1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:07,400 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Third hour of Clay in Bucks starts 3 00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:10,160 Speaker 1: right now. Everybody, Thanks for being here with us, Thanks 4 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:13,480 Speaker 1: for joining us from all across the country. So I'm 5 00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:18,280 Speaker 1: interesting moments from debates last night. JD Vance slapping around 6 00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:20,720 Speaker 1: Tim Ryan some more. We'll get into some of that, 7 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:26,880 Speaker 1: plus Brian Kemp and Stacy Abrams squaring off. Not looking 8 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:30,000 Speaker 1: good for Stacy Abrams in Georgia and that may mean 9 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:35,080 Speaker 1: not looking good for Raphael Warnock in Georgia as well, 10 00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:37,640 Speaker 1: running in that Senate race. We'll break that down for 11 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,599 Speaker 1: you here in just a moment. The border coming up, 12 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:44,760 Speaker 1: particularly between JD and Tim Ryan, and I'll explain why 13 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:48,879 Speaker 1: that's so important. But you know, first up, Clay had 14 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:51,159 Speaker 1: sent to me this morning that for Mark Kelly out 15 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 1: in Arizona, they are currently demanding proof of vaccination status 16 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 1: for an outside event. Now, Clay was recently asked in 17 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:07,920 Speaker 1: New York City for his vaccine papers which morning, which 18 00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:10,840 Speaker 1: he did not have. So by the way, mind like, 19 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: can you imagine try to head somebody right now the 20 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,959 Speaker 1: little the little tattered piece of paper that says Jay 21 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:21,319 Speaker 1: and Jay shot August twenty, like it's falling apart in 22 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,960 Speaker 1: my hands. It's like turning to dust. The whole thing 23 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: was so stupid, so wrong, so authoritarian the first place. 24 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,039 Speaker 1: But there's something that's flying under the radar right now 25 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 1: on this that I think we should tell the audience about. 26 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 1: I think everybody should know about this, and I brought 27 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 1: it up this morning. I checked on the Federal Register 28 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 1: website because I had seen some chatter about it in 29 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 1: social media. And then justin about the last hour, our 30 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 1: friend Alex Barrenson put out something similar or on the 31 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 1: same along the same lines on his sub stack, which 32 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 1: is excellent and I subscribe to. But the CDC is 33 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 1: supposed to have and a Vaccine Advisory Committee meeting tomorrow 34 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 1: and in that meeting, and it is on the federal 35 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:12,120 Speaker 1: website about it's like regulations dot gov. So I want 36 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 1: to be clear, this is not conspiracy stuff. I literally 37 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 1: am looking at regulations dot gov as I speak to you, 38 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: And there is supposed to be between October nineteenth and 39 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 1: October twentieth. So yes, tomorrow and the next day this 40 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 1: meeting where Clay the CDC is going to be determining 41 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:38,520 Speaker 1: whether vaccination for COVID is part of the overall guidance 42 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: for children to attend school. Now, for anybody who's thinking 43 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:45,640 Speaker 1: about this and say, well, hold on, I live in 44 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 1: and I was warning people all along I live in 45 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: a red state, so I'll be okay. Now with these 46 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 1: psycho authoritarian lives in DC calling the shots, the Department 47 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 1: of Education can extend its tentacles into all fifty states 48 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: and it US. And what we see here is perhaps 49 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 1: the beginning of mandating it could be again, the meeting 50 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: hasn't happened, it is, it is on the schedule, the 51 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,919 Speaker 1: possibility of making, along with measles, mumps, rebella and other 52 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: vaccines mandatory for children or even just highly recommended, which 53 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: will have the same effect in a lot of places. 54 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 1: And then Clay Alex raises the possibility this also has 55 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:29,359 Speaker 1: to do with the liability issue for the vaccine makers 56 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,799 Speaker 1: as well and the emergency status. What do you make 57 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 1: of this? I smell something funky? Yeah. Well, first of all, 58 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: like ninety five or ninety eight percent or whatever the 59 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 1: number is out there, young kids should not be getting 60 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 1: this shot. And my young kids are not going to 61 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 1: get this shot. And for people out there who are 62 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 1: trying to compare this to measles, mumps and rebella. Those 63 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 1: shots are actually vaccines. The COVID shot is not. And 64 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 1: unlike measles, mumps and rebella, almost all of our kids 65 00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: have already had COVID, unlike what's going on with this storyline. 