:58,080
Speaker 1: and it goes and everybody puts the money in their

785
00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:00,200
Speaker 1: pocket and moves on. Well, this is a lie that

786
00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:02,440
Speaker 1: the left has been telling for a long time. They

787
00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:05,760
Speaker 1: will they will say things like, oh, Hollywood's not liberal,

788
00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:09,160
Speaker 1: They're just they're just chasing what's profitable. They're just giving

789
00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:11,319
Speaker 1: the audience what it wants. That's actually not true at all.

790
00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:14,120
Speaker 1: They're all these times when it's a huge surprise when

791
00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:17,960
Speaker 1: there's a conservative values movie that happens to thread the

792
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:20,279
Speaker 1: needle and get made and it's like some kind of

793
00:44:20,320 --> 00:44:23,480
Speaker 1: mega hit, you know, with a tiny budget, and Hollywood

794
00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:26,320
Speaker 1: obviously has a huge audience. They could, they don't because

795
00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:31,200
Speaker 1: they feel a certain way about certain content and they

796
00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:32,719
Speaker 1: think they're on a mission. I mean, the people that

797
00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:36,480
Speaker 1: are behind this believe that they are doing something for

798
00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:39,239
Speaker 1: the greater good. Unfortunately, they're wrong. And as we see

799
00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:43,360
Speaker 1: from all the censors, the censorious Blue check Brigade, Clay

800
00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:46,600
Speaker 1: these people, if nothing else, it's all been exposed. They

801
00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:50,520
Speaker 1: hate free speech, they hate the First Amendment. It terrifies them.

802
00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:54,480
Speaker 1: And we're going to see what it means if we

803
00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:56,160
Speaker 1: actually get a level playing field. I think there'll be

804
00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:58,359
Speaker 1: a lot of Libs crushed. They will be driven from

805
00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:00,680
Speaker 1: their villages, and we will hear their lemon stations. As

806
00:45:00,719 --> 00:45:06,080
Speaker 1: Conan said. What they want is not equal competition. They

807
00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:08,759
Speaker 1: want a rigged space and they know they've got it

808
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:11,239
Speaker 1: at Twitter right now. And what Elon Musk is trying

809
00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:14,319
Speaker 1: to do is destroy the rigging. Will he be able

810
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:16,880
Speaker 1: to be successful? Stay tuned. Do you ever see Conan

811
00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:20,160
Speaker 1: the Barbarian? By the way, Okay Man, just making sure Travis,

812
00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:22,560
Speaker 1: I was going to add it to your watch list. No, no, no, no,

813
00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:35,200
Speaker 1: I've seen that. I'm not I'm not a communist. Third

814
00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:38,480
Speaker 1: hour of The clan Buck Show underway. Thanks for rolling

815
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:41,759
Speaker 1: with us. If you're just joining, appreciate that. Make sure

816
00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:43,279
Speaker 1: you go back and check out what we talked about

817
00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:47,040
Speaker 1: on the podcast. Our friend Anne Culture is with us now.

818
00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:50,680
Speaker 1: She is a thirteen time New York Times best selling

819
00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:53,160
Speaker 1: author Audios America's one of my favorites. By the way,

820
00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:54,920
Speaker 1: we'll be talking to immigration with her to second and

821
00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:57,320
Speaker 1: pick that one up. Still very good reading to this day.

822
00:45:57,600 --> 00:45:59,839
Speaker 1: She's got a calm out this week in historic first

823
00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:03,520
Speaker 1: five five hundred and thirty pound woman confirmed to Supreme Court.

824
00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:06,160
Speaker 1: That is up at endculter dot com. Miss Culter, good

825
00:46:06,160 --> 00:46:09,920
Speaker 1: to have you back, great to be here. So tell

826
00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:12,400
Speaker 1: us about this because you you seem to notice something

827
00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:15,760
Speaker 1: that I certainly did as well as I was getting

828
00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:20,400
Speaker 1: text messages from NYPD sources where I did for a

829
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:24,520
Speaker 1: brief period work myself saying that the suspect is a

830
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:28,920
Speaker 1: heavy set black male. Then I kept seeing on the

831
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:32,920
Speaker 1: news they're looking for a man, and that was pretty

832
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:35,359
Speaker 1: much it. And man, I think five five. They kept

833
00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:38,440
Speaker 1: saying in the early stages, this seemed suspicious or strange

834
00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:42,800
Speaker 1: to you, and what's going on? Yes, they're not so

835
00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:47,000
Speaker 1: shy when it's the first black woman Supreme Court justice,

836
00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:49,799
Speaker 1: or in the case of the police commissioner in New York,

837
00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:56,120
Speaker 1: who also had some amusing circumlocutions to avoid saying black mail.

