1 00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:17,080 Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom hunt. The crazy left is 2 00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:20,320 Speaker 1: not backing down from its calls to abolish ice. In fact, 3 00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:23,600 Speaker 1: the protests and the calls for this insanity are getting 4 00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:27,520 Speaker 1: louder from those who call themselves democrats. Also, the Trump 5 00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:32,559 Speaker 1: administration is rolling back some Obama era rules about affirmative action. 6 00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:37,600 Speaker 1: We'll talk about that. And the politically motivated stalking of 7 00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:42,479 Speaker 1: Trump officials continues. Why have the progressives completely lost all 8 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:44,480 Speaker 1: sense of the quorum? Well, I guess maybe they've lost 9 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 1: their mind. That and more coming up. This is the 10 00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:50,839 Speaker 1: bus Sexton Show, where the mission or mission is to 11 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 1: decode what really matters with actionable intelligence.

Also, grilled meat is just the 38 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: best kind of meat. It just is. You can talk 39 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 1: to me about the smokiness and but I just taste better. 40 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 1: But since a lot of you, I'm sure tomorrow are 41 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 1: gonna be doing that, you know, tonight's a good night 42 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:41,800 Speaker 1: for you to call in and tell me what your 43 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 1: thoughts are about the subject matter of the day, or 44 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: the things that are on your mind, whatever that may be. 45 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 1: This role abolished ICE thing, I want to start with that. 46 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:56,119 Speaker 1: As I've been I came at this from the perspective of, well, 47 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,640 Speaker 1: hold on, this policy doesn't make any sense. This is 48 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: this is a nonsensical thing to say. And then I 49 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 1: walked you through how there's the you know, the history 50 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:12,920 Speaker 1: of US customs enforcement before immigrations and customs enforcement were 51 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:17,079 Speaker 1: merged together, you know, United States custom Service, and how 52 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:21,920 Speaker 1: you need to have this to abolish ICE would mean 53 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,799 Speaker 1: you would not have anyone there to do vetting for 54 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 1: people who are actual asylum seekers. So if you want 55 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:30,639 Speaker 1: to talk about being heartless and mean, there will be 56 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 1: none of that. You would have no one to work 57 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: on these cases that come into the country or people 58 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: say that you know, they've they've you know, their family 59 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 1: has been separated, or anything else. It's just it doesn't work. 60 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 1: It doesn't work. And then also interior enforcement because customs 61 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 1: or rather border patrolled it isn't driving around the country, 62 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: although they will go I think up to a hundred 63 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 1: miles in the U s interior. They won't drive around 64 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: the country going into meat processing plants and other plays 65 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 1: and try to do these roundups of illegal, illegal alien labor, 66 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: so they have no interior force. It's just not But 67 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 1: you know, I have to stop myself because it's really 68 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 1: not about a policy. And that's why you've got Kirsten 69 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 1: Gillibrand and a bunch of other Democrat politicians now repeating 70 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:24,920 Speaker 1: this refrain about how it's times. I think Corey Booker 71 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 1: has also said, you know, abolish ice. Time to abolish ice. 72 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:35,040 Speaker 1: I spoke earlier today to the Democrat would be governor 73 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,039 Speaker 1: of Maryland. You know, Maryland's kind of a funky state 74 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: in that way. It is overwhelmingly blue, very blue, and 75 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: very anti Trump, but it also has it really popular 76 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: governor who's a Republican. Now, he's a moderate Republican. Some 77 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: of you might refer to him uncharitably as a rhino, 78 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,840 Speaker 1: and I don't think that would be I don't think 79 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: he'd be far off with that one. But to be 80 00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: a rhino in Maryland is a is a tough act 81 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: to pull off, I think. But this, uh, this challenger said, 82 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 1: you know, no, we shouldn't abolishize. We need we need ice. 83 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,920 Speaker 1: So I say to myself, oh, look, some people are 84 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,599 Speaker 1: figuring this out, but it's not. It was never about 85 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 1: the policy. I need to stop thinking about what's happening 86 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 1: from the perspective of legislation at law and and just 87 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:27,360 Speaker 1: look at this much more through a community organizer, a 88 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:31,720 Speaker 1: Lynskyite lens, and then it all starts to make sense. 89 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 1: Then you understand why they're chanting abolish ice, and then 90 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 1: you know where this comes from when when they're uh 91 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 1: and hat tip Peter Hassan at The Daily Caller for 92 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:46,039 Speaker 1: this that vandals at an abolish ice protest through a 93 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: brick through the window of the Nebraska Republican Party's headquarters 94 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: in Lincoln, Nebraska. So now you have an understanding for Okay, 95 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 1: well this isn't really just they know they're not going 96 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,799 Speaker 1: to abolish ice, so why say it? What is the point? 97 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: But then I take this to what we discussed yesterday 98 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 1: with Okazio Cortes and how she is part of this group. 99 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 1: These democrats are the socialist rather of New York City 100 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 1: that want to abolish prophet the You're never going to 101 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 1: do that, so why say it? Oh, that's right, it 102 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:27,720 Speaker 1: is because it's about mobilization. This is why you have 103 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 1: ICE protesters berating cops. For example, what do cops have 104 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 1: to do with immigrations and customs enforce but local law 105 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 1: enforcement doesn't do the functions of ICE. In fact, what 106 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: we see overwhelmingly is because of sanctuary city jurisdictions across 107 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:49,559 Speaker 1: the country, local police are largely prohibited from doing even 108 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 1: the bare minimum of assisting in immigrations and customs enforcements. 109 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 1: Bare minimum. They don't want to do it. So you 110 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 1: have ICE pro You have these pro testers against ICE. 111 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: They want to abolish ICE, and now they're getting angry 112 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 1: at police. Here's what it sounded like in Philadelphia, play 113 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: third team. You wouldn't have you have you or you 114 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: have your shape, you have you have your You said 115 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: if we do at sent down, you would have rest, 116 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: no right, but you still arrested. You have no shame, 117 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 1: you have no work. That's why you're up. That's why 118 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 1: you're not high school. That's why you're here. You can't 119 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 1: that's the only way you give me any They didn't 120 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 1: do anything anything. That's why they cops could have such 121 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 1: loans not to stay. Now for a woman to go 122 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 1: up to police officers and say that they have just 123 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 1: because their police officer. Remember, the cops are at a protest, 124 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: usually to keep the protesters safe. Okay, they're there to 125 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 1: protect the First Amendment rights of the protesters. I've seen 126 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 1: it time and again in New York work. So they 127 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 1: often lose sight of this though, and somehow they think 128 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: the cops are the enemy. But that woman was saying 129 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 1: to this police officer, you have no shame, you have 130 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: no worth. You didn't finish high school, that's why you're here. 131 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 1: What does that have to do with abolishing ice and 132 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: immigrations and customers forcement? Why why be verbally abusive to 133 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 1: police officers who, by the way, even the most idiotic 134 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 1: leftists would have to admit, if we didn't have cops, 135 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 1: it would be mad Max, right, if we didn't have 136 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: law enforcement on the streets, we would have big problems 137 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 1: in this country. Immediately, I think, I think anybody who 138 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 1: has a you know, a functioning brain knows that. So 139 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,959 Speaker 1: why be so nasty to a police? Why take this tone? 140 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 1: It wasn't just there also there were chances about how 141 00:08:50,280 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 1: police are racist played twelve. I've heard that chap before. 142 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,839 Speaker 1: This is all a retread you've heard it as well, 143 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 1: not just the Black Lives Matter protests, but before that 144 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 1: at the very virulently anti cop protests that were a 145 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 1: part of the Occupy Wall Street movement. Folks, these are 146 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 1: all this is just all the community activists left coming 147 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:28,080 Speaker 1: back together and trying to get energized and chance. This 148 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 1: is a Lynsky one oh one. It's not about policy. 149 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,679 Speaker 1: It's such a stupid thing to say that could only 150 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 1: be about saying it, not doing anything right. They literally 151 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 1: just want to chant this because they know it's never 152 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 1: gonna happen. But the chant becomes its own justification because 153 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 1: people feel good and they feel fired up, and they 154 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 1: want to go abolish ice, Abolish ice. What comes after that? 155 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 1: Why abolish ice? Wouldn't you want more people in immigrations 156 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 1: and customs enforcements so they can process asylum claims. Wouldn't 157 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,599 Speaker 1: you want more people involved in this process so that 158 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:05,839 Speaker 1: it could be more orderly and efficient and therefore people 159 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 1: with the right to come into this country would be 160 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 1: able to or those who have an honest claim for asylum. 161 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 1: But it's about you see there. They know that the 162 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 1: whole game at the border has been overwhelming. The system 163 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 1: also straight out of the Olynsky playbook. Overwhelm the system, 164 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 1: bring it down to its knees, find the scenes, find 165 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 1: the weak points and attack and abuse them. Don't win 166 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 1: the argument, don't win people over to your side, collapse 167 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 1: the system, and then and then you'll have control. I 168 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 1: know it sounds almost conspiratorial, but Rules for Radicals is 169 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 1: one of the most important books I think any of 170 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 1: us could read. It's certainly in the top and for 171 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: American politics today, it's in the top twent of your thirty. 172 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 1: If you remember, in a in Olynsky's writings, he said 173 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,680 Speaker 1: that once you have a people mobilized on one issue, 174 00:10:57,679 --> 00:10:59,959 Speaker 1: and I'm paraphrasing, you have the mobilized on all issues, 175 00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 1: abolish ICE is just a chant to channel the rage 176 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,680 Speaker 1: of the left and the idea of being The more 177 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,360 Speaker 1: you get them fired up over this, and the more 178 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 1: you get people out there and seeing protests, and the 179 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 1: greater the demonization of immigrations and customs enforcement, but really 180 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 1: of the Republican Party and the Trump administration that is 181 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: in charge of ICE, as it is an executive branch agency. 182 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:26,679 Speaker 1: The more they can do that, the more they can 183 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 1: pull that off, the greater they think is the possibility 184 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 1: that they will win seats and then have power. So 185 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:37,200 Speaker 1: it's not a policy argument, it's an emotion argument. It 186 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,199 Speaker 1: is a it is a fire up the base approach, 187 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 1: but it is also scorched earth as a means of 188 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:46,319 Speaker 1: firing up the base because it does real damage to 189 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 1: people's perceptions of immigrations and customs of federal law enforces. 190 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:54,439 Speaker 1: The same people, the same activist groups in some cases 191 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 1: who or just so upset about any criticism of senior 192 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 1: FBI leadership, obviously involved in highly politicized decision making against Trump, 193 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 1: against the Trump administration. Oh, you're undermining democracy, and you 194 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,440 Speaker 1: know those same people are now saying, oh, how you 195 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 1: know this is iis terrible. Iis for losers, for bad people. 196 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:19,239 Speaker 1: They're they're criticizing the individuals who work for the agency. 197 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 1: By the way, it's also a tactic of border extremists, 198 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: including groups like Larazza. They we'll go after people who 199 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 1: work for the border patrol, will call them traitors, they'll 200 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 1: call them evil, all kinds of things you see on 201 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 1: this notion of an a Lynskyite collapsing of the system. 202 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 1: One of them. Either there are two obvious ways that 203 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 1: you can do it. There are two ways you can 204 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 1: bring America down without military force, in fact, without firing 205 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 1: a shot. At least two ways that I know of. 206 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 1: One collapse our financial system. The best way to do 207 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 1: that is to create a debt time bomb, that is 208 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 1: that eventually makes our currency workless. And if you look 209 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 1: at the history of currency over the course of centuries 210 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:13,440 Speaker 1: a fiat currency, there is a hundred percent success rate 211 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: with fiat currencies of being eventually worth nothing. Not something 212 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 1: that you'll hear many people say, but it is true. 213 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 1: Fiance currencies all go under at some point, just a 214 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,960 Speaker 1: question to when. So that's one way that the system 215 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 1: can collapse on itself. People will say, oh buck, how 216 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 1: far out of it? I don't know, but they're playing 217 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 1: the long game, folks. Another way is to so overwhelm 218 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 1: our borders and the immigration system with new arrivals, constant arrivals, 219 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 1: illegal crossings, drugs smuggling, human smuggling, illegal activity, that the 220 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 1: American people no longer have faith and law enforce ins 221 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 1: ability to have borders, and then everything from there just 222 00:13:56,520 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 1: begins to crumble. Well, you know what I'm gonna I'm 223 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:02,679 Speaker 1: gonna trust law enforcement when they can't actually tell me 224 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 1: who's in the country and who's not. You're gonna pay 225 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:07,679 Speaker 1: your taxes knowing people are coming and going as they 226 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 1: please without paying any taxes and facing any penalties. Are 227 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 1: you going to feel bound by the law? And this 228 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 1: is really what it comes down to, when the law 229 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 1: has been so decimated, when people have been able to 230 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 1: run rough shower of the law and essentially make it 231 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 1: irrelevant when it comes to our borders and our sovereignty. 232 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 1: Are you going to want to hear from, you know, 233 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 1: federal bureaucrats about how the pond in your backyard is 234 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 1: a wetland and you're gonna get a forty dollar a 235 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 1: day fine for it. I don't think so. I mean, 236 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 1: you don't want to hear that now, but you definitely 237 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 1: don't want to hear it if if we become a 238 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 1: near open border state. Open borders is the end of 239 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 1: this country, if we ever get there. There are activist 240 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 1: groups that are pushing for it, and they think that 241 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 1: if they're able to seize power maybe one more time, 242 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 1: if they're able to be in charge, they'll push us 243 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 1: so far down the pathway that it will be irretrievable 244 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 1: for us to actually be a rule of law society 245 00:14:56,440 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 1: with some hope of the incredible run we've had. We 246 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 1: think it's gonna last forever. This prosperity, this unique political culture, 247 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 1: this experiment that we have as a republic. We think 248 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 1: it will just go forever. Remember a republic if you 249 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: can keep it. These olynskey eye types, whether it's the 250 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 1: border or any number of issues, they're trying really hard 251 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 1: to make sure that we can't keep it. Something to 252 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 1: remember as we go in to the fourth of July. 253 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 1: Here eight four four to five, eight four four nuck. 254 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 1: If you would like to chat, I would love to 255 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 1: chat with you. Give me a ring. We'll be right back. 256 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 1: The Democrats message right now, which is oppose everything and 257 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 1: do nothing. It's frankly gotten really sad that their party 258 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 1: has no message, no leadership, no solutions, and they want 259 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 1: to fighter president who's trying to lead and who's doing 260 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 1: amazing things for our country. Uh, and things that are 261 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 1: really hard to argue with. Yeah, they do have. The 262 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 1: Democrats have no message right now about anything. And I 263 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 1: think they're gonna find out that quote Trump is hitler 264 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 1: end quote is not inspiring to anybody who's not a 265 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 1: little deranged. It's not gonna work, especially with the country 266 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 1: that is doing as well as as this country is. 267 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 1: And I'm wondering when they think this is going to change, 268 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 1: when they think that there's going to be a a 269 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 1: moment for the message to all of a sudden come through. 270 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 1: Oh it's July. Nothing happens in d C in August, 271 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 1: and no one's really paying attention to the national political 272 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 1: race in August either, So we got September October, two 273 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 1: months really for them to make the case the American people. 274 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 1: I just think it's not going to be a case 275 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,520 Speaker 1: that they're able to make. And I also think that 276 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 1: all of these, all of these incidents, and I'll talk 277 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 1: about the latest ones of what I call politically motivated stalking, 278 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 1: where you have members of the Trump administration who are 279 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 1: followed around by people harassed, and Prue is the latest one. 280 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 1: Although bru It's make him a little too easy for 281 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 1: the left to pick him apart. I'm a bit frustrated 282 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 1: with the guy is not helping himself with some of 283 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 1: his decision making. But it's we've we've reached a point 284 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:17,160 Speaker 1: here where there's obviously something really off about a lot 285 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 1: of people in the left, there's obviously a real problem 286 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:26,919 Speaker 1: with the way that they're approaching politics discourse, trying to 287 00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:30,399 Speaker 1: be respectful, trying to be people who have manners. I 288 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 1: know that sounds like, oh, do you have manners? But no, really, 289 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:35,399 Speaker 1: we got to be decent enough to each other. We 290 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:38,200 Speaker 1: can't have folks getting a costed every time they go 291 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:40,879 Speaker 1: out in public and the EPA administrator, you're gonna go 292 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 1: off the EPA administrator. Really, we will talk about that 293 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 1: proved situation, but I always feel like that's a that 294 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 1: is an in kind donation the Republican Party in many 295 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,679 Speaker 1: ways when they're really nasty to Betsy Divorce, when they 296 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:55,600 Speaker 1: get up in Mitch McConnell's wife's face, and then when 297 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 1: a lad and Chow is like, oh oh really you 298 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 1: want you want to mess with on of this? She 299 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:04,160 Speaker 1: was pretty awesome. I think it is a life goal 300 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,360 Speaker 1: find somebody who's got your back, like a Lane has 301 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 1: mitches back. But it just shows us that they're not 302 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:12,639 Speaker 1: making a case. They're not making an argument based on 303 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 1: what's gonna make your life better? So why would you 304 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 1: show up and vote for them? Why would you care? 305 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 1: If you're an independent and there are a lot of 306 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,199 Speaker 1: independents who listen to this show because you know, they 307 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:25,199 Speaker 1: like smart stuff. If you're an independent, you think that 308 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 1: this is a good idea. You're gonna hand power over 309 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 1: these people. All they talk about us that everything should 310 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 1: be free and Trump is Hitler. Well, everything isn't gonna 311 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 1: be free, and free is often the most expensive thing 312 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 1: of all in any country. Uh, and Trump is not Hitler. 313 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,880 Speaker 1: And people who say so, we're idiots. So I think 314 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,679 Speaker 1: we can defeat the d n C messaging machine pretty easily. 315 00:18:56,119 --> 00:19:00,400 Speaker 1: He's holding the line for America. Buck Sexton is act. 316 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:05,119 Speaker 1: It's a call for anarchy, and it's amazing that it 317 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:08,479 Speaker 1: has caught on and it has been spreading even abug 318 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 1: um what we're thought to be mainstream democrats. I mean, 319 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:17,119 Speaker 1: it's insane. You don't have borders, you don't have a country, 320 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:20,960 Speaker 1: and when you're a welfare state like the US has become, 321 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 1: it is just a giant sucking sound from all over 322 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 1: the world. You can't control it. And it means anarchy. 