66 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: And this is important, I think too, Buck, because the 67 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: liability aspect of this. We're about to talk to Tennessee's 68 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: attorney general and there are a lot of state attorney 69 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 1: generals out there that are recognizing what's going on with 70 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 1: miners having gender reassignment surgeries, and they're saying, we're not 71 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,480 Speaker 1: going to allow this anymore. And it makes sense because 72 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:29,279 Speaker 1: you can't get a tattoo in most places unless you're 73 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: eighteen or more, I think, everywhere legally, and yet we're 74 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 1: chopping people's genitals off when they're fourteen. I mean, this 75 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:40,799 Speaker 1: is craziness. And so to me, when you look at this, Buck, 76 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,159 Speaker 1: I believe, and I know we've got a lot of 77 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 1: attorney generals and staff out there that listen to us. 78 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:51,280 Speaker 1: I think we need a massive lawsuit against all of 79 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:57,479 Speaker 1: these COVID companies, the drug companies for fraud and Ian Miller, 80 00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: who's done, great job. We've had them on the show 81 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: a couple of times. Buck he does. He now writes 82 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 1: at OutKick, among other things. He tweeted yesterday Fiser CEO 83 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 1: June twenty twenty one, and this is a quote widespread 84 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 1: vaccination is a critical tool to help stop transmission. And 85 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 1: that was in June of twenty twenty one. Just this 86 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:24,480 Speaker 1: month he said, we had absolutely no idea. This is 87 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: the Fiser CEO. If widespread vaccination would be a critical 88 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 1: tool to help stop transmission, how is this not fraud? 89 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: And the reason why I'm bringing this up is we 90 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:39,600 Speaker 1: gave immunity protection protection from lawsuit to these drug companies 91 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: over the COVID shots. But I believe they have perpetrated 92 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: a fraud upon the American public. And I think that 93 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 1: many different Republican attorney generals out there need to ban 94 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 1: together and sue Fvisor Maderna and potentially Johnson and Johnson 95 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 1: as well, for perpetrating a fraud on the American public 96 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 1: and as a result, getting tens of billions of dollars 97 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 1: and ill gotten gains based on a lie. And there 98 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,280 Speaker 1: are many different fraud statutes under which these lawsuits could occur. 99 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 1: In a variety of different states. But I think this 100 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 1: is what needs to happen, and I think everybody out there, 101 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,040 Speaker 1: I think, Bucky, you nailed this. You can think, oh, 102 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: I'm in a red state, this is not going to 103 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: be an issue for me, and then suddenly you look 104 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:26,479 Speaker 1: up and some of your schools are requiring the COVID shot. 105 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,599 Speaker 1: So the other thing I would say is certainly in 106 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 1: Republican states with Republican governors and Republican state legislatures, if 107 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: you haven't already, you need to pass bills saying that 108 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 1: the shot is never going to be mandated as a 109 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 1: precondition to attend public schools in any of your school districts. 110 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: At least happen now. How everyone needs to remember it 111 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,600 Speaker 1: was just a little over a year ago, or actually 112 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:53,600 Speaker 1: was it in October? I'm trying to remember when they 113 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 1: tried to ram through the federal vaccine mandate for businesses 114 00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 1: with over one hundred employees. Remember, you could get the 115 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,279 Speaker 1: shot or you could test, you know, every five minutes forever, 116 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 1: as if that was going to do anything. I mean, 117 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,280 Speaker 1: it was. It was obviously meant to be a vaccination 118 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 1: mandate by any you know, by other names or other 119 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 1: means uh osha. Okay, they try to use OSHA for 120 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: all fifty states as the justification for making everybody get shot. 121 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 1: So we should not we should not take our eye 122 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 1: off of this. And maybe we'll get doctor McCarry or 123 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 1: somebody to weigh on this tomorrow because this is just crazy. 124 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 1: I mean, no one, Only the most neurotic, disconnected lefty 125 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 1: libs and really lifestyle libs on the coasts are getting 126 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: these shots for their children. I mean only people that 127 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: are like, I didn't let you know, I didn't let 128 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 1: little uh, you know, Penelope and little Atticus out of 129 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 1: their homes in Brooklyn and Santa Monica for the last 130 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 1: two years. But now you know, they're the only ones 131 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 1: that are getting their their kids the shots, the ones 132 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 1: that made them double mask indoors alone for two years. 133 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 1: Almost none of them are even doing it. This is 134 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,160 Speaker 1: what I keep pointing out that there's a lot of 135 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: hypocrites out there in the blue check community because they 136 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 1: lectured everybody, you're gonna kill my grandma if you don't 137 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: get the COVID shot. And then as the data has 138 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 1: continued to come out, they haven't changed their public stances, 139 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 1: but what they're often doing privately as it pertains to 140 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 1: their kids, is something totally different than what they said 141 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,239 Speaker 1: months ago about what they are going to do for themselves. 