838
00:46:57,360 --> 00:47:00,360
Speaker 1: She was the first black woman police commission nerve of

839
00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:04,919
Speaker 1: the New York the police Force. Um, I mean this, this,

840
00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:10,440
Speaker 1: this rule in reporting um being imposed from the left,

841
00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:15,040
Speaker 1: that that information that hurts black people's feelings cannot be

842
00:47:15,120 --> 00:47:20,560
Speaker 1: revealed is beyond silliness and eye rolling. And particularly in

843
00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:23,120
Speaker 1: a case like this, this wasn't. I mean, I think

844
00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:25,960
Speaker 1: all people know that when you see um, you know

845
00:47:26,040 --> 00:47:28,240
Speaker 1: some crime was committed. If this were just a mugging

846
00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:31,680
Speaker 1: and you've got lots of information. Wearing a red jacket

847
00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:37,239
Speaker 1: and a baseball app um. But but no mention, no pictures, no, no,

848
00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:41,200
Speaker 1: no description of the race. Okay, everybody has learned. Oh

849
00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:43,440
Speaker 1: if they don't tell us, then well we know it's

850
00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:46,279
Speaker 1: not a white guy, probably a black guy. Um, they

851
00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:49,560
Speaker 1: might tell us Asian or Hispanic. But in this case,

852
00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:52,319
Speaker 1: it wasn't just a regular mugging. I mean, all the

853
00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:56,960
Speaker 1: all the the ear marks of this crime, an attack

854
00:47:57,440 --> 00:48:01,800
Speaker 1: in an underground subway station, what appeared to be bombs

855
00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:05,959
Speaker 1: at first it was smoke bombs and fireworks, the guy

856
00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:11,360
Speaker 1: wearing a gas mask and random shooting. Wow, that sounds

857
00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:13,960
Speaker 1: like a terrorist attack. So if they're not going to

858
00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:18,160
Speaker 1: tell us the race, but only five eight, one hundred

859
00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:20,640
Speaker 1: and sixty pounds and that was about the extent of it.

860
00:48:20,719 --> 00:48:25,040
Speaker 1: Ohhen mail, So that narrows it down to only seven

861
00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:29,839
Speaker 1: million people in New York being on the lookout. There's

862
00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:32,520
Speaker 1: nothing to be on the lookout for. I mean, there's

863
00:48:32,560 --> 00:48:34,840
Speaker 1: no reason this should have taken twenty four hours, and

864
00:48:34,880 --> 00:48:38,080
Speaker 1: at least according to current reports, the guy had to

865
00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:43,840
Speaker 1: call nine one one on himself. Would we ever have

866
00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:46,480
Speaker 1: found him if he hadn't decided to ask through it?

867
00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:50,479
Speaker 1: I'm sick of this McDonald's come get me. No, of course,

868
00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:52,800
Speaker 1: no one is going to recognize this person who is

869
00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:56,440
Speaker 1: on the loose. And this is admitted. All of these

870
00:48:56,680 --> 00:48:59,759
Speaker 1: you know, call the crime tips line called the NYPDE

871
00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:04,200
Speaker 1: Tips t if you see anything, what are we looking for?

872
00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:08,239
Speaker 1: What is it? Nail five eight about one hundred and

873
00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:10,280
Speaker 1: fifty pounds. Which is why the title of my column

874
00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:14,120
Speaker 1: was woman five five, one hundred and thirty pounds nominated

875
00:49:14,160 --> 00:49:18,320
Speaker 1: to Supreme Court in historic. First, I appreciate the title

876
00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:20,640
Speaker 1: of the column, and but I thought it was frankly

877
00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:24,680
Speaker 1: a little bit not inclusive enough because we don't know

878
00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:26,880
Speaker 1: for sure that she is a woman, right, I mean,

879
00:49:26,920 --> 00:49:30,200
Speaker 1: when you really break it down, are we even sure?