323 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:32,199 Speaker 1: It means Mike makes right and then that ultimately leads 324 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:37,159 Speaker 1: to a totalitarian dictator coming in and uh rounding up 325 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 1: the military taking over. It's it's the way countries end 326 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 1: and a new dictatorship begins. Louis Gohmert's worried about it, 327 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 1: for sure. I think he's on the right track here 328 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 1: abolishing borders. What it would actually lead to some pretty 329 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 1: some pretty scary stuff, folks. Now, it's not gonna happen overnight, 330 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 1: and they're not going to be open about the end 331 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 1: state here, the end goal. But make no mistake about it. 332 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 1: Every empire before ours, and yes America is an empire, 333 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:11,440 Speaker 1: just is a benevolent one. But every empire is before 334 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 1: ours has fallen. Every empire has crumbled. So if we 335 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 1: want to be the exception, we gotta fight, and we 336 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:24,399 Speaker 1: gotta keep things. We have to well support the founding 337 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:27,639 Speaker 1: principles and stay within our charter. What is this country 338 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 1: all about? What are we really trying to do? You 339 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 1: don't have borders, We don't have a country. It's just 340 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 1: the truth. Trump says it all the time. He's right, says, 341 00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:39,840 Speaker 1: straightforward statement of an absolute truth that everyone needs to understand. 342 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 1: And we also need clarity on which side believes in 343 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,919 Speaker 1: it and which side doesn't. But I want to move 344 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 1: for a second here to this this Pruitt situation, this guy. 345 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 1: You know, I want to I want to like, I 346 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 1: want to like prove it because I know he's doing 347 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:07,679 Speaker 1: good things. I know he's doing good things at a 348 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 1: policy level at the e p A. But he keeps 349 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 1: getting hit on with all these different things of where 350 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 1: he's you know, he's just looking a little bit like 351 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 1: he's a little grasping, always trying to get a little 352 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 1: extra on the side, always trying to line his pockets 353 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:31,160 Speaker 1: a bit. And but you know, at the policy level 354 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 1: ep A side, he's doing great stuff. I mean, the 355 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:36,399 Speaker 1: Obama era of regulations on the environment, we're just it 356 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 1: was just all pushed by this crazy quasi religious belief 357 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:46,159 Speaker 1: on climate change, and it's just it's nonsense, right. It 358 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 1: just slows down industry, it hurts us. Everybody wants clean air, 359 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:52,679 Speaker 1: everybody wants clean water. It's not about that. This is 360 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 1: other stuff. This is about government regulation and control of 361 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:59,399 Speaker 1: your day to day lives because of this narrative that 362 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:02,680 Speaker 1: the world is the world is literally coming to an 363 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 1: end because of c O two in the air. It 364 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,639 Speaker 1: is when you just just step back from all the 365 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:14,159 Speaker 1: noise and all the politics, it's a crazy thing to believe. 366 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 1: It is more rational to be worried about the prospect 367 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 1: of a large asteroid hitting the Earth and killing all 368 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 1: life in it. That actually has happened, right, that that 369 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,439 Speaker 1: we could face again. We are not going to have 370 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:29,119 Speaker 1: to worry about c O two choking the planet, all right, 371 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:33,440 Speaker 1: it's just not that's that's not a rational belief. But 372 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 1: they're basing policy now on that. So so prud is 373 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 1: rolling back all kinds of things. The e P A, 374 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:43,479 Speaker 1: the abadministration did bad stuff, and that makes me want 375 00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:45,400 Speaker 1: to defend the guy. But then he does some dumb 376 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 1: things and he's you know, taken a little too cozy 377 00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 1: with lobbyists and everything else. Then what you see is 378 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:57,120 Speaker 1: one of these instances that I call politically motivated stalking. 379 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 1: That's what it is, politically motivated staw sing, where somebody 380 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 1: finds a Trump administration official, goes up to that person 381 00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:09,119 Speaker 1: and harasses them in public because they work for the 382 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:12,479 Speaker 1: Trump administration, which is the United States government, folks. I mean, 383 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:15,120 Speaker 1: I think that's getting lost in a lot of these discussions. 384 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:19,159 Speaker 1: This is not Trump's EP administrator. This is the e 385 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:22,640 Speaker 1: P administrator of the United States. Right when you're talking 386 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,440 Speaker 1: about the disrespect shown to the White House press secretary, 387 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 1: or disrespect shown to the attorney general. These are the 388 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: these This is the government we have. You know, you 389 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 1: wake up day in and day out with the government 390 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 1: you have. This is who we've got. And you don't 391 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,080 Speaker 1: have to agree with people. But some respect for the 392 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 1: office would be nice. If you can't manage some respect 393 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 1: for the office, well then at least some basic human 394 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 1: decency would be that would be good. But you know, 395 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:55,400 Speaker 1: you had a woman who was this exactly. She went 396 00:23:55,480 --> 00:24:00,480 Speaker 1: up to uh Scott Prue was at teaism. There's a 397 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:02,360 Speaker 1: place here in d C. I'm here in the swamp. 398 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:07,400 Speaker 1: So I'm all these swamp cases of the politically motivated 399 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 1: stalking that come up. I'm like, oh that place. I 400 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:12,200 Speaker 1: walked past that place yesterday. Right, I'm here, I'm I'm 401 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 1: among I'm among the crazies. And a woman was ranked. 402 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,200 Speaker 1: This is from the Washington Post. Wrangler two year old 403 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,120 Speaker 1: into his seat waiting for her pancake. A thirty thirty 404 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:30,200 Speaker 1: three year old teacher. She saw the EP administrator um 405 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 1: and somebody with this woman, This teacher named last named Mink. 406 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:41,440 Speaker 1: She saw the climate change skeptic turned environmental chief. As 407 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:44,280 Speaker 1: it says here in the Washington Post and decided to 408 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:49,920 Speaker 1: go across and and accost him. All right, and this 409 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 1: is and then and then she you know, she videotaped 410 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 1: this too, and this is how it went play clip 411 00:24:53,640 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 1: one count. This is my son. He loves animals where 412 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 1: he wants your air water. Meanwhile, you're slashing sails for 413 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 1: cars and trucks for the best racially played. You've been 414 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 1: hanging out her names Mexican while her jerky stands hedn't 415 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:28,359 Speaker 1: deserve psibody. Who actually does to protect our environment? Somebody 416 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:31,159 Speaker 1: who believes in climate change and keep it seriously benefit 417 00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:34,520 Speaker 1: all of us from her children. Um, he's all I 418 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:40,720 Speaker 1: would urge to resign before your scandals show ye urging 419 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:43,720 Speaker 1: him twos. Now, I will say that she spelled that 420 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 1: was an after action where she was taking it a 421 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 1: pawn herself. Uh to tell everybody what she said to him, right, 422 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 1: that was kind of her her version. It sounds like 423 00:25:55,200 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 1: she was reasonably uh i'd I mean, she she wasn't 424 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:04,720 Speaker 1: overly aggressive. Pebba will say it that way. You know 425 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:11,000 Speaker 1: she's but it's annoying. It's just annoying. It's not a 426 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,159 Speaker 1: it's not a cool thing to do. It's not. I 427 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 1: don't think it's a respectful thing to do. It really 428 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,920 Speaker 1: bothers me. And it's a trend. You did not see 429 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,880 Speaker 1: this during the Obama years. You know, you didn't see 430 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 1: it during the Obama years. After it was clear that 431 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 1: Obama completely and utterly lied, straight up lied to the 432 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:30,120 Speaker 1: American people on if you like your health care plan, 433 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,119 Speaker 1: you can keep your health care plan. That was an 434 00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 1: intentional lie to fool people so that they would not 435 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 1: oppose a legislative action that Obama was pushing for that 436 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 1: would bear his name. It was the worst kind of 437 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:46,360 Speaker 1: life for a politicians, the kind of lie that affects 438 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 1: you and your day to day life. Nobody was tracking 439 00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:55,399 Speaker 1: down the different Obama figures involved in that and harassing them. 440 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:58,399 Speaker 1: We don't do that. You know. There was this huge 441 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 1: surge of of political activism with the Tea Party. I 442 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,440 Speaker 1: remember I really came into media at the height of 443 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 1: the Tea Party. Um that was right what or right 444 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 1: around then. It was right after the mid terms when 445 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:15,679 Speaker 1: the Tea Party had swept into power and or had 446 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,680 Speaker 1: put in power. Tea Party back candidates, you know what 447 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 1: I mean. Made it sound like the Tea Party one 448 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 1: and some kind of a coup, like we are in charge. 449 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:26,040 Speaker 1: But but I can't even that. And I just remember 450 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 1: there are all these huge rallies, all the stuff going on. 451 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:33,160 Speaker 1: But it wasn't about individual harassment, wasn't about being nasty 452 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 1: to people. Was it about tracking down uh, you know 453 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 1: Valerie Jared or David axel Rod or you know Jay 454 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 1: Carney or any of these people and being mean to 455 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:46,679 Speaker 1: them as a means of trying to express some kind 456 00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 1: of a political view. And I really do think that 457 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 1: you saw that the difference between those who become politically 458 00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:57,240 Speaker 1: active on the left and those who are politically active 459 00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 1: on the right. We just approached the things differently. We 460 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:05,200 Speaker 1: view this as a part of our duty of citizens. 461 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:10,159 Speaker 1: And but there's always a restraint in our respect for 462 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 1: our fellow Americans in our political discourse. It's just not 463 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:16,359 Speaker 1: mirrored on the other side. They just don't agree that 464 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 1: they act like maniacs. This woman brings over to your daughter. 465 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:22,359 Speaker 1: You know, this is such a This is another thing 466 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 1: that you see on the left you don't see on 467 00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:29,000 Speaker 1: the right. Using kids as political props. This is a 468 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:32,199 Speaker 1: favorite tactic on the left, whether it's using kids at 469 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 1: the border and their plight in order to ram through 470 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 1: what is effectively an open borders policy. Right, Oh, just 471 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 1: let everybody into the interior of the United States. Don't 472 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 1: worry about it. Oh, if you don't, if you don't 473 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 1: agree with that, you must not like crying children, um, 474 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 1: the kids at the Parkland shooting, using them to push 475 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 1: a gun control agenda. And now you just have people 476 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:58,960 Speaker 1: that will write and it's become pretty widely mocked by 477 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:05,240 Speaker 1: conservatives because you'll have writers for some big newspaper, you know, 478 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 1: one of the big left wing media outlets, and they'll say, 479 00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,360 Speaker 1: you know, my, my, my five year old daughter came 480 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 1: up to me and said, what's going to happen to 481 00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 1: the constitutional precedent of Roe v. Wade when this this 482 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,960 Speaker 1: monster of jurisprudence in the mold of Scalia overturns it. 483 00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 1: They'll share this publicly. It's like, you know, I don't 484 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:26,560 Speaker 1: think you're five year old said that. I don't think 485 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 1: that that's I don't think that's the thing that happened. 486 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 1: But you know, this woman brings her two year old 487 00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 1: with her, and it's not enough for her to just say, Hey, 488 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:36,240 Speaker 1: I'm an adult and I disagree with you. It's like 489 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 1: you know, here's my two year old. My two year 490 00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 1: old likes clean air and clean water and animals. It's like, lady, 491 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 1: we all like clean air, clean water, and animals. But 492 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 1: her mind has been poisoned against prude and against this administration. 493 00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 1: You notice she didn't come up that she has. She 494 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:54,120 Speaker 1: has no idea what she's talking about. And this is 495 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 1: what you see with all these activists. They hear things, 496 00:29:57,160 --> 00:30:00,320 Speaker 1: they hear phrases. They are being mobilized in a nsky 497 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 1: i'd fashion by placards and memes and social media hashtags 498 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 1: and phrases and rage on TV and the virtue signaling 499 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 1: that you see everywhere on social media. But she didn't 500 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 1: she she didn't go off to him and say, well, 501 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 1: you know, this is really up. This is up. This 502 00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: regulation let's say that deals with uh, you know, cold 503 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,400 Speaker 1: uh coal power plants. I'd really like you to reconsider 504 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:27,280 Speaker 1: this because I'm concerned about the damage that will do 505 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:31,680 Speaker 1: uh to the you know, to the environment in West 506 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 1: Virginia for people in the air quality there. That's like 507 00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 1: what a serious person would say. Whether you agree with 508 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 1: or disagree that, but that's at least a discussion to 509 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:42,600 Speaker 1: be had, not you know, you're selling out for interest. 510 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 1: You don't care about cleaner you don't care about clean water. 511 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 1: It's just a caricature. And what you find increasingly is 512 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 1: that one of the reasons the left is so angry 513 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 1: and so mad is the only version of the right 514 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 1: that they can intellectually tangle with is a caricature. It 515 00:30:55,800 --> 00:31:01,160 Speaker 1: is a It is a giant wrestle main with straw men. 516 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 1: That's what we're up against now, or that's what they're 517 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 1: up against. The borrow from Churchill. There are pyromaniacs in 518 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,440 Speaker 1: a field of straw men that they're not looking at 519 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 1: the country as it is and as it's actually being 520 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:21,120 Speaker 1: handled by the Trump administration. They have this contorted, cartoonist 521 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 1: view of what's going on, and that's why they'll go 522 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:25,360 Speaker 1: up and harass people and say things to people that 523 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 1: are just you know, this woman looks she she didn't 524 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,360 Speaker 1: call you know, she didn't curse you. I I will 525 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 1: give her some credit for not being a complete moron. 526 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 1: But you know, the guy can't have a You can't 527 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 1: go to teas m in d c here and have 528 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:41,960 Speaker 1: a drink or have have tea whatever it was he 529 00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 1: was doing, got to be harassed there are so many ways. 530 00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:47,480 Speaker 1: You can tweet at him, you can email him, you 531 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 1: can write his people, you can write him emails. But 532 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 1: now you see him, and you see everybody seems to 533 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 1: think that their opinion is the one that gets to 534 00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 1: determine national policy. Their feelings the ones that have to 535 00:31:57,240 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 1: be heard by national level politicians. It does and work 536 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 1: that way, It just doesn't. You can share your thoughts, 537 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 1: but you cannot force your thoughts. And this showing up 538 00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:13,840 Speaker 1: and berating people in public is a childish tantrum in 539 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 1: the guise of political engagement. That's what it is. Eight 540 00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 1: four four eight to five, eight four four nine, buck 541 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:29,000 Speaker 1: much more show, Come and stay with me. Do you 542 00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 1: consider yourself today proudly be an American? Oh? Boy, that's 543 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 1: a question. No. No, not in the America we have 544 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 1: right now. I'm not proud. Now are you proud to 545 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 1: be an American? Definitely not. No, I'm not proud of America. 546 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 1: I'm not proud of what weirds, what we've done. I 547 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:49,200 Speaker 1: think we need to stop thinking that we're the best 548 00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 1: nation on earth, because that's just egotistical and it's not accurate. 549 00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 1: Pretty great, though, we're closed, really comes down to it. 550 00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:00,120 Speaker 1: I feel like it's more just like a tool to 551 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 1: be used to get people to join the army. And 552 00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 1: what what about America right now? Would you consider yourself 553 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:09,160 Speaker 1: not proud of I mean, I think the answer is 554 00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:12,440 Speaker 1: pretty obvious. Um, It's like at the news there's a 555 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:16,479 Speaker 1: platfora of things that are going wrong, orphan border issues. 556 00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:19,040 Speaker 1: So were you not proud? And Obama did it five 557 00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:24,040 Speaker 1: years ago? I think that it's different now. A lot 558 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 1: of the not proud of being an American comes from, 559 00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 1: like the history of the US. Any places that come 560 00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:31,479 Speaker 1: to mind that would be better better than the US. 561 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 1: Probably some nice little socialist country in Europe had tip 562 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 1: campus reform for that video. You know who wants to guess? 563 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 1: I mean, if we had, if we had to just 564 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:45,960 Speaker 1: put it out there. How many of those college kids 565 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 1: do you think are Democrats that are not proud of you? 566 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:51,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get the ones that said they're not proud 567 00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 1: of this country? Are not proud to be an American? 568 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 1: Our democrats. This is a big cultural divide you have this. 569 00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:04,960 Speaker 1: You know, on the right, people are proud to be Americans. 570 00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 1: On the left, people are proud to think they're better 571 00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,000 Speaker 1: than America and that they are the only ones who 572 00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:16,640 Speaker 1: can fix it. It's very important psychological separation between right 573 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 1: and left in this country. And and look, it's just true. 574 00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:21,920 Speaker 1: Patriotism isn't cool on the left the same way it 575 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 1: is in the right. You know, support for the military 576 00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:27,880 Speaker 1: is not as widespread and universal on the left as 577 00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:30,400 Speaker 1: there's in the right. You find somebody who doesn't support 578 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:33,719 Speaker 1: our military or or has anti military sentiment, I'll show 579 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 1: you somebody who, if they vote, votes Democrats. I have 580 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:39,799 Speaker 1: never in my life actually met a conservative who was like, yeah, 581 00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:41,880 Speaker 1: I don't support the military. Right think the military is 582 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:44,839 Speaker 1: not And never I've met plenty of Democrats who think 583 00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 1: that we're you know, uh, we're al Qaeda's air force 584 00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 1: in Syria and we're doing all kinds of terrible stuff 585 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:54,960 Speaker 1: here and there, and you actually al Qaida's effort. I 586 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:56,440 Speaker 1: think that might have been a rand pau comment now 587 00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 1: that I think about it, that was in a specific 588 00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:03,600 Speaker 1: policy context. Strike that from my barrage of commentary there. 589 00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:05,239 Speaker 1: For a second point I'm making is that the left 590 00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:09,840 Speaker 1: is predisposed to be much more critical of this country 591 00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:15,959 Speaker 1: and also predisposed to view, uh, presupposed to view what's 592 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:18,680 Speaker 1: going on here as a function. You know, do you 593 00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:20,759 Speaker 1: love America? Are you proud of this country? I mean 594 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:23,959 Speaker 1: fourth julyes tomorrow? You and I say yes. That didn't 595 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:26,760 Speaker 1: change when Obama was president. I did not love this country. 596 00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:29,240 Speaker 1: I did not think this was amazing. I didn't cease 597 00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:33,400 Speaker 1: to feel incredibly lucky to be an American because Obama 598 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:35,720 Speaker 1: was president. I thought that I wasn't a very good president. 599 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:38,000 Speaker 1: But it's temporary and we got through it, and you know, 600 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:40,920 Speaker 1: we're all gonna be fine. On the left though, now 601 00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:43,520 Speaker 1: it's they it's not just that they don't like Trump. 602 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:47,680 Speaker 1: They don't like America because of Trump. And this is 603 00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:51,400 Speaker 1: a widespread sentiment. You have way more people on the 604 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:54,399 Speaker 1: right who are proud of proud to be American than 605 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:56,880 Speaker 1: you have on the left. And it is indicative of 606 00:35:57,080 --> 00:36:01,520 Speaker 1: much larger ideological and culture role trends, ones that we 607 00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:05,400 Speaker 1: should not just pass over and ignore. Um. You know, 608 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:07,360 Speaker 1: why is that the case? What has to do with 609 00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:11,920 Speaker 1: the fundamental views of right and left? About our views 610 00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:14,759 Speaker 1: in this Our views are role in society or role 611 00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:18,160 Speaker 1: in America?