142 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: And this is why, and Buck, you hopefully will find 143 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 1: it out in the near future. You will take risks 144 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 1: with your own health as a parent far more than 145 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 1: you will take any risk with your own kids. And 146 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 1: I think many of these blue checks who lectured you 147 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 1: and me and a lot of our followers, a lot 148 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 1: of our listeners out there for not getting the COVID 149 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 1: shot ourselves, are making that choice for their kids and 150 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 1: keeping it privately. Two percent of kids fully vaxed. With 151 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 1: my fiance Harry, she has a VESPA, and I worry 152 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 1: for just pure safety reasons about being on the stat 153 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 1: to the vespa. But she's like, but you go around 154 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 1: like a bat out of hell on your east scooter 155 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: with no helmet on. True, Carrie has a vespa. Yeah, 156 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,840 Speaker 1: she's cool. Where does she put Like, I don't even 157 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 1: know where does she park the vespa? Well, it's at 158 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: her parents place, oh in Tallahassee. Yes, yes, so she will. 159 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: She will hop on the vespa and go like, how 160 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 1: far on the vespa? No, she hasn't done it. Yet 161 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 1: I'm we're having a whole conversation about the risk factors. 162 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: I'm saying, I'm on your side. This is a crazy 163 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,199 Speaker 1: move by your fiance. Yeah, I don't. I think the 164 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 1: Vespa is dangerous and is my East scooter dangerous? Sure, 165 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:43,080 Speaker 1: but you know, I'm I'm willing to risk my own 166 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 1: bodily safety, but you know she has to be safe. 167 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 1: This is how I didn't know they still rode vespa. 168 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,320 Speaker 1: So this is like, uh, I watched one of those 169 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 1: Pixar movies where they were riding around on the Vespa 170 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: all the time, Like, why not a regular bike? I 171 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:59,560 Speaker 1: don't know. I mean because this way, if it's a Vespa, 172 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,559 Speaker 1: you can roll around and just be like yeah, that's 173 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. It's basically a mini motorcycle, right, I mean, 174 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 1: how would you describe how fast can a Vestpa go? 175 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 1: I'm probably like forty fifty miles an hour. I mean 176 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: that's really fast. Yeah, of course. Wow, Well you know 177 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 1: her clay second family. I don't know if you're giving 178 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: all due respect my East scooter, especially since I've dropped 179 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: a few lbs. Because, by the way, it really that's 180 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 1: so it's so sad. I'll tell you the truth. Sometimes 181 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 1: the streets of New York, I'm on my eat scooter 182 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 1: and there's somebody else with the same model of scooter 183 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 1: and they're going about two or three miles an hour faster, 184 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 1: but they don't you red binding mine, And then I 185 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 1: just realized it's those extra gluten free donuts. Man. I gotta, 186 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 1: I gotta. You know, it's a real weight to thrust ratio. 187 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 1: You gotta it's rough. Well, now I'm pictured in your 188 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 1: fiance because her all the men in her family are 189 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 1: fighter pilots. She's basically like Tom Cruise and top Gun, 190 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,240 Speaker 1: like leaning over the Vestpa going full speed, you know, 191 00:10:56,280 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 1: in the iconic shots of Oh Yeah, she's basically Maverick 192 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 1: on the vespa. Yeah. I mean you can go real 193 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 1: fast on a vespa. I mean the East Scooter is, 194 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 1: you know, the East Scooter versus a Rascal, you know, 195 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 1: the like motorized wheelchair in a race. It's closer than 196 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 1: you'd want it to be. I'll tell you. You know, 197 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 1: we have bikes all over the Florida beaches where I 198 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:19,960 Speaker 1: like to go down on the thirty A area, and 199 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 1: it's not uncommon for me to wreck a bike. And 200 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 1: you can't go that fast on a bike. I would 201 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 1: There's no, under no circumstance would I get on a Vespa, 202 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 1: because I think I would kill myself. Like, I'm not 203 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: even kidding. So the scooter thing, I'd probably get on 204 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:37,200 Speaker 1: your little scooter. I'm not too worried about that because 205 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,559 Speaker 1: I feel like I could maneuver that a little bit better. 206 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:43,960 Speaker 1: But the VESPA, I I think she might. I hate 207 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 1: to say it. I'm kind of on your side here. 208 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 1: There we go. See we're double man splaining about VESPA 209 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,679 Speaker 1: safety on the show. So I'm sure we got some 210 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 1: VESPA riders in the audience, by the way, who were like, 211 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 1: you don't understand. It's amazing. M this is funny. As 212 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:02,199 Speaker 1: we go to break, do you remember then your favorite 213 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 1: football player, Aaron Rodgers. One of our writers just sent 214 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:09,080 Speaker 1: me this. There was an AP MVP voter who said 215 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,080 Speaker 1: he wouldn't vote for Aaron Rodgers because he refused to 216 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:15,320 Speaker 1: get the COVID shot. I can't believe this just happened, 217 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 1: but they have removed his MVP vote and he's no 218 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 1: longer allowed to vote for MVP for saying he was 219 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 1: not choosing Aaron Rodgers over the COVID shot. Now there 220 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,680 Speaker 1: is going to be backlash against them for doing that, 221 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 1: but I'm actually I can't believe I'm saying this. Bravo 222 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 1: to them, and bravo to carry Aka Maverick on her 223 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 1: vest balined over going one hundred miles an hour as 224 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 1: the planes take off.