880
00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:32,319
Speaker 1: I mean that she is a woman because she was

881
00:49:32,360 --> 00:49:34,879
Speaker 1: asked what a woman was, she couldn't answer it. And

882
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:38,040
Speaker 1: given the fact that you've got women getting other women pregnant,

883
00:49:38,040 --> 00:49:40,480
Speaker 1: evidently according to left wing standards, I don't know if

884
00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:44,479
Speaker 1: you saw this story. In a prison, they have men,

885
00:49:44,800 --> 00:49:46,680
Speaker 1: which I don't really blame a man. I mean, you've

886
00:49:46,680 --> 00:49:49,880
Speaker 1: got men who are surrounded by other men. It's a violent,

887
00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:54,000
Speaker 1: physically uncomfortable and scene. And then evidently in New Jersey,

888
00:49:54,040 --> 00:49:55,839
Speaker 1: if you just raise your hand and say actually I

889
00:49:55,840 --> 00:49:58,200
Speaker 1: identify as a woman. They will flip you over to

890
00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:00,760
Speaker 1: the women's prison and then suddenly you could just sleep

891
00:50:00,800 --> 00:50:03,280
Speaker 1: with women while you're in prison and get them pregnant.

892
00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:07,279
Speaker 1: This is the woke world that we've created. Yes, and

893
00:50:07,920 --> 00:50:11,120
Speaker 1: I believe at least some people in prison are in

894
00:50:11,160 --> 00:50:15,560
Speaker 1: prison for rape, so it gets points better the eight

895
00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:18,680
Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw this. The UK Health

896
00:50:18,719 --> 00:50:25,279
Speaker 1: Service now by law is required to ask men in dresses,

897
00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:30,840
Speaker 1: could you be pregnant? I mean, I just I don't

898
00:50:30,880 --> 00:50:32,680
Speaker 1: even know where we're going with all. I mean, it

899
00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:35,320
Speaker 1: is so funny that the Party of Science has descended

900
00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:38,200
Speaker 1: to this level of absurdity. And to that Endeman, I

901
00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:40,520
Speaker 1: have a contention here that that the left has actually

902
00:50:40,600 --> 00:50:44,160
Speaker 1: been able to make itself even crazier than many of

903
00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:47,040
Speaker 1: us conservatives could have anticipated five or ten years ago

904
00:50:47,480 --> 00:50:52,920
Speaker 1: because of their their totalitarian North Korea style control when

905
00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:54,960
Speaker 1: when they want it, they don't exercise it all the time,

906
00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:57,640
Speaker 1: but when they want it over Twitter, over Facebook, and

907
00:50:57,640 --> 00:50:59,520
Speaker 1: it's actually worse because at least North Korea, you know,

908
00:50:59,560 --> 00:51:01,800
Speaker 1: it's a militarian they do a lot of it behind

909
00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:05,200
Speaker 1: the scenes. What are your thoughts about Elon stepping up

910
00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:08,240
Speaker 1: here and maybe buying Twitter if it actually can go through.

911
00:51:08,719 --> 00:51:11,640
Speaker 1: And just the fact that you have blue check journalists

912
00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:14,640
Speaker 1: in meltdown about the prospect that they don't have a

913
00:51:14,680 --> 00:51:18,359
Speaker 1: thumb on the scale for them anymore. Yes, it's it's

914
00:51:18,400 --> 00:51:24,319
Speaker 1: really been striking how the phrase free speech is now

915
00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:29,040
Speaker 1: synonymous with right wing. Oh boy, the left has given

916
00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:31,440
Speaker 1: up on that. I mean, obviously it would be great.

917
00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:35,640
Speaker 1: We'll see, let's see if it happened. Somebody tweeted out

918
00:51:35,640 --> 00:51:38,359
Speaker 1: and I couldn't even remember all of the examples, they

919
00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:40,040
Speaker 1: were just off the top of my head. But a

920
00:51:40,160 --> 00:51:45,520
Speaker 1: liberal had tweeted out, was this conservative anger at Twitter

921
00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:49,880
Speaker 1: about is this just about Hunter Biden's laptop and Trump?