And that was not good. It's not good, is, 664 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:13,759 Speaker 1: by the way, what I have. No, I'm guessing d 665 00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:16,920 Speaker 1: C because everything. The only thing that's allowed here is communism. 666 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 1: Every everything is banned in d C. But like you're 667 00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 1: a Pennsylvania guys, pennsyl. I think Pennsylvania is one of 668 00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:25,680 Speaker 1: those states where New Yorkers will drive to it like, 669 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:29,360 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, they sell so many fireworks. You're right, 670 00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:32,640 Speaker 1: you're allowed by the Pennsylvania I believe. So. Yeah, uh yes, 671 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:36,120 Speaker 1: I've seen the five fireworks here at Billboards when I'm 672 00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:38,719 Speaker 1: driving that because I think in New York it's not 673 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:40,439 Speaker 1: even I don't think you can do it. I don't 674 00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:42,040 Speaker 1: think you do it, you know, the close thing to 675 00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:44,200 Speaker 1: get too fireworks? Remember those little snap things used to 676 00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:47,719 Speaker 1: throwing your kid snap things like you know you throw 677 00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:51,480 Speaker 1: those What was that all about? I used to I 678 00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:53,600 Speaker 1: used to love those things, man, run around throw them. 679 00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:56,000 Speaker 1: I think they got banned from my school. They also 680 00:39:56,080 --> 00:40:00,160 Speaker 1: been slap bracelets, which was a period of time time 681 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:04,120 Speaker 1: when every like adolescent guy that I you know, adolescent 682 00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:06,000 Speaker 1: male I knew, was like, I'm gonna wear a I'm 683 00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:08,920 Speaker 1: gonna wear a neon pink slap bracelet. We didn't really 684 00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:11,879 Speaker 1: think much about maybe this is a sharpened metal thing 685 00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:13,520 Speaker 1: that you should be careful with, because you know, they 686 00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:15,600 Speaker 1: started breaking. Do people even know? What? Do you remember 687 00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:18,560 Speaker 1: slap bracelets? It was a phenomenon for a while. It's 688 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:20,560 Speaker 1: a piece of metal that they would paint and you 689 00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:22,640 Speaker 1: would slap it over your wrists. You know I'm talking about, 690 00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:24,759 Speaker 1: And don't I generally stayed away the things that were 691 00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:30,000 Speaker 1: neon though. Yeah, I'm just saying it, you know, you know, hey, hey, alright, 692 00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:35,799 Speaker 1: style icon quinn. That's that's enough out of you anyway. Yeah, 693 00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:37,760 Speaker 1: I'm just thinking of like the funky oh you remember 694 00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:41,399 Speaker 1: Reebok pumps. I'm really getting into the nostalgia. Now, did 695 00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:44,280 Speaker 1: you answer me honestly here? Did you believe the Reebok 696 00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:46,799 Speaker 1: pumps when you pump them up would help you jump 697 00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:50,560 Speaker 1: a little higher? Um? Because the commercials made it seem 698 00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:54,480 Speaker 1: like they would. Yeah, I kind of I was. I 699 00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 1: tried to convince myself that there was some way that 700 00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:59,560 Speaker 1: it was like air cushing for your foot would help. No. False, 701 00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:03,160 Speaker 1: I still had zero ups, buck could not jump. I 702 00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:05,160 Speaker 1: did play basketball for a while. All right side, let's 703 00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:09,319 Speaker 1: get us thank you Mike for the fireworks expertise. You've 704 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:11,400 Speaker 1: no no fireworks mishaps for you to share with us, 705 00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:13,080 Speaker 1: right like you've never you've never been that kid that 706 00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:15,120 Speaker 1: blew up his garage trying to build a homemade fireworks 707 00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:17,719 Speaker 1: I'm assuming no, no. But I did like four the July, 708 00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:20,680 Speaker 1: and I did like fireworks because usually, yeah, that's accompanied 709 00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:23,080 Speaker 1: by burgers and steaks. And of course you love Fourth 710 00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:24,680 Speaker 1: of July because you work on this show and you 711 00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:28,080 Speaker 1: love America. Of course this is That's the only I mean, 712 00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:31,239 Speaker 1: when we get resumes, they basically better say at the top, 713 00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:34,759 Speaker 1: like I love America or else. There's no no chance. 714 00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:36,520 Speaker 1: I didn't even know my resume was us an American flag. 715 00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:41,640 Speaker 1: That's all I sentence, That's all you needed. Obviously worked there, alright, 716 00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:45,040 Speaker 1: So let's get into the latest tier on the Trump 717 00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:49,799 Speaker 1: administration doing something else. It's gonna upset people who are 718 00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:54,239 Speaker 1: worried about the erasing of the Obama legacy. H And 719 00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:57,759 Speaker 1: but this also ties into the judicial nominee situation and 720 00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:00,440 Speaker 1: what's gonna happen there, And as a a lot of 721 00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:01,920 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff here, A lot of stuff here. 722 00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:05,160 Speaker 1: So as some of you, well, I guess all of 723 00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:07,400 Speaker 1: you who listen to the show, no, I think that 724 00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:13,080 Speaker 1: affirmative action as it is currently enacted. I mean, affirmative 725 00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:25,040 Speaker 1: action as it stands today is constitutionally, ethically and logically indefensible. Indefensible. 726 00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:27,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I know how they defend it. They'll say, oh, 727 00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:33,279 Speaker 1: but it's about it's about diversity, you know, diversity, and 728 00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:37,319 Speaker 1: when you know, when there's there's more diversity, and that's all. 729 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:39,080 Speaker 1: It's just like they repeat the same word. That's it. 730 00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:42,320 Speaker 1: You say, well, what does that even mean? Diversity of what? 731 00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:45,440 Speaker 1: What's the proper amount of diversity? What what's going on here? 732 00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:48,919 Speaker 1: And and over time, if you look at decisions, because 733 00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:50,800 Speaker 1: remember this and and don't let them get away with this. 734 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:57,800 Speaker 1: Affirmative action is is not about from uh predominantly anymore. 735 00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:01,719 Speaker 1: It's not about making up for the legacy of slavery. 736 00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:06,239 Speaker 1: It's not about uh, you know, kind of an emergency, 737 00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:11,160 Speaker 1: short term legislative action to help African Americans in this 738 00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:19,480 Speaker 1: country after centuries of discrimination, actual legal discrimination, right, I mean, 739 00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:22,480 Speaker 1: and and the ownership of human beings is property. That 740 00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:26,279 Speaker 1: was the initial But affirmative action now is Look, I'm 741 00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:28,959 Speaker 1: gonna I'll tell you some stories. Affirmative action is people 742 00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:35,840 Speaker 1: getting into Stanford who have blonde hair and blue eyes 743 00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:39,160 Speaker 1: and claimed to be from Polynesia based on like some 744 00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:43,400 Speaker 1: great aunt somewhere or something. You know. A case that 745 00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:46,360 Speaker 1: I know about affirmative action now is a friend of 746 00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:49,680 Speaker 1: mine applying to Harvard claiming that she was in fact 747 00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:55,400 Speaker 1: African American and being told that she was not because 748 00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:59,200 Speaker 1: she was born in Egypt and while Egypt is Africa 749 00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:02,800 Speaker 1: and there or she had adopted America, she had become American. 750 00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:07,719 Speaker 1: But you know, she claimed this uh hyphenated nationality of 751 00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 1: being actually African and then American. They did not buy that. 752 00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:13,840 Speaker 1: That that did not flo I mean, you look at 753 00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:16,879 Speaker 1: all these different ways the system is being abused now 754 00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:21,200 Speaker 1: and people are trying to game the system, and that's 755 00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:23,000 Speaker 1: what this is now. People are gaming the system left 756 00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:25,400 Speaker 1: and right. And you know, no whatever comes up with 757 00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:29,360 Speaker 1: an explanation for me of why is just just putting 758 00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:31,560 Speaker 1: this ound there like on my freshman floor. And I 759 00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:33,400 Speaker 1: can only speak from my own experience in college with 760 00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:35,279 Speaker 1: what I saw, But you know, we had, uh, we 761 00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:40,960 Speaker 1: we had students from all kinds of different backgrounds, but 762 00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:44,200 Speaker 1: there was clearly an effort underway to even just bring 763 00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:46,759 Speaker 1: in more international students, like that's going to make our 764 00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:49,560 Speaker 1: school a better place. And I kind of felt like, 765 00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:52,080 Speaker 1: and when I mean bringing more to the national students, 766 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:55,400 Speaker 1: I mean that's a leg up in the admissions process. 767 00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:58,600 Speaker 1: If you apply from a country what they don't have somebody, 768 00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:02,960 Speaker 1: if you happen to be, you know, the the one 769 00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:09,759 Speaker 1: applicant from Eritrea, you're probably getting in. And I sit 770 00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:12,239 Speaker 1: down and I'm like, I mean, look at least I 771 00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:14,680 Speaker 1: guess it's a different background. But do we really want 772 00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:18,080 Speaker 1: to a lot of America I'm talking about selective institutions, 773 00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:21,040 Speaker 1: selective universities, they really want to do that? Why is 774 00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:24,279 Speaker 1: don't we want to have the most Americans we can 775 00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:27,080 Speaker 1: graduating from American schools. I will also tell you this 776 00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:32,640 Speaker 1: doesn't get much attention, but foreign nationals getting into UH 777 00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:37,040 Speaker 1: the top programs at places like Harvard and M I. 778 00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:39,880 Speaker 1: T and and then going back to places like China 779 00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:45,279 Speaker 1: is a national security concern. Okay, we have the best 780 00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:49,120 Speaker 1: universities in the world, and we are training our competition. 781 00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:55,160 Speaker 1: In many cases, you know, these schools overwhelmingly disregard any 782 00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 1: notion of patriotism or dare I say nationalism in their 783 00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:01,880 Speaker 1: admissions processes. I think that's a problem. And now bringing 784 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:06,239 Speaker 1: back into the affirmative action discussion, UH affirmative action now 785 00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:08,840 Speaker 1: applies to and this is from the admissions product. Like 786 00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:11,319 Speaker 1: I I've I will tell you I had it out 787 00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:13,520 Speaker 1: once with the admissions director of a school because it 788 00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:16,080 Speaker 1: wasn't about me, but on a on a personal note, 789 00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:18,279 Speaker 1: somebody they did not take. That was it was just 790 00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:20,320 Speaker 1: an outrage that they didn't take somebody. And I actually 791 00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:22,719 Speaker 1: got the admissions director of a very selective and and 792 00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:24,520 Speaker 1: we just had it out on the phone. I wish 793 00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:26,680 Speaker 1: to this day have been fun if I could have 794 00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:33,480 Speaker 1: recorded the conversation. But the buck went wild, and but 795 00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:37,520 Speaker 1: I had friends on the admissions committees of UH at 796 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:39,200 Speaker 1: least a couple of friends of the missions committee of 797 00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:42,960 Speaker 1: a major university and Ivy League university. And also so 798 00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:45,880 Speaker 1: I speak of what I know on this all right, 799 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:47,800 Speaker 1: and and they all play these games. If that's not 800 00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:51,520 Speaker 1: how and we have no breath. They keep the the 801 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:54,879 Speaker 1: inner workings of these admissions committees like it's a black 802 00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:58,600 Speaker 1: box that no one's allowed to peek into. And I 803 00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:00,880 Speaker 1: would note that you gotta remember, member that for a 804 00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:04,160 Speaker 1: lot of professions, a lot of different industries, it's really 805 00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:07,080 Speaker 1: just a credentialing program. It's all about getting in folks. 806 00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:09,960 Speaker 1: What you do there, unfortunately doesn't really matter. That's why 807 00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:11,560 Speaker 1: you get all these people that go to Brown that 808 00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:13,480 Speaker 1: don't get grades, that come out and think that their 809 00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:15,600 Speaker 1: geniuses because I went to an Ivy League school and 810 00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:18,000 Speaker 1: you're like, well, it's really full of a bunch of 811 00:47:18,400 --> 00:47:21,680 Speaker 1: rich hippies who don't do anything for four years. I'm 812 00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:23,120 Speaker 1: gonna get yelled at for that one, I know, but 813 00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:25,800 Speaker 1: it's true. It's true. The two schools. I like to 814 00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:27,640 Speaker 1: make fun of a Brown and Cornell just because I 815 00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:29,120 Speaker 1: know a lot of people that want to both and 816 00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:32,719 Speaker 1: they deserve to be made fun of UH. So, you know. 817 00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:36,080 Speaker 1: But the way the system breaks down is that this 818 00:47:36,280 --> 00:47:39,120 Speaker 1: is now, as Scalia put it, it's turned into a 819 00:47:39,239 --> 00:47:42,920 Speaker 1: racial spoil system that some their favorite groups put aside 820 00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:46,400 Speaker 1: for just for the time being. Although it's a discussion 821 00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:49,320 Speaker 1: on its own, a firm of action for UH, for 822 00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:52,440 Speaker 1: black Americans, right, put that aside from them because it 823 00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:57,560 Speaker 1: extends to Native Americans, it extends to Hispanics and Latinos. 824 00:47:58,360 --> 00:48:01,279 Speaker 1: It is against Asians. And that's It's not that the 825 00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:06,280 Speaker 1: Trump administration is going to be tearing down affirmative action. 826 00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:08,680 Speaker 1: It's that a bunch of Asians who have come together 827 00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:11,960 Speaker 1: who are like, hey, why are we being discriminated against 828 00:48:12,360 --> 00:48:14,880 Speaker 1: in these schools just because you have some notion of 829 00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:19,239 Speaker 1: diversity that we don't fit into. It's still discrimination, It's 830 00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:22,799 Speaker 1: not okay. So a bunch of high achieving Asians are 831 00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:26,719 Speaker 1: the ones who are actually going to tear down the 832 00:48:28,080 --> 00:48:30,400 Speaker 1: edifice of affirmative action in this country, I think in schools. 833 00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:33,240 Speaker 1: But this is important has implications for government hiring, government 834 00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:36,680 Speaker 1: contracting as well, and it will be yet another instance 835 00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:40,399 Speaker 1: of the Left losing the source of of political power 836 00:48:40,480 --> 00:48:43,680 Speaker 1: and patronage. A lot of people really like affirmative action. 837 00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:47,200 Speaker 1: They support Democrats because of a firm of action I 838 00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:49,520 Speaker 1: have even mentioned. I got all fired up about this. 839 00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:53,279 Speaker 1: What the the the news tie in here is that 840 00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:58,239 Speaker 1: the Obama administration laid out these guidelines, laid out these 841 00:48:58,239 --> 00:49:02,040 Speaker 1: guidelines for more or less how to get away with 842 00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:07,640 Speaker 1: doing racial balancing using quotas without actually using quotas, because 843 00:49:07,680 --> 00:49:10,879 Speaker 1: quotas are not allowed. That has been the Screme Court said, 844 00:49:10,920 --> 00:49:13,440 Speaker 1: you can have quotas. You can't say we're taking ten 845 00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:16,560 Speaker 1: of our class will be black, of our class will 846 00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:20,400 Speaker 1: be Asian, etcetera, etcetera. You can't do that. But if 847 00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:22,279 Speaker 1: you look at the schools year in, year out, they 848 00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:25,880 Speaker 1: have basically the same number of people these different backgrounds. Oh, 849 00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:29,080 Speaker 1: isn't that curious? Yeah, that's quite a lucky we have 850 00:49:29,160 --> 00:49:31,719 Speaker 1: place like Harvard has twenty or thirty thousand applicant between 851 00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:34,560 Speaker 1: twenty and thirty thousand applications year, I forget the exact number. Now, 852 00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:37,960 Speaker 1: it's kind of strange that they have basically, within within 853 00:49:38,040 --> 00:49:41,120 Speaker 1: a percentage point or two, the same number of Black students, 854 00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:43,960 Speaker 1: the same number of Latino students year in and year out. 855 00:49:45,600 --> 00:49:48,879 Speaker 1: That's just because the applicant pool is or or maybe 856 00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:55,960 Speaker 1: are they engaged in some dishonest stealth quota. Ah, that's 857 00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:58,400 Speaker 1: what they're doing. So the Obama administration put out this, 858 00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:04,719 Speaker 1: these guidelines, under these these Affirmative Action policy document, guidelines 859 00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:09,200 Speaker 1: that told colleges and universities how to use race and 860 00:50:09,239 --> 00:50:12,359 Speaker 1: emissions processes and essentially not run a foul of the law. 861 00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:18,439 Speaker 1: But Jeff Sessions, my main man, I lacked but very much. 862 00:50:19,239 --> 00:50:23,239 Speaker 1: He he's out there and he cited improper rulemaking. He 863 00:50:23,320 --> 00:50:25,400 Speaker 1: has said about this quote, the American people deserve to 864 00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:28,680 Speaker 1: have their voices heard and a government that is accountable 865 00:50:28,719 --> 00:50:32,759 Speaker 1: to them. When issuing regulations, Federal agencies must abide by 866 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:36,000 Speaker 1: constitutional principles and follow the rules set forth by Congress 867 00:50:36,080 --> 00:50:40,200 Speaker 1: and the President. In previous administrations, however, agencies often tried 868 00:50:40,239 --> 00:50:43,399 Speaker 1: to impose new rules on the American people without any 869 00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:46,600 Speaker 1: public notice or comment period, simply by sending a letter 870 00:50:46,680 --> 00:50:49,080 Speaker 1: or posting a guidance document on a website. That's wrong 871 00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:55,560 Speaker 1: and it's not good government. So this but this is 872 00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:59,480 Speaker 1: another way of getting on how this this There's a 873 00:50:59,640 --> 00:51:01,359 Speaker 1: lot at the heart of what's going on in from 874 00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:03,080 Speaker 1: an action right now, which is that race is not 875 00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:06,680 Speaker 1: a major factor in admissions decisions. It is a huge 876 00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:11,080 Speaker 1: factor in admissions decisions at these schools. And because of 877 00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:14,080 Speaker 1: these constructs, the left is created on white privilege and 878 00:51:14,640 --> 00:51:17,960 Speaker 1: you know, his systemic racism, historic racism, all that stuff. 879 00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:21,280 Speaker 1: White people have not been able to make an argument 880 00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:23,319 Speaker 1: without being told, oh, you're just racist and you want 881 00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:27,279 Speaker 1: white privilege, you know. But Asian Americans are the ones 882 00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:31,000 Speaker 1: that the left just has no answer for this. Why 883 00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:35,440 Speaker 1: is it fair under if you're not engaged in racial quotas, 884 00:51:35,480 --> 00:51:37,520 Speaker 1: and this is at the heart of the matter, why 885 00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:43,000 Speaker 1: is it fair for a you know, a son of 886 00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:50,200 Speaker 1: Filipino immigrants applying to Yale University to have much better 887 00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:52,680 Speaker 1: grades and s A T s Than the son of 888 00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:57,560 Speaker 1: you know, let's say, uh, Honduran immigrants to the United States, 889 00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:00,480 Speaker 1: and the Honduran immigrant gets in and the and the 890 00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:03,200 Speaker 1: Filipino immigrant does not, or you know, the son of 891 00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:07,239 Speaker 1: Philippino ormants does not. Why is that fair? What is 892 00:52:07,280 --> 00:52:09,520 Speaker 1: the what is the justification for that? The answers, there 893 00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:11,719 Speaker 1: is no real justification. The answer is the left likes things. 894 00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:13,640 Speaker 1: The left feels like there's some groups that are aggrieved, 895 00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:16,160 Speaker 1: that are oppressed, and they make those distinctions and they 896 00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:18,799 Speaker 1: make those decisions, and they like that power, and they 897 00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:22,399 Speaker 1: don't want to give it up. Trump administration might start 898 00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:24,640 Speaker 1: to chip away at this even more and make them 899 00:52:24,680 --> 00:52:25,880 Speaker 1: give it up. I'll get it a little more that 900 00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:27,440 Speaker 1: I find that. I think it's really important by the 901 00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:30,640 Speaker 1: way Supreme Court pick could play into this as well, 902 00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:35,680 Speaker 1: which would also be I think great affirmative action should 903 00:52:35,680 --> 00:52:39,040 Speaker 1: be illegal, gone done, It had its day, It's over with. 904 00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:41,720 Speaker 1: In fact, Sander Day O'Connor and one of her Supreme 905 00:52:41,760 --> 00:52:46,080 Speaker 1: Court opinions, wrote that basically around now, this is really 906 00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:48,359 Speaker 1: not something we should continue to have. Well, we're there, 907 00:52:48,640 --> 00:52:51,960 Speaker 1: and I say time's up. We'll be right back. You 908 00:52:52,040 --> 00:52:54,759 Speaker 1: have a lot of choices in coffee.