Welcome 249 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 1: back in Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show. We're rolling through 250 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 1: the Tuesday edition of the program. Hope all of you 251 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,560 Speaker 1: are having a fantastic time. We certainly are having a 252 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: fantastic time hanging out with you and giving you the 253 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 1: latest data. We have talked about a variety of different results. 254 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 1: As we are sitting here twenty one days until the 255 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 1: midterms and exactly three weeks from today, we will be 256 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 1: able no matter where you are all over this country 257 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 1: to go have your voice heard. And some early voting 258 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: has started at many different locations and these numbers came 259 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 1: out the day before the actual debate, which was Brian 260 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 1: Kemp and Stacy Abrams was going on last night, but 261 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 1: I thought that these numbers were significant because there's been 262 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 1: such an argument about Jim Crow two point zero and 263 00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 1: everything else. And Stacy Abrams was even still making it tonight. 264 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 1: Sorry last night, but the numbers are skyrocketing. Yesterday's turnout 265 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 1: on the first day of early voting was double the 266 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 1: first day votes in the last mid term in twenty eighteen, 267 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 1: and approaching the numbers that were out there from twenty twenty, 268 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 1: just a presidential election year, just five thousand below that number. 269 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 1: And Stacy Abrams yet again is continuing to argue still 270 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 1: that voter suppression is going on in Georgia. It's just 271 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 1: a flat out why here she is saying that last night. 272 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 1: Let's be clear about ballot access and voter access. Brian 273 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 1: Kemp was the Secretary of State and he has assiduously 274 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 1: denied access to the right to vote. We know that 275 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 1: the right to vote is the only way that we 276 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 1: can make the changes we need in the state, the 277 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 1: only way we can make the changes we need in 278 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 1: this country, whether it's access to the right to an abortion, 279 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 1: the ability to take care of our families. We need 280 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 1: a governor who believes in access to the right to 281 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,440 Speaker 1: vote and not in voter suppression, which is the hallmark 282 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 1: of Brian Kemp's leadership. I mean one a lie, it's 283 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 1: it's totally untrue. But you notice this with all Democrats 284 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 1: when they talk about voter suppression. One it's it's kind 285 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 1: of a double whammy. It's a it's come at this 286 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 1: from two sides. One is is supposed to be the 287 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 1: basis for them just destroying election integrity. You know, mail 288 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 1: in ballot, same day voting, don't clear the voter rolls, 289 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 1: no ID necessary, any safeguard you could have they want 290 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:14,720 Speaker 1: to get rid of. So they just say voter suppression, 291 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 1: voter suppression so that they can get the voting process 292 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: to be the way they want, which is open to 293 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 1: and rife with fraud. The other part of it is 294 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 1: this is really just a proxy for them for racism, 295 00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 1: meaning that they just say voter suppression because you're racist 296 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 1: whose votes are being suppressed. The only voter suppression they 297 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 1: ever talk about are African Americans. That's it. So when 298 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 1: they talk about voter suppression, it's really just you're a racist, 299 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 1: you're racist, you're racist. And then as you point out 300 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,480 Speaker 1: when there is no voter suppression. If anything, there's actually 301 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 1: increased turnout and even in some of these cases, increased 302 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 1: turnout in the black community to vote after the voter 303 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 1: integrity measure passes, Clay, you know what it is still 304 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 1: according to Democrats, racism. Of course, it's their only card 305 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 1: that they can play. And Brian Kemp is going to 306 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:06,359 Speaker 1: beat Stacy Abrams very solidly in this rematch, and I'm 307 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:11,399 Speaker 1: genuinely curious to see whether Stacy Abrams will finally concede 308 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 1: when she loses this election. She lost by fifty thousand 309 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 1: votes in twenty eighteen. Buck, That's a lot of votes 310 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,679 Speaker 1: in one state. Now was a close election, but fifty 311 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:24,640 Speaker 1: thousand people is a lot in one diegle individual states. 312 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 1: She's not done running. She's gonna keep running. I think 313 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 1: you know she's gonna run for president the next time 314 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,680 Speaker 1: she gets an opportunity. And she's not. Look at Joe Biden, man, 315 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:34,919 Speaker 1: I mean, I granted the guy had his sinecure of 316 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:38,639 Speaker 1: the Delaware Senate seat for decades, but it ran for president. 317 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,160 Speaker 1: How many times? Here he is? I think she might 318 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 1: move to a new state. I'm not even kidding about 319 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:45,360 Speaker 1: that like it was, she should move to New York 320 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 1: and take Chuck Schumer's job. She would she would take 321 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 1: it by the way she'd do it, or would stun 322 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 1: me at all if she moved to a new state. 323 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:54,159 Speaker 1: But Brian Kemp is going to be re elected as 324 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 1: Georgia governor, and he teed off what we'll play this 325 00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 1: for you maybe at the end of the show before 326 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 1: we can come back to it.

