1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:05,960
Speaker 1: Thursday edition Clay Travis buck Sexton Show. We are off

2
00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:11,440
Speaker 1: and running many different stories to be tracking reports that

3
00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 1: Trump was prepared, as we talked about yesterday, to strike

4
00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:19,280
Speaker 1: Iran and then at the last possible moment called off

5
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:23,520
Speaker 1: an attack after Iran promised that they would not execute

6
00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 1: any of the protesters, and that that request came at

7
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 1: the behest of Saudi Arabia other Middle Eastern countries. We

8
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:36,960
Speaker 1: will continue to follow that Greenland drama.

9
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 2: We will discuss Kamala Harris has got a.

10
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 1: New eight million dollar home, probably from which she will

11
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 1: be planning her big presidential campaign. That will get me

12
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 1: another fantastic steak dinner at the expensive Buck Section. But

13
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 1: we begin with an actual serious and dark story that

14
00:00:55,040 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 1: continues to unspool itself from Minneapolis, where another ICE shooting

15
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:07,759
Speaker 1: happened last night because another ICE agent was attacked multiple

16
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 1: different individuals reportedly attacking an ICE agent he felt compelled

17
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:15,600
Speaker 1: to fire as they resisted arrest, he hit someone in

18
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 1: the leg. Protests swept through Minneapolis yet anew and there

19
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 1: were ICE vehicles that were torn asunder, different documents that

20
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 1: were stolen, Reports that a weapon was stolen from inside

21
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 1: of a ICE vehicle. It has become downright nasty in

22
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 1: Minneapolis on a level frankly that does not exist anywhere

23
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:45,120
Speaker 1: else in the country. And we have Attorney General Pam Bondi,

24
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 1: who weighed in on what is going on there, and

25
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 1: this is what she said.

26
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 3: In Minnesota, we had six prosecutors who suddenly decided they

27
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 3: didn't want to support the men and women in Ice.

28
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 3: One of them was busy doing a photo shoot with

29
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 3: the New York Times while Ice was out there risking

30
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 3: their lives. So they came they said, we want to resign,

31
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 3: but we want to use our annual leave up until April,

32
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 3: meaning they wanted the taxpayers to pay for them to

33
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 3: go on vacation because they decided they didn't want to

34
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 3: support law enforcement. So the breaking news tonight, I fired

35
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 3: them all. They're fired from the office. And our US

36
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 3: attorney there Rosen, he's great. He was just confirmed three

37
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 3: months ago, so he has his hands full. And that's

38
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,800
Speaker 3: what we're facing around the country, the deep state in

39
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:36,080
Speaker 3: many of these offices.

40
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 1: Okay, Tim Walls is telling everybody, the governor of Minnesota,

41
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 1: pull out your phones and record everything that's going on.

42
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 2: Buck.

43
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 1: This feels like an eerie echo of what happened in

44
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: twenty twenty. You and I have talked about this a

45
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 1: great deal that in the wake of the BLM protests,

46
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 1: what happened was people said, oh, police officers are the problem,

47
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 1: They're the reason, and there's violence in this country. Police

48
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 1: officers were attacked, sometimes physically, often verbally, certainly in the

49
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 1: larger court of public opinion, by Democrats who did not

50
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 1: want prisoners to be put kept in prison cells and

51
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 1: did not want violent criminals to be arrested. Now, six

52
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 1: years later, roughly, it feels to me quite clear that

53
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 1: ICE is being targeted in Minneapolis in the same way.

54
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 1: And I think President Trump, who said I may have

55
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 1: to put the Insurrection Act in play, I think he

56
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:34,560
Speaker 1: has an opportunity now to try to stomp this out

57
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 1: before it spreads and before we get worse aspects like

58
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 1: this nationwide. I think he needs to surge resources. I

59
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 1: think he needs to send a message that didn't happen

60
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 1: frankly in the early days of BLM, that violence is unacceptable,

61
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 1: that we're going to arrest people who engage in violence

62
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 1: against ICE officers, and we cannot allow what happened in

63
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 1: twenty twenty to replicate itself back in the summer of

64
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 1: twenty twenty. It feels a little bit like the early

65
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 1: stages of potentially something similar.

66
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 4: Well, this is why on truth Social Trump has written

67
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 4: the following, If the corrupt politicians of Minnesota don't obey

68
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 4: the law and stop the professional agitators and insurrectionists from

69
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 4: attacking the patriots of Ice, who are only trying to

70
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 4: do their job, I will institute the Insurrection Act, which

71
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 4: many presidents have done before me. Clay, I think he should. Yes,

72
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 4: I think that this is a pivotal moment. This is

73
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 4: a defining moment for whether we are a rule of

74
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 4: law country. Democrats, the Democrat base of Biden, Kamala, etc.

75
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:49,839
Speaker 4: The lawlessness of illegal immigration they have embraced. They do

76
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:55,279
Speaker 4: not get to nullify federal law enforcement efforts. Imagine, Clay,

77
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 4: what the response would have been if there had if

78
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 4: we had had people ambushing FBI officers who are going

79
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 4: in at pre dawn raids for nonviolent j sixers. Imagine

80
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:12,720
Speaker 4: what the Democrat But I think the Democrats would have

81
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 4: said to the FBI just opened fire on them.

82
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 2: I mean, I honestly think they would have.

83
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 4: They would have been fined with lethal force in that situation,

84
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,360
Speaker 4: and unfortunately, I think some of those FBI officials would

85
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:23,359
Speaker 4: have done it because their scumbacks. Some of them have

86
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 4: been fired thanks to UH the last year, but Clay

87
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 4: the Insurrection Act. This is clearly a organized and planned

88
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 4: out and widespread effort to undermine the rule of law

89
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 4: and to stop the administration from effectively conducting these operations

90
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:52,600
Speaker 4: when it comes to immigration enforcement. Whatever resources are necessary,

91
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 4: are are should be deployed. Whatever the federal government needs

92
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 4: to do here. You know, we've seen this in the past.

93
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 4: We've seeing how they'll send soldiers to the schoolhouses with

94
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:03,599
Speaker 4: Civil Rights Act.

95
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 2: Whatever they got to do here, they gotta do.

96
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 1: Is it fair to say that Trump one point zero

97
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 1: maybe the most disappointing decision that was made not situation

98
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:18,159
Speaker 1: that arose, but decision that was made was not aggressively

99
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,840
Speaker 1: enough trying to stamp out the BLM protests.

100
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 2: I think if you go back.

101
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 1: In time summer of twenty twenty, I think the Trump

102
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,600
Speaker 1: team made the decision that this was going to burn

103
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:31,240
Speaker 1: itself out more rapidly than it did. And unfortunately, what

104
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,160
Speaker 1: we got was actual burning of so many different cities.

105
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,359
Speaker 1: And like I said, you can go back. The data

106
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:36,920
Speaker 1: is clear.

107
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,600
Speaker 2: Twenty twenty. Twenty twenty one.