My hip, my shield is held 947 00:55:21,280 --> 00:55:24,080 Speaker 1: in a lofty position. Anyway, Listen, what I think about 948 00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:25,680 Speaker 1: what we were talking about earlier is I think the 949 00:55:25,800 --> 00:55:28,640 Speaker 1: left is an engaged in a sort of attrition warfare. 950 00:55:29,320 --> 00:55:32,680 Speaker 1: So they're wearing down of the wills and they're causing 951 00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:36,440 Speaker 1: increased convolution. If you noticed, everything is just hot to 952 00:55:36,760 --> 00:55:39,000 Speaker 1: comprehend what's going on. And of course the lack of 953 00:55:39,120 --> 00:55:43,560 Speaker 1: ability and that fuels their base and it detracts from 954 00:55:43,719 --> 00:55:47,640 Speaker 1: the will of Trump supporters, right and so, but what 955 00:55:47,719 --> 00:55:50,840 Speaker 1: I really wanted to say is if the open borders 956 00:55:51,040 --> 00:55:54,360 Speaker 1: who results in an inevitable ultimate collapse of the country, 957 00:55:54,400 --> 00:55:57,719 Speaker 1: which I do kind of feel that way myself. What 958 00:55:57,880 --> 00:56:01,239 Speaker 1: do all these politicians and media who were clearly pushing it, 959 00:56:01,360 --> 00:56:02,960 Speaker 1: what did they get out of it? They did? They 960 00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:05,480 Speaker 1: get like a golden parachute escape. But they pot us 961 00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:10,600 Speaker 1: some hierarchy of government that happens in its wake. Right 962 00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:12,640 Speaker 1: do they have Do they have special keys to the 963 00:56:12,719 --> 00:56:16,600 Speaker 1: Suros bunker when America gets overrun and destroyed? No? I 964 00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:19,200 Speaker 1: I uh. I think that they're just thinking about this 965 00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:22,760 Speaker 1: very short term. And in the short term, open borders 966 00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:26,440 Speaker 1: means Democrat votes and Democrat power, and that's all. And 967 00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:30,439 Speaker 1: also the enlarging of the of the state that comes 968 00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:33,759 Speaker 1: along with it, which is something they always want. Right, 969 00:56:33,760 --> 00:56:35,360 Speaker 1: If you have more people that are more dependent on 970 00:56:35,400 --> 00:56:37,520 Speaker 1: the state, you need a bigger state to administer to them. 971 00:56:37,800 --> 00:56:40,239 Speaker 1: Who is the party of the state and for the state, 972 00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:44,200 Speaker 1: the Democrats. So that's that's how they view it, uh. 973 00:56:44,280 --> 00:56:47,240 Speaker 1: And also I think there's a they don't view this rationally. 974 00:56:47,320 --> 00:56:50,440 Speaker 1: It's it's very emotional for them, Kenny, And they've really 975 00:56:50,480 --> 00:56:52,680 Speaker 1: convinced themselves at the poem of the Statue of liberty, 976 00:56:53,040 --> 00:56:55,880 Speaker 1: give me your poor, your non English speaking, you're non vetted, 977 00:56:55,960 --> 00:56:59,560 Speaker 1: and whoever shows up, that's that's the way they should be. 978 00:56:59,760 --> 00:57:02,719 Speaker 1: And that's obviously a approximation of how they think about 979 00:57:02,760 --> 00:57:04,600 Speaker 1: it and what the poem says. But that's where we are. 980 00:57:04,680 --> 00:57:07,279 Speaker 1: Kenny and Boston Shield saw my friend more Coming. The 981 00:57:07,400 --> 00:57:09,800 Speaker 1: Thread is a new hit podcast from Azzi Media that 982 00:57:09,880 --> 00:57:13,279 Speaker 1: explores history surprising connections in order to discover how one 983 00:57:13,360 --> 00:57:16,360 Speaker 1: thing leads to another, like how John Lennon's murder connects 984 00:57:16,400 --> 00:57:19,440 Speaker 1: all the way back to communist leader Vladimir Lenin. Get 985 00:57:19,480 --> 00:57:33,400 Speaker 1: it on iHeart Radio or wherever you listen. He's back 986 00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:35,840 Speaker 1: with you now. Because when it comes to the fight 987 00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:44,000 Speaker 1: for truth, the fuck never stops. So the Democrats are 988 00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:46,080 Speaker 1: still really upset about the fact that Trump is going 989 00:57:46,120 --> 00:57:51,720 Speaker 1: to get a Supreme Court nominee. Um, oh wait, can 990 00:57:51,760 --> 00:57:54,000 Speaker 1: we can we play clip seven please? Here's what Huckaby 991 00:57:54,040 --> 00:57:56,640 Speaker 1: Sanders said. Trump is is looking for for us, go 992 00:57:56,800 --> 00:57:59,440 Speaker 1: to pick place seven. Look, the main thing the president 993 00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:06,000 Speaker 1: is looking or are people that fit the qualifications that 994 00:58:06,160 --> 00:58:10,080 Speaker 1: you would want in a Supreme Court justice, tremendous intellect, 995 00:58:10,640 --> 00:58:14,160 Speaker 1: someone who will stick to upholding the Constitution, and somebody 996 00:58:14,200 --> 00:58:16,960 Speaker 1: who has great judicial temperament. Those are the big things 997 00:58:17,040 --> 00:58:20,720 Speaker 1: the president is looking for in a candidate. Yeah, but 998 00:58:20,760 --> 00:58:22,400 Speaker 1: you see that the thing that the Democrats are looking 999 00:58:22,440 --> 00:58:24,920 Speaker 1: for somebody who will give them what they want, or 1000 00:58:24,960 --> 00:58:28,480 Speaker 1: at least give them the possibility of getting what they 1001 00:58:28,600 --> 00:58:30,920 Speaker 1: want on the most major issues, which is what they 1002 00:58:30,960 --> 00:58:34,040 Speaker 1: have with Kennedy, right. Somebody who is not going to 1003 00:58:34,360 --> 00:58:42,040 Speaker 1: overturn some of the major uh cultural and political shifts 1004 00:58:42,080 --> 00:58:44,760 Speaker 1: that occurred as a result of Supreme Court decisions that 1005 00:58:44,800 --> 00:58:46,360 Speaker 1: in some cases are terrible. By the way, we're gonna 1006 00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:49,760 Speaker 1: have David French, who's lawyer, senior writer National Views, gonna 1007 00:58:49,800 --> 00:58:52,040 Speaker 1: join us in the third hour tonight talk a little 1008 00:58:52,040 --> 00:58:53,520 Speaker 1: bit about what he thinks is going on here and 1009 00:58:53,760 --> 00:58:59,360 Speaker 1: what we can expect from the anti conservative judge opposition 1010 00:58:59,440 --> 00:59:02,160 Speaker 1: out there. But you know, they're just gonna say a 1011 00:59:02,240 --> 00:59:04,320 Speaker 1: lot of really terrible stuff and no one's gonna be 1012 00:59:04,360 --> 00:59:08,120 Speaker 1: held to account for it. And it's all about our 1013 00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:10,720 Speaker 1: team versus their team in their eyes, that's it. There's 1014 00:59:11,080 --> 00:59:15,000 Speaker 1: there's no deference to the Constitution here. It's not about 1015 00:59:15,640 --> 00:59:17,960 Speaker 1: what's best for the country and rule of law in 1016 00:59:18,320 --> 00:59:23,440 Speaker 1: with respect to a system of a system of judicial interpretation. 1017 00:59:23,520 --> 00:59:27,200 Speaker 1: That is not about outcomes, but about the law. They 1018 00:59:27,240 --> 00:59:30,760 Speaker 1: don't want that. They want a super legislature, legislature with 1019 00:59:30,880 --> 00:59:34,680 Speaker 1: at least five votes on it out of nine to 1020 00:59:34,880 --> 00:59:37,960 Speaker 1: give the left what they want things they would never get. 1021 00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:40,840 Speaker 1: Does anyone really think they would have ever gotten abortion? 1022 00:59:40,920 --> 00:59:42,880 Speaker 1: All nine months of a pregnancy in all fifty states 1023 00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:45,320 Speaker 1: in the country. Not never right and never would have happened. 1024 00:59:46,080 --> 00:59:48,000 Speaker 1: There was never a time when Congress would have pushed 1025 00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:50,200 Speaker 1: pushed that there. It's just not gonna happen. Wouldn't have happened. 1026 00:59:50,280 --> 00:59:52,760 Speaker 1: And now here we are it's been the law of 1027 00:59:52,800 --> 00:59:56,240 Speaker 1: the land for decades. Uh. At a stain on the 1028 00:59:57,360 --> 01:00:02,880 Speaker 1: on the moral and ethical conscience or a standard world 1029 01:00:02,920 --> 01:00:06,600 Speaker 1: ethical history of this country, they're gonna say stuff like this. 1030 01:00:06,880 --> 01:00:10,520 Speaker 1: Uh this person over at MSNBC about some of the 1031 01:00:10,560 --> 01:00:14,400 Speaker 1: different justices. Uh. Here, here's what qualifies for political analysis 1032 01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:17,640 Speaker 1: that ms play ten. His list is all people who 1033 01:00:17,760 --> 01:00:21,400 Speaker 1: we we have an understanding are in opposition to Row. 1034 01:00:21,680 --> 01:00:25,520 Speaker 1: You know. Amy Barnett is a went to Notre Dame. 1035 01:00:25,640 --> 01:00:28,400 Speaker 1: She is very Catholics. At a famous moment with a 1036 01:00:28,520 --> 01:00:31,080 Speaker 1: former centaer Al Franken during her hearing is about how 1037 01:00:31,200 --> 01:00:35,400 Speaker 1: she spoke essentially to hate group without really understanding the 1038 01:00:35,480 --> 01:00:41,600 Speaker 1: full um context. There just slander people right, just say 1039 01:00:41,720 --> 01:00:45,800 Speaker 1: say whatever you gotta say to impugne their character, to 1040 01:00:46,040 --> 01:00:49,760 Speaker 1: damage them in public, uh, to find a way to 1041 01:00:51,880 --> 01:00:57,600 Speaker 1: create a perception that there unethical bad people. Whatever they 1042 01:00:57,680 --> 01:01:01,440 Speaker 1: have to say to that end, the will do. And 1043 01:01:01,600 --> 01:01:04,600 Speaker 1: it is deeply troubling to see this going on. It 1044 01:01:04,720 --> 01:01:06,360 Speaker 1: is deeply troubling, and it's gonna get as we know 1045 01:01:06,520 --> 01:01:11,160 Speaker 1: it's it's gonna get much uglier and much much worse. Um. 1046 01:01:11,800 --> 01:01:15,040 Speaker 1: But there's a fundamental principle here, and I want to 1047 01:01:15,080 --> 01:01:17,480 Speaker 1: make sure we establish it. There's something that really does 1048 01:01:17,760 --> 01:01:19,600 Speaker 1: matter about all the Supreme Court stuff, and that is 1049 01:01:19,680 --> 01:01:21,480 Speaker 1: that the Supreme Court is not supposed to be a 1050 01:01:21,560 --> 01:01:26,680 Speaker 1: place where judges sit there and decide what is best 1051 01:01:26,800 --> 01:01:30,160 Speaker 1: for the country. This is where you have the divide 1052 01:01:30,320 --> 01:01:33,360 Speaker 1: in liberal and conservative jurisprunce. It's not about I like 1053 01:01:33,640 --> 01:01:35,640 Speaker 1: this thing. I'm in a position to make this thing 1054 01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:39,160 Speaker 1: happen through the law by changing the law. As a 1055 01:01:39,160 --> 01:01:43,440 Speaker 1: Supreme Court judge, it should be about what is true 1056 01:01:44,920 --> 01:01:49,640 Speaker 1: and what is lawful. Um, here's what dirsh. The dirsh. 1057 01:01:50,600 --> 01:01:51,920 Speaker 1: We haven't had the dirsh on in a while. I 1058 01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:53,720 Speaker 1: kind of want to have the Dirsh on a podcast 1059 01:01:54,000 --> 01:01:56,000 Speaker 1: where I can just talk to him about like the 1060 01:01:56,120 --> 01:01:58,240 Speaker 1: life of Dirsh, you know what I mean. I feel 1061 01:01:58,240 --> 01:02:00,720 Speaker 1: like that would be a good Like, Hey, so, what 1062 01:02:00,880 --> 01:02:02,360 Speaker 1: was really what was it really like on O J's 1063 01:02:02,360 --> 01:02:04,000 Speaker 1: defense team back in the day? You know? How is 1064 01:02:04,040 --> 01:02:05,480 Speaker 1: how was that whole thing going on? A lot of 1065 01:02:05,560 --> 01:02:09,040 Speaker 1: questions I gotta ask, But here's what you said about 1066 01:02:09,080 --> 01:02:14,640 Speaker 1: judicial activism. The president makes these kinds of decisions based 1067 01:02:14,800 --> 01:02:20,080 Speaker 1: on his personal interaction with the individuals more than recommendations. 1068 01:02:20,200 --> 01:02:23,439 Speaker 1: Obviously he's going to take into account the recommendations as well. 1069 01:02:23,800 --> 01:02:28,240 Speaker 1: I hope he's looking for a libertarian conservative, a true 1070 01:02:28,360 --> 01:02:33,560 Speaker 1: conservative who elevates the rights of individual over the power 1071 01:02:33,880 --> 01:02:39,160 Speaker 1: of government. A true conservative also respects precedent, doesn't come 1072 01:02:39,280 --> 01:02:42,120 Speaker 1: to the court with an agenda with a list of 1073 01:02:42,680 --> 01:02:46,560 Speaker 1: issues that he wants to see change. A true conservative 1074 01:02:46,680 --> 01:02:49,640 Speaker 1: is not a judicial activist. So I think he can 1075 01:02:49,800 --> 01:02:53,560 Speaker 1: broaden his base, help unite the country if he picks 1076 01:02:53,680 --> 01:02:57,960 Speaker 1: a true conservative who really believes in liberty and who 1077 01:02:58,040 --> 01:03:00,640 Speaker 1: believes in precedent. That's what true conserv itism is. On 1078 01:03:00,720 --> 01:03:06,200 Speaker 1: the bench, well, I think that Trump's nominees are gonna 1079 01:03:06,200 --> 01:03:09,680 Speaker 1: fit that just five. I think that the people that 1080 01:03:09,720 --> 01:03:14,200 Speaker 1: he's thinking about fall into those categories. And you know, 1081 01:03:14,320 --> 01:03:18,320 Speaker 1: I'm I am hopeful that you know, this is here 1082 01:03:18,400 --> 01:03:22,040 Speaker 1: we are. We're eighteen months into the Trump presidency, and 1083 01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:26,840 Speaker 1: already there are people I know who were cautious about this, 1084 01:03:27,080 --> 01:03:31,080 Speaker 1: maybe cautiously optimistic, or maybe just weren't sold, and they're 1085 01:03:31,160 --> 01:03:36,320 Speaker 1: seeing what is happening here and they're saying, wow, never 1086 01:03:36,360 --> 01:03:38,520 Speaker 1: Trump was a mistake for some of them. I'm not 1087 01:03:38,640 --> 01:03:40,000 Speaker 1: saying all of them feel that way, but I'm gonna 1088 01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:43,400 Speaker 1: feel that way, like maybe I shouldn't have written this 1089 01:03:43,560 --> 01:03:45,880 Speaker 1: off because this will stay with us for a very 1090 01:03:45,960 --> 01:03:47,760 Speaker 1: long time and as I've as I've been saying to you, 1091 01:03:47,840 --> 01:03:51,400 Speaker 1: it has tremendous implications for the future. So look, I 1092 01:03:51,680 --> 01:03:54,720 Speaker 1: don't want to get, you know, too deep into the 1093 01:03:56,240 --> 01:03:57,920 Speaker 1: you know, oh what the judge is and this and 1094 01:03:58,000 --> 01:04:00,760 Speaker 1: that the other thing, because we're gonna this is gonna 1095 01:04:00,800 --> 01:04:03,120 Speaker 1: be the main event, the main show, folks, once it 1096 01:04:03,160 --> 01:04:05,200 Speaker 1: gets into the Senate and you got all these senators 1097 01:04:05,280 --> 01:04:08,240 Speaker 1: and you have you know, Chuck Schumer and all the 1098 01:04:08,320 --> 01:04:11,680 Speaker 1: rest of them trying to you know, I gotta say Lahy. 1099 01:04:12,080 --> 01:04:15,040 Speaker 1: I really I talked about gurgling with Gurgen, but actually 1100 01:04:15,120 --> 01:04:21,760 Speaker 1: Lay so you know, if Grgen is kind of up here, 1101 01:04:22,080 --> 01:04:26,560 Speaker 1: Lay is kind of down. I can't understand the guy 1102 01:04:27,160 --> 01:04:30,760 Speaker 1: city u S. Senator Pat Lay Vermont. He's he's apparently. 1103 01:04:30,840 --> 01:04:32,800 Speaker 1: I think he does pretty well actually in terms of 1104 01:04:33,160 --> 01:04:40,120 Speaker 1: approval ratings. I'm like, what is this guy talking about? 1105 01:04:41,160 --> 01:04:42,720 Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, I feel like being able 1106 01:04:42,760 --> 01:04:45,920 Speaker 1: to communicate effectively should be a necessary prerequisite to be 1107 01:04:45,920 --> 01:04:47,360 Speaker 1: in the Senate. But he's been there a long time, 1108 01:04:47,920 --> 01:04:50,640 Speaker 1: and he has a very prominent, prominent dome. I mean, 1109 01:04:50,800 --> 01:04:54,480 Speaker 1: his he embraces you know, he's he's like me. He's 1110 01:04:54,480 --> 01:04:57,160 Speaker 1: got a seriously large cranium and he just goes with it. 1111 01:04:57,240 --> 01:04:58,880 Speaker 1: You know, he's not trying to do a comb over 1112 01:04:58,960 --> 01:05:03,160 Speaker 1: anything else. Lay owns the Mr clean thing up top, 1113 01:05:03,360 --> 01:05:06,440 Speaker 1: and you know what, some respect for that I got. 1114 01:05:06,560 --> 01:05:09,200 Speaker 1: I gotta go with it. So the judicial thing is 1115 01:05:09,200 --> 01:05:12,320 Speaker 1: going to turn into a lot of a lot of athletes, 1116 01:05:12,360 --> 01:05:13,720 Speaker 1: a lot of back and forthes. You know, we'll follow 1117 01:05:13,760 --> 01:05:16,800 Speaker 1: that more closely, but in the meantime, it's just they're 1118 01:05:16,840 --> 01:05:19,480 Speaker 1: gonna try to make an issue of particularly if it's 1119 01:05:19,880 --> 01:05:22,880 Speaker 1: Amy Barrett. They're gonna make an issue of her Catholicism 1120 01:05:23,640 --> 01:05:26,840 Speaker 1: in a way that we'll be talking about I think 1121 01:05:26,880 --> 01:05:30,160 Speaker 1: for years to come. Uh. There, there's gonna be big, 1122 01:05:30,160 --> 01:05:34,280 Speaker 1: big problems there. Eight four four nine to eight to 1123 01:05:34,520 --> 01:05:39,120 Speaker 1: five eight four Buck, Oh my gosh, we have so 1124 01:05:39,320 --> 01:05:42,800 Speaker 1: much more to discuss, my friends, much more show on 1125 01:05:42,920 --> 01:05:45,640 Speaker 1: the way, and don't forget. You can download the Freedom 1126 01:05:45,680 --> 01:05:49,800 Speaker 1: Hunt podcast on iTunes, are on Stitcher. Just go to 1127 01:05:49,880 --> 01:05:52,400 Speaker 1: the Buck Sexton show. It is in that same feed, folks, 1128 01:05:52,480 --> 01:05:57,680 Speaker 1: it is in that same feed. And oh wait, here, 1129 01:05:57,760 --> 01:05:59,880 Speaker 1: wait a couple of things before I before I go 1130 01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:01,280 Speaker 1: to the next one. I was looking for these for 1131 01:06:01,320 --> 01:06:03,760 Speaker 1: a moment. I was verbally stalling to find this. So 1132 01:06:03,880 --> 01:06:09,840 Speaker 1: here's here's what Trump was saying about that upcoming fight playing. 