Welcome 346 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 1: back in Clay, Turravis, Buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all of 347 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 1: you hanging out with us. We were talking earlier about 348 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 1: several different legal issues, and we've been talking a lot 349 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 1: about what exactly is going on when it comes to 350 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:19,480 Speaker 1: miners having gender change surgeries and that being allowed anywhere, 351 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:21,760 Speaker 1: and what the Biden administration is trying to do to 352 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: make that legal everywhere. And we've got somebody to help 353 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 1: us understand the legalities of what exactly is going on. 354 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: He is Jonathan Sermetti. He is the Tennessee Attorney General. 355 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 1: Appreciate you joining us right now, and you were part 356 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:39,439 Speaker 1: of a group of thirteen attorney generals that is trying 357 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 1: to ensure that this is not happening to minor children. 358 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 1: Explain from a legal perspective what's going on and what 359 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:51,639 Speaker 1: you all are trying to make happen, sure thing, and 360 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:54,680 Speaker 1: it's great to be here. So the letter was actually 361 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 1: it wasn't even about the substance of what's going on. 362 00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:01,919 Speaker 1: The American Medical Associate and two other big medical groups 363 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 1: had written a letter to the Department of Justice asking 364 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:09,159 Speaker 1: that they investigate and prosecute not just people who have 365 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 1: committed acts of violence are threatened violence, but people who 366 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:17,159 Speaker 1: are provoking violence against the transgender pediatric clinics. And of 367 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 1: course provoking is something that there's no legal limit on. 368 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 1: Right you say something that makes someone mad, you're not 369 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,919 Speaker 1: responsible for what they're going to do with that. But 370 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 1: this was a request by these medical organizations representing hundreds 371 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 1: of thousands of doctors saying, hey, we want you to 372 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 1: prosecute our critics. And so our letter was just saying 373 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:39,680 Speaker 1: that is not acceptable. You know, we have the First 374 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 1: Amendment in the United States. It guarantees people the right 375 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 1: to free speech, and particularly in this context, there is 376 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:51,120 Speaker 1: a desperate need for more speech. You've we've got lots 377 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 1: of questions about what's going on. You look at what 378 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 1: other countries are doing, and they're pulling back, and meanwhile, 379 00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:59,160 Speaker 1: you know the folks here who are doing it, don't 380 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 1: even want to be critics size for it, and that's 381 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 1: a problem, and obviously the Department of Justice does not 382 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 1: have the authority to do that. The same groups requested 383 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 1: that the big tech companies suppress any criticism on social media. 384 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,679 Speaker 1: So there, you know, I think that's an indication of 385 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 1: the weakness of the underpinnings of their position, that their 386 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:20,479 Speaker 1: focus is on silencing criticism rather than justifying what they're doing. So, 387 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:23,640 Speaker 1: just to be clear, Attorney General Scrimtti, what's going on 388 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 1: here is large medical associations are lobbying the Biden do 389 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 1: J to go after, intimidate, and even prosecute people for 390 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 1: provocation in speech when it comes to gender transition surgery 391 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 1: stuff going on in some of these clinics and hospitals 392 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,360 Speaker 1: for minors. Is that that is what is going on. 393 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:52,439 Speaker 1: That's exactly right, that's exactly right. So they say that 394 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 1: things like calling double mostectomies for a teenage girl, saying 395 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:02,160 Speaker 1: that that's mutilation. The implication of the letter is that's 396 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 1: the kind of provocative language that shouldn't be used. Identifying 397 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 1: hormone treatments is chemical castration. Right, They don't have a 398 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:12,879 Speaker 1: right to decide how their critics describe what they're doing. 399 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,719 Speaker 1: You know, the answer to criticism in America is to 400 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 1: refute the criticism, not to silence the people who are 401 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 1: opposed to you. But instead they're running the two most 402 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:25,639 Speaker 1: powerful entities in the country, to the federal government and 403 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 1: the big tech companies and saying, hey, shut down this criticism. Jonathan, 404 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,480 Speaker 1: you have kids. I have kids. Buck will probably have 405 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:38,359 Speaker 1: kids sooner rather than later, we hope when you think 406 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 1: about the idea of hey, you can't get a tattoo 407 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:45,160 Speaker 1: until you're eighteen years old, you can't buy a beer 408 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 1: until you're twenty one many places, you can