108
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,480
Speaker 1: Murder rates skyrocketed all over the country as police were

109
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 1: not allowed to do their job. My concern is that

110
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,279
Speaker 1: we are seeing the same kind of opposition to ICE

111
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 1: that we saw to police in twenty twenty. Let's be honest,

112
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 1: a lot of times it's difficult when there's a police

113
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 1: raid going on, or an FBI raid going on, or

114
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 1: an ICE raid going going on, to know exactly who

115
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:06,280
Speaker 1: the authorities are that are conducting that raid. And so

116
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 1: I think Trump has to come in aggressively. We saw

117
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:12,120
Speaker 1: him do it, and I think he set the tone

118
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 1: in the agenda and the precedent in LA. It wasn't

119
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 1: that long ago, Buck, Remember when the way moos were

120
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 1: burning and they were throwing things at police officers and

121
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 1: at ICE agents like crazy, and you had Mayor Karen

122
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:28,679
Speaker 1: Bath speaking out about how unacceptable it was. Trump surge

123
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 1: support for ICE agents in Los Angeles, and by and

124
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 1: large that story vanished. They put in place the rule

125
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: of law. Now they file lawsuits, and they said, oh,

126
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 1: remember Cavin Newsom said Trump can't call out the National Guard.

127
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 1: He doesn't have this authority. Clearly does he has the

128
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 1: authority to call it out. Minneapolis has emerged as the

129
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 1: flashpoint I think of far left wing activism anywhere in

130
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 1: the country. Tim Walls and Mayor Fry are encouraging this

131
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 1: in Minneapolis. I think President Trump needs to surge law

132
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 1: enforcement resources and needs to send the message we're not

133
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 1: letting this spread. Ice is going to do their job.

134
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,320
Speaker 1: We've got their back, and we're going to continue to

135
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 1: implement the raids and policies that were already in place.

136
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 1: This is, to me a crucible decision for the President.

137
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 4: It's also very obviously where the Democrats believe they will

138
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 4: break the back of this administration and turn the tide

139
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 4: just in time for the midterms. Yes, they think that

140
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 4: they can do two things here. One, energize the Democrat base.

141
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:35,000
Speaker 4: Get them all, Oh, we're the new civil rights heroes

142
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 4: and we're they're standing up for illegals in some cases,

143
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 4: as people are preventing arrests of like rapists and pedophiles

144
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 4: and murderers and gang members, and they think they're heroes

145
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,959
Speaker 4: for this, which is completely insane. But that's where the

146
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 4: Democrat base is. This is all that got. I mean,

147
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:51,640
Speaker 4: they're not going to win on on women can have penises.

148
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 4: I mean, we saw that at the Supreme Court. That's

149
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,320
Speaker 4: actually which is the strong basis of the Democrat party too.

150
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,560
Speaker 4: There it turns out that's actually not true Democrats, and

151
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 4: you can and keep saying it's true, but it's still

152
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 4: not true.

153
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 2: And we're not.

154
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:05,839
Speaker 4: Going to change our minds on this one. So they

155
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,679
Speaker 4: think that immigration is where they can make their stand,

156
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 4: and they also know that this is where Trump cannot

157
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:16,559
Speaker 4: break his compact with his voters this time around. First administration,

158
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 4: first time, some bumps, some lessons, everything else.

159
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:20,199
Speaker 2: This is it.

160
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 4: Trump's got this and this term only to figure this out.

161
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 4: And that's why I think that whatever it takes to

162
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 4: dutifully and faithfully enforce these laws in Minneapolis and elsewhere

163
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:36,120
Speaker 4: is what the administration should do. I think Trump knows

164
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 4: this is an all in moment for his agenda and

165
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 4: for his second term.

166
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 2: No doubt. And so again we will see.

167
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:48,080
Speaker 1: And unfortunately, I think what you are seeing is the

168
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 1: mayor of Minneapolis and the Governor of Minnesota, Tim Walls

169
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:56,559
Speaker 1: and Fry, Jacob Fry, they have made ice agents targets.

170
00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 1: They are encouraging people to target them. I hate to

171
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 1: say it, But unfortunately it feels self evident that this

172
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 1: is going to happen. Buck, somebody in Minneapolis is going

173
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 1: to open fire on ICE agents. That is going to happen.

174
00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,079
Speaker 1: It feels inevitable to me, all of you know it,

175
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,959
Speaker 1: because they are encouraging their crazy supporters, their.

176
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,200
Speaker 2: Base to engage in this kind of behavior.

177
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 4: Remember that lunatic BLM supporter who killed I think it

178
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 4: was five cops in Dallas, yep. And many of us

179
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 4: had been saying, they're calling for violence against cops. This

180
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 4: is going to get out of control. They're calling not

181
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 4: only are they calling for violence against ICE. And this

182
00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,240
Speaker 4: is from across the board others. Because when you say

183
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 4: someone is a Gestapo, every movie we've ever seen, what

184
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 4: do you want to happen to the Gestapo agents? And

185
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 4: sometimes it does? Right that Inglorious Bastard's movie or whatever, Right,

186
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 4: but what do you want to happen? You want someone

187
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 4: to take out the evil Gestapo guy Indiana Jones? What

188
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 4: do you want the Nazis face is to be melted off?

189
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,559
Speaker 4: And all that. This is so when you're calling people

190
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 4: Gestapo and Nazis and SS, which is what they're calling ICE,

191
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:04,079
Speaker 4: and I mean members of Congress.

192
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 2: You want bad.

193
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 4: Things to happen to them, Yes, And not only do

194
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 4: they want bad things to happen to them if an

195
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 4: ice agent, God forbid, but if an ice agent is

196
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 4: killed in the conduct of his duty, you'll go on

197
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 4: blue sky if you want that night they'll be. They'll

198
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 4: be maniac commal of voters celebrating it all over the internet,

199
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:24,959
Speaker 4: all over the inn The people that pretended to care

200
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 4: so much about the rule of law.

201
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 2: Oh, the insurrection January sixth.

202
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:32,559
Speaker 4: All of a sudden, law enforcement they they will celebrate

203
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:34,840
Speaker 4: the murder of a law enforcement officer if it happens

204
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:35,959
Speaker 4: all over the internet.

205
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 2: Clay, you know it, and I know it. And that's

206
00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 2: there take in this country to.

207
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:43,559
Speaker 1: They're putting targets on all of them. The behavior is unacceptable.

208
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 1: And again the fact that Minneapolis is sort of the

209
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:51,079
Speaker 1: hornet's nest of opposition, I think we have to send

210
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:53,960
Speaker 1: a message that this is unacceptable. We can't allow it

211
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 1: to spiral and spread. We saw what Trump did in

212
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 1: la I think it was effective, and the same thing

213
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 1: needs to happen in Minneapolis. I actually think Buck the

214
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 1: best advantage we have in Minneapolis right now. It's going

215
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 1: to sound crazy, is that it's super cold, because when

216
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 1: the George Floyd BLM protests began it was May. It

217
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,360
Speaker 1: was May of twenty twenty, weather was getting better. You've

218
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,719
Speaker 1: talked about the fact that protesters by and large show

219
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 1: up in bigger numbers when the weather is good and

220
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:26,400
Speaker 1: it's super cold in Minneapolis. Notwithstanding the reaction and the

221
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 1: opposition that we're seeing right now, I think it's easier

222
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:33,199
Speaker 1: to tamp down this behavior right now than it would

223
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,160
Speaker 1: be in May or June. I should expect it, though,

224
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,320
Speaker 1: because we're going into an election year. The timing on

225
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 1: this is not coincidental.