1133 01:06:09,960 --> 01:06:12,640 Speaker 1: And I think, yes, I think we will go very quickly. 1134 01:06:12,680 --> 01:06:14,480 Speaker 1: I actually believe that a lot of people think it's 1135 01:06:14,520 --> 01:06:17,200 Speaker 1: going to be a very Look, it's probably going to 1136 01:06:17,320 --> 01:06:19,720 Speaker 1: be vicious because the other side all they could do 1137 01:06:19,840 --> 01:06:22,560 Speaker 1: is obstruct and resist. You know, the whole thing is resist. 1138 01:06:23,520 --> 01:06:26,320 Speaker 1: But and maybe someday we'll be able to get along 1139 01:06:26,360 --> 01:06:27,800 Speaker 1: with the other side. I don't know, But right now 1140 01:06:27,880 --> 01:06:29,760 Speaker 1: it's only resists. That's all they want to do is 1141 01:06:29,800 --> 01:06:32,120 Speaker 1: stop things from happening. So they're going to try very hard. 1142 01:06:32,520 --> 01:06:34,320 Speaker 1: But I think it's going to go actually very quickly. 1143 01:06:34,360 --> 01:06:38,920 Speaker 1: If I picked the right person, they're gonna be vicious. 1144 01:06:38,920 --> 01:06:40,760 Speaker 1: I don't think it's gonna go quickly. I like the 1145 01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:43,720 Speaker 1: President's optimism on this, but it is going to be very, 1146 01:06:43,960 --> 01:06:46,880 Speaker 1: very ugly. And I want to just put this out there, 1147 01:06:46,880 --> 01:06:48,160 Speaker 1: and maybe this is one of these things where we 1148 01:06:48,200 --> 01:06:50,960 Speaker 1: should mark this for the show going forward so we 1149 01:06:51,080 --> 01:06:59,080 Speaker 1: have it. Imagine what it feels like if Republicans maintain control. 1150 01:06:59,080 --> 01:07:00,680 Speaker 1: I don't think they're gonna game seats in the House, 1151 01:07:00,720 --> 01:07:03,120 Speaker 1: but imagine what it's like if they maintain control of 1152 01:07:03,200 --> 01:07:06,959 Speaker 1: the House and the Senate two years into the Trump 1153 01:07:07,040 --> 01:07:12,040 Speaker 1: presidency and you get a constitutional conservative on the Supreme Court, 1154 01:07:12,120 --> 01:07:18,080 Speaker 1: a second one all the Supreme Court courtesy of President 1155 01:07:18,120 --> 01:07:21,720 Speaker 1: Donald J. Trump in year all of done in year 1156 01:07:21,920 --> 01:07:24,600 Speaker 1: by a year two of the presidency. What are liberals 1157 01:07:24,640 --> 01:07:27,480 Speaker 1: gonna tell themselves? Then? You know, when, when do you 1158 01:07:27,640 --> 01:07:32,640 Speaker 1: think this iceberg starts to melt of liberal delusion when 1159 01:07:32,720 --> 01:07:38,440 Speaker 1: they have to confront their misconceptions about this country, about themselves, 1160 01:07:38,480 --> 01:07:40,680 Speaker 1: about the popularity of their beliefs and about why people 1161 01:07:40,760 --> 01:07:42,720 Speaker 1: voted for Trump in the first place. I don't know 1162 01:07:42,760 --> 01:07:44,480 Speaker 1: if we're ever going to get there. I don't know, 1163 01:07:44,520 --> 01:07:46,720 Speaker 1: if you know, Mike says no. Mike thinks that they're 1164 01:07:46,800 --> 01:07:49,600 Speaker 1: just is never gonna change. It's never gonna change. Uh, 1165 01:07:50,560 --> 01:07:52,600 Speaker 1: you might be right, man, you know, I think that 1166 01:07:52,720 --> 01:07:56,480 Speaker 1: they there's been a radicalization of the liberal mind that 1167 01:07:57,040 --> 01:08:00,880 Speaker 1: only only through continuous law us is only until we 1168 01:08:00,960 --> 01:08:04,520 Speaker 1: are in fact sick of winning, tired of winning, will 1169 01:08:04,640 --> 01:08:07,080 Speaker 1: that change. And we're aways from that. We've still got 1170 01:08:07,120 --> 01:08:08,600 Speaker 1: a lot of things to accomplish, a lot of things 1171 01:08:08,640 --> 01:08:10,280 Speaker 1: to do. All right now, I really will give you 1172 01:08:10,360 --> 01:08:12,320 Speaker 1: some a second to catch your breath. Eight four four 1173 01:08:12,480 --> 01:08:15,040 Speaker 1: I guess let me catch my breath eight four four 1174 01:08:16,080 --> 01:08:20,880 Speaker 1: to five eight fo buck Uh, David French come up 1175 01:08:20,880 --> 01:08:23,280 Speaker 1: in the next hour. Much more show on the way, 1176 01:08:23,680 --> 01:08:30,200 Speaker 1: stay with me team. We're not going to be threatened 1177 01:08:30,240 --> 01:08:32,439 Speaker 1: by the Democrats. I mean, look, they they're the ones 1178 01:08:32,520 --> 01:08:35,280 Speaker 1: that have all this blood on their hands. They're the 1179 01:08:35,320 --> 01:08:38,640 Speaker 1: ones who have completely destroyed the FBI and d o J. 1180 01:08:39,160 --> 01:08:41,960 Speaker 1: How did they do that? They did that by digging 1181 01:08:42,080 --> 01:08:45,080 Speaker 1: up dirt. The Clinton campaign dug up dirt, put it 1182 01:08:45,160 --> 01:08:47,920 Speaker 1: into a dossier, fed it into the FBI, and the 1183 01:08:48,080 --> 01:08:54,760 Speaker 1: FBI used our counterintelligence capabilities against a political campaign. Is 1184 01:08:54,800 --> 01:08:58,840 Speaker 1: there really any dispute left about that? You know? That 1185 01:08:58,920 --> 01:09:00,559 Speaker 1: seems to be just a stayed in a fact at 1186 01:09:00,600 --> 01:09:03,880 Speaker 1: this point. But Devin Nounez has become something of a 1187 01:09:04,000 --> 01:09:08,639 Speaker 1: boogeyman on the left. They hate new Nets because he's 1188 01:09:08,680 --> 01:09:12,519 Speaker 1: been out there fighting the fight, the good fight on 1189 01:09:12,680 --> 01:09:15,840 Speaker 1: this issue. And you'll notice there's been a bit of 1190 01:09:15,880 --> 01:09:19,360 Speaker 1: a silence on this that. Yeah, that the Cohen flip 1191 01:09:19,560 --> 01:09:23,760 Speaker 1: issue has come operationally because Cohen gave his interview two. 1192 01:09:24,000 --> 01:09:27,479 Speaker 1: Uh what was George Stephanopolis Mike. We don't have any 1193 01:09:27,520 --> 01:09:29,880 Speaker 1: of that audio, handy, do we this the Cohen speaking? 1194 01:09:30,120 --> 01:09:31,720 Speaker 1: I don't know if it was just written interview or 1195 01:09:31,960 --> 01:09:33,760 Speaker 1: I read the transcript of it. Was it written or 1196 01:09:33,880 --> 01:09:37,519 Speaker 1: was it a video interview with Stephanopolis and Cohen? You 1197 01:09:37,560 --> 01:09:39,240 Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about it earlier in the week. 1198 01:09:39,360 --> 01:09:42,560 Speaker 1: I do. Yeah, they do not have a video of it. 1199 01:09:42,880 --> 01:09:45,200 Speaker 1: It was to sit down. I think that was the agreement, 1200 01:09:45,360 --> 01:09:47,960 Speaker 1: just to okay, yeah, so because I remember I read 1201 01:09:48,000 --> 01:09:50,880 Speaker 1: what was said. So you know, everyone's all jumped on 1202 01:09:50,960 --> 01:09:53,120 Speaker 1: this oh, Cohen's gonna flip. And Cohen said stuff like, 1203 01:09:53,760 --> 01:09:58,599 Speaker 1: it's not a witch haunt. I'm not gonna put Trump 1204 01:09:58,640 --> 01:10:01,320 Speaker 1: ahead of my family. Which when you are in the 1205 01:10:01,400 --> 01:10:08,160 Speaker 1: crosshairs of a federal prosecutorial well, I was gonna say, 1206 01:10:08,200 --> 01:10:13,439 Speaker 1: which hunt overreach? You say whatever you gotta say to 1207 01:10:13,479 --> 01:10:16,120 Speaker 1: try to save yourself. Really, that that's what ends up happening, folks. 1208 01:10:16,160 --> 01:10:18,400 Speaker 1: You know, it's kind of like an interrogation. Everybody breaks, 1209 01:10:18,479 --> 01:10:21,000 Speaker 1: just a question when and how when the Feds come 1210 01:10:21,080 --> 01:10:23,320 Speaker 1: after you. You know you're eventually gonna start singing the 1211 01:10:23,360 --> 01:10:24,800 Speaker 1: tune they want you to sing. I mean, maybe you 1212 01:10:24,800 --> 01:10:27,320 Speaker 1: won't say your guilty stuff you didn't do. But if 1213 01:10:27,520 --> 01:10:30,200 Speaker 1: if it's gonna help you to say I think the 1214 01:10:30,240 --> 01:10:32,160 Speaker 1: Feds are doing a great job here, you know, if 1215 01:10:32,200 --> 01:10:35,800 Speaker 1: it's going into your possible plea bargain, then yeah, of course. 1216 01:10:37,040 --> 01:10:40,439 Speaker 1: But everyone's saying Cohen's gonna flip. He's gonna flip, I say, flip. 1217 01:10:40,920 --> 01:10:42,640 Speaker 1: The problem he's gonna have is he has nothing to 1218 01:10:42,720 --> 01:10:46,639 Speaker 1: flip with. Yeah, they want him to flip on Trump, 1219 01:10:46,720 --> 01:10:52,120 Speaker 1: that's very obvious. But what's he gonna say? There was 1220 01:10:52,200 --> 01:10:54,240 Speaker 1: Russia collusion that didn't happen. He can't do that. But 1221 01:10:54,400 --> 01:10:57,760 Speaker 1: if he lies, then he loses any any deal. So 1222 01:10:57,880 --> 01:11:01,160 Speaker 1: he can't make stuff up. Even if he says what 1223 01:11:01,240 --> 01:11:03,080 Speaker 1: they want him to say, you have to wonder what's 1224 01:11:03,080 --> 01:11:05,120 Speaker 1: that even gonna be. We're gonna get back to the 1225 01:11:05,160 --> 01:11:08,840 Speaker 1: Stormy Daniels payoff issue, and you know CNN was covering 1226 01:11:08,880 --> 01:11:10,600 Speaker 1: that almost like the lost plane. I mean it was 1227 01:11:10,680 --> 01:11:15,680 Speaker 1: on twenty four seven, day in, day out. But known 1228 01:11:15,800 --> 01:11:17,599 Speaker 1: is the enemy of truth, so they have no problem 1229 01:11:17,680 --> 01:11:20,880 Speaker 1: with these things. Uh. Mike was just telling me before 1230 01:11:21,360 --> 01:11:24,439 Speaker 1: that they had the woman who was harassing Prude on 1231 01:11:24,520 --> 01:11:26,759 Speaker 1: and she's now a hero. This is what ends up happening. 1232 01:11:26,840 --> 01:11:29,160 Speaker 1: All you have to do is find somebody affiliated with 1233 01:11:29,240 --> 01:11:32,160 Speaker 1: Trump and do a Facebook video of yourself talking about 1234 01:11:32,160 --> 01:11:33,920 Speaker 1: how you curse them out or yelled at them, and 1235 01:11:34,640 --> 01:11:36,560 Speaker 1: you're you're like a celebrity. You know, you need to 1236 01:11:36,600 --> 01:11:39,760 Speaker 1: get an agent to negotiate your book deal. I find 1237 01:11:39,800 --> 01:11:42,760 Speaker 1: it very I find it very distasteful, I must say. 1238 01:11:44,040 --> 01:11:45,880 Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean they're going after Cohen. I saw. 1239 01:11:45,880 --> 01:11:48,120 Speaker 1: I didn't I didn't mentioned earlier in the show, you know, 1240 01:11:48,439 --> 01:11:51,280 Speaker 1: because I feel like this is a story that gets 1241 01:11:51,880 --> 01:11:54,080 Speaker 1: more attention that or it's something it gets more attention 1242 01:11:54,120 --> 01:11:56,000 Speaker 1: than it deserves. It's the way people always take this. 1243 01:11:56,360 --> 01:11:59,400 Speaker 1: Every step in the Muller Probe is treated like, oh, 1244 01:11:59,479 --> 01:12:01,800 Speaker 1: we're right, you know any day now that that other 1245 01:12:01,960 --> 01:12:06,479 Speaker 1: shoe has been waiting to drop four months and months. 1246 01:12:08,439 --> 01:12:11,040 Speaker 1: I just want you all to remember when the day 1247 01:12:11,120 --> 01:12:13,280 Speaker 1: comes to the Molder probe finally is you know, they 1248 01:12:13,360 --> 01:12:15,639 Speaker 1: released their report and the whole thing happens. By the way, 1249 01:12:15,640 --> 01:12:17,719 Speaker 1: I'm gonna talk about the Senate Intel report on Russia 1250 01:12:17,720 --> 01:12:20,559 Speaker 1: at a few moments get the Senate Intel Committee says, oh, 1251 01:12:20,640 --> 01:12:23,240 Speaker 1: we're the Russia conclusions from the Intel community. I'll get 1252 01:12:23,280 --> 01:12:27,400 Speaker 1: into this again. Not something that people are making a 1253 01:12:27,439 --> 01:12:29,920 Speaker 1: bigger deal out of it than it is. But I 1254 01:12:30,000 --> 01:12:32,240 Speaker 1: want you to remember who along this whole process was 1255 01:12:32,320 --> 01:12:34,439 Speaker 1: telling you this isn't what they say it is. It's 1256 01:12:34,479 --> 01:12:38,160 Speaker 1: not going to result in some soft coup against the 1257 01:12:38,160 --> 01:12:41,200 Speaker 1: Trump administration. They're trying it. It's not it's not gonna happen. 1258 01:12:41,360 --> 01:12:44,479 Speaker 1: There's no they're there. And remember who has been running 1259 01:12:44,520 --> 01:12:47,600 Speaker 1: around hair on fire about how Trump was you know, 1260 01:12:47,640 --> 01:12:51,840 Speaker 1: Trump as a trader and worked with Russia. Yeah, like 1261 01:12:52,080 --> 01:12:55,599 Speaker 1: it's it's been discouraging and I have. I have, really, 1262 01:12:55,680 --> 01:12:58,439 Speaker 1: this is the first time in my professional career in media, 1263 01:12:59,080 --> 01:13:02,160 Speaker 1: I have just lost respect for the judgment of people 1264 01:13:02,240 --> 01:13:06,320 Speaker 1: over this one issue. People have gone off the rails 1265 01:13:06,439 --> 01:13:08,720 Speaker 1: with this Russia Trump collusion stuff in a way that 1266 01:13:09,040 --> 01:13:12,640 Speaker 1: I never could have imagined. And I just refused to 1267 01:13:12,680 --> 01:13:16,840 Speaker 1: believe that it's really about belief in some international conspiracy 1268 01:13:16,880 --> 01:13:19,920 Speaker 1: with Trump and other people to try and throw the election. 1269 01:13:20,080 --> 01:13:22,439 Speaker 1: I think it's just a much deeper issue for people. 1270 01:13:22,840 --> 01:13:26,240 Speaker 1: They take Trump's They've taken Trump's election personally. They think 1271 01:13:26,280 --> 01:13:30,599 Speaker 1: it's a repudiation of what they think about themselves, right 1272 01:13:30,720 --> 01:13:33,479 Speaker 1: that now someone is challenging their beliefs in a way 1273 01:13:33,960 --> 01:13:37,760 Speaker 1: that has rattled them, and they're hoping for some panacea. 1274 01:13:38,320 --> 01:13:40,599 Speaker 1: And the panacea in this case would be that Trump 1275 01:13:40,720 --> 01:13:43,400 Speaker 1: is really a Kremlin candidate, that he was run by 1276 01:13:43,439 --> 01:13:47,000 Speaker 1: putting all this other stuff. M It just must be 1277 01:13:47,080 --> 01:13:53,160 Speaker 1: exhausting to keep that hope alive so long in spite 1278 01:13:53,200 --> 01:13:55,160 Speaker 1: of all the facts and everything that we've seen so far. 1279 01:13:55,680 --> 01:13:57,479 Speaker 1: It's got to be tiring after a while. But I 1280 01:13:57,760 --> 01:13:59,960 Speaker 1: feel like, you know, they are going to see it 1281 01:14:00,000 --> 01:14:01,760 Speaker 1: through to the end. I will say that they're gonna 1282 01:14:01,800 --> 01:14:03,840 Speaker 1: stay on this thing, and there's I do not have 1283 01:14:04,040 --> 01:14:08,120 Speaker 1: much faith that there will be any real increase in 1284 01:14:08,320 --> 01:14:10,960 Speaker 1: insanity from the anti Trump left on this Russia stuff. 1285 01:14:11,400 --> 01:14:14,479 Speaker 1: But you know, I feel a guy like Cohen, they're 1286 01:14:14,479 --> 01:14:16,160 Speaker 1: gonna they're gonna get him on something, because it's not 1287 01:14:16,240 --> 01:14:19,240 Speaker 1: that hard to get people. They're gonna find some speak 1288 01:14:19,280 --> 01:14:21,439 Speaker 1: agetting people. Didn't they just Mike, did they just get 1289 01:14:21,520 --> 01:14:25,240 Speaker 1: the what is it? An Rwan? That guy the house 1290 01:14:26,000 --> 01:14:28,439 Speaker 1: work for Debbie Wasserman Schultz, the I T guy he 1291 01:14:28,640 --> 01:14:32,040 Speaker 1: pled to a loan fraud thing, pleaded to a loan 1292 01:14:32,160 --> 01:14:35,200 Speaker 1: fraud thing. I feel like there's more going on. I 1293 01:14:35,240 --> 01:14:36,880 Speaker 1: know there's been a lot of reporting daily College and 1294 01:14:36,960 --> 01:14:39,599 Speaker 1: reporting on that. I gotta dig into a little bit more. 1295 01:14:39,680 --> 01:14:42,439 Speaker 1: Feels like they're just making that go away. This guy 1296 01:14:42,479 --> 01:14:44,320 Speaker 1: who was into some shady stuff and he's just doing 1297 01:14:44,360 --> 01:14:48,439 Speaker 1: a loan fraud charge. M okay, But the Senate Intel 1298 01:14:48,439 --> 01:14:50,360 Speaker 1: Committee report on Russia talk about that for a few 1299 01:14:50,360 --> 01:14:52,360 Speaker 1: minutes coming up. And then we got David French joining 1300 01:14:52,479 --> 01:14:56,880 Speaker 1: on all things Supreme Court.