barely rent 409 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 1: a car until you're twenty five. But we're letting fourteen 410 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 1: year olds get double missectomies because they think they're boys. 411 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 1: How is this not child abuse? And is this some 412 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 1: thing that legislatures in your mind? Because this came right 413 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,120 Speaker 1: in the backyard here of where you and I live, 414 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:09,680 Speaker 1: where Vanderbilt University was uncovered to be doing this by 415 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 1: Matt Walsh and the Daily Wire people. I mean, this 416 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 1: is crazy stuff, right, I mean, I think in Tennessee, 417 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 1: the big takeaway is the legislature found out about it. 418 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:23,640 Speaker 1: The governor found out about it, and they immediately made 419 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 1: very clear their intention to put an end to this. 420 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,480 Speaker 1: You know, there was a letter by the majority of 421 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:32,679 Speaker 1: the House of Representatives that went out to Vanderbilt, and 422 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 1: in response to Vanderbilt stopped doing the surgical treatments. You know, 423 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 1: I have concerns about the long term impact of hormone 424 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 1: treatments and whether that's being accurately described, whether the potential 425 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,159 Speaker 1: side effects are being clearly conveyed to people who undergo 426 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 1: those treatments. You know, certainly the surgery is irreversible, but 427 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,159 Speaker 1: I think you know, there's there's evidence out there that 428 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 1: even the hormone treatments have significant effects that have been 429 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 1: maybe glossed over. And it's scary when you look at it. 430 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:06,359 Speaker 1: You know, there's a lot of evidence that this is 431 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,520 Speaker 1: ramped up radically in the last ten years. Right. It 432 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 1: used to be a very very very small number of 433 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:14,879 Speaker 1: kids who are dealing with these problems, and all of 434 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 1: a sudden you see clusters popping up. And when you 435 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 1: see it clustering like that, and you see the big, 436 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,399 Speaker 1: the big increase in overall numbers, I mean takeaway is 437 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 1: there's some sort of external factor at work. Separate from 438 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 1: any sort of inherent medical condition, and I think we 439 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 1: need to be really worried about just the radical increase 440 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: in this and about the fact that your reversible treatments 441 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 1: are being given to kids who aren't in a position 442 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:41,920 Speaker 1: to make a I mean it. You know, we don't 443 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:45,200 Speaker 1: trust kids to make a lot of decisions, and this 444 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 1: is about as serious a decision as you can make 445 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:53,119 Speaker 1: being a Tennessee Attorney General. Jonathan Scermetti, and mister Attorney General, 446 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 1: what role do you have in legal protection for children 447 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 1: from what is certainly something we are growing the show 448 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 1: a social contagion, unproven science at best, often ideologically driven, 449 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:14,160 Speaker 1: and it is irreversible damage for so many of these children. 450 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:16,639 Speaker 1: So you know, if you can pass laws for a 451 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 1: drinking age, you can pass laws for any number of 452 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 1: age related issues. What do you think the role of 453 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:26,879 Speaker 1: the law should be in protecting kids from some of 454 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 1: the gender transition surgery phenomena that we are seeing right now? Well, 455 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 1: there are really three things that we can do in 456 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:38,240 Speaker 1: my office. So first is enforced the state's laws, and 457 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:40,919 Speaker 1: you know we have some state laws relating to these issues. 458 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 1: We're going to have more. I mean, every indication from 459 00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:45,959 Speaker 1: the governor and the legislature is we're going to have 460 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 1: some significant new legislation on this next session, so we'll 461 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:52,159 Speaker 1: be in a position to enforce those and to defend 462 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 1: those laws. The second thing is consumer protection. You know, 463 00:25:57,560 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 1: there are a lot of people who are making money 464 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 1: off it, and to the extent that there are representations 465 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,359 Speaker 1: being made about the effects of this stuff or the 466 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:09,200 Speaker 1: lack of side effects of this stuff, we can look 467 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:12,359 Speaker 1: into that. We looked into the big pharma companies for opioids, 468 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:16,679 Speaker 1: we found rampant misrepresentations. We held them accountable. We have 469 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 1: huge amounts of money coming into this state now, and 470 00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:21,680 Speaker 1: I know every other attorney general did the same thing, 471 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:24,679 Speaker 1: going after people for lying about that. Well, if there 472 00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 1: are lies being told about the different