226
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:41,640
Speaker 4: It's like we were there for the inauguration and we

227
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:43,719
Speaker 4: saw that sad protest that we've talked about in the

228
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 4: show before, the old ladies with their teeth chattering, all

229
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 4: ten of them like free.

230
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 2: Apple of mea free Palestine.

231
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,440
Speaker 1: Almost exactly one year ago today, we were doing the

232
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:59,080
Speaker 1: inauguration trip to Washington, d C. And that was what

233
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,680
Speaker 1: we were seeing was exactly that situation.

234
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:05,960
Speaker 4: I can't feel my toes, but trans rights are human rights.

235
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 2: You know.

236
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 4: It was a sad, sad spectacle out there. So yes,

237
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,400
Speaker 4: protesting and freezing weather is certainly less fun of all

238
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:14,520
Speaker 4: the investments that I've made in the last decade or so,

239
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 4: buying it, owning gold, it's gotta be top five. In fact,

240
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 4: here I'll tell you something. I just bought more gold.

241
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 4: In fact, I just sent through the wire. I've got

242
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:25,240
Speaker 4: this underway right now thanks to my friends at Birch

243
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 4: Gold Group. Because I'm a believer. I understand right now,

244
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:30,680
Speaker 4: you're like, gold's gone up so much, sixty percent last

245
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 4: year alone. Yeah, but there's a reason why it's It's

246
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 4: not because stocks dropped off so much, right there was

247
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 4: a lot of move in the markets that was positive

248
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,680
Speaker 4: last year. It's because the long term thesis for gold

249
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 4: remains strong. So if you're a long term holder, I'm

250
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:45,200
Speaker 4: not saying, you know, get in and get out like

251
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,400
Speaker 4: short term stuff. If you're a long term precious metals

252
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,400
Speaker 4: guy like I am, gold and silver, Birch Gold Group

253
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 4: is here for you.

254
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 2: They make it so easy.

255
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,000
Speaker 4: Like I said, I just went through this process with

256
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,840
Speaker 4: them yesterday and it's so streamlined.

257
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,840
Speaker 2: They want to know exactly what kind of size.

258
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 4: In your portfolio you're looking for, and they want long

259
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 4: term customers because their believers in gold too. So I

260
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,280

291

Speaker 2: I have great Yankees.

292
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:37,760
Speaker 4: Catcher, and here we have that feeling because a member

293
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 4: of Congress has returned, you will recall to what a

294
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 4: previous member of Congress said. I think it was back

295
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:47,560
Speaker 4: in twenty eighteen when AOC was leading the charge on

296
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 4: abolish ice. You aren't you seeing the connections here? My

297
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:58,600
Speaker 4: friends Trump's first term. What was really the first thing

298
00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 4: that wasn't Russia Kalouzion where they really dug in. Now

299
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 4: that was all a fabrication, as we know, that was

300
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 4: a lie. It was deep state soft coup and all

301
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:13,360
Speaker 4: of that. But it was on immigration, Clay that they

302
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,240
Speaker 4: made their first real stand against Trump policy and had

303
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 4: to do with the family separation policy. That was the thing,

304
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,720
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, and it was AOC remember that in

305
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:28,800
Speaker 4: addressed all in white crying holding the fence, and you

306
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 4: started to hear abolish ICE was this slogan. That was

307
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 4: the phrase, We're going to abolish. The problem with that,

308
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,640
Speaker 4: of course, is why wouldn't you get rid of the

309
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 4: law that ICE is enforcing? Well, because then you'd have

310
00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:46,720
Speaker 4: to just be open borders and everybody would know it.

311
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 2: So what they want to do is get rid.

312
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:53,080
Speaker 4: Of the agency that enforces this law, but keep the

313
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 4: law on the books, because then you won't have to

314
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:58,360
Speaker 4: have the political conversation and members of Congress won't have

315
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 4: to take vote to show that they open borders. Anyway

316
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 4: that it fizzled, but it is very much now back

317
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 4: this time not because of border enforcement, because Trump got

318
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,080
Speaker 4: that one down. He figured out, you want to talk

319
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:14,200
Speaker 4: about learning from the first time out. Trump two point

320
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:18,560
Speaker 4: zero has locked this border down. It is secure, uh,

321
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:22,159
Speaker 4: Trump one point zho. They got them on the family

322
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 4: separation issue because this was all being exploited. It was

323
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:29,080
Speaker 4: all parts of immigration law that were there's complexities in this,

324
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,639
Speaker 4: but basically they figured out, if you show up with

325
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 4: a kid, you get to just come into the country.

326
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:35,360
Speaker 2: So then emer starts showing up with the kids.

327
00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 4: They go, well, we're gonna start, you know, processing the parents,

328
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 4: and we're gonna and the kids are gonna be held

329
00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:41,159
Speaker 4: in a separate facility. And then, oh my gosh, you're

330
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 4: breaking a family whole thing.

331
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:44,120
Speaker 2: Clay. I bring this up.

332
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 4: Because this guy who's a member of Congress, which is

333
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:50,320
Speaker 4: even for Congress, pretty hard to believe when you when

334
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 4: you check this guy out shre Thanadar.

335
00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 2: You see this guy, Oh yeah, he.

336
00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,840
Speaker 1: With the ridiculous hair for people who have I mean

337
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 1: it's maybe not saying, but I mean, this guy looks

338
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 1: his hair maybe the most ridiculous wig in all of Congress.

339
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 4: It's pretty remarkable. He also speaks with a very thick

340
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:16,720
Speaker 4: foreign accent, Okay, and he is. So you have the

341
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 4: guy with probably the thickest foreign accent in Congress telling

342
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 4: everybody that we need to get rid of the agency

343
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:29,240
Speaker 4: that enforces immigration law. Cut twelve wants to abolish ICE.

344
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:33,360
Speaker 7: Listen to this, Ice is beyond reform. Ice is totally

345
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:39,440
Speaker 7: out of control. And this week I intend to introduce

346
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 7: a bill to abolish ice. We need to make ice

347
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:45,400
Speaker 7: go away.

348
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,760
Speaker 4: I just want to know, come on, Clay, that they

349
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:53,640
Speaker 4: did this before, though this isn't the first time we've

350
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:57,760
Speaker 4: been here. Abolish ice so everyone gets to your question

351
00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:00,080
Speaker 4: before about how many illegals.

352
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 2: Everyone gets to stay.

353
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, the Democrat position, you're increasingly seeing all that stuff

354
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 4: about how they want to enforce the law too, and

355
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,119
Speaker 4: they want some cre They just the immigration system's broken.

356
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:11,840
Speaker 4: They want to fix it. No, actually they want it

357
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 4: to be broken. They broke it.

358
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 2: Well, they want open borders.

359
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,120
Speaker 1: And I think that guy we just heard from if

360
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,600
Speaker 1: I'm not mistaken team in New York, you can research it.

361
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,600
Speaker 1: I think he was the first one to introduce impeachment

362
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,400
Speaker 1: proceedings against President Trump. I mean, obviously did not get

363
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:31,560
Speaker 1: very many votes, but that is the reality under which

364
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 1: this motivation is occurring, because Trump has for the first time.

365
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw this story out there

366
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 1: for the first time. I think in several generations. I

367
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:47,040
Speaker 1: think going back to before Reagan, there were fewer people

368
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 1: that came into the country during Trump two point zero,

369
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,280
Speaker 1: like we actually had to decline in migrants.