It's getting a lot of attention to People 1315 01:16:04,920 --> 01:16:07,960 Speaker 1: are like, oh gosh, what does this all mean. Here's 1316 01:16:08,000 --> 01:16:13,400 Speaker 1: the quick and dirty. The Senate Intel Senate Intel Community 1317 01:16:13,840 --> 01:16:18,160 Speaker 1: Committee has been looking at the findings of the intel 1318 01:16:18,160 --> 01:16:24,800 Speaker 1: community in the presidential election that quote, do you they 1319 01:16:24,840 --> 01:16:27,479 Speaker 1: wanted to help Donald Trump? The intelligence community findings were 1320 01:16:27,560 --> 01:16:30,960 Speaker 1: quote accurate and on point, according to an unclassified report 1321 01:16:31,560 --> 01:16:35,040 Speaker 1: and accompanying statement by the Senate Select Committee Intelligence released Tuesday. 1322 01:16:37,240 --> 01:16:43,679 Speaker 1: So they are saying sure enough that yeah, Russia wanted 1323 01:16:43,760 --> 01:16:48,320 Speaker 1: to help Russia wanted to help Trump in the election. 1324 01:16:48,400 --> 01:16:50,400 Speaker 1: This is from the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence. They 1325 01:16:50,479 --> 01:16:54,000 Speaker 1: released this and they go into some stuff about the 1326 01:16:54,040 --> 01:16:56,680 Speaker 1: disputes between FBI, CIA, and n s A. By the way, 1327 01:16:56,760 --> 01:16:59,400 Speaker 1: I used to be a part of these disputes on 1328 01:16:59,439 --> 01:17:02,240 Speaker 1: different NIL products. I've been in the room. I've fought 1329 01:17:02,280 --> 01:17:04,639 Speaker 1: it out with people from different That stuff can get heated, 1330 01:17:04,680 --> 01:17:07,960 Speaker 1: by the way, you can imagine when some bureaucrat feels 1331 01:17:08,000 --> 01:17:11,120 Speaker 1: like the stakes are the national security interests of the 1332 01:17:11,200 --> 01:17:15,280 Speaker 1: United States, you can get very passionate. You can get 1333 01:17:15,400 --> 01:17:21,280 Speaker 1: very sanctimonious too, in some of these inter agency intelligence 1334 01:17:21,320 --> 01:17:25,560 Speaker 1: assessment meetings. I remember things getting real heated on some 1335 01:17:25,760 --> 01:17:30,960 Speaker 1: Irrock related stuff back in the days. You can imagine, so, uh, 1336 01:17:32,040 --> 01:17:33,679 Speaker 1: looking at this now, people are gonna say, oh, gosh, 1337 01:17:33,720 --> 01:17:35,920 Speaker 1: Russia wanted to help Trump. Here's the thing Russia was 1338 01:17:35,960 --> 01:17:38,920 Speaker 1: trying to say chaos. Russia was doing what it has 1339 01:17:38,960 --> 01:17:42,600 Speaker 1: been doing for decades. This you can either make it 1340 01:17:42,800 --> 01:17:46,439 Speaker 1: sound like a really big deal, or you can put 1341 01:17:46,479 --> 01:17:48,120 Speaker 1: it in the proper context, which is this is a 1342 01:17:48,200 --> 01:17:53,360 Speaker 1: continuation of rough Russian provocations against the US and a 1343 01:17:53,439 --> 01:17:55,839 Speaker 1: lot of other countries, by the way, stretching back for decades, 1344 01:17:55,920 --> 01:17:59,080 Speaker 1: This is a way that they pursue what they view 1345 01:17:59,120 --> 01:18:05,200 Speaker 1: as their foreign pe interests by trying to so chaos 1346 01:18:05,320 --> 01:18:09,439 Speaker 1: in the electoral processes of other countries, and chaos made 1347 01:18:09,439 --> 01:18:11,160 Speaker 1: me too strong a word, just to try to gum 1348 01:18:11,280 --> 01:18:16,760 Speaker 1: up the works a little bit and to push those 1349 01:18:16,840 --> 01:18:19,439 Speaker 1: candidates that they feel like, maybe you're more aligned with 1350 01:18:19,560 --> 01:18:23,440 Speaker 1: their interests in some ways on some matters, to downplay 1351 01:18:23,840 --> 01:18:27,519 Speaker 1: or uh engage in propaganda against candidates they don't like. 1352 01:18:27,560 --> 01:18:30,280 Speaker 1: I mean, but they've been doing this forever. I wish 1353 01:18:30,360 --> 01:18:32,679 Speaker 1: they would teach kids in school about what the Soviet 1354 01:18:32,760 --> 01:18:35,200 Speaker 1: Union was really up to and it's ties to the 1355 01:18:35,240 --> 01:18:38,679 Speaker 1: Communist Party USA and all of the different Soviet aigents 1356 01:18:38,680 --> 01:18:43,719 Speaker 1: in this country. Instead you get some five line paragraph about, 1357 01:18:43,720 --> 01:18:45,599 Speaker 1: you know, McCarthy was really bad and he did bad 1358 01:18:45,640 --> 01:18:47,599 Speaker 1: things and he lied about people. It's like, no, McCarthy 1359 01:18:47,680 --> 01:18:53,920 Speaker 1: was actually mostly right, Alger Hiss was a spy, etcetera, etcetera. 1360 01:18:54,000 --> 01:18:55,559 Speaker 1: You go down the line, you see that there were 1361 01:18:55,920 --> 01:18:59,760 Speaker 1: deep and very serious, very senior penetrations in the United 1362 01:18:59,760 --> 01:19:02,400 Speaker 1: States governed by the Communists, and there are a lot 1363 01:19:02,439 --> 01:19:04,680 Speaker 1: of Americans who were Communist fellow travelers and working with 1364 01:19:04,720 --> 01:19:07,519 Speaker 1: the Communist Party. That was a real thing and a 1365 01:19:07,800 --> 01:19:13,559 Speaker 1: very serious national security threat to us. But that's not taught. 1366 01:19:13,600 --> 01:19:15,160 Speaker 1: People don't know about it, and so they see this 1367 01:19:15,280 --> 01:19:18,320 Speaker 1: Russian meddling and they say, oh, my gosh, they're creating 1368 01:19:18,400 --> 01:19:23,360 Speaker 1: Facebook accounts that's say mean things about Hillary among hundreds 1369 01:19:23,439 --> 01:19:27,200 Speaker 1: of millions of Facebook accounts out there. You know, when 1370 01:19:27,240 --> 01:19:29,439 Speaker 1: you start to look at the money that was spent 1371 01:19:29,520 --> 01:19:31,400 Speaker 1: on this, and you look at the Facebook puppets and 1372 01:19:31,560 --> 01:19:34,320 Speaker 1: what what they were, what Russia was actually up to. 1373 01:19:34,800 --> 01:19:36,879 Speaker 1: To call this a drop in the bucket is an overstatement. 1374 01:19:36,920 --> 01:19:38,439 Speaker 1: It was a drop in the ocean. And the notion 1375 01:19:38,520 --> 01:19:40,000 Speaker 1: that this could have moved the electro wom with the 1376 01:19:40,080 --> 01:19:44,120 Speaker 1: other is just fantasy. But also, now you have you 1377 01:19:44,280 --> 01:19:46,160 Speaker 1: can take it beyond that into the what are we 1378 01:19:46,240 --> 01:19:49,160 Speaker 1: what are we really supposed to do about it? How 1379 01:19:49,320 --> 01:19:51,599 Speaker 1: is this really supposed to get dealt with? I asked 1380 01:19:51,680 --> 01:19:53,720 Speaker 1: James Clapper, the former Director of National Intelligence, you know, 1381 01:19:53,800 --> 01:19:56,120 Speaker 1: what do you think? And he's like, well, we should 1382 01:19:56,160 --> 01:20:01,080 Speaker 1: put out a strong statement. Oh okay, we put out 1383 01:20:01,120 --> 01:20:04,320 Speaker 1: a strong statement about Russia, and then we've handled the problem. 1384 01:20:05,000 --> 01:20:06,880 Speaker 1: I don't think that's gonna cut it. I don't think 1385 01:20:06,920 --> 01:20:10,880 Speaker 1: that's gonna do it. How do we stop Russian middling 1386 01:20:10,920 --> 01:20:14,120 Speaker 1: going forward? No one has any idea. You're gonna have 1387 01:20:14,280 --> 01:20:16,760 Speaker 1: more transparency and Facebook accounts. Guess what, Russia will just 1388 01:20:16,760 --> 01:20:19,360 Speaker 1: get more sophisticated about how they set up those Facebook accounts. 1389 01:20:20,840 --> 01:20:23,400 Speaker 1: And if nothing else, one of the best things that 1390 01:20:23,479 --> 01:20:26,960 Speaker 1: they've gotten out of this whole process is the magnification 1391 01:20:27,439 --> 01:20:30,720 Speaker 1: of their propaganda efforts in the minds of a lot 1392 01:20:30,760 --> 01:20:34,439 Speaker 1: of Americans because of the narrative that Hillary would have 1393 01:20:34,479 --> 01:20:37,120 Speaker 1: won if it weren't for the Russians, which is just 1394 01:20:37,400 --> 01:20:39,479 Speaker 1: again crazy, But this is what they're saying. So this 1395 01:20:39,560 --> 01:20:41,960 Speaker 1: is the Senate panel. Okay, they're saying that they think 1396 01:20:42,000 --> 01:20:46,800 Speaker 1: the Russia wanted to help Trump. So what Russia wanted 1397 01:20:46,840 --> 01:20:49,360 Speaker 1: to help Trump? Every every country's government, by the way, 1398 01:20:49,400 --> 01:20:53,000 Speaker 1: has a favorite in most of our elections, and usually 1399 01:20:53,479 --> 01:20:55,960 Speaker 1: for adversaries. Guess what, it's the Democrat that they want 1400 01:20:56,000 --> 01:21:01,200 Speaker 1: to win. So we just deal with that. We just 1401 01:21:01,360 --> 01:21:06,400 Speaker 1: recognize that and do our best to work within that reality. So, 1402 01:21:06,520 --> 01:21:08,920 Speaker 1: you know, I just this is this report today. They 1403 01:21:09,000 --> 01:21:11,960 Speaker 1: released it before Trump's gonna go meet with with Putin. 1404 01:21:12,000 --> 01:21:14,120 Speaker 1: In a few weeks, and you know they want this 1405 01:21:14,160 --> 01:21:17,639 Speaker 1: stuff out there. This is it doesn't really change anything, 1406 01:21:17,680 --> 01:21:20,160 Speaker 1: doesn't really move the football downfield. You know what, will 1407 01:21:20,360 --> 01:21:23,600 Speaker 1: our friend David French who is joining us here momentarily 1408 01:21:24,200 --> 01:21:26,639 Speaker 1: talk a bit about Spreme Court nominees and then we'll 1409 01:21:26,640 --> 01:21:29,080 Speaker 1: get into some other interesting stuff including roll call, your 1410 01:21:29,200 --> 01:21:33,320 Speaker 1: thoughts and so much more.

Well, 1430 01:22:40,479 --> 01:22:42,960 Speaker 1: that's a big one, and probably not. They're all saying, 1431 01:22:43,080 --> 01:22:45,479 Speaker 1: don't do that, you don't do that, you shouldn't do that. 1432 01:22:45,680 --> 01:22:48,400 Speaker 1: But I'm putting conservative people on.

Well, 1434 01:22:51,280 --> 01:22:53,360 Speaker 1: maybe someday it will be to the states. You never 1435 01:22:53,439 --> 01:22:55,240 Speaker 1: know how that's going to turn out. That's a very 1436 01:22:55,320 --> 01:22:58,760 Speaker 1: complex question. We'll see what happens, but it could very 1437 01:22:58,840 --> 01:23:02,719 Speaker 1: well end up with states at some point. Could indeed, 1438 01:23:02,840 --> 01:23:08,160 Speaker 1: it depends what is the likely path here? Assuming we 1439 01:23:08,360 --> 01:23:11,680 Speaker 1: we get a conservative constitutionalist somebody from the list that 1440 01:23:11,760 --> 01:23:14,320 Speaker 1: Trump has put out there on the Supreme Court, what 1441 01:23:14,400 --> 01:23:16,040 Speaker 1: do we think can happen with Roe and what's the 1442 01:23:16,120 --> 01:23:18,240 Speaker 1: opposition to that pick going to look like? We have 1443 01:23:18,360 --> 01:23:20,800 Speaker 1: David French with us now.