treatments available, there's 473 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: the opportunity for big liability there as well. And then 474 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 1: the third thing we can do is protect the dialogue 475 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,639 Speaker 1: and make sure that there isn't that kind of external 476 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 1: suppression of points of view, so that just because the 477 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 1: establishment position is that this is all fine and it 478 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:46,840 Speaker 1: doesn't need to be questioned, that doesn't mean that people 479 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:50,359 Speaker 1: have questions can be shut down. Jonathan, last question for 480 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 1: you and Buck and I were talking about this earlier 481 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:55,600 Speaker 1: in the show. You just mentioned state attorney generals getting 482 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:59,240 Speaker 1: involved on opioids. Certainly, state attorney generals got involved on 483 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 1: big tobacco based on fraudulent health claims that were made. 484 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 1: Why shouldn't state attorney generals also get involved based on 485 00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:12,920 Speaker 1: the misrepresentations potential fraud from Fiser and Maderna and maybe 486 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 1: Johnson and Johnson as well, about these COVID shots. The 487 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:19,359 Speaker 1: claims that they made are not true. Why shouldn't there 488 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 1: be a state attorney general investigation, maybe a group of 489 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:26,679 Speaker 1: state attorney generals filing lawsuits to try to figure out 490 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,440 Speaker 1: what was known about these shots in the same way 491 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 1: for tobacco and opioids, Given that there are it appears 492 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 1: a lot of deletarious health effects, and also there were 493 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 1: mandates that guaranteed these companies tens of billions of dollars 494 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 1: in profits. So I mean, I think there is a 495 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 1: lot of evidence out there about side effects. I have 496 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 1: to look at that because I know there was a 497 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,359 Speaker 1: lot of federal legislation and federal regulation at the time, 498 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 1: and I don't know if that interferes with the consumer 499 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 1: protection authority that we have. So I'd have to look 500 00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:00,680 Speaker 1: into that before making any commitments. That sounds like something 501 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,439 Speaker 1: that state attorney generals could end up having conversations. I mean, 502 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:05,440 Speaker 1: I assume you guys have conference calls every now and 503 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:08,359 Speaker 1: then to talk about things that aren't just an apropos 504 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:11,880 Speaker 1: for your individual states but might also implicate other neighboring 505 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:15,960 Speaker 1: states and beyond. Yeah, we have conversations all the time 506 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 1: about potential work to be done, and if there's a 507 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:24,399 Speaker 1: context where there are misrepresentations being made, particularly in the 508 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 1: pharmaceutical context. I mean we've you know, we've done a 509 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:31,240 Speaker 1: number of cases involving not just opioids, but various other 510 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 1: medical devices and medical products. You know, if there's evidence 511 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 1: of misrepresentation and there's not some other federal obstacle where 512 00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 1: federal legislation or the Department of Health and Human Services 513 00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 1: has somehow given a pass, that's certainly something we'd be 514 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 1: interested in. Appreciate the time. Thank you for fighting the 515 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:53,040 Speaker 1: battle on behalf of so many kids all over the 516 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,959 Speaker 1: country and making sure that we protect them through their adolescence. 517 00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:00,720 Speaker 1: Thank you.

You can check it out, 542 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 1: going down some things, going into depth, and some stories 543 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 1: that we either touched on or didn't touch at all. 544 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 1: Today Clay is doing a post show on the Twitter 545 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 1: until Lelan buys it, and then it's going to be 546 00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 1: just an extravaganza. Can you imagine how much more fun 547 00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 1: Twitter will be, Clay when you no longer have the 548 00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 1: even possibility. It seems that's what we're all hoping for 549 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:48,480 Speaker 1: of censorship, throttling, shadow banning, any of that stuff. It 550 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:52,160 Speaker 1: Twitter's staff has been notified their stock is on lock. 551 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: Looks like this is going to happen. Yeah, Elon Musk 552 00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,320 Speaker 1: fifty four dollars and twenty cents to share, stock trading 553 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:02,160 Speaker 1: up around fifty two. It pears that the close of 554 00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 1: this purchase is going to go through, and then the 555 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:09,040 Speaker 1: Elon Musk will take Twitter private and will be charged 556 00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 1: with trying to develop and build a company that is 557 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:17,600 Speaker 1: far more profitable, efficient, and hopefully also far more welcoming 558 00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:20,840 Speaker 1: to debate and not as rigged in favor of the 559 00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 1: blue check left wing. And I am fascinated to see, 560 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:27,600 Speaker 1: if you question, whether they recognize how rigged the game 561 00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 1: is in their favor. That's why the blue check left 562 00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 1: wing brigade is fighting so hard. What would an algorithm 563 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 1: look like that just provides honest opportunity for all to 564 00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 1: share their opinion, as opposed to constantly bringing forth the 565 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:48,200 Speaker 1: scale of justice on side of far left wing opinions. 