922
00:51:50,239 --> 00:51:54,960
Speaker 1: And in ten seconds I lifted off approximately ten people

923
00:51:55,200 --> 00:52:00,280
Speaker 1: who have been permanently banned from Twitter, most recently libs

924
00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:05,080
Speaker 1: of TikTok and Babylon b Katie Hopkins in the UK,

925
00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:09,600
Speaker 1: of course, Gavin McGinnis, Milo Napolis, Alex Jones, and I

926
00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:12,440
Speaker 1: didn't even get into Jesse Kelly. I didn't even get

927
00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:17,720
Speaker 1: into the temporary bands like for well me for saying

928
00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:24,040
Speaker 1: something positive about Kyle Rittenhouse before he was magnificently gigantically

929
00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:27,319
Speaker 1: vindicated in a court of law. Anyone who posted any

930
00:52:27,360 --> 00:52:33,840
Speaker 1: supportive tweet about Kyle Rittenhouse until his trial and acquittal

931
00:52:34,440 --> 00:52:38,160
Speaker 1: what more than a year later, was suspended from Twitter

932
00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:40,879
Speaker 1: until you agree to take down the tweet. They are

933
00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:44,520
Speaker 1: very much like North Korea, and I would I would

934
00:52:44,560 --> 00:52:46,560
Speaker 1: like liberals as long as they consider this a good

935
00:52:46,600 --> 00:52:50,160
Speaker 1: policy to sign off on it for actual criminals like

936
00:52:50,320 --> 00:52:55,400
Speaker 1: the aforementioned rapists and murders, and that is if you

937
00:52:55,480 --> 00:52:59,640
Speaker 1: send out, for example, a tweet supporting Kyle Rittenhouse before

938
00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:05,520
Speaker 1: he's he's acquitted, um, they suspend your account, remove the

939
00:53:05,600 --> 00:53:09,200
Speaker 1: tweet for you, and then say the only way you

940
00:53:09,239 --> 00:53:11,680
Speaker 1: will be allowed back on. So you're in Twitter jail.

941
00:53:11,840 --> 00:53:14,400
Speaker 1: Nobody can see you can't tweet, nobody can see your

942
00:53:14,400 --> 00:53:18,920
Speaker 1: Twitter feed, and within you know, you know, within that world,

943
00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:22,560
Speaker 1: they have gone ahead and helpfully deleted your tweets. So

944
00:53:22,680 --> 00:53:26,719
Speaker 1: you're in jail. The punishment has been delivered, but you

945
00:53:26,760 --> 00:53:31,320
Speaker 1: can't get back on until you personally agree to delete

946
00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:34,320
Speaker 1: the tweet. It's kind of like a metaphor from marriage

947
00:53:34,360 --> 00:53:42,560
Speaker 1: real criminal by the way speaking, sorry go ahead, no no,

948
00:53:42,600 --> 00:53:45,960
Speaker 1: I was just gonna you're pointing out this insane hypocrisy.

949
00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:47,960
Speaker 1: We were just talking about to close out the second

950
00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:50,759
Speaker 1: hour of the program, and I'm sure that you at

951
00:53:50,840 --> 00:53:53,560
Speaker 1: least saw some of the fallout from the Oscars when

952
00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:56,040
Speaker 1: when when they walked out and they said, we're gonna

953
00:53:56,080 --> 00:53:58,319
Speaker 1: say gay and obviously you live in Florida, so you're

954
00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:00,879
Speaker 1: familiar with it, don't say gay bill. Have you paid

955
00:54:00,880 --> 00:54:05,359
Speaker 1: attention to the fact that China has exercised all references

956
00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:08,160
Speaker 1: to gay from a new Harry Potter film. I don't

957
00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:12,279
Speaker 1: think they were particularly significant in terms of being overwhelming,

958
00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:15,839
Speaker 1: but they Hollywood took all of them out. MGM did

959
00:54:16,280 --> 00:54:20,320
Speaker 1: not one Hollywood star has said a word about China

960
00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:24,560
Speaker 1: legitimately saying you can't say gay in a film. Yet

961
00:54:24,600 --> 00:54:27,560
Speaker 1: they're still teeing off on the Florida Bill, which doesn't

962
00:54:27,560 --> 00:54:30,440
Speaker 1: have anything specifically to say about gay. To me, it's