Thanks so much for Hamy. 1448 01:23:36,040 --> 01:23:39,200 Speaker 1: I appreciate it. Let's just let's start with so. So 1449 01:23:39,400 --> 01:23:46,200 Speaker 1: Barrett is female, Catholic, and by all objective measures, eminently 1450 01:23:46,320 --> 01:23:49,720 Speaker 1: qualified for the role of a Supreme Court justice. Right, 1451 01:23:49,760 --> 01:23:52,840 Speaker 1: I mean, she's she's checking all the boxes, but there's 1452 01:23:52,920 --> 01:23:55,840 Speaker 1: one box she checks that is likely to cause some 1453 01:23:56,000 --> 01:24:00,240 Speaker 1: problems on the left. What would that one be? Which 1454 01:24:00,280 --> 01:24:04,360 Speaker 1: he's a very faithful Catholic. Um and not only a 1455 01:24:04,479 --> 01:24:08,880 Speaker 1: very faithful Catholic. She's involved with a Christian community, a 1456 01:24:09,000 --> 01:24:14,360 Speaker 1: Christian parachurch organization called People of Praise that has come 1457 01:24:14,439 --> 01:24:16,760 Speaker 1: up in the New York Times, has been has come 1458 01:24:16,840 --> 01:24:20,519 Speaker 1: up recently on Twitter where they're casting aspersions on her, 1459 01:24:20,600 --> 01:24:23,080 Speaker 1: almost like she's in some sort of cult, when she's 1460 01:24:23,400 --> 01:24:27,240 Speaker 1: plainly not. They I mean, they bring this up and 1461 01:24:27,360 --> 01:24:32,479 Speaker 1: this comes after who was it Feinstein? Who was remember 1462 01:24:32,640 --> 01:24:34,439 Speaker 1: she grilled? I wish we had that audio handy, but 1463 01:24:34,520 --> 01:24:36,760 Speaker 1: we don't. But that was during Oh, we do play it. 1464 01:24:36,880 --> 01:24:40,280 Speaker 1: We've got it well done. When you read your speeches, 1465 01:24:40,840 --> 01:24:47,240 Speaker 1: the conclusion one draws is that the dogma lives loudly 1466 01:24:47,720 --> 01:24:52,080 Speaker 1: within you, and that's of concern when you come to 1467 01:24:52,280 --> 01:24:56,160 Speaker 1: big issues that large numbers of people have fought for 1468 01:24:56,800 --> 01:25:00,840 Speaker 1: for years in this country. I assume if you were 1469 01:25:00,960 --> 01:25:04,599 Speaker 1: on the list that you would be a no vote 1470 01:25:04,880 --> 01:25:08,439 Speaker 1: on Row, and that puts a number of us, just 1471 01:25:08,760 --> 01:25:12,919 Speaker 1: very honestly and Layman's language, in a very difficult position. 1472 01:25:13,120 --> 01:25:15,400 Speaker 1: I'm being considered for a position and a Court of Appeals, 1473 01:25:15,439 --> 01:25:17,320 Speaker 1: and there would be no opportunity to be a no 1474 01:25:17,479 --> 01:25:19,479 Speaker 1: vote on Row. And as I said to the committee, 1475 01:25:19,520 --> 01:25:22,600 Speaker 1: I would faithfully apply all Supreme Court. President. Well, so 1476 01:25:22,720 --> 01:25:25,479 Speaker 1: there we have it, David. We had a Feinstein saying 1477 01:25:25,640 --> 01:25:28,600 Speaker 1: when you read or when you read your speeches, the 1478 01:25:28,760 --> 01:25:32,160 Speaker 1: dogma lives loudly within you. That was quite a moment. 1479 01:25:33,920 --> 01:25:37,040 Speaker 1: That's definitely quite a moment. And it's something that even 1480 01:25:37,080 --> 01:25:39,559 Speaker 1: when it happened, even though you know this is an 1481 01:25:39,600 --> 01:25:42,800 Speaker 1: appellate court judge, judge, not something that a whole lot 1482 01:25:42,840 --> 01:25:46,200 Speaker 1: of people pay attention to other than sort of legal nerds. Uh. 1483 01:25:46,560 --> 01:25:49,000 Speaker 1: It actually caused quite an up war uproar when it 1484 01:25:49,040 --> 01:25:52,120 Speaker 1: happened last year because it was so blatant, such a 1485 01:25:52,160 --> 01:25:55,000 Speaker 1: blatant religious test. I mean, it's it turned to one 1486 01:25:55,280 --> 01:25:57,040 Speaker 1: into one of these things where you could tell that 1487 01:25:57,160 --> 01:25:59,680 Speaker 1: you're dealing with a conservative legal nerd when they were 1488 01:25:59,760 --> 01:26:02,599 Speaker 1: walking around with coffee bugs. That says the dogma lives 1489 01:26:02,680 --> 01:26:06,960 Speaker 1: loudly within you. But yeah, it was a preview of it. 1490 01:26:07,160 --> 01:26:10,559 Speaker 1: What would happen if she is nominated for the Supreme Court? Um? 1491 01:26:10,680 --> 01:26:14,160 Speaker 1: And and here's why it's a preview. Um, if you 1492 01:26:14,280 --> 01:26:18,800 Speaker 1: go by objective qualification, how is this person qualified? She 1493 01:26:18,960 --> 01:26:22,639 Speaker 1: checks all the boxes? I mean, did did very well 1494 01:26:22,760 --> 01:26:26,479 Speaker 1: at an elite law school, was on law review, propellate 1495 01:26:26,520 --> 01:26:30,160 Speaker 1: court clerkship, Supreme Court clerkship, worked atn elite law firm, 1496 01:26:30,240 --> 01:26:32,920 Speaker 1: became a law professor, published peer review articles, and then 1497 01:26:32,960 --> 01:26:35,639 Speaker 1: became a federal judge. I mean, it's it's very similar 1498 01:26:35,680 --> 01:26:37,960 Speaker 1: in some ways to the Elena Kagan path to the 1499 01:26:38,040 --> 01:26:42,440 Speaker 1: Supreme Court. So here's a person universally recognized as as brilliant, 1500 01:26:43,120 --> 01:26:48,200 Speaker 1: universally recognized as someone who really is a star in 1501 01:26:48,280 --> 01:26:53,360 Speaker 1: the conservative legal world. There isn't a qualification based objection 1502 01:26:53,400 --> 01:26:56,000 Speaker 1: to our nor because most of our work has been 1503 01:26:56,040 --> 01:26:59,320 Speaker 1: in academia. Is there a paper trail of a lot 1504 01:26:59,400 --> 01:27:01,759 Speaker 1: of court, this decisions for the left to pick apart, 1505 01:27:01,880 --> 01:27:04,400 Speaker 1: like the way they tried to pick apart the Gorsets 1506 01:27:04,479 --> 01:27:08,720 Speaker 1: Trucker case back in ten. And so what what are 1507 01:27:08,760 --> 01:27:11,080 Speaker 1: you left with? Your left of the brilliant young legal 1508 01:27:11,160 --> 01:27:14,879 Speaker 1: scholar who's done everything she's supposed to do well regarded 1509 01:27:14,960 --> 01:27:18,120 Speaker 1: by her peers. The Notre Dame law faculty signed in 1510 01:27:18,240 --> 01:27:22,200 Speaker 1: a letter unanimously in her support, which included progressive, what 1511 01:27:22,320 --> 01:27:24,720 Speaker 1: are you left with? And and for some progressives, what 1512 01:27:24,800 --> 01:27:28,560 Speaker 1: they're left with is she's just too darned Christian. And 1513 01:27:28,720 --> 01:27:31,639 Speaker 1: that's where we are in public debate in this country 1514 01:27:31,720 --> 01:27:37,040 Speaker 1: in right when we still have what sevent of America 1515 01:27:37,040 --> 01:27:39,800 Speaker 1: I think still at least identifies as Christian. Whether they 1516 01:27:39,840 --> 01:27:41,880 Speaker 1: go to church or not and pay attention to the 1517 01:27:42,040 --> 01:27:45,920 Speaker 1: dogma is a separate issue, But but it is I 1518 01:27:46,080 --> 01:27:48,640 Speaker 1: think where we can expect David that if it's bear 1519 01:27:48,760 --> 01:27:51,120 Speaker 1: by the way, do you have are you putting out 1520 01:27:51,160 --> 01:27:52,719 Speaker 1: odds on this at all? Do you think it's gonna 1521 01:27:52,720 --> 01:27:56,160 Speaker 1: be Barrett? Are you a Kavanaugh person? I think you know. 1522 01:27:56,479 --> 01:27:59,439 Speaker 1: I think I've heard it's between Barrett and Kavanaugh, but 1523 01:27:59,479 --> 01:28:02,679 Speaker 1: I've also heard between it's between Barrett kvan On, Raymond Catholic. 1524 01:28:02,920 --> 01:28:06,240 Speaker 1: So I think there is there's some resistance to Kavanaugh 1525 01:28:06,400 --> 01:28:10,639 Speaker 1: that I have seen. Um. I think Keithlage and Barrett 1526 01:28:10,760 --> 01:28:13,679 Speaker 1: have the kind of records and the clearly articulated judicial 1527 01:28:13,720 --> 01:28:17,080 Speaker 1: philosophy that an awful lot of Conservatives will look at 1528 01:28:17,200 --> 01:28:20,320 Speaker 1: their nomination and say this is a home run on 1529 01:28:20,439 --> 01:28:23,640 Speaker 1: the order of van Neil Gorsig. Uh. So, you know, 1530 01:28:23,760 --> 01:28:26,120 Speaker 1: I don't know where I am on it right now. 1531 01:28:26,200 --> 01:28:30,720 Speaker 1: I would say, between Kethledge, kavan On, Barrett, do you 1532 01:28:30,760 --> 01:28:33,800 Speaker 1: have a prefer equal odds between the three? Look if 1533 01:28:33,800 --> 01:28:36,080 Speaker 1: I could wave that, if I could wave a magic one, 1534 01:28:36,160 --> 01:28:38,840 Speaker 1: tomorrow would be Barried or Ketholic. I think either one 1535 01:28:38,920 --> 01:28:41,320 Speaker 1: of those is sort of like this deep errand Judge 1536 01:28:41,439 --> 01:28:45,679 Speaker 1: home run that causes the conservative crowd to you and awe. Now, 1537 01:28:46,200 --> 01:28:48,280 Speaker 1: I gotta tell you, I'm already seeing and I do 1538 01:28:48,680 --> 01:28:51,439 Speaker 1: a show now in the mornings with a very very 1539 01:28:51,600 --> 01:28:55,400 Speaker 1: uh great and very kind progressive. But you know, we're 1540 01:28:55,439 --> 01:28:57,519 Speaker 1: going back and forth a lot on this stuff, and 1541 01:28:58,040 --> 01:29:02,200 Speaker 1: I'm hearing the arguments against say, one of those nominees 1542 01:29:02,360 --> 01:29:04,320 Speaker 1: and one of these Trump nominees getting through, and David 1543 01:29:04,400 --> 01:29:07,559 Speaker 1: I I try to put on my most objective, honest 1544 01:29:07,600 --> 01:29:10,479 Speaker 1: hat possible. It just all to me sounds a bit 1545 01:29:10,680 --> 01:29:14,920 Speaker 1: like whining, And I wonder if you know there doesn't 1546 01:29:14,920 --> 01:29:16,880 Speaker 1: seem to be a ground. They say, oh, well it's 1547 01:29:17,040 --> 01:29:19,080 Speaker 1: there's no litmus test, but you have to be in 1548 01:29:19,200 --> 01:29:21,439 Speaker 1: favor of Roe v. Wade. They say, oh, you know, 1549 01:29:22,000 --> 01:29:26,200 Speaker 1: Star a decisive previously just decided things you know can't change, 1550 01:29:26,560 --> 01:29:28,800 Speaker 1: but dread Scott was really bad, so maybe bad things 1551 01:29:28,840 --> 01:29:31,640 Speaker 1: actually should change. When the Supreme Court handles them, they say, oh, 1552 01:29:31,760 --> 01:29:34,240 Speaker 1: you know, it should have been Marrick Garland and we say, 1553 01:29:34,320 --> 01:29:36,400 Speaker 1: well it wasn't. I mean, I just I don't see 1554 01:29:36,520 --> 01:29:39,720 Speaker 1: a real argument emerging. I just see a bundle of 1555 01:29:39,920 --> 01:29:43,960 Speaker 1: angry emotions that people don't They don't want Row overturn, 1556 01:29:44,000 --> 01:29:45,800 Speaker 1: but they also just don't want a conservative on the 1557 01:29:45,960 --> 01:29:49,080 Speaker 1: on the High Court. I mean, am I missing? What is? Is? 1558 01:29:49,120 --> 01:29:51,200 Speaker 1: There is there an argument I need to take seriously 1559 01:29:51,360 --> 01:29:53,840 Speaker 1: for why Trump should not be able to pick from 1560 01:29:53,920 --> 01:29:57,160 Speaker 1: this list? No, there is no serious argument as to 1561 01:29:57,200 --> 01:29:58,880 Speaker 1: why I shouldn't be able to pick from this list. 1562 01:29:58,960 --> 01:30:01,800 Speaker 1: I mean, look, a lot of people have remarked on 1563 01:30:01,880 --> 01:30:05,160 Speaker 1: this and noted this, so this is hardly original but look, 1564 01:30:05,400 --> 01:30:09,559 Speaker 1: the bottom line is that the nomination and confirmation process 1565 01:30:09,680 --> 01:30:12,360 Speaker 1: is more partisan than it's ever been. And it's also 1566 01:30:12,400 --> 01:30:16,040 Speaker 1: the bottom line that the judicial philosophies, the different judicial 1567 01:30:16,080 --> 01:30:20,679 Speaker 1: philosophies between four progressive jurists and conservative jurists, the differences 1568 01:30:20,720 --> 01:30:23,360 Speaker 1: in the philosophies is sharper than it's ever been. And 1569 01:30:23,439 --> 01:30:26,360 Speaker 1: so it's it's a reflection of the increased partisanship in 1570 01:30:26,400 --> 01:30:29,280 Speaker 1: the United States. And I was just on MS and 1571 01:30:29,360 --> 01:30:33,600 Speaker 1: B in the MSNBC talking to a uh debating a 1572 01:30:33,680 --> 01:30:36,840 Speaker 1: progressive on this very topic, and he was showing poll 1573 01:30:36,960 --> 01:30:39,719 Speaker 1: numbers showing that the Americans didn't want this this decision 1574 01:30:39,760 --> 01:30:42,840 Speaker 1: overturned or that decision overturned, or pull number, pull numbers 1575 01:30:42,880 --> 01:30:46,080 Speaker 1: regarding Roe v. Way, and this look, pull numbers are interesting. 1576 01:30:46,240 --> 01:30:51,439 Speaker 1: Election results are binding, And the bottom line is people 1577 01:30:51,760 --> 01:30:55,800 Speaker 1: voted for Donald Trump and large numbers because of this 1578 01:30:55,960 --> 01:30:58,680 Speaker 1: court and because of the court. And Trump knows it, 1579 01:30:58,960 --> 01:31:01,240 Speaker 1: his team knows it, and they know that they've got 1580 01:31:01,360 --> 01:31:03,639 Speaker 1: to come through here. And the fact that he's come 1581 01:31:03,720 --> 01:31:08,000 Speaker 1: through so well with Gorset and other federal judicial nominations 1582 01:31:08,120 --> 01:31:10,439 Speaker 1: is one of the reasons why the Republican base is 1583 01:31:10,479 --> 01:31:13,160 Speaker 1: still so bonded to him in spite of you know, 1584 01:31:13,280 --> 01:31:16,840 Speaker 1: many other missteps and in scandals. I appreciate it, by 1585 01:31:16,880 --> 01:31:18,559 Speaker 1: the way, David, and I think you know that because 1586 01:31:18,560 --> 01:31:22,280 Speaker 1: I retweeted earlier today you just saying what I think 1587 01:31:22,320 --> 01:31:24,240 Speaker 1: some people dance around I say it here on the 1588 01:31:24,240 --> 01:31:27,200 Speaker 1: show on a regular basis. In fact, the most uh 1589 01:31:28,080 --> 01:31:32,320 Speaker 1: storied progressive law and jurisprudence professor at my college would 1590 01:31:32,320 --> 01:31:35,000 Speaker 1: walk around saying that he thinks that abortion should be legal. 1591 01:31:35,080 --> 01:31:37,080 Speaker 1: You know all mine months. But Roe is just crap 1592 01:31:37,240 --> 01:31:39,600 Speaker 1: as as law goes, and there's just no defending it. 1593 01:31:39,680 --> 01:31:42,720 Speaker 1: It's garbage, it's make believe and and you you don't 1594 01:31:42,760 --> 01:31:44,559 Speaker 1: use those words, but you're only to go out there 1595 01:31:44,560 --> 01:31:46,280 Speaker 1: and said the same thing. I think that's important for 1596 01:31:46,360 --> 01:31:48,479 Speaker 1: people to hear right now that this isn't a this 1597 01:31:48,640 --> 01:31:51,280 Speaker 1: wasn't a close call thing. This was a Supreme Court 1598 01:31:51,720 --> 01:31:55,800 Speaker 1: made it up and they need to unmake this up. Right. 1599 01:31:56,240 --> 01:31:59,160 Speaker 1: A lot of people call abortion a constitutional right. I 1600 01:31:59,479 --> 01:32:02,479 Speaker 1: I have acted that what abortion is is it the 1601 01:32:02,640 --> 01:32:06,120 Speaker 1: right to abortion is secured not by the Constitution. It's 1602 01:32:06,160 --> 01:32:09,080 Speaker 1: secured because you'll see it nowhere in there. It's secured 1603 01:32:09,200 --> 01:32:14,439 Speaker 1: by a lousy judicial precedent. It's secured by a badly reasoned, 1604 01:32:14,800 --> 01:32:19,960 Speaker 1: results oriented activist judicial precedent that should be overturned. It's 1605 01:32:20,360 --> 01:32:24,519 Speaker 1: terrible constitutional law. And look, I'm a conservative, I'm pro life, 1606 01:32:24,560 --> 01:32:26,880 Speaker 1: I freely admit that. But you know what, there were 1607 01:32:26,960 --> 01:32:30,200 Speaker 1: progressives who have agreed with that for a very long time. 1608 01:32:30,280 --> 01:32:34,040 Speaker 1: That Row is just a bad it's bad constitutional law. 1609 01:32:34,160 --> 01:32:37,840 Speaker 1: It's a badly reasoned court decision. Look, you know, and 1610 01:32:38,000 --> 01:32:40,280 Speaker 1: as I said to you know, my friend I was debating, 1611 01:32:40,320 --> 01:32:43,160 Speaker 1: I said, hey, if you think that that the right 1612 01:32:43,200 --> 01:32:46,479 Speaker 1: to an abortion is so darn't popular, well then what 1613 01:32:46,560 --> 01:32:48,320 Speaker 1: do you have to fear from overturning Row. You'll just 1614 01:32:48,360 --> 01:32:50,360 Speaker 1: go ahead and win all the elections and you'll, you know, 1615 01:32:50,439 --> 01:32:53,160 Speaker 1: the states will, the states will protect the right to 1616 01:32:53,200 --> 01:32:55,280 Speaker 1: an abortion. But I think the fact of the matter 1617 01:32:55,439 --> 01:32:59,479 Speaker 1: is the radical pro abortion side of the argument knows 1618 01:32:59,680 --> 01:33:03,599 Speaker 1: that in many, if not most, American states, the American 1619 01:33:03,680 --> 01:33:07,519 Speaker 1: people want greater restrictions on abortion, and in some states 1620 01:33:07,560 --> 01:33:10,200 Speaker 1: are willing to outright ban the practice. And so this 1621 01:33:10,439 --> 01:33:12,560 Speaker 1: is something that never should have been taken out of 1622 01:33:12,600 --> 01:33:16,960 Speaker 1: the democratic process. It never should have been rendered beyond 1623 01:33:17,160 --> 01:33:20,840 Speaker 1: democratic debate by judicial president and it's something that's ripe 1624 01:33:20,920 --> 01:33:23,559 Speaker 1: for reversal. Now. I don't think any of Trump's nominees 1625 01:33:23,600 --> 01:33:26,479 Speaker 1: will get up and say that the reverse row because 1626 01:33:27,000 --> 01:33:29,680 Speaker 1: judicial nominees never say how they're going to rule on 1627 01:33:29,760 --> 01:33:33,040 Speaker 1: potential future cases, either the nominees from the left or 1628 01:33:33,080 --> 01:33:35,000 Speaker 1: the right, so they're not going to say that. But 1629 01:33:35,120 --> 01:33:38,960 Speaker 1: I do hope that whoever the nominee is will when 1630 01:33:39,040 --> 01:33:40,920 Speaker 1: the if and when the day camps have the courage 1631 01:33:40,960 --> 01:33:43,599 Speaker 1: to do the right thing.