566 00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 1: I think it could really alter in a substantial way 567 00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:55,720 Speaker 1: the national discourse in this country. I really do, because 568 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 1: so many people who are in the information economy, like 569 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:02,480 Speaker 1: US media world, use Twitter as an arbiter of what 570 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 1: people really think, and in reality, Twitter is not representative 571 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 1: of the country at all. And I think that could 572 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:13,720 Speaker 1: change the national discourse in a big way. So then 573 00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:16,760 Speaker 1: there's this other story, this guy. There's a couple of 574 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 1: things here, Clay that I have to run by you, 575 00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 1: James Cordon. All right, he makes according to the Daily Mail. 576 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 1: Now this isn't the point of the story. But I'm 577 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:30,600 Speaker 1: just I'm aghast at this, And I'm a capitalist and 578 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 1: people make with the market shall bear. But a lot 579 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:35,680 Speaker 1: of times here just you find out they're like friends 580 00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:38,959 Speaker 1: with the CEO of some big corporation and that owns 581 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 1: the media company, and they're getting overpaid. James cordenicks thirty 582 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 1: six million dollars a year. Okay, according to Daily Mail, 583 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,520 Speaker 1: thirty six million dollars a year. Like, if you had 584 00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 1: told me ten or fifteen, I'd be like, yeah, so 585 00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:51,080 Speaker 1: does Trevor Noah, so too. A lot of the thirty 586 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,719 Speaker 1: six million that's I don't even believe that, Like, I 587 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,400 Speaker 1: refuse to believe that this late night host makes that 588 00:32:56,440 --> 00:33:00,440 Speaker 1: amount of money. But even besides that, do you know 589 00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:04,680 Speaker 1: the restaurant Balthazar, I've never been. Yeah. So it's owned 590 00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:09,080 Speaker 1: by this guy, Keith McNally, who's a big he's a liberal, 591 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 1: but he owned some great restaurants in New York City. 592 00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:14,680 Speaker 1: I've been to a many of them. Balthazar, by the way, 593 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,400 Speaker 1: is the name of one of the three wise men 594 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:21,520 Speaker 1: who went to see the baby Jesus. And also a 595 00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:26,600 Speaker 1: very large bottle of wine. It's a size. This is 596 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:30,720 Speaker 1: what I'm here for, the fun. That's an incredible extraneous 597 00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 1: knowledge there. That's what I do. But at Balthasar Restaurant, 598 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 1: which is a famous Keith McNally joined Um. James Corden 599 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:43,040 Speaker 1: screamed at a staff because his wife ordered an egg 600 00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:48,440 Speaker 1: yolk only omelet and there was some egg white in 601 00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:53,560 Speaker 1: his egg yolk only omelet, and he allegedly like, yell, 602 00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 1: do I have to do your bleeping job for you? 603 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 1: And you got really verbally abusive with the staff, and 604 00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 1: every everybody knows this. You see somebody who's abusive to 605 00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:05,160 Speaker 1: people that they think they can get away with it, 606 00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 1: meaning that you know, they think that there'll be no consequence. 607 00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:09,959 Speaker 1: Is therefore all you have to know about a person. 608 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,240 Speaker 1: Everyone knows this is not some like bit of wisdom. 609 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:17,440 Speaker 1: Everyone's very aware of this. People who mistreat you know, waiters, servers, 610 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:20,719 Speaker 1: cab drivers, people who work for them, whatever, it's all 611 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:22,640 Speaker 1: you have to know about him.

I think it is of where 619 00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:50,400 Speaker 1: the word comes from. Point here being clay, you always 620 00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:54,400 Speaker 1: got to assume all MIC's are on, all cameras are rolling. 621 00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:57,600 Speaker 1: And he got called out on social media by the 622 00:34:57,600 --> 00:34:59,560 Speaker 1: owner of this restaurant. It's now a big news story. 623 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,319 Speaker 1: Can't even if you're making thirty six million year to 624 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:05,200 Speaker 1: be a mediocre funny man, you can't be a jerk. 625 00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:08,720 Speaker 1: Maybe James Gordon was getting blamed by his wife because 626 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:11,760 Speaker 1: her meal wasn't right to tie in with an earlier story, 627 00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,200 Speaker 1: and this was his way of apologizing to her for 628 00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 1: the meal not being good. Speaking of apologies, this is 629 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,920 Speaker 1: a perfect segue. Joe Biden just had a rally and 630 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:23,040 Speaker 1: I want you to listen.