370
00:19:54,119 --> 00:20:00,400
Speaker 4: In entire net. Migration play is negative in Latin last

371
00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:05,000
Speaker 4: year for the first time since the nineteen twenties, which is.

372
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,600
Speaker 2: An incredible data point.

373
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:11,400
Speaker 4: Yes here, I've actually got the numbers monthly flow about

374
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,600
Speaker 4: I've got the monthly flow of net immigration fifty It's

375
00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:19,120
Speaker 4: basically been fifty thousand a year for the last thirty years,

376
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 4: and then under Biden went to two hundred thousands. Biden

377
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 4: just kicked the borders open everybody. This is what they did.

378
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,280
Speaker 4: And now with Trump, it's negative one hundred and forty

379
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:31,400
Speaker 4: five thousand per month so far in the first year.

380
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:35,359
Speaker 4: And now look the exact numbers. Tom Holman, I actually

381
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 4: saw him yesterday at the White House. Tom Holman believes

382
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:42,439
Speaker 4: that two million people roughly have self deported, that has

383
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:45,080
Speaker 4: leave the left the country on their own. And we

384
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:48,800
Speaker 4: know that there's been deportation of around six hundred thousand people.

385
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 4: So the number out there, I think that that number

386
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:55,160
Speaker 4: is based on that you just referenced, is roughly two

387
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:56,720
Speaker 4: point six million people leaving.

388
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:57,040
Speaker 2: Now.

389
00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 1: Tom Homan said that there's twenty million illegal in the country,

390
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:04,359
Speaker 1: so roughly that would mean about ten percent of the

391
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 1: illegal population left in year one. The challenge you're seeing there,

392
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:12,879
Speaker 1: if you do basic math on this is even if

393
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:16,040
Speaker 1: Trump kept the exact same pace up and the self

394
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:21,679
Speaker 1: deportation percentages remain the same. We're still basically getting to

395
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 1: a place where we're narrowly I mean, we're getting down

396
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 1: to twelve million illegals instead of twenty. It's a huge number.

397
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:34,119
Speaker 1: And this was really the calculus behind Biden opening up

398
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:37,399
Speaker 1: the border. It was that when all these people get here,

399
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 1: it basically becomes impossible to ever get them to leave.

400
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:45,520
Speaker 1: And that's the calculus. This was not a four year plan.

401
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:49,359
Speaker 1: This is a multi generational plan by which they want

402
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 1: to change the character and the populace of the United States.

403
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:58,480
Speaker 1: It's very calculated in intent, and Trump is pushing back

404
00:21:58,520 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 1: against it.

405
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 4: You have some really crazy and reckless things being said

406
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:08,000
Speaker 4: by members of Congress. For example, well one here is

407
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:12,680
Speaker 4: Hakeem Jeffries, former Speaker of the House. This has cut sixteen.

408
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,439
Speaker 4: He's just saying, he keeps repeating this thing about how

409
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:17,960
Speaker 4: they're brutalizing immigrant families play sixteen.

410
00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:21,280
Speaker 6: Clearly significant reform needs to take place as it relates

411
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:23,639
Speaker 6: to the manner in which ICE is conducting itself. Ice

412
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 6: is using taxpayer dollars to brutalize American citizens and to

413
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 6: unnecessarily and viciously target law abiding immigrant families and communities.

414
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,440
Speaker 6: The whole premise that Donald Trump's sold to the American

415
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:42,119
Speaker 6: people was that this immigration enforcement activity was going to

416
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 6: target violent felons. It's not targeting violent felons. They're targeting

417
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 6: American families, brutalizing American communities. And now as we've seen

418
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 6: killing American citizens, this is out of control.

419
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 2: Oh, this is what they rutalize.

420
00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:00,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is look, I mean Renee Good deep down

421
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:05,560
Speaker 1: when she was shot. Every Democrat politician like Haakim Jefferies

422
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 1: was excited by this. And you can say, well, Clay,

423
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:10,480
Speaker 1: you're being cruel there when you say this.

424
00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 2: Not really.

425
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 1: Axeo said they had a story this summer where they

426
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:19,920
Speaker 1: specifically laid out that Democrats were training people and they

427
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:23,080
Speaker 1: were hoping that there would be a violent act so

428
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 1: that they could use that as an argument of a

429
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 1: political nature to try to stop these ice raids from occurring.

430
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 2: This was they're hoped for action.

431
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:36,600
Speaker 1: I hate to say it, but they hope that others

432
00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 1: will be shot to They are willing to sacrifice on

433
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:45,760
Speaker 1: the altar of politics life. And it's quite clear because

434
00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:47,760
Speaker 1: then they can come out and they can say, see,

435
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:51,760
Speaker 1: this is what happens. American citizens are being brutalized and

436
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:55,160
Speaker 1: killed by Ice. This is unacceptable. This is what they

437
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,359
Speaker 1: wanted to happen. This is why they're telling everybody to

438
00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,760
Speaker 1: show up with their phones. This is why they're telling

439
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,640
Speaker 1: everybody get in the face of all these ICE agents.

440
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 2: This is why you have.

441
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 1: So many people, so many people that have decided to

442
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,160
Speaker 1: make it their life's work to show up and scream

443
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:13,919
Speaker 1: and bang pots and pans and honkhorns and insult and

444
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 1: spit on all these ICE agents out there, and they're

445
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:23,000
Speaker 1: just making the situation. Anger isolence is going to ensue.

446
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 2: And this is why I said.

447
00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:27,640
Speaker 1: Earlier in the last hour, Buck, I'm already angry because

448
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:29,879
Speaker 1: I know that ICE agents are going to get murdered.

449
00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:33,399
Speaker 1: It's just a question of when we've already seen it.

450
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:38,240
Speaker 1: They have set the kettle to boil, and it's inevitable

451
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 1: what's going to happen.

452
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:41,159
Speaker 2: You know it. I know it.

453
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:44,320
Speaker 1: Every person out there listening knows that we're going to

454
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,520
Speaker 1: turn on our televisions or we're going to look down

455
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 1: at our phones and there's going to be innocent ICE

456
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,359
Speaker 1: agents murdered. And you pointed out Buck on Blue Sky,

457
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,440
Speaker 1: they'll be tap dancing on their graves.

458
00:24:55,720 --> 00:25:01,679
Speaker 4: They're also absolutely and they're also preparing to blame ICE

459
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 4: and the murdered ICE agents for the violence that you

460
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:08,840
Speaker 4: and I both see as imminent against them. Over at CNN,

461
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:13,520
Speaker 4: Abby Phillip, the tactics of ICE that's putting them at risk.

462
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:14,680
Speaker 2: Play fourteen.

463
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:20,440
Speaker 8: DHS says that this was a targeted enforcement operation and

464
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:23,920
Speaker 8: that the ICE officer was attacked. And I do think

465
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 8: that is exactly the type of situation that we want

466
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:30,879
Speaker 8: as few of those situations as possible to transpire. And

467
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 8: yet it seems like all the time there are all

468
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:37,399
Speaker 8: kinds of interactions happening where ICE officers are put in

469
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:41,000
Speaker 8: danger and I'm not sure if it's all just because

470
00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:44,760
Speaker 8: of you know, violent people attacking them. Sometimes it's also

471
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:48,240
Speaker 8: the tactics that I think are putting them in at risk,

472
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 8: the vehicle stops, which there have been some reporting about

473
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 8: how these vehicle stops are so dangerous.