963
00:54:30,480 --> 00:54:34,920
Speaker 1: just a perfect approximation and personification of hypocrisy and Hollywood

964
00:54:34,960 --> 00:54:38,799
Speaker 1: over an issue such as this. Yes, that is an

965
00:54:38,800 --> 00:54:41,640
Speaker 1: interesting one. I'm trying to think of the liberal logic

966
00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:44,560
Speaker 1: on this. I mean, I am imagining you've seen what's

967
00:54:44,600 --> 00:54:48,319
Speaker 1: going on in Shanghai because they foolishly, unlike Florida and

968
00:54:48,440 --> 00:54:53,080
Speaker 1: Sweden and certain other places did not simply protect the

969
00:54:53,160 --> 00:54:57,799
Speaker 1: vulnerable from COVID and let other people develop natural infection.

970
00:54:58,600 --> 00:55:01,560
Speaker 1: Those of the argus are doing fans pathically well. Luckily,

971
00:55:01,640 --> 00:55:06,720
Speaker 1: natural infection plus vaccination has pretty much immunized the entire

972
00:55:06,760 --> 00:55:11,280
Speaker 1: American population right now. I mean, except for unusual cases

973
00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:17,400
Speaker 1: with particular vulnerabilities. So Shanghai is having a massive wave

974
00:55:17,440 --> 00:55:21,239
Speaker 1: of COVID now and they've lost people in their in

975
00:55:21,280 --> 00:55:25,520
Speaker 1: their apartment buildings. They're being forced to murder their pets

976
00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:32,160
Speaker 1: because they can be carriers of COVID U. And I think,

977
00:55:32,200 --> 00:55:34,640
Speaker 1: I just I wish I could be have like a

978
00:55:34,719 --> 00:55:42,279
Speaker 1: hidden camera on people like doctor Anthony Fauci and imagine

979
00:55:42,360 --> 00:55:46,160
Speaker 1: just the pain and jealousy he has of Shanghai being

980
00:55:46,200 --> 00:55:49,719
Speaker 1: able to the power these Chinese have. They can lock

981
00:55:49,840 --> 00:55:53,919
Speaker 1: people down. They're starving to death, I can't get food deliveries.

982
00:55:53,920 --> 00:55:57,239
Speaker 1: They're screaming out of their apartment building. And I think

983
00:55:57,280 --> 00:56:01,960
Speaker 1: that's probably the trade off the left is making that. Um, yes,

984
00:56:02,120 --> 00:56:07,759
Speaker 1: we do want to enforce our views on transgenders and

985
00:56:08,760 --> 00:56:13,680
Speaker 1: America being and all white people being racist and you know,

986
00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:18,560
Speaker 1: pan sexuality on the populace, but we don't, unfortunately, have

987
00:56:18,760 --> 00:56:22,320
Speaker 1: China's powers right now. So we have to be really

988
00:56:22,440 --> 00:56:25,520
Speaker 1: nice to China so that we can we can develop

989
00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:29,080
Speaker 1: these policies on site China as a wonderful developing country.

990
00:56:29,239 --> 00:56:31,680
Speaker 1: But once we have them, it'll be just the reverse.

991
00:56:31,840 --> 00:56:35,319
Speaker 1: Your movie. Any movie that doesn't have gay references will

992
00:56:35,360 --> 00:56:38,480
Speaker 1: have to be You'll have to insert them. I'm quite certain.

993
00:56:38,520 --> 00:56:40,439
Speaker 1: And that when the drones are flying in the sky

994
00:56:40,520 --> 00:56:44,120
Speaker 1: in Shanghai telling people to subdue their hearts desire for

995
00:56:44,239 --> 00:56:47,440
Speaker 1: freedom and stay inside that Fauci saw that and thought,

996
00:56:47,800 --> 00:56:51,040
Speaker 1: what a great idea. But he doesn't have the power

997
00:56:51,160 --> 00:56:53,520
Speaker 1: quite yet. He doesn't have the power quite yet. And

998
00:56:53,760 --> 00:56:56,600
Speaker 1: culter dot Com for her latest column. It's a really

999
00:56:56,600 --> 00:56:59,160

00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:01,120
Speaker 1: like the terror attack, because it was a terror attack