We'll be right back. Answer that question. 1643 01:34:17,960 --> 01:34:23,040 Speaker 1: The President's executive order has uh bought some time for Congress, 1644 01:34:23,080 --> 01:34:25,800 Speaker 1: but the clock is ticking and Congress needs to act 1645 01:34:25,880 --> 01:34:29,200 Speaker 1: to fix this process because we're running out of time 1646 01:34:29,320 --> 01:34:31,920 Speaker 1: on what we have the ability to do, particularly with 1647 01:34:32,000 --> 01:34:36,840 Speaker 1: the district court that weighed in just last week. The 1648 01:34:36,880 --> 01:34:41,799 Speaker 1: Trump administration never released the So we were Laurence o'donald 1649 01:34:41,880 --> 01:34:43,720 Speaker 1: producer Mike, what what happened here? He just dropped an 1650 01:34:43,760 --> 01:34:46,720 Speaker 1: F bomb in response to Sarah huckby Sanders or did 1651 01:34:46,760 --> 01:34:50,479 Speaker 1: you just drop something I couldn't tell? I thought, you know, 1652 01:34:50,520 --> 01:34:52,720 Speaker 1: when I read that headline, I figured that maybe there 1653 01:34:52,800 --> 01:34:55,400 Speaker 1: was a situation where he was responding to huck Sanders 1654 01:34:55,400 --> 01:34:58,000 Speaker 1: because he but it sounded like he smelled his coffee 1655 01:34:58,000 --> 01:35:00,559 Speaker 1: on himself or something. Well, Originally, what I was thinking 1656 01:35:00,640 --> 01:35:02,240 Speaker 1: with this segment, folks, was I was gonna tell you 1657 01:35:02,320 --> 01:35:06,920 Speaker 1: about how you need to keep in mind that some 1658 01:35:07,080 --> 01:35:10,160 Speaker 1: of these TV pundit types they hate the president as much, 1659 01:35:10,200 --> 01:35:12,439 Speaker 1: of these as much as these left wing activists, uh 1660 01:35:12,680 --> 01:35:14,639 Speaker 1: that that it's not really an act with them, which 1661 01:35:14,680 --> 01:35:20,480 Speaker 1: I find even more terrifying. It makes me more uncomfortable 1662 01:35:20,520 --> 01:35:22,160 Speaker 1: to know that there are people out there who really 1663 01:35:22,240 --> 01:35:26,280 Speaker 1: believe who who are multi multi millionaires with huge platforms 1664 01:35:27,240 --> 01:35:31,800 Speaker 1: who believe that the president of the United States is 1665 01:35:31,960 --> 01:35:34,439 Speaker 1: trying to take this country and turn it into some 1666 01:35:35,920 --> 01:35:41,040 Speaker 1: fascist dystopia. I'd rather they were just doing this as 1667 01:35:41,200 --> 01:35:45,280 Speaker 1: some kind of you know, em ploy just to get 1668 01:35:45,320 --> 01:35:49,000 Speaker 1: people to watch. I'd rather this was performance art, performance theater. 1669 01:35:49,880 --> 01:35:51,240 Speaker 1: But I don't know, Mike, do you have any for 1670 01:35:51,320 --> 01:35:54,040 Speaker 1: me here? Man? Was it was that? What happened there? 1671 01:35:54,200 --> 01:35:56,880 Speaker 1: Why did he? Why did why did o'donald drop an 1672 01:35:56,960 --> 01:35:59,639 Speaker 1: F bomb on live air? Do we know he didn't 1673 01:35:59,680 --> 01:36:01,840 Speaker 1: like what Sanders was saying? Oh? It was in response 1674 01:36:01,880 --> 01:36:04,280 Speaker 1: to Huck Sanders. Yeah, she she They went to a 1675 01:36:04,400 --> 01:36:06,519 Speaker 1: clip of her and like, it looks like they came 1676 01:36:06,520 --> 01:36:08,639 Speaker 1: back from the clip a little sooner than he thought 1677 01:36:08,680 --> 01:36:10,360 Speaker 1: they were coming back, and he got caught dropping the 1678 01:36:10,439 --> 01:36:13,840 Speaker 1: F bomb. Oh so it's a it's an open mic 1679 01:36:13,960 --> 01:36:17,920 Speaker 1: moment then, Okay, reminds me of the guy who said 1680 01:36:19,240 --> 01:36:23,960 Speaker 1: during the Romney Obama campaign, the guy who said that 1681 01:36:24,800 --> 01:36:26,960 Speaker 1: Romney and this was caught on an open mic. Romney 1682 01:36:27,040 --> 01:36:29,479 Speaker 1: was happy to have a party while quote black people 1683 01:36:29,600 --> 01:36:34,040 Speaker 1: drowned end quote, And that guy got fired. You know 1684 01:36:34,080 --> 01:36:37,000 Speaker 1: what happened to him? He wasn't drummed out of of 1685 01:36:37,160 --> 01:36:40,800 Speaker 1: political analysis life. He's got a huge job over at See, 1686 01:36:40,840 --> 01:36:43,439 Speaker 1: a big job over at CNN. Now he was at Yahoo. 1687 01:36:44,680 --> 01:36:49,000 Speaker 1: So there's that he actually got guys, he got an upgrade. 1688 01:36:49,360 --> 01:36:52,519 Speaker 1: He got a more important, higher paying job after being 1689 01:36:52,600 --> 01:36:56,559 Speaker 1: a quote objective journalist and accused mit Romney of being 1690 01:36:56,680 --> 01:36:59,840 Speaker 1: a heinous racist based on no informational than he's a Republican. 1691 01:37:01,560 --> 01:37:04,000 Speaker 1: But there, yes, okay, so it was O'donnald just just 1692 01:37:04,080 --> 01:37:08,080 Speaker 1: hate huckeb Sanders. I mean, she has become after Trump, 1693 01:37:08,280 --> 01:37:12,760 Speaker 1: I think, the most by the left wing media. They're 1694 01:37:12,800 --> 01:37:16,000 Speaker 1: they're the nastiest to Sarah Hackeby Sanders. They really are they. 1695 01:37:16,320 --> 01:37:20,360 Speaker 1: You know, they've gone after her in a way that is, 1696 01:37:20,840 --> 01:37:23,080 Speaker 1: it tells us so much more about the people that 1697 01:37:23,240 --> 01:37:26,160 Speaker 1: are going after her than it does about Sarah Hackaby Sanders, right, 1698 01:37:26,200 --> 01:37:29,040 Speaker 1: tells us so much more about what it is right 1699 01:37:29,120 --> 01:37:31,479 Speaker 1: now that is animating the left. And it's just animous. 1700 01:37:32,280 --> 01:37:35,800 Speaker 1: They are full of hate and bile and nastiness. I'm 1701 01:37:35,840 --> 01:37:37,600 Speaker 1: not hearing ideas from the left at all. I'm just 1702 01:37:37,800 --> 01:37:42,120 Speaker 1: hearing a lot of rage and if nothing else, I 1703 01:37:42,360 --> 01:37:45,000 Speaker 1: think maybe this is a necessary Catharsis for the country 1704 01:37:45,640 --> 01:37:49,360 Speaker 1: just just to have. Maybe the real secret of of 1705 01:37:49,439 --> 01:37:53,000 Speaker 1: Trump's brilliance is that he will exhaust the rage functions 1706 01:37:53,040 --> 01:37:55,240 Speaker 1: of the left, will become exhausted in time, and then 1707 01:37:55,280 --> 01:37:56,760 Speaker 1: they'll have to be normal people that we can have 1708 01:37:56,800 --> 01:37:59,839 Speaker 1: a discussion with about things that matter. In the meantime, 1709 01:38:00,000 --> 01:38:02,400 Speaker 1: they're gonna go on TV and curse and be angry 1710 01:38:02,479 --> 01:38:06,640 Speaker 1: and hateful and full of all this crazy stuff. You know, 1711 01:38:06,880 --> 01:38:08,720 Speaker 1: people trying to compare what's going on now with the 1712 01:38:08,760 --> 01:38:10,479 Speaker 1: Tea Party. I get so angry about that. Like, the 1713 01:38:10,560 --> 01:38:13,760 Speaker 1: Tea Party was peaceful rallies. People were respectful and there 1714 01:38:13,880 --> 01:38:17,080 Speaker 1: was a there were policy goals behind what they were doing, 1715 01:38:17,320 --> 01:38:19,479 Speaker 1: and it was all about showing up and voting. They 1716 01:38:19,520 --> 01:38:23,320 Speaker 1: weren't harassing people at restaurants. They weren't, you know, threatening 1717 01:38:23,400 --> 01:38:27,519 Speaker 1: people's families. Rand Paul sentator. Rand Paul just had somebody 1718 01:38:27,520 --> 01:38:30,439 Speaker 1: had to be arrested because someone threatened to kill his 1719 01:38:30,479 --> 01:38:31,880 Speaker 1: family and chop them up with an ax. I mean, 1720 01:38:31,920 --> 01:38:34,880 Speaker 1: there are maniacs running around now, and it doesn't help 1721 01:38:34,920 --> 01:38:38,120 Speaker 1: when you've got multi millionaires going on TV acting like 1722 01:38:38,400 --> 01:38:42,120 Speaker 1: they're part of the resistance against Nazism aka Trump is 1723 01:38:42,160 --> 01:38:45,760 Speaker 1: um now too.

Thank you, Seth, 1797 01:43:01,680 --> 01:43:05,599 Speaker 1: you're a scholar and a gentleman. Uh. Next up here, 1798 01:43:06,760 --> 01:43:08,880 Speaker 1: Michael writes, it's a fool's errand to think you'll ever 1799 01:43:08,960 --> 01:43:11,280 Speaker 1: convince cab All of the wrongness of reviews and the 1800 01:43:11,400 --> 01:43:15,160 Speaker 1: rightness of yours ain't gonna happen. Michael, I know, but 1801 01:43:15,280 --> 01:43:18,600 Speaker 1: the exercise is the point, right, the the act, the 1802 01:43:18,880 --> 01:43:23,080 Speaker 1: exercise intellectually of making the case, making the argument, but 1803 01:43:23,280 --> 01:43:28,080 Speaker 1: to try to persuade instead of trying to assault, bludgeon 1804 01:43:28,160 --> 01:43:32,360 Speaker 1: with words and undermine. Right, that's this is what we're 1805 01:43:32,360 --> 01:43:35,160 Speaker 1: trying to do. I've been saying this to it is experimental. 1806 01:43:35,439 --> 01:43:38,440 Speaker 1: Nobody else is doing this out there right now. Everybody 1807 01:43:38,520 --> 01:43:42,000 Speaker 1: else is doing steel cage match. Everybody else is you know, 1808 01:43:42,120 --> 01:43:46,080 Speaker 1: my side, your side? That's it. So is this gonna 1809 01:43:46,120 --> 01:43:48,800 Speaker 1: work a long term? Who knows, But it's in the 1810 01:43:48,880 --> 01:43:52,080 Speaker 1: meantime at least you're trying something different. You know, Crystal 1811 01:43:52,160 --> 01:43:55,439 Speaker 1: and I get along really well, so we're able to 1812 01:43:55,560 --> 01:43:59,439 Speaker 1: operate in this space of we can share our ideas 1813 01:43:59,479 --> 01:44:02,880 Speaker 1: and thoughts without it, you know, turning into a melee 1814 01:44:03,240 --> 01:44:05,559 Speaker 1: out there, although you know there'll be a melee at 1815 01:44:05,640 --> 01:44:09,679 Speaker 1: some point, just hopefully not a really bad one. Emery Rights, 1816 01:44:09,720 --> 01:44:12,679 Speaker 1: Hey Buck, curious if you have seen the movie Cicario two. 1817 01:44:13,479 --> 01:44:15,880 Speaker 1: If so, wondering what you think of the angle of 1818 01:44:15,960 --> 01:44:18,240 Speaker 1: the movie. They seem to take a little stab at 1819 01:44:18,280 --> 01:44:20,120 Speaker 1: Fox News, but overall I was not sure if it 1820 01:44:20,240 --> 01:44:23,920 Speaker 1: was left or right. Emory, I have not seen Cicario two. 1821 01:44:24,800 --> 01:44:27,320 Speaker 1: I thought that there were a couple of really excellent 1822 01:44:27,439 --> 01:44:31,040 Speaker 1: scenes in Cicario one. I did think overall, though the 1823 01:44:31,080 --> 01:44:33,840 Speaker 1: movie was a little bit grim and a little bit relentless, 1824 01:44:34,600 --> 01:44:37,760 Speaker 1: and that was not not in a good way. So 1825 01:44:38,080 --> 01:44:42,160 Speaker 1: I will just put that out there. Um, yes, indeed 1826 01:44:43,360 --> 01:44:45,320 Speaker 1: I do want to see it though, I really do 1827 01:44:45,400 --> 01:44:49,679 Speaker 1: want to check it out. Jonathan, Next up here, Buck. 1828 01:44:49,760 --> 01:44:51,840 Speaker 1: Isn't it amazing how the media went from saying Trump 1829 01:44:51,960 --> 01:44:54,840 Speaker 1: was guilty of human rights violations for separating children from 1830 01:44:54,880 --> 01:44:58,479 Speaker 1: their parents to freaking out about the possibility of a 1831 01:44:58,560 --> 01:45:03,479 Speaker 1: potential new Supreme Court justice voting voting against abortion. It 1832 01:45:03,520 --> 01:45:06,320 Speaker 1: seems like they care more about possibly losing the right 1833 01:45:06,439 --> 01:45:11,479 Speaker 1: of killing babies than caring for abused children. You know, Jonathan, 1834 01:45:12,080 --> 01:45:16,160 Speaker 1: there are there's really no area right now of American 1835 01:45:16,240 --> 01:45:21,719 Speaker 1: life that I think has become more, ah more polluted 1836 01:45:21,800 --> 01:45:28,960 Speaker 1: by immorality and and illogic and poor thinking and dishonesty 1837 01:45:29,760 --> 01:45:34,800 Speaker 1: than the abortion debate. It's it's just terrible. It's terrible 1838 01:45:34,840 --> 01:45:38,080 Speaker 1: what goes on. It's terrible that people lie about it, 1839 01:45:38,600 --> 01:45:41,360 Speaker 1: and you know, it's it's it's terrible that there is 1840 01:45:41,439 --> 01:45:44,799 Speaker 1: such a massive industry. Now, remember it is an industry 1841 01:45:45,439 --> 01:45:48,280 Speaker 1: around planned parenthood in these other organizations. And I will 1842 01:45:48,320 --> 01:45:52,320 Speaker 1: tell you, even on the right, it is considered a risk, 1843 01:45:53,479 --> 01:45:55,200 Speaker 1: and I have been told in the past when I've 1844 01:45:55,200 --> 01:45:58,000 Speaker 1: wanted to do segments on abortion, not ever here. Um, 1845 01:45:58,400 --> 01:46:00,720 Speaker 1: I'm I'm giving free rein. One of the reasons why 1846 01:46:00,760 --> 01:46:02,559 Speaker 1: I love the company I work for. Here on radio, 1847 01:46:02,560 --> 01:46:04,840 Speaker 1: I'm giving complete free rein to talk about whatever I want. 1848 01:46:05,240 --> 01:46:08,960 Speaker 1: No one ever ever gives me any direction or take 1849 01:46:09,040 --> 01:46:11,759 Speaker 1: this position or anything else. So you know, God bless 1850 01:46:12,040 --> 01:46:14,800 Speaker 1: Premiere Radio Networks for that. But in my previous life, 1851 01:46:14,840 --> 01:46:16,960 Speaker 1: at some other places I've been without getting into it, 1852 01:46:17,479 --> 01:46:22,879 Speaker 1: I have been told, uh that you know, abortion segments, 1853 01:46:23,000 --> 01:46:24,840 Speaker 1: you know they don't rate, we don't want to talk 1854 01:46:24,880 --> 01:46:26,760 Speaker 1: about it, We shouldn't do it. And it's one of 1855 01:46:26,760 --> 01:46:28,400 Speaker 1: those areas we'll look at them and say, I don't 1856 01:46:28,400 --> 01:46:30,920 Speaker 1: care if it doesn't rate. You gotta talk about this. 1857 01:46:32,439 --> 01:46:36,560 Speaker 1: I have a I have a platform here, I have 1858 01:46:36,600 --> 01:46:40,600 Speaker 1: the ability to reach people. We're talking about this. But 1859 01:46:40,760 --> 01:46:42,400 Speaker 1: just just remember that there are a lot of people 1860 01:46:42,439 --> 01:46:47,280 Speaker 1: that say, especially with TV. Actually with TV, uh, the 1861 01:46:47,360 --> 01:46:49,760 Speaker 1: moment you have a segment about abortion, everyone turns it off. 1862 01:46:50,439 --> 01:46:54,920 Speaker 1: That's that's the conventional wisdom about it at least. So uh, 1863 01:46:55,040 --> 01:46:59,839 Speaker 1: here we go. Next up, Chris Right, truckers don't have holidays. 1864 01:47:00,040 --> 01:47:02,360 Speaker 1: Enjoy your day.