474
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:59,440
Speaker 4: The vehicle stops are dangerous because the gang members they're

475
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:01,000
Speaker 4: trying to the rest don't want.

476
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:01,639
Speaker 2: To be arrested.

477
00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:06,119
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, go fig you this is crazy stuff that is,

478
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:07,840
Speaker 4: but I'm telling you this is gonna be a thing. Well,

479
00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,159
Speaker 4: if they hadn't been in these communities, the terrible thing

480
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:12,560
Speaker 4: that you and I think is gonna happen. I agree

481
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:13,920
Speaker 4: with you. I think it's gonna happen as a matter

482
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:16,000
Speaker 4: of days. If they hadn't been in these communities, it

483
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,359
Speaker 4: would have happened. Imagine if we took that approach to

484
00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 4: straight up like gang enforcement activities by cops.

485
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:22,840
Speaker 2: Right.

486
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 4: Oh, if they hadn't been making those arrests of the

487
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:28,199
Speaker 4: bloods and the cryps, they wouldn't have had the cops

488
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 4: to shoot at in the first place.

489
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:33,440
Speaker 1: Well, this is the argument they made in Washington, d C.

490
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,960
Speaker 1: When the guy traveled across the country and killed two

491
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:40,879
Speaker 1: innocent National Guards people. I guess killed one and severely

492
00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:44,439
Speaker 1: wounded the other. I believe that's the final result. I

493
00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:46,240
Speaker 1: think the one of I think they were both from

494
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:48,199
Speaker 1: West Virginia. If I'm not mistaken, I think one of

495
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:49,760
Speaker 1: those individuals survived.

496
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:52,000
Speaker 2: They said, this.

497
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:56,200
Speaker 1: Is Trump's fault for calling out the National Guard. They

498
00:26:56,320 --> 00:27:02,040
Speaker 1: created this situation. Look, they motivated that crazy person, who,

499
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 1: if I remember correctly, was an Afghan refugee who was

500
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 1: led into the country without being soundly vetted, who lost

501
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:12,640
Speaker 1: his mind, who drove across the country and killed two

502
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:16,680
Speaker 1: or attempted to kill two innocent people, among others. When

503
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:18,880
Speaker 1: this happens with Ice, what did they immediately say? Even

504
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:22,520
Speaker 1: the media put up like, oh, look, Trump made these

505
00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 1: people targets by trying to reduce violent crime, by trying

506
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:30,639
Speaker 1: to make the city of Washington safe. You notice, Buck,

507
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:33,920
Speaker 1: you're not hearing much about how effective that has been.

508
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:37,400
Speaker 1: I'm in Washington, DC right now. City is way safer

509
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:40,919
Speaker 1: statistically than it has been almost in a generation.

510
00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 2: Nobody's talking about it.

511
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 4: This is what the left does, whether it's fighting against

512
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:53,200
Speaker 4: any kind of terrorists, fighting against crime, it's always the

513
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:56,920
Speaker 4: thing you're doing to address the problem is the real problem. Yes,

514
00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:00,480
Speaker 4: the fighting against the bad thing is the cause of

515
00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:04,879
Speaker 4: the bad thing. Classic communist tactic. Total nonsense.

516
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:08,439
Speaker 1: Yesterday I saw President Trump in the Oval Office and

517
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:12,160
Speaker 1: I actually thanked him for the impact that the surge

518
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:15,320
Speaker 1: is having in Memphis. Again, nobody's talking about it. New

519
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:20,040
Speaker 1: Orleans way safer, Washington, d C. Way safer. President wants

520
00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:22,160
Speaker 1: to go into a lot of other cities and make

521
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 1: them infinitely safer too. You'll notice when he has that success,

522
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:30,640
Speaker 1: the story just vanishes. Remember, Buck, everybody said Oh, that's

523
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 1: never gonna work. Oh, there's no way if you put

524
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:36,240
Speaker 1: more people on the streets that things are gonna get safer. Actually,

525
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:39,880
Speaker 1: things got way safer, Yes they did. I want to

526
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,360

Speaker 1: we'll get into Kamala's eight million dollar house. Maybe summon

551
00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 1: the third hour, we'll talk a little bit about Greenland.

552
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 2: I was doing some Greenland research.

553
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 1: But Caroline Levitt is right now in the White House

554
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 1: Press briefing room, and I believe, boys and girls, we

555
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:21,040
Speaker 1: have a couple of cuts of things that she just said.

556
00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 2: Let's listen.

557
00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:25,320
Speaker 10: President Trump unveiled a healthcare plan for America called the

558
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 10: Great Healthcare Plan. The Great Healthcare Plan will accomplish this

559
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:33,960
Speaker 10: through four common sense pillars. Number one, permanently lowering prescription

560
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:37,719
Speaker 10: drug prices. Congress can get this done by codifying President

561
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:41,800
Speaker 10: Trump's Historic Most Favored Nation Initiatives into law to guarantee

562
00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:45,600
Speaker 10: Americans the same low prices for prescription drugs that people

563
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 10: in other countries around the world pay. Number two, The

564
00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:52,480
Speaker 10: Great Healthcare Plan will stop sending big insurance companies billions

565
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 10: in extra taxpayer funded subsidy payments and instead send that

566
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:59,600
Speaker 10: money directly to eligible Americans to allow them to buy

567
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 10: the health insurance of their choice. Number three, the Great

568
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:07,560
Speaker 10: Healthcare Plan will maximize price transparency by requiring any healthcare

569
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:11,960
Speaker 10: provider or insurer who accepts either Medicare or Medicaid to

570
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:16,280
Speaker 10: publicly and prominently post their pricing and fees to avoid

571
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:20,640
Speaker 10: surprise medical bills. And number four holds big insurance companies

572
00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:23,920
Speaker 10: accountable right by requiring them to publish rate and coverage

573
00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:27,720
Speaker 10: comparisons upfront on their websites in plain English.

574
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:32,680
Speaker 1: Okay, so, but clearly there has been a calculated attempt

575
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,280
Speaker 1: for the start of twenty twenty six. When you look

576
00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 1: at the President with plans on home affordability, healthcare. Even

577
00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:44,640
Speaker 1: we had that big discussion about credit card interest debt,

578
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 1: the President has decided.

579
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:50,040
Speaker 2: That affordability is going to be a big part.

580
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 1: Of twenty twenty six, and I think he's recognized that

581
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 1: it may well decide the outcome of the midterm elections,

582
00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:58,880
Speaker 1: not necessarily what the data shows, but how people are

583
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 1: feeling about the day and whether it feels like he

584
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:04,640
Speaker 1: understands the concerns.

585
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:05,600
Speaker 2: Of people like them.

586
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:09,360
Speaker 4: We got smoked in the twenty eighteen midterms, and the

587
00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 4: data show that it was healthcare got smoked. Remember we're

588
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:16,160
Speaker 4: going to repeal Obamacare. We didn't repeal Obamacare, and it

589
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 4: was it was a rough one. And so again notice

590
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 4: Frump the team. They've learned lessons, which is what you want, right.

591
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 4: You want people to understand they're getting ahead of this,

592
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:31,480
Speaker 4: they're on it. And I think that really pricing and

593
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:34,680
Speaker 4: transparency and making as much of this as more of

594
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:38,480
Speaker 4: this market based is those are the basic principles you

595
00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:41,560
Speaker 4: want to increase. I mean, we have screwed healthcare up

596
00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 4: in this country so much, so badly. It's pretty astonishing

597
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:48,920
Speaker 4: actually how.

598
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:50,440
Speaker 1: And all you do is look at what it costs

599
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:54,440
Speaker 1: the government gets involved in anything, look at what education costs,

600
00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 1: look at what health care cost the more the government

601
00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 1: decides to weigh in on anything that you go look

602
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:04,000
Speaker 1: at like compare healthcare cost buck, I saw a good

603
00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:06,720
Speaker 1: graphic on this that I thought was super interesting. Compare

604
00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:11,480
Speaker 1: the pace of healthcare cost with flaskreen televisions. Do you

605
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:15,360
Speaker 1: remember a generation ago when a flatscreen television basically cost

606
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:17,400
Speaker 1: an arm and a leg I mean it felt like

607
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 1: when you got that first h D flatscreen television, it

608
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:22,520
Speaker 1: costs four or five thousand dollars?

609
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:23,720
Speaker 2: Was how much those things cost.

610
00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:26,959
Speaker 4: I remember needing help from friends in college to carry

611
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:30,000
Speaker 4: like my big ass TV up the stairs because I

612
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 4: think it weighed about one hundred and something pounds. I mean,

613
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:32,920
Speaker 4: it was a mess.

614
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 1: And now you go to Walmart, or you go to

615
00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:39,200
Speaker 1: Costco or Sam's or any of these places, you could

616
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:41,600
Speaker 1: get a forty five inch flat screen television for like

617
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:42,280
Speaker 1: two hundred buck.

618
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:43,760
Speaker 2: I mean, it's unbelievable.

619
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,520
Speaker 1: Government gets out of the way, things get cheaper, government

620
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:50,320
Speaker 1: gets involved, things get way more expensive. Unfortunately, that's a

621
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:53,640
Speaker 1: lesson that a lot of people in on Capitol Hill

622
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:57,880
Speaker 1: still haven't learned. We come back Buck Greenland, Greenland Talk

623
00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:02,120
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris, your girl one hundred and seven days. She

624
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:05,240
Speaker 1: now has an eight million dollar house in Malibu. We

625
00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:08,239
Speaker 1: will dive into both of those stories, among others, will

626
00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:10,520
Speaker 1: keep you updated on what's going on in Minneapolis as

627
00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:13,600
Speaker 1: well as we roll into the final hour Thursday edition

628
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:16,080
Speaker 1: of the program. I bet they paid her so much

629
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:17,520
Speaker 1: for that crappy book.

630
00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:20,399
Speaker 2: Even though it didn't start. This is the one.

631
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:21,799
Speaker 4: This is one of these because a lot of these

632
00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:25,439
Speaker 4: big publishers they're just run by libs or libs, and

633
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:30,080
Speaker 4: they will write a huge check to some Democrat politician

634
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:33,040
Speaker 4: just as like it's good for the cause.

635
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:34,920
Speaker 2: Yes, no way, Kama's book. I read it.

636
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:39,000
Speaker 1: It is terrible. It is terrible. The house eight million

637
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:40,200
Speaker 1: dollars she's cashing in.

638
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:41,399
Speaker 2: We'll talk about it next week.

639
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 1: Oh, welcome back in now number three Clay Travis Buck

640
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 1: Sexton Show, Thursday edition of the program. We appreciate all

641
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:50,120
Speaker 1: of you hanging out with us and what continues to

642
00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:54,600
Speaker 1: be a tumultuous crazy time with tons of different stories

643
00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:58,000
Speaker 1: that we are tracking on a minute by minute basis.

644
00:34:58,040 --> 00:34:59,839
Speaker 2: Frankly, Minneapolis.

645
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,279
Speaker 1: I heard us talking at the beginning of the show

646
00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:04,440
Speaker 1: in quite a lot already in the first couple of

647
00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:08,600
Speaker 1: hours about the disaster that is unschooling in Minneapolis in

648
00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:11,880
Speaker 1: the wake of yet another shooting where an ICE agent

649
00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 1: was attacked. I went on Sean Hannity's show last night,

650
00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:18,200
Speaker 1: Buck talked about it, and we will continue. I am

651
00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:21,800
Speaker 1: sure to update you on that story as we progress.

652
00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:24,680
Speaker 1: We're also continuing to update you on Iran reports, as

653
00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 1: we talked about in the first couple of hours that

654
00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:30,200
Speaker 1: President Trump was poised to attack yesterday and at the

655
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:34,399
Speaker 1: last moment chose not to based on the fact that

656
00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:38,160
Speaker 1: Iran made promises through third parties that they would not

657
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:42,319
Speaker 1: be conducting executions of protesters. We will see whether that

658
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,520
Speaker 1: tamps down the tempest.

659
00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:46,840
Speaker 2: In that relationship.

660
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:50,120
Speaker 1: Right now, price of oil and gas came down substantially,

661
00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:53,520
Speaker 1: as maybe there is hope that there's not going to

662
00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:55,000
Speaker 1: be attacks coming there.

663
00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:57,239
Speaker 2: As if that were not enough.

664
00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:01,399
Speaker 1: Ongoing discussion surrounding Greenland, as we have talked about during

665
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:04,920
Speaker 1: the course of the show as well, Greenland representatives, Denmark

666
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:08,600
Speaker 1: representatives in the White House yesterday trying to persuade President

667
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:11,280
Speaker 1: Trump that he did not actually need to buy Greenland

668
00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:13,600
Speaker 1: and that did not go well. And President Trump still

669
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:16,600
Speaker 1: wants to buy Greenland, as we were talking about earlier.

670
00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:18,080
Speaker 1: Maybe we'll dive into this and have a little bit

671
00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:21,200
Speaker 1: more fun with it. Do you know, Buck, what the

672
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:26,319
Speaker 1: number one part of the Greenland economy, according to what

673
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:29,000
Speaker 1: I read in the Wall Street Journal this morning, is

674
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 1: so fifty seven thousand people who live in Greenland. Obviously,

675
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:35,880
Speaker 1: there's lots of talk about the long term value of

676
00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:41,160
Speaker 1: the minerals and all the different natural resources that could

677
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:44,560
Speaker 1: be associated with Greenland, its location near the Arctic Circle,

678
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:47,600
Speaker 1: the impact of that. Trump is worried about Russia or

679
00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:50,640
Speaker 1: China ending up with Greenland and how that would impact

680
00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:53,480
Speaker 1: the overall status of the United States. All those things

681
00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:57,520
Speaker 1: are true, But right now, what is the number one

682
00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 1: part of the economy of Greenland? And based on what

683
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:02,799
Speaker 1: I read this morning in the Wall Street Journal, do

684
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:03,480
Speaker 1: you have any idea?

685
00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:07,319
Speaker 4: I mean, I know in Iceland it's the fishing industry. Yeah,

686
00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:10,440
Speaker 4: I would assume in Greenland that's a big thing. But

687
00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:13,239
Speaker 4: also mining would be the next guest that I have.

688
00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:16,759
Speaker 1: Mining is not very substantial so far, and this is

689
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:19,720
Speaker 1: very specific. According to the Wall Street Journal, it is shrimp.

690
00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:22,680
Speaker 1: It is basically so I nailed it actually out of

691
00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:27,080
Speaker 1: the gate shrimp. So we are talking about buying and

692
00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:29,160
Speaker 1: and the word is I was actually doing a little

693
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,279
Speaker 1: bit of Greenland research because I wanted to know more

694
00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:35,480
Speaker 1: about it. That basically, Denmark gives a billion dollars a

695
00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:39,440
Speaker 1: year to support everyone who lives in Greenland because the

696
00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:44,280
Speaker 1: economy is otherwise not able to suffice buck.

697
00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:46,400
Speaker 2: A huge percentage.

698
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:51,800
Speaker 1: Of people in Greenland lack running water and actually shower

699
00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:55,680
Speaker 1: by melting ice. So if you thought I just I

700
00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:57,719
Speaker 1: read that this morning in the Wall Street Journal as

701
00:37:57,719 --> 00:37:58,879
Speaker 1: I was getting ready for our show.

702
00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:00,520
Speaker 2: If you're out there now and.

703
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:03,040
Speaker 1: You're like, man, things are really tough for me, I

704
00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:06,440
Speaker 1: bet you're not showering with melted ice, which I would

705
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:11,279
Speaker 1: imagine is pretty cold and not an intentional ice bath

706
00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:15,080
Speaker 1: as it were. But I thought that was interesting about Greenland,

707
00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:17,760
Speaker 1: just kind of giving you an idea. President Trump's idea

708
00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:20,680
Speaker 1: there is not based on what Greenland is now it is,

709
00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:25,239
Speaker 1: as many developers and real estate appraisers and purchasers always do.

710
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:28,480
Speaker 1: It's a projection of what the value of Greenland might

711
00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:32,400
Speaker 1: be a generation from now, two generations, three generations. And

712
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:36,160
Speaker 1: remember Buck, and you're a history nerd too. When William

713
00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:41,040
Speaker 1: Seward bought Alaska, everyone derided the purchase of Alaska as

714
00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:45,879
Speaker 1: Seward's folly in the immediate aftermath of the Civil War,

715
00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:48,640
Speaker 1: and it ended up being one of the most brilliant

716
00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:52,719
Speaker 1: acquisitions in the history of the United States because Alaska

717
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 1: has become such a beacon of natural resources and such

718
00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:59,959
Speaker 1: an incredible value play over time. But in the short

719
00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:03,000
Speaker 1: term there have been lots of ridicule Heck, even some

720
00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:06,320
Speaker 1: people ridiculed Thomas Jefferson when he bought the Louisiana purchase

721
00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:09,800
Speaker 1: back in eighteen oh three from France. So long, forward

722
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:14,360
Speaker 1: looking is the decision here as it pertains to Greenland.

723
00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:16,640
Speaker 2: This is not a short term flip play.

724
00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:20,759
Speaker 1: As all the housing shows out there that everybody likes

725
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:23,120
Speaker 1: to watch, you know, I'm sure you've seen Buck with

726
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:25,200
Speaker 1: the guys like a painter and the wife is like

727
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:27,840
Speaker 1: a daycare worker, and their budgets like eight hundred thousand

728
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:29,759
Speaker 1: dollars for a house, and everybody's always like, how is

729
00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:32,640
Speaker 1: that possible? This is not a fixer upper flopper. This

730
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:33,600
Speaker 1: is a long term.

731
00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:39,480
Speaker 4: Play, absolutely, and real estate in so many ways has

732
00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:42,200
Speaker 4: been a good long term play. Donald Trump, more than

733
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:43,640
Speaker 4: almost anybody knows that.

734
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:45,080
Speaker 2: And I would say this play.

735
00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:49,040
Speaker 4: Maybe things are gonna get a little warmer in Greenland

736
00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 4: because there the planet there has been so warming, not

737
00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:54,719
Speaker 4: that much. It's climate change is not a catastrophe and

738
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:56,920
Speaker 4: all that stuff, But let's just say things got a

739
00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:58,719
Speaker 4: little bit warmer over time. I think it'd be great.

740
00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:01,839
Speaker 4: There's plenty of to believe it would be great. They

741
00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:04,319
Speaker 4: don't really believe in climate change, though they only believe

742
00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:06,680
Speaker 4: in climate change when it benefits them, which is my

743
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:09,680
Speaker 4: pivot point here to something that I insist we discussed

744
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:12,720
Speaker 4: for a moment. Yes, Kamala Harris, I know where you're going,

745
00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:17,600
Speaker 4: Kamala Harris. I'm going from Greenland to Malibu, Baby, I am.

746
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:20,720
Speaker 4: I am hopping a jet taking us all over the world.

747
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:23,399
Speaker 4: This is the world tour with the Buckster. We're going

748
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:27,200
Speaker 4: from Greenland to Malibu. Really, I will say, among the

749
00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:31,160
Speaker 4: most beautiful places in America, full of people with the

750
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:35,160
Speaker 4: worst politics, but Malibu is really nice. Yes, the sushi

751
00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:38,680
Speaker 4: restaurant there, the Nobu there, very very spectacular, right on

752
00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:39,120
Speaker 4: the beach.

753
00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:39,760
Speaker 2: Yep.

754
00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:42,680
Speaker 4: And here's what I'll say, Kamala Harris just bought an

755
00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:48,439
Speaker 4: eight million dollar house with her lawyer husband there.

756
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:49,839
Speaker 2: And I would note a few things.

757
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:53,080
Speaker 4: First of all, she's clearly not scared of the erosion

758
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:58,040
Speaker 4: of the beaches or the cliffs. Okay, why you're suggesting

759
00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:01,560
Speaker 4: that Kamala Harris is not actually worried at all about

760
00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:04,280
Speaker 4: climate change, because she, like all of the other super

761
00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:07,040
Speaker 4: Hollywood celebs who claimed to be worried about climate change,

762
00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:09,160
Speaker 4: is actually buying a beachside home.

763
00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:11,600
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, it's amazing. How that.

764
00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:17,040
Speaker 4: Remember when Barack Obama mister climate change is an existential

765
00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:20,080
Speaker 4: threat to America, he was he That was the big

766
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:22,680
Speaker 4: phrase of the Obama years. There was there was really

767
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:31,640
Speaker 4: an unholy and evil tripod of Obamaism, and it was healthcare, amnesty,

768
00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:35,120
Speaker 4: you know, Obamacare, amnesty, climate change. Those were the three

769
00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:36,120
Speaker 4: big things.

770
00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:38,640
Speaker 2: There. Also was was like the George Floyd.

771
00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:41,279
Speaker 4: And not George Floyd, but the BLM, you know that

772
00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:44,600
Speaker 4: stuff the first time around. But that wasn't so much

773
00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:49,279
Speaker 4: policy as messaging, or at least not a big law.

774
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:50,799
Speaker 2: Thing that they tried to pass necessarily.

775
00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:54,480
Speaker 4: Clay Obama got a probably it's like a thirty million

776
00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:57,320
Speaker 4: dollar now, but like a fifteen million dollar beachfront mansion

777
00:41:57,320 --> 00:41:58,280
Speaker 4: in Martha's Vineyard.

778
00:41:58,560 --> 00:41:59,759
Speaker 2: No one actually believes this.

779
00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:03,160
Speaker 4: I know he's been talking for a while about climate change,

780
00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:06,080
Speaker 4: has fallen out of the conversation, but this is the

781
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:09,799
Speaker 4: climate change. None of the people, the biggest advocates, believe this.

782
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:12,640
Speaker 4: They all want ocean front property and they want it

783
00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:17,480
Speaker 4: in California and Hawaii and Martha's vineyards. Low lying Martha's

784
00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:18,960
Speaker 4: Vineyard is that sea level.

785
00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:19,719
Speaker 2: They don't care.

786
00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:22,360
Speaker 4: They don't believe in any of this stuff. And Kamala

787
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:26,160
Speaker 4: also such a phony. Oh it's about rich people paying

788
00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:29,040
Speaker 4: that rich people are so bad? Well, what contributions is

789
00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:31,360
Speaker 4: Kamala made? Wrote a terrible book? Would you make me

790
00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:34,279
Speaker 4: read because you go to me? Do it on your own.

791
00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:38,239
Speaker 4: I believe that, yes, one hundred and seven days eight

792
00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:40,360
Speaker 4: million died, felt like one hundred and seven days to

793
00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:44,280
Speaker 4: read it. Eight million dollar house and this in Malibu,

794
00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:46,280
Speaker 4: I mean the most, the most you know, hoity toity,

795
00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:49,480
Speaker 4: fancy pants place in America pretty much. And look you

796
00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:52,200
Speaker 4: might say, well, Trump lives at Marlagoing. Yeah, Trump doesn't

797
00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:56,960
Speaker 4: pretend to be something he's not. Kamala is social justice warrior.

798
00:42:57,040 --> 00:42:57,760
Speaker 2: She's just been.

799
00:42:57,680 --> 00:43:00,680
Speaker 1: Enriching herself her whole life. I don't beg anybody who

800
00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:02,320
Speaker 1: decides that they want to have a nicer home. I

801
00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:04,640
Speaker 1: don't begrudge anybody who wants to live near the ocean

802
00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:07,239
Speaker 1: or near the lake, or near anywhere else. But when

803
00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:09,640
Speaker 1: you have spent much of your career, this is a

804
00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:12,239
Speaker 1: great point telling us all that the world is going

805
00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:15,440
Speaker 1: to end, and that climate change, you know, we're all

806
00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:17,440
Speaker 1: going to be under sea. And if you live in

807
00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:19,520
Speaker 1: New York City or you live in Miami, or you

808
00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:21,520
Speaker 1: live in Los Angeles, or wherever the heck it is

809
00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:23,719
Speaker 1: on the coast, that at some point you're going to

810
00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:28,560
Speaker 1: be inundated by rising waters. It is incredible several things.

811
00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:32,880
Speaker 1: First of all, the prices of real estate on coastal

812
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:37,840
Speaker 1: communities continues to skyrocket everywhere in the entire United States.

813
00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:41,640
Speaker 1: So even if you were let's pretend that everybody else

814
00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:46,120
Speaker 1: thought that climate change was real, you would see prices

815
00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:48,919
Speaker 1: collapsing right on the waterfront.

816
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:52,880
Speaker 2: Instead, they are skyrocket. Here's the other thing, Buck Malibu.

817
00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:55,200
Speaker 2: If you really thought that the.

818
00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:58,040
Speaker 1: World was going to come to an end because of

819
00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:00,040
Speaker 1: climate change, right, that it was going to be and

820
00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:03,400
Speaker 1: equally destructive, Malibu might be the worst place in America

821
00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:06,080
Speaker 1: to pay eight million dollars for a house because they

822
00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:09,160
Speaker 1: have the wildfires. As you well know, much of Malibu

823
00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:11,960
Speaker 1: got hit by the wildfires, which they tried to claim

824
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:15,399
Speaker 1: was based on climate change. But as we talked about

825
00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:19,680
Speaker 1: when it happened a year ago, actually because of American

826
00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:24,200
Speaker 1: and human ingenuity, we have limited drastically the amount of

827
00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:27,760
Speaker 1: wildfires that take place in California, which have been going

828
00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:32,240
Speaker 1: on since basically time immemorial. Because of the actual unique

829
00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:36,960
Speaker 1: geographic constraints of Malibu. But it's not even just the

830
00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:39,960
Speaker 1: rising seas, Buck, it is that you would look around

831
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:42,279
Speaker 1: and you would say, boy, this is a really dangerous

832
00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:45,879
Speaker 1: place based on wildfires caused by climate change. To buy

833
00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:49,520
Speaker 1: an eight million dollar home instead, she did it. Instead,

834
00:44:49,560 --> 00:44:51,719
Speaker 1: she did it. And you know what, she's gonna be

835
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:54,680
Speaker 1: like Bernie Sanders. Remember how Bernie was all anti homes.

836
00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:55,880
Speaker 1: How many homes does Bernie have?

837
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:56,200
Speaker 3: Now?

838
00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:59,440
Speaker 2: Like three? At least three? Yeah, at least three.

839
00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 1: Social yes, has at least three homes. Kamala now has

840
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:07,319
Speaker 1: an eight million dollar beach side manner for her and

841
00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:10,400
Speaker 1: her lovable Dougie m Hoff, he of the likes to

842
00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:15,640
Speaker 1: slap chicks standards that nobody talks about, right, And so

843
00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:18,200
Speaker 1: I hope the two of them live in wetted bliss and.

844
00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:21,400
Speaker 2: Maybe Buck, maybe.

845
00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:23,799
Speaker 1: This, uh, this decision to pay eight million dollars for

846
00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:27,480
Speaker 1: this home will even more make that steak when I

847
00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:30,279
Speaker 1: put it to my mouth, even tastes better when she

848
00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:32,399
Speaker 1: runs for president in twenty twenty eight, because she's got

849
00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:32,600
Speaker 1: to pay.

850
00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:34,080
Speaker 2: I got a little out of my ski. It's a

851
00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:35,000
Speaker 2: little aggressive. Look.

852
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:37,120
Speaker 4: She's gonna get absolutely blown out and she's not gonna

853
00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:40,879
Speaker 4: be the nominee. But my my, she's not even gonna

854
00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:45,239
Speaker 4: run call get it nervous. I'm I'm not gonna say that, like,

855
00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:47,799
Speaker 4: don't don't buy any real estate on Buck Island. Two

856
00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:49,640
Speaker 4: point zero On this one, guys, I may be I

857
00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:50,919
Speaker 4: may be way off on this one.

858
00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:52,239
Speaker 1: I meant to mention, by the way, as we go

859
00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:56,840
Speaker 1: to break here, I was down in the Virgin Islands

860
00:45:56,880 --> 00:46:01,000
Speaker 1: over Christmas break. There is a Buck Island there. I

861
00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:03,360
Speaker 1: saw it on the map, so it is still above

862
00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:03,759
Speaker 1: the water.

863
00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:03,920
Speaker 7: Now.

864
00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:06,520
Speaker 1: I think it's uninhabited, as one might expect given the

865
00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:09,400
Speaker 1: predictions of Buck Island, but it is still there in

866
00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:13,160
Speaker 1: the US vision Islands, beautiful yet still uninhabited. Let me

867
00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:14,719
Speaker 1: tell you all about how to save some money. If

868
00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:17,279
